I'm not 177 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 5: even really worried about it, and it just puts it around, 178 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 5: you know, and put the clothes on, get some food ready, 179 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 5: and open the grosge door. 180 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 2: I was like, wait a minute, there's three inches of 181 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: snow on my driveway. 182 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 3: Well, we may have had two, but when I kind 183 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 3: of kicked to see how deep it was, it was 184 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 3: truly that Champagne povern. 185 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 5: It was super just like so I actually took a 186 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 5: broom and drop about that for a second. I was like, 187 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 5: better just get the shovel anyway. I just I just 188 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 5: swept it off, quick shovel job. But it's just like 189 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 5: I wasn't expected if I knew it was going to snow, 190 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 5: So it surely is my own fault. If I known 191 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 5: it was going to snow, I would have, you know, 192 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 5: hurried my ass up and shoveled and been my version 193 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 5: of on time today, But no, I was my version 194 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 5: of about fifteen minutes late. 195 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 4: When have you ever heard hurried your ass up? 196 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: Oh? 197 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 4: I know when you hear when you hear Brad?

Yeah, all right, 203 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 3: can we can't? There's there's no seg here. Kit are 204 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 3: you Do you know any of the history of the relationship. 205 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 4: Between Greenland and Denmark? I do not. 206 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 3: Well, guess what we have a history lesson today. We're 207 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 3: having a history lesson now that this is why you 208 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 3: came in so great. There is a lot of talk 209 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 3: about in fact, Jack General Jack Keane, who's one of 210 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 3: the Fox News contributors who have a great deal of 211 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 3: respect for my meeting with a couple of times. He's 212 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 3: an incredibly smart He's a great brilliant military strategist, and 213 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 3: I like the way he explains people, explains to civilians 214 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 3: on Fox News why he agrees or disagrees and he 215 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 3: doesn't always agree with Trump, but why he agrees or 216 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 3: disagrees with particular strategies. 217 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 4: And a comment that he made. 218 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 3: Today about Greenland was he went through very briefly but 219 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 3: just essentially, that eight different presidents have in some way 220 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 3: or another allowed the I know this is I'm going 221 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 3: to say something about Iran, have allowed the Mollahs and 222 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 3: the Iatolas and everybody in Iran to just do what 223 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 3: they want to do. 224 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 4: He says. 225 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 3: But those same presidents have all in one form or another, 226 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 3: either publicly or privately, also expressed an interest in doing 227 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 3: something about Greenland because they know that Greenland. They just know, 228 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 3: like whether you've you know, whether you whether you're Bill Clinton, 229 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 3: you're Barack Obama, or your George H. Or George H. W. 230 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 3: Bush would have already known. Obviously Reagan probably knew, but 231 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 3: any of those presidents always knew the strategic importance of Greenland, 232 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 3: but nobody ever did anything about it because it was 233 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 3: just man, Well, we got NATO and nobody cares. But 234 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 3: I think what's happened and that Jack Keane didn't go 235 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 3: into this as much as I might in a minute, 236 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 3: But all of those presidents, including going back, say to Obama. 237 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 3: I think it stopped with Trump. One point zero is 238 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 3: that NATO and the Europeans have really fallen on hard times, 239 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 3: and most of the NATO defenses are has really fallen 240 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 3: on the United States. Everything seems to be falling on 241 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 3: this country. And Trump sees that as an opportunity when 242 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 3: the Europeans are in this weak position, to try to 243 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 3: do something. Now, I've heard, you know, and Trump trolls people. 244 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 3: You know that, and I know that when he says 245 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 3: that we know we can do this either the easy 246 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 3: way or the hard way, well we all know they 247 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 3: can be done the easy or the hard way. And 248 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 3: that Trump doesn't really care. I really think he's just so. 249 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 3: Here's what the left would tell you always had a stroke, 250 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 3: He's he's too old, he's demented. You know, all the 251 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 3: same stuff that they would say that we said about Biden, 252 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 3: except the difference between what we say said about Biden 253 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 3: what they say about Trump is what we see and 254 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 3: what we see now I know he's I know that 255 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,599 Speaker 3: Trump has closed his eyes and perhaps dozed off a 256 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 3: little bit in the meeting. 257 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 4: Much, you know, like. 258 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 3: You know, Christ says to us he is without sim 259 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 3: so you know, you throw the first stone. Well, I 260 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 3: would just say, he who has never fallen asleep in 261 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 3: a boring manager's meeting or any other sort of meeting, Yeah, 262 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 3: you shut up and sit down because you know you 263 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 3: have and particularly if you've had, like you know, a 264 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 3: couple of cheeseburgers for lunch. No matter how many diet 265 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 3: coachs you get to, you know, suck down that caffeine. 266 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 3: The cheeseburgers and the carbs are going to put you 267 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 3: to sleep, regardless of the caffeine. So yeah, Trump's wwably 268 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 3: falling asleep. But we see him all the other times. 269 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 3: You think back about how little we saw Biden. We 270 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 3: see Trump every single day, every single day. But I 271 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 3: think he understands strategically that if we're going to do 272 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 3: something with Greenland. 273 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 4: Now is the time. 274 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 3: I don't even know who said something, but somebody over 275 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: the weekend made some casual remark. Not somebody who knew, 276 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 3: somebody in my little sphere of influence. One of my 277 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 3: friends made some comment about, well, you know, Greenland. Greenlanders 278 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 3: have really suffered under the Danes, and I I kind 279 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 3: of looked at him, like, I don't know the story. 280 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 3: He treats me like I treat him, and he goes, well, 281 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 3: maybe I ought to go look up. So I did, and 282 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 3: I find out the Greenlanders. Greenlanders, they truly have experienced 283 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 3: a long arc of Danish colonial control. And when I 284 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 3: the more I put together these bullet points about what 285 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 3: I want to tell you, the word colonial and colonists 286 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 3: comes up more often than not. It was funny it 287 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 3: Yet on Saturday I talked about cooperation in terms of 288 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 3: Adam Smith's writings on capitalism and free markets and how 289 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 3: cooperation with freedom and trust really is what has made 290 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 3: America grow and be as prosperous as we are, and 291 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 3: that that cooperation is going away. And so the word 292 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 3: cooperation was used a lot during the course of an 293 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 3: hour discussion about Adam Smith. I woke up to a 294 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 3: text message this morning that said or I just thought 295 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 3: it was funny anyway. The text said something, boy, I 296 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 3: want to have a bunch of text coan mend what 297 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 3: are we doing here? Something about I had said the 298 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 3: word cooperation at least a dozen times during that hour, 299 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 3: and I thought, well, yeah, because that's that was the topic, cooperation. 300 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 3: So the topic now is colonialism colonists. So you might 301 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 3: hear a lot about that. And it's not that I'm 302 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 3: just trying to be a jerk. It's just that, well, 303 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 3: this is the story. They're even twentieth and to some degree, well, 304 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 3: let's say twenty. I don't know that there's any twenty 305 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 3: first century, but a lot of twentieth century policies that 306 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 3: did some really horrible things. The Danes separated the Inuit 307 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 3: children from their families. They subjected thousands of women and 308 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 3: girls to nonconsensual birth control, even sterilization. Now, I know 309 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 3: we have a history. Are you doing some stupid stuff 310 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 3: like this in our country too? But why are we 311 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 3: ignoring Denmark? I mean, I say anything about the Danes? 312 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 3: Oh they're Danish? Have you did you have a Danish 313 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 3: for breakfast? 314 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: No? 315 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 3: Denmark's so called oversight has from the twentieth to the 316 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 3: twenty first century probably shifted from outright colonial rule to 317 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 3: a quasi modern self rule arrangement, arrangement in which Greenland 318 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 3: runs most internal affairs but Copenhagen the capital of Denmark. 319 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 3: But Copenhagen still controls controls their foreign policy, controls their security, 320 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 3: their currency, and almost all of their financial framework. All 321 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 3: the while, all these multiple US presidents, particularly Harry S. 322 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 3: Truman and Donald J. Trump have always explored or pursued 323 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: our acquisition. 324 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 4: Of the island. 325 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 3: A missionary body the names of Hans Egity, I'm not 326 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 3: sure how you pronounce it, had an expedition all the 327 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 3: way back in seventeen twenty one, and that's conventionally marked 328 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 3: as the start of formal Danish colonization. Well, we didn't 329 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 3: put up with that, did we. We colonization, We had 330 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 3: nothing to do with that. These poor Inuits are still 331 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 3: suffering under the colonization of the Danes. 332 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 4: Now. Ultimately they integrated Greenland into. 333 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 3: The Danish Kingdom as a country or a county, though 334 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 3: the nineteen fifty three Danish constitutional changes that's the status 335 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 3: of the un recognized only back. 336 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 4: In nineteen fifty four. 337 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 3: In practice, this so called integration increased it sounds like 338 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 3: seventeen seventy six. It increased Danish administrative presence, It expanded 339 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 3: Danish language schooling. It deepened the economic dependence on Copenhagen. 340 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: Those fifty three thousand people or whatever it is that 341 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 3: live in Greenland that are true Greenlanders in the inu 342 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 3: Onites are totally dependent upon the Dames. Now you look 343 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 3: around all of the countries in the world. If you 344 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 3: were a small country and you had to be totally 345 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 3: dependent upon any other country in the world, why would 346 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 3: you pick Denmark? 347 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 4: Why would you take Are we doing Breakstreen on a holiday? Yeah? 348 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 4: Break there we are? Oh okay. 349 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,439 Speaker 1: When you do your tax returns this year, look at 350 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: the total tax you paid and think about at least 351 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: ten percent, maybe even twenty percent of your taxes go 352 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: completely for fraudulent activities and bes stuff. How much stronger 353 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: would the American economy be if we could get rid 354 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: of all this fraud? How much richer would you be? 355 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: What could you buy with that extra money? I know 356 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: a couple of things I'd like, Why do. 357 00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 3: You play talk backs that are so irrational, over the top. 358 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 3: Those are the crazies out there. They want to keep 359 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 3: more of their own money. Who are those people? 360 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 2: I like to piss you off? 361 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 3: I mean to me, Fraud and all of this just 362 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 3: that's become that's the American dream, right, All is normal, 363 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 3: All is normal, that's right. And then Kathy comes in 364 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 3: and tells us this news about there was a gigantic, 365 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 3: you know explosion on the Sun and we're going to 366 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 3: have the you know, the northern lights are going to 367 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 3: come down. But what I'm thinking about is how much 368 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 3: electronic disturbances are we going to have? How many radio transmissions, 369 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,239 Speaker 3: how many things are going to be disrupted over and 370 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 3: caused by something over which if we would only have 371 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 3: a like a sun spot policy to prevent that from happening. 372 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 2: Michael, shut up, enjoy the pretty lights. 373 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 3: Well, if we control, if we can control the climate, 374 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 3: why can't we control the one thing that probably affects 375 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 3: the climate as much, if not more, than anything else. 376 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 3: And see we're so we're gonna sit here and just 377 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: oh oh, look at the beautiful lights. Meanwhile, you're your 378 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 3: toaster is fried. First world problems. 379 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 5: The guest stoves on the frieze. 380 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 3: Oh gee, And then you can tell us a holiday 381 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 3: gouven Ember ninety two, four nine. Mike, did I hear 382 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 3: you say you were watching your ex feed? I didn't 383 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 3: know you were divorced. Why are you watching her feed? 384 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 3: Is tammer cool? 385 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 4: Fat? 386 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 3: Does she watch your ex feed too? You do know 387 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 3: how creepy this is? 388 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 4: Right? 389 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 3: I'd see professional counseling if I were you. If I 390 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 3: got professional counseling, I'd probably get fired because see. 391 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 4: This is this is what they want, So this is 392 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 4: what they got. 393 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 2: They asked us to do this. 394 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 4: That's right. 395 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 3: And then you got seven to sixty seven, which is 396 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 3: actually a pretty good point with regard to the history. 397 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 3: According to Chat, well there you go, don't you notice 398 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 3: now at the bottoment says you know, CHAT, GPTGPT or 399 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 3: whatever it is you know, may give you wrong answers, 400 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 3: be sure and verify. Well are you supposed to verify with? 401 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 3: Just go to another AI platform. NATO countries are mostly 402 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 3: are all complying with their obligations. Now that's good news. 403 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 3: Some countries are still below two percent in the earlier 404 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 3: years data Spain, Italy, Belgian, Portugal, et cetera. But by 405 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 3: latest figures and projections for twenty twenty five, they have 406 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 3: either reached or are expected to reach the two percent 407 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 3: threshold under NATO's reporting standards. I think NATO Europe should 408 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 3: have asked for volunteers to fight for Ukraine. If they did, 409 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 3: I wouldn't have many would have volunteered. I'm glad they 410 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 3: are getting up to the five percent, but that doesn't 411 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 3: mean that those countries have reached the level with which 412 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 3: they could actually do anything. For example, I forget I 413 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 3: think the UK has I'm exaggerating here, but they've got 414 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 3: like two warships left and they got eighteen fighter jets. 415 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 4: So even though they may have increased. 416 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 3: To five percent, it's going to take a while to 417 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 3: you know, procure and manufacture and deliver all of those armaments. 418 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 3: So it's going to be another couple of years before 419 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 3: they get there. And their economies are still in the doldrums, 420 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 3: primarily because they spent so much money on green energy, 421 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 3: So they're all freezing their butts right now in Germany 422 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 3: and other places, and they've recognized that that doesn't work. 423 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 3: So Europe is just a screwed up mess right now, 424 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 3: totally screwed up, which is why I think that Trump 425 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 3: actually has an opportunity to do something. 426 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 4: Now I don't know what that something is going to be. 427 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 3: Does it mean that Greenland becomes a state, a territory, 428 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 3: a protectorate. Do we just reach an agreement with the 429 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 3: with the Danes or the EU or NATO or whomever 430 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 3: we have to reach an agreement with that allows us 431 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 3: to expand, not just our military presence but our business presence. 432 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 3: I want us to expand. Look, I want to those 433 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 3: whatever the number is. If it's fifty three thousand people, 434 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 3: I want them all to be wealthy. I want them 435 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 3: all to get the benefits of a country that is 436 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 3: rich in natural resources, strategically located for the national defense 437 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 3: of this country. And I want them to benefit from that. 438 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 3: I truly do. And whatever format that takes, I don't 439 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 3: really care. I just want to be able to use 440 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 3: that country to protect us, because I think it's probably 441 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 3: hard to think about a holiday after you just won, 442 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 3: you know, a playoff game that everybody's this is the 443 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 3: last thing you want to think about business time crap 444 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 3: I think about all the time. Is okay, things are 445 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 3: pretty calm today. But is this the day that the 446 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 3: Chinese come across the Taiwan Strait or they decide that 447 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: they're going to take over the Philippines, or is this 448 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 3: the day that Putin decides he's going to just go 449 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 3: ahead and go into Poland too? I mean, what I 450 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 3: happens today or tomorrow or the next day, I know, 451 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 3: I have a catastrophic way of thinking back to these Greenlanders. 452 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 3: The missionary the colonization started in seventeen twenty one, and 453 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 3: then after World War Two didn't Mark worked at the 454 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 3: United Nations so they could. 455 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 4: Preserve their hold on Greenland, ultimately. 456 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 3: Integrating them into the Danish Kingdom as a county through 457 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 3: the nineteen fifty three Danish constitutional changes that was recognized 458 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 3: formally by the UN and back in nineteen fifty four. 459 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 3: That integration, as I said, really is more of just 460 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 3: kind of a hey, we're just going to tell you 461 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 3: what to do kind of thing, kind of like you know, 462 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 3: King George used to tell us. Then in the sixties 463 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 3: there was and I was completely you know, obviously it's 464 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 3: something I just either don't remember, it wasn't taught. There 465 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 3: was an official Danish Greenlandic inquiry that confirmed that back 466 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 3: in the sixties, the Danish state, the Danes, carried out 467 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 3: a program of forced sterilization and birth control interventions on 468 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,959 Speaker 3: Greenlandic women and girls, some as young as twelve years old, 469 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 3: most often without informed consent. There are records documenting at 470 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 3: least four hundred and ten such cases, and then a 471 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 3: broader IUD campaign that affected thousands of women. 472 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 4: Again, I'd like to. 473 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 3: Ask, we're the National Organization of Women where all the 474 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:28,239 Speaker 3: women's rights groups forced enter and uterine devices, you know, 475 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 3: shoved up women seriously between I say, nineteen sixty six 476 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 3: nineteen nineteen seventy, about almost five thousand in women and 477 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 3: teenage girls had inter uterine devices inserted without their knowledge 478 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 3: or genuine consent, in what later investigations described as a 479 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 3: has this sound doesn't this sound typical European? As a 480 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 3: population control effort linked to the Danes budget problems and 481 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 3: concerns about welfare costs. Oh why why don't we just 482 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 3: propose that here? What if we just had can you 483 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 3: imagine the uproar? Hey, we ought to just take poor 484 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 3: people to sterilize them. Well, let's just take poor people 485 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 3: poorly in particular, and let's just take IUDs and just 486 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 3: you know, hey, you got to come in for your 487 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 3: check up, and you know while the obgi in guy's 488 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 3: doing this thing or she's doing her thing. Oh oo, 489 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 3: just stinking IUD there. Now, that was a part of 490 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 3: a broader pattern of truly paternalistic governance where these Danes 491 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 3: and the doctors held near complete total authority in health 492 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 3: and social services, and all the green landing communities had 493 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 3: they didn't have any avenues to challenge. 494 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 4: They quite frankly probably didn't even understand what was happening. 495 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 4: To them. 496 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 3: Now, after the integration occurred in nineteen fifty three, disapproved 497 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 3: by the UN in nineteen fifty four, Denmark then decided, 498 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 3: we haven't done enough. Let's expand our network of boarding 499 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 3: and Danish language schools, and we'll use that to systematically 500 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 3: separate many Greenlandic children, especially from the remote communities, from 501 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 3: their families for extended periods. Now, what do you think 502 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 3: the purpose of that was? We ought to know, because 503 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 3: we did essentially the same thing here, and we still get, 504 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 3: you know, vilified for it, even though I think we 505 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 3: have done our penance and we have corrected them through 506 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 3: treaties and sovereignty and recognition of Hey, maybe how we 507 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 3: treated you know, the Indians was just not quite up 508 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 3: to par. 509 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 4: Well. 510 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 3: The schooling and the relocation programs, all these policies back 511 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 3: in the fifties were trying to and remember this is 512 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 3: the fifties we're all talking about. The early nineteen hundreds 513 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 3: or the late eighteen hundreds, all those policies were aimed 514 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 3: to assimilate the Inuit children into the Danish language and culture, 515 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 3: and in practice often marginalized. 516 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,479 Speaker 4: The and I'm not quite quite sure he had pronounced 517 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 4: this group of. 518 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 3: People, the Callusians Callusiates. I'm not sure it's K A 519 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 3: L A double L I S U T. And what 520 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 3: that did. It disrupted family structures, if we can, the 521 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 3: transmission of traditional knowledge. And it was kind of a 522 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 3: boarding school thing, kind of like they did with the 523 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 3: Indians in Canada. And yet we're supposed to think that 524 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 3: over the bad people, we're trying to make them rich 525 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 3: and independent. 526 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: Good grief, Good morning, Michael. Did you know that tapped, Eisenhower, 527 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: Andrew Johnson, and Truman all tried to buy Greenland? So 528 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: everybody just needs to chill. 529 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 2: It's teds, That's all it is. 530 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 4: What was that last part? 531 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 2: It's just what tds? 532 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 1: Oh? 533 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 3: TDS, Yes, it absolutely is. In fact, you're right, Truman 534 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 3: was the last one really try it. He seriously explored 535 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 3: purchasing Greenland after World War Two. They offered, they discussed 536 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 3: offering Denmark one hundred million dollars in gold. 537 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 4: Can you imagine what I don't have any I. 538 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 3: Think at the price of gold then gold right now 539 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 3: is trading at about four thousand, six hundred dollars some 540 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,719 Speaker 3: per ounce. I don't know why that would be worth today. 541 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 3: And at one point they even proposed trading some Alaskan 542 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 3: territory in exchange for the island. Now, why was driving 543 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 3: Truman after World War Two? Same thing driving us today, 544 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 3: the desire for Arctic air and radar bases against the 545 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 3: Soviet Union. But now it's even worse because not only 546 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 3: is it never so longer the Soviet Union, but to 547 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 3: Russia that by Vladimir Putin, who's you know, crazy guy? Well, 548 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 3: and of course chi Jing being over in Beijing, who's 549 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 3: crazy guy too. So then Trump during the first term 550 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 3: publicly floated by in Greenland as a large real estate deal, 551 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 3: you know the a the deal which was swiftly and 552 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 3: publicly rejected by both Denmark and Greenland, which insists of 553 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 3: the territories was not for sale. But after coming back 554 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 3: for Trump two point zero, he renewed that interest and 555 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 3: is now really I think, pushing it closer to reality 556 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 3: than we actually believe. Our ambassador to NATO is an 557 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 3: incredibly accomplished negotiator, and I think NATO, with the Russia 558 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 3: Ukraine war going on, understands that they'll never admit this publican. 559 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that they would 560 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 3: ever meet any of this publicly but having sat in 561 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 3: Brussels in NATO negotiating with the Russians, who we were 562 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 3: trying to get as part of a financial part of NATO, 563 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 3: which I think is when the British and the French 564 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 3: rejected it. I'm sitting across the table from the French, 565 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 3: and the British finally gets the British to agree that, yeah, 566 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 3: we ought to bring Russia into the fold with us. 567 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 3: The French are the ones that balk Of course, the 568 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 3: French ball got everything. So can you imagine now sitting 569 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 3: down with those same people knowing that their economies are 570 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 3: in a shamble, their defense defenses are in a shamble, 571 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 3: and they've got a guy that's truly serious, that is, 572 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 3: that is showing that he's realigning things in the Middle East, 573 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 3: realigning things in the Western Hemisphere, realigning things with Taiwan. 574 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 3: Although it's still you know, diplomatic or whatever it's called ambiguity, 575 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 3: we're still selling them a boatload of military equipment and armaments. 576 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 4: At the same. 577 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 3: Time that Taiwan's him a Conductive Manufacturing Corporation TESMC is 578 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 3: spending billions of dollars to build chip fabs in Arizona. 579 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 4: So he's realigning all of. 580 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 3: This stuff, and I think he's got like he doesn't minicate, 581 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 3: not every case, but like he does in many cases, 582 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 3: he's got exactly the right people in exactly the right 583 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 3: place to move this down the field a little bit. 584 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 3: And I actually think that it can be done. It 585 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 3: may what form. I have no idea, an expanded military agreement, 586 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 3: territorial agreement, whatever it might be, but I think it's 587 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 3: also been to come, not just with some sort of 588 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 3: military agreement, but I think also with business agreements, because 589 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 3: they're all the rare earth minerals. There's all the natural resources, 590 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 3: everything that's on that island that is not being exploited 591 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 3: to the benefit of the Greenlanders because the danger is 592 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 3: too stupid and incompetent. 593 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 4: To do so. 594 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 3: I think Trump might actually get it done. It's amazing 595 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 3: to live in these historical times, Isn't it? Absolutely amazing,
