Thank you, Bill. It is Thursday, January 8, 2026. Here's what's happening today in America. ICE agent attacked tankers, seized Greenland on the table and eat real food. It's all coming up. Then Bill's gonna be here with your message of the day. But first, an ice agent shot and killed a woman who allegedly, quote, weaponized her vehicle Wednesday morning in Minneapolis. NBC News reported that a group of people began trying to block ICE agents as they were carrying out targeted operations in Minneapolis. And in the course of this, a woman allegedly used her vehicle to attack agents. Homeland Security posted on Twitter today ice officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers. One of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them, an act of domestic terrorism. The president wrote on Truth Social. The woman screaming was obviously a professional agitator. And the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully and viciously ran over the ICE officer who seems to have shot her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it's hard to believe he's alive but is now recovering in the hospital. The woman who died was 37 years old. From Colorado, the US seized two oil tankers linked to Venezuela, including a Russian flagged oil tanker formerly known as the Bella one that's been tracked by the US Military since December. The operation was carried out by the US Coast Guard and other military assets. Russian military vessels were in the area as this happened. The US Yesterday also seized another tanker in the Caribbean. Our secretary of war said the blockade of sanctioned and illicit Venezuelan oil remains in full effect. Stephen Miller said the only maritime energy transport allowed will be that consistent with American law and national security. Secretary of State Marco Rubio told lawmakers during a classified briefing that the US Is seeking to purchase Greenland. He then told reporters that's always been the president's intent from the very beginning. This is not new. He talked about it in his first term. And he's not the first US President who has examined or looked at how we could acquire Greenland. We actually made a bid for Greenland back in 1946. It would have been $1.4 billion in today's money. RFK Jr. And Health and Human Services released new dietary guidelines, a new inverted food pyramid. The main encouragement is to limit or eliminate highly processed food and refined carbohydrates. The largest part of the pyramid. It's no longer the base of the pyramid because it's upside down, but the largest part of the pyramid has a picture of a ribeye and a chicken and broccoli, carrots and peas. And in big bold letters above the whole thing, eat real food. I'm Mike Slater. I have a podcast called Politics by Faith. You can download that anywhere you listen to podcast.
