Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. U.S. Interest in Greenland and National Security

(02:07–11:16)

• Media Narrative: The mainstream press claims President Trump is planning to take Greenland by force, which Grant disputes, describing it as "media spin" and emphasizing that a deal, not force, is far more likely.
• NATO Dynamics:
  • Grant presses on the point that the U.S. holds a strategic military agreement with Greenland and Denmark, dating back to the 1950s, allowing for military bases.
  • He deems Europe "very weak right now" and sees China and Russia as eyeing Greenland's "precious real estate."
• Resource Factor: Greenland's untapped natural resources are emphasized as a valuable strategic asset, possibly lessening U.S. reliance on China.
• Guest – Dr. Jeffrey Gunter (Former Ambassador, Now Congressional Candidate):
  • Asserts the U.S. is the only nation capable of ensuring Greenland's and thus America's safety, citing rising Chinese and Russian interest in the Arctic as cause for vigilance.
  • Suggests Denmark's pushback may simply be because Trump is the one proposing the deal.
  • “There’s only one country that can protect the sovereignty of Greenland, and that’s the United States. … The population is declining there. And it is essential. ... The Chinese would love to have their Northwest Passage, cruising their ships much closer ... President Trump won't tolerate it.” (08:24)

2. The Trump Economic "Miracle" and Tariff Policy

(11:16–19:02)

• Supreme Court & Tariffs: Anticipation around a Supreme Court ruling on tariffs imposed by Trump. Grant advises Trump's administration to stick with free-market principles and avoid government interventions.
  • “We don’t need gimmicky campaign, non free market ideas.” (12:35)
• Economic Performance:
  • Points out decreased inflation under Trump (current 2%) compared to Biden (6.6%) and stresses the importance of maintaining current tariffs and free-market strategies.
  • “The proof is in the pudding ... Inflation under Trump now 2% ... 6.6% under Joe Biden.” (13:21)
• Guest – E.J. Antoni (Committee to Unleash Prosperity):
  • Urges continuation of tax, regulatory, and energy reform, identifying these as the drivers of job creation and lower prices.
    • “What has made (Trump’s) agenda so successful thus far … tax reform, regulatory reform, energy reform ...” (14:40)
• Tariff Flexibility: Even if the Supreme Court undercuts current authority, Trump “has a lot of other options” for imposing tariffs using Executive tools; a nuanced approach to tariffs is critical to minimize impact on consumers (e.g., rolling back tariffs on goods like coffee and bananas was pragmatic).

3. Global Hot Spots: Iran, Venezuela, Russia, China

(19:04–26:05)

• Iran Unrest: Reports suggest regime change could be imminent; protesters continue facing lethal crackdowns.
  • Grant highlights an Iranian threat targeting President Trump, invoking his resolve:
    • “I would not threaten this man. Just listen to President Trump yesterday … ‘They better behave.’” (20:08)
• UK & Other Embassies Evacuated: Citing intelligence from Matt Tardeo, this is seen as “typical before military action”—suggesting U.S. or allied intervention may be close.
• U.S. Leverage on Russia/China:
  • U.S. seizing of gold and oil shipments is portrayed as a direct blow to the Russian and Chinese economies, disrupting schemes to evade sanctions and fund operations via Venezuela and Iran.
• Guest – Matt Tardeo (Former Green Beret, Host):
  • Outlines how U.S. actions are hitting Russia and China, especially in terms of financial flows and military capabilities.
    • “Russia and China are very worried about the United States going after their monetary system ... they’re doing it with gold and oil.” (24:13)
  • Suggests their responses (like dispatching nuclear subs for gold shipments) prove that the U.S. strategy is effective.

4. ICE, Law Enforcement, and Domestic "Protest"

(29:24–37:38)

• Tensions over ICE Enforcements:
  • Grant criticses leftist "agitators," particularly women in Minnesota and Arizona, for escalating confrontations with law enforcement, characterizing them as pawns of the Democratic/socialist agenda.
  • Contrasts non-compliant protesters with compliant citizens who simply show ID and are treated respectfully.
• Guest – Sheriff Mark Lamb (Retired, Congressional Candidate):
  • Calls anti-ICE protesters "paid agitators" engaged in "socialist communist agenda."
    • “ICE is merely enforcing the laws that Congress and Senate have made ... obstructing law enforcement is illegal.” (32:53)
  • Rebukes Senator Chuck Schumer for questioning ICE training, calling such criticism detached from reality:
    • “What does that soft body old curmudgeon know about policing? This guy’s been sucking off the teeth of the American public … for decades. ... He ought to keep his mouth shut … let us who are trained do the job.” (35:49)
  • Asserts support for Trump and law enforcement, and signals congressional run at marklam.us.

5. Free Speech, Censorship, and Imran Ahmed

(40:39–48:32)

• Profiling Imran Ahmed:
  • CEO of the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), accused of suppressing American free speech under the guise of "combating disinformation."
  • Grant characterizes Ahmed, a British citizen, as dangerous to U.S. liberties and supports Trump’s push to deport him despite a court stay.
  • “If you come from out of the country to squash the rights of Americans, you need to go.” (40:39)
• Guest – Dr. Ben Tapper (Epigenetics Director, Lawsuit Plaintiff):
  • Claims CCDH's "Disinformation Dozen" campaign sought to silence dissenting COVID voices, including himself, and describes lawsuit as essential for protecting freedom of speech.
    • “This is a lawsuit for our freedoms ... to protect our freedom of speech. We only have the rights and freedoms that we’re willing to defend.” (47:23)
  • Warns that CCDH’s UN- and Soros-linked agenda threatens American sovereignty and freedom, pointing to Agenda 2030 as a globalist encroachment.

6. Defining Scientific Truth: Gender, Pregnancy, and “Woke” Science

(50:23–54:32)

• Senate Hearing Viral Exchange:
  • Grant highlights the inability of a left-leaning doctor to answer "can men get pregnant?"—claiming this reveals absurdity of “wokeness” overriding scientific truth.
  • “They literally can’t tell you that a man cannot get pregnant. … We have gone down the road of Looney Tuneville.” (53:51)
• Clip:
  • Senator Moody presses repeatedly, asking for a yes/no on biological men getting pregnant—doctor equivocates, ultimately refusing to state a direct answer.
    • “You testified a moment ago that science and evidence should control, not politics. So let’s just test that proposition. Can men get pregnant?” – Sen. Moody at [51:35]
    • “You’re trying to reduce the complexity …” – Doctor at [53:44]

7. Bonus: Oprah & Obesity – Closing Rant

(56:05–57:18)

• Oprah Winfrey’s claim that obesity could be genetic, not solely behavioral, is dismissed by Grant as an excuse for lack of personal responsibility.
  • “I’m going to say right now that’s a load of bull corn... It’s about self-control, eating right, and doing the right things and exercise.” (56:40)
