Riots already breaking out in some areas of Minneapolis after an ICE involved shooting of an anti ICE protester who ran into federal law enforcement officer with her car when she was surrounded by cops. You got all kinds of things here getting messy and crazy. Lydia Moynihan joins us now. She's a New York Post columnist. So let's start with this. The mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, who I think is one of the worst mayors, perhaps the worst mayor in the country, maybe even worse than Mom Donnie. We'll see. He is saying that ICE needs to get the F out of his city. So he is a petulant child throwing profanity around and weighing in on this. It seems pretty prematurely.
- [01:01]
C
Is it his city? To me, it seems like it's very much a Somalian run city. And he serves at their pleasure. Whether it's eating food that you can just tell from watching his face he finds disgusting.
- [01:14]
B
I saw that.
- [01:14]
C
Speaking in their language. Yeah, Yeah. I kind of feel like he isn't really his city. Look, this is such a, a tragedy and was so entirely preventable and predictable because over the last golly, I mean, it's been a year essentially since Trump took office. All we have heard is the demonization of ice.
- [01:38]
A
We've heard them likened to Hitler and Nazis and I mean, the crystal mocked analogy. Like, I'm so tired of those analogies. Can somebody please find a different historical period to liken things to, like, be a little more creative.
- [01:54]
C
And this has been so encouraged. And of course this was going to.
- [01:59]
A
Be inevitable that these protesters are encouraged.
- [02:03]
C
And told to f ICE and f the feds and they're going to be encouraged to be violent. And this is just an inevitable thing when people are attacking ICE officers, driving cars, cars essentially into them. This is unfortunately going to happen and it's a tragedy and it's preventable and it's going to be interesting. I mean, Minnesota was obviously ground zero for everything with the BLM riots and.
- [02:31]
A
Obviously the killing of George Floyd. And it's going to be fascinating to see is this sort of giving permission now to everyone to riot and to loot and to burn. And that's the fallout we're going to.
- [02:42]
B
Oh, yeah. Tonight I'm fascinated to see how many people who were expressing their outrage about January 6th, that riot a day ago, and now going into what's happening in Minneapolis. We may be seeing the same, I mean, the exact same people talking about how this is the voice of the voiceless and this is what happens when oppression re, you know, finds its comeuppance or whatever. I don't know. So they'll come up with some.
- [03:10]
C
The permission structures that are. That are ranted.
- [03:13]
B
Yeah, they're going to figure out some.
- [03:15]
A
Way about that, about that analogy. Because you're right. Yesterday there was so much love for cops when you turned on any sort of mainstream media show or looked at the media and they talked about how the cops were perfect on January 6th, and they were just trying to uphold law and order, and no one seemed to care about the fact that Ashlee Babbitt was shot and killed.
- [03:39]
C
They're very defensive of that, saying, oh, you know, the cops are on the right. They're trying to maintain order. And then as soon as it's not January 6th, as soon as now, it's actually ICE agents trying to enforce the law. They're, of course, vilified and the bad guy. So it's been interesting to watch that sort of one for a day. We suspended attacks on the cops, but that has all been forgotten now that it's January 7th.
- [04:01]
B
Yeah. The only widespread support I've ever seen for federal law enforcement from Democrats was. Was to use federal law enforcement in the process of going after Trump supporters. That's the. It's amazing how that there's a lot of federal law enforcement agencies out there. And the only time I've ever seen Democrats really mobilize behind any federal law enforcement entity was when it was arresting their political opponents and throwing them in prison and doing all kinds of things that we've talked about a lot here on the show. But nonetheless, it is, it is troubling to see Tim Walls also weighing in on this one. I gotta say, this is the guy whose political career is pretty much coming to a screeching. Well, I shouldn't say screeching call because he'll finish out his term, but it's not going anywhere beyond this. After being the VP candidate, he's definitely not running again in the next election cycle. He's not running for governor again because if they can get away with billions of dollars for the Somali leering center on your watch, that's a problem. I would think that's a problem.
- [05:02]
C
Yeah. I think you're right.
- [05:03]
A
This, this to me seems to indicate that the fraud goes far deeper than we have any understanding of. For him to, on his own, just volunteer not to run Again, when the man clearly loves being empowered, loves being relevant. If you remember, before he was Kamala's.
- [05:20]
C
Running mate, he was on all of the Sunday shows on cable news, coined the phrase that J.D. vance and Trump were weird. So he likes being in the national eye and being relevant. So for him to sort of willingly step away from that makes me think that we have not yet begun to discover all of the fraud. And right now there's still a lot of reporting that needs to be done. But questions about what an Ilya Omar know, when did she know it? And I think we're going to start having those questions about Tim Waltz as well, because you follow the money trail. People were getting really rich from this. And it wasn't just terrorists in Somalia, it was also people in Minnesota. And so I can imagine in the.
- [05:59]
A
Coming weeks that we're going to, we're.
- [06:01]
C
Going to see a lot of bad stuff coming out about and maybe donations he's accepted, etc. Etc.
- [06:07]
B
I want to throw something of a red pill into this conversation and just.
- [06:11]
C
Conversation is a red pill.
- [06:13]
B
Well, that's true, but I'm spiced in and up a little bit here. I think that everyone needs to understand as they observe the Somali fraud thing in Minnesota and we're going to talk about Greenland here in a second and whether Lydia is going to accept the Trump administration post as empress of Greenland if in fact we do seize this territory from the Danes in retribution for what the Vikings did a thousand years ago. But we'll get there in a second. I have to say, the situation that plays out in Somalia, everyone has to, I'm sorry, in Minnesota, not in Somalia.
- [06:47]
A
Same thing.
- [06:47]
B
At this point in Minnesota, the situation, I think Democrats in that state may not say this out loud. I don't think it bothers them that there is all this fraud, actually. I think that they view because they're so convinced that the problems of Somalia are induced by America and there's so much racism against Somalis who are desperate to come here somehow a lot of racism, but they really want to be here that I think that a lot of, a lot of people in Tim Walsh's Minnesota are fine with what was going on here because it's going to the Somali community. It's redistribution of wealth. I don't think they're outraged about it at all.
- [07:24]
A
It's reparations on a grand scale.
- [07:27]
C
No, I, I, this is not necessarily.
- [07:29]
A
Indicative of every single person, but I.
- [07:32]
C
Have seen so many, like man on.
- [07:33]
A
The street interviews, videos from people posting that they love the Somalian community, and that they're totally fine with it. And this is being blown out of proportion. And there are like, these white crazy women are so defensive of it. And so, yeah, I've been seeing a lot of these videos, and you make a good. A good point that people don't seem to care.
- [07:54]
C
And it's interesting because there is this.
- [07:57]
A
Sort of blind trust in government. You know, they hate Trump, they hate the Republicans, but, like, they, as an entity like government and trust that it's just doing the right thing with our money. And I also think it's so interesting, too, just like the way that we talk about these numbers because we're like $37 trillion in debt. So it kind of sounds like, oh.
- [08:18]
C
8 billion, 9 billion. Like, what is that?
- [08:20]
A
I think people are quick to sort.
- [08:21]
C
Of slough it off. But, like, bear in mind, I mean, if we discover more and more, like, we don't need to raise taxes, like.
- [08:28]
A
We need to allocate them well. But I think you're totally right that.
- [08:32]
C
A lot of people just don't seem to care.
- [08:34]
A
And the only reason.
- [08:35]
B
No, no, I think they think it's. It's worse than. I think that they think that this is a good thing. And if it wasn't exposed as criminal, they are happy that the 100, and whatever thousand Somalis in Minneapolis that members. I know it's not all of them, obviously, it's. But people within that community that this money was kind of being washed into that community. I think that a lot of Democrats, a lot of people vote for. For Jacob Frey in Minneapolis are like, yeah, I think it's good we should be giving them more money.
- [09:05]
A
No, I definitely think there is that very vocal and very radical group of people. But I would also say, I imagine that there's a lot of, like, people.
- [09:14]
C
Who are just minding their own business who don't know that this is going on. Because the mainstream media, the only reason that there's been any coverage of it.
- [09:21]
A
Is because they're framing Nick Shirley and people trying to expose the fraud as racists.
- [09:26]
C
So I think there's definitely a subset, as you're saying, that feels this is justified, that feels right.
- [09:32]
A
This we've taken and we've stolen as imperialists from this community.
- [09:37]
C
And it's right that we're redistributing wealth. I think a lot of people also don't really understand.
- [09:42]
B
So I'm basically jumping ahead, you know, that scale that the left always operates on or those steps of it's not happening. It's only happening a little. It is happening and it's a good thing. You know, this is the way, this is the way that the media, this is the way they, we're at the, it's, it's only happening a little is where we are now. And that's why they're saying, oh, it's racist. Because the implication here is like, it's a broader thing. But as this is more exposed and we see, and that is overwhelmingly within the Somali immigrant community in Minneapolis, then I'm saying you'll see the true, their true colors here. The supporters of all this stuff. The Democrat base in Minnesota and really nationwide is. Yeah, well, like the Somalis that got this money, a lot of them needed it. So what's the, what's the big.
- [10:28]
C
It's happening and it's a good thing.
- [10:29]
B
It's a good thing.
- [10:30]
C
You're right.
- [10:30]
B
Yes.
- [10:31]
C
So they're going to have to find some sort of argument for why fraud is good.
- [10:36]
B
Speaking of, speaking of. It's happening. It's a good thing. I got, I got to move us to Greenland here. Trump, Rubio, literally or figuratively. They're, they're. Well, there we go. I hear it's a little cold, but they, they are. And I'm in, I live in Miami beach now, so I'm not into the cold thing anymore. I do not do the cold thing. Yeah. By the way, all right wing pundits need to move to Florida, Texas or Tennessee. This is crazy talk. To stay in New York. That's a whole other conversation. The, the, and I voted Florida. Of all three of those. That's what I think people should do. The reality of buying Greenland, I don't know why people think this is crazy. People act like this is crazy. Why is it we've bought so much, so much of America was purchased via agreement as a land deal.
- [11:18]
C
Right.
- [11:19]
B
In fact, most of America was.
- [11:22]
C
Right. No. And since, I mean, since the 1800s, actually, there's been a push to acquire Greenland. Williams William Seward, who bought Alaska for the US Said, I also want Greenland. Harry Truman wanted to get Greenland. So this has been something that people have been looking at for a long time. And geographically, obviously, it's really important. We hear constantly that Trump doesn't care about fighting Russia. This, this is actually a really strategic location. It's in the Arctic Circle and we're also seeing China already. There's this whole program. They have sort of part of their Silk Road initiative. They'd like a polar Silk Road initiative to get more access to The Arctic Circle. So this would be a way to sort of deter that. And this land also has all of these rare earth minerals that we really don't have in the US it's also going to be a great place for us to launch rockets. We need a lot more data centers. And it's naturally, as you mentioned, very cool. So it's the perfect location for this. And, you know, I'm curious to see, like, we're not, I don't. We're not going to go in and just grab it by force. But I think a lot of people. There's only been a couple of polls done about what the Greenlandic people want. I would imagine they would want to.
- [12:30]
A
Be part of the U.S. like, the.
- [12:32]
C
U.S. is a great place to be part of.
- [12:33]
B
Yeah, Well, I think, first of all, I mean, look what we've done for certain other small minority communities in this country. I mean, we could set Greenland up with some crazy casinos and they'd be making money hand over fist. Right. I mean, there's all sorts of things that we could do.
- [12:47]
C
Daycare centers in Greenland.
- [12:49]
B
Daycare centers in Greenland. We just shovel money to them, pretend that they're running their own leering. They're running their own leering centers in Greenland. I mean, there's so many things that I think could be done. So this should be an offer that I believe is at least able to be heard out. And the funniest part to me is that people think that this is inherently crazy. Like, why is it crazy? The Danes people say, oh, well, they're Danish citizens. I say, first of all, these are essentially like Inuit people. They're not, they're not ethnically. It's not like the Vikings descendants live on Greenland. The communities overwhelmingly, I mean, there's some Danes there, but it's really people who you would say, oh, they look like Eskimos in our country. Like, that's actually the indigenous population that lives there. And so why do they. You know, they should be able to choose and we should be able to make them an offer they can't refuse if we want to. So I just see this as very straightforward. I don't know why people think it's so crazy.
- [13:42]
C
I'm. Well, I think part of the reason too, that people don't like it is a lot of Democrats just kind of don't want to see America succeed. Like, I'm very bullish on American expansion if it benefits us, and it's certainly going to benefit us. I saw something that we could pay because there's only like 56,000 Greenlandic citizens. And they are. They're pretty autonomous. I know Denmark technically, you know, owns them, but they're a pretty autonomous community. We could pay each of them, like, a hundred thousand dollars, a million dollars, and it would still come in, I don't know, around the price of that we paid to the Somalian community for all the.
- [14:19]
B
Exactly. And there's trillions of dollars of natural resources that are right now undeveloped and may not go. And, you know, rare earth minerals, they're doing nobody any good in the ground. You know, there's. There are things that. That we could actually leverage here that make a lot of sense. All right, that one. And then to close us out here, Venezuela. The operation was an incredible tactical success, strategically. Is this amazing? Is this going to be one of the best moves Trump has ever made on foreign policy? Are you worried that this is going to turn into, like, Baghdad circa 2004?
- [14:50]
A
Oh, God, no. I mean, you would be able to speak to that much better than I. But, no, I actually. I felt so much patriotism over the last few days, more than I think I felt in.
- [15:00]
C
In quite some time, because we do.
- [15:02]
A
Have the best military in the world, and it's amazing to see it in practice.
- [15:06]
C
And I think it's just made me.
- [15:08]
A
So proud to be an American as well, because it's like we are the most powerful nation in the world. Thank God, Right? When we're powerful, the world is safer, is more peaceful. And I also think, look, the left keeps talking about lawlessness, and we didn't obey international law. If you want to talk about lawfulness, we literally read Maduro his Miranda rights, were extraditing him to stand trial in the US That's a pretty lawful thing, but I just feel very inspired by America's power and really proud to see it in action.
