$25@Weightwatchers.Com Donald Trump is having a catastrophic Wednesday morning. And we are now learning that on the eve of a critical meeting between Trump's advisors and the top foreign advisors from Greenland and Denmark, now the Trump regime is threatening to take over Iceland. Yep, the individual who has been nominated by Donald Trump to become the ambassador of Iceland, Billy Long. This is the way it was described last year. Last night he was joking. Iceland will become the 52nd state and I will become the governor. That's not a joke. That is yet another threat and that comes from the person that Donald Trump wants to be the ambassador to Iceland. So now not only Greenland, Iceland, Cuba, Colombia, Venezuela, Canada, Trump has said he is a predator and we know that about him. And he and his regime want to dominate and take over the entire western hemisphere while the American people suffer and can't afford things. Trump wants to get us into never ending wars. Trump has been rage posting like a lunatic this morning about taking over Greenland. Here's what he posted. The United States needs Greenland for the purpose of national security. It is vital for the golden dome that we are building. NATO should be leading the way for US to get it. If we don't, Russia or China will. And that is not going to happen militarily. Without the vast power of the United States, much of which I built during my first term and I'm now bringing to new and even higher level, NATO would not be an effective force or deterrent, not even close. They know that and so do I. Naito becomes far more formidable and effective with Greenland in the hands of the United States. Anything less than that is unacceptable. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Greenland is in the hands of NATO. Do you understand the way that NATO works if Russia or China were to attack Greenland? Articles Article 5 says that all of the NATO countries, including the United States, would militarily defend Greenland. The United States has treaties with Denmark going back a very long time. The United States has treaties with Greenland. The United States can build and expand upon the existing military base that exists in Greenland. This is just Donald Trump's desire to be a predator and to take over things. And as his new ambassador to Iceland is joking about taking over Iceland now, the Trump regime wants to conquer and has this imperial vision of what the United States should be while the American people are being left behind. Did you know that foreclosure rates this year are up 23 to 25% year over year? Do you know credit card delinquencies right now are at basically all time highs? And do you know that most Americans are being, you know, from watching it, are psychologically tortured, living paycheck to paycheck if they're lucky enough to get a paycheck. And so while Trump posts things, everything he says has consequences like this. France has now announced it will open up its consulate in Greenland in February in order to counter threats from the United States. And a French Foreign Ministry official specifically said this is a geostrategic decision aimed at countering the expansionist ambitions expressed by the United States president. And France wants to make sure that it has a presence there, both in terms of diplomatic and military, to counter if the United States intends to invade Europe, will defend Greenland and go to war with the United States. The fact that there is now a bill working its way through Congress called the Save NATO act, which would basically prevent any funds that go to the military to be used for an invasion against a NATO member, just shows you that Moscow and Beijing must absolutely just be laughing at how weak Donald Trump has made the United States. And as I've said, every action has consequences. So when Donald Trump threatens Canada and says 51st state this and we're going to destroy Canada and make Canada suffer. Well, Canada elects the top banker in the world, Prime Minister Carney, who actually is playing four dimensional chess while Donald Trump plays stupid mar a lago checkers. And Prime Minister Carney has been making alliances across the globe. And now he's doing a landmark four day visit to China. He'll be meeting with Xi Jinping and other top officials in China. And now China is likely going to be buying more oil from Canada, especially if the United States intends to cut it off from Venezuela. And also now China may sell its electric vehicles into Canada and may remove some of its trade barriers to Canada, like canola and other products from Canada. And now Canada will start trading with Beijing and views China as a more reliable trading partner and more stable for the global order than the United States. And how do you think that's gonna impact American auto workers and American car companies when Canada starts to bring in electric vehicles from China and they start to flood that market? How do you think that's gonna work? And by the way, I think there is a broader point to make about Donald Trump giving the middle finger and saying F you, F you to an auto worker at that Ford factory in Detroit that we all know about right now. This was an independent voter, not a Democrat, not a Republican. But the guy said that he voted for Republicans before. He's not a Trump guy, but he was shouting out Trump 60ft away from him. You're a pedophile protector. You're a pedophile protector. Because the Trump regime continues to protect pedophiles, to cover up the largest sex trafficking ring in world history by not releasing the Epstein files. And so Trump gives a middle finger to a working class guy in Detroit. Can, could you imagine if a Democratic president gave the middle finger to a auto worker in Detroit while that Democratic president was covering up the largest child sex trafficking ring? I mean, this is why corporate news has been a complete, abject failure. You want me to give you another exhibit of corporate news becoming a complete, abject failure? Here's what CBS News reports this morning. Breaking news, they go. The ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Good, Jonathan Ross, suffered internal bleeding to the torso following the incident, according to two U.S. officials briefed on his medical condition. Okay, we all saw the video. Okay? That guy was not hit by the vehicle, and he was certainly not hit in a way that would cause internal bleeding. Unless the guy, in my opinion, like, hit himself or fell sometime after. That's not what was in the video. So stop being regime media and just putting out their regime Propaganda and then saying, according to two U.S. officials briefed on his medical condition, it's just complete and utter bs And I think it's just a sad state of America that we have regime media that parrots all this stuff. While the maniac continues to post. Here's what he just posted while I was doing this video. NATO tell Denmark to get them out of here now. Two dog sleds won't do it. Only the USA can. The hell's the guy even talking about? I mean, he's truly a lunatic. And what was their plan? We're going to decouple the United States from China. Remember that's what they said a year ago. And we're going to really bring China to its knees and make China pay with our trade policies. Okay, well, guess what? What we've now learned is that China's trade surplus reaches reacher reaches a record high, defying expectations of tariff driven slowdown. China reported a $1.19 trillion surplus in 2025 with exports growing 5.5%. So much for tariffs reigning in China. If anything, it's made the rest of the world stronger. The rest of the world growing faster than the United States and the United States weaker than ever. But you know, you have Donald Trump sycophants like congressmember Carlos Jimenez, he goes on state regime media this morning and he goes, the United States has demonstrated to people around the world we can touch you anywhere, anytime at our choosing, we will touch you again. This is a predator regime that covers up for child sex predators and they are predators in every aspect of their life. Let's play this clip right here.
- [10:37]
D
It won't be boots on the ground, but you know, the United States has demonstrated to the people around the world that we can touch you anywhere at any time of our choosing. And when the President is saying that he's going to have their back, I would, I would heed his words. This president, when he makes statements like that, usually follows up. And so when he's saying to the protesters, keep on protesting because we're going to have your back, I believe this President is going to have their back.

B
Yeah, I believe it too.

To mention as well is that Donald Trump promised that he would be helping out the protesters in Iran. There are reports that at the low end, the mass murder of protesters in Iran are likely in the thousands. On the high end, 12,000 20,000 Iranians were potentially slaughtered protesting the Ayatollah and the current regime in Iran. Donald Trump back on January 2 said the United States will come in guns ablazing immediately if Iran dare kills one protester. That was Trump's post. Well, they've killed thousands. Could be more than 20, 20,000, but definitely thousands. Well guess what, the United States doesn't have military capabilities anymore of a significant nature in the region like we once did, we moved all of our capabilities or a large part of those capabilities in the Caribbean we moved them near Venezuela in order to kidnap Maduro and then install Maduro's sidekick, Delsey Rodriguez and the enforcer in the Maduro regime, Deodatos Cabello, who then bring in the roving gangs which call themselves collectee in Venezuela that are suppressing the people and it's a perpetuation of the authoritarian regime right there. So that's why we moved all of our resources. What are you, like a child playing the game of war? To European officials speaking on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive information, said their countries were asked by the Trump administration Monday to share intelligence on possible targets with Iran. The administration right now, quote, just doesn't have the assets in the region to do a full kinetic strike without risking retaliation, said the person familiar with the administration's thinking. We had to pull a lot of our assets out of CENTCOM to support Venezuela, as Lauren Rosen and Alex Ward, both right, just think about that. We are now begging European allies for help about targets to strike in Iran while threatening Europe by invading Greenland. That is what the Trump regime is doing right now. One thing to point out on the domestic front as well. We learned from the Washington Post scoop this morning that the FBI has executed a search warrant at a Washington Post reporter's home. This Washington Post reporter, Hannah Nathan Sin, was doing and is doing an incredible job. She's the one who has been referred to as the government whisperer. All the federal government whistleblowers were going to her and they were providing her with all of the information about Donald Trump. Well, let me just read you what it says because I want to give. I want to let. Hannah Nathan sends voice shine. At 11:30pm two hours past our normal bedtime, my fiance laid his hand on my wrist. You've got to stop, he said. Stop answering them. While he was speaking, I felt my iPhone buzz twice. Another two messages from yet more federal workers who wanted to tell me how Donald Trump was rewriting their workplace policies, firing their colleagues, or transforming their agency's missions. It was Valentine's Day weekend, frigid outside, and the government was busy firing tens of thousands of probationary employees for performance without evidence. Less than two weeks earlier, I had clicked to Reddit, hoping to check out a tip I no longer remember. My colleague, a veteran federal affairs reporter, Lisa Rain had suggested sharing my contact information in the Reddit Fed News, a forum where some 300,000 federal employees were posting every few seconds to commiserate about their fates under a president determined to downsize the bureaucracy. Expecting little feeling out of my depth, I was an education reporter. I wrote that I wanted to speak with anyone willing to chat. Then I listed my signal. One reporter's effort to show how Trump was transforming government brought her 1,169 news sources. And these are major stories that she broke. And now the FBI executed a search warrant of her home. They took her devices, they seized her phone, two laptops and a Garmin watch. One of the laptops was her personal computer. The other was a Washington Post issued laptop. They claimed they were conducting an investigation into somebody who took highly sensitive documents from the government or classified documents. They said that the reporter wasn't a direct target of the investigation, but that the reporter may have been in contact with somebody the government arrested who took classified information from the government. So that's where we're at with that right now. I'll share this with you. Finally, MAGA Mike Johnson going on state regime media this morning saying, you know, ICE just has to do its job. Do you know what ICE is called? It's called Immigration and Customs Enforcement. So why would anybody object to that? Because they're not doing Immigration Customs Enforcement. MAGA Mike. They're doing terrorism. They're terrorizing our cities. They've invaded. They are attacking our schools and our hospitals and our places of worship and our community centers and our restaurants. They are gassing us. They are shooting pepper spray bullets. They are attacking peaceful protesters. They are ripping families apart. That's why MAGA Mike is that hard for your MAGA Mike brain to understand? MAGA Mike, here's what MAGA Mike says here, Play this clip to get to on ice. You know, that's the story out of Minnesota. We've been covering it 247 as everybody else has in print and here on cable. Democrats wanted to fund ice. Can they do that?
- [18:55]
C
No, they can't. Because Republicans control Congress. This is no time to be playing games with national security and public safety. And that's what Democrats are doing, beating the drums up here. Remember what ICE stands for? It's Immigration and Customs Enforcement. They are enforcing the law. They are getting apprehending the dangerous criminals who were allowed into our country because Joe Biden kept the border wide open for four years. It estimated more than 20 million people came in. Many of them are a great danger to our community. A lot of them have, have collected in cities like Minneapolis. You know, these sanctuary cities. They're all there. And so ICE has to go and do its job. There's a lot of spin on the Democrat side. They're assaulting our law enforcement officers and they're breaking the law. They need to get out of the way and allow federal law enforcement to do its own its duty that serves all the American people.
