Overview

This episode of The Rob Carson Show centers on two major themes: the backlash against globalist elites at the World Economic Forum in Davos, and controversy surrounding Don Lemon’s alleged involvement in a disruptive church protest that has raised questions about free speech and federal law. The show moves seamlessly between comedic parodies, pointed political commentary, and interviews, with a special segment featuring KT McFarland on shifting global power dynamics and the rise of "America First" nationalism.

Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. The Minneapolis Church Incident and Don Lemon Controversy

(00:53–13:50)

• Events Recap:
  Rob Carson discusses recent unrest at a Minneapolis church where protesters, allegedly including Don Lemon, disrupted a congregation, leading to national outrage.
• Allegations and Legal Implications:
  The protest is framed as a possible violation of the FACE Act, a federal law protecting religious institutions from harassment or obstruction. Carson and guests repeatedly label the actions as "terrorism" rather than protest.
• Racial and Religious Tensions:
  Carson criticizes what he sees as the left weaponizing identity politics and accuses protesters of targeting Christians and white communities, likening their behavior to past racist violence:

  “It's the same as Jim Crow South KKK raiding the... churches down there, burning them down. Same damn thing.” (09:03, Rob Carson)

• Commentary on Law Enforcement Response:
  Frustration is voiced over the lack of immediate arrests, with guest analysis on the legal and political challenges to prosecution (07:25, KT McFarland).
• Media Satire:
  Carson and comedian Jim Gossett present a musical parody lampooning Don Lemon’s situation, mixing humor with sharp criticism:

  “Oh, Donny boy, the feds are calling. You stormed a church and now you're gonna pay.” (13:51, Jim Gossett)

2. Globalists and Davos: The Decline of the "New World Order"

(21:01–29:25 | Interview with KT McFarland)

• Davos as a Turning Point:
  KT McFarland describes the World Economic Forum as "must-see TV" this year, predicting a global rejection of elite globalism in favor of populist, nationalistic policies:

  “The world has rejected now globalism and all the things that those globalists stand for. America first is the American policy.” (21:40, KT McFarland)

• Trump’s Trade and Foreign Policy Impact:
  The effectiveness of Trump’s tariffs and hardline negotiation strategies is discussed, especially concerning Europe and Greenland:

  “Tariffs are the ultimate weapon... we're not giving it away anymore. We want something for it.” (23:23, KT McFarland)

• Greenland and Geopolitical Stakes:
  The U.S. interest in Greenland’s resources and strategic location is detailed, along with the desire to avoid alliances that lack tangible returns:

  “We are willing to do an awful lot for Greenland, we are willing to do an awful lot for NATO, but we don't want to do it and not own the land.” (24:01, KT McFarland)

3. Populist Shifts Across the World

(28:06–29:25, 32:00–36:11)

• Europe’s Struggles and the Rise of Nationalism:
  The challenges facing European societies—immigration, spending, law and order—are cited as drivers of a nationalist resurgence:

  “These are societies which are broken now. Can they fix them? Yeah, sure... Will they? Who knows?” (28:03, KT McFarland)

• U.S. Influence on Change Abroad:
  Momentum is predicted for further regime change or democratization in Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba, modeled after the fall of communism in Eastern Europe.

  “I think 2026 is going to be the most amazing year that we’ve lived. Honestly, I really do. I think it’s going to be remarkable.” (35:41, Rob Carson)

4. Satire, Comedy, and Pop Culture Commentary

(12:02, 13:51, 39:28)

• Jim Gossett Parodies:
  Musical comedy segments lampooning contemporary figures and events provide levity, including a parody about Greenland:

  “Greenland's a country we should buy. You know, I'm really gonna try buying Greenland.” (39:28, Jim Gossett)

• Pop Psychology of Activism:
  A Gutfeld soundbite (16:16–18:34) satirically analyzes the psychological motivations for leftist activism, suggesting “rescue fantasies” fill personal voids:

  “It isn’t about ICE. It isn’t about Trump. It is about suicidal empathy that is driven by a rescue fantasy.” (16:16, Commentator)

5. Personal Anecdotes and Americana

(31:10–31:23)

• Midwestern Spirit:
  A lighthearted exchange about Midwest resilience to snowstorms briefly punctuates the political discussion.

Notable Quotes and Memorable Moments

• On Cultural Divides & Protest:

  “These spoiled, entitled children with worthless degrees would storm in and terrify, absolutely terrify a congregation.” (01:16, Rob Carson)

• Satire on the Left:

  “Democrats are crazy cat ladies. Absolutely. Bat crap. Crazy cat ladies. And emasculated, feminized men.” (01:14, Rob Carson)

• Legal Analysis:

  “The Department of Justice is likely to proceed through its Civil Rights division because they targeted a church.” (08:21, Jonathan Tarley)

• KT McFarland on Globalism:

  “The world has rejected now globalism... countries in Europe, Asia, South America are all sort of going in the Trump direction.” (21:40, KT McFarland)

• Rob on 2026:

  “Freedom is going to ring around the world this year. Iran is going to fall because it has to. Now is the time. Now is the moment.” (36:30, Rob Carson)

Summary

This energetic and provocative episode weaves together current events, legal debate, satire, and global analysis. Rob Carson uses humor, musical parodies, and impassioned interviews—especially with KT McFarland—to argue that both American society and the world at large are rejecting globalism and witnessing the resurgence of nationalism, faith, and traditional values. The reaction to the Minneapolis church incident is tied to broader frustrations with perceived left-wing excess, while the Davos segment suggests the global power structure is in flux. In Carson’s view, 2026 will be a “remarkable” year, marked by freedom, populism, and substantial geopolitical change.

Every style, every home.

[Caller or Guest]

Hold it now.

[Jim Gossett]

You are about to hear the most interesting, informative, thought provoking, and funny show in America on air and on the World Wide Web. This is the Rob Parson Show.

[KT McFarland]

Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?

[Rob Carson]

Where are your people? Why are you not at Whipple every day fighting for the humanity, standing for our people? Got your jewelry. You have your nice clothes.

[Jim Gossett]

But what do you do?

[Stiles Mackenzie]

What?

[Rob Carson]

What do you do to stand for your Somali and Latino communities? I'm not going to comment. You have no comment. Exactly.

[KT McFarland]

Say your name.

[Rob Carson]

Good.

[Jim Gossett]

Say your name.

[Rob Carson]

Renee. Good. This is what the left has become, and they have crossed the Rubicon. They have crossed it. You remember last year when I said that Charlie Kirk's assassination was not a turning point? It was the turning point. This was the turning point. And I gotta tell you, I am just. I am just so bloody angry that this would happen, that these spoiled, entitled children with worthless degrees would storm in and terrify, absolutely terrify a congregation. And Don Lemon would go along because he's an ignorant. Here. Here's the thing about Don Lemon. You know I told you about how Democrats are crazy cat ladies. Absolutely. Bet crap. Crazy cat ladies. And the emasculated. And emasculated feminized men. Let me give you Jennifer Welch, who's psychotic, has a podcast, and Don Lemon, yesterday, after Don Lemon is under investigation for. For violating the Face act, he's in some serious crap.

[Stiles Mackenzie]

Think. These MAGA men, they have, like, a hive mind. None of them are unique.

[Rob Carson]

None of this woman is a seething cauldron of hate and evil. I mean, she's just nuts.

[Stiles Mackenzie]

Them are the alphas. They think they are.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, no, we're very Alpha, thank you.

[Stiles Mackenzie]

They just all take their orders every day. What's Elon saying? What's Trump saying? And mold. And you are a prize for them.

[Caller or Guest]

A.

[Stiles Mackenzie]

An independent gay, black. Happy success.

[Rob Carson]

He's happy. Oh, my God. He's unemployed and he's miserable, man.

[Stiles Mackenzie]

And this is an attempt to intimidate and beat you down.

[Rob Carson]

No, no, it's not. Now Listen to him play the race card. This. What you have to realize is that they're not winning. They're getting their rear ends handed to him, which Don loves, by the way. They're getting their rear ends handed to them. And this is what they're doing. These are the movie vampires. They are dying like movie vampires, dragging and kicking. And what they do is they say the most obscene, aggravating things as they're trying to drag you down.

[Caller or Guest]

I don't disagree with that, and I didn't hear the first part, but I think that there is. Obviously there's racism. And the whole point of it is that they're trying to. They're detaining people on the streets because of accents and the color of their skin.

[Rob Carson]

Apparently ridiculous and false. I mean, as false as James Clyburn saying that the Republicans want to bring back slavery.

[Caller or Guest]

And they're also targeting. They're targeting people of color and black people as well as brown people. So there is a certain degree of racism there and there's a certain degree of entitlement. I think people who are, you know, in the religious groups like that.

[Rob Carson]

It's not that, oh, here he goes after Christians. These are people who, by the way, work very hard, have very little, try to give their level best, maybe 10% to the church to give back, try to do charitable events. And this jackass who does nothing in his life is going to call him white supremacy.

[Caller or Guest]

Listen to this type of Christianity that I practice. But I think that they're.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, I don't think you practice Christianity entitled.

[Caller or Guest]

And that, that entitlement comes from a supremacy, a white supremacy. And they think that this country was built for them, that it is a Christian country. When actually we left England because we want.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, my God, I know, I'm the same way. I'm the same way. It's just so bloody frustrating and awful and stupid and all of this. Here is Alina Haba. She's, you know, Trump lawyer, among other things, talking about the Face act and what, what Don Lemon might be facing.

[Stiles Mackenzie]

That's everybod. That's everybody. The Face act is a long standing federal statute that prohibits force, threats, obstruction, any kind of interference with a religious place of worship. And it carries criminal penalties and violations. And what the Attorney General is saying is the truth. She will come down hard. The Department of Justice will come down hard. Our Civil Rights division will come down hard on anybody who tries to impede on or intimidate somebody in a place of worship or a police officer or nice officer. It's just not going to happen in this administration. The Department of Justice will look into whomever is funding this. It's no different than a RICO action if you are funding mass protests, if you are having protests that are not. That are not righteous protests. There are First Amendment rights that we respect, but that are putting people in risk, not allowing people to go to church. This Department of Justice will come down on you.

[Rob Carson]

Here is Kayleigh McAnee talking to Pastor Dale Witherington about what they did on Saturday. It wasn't about preach. It was terrorism. It wasn't about freedom of speech. It was terrorism.

[Stiles Mackenzie]

Someone who was in that church says as the children started to cry, the rage of one man grew and grew and he started screaming how we are privileged pigs.

[Reporter or Correspondent]

In fact, I spent some time this afternoon talking with a young lady who was actually in the church during that service yesterday, and she explained how those folks came barging in, which of course is a violation of the Face Act. You know, that it's a federal violation. What they did had nothing to do with First Amendment rights for journalists or anything like that that Mr. Lemon was proclaiming. But the beauty of it is the members of the congregation first, they tried to protect the children because those agitators, those protesters came after the kids. I mean, unreal. What kind of guts is that? Number one? Number two, the pastors responded in a very peaceful manner. They requested that the members of the congregation just open their Bibles.

[Rob Carson]

Okay, I understand that. I understand that. I'm not as benevolent. I won't be as benevolent. If that happens at my church, I'm not going to put my Bible down. I'm not going to know this is a threat. This is a threat, and I will protect my flock. Not saying they're my flock, but you know what I'm talking about. Fellow parishioners, Harmony, Dylan asking was asked why no arrests yet.

[KT McFarland]

I know people are frustrated. Where are the arrests, etc. Let me explain that for you and your team, Benny, because state prosecutors could have arrested some of these people yesterday. They don't have some of the same hurdles that we do in the doj. When doj, we gather our facts, we.

[Rob Carson]

Go to a federal judge.

[KT McFarland]

A federal judge has to issue the search warrants. We all know what the federal judges are doing right now in Minnesota. We will pursue charges in this case. I see various crimes that have occurred. Exactly what they are, I'm not going to flag. But the Faith act has been mentioned as one of the predicates there.

[Rob Carson]

Unbelievable. This is what they become. And it can't go further than this. It has to stop here. This is it. This is the line. This is the Rubicon. It is. It is. There's no doubt about it. This is sacred. Sacred in more ways than one. Right? More ways than one. Jonathan Tarley, Georgetown law professor, talking last night. I believe he was talking with water.

[Jonathan Tarley]

The Department of Justice is likely to proceed through its Civil Rights division because they targeted a church. They are looking into whether the civil rights of those congregants were violated by making things worse for these groups. As one of the organizers said that all of these congregants have to look at their, quote, theology and look, they.

[Rob Carson]

Don'T worship God within their hearts. And so these protesters are Marxists and they're atheists.

[Jonathan Tarley]

So there's this question of whether the church itself and the congregants were being targeted. So there is ground here for the Civil Rights division to investigate.

[Rob Carson]

Unbelievable. It's the same as Jim Crow South KKK raiding the. The churches down there, burning them down. Same damn thing. Is that what's going to happen next? They burned down Minneapolis in 2020. They burned their way across our country the last freaking decade. What else do you need to know? Do they need to be on horseback wearing hoods for God's sake? And then there's Tampon Timmy, who's presided over and knew about massive, massive fraud in his state. And he's been pretty quiet about this.

[Jonathan Tarley]

But what's also fascinating is the lack of deterrent from local officials. You know, at a minimum, this is trespass and disorderly conduct under state law. We haven't even heard from the governor to condemn what was a grotesque, an offensive mob action against this church, federal laws. You will get into a fight over whether the motivation was political as opposed to religious or racist. What I think is really quite conspicuous is the absence of state deterrence and enforcement. I mean, there has to be at some point, which Governor Walz and Because.

[Rob Carson]

He'S trying to cover his crooked ass. There you go. I just said it. That's what he's trying to do. They're trying to cover up what they did. Tim Parish is a man of color and he was on CNN talking about what this means to most.

[Caller or Guest]

I totally disagreed. Because of what a pastor does for a living or what they're involved in politically.

[Rob Carson]

He said that because the pastor works part time for ICE that it gave him every right to do this. So if a police officer or somebody you find offensive works at a church, you could just barge in and terrorize the congregation.

[Caller or Guest]

Gives no one the right. There was a child in that video who was sitting in their father's AR, shaking, confused, trying to figure out what's going on when these people burst into this church. And, Lee, what I will say is people have a First Amendment right and the ability to go and protest against ice. If they don't like ice, be my guest. Go protest. But those people in that church, I would say, and not. But those people in that church absolutely have a First Amendment right to gather and worship the God of their choosing. And I'll say a pointed point here is it is actually Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The day that we recognize his contribution to the country today, his mother in 1970, was killed, shot and killed in a church because of political violence because the KKK wanted to insert their political will over a community. This is remarkably similar to that. I remember my great grandfather telling me stories about church bombings in the South. Remarkably similar to that. Everyone at this table should.

[Rob Carson]

Be unbelievable. All right, we're going to take a break. I got a little bit audio from somebody I respect a lot, Greg Gutfeld, and he came in off the top rope on this nonsense. We're going to take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show.

[Jim Gossett]

Would I launch strikes in Mexico to stop drugs?

[Rob Carson]

It's okay with me.

[Jim Gossett]

Boom, boom, boom, boom. Bang, bang, bang, bang. There you go. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

[Rob Carson]

Hi. It's rolling. You got a bit used to hearing that. You'll hear some boom, boom, bang, bang. Don Lemon is a very, very intelligent and in depth reporter. Here he is last year talking about whether it's illegal to come into the country illegally. Okay?

[KT McFarland]

Crossing the border illegally is not a crime.

[Caller or Guest]

No, it's not a criminal act. It's a misdemeanor.

[Rob Carson]

So why are they being sent back.

[KT McFarland]

And saying that they're breaking the law? That's the point, okay, as somebody that.

[Caller or Guest]

You don't know if they're breaking the law because they won't tell. There's no due process. We're warning the.

[Rob Carson]

This is going to get super duper, duper, duper stupid. Like, right up there with Jasmine Crockett.

[Caller or Guest]

Stupid is the evidence. That's the whole point. And if they are breaking the law, most people will say, okay, then they need to go if they're criminals. But if they're not, why are they being rounded up and sent out? Especially when he promised to. To deport the criminals. It's not.

[Rob Carson]

It's not.

[Caller or Guest]

You're not. It's not a crime. You're not breaking the law. I mean, you are breaking the law, but it's not a criminal act.

[KT McFarland]

You're speeding, drinking, get pulled over, dui.

[Caller or Guest]

That's not a criminal act. Well, no, if you're speeding is a misdemeanor.

[Rob Carson]

It's a misdemeanor. Still breaking the law.

[Caller or Guest]

Okay, well, if you want to. If you want to qualify that. We're doing semantics.

[KT McFarland]

Is it law to come over legally?

[Rob Carson]

Is there a law? There are.

[Caller or Guest]

There are rules that processes that you should follow.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah.

[Caller or Guest]

So you're breaking rules, you're breaking the rules, but you're not necessarily breaking a law.

[Rob Carson]

So what happens when you break the rules?

[Caller or Guest]

Then you get. You suffer the consequences, but the consequences should not.

It's.

Look, no one is saying. No one should stop with the consequences. You guys are getting things mixed up.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, my God. I think we need to hear some Jim Gassett comedy. What do you say?

[Jim Gossett]

Oh, Donny boy, the feds. The feds are calling. You stormed a church and now you're gonna pay. You had a apart in that church riot. It won't be long till you're taken away.

[Rob Carson]

I think in prison, he probably liked.

[Jim Gossett]

The bottom buck, not the top Bucky.

[Rob Carson]

Roger.

[Jim Gossett]

It's certain they'll arrest.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, please.

[Jim Gossett]

You will regret the chaos that you wrought.

[Rob Carson]

Wow, this is kind of pretty.

[Jim Gossett]

Isn't it a bad idea to storm a house of worship? Oh, darling Donny boy. Oh, Donny boy, you have been caught.

[Rob Carson]

Wow, that's almost too pretty to call a parody man. Jim Gossett, ladies and gentlemen, patreon.com Jim Gossett comedy. Gutfeld came in off the top rope. You know, he has Jessica. What's her name? Jessica Tardlove. Yeah, Tardlove. Yes, Jessica Tardlove. And she's just. I mean, woo. Karen central. Karen Central. You know, the women in Minneapolis are so crazy. The white women in Minneapolis so crazy, the Humane Society cuts them off after three cats. It's that bad. It is that bad. Here's Don Lemon going nuts.

[Commentator or Analyst]

This isn't about immigration.

[Rob Carson]

I mean, Gutfeld going nuts.

[Commentator or Analyst]

It isn't about ice. It isn't about Trump. It is about suicidal empathy that is driven by a rescue fantasy.

[Rob Carson]

Crazy cat lady.

[Commentator or Analyst]

You have all of these young, middle aged women going out there because they have some kind of emptiness in their lives that are going out there in this kind of rescue delusion, helping people they don't know, strangers who are guilty of crimes. How can you defend that? This is not protesters going to a church. That is a mob. The people that Invented the phrase safe spaces, are breaking it up, frightening kids, right? These are the people that call us fascists and they're hunting people. These are the people that claim to defend women and yet are defending men who abuse women. And imagine showing this tape to Don Lemon 10 years ago, 15 years ago, and saying, is this where you saw yourself, Lemon crashing a church service, scaring kids, attacking a pastor. Was this your hope and dream to.

[Rob Carson]

Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. Here's the exclamation point.

[Commentator or Analyst]

These rescue fantasies exist because the real power of women, which is in the roles of community, of community, whether it's wife, mother, work, teaching, that stuff, has been marginalized by our modern leftist culture. That has to be replaced by activism. Your life is meaningless unless you're out there screaming and a cop's face. You have all these sad people out there in this liberation role playing and you're egging it on. You should not be egging this on. Jessica. You know, we had this. This is a time for brave women. Where is the Internet mom? The woman, the women who step up and show younger women out of this spiritual dead end. Because it is a spiritual dead end. Apt it is that they end up in a church screaming at people. You know, this activism doesn't produce anything but suffering because it replaces what is truly meaningful in people's lives. It's about how we got here and why. We've talked about this over and over again. Whether it was George Floyd, whether it was ice, it's all the same. It's a desire to be part of this rescue fantasy because your life's so.

[Rob Carson]

Frickin empty and the only way to cure it is a spanking. There's no reasoning, only defeat, jail, whatever it takes. Ridiculous. When they string first, when they swing first, only takes one swing back. Done. Done with this. When you invade our churches, you keep trying this nonsense and they're still talking about it. There's a trans lawmaker, Lee Finke, who says that they ought to storm more churches. Well, homeboys, hillbillies and Hebrews. How you feel about that? How you feel about that? Homeboys, hillbillies and Hebrews. That's why I came up with the expression. I came up with the expression because in New York City they actually, before they elected an Islamist and a communist as mayor, they were starting to do anti Jewish protests near where the Twin Towers came down and terrorizing Jewish people. Not only there, but also around the country. And if law enforcement won't do anything about it, maybe we just need some homeboys, hillbillies and Hebrews to go down and kick some ass. I'm not, I'm saying leaving it up to federal authorities. But if it comes into your congregation, you get security because this is not protected speech. This is an invasion. This is like somebody coming into your home. It is unacceptable. It must be stopped. These people must go to jail. Enough is enough is enough. You've done it. The camel's back is broken. The Rubicon has been crossed. Coming up next, next, the one and only KT McFarland. Don't go anywhere. Let me share Brian's story from Alabama. He tells us about Relief Factor. Trying it for just three weeks. At least 90% of my pain was gone. My pain had started to limit me at work and at home. And I'm amazed at the relief I've gotten. Those are Brian's own words and they speak volumes about what relief factor can do. I've seen that kind of transformation myself. And hearing Brian's experience just reinforces why I'm so passionate about sharing this with you all. Don't wait. If you're dealing with daily pain, launch your three week quick start and see what relief Factor can do for you. Call 804 RELIEF, that's 804 RELIEF. Or go to relieffactor.com that's relieffactor.com how will it feel to be out of pain?

[Commentator or Analyst]

Okay, we are in Davos at the.

[Rob Carson]

World Economic Forum and the Trump administration and myself, we are here to make.

[Commentator or Analyst]

A very clear point was that globalization has failed the west and the United States of America.

[Rob Carson]

There you go. That is Howard Lutnick at the end Davos. And I got to tell you, KT McFarland joined us on Newsmath Hotline, former Trump Deputy National Security Advisor, author of Revolution Trump Washington and We the People. I don't think I've ever considered the World Economics Forum must see tv, but I have a funny feeling this is going to be awful fun to watch this week. KT what do you think?

[KT McFarland]

Oh, yeah, this is the victory. Oh, and it's not even, you know, it's really because the victory is going to get even better with time. I mean, this is a victory lap in the sense that the world is, has rejected now globalism and all the things that those globalists stand for. America first is the American policy. But countries in Europe, countries in Asia, countries in South America are all sort of going in the Trump direction.

[Rob Carson]

Yes.

[KT McFarland]

Of looking at their national security, their economic security first. And they're not turning it, they're not as willing to turn it over to the hands of the globalists, the sort of self appointed experts, for two reasons. One, it's not democratic, you know, we want to observe our nation's laws, not some vague international system. And then secondly, the globalists have been wrong.

[Rob Carson]

Yes, well, they always are. They're these European elites and you know, they, they always talk a big game. They consider a meeting to be the accomplishment, not actually what comes out of the meeting, unlike a Trump cabinet meeting, you know, because when academics get together, they have a meeting and when they break from the meeting, they say, hey, accomplishment, we did a meeting. And, and Donald Trump is not like that. And consequently shaking, shaking up the world. They tried to kind of, as I speak loudly and carry a flaccid stick when it came to, came to Greenland. It sounds like they're kind of doing a little, you know, like, like when a pit bull is separated from a Chihuahua. That Chihuahua was really, yippee, yippee until the fence disappears. That's kind of what happened when Donald Trump decided, okay, well, I'll just tariff you if you have a problem with me taking over Greenland. They don't. They talk a big game, but they collapse pretty quickly, don't they?

[KT McFarland]

Yeah, I mean, tariffs are the ultimate weapon. And why are they such an effective weapon? Because the United States, President Trump, understands that every country needs to sell its goods in the United States. It doesn't. You can't substitute the American market for the Chinese market. They're not going to buy stuff. Or the European market. They're not going to buy stuff. Only America. And for years we gave it away. And the difference with President Trump is we're not giving it away anymore. We want something for it. And in this case, you know, the Greenland example that you've said, what we want is we are willing to do an awful lot for Greenland, we are willing to do an awful lot for NATO, but we don't want to do it and not own the land.

[Rob Carson]

Yeah, so are we. How do, how do we do this? Kt, you know this obviously much better than I do. They're not going to become a state. Are they going to become like Puerto Rico?

[KT McFarland]

What do you suppose, you know, could be like some of the Pacific Islands. They'll figure that part out. That's the easy part. The hard part is to make sure that we do it in such a way that we don't want to blow up the NATO alliance. We want to have good relations with Denmark, which is the country that has nominal oversight of Greenland. They're a good, loyal ally. They've been a very good ally to us in NATO and in other ways. So we don't want to blow up that relationship. But at the same time. And President Trump's willing to pay, he made it really clear we'll pay. We'll pay fair market value. But the point with Greenland is that there's sort of three points. One, well, the one obvious one is they have rare earth minerals and oil and gas. Yeah, we want our hands on that.

[Rob Carson]

Sure.

[KT McFarland]

The other is that they're the maritime trade route. And as the ice melts, that means all the goods that are going to go from North America, from Europe to Asia, they're going to go over the Arctic Pole, they're not going to go through the Atlantic. So we want to control that trade route. But then the other one, which is the real stickler, is that President Trump has proposed a missile defense system that would protect all of America, but it would also protect Canada, it would also protect Europe. These are the ability to shoot down missiles as they're entering the US Nuclear weapon missile. And we would pay for it, we would control it, we would share it in the sense that we would protect others. But we're not going to do it. We're not going to spend that kind of money if we don't own the land.

[Rob Carson]

I notice that the Prime Minister of Canada is. I don't understand why he would do this. I think it's suicide. Mark Carney the other day preached about and went and visited China, by the way. Visited China. You see Emmanuel Macron talking about how Europe should trade more with China. I gotta tell you. Yeah. Mark Carney is digging himself a shallow grave with regard to Donald Trump, and I just think that was a really, really bad move on his part. What do you think?

[KT McFarland]

Well, I think that Carney. And it reflects a lot of the leadership of the global leadership that people are going to be at Davos, like, you know, the President of France, like Macron. Their nation's in decline, and they're managing their decline very nicely. They don't. They don't have the ability, the willingness, the sort of discipline to recreate and reinvent themselves. So that's what this is all about. China's plan is that Canada is going to become the farmland for China. China will ship really good, expensive goods to Canada, in this case, electric vehicles, and then Canada will sell agricultural products to China. That's China's vision. That's not America's vision.

[Rob Carson]

Do you suppose Donald Trump will allow that to go without any issues?

[KT McFarland]

Well, I mean, it's up to Canada. They're a sovereign nation. If they want to do that, that's up to them. But it's quite a mistake because we're something like 75% of their trade. China right now is 10% of their trade. And I think a lot of what the Canadian Prime Minister is doing is he's just ticked off. He's got Trump derangement syndrome. Yeah, I think he's gonna be a big guy.

[Rob Carson]

I think what we're witnessing here is a death spiral by the global elites, and they are lashing out in every way, shape and form. I've used this about the left in America. I talk to them, I say that they're spiral into hell. Dragging, kicking, trying to grab us, go with them. And I think that's what we're witnessing here, is this new world order of global elites is beginning to collapse. They're gnashing their teeth. They're trying to do this. They're trying to do this. And it's falling apart, quite simply, I would say. Would you?

[KT McFarland]

Yeah, completely. Because again, it hasn't worked. If you look at the European economies, they haven't grown. The European societies, they're in a mess. They have the law and order issue, they have the massive immigration issue, they have the massive spending issue. These are societies which are broken now. Can they fix them? Yeah, sure, they could turn it around. Will they?

[Rob Carson]

Who knows?

[KT McFarland]

Don't seem to have any willingness to do that so far.

[Rob Carson]

Well, it's happened, though, in Poland. It's happened in Hungary, it's happened in Italy to some degree. And I'm seeing little sparks happening in Germany and France, by the way, and England. I think the native population are sick and damn tired of what has happened to them because they did the same thing to those countries, they did to America, opening the borders, letting in all sorts of illegal, including Islamists. And obviously they've taken things a lot further in places like England. But there are a lot of people who have asked, is it too far? Is it too late for England? I don't think it is.

[KT McFarland]

You know, there's an interesting book that's just been written. I've read it, and it's a heavy read. It's very statistical, but it's by Arthur Laffer, so. Arthur Laffer for inventing the Laffer Curve. He's the one that explained to President Reagan about how if you lower taxes and deregulate, you in fact get higher tax revenues. All the Laffers, Reagan adopted it. Reaganomics. As a result, we had a generation of prosperity. And this is the same basis that President Trump is using now. Laffer says, well, it's not too late for Europe. They have to have the political will to do it. But Great Britain, for example, could turn it around. They just have to want to do it enough and are willing to take some tough medicine up front for an amazing gain down the road.

[Rob Carson]

All right, we've got to take a break. More with KT McFernal. And I know you have time limits, but I do have a couple other things I want to talk about, including Iran and Cuba on the other side of the break. Let's take a break. This is the ROB CARSON show.

They say 2 to 12 inches in Washington, D.C. for me being from the upper Midwest, Iowa and Minnesota, we go bowling when it snows afoot. We have no problem with that whatsoever. I'm not sure about KT McFarlane, but I don't think a snowfall would stop her. I don't think there's much could stop her. And she's on the Newsmax hotline. Oh, Katia. Oh, you're from Wisconsin.

[KT McFarland]

Snow doesn't bother me.

[Rob Carson]

Oh, yeah. I've done a lot of time on WTMJ in Milwaukee up there, you know, I love it. Yeah, we go when it snows 15 inches. We go bowling, don't we?

[KT McFarland]

Yeah, exactly.

[Rob Carson]

Absolutely.

[KT McFarland]

Or when the heat goes out in your car, you sit in the house, you go sit in the car. At least the heater Works in the car.

[Rob Carson]

There you go. There you go. So I predicted when Donald Trump became the president, that a tsunami of freedom and patriotism and now faith, with the death of Charlie Kirk will sweep the world. And it's happening in real time. And I believe, and I've heard Ted Cruz echo, you're looking at a couple of major things, certainly Venezuela, hopefully returning to democracy, Cuba falling soon thereafter, and Iran. And Iran is just shy of the Berlin Wall, I think. Kt, what do you think about what's going to happen to Iran?

[KT McFarland]

I think a couple of things that we could see this year 2026, be like the year that the Iron Curtain came down, the Wall came down, it led to one after another after another of liberations. What's going to happen in Iran? Well, who knows? You know, right now it looks like the Iranian government has acceded to President Trump's demands that they're not executing their people. But the protests are going to continue because the reason for the protests will continue, and that is that the Iranian government, you know, the regime has massively mismanaged what should be one of the most wealthy countries in the world. They're now now 75% of their impoverished. I mean, it's just crazy what's happened to Iran in just 20 or 30 years. So I think that they're. So maybe this particular demonstration batch and this round might go away, but then it'll come back because the problems aren't going to go away.

[Rob Carson]

I don't think it's going away, kt I think this is, I think there's serendipity. I think there's something happening here. It has everything to do with Donald Trump being office.

[KT McFarland]

It's all about, it's all about, you know, they're seeing what's happening in the world. And look at Argentina, for example, another country which should be one of the richest countries in the world, completely mismanaged. But the difference is, I think President Trump has really taken the lessons of failure from the Bush administration and the Obama administration. So in the Bush administration, we had regime change, we toppled governments, we disbanded all their militaries and their government services. And then in Afghanistan and Iraq, we ended up being the occupying force. And then fighting insurgency that didn't work. And then if you look at Obama, what he did, he toppled dictators, too, in the Arab Spring, but then he left. He didn't do any. He didn't stick around to help them form new governments of stability. And what happened to those countries is they all descended into chaos. And then ISIS and all the Islamic extremist movements started. So I think President Trump has got it. He's finding the middle way, and that's to deal with somebody like Maduro. He kills Americans. He comes and has to answer for himself, including. But at the same time, President Trump is now going to be working with the next tier of leaders, and he's going to be working with the Venezuelan oil companies to make sure that they have a good relationship with American oil companies. And then that's prosperity for everybody.

[Rob Carson]

It is in Latin America. We're seeing some amazing leaders who are very Trumpian, very Trumpian taking over down there. There's still some. There are some, you know, bastions of communism and whatnot. Kind of like in the United States there, KD New York City and Seattle and in Minneapolis, Minnesota, for goodness sake. What about Cuba? Cuba has been communist for as long as we've been alive pretty much. And they don't have Venezuelan oil and they don't have. I mean, they're a dependent state with like 90 political prisons, and that's about it. What do you think is going to happen there?

[KT McFarland]

I think, again, it'll be like Iran. It'll be like all these countries where at a certain point, whatever the leadership is, they can't hold on because they can't feed their people, they can't run their country. So at what point do they cut a deal with the United States? President Trump has said, look, the deal I want with Iran is no nukes, don't have terrorist armies to destroy Israel, and let's work together for international trade and oil development. The deal that he said to Venezuela, you know, is very similar to that. He wants to cut a deal and then move on. What happens in Cuba is that there's no money for Cuba. Cuba can't survive without somebody paying all the bills. And it's not going to be Venezuela anymore, not going to be Russia. Maybe Mexico will kick in a little bit. At a certain point, the leadership of Cuba is going to say, okay, we're going to have to cut a deal with President Trump. And maybe if that group of leaders, that top tier, doesn't want to do a deal, the next tier will.

[Rob Carson]

Well, I think that 2026 is going to be the most amazing year that we've lived. Honestly, I really do. I think it's going to be remarkable. I remember 1989, first year out of college, the Berlin Wall fell. We hoped that China would do the same thing. It didn't. And now see something that is remarkable. I'm going to Go to the store today and stock up on popcorn. And I'm going to text you during Donald Trump's speech. And we can just go back and forth as he just destroys everybody.

[Caller or Guest]

Greenland's a country we should buy. You know, I'm really gonna try buying Greenland. Something we should do or slap another tariff on the eu. Denmark, it's really time to sell.

[Rob Carson]

Bye, Denmark.

[Jim Gossett]

We promise. Two, three. Green land.

[Rob Carson]

[Jim Gossett]

Green land. It would be quite a prize. Mineral rich and really big in size.

[Rob Carson]

Lots of ice, too.
