William Kelly (4:44)

They've just arrested Nakima Armstrong for our protest on Sunday. You know, my lawyers tell me they have no fucking case. This use of the face act and the KKK act is complete bullshit. But let's be honest, they don't fucking care. They don't believe in the rule of law. They're fascists. They're now going after fucking the Clintons for the Epstein files. What the fuck?

Vince (5:07)

God damn it, people.

William Kelly (5:09)

When will you stop fucking acting like everything's normal and going about your fucking days? Get in the fucking streets now. It's time to shut this country down. We are at fascism the republic has fucking fallen. Please, Americans, please stand up for something. Do not be the same as those in 1930s Germany, because right now, that's exactly what you're all fucking doing.

Vince (5:34)

Please wake the fuck up. So he calls for insurrection. I love that. In the midst of all of his co conspirators being arrested, he just doubles down. You know, we need more insurrection. We need effing insurrection. Okay, settle down, son. In fact, as he was demanding that. That we get an insurrection instead, what he ended up with is being arrested. Here's video of him, cut three yesterday, being arrested. Shortly after that selfie video.

Carla Sands (6:00)

Watch.

Vince (6:04)

They got him on the ground. They're picking him up. He's bitching and moaning the whole time. You're a disgrace. He's yelling at them. He's yelling at these guys. They don't even care. They're just putting them in handcuffs. Imagine how satisfied they were to finally cuff that guy.

Carla Sands (6:23)

Yeah.

Vince (6:23)

Can we know taking him into custody. William Kelly found out.

Audience Member 1 (6:27)

Good.

Vince (6:28)

Remember, he's still screaming. I'm sure he's screaming to this very day. He. He found out. I love this. I can't. It's Chad. Are we enjoying this? I'm enjoying this. This is precisely what we've been asking for. He's in custody. Christy Gnome put out a photo of him. He looks dazed and confused. He can't even believe that he's being taken into custody. William Kelly charged with conspiracy to deprive rights, a federal crime, for his involvement in the St. Paul church riots. Yeah, the chat's liking it. Okay, good. All right. Yeah, me too. Let's. Let's keep this going. So William Kelly, busted yesterday. One after the other after the other. These things continue. So we get William Kelly.

Sean Hannity (7:11)

Perfect.

Vince (7:11)

Perfect. And you guys want to see a mug shots? Let's. We've got mug shots of the trio too. For those of you on the video chat, rumble.com. vince, we get mug shots. Here they are. Nikima Levi Armstrong. Not happy. Not happy at all. She's not happy with the mug shot. William Kelly. Look how crazy that dude looks. One of his eyes is like spinning off in a different direction here in this photo, he looks like Tom Hanks in Castaway, except way more evil. And he's got the eyes. Look at the eyes. We. We got him before he got somebody else. That. That's a big deal. Took him into custody. And then of course, there's Chantelle Allen. She too taken into custody yesterday. She looks very confused. She. She's. She is very confused. She does not Know what's going on. Dressed in her banana yellow shirt. There she is, arrested, ladies and gentlemen. That's how you end up with a mug shot. Break the law, get arrested. The Justice Department moving on, all these guys. Now, in the midst of all of this, you probably were wondering, hey, what about. What about Don Lemon? Is Don Lamont going to finally be taken into custody? And Don Lemon, yesterday was actually live streaming during the arrests. And you could tell. I went and I checked it out. It was really funny because Don kept looking at his phone in the middle of his own show. He was just staring at his phone the whole. He was, like, not paying attention. He had the Jack Smith testimony going on the screen. He's staring at his phone the whole time, clearly getting messages after so many people and, and from so many people and so much information flying in, and he's like, holy crap, everybody's getting arrested. I didn't know that was going to happen. Well, yeah, sure enough, it's happening. And so you will correctly note at this point that Don Lemon has not yet been arrested. Certainly at the time we're doing this program, we're at 10, 10am Eastern time, as we do this live on the east coast, as I said, and Don Lemon not arrested yet. So what's going on there? Well, we have some updates on that subject. Let's begin with how this went down. So the Justice Department did try to arrest him yesterday. They wanted to arrest Don, but they weren't able to yet. Yet. Here's what happened. According to the New York Post, other news outlets confirming as well, a judge has rejected the Trump DOJ's bid to charge Don Lemon over the Minnesota church storming. That's that. Once again, we get another radical judge getting in the way. A federal magistrate judge in Minnesota has rejected an attempt by the Justice Department to charge disgraced former CNN host Don Lamond over his participation in Sunday's invasion of a St. Paul church service by anti ice agitators. Lamont, 59 years old, was a part of a group of dozens of demonstrators who disrupted Sunday worship at city's church, A source familiar with the matter told the Post. Attorney General Pam Bondi is enraged by the judge's decision not to sign off on the charge against Lemon and added that she was heading to Minnesota herself. So we get a radical judge gets in the way, magistrate judge gets in the way and says, yeah, we're not going to hold this guy accountable. We're not. We're going to give him a free pass. Now we've learned some Things about this judge, you're probably wondering, well, who's the judge who put this guy in place? What is he? What you know, what's his motivation here? Well, here's something we learned about the dude, Bill Malusion, sharing the following information. Multiple sources tell him and his colleague David spun over at Fox that the federal magistrate in Minnesota who refused to sign off on this arrest warrant for Don Lamon is Douglas L. Miko. Miko is his name. And Miko Mouse and his wife work as works as an assistant Attorney General. His wife, Miko's wife, works as an assistant Attorney general in Keith Ellison's office. So Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who is a radical anti ice lunatic, a guy who's in on all of the fraud in Minnesota, who let $20 billion get stolen from you and me and Minnesota taxpayers. This lady works in his office, and her husband gets to make decisions about whether or not Don Lamond gets charged. You want to talk about a conflict of interest here? She's on the side of the insurrectionists. The judge is on the side of the Insurrectionist. So the judge says, no. No charges for Don Lamont, even though he filmed evidence of his own crime all day long. Don's not a smart man. Don's a stupid man. Don filmed all of the evidence of his own crime, and yet at the moment, no sign off on an arrest warrant for Don Lamont. Now, that said, now we've got more about this guy, about. About what's going to happen with Don. Now, Greg Jarrett says this is not the end. Greg Jarrett over at the Fox News Channel, a legal expert said this is not the end for Don, that the Justice Department's still going to move. And we're seeing reports already this morning that the Justice Department has more tricks in its bag to go after Don Lamont. Take a look. Here's cut seven. Greg Jarrett late last night with this.

Sean Hannity (12:23)

Assessment, rejecting the charges against Don Lemon. Smells fishy to me. And we may actually learn more about the magistrate's motivations, his bias, his conflict of interest. As Kevin pointed out, you know, legally, the magistrate would have to have decided that these prosecutors did not meet the standard of probable cause. But, you know, just personally disagreeing with the wisdom or fairness of bringing the case, that's not a valid ground for overriding the charging decision. So, Sean, I thoroughly expect the DOJ to do one of two things here. Either bypass the magistrate by going directly to a grand jury for an indictment against Don Lemon, or go to a real district court judge, because, you know, a magistrate is really just a ministerial assistant. You know, he handles misdemeanors and warrants and empties the trash cans.

Vince (13:19)

Yeah. So they've followed the standard procedure. They went to the magistrate in order to get this accomplished. The magistrate's saying no. Greg Jarrett's looking at this going, this is not up to you in terms of. You don't get to just do it based on, like, your random opinion or. I like Don Lemon. I'm the. I'm the one viewer who watches him. No, that's not how it works. Did he or did he not violate the laws or evidence for that? And if there is, the Justice Department's in the right to take the guy into custody. His magistrate's like, no, I'm not going to let you do it. Okay, fine. We've got other options. We can go directly to a grand jury, or we can go to a real big boy judge and we can take this guy into custody. Those are the options. And with Pam Bondi on the move in order to make this happen, I don't think things are over for Don Lemon. I've got more evidence for why it's not over. Don Lemon himself is right now daring Pam Bondi to arrest him. Watch this. Cut eight. Check. Take a look at this.

J.D. Vance (14:09)

I stand proud and I stand tall.

Vince (14:11)

This is not a victory lap for me because it's not over. They're going to try again, and they're.

J.D. Vance (14:15)

Going to try again, and guess what? Here I am. Keep trying.

Vince (14:20)

That's not going to stop me from being a journalist. You're not going to diminish my voice.

J.D. Vance (14:23)

Go ahead. Make me into the new Jimmy Kimmel. If you want. Just do it.

Vince (14:31)

Make me into the new Jimmy Kimmel. What is. I'm sorry. If you want to be Jimmy Kimmel, you're already Jimmy Kimmel. You're ridiculous. You're anti Trump, you're not interesting, and nobody watches you. So you've already achieved exactly what you want. To become the new Jimmy Kimmel. What is he talking about? Jimmy Kimmel. Like he's like some civil rights hero or something. Jimmy Kimmel. I'll be immortalized like Jimmy Kimmel. So Don Lamont is daring. Daring the United States Department of Justice to cuff him. Come after me. Come after me. Okay. You know who's going to take that deal? You know who's already ready to take that deal? Harmeet Dillon. Harmeet Dhillon responded to Don Lemon. Let's look at this. Okay, That's so funny, Don. I love this, and I love. I. I really do you? I gotta believe Don really thinks that he's about to become, like, an historic figure. There will be streets named after him if he gets arrested, that America will forever remember Don Lamont. We'll have Don Lamonde every day. There's going to be. Every year, we're going to get a national holiday dedicated to Don Lemonade. It's going to be amazing. America is going to look back on this moment and think, that man was an historic figure. That man's my inspiration, that man, you know? And you, too, can conclude things like airplanes can disappear into black holes. It's going to be great. The Jimmy Kimmel. Yeah, that'll be. That'll be wonderful. Anyway, so they're on the move. Army Dylan, who, by the way, remember, told us earlier this week. What did Harmony tell us? She said, yeah, Vince, there's going to be arrests. It is clear that these people are breaking the law on camera. We are going to arrest them. And then she did it. So she said there would be arrests, and then there were arrests. And here she is watching as Don Lemon, like, looks at her and was like, go ahead. I dare you to arrest me. And she just said, okay, you got it. You got it. That's on the way to. All right, I'll keep my eyes open for that. Keep my eyes open for that. By the way, do you think Don Lemon actually needs these glasses, or does he just wear them? He. He's got glasses on. Do you think those are, like, those, like, dope, like, fake glasses? The ones. They don't even adjust your vision at all. They're just meant to, like, oh, these look really good. There he is in a turtleneck and glasses. Yeah, he. What an inspiration that guy is to criminals everywhere. Speaking of criminals being everywhere in Minnesota, in Minneapolis, we've got a full blown insurrection going on. A full blown insurrection. I hate these insurrections. I've been calling for the Insurrection act. And yesterday on the radio program, I had the great Mary Margaret Olihan stopped by from the Daily Wire. And I said, mary Margaret, if. If I were there with you, because she was with the Vice President of the United States yesterday in Minneapolis. The Vice President lands in Minneapolis. He's surveying the scene. He's talking to local law enforcement. He's trying to figure out what the hell's going on here. And I said, mary Margaret, if I were in your shoes there, I would ask the vice president, what is it going to take? What do you need to hear? What do you need to say that you can go to the President of the United States and tell him, Mr. President, now's the time we need to invoke the Insurrection Act. And Mary Margaret, God bless her, said Vince, that's a great question I'm going to ask. And she did. And she did. I've got that coming up for you, Mary Margaret. Mary Margaret Olihan from the Daily Wire asking the Vice President of the United States this audience question, which is what is it going to take to invoke the Insurrection Act? His answer coming up here on this edition of Vince, it's always so great to have you with us. Every day Americans make choices that shape our country's future right down to which cell phone provider we support. Here's what a lot of people don't realize.

Go to patriot mobile.com Vince or call 972 Patriot and make the switch today. Patriot mobile, baby. Yes. PB 202-14-972. That's a heck of a username, says Vince. I've been calling for the Insurrection act for weeks. He's got to do it. This country's going to burn multiple emojis, including one of Dan and one of me. Well, I totally agree with you. Extensive username. I've been calling for it for weeks as well. We need to restore order. We need to restore order. And I said yesterday on our program that I think that the costs to our country of not doing it are immense. And if an ICE agent gets killed, things are going to get really hairy, far worse than they already are. I think the political consequences for President Trump and the Republican Party will be immense as well. If you don't employ a tool that's in your toolkit to prevent something unthinkable from happening, there's going to be, I think, a detrimental effect on your support. And I don't want to see any of those things happen because I'm rooting for President Trump. I think that his margins need to grow. I really want to get the country back in order. I'm super happy with the last year of the president's efforts, and I'd like for that success to continue. And in order to do that, I think just a limited invocation of the Insurrection act, apply it to Minnesota, clean things up, send in the troops, enforce local laws. Let's do it. Where's the vice president's head on this? Good thing I was able to talk to Mary Margaret, and good thing she was able to ask yesterday. Here's Mary Margaret Olahan asking JD Vance yesterday about using the Insurrection Act. Fellas, what kind of my. Out here. I'm looking for the cut. Oh, here it is. Cut nine. Cut nine. Mary Margaret, talking to J.D.

Angie Craig (21:14)

Vance, anything that you heard or saw.

Carla Sands (21:17)

Today that would cause you to counsel the president to invoke the Insurrection Act? And then also, did you meet or talk to the ICE agent who was involved in the Renee Goode incident?

J.D. Vance (21:27)

I did not talk to him today. I talked to some of his colleagues. You know, your question on the Insurrection act is interesting. I've tried to understand this as well as I possibly could, and my understanding is what the Insurrection act, what invoking the Insurrection act would allow the federal government to do is that would allow the federal government to use the military for local law enforcement operations. Right now, we don't think that we need that. Now, the president could change his mind. Of course, things could get worse. But right now, we think that federal law enforcement officers can do the job of federal law enforcement. Now, what I do worry about, again, is if the chaos gets worse, if more and more ICE agents start getting assaulted, if other law enforcement officers start getting assaulted, that would be a real problem. But again, we have so much federal law enforcement resources here right now. We have so many people here that we do not want to have here. I do not want so many ICE officers in Minneapolis right now. I mean, good Lord, it's really, really fricking cold outside. But they're here not even to enforce immigration laws, but to protect the people from the rioters. That's an absurd state of affairs, and we wouldn't need it if we had a little bit more cooperation from the Minneapolis Police Department. Again, the Minneapolis Police Department, my understanding is that the actual beat cops on the ground, they would love to help out, but they're being told by somebody. I don't know if it's Mayor Frey. They're being told by somebody not to cooperate at all. What kind of a person tells their local police don't protect somebody if they're being assaulted by a rioter? It's crazy, and it's got to stop.

Vince (22:56)

All right, let me, first of all, thank the Vice President of the United States for answering that question and Mary Margaret for asking it. That question was. Was crafted by this show, this audience, and that's the Vice President of the United States answering you directly. What will it take to invoke the Insurrection Act? Now, the answer he gave, I think is interesting, and we unpack what we heard. He says that the administration at this moment is not prepared to invoke the Insurrection Act. Not at this moment. We think we have enough federal forces here. Remember, the vice President serves certainly at the pleasure of the president, and he is conveying the president's judgment on this question. So he punted a little, but the reason for that is because he's just trying to keep the company line here, simply that President Trump hasn't invoked it. And that's his. That's his judgment call. And his judgment is right. That's why the American people have chosen him to be President of the United States. I think that's kind of where J.D. vance is. But let me point something out about his answer that really stood out to me. He thinks, he says, well, the Insurrection act allows us to deploy the military so that we can enforce local laws that are not being enforced. Well, that is precisely what's happening right now. Those conditions have been met. In fact, JD Says it. Vice President Vance says it at the end of his answer. He says, the Minneapolis Police Department's being handcuffs. I got. We got rank and file guys who definitely want to do the job, but somebody in their leadership, probably to include the mayor, Jacob Fry, are not letting them do the job. And what is that resulting in? Well, two days ago, we just saw a bunch of people in Minneapolis, a bunch of these terrorists, stalking and assaulting men and women of immigration enforcement, attacking Greg Bevino, dumping food on him, spitting on the guys, attacking them. And as soon as these guys try to take people into custody for assaulting them, they're being attacked by the mob. They're dogpiling men and women of law enforcement that are Currently trying to just clean up the area. So if you're looking for, oh, you know, the local laws are not being enforced. That's literally what's happening right now. So I would argue that Vice President Vance's answer yesterday to this audience is really straightforward. It's. The conditions have been met. The conditions have been met, and it is not to kick things into high gear. I'm not trying to elevate the temperature in Minneapolis when I say this. My approach to this is as sober as you can possibly get. I want to bring the temperature down. If you restore law and order and then you tell bad guys that there are consequences for their actions, that's how you get less badness. Last week, this. This week, Harmony Dillon said, we're going to make sure that nobody thinks it's legitimate to raid a church again. Well, how do you do that? You do what they did yesterday. They placed the bad guys in handcuffs, they got photos of their arrests, and then they posted all of it to the Internet. They were trying to take Don Lemon into custody yesterday. That was the plan before a radical judge whose wife is working directly with Keith Ellison got involved. But these. Clearly, they're trying to impose consequences as a deterrent, not just as consequences for breaking the law, but to prevent others from doing it. You think radical lefties are going to raid a Christian church again this weekend? And if they do, do you think they're going to go in there with that for a second, hesitating and being like, I may end up in handcuffs. Now, that's definitely the lesson. That's the lesson. And how do they learn that lesson? Somebody's got to crack the whip. It's as simple as that. So there's the answer from the vice president. He says, at this moment, the president's not invoking it. I continue to maintain they should. They should. Let's clean up this country. Let's send in the troops, let's take care of the people, and let's settle things down. And then in the midterms, you're going to have big success because things will be calm. What did they do in 2020? What did the left do in 2020? They got things. They made things crazy. They. They started rioting. They were burning American cities, burning police precincts down. Let's not get a repeat of any of that. You know, it's cold now, as you may know, across this country. Just wait until it warms up. If we get into the fighting season in America and the left still thinks there are no consequences for their violence, but it's gonna be a mess. Total mess. All right. Meanwhile, the President of the United States just coming back from. From Davos, and, man, he. He achieved quite a bit. I mean, they launched this Board of peace to handle Gaza, and he's the chairman of that. And also he struck a big deal with Greenland. He was able to corner all of Europe in order to secure a big deal. My next guest is gonna tell us all about what it means for Greenland and more importantly, for America. That's ahead on the program. And then, of course, we've got. We've got great audio of Scott Bess and beating Gavin Newsom into a pulp all week long. That was hilarious, too. We'll get to it.

Thank you, Boland Branch. Happy to have joining us right now, Carla Sands. You can find her on X. Carla H. Sands, she serves as the chair of the Foreign Policy Initiative. She's a distinguished senior fellow for Energy policy at the American First Policy Institute. And she was appointed by President Trump to the Economic Advisory Council and served as the U.S. ambassador to the Kingdom of Denmark. And that of course, includes Greenland and the Faroe Islands from 2017 to 2021. She's done it all. Carla Sands joins us. Hello, Carla.

Carla Sands (30:33)

Hey, Vince. It's great to be with you and your viewers. I'm so, I'm so happy to listen in on your program as well. It's really fascinating discussion.

Vince (30:41)

Thank you very much. We're having a good time today on a Friday. I'm looking back on this week, though, and, and I, I feel like, like it's somehow President Trump's deal with Greenland is not the biggest story. He, he started off, Carla, in pursuit of taking over all of Greenland for the United States of America. People started freaking out that we were going to have a full blown military invasion of Greenland. And then by the end of the week, he says, we've got a huge deal. Now tell us about, as you understand, what is this deal? How does this benefit us?

Carla Sands (31:14)

Sure, I'd love to. And it's as if every day is a year right now. If you look at the achievements of the Trump administration because they had those four years in the wilderness where they were able to decide what policies were important for the prosperity and security of the American people. And that's every one of your viewers. But if I could just digress for one sec, I was listening in on J.D. vance's talking about not invoking the Insurrection act and bringing in the troops. And I'm watching what's happening, happening in Minneapolis. And I was in Los Angeles during something called the Rodney King riots in the early 90s, and there was rioting and looting because of a guy who got pulled out of his truck and got beaten up. And then there was a kerfuffle and it was just, it's as if the city went on fire. And literally they were setting fires in Santa Monica, South Beverly Hills, and then of course east la and it took invoking the Insurrection Act. I think it was Bush that sent in troops.

Vince (32:18)

Yes.

Carla Sands (32:18)

And everybody got so much more, I would say, peaceful. There were Korean business, business owners all over downtown LA that were standing on the roofs of their shops with their rifles to shoot any trespasser that went in because law enforcement was just, they were outgunned and they just were afraid. You just didn't see, you didn't see the police, really. It's as if they hid and, and they were good guys, but they just were overwhelmed by the numbers. And so when we see what's happening, I mean, I, I can't wait. If this continues and this agitation and these paid agitators and ideological Marxists continue to try to destroy law and order in our country. I hope they do invoke the Insurrection Act.

Vince (33:04)

Yes.

Carla Sands (33:05)

I think really instill comfort in those law abiding people in that state. And it'll also warn other places like they're trying, they're planning something for New York City to do the same thing, thing. And they've got, I think five or 10,000 people that they're trying to assemble and they'll have a mayor that has their back, that won't arrest them and won't hold them and will allow the chaos and anarchy to grow. And that's why I think they started that Texas Stock Exchange. I mean, capital is going to flee from, from anarchy. So it's just, it's devastating. But let me talk.

Vince (33:38)

Well, let me. Since you brought this up, I just, let me just intervene because I, I totally agree enthusiastically with you, of course, and I do think the Insurrection act is important and to give people the context. You're right. That was George H.W. bush, 1992, during the L. A Riots. And he did it, by the way, at the invitation of the Republican governor at the time, Pete Wilson, who for that support. Yeah, great. Governor of California. And then, and then, of course, let me put on screen, full screen, guys, this is the rooftop Koreans that we were just hearing about from Carla. This is, this is what it looked like back in 1992 is Koreans take to the roofs in order to try and protect themselves from the rioters. Just utter Madness going on. And, yes, bringing about a piece is. Is super important here. So I can't agree with you more, Carla. I think this is a. This is a really big moment, and I think the Trump administration should answer it by doing what they do so well, which is get another win for the American people.

Angie Craig (34:31)

Right.

Carla Sands (34:31)

And I think it'll quell these uprisings because they see weakness and they see an opening. And we can see that, like, Trump doesn't have most of his attorneys in place because of the blue slip in the Senate. And so that's causing a lot of problem where they didn't hold. Like you said, they. They didn't hold. Don Lemon, when he went, he absolutely broke the law. So I'm sure that Herme Dhillon is on it. The DOJ has been amazing, but they just don't have their. Their men and women in the field to. To uphold the law. So we have these activists, we have these activist attorneys and judges that are turning justice on its head. And that's really. It's really bothering me because when I see that happening, the, you know, the activist judges, it reminds me of what was happening in El Salvador. And we saw Bukele. He actually, you know, he. I mean, he didn't uphold the law. He kind of did stuff in, you know, a little bit unlawfully, but he got rid of them because he said there was a judicial cartel that was imposing unlawful, unlawful actions.

Vince (35:38)

His country was overrun by ms.13. I mean, they. They had the most. They had a really devastating situation. And he took that country from the most dangerous country in the Western hemisphere to one of, if not the safest. It's crazy, the turnaround that Bukele has been able to orchestrate.

Carla Sands (35:53)

I was just there, and I was walking around safely on the streets at night with another woman. And so I would never have been able to do that just five years ago. He's really amazing.

Vince (36:02)

So tell me about Greenland. What did we achieve this week?

Carla Sands (36:04)

Greenland. So it's such a win for the American people, what President Trump has done. He has gotten the access that we need without what. It's a framework. So I. I can't get ahead of their negotiations. But my understanding is that we will be able to do anything anywhere that we will lock up the mineral rights there. Russia and China are out, including drilling for energy that I'm sure that we'll have to impose a kind of access to the energy if we want to drill, because there's a lot of oil up there that the Greenlanders have signed on to. The Green New Deal kind of ideas with the UN Sustainable goals. So they're, they, they wear the little round pin, you know, the round pin with the colors. That's like a demonic pin of how they're going to have global communism, the UN, UN agenda 30 now goals. But, but we will be able to have US sovereignty on those bases like any base around the world. The, the, some of the, the stumbling blocks will be to make sure that we don't have to consult with both the Greenlanders and the Danes as we do stuff. It takes too much time. We're now living in a world that moves very quickly, especially our adversaries. They don't have to go through trial.

Vince (37:21)

I, it seems like my impression is that Trump's not going to settle for having to, to seek permission to do things in what is considered U.S. sovereign territory. So my, my hunch is that this deal is not only do we have sovereignty, we have real sovereignty over that space in Greenland.

Carla Sands (37:36)

Yes. And I'm not sure what they're going to call it. Vince. We'll see if this is a COFA or what this is, which is a free association pact like we have with Pull out and Micronesia. I'm just not sure, but it sounds like he's, and I'm not getting ahead of the President, but it does sound like he's letting the Danes save face and still say that it's Danish territory. I think so, because that makes them an Arctic player. Even though they can't afford to develop it or they can't afford to develop it or defend it and never have been able to. They just don't have the interest or the, or the capacity.

Vince (38:10)

So the people of Greenland, I realize that, you know, everyone's got opinions about this and like, oh, the United States shouldn't do this, but in the end, the people of Greenland should be very grateful that they're in our sphere of protection. I mean, I would think that they are thrilled that they can rely on dog sled teams because in the end, the United States has a real military force to defend this hemisphere like Canada. They have to be very grateful that we are a part of protecting them.

Carla Sands (38:36)

Well, look at the Prime Minister of Canada and how he's talking, even though he's under our protection blanket. And you can see that people are not always grateful. In fact, they can be ungrateful for what they receive from the United States taxpayers. And in that case, if you've ever been in a neighborhood where a lot of people are on welfare, you can kind of get the idea of how the Greenlanders operate because they receive 20% of their budget yearly from Denmark, a $600 million transfer. Now, Denmark's benefited financially a lot. They took out, I think it's almost $30 billion in cryolite over the years from Greenland. And many, they have their hands in other businesses in Greenland, so they benefit financially. But they send this welfare payment of $600 million every year to the Greenlanders. And without it, the Greenlanders wouldn't have kind of the, the very comfortable lives that they have. They run it too, you know, so they run the foreign policy and the defense policy. I suspect we will be running the defense policy, I suspect, going forward. And by the way, everything I say is in my personal capacity, not in any affiliation with any group.

Vince (39:49)

Right.

Carla Sands (39:49)

I only speak for myself. But, but I think that the Greenlanders are. This is going to be hard for the Greenlanders because they actually wanted to go independent. But if you can imagine 57,000 people, so the size of a regular sized town living on the world's largest island, where the part that's not covered in ice is bigger than California, and they wanted to be independent. They have no ability to defend themselves, no money to develop themselves. So they were really looking for a big, strong partner. And they talked to the U.S. they also talked to China. China tried to bring them into their Belt and Road initiative, and the US Shut that down.

Vince (40:29)

So, in summary, how big of a deal is President Trump's achievement here?

Carla Sands (40:33)

It's amazing. He, you know, what he did, and your viewers could go and watch, you know, listen to on Audible or buy a book, the, the Art of the Deal that President Trump wrote decades ago. And it's his negotiating style. And I say this to, you know, to the European world leaders that get their hair on fire every time he says something, I'm like, read the book the Art of the Deal, take a deep breath and then get in the room with him and negotiate because what you're doing isn't helpful. It's unhelpful. But it's going to be interesting to see how the Greenlanders swallow this pill of this is going to be different. And they are not in charge.

Vince (41:11)

Hilarious. I mean, good for us, but hilarious to look, look for that because it's.

Carla Sands (41:16)

Part of the Golden Dome. It's part of, you know, the Star wars of Ronald Reagan's day, the Iron Dome of Israel. This is the 21st century version with this golden Dome President Trump is building with Alaska and Greenland as part of it. He's going to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on this. But this is all for us.

Vince (41:32)

Yes, it is. All right. Carlos Sands, former ambassador to Denmark for our great country. Thank you so much.

Carla Sands (41:37)

Appreciate you having me.

Vince (41:39)

Good to talk to you. There she is, CARLOS Sands, Nice to have her. We'll talk to her again sometime. It's, yeah. So it's a good deal. So, you know, there's like, I just love the news coverage of all of it. Like people crapping on Trump, scared he's going to invade Greenland. And then when he gets a deal, they're like, oh, it's not even that big of a deal. Well, you heard from the woman who's an expert on the subject. It's a huge deal for the American people and it's about our national security. So thank you, Carla. Great to have you with us on the program today. Let's, let's get to some other great things. You know, our buddy Dan Bongino is coming back to podcasting. He'll be doing that. That's coming up on February 2nd. We're just, just two Mondays away from that. That's coming up in no time. He'll be doing that live each day, 10am Eastern time on rumble. Rumble.com bongino and of course, this program will start at 8am Each day. You'll be able to get that. Go to rumble.com Vince make sure to subscribe to the Bongino report. That's where you get directed. Rumble.com Vince and this program continues. We'll take things to the next level. It's going to be great. And I'm sprucing up the studio, too. I'm even, I'm changing the bookshelves. We're going to, we've got all sorts of plans. It's going to be wonderful. But I mentioned Dan because Dan just did a big interview with Sean Hannity and he was talking just a little, little appetizer for you. He was talking about how insane the media are and specifically he was referencing how there's all these stories coming out about the FBI and the crime rate and the media is too dim witted, too stupid to even recognize the story that they're telling. Listen to this. Here's Dan Bongino with Sean HANNITY Last night. Cut 11 watch.

Sean Hannity (43:23)

And you did say in an ex post, you've got scores to settle when.

Vince (43:29)

You get back on the air. I kind of like Dan Bongino out.

Sean Hannity (43:32)

Of a suit and very real and.

Vince (43:34)

Keeping it real like you always do.

Sean Hannity (43:36)

It sounds like you mean business.

Vince (43:38)

Want to give us a Little preview.

Dan Bongino (43:40)

Yeah, I mean, these media people, they're like a full diaper all the time. I mean, you know, I. My daughter just turned 14, so it's been about 13 years since I changed any diapers. But that's the media. Some of this story here, let me give you a perfect example. If this doesn't make you laugh. This was just today.

Vince (43:56)

Perfect timing.

Dan Bongino (43:57)

I didn't even intend to talk about this. Axios, obviously left leaning. Axios has this headline about the homicide rate being the lowest since the 1900s. I was like, wow, okay, Start reading down the article. Like, well, there's a thousand excuses as to why President Trump and his administration didn't do it. Meanwhile, I lived it. I know what we did and didn't do for these dumb asses, right? Same day, about an hour later, I see a New York Times headline, cash Patel's FBI has made America less safe. Do you dip wads even read your own headlines? Do you? I mean, are you that stupid? These are these media morons, people who've never spent a day wearing a badge, never kicked in a door, never arrested some child predator or some bank robber or some gang member. These morons don't know anything about the state, the safety status of the country. The border sealed. The military has never been stronger under the. Under Pete, Hag said. And the FBI went out and just arrested a historic number of animals off the street and the murder rate plunged. This isn't hard to figure out, but the same day, murder rates all time low. The country's less safe. Do these people even hear themselves?

Vince (45:05)

Yeah, I think that guy's got some things to get off his chest. He'll be doing that coming up February 2nd, 10:00am he's back. You will get to hear the word dip wad put back into regular rotation. I love it. Good for Dan. That's gonna be super exciting. I can't wait for it. So there he is, Dan Bontino. Let me see. We've got a lot to get to. I have to get to this Scott Besson stuff, man. Scott Besson just spent the whole week the Treasury Secretary, not only advocating for the American economy, not only mixing it up with world leaders over in Davos, but just absolutely beating the hell out of Gavin Newsom one after the other. You saw it the other day that, that Gavin Newsom, he was, he was mocking him and how stupid he is, which was a lot of fun. Well, like, I love watching Besson do this. And he didn't stop, actually. He's. He's been going on and on and on. Take a look at this. This is the, this is Gavin Newsom sitting on stage shortly after Scott Besson beat the hell out of him. And he has to answer some questions about it. Watch.

Moderator/Interviewer (46:13)

Treasury Secretary described you as Patrick Bateman meets Sparkle Beach Ken. The White House. Maybe that was this, that was the.

Vince (46:22)

US Secretary of Treasury.

Moderator/Interviewer (46:24)

I have a couple more and then, and then you can respond. The White House communications director, Director called you Gavin Newscomb and a scum. And an official White House account, you know, federal government account, described you with a, I'd say, very online sexual slur that people here probably don't want to hear at 8:30 in the morning. And you're in some sense responding in kind and fire.

J.D. Vance (46:46)

With fire.

Vince (46:46)

Do you think?

Dan Bongino (46:47)

Should you.

Moderator/Interviewer (46:47)

I mean, is that, is that kind of discourse from you, from them? Good for America? Oh, it's deeply unbecoming.

Audience Member 1 (46:52)

Come on.

Vince (46:53)

Of course it is. It's not what we should be doing. Now. One of my favorite things from that sequence as he has to endure all of the smackdowns again released by the Trump administration, is you heard the moderator refer to an online sexual slur. A very online sexual. What is he referring to an online sexual slur. What, what exactly is he talking about? Here's the answer. This is from Rapid Response 47. The failing governor of California, rampant with fraud, watches from the corner cuck chair as POTUS delivers a true master class in Davos, embarrassing the cuck chair. That's true. Gavin Newsom was seated in the corner of the room as President Trump was delivering his speech to Davos. And he was just sitting there cracking his knuckles. He had no idea what to do. He was just sitting there in the cuck chair, as the White House said in official communications. I would, I would say, I would encourage you, if you're not familiar with the phrase, don't Google it. It's not, it's probably not worth a Google. But the, the cuck chair, that was Gavin Newsom this week. And Gavin Newsom, you know what Gavin Newsom's doing to own Trump? Have you seen the move that he's pulling to try and own Trump? He's selling Trump signature knee pads. Speaking of sexual references, have you, have you seen this? He, he sells knee pads with Donald Trump's signature on them. Here, here's that moment. Watch. You know the new Trump signature series knee pads? Yeah. And they are available online. I told you, the last one sold out.

Moderator/Interviewer (48:39)

And, and I just wanted.

Vince (48:41)

This is a serious moment. It acts, but we laugh anyway. These are Available and in bulk, too.

Moderator/Interviewer (48:48)

But I want. I want to read you a couple of things the US Government has said about.

Vince (48:51)

They're available in bulk. You can buy. You can buy the knee pads in bulk, can you? You can buy the knee pads in bulk. What. What exactly are you talking about? Oh, here they are. We've got the knee pads. These are. These go to Gavin Newsom's campaign fund. It's his campaign for democracy. He sells Donald Trump knee pads. And the knee pads have Trump's signature on them. I don't. And. And they're $100 a pair. Now, I'm going to ask you a really core question here. Who is buying Donald Trump's signature knee pads from Gavin Newsom? Who's the target audience for this? Because it's not Trump supporters. Trump supporters are not donating to Gavin Newsom's campaign and buying Trump themed knee pads. I think the answer to this question is lefties. People with Trump derangement syndrome are giving Gavin Newsom $100 a pair for knee pads with Donald Trump's signature on them. I mean, are you so thoroughly dominated by Donald Trump that in order to express your anger, you buy knee pads with his name on them? So you can do what exactly? I'll let your mind wander on that. What, what, what is this supposed to be? It's, like, so poorly thought out. It is so tragically stupid. It's. It's totally believable, but it is hilariously dumb. And Scott Bessant just spoke to Politico, the Treasury Secretary, and he's not done making fun of how stupid Gavin Newsom is. Watch Scott Besson here cut 10 just in his interview with Politico talking about Gavin Newsom.

Angie Craig (50:35)

European leaders have gotten criticism from Democrats, people like Gavin Newsom. Cardi is actually one of the few people that Newsom has praised. He said he brought knee pads for some of the other European leaders that.

Carla Sands (50:50)

He thinks have been too accommodating to the president.

Audience Member 1 (50:56)

I think Gavin Newsom may be cracking up with some of these things he's saying. I think he may be over his hairdo. And being on the national stage is very different than being governor of California with no signature achievements. But to say strange things like President Trump is the Tyrannosaurus rex. What the hell does that mean? I could say Gavin Newsom is a brontosaurus with a brain the size of a walnut. And, you know, if you brought the knee pads, maybe that was for his meeting with Alex Soros. I don't know.

Vince (51:34)

Did I'm Sorry, did Scott Besson just tell a homophobic joke on stage? Oh, that's so funny. That's unreal. He's in over his hairdo. He has the brain the size of a brontosaurus, and maybe he brought those knee beds for Alex Soros. That's funny, man. That guy's got material. He's got. He's running our entire Treasury Department. He's got time to come up with great insult comedy. I thought Donald Trump was alone as an insult comic. I didn't. Scott Besson's a sleeper. Holy cow. That guy's whipped out a new superpower this week. That's really funny. I hope we hear a lot more from Scott Besson. I like that version of Scott Besson. Dark Scott Besson. Keep that going, please. That's really funny. That's. That's one of my highlights of the week. All right, before we go, I do want to focus on something very serious for you that I think matters a lot, which is if I can get back to ICE for a moment. Insofar as the left is advancing chaos, the only way they can do it is by advancing allies. They have to lie to you to increase their power. And they've been doing it over and over and over again when it comes to ICE activities. They keep spreading conspiracy theories about ICE operations and then whipping their weak and vicious minded base into a frenzy. And let me just give you a rundown of some of the big ones. These are big conspiracy theories. These are lies. These are frauds. That just happened this week alone. So let's start with the ICE used a five year old boy as bait hoax. This one's underway as we speak. This is the Democrat Party put this out yesterday. Thursday, they said in Minneapolis, ICE arrested a five year old coming home from preschool and tried to use him as human bait. His teacher describes him as a bright young student. These monsters are sick. And then they put a photo of the little boy up and they put a picture of him standing with an ICE officer with his little winter cap on. And they make it seem like ICE took this kid into custody and then tried to use him to bait illegal aliens. That's the claim that the Democrats are making now. Of course, as I point out, they're lying to you. Democrats not the only ones to do that broadly. Hillary Clinton, more specifically did that yesterday. She said enforcing the law is one thing. Terrorizing a population, using children as pawns, that's another. My heart aches for Liam Ramos and his family. And then there's Kamala Harris, who Never misses out on a chance to lie to you. She says Liam Ramos is just a baby. He should be at home with his family, not used as bait by ICE and held in a Texas detention center. I am outraged and you should be too. And then there's a Democrat congresswoman by the name of Angie Craig and she put out a pretty soulless video claiming that ICE used a five year old boy as bait. Cut four. Watch this.

Angie Craig (54:34)

So now ICE is using a five year old boy. A five year old boy. They took him and used him to lure his father out and now they've detained them both. The family doesn't know where they are. This is the worst of the damn worst. This is, this is not humanity in Minnesota, folks. If you can look at this 5 year old and actually with a straight face, still support and be silent in the face of what the Trump administration and Kristi Noem is doing. I just can't even believe this is America.

Vince (55:14)

Of course, she's just like the rest of them, lying to you. On January 20, three days ago, ICE conducted a targeted operation to arrest a man called Adrian Alexander, Alexander Canejo Arias, an illegal alien from Ecuador who was released into America by Joe Biden. And then when they approached him to take him into custody, he abandoned his own child. Law enforcement protected the kid while the other cops were chasing down the bad guy who abandoned the the child. In fact, J.D. vance explained the five year old was not arrested. He was asked by the media yesterday about this conspiracy theory and he had to smack it down. Cut five. Watch this.

J.D. Vance (56:00)

And I see this story and I'm a father of a five year old, actually a five year old little boy. And I think to myself, oh my God, this is terrible. How did we arrest a five year old? Well, I do a little bit more follow up research and what I find is that the five year old was not arrested, that his dad was an illegal alien and then they went, when they went to arrest his illegal alien father, the father ran. So the story is that ICE detained a five year old. Well, what are they supposed to do? Are they supposed to let a five year old child freeze to death? Are they not supposed to arrest an illegal alien in the United States of America? If the argument is that you can't arrest people who have violated laws because they have children, then every single parent is going to be completely given immunity to from ever being the subject of law enforcement. That doesn't make any sense. No one thinks that makes any sense. Now you, you know, there are so many of these cases like that where. If you just understand the context, yes.

Vince (56:55)

There are so many of these cases, in fact, we keep getting them because the left keeps lying about them. We got another one this past week. Remember the ICE tear gassed an innocent family in their car. Remember that? That one's a hoax, too. The family that was trying to get home from their son's basketball game. That's what CNN told us. They're trying to get home from their son's basketball game. Take a look at this headline. Minneapolis family, six children tear gassed. Tear gassed as they're trying to get home from a basketball game. Really? Is that what happened? No, it's not what happened. We now know that the family in question, the parents, were rioting with the mob for at least 45 minutes before any tear gas was deployed near their vehicle. We know this thanks to Crime Watch Minneapolis, an X account that captured all of this. And they get these images of the parents 45 minutes before with the rioters. And then they act like they were just passing through. They were coming back from a basketball game and their kids were needlessly tear gassed. They were a part of the mob. Meanwhile, that family raised nearly $200,000 from gullible lefties off of their lies. As of this morning, they have raised, let's see, $174,000 off of that lie. This propaganda continues. And of course, the left gets whipped into a frenzy and they burn and they destroy and they attack ICE officers on that basis. One more for you before we duck out today. And boy, we've got a lot. We've got a lot. You know, the ICE is entering homes without a warrant hoax. You familiar with that? The Associated Press has been advancing that this week. ICE is entering homes without warrants at all. Immigration officers assert sweeping power to enter homes without a judge's warrant, says the Associated Press. Is that really what's going on? Once again, the answer is no. DHS has administrative warrants as a result of people being given final orders of removal by actual judges. In other words, illegal aliens have been ruled after a lot of due process, completely removable from the United States of America. It is that category of illegal alien that DHS is using administrative warrants to pursue and go after. That's. That's entirely legal. There's no scandal here. In fact, JD Vance also described this, talking about how the. This is an entire hoax. Cut six. Watch this.

J.D. Vance (59:40)

But nobody is talking about doing immigration enforcement without a warrant. We're talking about different types of warrants that exist in our system. Typically what happens? Not always, but typically in the immigration, immigration system, those are handled by administrative law judges. So we're talking about getting warrants from those administrative law judges. And then of course, with other cases, you get judges or you get warrants from a judge. That's very consistent with the practice of American law. I'm sure the courts will weigh in on that. But we're never going to enter somebody's house. House without some kind of a warrant. Unless, of course, somebody's firing on an officer or they have to do something in order to protect themselves.

Vince (60:17)

The vice president write about that? Look, it's very basic. If the left had a sob story that was real, they could use to accrue power with, they'd be telling it right now. But they don't have one. So they lie to you and try to accrue power with that. I'll be back with you on Monday. We got another big show coming for you. We also have the big national radio show coming this afternoon, 12 to 3 Eastern Time, the VIN show dot com. That's where you can get your local radio listings for that. Also.
