This is what you wanted, Donald. Special forces from France, special forces from Denmark, special forces from Sweden, special forces from Germany, special forces from Canada, special forces from other European nations are all heading to nuke in Greenland to support the sovereignty of Greenland. This, as Donald Trump's pick to become the next ambassador to Iceland, thinks it's funny that after the United States annexes Canada and annexes Greenland, that he's going to become the governor of Iceland, and that'll become the 52nd or 53rd state. This is what this despicable regime is saying right now, and world leaders are asserting strength against Donald Trump, and Donald Trump is showing weakness.

He says that, At the request of Denmark, I have decided that France will participate in the joint exercises organized by Denmark in Greenland.
Operation Arctic Endurance. The first French military elements are already on their way. Others will follow. And a special thanks sent to France by the people of Greenland. We see the Swedish armed forces arriving in Greenland today. You have this message right here from Ulf Christensen, the leader of Sweden, the Prime Minister. Some officers from the Swedish armed forces are arriving in Greenland today. They are a part of a group of several Allied countries. Together, They will prepare upcoming phases within the framework of the Danish exercise, Operation Arctic Endurance at Denmark's request, Sweden ascending personnel from its armed forces. We're seeing posts like this, this from Orla Josen, who's on the ground there in Greenland. He posts the following as well from Nuuk. It is the flag, obviously, of Denmark, Greenland, NATO, European Union, Standing Strong, Standing United. This is what Greenland is choosing to be with. We've seen posts like this from veterans from Denmark, from the United States's war in Afghanistan and Iraq. People saying, I was willing to die. I gave everything for the US. I gave my body, my life, my future, my soul. After 9/11, when the United States invoked Article 5, Denmark lost more soldiers per capita than any other country fighting alongside the United States.
This is how the US repays them by threatening Greenland. You've seen the Premier of Greenland say, If we have to choose the United States or Denmark, we clearly choose Denmark. We are strong, we are proud, we are Greenland. We stand for our own sovereignty. We will stand with NATO for now as also part of the Kingdom of Denmark. They're respecting our sovereignty. If we have to choose, we choose Denmark, the Greenlander say. Mark Warner says, In just a year, Trump has so damaged the United States that these European countries, our allies, are sending troops into Greenland to protect against us. German reconnaissance troops in Greenland, and we are seeing these troops landing right now. Look at the Hercules landing in nuke right there. The other Hercules aircraft landed in in a nearby city of Kandahlusuk, negative one degree celsius right there. Look at some of the soldiers here from Denmark who are being transported. They're preparing for these military exercises to prepare for an invasion by the United States. We heard from the President of the European Union Commission, Vonderelaean. Here's what she has to say, Greenlanders can count on us. The EU stands firmly behind the people of Greenland and Denmark.
Watch this. Let's play this clip.
For me, it's important that the Greenlanders know, and they know this by the deeds, not only by the words, that we respect the wishes of the Greenlanders and their interests, and that they can count on us. Greenland belongs to its people. It's up to Denmark and Greenland, and only to them, to decide on matters that are concerning Denmark and Greenland. That's point number one. That's very We are in constant contact with the Danish government, also to listen to what the needs are, what the needs of the Greenlanders are, in very close contact. Greenland is part of NATO. When we are speaking about Arctic security, this is one of the core topics of NATO. We know that the glue between the Allies is the fact that there's always the clear motto, one for all, all for one.
Now, on state regime, state regime media, which calls itself Fox. Brett Baer was questioning the foreign minister of Denmark, Foreign Minister Rasmussen. And he says, So you don't think that if we offered each Greenlandic individual, each person from Greenland, $500,000. They wouldn't take our money. First off, we all know that Donald Trump will never actually pay them that money. Donald Trump is a massive fraud. His whole life is defrauding people. But the Foreign Minister of Denmark, Rasmussen, says, No, we don't believe it, and you're not going to cover our health care. In Greenland, we have a welfare state that takes care of our people. In America, you don't even have a health care system that functions right now. You don't even have subsidies anymore because Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans ripped that away. Here, play this clip. I'm just doing the math here. 56,000, they get $500,000 a person. I mean, You don't think they're going to vote to break away?
No, not at all, because I think there's no way that US will pay for a Scandinavian welfare system in Greenland, honestly speaking. You haven't introduced a Scandinavian welfare system in your own country.
But you also don't believe... More from Foreign Minister Rasmussen, who talks about it's clear that the ambitions of the United States are to conquer Greenland. We've drawn our red lines. We made it clear today. That's what happened during our meeting with JD Vance and Marco Rubia. Play this clip.
It stands crystal clear for me that the ambition, the President's ambition is on the table. Of course, we have our red lights. I mean, this is 2026. You trade with people, but you don't trade people. And there's a third way forward. And that's what we agreed today, that we will now set up this high-level working group to explore whether there's a way forward where we can accommodate, which I totally agree, the President's concern and still respect, of course, the territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark and the Greenlandic people's rights to self-determination.
This was more from Foreign Minister Rasmussen on state regime media. Play this clip. But you also don't believe the US is going to invade Greenland, do you?
No, at least I do not hope so, because that will be the end of NATO. But I want to have a more positive approach to all this. I think it's important for me to say that we share Share the concerns. That's why we are investing heavily. We haven't received any military request from US about stepping up in Greenland for the last 20 years. We have this framework from '51. We have a defense agreement. We all belong to NATO. We think that our way forward should be that we combine forces. We share the concerns to some extent, but not the methods, if I could put it that way. So on the military side- Can we talk about New Year's resolutions for a sec?

By the way, not just Special Forces. Also, we see aircraft and ships from Denmark being sent to Greenland. As well as the Special Forces. I want to point this out as well as Donald Trump looks extra weak. You have Maria Machado, Maria Karina Machado, the pro-opposition leader in Venezuela, showing up today to meet with Donald Trump at the oval office. So he has that meeting. But before that happens, yesterday, Delce Rodriguez basically took the advice of Putin, which is what Putin does before any Trump meeting with Zelenskyy, which is you speak with Donald Trump before the meeting with Zelenskyy. Here in this case, she speaks with Donald Trump before the meeting with Machado. Machado is going to embarrassingly give Donald Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, even though it's non-transferable. Delce C. Rodriguez is a brutal, repressive, authoritarian, a bad person who hates the pro-democracy, pro-opposition Venezuelan movement. The pro-opposition, the pro-democracy Venezuelans thought that Donald Trump would have a path, whether it was Edmundo González, who was the proxy of Machado when she was banned from the 2024 election by Maduro or Machado herself. But Trump doesn't want them. Trump wants his own authoritarian proxy, who's right now is working with Di Dado's Cabello, Maduro's enforcer, sending the groups that refer to themselves in Venezuela as colectivos, threatening, harassing, killing people in Venezuela.
That is what we see right now. In Donald Trump yesterday, this is Donald Trump's message to all the pro-democracy Venezuelans out there, here's what Donald Trump says. This morning, I had a very good call with the interim President of Venezuela, Delce Rodriguez. We are making tremendous progress as we help Venezuela stabilize and recover. Many topics were discussed, including oil, minerals, trade, and of course, national security. This partnership between the United States of America and Venezuela will be spectacular for all. Venezuela will soon be great and prosperous again, perhaps more so than ever before. You're propping up the authoritarian there, okay? I want to talk about Iran in a moment, too, and what's taking place. But Delcey then writes, I held a long and courteous telephone conversation with the President of the United States, Donald Trump, conducted within a framework of mutual respect in which we addressed a bilateral work agenda for the benefit of our peoples, as well as pending matters between our governments. She's going to be firmly entrenched. Trump ain't supporting elections in Venezuela. He totally sold out Machado, who was out there kissing the MAGA gangster ring and going on state regime, embarrassing herself.
That's what went down there. I want to We're going to talk about Iran now as well. Donald Trump promised the people of Iran who were protesting that he had their back. He said on January second, if there's any killings at all by the Iranian regime, Trump said that he was going to send the American military and he was going to engage in military strikes. There are different estimates of the amount of people who have died in Iran, murdered by the Ayatollah's brutal regime. That number is anywhere from the low thousands. Some say as high as 20,000. There's an Internet and overall technology blackout in Iran, so we don't know the scale and scope, but it could be 12,000, 20,000, 5,000. It is a lot. And so far, at least as of this recording, although this could change at a moment's notice, Trump has not taken the military action. According to sources, Donald Trump says he wants to deliver a swift and decisive blow to the regime, and he wants it to be definitive, and it must lead to the regime quickly collapsing. He does not want a war to drag on for weeks or months.
And the military is saying, We don't really have a good option that just takes them all out right away, you may create a massive situation there. I think there's a pause taking place as a result there. But I think it's important. If you're going out and saying, We got your back, and now thousands are getting slaughtered, I think it's something that should be addressed. But Donald Trump said yesterday that he was told that the killings in Iran have stopped. He's been told that on good authority, he says. This is what Donald Trump said yesterday. Here, play this clip.
We have been notified and pretty strongly, but we'll find out what that all means. But we were told that the killing in Iran is stopping, it's stopped, it's stopping. And There's no plan for executions or an execution or executions. I've been told that a good authority will find out about it. I'm sure if it happens, we'll all be very upset, including you, we'll be very upset. But that's just gotten to me from information that the killing has stopped, that the executions have stopped. They're not going to have an execution, which a lot of people were talking about for the last couple of days. Today was going to be the day of execution.
Okay, let's talk about what's happening in China right now, in Beijing. Prime Minister Carny just landed in Beijing. Here's what he writes, Just landed in Beijing. The relationship between Canada and China has created opportunities and prosperity on both sides of the Pacific. We're ready to build a new partnership, one that builds on the best of our past and responds to the challenges of today. The challenges of today refers to Donald Trump America's attack on multilateralism, cooperation, collaboration. Canada views China right now as a more reliable trading partner than the United States. That's the message that this is sending. Why wouldn't you, based on Donald Trump threatening to invade a NATO country right now and saying, I want it, I'm going to acquire it. Now, this meeting can result, I think, in EVs, electric vehicles coming from China into Canada. The way Canada right now has lots of factories to build American cars and buy American, imagine if those EV plants from China now start to be built in Canada, fueling the Canadian economy, American manufacturing and cars suffer. Canada brings in these cheap and these really incredible EVs that are being built in China. That's where we have China then eases its restrictions on canola and other things that are important.
China starts buying more oil from Canada, moves away from Venezuela, gets the good stuff from Canada, not that tarry stuff from Venezuela. Do you see what's unfolding before our eyes right now? I want to highlight what Jessica Tarlov had to say. Here's what Tarlov had to say on state regime. She's the one good host on state regime. Here, play this clip.
But you have a pan-European fleet coming to back up Greenland. You have the Germans and the French.
European fleet. That's the funniest thing you said all day.
No one would be happier if NATO was disbanded than Vladimir Putin. Kalyan, you say, I don't know what liberals think about Russian-China influence. Donald Trump was the one who rolled out the red carpet, quite literally for Putin, got nothing from it. Then tried again, got nothing from it. It's been those embarrassing- I'm sorry, because Putin was in those embarrassing- Because Biden was in the White House. Okay. And that's because Obama and Biden were in the White House. Not only did he not interfere in the election, but he wants what's best for Ukraine, which made everybody, including Zelensky, have to laugh out loud. Do not put this on liberals that we don't know who the real threat is. We wanted sanctions on Putin that Trump had been unwilling to do. You had folks like- What is your bigger threat to liberals? Putin or Nice.
I hate it. Don't make her answer. That was cute. Here's an exchange that she had with Jessie Waters on state regime. Let's play this clip. I just call Fox state regime. It's called state regime media, whatever. Cbs is state regime. Their state regime media. Jessica NATO called Trump Daddy. Why won't they give Daddy what he wants?
Because sometimes Daddy needs to be told no. That's just the fact on the table. I pay you. I pay by the hour for that. By anyone who has the guts to do it. It seems like the Danish Foreign Minister, the Danish Prime Minister, the head of Greenland, that they've got the stuff. They're saying NATO will disband. If this happens, it will be an attack on a NATO country.
Whose side are you on?
I'm on the side of America. Thank you. And also Greenland. Got to go. No, we can't. No, no, no. Absolutely not. Okay.
