rying to control it and probably China too. So we do have a future gigantic defense geopolitical issue with the melting ice. And I said to myself but really how important is Greenland? Like I understand the issue but really how important is Greenland? And then I called up a map. I looked at where Greenland is. I mean I knew generally where it was but your brain doesn't really process how big it is and how strategically it's located. As soon as you see it on a map and you know that the Arctic will become a contentious place I said to myself oh I get it. Yeah we probably need to own Greenland. We probably do. Now maybe we don't need to own it completely like Denmark does. Maybe we need to have some working arrangement that's as good as that.

But the other thing is that apparently Greenland is full of these rare minerals, these rare earth minerals which we need and China has a virtual monopoly on at least in terms of willingness to mine it. So what if Greenland became super vital to our mineral rare earth access so all of our technology depends on it and would be critical to the defense of the United States because you don't want a bunch of Russians taking over the Arctic Circle? I think this is real. I think this is actually probably pretty thought out and that America's control of everything in the sort of American hemisphere probably needs to be close to complete. Now obviously we don't own all the countries in our hemisphere but we certainly try to. Yeah we try to one way or another we try to. So Greenland's going to be interesting.

So now we've got Trump talking about Canada becoming a state, Panama Canal coming back to us, Greenland. It's very colonizing sounding except that it's weirdly specific. Don't think he's going to go all Hitler and form an army and try to conquer these places. I think he wants to negotiate and I think I get the feeling that Trump wants to do something like a major increase to the land mass of the United States. I feel like he wants to increase the land mass of the United States because it would be an amazing legacy right? To increase the size of a country.

60 Minutes had on somebody who said they were part of Mossad and how they booby trapped all those Hezbollah pagers made them blow up and how they did that. And if this guy's real you never know but he said that they set up companies and shell companies and they basically they have this whole artificial structure that you would never be able to identify where they have access to the supply lines of a bunch of industries. So we don't know how extensive it is but he does indicate that the world we think we're living in is not the world you think you're living in. It's mostly fake.

Meanwhile John LeFevre on X is talking about Jeff Bezos's ex-wife Mackenzie Scott. Now he says she doesn't get enough attention for the impact she's having on the world and she's put 16 billion dollars so far into equity things and racial division things and these NGOs that are trying to stifle free speech in America. Basically everything bad. Yeah so 16 billion and she doesn't have apparently strong requirements for what she gets from the money. It's more like she's just dumping huge sums of money into people who say they're on her side without much control over it. So this is all bad. It's all bad.

And so now you've got Jeff Bezos who owns the Washington Post which is the biggest source of fake news in a newspaper and then you've got his ex-wife funding all these terrible ideas that are just destructive to the country. And apparently giving away 16 billion didn't have any impact because she made 16 billion back in the time that she gave it away. So she has the same amount of money still. She's just going to keep doing it. Now if you compare Elon Musk trying to save free speech with Mackenzie Scott trying to stop it, with Elon Musk trying to end wokeness which is just racism with somebody trying to promote racism with her 16 billion, don't you wonder what kind of a bubble she's in? So somebody asked me if she could be deprogrammed and the answer is yes. Yeah I could probably do it in an hour but there's no way somebody like her would ever be alone with somebody who could deprogram her. I don't think it could ever happen. So I think she's in a bubble where everybody says you're the best. I'd like a billion dollars too. Hey I've got an organization that really needs some funding. You're the best Mackenzie. We love you. You're so good. So good. Give me money.

Honda and Nissan look like they're going to combine and become the number three automaker. The Japanese government is pressuring them to combine because apparently they don't think they can compete individually. The new stuff like the self-driving cars especially apparently they're a little bit far behind and they don't think Honda could be competitive by itself. Is that true? Did Honda fall behind in technology? I think Tesla is changing everything.

You probably want me to talk about the horrible story of the Guatemalan migrant who set a sleeping woman on fire in the New York City subway. With your permission I'm not going to talk about that. Like even just reading the title of it is too much because it looks like a crazy guy but of course is being used as a sign of how our immigration policy is broken. Now our immigration policy is broken but you don't need this one crazy guy. Would he have not been let in the country? Would she still be alive if our immigration system worked? Probably. Probably. So it's certainly a tragedy and it's certainly true that extra crime is being brought in but I just don't like using the anecdotes to make the larger point. We all understand crime's c
