Will Rand Paul et al Apologize to President Trump For Standing In the Way of a Greenland Deal?

The strategic importance of the United States acquiring Greenland centers on its critical role in Arctic security, missile defense, and global trade routes amidst increasing competition with Russia and China. Makes you wonder why Democrats, legacy media and Trump-haters like Rand Paul were so adamantly opposed.

After all, Trump’s critics like Rand Paul lack vision, unlike President Trump. They love to do the same thing, over and over again, expecting different results.  They to read the room. 

“Now, after Centuries, it is time for Denmark to give back — World Peace is at stake! China & Russia want Greenland, & there is not a thing that Denmark can do about it... The United States of America is immediately open to negotiation with Denmark and/or any of these Countries...” - President Trump

Now that a framework of a future deal regarding Greenland is in the books, will Rand Paul et al apologize?

The Deal As a Piece Of Art 

In January 2026, President Trump announced he had reached a "framework of a future deal" regarding 
Greenland after meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in Davos, Switzerland.

The terms and core components of this framework include:

Security and Military Access: The deal emphasizes "total access" for the U.S. military to counter Russian and Chinese influence in the Arctic. This includes the potential establishment of new "defense areas" and upgrades to existing facilities like Pituffik Space Base.

"Golden Dome" Missile Defense: Trump specified that Greenland would be a central component of his proposed "Golden Dome" (a multi-layered missile defense system inspired by Israel's Iron Dome) to protect North America from aerial threats.

Mineral Rights: The framework includes provisions for U.S. access to Greenland’s vast rare-earth mineral deposits, which are critical for defense technology and reducing reliance on China. Some reports suggest a ban on non-NATO countries (specifically Russia and China) from mining these resources.

Sovereign Base Areas (Proposed): U.S. officials have floated the idea of creating "pockets of American soil" in Greenland, modeled after the British sovereign base areas in Cyprus, though this remains a major point of contention for Danish and Greenlandic leaders.

Withdrawal of Tariff Threats: As a condition of this framework, Trump withdrew his threat to impose 10% to 25% punitive tariffs on eight European nations (including Denmark and the UK) that had opposed the acquisition of Greenland.

NATO Role: The agreement involves an enhanced role for NATO in the Arctic, potentially through a new mission dubbed "Arctic Sentry" to bolster collective security in the region. 

Negotiations are ongoing, led on the U.S. side by Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Missile Defense and Early Warning
"Golden Dome" Shield: The Trump administration views Greenland as a cornerstone for its proposed "Golden Dome" missile defense system, a multibillion-dollar initiative designed to intercept threats over the Arctic, which is the shortest missile path to the U.S. mainland.

The island hosts Pituffik Space Base
(formerly Thule), a vital facility for the U.S. Space Force that provides early warning for ballistic missiles and space surveillance.


Countering Russia and China: The U.S. aims to curb Russian military expansion—which has included reopening over 50 Soviet-era Arctic bases—and China’s "Polar Silk Road" ambitions.


Greenland is essential for controlling the GIUK Gap
(Greenland-Iceland-UK), a strategic maritime corridor necessary for monitoring Russian submarine movements entering the North Atlantic.


Northern Command Transition: In June 2025, the U.S. shifted Greenland from European Command to Northern Command, signaling its status as a primary asset for homeland defense.


Natural Resources and Critical Minerals:
Rare Earth Elements (REEs): Greenland holds some of the world's largest untapped deposits of rare earth minerals (estimated at 1.5 million metric tonnes), which are essential for high-tech manufacturing, electric vehicles, and military hardware.


Acquisition of Greenland would allow the U.S. to secure these minerals and break its dependence on China, which currently dominates the global REE supply chain.


The island may hold significant offshore oil and gas reserves, and its ice sheet contains roughly 20% of the world's fresh water.


Future Shipping Routes. As Arctic ice melts, new routes like the Northwest Passage and the
Transpolar Sea Route are becoming navigable. These could shorten transit times between Europe and Asia by up to 40%, potentially bypassing the Suez and Panama Canals.


Controlling Greenland would allow the U.S. to manage these emerging global "shipping highways" and prevent adversaries from establishing physical chokepoints.
Current Status and 2026 Context
As of early January 2026, the White House has described acquiring Greenland as a "national security priority". While Danish and Greenlandic leaders have repeatedly stated the island is "not for sale," the Trump administration has not ruled out economic pressure or military options to secure the territory.

Don Lemon and psychological terrorism

In the post-truth age, when the one who yells the loudest and or hosts the the most violent protest 'wins' the argument. Potty-mouth @grey4626 speaks lucidly and with clarity about Don Lemon et al.

As MacIntyre would say "It is easy... to understand why protest becomes a distinctive moral feature of the modern age and why indignation is a predominant modern emo-tion.... The self-assertive shrillness of protest arises because the facts of incommensurability ensure that protestors can never win an argument; the indignant self-righteousness of protest arises because the facts of incom-mensurability ensure equally that the protestors can never lose an argument either. Hence... protest is characteristically addressed to those who already share the protestors' premises.... Protestors rarely have anyone else to talk to but themselves. This is not to say that protest cannot be effective; it is to say that it cannot be rationally effective and that its dominant modes of expression give evidence of a certain perhaps unconscious awareness of this." 16

In January 2026, former CNN host Don Lemon became the center of a national controversy after livestreaming an anti-ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) Psychological act of terrorism that disrupted a worship service at 
Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Lemon livestreamed the event for several hours, entering the sanctuary with dozens of activists while a service was in progress. Video footage showed terrorists chanting "Justice for Renee Good"

@grey4626

@grey4626 writes "Imagine this: a pack of raging, self-righteous lunatics...led by none other than washed-up CNN clown Don Lemon...storm a church in St. Paul on a Sunday morning. They scream profanities, chant accusations, physically block the stairs so terrified parents can't reach their little kids trapped in Sunday School.

One woman gets her arm broken in the chaos.

But it gets worse.

Far  worse. These cowardly bullies get in the faces of crying children...CHILDREN...and hiss that their moms and dads are "Nazis" who are going to burn in hell.

One little boy, shaking, tells his father, "Daddy, I thought you were going to die."

This isn't protest. This is psychological terrorism.

This is deliberate, sadistic trauma inflicted on the most vulnerable to feed their own twisted moral superiority.

They weaponize fear, exploit innocence, because deep down these people are hollow...empty vessels who can only feel alive by destroying what they hate: faith, family, decency.

The DOJ affidavit lays it bare: widespread, lasting trauma. Kids haunted. Parents helpless. And these monsters did it on purpose.

This is the modern left's endgame...pure venom disguised as justice. They don't debate. They don't persuade. They terrorize. Especially the weak. Especially the innocent. If you can read those victim statements and not feel white-hot rage, check your pulse.

These people are not redeemable. They are predators.

And if the system lets them walk? Then the system is complicit. Burn this into your mind: they came for a church. They came for children. Next time, it could be yours. Never forgive. Never ever  forget."

The Justice system is not about justice, but about social control. No consequences, no change. As if nothing happened.  Fact-checkers, including X will come to the same conclusion

If Obama, Brennan,  Clapper,  Comey, Wray, Garland,  Schiff, Schumer, Pelosi et al are not arrested, it's as if nothing happened.

Recall Kash saying: "This is a guy who threatened President Trump’s life using the “86 47” language — the exact kind of copy cat law enforcement is now frequently dealing with after former Director Comey’s destructive Instagram debacle" -

Why is it Comey, @mjfree, @EdKrassen, Gretchen Whitmer, Democrats et al are not under arrest? - Because 'nothing happened ' @Grok agrees.

The score at the end of the 1st Quarter says Lemon will get away with an act of psychological terrorism

But it's not just Lemon. It'd Democrats and the legacy media. 

As Grey tells Amy Klobuchar:  "Amy, on your unhinged, trembling-voice meltdown, you just admitted the quiet part out loud: "We're focused on getting ICE out of our state" and "this is not the America that is ours." Translation: Minnesota isn't part of the United States anymore...at least not in the Democrat fever dream where federal law doesn't apply if it hurts your open-borders cult.

You're not just defying immigration enforcement. You're openly declaring that your little progressive fiefdom gets to opt out of the Constitution whenever it inconveniences the illegal aliens you're shielding. This is textbook nullification, the same poisonous logic that tore the country apart in 1860, now repackaged with fake tears and sanctimonious nonesense about "siege" and "chaos."

You're not protecting communities.

You're protecting criminals, trafficking networks, and your own political-self while law-abiding citizens get terrorized by the fallout of your deliberate border collapse.

Psychologically? This is pure projection and narcissistic rage. You can't control the consequences of the policies you cheered for, so you scream at the people cleaning up your mess and demand they leave.

Forget your selective sovereignty.

Forget your emotional blackmail.

Minnesota is America. ICE is America.

The rule of law is America. And no mid-tier senator having a public breakdown gets to carve out a lawless enclave just because her voters prefer feelings over borders. Go away, Amy. The Republic stands. Your tantrum doesn't change that.

The piece would be incomplete if the Deporter in Chief, Barrack Hussain Obama was not included.

In Grey's flowery language; " Oh, the audacity of this grifter. Barack Obama...architect of racial division, master of the perpetual grievance machine...slithers out of his multimillion-dollar compound to lecture “every American” to “draw inspiration” from the Minneapolis anti-ICE mobs.

The same Barack Obama who deported over THREE MILLION people, earning the well-deserved title “Deporter-in-Chief” from his own side, now cosplays as the noble resistor against “oppression.” These aren’t “peaceful protests,” you narcissistic snake.

They’re organized obstruction...rioters impeding federal agents, creating chaos, escalating confrontations that end in tragedy. And you pour gasoline on it because chaos is your native language.

Division is your oxygen. You don’t care about Alex Pretti or any American life. You care about relevance. About stoking the tribal rage that keeps your cult obedient and your enemies bleeding. Classic psychopath move: project your own authoritarian impulses onto the people actually enforcing the law.

Forget your sanctimonious word salad.   your selective outrage and the poisonous legacy you keep injecting into America’s veins. We see you, Barry. We always  see you."

Globalists, Democrats, Socialists, Muslims and the mainstream media are thrilled eight Senate Republicans are holding the line in opposition to the SAVE Act.

According to sources, globalists, Democrats, Socialists, Muslims and the mainstream media are thrilled eight Senate Republicans are holding the line in opposition to the SAVE Act.
They refer to these Eight Republicans as the Great Karmic Equalizer: they can stop every illegal activity and these Eight Republicans will guarantee Democrats will control the US Government for decades: its not hyperbole: Current legislative activity in Virginia following the 2025 elections involves a Democratic-controlled General Assembly pursuing a mainstream progressive agenda.

These Republicans have expressed opposition or reluctance to advance the bill without bipartisan support or by altering Senate rules (e.g., ending the filibuster). These senators are:
• Susan Collins (ME)
• Lisa Murkowski (AK)
• Rand Paul (KY)
• Mitch McConnell (KY)
• Thom Tillis (NC)
• Todd Young (IN)
• Chuck Grassley (IA)
• Jerry Moran (KS)
Their reported reasons for opposition include Federal overreach into state elections. Despite the fact that the U.S. Constitution clearly states that Congress may regulate elections

Insiders  with a Motive have Means and Opportunity (#MOM) to commit any crime. Failure to enact the SAVE Act will guarantee Republicans lose midterm elections and impeach President Trump, the one person they hate the most. Why Democrats call 📞 these 8 Republicans
the Great Karmic Equalizer


U.S. Secret Service veteran agent Thomas Escotto  assigned to Vice President JD Vance’s protective detail was sharing sensitive security details and expressing opposition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations.

Riverside County Sheriff caught with 100 pounds of fentanyl was working for El Chapo’s cartel

Something similar happens when we vote - the difference is that it's next to impossible to convict a government insider.

As long as the Inside Threat is not addressed, there won't be election integrity

The SAVE Act

The SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act) is proposed federal legislation designed to require documentary proof of citizenship (DPOC) for anyone registering to vote in U.S. federal elections.

Key ProvisionsProof of Citizenship:

 To register or update a registration (e.g., due to a move or name change), voters would need to provide specific documents such as a U.S. passport, birth certificate, or naturalization papers.

Restrictions on Identification:

 Standard driver's licenses and most "REAL IDs" would not be sufficient on their own because they typically do not indicate citizenship status.

In-Person Requirements: The bill effectively requires these documents to be presented in person, which critics argue would dismantle online and mail-in registration systems.

Voter Roll Maintenance: It mandates that states establish programs to identify and remove noncitizens from existing voter rolls.

Penalties: The act establishes criminal penalties (up to five years in prison) for election officials who register individuals without the required proof.

Status & SupportCongressional Action: As of January 2026, the bill (H.R. 22) has passed the House but remains stalled in the Senate.

Executive Action: President Donald Trump issued an executive order in March 2025 mirroring these requirements, though its interaction with potential legislation remains complex.

Arguments for: Supporters, argue the bill is necessary to ensure election integrity and prevent noncitizens from voting.

Opponents, including many voting rights organizations, contend that noncitizen voting is already illegal and extremely rare. They argue the law would disenfranchise millions of eligible citizens, particularly married women with name changes, students, and low-income individuals who may lack easy access to birth certificates.p These people also disingenuously

say

Illegal aliens don’t vote.

Illegal aliens don't have a criminal

Illegal aliens don’t get $300k taxpayer funded jobs.

Illegal aliens don’t get issued commercial driving licenses.

Illegal aliens don’t receive free healthcare.

The Biden’s border was closed and there was no flood of illegals on his watch.

When these people tell you illegals aren’t getting government healthcare show them this.

Claiming that people can't figure out how to get ID cards is what CNN calls a "success cynical strategy"

No different than Gavin Newsom and progressives claiming community college students are too stupid to figure out which courses to take, so they can transfer to the California Univeristy System.

You see, progressives argue that VoterID places a heavy burden on the elderly, disabled and or needy. 

But the elderly, disabled and needy are required to provide a photo ID to be eligible for assistance, including foodstamps, VA benefits, disability, senior assistance & so on.
Unless the applicant uses corrupt intermediaries or are well connected politically, they'll have to jump thru hoops to get the help they need.

Netflix's The Maid, can give  you an idea of what the elderly, disabled and needy go through.

Mass migration is not compassion as these people and the media wants you to believe. It's human Trafficking.

The country was nearly destroyed by mass migration. These people seek "peace and prosperity" via "democracy," but in reality, the only way they can achieve this is to subdue the entire Western world into silence and compliance. Tyranny is ingrained into the DNA of globalists. These people have not gone anywhere. These people
are doubling down if anything. All that comes back in an instant the moment they get back in power.

But these people, like Lucy, are masters of the "fine print" when it comes to Lucy's vows and the Eight Karmic Equalizers, like Charlie Brown fall for it every time.

During the Biden-Harris administration, over 11,000 migrant children were placed with unvetted sponsors who were not their parent or legal guardian, without receiving a background check based on fingerprints. Additionally, tens of thousands of children were potentially placed in unsafe situations due to lapses in vetting procedures by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).

It's not about what the law says.  It's how the law is, or is not enforced.  The Justice system is not about justice, but about social control. No consequences, no change. As if nothing happened.  Fact-checkers, including X come to the same conclusion. If Obama, Brennan,  Clapper,  Comey, Wray, Garland,  Schiff, Schumer, Pelosi et al are not arrested, it's as if nothing happened.

Recall FBI Dorector Kash saying: "This is a guy who threatened President Trump’s life using the “86 47” language — the exact kind of copy cat law enforcement is now frequently dealing with after former Director Comey’s destructive Instagram debacle" -Why is it Comey, @mjfree, @EdKrassen, Gretchen Whitmer, Democrats et al are not under arrest?

The end of the 1st Quarter and it's a rout.

Great Karmic Equalizer

The significance of the number 8
spans mathematical properties, deep-rooted cultural beliefs, and various religious interpretations, often symbolizing new beginnings, abundance, and infinity.

 
Spiritual and Religious Significance
Frequently symbolizes resurrection and new beginnings. Notable instances include the eight people saved on Noah's Ark, the requirement for male circumcision on the eighth day, and Jesus' resurrection occurring on the eighth day (the first day of the new week).

Buddhism: Represented by the Noble Eightfold Path, the core guide to spiritual wisdom and liberation.

 Hinduism: Associated with Ashta Lakshmi (eight forms of the goddess Lakshmi representing different types of wealth) and Ashtanga Yoga (the eight-limbed path to liberation).

The eighth day (Shemini Atzeret) following the seven-day festival of Sukkot represents a "supernatural" step beyond the natural order.

 
Chinese Culture: Considered the luckiest number because its pronunciation (ba) sounds similar to the word for prosperity or wealth (fa). Business events and building addresses often prioritize the number 8 to attract good fortune.

Japanese Culture: Traditionally a holy number representing abundance; the kanji character for eight (八) widens at the bottom, symbolizing a path that broadens toward prosperity.

The Economic Disparity Between Muslim-majority countries and Christian-majority Fuels the Muslim Fertility Engine

The economic status of the world's approximately 50 Muslim-majority nations is characterized by extreme disparity, ranging from some of the wealthiest nations per capita to several of the poorest globally. 

That disparity is fueling the Muslim Fertility Engine. By 2050, Islam is projected to nearly equal Christianity in total population, with approximately 2.8 billion Muslims (30% of the world) compared to 2.9 billion Christians (31%).

The Fertility Engine

The primary driver of this growth is natural demographic change rather than conversion.

 
Muslims have the highest average fertility rate at 3.1 children per woman, significantly above the Christian average of 2.7 and the global replacement level.

In 2010, 34% of the global Muslim population was under the age of 15, compared to 27% of Christians. This youthful "engine" ensures sustained growth as these individuals enter childbearing years.

 

Economic Participation & Migration

The economic and geographic landscape of these religions is also shifting:

 
Economic Participation: Muslim-majority nations often show lower average economic participation, particularly for women. For instance, the female work participation rate for Muslim women has been recorded as low as 14.77% in some regions, compared to over 32% for Christian women.

Global Wealth Gap:

 As of 2015, Christians held roughly 55% of total global wealth, while Muslims held 5.8%. This disparity is partly due to the geographic concentration of Christians in developed Western economies and Muslims in rapidly developing regions like sub-Saharan Africa and Asia.

Migration Patterns: 

While fertility is the main driver, migration is expected to increase the Muslim share of the population in regions like Europe, where they are projected to make up 10% of the population by 2050. Conversely, many historically Christian-majority nations, such as the UK, France, and Australia, are projected to lose their Christian majorities by mid-century.

1. Economic Disparity and Key Groupings

Muslim-majority countries generally fall into three distinct economic categories: 

• High-Income Oil Producers: Nations like 
  Qatar
  , the 
  United Arab Emirates (UAE)
  , and 
  Kuwait
   rank among the world's richest due to massive oil and gas reserves. 
  Qatar
   currently leads with a GDP per capita at PPP exceeding $118,000.
• Emerging Markets & Diversified Economies: Countries such as 
  Indonesia
  , 
  Turkey
  , 
  Malaysia
  , and 
  Kazakhstan
   have more diversified industrial and service sectors. 
  Indonesia
   has the largest total economy (GDP) among Muslim nations, exceeding $1.5 trillion.
• Low-Income & Conflict-Affected: Nations like 
  Somalia
  , 
  Yemen
  , and 
  Syria
   face severe poverty and economic instability, often exacerbated by prolonged conflict and environmental crises. 
  Somalia's
   GDP per capita is approximately $461, one of the lowest in the world. 

2. Global Economic Indicators (2024–2026)

• Global GDP Contribution: While Muslims make up over 25% of the world population (2 billion people), the 57 member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) account for only about 10% of global GDP.
• Halal Economy Growth: The global "halal economy"—including food, Islamic finance, and pharmaceuticals—is a major growth driver. Consumer spending in these sectors reached $2.43 trillion in 2023 and is projected to hit $3.36 trillion by 2028.
• Islamic Finance: This sector is currently valued at nearly $5 trillion, with 
  Saudi Arabia
  , 
  Iran
  , and 
  Malaysia
   holding roughly 95% of the world's Sharia-compliant assets. 

3. Major Economic Challenges

• Unemployment & Demographics: Many Muslim-majority countries have very young populations. High youth unemployment is a critical issue in North Africa and the Middle East, where economies struggle to create enough jobs for the rising workforce.
• Income Inequality: Wealth is heavily concentrated; over half of the OIC's total GDP wealth is found in just two countries: 
  Saudi Arabia
   and the 
  UAE
  .
• Institutional Weakness: Corruption, weak rule of law, and a lack of economic freedom are frequently cited as barriers to sustainable growth in lower-income Muslim states. 

Top 5 Largest Muslim Economies (GDP Nominal, Est. 2024)

1. Indonesia
   : $1.529 Trillion
2. Turkey
   : $1.437 Trillion
3. Saudi Arabia
   : $1.114 Trillion
4. United Arab Emirates
   : $568 Billion
5. Malaysia
   : $488 Billion 

When comparing the economic status of Muslim-majority and Christian-majority nations, the primary distinction lies in the concentration of global wealth and institutional stability. While both groups contain high-income and low-income outliers, the collective economic profile of Christian-majority nations remains significantly larger.

1. Global Wealth & GDP Share

• Total Wealth Distribution: As of 2025, Christians hold roughly 55% of the total world wealth, while Muslims hold approximately 5.8%.
• GDP Contribution: Christian-majority nations, particularly in North America and Western Europe, represent a dominant share of global GDP. In contrast, the 57 nations of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) contribute roughly 8–10% of global GDP, despite representing over 25% of the world's population.
• Economic Scale: The combined GDP (PPP) of OIC countries reached $28.1 trillion in 2024, whereas the United States alone (a Christian-majority nation) exceeded $28 trillion in the same period. 

2. Income Levels and Inequality

• Per Capita Income: Christian-majority nations make up about 78% of countries with a GDP per capita exceeding $10,000.
• Extreme Disparity: While resource-rich Muslim nations like 
  Qatar
   have some of the highest per capita incomes globally, many others fall into the lowest income brackets. Christian-majority countries also show disparity—such as the gap between 
  Norway
   and 
  Haiti
  —but the average financial inclusion index remains higher in Christian-majority nations.
• Concentrated Wealth: Wealth in the Muslim world is highly concentrated in dynastic fortunes; for example, three ruling families in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar control a combined $749 billion. 

3. Institutional and Growth Factors

• Governance: Research indicates that Christian-majority nations generally score higher on indices for political stability, rule of law, and corruption control.
• Growth Projections: Muslim-majority nations are currently experiencing faster growth rates, projected at 4.5% for 2025–2026, compared to the slower, more mature growth of Christian-majority Western economies.
• Demographics: The Muslim world has a younger, faster-growing population, which presents both a "demographic dividend" for future growth and a challenge for job creation.
