Today was a massive day for Republicans. From the geopolitical chessboard in Greenland to the "acoustic warfare" happening in our own Congress, there is a lot to break down. Here is the report for the day.

The Greenland Strategy: Breaking the European Resistance

There is a major diplomatic battle unfolding regarding President Trump’s move to annex Greenland. The opposition—led by Denmark, the UK, France, Germany, Spain, and Poland—is forming a "bandwagon" of resistance. However, their front is weaker than it looks.

While the "Sleepy Three" (Macron, Starmer, and Scholz/Merz) are crying about international law, a silent majority including Hungary, the 3+1 Framework nations (Greece, Cyprus, Israel), and surprisingly the European Commission, are effectively siding with the Trump administration or remaining neutral.

The German Keystone

Germany is the weak link in the European blockade. Chancellor Merz is playing a dangerous game:

  • Politically: He signs letters condemning the USA stance on Greenland.
  • Militarily: He is dependent on the USA and Israel for survival against Russia, evidenced by the recent delivery of the Arrow 3 missile defense system.
  • The Strategy: We must flip Germany. If Germany withdraws support for the joint statement—perhaps in exchange for trade or missile guarantees—Denmark loses its economic shield. Without German backing, the resistance crumbles, forcing Denmark to the negotiating table for a sovereignty transfer.

    The "Acoustic Trojan Horse": Weaponized Boredom

    I have developed a new ranking system for the psychological warfare being used by the Left. I call it the Acoustic Trojan Horse. Democrats and certain judges are using monotony, soft-spoken delivery, and rhythmic repetition to induce a trance-like state of compliance. This is sedation, not governance.

    The Sedative Scan Profile:

    • The Automaton: Adam Schiff.
    • The Subliminal Bureaucrat: Rep. Elaine Luria. Uses a flat mumble to cloak authority in boredom.
    • The Silencer: Judge Tony Graff (Charlie Kirk case). Restricts visual access while using a "soothing" voice to pacify the media and strip rights.
    • The Drone: Merrick Garland.
    • The Counter-Measure:

      We need "Arousal Agitators" like Jim Jordan (The Machine Gun). Their high-variance, staccato delivery breaks the sedative spell and keeps Americans engaged!

      Ron DeSantis: The Sunshine State’s Silent Broker

      I published an article today challenging Governor DeSantis on his proposed stock bans. While he is right about ESG and woke capitalism, his approach to the stock market is flawed.

      1. Financial Illiteracy: DeSantis has zero public record of understanding the retail trading revolution (e.g., Roaring Kitty/GameStop). He has a blind spot for the microcap market.
      2. Statist Portfolio: By telling Congress to own cash and government bonds rather than American business stocks, he is encouraging investment in the national debt, not American innovation.
      3. The Constitutional Contradiction: He pushes a "28th Amendment" (Congress must live by the same laws as citizens) while simultaneously proposing a stock ban only for Congress. You cannot have both.
      4. The Massie Ultimatum: A Demand for Accountability

        Representative Thomas Massie, an MIT alumnus, conducted a poll on X last year regarding War Powers that I allege was heavily manipulated by bots (foreign?).

        This is a national security issue. MIT receives billions in Federal defense funding (Lincoln Laboratory) specifically for AI and cybersecurity research.1 If MIT cannot verify whether their own high-profile alumnus is being puppeted by adversarial bots, they are not compliant with security standards.

        The Plan: Flag MIT for non-compliance. Pause their funding until they perform an audit on the digital influence campaign surrounding Massie poll(s). We cannot fund institutions that turn a blind eye to digital warfare against our officials.

        News Roundup & Quick Hits
        • January 6th: The Democrats’ event today was unpatriotic and ugly. Conversely, the Proud Boys held a respectful march in remembrance of Ashli Babbitt.
        • Venezuela: President Trump announced Venezuela will provide 50 million barrels of oil to the U.S. at market price—money controlled by Trump—to replenish the SPR decimated by Biden, amongst other uses. Meanwhile, South Africa’s Ramaphosa is acting as a Putin puppet, calling for Maduro’s release.
        • Immigration Enforcement: We need a "scorched earth" strategy for ICE. Like a circus coming to town, ICE should hit a city (like Minneapolis or Ashland, Oregon), clear the streets of fraud, criminals, and illegal aliens over a few days, certify the area as safe, and move to the next city.
        • Tech & Censorship: Republicans need to be careful with "child safety" online bills. As seen in the UK and Australia, this leads to banning social media and enforcing state-approved information sources.
        • Crime: Judge Jeanine Pirro gave the best speech of the day regarding DC crime stats. Elsewhere, an Atlanta deputy was arrested for stealing guns from the Sheriff's office—proof that the "war zone" issues in Atlanta run deep.
        • Senate Leadership: John Thune’s media machine is failing. It is nearly impossible to find clips of his briefings on YouTube due to poor SEO and algorithm suppression. This needs to be fixed immediately.
