🚨 BREAKING: Major political UPSET in Greenland as center-right party wins election. Anti-American leftists OUT, pro-business reformers IN.

Here's what you need to know... 🧵 Image
1/ The Demokraatit party just SHOCKED everyone with a massive victory, jumping from 9% to 30% of the vote. They're replacing the anti-American leftists who kept saying "Greenland's not for sale." 🗳️ Image
2/ Let's be CLEAR: This is a HUGE shift. While the old guard was busy shouting "NO" at everything American, the new leadership is talking about "business" and "pragmatic cooperation." 💼 Image
3/ Trump's been crystal clear: "We need Greenland for national security." He's offering BILLIONS in investment, to an island with only 57,000 people, but that's bigger than the Louisiana Purchase.

That means job opportunities and prosperity Denmark has NOT delivered. Image
4/ IMPORTANT CONTEXT: 4 out of 5 major parties want independence from Denmark. The debate isn't IF, it's WHEN. Now a pro-business party is in the driver's seat. 🔑

But Trump's plan likely INCLUDES independence! Same as our deals with Micronesia, the Marshall Islands and Palau. Image
5/ Trump's plan could mean:

- Massive financial aid and U.S. investment💰
- U.S. passports and social services for Greenlanders 🛂
- Defense protection 🛡️
- Employment for Greenland's impoverished youth 📈 Image
6/ The TRUTH? This isn't about "buying" Greenland. It's about strategic partnership and mutual benefit.

And with anti-American leftists OUT of power, everything is now on the table. 🌐 Image
7/ The Enemedia touts a poll done by DENMARK (Greenland's colonial overlord) claiming 85% of Greenlanders oppose the U.S.

But that's propaganda, as the election just showed... Image
8/ A different poll found almost the OPPOSITE: 57% SUPPORT a deal with the U.S. And the younger you are, the more you support it.

I did a whole video on this. You should watch it.
9/ Remember: Trump already picked my friend @KenHowery as Ambassador to Denmark. Ken called Greenland "an absolute necessity."

Now the pieces are falling into place... Image

🧵@GovRonDeSantis just called a special session to abolish property taxes on Florida homes

If you must pay the state every year just to stay in the house you own outright…

You don’t own it. You rent it.

Florida is beginning the end of feudalism in America. 🧵 Image
2/ An 91-year-old widow paid off her house 40 years ago.

All across America, one missed property tax payment and the state can take her home and put her on the street.

Her home — the one she owns free and clear — can be taken because she “owes rent” to the government.

That’s not ownership. That’s serfdom. It’s immoral.Image
@GovRonDeSantis 3/ Critics scream "lost revenue". They lie.

Pay a visible, one-time sales tax at the closing table — then you own it.

No annual "rent". No reassessment because you improved your property.

When you pass the home to your children, it’s love and legacy — not a taxable event. Image

🧵Democrats still cite Sweden as proof socialism works.

They’re lying.

The real Sweden survived by rejecting socialism — abolishing wealth taxes, protecting capital, expanding school choice, and becoming one of the world’s great startup nations.

Here’s the story they hope you never hear. 🧵Image
2/ By 1990, Sweden was a warning, not a model.

Bloated government. Banking collapse. Currency crisis. Public debt nearing 80% of GDP.

Socialism had run out of other people’s money.

Sweden hit the wall — then chose to change course instead of digging deeper. Image
3/ The reset was serious and bipartisan.

The 1991–94 center-right government began it. Social Democrats continued the reforms.

Together they made the central bank independent, imposed real spending ceilings, reformed pensions into a sustainable system, and created nationwide school vouchers.

Even the left admitted the old model was killing the country.Image

🧵Justice Clarence Thomas just explained why Progressivism is collapsing — and why the only fight that now matters is what will replace it.

One of the rare speeches that's truly important.

This thread breaks it down. 🧵 Image
2/ The core message: Progressivism is dying because it is fundamentally opposed to the American idea.

The Declaration of Independence did not create government. It stated its purpose: to protect God-given inalienable rights that all individuals equally possess.

Those ideas were powerful enough to end slavery and segregation. They cannot coexist forever with Progressivism.
3/ At the beginning of the 20th century, a foreign set of principles entered American life.

Woodrow Wilson and the Progressives imported them from Otto von Bismarck’s Germany — a centralized system Wilson openly admired and called “nearly perfected.”

To Wilson, inalienable rights were “a lot of nonsense.”

He redefined liberty as whatever the government decides the people need.Image

🧵On paper, America has 11 aircraft carriers.

Trump has used American naval power more effectively in recent months than we’ve seen in decades.

But these successes reveal a deeper problem.

America needs 16 carriers — not 11. Here's why, and how.🧵 Image
2/ Federal law requires “not less than 11 operational carriers.”

But the law counts carriers in a multi-year overhaul as “operational.” That can be six YEARS offline.

At any given moment, only about half our carriers are actually available for deployment. Image
3/ Trump inherited a Navy with just 11 carriers and roughly 280 ships total. Reagan's was 15 and 600.

He's managed to assert American control over the world’s key chokepoints, take over Venezuela, blockade Iran, and Cuba's next.

China watched and could do nothing.

But each success consumed carrier availability that is far more limited than Washington admits.Image

🧵 Xi Jinping just invoked the Thucydides Trap with Trump.

Most assume this is a threat. But what if Xi is signaling something else — that he recognizes China is now in a weakened position against the United States and thus needs to avoid a war?

The historical record and current realities both suggest he has reason to worry.

Thread 🧵Image
2/ So what is "Thucydides Trap"?

Graham Allison documented 16 cases of rising powers challenging established ones.

Four ended in peace. But in the twelve that led to war, the established power defeated the rising power 7-5.

If Xi knows this history, he understands the odds are stacked against China — especially right now.Image
3/ China faces severe structural weaknesses.

Its economy depends heavily on exports to the U.S. market, and imported energy through straits it can't control.

Its demographic collapse is roughly a decade from becoming catastrophic.

Constant leadership purges reveal a brittle regime.

These are not the conditions of a confident rising power.Image

🧵Europe’s Green Deal is unraveling.

Centrally planned climate targets have delivered higher energy costs, industrial decline, and political revolt instead of the promised green utopia.

While Europe stagnates under mandates, America shows what market-driven progress looks like.

Thread 🧵Image
2/ Electricity in Europe now costs two to three times more than in the U.S. or China.

Taxes make up nearly a quarter of the bill. Binding net-zero rules, nuclear phase-outs, and unreliable renewables have created volatility and strangled industry.

Energy can be 30% of production costs. The result: deindustrialization.Image
3/ The auto sector reveals the damage.

It represents 7% of EU GDP and 14 million jobs. The 2035 combustion engine ban is forcing a rushed EV shift.

86,000 jobs lost since 2020. Up to 350,000 more at risk. Mercedes CEO warned they’re driving “full speed into a wall.” Image
