Speaker 1: Hi, everybody. Welcome to the Right Side. Doug Billings here
Speaker 1: will you. Thanks for watching as I come to you
Speaker 1: from smack dab in the middle of the fruited plane
Speaker 1: as I always do four o'clock Central time. We are
Speaker 1: going to talk about Greenland today, going to talk about
Speaker 1: Greenland and why it makes sense it's happening not being
Speaker 1: reported widely in the mainstream media. Doesn't surprise you, of course,
Speaker 1: but Greenland is poised to become a territory of the
Speaker 1: United States. They just had some elections over there, their
Speaker 1: center right party one, and conversations with President Trump and
Speaker 1: our government are continuing. I wouldn't be surprised if this
Speaker 1: happens sooner rather than later. Folks. All of that and
Speaker 1: much more, Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready? The Right
Speaker 1: Side with Doug Billings is now upon you.
Speaker 2: Hey, everybody, my name is General Mike Flynn. I'm here
Speaker 2: to do a big shout out for my great friend
Speaker 2: and one of the best in the business, mister Doug Billings.
Speaker 2: Right side with Doug Billings. Right side with Doug Billins.
Speaker 2: Doug is the future of the airwaves when it comes
Speaker 2: to independent broadcasters, and he is the new rush Limbaw.
Speaker 2: He's exactly what America needs right now, looking for honesty,
Speaker 2: looking for wisdom, looking for truth, looking for patriotism. Listen
Speaker 2: to Doug Billings at right Side with Doug Billings, God
Speaker 2: bless you, and God bless America, and thank you.
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen. We are winning. We're winning, winning, winning.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the right Side with Doug Billings. Are you ready?
Speaker 1: We are not.
Speaker 3: Liberal snowflakes who mild away in the face of tragedy.
Speaker 1: Adversity, and challenge.
Speaker 3: We are a covenant nation under God and his divine
Speaker 3: providence is not dead and it's not gone.
Speaker 1: It is living within each and every one of you, and.
Speaker 3: You will bring it to life in such a way
Speaker 3: that the world has never seen before. We never back down,
Speaker 3: we never give up.
Speaker 1: We march forward. And here we go, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, Greenland.
Speaker 1: So I'm already starting to get chat messages and texts
Speaker 1: and so forth. And I love seeing all of you
Speaker 1: over there. It's happening, and it's gonna happen, I think
Speaker 1: sooner rather than later, this whole Greenland thing, and why not?
Speaker 1: It makes sense, It makes sense on multiple levels. And
Speaker 1: we're going to talk our way through most of these
Speaker 1: here it sounds something like, you know, you pick up
Speaker 1: a geopolitical fiction magazine and you're reading this and you're
Speaker 1: thinking yourself, Billings, what in the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 1: What are you thinking? Greenland? Come on, man, United States
Speaker 1: acquires territories every once in a while in our history,
Speaker 1: and this is a strategic one in many ways, it
Speaker 1: makes sense. You're gonna have another appreciation for this when
Speaker 1: we're finished with our conversation today, because there's a case
Speaker 1: to be made, and it's really stronger than most people
Speaker 1: think it is. And so grab your cup of coffee,
Speaker 1: you grab your adult beverage, because we're going to dive
Speaker 1: in and we're gonna listen and talk to talk our
Speaker 1: way through what it would mean. And above all else,
Speaker 1: why why is President Trump so interested in Greenland? Some
Speaker 1: people say, oh, he's just joking, This is just typical
Speaker 1: Trump sense of humor. He's not joking, folks. This is
Speaker 1: beyond that. This is a serious geopolitical issue that's happening
Speaker 1: right before our very eyes. And there are more people
Speaker 1: who are in favor of it within Greenland and the
Speaker 1: United States than there are against it. So the let
Speaker 1: me set the scene. Greenland, in case your educational systems
Speaker 1: in the United States failed you, is a large continent
Speaker 1: mostly made of ice, right, rock, and frozen tundra. It's
Speaker 1: up in the Northern Atlantic, and technically it's part of
Speaker 1: the Kingdom of Denmark, but it has a lot of
Speaker 1: its own autonomy, can make most of its own decisions,
Speaker 1: and so forth, Denmark does not rule over Greenland with
Speaker 1: an iron fist. It's got a very small population, about
Speaker 1: fifty six thousand people that wouldn't even halfway fill up
Speaker 1: Arrowhead Stadium for a Chief's football game. So fifty six
Speaker 1: thousand people, and it's mostly ice right, like I said,
Speaker 1: like eighty percent of it is covered in an ice sheet.
Speaker 1: But don't let that fool you, because underneath that frozen
Speaker 1: wasteland is a gold mine and maybe we should say
Speaker 1: an ice mine. But a lot of minerals, a lot
Speaker 1: of rare earth minerals there. And the United States actually
Speaker 1: had its eye on Greenland for a long time back
Speaker 1: in nineteen forty six, believe it or not, President Truman.
Speaker 1: President Truman offered Denmark one hundred million dollars for it,
Speaker 1: and then, of course, one of our favorite presidents again
Speaker 1: now currently floating the idea of acquiring Greenland for ourselves.
Speaker 1: But here's here's why, in very serious terms, here's why.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna list several points here. Point number one, why
Speaker 1: does it make sense for Greenland to become a territory
Speaker 1: of the United States. So the next time you're at
Speaker 1: your cocktail party and some liberal comes up and starts
Speaker 1: lambasting the idea of why Trump continually talks about Greenland
Speaker 1: and so forth, this is not Trump is joking when
Speaker 1: he mentions Canada, okay, is becoming a state. That's a
Speaker 1: joke he does. He's only pushing the buttons of the
Speaker 1: Prime Minister and and the you know, the folks on
Speaker 1: the radical left in our country. He's only trolling them
Speaker 1: with Greenland. It's a whole different animal, whole different story.
Speaker 1: So the first point strategic power in the Arctic, Okay,
Speaker 1: the big one strategy. Greenland's location is unreal It's perfect
Speaker 1: for us. It it it sits right at the crossroads
Speaker 1: of North America, Europe and the Arctic, so perfectly positioned
Speaker 1: for a strategic location for a United States territory. If
Speaker 1: you've got a map of the world in your head,
Speaker 1: or if you've got one handy there in your home
Speaker 1: or your office wherever you are, pull it up and
Speaker 1: look at it real quick. It's a giant stepping stone
Speaker 1: between Greenland is a giant stepping stone between the United
Speaker 1: States and some pretty key global players out there. And
Speaker 1: in a world where the Arctic is heating up literally
Speaker 1: and figuratively, that matters now more than ever. The Arctic's
Speaker 1: ice is melting, There's no doubt about it. But this
Speaker 1: is a continual cycle. This is not human made global
Speaker 1: warming I'm talking about. This is the human This is
Speaker 1: the Earth's cycle of warming and cooling, warming and cooling.
Speaker 1: It's been going on since the beginning of time. So
Speaker 1: don't think that I'm coming down in favor of the
Speaker 1: climate coops, the climate change cookes. I'm not. In a
Speaker 1: world where the Arctic is figuring, is heating up and
Speaker 1: becoming a figure of political geopolitical focus, Greenland becomes very
Speaker 1: important to the United States. The ice is melting, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's a scientific fact. Because the Earth is going through
Speaker 1: its natural cycles. Okay, And as it does this, more
Speaker 1: shipping routes are now opening, are are now opened. You've
Speaker 1: got the Northwest Passage exposing resources that everyone's starting to
Speaker 1: drool over. Every ruler of every country worth their salt
Speaker 1: is drooling over the oil, the gas, the rare earth minerals.
Speaker 1: It's a treasure chest up there in Greenland. And guests
Speaker 1: who's already circling the island, the usual suspects, Russia and China.
Speaker 1: Russia's got military bases popping up, like you know, like
Speaker 1: Arctic pop up shops, and China's investing billions of dollars
Speaker 1: in polar infrastructure up there in the polar regions that
Speaker 1: surround and border up and buttress against Greenland. The United
Speaker 1: States can't sit back and just watch this all happen.
Speaker 1: And so this is what's going on behind the scenes
Speaker 1: and why Trump is making a play for Greenland. Strategically,
Speaker 1: Greenland's already got a United States presence there, so that's
Speaker 1: to our advantage. No one else does. The Thuli Air
Speaker 1: Base up there in the northwestern part of the island,
Speaker 1: it's a critical part of not only our military in general,
Speaker 1: but especially our missile defense system. It also has a
Speaker 1: lot of our space force and space monitoring systems in
Speaker 1: that air base as well. So, but owning Greenland outright,
Speaker 1: how do we do that? How do we pull it off?
Speaker 1: That's the next level. It'll give us full control over
Speaker 1: a massive chunk of the Arctic and a permanent foothold
Speaker 1: to counter Russia's moves and to Chin and to keep
Speaker 1: China from cozying up too close up there in the Arctic.
Speaker 1: Imagine the leverage that we could have naval bases, airfields,
Speaker 1: radar stations all locked in under the stars and the stripes,
Speaker 1: the American flag planted right there, a United States territory, Greenland.
Speaker 1: It's not just about defense. It's about projecting power. It's
Speaker 1: about projecting America first. It's about where it's gonna It's
Speaker 1: all about as we look into the future a little bit.
Speaker 1: It's all about projecting the next fifty years or so,
Speaker 1: as we evolve into these new dynamics with other countries.
Speaker 1: It'll give us a foothold that no other country, Russia,
Speaker 1: China specifically is what I'm talking about, that they don't
Speaker 1: have and they and they can't get. So here's the kicker.
Speaker 1: Denmark's a NATO ally, but they're not exactly a military powerhouse. Right.
Speaker 1: No one is afraid of Denmark militarily speaking, but they're
Speaker 1: a member of NATO, which could play to our advantage.
Speaker 1: Greenland's defense relies heavily, as you might imagine, on the
Speaker 1: United States already making it a territory. Just formal that
Speaker 1: relationship and lets us double down without asking permission. That's
Speaker 1: point number one, the military and the strategic advantage of
Speaker 1: having Greenland as a territory. Point number two the economic
Speaker 1: upside of all of this. Okay, so it's a strategic
Speaker 1: slam dunk. We all get that. But what about the money.
Speaker 1: I mean, we're not just gonna pour cash into an
Speaker 1: ice cube for fun, Right Well, Greenland's got some serious
Speaker 1: economic potential and the US could cash in big time.
Speaker 1: First up, it's the resources. That ice sheet up there
Speaker 1: that I mentioned underneath of it is stuff we want.
Speaker 1: Greenland's got rare earth minerals, those weird elements you know,
Speaker 1: like neodium and dystropium, and that go into everything from
Speaker 1: smartphones to computer chips and to wind turbines, et cetera.
Speaker 1: Right now, China has a choke hold on that market. China.
Speaker 1: The last time I checked, they produced like sixty percent
Speaker 1: of the world supply of those minerals. If the United
Speaker 1: States controlled Greenland, we could mine those minerals ourselves, break
Speaker 1: that dependency and boost our own tech industries, create jobs, innovation,
Speaker 1: provide security, all from rocks under the ice, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1: Then there's fishing, I mean, for crying outlet, Greenland's waters
Speaker 1: teeming with cod, shrimp, hal of it, you name it,
Speaker 1: it's up there. The fishing industry would be huge for
Speaker 1: the United States. Their fishing industry already is a big deal,
Speaker 1: but with the United States investment and our know how,
Speaker 1: we could scale it up, export more feed into our
Speaker 1: own markets. Plus, as the Arctic opens up, Greenland's ports
Speaker 1: could become hubs for new trade routes of ours. Think
Speaker 1: of it like a northern Panama canal. That's a good
Speaker 1: way to look at it, but obviously colder and with
Speaker 1: better views. So there's gives and takes up there. But
Speaker 1: don't sleep and don't count on just fishing and tourism
Speaker 1: and things like that. Greenland's got glaciers, the northern lights.
Speaker 1: It's Instagram gold for people who want to go up
Speaker 1: there in vacation and explore. The United States can turn
Speaker 1: it into a destination location, build infrastructure, rake in billions
Speaker 1: of dollars from people who like to seek adventure up
Speaker 1: there and those kinds of landscapes. Sure, it'll take them
Speaker 1: up front cash to get things rolling. But with the
Speaker 1: money that we're saving because of DOGE, why not why
Speaker 1: not at least consider that investment so the money could
Speaker 1: be there and the payoff in the long term absolutely massive.
Speaker 1: This all makes sense. It's all being discussed behind the scenes.
Speaker 1: That's point two. Now point three, the environmental leadership that
Speaker 1: we could provide. Okay, now I'm gonna flip the script
Speaker 1: a bit here and talk about something greener literally the environment.
Speaker 1: And now I know what you're thinking, Wait a minute,
Speaker 1: are we taking over the island? And now you're going
Speaker 1: to talk about the green initiatives and so forth. I'm
Speaker 1: not talking about the Democratic liberal green initiatives. I'm talking
Speaker 1: that Greenland could be a chance for the United States
Speaker 1: to step up and be a global environmental leader in
Speaker 1: many ways. The ice sheet that I keep on mentioning
Speaker 1: up there, it's a big deal for climate science. We
Speaker 1: could host scientific meetings up there. Understand the cycles of
Speaker 1: the Earth that take place over thousands upon thousands of years.
Speaker 1: When you have ice sheets up there, it's like having
Speaker 1: a hard drive storing data on Earth's climate, and we
Speaker 1: could go back thousands of years just by coreing ice
Speaker 1: and looking down into it, literally looking back in time
Speaker 1: and understanding that these cycles of heating and cooling happen
Speaker 1: naturally and happen frequently throughout the life of the planet.
Speaker 1: We might not see the cycles in our small life,
Speaker 1: in our short lifespan, but in the history of the planet,
Speaker 1: these things, as you know, happen all the time. It's
Speaker 1: not man made. This is Earth, this is how it behaves.
Speaker 1: Researchers could drill those ice cores, figure out if there
Speaker 1: is a pattern, if there's a systematic pattern, if there's
Speaker 1: a schedule, for lack of a better word, about these
Speaker 1: events when they begin to happen. We could fund bigger
Speaker 1: research stations up there, train more scientists, use the data
Speaker 1: to shape our global climate policy, and a way to
Speaker 1: influence the rest of the world. I'll say it, Hey,
Speaker 1: we're not just here for the resources. We're here to
Speaker 1: figure this planet out. And that becomes a moderate approach
Speaker 1: for people who might not view us with friendly tones.
Speaker 1: At least at the beginning of the United States talking
Speaker 1: about taking Greenland as a territory, plus the United States
Speaker 1: could invest in substantial projects where solar, wind, hydropower, all
Speaker 1: those things, geothermal power, We've the Greenland's got the space
Speaker 1: and the conditions and the energy at large scales that
Speaker 1: we can all use to figure and study and learn
Speaker 1: more about these things. Imagine a territory that's not just
Speaker 1: a research grab, but it's a showcase for the technology
Speaker 1: that we want to share with the world with regards
Speaker 1: to true environmental science. It would boost our credibility on
Speaker 1: the world stage, especially with folks who think that we're
Speaker 1: all about oil and gas and let's be real. Climate
Speaker 1: change is a happening thing. Again, my stance is that
Speaker 1: it's not necessarily man made. This is a secular event
Speaker 1: that happens in cycles throughout the history of Earth. If
Speaker 1: I've said at once, I say it a dozen times.
Speaker 1: The US could bring serious resources in engineering, funding, adapting technologies,
Speaker 1: and so forth as Greenland becomes one of our partners.
Speaker 1: So that's I mean. Those are the points as I
Speaker 1: see them with regards to Greenland. Key among them, of course,
Speaker 1: I think, is the military just the overall strategic value
Speaker 1: that it provides us that hold in the Northern Atlantic
Speaker 1: and the Arctic, China, Russia already beginning to make steps
Speaker 1: to make themselves and give themselves footholds up there in
Speaker 1: those areas. Why not do it? And it's really happening.
Speaker 1: This is really being talked about behind the scenes. It
Speaker 1: doesn't get a lot of attention in the national media.
Speaker 1: But since I think the elections in Greenland just you know,
Speaker 1: they just had an election where they voted in the
Speaker 1: center right party that agrees with this, at least at
Speaker 1: least initially, they're more welcoming and more open minded about
Speaker 1: the United States and Greenland partnering and allowing Greenland to
Speaker 1: become a territory of the United States. So it's real.
Speaker 1: It's happening. And again I'll end where I began. I
Speaker 1: think it's going to happen sooner rather than later, ladies
Speaker 1: and gentlemen. So Greenland, USA, it's a deal. It's going
Speaker 1: to happen. I think that before I'm just going to
Speaker 1: say before the end of this year, there's going to
Speaker 1: be significant movement on this topic, ladies and gentlem that's it, Okay.
Speaker 1: I'm going to be back later in the day and
Speaker 1: tomorrow with some other news of interest, a lot of
Speaker 1: current events, a lot of things doze. We have to
Speaker 1: talk about that. The Left has no sense of themselves
Speaker 1: and this topic Greenland doesn't do them any good either.
Speaker 1: They have no countermeasures for any of this. We're going
Speaker 1: to be talking a lot about it. It's always good
Speaker 1: to be with you. Please don't forget, though, to head
Speaker 1: over to Doug Billings dot us. Doug Billings dot us
Speaker 1: my website, and please consider prayerfully making a small contribution,
Speaker 1: a monthly recurring donation over there. At Doug Billings dot us.
Speaker 1: You can click on the donate tab five bucks, five
Speaker 1: bucks a month, ten fifteen if you can afford it
Speaker 1: twenty even better, but just something small on a recurring
Speaker 1: monthly basis. Because I never charge for this program to
Speaker 1: be broadcast anywhere. You can watch it for free, but
Speaker 1: there are expenses and I would be just it just helps,
Speaker 1: if you would consider please heading over to Doug Buildings
Speaker 1: dot us a very small donation on a monthly recurring
Speaker 1: basis to help me need to continue to deliver the
Speaker 1: truth to you. Always a pleasure. Ladies and gentlemen, I
Speaker 1: love you, God bless you, believe it for the Republic.
Speaker 1: Cheers
