Show Open:

• Evidence media was in the tank for Biden!
• What does the Don Lemon case in MN and Forbes have in common? In both cases, the First Amendment determines actions which can be taken against a journalist!
• A new Media Research Center exclusive by MRC Business Associate Editor Joseph Vazquez reveals how a Forbes contributor and colleague offered to tailor coverage to the Biden administration’s preferences around the 2023 Ohio train disaster.
• The report — based on exclusive documents obtained by MRC Business — shows journalists from Forbes not only proposing to delay publication for the administration’s benefit but also offering editorial input to EPA officials ahead of publication.
• Forbes contributor Rhett Buttle and associate Abdullah Khan offered to delay or alter coverage of President Biden’s EPA Administrator Michael Regan interview until after political pressure from the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment eased.
• Communication with the EPA included proposed questions and editorial adjustments, blurring lines between reporting and administration influence.

  Buttle is listed as a Biden donor, creating a potential conflict of interest that was not disclosed in the published piece.

  The published interview ran on the last day of Black History Month with a promotional headline — yet contained no pushback on key issues like FEMA’s initial decision on disaster aid.

Segment Topic: 

• Trump took control of Davos and not a sighting of Klaus Schwab’s ghost!
• Mineral rights and military bases:
  • The deal’s framework includes giving the U.S. access to Greenland’s minerals. One of the framework’s proposals is to restrict non-NATO member countries from acquiring the rights to mine Greenland’s rare earth minerals below the ice sheet, The New York Times
  • Minerals are rich near the island’s coastal regions, The Telegraph The U.S. would not have to seek permits to use any iron ore, diamond, copper, zinc, nickel, gold, tungsten and graphite in the ice sheet. The Trump administration has pushed for developing a rare earthsupply chain as a means to cut down on the U.S.’s dependence on China. (The Hill)
  • The deal framework also updates the 1951 deal between the U.S. and Greenland. It gave the U.S. “the right of free access to and movement between the defense areas through Greenland, including territorial waters, by land, air and sea.” It also allowed U.S. aircraft to fly over the island and land in any part of Greenland.
  • It appeared that Denmark was left out of the negotiations and if so; how did NATO step in?
  • Despite Trump claiming the deals are “infinite,” Greenlandic Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said the terms of the deal are less determined and said only Denmark’s and Greenland’s leaders decide what happens to their lands.

• Russia/Ukraine:
• Witkoff and Kushner are in Moscow for direct talks with Putin, following President Trump’s face to face with Zelensky. She we be optimistic because they are at least talking?
• The U.S. has over $60 billion dollars in frozen Russian assets. Could Putin approve that money to be used for the rebuilding of Ukraine?

Iran:

• Ominous signs for the Iranian Regime:
• Iranians were caught moving out of their consulate in London this week.
• Posted on “X:” In just 56 hours, 16 Chinese military transport aircraft have landed in Iran. Apparently not to make Amazon deliveries!
• Fox News is reporting that the regime has used the pause over the past few days to tighten its grip against the people and pickup trucks outfitted with automatic weapons are patrolling the streets.
• More photographic evidence of multiple body bags is surfacing. What is Trump going to do?
• A look ahead to “Dangerous Intellectuals” podcast on Monday:

Segment Topic: 

• Chief, what was your reaction to yesterday’s testimony of Jack Smith?
  • At one point, former Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone was briefly escorted out of a congressional hearing on former special counsel Jack SmithThursday after a tense exchange with Ivan Raiklin, a one-time Army reservist and right-wing operative.
  • Listening to the anyone with a “D” after their name; you come to the realization that the Dem-Coms are this nation’s enemy!

• Axios reports that U.S. murder rate hits lowest level since 1900! Why?
  • Why it matters: The decline signals a complete reversal of the COVID-era crime wave.
  • By the numbers: 11 of 13 tracked crimes were lower in 2025 than in 2024, according to data compiled by the Council on Criminal Justice.
  • Nine offenses declined by 10% or more.
  • Aggravated assaults fell by 9%, and gun assaults and robbery tumbled by 22% and 23%, respectively.
  • Drug crimes are up 7%, the lone category to increase.
  • The big picture: Trump touts himself as a law-and-order president who has tackled crime by sending National Guard troops into predominantly Democrat-run cities and justified his immigration crackdown by linking undocumented immigrants to rising crime.
  • But violent crime was already falling to a two-decadelow in Biden’s final year, calling into question whether Trump’s policies have made an impact.
  • “Whether it be deporting criminal illegal aliens, supporting law enforcement officers, or finally being tough on criminals, the Trump Administration has employed a whole-of-government approach to drive down crime and make communities safer,” a White House spokesperson tells Axios.
• Arrests in MN:
  • The first suspect arrested was Nekima Levy Armstrong, who was apprehended during a morning operation by FBI agents and ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) division.
  • She is being charged with a felony for alleged conspiracy to violate someone’s constitutional or legal rights, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. (Epoch Times)
  • Bondi also announced the arrest of an additional suspect in the case, Chauntyll Louisa Allen. The Department of Homeland Security later shared footage of the woman in HSI custody, noting that she had been charged with a “conspiracy to deprive rights,” the same charges against Armstrong.
  • FBI Director Kash Patel later announced the arrest of a third suspect, William Kelly. Patel also announced that the second arrestee, Allen, had been charged with a violation of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, which in addition to criminalizing the blocking of entrances to abortion clinics also applies to preventing the exercise of freedom of religion at places of worship.
  • Federal Judge refused to issue an arrest warrant against Don Lemon. Why?

Segment Topic:

• Greenland Deal:
  • “Greenland panic isn’t about trade at all — it’s about a continent that talks big but lacks strategic muscle.” (Larry Behrens/Power the Future)
  • As Europe continues to rage over Greenland, energy expert and Power the Future spokesman Larry Behrensargues that Europe gave up its right to lecture the world when it willfully chose to finance its adversaries.
  • Writing for the Washington Times, Larry notes — “Europe wants to lecture Trump about Greenland. But it obliterated all its leverage over the past decade. So much so that it spends more on Russian oil and gas than in aid to Ukraine. If Europe wants to be taken seriously on trade, security or sovereignty, it must confront the truth about its energy choices. You cannot lecture the world while financing adversaries. You cannot claim independence while importing vulnerability. And you cannot posture as a strategic heavyweight while dismantling the very systems that make power possible.”
  • This latest round of European anger would carry more weight if it weren’t coming from a continent that has systematically dismantled its own energy structure and then acted shocked when that loss of leverage shows up in conflict cash.
  • Europe talks tough because it has little else to lean on and always has the United States as a backstop.
  • In 2018, Mr. Trump warned Europe that it was making itself dangerously dependent on Russian energy. European leaders didn’t just disagree; they also laughed in his face. The idea that energy dependence could become a strategic weapon was treated as crude American thinking. Europe, they insisted, had evolved past that.
    • It was all fun and games until Russia invaded Ukraine.
    • Almost overnight, Europe’s self-confidence collapsed. Energy prices exploded. Factories slowed or shut down. Governments scrambled for liquefied natural gas and emergency supply deals. Through it all, Europe continued sending billions of dollars to Moscow.
  • In the third year of the full-scale invasion (ending February 2025), the EU purchased approximately $25.62 billion in Russian oil and gas. During that same period, the EU allocated roughly $21.88 billion in direct financial aid to Ukraine.
  • That’s $3.74 billion more for Vladimir Putin’s war machine. That isn’t leadership. It’s strategic failure.
  • Energy dominance is power. It means affordability at home, leverage abroad and insulation from coercion. Europe chose the opposite path by shutting down reliable generation, betting heavily on intermittent sources without adequate backup and assuming markets would magically fill the gaps. When those bets failed, Europe didn’t gain independence; it traded for dependency.
  • Mining Ban in MN:
  • Congressional Republicans moved closer Wednesday to lifting a 20-year ban on mining near Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, pushing a resolution to end the moratorium through the House despite environmentalists’ warnings that it could devastate a premier destination for campers, kayakers and canoeists.
  • The resolution now goes to the Senate, and approval there would send it to President Trump for his signature.  
  • Republican Rep. Pete Stauber introduced the bill earlier this month, calling the Biden-era ban an “attack on our way of life” in northern Minnesota, as it “cost countless good-paying, union jobs.” 
  • “By locking up the Duluth Complex—the world’s largest untapped copper-nickel deposit—President Biden cemented our nation’s reliance on foreign adversarial nations like China for critical minerals that will be necessary for the United States to compete and win in the 21st Century,” he said.
  • Canada/China relationship:
  • Is the deal between Canada and China all about oil? China needs oil and Canada has that oil.

Segment Topic:

• What does the National Education Association do with union dues collected from their members?
  • One of the nation’s most prominent teachers’ unions funneled millions of dollars in union funds to far-left activist groups, ballot initiatives and social justice organizations, according to federal labor filings.
  • A November Form L-2 disclosurefrom the National Education Association (NEA) filed in November and obtained by the North American Values Institute (NAVI) shows 2024 fiscal year spending that involved millions given to social justice-oriented groups and far-left causes.
  • The NEA, which boasts more than 3 million members, sent $300,000 to the Sixteen Thirty Fund, a liberal dark money group Fox News Digital has reported onextensively, and tens of thousands of dollars to the Tides Foundation network, which Fox News Digital previously reported has ties to anti-Israel protests and a variety of far left causes.
  • Among the largest expenditures was more than $3.5 million sent to Education International, a global teachers federation where NEA President Becky Pringle serves as a vice president. The filing also details hundreds of thousands of dollars flowing to organizations backing ballot initiatives aimed at reshaping education policy and election laws in states, including Ohio, Massachusetts, Arizona and Wisconsin.
  • The union reported spending $500,000 to support a campaign to end standardized testing in Massachusetts, another $500,000 to back an anti-gerrymandering amendment in Ohio and nearly $500,000 to a progressive political consulting firm specializing in ballot initiatives and canvassing.
  • In addition to electoral spending, the NEA paid more than $166,000 to Imagine Us LLC, a consulting firm focused on racial equity training, and tens of thousands more to groups promoting what they describe as “social justice education,” including curriculum materials centered on race, gender identity, and activism in K-12 classrooms.
  • NEA sent $350,000 to the Schott Foundation, which describes itself as “a BIPOC-led public fund that pools philanthropic funding and fuels racial and education justice movements.” (Fox News Channel)
