Description

Donald Trump has appointed Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry as a “special envoy” to Greenland, a position Landry appears wholly unqualified for. Guest host Chris Keene and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger mock Landry’s claim that the United States has “never engaged in imperialism,” using the Trump administration’s interest in annexing Greenland and regime change in Venezuela as prime examples. The duo argue that national security justifications mask a scramble for resources, whether oil in Venezuela or minerals in Greenland, and reflect a revived Monroe Doctrine mindset of hemispheric domination. The discussion concludes that openly pursuing territorial expansion while ignoring domestic crises exposes U.S. imperial behavior and sets a dangerous precedent for global conflict.

Landry sold us into slavery in Louisiana. We have to foot the bill for the 2,250 acre meta data center and it's 3 power plants! Dude needs to be tarred and feathered.
