About this episode

The gang breaks down President Trump’s escalating rhetoric over Greenland, including newly revealed text messages with Norway’s prime minister and renewed claims that U.S. control of Greenland is necessary for global security. They debate how serious this push really is and what it signals about American power politics. Then they turn to the UK, where Prime Minister Keir Starmer is opening the door to a possible ban on social media for children under 16, reversing earlier opposition and raising questions about whether similar restrictions could come to the United States.


This episode was recorded prior to the framework deal being announced.
