Adam Kinzinger and Mark Kelly: Dirty Little Secret

It confirms it, and it makes me angry that I am angry at Merrick Garland. I've tried to kind of cover that anger up because I wanted to defer to the Justice Department on a lot because I'm not a โ€“ I'm not a lawyer. I've never worked for the Justice Department. But, you know, the reality is it was after our first hearing in the summer when it was kind of that holy shit stuff that came out.

That's when DOJ started their investigation against Trump. They lost a year in that process and a year and a half, actually. This would have been fully adjudicated had Merrick Garland actually appointed a special prosecutor right after January 6th, as Mitch McConnell basically had said should have been done. This would be fully adjudicated.

Look, I never thought as a neocon I'd ever be against an invasion, particularly a land grab. But no, I don't want Greenland. I mean, honestly, like all of a sudden, what, 40,000 people that are going to expect us to take care of them because there's not a huge economy there. Look, we already have access to Greenland in terms of some of the military stuff. It is a very important landmass.

And this is something I think people need to understand. When Donald Trump claims that it is important for national defense, he's actually claiming it is important to posture against Russia. OK, because Russia is the threat on this, which is interesting because we could actually posture against Russia by ensuring that Ukraine wins the war.

That's actually the best way to push back, not an invasion of Greenland. So look, as long as I think we can continue to use our military there to an extent and be able to monitor it and whatever we need, the Danes are not going to ban us from Greenland and they're not going to side with the Russians. In fact, Denmark is one of the most staunchly anti-Russian countries out there.

So the film that's coming out, Last Republican, actually documents in 2006, I had a situation where a guy was murdering his girlfriend and I ended up intervening and he was using a knife. And look, honestly, I would fight a guy with a pistol before I would fight a guy with a knife. And so it was like, by the grace of God, I intervened.
