Now, we don't know details here.
I've asked the White House, for example, what law would authorize this and have received no word yet.

Hey, good morning.
Well, today, Treasury Secretary Scott Besant will be speaking in Davos.
Then Trump is scheduled to talk on Wednesday.
And then on Thursday, there's what the White House is calling a charter announcement for the Board of Peace that Trump created to oversee reconstruction in Gaza after the conflict he's been trying to end between Israel and Hamas.
In terms of substance, we don't know much yet.
White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett has suggested that Trump will unveil a new housing policy.
Beyond that, we know he likes to talk about tariffs.
And days ago, he threatened to tariff goods from eight European countries until the U.S.
has a deal to acquire Greenland.
Well, Trump posted that he's going to impose 10 percent tariffs on those eight countries starting on February 1st, then raise it to 25 percent in June.

Now, of course, the Norwegian government does not decide who gets that prize.
