I think both can be true. Right. Both can be true at the same point. You can actually chart a vision to have this beautiful piece of real estate right just south of Beirut, which used to be called the Paris of the Mediterranean. If we clear up the security situation, we get the international community to actually fund the rebuilding. How do we prevent the same old thing from happening again?
And how do we chart an actual positive future? And perhaps that has to kind of break some historic China. That's okay. Come back with a different plan. And that's what people are doing.
those like literally those conversations i'll see uh bb's national security advisor monday uh uh now ambassador whitcoff is is is talking to them today i mean this is a moving fluid hour by hour situation uh and if we need to get as many hostages out as we can at the same time we make sure hamas never exists to do this again.
I could see, look, thanks partially, well, they all do. Europe is going to be harder. I mean, that is a tough, tough situation. And the president has said this as well. Iran is on its back foot. We have a historic opportunity in Lebanon now with the Aoun government. Christian Arab-led government. We have the fall of Assad, the decimation of Hezbollah.
We have a tremendous opportunity in the Middle East. We have to make sure that this never happens again to Israel, and we will always stand with them. But we can see that pathway to get back to where we were the first term, which was the Abraham Accords.
And the more we get back to talking about data centers and fiber and infrastructure and those conversations that become bigger, these historic animosities become smaller and smaller. That pathway is going to happen. We just started this
know first step of a process of bringing the war in europe to an end uh and charting that future uh we've seen the introduction of american leadership in the western hemisphere again and that's from the arctic all the way down to the border down and taking on the cartels to the panama canal also known as our 51st state and also known as greenland right it's a combo they could be 51 and 52.
The reality is the Danish government has treated Greenland like a, you know, like kind of a backwater. They don't have the defense assets over there. We see Russian icebreakers. We see the Chinese trying to get a hold of critical minerals. We see now shipping and fishing and other things happening to the north of our neighbor in Canada.
By the way, Canada is near the last in terms of defense spending itself. What a shock. Shocker. Trudeau came to the dinner and said, no, no, we're on a pathway to get to the minimum 2% 10 years from now. That was a commitment they made 10 years ago. So just, it's unacceptable. And we also see Panama moving away from China.
I've heard general after general when I was in Congress and Admiral come to the table and pound the table about China and the Western hemisphere and our food, energy, ports. And now within a month, We have the country overseeing the Panama Canal saying we're coming back to the United States. We're moving away from China. One month. So all of this is in train. It's moving in the right direction.
It's all moving in the right direction. It's not going to happen overnight. We told the president we have four years. He said, no, we don't. We're doing it right now.
Thank you so much, Mike, for being here. My pleasure.
Wonderful to be with you, Megan. Thank you for having me.
Well, first of all, even the notion of the far right-wing parties in Europe is largely fake news from the establishment media. In Germany, the right-wing party, Alternative for Deutschland, is run by a lesbian libertarian who thinks that Hitler was a communist, okay? So even when we're talking about the particular scary right-wing party that they're all worried about, even that
is just a kind of normal right-wing party in the libertarian modern sense of things and so when jd shows up to munich i think this i've been calling his speech the tear down this firewall speech you know reagan goes to the brandonburg gate says tear down this berlin wall well jd he said there's no room for a firewall in a democracy and a lot of the american listeners probably didn't know exactly what he was referring to but the firewall in germany
Germany is the leader of Europe. So, you know, it's really more broadly European. The firewall is this notion that the left wing and center parties can't work with the right wing parties.
But this creates a major problem for European democracy, because in Europe, just as we've seen in America, the people increasingly are voting for the right wing parties because the left wing parties have failed them. and have opened up Europe's borders.
And when the migrants have come in and committed all sorts of crimes, including the particularly heinous crimes that we saw in the United Kingdom with the grooming rape gangs, you saw the politicians not defending the citizens of the countries, but actually attacking the citizens of the countries and defending
mass migration and the rape gangs and all of these hideous crimes so it's no wonder that people are looking for an alternative and they're turning to the right and what jd vance went to say in munich is look you people all prattle on about democracy all the time and yet when the people actually vote all you liberal elites out of office you deny them you call them a threat to democracy
You censor them. In some cases, you arrest them in midnight raids over things that they've posted to Facebook. And we are not going to tolerate that anymore. And I think the reason that the left is rending its garments and gnashing its teeth over this speech is that what J.D. Vance was saying here is that Europe needs to fundamentally change its political order.
