Fox News: Why Trump's push for frigid Greenland is about icing out US adversaries
President Trump has expressed a strong interest in acquiring Greenland, citing its strategic military location and rich mineral resources as essential for U.S. security and economic interests. Greenland's position could enhance the U.S. military's capabilities in the North Atlantic and reduce reliance on Chinese rare earth minerals.
Despite Trump's ambitions, Greenland's population largely opposes joining the U.S., and Denmark has committed to increasing its defense investments in the region. The island's mineral resources are difficult to access due to environmental regulations and ice coverage, complicating U.S. efforts to establish a stronger presence there.

Germany's military, previously in disarray, is set for significant investment as new leadership acknowledges the need for reform. Recruitment challenges persist, but there is a commitment to rebuild the armed forces and address long-standing defense deficits.

The company has been embroiled in controversies over its political stances, including the firing of actress Gina Carano for her conservative views and a legal defeat against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis regarding its self-governing status.
Additionally, Disney's attempts to incorporate LGBTQ themes into its films have resulted in disappointing box office returns for titles like "Lightyear" and "Strange World." Critics argue that the company's "woke" agenda may alienate family audiences, leading to a decline in its cultural standing.
