‘Tariff king’: Trump considers imposing economic pressures to secure Greenland
President Donald Trump reaffirmed his commitment on Friday to the U.S. acquiring Greenland, hinting that he may impose economic pressure on reluctant nations to secure their backing.
Trump has argued that the acquisition of Greenland is imperative to America’s national security and stated that he would consider imposing steep tariffs on countries that do not support the U.S. taking control of the island.
‘We’re talking to NATO.’
Trump participated in a roundtable on Friday morning, during which he said he had pressured President Emmanuel Macron of France to raise prescription drug prices. If Macron refuses to comply, Trump has threatened to place a 25% tariff on all French imports.
Trump, who declared himself the “tariff king,” explained that he made the same threat to the “top 10 countries,” including Germany, to lower U.S. drug prices. He stated that the tariff hike would have been roughly seven times more than what the countries would pay by raising their drug prices. He noted that all of the countries he contacted agreed to his request, securing “Most-Favored-Nation” pricing.
“And I may do that for Greenland too,” Trump remarked. “I may put a tariff on countries if they don’t go along with Greenland because we need Greenland for national security. So I may do that.”

In separate comments on Friday outside of the White House, Trump told reporters, “NATO has been dealing with us on Greenland. We need Greenland for national security very badly.”
“If we don’t have it, we have a big hole in national security, especially when it comes to what we’re doing in terms of the Golden Dome and all of the other things. We have a lot of investments in military,” he added.
“We’re talking to NATO.”

Last week, Secretary of State Marco Rubio explained that the administration has aspirations to purchase Greenland from Denmark.
“The United States is eager to build lasting commercial relationships that benefit Americans and the people of Greenland,” a State Department spokesperson previously told Blaze News. “Our common adversaries have been increasingly active in the Arctic. That is a concern that the United States, the Kingdom of Denmark, and NATO Allies share.”

ICE leader goes for Congress: Sheahan dumps desk for battle against 43-year Democrat incumbent
The Trump administration’s deputy director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement has stepped away from her role to run for Congress.
Madison Sheahan announced Thursday that she was resigning from ICE to challenge Ohio Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur, who has held onto her seat since 1982.
‘Real change means real leadership.’
Sheahan posted her first campaign video on Thursday morning and shared it on X.
“I’m Madison Sheahan. I’m a Trump conservative running for Congress to protect American jobs, American paychecks, and American values,” she wrote. “No excuses. Let’s get it done.”
In the campaign video, Sheahan touted her success at ICE, stating that, in less than one year, she has “stopped more illegal immigration than Marcy Kaptur has in her 43 years in Washington.”
“In Congress, hypocrisy, excuses, and failure can earn you a lifetime job, but on my family farm, that would put us out of business,” she said.

Sheahan highlighted how, during her time at ICE, the agency recruited 12,000 new agents and officers and deported over 2.5 million illegal aliens.
She slammed Kaptur for voting against funding the border wall while sending taxpayer handouts to illegal aliens. Kaptur also supported higher taxes on American citizens, including voting to keep taxes on Social Security, tips, and overtime, Sheahan stated.
“I’m tired of watching my hardworking family, friends, and neighbors pay more and get ignored,” Sheahan continued. “Real change means real leadership. And I’ve done it before.”

Kaptur’s campaign responded to Sheahan’s announcement, telling WTOL, “While Republicans from near and far will fight through a messy primary in this district they gerrymandered again just this fall, Congresswoman Kaptur is focused on delivering real results for her constituents.”
“She’s working to lower costs for working families, protect access to affordable health care, and bring transformative investments to Northwest Ohio,” the statement continued. “Voters are tired of the self-dealing corruption and culture of lawlessness they’ve seen over the last year. They want a leader focused on affordability and real results, and Marcy Kaptur consistently works across the aisle to deliver both.”
Several Republican candidates are running for Ohio’s 9th congressional district.
