Officials reveal what was said in ‘horrendous’ Donald Trump call over buying Greenland that ‘freaked them out’

The alleged contents of Donald Trump’s ‘horrendous’ chat about buying Greenland with Denmark’s PM has been revealed.

The president, who was sworn in on Monday (20 January), hasn’t wasted any time since he was reinstated as commander-in-chief.

Between signing a host of executive orderssacking White House staffrevamping the Oval Office and reinstalling his Diet Coke button, this guy has had a seriously busy week.

Oh, and he’s ordered for the secret files on John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr’s assassinations to be declassified too.

As I’m sure you can gather, Trump‘s had a lot on his plate at the minute – however, he apparently still found the time to give Mette Frederiksen an earbashing last week.

The 78-year-old reportedly had a heated 45-minute conversation with the Danish leader, who has been in office since June 2019, to discuss the prospect of purchasing Greenland.

Before his return to the White House, Trump announced that he and his government were very interested in acquiring the self-governing country.

In fact, he described it as an ‘absolute necessity’ – and Republican lawmakers drew up a bill which will allow the 47th president to start negotiations.

In a post shared last month on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump wrote: “For purposes of National Security and Freedom throughout the World, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity.

“Greenland is an incredible place. The people will benefit tremendously if, and when, it becomes part of our Nation. We will protect it, cherish it, from a very vicious outside World.

“MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!”

Although officials in the nation have made it ‘very clear’ Greenland is not for sale, as we all know, Trump isn’t one to go down without a fight.

That’s why he hopped on a ‘fiery’ phone call with Frederiksen last week – which Danish officials have described as ‘horrendous’, according to the Financial Times.

Despite offering to increase Greenland-US cooperation on military bases and natural resources, Frederiksen was still sent away with a flea in her ear.

What happened on Trump’s Greenland phone call?

Officials who wished to remain anonymous told the publication that Trump was fiery, aggressive and confrontational when conversing with the PM.

“He was very firm,” one unnamed source said. “It was a cold shower. Before, it was hard to take it seriously. But I do think it is serious, and potentially very dangerous.”

Another said that authorities have been left ‘utterly freaked out’ by Trump’s remarks, adding: “The intent was very clear. They want it. The Danes are now in crisis mode.”

Frederiksen previously reiterated the words of Greenland’s prime minister, Mute Egede, when discussing the possibility of Greenland being put on the market.

What has Greenland’s prime minister said?

The 47-year-old said the politician has been ‘very, very clear … there is a lot of support among the people of Greenland that Greenland is not for sale and will not be in the future’.

Egede has previously called for independence from Denmark, but he has no interest in becoming a part of the US instead.

Greenland – which is the world’s largest island and is situated in a strategically important part of the Arctic region – has a population of just 57,000 people.

But these lot apparently aren’t keen on the idea of Trump taking over either, according to politician Aaja Chemnitz.

The MP, who is a Greenlandic member of the Danish parliament, revealed that ‘most people don’t want’ his pipe dream about acquiring Greenland to come true.

“I think some people find it quite disrespectful,” Chemnitz said. “And the way it has been done, and just the fact that you’re saying that you can buy another country.”

At the start of the month, the president’s son Donald Trump Jr took a trip to Greenland weeks after his dad first shared the idea about taking it over.

Trump’s oldest child said he was enjoying a ‘personal day-trip’ and that he didn’t have any meetings planned with government officials.

He first floated the idea about buying the island during his first term in office.

LADbible has contacted Trump’s representatives for comment.

Family forced nine-month-old son to grow up with chimpanzee in 'disturbing' experiment that had tragic ending

Family forced nine-month-old son to grow up with chimpanzee in ‘disturbing’ experiment that had tragic ending

The pair had a strong bond, but the experiment ended in tragedy

Back in the 1930s, a human baby aged just 10 months old was forced to grow-up alongside a chimpanzee, but the experiment had tragic results.

Animal psychologists Winthrop Niles Kellogg and his wife Luella raised their son, Donald, alongside a chimp named Gua, who was seven-and-a-half-months old when she joined the family.

In what people have called a ‘disturbing’ experiment, the pair were treated as ‘brother and sister’, wearing baby clothes, eating in high chairs and having a kiss goodnight before bed.

“What would be the nature of the resulting individual who had matured… without clothing, without human language and without association with others of its kind?” Winthrop wrote in his book, The Ape and the Child.

According to reports, for nine months, the couple conducted tests on Gua and Donald, reportedly for hours each day.

One saw the pair being spun around in chairs until they began to cry.

“The basic question was, is a chimp a chimp because it has chimp genes or because it is raised by other chimpanzees?” writes Theodore Dumas, in the Adult Health and Early Life Adversity: Behind the Curtains of Maternal Care Research.

The experiment was cancelled after nine months (YouTube/AV Geeks)

“Thus, if baby Gua grew up to be very chimp-like in a human household, then genes win. However, if baby Gua grew up to be more human than chimp, then environment wins. As such, Gua was treated like Donald’s sister and underwent the same bathing, dressing, and feeding processes.”

The test was due to last five years, but the couple ended up having to cancel the experiment early after concerns that Donald was showing worrying behaviours, such as grunting for more food, wrestling with Gua and even biting.

Other theories suggest the parents became concerned that Gua may one day harm Donald as her strength increased with age.

Sadly, both Donald and Gua had a tragic ending.

After the experiment was cancelled, Gua was sent away, from what was essentially a loving family environment to a ‘relatively barren cage’.

“This was the second time she was stripped from her ‘mother/caregiver’ and she went from a warm affectionate family life to a relatively barren cage with other strange and not so well-behaved chimps,” said Dunas.

“She died less than a year later, circa her third birthday, of a broken heart (the official cause of death was determined to be pneumonia).”

Meanwhile, Donald sadly died in 1973 at the age of 43. He is believed to have taken his own life one year after his parents passed away.

Lip reader reveals 'what Barron Trump said to Joe Biden' during mysterious exchange

Lip reader reveals ‘what Barron Trump said to Joe Biden’ during mysterious exchange

A lip reader has weighed in on the much-viewed exchange

Brenna Cooper

A lip reader has revealed what he believes what Barron Trump said to Joe Biden during their exchange at Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony.

Yesterday saw Trump officially become the 47th U.S. President after defeating Democrat nominee Kamala Harris last November.

The inauguration kicked off the next four years of Trump’s America in a predictable fashion, with the president making bold declarations about renaming the Gulf of Mexico and sending the USA to Mars.

‘First buddy’ Elon Musk also made headlines for his bizarre reaction to the Mars news before making a decisively dodgy looking salute on stage not once, but twice.

Another person to make headlines was the president’s youngest son Barron, who attended alongside his mother and older half-siblings.

Other than shocking people with his height – standing at 6 feet, 7 inches tall, Barron surpasses certainly Gary Barlow’s massive son in size terms – and appearing unimpressed by the prospect of a Mars colonisation, the 18-year-old also made headlines after his interaction with ex-President Biden.

What happened between Barron Trump and Joe Biden?

The exchange sees the two men shake hands, with Biden seemingly offering pleasantries to the youngest member of the Trump children. Barron then leans over to say something in response, which wipes the polite smile off the former President’s face.

Have a look at the exchange, which has since gone viral across social media, below:

The TikTok clip, which has since been viewed hundreds of thousands of times, has captured the attention of viewers worldwide and it seems they all have the same question – what could Barron have said in order to cause such a change in facial expression?

What did Barron Trump say to Joe Biden?

“I so want to know what he said!!!!! Cause the look on Biden’s face says it all,” one user commented, while a second added: “Not sure what he said but wiped the smirk right off his face.”

It didn’t take long for people to come up with wild speculations either, with several commenters claiming the teenager uttered the words ‘you’re done’ to the 82-year-old.

Which would be a pretty scathing comment to take if true.

However, a lip reader has since come up with another explanation for what could’ve occurred during the exchange.

Offering an explanation for what transpired between the two men, expert witness forensic lip reader Jeremy Freeman told LADbible what he believes Biden said: “It’s good to see you man,” to which Barron responded with a slightly bizarre ‘Exactly’.

Responding ‘exactly’ to someone asking how you’re doing would be a pretty strange choice of words, which could in turn explain why Biden looked so confused just moments after.

As for what Barron’s supposed ‘exactly’ response could mean, your guess is as good as mine.

All the executive orders Donald Trump has signed so far

Policy recognising only ‘two genders’

The president signed an order which will make it an official policy that there are only ‘two genders’.

The policy reads: “Agencies will cease pretending that men can be women and women can be men when enforcing laws that protect against sex discrimination.

“These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality.”

The order will also bring to an end ‘wasteful’ government programmes which promote diversity and inclusivity, as well as ‘defending women from gender ideology extremism’.

Free speech

The president accused the previous administration of ‘trampling free speech rights by censoring Americans’ speech’ and vowed to restore freedom of speech.

The order states it will ‘ensure that no Federal Government officer, employee, or agent engages in or facilitates any conduct that would unconstitutionally abridge the free speech of any American citizen’ and will ‘end censorship of protected speech’.

Leaving the World Health Organisation

The president accused the organisation of fumbling the COVID-19 pandemic and said the US would no longer be ‘ripped off’ by it.

While signing a document to have the US leave the health agency, Trump said: “World Health ripped us off, everybody rips off the United States. It’s not going to happen anymore.”

TikTok ban

As expected, Trump signed an executive order which hits pause on the US’ ban of the popular app, allowing time for an ‘appropriate course forward’.

“I guess I have a warm spot for TikTok that I didn’t have originally,” he said.

January 6 pardons

Trump’s loss in the 2020 election led to the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, in turn resulting in the arrests of a number of Trump supporters.

And as anticipated, the president has wasted no time in issuing pardons for offenders. Trump said he’s pardoned around 1,500 people and issued six commutations.

Immigration

Trump has issued a slew of immigration-related policies during his first day back in the White House as he declared illegal immigration at the US-Mexico border a national emergency.

Trump has already gotten started on reversing several Biden-era immigration orders and has plans to send US troops to help immigration agents and restrict refugees.

The president has also got the wheels in motion to prevent children of immigrants in the US illegally from having citizenship.

Speaking at his inauguration, he said: “All illegal entry will immediately be halted, and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came.”

Restoring the death penalty

Calling capital punishment an ‘essential tool for deterring and punishing those who would commit the most heinous crimes’, Trump signed an order which will ensure states have enough lethal injection drugs for executions.

“The Attorney General shall pursue the death penalty for all crimes of a severity demanding its use,” the order says.

Renaming the Gulf of Mexico

Following through on his promise during a press conference earlier this month, Trump has now ordered the Gulf of Mexico to be called the Gulf of America.

“President Trump is bringing common sense to government and renewing the pillars of American Civilization,” the executive order said.

Despite the order, it won’t change how it is named globally.

Energy policy

Trump has vowed to ‘unleash American energy’, promising to export US energy globally as he signed the order amid what he describes as a ‘national energy emergency’.

“America is blessed with an abundance of energy and natural resources that have historically powered our Nation’s economic prosperity. In recent years, burdensome and ideologically motivated regulations have impeded the development of these resources, limited the generation of reliable and affordable electricity, reduced job creation, and inflicted high energy costs upon our citizens,” the order states.

The order will also reverse Biden’s ban on drilling in Alaska as Trump declared America ‘will be a rich nation again’.

Cost of living

In the order, Trump vowed to issue ’emergency price relief’ to Americans aimed at lowering housing prices and availability and creating ’employment opportunities for American workers’.

Trump will also ‘eliminate harmful, coercive “climate” policies that increase the costs of food and fuel’.

Drug cartels

Trump has said drug cartels will now be classified as terrorist organisations.

“International cartels constitute a national-security threat beyond that posed by traditional organised crime,” the orders says.

Federal workers

Federal employees have now been classified as political hires – a move which in theory would make them easier to fire.

Trump also declared a federal hiring freeze which will reduce the size of federal government.

Trump is only the second president to be elected in a non-consecutive term

A new proposal could see Donald Trump serving as President of the United States until 2032.

On Monday (20 January) the 78-year-old became America’s 47th president after his first term ended back in 2021. He is only the second president to be elected in a non-consecutive term, alongside the 22nd and 24th president, Grover Cleveland.

Following Trump‘s inauguration, Tennessee congressman Andy Ogles filed a Joint Resolution, seeking a change to the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution.

Currently, presidents are restricted to serving only two terms, but the change – if successful – would mean a president could be elected for a third consecutive term.

“No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once,” it reads.

Ogles has argued that Trump would need another term to carry out his goals.

“President Trump’s decisive leadership stands in stark contrast to the chaos, suffering, and economic decline Americans have endured over the past four years,” he wrote in a statement.

“He has proven himself to be the only figure in modern history capable of reversing our nation’s decay and restoring America to greatness, and he must be given the time necessary to accomplish that goal.

“To that end, I am proposing an amendment to the Constitution to revise the limitations imposed by the 22nd Amendment on presidential terms. This amendment would allow President Trump to serve three terms, ensuring that we can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperately needs.”

Since officially becoming president on Monday, Trump has already made some big changes in the US, signing off a number of executive orders and memorandums within 24 hours.

These include pardoning a staggering 1,500 people convicted, or facing conviction, for their roles in the US Capitol riots back in January 2021.

Trump has also ruled that there are now only two genders in the US – male and female, saying the move was to ‘defend women from gender ideology extremism and restoring biological truth’.

The new president has also temporarily reversed the TikTok ban, after it went offline just a couple of days before he was sworn in.

The White House website states: “To fulfil those responsibilities, I intend to consult with my advisors, including the heads of relevant departments and agencies on the national security concerns posed by TikTok, and to pursue a resolution that protects national security while saving a platform used by 170 million Americans.

“My Administration must also review sensitive intelligence related to those concerns and evaluate the sufficiency of mitigation measures TikTok has taken to date.”

The inauguration day is set to start at 5pm UK time, with the inaugural procession and parade beginning around 8pm UK time.

Trump has made various promises of what he plans to achieve during his second time in office, and here’s what he’s pledged to do so far.

What is Trump promising to change?

TikTok

Trump has said that he wants to ‘make a deal to protect our national security’ after a ban on TikTok was delayed on Sunday.

The businessman claimed he would sign an executive order on Inauguration Day.

Taking toTruth Social, a social media platform he owns, he said (via the BBC): “I’m asking companies not to let TikTok stay dark!

“I will issue an executive order on Monday to extend the period of time before the law’s prohibitions take effect, so that we can make a deal to protect our national security.”

Immigration

After he takes power, Trump claims he ‘will launch the largest deportation program in American history‘, promising to close the border to undocumented immigrants.

His controversial ‘Muslim travel ban’ is also back, banning people from several countries in the world which have a majority of Muslim people living there.

“We will seal our border and bring back the travel ban,” Trump previously said.

“Remember the famous travel ban? We didn’t take people from certain areas of the world. We’re not taking them from infested countries.”

The release of JFK, RFK and MLK assassination files

“As the first step toward restoring transparency and accountability to government, we will also reverse the over-classification of government documents,” Trump said at the Capital One Arena (via LBC).

“And in the coming days, we are going to make public remaining records relating to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert Kennedy, as well as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.”

Buying Greenland

Again on Truth Social, he has promised to buy Greenland, located between the Arctic Ocean and the North Atlantic Ocean.

“Greenland is an incredible place,” he said, with it being an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark.

“The people will benefit tremendously if, and when, it becomes part of our Nation. We will protect it, cherish it, from a very vicious outside World. MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!”

Trump tried to negotiate a deal in his last term, but the Danish prime minister Mette Frederiksen called the whole thing ‘absurd’.

Women’s rights

Trump appointed the US Supreme Court justices who helped overturn the historic Roe v Wade judgement that resulted in 20 states bringing in strict abortion laws.

Having called these laws as a ‘beautiful thing to watch’, Trump has said he will not push for a direct federal abortion ban.

During the campaign, he said he will give all women free IVF treatment for those who are struggling to become parents.

Education

Last year, Trump said he wants to stop schools from receiving any funding that will go towards ‘critical race theory, transgender insanity, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content’.

He also said he will put an end to school rulings on vaccine or mask mandates.

Taxing on tips

Previously, Trump claimed that the ‘first thing in office’ he is will do is ending income tax on tipped income.

Trump on taxes, the economy, and environment

Trump says he will ‘end inflation’ without revealing how this could be achieved. He has hinted at opening up the US’s oil industry in a move he says could ‘make American affordable again’.

He also is set to halt offshore wind power farms, claiming they ‘kill whales and birds’.

Trump has previously described climate change as an ‘expensive hoax’ while committing to clean air and water for US citizens.

He said he will lower interest rates, despite the POTUS not setting them or controlling them. He says he will up taxes on imports while cutting taxes worth trillions of dollars, all while deporting undocumented immigrants.
