Psalms 1 & 2 E2 — Psalm 2 presents a crisis perpetuated by a long line of corrupt empires in the ancient Near East. Every one of these empires makes a practice of conquering, murdering, raping, and pillaging across the known world, while ancient Israel is just one small nation conquered and occupied again and again. So how do Yahweh and his anointed king respond to this injustice? Surprisingly, a lot like how the evil imperial rulers do: with mocking laughter, hot anger, and by smashing them like pottery! But why? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore Psalm 2 as a minority report from an oppressed, ancient people group and an intentionally provocative portrait of God within the broader context of the Hebrew Bible.

What if the biggest threat to your faith isn't atheism… but the system you quietly benefit from every day?In John 11 and 12, Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead and exposes something bigger than a miracle. He reveals the real battle. Corrupt religion. Corrupt government. Corrupt money. The same forces that killed Him are still alive today. And they don't just oppose Jesus. They oppose anyone who follows Him. This message asks a hard question: Are we serving Christ, or are we protecting our comfort? Because loving this world always costs more than we think.Jesus said if you love your life in this world, you lose it. But if you hate the broken system and follow Him, you gain real life. That means stepping out of passive belief and into action. It means refusing to fund what destroys souls. It means fighting for the vulnerable. It means choosing the glory that comes from God over the approval of people. Free people free people. And this is our watch.
A viral clip claims something shocking: any pastor who gets paid by a church will eventually be corrupted by money. It's a bold accusation — and honestly, harder to dismiss than you might think. In this episode, Bob and Linda watch the clip, slow it down, and wrestle with the real tension underneath the claim. Is the modern church system broken? Does money inevitably compromise spiritual leadership? Or is this another example of painting faithful people with too broad a brush? This conversation isn't defensive or dismissive. It's thoughtful, biblical, and honest — especially for anyone who's experienced church hurt, wrestled with money in ministry, or wondered how pastors are actually supposed to live. In this episode, we discuss: The viral argument that "no pastor escapes being corrupted by church money" Why temptation does not equal sin — for pastors or anyone else How this logic breaks down when applied to everyday work and income Why most pastors are not in ministry for the money (and the real stats behind pastor burnout) The unseen pressures pastors carry — isolation, expectations, and spiritual attack What the Bible actually says about paying those who preach the Gospel Paul's tent-making example — and what it does (and doesn't) prove Why rest, Sabbath, and sabbaticals may be more of the solution than changing pay structures How church hurt can quietly turn into distrust of God if we're not careful What it looks like to give pastors grace without excusing real abuse Key Scriptures referenced (NLT): "The Lord has commanded that those who preach the Good News should be supported by those who benefit from it." — 1 Corinthians 9:14 "Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money." — 1 Timothy 6:17 "You cannot serve both God and money." — Matthew 6:24 A key takeaway: Money creates tension — but tension doesn't automatically lead to corruption. The real danger comes from isolation, burnout, lack of accountability, and forgetting how deeply human our pastors actually are. If you've ever wondered whether the church can handle money faithfully — or whether pastors can be trusted at all — this episode offers a more hopeful, biblically grounded way forward. If this episode encouraged or challenged you, share it with someone who loves the Church but struggles with trust. And if you're a pastor listening: you are not alone, you are not invisible, and you are not wrong for receiving support as you serve God's people.

1. Claims about U.S. immigration and corruption The U.S. has historically admitted immigrants from countries labeled as “highly corrupt” by Transparency International. Examples mentioned include South Sudan, Somalia, Venezuela, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Afghanistan, among others. Vetting immigrants from these countries is “nearly impossible” due to poor record‑keeping, bribery, and document fraud. 2. Reference to Trump administration policies Donald Trump previously restricted immigration from certain nations via executive orders. These restrictions were due to corruption concerns and an inability to verify documents from those regions. 3. Criticism of the Biden administration The Biden administration continued issuing visas to individuals from these “corrupt” nations, citing specific visa numbers (e.g., Venezuelan admissions). Allowing potentially unvetted migrants into the U.S. 4. Concerns about fraudulent documents Applicants in corrupt nations can obtain fake documents—birth certificates, police records, passports, diplomas—via bribes. This is presented as a major risk to U.S. vetting systems. 5. Political commentary on Democratic leaders Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Gavin Newsom are criticized for acknowledging migration problems while also condemning Trump’s approach. Democrats are both: admitting migration has become “destabilizing” and simultaneously criticizing U.S. border enforcement agencies. 6. Claims of “chaos” caused by Democratic policies The narrative argues that Democrats created disorder at the border and in U.S. cities. The author asserts Trump is “cleaning up the mess” and that this angers political opponents. 7. Accusations of unfair comparisons to authoritarian regimes Democrats comparing U.S. immigration enforcement agencies to authoritarian “secret police” or Nazi‑like forces.

Is science—as I once believed—pure and undefiled? A noble search for truth, guided only by evidence and the open sharing of discovery? Or has it become something else entirely—an instrument of power cloaked in the language of objectivity?In this episode, we'll trace how a penniless immigrant, newly armed with ties to British intelligence, quietly captured a vast share of the world's scientific publishing system. Under the banner of “better science,” he built a new apparatus of control— a system called peer review—that promised rigor, but delivered obedience; that did not guard the gates of knowledge, but locked them.And we'll end with the latest twist—where this same architecture of control has resurfaced inside global health agencies, rewriting the very evidence that defines EMF truth itself.Get full access to every episode of the audio podcast, through any audio podcast player including Apple Podcast, Spotify and many others right now!

Are you suffering from "Ethical Fading"? Discover actionable strategies to navigate a compromised world and cutthroat office politics without losing your soul or your competitive edge.We spend a significant amount of our collective energy frustrated by the state of the world. We look at the headlines, we watch the news, and we see a parade of compromised characters—politicians who trade influence for favors, CEOs who prioritize quarterly earnings over human safety, and public figures who seem to have surgically removed their shame. It is easy, and perhaps even cathartic, to point a finger at the screen and declare them the problem. It feels good to position ourselves as the moral observers of a crumbling society. But today, I want to ask you to do something much harder. I want you to lower that finger, turn away from the screen, and look in the mirror.This isn't about politics. This isn't about the grand stage of global affairs. This is about you. It is about the subtle, quiet, and often invisible ways that the corruption of the world seeps into our own bloodstreams. We all hate the corrupt politician, but we need to have a very honest, uncomfortable conversation about whether we fudge our own taxes. We despise the corporate liar, but do we embellish our resumes? We loathe the system that seems rigged, but do we grease the wheels of our own small lives with convenient untruths?The reality is that integrity is not a binary state. You aren't simply a "good person" or a "bad person." Integrity is a muscle, and like any muscle, it atrophies if you don't exercise it, and it tears if you put it under too much weight without training. In a world that often rewards the shortcut and celebrates the shark, maintaining your integrity is not just a moral luxury; it is a strategic necessity for your long-term mental health and professional survival. We are going to break down exactly how good people end up doing bad things, and more importantly, how you can navigate a compromised workplace—the office politics, the toxic bosses, the gray areas—without losing your soul or becoming part of the problem.We have to start by understanding the mechanism of our own undoing. Psychologists and behavioral economists have a term for this phenomenon: Ethical Fading. It is a fascinating and terrifying concept. Ethical fading occurs when the ethical dimensions of a decision fade from view, and the decision is reclassified as a business decision, a strategic maneuver, or a necessary evil. It is the process of numbing ourselves to our own small dishonesties. It doesn't happen overnight. You don't wake up one morning and decide to be a corrupt person. It happens by degrees. It is the boiling frog experiment applied to your soul.Think about the last time you faced a minor ethical dilemma. Maybe it was an expense report where you rounded up a few figures. Maybe it was telling a client that a project was "90% done" when you hadn't even started, just to buy yourself a weekend of peace. In that moment, you didn't think, "I am a liar." You thought, "I am managing expectations," or "I am just making sure I get reimbursed for the hassle." That is ethical fading. You strip the moral weight away from the action and replace it with utilitarian language. You convince yourself that the ends justify the means, or that "everyone else is doing it," or that the system is so broken that your small transgression is merely a drop in the ocean.But here is the bottom line: those drops accumulate. When you allow these small acts of "fading" to occur, you are retraining your brain. You are raising your threshold for discomfort. The first time you lie to your boss, your heart races and your palms sweat. That is your conscience working; that is your biological alarm system. But the second time, the alarm is a little quieter. The tenth time, there is no alarm at all. You have successfully numb yourself. The danger here is not just that you are becoming dishonest; it is that you are becoming blind. You lose the ability to see where the line is, and eventually, when a big compromise is demanded of you—a serious breach of ethics—you might just cross it without even realizing you have left the safety of the shore.So, how do we stop this slide? How do we maintain a rigid spine in a flexible world? It starts with a brutal personal audit. You need to look at your life with the cold, hard gaze of a forensic accountant. Where are you leaking integrity? This isn't about guilt; guilt is a useless emotion unless it drives change. This is about data. Are you honest in your relationships? Do you keep the promises you make to yourself? Do you present an unfiltered version of reality to your team, or do you curate the truth to make yourself look better?One of the most common places where this integrity leak occurs is in our professional identities. The resume is often the first casualty of the truth. We live in a hyper-competitive market, and the temptation to "polish" our credentials is immense. But there is a massive difference between highlighting your strengths and fabricating your reality. When you claim a skill you don't have or inflate a title you didn't earn, you are building your career on a foundation of sand. You are creating a future based on the fear that you are not enough as you are. And practically speaking, the anxiety of maintaining that lie, of constantly looking over your shoulder waiting to be exposed, is a massive energy drain. It taxes your mental resources—resources that you could be using to actually learn the skill you lied about.This brings us to the battlefield where most of us face these challenges daily: the workplace. The modern office is often a breeding ground for ethical compromise. We have all been there. The toxic manager who takes credit for your work. The colleague who smiles to your face and gossips behind your back. The pressure from upper management to hit targets that are mathematically impossible without cutting corners. This is where the rubber meets the road. It is easy to be virtuous when you are sitting alone in a room. It is much harder to be virtuous when your mortgage payment depends on your ability to survive in a corrupt ecosystem.You might be asking, "How do I survive office politics without becoming a politician?" The answer lies in shifting your mindset from "playing the game" to "mastering the terrain." You do not have to become a snake to survive in a snake pit, but you do have to know where the snakes are hiding and how to handle them.The first strategy is to become the master of the paper trail. In a compromised environment, the truth is often the first thing to be distorted. Your best defense is documentation. This isn't about being paranoid; it is about being professional. When a directive comes down that feels unethical or risky, you confirm it in writing. You send the follow-up email: "Just to clarify our conversation this morning, you would like me to proceed with X, despite the potential risk of Y." You do this neutrally, without emotion. You are essentially creating a reality anchor. Corrupt systems thrive on ambiguity and verbal orders that can be denied later. By forcing things into the written record, you introduce accountability. You shine a light. Often, just the act of documenting a shady request is enough to make the requester back down, because they know that their "ethical fade" won't survive the scrutiny of a written record.However, documentation is just the defensive line. You also need an offensive strategy, and that strategy is competence. In a corrupt or highly political environment, competence is the ultimate currency. People who rely on politics usually do so because they lack the substance to succeed on merit. They need the smoke and mirrors. If you focus on being undeniably good at what you do, you create a layer of insulation around yourself. When you deliver results that are tangible, measurable, and high-quality, you become harder to manipulate and harder to remove. You become an asset that even the corrupt players need to keep the ship afloat.But let's go deeper into the interpersonal dynamics. How do you handle the gossip, the backstabbing, the alliances? The pragmatic approach is to view yourself as Switzerland—neutral, observant, and armed. You can be friendly without being intimate. You can listen without participating. When someone comes to you with gossip, you have a choice. You can fuel the fire, or you can let the flame die with you. The most powerful phrase you can learn in office politics is a non-committal, "That sounds frustrating for you," followed by an immediate pivot back to work. "That sounds frustrating. Anyway, have you seen the data on the Q3 report?" By refusing to engage in the mudslinging, you signal that you are not a player in that game. You are there to work. This might alienate you from the "clique" temporarily, but in the long run, it earns you something far more valuable: respect. Even the snakes respect the person who refuses to be bitten or to bite.There is a nuance here that we must address. There is a difference between being "difficult" and being principled. Some people use "integrity" as a shield to be obstructionist or self-righteous. That is not what we are aiming for. We want to be the person who solves problems, not the person who creates bottlenecks. When you have to say "no" to something because of an ethical concern, you should always try to offer an alternative path. Don't just be the stop sign; be the detour. "I can't do X because it violates our compliance policy, but I believe we can achieve the same result if we do Y and Z." This shows that you are still on the team, that you are still driving toward the goal, but that you are insisting on getting there on a road that doesn't collapse beneath you.Now, we have to talk about the hardest part of this equation. We have to talk about the breaking point. There is a limit to how much you can navigate a corrupt system before the system begins to change you. You can wear a hazmat suit to work every day, but eventually, the radiation gets through. You need to know your "walk away" price. This is a concept I want you to define for yourself today, not when you are in the middle of a crisis. What is the line you will not cross? Is it lying to a client? Is it firing someone unjustly? Is it breaking the law? You must define these non-negotiables now, while your head is clear.If you don't define your non-negotiables, you will fall victim to the "slippery slope" we discussed earlier. You will justify the first small crossing of the line, and then the next, until you are miles away from who you wanted to be. But if you have that line drawn in the sand of your mind, when you approach it, an alarm will go off. And when that alarm goes off, you have to be willing to act. This is where the "pragmatic" part of our coaching comes in. Integrity sometimes requires an exit strategy.I am not telling you to quit your job tomorrow in a blaze of moral glory without a plan. That isn't smart; that's reckless. I am telling you that if you find yourself in an environment that consistently demands you compromise your values, you need to start plotting your escape. You need to update that resume (honestly), start networking, and save your money. Financial stability is one of the greatest guardians of integrity. When you live paycheck to paycheck, you are vulnerable. You are terrified of losing your income, and fear is the enemy of ethics. Fear makes us compliant. But if you have an emergency fund, if you have a "freedom fund," you have the power to say "no." You have the power to walk away. Money, in this sense, buys you the luxury of a conscience.Let's shift gears and look at the internal cost of corruption. Why does this matter? Why shouldn't you just fudge the numbers, play the politics, and get the promotion? Why not just lie on the resume if it gets you the foot in the door? The answer lies in the concept of "cognitive load."Lying, pretending, and managing a false persona takes an immense amount of brainpower. When you are living a lie, you have to remember the lie. You have to constantly calibrate your story to match your previous fabrications. You have to monitor other people's reactions to see if they suspect anything. This is a background process that is running in your brain 24/7, eating up your battery life. It causes low-level anxiety, chronic stress, and a pervasive sense of impostor syndrome.On the other hand, the truth is efficient. When you live with integrity, you don't have to remember what you said, because you said what happened. You don't have to worry about being exposed, because you have nothing to hide. This liberates a massive amount of mental energy. You can focus that energy on creativity, on problem-solving, on actual growth. Integrity is the ultimate productivity hack. It simplifies your life. It streamlines your decision-making process. When you know what your values are, you don't have to agonize over every choice. You simply ask, "Does this align with my values?" If the answer is no, the decision is made.Furthermore, we must consider the compounding interest of reputation. In a world that is increasingly transparent, where digital footprints last forever, your reputation is your most valuable asset. You might gain a short-term advantage by cheating—you might get the sale, or the job, or the tax break. But if you are caught, or even if people just start to sense that you are not trustworthy, the long-term cost is catastrophic. Trust takes years to build and seconds to break. In business and in life, people prefer to work with those they can trust. If you are known as a straight shooter, someone whose handshake actually means something, opportunities will flow to you. People will bring you into the inner circle because they know you won't stab them in the back. Integrity is a long-term greed. It pays better dividends over a lifetime than dishonesty ever could.Let's look at some specific, actionable steps you can take today to begin strengthening your integrity muscle. We need to move from the philosophical to the practical.First, I want you to practice "Radical Honesty" in low-stakes situations. We often lie about small things to avoid minor social friction. We say we are "five minutes away" when we haven't left the house. We say we "loved the dinner" when it was cold. Start catching yourself in these micro-lies. Correct them in real-time. If you are running late, say, "I am running 20 minutes late because I managed my time poorly." It is uncomfortable, yes. But it trains your brain that truth is the default setting. It builds a tolerance for the minor discomfort of honesty, which prepares you for the major discomfort of difficult ethical stands later on.Second, identify your "Ethical Blind Spots." We all have them. Maybe you are incredibly honest with money, but you tend to exaggerate stories to be the center of attention. Maybe you would never steal a pen from the office, but you regularly steal time by scrolling social media when you are on the clock. Be honest with yourself about where your weak points are. You cannot fortify a wall if you don't know where the cracks are. Once you identify a blind spot, set a specific rule for it. If you doom-scroll at work, use an app blocker. If you exaggerate stories, practice the discipline of understatement.Third, find an "Accountability Mirror." This can be a person—a mentor, a partner, a friend who you know will tell you the unvarnished truth. Give them permission to call you out. Ask them, "Do you ever see me compromising on my values? Do I ever come across as disingenuous?" It takes courage to ask that question, and it takes even more courage to listen to the answer without getting defensive. But that external perspective is invaluable. We are often the best lawyers for our own defense, rationalizing our bad behavior. You need a judge.Fourth, change your language. Words shape reality. Stop using euphemisms that disguise unethical behavior. Don't call it "creative accounting"; call it "fraud." Don't call it "padding the resume"; call it "lying." Don't call it "office politics"; call it "manipulation." When you use the raw, ugly words to describe the actions, they lose their seductive power. It becomes much harder to commit fraud than it is to engage in creative accounting. By stripping away the corporate speak, you force yourself to confront the reality of what you are doing.Let's return to the concept of the "Compromised World" for a moment. It is easy to become cynical. It is easy to look at the billionaire who cheated his way to the top and feel like a fool for playing by the rules. You might think, "nice guys finish last." But I want you to challenge that definition of "winning." If winning means having a massive bank account but being unable to sleep without medication because of the stress of your deception, is that winning? If winning means being the CEO but having a family that despises you and a staff that fears you, is that winning?We need to redefine success to include the quality of our inner life. A "clean" success—one achieved through hard work, smart strategy, and ethical behavior—tastes different. It is sustainable. It is robust. It belongs to you in a way that stolen success never can. When you achieve something honestly, no one can take it away from you by revealing a secret. You own it completely.There is also a ripple effect to consider. We often underestimate the power of our own example. In a corrupt workplace, one person acting with integrity can change the atmosphere. It is contagious. When you refuse to gossip, you create a safe space for others to stop gossiping. When you admit a mistake openly instead of covering it up, you give permission for your team to be honest about their failures, which leads to faster problem solving. You have the power to set the standard. You are not just a passive observer of the culture; you are a creator of it.This is particularly true for those of you in leadership positions. If you are a manager, your team is watching you like hawks. They are looking for cues on how to behave. If they see you fudge a number, they will fudge ten. If they see you lie to a client, they will lie to you. The culture of a team is a reflection of the worst behavior the leader is willing to tolerate—in themselves and in others. If you want a high-performance team, you must demand high integrity, and you must embody it first.Now, let's address the naysayers. There will be people who tell you that this advice is naive. They will say, "This is the real world, you have to get your hands dirty." To them, I say: Look at the long game. The graveyards of industry are filled with the careers of people who thought they were smarter than the truth. They thought they could outrun the consequences. They thought they could manage the web of lies. They were wrong. The house of cards always falls. It might take a year, it might take ten, but gravity always wins. Building on a foundation of integrity is the only way to build a structure that withstands the storms of life.Navigating this path requires a specific kind of courage. It isn't the loud, heroic courage of the movies. It is a quiet, daily courage. It is the courage to be the only person in the room not laughing at an inappropriate joke. It is the courage to say, "I don't think that's the right way to handle this," when everyone else is nodding along. It is the courage to accept a short-term loss for a long-term gain. This is the courage that builds character. And character, in the end, is destiny.As we move toward the conclusion of this discussion, I want to leave you with a strategy for when you feel overwhelmed by the corruption around you. It is called "The Circle of Control." You cannot control the politicians. You cannot control the economy. You often cannot control your company's upper management. When you focus on these things, you feel helpless and angry, which makes you more likely to say, "Screw it, why should I try?"Instead, draw a small circle around yourself. Inside that circle are your actions, your words, your work ethic, and your treatment of others. That is your kingdom. Rule it wisely. Make that circle a zone of absolute integrity. No matter how chaotic or corrupt the world outside that circle becomes, inside the circle, standards are maintained. Inside the circle, promises are kept. Inside the circle, truth is spoken.What you will find is that over time, your circle will expand. People will want to be in your circle. They will want to hire you, partner with you, and follow you, because your circle is a refuge of sanity and reliability in a crazy world.So, here is your homework. I want you to take one specific action today. Not tomorrow, today. Identify one small area where you have been letting your standards slip. Maybe it's how you talk to your spouse. Maybe it's how much effort you put into your work when the boss isn't looking. Maybe it's a small recurring lie you tell to avoid conflict. Fix it. Right now. Send the text, make the apology, redo the work. Reclaim that piece of territory for your integrity.Don't do it to be a saint. Do it to be strong. Do it because you refuse to be a passive victim of a compromised culture. Do it because the most pragmatic, powerful thing you can be in this world is a person who cannot be bought, who cannot be intimidated, and who dares to tell the truth.The world may be compromised, but you do not have to be. The corruption stops at your doorstep. The ethical fading stops with your next decision. You have the tools. You have the strategy. Now, go out there and execute. The world needs more people who are playing the long game. Be one of them.

My guest this week is game developer Tim Cain, who's shown us what the end of the world looks like. Back in the mid-90s, Tim was working with a small team on a post-apocalyptic game with a 1950s aesthetic — a weird mix of styles that Tim was worried would bomb so hard he expected his next job would be serving fast food. But … that game was Fallout, which became a massive phenomenon, with multiple sequels and a TV series based on the game that just wrapped its second season. One of the recurring themes of Fallout is people stepping out of bomb shelters and discovering there's more to life than self-isolation. Something Tim had to force himself to do when he decided it was time to emerge from the closet.Watch Tim's YouTube videos: https://www.youtube.com/@CainOnGamesAnd check out his chocolate blog: https://chocolateihaveknown.wordpress.com/Also, a quick reminder that I host weekly livestreams every Sunday on Twitch, and I hope you'll join me for those — lately we've been watching the film Strangers on a Train and comparing it to the screenplay and Hitchcock's original, even gayer cut of the film.

The Atlantic's David Frum returns to discuss Donald Trump's second term one year in. From making $1-4 billion through family enrichment and foreign deals (including Abu Dhabi investments tied to national security favors), to unprecedented corruption on a scale never seen in American history, Frum argues Trump has turned the presidency into a personal ATM — dwarfing petty scandals like Hunter Biden's.We dive into why corruption is an underrated story, the collapse of checks and balances, Supreme Court impunity, tariff-driven price hikes, the Epstein fallout shattering Trump's myth for some supporters, ICE controversies including the Minneapolis shootings, cracks in Trump's coalition (from Thomas Massie to far-right figures), JD Vance's risky plays, Kamala Harris's future, and threats to 2026/2028 elections via voter intimidation.Frum warns of kleptocracy risks, national security betrayals, and why Trump's betrayal of core conservative values (like guns) could be fatal to his movement. And that's just for starters. This is a must-listen for anyone tracking Trump's impact on democracy.Subscribe to Matt Lewis on Substack: https://mattklewis.substack.com/Support Matt Lewis at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattlewisFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MattLewisDCTwitter: https://twitter.com/mattklewisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattlewisreels/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A– Who is Matt Lewis? –Matt K.

This is the fourth in a series of eight episodes regarding America's seventh President, Andrew Jackson. Having "saved" the nation at New Orleans, Jackson parlays his newfound hero-status into the territorial governorship of Florida, a seat in the Senate representing Tennessee, and a candidate in the 1824 election to replace James Monroe. But with victory in his grasp, John Quincy Adams, with the aid of two of America's 'monsters,' John C. Calhoun and Henry Clay, conspire to play kingmaker in what would become known (in Jackson's circles) as the Corrupt Bargain.

You've heard of the cities offering sanctuary to illegals, criminals, trans people and drug dealers. But do you know the DEGREE to which law enforcement in sanctuary cities and states must go to NOT cooperate with ICE? Make it make sense. Lunden Roberts sues Hunter Biden for the $5,000 monthly child support he's not paying for the daughter he has not ever met. Jonathan Turley says the law is on Trump's side to invoke the Insurrection Act. Denmark and the US agree to form an official group to steer talks about America's acquisition of Greenland.
