The Socialist Program with Brian Becker

Greenland, Panama, Gulf of Mexico: Trump’s Cowboy Colonialism Isn’t a Joke

Trump previewed his priorities in a press conference this week, saying he would consider military force to seize the Panama Canal and Greenland, declare the Gulf of Mexico the ‘Gulf of America,’ and that “all hell will break out” if the Israeli hostages are not returned by the day he takes office on January 20, 2025.

Brian Becker and Eugene Puryear discuss the real priorities and policies to expect from the incoming government of billionaires.

Brian is joined by Eugene Puryear, an author and political organizer, and co-host of The Freedom Side LIVE, a live video show every Thursday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern on BreakThrough News.
