Trump Warns of Action If Iran Hangs Protesters; US to Meet With Danish, Greenlandic Officials | NTD Good Morning (Jan. 14)
The head of Iran’s judiciary system said there will be fast trials for those suspected of serious crimes during the nationwide protests sweeping the country, followed by swift punishment for those deemed guilty. President Donald Trump warned on Jan. 13, during an interview on CBS, that the United States would take action if Iran started hanging protestors. He encouraged protestors to continue demonstrating, writing on Truth Social that “help is on the way.” London-based broadcaster Iran International is reporting that at least 12,000 people may have been killed in Iran’s brutal suppression of anti-government protests. The Epoch Times is unable to verify the figures.
Officials from Greenland and Denmark will attend meetings at the White House on Wednesday, as Trump doubles down on security concerns in the region. He has said that if the United States does not take some sort of action in Greenland, China or Russia will. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said that Denmark wants to engage in dialogue, but Greenland is not for sale.
The fallout from the suspected large-scale fraud in Minnesota is intensifying. Trump says his administration will cut federal payments to sanctuary cities starting Feb. 1, accusing them of protecting criminals and enabling fraud.
