The White House has reaffirmed interest in Greenland, calling its control a national security priority. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt noted the U.S. is considering a “range of options” including military force—a statement that triggered bipartisan and international backlash, with many allies denouncing any threat to Denmark’s sovereignty.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ah, I've got you right here.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
A morning, Good morning, Ricky. It's Wednesday, January seventh. Here's
what's going on in the news. The White House is
doubling down on Greenland, saying taking control of the island
is still a national security priority and that the military
is always an option. Those comments sparked immediate pushback overseas,
with European leaders back in Greenland's sovereignty. Arizona Senator Reuben
(00:24):
Gallagho is pushing back as well, introducing a resolution to
block any military action, reminding everyone that Greenland is a
self governing part of Denmark, and while Washington continues to
argue over what it can and cannot control. A new
review is underway to assess whether recently tightened fitness standards
are quietly sidelining women from frontline military roles. Critics say
(00:48):
the changes could disqualify a lot of women from combat positions,
just a decade after women were officially cleared for those roles.
The Defense Department says the review is just routine and
just a measure of red but critics say War Secretary
Pete Hegseth is just reinforcing outdated ideas about who's tough
enough to fight. So while the military decides whether women
(01:10):
are falling short or if the bar is just being
moved yet again, some of us are just trying to
hit our own targets. If intermittent fasting is part of
your new Year, New Me plan, here's what new research
is saying. A German study found that what you eat
matters way more than when you eat same calories basically
(01:30):
same results, which may explain why some people are already
eyeing Plan B. And now that plan may include a
new option. The weight loss drug with Goviy is officially
out in the US as a daily pill. For info

It feels like an opportunity to say something to you
that is really important. None of us have it all together.
You got to live with you. And I tell you,
like I would tell my own son, you just got
a minute to fix this. And none of those girls
and none of those jobs, and none of that money
(03:22):
is going to be able to fix it. And I
think you came here for me to tell you that
I pray you hear me, because I don't want you
to turn into a bitter old man with a lot
of excuses as to why he wasted his life and
wasted it rich. Please hear me. You are running out
(03:47):

Speaker 4 (04:00):
What up, Ricky?
Speaker 5 (04:02):
Good morning everybody. I'm your girl, Brett Tad Tad and
this is the hot spot. But we bring you music,
movies and more. So let's get off into it.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Well.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
Rida Brett talked about this earlier today and a lot
of people are still online talking about it too. And
I'm talking about the dress, the dress that Pastor Jamal
Bryant's wife, doctor Carrie Bryant, wore at a big event
over the holidays. Missus Bryant was recently on the Tai
Show and she defended her decision to wear the controversial dress.
And here's what she had to say.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
People have said, oh, you know, she knew it would
get this reaction. My ego is not that big. I
don't dress for people. I dress for myself and for
my husband. I am a wife. Yeah, I'm a wife.
I'm a daughter. I have a doctorate, I'm a professor.
There are plenty of things that I do. And the
(04:51):
challenge is we often want to see a woman being
one dimensional. I am multi dimensional. I happen to marry
a pastor, and so with that came the title of
first Lady. But there's no book for that. There is
no manual for what that looks like. And I have
decided that the title does not define me. I define
what the title is.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Period.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
I'm on now.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Period.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Okay, periods, ain't even nothing to say about that. I'm
gonna move on because she shut it down at the end,
ended at periods with a tea. All right, y'all moving on.
About nine months after Mary J. Bli made the headlines
for first being sued in the shocking lawsuit from Missa Hilton,
her former best friend Anne stylist, New York judges finally
tossed the case. Missa Hilton, who's also famous for being
(05:36):
Diddy's X, received a stern warning from the presiding court official.
The judge criticized Hilton and her team lawyers for making serious,
high dollar accusations and then backing away from them when challenged.
The judge also wanted to stop using what she called
bad faith litigation tactics, making it clear that if this
behavior continues, the court could impose sanctions in the future.
(06:00):
The original complaint, Mesa accused Mary of trying to convince
Rapper Vado or Vedo it's Vado. I think it's Vado,
whom she was managing, and to terminating this management agreement
and moving over to mary james production company, claiming it
Mary purposefully sabotaged her relationship with the up and cooming musician,
and Mesa saw millions in damages. Nonether two were said
(06:21):
to be friends for over thirty years before this legal battle,
so hopefully, you know, hopefully they can get over this
and come back to being friends. I mean, we women
are stronger together than we.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Are a part.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
That's how I feel. So I guess maybe congratulations that
this is over to Mary. But Mesa's doing great too.
Mesa's an amazing stylists and we love the both of them,
So we just want to say that and we hope
everything can get back to normal. All right, y'all, We're
gonna wrap up the hospital on that note, but for
