[00:00:01] In 2023, the state re-purchased the old factory
[00:00:04] Krudten here in Elling, which previously produced ammunition,
[00:00:08] but more than three years later, not a single
[00:00:12] grenade or cartridge has yet been produced, and in Vojens, the Ukrainian
[00:00:15] defense company Firepoint last year received a loan of
[00:00:18] 750 million to produce rocket fuel,
[00:00:22] but the factory has been delayed since the first groundbreaking was
[00:00:26] made. It hasn't exactly gone fast, but we are
[00:00:30] in a different place than we were when these projects started, and if we are honest, we only started
[00:00:33] taking it seriously in Denmark when
[00:00:37] the Prime Minister stood up and said buy, buy, buy in February
[00:00:40] 2025, and that is related to the war in Ukraine continuing, at the same time
[00:00:44] that we no longer believe that the Americans will come and help us, and they might rather attack
[00:00:48] Greenland. And there are two good reasons why the old
[00:00:52] Keminova factory is now in the focus of the Minister of Defense, our
[00:00:56] correspondent says. We can just look at Patriot
[00:01:00] missiles that Ukraine desperately needs, and everyone is
[00:01:03] waiting for more of them to be produced in
[00:01:07] the USA, and also at the American president's
[00:01:10] something, so Europe would really like to be able to produce such
[00:01:14] things itself, and the experiences from the battlefield show that one needs
[00:01:17] really, really large quantities, so it's about
[00:01:20] production capacity, and the other part, the other
[00:01:24] purpose is that there is a large regional
[00:01:27] workplace that has closed, it's the factory. It so
[00:01:30] happens to have a location that makes it suitable for
[00:01:34] example for weapons production, so if the minister can
[00:01:38] unite these two goals, i.e., increased
[00:01:41] production, create some local jobs, then it's
[00:01:44] a really good business for Jeppe Bros. Right now, I don't think
[00:01:48] the Danish state has the courage to throw more
[00:01:52] billions after a state-run arms production.
[00:01:55] This is something that they really want external partners to take
[00:01:59] care of. And possibly with some Danish orders behind it,
[00:02:03] but I don't think we should expect to see such a state-owned
[00:02:06] arms production on the west coast. And then Anders Frankler is ready with
[00:02:10] the weather.
[00:02:12] After a good start to November, it looks like a predominantly
[00:02:16] sunny Tuesday across most of the country, at least to start with. There might still
[00:02:19] be a bit of drizzle down south, otherwise it's mostly cloudy, but a
[00:02:23] clearing from the north, spreading across the country, brings
[00:02:26] a cold morning, but also good chances for
[00:02:30] beautiful and sunny weather. There might also be some fog in some places to start with,
[00:02:33] but as the morning progresses, the clearing spreads further south,
[00:02:37] and then it's large parts of the country, with the exception of Southern Jutland, the South Funen
[00:02:40] archipelago, and then Lolland and Falster, and perhaps also Bornholm, which are still covered by this
[00:02:44] cloudy weather. During the afternoon, still with relatively calm
[00:02:48] wind conditions, and the wind comes down from the northeast, and it's dry, also clear
[00:02:51] air, which gives us this predominantly sunny weather, and it might be that you'll be cheated of it
[00:02:55] down here or furthest south, otherwise it's set for a
[00:02:58] beautiful day. The coming couple of days will at
[00:03:02] least initially continue in the same vein, with a Wednesday
[00:03:05] where there are good chances of sun after a night with night frost, also the night to
[00:03:09] Thursday can turn out to have a few degrees of frost in the inner part of
[00:03:13] Jutland, especially up to around 11-12 degrees. During the day, the
[00:03:16] wind will shift towards the west, but that's something that seeps in over the country, and
[00:03:20] then Friday and Saturday, a slightly different type of weather, still this high pressure close
[00:03:24] to us, but the wind comes from the south and southeast, it's more humid air, and that gives
[00:03:27] cloudy weather and also slightly colder weather.
[00:03:41] Here's a news overview from TVA Live.
[00:03:44] Welcome. At least four Danish companies have
[00:03:48] so far reported that they have been affected by the hacker attack against cooling and
[00:03:51] freezing facilities in
[00:03:53] companies that are interested. We are also Europe. This was announced by the Agency for Enterprise Security to us Monday
[00:03:56] evening. So we take all attacks, uh,
[00:04:00] seriously, especially when you can say that cyber can be used to
[00:04:03] manipulate something physical, and many companies unfortunately have their
[00:04:06] production systems connected to the internet, and that means
[00:04:10] opponents. And yes, Lasse, you are that if you can go in and manipulate the company's systems, you hinder
[00:04:13] their production, or you can destroy the production, uh, so that's
[00:04:17] something we take very seriously. According to the agency, it concerns a
[00:04:20] food producer, a catering company, and a
[00:04:24] biotech company. And here
[00:04:27] in Belgium, over 50 supermarkets have been affected. In several places,
[00:04:30] hackers have changed temperature settings to
[00:04:33] 50 degrees. Danfoss confirms that an
[00:04:37] older control system from the company has been hacked. It is still
[00:04:40] unknown what consequences the attacks have had for the Danish
[00:04:46] opponents. And yes, Lasse, you are companies. We urge Danish companies to investigate whether
[00:04:50] their internet or their production firms are connected to
[00:04:53] the internet. Even if they don't think they are, go in and investigate an extra
[00:04:56] time, and if they are connected, then go in and make sure that they are
[00:05:00] updated, uh, and that you actually consider, is there really a need
[00:05:04] for them to be connected to the internet, uh, because it makes them extremely
[00:05:07] vulnerable when they are. In Sweden,
[00:05:10] the attack affected several stores from supermarket chains
[00:05:14] Korup and ICA, where frozen and refrigerated goods became
[00:05:17] inedible, and it is only a few weeks after
[00:05:20] similar hacker attacks took place in France and the Netherlands, also
[00:05:24] here systems from Danish Danfoss
[00:05:27] were hacked. Empty shelves in the freezer here in
[00:05:31] the ICA supermarket in the Swedish town
[00:05:33] Sjöbo. Is it to scare
[00:05:36] people or is it purely sabotage because
[00:05:39] they can sabotage? Peter Kjalberg
[00:05:43] has to settle for groceries after unknown hackers gained access to
[00:05:46] the cooling system and turned up the temperature. It is
[00:05:50] scary that we are so vulnerable, especially if
[00:05:53] so many have been hit in different countries
[00:05:56] simultaneously. Large quantities of food were inedible and
[00:06:00] ready for the trash. This is a kind of
[00:06:03] warfare, so to speak, that one hacks things.
[00:06:07] Worried faces are also seen in a hacked supermarket in
[00:06:10] Stockholm. It is a latent threat,
[00:06:14] an invisible threat, so when such types of
[00:06:17] incidents occur, it is clear that there is concern.
[00:06:21] Hackers have gained access to supermarkets in Sweden, Ireland,
[00:06:24] Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Estonia, among others, via systems
[00:06:28] from Danish Danfoss, but
[00:06:31] a Danish company has also been under attack. An expert in
[00:06:34] cybersecurity has an explanation for why we are seeing so many attacks against
[00:06:37] supermarkets. It could easily be someone who wants to create distrust,
[00:06:41] create noise, create uncertainty in Europe, among
[00:06:45] other things, in relation to what is happening in Russia and
[00:06:47] Ukraine.
[00:06:51] In a few hours, polling stations in the USA will open, when
[00:06:54] Americans will cast their vote in the midterm elections,
[00:06:57] and here Monday evening, President Donald Trump delivered his
[00:07:01] concluding messages to voters in a speech. Here,
[00:07:05] Trump highlighted the good things he believes Republicans have
[00:07:08] done while they have had power.
[00:07:12] in two years in any administration in American history and I've kept
[00:07:15] every single promise I made except far
[00:07:19] more. I've actually kept far more promises than I
[00:07:22] made. We've done much more than I promise. And we have
[00:07:26] the most secure border in American history. Right now we have a
[00:07:29] border that the people that make up the list and I don't make them
[00:07:33] up. We've gone 17 months
[00:07:36] without one person entering our
[00:07:39] country illegally from the southern border. The speech
[00:07:43] took place here in front of the newly renovated reflecting pool at the Lincoln
[00:07:46] Memorial. The president used the first 20 minutes of his
[00:07:50] speech to highlight the pool, which earlier this year was
[00:07:53] renovated for almost 100 million kroner, and has been
[00:07:56] surrounded by much criticism. Subsequently,
[00:07:59] Trump also talked about how he believes the Democrats will
[00:08:02] cheat in
[00:08:03] the election.
[00:08:12] Alaska, the democrats conspire to get fake Dan
[00:08:16] Sullivan on the ballot to confuse voters and run
[00:08:19] against the real Dan Sullivan, so they got somebody
[00:08:23] named Dan Sullivan to run against Dan Sullivan, and
[00:08:26] hoping that and it would, it would do that, but it's corrupt,
[00:08:30] it's uh, it's really a fraud fraudulent
[00:08:34] election. And then you're with us, Lasse Engelbrecht, our
[00:08:37] USA reporter, and you're with us from Texas. How much do
[00:08:41] Trump's accusations of election fraud here in the final stretch of
[00:08:45] the election campaign affect things?
[00:08:47] They actually affect things more and more, I think. I was actually a bit surprised that he
[00:08:51] chose to spend time on it in his speech here. We've heard it at his
[00:08:55] many, many rallies or voter meetings he's held. The man has held something like
[00:08:59] 6-27 rallies in the last month, and it's been repeated, but
[00:09:03] it's also repeated in all sorts of other contexts and by other
[00:09:06] politicians. And how else would you summarize the messages that
[00:09:10] Trump has had for voters here? These weeks
[00:09:13] in the final stretch until
[00:09:14] the election?
[00:09:17] Well, first and foremost, the goal from the Republican side has probably been to get him to emphasize
[00:09:21] what Republicans have actually accomplished, what Trump has accomplished,
[00:09:25] because it's actually quite a lot:
[00:09:28] border policy, tax cuts, and so
[00:09:31] on. But it has also been a strategy, I think, to
[00:09:34] bash the Democrats. A lot of time has been spent on personal
[00:09:37] attacks on various politicians, including
[00:09:41] Senate candidate James Tellerico down here, who seems to have a
[00:09:44] chance to win and make history. No Senate candidate has been
[00:09:48] elected down here since 1988, so Trump has
[00:09:51] really thrown everything into this fight, primarily
[00:09:54] in the form of a campaign against his
[00:09:58] in Texas, and we'll get back to that, so stay tuned, because the southern state of Texas is
[00:10:02] one of the states everyone is talking about. Here, Trump's
[00:10:05] Republican party is normally safe, but now the
[00:10:09] Democrats believe that for the first time in more than 30 years, they can
[00:10:12] win. From the higher altitudes, it looks like a busy
[00:10:15] construction site,
[00:10:19] but from his car, Mario Guerrero can only see a kind of unfinished
[00:10:22] ghost town.
[00:10:29] Mario Guerrero leads the largest trade union in the area for craftsmen, craftsmen who lack
[00:10:33] work.
[00:10:38] Here in Texas, Latinos make up 61% of
[00:10:40] the construction industry.
[00:10:43] But many of them no longer dare to come to
[00:10:44] work.
[00:10:49] Every time Trump has been up for election, Mariero has voted for
[00:10:52] him. But tomorrow their paths will diverge.
[00:11:07] It is estimated that over half of all Latinos in Texas voted for
[00:11:11] Donald Trump in the presidential election, but in the midterm elections tomorrow, it seems that
[00:11:14] precisely people like restaurant owner Gonzales will punish the
[00:11:18] Republicans.
[00:11:25] Like everywhere else in the USA, people here in Texas are struggling with the
[00:11:28] economy, but due to the large proportion of Latinos in
[00:11:32] Texas, about 40%, the immigration authorities,
[00:11:35] ICE, and their methods have made a particularly strong impression.
[00:11:50] Mario Guerrero now follows the election campaign from his office, but regardless of
[00:11:53] the result, it is clear.
[00:12:03] Yes, Lasse, you know Texas very well, and no matter who ends up
[00:12:07] winning the state here, there has been a movement. What has
[00:12:11] changed in this otherwise Republican
[00:12:13] area?
[00:12:16] Well, first and foremost, what is happening is that Donald Trump's popularity has
[00:12:19] plummeted. The Iran war and the Epstein files have cost a lot,
[00:12:23] but things are also happening in Texas. The big cities in Texas like San
[00:12:26] Antonio, Dallas, Austin, Houston, they have become
[00:12:29] democratic, which means there are many voters there who
[00:12:33] could be a problem for the Republicans.
[00:12:36] The Republicans in Texas have what they call a firewall, and that's the whole
[00:12:39] country around these big cities, that's where I am right now. They still hope
[00:12:43] that the Christian and conservative voters here will come out and vote for them, because
[00:12:47] if they don't, then the Republicans and Trump are in serious
[00:12:50] trouble, and Lasse, this has been a long build-up to this election this
[00:12:54] time. What will you be particularly watching for in the next 24 hours, when things really
[00:12:58] get started?
[00:13:00] I
[00:13:03] think I'll be watching the conservative
[00:13:06] states that Republicans usually win, a sure thing, Texas
[00:13:10] for example, but it could also be Kansas, it could be Iowa, it could be a whole series of states where
[00:13:14] Democrats suddenly seem to be doing very well, being
[00:13:17] competitive. If they start to fall, it could have a crucial
[00:13:21] impact on the Senate, so I would keep an eye on that tomorrow if I were... if I were
[00:13:25] you.
[00:13:30] At least 24 have been killed and five wounded in
[00:13:33] Russian attacks on this village in the Zaporizhia region
[00:13:37] in Ukraine since Monday morning. President
[00:13:41] Zelensky announced this on X. According to Reuters, the attacks hit a school
[00:13:45] where aid was distributed and a shelter where people sought
[00:13:49] refuge.
[00:13:51] The course of the TV2 series "Everybody Loves Rasmus" will be investigated
[00:13:55] by the TV station's own Legal Department and
[00:13:57] viewer editor. This was announced by TV2 on Monday after several
[00:14:01] days of harsh criticism of the broadcast, which has now been taken down.
[00:14:04] The investigation will review the decisions behind the production
[00:14:07] and publication and uncover whether TV2 has followed
[00:14:11] its own ethical guidelines. TV2 has
[00:14:14] not yet responded to DR's
[00:14:16] inquiries.
[00:14:21] Defense Minister Jeppe Boos will investigate whether weapons can be produced
[00:14:25] on the site where the old chemical company,
[00:14:28] Kiminova,
[00:14:29] is located.
[00:14:33] The Minister of Defense lands in a helicopter at the chemical site to take
[00:14:37] a closer look at the area at Harboyer and Tange by the Limfjord. The
[00:14:41] scandal-ridden company closes at New Year, and now the
[00:14:44] ministry will investigate whether weapons can be produced from the site at
[00:14:48] a fast pace. I see a large stream of
[00:14:52] companies that want to. We are also in the process of establishing a number of
[00:14:55] Ukrainian companies in Denmark, and it is true that there are other places
[00:14:58] where it has gone too slowly, that is why we also need action, and that is why I am here
[00:15:02] today. In 2023, the state
[00:15:06] repurchased the old factory Krudten here in Elling, which previously manufactured
[00:15:10] ammunition, but more than three years later, not a single
[00:15:13] grenade or cartridge has been produced. And in Vojens,
[00:15:17] the Ukrainian defense company Firepoint last year received a loan of
[00:15:21] 750 million to produce rocket fuel.
[00:15:25] The factory has been delayed since the first groundbreaking was
[00:15:28] made. It hasn't exactly gone fast, but we are
[00:15:32] in a different place than we were when these projects started, and if we are honest, we only started
[00:15:36] taking it seriously in Denmark when the Prime Minister stood up and said buy, buy,
[00:15:39] buy in February 2025, and that is related
[00:15:42] to the war in Ukraine continuing, at the same time that we no longer believe that
[00:15:46] Americans will come and help us, and they might rather attack
[00:15:49] Greenland. And there are two good reasons why the old
[00:15:52] Keminova factory is now in the focus of the Minister of Defense, our
[00:15:56] correspondent says. We
[00:15:58] can just look at Patriot missiles that
[00:16:02] Ukraine desperately needs, and everyone is waiting for them to
[00:16:05] be able to produce more of them in the USA and also on the
[00:16:09] American president's something, so Europe would really
[00:16:12] like to be able to produce such things itself, and the experiences from
[00:16:16] the battlefield show that one needs really, really large
[00:16:20] quantities, so it's about production capacity,
[00:16:23] and the other part, the other purpose is that there is a
[00:16:26] large regional workplace that has closed, it's
[00:16:29] the factory. It so happens to have a location that
[00:16:33] makes it suitable for example to be used
[00:16:36] for arms production, so if the minister can unite
[00:16:39] the two purposes, i.e., increased production, create
[00:16:43] some local jobs, then it's a really good
[00:16:46] business for Jeppe Bros. Right now, I don't think
[00:16:50] the Danish state has the courage to throw more billions after
[00:16:54] a state-controlled weapons production.
[00:16:57] This is something that they would really like external partners to take care
[00:17:00] of, possibly with some Danish orders behind it, but
[00:17:04] such a state-owned production
[00:17:08] I don't think you should expect to see on the west coast. And then Anders
[00:17:11] Brand is ready with the weather.
[00:17:14] After a good start to November, it is therefore set for a predominantly
[00:17:18] sunny Tuesday across most of the country, at least to get up to. There might
[00:17:22] still be a bit of drizzle down south, or else it is mostly cloudy, but a
[00:17:25] clearing from the north, so spreading down over the country, gives
[00:17:29] a cold morning, but also good chances for beautiful and
[00:17:32] sunny weather. There can also be some fog in some places to start
[00:17:36] with, but as the morning progresses, the clearing spreads further to the south,
[00:17:40] and then it is large parts of the country, with the exception of Southern Jutland, the South Funen archipelago, and
[00:17:44] then Lolland and Falstov, and perhaps also Bornholm, which are still covered by this
[00:17:47] cloudy weather. During the afternoon, still with relatively calm wind conditions, and the wind
[00:17:51] comes down from the Northeast, and it is dry, also clear air, which
[00:17:54] gives us this predominantly sunny weather, and it may well be that you will be cheated of it
[00:17:58] down here, furthest to the south, otherwise it is set for a beautiful November day.
[00:18:03] The coming couple of days will at least initially continue in the same vein with
[00:18:07] a Wednesday where there are good chances of sun after a night
[00:18:10] with night frost, also the night to Thursday can turn out to have a few
[00:18:14] degrees of frost in the inner part of Jutland, especially up to around 11-12 degrees
[00:18:18] during the day, the wind turns towards the west, but that's something that seeps
[00:18:21] into the country, and then Friday and Saturday, a slightly different weather type, still
[00:18:25] this high pressure close to us, but the wind comes from the south and southeast, it's more humid
[00:18:29] air, and that gives cloudy weather and also slightly colder
[00:18:32] weather.
[00:18:44] Here's a news overview from TVA Live.
[00:18:46] Welcome. At least four Danish companies have so far
[00:18:50] reported that they have been affected by the hacker attack against cooling and
[00:18:54] freezing facilities in Europe. This was announced by
[00:18:56] the Agency for Enterprise Security to us Monday
[00:18:59] evening. So we take all attacks seriously.
[00:19:03] Especially when you can say that you can use cyber to manipulate something
[00:19:06] physical. And many companies unfortunately have their production systems connected to
[00:19:10] the internet, and that means that if you can go in and manipulate
[00:19:14] the company's systems, you hinder their production, or you can destroy
[00:19:17] the production, uh, so that's something we take very seriously.
[00:19:21] According to the agency, it concerns a food producer, a
[00:19:25] catering company, and a biotech company. And
[00:19:29] here in Belgium, over 50 supermarkets have been affected.
[00:19:32] Several places, hackers have changed temperature settings to
[00:19:35] 50 degrees. Danfoss confirms that an
[00:19:39] older control system from the company has been hacked. It is still
[00:19:43] unknown what consequences the attacks have had for the Danish
[00:19:47] companies? We urged Danish companies to
[00:19:50] investigate whether their internet or their
[00:19:54] production systems are connected to the internet. Even if they don't
[00:19:57] think so, go in and check an extra time, and if they are connected, then go
[00:20:01] in and make sure they are updated, uh, and that you
[00:20:04] actually consider if there's really a need for them to be connected
[00:20:07] to the internet, because that makes them extremely vulnerable when they are.
[00:20:11] In Sweden, the attack affected several
[00:20:14] stores from the supermarket chains Korup and ICA, where
[00:20:18] frozen and refrigerated goods became inedible. And it's
[00:20:21] only a few weeks after similar hacker attacks took place in
[00:20:25] France and the Netherlands, also here systems from Danish
[00:20:29] Danfoss were hacked.
[00:20:31] Empty shelves in the freezer here in the ICA supermarket in the Swedish
[00:20:35] town of Sjöbo. Is it to scare
[00:20:39] people or is it purely sabotage because
[00:20:42] one can sabotage? Pida Kilberg
[00:20:45] has to make do with groceries after unknown hackers gained access to
[00:20:49] the cooling system.
[00:20:52] It is scary that we are so vulnerable, especially if
[00:20:55] so many have been hit overnight in different
[00:20:58] countries simultaneously. Large quantities of food were
[00:21:01] inedible and ready for
[00:21:03] the trash.
[00:21:09] There are also worried faces in a
[00:21:11] hacked supermarket in Stockholm. It is
[00:21:14] a latent threat, an invisible threat
[00:21:18] so when such types of. Hackers
[00:21:24] have gained access to supermarkets in Sweden, Ireland, Belgium,
[00:21:28] Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Estonia, among other things via systems from Danish
[00:21:31] Danfoss, but a Danish company has also been under
[00:21:35] attack. An expert in cybersecurity has an explanation for why
[00:21:38] we are seeing so many attacks against supermarkets. It could easily be
[00:21:42] someone who wants to create distrust, create noise, create
[00:21:45] uncertainty in Europe, among other things, in relation to what is happening in Russia
[00:21:49] and.
[00:21:53] In a few hours, polling stations in the USA will open, when Americans
[00:21:57] will cast their vote in the midterm elections, and
[00:22:00] here Monday evening, President Donald Trump delivered his
[00:22:04] concluding messages to voters in a speech. Here,
[00:22:07] Trump highlighted the good things he believes Republicans have
[00:22:11] done while they have had power. We've achieved
[00:22:14] more and less than two years than any administration in American history, and
[00:22:18] I've kept every single... promise I made except far
[00:22:21] more, I've actually kept far more promises than I
[00:22:25] made, we've done much more than I promised. And we have
[00:22:28] the most secure border in American history right now, we have a
[00:22:32] border that the people that make up the list and I don't make them
[00:22:36] up, we've gone 17 months
[00:22:39] without one person entering
[00:22:41] our country illegally from the southern
[00:22:44] border. The speech took place here in front of the newly renovated
[00:22:47] reflecting pool at the Lincoln Memorial. The president used
[00:22:51] the first 20 minutes of his speech to highlight the pool, which earlier
[00:22:55] this year was renovated for almost 100 million kroner, and has been
[00:22:59] surrounded by much criticism. Subsequently,
[00:23:02] Trump also talked about how he believes the Democrats will
[00:23:05] cheat in
[00:23:06] the election.
[00:23:14] Very corrupt in Alaska, the Democrats conspired to get
[00:23:18] fake Dan Sullivan on the ballot
[00:23:20] to confuse voters and run against the real Dan
[00:23:23] Sullivan, so they got somebody named Dan Sullivan to run against
[00:23:27] Dan Sullivan and hoping that and it would, it would
[00:23:31] do that, but it's corrupt, it's uh, it's
[00:23:35] really a fraud fraudulent election. And
[00:23:38] then you're with us, Lasse Engelbrecht, our USA reporter, and you're with
[00:23:41] us from Texas. How much do Trump's accusations of
[00:23:45] election fraud here in the final stretch of
[00:23:47] the election campaign affect things?
[00:23:50] "They actually affect things more and more, I think. I was actually a bit surprised that he
[00:23:54] chose to spend time on that speech here. We've heard it at his
[00:23:58] many, many rallies or voter meetings he's held. The man has held something like
[00:24:02] 627 rallies in the last month, and it's been repeated, but it's
[00:24:05] also repeated in all sorts of other contexts and by other
[00:24:08] politicians. And how else would you summarize the
[00:24:11] messages that Trump has had for the voters here
[00:24:15] in the final stretch leading up to the
[00:24:17] election."
[00:24:20] So first and foremost, the goal was probably for him to emphasize what Republicans have actually
[00:24:24] accomplished, what Trump has accomplished,
[00:24:27] because that's actually a lot:
[00:24:30] border policy, tax cuts, and so
[00:24:33] on. But it's also been a strategy, I think, to
[00:24:36] relentlessly attack the Democrats, who have spent a lot
[00:24:39] of time making personal attacks on various politicians, including
[00:24:43] Senate candidate James Tellerico here, whose chances of winning and making history
[00:24:47] look good. There hasn't been a elected
[00:24:50] Senate candidate here since 1988, so Trump has
[00:24:53] really thrown everything into this campaign, primarily
[00:24:57] in the form of fighting his
[00:25:00] in Texas, and we'll come back to that, so just hold on,
[00:25:04] because the southern state of Texas is one of the states everyone
[00:25:08] is talking about. Here, Trump's Republican party is usually
[00:25:11] safe, but now the Democrats believe that for the first time
[00:25:14] in more than 30 years, they can win. From the
[00:25:17] higher altitudes, it looks like a busy construction
[00:25:20] site, but from his car, Mario can only see
[00:25:24] a kind of unfinished
[00:25:25] ghost car.
[00:25:30] Mario Galileo leads the area's largest trade union for
[00:25:33] craftsmen. Craftsmen who are missing
[00:25:36] their day.
[00:25:40] Here in Texas, Latinos make up 61% of
[00:25:43] the construction industry.
[00:25:45] But many of them no longer dare to come to work.
[00:25:51] Every single time Trump has been on the ballot, Mario has voted for
[00:25:55] him, but tomorrow, their paths will diverge. You guys are picking up
[00:25:58] people that are here that have not been that have not.
[00:26:32] But because of the large proportion of Latinos in Texas, about 40%,
[00:26:36] the immigration authorities ICE and their methods have made
[00:26:39] a particularly strong impression.
[00:26:52] Mario Guerrero is now following the election campaign from his office, but regardless of
[00:26:56] the result, he is ready to protect his
[00:26:58] members.
[00:27:06] Yes, Lasse, you know Texas very well, and no matter who ends up
[00:27:09] winning the state here, there has been a movement. What has
[00:27:13] changed in this otherwise Republican
[00:27:16] area?
[00:27:18] Well, first and foremost, what's happening is that Donald Trump's popularity has
[00:27:22] plummeted. The Iran war, the Epstein files have cost a lot,
[00:27:25] but things are also happening in Texas. The big cities in Texas like San Antonio,
[00:27:29] Dallas, Austin, Houston, they have become
[00:27:32] democratic, meaning there are many voters there, which could
[00:27:35] be a problem for Republicans.
[00:27:38] Republicans in Texas have what they call a fire wall, and that's the whole
[00:27:42] country around these big cities, that's where I am right now. They still
[00:27:46] hope that the Christian and conservative voters here will come out and vote for them, and
[00:27:50] if they don't, then Republicans and Trump are in considerable
[00:27:53] difficulties. And Lasse, this has been what feels like
[00:27:56] a long prelude to this election this time. What will you be particularly keeping
[00:28:00] an eye on over the next 24 hours, when things really kick
[00:28:03] off?
[00:28:05] I think I'll be keeping an eye on the conservative
[00:28:09] states, which Republicans usually win outright, Texas for
[00:28:13] example, but it could also be Kansas, it could be Iowa, it could be a whole host of states where
[00:28:16] Democrats suddenly seem to be doing very well, being
[00:28:20] competitive. If they start to fall, it could have a decisive
[00:28:23] impact on the Senate, so that's what I would keep an eye on tomorrow, if I were
[00:28:27] you.
[00:28:32] At least 24 have been killed and five injured in
[00:28:36] Russian attacks on this village in the Zaporizhzhia region
[00:28:40] of Ukraine since Monday morning. This was announced by President
[00:28:44] Zelensky on X. According to Reuters, the attacks hit a school
[00:28:47] where humanitarian aid was being distributed and a shelter where people sought
[00:28:51] refuge.
[00:28:54] The production of the TV2 series "Everyone Loves Rasmus" is to be investigated by
[00:28:57] the TV station's own legal department and
[00:29:00] viewer editor. This was announced on Monday after several days of
[00:29:04] strong criticism of the broadcast, which has now been taken down. The investigation will
[00:29:08] review the decisions behind the production and publication, and
[00:29:12] determine whether TV2 has followed its own ethical
[00:29:14] guidelines. TV2 has not yet responded to DR's
[00:29:18] inquiries.
[00:29:23] Defense Minister Jeppe Bos will investigate whether weapons can be produced
[00:29:27] on the site where the old chemical company
[00:29:31] Cheminova is located.
[00:29:36] The Defense Minister landed by helicopter at the chemical site to inspect
[00:29:39] the area at Harboør and Tange by the Limfjord. The
[00:29:43] scandal-ridden company will close at New Year, and now the ministry
[00:29:47] will investigate whether weapons can instead be produced from the site at a high
[00:29:50] pace. We are experiencing a large influx of
[00:29:56] in the process of establishing a number of Ukrainian companies in
[00:29:59] Denmark, and yes, there are other places where it has been too slow.
[00:30:02] That's why we also need action, and that's why I'm here today. In
[00:30:06] 2023, the state bought the old Krudten factory here in
[00:30:10] Elling, which previously produced ammunition, but more than three
[00:30:14] years later, not a single shell or cartridge has been produced.
[00:30:17] And in Vojens, the Ukrainian defense company
[00:30:21] Firepoint received a loan last year of 750 million to
[00:30:25] produce rocket fuel, but the factory has been
[00:30:29] delayed since the first groundbreaking. 'It certainly
[00:30:32] hasn't been fast, but we are also in a different place than we were when
[00:30:36] these projects started, and if we're honest, we only started taking it seriously in Denmark when
[00:30:40] the Prime Minister stood up and said buy, buy, buy in February
[00:30:44] 2025, and that's because the war in Ukraine continues, and at the same time, we no longer
[00:30:47] believe that the Americans will come and help us, and they might rather attack
[00:30:51] Greenland, and there are two good reasons why the old
[00:30:55] Cheminova factory is now in the Defense Minister's focus, says
[00:30:58] our correspondent.' We can just look at the Patriot
[00:31:02] missiles that uh.
