1 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,639 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Carl Jackson Show. This is your daily 2 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 1: dose of freedom. We've got a lot to talk about tonight. 3 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: I am going to be focusing on Marco Rubio's speech 4 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,959 Speaker 1: in Munich and also AOC and how her presidential run 5 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: has come to an end before it's even begun, so 6 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: we'll get into that. Also the part show government shutdown 7 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: involving TSA, FEMA and also the Coast Guard, we'll talk 8 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 1: about that is we'll talk about that as well. The 9 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: Obama era two thousand and nine and Endangerment Finding. This 10 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: is one of the biggest deregulation stories I think in 11 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 1: modern American history. It's not getting a lot of press, 12 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: but this is going to help you out tremendously, so 13 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 1: I want to talk about it. We're going to have 14 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: an expert on with us on Thursday evening to talk 15 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: about it. But I'm just going to give you some 16 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: of the basic things that were accomplished with the Trump 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: administration ending this Obama era finding. What is it called 18 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: the finding, the Endangerment Finding. So I've had Mark Morain 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: on to talk about this before he will join us 20 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: again later this week. But I want to make sure 21 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 1: that we make mention of it, because it is absolutely huge. 22 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: We are done with the decline again. We're going to 23 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: get into the Marco Rubio speech. Also, Trump's weighty decision 24 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: on Iran. Listen, I think, listen, this isn't a this 25 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: isn't an easy decision. I understand a lot of people 26 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: don't want Trump to get involved so deeply in a 27 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: foreign policy, but frankly, I believe that if Trump knocks 28 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: out Iran, and if we can do this without Obviously 29 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,479 Speaker 1: this isn't going to be easy, but if Trump could 30 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: knock out the mulas of Iran and the ayah Toola 31 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: and give the people a chance in Iran, I think 32 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: the options going forward are perhaps better for not just 33 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: for the people of Iran, but frankly for the world 34 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: as we know it. So I will get into that 35 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: as well. Also, stop calling it President's Day. Did you 36 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: guys know that there's no such thing as President's Day. 37 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 1: There was never a law and acted inside of the 38 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: United States to call President's Day President's Day. We would 39 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: celebrate George Washington's birthday. Later we added Lincoln's birthday. I'm 40 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: just going to give you my take on that. I 41 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: think that we should return to calling it George Washington 42 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: Day or and Abraham Lincoln's birthday. I think we should 43 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,679 Speaker 1: celebrate those birthdays. And so I'll get into why momentarily. 44 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: But first one of the things that I want to 45 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: do is I want to start with I want to 46 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: start with Rubio speech. Well, actually, before we get to 47 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: Rubo speech, I want to I want to show you AOC. 48 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: AOC traveled to Munich, Germany. So did some other so 49 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: did some other people on the left, people that are 50 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: wanting to become president of the United States, and so 51 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: they want to kind of secure their foreign policy bona fides. 52 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: So this this Munich Secure Conference. AOC was there, Gretchen 53 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: Whitmer was there, Governor Gavin Newsom was there, and all 54 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: of these guys are trying to again it just bolster 55 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: their foreign policy bona fides, bolster their relationships with Europe. 56 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: AOC was trying to do the thing, do the same thing. 57 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: Excuse me. There's been rumors that AOC wants to she 58 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: wants to seek higher office, whether that's the Senate and 59 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: go after Truck Schumer, whether that's the presidency itself. That's 60 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: something that she wanted to do. Perhaps she would still 61 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: have a shot in the Senate with New York. I'm 62 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: not sure of that, but she definitely if she had 63 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: any desire to learn for president, I would run the 64 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: ads from this from AOC in Munich in Munich, Germany, 65 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: because she absolutely self destructed. Let's go to cut number three, 66 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: and I want you guys to ask again. In twenty six, 67 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: there's going to be a min terms. In twenty twenty eight, 68 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: there's going to be another presidential election. I want you 69 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: guys to sit here and contemplate and think. When we 70 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: play these videos, are these the people that you want 71 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: in charge? Many people were saying that the Democrat Party 72 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: has been co opted by the left, by the Bernie Sanders, 73 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: by the aocs of the world. Ask yourself, is this 74 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: the person that you want in power? You may hate Trump, 75 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: that's fine. I want you to pay attention to his policies, 76 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: all right, personality. I get it. You may not like 77 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,799 Speaker 1: the man. His policies, not all of them have been perfect, 78 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: but he's been doing a lot of good as president 79 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: of the United States. And if we go back to 80 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: what we had under the Biden administration and probably worse, 81 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that America I'm not sure that America 82 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: could survive for a long time enduring what we endure 83 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: during the Biden administration. I mean, it was just rough. 84 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: But let's play clip number three, and then we're gonna 85 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: play Marco Rubio's speech after we go through some AOCS clips. 86 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: In its totality, we're also going to talk about the government, 87 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: the government shutdown, partial government shut down, and why the 88 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: Democrats are shutting down the government just some reminders obviously 89 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: voter id and they don't like it, so we'll get 90 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: into that. But let's start with cut number three. This 91 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: is AOC self destructing in Munich. 92 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 2: Let's roll it would and should the US actually commit 93 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 2: US troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move? 94 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 2: You know, I think that. 95 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 3: This is such a. 96 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 2: You know, I think that this is a. 97 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 3: This is of course, a very long standing policy of 98 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 3: the United States, and I think what we are hoping 99 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 3: for is that we want to make sure that we 100 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 3: never get to that point, and we want to make 101 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 3: sure that we are moving in all of our economic 102 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation 103 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 3: and for that question to even arise. 104 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: Okay, Uh, that's uh. That's AOC. I think that a 105 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: lot of people sitting in that room were like that 106 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: probably can't stand Trump. We're like, uh, mega, make America, 107 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: make America great again. Listen, China wants to China wants 108 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: to take over Taiwan. We are we already know that. Uh, 109 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean in their minds, Taiwan is is China. And 110 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,799 Speaker 1: how are you going to stop that? How is AOC 111 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: going to How is AOC going to stop that? Should 112 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: we have boots on the ground. We don't necessarily have 113 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: to have boots on the ground. We can do many 114 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: many other things that we see President Trump doing. Now, 115 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: he's weakening China, frankly by by just drill baby drilling, 116 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 1: using so I think he should use terriffs primarily against 117 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: China to continue to weaken h to continue to weaken 118 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: their economy. Look at what's happening whether Venezuela. All of 119 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: these nations were working together to try to bring down 120 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: the status of the United States of America, Russia, China, Iran, 121 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: North Korea. President Trump has weakened, has weakened Iran. China 122 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: has to take because of what President Trump has done 123 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: in Venezuela, because of what President Trump has done in Iran. 124 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: Then you have China having to second guess whether it's 125 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: worth it going into Taiwan or not. And that's because 126 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: President Trump has decided that we are going to be 127 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: a dominating force around the globe, that we are going 128 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: to be numeral owner. That's not that's not what AOC wants. 129 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: That's not something that she even gets or understands, because, 130 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: as you know, she's a communist and she wants to 131 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: bring America down to size. So if you want an 132 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: AOC in office, just understand that the world's dictators are 133 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: going to shop. Because it's obvious that she has no 134 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: clue what she's talking about. Let's go to let's go 135 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: to another another cut. This is AOC getting schooled on geography. 136 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: Cut number eleven. She talks about Venezuela. But listen to 137 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: what she says about Venezuela. Cut number eleven. 138 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 3: Please, Gabe, you know we look at what happened in Venezuela, 139 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 3: for example. 140 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 2: It is not a. 141 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:35,599 Speaker 3: Is It is not a remark on who Maduro was 142 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 3: as a leader. He canceled elections, he was an anti 143 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 3: democratic leader. That doesn't mean that we can kidnap ahead 144 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 3: of state and engage in acts of war just because 145 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 3: the nation is below the equator. 146 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: And and by the way, okay, so I'm disturbed by 147 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: the clapping. I'm equally as disturbed by the clapping as 148 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: I am of AOC going to try to be a 149 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: strong man or strong woman for the United States of 150 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: America talk foreign policy and again have no clue of 151 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: what she's talking about. I only hope now, you know, 152 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 1: mainstream media in the United States isn't going to play this, 153 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: but I'm hoping that the seals that we're clapping in 154 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: the audience will somehow get their hands on the video 155 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: that we just showed you with the picture of the 156 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: map showing that Venezuela is not below below the equator, 157 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: it's in Central America. I mean, this is dumbfounding because 158 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: this is what we have, and people like AOC. We 159 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: have social media influencers who are primarily social media influencers 160 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: that like the attention, that like the power, and they 161 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: get into legitimate power and they have no clue what 162 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: to do. They don't know how to run a country. 163 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: They don't they never run a business. I mean, they've 164 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 1: barely been out of school long enough to try to 165 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: try to run their lives on their her own. Quite frankly, 166 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: so a lot of these people, including AOC, absolutely have 167 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: no clue in what they're talking about. And remember, if 168 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, AOC went to a prestigious university. I 169 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: believe it was Boston University, So how the heck she 170 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: got in there? I have no idea. Do we have 171 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: enough time to play cut number ten gave? If not, 172 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: we'll come back and play it, and then I want 173 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: to get into Okay, So when we get back, I 174 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: want to play a couple more clips of AOC, and 175 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: then I want to get into Marco Rubio. I believe 176 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: that AOC. Essentially, if AOC wanted to run for president, 177 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 1: it's over. And actually this is an indictment on Chuck 178 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: Schumer as well, because I really do believe that if 179 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer would have put the pressure on AOC, if 180 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: he had not caltaw to the radical left of his party, 181 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: he would be in a better position to keep his 182 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: seat or remain in office if he so chooses to go. 183 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: These people are absolutely clueless, and so Chuck Schumer could 184 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: have scowed AOC. Instead, he's caltaw to her, and he's 185 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,839 Speaker 1: losing the Democrat Party as a result. We'll be back. 186 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: By the way, I do want to tell you guys 187 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: about My Pillow real quickly.

Before we get to Marco 210 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: Rubio's brilliant speech, and we're gonna break it down, and 211 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: we have to for copyright purposes. It's a twenty one 212 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: minute speech, but it's a speech worth hearing. We're gonna 213 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: pause in between and just comments, but we will get 214 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: through it. And I just think it's important for you 215 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: to hear. And I'm gonna make a case too after 216 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: you listen to Marco Rubio as to why I don't 217 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: believe that JD. Evans should be coordinated as the next 218 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: president of the United States to take over for Trump. 219 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: I know that's gonna make some people mad. I get that, 220 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying I don't want JD. Events to 221 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 1: be the next president. Frankly, his communication Still, his skills 222 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: are absolutely amazing, and may he may make a great president. 223 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: I don't leaving coronations, and frankly, the more that people 224 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: see Marco Rubio. I think it's going to be harder. 225 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be harder for people to 226 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: want a coronation for JD. Vans. And also you still 227 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: get DeSantis and lingering out there and who's doing a 228 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: fabulous job in Florida. But obviously he'll be absent once 229 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: he leaves the governorship for a few years, off the 230 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: national scene unless Trump brings them into his administration. And 231 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: he was golfing with Trump, so who knows. Maybe it's 232 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: just a friendly game of golf. Maybe it's something more. 233 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll get into that. But nonetheless, let 234 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: me take you back to the brilliant one AOC if 235 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: we can go to cut number ten she tried to, 236 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: and again we'll get to Marco Rubio' speech. And I'm 237 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: kind of doing this backwards, right. I want you to 238 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: understand that her chance is for running for president. In 239 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: my opinion, they have gone out the window. Now. I 240 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: understand that the Democrat Party, they are largely an emotional party. 241 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 1: They don't necessarily care about policy. They just want to 242 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: know who they should hate because their policies never help anyone. 243 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: That's the reason why they're bringing in a bunch of 244 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: illegals to continue to vote for them, because people that 245 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: have common sense won't vote for them, or once they 246 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: once they get some common sense, once they earn a 247 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: decent income, they don't want to vote for people that 248 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: do absolutely nothing except take a bunch of their take 249 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of their money. The Democrat Party is totally inept. 250 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: And so anyway, that's that's where we are. But I 251 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: want to play this clip for you. This is AOC 252 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: This is cut number ten voter Gabe. She tried to 253 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: bash Marco Rubio. And again we'll play this. This is 254 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: a little backwards. Then we'll play Marco Rubio speech and 255 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: you'll understand why this was a very faulty move on 256 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: her part, her career, her, if she wanted to run 257 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: for president, it's over. I think even Democrats might see 258 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: this and say, we don't need Kamala Harris part. Do 259 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: all right, cut number ten please. 260 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 3: Rubio's speech was a pure appeal to Western culture. My 261 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 3: favorite part was when he said that American cowboys came 262 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 3: from Spain. I believe the Mexicans and descendants of African 263 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 3: slave enslaved people's would like to have a word on that. 264 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: Okay, Western culture. Isn't Europe part of Western culture? Spaniards 265 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: are aren't they what we consider Latinos as well? Apparently 266 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: I didn't know this, but apparently AOC Alexandria Alcossio Cortez 267 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: is named after the guy that brought courses to the 268 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: United States. Is that anyway we'll look into them. If 269 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: that's true, that is absolutely insane and hilarious. Uh, but 270 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: Western Western civilization, that's that's that's interesting, that's interesting. As 271 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: Alec Baldwin would say this, AOC is completely clueless, and 272 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: I think she did the Democrat Party of disservice. This 273 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: is how you'll be able to tell that AOC did 274 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party of disservice by going to the Munich 275 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: Security Conference, a conference that has been going on for decades, 276 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: several decades. Now. If you see AOC being played these 277 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: video cse clips being played on MSNBC, CBS, CNN, you 278 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: know that she'll did. She did a great job. If 279 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: you don't, you know that she bombed completely. And I'm 280 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: going to I'm going to take a gamut that she 281 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: bombed completely. And that's simply because we know she did. 282 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: Now without any further ado, Wait, a minute. Do I 283 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: have one more AOC clip before we go to this 284 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: just a super cut. So let's go to Marco Rubio's speech. Now, 285 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: let me say this before we go to Marco rubio speech, 286 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: and I made mention of it briefly. I think this speech, 287 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: this speech, in my opinion, proves why we should not 288 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: have a coronation of J. D. Evans. I'm not even 289 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: saying that JD. Vance isn't a better candidate than Rubial. 290 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: For those of you that know me, if you've listened 291 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 1: to my show for any period of time, you know 292 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: that I like Rubio. I've always liked Ruvial. I was 293 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: never in love with Rubio as a senator. I thought 294 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: he was a good senator. At times, I thought he 295 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: was a great senator. I never felt like he was 296 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: an exceptional senator. Remember, Marco Rubio was part of the 297 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: Gang of Eight when he first entered the Senate. This 298 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: is something that he promised he wouldn't do, he wouldn't 299 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: work on he wouldn't work on amnesty. When he got 300 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 1: to Congress, this is what he promised those of us 301 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 1: that were in Florida. And then as soon as he 302 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: got there, he became part of the Gang of Eight 303 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 1: with John McCain and some of the other moderates out there, 304 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: and it just totally destroyed him. This is a person 305 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: I remember going to listen to a speech with a 306 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: buddy of mine that was running for Congress at the time, 307 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: Todd Long, and I went to listen to a speech 308 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: with him, and he turned to me and said, you 309 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: just watched the next president of the United States. And 310 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: for sure I thought we did. I thought we did. 311 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 1: But he comes in, he comes into the Senate, he 312 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: does it, he works with the Gang of Eight amnesty bill. 313 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: A lot of people turn on him, including myself. Trump 314 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: comes down the escalator later. That's all she wrote. That's 315 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 1: all she wrote. But now you listen to Marco Rubio, 316 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: it's like he's learned a thing or two. He's well 317 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to foreign policy. I mean, the guy 318 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: just knows his stuff. And I wonder now, having seen 319 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: and you know, illegals and you know the terrorists that 320 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: have come into our nation, the problems that open borders 321 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: have caused, I wonder if it's given him pause where 322 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: he's been like, Okay, maybe I was wrong, And I 323 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: believe that may be the case. I hope that's the case, 324 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: because the way he's speaking now, man, man, if he 325 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 1: did decide to run, that would be a primary for 326 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: your behind, as they say. Now he's said that he's 327 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: not going to do that. But listen, man, I think 328 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: that competition is a necessary thing. I don't want a coronation. 329 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: I don't want a dogfight. I don't want it to 330 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: get nasty. I know that primaries can do that. And 331 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: we'll see. I mean maybe jd Vance is kind of 332 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: you know, maybe a lot of Republicans will just say, listen, 333 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: let's go straight to jd Vance after Donald Trump. But 334 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: I would make mention of this too. You guys remember 335 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: that Vogue article where everybody was like, why would Susie 336 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: Wiles interview with Vogue magazine, a left wing magazine. I 337 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: want to remind you, guys, is something that Susie Wiles 338 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: said in that interview about JD Vance and about Marco Rubio. 339 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: And I'm not convinced. You can't convince me that President 340 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 1: Trump didn't know that she said these things. When it 341 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: comes to when it comes to jd Vance, she said, well, 342 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: jd Vance kind of came along, you know. Later I'm paraphrasing. 343 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: He came along later, you know, kind of a political guy, 344 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: kind of an opportunist. I'm paraphrasing Marco Rubio. He got 345 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: it early on. Everybody likes him, and I'm paraphrasing again. 346 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: But when I heard those comments, out of everything, all 347 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: the chaos and Republicans, no, why did she do this? 348 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: This was a big mistake on her part. 349 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 2: I just sat there. 350 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: Those comments stood out to me so much. I said 351 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: to myself, that's odd. President Trump or Susie Wiles, chief 352 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 1: of staff, says JD. Vance. We know he's a talent, 353 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: but he's kind of an opportunist. JD. Vans of course 354 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: knocked at that's just Vogue making up stuff. But Marco Rubio, 355 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: Marco Rubio came along earlier. Marco Rubio gets Trump, and 356 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing. Everyone likes Marco Rubio. Everyone likes Marco Rubio. 357 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: I just thought that was fascinating. I wondered if they 358 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: were trying to send a message. Perhaps what I'll do 359 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: is I will wait on because we got to take 360 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: a break here in just a minute or so. I 361 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: wanted to I want to start the Marco Rubio speech cleanly, 362 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: so We will do that when we get back from 363 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: the break, but before we go to the break, I 364 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: do want to make mention of a couple of things. Obviously, 365 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: President Trump is weighing the decision on Iran pretty heavily. 366 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: Hugh Hewitt, our colleague, wrote about wrote about this, or 367 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 1: opined on this on Fox News. He said, one door 368 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: is Mark Truman Reagan, and the other doors mark Carter, Obama, Biden. 369 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: President Donald Trump has to choose one again, and this 370 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: time the choice will define Trump's place in history. He writes, 371 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: on three different occasions, the forty fifth and forty seventh 372 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: president of the United States has walked through the first door. 373 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: Trump ordered the assassination of General Cassin Solomoni, the head 374 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: of the Koots Force of Around's Islamic Revolutionary Guard, that 375 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: was on January thirtieth to twenty twenty. Trump followed that 376 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: up with his second second term order to conduct Operation 377 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: Midnight Resolve that was against Around's nuclear weapons facility in 378 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: June of last year, and again with Operation Absolute Resolve 379 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: to snatch Venezuela and dictator Nicholas Maduro in January of 380 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: this year. He writes, Trump ventured boldly three times and 381 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: one big for the United States, three times, restoring American 382 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: deterrence along the way. Rarely do we see such a 383 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: stark choice presented to a president, a fork in his 384 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,479 Speaker 1: personal road as far as his history is concerned, and 385 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: very much a fork in America's future. Will Trump do 386 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: it again with a ran? We will wait and see, 387 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: but I hope he does. We'll be back. 388 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 4: We gather here today as members of a historic alliance, 389 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 4: an alliance that saved and changed the world. You know, 390 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 4: when this conference began in nineteen sixty three, it was 391 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 4: in a nation, actually it was on a continent. It 392 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 4: was divided against itself. The line between communism and freedom 393 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 4: ran through the heart of Germany. The first barb fences 394 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 4: of the Berlin Wall had gone up just two years prior, 395 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 4: and just months before that first conference. Before our predecessors 396 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 4: first met here here in Munich, the Cuban missile crisis 397 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 4: had brought the world to the brink of nuclear destruction. 398 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 4: Even as World War Two still burned fresh in the 399 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 4: memory of Americans and Europeans alike, we found ourselves staring 400 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 4: down the barrel of a new global catastrophe, one with 401 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 4: the potential for a new kind of destruction, more apocalyptic 402 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 4: and final than anything before in the history of mankind. 403 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 4: The time of that first gathering, Soviet communism was on 404 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 4: the march. Thousands of years of Western civilization hung in 405 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 4: the balance. At that time, victory was far from certain, 406 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 4: but we were driven by a common purpose. We were 407 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 4: unified not just by what we were fighting against. We 408 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,479 Speaker 4: were unified but what we were fighting for. And together, 409 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 4: Europe and America prevailed, and a continent was rebuilt. 410 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 2: People prospered. 411 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 4: In time, the East and West blocks were reunited, a 412 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 4: civilization was once again made whole. That infamous wall that 413 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 4: had cleaned this nation into two came down, and with 414 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 4: it an evil empire, and the East and West became 415 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 4: one again. But the euphoria of this triumph led us 416 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 4: to a dangerous delusion that we had entered quote the 417 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 4: end of history, that every nation would now be a 418 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 4: liberal democracy, that the ties formed by trade and by 419 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 4: commerce alone would now replace nationhood, That the rules based 420 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 4: global order, an overused term, would now replace the national interests, 421 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 4: and that we would now live in a world without borders, 422 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 4: where everyone became a citizen of the world. 423 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 2: This was a foolish idea. 424 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: Let's start right there for a sec I mean, it's 425 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: a delusion. This idea of globalism, this idea of just 426 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: open free trade, trade and commerce would replace nationalism. It's 427 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: an absolute delusion. The fact that Marco Rubio gets this, 428 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm sure he had a part 429 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: in writing this speech. Maybe he wrote this speech. He's 430 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: obviously have speech writers, but I'd imagine that he had 431 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 1: a lot of input in this speech. This is a 432 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: man that gets it. This is a man that understands 433 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: the greatness and the exceptionalism of the United States of America, 434 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: but also also of Europe and Western civilization and how 435 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: we're losing that this speech is so important, and the 436 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 1: way he says the tone, you could already see the room. 437 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: The room is standing on pins and needles, or sitting 438 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: on pins and needles. However the phrase goes. You saw 439 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: one of the men in the beginning of the video, 440 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: I mean, when Marco Rubio was like a minute in, 441 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: he's looking to his left, looking to his right, because 442 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 1: Marco Rubio has their attention. Let's go on with this video. 443 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Secretary of State Marco Rubio in 444 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: his Munich with his speech of Munich, Germany. 445 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 4: That ignored both human nature and it ignored the lessons 446 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 4: of over five thousand years of recorded human history, and 447 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 4: it has cost us dearly. In this delusion, we embraced 448 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 4: a dogmatic vision of free and unfettered trade, even as 449 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 4: some nations protected their economies and subsidized their companies to 450 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 4: systematically undercut hours. 451 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 2: Shuttering our plants. 452 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 4: Was resulting in large parts of our societies being de industrialized, 453 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 4: shipping millions of working in middle class jobs overseas, and 454 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 4: handing control of our critical supply chains to both adversaries 455 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 4: and rivals. We increasingly outsourced our sovereignty to international institutions, 456 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 4: while many nations invested in massive welfare states at the 457 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 4: cost of maintaining the ability to defend themselves. This even 458 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 4: as other countries have invested in the most rapid military 459 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 4: build up in all of human history and have not 460 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 4: hesitated to use hard power to pursue their own interests. 461 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 2: To appease a climate. 462 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 4: Cult, we have imposed energy policies on ourselves that are 463 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:16,479 Speaker 4: impoverishing our people, even as our competitors exploit oil and 464 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 4: coal and natural gas and anything else not just to 465 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 4: power their economies, but to use as leverage against our 466 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 4: own and in a pursuit of a world without borders, 467 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 4: we opened our doors to an unprecedented wave of mass 468 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 4: migration that threatens the cohesion of our societies, the continuity 469 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 4: of our culture, and the future of our people. 470 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 2: We made these mistakes. 471 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 4: Together, and now together, we owe it to our people 472 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 4: to face those facts and to move forward to rebuild. 473 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 4: Under President Trump, the United States of America will once 474 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 4: again take on the task of renewal and restoration, driven 475 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 4: by a vision of a future as proud, as sovereign, 476 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 4: and as vital as our civilizations passed. 477 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 2: And while we are. 478 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 4: Prepared, if necessary, to do this alone, it is our preference, 479 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 4: and it is our hope, to do this together with you, 480 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 4: our friends here in Europe. For the United States and Europe, 481 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 4: we belonged together. 482 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 2: America was found to two hundred and. 483 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 4: Fifty years ago, but the roots began here on this 484 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 4: continent long before the men who settled and built the 485 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 4: nation of my birth arrived on our shores, carrying the 486 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 4: memories and the traditions and the Christian faith of their 487 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 4: ancestors as a sacred inheritance, an unbreakable link between the 488 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 4: old world and the new We are part of one civilization, 489 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 4: Western civilization. We are bound to one another by the 490 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 4: deepest bonds that nations could share, forged by centuries of 491 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 4: shared history, christian in faith, culture, heritage, language, ancestry, and 492 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 4: the sacrifices our forefathers made together for the common civilization 493 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 4: to which we have fallen heir. And so this is 494 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 4: why we Americans may sometimes come off as a little 495 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 4: direct and urgent in our council. This is why President 496 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 4: Trump demands seriousness and reciprocity from our friends here in Europe. 497 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 4: The reason why, my friends, is because we care deeply. 498 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 4: We care deeply about your future and ours, and if 499 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 4: at times we disagree, our disagreements come from our profound 500 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 4: sense of concern about a Europe with which we are connected, 501 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 4: not just economically, not just militarily. We are connected spiritually, 502 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 4: and we are connected culturally. We want Europe to be strong. 503 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 4: We believe that Europe must survive because the two great 504 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 4: Wars of the last century served for us as history's 505 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 4: constant reminder that ultimately our destiny is and will always 506 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 4: be intertwined with yours. Because we know, because we know 507 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 4: that the fate of Europe will never be irrelevant to 508 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 4: our own. 509 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: Let's pause it there for a sec while they're applauding, 510 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: we are connected, we are connected spiritually. Who who says 511 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: that you don't hear that anymore? Europe has lost their way, 512 00:31:53,040 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: Europe has become largely an atheistic continent, and yet you 513 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: have foreigners flooding in, mostly Islamic foreigners flooding in, and 514 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: they're growing in number, they're growing in influence. I love 515 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: this speech. I love the way that he appealed to 516 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: them as our friends. I love the way that he 517 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: took on the you know, the the climate cult. I'll 518 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: get into that a little later. With this endangerment finding 519 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: that the Trump administration has wiped out that it's going 520 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: to be absolutely beneficial to you guys, the delusion, the 521 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: delusion of being citizens of the world, we ship jobs overseas. 522 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: But he's also he's calling them friends. He's appealing to guys. 523 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: We are we're connected spiritually, we're connected culturally. He's appealing 524 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: to them, and it's working. I think their hearts are melting. 525 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: I hope they listen to this speech more. Let's let's 526 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: let's play. Let's start back up with markover you Okay, 527 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: well just one minute before the break, will we'll shut 528 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: it down at the break and then continue afterwards. So 529 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: let's roll. 530 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 4: National security, which this conference is largely about, is not 531 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 4: merely a series of technical questions. How much we spend 532 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 4: on defense or where how we deploy it. These are 533 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 4: important questions, they are, but they are not the fundamental one. 534 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 4: The fundamental question we must answer at the outset is 535 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 4: what exactly are we defending? Because armies do not fight 536 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 4: for abstractions. Armies fight for a people. Armies fight for 537 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 4: a nation. Armies fight for a way of life. And 538 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 4: that is what we are defending. A great civilization that 539 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 4: has every reason to be proud of its history, confident 540 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 4: of its future, and aims to always be the master 541 00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 4: of its own economic and political destiny. It was here 542 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 4: in Europe were the ideas that planted the seeds of 543 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 4: liberty that changed the world were born. It was here 544 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 4: in Europe where the world which gave the world the 545 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 4: rule of law, the universities, and the scientific revolution calls it. 546 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: There's pause it there more with Marco Rubio after the break. Okay, 547 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,479 Speaker 1: welcome back to the program. If you were joining me live, 548 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: you were able to hear me kind of going off 549 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: in between in between segments here, and you know, Gay 550 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: whispered in my ear, and I kind of felt the same, 551 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: like this is something that should be on there, and 552 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna do the whole entire runt. 553 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: In fact, I don't remember it all, but I did 554 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: speak of there's there's three people that I really love 555 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: that could possibly be the next president in my mind 556 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: of the United States of America, or that would be 557 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: good candidates in the primary, and that is JD. Vans. Obviously, 558 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 1: that is Marco Rubio, who said he would not run 559 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: against JD. Vans. I think that's a mistake. And Governor 560 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: run DeSantis. But you look at all of these people, 561 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: and one thing I didn't finishing during the break, and 562 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: please like, share and subscribe to this podcast, The Carl 563 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: Jackson Show, wherever you go to get your podcasts, all 564 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 1: thing social media at Carl Jackson Show, At the Carl 565 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: Jackson Show. We'll go back to the speech momentarily, but 566 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: I look at all of these guys and JD. Vance 567 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: is one of the best communicators that I've seen in politics, 568 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: especially off of his feet. Marco Rubio is one of 569 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: the most, if not the most next to Reagan inspiring 570 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 1: speaker I've ever seen in politics. And then you have 571 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 1: President Trump, one of the most brilliant tacticianers, and you 572 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: have Governor DeSantis, one of the most brilliant tacticianers. In 573 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: my opinion, Obviously, President Trump can't run again. I don't 574 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 1: think Governor DeSantis has the speaking skills of a Marco Rubio. 575 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: I don't think he communicates as well off of his 576 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: feet as a JD. Vance. But I frankly believe he's 577 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: probably the closest to Trump, perhaps even more conservative than Trump. 578 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: But I look at Marco Rubio and honestly, this guy, 579 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 1: this guy's astonishing me. He was made for Secretary of State. 580 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: This is absolutely inspiring, and I believe it's probably melting 581 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,959 Speaker 1: the tension. President Trump is a bull in a china shop. 582 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: We all know that. And now Marco Rubio comes. Guys, 583 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: it's almost like the man is still in velvet. I 584 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 1: read a book about this years ago. Somebody gave me 585 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: this book because about Jesus and how basically Jesus uses 586 00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: in a sense and I'm paraphrasing here correction and or punishment, 587 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 1: But he also has that loving, that loving way about him, 588 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: those loving arms wrapped around you, where he's correcting you 589 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,919 Speaker 1: in order to shape you, in order to build you, 590 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: because because he loves you. And this is the feeling 591 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 1: that you're getting with Marco Rubio as he's explaining President 592 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: Trump's policy. Man, I tell you, I'm just inspired by 593 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,359 Speaker 1: this piece. There's times where I don't want to watch 594 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: a lot of video. I don't want to you know, 595 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 1: I just want to talk. I want to talk about politics. 596 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you. This is one of 597 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 1: those times I'm actually excited to listen. Let's continue with 598 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 1: Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Munich Security Conference. 599 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 2: Scientific Revolution. 600 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 4: It was this continent that produced the genius of Mozart 601 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 4: and Beethoven, of Dante and Shakespeare, of Michaelangelo and da Vinci, 602 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 4: of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. And this is 603 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 4: the place were the vaulted ceilings of the Systeine Chapel 604 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 4: and the towering spires of the Great Cathedral Colone. They 605 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 4: testify not just to the greatness of our past or 606 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 4: to a faith in God that inspired these marvels. They 607 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 4: foreshadow the wonders that await us in our future. But 608 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,720 Speaker 4: only if we are unapologetic in our heritage and proud 609 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 4: of this common inheritance, can we together begin the work 610 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,720 Speaker 4: of envisioning and shaping our economic and our political future. 611 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 4: The industrialization was not inevitable. It was a conscious policy choice, 612 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 4: a decade long economic undertaking that stripped our nations of 613 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 4: their wealth, of their productive capacity, and of their independence 614 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 4: and the loss of our supply chain. Sovereignty was not 615 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 4: a function of a prosperous and healthy system of global trade. 616 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 2: It was foolish. 617 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 4: It was a foolish but voluntary transformation of our economy 618 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 4: that left us dependent on others for our needs and 619 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 4: dangerously vulnerable to crisis. Mass migration was not is some 620 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 4: fringe concern of little consequence. It was and continues to be, 621 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 4: a crisis which is transforming and destabilizing societies all across 622 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 4: the West. Together, we can reindustrialize our economies and rebuild 623 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 4: our capacity to defend our people. But the work of 624 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 4: this new alliance should not be focused just on military 625 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 4: cooperation and reclaiming the industries of the past. It should 626 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 4: also be focused on together advancing our mutual interests and 627 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 4: new frontiers, unshackling our ingenuity, our creativity, and the dynamic 628 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 4: spirit to build a new Western century commercial space travel 629 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 4: and cutting edge artificial intelligence, industrial automation and flex manufacturing, 630 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 4: creating a Western supply chain for critical minerals not vulnerable 631 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 4: to extortion from other powers, and a unified effort to 632 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 4: compete for market share in the economies of the global South. Together, 633 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,240 Speaker 4: we cannot only take back control of our own industries 634 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 4: and supply chains. We can prosper in the areas that 635 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,480 Speaker 4: will define the twenty first century, but we must also 636 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:19,960 Speaker 4: gain control of our national borders, controlling who and how 637 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,360 Speaker 4: many people enter our countries. This is not an expression 638 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 4: of xenophobia, It is not hate. It is a fundamental 639 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 4: act of national sovereignty, and the failure to do so 640 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 4: is not just an abdication of our. 641 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,320 Speaker 2: Most basic duties owe to our people. 642 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 4: It is an urgent threat to the fabric of our 643 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:44,720 Speaker 4: societies and the survival of our civilization itself. And finally, 644 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,399 Speaker 4: we can no longer place the so called global order 645 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 4: above the vital interests of our people and our nations. 646 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 4: We do not need to abandon the system of international 647 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 4: cooperation we authored. We don't need to dismantle the global 648 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 4: institutions of the old order that together we built. But 649 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:08,280 Speaker 4: these must be reformed, These must be rebuilt. For example, 650 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 4: the United Nations still has tremendous potential to be a 651 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 4: tool for good in the world, but we cannot ignore 652 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 4: that today on the most pressing matters before us, it 653 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 4: has no answers and has played virtually no role. 654 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 2: It could not solve the war in Gaza. 655 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 4: Instead, it was American leadership that freed captives from barbarians 656 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 4: and brought about a fragile truce. 657 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 2: It has not solved the war in Ukraine. 658 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 4: It took American leadership, in partnership with many of the 659 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 4: countries here today, just to bring the two sides to 660 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 4: the table in search of a. 661 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 2: Still elusive piece. It was powerless to. 662 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 4: Constrain the nuclear program of radical Sheiah clerics in Tehran 663 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,319 Speaker 4: that required fourteen bombs dropped with precision from American B 664 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 4: two bombers, And it was unable to address the threat 665 00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:00,320 Speaker 4: to our security from a narco terrorist dictator in Venezuela. Instead, 666 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 4: it took American special forces to bring this fugitive to justice. 667 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 4: In a perfect world, all of these problems and more 668 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 4: would be solved by diplomats and strongly worded resolutions. 669 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 2: But we do not live. 670 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 4: In a perfect world, and we cannot continue to allow 671 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,320 Speaker 4: those who blatantly and openly threaten our citizens and endanger 672 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 4: our global stability to shield themselves behind abstractions of international 673 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 4: law which they themselves routinely violate. This is the path 674 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 4: that President Trump and the United States has embarked upon. 675 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 4: It is the path we ask you here. 676 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 2: In Europe to join us on. 677 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 4: It is a path we have walked together before and 678 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 4: hope to walk together again. For five centuries before the 679 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 4: end of the Second World War, the West had been 680 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 4: expanding its missionaries, its pilgrims, it's soldiers, its explorers, pouring 681 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:58,320 Speaker 4: out from its shores to cross oceans, settle new continents, 682 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 4: build vast empire extending out across the globe. But in 683 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 4: nineteen forty five, for the first time since the age 684 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 4: of Columbus, it was contracting. Europe was in ruins, half 685 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 4: of it lived behind an iron curtain, and the rest 686 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,240 Speaker 4: looked like it would soon follow the great Western empires 687 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 4: that entered into terminal decline, accelerated by godless communist revolutions 688 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 4: and by anti colonial uprisings that would transform the world 689 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,760 Speaker 4: and drape the red hammer and sickle across vast swaths 690 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 4: of the map in the years to come. Against that backdrop, then, 691 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,919 Speaker 4: as now, many came to believe that the West's age 692 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,799 Speaker 4: of dominance had come to an end, and that our 693 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 4: future was destined to be a faint and feeble echo 694 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:57,280 Speaker 4: of our past. But together our predecessors recognized that decline 695 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 4: was a choice, and it was a choice refused to make. 696 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 2: This is what we did. 697 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 4: Together once before, and this is what President Trump and 698 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:07,959 Speaker 4: the United States. 699 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 2: Want to do again now, together with you. 700 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,720 Speaker 4: And this is why we do not want our allies 701 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 4: to be weak, because that makes us weaker. We want 702 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 4: allies who can defend themselves so that no adversary will 703 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 4: ever be tempted to test our collective strength. This is 704 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 4: why we do not want our allies to be shackled 705 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,839 Speaker 4: by guilt and shame. We want allies who are proud 706 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 4: of their culture and of their heritage, who understand that 707 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,919 Speaker 4: we are heirs to the same great and noble civilization, 708 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 4: and who, together with us. 709 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 2: Are willing and able to defend it. 710 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 4: And this is why we do not want allies to 711 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 4: rationalize the broken status quo, rather than reckon with what. 712 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 2: Is what is necessary to fix it. 713 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 4: For we in America have no interest in being polite 714 00:44:56,200 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 4: and orderly caretakers of the West's managed decline. We do 715 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 4: not seek to separate, but to revitalize an old friendship 716 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 4: and renew the greatest civilization in human history. What we 717 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:11,800 Speaker 4: want is a reinvigorated alliance. 718 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: Let's let's let's let's pause it there. I thought we 719 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 1: would finish up before the break, but we don't have 720 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 1: enough time. We'll wrap it up on the other side. 721 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 1: This is the Carl Jackson Show. 722 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 4: That recognizes that what has ailed our societies is not 723 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:34,319 Speaker 4: just a set of bad policies, but a malaise of 724 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 4: hopelessness and complacency. An alliance is what The alliance that 725 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 4: we want is one that is not paralyzed into an 726 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 4: action by fear, fear of climate change, fear of war, 727 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,760 Speaker 4: fear of technology. Instead, we want an alliance that boldly 728 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 4: races into the future, and the only fear we have 729 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 4: is the fear of the shame of not leaving our 730 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:57,720 Speaker 4: nations prouder, stronger, and wealthier for our children. 731 00:45:58,600 --> 00:45:59,760 Speaker 2: An alliance ready. 732 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,840 Speaker 4: To defend our people, to safeguard our interests and to 733 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,280 Speaker 4: preserve the freedom of action that allows us to shape 734 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 4: our own destiny. 735 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 2: Not one that exists to operate. 736 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 4: A global welfare state and atone for the purported sins 737 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 4: of past generations. 738 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 2: An alliance that. 739 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 4: Does not allow its power to be outsourced, constrained, or 740 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 4: subordinated to systems beyond its control. One that does not 741 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 4: depend on others for the critical necessities of. 742 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 2: Its national life. 743 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 4: And one that does not maintain the polite pretense that 744 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 4: our way of life is just one among many, and 745 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 4: that ask for permission before it acts. And above all, 746 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 4: an alliance based on the recognition that we the West 747 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 4: have inherited together. 748 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 2: What we have inherited. 749 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 4: Together is something that is unique and distinctive and irreplaceable, 750 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 4: because this, after all, is the very foundation of the 751 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 4: Transatlantic bond. Acting together in this way we will not 752 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 4: just help cover a sane foreign policy. It will restore 753 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,240 Speaker 4: to us a clear sense of ourselves. It will restory 754 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 4: place in the world, and in so doing, it will 755 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 4: rebuke and deter the forces of civilizational erasure that today 756 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 4: benis menace both America and Europe alike. So, in a 757 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:24,879 Speaker 4: time of headlines heralding the end of the Transatlantic era. 758 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 4: Let it be known and clear to all that this 759 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 4: is neither our goal nor our wish, Because for US Americans, 760 00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,880 Speaker 4: our home may be in the Western Hemisphere, but we 761 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 4: will always be a child of Europe. Our story began 762 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 4: with an Italian explorer whose adventure into the great Unknown 763 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 4: to discover a new world brought Christianity to the Americas 764 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 4: and became the legend that defined the imagination of our 765 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 4: pioneer nation. Our first colonies were built by English settlers, 766 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,240 Speaker 4: to whom we owe not just the language we speak, 767 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 4: but the whole of our political and legal system. Our 768 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 4: frontiers were shaped by Scott's Irish, that proud hardy clan 769 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:22,880 Speaker 4: from the hills of Ulster, that gave us Davy Crockett 770 00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 4: and Mark Twain and Teddy Roosevelt and Neil Armstrong. Our 771 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 4: great Midwestern heartland was built by German farmers and craftsmen 772 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 4: who transformed empty planes into a global agricultural powerhouse and, 773 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 4: by the way, dramatically upgraded the quality of American beer. 774 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:48,720 Speaker 4: Our expansion into the interior followed the footsteps of French 775 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 4: fur traders and explorers, whose names, by the way, still 776 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 4: adorned the street signs and towns names all across the 777 00:48:54,880 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 4: Mississippi Valley. Our horses, our ranches, our rodeos, the the 778 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:04,360 Speaker 4: entire romance of the cowboy archetype that became synonymous with 779 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:09,239 Speaker 4: the American West. These were born in Spain, and our 780 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 4: largest and most iconic city was named New Amsterdam before 781 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 4: it was named New York. 782 00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 2: And you know that in the year that. 783 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:22,439 Speaker 4: My country was found in, Lorenzo and Catalina Geraldi lived 784 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 4: in cassal Montferrato in the Kingdom of Piedmont, Sardinia, and 785 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 4: Jose and Manuel Arena lived in Sevilla, Spain. I don't 786 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:34,720 Speaker 4: know what of anything they knew about the thirteen colonies 787 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 4: which have gained their independence from the British Empire. 788 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 2: But here's what I'm certain of. 789 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:43,320 Speaker 4: They could have never imagined that two hundred and fifty 790 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:47,399 Speaker 4: years later, one of their direct descendants would be back 791 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:51,120 Speaker 4: here today on this continent as the chief diplomat of 792 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 4: that infant nation. And yet here I am reminded by 793 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:59,959 Speaker 4: my own story that both are histories, and our faith 794 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 4: will always be linked together. We rebuilt the shattered continent 795 00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 4: and the wake of two devastating world wars when we 796 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,839 Speaker 4: found ourselves divided once again by the Iron Curtain. The 797 00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 4: Free West linked arms with the courageous Dissonance, struggling against 798 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 4: tyranny in the East to defeat Soviet Communism. We have 799 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:25,200 Speaker 4: fought against each other, then reconciled, then fought, then reconciled again, 800 00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 4: and we have bled and died side by side on 801 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 4: battlefields from Capjong to Kendar. And I'm here today to 802 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:41,319 Speaker 4: leave it clear that America is charting the path for 803 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 4: a new century of prosperity, and that once again we 804 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 4: want to do it together with you, our cherished allies, 805 00:50:50,160 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 4: and our oldest friends. We want to do it together 806 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,200 Speaker 4: with you, with a Europe that it's proud of its 807 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,799 Speaker 4: heritage and of its history, With a Europe that has 808 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,439 Speaker 4: the spirit of creation and liberty that sent ships out 809 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 4: into uncharted seas and birth our civilization. With a Europe 810 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 4: that has the means to defend itself and the will 811 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:27,280 Speaker 4: to survive. We should be proud of what we achieved 812 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 4: together in the last century. But now we must confront 813 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 4: and embrace the opportunities of a new one. Because yesterday 814 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:44,040 Speaker 4: is over, the future is inevitable, and our destiny together 815 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 4: awaits Thank. 816 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: You, here, here, here, here is is that why they 817 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 1: hear here? I mean literally that's I want to stand 818 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 1: up in applause to die. I mean that was so inspiring. Again, 819 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 1: speeches aren't necessarily aren't necessarily policy. But guys, if we 820 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:07,719 Speaker 1: don't want to get caught up in entangling wars, it 821 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 1: is incumbent upon our natal allies to be strong again, 822 00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,640 Speaker 1: to not be taken over from within with all of 823 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 1: these foreigners that are coming into their countries and changing 824 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:24,320 Speaker 1: the culture, changing the way people, changing the way people vote. 825 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,320 Speaker 1: And there's parts of Europe, and forgive me, I forget 826 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: exactly where, but I know there's a part in Europe 827 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:32,359 Speaker 1: where literally you have so many Muslims that have come 828 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,160 Speaker 1: into parts of Europe where they're saying, listen, we don't 829 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 1: want your dogs out walking in the streets. We don't 830 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 1: want you walking your dogs. And you have Europeans that 831 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 1: are acquiescing to this nonsense because they don't like dogs. 832 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? You're in my country. This is 833 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 1: how these people in these third world countries take over. 834 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:02,719 Speaker 1: What are you doing Europe? See it's almost like it's 835 00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:06,760 Speaker 1: almost like the United States of America is picking Europe 836 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 1: up by their bootstraps or perhaps by their their collars, 837 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:14,440 Speaker 1: and saying, listen, you can do this, you can be 838 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:20,399 Speaker 1: strong again. Remember who you are. That's what I loved 839 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: about that speech. I sometimes, you know, the saying you 840 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: catch you catch more flies with honey than you do 841 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,919 Speaker 1: with vinegar. I feel like that's what they were going 842 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:34,799 Speaker 1: for there the Trump administration. With Rubio, this isn't a 843 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:39,839 Speaker 1: bullet This isn't firing more bullets. This is you want 844 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 1: to bring an end too the Russia Ukraine war than Europe, 845 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: our NATO allies in Europe, I should say, have to 846 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: care more about ending that war than we do. They've 847 00:53:56,719 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 1: got to stop buying oil from Vladimir Putin, scolding him 848 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:08,840 Speaker 1: yet enriching him, telling him to stop fighting against Ukraine, 849 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 1: but funding the war against Ukraine. I don't I don't 850 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: want to have to fight Europe's wars if they're not 851 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 1: willing to defend themselves. Rubio gave them credit for bringing 852 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:28,880 Speaker 1: Christianity to America. They've abandoned God in so many facets. 853 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 1: He thanked them for the legal system that we have 854 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 1: greatest legal system in the world. It's not perfect, still 855 00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 1: the best in the world. He talked about the horses, 856 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 1: ranches and rodeos that were born in Spain, that that 857 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 1: that heritage, that culture. In AOC earlier, I played the video. 858 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: We were going to play a compilation, but I don't 859 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 1: have time for it, and AOC knocked that. Oh, I 860 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:58,239 Speaker 1: think the what did she say? Uh, Mexico might have 861 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 1: something to to to to say about that they're Latina. 862 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 1: They derived from Spain, that culture, the horses, the ranches, 863 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:12,480 Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff that's a derivative of Spain, 864 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 1: that derived from Spain. Spain. He encouraged them to be 865 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: proud of their heritage, to be proud of their history. 866 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 1: And that's what they're throwing away. It's just a shame 867 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 1: that was That was one of the better speeches. I 868 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,880 Speaker 1: hope that some of these European people that have influence, 869 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: that have power will walk away. 870 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 3: Uh. 871 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:36,960 Speaker 1: And I just pray to God that that speech will 872 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 1: hit them in a way that perhaps no speech ever 873 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: has or has it in a long time. And I 874 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: hope that europe will start coming to their senses because 875 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 1: we don't want our allies to fall again. Marc Rubio 876 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: said it said it best. When they're weak, we're weaker. Two, 877 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:57,239 Speaker 1: we're weaker. Two. It's almost like Trump is getting the 878 00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: world in order without to the best of his ability, 879 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 1: without firing shots. And one of the ways to do 880 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 1: that is to make sure that our NATO allies are strong. 881 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:10,960 Speaker 1: Such an inspirational speech by Marco Rubio, perhaps the best 882 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 1: of his career. All Right, this is a Carl Jackson show. 883 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 1: We'll be back.
