1 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,640 Speaker 1: I'm Josh Hammer, and this is the Josh Hammer Show. 2 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 1: So we're back here home in Florida after our trip 3 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: to Texas for seapak. There are no shortage of things 4 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 1: happening in the news of the USN and has taken 5 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 1: a crucial vote to try to refund most of the 6 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security, including TSA. I've actually now had 7 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 1: a travel light, so i can talk a little bit 8 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 1: about the chaos or lack thereof actually when it comes 9 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: to America's airports. Meanwhile, there's all sorts of developments when 10 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: it comes to the war in Iran. Lots of noise, 11 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 1: lots of mixed signals. This is war winding down? Is 12 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 1: President Trump going to see this operation through? Are the 13 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: President and the Vice President on the same page? Are 14 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,279 Speaker 1: the United States and Israel on the same page. There's 15 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 1: a ton of questions there when it comes to Iran. Meanwhile, 16 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: the International Olympic Committee has made a bolt and courageous 17 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: decision when it comes to the ever thorny issue of transgenderism, 18 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: and we have the death of a horrible human being, 19 00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: Kermit Godsnew, the infamous lightsterm abortionists in prison, and lots 20 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: to get to on today's show, But for now we 21 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: begin with this. I mentioned that I flew back from Texas. 22 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: I was there in the Dallasport Worth area to speak 23 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: at Sea Pack. Sea Pack has long been one of 24 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: the premier conservative conferences in America. In recent years it 25 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 1: was at least equal perhaps past I think most would 26 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: argue by Turning Point to USA. This was an interesting 27 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: opportunity potentially for Seapack to try to get back on 28 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: relatively equal footing with Turning Point USA, especially in the 29 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: aftermath of the horrific assassination of my late friend Charlie Kirk. 30 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: And I was only in town for a day, so 31 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: I can't give you the the full conference rundown. What 32 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: I can tell you is that you sensed a lot 33 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: of the usual enthusiasm, a lot of the folks who 34 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: were dressed up in all the mega gear and the red, 35 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: white and blue, and it's Texas, so the cowboy hats 36 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: and the cowboy boots and a lot of the paraphernalia there. 37 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: It did feel a little duller, for sure than some 38 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: of the Sea Packs that I have spoken at in 39 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: a in prior years. Query why that might be so. 40 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: A lot of folks saying, and this is the kind 41 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: of the corporate media narrative is oh, Seapack is slower 42 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: conservatives or not motivated non enthus because of this so 43 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: called maga civil war that's going on and no one 44 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: wants to show up for it. I don't actually buy 45 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: that for a second. I don't buy that for a 46 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: second for a whole host of reasons, one of which 47 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: is the actual substantive issue that there actually really is 48 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: not as much of a civil war as people make 49 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: it out too big. We cover this on the show 50 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 1: all the time. The polling is is very very clear 51 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: on this, as I cited in my Seapack speech yesterday, 52 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: which we'll get to here in just a moment. There 53 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: was a recent poll that came out just about a 54 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: week ago that showed that, in a straight up who 55 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: do you trust more when it comes to foreign policy, frankly, 56 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: in all matters, do you trust Donald Trump and his 57 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: judgment more or do you trust Tucker Carlson and Megan 58 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: Kelly Moore. That poll from Jail Partners last week showed 59 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: that likely Republican voters trust Trump over Carlson and Kelly 60 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: by an eighty three to six percent margin. So this 61 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: notion that there was a full fledged Maga civil war 62 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 1: is just simply not born out by the data, and 63 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: we are definitely statistical data driven people here on the show. Now, 64 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: the actual speaker line with Seapack has definitely been something 65 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: of a mixed back prior to going there on stage. 66 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: Yes to say, I peeked into the speaker's lounge and 67 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe that. Not only did I see the 68 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: exegraral Matt Gates, who is just a truly loathsome human 69 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: being who is just playing the Jew hatred, subversive fifth 70 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: Column op card purely for algorithms and purely for clips, 71 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: but at his side was a total low life who's 72 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: really not worth much more time, but the name of 73 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: vish Bura, his longtime right hand man and one of 74 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: his foreign producers at one American news network who was 75 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: promptly fired for tweeting out a cartoon literally out of 76 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: a nineteen thirties durstorm Er Nazis newspaper comparing Jews to cockroaches. 77 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: And he was right there standing in standing in the 78 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: speakers lounge at Seapack. So disgusting stuff, and I truly 79 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: hope that Seapack cleans up their speaker lineup a little 80 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: bit more in future conferences, much as I hope that 81 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: Turning Point USA and all of these conferences end up 82 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: doing that. And folks, here is the key point I 83 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: mentioned Matt Gates already. Matt Gates got a shout out 84 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: in my speech. In Matt Gates's own speech, he talked 85 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: about how we're not here to cancel anyone. It's a 86 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: lot of the same canned lines over and over again. 87 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: Tuck Carlson said the exact same thing at the Amfest conference, 88 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: the Turning Point conference out in Phoenix, Aarazona, last December, 89 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: in response to Ben Shapiro's conference opening speech, Tucker said 90 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: the same thing. Matt Gates said the same thing, how 91 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: these viewpoints are not going away. And the points, folks, 92 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: is this conservatism seeks to conserve. Our whole opening segment, 93 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: and yesterday's show was about this, how you seek to 94 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: conserve orders of reasoning and lodging principles that are all 95 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: downstream of those primary truths, those primary truths that undergird 96 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:54,799 Speaker 1: any order, any regime. And if you seek to conserve everything, 97 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: if you take this notion of no cancel culture, free speech, 98 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: absolutism to a it's logical conclusion. Then there's no cancelation. 99 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: So where does that end. Is Hassan Piker gonna get platformed? 100 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: Then at a concertive conference, after all, it will be 101 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: canceled culture to cancel Hassan Piker? Is Ilhan Omar going 102 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: to get platformed? 103 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: Oh? 104 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: How dare you crack down on free speech by telling 105 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: ilhan Omar that you can't speak at seatpacker turning points? 106 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: So you see where I'm going with this. It is 107 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: inherent in the very notion of conservatism that you actually 108 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: have to draw lines, because paradoxically, he who seeks to 109 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: conserve everything at once is not conserving anything at all. 110 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: You have to draw boundaries. You have to define what 111 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: you are and who you are, and just importingly, what 112 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: you are not and who you are not. Now, I 113 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: came out and tended very much to do this in 114 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: my speech. I only had eight minutes, and I intended 115 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: to take full use of those eight minutes there. So 116 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: I explained how President Trump and his administration are doing 117 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: quite well, how President Trump is excelling pretty much on 118 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: all objective cylinders as I can tell. 119 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: Could things be going a little better? 120 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: Here or there for sure. Obviously the war has spiked 121 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: gas prices. They're the economy cozy better. But overall border 122 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: crossings are at historic lows. The woke madrasses of the 123 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: Ivy League are being made to bend the knee, and 124 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is per of the Iran war. He is 125 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: now seeking to end the moles forty seven year forever 126 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,679 Speaker 1: war against the United States, where they have been waging 127 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: ever since they took over the US embassy in Tehran 128 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy nine. So things overall are going pretty well. 129 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: Marco Rubio has been an extraordinary Secretary of State. Pete 130 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: hag Seth has been a clarion voice in this war 131 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: and longer when it goes back to the narco terrorist 132 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: strikes when it comes to his perch at the Pentagon. However, 133 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: when you look outside of the administration, and to be clear, 134 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: there is a shadow war in the administration, we've discussed 135 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: that on the show as well. We believe that it 136 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: is centered around the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, 137 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: which is where Joe Kent just resigned from. There's a 138 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: viper's nest there at the office of the dn I. 139 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: But this shadow war is happening even more so outside 140 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: the administration. And this is a subversive effort to undermine 141 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 1: MAGA and frankly overall, to actually even graham that to 142 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: actually undermine the United States of America, because much of 143 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: what is currently being peddled in the name of MAGA 144 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: or the name of conservatism is actually really nothing like 145 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: that whatsoever. So I was bringing receipts. I was not 146 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: going to do this speech and just wing it. I prepared, 147 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: and I called up people who ought to be called out. 148 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: For instance, here was what I said in my speech 149 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: at Seapak about Tucker Carlson himself, soccer Carlson, who wrestled 150 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: the demon and seems to have lost the fight with 151 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: the demon. Recently hosted on his show a Chinese Communist 152 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: Party mouthpiece by the name of Jiong shwe Chin. On 153 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: the podcast, John proposed a new world order in which 154 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: the United States joins China, Russia, and Iran as quote 155 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,239 Speaker 1: unquote equal partners. If you think that sounds patently insane, 156 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: that's because it is. If you think that sounds indistinguishable 157 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: from the musings of Noam Chomsky, that's because it is. 158 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: But that didn't stop Carlson from affirming Jiong's Beijing approved 159 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: dystopia as the wisest possible advice and the only path 160 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: that preserves civilization. Of course, Carlson has also lauded Russia, 161 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: Maduro's Venezuela, and even Sharia law. You'd be hard pressed 162 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: to find a single anti American system or regime that 163 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: Carlson has not in fact praised. So you heard run 164 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: very loud booer there at the front of the room. 165 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: He was actually something of an outlier. This was definitely 166 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: a friendly and favorable room, which I was very happy 167 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: to see, and the feedback I got this beach was 168 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: overwhelming positive. But I didn't just focus on Tucker Carlson. 169 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: I focus as a little more broadly on another recent 170 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: theme of our show here, the Josh Hammer Show. But 171 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: how Donald Trump is now currently pulling a Michael Coroleoni, 172 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: let's say, and he is settling all the Maga faining business. 173 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: Here was that clip. Donald Trump is not a duke, 174 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: and he is now set up playing all the Maga 175 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: family business. So it's no wonder that Trump now calls 176 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: Carlson quote unquote not Maga. It's no wonder he has 177 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: labeled Kelly, who has been spiraling off into extreme juvenile vulgarity. 178 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: I've been talking about micro penises of late. He calls 179 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: her a quote jealous and angry human being with little sway, 180 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: and he's right on that. A new survey from Jail 181 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: Partners revealed the Republicans trust Donald Trump over Tucker Carlson 182 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: and Megan Kelly by whopping eighty three percent to six 183 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: percent margin. This is not a particularly close call. It 184 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: is not a coin flip. It is an overwhelming, crushing defeat. 185 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: So again, this was a speech that I delivered. Can 186 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: go ahead and watch the full thing over on YouTube 187 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: or elsewhere. Be published also as an essay at Front 188 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: Page magazine, probably sometime over this weekend. Now, these comments, 189 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 1: as we said earlier in the show, are going to 190 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: have to make their decisions when it comes to how 191 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: going to approach who they platform moving forward. This airing 192 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: all sides thing is ultimately unsustainable. You do ultimately have 193 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: to make decisions. 194 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 3: Take us back to. 195 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: Our examples earlier about Ilan Omar and Hassan Piker. It 196 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: is ludicrous to suggests that the pro life and the 197 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: pro abortion signs of the abortion rate should get equal 198 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: airtime at a sea pack or a turning point to 199 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: USA conference. And we can therefore just just say this 200 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: is free speech, the battle of ideas, the marketplace of ideas. No, 201 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: that's not how it works. If you are a conservative, 202 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: you stand for certain things. You stand for a Genesis 203 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: one twenty seven, the notion that man is made in 204 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: God's image and that human life therefore has a certain sanctity. 205 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: You stand for the biblical tradition. You stand for the 206 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: rule of law. You stand for the nation state insecure borders. 207 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: There are certain things that are non negotiable items that 208 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: you have to stand for. There is a total grifter 209 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: industrial complex that is out there. A lot of these grifters, frankly, 210 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: are making a lot of money. It is the eternal 211 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: siren song of what a friend of mine refers to 212 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: as the three c's clicks, cash, and clout. A lot 213 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: of these folks want that. They seem to want it. 214 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: Matt Keats is a good example. It seems to want 215 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: it very very badly. Megan Kelly another good example. That's 216 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: not what we're about here on this show. Who doesn't 217 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 1: want clicks? Everyone in this business wants clicks. But we 218 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: are more interested in other things like the truth, because, 219 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: to paraphrase the Gospel of Mark and the New Testament, ultimately, 220 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: what does it profit a man if he is ultimately 221 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: just going to who's his soul? 222 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 3: It is simply not worth it. 223 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: We stand for things, we stand for eternal things, and 224 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: that's what I spoke about a seapack. That's what I 225 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: hope to see from Seapack trimp one USA and the 226 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: entire movement going into this midterm election and for years 227 00:11:53,520 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: and years to come. A couple of other observations from 228 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: my trip to Texas. I had to say that is 229 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: my first time using the airport in about a month, 230 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: a total breeze, both in South Florida where I live 231 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: and in Dallas. For worth, I was actually quite scared 232 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: about the situation potentially at DFW Airport. DFW is the 233 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: home of American Airlines. It is a major, major international airport, 234 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: has one of the highest passenger traffic, easily top five 235 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 1: airport in America. It's always Atlanta O'Hare in Chicago, at DFW, 236 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: in Dallas, LAX JFK, these are always some of the 237 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: top airports America and absolute brief there was no line 238 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe it, honestly. I mean, maybe I just 239 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: got lucky. Same thing for it's worth here in South 240 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: Florida as well. So the dzday situation not affecting at 241 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: least the airports that I went to. I added, totally, 242 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: you still hear about these horrific wait times. I saw 243 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: some headline suggesting that Hartsfield Jackson Airport in Atlanta, which 244 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: is always just a total poop show of an airport. 245 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: I saw some headlines suggesting the security line was literally 246 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: winding out all the way to the parking lot, which 247 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: is just terrible and unfathomable if true. Is this because 248 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: of the ICE agents there on the ground? 249 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 3: Hard to say. 250 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 1: The ICE agents are actually really not at a lot 251 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: of airports. They're not at for Lauterrell Airports here in Florida. 252 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: I flew out of on Wednesday, so it's not necessarily 253 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: attributable to that. Will the Democrats end up actually caving 254 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: on this particular shutdown very hard to say. 255 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 2: So. 256 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: The USN actually did vote on Friday morning to end 257 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: this partial DHS shutdown. Now, they voted to fund most 258 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: of the problem plomand security, including TSA. Here's the catch. 259 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: The catch is that this bill that they passed did 260 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: not include all of the relevant funding, include all of 261 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: the relevant funding for ICE and customs in poor protection. 262 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: So they're basically trying to have their cake and eat 263 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: it too. Now there'll be some sort of compromise measure here. Again, 264 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: there's been these rumors that Donald trumpet will potentially try 265 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: to give Democrats a major win and agree to cut 266 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: future baseline funding when it comes to Ice to tune 267 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: and potentially up to five billion dollars in exchange were 268 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: opening up the rest of the government TSA. 269 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 3: I don't know. 270 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: It's very, very difficult to say in the interim though, 271 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: what we can say is that Democrats are continuing to 272 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: put ice in their crosshairs. And by putting ice in 273 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: their crosshairs, I mean actually quite literally and tragically they 274 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: are really at times putting ice in their crossair. So 275 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: the absolute lunatic source funded prosecutor out of Philadelphia, Larry Krasner. 276 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: Larry Krasner just the other day was threatening the ICE 277 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: agents who were being deployed by Tom Homan and now 278 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: Mark White Molin as the new Secretary of full mad 279 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: Security and the whole truministration. Larry Krasner was just blistering, 280 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: and not just blistering, excoriating, threatening the ICE agents who 281 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: were deployed there to the Philadelphia International Airport. So Larry 282 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: Krasner are saying the other day in Philadelphia, quote, this 283 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: is how it works. You commit crimes within the jurisdiction 284 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: that is a city in county Philadelphia, I will prosecute you. 285 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: That is how it works. Yes, I will put you 286 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: in handcuffs, and I will put you in a courtroom 287 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: if necessary. I will put you in a jail cell 288 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: if you decide to make the floor of this airport 289 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: or anything like that, what you did in the streets 290 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: of Minneapolis, which involved the criminal homicide of unarmed, innocent people. 291 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: We are not having that. 292 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 3: This disgusting stuff. 293 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: The notion going this partaking as a bat the january 294 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: feels like so long ago, the notion that Renee Good 295 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: was just an innocent, unarmed person there. Do you remember 296 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: that video that the video of the woman the car there, 297 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: she was going for the agent. They are obstructing an 298 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: active law enforcement operation. You can't do that and expect 299 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: that there are not going to be consequences. And when 300 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: you obstruct in a fashion which is already a crime. 301 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: By the way, you can't obstruct active investigations. You can 302 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: choose if you or a local police department not to 303 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: actively comply with a federal operation, if you were just 304 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: a local civilian. You can't just stick your body out 305 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: there and like literally obstruct there. 306 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 3: You can't do that. It's not allowed. 307 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: It is illegal. So you can't do that and then 308 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: take your vehicle and try to use it as a 309 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: weapon and notspact that. There will be consequences potentially, as 310 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: tragically will and I will say tragically Renee Good and 311 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: the other guy pretty found out in Minnesota. They found 312 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: out the hard way that these sort of actions, unfortunately, 313 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: do have consequences. Now, the very troubled governor of Minnesota, 314 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: Tim Walls, has been the headlines actually for some very 315 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: similar reasons, just continuing his slanderous, slanderous attacks on the 316 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: brave men and women of ICE, talking about how these 317 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: guys aren't doing a thing. It's just totally ludicrous. But 318 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and hear from the horse mouth. Here 319 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: is Tim Walls over on ms NOW talking about how 320 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: these ICE statment of the airport's are doing nothing and 321 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: ICE is just go ahead just why for yourself? 322 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 4: This is not normal. These guys aren't doing a damn thing. 323 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 4: They weren't qualified to be here in Minnesota. They're not 324 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 4: qualified to be at the airport, and they are dang 325 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 4: sure not qualified to be anywhere near a polling station. 326 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: Okay, So honestly I have no idea why he is. 327 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: They're not qualified. You can object to ICE on the 328 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: merrit as far as whether a qualify or not. There, 329 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: I mean, what is that supposed to mean? 330 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 3: Dude? 331 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: I mean, like, what point are you actually trying to make? 332 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: But the more important point is this, which is that 333 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: this anti ICE rhetoric from Tim Walls, from Larry Krasner, 334 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 1: from some of these other provocateurs is actually very dangerous. 335 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 1: It's really really dangerous. We previously compared the situation against 336 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: ICE to the Hamas propaganda martyrdom complex over in Gaza. 337 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: For years and years and years, the terrorist regime in 338 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: Gaza run by Hamas, the Suoni Islamist organization, this offtion 339 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 1: of the of the Muslim brotherhood. They have tried to 340 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: incentivize their people and encourage them to go be martyrs, 341 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: to try to die. Literally, they want them actually to die. 342 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: They want the body count in this case of the 343 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: Arabs and Gaza to go up. They want it as 344 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: part of their outrageous, cynical, diabolical propaganda war against Israel. 345 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: That infamously is why they set up shop and launch 346 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: their rockets and this and that. They're from schools and 347 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,239 Speaker 1: children's playgrounds and mosques and this and that. It's all 348 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: extremely well documented. So the analogy holds because what these 349 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 1: individuals want to do. Tim Walls was the best example, 350 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: and the rest of his idiot band in Minnesota Democrats, 351 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: Jacob Fry, Keith Ellison, all the rest of them there, 352 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: they were trying to incentivize their own people to be 353 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 1: anti Ice martyrs. This has lethal consequences. There are far 354 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: far too many headlines in this country at this point 355 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 1: in this second Trump term, far far too many when 356 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: it comes to acts of violence against immigration and forcement agents, 357 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: and not just immigration but also the US National Guard. 358 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: That was the horrific, horrific tragedy in the nation's capital 359 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving Eve, I'll being in that case, it was 360 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: from a quote unquote refugee from Afghanistan who never in 361 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: a million years should have been on the soil. The 362 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: bymesiration deeply derelict in letting that particular individual into this country. 363 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 1: But the point is, folks, that this anti ice rhetoric 364 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 1: is really really dangerous stuff, and I am just so 365 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 1: incredibly sick of it at this point, and I am 366 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 1: just as sick of the Democrats continuing to play politics 367 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 1: with our basic security. TSA is not the kind of 368 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: thing that ought to be simply negotiated with. Sure America 369 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: existed prior to the establishment of DHS and the TSA 370 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: there we. 371 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 3: Also had nine to eleven. 372 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: I mean, a lot of people complain about TSA and 373 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: it's not really my favorite agency either'd be honest with 374 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: you guy. A lot of them tem to have something 375 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 1: of a power trip going on there. But overall overall, 376 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: would you prefer that security in place? Yeah, I think 377 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: it probably would, given all of the incredible threats of 378 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: this country faces. Frankly, given all of the Fifth column 379 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: subversive actors, given the fact that dearborn Michigan is basically 380 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: just one giant has ballis cell at this point, Given 381 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: how much radical Fifth Column filth is now all throughout 382 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 1: this country, brought here by our own stupidity and our 383 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: own volition, much of it happening during the Bien Harris regime. 384 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 1: The eight million plus unvetted legal aliens, god knows how 385 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 1: many of whom which could potentially be grievous, ruinous, personal 386 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: or national security threats against the United States and its people. 387 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: There's this quote, and I can't quite recall if it's 388 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: an authentic or an apocryphal quote, but it's often attributed 389 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 1: to Thomas Jefferson and various other classical liberal thinkers in 390 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: the late eighteenth century, and it goes something along the 391 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: lines here in paraphrasing, that he who would trade away 392 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: a little liberty for some security ultimately deserves neither. It's 393 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: a very popular libertarian sentiment. Unfortunately it is bunk. It's garbage. 394 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: This is a very real trade off that very real 395 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: societies make on a day in, day out basis. I'm 396 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: not saying that you can't find a sweet way to 397 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 1: harmonize security and liberty, but where you have something that 398 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: is a good bang for your buck ro ROI security 399 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: improvement like TSA for God's Sake for instance, and the 400 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: infringement on liberty of what of walking through a meltacker, heck, 401 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: I got groped by the agent a DFWSA. 402 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 3: Do I like that? No, it stinks. 403 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 1: But was I like making a big fuss about it? No, 404 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: it's his job. And by the way, to the people 405 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: at DFW and for Layl I saw there, thank you 406 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: for doing your job while the Democrats are forced unim 407 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: his paycheck's theory. You're good patriots, and we the people 408 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: see that, and we the people respect that. There, but 409 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: the Chuck Schumer and Jaquem Jeffrey should get off the 410 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: freaking butt and get these airports funded and then bare 411 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: minimum guys do it before Holy Week starts this week 412 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: and Easter Sunday comes Sunday. What a mess to have 413 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: the airports all show done. A major theme of this 414 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: conference that I just spoke, and one of the major 415 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: areas of tension shimmering just beneath the surface is the 416 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: war in Iran. Don't get me wrong. The polls on 417 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: this again are consistent. All the posters show the Magro 418 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 1: Republicans and seapack is filled with nothing if not self 419 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: identified Macro Republicans. These days, they are pretty much in 420 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 1: unity in lockstep. The opinion polls consistently show that mac 421 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: Republicans have approval ratings for the war in Iran invariably 422 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: in the eighty plus percent range, usually in the seventy 423 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: five to eighty five percent, if not even slightly higher range. 424 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: So I'm not saying that this is an active civil 425 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: war or anything like that there. But but, but there is 426 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: an increasing amount of polling showing, as can be expected, 427 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 1: it's war's been going on now for basically a month, 428 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: a lot of polling and now showing that the American 429 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: people are starting overall to sour at least a little more. 430 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 3: Again, it's mixed. It really depends on the poll. 431 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 1: Some pole still show that there's a positive approval dispol 432 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: rating of President Trump there. But I did see some 433 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: recent poll that Trump's overall approval rating has slipped quite 434 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: a bit over the past month, and that foreign policy 435 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 1: in Iran are now near the top of the list 436 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: of issues that the American people say that he is 437 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: handling poorly. Again, there are some polls to the contrary. 438 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: I'm just noting what I perceive to be the broader trend, 439 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: and it's not exactly a wholly unsurprising trend, given the 440 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: fact that gas prices have risen on the national average 441 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: by about a dollar per gallon which is a lot, 442 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: and we should not pretend like it's not a lot. 443 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: It's absolutely a lot over the past month. So there's 444 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: a lot of noise, and there is a lot of 445 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: mixed signals as to what exactly is going to be 446 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: the endgame of this particular conflict. So on a Friday, 447 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: the Israelis threadned to escalatee expands their attacks on Iran. 448 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: And this happening around the same time that President Trump 449 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 1: is still giving some indication that he might want to 450 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 1: seek an off ramp. A lot of folks reporting to 451 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: Politico and various other belly publications that Trump is privately 452 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: asking his advisors how he can claim victory and get 453 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: out that he's starting to worry about the political costs 454 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: when it comes to the midterms. On the other hand, 455 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: again talk about mixed signals here. On the other hands, 456 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: Department of Defense officials, Pendinggon officials telling the Wall Street 457 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: Journal that the Pentagon is looking at sending up to 458 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: ten thousand additional troops to the Middle East. Ten thousand, 459 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: and by the way, these are potentially even ground troops, 460 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: So five thousand US Marines and thousand additional paratroopers from 461 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: the eighty second Airborne Division. The second Airborne Division is 462 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: the division that is required or has to have the 463 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: capability of deploying essentially anywhere around the world with a 464 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: twenty four hours heads up, which is pretty crazy. So 465 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: are they sending ten thousand more ground troops to the 466 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 1: Middle East or is Donald Trump looking for an off ramp. 467 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: There's also this other question when it comes to US 468 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: israelations and also Trump Vance relations. So Barack Revide, who 469 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 1: is now? He was one of the mouthpieces for the bidminstration. 470 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: Now he's become one of the mouthpieces over at Axios 471 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: for shall we say anti Trump or Trump suberversive leaks 472 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: from within the administration. I have my thoughts as to 473 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: where a lot of these leaks are coming from. I 474 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: think there are a lot of them are coming from 475 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: the aforementioned office of the Director of National Intelligence, and 476 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: I think that some probably are coming from the Vice 477 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: President's office as well. If I had to guess, A 478 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: lot of his stories seem to emanate from that office. 479 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: Is all I am merely noting here. So Barack Revide 480 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 1: noting or at least claiming that there was a very 481 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: tense conversation between Vice President Jade Vance and Prime Minister Netanyahu, 482 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: in which the Vice President Jadavance allegedly accused Neta Yakhu 483 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: of being too optimistic about the odds of getting regime 484 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: changed relatively quickly in Iran, starting the commencement of this 485 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: joint American Israeli operation. Now, what makes this story even 486 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 1: more interesting the same report rovert Axio as Barack Revide, 487 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: who again was a Biden administration mouthpiece and now is 488 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: a mouthpiece for seemingly anti Trump forces within the actual 489 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 1: broader administration. There Now, now Barack Revide is saying that 490 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:58,479 Speaker 1: senior people at the Vice President's office are accusing Israel 491 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: of spreading rumors that Iran prefers jd vance to negotiator 492 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 1: because he is more sympathetic to them. So just lots 493 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: of rumors flying around are Trump advanced? On the same 494 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: page here, what exactly is Trump's vision at this point 495 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: of the conflict? Does he want the pakistanis of all people, 496 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: to get involved their Pakistan has been rumors to be 497 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: getting involved here as a potential intermediary to try to 498 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: negotiate some sort of off ramp when it comes to 499 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: the US, Israel and Iran. And I guess what would 500 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: amount to for part negotiation, So is that actually going 501 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 1: to happen? And moreover, moreover, what about the military. There's 502 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: just a lot going on here. There are a lot 503 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: of moving parts. Meanwhile, the actual war itself is not 504 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: slowing down, at least at this moment. There was a huge, 505 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: huge explosion over the past twenty four hours or so 506 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 1: in the Strait of Hormuz, the IRGC, this Long Revolutionary 507 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:54,360 Speaker 1: Guard Corps torching, absolutely torching, this oil tanker known as 508 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: the Safetyene Prestige, which has just been burning and burning 509 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: and burning. There really harrowing stuff, tons of billowing black smoke. 510 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: There A very fascinating update for you as well, is 511 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: not quite confirmed yet, but there are some folks and 512 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: Jennifer Griffin even on Fox News are pooring this as well, 513 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: that Saudi Arabia is now claim that they are essentially 514 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: going to get involved in these military actions immedately. When 515 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: it comes to the Arab countries, I essentially will believe 516 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: that when I see it. If you know or listen 517 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: to this, if you watch to listen to this show, 518 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: you know my thoughts when it comes to the Arab 519 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: States seeming duplicity and their two faced nature when it 520 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: comes to a lot of these things, a lot of 521 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: the Saudis and Rats probably say, all the very hardcore, 522 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: get the Irritian stuff, and then when it comes to 523 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: publicly showing, they're like, eh, not so much. I'll let 524 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: the United States and Israel handle it. Ironically, a lot 525 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: of these countries in please sud Arabia haven't even actually 526 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: acknowledge or recognized Israel. So the whole thing is kind 527 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: of just a total mess. Now we'll see again if 528 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: sad Arabia gets involved. But how is this going to 529 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 1: end and what exactly is is going to shape up 530 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: to be over the next few weeks. Now, there was 531 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: an interesting side events to tie this back to the 532 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: Sea Path conference, where Steve Bannon was hosting a live 533 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: taping of his very popular show The War Room. Was 534 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: actually he and Eric Bolding were on stage together at 535 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: the time. Bannon decided say to the live audience, I 536 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,199 Speaker 1: walked right by this. I knows out the where in 537 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 1: the convention this was. He said to the live audience, 538 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: let's do a quick little poll here. Should Donald Trump 539 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: finish the job against Iran? Or should he find an 540 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,199 Speaker 1: off ramp asap? And Bannon has been quite critical of 541 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: the war effort, maybe not as over the top critical 542 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: as Tucker Carlson who's called it literally evil. So I 543 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: don't think Bannon has been there, but he's definitely been 544 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: a critic of the war, much like Tucker and Megan 545 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: and Matt Gates and this whole crowd. And the answer 546 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: perhaps didn't go exactly the way that Bannon thought, so 547 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: there was way more applause for finish the job than 548 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: for cut bait and get out of town. In fact, 549 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: Steve by his own estimates men that it was a 550 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: sixty five thirty five split in favor of finish a job, 551 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: frankly based on the clip that I I saw, and 552 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: what I heard seemed to me to be even more 553 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: A long time than that, we're talking here a probably 554 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: seventy five, twenty five, eighty twenty. But again we're just 555 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: putting hairs at some certain point. The point is that 556 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: the magabase still is lined up behind this effort, but 557 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: there is increasing anecdotal and polling evidence to suggest that 558 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: maybe the American peel more broadly, are not quite as 559 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: robustly supportive of this effort as the Trump base is 560 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: at this juncture. At some point at some points you're 561 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: going to have to find some way to get out. 562 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: The war obviously cannot go on forever. It is true 563 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: that Donald Trump campaigns against forever wars. It's also true 564 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: that the Moles have been involved in a forty seven 565 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: euar forever war against the United States. There are a 566 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 1: lot of things here that will sign that are simultaneously 567 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: true at once. No one, I repeat no one, maybe 568 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,239 Speaker 1: Lindsay Grant, but like literally no one's short of that 569 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: wants to see ground troops in Orran. And I didn't 570 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: event in Dallas two nights ago, the night prior to 571 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: my seatback speech of smaller events in Dallas proper, and 572 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: I I said here that this is not gonna happen. 573 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 3: The notion that there will be naval vessels. 574 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: Dropping off marines on the Persian Gulf to mount this 575 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: long march to Tehran with the eighty second Airborne, the 576 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: Delta Force, I mean, get out of here. It's not 577 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: gonna happen. It is absolutely not gonna happen. There have 578 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: been all these stories about whether it's a few thousand, 579 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: and we have the ten thousand additional ground troops going 580 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: to the region there. 581 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 3: If that happens. 582 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: And if Donald Trump does decide to try to call 583 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: Iran's bluff and try to forcibly reopen the crucial Strait 584 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: of Hormuz, this twenty one mile choke point through which 585 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: a fifth of the world's oil flows, if he does that, 586 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,479 Speaker 1: it will look something like trying to seize Carg Island, 587 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: this very strategic island near the Strait, and island, by 588 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: the way, that Trump has been calling for as. 589 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 3: Long back as nineteen eighty eight for the US to 590 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 3: get involved in. 591 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: He literally told The Guardian, the British newspaper that very 592 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: year that if he were president, that he would go 593 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: in and take Carg Island to cut off the Iranian's 594 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: number one way to export their very precious petroleum to 595 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: the global markets. So I think you're looking at something 596 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: like that, taking Carg Island, maybe taking some other small 597 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: islands there. You're not looking at an actual ground incursion there, 598 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: but at some point, at some point there, you are 599 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: going to have to find some way to try to 600 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: to expedite in the short term and really ideally try 601 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: to get the run in people in situation where they 602 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: actually can can make a play to take their destiny 603 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: into their own hands. Easier said than done, really really 604 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: user soeth and done. But try to expedite that and 605 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: make that happen the next month ish after that, you're 606 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: looking for some sorts of pretty expeditious timeline to try 607 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: to find a way to say that you have neutralized 608 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: ron spread way. And by the way, they've done a 609 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: ton of damage ready, So kudos to all involved in 610 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: doing that tremendous damage to this most terrible of foes. 611 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: We cover transgenderism a lot on the show. We cover 612 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 1: it a lot on the show for a few reasons. 613 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: On a smaller level, we cover the transgender topic because 614 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,480 Speaker 1: it is just mind boggling and saying it's just crazy, 615 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: this notion that a man can become a woman or 616 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: a woman can become a man. And also we believe 617 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 1: and the polling bears out that it is a tremendously 618 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: politically winning issue for conservatives. The notion that biological men 619 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: should compete against biological women in women's sports is something 620 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: like an eighty twenty issue. And if anything that's being conservative, 621 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: how many eighty twenty issues do you find in the 622 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: broader public, Well, there really are not a lot. There 623 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: are some wedge quote unquote cultural issues that really are 624 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 1: that lopsided. Transgender athletics is one. Deportations of reprobrates, miscreants 625 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: like Mahmu Khalil and Kilmar Brigo Garcia, that's another as well. 626 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: But the broader reason that we like to cover the 627 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: transgender is an issue is because, if you think back 628 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: to some of our opening comments here on our show today, 629 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 1: this show is fundamentally about the truth. We're fundamentally about 630 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: as our already alluded to Genesis one twenty seven, the 631 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: first half of which says that man is made in 632 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: the image of God, the second half of which says 633 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: that male and female He created them. In other words, 634 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: the entire construct of transgenderism, this social theory, this University 635 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: Ivy Ivory Tower, Woke madrasa social fantasy that somehow eked 636 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: out into the real world where it's doing tremendous damage, 637 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: irreversible damage. As my friend Dabiel Schreier wrote about in 638 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: a great book a few years ago, this is ultimately 639 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: an attack on truth, and we're not about that here 640 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: on the show. We are about truth and we oppose lies, 641 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 1: and that ultimately, really substantively is why we are opposed 642 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: to the transgender gender, while not being opposed to individual 643 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 1: transgender individuals who think that they are something that they 644 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,959 Speaker 1: are not their genderice for you, a long recognized like 645 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: logical malady by the DSM. We have immen's compassion, et cetera, 646 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera necessary caveat less ib called something 647 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 1: that I am not now. All that is context for 648 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: a wonderful development that happened in the international sporting community, 649 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,760 Speaker 1: which is that the IOC, the International Olympic Committee itself, 650 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 1: has now formalized a new policy when it comes to 651 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:26,799 Speaker 1: protecting women's sports against the predations of biological males who 652 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: seek to intrude upon ultimately to ruin those women's sports. 653 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: So it is a brand new policy from the IOC, 654 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: and you can read about over at Olympics dot com. 655 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: They have the whole formal statements. They basically say that 656 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: quote eligibility for any female category event at the Olympic 657 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 1: Games or any other IOC event, including individual and team sports, 658 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: is now limited to biological females determined on the basis 659 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: of a one time SROY gene screening. In other words, 660 00:34:55,800 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: if you have a male chromosomal structure out of luck, 661 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 1: go compete against the boys as you should. You're not 662 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: welcome in women's athletics. This is the quintessence of common sense. 663 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: The IOC is an international organization, and the speculation here 664 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: is that the reason that this decision came out now, 665 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: at the time that it did is because the Olympic 666 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: Games are coming up in Los Angeles in twenty and 667 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 1: twenty eight. Those will be the next Olympic Games, the 668 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: Summer Games, now that the Winter Games in Milan, Courtina 669 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: have just gone ahead and concluded. So the idea here 670 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: is that Donald Trump willlso be president in twenty twenty. 671 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: By the way, donald Trump having an amazing sports second term. Okay, 672 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: the World Cup is this summer. The World Cup technically 673 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: is being jointly co hosted by Canada, the US, Mexico. 674 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: First of that three countries ever done it. Years ago 675 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: they had South Korea Japan splitted. Now it's three countries. 676 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: It is the first time ever, but it's mostly the 677 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: United States. It's Canada Mexico kind of a sideshow. By 678 00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: the way, open question as to whether or not FIFA 679 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 1: actually keeps those matches in Mexico given all the recent 680 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: cartel violence the fact that Mexico is increasingly obvious to 681 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: be a failed NARCO state and not a government has 682 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: a monopoly on use of force, the defining feature of 683 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: a sovereign entity. So we'll see what that happens there. 684 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: But Donal Trump to have the World Cup. He's gonna 685 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: have the Los Angeles Summer Games there. And the IOC 686 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 1: is now aligning their policy when it comes to Donald 687 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,840 Speaker 1: Trump on the issue of biological men competing in women's sports. 688 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: Just remarkable, remarkable stuff. By the way, even Bob Costas, 689 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: a long time liberal and a veteran a fixture in 690 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 1: the sports commentary space going back twenty five, thirty, maybe 691 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: forty years, Bob Costas, who had all sorts of anti 692 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: Bush musings back the day anti Trump musings guy, is 693 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 1: a total liberal and even he even he on an 694 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: appearance on CNM saying that this is common sense, it's 695 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: not transphobic. 696 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 3: Here's Bob Costas. 697 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 2: There's a reason why the high school champions don't compete 698 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 2: with the college champions. There is a reason why no 699 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 2: transman who was once a woman and has become a 700 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 2: man has ever competed successfully with men in the Olympics. 701 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 2: If Caitlin Clark could play in the NBA, everybody would 702 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 2: applaud it. 703 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 3: That'd be an incredible thing. 704 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 2: But if the last guy on the bench of an 705 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 2: NBA team went to the WNBA and started averaging forty 706 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 2: points a game, everyone would know that is bs. There's 707 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 2: a reason why Sugar Ray Leonard, who was a contemporary 708 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 2: of Mike Tyson, didn't fight Mike Tyson. They were in 709 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 2: different weight classes. There is a reason why there are 710 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 2: men's and women's sports, and why Title nine was one 711 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 2: of the truly progressive pieces of legislation in the best 712 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 2: sense of the word progressive. 713 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 1: So is Bob Costas seeing the light in his later years? 714 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 3: No, probably not. 715 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: That gimes back actually to the eighty twenty issue. This 716 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: is that stinking obvious of an issue. So good for 717 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: the IOC. Nothing that we say here very often on 718 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 1: the show, but good for the International Olympic Committee in 719 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: aligning their policy not just with Donald Trump's executive order 720 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: from his first days of a second term, but also 721 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 1: just with common sense, with sexual dimorphism, and ultimately with 722 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 1: truth and not just lowercase teach truth, but capital T 723 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: truth as well. We've covered on the show how there's 724 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: a broader pushback against transgenderism going on. 725 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 3: There. There was this remarkable. 726 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: Jury verdict in New York States, in Westchester County, my 727 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: home county actually in late January, how a quote unquote 728 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: detransitioner won a two million dollar medical malpractice lawsuit, the 729 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,800 Speaker 1: very first time that's ever ever happened. So the tide 730 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: is very much turning on this issue. The Left has 731 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 1: dramatically overplayed its hand when it comes to the issue 732 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: of transgenderism and the LGBT rainbow jihad. More generally, they've 733 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: overplayed their hands when it comes to open borders, and 734 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: they've severely overplayed their hands when it comes to this 735 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 1: as well. And right now they are simply just reaping 736 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 1: what they have long sowed on that issue. 737 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 3: Well. 738 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 1: A man who is now deceased and therefore has also 739 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: reaped what he sowed is the subject of our final 740 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: thoughts for today's show, and that is a true monster 741 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 1: of human history by the name of Kermit Gosnell. He 742 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: is now dead at the age of eighty five, dead 743 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 1: much like the hundreds, perhaps thousands of unborn children who 744 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: he murdered in mid to late term gestational period. Kurma 745 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 1: Gosnel was discovered. He was outed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 746 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen for running one of the most horrific houses 747 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,800 Speaker 1: of horror in the entire annals of American history, if 748 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: not Western civilization history. It was a late term abortion 749 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:46,439 Speaker 1: clinic for the express purpose of murdering babies after they 750 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 1: can suck on their thumb, after they have functioning brain waves, 751 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: they have spines, they have skulls. And this is so 752 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,320 Speaker 1: grisly I can barely say it without being moved to tears. 753 00:39:58,360 --> 00:39:59,800 Speaker 1: And by the way, there was a wonderful movie on 754 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 1: the this whole horrible affair in twenty eighteen by Nick Seriously, 755 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: I highly encourage you to see. If we never saw 756 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: called Gosnell, the trial of America's biggest serial killer. I 757 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 1: saw it in theaters when he came out back in 758 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. It's heart wrenching stuff, but it's a must 759 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: must see film. So Gosnell would literally snip these spinal 760 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 1: cords of these twenty five to thirty five week babies. 761 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 1: At one point in one of his employees was so 762 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: scarred that he had to puke af after what he 763 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,320 Speaker 1: saw of the spinal court snip. That's Ultimately, how Gosnell 764 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: was outed, he ends up being tried and ends up 765 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: being prosecuted. He was sentenced to life in prison. In 766 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, he was convicted on a three counts and 767 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 1: murder for severing the spinal cords of late term babies, 768 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: but the grand jury report estimanded the number of newborn 769 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 1: murders to be at least in the hundreds, if not 770 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,760 Speaker 1: in the thousands. And he is now dead. He died 771 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,840 Speaker 1: in the hospital at the age of eighty five. What 772 00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: is there to say, folks? Life has to be cherished. 773 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: Life is a beautiful thing. I think often about Jeremiah 774 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: Chapter one, verse five, which says, quote, when I had 775 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: not yet formed you in the womb, I knew you, 776 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: And when you had not yet emerged from the womb, 777 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: I had appointed you a profit to the nations. 778 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 3: I made you. 779 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: I knew you when you had not yet emerged from 780 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: the womb. Human life is sacred. People like Gosnell will 781 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: be remembered as the tyrants of history. Life is one 782 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: of the most important values that any conservative word the 783 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: name consertive ought to stand for. It's certainly what we 784 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,479 Speaker 1: stand for here on the show, and you should stand for. 785 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 3: It as well. 786 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 1: Folks, have a great weekend and enjoy the college basketball. 787 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 3: Go Duke. 788 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: If I may say so shamelessly. We write back on Monday, folks. 789 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 3: We'll see that
