And 25 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 3: again President Trump I thought hit an amazing note when 26 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 3: he said I will not forget and he was referring 27 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 3: to angel families. And a lot of us know the 28 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 3: story of Lake and Riley in Georgia who was killed 29 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 3: at the hands of an illegal immigrant, but there's so 30 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 3: many stories that we don't care as much about and 31 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 3: we need to and here to help us is Joe Abraham. 32 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 3: He's an angel, father to daughter Katie, who was killed 33 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 3: by an illegal immigrant. 34 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 4: He joins us now. He was at the event yesterday. 35 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 3: Joe, Welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show and thanks so 36 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 3: much for taking the time to be with us. 37 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 4: Please tell us your story and your family story. 38 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 5: Sure, thanks for having me and allowing me to talk 39 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 5: about Katie and Katie's life. So Katie was twenty years old. 40 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 5: She was a third year student at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio, 41 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 5: and her and a friend, a friend in the in 42 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 5: the glen View, Illinois area that's where we live, took 43 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 5: the train down to Urbana, Illinois to visit some friends 44 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 5: at the University of Illinois over the weekend of January, 45 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 5: you know, eighteenth. They went down there. They were in 46 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 5: an automobile on January nineteenth at a stoplight Idol and 47 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 5: they were rear ended at almost eighty miles an hour, 48 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 5: just decimated the Hota Civic they were in. The suv 49 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 5: just plowed right into them, no breaking, no swerving. Katie 50 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 5: unfortunately died on the scene. Another young woman died the 51 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 5: next day. There were three injuries, and it turned out 52 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 5: the person who struck the vehicle, you know, not only 53 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 5: fled right away. I mean, can you imagine you decimate 54 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 5: five lives and the first instinct you have is to flee. 55 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 5: So it turns out he is an illegal alien, a 56 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 5: Guatemalan national using a Mexican national alias. 57 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 6: So sanctuary state. 58 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 5: Illinois, when they nullified federal law, did not put any 59 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 5: type of a real process in place on the front end. 60 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 6: There were no guardrails. 61 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 5: That's how negligent and how Illinois is so mismanaged by 62 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 5: the governor pritsker on down General Assembly, every state legislature. 63 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 6: So there are no guardrails. 64 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 5: Now, on top of this, in the country, using an 65 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 5: alias and false documentations, identity FAFT or whatever you want 66 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 5: to call it. 67 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 6: He flees. 68 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 5: They finally apprehend him two days after Donald Trump is 69 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 5: in office on the twentieth shuts down the border. I 70 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 5: truly believe if New Yorkist and Biden were still running things, 71 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 5: he would have never been apprehended. So thank goodness for 72 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 5: Donald Trump coming in shutting the border down, allowing US 73 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 5: marshals and border patrol to do their jobs, unlike the 74 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 5: prior administration. They apprehended him. Now it turns out in 75 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 5: federal court he is, now that he's been incarcerated, is 76 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 5: being treated for HIV. So understand this as well. ELLINOI 77 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 5: did not only have zero minimal vetting checks because the 78 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 5: federal enforcement officers knew he was using an alias. They 79 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 5: knew he was not who he says he was. ILLINOI 80 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 5: didn't bother to check. 81 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 6: Two. Did ILLINOI help this guy with any health screening? No? 82 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 5: There was absolutely not. So ILLINOI allows folks to roam 83 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 5: around the state unchecked, unvetted, unhealth screened. So this guy 84 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 5: has HIV in our communities? Was let go to Rome free? 85 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 5: Was he as reckless with his HIV as he was 86 00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 5: behind the wheel drunk drive. 87 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 6: I suspect he was so. 88 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 5: So Katie ends up paying a price, a predictable outcome 89 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 5: of reckless, extreme radical policies out of Illinois, and she 90 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 5: pays the price. She's on some alter we don't even understand. 91 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 5: She dies on some alter of JB. Pritzker and his 92 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 5: lapdogs in the General Assembly. So I sit here with 93 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 5: a life sentence thanks to my Illinois government, and Katie received. 94 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 6: The death penalty. 95 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: She got death. 96 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 6: That's it. 97 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 5: And ILLINOI will is right now trying to erase us, 98 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 5: silence us, make us disappear. We're so inconvenient to their 99 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 5: nonsense stories about how there are no illegals in the country, 100 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 5: that everyone is good, and it just goes against human 101 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 5: nature how they approach things. 102 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 6: It's really rather disgusting and insidious. 103 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 3: Well, and Joe, you know CNN MS now refused to 104 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 3: air that ceremony that was honoring your families, that was 105 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 3: honoring Katie and Lake and Riley and so many others 106 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 3: before And I was reading your op ed here and 107 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 3: you sent a letter to JB. Pritzker with eleven questions 108 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 3: and he's I believe, still not gotten back to you. 109 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 4: It sounds like, but you write here. 110 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,119 Speaker 3: The pain our family has experienced in the last twelve 111 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 3: plus months since Katie's death is beyond description. I wish 112 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 3: I could explain it to people. The pain is so unbearable. 113 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 3: At times it is me almost unable to function. I 114 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 3: am haunted by the knowledge that I will never walk 115 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 3: my daughter down the aisle, I'll never hold her children, 116 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 3: I'll never see her again. I would give anything, anything, 117 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 3: and the rest of my days for just one more 118 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,799 Speaker 3: hour with her. It's very emotional to read that. Compare 119 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 3: what you've seen from the State of Illinois and President 120 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 3: Trump and that ceremony yesterday. 121 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 6: Oh you can't. You can't even believe the difference, you know. 122 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 2: JB. 123 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 5: Pritzker loves to talk about Donald Trump and authoritarian this, 124 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 5: that and the other. If my first hand experiences, Donald 125 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,799 Speaker 5: Trump has welcomed us to the White House more than once, 126 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 5: has looked me in the eye, father to father and 127 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 5: said this has been a mess. 128 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 6: We're gonna clean it up. And JB. Pritzker compare him 129 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 6: ignored us. 130 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 5: I was in the same committee room as he was, 131 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 5: just ten feet away from him for eight hours. Didn't 132 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 5: say one, didn't even look in my direction. He doesn't 133 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 5: even probably know who I am, nor does he care. 134 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 5: Jan Schakowski another woman who who now is picking her 135 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 5: successor this Daniel Biskuy from Evanson, and you should see Evanston. 136 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 5: It's like Chicago Junior, and apparently there's no kings, but 137 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 5: in Illinois you can decide who you're going to appoint 138 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 5: to take over your seat. So she's walking by me 139 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 5: as if I wasn't there. So there was not one 140 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 5: Democrat who would talk to me. And this state is 141 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 5: all in Illinois, is all run by Democrats, so I 142 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 5: need to talk to them. That's who's running this thing, 143 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 5: and not one would talk to me. So look at 144 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 5: the difference there. This guy is not COMPASSIONATEBI he's not 145 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 5: a caring man. He is someone who's aloof He's arrogant somehow. 146 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 5: I think he doesn't, you know, need the voters. He 147 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 5: certainly doesn't. He's not accountable to the voters. 148 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 6: He's to me. 149 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 5: I think, you know, people are leaving Illinois and drovees 150 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 5: and he's backfilling them with this free for all immigration 151 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 5: policy because I think he needs warm bodies. Here's what 152 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 5: I suspect, and I can tell you a story on 153 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 5: that too, if you'd like, I wonder how many ballots 154 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 5: are tied to these illegal alien bodies. That's that's why 155 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 5: I think he's arrogant and doesn't really need to answer 156 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 5: to the voters. 157 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 4: No, I think I think that that's uh. 158 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: I think a lot of us suspect the same, and 159 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 3: we obviously see it because it ends up in the 160 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 3: census data, it ends up in electoral college votes, it 161 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 3: ends up in congressional apportionment. So whether or not there's 162 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: ballot to ballot illegal voting, it's still it's still power 163 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 3: that is being given to Democrats one way or the other. Joe, 164 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 3: thank you so much for making the time. I know 165 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 3: you've got travel and you wedge this dint.

You can hit. 202 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 7: Your your your party boy thing. I want a white 203 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 7: pillar for the whole for America in a big picture. 204 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 7: I want to highlight flag this big article, well not 205 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 7: a big article, they're all they're always short on Axios. 206 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 7: Axios has an article this morning with a very sinister 207 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 7: sounding title, inside Trump's purge of US immigration courts. You 208 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 7: read it, Here's what the purge is. For literally decades, 209 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 7: we've gradually built up this incredibly long backlog of cases 210 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 7: in our immigration courts, which is obviously deliberate. While you're 211 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 7: waiting for your day in court. You of course have 212 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 7: the right to just live in America, do whatever you want, 213 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 7: work in America. And the Biden administration sent that into overdrive. 214 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 7: They were giving people court dates two years, three years, 215 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 7: I believe in one case a court date ten years out, 216 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 7: and then releasing people into the country. And I know 217 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 7: people are sometimes frustrated that things feel like they're going 218 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 7: slow in the Trump administration, or that things, you know, 219 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 7: it'll be two steps forward, one step back. But this 220 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 7: is a great example of how in the background they're 221 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:54,359 Speaker 7: getting the job done. Uh, they've hired, they're hiring dozens 222 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 7: of new immigration judges and they've been training them up 223 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 7: and apparently this month is when they're finally getting into action. 224 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 7: And that's important because as is already in the past year, 225 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 7: the backlog of cases, the total number of cases they 226 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 7: have to process, has fallen by three hundred and forty 227 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 7: one thousand, and this next year maybe that'll be half 228 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 7: a million, six hundred a million. And that's really important 229 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 7: because when you adjudicate those cases, it goes really fast. 230 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 7: Almost all of these you can handle in a matter 231 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 7: of hours if not if not less. 232 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 4: And once you're doing that, that is what allows ICE. 233 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 7: To just go and say, oh, you have an order 234 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 7: of removal, we're taking you, getting you out of the country. 235 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 4: Bam bam, bam, bam bam. 236 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 7: You make it so much easier for ICE to just 237 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 7: grab people, get him out. And it's so great here 238 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 7: they just have these quotes where like, you know, they 239 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 7: put this guy, Darren Margalin in charge of training up 240 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 7: the new hires. He was an immigration judge and he 241 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 7: quit in twenty twenty four because he said, quote, I 242 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 7: felt like a co conspirator in treason regarding the Biden 243 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 7: administration's policies. Now he is taking leadership of the Executive 244 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 7: Office of Immigration Review, and he is ramming this through. 245 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 7: So I wanted to flag that for people to show 246 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 7: there are stories that are not getting front page headlines, 247 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 7: they're not getting covered on CNN, that we are getting 248 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 7: the work done for mass deportations in the years to come. 249 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 7: You just purge those cases, get it done, big white 250 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 7: pill for today. 251 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 3: That's a white pill. I love the white I love 252 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 3: white Pill Blake. It's my favorite Blake. And so when 253 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 3: he comes up with these ideas, I'm like, we're gonna 254 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: find time in the show, Blake. 255 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 4: You know, it's perfect. So I love that. 256 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 3: And I'm a big immigration hawk, so God bless that. 257 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 3: I love how the Axios calls it purge. 258 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 4: What a joke. 259 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 3: Okay, guys, all right, So here's my white pill of 260 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: the day. The US men's hockey team is back on 261 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 3: US soil. They are still Patriots, they're still sounding like. 262 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 4: The perfect note. 263 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 3: And they had to get rerouted to Miami because of 264 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 3: the weather in the northern part of the country. Well, 265 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 3: and so what do you do when you're Miami. Now 266 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 3: there's a lot of people you shouldn't be partying. It's like, okay, 267 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 3: loosen up. They just won the gold medal.

They don't like the men's hockey team losing 295 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 3: teeth and then draping themselves in the American flag and 296 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 3: then go into a club in Miami because they get 297 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 3: rerouted to a warmer climate with the Northwestern coming in. 298 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 3: Telling you what they really have a problem with is 299 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 3: unabashed masculine energy. 300 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 4: Victory. 301 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 3: We're not apologizing for it. And here's what else is great. 302 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: President Trump promised and he delivered. Four h five. This 303 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 3: is the men's hockey team getting picked up by the 304 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 3: President for the State of the Union tonight, four h five. 305 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 8: Look at Miami International Airport.

I'd love to 360 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 9: hear Trump talk about a spending freeze. When you watch 361 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 9: Trump every day and have to, sort of because of 362 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 9: your job, watch all the press conferences like you guys do, 363 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 9: like I do, you know, you hear a lot of 364 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 9: the same themes repeated. And so I'm a little bit 365 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 9: fearful that, you know, as a junkie, that I that 366 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 9: I will have heard everything that I that Trump's gonna 367 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 9: talk about tonight in terms of emphasizing how the economy 368 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 9: is better than people say, et cetera, et cetera. But 369 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 9: you know me, you know the stack. You saw it yesterday, 370 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 9: two headlines in green italics that where I linked to 371 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 9: Scott Bessett when he was on Maria Barbaroma's show on 372 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 9: Sunday morning talking about the national debt. 373 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 2: So I would love. 374 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 9: You know, that is the part of what I hope 375 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 9: for in in you know, in Trump two point zero 376 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 9: is having both you know, control of both Congresses, that 377 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 9: maybe we could finally realistically take a look at the 378 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 9: big three programs of Medicaid, Medicare, social Security, get those 379 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 9: start getting the conversations going about how to fix those programs. 380 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 9: And also, well and I threw it in as my 381 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 9: second headline as a message to Trump yesterday, specifically to 382 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 9: him because I know he reads the site that you know, 383 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,239 Speaker 9: they make that make this his legacy, make you know, 384 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 9: fixing the national debt his legacy. 385 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 2: And uh and so that's what I'd like to hear. 386 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 3: Well, you know, Charlie, the first clips that you'll see 387 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 3: of Charlie on TV, it was all about the national debt. 388 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 3: He was obsessed with it and remained obsessed with it. 389 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 3: He was a fiscal his whole life. And uh, you know, 390 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 3: I would say, I would say that a balanced budget. 391 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 4: Blake is skeptical. 392 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 3: I know, I know Blake's skeptical, but a balanced budget 393 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: would be a massive, massive accomplishment. 394 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 4: I I totally agree. Would you have to go ahead? 395 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 7: I just I think a way that he could maybe 396 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 7: at least gesture towards that. The past six months, we've 397 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 7: had story after story of massive fraud in government, a 398 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 7: massive fraud of federal programs, Medicaid, every federal program getting 399 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,879 Speaker 7: looted in Minnesota, in Maine, in Washington, in California. I 400 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 7: think if you made that a big theme of his address, 401 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 7: about oh, we're going to have a detailed auditing task 402 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 7: force that will identify, I would arrest, stop the fraud, 403 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 7: deport the people committing it. I think that would be 404 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 7: a good way to at least make gestures towards the debt. 405 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 7: Even if I'm skeptical this administration is ready to they're 406 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 7: not gonna. I don't think they're going to take big 407 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 7: steps on Social Security or any of those big items. 408 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 3: Well, you know, I go back to Cain and you're 409 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 3: you're you're a financial guy. People don't know that your 410 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 3: background is in finance. But the tweet from Mark Halprin 411 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:37,959 Speaker 3: that we actually made a lot of We actually had 412 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 3: Mark Calpern on the show. 413 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 4: To talk about it. 414 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 3: Apparently for Breezio, one of the main polsters for President Trump, 415 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 3: did a whole presentation and he outlined the sort of 416 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 3: I would call them populist economic wins and how to message, 417 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 3: how to get through because this sticky issue of the economy. 418 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 3: People still don't feel the momentum. I mean, they come out, 419 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 3: We're coming out of four years of Biden inflation, and 420 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 3: they're still not feeling that relief. So Fabrizio's got these 421 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 3: ideas of like you know, band stock trading for Congress, right, 422 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 3: you get these these scalps at these these actionable wins 423 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 3: that would start kind of piercing the noise and getting 424 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 3: into the population of the voting population. What do you 425 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 3: think about the economic messaging Kane specifically tonight. 426 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 9: Yeah, well I read that Fabrizio stuff last week and 427 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 9: it was it was good, and he makes a good 428 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 9: point about getting some wins getting to. 429 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 2: What Blake said. 430 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 9: He Blake is right fraud beating fraud polls really really well. 431 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 9: Mark Mitchell of Rasmussen has sort of talked about it. 432 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 9: He had a piece up talking about how Trump was 433 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 9: doing the best, actually doing the best poll wise when 434 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 9: Doge was in the was Doge was in the news, 435 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 9: and and then you know that maybe the missed opportunity 436 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 9: in Minnesota was instead of concentrating on the on the 437 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 9: deportation and the ice part. Maybe concentrating more on the 438 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 9: fraud part, because all, you know, a lot more of 439 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 9: America can get behind the fraud stuff. In terms of, 440 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 9: you know, a bold move towards Social Security, which Blake 441 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,959 Speaker 9: also mentioned, Yeah, I don't expect that. I just want 442 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 9: the conversations to start. You know, let's start talking about 443 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 9: how we slowly raise the retirement age from sixty seven 444 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,719 Speaker 9: to seventy over thirty years, you know, nothing quick, you know, 445 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 9: so the people don't freak out another you know, I 446 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 9: thought I have about why people don't really feel the 447 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 9: economy getting better is, to be honest, it's it's interest rates. 448 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 9: I've got my neighbors across the street who are stuck 449 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 9: in their house. They they're the greatest people. They've got 450 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 9: four amazing young athletes under ten. They homeschool these kids, 451 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 9: and they're stuck in this tiny lot. Why because of 452 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 9: interest rates. They're homes at three percent loan and so anyway, 453 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 9: I think that'll be huge. I put a headline in 454 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 9: today about Austin Goldsby, who used to be Obama's you know, 455 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 9: economic guru, about how he's you know, still saying he 456 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 9: won't lower rates, Thank goodness, Kevin Warrish will. 457 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 2: Be able to so. 458 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 9: And by the way, you know, I watched CNBC on 459 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 9: mute most of the day, and you know, the third 460 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 9: your mortgage has finally dipped under six percent. It's five 461 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 9: point ninety nine. Now, granted, that's that's still big. You know, 462 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 9: those are still a big number compared to three and 463 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 9: the three and a half percent. But it's gonna get better, 464 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 9: and I think that'll help well. 465 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, no, there was a there was a 466 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 3: story out of Fox Business this morning that the purchasing 467 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 3: power of home buyers is up over thirty thousand dollars 468 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 3: under Trump, partly because of interest rates, but also partly 469 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 3: because of rising incomes, and so as those interest rates 470 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 3: continue to tick down, people are going to experience a 471 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 3: little bit more flexibility. It's you know, I think the 472 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 3: Zillow quote in there was it's the difference between having 473 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 3: to settle and being able to actually choose a home 474 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 3: you want to live in. So it makes a huge, 475 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 3: huge difference for home buyers just to have even thirty 476 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 3: fifty thousand dollars more money on the table to be 477 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 3: able to buy a home. So but continue, you were 478 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 3: you were going, well. 479 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 2: Whatever, I think that's gonna help. 480 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 9: I really think that'll help people's you know, sentiment towards 481 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 9: the economy. And U look, I think that you know, 482 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 9: I think Trump is doing okay. I pay attention to 483 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 9: Rasmussen approval. 484 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 2: I don't really really. 485 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 9: I mean, I look at all the other approval numbers 486 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 9: that come out, but I really pay attention to Rasmussen's 487 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 9: daily tracker. And you know, Trump slash Republican. Let's say 488 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 9: it's JD vance in three years or in two years. 489 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 9: You know, he can win, we can we can pull 490 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 9: it off in these numbers. You guys know that I'm 491 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 9: not super optimistic about the midterms, right because what did 492 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 9: how many did Trump lose in twenty eighteen? He lost 493 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 9: almost forty seats or he did lose forty seats in 494 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 9: the House, So the House is going to be very tough. 495 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 9: I think we hold the Senate just because of the numbers. 496 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 9: And and you know, it's so vital for our movement, 497 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 9: so vital that we that you know, that we win 498 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 9: in twenty twenty eight that JD wins. And last thing 499 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 9: I'll say before I throw it back, I thought it 500 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 9: was a great discussion on that Atlantic article that you 501 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 9: guys had that you know that I have got in 502 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 9: the stack from yesterday.

Charlie was always 599 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 3: big on the health and your personal hygiene is also 600 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 3: very important. 601 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 4: Okay. 602 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 3: Two elephants in the room at the State of the Union. 603 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 3: Kne that's Iran in the Epstein files. What do you 604 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 3: make of both, especially Iran? What are you seeing from 605 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 3: CFP nation, especially on Iran. 606 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that's a good question about what the people think. 607 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 9: Obviously, a huge part of the America first thing is 608 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 9: not to want to get involved in foreign wars. So 609 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 9: there's a natural trepidation that exists, and that's there. But 610 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 9: at the same time, it's a trust you know, there's 611 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 9: a trust Trump vibe. 612 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 2: People really do trust them. 613 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 9: Look remember when in Trump one point zero when he 614 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 9: sent cruise missiles into Syria and people freaked out for 615 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 9: twenty four hours, Oh my god. 616 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 2: And that's all it was. 617 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 9: Was was a short little Reagan burst if people, you 618 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 9: guys aren't old enough. But Reagan took care of Kadafi 619 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 9: with some cruise missiles in the eighties. I remember it, 620 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 9: and and it was just it was just, you know, 621 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 9: twelve hours of bombing and we got our point across. 622 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 9: So anyway, people trust Trump. So I don't think that 623 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 9: people are radically freaked out. If you're asking, you know, 624 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 9: I've had a lot of people sort of asked me 625 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 9: what are the odds. What do I see happening there? Look, 626 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 9: I would say that that Iran has been given fair warning. 627 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 9: You know, Trump doesn't. Trump is well aware of that. 628 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 9: Of that, what they say about him on Wall Street, 629 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 9: the the taco trade, and and when it comes to 630 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 9: these foreign policy thinks, Trump doesn't fool around. So I 631 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 9: think Iran, bet you know, I put it in the 632 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 9: stack yesterday. There's gonna be meetings in Geneva, I think 633 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 9: on Thursday. Iron supposedly has a new proposal on getting 634 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 9: rid of nukes. But if they don't do it, you 635 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 9: know Trump, this will be the last thing I'll say. 636 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 9: You know, there was that Axio story yesterday that said 637 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 9: that Trump's biggot, you know, his top general Raisin Kane, 638 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 9: maybe was showing a little bit of of caution about 639 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 9: bombing in Iran. And then Trump himself almost immediately put 640 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 9: out a long message on true Social that you alerted 641 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 9: me to. By the way, Andrew, and I hadn't seen 642 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 9: Trump's response to that, and that was important. 643 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 2: I think. 644 00:31:58,320 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 9: You know, you can you can figure out a lot 645 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 9: by seeing how Trump is reacting to certain stories. So 646 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,479 Speaker 9: the fact that he said that, no, that there you know, 647 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 9: that raising Kane really wasn't worried, and and and that 648 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 9: Acxios got the story wrong. I think it tells you 649 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 9: that Iran should be worried, that the Mulas should be worried. 650 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 9: And then I'll quickly say on Epstein, well go ahead, 651 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 9: if you want to respond on that, go ahead. 652 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I'm going to respond on that just quickly. 653 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 3: I got asked by Politico about people invoking Charlie's name 654 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 3: with this Iran strike and I and I was very 655 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 3: clear with him. I said, yeah, Charlie was America first. 656 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 3: To his cores, he wanted a nation build in America. 657 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 3: He didn't want foreign adventurism, none of it. But when 658 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 3: it came to the first Iran strike, you heard a 659 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 3: lot more chatter. There was a lot more people getting 660 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 3: up in arms about it. And Charlie stood the course. 661 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 3: He was adamant, Hey, we do not want foreign adventurism, 662 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,719 Speaker 3: we do not want nation building abroad. 663 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 4: We want nation building here at home. 664 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, this is why 665 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 3: we elected President Trump to lead the military, to lead 666 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 3: this nation. At some point you have to say, this 667 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 3: is their job. They need to do the best they can. 668 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 3: They need to make the best decisions they can. And 669 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 3: I think you're seeing that after Venezuela, which was incredible 670 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 3: by any metric, what they did in Iran the first time, 671 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 3: I think people understand Trump is a is a high violence, 672 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 3: precision attack kind of guy when it when it comes 673 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 3: to kinetic warfare. Now do what do we want to avoid? 674 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 3: You know, a regime change, drawn out conflict? Absolutely? 675 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 4: Can they do that? 676 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 2: Here? 677 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 3: Question remains, we don't know, We don't know what's going 678 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 3: to happen. And I think Blake made a good point 679 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 3: yesterday when he said that, you know, we we haven't 680 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 3: really been sold on the case for this conflict yet either. Blake, 681 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 3: I don't know if you have any thoughts there, because 682 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 3: you're you're you're great on this. 683 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 4: Yeah. 684 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 7: I think honestly, if they need to make a case, 685 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 7: state of the Union is as good a time as any. 686 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 7: But I think, uh, as things stand out, I think 687 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 7: this is what what Charlie would be most frustrated about 688 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 7: is if you are going to launch a regime change war, 689 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 7: which I think at this point strikes of the magnitude 690 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 7: they seem to be planning. 691 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 4: Would have to be. 692 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 7: You need to be able to in a handful of 693 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 7: sentences say why this is invaluable for America's national interests 694 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 7: and national security? And right now, I think if it 695 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 7: were to happen, I think people would just be confused, 696 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 7: and they would say, why now, why not a month ago, 697 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 7: why not last summer? Why not ten years ago? What 698 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 7: is special about this moment? And at that point you're 699 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 7: just banking on if it's super successful, that justifies itself. 700 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 7: If it's super successful and there are no American deaths, 701 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 7: then that's great. But if there's any casualties at all, 702 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 7: that's where the lack of a clear explanation becomes a 703 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:37,439 Speaker 7: big albatross. 704 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 9: These are difficult decisions, right I don't none of us 705 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 9: envy the president having to make these very difficult decisions. 706 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 9: But regime change through airstrikes is not easy. You have 707 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 9: the aatola hiding three hundred feet undergrounded bunkers, so you 708 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 9: don't even know that a certain amount of bombing is 709 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 9: going to get rid of them, and then you have 710 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 9: to deal with the fact that there are hundreds of 711 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 9: other molas to replace them. I mean, Iran is a 712 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 9: fully fully structure theocracy now after forty years, and it's 713 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 9: not you know, just getting rid of the Ayatola or 714 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 9: a few others won't necessarily need So these are all 715 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 9: difficult decisions. But we trust in President Trump. We trust 716 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 9: and I think the base completely trusts him. As you 717 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 9: said eloquently, he's earned this trust. 718 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, well said. 719 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 3: And by the way, today at three pm, CIA Director 720 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 3: John Ratcliffe is set to join Secretary of State Marco 721 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 3: Rubio for a classified. 722 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 4: Briefing on Iran. 723 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 3: All right, there you go, Caine, well done, My friend Blake, 724 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 3: well done in Phoenix. 725 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 4: We'll see you guys tomorrow. 726 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 3: Tonight's the State of the Union and we'll be streaming 727 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 3: it on Charlie kirkshow Channels. 728 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 4: Check us out there. 729 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 7: For more on many of these stories and news you 730 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 7: can trust, go to charliekirk dot com.
