The Fauci Diaries will go down as one 30 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 3: of the most embarrassing falls from grace if he had 31 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 3: any at least with half the country he did that 32 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 3: anybody has seen in recent memory. Now, who do we 33 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 3: have to thank for this? Well, it turns out we 34 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 3: have Secretary Kennedy. 35 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 2: That's right. 36 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 3: RFK Junior found these diaries in about eight servers scattered 37 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 3: across eight service They go back years, by the way, 38 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 3: there's a ton there. And he found them and then 39 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 3: he gave them to Senator Rand Paul and Senator Ron Johnson, 40 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 3: both friends, both great patriots that are pushing hard. And 41 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 3: I mean nobody has been quite like Senator Ran Paul. 42 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 3: He has been a dog with a bone to expose 43 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 3: Anthony Fauci, because I think sometimes with people like doctor Fauci, 44 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 3: you just have this sense that something's pretty off. And 45 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 3: I think a lot of us did, a lot of 46 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 3: you and this audience did, and it turns out those 47 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 3: suspicions were correct. He was a fame seeking incompetent with 48 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 3: sometimes sinister and malevolent aims to cover his own rear. 49 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 3: And that has become increasingly clear as we dive further 50 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: and further into these diary entries. Now while much noise 51 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 3: is being made about his contradictions on school closures and 52 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 3: restaurants and bar closures, on the origin of the COVID virus, 53 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 3: and so much else, and obviously I think driving most 54 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: of this was his desire to cover up the fact 55 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 3: that he was funding gain a function research at the 56 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 3: Wuhan Institute of Rology. So that's the driving motivator for 57 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: this man, not to save lives. And that's all very 58 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 3: very I would say, clear from a casual reading of 59 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 3: the text. But what more, And this is something not 60 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: many people are making the point. I actually caught this 61 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 3: thanks to our friend Cain over as Citizen Free Press. 62 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 3: He had posted jesse Waters monologue from last night. At 63 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 3: the very tale end, Jesse makes a parting comment that 64 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: says he delayed the approval of the vaccine so that 65 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 3: it didn't give President Trump a boost for the twenty 66 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 3: twenty election. Now he didn't support that claim with any evidence, 67 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 3: so I was skeptical. But I was chatting back and 68 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 3: forth with Caine this morning, and man, did he put 69 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 3: me in the right direction? Because this is an absolute 70 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 3: treasure trove. And it's a sub stack authored by a 71 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 3: guy named jess Heart. There it is, and it says 72 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 3: new Fauci revelation. He slowly rolled the VACS with backroom 73 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 3: dealing so Trump wouldn't get his quote unquote October surprise. 74 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: And what this says in this we're going to go 75 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 3: through in detail here, is that it is apparent, through 76 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 3: about five months of diary entries that Anthony Fauci was 77 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 3: not only well aware of the fact that an approved vaccine. 78 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 3: Think what you will about the vaccine, by the way, 79 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 3: you don't have to support the vaccine, but at that 80 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 3: time nobody knew if it was going to be good 81 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 3: or bad. It was definitely going to be politically advantageous 82 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 3: to President Trump to have an approved vaccine ahead of 83 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 3: the twenty twenty election. So five months of him being 84 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 3: very well aware of the fact that this was going 85 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 3: to benefit the president if it got approved, and what 86 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 3: we see revealed in these diary entries is yet another 87 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 3: example of how the deep state conspired to block President 88 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 3: Trump to steal the twenty twenty election. Now we know 89 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 3: about mail in ballots, we know about signature verification easy, 90 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: we know about dropbox galore all over the place, funded 91 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 3: by Zuckerberg and others. But this has been something that 92 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 3: I remember very well. I remember after the election a 93 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 3: couple days and then all of a sudden, Pfizer gets 94 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 3: approval and it's a big deal, and I remember thinking, 95 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 3: why on earth did they wait until after the election. 96 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 2: I mean, I knew why. 97 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 3: But now we have documentation from Anthony Fauci's own diary 98 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 3: that explains what happened. So there's a number of players 99 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 3: in this story, and we're going to go through them 100 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 3: as we go. But namely, you got the FDA Commissioner. 101 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 3: You've got who's Stephen Hahn. You've got Peter Marx, who's 102 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 3: the director of the FDA center that reviews vaccines. You've 103 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 3: got alex Ar, Secretary of Health and Human Services. You've 104 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 3: got Larry Horowitz, who's a shadowy character. I can't even 105 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 3: find an image of this guy, but he works closely 106 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 3: worked closely with Speaker Nancy Pelosi in is Fauci's main 107 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 3: source again and again, and of course you got Francis 108 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 3: Collins and Cliff Lane from the NIH director and the 109 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 3: one of Fauci's deputies at AID. 110 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 2: So here's what we know. 111 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 3: Starting in June of twenty twenty, a full five months 112 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 3: before the election. This is a diary entry from doctor Fauci. 113 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 3: It's him becoming disillusioned with Deborah Burks, who is the 114 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 3: White House coronavirus response coordinator, if you'll remember Scarflady. 115 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 2: Here's the quote. 116 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 3: Deb has stated that we should not do clinical trials 117 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 3: since quote I want to see every infective person in 118 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 3: a nursing home get plasma early and on steroids later. 119 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 2: Forget the trial. 120 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 3: We need to do this on EA EUA's, which is 121 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: emergency authorization. She says the same thing about vaccine trials. 122 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 3: Clearly she is trying to provide Trump with his October surprise. 123 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 2: Did you check that? Did you catch that? 124 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 3: This is in June twenty twenty, provide Trump with his 125 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 3: October surprise. I may need to blow the whistle on her. 126 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 3: June twentieth, twenty twenty five months before the election, he's 127 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 3: already framed the acceleration of a vaccine approval process to 128 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 3: ostensibly save lives. Now we know that the vaccine turned 129 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 3: out to be a huge dud and if anything, contributed 130 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 3: to worse health ailments for many people, But at this 131 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 3: point we didn't know that it was objectively a good 132 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 3: thing for the president. Okay, So later, this is the 133 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,679 Speaker 3: next diary entry that's of note from July twenty twenty, 134 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 3: and this is quite interesting. So he's so he's already 135 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 3: expressed his worry about Deborah Berks. Now he's expressing concerns 136 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 3: about Mark Meadow's chief of staff. So he watches Mark 137 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 3: Meadows on television and writes that it is his way 138 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 3: of backing out of a failure and trying to get 139 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 3: an October surprise. Once again, heads up for him trying 140 00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 3: to push an early approval of vaccine. The next day, 141 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: July twenty seventh, Fauci's in the Oval Office briefing Trump 142 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: on therapeutics in vaccine. His note is almost sympathetic, and 143 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,239 Speaker 3: I'm reading straight from Justin. Justin's substack, which you should 144 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 3: all check out. Rational ground. Trump accepted that the vaccine 145 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 3: might not be ready before the elections, but he was 146 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 3: not happy about it. Then on July thirty. First comes 147 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 3: the entry that changes the picture. Okay, it comes from 148 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 3: Nancy Pelosi's office. Important call, says doctor Fauci, Larry Horowitz, 149 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 3: who works closely with Nancy Pelosi. Apparently there was a 150 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 3: meeting at the White House with Steve Minuchin, Mark Meadows, 151 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 3: Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer. Steve and Mark told Nancy 152 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 3: and Chuck that Astrazenica will have a vaccine in September. Oh, 153 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 3: that's before the election, and that it will be given EUA. 154 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 3: Apparently Peter Marx does not know anything about this and 155 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 3: Larry just informed him. So get this a Nancy PELOSIID 156 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 3: is informing the guy who has to approve vaccines. Bottom 157 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 3: line is that they are going to pressure Steve Hahn, 158 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 3: who likely will cave to the idea of an EUA 159 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 3: to issue one, even though Peter has serious. 160 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 2: Issues with this. 161 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 3: Clearly, this is politically driven and will be a ploy 162 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 3: for Trump to get re elected. Diary entry July thirty, first, 163 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 3: twenty twenty. Anthony Fauci was backroom dealing to block the 164 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 3: reelection of President Trump by delaying the vaccine. And if 165 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 3: it was just there, that would be enough. But there's more. 166 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 3: Diary posts and entries that prove this point. So we 167 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 3: just got done with a July twenty, July thirty first post, right, 168 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 3: and a week later, August seventh, twenty twenty, there's a 169 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 3: phone call, and, as Justin Hart explains it beautifully, this 170 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 3: is the entry the entire story turns on. I think 171 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 3: that's a really great way to put it. 172 00:09:59,120 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 2: He says. 173 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 3: Call from Larry Horowitz. Again, this is the person that 174 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 3: works closely with Nancy Pelosi. He had warned me a 175 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 3: few days ago about Meadows trying to pressure Han and 176 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 3: Marx to grant Ua. So just really quick, let's tell 177 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 3: their names again. Peter Marx is director of the fdaa 178 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: center that reviews vaccines. Okay, Peter Marx, that's him right there. 179 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 3: And then you've got Stephen Hahn, who's the FDA commissioner. 180 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 3: It's Mark's boss. And then Mark Meadows. We all know 181 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 3: Mark Meadow's chief of staff. So this is these are 182 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 3: the players involved. Han and Marx to grant Ua, which 183 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 3: is emergency use of authorization prematurely to vaccines, likely astra 184 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 3: Zenica in time for the election. I called, so again 185 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: he's this is doctor Fauci referencing the election. I called 186 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 3: Peter Marx a couple of days ago together with Collins 187 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 3: and Lane, member and IH Director Francis Collins and Lane 188 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 3: and explain that we would back him if he holds 189 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 3: the line, we would back him if he denies Trump. 190 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 3: His October surprise, he called the AZ package a hot 191 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 3: mess and definitely not in shape for a EUA. That's 192 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 3: from August seventh, twenty twenty. You've got three of the 193 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 3: most senior scientists in the federal government, that aid Director, 194 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 3: the NIH director in Fauci's deputy. They telephoned the regulators 195 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 3: who would sign the authorization and told them that they 196 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 3: would back him if he held out. Great journalism from 197 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 3: Justin Hart, by the way, so this is fast forward 198 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 3: to October, so there's more emails or more diary entries 199 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 3: throughout August September than On the eighth of October, Horowitz 200 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 3: flags that an FDA official needs support against a hydroxychloroquin 201 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 3: authorization being pushed by Peter Navarro. They didn't like hydroxychlorcord, 202 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 3: remember they called it horse paced, and that Han told 203 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 3: her to hold her decision so he could speak with Meadows. 204 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 3: On the twenty fourth Pfizer CEO, remember him. Albert Burla 205 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,239 Speaker 3: calls Fauci worried that Astra Zeneca will get an authorization 206 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 3: before the other companies finish their trials. On the twenty six, 207 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 3: after the FDA authorizes convalescent plasma, Fauci writes that Han 208 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 3: likely cave to Meadows, who is looking for good news 209 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 3: before the election. There seems to be one player in 210 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 3: this story that is hyper fixated on the upcoming election, 211 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 3: and that is doctor Anthony Fauci. October twenty ninth, There 212 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 3: were just five days out. Now this this is his 213 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 3: diar entry. Some potentially nefarious stuff going on. The FDA 214 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 3: career scientists are hesitant to grant emergency Youth use authorization 215 00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,080 Speaker 3: to Lilly's and Regeneron's MAB based on the current day. 216 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 3: Alex Azar is really pushing them and furious because he 217 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 3: thinks FDA is slow walking the process so as to 218 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 3: not have it out before the election in five days. Clearly, 219 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 3: alex wants to please Potus so that they can say 220 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 3: that they have a breakthrough right before the election. He 221 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 3: puts this in all bold. We encourage Francis to support 222 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 3: career scientists at FDA, since they do not want to 223 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 3: rush this through. Okay, they do not want to rush 224 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 3: this through. That would be all well and good if 225 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 3: that's where the story ended. Okay, you're just a principled 226 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 3: scientist that doesn't want to rush through an emergency use authorization. 227 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 3: But then fast forward to November twenty first, Trump lost 228 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 3: air quotes and Pfizer announces it's ninety five percent efficacy 229 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 3: result on November ninth, six days after the election, and 230 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: a little over two weeks later, the same back channel 231 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 3: it's been feeding Fauci all this information, which is of 232 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:08,599 Speaker 3: course Nancy Pelosi's Larry Horowitz calls and tells Fauci the 233 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 3: following got called from Larry Horowitz tonight telling me that 234 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 3: Peter Marks told him that Trump called up Steve Han 235 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 3: today and told him that alex Azar said that Steve 236 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 3: lost the lost Potus the election by holding up the 237 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 3: news about Pfizer vaccine. Well, you can imagine why President Trump. 238 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 2: Might think that. 239 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 3: Pfizer announced six days after the election. Trump was cursing 240 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 3: Steve on the phone and then hung up. Steve did 241 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 3: not know if he was going to get fired, and 242 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 3: told this to Peter, who called up Larry still not sure, 243 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 3: what's going to happen, that's right. This is the story 244 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 3: of how doctor Anthony Fauci back channeled, weighed in with 245 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 3: the top scientists at the FDA and HHS, and even 246 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 3: took stabs at Deborah Burke's scarf lady to block the 247 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 3: emergency use authorization of the astrazenica vaccine and in so 248 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 3: doing knowingly worked against President Trump's reelection hopes. This is 249 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 3: doctor Anthony Fauci. Not only is he a famehoord. Not 250 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 3: only was he absolutely obsessed with his own press clippings. 251 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 3: Not only was he obsessed with celebrities wearing Fauci shirts 252 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 3: and being sainted through the legacy media. Not only was 253 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 3: he obsessed with funding gain of function research in China 254 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 3: and then covering it up. The man very well could 255 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 3: have cost President Trump the twenty twenty election single handedly. 256 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 3: This is the real story of doctor Anthony Fauci, a sinister, lying, 257 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 3: fame hungry, and competent, a bureaucrat that put his thumb 258 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 3: on the scales of the twenty twenty election, and we all, 259 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 3: unfortunately saw the devastation caused by that. More Americans are 260 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: starting to ask an important question, why is it so 261 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 3: difficult to get access to medications you may already know 262 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 3: you need.

It's good to see you. 279 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 3: Some might be some might be surprised to see a 280 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 3: New York Times journalist on the Charlie Kirk Show, but 281 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 3: for those who didn't know and don't know you and 282 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 3: Charlie were actually friends, and you guys knew each other 283 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 3: pretty well. I actually know you because of Charlie. So 284 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 3: maybe that's a good place to start, because I know 285 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 3: you've mentioned it in your book Regime Change Inside the 286 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 3: Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump. But you talk about Charlie 287 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 3: in this book. Why don't we start there. 288 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 4: Well, I got to know Charlie in the way that 289 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 4: reporters get to know people. You know, you want to 290 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 4: talk to as wide a range of people as you can, 291 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 4: and I just found Charlie to be I mean I 292 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 4: met Charlie for the first time in twenty seventeen, so 293 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 4: almost ten years ago, and I got to know him 294 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 4: through Trump's first term, as he was very young building 295 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 4: this organization that at the time not that many people 296 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 4: had heard of, but it started to really build momentum, 297 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 4: and it was very obvious to me straight away a 298 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 4: that he was a very sophisticated and smart operator. I mean, 299 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 4: he'd already developed a friendship with Donald Trump Junior, and 300 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 4: he was starting to build at the time a very 301 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 4: close relationship with the President. And so one thing you 302 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 4: sort of try to figure out when you're reporting on 303 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 4: people who are activist leaders movement leaders, is are they 304 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 4: running an organization that is essentially an AstroTurf organization, because 305 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 4: there's a lot of people who were sort of put 306 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 4: out there as well, this person is a leader, this 307 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 4: person leads a movement, and you scratch a little bit 308 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 4: under the surface and actually, no, it turns out this 309 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 4: whole thing is sort of ginned up with algorithms and 310 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 4: it's fake. You could see very quickly and very clearly 311 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 4: that that was not the case with Charlie Kirk. He 312 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 4: had really huge these events that the crowds at these events, 313 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 4: you can't fake that. And it was very obvious to 314 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 4: me that he was not just building himself as an 315 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 4: activist leader, as a movement leader, as an advisor to 316 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 4: the president, as a fundraiser. But in the view of 317 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 4: I could tell you quite a few people around Trump, 318 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,640 Speaker 4: Kirk had a choice. They thought he was either going 319 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 4: to be the heir to Rush Limbaugh or potentially the 320 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 4: Republican nominee for president in a future cycle. And I 321 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:40,959 Speaker 4: happened to share that view. And you know, obviously we 322 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 4: will never know, but I certainly had shared that had 323 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 4: strongly felt that by you know, twenty twenty two, twenty 324 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 4: twenty three. 325 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 3: And you tell the story of inside the White House 326 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 3: when the news broke of what happened to Charlie, and 327 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 3: it's pretty excruciating. Candidly, I don't want to spend too 328 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 3: much time on it, but if you have an anecdote, 329 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 3: we'd love to hear it. 330 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, it's hard to relive it. We have in 331 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 4: the book. What we try to describe in the book 332 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 4: is the effect that Charlie's death had on the President 333 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 4: of the United States and the people around him. He's 334 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 4: in a circle. 335 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 2: And we have. 336 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 4: A scene in the book where the President learns about 337 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 4: Charlie's death and he actually learns about it from his son, Baron, 338 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 4: who was a huge fan of Charlie's, and he phoned 339 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 4: the president. He was very distressed, very distraught, and the 340 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 4: President was trying to absorb this news but also trying 341 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 4: to comfort his son. And people who are in the 342 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 4: West Wing that day describe it almost like it was 343 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 4: just a zombie land in the sense that people would 344 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 4: just in a state of shock. Charlie Kirk was considered 345 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 4: a member of the family by many of these people. 346 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 4: And so we just describe. You know, again, I don't 347 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 4: want to belabor it too much with you, but you know, 348 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 4: we have an inside in the book into how they 349 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 4: regathered themselves at that moment got together. Of course, they 350 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 4: still didn't know who had done this or any of 351 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 4: the details. The vice president was in a state of 352 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 4: acute distress. He credits Jade Vance credits Charlie Kirk more 353 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 4: than anyone with his political career. I mean, I think 354 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 4: it's an objective fact that without Charlie Kirk, Jade Vance 355 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 4: would not be United States Senator, he would not be 356 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 4: Vice President of the United States. Charlie Kirk was the 357 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 4: one who vouched for Jadie Vance to the Trump family 358 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 4: initially when they were very skeptical about one who had 359 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,239 Speaker 4: a history as an ever Trumper, who had said all 360 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 4: sorts of things about Donald Trump in early twenty twenty one, 361 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 4: Charlie Kirk was, I would say, of all the people, 362 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 4: him and Don Jr. But really it was Charlie Kirk 363 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,479 Speaker 4: vouching for JD. Vance that established him within that circle. 364 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 4: And then of course he had a huge role in 365 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 4: helping him become vice president. So you know, were describing 366 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 4: the book, the emotions that the Vice President was going through, 367 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 4: but also the decision he made very quickly to take 368 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 4: Air Force two to collect Charlie's casket, to comfort his family, 369 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 4: to comfort Erica, and that whole sequence of events, which 370 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,479 Speaker 4: of course you're very intimately familiar with. 371 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 3: Andrew I can tell you he comforted all of us. 372 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 3: I mean I was on that flight as well. And 373 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 3: he came back, I mean he sat up with Erica 374 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 3: and Husha, but he came back and he talked to 375 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 3: us too, and you could tell he was in a 376 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 3: bad way like we all were, but he on a 377 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 3: brave face and you know, put his hand on our shoulders. 378 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,719 Speaker 2: And I'll never forget it. I'll never forget it. 379 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 3: On the topic of JD, there's been a lot made 380 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 3: of these scenes in your book from inside the Situation Room. 381 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 3: You know, there's a scene with Benjamin Nett Yahoo pitching 382 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 3: some of the intel leading up to the Iran War. 383 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 3: You see JD's posture as being pretty skeptical, and I 384 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 3: would say that there was a lot of members that 385 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 3: were pretty skeptical. I would say, I guess my question 386 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 3: is separate fact from fiction when it comes to the 387 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 3: admin's reception of that intel the players, I mean, how 388 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 3: skeptical were they and why do if in your estimation, 389 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 3: why was the decision to go in in the second 390 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 3: strikes made by the president. 391 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 4: Well, it's nuanced, right, even the skepticism from the US intelligence. 392 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 4: Just to take a backward step. In the book, we 393 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 4: describe net Yahoo this a pretty astonishing meeting where he 394 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 4: comes to the White House situation room and essentially pictures 395 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 4: President Trump on his plan for a regime change war 396 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 4: with Iran, and he's got you know, on the screen 397 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 4: behind him, he's got the head of Masad Israeli generals, 398 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 4: and he lays out scenarios including the Kurds coming across 399 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 4: helping to overthrow the regime, and a video montage which 400 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 4: has potential replacement leaders in Iran, including Rezapolafi who's the 401 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 4: son of the last shah. So they absorb all of 402 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 4: this and overnight the CIA does an analysis on it, 403 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 4: and the skepticism was in a very I wouldn't say narrow, 404 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 4: because it's pretty pretty down important, But it wasn't like 405 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 4: they said, oh, we can't achieve any of these objectives. 406 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 4: We can't degrade or dismantle all the ballistic missiles we 407 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 4: can't do anything to suppress Around's defense industrial base. The 408 00:24:54,960 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 4: really hardcore skepticism concerned the regime change scenarios, And I'll 409 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 4: tell you everyone on the Trump team basically was skeptical 410 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 4: about this. Vance happened to be the one who vocalized 411 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 4: that most aggressively with Trump, but others did too at 412 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 4: different times, and particularly that intelligence Ratcliffe and Rubio expressed 413 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 4: skepticism to present Trump about him. Look, people will debate 414 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 4: about how and why we went to war, but every 415 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 4: piece of reporting I've done, and everyone I've talked to 416 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 4: in the inner circle, and I think Trump has made 417 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 4: this clear in different ways, maybe less bluntly publicly, is 418 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 4: that he had a feeling, he had a gut feeling 419 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 4: that this Iranian regime would collapse quickly, and even if 420 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 4: it wasn't going to end up in regime change, he 421 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 4: thought it would. He thought it was worthwhile going ahead 422 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 4: with this mission, even with the more limited objectives of 423 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 4: trying to degrade and dismantle both their nuclear program and 424 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 4: their ballistic missile program. So that was his thinking going in. 425 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 4: And you know, he did hear a range of skeptical views, 426 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 4: but I will say not expressed to him in a 427 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 4: particularly as ful way, with the exception of jdfants. 428 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think that stands out from your reporting. Actually, 429 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 3: and I remember the the portion about Marco Rubio saying, 430 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 3: I mean you laid it out in four objectives, right, 431 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 3: degrading their military capacity, getting a nuclear program offline, all 432 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 3: the way up to regime change. And I think Rubio 433 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 3: was like, if your if your goal is to get 434 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 3: the first two, then fine, if your goal is to 435 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 3: get the other two, namely regime change, like the Intel's bunk. 436 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 3: And I thought that was a really interesting I mean, 437 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 3: a lot of people had issues with bbbing in the 438 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 3: situation room. I share those A lot of people had 439 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: issues with a number of things from that story, but 440 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 3: I think it was a really interesting look inside the 441 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 3: room about how varied the opinions were and how actually 442 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 3: how sober minded. 443 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 2: Many of them were, including JD including Marco. 444 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 3: All Right, so I want to talk about the Iran 445 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 3: or the the this MoU because I do think that 446 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: there is this perception. I don't think it's fair that 447 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 3: basically JD Vance has been you know, going rogue and 448 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 3: he's working against the president's interests and you see this 449 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 3: narrative forming online. I know you've mentioned you've talked about 450 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 3: this before, but and I know that you say it's false, 451 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 3: but let's get into detail. Explain how you know that 452 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 3: the peace proposal working towards a peace plan was President 453 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 3: Trump's direct order to jd Vance and what changed in 454 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 3: the President's thinking to get him from a war posture 455 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 3: more towards a peace posture. 456 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I don't I heard this. I didn't 457 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 4: really realize this was much of a narrative until I 458 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 4: was actually asked this question on a different podcast, and 459 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 4: it was so absurd. I mean, I just honestly, I 460 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 4: never even really heard anyone say this, because no one 461 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 4: who actually knows what's going on, who's working in the 462 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 4: administration at senior level, has ever suggested that to me. 463 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 4: I mean, President Trump asked jd Vance, Steve Wikoff, and 464 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,639 Speaker 4: Jared Kushna to negotiate with the Iranians. Now that's not 465 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 4: to say that Trump thinks. Trump has been at different 466 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 4: times very skeptical of whether they would succeed or not, 467 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 4: but that's a separate question from whether he asked them 468 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 4: to do it. He just did. I mean, I don't 469 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 4: even know what to tell people who are saying that, 470 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 4: and do they have any evidence? I mean, what are 471 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 4: they proposing as evidence that this is a rogue situation. 472 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, listen, Jonathan, you know, it's all a 473 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:32,439 Speaker 3: proxy war about twenty twenty eight, right. The more hawkish crowd, 474 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 3: it's very skeptical about JD and the I think you. 475 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 2: Know, they prefer Rubio. 476 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 3: So it's all a proxy war for twenty twenty eight, right, 477 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 3: And they want to paint JD as some sort of 478 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 3: non pragmatic dove who's naive to the machinations of the 479 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 3: Iranian regime. 480 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 2: I mean, that's what it is. 481 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 3: But I think JD has gone into these negotiations very 482 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: aware that they could back out at any time and 483 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 3: that they might have to restart military kinetic operations, which 484 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 3: they've had to do. But once again we're in a 485 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 3: position where we're seeing the push towards an MU. You 486 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,959 Speaker 3: saw President Trump this morning with Lindsey Graham and his 487 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 3: funeral saying, you know, Lindsay was pushing for a peace 488 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 3: plan with Iran. He's like, Lindsay loved war, but even 489 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 3: he was pushing I mean that's what he said. Said 490 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 3: by the end, so I mean, basically your point. There's 491 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 3: two narratives really, that JD went rogue with this peace 492 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 3: plan or that he was you know, being naive something 493 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 3: along those lines, and that Trump got dog walked into 494 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 3: Iran by Israel. Those are the two i think competing 495 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 3: narratives that you see it both the start of this 496 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 3: this operation and in the attempt to conclude it. Right, 497 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 3: So maybe let's go back to the first. At the start, 498 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 3: you know, obviously it's clear net Yahoo was in the 499 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 3: situation room. Did Trump get you know, pushed into this 500 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 3: war by Israel? 501 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 4: Again, it's more complicated. These are these nice clean narratives, 502 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 4: they just they're just not accurate. It's it's much more nuanced. Yes, 503 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 4: Netnahu made a very aggressive campaign, as everyone knows, over 504 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 4: many many months to try to bring America into this war. 505 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 4: But actually the reality, you could talk to anyone in 506 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 4: Trump's in the circle, literally anyone, talk to anyone who 507 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 4: was actually there who saw these decisions get made. Donald 508 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 4: Trump himself was more hawkish about Iran than just about 509 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 4: anyone on his team I think actually more than anyone 510 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 4: on his team. The closest probably was Pete xth And 511 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 4: remember Trump has a long history of this. People choose 512 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 4: not to see it, and that's their prerogative. But if 513 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 4: you choose to actually just deal with objectively with what 514 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 4: Trump is his long record on Iran A He's been 515 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 4: talking about Iran for a very long time, very long time, 516 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 4: even before he went into politics. In the first term, 517 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 4: there were senior advisers that he had who counseled him 518 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 4: to stay in the jcpoa Obama's nuclear deal with Iran. 519 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 4: Trump ignored their advice and pulled out of the deal. 520 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 4: That was a hawkish move. And then again later in 521 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 4: his term January twenty twenty, there were men any people 522 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 4: who thought it was unwise to order the killing of 523 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 4: Custom Solamani, the top Iranian general. Trump went ahead with 524 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 4: it and did it anyway. And then in his years 525 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 4: out of power, he was briefed by the FBI that 526 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 4: the Iranians were trying to kill him, so that had 527 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 4: an effect. Again, He's also said, you know, stay out 528 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 4: of wars and you can find what you want in 529 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 4: Donald Trump's rhetoric. I fully concede that, of course, but 530 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 4: he does have a very hawkish record with Iran specifically, 531 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 4: so it was more complicated than that, and Ultimately, Donald 532 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 4: Trump decided to go into this war. He made the decision, 533 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 4: and a skeptical case was put to him, most aggressively 534 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 4: by JD. Vance, but in certain more narrow respects by 535 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 4: others too. 536 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 3: So let's go into everybody wants to talk about twenty 537 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 3: twenty eight horse race. We've probably given it too much 538 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 3: attention on this show. Let's I know your book is 539 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 3: about the first year, but what can you glean from 540 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 3: that first year as we head into the midterms? What 541 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 3: is the mood inside this White House? What are they thinking? 542 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 3: What are the strategies that you expect them to employ 543 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 3: heading into November? Are they worried? Are they frustrated? Are 544 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 3: they confident? What's the mood? 545 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 4: I mean, they're obviously worried. I mean that these are 546 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 4: smart political operators, and they're immersed in data and they 547 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 4: can see what everyone else can see, which is the 548 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 4: president has a low approval rating. Presidents always their party 549 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 4: always tends to history shows they tend to perform, not always, 550 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 4: but almost always, tend to underperform in midterm elections. So 551 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 4: all of those factors, and then of course cost of living. 552 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 4: You know, I could just rehearse the listening, but you've 553 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 4: heard it. The Iran Wars certainly hasn't helped, but to 554 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 4: the extent that they're hopeful, optimistic, in some cases more confident. 555 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 4: It's for a couple of reasons. Number one, the Senate 556 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 4: map is very, very favorable to Republicans, and a lot 557 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 4: of these races that Democrats are talking about winning, they're tough. 558 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 4: I mean, you tell me what the layup is in 559 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 4: the Senate for Democrats. I can't tell you what it is. 560 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 4: I can't tell you what the layup is. Maine, Yes, 561 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 4: I get it. Democrats generally do well in Maine. But 562 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 4: Susan Collins has her own brand there. She's a very 563 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 4: formidable candidate. Ohio's a red state. I understand they think 564 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 4: they have a strong candidate there, but it's a red state. 565 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 4: That's a hard win iowas a red state. These are 566 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 4: not like slam dunks for the Democrats. So that's one thing. 567 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 4: And then the other thing is in the House. Look, 568 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 4: it's a huge uphill climb took for the Republicans to 569 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 4: hold the House. They all understand that. But the effort 570 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 4: by James Blair and others to redraw the maps has 571 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 4: definitely helped them. The structural advantages are definitely on their side, 572 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 4: and they've got here's the other thing that people aren't 573 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 4: really talking about. I think nearly enough for the first 574 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 4: time in my memory, the Republicans have an overwhelming financial advantage, 575 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 4: and a lot of it is because of these the 576 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 4: shift in Silicon Valley and the crypto money, and the 577 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,239 Speaker 4: changing landscape in the Donu community, which I think is 578 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 4: really under indexed. So you can tell a story where 579 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 4: things are much more favorable to them, even though the 580 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,760 Speaker 4: overall environment is pretty terrible. 581 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 3: Well, I think that's a really fair telling of events there. 582 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 3: Jonathan Swan, New York Times Reporter, author of the new 583 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:30,320 Speaker 3: book Regime Change. And you know that title, man, given 584 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 3: what's happened in Iran is almost freaky, Jonathan. And by 585 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 3: the way, that's those are the marching orders. Get gas 586 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,439 Speaker 3: under four, get oil prices down, and wrap up that war, 587 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 3: because that's the big drag. If we could do that, 588 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 3: a lot of things open up. Jonathan Swan, thank you, thank. 589 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 2: You for your time. 590 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 4: Thanks so much for having me. 591 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 3: If you could go back in time and buy oil 592 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 3: before the world relied on it, would you, of course 593 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 3: you would anybody would, so why aren't you buying silver 594 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 3: right now? The people who recognized oil early didn't just 595 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,240 Speaker 3: make money, They got ahead of one of the biggest 596 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 3: economic shifts in history, and today a similar opportunity is 597 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 3: unfolding with silver. Silver is more than a precious metal. 598 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 3: It's a critical resource used in solar panels, electric vehicles, 599 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,840 Speaker 3: defend systems AI infrastructure, in the massive data centers powering 600 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 3: that digital world. While demand keeps growing, it's still affordable 601 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,879 Speaker 3: enough that the average American can start accumulating it right now. 602 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 3: That's why investors are turning to silver to protect against 603 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 3: inflation and to own one of the world's most important 604 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 3: strategic resources. Don't be the person who looks back in 605 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 3: ten years and says I saw it coming, I just 606 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 3: didn't act.

Our next guest needs no introduction to 610 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 3: this audience, and that of course, is Sean Davis, CEO 611 00:35:55,520 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 3: and co founder of The Federalist, an Amazing, Amazing news institution, analysis, 612 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 3: opinion and reporting Sean, Welcome back to the show, my friend. 613 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 3: I couldn't help but notice you're rather in pure Sean 614 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 3: Davis fashion. You're very reserved tweet this morning railing against 615 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 3: the neo cons and I think that's a good place 616 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 3: to start. We were originally planning to talk about Fauci, 617 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 3: but when I saw this tweet, I was like, Okay, 618 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 3: we got to start there. So let me read the 619 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 3: few first few sentences here because it's a long tweet. 620 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 3: It is inarguable that the war in Iran is a 621 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 3: massive drag on Trump's numbers, as well as those of 622 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 3: the Republican Party heading into November. This is largely driven 623 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 3: by consistently high gas prices, which also drive up the 624 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 3: price of everything else. Trump obviously knows this, which is 625 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 3: why he's been searching for an off rent for months. 626 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 3: He knows he was elected to get gas prices down 627 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,320 Speaker 3: in the economy and shape, which he did until the 628 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 3: war jammed up the gears. But a major problem for 629 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 3: Trump's presidency right now is that nearly everyone outside is 630 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 3: inner circles pushing for this war, and this includes the 631 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 3: entirety of the so called conservative pundits who never found 632 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 3: a war they weren't willing to make others fight and 633 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 3: pay for it. Also hates Trump and especially Vance, and 634 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 3: sees the war's negative effects on his popularity is the 635 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 3: secondary benefit of the war they've been salivating over four 636 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 3: for decades. To them, his declining numbers are a feature, 637 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 3: not a bug. 638 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 2: What do you mean by that? 639 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, So let's go back a little bit in time 640 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 5: to twenty sixteen. There was a very infamous magazine article 641 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 5: and the cover set against Trump, and it was signed 642 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:36,240 Speaker 5: by a bunch of so called conservative luminaries. And wouldn't 643 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 5: you know, almost to a person, every person who wrote 644 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 5: in that article against Trump, trying to make sure he 645 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 5: wasn't going to become president. These are the same people 646 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 5: whispering in his ear or shouting from behind microphones now 647 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 5: on television and podcast telling him no, no, no, no, 648 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 5: mister president. Actually, everyone loves this war. It's going really 649 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 5: awesome for you. 650 00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. Also JD. Vance sucks. 651 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 5: We don't want him, but like, just keep doing the war, 652 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 5: mister president. It's like watching Grima Waringtongue give advice to 653 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,319 Speaker 5: King Theod and watching how these neocons constantly try to 654 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 5: manipulate and distort what's going on to get Trump to 655 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 5: do something that's not gonna be good for him, not 656 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 5: gonna be good for America, but it's going to be 657 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 5: great for neocons who just want wars and who want 658 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 5: trumpsm in, MAGA in America First, or whatever you want 659 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 5: to call it, gone forever. And so this is kind 660 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 5: of just like my plea, mister President, understand that the 661 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 5: people trying to push you into expanding this war, getting 662 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 5: into a ground combat, these people do not have your 663 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 5: best interests at heart, and to the extent that the 664 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 5: advice they give you hurts you, they are fine with that. 665 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 3: It sort of reminds me of the Empire strikes back. 666 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 2: Right. 667 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 3: You've got Trump leads this takeover of the GOP, a 668 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 3: hostile takeover the GOP, bends the entire movement and popular 669 00:38:55,840 --> 00:39:01,399 Speaker 3: will to his will. And now there's opportunity that they've 670 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 3: seen to scurry back in and get the president's ear 671 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,720 Speaker 3: win the influence of the presidency and Trump two point zero. 672 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 3: And they really don't care if it hurts President Trump. 673 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 3: And I think that's the key point here is I 674 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 3: agree with you these voices. They really don't care what 675 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,320 Speaker 3: happens to the coalition that won him the White House, 676 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 3: because in their mind, the conservative movem would be better 677 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 3: off if it didn't have Maggot to deal with. If 678 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 3: they could just get rid of these pesky populist America 679 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 3: First policies that have gotten in the way of so 680 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 3: much good K Street lobbying money, then they would be 681 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:37,919 Speaker 3: better off. 682 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 2: And that's what they want. 683 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,880 Speaker 3: And I mean, they would defend let's play Devil's advocate here, Sean. 684 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 3: They would defend their position as principal stands against totalitarian 685 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 3: regime and against the nuclear you know, armed Iran, which 686 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 3: is unacceptable. They would say, now you got to go 687 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 3: the full way where pot committed. What's your answer to 688 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,240 Speaker 3: them is, are as you know what the right next 689 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 3: move is? 690 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, well so I get that. That's the other argument. 691 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 5: I wish people would just be honest about the political 692 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 5: consequences of that. Instead, what we're seeing is them trying 693 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 5: to have their cake and eat it too. 694 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 2: As we have to do that, Sean. 695 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 3: It's not about politics, it's about principle. It's about what's 696 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 3: right and what's wrong. 697 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 2: Sean. You can't right be politically driven, but it. 698 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 5: Is politically driven because the reality is that Iran in 699 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 5: any other sort of desphonic regime, whether it's Iran or 700 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 5: North Korea or whatever, they understand that their survival is 701 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 5: based on having nuclear weapons. That was the lesson of Goodafi, 702 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,479 Speaker 5: who gave up his weapons program during the Iraq War 703 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 5: and who was then removed from power at the past 704 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 5: of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. At that moment, every 705 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 5: tyrant on Earth understood that if we have nuclear weapons, 706 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 5: that's the only thing that saves us. So you have 707 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 5: to acknowledge the long term reality of geopolitics, which is 708 00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 5: that Iran is not trustworthy. It's a completely total mess 709 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 5: of a nation. They are going to try and get 710 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 5: nuclear weapons, regardless of what they say right now. And 711 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 5: so the best hedge, the best way to protect protect 712 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 5: against Iran or any other despotic regime having these nuclear weapons, 713 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 5: is to make sure you have a strong Republican in 714 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 5: power who they're terrified of. This is why they were 715 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 5: trying to build it under Obama. They were building capacity 716 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 5: back up under Biden. And what has happened with this 717 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 5: war right now is that by making it less likely 718 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 5: that Republicans hold Congress, by making it less likely that 719 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 5: a Republican can hold the White House in twenty eight 720 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 5: and thirty two. They are making it more likely that 721 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 5: an Iranian regime under the next Democrat president will be 722 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 5: able to build up and perhaps even deploy nuclear weapons. 723 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 5: And so I get the principled argument. But the problem 724 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:51,479 Speaker 5: with so much of this interventionist neocon nonsense is they're 725 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 5: never thinking past the current move They think, Oh, I'm 726 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 5: going to move the pond here and I'm going to 727 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 5: take this piece, and that's it. 728 00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 2: I've won. 729 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,320 Speaker 5: Nothing that happens after this matters without understanding that, oh, crap, 730 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,320 Speaker 5: I may have just left my king absolutely wide open. 731 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 5: There is a total lack of long term strategic thinking 732 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 5: here that I think is making the situation worse for 733 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 5: America over time. And the reason is that you cannot 734 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,399 Speaker 5: escape politics. Who is in charge matters, and everything you're 735 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 5: doing right now is making it less likely that Republicans 736 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 5: will be in charge and in a position to stop 737 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,240 Speaker 5: despotic and tyrannical regimes like those in I Ran Sun. 738 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 3: I think the interesting part of your analysis, though, as 739 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 3: you said, it's a feature, not a bug. Are you 740 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 3: alleging that they wanted to leave the king totally exposed? 741 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 3: That was the That was part of the move here, 742 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 3: so that they could then say, look, see Trump's policies 743 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 3: are really unpopular. 744 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 2: We got to go back to the old way. 745 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I'm not implying to that or and suggesting that, 746 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 5: I'm going to straight up say it. They want Trump gone, 747 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,879 Speaker 5: and that's part of twenty twenty six. Is a lot 748 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 5: of base of this opposition is actually in the Republican Senate. 749 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 5: You have people there who are sick of Trump. They 750 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 5: want him gone. They want them mag to fever to 751 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 5: break so they can take back over and be in 752 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,279 Speaker 5: charge again and get us people like Mitt Romney or 753 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 5: John McCain running for president again. They want to go 754 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 5: back to being a party of beautiful losers. And so 755 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 5: a lot of what's happening now is about setting the 756 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 5: stage for twenty six and then setting the stage for 757 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 5: twenty eight. They want MAGA and America First and trump 758 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 5: Ism gone so they can take the party back over again. 759 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 3: I hate to say, but you're one hundred percent right. 760 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 3: You're one hundred percent right, and that I mean I 761 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 3: grant that they want to deal with Iran. 762 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 2: The Hawks want to deal with Iran. 763 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 3: They want to take down the regime but they don't 764 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 3: care what it costs. They don't care at all what 765 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 3: it costs. They don't They weren't part of building this coalition. 766 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 3: They didn't have sleepless nights knocking doors and making the argument, 767 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,800 Speaker 3: or in Charlie's case, visiting dozens and dozens of college 768 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 3: campuses and all the videos and the billions of views 769 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 3: trying to pitch this to young people and to this 770 00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 3: new coalition that we build, so they have no skin 771 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 3: in the game. If it falls apart, they just get 772 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 3: to go back to the old way, and that's really depressing. 773 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 2: Hi, folks. 774 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 3: Andrew Colvett here, I'd like to tell you about my 775 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 3: friends over at y Refi.

And he 797 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 3: said absolutely. JD was doing the president's bidding there and 798 00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,720 Speaker 3: it granted based on news of the day. New intel 799 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 3: that comes in the President may fluctuate some, but the 800 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 3: president gets that this needs to be done with and 801 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 3: he gets it for political reasons. As you said, what 802 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,439 Speaker 3: is your advice to this admin right now? What needs 803 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 3: to be focused? 804 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:37,879 Speaker 2: Number one? And number two? Yeah? 805 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 5: So I think the first focus needs you need a 806 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 5: piece deal and you need to get the US out 807 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 5: of there, and the thing that is complicating that is 808 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:47,879 Speaker 5: the economic situation in the Strait there. There's so much 809 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 5: oil that moves through there, but the reality is that 810 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 5: most of that oil, and I understand that we have 811 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 5: a global oil market and spot prices and all that, 812 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 5: the bulk of the oil there is not going to 813 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 5: the UA, It's going to Europe. And so I think 814 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 5: the solution here actually has to deal with getting Europe 815 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 5: to take charge of its own energy and take charge 816 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 5: of its own security situation. America has been the world 817 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 5: policeman for way too long, whether it's doing nuke policing, 818 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,800 Speaker 5: or whether it's having to put bases all over Europe, 819 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 5: or whether it's going to Iraq, or whether it's doing 820 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 5: what it did in Syria or Libya. America can't handle 821 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 5: it anymore. We're stretched too thin and it is long 822 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 5: past time for Europe to take ownership of its own future. Now, 823 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 5: whether that means Europe taking military control of the Straits, 824 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 5: I don't know. Maybe it is in massive a rapid 825 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 5: investment of pipelines along so you can make the straight 826 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 5: no longer necessary. But to me, it is largely a 827 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 5: European problem, which it was when we first went in 828 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 5: at the beginning of the second term to Yemen and 829 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 5: started dealing with the Hoho Thi's there because they were 830 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 5: attacking ships and all that making things difficult. The energy 831 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 5: problem there is actually a European problem, and if we 832 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 5: want to deal with this situation we're having with spot prices, 833 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 5: we need to rapidly expand energy extraction in the US. 834 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,359 Speaker 5: We have more than we need here to support us, 835 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 5: and we should probably be exporting a whole lot less energy, 836 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 5: whether it's a liquid naturalized natural gas or oil. But 837 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:21,439 Speaker 5: this idea that we remain completely dependent because of the 838 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 5: interconnectedness of global markets on the Middle East, that is 839 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,839 Speaker 5: a major major problem. It is a massive weak link 840 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 5: in the chain that simply doesn't need to be there. 841 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 5: So I think that's the law term solution for this. 842 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 3: It strikes me as something where we could put together 843 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 3: a coalition to blockade the straight keep the pressure on, 844 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 3: if that's what we need to do with European allies. 845 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 3: While you said we just do that for a couple 846 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 3: of years while these pipelines get built, and we could, 847 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,839 Speaker 3: we could exist in the detent and gas prices would 848 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:52,239 Speaker 3: come down, and I mean it would. Maybe it's not 849 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:55,400 Speaker 3: the ideal solution but at least it would get rid 850 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,759 Speaker 3: of that choke point through the Strait, and we could 851 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 3: We could probably do that for a couple of years 852 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 3: without huge, huge lift. But you got to make sure 853 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 3: that Europe, you know, pays their fair share. And it 854 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 3: is it does strike me as a little bit like 855 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,719 Speaker 3: we break it, you buy it. But nevertheless, the fact 856 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:13,799 Speaker 3: of the matter is real politic, is that it does 857 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 3: affect them way more than it does us. Sean, I 858 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 3: want to pivot really quickly to Anthony Fauci, because I 859 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,000 Speaker 3: just I've been waiting for this all day. We did 860 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 3: a whole rundown of how he actually slow walked the vaccine, 861 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 3: and it obviously got approved six days after the election. 862 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 3: They Fauci was very aware of the politics there. But 863 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 3: in general, what do you make of the Fauci diaries. 864 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 3: He's been pardoned by Joe Biden's auto pen. I don't 865 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 3: know what the options on the table are, But what 866 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 3: has been the biggest revelation for you when it comes 867 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:45,919 Speaker 3: to these. 868 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 5: I will admit that I was wrong about Anthony Fauci, 869 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 5: and the biggest revelation to me is that he is 870 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 5: a much much bigger demon, a far more narcissistic, nefarious 871 00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,279 Speaker 5: presence in government than even I assumed. And I was 872 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 5: calling for that guy to be fired in April and 873 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:07,760 Speaker 5: May of twenty twenty. So I'm actually shocked, as cynical 874 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,799 Speaker 5: as I am. I'm shocked that he somehow comes off 875 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:15,280 Speaker 5: even more megelo maniacal and more narcissistic in his diary 876 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 5: than I ever assumed. 877 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,280 Speaker 3: You know, there was a one of his diary entries 878 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,319 Speaker 3: dating back to twenty thirteen somebody at the CDC had 879 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,760 Speaker 3: blocked him from doing a Wolf Blitzer interview on CNN, 880 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 3: and he lost it. 881 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 2: He was like, this is terrible. I don't know what's 882 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:29,399 Speaker 2: going on. 883 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 3: They're worried that I'm a rock star, that I'm taking 884 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,279 Speaker 3: away the limelight from them. I mean, and even with 885 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 3: his descriptions of his relationship with President Trump, He's like, 886 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 3: President Trump seems quite fond of me, even though I'm 887 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 3: stealing the limelight from him. This man is you use 888 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:49,359 Speaker 3: the word narcissist. That is actually a very very fair 889 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 3: description of him. And the way he was fawning over 890 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:55,759 Speaker 3: his own press clippings and the love affair, and he's 891 00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 3: talking about how he's the most recognizable and famous man 892 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 3: on the planet. I mean this, this is a six 893 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 3: sick deal with this man who ultimately cost probably cost 894 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 3: President Trump the twenty twenty election. Genuinely, I don't think 895 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,800 Speaker 3: that's overstating it. There was many factors at play, many 896 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 3: you know, deep state actors contributed to that, certainly, but 897 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 3: he with the prominence of the COVID story in twenty twenty, 898 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 3: I think that case is very fair. What do you 899 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 3: make about what we can do about it now with 900 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,480 Speaker 3: this pardon? Is there anything that can I mean ram 901 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 3: Paul saying if he lies in front of Congress again 902 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 3: he's not covered by the pardon, okay, but I guess 903 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 3: short of that, or is he just off the hook? 904 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:36,479 Speaker 2: Is this guy gonna skate? 905 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 5: I don't think he's off the hook at all. The 906 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 5: question is are there any red state attorney's general or 907 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 5: prosecutors who are willing to hold him account to account 908 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 5: for the crimes he did. And again, the Democrats set 909 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,479 Speaker 5: the playbook here. It wasn't enough when they went after 910 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 5: Trump for J six to do it in federal courts. 911 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 5: They also had their people in Georgia in Arizona go 912 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 5: after anyone who is involved. And so I think the 913 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 5: solution for Anthony Fauci here is I guarantee you he 914 00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:09,320 Speaker 5: committed some kind of crime or multiple crimes or conspiracies 915 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 5: across multiple states that we have state attorneys general or 916 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,919 Speaker 5: prosecutors who can go after him for So I don't 917 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 5: know if it's James Uthmyer and Florida, you know, maybe 918 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:24,719 Speaker 5: it's a prosecutor in Tennessee or Texas or Missouri. I 919 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 5: guarantee you he has legal liability in various states, and 920 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:29,840 Speaker 5: I don't think we have to wait for him to 921 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:33,160 Speaker 5: perjure himself before ram Paldemar. I think there are lots 922 00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 5: of avenues for state prosecutors and attorneys general to go 923 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 5: after him for what he did. Demand a psychopath responsible 924 00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:41,440 Speaker 5: for the deaths of million, who is eating dinner with 925 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 5: Jake Tapper while he made you watch your loved ones 926 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 5: die alone in hospitals. 927 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 3: Well, said Sean Davis from the Federalists. God bless you man, 928 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:53,839 Speaker 3: Talk to you soon, Thank you, sir. I had the 929 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 3: honor of a lifetime to call Charlie a friend. And 930 00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 3: what I remember most wasn't just what people saw on stage. 931 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 3: It was what was behind the scenes. That was an 932 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,760 Speaker 3: unwavering commitment to his faith, his love for his family, 933 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 3: and his genuine desire to encourage others to live with 934 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 3: courage and conviction. Charlie believed that following Christ wasn't something 935 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:16,440 Speaker 3: you compartmentalize. 936 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 2: He didn't put it in a box. He lived it 937 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:19,280 Speaker 2: out loud. 938 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,759 Speaker 3: It shaped how he lived, how he served, how he 939 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:26,320 Speaker 3: treated people every single day. Charlie Kirk American Martyr captures 940 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:29,880 Speaker 3: that heart. This documentary isn't just simply about remembering Charlie. 941 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:33,040 Speaker 3: It's an invitation for each of us to ask what 942 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 3: kind of legacy we're building and whether we're willing to 943 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 3: stand firm in our own faith when it's tested. I 944 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,920 Speaker 3: hope that you'll watch it with your family and have 945 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:44,840 Speaker 3: those conversations together.

But uh, that's a 966 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 3: good reminder exactly. 967 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:38,280 Speaker 2: So happy birthday. 968 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,400 Speaker 3: And I thought of you because there's this crazy story 969 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:45,240 Speaker 3: out of Minnesota, which, of course Minnesota has turned into 970 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:51,719 Speaker 3: ground zero for every woke, just ridiculous policy you could imagine. 971 00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 3: And it's called my gender dolls. So these researchers, researchers, 972 00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:00,879 Speaker 3: there's they're activists with a pah next to their name. 973 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:05,479 Speaker 3: At the University of Minnesota, they have been developing these 974 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:09,319 Speaker 3: trans identify trans doll I don't know what even call 975 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,840 Speaker 3: them gender confused dolls. Maybe that's a better way to 976 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:13,920 Speaker 3: put it. I'll just play the clip and we'll go 977 00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:14,319 Speaker 3: from there. 978 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 2: Sat. 979 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 7: Twelve, and I'm excited to talk to you about a 980 00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:19,560 Speaker 7: project we've been working on at the National Center for 981 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 7: Gender Spectrum Health called My Gender Dolls. These dolls were 982 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 7: designed by transgender and gender diverse artists. They are intended 983 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 7: to be a therapeutic tool for transgender and gender diverse 984 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 7: kids to explore how they see themselves or how they'd 985 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,000 Speaker 7: like to see themselves in terms of gender identity and 986 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,319 Speaker 7: gender expression. Along with the choice of bodies that My 987 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 7: Gender Dolls also include genitals. This is important because kids 988 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 7: can learn that all gender identities and gender expressions are 989 00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 7: valid no matter how your body looks. There are lots 990 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 7: of different ways to be a girl, a boy, or 991 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,240 Speaker 7: anywhere along a gender spectrum. 992 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,359 Speaker 3: All right, Chloe, So as somebody that has gone through 993 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 3: this process and come out the other side and now 994 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,760 Speaker 3: advocates against it, how. 995 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:04,880 Speaker 2: Damaging is it? 996 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 3: These are apparently for four to ten year olds. They're 997 00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 3: designed for four year olds. How damaging is it to 998 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 3: a child's psyche to be even talking about their gender 999 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:16,279 Speaker 3: at four years old? 1000 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,479 Speaker 6: I mean, this is something that is bringing a lot 1001 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,760 Speaker 6: of disgust, a lot of shock to a lot of people. 1002 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 6: Rightfully so, because anybody who's saying will recognize that this 1003 00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 6: is a violation of children's innocence to lie to them 1004 00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,480 Speaker 6: about human design, about the way that God made us, 1005 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 6: and then to tell them that they were born in 1006 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,719 Speaker 6: the wrong body. And the only way they can fix 1007 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:38,799 Speaker 6: that is by going through what basically amounts to medical experimentation. 1008 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 6: And as somebody who once was part of the transgender 1009 00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 6: community myself and went through that childhood abuse under the 1010 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,279 Speaker 6: guise of gender affirming care, I know exactly why they 1011 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 6: are targeting children so hard. This is I mean, for one, 1012 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,840 Speaker 6: it's an ideology of people who are I mean, the 1013 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 6: most prominent ideologues are people who are unable to reproduce 1014 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 6: them themselves because they've taken upon these treatments. Some of 1015 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 6: them were young. And so if they can't reproduce, if 1016 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:06,960 Speaker 6: they can't have children of their own to push this 1017 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 6: ideology onto, they're going to target the children of the 1018 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:13,279 Speaker 6: people who are healthy and are able to have kids 1019 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 6: of their own. And what better way to cheat children 1020 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 6: and doctrinate them through the way that they know how 1021 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 6: to learn best, which is through play, through the use 1022 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 6: of adults, and one of the core tenets of transgender 1023 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 6: ideology is that this is an innate condition that transgender 1024 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 6: people cannot help being the way that they are, that 1025 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:32,800 Speaker 6: it's not just mental health issue, and that the earlier 1026 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 6: you catch somebody in attempt to change their sex the better. 1027 00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:37,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's I mean, I think that point can't 1028 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 3: be underscored enough. That these are children that don't know 1029 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 3: that the tooth Fairy isn't real, or that the Easter 1030 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:49,479 Speaker 3: Bunny isn't real, and they are being basically handed over 1031 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:53,840 Speaker 3: a grooming tool that tells them that their body is wrong, 1032 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 3: that God made them in the wrong body, and that 1033 00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,120 Speaker 3: it's okay if they want to be a girl and 1034 00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:03,880 Speaker 3: they're boy or or vice versa. That is grooming behavior. 1035 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:08,000 Speaker 3: That is predatory behavior. And what makes it all the 1036 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,759 Speaker 3: more obscene to me is that these are researchers who 1037 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 3: are receiving tax payer funded grants to advance something that 1038 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 3: is this abusive and harmful to little kids, and they're 1039 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 3: dressing it up as if they say, what do they say, 1040 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 3: we're making gender fun. Now you're making it sick, and 1041 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 3: you're actually abusing little kids. 1042 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 2: I have I can't say that enough. 1043 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 3: That these kids are not in any position to be 1044 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,400 Speaker 3: learning or talking about this stuff. They should be having 1045 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 3: fun and playing outside and touching grass. This is where 1046 00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:44,440 Speaker 3: it gets even more nefarious. 1047 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 2: Though. 1048 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 3: Tim Waltz has a role to play in this. He's 1049 00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 3: famously pushed pro transgender policies in Minnesota, but he was 1050 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 3: bestowed the same institute. He was bestowed with the institute's 1051 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 3: inaugural Distinguished se Sexual Engender Health Champion Award in twenty 1052 00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 3: twenty three, a title they created just for him. We've 1053 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 3: got a picture of him with that accepting the reward 1054 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:12,400 Speaker 3: one seventy nine. You can see this is him posing 1055 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 3: for an award from these people. And by the way, 1056 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,480 Speaker 3: one of the people that is the creators of this 1057 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 3: doll is pictured in that, and that would be Nick Rider, 1058 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 3: who is a PhD, LP and LP of my gender doll. 1059 00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 3: So they're trying to monetize this now. And if you 1060 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 3: look at this person, I guess it's a they them 1061 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:39,840 Speaker 3: their bio. It's really really sick. So this is a 1062 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 3: sociologist with psychologist rather at the Eli Coleman Institute for 1063 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 3: Sexual and Gender Health, and this their professional interests are 1064 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:55,640 Speaker 3: in areas of intersectionality, improving very improving various health disparities, 1065 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 3: sexual health and pleasure, which is ironic because a lot 1066 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:03,720 Speaker 3: of kids get this procedure done or transfer surgeries, they 1067 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 3: can no longer experience sexual pleasure when they're older. Decolonizing 1068 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 3: healing justice, whatever that means, systems change in social justice advocacy. Okay, 1069 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 3: so this is one of the inventors of this. That 1070 00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 3: is the description of an activist who is cloaked in 1071 00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 3: language of academia and goes by they them their's pronouns chloe. 1072 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:33,200 Speaker 3: In your experience, how much of the science around this 1073 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:37,919 Speaker 3: is basically just activism. It's a warped ideology. I mean, 1074 00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:40,120 Speaker 3: how many of the people that you've seen that advocate 1075 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 3: advocate for this stuff have totally perverse personal lives and 1076 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 3: weird fixations, and they cloak it in this academic language. 1077 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 6: I think on every single level, physically, emotionally, psychologically, to 1078 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 6: do this to any child, to do this to anybody 1079 00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 6: who is confused about their sex, and to refuse to 1080 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 6: get them proper counsel and instead push them down this 1081 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:09,080 Speaker 6: lifelong route of confusion and experimentation, that is abuse under 1082 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 6: the guise of activism, activism and love. For these people, 1083 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 6: I find it incredibly insulting that they're using these terms 1084 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:21,440 Speaker 6: like making gender identity fun, because realizing that you regret 1085 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 6: every single part of the last few years of your life, 1086 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 6: that you've lost your fertility, that you've lost parts of 1087 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 6: your sexuality and your identity for life is not fun. 1088 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 6: It's something that I and thousands of other children are 1089 01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 6: going to have to grapple with for the rest of 1090 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 6: our lives. 1091 01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 3: You mentioned that they cloak it in this language like 1092 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 3: they love you, they care, they're the ones that really 1093 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,800 Speaker 3: care about you. And I've noticed in life that so 1094 01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 3: often the predators are the ones that use that language, 1095 01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 3: the con artists, the scam artists, the snake oil salesman's, 1096 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:52,720 Speaker 3: they're the ones that will claim that they are your 1097 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 3: best friend, that they are here for you to help 1098 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:58,400 Speaker 3: you in your personal experience. Is that the way they 1099 01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,960 Speaker 3: talk to you, that it was close and concern for 1100 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:01,680 Speaker 3: your well being. 1101 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:05,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, they use all of these rosy terms like gender 1102 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 6: affirming care, pop surgery, bottom surgery, loving people for who 1103 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 6: they truly are in order to rope you in. That's 1104 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,360 Speaker 6: how they convince people into this in the first place. 1105 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 6: That's how they get people like my parents who are 1106 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 6: well meaning to allow their children to do things that 1107 01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 6: go against their very instincts by telling them your child 1108 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:26,200 Speaker 6: literally cannot live without this. This is who they are 1109 01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 6: and they cannot change that. And the longer that you 1110 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:30,960 Speaker 6: go without allowing them to be who they truly are, 1111 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 6: the more likely you are pushing them into suicide. And 1112 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:39,240 Speaker 6: that is exactly why we have to investigate these clinics, 1113 01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 6: these activists who are pushing this on our children, and 1114 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 6: make sure that the doctors who do this are all 1115 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:47,720 Speaker 6: held to account, and make sure through legislation and culturally 1116 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 6: this never happens to any child ever again in the 1117 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 6: United States. 1118 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:55,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, that point you just made where they emotionally manipulate 1119 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:59,280 Speaker 3: parents by holding out the specter of your child's going 1120 01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 3: to commit suicide if you don't do X, Y and Z, 1121 01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:04,680 Speaker 3: if you don't literally chop off their genitalia, or if 1122 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 3: you don't you know, chop off the breasts, whatever it is. 1123 01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I know that it's extraordinarily traumatic, probably still 1124 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 3: to even think about. But you know, from your parents' 1125 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:22,040 Speaker 3: perspective thirty seconds, what when they talk now about that, 1126 01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 3: what are they telling you? Like, what was that like 1127 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 3: for them to be a parent in that position. 1128 01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 6: They tell me all the time that they wish the 1129 01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:30,800 Speaker 6: doctors told them that we had another option, that we 1130 01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:32,480 Speaker 6: didn't have to do this, and that they didn't lie 1131 01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:34,160 Speaker 6: to them the way that they did. But they are 1132 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:36,800 Speaker 6: very grateful that not only have they been able to 1133 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:38,160 Speaker 6: come out of it, but also to be able to 1134 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,040 Speaker 6: use our story as a family to make sure that 1135 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 6: other families do not have to go through what we did. 1136 01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. I just can't. I can't imagine. 1137 01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 3: And God bless your parents too, because it's so obvious 1138 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:49,360 Speaker 3: and the way you talk about them that you care 1139 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 3: about them and that they care about you, and that 1140 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:53,680 Speaker 3: they were just trying their best. And there's so many 1141 01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 3: parents out there that have been caught in this that 1142 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 3: probably just thought they were trying their best. I mean 1143 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,800 Speaker 3: if a doctor comes to you, somebody you're supposed to trust, 1144 01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:02,960 Speaker 3: and they say your kid's gonna commit suicide if you 1145 01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 3: don't do this, I mean what. You just can't imagine 1146 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:11,240 Speaker 3: the excruciating, terrible choices in front of parents like that. 1147 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 3: I just gotta I gotta give a few more details 1148 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 3: on this story because it's so bizarre.

So now they're 1158 01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 3: sending it to schools, Chloe, Yep. They see like you 1159 01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,960 Speaker 3: can be anything, You can be any variation of the 1160 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:03,080 Speaker 3: six to six hundred different sex permutations that these people 1161 01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 3: believe in, and it's all good. We're making we're making 1162 01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 3: gender fun. It will be made available to teachers, school counselors, 1163 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:15,000 Speaker 3: pediatrician and mental health providers. According to a website for 1164 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 3: My Gender Dolls Okay and by the way, their website 1165 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:21,920 Speaker 3: features an image of a boy doll wearing a dress 1166 01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 3: and others in various states of sexual identity confusion. There 1167 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:31,080 Speaker 3: they are broadcasting showcasing their new product to the marketplace. 1168 01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:35,720 Speaker 3: It's just so wrong, it's so inappropriate and it's so 1169 01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:39,600 Speaker 3: gross and I just I can't get over the fact 1170 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 3: that we're still dealing with this. And this is where 1171 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:45,760 Speaker 3: my question leads. Chloe, So we thought President Trump one, 1172 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,360 Speaker 3: Woke is dead. We like to stay on the show. 1173 01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 3: Woke is not dead. It's just dormant or it's still 1174 01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 3: very active in these blue enclaves. Give us an update 1175 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 3: across the country. Where are we seeing wins and where 1176 01:04:57,680 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 3: is there's still a lot of work left to do. 1177 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:03,240 Speaker 6: Credibly frustrated when whenever I hear people say like, oh, 1178 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:06,600 Speaker 6: Woke is dead. We've completely defeated all the demons and 1179 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 6: Trump has won. And in many aspects, yes, we've won. 1180 01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:13,080 Speaker 6: We've had twenty six states over the years past legislation 1181 01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:16,360 Speaker 6: to protect children from this in some form. We're having 1182 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:20,280 Speaker 6: federal legislation like the Chloe Cole Act being proposed that 1183 01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 6: recently passed to committee actually and will seek to not 1184 01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:27,760 Speaker 6: just protect a select few children in a few different states, 1185 01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,720 Speaker 6: but federally, all across the board, through all fifty states, 1186 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 6: ban this treatment, man this abuse for kids, and make 1187 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 6: sure that every kid who's already been harmed gets a 1188 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,920 Speaker 6: private right to action. And we have a lot of 1189 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:42,080 Speaker 6: motion moving in the culture as well as well as 1190 01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:46,840 Speaker 6: a lot of investigations. But gender transition for children has 1191 01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 6: not gone away. 1192 01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:48,880 Speaker 4: These clinics and. 1193 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 6: These ideologues have only found better ways of hiding it 1194 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:51,720 Speaker 6: from us. 1195 01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 3: Give us some examples. How are they hiding it from us? 1196 01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:57,720 Speaker 3: Because we see this with DEI for example, the schools 1197 01:05:57,720 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 3: say they got rid of DEI, but they just changed 1198 01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:03,840 Speaker 3: the name, and that's how they skirt responsibility and accountability. 1199 01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 3: What are they doing on this right these. 1200 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 6: A lot of these schools will have policy changes that 1201 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 6: are as simple as like changing the name of a 1202 01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:12,160 Speaker 6: program so that they can just get away with it. 1203 01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:15,080 Speaker 6: And we have recorded cases of hospitals like I believe 1204 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:21,000 Speaker 6: Texas Children's committing fraud, basically committing insurance fraud by saying 1205 01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 6: that these children don't have a mental health issue, that 1206 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 6: they have an atocrine issue that is otherwise unspecified, in 1207 01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:29,840 Speaker 6: order to continue the abuse and the medical experimentation on them. 1208 01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 6: But they're also are cases like these so called gender dolls, 1209 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:35,640 Speaker 6: where they are doing it out of the open, loud 1210 01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 6: and proud because they know they can, because they're being 1211 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:40,480 Speaker 6: protected by the state, because they have governors like Tim 1212 01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:44,040 Speaker 6: Waltz who are actively pushing for this, and for as 1213 01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 6: long as this is legal anywhere in the States, as 1214 01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:50,480 Speaker 6: long as it's encouraged anywhere by anybody in power, no 1215 01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:53,040 Speaker 6: child in the US is going to be safe until 1216 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:55,160 Speaker 6: we take the industry down ourselves. 1217 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:56,680 Speaker 2: I want to throw up. 1218 01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:01,080 Speaker 3: This is from my gender dolls as a new play 1219 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 3: based therapeutic approach for trans and gender diverse children, and 1220 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 3: the clinicians who support them make we make gender fun, 1221 01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,600 Speaker 3: our award winning dolls. I wonder who gave them an award, 1222 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 3: maybe themselves and service our community informed, research driven, culturally attuned, 1223 01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 3: and grounded in gender affirming clinical practice. And this is 1224 01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 3: the part that really caught me off guard. Join the 1225 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:26,560 Speaker 3: weight list. They have a weight list for this. So 1226 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:30,880 Speaker 3: when we're talking about is woke dead, is some of 1227 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:32,400 Speaker 3: this gender insanity dead? 1228 01:07:32,520 --> 01:07:32,680 Speaker 2: No? 1229 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:35,680 Speaker 3: No, no, there's a whole army of people that are 1230 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 3: involved with your children that completely support this, and they're 1231 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:44,960 Speaker 3: joining a weight list to get these trans dolls in 1232 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:49,600 Speaker 3: your kid's classroom. Like this has not gone away. This 1233 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 3: needs to be illegal, And the question then becomes, how 1234 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:56,600 Speaker 3: do we best achieve that ain't? And now tell us 1235 01:07:56,640 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 3: more about your the Chloe Cole Act who's sponsoring it, 1236 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:00,440 Speaker 3: and what would it achieve. 1237 01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:06,400 Speaker 6: So the Chloeal Act was implemented by was written by 1238 01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:12,160 Speaker 6: Representative Bob Onder of Missouri, and it's as I said earlier, 1239 01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,800 Speaker 6: it seeks to ban this treatment across all fifty states 1240 01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:18,680 Speaker 6: in all, in all territories of the US surgery is. 1241 01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:20,680 Speaker 2: It surgery in therapeutics or what? 1242 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:20,880 Speaker 7: Is? 1243 01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:21,000 Speaker 3: It? 1244 01:08:21,080 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 6: Banned every single aspect of the transition process, from the 1245 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:32,559 Speaker 6: the medical the affirmation, the use of surgeries, the use 1246 01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:35,640 Speaker 6: of hormone treatments and blockers. And it makes it so 1247 01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:37,880 Speaker 6: that I believe there is about a twenty or so 1248 01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:41,519 Speaker 6: year period after the minor terms eighteen or after they 1249 01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:44,640 Speaker 6: after they first discovered that they regretless and want to 1250 01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:46,720 Speaker 6: do transition and want to see damages for what they've 1251 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:49,200 Speaker 6: been through, which is something that is very desperately needed 1252 01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:52,599 Speaker 6: right now because I have many friends who have cases 1253 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 6: of their own. I'm currently in a lawsuit of my 1254 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 6: own right now with Kaiser, and many of these cases 1255 01:08:57,160 --> 01:08:59,879 Speaker 6: are being thrown out on the basis of statute limitation, 1256 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 6: or people aren't even able to sew or get justice 1257 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:04,760 Speaker 6: for things that they went through at very tent or 1258 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,680 Speaker 6: ages because in many states, the statute of limitations for 1259 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:13,080 Speaker 6: treatments in hospitals is as little as two three years, 1260 01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:15,400 Speaker 6: and that is not nearly enough when we are abusing 1261 01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:17,200 Speaker 6: children and confusing them for life. 1262 01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:19,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, isn't that very convenient for them? 1263 01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:23,080 Speaker 3: So they get a young kid ten twelve years old, 1264 01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:27,479 Speaker 3: maybe four in this case, they medically mutilate them, they 1265 01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:32,559 Speaker 3: psychologically abuse them, and brainwash them, and then it takes 1266 01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 3: a little while, understandably in any of these cases, to 1267 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:37,599 Speaker 3: figure out what has been done to them, that they 1268 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:42,719 Speaker 3: have been victimized by these absolute monsters that call themselves 1269 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:49,800 Speaker 3: PhDs and researchers and clinical psychologists or whatever, and then they. 1270 01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:50,320 Speaker 2: Get off scott free. 1271 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:53,520 Speaker 3: Because it takes young people that like yourself that detransition 1272 01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:55,760 Speaker 3: a certain amount of time to figure that out and 1273 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:57,439 Speaker 3: to come out of that. Because when you go, when 1274 01:09:57,479 --> 01:10:00,519 Speaker 3: you spend so much of your formative years as a child, 1275 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:03,200 Speaker 3: going down a road to hell, it takes you a 1276 01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:05,840 Speaker 3: little while to turn it around and figure things out. 1277 01:10:06,280 --> 01:10:08,360 Speaker 2: So I totally support that. 1278 01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:10,759 Speaker 3: By the way, I think that's brilliant extending the statute 1279 01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 3: of limitations on these lawsuits, because I genuinely believe that 1280 01:10:14,600 --> 01:10:16,920 Speaker 3: the way you really take these people out is you 1281 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:20,639 Speaker 3: sue them into oblivion. If you start getting lawsuits from 1282 01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:23,360 Speaker 3: all these kids speaking up and you get a whole 1283 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,400 Speaker 3: infrastructure around that, you will stop them in their tracks. 1284 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 3: They will not want the financial liabilities that come with 1285 01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:31,639 Speaker 3: it. It would just be simply too risky. So I love 1286 01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 3: that approach and I'm glad you're pursuing it.
