This Joe Rogan interview between Jadvance and 28 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 4: Joe Rogan basically dominated the Internet yesterday because they went 29 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 4: into a lot of different topics. Let me just quickly 30 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 4: preview the show and then we're gonna break that interview 31 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 4: down as best we can. We've got Senator Eric Schmidt on. 32 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 4: We're gonna be talking Save America Act. We're gonna be 33 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 4: talking the NDAA. A lot of people are talking about 34 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 4: Section two one nine that sort of proposes cooperation. Some 35 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 4: are calling it a merger between Israel and the US military, 36 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 4: sort of tech development, intel sharing. 37 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 5: We're going to talk all about that. 38 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 4: Just as a preview, I'm very leery of that anything 39 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 4: with any country that gives over any semblance of control 40 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 4: or sovereignty, but let's keep an open mind. We're going 41 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 4: to talk Derek Schmid about that. Then we've got Sean Spicer. 42 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 4: We're gonna go around the horn on midterms and everything 43 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 4: that's shaping up the DSA takeover of the left. And 44 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 4: then we've got Alex Marlowe at the final half of 45 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 4: the second hour, So busy, busy show, Blake, Why don't 46 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 4: you just set the stage for why this JD Joe 47 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 4: Rogan interview has taken the Internet by storm. 48 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 6: Well, it circles back to what made the twenty twenty 49 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 6: four elections so exceptional. President Trump and JD Vance's running mate. 50 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 6: They ran an unconventional campaign. It evaded a lot of 51 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 6: the traditional media, but it went to new media, which 52 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 6: as we know, is incredibly popular. Far more people while 53 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 6: and listen to Joe Rogan then watch and listen to 54 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 6: CNN on a given night. And he has tremendous ability 55 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 6: to especially reach younger Americans, young men, that swing demographic 56 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 6: that Charlie worked so hard to reach and that the 57 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 6: campaign had so much success reaching. But as we know, 58 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 6: what swung our way in twenty twenty four has started 59 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 6: to swing back the other way. We have people who 60 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 6: are upset about Epstein files, we have people who are 61 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 6: upset about Iran. 62 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 5: We have the. 63 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 6: General tendency of young people to quickly get disillusioned with 64 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 6: things and swing back and forth, and so there's been 65 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 6: a lot of attention that Joe Rogan has said stuff 66 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 6: critical of the administration. He's said stuff critical of the 67 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 6: right generally, but we've also praised Vice President Vance. He 68 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 6: goes into the arena, he goes where it's tough. He 69 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 6: was on the view and now he's back on Joe Rogan, 70 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 6: and he didn't really hold anything back. He talked about 71 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 6: every topic we can imagine, and some of them are 72 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 6: getting a lot of chatter as which is what we're 73 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 6: going to hit just now. 74 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 4: Well, why don't we hit the main one first here, 75 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 4: just to get make sure we get it, And this 76 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 4: is they're talking about Israel's influence in the US, in 77 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 4: our political system. You see really really dramatic reactions on 78 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 4: both sides of this debate. So let's play the clip 79 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 4: and we'll talk about it. 80 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 7: It's not twenty six, but I definitely think you have 81 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 7: seen this very discreete extremely well funded campaign to try 82 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 7: to derail. 83 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 5: The negotiation and try to derail the deal. 84 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 8: And you know there was again there's this time article 85 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 8: that came out yesterday. A friends send it to me. 86 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 8: It's like worth reading because it lists a bunch of 87 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 8: people who have quite literally been paid by a former 88 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 8: Trump campaign person who was himself paid by certain elements 89 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 8: within the Israeli government, And those people are attacking me 90 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 8: viciously for quite literally trying to accomplish the negotiation objective 91 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 8: that the President's set for the country. Again, when I 92 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 8: open up the pages of Time magazine and I see 93 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 8: that there's a literal foreign influence campaign being funded to 94 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 8: tank the very deal that I was pursuing, you know, 95 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 8: my response to that is, well, go to hell. I'm 96 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 8: gonna do what I have to do for the American people. 97 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think let's pair that really quick with 98 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 4: another clip that I think fills in some of the 99 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 4: context here, and it is about Iran. 100 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 5: It is about Israel Sat ten. 101 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 8: If the Iranian people want to rise up and change 102 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 8: their government, that's up to them. But we're not going 103 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 8: to send one hundred and fifty thousand ground troops in 104 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 8: order to accomplish a change in a regime unless the 105 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 8: people on the ground themselves want to accomplish that outcome. Now, 106 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 8: we're not going to send the troops in regardless. But 107 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 8: like to propose sending in the troops, you're basically saying 108 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 8: that the US military should do the job for the 109 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 8: Iranian people. We're not in that business anymore. 110 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 4: We're just not all right, So let's just frame the debate. 111 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 4: A lot of people are seeing these clips and they're 112 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 4: saying JD is echoing the sentiments of Tucker Carlson, He's 113 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,559 Speaker 4: Tucker's you know, Mitt Tucker is JD's mentor or something 114 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 4: like that. I think that is far too simplistic. I 115 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 4: think what JD is saying is something that we have 116 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 4: actually said on this show. And I'm trying to grapple 117 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 4: with why is this so controversial to some? It follows 118 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 4: logic that being in a perpetual, forever war is not 119 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 4: something President Trump ran on. JD did not go and 120 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 4: negotiate an MoU with Iran in a vacuum. 121 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 5: He did that at the President's bidding. 122 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 4: So to put this all on JD, or to put 123 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 4: this as some sort of betrayal to Israel, I think 124 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 4: it's completely disingenuous. And he's making the same point Blake 125 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 4: that we made on this show as they were pursuing peace. 126 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 4: Piece is good, Piece is popular. We saw that in 127 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 4: the polling, and what is the alternative right right now now? 128 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 2: Now? 129 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 5: We are trading blows with Iran. 130 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 4: Now they're saying that they want to get back to 131 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 4: the negotiating table. They just released a US prisoner of 132 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 4: Theirs in good faith. President Trump thanked them for that. 133 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,679 Speaker 4: What is the alternative. We're not going to send one hundred, 134 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty thousand ground troops into Iran. Now, yeah, 135 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 4: you could say that Iran is not somebody that you 136 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 4: can negotiate in good faith with. I think everybody at 137 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 4: that table, at the negotiating table, including JD, understands the 138 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 4: dynamic there, but I'm struggling to understand it. Blake when 139 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 4: we just heard recently that the Department of War and 140 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 4: other intel agencies within our federal government are concerned about 141 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 4: Israel spying on the US. In fact, the report states 142 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 4: that those efforts have been ramped up recently. So I 143 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 4: think when we talk about influence in the United States, 144 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 4: people get upset that we focus on Israel. We don't 145 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 4: necessarily do that on this show, but it's a fair critique. 146 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 4: Cutter spends way more money. Other countries have a lot 147 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 4: more malign influence in this country, but Israel can probably 148 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 4: get a better ROI out of that. Influence because they're 149 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 4: talking too many sympathetic voters and politicians, right, and so 150 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 4: the influence is there. JD just said, Hey, it's very 151 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 4: it's very effective influence because it's speaking to a crowd 152 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 4: that is, you know, sympathetic to Israel and it's plight 153 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 4: in the Middle East. I certainly am one of those people. 154 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 4: But here's here's the deal. I don't understand at essence 155 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 4: where the core of the controversy is other than he's 156 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 4: not saying let's go bomb the heck out of Iran 157 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 4: and regime. 158 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 5: J I mean, am I missing something that. 159 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 9: Is the core of it? That's that JD. 160 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 6: Vance has become the face of a fight that we 161 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 6: know was going on before this administration even took office. 162 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 6: It is, frankly, it's it's the breakdown of the popularity 163 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 6: of Israel with the US public, and there's a struggle 164 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 6: over that and JD. Vance has become the focal point 165 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 6: of it. And I'm sure we'll probably be able to 166 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 6: discuss it more in the future here because that struggle 167 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 6: is not going. 168 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 5: Away, all right. 169 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 4: So one of my frustrations with this Blake is that 170 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 4: it feels like the interests on either side of this 171 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 4: debate are so deeply invested that even what appeared to 172 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 4: me to be a common sense approach right down the middle, 173 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 4: like hey, we like Israel, we support Israel, but we 174 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 4: also understand that they're attempting to influence this debate. They 175 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 4: don't want to see the MoU get done, so you 176 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 4: know that's a problem. And he's basically saying, Hey, other 177 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 4: countries are trying to influence us too, that's what they're 178 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 4: gonna do. We understand it, but American politicians need to 179 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 4: be aware of it, and we need to keep America's 180 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 4: interest first and foremost. 181 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 5: Here. 182 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 6: It's acts like a common sense approach. It's absolutely a 183 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 6: thankless task. And we saw this with Charlie because Charlie 184 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 6: tried to chart out a similar path and we saw 185 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 6: what happened. We have people say he's a Zio shill, 186 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 6: a fake Christian on one end. We saw people say 187 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 6: he was an anti Semite on the other end. Both 188 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 6: of those attacks were completely. 189 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 9: False and they were pretty hurtful. 190 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 6: And it's something that's going to happen because it is 191 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 6: simply the case. There are people in America who believe 192 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 6: that America and Israel's interests are identical, and sometimes that 193 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 6: can translate to if the Israeli government wants a thing, 194 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 6: you're basically opposing America if you pose that. 195 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 9: And on the flip side, you. 196 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 6: Have people who basically believe Israel is an enemy nation 197 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 6: to the United States, and so we can never align 198 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 6: our interests and you're a traitor if you're not trying to, 199 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 6: frankly like actively give weapons to Palestinians and so forth. 200 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 6: And it's very difficult for either of those strands to 201 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 6: handle even a moderate path. They see even the moderate 202 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 6: path is actually hopelessly extreme and dangerous. 203 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 9: And I think there's a lot. 204 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 6: Of people who actually go down the Vice President's middle path, 205 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 6: but he's become the symbol of it, and so that's 206 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 6: exposed into a lot of attacks. 207 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, he is that sort of center point in the 208 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 4: tug of war, which I do believe to your point 209 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 4: is where a lot of Americans are. We like Israel, 210 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 4: we support them, We want them to be able to 211 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 4: defend themselves against attacks, you know, if they are getting attacked. Uh, 212 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 4: we have you know, you and I both have a 213 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 4: ton of Jewish friends. Dennis Praeger was uh one of 214 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 4: Charlie's mentors and dearest friends and continues to be a 215 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: dear friend of mine. At the same time, we can 216 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 4: all acknowledge that at various points, at any type of 217 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 4: you know, whether it be foreign policy or negotiations with Iran, 218 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 4: that we are going to have differences of prioritization. And 219 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 4: that is natural between two sovereign entities. So to the 220 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 4: point that with this MoU, which was the same point 221 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 4: I have been making since the MoU came onto the scene, 222 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 4: was what is the alternative? The alternative is, I guess 223 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 4: we do this forever war stuff. We we you know, 224 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 4: find ourselves in a detent of some sort where now 225 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 4: President Trump says, we're going to be controlling the straight 226 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 4: up hornm moose and definitely, and we're going to be 227 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 4: you know, charging a toll essentially to for those efforts, 228 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 4: for the expense that is incurred by the United States 229 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 4: to do that. Listen, we have warned about the fact 230 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 4: that this war is easy to start, hard to end. Okay, 231 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 4: JD is trying to forge an end to that, and 232 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 4: he's been deployed by the President of the United States 233 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 4: to do that. But what's interesting is that some people 234 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 4: hear this and they hear anti Israel sentiment me as 235 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 4: a Christian American patriot. I didn't hear any anti Semitism 236 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 4: in there. I didn't hear any anti Israel sentiment in there. 237 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 4: I just heard common sense. Hey, we've got to pursue peace. 238 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 4: We achieved our core objectives, and we've got to move forward. 239 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 4: And again, what is the alternative. We're not going to 240 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 4: be sending one hundred hundred fifty thousand ground troops into 241 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 4: a rum. 242 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 5: It's just not going to happen. There's no will on 243 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 5: our side to do it politically or militarily. 244 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 9: And that's ultimately what a lot of this is. 245 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 6: I think a lot of people have not given up 246 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 6: the ghosts of full regime changed war with Iran. They 247 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 6: felt they came tantalizingly close last February. 248 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 9: I mean I saw that play out. 249 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 6: I saw that play out on x in online chats 250 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 6: I was in were people who were enthusiastic. Once the 251 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 6: bombs started falling, they started saying, you know, a few 252 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 6: thousand troops on carg Island could end this war. A 253 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 6: few thousand troops helicoptered into Tehran could end to this war. 254 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 6: And you know that if that came to pass and 255 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 6: the war didn't end, it would be well, fifty thousand 256 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 6: troops would end it, one undred thousand troops would end it. 257 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 6: Some people are just not given up on this, and 258 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 6: again they're looking around for someone to blame. The Vice 259 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 6: President has certainly become the face of He's become the 260 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 6: face of the people fighting for a negotiated end to 261 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 6: the war, a more immediate end to the war, and 262 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 6: so that's generated a lot of attacks. And I don't 263 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 6: think a lot of these people will necessarily have ill 264 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 6: will for America overall. I don't think all of them 265 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 6: are just are dedicated Israeli agents or whatever. But I 266 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 6: think I think that's what's driving this. 267 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 4: And yeah, but let's just be clear, what's really driving 268 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 4: this is a proxy for twenty twenty eight. Also that 269 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 4: I want the audience to fully internalize that. Yeah, because 270 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 4: what this is is there is an internal battle between 271 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 4: factions that want Marco to run and they see him 272 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 4: as more sort of I would say fitting with the 273 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 4: historical norm of the relationship with Israel and Jade Vance 274 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 4: is probably a little bit more of a pragmatist when 275 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 4: it comes to this, that we have American interests that 276 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 4: sometimes diverge. We like them, we want to support them, 277 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 4: but where those interests diverge, we're going to pursue American interests. 278 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 4: I would say Marco would probably articulate his position similarly, 279 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 4: but I think there is essentially a larger bond of 280 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 4: trust between that faction and Marco, and so everything is 281 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 4: getting pushed in as this proxy to twenty twenty eight. 282 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 4: And again I'm sitting here last night not fully understanding 283 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 4: where the controversy is coming from until you realize that 284 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 4: this is a proxy about twenty twenty eight. This is 285 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 4: sort of saying, hey, he's not sounding the right notes 286 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 4: for a certain faction, and we're going to have a 287 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 4: larger reaction than probably is justified. I will say. There 288 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 4: was another piece they talked about Epstein. Jd Vance admitted 289 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 4: that the rollout was from a communication standpoint, not ideal. 290 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 5: It was a disaster. 291 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 4: I think he said owned up to that and said 292 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 4: that his position on this is that he certainly seems 293 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 4: to have ties to intelligence communities, including Israeli, including American, 294 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 4: but he you know, remains unsure. So all of that 295 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 4: was packed, and they also talked about California. They talked 296 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 4: about the Save America Act. They talked about how full 297 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 4: of it that Gavin Newsom is. So it is a phenomenal, 298 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 4: phenomenal watch. I am not all the way through it. 299 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 4: I'm about two thirds of the way through it. I 300 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 4: recommend everybody go check it out for yourself, get the 301 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 4: tone in the context for yourself, because the reaction to 302 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 4: it just feels disproportionate from the reality. More Americans are 303 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 4: starting to ask an important question, why is it so 304 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 4: difficult to get access to medications you may already know 305 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 4: you need. If you're your health is your responsibility. Why 306 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 4: are outside systems deciding what you can have and when 307 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 4: you're allowed to get it.

And I'm saying so hints 337 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 4: that this Reconciliation Bill is like it's going to be voluntary. 338 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 5: States have to opt in, please fill a sim. 339 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 12: Look, I think that we we have I think we 340 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,479 Speaker 12: have a limited amount of time to do it. That's 341 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 12: why I think there's more of a sense of urgency, 342 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 12: right because we want to get this done in time 343 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 12: for it to matter in twenty twenty six. 344 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 3: There's two I would say there's two kind of tracks. 345 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 12: There's there's what people have come to know as the 346 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 12: Save America Act, like the statute that includes and I'm 347 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 12: sponsor of what President Trump wants, the kind of the 348 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 12: five pillars, which is voter ID you have to be 349 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 12: an American citizen to vote in American elections. And then 350 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 12: the cutting back on this widespread election or mail in 351 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 12: balloting scams that we've seen in different states. Then it's 352 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 12: no men and women's sports and no transgender mutilation of 353 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 12: our kids. That's the thing that you know, there's original 354 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 12: kind of the first two pieces of that. But having 355 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 12: said that, that's the piece that if we're going to 356 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 12: do it, we have to do the talking filibuster. In 357 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 12: my mind, we have to spend the time on the 358 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 12: floor to try to wear down the Democrats or at 359 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 12: least kind of just see where everybody's at because they're 360 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 12: going to do a quorum call. We got to make 361 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 12: sure we have fifty one people out there all the time. 362 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 12: That is our best shot on that. What's now being 363 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 12: talked about what the House is considering is because through reconciliation, 364 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 12: although it only requires a simple majority, you can only 365 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 12: deal with like budget matters. You can't like have a 366 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 12: policy change or something like that. So what they're talking about, 367 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 12: I think is to have dollars in there to support 368 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 12: like states doing voter ID, making sure that you can 369 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 12: check to make sure these are American citizens, that kind 370 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 12: of thing. So look, as far as I'm concerned, the 371 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 12: more like kind of hands run and same direction is good. 372 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 3: I think we got to do this. 373 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 12: I don't understand quite frankly, people who don't want to 374 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 12: do it or aren't that committed to it. It's if 375 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 12: you don't have as the President said, if you don't 376 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 12: have fair elections, you don't have a country. 377 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 3: And that's why it's important. 378 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, but Senator, I'm seeing that it could be voluntary, 379 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 4: so the states would have to opt in for these grants. 380 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 4: They're trying to carve out ten billion dollars of grants 381 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 4: that could go to the state to support ensuring that 382 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 4: if you get a real ID that would also confirm 383 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 4: you're a citizen. Is that essentially how I'm I'm reading it, 384 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 4: And then it would be volunteer. Aren't all the blue 385 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 4: states just going to tell us to go pound sand Probably? 386 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 12: But this is why I haven't seen that language yet. 387 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 12: But maybe what you could do is something like they 388 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 12: do with like highway funding, right, which is, if you 389 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 12: don't have a point oh eight DTA eye law in 390 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 12: your state, you don't get the highway funding. So that 391 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 12: this is admittedly, and I think Mike Lee has even 392 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 12: said this is not the ideal way to do it, 393 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 12: but it is something. But clearly I think we should 394 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 12: still try to do the whole shooting match, right, which 395 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 12: is the Save America Act and and and uh, the 396 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 12: budgetary stuff is something, but it's it's certainly not what 397 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 12: I think people have come to understand Save America to be. 398 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this this sounds kind of like a disappointment. 399 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 5: I'm gonna be honest. It should be mandatory. 400 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 4: The federal government controls federal elections, the states can control 401 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 4: their local elections, I suppose, but it just it just 402 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 4: beggars belief that we can't get this mandated across the states, 403 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 4: and that it would be an opt in for the 404 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 4: worst actors, which are the blue states. They don't want 405 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 4: to do this anyways because they know it's going to 406 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 4: hurt their electoral chances. 407 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 12: Well, yeah, Senator Sockin said the same thing, And I 408 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 12: would also point out that one of the reasons, you know, 409 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 12: I was Attorney General Missouri and we fought back against 410 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 12: We beat back Mark Lias in Missouri when during COVID 411 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 12: they were trying to change our election laws. When President Trump, 412 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 12: I don't know exactly what he's going to say tonight, 413 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 12: but I do think to my Republican colleagues and others, 414 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 12: there are mail in balloting schemes. When you have a 415 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 12: system in your state that just sends these ballots to 416 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 12: everybody in the state, whether they've requested them or not, 417 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 12: and you have these dropboxes, it's really hard to detect 418 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 12: the kind of fraud that we know will happen in 419 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 12: that kind of scenario. So I've been a big proponent 420 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 12: of cracking down on this mail in balloting fraud and 421 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 12: whatever we do I think that should be a part 422 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 12: of it. 423 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 4: But anyway, well, absolutely, we have a great example of 424 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 4: this from California. 425 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, you know, I don't have to play 426 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 5: the clip. It's forty seconds long. 427 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 4: But you know Joe Rogan, who is He's a call 428 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 4: balls and strikes kind of guy, right, He said, I'm 429 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 4: not skeptical. 430 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 5: I'm accusing them. I think they stole the election. 431 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 4: He's talking about the Spencer Pratt election, and I agree 432 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 4: with him. Let's quickly transition here, Senator Schmidt. We've got 433 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 4: this NDAA section two nineteen. People are saying that it's 434 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 4: merging the US and Israeli governments together. But there's I 435 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 4: guess there's two aspects of it. There is the intel sharing, 436 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 4: and then there's the tech development, the military tech development 437 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 4: portion of it. On its face, this seems not like 438 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 4: a like a bad idea, and it's not specific to Israel. 439 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 4: It's specific to the fact that it feels like a 440 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 4: bad idea in general. You know, you want your military 441 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 4: to be like completely. You want the country to be sovereign. 442 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 4: You want the military to be controlled by the sovereign, 443 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 4: not hamstrung by some foreign country. What's your position on 444 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 4: this and does it have a realistic chance of actually 445 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 4: proceeding and passing. 446 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 12: So I'm gonna be clear, this is a this is 447 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 12: a House provision right now, because they're actually on the NDAA. 448 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 3: This is a House provision. And what that section, I guess. 449 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 12: Reports to do is it creates a separate office, like 450 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 12: almost an executive office outside the President of the legislature 451 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 12: to manage this and to coordinate I mean, I think 452 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,959 Speaker 12: even requiring coordination of intelligence. And so you know, from 453 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 12: my perspective that is not in the Senate, that is 454 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 12: in the House. But you know me, one of the 455 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 12: reasons why Charlie and I hit it off so well 456 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 12: from the very beginning is I'm a very America first 457 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 12: foreign policy guy. 458 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 3: With any country. 459 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 12: If our if our foreign policy interests aligned, great, if 460 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 12: they don't. I'm an American, I represent Missouri in the 461 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 12: United States Senate. I'm you know, I want to make 462 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 12: sure our foreign policy works for the American people. 463 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 3: I've been you know. So that's kind of where I'm 464 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 3: at on it. We'll see. 465 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 12: I don't know what exactly they're going to do, but 466 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 12: I don't want to I don't want to see any sovereignty, 467 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 12: do another country. 468 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 3: I'll promise you that and. 469 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 4: So, and that's the thing I mean, Sorry, Senator. We 470 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 4: have similar arrangements with the UK and Australia, but we 471 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,959 Speaker 4: see as our interests with the UK are diverging and 472 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 4: they're losing their minds about free speech and Islam and immigration. 473 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 4: I mean, how much longer can we actually trust that 474 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 4: they're a country that is, you know, sharing our interests 475 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 4: at a very fundamental level. I mean, our values are 476 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 4: diverging as we speak. So why get in bed so 477 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 4: deeply with any foreign power when you can't control said 478 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 4: forign powers political reality? 479 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 3: Right? 480 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 5: I guess I think doesn't make any sense to me. 481 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 12: I think the key is to make sure we have 482 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,160 Speaker 12: flexibility and not to lock in something that we're required 483 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 12: to do because circumstances can change. Somebody's asked me why 484 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 12: I was so supportive of the president's you know, desire 485 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 12: to acquire Greenland and he wasn't talking about invading Greenland. 486 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 12: But why is that important? Well, first of all, it's 487 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 12: in our core national interest. It's in the Arctic circle. Secondly, 488 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 12: critical minerals that are there, you can mine them and 489 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 12: refine them on that you know island. And then thirdly, 490 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 12: I don't know what Denmark's government looks like in fifty years. 491 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 12: It could be run by a bunch of radical you know, 492 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 12: Mullahs or something. I don't really know. So I want 493 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 12: to make sure we control, we control. I've I've been 494 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 12: very clear that our European allies specifically need to start 495 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 12: providing for their own defense in a much more meaningful way. 496 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 3: We have been subsidizing this. 497 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,239 Speaker 12: They have been They have been subsidizing by us doing that, 498 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 12: subsidizing their social welfare programs and not really committed to 499 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 12: their own defense. In America can't be everywhere all at 500 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 12: once all the time. We got to focus on the homeland, 501 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 12: we got to focus on the Western hemisphere, and we 502 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 12: got to focus on our chief rival for the next 503 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 12: one hundred years, which is China. And so this is 504 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 12: a hard lesson for the Europeans to learn. President Trump 505 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 12: talks about it, Vice President Vance talks about Marco Rubio 506 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 12: talks about it, this pivot. Europe for a long time 507 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 12: has believed that the center of the universe and this 508 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,479 Speaker 12: kind of post World War two world well, guess what, 509 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 12: after the Cold War, we never really adjusted. We should 510 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 12: have This was a mistake by Republicans and Democrats quite frankly, 511 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 12: in that we never renegotiated these trade deals that were 512 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 12: made after World War Two. We never asked the Europeans 513 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 12: to step up in a much more meaningful way. And 514 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,439 Speaker 12: it is now finally we have an administration that is 515 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 12: focused on kind of the Western hemisphere, and like I said, 516 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 12: communist China, that is where our core national interests are. 517 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 12: And that's those are the things I'm advocating for. 518 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 9: I think you speak that well that we need to. 519 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 6: It's America has been so strong, it got so easy 520 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 6: for us to just see our interests as the world's interest. 521 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 6: But we do need this pullback focus core American interests 522 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 6: first before we save the entire world. 523 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 9: And I think that's well said. 524 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 3: One hundred percent. 525 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 4: Hi, folks, Andrew Colvett here, I'd like to tell you 526 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 4: about my friends over at why REFI.

All right, So, since we have lost 544 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 4: Senator Schmidt, I want to keep going with these Rogan clips. 545 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 5: These are just too good, Blake. We're gonna go. We're 546 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 5: doing it. We're going into your favorite topic, and that's 547 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 5: Epstein st nine. 548 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 8: He clearly had connections to the upper the highest levels 549 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 8: of American intelligence. He clearly had connections to the highest 550 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 8: levels of Israeli intelligence. 551 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 4: All right, So that's getting a lot of that's making waves, Blake, 552 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 4: that he that jd Vance is saying definitively that he 553 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 4: clearly had ties. So I'm sure you've got opinions, but 554 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 4: hold them to your once one more second, we'll play 555 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 4: the longer clipstop. 556 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 8: For the problem is, if you go back to the 557 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 8: original investigation, it was designed in a way that was 558 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 8: way too narrow if there was a broader conspiracy. And 559 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 8: you know, my view is that there probably was the 560 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 8: evidence that exists in two thousand and seven that was 561 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 8: the opportunity to get So you know, I could literally 562 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 8: do two episodes about this. I've gone on down to 563 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 8: every rabbit hole. 564 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 10: But it's clear that he was trying to get in 565 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,239 Speaker 10: contact with people that he felt were influential. He was 566 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 10: trying to either influence people or compromise people. 567 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 3: Correct. 568 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 10: So it's not there's some sort of an operation. 569 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 8: There is a story there, and you know, I will 570 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 8: go to my deathbed believing there's a story there, but 571 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 8: I can't prove it. And I promise you there's not 572 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 8: some document that at least I'm hiding that allows us 573 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 8: to prove exactly what was going on. 574 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 6: All right, holding back, We've been around the block on 575 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 6: this a few times, and I think you and I 576 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 6: both know that's the kind of answer that is certainly 577 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 6: never going to satisfy a lot of people where he says, Yah, 578 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,959 Speaker 6: you know, I think there's something probably there, but you know, 579 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 6: there's no document for it, there's nothing to prove it. 580 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 6: And you know how I feel about this at this point. 581 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 6: My suspicion is the reason there's probably no document proving 582 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 6: it is there's probably surprisingly little there. You can say 583 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 6: he had connections to intelligence, Israeli and US, but what 584 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 6: does a. 585 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 9: Connection amount to? 586 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 6: This is a guy that we know made a huge 587 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 6: number of friends. He was a supreme social butterfly. He 588 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 6: was very good at socially manipulating people, and he was 589 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 6: a very he was a consummate liar. 590 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 9: He was good at lying to people. 591 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 6: And does that mean he probably had met and corresponded 592 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 6: with and knew a lot of people. 593 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 9: Yeah? 594 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 6: Does it mean what people mean when they say Intelligence 595 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 6: ties that he was a fixer, that he was a trafficker, 596 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 6: that he was getting blackmail on people. All I would 597 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 6: say is I think we should have more evidence before 598 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 6: we actually say those things. And I can't wonder, I 599 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 6: can't help, but wonder did the Vice president hurt himself 600 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 6: a little bit by even going as far as he did, 601 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 6: because I don't know if there is evidence that. I 602 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 6: don't know if there is strong reason to believe that 603 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 6: there's more there. 604 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 4: Well, I will tell you, you know, to your point, 605 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 4: the the evidence point is valid. I certainly believe that 606 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 4: I tend to be of the Vice President's persuasion here 607 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 4: that I do believe there was ties. 608 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 5: I do believe that there was connections. 609 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 4: To what extent those were formalized, They probably weren't formalized, right, 610 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 4: and so there's probably not going to be a trail 611 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 4: that's visible or available to even the best investigators, the 612 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 4: most dispassionate investigators to track down. But we certainly know 613 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 4: that his rise was very shady. I think he was 614 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 4: a con artist. I think he was good at building 615 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 4: relationships with powerful people. And I'm not convinced that there 616 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 4: was some black book with every list of his clients 617 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 4: and the compromitt that he held over their heads. I 618 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 4: think he was a good time guy that liked to 619 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 4: party and was a total skis ball, and he was 620 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 4: a creep and a weirdo. And I think he had 621 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 4: sexual fetishes that obviously led him down a very, very 622 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 4: criminal and destructive path. 623 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 5: And he did take some other people with him. 624 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 4: Now, to the extent that you know other people were 625 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 4: involved in that or were even aware, I think it varies, 626 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 4: and I think we should get accountability on that. So 627 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 4: I have no problem with what he said. My instincts 628 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 4: lead me to believe the same thing that he does. 629 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 4: But to your point, unless there's evidence, there's nothing that 630 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 4: that can be done. Now, there is a lot of 631 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 4: evidence that he was in communication with a lot of people, 632 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 4: that he was doing business at a very high level. 633 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 4: But if you've ever been around these circles, you know 634 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 4: that that the relationships are kind of where the rubber 635 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 4: meets road. That is how the business gets done. So 636 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 4: to his point, I don't know that we'll ever be 637 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 4: able to prove it, but speculation will continue to run rampant. 638 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 4: And yeah, I mean I think he reflects the thinking 639 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 4: of a lot of people out there. You know, some 640 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 4: people are are frustrated that he went there. I have 641 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 4: no problem with it, and you know, it is what 642 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 4: it is, all right, so real quick, go ahead. 643 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 6: The best thing he did, and it's something I think 644 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 6: we needed a little earlier, was just the Frank acknowledgment 645 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 6: that the files could have been handled better by the administration. 646 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 6: I think he just said, yeah, very obviously, we messed 647 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 6: this up. And I just think back, that's what Charlie 648 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 6: was trying to get across a year ago, and he 649 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 6: took heap for it. 650 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 9: Charlie was a brave guy. He just said, this is 651 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 9: a tough thing. 652 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 6: They kind of tried to come out on a Sunday 653 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 6: night and say, yeah, there's not really that much here, 654 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 6: let's move on to another thing. 655 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 9: And I just think they didn't quite. 656 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 6: Appreciate how attached people were to this issue and coming 657 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 6: back to it and saying, we get it. People really 658 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 6: wanted more here, and we messed that up. I think 659 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 6: is a welcome type of transparency. That's that's the Trump 660 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 6: administration at its best. 661 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 4: So here's my take to sum up the JD Vance 662 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 4: interview with Joe Rogan. Lots of controversy over the Israel topics, 663 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 4: over Iran, over Epstein. I am a believer that he 664 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 4: is reflecting the majority opinion in essentially every single one. 665 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 5: Of these topics. 666 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 4: And there are going to be niche constituency that want 667 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 4: him to go harder, that want him to go softer, 668 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 4: that want him to I'm telling you he's reflective of 669 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 4: the of the larger population. 670 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 5: I believe JD. 671 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 4: Vance has remained very very in touch with the base. 672 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 4: He's remained very very in touch with the sentiment of 673 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 4: the American public public. And there's gonna people be people 674 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 4: on either ends of those debates that are gonna get 675 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 4: really up in arms. You saw this with the MoU. 676 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 4: You saw when he was out there pursuing the MoU. 677 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 4: His favorables shot through the roof. President Trump's favorable shot 678 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 4: through the roof. Let the process play out, Let's see 679 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 4: where this lands. I'm a one to believe that JD 680 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 4: should be doing this twice a month at least, having 681 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 4: these interesting conversations in depth. Angels Studios has a new 682 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 4: feature film that is a must see, and I really 683 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 4: really mean it. This film tells the untold story of 684 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 4: George Washington before he was a general or a president. 685 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 4: At just twenty years old, Washington faced crushing failures, near 686 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 4: death experiences, and pivotal moments that forge the courage, the character, 687 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 4: and the leadership that would one day shape the United States. 688 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 4: Angel Studios and Wonder Project have joined forces to bring 689 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 4: you a high quality production that doesn't erase the values 690 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 4: that made George Washington who he was.

I don't know what to 723 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 2: say about. 724 00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 5: So now. 725 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 13: We have this idea that these insurgent democrats, and what 726 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 13: is their solution. Is there a solution to beat Republicans, 727 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 13: to run against Republicans. No, their solution is to beat democrats. 728 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 13: Like that part of the problem. No, you are part 729 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 13: of the problem because you're an idiot. 730 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 4: That's the wonderful James Carville with the great bedside manner 731 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 4: as only he can have, lamenting the rise of DSA, 732 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 4: which we all should.

You've you've 746 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 4: seen it coming for a long time. Sean, You've been 747 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 4: warning about this for a long time. They are ascendant. 748 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 4: There is no doubt about it. I mean, if you 749 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 4: just look at this Israel Aid vote that just happened yesterday, 750 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 4: I guess they did this with two years ago, eighteen 751 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 4: months ago, and they got about thirty thirty five votes 752 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 4: to end it. Now they're at one hundred and four 753 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 4: hundred and five. It is ascendant. 754 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,800 Speaker 5: What are you looking at when you're assessing the problem 755 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 5: that DSA poses for the country and for Democrats specifically. 756 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 14: Yeah, and first, Andrew, I'd say that our side needs 757 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 14: to understand something that this is not a joke, don't. 758 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 14: I mean, I think it's scary, and it's kind of 759 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 14: funny that people are the stupid that they're buying into it, 760 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 14: but don't take it lightly. And we saw now the 761 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 14: spread of it go from New York out to Colorado 762 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 14: and throughout the country. And my point is, I think 763 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 14: there's some things that sometimes in the movement you see 764 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 14: and you go, that's crazy, and that's insane. That's true, 765 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 14: But I also think that we can't ignore it. That 766 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 14: more more people are being told they can have free, 767 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 14: this free, that there are no consequences to their policies. 768 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:08,360 Speaker 14: I was in New York last week for the International 769 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 14: Naval Review and I said to somebody at one point, 770 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,800 Speaker 14: I said, look at the buses, the city buses that 771 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 14: were going by. And they kind of looked up and 772 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 14: they said, Okay, what am I looking at? And I said, 773 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:19,919 Speaker 14: what is the sign saying? You know, on the front 774 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 14: whear it tells you what the route is. So it 775 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 14: says the route right and four whatever the code is. 776 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 14: And the next thing that flashes is fair required. Now 777 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 14: you would think that's kind of silly, like, why would 778 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 14: I have to say fair required. Well, the reason it 779 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 14: says it is because the people in New York, after 780 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 14: the election of Zora Mundahmi, believed that they were going 781 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 14: to get free buses. And then Zora Undami got elected 782 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 14: and the harsh reality of budgets set in and they 783 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,399 Speaker 14: realized that's insane. You can't just give everything away for free, 784 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 14: like the guy. But the lesson here is understand that 785 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 14: these guys are running around talking about free this, free that. 786 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 14: And one of the things that I did on my 787 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 14: show was don't take my word for it, don't take 788 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 14: turning point us say word for it, don't take Donald 789 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:05,720 Speaker 14: Trump's word for it. Go to the DSA website look 790 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 14: at what they say. Therefore, what they want to do. 791 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 14: They want to abolish this United States Senate like this 792 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 14: is crazy town. 793 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 4: We have that clip shown, No, this is true, this 794 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 4: is true. Let's play this clip just to underscore your point. 795 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 5: How crazy. 796 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 4: They want to literally get rid of everything that has 797 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 4: made America America. They want to get rid of the 798 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 4: founder's vision and that's not overstating the matter. 799 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,840 Speaker 15: It's not twenty We just don't see the point of 800 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 15: the Senate. Historically it was meant to serve very wealthy 801 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 15: people who owned a lot of land, and that's still 802 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 15: a system that we have today, and it's something we 803 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 15: would change. We would expand what the House of Representatives 804 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 15: does and make it more actually representative of people who 805 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 15: live in this country. 806 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 5: So would you like to abolish the Senate? 807 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 15: That's part of our platform. And we don't think that's extreme. 808 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 15: We think it's a change that would help make this 809 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 15: done free, more democratic. 810 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 9: What stands out about that? To me, it's extreme. 811 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 6: It would completely upend two and a half centuries of 812 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:13,840 Speaker 6: America's governance project, a very successful constitution we've had. But 813 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 6: at the same time, keep in mind, an ordinary American 814 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 6: is just gonna hear they abolish to send it make 815 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 6: it more democratic. There's no immediate consequence to that, And 816 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 6: so I think when he says something like that, it's 817 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 6: a challenge to those of us to basically say, the 818 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 6: reason you can't have that happen is because it will 819 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 6: upend good things our government is doing for you. And 820 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 6: if our government is failing, if our government is not 821 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,879 Speaker 6: helping young people build wealth, get homes, accomplish the things 822 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 6: they want in life. People will just hear abolish a Senate. 823 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 6: Oh that sounds cool, shake everything, blow it all up. 824 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 6: They'll go for it. And New York shows that can happen. 825 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 14: That's why I use the free bust analogy. Though, is 826 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 14: that offering somebody something for free and it's easy? You know, 827 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 14: I'm always I joke. I thinks it's funny. I'm the 828 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 14: sucker every time you walk in, you know, go on 829 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 14: vacation than they do a timeshare setup. I'm like, oh 830 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 14: my god, look a free bottle of wine. If I 831 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 14: listen to a one hour presentation, she's like, is this 832 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 14: you can afford the bottle of wine? Like why are 833 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 14: you doing this? But there's something alluring about free stuff 834 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 14: and easy stuff, and so you're absolutely right when you 835 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 14: talk about eliminating the Senate because it's more democratic. Wow, 836 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 14: that's I like more democratic. I like that, that's cool, 837 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 14: Like we should do it. Until you realize that part 838 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 14: of the reason the Founders gave us the Senate was 839 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 14: a check on the House, so that you know, God 840 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 14: forbid Keem Jeffries and the nut jobs take it over 841 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 14: that they don't just have free rain to do crazy stuff. 842 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 14: There's a reason for some of these things, and when 843 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 14: you offer someone a simple or easy or free solution, 844 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 14: usually it's for a reason. We see this in social 845 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 14: media all the time. People say, oh, it's great, it's free. Well, 846 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 14: there's a reason that it's freeze because they're gathering all 847 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 14: your data and what's that trade off look like. But 848 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 14: there's constantly trade offs that we have to make. And 849 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 14: what the DSA is offering people is a lot of 850 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 14: bumper sticker stuff like free this, free that, get rid 851 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 14: of this, make this easier. It is very attractive. I 852 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 14: get it. And that's why what I'm trying to say 853 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 14: to folks is, do not think this is nuts. That 854 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:09,240 Speaker 14: there's an audience that's very appealing to that they're building 855 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 14: and they're not doing it just in some little vacuum. 856 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,719 Speaker 14: In a lot of urban areas, people are finding a 857 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 14: lot of this freeze the rent stuff very attractive, and 858 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 14: I just I think that we've got to be careful 859 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 14: that we start informing. Particularly what you guys do is 860 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 14: so important where you've got a much younger audience than 861 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:28,640 Speaker 14: a lot of us who are out there, and that 862 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 14: people don't get bought into at a young age, this 863 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 14: notion of everything is easy, everything is free, there's no 864 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 14: consequences for anything. We can just get rid of all 865 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 14: the bad things that we hear we don't like. So 866 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 14: I think it's critical that we are smart and informative 867 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 14: and make sure that we explain a lot of these 868 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 14: things a lot more and not just take them for granted. 869 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 14: There's a lot that I think the government doesn't do 870 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 14: well or effectively, in fact, most of it. But I 871 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 14: don't think that that means you throw the baby out 872 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 14: with the bathwater every time. And that's what the DSA 873 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 14: is doing, Like we're just gonna give everyone free healthcare. 874 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,840 Speaker 14: It's okay, okay, what does that mean. It's the budget 875 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,359 Speaker 14: impact to that, and. 876 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 4: It's freestep populism. It's something Charlie warned about, and it's 877 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 4: completely alluring and intoxicating and it's deductive. It doesn't work, 878 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 4: and that's the big problem. But I think what this 879 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 4: guy is getting at, it's almost like they're following the 880 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 4: right wing critique, the right wing populist critique. One of 881 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 4: the things we say on this show all the time 882 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 4: is that the Senate has broken. Mike Lee says, the 883 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 4: Senate has broken. We just had Senator Eric Schmidt. He's 884 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:23,760 Speaker 4: saying the Senate is broken. 885 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 5: And so these. 886 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 4: Institutions are essentially falling down on the job, and they're 887 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 4: giving an opening for these radical left wing lunatics that 888 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:36,839 Speaker 4: are importing foreign ideologies, foreign tribalism, and foreign communism into 889 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 4: the American system. They're giving them an opening because they're 890 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 4: not doing their job. They're allowing the Senate to get 891 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 4: completely bogged down in procedural and parliamentary issues. 892 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 5: So I don't know if you have a thought on that. 893 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, we just spoke to Senator Eric Schmidt about 894 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 6: the say back, that's past the House, it's waiting on 895 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 6: the Senate. If Americans here over and over again, we 896 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 6: could have this change that seems desirable, except the Senate's 897 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 6: in a way. They'll blow up the Senate and America 898 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 6: will be we can't go back from that. 899 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 14: Well, and that's right clear. 900 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 5: I don't think they have the power to overturn the 901 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 5: Senate right now, Sean, because it's pretty ingrained. No, no, no, 902 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 5: but they're changing the Overton window. 903 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 14: Yeah, correct, not just that, but also like you know, 904 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 14: maybe you get rid of one piece, you know, you 905 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 14: start to chip away, and there's things like I remember 906 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 14: ten years ago laughing at the notion of pronouns like 907 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 14: are you insane? This is like the dumbest thing I've 908 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 14: ever heard of. Who would have thought, I mean, just 909 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,720 Speaker 14: stop and think about you talk about the Overton window shifting, 910 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 14: the idea that we're having a debate about what a 911 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 14: woman is, and and the chancellor of U see San Francisco, 912 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 14: I think it was testified in front of Congress this 913 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 14: week and said, I will admit this is again he's 914 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 14: the chancellor of university that the majority of births happened 915 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 14: to women. And I'm like, nope, not the majority, but 916 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 14: the idea that that is even something that can that 917 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 14: is a discussion is insane. And so when I say 918 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 14: I'm warning people, it's if you said to me ten 919 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 14: years ago we'd be having this debate, I would tell 920 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 14: you are nuts. And we're now having this debate, and 921 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,359 Speaker 14: I go, just trust me, it's inching towards us. 922 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:12,479 Speaker 3: Well. 923 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 4: And if you think that sounds extreme, all of a 924 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 4: sudden pack in the Supreme Court doesn't seem so crazy anymore. 925 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 4: Hi folks, Andrew Colvett here, I'd like to tell you 926 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 4: about my friends over at why Refi.

I've had a lot of people 958 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 16: ask me, Joe, what have you been doing. I've written 959 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:02,840 Speaker 16: a book about my timers president. It's called Promise Me America. 960 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 16: It's about to challenge we face as a nation about 961 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:14,320 Speaker 16: the decisions I made why I made them. Leading in 962 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 16: the country through COVID, rebuilding our economy and restoring our 963 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 16: democracy after the attack on January sixth, any in our 964 00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:28,800 Speaker 16: nation's longest war in Afghanistan, strengthening NATA, and supporting Ukraine. 965 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 16: It's about why I chose to run for re election 966 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:35,280 Speaker 16: and why I chose to step aside. 967 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:37,759 Speaker 2: I hope who read it, and I hope it strengthens 968 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:38,920 Speaker 2: your faith in what we can do. 969 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:40,720 Speaker 16: Is a nation and a people. 970 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 5: You know, I want to book. 971 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 4: It's called Promise Me America, but it should be titled opposite. 972 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:52,239 Speaker 4: Like anything he suggests why he did something, do the 973 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 4: opposite of it. 974 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 5: It should be the opposite book. Go ahead, Blake. 975 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 3: I want to. 976 00:47:55,120 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 6: See President Biden ambushed somewhere and someone just asks him 977 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 6: what is said in this book? 978 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, that's that's the Well. The reason why that's 979 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 14: an important question is he didn't write it and he 980 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 14: didn't read it, and the video's painful to watch. I mean, look, 981 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 14: here's the deal. I I'm dead serious when I say 982 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 14: I'm in political junkie, Like I'll read anything. I read 983 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 14: Currn John Pierre's book. I'm the person.

That's a joke. 987 00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 14: I mean, let's be honest. There's no one in their 988 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 14: right mind that believes that he wrote it, that he 989 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 14: knows what's in it. 990 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 2: So like that. 991 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 14: That's But the the other thing is I made the 992 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 14: point at the at the top Andrew about it being 993 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,319 Speaker 14: a trailer for a reason because a trailer, like we 994 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:55,840 Speaker 14: see him all the time for movies. Is meant to 995 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 14: get people excited, like go watch this movie. Tom Cruise 996 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 14: flies off of nowon air playing and whatever he jumps off, 997 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,280 Speaker 14: like wow, I gotta go see it, right, I don't 998 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 14: think that did it that. That scares me to think 999 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:13,360 Speaker 14: that he could have likes that's an edited Hollywood trailer 1000 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 14: and he sounds like I I literally I will I 1001 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 14: will do this, play it again, and you guys try 1002 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 14: to uh annotate it for me. I didn't understand how. 1003 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 2: Joe. 1004 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 14: I'm like, what did he say? And that's the edited 1005 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 14: version he honestly reaction. What is the first line. 1006 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 5: That he'd I'm not play again. I won't play that 1007 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 5: again for it again. I can't put our audience through this. 1008 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 14: Do you know how many takes they had to have done. 1009 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 14: Finally they were like, we'll use that one. We'll use 1010 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:45,919 Speaker 14: that one. 1011 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,439 Speaker 5: Like they got a forty five minute window. That's all 1012 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:49,600 Speaker 5: they got, Sean. 1013 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 14: And it's just so that's like, look, and this thing 1014 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 14: got pushed back. Initially, it was supposed to be in September, 1015 00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 14: and I think everybody said, no, you cannot have this 1016 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 14: come out before the election. We do not need to 1017 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 14: have another discussion about how how incompetent you were. And 1018 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 14: also that's again one last thing, one last thing the 1019 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 14: issues he brings up. I recovered the nation from January sixth? 1020 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 14: What what was it that you did? Number one? Number two? 1021 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,520 Speaker 14: I led the country through coronavirus, really knowing what we 1022 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 14: know now you want to take credit for that. I 1023 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 14: took us out of Afghanistan. Holy, I mean, like, what 1024 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 14: is missing with this? I also pardoned Hunter. I mean, 1025 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 14: what what did you he didn't? These are your highlights? 1026 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 14: Oh my gosh, that's it. 1027 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,319 Speaker 5: That's all he's got. That's all he's got, Sean. But 1028 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 5: interestingly enough, I think that inside is key. 1029 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 4: He's doing it after the midterms because they don't want 1030 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:43,760 Speaker 4: him to, you know, be a weight on Democrat candidates 1031 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 4: across the country. We are now back in this conflict 1032 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,800 Speaker 4: with Iran. It's now Connecticut again. We're bombing. It's the 1033 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 4: MoU is not proceeding at this point. 1034 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 5: Now. 1035 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 4: They said they want to call they released a prisoner. 1036 00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 4: They want to talk again. Okay, fine, talk about you 1037 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 4: are watching the mid terms very very close. So you 1038 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 4: got two minutes. The floor is yours. What are our chances, 1039 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:07,840 Speaker 4: what do you predicts going to happen? 1040 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 14: All right, So look, here's what I'll tell you about Iran. 1041 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 14: Iran is politically there's no upsides, zero, not whatever. President 1042 00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:17,000 Speaker 14: Trump did this for the right reasons. I believe that 1043 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 14: making sure that Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon and 1044 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 14: making sure that the threat of Iran stays on their 1045 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 14: shores not ours is the right, right policy decision. It 1046 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,440 Speaker 14: wasn't a political decision. It's the kind of thing you 1047 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 14: do as president for the good of the country, and 1048 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:32,959 Speaker 14: he did the right thing politically speaking. There's three things 1049 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 14: that Republicans need to do. One, tell us what you did? 1050 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:37,799 Speaker 14: What did you do to make our lives better? Why 1051 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 14: are we in the place that we are now? Two, 1052 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 14: what will you do to make our lives even better? More, better, 1053 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 14: better or or if that's a phrase. And then three 1054 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 14: is remind us the downside of the alternative, which is 1055 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 14: the Democratic Party, and how bad they would be and 1056 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 14: how crazy their policies are. They need to do that 1057 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 14: and that's the only thing they should do. Now, why 1058 00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 14: do we have what do we have in our favor? 1059 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,759 Speaker 14: Redistricting that picks up about twelve to fourteen seats that 1060 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:06,240 Speaker 14: gives us I mean, like anything else. Twelve to fourteen 1061 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 14: right off the goal right, So that's how many points 1062 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 14: we have on the board. That helps us too. We 1063 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,439 Speaker 14: have a massive financial advantage in terms of money raised, 1064 00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 14: and the Supreme Court gave us a huge win last week. 1065 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:19,800 Speaker 14: And three. The Democrats are in massive disarrays we discussed 1066 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:22,440 Speaker 14: just a minute ago in terms of their socialist tendencies. 1067 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 14: We are in good shape. I have the Senate right now. 1068 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 14: Republicans keep it. It might be fifty two, it might 1069 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 14: be fifty one, but we keep it in the house 1070 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 14: right now. I've got us at two hundred and twelve seats, 1071 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 14: which means we're six short of taken the majority. We 1072 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 14: have eighteen seats in play, meaning Republicans need to win 1073 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 14: one of every three seats to maintain a majority. I 1074 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,799 Speaker 14: like those odds, especially with the advantages that I just 1075 00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 14: pushed out. Anyone who tells you that it's a foregone 1076 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:50,319 Speaker 14: conclusion is a moron, does not understand how it all works. 1077 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,719 Speaker 14: Anyone who tells you in leads by historically speaking is 1078 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 14: admitting their ignorance to how politics works. We have a 1079 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,080 Speaker 14: massive financial advantage. We have a masters's registricting advantage and 1080 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 14: the Dems are in disarray. I'm not saying we're going 1081 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 14: to keep it, but I think we have a really 1082 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 14: good chance. 1083 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:08,240 Speaker 4: Just keep rolling those DSA clips on every ad. 1084 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 5: Sean Spicer, thank you, my friend. We'll see me back. 1085 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 14: Guys, pay care. 1086 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 4: Good conversation is about respect. It's how we create a 1087 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 4: space where people are able to share their ideas and 1088 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 4: be heard. Charlie knew that Turning Points still knows that, 1089 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 4: and TikTok has always strived to build the kind of 1090 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 4: place that thrives on respectful connection, where curiosity fuels connection 1091 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 4: and we can share what's on our minds and learn 1092 00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 4: from each other. When ideas meet respect, good things happen. 1093 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 4: On TikTok. You can find a mechanic explaining the why 1094 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 4: behind a problem most of us wouldn't even know how 1095 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 4: to name, or a father sharing a lifetime of knowledge 1096 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 4: with his viewers. Viewers who listen discuss, and then they respond. 1097 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 4: TikTok turns connection into community through small acts of understanding. 1098 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,399 Speaker 4: You can feel it in the comments and the thank 1099 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 4: you from a stranger halfway across the world. TikTok is 1100 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 4: a place where respect opens the door for discussion and 1101 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 4: discussion helps us spilled something real.

Let's get back to work. 1152 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 18: We're going to begin with a few scheduling announcements tonight, 1153 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 18: as you all know, at nine o'clock PM Eastern, President 1154 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,360 Speaker 18: Trump will deliver a major rest to the nation on 1155 00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:04,240 Speaker 18: protecting the integrity of our elections. 1156 00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 4: So that was the first thing she said coming back 1157 00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:09,960 Speaker 4: to the podium at the White as White House Press 1158 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:15,560 Speaker 4: Secretary Alex I'm hesitant to expect too much because I've 1159 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:18,360 Speaker 4: been so disappointed on this front so many times. I 1160 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:20,840 Speaker 4: think it's something everybody in this audience is willing to acknowledge. 1161 00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:22,720 Speaker 4: We have problems in our election. Just look at Spencer 1162 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 4: Pratt in LA. Look at so many issues too big 1163 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:29,160 Speaker 4: to rig. We believe that Trump won despite shenanigans. We 1164 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:31,880 Speaker 4: might have lost some Senate seats because of shenanigans, especially 1165 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:32,760 Speaker 4: in the Upper Midwest. 1166 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,280 Speaker 5: What are you expecting? What are you hearing about tonight's presser. 1167 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:40,320 Speaker 17: Yeah, he is a man who takes election integrity very seriously. 1168 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 17: It's interesting because you guys have been kind to promote 1169 00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 17: over and over again my last book, Breaking the law 1170 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 17: where I go through all these cases against President Trump, 1171 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,840 Speaker 17: and a lot of them were kind of predicated on 1172 00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:53,840 Speaker 17: him thinking it was sort of an act that he 1173 00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:56,680 Speaker 17: was fired up about twenty twenty being stolen, that people 1174 00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 17: thought that there was just something he was using to manipulate. 1175 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 17: But he is unequivocally convinced that that election got stolen 1176 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 17: from him. It's not a joke. He's not faking it. 1177 00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:08,879 Speaker 17: This is not some sort of a calculation. That he 1178 00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:11,440 Speaker 17: really believes it, and so that is core to his 1179 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 17: being because I think he feels like that cascade of 1180 00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 17: not being president massive humiliation. All of the lawsuits, the 1181 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 17: j six, kangaroo court, all of that came from that 1182 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 17: election getting stolen, and when you see the. 1183 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 2: Math, it just doesn't add up. 1184 00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 17: I could do all the list of Biden getting a 1185 00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 17: record level of votes, the Mark Zuckerberg drop boxes, which 1186 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 17: looks like they've since made up over that, which is interesting. 1187 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 17: But so many improprieties in that election and all the 1188 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:37,720 Speaker 17: things in Georgia where all of a sudden they were 1189 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:40,640 Speaker 17: accepting all these ballots they never would have accepted until 1190 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 17: weeks before when the rules were changed. All these improprieties. 1191 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,880 Speaker 17: Trump is thinking we got to stop this. And then 1192 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 17: you see case after case after case, all these Democrats 1193 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:52,160 Speaker 17: lately admitting they'll never win another election if they have 1194 00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:54,720 Speaker 17: voter ID, at least not in the swing states, if 1195 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 17: you have to bring a voter ID to the polls. 1196 00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 2: And then you look at. 1197 00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 17: California where I'm at, where they mail out ballots to 1198 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 17: people who are ineligible to vote. The craziest thing you 1199 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 17: could ever imagine. If you want to have election integrity, 1200 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 17: we proactively give ballots to ineligible people. Trump is looking 1201 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 17: at all that and saying, we got to do something 1202 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:15,959 Speaker 17: or else. I'm not as successful as. 1203 00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:16,240 Speaker 5: I can be. 1204 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, on that note, let's go ahead and play this. 1205 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:19,640 Speaker 4: I want to play this earlier. I'm going to do 1206 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 4: it now. And this is Joe Rogan to JD Vance 1207 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:25,720 Speaker 4: on the California elections, specifically Spencer Pratt top five. 1208 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 5: Well, it's just. 1209 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 10: Very disheartening that you have to consider the fact that 1210 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:38,160 Speaker 10: it's really possible that the elections get stolen, and the 1211 00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 10: California one was a big one for me. 1212 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 19: I'm not every country does it. I'm not skeptical. I'm 1213 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 19: accusing them. I think they stole the elections, yes, and 1214 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 19: I think it's common, and I you know, this idea 1215 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 19: that elections can't be stolen. I always say to people, Okay, 1216 00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:58,360 Speaker 19: do you think that the amount of election fraud is 1217 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 19: zero percent? No one thinks that, And I think they cheat, 1218 00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 19: and I think they've been done it forever. And I 1219 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 19: don't think there's any other reason why you would have 1220 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:07,760 Speaker 19: no voter. 1221 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:09,640 Speaker 9: Id watching that. 1222 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:14,120 Speaker 6: I just think about I'd have this conversation with Charlie 1223 00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 6: and with others, And as you said, do you think 1224 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 6: it's zero percent? Well, if it's not zero percent, where's 1225 00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 6: it coming from? And so much of it is. Yet, 1226 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 6: if you're sending ballots to ineligible people, or you're sending 1227 00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 6: ballots to just literally anyone, and you're allowing people to 1228 00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 6: be paid to get people to sign up, paid to 1229 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 6: collect ballots, people can harvest as many ballots as they want. 1230 00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:39,440 Speaker 6: You're decentralizing the process. And I think that's the real 1231 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 6: secret weapon that democrats have benefited from, is when they 1232 00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:45,720 Speaker 6: can decentralize the process of potential fraud. 1233 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 9: Like mail ballots. 1234 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:49,880 Speaker 6: You send a mail ballot to everyone, and someone goes 1235 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 6: and they fill out all of their family's ballots. They 1236 00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 6: nag them to sign it they hand it to a harvester, 1237 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 6: turn it in. That is illegal behavior, That is a crime. 1238 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 6: Is that a crime that's ever going to be prosecuted. 1239 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:04,680 Speaker 6: Definitely not in the state of California. And when you 1240 01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 6: play that out all over the country, you leave people 1241 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,720 Speaker 6: with a process that they feel they can't trust. Oh, 1242 01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 6: and they're collecting ballots of course in days and weeks 1243 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 6: after the official election day. They have a process they 1244 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 6: don't trust. They have a process where there's little bits 1245 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,200 Speaker 6: here and there that you can insert votes that shouldn't 1246 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:25,200 Speaker 6: be counted, and people don't trust it. And the President 1247 01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 6: is so correct to fight for a process that not 1248 01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:33,080 Speaker 6: only makes fraud harder, but especially looks like it is 1249 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 6: a lot less fraudulent and fairer or otherwise people are 1250 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:37,320 Speaker 6: gonna check out and think it's all all fake. 1251 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 2: I got to say that watching this clip. 1252 01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 17: Yeah, JD had a great JD had a great response 1253 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:43,919 Speaker 17: where he said, well, if you guys think there's no fraud, 1254 01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:45,520 Speaker 17: then just let us have the IDs and then we'll 1255 01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 17: feel better about it. 1256 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 2: Then you can prove how all of us are wrong, 1257 01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 2: which that was a great point. 1258 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 17: But if you look at it and they do it 1259 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 17: in California id's are banned like you can't even you 1260 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 17: can't even show them. 1261 01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 2: Homeless are obviously paid to vote. There's no way to 1262 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 2: stop that is happening. 1263 01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 17: Ballad harvesting where people allowed to collect votes, so you 1264 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:00,600 Speaker 17: don't even have to go and go to get to 1265 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 17: a mailbox to be able to vote, so the least 1266 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 17: interested people are voting. There's ballot curing, so there's any mistakes, 1267 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,880 Speaker 17: you can then fix your vote quote unquote mistakes. We 1268 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 17: count ballots long after election day. The signature verification is 1269 01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:16,280 Speaker 17: non existent. Voter roles don't ever get depleted and audited. 1270 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:20,120 Speaker 17: It's non stop, every single place where you could find fraud. 1271 01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:21,960 Speaker 17: And this is why Blake's point is the most important 1272 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,760 Speaker 17: point you can make is the decentralization. There's so many 1273 01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 17: ways and moments where you can interfere and cheat, and 1274 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 17: that's why they like that system because they know it'd 1275 01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 17: take a herculean effort to police solve it. So we 1276 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 17: need to have much more standardization and make it sure 1277 01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 17: that there are fewer fail points, fewer points where you're 1278 01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 17: in a scenario where someone can manipulate. 1279 01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:42,120 Speaker 6: One of the biggest ones that stands out to me 1280 01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:43,920 Speaker 6: and I just remember this. Think about the number of 1281 01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 6: people we have in care homes, people getting dementia, Alzheimer's, 1282 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:51,400 Speaker 6: people who clearly do not really have the ability to 1283 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 6: know what ballot they're casting. What we've had endless suspicious 1284 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:57,360 Speaker 6: cases where a lot of ballots have been collected from 1285 01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:00,080 Speaker 6: a care home. You can imagine these terrors going on. 1286 01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:01,840 Speaker 6: Who do you want to have a vote? Oh, I 1287 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,440 Speaker 6: can help you fill out this ballot. You're always allowed 1288 01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 6: to help people fill out ballots. You can provide interpreters 1289 01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:10,440 Speaker 6: on ballots, one of the most obvious ways. And are 1290 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:12,840 Speaker 6: we going to be able to have investigators go and 1291 01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:17,600 Speaker 6: police every nursing home, prosecute every nurse or caregiver who 1292 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 6: does something suspicious. There's so much of that out there, 1293 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:24,160 Speaker 6: and it says everything that Democrats are just going to 1294 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 6: put their hand down say there's no problem. We're not 1295 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,720 Speaker 6: going to look for a problem. We're going to claim 1296 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 6: there's no problems, specifically because we don't investigate, and then 1297 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 6: we can say, oh, no one, no one ever gets 1298 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 6: convicted of this since we don't investigate for it. It's 1299 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 6: it's just such a giant travesty and a sham and 1300 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:40,040 Speaker 6: a lot of the people where we. 1301 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,360 Speaker 4: Came from as a country. Yeah, when we come where 1302 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 4: we came from as a country, where we had you know, 1303 01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 4: the vote was sacricynct, it was landed gentry. And then 1304 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 4: and then we push forward this whole universal suffrage movement, 1305 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,920 Speaker 4: and now it's sort of like, well, even you know, 1306 01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 4: immigrants should be able to vote. I mean, the bestation 1307 01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 4: of how much value we place in a vote. And 1308 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:07,760 Speaker 4: the disenfranchisement of actual Americans because we can't trust our 1309 01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:11,880 Speaker 4: own elections is truly a civic sin. I mean, it really, 1310 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:15,320 Speaker 4: really is such a sin. And I totally applaud the President. 1311 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 4: I back his play one thousand percent on this and 1312 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:20,680 Speaker 4: jd Vance's in this, because if we cannot trust our 1313 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 4: own elections, then the whole thing's a sham. And the 1314 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 4: fact that they are admitting openly that they will not 1315 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 4: be able to win elections in some places if they 1316 01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 4: don't have these loose standards is as a pure and 1317 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 4: unadulterated indictment of their own position. They are cheating, they 1318 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:38,800 Speaker 4: are rigging the game. This is what they've been doing 1319 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:40,960 Speaker 4: for decades, and they're getting called in account. And I'm 1320 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 4: listening to I was in the break I was listening 1321 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 4: to some of these questions from uh yeah, I forget 1322 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:48,480 Speaker 4: his name, Garrett from NBC. I've actually met Garrett, nice guy, 1323 01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:50,720 Speaker 4: but he's asking why won't Trump drop this? He won 1324 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:54,160 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four. We won despite your cheating. We 1325 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:57,080 Speaker 4: won despite it, and it's the problem is not anywhere 1326 01:03:57,120 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 4: near to being fixed. And the fact they play dumb 1327 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:00,960 Speaker 4: on this and act like we're bunch of looney tune 1328 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,600 Speaker 4: conspiracy theorists because we're still asking questions is just absolutely 1329 01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 4: nuts because there's a lot there. There's a lot there. 1330 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 4: There is a lot there, especially when it comes to 1331 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:14,040 Speaker 4: election integrity. All right, So, Alex, you were at the 1332 01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:17,680 Speaker 4: Defense Innovation Summit in PA yesterday. Trump spoke at that. 1333 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:22,360 Speaker 4: You did a great job covering it. But this question 1334 01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 4: came up earlier in the show with Senator Eric Schmidt. 1335 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,080 Speaker 4: A lot of people are talking about this two nineteen 1336 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 4: section two nineteen of the NDAA, this proposed cooperative with 1337 01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 4: is Israel on intelligence and defense. Have you looked into 1338 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 4: this at all and do you have a perspective on it? 1339 01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:44,040 Speaker 4: This is not an anti Israel sentiment for me at all. Actually, 1340 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 4: it just feels like something we shouldn't be doing in general. 1341 01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 4: I mean, we've already proven that we can coordinate with 1342 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,880 Speaker 4: the Israelis very effectively when it came to Iran. 1343 01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:54,880 Speaker 5: Why do we need to go in deeper? That's my question. 1344 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:57,920 Speaker 17: Yeah, I think that that's always a reasonable question. I 1345 01:04:57,960 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 17: think that a lot of people that I talked to 1346 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:04,600 Speaker 17: within the the White House who are not necessarily buddied 1347 01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:06,200 Speaker 17: up with a lot of the people who dominate the 1348 01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:09,440 Speaker 17: podcast space, I really do say that the intelligence we 1349 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 17: get from the Israelis is second to none. 1350 01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:13,919 Speaker 2: It is the top that we can get. 1351 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:17,000 Speaker 17: And I've been very critical of their pr as was 1352 01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 17: Charlie over the last year. 1353 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:20,760 Speaker 2: I think they've not been helpful. 1354 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:23,440 Speaker 17: In the Iran war in general, but I maintain overall, 1355 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:25,720 Speaker 17: people on the inside tell me that their intelligence is 1356 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 17: it is the best, and doing things to facilitate getting 1357 01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:32,120 Speaker 17: that intelligence. It doesn't really have to do necessarily with 1358 01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:33,920 Speaker 17: what you think personally of net Yahoo and how he's 1359 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:35,760 Speaker 17: running his government. And I think that that's an important 1360 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:39,680 Speaker 17: thing to think about contextually. But it is always good 1361 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:44,400 Speaker 17: to re appraise allies and adversaries, and Trump is amazing 1362 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:46,120 Speaker 17: at this, and I think he's been really wise to 1363 01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 17: do this, and it comes from I think him having 1364 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:51,120 Speaker 17: a open heart and open mind to certain things. Just 1365 01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 17: the thought that Saudi Arabia and Qatar would be close 1366 01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:56,600 Speaker 17: allies with us ten years ago would have been unthinkable, 1367 01:05:56,800 --> 01:05:58,200 Speaker 17: and then now we're here, and I. 1368 01:05:58,120 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 2: Think that's a benefit. 1369 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 17: And it also puts some heath on his threats to 1370 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:04,360 Speaker 17: countries like NATO, where if you think we're friends, then 1371 01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 17: you better behave like friends. Georgia Maloney, we love you, 1372 01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:09,040 Speaker 17: but if you're not gonna let us use bases when 1373 01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:12,760 Speaker 17: we're doing a strategic bombing of Iran, he's not gonna 1374 01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 17: forget that and there's gonna be consequences. And I love 1375 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,919 Speaker 17: that posture. So anything that reevaluates stuff, I'm always cool 1376 01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 17: with it. But is really intelligence pretty good? 1377 01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:20,920 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1378 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 4: No, I think it's good. But we already cooperate with them. 1379 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 4: We already are, you know, very closely in connection. We 1380 01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:31,400 Speaker 4: communicate well, we're obviously we're capable of launching very effective 1381 01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:35,520 Speaker 4: strikes in Iran. Why do we need to further sort 1382 01:06:35,560 --> 01:06:39,200 Speaker 4: of connect the dots behind the scenes or develop tech 1383 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,200 Speaker 4: when it seems like why fix if it ain't broken? 1384 01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 4: And I've asked my sources, and a lot of people 1385 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 4: don't see that there is a problem I don't understand. 1386 01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:49,720 Speaker 4: And there is some indication that Benjamin and Yaho's the 1387 01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:52,439 Speaker 4: one advancing this. Yeah, you were gonna chime in there. 1388 01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:52,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1389 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,200 Speaker 17: I just am curious who are the best fokes people 1390 01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:58,720 Speaker 17: for it and against it, because it seems like a 1391 01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:01,480 Speaker 17: lot of Thomas Massey Rocan people who are always trying 1392 01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:02,840 Speaker 17: to get in front of a microphone or behind a 1393 01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 17: keyboard to rage about Israel. It seems like those are 1394 01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:08,439 Speaker 17: the guys who are are the biggest, the most vocal people. 1395 01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:09,960 Speaker 17: So I'm trying to see who's going to emerge and 1396 01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:13,480 Speaker 17: make a really not a necessarily a social media friendly case, 1397 01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 17: but like a serious case one way or the other. 1398 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:16,440 Speaker 2: And I don't know who to turn to in that 1399 01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:17,360 Speaker 2: at the moment. 1400 01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I've heard that one of them.
