ICE agents 3 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: are now at more airports across the country. But can 4 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: they possibly expedite to your process as you go through 5 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: TSA Well, I will find out personally tomorrow when I 6 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: travel to Texas for seedbec Stand by later this sweek 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: for more information on that front. Meanwhile, another horrific Lake 8 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: and O'Reilly esque murder by an illegal alien to a young, 9 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: innocent eighteen year old girl out in the second city 10 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: in the city of Chicago. All sorts of things happening 11 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 1: when it comes to Iran and the Middle East more 12 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: generally speaking, is this stand off between the United States 13 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: and Israel? Has that standoff finally arrived or is it 14 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: potentially in the making. We will unpath that at all 15 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: and much more in todays show, but for now we 16 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: begin with this What does it mean to be on 17 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: the left? We talk a lot on the show about 18 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: what it means to be on the rights. If you 19 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: are of, by and for the rights and means, among 20 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,959 Speaker 1: other things, that you stand for true, you stand for 21 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: your civilization, you stand for your nation, you stand for 22 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: your tribe, your family, and your people. You believe that 23 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: your way of life, that your worldview, that your values, principles, 24 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: your customs, and all that ultimately constitutes the broader way 25 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: that we do things in this country. You believe in that. 26 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: You believe that it is superior, and you believe in 27 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: that intergenerational chain of transmission to pass down what we do, 28 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: how we think, how we ought to think, how we 29 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 1: ought to act, and laws and customs. It is this 30 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: emphasis on inherited tradition, this dissemination of tradition from one 31 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: generation to the next, all ultimately rooted in eternal truths, 32 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: in the Bible above all, and in the natural law, 33 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: the transcendental order. This is all what it means to 34 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: be on the right. But what does it mean to 35 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: be on the left? Well, by contrast, if the right 36 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: stands for intergenerational transmission and civilizational inheritance, and stands for 37 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: doing something the way that our forefathers did, the wisdom, 38 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: body and tradition, not blowing things up and bringing things down. 39 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: On the contrary, the left stands for naturally the opposite. 40 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: The left stands for breaking with tradition, in rejecting eternal 41 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: truths and the transcendental order above all, really in rejecting 42 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: God himself, and in rejecting the very notion that there 43 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: is only such thing as true utopia from a biblical 44 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: respect of in the Kingdom of God, that there will 45 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: never actually be true utopia here in the kingdom of Man. 46 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: The left rejects that. The left believes that, frankly, that 47 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: there is no God, or if he exists, he exists 48 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: in some sort of minimize deistic fashion. He's not actively 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: involved in human affairs, he doesn't bother, he doesn't care. 50 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: So it is incumbent upon human beings who try to 51 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: construct utopian schemes here in this mortal coil. Throughout Western history, 52 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: indeed throughout American history, that has taken the form of aggressively, 53 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: aggressively going against not just the ruling class, not just 54 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: the DC political establishment, but indeed in going against the 55 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: United States of America. 56 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 2: There is a. 57 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: Long, long, long history, a deeply inglorious one of leftists 58 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: in America opposing the country that they purport and profess 59 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: to love, when they even bother or daem to do so. 60 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: I'm thinking to hear about the first and second Red Scares. 61 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: The first Red Scare happening around the time of World 62 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: War One, the second Red Scare happening during the era 63 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 1: of Sender McCarthy. McCarthyism as the left tended to deride 64 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: that movement, as there is a long history of anarchism 65 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: on the American left, people like Emma Goldman. Anarchists actually 66 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: ultimate assassinated President William McKinley. That was done at the 67 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: hands of anarchists. The anarchist movement led directly to the 68 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: Bolshevik movement here and the Red Scare on the communist sympathizers, 69 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: that was a long standing problem. You might have thought 70 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: that McCarthy went too far, and perhaps he did, but 71 00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: Communist sympathizers were a very, very, very long problem in 72 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: American history for much of the twentieth century. Go back 73 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: and read about Algerhiss and episodes like that. Instance like 74 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: that if you don't think the Communism was a massive, 75 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: massive problem. Bernie Sanders, for what it's worth, Bernie Sanders, 76 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: who is now the US Senator from Vermont, back before 77 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: he was Senator from Vermont, back when he was the 78 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: mayor of Burlington, Vermont, was known to be a Communis 79 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: sympathizer At least at one time there forty fifty years ago, 80 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: he was infamous for having the hammer and sickle Soviet 81 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: flag there in his office there in Vermont. At one 82 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: time he actually flew to the Soviet Union with his wife. 83 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: This is nineteen eighty eight. He flew to try to 84 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: establish a new sister city in the town of Yaroslov, 85 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 1: a town in the old Soviet Union. He did this 86 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty eight, around the time that Ron Reagan 87 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: was teaming up with Margaret Thatcher, Pope John Paul the 88 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: Second others to literally destroy the evil empire of Communism. 89 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: So left is a very very long history, a sordid 90 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: history of openly siding with the enemies of America when 91 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: we are at times of war or when we are 92 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: at times of nominal peace. This is very much happening. 93 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: Yet again, we covered briefly on the show this outrageous convoy. 94 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: They're calling it the new Nuestra America convoy. This group 95 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: of pampered, privileged bratt leftists led by subversive anti American 96 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: fifth commonorizations like Code Pink, Code Pink, and orization that 97 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: has confirmed demonstrable ties to Chinese Communist Party sympathizers Chinese 98 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: Communist Party funders. So Code Pink is leading this delegation 99 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: to Cuba that has been happening over the past few days. 100 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: Hassan Piker one of the most exorable human beings in 101 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: the entire American political media ecosystem. He has been a 102 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,559 Speaker 1: huge part of this particular convoy. The daughter of ilan 103 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,679 Speaker 1: Omar has gotten in on it. There has on Piker, 104 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: by the way, who wears thirteen hundred dollars Cardier glasses. 105 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: I mean, this convoy was there as you explaining. Essays 106 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: show they actually were staying at these five star hotels 107 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: that the US State Department designates as prohibited accommodations under 108 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: long standing State Departments Cuba Embargo policy. So they were 109 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: violating law. While doing so, they were consuming They were 110 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: consuming power and air conditioning while most of the country 111 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: of Cuba, all ten to eleven million people, are literally 112 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 1: experiencing yet another nationwide blackout at a time, crucially to emphasize, 113 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: a time where the leaders of Cuba, the cast Or 114 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: regime and their functionaries underneath them have openly confirmed that 115 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: they are in talks with Secretary of State Marco Rubio 116 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: and other people at the state departments when it comes 117 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: to trying to reach some sort of deal to phase 118 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: out or to potentially even end the embargo. So they 119 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: are literally going there to rescue a regime that has 120 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: caused endless American stress stuffring. And by way, when I 121 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: say they're trying to say there, I mean what are 122 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: they doing that. They're taking photos for their Instagram, They're 123 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: streaming on Hassan Piker's stupid live stream. 124 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: They're not doing crap. 125 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: They did this publicity stunt where they filmed themselves painting 126 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: this mural of humanity like it's like Woodstock nineteen sixty 127 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: nine all over again. They did another little stunt there 128 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: where they were passing out merchandise to Cuban regime officials 129 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: literally trying to battle out the communist regime that America 130 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: has had an embargo for now for nearly seven decades. 131 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: And by the way, because again I've actually been to Cuba, 132 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: I've seen this for myself. They are actually two separate 133 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: currencies in Cuba. This is not I well understood concepts. 134 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: There is the local currency for the deeply miserated, impoverished locals, 135 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: and then there is a US dollar denominated so the 136 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: second type of currency is actually changed to the dollar's 137 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: pegs the dollar, unlike the local lower person the Plebeian currency, 138 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: if you will. The other one's actually peggs the dollar. 139 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: And that one is one that the Cuban Communist Party 140 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: officials use taurus and abuse, and that they're the regime 141 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: has this total blatant, unapologetic two tiers has been placed. 142 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: On the one hand, you have normal Cubans. On the 143 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: other hand, you have the Communist Party elite people who 144 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: come in to visit, wealthy people who want to spend 145 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: their money at the rare resorts that you're actually legally 146 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: allowed to go to, things like that. So these people 147 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: have just been yucking it up there out in the 148 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: open for days. And the broader poem that I want 149 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: to make to you is this is that this is 150 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: not an isolated incident. This is part of a broader 151 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: problem of US foreign operations happening out in the open 152 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 1: on our soil. Code Pig is an organization with very 153 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: very very close ties, among other individuals, to an individual 154 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: by the name of Neville Royce Singham. We've mentioned his 155 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 1: name on our show before. He is an extremely wealthy 156 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: tech mogul who was born in the United States but 157 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: actually lives in Shanghai, China. He is a mega fan 158 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: of Shi Jimpang and a mega fan extraordinarily close with 159 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party. If this man sounds like a 160 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: trader to you, that's being because he is. The word 161 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: trader is a perfectly apt description for someone like Neville 162 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 1: Roy Singham, who was just worth boat loads and boatloads 163 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: of money and is probably the number one funder these 164 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: days along with George Soros, along with the Rockefeller Fund 165 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: and the Ford Foundation, various other groups, but Singham is 166 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: up there in terms of who is spreading the most 167 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: cashed around to fund a lot of these radical lefting organizations. 168 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: In fact, according to a new investigation that was just 169 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: up on Monday morning from Fox news dot com, apparently 170 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: Neville Singham has been funding at least two thousand, two 171 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: thousand different organizations. 172 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 2: They just could give you on daz to who this 173 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 2: guy is. 174 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 1: According to Fox News dot Com, he spoke with this 175 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: conference in Shanghai and investors conference this past November where 176 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: he essentially rewrote the history of World War two to 177 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 1: say that the people who really suffer in World War 178 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: two and wasn't the Jews, wasn't the British, the Americans, 179 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: the French. No, it was actually the Communists. It was 180 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: actually the Soviet fighters. And oh yeah, China too, it 181 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: was the biggest victim. Look, I'm not downplaying that. We're 182 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: actually being fair here. Imperial Japan did commit unspeakable atrocities 183 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: against China, especially in the years leading up to World 184 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: War Two. The rape of nanjingg various atrocities like that, 185 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: So I'm not downplaying that.

Another group is called the People's Forum. 191 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: You probably saw after the assassination of the Ayatola Ali 192 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: kammen A on FIB twenty eight, you saw that there 193 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: were these not so organic uprisings in New York City, Chicago, LA, 194 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: and elsewhere led by a group. 195 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 2: Called the People's Forum. 196 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: There's the same organization that was able to successfully instigate 197 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: some of the pro Nicholas Maduro anti American uprisings within 198 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: minutes of operation Absolute Resolve to extract Nicholas Muro from Caracas, 199 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: Venezuela back in January. All of this is done through 200 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: the network of Neville Roy Singham. Take that and take 201 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: the fact that they are funding Code Pink and Code 202 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: Pink is the lead organizer of this ridiculous Neistro America 203 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: convoy stupid Hassan Piker stunt in Cuba. Then you add 204 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: to the fact that there is another new study that 205 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: just came out about a week ago or so from 206 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 1: a wonderful organization out of New Jersey called the Network 207 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: Contagion Research Institute that shows the extent of Iranian funding 208 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: and Iranian influence operations here in American soil, led by, 209 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: among other things, their States Regime TV network Press TV, 210 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: which most recently was seeing playing clips of the Tucker 211 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: Carlson Joe Kent interview. 212 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: Are you a waking up yet? 213 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: So you're starting to get a sense whether it's the 214 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson quote unquote right, whether it's the Hassan Piker left. 215 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,959 Speaker 1: Foreign operations are doing a number here on American soil. 216 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: They are doing a number to make you rot your 217 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: mind and to try to subvert you, to make you 218 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: turn against your country. It is the job of people 219 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: like me who host shows like this to try to 220 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: awaken you to this threat and to say that you 221 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: must not lose your mind in this process. Let them 222 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: lose your mind. You ought to stay sane. I want 223 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: to finish my thoughts on this anti American subversion here 224 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: on the American home front. There's a lot happening when 225 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: it comes to Iran in the Middle East as well. 226 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: But for now, folks, just a quick word from our 227 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: sponsor of today show, which is the International Fellowship of 228 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: Christians and Jews. IFCJ let me paint. 229 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 2: You a picture. 230 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: It's midnight, sirens, Blair.

Getting downstairs feels impossible, 233 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: and after all that, you end up in a bomb 234 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: shelter for hours, even days, because you can't make that 235 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: trek again. This is what's happening across Israel as Operation 236 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: Epic Fury continues. Children are being traumatized, families are exhausted, 237 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: homes have been destroyed.

As I mentioned, it's happening 252 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: all across the political spectrum, and unfortunately those on the 253 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: quote unquote rights who are doing some of these same 254 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: influence operations most recently. Actually, I just saw Carlson yesterday 255 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: talking about how is law and societies are apparently more 256 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: advanced to the Western civilization because. 257 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: Of Shria law. 258 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: Really, really, who is paying you to deliver that message. 259 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:57,119 Speaker 1: Sharia law, the famously forward thinking, progressive oriented, innovative, innovative, 260 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 1: innovation friendly Shria law. I mean, what is this guy smoking? 261 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: But whether it's that, whether it's this Chinese communist marks 262 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: as Leninist propaganda on the left, there there is so 263 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: much foreign influence happening all around us. And I know 264 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: that it's very fashionable these days. It's to say, oh 265 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: my god, i Apak is buying off Americans in DC, 266 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: or oh my god, it's the Israel lobby, or it's 267 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: the Jewish influence, the Jews, that the Jews, that all 268 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: these terrible Christian Zionists. I mean, that's very fashionable these days, 269 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: say all those things there. And there actually are foreign 270 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: operations happening all across our eyes, including this stunt that 271 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: just played out in Cuba. This is absolutely a foreign 272 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party orchestrated op. The ops just aren't necessarily 273 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: what the so called influencers are necessarily. 274 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: Telling you what they are. Now there is a real war. 275 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: Happening in the Middle East, and the war is still 276 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: playing out very much in real time. We are still 277 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: in this five day period where Donald Trump is not 278 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: striking the Iranian energy facilities. The actual war is still 279 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: continuing a pace. Pakistan, for xyz reasons, has decided to 280 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: assert itself as the mediator between Iran, Israel, and the 281 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: United States. There So apparently there could be a Pakistani 282 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: mediated meeting as soon as potentially later this week. We 283 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: will see if that transpires between all three of the parties, 284 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: the US, Israel, and the Long Republic of Iran. I 285 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: don't fully understand exactly why Pakistan should be mediating this meeting. 286 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: If you can't tell, I am highly skeptical of that. Pakistan, 287 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: after all, was, I guess, considered a US ally during 288 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: the Cold War for the very simple reason that the 289 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: United States had an interest in making sure that India 290 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: didn't get toogresive because India was seen as sympathetic to 291 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: the Soviet Union. It was a whole Cold War geopolitical 292 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: chess ward. Unfortunately, whatever whatever chips America put in the 293 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: Pakistani basket did not exactly pay off. We learned that 294 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: the hard way in May twenty eleven, when we found 295 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: out that Pakistan was actually hardbringing sheltering. Oh yeah, that 296 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: guy was so I'm bin laden literally in Pakistan. So 297 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: I have no idea why Pakistan ought to be trying 298 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: to host this conference. Now, the latest is that Donald 299 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: Trump is saying he's essentially telegraphing that he's getting very 300 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: eager to make a deal. And this gets back to 301 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: our long standing emphasis on the difference between ends and means, 302 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: on goals and tactics. The goal here, as Donald Trump 303 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: surely understands, is that the as long Republic of Ron 304 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: cannot and must not be a threat after this is done. 305 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: And on Yesterdays show we explains how the fact that 306 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: over this past weekend, how Iran was launching missiles at 307 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: Diego Garcia, this joint American British military base in the 308 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: middle of the Indian Ocean, how they were trying to 309 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: launch these missiles two and a half thousand miles away. 310 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: That should indicate that Iran's missile program is not exactly 311 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: fully depleted yet. And frankly, it really ought to awaken 312 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: the European powers, because if Iran can shoot a missiles 313 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: two and a half thousand miles, that puts basically the 314 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: entire European contents in play, probably London, Dublin, I mean 315 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: as far west as that is potentially in play as well, 316 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: depending on the Cifiic stuff the missile there. So the 317 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: job is not done yet. Now, one guy who is 318 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: apparently adamant that the job is not done yet, interestingly, 319 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: is Mohammed Bin Salman, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, who, apparently, 320 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: according to the New York Times, has been pushing Donald 321 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 1: Trump to continue prosecuting the war effort against Iran. Bin 322 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: Salman is arguing that the US is rarely military campaign 323 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: presents a quote historic opportunity to remake the Middle East. 324 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: There was other reporting, I believe it was from the 325 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: Washington Post. Memory serves that Bin Salman had privately been 326 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: encouraging Donald Trump to start this war effort in the 327 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: first place. So now with the New York Times saying 328 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: something very similar there, as I said yesterday, show, one 329 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: of my issues with these Arab countries is that they 330 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: so often will privately talk the right talk and very 331 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 1: rarely publicly walk the right walk. We're gonna bring on 332 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: Jason Greenblad, the former Trump forty five White House official 333 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 1: and a real knowledgeable actor when it comes to the 334 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: broader Gulf and the Suni Arab country. There, we're gonna 335 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: bring on Jason tomorrow. 336 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 2: And I want to. 337 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: Get thoughts on this because to me, I don't fully 338 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: understand exactly how the Saudis, Amoradis, et cetera, how they 339 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:20,239 Speaker 1: can justify not actually getting involved yet. Really, I mean, 340 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but you guys are just a total bunch 341 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: of freeloaders. I mean the UAE in particular, which is 342 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,479 Speaker 1: probably the most western friendly of all the Arab countries, 343 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: like literally all of them, The UA is probably number one. 344 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 1: They've been shield The OA has taken more incoming fire 345 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: than any country in the region for the past month, 346 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: literally any they've gotten like twice as many drones missles 347 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 1: combined as Israel has. How is the UA justified not 348 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 1: lifting a finger? I totally don't get that. 349 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 2: Now. 350 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 1: There was a recent phone call between Donald Trump and 351 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,959 Speaker 1: Bibi Nintiaho when it came to this five day pause, 352 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 1: when Trump is saying that we're not gonna strap the 353 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: energy facilities, when it comes to the fact that Pakistan 354 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 1: is now trying to get this three party meeting between 355 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: the US, Israel, and and apparently reports Lahav Harkov over 356 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: at Jewish Inside Or. Lahav is a very good reporter 357 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: has great sourcing. 358 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: On these issues. 359 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: Lahav says that the phone call between Trump and Netiyah, 360 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 1: who was certainly a friendly call, is not a host 361 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: or anything. But according to her in LaHave, is israelly. 362 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: Just to be clear, she says that it was not 363 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: enough to reassure Jerusalem, and therefore Netah who has dispatched 364 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: Ron Dermer to DC to try to prevent what Israel 365 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: fears could be a bad deal. Ron Derhmer was the 366 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: former Israeli ambassador to the US. He was born in 367 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: the United States, is English was his first language. He 368 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: is a very very very smart man who is known 369 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: to be very friendly with the trumpministration. With Donald Trump 370 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: there I believe Trump and his inner cer will think 371 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 1: quite highly of Ron Dermer if I'm not mistaken. 372 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 2: There So, Dermer has. 373 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: Essentially been dispatched to the United States to try to 374 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: to make sure that whatever deal is reached is not 375 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 1: a terrible deal. 376 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: And ultimately, it really. 377 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: Is these specific details that will determine whether or not 378 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: any possible deal with the Iranians is actually worth doing. 379 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: But the upshot remains this, and it's been the problem 380 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: now for forty seven years, is that any deal with 381 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: these guys, even if it is the best deal, the 382 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 1: details are amazing. Let's say that they say they're gonna 383 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: actually take all of their fistle material they're enrich geranium. 384 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: They will dig it out of their mountains where they've 385 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: been burying against hundreds of feet below the earth. 386 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 2: That they will dig it all out. 387 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: They will ship it over to the IAEA or to 388 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,719 Speaker 1: the United States with the various other international inspectors. They 389 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 1: will get rid of all that, they will ferret it 390 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: out of the earth. They will take all of their 391 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: ballistic missiles and they will destroy them there. Even if 392 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: the terms on paper look amazing like ten out of ten, 393 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: how do. 394 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 2: You trust them? 395 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this really has been the issue since day one. Fundamentally, 396 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: how do you trust people that are just some of 397 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: the biggest liars on the face of the earth. Again, 398 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: the devil's always in details. We will see how the 399 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: plan actually shapes up, if there even gets to be 400 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: that stage at this still somewhat early juncture of the world. 401 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: Barack Obama's nuclear deal was catastrophically terrible because, among other things, 402 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 1: it was just on the nukes that had nothing to 403 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: do with the ballistic missile program or the funding of 404 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: all the proxies has Bablahuthy's hamas, et cetera. So there 405 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: are a million things that Barack Obama's deal did not address. 406 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure that Donald Trump and Steve Wikoff and Jared 407 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: Kushner have learned those lessons. In the meantime, the United 408 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: States is not taking its foot totally off the gas pedal. 409 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: Twenty two hundred more US marines are arriving in the 410 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 1: Middle East. There's a lot of rumors as to whether 411 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: or not Donald Trump will consider launching some sort of 412 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,959 Speaker 1: extremely limited ground incursion. A lot of folks are freaking 413 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: out over that, and again, the devil's os in the details. 414 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: I would think that if that happens, it would really 415 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 1: only be to take a very strategic choke point like 416 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 1: a carg Islands near the Straight of horm Us, a 417 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 1: place like that. There there's not going to be folks. 418 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,679 Speaker 1: There's not going to be a march to Tehran from 419 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: the Gulf. That's not gonna happen. There's zero interest in that, 420 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: there's no appetite. It's not gonna happen. There so a 421 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: lot of moving parts where you are tracking it all 422 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: here on the show and we will have much more 423 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: for you after a. 424 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: Short Muscier break, folks, we'll be right back with more 425 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 2: on the other side. Welcome back. 426 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: So early on, just after Operation empic Fury started, we 427 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: had a handful of guests to talk about their early 428 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: analysis there, and one of those guests at the time 429 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: was Mike. 430 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 2: Durant, who was a very smart man. 431 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: Mike Durham is at Hudson Suit just a general smart 432 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 1: thank your own foreign policy and a bit of a 433 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: specialist when it comes to the particular thorny issue of Iram. 434 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: And I remember asking Mike at the time his thoughts 435 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: as to whether or not this possible rupture would happen, 436 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: Whereas at the very beginning of the war of the 437 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: US and Israel were doing the exact same thing, just 438 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: blowing up a lot of Iranian regime infrastructure, top leaders, 439 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 1: molasiotols that are there. And I essentially you said to 440 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: Mike duran will the day come where there is tension 441 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 1: between Trump and Natiyahu? Is going to be a time 442 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: where these respective national interests of the United States and 443 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: Israel diverge. And let's be very clear before moving on here, 444 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: it should be axiomatic it should be self evidence that 445 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: the national interest in the United States and Israel are 446 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: not exactly really the same. This is overstated by some 447 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 1: people in the pro Israel camp, of which I obviously 448 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,479 Speaker 1: am in the camp myself. There there are a lot 449 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: of folks Tucker comes to minds Lena say that Israel 450 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: is a nets harm and know only do they not 451 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: benefit the United States, even though Pete Seth has literally 452 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: explained exactly how they do, how they are a quote 453 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: unquote force multiplier. Anyway, the Tucker's the world say that 454 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: Israel tends to drag America down. That's demonstrably false. Again, 455 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: as the past month I think has pretty clearly shown 456 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: in empirical fashion. But it would be severely overstanding the 457 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: case as well to say that the national interests of 458 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: the United States and Israel are exactly the same. For 459 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: that matter, is it should be self evidence that the 460 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: national interests of no two countries are literally exactly the same. 461 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: It's just not true. And it's even just a very 462 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,479 Speaker 1: clear example here. Because I've been asked to maintimes myself 463 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: as to what would this look like in practice, where 464 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: the national interests might be slightly difference. I'll give you 465 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: an example. Actually, so in the northern Israeli ports, the 466 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: coastal city of Haifa, which is the northernmost populous city, 467 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: not terribly far from the border with Lebanon, Israel was 468 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 1: building a brand new port for all these ships and 469 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: tankers that were coming in. They were building this port 470 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: maybe four or five, six years ago or so, and 471 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: they've taken a lot of bids, a lot of bidders there, 472 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: and at the time they were considering a bid from China, 473 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 1: from a Chinese owned company. And from their perspective of 474 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: a very small colientry, it makes sense. You don't want 475 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,400 Speaker 1: to you know, you don't want to alienate all the superpowers. 476 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: You want to try to have good relations with your 477 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: best friend, the United say, but you still want to 478 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: have decent relations with China. 479 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 2: But from the American. 480 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: Perspective, we hate that as we should. We hate China 481 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: as we should. They're evil, they're horrible, they are an 482 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: awful actor. So the interests are not the exact same there. 483 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: So that's the preface for this whole conversation as to 484 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: whether or not this day is going to come. We're 485 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 1: Trump and Natiya, who will have slightly different end games here. 486 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: As to what ought to happen in Iran, I don't 487 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: think that we are there quite yet, but it is 488 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 1: entirely possible that that that day will come. And my 489 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 1: prediction as to what will happen at that time is 490 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: that nata Yak, who will essentially just just take his wins. 491 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: He is, after all, the junior partner in this biolatter 492 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: relationship of the United States is the big dog. 493 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 2: There is zero question whatsoever about that there. 494 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 1: And if Trump determines that the mission is over, Israel 495 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: could certainly act on its own, but they would not 496 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: do so in a way that went against Donald Trump's 497 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: sentiments or against his orders. There So, at this point 498 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: there's been severe damage done to Iran, and if the 499 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: effort were to end right here, it would definitely be 500 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: a massive win. The region and by ex sense in 501 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: the world is a much much safer place right now, 502 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: certainly by any trace of the imagination, than it was 503 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: one month ago, for sure, say nothing of two years ago, 504 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: prior to the B two bomby run of the nuke 505 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: sites last June. But but mister President's you should finish 506 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: his job on your own stipulated terms and on your 507 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: own stipulated terms. That means making sure that Iran is 508 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: fully neutralized as a threat. Now, unfortunately, there continue to 509 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 1: be all sorts of threats here on the home front 510 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 1: as well. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris let in, as 511 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: you will recall, at least an estimated eight million completely 512 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 1: unvetted illegal aliens, each and every won them a potential hazard, 513 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: a potential terrorist in the making. I'm not saying that 514 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: all of them are, but potential is doing a lot 515 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 1: of work there in that description. All this is happening, 516 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: by the way, in case you for god, at a 517 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 1: time that the United States part and imployment security is 518 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: barely being funded. So the parts that Democrats purport to hate, 519 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: namely ICE, all sorts of the immigration infrastructure, of the 520 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: apparatus that's actually being funded a lot is being funded, 521 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 1: at least from the one Big Beautiful bill back in 522 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, if not from other sources as well. 523 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 1: Now the effect of is is that parts that don't 524 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: impact immigration are currently being shut down. FEMA is being 525 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: partially shut down, and above all TSA is being partially 526 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: shut down. So TSA workers have now gone at least 527 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: one or two paycheck cycles without actually getting a paycheck. 528 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: There have been at least four hundred TSA agents who 529 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: have actually quit their job. ICE is now being deployed 530 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 1: throughout the country. ICE is now at least in a 531 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: handful of major airports Chicago, Cleveland, Atlanta, Houston, New York City, 532 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: New Orleans, Philadelphia, Phoenix, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. 533 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: There aren't a ton of actual physical ICE agentc yet 534 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: the media tends to be over overstating this. They're basically 535 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: going there at some of these limited airports and they're 536 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: basically going to just try to take care of the 537 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: actual safety to make sure the airport is secure. Is 538 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: that the TSA guys can do what the TSA guys do, 539 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: like run the extra machines and things like that. For 540 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: what it's worth, Tom Homan, the Borders are who, in 541 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: my opinion, really should have been the next DH secretary. 542 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,880 Speaker 1: But another here North there. He went on Fox News 543 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: to say that lines at the airports are actually all 544 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: ready shorter and are getting better in real time. 545 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 2: Here was top Homan on Fox News. 546 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 3: The weight lines already dropped hook for doing a security 547 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 3: function at the airports, We're going to arrest criminals Montuos Airport. 548 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,439 Speaker 3: We're gonna look for human trafficking, sex trafficking, money, you know, 549 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 3: money smog one. We're going to be at the airports 550 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 3: working with our brothers and sisters and TSA. There are 551 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 3: brothers and system and DHS. President Trump made a smart move. 552 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 3: We're going to keep the airplanes flying. We're gonna get 553 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 3: the American people to those lines quicker, and we're not 554 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 3: going to give up President Trump's promise to American people 555 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 3: to make this country safer every day, and that's what 556 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 3: we're going to keep doing. 557 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: So again, I will find out tomorrow because I'm flying 558 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 1: a seapack tomorrow. Make sure come find me on seatpap 559 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,400 Speaker 1: out the way if if you will be there on Thursday. 560 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: I am speaking Thursday afternoon at at Seapack and on 561 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: one of the largest servative conferences in the country every year. 562 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 2: Looking forward to that. 563 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: I've done a lot of these seapack panels and past 564 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: years I've never actually done I don't think I've ever 565 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 1: done a standalone speech. So they gave to me this 566 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: year and I plan to make the most of it. 567 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: I hope, I'm hoping and expecting to attract some attention 568 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: for what I intend to say there. Make sure you're 569 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: not gonna want to miss this. We'll unpack it for 570 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: you certainly on the show on Friday. But I will 571 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: be flying tomorrow and we'll see if Tom Holman is right. 572 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,959 Speaker 1: When it comes to these shorter airport A lines, Democrats 573 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: are just seemingly having a ball. They're seemingly having a 574 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: field day as we the people are suffering through these 575 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: TSA shorts. I don't really understand exactly how Democrats think 576 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: that this redounds to their political benefits. 577 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 2: There is just so. 578 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,719 Speaker 1: Much ample political ammunition here, so much opportunity for Republicans 579 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: to try to go on offense with and try to 580 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: beat Democrats across the head with a cudgel. I mean, 581 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 1: run these ads talking about how Democrats are standing with 582 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: the legal aliens, or as a case m B thinking 583 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: back to the state of the Union, they're sitting. They're 584 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,719 Speaker 1: sitting with the legal aliens as opposed to standing with 585 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: we the people. There the ads guys basically write themselves. 586 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,479 Speaker 1: So if you are a script writer, if you are 587 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: an ad creator at the RNC, the NRSC, the NRCC, 588 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: what are you doing I mean, this information is literally 589 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: being tailor made, is being handed to you on a 590 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 1: silver platter. Just go ahead and write this ad in 591 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: the interim when it comes to the utter poop show 592 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: at the airports, which apparently is becoming subther less poopy. 593 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: Per Tom Homan, I saw this this great headline out 594 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: of Atlanta, the Atlanta Journal Constitution being the major newspaper 595 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: there in Atlanta. Atlanta is the home of Delta Airlines famously, 596 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: and Delta is a major, major corporate presidence there in 597 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: the city in the metropolitan area of Atlanta, Georgia. So 598 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: per the AJAC, the local newspaper there, Delta has announced 599 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: that they are suspending their special Congressional Desk service. Members 600 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: of Congress cannot access a special desk. They will not 601 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: be given any extra privileges at least until the shutdown 602 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: is over. That, folks, is how you run a business. 603 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: That is a maga America first way to run a business. 604 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: Personally speaking, I actually already preferred Delta of the major 605 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: American airlines, Delta, United American to me, Delta is the best. 606 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: I think Americans is probably second. United is at least favorite. 607 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: Again just personal preference, but Delta is definitely my favorite. 608 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 2: Ready. If anything, I will try. 609 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: To subtly go out of my way to prioritize Delta 610 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: when they do things like this there. So if you're 611 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: trying to win back normal Americans into your company, this 612 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: is a very, very very good way to do it. 613 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: In the interim, yesterday, Mark Wayemullin was confirmed as the 614 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: new Secretary of Fullman Security. So it looked last week 615 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,719 Speaker 1: that the guy might not make it out of committee 616 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: because Ran Paul, the chairman of the Rollant Committee, just 617 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: hates Mark Waynemullin like a deeply personal grudge. But John 618 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: Fennerman ends up voting for Mullan to get him out 619 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: of committee. On the actual Senate floor, Mullin's confirmed fifty 620 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: four to forty five, ends up getting votes not just 621 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: from from Cener Fennerman, but also from Senator heinrich Out 622 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: in New Mexico as well as ends up being at 623 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: least a somewhat biparisan vote. 624 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 2: Incidentally, we have a. 625 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: New individual who's been named to fill the seat of 626 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: Mark Waynemullen there in the Sooner State in the state 627 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: of Oklahoma, kevin'son announcing that it's going to be. Alan 628 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: Armstrong looks like to he will be the new center 629 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: from Oklahoma. A rather curious pick actually, for at least 630 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: one very interesting reason. I was kind of doing a 631 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: little of an eyebrow raise this one. I will explain 632 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: to you what that is and have much more. And 633 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: that's how a quick much breaks out of this. 634 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 2: Folks. We'll be right back with more on the other side. 635 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: Welcome back. 636 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: So Governor Kevin Said of Oklahoma had a very interesting 637 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: decision to make as to who would be the next Senator. 638 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: With Mark Wayne Mullen now being infirmed as the Secretary 639 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: of Homeland Security, Oklahoma is, by some metrics, the reddest 640 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: state in the United States of America. In terms of 641 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: these states, I give the widest margin of victory on 642 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 1: a four year in four year out basis to the 643 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: Republican presdential candidates you have. Wyoming, West, Virginia, and Oklahoma 644 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: are quite possibly the three most consistently high Republican states. 645 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: But one of my favorite political stats, you know, that's 646 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: a very nerdy thing to say, one of my favorite 647 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: polical stats, but I am kind of a political nerd. 648 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: Oklahoma has sixty plus county sixty to seventy somewhere in 649 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: that range. Every single county in Oklahoma, every single county, 650 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: including the most urban county, So Oklahoma County, Oklahoma is 651 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: where okay See is, so okay See, Tulsa, all of them, 652 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: all of the counties have voted for the Republican president 653 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: of candidate over the Democrats in every election, going back 654 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: to Bush over Carry two thousand and four. You'd have 655 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: to go back to Bush versus Gore in two thousand 656 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: to find the last time that there was a presidential 657 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: election and you had a single county vote for Democrat. 658 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: It's just a mind blen statistic there. So this is 659 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: as red as state as it gets. And Kevin Stitt, 660 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: who have met numerous times, actually Kevin Stid is a 661 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: very very nice man. He was one of the only 662 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: governors to actually endorse Ron the sandas presidential bid in 663 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four cycle, along with Kim Reynolds of Iowa. 664 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: That put him on the wrong side for a little 665 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: while of Donald Trump. Stitt has done some other things 666 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: that some Oklahoma Conservatives tend to take umbrage with. I 667 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: generally like what I see, but I understand that he 668 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: has some other issues his pick at face value to 669 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: replace Mullen seems slightly curious. 670 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 2: So this guy's name is Alan Armstrong. Alan Armstrong is. 671 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: Essentially a wealthy oil man, and wealthy oil man if 672 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: you know anything about about Oklahoma and Oklahoma Republican politics, 673 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: that is a very common theme in the state of Oklahoma. 674 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: So he is the leader of the Williams Company, which 675 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: is a Tulsa, Oklahoma based oil and natural gas company. 676 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: The curious part about this, and the reason that I'm 677 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: raising some eyebrows here, is because he gave a donation. 678 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: He gave a political donation after January sixth, twenty twenty one. 679 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 1: To remember the name of Adam kin Ginger. 680 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 2: Remember him? 681 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Adam Kiner was one of the leading anti 682 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 1: Trump never trumpers from at the time within the Republican Party. 683 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: It was him and Liz Cheney. So Armstrong, this ultra 684 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: wealthy oil guy, goes out of his way to donate 685 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: to this ordinance Adamance never Trumper. And you have this 686 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: Governor Kevin Stadt, who again is generally pretty conservative, but 687 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: has done some things to take off Trump and the magabase. 688 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 1: And I don't really understand exactly then what the rationale 689 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 1: is for this pick. 690 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,240 Speaker 2: I mean, again, maybe I'm missing something. 691 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,919 Speaker 1: The guy, as far as I can tell, has never 692 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: served in politics ever, so he has no experience there. 693 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 1: That's fine, I don't really mind that at all. If anything, 694 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: that could be a good thing. But maybe he It's like, 695 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: maybe he has the most hardcore right wing views magicle. Again, 696 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: this is Oklahoma, Okay, This is not Georgia, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Michigan. 697 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 1: This is oaklah freaking Homa. I mean, you can basically 698 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: nominate Attila the Hunt to that seat and that'll be 699 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: a safe Republican seat in the next time that that 700 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: dude is up for re election. So I'm not fully 701 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: understanding this pick. I think would be a very polite 702 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,439 Speaker 1: way of saying it. Again, we have virtually nothing else 703 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: to judge him on other than this one donation. But 704 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: he went out of his way to give fifty eight 705 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: hundred bucks to never Trump or par excellence Adam Kindger 706 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: after the January sixth, twenty twenty one assault on the Capitol. 707 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: So I am not seeing this, to be honest with you, 708 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 1: But I guess we will learn more in the days 709 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 1: to come. What I am seeing, unfortunately, is another tragedy 710 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: and another tragedy called this Lencoln Riley two point zero 711 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: if you will, and it happened to an eighteen year 712 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: old girl by the name of Sheridan Gorman. Sheridan Gorman 713 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 1: was a student at Loyola University in Chicago, a campus 714 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 1: that I have been to. The used to live in Chicago, 715 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,399 Speaker 1: went to law school there. Sheridan Gorman is actually from 716 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: my home county of Western County, New York. Just a 717 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 1: young eighteen year old girl originally from Yorktown Heights, New York, 718 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 1: who was there in Chicago studying at at Loyola. And 719 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: she was walking the beach, walking when of the beaches 720 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 1: on the north side of Chicago. There are any number 721 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 1: of beaches along the lakefront there on Lake Michigan, a 722 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: lot of pretty beautiful beaches, albeit they're not really operative 723 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: for a lot of the year because it's freezing. But 724 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: she's walking there with some of her friends and she 725 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 1: was killed blind legal alien. It's basically that simple. So 726 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 1: the illegal alien approaches ultimately branches a firearm fires and 727 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: this beautiful young eighteen year old girl, Sheardan Gorman is 728 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: is tragically killed. Now the individual by the name of 729 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,359 Speaker 1: Jose Medina, twenty five years old, was imediately charged by 730 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: Chicago Police apartments with first degree murder and attempted first 731 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: degree murder. He was arrested this past Friday. He made 732 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: an initial court appearance on on Monday. And he appears 733 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 1: to be here illegally. So my own two cents when 734 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 1: it comes to illegal lands here in the country, there 735 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: is that there's no point in doing this whole song 736 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: and dance, this wole this whole process of prosecuting. Just 737 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: deport the dude, deport him. He never should have been here. 738 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is the crazy part. These 739 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 1: people never should have been here. 740 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 2: It's just awful. 741 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: I mean, all the Black Lives Matter activists George Floyd, 742 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: say his name, Michael Floyd or Michael Brown. Excuse me, 743 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: hands up, don't shoot that whole farce that lie from Ferguson, 744 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: Missouri twenty four teen. I say say his name, Okay, 745 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: I'll say their names, but you say Lake and Riley, 746 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 1: you say Sheridan Gorman, you say their names. These are innocent, young, 747 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 1: beautiful Americans who have been gunned down, killed when it 748 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 1: comes to illegal alien crime in this country, and we 749 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 1: the people are not going to stand for indeed, we 750 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 1: are not standing for it. This was the number one issue, 751 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: of course, that led to Donald Trump being elected in 752 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. The Biden border crisis was the number 753 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: one issue that did in Democrats in twenty twenty four. 754 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: It's just horrible stuff, and is horrible stuff that has 755 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: a real human impact. I live here in South Florida. 756 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: Seemingly every week I see some new local headline, whether 757 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: it's Miami Dade County, Brower County, Palm Beach County, somewhere 758 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: in the broader South Florida area, I see a new 759 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,240 Speaker 1: headline seemingly every week about some act of illegal alien crime. 760 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: I vividly remember reading one such story I believe was 761 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: last year in twenty twenty five. There's a Barnes Noble, 762 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: a bookstore. It was in Boca Ratona or somewhere else 763 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 1: in Palm Beach County. Illegal alien just opens fire in 764 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 1: a gun store, old ladies. That killed senseless, absolutely senseless. 765 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: And to the people who are saying that illegal aliens 766 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 1: are not portionally committed to criminal. 767 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 2: Activity, I say this, yes they are. How do I 768 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 2: know that, because. 769 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,800 Speaker 1: That's literally why they're here. Their first act crossing that 770 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: border was a crime. The amount of gas line that 771 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: you have to do in order to try to convey 772 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: the sentiment that illegal alien is not more criminogenic. I 773 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:28,720 Speaker 1: think the criminologists say, is not more inclined to do crimes. 774 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,720 Speaker 1: The amount of mental gymnastics you have to do is nuts. 775 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: These ads write themselves Republicans if only you are paying attention. 776 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 1: The craziest part is this is how terrible city Chicago is. 777 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 1: And it makes me sad because I used to live there. 778 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 1: I've lived in Chicago three years. I actually loved living there. 779 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:54,280 Speaker 1: It was freezing, really cold. It's snowed all the time, 780 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 1: bone chilling snow, and it's very crupt. It's very democrat. 781 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 1: There's a lot not to like. It's just a great city. 782 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 1: If you've ever spent time in Chicago may not these days. 783 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: If you have spent time there ten twenty years ago, 784 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:06,919 Speaker 1: you know I'm talking about. 785 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 2: It's just a It's a classic American city. 786 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 1: And Chicagoans are not New Yorkers from New York I 787 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 1: can say that originally, they're nicer people. It's just a 788 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: great city, but it's run by freaking bumps and it 789 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 1: has now for multiple mayoral administrations. Lori lfefoot into the 790 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 1: current communist Brandon Johnson. So I saw this clip that 791 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,280 Speaker 1: was going viral in my social media feed actually yesterday 792 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: after this horrific murder of Sheridan Gordon. Listen to this 793 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: woman by the name of Maria Hadden. She is the 794 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: older woman for the forty ninth ward, so she basically 795 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: serves in the Chicago City Council, the city municipality lawmaking body, etc. 796 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: This woman is a psychopath. This is what she says 797 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: about Sheridan Gordon, gunned down on Chicago Beach by a 798 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: legal land. She says, quote, the kids were out doing 799 00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: normal things people do in the neighborhood. And it sounds 800 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: like this might have been a wrong place, wrong time situation, 801 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 1: running into a person who had a gun. 802 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 2: A person who had a gun. He's the legal alien, 803 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:08,879 Speaker 2: are we ah? 804 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: They might have unintentionally startled this person at the end, 805 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 1: pair startled him, startled him. What talk about victim blaming, 806 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 1: blaming the people who were killed. No, there was one 807 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 1: person culpable for this, and that is Jose Medina, the 808 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 1: alien who should have been sent packing. Within minutes of 809 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: Comuni's atrocity.
