WEBVTT - Keep Your Politics to Yourself 0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:03.480 Welcome to the program. No victocrats allowed, because we've got 0:00:03.480 --> 0:00:08.440 a country to say, so let's get her teed up to. 0:00:12.800 --> 0:00:12.840 That. 0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:18.680 Sudgo Triple eight ninety seven one, Sage Triple eight ninety 0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:21.160 seven one seven two four three. I am Larry Elder. 0:00:21.800 --> 0:00:24.240 We are Saling News channel. President Trump gives an Iran 0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:26.920 war update and text questions, We're going to have some 0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:30.120 of that for you. In nineteen seventy two, Elvis Presley 0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:34.120 was asked his opinion about Vietnam War protesters. What did 0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:37.440 he say? Bill maher tees off on socialism and the 0:00:37.479 --> 0:00:41.760 promise of New York Mayor Mom Donnie. Democrat Representative James 0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:45.480 Clyburn blamed Republicans for shutting down the government, says Democrats 0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:49.640 want to defund ice. At least he's admitting it. Poles 0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:53.159 show college educated females are far more left wing than 0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:56.840 their male counterparts. Father of three quits his job at 0:00:56.840 --> 0:01:01.120 TSA as a partial shutdown continues. The man says, my 0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:04.959 family comes first. Meanwhile, over three hundred TSA agents have 0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:08.520 quit their job, causing law and lines at airports. President 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.720 Trump's chief of staff has been diagnosed with early stage 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:14.959 breast cancer. All of this and more than number is 0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:18.119 triple eight ninety seven, one seven, two three, and ascent, 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:23.760 of course is welcome. Let's talk first about what the 0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:27.600 President said today giving an update on the war against Iran. 0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:29.040 Number forty three. 0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:35.520 Thank you very much for being here. We have a 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:41.360 wonderful group of very, very smart, talented patriots at this table. 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:47.400 Our powerful military campaign to end the threats posed by 0:01:47.440 --> 0:01:51.360 the Iranian regime continued in full force over the past 0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:58.520 few days. They have been literally obliterated. The air force 0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:03.480 is gone, the navy is gone. Many many ships have 0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.840 been sunk. They're war fighting ships, but I guess they 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:12.959 didn't know how to use them, and anti aircraft is decimated. 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.320 Their radar is gone, and their leaders are gone. Other 0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:20.360 than that, they're doing quite well. They've been a teriff 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:27.000 for forty seven years, and now I guess the world, 0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:31.880 through the United States, with the help of Israel, is 0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:36.200 doing what should have been done many years ago. Should 0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:39.320 have been done many years ago. Since the beginning of 0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:44.320 the conflict, we've struck more than seven thousand targets across Iran, 0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:50.600 and these have been mostly commercial and military targets. We've 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:55.920 achieved a ninety reduction in their ballistic missile launches and 0:02:56.000 --> 0:03:01.240 a ninety reduction in drone attacks. Mistils are trickling in 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:07.160 now at very low levels because they don't have too 0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:12.959 many missiles left. We've also attacked the manufacturing plants where 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:16.240 the places where they manufactured the missiles and the drones, 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:19.440 and that's going on today. We just hit three of 0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:23.959 them today. It's getting very hard for them to manufacture. 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:29.080 More than one hundred Iranian naval vessels have been sunk 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:32.120 or destroyed over the last week and a half. It 0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:35.480 has to be some kind of a record. Additional strikes 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:40.680 continue to launch from all directions every single hour. As 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:45.440 you know, we attacked Cargo Island and knocked it, knocked 0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:49.080 it literally destroyed everything of the island except for the 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:52.960 area where the oil is. I call it the pipes. 0:03:53.080 --> 0:03:56.280 We left the pipes. We didn't want to do that, 0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:58.360 but we will do that. We can do that on 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:03.840 five minutes. No, it'll be over. But for purposes of 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.640 someday rebuilding that country, I guess we did the right thing, 0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:12.920 but it's it may not stay that way. Just one 0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:15.080 simple word and the pipes will be gone to but 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:18.320 it'll take a long time to rebuild that we are 0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:24.000 aggressively dismantling Orens defense industrial base and ability to rebuild 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:27.799 its missiles and drone capability is getting down to close 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:32.560 to zero, and we're hammering their capacity to threaten commercial 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:37.000 shipping in the Strait of Hormos. With more than thirty 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:41.440 mind laying ships destroyed. We hit, to the best of 0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:43.840 our knowledge, all of their mind laying ships. Now they 0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:45.919 can put them on other types of ships, I guess, 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:48.360 and drop them in, But we don't know that any 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.600 have even been dropped in. We're not sure that any 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.240 have been. That's a big negative for them. If they 0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:57.440 do it, it's a form of suicide. But we don't 0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:01.080 know that they have dropped any. But we've we've hit 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:04.320 all thirty of their ships and destroyed them. They're all 0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:07.920 at the bottom of the sea. We strongly encourage other 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:11.560 nations whose economies depend on the Strait far more than ours. 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.160 You know, we get less than one percent of our 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:19.080 oil from the Strait, and some countries get much more. 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:23.279 Japan gets ninety five percent, China gets ninety percent, many 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:27.200 of the Europeans get quite quite a bit. South Korea 0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:30.640 gets thirty five percent. So we want them to come 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:35.159 and help us with the strait. We have it in 0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:37.839 very good shape. The countries, I said, we've already taken 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.240 care of Iran, but now because of the fact that 0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:45.039 literally a single terrorist can put something in the water, 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:47.800 or shoot something, or shoot a missile, a small missile, 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.760 and it's fairly close range because it is a tight area, 0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.560 and which is one of the reasons they've always used 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.800 that as a weapon. Iran has always used that as 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:03.240 an economic weapon, and it's not going to be able 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:07.760 to be used very long. Numerous countries have told me 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:12.760 they're on the way. Some are very enthusiastic about it, 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:15.680 and some are in summer countries that we've helped for many, 0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:23.200 many years. We've protected them from horrible outside sources, and 0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:29.680 they weren't that enthusiastic. And the level of enthusiasm it 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:32.320 matters to me. We have some countries where we have 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:38.640 forty five thousand soldiers, great soldiers, protecting them from harm's way, 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:44.279 and we have done a great job. And where we 0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:47.159 want to know, do you have any mind sweepers, well, 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:51.640 would rather not get involved or I said, for you mean, 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.080 for forty years we're protecting you and you don't want 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:57.840 to get involved in something that is very minor, very 0:06:57.920 --> 0:06:59.760 few shots going to be taken because they don't have 0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:03.320 many shots left. But they said we'd rather than not 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:07.880 get involved. I just want the fake news media and 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:12.800 everybody else to remember that that was said, because when 0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.840 I've been a big critic of all of the protecting 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:20.480 of countries, because I know that we'll protect them and 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:24.360 if ever needed, if we ever needed help, if they 0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:26.480 won't be there for us. I've just done that for 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:29.800 a long period of time, just like I knew about 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.600 the Strait that it would be a weapon, which I 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.280 predicted a long time ago, predicted all of this stuff. 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:38.600 You guys were very generous and that I predicted all 0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:43.240 of it. I predicted Osama bin Laden would knock out 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:45.520 the World Traits, and I made that prediction a year 0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:47.160 before he did it. I said, you better get him. 0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:51.320 He's a bad guy. I watched him be interviewed one 0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.280 time and I said, that's a bad guy. You better 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:56.160 get him. One year before exactly, I wrote it in 0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:59.480 a book you can even check about a year before 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:04.640 the World Trade Center then came down. President Clinton actually 0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:07.920 had a shot at him and he didn't take it. Unfortunately. 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.360 I'm not blaming him for that, but he didn't take it, 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:14.679 and he ended up knocking down the World Trade Center. 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.160 But I predicted that, I predicted a lot of things. 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:22.800 We strongly encourage other nations whose economies depend on the 0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:26.760 Strait for a blood. I mean, you know, these people 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:32.160 literally needed ninety ninety five percent of their energy or 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:35.160 their oil comes out of the Strait, and they should 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:40.760 be in here very happily helping us. And it's incredible 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.440 we have such grade. We're number one in oil by double. 0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:47.640 Now we drill baby drill with double any other nation, 0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:50.880 and it's going to be soon triple any other nation. 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:54.200 And that doesn't include Venezuela, who's been great. By the way, 0:08:55.080 --> 0:09:01.960 the relationship with Venezuela has been fantastic. Millions, literally millions 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:06.240 of barrels of oil are being taken out and it's 0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:10.280 been a great help, and it's been to their great benefit. 0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:14.199 The President has done a really good job. We get 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:18.200 along with them really well. But we've taken out millions 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:22.440 of barrels of oil and brought to Houston and other 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:27.679 places to the refineries. We have refineries set up specifically 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:30.680 for that, and it's been a great it's been a 0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:34.760 great relationship, and more and more is happening. It's a 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:39.880 tremendous oil source and we're getting We're stepping it up 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.559 very rapidly. The big companies are going in and they 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:47.000 will actually numbers in a pretty short period of time. 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:49.480 The numbers that they've never been able to do will 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:53.520 be doing. There's a lot of oil under that land. 0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:58.280 We strongly encourage the other nations to get involved with us, 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:03.120 and get involved quickly and with great enthusiasm. I have 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:05.800 that from a number of them, and I'd like to 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:07.880 say their names, but frankly, I don't know if they 0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:11.600 would want me to or not, because maybe they don't 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:15.719 want to be targeted. But I say it wouldn't matter 0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.520 if you're targeted or not, because this is a paper 0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:20.600 tiger that we're dealing with now, and it wasn't a 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.240 paper tiger two weeks ago. It's a paper tiger now. 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:28.320 More of this later on. Also an update on casualties. 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:33.320 Thirteen US service personnel have been killed, two hundred soldiers 0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:38.959 have been wounded. All of this and more, I'm larioder parents. 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:42.720 The biggest question in education today is how artificial intelligence 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:46.080 is shaping the way your student learns Artificial intelligence is 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:49.320 changing education faster than most schools are willing to admit, 0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:53.280 and many families are rightly concerned. At Patrick Henry College, 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:56.560 the goal isn't to outsource thinking to machines. It's to 0:10:56.600 --> 0:11:00.880 train students to think for themselves. PhD inmphasis a Christian 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:05.400 liberal arts education that develops reasoning, writing, speaking, and discernment 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:10.560 skills no algorithm can replace. Students learn to engage technology wisely, 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:14.880 understanding its capabilities but also its danger and limitations, rather 0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:18.400 than becoming dependent on it. In a world increasingly shaped 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:22.560 by AI, Patrick Henry College prepares students to lead with wisdom, conviction, 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:25.040 and moral clarity. If you want a college that prepares 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:27.600 your child to lead in an AI driven world without 0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:29.880 losing his or her faith and values, I encourage you 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:33.320 to learn more about Patrick Henry College.

We are saleing 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:49.000 NewsChannel now. As the war continues in the Middle East, 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:53.320 right here in our hemisphere, there's another struggle every day 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:56.559 it is the urgent need for clean water across Latin 0:11:56.559 --> 0:12:01.640 America and the Caribbean. Every day, mothers are walking literally 0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:05.960 for biles, children are exposed to preventable diseases, and entire 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.000 communities are held back by the absence of access to 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:14.079 basic clean water. But even in war time, halfway around 0:12:14.080 --> 0:12:18.520 the globe, strategic compassion changes outcomes for the poor in 0:12:18.559 --> 0:12:22.000 our hemisphere every single day. And that's where you come in. 0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:25.640 Through our friends at the Christian non profit Food for 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:30.200 the Poor.

And then there is children as young as 0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:05.560 five years old. And so we aim with that gift. 0:13:05.679 --> 0:13:09.080 Your donation to provide two children access to safe water 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:10.120 for an entire year. 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:13.920 Your gift of just fifty dollars or frankly, any amount 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:18.040 enables children to have safe and living water.

Thank you so much. 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:09.240 War update, thirteen service members have been killed so far. 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:14.560 Two hundred soldiers have been injured across seven countries, and 0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:18.920 ten of them, according to the Scent Calm spokesperson, ten 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:22.840 of them are considered to be seriously wounded. One hundred 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:28.840 and eighty of the two hundred have already returned to duty. Meanwhile, 0:14:28.880 --> 0:14:33.320 Susie Wiles, President Trump's chief of staff, has disclosed she'd 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:39.520 been diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. President Trump posted 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:43.760 on true Social quote during the treatment period, she will 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:46.000 be spending virtually full time at the White House, which 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:49.080 makes me as President, very happy. Her strength and her 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:51.600 commitment to continue to do the job she loves and 0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:54.520 does so well while undergoing treatment tells you everything you 0:14:54.560 --> 0:14:57.640 need to know about her. Susie, as one of my 0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:00.920 closest and most important advisers, is to tough and committed 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:04.280 to serving the American people. Soon she will be even 0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:10.720 better than ever. A missile struck the US embassy and 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:16.080 begged ad on Friday, hitting a helipad. Unclear if anyone 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:23.440 was injured, and before that, the US embassy in Saudi 0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:29.440 Arabia was damaged sparked a fire, but the embassy was 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:34.520 reportedly not severely damaged. Trump has been briefed about the 0:15:34.760 --> 0:15:39.120 new leader of Iran, the son of the former Supreme leader, 0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:45.160 and reportedly, according to our intel, I'm not making this up, 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:53.000 he's gay. When President Trump was informed of this, reportedly 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:58.680 he was stunned because, after all, being gay is considered 0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:07.040 to be a capital offence, where gays have been thrown 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:12.480 from buildings or have been hanged from construction sites as 0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:16.520 a warning to others, and reportedly his father and its 0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:20.000 will did not want his son to take over, apparently 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:25.120 because of his sexual orientation, Assuming this is true. According 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:31.520 to the California Posts, two intail officials confirmed that he 0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:34.680 is gay, and a third person close to the White 0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:42.920 House has also confirmed that he is gay. President Trump 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:49.800 took questions this morning at his meeting about what's now 0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:52.320 called the Trump Kennedy Center. Here's part of the Q 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:55.560 and a number forty five thank him. 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:56.000 As a president. 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:57.960 I'm not seeing it and I'm daily wire, but thank 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:00.880 you the question. Numerous trees have told me they are 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:03.080 on their way. Can you give us a hint what 0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:03.520 they are? 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:04.960 What that entails how. 0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:05.560 Soon they might be there? 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:07.760 I mean, who are the countries? Yes, sir, I'd rather 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.960 not say yet, but we'll be announcing a Mark or 0:17:10.040 --> 0:17:13.520 Rubio and the various people that are doing that will 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.080 be announcing, and we do. I have to tell you, 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:19.840 we have some that are really enthusiastic. They're coming already, 0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.560 They've already started to get there. You know, it takes 0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:24.840 a little while to get there. It's like in some 0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:29.200 cases you have to travel an ocean, so it doesn't 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:31.679 go that fast, but it'll go fast. And we have 0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:34.560 some that are fairly local that are doing it, but 0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:37.520 we'll be an that. We'll give you a list. Some 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:41.919 are very enthusiastic and some are less than enthusiastic, and 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:45.159 I assume some will not do it. I think we 0:17:45.240 --> 0:17:46.639 have one or two that will not do it that 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:50.000 we've been protecting for about forty years at you know, 0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:54.879 tens of billions of dollars, mister speaker. So I'll be 0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:57.159 reporting that to you in the House and the Senate, 0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:00.360 and I'll say, why are we protecting countries that don't 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:03.000 protect us? And I've always felt that was a weakness 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:05.879 of NATO. We were going to protect them, but I 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:09.000 always said, when in need, they won't protect us. Now 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:12.720 this is in need need would be one of the 0:18:12.720 --> 0:18:16.800 big boys. But I will say that we built the 0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:20.600 greatest military in the world, and we protect people. And 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:23.600 if we need their mind boats, or if we need 0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:28.280 anything any piece of apparatus that they may have because 0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:31.959 of a situation that they have, they should be jumping 0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:34.480 to help us because we've helped them for years. Stay 0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:35.440 out of words, yep list. 0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:39.080 President, Can you tell us if you are spoken with 0:18:39.240 --> 0:18:43.120 French President Macron about the coalition to reopen the straight 0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:45.880 off Hormos? Have you been speaking with the French president? 0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:47.360 What does that mean? 0:18:48.119 --> 0:18:51.200 Have you been speaking with the French President Macron about 0:18:51.560 --> 0:18:54.120 the coalition to reopen the straight off Hormus. 0:18:54.200 --> 0:18:59.399 Yeah, I have spoken to him. He's been on the 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:03.240 scale of zero to ten. I'd say he's been an eight. 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:10.600 Not perfect, but it's friends are expect perfect. 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:14.240 Are you confident that friends will help with the reopening 0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:16.560 of straight off homers. 0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:19.440 Yeah, I've been sure he's gonna I think he's gonna help. 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:22.240 I mean, I'll let you know. I spoke to him yesterday. 0:19:23.520 --> 0:19:26.639 I don't do a hard sell on them because my 0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:31.520 attitude is we don't need anybody. We're the strongest nation 0:19:31.640 --> 0:19:34.320 in the world. We have the strongest military by far 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:38.159 in the world. We don't need them. But it's interesting 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:40.560 I'm almost doing it in some cases, not because we 0:19:40.640 --> 0:19:42.320 need them, but because i want to find out how 0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:45.080 they react, because I've been saying for years that if 0:19:45.080 --> 0:19:46.840 we ever did need them, they won't be there. 0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:49.800 Not all more on this we get back good point 0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:52.880 isn't it. Tens of thousands of troops in Germany, tens 0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:57.399 of thousands of troops in Japan, in Korea, and President 0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:00.359 Trump asked for a mind sweeper. Well, you don't want 0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:04.359 to get involved. Triple eight nine seventy one, sage Larryolder. 0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:17.520 Every society is judged by how it treats the most vulnerable. 0:20:17.600 --> 0:20:20.679 I'm Larry Elder. Right now, Families across Latin America and 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:23.119 in the Caribbean are living without something we take for 0:20:23.200 --> 0:20:27.240 granted every day, clean water. Mothers walk miles to find it, 0:20:27.359 --> 0:20:29.520 children to school to carry it, and too often the 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:32.760 water they bring home spreads disease instead of sustaining life. 0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:37.119 That's not just unfortunate, it's unacceptable. Water is foundational. Without it, 0:20:37.200 --> 0:20:41.200 health declines, opportunity disappears, communities cannot thrive. But you can 0:20:41.240 --> 0:20:43.640 help solve this through food for the poor. Your gift 0:20:43.680 --> 0:20:47.919 provides safe and living water, protecting children, strengthening families, and 0:20:48.000 --> 0:20:52.080 advancing lasting hope through local churches. It's practical, it's measurable, 0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:55.000 it's the right thing to do. Your gift of fifty 0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:57.960 dollars insures two people have safe in living water, or 0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:00.520 four one hundred dollars.

We are selling Loose Channel. Did 0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:26.359 you watch the oscars last night? Of course not. I 0:21:26.560 --> 0:21:30.959 glanced and the anti Trump stuff was not nearly as 0:21:30.960 --> 0:21:34.119 bad as I thought it would be, which reminds me 0:21:34.160 --> 0:21:36.560 of something that was said by Elvis Presley back in 0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:39.320 nineteen seventy two when he was asking his opinion about 0:21:40.200 --> 0:21:42.800 Vietnam War protesters. I'm gonna have that for you later 0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:44.399 on the show. But let's get back to the Q 0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:48.760 and a portion of the president's press conference this morning. 0:21:48.880 --> 0:21:51.119 It wasn't scheduled to be a press conference, but you know, 0:21:51.440 --> 0:21:57.159 whenever the president is doing anything, he's always willing and 0:21:57.240 --> 0:21:59.520 able to take questions and did Let's pick it up 0:21:59.520 --> 0:21:59.880 from there. 0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:03.440 We're the strongest nation in the world. We have the 0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:06.400 strongest military by far in the world. We don't need them, 0:22:06.680 --> 0:22:10.479 but it's interesting I'm almost doing it in some cases, 0:22:10.600 --> 0:22:12.320 not because we need them, but because I want to 0:22:12.320 --> 0:22:15.040 find out how they react. Because I've been saying for 0:22:15.160 --> 0:22:17.040 years that if we ever did need them, they won't 0:22:17.040 --> 0:22:19.360 be there, not all of them, but they won't be there. 0:22:19.400 --> 0:22:23.199 I was very surprised with the United Kingdom because the 0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:26.960 United Kingdom two weeks ago, I said, why don't you 0:22:27.040 --> 0:22:29.119 send some ships over? And he really didn't want to 0:22:29.160 --> 0:22:31.879 do it. I said, you don't want to do it. 0:22:31.920 --> 0:22:35.520 We've been with you, you're our oldest ally, and we 0:22:35.600 --> 0:22:38.480 spend a lot of money on you know, NATO and 0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:41.240 all of these things to protect you. I mean we're 0:22:41.240 --> 0:22:44.879 protecting them. We're working with them on Ukraine. Ukraine's thousands 0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:49.359 of miles away, separated by a vast ocean. We don't 0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:51.359 have to do that. But we did it well, Biden 0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:53.800 did it. I mean, I have to be honest, Biden 0:22:54.359 --> 0:22:58.320 got taken to the cleaners. But we worked with them 0:22:58.359 --> 0:23:00.760 in Ukraine. We don't need to work with in Ukraine. 0:23:01.280 --> 0:23:04.440 And then they tell us that we have a mind 0:23:04.440 --> 0:23:07.000 ship around and they don't want to do it. I 0:23:07.080 --> 0:23:10.080 think it's I think it's terrible. Noo. I was very 0:23:10.080 --> 0:23:13.919 surprised I told him, you know, we requested two aircraft carriers, 0:23:13.920 --> 0:23:18.359 which they had, and he didn't really want to do it. 0:23:18.400 --> 0:23:20.720 And then right after the war essentially ended, you know, 0:23:20.800 --> 0:23:26.119 meaning they were obliterated, he said, I would like to 0:23:26.119 --> 0:23:29.439 send the aircraft carriers. I said, I don't need them 0:23:29.480 --> 0:23:32.520 after the war has ended and won I needed before 0:23:32.560 --> 0:23:35.479 the war. So I was very upset with not upset, 0:23:35.520 --> 0:23:39.919 I was. I was not happy with the UK. I 0:23:39.920 --> 0:23:43.080 think they'll be involved. Yeah, maybe, but they should be 0:23:43.119 --> 0:23:46.879 involved enthusiastically. We've been protecting these countries for years with 0:23:47.000 --> 0:23:51.919 NATO because NATO is US. You can ask Putin. Putin 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:55.080 fears US. He doesn't fear her. He has no fear 0:23:55.080 --> 0:23:59.720 of Europe whatsoever. He fears the United States of America 0:24:00.240 --> 0:24:02.399 and the military that was built by me in the 0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:03.000 first term. 0:24:03.160 --> 0:24:07.960 Yeah, President you mentioned the significant amount of oil that 0:24:08.119 --> 0:24:11.400 China derives from the Middle East. What is the status 0:24:11.440 --> 0:24:14.600 of your conversation with President she in terms of getting 0:24:14.680 --> 0:24:18.199 China to cooperate in terms of making the Strait of 0:24:18.440 --> 0:24:20.320 Hormus safe for those oil tankers. 0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:23.600 So China is a great example. They get ninety one 0:24:23.600 --> 0:24:27.680 percent of their oil from the Hormo Straits. Which we 0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:30.959 protected for years, and it always bothered me that we 0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:34.040 have these countries Japan getst ninety five percent of it's 0:24:34.080 --> 0:24:38.719 from the Straits to Homo strates, and it always bothered 0:24:38.760 --> 0:24:41.040 me that we're protecting and we don't need them. We 0:24:41.080 --> 0:24:44.560 didn't need them before we started a dig we must 0:24:44.680 --> 0:24:47.280 I dig mey was as the Trump policy of lots 0:24:47.280 --> 0:24:51.520 of oil, and we didn't use them very much. It 0:24:51.600 --> 0:24:54.840 used to be a ten percent. Now it's at almost zero. 0:24:55.240 --> 0:24:57.879 We don't need you know, we don't need oil. We 0:24:57.920 --> 0:25:00.400
