I ended up spending way 14 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: too much money. I'm not gonna lie. This was that 15 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: maple Wood Mall. 16 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 2: Yeah.

I may, I 19 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: may may do a post show. I'm thinking there's a 20 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: lot to talk about on the show today, much more 21 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: relevant than my mall experience toy purchases over the weekend. 22 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: Although I did see a report this morning, but apparently 23 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: gen Z is hanging out at the mall again, and 24 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 1: I can attest to that. I was it was like 25 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: I walked into the into the wayback machine. It's like 26 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: I went back. It's like Monday and I went back 27 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: in time on Saturday. It was rather, it was rather, 28 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: it was rather interesting. 29 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, if they're not hanging out at the Brunswill Mall, 30 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 3: I can tell you that. 31 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: That was a good time. It was a good time. 32 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: So maybe I'll save it for a post show. We'll 33 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: see how things wrap up towards the end of today's 34 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: show and we get through all of the relevant information 35 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: here on Twin City's News Talk Am eleven thirty one 36 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: O three five FM.

Paid family medical leave, 49 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,119 Speaker 1: not just here in Minnesota, but across the country. Yeah, 50 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,839 Speaker 1: the Marxists have really found a good program of which 51 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 1: to read distribute the wealth.

I have a lot to say 57 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: about this, By the way, this has shocked me in 58 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: the least bit. I am not surprised at the city 59 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: of Minneapolis. We're like in the top five of money 60 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: spent on only fans, and we have a lot of 61 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: onlyfan creators apparently in Minneapolis as well, like thousands of them. 62 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 3: That's now two things for the for the Minneapolis resume, right, 63 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 3: OnlyFans and Nobel Prize. 64 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: Such a such a tourism destination. Come to the place 65 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: where the people were nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, 66 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: and they spend more money on OnlyFans than anywhere else. 67 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: Healthy societies don't don't do this, by the way. That's 68 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: that's mine. That's a bit of your pre due to 69 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: the commentary that I have coming up later on this morning. Right, 70 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: if you're in a healthy, you know, relationship with somebody, marriage, 71 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: things are going fantastic in life. Yeah, you don't need OnlyFans. 72 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: So just no judgment, just my personal opinion. So we'll 73 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: get to this later on on the show today as well. 74 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: I do want to mention that as the tempts climbed 75 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: into the sixties over the weekend, multiple storm systems are 76 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: on deck that could bring accumulating snow to the region 77 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: later this week. Now, before you go blaming me, I 78 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: did not switch out the floor mats in my car. 79 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: Although I was thinking that maybe we can do a 80 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: new yearly tradition, kind of like our own version of 81 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: Groundhog Day, when will John remove the floormats in his car? 82 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: I have not done it yet. I wanted to. Over 83 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: the weekend it was so nice, the snow had gone away. 84 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: We Linda was giving me grief about that. By the way, 85 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: She's like, you're gonna move them, So I thought, I 86 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: like them. I don't, I said, I want the nice 87 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: ones in my nice in my nice car. The first 88 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: disturbance the article from Bringing the News says arrives tomorrow 89 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: into Wednesday. So according to the National Weather Service, snow 90 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: accumulation is possible in a wide area, but the ensemble 91 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: spread is rather large with specific amounts, so Tuesday to 92 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: Wednesday more storms could move through the area. A strong 93 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: jet aloft combined with a parade of weak trough features 94 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: will allow for continued chances of rain snow showers throughout 95 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: most of the week and will warrant a close a monitoring. 96 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: So once again we will be monitoring the situation. I 97 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: do like how this was worded by the way a 98 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,679 Speaker 1: parade of a combined with a parade of weak trough 99 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: features new version of the never ading parade is stupid. 100 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm just. 101 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: Gonna say, like, are they just trying to make themselves 102 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 3: sound smarter? 103 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: I have no idea. That's that was the vibe that 104 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: I got. Yeah, yeah, And I would know something I 105 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: try to do every day on the show next week, 106 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: So the system looks to be more organized, oh, the 107 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: most organized of the disturbances. And with more mild March temperatures, 108 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: more moisture will be available. So there you go. Don't 109 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: blame me just saying my floor mats have not been 110 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 1: removed from my automobile.

Suspected homemade 176 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: bombs packed with nuts, bolts and screws were hurled toward 177 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: a crowd, which is funny because the protesters this could 178 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,479 Speaker 1: also be described as nuts. 179 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 2: See what I did? 180 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 5: There? 181 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: All seriousness that the devices were tossed during these dueling 182 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: protests late Saturday morning near Gracie Mansion, the Mayor's residence 183 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 1: in Manhattan's Upper East Side in New York City. It's 184 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 1: pretty interesting two of the individuals that were arrested tossing 185 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: two of these improvised ied devices. The home that police 186 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: went and conducted a raid in connection with this in 187 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: Bucks County. Pretty lavish. The dudes looked like a couple 188 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 1: of homeless activists, but apparently they were residing in pretty 189 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 1: comfortable confines, police say. The first protester began around eleven 190 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: AM near the mansion. The demonstration was titled stop the 191 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: Islamic Takeover of New York City, Stop in New York 192 00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: City Public Muslim Prayer. It drew about twenty participants and 193 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: was organized by individuals. According to the Daily Wire article 194 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: associated with January sixth, defendant Jake Lang. Of course he 195 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: made a lot of headlines here in Minnesota. You had 196 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: the Minneapolis Police Apartment leaving him to potentially get beaten 197 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: up by a crowd that was pushing back on his 198 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: protest in downtown Minneapolis. Also, he ended up being charged 199 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: and destroying the ice sculpture that went up at the Capitol. 200 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: He's known for this type of protesting. A counter protest 201 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: nearby called the Run of the Nazis out of New 202 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: York City Stand against Hate that drew roughly one hundred 203 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: and twenty five people at its peak. Officers separated the 204 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: two groups into designated protest areas. Tensions then escalated. Before noon, 205 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: Police say a protester associated with Lang's demonstration used pepper 206 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: spray against counter protesters. He was arrested twenty minutes later. 207 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: The situation intensified even further. Police say an eighteen year 208 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: old counter protester identified as a mere Balat lit and 209 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: hurled an ignited device toward the protest area. There's video 210 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: footage of this available up online. Witnesses reported seeing flames 211 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: and smoke trailing the devices through through the through the air, 212 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:22,479 Speaker 1: before striking a barrier and extinguishing just feet from police officers. 213 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: This fool ran from the scene. Investigators say he then 214 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 1: obtained a second device from a nineteen year old man 215 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: identified it as the Abraham nick Bomb. Squad texts responded 216 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: examined the devices. Inspections suggested the objects appeared to be 217 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 1: jars wrapped in black tape, slightly smaller than a football, 218 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: packed with nuts, bolts and screws, and fitted with a 219 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: hobby fuse that could be ignited. So six arrests were 220 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: made in connection total with the events, and those include 221 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: the two men accused of handling and deploying devices. The 222 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: devices the ones I was mentioning a moment ago living 223 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: in the lavish homes. Some on social media were claiming 224 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: that they both yelled out to a la akbar. That 225 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: has not been confirmed by authorities. And I don't know 226 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: if that was if that could be heard in any 227 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: of the footage. I didn't hear with what I saw online. 228 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: Front Lines tp USA reporter Bronson Alford told The Daily 229 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: Wire that the counter protesters from the Drive the Nazis 230 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: out of New York were not your average demonstrators. The 231 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 1: protesters weren't normal protesters, they were Antifa. Their goal was 232 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: to hurt as many conservative journalists as they could. Alfred 233 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: said that things escalated when protesters started screaming bomb, bomb bomb. 234 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: His surroundings began to fill with smokes, saying it smelled 235 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: like something had been ignited. So you had Zohoran mom 236 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: Dannie commenting on this of no surprise, showing what side 237 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: he is on. He calls out laying by names names, 238 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: says that he's a white supremacist, but then doesn't talk 239 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: about the suspect who threw the improvised explosive devices, avoids 240 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: any sort of terrorism label. Now, in an update to this, 241 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: a third device was found. New York City Police locked 242 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: down part of the Upper East Side in Manhattan yesterday. 243 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: That's because the Mayor's residence expanded as officers discovered another 244 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: suspicious device that would be the investigation expanded. Police confronted 245 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: the situation was connected to the investigation into an improvised 246 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: explosive device used during the arrest the previous day. Listen, 247 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: I don't agree with Lang's approach in protesting. That being said, 248 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: I do absolutely support his right to free speech, peaceful assembly, 249 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: and I don't deny that he's absolutely exposing the violent 250 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: radicals on the left. But he should be allowed to 251 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: protest without fear of violent pushback regardless of what his 252 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: commentary is. And it's just a matter of time, you know, 253 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: I'm watching this unfold over the weekend prepping for the show, 254 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: and I'm just thinking to myself that, you know, we're 255 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: not that far off to actions like this having been 256 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: taken here in Minnesota. We're Operation Metro Surge to go 257 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: and continue. We were teetering on that point. You know, 258 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: you have the goofiness, the silliness of tossing, you know, 259 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: rubber male appendages at ice officers. But the anger was real. 260 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:42,359 Speaker 1: The violence against immigrations and customs enforcement was was real. Thankfully, 261 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: nobody took to the links that these individuals did in 262 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: this protest. But with all the encouraging going on of 263 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: Democrats of individuals to continue to go and get active 264 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: on the streets, I'm you know, it's sad to say, 265 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: I just believe it's a matter of time. Thankfully, these 266 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: dunderheads did not end up injuring anybody. We'll see how 267 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: long they actually stay behind bars, especially in New York 268 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: City given who is currently running that place. Later on 269 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: in the show, we'll talk about a guy who maybe 270 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: is the head of the Curve. Ron Hubbard builds bunkers 271 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: designed to help people survive everything from drone attacks to 272 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: nuclear armageddon. He's been inundated with calls since the launch 273 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: on Iran, and when you couple this with the protesting 274 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: getting ramped up the way that it is, Yeah, perhaps 275 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: this guy's onto something. So details on this coming up. 276 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 2: We'll talk with. 277 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: Andrew Langer, president of the Institute for Liberty next and 278 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: how the media is having difficulty covering Operation Epic Fury 279 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: and its success. We'll also get into Jesse Jackson Junior 280 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: rebuking Obama, Clinton and Biden for not truly knowing his 281 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: father during their memorial service.

He maintained a tense relationship with 308 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 8: the political order, not because the presidents were white or black, 309 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 8: but the demands of our message, the demands of speaking 310 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 8: for the least of these, those who were disinherited, the damned, 311 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 8: the dispossessed, the disrespected, demanded not Democratic or Republican solutions, 312 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 8: but demanded a consistent, prophetic voice that at no point 313 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 8: in time ever sold us out as a people. And 314 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 8: it speaks volumes about who the Reverend Jesse Jackson was. 315 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 8: Our message has already been delivered today.

So President Donald Trump, in the wake 355 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: of the Reverend Jesse Jackson's passing, had this to say. 356 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: And it's an interesting juxtaposition between the criticism of Jesse 357 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: Jackson Junior over those former three Democrat presidents, you know, 358 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: taking the opportunity to you know, double down on the 359 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: politics of the day rather than simply you know, honoring 360 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: the Reverend Jesse Jackson Junior, and yet you had President 361 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 1: Donald Trump say this. 362 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 9: I want to begin by expressing our sadness at the 363 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 9: passing of a person who was I knew very well. 364 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 9: Jesse is a piece of work, I want to tell 365 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 9: you here, was a piece of work. 366 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: But he was a good man. 367 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: He was a real he was a real hero. 368 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 9: And I just want to pay my highest respects to 369 00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 9: Reverend Jesse Jackson. He's a good man's As you got 370 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 9: to know him, you got better and better all the time. 371 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 9: A lot of them, a lot of people you get 372 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 9: to know him to get worse and worse. 373 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 2: Jesse got better and better. 374 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 9: But I knew him well long before becoming president, and 375 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 9: he really was special with lots of personality, grit and 376 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 9: street smarts. You would say Jesse had serious streets smarts right, 377 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 9: a very important ingredient to life. 378 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 2: I will tell you he. 379 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 9: Was gregarious and someone who truly loved people, had a 380 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 9: force of nature. 381 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 2: He was somebody that we're going. 382 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 9: To greatly miss and on behalf of everyone here today. 383 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 9: I know you joined me in sending our condolences to 384 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 9: the entire family. Had a great family. 385 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: Andrew Langer, like, how hard is it? I mean, that's 386 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: I mean, that was completely appropriate, accurate. You know, in 387 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: terms of the commentary. The man has passed away had 388 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: a huge impact, you know, on America, is an icon 389 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: of the civil rights movement, and certainly in our divisive times, 390 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: people would have expected Trump to take more of a 391 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: negative tone. And yet you can compare that to how 392 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 1: those leaders on you know, essentially the side more on 393 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: the side of a reverend Jesse Jackson reacted And Trump 394 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 1: will never get credit for that, but mind you, but 395 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: but that's how you that's how you do it. 396 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 5: Right at the end of the day, no one is saying, 397 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 5: oh my god, Trump didn't completely trash this guy and 398 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 5: dance on his grave, which is which one would have 399 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 5: expected from from from the president. And yes, I know 400 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 5: it's very sad to say that we have to say 401 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 5: that about our president. 402 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 2: It's funny. 403 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 5: Watched the Ryan Gosling Saturday Night Live yesterday and one 404 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 5: bet and I would tell you something. The opening monologue 405 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 5: with Harry Styles in the audience was very funny, oh historical, hysterical, 406 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 5: I I am. I noted on a number of occasions 407 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 5: with some of the sketches, you know, especially with Sarah Sherman. 408 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 5: Her speech pattern is very similar to Donald Trump's speech pattern. 409 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 5: And you know all, now, I defy you all if 410 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 5: you ever watched that and out live now to listen 411 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 5: to Donald tr Trump and say, you know something, He's 412 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 5: got some of the speech characteristics that the pattern of 413 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 5: speaking of some of these scattered Saturday and Live sketch figures. 414 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 2: And I'm not even talking about the guy who does. 415 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 5: The Trump impression, whose name escapes me, but you watch 416 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 5: some of the other ones. 417 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: It's really interesting. 418 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: So since the onset, so before before Operation Epic Theory 419 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: was launched, as we turned our attention over to the 420 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: ongoing efforts to remove the Iranian regime, I noted on 421 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: the show that there was very little news media commentary 422 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: regarding the massive build up of our military forces in 423 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: the region. It was. It was very odd, and I 424 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: think a lot of that had to do with the 425 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 1: fact that the administration wasn't drawing a ton of attention 426 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: to it. It was being talked about, don't misunderstand, but 427 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: there certainly wasn't. There wasn't a lot of coverage prior 428 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: to the start of the of the operation, and since 429 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: then it's been really interesting. Andrew yes, to watch the 430 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: response the angle the Democrats have been taking, the fact 431 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: that a lot of the criticism, not all of it, 432 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: and we're going to get into this, has been somewhat muted, 433 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: and I think it's a direct byproduct of what so 434 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: many prominent Democrats had said in the past what needed 435 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: to be done with Iran. And so there still seems 436 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: to be a level of concern of being a hypocrite 437 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: wherein it's tough to find these days, but there are 438 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: still those that are trying to go and paint what 439 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: has been a successful operation so far in a negative light. 440 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 1: But the arguments don't seem to be landing as harshly 441 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: as at least I would have expected. 442 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 2: All Right, John, it's like the old zen cone, right. 443 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 5: If a successful military operation happens and no one's there 444 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 5: to report it, is it really a success? 445 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, at the end of the day, 446 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 2: it's funny. 447 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 5: Because I log some time yesterday wanting to get a 448 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 5: census to what's going on on the ground, and so 449 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 5: I was, you know, pulling up news clips. 450 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:05,919 Speaker 2: Maybe that's not the best way to go about it, 451 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: and look at. 452 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 5: This, but there was a package put together by CNN 453 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 5: I'm like, okay, you know, so let me see what 454 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 5: CNN has to say, because you know, you're you're, you're, 455 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 5: you're every once in a while, you and I have friends, 456 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 5: we have friends who, shall we say, may not be 457 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 5: very happy with what the administration is doing, and so 458 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 5: they are parroting every every negative story, any negative story 459 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 5: that they can find about it. 460 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 2: I'm again, let me go, let me go see what's 461 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 2: going on. 462 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 5: And I pull up this CNN package and it is 463 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 5: and you knew it's You knew it's bad, John, because 464 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 5: they had the somber music, but it's somber music overlain 465 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 5: by you know, videos and shots of you know, a 466 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,439 Speaker 5: couple of warehouses and some radar towers on you know, 467 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 5: a couple of the United States bases in the Middle 468 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 5: East being hit. And I'm like, okay, so things are 469 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 5: really not going as badly as as everybody's saying, because 470 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 5: if it were, CNN and MSNBC would be showing relentless 471 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 5: videos of of bodies and of carnage and of of this. 472 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 5: So it's got to be going much better than than 473 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 5: than what folks are saying is happening. The reality is 474 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 5: we have, uh, we have air supremacy right now, I 475 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 5: don't know if that can change, which means that we 476 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 5: have severely impacted Iran's command and control structure, even if 477 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 5: they have elected a new Supreme leader. And that's that 478 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 5: is huge because it it allows the opportunity for sort 479 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 5: of the next phases to happen, depending on what we 480 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 5: want to get done. 481 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: Well, and as I mentioned, you know last week, there 482 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: still is on the on the right. 483 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 5: Well. 484 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: While there was some frustration right from from from some voices, 485 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: some some prominent conservative voices, for the most part, there's 486 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: been a lot of support behind these operations. As I 487 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: mentioned though, you know, there's a timeline attached to that. 488 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: If this ends up being a protracted mission war taking place, 489 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: then I imagine, and especially if we see more of 490 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: an economic impact than sort of the smattering of commentary 491 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: around the gas prices, people will quickly begin to get 492 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: frustrated with this. But so far it doesn't seem to 493 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: be the case that this is going to be a 494 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: lengthy operation. I am curious to see what shakes out 495 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: now that the Iatola Kamane's sun has been placed as 496 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: Supreme leader. And as I talked about when the show open, 497 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: he's currently on bombing watch because it seems like every 498 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: time they pick somebody new, they end up getting bombed. 499 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: So I'm curious to see what takes place with that 500 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: moving forward. But as long as this remains, you know, 501 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: a relatively short campaign and there is a success to 502 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: the mission, you know, I think this is a huge 503 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: benefit to Republicans and to Trump, especially heading into the midterms. 504 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 5: Well, I think I think it all depends on what 505 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 5: the Democrats and Democrat governors allow to happen in terms 506 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 5: of prices, you know, coming down, you know, what we're 507 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 5: able to do in terms of patrolling to the president 508 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 5: mates and remarks about the strategic patrollum reserve over the 509 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 5: weekend and making sure that gets filled back up. 510 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 2: You know. 511 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 5: Here's here's the thing, right The ancillary benefits are how 512 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 5: we have disrupt and have disrupted and continue to disrupt. 513 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 5: What I will say, I will borrow a phrase I 514 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 5: don't particularly like it from from George W. 515 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 2: Bush. 516 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 5: The the axis of evil, you know, the the the 517 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 5: interplay between Russia, Venezuela, Iran, and China. And of course 518 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 5: there are other proxies that are in there as well. 519 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 5: But right now, two of China's major partners, two of 520 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,959 Speaker 5: Russia's major partners have been taken off the board, at 521 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 5: least for the time being. This has huge impacts, right 522 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 5: What what happens if what happens if Russia is no 523 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 5: longer able to get drones from Iran? What happens if 524 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 5: China is not only their energy economy, but they're manufacturing economy, 525 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 5: right because remember it's not just that that oil fuels, 526 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 5: you know energy, but you know oil is what China 527 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 5: uses to make plastics and to make other kinds of products. 528 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 5: So you know what happens if China is no longer 529 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 5: able to do those things and make the plastics that 530 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 5: you know Iran and Russia conturn into drones. So you know, 531 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 5: all of those things go hand in hand. Now, obviously, 532 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 5: you know folks are watching what happens in Cuba. 533 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 2: Next, I will say this much. 534 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 5: Right, we know that China, which was engaging in very 535 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 5: aggressive operations over Taiwan, has pulled back those operations. 536 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 2: So there's a success right there. 537 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 5: We know that Russia is sort of reeling from this 538 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 5: all as well. So if we can keep prices at 539 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 5: least stable, right, well, at the same time, Russia is 540 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 5: forced to come to the negotiating table and find some 541 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 5: peace this spring in Ukraine. 542 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I can have an impact. Let's not 543 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 2: overstate it. 544 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 5: Right, The odds are against Republicans going into November. 545 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 2: But whether or not all of these things can turn. 546 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 5: What would be a what could be a blue wave 547 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 5: into a blue trickle similar to what happened in twenty 548 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 5: twenty two on the opposite side with Republicans, then all 549 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 5: is right with the world. 550 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I'm just going to add back into the 551 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: mix what I keep saying as well, and that is, 552 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: you know, the Same America Act. That's the one two punch. 553 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: If Republicans do not get that across the finish line, yeah, 554 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: that that to me is going to be okay. Yeah, 555 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 1: the midterms are going to be are going to be bad. 556 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 5: It's the same Act, and it's the redistricting you know. 557 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 5: I mean, obviously your listeners are mostly in you know, 558 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 5: the Minnesota area, that the upper Midwest, but you know, 559 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 5: Virginia started early voting on Friday for its you know, 560 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 5: illegal and unconstitutional redistricting efforts, with with folks finally asking 561 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 5: the question, wait a minute, if this is good for elections, 562 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 5: as the Democrats are saying, then why is it only temporary? 563 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 5: And if it's not going to be just temporary, why 564 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 5: are they claiming that it's going to be temporary. This 565 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 5: is the kind of chicanery that is happening all around 566 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 5: the country. 567 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: Well, last thing, Andrew Langer, before I let you go, 568 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: you mentioned it a moment ago, and that is you know, 569 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: Trump teasing taking Cuba. You know, he said as much 570 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: again over Yeah, he said as much again over the weekend. 571 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: And this is also a situation where you've had even 572 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: the most ardent you know, anti trumpers like Bill Crystal, 573 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: they've been in support of, you know, the US taking 574 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: over Cuba. This is not this would not be the 575 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: first time that we did it. Your thoughts on this, 576 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: do you think the president will will make this will 577 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: make this move? And a lot of individuals are saying that, 578 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: you know, what was taking place in Venezuela, the operations 579 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: there are directly tied to and the precursor to what's 580 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: happening now with Operation Epic. 581 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 2: Heiri. 582 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 5: Well, listen, I think at the end of the day, 583 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,719 Speaker 5: if Cuba can be taken without much shed of blood 584 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 5: and held and turned into you know, able. 585 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 2: To rejoin the Community of Nations. That would be a 586 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 2: truly great thing. 587 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 5: I just I'm wondering what my you know, my libertarian friends, 588 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 5: my small l my big l libertarian friends, who are 589 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 5: all aghast about this, And yeah, I get it. We 590 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 5: don't want the president to start all kinds of major wars. 591 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 5: But on the other hand, you know, we've been hoping 592 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 5: that the Cuban people can be free for almost seventy years. 593 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 2: Now. 594 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 5: You know, this guy maybe getting things done, and maybe 595 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 5: that's it John. Maybe he recognizes, you know, Republicans are 596 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 5: going to lose the mid terms, Let's do this now. 597 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 5: But he doesn't particularly care what happens in twenty two 598 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 5: And I don't think he really does care what happens 599 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty eight. I think he's going to let 600 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 5: Vance and Rubio duke it out. And I don't think 601 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 5: that's a you know, I don't think they're going to 602 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 5: duke it out too it out, but they may. They 603 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 5: may they may have to figure out who's going to run. 604 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 5: And you know that's so he's he's looking at, let's 605 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 5: get this stuff down now while I can get it done. 606 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: Well, it's that situation of and and Listen, I don't 607 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: want new wars either. I'd rather see is not involved 608 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: in in these conflicts. But at the same time, I 609 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 1: also respect the fact that we cannot maintain the status 610 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: quo forever. And you know, as you mentioned with it 611 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: with Iran, they've been chouting death to America for far 612 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 1: too long. That's just, you know, the lowest argument I 613 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: can present him on a bunch of a short time. 614 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 5: Hold On, hold on, let's think about this, right, because 615 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 5: we focused on these things piecemeal for so long. And 616 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 5: maybe that's the difference between the doctrines here, is that 617 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 5: in one fell swoop, we can have you know, change, 618 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 5: I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say regime change. We're gonna 619 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 5: we can have regime change in Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, possibly Russia. 620 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 5: But we can end the rush of Ukraine conflict, and 621 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,280 Speaker 5: we can make China take a massive step back. Maybe 622 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 5: it all has to be done at once in order 623 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 5: to actually accomplish something. 624 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: He pulled the you pulled the band aid right off 625 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 1: and expose the wound right something like that.
