1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: Are you mad about mask mandates, vaccine mandates. I have 2 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 1: some practical advice for you. Don't quit your job just yet. 3 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: Plus how the game is played, how we should play it. 4 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: All that's coming up, And I'm right, we're gonna get 5 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: to Kelly Ann Conway and the purge from the government. 6 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna get to heavy D. We're gonna get to 7 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris out in California and someone throwing eggs at 8 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: Larry Elder and yes, all the Biden stuff. But I 9 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,839 Speaker 1: thought it was appropriate and light of this Biden announcement 10 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: today about the new things they're gonna do to attack coronavirus, 11 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,639 Speaker 1: I thought it was appropriate to give you some practical advice. 12 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: Why do I think it's appropriate to do that? Because 13 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: I made the mistake of picking up my phone and 14 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: checking my email right before the show started, and my 15 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: email in box is full of people scared to death 16 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: and mad. Jesse, what am I gonna do? Jesse? My 17 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: employer's mandating this, My employer's mandating that. Our school is 18 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: making little Billy do this, Our school is making little 19 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: Sally do that. Jesse? What do I do? What do 20 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: I do? What do I do? Calm down. That's step one. 21 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: Calm down. This is the beginning of this battle, not 22 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: the end. You haven't lost anything. Allow me to give 23 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: you some practical advice right now. Let's say your boss 24 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: calls you in this afternoon and says, Bill, we are 25 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: passing down a vaccine mandate for this company. No no, no, no, 26 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: no negative tests, no natural antibodies, no nothing. You get 27 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: the vaccine or you're fired. You hear me, Bill, You 28 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: are almost undoubtedly, even if you're vaccinated, almost undoubtedly going 29 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: to want to say, okay, well I quit and go 30 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: screw yourself. You don't want to say something along those lines. 31 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 1: That's a family friendly show, so I made sure I 32 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: left it like that it'd be something along those lines. 33 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: And then you'll storm over to your desk and grab 34 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: that picture of your wife you keep behind the desk 35 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: and the pen you brought to work because you're not 36 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: gonna leave out with them, and you're gonna take off 37 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: and it's gonna feel so good, and you're gonna get 38 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,839 Speaker 1: in your car and be like, oh gosh, I showed them. 39 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: You know what, I think I'll stop buying you grab 40 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: a six pack tonight. Yeah, quit my job, And I 41 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: stood for something, and you're gonna go home that night 42 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have four or five of those beers, 43 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: and the wife is gonna be a little apprehensive about 44 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: the bills, and she's probably gonna bring that up and 45 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: that at some point it is gonna get into your 46 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: head and you're gonna think to yourself, Oh, well, now 47 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: what do I do? There's a better way. There's a 48 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: better way. If that boss has that conversation with you today, 49 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: and I realized that's many of you right now. My 50 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: emails tell me that don't say anything nothing. If he 51 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: has that meeting with you, you simply look him in 52 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: the eye, say okay, nod your head, and you walk 53 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: out the office. Now I'm not telling you don't do anything. 54 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, no, It's time for action. It's 55 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: time for aggressive action. Quietly, you don't sit and scream 56 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: at your boss. You don't give a middle finger, you 57 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: don't email him back some dirty words. You walk out 58 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: that door and you start approaching in person other people 59 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: in the office, and you start organizing. You start getting together. 60 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: You start figuring out how many of you are there? 61 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: Do we have something significant here? You start looking into lawyers, 62 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: You talk to your lawyer before you do anything, before 63 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: you quit or send the nasty email or anything. Now 64 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: is the time for smart, smart, not stupid, not what 65 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: you feel like doing at a time smart. This is 66 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: smart time here, smart time. You be smart. I know 67 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: you're scared and I know you're mad, and you have 68 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: every right to be both of those things. I get it. 69 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you not to be. Don't let that 70 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: fear in anger translate into dumb. Let that fear and 71 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: anger translate into purpose. This also applies to parents, because 72 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: I've just as many emails from parents who are mad 73 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 1: about schools, because so many school districts in this country 74 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: have just lost their minds. Mask requirements, vaccine requirements. I mean, 75 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: there are places in this country. If your child doesn't 76 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: have the vaccine, they're making them get tested everywhere. It's 77 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: just insane. If you're one of these parents, I know 78 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: what you want to do. I know you want to 79 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: email back to Principle and use a bunch of four 80 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: letter words you wouldn't say in front of your kids. 81 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: I know, I know you might want to storm down 82 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: there and give them a piece of your mind, maybe 83 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: knock his penholder over on the way out the door. 84 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: Ah showed him. What did you accomplish? Felt good for 85 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: about five seconds. But what did you accomplish? Nothing? Now, 86 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: a little billy's out of school and you have to 87 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: homeschool or quit your job. Not that would be the 88 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: end of the world. Do you have to stop? Stop, 89 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: get on the phone, start text messaging. You undoubtedly know 90 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 1: other parents in that school. Do you have any idea 91 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: Even if you don't know other parents in that school, 92 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: do you have any idea how many other parents in 93 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: that school think just like you? Smart? Quiet? Organize all 94 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: of you. Organize a big demonstration, peaceful demonstration. Get a lawyer. 95 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: Talk to the lawyer first. Now is smart time. Once again. 96 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this to you for a lot in 97 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: coming days. Now is not the time to let anger 98 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: and fear translate into dumb. Let it translate into smart. 99 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: Smart Now, it's the time for smart. All right? Moving on, 100 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden did something yesterday that has the right absolutely 101 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,839 Speaker 1: up in arms angry. And it shouldn't at all. Oh, 102 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: he landed a shot on us, no question about. It 103 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: shouldn't make you mad if you're on the right. It 104 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,799 Speaker 1: should wake you up to how the game should be played. 105 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: This is how the game is played. Politics is a dirty, 106 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: filthy contact sport. And if you want to live your 107 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: life being nice, I want everything to be nice. Bill 108 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: play chess. This is politics. This is for all the marbles. 109 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: Joe Biden purged a bunch of Trump's military appointees, a 110 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: bunch of them, including Kelly A. Conway and Kelly An Conway. 111 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: I love Kelly and Knway, full disclosure. Kelly and Conway 112 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: came out with a great statement quote Your response is disappointing, 113 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: but understandable given the need to distract from a news 114 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: cycle that has you mired in multiple self inflicted crisis 115 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: and plumbering poll numbers, including a rise in new COVID cases, 116 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: a dismal jobs report, inflation, record amount of drugs coming 117 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: across the southern border, and of course the chaotic and 118 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan that has left hundreds of Americans 119 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: and thousands of Afghan allies stranded under Taliban rule. So 120 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: Kelly Ann Conway still is going to do Kelly Ann 121 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: Conway things and land some nice shots on the way 122 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: out the door. She basically said, I'm not going to 123 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: resign about this. This This is what she said, she's I'm 124 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: not going to resign, but you should so. Obviously, Kelly 125 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:47,559 Speaker 1: and did everything right. But Joe Biden did everything right too, 126 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: And it's time we wake up and realize this is 127 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: how the game must be played. Do I have to 128 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: remind you about Donald Trump's four years? Fine president did 129 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: a ton of great things, but had virtually everything he 130 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: tried kneecapped from where from within his own government? Because 131 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: Democrats get into office and immediately like that, look around 132 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: and fire every single fireable person, oftentimes on day one. 133 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: If I remember right, I may have this wrong. I 134 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: believe Bill Clinton fired every single US attorney day one. 135 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: Day one, You're all fired. Ah, But Jesse, that's mean, tough. 136 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: That's life. The politics of nice must be for yesteryear. 137 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 1: This is the politics of now. Of now. The next 138 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: time a Republican gets elected, he better do likewise, he 139 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: better survey every single thing and fire every single person 140 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: he can possibly fire. Jesse, that's so mean. Yeah, you're 141 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: exactly right. That's the way the game's played now. That's 142 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: the way of games played. Now. We don't have time 143 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: for nice anymore. Joe Biden just laid it out for you. 144 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: Barack Obama did the same stuff. Bill Clinton did the 145 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: same stuff. What do we do? Oh, well, I guess 146 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,479 Speaker 1: he's I mean, I know he was appointed by my predecessor, 147 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: but he seems like a really smart guy. You know. 148 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: I think we'll leave him there. Shouldn't we just leave 149 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: him there? I mean, enough enough, there's a million Alexander 150 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: Vinman's in the government. Fire them all. Moving on. Kamala 151 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: Harris is back out at her old kneeling grounds campaigning 152 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: for Gavin Newsom. And it's just so weird how these 153 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: people talk. This recall campaign is about California, and it's 154 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: about a whole lot more. They're thinking that if they 155 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: can get this done in California, they can go around 156 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: the country and do this. You gotta understand what's happening 157 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: right now, what's happening in Texas, what's happening in Georgia, 158 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: what's happening around our country? With these policies that are 159 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: about attacking women's rights, reproductive rights, devoting rights, workers' rights. 160 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,719 Speaker 1: They think if they can win in California, they can 161 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: do this anywhere where. We will show them you're not 162 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: going to get this done, not here. Never. They are 163 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: putting so many resources and time into trying to take 164 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: out Gavin Newsom. It is because of his vision, it 165 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: is because of the agenda, it is because of who 166 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,839 Speaker 1: he fights for. And so we are here to say 167 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: today we fight for Gavin Newsom. Her voice is just 168 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 1: it's hard to take. It's hard to take Gavin Newsom. 169 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: He is apparently starting to feel the heat. You see, 170 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of candidates on this recall ballot, a bunch, 171 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: but Larry Elder has clearly emerged as the leader as 172 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: far as the one is threatening Newsom. You know how 173 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: you know well, Newsom seems to know. We're like women 174 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: actually literally debating democracy in this country. The big lie, 175 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: the insurrection on January six, all the voter suppression bills 176 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: you're seeing in red states all across this country, and 177 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: the whole idea that a constitutional right, the right to choice, 178 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: the right to reproductive freedom, the rights of women now 179 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: are under assault. What a remarkable moment it is in 180 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: American history. That's Larry Elder, someone that celebrates what just 181 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: happened to women in Texas and is celebrating the prospect 182 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: of overturning Roe v Way and speaking of women, let's 183 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: talk about Larry Elder's points of view. He doesn't believe, well, 184 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: he doesn't believe there's a glass ceiling. Tell that to 185 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, who did shatter the glass ceiling for Vice 186 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: President United States. Isn't it so weird how these people 187 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: think he doesn't think there's a glass ceiling. Well, tell 188 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: that to the the vice president of the United States. 189 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: All right. Also, Larry elders in the news. Larry Elder, 190 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: he was out doing the campaign thing. He's strolling down 191 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: the street. You know that they know how it works. 192 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: They have all their people around him. The cameras are 193 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: all around him, and Larry Elder's strolling down the street, 194 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: and some crazy communist white woman wearing a guerrilla mask 195 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: chucks an egg at him. And because she's a woman, 196 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: of course she missed, but she chucks an egg at him. 197 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: Everybody's up in arms about it. That's racist. It's racists racist. 198 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: How many times do I have to explain this to you? 199 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: Maybe she was doing the guerrilla mask thing because you know, 200 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: she was trying to be racist and hurt Larry Elder's feelings. 201 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: I don't know about that. The communist is not racist. 202 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: The communist doesn't care about race at all. The communist 203 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: doesn't care about women, doesn't care about gay people, or 204 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: climate change or any of the other things the communist 205 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: claims to care about here in America. The communist cares 206 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: only about communism. If Larry Elders switched to Democrat on 207 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: that stroll down the street, that lady would have taken 208 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: off her guerrilla mask, undoubtedly revealing something much worse underneath, 209 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: and run up to Larry Elder and give it him 210 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: a big old hug and put a Larry Elder bumper 211 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: sticker on her car. The communist is committed to his 212 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: religion all the way. Now, we're going to switch gears 213 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: one more time, and we're going to show you someone 214 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: who actually understands what time it is. You see, there 215 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: are different times, different seasons. The Good Book tells us 216 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: that there's a time for this and a time for that, 217 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: time for this, time for that. All times are not 218 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: the same. There is a time for live and let live. 219 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: Keep my hands off. I'm going to back away, and 220 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: then there's a time to dig in, because every single 221 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: freedom you have is under attack. I don't know whether 222 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: the sentence is going to work out or not. But 223 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: I know this heavy day seems to know what time 224 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: it is. And at the end of the day, my 225 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: philosophy is as a governor, my job is to protect 226 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: your individual freedoms. My job is not to protect corporate freedom. 227 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: That is not what I'm here for. I mean, we 228 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: have a good business climate, we have everything, but this 229 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: idea that businesses can just do whatever they want and 230 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: invade your privacy and doing all that. No, I'm not 231 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: signing up for that. I'm signing up for protecting your 232 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: freedom and making sure we have a society in Florida 233 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: where people can make the best decisions for themselves and 234 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: for their families. And that's what we're doing by protecting 235 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: against these mandates and making sure that that's done based 236 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: on what people believe is best for them in their families, 237 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: but not something that's imposed either by government or in 238 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: some respects in some instances, by very very powerful private entity. 239 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: That's how it's done. Not for all times, I would 240 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: have not been as a order of that even twenty 241 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: thirty forty years ago. All times are not the same. 242 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: We live in a time now when corporate America has 243 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: completely aligned itself with the communists against you. If we're 244 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: going to take the one cultural institution we still have 245 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: with any juice left some of the states and say oh, 246 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: we can't use that, then we're all finished. And you 247 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: know what's wild. I brought up the emails at the 248 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: beginning execument of all the people were scared. They're scared 249 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: about little Billy's school, They're scared about their job, scared 250 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: about this mandate and that mandate. What's wild is I 251 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: didn't get one single email saying Jesse, I'm scared that 252 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: my governor isn't libertarian enough. Not one. I got a 253 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: lot saying Jesse, I'm scared about my job. How am 254 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: I going to feed my family? You gotta know what 255 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: time it is. All that may have made you uncomfortable, 256 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: but I'm right. We've got a great show for you 257 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: to night. Do you own a home? Do you? If 258 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: you do, you may be shocked by this.

Aready told you. Calm organized, 276 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: don't be quittin, don't be given your boss the finger, 277 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: don't yell at the principle, get organized, all right? All 278 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: that said about to make you mad again. Here was 279 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,360 Speaker 1: Jen Saki from earlier today. What we've seen work over 280 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: the past couple of months that he's going to build 281 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 1: on our mandates requirements making it so that workers in 282 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: the federal government or others have to get vaccinated. We've 283 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: seen that work. We can't declare with a magic wand 284 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: from the federal government that every person has to be vaccinated. 285 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: School districts can do that. Leaders and states can push 286 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: their school districts to do that. That's important. Companies can 287 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: do that and we'll make those requirements for their employees. 288 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: That's something some larger companies have done, and that's a model. 289 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: So those are all pieces the President we'll talk about today. 290 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: Does it creep you out? That's how they speak. By 291 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: the way, we obviously know what's in all this stuff 292 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: todayvaccine mandates for all the executive branch employees. By the way, 293 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: don't you find that funny? Let's just pause there for 294 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: a brief moment. Don't you remember all the times you've 295 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: heard Joe Biden and Jen Sky talk about vaccine, vaccine, 296 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: get the vacs, get the vacs of vacx is important. Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine. Right. 297 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: The President himself has spread what I've called some of 298 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 1: the most dangerous propaganda ever that this is the pandemic 299 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: of the unvaccinated out there, said that publicly multiple times. 300 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: Even the Australian Premier is saying the same thing now. 301 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: But prior to today, the employees of the White House 302 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: didn't have to be vaccinated. It's funny moving on vaccine 303 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: mandates for all contractors working with the federal government, vaccine 304 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: mandates for every federal employee. You're not allowed regular testing anymore. 305 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: I should clarify you have to get the vaccines. Local 306 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: government's an employee. Yours are encouraged to put the vaccine 307 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: and mask mandates in place, and schools should do more testing. Now, 308 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: I want you to understand something, and I don't like 309 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: being down right. I don't like being down I don't 310 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: like being dire. But I want you to understand what's 311 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: coming straightforward from here. What's coming from here is coronavirus 312 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: is not going away. It's not it's a virus. It's 313 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: not going to be defeated. It's not going to disappear. 314 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: There's not going to be a cure. Coronavirus is never 315 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 1: going away. In fact, we're all gonna get it. You 316 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 1: might have already had it, but setting that aside, coronavirus 317 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:48,959 Speaker 1: is not going away. Joe Biden campaigned on coronavirus going away. Also, 318 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: his presidency is a disaster, so he needs coronavirus, but 319 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 1: doesn't need coronavirus. That makes sense. He needs it as 320 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: the scapegoat. Oh, I'm sorry the economy is terrible at coronavirus. 321 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 1: But at the same time, he can't take accountability for oh. 322 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: I promised to defeat it and I didn't. So he's 323 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: going to continue for the rest of his presidency. Kamala 324 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: Harris will take this over since Joe Biden gets thrown 325 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: out the back door too, for the rest of his presidency. 326 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is going to continue to divide the United 327 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: States of America. This country goes this way for the 328 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: rest of Joe Biden's presidency. If you have him been 329 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: vaccinated at this point in time, you know I haven't. 330 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: I don't care if you have. There's no judgment. I 331 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: told you why I haven't. I'm forty years old, I'm 332 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: not obese, I'm not at risk for coronavirus. I don't 333 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: believe in taking vaccines for something that don't pose a 334 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 1: significant risk for me. That's all. But they no judgment 335 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: if you did. But if you haven't got the vaccine 336 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: by this point, you don't want the vaccine. They're now 337 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 1: going to punish you for that. And there are going 338 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: to be states like Florida that will protect you. And 339 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 1: there are going to be several places in this country 340 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: that don't protect you, and this country is going to 341 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:09,959 Speaker 1: go like this. It's called me all right now. Dipping. 342 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: Dipping is something I did for a long long time, 343 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: and it's really, really, really hard to quit. Jake smntchew 344 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: is the only thing I ever found that works. And 345 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: it only works because well, it's tobacco free, and it's 346 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: nicotine free, and it's sugar free. Those are all the benefits. 347 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: But it works because it's still dip. I still throw 348 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: a dip in my mouth. There's eleven different flavors a 349 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: long cut. There's four different flavors of the CBD pouches. 350 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 1: I actually really prefer those because those are cleaner and 351 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: they take the edge off. But when I crave a 352 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: dip now and I still crave a dip, I throw 353 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: it at Jake s Mintchew. I'm not doing tobacco, I'm 354 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: not doing nicotine anymore. Good at Jake smntchew dot com. 355 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: That's Jake's mintchew dot com used to promo code Jesse 356 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: for ten percent off. We'll be back joining me now. 357 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: Major Glenn Ignazio to talk about well, all things foreign policy. 358 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 1: He may not even know that yet. But we're starting 359 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: with Afghanistan, major Sir Afghanistan. We we can we've already 360 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: rehashed everything we've screwed up, which was pretty much everything. 361 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: But going forward here, where does this country go from? Here? 362 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: Is Panchier Valley basically already toast our resistance forces crushed? 363 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: Is this the land of the Taliban? Now? What's the status? Yeah? 364 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: Actually it's still still chaotic. I mean, so the misinformation 365 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: system is working really well with the Taliban, so they're 366 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: doing that very big on social media so forth. So 367 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: the Panchier Valley there's still a resistance, but you know 368 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: there's others like Pakistan helping the Taliban with some of 369 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 1: the northern operations there. As far as the country itself 370 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: and the politics, you know, it's really interesting is you know, 371 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: you have these four I think it's four that are 372 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: on the top list of terrorists that are wanted and 373 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: they're supposedly heading up the government. So it's going to 374 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: be really interesting what unfolds. But as far as the 375 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: US is concerned, you know, if they're starting to address 376 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: the talibant as the actual government, does that mean that 377 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: the embassy is going to start opening up again. I mean, 378 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: you see China moving into blog room. One of the 379 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: reasons why we pulled out of there is a great 380 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: opportunity for them to move in. So you've seen a 381 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: lot of these foreign entities like you know, China and 382 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: Russian others keeping their embassies open to take advantage of 383 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: US pulling out. So as far as the US engagement, 384 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: it seems to be very remote. You see all the 385 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 1: other countries going in and honestly, I wonder if the 386 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: Taliband is even going to still be able to hold 387 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: the country after a bit of time with their friends 388 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: with the ISIS, it's not really going to be helping them, 389 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: they're actually fighting them. So it's chaos on the ground 390 00:23:54,359 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: from operations militarily and politically major. I'm glad you brought 391 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: up ISIS because that's actually where I was going next 392 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,360 Speaker 1: with this. Everybody remembers ISIS from it was many during 393 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: Barack Obama's presidency. We're not going into all that when 394 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 1: they were just carving up Iraq and Syria, and I'm 395 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: they held a significant portion of territory for some time, 396 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: which I've never seen from a radical Islamic terrorist group. 397 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,239 Speaker 1: And then of course Trump gets elected. We bottened him 398 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 1: to smith the reins and they're gone, only not gone. 399 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 1: My question is how powerful are they still? What kind 400 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: of numbers, what kind of equipment? What are we talking 401 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: about here? Are they just twenty guys in a mud 402 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: hut somewhere? Are they twenty thousand? What are they? I mean? 403 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: You know, Isis really doesn't recognize as far as the 404 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: history and their backing doesn't really recognize orders for saying. 405 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: So the whole idea of going into Afghanistan and taking 406 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: over Afghanistan is a great opportunity for them. I mean, 407 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: one of the reasons why their enemies with Taliban is 408 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: one they've recruited many people from the Taliban because they're 409 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: much more extreme, much more rigid. You know, Taban wants 410 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: to make money on the black market, wants to make 411 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: money with the drugs and stuff, completely opposite of what 412 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 1: Ices wants to do. And then now ICE is coming 413 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: out of Iraq. You know, again, they don't look at 414 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: borders and terrorism and violences. They're they're number one key. 415 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: But we talked about this a little bit with Alkada. Okay, 416 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: Alkina was like a franchise, almost like McDonald's, Right, you 417 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: have these franchises all over the world, you know, with 418 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 1: al Shabab and others in different countries, and really Ices 419 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: is sort of following that model. So they're so much 420 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: more extreme that they literally can ride on the bottle 421 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: of that Al Qaeda you know structured which is like 422 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: these franchises all over the world, but they are so 423 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: extreme purely in violence, purely on jihad movement, and if 424 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: you're on board, great, if you're not, then you're an 425 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: enemy and you're slaughtered. So it's really one of those 426 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 1: things that this is a global threat and where they're 427 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: able to make as much grounded real estate, they will 428 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 1: and right now Afghanistan as a prime point for that. 429 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: All right, majure. Then I have to ask where do 430 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: they get their money because because you're right, I mean, 431 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 1: they're not all about the opium life like the Taliban are, 432 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 1: but they're not at least they weren't without funding. They 433 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: had significant funding from who I mean. That's the interesting 434 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: part is that there's still a lot of very rich 435 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: individuals out there that support the isis movement being very 436 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: strict and very dedicated to that radical you know Islam 437 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: movement or a Muslim movement's It's really one of those 438 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: things that who are these individuals? And there's a huge 439 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: funding network that's been behind al Qaeda. There's behind you 440 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 1: know ISIS. When ISIS was in Iraq, they used a 441 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: lot of factories and others to actually generate money. There 442 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: was a cement factory that they operated out of them. 443 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 1: So they will actually occupy and take as many of 444 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: the businesses and so forth and operated themselves. You know, 445 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: they want to start a caliphant so that whole idea 446 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: of being able to completely sustain themselves is the way 447 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: they operate. I think of it as a military base, 448 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: you know, our military base. If you were to shut 449 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: the gates, you have everything there. You got to fire department, 450 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: police department, you have fuel, you have water, everything. So 451 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: that's the way that they operate. And they really make 452 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 1: their money based on businesses that they that acquire physically 453 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 1: and violently or there's many actors out there that are 454 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: very well off that are more than happy to donate 455 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: this kind of money. Okay, uh Caliphate, can you expand 456 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: on that for people who don't understand and I loop, 457 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: I know people have wanted to forget about this because 458 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: this is not something that these people have forgotten about 459 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: at all. What exactly is the caliphate, well like it 460 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: was in in Iraq and Rocca in other places. Is 461 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: what they want to do is they basically want to 462 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: create their utopia. It's it's their area, it's like their 463 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 1: their mecca, it's their city, their environment. Whereas all of 464 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: the same mind, same uh, you know, dedication, and what 465 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: they try to do is they create their entire state. Again, 466 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: they give it as a military base, a complete self 467 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: sustained city environment and in utopia that they can have 468 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: their people control everything from education to fuel power, electricity 469 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: and provide for their own people in their own organization. 470 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: So you have this incredibly rigid, incredibly dedicated, devout part 471 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: or religious location and it's like their utopia, and it's 472 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: their city, their environment that they can operate on them 473 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: and live. Okay, Okay, So I'm if I'm going off 474 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: of the assumption that the Taliban are going to take 475 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: over all, if not a significant portion, of Afghanistan. I 476 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: mean they already have a significant portion. Let's just assume 477 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: they're going to be the government there. I think that's 478 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: a fairly safe assumption they're going to Clearly they've already 479 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: publicly announced they're going to be working with China, they're 480 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: already or working with Pakistan. That's not exactly news for anybody. 481 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: Those are some pretty heavy hitters to have standing behind you. 482 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 1: What chants do these other terrorist organizations like ices have 483 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: of getting anything accomplished in Afghanistan? And when you're gonna 484 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: have the Taliban there, who have the Jews run you 485 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: out right? You know, good good points. So the Taliban 486 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: and one of the relations that's really good with them 487 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: in Pakistan was, you know, when Pakistan was fighting you know, 488 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: the Indian in Indian country and Cashmir and so forth, 489 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: the Taliban helped out Pakistan. So they've always had a 490 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: close relation with ISSI, which was the intelligence service in 491 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: Pakistan when we were there, and a course now with 492 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: with Pakistan as a nation. So the Taliban has that relationships, 493 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: and of course Pakistan's helping with the fighting and the 494 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: Northern Alliance against those people in the North. So the 495 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: interesting part is, you know the Taliban, you have the 496 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: educated individuals, they are leading the government, they're using pr 497 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: and public relations well, but you also have these thugs 498 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: around the nation that are not very you know that 499 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: practically illiterate, so these are sort of their ponds and 500 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: their soldiers out there. So the Taliban is a very 501 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: you know, it's a very interesting organization because of again 502 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: you have these educated individuals in the capital and these 503 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: non educated thugs out there, so you wonder how fractured 504 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: they are as an organization themselves. Now, the interesting part 505 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: with ISIS is that ISIS is definitely going to be 506 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: able to use Afghanistan as a source of material and 507 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: weapons and so forth. So think of all the weapons 508 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: we left behind, all those explosives, all those twenty thousand 509 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: handgrenads and so forth. So IIS really can either buy 510 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: or procure by taking over different areas in the Taliban 511 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: much of the hardware we left behind, So it's not 512 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 1: just a thread of the Taliban using that, and the 513 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,239 Speaker 1: Taliban is really focused on Afghanistan. The biggest thread is 514 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: isis getting some of that and using that as an 515 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: international terrorist funding for their explosives and so forth. So 516 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: that's the really scary part about ISIS is being able 517 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: to acquire some of that stuff that we left behind. 518 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: They're a terror organization that doesn't recognize orders, so that's 519 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: their mentality, and so if they can take over part 520 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: of Afghanistan to operate, either get materials or to get 521 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 1: weapons and so forth. They're going to and they'll take 522 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: that opportunity anywhere, regardless if it's Africa, Afghanistan or anywhere else. Measure, 523 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: it's just one more thing and then thank you for 524 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: your time tonight. Iran, we don't hear much about them anymore. 525 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: Do they tie you into this at all? In any way, 526 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: they normally have their fingers in some kind of terrorist pie. Yeah, 527 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: there's sort of a quiet actor. And of course there 528 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: is that border with Afghanistan, so you know that area 529 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: has been pretty much closed off where they're supporting any 530 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: any activity through this, So there's no way to get people, 531 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: say across the border into Iran. But one of the 532 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: things that's interesting, it has been reports is that Iran 533 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: has been very interested in a lot of the technology 534 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: and so forth that the Taliban has. Now you take 535 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: a look at things like, for example, the scan Eagle. 536 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: Ski Eagle is a very advanced, very capable drone. We 537 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: know that Iran has drone operations, have done offensive drone 538 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: operations different parts of the world, So imagine being able 539 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: to actually procure and buy those things from the Taliban 540 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: and then use them in our other parts of the world. Again, 541 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: it's a cavid systems, so maybe the Taliban does not 542 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: operate it, but this is prices for Iron to be 543 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: able to get these weapons that are US US military 544 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: grade and employ them anywhere in the world. So being 545 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: a quiet actor, you don't focus on them, but they're 546 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: silent in the background and they're not doing they're not 547 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: doing nothing about that. They're doing something major. It's been 548 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: an honor, Thank you, sir, absolutely same here. Thank you 549 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: for the invitation. And have people go that hat the 550 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: Glenn Egg for all the veterans. They're having trouble with 551 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: gaps of resources for them, so thanks for your time. 552 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: You bet go to that website if you're having trouble. Now, 553 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: it's a great book out. When have you ever heard 554 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: me come on here and tell you about a book? 555 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: Have I ever once done it? There's a new Vince 556 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: Flynn novel, a new Mitch rap novel. Mitch Rap is 557 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: the continuing character in this book. Yeah, Mitch Rapp. For 558 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 1: I believe this is the thirteenth book that's out. He 559 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: just goes around the world murdering terrorists. If that sounds 560 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: like an exciting book. Believe me, it's even better when 561 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: you open them up and their new book, Enemy at 562 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 1: the Gates. I've now read it twice and I just 563 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: got it last week. It is really, really, really good. 564 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: It's available whenever book wherever books are sold, but Simon 565 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: and Schuster always does it right. Go get Vince Flynn's 566 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: new book, Enemy at the Gates. We'll be back joining 567 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: me now. The bright Bart News Washington political editor Matt Boyle. Matt, 568 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: let's go ahead and lead with the leading stuff. I 569 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: understand your big time and you sat down with the 570 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: man himself, something I've never done. How did it go? Well? Look, 571 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: I got to spend a couple of hours with President 572 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: Trump a couple of weeks ago. We talked about everything 573 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 1: under the sun, everything you can think of. It was 574 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: actually the night before that big terrorist attack that we 575 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: saw at Hammer Karzai International Airport there in Cobble. So 576 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: even then, before the terrorist attack, President Trump said that 577 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: it's the most embarrassing moment in the history of the 578 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 1: United States. So he was very critical President Biden on 579 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: this stuff. Obviously, the next morning we then saw the 580 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: horrible suicide bombing that claimed the lives of thirteen young 581 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: American servicemen and women. But we talked about that, we 582 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: talked about his political future, We talked a lot about 583 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 1: his endorsement process. We're working on some bigger stories on that. 584 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: He also kind of laid out why he thinks what 585 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 1: he thinks about the Democrat Party versus the Republican Party, 586 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: which was a kind of an interesting discussion in that 587 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: he thinks the Republicans only exist because the Democrats are 588 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: so bad on policy. So the Democrats are so bad 589 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: on policy, but they stick together in such a way 590 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: that the Republicans don't. And it was kind of an 591 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: interesting critique of the Republican establishment. Some interesting stuff there. 592 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: And then you know, obviously he was very critical of 593 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, his successor, on everything from COVID to China, 594 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: to obviously Afghanistan and so much more. He didn't say 595 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: it outright, but I get the impression that he intends 596 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: to run again in twenty twenty four. There's every reason 597 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: to believe that he's in good spirits. He's he's fired up, 598 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,919 Speaker 1: he's focused. Reminds me a lot of twenty sixteen Trump. 599 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: I interviewed Trump a lot in the lead up to 600 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: the twenty sixteen Electually. I spent a lot of time 601 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 1: with him in twenty fourteen fifteen sixteen, and then did 602 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 1: a few times with him as president. You can tell 603 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 1: he learned a lot from his time in the oval 604 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: office from his time as president. But he's also kind 605 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: of a retro Trump, if you will, right Like he's 606 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: he's kind of going back to that old burned down 607 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,280 Speaker 1: the whole political class, the establishment. He doesn't care about 608 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: either political parties, establishment and so on and so forth, 609 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: as he kind of looks toward the future or the 610 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 1: other thing. That's really interesting. Every candidate in the country 611 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: that's running on the Republican side and every primary everywhere 612 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 1: is trying to get in to spend time with President 613 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 1: Trump because his endorsement moves the needle more than anybody else. 614 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,399 Speaker 1: And I think in the history of I've never seen 615 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: anything like it. I've been doing this for over a decade. 616 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,280 Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like a Trump endorsement in my time. 617 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: And I'm not familiar with anybody ever in the history 618 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 1: or at least in modern history, being able to endorse 619 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: someone and how Trump can move the needle for them. 620 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: It's really incredible. So, you know, kind of tracking that 621 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: as he's going through endorsing candidates and setting the Republican 622 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 1: Party up in his vision, moving forward, moving off the 623 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: failed visions of the past, the people like Paul Ryan 624 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 1: or George Bush and so on and so forth, and 625 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: moving more in this populous direction. Okay, do you get 626 00:36:56,320 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: the feeling math that he's worn out by everybody coming 627 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 1: in and asking for him, you know, to give his 628 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: blessing for lack of a better way to put it, 629 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: or do you get the feeling that he is still 630 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: enjoying it? I'm basically trying to This is a long 631 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 1: way to be trying to ask. Is he still enjoying 632 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: the political game as he has always seemed too or 633 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: does he seem just kind of burn out and done 634 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: with it? No, I don't think he's burnt out at all. 635 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 1: I think he loves it. I think he loves being 636 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 1: the center of attention. He loves that everybody's jockeying for 637 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 1: the endorsement. He gets a kick out of it, right, 638 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 1: Like he thinks it's fun. Now, Look, I mean, you 639 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 1: know the process of going through interviewing these people that 640 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 1: do come in and try running for Senate House governor 641 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 1: or whatever around the country. I mean that that is 642 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 1: a tedious process of vetting them, spending time with them, 643 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 1: getting to know them, so on and so forth, and 644 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 1: it's not a game. But at the same time, I 645 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: think Trump does relish the fact that he is at 646 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: the center of this. We spent a lot of time 647 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,839 Speaker 1: in the interview talking about this. He dialed in while 648 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,280 Speaker 1: we were there. On the phone is political director Brian Jack, 649 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 1: who ran the endorsement process in the Trump White House 650 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 1: when he was the White House political director uh for 651 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: for Trump uh and uh, you know, he got He 652 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: likes the fact that he's able to drive the narrative 653 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,839 Speaker 1: out there with these endorsements. So I think he's having 654 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 1: a lot of fun doing it, and I think you're 655 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: gonna see him engage in a really smart and sophisticated 656 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,720 Speaker 1: way and a lot of these key primaries around the country. 657 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: He's very focused on winning. He wants to wipe out 658 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: those establishment loser Republicans that voted to impeach him in 659 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: the House and the Senate. Uh. And he wants to 660 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: h He wants to get out there in campaign. He 661 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: loves the rallies, he loves giving the speeches, we talked 662 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 1: about his speech in Alabama, which he had done just 663 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: before h this this interview just a few days before, 664 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: and he was all fired up about that, remember the 665 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: everything well turns to you know s line. H You know, 666 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: he was very fired up about that. But Trump, I 667 00:38:55,719 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: think enjoys the the process. He enjoyed always the gamesmanship. 668 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: He likes playing the game. Okay, So Matt, which Republicans 669 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: does he blame? And I understand I understand, Like that's 670 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: tempting to say Kinsinger and Mitt Romney. Everyone knows he 671 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: hates those guys. Everyone hates those freaking guys. Is it is? 672 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: There are still a big Mitch McConnell riff there, I'm assuming. 673 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: So he doesn't exactly held back on that. Yeah, By 674 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: the way, he lit into McConnell during this interview, like 675 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: absolutely vicious on him. He made sure to go have 676 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: one of his staffers while we're there, print out the 677 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: chart where he says he points to be for McConnell. 678 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: He endorsed McConnell in the day after, and he's like 679 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 1: he was trailing in the polls before and then after. 680 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: So we've got the chart. We put it in an 681 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: article so people can go to see the chart. President 682 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: Trump had previously tweeted it before Twitter banned him if 683 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 1: you remember that, but the back when he was in office. 684 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 1: But anyway, yes, there's definitely a riff with him in McConnell, 685 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. And it's not just the impeachment Republicans. 686 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: He says those ones are like dead to him. He's 687 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 1: never going to support them. But he was really disappointed 688 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 1: in the nineteen Senate Republicans who voted for the one 689 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 1: point two trillion dollar quote unquote infrastructure package. It doesn't 690 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: really infrastructure. There's a little bit of infrastructure in there, 691 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,839 Speaker 1: but it's mostly setting up the left's agenda. And then 692 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: this bigger three point five trillion dollar bill that they're 693 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: trying to jam down the pike. And he was kind 694 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: of shocked that a bunch of them did it. You know, 695 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 1: he doesn't like dislike people like a truck Grassley who 696 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,360 Speaker 1: voted for this thing. He's always respected center agressive, but 697 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 1: he didn't see the logic in it, and it doesn't 698 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: really make much sense. And I think that Trump's views 699 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 1: are very much in line with the Republican base out there, 700 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: the vast majority of the country They're like, what the 701 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 1: heck of these Republicans doing. Biden's flailing, He's at thirty 702 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 1: nine percent approval rating, he keeps going down. Why are 703 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 1: they racing to try to cut deals with Biden to 704 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 1: save Biden? So it doesn't really make much sense and 705 00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: it's not like they're going to get any benefit from it. 706 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: So I think that's he's you know, there there is 707 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: a level of distrust with some of the establishment Republicans 708 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: beyond the impeachment ones. Okay, I have to ask then, 709 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:17,320 Speaker 1: because it's it's about the Biden purge. The news today 710 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 1: is Biden purges a bunch of Trump's military appointees, Kelly A. 711 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: Conway and others. And what I came on opening the 712 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 1: show is was saying good for Joe Biden. That's how 713 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 1: politics is done, That's how the game's played. Is the 714 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 1: next Republican be that Donald Trump or others going to 715 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 1: do that? Because we have not traditionally done it, and 716 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was shackled by his own government for four 717 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: years because we didn't do it. Is Trump aware of 718 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:48,399 Speaker 1: the problems inside the House for next time? Yes? So 719 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: this was actually one of the most illuminating questions I 720 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: asked him. Was I asked him. I was like, you know, 721 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 1: what do you know now, mister President that you wish 722 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: you knew when you took over in twenty seventeen that 723 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 1: you didn't know that? And you know, how would you 724 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 1: do things differently if you got back there in twenty 725 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 1: twenty four? And he talked about the staff issues right like, 726 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:09,879 Speaker 1: so he was like, look, I didn't realize it when 727 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 1: I first got there that I was gonna be under assault. 728 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: I was gonna be under siege from the day I 729 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: took over. Uh. The way he said it is, He's like, 730 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 1: I had two missions run the country and survive, and 731 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that all these people around me that 732 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: were claiming to be my friend were going to be 733 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: stabbing me in the back and knifing me. And I 734 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: think that he's learned, he said, he said that, you know. Uh. 735 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 1: He specifically singled out people like hr McMaster, John Bolton, etc. 736 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: As some of the bad ones, and then some of 737 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: the good ones that he singled out like that he 738 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:49,280 Speaker 1: really liked, were like Rick Ronelle, who was his acting 739 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: director in National Intelligence. He's a huge fan of Rick Ronelle. 740 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,839 Speaker 1: So I think he learned a little bit from some 741 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 1: of the staff battles, and I think that, you know, 742 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:04,320 Speaker 1: that was a very illuminating, introspective moment from Trump, almost 743 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: a rare moment of humility, right like. I mean, you 744 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: don't really see that from Trump outwardly in a public 745 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 1: interview or something like that, but it was very illuminating. 746 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: And I think that he's aware of that issue from 747 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 1: the time when he was there. The question is I mean, look, 748 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: you won't ever see it until he gets back. If 749 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 1: he gets back there, maybe he maybe he falls right 750 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 1: back into some of those same staffing issues that you saw, 751 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:29,319 Speaker 1: were some of these establishments swamp monster types, uh take 752 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 1: over again, or maybe he gets control of it and 753 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: he does something different. But um, even despite all of 754 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 1: that stuff, I do think that he accomplished a lot 755 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 1: of historic things as president. Um, you know, the you 756 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: go down the list of everything from the Middle East 757 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:48,879 Speaker 1: peace deals to the tax cuts. I mean, there's there's 758 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: so much more than the President Trump Act that the 759 00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,920 Speaker 1: energy independence I mean, we were energy independent for the 760 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: first time in a generation. So the question is is 761 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 1: will Trump be able to recreate all of that policy 762 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 1: success while at the same time keeping the swamp the 763 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,800 Speaker 1: deep state if you will at Bay And it's something 764 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: that he's aware of, and that was pretty clear from 765 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: the interview. Matt Boyle, thank you so much for my brother. 766 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Yep, anytime, all right, Time to light 767 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: in the mood. Next, remember dangerous toys? Do can'ts even 768 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: have those anymore? And I have two boys and they're 769 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: rambunctious boys, and you know they're always wrestling and jumping 770 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: and playing and whatnot. But as far as toys that 771 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:47,759 Speaker 1: are actually physically incredibly dangerous, I don't think they put 772 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 1: that stuff out anymore. And it's making as soft as 773 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 1: a nation. Remember the pogo stick? Do you remember this 774 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: death machine? And I looked, maybe I'm bitter. I was 775 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 1: so bad at the pogo stick. I could get two 776 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 1: or three bounces and then I was always jamming myself 777 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 1: on the inside of my leg or falling over smashing 778 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 1: my head on the ground. By the way, in all seriousness, 779 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 1: wear a helmet if you do pogo stick. Apparently pogo 780 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 1: stick is making a comeback, and I support it. That's 781 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 1: kind of cool. I mean, I'm not gonna try it. 782 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 1: I'm too old, but that's kind of cool. I'll see 783 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 1: them all,
