1 00:00:11,697 --> 00:00:14,977 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure 2 00:00:14,977 --> 00:00:17,977 Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or 3 00:00:18,017 --> 00:00:22,897 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Donald Trump tells Chicago, we're 4 00:00:22,937 --> 00:00:23,497 Speaker 1: going in. 5 00:00:24,057 --> 00:00:26,577 Speaker 2: Well, we're going in. I didn't say when we're going in. 6 00:00:27,057 --> 00:00:29,417 Speaker 2: When you lose. Look, I have an obligation. This isn't 7 00:00:29,457 --> 00:00:33,937 Speaker 2: a political thing. I have an obligation when we lose. 8 00:00:34,057 --> 00:00:36,217 Speaker 2: When twenty people are killed over the last two and 9 00:00:36,217 --> 00:00:41,177 Speaker 2: a half weeks, and seventy five are shot with bullets. 10 00:00:41,897 --> 00:00:43,497 Speaker 2: So let me tell you a little story about a 11 00:00:43,497 --> 00:00:48,017 Speaker 2: place called DC District of Columbia. Right here where we are. 12 00:00:48,657 --> 00:00:49,937 Speaker 2: It's now a safe zone. 13 00:00:50,617 --> 00:00:54,537 Speaker 1: That's right. He has decided that enough is enough after 14 00:00:54,657 --> 00:00:57,817 Speaker 1: we had fifty people shot over the Labor Day weekend. 15 00:00:58,137 --> 00:01:01,217 Speaker 1: There's a recognition that is growing among the American people 16 00:01:01,817 --> 00:01:04,977 Speaker 1: that you can't allow these democrats to be in charge 17 00:01:05,137 --> 00:01:08,377 Speaker 1: of the crime situation in these democrats cities or nothing 18 00:01:08,377 --> 00:01:11,977 Speaker 1: will ever get better. Trump made it very clear that 19 00:01:12,057 --> 00:01:14,817 Speaker 1: it's just a question of when at this point and how. 20 00:01:14,897 --> 00:01:18,297 Speaker 1: Now Here's what I find really interesting. There is a 21 00:01:18,337 --> 00:01:21,217 Speaker 1: window here. There is an opportunity for Democrats to stop 22 00:01:21,257 --> 00:01:24,937 Speaker 1: being insane, just for a moment just long enough that 23 00:01:25,057 --> 00:01:27,737 Speaker 1: they could say, you know what, on this issue, in 24 00:01:27,777 --> 00:01:31,137 Speaker 1: this moment, we are willing to work with the federal government, 25 00:01:31,297 --> 00:01:33,697 Speaker 1: work with federal resources in order to bring our crime 26 00:01:33,817 --> 00:01:37,177 Speaker 1: rates way down. It's already working in DC, where the 27 00:01:37,217 --> 00:01:42,817 Speaker 1: President has special authority because of DC's unique situation as 28 00:01:42,857 --> 00:01:47,017 Speaker 1: what is essentially a federal territory or federal protectorate under 29 00:01:47,097 --> 00:01:49,857 Speaker 1: the Constitution and of course an Act of Congress as 30 00:01:49,857 --> 00:01:51,657 Speaker 1: well past the Home Rule active. I think it was 31 00:01:51,697 --> 00:01:54,777 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy three, so that's quite clear. But in a 32 00:01:54,777 --> 00:01:58,817 Speaker 1: place like Chicago, the authority would be different. But that 33 00:01:58,857 --> 00:02:01,857 Speaker 1: doesn't mean it can't work. And Trump is saying that 34 00:02:01,977 --> 00:02:04,817 Speaker 1: this is a moment where there's a choice to be made, 35 00:02:04,817 --> 00:02:07,417 Speaker 1: a choice for Democrats, a choice for the American people 36 00:02:07,817 --> 00:02:11,577 Speaker 1: and specifically those who live in Chicago and its environs. 37 00:02:12,177 --> 00:02:13,777 Speaker 1: Do you want to actually get on the right side 38 00:02:13,777 --> 00:02:16,617 Speaker 1: of this issue. Just because Trump is for it doesn't 39 00:02:16,657 --> 00:02:20,697 Speaker 1: mean that you should be against it. Just because this 40 00:02:20,777 --> 00:02:23,057 Speaker 1: is something that Republicans have been saying for a long time, 41 00:02:23,097 --> 00:02:27,537 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that Democrats should just reflexively shoot it down. 42 00:02:27,857 --> 00:02:31,897 Speaker 1: Yet nonetheless, that's what is going on here. That is 43 00:02:31,977 --> 00:02:36,137 Speaker 1: the reality of what we are seeing. And even here 44 00:02:36,257 --> 00:02:40,777 Speaker 1: is Governor Pritzker, who obviously wants to run for a president, 45 00:02:40,817 --> 00:02:43,297 Speaker 1: which is pretty shocking in and of itself. 46 00:02:44,017 --> 00:02:47,217 Speaker 3: I'd like to ask a question of my own, and 47 00:02:47,257 --> 00:02:51,457 Speaker 3: it's when the press should be asking as well. When 48 00:02:51,497 --> 00:02:54,057 Speaker 3: did we become a country where it's okay for the 49 00:02:54,177 --> 00:02:57,977 Speaker 3: US president to insist on national television that a state 50 00:02:58,057 --> 00:03:03,577 Speaker 3: should call him to beg for anything, especially something we 51 00:03:03,697 --> 00:03:08,897 Speaker 3: don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity 52 00:03:08,937 --> 00:03:11,977 Speaker 3: in this nation that we treat this as normal. 53 00:03:13,657 --> 00:03:15,577 Speaker 1: Yeah, there are safe areas of the city. I can 54 00:03:15,577 --> 00:03:18,097 Speaker 1: tell you something. When I was in Baghdad during the 55 00:03:18,137 --> 00:03:21,417 Speaker 1: war in the Green Zone, for the most part, there 56 00:03:21,417 --> 00:03:24,297 Speaker 1: were safe areas of that city too, But there were 57 00:03:24,337 --> 00:03:26,417 Speaker 1: really unsafe parts of it. There were parts of it 58 00:03:26,417 --> 00:03:28,657 Speaker 1: where if you were in the wrong place daylight or 59 00:03:28,697 --> 00:03:31,937 Speaker 1: at night, you could end up getting kidnapped and murdered 60 00:03:32,297 --> 00:03:36,137 Speaker 1: on videotape. So, yeah, it wasn't a safe place. But 61 00:03:36,297 --> 00:03:40,137 Speaker 1: there were people going to work, there were people who 62 00:03:40,177 --> 00:03:43,337 Speaker 1: were walking around going to markets and everything else. But 63 00:03:43,377 --> 00:03:45,977 Speaker 1: there are car bombs going off. Yeah, sure, in Chicago, 64 00:03:46,657 --> 00:03:51,177 Speaker 1: are there areas that are possible or areas that are 65 00:03:52,217 --> 00:03:56,337 Speaker 1: generally safe. Of course, there are safe parts of every city, 66 00:03:56,937 --> 00:03:59,537 Speaker 1: pretty safe parts, I should say, of every city, even 67 00:03:59,577 --> 00:04:02,137 Speaker 1: in Chicago, though, and I don't know Chicago as well 68 00:04:02,177 --> 00:04:03,937 Speaker 1: as I know other cities like New York and DC, 69 00:04:04,097 --> 00:04:07,337 Speaker 1: which I know like the back of my hand. In Chicago, 70 00:04:07,897 --> 00:04:11,537 Speaker 1: the Lincoln Park neighborhood, there are carjackings, there are home 71 00:04:11,577 --> 00:04:14,657 Speaker 1: invasions and people getting shot. That does happen. It doesn't 72 00:04:14,657 --> 00:04:17,857 Speaker 1: happen frequently, but it does happen. I'll give you a 73 00:04:17,857 --> 00:04:21,697 Speaker 1: perfect example. My lovely wife Carrie and I I had 74 00:04:21,777 --> 00:04:23,377 Speaker 1: and I know this is kind of a shock to 75 00:04:23,417 --> 00:04:26,497 Speaker 1: some people. I had never been to the city of 76 00:04:26,577 --> 00:04:30,137 Speaker 1: Chicago three years ago. I had never been once in 77 00:04:30,137 --> 00:04:32,457 Speaker 1: my whole life. And so I decided, you know what, 78 00:04:32,537 --> 00:04:34,737 Speaker 1: this is crazy, as I'm fond of saying. And I've 79 00:04:34,737 --> 00:04:37,657 Speaker 1: been to Baghdad, I've been to Mosul, I've been to 80 00:04:39,737 --> 00:04:42,497 Speaker 1: a Bouja. I've been to a lot of places. I 81 00:04:42,697 --> 00:04:45,497 Speaker 1: probably and i've been to Vietnam. I probably should go 82 00:04:45,497 --> 00:04:48,977 Speaker 1: to Chicago, a great American city. So I decided to go, 83 00:04:49,657 --> 00:04:52,217 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tell you this. We had a great time, 84 00:04:52,537 --> 00:04:55,737 Speaker 1: beautiful weather. We went there, it was seventy and those 85 00:04:55,777 --> 00:04:58,137 Speaker 1: of you know Chicago know this. It was seventy degrees 86 00:04:58,497 --> 00:05:02,977 Speaker 1: the whole weekend. Just crystal clear skies, crispness in the air, 87 00:05:03,617 --> 00:05:08,897 Speaker 1: absolutely gorgeous, absolutely beautiful outside, and everybody's in a great mood, 88 00:05:08,897 --> 00:05:10,737 Speaker 1: and the food was amazing. In the city is beaut 89 00:05:10,857 --> 00:05:12,777 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, this is a great place, and I'm telling 90 00:05:12,777 --> 00:05:15,937 Speaker 1: you the truth. I turned to my wife. At the time, 91 00:05:16,017 --> 00:05:18,057 Speaker 1: she was just my girlfriend. We weren't even engaged yet, 92 00:05:18,057 --> 00:05:20,097 Speaker 1: so that's how long ago this was. I turned to 93 00:05:20,177 --> 00:05:24,297 Speaker 1: Carrie and I said, you know, I don't know. Maybe Chicago, 94 00:05:24,377 --> 00:05:26,257 Speaker 1: I know the numbers and everything else, but maybe it's 95 00:05:26,257 --> 00:05:29,337 Speaker 1: not that bad. We were standing in Millennium Park at 96 00:05:29,337 --> 00:05:32,057 Speaker 1: the Silver Bean, you know, that's what I think, the 97 00:05:32,097 --> 00:05:35,177 Speaker 1: big Silver Bean thing. And sure enough, we go to 98 00:05:35,177 --> 00:05:38,697 Speaker 1: dinner two hours later and she says, you're not gonna 99 00:05:38,697 --> 00:05:41,057 Speaker 1: believe this. I just got an alert on my phone 100 00:05:41,097 --> 00:05:42,697 Speaker 1: because she was still working at Fox News and she 101 00:05:42,697 --> 00:05:45,617 Speaker 1: would get news alerts and she was very up on that. 102 00:05:45,777 --> 00:05:47,577 Speaker 1: She goes, I just got an alert on my phone. 103 00:05:47,897 --> 00:05:51,817 Speaker 1: There was a shooting, a fatal shooting in Millennium Park. 104 00:05:52,057 --> 00:05:55,137 Speaker 1: An hour after we left. Did think about this. There 105 00:05:55,217 --> 00:05:58,337 Speaker 1: was a fatal shooting on a beautiful day in the 106 00:05:58,497 --> 00:06:03,577 Speaker 1: most touristy and you know, well trod Well walked part 107 00:06:03,617 --> 00:06:06,217 Speaker 1: of the whole city and we were just there. I said, 108 00:06:06,257 --> 00:06:08,457 Speaker 1: you know, there is a problem here in Chicago. I 109 00:06:08,457 --> 00:06:11,257 Speaker 1: know you could say that's anecdotal, but it's an anecdote 110 00:06:11,457 --> 00:06:15,977 Speaker 1: added to the reality of a homicide rate that is appalling. 111 00:06:16,377 --> 00:06:18,937 Speaker 1: You're in a year have five point fifty six hundred, 112 00:06:18,977 --> 00:06:22,297 Speaker 1: I mean, crazy numbers of murders in this city. It's 113 00:06:22,297 --> 00:06:25,777 Speaker 1: only two million people. It's not that big. New York 114 00:06:25,857 --> 00:06:29,097 Speaker 1: is eight point five million people. Chicago has more murders 115 00:06:29,097 --> 00:06:32,737 Speaker 1: than New York and Chicago is a fourth the size. 116 00:06:32,857 --> 00:06:35,257 Speaker 1: You know, think about that for a second. So, yeah, 117 00:06:35,297 --> 00:06:37,817 Speaker 1: they've got a problem, and Trump wants to help them 118 00:06:37,857 --> 00:06:40,897 Speaker 1: fix it, and maybe they should just stop being so insane. 119 00:06:40,897 --> 00:06:42,657 Speaker 1: But we should dig in a little more here to 120 00:06:43,097 --> 00:06:45,417 Speaker 1: why is it that they refuse Why is it that 121 00:06:45,457 --> 00:06:49,977 Speaker 1: they are more willing to have the suffering and misery 122 00:06:50,217 --> 00:06:53,377 Speaker 1: of their own people than just to do the obvious thing. 123 00:06:53,377 --> 00:06:55,297 Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a second. You know, whatever, 124 00:06:55,297 --> 00:06:58,057 Speaker 1: there's a conversation with the word abortion. I understand it's 125 00:06:58,057 --> 00:07:00,417 Speaker 1: not an easy one, but it's not easy for you 126 00:07:00,457 --> 00:07:02,417 Speaker 1: going to bring up either. It's a tragedy that's happening 127 00:07:02,497 --> 00:07:04,697 Speaker 1: day in and day out in this country. And for 128 00:07:04,777 --> 00:07:08,977 Speaker 1: our friends at preborn clinics, it's a mission to stop abortion, 129 00:07:09,417 --> 00:07:12,817 Speaker 1: to do everything that they can to give women another choice, 130 00:07:12,897 --> 00:07:17,057 Speaker 1: another alternative to bring life into this world. It's the 131 00:07:17,137 --> 00:07:18,937 Speaker 1: choice of the mom. But they want to make this 132 00:07:19,057 --> 00:07:21,537 Speaker 1: choice as easy as possible by saying, look, we'll support you, 133 00:07:21,777 --> 00:07:24,817 Speaker 1: we give you love, we give you an ultrasound so 134 00:07:24,857 --> 00:07:28,697 Speaker 1: you can meet the baby in your womb. And preborn 135 00:07:28,737 --> 00:07:31,097 Speaker 1: clinics are just hoping that the more they can do this, 136 00:07:31,137 --> 00:07:33,417 Speaker 1: the more lives they can save. And they've saved hundreds 137 00:07:33,457 --> 00:07:35,777 Speaker 1: of thousands of lives already, over three hundred and fifty 138 00:07:35,777 --> 00:07:38,577 Speaker 1: thousand lives to date. This is happening every day. It's 139 00:07:38,577 --> 00:07:41,417 Speaker 1: why your monthly support to preborn is so critical. For 140 00:07:41,577 --> 00:07:43,857 Speaker 1: just twenty eight dollars a month, you can save a 141 00:07:43,937 --> 00:07:46,337 Speaker 1: life every month. That's the price of that ultrasound that 142 00:07:46,337 --> 00:07:49,337 Speaker 1: preborn uses to introduce mother to child. Now, pound two 143 00:07:49,417 --> 00:07:53,177 Speaker 1: fifty and say the keyword baby. That's pound from your phone, 144 00:07:53,297 --> 00:07:56,137 Speaker 1: pound two five zero. Say the keyword baby, or go 145 00:07:56,217 --> 00:07:59,897 Speaker 1: to preborn dot com slash buck preborn dot com slash 146 00:08:00,057 --> 00:08:05,217 Speaker 1: b u c K sponsored by preborn. UH. So now 147 00:08:05,217 --> 00:08:08,217 Speaker 1: we get to yeah, we talked about what Pritzker said, 148 00:08:09,017 --> 00:08:12,737 Speaker 1: and then you have the mayor of Chicago. Now, I 149 00:08:12,817 --> 00:08:17,097 Speaker 1: just remember this. There was a decision made by the 150 00:08:17,777 --> 00:08:23,177 Speaker 1: uh unfortunately by the voters of Chicago that they were 151 00:08:23,177 --> 00:08:25,217 Speaker 1: going to go in the absolute wrong direction when it 152 00:08:25,217 --> 00:08:27,857 Speaker 1: came to crime. It didn't have to be this way. 153 00:08:28,497 --> 00:08:30,577 Speaker 1: There was another candidate, I forget the guy's name, but 154 00:08:30,617 --> 00:08:34,697 Speaker 1: there's another candidate for the mayor's office that was running, 155 00:08:35,337 --> 00:08:37,657 Speaker 1: and he was he was a Democrat, but he said, look, 156 00:08:37,657 --> 00:08:39,257 Speaker 1: I'm going to clean up the crime. We're going to 157 00:08:39,337 --> 00:08:42,137 Speaker 1: back the cops. We're going to stop this this gang violence, 158 00:08:42,217 --> 00:08:47,137 Speaker 1: drug violence. And he lost to the worst guy on 159 00:08:47,257 --> 00:08:50,337 Speaker 1: crime in the whole city. When you listen to Brandon Johnson, 160 00:08:50,777 --> 00:08:52,977 Speaker 1: the mayor of Chicago and the pre mayor before him 161 00:08:53,017 --> 00:08:55,817 Speaker 1: was an abject moron as well, I mean abject moron. 162 00:08:56,097 --> 00:09:00,137 Speaker 1: Lori Lightfoot maybe the worst mayor in America, which is remarkable, 163 00:09:00,537 --> 00:09:03,737 Speaker 1: worse than Portland's mayor. I think it was Wheeler. What 164 00:09:03,777 --> 00:09:06,617 Speaker 1: a what a quizzling. That guy was worse than New 165 00:09:06,697 --> 00:09:09,257 Speaker 1: York's mayor at the time. To Blasio, I think that 166 00:09:09,337 --> 00:09:11,937 Speaker 1: lightfoot law life. What was the worst mayor in America 167 00:09:11,977 --> 00:09:15,897 Speaker 1: probably of a city of substantial size, And they made 168 00:09:15,897 --> 00:09:19,457 Speaker 1: it even worse with Brandon Johnson. This guy whenever he 169 00:09:19,577 --> 00:09:22,177 Speaker 1: and you know, he was just on MSNBC, whenever the 170 00:09:22,337 --> 00:09:27,817 Speaker 1: topic of crime comes up, he starts babbling about investment. 171 00:09:28,817 --> 00:09:33,377 Speaker 1: What investment? What investment is going to be made tomorrow, 172 00:09:33,737 --> 00:09:37,777 Speaker 1: next month, next year by the City of Chicago, by 173 00:09:37,817 --> 00:09:41,377 Speaker 1: his mayoral t his administration. That is going to save 174 00:09:41,417 --> 00:09:46,697 Speaker 1: a single life, that will stop one person from being shot. Oh, 175 00:09:47,177 --> 00:09:49,937 Speaker 1: we're gonna invest in our communities. What does that mean? 176 00:09:50,897 --> 00:09:54,257 Speaker 1: It has no meaning. Chicago already has a massive and 177 00:09:54,257 --> 00:09:56,617 Speaker 1: bloated bureaucracy and a lot of people working for the 178 00:09:56,657 --> 00:09:59,937 Speaker 1: City of Chicago who do very little. Well, what does 179 00:09:59,977 --> 00:10:03,457 Speaker 1: it mean? What does investig Oh you're gonna you're gonna 180 00:10:03,497 --> 00:10:06,897 Speaker 1: have more expensive public schools, you know, I mean you 181 00:10:06,937 --> 00:10:09,177 Speaker 1: look at this stuff and you say to yourself, there 182 00:10:09,417 --> 00:10:12,937 Speaker 1: should be so accountability here. You know, what is the 183 00:10:13,057 --> 00:10:19,297 Speaker 1: per pupil per pupil cost of a student in Chicago. 184 00:10:19,377 --> 00:10:21,857 Speaker 1: I'm doing this in uh, I'm doing this in real time. 185 00:10:21,857 --> 00:10:24,217 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you this per pupil cost of a 186 00:10:24,257 --> 00:10:26,697 Speaker 1: student in Chicago, because I think that when you start 187 00:10:26,737 --> 00:10:31,337 Speaker 1: to see they talk about investment, Oh, it's twenty nine 188 00:10:31,377 --> 00:10:37,057 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Twenty nine thousand dollars. Average CPS spending for 189 00:10:37,137 --> 00:10:41,697 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four was twenty thousand dollars, but one policy 190 00:10:41,777 --> 00:10:45,577 Speaker 1: report said it was twenty nine thousand dollars in twenty 191 00:10:45,617 --> 00:10:48,217 Speaker 1: twenty three. But even if it's twenty thousand dollars, they're 192 00:10:48,257 --> 00:10:51,137 Speaker 1: spending more than you would spend it. Ninety percent of 193 00:10:51,177 --> 00:10:53,977 Speaker 1: the private institutions for you know, Grammar school, high school 194 00:10:53,977 --> 00:10:56,417 Speaker 1: in America more than I don't even probably ninety nine percent 195 00:10:56,777 --> 00:11:00,457 Speaker 1: twenty thousand dollars a student. What is the investment that's 196 00:11:00,497 --> 00:11:04,617 Speaker 1: going to stop when the system is failing to prevent violence, 197 00:11:05,177 --> 00:11:08,497 Speaker 1: Ignoring the violence is to become complicit in it. And 198 00:11:08,537 --> 00:11:10,617 Speaker 1: that is where the Mayor of Chicago go and all 199 00:11:10,617 --> 00:11:12,377 Speaker 1: those who support him, and all those who go along, 200 00:11:12,457 --> 00:11:16,057 Speaker 1: this is where they are. It has to stop. Someone 201 00:11:16,097 --> 00:11:18,577 Speaker 1: has to step in and do something. Trump is showing 202 00:11:18,737 --> 00:11:23,537 Speaker 1: another way. In DC. The numbers are clear. It is 203 00:11:23,697 --> 00:11:27,177 Speaker 1: safer in d C now than it was before. And 204 00:11:27,257 --> 00:11:29,457 Speaker 1: every time some pundit comes out and goes, oh, I 205 00:11:29,457 --> 00:11:32,817 Speaker 1: don't like seeing an armored personnel carrier outside of Union Station. 206 00:11:34,257 --> 00:11:36,297 Speaker 1: First of all, I used to live near the armory 207 00:11:36,337 --> 00:11:38,457 Speaker 1: on the on the East side of Manhattan and there 208 00:11:38,457 --> 00:11:41,137 Speaker 1: were jeeps and armored personnel carries and things, you know, 209 00:11:41,257 --> 00:11:45,377 Speaker 1: in the neighborhood. Who gears it's a National Guard out post? 210 00:11:45,137 --> 00:11:47,857 Speaker 1: Why does this? Why does this make anybody uncomfortable? You 211 00:11:47,857 --> 00:11:51,057 Speaker 1: go into Europe and liberals, democrats, they love Europe. You'll 212 00:11:51,057 --> 00:11:53,177 Speaker 1: see if you go to Italy. The Carabinieri. These guys 213 00:11:53,177 --> 00:11:56,097 Speaker 1: are basically dressed up like paramilitaries, have got machine guns. 214 00:11:56,097 --> 00:11:57,977 Speaker 1: They're all over the place, walk in the streets, and 215 00:11:58,057 --> 00:12:00,297 Speaker 1: yeah they're their version of the National police, but they're 216 00:12:00,377 --> 00:12:03,337 Speaker 1: armed up like a military guys. They're not walking around 217 00:12:03,337 --> 00:12:05,617 Speaker 1: with his pistols. I mean, these guys have have machine 218 00:12:05,617 --> 00:12:09,417 Speaker 1: guns and submachine guns, so they're they're not freaking out 219 00:12:09,417 --> 00:12:12,257 Speaker 1: about it. So why do we get As I've said, 220 00:12:12,577 --> 00:12:17,177 Speaker 1: they deployed the National Guard for two airports for COVID. 221 00:12:17,457 --> 00:12:19,417 Speaker 1: What the heck was the National Guard going to do 222 00:12:19,817 --> 00:12:23,337 Speaker 1: at an airport when COVID was happening. It was just 223 00:12:23,377 --> 00:12:25,737 Speaker 1: to say we're in charge. It was just to say, 224 00:12:25,857 --> 00:12:28,417 Speaker 1: this is our response to a virus. But they won't 225 00:12:28,417 --> 00:12:30,137 Speaker 1: do it when it comes to gang bangers, they won't 226 00:12:30,177 --> 00:12:31,697 Speaker 1: do it when it comes to drug dealers, they won't 227 00:12:31,697 --> 00:12:32,977 Speaker 1: do it when it comes to people that are really 228 00:12:32,977 --> 00:12:36,457 Speaker 1: harming individuals who might actually pay attention to armed presence 229 00:12:36,497 --> 00:12:40,857 Speaker 1: on the streets of good guys. At some point, it's 230 00:12:40,897 --> 00:12:44,657 Speaker 1: just malevolent. At some point, the Democrats have crossed over 231 00:12:44,777 --> 00:12:50,657 Speaker 1: into a malevolent being a part of the problem when 232 00:12:50,657 --> 00:12:54,457 Speaker 1: it comes to crime. They are complicit in it. And 233 00:12:54,817 --> 00:12:57,857 Speaker 1: I think that's what what Trump realizes increasingly, and we're 234 00:12:57,897 --> 00:13:01,897 Speaker 1: seeing this play out because people say, you know, investment 235 00:13:01,897 --> 00:13:06,177 Speaker 1: in our community does mean investment in our communities. You 236 00:13:06,217 --> 00:13:08,537 Speaker 1: could spend you could double the budget of the Chicago 237 00:13:08,577 --> 00:13:10,577 Speaker 1: public school system. It would not change and murder right 238 00:13:10,617 --> 00:13:13,377 Speaker 1: next year guaranteed, guaranteed, and you know it and I 239 00:13:13,417 --> 00:13:17,177 Speaker 1: know it. So what is the investment that he's talking about, Oh, 240 00:13:17,257 --> 00:13:20,137 Speaker 1: we need you know more what more jobs training? The 241 00:13:20,297 --> 00:13:22,657 Speaker 1: people that he should be helping are the people who 242 00:13:22,737 --> 00:13:26,097 Speaker 1: already are doing jobs training as in going to jobs 243 00:13:26,097 --> 00:13:27,617 Speaker 1: that they have and they don't want to be robbed 244 00:13:27,617 --> 00:13:29,017 Speaker 1: and they don't want to be shot, and they don't 245 00:13:29,057 --> 00:13:32,137 Speaker 1: want bullets coming through their windows when they're trying to, 246 00:13:32,457 --> 00:13:34,697 Speaker 1: you know, just spend time alone or with their families 247 00:13:34,737 --> 00:13:36,697 Speaker 1: on the weekends. They just want to be safe in 248 00:13:36,697 --> 00:13:40,897 Speaker 1: their own communities. And they are disproportionately black. In the 249 00:13:40,937 --> 00:13:45,497 Speaker 1: case of Chicago, they're disproportionately the high crime, low income areas. 250 00:13:45,497 --> 00:13:48,337 Speaker 1: They're disproportionately black individuals, and they want to be safe 251 00:13:48,617 --> 00:13:51,737 Speaker 1: in their neighborhoods and they should have that right, and 252 00:13:51,777 --> 00:13:54,177 Speaker 1: they should have the law enforcement presence and the resources 253 00:13:54,297 --> 00:13:56,697 Speaker 1: necessary to provide them with safety so they can go 254 00:13:56,737 --> 00:13:58,577 Speaker 1: to school and go to work and live their lives 255 00:13:58,577 --> 00:14:02,457 Speaker 1: in peace and security and not have babbling idiocy about 256 00:14:02,497 --> 00:14:05,617 Speaker 1: investing in our communities. What does it even keep this crazy? 257 00:14:06,137 --> 00:14:09,137 Speaker 1: It's nonsense, all right. Our sponsor here is Paradigm Press. 258 00:14:09,137 --> 00:14:12,177 Speaker 1: You know, it keeps me up artificial superintelligence, and the 259 00:14:12,257 --> 00:14:14,417 Speaker 1: Chinese are getting a lead on us when it comes 260 00:14:14,457 --> 00:14:17,097 Speaker 1: to this. It's a big problem, and Biden made it 261 00:14:17,097 --> 00:14:19,937 Speaker 1: so much worse because he tied Ai in this country 262 00:14:19,977 --> 00:14:21,777 Speaker 1: up in red tape. Now Trump's trying to fix this, 263 00:14:22,297 --> 00:14:25,017 Speaker 1: but there's a lot that still needs to be done. Fortunately, 264 00:14:25,057 --> 00:14:27,657 Speaker 1: Trump is preparing an estimated two point two trillion dollar 265 00:14:27,697 --> 00:14:30,377 Speaker 1: counter offensive when I'm calling Manhattan Project too. It's going 266 00:14:30,417 --> 00:14:33,537 Speaker 1: to rebuild America's AI dominance. And for investors who get 267 00:14:33,577 --> 00:14:36,657 Speaker 1: in before the money begins flowing as soon as October fifteenth, 268 00:14:36,657 --> 00:14:39,417 Speaker 1: this could be a once in a lifetime financial opportunity. Look, 269 00:14:39,497 --> 00:14:41,377 Speaker 1: you got to see the interview that I do on 270 00:14:41,417 --> 00:14:43,937 Speaker 1: this one. You got to see the whole video presentation. 271 00:14:44,657 --> 00:14:47,057 Speaker 1: And there are some companies that we mention in this 272 00:14:47,257 --> 00:14:49,777 Speaker 1: that I think could be of huge benefit to investors. 273 00:14:49,977 --> 00:14:52,097 Speaker 1: So we get into specifics, but let's go off air 274 00:14:52,137 --> 00:14:55,857 Speaker 1: with this one.

And I have to say I'm 279 00:15:11,097 --> 00:15:16,497 Speaker 1: also very pleased to see the response that is happening 280 00:15:16,537 --> 00:15:19,177 Speaker 1: across the country to Trump's moves and what he's doing. 281 00:15:20,017 --> 00:15:22,537 Speaker 1: He's winning on this issue, so that's the good news. 282 00:15:22,777 --> 00:15:24,617 Speaker 1: Something else that happened that I just wanted to do, 283 00:15:24,657 --> 00:15:30,537 Speaker 1: what to mention here, is you have a strike. I mean, 284 00:15:30,577 --> 00:15:34,257 Speaker 1: it's pretty remarkable, a strike on a drug boat coming 285 00:15:34,297 --> 00:15:38,097 Speaker 1: out of Venezuela. This was after the show, after the 286 00:15:38,137 --> 00:15:44,177 Speaker 1: Tuesday radio show finished. This is pretty remarkable. You had 287 00:15:44,177 --> 00:15:47,137 Speaker 1: a drug boat that was leaving and it was a 288 00:15:47,337 --> 00:15:52,697 Speaker 1: designated narco. Here we go US military. A US military 289 00:15:53,257 --> 00:15:55,977 Speaker 1: attacked a vessel from Venezuela and the Caribbean that it 290 00:15:56,057 --> 00:16:00,817 Speaker 1: said was carrying illegal drugs, the first known operation of 291 00:16:00,937 --> 00:16:04,017 Speaker 1: the Trump administration since the surge of warships to the region. 292 00:16:04,897 --> 00:16:08,857 Speaker 1: President Trump, he told the reporters about this one. It's 293 00:16:09,297 --> 00:16:11,497 Speaker 1: remarkable what's gone on here. 294 00:16:12,137 --> 00:16:15,817 Speaker 2: Are great General head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 295 00:16:15,817 --> 00:16:21,097 Speaker 2: who has been so incredible, including what took place in Iran, 296 00:16:21,857 --> 00:16:27,217 Speaker 2: knocking out potential nuclear power for a long time to come. 297 00:16:27,257 --> 00:16:28,977 Speaker 2: I think within a month they would have had it. 298 00:16:29,137 --> 00:16:32,217 Speaker 2: We didn't do what we did, but he gave us 299 00:16:32,217 --> 00:16:35,817 Speaker 2: a little bit of a briefing and you'll see, and 300 00:16:35,817 --> 00:16:38,737 Speaker 2: there's more where that came from. We have a lot 301 00:16:38,777 --> 00:16:41,097 Speaker 2: of drugs pouring into our country, coming in for a 302 00:16:41,097 --> 00:16:44,697 Speaker 2: long time, and we just these came out of Venezuela 303 00:16:45,217 --> 00:16:47,657 Speaker 2: and coming out very heavily from Venezuela. A lot of 304 00:16:47,657 --> 00:16:50,697 Speaker 2: things are coming out of Venezuela. So we took it 305 00:16:50,737 --> 00:16:54,457 Speaker 2: out and you'll get to see that after this, after 306 00:16:54,497 --> 00:16:55,657 Speaker 2: this meeting is over. 307 00:16:56,377 --> 00:17:01,777 Speaker 1: So, yeah, now we're actually using military force against narco traffickers. 308 00:17:02,897 --> 00:17:06,257 Speaker 1: That's going to have an effect that's going to change 309 00:17:06,297 --> 00:17:08,697 Speaker 1: the calculation for them. That's going to change the game 310 00:17:08,777 --> 00:17:11,177 Speaker 1: for the bad guys, which is isn't that what we want? 311 00:17:11,937 --> 00:17:14,417 Speaker 1: Isn't that what we want? The cartels operate like a 312 00:17:14,457 --> 00:17:23,377 Speaker 1: paramilitary organization, a transnational, highly funded, extremely ultraviolent criminal entity 313 00:17:24,177 --> 00:17:28,937 Speaker 1: that engages in terrorism, and the Venezuelan government is involved 314 00:17:28,937 --> 00:17:32,657 Speaker 1: that they are sanctioned for narco trafficking, sanctioned members of 315 00:17:32,657 --> 00:17:35,857 Speaker 1: the Venezuelan government. Although up to the very top, all 316 00:17:35,897 --> 00:17:37,857 Speaker 1: the way to the very top of the Venezuelan government, 317 00:17:37,937 --> 00:17:40,257 Speaker 1: I mean the top top, you have people who are 318 00:17:40,257 --> 00:17:44,537 Speaker 1: sanctioned for narco trafficking and they're poisoning Americans. They're killing 319 00:17:44,617 --> 00:17:47,697 Speaker 1: Americans with these drugs because they're sending over fentinel. We're 320 00:17:47,737 --> 00:17:49,817 Speaker 1: not blowing up ships full of marijuana. They're sending over 321 00:17:49,857 --> 00:17:53,457 Speaker 1: fentinyl and they're killing people. So we've now seen a 322 00:17:53,497 --> 00:17:56,137 Speaker 1: Trump administration that is going to do something about this, 323 00:17:56,657 --> 00:17:58,257 Speaker 1: and I think you're just seeing the beginning of this. 324 00:17:58,337 --> 00:18:01,777 Speaker 1: I've been hearing for a while in back channel that 325 00:18:01,897 --> 00:18:03,817 Speaker 1: the war against the cartels is going to start looking 326 00:18:03,817 --> 00:18:06,617 Speaker 1: a lot more like a war against cartels. If you 327 00:18:06,617 --> 00:18:08,457 Speaker 1: have never seen the movie Clear in Present Danger, I 328 00:18:08,457 --> 00:18:10,617 Speaker 1: think we're going to be entering into the Trump Aministration's 329 00:18:10,657 --> 00:18:14,657 Speaker 1: clear and Present Danger era of the fight against the cartels. 330 00:18:15,137 --> 00:18:17,337 Speaker 1: And when you think about almost one hundred thousand Americans 331 00:18:17,337 --> 00:18:19,777 Speaker 1: a year dying of drug overdoses, and a lot of 332 00:18:19,777 --> 00:18:24,057 Speaker 1: them dying of what as a hot batch or drugs 333 00:18:24,097 --> 00:18:27,337 Speaker 1: that are even more lethal than name can realize because 334 00:18:27,377 --> 00:18:29,017 Speaker 1: of how they're mixed together, and people don't know what 335 00:18:29,057 --> 00:18:33,057 Speaker 1: they're getting and they're getting poisoned.
