What's the latest? They call these 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: street releases. 7 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 2: We've got hundreds of people being dropped off. 8 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 1: It's getting worse, and we're the nation's fastest growing news 9 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: program for a reason. Real journalism. They're all marching down 10 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: to the White House. Sounds to me. 11 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 2: Bad, like they won't be happy until Israel doesn't exist. 12 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: Real American News. America is under chemical warfare attack. That 13 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: film is the weapon. Thank you for everything you're doing. 14 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 4: I appreciate you guys very very much. 15 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: This is America's Voice Live with Steve Grouper. Welcome to 16 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: America's Voice Live. 17 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 2: I'm Steve Gradia's Friday, the twenty seventh of December, winding 18 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 2: this year out. 19 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: Thank you for being here today. 20 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 2: Mexico preparing for an incoming Trump presidency and Trump's plan. 21 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: To send back massive amount severe legals. Hello in Mexico. 22 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 2: I'll be discussing what they're doing right now to prepare 23 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: over there also one of President Trump's promises is to 24 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 2: free some of the January sixth prisoners. Will you do 25 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 2: it as soon as possible? Will it take some time? 26 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: We'll get to that. And then later, with TikTok approaching 27 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 2: its expiration date, can the upcoming Trump four year term 28 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 2: save the Chinese Company. We'll talk about it and all that 29 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 2: and much more coming up in America's Voice. 30 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: Live, but we start here today. 31 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: In China, they've unveiled two advanced stealth fighter jets, signaling 32 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 2: a significant leap in its military aviation capabilities. The first aircraft, 33 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 2: developed by Chengdu Aircraft Corporation, features a tailless design with 34 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,839 Speaker 2: a distinctive air intake system, possibly indicating a three engine 35 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: configuration aimed at enhancing speed and high altitude performance. 36 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: Think about the SR seventy one when you look at that. 37 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 2: A second jet, produced by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation is a smaller, 38 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: twin engine model with swept wings and angular intakes emphasize 39 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: stealth and agility. Now, these developments suggest China's commitment to 40 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 2: advance against aerial combat technology, and experts. 41 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: Are talking, but not in a good way. 42 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: A lot of folks starting to wonder of China's ramping 43 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 2: things up because they're getting ready for a potential military 44 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: showdown that of course would be with the United States. 45 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: Joining me now to discuss this is retired Army colonel 46 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 2: and former Special Assistant to President Trump, Colonel Derek Harvey, 47 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 2: and thirty two year United States Air Force combat veteran 48 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 2: Colonel Rob Manis. 49 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: Colonel, Colonel, thank you for being here. It's good to 50 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: be with you. 51 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: Thanks, Derek. Let me start with you. Let's just get 52 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: your first knee jerk reaction. Look I'm looking at and 53 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 2: we talked about this just before we came on. They 54 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 2: also have this brand new amphibious ship called the Sishwan, 55 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 2: the biggest amphibious assault ship ever built apparently in the world. 56 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 2: Everywhere you look the Bluewater Navy, the advanced aviation platforms, 57 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: the advanced platform for their navy and for their abilities 58 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: to assault an attack. I mean, everywhere you look at 59 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 2: the Chinese military, it's being upgraded and improved. And it's concerning, 60 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 2: isn't it. 61 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: It absolutely is. And you know, going back a number 62 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 3: of years, you know, the Congress on the Republican side 63 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: and the Trump administration were focused on this challenge to 64 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 3: you know America's role in the world, and particularly the 65 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 3: expansion across all spectrums air, sea, land, and space. And 66 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 3: they're expanding their nuclear triad that's land based missiles, submarine 67 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 3: and sea based missiles as well as you know, air fired, 68 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 3: long range, medium and long range bomber nuclear capability. So 69 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 3: they're building a modern triad. They're expanding their nuclear capability. 70 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: They hoped to overtake us. So it's not just fighterships 71 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: or you know, the newly designed released you know mid 72 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: range bomber probably is a mid range bomber with advanced 73 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 3: capabilities and clearly stealth that's going to challenge US, not 74 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 3: just in that part of the world, but in other 75 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 3: parts of the world too. 76 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 77 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: Ever since nineteen seventy two in Richardixon normalized relations, the 78 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: Chinese Communist Party has taken advantage of every weakness, every 79 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 2: ability to exploit every possible everything in the world rob 80 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,679 Speaker 2: to be fair, and they've used this ability to build 81 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 2: a military that in nineteen seventy two was maybe questionable. 82 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,119 Speaker 1: Today it is top flight. 83 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 2: I would say it's safe to say China is a superpower? 84 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? No? I think you're right. 85 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 5: There's no longer this discussion about near peer status for China, 86 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 5: especially from a nuclear perspective. 87 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: As Derek just pointed out. 88 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 5: They dramatically increased their intercontinentabilistic missile nuclear deliverable capabilities over 89 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 5: the last few years. The aircraft carriers, they've now got 90 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 5: three in this large amphibious carre. Rumor is that it's 91 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 5: going to be converted to a complete aircraft carrier also. 92 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 5: And then this announcement for these two aircraft, and I 93 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 5: hesitate the call at least the larger of the two 94 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 5: pure fighter I think six generation is the term that's 95 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 5: been used for that. That puts them on par with 96 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 5: us with our next air dominance generation aircraft that we've 97 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 5: been working on, and that means stealth technology over and 98 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 5: above what the F thirty five is capable of and 99 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 5: the F twenty two is capable of. 100 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: The larger of the aircraft. 101 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 5: You don't build those if you're just thinking about defending 102 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 5: yourselves or just thinking about taking Taiwan and holding it. 103 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 5: You build those when you want to reach out and 104 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 5: challenge the biggest player in the world, and that is 105 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 5: the United States of America, and they'll probably be at 106 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 5: least the larger one will be nuclear capable more than likely, 107 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 5: and that puts them on the same level as US 108 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 5: as a superpower when you combine it with their Belt 109 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 5: and Road initiative around the world, their control of the 110 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 5: Panama Canal that they currently have. It's a significant challenge 111 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 5: and it's time the United States turn and face that 112 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 5: challenge instead of being distracted by other things around the world. 113 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 2: I believe, I believe we'll see some change of who's 114 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: running things on the Big Ditch. The Panama candal coming up, 115 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 2: I think we'll see some change there. Derek, let me 116 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: ask you this, when you look at capabilities now, I 117 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 2: mean if you went back twenty years and you said Russia, Chinese, 118 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 2: say Russia. Based on Russia's inept performance in large part 119 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: in Ukraine, I would say that Russia is not the 120 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 2: second most powerful country on the planet at this point. 121 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: I would say, clearly it's China for all the things 122 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 2: that Rob just pointed out and expanding daily. Why because 123 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: they have extracted resources from the United States both intellectually 124 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 2: and financially the last twenty years, and it accelerated during 125 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: the last four years under a president and station that 126 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 2: I think is fair to say could well have been 127 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: compromised by the Chinese Communist Party. 128 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:07,799 Speaker 1: Derek, what do you say to that. 129 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: Well, that's absolutely correct, and we examined this issue on 130 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: the House Intelligence Committee, and unfortunately the hard work did 131 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 3: not continue under the last four years of this administration. 132 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 3: But the advantages that they've gained by not just theft 133 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 3: of our research and development, which is in the hundreds 134 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 3: of billions of dollars a year, it's also in the 135 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 3: investment by US financial entities into the state of the 136 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 3: art technologies that are underpinning the critical technology developments for hypersonic, 137 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 3: for artificial intelligence, for logistics management, for command and control 138 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 3: that is allowing China to lete f aug US and 139 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: gain advantages. Unfortunately, we do not have the advantages in 140 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 3: platforms and in capabilities that we once relied upon. 141 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, can we undo the damage? I think that's a 142 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: question that a lot of Americans have, Rob. I think 143 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: there are a lot of questions about well, Chinese spies, 144 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 2: Chinese nationals coming over our southern border, Chinese infiltrators working 145 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: at our universities. We saw a bio lab in California 146 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 2: a few months ago. They had all sorts of pathogens 147 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 2: that were unprotected and. 148 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: Just there in a haphazard way. 149 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 2: Can we undo the damage of the sloppiness, the recklessness, 150 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: the laziness frankly, of the last four years. What's it 151 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 2: going to take for the Trump administration to get things 152 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 2: works back on track and start to correct it. 153 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: Well, Steve, that's a great question. 154 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 5: Fortunately, with Trump's nomination of Elbritge Colby as the Under 155 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 5: Secretary of Defense for Policy the number three position and 156 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 5: depending on he wrote the twenty eighteen National Defense Strategy, 157 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 5: and that is by in large state in place, even 158 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 5: though the Biden administration has been basically ignoring it. But 159 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 5: internally we have to take a hard look at all 160 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 5: of these Chinese military aged mills that have come through. 161 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 5: We have arrested three or four now Chinese nationals that 162 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 5: have been caught from coast to coast and all the 163 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 5: way up in the wayIn right Alaska. Chinese nationals either 164 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 5: trying to infiltrate or using drones to surveil national security 165 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,479 Speaker 5: installations like the F twenty two base in Hampton Rose, Virginia, 166 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 5: the aircraft carrier Harbor at Norfolk, Virginia, the Newport News 167 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 5: Shipbuilding Yard, Ingles Shipbuilding Yard, Vandenberg Space Force space where 168 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 5: we launch our military ballistic missiles and other satellite launches 169 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 5: for the military from Fort Waynwright, Alaska, where Chinese nationals 170 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 5: tried to infiltrate the base. And that's not the first 171 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 5: time at military installations where they've just tried to come 172 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 5: on base and said they had appointments and everything. It 173 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 5: had to be intercepted. So we've got some challenges there 174 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 5: internally we've got to take care of. And with this 175 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 5: new leadership team on the Trump side, I think we'll 176 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 5: be able to get there. But it's going to take 177 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 5: so work. 178 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 2: All right, The difference between a conspiracy theory and fact 179 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 2: is about six months, give or take. I'm told so 180 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: I'm going to wait into this, Derek. I am going 181 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 2: to walk right in and say, look, what's up with 182 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 2: all these drones in New Jersey and the Eastern seaboard. 183 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 2: Some people suggesting that it's Chinese based or Chinese encouraged. 184 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 2: I don't know. And the problem is, I don't think 185 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 2: we're geting any straight answers anywhere. It hasn't gone anywhere. 186 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 2: We have been distracted by other things now, but it 187 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: is still going on. Is it something I actually concern 188 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 2: myself with is it a foreign entity? Is it something 189 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 2: that I should not be concerned with? 190 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: Well, who knows? At this point. I don't have access 191 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 3: to the intelligence, Steve, and you know, I'm as be 192 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 3: phottled as you. The administration said it's not a threat 193 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 3: at all, but I don't believe them at this point. 194 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,839 Speaker 3: And I'd be curious as to what Colonel Manus has 195 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 3: to say on this. 196 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 5: Rob Well, I think it's a combination of various actors, 197 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 5: but the primary actors at our military installations and our research, 198 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 5: our national security research facility installations like Wright Patterson Air 199 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 5: Force Space where the airspace was closed by the base 200 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 5: commander just a couple of weeks ago for four solid 201 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 5: hours due to unknown drone activity. Those I believe are 202 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 5: Chinese nationals, and we have the facts to back that up, 203 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 5: the arrests that have been made and those kind of things. 204 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 5: But up in the Northeast around Bedminster and that area, 205 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 5: I suspect that there's more than just a Chinese adversary 206 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 5: activity going on, and it's something else you look at, 207 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 5: you know what, it looks and smells a lot like 208 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 5: a US government operation. I just talked to somebody in 209 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 5: New Jersey moments before coming on the show and got 210 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 5: a first hand report that the drone activity has all 211 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 5: of a sudden dropped off. 212 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 1: Over the holidays. 213 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 5: Well, that's pretty specific time frame, and government employees didn't 214 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 5: take the day off of the days off over the holidays, 215 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 5: So I suspect there's some government operations going on with 216 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 5: some of these, but the ones over Aultar installations and 217 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 5: our research facilities, those are Chinese nationals. 218 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure. Well, Rob, you probably know this. 219 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 2: The drone activity exploded about November the eighteenth, and then 220 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: it stopped completely on Thanksgiving, and now you're telling me 221 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 2: it has dropped off during Christmas. Remarkable that the drones 222 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 2: have holidays off in this country. But hey, like I said, 223 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 2: a conspiracy theory to fact is about six months generally speaking. 224 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: Last thing, guys still watching Syria and that melt down 225 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: post asad, what are your concerns Derek, just real quick? 226 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 3: Well, I think my concern is that we don't get 227 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 3: entangled in that. But we need to protect and work 228 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 3: with our allies and friends, but we need to make 229 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 3: sure that we understand the regime that's coming into power 230 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 3: there and try to engage it in some way. 231 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: But we should not become entangled. 232 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 3: We should protect our friends and allies and try to 233 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 3: shape that regime as best we can. But I'm very 234 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 3: concerned about the directors headed well. Rob. 235 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 2: My concern is we trade the devil we know for 236 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: the jovel you don't, and we can end up with 237 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 2: something worth something akin to what's based in Tehran, an 238 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: Islamic republic of some sort of sera. That would be 239 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 2: my concern in reconstituting a terrorist organization in charge. 240 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: I'll give you the last word, Rob, Yeah, I share 241 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: Derek's concern. 242 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 5: You know, we can't be naive and make an assumption 243 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 5: that just because al Jilani looks and sounds like a 244 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 5: Western Islamist that he's going to govern that way. And 245 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 5: more than likely he's going to turn to his al 246 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 5: Kata and al Nustra nature and become an Islamic Jihadis 247 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 5: type government. 248 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: And in that part of. 249 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 5: The world, we're going to have to really lean on 250 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 5: our allies, especially Turkey and Israel and Jordan, to help 251 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 5: engage that government, like Derek said, and see if we 252 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 5: can shape the outcome of the situation to the advantage 253 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 5: of peace and prosperity. Instead of the crazy old style killing. 254 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: Rob. 255 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: I give you credit. You're more optimistic than I am. 256 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 2: You see, I don't consider Turkey to be very much 257 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,839 Speaker 2: our ally anymore, but maybe I'm mistaken out of. 258 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: That, Derek. Rob greatly appreciate you being here. Gentlemen. 259 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 2: We've got a very busy and intention in front of us. 260 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 2: Happy New Year to both of us. Let's hope that 261 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: it works in our favor. Happy new Year, Steve, gentlemen, 262 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: thank you so very much. Good conversation. There is so 263 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 2: much going on we need to keep track of, and 264 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 2: so there you go. We're going to take a break 265 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 2: and be right back here. It is America's voice Live. 266 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 2: Don't go anywhere, you know. 267 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: I believe the memo was delivered. 268 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 2: Why do I say that, Well, because Mexico seems to 269 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: me bracing itself for the mass arrival of folks being 270 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 2: deported of the United States because of their illegal status. 271 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: Here preparing a total of twenty five new shelters holding 272 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 2: over twelve thousand beds. It's a nice start, Mexico. You'll 273 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 2: need a lot more. Five of the shelters we located 274 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: in the area just south of San Diego. Two others 275 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 2: we set up in south of el central California, and 276 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 2: these shelters are set to open on the day of 277 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 2: President elect Donald Trump's inauguration January twentieth, good timing where 278 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 2: he has said that from day one he will close 279 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 2: the borders art the mass deportations of illegal aliens. 280 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: On the direction of Tom Holman. 281 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 2: Hear me to discuss this as the director of the 282 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 2: Heritage Foundation's Border Security Immigration Center. 283 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: Laura Reech, Laura, nice to have you back, Dave. 284 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: Look, I don't think that any crime, and there's been 285 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 2: a lot of them, but I don't think any crime 286 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 2: has gotten the attention of America. Like a woman being 287 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 2: set on fire on a subway car in New York 288 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 2: City by an illegal who came into this country in 289 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, was flagged, tagged and removed within a few days, 290 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: and then at some point came back as a got away. 291 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 2: There's been This is a monster, This is a gut 292 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 2: wrenching crime. Little woman on fire, let her burned to 293 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 2: death alive. It was horrible, And I think this has 294 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 2: America's attention. I think it's why they voted Donald Trump 295 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 2: in and I think that Americans are more with Donald 296 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 2: Trump and deporting these illegals than they've ever been. 297 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 6: What say you, I agree worse this illegal alien flant 298 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 6: fanned the flames and sat there and watched. Unfortunately, some 299 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 6: police that looks by and other passer buyers didn't stop 300 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 6: to help this woman, and now she's dead. 301 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 2: Well that was That was gut wrenching too, Laura. That 302 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 2: was horrible too. But I wonder you know, look, the 303 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: police officer in New York City our gun shy because. 304 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: If they intervene, are get involved. 305 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 2: They're concerned about getting themselves in trouble, getting themselves prosecuted 306 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: for god only knows what because of this crazy left 307 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 2: wing attitude and law enforcement. 308 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: But we'll get back to that another day. 309 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 2: Right now, I believe that Tom Holman, a guy that 310 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: I would not want to irritate, is going to be 311 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: directly responsible for starting this program. There are almost seven 312 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 2: hundred thousand illegals in this country right now, Laura that 313 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 2: have their discharge papers. 314 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: If you will. 315 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 2: They have been ordered out of the country and they're 316 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 2: still here. There's priority one for day one, but then 317 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 2: it goes from there, doesn't it. 318 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 6: Yes, we've got national security threats, terror threats, convicted aggravated felons, rapists, murders, 319 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 6: and yes, the over a million aliens who already have 320 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 6: final orders of removal but who have absconded. So plenty 321 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 6: of work for Tom Holman and others to do out 322 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 6: of the gate. And it's important that Americans who voted 323 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 6: for this and for the first time expressed overwhelming support 324 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 6: for mass deportations continue that support over the long haul, 325 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 6: because the Left will work mightily to show pictures of 326 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 6: children and give stories to try and chip away at 327 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 6: American support for enforcing our immigration laws. 328 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 1: So let me ask you. 329 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 2: This, because Tom Holman has been kind of well, he's 330 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 2: kind of been clear about this. We're in a city 331 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 2: and you say, look where a sanctuary city. Do not 332 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 2: come here ice, He says, we're going there first. Because 333 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 2: of the supremacy clause. He says, the federal government will 334 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 2: dictate how we're removing these people. And if you're a 335 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 2: mayor or a governor, you're saying you're not allowed to 336 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: come to our state. 337 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: He says, we'll see about that. 338 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 2: And I don't again, I do not think this is 339 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 2: a man you want to cross, because he has laser 340 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 2: focused on the job at hand. 341 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 1: Isn't he. 342 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 6: He is very serious about enforcing the law and protecting 343 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 6: American citizens, and that's why he is doing this yet again, 344 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 6: he's come out of retirement at least twice. And so, yeah, 345 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 6: sanctuary cities, they need to comply with the law. And 346 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 6: if they are going to harbor illegal aliens in these instances, 347 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 6: we're talking about criminal aliens, then they can be prosecuted. 348 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 6: And contrast this with the Biden administration, which is still 349 00:18:54,000 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 6: in power currently, who sued the governor of Texas or 350 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 6: trying to secure its border, and the Biden administration said, no, 351 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 6: immigration law is federal. It creatempts what you are doing 352 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 6: at the state level, and we're taking you to court 353 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 6: to force you to cooperate with us. Now, suddenly, with 354 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 6: Trump coming into power, some of these mayors and governors 355 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 6: are saying, no, we're not going to cooperate. So they've 356 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 6: done a one eighty. 357 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what, They're going to have a real 358 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 2: problem there because it's the will of the people, and 359 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 2: you know, with the consent of the governed, the president 360 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 2: can do a lot. If you don't have the support 361 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 2: of those in the country, you can't do much at all. 362 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: But he has their support. His approval ranger in the 363 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 2: mid to high fifties. That's higher than it's ever been, 364 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 2: Joe Biden, lower than it's ever been. 365 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: I think America has. 366 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: Had all they can take of these left wing policies, 367 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 2: and they're ready for a change. 368 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: I give you the last word. 369 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think the left is setting a trap for 370 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 6: only allowing say, criminals to be awarded, but everyone else 371 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 6: should be left alone and permitted to stay here for 372 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 6: years and years longer, even though they too have broken 373 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 6: the law. And it's important that we not fall for 374 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 6: that trap. If you have violated the law, we need 375 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 6: to enforce the law. We need to apply consequences if 376 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 6: we ever hope to get to what everyone claims they support, 377 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 6: which is legal immigration. If you want to encourage people 378 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 6: to use our numerous and generous pathways of legal immigration, 379 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 6: then you need to shut off the illegal immigration. And 380 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 6: that means applying consequences. 381 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 2: Right, JEF to stop illegal immigration. But a lot of 382 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 2: people are not supporting of H one. Bv says either. 383 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: There's going to be some battles there. We'll see how 384 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 2: those play out. Early in twenty twenty five, Lord, I'm 385 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 2: sure we'll have you back to talk about that, because 386 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 2: the problem is to take a long time to solve. 387 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 2: So we have plenty to talk about.

Obviously, everybody in this line of work posts 530 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 4: contents and clips of the media to their social media platforms, 531 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 4: and it's just one of those that you kind of 532 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 4: include on your things. But at the same time, you 533 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 4: know that's not the main source of viewership. On TikTok 534 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 4: for me, as I know it is for some people, 535 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 4: and it's it'll be really really interesting to see how 536 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 4: this unfolds. 537 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: Hey, it's interesting. 538 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 2: Look, I joined TikTok about a month ago. I'd never done, 539 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 2: and had some people tell me you need to get 540 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 2: on there. 541 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: I did it. I got two million views. I thought 542 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: that was pretty cool. 543 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 2: Of course, I've been thrown in TikTok jail so many times, 544 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 2: just like, wow, can you say anything here? I violate 545 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 2: the community guidelines. They should see me in person, see 546 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 2: what I violate anyhow, Joe Bob, I'm serious now. 547 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: I've been talking. It's like you can't say anything there 548 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: on Twitter. I can say anything. 549 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 2: I mean videos, I put them on Twitter perfectly fine. 550 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 2: So there's a big push to sell TikTok away from 551 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 2: China because look, I've talked to people good friends. 552 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: Of mine, like John Solomon. 553 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 2: So you have no idea how bad it is how 554 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 2: they spy on us and the things that they do 555 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 2: and then manipulate messages. 556 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 1: So there is some real downside to TikTok, isn't there? 557 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 4: Yeah? You know, this is one of those issues where 558 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 4: Americans who are paying attention are kind of forced to 559 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 4: have two thoughts in their head at the same time. 560 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 4: On one hand, yeah, it's not the best idea for 561 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 4: the Chinese government, arguably America's biggest enemy at the moment, 562 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 4: to influence and have the influence that they have on 563 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 4: our younger generation. Imagine, well, let's just say, an enemy 564 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 4: of the United States during World War Two being able 565 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 4: to put whatever they wanted on the front page of 566 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 4: the New York Times. That's effectively what China is able 567 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 4: to do. At the same time, I do understand and 568 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 4: sympathize with a lot of the people that don't like 569 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 4: the specific piece of legislation because it feels like it 570 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 4: gives the government too much power to ban outright ban 571 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 4: companies from doing business in the United States. So those 572 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 4: two things, in my opinion, need to be taken into consideration. One, Yeah, 573 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 4: we don't want China influencing our young people because again, 574 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 4: arguably they're the biggest enemy in the United States. And 575 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 4: we also don't want the government having free reign to 576 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 4: ban whoever they want to ban just because they want 577 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 4: to ban it. 578 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: So I think if. 579 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 4: A log well, if the law was more specific, I 580 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 4: think you'd have a lot more people jumping on the 581 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 4: bandwagon saying, yeah, maybe we don't want to China have 582 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 4: all this influence. The problem is that Washington does what 583 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 4: was Washington did what Washington does, and kind of obvious 584 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 4: skates all of the actual things going on and in 585 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 4: favor of more power to themselves. 586 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 2: And look, would an americanized version of TikTok be the same? 587 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: Look? People like it because they're quick little videos. 588 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 2: There's cute things, and there's cooking, and there's exercise, and 589 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 2: there's in all sorts of crazy whatever. There's funny stuff 590 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 2: on there. It's fun. I don't pay much attention. I 591 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 2: don't have time to look at all the little videos. 592 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 2: I've seen enough of them though that have been shared around. 593 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 2: If it was an americanized platform sold to mister Wonderful 594 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 2: or anybody else, what would that mean. 595 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: They would change? 596 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 4: I mean, it would mean effectively what we have already 597 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 4: in other platforms. Really, you're making a choice between platforms. Now, 598 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,239 Speaker 4: obviously some creators have a bigger following on you know, 599 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 4: YouTube versus Rumble, versus x versus Instagram, But at the 600 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 4: same time they all kind of do a very similar thing. 601 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 4: The people really like the TikTok algorithm. They like the 602 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 4: way that the algorithm recognizes what they want to watch. 603 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 4: And at the same time, you know, this is all 604 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 4: completely anecdotal, but I also think that TikTok kind of 605 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 4: fudges some of their numbers. Again, no hard evidence on this, 606 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 4: I just from my own experience, have seen some things 607 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 4: go nuts and you get a couple million views and 608 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 4: then nothing for a while, And I think they have 609 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 4: every reason to inflate those numbers. So when the question 610 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 4: becomes well what other apps can do, what TikTok does 611 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 4: effectively pretty much all of them. And so if you're 612 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,800 Speaker 4: looking at it just from that perspective, I don't necessarily 613 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 4: know that not having TikTok around is the biggest problem 614 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 4: for Americans as a whole. Now, again, if your entire 615 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 4: following is on TikTok, yeah, I guess that's not awesome 616 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 4: that you're going to have to move to another platform. 617 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,240 Speaker 4: But at the same time, it's not like the government 618 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 4: is trying to ban every single social media platform. And 619 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 4: so while I do think the government probably overstepped its 620 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 4: bounds here, I do think we have a problem with China, 621 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 4: and I think we've got to sort that out. And 622 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 4: this is one of those pretty nuanced issues that unfortunately 623 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 4: a lot of Americans, at least they're paying attention to 624 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 4: the media say hard yes, hard no, without really any 625 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 4: sort of discussion in their own mind about what is 626 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 4: actually good for the American people and what the powers 627 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 4: of the government should be or limited. 628 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: To time for discussion. Jill Bomba. 629 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 2: I agree with that. That's why. That's why you come 630 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 2: on here to talk about the things that matter. And 631 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter to enough people that it's worth the conversation. 632 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 2: But I don't want to be spied on. I don't 633 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 2: want to give China an upper hand, but I don't 634 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 2: want to take away freedom of speech either. That's the conversation. 635 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:16,879 Speaker 1: Joe, Bob, Happy New Year, Happy New Year, Steve.
