And I was 7 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: down there at the White House when the Iran bombing 8 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: took place and got to be on the South lawn 9 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: watching Trump's departure on Marine one for Bedminster and then. 10 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 2: His return to the next day. 11 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: And obviously the decision was already made when he got 12 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: off the chopper because that mission started seventeen hours before, 13 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: but we didn't know. 14 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 2: What was up. 15 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: Trump looked resolute, determined, did not stop and take any 16 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: questions like he did before at Bedminster or in Jersey 17 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 1: at the airport on his way to Bedminster. And it 18 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: was really just a fascinating situation unfolding at the White House. 19 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: We knew something was up, and then an hour later 20 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 2: we got word there was a bombing. 21 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: But then there was a tight lid on the press 22 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: at six forty pm and we broadcast well into the night, 23 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: I think almost to about midnight. 24 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: But you know, Trump making a speech from. 25 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 1: The East Room in the White House, historic and historic event, 26 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: and you know, not only peace through strength, but taking 27 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: decisive and bold action to end an existential threat not 28 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: just to Israel but the surrounding countries around Israel and 29 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: potentially the United States, because Iran's goal was to take 30 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, ballistic missiles and throw their you know, nuclear 31 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: weaponized missiles at other countries, or even if they just 32 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: wanted it as a deterrent, they've been bad actors. 33 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 2: And if you take all. 34 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: The terrorists attack going back to like Jim Buckley, the 35 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: CIA station chief and I think in Lebanon and Colonel 36 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: Higgins hanging our colonel on TV and the US Navy 37 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: seal dumped on the tarmac in Beirut in the early 38 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: eighties on the TWA flight and blowing up our embassy twice, 39 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,559 Speaker 1: killing two hundred. 40 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 2: And forty one Marines who are in Lebanon. 41 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: And you know the attack on the Senior Center in Argentina, 42 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: I think they killed about eighty five seniors. 43 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: An attack on Jews Cobar Towers. 44 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: Killing nineteen of a serviceman, but a year before did 45 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: it another attack prior that killed five or six American 46 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: troops as well. 47 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 2: These guys are bad actors. You know. 48 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: I am concerned about all the intertwined things involved over 49 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: there in the stability of you know, Iran right now, 50 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of you know, there's Salafes, there's 51 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: the Suni versus the Shia element. You've got Turkey chomping 52 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: at the bit, seething, you know, to make a move here. 53 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: You know, they benefited from the HTS in Syria because 54 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: they're Salafes, and Erdawan is exploiting that and he benefited 55 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: from that. So will there be expanded influence in the region, 56 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: And where does it leave the safety of the Gulf States? 57 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: Right You've got the uae an. 58 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: Incredible economy, like one hundred years of or one hundred 59 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: billion barrels in reserve of oil over there, but they 60 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: also buy like seven or eight billion dollars in goods 61 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: from Iran every year, including petrochemicals and some fossil fuels. 62 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: And other goods. 63 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: And the other nations over there and Cotter where you 64 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: had the International Brotherhood money over there and Salafi terraces 65 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: over there, and then you got the Saudi government you know, 66 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: who was actually attacking Salafi terrorists for US after nine 67 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: to eleven in the Egyptian region and other areas. 68 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 2: They've got their own. 69 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: Intricate battles between al Qaeda, which is basically dedicated to 70 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: taking out the royal family going back to the Wahabas 71 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: in the eighteenth century, going all the way back to 72 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: Timanere in the thirteenth century, and the strict interpretation of 73 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,679 Speaker 1: the Quran. You know, there's a battle going on inside 74 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: the Islamic world. 75 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 2: And then you've got the Dao Bande. 76 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: You know, al Qaeda was means the base, but they 77 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: were like fourteen groups that evolved from that. And then 78 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: you've got the dale Bondi operating on the Indian subcontinent 79 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: in Sri Lanka and other areas. So this is a 80 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: powder keg, and this is something to take lightly. But 81 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: we can't be MUSHes and we can't be delivering palettes 82 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: of cash, two billion dollars in cash on pallets, you know. 83 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: And I'm not an advocate of going to war unless 84 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: you really have to. But you know, Trump made a decision. 85 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: I think it's been effective thus far, and something we 86 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: have to keep a lid on, a cap on to 87 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: make sure if there are any attacks on Alisada Air Base, 88 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: which they attacked after Solomoni was killed by Trump in 89 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. You know, Trump's the only one who's taken action, 90 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: and you know, some of these preemptive strikes, like these 91 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: incredible attacks in Somalia. We had sixteen f eighteen super Horn. 92 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: It's taken off of the deck of the USS Harry 93 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: Truman in the Red Sea over there and going into 94 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: Somalia and taking out Al Shabab and Isis targets, the 95 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: largest navy based bombing in the history of the world, 96 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: authorized under Donald Trump to take out Shabab and Isis 97 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 1: guys hiding in caves and cave networks in Somalia. So 98 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: there's been a string of things that Trump has done 99 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: that you know, don't get much attention and he's not 100 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: getting credit for that may prevent these When people say 101 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: forever wars, they don't want to be entrenched somewhere after 102 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: fifteen or twenty years anymore, and they don't want us 103 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: lives dying or to be maimed. And unexpected circumstances like 104 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: Solomon's brutal IEDs that may have led to the deaths 105 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: of somewhere between six hundred and one thousand US soldiers 106 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: and iraqed these liquid metal forming copper explosive devices that 107 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: melt at like four thousand degrees. The copper, you know, 108 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: tied into these one fifty five millimeters shells that go 109 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: and they split our convoys like butter because the copper 110 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: melts and creates a spear. And I'll never forget my 111 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: time at Chris Levy. I used to run a veterans 112 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 1: group and take wounded soldiers the most grievously wounded soldiers 113 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: from Ward fifty seven in the Army Hospital Walter red 114 00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: in DC took them to Congress to testify about conditions Aghanistan. 115 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: Being out hundreds of miles from the main post, they 116 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 1: couldn't trust the tribal police, tribal leaders or the local police, 117 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: and you know, these guys are stuck out there and 118 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: they were getting maimed and under attack and couldn't trust people. 119 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: So it's really important that we don't go to war 120 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: unless we really have to. And I look at as 121 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: Afghanistan as a success in the sense that we prevented 122 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: many terrorist attacks around the world. I have family and 123 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: the Joint Terrors and test force that was taking off 124 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: the battlefield the most wanted by the FBI after nine 125 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: to eleven and transporting them to Gitmo. 126 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: And we did do a lot of good things and 127 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 2: we didn't lose like soldiers. 128 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: For the last seventeen or nineteen months of the Trump presidency, 129 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: right prior to Trump there, Biden takes. 130 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: Over and just throws everything in the garbage. 131 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: So listen, I can go on forever about this stuff, 132 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: but Trump's in the driver's seat. Get in respect from NATO. 133 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: And these B two missions were so incredible, seven B 134 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: two bombers taking off and dropping these bunker busters on there. 135 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: There were Operation Midnight Hammer was the largest strike package. 136 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: They dropped four one hundred and twenty thousand pounds of GBUS, 137 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,119 Speaker 1: not including the thirty or one thousand pound te LAMB 138 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: Tomahawk missiles on these locations, and I ran that may 139 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: have crippled the Iranian weapons nuclear weapons program at least 140 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: for now, maybe for a number of years. But the 141 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: longest B two Spirit mission prior to that was in 142 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: two thousand and one when B two Spirit bombers from 143 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: the five h ninth bomb wing from Whiteman Air Force 144 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: Base flew three days of missions, like forty five hours 145 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: of missions. 146 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 2: It was like a fifteen thousand mile bombing run en 147 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: route to. 148 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: Over there in Afghanistan. And I got to tell you 149 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: what these pilots are able to pull off is so 150 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: incredible and deserves credit. 151 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 2: You know, the largest strikes. 152 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: Before that, or the longest distance covered by bomber strikes, 153 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: you have to go back to, like I think the 154 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: First Gulf War there was a very long mission there. 155 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: But nineteen eighty two British Vulcan bombers went from the 156 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: Ascension Islands and tacked Port Stanley in the Falklands War, 157 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: and that was about eight thousand miles and within flight refuelings, 158 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: and that was a big accomplishment for the British, for 159 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: the Royal Air Force. But the number of things happening 160 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: under Trump is stunning. We're securing a position in the world. 161 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: I just think that we have to watch things really closely, 162 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: and I don't want things to escalate in Ukraine. We'll 163 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: see where Russia's are going to stand and what they're 164 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: going to do. But they said week that every step 165 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: of Russian soldier takes in Ukraine belongs to the Russians. 166 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 2: So I hope that doesn't want to double. 167 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: Down now because we've protracted this war out and uh, 168 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, it looks like Zelenski might be coming around 169 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: a little bit. 170 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. 171 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: Uh, So we're going to follow all this closely. But 172 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: I've got a great show for you today. I want 173 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: to thank you so much for joining us.

And it's not just because he's Muslim. He's 221 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: a radical leftist, Marxist Muslim. And now you're going to 222 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: have two of the largest cities in the world or 223 00:12:54,760 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: in the Western hemisphere outside of Mexico City, London and. 224 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 2: New York led by a radical Islamist. What do you say. 225 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 4: I don't care that he's a Muslim, honestly, And to 226 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 4: be honest, I don't know much about the mayor of London, 227 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 4: but I could tell you. 228 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 3: You know, I live in three blocks from New York City. 229 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 4: I'm right in Long Island, but right on the on 230 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 4: the county line. 231 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 3: I grew up in New York. 232 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 4: You know, I've been living around here my whole life. 233 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 4: So we're all trying to get take a measure of 234 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 4: this guy. But what they're saying is just downright terrifying. 235 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 4: They're saying he actually compared the October seventh Hamas attack 236 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 4: with the Warsaw ghetto uprising. 237 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 3: I mean, are you kidding me? 238 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 4: What does he think of nine to eleven? Is that 239 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 4: like the Alamo? That maybe the Honaker Roof? I mean, 240 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 4: this guy's if that's true, he's nuts and he's just 241 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 4: playing crazy. He talks about globalized to fada. That's a 242 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 4: call to violence. His policies are bonkers. He's talking about 243 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 4: socialized grocery stores. He's talking about a rent in a 244 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 4: city that already has. 245 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: A housing shortage. 246 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 4: There's tens of thousands of empty apartments in New. 247 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 3: York because landlords can't afford. 248 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 4: To renovate them to make them habitable, because they're not 249 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 4: allowed to charge rent. 250 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 3: He says, let's double down. You can't charge what you're charging. 251 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 4: Now we'll all be homeless the way we're going. And 252 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 4: what's scariest of all is we've been through this. 253 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 3: Okay. 254 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 4: New York elected a radical liberal in the nineteen sixties 255 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 4: named John Lindsay. 256 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 3: Now he was nominally a Republican because in those days, 257 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 3: the progressives were actually Republican, as hard as it is 258 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 3: to believe. 259 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 4: Luckily, you know, Ronald Reagan drew the drove the money 260 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 4: changers out of the Temple and got rid of them. 261 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 4: But he was a radical liberal. He did the same stuff, 262 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 4: and the city burned down. You know, if you can't 263 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 4: charge rent enough to upkeep your building, you abandoned it. 264 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 4: And an abandoned building is a fire waiting to happen. 265 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 4: Under Deblasio, which is you know, two mayors ago, he stopped. 266 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 3: Giving rent in increases. 267 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 4: So we're already like twelve years into this where the 268 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 4: landlords are all starving. In the nineteen sixties, New York 269 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 4: found out that they thought they were cheating their landlords, 270 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 4: they ended up cheating themselves. 271 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 3: We're gonna find out the same thing with this guy. 272 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: John Lindsay ran in a plurality. He won in a 273 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: plurality in a three way race. Now with the four 274 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: or five way race, Zorn could win. It's a very 275 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: real possibility here. And there's like there's I think two 276 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: hundred thousand Muslim voters in the city that would add 277 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: to his base probably. And again I agree with you, 278 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: it's not that he's a Muslim. It's his positions and 279 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: they're very scary. 280 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 2: They're very scary. 281 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: And like I said to you know, I always talk 282 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: about the watermelon where Islam meets Marxism, the red in 283 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: the middle for the communists and the green on the 284 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: outside from us. My friend Rich Higgins wrote a paper 285 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: on that in the National Security Council. God Rest his soul, 286 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: and McMaster didn't like it, but Trump loved it and he. 287 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 2: Got fired for writing that paper. 288 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: All right, So I wanted to talk about your You 289 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: wrote a book eighteen days in October talking about the 290 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: Young Kupole War or the was it the Young Kippot 291 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: War or seventy three? 292 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, yeah, that's so. 293 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: In comparison to this war, which lasted about twelve days. 294 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 2: In a sense, are there any comparisons? 295 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 4: Well, certainly, First of I got to go back to 296 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 4: the watermelon analogy because it's spot on, because I don't 297 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 4: know if you even realize this, but the Palestinians have 298 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 4: made watermelon one of their great symbols because if you 299 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 4: look at the Palestinian flag, it's got the red triangle. 300 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 4: So think of a slice of watermelon, and that's a 301 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 4: that's a big symbol for them, so it's it's pretty apt. 302 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 4: But anyway, I mean, the obvious way that the two 303 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 4: compare is the surprise attack the Egyptians and the Syrians 304 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 4: attack by surprise on the Young Kipoor holiday in nineteen 305 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 4: seventy three caught everyone by surprise. 306 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: This time it was on. 307 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:05,719 Speaker 4: October the seventh, which was another Jewish holiday called Simchatorah, 308 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 4: and they did the same thing this time. They really 309 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 4: it ended very very badly for the Arabs is now 310 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,479 Speaker 4: a parent. The other comparison is, in both instances it 311 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 4: was a Republican president that rescued Israel, and in both instances, 312 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 4: I have to tell you. 313 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 3: I shuddered to think of what. 314 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 4: Would have happened if the Democrat had won the election. 315 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 4: George McGovern, who ran, of course against Nixon in seventy two, 316 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 4: was a. 317 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 3: Very unabashed liberal. 318 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 4: He was not very fond of Israel, and that was 319 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 4: against the stream in those days. In those days the 320 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 4: Democrats were very pro Israel. He stood out the other way. 321 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 4: And I don't tell you what Kamala was all about. 322 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 4: I mean, Kamala basically said during the while she was 323 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 4: vice president, in a speech on July twenty fifth, twenty 324 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 4: twenty four that if she won the election, Israel was 325 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 4: going to lose that war. 326 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 3: She was going to put a stop to it. So 327 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 3: I guess in both instances Israel got lucky that way. 328 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, going back to the Sixth Day War and in 329 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty seventy is Rael, he's knocked out like a 330 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: third of the Egyptian air force for the even took off, 331 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: and their air campaign in seventy three was like a 332 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: forty six hour battle. I was unprecedented right for its time. 333 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about George mcgovernal quick, My old 334 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 1: boss was a Republican leader here in New York in 335 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: Suffolk County, and he worked alongside Nickson. He bought an 336 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: eighty one thousand vote majority to suff County, one of 337 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: the highest in the nation next to Orange County, California. 338 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 2: But he always he gave me this article. 339 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 1: That George McGovern wrote called run your business for your 340 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: run for office, because he was a socialist, right but 341 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: in the nineties he tried to build a hotel in 342 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: Connecticut as a private builder, and he foiled because of 343 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: the bureaucracy, and he wrote an article called run your 344 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: business before you run for government or run for office. 345 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 2: I thought that was a lesson in life for him. 346 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 4: It's true, and what he should have written was run 347 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 4: your business the way Ronald Reagan ran government, and then 348 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 4: he might have actually succeeded. But yeah, I mean that's 349 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 4: absolutely the case. You know, politics were very different in 350 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 4: those days. 351 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 3: Lyndon Johnson was. 352 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 4: Until Donald Trump, I would have said, the most friendly 353 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 4: president Israel ever had. 354 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: He was outstanding, he was great. 355 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 4: And in those days, you know, if you were a Democrat, 356 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 4: it was fine to be pro Israel. But unfortunately we're 357 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 4: in another time and in our time, too many Democrats 358 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 4: I think are just too juiced up on the issue 359 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 4: of race. 360 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 3: And that's really what this boils down. To ask yourself 361 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 3: a simple question. 362 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 4: You know, Biden budgeted billions of dollars for the Palestinians after. 363 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 3: The October seven attack. Now, he would have said it 364 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 3: was for the innocent civilians. 365 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 4: Okay, I get that, But try to imagine if the 366 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 4: Palestinians were white supremacists who attacked Israel, who murdered twelve 367 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 4: hundred people, who raped women, who said Jews aer apes 368 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 4: and pigs, and the opinion poll showed complete support as 369 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 4: it did in Gaza. Do you really think Biden would 370 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 4: have given billions of dollars, you know, to white supremacists 371 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 4: who said those things. Of course he wouldn't. But here 372 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 4: we are and now people of color. So now the 373 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 4: Democrats aren't so sure. And this is really the tide 374 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 4: that we're swimming against. And you know, you look at 375 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 4: Azora Mundani and co opting I can't even say Jewish 376 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 4: history and applying it to the October seven attack. 377 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 3: I mean, it's utterly bizarre. 378 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was on the South Lawn last week waiting 379 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: for Trump's arrival on Marine one as the White House 380 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: correspondent for Real America's Voice News, filling in for Brian Glenn, 381 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: who's doing a great. 382 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 2: Job down there. 383 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 1: And Trump came right off the helicopter, right into the 384 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: White House to the Oval Office for a national security meeting, 385 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: and then they put a lid on everything. But about 386 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: an hour later after we landed, they announced that they bombed, 387 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: you know, and that mission started seventeen hours earlier. But 388 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: Trump kept a good lid on that. But it was 389 00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: such an incredible evening in there. Now you predicted that, 390 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: you know, peace through strength would work for Trump but 391 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: you also have been an Africa. 392 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 2: I was worried about spillover. 393 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: I was worried about attacks on Cotter and Alisata air Base, 394 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 1: but that really hasn't panned out yet, right. 395 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 3: It most definitely is not. 396 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 4: And those of us who observed this a lot thought 397 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 4: it played out exactly the way people thought. 398 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 3: I mean, once in a while the analysts actually get 399 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 3: it right. 400 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 4: This is what the ir audience did back when Trump 401 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 4: took out Cossum Sulimani. They fired some rockets, it was choreographed. 402 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 4: A few Americans suffered some traumatic brain injury on not 403 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 4: minimizing that. But the fact of the matter is it 404 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 4: was a tiny fraction of what people expected. And I 405 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 4: want to make one other really important point. What Donald 406 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 4: Trump did you know? And I predicted he was going 407 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 4: to do it. I was sweating, And I'll tell you why. 408 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 4: There was an Axios pole on Friday. Of course, the 409 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 4: American attack was Saturday night. There was an Axios pole 410 00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 4: the day before, and it only showed sixteen percent of 411 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 4: Americans supporting the strike on Iran. So Donald Trump ordered 412 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 4: that strike frankly without the American people behind him. And I, 413 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 4: you know, I'm a bit of a history above. I 414 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 4: was kind of poking around trying to find an example 415 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 4: of a leader going to war when that war would 416 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 4: have only enjoyed sixteen percent. 417 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 3: Of the polls. I couldn't find one. But Trump did it. 418 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 4: And now, of course, like eighty percent of Americans say, yeah, 419 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 4: it was the right thing to do. 420 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 3: It was a great decision. 421 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 4: So you know, that's what leadership is all about, and 422 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,919 Speaker 4: that's what leadership through strength is all about. 423 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 3: And we're all experiencing the benefit. 424 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 4: Now Iran has stood down, the nuclear program is finally 425 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 4: finally gone. The world is a much much safer place, 426 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 4: and it's a safer place for America. 427 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 3: He put America first. 428 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 1: Incredible events, incredible times that we're living in, all right, 429 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: So we got to go. But before we do, tell 430 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: our viewers where they can buy American into fodder and 431 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: some of your other stuff, and where can they follow 432 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: you because you have so much insight. 433 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 4: So American into Fada Unfortunately largely on Amazon, it's in 434 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 4: some bookstores. I've been a little disappointed at the rollout 435 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 4: in that sense, although eighteen days in October actually thankfully 436 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 4: did quite well. 437 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 3: I'm going to toot my hornier and tell you. 438 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 4: The CIA has a publication and they described it as 439 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 4: a quote masterpiece. I was actually a little floored by that. 440 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 4: The Financial Times picked it as one of the best 441 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 4: books of the year. You can get that at Barnes 442 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 4: and Noble American into Fodha. I'm afraid you got to 443 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 4: go out on Amazon. But we've gotten a terrific response 444 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 4: so far. The book is doing really well and we've 445 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 4: gotten some great feedback. 446 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 3: So look for it. 447 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 2: Thank you very much, and social media.

Trump making bold moves, showing leadership, that's 458 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: for sure. 459 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 2: Get in respect at a NATO. 460 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: While the media was trying to say, oh, you know 461 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: they're calling you daddy. 462 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 2: You know all this what are you doing?

Correct, that's correct, And 481 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: you know Trump under a lot of pressure. It's got 482 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: to be extraordinary, but he plans on limiting sending classified 483 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: information to Congress after this intel assessment on Iran damage 484 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,239 Speaker 1: was leaked? Is this unprecedented? And tell us about your 485 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: book and how it compares to your experiences. 486 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 6: Absolutely, well, this is exactly where the director, the Director 487 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 6: of National Intelligence needs to provide who has a requirement 488 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 6: to know this information. So just because someone has a 489 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 6: top secret clearance as I did in the Marines and 490 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 6: as an intelligence official afterwards after retiring from the Marine Corps, 491 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 6: you may have a top secret security clearance, you may 492 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,479 Speaker 6: have access to special access programs, but if you do 493 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 6: not have the need to know specific programs, you don't 494 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 6: have the right to know that. And as you mentioned, 495 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 6: there was one gentleman who was in the Special Operations 496 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 6: Task Force that I was a commander of. He had 497 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 6: He didn't spill the information, he didn't share the information 498 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 6: or leak it, but he had classified information on a 499 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 6: government unclassified computer. Now that computer was not plugged in 500 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 6: any type of Internet source where it was shared. But 501 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 6: he created briefs and he was The bottom line is 502 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 6: he built briefs on a classified computer for his convenience 503 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 6: because it was faster for them to do that on 504 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 6: an unclassified computer and put a thumb drive in and 505 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 6: put it into a and it was just big no, no, 506 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 6: big no no. So everyone who signs who has a 507 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 6: classified clearance, whether it's secret or top secret or beyond that. 508 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 6: With polygraph and special access programs. You signed documents that 509 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 6: say it's critical to grave if you ever divulge any 510 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 6: of this information, which is different than mishandling it, you 511 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 6: can you know, oops, I oh, I forgot, you know, 512 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 6: and not be wittingly. You know, those are still punishable. 513 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 6: And in this gentleman case, in the task force that 514 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 6: I commanded, he was separated from the United States Marine 515 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 6: Corps and he was an officer. So this, this does happen, 516 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 6: but it seems strange that people who are sharing information 517 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 6: are spilling it intentionally in the intelligence community and with 518 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 6: members of Congress, they're not held account. This is what 519 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 6: we need to correct. 520 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and in such a politically charged environment, in your situation, 521 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 1: you commanded a special operations task force in combat, right, 522 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 1: and you were ambushed by the Tally ban and you 523 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,640 Speaker 1: would drag through the mud under law fair and other 524 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 1: types of things. 525 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 2: How does that relate to classified information? 526 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 3: Well, very similar. And I'm going to add a different. 527 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 6: Subject, but what the Secretary of Defense and the President 528 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 6: were discussing last night, where you have highly trained, skilled warriors, 529 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 6: in our case special operators fighting on the ground against 530 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 6: an enemy, and in this case, what occurred this last 531 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 6: week or weekend. These were the most highly trained aviators 532 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 6: doing a you know, a day and a half long 533 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 6: mission in the air, precise coordinators dropping precision guiding munitions 534 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 6: on target. And now you have people downplaying American citizens. 535 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 6: You have people doing that on social media, you have 536 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 6: members of Congress, you have members of media, and then 537 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 6: some somebody says they're in the intelligence community and they're 538 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 6: spilling information that the public doesn't have a right to 539 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 6: know that. So just like this administration, they have a 540 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 6: right to go out and track down who had access 541 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 6: to that information, where that was shared, put subpoenas on 542 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 6: people who in the media who said that, Okay, this 543 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 6: person gave this to me, you cannot. I mean that 544 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 6: is national security information that is not sharable with people 545 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 6: without that clearance, and definitely not in the media. But 546 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 6: this did, this type of lawfare did happen to us. 547 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 6: We were going after the n Emmy. We were shot at, 548 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 6: blown up, shot out on multiple sides, sniper fire, trapped 549 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 6: in this kill zone. We killed the enemy at nine 550 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 6: o'clock in the morning, point blank, and then this started, 551 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 6: you know, within twenty minutes. This was out on the 552 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 6: BBC first and then the New York Times Washington Post 553 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 6: for twelve years we got assassinated. 554 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 3: Even after we went. 555 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 6: Through the longest courtroom trial where we were exonerated. There 556 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 6: are some people who wanted to lay the blame on, 557 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 6: particularly myself and the unit that I commanded, so they 558 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 6: would do these dry buys in the media. So even 559 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 6: I served for seven more years and even after the 560 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 6: day I retired, they hit me that day and several 561 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 6: other times that year, and it continued on and it's 562 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 6: very damaging, like the President's experiencing with this professional destruction. 563 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: But you turned it the other way and you were 564 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: saying that you know, because you're targeted like Trump, you 565 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: never backed down. Tell us about that refusal to fail 566 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: and fighting back. 567 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 6: Yes, So some people who have voted for people that 568 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 6: they respect, and in my case, these are military officers, 569 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 6: very senior general officers who in America we have a 570 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 6: lot of patriotism, but it's just like we have in 571 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 6: the military as trust but verify if you do something 572 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 6: where you're dragging your own members of the Marine Corps, 573 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,959 Speaker 6: the frontline foot soldiers, and you're destroying them, you need 574 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 6: to be held accountable. 575 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 3: That that needs to be exposed. 576 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 6: So that's that's what took me eleven years to get 577 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 6: this information declassified, which what I just described to you, David, 578 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,479 Speaker 6: that's a garden variety gun battle. This is not Jason 579 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 6: Bourne's knock list or the locations of the submarines at sea. 580 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 6: This is you know, day one tactics of Taliban attacking marines. 581 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 6: So there was no need to have this procedure that 582 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 6: they use in the courtroom where for three and a 583 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 6: half weeks longest courtroom trial Marine Corps history, they would 584 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 6: move the media out of the court. Media was allowed 585 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,479 Speaker 6: in there, but every time there was a defense witness 586 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 6: with exculptory information which they knew, the media would get 587 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 6: escorted out. So you got one side of the media. 588 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 6: So we were exonered, but the label in the press. 589 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 6: That continued for twelve years until January two, twenty nineteen, 590 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 6: the day after General Maddis was fired by President Trump 591 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 6: as his secretary of Defense. Well six months actually seven 592 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 6: months prior to that. In May twenty eighteen, a board 593 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 6: convened in the Pentagon and they fully exonerated us. But 594 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 6: they sat on their hands because not only was General 595 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 6: Madison Secretary of Defense in twenty eighteen. But he was 596 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 6: a convening authority in our case in two thousand and seven, 597 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 6: so he was the puppeteer. He was the geppetto pulling 598 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 6: all this strings, and he did not want. 599 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 3: But we were exonerated. 600 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 6: Thank god for this female civilian general counsel with the 601 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 6: Department of the Navy.

And here to 678 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 1: discuss that for the mayoral race is author Donald Wilkie. 679 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: He's the author of Freedom Revealed, a simple, elegant system. 680 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 5: Welcome to the show, Thanks for having me pleasure to 681 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 5: be here. 682 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's great to have you. 683 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: And you know, I could see the campaign slogan now 684 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:15,879 Speaker 1: don't mess with the zo ran right in New York City, Mom, 685 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: Donnie basically a radical Marxist, the watermelon where Islam meets 686 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: the Marxist culture. Green on the outside for Islam, red 687 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: in the middle for socialism, Marxism and communism. 688 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 8: What do you say, well, socialism doesn't work. But the 689 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 8: problem is most people never ask the question why doesn't 690 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,280 Speaker 8: it work? And that's what I answer in my book. 691 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 8: And the real simple answer, if you will allow me, sure, 692 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 8: is that everybody thinks socialism is an economic system, but 693 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 8: in reality, it's a government system. And what it is 694 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 8: is the government distorting the marketplace. 695 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 5: And the reason the marketplace and. 696 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 8: Government are different is because government is singular, so there's 697 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 8: no competition. The marketplace has a lot of competition. One's 698 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 8: a competitive system, one's a non competitive system, and that 699 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 8: makes all the difference. 700 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: Right, So we have this incredible mayor's race going on. 701 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 1: I think part of the reason why I'm Donnie won 702 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: the primary was a protest vote against Cuomo in a way. 703 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 1: And you know, I would take Curtis over anybody. I 704 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 1: would even take Adams over anybody besides Curtis, because he's 705 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 1: kind of getting a message. 706 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 2: He got away with murder, maybe with. 707 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 1: You know, his corrupt police commissioner under him, the Turkish deal. 708 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: Trump not pursuing you know, the indictments and all that 709 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: other stuff. So but the new police commission is doing 710 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: a better job in New York City. 711 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 2: Jessica tish Now. 712 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 1: Shootings and murders down, Rape still let twenty two percent, 713 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 1: felony assaults still at twenty five your highs. The Blasio 714 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 1: numbers misdemeanor assaults up thirty something thousand. New York has 715 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: assaulted in the streets. But the business climate in New 716 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:12,399 Speaker 1: York City is awful. There's no buzz anymore. Curtis took 717 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: a picture last year of Third Avenue at ten in 718 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: the morning. There's no traffic, you know, there's not really 719 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: a lot going on. Congestion pricings killed it the economy. 720 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: COVID forty percent of the office building is still empty, 721 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: so or only forty percent of the building still occupied 722 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 1: for office spase since COVID tell us what is the 723 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: damage that having a socialist as a mayor is going 724 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: to do to New York If that happens. 725 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 5: Well, he's just going to distort the marketplace further. 726 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,239 Speaker 8: The only way you eliminate waste is through competition, and 727 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 8: in socialism there is no competition. The way I always 728 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 8: win the socialist argument as I ask a socialist how 729 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 8: do you eliminate waste? And they never have an answer. 730 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 8: So you have a socialist system. You let the government 731 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 8: run grocery stores he's talking about, and you're just going. 732 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 5: To compound it. 733 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 8: Why did they have to wait in the Soviet Union 734 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,439 Speaker 8: for hours at a time to get a chunk of meat, 735 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 8: hair sticking out of it? 736 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 2: You know, I saw the bread lines. I saw the 737 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 2: breadlines in Moscow in eighty six. I saw them. 738 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 5: Well, that's how it works. I mean you have waste. 739 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 8: Now, what happens in the private sector when you have competition, Hey, 740 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 8: people won't go there, and what happens to your company? 741 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,240 Speaker 8: You go out of business. Well, what happens to government 742 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:29,240 Speaker 8: if nothing works? 743 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 4: Right? 744 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 5: They stay there and they can they double down on 745 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 5: what they're doing. So that's the whole problem. 746 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: So, Ma'mdonnie's economic platform has some crazy things and it 747 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: can you go over some of his things like rent 748 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 1: stabilization and getting rid of like privately owned convenience stores. 749 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 2: What's this guy doing? 750 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 8: Well, I just heard a little bit about his marketplace, 751 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 8: I mean grocery store proposition. And the buildings aren't going 752 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 8: to pay rent, they're not going to pay taxes, So 753 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 8: that's going to cut your costs and et cetera, et cetera, 754 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 8: et cetera. We're not going to make a profit, so 755 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 8: that's going to cut your costs. What he never says, 756 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 8: what they never talk about, is the waste that government 757 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 8: has to create. A non competitive system has to create waste. 758 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,439 Speaker 8: You can't eliminate it, and that's always way worse than 759 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 8: any savings you might talk about. And again, anytime you 760 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 8: look at a socialist system, they're always dirt poor and 761 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 8: nobody understands why. But it's just simply a lack of competition. 762 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:36,720 Speaker 8: They're not a marketplace system, they're a government system. 763 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. 764 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: You know, New York City might be one of the 765 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 1: safest large cities in the country per capita, but I 766 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: will tell you that it's probably the filthiest and the rodents, 767 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 1: the leaks, the mold right, the heating breakdowns. These landlords, 768 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 1: you know, they can't survive if the government wants to 769 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: take their property or give them, you know, peanuts in 770 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 1: New York City's used, the free market, high rents, Fifth Avenue, Downtown, 771 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,719 Speaker 1: all that stuff. We're looking at the middle class being 772 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 1: wiped out. 773 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly. 774 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 8: Now I should tell you that I'm from Detroit, and 775 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 8: Detroit went broke, as you know, and. 776 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 5: It saw everything you're talking about. Now. A lot sooner 777 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:31,479 Speaker 5: than New York has. 778 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,280 Speaker 8: And that's exactly what happened to Detroit, the entire industrial base. 779 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 8: Detroit was the greatest industrial city in the country in 780 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 8: the fifties sixties, and by nineteen eighty, the entire industrial 781 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 8: base had left it. There was nothing left. There is 782 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,800 Speaker 8: no tax revenue for the government. And today in Detroit, 783 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 8: believe it or not, there's vast open areas, acres and 784 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 8: acres open field where they've just torn everything down. Now, 785 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 8: we were never as big New York, and that's a difference, 786 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 8: but there was no law. Yeah, he reigned in Detroit, 787 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 8: and it looks like it's coming to New York. 788 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: I worked alongside the Juliani administration representing private developers, and 789 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: I am a first hand witness and a participant to 790 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,959 Speaker 1: Giuliani New York City Housing Partnership taking the Jack Kemp 791 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: enterprise zones, giving people maybe a grant through like the 792 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 1: State Sunny May Lending program, which was a great program 793 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: first time buyers. It would take some money off the 794 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,799 Speaker 1: sale price of a new home. They would give the 795 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: land to the builders if it was city owned or 796 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,359 Speaker 1: tax condemned or in rem lots, and they were able 797 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: to build these three story town homes. You know that 798 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 1: would go for not a lot of money, But you 799 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: gave title to people. They cleaned up the streets, they 800 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 1: kicked out the drug dealers. I watched the firsthand at 801 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,439 Speaker 1: Bushwick and the Bronx. That's why we had Williamsburg today 802 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,880 Speaker 1: and the Park's Slope revival and all that other stuff. 803 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: But his anchor revitalization program, bringing back and attracting retail 804 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 1: businesses is guaranteeing with federal seed money, guarantees for Bilders 805 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 1: to take risks in bad areas Brooklyn Avenue, Brooklyn, Coney Island, 806 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: Mermaid Avenue, Harlem, one twenty fifth Street, one sixteenth in Lenox. 807 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 1: Who is going to do that for New York City? 808 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 3: I don't know. 809 00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 5: But you made a great point. Unless a person has 810 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 5: skin in the game, what do they care? 811 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, they. 812 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 5: Have to have an investment. 813 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,320 Speaker 8: And if they don't have an investment, they got nothing 814 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,800 Speaker 8: to lose. So that is another problem with socialism. You 815 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 8: don't have people with an investment, right, And Giuliani did 816 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 8: a terrific job in New York, almost. 817 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,879 Speaker 5: A miracle job, but it was predictable. 818 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 8: You have to let the marketplace work and prosperity is 819 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 8: created when waste is eliminated. 820 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 5: From the marketplace. 821 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 1: It's quite simple, right, So, Okay, we have this really 822 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: competitive mayoral race, and if there's a four or five 823 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 1: waist split, Curtis I only got twenty eight percent last 824 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: general election. 825 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 2: He only needs thirty to. 826 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: Thirty five percent to win in a plurality like John 827 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 1: Lindsay did in nineteen sixty nine. 828 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:10,439 Speaker 2: He won in a three way race. 829 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: If Cuomo jumps back in and runs and mem Donnie 830 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: is the Democratic candidate, and then you have working families running, 831 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,240 Speaker 1: this could be and then you might have Adam staying 832 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: in as independent, could be a path for Curtis Lee 833 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 1: or what do you say? 834 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 8: It'd be very nice. I mean, I like Curtis. I 835 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 8: like the things he's done. What I don't know is 836 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 8: the money behind Mondanmi. He's obviously well finded. Somebody is 837 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 8: propping him up. I don't know how deep the pockets are, 838 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:41,719 Speaker 8: And that's the question I think we should know. 839 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I guess it's also a question of where 840 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 1: will Bloomberg's money go. You know, he gave it to Cuomo, 841 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: and Cuomo could stay in. 842 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 2: He's not out. You know, but I don't know. The 843 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,479 Speaker 2: whole thing's kind of a disaster. Here. Tell us about 844 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 2: your book. 845 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,439 Speaker 8: Well, well, it's the first time freedom has been looked 846 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 8: at as a mechanical system as opposed to a philosophy. 847 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 8: And I'll get to the heart of it. I've talked 848 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 8: about it basically a little bit already. But I looked 849 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,240 Speaker 8: at nature and I asked myself, how does nature work? 850 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 8: And one of the statements all environmentalists have is there's 851 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 8: no waste in nature. Well, the question is what drives 852 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 8: waste out of nature? And the obvious answer is competition. 853 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 8: Competition eliminates waste. So the market, the natural world is 854 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 8: extremely competitive. And the other part of the foundation of 855 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,839 Speaker 8: nature is everything in nature moves to ease. That's why 856 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 8: we have signs at national parks that say do not 857 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 8: feed the animals. So you take three simple concepts and 858 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 8: apply them to everything, and they explain everything, how prosperity 859 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 8: is created, why welfare never works, why socialism never works. 860 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 8: And it's quite astounding when you take just these three 861 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 8: simple concepts, almost like the three basic colors, and put 862 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 8: them together in different ways and you can predict outcomes. 863 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 1: Sure, tell our viewers Where can they get your book? 864 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 1: And where can they follow you? 865 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 5: Sub Stack you can follow me there. 866 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 8: I've got videos on YouTube too, Freedom revealed dot net 867 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 8: and of course Amazon, the big giant in the in 868 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:25,760 Speaker 8: the house. 869 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, everybody. 870 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 1: Donald Wilkie, author of Freedom revealed the Simple Elegant System, 871 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining us on everybody.
