Let me just say this, 4 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: I agree with what Senator Lindsey Graham said, shut up. 5 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: That's what he said to him. I think they should 6 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: just shut up because you can't build a wall high 7 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: enough to keep out a vaccine. The vaccine can stop 8 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,319 Speaker 1: the spread of these diseases. Rashley decided to invade a 9 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: smaller country called Ukraine, so basically that's wrong. Freedom is 10 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: back in style. Welcome to the Revolution. I'm coming to 11 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: your city, going to play. I get toms and seening 12 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: you a conscious cell Sean Show, I'm the scenes, information 13 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America. 14 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,839 Speaker 1: This is a special edition of The Sean Hannity Show, 15 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: America Trapped Behind Enemy Lines, Day number two oh five. 16 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: Day two oh five. Day were two eighteen since Joey 17 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: promised he wouldn't stab Americans in the back, he did 18 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: and abandon them, And of course he's turned the page 19 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: and nobody ever talks about them, and nobody ever mentions them. Well, 20 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure that most of you, if not all, of 21 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: you have been reading about the dramatic increase one hundred 22 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: and forty dollars a barrel of oil. We have some 23 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: oil traders now they're actually believing the ongoing Russia Ukraine 24 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: war and its international fall oll could drive up prices. 25 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: This month average price of gasoline is now it's its 26 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: highest number in over a decade, well over four bucks 27 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: a gallon. And then depending on what state you live, 28 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: and then you, of course you have your state tax 29 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: and your local tax, and if you're in New York 30 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: your city tax. Everyone gets a piece. And I'll see 31 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: places in New York City, what five dollars a gallon 32 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: for gasoline and I'm paying well over four four fifty 33 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: a gallon? Uh, what was it during trying to remember 34 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: paying two dollars. I mean he even said at one point, 35 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna have you want to pay five six seven 36 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: dollars a barrel for oil. That's that's what's gonna happen. 37 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: So as bad as all of that is, the Biden 38 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: administration's response to it is even worse. The Dow has 39 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: been on a dive pretty much all day with the 40 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: increase in the price of oil because the increase well look, 41 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: it impacts every single thing we do. In every single 42 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,399 Speaker 1: thing we buy. It cost more to philip your tank, 43 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 1: he'd cool your home, and every product you're buying every 44 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: store costs more to get it there, and that cost 45 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: gets passed onto you. You know, this is it's going 46 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: to have an impact on every aspect of this economy. 47 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: It's the lowest it's the highest price for gasoline since 48 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. You know, they look at it. 49 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: Seven dollars a gallon for gasoline at one station in 50 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: Los Angeles is pretty close to that mark. Food prices, 51 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: by the way, have gone up a whopping twenty point 52 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: seven percent year to year, and that's going to hit 53 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: a record high coming up this month. US gas prices 54 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: are rising at the fastest pace ever, according to Triple 55 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: A Elon Musk. He makes his business building electric cars. 56 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: I've never drove drove a Tesla. Everyone I know that 57 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: has one, and they love it. They love that car. 58 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: But he's a guy that's a realist, and he actually 59 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: tweeted out, you know, extra times call for extraordinary measures. 60 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: We need to dramatically increase our energy oil and gas 61 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: natural gas production. At least he's smart enough to understand 62 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't help his business, but he's smart enough to 63 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: know that it's imperative for the entire economy and the 64 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: light blood of our economy. But the worst part of 65 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: all of this is not this. You know, we have 66 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: articles now that Biden may travel to Saudi Arabia and 67 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: a quest for oil. That's the headline foxnews dot Com. 68 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: Now it's not just Saudi Arabia. Joe Biden has before 69 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: this invasion by Russia of Ukraine, he's been asking the 70 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: Russians to increase production. They've been saying no. Yet not happening. 71 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: He's been asking OPEC nations to increase production. The answers 72 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: come back every single time. No. By the way, there's 73 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: no incentive for them. You know, if you're producing a 74 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: barrel of oil at these prices, you're just raking in 75 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: billions and billions of dollars every day, especially with the 76 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: amount of money that energy imports by Western nations and 77 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 1: the United States. We're still importing oil from Russia today. 78 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: Then Pete Buddha, judge, let the cat out of the bag. 79 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: It turns out to be true that during as these 80 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: ongoing negotiations with Iran, where they would get tens of 81 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: billions of dollars in frozen assets given to them. In 82 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: other words, here we go again. Cargo planes filled with cash, gold, 83 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: other currency will land on the tarmac and the Mullahs 84 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: will be rich again. But as part of the deal, 85 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: the negotiating with Iran to import energy oil from Iran, 86 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: they up and have pretty vast resources themselves. We really 87 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: want to deal with the country that says death to Israel, 88 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: death to America, burning American plagues and burning you know, 89 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: the US flag, you know, And I guarantee you this 90 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: deal is going to be far worse than even the 91 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: Obama Biden deal with Iran. They just never learn their lesson. 92 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: So we're gonna beg all of these countries OPEC countries, 93 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: many of whom hate us. We're gonna beg the Iranians 94 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: that we no hate us. As even reports out that 95 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: we're going to go to Venezuela, that's and get oil 96 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: from the thug dictator that we've been trying to get 97 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: rid of there. Now, this is madness, especially when you 98 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 1: factor in this main, main part of this argument, and 99 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: that is we have the resources here to produce all 100 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: of the oil, all of the gas, all of the 101 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: coal that we would ever need will well over a 102 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: hundred years, some estimates as high as two hundred plus years. 103 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: And we can simultaneously ratchet up production and we could 104 00:06:55,240 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 1: be providing our allies with their necessary energy needs. And 105 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: then we won't have to make deals with Venezuela. Then 106 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: we won't have to have talks with the Iranians. Then 107 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: we won't have to be rejected yet again by OPEC 108 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: and OPEC nations. We'll be energy independent. And I've said 109 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: it before, it's good for national security. Is whatever in 110 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: the Straits of Hormuz where thirty to forty percent of 111 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: the world's oil passes through narrow straits, and the Iranians 112 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: love to take tankers hostage and mess with the tankers 113 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: that are full of oil there, we don't have to 114 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: worry about these OPEC countries. We won't be making them 115 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: rich again. We're not going to have help out the 116 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: thug dictatorship in Venezuela, the Iranian mullas, we're not going 117 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: to help out, and Vladimir Putin, we're going to choke 118 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: off the moneys that he desperately needs to fund this 119 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: war that he's started. Why would we ever do that, 120 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: then we got the economic side of it. We're at 121 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: a forty year high of inflation. If you increase the 122 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: world supply, it's simple basic economics. You increase supply and 123 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: demand remains constant, then it's going to drive down the 124 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: price and drive it down significantly. Instead of looking at 125 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: five six seven dollars a gallon for gasoline, we'll go 126 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: back to two dollars a gallon for gasoline. That'll be 127 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: like a tax cut. Right now. The people that are 128 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: hurting the most negatively impacted by Joe's ridiculous energy dependence 129 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: policies are the poor in the middle class. If you 130 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: go grocery shopping, or if you go to home depot 131 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: or you go to Low's, you see the dramatic price increases. 132 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: That's because it costs more to ship every item of 133 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: every store we go to. It's not too hard to 134 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: figure this out anyway. So this is now the direction. 135 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: So my question is, well, why if you're going to 136 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: negotiate with Iran, Saudi Arabia, OPEC Nations, Venezuela, why don't 137 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: you just negotiate with the governor of Texas and the 138 00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: governor of Oklahoma and all the other energy producing governors 139 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: in the country. And why don't you go to Alaska 140 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: and reopen the Anoir, And why don't you allow our 141 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: energy producers in this country, our energy companies, many of 142 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: whom already pulled out of Russia. They're not going to 143 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: be a part of this. BP pulled out, a number 144 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: of companies, Shell Oil, I believe, pulled out. They're not 145 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: having anything to do with Russia, and so give them. 146 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: Why don't we go back to energy dependence? Now, think 147 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 1: of what it does. Lowers implation, lowers the cost of 148 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: the lifeblood of our economy. It helps the poor in 149 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: the middle class the most, because they're disproportionately negatively impacted 150 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: the worst right now. It helps every business in this country. 151 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: It creates high paying career jobs in this country. It 152 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: helps out our Western European allies. Once we become a 153 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: net exporter and we can find the quickest, cheapest ways 154 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: to get it to our allies to wean them off 155 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: their dependence on Russia. I mean, there's it's win win, win, win, win, 156 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: win win all the way across the board. And that's 157 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: the one thing. The mysterious reluctant some resistance of Democrats 158 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: now it's not complicated. Why Because Joe Biden has He's 159 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: made a decision here and he'd rather that Americans pay 160 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: more for everything that they buy, pay more at the pump, 161 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: pay more to heat and cool your homes. He's decided 162 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: that he would rather go to enemy countries of America 163 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: and do deals with them, which is so bad for 164 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: our national security, rather then do the one smart thing 165 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: and take on these climate alarmist cultists that represent New 166 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: Green Deal Democratic Socialist Party and say nope, for national 167 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 1: security reasons and economic security reasons, we are now lifting 168 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: all restrictions on exploration and extraction and energy production in America, 169 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: and we're asking every oil producing energy producing company in 170 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: America to go at their highest, fastest level possible so 171 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: that we'll achieve energy independence and be able to help 172 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 1: out our allies. That's the answer I told you that 173 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: should have been in his speech, but it wasn't. At 174 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: the State of the Union, you know, crude oil surged 175 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: twenty percent today to near one hundred and forty dollars 176 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: a barrel for the first time since oh eight. Average 177 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: prices now over four dollars a gallon for the first 178 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: time since you got it two thousand and eight, energy 179 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: market traders are betting on two hundred dollars a barrel. Now, 180 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: if you ask where the American people are, seventy percent, 181 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: according to Rasmussen, favor increasing US oil and gas production. 182 00:11:55,080 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: Elon Musk's statement, and obviously he's acknowledging the would negatively 183 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 1: impact his company, Tesla, But the sustainable energy solutions cannot 184 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: react instantaneously to make up for Russian oil and gas exports. 185 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: And he said, hate to say it, but we need 186 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: to increase oil and gas output immediately. Extraordinary times demand 187 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: extraordinary measures. Good for him. I admire that House Democrats. 188 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: What do they do? They block the bill to reopen 189 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: the Keystone XEL pipeline. Biden officials of pressured Democrats on 190 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: the Russian oil band they don't want to ban importing 191 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: oil from Putin's Russia. Why wouldn't that? Why would they 192 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: not want Why wouldn't they see the wisdom in stopping 193 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: to fund Putin's territorial ambitions? Axios Biden's advisors weigh Saudi 194 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: Arabia trip for more oil. How embarrassing is this big 195 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: in the Saudi You know, stupid? They must think we 196 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: are they know we have vast resources of oil and gas. 197 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: They know we can be energy independent. They've got to 198 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: be looking at us and thinking you're the dumbest people 199 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: on Earth, that you're coming to us begging us to 200 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: produce more energy when you can be producing your own energy. 201 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: And then, for all the environmental extremists, if you are 202 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 1: once of those people, please call the program and explain 203 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: to me how Mother Earth is impacted. It doesn't matter 204 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: if you're importing the oil from Venezuela or OPAC, or 205 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia or Iran or Russia, or you're just drove 206 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: full oil in the US. Explain to me what's the 207 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: difference in terms of the impact on Mother Earth, because 208 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: I would imagine it's equally the same, although I think 209 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: we do it in a cleaner way than they do, 210 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: which would be good. I can't believe you US officials 211 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: are meeting with the regime in Venezuela to discuss oil 212 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: exports and replacing Russia's. Now some of these countries might 213 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: do if a putin might also, you know, put the 214 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: screws to them to prevent it. Also, I love what 215 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: Joe Mansion said, you know, he said all options need 216 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: to remain on the table, meaning we got to become 217 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: energy and dependent. And he also said on the no 218 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: fly zone, we should take nothing off the table. He's 219 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: right on that front too. So I have some good news. 220 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: I think the Ukrainian resistance and the Ukrainian Army has 221 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: done better than I predicted they will. I'm just not 222 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: willing to get to the point where some people are thinking, 223 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: you know this this resistance I sense, and this resistance 224 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: might be able to push Putin back. They might have 225 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: some victories under their belt, but I would expect scorched 226 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: earth and from Vladimir Putin if that happens. He's already 227 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: killing men, women and children. He's now he called for 228 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: a phony ceasefire to allow civilians to get out of 229 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: the country and then bomb the living Adam schiff of 230 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: out of them. And we have the videos, and we 231 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: have the still pictures see killing children and women and men. 232 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: There's only one thing that gives me a minor hope 233 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: that there might be an out here where Putin could 234 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: say face and this unnecessary war would end. There was 235 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: a Russian spokesperson that talked about a ceasefire today, stating 236 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: that Russia told Ukraine, and they're prepared to halt their 237 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: military operations in a moment if, in fact, Ukraine agrees 238 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: to several conditions. Now, first, let me give you my doubt. 239 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: They were supposed to have a cease fire to allow 240 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: refugees to make it across the border. They're going to Poland, 241 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: adjacent countries and nearby nations. And I got to give 242 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: a lot of credit to the neighboring countries because they've 243 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: opened their arms to these refugees and many people taking 244 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: them into their homes and just opening up their hearts, 245 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 1: especially in Poland, Slovakia, Romanian, Hungary, etc. They've done a 246 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: great job of trying to help people escape, especially women 247 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: and children. So I have my I say this with 248 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: some The four conditions would be that Ukraine cease all 249 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: military action, that Ukraine changes their constitution to enshrine military neutrality, 250 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: That they acknowledge Crimea as Russian territory after the invasion 251 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: and recognize these two breakoff republics. That was used by 252 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: Putin as the pretext to send in peace keeping troops, 253 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 1: which turned out to be an all out invasion and war. 254 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: So can you trust Vladimir Putin the answers, No, you 255 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: can't trust them. The fact that that forty mile convoy 256 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: hasn't made it to KEIV telling me that this is 257 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: far more difficult than Putin said that doesn't give me 258 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: hope and confidence that this is anywhere near over and 259 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: there still can't be a massacre. However,
