Happy new year, 17 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: my friends is always thank you for spending part of 18 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 2: your day with me here. Even as we wrap up 19 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 2: the year, we have a great showd lineup for you today. 20 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: So tuck yourself in and get comfortable because it's going 21 00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: to be a big day. The Trump administration has been 22 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 2: the focal point of various lawsuits this past year. 23 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: Not surprising, is it. 24 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,199 Speaker 2: It seems that like the detractors against the administration seemed 25 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 2: steadfast and trying to throw every legal proceeding in the 26 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 2: book to somehow discredit the president, slow down his policies, 27 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 2: undermine the administration. Our first example comes from former Special 28 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: Council Jack Smith and his Arctic Frost investigation, accusing President 29 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 2: Trump of trying to overturn the results of the twenty 30 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 2: twenty election in his favor. From the start of the 31 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: investigation seemed fishy and lost even more credibility when President 32 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 2: Trump willfully conceded the election of Joe Biden. And of 33 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 2: course you can't forget that this former task force was 34 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 2: responsible for the raid at mar Lago. And of course 35 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 2: there's the ongoing legal battle from various Democrat states suing 36 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 2: the Trump administration for its use of the National Guard 37 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 2: to stop crime. Arguments in these instances boiled down to 38 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,639 Speaker 2: Trump somehow abusing presidential power. While this administration has received 39 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: its fair share of legal summons, there are also instances 40 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: where they fight back, such President Trump's lawsuit in the 41 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: sum of ten billion dollars against the BBC for yet 42 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 2: another deceptive and disparaging depiction of him in a panorama 43 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 2: documentary produced by the broadcasting giant out of the UK 44 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 2: joining me to discuss this legal expert and hosts of 45 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: the What's Right Show, Sam Razowski, Sam, nice to see again. 46 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: I want to start with mar A Lago. 47 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 2: We now know that according to the FBI and it's 48 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 2: internal people and it's Washington Field office, they didn't have 49 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 2: probable cause. It's all coming out now. The memos are there, 50 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: the emails are there. There was no probable cause to 51 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,399 Speaker 2: raid mar A Lago in the middle of twenty twenty two, 52 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 2: but it was pushed solely by the Biden administration and 53 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,279 Speaker 2: in time. I can't use these words on the program. 54 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: There were some potty words used from those who said 55 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: there were a challenge about what about the optics? We 56 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 2: don't give up about the optics were the response is, Sam, 57 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: your thought they didn't have probable cause? Sam, they did 58 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 2: it anyway for political Well, they thought they're going to 59 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: execute their political opponent figuratively speaking. 60 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: What a miserable failure. 61 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 7: I mean, this is maybe the biggest story of the 62 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 7: year because we now know dispositively that people inside the 63 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 7: Department of Justice were saying the literal exact opposite of 64 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 7: what Merrick Garland was saying publicly at the time, which 65 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 7: is that Trump was being treated no different than any 66 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 7: other criminal defendant. 67 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 8: In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. 68 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 7: He was being singled out for who he was in 69 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 7: the political threat that he presented to Biden and the Democrats. 70 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, so when they have no probable cause, they do 71 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: it anyway. Jacksonth found what thirty seven chart is whatever 72 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 2: he dropped those of course this fool's air in pursuit 73 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 2: after Trump won the twenty twenty four election. But Jack Smith, 74 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: he's being subpoened. Now, Boy, had the tables been turned? 75 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 7: Sam Well, yes, and this is where the hunters become 76 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 7: the hunted. 77 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 8: Uh, this is what we wanted to see. 78 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 7: But you know, I I I always felt instinctively that this, uh, 79 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 7: this this entire charade against Trump was a was a joke. Uh, 80 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 7: But now it's you know, you've you've got it on paper, 81 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 7: So you know, I I don't want to get too 82 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 7: far ahead of myself and think in the coming year 83 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 7: we're going to see people go to jail or lose 84 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 7: lose their law licenses. But if it were a fair 85 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 7: and equitable world, lawyers cannot doesn't matter how high profile 86 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 7: or low profile of a case it is they cannot 87 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 7: do unconstitutional things. They cannot prosecute illegal search warrants if 88 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 7: they do so for motives you know that are that 89 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 7: are that are personal or professional or or you know, 90 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 7: money related, whatever it is. You know, they they face, 91 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 7: they face disciplined by the state bar. They you know, 92 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 7: face the loss of a law license, and they certainly 93 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 7: can even even do jail time. So to me, you know, 94 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 7: there there needs to be some kind of accountability here. 95 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 7: It's all. You know, these people are all, you know, 96 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 7: basically DC people. So I don't place a high hope 97 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 7: that they'll be held accountable in the swamp, but they 98 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 7: ought to be. 99 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 2: Oh Sam, it's a new year, almost, I shouldn't we 100 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: just be optimistic? And it's yeah, never mind, all right, 101 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: let's talk about the next thing here, the attack on 102 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 2: drug boats. There's been many, now about one hundred fatalities 103 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 2: to date. Democrats seem to care a lot more about 104 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 2: the drug runners and the drug dealers than they do 105 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 2: about the moms and dads, sisters and brothers bearing loved 106 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 2: ones today somewhere in America because they overdosed on fentanyl. 107 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 2: What's happening as we speak somewhere and somewhere today, there 108 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 2: are people alive that won't be by the stroke of midnight. 109 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 2: They won't see the new year because they're going to 110 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 2: overdose on fentanel before we get there. Now, the drug boats, 111 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 2: these attacks, by the way, for anybody who doesn't know 112 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 2: and has missed the show for the last couple of weeks, 113 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 2: because I keep reminding people. The Maritime Drug Law Enforcement 114 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: Act was authored and co sponsored in nineteen eighty six 115 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: back Congressman by the name of Chuck Schumer. This New 116 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 2: York Congressman, Chuck Schumer wrote the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act, 117 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 2: which allowed the United States military to destroy drug running 118 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 2: boats and the folks on board. 119 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: It was part of the NDAA of that year. 120 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 2: And in fact, in the nineteen eighties and nineteen nineties 121 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: because of Chuck Schumer's legislation, which by the way passed 122 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 2: almost unanimously, blowing up drug boats in the eighties and 123 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 2: nineties was really common. And now apparently it's a war crime. 124 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: It's unauthorized by Congress. It's a problem. You know, Donald 125 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 2: Trump should be impeached for it. 126 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 8: Again. 127 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:47,119 Speaker 2: It's right here on my desk, Sam Chuck Schumer's work 128 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: from nineteen eighty six. 129 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: He's the one that authorized this. 130 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 7: Your thoughts, Well, the new standard for the Democrats is 131 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 7: this is Trump is doing it, then they're going to 132 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 7: do the exact opposite. No matter what you know. There 133 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 7: are there are not just this bill. There are hours 134 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 7: upon hours of impassioned argument on the floor of the 135 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 7: House and Senate by prominent Democrats, including Joe Biden himself, 136 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 7: arguing for the strictest measures of intervention against drug runners. 137 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 7: So all of a sudden, now it's it's not popular 138 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 7: because of course, you know, Trump is the one executing it, 139 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 7: and they don't want to see him have any successes. 140 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 7: This story has been and I think continues to be 141 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 7: an effort to derail the administration. You know, I think 142 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 7: that Hegseth and and the the the entire War Department 143 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 7: is exactly over the target. 144 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 5: Uh. 145 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 8: They're doing the right thing. Uh. 146 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 7: And they're doing something that that the Democrats know is 147 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 7: going to be popular. So they're trying to reframe it. 148 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 7: But I again, this is such a weak and feeble attempt. 149 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 7: And they're such hypocrites because they supported this a minute ago, 150 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 7: and and and now they're now they're pretending like none 151 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 7: of that ever existed. It's it boggles the mind. It 152 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 7: does boggle the mind. 153 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about all of the law fare targeted 154 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 2: at the Trump administration. A lot of it has ended 155 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 2: up in front of the Supreme Court. When it comes 156 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: to things like the National Guard being on the streets 157 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: of DC or Los Angeles or elsewhere. It went as 158 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 2: far as the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court said, 159 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 2: you know what, the President has the authorization to put 160 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 2: the National Guard in. And by the way, anybody who's 161 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 2: paid attention to DC their murder rate, if it goes 162 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 2: on at this rate for a twelve month period, it 163 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 2: would be the lowest murder rate for a year in 164 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 2: more than four decades. Carjackings are down seventy five percent, 165 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 2: sexual assaults down thirty five percent. 166 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: Again, I look at the Democrats. 167 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: They side with drug runners over American families bearing loved ones. 168 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 2: They side with the criminals that are running the streets 169 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 2: of America's major cities over the people that have to 170 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: live there in that chaos, in those war zones. 171 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: I mean, they on the wrong side of this. Sammer, 172 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: Am I missing something? Yeah? 173 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 7: And I'd even point out in DC they spent so 174 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,479 Speaker 7: long cooking the books on the on the violent crime statistics, 175 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 7: that the improvement is more dramatic than you even are 176 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 7: are pointing out here. So anyway, no doubt the unintended 177 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 7: consequence of all the lawfare against Trump when we look 178 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 7: back on twenty twenty five, is going to be a 179 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 7: vastly expanded UH presidential power because I think when you 180 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 7: look at a number of these cases, they're going they've 181 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 7: gone very well for Trump, uh, and the Supreme Court 182 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 7: has has has, if anything, has expanded the power of 183 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 7: the presidency in the past year. And I think Trump 184 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 7: is getting ready or is teeing the ball up to 185 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 7: prepare for, you know, a tough three years ahead, depending 186 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 7: on how the midterms go. So he's going to use 187 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 7: his new presidential powers and he's going to use them aggressively. 188 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 7: And this this, you know, by bringing it to the 189 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 7: court in most cases, the Democrats have just basically emboldened 190 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 7: the president further and given him more weapons that is 191 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 7: disposed I legally speaking. So it's one of those things 192 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 7: that I think has backfired on them and will continue 193 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 7: to backfire him on them for the next several years. 194 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, so let's talk about it. Going into 195 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 2: the new year, there are other lawsuits. Look, this is 196 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 2: what they've got Sam. They can't stop him politically, they 197 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 2: can't stop him from improving the economy and closing the border, 198 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 2: and now they're trying to stop him from deporting illegal aliens. 199 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: You see this all the time, attacking. 200 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: Ice officers and trying to create chaos, and then members 201 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: of Congress going there and bump chess with some of 202 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 2: these law enforced officers. They claim that they're somehow the 203 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 2: victim when they get arrested. They're not, of course, But 204 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 2: what do you foresee in twenty twenty six. 205 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,599 Speaker 7: Well, I think I worry economically we're in for a 206 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 7: tough road ahead. I think that we have not finished 207 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 7: paying for the disasters of the of the Biden administration. 208 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 7: So uh, I think we're in for rough waters. And 209 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 7: I think, thank goodness we have Trump because some of 210 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 7: the uh we've we've made it, We've prepared for this. 211 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 8: Now. 212 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 7: Trump has massively deregulated our government. I mean they have 213 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 7: gone through and and and cut all sorts of red tape. 214 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 7: They've slimmed down the size of the federal government. Uh, 215 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 7: they have you know, I believe in the long run, 216 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 7: you know, tariffs, and what Trump has done with those 217 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 7: tariffs is is going to is going to help repatriate 218 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 7: jobs and and boost manufacturing at home. There's all sorts 219 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 7: of good indicators. I really do think, though, that next 220 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 7: year is going to be rough, and I hope that 221 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 7: we see and I believe that we will our recovery 222 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,719 Speaker 7: in time for the mid terms so that people can 223 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 7: can see that, you know, Trump economics is really our 224 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 7: hope here to to recover from the last four years 225 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 7: that have been absolutely a complete and total disaster. 226 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: And on the other. 227 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 2: Side of that, on occasion, Donald Trump takes a big 228 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 2: swing back using. 229 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: The legal system. 230 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 2: For example, he's won some multimillion dollar cases from CBS 231 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 2: News and others in the media for basically smearing him 232 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 2: every step of the way, the latest being a lawsuit 233 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 2: ten billion dollars against the BBC for what he says 234 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 2: was fraudulent editing. 235 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: I'm not sure if that's exactly the word he used, 236 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: but you get it. 237 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: They twisted his whole conversation, the speech that he gave 238 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 2: on January the sixth, prior to the riots at the Capitol, 239 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 2: which you all admit was an ugly day, but Donald 240 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 2: Trump didn't say that he's a be peaceful go to 241 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 2: the Capitol, but they well, of course they omitted those portions. 242 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 2: He's had a lot of success suing these big media companies. 243 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: How do you gauge this one? 244 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 7: Well, this case, this was pretty egregious. I mean they 245 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 7: they made him sound like he was whipped up the 246 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 7: crowd into a frenzy, which, by the way, is how 247 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 7: most people who are his critics remember that day. It 248 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 7: just is at complete odds with with with the facts 249 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 7: and with the reality of what his speech you know, 250 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 7: actually said. So the BBC has a large audience. The 251 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 7: other part of it is that these laws actually are 252 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 7: are a little bit better for the plaintiff overseas and 253 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 7: in in the UK. So you know, I give this this, 254 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 7: this will be I could see Trump being successful in 255 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 7: this case. But regardless, it's the threat of this litigation 256 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 7: that's going to keep a media somewhat on their toes. 257 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 7: I mean, they're still going to try to pull fast ones. 258 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 7: And we saw that in the Vanity Fair piece with 259 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 7: Susie Wiles a couple of weeks ago. And but you know, 260 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 7: but I mean it's Trump is fighting back. He's not 261 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 7: taking any of this laying down the media is vicious 262 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 7: and vile, and he has to do it. 263 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: He has to do it. 264 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 2: Sam Marjowski, I greatly appreciate all your contributions here in 265 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. You've been a great addition to the 266 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 2: program many many times. I look forward to having you 267 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 2: back in twenty twenty. So it's happy new year, my friend. 268 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 8: Happy new year. See you too, Steve. Take care there 269 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 8: you have it. 270 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: I can assure you many high profile lawsuits and cases 271 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: and action in the courtroom still to come in twenty 272 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 2: twenty six. 273 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 9: I'll be right back well in twenty twenty five. Is 274 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 9: that to expire? 275 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 2: At the end of the day, at the stroke of midnight, 276 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 2: I thought we should take some time to reflect reflect 277 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 2: on the success of President Trump in his first year 278 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 2: of his second term, especially with his efforts and in conflicts. 279 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: Around the world. 280 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 2: From brokering peace deals in the Middle East of pressuring 281 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 2: adversaries like Iran to negotiate or else, Trump's approach emphasized 282 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: American strength and strategic leverage. President Trump's policies have generally 283 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: restored global respect for the US, avoided prolonged military and 284 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 2: gag and advanced stability in regions long plagued by tension 285 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 2: and some by socialism. 286 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: Joining me to. 287 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: Discuss this, former Congressman and executive director of the American 288 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: Constitutional Rights Union, Lieutenant Colonel Alan West, Colonel, nice to see. 289 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 6: It, Good to see you, good to be with you, 290 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 6: and a happy New Year. 291 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: To you, and a happy New Year to you. Yeah. 292 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: I do want to talk about the peace deals and 293 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: so forth. But what just popped in my mind was 294 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: this advancement of liberty. And I look at Malay in Argentina. Man, 295 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 2: he's rocking it down there. That economy's turned around. 296 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: Now. Chile has just voted to get rid of the socialists. 297 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 2: So did Bulgaria in the last couple of weeks get 298 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 2: rid of socialism. There is this movement in places like Italy, 299 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 2: Argentina and others to say, you know what, we tried 300 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 2: that woke nonsense. We're seeing what Donald Trump is doing. 301 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: We're seeing that he's putting America first. We want to 302 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: put Bulgaria first, and Chile first, and Argentina first, and 303 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 2: Italy first. He's created this global movement towards freedom. 304 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 6: I think, no, you're absolutely right, and that's one of 305 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 6: the key things about being as Ronald Reagan once talked about, 306 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 6: that shining city that sits upon a hill, and that 307 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 6: hill is a beacon of liberty and freedom and individual rights. 308 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 6: And so when people start to see that once again 309 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 6: re establishing itself in the United States of America, that 310 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 6: light shines out upon him and it cast out that 311 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 6: darkness of Marxism, socialism, Islamic extremism, and Jahadism, all of 312 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 6: these isms that really seek to undermine individual rights and liberty. 313 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 6: And so, yes, we have seen an incredible turnaround, not 314 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 6: just here for the United States of America but across 315 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 6: the entire globe because we are reasserting ourselves as a 316 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 6: leader of the free world. 317 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and as you look at some of those peace deals, 318 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 2: most recently Rawata and the Republic of the Congo. I 319 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 2: was at the White House when they arrived and they 320 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: went behind closed doors and came out to sign a deal. 321 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 2: It was a remarkable accomplishment. They were like thirty or 322 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 2: forty years in war. And now you know, none of 323 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 2: these things are guaranteed, but hopefully that's an end of it, 324 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 2: that's the le of it, and hopefully we can get 325 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 2: a few other big wins. Ukraine and Russia still hanging 326 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 2: out there. But look, it's progress in places that look, 327 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 2: most people couldn't even find on a map, But Donald 328 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 2: Trump did, didn't he. 329 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, you're absolutely right. And the thing is that he 330 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 6: has done so without the expenditure of major United States 331 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 6: military power, force or formations. You know, really and truthfully, 332 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 6: where he has leveraged the military, it's been very targeted 333 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 6: strike operations. But without a doubt, you have seen an 334 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 6: incredible form policy expenditure. You've seen an incredible form policy 335 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 6: you know that has you know, really brought about these 336 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 6: things across the country. And it's been about engagement. I 337 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 6: know there's so many people to talk about Donald Trump 338 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 6: as an isolationist. I don't see it that way. I 339 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 6: see him asserting American strength and power smartly and re 340 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 6: establishing that maximum peace through strength, but not always having 341 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 6: to come in and see everything as a nail and 342 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 6: you have to be the hammer. 343 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, another place of strength. I think I've got this right. 344 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 2: When I read this, I was a little surprised. It's remarkable. 345 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 2: Border crossings are down ninety six percent, just a little bit. 346 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 2: You know, we heard the Biden administration all we need 347 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 2: immigration reform all, we can't do. 348 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: Much about it. 349 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 2: And we also saw them down there with bulldozers taking 350 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: out razor wire, put them by the State of Texas 351 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 2: to open the border up completely. 352 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: It was a policy, It wasn't an accident. 353 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: But Donald Trump has brought it down ninety six percent, 354 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 2: protecting the American people. 355 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: It's disrupted the flow of drugs. 356 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 2: Now he's going after the narco terrorist boats in the 357 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 2: Caribbean and elsewhere, disrupting the money to the cartels. This 358 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 2: is all important for the long term safety of the 359 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: people of this country, isn't it. 360 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 6: You're absolutely right, And it goes back to what President 361 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 6: Trump said at the beginning of this year his State 362 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 6: of the Union address, and it wasn't about we needed 363 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 6: a new policy. 364 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 3: We just needed a new president. 365 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: And think about that very first. 366 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 6: Year of Joe Biden coming in and was of some 367 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 6: one of the first things he did. He got rid 368 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 6: of some ninety to ninety five executive orders that opened 369 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 6: up our border. And look what happened there. Look at 370 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 6: the hundreds of thousands of Americans that died because of 371 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 6: the fentanyl. And now we're going after these narco terrorists. 372 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 6: We're seeing them as they are and we're starting to 373 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 6: put a dent in the billions of dollars that they 374 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 6: were making off the United States America through the human 375 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 6: sex and drug trafficking. So yes, it cannot be debated 376 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 6: what Donald Trump has done on the front of our 377 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 6: border security and also what he's seeking to do with 378 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 6: our domestic security and protecting the American people. 379 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 2: Why are Democrats and progressives so much more concerned about 380 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 2: the guys that are driving these drug boats or manning 381 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 2: these drug boats getting killed when they don't seem to 382 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 2: care as much about the moms and dads burying their 383 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 2: kids all across America and small towns and big cities 384 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 2: everywhere because they've died from this scourge of this poison 385 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 2: of fentanyl and other illegal drugs. It seems that their 386 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 2: priorities might be just a little bit out of whack. 387 00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 6: No, you're absolutely right now. I think that's really the 388 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 6: guess he's going into twenty twenty six. What are the 389 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 6: priorities of the progressive socialists, the Marxist, the leftist, the 390 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 6: Democrat Party. The Democrat Party does not care about the 391 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 6: American people. They don't care that you have criminal illegal 392 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 6: immigrants that are terrorizing the American people. They don't care 393 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 6: about Islami Jihadis, they don't care about narco terrorists. All 394 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 6: they care about is them having control and power. And 395 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 6: what they see is that Donald Trump and the Republicans, 396 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 6: because we're coming up on a midterm election cycle, or 397 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 6: standing in the way of them having power, having control, 398 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 6: having totalitarian domination. That's why they're very comfortable in going 399 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 6: out and pleading the cases of narcro criminal terrorists, saying 400 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 6: that they're just fishermen, or they're very adapting as suit 401 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 6: and going out and alignment themselves with Islami Jihadis like Hamas. 402 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: The only way we maintain that momentum. 403 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 2: The deficit is down six hundred million dollars, the border 404 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 2: is sealed, the economy is coming back. 405 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: Gas is cheaper, energy is cheap. 406 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 2: But the only way you maintain that momentum is to 407 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 2: hang on to the House and set. 408 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: Midterms will be critically important. I'll give you the last word. 409 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 6: No, you're absolutely right, And all we need to do 410 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 6: is remember in President Trump's first term when he lost 411 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 6: that midterm election. Well, with the last two years about impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, 412 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 6: we don't need to go back down that path, and 413 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 6: I think the American people will be able to clearly 414 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 6: see a delineation of difference between having Republicans up there 415 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 6: on Capitol Hill carrying out Donald Trump's American First policies 416 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 6: instead of allowing people like Zorah mom Donnie or Brandon 417 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 6: Johnson or Gavin Newsom and that ILK to be in 418 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 6: control of the United States of America. 419 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I am bullish on twenty twenty sixth, Colonel, I 420 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:39,239 Speaker 2: hope you are too. 421 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: Happy New Year, my friend, Happy New Year. 422 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 2: God bless God be with you.

However, 468 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 4: in this case, I do not think possibly it's enough, 469 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 4: and I put shame Gribber on the university. The athletic 470 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 4: director was told there was the rumor circulating about this 471 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 4: affair that Sean Moore was having with this thirty one 472 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 4: she maybe thirty two year old now insubordinate working for 473 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 4: him in the program. Yeah whatever, her age is old 474 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 4: enough to also know that this isn't a great situation 475 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 4: for her to be in. But she is still working 476 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 4: at the university, but there were rumors they heard of it. 477 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 4: They asked the two of them, they said no. When 478 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 4: it really got violent and unhinged is when she then 479 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 4: ended it. And two days later he did all of 480 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 4: the things you mentioned, going to her place with butter 481 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 4: knives and scissors. And what really stood out to me 482 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 4: is there were other women he was following on Instagram 483 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 4: and social media platforms. Not that that means you're doing 484 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 4: anything just so long obsessively, but you know, one of 485 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 4: these only fan girls came out and said that he 486 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 4: DMed her after he got out of jail. So if 487 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 4: you had any sympathy, and I found it very interesting 488 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 4: that Shannon Sharp, who also had to settle the sexual 489 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 4: assault case of his own, was like saying how much 490 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,919 Speaker 4: he felt for him. People aren't there for you and 491 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 4: the pressure cooker, Well, most people aren't going to commit 492 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 4: a crime, Okay, Like this could have been a serious 493 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 4: safety issue. And what's sad is the self sabotage. You 494 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 4: mentioned that leading into this, you're thirty nine years would 495 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 4: be thirty nine and he was the twenty worker here, 496 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 4: the first African American coach. No, he'll never work again, 497 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 4: and he should not This is a case where your 498 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 4: behavior you have three kids at home and a wife. 499 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 4: It's just egregious. And I blame me the University of 500 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 4: Michigan for this. 501 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm a Michigan fan and I feel the 502 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 2: same way. I want to grab a couple other headlines 503 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 2: from the year. Though there are some class acts out there. 504 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes has generally been one of them, but boy, 505 00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 2: he suffered a heartbreaking injury. 506 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 4: They he did, and listen how odd this is? Okay, 507 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 4: Both he and Tom Brady, who he's frequently compared to, 508 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 4: won three Super Bowls, and they both tore their ACL 509 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 4: in their ninth season without either team making the playoffs. 510 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,959 Speaker 4: That's kind of a crazy coincidence, if you will, and freaky, 511 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 4: and I think we need to look at is the 512 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 4: season too long with them adding the extra game? You know, 513 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 4: the commissioner wants to expand internationally and continue to do 514 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 4: so as he has been because there's been a record 515 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 4: amount of injuries this year. You know, he rolled his leg. 516 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 4: It landed funny when he was rolling out of the pocket. 517 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 4: But yeah, that's a devastating loss. But knowing Patrick Mahomes, 518 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 4: he'll be ready for the start of the next season. 519 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 4: I have no doubt about that. 520 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: We'll see what happened Joe. 521 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 2: Philip Rivers can play when he's forty four, So Tom 522 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 2: Brady knows the being Tom Brady. If we're going to 523 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 2: end on this, what a revelation he has been in 524 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: the broadcast booth. Honestly, Tom Brady has been terrific because 525 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 2: who knows the game better When he's calling play by 526 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: player color commentary, I should say, man, he just fills 527 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 2: in the gaps really well. 528 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 4: For me, he does, and I found it interesting. He 529 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 4: was asked if he would go back like Philip Rivers 530 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 4: to be quarterback. He's a little bit older, he's closer 531 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 4: to fifty, and he said the only reason he wouldn't 532 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 4: is because he has now a minority stake in the Raiders. 533 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 4: If he didn't, he said, I would suit up just 534 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:24,120 Speaker 4: like Philip Rivers. So I love this, this throwback. 535 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 1: Right. 536 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 4: They're the greatest of all time for a reason. So yeah, 537 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 4: he's been incredible as an announcer as well. 538 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 2: All that toxic masculinity running around on the football field. 539 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: Britt always good talking to you. 540 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 2: We'll see what twenty twenty six has on tap, But 541 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 2: it's been an interesting year. 542 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: In politics and sports. As always, thank you for being. 543 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 4: Here, Thank you for having me. 544 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 1: Of course. All right, we're going to take a break 545 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: and be back. 546 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: This is the New Year's Eve edition of America's Voice Live. 547 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 1: Do you like those stories? 548 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 2: Send me the email Steve Gruber dot com. Tell me 549 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 2: what you think about twenty twenty five, all of it. 550 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 2: I'll be right back. Well, since we pretty much reached 551 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 2: the end of twenty twenty five, I thought it'd be 552 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 2: a good idea to revisit an interview from earlier in 553 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 2: the year. 554 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: Agriculture is the backbhin of America. 555 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 2: Puts food on americans tables, and that's why it's so 556 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 2: important that we ensure that American agriculture is protected. Earlier 557 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 2: this year, two nationalists were caught smuggling a fungus into 558 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 2: the US that could have devastated American crops. 559 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 1: They were, of course, from China. 560 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 2: I brought on Congress from Mark Harris from North Carolina. 561 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,239 Speaker 2: He serves on the Agriculture Committee. Take a look at 562 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 2: what he had to say about China and farmland in America. 563 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 2: Obviously North Carolina and agricultural state as well a lot 564 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 2: of rural farmland where you represent the whole country. I 565 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 2: don't care if it's Michigan, North Carolina, Iowa, Illinois. How 566 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 2: important do you think this is the USDA to ban 567 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 2: China from buying farmland here in America. 568 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 3: Well state. 569 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 10: I think it's critically important, and I want to applaud 570 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 10: Secretary Rollins for taking the lead on this and bringing 571 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 10: that out. There were a number of things that came 572 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 10: out of that meeting yesterday when the Cabinet was gathered, 573 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 10: and Secretary Rollins shared even then and she held up 574 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 10: that map if any of you happened to see that, 575 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 10: and it just showed the places that the Chinese government owns. 576 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 3: And we did some digging and found out in. 577 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 10: My own district, probably five of the nine counties that 578 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 10: I represent in the eighth District of North Carolina have 579 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 10: land that is owned by the Chinese government through these 580 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 10: hog farms and things that they have purchased. 581 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 3: Really play a major part in this. 582 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 10: And there, of course, we have Fort Bragg, which is 583 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 10: always and has always been such a centerpiece in North Carolina, 584 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 10: and again that we just got a real problem of 585 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 10: them having land around these military bases that should be 586 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 10: concerning to every American. 587 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a whole list of things that I find concerning. 588 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 2: I heard the farmer there, Mark Benjamin, talk about ag 589 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 2: terrorism what it would mean devastating American crops. It would 590 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 2: not just hurt America, but places that have food insecurity 591 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 2: sub Saharan Africa, because we supplied tremendous amount of grain 592 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 2: to that part of the world. In other parts as well. 593 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 2: You've got that antibiotics. We don't even make antibiotics in 594 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 2: America anymore. China makes them. All RX our prescriptions linked 595 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: right to China at the NIH today the National Institutes 596 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,719 Speaker 2: of out there are one thousand Chinese citizens who are 597 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 2: employed as scientists at the NIH. 598 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: I think we have been. 599 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 2: Terribly reckless leaving the door open, sir, to people that 600 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 2: don't care what happens to America. They care only about 601 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 2: what happens to China. Building up the CCP, there seems 602 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 2: to be a lot more work to be done. What 603 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 2: would you say, Oh. 604 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 3: I agree with you one hundred percent. 605 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 10: You know, not only server on Agriculture committee, but also 606 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 10: serve on education and workforce. And one of the things 607 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 10: that we noticed early in my first term here was 608 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 10: that China had a significant amount of money wrapped up 609 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 10: in the contracts with our institutions of higher education, and 610 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 10: so we actually entered a bill that there would be 611 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 10: no contracts with foreign adversaries, and it got wrapped into 612 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 10: a larger bill that was called the Deterrent Act, which 613 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 10: we did pass in the US House, already is sitting 614 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 10: over there in the US Senate. And I'm hopeful that 615 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 10: now that we've got the one big, beautiful bill done, 616 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 10: that Senator Thune's going to be able to take action 617 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 10: on that and let's get it to the President's desk. 618 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 3: But listen, we've got to be very much aware, I 619 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 3: mean four. 620 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 10: Hundred thousand acres I believe it is that China owns 621 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 10: of our farm land here in the United States, and 622 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 10: we cannot be too careful. And again, grateful for this administration, 623 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 10: grateful for the President's commitment and Saint Terry Rollins in 624 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 10: this particular case stepping up and calling it out. 625 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 3: And there's a number of things going on in Congress right. 626 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 10: Now, several bills that have been introduced that we're looking at, 627 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 10: some from just like this which would call for an 628 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 10: all out ban on it completely. Others know that there's 629 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 10: a bill floated that would say that we would take 630 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 10: the same position that countries take with us. China certainly 631 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 10: doesn't allow us to own their farm land, and why 632 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 10: in the world should we them owns over one hundred 633 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 10: thousand acres. 634 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 2: So yeah, I would take a step further and say 635 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 2: we shouldn't allow any foreigners to own land in the 636 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 2: United States. I can't own land in Mexico, for example, 637 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 2: I can lease it for ninety nine years, I can 638 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 2: never own it. And that's the way many countries approach 639 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 2: this sort of thing with real estate. Look, you've got 640 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 2: the Rushigate cover up, the Biden declined cover up when 641 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 2: he was in office, the Epstein cover up, which is 642 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 2: more in the headlines, and the China cover up of 643 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 2: money with the Biden administration as well. It makes me 644 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 2: ask the questions a lot of people do how much 645 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 2: money float into the Biden White House or into Hunter 646 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: Biden's coffers because of their relationship with China, and who 647 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 2: is really paying the price? 648 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: And we need to know more about that? Would you agree? 649 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 3: Oh? 650 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 10: I do agree, And I think that the Oversight Committee, 651 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 10: under the leadership of Congressman Comer, is continuing to dig 652 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 10: down on these issues. 653 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 3: It's just like. 654 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 10: Peeling back an onion layer after later, and I think 655 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 10: that one thing seems to attach to the other. And 656 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 10: I think all of these that you mentioned are certainly 657 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 10: critical issues that have got to be investigated, got to 658 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 10: be uncovered, and we're going to see it happen, I think, 659 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 10: in the weeks ahead. 660 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no question we have countries on this earth 661 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 2: that threaten US, Russia or on North Korea, but nobody 662 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 2: is a bigger adversary than China, and they run an 663 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 2: asymmetrical war against us every single day. 664 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: Whether we realize we're in a war with China and. 665 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 2: The CCP or not, they believe they are with us, 666 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 2: and that's a critical thing to keep in mind. Well, 667 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 2: don't go anywhere when we come back on this New 668 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 2: Year's Eve addition of America's Voice Live more on agriculture 669 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 2: and how it is so important as the backbone of America. 670 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 2: In just a moment, welcome back to this America's Voice 671 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 2: Live special edition for New Year's Eve. 672 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: Now. Just moments ago in the last time, when I played. 673 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: An interview for you with Mark Harris discussing the importance 674 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 2: of protecting American agriculture from everyone Earlier this year, I 675 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 2: did a special right here in Real America's Voice with 676 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 2: my good friend John Solomon of Justin News discussing this 677 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 2: important topic. 678 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 1: We took a deep dive to give you the viewer 679 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: and inside look. Here's part of it. 680 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 5: Chinese warfare in America is ubiquitous and unless we wake 681 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,399 Speaker 5: up and soon, they could win this war because they're 682 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 5: fighting on battlefields we don't know exist or at least 683 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 5: don't pay attention to. And one of the most disturbings 684 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 5: is unfolding in the nation's hardlands. 685 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 2: Bioterrorism, bioterrorism, biowarfare, yes warfare, warfare without fire and shot. 686 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 5: Mark Benjamin is a sixth generation farmer in southern Michigan. 687 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 5: The family began feeding the nation sometime around eighteen eighty 688 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 5: and his forefathers and mothers, I've been turning this ground 689 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 5: ever since. They faced a great depression, floods, droughts, and 690 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 5: tornadoes as well. But Mark says the recent arrest of 691 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 5: several Chinese students from the University of Michigan carrying fun 692 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 5: designed to attack corn, beans, wheat, and rice is an 693 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 5: all new threat and one that he takes quite seriously. 694 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 5: From what you've read from what you've figured out, an 695 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 5: enhanced fungus that maybe is fung just side resistant, and 696 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 5: that's what you're reading. 697 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: What would it mean? What could it mean? 698 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 11: Right now, we can treat the diseases on wheat and 699 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 11: corn with a fungus side, but the stuff this third 700 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 11: person snuck into the US is stuff that they can 701 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 11: use to make the disease resistant to our fungus sides. 702 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: What would that mean? 703 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,720 Speaker 11: That would mean that easily wipe out half the crop 704 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 11: half half? 705 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 5: Easy? 706 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: If it's on. 707 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 11: Wheat right now, every year we're dealing with it. Even 708 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 11: sometimes when it's treated for it, you'll still get docked 709 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 11: if the wheat has too much vomitoxin in it. 710 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 2: If you look around, you know, wheat, corn, beans, whatever 711 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 2: field you look at. If the United States lost half 712 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 2: of its crop, because once it was here, the fungus 713 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 2: spreads naturally, doesn't It just gets in the air and 714 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 2: it goes. 715 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's airborne, and course it could be spread intentionally anywhere, 716 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 11: and when you get the right weather conditions, with a 717 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 11: right amount of rain and the winds, it'll spread. 718 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: If America lost half of its crop. 719 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 11: What would that mean If the fungus was to be 720 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 11: enhanced so it's more potent, and then also enhanced so 721 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 11: we can't control the fungusides and we lose half a 722 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 11: crop for a couple of years, then you're starting to 723 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 11: talk about massive world starvation. 724 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: That's right. 725 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 5: Famine like America has never known because from the first 726 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 5: days of Europeans settling this nation, there's always been farmland, 727 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 5: and not just ordinary farmland, but the most productive land 728 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 5: in the world. And for the last one hundred and 729 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 5: fifty years, America and the American farmers have fed the world. 730 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 5: In fact, America currently exports about twenty five percent of 731 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 5: its grain production annually. The impact of an agricultural failure 732 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,919 Speaker 5: here would be felt around the world, especially in areas 733 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 5: where food and security is already an issue like Sub 734 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 5: Saharan Africa. 735 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 2: Backroads like this have been the backbone of America from 736 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 2: the beginning of this country, farms, farmland. 737 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 1: They've fed a nation. 738 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 2: In fact, we've fed the world. But now farmers here 739 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:29,280 Speaker 2: in places. 740 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 1: Like this, they're worried. 741 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 2: They're worried that their lifestyle is being taken away, their 742 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 2: farms are going bankrupt, and they're not being targeted by 743 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 2: China and they're worried because they know how ruthless China 744 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 2: can be, especially when it comes to things like bioterrorism. 745 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,320 Speaker 12: If they're willing to sneak in fungus now, and they're 746 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 12: probably have snuck in fungus before, or any other past 747 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 12: or any other genetics for catching them already, we can 748 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 12: expect them to ramp it up, you know, especially as 749 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 12: world tensions they're escalating. They're going to use any method 750 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 12: they can find to mess with us and give themselves 751 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 12: an advantage over us. 752 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 1: And if they starve us to death, they probably don't care. 753 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 12: Do they No, they don't care. And that's where we 754 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 12: need to rely on our politicians and government to help 755 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 12: prevent it. 756 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 5: Alex Clark is another family farmer who's deeply concerned about 757 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 5: what he sees on the news and reads in the headlines, 758 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 5: and he's frustrated because to him, Washington is very slow 759 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 5: to react to the clear and emerging threat of bioterror 760 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 5: and using weapons as simple as enhanced fungus to take 761 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,760 Speaker 5: down the nation. Instead of banning China for owning American 762 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 5: farmland production facilities and even seed companies, Washington remains silent, 763 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,919 Speaker 5: placated by lobbyists and a whole lot of Chinese money. 764 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 1: Doesn't that value? 765 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 2: I mean here you our fourth generation family farm. Honestly, 766 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 2: China shows up. They buy the seed company, that buy 767 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: the meat packing company. They send their scientists here to 768 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 2: steal intllectual property. When we make advancements at Michigan State 769 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 2: or Texas A and m or ohiose It or wherever 770 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 2: it is, they either by their way in or sneak 771 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 2: their way in. 772 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 12: It's upsetting because for like my brother and I, we're 773 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 12: relatively small operation. We don't have any control over what 774 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 12: China is doing what We don't have any control over 775 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 12: what they're doing in you know, Chicago or Toledo in 776 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 12: terms of prices. So we're kind of at the mercy 777 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:25,759 Speaker 12: of our country and we're competing with these Chinese you know, 778 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 12: actors that are most likely manipulating them all. We know 779 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 12: they're manipulate the markets with you know, dipping into surpluses 780 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 12: or changing their imports and exports. It affects us, you know, 781 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 12: directly every day, directly and in directly every day. 782 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 5: So what if what if China took the next step 783 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 5: to destroy American crops? 784 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 1: What would that mean? 785 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 5: Well, According to Mark Benjamin, the damage would be far 786 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 5: worse than hunger and breadlines. 787 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: He believes it could destroy the nation altogether. 788 00:39:56,160 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 11: You take out the US economy how farms fail, you 789 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 11: have massive bank problems. If the US agriculture is hit 790 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 11: with US okay, farms fail, average house in the USA, 791 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 11: fifty eight thousand dollars of somebody's mortgage is just for 792 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 11: the land the house is sitting on. You wipe out 793 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 11: US farms, land values crash to practically nothing, all of 794 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 11: a sudden, over night, housing mortgages are upside down because 795 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 11: the land it's sitting on that costs fifty eight thousand 796 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:34,040 Speaker 11: dollars is now worth one two thousand dollars. And then 797 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 11: that's a problem for all the banks. And we go 798 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 11: back to the same housing crisis with mortgage crisis we 799 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 11: had ten fifteen years ago. And then the US is 800 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 11: spending all what's money to try to keep that afloat, 801 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 11: and we're no longer able to invest in defense. 802 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 2: So China brings in a fungus, creates an agricultural failure, 803 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 2: creates a failure of farms, creates a crash in the 804 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 2: price of land, creates a bank panic, creates a default 805 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 2: by the federal government. 806 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:04,359 Speaker 1: Is that about right? 807 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 11: One domino after another? 808 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 1: Yes, so are we at war? It's pretty clear we are. 809 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 5: It's pretty clear that China has been targeting us on 810 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 5: every level, from supply chains to the energy grid and 811 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 5: now our food. 812 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 2: Now, after the break, we'll have a story that reminds 813 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 2: us just how wonderful America is. 814 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 1: And still is. 815 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 2: Plush your answers to our America's Voice. Question of the day, 816 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 2: don't go anywhere. This is America's voice. Live, Happy New Year. 817 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 2: What makes America wonderful? We do it every day here 818 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 2: with the hope of putting a smile on your face, 819 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 2: especially heading into a new year. 820 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 1: Right. 821 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 2: Today's story comes to us from Barron County, Kentucky, where 822 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 2: a STEM teacher secretly worked on a project to transform 823 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 2: the life of one of his students. STEM teacher Scott 824 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 2: Johnson spent nearly a year in researching, designing, and perfecting 825 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 2: a three D printed prosthetic hand for one of his 826 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 2: fourth grade students, Jackson Farmer. Jackson was born without a 827 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 2: right hand, and because of this, he had to wear 828 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 2: a general rubber prosthetic that matched his skin tone. The 829 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 2: only problem being that the generic hand did not have 830 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 2: any functionality in terms of grip or anything else, so 831 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,360 Speaker 2: without telling Jackson, mister Johnson got to work on the 832 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,760 Speaker 2: new three D printed prosthetic, which he recounts involved building 833 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 2: a custom design and employing the help from other engineers 834 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 2: to ultimately fine tune every detail make sure that everything 835 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 2: was perfect for the grand unveiling. After countless hours in 836 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 2: between classes, the hand was revealed to Jackson and his 837 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 2: parents and the mechanics of the hand see Jackson controlling 838 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 2: the new prosthetic mechanically with his wrist movements, which now 839 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 2: allow him to grip, gesture, and point as well. Altruism 840 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,400 Speaker 2: come in many ways today. Scott Johnson's heartfelt gesture reminds 841 00:42:55,440 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 2: us of what makes America wonderful. A new hand that 842 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:02,879 Speaker 2: has got to put a smile on your face puts 843 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,280 Speaker 2: one on mine.
