1 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: Joe Biden has not been good. I know, I know, 2 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,959 Speaker 1: stop the presses. That's breaking news. Joe Biden has not 3 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: been good, and I mean really, really really not good. 4 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: And no I'm not just talking about his physical and 5 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 1: mental limitations. Clearly we are dealing with an elderly individual 6 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: who's not doing well. Let's set that aside. This is 7 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 1: not what the show is about tonight. It has been 8 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: disaster after disaster after disaster since this guy took office. 9 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 1: And that's not just me some far right winger saying that, look, 10 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: did you see in the recent poll numbers. Independence are 11 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 1: saying that the country is looking on in horror at 12 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: how bad this presidency has been. And it has been really, really, 13 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: really bad. And in a really short amount of time, 14 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: my word, imagine a few more years of this. So 15 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: what is as big as disaster? We thought we should 16 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: do a show on Let's go through them, let's rank them. 17 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: I'll pick a winner, and my heart tells me this 18 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: one might win. But we got a bunch of great 19 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 1: guests on tonight, and I'm gonna let them all make 20 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: their case. And when I say, my heart tells me 21 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: this one might might. When let's start with Afghanistan. This 22 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: is not something I can let go. On top of 23 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 1: the international embarrassment, our allies are mad at us, our 24 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: enemies think where weak and pathetic. On top of all that, 25 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is directly responsible for the death of thirteen 26 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: of our warriors. There's not a second way to look 27 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: at this. There's not a second way. We got thirteen 28 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: of our warriors killed. We gave up Bogram without evacuating 29 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: our civilians, and then scrambled like a bunch of amateurs 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: and said, oh, I'll just do from the airport. Well, 31 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: you can't promptly secure an airport. And we got thirteen 32 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: of our guys dead. And then and then, in response 33 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: to thirteen of our guys being killed by Joe Biden's 34 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: idiotic policies, we then turned around and incinerated a family 35 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: of ten. And I can't let this go either, because 36 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: human life matters. Have you seen the pictures of that 37 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: family of ten. I'm not going to put them up 38 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 1: for you, but have you seen the pictures? There were 39 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: adorable little kids in there. We drone striked an AID worker. 40 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: And not only did the Biden administration drone strike an 41 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: AID worker in response to our people being blown up. 42 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: They initially leaked that they had hit isis remember that. 43 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: I know they don't want you to remember that, but 44 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,679 Speaker 1: I remember that. Well. What isis targets taken out. It 45 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: was an AID worker who worked with us in a 46 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: bunch of little kids. So, like I said, if we're 47 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: going on my heart, I say that one might win. 48 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: But I mean Joe Biden thinks it was a big success. 49 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: No nation, no nation has ever done anything like it 50 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: in all the history. The only the United States had 51 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: the capacity and the will and the ability to do it, 52 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: and we did it today. The extraordinary success of this 53 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: mission was due to the incredible skill, bravely and selfless 54 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: courage of the that's the president sounding like we just 55 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: did something great. I'll tell you what. And look he 56 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: lied as General's told him, hold on to Bogram, what 57 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: are you talking about? Would do this right? He didn't? 58 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: Then lied about that, and thirteen of our guys are killed, 59 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: plus the ten we incinerated over there. But that's not 60 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: the only scandal, you see. Joe Biden may have lied 61 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: about Afghanistan, but dang, if he didn't tell the truth 62 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: about the border, what I would do as president? As 63 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: several more things. Because things have changed. I would, in 64 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: fact make sure that there is we immediately surge to 65 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: the border. All those people are seeking asylum. They deserve 66 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: to be heard. That's who we are. Where a nation says, 67 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: if you want to flee and you're freeing oppression, you 68 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: should come. Once again, we don't watch when other world 69 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: leaders speak. We don't. You don't, I don't. I talk 70 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: politics for a living, an hour of TV every day, 71 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: three hours of radio every single day. I couldn't tell 72 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: you what Vladimir Putin's voice is. I mean, I've heard it, 73 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: but I couldn't pick it out of nothing. I don't 74 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: listen when he speaks. I don't care, and pain Merkel, McCrone, 75 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: any of I don't know. They all know what the 76 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: president says. The world watches, and they were all watching 77 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: when the president said that during the debates, and so 78 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: the second he got sworn in, they did exactly lee 79 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: what he told them to do, and they surged the border. 80 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: We are now a million already. We don't know the numbers. 81 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: They're hiding them from us. A million illegal was pouring in. 82 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: You remember, just recently it was fourteen thousand Haitians amassed 83 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: on our border, and we let them into. And now 84 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: we're already getting word from places in Central America that, ah, hey, guys, 85 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: guess what, Since you let those fourteen thousand in, there 86 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: are a lot more coming. There's already another gigantic caravan 87 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: on the way. And there's simply not another way to 88 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: look at the border situation than it being an intentional 89 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: destruction of our country. There's no possible explanation for flooding 90 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: a sovereign nation with illegal immigrants with no love or 91 00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: loyalty to this nation. And remember, this is the same 92 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: illustration who says things to you about coronavirus all the time. 93 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: They're very, very worried about coronavirus, coronavirus this, and coronavirus that. 94 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: And yet even they're having to admit the level of 95 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: disease with these illegal immigrants coming into the country. It's 96 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: twenty percent, it's higher. We've got tuberculosis outbreaks, measles outbreaks. 97 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: It's really really bad. But that's Afghanistan, that's the border. 98 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: Those things are critical, and they may be winners. Both 99 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: of those, maybe winners. As far as Joe Biden's biggest 100 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 1: blunders go, the economy, though that's the one you're feeling 101 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: at the moment. I know you are, because I am 102 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: was filled up my truck last night with gas and 103 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: I'm just sitting That took me a second and then 104 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: it popped in. Oh. That's why that final number when 105 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: you're thinking, okay, ouch, that hurt. You're seeing it all 106 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: over the place. Joe Biden walks into office. First thing, 107 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: oil and gas lees is gone, Keystone pipeline gone, gas prices. 108 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 1: Now through the roof you're seeing the massive printing of money, 109 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: unemployment benefits, paying people not to work. And not only 110 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: is the debt problem bad, they're trying to pass a 111 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: gigantic bill in claiming the debt means nothing. We talk 112 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: about price tags. It is zero price tag on the 113 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: debt we're paying. We're going to pay for everything we spend. 114 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: So they say it's not you know, people understandably. Well, 115 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: you know it started off at six trillion, Now it's 116 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: three point five trillion. Now it goes they're going to 117 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: be two point nine, it's going to be zero zero. 118 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: Because in that plan that I put forward, and I 119 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: said from the outset, I said, I'm running to change 120 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: the dynamic of how the economy grows. I'm tired to 121 00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: trickle down. The trillionaires and billionaires are doing very very well. 122 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: Never mind the disgusting communist class warfare thing there, and 123 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: never mind the three point five trillion dollar bill. When 124 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: he says paid for, how sick is it? What he's 125 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: talking about is it's paid for, because I'm going to 126 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: bleed the American taxpayer drive for three point five trillion 127 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: dollars to pay for all my goodies. And remember that 128 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: great Thomas Soul what he had to say about trickle 129 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: down economics. There is a non existent theory that is 130 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: constantly being attacked. Some years ago in my newspaper column, 131 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: I challenged anybody to cite any economists out tide of 132 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: an insane asylum who had ever made that argument. Nobody 133 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: ever ever came up with a single person. When I 134 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: put this out and I went out nationally sending click 135 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: gated column, various people wrote to me and said, well, 136 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: so and so said that, So and so said it, 137 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: Find me the person who said it. I don't want 138 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: to hear how A said that. B said find me 139 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: B and show me where he said it. And that 140 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: was years ago. Not one example has been offered, man, 141 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: I love that guy. I love that guy. How great 142 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,839 Speaker 1: is that? So it's a laundry list of problems for 143 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. We're gonna We're gonna tackle wall in tonight. 144 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: We'll see who the winner is, who is what is 145 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: the worst thing he's done. It's gonna be a great 146 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: show for you. Coming up next, Drew Burkewist, our first 147 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: contestant talking about Afghanistan. Hang on joining me now, former 148 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: counter terrorism agent and current host of This is My 149 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: Show with Drew Burkewist. Drew Burkewist, Drew, it's tough to 150 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: sort out Joe Biden's worst disasters. You say it's Afghanistan. 151 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: I don't know that I can argue with, but make 152 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: your case, sir, Well, thanks for having me, Jesse, Yeah, 153 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: I mean it is. Look, there's a lot to compete 154 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: with here, but I think that Afghanistan is on a 155 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: number of levels right first and foremost, this was something 156 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: that I know we wanted to get out of, but 157 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: as we've talked about even on your show, the way 158 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: that it was done was so epically bad that none 159 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: of us who've spent exhaustive time in that country could 160 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: have ever come up with a scenario that looked this bad. 161 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: So I think I think it's a multitude of things. 162 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: But first and foremost, you've abandoned and betrayed twenty years, 163 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: two decades worth of warfighters who in some cases gave 164 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: it all, but all of us and our families who've 165 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: put so much into that. To spit in the face 166 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: of those people that were tasked by this government by 167 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: now him running this government and the way that they 168 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: did it was horrible. So you've done that. You've disenfranchised 169 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: and disenchanted a lot of Americans and a lot of 170 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: families who just support our war fighters in the veteran 171 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: and intel community. So that's a big issue. But also 172 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: what you've shown is you've shown weakness in an aptitude, 173 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: and it's killing our relationships around the world. We've got 174 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: allies who are talking openly as well as behind our backs, 175 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 1: talking about what happened to America, what happened to this 176 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: country that we could rely on and lean on, who 177 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: has essentially said, now we're just going to hand the 178 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 1: keys to a terrorist organization, not just one, but several. 179 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: In fact, we're going to give them more weapon, more weapons, 180 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: more territory, more money, more power, and authority than they've 181 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: ever had before, and we're going to legitimize them on 182 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: top and claim that we have leveragement. In fact, we don't, 183 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: because if we did, and we could, certainly, we would 184 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: have done something, and we would have done it all 185 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: different than this. So it's it's killing us there, and 186 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: then on top of it, it's making us our partners 187 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: both abroad and here at home less safe. True, Why 188 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: why is this happening? Because this seems like this is 189 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: part two of the Obama presidency where he came in 190 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: and he pretty much gave the proverbial middle finger to 191 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: all of our allies and extended a hand to all 192 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: of our enemies. Why what am I missing? Well, look, 193 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: it's Bidi's the Obama administration. The one thing that I 194 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: saw just perpetuate over his eight years, and I served 195 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: under all eight of his years overseas, mostly in Afghanistan, 196 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: some in Iraq. And the difference with him versus so 197 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: many other leaders that we've had in our country. We look, 198 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: we've had some good ones, we've had some bad ones. 199 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: Is that administration and we're seeing it now in what 200 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: a lot of would call his third term with Joe 201 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: Biden is they are ashamed of America. They always set 202 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: up these deals that they say are in the best 203 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: interest of our people, our country back home, when in 204 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: fact we see that its case and point. You don't 205 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: have to look hard or far to see every time 206 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 1: that we get screwed in these deals, other people, usually 207 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: nefarious actors, come out on top. Look at Iran under Obama, 208 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: look at so many other places under Obama, and now 209 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 1: you see everyone here too, And it's because they're ashamed 210 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: of America. They don't actually love America. They'll say, oh, 211 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 1: we love our troops, and God bless the troops, and 212 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: God blessed this country, but it's a country that all 213 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: their policies time and time again show they are trying 214 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: to destroy. So we can say this was a blunder 215 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: in it was, and we can say this shouldn't have happened, 216 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 1: and it shouldn't have, but it all seems to be 217 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: very purposeful based on these people and their track records. Drew, 218 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: You've talked about this before on the show, but a 219 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: lot of people they don't understand fully. To be honest, 220 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: I don't understand fully Pakistan. Why is Pakistan so intimately 221 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: connected to Afghanistan. Why is Pakistan so important and why 222 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: are they nutso? Well, they're very nutso, and we're nutso 223 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: for giving them so much money, billions over such a 224 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: long period of time, and we've given that money to 225 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: a power that we're trying to say, hey, there and 226 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: there are Look, there's good people everywhere, right, and there's 227 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,719 Speaker 1: some good people in the Pakistani government. But what we're 228 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: trying to do is keep the peace there with the 229 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: region with as volatile as it is of course, with 230 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: them in India and Kashmir, we've got, you know, if 231 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: Afghanistan where we've been heavily involved for decades upon decades 232 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: now we've got Iran on the other side of that, 233 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: so it's a volatile region. We want to keep the 234 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: peace there, We want to keep them in check. But 235 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: the problem is is we never ever really have. They've 236 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: just used and abused us. We've given them tons of 237 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: money which they've turned around and given to Hakani and 238 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: other nefarious actors to then go literally kill us. We're 239 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: literally paying them to cut us out at the knees 240 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan and kill our service members and our allies. 241 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: So it's made no sense. But We've always been scared 242 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: to call them out on the carpet and say, you 243 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: know what, We're just going to stop doing this until 244 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: you stop doing what you're doing. And as a result, 245 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: we have lost. They've won now, the Taliban, the Hakani Network, 246 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: al Kaya iss K, and probably a dozen other groups 247 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: have all won in this process. China's won in this process. 248 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: But the one thing that remains true is that America lost. Okay, 249 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: why when it comes to Pakistan, why have they been 250 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: able to abuse us so badly? I mean, there is 251 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: nobody who are all the people setting the policy aware 252 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: they're being abused? But what are we scared of if 253 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: we tell Pakistan nope, no more until you start acting, right, 254 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: what are we scared of? Well, I don't know if 255 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: it's because they're a nuclear power, you know, and we're 256 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: scared that they're going to leverage that and say, okay, well, 257 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: big brother America is not watching us, which you know, again, 258 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: we're watching them, but we're not doing anything. So are 259 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: we really watching them? Is the question at hand? But 260 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: I don't, you know, there's that and again the instability 261 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: that they sew in the region. I think we want 262 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: to feel as though and policymakers want to feel as though, hey, 263 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: we're doing something to keep them happy, keep them on 264 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: our side. They do give us stuff in return, whether 265 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: it's you know, airspace, whether it's access to this, whether 266 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: it's our embassies and different operations in the region, what 267 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: have you. But again we lose every time. And yes, 268 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: the policymakers know about this. Yes, leadership at the different 269 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: agencies know about this. They can see I mean the 270 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: amount of reporting that just I know of and was 271 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: a part of, which is just a pin prick, you know, 272 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: being one person who served over there, that documents in channels, 273 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: in official channels, what they're doing with this money, how 274 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: this is going, how they how they've used and abused us, 275 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: used and abused our funds and resources. It's it's absolutely insane. 276 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: So someone's making out somewhere on our side. Who it 277 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: is and why it is is tbd. But everyone is aware, 278 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: and yet we continue to play the same dangerous game. True, 279 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: can you explain what Afghanistan is going to look like 280 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: or at least make a prediction on what it's going 281 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: to look like? In Okay, let's call it five years. 282 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: Maybe it's a year, maybe it's a month. Clearly Taliban. 283 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: They're going to be fighting with the Northern Alliance, but 284 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: that's not going very well. But then when they're all 285 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: done with that, you still have a bunch of tribes 286 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: that are not exactly going to sign up. You have 287 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: isis you have al Kaeda. What does this place look 288 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: like in five years? Well, I think it's going to 289 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: look tribal like it always has. Right, this has always 290 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: been a very tribal country. It's always been a country 291 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: with conflict. So you're going to continue to see that. 292 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: It's just going to escalate because again, you're not going 293 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: to have a government that can bring stability. And that's 294 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: not to say that Afghanistan's been the poster child for 295 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: stability over the years. It obviously hasn't been. But you're 296 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: going to have all these tribes. You're gonna have in fighting, 297 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: which we're already seeing. You're seeing the Hakani Taliban fight 298 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: the Taliban who's in cobble in quote quote in power. 299 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: You're seeing the Kandahari Taliban who's upset with the way 300 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: that the Hakani's and some of the folks in Kabbal 301 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 1: are doing business. So they're they're fractured and splintered right there. 302 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: Yet they still have the same goal of going after 303 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: the West, you know, instilling Sharia law and all all 304 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: of this, which is happening and going on now. But 305 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: it's going to be lots of infighting. It's going to 306 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: be lots of battling. And I think you're going to 307 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 1: see some some quote unquote progress, you know, on infrastructure 308 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: and stuff like that, because China is going to get 309 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 1: in there. They already are involved indirectly through Pakistan, somewhat 310 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: directly through Kabble, and their goal, of course is to 311 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: protect their border to the north. Their goal is to 312 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: get you know, the lithium and to get the rare 313 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: earth minerals out of there. And what's going to be 314 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: interesting to see is whether it's all out chaos, just 315 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 1: war and a huge safe paven for terror, which again 316 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 1: it already is right now, or whether the Chinese come 317 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: in and other outside countries and say you've got to 318 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 1: slow down on that a little bit, You've got to 319 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: keep some of this in check. We're not. We don't 320 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: expect you to keep it all in check, because we 321 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: want to be safe and we want to get what 322 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: we want out and maintain some credibility. But the bottom 323 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: line is as chaos is what you're going to see, 324 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: violence is what you're going to see. The videos that 325 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: I see from people on the ground already on a 326 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: daily basis are shocking and disturbing, and I think we 327 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: can expect a lot more of that in the years 328 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: to come. Drew, is China going to be the one 329 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,719 Speaker 1: running things in that place for real? Or are they 330 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: just going to kind of suck out of there whatever 331 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 1: they can as far as minerals and things goes, I 332 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: think it's more of the ladder. I think that it's 333 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 1: going to appear they're going to try to be hey, 334 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: we're someone who can come in, you can count on us, 335 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 1: We're going to help you. But really what it is 336 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: is what they do all over the globe. They go in, 337 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 1: they abuse people, get what they need in return, and 338 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: back out again. I don't think they're going to care 339 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: about tamping down on extremism too much in the region 340 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: other than the parts where they are with the efforts 341 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: that they're doing again extracting these minerals getting what they 342 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: need out of it. Sure, maybe they'll do some infrastructure 343 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: and return, but it's not going to be like Hey, 344 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 1: we're going to come in and nor should anyone. We're 345 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: going to come in and nation build. We're going to 346 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: come in and help govern like we did for the 347 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: last two decades. It's not gonna look like that, but 348 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: they are, make no doubt about it. They're going to 349 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: get out of that country what they want out of it, 350 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: and they're going to try to make us bad look 351 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: bad along the way. Drew, thank you so much, my man. 352 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me. All Right, we'll be bad. Who's 353 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: the winner the look? That's a long list of scandals 354 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: and disasters for Joe Biden, But I've got to say 355 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: I like Charles Marino's subject here because I think he 356 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: might end up being the winner in the clubhouse. He 357 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: is the former Homeland Security Department advisor and former Secret 358 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: Service special agent. Gosh that school. I wish I could 359 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: call myself a special agent, Charles. What's Joe Biden's worst disaster? Jesse, 360 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: hands down, it is the border. It is the most 361 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: immediate threat to our national security, and it's going to 362 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: impact everything. It's going to impact local communities, it's going 363 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: to impact the economy in terms of having to support 364 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: all of these migrants that are being let into the country. 365 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 1: Let's look at the numbers. One point five million encounters 366 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: so far this year. Let's bring that up to two 367 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: million conservatively if you include the getaways. The amount of 368 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 1: stress that this is going to put on our local 369 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: communities in terms of public safety, health and medical, you 370 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: name its, schooling. I mean, it's just unbelievable. And then 371 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 1: again back to our national security, the big question is 372 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: who are these people that were letting in? Who are 373 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: these people Charles? Because look, when you when you talk 374 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: to these border patrol guys, which obviously is something you 375 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: do often, my buddies tell me it's not it's not 376 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: just haiting, you know, it's it's not it's not Guatemala. 377 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: It's it's it's all over the world. They're coming through there, 378 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: and I mean all over the world, and nobody seems 379 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: to be able to assess who these people are because 380 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 1: there are ones who do want to get caught, and 381 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 1: then there are ones who very much do not, and 382 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: there's a lot of those getting through too. Yeah, the 383 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: numbers are at thirty percent again conservatively, are coming from 384 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: around the world. That means that they're coming from locations 385 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:29,199 Speaker 1: not including Mexico and Central America. We've seen this with Haiti. 386 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: They've relocated to Latin America, Central America years ago, and 387 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,360 Speaker 1: now the word is out there's no deterrent for our borders. 388 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: The words out it's open borders. Now is the time 389 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: to come. So you have, for in the example of Haiti, 390 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 1: you have these migrants that have relocated years ago now 391 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 1: making their try to get into the United States, and 392 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 1: because there's no deterrent, it is not going to stop. 393 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 1: So if we look at from day one of this administration, 394 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: how this country has been threatened most immediately, it is 395 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: most certainly, hands down the border crisis. Charles, the Haiti thing, 396 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: I think, Look, there's been so many disasters and scandals 397 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: that we don't have time to dwell enough on each one. 398 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: But it really is staggering to me that fourteen thousand 399 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: people can amass on the border of a nation and 400 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: we just let them in. So of course there's going 401 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: to be another one we already have where there's twenty 402 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: thousand more coming. Why wouldn't they the last fourteen thousand 403 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: just waltzed into the country. What this is not sustainable? 404 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: Where are we putting these people? By the way, Yeah, 405 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: we're sneaking them into communities around the country, unbeknownst to 406 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: elected officials and local citizens in those communities, which is 407 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: disingenuous and dangerous at most. But what we have here 408 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: is we have an overall failure of policy with no 409 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: overarching strategy from day one. And what this has caused 410 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: is it's placed the citizens here in this tree in danger, 411 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: and it's also endangered those people that are making this 412 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 1: dangerous trek. Let's not forget the humanitarian crisis. What happens 413 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 1: during this journey. We're talking about rapes of women, abuse 414 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: of children, people dying. They're coming through very dangerous terrain. 415 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: And all of the money, by the way, based on 416 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: our policies, is funding the cartels. They have made billions 417 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: of dollars since this crisis has begun, based on our policies. 418 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: So here we are supporting a transnational criminal organization who's 419 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: sneaking people into our country for purposes. We just don't know, Charles, 420 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: how am I supposed to take this as anything other 421 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: than intentional, I mean, a failure of policy. You call it. 422 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: This looks intentional. I mean you have to intentionally screw 423 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: up this bad to let this many people inside your borders. No, 424 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: it is intentional. I mean, let's look at how the 425 00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: administration is turning on CBP based on their acts down 426 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 1: in Del Rio. Listen, it's not like they don't like 427 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 1: the just the optics of what they saw you with 428 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 1: the CBP officers on horses. They just don't like the 429 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: optics of the border being enforced at all. So this 430 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: is purposeful for what reason, I don't know. There are 431 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: some guesses about it. Maybe to turn the electoral map 432 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,959 Speaker 1: upside down, possibly, but this is nothing good for our 433 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: national security. This is the way we got beat pre 434 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,159 Speaker 1: nine to eleven. We got beat through our immigration and 435 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: visa programs, and we're setting ourselves up for failure. Shortly 436 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: after the twentieth anniversary of September eleventh, Charles, can you 437 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 1: give me before we get to the economic stuff, which 438 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: I'll get to in a second, can you give me 439 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: some window into the life of say one of these Haitians. 440 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: All Right, that they get in here, they get turned loose, snderstand. 441 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: Oftentimes they get taken to a charity of some kind 442 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: and then dropped at a hotel or something, and then 443 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: of course they disperse. Most likely they're going to find 444 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: some Haitian community here and do what they can get 445 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: jobs apparently, yeah, they can get jobs. They're in here 446 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 1: while they're awaiting. They're given a notice to appear, which 447 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: the majority of which, as we know, never show up 448 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: for their immigration hearings. So they're here for the long haul. 449 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: And as long as the administration doesn't make their removal 450 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 1: a priority, ie, if they're here and don't commit crimes, 451 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 1: they're never going to be removed by ICE. So ICE 452 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: has been significantly limited in what they could do by 453 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: the administration. So nobody's getting deported. You know that overarching 454 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: number two million people, only three percent are being deported 455 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: under Title forty two, which is only a CDC mechanism. 456 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: So imagine if we didn't have a pandemic right now, Jesse, 457 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: nobody would be getting removed. Fellas explain what Title forty 458 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: two is again, Yeah, so Title forty two is what 459 00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: was implemented by the CDC to help owner the spread 460 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: from outside the United States of COVID nineteen. And what 461 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: we're seeing at is we're not seeing Title forty two 462 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:12,959 Speaker 1: being applied consistently by the administration. The most that are 463 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: being impacted by Title forty two are single adult mails. 464 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: But if you come in as part of a family 465 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: package and they're not even testing for COVID nineteen, None 466 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: of those Haitian migrants that came into Del Rio were 467 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: tested for COVID protocols. And that's based on the word 468 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: of the Secretary of Homeland Security. So they've put that 469 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: title forty two. They've put the pandemic on the back burner. 470 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: They're only using it really in a few cases, three 471 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: percent of the cases for single mails, and they're turning 472 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: them around. So the single mails, what are they doing 473 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: If CBP is surging to areas like Del Rio, they're 474 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: beating the system by going further down on the border 475 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: where there are no resources there to stop them. All right, Charles, 476 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: you brought it up earlier. People don't talk enough about 477 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: the economic impact of flooding your country with illegal immigrants. 478 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: Would you elaborate on that please, So the left will 479 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: argue that listen to migrants that we're letting into the 480 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: country while they're awaiting their illegal immigration hearings, that they're 481 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: spending money in communities that is in no way going 482 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: to offset the amount of money that the government is 483 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 1: going to spend through schooling, through healthcare, you name it, 484 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: through emergency services, through social services, through things like welfare, 485 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 1: food stamps. Right, and they're also let's forget, they're not forget. 486 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: They're also sending the majority of money that they earn 487 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: outside of the United States, the family that have remained 488 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: in places like Mexico and Central America. So the money 489 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: that they make is not flooding the economy as some 490 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: would lead us to believe, and we are spending far 491 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: more than we are taking in Charles, people don't talk 492 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: enough about the impact of schools and hospitals. These hospitals, 493 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: especially hospitals along the border. I used to witness it. 494 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: I used to live down there. The ers would be 495 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: full because illegals simply use the ars as their family doctor. 496 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 1: And then people don't talk about the burden on these 497 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: hospitals who don't get paid. That's right, No, that's right. 498 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: I mean emergency rooms become the de facto primary care 499 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: physicians for these illegal migrants, and we pay the bill 500 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: for that. They have no healthcare. They usually don't have 501 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,719 Speaker 1: enough money to cover even showing up one hundred and 502 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: fifty dollars fee or more to even be seen before 503 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: you get diagnosed. So this just puts a big stream 504 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: on our communities here, and let's talk about policing. You know, 505 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: we're also going to see a rise in local crime. 506 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: We're going to see additional stress on law enforcement agencies. 507 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: That many of the big cities that these people are 508 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: going to go to are also trying to defund their 509 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: police departments at the same time while they're dealing with 510 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 1: the immigration search and one consistent factor, Jesse, they're all Democrats, 511 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: Charles Marino, Charles, thank you so much, but man, I 512 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: appreciate it. All right. Thanks, good to see you, Jesse. 513 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: We have the great Carol Roth. Next, she has her 514 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: own scandal she thinks is number one. Hang on, there's 515 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: been a lot of disasters during the past eight nine months. 516 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: I know the disaster number one happens to be in 517 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 1: the White House, and there seems to be some disagreement 518 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: on the right over exactly which is his biggest disaster. 519 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: So joining me now, obviously she's well known on this show, 520 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: author of the War on Small Business. My friend Carol 521 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: Roth joins me. Carol, what is Joe Biden's biggest disaster 522 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: in your opinion? So obviously it's always all about the 523 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: money and Joe Biden is the biggest economic disaster that 524 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: we have seen in a very long time. Now, I 525 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: am a fair individual, Jesse, if nothing else, I think 526 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: you would agree with that. So he did walk in 527 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: to a bad situation, and he had this opportunity to 528 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 1: turn things around because the vaccine was coming out, people's 529 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: bank accounts were doing pretty well, there were a ton 530 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: of jobs available. And what does this genius do. He 531 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: doubles down on bad policy amidst all of this. The 532 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: first thing that they do is the American Rescue Plan, 533 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: almost two trillion dollars in additional spending going to cronies, 534 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 1: throwing out Biden bucks. So he can say he gave 535 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,959 Speaker 1: you back your own money, but most people don't realize that. 536 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: So that puts a lot of additional money and pressure 537 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: on prices in the economy. He tended the unemployment benefit 538 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: situation that was set to expire last March, increased or 539 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: excuse me, extended the unemployment bonuses that incremental three hundred 540 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: dollars on top of traditional unemployment to keep people out 541 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: of the workforce. And the outcome of all of this 542 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: is the stuff that we're paying for every day. We 543 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: don't have enough people to fill the jobs in the 544 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: labor market. There are almost eleven million jobs unfilled. The 545 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: supply chains entirely messed up. There's an increase in prices, 546 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: so people are paying more and getting less, and for 547 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: the poor and for the middle class, inflation is a 548 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: tax that nobody talks about. On top of that, think 549 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: about things like gas prices going up. Well, this genius 550 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: in the White House came in. What's the first things 551 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: that he does. He canceled leases on cancels oil and 552 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: gas pleases. Side that we're not going to continue to 553 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 1: build a pipeline. And the worst part is that the 554 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: scariest financial policies are yet to come, trillions and trillions 555 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: of additional dollars that are moving us further away from 556 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: pre markets towards socialism. So that is the biggest blunder. 557 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: We're going to get to the future in a moment. 558 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: But you said he inherited a bad situation. We don't 559 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: pull punches on this show. What is the bad situation 560 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: specifically he inherited it and why did he inherit it? 561 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: So from the last administration, Congress, and the Federal Reserve 562 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty saw the most historic transfer of wealth from 563 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: main streets to Wall Street in history. It shut down 564 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 1: smaller businesses and let that revenue go to bigger businesses. 565 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: It pumped trillions of dollars into the market to prop 566 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: up big businesses. It allowed were interest rased to stay 567 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: artificially depressed, and so if you were a retiree or saver, 568 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: you were earning next to nothing on your money. But 569 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: big companies were able to borrow cheaply and go out 570 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: and compete not only with other businesses in the market, 571 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: but with individuals to purchase homes and the like. And 572 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: this was all the roots of creating not only this 573 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: wealth transfer, but the pressure that is coming out in inflation. 574 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: So you know he did inherit that that happened before 575 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: he walked in. But again he could have stopped it. 576 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: He could have said, okay, well now we're going to 577 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: return to normal, but chose not to do that. All right, Carol, 578 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: Since as long as you're sitting here scaring the pants 579 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: off of everybody what's coming? You mentioned what's coming? Because 580 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,239 Speaker 1: it ain't great right now? What's coming? So we have 581 00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: trillions in trillions of additional spending that we are being 582 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: told is quote unquote paid for. Of course, none of 583 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: this is paid for. They're making the assumptions that they 584 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 1: will be able to raise taxes and that that won't 585 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:15,720 Speaker 1: have economic impacts. They're doing things like tricks in terms 586 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: of timing. So they're saying this is the ten year costs, 587 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: but they're phasing in a program maybe a few years later, 588 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: or bringing some of it on later, or only doing 589 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 1: it for two years and then you're gonna have to 590 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: vote for it for the other eight years. So they're 591 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: doing all kinds of tricks. And these are all things 592 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: that encourage big government and big special interests and take 593 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: away the economic freedom from the individual and will make 594 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: it more difficult for individuals to create and hold onto wealth. 595 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 1: And so that is what's coming. Obviously we're already seeing 596 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: the effects, as I said, in inflation in terms of taxes. 597 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: They want to double down, they want to spend more, 598 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: they want human in the way that they see fit, 599 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: and the way that they see fit is going to 600 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: benefit the people who are inside of the club and 601 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 1: not the average American, even though they sell it the 602 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 1: other way. Carol, inflation, I know we talked about this 603 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,840 Speaker 1: a lot, but shooting I got it from my wife yesterday, 604 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 1: got back from that, she got back to the grocery stores. 605 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,720 Speaker 1: It's like, well, I don't understand. Why is everything costing 606 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,800 Speaker 1: so much more and you think that's going to continue 607 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 1: to get worse. Why what does that have to do 608 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: with interest rates? Right? So basically there's this all this 609 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: interconnection in terms of the money that has been printed 610 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: and the money that has been transferred from the government 611 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 1: I would have nowhere into people's pockets, or this is 612 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 1: money that they're making up that is a future debt 613 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: that we have to pay, and putting all of this 614 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,240 Speaker 1: money into the system, chasing the same amount of goods 615 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 1: and services, or in our case, sometimes fewer goods and 616 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: services because again we have these supply chain problems, so 617 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 1: people can't manufacture the same level of goods or have 618 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: the same number of people working to have the same output. 619 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 1: That creates price inflation, and it's done in one of 620 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 1: two ways. It's either direct price inflation, so you're paying 621 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,800 Speaker 1: more for the same thing, where they do something called 622 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 1: shrink inflation, where you're buying a box of cereal and 623 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: it looks the same, but when you open it up, 624 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: like only half the box is filled, and then you 625 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 1: look at the outside and you realize, oh, they've actually 626 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: cut the amount that's in the box, So you're still 627 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 1: getting less with the amount of dollars that you have. 628 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: And again that's attacks on the poor in the middle 629 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,280 Speaker 1: class because they're the ones who are spending. The asset 630 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: value or the prices of assets keep going up in value. 631 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: So if you're somebody who is an investor who has 632 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 1: access to cheap debt for investing and has a lot 633 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 1: of hard assets and it's going to continue to buy assets, 634 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: those are going to increase in value value, so you're 635 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 1: not having the same level of bad outcomes. Even though 636 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 1: this does impact everyone, it just impacts them in a 637 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: different way. So rich people are going to get richer 638 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 1: during an economic downturn, and poor and middle class people 639 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: are going to see their standard of living lowerd Do 640 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 1: I have that about rights. Absolutely. As I said, this 641 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: is all about central plannings about being in the club. 642 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 1: If you are in the club, but who's in the club. 643 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: The people in the power circle, the people who have money, 644 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: they are going to end up making out very well 645 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: and the people who aren't will not. And unfortunately that 646 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: is not economic freedom. That is not the American dream, 647 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: and they are just absolutely killing it. Carol. Are there 648 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: people in Washington, d C? Anybody, anybody who seems to 649 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,240 Speaker 1: understand finances? I mean, there certainly are a handful of people, 650 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 1: but they are few and far between. And unfortunately, everybody's 651 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: coming at this as sort of a party, you know, 652 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 1: a partisan matter. Europe, I just got my guy in charge, 653 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: If I just got my gallon charges, who's going to 654 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 1: fix it? But this really is a systemic issue. We 655 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 1: have seen an explosion in spending and the types of 656 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,360 Speaker 1: things that have been shifted to the government purview over 657 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: the last you know, several decades, and so it's not 658 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: something that's going to be fixed just by getting one 659 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: person in there. The system is rotten and the system 660 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: needs to be overhaulmed. How do we overhaul it? It 661 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 1: doesn't seem possible right about now. I'm following yearly Jesse. 662 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: You're supposed to have the answers to this, right you 663 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: start pull the valganization, you know, maybe you get to 664 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 1: the point where you have a Convention of the States 665 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: and they say we need to take back, you know, 666 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,240 Speaker 1: some of our purview. I think the first thing people 667 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 1: educated about the Federal Reserve, who has been a huge 668 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: piece of this because not only, as I said, are 669 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: they disrupting risk in the market and facilitating this transfer, 670 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 1: but they're enabling the bad government spending. When the government overspends, right, 671 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 1: who do they think is going to be there to 672 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: go out in the market and buy the debt that 673 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: they issue. It's not like other countries have all this money. 674 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: It's not like, you know, the investors are like clamoring 675 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: to get their hands done US government bond. The Federal 676 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: Reserve has been in the market buying them. They're monetizing 677 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: the debt. So if we got rid of that problem, 678 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: maybe put some pressure that could start it. But this 679 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: is a huge, huge issue, and unfortunately, once weak go 680 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: over that cliff, there's no coming back. So we've got 681 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 1: to stop it now. Roth, Thank you so much. What 682 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: did I win? You want? You want? Yes? She did good, Carol, 683 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:51,399 Speaker 1: she did good to please you and win. And maybe 684 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: can I get like a balloon out of it or 685 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 1: something you killed it. We'll get you a balloon with 686 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,760 Speaker 1: my face on it, Carol'll be the best gift ever. Perfect. 687 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, all right, we'll be back. Well, that was 688 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: a whole lot of blunder. I mean, that's a lot 689 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,720 Speaker 1: of blunder to squeeze in your first nine months as president, 690 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: but somehow Joe Biden has pulled it off. So what 691 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: is the winner? I told you the very beginning of 692 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: the show, my heart would say Afghanistan. I understand, I'm 693 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 1: very very biased there. I can't get those thirteen warriors 694 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,680 Speaker 1: out of my mind that they're dead. They're dead because 695 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: of Joe Biden. So I want to say Afghanistan. But 696 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,439 Speaker 1: the real truth is the biggest blunder is the one 697 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: we can't even feel fully yet. The biggest blunder is 698 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 1: the economy. It's the economy. And I know that's not 699 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: the sexy one, right. It's easy to talk about the 700 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants in Afghanistan and all that, but you've never 701 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: been part of a crashed economy. I've never been part 702 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 1: of a crashed economy. I don't know. I can't tell 703 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: you what it's like. I only know what I read 704 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 1: about in the history books. I watch documentaries about it, 705 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 1: and the way people describe how their entire life changed scary. 706 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 1: And we're heading there, and we're heading there really, really, 707 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: really fast, and the Biden administration seems to want to 708 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 1: get us there tomorrow. So the biggest blunder right now 709 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: is Joe Biden's economy. And I hope I don't turn 710 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,879 Speaker 1: out to be right, but when does that ever happen? 711 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: All Right, it's been a great special. I'll see you,
