1 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 1: Well, good evening, everyone, Welcome to Stinchfield. What historic times 2 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: we are living in. We have what I believe to 3 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: be the most strategic president in American history. When you 4 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: consider what is about to unfold, we could see the 5 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: Iranian regime fall, we could see the Venezuelan regime fall, 6 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: we could see the Cuban regime fall, all within the 7 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: next week. Why would this happen Because of the pressure 8 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: both economic and militarily, that President Trump has put on 9 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: these nations. Now to what's going on in Iran. By now, 10 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: all of this has been set up through the peace 11 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: through Strength motto that President Trump has coined. Because President 12 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: Trump means business. Everyone knows it. This is why we're 13 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: seeing success around the globe. Here's the commander in chief. 14 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: Iran wants to negotiate this. We may meet with them. 15 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 2: I mean it's a meeting is being set up, but 16 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 2: we may have to act because what's happening before the meeting. 17 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 2: But a meeting is being set up. Iran called they 18 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 2: want to negotiate. 19 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: Why would Iran want to negotiate? President Trump took out 20 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: their nuclear facilities. President Trump has put economic sanctions on 21 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: the lights they've never seen before. Their inflation is so 22 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: out of control, partly because President Trump is driving the 23 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: price of everything up. Because they can't get any goods 24 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: into their country. The currency is collapsing, and the people 25 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: are now fed up. By my count, it's about five 26 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety nine people, is what I'm reading. Is 27 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: the day toll. I believe the number could be much 28 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: higher than that. This is what's going on in Iran. 29 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: On those are bodies. The Iranian regime had opened fire 30 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: on many of the protesters there. I believe the numbers 31 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: will climb. We don't know a lot about this though, 32 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: because the Internet has been shut down. The Iranian regime 33 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: does not want any information getting to the people there 34 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: about support from other parts of the globe, specifically support 35 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: from President Trump. But the pressure is now on. So 36 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: the strikes of the nuclear sites, the economic sanctions, the 37 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: currency collapse, all of it is taking its toll on 38 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: the Iranian regime. And then you have President Trump announcing 39 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: today that anyone that buys goods from Iran sends goods 40 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: to a will pay a twenty five percent tariff to 41 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: the United States of America. What he's doing is sending 42 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: a message to the world, do not support Iran. Right now, 43 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: let the people have their freedom. I don't think you're 44 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: ever going to see these tariffs because nobody's going to 45 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: cross the United States right now. Here's President Trump against. 46 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: It looks like and there seemed to be some people 47 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: killed that aren't supposed to be killed. 48 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 3: These are violent. 49 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 2: If you call them leaders, I don't know if they're leaders, 50 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: are just they they rule through violence. 51 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 3: But we're looking at. 52 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 2: It very seriously. The military is looking at it, and 53 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 2: we're looking at some very strong options. We'll make a determination. 54 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: Every country across the globe is listening to President Trump 55 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: because President Trump is the first president to make it clear, 56 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: at least in my adult lifetime, that we can do 57 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: whatever we want when we want to. If President Trump 58 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: wants to go in and take out who knows what 59 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: critical infrastructure anywhere in any country, he could do it. 60 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: And nations are taking notice of this. Now, what about 61 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: the Iranian people as they rise up against the regime. 62 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: This is a woman who is from Iran talking about 63 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: what is happening in Iran. 64 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 4: Now it's essentially an apology. First, we made a mistake. 65 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 4: We want the Shah's son back, we want the crown 66 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 4: Prince Rezerpaklaviback. He will act as a transitional leader. He's 67 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 4: not coming as a dictator and authoritarian. He's coming back 68 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 4: as an interim leader to transition the country into democracy. 69 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 3: At that point, a referendum. 70 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 4: Will be opened up where the people will decide who 71 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 4: it is that they want to lead the country. 72 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: So they want the son of the Shah back. I 73 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: want to bring in now to discuss this. The Deputy 74 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: director of the National Council of Resistance of Iran US 75 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: Representative Office, Alireza Jeffrizzade, is with us.

The university has gotten involved. 90 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 5: The main chant in the streets is death to the dictator, 91 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 5: death to comedy, which is the super leader of the 92 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 5: Iran regime, Death to the oppressive, the Shaw or the 93 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 5: supreme leader. 94 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 6: Making it very clear that Iran is not going to 95 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 6: go backwards. 96 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 5: Iran is not embracing any form of dicator ship. They 97 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 5: want freedom the month, they want democracy, They want political pruralism, 98 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 5: the same way that the people of Iran overthrew the 99 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 5: Shaw because he had Slavak secret police Slovaki, He was 100 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 5: very brutal, he had a single party rule and was 101 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 5: so corrupt, the same way that the people now are 102 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 5: determined to end the rule of the clerics and see 103 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 5: democracy and political pruralism and freedom in Iran. 104 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,119 Speaker 6: Now the death row is so high. 105 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 5: According to the National Council of Assistance of Iran and 106 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 5: as President like Missus Mariiam Rajavi, as many as over 107 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 5: three thousand protestors have been exe been killed over the 108 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 5: past two weeks, and the actual number may be higher, 109 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 5: and this is as a result of the protests in 110 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 5: one hundred and ninety five cities. In all, thirty one 111 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 5: provinces of the country. The regime has used sheer repression. 112 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 5: This is crimes against humanity. As this is gradually described, 113 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 5: it saying the world now has the opportunity to act. 114 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: So I had made mention that I thought that six 115 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: hundred person death toll was grossly underestimated, and you're saying 116 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: that is true. And I hear the Iranian regime is 117 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: trying to say that it was terrorists that had come 118 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: in and killed them and they're not responsible for this. 119 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: I don't believe them, clearly. Ali Reza, well, the. 120 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 5: Irun regime is the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism itself, 121 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 5: is the major violator of human rights right here, and 122 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 5: it's killing people or whoever the intellectuals who are leading 123 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 5: they called for change in Iran. 124 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 6: This is a book, a thick book. In front of me. 125 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 6: You can see how thick it is. 126 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 5: It contains the names and particulars of twenty thousand members 127 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 5: of the baby Readian opposition, the emy K, that have 128 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 5: been killed by the Iranan regime. And the regime thought 129 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 5: that by killing the main organized opposition, they can kill 130 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 5: the movement for change. That has backfired. 131 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 6: You can see. You can see in the streets of Iran. 132 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,679 Speaker 5: The younger people, the young generation who are taking things 133 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 5: into their hands, they're not going to settle until there 134 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 5: is freedom in Iran. When you have a nation standing 135 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 5: up for freedom, but you have a nation very much 136 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 5: committed to ending the rule of clerics, no matter how 137 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 5: many people they kill, no matter what kinds of ups 138 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 5: and downs are going to occur. At the end of 139 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 5: the day, it's the people and their will and their 140 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 5: determination that will lead. And again, we have a history 141 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:52,479 Speaker 5: of one hundred years of fighting against dictatorship, fighting against despotism, 142 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 5: and this nation is very much you know, we have 143 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 5: ninety two million population. The people have nothing else to lose. 144 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 5: You know, Iran has the second largest oil and gases 145 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 5: there in the world, yet eighty percent of the population 146 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 5: leave below the poverty line. That's why they're taking things 147 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 5: into their hands. And you will see the continuation of 148 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 5: these efforts in different format shape. 149 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: Why now, you know, President Trump takes out the nuclear facilities, 150 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: the sanctions they put on Ran, the currency is collapsing. 151 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: I think all of those things lead to that. The 152 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: regime cuts off internet access for the people, so the 153 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: people probably don't even understand the support that President Trump 154 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: is now offering up for all of them. Why now, 155 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: why do they get the guts to do this now, 156 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,079 Speaker 1: in the face of all these people being killed and 157 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: they're still standing up. How do they do it? Well? 158 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,959 Speaker 5: You know, there is a history behind the nation, san 159 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 5: diegov as I mentioned, It dates back to over four decades. 160 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 5: And things don't just happen overnight, be you know, you 161 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 5: it takes a lot of time to build organization on 162 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 5: the ground, to build communications, to have a platform, to 163 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 5: maintain the you know, the unity of the organized opposition, 164 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 5: to have a clear platform for the fall of the Diatolas. 165 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 5: You know, missus Ragibi has declared that after the fall 166 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 5: of the Diatolas, there is a plan for transition, the 167 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 5: transition that within six months after the fall of the Diatolas, 168 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 5: there's going to be free and fair elections leading to 169 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 5: the formation of a National and Constituent Assembly that would 170 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 5: have the representatives of the people who would draft a 171 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 5: new constitution for the country, and Iran would be run 172 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 5: by the representatives of the people. No despots, no monarchs, 173 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 5: no clerics, none of that. And that's why when you 174 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 5: have this history of a nation standing up against the Diatolas, 175 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 5: those executions may put a temporary damp on things, but 176 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 5: it cannot stop it. Remember, in twenty twenty five, the 177 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 5: Irun regime executed over twenty two hundred prisoners, many of 178 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 5: them political prisoners, which is higher than any other time 179 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 5: since the new Supreme Leader came into power in nineteen 180 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 5: eighty nine. And yet you have seen these protests. So 181 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 5: and one let me just give credit to the work 182 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 5: that the International Committee is doing, including the United States, 183 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 5: is that the molas are used to having the policy 184 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 5: of appeasement. It was, you know, various administrations here and 185 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 5: in Europe constantly appeasing Dietolas, closing their eyes on their killings, closing. 186 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 3: Their eyes on THEIRS program and all of that. 187 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 6: That era has changed. 188 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: That era has changed under President Trump. There's going to 189 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 1: be no more appeasement of Iran. I think that has 190 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: become absolutely clear. We wish you and your people all 191 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: the success as you moved through this time. I think 192 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: Iran could fall literally any day. Ali Resad, thank you 193 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: for coming on today. 194 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 6: Thank you so much. All is the pleasure. 195 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: I appreciate that, absolutely, the pleasure is mine. Look, you've 196 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: got Iran about to collapse. Trump goes in and the 197 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: arrests Maduro in Venezuela. Venezuela could fold any moment, as 198 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: the Venezuelan regime now seems to be cooperating with President Trump. 199 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: The oil is everything, right, President Trump seizes the oil. 200 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: This is how strategic he is. Seizes the oil. Now 201 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: Cuba can't survive without the oil. So now Cuba is 202 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: on the verge of falling. This is our buddy, Tim 203 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: Burchett from Tennessee. 204 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 7: By Trump seizing that all and stopping the float of 205 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 7: Venezuela for the first time realistically in my life, we 206 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 7: have a chance of making the change in Cuba. The 207 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 7: most powerful thing we have is our military, as the 208 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 7: second most is our economic power. 209 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: And that's what Trump's going to use. And he'll do 210 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: it without firing a shot. It's amazing, really, and Cuba 211 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: is going to be squeezed. And all it took was 212 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: a commander in chief to have stones to put this 213 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 1: plan into play. Listen to President Trump. 214 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 8: What kind of deal are you looking more from Cuba? 215 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: You can find out pretty soon. We'll talk you to 216 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 2: Cuba and you'll find out pretty soon. And one of 217 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 2: the things I want to take it care of and 218 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 2: one of the groups. I want to taking care of 219 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 2: the people that came from Cuba that were force centered, 220 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: left under duress, and they're great citizens of the United States. 221 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: Right now, Can you imagine Iran is falling, Cuba is 222 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: in dire straits, Venezuela, I'll forget about it. Can you 223 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: imagine what is going through China's mind right now? These 224 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: were the countries that China was relying on to put 225 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 1: pressure on the United States, and they're crumbling right before 226 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: China's eyes. I want to bring in with me now, 227 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: thirty two year Air Force combat veteran and founder of 228 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: Gator Pak, Colonel Rob Mainez is with us. Colonel's great 229 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: to have you back on hey, Grint, and thanks for 230 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: having me. Grint, absolutely so, Colonel. Are you as amazed 231 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: as I am at the we're at the point in 232 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: time we're not just talking about one country and rogue 233 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: regime falling, We're talking about three and maybe even more. 234 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 9: Oh, it's phenomenal, you know. And the vision of piece 235 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 9: through Strength that President Trump and his team ran on 236 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 9: and we're reelected on is just the beginning of this. Look, 237 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 9: you know, all of these stories are linked, especially between China, 238 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 9: Iran and Russia to Venezuela, and the president when he 239 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 9: brings the oil to market, well, guess what. China buys 240 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 9: eighty percent of its oil from Venezuela. The President has 241 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 9: extreme leverage over them now. But Iran and Russia depend 242 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 9: on high oil prices to keep their regimes going. One 243 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 9: of the reasons why Iran is collapsing in on itself 244 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 9: economically is because those oil prices are continuing to come down. 245 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 9: And when that venezuel oil is brought to market by 246 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 9: the United States, those prices are going to go even lower, 247 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 9: and that's going to give the President leverage to get 248 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 9: Russia to move on the peace deal with Ukraine, which 249 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 9: has all but stalled at this point. 250 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: You know, it's amazing because we talk about neo cons 251 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: and we talk about isolationists. President Trump is neither one 252 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: of those. He just seems to do what's right at 253 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: the moment. That's in America's best interest, and it is 254 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: in America's best interest when we have a safer world 255 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: without these places. I know they'll be friends of mine 256 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: watching this program, members of Stinshield's army. They're going to say, 257 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: why are we getting involved in any of this, Can 258 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: you give them a good argument as to why we 259 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: should Colonel. 260 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 9: Well, this is actually very familiar. It should be to 261 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 9: anybody that knows American history. Granted, this is more like 262 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 9: Thomas Jefferson's foreign policy and national security policy than anything 263 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 9: we've seen really since then. 264 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: Except for now. 265 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 9: We are much greater power economically and militarily and from 266 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 9: an information perspective, and it's about our national interests. It's 267 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 9: in the national interests of the United States not to 268 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 9: have Venezuela bia hub for a Chinese essentially colonial power 269 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 9: in the Western hemisphere, which is why the Monroe doctrine is. 270 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: Now being brought back very aggressively. 271 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 9: It's within America's national interests not to have a super 272 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 9: highway for the ghost oil tanker fleet that's feeding and 273 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 9: helping Russia and Iran and China sell and buy the 274 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 9: oil between them. That's keeping their economies and their capabilities 275 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 9: to be aggressive to their neighbors going. It's within our 276 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 9: interests to acquire the ground of Greenland in order to 277 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 9: stop that super highway through the Arctic for those ghost 278 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 9: fleet of oil tankers. It's within the national interests of 279 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 9: the United States for Iran to be a free country 280 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 9: again that takes care of the Persian people that are 281 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 9: clamoring for freedom and not have an Ayatola or a 282 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 9: Shaw dictator over them. And that's what the Persian people 283 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 9: are looking for. I heard the NCRI Deputy directors interview 284 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 9: with you, and he's exactly right. The Iranian people deserve 285 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 9: freedom and an opportunity to create their own government that 286 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 9: is free and will enable them to live prosperously and 287 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 9: without fear of being murdered in the middle of the night, 288 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 9: no matter whether it's the Iatola's forces or the shas Sabak. 289 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 3: And that's what needs to happen here. 290 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 9: And the President of the United States sees all of this, 291 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 9: and he knows that it's in our interests to help 292 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 9: these situations come along and become successful. Because think about it, 293 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 9: over the last fifty years, since I was seventeen years 294 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 9: old as an E one in the United States Air Force, 295 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 9: the Iranian Mullahs have called us the Great Satan, and 296 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 9: I've been at war with us and have killed Americans 297 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 9: and friends of Americans and tens of thousands of their 298 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 9: own people. And it's time for it to end. And 299 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 9: we can get this job done because President Trump understands that. 300 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: What a great summation of why this is important, Colonel 301 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: Rob mainez is why we bring you on the program. 302 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: Fabulous work tonight. I appreciate you, my friend, thank you, 303 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: thank you, grin absolutely. And to think you know one thing, 304 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: little tiny bit that's not reported. President Trump said to China, 305 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: we'll get you all the oil you want. We'll get 306 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: you the oil from Venezuela. You'll be buying it from 307 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: US now. But how brilliant is that because in one 308 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: respects he makes friends with China, all the while China 309 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: knowing he can pull that oil anytime he wants. And 310 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: that's what you call a deal maker. Now on to 311 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 1: Jerome Powell. Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve chair, I am 312 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: now convinced is just playing dumb. This guy is feckless. 313 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: He's in it and he makes mistakes left and right. 314 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: He comes out with a video declaring that he is 315 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: under investigation by the DOJ. Now, it was not the 316 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: DOJ that leaked that Jerome Powell was under investigation for 317 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: lying to Congress and a grand jury has been summoned. 318 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: It was Jerome Powell who offered this video up, and 319 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: what does he do. He escalates the war between him 320 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: and President Trump. It is reckless. It could have had 321 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: an effect on the markets. I'm gonna tell you why 322 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: it didn't. In a second watched Jerome Powell. 323 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 10: The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the 324 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 10: Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment 325 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 10: of what will serve the public, rather than following the 326 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 10: preferences of the president. 327 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: Let me tell you what Powell was up to here 328 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: when he released that video. He wanted to sync the markets. 329 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: You think he cares about your four oh one k No. 330 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: All he wanted to do is hurt President Trump. But 331 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: here's the most amazing thing. The markets responded to day, 332 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: not negatively. The markets made record highs. Why because they're 333 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: seeing more and more that the Federal Reserve is basically 334 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: an unneeded entity and it's getting in the way of 335 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: President Trump's goal of making America great again and getting 336 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: us back on track economically through lower interest rates. They traders, 337 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: The markets want Powell out of the way. One more 338 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: clip from Powell. 339 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 10: This is about whether the Fed will be able to 340 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 10: continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions, 341 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 10: or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political 342 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 10: pressure or intimidation. 343 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: Now, the allegations against Powell or that he lied to 344 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 1: Congress over the renovations of the Federal Reserve office buildings 345 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 1: three of them. Did he lie to Congress? I don't know. 346 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: He may have. If he did, well, then he deserves 347 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: to be prosecuted. My gut reaction to this is he 348 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 1: didn't lie to Congress. He's just a dope. He's not 349 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: informed about things like this. He's inept, which is why 350 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,719 Speaker 1: you saw the cost overruns. He's a swamp creature, doesn't 351 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: care that the coster are overrunning, and he figures the 352 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: American taxpayer can pay for it. That's how swamp creatures think. Again, though, 353 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 1: if he lied to Congress, he needs to pay for it. 354 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: I would rather, though, see people like Fauci have a 355 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: grand jury summoned, people like US attorneys who prosecuted Jay 356 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: Sixers have a grand jury summoned. I could think of 357 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: so many areas federal agents that violated American citizens' rights 358 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: during the Biden era have a grand jury summoned. Jerome Powell, 359 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: I'd like to see him just go away and get 360 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: President Trump's picking there so we can get back to 361 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: the business of lowering interest rates. Remember this with Trump 362 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: and Powell. This was classic. 363 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 11: So we're taking a look and it looks like it 364 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 11: said about three point one billion, one up a little 365 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 11: bit or a love. So the two point seven is 366 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 11: now three point one. 367 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it just came out. 368 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, I haven't heard that from anybody's fat Let's just give. 369 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 6: I no set about three point one as well, three 370 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:18,959 Speaker 6: three point two. 371 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 3: This came from us. Yes, I don't know who does that. 372 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,719 Speaker 1: It literally is one of my favorite moments that President 373 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: Trump has offered us all up. Jerome Powell clearly furious 374 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: about that. So again, this is what it all stems from. 375 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: What the bottom line is. President Trump didn't know about 376 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 1: this investigation. It was referred to the DOJ by Anapoline Alona, 377 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: a member of Congress. When a member of Congress refers 378 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,719 Speaker 1: something to the DOJ, if there's evidence there that there 379 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: could be a possibility, it's the DOJ's obligation to investigate. 380 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: There has nothing to do with President Trump, no matter 381 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,360 Speaker 1: what the Left tells you. All right, a new year 382 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: means new financial goals, like making sure your savings are 383 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: secure and diversified. It's time to talk to someone from 384 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: Birch Gold group. There are forces pushing the dollar lower 385 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 1: and gold higher, which is why they believe every American 386 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: should own physical gold. So until January thirtieth, if you 387 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 1: are a first time gold buyer, Birch Gold is offering 388 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 1: a rebate of up to ten thousand on qualifying purchases. 389 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: To claim your eligibility and start the process, just text 390 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 1: America to the number nine eight nine eight nine eight. 391 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: Birch Gold can help your role in existing IRA or 392 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: four o one k into an IRA in gold and 393 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: you'll still be eligible for a rebate up to ten grand. 394 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: Text America to the number nine eight nine eight nine 395 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: eight to claim your eligibility today. All right, Antifa and 396 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: left wing lunatics create more chaos in Minnesota over the weekend, 397 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: and this time it hits home one of our own 398 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: right in the middle of it. We'll talk to him next. 399 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,719 Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone. What is happening in Minneapolis and beyond 400 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: is out of control. It really borderlines on ridiculousness quite frankly. 401 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: The people that are protesting rioting over this ice agent 402 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 1: shooting the woman who was running him over, Okay, not 403 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: trying to run him over, but was running him over. 404 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: It's craziness, these white liberal women. I hate to break 405 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: the news to them. There's zombies. Watch what happens here. 406 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm telling you people, they've lost their minds. These are 407 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: miserable human beings. They have nothing in their life, and 408 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: so I guess they take to the streets to try 409 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: to find something in their life. But this is really 410 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: quite pathetic. Okay, what happened and what is happening looks 411 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: to me like it's Antifa. It's well organized. Besides the 412 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 1: liberal lunatic woman you just saw there, Nick Sorder is 413 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: a great friend of this program. He's always right in 414 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 1: the middle of it. Watch what happened to him? 415 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 3: Get out of the way, Get out of the way. 416 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: Well, he's trying to get away from them. These guys 417 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: put themselves in tremendously danger This is the aftermath. They 418 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: put themselves in tremendously dangerous positions. This was the aftermath Vo. 419 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: Nine please of Nick's car. They literally try to just 420 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: destroy it, and they did a good job of it. 421 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: By the way, that's his vehicle. What did the man 422 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: do other than try to report the news as it's happening. 423 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 1: But they hate the truth. So they go after a 424 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: guy like Nick Sorter. Here's Nick again, and that Folks's 425 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 1: ice agents coming to the rescue of Nick sorder with 426 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 1: pepper balls, flash bangs. You name it to this band, 427 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: those merry band of lunatics. Well it wasn't just Nick. 428 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 1: This is happening all over the place.

Finished. 442 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 13: Last, let me tell you Operation deflect Somali Fraud is 443 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 13: in full effect in Minneapolis and we're in that Powderhorn 444 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 13: Park with twenty thirty thousand people. There wasn't a cop 445 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 13: on the ground. But before I get into that, our 446 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 13: cameraman Brandon was assaulted when I was with him for 447 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 13: a hamburger. So don't sit next to a bar or 448 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 13: in a restaurant next to this. My own rendition of 449 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 13: this ring nosed angry mom of two in front of 450 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 13: her kids through a drink. 451 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 6: In his face. 452 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 13: But we were stalked, like I said this morning, like 453 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 13: lions in the Serengetti advanced handheld radio communications and ice 454 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 13: whistles tracked us for two and a half miles through 455 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 13: the park and leaving, and we even called the police, 456 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 13: and the police never came. And we got in a 457 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 13: car and they were throwing ice chunks at our windows 458 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 13: and almost shattered all our glasses, and then they windows 459 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 13: and then they blocked our car in and we couldn't 460 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 13: get out. And if it wasn't for the quick thinking 461 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 13: of our cameraman, our security may have had to pull 462 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 13: their weapons. 463 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 3: It was very serious. 464 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: It was very serious, and these people are. 465 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 13: Violent and may A Fry is blaming Ice on the 466 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 13: violent behavior of the protesters. But I didn't see any 467 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 13: police officers there. And this launch they want this, they 468 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 13: want this. 469 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's amazing. You know, we chuckle about some of this, 470 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: but you had to have felt in danger, David, at 471 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,479 Speaker 1: this point, and no cops around. 472 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 13: What happened was it's like invasion of the body snatchers. 473 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,719 Speaker 13: Once they see you, they yell and scream in your 474 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 13: direction and they identify you. So there's this chain of 475 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 13: like point to point navigation. Don't let these guys out 476 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 13: of your sight. And they were around us, heckling us, 477 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 13: calling us Nazis, cursing we're fascist and all this stuff. 478 00:29:59,040 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 3: They don't even know. 479 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 13: Most of them didn't even know where we were from. 480 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 6: I didn't have a logo on my jacket, you. 481 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 13: Know, and so you know, these people are just zombies 482 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 13: and a zombie and apocalypse going on there. And you know, 483 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 13: shame on the Minnesota Police commissioner for not cooperating what 484 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 13: ICE like Berkwam says, because we wouldn't need to be 485 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 13: in the residential neighborhoods if they would cooperate. When these 486 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 13: people get picked up for other crimes and transferred over 487 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 13: to ICE, they want a civil war. 488 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 6: This is what they're pushing with. 489 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: Were well, it's so true, and praise Jesus that your 490 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: security did not have to pull their firearms. You know, 491 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: the federal agents, because the Supremacy Clause have some protection 492 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: from these lunatic prosecutors. But if a security guard protecting 493 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: a real America's Voice correspondent and his cameraman would have 494 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: pulled and god forbid, had to shoot a quote unarmed person. 495 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: They won't tell you that the rocks and the ice 496 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: and the cars they're driving are armed. It would be 497 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: game over. There'd be criminal charges against all of you guys, 498 00:30:58,400 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: and not the damn David. 499 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 8: Yeah. 500 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 13: Well, we were with Nick Sorda for a few hours 501 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 13: the day before and we brought them on camera when 502 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 13: we were live streaming on Socials, and you know, we 503 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 13: made a decision not to go back out that night 504 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 13: because you know, there wasn't any other media on the 505 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 13: ground really inside Powderhorn Park. There was like the me 506 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 13: MSM on the perimeter. 507 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: So yeah, so yeah, I lost her audio. 508 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 6: I lost the audio. 509 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 3: Those a part a dangerous situation. 510 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 12: It was. 511 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: We are so glad you're okay.

We got them cold busted. 536 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: They spell it out themselves. We'll show it to you. 537 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: Welcome back to everyone. I don't know if you have heard. Well. 538 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: Right now, we have Elon Musk that has taken the stage. 539 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: I believe he's at an event with Pete haig Seth 540 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: here in Texas in Brownsville. I believe Elon Musk will 541 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: be talking about getting Internet to the people of Iran 542 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: through starlink. Let's dip in and take a listen so 543 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: you can kind of see the epic stuff. 544 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 14: We're honored today to have a Secretary of War, Pete Hexeth, 545 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 14: and much of the senior leadership of the Pentagon here. 546 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 3: It's an honor to have them visit. 547 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 14: We just did a tour of the factory, and I 548 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 14: think this it really helps illustrate how manufacturing and manufacturing 549 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 14: at scale is critical to the strength of America. So, 550 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 14: and I'll tell you a little bit just about the 551 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 14: purpose of SpaceX. It's like, we want to make star 552 00:33:51,960 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 14: Trek real. Okay, we want to make Starfleet Academy real, 553 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 14: so that it's not always science fiction, but one day 554 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 14: the science fiction tends to science fact. 555 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:13,800 Speaker 1: All right, folks, We're going to keep an eye on that, 556 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 1: and we will take the Secretary of War when he 557 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: comes out, Pete Haikseth to talk. I do want to 558 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: talk about West Alice, West Milwaukee Public School District. They're 559 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: going back to diversity, equity and inclusion. Look at this 560 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: from their strategic plan. Okay, it reads all right, and 561 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: I'll read it here. Diversity increase diversity in the workforce 562 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 1: across Key demographic categories from ten percent in August twenty 563 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 1: twenty five to twenty five percent in August twenty thirty. 564 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,800 Speaker 1: Increase diversity in the workplace. This is exactly what we 565 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 1: don't want any more of. Well, I want to bring 566 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: in now the director of Protect the Public's Trust, Michael Chamberlain, 567 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 1: to the program. Michael, welcome. You guys are the ones 568 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,320 Speaker 1: that blew the whistle on this and are now suing 569 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: I believe over this. Explain what's going on. 570 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:09,919 Speaker 6: Well, thanks for having me on Grant. 571 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 15: I really appreciate it, and we're filing a We have 572 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,479 Speaker 15: filed a federal civil rights complaint against West Alice West 573 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 15: Milwaukee School District for their potential possible violations of civil 574 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 15: rights laws. As you pointed out there, they have numerical 575 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 15: targets for their goals of increasing the staff diversity that 576 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 15: they as they call it, and they put race based 577 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 15: hiring targets in their strategic plan and they elevated those 578 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 15: above teacher effectiveness. Now, this goes right back to the 579 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 15: discrimination against certain groups of people, impeding certain groups of 580 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 15: people against others that we're hopefully that we're trying to 581 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 15: get away from. 582 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: I hate to cut you off, but I'm going to 583 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: go out to Pete Haigseth and I apologize. Sometimes this 584 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: happened with breaking news. If you there, you go. Guys. 585 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: Let's go out and listen to the Secretary of War 586 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,439 Speaker 1: who is in Texas taking a tour of the tour 587 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:09,760 Speaker 1: of the SpaceX facility. 588 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 12: Continue our arsenal a freedom tour, and to outline today 589 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 12: the future of technological innovation at the War Department. Those 590 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 12: of you here at SpaceX will appreciate this. Knowing that 591 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 12: as World War II was ending, the Secretary of War 592 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 12: and Secretary of the Navy wrote to the National Academy 593 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 12: of Sciences and declared that scientific research was essential to 594 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 12: our national. 595 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 3: Security to ensure continued preparedness. 596 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 12: They wrote, the research scientists of the United States must 597 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,240 Speaker 12: be called upon to continue in peacetime some substantial portion 598 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 12: that of which they have made so effectively during the 599 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 12: stress of the present war. The competitive time element in 600 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 12: developing those weapons and tactics may be decisive in future conflict. 601 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,280 Speaker 12: You see, those Secretaries of War and Navy many decades 602 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 12: ago recognize the importance that innovation and readiness holds for 603 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 12: our national security. 604 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 3: They knew what was at stake the very freedoms of 605 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 3: the country we hold dear all across the United States. 606 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:23,760 Speaker 12: Today, extraordinary innovation is unlocking new possibilities for freedom. 607 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 3: Prosperity, and security. 608 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 12: Now, the question before us is not whether or not 609 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,240 Speaker 12: the most powerful technologies of this century will reinforce free societies. 610 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 3: Is it going to reinforce our free societies? 611 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:40,240 Speaker 12: Or will that technology be shaped and twisted by malign 612 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 12: regimes that seek to use those technologies for. 613 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 1: Control and coercion. 614 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 12: You see, over the past several months, I've talked at 615 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,839 Speaker 12: length about the challenges we face in transforming the War 616 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 12: Department to address current and future missions, all in service 617 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 12: of meeting the deeds of the twenty first century warfighter. 618 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 12: I'd like to think we've already made dramatic progress in 619 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 12: the Pentagon's culture by reviving the warrior ethos, and we're 620 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 12: moving out quickly and transforming our acquisition ecosystem as well. 621 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 12: But today is about how we supercharge innovation at the 622 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 12: word of Department for the era ahead. Innovation is happening 623 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 12: at a pace we can't even foresee, and we need 624 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:29,240 Speaker 12: the entire enterprise, our enterprise to embrace the urgency required 625 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 12: for this moment. Since the end of the Cold War, 626 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 12: the defense industrial base in our country has consolidated. This 627 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 12: makes it difficult, if not impossible, for new creators of 628 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:47,760 Speaker 12: technical innovations to win business at our department. The result 629 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 12: is a risk averse culture that prevents us from providing 630 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:56,280 Speaker 12: our warfighters with the best resources that America has to offer. 631 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 3: That ends today. Simply put, the United. 632 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 12: States must win the strategic competition for twenty first century 633 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 12: technological supremacy, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, quantum hypersonics, and long 634 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 12: range drones. If you talk to Elon Musk long enough, 635 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 12: he will tell you how important hypersonics and long range 636 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 12: drones are, and he's one hundred percent correct. Space capabilities, 637 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 12: directed energy, and biotechnology. 638 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 3: Are the new areas of global competition. 639 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 12: The challenge is that our legacy approach to technological development 640 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 12: assumes that technology moves into predictable linear conveyor belt from 641 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 12: lab to design to development, to prototype to test and 642 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 12: qualified a program of record and can only be provided 643 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 12: by a handful of companies that have consolidated dramatically. Now, 644 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 12: while this system provided us with the weapons that won 645 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 12: the Cold War, it is archaic and inconsistent with the 646 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,839 Speaker 12: novel threat environment that we face today. At its core, 647 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 12: this old approach has the hubrist assume that you can 648 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 12: easily predict the future, that you could foresee how an 649 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,800 Speaker 12: invention becomes a weapon in eight easy steps three decades 650 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:23,799 Speaker 12: from first discovery. Our system cannot keep treating innovation as 651 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 12: a decades long one way march that dramatically reduces who 652 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 12: and what is able to. 653 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 3: Run the gauntlet at our department to get the capability 654 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 3: to the warfighter. 655 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 12: Until this administration, the Trump administration, the department's process for 656 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 12: fielding new capabilities had become just one more post Cold 657 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 12: War peace dividend relic that is not kept up with 658 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:49,240 Speaker 12: the times. 659 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 3: Worse than that, we've. 660 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 12: Done nothing but add layer upon layer of committees and 661 00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 12: councils that coordinated but never decided. We created endless projects 662 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 12: with no accountable owners. We have high churn with little 663 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,760 Speaker 12: progress and few outputs. That sounds about like the exact 664 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 12: opposite of SpaceX. We treated innovation as a box to check, 665 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 12: not an outcome to deliver. In sure, when it comes 666 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 12: to our current threat environment, we are playing a dangerous 667 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:28,839 Speaker 12: game with potentially fatal consequences. We need innovation to come 668 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 12: from anywhere and evolve with speed and purpose. You see, 669 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 12: America's open scientific community is an advantage authoritarian regimes cannot replicate. 670 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 12: They can read our scientific papers and copy our invention 671 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,720 Speaker 12: or distill our al Ai models, but they cannot replicate 672 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 12: a culture like this, one of opened and distributed research. 673 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:54,799 Speaker 3: We need to be blunt here. We can no longer 674 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 3: afford to wait a decade for. 675 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 12: Our legacy prime contractors to deliver the next perfect system, 676 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 12: only to find that it's delivered years behind schedule and 677 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 12: cost ten times what it should. Winning requires a new playbook. 678 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 12: Elon wrote it with his algorithm question every requirement, delete 679 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 12: the dumb ones, and accelerate like hell. That's why I 680 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,800 Speaker 12: want to make clear across the War Department and for 681 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 12: our partners in the private sector that are Undersecretary of 682 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 12: War for Research and Engineering. 683 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 3: Emil Michael. 684 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 12: Right here in the front row is the War Department's 685 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 12: single Chief Technology. 686 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 3: Officer one CTO for the entire enterprise. Novel concept. 687 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 12: As the sole CTO, A Meal will set the technical direction, 688 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 12: lead the innovation ecosystem that will welcome. 689 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,720 Speaker 3: Progress from anywhere it resides. 690 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:58,320 Speaker 12: And he'll tell me face to face every day and frankly, 691 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 12: whether we are gaining or losing the technology. 692 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 3: And innovation competition. You'll have the decision. 693 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 12: Authority and will lead through rigorous evaluation with a focus 694 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 12: on real, measurable outcomes. 695 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 3: Now, Congress, and we have many members of Congress with 696 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 3: us here today, will be our partner in this. 697 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 12: By affirming the Undersecretary's role as the department's CTO, we're 698 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 12: carrying out the. 699 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 3: Core mission for RN that Congress assigned in statute. 700 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 12: The last Defense Bill expanded the CTO's authorities, including the 701 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 12: power to direct military departments and other components to align 702 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 12: around clear innovative outcomes. We will use them to deliver 703 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:44,799 Speaker 12: those outcomes with speed and urgency. An empowered CTO will 704 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 12: inject a disruptive mindset directly into our systems, directing the 705 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 12: power of America's world leading scientists and entrepreneurs, our cutting 706 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 12: edge labs, the tech ecosystem, and our capital markets to 707 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 12: build what the warfighter need, but to do so better, 708 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:02,880 Speaker 12: faster and cheaper. 709 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,919 Speaker 3: And Emil is the right man to do it. You see, 710 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 3: this isn't about military structure. 711 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,919 Speaker 12: This is about building an innovation pipeline that cuts through 712 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:19,240 Speaker 12: the overgrown bureaucratic underbrush and clears away the debris elon style, 713 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 12: preferably with a chainsaw. 714 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 3: And to do so at speed and urgency that meets 715 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:26,120 Speaker 3: the moment. 716 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 12: As I've said repeatedly to every audience, the President of 717 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 12: the United States. 718 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 3: And I have the backs of our warfighters who have 719 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 3: to make split. 720 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 16: Second life and death decisions on the battlefield. 721 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 12: And I want this audience to know that we also 722 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 12: have the backs of innovators who share that very same urgency. 723 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 12: American taxpayers, especially those parents whose sons and daughters have 724 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 12: answered the call to serve. 725 00:44:56,120 --> 00:45:00,720 Speaker 3: I swore in ten more today demand and I demand, 726 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 3: and we demand that. 727 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 12: We arm our warfighters with overwhelming and lethal technology right now, 728 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 12: not a decade from now. In modern warfare, the fastest 729 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:16,839 Speaker 12: innovator and iterator will be the winner, and no one 730 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 12: can out innovate an American entrepreneur who has been liberated 731 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 12: from the constraints of stifling bureaucracy. That old era ends today. 732 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 12: We are done running a peacetime science fair, while our 733 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 12: potential adversaries are running a wartime arms race. 734 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 3: Right now. 735 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 12: From garage startups to factory floors to boardrooms across our nation, 736 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 12: the question of how to harness innovation coming out of 737 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 12: America's AI ecosystem is front and center, and. 738 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 3: Rightfully so, because it has the potential to disrupt. 739 00:45:55,600 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 12: And transform every area of human endeavor. The same is 740 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 12: true in the Department of War. 741 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 3: President Trump's AI Executive Order spells out our approach succinctly. 742 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 12: It is the policy of the United States to sustain 743 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:16,240 Speaker 12: and enhance America's global AI dominance in defense of human flourishing, 744 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 12: economic competitiveness, and national security. 745 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 3: That, ladies and gentlemen, is the War Department's mission. 746 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 12: We must ensure that America's military AI dominance so that 747 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 12: no adversary can exploit that same technology to hold our 748 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:38,239 Speaker 12: national security interests or our citizens at risk. 749 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:44,800 Speaker 3: America first in every domain. Last month, I took. 750 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 12: The first step toward changing how the Department does business 751 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:51,480 Speaker 12: with frontier AI technologies when we announce the rollout of 752 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 12: Genai with our partners from Google, and I want to 753 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 12: thank the Google team for leaning forward and making the 754 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 12: investment to get their Gemini app to about. 755 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 3: Three million users in the War Department. 756 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:06,360 Speaker 12: But today we're excited to announce the next frontier AI 757 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 12: model company to join Genai dot mil and that is 758 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 12: GROC from XAI, which will go live later this month. 759 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 12: So I want to thank you Elon and your incredible 760 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,719 Speaker 12: team for leaning forward with us on this as well. 761 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 3: Very soon we will have the world's. 762 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 12: Leading AI models on every unclassified and classified. 763 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:32,840 Speaker 3: Network throughout our department. Long overdue. 764 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,839 Speaker 12: To further that, Today, at my direction, we're executing an 765 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 12: AI acceleration strategy that will extend our lead in military 766 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 12: AI established. 767 00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 3: During President Trump's first term. 768 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 12: This strategy will unleash experimentation, eliminate bureaucratic barriers, focus on investments, 769 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 12: and demonstrate the execution approach needed to ensure we lead 770 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 12: in military AI and that it grows more dominant into 771 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:02,319 Speaker 12: the future. In short, we will win this race by 772 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 12: becoming an AI first war fighting force across all domains, 773 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 12: from the back offices of the Pentagon to the tactical 774 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:14,880 Speaker 12: edge on the front lines. The catalysts for this acceleration 775 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 12: will be seven pace setting projects focused on mission threads 776 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 12: across war fighting, intelligence and enterprise missions, each with a 777 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:29,840 Speaker 12: single accountable leader, aggressive timelines, and measurable outcomes that answer 778 00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 12: a familiar question. 779 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:35,720 Speaker 3: Elon, what have you accomplished this week? 780 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:42,400 Speaker 12: This is the execution standard for AI first transformation. 781 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,800 Speaker 3: Each of the seven pace setting projects. 782 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 12: Will use the following model, one owner who reports monthly 783 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 12: on their progress. These projects will not be run in 784 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 12: a vacuum, but will work directly with warfighters and transition 785 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:01,320 Speaker 12: partners to ensure we incorporate real time operation feedback. We 786 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 12: expect rapid iterations with failure accelerating the learning curve. 787 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 3: These are not science projects, They are not governance boards. 788 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 3: They are the execution standard for the entire department. 789 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 12: We will not win the future by sprinkling AI onto 790 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 12: old tactics like digital pixie dust. We will win by 791 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 12: discovering entirely new ways of fighting. That's why we will 792 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 12: run continuous experimentation campaigns, quarterly force unforced combat labs with 793 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:40,320 Speaker 12: AI coordinated swarms, agent based cyber defense, and distributed command 794 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 12: and control, pushing the envelope, learning from failure at every stop, 795 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 12: which is exactly what this place does. You see, our 796 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 12: department doesn't accept failure in the past, and so we 797 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:53,399 Speaker 12: never fail, which means we never learn. 798 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:55,760 Speaker 3: We're flipping that dynamic. 799 00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 12: Before talking about the new rules of the game, let 800 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:01,839 Speaker 12: me talk about a little bit more about our new team. 801 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 3: Because no game can be won. 802 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 12: Without the right team, and we're proud to announce that 803 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 12: mister Cameron Stanley has been appointed the new Chief Digital 804 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:14,719 Speaker 12: and Artificial Intelligence Officer Ceniao of our War Department.
