1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Thanks gut Shannon, and glad youate with us eight hundred 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: and ninety four one, Sean, if you want to be 3 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: a part of the program. As we continue our coverage 4 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 1: one hundred and eighteen days till election Day, sixty nine 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: days till early voting starts, we are awaiting President Biden's 6 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:24,320 Speaker 1: speech before the NATO Summit of fake news CNN describing 7 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: it as a make or break moment for Biden. In 8 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: terms of Kenny's show, he is cognitively strong enough to 9 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: be the leader of the free world. We'll get to 10 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: all of that as it unfolds, but first we're joined 11 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: by the great Senator from the great state of Arkansas. 12 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 1: Senator Tom Cotton is back with us. Senator, how are you. 13 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 2: I'm very good, Sean, had me back on with you. 14 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 3: Always great to have you. 15 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: What do you make of you know, all of a sudden, 16 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: I've been chronicling Joe Biden's cognitive decline for prior to 17 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election. Now, all of a sudden, after 18 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: the debate, all people just happened to notice all of it. 19 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 1: And in spite of all of the evidence that have 20 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 1: been out there pretty much on a daily basis, I 21 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: find it somewhat laughable. On the other hand, it's pathetic 22 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: because Biden's cognitive decline, cover up and deception is so 23 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: broad based within the Democratic Party, within the media mob. 24 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 3: It's revolting to me. 25 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 2: Yes, Sean, it is both laughable and pathetic. I was 26 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 2: amused that Joe Biden yesterday started blaming the elites for 27 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 2: trying to force him out of the nomination, when in 28 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 2: fact it's the elite that got him the nomination in 29 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: the first place. Sean, remember, without Jim Clyburn in twenty twenty, 30 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 2: he probably wouldn't have been the nominee, and then the 31 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: Democratic Party fell in line behind him as the only 32 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: alternative to socialist Bernie Sanders. And again in this election, 33 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: they close ranks. They shut down Robert F. Kennedy, they 34 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: shut down Democratic Congressman Dean Phillips. They did everything they 35 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: can with Joe Biden having a primary opponent, when the 36 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: polls have shown for years that the people as usual 37 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 2: are much smarter and have more common sense than the elites. 38 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: Even Democratic voters, much to say nothing of voters at large, 39 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: thought Joe Biden was too old and too infirm to 40 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 2: run for president. But the elites wanted to protect Joe Biden. 41 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 2: They acted like a praetorian guard he went through their primaries, 42 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 2: and now they realized that they made a mistake. The 43 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: Joe Biden we saw on that debate is no different 44 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 2: from the Joe Biden that we saw over the last 45 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 2: six months, Sean. They're not worried that last. 46 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,119 Speaker 1: Six months, pretty much the last four years. I mean, 47 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: I saw this part of the twenty twenty election, but 48 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: I understand your point. It seems more the client, I guess, 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: is more obvious. But it's been there the whole time. 50 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: It's been there the whole time, but it's just over 51 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 2: the last six months. The Democrats had their primaries in 52 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 2: which again they protected him from any competition from any 53 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: kind of opponent. So these Democratic that you see in 54 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 2: Congress and the media, they're not all of a sudden 55 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: surprised about health problem, Sean. They're concerned about a polling problem. 56 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: That is the only thing on their mind. They see 57 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 2: Donald Trump, she lacking Joe Biden all across the country 58 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: and the potential for Republican landslide. That's their concern. 59 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you this, because the Democrats had 60 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: this big meeting today. What was so interesting to come 61 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 1: out of it was a guy like Jerry Nadler, who 62 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: wanted over the weekend, had stated that he wanted Biden 63 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: to be removed, and he comes out of the meeting 64 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: with a change of heart and say, clearly the battle 65 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: was won by Biden supporters. Now you have people very powerful, 66 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: people like James Clive and I think maybe the most 67 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: powerful influential voice in the House for Democrats, and you 68 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: have the Congressional Black Caucus, then you have AOC in 69 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: the squad. They've all solidly stayed behind Joe Biden. I 70 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: think that is the real power base of the Democratic 71 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: Party and why would they not like Joey pretty much 72 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: is a rubber stamp for every radical agenda item that 73 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: they have. But they came out at the meeting today 74 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: and clearly a defeated Jerry Nadler, you know, reverses himself 75 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: and says, well, he's our guy. You know, I tried, 76 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: but you know I'm going to support him. And that 77 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: was not where he was over the weekend, which tells 78 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: me that it did not go well for the people 79 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: that were speaking ill of Joe Biden in this meeting. 80 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: And then they've got a timing problem, and as much 81 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: as they're gonna have, they have to nominate virtually before 82 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: I believe it's August fifth or August seventh, whatever it is, 83 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: and probably even before that Joe Biden, which is less 84 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: than a month. And if Joe Biden can survive a month, 85 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: then he will be their official nominee and locked in. 86 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: And you know, barring any real health issue or something catastrophic, 87 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: he's going to be on the ballot November. 88 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 4: I did. 89 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 2: It's not surprising these progressive Democrats want to keep Biden 90 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 2: on the ticket. He has been a useful puppet for 91 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: them for three and a half years. This is part 92 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 2: of the deal that Joe Biden cuts with the party 93 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 2: elite in twenty twenty. Support him for the president, helped 94 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: him win, and he'll turn over policy making to the 95 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 2: radicals in the Democratic Party. And you've seen it on 96 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: the border and immigration policy, You've seen it on abortion, 97 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 2: you've seen it on spending and every point. Joe Biden 98 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: has turned over power to radicals in the Congress and 99 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 2: in his administration. So of course the progressives want to 100 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: keep him in office. And I've got to say, Sean, 101 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 2: even though I mean, we've seen this decline now going 102 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 2: back years, and the Democratic elites acted like the performance 103 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: of the debate was shocking. Even if Joe Biden were 104 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: twenty five years younger and healthy and energetic and vigorous, 105 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 2: he still would have been a failed president because all 106 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: of his ideas are failures. All of his policies are failures. 107 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: And that's the same thing that would happen if Kamala 108 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,799 Speaker 2: Harris replaced them, or Gavin Newston or Gritch and Wetmer 109 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 2: or anyone else. They are all aligned with the radical 110 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 2: progressive policies that Joe Biden has allowed. Oh, I'm this 111 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 2: party to implement. 112 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: I'm glad you're making that point because I've been making 113 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: that point because this party is lockstep. I mean, it 114 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: doesn't matter who is in that office, the policies will 115 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: remain the same. And that means the policies of open borders, 116 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: the horrible economic policies they put in place, you know, defund, dismantle, 117 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: no bail laws that will remain in place, horrible energy 118 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: policies will remain in place, a horrible education system because 119 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: they're so beholden in this unholy alliance with the teachers' unions, 120 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: an American foreign policy that surrendered in the war against 121 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: terrorism in the case of Israel, and pretty much lets 122 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: our top geopolitical foes get away with anything and everything 123 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 1: they want with no push back at all. On top 124 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: of that, a green agenda that wants to force electric 125 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: vehicles in people's garages whether they want them or not, 126 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: and one that forces us to be more dependent on 127 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: energy than we ever should be considering our vast natural resources. 128 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, on all those issues in more Sean, you will 129 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 2: not find a dime fororth of difference on the one 130 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 2: hand between Joe Biden and on the other hand, Kamala 131 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: Harris or Gavin Newsom or Gretchen Whitmer or any other 132 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 2: potential presidential contender for the Democrats, they are monolithically progressive. 133 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 2: And the reason why they're going to keep Joe Biden 134 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: in this position, aside from the logistical and practical consideration, 135 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 2: is he has been a useful vessel and cipher to 136 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: implement those radical policies. 137 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: I'll be at the Republican National Convention coming up next week. 138 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: I'll be at the Democratic National Convention. Wish me luck 139 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: in Chicago and to get credentialed. I needed to prove 140 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: what I was. There is the SAVE Act that is 141 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: going on and being debated in the House. I believe 142 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: it will be voted on next week. And House Democrats 143 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: are fighting this bill that would require simply require proof 144 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: of US citizenship to vote. Why are Democrats against voter 145 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: id Why are they against voter signature verification, updated voter roles, 146 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: chain of custody, command partners and observers watching the voting 147 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: all day, the vote counting up up close all night. 148 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: And why would they fight against the requirement of proof 149 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: of citizenship to vote in our country? 150 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 2: Well, sean to ask the question reveals the answer. They're 151 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: against it because they want those things to happen. They 152 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 2: want illegals to be able to vote an election and 153 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 2: vote for Democrats. They want to have voter fraud that 154 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 2: doesn't require voter identification and genuine signatures. And I get so. 155 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: You said you had to show our show who you 156 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: were to get credentials for the conventions. And peace be 157 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 2: upon you for going to the DNC. By the way, 158 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 2: thank you'all. 159 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: I'll take the blessing. As much as many prayers as 160 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: people want to offer, I'll take them. 161 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 2: But think about anytime you hire a young producer or 162 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 2: new audio tech you have to verify that person's in 163 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 2: the country legally. To work. You have to look at 164 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 2: a passport or other documents on their I nine immigration form. 165 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 2: So why shouldn't you have to show a similar form 166 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 2: when you want to vote. Voting is the central act 167 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,199 Speaker 2: of our democracy. If you have to show it to 168 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 2: get a job in this country, if an American citizen, 169 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 2: shouldn't you have to be able to show it to 170 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: register to vote? You have to do it every single time. 171 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 2: But when you register. The Democrats are opposing this bill 172 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: because they want to make it easier to cheat our elections. 173 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: Let me ask you about a bill that you introduced 174 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: called the Bureaucratic Overreach Review Act, which would review federal 175 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: court decisions on laws, regulations, legal cases used and that 176 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: used the recently overturned Chevron USA Case versus Natural Resource 177 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 1: Defense count so as the basis for their decisions. 178 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 2: Tell us about Yeah, so, Sean, the Chevron doctrine, about 179 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 2: forty years old, said that if Congress passes an ambiguous law, 180 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 2: then the agencies are empowered to interpret it. And I 181 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 2: think the facts of the case that reversed Chevron last 182 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 2: week are a perfect example of just how bad that 183 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 2: doctrine could be. So the Fisheries Regulator was empowered to 184 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 2: put bureaucrats on fishing boats, taking away valuable space on 185 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 2: a small boat. And they went further and said, not 186 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 2: only are we going to take this valuable bed on 187 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 2: your boat while you're trying to make a living catching fish, 188 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 2: we're going to make you pay for the privilege of 189 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 2: having our bureaucrat writing on your boat. A totally unreasonable interpretation. 190 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 2: The Supreme Court was ripe to reverse it. What we 191 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 2: need now is a thorough review of all the regulations 192 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 2: that are on the books that only survive because a 193 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 2: court earlier invoked the Chevron difference doctrine. Then we can 194 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 2: even further rain in the administrative state that use this 195 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 2: doctrine to expand its own power. 196 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, so what does that mean? What does this mean 197 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: on a practical basis for Americans? In other words, that 198 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: it would require the Government Accountability Office to submit a 199 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: report to Congress that identifies these things and require agencies 200 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: to conduct a review of cases where the agency was 201 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: a party of and accorded the Chevron case. 202 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, Sean So there's three practical effects that could have. 203 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: The first, obviously is getting an agency off of its 204 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 2: duff to go back and look at cases where it 205 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 2: overreached the authority that Congress granted to it. Second, this 206 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 2: will help private parties who may be harmed by these 207 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 2: overreaching regulations to go back to court and say, under 208 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: this now obsolete doctrine, this regulation survived, but the court 209 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 2: has taken new look at it. Third, and maybe most fundamentally, 210 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: it'll give us in Congress the list of where we 211 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 2: need to do a better job. For years, Congress leaned 212 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 2: on this crutch to pass vague, ambiguous laws that avoided 213 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 2: hard trade offs that could involve political risks, and just 214 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: punted problems to these executive agencies. So you had irresponsible 215 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 2: members of Congress taking two by to the apple, passing 216 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 2: a vague and bigious law saying they had solved the problem, 217 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 2: and two or three years later, when the agency passed 218 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 2: makes a regulation that is overbroad and burdensome to Americans, 219 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 2: they can condemn the agency, so they get to have 220 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: their cake and eat it too. So there should be 221 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 2: a many levels of review of these older and onerous regulations. 222 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: Well, please keep us up to speed on all of this. 223 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 1: We appreciate your time. Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas, thank you, sir. 224 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: We are awaiting Joe Biden's speech before our NATO leaders 225 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: as they meet for a summit commemorating the seventy fifth 226 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: anniversary of this military alliance.

But many in the mob the 238 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: media that have been pushing for Biden to bow out 239 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: of this race are calling a make or break speech 240 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: before our NATO allies and to show our NATO allies 241 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: that he is fit to serve. I think we have 242 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: chronicled over the last four years, even before the last election, 243 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden had a significant cognitive decline. What time 244 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: he's actually going to get up there, I don't know, 245 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: but they are seeded. They did take pictures.

Not really sure what to 251 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: make of that, but if Joe speaks in the final 252 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: twenty five minutes of the program, we'll obviously carry it 253 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: as it happens.

I don't know about you, shamp, but 281 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 4: I'm not holding my breath for Joe Biden to come 282 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 4: out and suddenly be the magnificent orator, the rocket scientist, 283 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 4: the tortured genius who just can't be articulate or eloquent enough. 284 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 4: This is a man who has shown every sign of 285 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 4: mental and now physical decline, and he's not fit to 286 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 4: service president of the United States. 287 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 3: It really is sad that that's the case. 288 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: What frustrates me is everybody's acting shocked and feigning outrage 289 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: and surprise. I think it's more related to Biden's low 290 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: polling number than anything else. Yeah, he definitely, you know, 291 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: was checked out during the debate, but he's been checked 292 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: out for a long time. I mean, I've been showing 293 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: video over and over and over again. He has not 294 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: had a clean event in two years that I can 295 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: think of where he didn't have some cognitive issue. He 296 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: doesn't know whether to exit stage left or stage right. 297 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: He needs somebody to walk him off the stage. How 298 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: many times have we witnessed this guy's shaking air? How 299 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: come people didn't know not he doesn't use the big 300 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,120 Speaker 1: boy stairs of Air Force one any longer, or needs 301 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: a crowd around him as he's escorted to and from 302 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: Marine one. I mean, you know, how much more evidence 303 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: do you need? He can't do a Super Bowl interview 304 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: for crying out loud. He can't do a press conference, 305 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: forget that, that's not going to happen. He does these 306 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: interviews where apparently they're feeding questions to interview is before 307 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: the event takes place. 308 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 4: No, that's right. I sometimes ask the question of constituents 309 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 4: of family members. If you were a director, if you're 310 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 4: a member of a order directors of a large corporation, 311 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 4: what's a job for which you would hire Joe Biden? 312 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 4: And would you, under any circumstances consider hiring him as 313 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 4: your chief executive officer for that corporation, even if he's 314 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 4: that job currently. He would be unwise to do that. 315 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 4: It's hard for me to imagine a job for which 316 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 4: he'd be suited. It doesn't mean that he wasn't once 317 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,239 Speaker 4: capable of more things. But what we see now this 318 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 4: is a man who shakes hands with invisible people. This 319 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 4: is a man who can't complete a sentence. He's not 320 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 4: fit to be our commander in chief. 321 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 3: And that's a that's a pretty scary proposition. 322 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: And the whole time that that we've been witnessing and 323 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: chronicling this and the media mob and Democrats have ignored 324 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 1: the obvious. 325 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 3: Are our enemies. 326 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 1: They've been watching, and they've been maneuvering, and they've been acting, 327 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: and they've been taking advantage of the fact that he's 328 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: abdicated his role as the leader of the free world. 329 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: I don't really care what he says to these NATO awives. 330 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 3: I don't. 331 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna convince anyone in that audience 332 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: that he's completely fit to serve and leave the free world. 333 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: I think, you know, the hope is that he just 334 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: survives it long enough that he can get the delegates 335 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: to vote and nominate him and lock in the nomination 336 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: so they can't get rid of them. It seems to 337 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 1: be a race against time at this particular point. But 338 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: I assume they're gonna They're gonna make that nomination. 339 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 3: Uh. 340 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to waste all my time with you. 341 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, I have one job that 342 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 1: he couldn't do. He couldn't manage a Crown Burger shop 343 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: out in Utah. He couldn't be a greeter at Walmart. 344 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: You know those nice people that greet you when you 345 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: walk into Walmart, And usually they're often retirees, people that 346 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: want extra money, or people that for whatever reason, they 347 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: just love to do it. They're the nicest people in 348 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: the world. And you walk in, Hi, welcome to Walmart. 349 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: Can I help you with anything? Yeah, I'd like to 350 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: know where the sporting goods department is. Oh, that's to 351 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: go down to the left, go down Aisle fourteen and 352 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: on the right hand side, there it is. I don't 353 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: think he's capable of that job, but I digress. 354 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 4: It's an important rule. You've got to be familiar with 355 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 4: the menu if you're working at Crownburger in Salt Lake City, 356 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 4: or familiar with the layout of the Walmart in question, 357 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 4: if you're a greeder at Walmart. I don't think he 358 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 4: could do either of this. 359 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 3: I don't think he could either. 360 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: Let's talk about why is it that Democrats don't want 361 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: voter ID, they don't want signature verification, they don't want 362 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 1: partisan observers up watching the voting all day, in the 363 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: vote counting all night. Why they don't want updated voter rolls. 364 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: And now they're fighting back against an effort in the 365 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: House that would that would simply insist that people that 366 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: want to vote that they are required to provide proof 367 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: of US citizenship. 368 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,360 Speaker 3: Why would they be against. 369 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 4: That, Well, for one simple reason. If you're comfortable with 370 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 4: non citizens voting, then you wouldn't see the need for 371 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 4: this bill, and you might see it as an undue nuisance. Literally, Sean, 372 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 4: that is the only reason I can think of why 373 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 4: somebody could oppose this. In other words, I don't see 374 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 4: any legitimate reason to do this. The Save Act, this 375 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 4: is a bill I've introduced in the Senate Congressmanship Roy 376 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 4: from Texas is introduced it in the House and prevent 377 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 4: non citizens from illegally voting. They're already prohibited from voting 378 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 4: in federal elections, but right now there's no way of 379 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 4: verifying that a Save Act would require proof of citizenship 380 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 4: to vote in a federal election. 381 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 5: And now that. 382 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 4: We've got thirty million non citizens in this country, about 383 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 4: ten million of which came in during this presidency as 384 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 4: illegal immigrants, President Biden's got an increased heightened obligation to 385 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,479 Speaker 4: make sure that non citizens aren't voting. He's refusing to 386 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 4: do this. He's opposing the say Back, which the House 387 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 4: is going to be voting on tomorrow, and he's doing 388 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 4: so under this really creepy theory. He says, we don't 389 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 4: need it because non citizens already can't vote. That makes 390 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 4: no sense, Sean. It's like saying it's already illegal to 391 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 4: sell beer to little kids, so we're not going to 392 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 4: have a law that requires id to buy beer. 393 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 2: This is nothing. 394 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 4: It tells you everything you need to know about where 395 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 4: his heart is on letting non citizens vote. 396 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 1: Well, I think you're right, Senator. I think I'm going 397 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: to have to let you go. Not because we don't 398 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: love having you on the program. 399 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 3: We do. 400 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 1: But it appears that Joe Biden is now making his 401 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: way to the podium to address NATO. This is being 402 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: viewed this is a fascinating moment in history. Well, I 403 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: guess maybe he's not actually being called up to Well, yeah, 404 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: maybe he is. 405 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 3: I mean, we have the president of the United States. 406 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead, sir, a podium from the side of 407 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: a stage. 408 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: I mean, the idea, it's like the stages. I'm trying 409 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: to look at the podium. I'm not really sure, Linda, 410 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: what do you see there? Because I'm having a hard time. 411 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 6: No. 412 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 7: So basically what we're looking at right now is Joe 413 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 7: Biden went around behind and they have these huge wall separators, 414 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 7: so when he's walking over to where he would walk 415 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 7: up the steps, it's completely shielded from the audience, so 416 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 7: you can't see him go up the steps or attempt 417 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 7: to or whatever is happening back there. 418 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 5: And then they have. 419 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 3: They may be doing the They doing the national anthem. 420 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 7: Now, yeah, they got a bunch of folks there. I'm 421 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 7: not sure what's going on, a lot of pomp and circumstance, 422 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 7: you know, a lot of distraction with Kamala talking in Vegas, 423 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 7: you know, just nonsense. 424 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: Well, by the way, Donald Trump will be speaking tonight 425 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: in Florida at durrell I already saw that a big 426 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 1: crowd has already formed. If a hondering, my hour on 427 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: Hannity will cover that for you as well. They're doing 428 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: the national anthem right now. But what a sad thing 429 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: that a president of the United States is giving a 430 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: speech that is viewed as a make or break speech 431 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: to prove to our allies, Senator that in fact, he 432 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: is fit to serve as the leader of this country, 433 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 1: which is the leader of the free world. What a 434 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: sad state of affairs, Just that that whole environment that 435 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: he's now walking into, and I guess he's going to 436 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: be feeling a lot of pressure. Maybe not, maybe he's 437 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: too oblivious to feel the pressure, but he should be. 438 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 4: If this is a source of deep embarrassment and national peril, 439 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 4: that we have to worry about this, and that we 440 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 4: have to see our adversaries looking at our feeble commander 441 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 4: in chief who's not in possession of his faculties and 442 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 4: do this. Perhaps this is why at that exact moment, 443 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 4: Maybe maybe they expect that now that Jill Biden decided 444 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 4: to commission the Marine Corps Band in writing her own 445 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 4: theme song, maybe they're they're trying to cover up for 446 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 4: the other things that we're missing with the missing in 447 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 4: action commander in chief. Maybe that's a standard. By the way, 448 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 4: who does that. It seems like something that one of 449 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 4: the Habsburg emperors might have done. I think that's very 450 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 4: strange that our first lady had her own theme songs 451 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 4: composed and then performed by the Marine Corps band. 452 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: Well, Senator, looks like we're going to let you go, 453 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 1: as I believe that now introducing the President of the 454 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: United States, and as the world said. 455 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 6: Came together in this very room, history was watching. It's 456 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 6: been four years since the surrendered the Axis Powers, and 457 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 6: the end of the most devastating war the world had 458 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 6: ever ever known. Here these twelve leaders gathered to make 459 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 6: a sacred pledge to defend each other against aggression, provide 460 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 6: their collective security, and to answer threats as one. Because 461 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 6: they knew to prevent future wars, to protect democracies, to 462 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 6: lay the groundwork for lasting peace and prosperity, they needed 463 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 6: a new approach. They needed to combine their strengths. They 464 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 6: needed an alliance, and here they signed the Washington Treaty 465 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 6: and created the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the single greatest, 466 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,360 Speaker 6: most effective defensive alliance in the history of the world. 467 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 6: SPEIF Secretary General, leaders of NATO countries, foreign and defense 468 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 6: ministers represented US from partner nations in the European Union, 469 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 6: and members of Congress. Distinguished guest, Welcome, Welcome to the 470 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 6: twenty twenty four NATO Summit. 471 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 5: It's a pleasure.

Held 476 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 5: high the torch of liberty. 477 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 6: During long decades of the Cold War, when former adversaries 478 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 6: became fellow democracies, we welcome in an alliance. When war 479 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 6: broke out in the Balkans, we intervene to restore peace 480 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 6: and stop ethnic cleansing. And when the United States was 481 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 6: attacked on September eleventh, our NATO allies, all of you 482 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 6: stood with us, invoking Article five for the first time 483 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 6: in NATO history, treating an attack on us as an 484 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 6: attack on all of us, a breath taking display of 485 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 6: friendship that the American people will never ever ever forget. 486 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 6: Through all this history, when great changes occurred, people would 487 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 6: ask can NATO adapt? 488 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 5: And every time we proved we could adapt, and we. 489 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 6: Did, evolving our strategies to stay ahead of threats, reaching 490 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 6: out to new partners to increase our effectiveness. And here 491 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 6: with us today are countries from the Indo Pacific region. 492 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 6: They're here because they have a stake in our success 493 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 6: and we have a stake in theirs. Today NATO was 494 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 6: more powerful than ever, thirty two nations strong. For years, 495 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 6: Finland and Sweden were among our closest partners. Now they 496 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 6: have chosen to offici joined NATO and because of the 497 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 6: power and meeting of Article five guarantee. That's the reason 498 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 6: it was the most important aspect of the alliance in 499 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 6: nineteen forty nine and is still the most important aspect. 500 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 6: I'd also note Finland and Sweden joined the Alliance not 501 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 6: just because their. 502 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 3: Leaders saw magestations along the Sean Hennedy Show. Network. 503 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: Please know that we are going to continue our coverage 504 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 1: live of Joe Biden speaking before NATO, trying to reassure 505 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: our allies that he is fit to serve. We'll take 506 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: this to the end of the show at the top 507 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: of the hour, if you will stay with us. 508 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 5: It never has been. 509 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 6: I want to pause on this because it's significant. 510 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 5: The year twenty twenty, the year I was. 511 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 6: Elected president, only nine NATO allies are spending two percent 512 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 6: of the defense and GDP on defense. This year twenty 513 00:28:54,280 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 6: three will spend at least two percent, and some will 514 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 6: spend more than that, and the remaining countries that have 515 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 6: not yet reached that milestone will get there soon. This 516 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:14,959 Speaker 6: remarkable progress proof that our commitment is broad and deep, 517 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 6: that were ready, they were willing, were able to deter 518 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 6: aggression and defend every inch. 519 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 5: Of NATO territory across. 520 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 6: Every domain, land, air, sea, cyber and space. My friends, 521 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 6: it's good that we're stronger than ever because this moment 522 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 6: history calls for our collective strength. Autocrats on overturned global order, 523 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 6: which is by and large kept for nearly eighty years 524 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 6: in counting, terrorist groups continue to plot evil schemes, cause 525 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 6: mayhem and chaos and suffering in Europe. 526 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 5: Food's war of aggression. 527 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 6: Against Ukraine continues, and Putin wants nothing less, nothing less 528 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 6: than Ukraine's total subjugation, to end Ukraine's democracy, destroy you 529 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 6: raised Ukraine's culture, and to wipe Ukraine off the map. 530 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 6: And we know Putin won't stop at Ukraine. But make 531 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 6: no mistake, Ukraine can and will stop Putin, especially with 532 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 6: our full collective support. 533 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 5: They have our full support. 534 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 6: Eighty four Russia bombs are falling Ukraine. The Alliance acted 535 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 6: or I ordered the US reinforcements that NATO's is in 536 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 6: flying more troops, more aircraft, more capabilities, and now the 537 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 6: United States has more than one hundred thousand troops in 538 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 6: the continent of Europe. Native moves swiftly as well, not 539 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 6: only reinforce the four existing battle groups in the East, 540 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 6: but also adding four more in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia, 541 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 6: essentially doubly NATO strength on the eastern flank. Together, we've 542 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 6: built a global coalition to stand with Ukraine. Together we 543 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 6: provided significant economic and humanitarian assistance. And together we've supplied 544 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 6: Ukraine with weapons and needs to defend itself tanks, armored 545 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 6: fighting vehicles, air defense systems, long range missiles, and millions 546 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 6: of munitions. The United States, nearly two dozen allied partners 547 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 6: have signed to bilatal security agreements with Ukraine, and more 548 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 6: countries will follow. Today, I'm announcing the historic donation of 549 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 6: air defense equipment for Ukraine. The United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Romania, 550 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 6: and Italy will provide Ukraine with the equipment. 551 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 5: For five additional strategic area. 552 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 6: Defense systems, and in the coming months, the United States 553 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 6: and our partners intend to provide Ukraine with dozens of 554 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 6: additional tactical air defense systems. The United States will make 555 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 6: sure that when we export critical air defense interceptors, Ukraine 556 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 6: goes to the front of the lion, so we'll get 557 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 6: this assistance before anyone else gets it. All told, Ukraine 558 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 6: will receive hundreds of additional interceptors over the next year, 559 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 6: help me protect Ukrainian cities against Russian missiles Ukrainian troops 560 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 6: facing air attacks on their front lines. Make no mistake, 561 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 6: Russia is failing in this war, more than two years 562 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 6: in the Prudent's war of choice, as losses are staggering. 563 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 5: More than three hundred and fifty thousand Russian troops dead 564 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 5: are wounded. 565 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 6: Nearly one million Russians, many of them young people, have 566 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 6: left Russia because they no longer see a future in 567 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 6: Russia and Key. Remember, fellows and ladies supposed to fall 568 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 6: in five days. Remember I was still standing two and 569 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 6: a half years later, and we'll continue to stand. All 570 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 6: the Allies knew before this war Putin thought NATO would break. Today, 571 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 6: NATA was stronger than it's ever been in its history. 572 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 6: When this Census War began, Ukraine was a free country. 573 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 6: Today it is still a free country, and the war 574 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 6: will end with Ukraine remaining a free and independent country. 575 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 5: Russia will not prevail, Ukraine will prevail, Ladies and gentlemen. 576 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 6: This is a pivotal moment for Europe, for the trans community, 577 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 6: and I might add for the world. Let's remember the 578 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 6: fact that NATA remains the bulwark of global security. Did 579 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 6: not happen by accident. It wasn't inevitable. Again and again, 580 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 6: the critical moments, we chose unity over disunion, progress over retreat, 581 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 6: freedom of returnity, hope over fear. 582 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 5: Again and again we stood behind. 583 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 6: Our shared vision of a peaceful, prosperous translanting community. Here 584 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 6: at this summit, we gathered to proclaim NATA was ready 585 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 6: and able to secure that vision today and well into 586 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 6: the future. 587 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: All Right, there's a more energetic Joe Biden showing our 588 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: NATO allies he's fit to serve.
