1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,199 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. I am very excited 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: today because we have some of it with a much 3 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: better accent than me, So you get to listen to 4 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: someone very cool. Today we have Alex Phillips with us. 5 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: She is a British journalist and a former member of 6 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: the European Parliament. There's so much in the world going 7 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: on right now that we just saw what happened in France, 8 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,240 Speaker 1: we just saw what happened in the UK, and now 9 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: we obviously are watching what's happening with Joe Biden in 10 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: the US, so I thought Alex would be the best 11 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: person to bring on. Alex, thank you so much for 12 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: joining me. 13 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 2: It's a real pleasure. Thank you for having me on. 14 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 1: Absolutely right now, I think I want to ask you 15 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 1: about France first, if you don't mind, because we have 16 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 1: people in the United States who are saying, oh, they cheated, 17 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: and of course that's a big deal if you say 18 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,840 Speaker 1: that in the United States, and we've got these people 19 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: on the left who are like, oh, look, even people 20 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: on the right in the United States are saying France cheated. 21 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: But they did something to manipulate the vote, didn't they. 22 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think with I to die so I mean 23 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 2: intensive cheating. I'm sure it's fully within electoral law in France. 24 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 2: But what happened essentially was the party that a lot 25 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: of the critics call far right. I think it's complete 26 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: misappropriation of that term. Frankly, if you took rassl them 27 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 2: on national equipment in America, they'd probably be centrist, want 28 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: to control immigration, and they want to crack down on 29 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: Wislim extremism in that country. But there was a huge 30 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 2: push by the establishment of both the media establishments and 31 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 2: the political establishment to block them out of power. That 32 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: is why Immanual Wackpole called that snap election so quickly, 33 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 2: hoping to sort of unfoot them really and make sure 34 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 2: that they didn't have a chance to campaign. But then 35 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: won the first round of elections for the Senate and 36 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 2: then in the second round basically they created a pact 37 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 2: all the other parties led by Macworn, including an extremely 38 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: far left party who have had pretty you know, dodgy policies, 39 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: in order to essentially try and push out Russell on 40 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: national and prevent and getting a majority of the votes. 41 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: And so in the end, that is what happens. I 42 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: think a lot of French people will feel cheated because 43 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 2: essentially bassemblement of all of the parties in France got 44 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 2: the most votes. 45 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: So it's interesting you mentioned Muslim extremism, and I think 46 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: that it's important for us. I know you've been clear 47 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: on this to say that this is not this is 48 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: not the Muslim faith. This is when you have extremists, 49 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: and when you have extremists in all different cultures, but 50 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: you're calling out extremists that I have immigrated into Europe 51 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: and one of the things that I would notice you 52 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: were recently having a conversation about, and this is something 53 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: that I know a lot of Americans have on their 54 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: mind as we see people crossing the border and more 55 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,839 Speaker 1: crime coming to the United States. One of the things 56 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: that you talked about was these get rape gangs, and 57 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: that to me was shocking because I think that we 58 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: still feel pretty safe here in the United States and 59 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: I don't worry about my girls walking home from the 60 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: bus stop. But you're talking about teenage and preteen girls 61 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: getting gang raped by some of these immigrant gangs that 62 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: are coming in. Can you explain a little bit about that. 63 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 2: Right there have been two massive headline events that have 64 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 2: happened recently in Europe. I mean actually three of you 65 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 2: include Germany. There was one situation in Belgium where a 66 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: young teenage girl was coaxed into the forest by her 67 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 2: young boyfriend. What they call this in Belgium the loverboy technique, 68 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 2: where she's got a lot of a boyfriend and he 69 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: sort of brooms her and gives the presents and pisa 70 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 2: sort of get to to doing what he wants, and 71 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: this eventually lead her into doing things like making illicit 72 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 2: contents for online. Anyway, he took her into this forest 73 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: and down he and a load of his mates then 74 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: proceeded to gang rape her. And she was under the 75 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: age of sixteen. He was older than that. Some of 76 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: the participants in this themselves the boys were extremely young, 77 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: but they were all essentially Muslim African men. The similar 78 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 2: thing has happened in France, where a young Jewish girl 79 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 2: was gang raped by again Muslim African men as some 80 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: form of punishment. There's been an incident where this has 81 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 2: happened as well in Germany. Actually, if you look back 82 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 2: at the twenty three is twenty sixteen New Year's Eve 83 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 2: celebrations in Cologne in Germany, there were one two hundred 84 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 2: and fifty reported sexual assaults and rapes against young German 85 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 2: girls and celebrating that light in the middle of the 86 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 2: square where gowns of men surrounded them a bit like 87 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: packs of wolves, so have picked them off and proceeded 88 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 2: to assault them. And there are a couple of rapes 89 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 2: reported then and again the perpetrators were from the Middle 90 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: East and from North Africa. We've had a problem with 91 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: grooming of young white girls in the north of England, 92 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 2: especially places like Roberham, by Asian grooming gangs. Again, so 93 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: at what points I want to know, are we going 94 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 2: to wake up and say, look, we're not talking about 95 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 2: all Muslims, we're not talking about everybody practicing that faith, 96 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 2: but there is something happening here where the common denominator 97 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 2: are young men from that religion or at least with 98 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 2: those cultural values that you find in some countries in 99 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: the world. And again not saying everybody from those countries 100 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: have those cultural values, but you only have to look 101 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 2: at the way women are treated in countries like Syria, Afghanistan, 102 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: Iran to realize that in many respects they're treated as 103 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 2: second class citizens. And a lot of these young men 104 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 2: as well are constantly exposed to adult content that's becoming 105 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 2: more and more prevalent in society. And who are they 106 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 2: seeing in pornography. They're not seeing their own women. They 107 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: tend to be seeing Western women. And they're also in 108 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: some cases being preached to by their elders that essentially 109 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: white women are fair gain they don't have self respect. 110 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: And you put all these elements together and you get 111 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 2: a pretty toxic cocktail that unless we are comfortable and 112 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: confidence in talking about this, we are jeopardizing the security 113 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: and the dignity of our young women. 114 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: I think we're not comfortable talking about it for exactly 115 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 1: this reason, because we're afraid of think someone that you 116 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: either interviewed or you were talking to was saying, you know, here, 117 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: we are afraid to say that we want to protect culture, 118 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: we want to protect our families, we want to protect 119 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: our children, and we want to protect our women because 120 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: we want to be so welcoming. We want everybody to 121 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: think that we've accepted everyone and we're a big melting pot. 122 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: In certainly in the United States, it's the same right, 123 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: everybody's like, we want to be very welcoming. There is 124 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: a difference in cultures, and it is naive to say 125 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: there is not a difference in cultures. And that's what 126 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: I think we've you know, we're almost in the United States, 127 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: almost living the benefit of mistakes that were made in Europe, 128 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: where just mass migration was allowed and no vetting, and 129 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: now we have the ability to say, it's not that 130 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: you don't want to let anybody in, it's that you 131 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: want to make sure you're letting the right people in, 132 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: and that these people want to become Americans, not that 133 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 1: they want America to become a different country. And I 134 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: would imagine that that's the same thing that Ireland wants, 135 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: that the UK wants, that France want, or most people 136 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: you would think want if you want to come here, 137 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 1: find but become French, I would think, right. 138 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 2: I mean, this is it that the strength and solidity 139 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: of any community or country, it depends upon integration. And 140 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 2: you cannot have parallel cultures running side by side that 141 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: don't speak the same language, don't share the same moris 142 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: and values, and particularly when one of the cultures actually 143 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 2: vehemently dislikes and disrespects the other, that the culture of 144 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 2: the home country, and that this is witheeing the ghettoization 145 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: increasingly in Europe for various reasons when you look at 146 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 2: the old European empires and the old French Empire, the 147 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 2: old British Empire, that this involves Muslim countries, but it's 148 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 2: also about the rate of essentially people coming as well. 149 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: Back in the sort of period where we have people 150 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: from the Comorth coming to the UK from countries such 151 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: as Pakistan, it might have been twenty thousand and thirty thousand. 152 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 2: Over a period of time, these people assimilated. These people 153 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: came for jobs, love Britain, they loved the monarchy, They 154 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 2: wanted to adapt, they wanted to be part of the community. 155 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: Now we've got figures running over a million gross per 156 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 2: year and we are a country of sixty eight million. 157 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 2: This is a huge proportion of the population suddenly coming 158 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: from countries who don't share our values and they don't 159 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 2: seek to integrate. And frankly they don't have to because 160 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: they go and live within their families, within their communities, 161 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 2: and they don't mix with us. They go to their 162 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 2: own schools, sometimes they don't even speak the language. This 163 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 2: to me does not seem healthy for any society, and 164 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: frankly wouldn't happen if I were to go and live 165 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: in Iran, not that I particularly want to, but if 166 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 2: I was going to go live in Iran or North 167 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,119 Speaker 2: Africa or whether it may be, I would be expected 168 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: to adapt to their way of right, yes, or covering 169 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 2: myself up or you know, speaking the Lan language. I 170 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 2: don't think they'd have much truck with me walking around 171 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 2: in a mini skirt or you know. It's people have 172 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 2: got to be realistic about this, and it's not racist 173 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 2: to talk about this. This is about women's rights, and 174 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 2: I do not think that the security of women should 175 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 2: be sacrificed on the ultra of political correctness. 176 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: And you know, it's interesting that you mentioned that it 177 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: used to be that people came because they wanted to 178 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: become a member of society. Because we had a factory 179 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: here in the United States, and I remember, probably ten 180 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: years into owning it, we had an employee who was 181 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: high level in the shop and he had always been 182 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: with the factory from before we purchased a factory. And 183 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: one day immigration came in and they took him out. 184 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: You would never have known. You would never have known 185 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: because he was an American. I mean, he wanted to 186 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 1: be an American. You know that obviously he was illegal 187 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: and he had taken idea and then the identity of 188 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: a Californian person, and that's how they ended up finding him. 189 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: And the whole factory was devastated. You know, nobody knew 190 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: and he was truly part of our team, like a 191 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: part of our family. You know, you would never have known. Now, 192 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: we already see this where we have communities that are 193 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: separated and they don't want the average American to come 194 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: into the community and they want to keep it and 195 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: it just seems wrong. And that's why I think that 196 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: people are so concerned about border strengths. So that brings 197 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: me to that brings me to what's happening in the 198 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: United States. Obviously, we're in the midst of the Native Summit. 199 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: We have President Biden, who is out there leading talking 200 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: to folks and running for office again. Now he said 201 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: the first time he ran, he would be a one 202 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: term president. The first time he ran, I would say 203 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: there was a striking difference in twenty nineteen from two 204 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: thousand and eight. You know, him running as vice president 205 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: was a way different story than him running as president. 206 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: You could already see that there was a cognitive change. 207 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: I'll say that today. Obviously we saw the debate. We 208 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: see what's happening. We've seen it for a while, and 209 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: I think folks that are right of center have been 210 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: saying for a while, this is very concerning who is 211 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: running the country. And we're in the midst of two 212 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: we're wars, you know, we're looking at Ukraine, we're looking 213 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: at Israel. We're wondering who's in charge. But what we're 214 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: really wondering is what do other countries think about us? 215 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: So that's why I wanted to ask you what are 216 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 1: they We're hearing drips and dribbles of things coming out 217 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 1: of you know, like D Day and the G seven 218 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: where people like man he was really off his game. 219 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: What's going on? 220 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 2: Well, that's what we're all asking, What is going on? 221 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: In amount much marbles, how can you've got this senile 222 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: old man, a relic of the plus, cleaning onto powers 223 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 2: so hard his knuckles are turning white, saying only God 224 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: can take me away from this position. He's humbleson and 225 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 2: says things like he invented NATO, he invented microchips. I mean, 226 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 2: at this point he's sounding a bit like Mugabi or something, 227 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 2: and we just think that we want you to sort 228 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 2: yourself hunt. We want you to get a brilliant president 229 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: because you are the leaders of the free world. You've 230 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 2: always been the bastion of democracy and freedom of speech 231 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,199 Speaker 2: and common sense and sort of policing the world and 232 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 2: leading the way. And when you've got someone like that 233 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 2: in charge, and we're all looking at your system thinking 234 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 2: we've got, you know, three hundred million odd people in 235 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 2: your country, is this the best you can do? It's 236 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: your nominator in a party. Is this it? Really? I've 237 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 2: been asking the question of guests on my own show 238 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 2: back at Home in America in the UK, and guests 239 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 2: from America have been telling me that, you know, they 240 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 2: believe that this is essentially a Barack Obama wanting to 241 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 2: have a fourth term. But when he left as president, 242 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: he didn't leave Washington, and Biden is essentially his pick 243 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 2: because he can't stand again. 244 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: Now. 245 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's true or not. What I 246 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 2: do know is this surely cannot be in the best 247 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: interests of not just America, but the West as a whole, because, 248 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 2: like you said, the anti Western axis of China, of Iran, 249 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 2: of Russia, increasingly North Korea's joining that club. They are 250 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: on the march. They're doing all sorts of things, including 251 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: actually and elements of their Grave Zone warfare is storming 252 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 2: the borders, busting migrants out in different cultures to try 253 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 2: and destabilize our societies. They are really on the move. 254 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 2: And if we continue to sit back and let them 255 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 2: be dominant and our sounds being weak through Wheat leadership 256 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 2: and looking frankly cartoonish and klangdish on the world stage, 257 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 2: we are hurtling headlong towards disaster and there isn't much 258 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 2: time now to reverse this situation. Frankly, the plup is ticking. 259 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: I mean, got to get real. America's got to get real. 260 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: Stay tuned for more of my interview with Alex Phillips, 261 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: but first I want to take a moment to tell 262 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: you more about my partners at IFCJ. Since the start 263 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: of the Swords of Iron War in Israel on October seventh, 264 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: we've seen death and destruction in the Holy Land for 265 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: more than forty years. The International Fellowship of Christians and 266 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: Jews has been on the ground in Israel, and within 267 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: hours of the war starting, and every day since, they've 268 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: been feeding the hungry and protecting the vulnerable. The attacks 269 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: continue in the north and in the South of Israel, 270 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: but they are resilient survivors who bravely share their stories. 271 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: In a new series, The Fellowship calls faces of Iron 272 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: survivors like Danny, whose beloved daughter and her husband were 273 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: burned alone live on October seventh by Hamas terrorists. Danny 274 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,119 Speaker 1: is a commander of the fire and rescue in his community, 275 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: and despite fire equipment being nearby, Danny could do nothing 276 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: as his daughter's house burned and his daughter and her 277 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: husband lost their lives. But Christians like you support Israel 278 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: through the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, and it's 279 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: that support that helps these survivors remain steadfast and strong. 280 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: To hear more stories like this one and show your 281 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: support for Israel, visit SUPPORTIFCJ dot org again that support 282 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: IFCJ dot org. Stay tuned for more with Alex Phillips 283 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: after this. I think the Joe Biden who ran for president, 284 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: what was it the eighties or not. I think it 285 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: was the eighties when he first ran for president, would 286 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: look at this administration and be horrified. And that, to 287 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: me is the shocking thing, is that you've got the 288 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi's and the Maxine Waters and the Jerry Nadler's 289 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: who've been there forever, they didn't feel this way. This 290 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: is not what they. I mean, even when the first 291 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: term of AOC Alexandrio Casio Cortes came, Nancy Pelosi was horrified. 292 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: She is not a globalist or she was not she 293 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: was not into this progressive platform that seems they're all 294 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: melding together now they're all supporting this guy. They're all 295 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: supporting this agenda. They're all supporting this climate change stuff 296 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: that is demanding that our auto industry change over completely. 297 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: They are all into a radical destruction of the United States. 298 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: And it makes no sense other than power containing and 299 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: holding power. And I think that they do have some weird, 300 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: bizarre fear of Donald Trump, which I think is hilarious 301 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: because the entire system is set up so somebody can 302 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: only serve for eight years. He's already served for four. 303 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: Like I mean, if America didn't break under Joe Biden, 304 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: I think we're good, right, I think we can handle 305 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: another four years. They're so they're like, oh my gosh, 306 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: doom glues, everything is going to fall apart. So over 307 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: in Europe, what are folks thinking, like do they look 308 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: at the United States and say, if Donald Trump is 309 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: president again, the world is coming to an end? 310 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 2: Well, again, look, we are as divided as you are 311 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 2: on this issue because we've got this polarization at the 312 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: left and right, probably increasingly being pushed by the algorithms 313 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 2: of social media, manipulated as well in part by bought 314 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 2: farms from hostile regimes. That's also a huge element in this, right, Yeah, 315 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 2: in a post proof age. And the thing is that 316 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: Joe Biden. First of all, he's wrecking his own legacy. 317 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 2: He had a diesel legacy. He could have done been 318 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 2: a one term president, and people have looked back and 319 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 2: pointed to all of his successes. Now, if he, you know, 320 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 2: continues the way he is, he's a laughing stock. He's 321 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: going to ruin his reputation forever in the history books. 322 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 2: But I think what matters a fact, right as saying 323 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 2: we live at a post proof age when you look 324 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 2: at the stuff that Donald Trump did on the international 325 00:16:54,880 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 2: stage geopolitically, the Abraham recalls this was incredible, those peace agreements, 326 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 2: the opening of the normalization of relationships between Israel Saudi Arabia, 327 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 2: the UAE This was just breaking boundaries, was never being 328 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 2: even dreamt of being breached before, and he managed to 329 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 2: do that. And this was very clear. Actually when Iran 330 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 2: rains down all of those rockets and missiles on Israel, 331 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 2: when you looked at the nations that came to intercept 332 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 2: those rockets to make sure that not one hit in 333 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 2: Israeli City, which would have essentially led to some form 334 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 2: of World War three. Of that, I have no doubt. 335 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 2: You had America, you had the United Kingdom, you had farms, 336 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 2: but critically, you had planes taking off from Qatar. You 337 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 2: had Saudi aircraft helping to intercept to protect Israel. Because 338 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 2: they've grown up that they're done with this. They've realized 339 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 2: that actually prosperity is about progress and letting go of 340 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: those that sort of retribution tied to the past and 341 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 2: tied to this sort of war of religions. Iran hasn't 342 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 2: grown up. And what Donald Trump managed to do in 343 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 2: comportise that support for Israel, I think, essentially in recent months, 344 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 2: has averted a big global disaster. It's those facts that matter. 345 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 2: I don't care what Donald Trump might say in that 346 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 2: locker room style, you know, it doesn't bother me. What 347 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 2: I care about is security, and from the beginning he's 348 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 2: been a tough man on the international stage. Unpredictable, yes, 349 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 2: but actually that also has its merits and advantages when 350 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 2: you're trying to stand up to leaders like Putin. So 351 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 2: that is the you know, the critical thing here. And 352 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 2: like I was saying about Joe Biden, his legacy was 353 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: actually helping with the help of Pakistan to capture Osama 354 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 2: bin Laden. I mean, that should be white what people 355 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 2: remember him for, not falling down steps and jumbling up 356 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 2: his words and coming out with mad sentences, and he's 357 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: inclined to do these days. It's a tragedy, but it's 358 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: not a laughing matter. It's perilous. 359 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 1: No, you talk about his legacy. As we're hearing that 360 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: there will be a press conference on Thursday, and Karine 361 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: Jean Pierre, his own press secretary, is calling it a 362 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: big boy press conference, how humiliating. After the debate, Jill says, 363 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,479 Speaker 1: you did great, Joe. You answered every single question. And 364 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: I think we're all watching this and we're like, oh 365 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: my gosh, it's like talking to a toddler, so embarrassing. 366 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: And the question is does she talk to him that way? 367 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: All the time. Has she lost him to the point 368 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: where she talks to him that way all the time, 369 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 1: So she's used to it, didn't realize, Hey, I'm in 370 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: front of this crowd. I can't do this anymore. Are 371 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: they all so used to it that the press secretary 372 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: can come out and say it's a big boy press conference. 373 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: It's humiliating. 374 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 2: These people are sensible people. They're not idiots all they frankly, 375 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 2: you know. 376 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: What I mean. 377 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 2: I hope I'm the education. They've got eye ees, they've 378 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 2: got e's, they can hear what's going on. They must 379 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: have known for a long time. If the rest of 380 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 2: us have seen clips online and footage you like, footage 381 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 2: of his behavior, then it was apparent and there was 382 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 2: a little bit the actually for them to knit this 383 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 2: in the bud a long time ago, before he became 384 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 2: the Democrat nominee. They could have dealt with it. Now 385 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,719 Speaker 2: they're in a situation where they can't seem to do 386 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 2: anything about it, And that is what is so ridiculous. 387 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 2: What were they playing at? What was their end game? 388 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 2: Why does none of one have the tenacity or the 389 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: carriage to stand up and say this is well And 390 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 2: the only reason they're doing it now is after that 391 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 2: debate has become irrefutable. They can't play the game of 392 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: denying it anymore. But if that hadn't happened, they would 393 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 2: be wanting to go on and deny it. Their back 394 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 2: wouldn't be against the ropes having to say, Oh my gosh, 395 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 2: everyone can see him for what he is right now. 396 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 2: You know, we can't spin this anymore. But I mean, 397 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 2: why on earth were they trying to cover it up 398 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 2: in the first place. I don't get it. I mean, 399 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: I really don't get it. It's sort of you can 400 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 2: understand why people suddenly get tinfoil hat conspiracy theories when 401 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 2: they look at this rate, because it almost seems incredible, 402 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:52,719 Speaker 2: beyond belief. 403 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: No, and you make a great point because now we're 404 00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: suddenly hearing that German officials found this out in June 405 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two when he was supposed to meet 406 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: with the German Chancellor and Blincoln shows up and they say, oh, 407 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: he had to go to bed. But the Germans were 408 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: already making this event early in the evening because they 409 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: knew he struggles with evening time, he gets too tired. 410 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: This was in twenty two. They were accommodating Germany, was 411 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: accommodating our president because he's too tired in the evening, 412 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: and he still couldn't make it. That's the crime here. 413 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 1: Where are the people who should have at that point 414 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 1: stood up and said, okay, we have to have a primary. 415 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. All I really hope is that when it comes 416 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: to all of the institutions and organizations below the present 417 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 2: and that it doesn't matter who is the commander in chief, 418 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 2: because the CIA and you know, the barriers and heads 419 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,719 Speaker 2: of military and sold and so forth will keep a 420 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 2: tight shit running despite whatever he's rambling all about it 421 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 2: at the top. But it really doesn't project a sort 422 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 2: of image of America in control, as in, you know, 423 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 2: as a country that needs to be with and listens 424 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 2: to and in the world of diplomacy, especially you know 425 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 2: in the twenty first century where anywhere, whatever country you're from, 426 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 2: has got a mobile phone, handset and scene instant videos, 427 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 2: looking at TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, a lot of it. You know, 428 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 2: it is eluding the reputation of America and that is 429 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 2: so important to maintain because you know, people say that, 430 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 2: you know, when it comes to diplomacy, it might be 431 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 2: equals peace not weakness. You've got to be strong. And 432 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 2: when you've got a man essentially running the country who 433 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 2: has to be tucked up with your load of cocoa 434 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: and be drubbed out of his head, I don't know 435 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 2: five o'clock in the evening because he's old and seen. Aw, 436 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 2: that doesn't really reflect that image. 437 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: And if you're saying this, I mean, we haven't hidden this, 438 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: and I think that's what the mainstream media in America thinks. Okay, 439 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: we've hit it. We've effectively hidden this. Other people don't 440 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: realize that. And just the shift in what we've seen 441 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: with the mainstream media after the debate, Oh my goodness, 442 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: he's actually this is sad. He's a problem. We've got 443 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: to get rid of him. And then obviously, whoever those 444 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: people that President by Committee you're talking about, It seems 445 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: like those people went out to the media and said, enough, 446 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: you are going to get back in line. He's the nominee. 447 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: We're going to say he's okay, and he's managing the country. 448 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: The problem with this, from the perspective of the American people, 449 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: we are electing someone to make sure the bureaucracy isn't 450 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: taking over it, to represent us. Our representatives are supposed 451 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: to keep the bureaucracy and check. It's not supposed to 452 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: be that the bureaucracy is managing the president. And you 453 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: look at it and they are. I mean, you see 454 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: these notes that slip out where it's like, walk straight 455 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: to the podium. Here's a picture so you can see 456 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: where you're going to walk. Well, like this has never 457 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: happened before with the President of the United States. He's 458 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: getting pre asked questions. He knows what's going to happen. 459 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: And I think that the problem with the debate was 460 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: that was you know, there were rules. You can't get 461 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: the question ahead of time, you can't bring notes, there 462 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: are no teleprompters. He apparently is having teleprompters in kitchens 463 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 1: at fundraisers. How crazy is that? 464 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it is crazy, And you're right. Actually, 465 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 2: this isn't a front of democracy. The president is the 466 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 2: has executive powers and he's chosen by the people to 467 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 2: lead the way. I mean, this isn't just a sort 468 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 2: of ceremonial presidents. This is a man who can actually 469 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 2: make snap decisions that become law, that can be executed. 470 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 2: And so if who are making those decisions, if not him, 471 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 2: Who are the people in charge? And if you can't 472 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 2: see who they are, if they're not being held accountable, 473 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 2: if you can't vote them out, then you've got a 474 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 2: real problem. And this is what is so alarming in 475 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 2: terms of all the values that I was talking about earlier. 476 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 2: The Western value is the countries of the countries in 477 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 2: the West, which is so different from the anti Western 478 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 2: access who aren't democracies. You know, they're tyrannical regimes. And 479 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 2: we are not exactly upholding the things that we go 480 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 2: and around the world and tell other countries that they 481 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 2: should have in their countries. So it's just it's a 482 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: breaking everything. And you have commonates is by talking about 483 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 2: this erosion of the West and existential crisis happening within 484 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 2: the West, and it actually, to my eyes, it's being 485 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 2: accelerated at such a rate that you know, I don't 486 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 2: know what it's going to take now for an interventions 487 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 2: put things back on the right. 488 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: Stay tuned for more of my interview with Alex Phillips, 489 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: but first I want to take a moment to tell 490 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,360 Speaker 1: you more about my partners at bond Arms.

The culture is gone. It's 510 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: not the Germany is not the country it used to be. 511 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: Sweden is not the country it used to be that 512 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 1: there's the gangs that you talk about, just the lack 513 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: of safety, and I think that's something that we have 514 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: complained about slightly in the United States but really haven't 515 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: taken a hard look at what can happen. And if 516 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 1: you don't have safety, if you're not safe in your 517 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: own country, then you really have nothing right because you 518 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: can't go to work, you can't have a life, your 519 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: kids can't play outside. If you're not safe, you have nothing. 520 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: And so I don't think we emphasize that enough as 521 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: we see in the United States, and I don't know 522 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: how it's happening in Europe, but in the United States 523 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: there are actually people funding prosecutors that don't prosecute, attorneys 524 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: general who are not prosecuting crime either, people who are 525 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 1: looking the other way when it comes to criminals. And 526 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: then the funny thing about it is they get elected 527 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: by saying we can't stand gun violence, like guns are 528 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: just running around shooting people on their own. They know 529 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: what's happening. They've allowed the people who want to shoot 530 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: people with guns to go free when they know that 531 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: they want to shoot people with guns. And then you're 532 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: importing a bunch more people who you know nothing about. 533 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: But many times we find out they're on a terror 534 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 1: watch list, or they've killed someone in their home country 535 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: and they're escaping there, they're seeking asylum because they're going 536 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: to go to prison. This is craziness. And that's why 537 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: I wanted to have you on today because I've been 538 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: watching what you've been talking about. I think one day 539 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: you were on Newsmax right before me, and I'm like, 540 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: this is what we need to be talking to people 541 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: about so they actually see. This is the kind of 542 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: you talk about social media being so damaging. This is 543 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: the information share we need to have. What are you seeing? 544 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: What are we seeing? What do you see about us? 545 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: You know, these are the conversations we refuse to have. 546 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: And when you say, wow, this is the kind of 547 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: stuff that starts conspiracy theories, it's because we have so 548 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: much information and none of it's true, right, And. 549 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: Who is doing this? You know, when when did this 550 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 2: sort of stealth brainwashing begin? For want of a better term, 551 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 2: where all of a sudden, the idea of a country 552 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 2: enforcing its borders, which you need to do even right, 553 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 2: economic planning needed to determine what sort of infrastructure you 554 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 2: need in a country let's a learne the matters of 555 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 2: security and being pride and protecting your culture and heritage. 556 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 2: I mean, at what point did this assimilation of open 557 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: borders being good and wanting to just control of your 558 00:28:54,720 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 2: borders being somehow fascistic? It's not. I don't know where 559 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 2: this messaging came from. I don't know who's behind it. 560 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: I don't know what the endgame is for all of this. 561 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 2: I can only imagine somehow this is being corraled and 562 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 2: corry about by people who really don't like America and 563 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 2: really don't like the United Kingdom because the idea that 564 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 2: our own people want this is to me utterly insane, 565 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 2: because you can palpably see now the effect this is howing. 566 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,719 Speaker 2: We've just come out of our election cycle here and 567 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 2: you've had MP's having their offices firebond, You've had MP's 568 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 2: with their activists having their tires slashed. You've had six 569 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 2: candidates now elected who have shouted this is for Gaza 570 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 2: alacl acbar. Now we our seats in our parliament. I mean, 571 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 2: this is insane. You can see what is happening. And 572 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 2: yet in the EPA same thing. The politicians on the 573 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: left in extreme denial oh, it's diversity is wonderful. Nothing 574 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 2: to see here, even when that if politicians themselves are 575 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 2: losing their seats, they're getting the death threats. We're seeing 576 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: these marches every week now across London in favor of power, 577 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 2: where they're chanting deeply warm, wondering anti Semitic slogans. And 578 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 2: we're supposed to think that this is normal and that 579 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 2: this is okay and pretend there's not a problem with this, 580 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 2: because we don't want to be called racist, we don't 581 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 2: want to be called Islamophobic. As far as I can see, 582 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: what's beginning to happen is the tale is beginning to 583 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 2: wag the dog. We've given up on our own culture. 584 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 2: We're not allowed to defend it. We have to self 585 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 2: flagulate every five second and say we did the same 586 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 2: trade we were colonialists. Aren't we evil? Aren't we terrible? 587 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 2: Forgetting about all the great things we've done with the 588 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 2: world and the fact that so many countries have emulated 589 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 2: us and as a result become very successful nations. And 590 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: then when we do have this imposta culture coming in 591 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 2: who hate our values, who hate our democracy, who hate 592 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 2: our religions and friendly are the fascistic ones. They want 593 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 2: to close down conversation, they want to take over. We 594 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 2: just go, oh, it's lovely, it's diversity. I mean, if 595 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 2: people lost their. 596 00:30:55,720 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: Minds, it's exactly right. The diversity is there is no 597 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: diversity there because those are not the groups. Those groups 598 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: are not coming in and saying, you know what, I 599 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: want you to be free to be Christian, I want 600 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: you to be free to be gay. I want you 601 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,479 Speaker 1: to be free to be a working woman. They are 602 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: not saying those you talked about Iran and the women, 603 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: the way the women are treated there. Look in the seventies, 604 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: it wasn't that way. That's how quickly it can change. 605 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: They went in and took over that country. Women were 606 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: dressing in Western clothes, they had jobs, they were treated well, 607 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: they were respected, and now women have no choice. And 608 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 1: you know, people will complain that. 609 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 2: I say this. 610 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: In the United States, if you want to wear a burka, 611 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: or if you want to wear a hit job, you 612 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: are free to do that. You are also free to 613 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: dress in the Western way as well. In Iran you 614 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: are not that. And the people who are saying except this, 615 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 1: those weak people who are saying, you know what, it's Okay, 616 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: if you want to shut off and have little borders 617 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: here and you want to call this the Chaz zone, 618 00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: and you want to self govern and not be a 619 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: part of the country, those are the people who will 620 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: one day be taken over and told now you do 621 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: it this way. Now you can't be gay, now you 622 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: can't be this, and then they'll go, how did this happen? 623 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: You were the ones to asking for it. 624 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 2: Well, I think there's a couple of things going on here. 625 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 2: First of all, I mean, there's this sort of mad 626 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 2: idea that if you're coming from one of those countries 627 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 2: in the Middle East with these horrific regimes that I 628 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 2: don't know, you land on British soil and you're converted 629 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 2: to sort of a Western mindset, or the fact that 630 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 2: you've managed to go from country to country and find 631 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 2: the end up in the UK, you must already have 632 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 2: had that mindset. It's not plausible that people coming from 633 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 2: these countries half of the mindset of the country that 634 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 2: they're from. I mean, I'm not saying that any one 635 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 2: from Iran is like. It's a whole load of people 636 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 2: trying to stand up to that extremely horrible regime and 637 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 2: fight against it, and those people deserve our protection. Frankly, 638 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 2: I'm not against asylum seekers and refugees, but the thing 639 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 2: is what we're getting are to sylum seekers and refugees. 640 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 2: We're getting people we want to come here because we've 641 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 2: got a benefit system that they can offit from. They 642 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 2: can have a free hands saying well, they probably don't 643 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 2: send the children to score some of these people. But 644 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 2: the thing is, the middle classes are the ones so 645 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: have seized hold of power across the West, and it's 646 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 2: that sort of comfortable middle class too. This doesn't affect them, 647 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 2: doesn't affect their kids, It doesn't affect their neighborhoods, because 648 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 2: the immigrants can't afford to live in their neighborhoods. And frankly, 649 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 2: if their neighbor has started to become more multicultural and 650 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 2: diverse and they started to see things like this happening 651 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 2: in their own schools and on their own streets, they 652 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 2: have the money to get up and move. And so 653 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 2: it's all part of this sort of mindset of a 654 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 2: luxury ideology. Since so many other things now have been equalized. 655 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 2: Everyone can have a smartphone basically whenever your income. Most 656 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 2: people in Europe can afford to take a short haul 657 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 2: flight to another country to go on holiday. Regardless of 658 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,959 Speaker 2: your income, most people can have a you know, modern 659 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 2: car on finance. So what is it that these people 660 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 2: tute about to show that they are superior to other people? 661 00:33:55,680 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: The luxury ideologies. I'm kind, I like trans writes, I'm kind, 662 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 2: I like you know, immigration, I'm kind. Refugees welcome, And 663 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 2: they're not the sharpen. They're not living through in basic 664 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 2: measures things like wage compression. But it's not their neighborhood's changing. 665 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 2: It's not their little girls being harassed in the suite. 666 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 2: And so for them, they can just brush it under 667 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 2: the carpet. And they do it because they waltson make 668 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: themselves look good at the dinner party table. And that 669 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 2: to me is really really sad. 670 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, globalism is the new status symbol. That's it's interesting. 671 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 1: But you're so you're so right, that's exactly what it is. 672 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: And that's what it is in the United States. And 673 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: we see people bragging about I'm this and I'm that, 674 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: and and I had a thought about it that way. 675 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 1: There's not much that separates us because the reality is 676 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: we all live pretty similar lives and so now to 677 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 1: have a different life, you have to have this radical 678 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 1: progressive ideology that is different than the culture we've all 679 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: grown up and we all appreciate, and we're seeing it 680 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: go away. And I think that what we're seeing with 681 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 1: Joe Biden right now is even more terrifying because it 682 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,840 Speaker 1: goes to show that there are elites the control behind 683 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: the scenes, and what you were saying there, who are 684 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 1: these people and how do we know? And what does 685 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: that mean for the future, and how are they controlling elections? 686 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: And even what we saw in France by stepping down, 687 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 1: I mean, you really are taking away the person's right 688 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: to vote, You're taking away their democracy. And all of 689 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 1: the people who are saying there's a threat to democracy 690 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 1: right now are the threats. That's the gas lighting part 691 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: of it is like, wait a minute, yes there is. 692 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 2: It's you. 693 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: But listen.

We've got to keep 699 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 2: fighting this campaign, especially women. I think especially women because 700 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 2: you know, without doing that, in our own sects, more 701 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 2: often than not, it's the middle class women who are 702 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 2: the ones going re few keys, come one, come all, 703 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,840 Speaker 2: and we're the ones who have got us uff at first. 704 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 2: So the wolf female voices that join the chorus and 705 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 2: fights for our safety and our security and the maintenance 706 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 2: of our culture of Christian values, which is one of 707 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 2: the most incredible religions in the world when it comes 708 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 2: to protecting and respecting women. Until we as women realize 709 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,800 Speaker 2: that this is worth fighting for, we are going to stuff. 710 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, until you get your choices taken away from you. 711 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: Who you can marry, whether you can play sports, if 712 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,439 Speaker 1: you can go to college, all of those things, I mean, 713 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 1: those are the things that people don't understand. And then 714 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,399 Speaker 1: it goes well beyond that, how women are treated, whether 715 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: or not you're respected. All of that is is it 716 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: comes with this territory if you don't protect And that's 717 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: why it's not outrageous to say, well, hey, I want 718 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: American culture to be American culture the way it's been 719 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 1: has been good. I mean, we can always improve, but 720 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: not this way. Improve on the culture that we have 721 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: now so I appreciated.
