1
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirk Show starts.

2
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 2: Now.

3
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 3: As you saw, the President announced last night, this was

4
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 3: a deal. This was a deal made by the President

5
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 3: and his team with the Venezuelan interim authorities. This will

6
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 3: benefit both the American people and the Venezuelan people. Its

7
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 3: Secretary right and the Department of Energy are working with

8
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 3: the interim authorities and also with the private oil industry

9
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 3: to execute on this historic energy deal that's not only

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 3: good for the United States, but it's also going to

11
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 3: revive the prosperity, the safety, the security of both the

12
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 3: United States and Venezuela as well.

13
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 4: And following up on the oil part of this, thirty

14
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 4: to fifty million barrels with oil, how exactly is actual

15
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 4: into worker We're getting it out of Venezuela into the

16
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 4: United States.

17
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:02,959
Speaker 1: Yes, that's exactly right.

18
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 3: So as you know ed, as the President announced last night,

19
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 3: this was the sanctioned oil that was basically just sitting

20
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 3: in barrels, sitting on ships because of the effective quarantine

21
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 3: of the United States of America and these the interim

22
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 3: authorities have agreed to release dot oil to the United States,

23
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 3: so it will be arriving here at home very soon.

24
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 3: The United States government has already begun marketing Venezuelan crude

25
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 3: oil and the globate marketplace for the benefit of the

26
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 3: United States engage the world's leading commodity marketers key banks

27
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 3: to execute and provide financial support for these crude oil

28
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 3: and crude product sales. All proceeds from the sale of

29
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 3: Venezuelan crude oil and products will first settle in US

30
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: control the accounts at globally recognized banks to guarantee the

31
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 3: legitimacy and integrity of the ultimate distribution of proceeds, and

32
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: those funds will be dispersed for the benefit of the

33
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 3: American people and the Venezuelan people at the discretion of

34
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:55,639
Speaker 3: the United States government.

35
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 4: Sounds like it requires a lot of private sector engagement,

36
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 4: agreement and the oil industry and the banking industry that yet.

37
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 3: There's a lot of private sector engagement that's happening right now,

38
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 3: as you know, Secretary, right our Energy secretary who's heading

39
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 3: up this big project, is in Florida today meeting with

40
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 3: some of these oil executives, and as we confirmed earlier,

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 3: they will also be at the White House later this week.

42
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: So they are absolutely eager to invest, their eager about

43
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 3: these opportunities, and Secretary right is a very well knowledgeable

44
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 3: guy when it comes to oil and energy, and he's

45
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 3: the perfect man for the job.

46
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: Another order of the world, the real quick going to

47
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: go happen.

48
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 5: Go ahead, So just to follow up on the oil

49
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 5: thirty to fifty million barrels is an initial trunk, if

50
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 5: you will, and then what happens after that one.

51
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 3: I won't get ahead of the plans that the President

52
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 3: and his team are currently speaking with the Interim Authority

53
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 3: is about. But rest assured there is a long term

54
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 3: plan here. Secretary Rubio and the entire team are working

55
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 3: diligently on it. And this is just sort of the

56
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 3: first action that you all are seeing.

57
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 6: Ed.

58
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 5: Thanks.

59
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 7: So in order to get these oil companies to invest in.

60
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 8: Venezuela, how will the US reassure that their workers will

61
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 8: be safe in Venezuela because there'll be troops so well.

62
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 3: At this point in time, as you know, there are

63
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 3: no troops on the ground in Venezuela. The President, of course,

64
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 3: reserves the right to use the United States military if necessary,

65
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 3: it's not something he wants to do. Diplomacy is always

66
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 3: the first option. As you saw, he tried that with

67
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 3: Nicholas Maduro, but unfortunately he was an illegitimate dictator and

68
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 3: an unserious person, and so President Trump authorized this law

69
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 3: enforcement operation. And now Nicholas Maduro is sitting in a

70
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 3: prison cell in New York. So certainly the President is

71
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: going to do what's in the best interests of the

72
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 3: American people, and that includes workers from our energy and

73
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 3: oil industry.

74
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 7: As meeting tomorrow.

75
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 9: With that meeting tomorrow, what is the message the president

76
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 9: is going to give to the oil executives and what

77
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 9: does it.

78
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 10: Want to hear?

79
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 3: Well, the meeting is on Friday, and it's just a

80
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: meeting to discuss, obviously the immense opportunity that is before

81
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 3: these oil companies right now.

82
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 11: Stephen than Caroline and congratulations again, thank you. The New

83
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 11: Yorker had a story yesterday on the vicesident and it

84
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 11: questioned his quote notable absence on Venezuela, and the sub

85
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 11: headline asked, was the Vice president's exclusion from the operation

86
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 11: in Venezuela and expression of his anti anti interventionist ideology

87
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 11: or political calculation? Would you be able to discuss the

88
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 11: vice president's role in venzuel Polsey.

89
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 3: I did see that report in the New Yorker, and

90
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 3: quite frankly, I laughed out loud because it's very clear

91
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 3: it's a fake report that's trying to so distrust in

92
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 3: division amongst the president and his team. Let me just

93
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,799
Speaker 3: be very clear, if the vice president has been involved

94
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 3: in all policy, he is the right hand man of

95
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 3: the president on all policy matters, including Venezuela policy. He

96
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 3: was of course read in and deeply involved in this

97
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 3: operation from the very beginning, and he was present on

98
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 3: the night of the operation via secure communication at a

99
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 3: different location as to not damage the operational secrecy of

100
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: this mission that was so incredibly important to ensure that

101
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 3: this mission could be carried out successfully without endangering our troops.

102
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 12: Sure, every day there is a battle for your mind,

103
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 12: raging information coming from every angle, but the will to

104
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 12: the sieve, fear not. You found the place for truth,

105
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 12: the voice of a generation that still has the will

106
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 12: to believe in the greatest country in the history of

107
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 12: the world. This is the Charlie Kirk Show. Fuck a lot,

108
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 12: here we go a lot.

109
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 13: All right, Welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show. It is

110
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 13: January seventh. Lots going on. We are going to throw

111
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 13: right here at the top to the press conference that

112
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,840
Speaker 13: Caroline Levitt is leading and the White House Press briefing room.

113
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 13: It's the first one since the deposition of Maduro in Venezuela.

114
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 13: So we're actually getting a lot of information. Let's go

115
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 13: ahead and throw back to Caroline.

116
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 3: Lovit advocated for in twenty twenty, Chuck Schumer said that

117
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 3: at the time President Trump had not brought an end

118
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 3: to the Maduro regime. The Maduro regime is more powerful

119
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 3: today and more in trench today than it was when

120
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 3: the President began. Now you hear Chuck Schumer out there

121
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 3: saying this is reckless. The American people and the Venezuelan

122
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 3: people should be in fear. But this is something that

123
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer has long advocated for. Senator Chris van Holland

124
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 3: same thing, had said that the United States is going

125
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: to use its leverage and influence to push for negotiations

126
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 3: to transition to the truly elected leader. This was under

127
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: President Biden. We know Maduro and his cronies don't want

128
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 3: to go quietly into the night. The US needs to

129
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 3: work to ratchet up the pressure.

130
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 7: Now.

131
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 3: Senator Holland says it's an illegal act of war to

132
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: get rid of Nicholas Maduro. So the hypocrisy is really

133
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: astounding here, and thank you for giving me an opportunity

134
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 3: to point it out.

135
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 14: Kaelin, I mean sorry, go ahead, Yes, their report of

136
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 14: the administration is demanding that Venezuela cut ties with China, Russia.

137
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 15: I ran in Cuba.

138
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 3: Can you confirm, I'm sorry, it reports that the administration

139
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: has essentially demanded that Venezuela cut ties with China, Russia.

140
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: Iran in Cuba, can you confirm that?

141
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 3: Well, those alleged demands were made in a classified briefing

142
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: by Secretary Rubio, And I know that there's a lot

143
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 3: of leaks coming out of these classified briefings, So I'm

144
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 3: not going to confirm or deny or get into what

145
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: the Secretary has set in classified settings to members of Congress.

146
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 3: But I think that the administration has made it quite

147
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 3: clear to the interim authorities in Venezuela that this is

148
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 3: the Western Hemisphere and American dominance is going to continue

149
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 3: under this president Aska.

150
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 16: There have also been.

151
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 15: Reports that the US could potentially buy Greenland is as

152
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 15: one potential.

153
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: Option on the table.

154
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: What would such an offer look like?

155
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 14: Is there anything monetarily you could provide a detailed there.

156
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 3: Well, that's something that's currently being actively discussed by the

157
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 3: President and his national security team. And I would point

158
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 3: out that the acquisition of Greenland by the United States

159
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 3: is not a new idea. This is something that presidents

160
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: dating back to the eighteen hundreds have said is advantageous

161
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 3: for America's national security. The President has been very open

162
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 3: and clear with all of you and with the world

163
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 3: that he've used it in the best interests of the

164
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 3: United States to deter Russian and Chinese aggression in the

165
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 3: Arctic region. And so that's why his team is currently

166
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 3: talking about what a potential purchase would look like.

167
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 17: Chuckie Caroline Greenland.

168
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 14: Why not rule out taking it by military force.

169
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 3: I know that past presidents and past leaders have often

170
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 3: ruled things out. They've often been very open about ruling

171
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 3: things in and basically broadcasting their foreign policy strategy to

172
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 3: the rest of the world, not just to our allies,

173
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 3: but most egregiously to our adversaries. That's not something this

174
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 3: president does. All options are always on the table for

175
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 3: President Trump as he examines what's in the best interests

176
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 3: of the United States. But I will just say that

177
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 3: the President's first option always has been diplomacy. Again, look

178
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 3: at Venezuela. He tried ardently to strike a good deal

179
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 3: with Nicholas Maduro and he told him, I will use

180
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 3: the United States military and you will not like it

181
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 3: if you don't take such a deal. And look at

182
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 3: what happened with respect to Iran. The President said the

183
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: same thing, right, he try to have serious interest and

184
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 3: then a deal with the Iranian regime with respect to

185
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 3: their nuclear capabilities. They were not interested, and so Operation

186
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 3: Midnight Hammer happened, which was another remarkable military success under

187
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 3: the leadership of this commander in chief. So the President

188
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 3: keeps his options open, but diplomacy is always the first.

189
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 14: Quickly, just one additional call, emplament, does the President recognize

190
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 14: Denmark's ownership as part of the Kingdom, Because there have

191
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 14: been some Republican senators questioning the claim that Denmark has

192
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 14: to Greenland. Is the President in that camp with them,

193
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 14: you know, questioning the legality.

194
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 3: Of I have not heard him question it personally, but

195
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 3: you're welcome to ask yourself next time you have the chance.

196
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: And it's lifted for Venezuela.

197
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 14: We've got to lift some sanctions to let the oil

198
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 14: come in.

199
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 18: Can you talk about that just very brief.

200
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, so the US is selectively rolling back sanctions to

201
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 3: enable the transport and the sale of Venezuelan crude and

202
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 3: oil products to the global markets.

203
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 5: Yes, Annie, thank you that there are some reports from

204
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 5: Venezuela that the country's leaders are cracking down on the population,

205
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 5: specifically suppressing public expression of support from Maduro's ouster. Is

206
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 5: that kind of behavior consistent with what the president wants

207
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 5: to see, how the president wants to see the leaders

208
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 5: take on the population.

209
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: It would not be consistent. And I'll let the President's

210
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 3: national security team speak further on that. I know they

211
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 3: are well aware and tracking.

212
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 18: Kelly, two questions, One on the c's vests, the villa

213
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 18: of the SOFIA. Can you tell us where they're headed,

214
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 18: what happens to any existing cargo and your reference personnel,

215
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 18: but potentially facing the prosecution, that's one thing i'd like, yes,

216
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 18: and the villa yes, okay. And any's question if I

217
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 18: can also ask, does the administration believe that the interim

218
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 18: receive should release all political dissidents and prisoners and return

219
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 18: to tainted Americans.

220
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 3: That's not a question that I've personally spoken about to

221
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 3: the President with so I will let him answer that question.

222
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 3: I don't want to make new policy at this podium today.

223
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 3: With respect to Venezuela. With respect to the two ships

224
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 3: that you mentioned, I spoke with you about the Bella one.

225
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 3: There was another vessel this morning, the Sofia, that in

226
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 3: coordination with the Department of War, the Department of Homeland

227
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 3: Security apprehended it. This is a stateless sanctioned dark fleet

228
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 3: motor tanker and this occurred without incident. This vessel was

229
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 3: operating in international waters and conducting illicit activities in the

230
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 3: Caribbean Sea. The US Coast Guard is escorting the Sofia

231
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 3: to the United States for final disposition. To answer your question,

232
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 3: Kelly directly, this was through Operation Southern Spear. The Department

233
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: of War is unwavering in its mission to rush illicit

234
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 3: activity in the Western Hemisphere, and as the President has

235
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 3: repeatedly stated, We're going to defend our homeland and restore

236
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 3: security and strength across the Americas. Sasha, Sasha, Caroline, thank

237
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 3: you and having me here.

238
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 19: Thanks to you.

239
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 20: Two questions, one on Venezuela, one on Greenland. You repeatedly

240
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 20: at the podium called the current leadership in Venezuelan interim leadership.

241
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 20: There are Republicans and Demrograts alike that say they want

242
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 20: to see elections in Venezuela. The President had said is

243
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 20: too soon to do that right now. But is there

244
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 20: a timeline for elections in Venezuela as he committed to

245
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 20: seeing that busy year?

246
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 2: For example, you.

247
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 3: Just said the President has answered that question. So I

248
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 3: will reiterate what the President has said a few times

249
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:38,839
Speaker 3: now to all of you, which is that it's too

250
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,559
Speaker 3: prematurture and too early to dictate a timetable for elections

251
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 3: in Venezuela right now.

252
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 20: Carolina, You've just talked to Jackie about diplomacy first, right,

253
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 20: the Days have repeatedly said they are willing to collaborate

254
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 20: on all of the concerns that the President has, whether

255
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 20: it's more truths, mineral rights, intelligence sharing. Why does the

256
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 20: President feel he needs to own Greenland and not out

257
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 20: the threat of military action when this could be done

258
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 20: through through deplomacy.

259
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 3: Well, who said diplomacy isn't taking place behind the scenes, Stasha.

260
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 3: I mean the President is interested in diplomacy. The National

261
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 3: security team is as well, and of course he's always

262
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 3: willing to pick up the phone for everybody and hear

263
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,079
Speaker 3: out they're concerned. But the president is the president of

264
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 3: the United States of America and he's always going to

265
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 3: be very clear about what he's views as being in

266
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 3: our nation's best interest.

267
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 21: Reagan, Thanks, Carolyn, I have a torture for you in Venezuela,

268
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 21: and then I'd love to ask you about Minnesota and

269
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 21: Tim Walls. Sure on Venezuela, I'm wondering does the administration

270
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 21: hope to start sending more Venezuelan migrants back home or

271
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 21: have themself or if the situation of the country.

272
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 3: And Bruce, as far as I'm concerned, the policies of

273
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 3: the Trump administration and the Department of Homeland Security have

274
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 3: not changed. All those illegally present in the country are

275
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 3: subject to deportation.

276
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 22: And I would just like to add how we got here.

277
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 3: The President was very clear on the campaign to the

278
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 3: American public, and it's one of the many reasons they

279
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 3: resoundingly re elected him back to this office that he

280
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 3: was not only going to crush foreign drug cartels, but

281
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 3: that he was not going to stand by and watch

282
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 3: as the illegitimate Venezuelan regime was sending illegal criminals and

283
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 3: gang members and rapists and murderers to our country, which

284
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 3: happened to the tune of thousands under the previous administration

285
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 3: in President and so there could be nothing more America

286
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 3: first than this operation that took place last week. And

287
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 3: I would just remind all of you in this room

288
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 3: that there were innocent Americans like Jocelyn Nungere who lost

289
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 3: their lives at the hands of dangerous Venezuelan criminals who

290
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 3: were sent here by the Maduro regime. And that has

291
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 3: been the President's north star and guiding principle throughout his

292
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 3: entire policy since January twentieth, Minnesota.

293
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 21: Does the administration believe that Tim Walls potentially dropped out.

294
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 23: Of the governor's race be gang by taking control of

295
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 23: Framelight for the US doesn't already have access.

296
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 3: To Gym right now, more control over the Arctic region

297
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 3: and ensuring that China and Russia and our adversaries cannot

298
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 3: continue their aggression in this very important and strategic region,

299
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 3: and there would be many other benefits as well, that

300
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 3: again the President and his national security team are currently

301
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 3: talking about. Jeff, I'll give you another one abroad first,

302
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 3: and that question.

303
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 19: On Wan Rolsey. Are you concerned about increasing tensions with Russia.

304
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 2: Because of the tanker and seizures, And.

305
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 24: How does the US action in Venezuela impact the ongoing

306
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 24: relationship with China and the President's relationship with President she.

307
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 3: I think the President has very open, honest and good

308
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 3: relationships with both President Putin and Russia, and also President

309
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 3: she of China. He has spoken with them numerous times,

310
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 3: as you know, since coming to office about a year ago.

311
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: And I leave that those personal relationships are going to continue.

312
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 3: But as for the President in the United States, he's

313
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 3: going to enforce our policy that's best for the United

314
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 3: States of America. And with respect to these ships teizers,

315
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 3: that means enforcing the embargo against all dark fleet vessels

316
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 3: that are illegally transporting oil and only legitimate commerce. To

317
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 3: answer your question much earlier, Rachel determined by the United

318
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 3: States is going to be permitted, and that's the policy

319
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 3: of this administration, and he's not afraid to implement it.

320
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 4: Last one, I remember asking the President here at the beginning

321
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 4: of this term.

322
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: If he was committed to Article five the NATO, and

323
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: he said yes.

324
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 4: Has his stance on NATO or his commitment to NATO

325
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 4: changed did you see.

326
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 3: His statement earlier today? He said, we will always be

327
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 3: there for NATO even if they are not there for us.

328
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 3: And I think that answers your question directly.

329
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 6: Yes, just to follow up on what I'm saying, they're

330
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 6: the only president to commit that if any Native.

331
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 24: Members are attacked to the United States with us.

332
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 3: Again, the President addressed this directly himself this morning after

333
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 3: seeing the coverage from all of you in this room

334
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 3: on television, and he made it very clear, We're always

335
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 3: going to be there for NATO, even if they have

336
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 3: not done right by the United States of America. And

337
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 3: they have finally increased their defense spending at the request

338
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 3: of this president. But it was only because of this

339
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 3: president that they did that. Michael, go ahead, Caroline, happy

340
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 3: to hear.

341
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 25: Congratulations, Thanks your questions, and one on healthcare, one on

342
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 25: next go On healthcare, the President says he wants Republicans

343
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 25: to be flexible on the High Amendment in order to

344
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 25: ask healthcare legislation.

345
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 16: What is the White House's message to pro life voters

346
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 16: who say federal funding for abortion goes against their values.

347
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,919
Speaker 3: Well, the President did not change the administration's policy. It

348
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 3: was President Trump who signed an executive order protecting the

349
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 3: High Amendment. It's the Trump administration that has taken multiple

350
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 3: actions on various fronts to ensure that taxpayer dollars are

351
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 3: not funding the practice of abortion. What the President was

352
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 3: saying yesterday was Republicans and frankly Democrats too, need to

353
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 3: show a little bit more flexibility so we can actually

354
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 3: get something done with respect to the issue of healthcare.

355
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 3: Republicans have amazing ideas. The President himself, as we spoke

356
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 3: about earlier, has launched this Most Favored Nation Drug Pricing initiative,

357
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 3: has cut good deals with big pharma. He wants to

358
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 3: see Republicans and Democrats too, if they're willing codify those

359
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 3: executive orders into law so that these good deals can

360
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 3: remain and these prices can continue to be lowered long

361
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 3: after this president and this deal maker in chief is gone.

362
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 3: President's talked a lot about health savings accounts and giving

363
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 3: more money back to the healthcare consumer rather than to

364
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 3: these giant insurance companies, and he's been very outspoken and

365
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 3: tough on them too, and I think you'll see more

366
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 3: and hear more from him directly on that issue. So

367
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 3: he wants to see Congress get something done with respect

368
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 3: to healthcare. And that was the point that he was

369
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 3: driving home yesterday.

370
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 16: So President Trump says, the drug cartels are running Mexico.

371
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 2: What action does.

372
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 16: He need to see Mexico's President Claudia shinbamb Ta to

373
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 16: prove that she's in control of that country, in control

374
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 16: of those hotels, And does the White House believe she's

375
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 16: able to do that without us and her vene.

376
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 3: Look, I think the President was speaking very candidly and

377
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 3: frankly about the reality on the ground in Mexico.

378
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 17: Hayley karly happy to be the year. I want to

379
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 17: talk to you about the seased tanker, the Bella Horse.

380
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 17: Before this that Russia had sent a submarine to this sport.

381
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 17: It was there any engagement with that submarine and then

382
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 17: was the deconfliction A line of Russian used ahead of

383
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 17: forty half.

384
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 3: Again, this was a Venezuelan shadow fleet vessel that has

385
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 3: transported sanctioned oil. The vessel was deemed stateless after flying

386
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 3: a false flag and it had a judicial seizure order

387
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 3: and that's why the crew will be subject to prosecution. Mary,

388
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 3: Thanks marye Columbia.

389
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 21: The President talking to week that will be open to

390
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 21: inauguration there should the President of Columbia be expecting delt

391
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 21: Horse and time too, And I'm another one to be

392
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 21: on healthcare.

393
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,040
Speaker 3: That would be a very unwise question for me to

394
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 3: answer to way into what's your next question?

395
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 18: In California?

396
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 21: Can you share any more about the broad investigation and

397
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 21: the President to send them their Westland?

398
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 5: Who's being investigated.

399
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 4: And where's it starting again?

400
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 3: This is going to be a all hands on deck

401
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 3: government wide effort. The President has directed all agencies across

402
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 3: the board to look at federal spending programs in not

403
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 3: just Minnesota, but also in the state of California, to

404
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 3: identify fraud and to prosecute to the fullest extent of

405
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 3: the law all those who have committed it. Take one

406
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 3: more sure.

407
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 26: Thank you, Carolyn. Yesterday was the five year anniversary of

408
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 26: January sixth. Democrats and mainstream media continue to push their

409
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 26: big lie that it was an insurrection and that police

410
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 26: officers died that day. The reality is that four Trump

411
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 26: supporters died in January sixth, and two women were killed

412
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 26: by January sixth police. Everybody knows Ashley Babbitt was shot

413
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 26: in cold blood by Capitol Police officer Michael byrd, But

414
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 26: there was an old woman. Her name was Roseanne Boylan

415
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 26: from Georgia, and she was peppable to gas and ultimately

416
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 26: bruly beaten with a stick. January sixth, police officer Lyla Morris.

417
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 26: The Biden administration in mainstream media lied and told Americans

418
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 26: rose Ama Boyle and died of overdose on capital steps.

419
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 26: Her family is now asking for an investigation. Is the

420
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 26: administration aware of the circumstances of her death and will

421
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 26: there be an investigation?

422
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 3: Finally, well, for an investigation, I will have to defer

423
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 3: you to either the FBI or the Department of Justice,

424
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,959
Speaker 3: and I'm sorry to have to do that, But with

425
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 3: respect to all of the facts that you just laid out,

426
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 3: the White House relished the opportunity yesterday to actually create

427
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 3: a new website to share the facts with the American public,

428
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 3: but also all those in this room. We knew the

429
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 3: media would be covering January sixth quite a bit because

430
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 3: they think it's something that the American people are still

431
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 3: believing their lives on. They think it's something that still

432
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 3: helps their case against this president. Obviously not, or else

433
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 3: he wouldn't have been re elected in an overwhelming fashion

434
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 3: in November of last year, and so I would encourage

435
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: everyone to take a look at the website. It's quite

436
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 3: well done. And thank you all very much. It's great

437
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 3: to be back with you.

438
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,719
Speaker 13: All Right, Well covered a lot of ground there with

439
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 13: Caroline Levitt the White House Press Briefing Room. We are

Speaker 13: the clock. But the massive amount of breaking news there.

445
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 13: It was the first White House Press briefing that Caroline

446
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 13: has done since the Maduro. I guess you would call

447
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 13: it attack a seizure deposition. Also, we've got two tankers

448
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 13: that have been basically apprehended boarded by US military. A

449

Speaker 27: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break. I'm

463
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 27: Terrence Bates. The White House just wrapped up its first

464
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 27: press briefing of this new year. Much of the focus

465
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 27: centered around health, as Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.

466
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:39,800

Speaker 27: As well As Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins were among the

468
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 27: featured speakers. Rollins addressed the issue of new nutrition guidelines.

469
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 22: These new dietary guidelines are a framework which is meant

470
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 22: to be customized to meet the needs, the preferences, and

471
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 22: the financial status of all American families. For example, a

472
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 22: meal including such items as pork or eggs, or whole

473
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 22: milk or cheese, tomatoes, other fresh and frozen fruits and vegetables,

474
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 22: whole grain bread, corn tortilla can cost today right around

475
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 22: three dollars for that meal three dollars, and soon USDA

476
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 22: will finalize our stalking standards, which means that those businesses

477
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 22: in America that take the SNAP benefit what they are

478
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 22: required to stock in order.

479
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 28: To take that benefit.

480
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 22: By the way, that's almost two hundred and fifty thousand

481
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 22: retailers across America. That very soon we will be finalizing

482
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 22: that rule that will mandate all two hundred and fifty

483
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 22: thousand retailers in America double the type of staple foods

484
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 22: that they provide for America's SNAP households. This means healthier

485
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 22: options will be in reach for all American families, regardless

486
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 22: of circumstance, at levels never seen before in our country.

487
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 22: These dietary guidelines are foundational to so many USDA programs,

488
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 22: and their introduction marks the first step in connecting America's

489
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 22: schools and dinner plates to the best of American agriculture.

490
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 10: Magno mistake.

491
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 22: Under President Trump's leadership, we are restoring common sense, we

492
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 22: are restoring scientific integrity, and we are restoring accountability to

493
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 22: federal food and health policy. The new guidelines are all

494
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 22: about putting the well being of Americans first, exactly where

495
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 22: it should have been all along. This is the foundation

496
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 22: that will make America healthy again.

497
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 27: And as I said earlier, Robert F. Kennedy Junior you

498
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 27: see him here in this picture, also spoke. He addressed

499
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 27: the new changes to childhood vaccines and also talked about

500
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 27: the fact that vaccines will still be available for children,

501
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 27: but they may not be mandated. That's a greick check

502
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 27: of your headlines.

503
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 29: Fact First, America First, Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.

504
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 13: All Right, twenty six marks two hundred and fifty years

505
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 13: of America, and conversations around American cultures will be front

506
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 13: and center all year long. The the point about America

507
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 13: being a two hundred and fifty cannot be lost on

508
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 13: any of you guys. That's a huge accomplishment for any nation.

509
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 13: And it's an awesome time to celebrate this country two

510
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 13: hundred and fifty years. So as America turns two fifty

511
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,239
Speaker 13: this year, let's remember the people who help builds it,

512
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 13: American ranchers. Good ranchers honors that legacy. Good ranchers only

513
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 13: sources their cuts from local American farms and ranches. Good

514
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 13: ranchers equals one dedicated to America. So if you want

515
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,199

530
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 13: Just talking with Ben Spell yesterday. As a matter of fact,

531
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,199
Speaker 13: without further ado, I'm very excited to bring in our

532
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 13: next guest, Senator Rick Scott from the great state of Florida.

533
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 1: It's good to have you back, Senator. How have you been.

534
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 19: I've been great. Happy New Year, Andrew. It's going to

535
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:44,400
Speaker 19: be a great year.

536
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 13: I've never been so ready to turn the calendar over

537
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 13: to the next year. I will tell you twenty twenty

538
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 13: five was a absolute doozy. But there is so much

539
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 13: breaking news here, Senator. You know, there's Greenland. There was

540
00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 13: a shooting that I want to actually inform our audience about,

541
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 13: involving an ICE officer in Minneapolis. As you know, we've

542
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 13: been surging ICE DHS personnel over two thousand on the

543
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 13: streets of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, massive, massive reaction from

544
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 13: the federal government. It appears that it was a ramming

545
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 13: and a shooting. This is breaking news. A ramming and

546
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 13: a shooting. So a lot of times the citizen activists,

547
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 13: these volunteers on the left, they will follow around ICE

548
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 13: vehicles trying to alert the public, and sometimes they ram them,

549
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 13: and sometimes they try and get in their way. Sometimes

550
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 13: they play fast and loose with their own vehicle. It

551
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 13: appears initial indications, we're waiting for more information here that

552
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 13: that's what this was.

553
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: But Senator, let's start there.

554
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 13: There was a House Oversight Committee hearing on this Somali

555
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 13: fraud and the complicity within the local politicians there covering

556
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 13: it up. Maybe they were getting political kickbacks. What's your

557
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 13: take of it. You have run the state of Florida.

558
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 13: You know these processes, you know how the bureaucracies work

559
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 13: to reaction.

560
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 19: Well, I'm not surprised. Number one.

561
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 4: When I became governor of Florida January twenty eleventh, I

562
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 4: started going agency by agency. Now my background is I'm

563
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 4: a business guy, and in business, you don't waste your money, right,

564
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 4: and you solve your customer's needs. They don't want to

565
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 4: pay you a little extra money because you wasted money

566
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 4: or did stupid things. So what I watched agency by agency,

567
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 4: there would be they wouldn't worry about fraud against the agency,

568
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 4: They wouldn't worry about improper payments. They you know, look

569
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 4: as free money the way is the way. So many

570
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 4: people looked at it. So I went agency by agency

571
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 4: and fix it. Then we got all this free federal money.

572
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 19: It's free.

573
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 4: By the way. The attitude that many governors have is

574
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 4: if if the federal governments paying for it up, that's free,

575
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 4: didn't cost you anything, right, right, And so I watched

576
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 4: it like after a hurricane, people would say, well, if

577
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 4: we just got to.

578
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 19: You know, we can go get all this free federal money.

579
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 4: So I watched unelievable fraud attempts with regard to debris

580
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 4: pick up after hurricanes. But that's just a tip of

581
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 4: the iceberg. Every government program, and especially thorough programs, the

582
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 4: oversight is pathetic.

583
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 19: It's horrible.

584
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 4: We have studies, We know that there's you know, hundreds

585
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 4: of billions of dollars of fraud. We know there's tens

586
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 4: of billions of dollars worth of improper payments and we

587
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 4: don't get the money back. Yeah, and then we know,

588
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 4: we know people lie cheating steel and we're just sitting

589
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 4: there and people say, well, it's it's free. Why do

590
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 4: you worry so much about this? Well, we should worry

591
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 4: about it because thirty eight and a half thrillion dollars

592
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 4: worth of debt. Your interest rates are too high because

593
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 4: of that, inflation is caused by all this wasteful spending.

594
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 19: And it's not fair.

595
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 4: It's not fair the hard working the kid that's out

596
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 4: there or family that's out there busting their butt every day.

597
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 4: And then somebody else doesn't want to work, so they

598
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 4: take advantage of a state government, a local government, a

599
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 4: federal government.

600
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 19: It's wrong.

601
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, it keeps getting worse the deeper this

602
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 13: rabbit hole goes. Senator, it looks like you know Keith Ellison,

603
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 13: there was a leaked tape released of him that he

604
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 13: was basically, you know, said he was going to cover

605
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 13: up for these Somalis if they kind of gave them

606
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 13: political kickbacks and they were going to run cover for them.

607
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 13: There's multiple questions here. I'm going to play David Marcus

608
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 13: from Fox News. He had a great take on it.

609
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 13: Want to get your reaction to it, because we had

610
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 13: Senator Ron Johnson on the show yesterday. I know a

611
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 13: friend and colleague of yours in the Senate who said

612
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 13: that these were these systems are designed to fail, They're

613
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 13: designed to be looted. They're designed to have wealth extracted

614
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 13: from working class Americans, from the white man, however you

615
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 13: want to look at it, to be given to marginalized communities.

616
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 13: I thought David Marcus made an incredible point here two

617
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 13: forty five.

618
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 30: This is not standard Tammany Hall patronage and kickbacks. So

619
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 30: we've always had that that was meant to keep people

620
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 30: in power, That was not meant to be a massive

621
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 30: redistribution of wealth. What we're seeing here is a massive

622
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 30: redistribution of wealth when these Blue states allocate billions of

623
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 30: dollars for marginalized communities and then fail to put in

624
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 30: place any safeguards to stop theft. That's Marxism by fraud.

625
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 30: That's that's taking money from corporations, from rich people, saying

626
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 30: we're going to send it over here, We're not going

627
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 30: to pay any attention to what's happening to it.

628
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 13: That line sticks with me. This is Marxism by fraud.

629
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 13: Is this intentional? Is this in a in a blue state,

630
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 13: in a blue setting?

631
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: Is this?

632
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:37,479
Speaker 13: Is this the outgrowth of a really sick ideology that

633
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 13: is based on racial grievances, that's based on systemic oppression,

634
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 13: that's based on CRT all of these ideologies.

635
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: Is it intentionally lacking oversight?

636
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 19: Oh? Absolutely?

637
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 4: I mean think about this, is the most of the

638
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 4: taxes are paid by hard working middle class Americans. That's

639
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 4: who's paying most of the taxes in this country, right

640
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 4: is taking their money and give it to somebody else.

641
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 4: And then their goal is the politicians that give all

642
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 4: this away, Oh, vote vote for them because they're giving

643
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 4: you something for free, because it's it's free Andrew that

644
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 4: doesn't cost anything. So absolutely, I mean, let me tell

645
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 4: you a quick story. I became governor of Florida, I

646
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 4: ran my whole campaign in twenty ten on jobs. I

647
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 4: go to the agency that does employment right after I won.

648
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,719
Speaker 4: I said, how's unemployment work? They said, well, you have to,

649
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 4: I said. He said, we're open six days a week

650
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 4: because unemployed fullians don't have enough time to apply during

651
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 4: the week. Really, I said, if you get unemployment, if

652
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 4: they're do anything. They said, yeah, apply for after fly

653
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 4: for five jobs a week. I said, you enforce that?

654
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 4: Oh no, I said, I said so.

655
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 19: I said, if you somebody was on unemployment and you

656
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 19: found them.

657
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 4: Have a job, would you, you know, accuse them of

658
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 4: fraud and get the money back?

659
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 19: Well? No, I said, what's your purpose here?

660
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 4: They said, our purpose is to give as many people

661
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 4: on the program as we can, right because we don't,

662
00:33:58,760 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 4: you know, because that.

663
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 19: Will feel good. Who cares? It's free?

664
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 4: By the way, they explained to me that at the time,

665
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 4: the federal government was paying the excess money, so it's free.

666
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 19: It's federal money.

667
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,479
Speaker 4: They don't care, and they think that's just how they're

668
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 4: going to get elected. And you look, I've been up

669
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 4: here seven years. They don't you know, the people, They

670
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 4: don't set up the programs to work. They intentionally allow

671
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,359
Speaker 4: it to be allowed the fraud, and then we have

672
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 4: aarmarks that waste money. We have programs that have no

673
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,720
Speaker 4: account But when I was governor of Florida, four thousand

674
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 4: lines of the budget, every line had a written purpose.

675
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 4: If you didn't meet your purpose, I vetoed your money.

676
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 4: We can't even I mean it's hard to even get

677
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 4: to copy the budget up here, let alone is there

678
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:42,840
Speaker 4: a purpose.

679
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 19: So we've got to get to the.

680
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 1: Bottom of this.

681
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 4: This is unfair, it's un American's furious has got Senator Scott.

682
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 24: We have to get to the bottom of this. But

683
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 24: it strikes me that the most immediate pressing thing. We're

684
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 24: not going to get Minnesota to reform itself unless we

685
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 24: can have a revolution in their state government. But we've

686
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 24: tried several times. We're not going to get washed. So

687
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 24: certainly we're not going to flip Washington. We're not going

688
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,439
Speaker 24: to flip fraud in California anytime soon.

689
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: It's what's the step.

690
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 24: I guess, first of all, what could the administration do

691
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 24: to have immediate accountability for this, not just in terms

692
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 24: of arresting perpetrators. But I think a lot of people

693
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 24: are asking, Okay, we know the fraud is there. Can

694
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 24: we bring a stop to it in a quick way,

695
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 24: even if that's something as simple as saying Minnesota doesn't

696
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 24: get money anymore.

697
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's kind of some of it.

698
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, so right now one thing that they should be

699
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 4: doing and they're focused on. And if you talk to

700
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,919
Speaker 4: Brooke Rollins or you talk to Membinas, you talk to them,

701
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 4: you know they're going through program by program and they're

702
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 4: gonna they're gonna do everything they can't.

703
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 19: That's number one. Number two is we've got it. We've

704
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 19: got in Congress.

705
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,799
Speaker 4: We've got to pass measures to stop the fraud and

706
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 4: make sure when we pass things it doesn't allow the

707
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 4: fraud to happen. So so what you know, people like

708
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 4: Ron Johnson and Mike Lee and Cynthia Lummis I are doing.

709
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 4: We keep coming up with ideas of how do you

710
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 4: stop the waste. Now, part of it is stop the earmarks.

711
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 4: Part of it, don't have programs that have no accountability.

712
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 19: That's part of it.

713
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 4: And then the other part is let's make sure that

714
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 4: the you know, executive branch has the ability to stop it.

715
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 4: And then we need to be doing investigations. We need

716
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 4: to do real investigations, of of the of of you know,

717
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 4: each of these programs I've been I think I've said

718
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 4: for seven years that all this fraud with regard to

719
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 4: Tobre pick up, and I can't get the Democrats to

720
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 4: help me. I'm on the right, I'm on the right committee,

721
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 4: but I have to have Democrat votes to get.

722
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 19: This done, to fix the unbelievable fraud and to repick

723
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 19: up after hurricanes.

724
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: Geez, I mean they don't want to do it, Senator,

725
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: they don't care.

726
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,879
Speaker 13: I'm just I wonder if you're going to get maybe

727
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 13: a John fetterman if in the Senate, if there's laws

728
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,919
Speaker 13: that need to be changed, because there, you know, there's

729
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 13: two little time here.

730
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: And I actually have to ask you about Greenland.

731
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 13: I had no idea you spoke with representative from Greenland

732
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 13: as much you did.

733
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 28: Nine.

734
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 4: Denmark is a great ally, and I know every time

735
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 4: I talk to them, I talk to their ambassad quite

736
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 4: a bit.

737
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 19: They want to work with us. So we'll see what

738
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:16,720
Speaker 19: happens there.

739
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,839
Speaker 1: All right, Senator, So you know these people.

740
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 19: I know exactly what's gonna happen.

741
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is going to happen next? One minute?

742
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 4: Led So I don't you know. Look, Denmark is a

743
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,399
Speaker 4: great ally. I talked to their basslor quite a bit.

744
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,439
Speaker 4: Jasper's a good guy. So I think Trump is trying

745
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 4: to be strategic. I don't believe we're going to be

746
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 4: invading Greenland, but I do believe we're going to figure

747
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 4: out how to work with Greenland to have more military

748
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:46,479
Speaker 4: assets on there so we can counteract with China. Rush

749
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 4: is doing. So something will happen there. You never know exactly.

750
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 4: You know the process. You know that let's make a

751
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,879
Speaker 4: deal guy is going to do. But something will happen

752
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 4: there to put us in a better position.

753
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean we're gonna have Pete Hagg's seth on

Speaker 31: All right.

774
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 13: Private student loan debt in the US totals about three

775
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 13: hundred billion dollars.

776
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 24: And over forty five billion of that is distressed. Forty

777
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 24: five billion.

778
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,760
Speaker 13: You got it, Yes, forty five billion of that is labeled,

779
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 13: is distressed or defaulted private student loans. And they are

780
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,200

799
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,760
Speaker 13: we got new information. There is a tweak here from

800
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 13: Trician McLoughlin, who was just on the show. Actually she

801
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 13: said today ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations,

802
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 13: very targeted. There's over two thousand that have surged to

803
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 13: that area following the Somali fraud ring, basically following Nick

804
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 13: Shirley's expose and when riders began blocking ICE officers and

805
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 13: one of these violent rioders weaponized her vehicle attempting to

806
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 13: run over our law enforcement officers at an attempt to

807
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:52,399
Speaker 13: kill them, certainly or at least to block them. But Yeah,

808
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 13: certainly those things can be fatal, and these people lose

809
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 13: their minds and they do crazy things. An act of

810
00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 13: domestic terrorism, says Trician McLoughlin. An ice officer, fearing for

811
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 13: his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and

812
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 13: the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. The alleged

813
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 13: perpetrator was hit in his decease. The ice officer who

814
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,839
Speaker 13: was hurt are expected to make full recoveries. And I

815
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 13: totally agree with this. By the way, what she says next,

816
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 13: this is the direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization

817
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 13: of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage

818
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 13: rampant assaults on our law enforcement. These men and women

819
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 13: who are simply enforcing the law on the books are

820
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 13: facing a thirteen hundred percent increase in assaults against them,

821
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 13: in an eight thousand percent increase in death threats.

822
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 1: This is an evolv these situations.

823
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 13: We're giving we will give public more information as soon

824
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 13: as it becomes.

825
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,359
Speaker 24: And that's the most important part, because she says that

826
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 24: we'll see there's reportedly video, we'll see, we'll get more

827
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 24: context on what fully happened. But the big picture is this,

828
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,240
Speaker 24: which is The reason ICE has to go around all

829
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 24: acting like they're basically going to war is because they're

830
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 24: treated as an enemy forced by these left wing cities,

831
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 24: by these left wing government. Their job would be a

832
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 24: million times easier if they could pluck people out of jails. Yes,

833
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,280
Speaker 24: like focus on that. Get the criminals so getting arrested.

834
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,760
Speaker 24: That's happening all the time. They have treated them like criminals.

835
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 24: They've encouraged violence against them, and they've harassed them.

836
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: And so regardless of how.

837
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 24: This incident went down, that is why it happened, and

838
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 24: that needs to be the focus. Yeah, the blood of

839
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 24: this person is on Jacob Fry's hands, It's on Governor

840
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 24: Tim Wallas's hands, period.

841
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: I totally well said a thousand percent agree.

842
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 13: I actually like it when we disagree on stuff a

843
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 13: little bit because it makes for a live I just

844
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 13: happened to completely agree with what you said. You have

845
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,920
Speaker 13: to so no sob stories here, absolutely not. I have

846
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 13: seen video after video. There was an instance that really

847
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 13: sticks out in my mind where I saw a video

848
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:48,719
Speaker 13: of this guy ramming ICE officers in California. They ram

849
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 13: him back, they stop him and arrest him. He gets released,

850
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 13: He gets immediately he's an American citizen. So he goes

851
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 13: over straight to CNN. About two hours later cries victim

852
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 13: on national television. And this is what they do, this

853
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 13: is their cycle. So you have these vigilantes, they call

854
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,359
Speaker 13: themselves citizen you know, activists or whatever, and they're working

855
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 13: on behalf of illegal immigrants because you know, why get

856
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 13: off your couch to help American citizens. They want to

857
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 13: go help the marginalized, right, So then they do this

858
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,959
Speaker 13: and they put lives on the line. They put lives

859
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 13: at risk of federal law enforcement. And by the way,

860
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 13: new today ice officers have surpassed their recruiting goals of

861
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,359
Speaker 13: ten thousand. According to the One Big Beautiful Bill, they've

862
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 13: hired twelve thousand. There's twelve thousand new ICE officers on

863
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 13: the streets of the United States. And I want to

864
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 13: underscore Blake's point here about this the way that it

865
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 13: was done. So you go back to Obama was called

866
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 13: the deporter in Chief. Do you realize that eighty percent

867
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 13: of those deportations were done the old fashioned way?

868
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:50,959
Speaker 1: What does that mean?

869
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 13: It means that an illegal immigrant was arrested, apprehended on

870
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,720
Speaker 13: the streets of his or her you know, invaded city.

871
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,720
Speaker 13: They would go into jail. The local officials would process

872
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 13: that person. There would be an ICE detainer. They would

873
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 13: hand that person over to ICE safely, securely. There's no

874
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,800
Speaker 13: raids in the streets. There's no DHS rammings, there's no

875
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 13: none of that stuff.

876
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 1: It's secure.

877
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 13: The person has handcuffs on, they get put on a plane,

878
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 13: process put back in their country of origin. When sanctuary

879
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 13: cities and states refuse to cooperate with federal law enforcement,

880
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 13: this is the result. They have to go into the streets,

881
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 13: do raids, they have to go knock on doors, They

882
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 13: have to endanger the public in order to do the

883
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 13: public a good.

884
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,279
Speaker 1: So this is completely Blake's point.

885
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,800
Speaker 13: The blood is on the hand of Jacob Fry, who's

886
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 13: by the way, demanding that these ICE agents be removed

887
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 13: from a city which is.

888
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 1: Not gonna happen.

889
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 13: By the way, and you hear tomhome and saying we're

890
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 13: gonna double down. We're coming for California, We're coming for Illinois,

891
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 13: We're coming from New York next So look out. More

892
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 13: of this is coming as it should be. And you know,

893
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 13: just say a prayer for our brave men and women

894
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 13: of DHS and ice as they are forced to not

895
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 13: work in cooperation behind closed doors in safety, but instead

896
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,440
Speaker 13: have to go out on the streets and commit, you know,

897
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 13: conduct raids on businesses and homes and that sort of thing.

898
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 13: Because this is completely on the head and on the

899
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 13: hands of local officials.

900
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: It's absolutely infuriating.

901
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 10: Blake.

902
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 13: We had a kind of related but there was a

903
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 13: House Oversight Committee hearing, the first of its kind. Some

904
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 13: explosive allegations were made in this hearing by Republicans in

905
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 13: the state of Minnesota that were saying they have tried

906
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 13: to conduct oversight and to deal with the fraud in Minnesota.

907
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 24: We saw this one viral the other day that there's

908
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:42,240
Speaker 24: in twenty eighteen there Inspector General did a whole report

909
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,879
Speaker 24: or the staff there did a whole thing. It laid

910
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,400
Speaker 24: out exactly how fraud happens. They say they have fake

911
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 24: groups that come in or as fake groups, they have

912
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:52,680
Speaker 24: groups of like these daycares that come in and say

913
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 24: we're interested in stopping fraud, but they're really trying to

914
00:45:55,760 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 24: deflect investigations away. They had a whistleblower explain this to them, said,

915
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:02,759
Speaker 24: we think half of all of our daycare money may

916
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 24: be going to fraud if not more, and then the

917
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 24: Inspector General just buries it.

918
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 13: Well and get this, they are fabricating documents play cut

919
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 13: two sixty two.

920
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 32: According to the non partisan Legislative Auditor, this is another

921
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 32: case of mismanagement of taxpayer money.

922
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 1: But perhaps the most explosive revelation is that.

923
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 32: Managers within DHS, the Department of Human Services, tried to

924
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 32: cover their tracks by backdating and creating new.

925
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 13: Documents backdating, so they're trying to cover their tracks. Other

926
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 13: testimony from this morning's hearing said that they were blacklisted,

927
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 13: that it was career suicide to call out fraud. The

928
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,720
Speaker 13: depth of the rot seems to know no end here.

929
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 13: It's truly stunning, and I think we all knew this

930
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,760
Speaker 13: was going on. We all knew that there was fraud,

931
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:51,840
Speaker 13: We all knew that it was blown, but it was

932
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 13: so amorphous and abstract, and now you're seeing in vivid

933
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 13: technicolor exactly how it works.

934
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,000

Speaker 13: two coming up.

938
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,240
Speaker 2: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break.

939
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 27: I'm Terrence Bates. Why not start this new year off

940
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 27: with total health. There's a good chance that one of

941
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 27: your New Year's resolutions is to either lose weight or

942
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,879
Speaker 27: deliver a healthier lifestyle. Well, why not try something new

943
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 27: this year so that you can actually see your resolution through.

944
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,399
Speaker 2: My five to five to five Challenge. Well, that may

945
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 2: be just the thing for you.

946
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,359
Speaker 15: We lost weight that first week. I've gone down five

947
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,360
Speaker 15: notches on my belt. If you just follow the program,

948
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 15: it works. I mean, this is so simple and so doable,

949
00:47:58,360 --> 00:47:59,440
Speaker 15: and so I.

950
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 7: Just thank you.

951
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:01,800
Speaker 19: I have no more body aches.

952
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 26: My mind is clear, my endurance is up, my heart

953
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 26: is just fuller.

954
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 19: I'm able to give more and be more pleasent.

955
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,879
Speaker 15: It's changed our marriage, It's changed our relationship, and it's

956
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:14,799
Speaker 15: so sustainable.

957
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 2: Let's bring in John Jubilie.

958
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,240
Speaker 27: He's the founder of Energized Health and the man behind

Speaker 27: always get to see you. Happy New Year, Happy New Year.

961
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 27: So look, the reality is, it is a new year.

962
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 27: Everybody's pretty much making these new year's resolutions. Mine typically

963
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 27: is out the door less than twenty four minutes twenty

964
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 27: four hours after I make it.

965
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:38,280
Speaker 2: How do you sustain these.

966
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 27: New Year's resolutions, particularly when it comes to health.

967
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 28: Well, well, Terrence, I can tell you how to do it.

968
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 28: And the reason I.

969
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:51,399
Speaker 8: Can, Terrence, is because for ten years, for ten years.

970
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 28: I just was like everyone else out here.

971
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 8: I'd make my New Year's resolution and guess what, Terrence,

972
00:48:56,640 --> 00:49:00,799
Speaker 8: And it never was sustainable. It never was sustainable. I

973
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 8: just couldn't do it. I was like everyone else fourteen

974
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:07,840
Speaker 8: to twenty one days in because it didn't work. Didn't work, Terrence,

975
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 8: and it was not a sustainable solution. But I can

976
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 8: tell you, guys, when I found this, when I found

977
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:19,280
Speaker 8: this energized health protocol, this has been sustainable for twenty

978
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:19,960
Speaker 8: eight years.

979
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 28: Now.

980
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 8: How many of you would say, twenty eight years now,

981
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:23,040
Speaker 8: that's working.

982
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 28: If it sustained you for twenty eight years.

983
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 8: So I've been the same shape and size for twenty

984
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:30,400
Speaker 8: eight years now, how many of you would.

985
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:31,280
Speaker 2: Like to have that story?

986
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,720
Speaker 8: And not one medical doctor visit Terrence for twenty eight years,

987
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 8: because it's really hard to make a healthy sell sick.

988
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 8: But the great news is is this really is sustainable.

989
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:47,240
Speaker 8: This can be your last New Year's resolution. Who would

990
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 8: like to do your last New Year's resolution that you

991
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:55,480
Speaker 8: ever do because guys, you know, I make it simple

992
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 8: for you. You can lose one of these in a

993
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 8: week this week. By the way, you guys can come

994
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,879
Speaker 8: and join Chelsea and I today today. You can sign

995
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,760
Speaker 8: up today and Terrence will spend about forty five minutes each.

996
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 2: Day for the next five days.

997
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 8: And guys, you're going to lose this in five days.

998
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:16,719
Speaker 27: I'm sorry to cut you off, but there are people

999
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:18,879
Speaker 27: looking at that and saying, okay, looks like a big

1000
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 27: poam blob. What does that represent. Let's be clear, this

1001
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:26,160
Speaker 27: is five pounds of fat. This is five pounds of fat.

1002
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 28: What your fat really looks like in your body.

1003
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 8: That's just five pounds of fat, by the way, So

1004
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,399
Speaker 8: just think if you got twenty, that's four.

1005
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 28: You know, you got four of these to lose or more.

1006
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 28: But the good news is is once you lose one in.

1007
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:40,920
Speaker 8: A week, you realize, well, hey, if I could do

1008
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,960
Speaker 8: that every week, it won't take me long to achieve

1009
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 8: my goal. And then you realize each week that you're

1010
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 8: doing this, you realize, well, this is so sustainable.

1011
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,840

1012
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:53,400
Speaker 28: my life.

1013
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,320
Speaker 2: John. Let's get to the nitty gritty. Then let's lose

1014
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:57,440

1044
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 13: We have Rich Barris, the People's pundit, founder of Big

1045
00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 13: Data pol, joining us.

1046
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 2: Now.

1047
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,120
Speaker 1: I tweeted something yesterday. Welcome Rich.

1048
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 13: I tweeted something yesterday from Harry Enton from CNN, and

1049
00:52:57,480 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 13: I saw you get into the comments, and I was like,

1050
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,239
Speaker 13: I gotta give a boy, Rich, huh, because I know

1051
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 13: would I take When I tweeted it, I was like,

1052
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:07,400
Speaker 13: I thought about you in the backway head. I was like,

1053
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 13: I know, Rich is gonna totally disagree, but I kind

1054
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:11,279
Speaker 13: of disagree with you a little bit. That can make

1055
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:14,359
Speaker 13: for a fun conversation. So Harry Entton is saying that

1056
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 13: there is no rift in MAGA that President Trump was

1057
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:21,080
Speaker 13: at eighty four percent of approval rate within the GOP

1058
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,800
Speaker 13: or his base previous Trump voters. Now he's at eighty

1059
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 13: five percent. Six months goes by, he goes up one

1060
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 13: percentage point, which is nominal obviously, but at least it's

1061
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:30,919
Speaker 13: not going the other way.

1062
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: It's going presumably up.

1063
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,120
Speaker 13: And this is after Venezuela, you know, which raised some

1064
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:39,400
Speaker 13: questions about our foreign policy. Maga's America first, So how

1065
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 13: does this jive with that whole vibe? So rich, tell

1066
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,960
Speaker 13: me why Harry Entton is wrong? What what am I missing?

1067
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 13: The floor is yours?

1068
00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 23: So first and for folks, maybe this was the easiest

1069
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 23: way to explain it. And as always, by the way,

1070
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 23: thanks for having me. Of course, think about the MAGA

1071
00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 23: coalition like a simple then diagram. All right, Republican does

1072
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,400
Speaker 23: not equal MAGA, and MAGA does not equal Republican.

1073
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 10: If you looked at it like a Venn diagram, you would.

1074
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:09,840
Speaker 23: See in the middle, you know, all of the various

1075
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:13,440
Speaker 23: groups that come together. But MAGA is actually made up

1076
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,440
Speaker 23: of several different groups of people.

1077
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:17,719
Speaker 10: One, you're going to have those hardcore Republicans.

1078
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:20,839
Speaker 23: They're Republicans, they vote Republican no matter what, and they

1079
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:23,439
Speaker 23: also vote MAGA, and Trump has won the argument even

1080
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 23: with them. And then you have a smaller group of

1081
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:29,680
Speaker 23: Republicans that they're not MAGA. And by the way, I mean,

1082
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 23: we have some public figures that pretend like they are,

1083
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:35,880
Speaker 23: but in truth, in the populace, they've been voting Democrat

1084
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:38,440
Speaker 23: for a while. They may vote for a moderate Republican

1085
00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 23: or traditional Rhino or something.

1086
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:41,840
Speaker 10: But they don't vote for MAGA.

1087
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:46,600
Speaker 23: But they're overwhelmed, and they're like more than offset by

1088
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,040
Speaker 23: a group of independents and even a small sliver of

1089
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:53,480
Speaker 23: orphan Democrats that only vote for MAGA, and they'll only

1090
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,600
Speaker 23: come out for America. And I don't even know if maga'

1091
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 23: is the right way to say it anymore, Andrew, because

1092
00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:00,720
Speaker 23: we've had this like debate over MAGA versus America First,

1093
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:02,839
Speaker 23: So the messaging is getting muddled there.

1094
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:03,440
Speaker 10: But for all the.

1095
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 23: Time that we have been tracking it, it's, you know,

1096
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 23: in theory, this is Donald Trump's vision of America First, right,

1097
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 23: And I know we're debating what that means right now, right,

1098
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:14,840
Speaker 23: even with the president off doing things that other people

1099
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 23: disagree with. But Harry Enton, I would warn all of

1100
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:22,280
Speaker 23: you he is a prime actor in what has long

1101
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:25,399
Speaker 23: been a use of public polls to dupe the right,

1102
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 23: and the right falls for it every single.

1103
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 13: Hold on, hold on, rich now, I remember Harry Enton

1104
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,880
Speaker 13: in the run up to the twenty twenty four election

1105
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 13: showing poll after poll of Trump winning, of Trump being

1106
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:40,640
Speaker 13: ahead in the polls, of Trump winning on this issue

1107
00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:41,120
Speaker 13: that issue.

1108
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 1: And I so I'm.

1109
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,399
Speaker 13: Just saying that maybe that's my memory, and maybe I'm selectively,

1110
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 13: you know, choosing what I remember and I what I don't,

1111
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,640
Speaker 13: But I do remember him like candidly.

1112
00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:54,839
Speaker 1: It was Charlie's Twitter feed.

1113
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 13: It was just like clip after clip after clip, and

1114
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,160
Speaker 13: it ended up, you know, proving to be accurate.

1115
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,239
Speaker 10: He's manic. He goes back and forth on a twenty

1116
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 10: four hour basis the video that you the video that

1117
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:05,759
Speaker 10: you reposted.

1118
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:08,920
Speaker 23: Not twenty four hours before, he had just posted another

1119
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 23: video about how awful the strike polled and the public,

1120
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,800
Speaker 23: and then he went back immediately after and did another

1121
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,319
Speaker 23: video within a day of which is the one that

1122
00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 23: you posted.

1123
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 10: This is what they do, guys, all right, and think about.

1124
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:23,120
Speaker 23: It in terms of COVID, because it's like one of

1125
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 23: the best examples of what the media does and people

1126
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 23: like we call them over here the election mafia, right,

1127
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 23: So Harry Enton, Nate Silver, oh, the Larry Sabado at

1128
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,560
Speaker 23: the Crystal Ball, these guys belong.

1129
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 10: We've long called on our.

1130
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:37,960
Speaker 23: Side the election mafia, and what they'll do is they'll

1131
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,240
Speaker 23: understate somebody like Trump's great.

1132
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,560
Speaker 10: They'll understate Trump's approval rating.

1133
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,200
Speaker 23: Way below where it really is, and then when he

1134
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 23: does something stupid that they like, they'll jack is approval

1135
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 23: rating up, like COVID shut down the government, right, and

1136
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,319
Speaker 23: then all of a sudden you'll get polls. You know,

1137
00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:56,839
Speaker 23: Trump's in a majority approval for the first time ever

1138
00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:59,880
Speaker 23: in his administration. They did this in the first administration

1139
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 23: and it was not the smart political thing to do.

1140
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 10: It exposed him politically.

1141
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:08,920
Speaker 23: Then when that vulnerability hits, they'll crash him into the

1142
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 23: thirties and the right falls for it.

1143
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 8: All.

1144
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,680
Speaker 13: Yeah, that's fair, So would you would you? Would you

1145
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 13: say rich though, that Trump's I guess his political backing

1146
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 13: from his supporters is pretty like resilient, it's pretty stable,

1147
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:29,440
Speaker 13: but it's been challenged in this first year and even

1148
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:33,440
Speaker 13: even with the Venezuela strike in new ways. I think,

1149
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:37,280
Speaker 13: you know, because again, foreign policy seems to be the

1150
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 13: hot button topic. Right, It's like, we don't want to

1151
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:42,200
Speaker 13: focus on it, we want to focus domestically, and then

1152
00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 13: when we do, everybody scared of the neo con interventional,

1153
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 13: you know, foreign abstractions rabbit holes that we've we've trailed,

1154
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 13: what we've we've followed in years passed.

1155
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:54,120
Speaker 1: So where are we at right now?

1156
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 13: So Harry Enton says that actually the strike is is

1157
00:57:57,400 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 13: more popular than than we previously thought.

1158
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:04,600
Speaker 23: What you think it's historically it's it's basically the most

1159
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 23: unpopular military action that of its kind. Grenada had eighty

1160
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 23: two percent, even fifty seven percent approved of the military

1161
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,919
Speaker 23: action against Syria that Donald Trump took in his first

1162
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:19,120
Speaker 23: administration in response to what we now probably you know,

1163
00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 23: almost assuredly know we're false flag attacks, right, so historically

1164
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,280
Speaker 23: compared to others, including Iran last year, by the way,

1165
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:30,400
Speaker 23: which was very even you know, very evenly divided among

1166
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 23: the America.

1167
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 1: Where is this that according to your numbers.

1168
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:34,800
Speaker 10: Rich, it's not good.

1169
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,960
Speaker 23: It's negative, It's not horribly negative, but it is negative.

1170
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 23: And the reason why and this is where, like you know,

1171
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,440
Speaker 23: a Republican should like snap out of this like haze

1172
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:47,000
Speaker 23: that they're in. Democrats are never going to believe anything

1173
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:50,439
Speaker 23: that the Trump administration says that Nicholas Maduro did. We're

1174
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 23: asking people not just about the strike, but whether or

1175
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 23: not they even believe the charges against Nicholas Maduro and

1176
00:58:56,120 --> 00:59:00,400
Speaker 23: Democrats don't even believe the charges. So this idea that

1177
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 23: you could get into a solid majority who opposes this

1178
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,320
Speaker 23: is ridiculous. I hate to say it, but we're actually

1179
00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:09,760
Speaker 23: really close to the Washington Post Andrew, and unlike everybody else,

1180
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:12,160
Speaker 23: we didn't drop the numbers right away, and there's a

1181
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:12,840
Speaker 23: reason for that.

1182
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 10: The war drums at the time they're beating.

1183
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 23: War propaganda is always one of the most powerful forms

1184
00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:21,080
Speaker 23: of propaganda you can get, and when you initially pulled,

1185
00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 23: you will get the strongest level of support. Typically then

1186
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 23: you're ever going to see and then that support will

1187
00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 23: decline over time. It happened with Iran as well. Iran

1188
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:32,280
Speaker 23: initial even in some polls the Iran the strikes against

1189
00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 23: Iran's nuclear facilities were pretty popular.

1190
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 10: Not in ours, and we I think we were right

1191
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:38,160
Speaker 10: and they were wrong.

1192
00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 23: But you can even see in those polls that were

1193
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:42,560
Speaker 23: more favorable to that it dips over time.

1194
00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 10: So we didn't want to snap poll it.

1195
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:46,880
Speaker 23: We wanted to get an accurate reflection of how the

1196
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,320
Speaker 23: public digested everything.

1197
00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:50,880
Speaker 10: The question is what comes after.

1198
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,000
Speaker 23: This, So people are going to be okay, and this

1199
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:56,240
Speaker 23: is what and just so people understand my own personal

1200
00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 23: views are very different from what I think the you know,

1201
00:59:59,880 --> 01:00:01,720
Speaker 23: the how I think the public sees this, or what

1202
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 23: they're telling us right now. My own personal view is,

1203
01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:05,680
Speaker 23: if you can get if you can get a guy

1204
01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:07,920
Speaker 23: like that out of there Andrew with a limited strike

1205
01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 23: like this, you know, in a limited operation, Intel led operation,

1206
01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 23: get him out of there, and then bring the regime

1207
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 23: to heal.

1208
01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,280
Speaker 10: Take the gold in the oil go ahead, because.

1209
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,120
Speaker 23: We're forty trillion dollars in debt and you need to

1210
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 23: back the Petro dollar. That's my view, that's Rich Barris's view.

1211
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 23: That's not the public view. Unfortunately, they're like they have

1212
01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:29,600
Speaker 23: PTSD over this, brother, you understand, like they have PTSD

1213
01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:32,840
Speaker 23: over this, and the administration sold it like garbage.

1214
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:34,240
Speaker 10: This was the easiest sell.

1215
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:39,120
Speaker 23: Look, they stole our oil a few years ago, you know, Joe.

1216
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 10: You know the Democrats were too you know, George Bush

1217
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:45,240
Speaker 10: actually was the wiener here, but they were too weak

1218
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 10: to do anything about it.

1219
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:49,560
Speaker 23: I'm not I'm taking it back because China and Iran

1220
01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 23: can't have it, period, end of story.

1221
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:53,480
Speaker 10: And we're not going to nation build. That's what we're

1222
01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 10: gonna do. Don't give the public some.

1223
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,680
Speaker 23: Garbage rehatch version of the failed War on drugs, which

1224
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 23: they aff at and think is ridiculous. Don't and don't

1225
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 23: insult their intelligence like that. Come out and just say

1226
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:08,040
Speaker 23: be the strong man.

1227
01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:09,320
Speaker 10: That you were elected to be.

1228
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:11,480
Speaker 23: You know, we talked about this at the conference quite

1229
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 23: a bit, and especially voters under forty five, they don't

1230
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 23: care if he acts like a Franco. They don't care.

1231
01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 23: They want it. They want so be that guy, and

1232
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 23: don't ex you know, that's it. I'm not gonna explain myself.

1233
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:27,720
Speaker 23: I personally want Greenland. Don't explain yourself over Greenland. We

1234
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 23: have to colonize space and the United States has to

1235
01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 23: lead that effort. Guess what we need Greenland to do it? Tough,

1236
01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:35,160
Speaker 23: end of story. And you don't even have to do

1237
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,000
Speaker 23: that when military action so and the.

1238
01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 10: Public wouldn't even care.

1239
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,480
Speaker 23: I don't think that much about that because the question

1240
01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 23: of what comes next is less of a you know,

1241
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:48,000
Speaker 23: a very concerning question, right, I mean, you can leave

1242
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:51,360
Speaker 23: people in charge there that obviously Western values hold our

1243
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 23: same belief systems, right, have been in the international order

1244
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 23: for a long time, So there's no there's less of

1245
01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:01,680
Speaker 23: a danger of this this crisis and destabilization.

1246
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:04,520
Speaker 1: So again, I think that's I think that's well said.

1247
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 1: I think that's well said. Rich.

1248
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 13: We're going to continue on with you in the break,

1249
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 13: So don't go anywhere more with Rich Bears.

1250
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 1: We'll be right back, all right.

1251
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 13: We are back in the stream with Rich Barris. We

1252
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 13: never have enough time with Rich. Yeah, yeah, blow the

1253
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:32,440
Speaker 13: brakes here.

1254
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:35,720
Speaker 24: I just want to I guess I want to ask

1255
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:39,200
Speaker 24: a little more on this. As you say, you say,

1256
01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:44,040
Speaker 24: Harry Nten and others, they directly manipulate the polls to

1257
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 24: manipulate Trump. I guess that struck me as a very

1258
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,960
Speaker 24: strong claim, like how many people are involved in this decision?

1259
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:52,400
Speaker 1: How do they do it?

1260
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:56,160
Speaker 24: And because that's like a big swing, and I just feel,

1261
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:58,880
Speaker 24: among other things, I feel like there'd probably be whistleblowers

1262
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 24: from these organizations.

1263
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:02,960
Speaker 13: Yes, you palked to this a lot of independent editorial

1264
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 13: decisions too, but yeah, go ahead, d yeah.

1265
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,120
Speaker 23: I mean, the fact is that my industry is completely

1266
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,760
Speaker 23: dominated by leftists. I mean, guys, I literally created the

1267
01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:14,520
Speaker 23: polling critic industry. It was like me and that was

1268
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:17,120
Speaker 23: it for years. That has grown over the years now,

1269
01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 23: and thank god it has. But if you're somebody like me,

1270
01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:22,480
Speaker 23: and you come up like, look, I think you're understating

1271
01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:23,800
Speaker 23: Republican shares of the vote.

1272
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:25,080
Speaker 10: You get ostracized.

1273
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 23: Right, So these guys the entden average, for instance, or

1274
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 23: the d in aggregate that he pushed the entire cycle,

1275
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:34,000
Speaker 23: excluded most of the polls that got the election correct,

1276
01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:37,360
Speaker 23: including ours. So you know, when you got to watch

1277
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,360
Speaker 23: that little writing when he puts up on the screen

1278
01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:41,200
Speaker 23: underneath then and aggregate.

1279
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:42,600
Speaker 10: Or whatever poll he's talking about, you better.

1280
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 23: Look damn close at what he's citing and where he's

1281
01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:47,760
Speaker 23: getting it from. Because all of the people who not

1282
01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:52,160
Speaker 23: fairly but accurately have predicted the outcome of elections in

1283
01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:55,760
Speaker 23: the Trump era are excluded from most of enton stuff.

1284
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,800
Speaker 23: You will never see him site, you know, one of

1285
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:02,320
Speaker 23: the guys who are part of our association. That will

1286
01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:05,760
Speaker 23: never happen on CNN. Right, So go back and look

1287
01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 23: at how some of these polsters fared in twenty four

1288
01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:11,120
Speaker 23: They know it the evidence of what they have been Look,

1289
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,000
Speaker 23: even if you are pretending that this was just a

1290
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:18,560
Speaker 23: you know, a difference of opinion on who should be

1291
01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:21,280
Speaker 23: cited and who should not be, or what kind of

1292
01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:24,400
Speaker 23: data collection modes make the pole more accurate make that

1293
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:28,040
Speaker 23: polster more accurate, and it's a methodological you know, discussion

1294
01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:30,160
Speaker 23: or debate. Even if we were going to pretend for

1295
01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:32,560
Speaker 23: a second that that was true, which it's not anymore.

1296
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,680
Speaker 23: I pretended for the first five years of my career

1297
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:37,200
Speaker 23: it's not true. But even if we were to, the

1298
01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:41,400
Speaker 23: evidence built up over many years and it became overwhelming,

1299
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 23: they continue to do it intentionally, and no one's going

1300
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 23: to call them on it because various things go on

1301
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:51,880
Speaker 23: as group think. There's being afraid to get contracts, losing

1302
01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,720
Speaker 23: a contract with the media outlet, and in the industry

1303
01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,960
Speaker 23: post twenty four they've consolidated a lot.

1304
01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 10: So Reuters, Yahoo see.

1305
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 23: They're all using the same online panel on same data

1306
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:04,720
Speaker 23: set as you Gov.

1307
01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:08,080
Speaker 13: I believe, I believe it Rich, I believe it absolutely

1308
01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:11,040
Speaker 13: that that they they You know, I think Harry Enton's

1309
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:12,840
Speaker 13: not as bad as you think he is, but I

1310
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:15,560
Speaker 13: do think he probably you know, he plays.

1311
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:18,280
Speaker 1: Both sides that much. I can see. Until it's rue more.

1312
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:27,600
Speaker 13: Rich, we're gonna welcome back real America's voice just a second, all.

1313
01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:27,960
Speaker 1: Right, Blake.

1314
01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:31,680
Speaker 13: How much private student loan debt is labeled as defaulted

1315
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:32,240
Speaker 13: or distressed?

1316
01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:34,600
Speaker 1: The forty five billion billion.

1317
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:37,800
Speaker 13: That's a lot of money, man, that's like more than

1318
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:42,840
Speaker 13: that's like, that's like five Somalia Minnesota fraud rings.

1319
01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:44,640
Speaker 1: Think about it that way, Yeah about it.

1320
01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 13: That's five Samala Somali Minnesota freud rings.

1321
01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:48,600
Speaker 1: That we know of.

1322
01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:53,240
Speaker 13: By the way, that's typically typically in Washington, Yeah, yo,

1323
01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:58,200
Speaker 13: New York, California. Why Refight is not a debt settlement company,

1324
01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:00,919
Speaker 13: and they work with each borrow individually, tailoring each loan

1325
01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 13: to each borrow specific situation. When you find yourself with

1326
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:07,680
Speaker 13: private student loan that loans that are labeled as distressed

1327
01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 13: or defaulted, you are gonna want to call them asap.

1328
01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:14,840
Speaker 13: They are not in all fifty states, but if they

1329
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,240
Speaker 13: are in your state and you find yourself in this situation,

1330
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,400
Speaker 13: you gotta call them. They are great patriots, great people,

1331
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,080
Speaker 13: genuinely great people with their hearts in the right place,

1332
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,200
Speaker 13: and they want to help this country. Obviously, they have

1333
01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 13: a business to run, but they do it in such

1334
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,919
Speaker 13: a way it's gonna put your interest first and help

1335
01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:34,000
Speaker 13: you get out from underneath this financial predicament that you

1336
01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,280
Speaker 13: find yourself in. They are even let you skip a

1337
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:39,520
Speaker 13: payment every six months up to twelve times without penalty.

1338
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:43,040
Speaker 13: They are going to ensure an interest rate under six

1339
01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:46,120
Speaker 13: percent and give you monthly payments that are affordable that

1340
01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 13: you can manage. Got to take control of your financial situation.

1341
01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 13: That is the difference between victims and victor's. That is

1342
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:54,560
Speaker 13: the difference between people. They're gonna have a bright future

1343
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:56,920
Speaker 13: and a miserable one. So you got to take advantage

1349
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,760
Speaker 13: pretty i would say, middle of the road approach on

1350
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:18,439
Speaker 13: the Venezuela thing. I'm going to show my cards. There

1351
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:23,080
Speaker 13: is something and I and I I watched uh Mike Cernovich,

1352
01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:25,800
Speaker 13: who's a friend of the show, kind of give his take.

1353
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 1: Why he why he supported it. I supported I support it. Yeah,

1354
01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 1: I support it.

1355
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:36,600
Speaker 13: And I'm surprised that I support it because Charlie and

1356
01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:40,000
Speaker 13: I spent years railing against the military industrial complex. We're

1357
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:42,600
Speaker 13: gonna have Secretary of War Pete Hegseth on next. We're

1358
01:07:42,640 --> 01:07:47,800
Speaker 13: gonna talk about this that I've devoted Basically, the majority

1359
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 13: of my adult political life to railing against the war machine.

1360
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,240
Speaker 1: And but this is different. This is the Monroe doctrine

1361
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 1: and the way you.

1362
01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:59,600
Speaker 13: Boil it don doctrine, don Roe doctrine, do the way

1363
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 13: you boil it down, I thought was brilliant. We want

1364
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:07,960
Speaker 13: our oil back. I'm not making excuses for it. Iran, China, Russia,

1365
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 13: you have no place in this hemisphere. Get the hell

1366
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:13,760
Speaker 13: out our this is our backyard. We're not going to

1367
01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:15,800
Speaker 13: be suffering fools any longer. We're not going to be

1368
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:16,679
Speaker 13: playing patty cake.

1369
01:08:17,160 --> 01:08:17,599
Speaker 1: Get out.

1370
01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:19,639
Speaker 13: This is our oil. We're going to take the revenues.

1371
01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:22,080
Speaker 13: We're enriching the homeland, We're securing our defenses.

1372
01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:24,120
Speaker 1: That's why I like it.

1373
01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 13: You know, obviously the proof is in the putting how

1374
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:30,519
Speaker 13: this plays out. But is there a chance based on

1375
01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:32,680
Speaker 13: you know, where you see the base at, where you

1376
01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:34,960
Speaker 13: see Trump voters at, that we can turn this into

1377
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:39,400
Speaker 13: a win politically from a polling standpoint, I do.

1378
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,600
Speaker 23: I think there's a way to really give the American

1379
01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 23: people a vision because right now Republicans one of the

1380
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,600
Speaker 23: main reasons they're losing, And we can get into some

1381
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:51,800
Speaker 23: of the gripes that certain factions within the coalition have

1382
01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:52,880
Speaker 23: but one of them.

1383
01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:55,439
Speaker 10: I would say the main reason that they.

1384
01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:58,320
Speaker 23: Have they lost in twenty five and we go into

1385
01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 23: twenty six with them being the underdoe is that they

1386
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:04,479
Speaker 23: don't have a vision. They haven't given the American public

1387
01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,639
Speaker 23: an idea of what's the agenda for this year, what's

1388
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 23: the agenda for the country. And I think this is

1389
01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:12,920
Speaker 23: actually a really good opportunity. And I think the interview

1390
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:16,639
Speaker 23: with Cernovich on Tucker was just great because I think Mike,

1391
01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:18,960
Speaker 23: whether you agree with him right now or not, guys,

1392
01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:22,080
Speaker 23: I think what Mike started to do was lay out

1393
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:24,479
Speaker 23: what kind of a vision you could give to the

1394
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:28,440
Speaker 23: American public and give you know, which could look. Americans

1395
01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:30,880
Speaker 23: are dying for something to believe in. Again, guys, they

1396
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,679
Speaker 23: really are. And I'm not saying that we should start

1397
01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:36,320
Speaker 23: toppling governments one by one in the Western hemisphere. But

1398
01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:42,599
Speaker 23: Reagan understood something about the unique identity of Americans and

1399
01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:45,320
Speaker 23: you know what it meant to be an American, and

1400
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 23: it's optimistic, it's forward thinking, and for so many years,

1401
01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:52,080
Speaker 23: one of the reasons for Trump's success is that forget

1402
01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:55,680
Speaker 23: about a malaise they've been in the gutter thinking, you know,

1403
01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,040
Speaker 23: hopelessness with hopelessness and despair.

1404
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:01,240
Speaker 10: Right, and some p people look at you know.

1405
01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:04,240
Speaker 23: Especially younger people, they look at the situation you just

1406
01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,880
Speaker 23: brought up during the break. You know, student loan debt,

1407
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,960
Speaker 23: we have national debt, we have credit card debt, we

1408
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 23: can't afford homes.

1409
01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:15,280
Speaker 13: Right, there is countries getting invaded rich that's the time.

1410
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:17,840
Speaker 13: I mean, I tell you that is the single most

1411
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:20,559
Speaker 13: demoralizing aspect of modern American life. Is that you look

1412
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:22,360
Speaker 13: at you look across the street, and you don't recognize

1413
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:24,360
Speaker 13: your neighbors. You go to the DMV, you don't recognize

1414
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:26,800
Speaker 13: your neighbors. You go to on an airplane, you don't

1415
01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:30,320
Speaker 13: recognize your neighbors. And there is something insidious about this, Blake.

1416
01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,040
Speaker 13: I would love to build this out from a data standing.

1417
01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:35,839
Speaker 13: At some point there is something about when your country

1418
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:40,599
Speaker 13: gets invaded by foreigners where American families stop or whatever

1419
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:43,120
Speaker 13: the country is, stop having babies and stop.

1420
01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:47,320
Speaker 1: Believing like mass immigration lowers fertility. Country doesn't. It's not

1421
01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:51,240
Speaker 1: the doesn't have a lot, South Creed doesn't have a lot,

1422
01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:54,200
Speaker 1: and they're lower than but Switzerland. So it's not the

1423
01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:55,440
Speaker 1: only factor.

1424
01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 13: But there's something insidious about it, and demoralizing about it.

1425
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:02,639
Speaker 13: And this is why I constantly harp on the issue

1426
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:05,840
Speaker 13: of immigration. I think it is visceral. I think there

1427
01:11:05,920 --> 01:11:08,320
Speaker 13: is a you know, we talk about illegal and you

1428
01:11:08,360 --> 01:11:10,880
Speaker 13: still get these boomer cons that say, you know, oh,

1429
01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:14,880
Speaker 13: I support legal immigration and I'm just anti No, Like, nope,

1430
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:18,120
Speaker 13: We've had too much. We've had too much, and we

1431
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:22,679
Speaker 13: are watching the eraser of American culture before our eyes.

1432
01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:26,960
Speaker 13: We are watching the communities that remind us of America

1433
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:30,720
Speaker 13: shrink and get like these enclaves get shrunk. And it's

1434
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:32,519
Speaker 13: not about skin color, by the way. I think it's

1435
01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:35,160
Speaker 13: about pre modern and postmodern. I'm gonna build this idea

1436
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:38,519
Speaker 13: out too. But it's people that see the economic system

1437
01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:40,680
Speaker 13: as an opportunity to get ahead and those who view

1438
01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:43,639
Speaker 13: it as a as a extraction tool to oppress people.

1439
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:46,439
Speaker 13: That's the dividing line. Because if you look at the

1440
01:11:46,479 --> 01:11:50,880
Speaker 13: American opportunity as a chance to enrich you, yourself, and

1441
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,800
Speaker 13: your family and the future generations that come after you,

1442
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,000
Speaker 13: then you will be a contributing member of this society.

1443
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:59,320
Speaker 13: If you look at America as an extraction machine operation

1444
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:02,880
Speaker 13: like the SAMA do pre modern, then you're gonna You're

1445
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 13: gonna treat us as oppressors, and you're gonna try and

1446
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:07,200
Speaker 13: take back the wealth that you think was wrongly stolen

1447
01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:09,880
Speaker 13: by the white man. Rich Barris one minute, final word.

1448
01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:12,040
Speaker 23: Yeah, if you if you look at what you just

1449
01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 23: the the chart or the graphic that Donald Trump put

1450
01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:18,520
Speaker 23: out on the Truth the other day about these populations

1451
01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:20,360
Speaker 23: and how much they take, right, what are the percentage,

1452
01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:24,240
Speaker 23: what are the household percentages receiving benefits from the country,

1453
01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:27,480
Speaker 23: And there is this feeling, and if you're a domestic population,

1454
01:12:27,800 --> 01:12:30,240
Speaker 23: it does give you this sense of you know, I'm

1455
01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:30,879
Speaker 23: just losing.

1456
01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:32,320
Speaker 10: We're just losing.

1457
01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,640
Speaker 23: Because you can see that people come in here and

1458
01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:38,080
Speaker 23: they don't have the attitude you have. You want to thrive,

1459
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:40,960
Speaker 23: right where these populations want to come in, they want

1460
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:42,360
Speaker 23: to survive and they want it like you said, they

1461
01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:43,879
Speaker 23: want to extract, right.

1462
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:46,320
Speaker 1: So it's they want to build.

1463
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:47,479
Speaker 10: Yeah, that's right.

1464
01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:52,840
Speaker 23: Well, while domestic us born citizens don't because well, of

1465
01:12:52,880 --> 01:12:56,040
Speaker 23: course we all have criminal populations, criminal elements, but that

1466
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 23: largely that's not what we're talking about here, right, We're

1467
01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:01,880
Speaker 23: talking about people who are trying to be good citizens

1468
01:13:01,920 --> 01:13:04,479
Speaker 23: and then just constantly beat it down by the system

1469
01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:05,960
Speaker 23: that they're fleecing.

1470
01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:07,120
Speaker 10: It just come on.

1471
01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:09,599
Speaker 23: I mean, it's not hard to understand why people had

1472
01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 23: this sense. It's like cloud, this dark blanket come over

1473
01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:14,920
Speaker 23: them that the future is bleak. So again, I think

1474
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:17,800
Speaker 23: this is this can be used as an opportunity to

1475
01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:20,320
Speaker 23: turn this into like an American resurgence.

1476
01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,280
Speaker 10: It's just has to be done right in exactly.

1477
01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 13: I mean, there is a sense. I even looked at

1478
01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:26,080
Speaker 13: Blake in one of the breaks. I said, I'm loving

1479
01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:29,720
Speaker 13: this sort of unapologetic Yeah, we're gonna take Greenland. Yeah

1480
01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:31,800
Speaker 13: we're gonna, We're gonna we're gonna seize the rush of

1481
01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:34,479
Speaker 13: it depends. I'm just saying I like the vibe. I

1482
01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:38,439
Speaker 13: like the energy. It's resurgent. Thank you, rich Bars, you're

1512
01:15:09,200 --> 01:15:12,800
Speaker 27: we are following the developing situation in Minneapolis involving an

1513
01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:17,599
Speaker 27: ice officer who shot and killed a person there in

1514
01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:19,880
Speaker 27: that city. We're gonna take you to some video of

1515
01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:21,960
Speaker 27: the scene as we try to get you more information.

1516
01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:27,720
Speaker 27: Federal officials are saying that the officers were conducting targeted operations.

1517
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,960
Speaker 27: That's a quote from Ice. They say rioters at some

1518
01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:35,080
Speaker 27: point blocked the officers, and one of those rioters excuse me,

1519
01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:38,600
Speaker 27: weaponized her vehicle in an attempt to run over the

1520
01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:42,920
Speaker 27: law enforcement officers and quote attempt to kill them. That's

1521
01:15:42,960 --> 01:15:45,839
Speaker 27: when that officer then pulled out a gun and fired

1522
01:15:45,880 --> 01:15:49,599
Speaker 27: into the vehicle, ultimately killing the woman. Ice is saying

1523
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:55,599
Speaker 27: that this officer fired defensive shots to save himself and

1524
01:15:55,680 --> 01:16:00,840
Speaker 27: his officers, again ultimately killing the woman. By the way,

1525
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:05,320
Speaker 27: Christy Nome, Homeland Security Secretary, is in Minneapolis.

1526
01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:06,800

Speaker 13: Got the video up there. As soon as he sits down,

1538
01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:50,240
Speaker 13: we're gonna take him. You have sent over a lot

1539
01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:52,759
Speaker 13: of questions. Blake has been filtering through them. We've added

1540
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:54,920
Speaker 13: them to the list. We're gonna get it to as

1541
01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:57,799
Speaker 13: many of them as as we can. Yeah, so, Secretary,

1542
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:01,440
Speaker 13: he obviously a busy, busy man. Lots of questions about Venezuela,

1543
01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:05,840
Speaker 13: lots of questions about what's going on with Greenland. There's

1544
01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:08,519
Speaker 13: been rumors that the US is open to military force

1545
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:12,080
Speaker 13: to take Greenland and how else do you want to

1546
01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:15,559
Speaker 13: put that? But we Blake, why don't you set up

1547
01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:16,479
Speaker 13: the next clip for us here?

1548
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:19,080
Speaker 24: But also we will have this ready to go so

1549
01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:21,080
Speaker 24: we can ask him about it once he sits down.

1550
01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:23,560
Speaker 24: But there's this big obviously, there's been a lot of

1551
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:26,320
Speaker 24: stuff about Greenland after the Venezuela thing, because there's chatter

1552
01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:30,120
Speaker 24: which the administration is encouraged that, Okay, we're we're flexing

1553
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:31,560
Speaker 24: our muscle in this hemisphere.

1554
01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:34,480
Speaker 1: Could that mean will make a bid for Greenland?

1555
01:17:34,760 --> 01:17:37,120
Speaker 24: And there's debate whether it would be just seizing it

1556
01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:39,559
Speaker 24: or Now there's also backroom, we really just.

1557
01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:41,240
Speaker 1: Want to buy it all of that.

1558
01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:45,880
Speaker 24: Anyway, this's got a lot of attention because Denmark's Prime

1559
01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:50,479
Speaker 24: minister reacted to this and basically said, if the US

1560
01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,560
Speaker 24: goes after Greenland, an effect of this is going to

1561
01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:54,879
Speaker 24: be it's going to be the end of the NATO alliance.

1562
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:57,040
Speaker 1: Let's play too forty six.

1563
01:17:58,120 --> 01:18:01,519
Speaker 6: Firstly, I believe that the America President should be taken

1564
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:04,559
Speaker 6: seriously when he says that he wants Greenland. But I

1565
01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:07,080
Speaker 6: also want to make it clear that if the United

1566
01:18:07,080 --> 01:18:11,799
Speaker 6: States chooses to attack another NATO country militarily, then everything stops,

1567
01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,840
Speaker 6: that is including our NATO and thus the security that

1568
01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:18,679
Speaker 6: has been provided since the end of the Second World War. Yes,

1569
01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:22,280
Speaker 6: I believe in democracy, and I believe in the international rules.

1570
01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:24,719
Speaker 6: Of course, I also believe that you do not change

1571
01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:27,880
Speaker 6: borders by force, either one way or another. It is

1572
01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:30,679
Speaker 6: not only the position of Denmark and the Danish Kingdom,

1573
01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 6: fortunately of Europe too.

1574
01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:34,320
Speaker 1: So I hope that the people will also.

1575
01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:37,479
Speaker 6: Take note of the once again significant European support so

1576
01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:38,439
Speaker 6: that we are receiving.

1577
01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:44,839
Speaker 13: Yeah, after which Trump truthed that America will always support

1578
01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:47,320
Speaker 13: and have NATO's back, even if they never have our back,

1579
01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:50,760
Speaker 13: and after he bragged that he got them to spend

1580
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:51,639
Speaker 13: two percent to five.

1581
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:54,040
Speaker 1: Percent GDP, which is fair, that's what we've wanted.

1582
01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:57,200
Speaker 24: Yeah, absolutely, I think it's worth because I think some

1583
01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:00,840
Speaker 24: people have responded to this with some chest thumbing, like

1584
01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:03,599
Speaker 24: there's a lot of attitude. I think this is what

1585
01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:06,599
Speaker 24: part of what Stephen Miller said when he was on CNN,

1586
01:19:06,640 --> 01:19:09,479
Speaker 24: he said Denmark can't stop us from taking it, which

1587
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:12,280
Speaker 24: is true, but some people have actually just emb on

1588
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:15,280
Speaker 24: X Mostly people have embraced this attitude of that's all

1589
01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:18,640
Speaker 24: that matters is whether they can stop us or not,

1590
01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:21,360
Speaker 24: and that that's all it reduces to. And I guess

1591
01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:24,040
Speaker 24: I would caution people from going really far down that

1592
01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:27,519
Speaker 24: rabbit hole. First of all, it's not ever been America's way,

1593
01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:30,280
Speaker 24: even when we were, you know, the global unquestioned superpower,

1594
01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:32,559
Speaker 24: not in declined anyway, It's not been our way to

1595
01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:35,519
Speaker 24: just bully weaker nations.

1596
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:39,040
Speaker 1: To beat them up. That's not really a great long

1597
01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:40,120
Speaker 1: term play for America.

1598
01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:44,360
Speaker 24: Like what's greatly been to America's benefit historically is a

1599
01:19:44,439 --> 01:19:47,400
Speaker 24: lot of nations far weaker than us have been willing

1600
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,000
Speaker 24: to work with us, have been willing to just accede

1601
01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:52,720
Speaker 24: to our leadership, and that led us in a dumb

1602
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:55,080
Speaker 24: way where we just started to put other countries' interests

1603
01:19:55,479 --> 01:19:57,960
Speaker 24: first over ours, where we just did dumb things, where

1604
01:19:57,960 --> 01:20:01,920
Speaker 24: we're funneling endless foreign aid to crappy countries that don't

1605
01:20:02,040 --> 01:20:05,040
Speaker 24: like us and are taking advantage of us. But I

1606
01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:06,880
Speaker 24: don't think you swing back the other way and you just,

1607
01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:10,840
Speaker 24: for example, dissolve NATO because you feel like making your

1608
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:12,120
Speaker 24: image on a Matt Bigger.

1609
01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:13,000
Speaker 6: No.

1610
01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:16,400
Speaker 13: I mean, listen, I think you have to ask the question,

1611
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,760
Speaker 13: how would we acquire Greenland. You've got to involve the people. Yeah, right,

1612
01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:22,160
Speaker 13: it should be done by vote. I think, you know.

1613
01:20:22,320 --> 01:20:25,320
Speaker 24: I think the way you do it is you were

1614
01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:28,360
Speaker 24: you just make the pitch I think one thing that's

1615
01:20:28,400 --> 01:20:31,040
Speaker 24: been an issue is we've been it's almost been too

1616
01:20:31,080 --> 01:20:33,680
Speaker 24: attractive to just again chest thump and say like, oh we.

1617
01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:35,080
Speaker 1: Could easily do it, which we could.

1618
01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:36,320
Speaker 24: But I think the way you make it a long

1619
01:20:36,400 --> 01:20:38,840
Speaker 24: term play is you point out it is a win win.

1620
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,360
Speaker 24: You can say Denmark, you just talk about how Denmark

1621
01:20:41,360 --> 01:20:43,400
Speaker 24: is a great ally. They actually have been. They have

1622
01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:46,439
Speaker 24: spent month, they've ponied up for Ukraine, whereas other countries, haven't.

1623
01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:48,400
Speaker 1: They sent troops to Afghanistan.

1624
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:50,800
Speaker 24: They had more troops die per capita in Afghanistan than

1625
01:20:50,800 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 24: I think any of our allies. And they've been a

1626
01:20:54,320 --> 01:20:56,759
Speaker 24: good ally to us. And they're also the European country

1627
01:20:56,800 --> 01:20:59,559
Speaker 24: that restricts immigration. Like, they're good on a lot of ways.

1628
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:01,679
Speaker 24: So we talk about how Denmark is a great ally,

1629
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:05,720
Speaker 24: and Denmark has taken on this burden of supporting Greenland.

1630
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:08,040
Speaker 1: Well, they spend four billion dollars a yeay, yeah, they

1631
01:21:08,080 --> 01:21:08,840
Speaker 1: spend a ton of money.

1632
01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:11,800
Speaker 24: It's not really a very profitable endeavor in any way.

1633
01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:15,599
Speaker 24: It's as a big welfare sink for them. They spend

1634
01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:18,280
Speaker 24: a lot on this, and for us it would be

1635
01:21:18,320 --> 01:21:20,160
Speaker 24: a far more trivial amount of money to spend. So

1636
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:21,600
Speaker 24: we could increase the amount of money, so we can

1637
01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:23,960
Speaker 24: say it's good for Greenland, we can develop you more,

1638
01:21:24,080 --> 01:21:27,040
Speaker 24: we can give you more money. It's good for Denmark,

1639
01:21:27,040 --> 01:21:29,240
Speaker 24: you're getting this off of your books, and it's good

1640
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:31,200
Speaker 24: for America because we have a long term certainty of

1641
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:34,320
Speaker 24: owning Greenland, we have that long term military security, we

1642
01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:36,760
Speaker 24: can potentially develop the natural resources with.

1643
01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:38,920
Speaker 1: More natural resources.

1644
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:42,080
Speaker 24: Is that's the pitch you make if you say when

1645
01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:43,919
Speaker 24: when when for everyone involved?

1646
01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:46,440
Speaker 13: And then we get our oil lands back in Venezuela.

1647
01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:48,800
Speaker 13: We're talking about and by the way, we have secretary

1648
01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:52,320
Speaker 13: right on the show tomorrow Energy Secretary of the United States,

1649
01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:56,439
Speaker 13: So we're going to be talking all about Venezuelan oil.

1650
01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,680
Speaker 13: What's at stake, what could we benefit from, how much

1651
01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:02,679
Speaker 13: money could we make, how much money would be would

1652
01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:06,559
Speaker 13: flow back into the hands of the Venezuelan people. We

1653
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:09,920
Speaker 13: are monitoring the situation. Secretary Headsets should be sitting down

1654
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:13,280
Speaker 13: in just a second, Blake. What are some of the

1655
01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:16,040
Speaker 13: questions that people want to ask? Secretary Headsets.

1656
01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:19,439
Speaker 24: Some people really wanted to ask what was this one?

1657
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:24,720
Speaker 24: Danny sent us one one moment. Uh crap, there's so

1658
01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:26,720
Speaker 24: many in the There's a lot, you guys, there's a

1659
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:27,280
Speaker 24: lot we got.

1660
01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:28,360
Speaker 1: We literally got like eight.

1661
01:22:28,280 --> 01:22:31,920
Speaker 24: Questions all at once, and so and more have flowed

1662
01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:37,479
Speaker 24: in since then. Let's see, someone really wanted to know,

1663
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:40,120
Speaker 24: what are your thoughts on the Russian sending a submarine

1664
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:42,640
Speaker 24: to assist the Russian flight oil tanker?

1665
01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:44,920
Speaker 13: Wasn't much because the I think, you know what, I

1666
01:22:45,320 --> 01:22:47,719
Speaker 13: believe that the Russian submarine, by the way I've looked

1667
01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:51,600
Speaker 13: into this was basically doing surveillance ahead of where the

1668
01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:56,120
Speaker 13: this tanker evaded a blockade, probably with the help of

1669
01:22:56,360 --> 01:22:59,240
Speaker 13: additional resources provided by the Russian I.

1670
01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:01,400
Speaker 24: Like this question from heaven. What is the Department of

1671
01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:04,000
Speaker 24: War done to correct shipbuilding problems in the US Navy.

1672
01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:05,560
Speaker 24: We've covered that, we had a guest on at the

1673
01:23:05,600 --> 01:23:08,559
Speaker 24: start of the year. We're not building ships very well.

1674
01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:11,599
Speaker 24: When America won World War Two, we could famously build

1675
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:12,840
Speaker 24: a ship in a single day.

1676
01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:14,439
Speaker 1: We did it once as a publicity stunt.

1677
01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:17,840
Speaker 24: We built a Liberty ship from nothing to finished vessel

1678
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:19,519
Speaker 24: twenty four hours fast.

1679
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:21,479
Speaker 1: And we could literally build ships.

1680
01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:24,439
Speaker 24: We could build ships faster than the Japanese and the

1681
01:23:24,439 --> 01:23:28,000
Speaker 24: Germans could sink them. And now China can build ships

1682
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:29,400
Speaker 24: faster than we would be able to sink them.

1683
01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:31,320
Speaker 1: Well, that's certainly true, probably faster.

1684
01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:32,800
Speaker 24: Than we could build the missiles that would blow them up.

1685
01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:34,320
Speaker 24: And they can build missiles faster than us.

1686
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:36,639
Speaker 13: It's not so we're going to be asking about these

1687
01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:40,880
Speaker 13: seized vessels. We're going to be asking about you know,

1688
01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 13: what is the military obligation in Venezuela to If we're

1689
01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:48,360
Speaker 13: going to be running Venezuela, is there a military obligation

1690
01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:50,640
Speaker 13: and what is the extent of that obligation.

1691
01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:53,360
Speaker 1: We're going to be asking about.

1692
01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:59,000
Speaker 13: You know, do we have proof that Iran, China, Russia

1693
01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:02,200
Speaker 13: are still on the ground in Venezuela. Are they fomenting descent?

1694
01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:06,240
Speaker 13: Are they fomenting factions? You know, we're gonna be talking

1695
01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:08,200
Speaker 13: about Greenland and if we can get to it, we're

1696
01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:09,800
Speaker 13: going to find out how many push ups and pull

1697
01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:13,040
Speaker 13: ups Secretary of Heagseth can do, which is what everybody

1698
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:15,920
Speaker 13: wants to know. Obviously, Blake and I just want to remember,

1699
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:19,080
Speaker 13: remind everybody one thing here, uh Secretary.

1700
01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:19,839
Speaker 1: So, we did.

1701
01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:24,160
Speaker 13: A flash pole, well straw pole at Amfest. So for

1702
01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:27,720
Speaker 13: our thirty one thousand attendees of Amfest, we asked them

1703
01:24:27,760 --> 01:24:31,280
Speaker 13: who was the most popular secretary? We have that that graphic.

1704
01:24:31,320 --> 01:24:34,120
Speaker 13: I believe Secretary of Hegseth was our most was the

1705
01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:38,840
Speaker 13: most popular cabinet secretary in Trump's administration, according to our

1706
01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:43,439
Speaker 13: attendees at America Fest, which should tell you something.

1707
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:49,000
Speaker 24: Eighty three strong approval and only zero point six percent

1708
01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:50,320
Speaker 24: strong disapproval.

1709
01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:53,360
Speaker 13: That's a pretty that's a pretty favorable crap. However you

1710
01:24:53,400 --> 01:24:54,120
Speaker 13: want to slice it.

1711
01:24:54,720 --> 01:24:54,800
Speaker 28: Uh.

1712
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:58,479
Speaker 13: So again we looks like we're getting some activity here.

1713
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,000
Speaker 13: We will have Secretary head seth on it just a

1714
01:25:01,040 --> 01:25:05,040

1718
01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:18,000

01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:20,479
Speaker 13: recruiting numbers coming out of the US military that they

1720
01:25:20,479 --> 01:25:22,799
Speaker 13: are through the roof. I want to know exactly where

Speaker 13: those numbers are at all, right, So email us your

1722

Speaker 13: questions Freedom at charliekirk dot com, Freedom at charliekirk dot com.

1723
01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:31,719
Speaker 1: By the way, breaking news, there.

1724
01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:37,240
Speaker 13: Is video now of the shooting incident out of Minneapolis

1725
01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:40,719
Speaker 13: involving an ICE agent. It does appear that the woman

1726
01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:44,840
Speaker 13: was attempting to ram the ICE agent. That video is

1727
01:25:44,880 --> 01:25:47,439
Speaker 13: now circulating online. I would show it to you, except

1728
01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:51,720
Speaker 13: we are still eagerly awaiting the Secretary. So Blake, what

1729
01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:52,599
Speaker 13: else you got for us?

1730
01:25:52,920 --> 01:25:55,040
Speaker 24: Uh, Well, we were going to do this after but

1731
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:56,400
Speaker 24: we might be going right up against the end of

1732
01:25:56,400 --> 01:25:59,080
Speaker 24: the show here. President Trump has announced he's going to

1733
01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:03,559
Speaker 24: be pursuing new measures not clear yet, but to make

1734
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:05,760
Speaker 24: it easier for a single family home. He says, for

1735
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:07,719
Speaker 24: a long time, buying and owning a home was considered

1736
01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:10,160
Speaker 24: the pinnacle of the American dream. It was a reward

1737
01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:12,040
Speaker 24: for working hard and doing the right thing. But because

1738
01:26:12,080 --> 01:26:14,360
Speaker 24: of the record high inflation of Joe Biden and the Democrats,

1739
01:26:14,520 --> 01:26:18,240
Speaker 24: the American dream is increasingly out of reach for many people,

1740
01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:22,519
Speaker 24: especially younger Americans. For that reason, I am immediately taking

1741
01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:27,400
Speaker 24: steps to ban large institutional investors from buying more single

1742
01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:31,479
Speaker 24: family homes, and I will be calling on Congress to

1743
01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:36,599
Speaker 24: codify it. People live in homes, not corporations. I will

1744
01:26:36,600 --> 01:26:39,280
Speaker 24: discuss this topic and more at my speech in Davos

1745
01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:42,040
Speaker 24: in two weeks. I don't know what it's going to be.

1746
01:26:42,080 --> 01:26:44,360
Speaker 24: That is tremendous, and it's exactly what Charlie was.

1747
01:26:44,360 --> 01:26:44,920
Speaker 1: I was gonna say.

1748
01:26:44,920 --> 01:26:46,800
Speaker 13: This is a Charlie Kirk special. So we talk about

1749
01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:49,960
Speaker 13: the gen Z economic moonshot, and it is very clear

1750
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:54,200
Speaker 13: that President Trump is hearing the pushback I were. In

1751
01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:56,040
Speaker 13: just a second, we're going to have the secretary, so

1752
01:26:56,240 --> 01:27:00,200
Speaker 13: just bear with us. One more sec complicated business. But

1753
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:03,439
Speaker 13: this is the economic moonshot that Charlie wanted. This is

1754
01:27:03,479 --> 01:27:05,719
Speaker 13: what he said, we are in a race against the clock.

1755
01:27:05,800 --> 01:27:07,479
Speaker 13: We have to prove that our ideas work and we

1756
01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:10,479
Speaker 13: have to clear away from a policy standpoint to make

1757
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:14,960
Speaker 13: sure that gen Z and let's be honest, generations after

1758
01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:18,840
Speaker 13: are not getting blocked out by institutional investors, foreign buyers.

1759
01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:19,080
Speaker 1: And the like.

1760
01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:25,000
Speaker 13: I am told we are just about ready for the Secretary.

1761
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:27,320
Speaker 1: We got lots of questions. Thank you for sending all

1762
01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:29,840
Speaker 1: your questions. For seconds have to go rapid fire to spam,

1763
01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:34,040
Speaker 1: bam bam. Yeah, we're going to have to studio. Where

1764
01:27:34,040 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 1: are we at.

1765
01:27:37,200 --> 01:27:39,840
Speaker 13: We're ready, We're ready, all right, bring him in, Yeah,

1766
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:42,400
Speaker 13: Secretary Pete Hegseeth Department of War.

1767
01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:45,479
Speaker 1: Welcome, welcome to the show. It's great to see you.

1768
01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:48,040
Speaker 7: Thanks for having me. Appreciate it.

1769
01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:50,479
Speaker 1: Secretary, we'll get right into it.

1770
01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:54,280
Speaker 13: Two tankers have been boarded and apprehended by the US military.

1771
01:27:54,320 --> 01:27:58,080
Speaker 13: A senior Russian lawmakers quoted as saying, this is outright piracy.

1772
01:27:58,600 --> 01:27:59,759
Speaker 13: What do you call these actions?

1773
01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 7: Outright accountability? Actual enforcement.

1774
01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:07,200
Speaker 9: There's been a long time illicit activity emanating from Venezuela

1775
01:28:07,240 --> 01:28:11,240
Speaker 9: around the world. Really, the Dark Fleet's a global enterprise,

1776
01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:15,480
Speaker 9: but Venezuela has used it to transport sanctioned oil flagless

1777
01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:19,320
Speaker 9: vessels that enrich the regime, and we have said a

1778
01:28:19,400 --> 01:28:23,280
Speaker 9: oil blockade is in full effect around Venezuela to ensure

1779
01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:25,280
Speaker 9: that that oil on the dark fleet.

1780
01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:25,920
Speaker 7: Doesn't make it anywhere.

1781
01:28:25,960 --> 01:28:29,120
Speaker 9: So there was one vessel that attempted to move toward

1782
01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:31,559
Speaker 9: Venezuela and when we put the blockade and turned around.

1783
01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:35,320
Speaker 9: So we've been pursuing that one for a couple of weeks. Frankly,

1784
01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:37,240
Speaker 9: just a reminder that we will follow you and when

1785
01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:40,400
Speaker 9: we have the opportunity, we'll ensure you are we seize

1786
01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:42,920
Speaker 9: that vessel, which we did, and then there was another

1787
01:28:42,960 --> 01:28:46,840
Speaker 9: one inside closer to Venezuela and waters this morning at

1788
01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:50,880
Speaker 9: the same time simultaneously that we also confiscated. So this

1789
01:28:50,960 --> 01:28:53,759
Speaker 9: is an ongoing effort. It's in full effect. The pressure

1790
01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:55,759
Speaker 9: is on, and as Marco has laid.

1791
01:28:55,560 --> 01:28:56,680
Speaker 7: Out, we're working with.

1792
01:28:58,200 --> 01:29:01,760
Speaker 9: The Venezuelan government to ensure that there's a new way

1793
01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:05,640
Speaker 9: by which they can process that oil, partnering with the

1794
01:29:05,680 --> 01:29:06,640
Speaker 9: United States.

1795
01:29:06,280 --> 01:29:10,400
Speaker 7: And we're going to continuing enforce it. This blockade is necessary.

1796
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:13,679
Speaker 24: So far, as Secretary, we haven't had any US boots

1797
01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:16,719
Speaker 24: on the ground in Venezuela, but President Trump has said

1798
01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:20,080
Speaker 24: We're going to run the country in some capacity. Is

1799
01:29:20,120 --> 01:29:23,240
Speaker 24: there any possibility that that will take place? And if so,

1800
01:29:23,880 --> 01:29:26,360
Speaker 24: how many what could that situation look like?

1801
01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:29,920
Speaker 9: Well, I think in these cases what the President is

1802
01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:32,840
Speaker 9: so good about is we're not closing doors here, We're

1803
01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:36,000
Speaker 9: not opening doors. We're not revealing to anybody what we

1804
01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:39,160
Speaker 9: will or will not do. The strategic ambiguity is a

1805
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:42,920
Speaker 9: really important thing. Leverage properly it creates opportunities that did

1806
01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:45,840
Speaker 9: not exist before. Just like that raid on Maduro that

1807
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:48,800
Speaker 9: no one in the world anticipated, the most sophisticated raid

1808
01:29:49,120 --> 01:29:52,679
Speaker 9: maybe that's ever happened in military history, changed the entire dynamic.

1809
01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:55,439
Speaker 9: We didn't talk about whether something like that was possible.

1810
01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:58,280
Speaker 9: So what happens next depends a lot on the decisions

1811
01:29:58,320 --> 01:30:02,519
Speaker 9: that are made inside Caracas by leadership. The blockade remains

1812
01:30:02,560 --> 01:30:05,559
Speaker 9: in full effect, the strikes on Narco, Terrace and boats

1813
01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:09,360
Speaker 9: full effect. The pressure continues to ensure that they work

1814
01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:12,120
Speaker 9: with the United States to ensure that that oil and

1815
01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:13,120
Speaker 9: Marco made it clear.

1816
01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:14,480
Speaker 7: The President put out a statement.

1817
01:30:14,240 --> 01:30:18,439
Speaker 9: Yesterday thirty to fifty million barrels of oil to be

1818
01:30:18,520 --> 01:30:20,560
Speaker 9: brought to the United States to be processed to be

1819
01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:24,800
Speaker 9: used properly by the Venezuelans to ensure that that transition

1820
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:28,120
Speaker 9: happens the way that it should. You could see scenarios where, hey,

1821
01:30:28,120 --> 01:30:30,799
Speaker 9: maybe we reopen the embassy and you have got marines

1822
01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:33,360
Speaker 9: there to guard the embassy. You could look at scenarios

1823
01:30:33,360 --> 01:30:37,240
Speaker 9: where there's cooperation, but I wouldn't foreclose anything, and I

1824
01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:40,040
Speaker 9: think it's important not to foreclose anything to make sure

1825
01:30:40,080 --> 01:30:42,600
Speaker 9: that the outcome is one that benefits the interests of

1826
01:30:42,680 --> 01:30:45,160
Speaker 9: the United States in our own hemisphere. This is the

1827
01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:50,759
Speaker 9: Donroe doctrine. This is you know, Russia, Iran, Cuba, others

1828
01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:54,400
Speaker 9: had their tentacles all over Venezuela to exploit it and

1829
01:30:54,439 --> 01:30:57,400
Speaker 9: also to leverage their opportunity to be closer to us

1830
01:30:57,439 --> 01:30:58,200
Speaker 9: and pull those.

1831
01:30:58,160 --> 01:30:59,080
Speaker 7: Energy assets out.

1832
01:30:59,280 --> 01:31:02,960
Speaker 9: We're flipping this ripped, putting America first, controlling our hemisphere,

1833
01:31:03,320 --> 01:31:07,120
Speaker 9: and that action taken on Nicholas Mdurea was the starve it.

1834
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 7: But it's certainly not the end.

1835
01:31:08,720 --> 01:31:12,879
Speaker 13: Secretary, you watched the raid happen live as it was happening,

1836
01:31:13,479 --> 01:31:16,439
Speaker 13: and you mentioned that this is the most sophisticated raid

1837
01:31:16,520 --> 01:31:20,519
Speaker 13: of its kind, probably in who knows living memory. What

1838
01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:23,960
Speaker 13: was it like watching it happened, the apprehension of Madua

1839
01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:26,040
Speaker 13: and his wife, Like, what's the memory that stands out

1840
01:31:26,080 --> 01:31:26,880
Speaker 13: from that moment.

1841
01:31:28,320 --> 01:31:31,360
Speaker 9: The memory that stands out the most for me was

1842
01:31:31,479 --> 01:31:34,680
Speaker 9: watching the drone feed at the end when you could

1843
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:37,800
Speaker 9: see the I won't reveal the exact number, but the

1844
01:31:37,800 --> 01:31:41,960
Speaker 9: helicopters leaving Venezuelan territory over the water, and they looked

1845
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:45,040
Speaker 9: like little ants, little dots on their way out of

1846
01:31:45,080 --> 01:31:48,240
Speaker 9: the country. They have Maduro and his wife, indicted individuals

1847
01:31:48,439 --> 01:31:51,719
Speaker 9: and all the Americans are out safely, had some wounded,

1848
01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:54,800
Speaker 9: but no Kia. That was the enduring image because everything

1849
01:31:54,800 --> 01:31:58,479
Speaker 9: in between. You know, yes, these are the best of

1850
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:01,839
Speaker 9: the best. They're trained for it. In fact, the commanders

1851
01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:04,360
Speaker 9: have said they've never been more supported. They've never felt

1852
01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:06,720
Speaker 9: like they've had better intelligence, They've never had clearer and

1853
01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:08,599
Speaker 9: better authorities, They've never been.

1854
01:32:08,520 --> 01:32:09,719
Speaker 7: Given everything that they need.

1855
01:32:09,880 --> 01:32:11,400
Speaker 9: That's one of the things we're very proud of here

1856
01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:13,679
Speaker 9: at the War Department. We're going to support our fighters,

1857
01:32:13,880 --> 01:32:16,360
Speaker 9: back them up one hundred percent, give them whatever they need,

1858
01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:19,280
Speaker 9: give them the authorities and rules of engagement to be successful.

1859
01:32:19,280 --> 01:32:22,200
Speaker 9: And they had all of that. Still the enemy on

1860
01:32:22,200 --> 01:32:23,920
Speaker 9: the other side gets a vote, and it was a

1861
01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:27,360
Speaker 9: contested raid, even with the sophistication that went into it,

1862
01:32:27,600 --> 01:32:29,919
Speaker 9: and we watched them hover over, we watched the actions

1863
01:32:29,920 --> 01:32:34,599
Speaker 9: on We watched, you know, Venezuelan man pads get shot

1864
01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:36,920
Speaker 9: while they could potentially try to shoot at helicopters.

1865
01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:38,479
Speaker 7: I mean, it was all in real time.

1866
01:32:38,760 --> 01:32:41,680
Speaker 9: But it wasn't until we saw those birds float now

1867
01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:45,519
Speaker 9: that any of us could really exhale the courage it

1868
01:32:45,560 --> 01:32:48,000
Speaker 9: took for the President to authorize it, the sheer courage

1869
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:50,519
Speaker 9: and competency of our men and women in the military.

1870
01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:55,320
Speaker 9: Those those assaulters, that extraction force incredible, the best in

1871
01:32:55,360 --> 01:32:59,920
Speaker 9: the world. They did went downtown without being heard, without being.

1872
01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:03,439
Speaker 7: Seen, with no notice, distracted that indicted individual and brought

1873
01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:04,439
Speaker 7: them back to the United States.

1874
01:33:04,600 --> 01:33:07,000
Speaker 9: Only the United States of America could do this mission,

1875
01:33:07,280 --> 01:33:08,599
Speaker 9: second to none, no doubt.

1876
01:33:08,680 --> 01:33:11,479
Speaker 13: And you even saw that on CNN, mister Secretary, where

1877
01:33:11,640 --> 01:33:14,280
Speaker 13: they were. You had analysts saying that even China and

1878
01:33:14,320 --> 01:33:17,120
Speaker 13: Russia were looking at this going like, wow, this is incredible.

1879
01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:18,880
Speaker 1: So to your point, they've never felt that.

1880
01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:20,759
Speaker 13: Your men and women in the military have never felt

1881
01:33:20,760 --> 01:33:24,680
Speaker 13: more support, more backup. I mean, I know this is

1882
01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:27,160
Speaker 13: hard to quantify, but you came in with a mandate

1883
01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:30,360
Speaker 13: to make the military more lethal. The lethality you said

1884
01:33:30,360 --> 01:33:34,559
Speaker 13: it again and again, fitness, excellence, meritocracy. You know two

1885
01:33:34,640 --> 01:33:37,439
Speaker 13: part question, where are we at now? How much more excellent?

1886
01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:39,320
Speaker 13: How much more lethal are we now than when you

1887
01:33:39,360 --> 01:33:42,000
Speaker 13: took over? And I also I am curious about where

1888
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:44,200
Speaker 13: recruitment stands right now for the US military.

1889
01:33:45,720 --> 01:33:48,640
Speaker 9: Well, we've always had great Americans, right Our job has

1890
01:33:48,680 --> 01:33:51,800
Speaker 9: been to unleash them, to allow them to do their

1891
01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:55,280
Speaker 9: job without tinkering in the way they operate, without more

1892
01:33:55,320 --> 01:33:57,440
Speaker 9: burdensome rules of engagement, without.

1893
01:33:57,240 --> 01:34:00,400
Speaker 7: More political caveats, while act.

1894
01:34:00,280 --> 01:34:02,360
Speaker 9: Giving them the authorities we need. And a lot of

1895
01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:04,360
Speaker 9: that emanated out of speech. I gave it quantico to

1896
01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:08,120
Speaker 9: generals and senior enlisted saying I'm putting commanders back in charge.

1897
01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:11,439
Speaker 9: It's not my job to tell that extraction force exactly

1898
01:34:11,439 --> 01:34:12,439
Speaker 9: how to do it.

1899
01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:14,200
Speaker 7: It's my job to get them what they.

1900
01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:18,160
Speaker 9: Need, insure their standards are clear, they're able to execute

1901
01:34:18,200 --> 01:34:20,800
Speaker 9: at the highest possible level, and unleash them to do

1902
01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:23,639
Speaker 9: what they do best. I mean, that's the reflections I've

1903
01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:27,000
Speaker 9: gotten back from not just special operators, but conventional units,

1904
01:34:27,040 --> 01:34:29,960
Speaker 9: just saying it's a new environment. It's a new vibe,

1905
01:34:30,360 --> 01:34:33,400
Speaker 9: a new aura inside the military where we feel empowered

1906
01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:35,519
Speaker 9: to be the warriors that were supposed to be. We've

1907
01:34:35,520 --> 01:34:38,080
Speaker 9: always been that way, but other things have held us back.

1908
01:34:38,120 --> 01:34:41,960
Speaker 9: There've been political correctness, or prerogatives or dei or new

1909
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:45,120
Speaker 9: priorities were emphasized, and we didn't feel like we were

1910
01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:49,080
Speaker 9: fully supported. Not anymore. And you mentioned the recruiting numbers.

1911
01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:51,880
Speaker 9: That's why last year was the most historic recruiting numbers

1912
01:34:51,880 --> 01:34:52,799
Speaker 9: we've seen in decades.

1913
01:34:53,080 --> 01:34:54,640
Speaker 7: This year is even beyond that.

1914
01:34:54,760 --> 01:34:58,280
Speaker 9: So far, guys, the recruiting numbers are surpassing so far

1915
01:34:58,320 --> 01:35:00,960
Speaker 9: and FY twenty six with they were last year.

1916
01:35:01,160 --> 01:35:02,240
Speaker 7: Because the spirit.

1917
01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:04,799
Speaker 9: Continues, the word is getting out. This is a military

1918
01:35:04,840 --> 01:35:05,479
Speaker 9: you want.

1919
01:35:05,240 --> 01:35:05,640
Speaker 7: To be in.

1920
01:35:05,800 --> 01:35:08,280
Speaker 9: President Trump has your back, the Secretary has your back.

1921
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:11,680
Speaker 9: We're training better than ever before in what we do,

1922
01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:14,320
Speaker 9: and we've got historic financing to make sure.

1923
01:35:14,200 --> 01:35:15,240
Speaker 7: We've got the weapons to do it.

1924
01:35:15,280 --> 01:35:18,479
Speaker 9: But also we're focusing on barracks and quality of life

1925
01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:20,639
Speaker 9: for the men and women who serve, raising pay.

1926
01:35:20,920 --> 01:35:22,840
Speaker 7: That's the way it should be. Put in the troops first,

1927
01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:23,799
Speaker 7: and that's been our focus.

1928
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:28,000
Speaker 24: Speaking of the troops under you yesterday, you announced you're

1929
01:35:28,040 --> 01:35:31,160
Speaker 24: going to seek a reduction in Mark Kelly, Senator Mark

1930
01:35:31,240 --> 01:35:35,519
Speaker 24: Kelly's rank as a result of his statements about possibly

1931
01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:38,880
Speaker 24: defiant orders. One of our viewers, Elizabeth, has asked us.

1932
01:35:39,960 --> 01:35:42,479
Speaker 24: She's wondering, She says, why not bring charges against him?

1933
01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:44,120
Speaker 24: She wonders how you reach that decision.

1934
01:35:45,960 --> 01:35:48,640
Speaker 9: Well, we went through the regular process, and we have

1935
01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:52,280
Speaker 9: evaluated those statements, not just that one video, which was

1936
01:35:52,640 --> 01:35:55,559
Speaker 9: incredibly reckless. He knew exactly what he was doing. By

1937
01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:57,719
Speaker 9: the way, he was the senior member of that video.

1938
01:35:57,760 --> 01:35:59,960
Speaker 9: He's the only one we have jurisdiction over because he's

1939
01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:03,639
Speaker 9: retire he's receiving a pension money from the government, which

1940
01:36:03,640 --> 01:36:07,120
Speaker 9: means he's still subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

1941
01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:10,160
Speaker 9: And watching the I don't know hiss he fit that

1942
01:36:10,200 --> 01:36:13,160
Speaker 9: he's been throwing ever since shows us.

1943
01:36:12,920 --> 01:36:14,280
Speaker 10: Just how over the target we are.

1944
01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:15,599
Speaker 7: He knew exactly what he was saying.

1945
01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:19,480
Speaker 9: He understands the rules, he understands he's still subject to UCMJA,

1946
01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:22,080
Speaker 9: He understood the doubt and uncertainty he was putting into

1947
01:36:22,080 --> 01:36:26,240
Speaker 9: the process by vaguely alluding to illegal orders but never

1948
01:36:26,800 --> 01:36:30,000
Speaker 9: pointing to what that would mean. Underneath the Trump so

1949
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:34,559
Speaker 9: he knew and he understands, and the reaction underscores how

1950
01:36:34,600 --> 01:36:38,800
Speaker 9: serious this action is. Reducing a rank or pay is

1951
01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:43,920
Speaker 9: a serious administrative action that sends real simals that we

1952
01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:47,200
Speaker 9: take these things incredibly seriously. So he's got the time

1953
01:36:47,479 --> 01:36:49,519
Speaker 9: by statute or by directive to reply.

1954
01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:50,920
Speaker 7: We'll review after that.

1955
01:36:51,600 --> 01:36:55,599
Speaker 9: But this is I don't think anybody should should minimize

1956
01:36:55,600 --> 01:36:59,920
Speaker 9: how significant this is. We don't do it without understanding that.

1957
01:37:00,360 --> 01:37:02,080
Speaker 9: And we're following up by the book and we'll see

1958
01:37:02,120 --> 01:37:02,559
Speaker 9: what happens.

1959
01:37:02,680 --> 01:37:05,000
Speaker 13: Yeah, my brother who's in the military said that this

1960
01:37:05,080 --> 01:37:08,960
Speaker 13: is a pretty massive demoralization for him. I mean, this

1961
01:37:09,040 --> 01:37:12,840
Speaker 13: is a getting demoted in your retirement is pretty big.

1962
01:37:13,479 --> 01:37:14,120
Speaker 1: Secretary.

1963
01:37:14,680 --> 01:37:16,840
Speaker 13: Last question here, Oh, I want to say first, I

1964
01:37:16,840 --> 01:37:19,680
Speaker 13: want you to know that you were our most popular

1965
01:37:19,720 --> 01:37:23,320
Speaker 13: We did a straphole at America Fest and thirty one

1966
01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:25,720
Speaker 13: thousand people we gave it to all of them. They

1967
01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:29,320
Speaker 13: said that you are the most their favorite cabinet secretary

1968
01:37:29,360 --> 01:37:31,880
Speaker 13: in the Trump administration. So I just I want you

1969
01:37:31,920 --> 01:37:34,840
Speaker 13: to know that. There's other questions about how many pull

1970
01:37:34,920 --> 01:37:36,800
Speaker 13: ups you can do, how many push ups, but we're

1971
01:37:36,800 --> 01:37:37,600
Speaker 13: gonna skip.

1972
01:37:37,360 --> 01:37:38,599
Speaker 1: That for the interest of time.

1973
01:37:38,880 --> 01:37:41,360
Speaker 13: But I'm sure that that had some influence in your

1974
01:37:41,400 --> 01:37:43,960
Speaker 13: favorable marks there. I want to end it with this,

1975
01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:46,800
Speaker 13: and we should. This is the Charlie Kirk Show. You

1976
01:37:46,840 --> 01:37:50,519
Speaker 13: were friends with Charlie. Charlie fought like tooth and nail

1977
01:37:50,840 --> 01:37:53,080
Speaker 13: to get you over the finish line in your confirmation.

1978
01:37:54,479 --> 01:37:57,080
Speaker 13: I think he'd be very proud of you, mister secretary.

1979
01:37:57,560 --> 01:38:00,000
Speaker 13: You've done a tremendous job and we're proud of you.

1980
01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:03,439
Speaker 13: What do you remember about him? And what do you

1981
01:38:03,439 --> 01:38:05,280
Speaker 13: want the world to know about your friend that maybe

1982
01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:06,759
Speaker 13: they don't from your pov.

1983
01:38:08,880 --> 01:38:09,759
Speaker 2: You give me chills.

1984
01:38:10,720 --> 01:38:13,200
Speaker 9: I wouldn't be in this position right here without Charlie Kirk,

1985
01:38:13,360 --> 01:38:15,719
Speaker 9: with a probably without the Charlie Kirk Show, without his platform,

1986
01:38:15,760 --> 01:38:16,679
Speaker 9: without his courage.

1987
01:38:16,960 --> 01:38:18,599
Speaker 7: Throughout the confirmation.

1988
01:38:18,280 --> 01:38:21,679
Speaker 9: Battle, he was always right there and hold the line,

1989
01:38:22,200 --> 01:38:25,439
Speaker 9: don't give in. We've got your back, and the win

1990
01:38:25,560 --> 01:38:28,320
Speaker 9: that put in my sales. I mean, he and Donald

1991
01:38:28,360 --> 01:38:31,439
Speaker 9: Trump Junior and others just unrelenting in backing me up.

1992
01:38:31,479 --> 01:38:34,519
Speaker 7: So I wouldn't be here without him. Listen.

1993
01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:37,960
Speaker 9: He was the thermometer in the thermostat of our movement,

1994
01:38:37,960 --> 01:38:40,240
Speaker 9: and you understand what that means. He understood what was

1995
01:38:40,240 --> 01:38:42,439
Speaker 9: going on around around the country, and he understood how

1996
01:38:42,439 --> 01:38:46,000
Speaker 9: to ensure we were calibrated correctly to make sure make

1997
01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:48,080
Speaker 9: America great again or America First was moving in the

1998
01:38:48,160 --> 01:38:48,679
Speaker 9: right direction.

1999
01:38:49,280 --> 01:38:51,639
Speaker 7: But he did it because he had listened.

2000
01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:54,479
Speaker 9: He was a true believer on every front and politically

2001
01:38:54,479 --> 01:38:56,719
Speaker 9: of what he believed in in his own Christian faith

2002
01:38:56,960 --> 01:38:58,240
Speaker 9: and how he lived that out.

2003
01:38:58,560 --> 01:39:00,479
Speaker 7: And he wasn't about praise for Charles Kirk.

2004
01:39:00,520 --> 01:39:04,040
Speaker 9: He was about the country and christ and the cause

2005
01:39:04,280 --> 01:39:05,920
Speaker 9: and doing everything he could do advance it.

2006
01:39:05,920 --> 01:39:08,439
Speaker 7: He never cared whether it was his name in the headline.

2007
01:39:08,479 --> 01:39:09,800
Speaker 1: So he backed people up.

2008
01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:12,080
Speaker 7: He backed President Trump up, he backed me up, he

2009
01:39:12,160 --> 01:39:12,840
Speaker 7: backed the other.

2010
01:39:12,720 --> 01:39:15,680
Speaker 9: Members of the cabinet up, and created the opportunity for

2011
01:39:15,760 --> 01:39:17,680
Speaker 9: us to do exactly what we should do, which is

2012
01:39:17,720 --> 01:39:20,200
Speaker 9: what we said we would do, which President Trump appointed

2013
01:39:20,280 --> 01:39:22,519
Speaker 9: us to do, which is, you know, peace through strength,

2014
01:39:22,560 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 9: America First, bring the warrior ethos back to the military.

2015
01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:27,679
Speaker 9: All the things Charlie cared about, you guys care about

2016
01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:30,840
Speaker 9: were doing so. I wouldn't be here without him. We

2017
01:39:30,920 --> 01:39:32,280
Speaker 9: think of him every single day.

2018
01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:35,120
Speaker 7: I love him. His wife, Erica, is incredible.

2019
01:39:35,439 --> 01:39:38,200
Speaker 9: Anything we will do here at the War Department, and
