1 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirk Show starts now. 2 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 2: The President of the United States has been impeached for 3 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 2: now only the third time in history. 4 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 3: We are here today because Donald J. Trump, the forty 5 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 3: fifth President of the United States, abused the power of 6 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 3: his office, the American presidency for is a political and 7 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 3: personal benefit. 8 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 2: To effectuate this scheme, President Trump withheld two official acts 9 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 2: of vital importance to a nation at war with our adversary, 10 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: Vladimir Putin's Russia. 11 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: The President withheld a White. 12 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 2: House meeting that Ukraine desperately sought to bolster it standing 13 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 2: on the world stage. And more perniciously, President Trump suspended 14 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: hundreds of millions of dollars of military aid approved by 15 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: this Congress to course Ukraine into doing his electoral dirty work. 16 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 4: To withhold that systems for no good reason other than 17 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 4: help with the political impaign made no sense. It was 18 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 4: counterproductive to all of what we had been trying to do. 19 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 5: My worst fear of how our Ukraine policy could play 20 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 5: out was playing out, how this was likely to have 21 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 5: significant implications for US national security. 22 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 6: He was being involved in a domestic political errant, and 23 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 6: we were being involved in. 24 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 7: National security foreign policy, and those two things had just diverged. 25 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 8: I then heard President Trump ask, so he's going to 26 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 8: do the investigation. Maassar Songlon replied that he's going to 27 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 8: do it, adding to President Zelenski will do anything he 28 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 8: ask him to do. Was there a quick pro quote, 29 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 8: as I testified previously with regard to the requested White 30 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 8: House call and the White House meeting, The answer is yes. 31 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: Substract is a quick pro quote. 32 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: It is funding will not flow. 33 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 7: Unless the investigation into the Democratic Server happened. As well, 34 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 7: we do that all the time with foreign policy. 35 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 9: And when the president got caught, he committed his second 36 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 9: impeachable act, obstruction of Congress of the variability to make 37 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 9: sure that no one is above the law, not even 38 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 9: the president of the United States. The evidence is every 39 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 9: bit is strong that President Trump has obstructed Congress fully 40 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 9: without precedent and without basis in law. The President and 41 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 9: his men plot on the danger persists. 42 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 7: The risk is real. 43 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 9: Our democracy is at peril. 44 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 10: Well, I would. 45 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 11: Think that if they were honest about it, that sort 46 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 11: of major investigation into Divide. 47 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 12: It's a very simple answer. 48 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 11: He should investigate Divide and by the way, likewise, China 49 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 11: should start an investigation into divide. 50 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 13: Rudy Giuliani telling CNN's Dana Bash that he's wrapped up 51 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 13: his trip in Ukraine. 52 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 14: He's been in Europe this past week. 53 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 10: As part of a bid to keep digging for. 54 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 14: Dirt on President Trump's political rival. 55 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: And I have news for everybody. Get over it. 56 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 7: There's going to be political influence in foreign policy. 57 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: What is at risk here is the very. 58 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: Idea of America. That idea holds that we are a 59 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: nation of laws, not of men. We are a nation 60 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 2: that believes in the rule of law. When we say 61 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: we uphold the Constitution, we are not talking about a 62 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 2: piece of parchment. We're talking about a beautiful architecture in 63 00:03:55,640 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: which ambition is set against ambition, in which no branch 64 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: of government can dominate another. 65 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 3: The Trump administration is releasing what the President describes as 66 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: the transcript of that phone call that launched the Democrats' 67 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 3: impeachment investigation. 68 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 9: The big thing that everybody was talking about was that 69 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 9: there was a quid pro quo. 70 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: There is no explicit quid pro quote. 71 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 14: That language, or even that suggestion exists nowhere in this document. 72 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: The President did not say, investigate Joe Biden. If you 73 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: want your. 74 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 7: Money, there are not multiple references as widely reported to 75 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 7: the former vice president. 76 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 8: Is this a big bowl of nothing? 77 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: I don't see a tie to the money. 78 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 7: People we talked to you said the president didn't make 79 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 7: any remarks about a and he does it. It was 80 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 7: actually President Vilensky of Ukraine who first brought up outreach 81 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 7: to Rudy Giuliani. 82 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 15: It's another media disaster. 83 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 11: I think this is one of the worst weeks in 84 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 11: the history of the fake news media. 85 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 10: You have been wrong on so many. 86 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: Things, Charlie. 87 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 14: Every day is a battle for your mind, raging information 88 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 14: coming from every angle, but the will to deceive fear not. 89 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 14: You found the place for truth, the voice of a 90 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 14: generation that still has the will to believe in the 91 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 14: greatest country in the history of the world. 92 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 16: This is the Charlie Kirk Show.

You're like, hey, 121 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 16: start up, start at point one. So first big breaking 122 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 16: news story this morning, Blake nef the State of Georgia 123 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 16: is basically refusing or declining to pursue its case, the 124 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 16: Fanny Willis case against Donald J. Trump, Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, 125 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 16: and many others. Uh, this is a fit end, but 126 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 16: kind of a whimper in what was a main, huge 127 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 16: story of. 128 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four. Yeah. 129 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 7: I wanted us to start with this because I think 130 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 7: it actually perfectly encapsulates the life arc of a lot 131 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 7: of things we've lived through in the Trump era. There's 132 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 7: how many times have the walls been closing in? About, 133 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 7: you know, fifty thousand different times? There was there was 134 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 7: a mean video if the walls. 135 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: Are closing in? 136 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 7: How often they set it in I think twenty sixteen 137 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 7: or early twenty seventeen, And it's just been the same 138 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,239 Speaker 7: way ever since. So when Trump was out of office, 139 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 7: they waited a few years, they didn't do anything initially, 140 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 7: and then suddenly twenty twenty three they thought, let's roll 141 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 7: out all of these indictments of Trump Manhattan in Georgia, 142 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 7: and then the two federal cases. 143 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 10: Yeah. 144 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 7: Then of course, yeah, the business case Carrol, all of 145 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 7: these things to take him down, and a lot of them, 146 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 7: they'll superficially look formidable. You know, He's got four different 147 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 7: criminal indictments and all these civil cases, and what I 148 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 7: was always stood out to me is how every single 149 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 7: one of them has some insane flaw either unprecedented use 150 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 7: of the law of law and law fav a total 151 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 7: novel reinterpretation. 152 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,239 Speaker 1: I remember this case, the Fulton County case. 153 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 7: It included in the indictment that, as part of his 154 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 7: conspiracy to do various bad things, that Trump encouraged people 155 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 7: to turn on oan to watch. I believe the Georgia 156 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 7: Legislature hold a hearing that was part of the conspiracy. 157 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 7: I believe another part of his conspiracy was encouraging was 158 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 7: that he called lawmakers. I believe he called lawmakers and 159 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 7: urged them to vote a certain way on legislation, which 160 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 7: I will observe is part of the First Amendment. You're 161 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 7: right to petition lawmakers for redressive grievances. I believe that 162 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 7: extends to the president. They had things like this, and then, 163 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 7: in case you've forgotten, Fanny Willis also hired her boyfriend 164 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 7: Nathan Wade. 165 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: Onto the case. 166 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 7: They paid him, I believe over six hundred thousand dollars, 167 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 7: they were taking luxury vacations. They tried to lie about 168 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 7: the fact that they were in a relationship. He I 169 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 7: believe might have left his wife or girlfriend as part 170 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 7: of this. There was a whole sordid background to that. 171 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 7: All of this I bring up to you again, and 172 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 7: now we've come here. Nothing came that. It ended in 173 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 7: total humiliation. They have to drop the case. Millions of 174 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 7: dollars were wasted, so big Fanny Willis could look like 175 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 7: a big superstar, and so many things are like that. 176 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 7: All of the Trump criminal cases were ultimately like guess, 177 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 7: even the one where he got convicted, huge problems with it. 178 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: I think it would have gone down in court eventually. 179 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 7: You're talking about the case. No, not the Carroll case, 180 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 7: the Manhattan Oh yeah, of course. And then, of course, 181 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 7: so just one thing after another, they would bring up 182 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 7: these cases that are half baked, they're entirely politically motivated, 183 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 7: and they go down to an embarrassing defeat. 184 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 16: I mean you mean the Manhattan case where he successfully 185 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 16: paid back his bank loans. 186 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no. 187 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 7: If this is the one where they said that he 188 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 7: was engaging in what was. 189 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: It was the election case? You know it was with 190 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: your talking about with Stormy Daniel. Yes, yeah, the hush case. 191 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 7: But they said it was a illegal campaign contribution, yes, 192 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 7: to allegedly play hush money. And then they also that 193 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 7: it was a felony because he was covering up a 194 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 7: federal crime that the federal government had never charged him with, 195 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 7: had in fact investigated and declined to charge him for. 196 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 7: And then they tell the jury you can just pick 197 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 7: whatever crime you feel like might have been covered up. 198 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 7: You don't even need to unanimously agree on a crime. 199 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 7: All of these things are like that. And so we 200 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 7: wanted to open that because today is Thanksgiving and you 201 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 7: can not today. Yeah, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, Thank you, Andrew 202 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 7: and fact check yeah and so so. 203 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 16: But all this, you know, this is what gets me 204 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 16: is there's another round of this that seems to be 205 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 16: about to pop off. And now Bloomberg has somehow gotten 206 00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 16: its hands on a leak between a witcock Off Steve Witkoff, 207 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 16: special envoy apprend appointed by President Trump to handle Ukraine 208 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 16: Russia issues. He's been traveling all over the world working 209 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 16: on peace negotiations, and Yuri Ushakov, Vladimir Putin's top foreign 210 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 16: policy advisor. So there was a this is a new 211 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 16: story breaking today, Blake, where it is it seems to 212 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 16: be a story where I instantly want to ask qui bono, 213 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 16: who benefits? Right, because if you let's go through the 214 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 16: paces here. So there was a twenty eight point piece 215 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 16: plan that was leaked, right first leak and by the way, 216 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 16: Jack Pisovic actually predicted that there was going to be 217 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 16: a leaked phone call yesterday, which is pretty remarkable because 218 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 16: it came out today or it came. 219 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 1: Out last night. 220 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 16: And there was a twenty eight point peace plan, which 221 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 16: was widely derided by the foreign policy establishment is to 222 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 16: pro Kremlin. So then we get the EU coming in 223 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 16: and we get a follow up peace plan which is 224 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 16: much more let's say, pro Ukrainian. 225 00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:58,559 Speaker 11: There was. 226 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 1: Basically you had made. 227 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 16: The point earlier this week, Blake, that the twenty eight 228 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 16: point piece plan was somewhat remarkable in the sense that 229 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 16: it actually included a provision where the US would I 230 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 16: would identify portions of formerly Ukrainian land as now Russian 231 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 16: land and territory. That's a pretty big deal. So this one, 232 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 16: the new piece plan, does not necessarily have that. It 233 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 16: has a doesn't doesn't have a cap on the size 234 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 16: of the Ukrainian military. There's other things that would would 235 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 16: you obviously interpret as more pro Ukrainian, pro Europe. Right, 236 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 16: there's basically a NATO Article five type security guarantee involved 237 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 16: in the new plan, so it's much much more pro Ukrainian. 238 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 16: I think the twenty eight point plan is much more 239 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 16: pragmatic and probably realistic, where this is going to finally 240 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 16: end out in the end. But now we have a leak, 241 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 16: and you have to ask why would somebody leak this 242 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 16: phone call between Wikoff and Ushakov. 243 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 1: So the call. 244 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 16: Is essentially, I think, a nothing burger, but it's being 245 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 16: made much of in the press because it appears to them, 246 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 16: and the way they're painting is that Witkoff is playing 247 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 16: ball with the Russians, coaching the Russians on how to 248 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,719 Speaker 16: sell this peace plan plan to Trump. Right, Trump, you're 249 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 16: the peace president, you know, kind of glazing President Trump, 250 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 16: giving him, giving his ego a boost. And I think 251 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 16: that this is completely par for the course. This is 252 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 16: standard operating procedure, standard negotiation tactics, and I believe the 253 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 16: President agrees, let's go ahead and play cut two thirty two. 254 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: It's audio that Bloomberg has of. 255 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 6: Witcom coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you. 256 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 11: But that's a standard thing, you know, because he's got 257 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 11: to sell this to Ukraine. He's going to sell Ukraine 258 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 11: to Russia. That's what he's That's what that don't make 259 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 11: your dis You got to say, look, they want this. 260 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 15: You've got to convince him. But this, you know, that's 261 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 15: a very standard form of negotiation. 262 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: Blake, do you think that's a standard form of negotiating. 263 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,439 Speaker 7: I don't know whether it's standard in diplomacy. It's standard 264 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 7: with what Trump does. Trump is a real estate guy. 265 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 7: Trump is a guy who is he likes Witcough because 266 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 7: wit Cough negotiates the way. I think Trump likes to 267 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 7: make deals, and I think of how you might make 268 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 7: deals in the business world. It probably would be normal 269 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 7: to tell someone, Hey, before you talk to this guy, 270 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 7: here's how you're going to make sure this conversation goes well. 271 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 7: That is a normal conversation that you will have if 272 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 7: you are in, you know, a business world of negotiation. 273 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 7: And I think. 274 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: It's if Trump says he likes it, that probably makes sense. 275 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: That's probably true. We'll be right back. 276 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 17: Use flash. 277 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 14: Democrats America has a republic, not a democracy. 278 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: Fact check true. 279 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 16: All right, Blake, we are are going to get into 280 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 16: very shortly. Hear what we're thankful for, And I would 281 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 16: say that one thing that I'm very thankful for is 282 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 16: the folks over at Why REFI.

He will 336 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 12: say that mister Trump is a real peace man, and 337 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 12: the so and so that you will. 338 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 18: Say, maybe he says President Trump. You know, Steve and 339 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 18: you were discussed the very similar twenty point plan to piece, 340 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 18: and that could be something that we might move the 341 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 18: needle a little. 342 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: Bit that that infliction upon us. 343 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 16: Yeah, that was actually the wrong version. There's another one 344 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 16: that's going around just much better. But the point is 345 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 16: there is coaching going on. 346 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,719 Speaker 7: You wants a better one because then people will think 347 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 7: it's the real that's true. 348 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 16: But I mean, this was a phone call. It was 349 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 16: trying to be it was it was supposed to be 350 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 16: a reenactment. That was a that was a bad version 351 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 16: of that. But the point is they're trying to coach 352 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 16: President Trump and everybody's saying, oh, look at the Kremlins 353 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 16: too involve. But this all strikes me as a throwback 354 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 16: to the twenty nineteen vinmin League, right, And there is 355 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,719 Speaker 16: this amazing, amazing here that I'm going to pull up 356 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 16: in just a second. Basically, you have Vinment testifying before Congress, 357 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 16: and you know, then Adam Shift jumps in to protect Vinman. 358 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 16: And it is this really telling moment that just as 359 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 16: I'm having I'm having flashbacks to twenty nineteen, so you 360 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 16: have to have them with me too. Let's go ahead 361 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 16: and play cut. I believe this would be two thirty three. 362 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 2: Did you discuss the July twenty fifth phone call with 363 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,959 Speaker 2: anyone outside the White House on July twenty fifth or 364 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 2: the twenty sixth. 365 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 5: Yes, I did. My core function is to coordinate US 366 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 5: government policy in tre agency policy. And I spoke to 367 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 5: two individuals with regards to providing a some some sort 368 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 5: of readout of the column. 369 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: Two individuals that were not in the White House. 370 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 5: Not in the White House. 371 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 7: If I could interject here, we don't want to. 372 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 6: Use these proceedings. 373 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 7: It's our time. We need to protect the whistleblower. 374 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: Oh need to protect the whistle blower. Whistle blower. So 375 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: this is how this happened. 376 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 7: That was just that's such a bizarre episode in hindsight, 377 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 7: that entire whistleblower saga, where there was someone who was 378 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 7: just making allegations against the president that were ridiculous, and 379 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 7: then people, hundreds thousands of people knew who this person was, 380 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 7: but you couldn't say their name on television because. 381 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: They were the whistle blower. 382 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 7: It was Eric Cramelo that shimmearella whatever I can't promouns. 383 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: So so yeah, he was the whistleblower. 384 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 16: He But but basically what that was was an instance 385 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 16: of somebody got to read out of the call, thought 386 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 16: it wasn't good, and then accused the president, which ends up, 387 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 16: you know, resulting in crazed impeachment proceedings. So this is 388 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 16: this is these are the stakes that we're playing with, 389 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 16: and never forget, you know, six ways to Sunday.

It's the lowest that 395 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 16: he's ever had. He's back against the wall. We could 396 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 16: play the cut cut why not two forty four. 397 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 19: To take on the intelligence community? They have six ways 398 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 19: from Sunday at getting back at you. So even for 399 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 19: a practical, supposedly hard nosed businessman, he's being really dumb. 400 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 7: To do this. What do you think the intelligence community 401 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 7: would do if they were mine? 402 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 19: I don't know, but I from what I am told, 403 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 19: they are very upset with how he has treated them 404 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 19: and talked about them. And we need the intelligence community. 405 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 19: We don't know what's going Look at the Russian hacking. 406 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 19: Without the intelligence community, we wouldn't have discovered it. 407 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 9: He has an agenda to try to dismantle parts of 408 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:48,719 Speaker 9: the intelligence community. 409 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 7: I mean this form of tante hostel. 410 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 19: Whether you're a super liberal Democrat or a very conservative Republican, 411 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 19: you should be against dismantling the intelligence community. 412 00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: Video. 413 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 7: No, video is a better argument for just a systematic purge. 414 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 7: You have seventeen of the intelligent fire huge numbers of 415 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 7: people at random. If you need to think the CIA 416 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 7: because it's so sinister, yeah, oh well, we only know 417 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 7: these things if the intelligence community tells us. And if 418 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 7: you better do what the intelligence community wants. You don't 419 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 7: make them upset or they'll get back at you. That's despicable. 420 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 7: We live in a republic. Voters get to decide what 421 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 7: actually happens in their. 422 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 16: Coms well, and in this instance it's pro I would 423 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 16: doubt that it's the CIA. That maybe there's involvement of 424 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 16: the CIA, But you look at this, This was a 425 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,959 Speaker 16: a It could have been Ukrainian intel, could have been 426 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 16: six could have been the Five Eyes. You got to 427 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 16: ask yourself who benefits from leaking this call to sabotage 428 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 16: a peace plan because they think it's they think that 429 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 16: the Trump administration is being too pro Kremlin. But I 430 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 16: will say it again, I think the original twenty eight 431 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 16: point plan is the more pragmatic, honest plan that has 432 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 16: the greatest chance of success. That Europe didn't want. Europe 433 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 16: thought it was bending the knee to the Kremlin.

Not only 591 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 16: was this a tremendous loss to Erica, but this is 592 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 16: a tremendous loss to the entire country, and Jade Vance 593 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 16: rose to the occasion in more ways than one. 594 00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: But just think about this. 595 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 16: This is what's so gross about this moment is that 596 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 16: it's the sneering and the derision and the jeering at 597 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 16: the suffering of a widow just because her slain husband 598 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 16: happened to be conservative, and they think they have the 599 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 16: they have the right to completely smear this moment and 600 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 16: and Erica more directly, I find it tremendously disgusting this 601 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 16: that we're talking like seventy days away from her going 602 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 16: through the unthinkable, and this is their reaction, that's their. 603 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 7: There would be the reaction. It was their reaction if 604 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 7: you looked online the week after. They're fundamentally gross people, 605 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 7: fundamentally disgusting. They are as let's be Frank Joy Reid 606 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 7: is as hideous on the inside as on the outside. 607 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 16: Well said, well, I think we dealt with that sufficiently. 608 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 16: I want let's we've been promising it, Blake. 609 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: Okay. 610 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 16: So there's a lot of talk about the fracturing on 611 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 16: the right there there. I would say that that the 612 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 16: enthusiasm has waned in moments, and I think it's important 613 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 16: that we focus and we say what are we thankful for? 614 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 16: Because actually there's a lot to be thankful for. You 615 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 16: we do not have President Kamala Harris. 616 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 7: Yeah, and it's especially important. We talked about this good 617 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 7: amount yesterday. We talked about it on Thought Crime as well. 618 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 7: That Charlie and Charlie and the early Americans both believed 619 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 7: it was especially important to express thanks in adversity, in difficulty. 620 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 7: And there's no adversity like what we've had in these 621 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 7: past three months. And there's also a lot of adversity 622 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 7: on the country. And as you say, the movement fracturing apart. 623 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 7: There's people who are upset about one thing or another. 624 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 7: There's almost a bad vibe over the country where people 625 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 7: have decided to fixate on things they are unhappy about 626 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 7: rather than things they are happy about, and this can 627 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 7: easily just become a self perpetuating cycle. And so we 628 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 7: wanted to tag we wanted to reframe things. We wanted 629 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 7: to focus on, this is the end of the year. 630 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 7: What are the things you should be grateful for? And 631 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 7: there are a lot of them, both personally and there 632 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 7: are a lot of them nationally on the political level. 633 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 7: When Charlie was talking at the end of in his 634 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 7: Thanksgiving message last year, Charlie says, God has shown mercy 635 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 7: upon our country, and we've seen that mercy actually manifest. 636 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 7: It wasn't just a hopeful thing. We've seen one of 637 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 7: the things we should never forget to talk about. We 638 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,959 Speaker 7: had a year ago we had a complete, wide, open 639 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 7: border with the entire throad world. We had a de 640 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 7: facto trader, Alejandro Maiorcis running the show, letting in gangsters 641 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:34,280 Speaker 7: from China, you know, possible terrorists from Central Africa, everyone 642 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 7: coming in and overnight close the door. President Trump closed 643 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 7: the door. We don't have an open border anymore. We 644 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 7: have a real border. And it happened so instantaneously and 645 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 7: so totally that people allow themselves to forget that it happened, 646 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 7: and instead this is the sort of it's the grievance mindset. 647 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,919 Speaker 7: It's the mindset of I'm mad there are not enough 648 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 7: deportations happening quickly enough. We agree, we would like more deportations, 649 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 7: we would like faster deportations, and. 650 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: Yet we're attempting to do them. 651 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 7: We actually have the arrest happening, We have deportations being made, 652 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 7: we have multi billion dollar ice hiring expansion to accelerate 653 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 7: it in the following year. We should be thankful for 654 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 7: those things. We should be thankful for a ceasefire in 655 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 7: the Israel Gaza war and the other cease fighters that 656 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 7: have happened, for the progress towards the ceasefire in the 657 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 7: Rush of Ukraine War, the deadliest war in Europe in 658 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 7: nearly a century. 659 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: Well, I totally agree. 660 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 16: And you know, this is the conundrum that the administration 661 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,720 Speaker 16: faces right where they get peace in the Middle East, 662 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 16: something everybody wanted. But then instantly, you know, you see 663 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 16: the chatter and by the way, I've contributed to this, 664 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 16: and I make you know, I make no apologies for it. 665 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 16: But you know, then then it's sort of like domestic 666 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 16: domestic front is not getting enough attention, which is true.

So 798 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 16: since ICE had come onto the scene, it grown, they 799 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 16: had not added personnel.

That issue, 815 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 7: that issue doesn't really matter much. It mattered a lot. 816 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 7: They were mutilating children. They still want to do it. 817 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,919 Speaker 7: They're fanatical about it. The scale of the evil, how 818 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 7: sinister it was, the scale of the line they had 819 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 7: to tell that you could just a boy could just 820 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 7: become a girl, or the other way around, was so unthinkable, 821 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 7: and the fact that we actually don't talk about it 822 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 7: nearly as much anymore, other than the occasional oh, a 823 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 7: guy goes into a girl's locker room or something.

Thanksgiving 910 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 20: just got a bit more happy for President Trump after 911 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 20: a judge dismissed the Georgia election interference case against him. 912 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 20: The ruling comes after the prosecutor, who recently took over 913 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,399 Speaker 20: the case from Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis, said 914 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 20: that he would not pursue the charges. This was the 915 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:58,320 Speaker 20: last case seeking to punish the President for his efforts 916 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:02,320 Speaker 20: to overturn his twenty twenty election loss. District Attorney Willis 917 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,040 Speaker 20: was taken off the case over a quote appearance of 918 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 20: impropriety due to her romantic relationship with the special prosecutor. 919 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 20: She chose to lead the case against mister Trump and 920 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,359 Speaker 20: his eighteen co defendants, while it was unlikely that any 921 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 20: legal action would have been moving forward against the president, 922 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 20: especially while he was in office. Other people named in 923 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,759 Speaker 20: the case, including former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani 924 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,879 Speaker 20: and former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, are 925 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 20: now also free and clear. Now that the case has 926 00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 20: been abandoned. Airports across the country are starting to get 927 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 20: more and more crowded as travelers make their way to 928 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 20: their Thanksgiving locations. The day before Thanksgiving is traditionally one 929 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 20: of the busiest travel days of the year. Triple A 930 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,839 Speaker 20: estimates that nearly eighty two million Americans will travel this 931 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:52,799 Speaker 20: Thanksgiving holiday, while seventy three million will travel by car, 932 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:57,720 Speaker 20: about six million will fly. Meantime, President Trump is touting 933 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 20: how much more affordable this Thanksgiving is as compared to 934 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 20: years past. 935 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 15: This Thanksgiving, we're also making incredible strides to make America 936 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 15: affordable again. Walmart announced that the cost of their standard 937 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,719 Speaker 15: Thanksgiving meal is twenty five percent lower than just one 938 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 15: year ago. That's a big deal. According to the USCA, 939 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 15: the price of Thanksgiving turkey is down thirty three percent 940 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 15: from its Bidenira highs. Potatoes are down thirteen percent. Hamm 941 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,960 Speaker 15: is down fifteen percent compared to last Thanksgiving. So we 942 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,360 Speaker 15: are down to a level that we haven't seen in 943 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:34,120 Speaker 15: a long time. 944 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,520 Speaker 20: The President also projects the gas will soon be hovering 945 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 20: around the two dollars a gallon mark. Extending Obamacare subsidies 946 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,360 Speaker 20: continues to be a thorn in the President's side and 947 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 20: a challenge for Congressional Republicans who are seeking to do 948 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 20: away with that issue. Leading up to the January thirtieth 949 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:56,320 Speaker 20: government funding deadline. On Tuesday, President Trump said he prefers 950 00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:00,479 Speaker 20: not to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies. However, the White 951 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,880 Speaker 20: House is reportedly preparing a two year extension as millions 952 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 20: of Americans face the prospect of major premium increases if 953 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 20: and when those subsidies expire at the end of the year. 954 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 20: Democrats are demanding an ascension of the subsidies, but the 955 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:18,840 Speaker 20: White House also says, quote, the President is having ongoing 956 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 20: conversations with members of the administration, members of Congress, and 957 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 20: private sector experts about alternatives. The holiday season in full 958 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 20: swing at the White House's.

This is what came out a week ago, 997 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 7: and then there's been efforts to modify. 998 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: It, where Europeans have proposed counterplans. 999 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,920 Speaker 7: But I think the nicest thing is the twenty eight 1000 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 7: point plan because it seems this was worked on by 1001 00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 7: the administration directly. 1002 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:47,879 Speaker 1: And so. 1003 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:52,840 Speaker 7: Point one it says Ukraine's sovereignty will be confirmed, and okay, 1004 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,880 Speaker 7: that's a formal one. Sovereignty confirmed. That is a fancy 1005 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,879 Speaker 7: way of saying Ukraine will remain a country, it will 1006 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 7: remain independent, will not be annexed, it will not be 1007 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,320 Speaker 7: absorbed by Russia or anyone else. It'll remain a country. 1008 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 7: And it then says this is point two is actually 1009 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 7: one of the most important. It is there will be 1010 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:14,160 Speaker 7: a comprehensive non aggression agreement between Russia, Ukraine and Europe. 1011 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 7: And then this is key, all ambiguities of the last 1012 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:20,279 Speaker 7: thirty years will be considered settled. This is why I 1013 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 7: was a fan when I read this plan, that the 1014 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 7: intent of this is to be a final peace treaty 1015 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:30,080 Speaker 7: with no outstanding business. And when we've seen Europe try 1016 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 7: to mess with this, A big way they've tried to 1017 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:36,239 Speaker 7: mess with it is by introducing ambiguities back into it. 1018 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 7: So an important part of this plan, one of its components, 1019 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 7: is it would seed land to Russia. More or less. 1020 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 7: Let's put up that image we have, was it yes, 1021 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 7: and so is it up yet? 1022 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 1: Yes? There it is. 1023 00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:52,840 Speaker 7: And so what it would do is those areas in 1024 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 7: red are roughly match places that are currently held by 1025 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 7: Russia that America, the international community have considered part of Ukraine. 1026 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 7: And these are the places they've captured Crimea in the south, 1027 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 7: which is now covered by our Chirun. 1028 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 1: But Crimea it was. 1029 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 7: Taken about a decade ago, these others were taken during 1030 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 7: the invasion. This would formally cede them to Russia. It 1031 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:19,800 Speaker 7: would now be owned by Russia. We would acknowledge russianist 1032 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 7: That is the key part. 1033 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 6: Were previously and have always been a part of Ukraine. 1034 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:25,839 Speaker 1: And always well so yeah, so they were. 1035 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,320 Speaker 7: They were part of Ukraine at its independence. So Ukraine 1036 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:32,480 Speaker 7: became independent from the Soviet Union in nineteen ninety one, 1037 00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:35,840 Speaker 7: and so when they became independent, they took all those lands. 1038 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:38,680 Speaker 7: Russia has had claim on some of the well has 1039 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,320 Speaker 7: created generated claims on some of them. There's been a 1040 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 7: long source of conflict they invaded over the status of 1041 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 7: many of these territories, and that is roughly the area 1042 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:51,120 Speaker 7: that they have conquered by force of arms. And this 1043 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 7: deal would recognize those captured territories as Russian. That's part 1044 00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 7: of the removing ambiguities thing. 1045 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 6: So was Russia's initial intent to take over all of Ukraine. 1046 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 7: Or to take these people would debate it. Russia's stated 1047 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:11,280 Speaker 7: intention for invading Ukraine was to denazify it. They claimed 1048 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:16,719 Speaker 7: Ukraine was run by Nazis. That is highly debatable as 1049 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:20,479 Speaker 7: an assertion at minimum, but it does seem their initial plan. 1050 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 7: They did. They attacked directly towards Kiev, the nation's capital. 1051 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:28,360 Speaker 7: They did they literally had paratroopers land at the airport 1052 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 7: of the city. They seemed to believe that Ukraine was 1053 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:35,720 Speaker 7: a very weak country and would just collapse almost instantly 1054 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:38,200 Speaker 7: once attacked. And in fact, if you follow the news story, 1055 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 7: then a lot of Americans expected the same thing. The 1056 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 7: Biden administration seems to have offered, oh, Zelensky, you can 1057 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,279 Speaker 7: flee the country and just come to America. 1058 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: And Zelensky, i will say, to his credit, did not 1059 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 1: do that. 1060 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 7: I know Charlie and Mania has had a lot of 1061 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 7: criticism of Zelensky unjustified grounds, but he did not, and 1062 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,759 Speaker 7: they fought a lot harder than they expected. So I 1063 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,319 Speaker 7: think one reason Charlie would support this deal is he 1064 00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:06,840 Speaker 7: would probably believe Russia would be inclined to respect a 1065 00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 7: final peace settlement because this war has been a lot longer, 1066 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:14,360 Speaker 7: a lot bloodier, a lot more expensive, a lot rougher 1067 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 7: on everyone than was expected. 1068 00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 1: A lot of wars are like that. 1069 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 6: So is this a win for either party or is 1070 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 6: this a pretty mutual compromise. 1071 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:26,960 Speaker 7: I'll try to take the Charlie thing and say the 1072 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 7: biggest winners of all would be the Ukrainian people who 1073 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 7: are not conscripted and fed into a meat grinder, so 1074 00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 7: that Washington can feel good about themselves and how they're 1075 00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 7: fighting Russia and being tough on Russia. You know, we 1076 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 7: don't need to kill a bunch of Ukrainian eighteen year 1077 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 7: olds so Lindsey Graham can feel tough. Having said that 1078 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,040 Speaker 7: the peace deal would be seen I would say as 1079 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 7: a victory more towards Russia, because it is better for 1080 00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 7: Russia than the deal that was on the table before 1081 00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,320 Speaker 7: the war began that Russia was offering to us. 1082 00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 6: What were they offered. 1083 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 1: Russia's deal that. 1084 00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 7: They were proposing in early twenty two was essentially, if 1085 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 7: you agree that Crimea is part of Russa, because they'd 1086 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:12,600 Speaker 7: already occupied that, if you agree not to admit Ukraine 1087 00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:16,920 Speaker 7: into NATO and not position certain military forces close to Russia. 1088 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,840 Speaker 7: They were proposing a peace deal along those lines. So 1089 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 7: it would have had them have less land, and it 1090 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 7: would just would have involved fewer concessions than this agreement. 1091 00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:31,240 Speaker 6: Why does Russia not want Ukraine and NATO? 1092 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:33,080 Speaker 1: So the most. 1093 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:35,720 Speaker 7: Helpful way to think of it is Ukraine from the 1094 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 7: Russian perspective is like the has long been a part 1095 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:45,200 Speaker 7: of their country. That Russian culture began in Kiev, and 1096 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:48,920 Speaker 7: it was part of the Russian Empire for hundreds of years. 1097 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 1: And you're reminded me of Tucker's interview with Putin. 1098 00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 7: Exactly, Yeah, Tucker asked Putin about Ukraine and he goes 1099 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 7: this literal half hour answer about the history of Ukraine. 1100 00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 7: But the core of it is is from the Russian perspective. 1101 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 7: They see Ukraine as this core part of Russia. And 1102 00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 7: so it would be imagine if America had a really 1103 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:14,520 Speaker 7: devastating thing and New England broke away and became its 1104 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 7: own country. And obviously we have a lot of political 1105 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 7: differences from New England, so you could see how they'd 1106 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 7: possibly be happy to be independent from us, but we 1107 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 7: would all but I. 1108 00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:25,720 Speaker 1: Wanted to go with New England where America began. 1109 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 7: And then imagine China came along and was suddenly cultivating 1110 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:33,120 Speaker 7: New England as an ally and talking about adding them 1111 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,320 Speaker 7: to the Chinese Belton Road Block, and maybe we should 1112 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 7: put some military forces in New England. 1113 00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 1: We can maybe put a nuclear missile there. 1114 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 7: And I think even though we would see a lot 1115 00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 7: of political differences with New England, Oh it's full of 1116 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 7: all these insane libs and commies, we would still be 1117 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:47,800 Speaker 7: really upset by that. 1118 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 1: I think that's the best. 1119 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 7: Way to the Cuban missile crisis. I mean, which more 1120 00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:54,439 Speaker 7: extreme than that. We've never owned Cuba. 1121 00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 16: No, but Cuba being so close to us, we had 1122 00:59:57,320 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 16: this Cuban missile crisis in the nineteen sixties because Russia 1123 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 16: was positioning arms right on the in Cuba, which is 1124 01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 16: what like what's the pinty miles, and that was a huge, 1125 01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:15,000 Speaker 16: huge geopolitical issue of the time. This is when kids 1126 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 16: were in schools, were learning to get under their desks 1127 01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:23,000 Speaker 16: and having to do these nuclear fallout drills. So you know, 1128 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 16: the boomer generation remembers this, and so it's sort of 1129 01:00:25,720 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 16: akin to that where you know, you could imagine having 1130 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:31,560 Speaker 16: a hostile military force NATO, which is considered one of 1131 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,960 Speaker 16: the most robust, well funded military alliances in the world, 1132 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 16: it's probably the most robust. Having that at your doorstep 1133 01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 16: is not a very promising or delightful idea for the. 1134 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 6: Russian So when they say that they are basically they're 1135 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 6: covering all I think you said conflicts over the last 1136 01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:56,000 Speaker 6: thirty years, putting those to rest. That means then that 1137 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:01,360 Speaker 6: Russia there they would be at peace with the parts 1138 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 6: of Ukraine that they have gotten back, yes. 1139 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 7: And they would be saying we will not demand anything more, 1140 01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 7: and we in return would we would end the sanctions, 1141 01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 7: we would reintegate Russia into the global economy. The objective 1142 01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 7: of the peace deal would be a true peace deal, 1143 01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:18,960 Speaker 7: not just a cease fire, not just we stop shooting. 1144 01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:22,560 Speaker 7: That this is considered the resolution of the conflict. And 1145 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,560 Speaker 7: I know Charlie verly, very badly wanted that. He thought 1146 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:27,600 Speaker 7: it was dumb that we were in this new Cold 1147 01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 7: War with Russia going on forever, when we were when 1148 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 7: we have conflicts with China, for example. I think he 1149 01:01:33,800 --> 01:01:37,880 Speaker 7: viewed this as a distraction and a product of Washington 1150 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 7: being unable to move on. 1151 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:43,320 Speaker 16: Absolutely waste by the way of American taxpayer dollars and munitions. 1152 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:45,440 Speaker 16: So there's that too.

This is from Sherry. 1190 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:19,480 Speaker 16: It says, Hi, guys, why is no one reporting We're 1191 01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 16: talking about Ukrainian corruption currently, many scandals, stolen money, blowing 1192 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:29,040 Speaker 16: up pipelines, killing Christians, killing Christians, biolabs and human sex trafficking. 1193 01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:32,120 Speaker 16: Why no investigations into who all is getting kickbacks? 1194 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:33,720 Speaker 1: Well, you know what's funny. 1195 01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:35,400 Speaker 7: This is actually that popped up as part of the 1196 01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 7: peace deal because I believe the original proposed piece plan 1197 01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,800 Speaker 7: has an aspect to say, oh and as part of 1198 01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 7: the peace deal, we'll do an audit for financial stuff 1199 01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:47,400 Speaker 7: because that's important to Trump to make sure the money 1200 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,200 Speaker 7: was used well. And the revised piece plan that was 1201 01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:53,600 Speaker 7: promoted by the Europeans tweaks this too. There shall be 1202 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:57,240 Speaker 7: a full amnesty for all actions during the war, which 1203 01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 7: I think a lot of people who have seen how 1204 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 7: much corruption there is. There are people in Ukraine who, 1205 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:05,320 Speaker 7: while their country has been fighting, have become cent a 1206 01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 7: millionaires off of aid money. It's always been a very 1207 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 7: corrupt country. It's one of the worst things about it. 1208 01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:13,800 Speaker 16: Well, and I know that there's been a little kerfuffle 1209 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 16: in a fallout with MTG, but I will say MTG 1210 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:18,720 Speaker 16: was very good on this particular issue. She was demanding 1211 01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 16: full accountability and a full accounting of where all of 1212 01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:22,920 Speaker 16: America's dollars have gone, and. 1213 01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:23,800 Speaker 1: I support that idea. 1214 01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 7: Still, we're going to welcome back national radio in two seconds. 1215 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 16: All right, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. We 1216 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 16: are doing no dumb questions and we're talking about Ukraine. 1217 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 1: Daisy, you have a long one that you would like 1218 01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:48,720 Speaker 1: to ask. 1219 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:52,040 Speaker 6: I think it's going to be a longer explanation, but 1220 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:54,800 Speaker 6: we were talking about why the US is the only 1221 01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 6: country that's positioned to present this piece deal to Ukraine 1222 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,560 Speaker 6: and Russia. My question. I don't think this is a 1223 01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:03,840 Speaker 6: dumb question. Specifically, I think that a lot of people 1224 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:06,920 Speaker 6: my age would have this question because growing up you 1225 01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:11,560 Speaker 6: hear a lot about who our allies are. There's so 1226 01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:14,160 Speaker 6: many conflicts that we've gotten in that haven't made sense. 1227 01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:16,960 Speaker 6: But it's like, Okay, we do have a longstanding agreement 1228 01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:20,360 Speaker 6: or relationship with this country that it makes sense that 1229 01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:25,080 Speaker 6: we're in these conversations. I was not aware and I 1230 01:05:25,120 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 6: don't really know why we are allies with Ukraine until 1231 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:30,360 Speaker 6: this all started happening in twenty twenty one. 1232 01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 1: So the question is why are we allies with you? 1233 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:33,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1234 01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:33,960 Speaker 6: And when did that start? 1235 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,760 Speaker 7: To some extent, that is a good question. Real, So 1236 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:39,720 Speaker 7: we had this and we thought we had to have 1237 01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:41,880 Speaker 7: this on air. Are you familiar with what the Cold 1238 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:42,640 Speaker 7: War is? Daisy? 1239 01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 6: Okay? So like ask me this. And yet to some extent, 1240 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 6: I believe it is about communism, and I do not 1241 01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 6: think that it was actual boots on the ground conflict. 1242 01:05:55,840 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 6: And I also do believe that it was at some 1243 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:08,600 Speaker 6: point in maybe the nineties, maybe the eighties. That's all all. 1244 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:09,440 Speaker 1: Right, there we go. 1245 01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:11,960 Speaker 7: I love gen Z so much so. The Cold War 1246 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 7: was the Russia used to be the Soviet Union, the USSR, 1247 01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 7: much bigger country. Ukraine was part of it, Belarus was 1248 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,400 Speaker 7: part of it. All those stands you can see in 1249 01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 7: Central Asia, they were all part of it. Was a 1250 01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 7: much bigger country, and it was communist. It wanted to 1251 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:28,520 Speaker 7: spread communism. It was an ideological state seen as a 1252 01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:30,520 Speaker 7: huge threat in America and the West, as it should be. 1253 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 7: They were promoting atheism, they opposed free enterprise, they opposed election. 1254 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:37,840 Speaker 7: They're just very bad country. And we stood against them. 1255 01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:40,920 Speaker 7: We had our allies in NATO in Western Europe opposed 1256 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 7: to the USSR. Fortunately, communism doesn't work, so their economy 1257 01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:47,960 Speaker 7: went down into the toilet. They began to have ethnic 1258 01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 7: fractiousness because it was a multi ethnic empire and because 1259 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:53,920 Speaker 7: diversity is not always a strength everyone. And so in 1260 01:06:53,960 --> 01:06:57,479 Speaker 7: nineteen ninety one, the Soviet Union collapses. It breaks into 1261 01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 7: a bunch of peace. Russia's yeah, nice evty one. They 1262 01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:05,400 Speaker 7: fracture apart, and Ukraine is one of the breakaway parts. 1263 01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:08,280 Speaker 7: Other countries break off, Russia's the biggest piece left. 1264 01:07:09,120 --> 01:07:11,640 Speaker 1: And what I would say is there we go. 1265 01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:15,840 Speaker 7: The reason, frankly where allies with Ukraine is even after 1266 01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:21,280 Speaker 7: this happened, we essentially remained hostile with Russia. 1267 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:24,400 Speaker 1: Why that happened. We'd need a whole hour to get 1268 01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:25,680 Speaker 1: into the details of why. 1269 01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:29,000 Speaker 16: That here, Because we've talked about NATO. NATO was a 1270 01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:33,840 Speaker 16: reaction to the USSR and the encroachment of Soviet Russia 1271 01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 16: or communist communist USSR, and so one could ask a 1272 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:41,439 Speaker 16: larger question of why did. 1273 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:43,480 Speaker 1: Exist, why NATO still exist? 1274 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 7: And instead what we did is we after the war 1275 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:50,520 Speaker 7: almost from a fit of just like idealism or because 1276 01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:53,880 Speaker 7: it was sentimentalism, like oh, these new countries are democracies, 1277 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 7: it'd be cool if they could join our cool democracy club. 1278 01:07:56,360 --> 01:08:00,840 Speaker 7: We expand NATO, so we add Poland, Hungary, Estonia. We 1279 01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 7: had all these countries in Eastern Europe that used to 1280 01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:06,040 Speaker 7: be communist and allied with the Soviets. And if you're Russia, 1281 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 7: the only possible justification for this is, oh, you're expanding 1282 01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:12,160 Speaker 7: your anti Russia military alliance to be closer to Russia, 1283 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 7: and so that hurt relations a lot. And I think 1284 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 7: there's also just a lot of lingering anti Russia paranoia. 1285 01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:22,560 Speaker 7: If you're a sixty five year old veteran of the military, 1286 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 7: the first entire half of your career was, oh, we're 1287 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 7: still hostile towards Russia. You grew up with the Cold War, 1288 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:35,080 Speaker 7: and so we've because of this, we've cultivated Ukraine as 1289 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,120 Speaker 7: this anti Russian country, and Ukraine has differences with Russia 1290 01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:39,560 Speaker 7: on a whole bunch of things. There's reasons they're in 1291 01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:43,040 Speaker 7: conflict with each other, and that's we basically, why are 1292 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,280 Speaker 7: we allies with Ukraine're allies with Ukraine because we are 1293 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:47,600 Speaker 7: not friendly with Russia. 1294 01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:48,120 Speaker 1: Is the biggest reason. 1295 01:08:48,200 --> 01:08:49,840 Speaker 16: You have to also understand that one of the key 1296 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 16: motivators for Vladimir Putin, who came of age when the 1297 01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:58,360 Speaker 16: USSR fell, is that he sees that as a really 1298 01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 16: giant mistake that it was allowed to fall. So all 1299 01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:03,639 Speaker 16: of those countries right there that were allowed to basically 1300 01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:08,160 Speaker 16: become independent and secede from Russia or the USSR. And 1301 01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 16: so he is a lot of people suspect one of 1302 01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:13,760 Speaker 16: his key drivers is that he wants to reunite the 1303 01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:18,160 Speaker 16: lost pieces of the USSR. And he sees Ukraine as 1304 01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:19,760 Speaker 16: the apple of Russia's eye. 1305 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:22,599 Speaker 6: Okay, son, That leads into my next question, what makes 1306 01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:25,320 Speaker 6: Ukraine different than any of these other countries that I'm 1307 01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:28,200 Speaker 6: looking at on this map for Ukraine and then they're 1308 01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 6: going for the other one's next. 1309 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:32,040 Speaker 7: That's what host people who don't like Russia would say. 1310 01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:34,519 Speaker 7: What I think Charlie would argue and I would agree, 1311 01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 7: is Russia has made it clear they view Ukraine as different. 1312 01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:39,920 Speaker 1: Is it was part of Russia longer. 1313 01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:43,600 Speaker 7: A lot of the people there are ethnically Russian, A 1314 01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:47,560 Speaker 7: lot of people there speak Russian. It was that historical 1315 01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:50,640 Speaker 7: heartland of Russia. Russia's repeatedly said, we think Ukraine is 1316 01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 7: way more important. So for example, Crimea, Finland borders Russia. 1317 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:57,360 Speaker 7: They joined NATO over this invasion, and Russia said, we're 1318 01:09:57,400 --> 01:09:58,840 Speaker 7: okay with that. It's not the end of the world 1319 01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:01,360 Speaker 7: for us. But they have said we will not allow 1320 01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:03,880 Speaker 7: Ukraine to join NATO. And part of this twenty eight 1321 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,200 Speaker 7: point piece plan says Ukraine can't join NATO, can't have 1322 01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:09,880 Speaker 7: troops in Ukraine, And in fact it still says you 1323 01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:12,200 Speaker 7: can treat it as a violation of NATO's self defense 1324 01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:13,400 Speaker 7: if we invade Ukraine. 1325 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:16,400 Speaker 1: Again, but you just can't have them joined. Well, that's 1326 01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:19,080 Speaker 1: something Charlie makes it really key. Is crimea which we 1327 01:10:19,120 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 1: can explain. Is just a second, we will be right back. 1328 01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 20: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice newsbreak. I'm Terrence Bates. 1329 01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:41,719 Speaker 20: Thanksgiving just got a bit more happy for President Trump 1330 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 20: after a judge dismissed the Georgia election interference case against him. 1331 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:48,840 Speaker 20: The ruling comes after the prosecutor who recently took over 1332 01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:52,080 Speaker 20: the case from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, said 1333 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:55,599 Speaker 20: he would not pursue the charges. This was the last 1334 01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,120 Speaker 20: case seeking to punish the President for his efforts to 1335 01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:03,320 Speaker 20: overturn the twenty twenty election. District Attorney Willis was taken 1336 01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:06,720 Speaker 20: off the case over a quote appearance of impropriety due 1337 01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:10,000 Speaker 20: to her romantic relationship with the special prosecutor. She chose 1338 01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:12,679 Speaker 20: to lead the case against mister Trump and his eighteen 1339 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:16,479 Speaker 20: co defendants, while it was unlikely that any legal action 1340 01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:19,160 Speaker 20: would have moved forward against the President, especially while he 1341 01:11:19,240 --> 01:11:22,080 Speaker 20: was in office. Other people named in the case, including 1342 01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:25,200 Speaker 20: former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former White 1343 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:28,559 Speaker 20: House Chief of Staff Mark Medows, are now also free 1344 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:32,960 Speaker 20: and clear. Not that the case has been abandoned, Extending 1345 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 20: Obamacare subsidies continues to be a thorn in the President's 1346 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:40,000 Speaker 20: side and a challenge for congressional Republicans who were seeking 1347 01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:41,880 Speaker 20: to do away with the issue leading up to the 1348 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:46,920 Speaker 20: January thirtieth government funding deadline. On Tuesday, President Trump said 1349 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:51,280 Speaker 20: he prefers not to extend Affordable Care accesbsidies. However, the 1350 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 20: White House is reportedly preparing a two year extension as 1351 01:11:55,120 --> 01:11:59,080 Speaker 20: millions of Americans faced the prospect of major premium increases 1352 01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:01,640 Speaker 20: if and when the subsist these expire at the end 1353 01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:06,080 Speaker 20: of this year. Democrats are demanding an extension of the subsidies. 1354 01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:08,920 Speaker 20: What the White House says, quote, the President is having 1355 01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:13,040 Speaker 20: ongoing conversations with members of his administration, members of Congress, 1356 01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:19,080 Speaker 20: and private sector experts about alternatives. Airports across the country 1357 01:12:19,160 --> 01:12:21,920 Speaker 20: starting to get more and more crowded as travelers make 1358 01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 20: their way to their Thanksgiving locations. The good news is 1359 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,800 Speaker 20: President Trump says this Thanksgiving should be a bit more 1360 01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:32,360 Speaker 20: affordable for most Americans, all right. Unfortunately, we're not going 1361 01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 20: to be able to get to that. TRIPLEA estimates in 1362 01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:38,320 Speaker 20: terms of travel that nearly eighty two million Americans are 1363 01:12:38,360 --> 01:12:41,639 Speaker 20: going to be traveling during this Thanksgiving holiday. Seventy three 1364 01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 20: million will travel by car, about six million will fly. Meantime, 1365 01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:49,000 Speaker 20: President Trump saying that your turkey should cost a little 1366 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,400 Speaker 20: bit less than it did last year. That's a great 1367 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:52,520 Speaker 20: check of your headlines. 1368 01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:01,400 Speaker 1: We'll be right back. 1369 01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:04,240 Speaker 11: Good. 1370 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:06,799 Speaker 1: I'm begging the US as all. 1371 01:13:08,439 --> 01:13:08,960 Speaker 18: You don't. 1372 01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:14,559 Speaker 1: All right, Welcome back to The Charlie Kirk Show. 1373 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:19,480 Speaker 16: No Dumb Questions continues hour two on this Wednesday before Thanksgiving. 1374 01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:22,000 Speaker 1: We are thankful for No Dumb Questions.

They were pretty good, 1392 01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:05,080 Speaker 6: but these were the ones that I also had questions about. 1393 01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:11,840 Speaker 21: All right, good morning. Let me say that I love 1394 01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:15,600 Speaker 21: Charlie Kirk. I missed Charlie Kirk, and my best to 1395 01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:20,080 Speaker 21: Erica and all of the team there at Turning Point 1396 01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,320 Speaker 21: USA and Turning Point Action. My question is this, and 1397 01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:30,599 Speaker 21: the cities of Seattle, Washington, Memphis, and all cities where 1398 01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 21: Trump is sitting in the National Guard, what happens when 1399 01:14:34,160 --> 01:14:40,040 Speaker 21: the National Guard leaves and we have a corrupt city council, 1400 01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:46,280 Speaker 21: mayor police chief, etc. Thank you and God bless you. 1401 01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:47,000 Speaker 21: For all you do. 1402 01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:49,720 Speaker 1: Wow, it's you. 1403 01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:52,960 Speaker 7: That's That's the crux about what I think I would 1404 01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 7: I would point out is even in d C most 1405 01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 7: a lot of a lot of what the National Guard 1406 01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:01,560 Speaker 7: has done has primarily been I think you'd agree, symbolic. 1407 01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:07,560 Speaker 7: Having you have the image of people maintaining order in big. 1408 01:15:07,320 --> 01:15:08,479 Speaker 1: Prominent public places. 1409 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,320 Speaker 7: This does free up manpower, It frees up police to 1410 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,000 Speaker 7: send more guys to dangerous places to make arrests for 1411 01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 7: other things. But so much of it is also just 1412 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:21,320 Speaker 7: the bigger it's the miasma, it's the vibe that's going on. 1413 01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:22,920 Speaker 1: Think about what twenty twenty was. 1414 01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:26,800 Speaker 7: Murder rates go up thirty percent overnight, not just in 1415 01:15:26,840 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 7: places where there's riots, they go up in Soutfall, South Dakota. 1416 01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 7: We had nineteen murders that year, a huge increase from others. 1417 01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:37,519 Speaker 7: It was like the country had this psychotic break where 1418 01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:40,479 Speaker 7: it was more okay with committing crimes. People were more 1419 01:15:40,560 --> 01:15:44,160 Speaker 7: violent and police were less willing to stop them. And 1420 01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 7: what Trump's doing with the National Guard deployments, it's less 1421 01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:50,639 Speaker 7: that the Guard are literally arresting people and literally stopping crimes, 1422 01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:54,120 Speaker 7: and much more. It's a bid to say crime is 1423 01:15:54,200 --> 01:15:57,679 Speaker 7: unacceptable in America, especially in our best cities, in our capital, 1424 01:15:58,000 --> 01:15:59,879 Speaker 7: and we are going to treat it as a problem 1425 01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:04,560 Speaker 7: that must be resolved and if not, there will be consequences. 1426 01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,200 Speaker 7: And you're trying to shift, Charlie Love the word the 1427 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:10,720 Speaker 7: Overton window towards crime is a serious thing. You must 1428 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:14,280 Speaker 7: stop and away from what we routinely see where city 1429 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:16,840 Speaker 7: officials just don't view crime as a problem. They want 1430 01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:20,800 Speaker 7: to dismiss charges throughout charges. Let we had that case, 1431 01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:23,559 Speaker 7: I believe it was in Chicago where this guy tried 1432 01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:25,759 Speaker 7: set a woman on fire and he had what fifty 1433 01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:29,760 Speaker 7: prior arrests, one hundred prior seventy two prior to seventy two. 1434 01:16:30,080 --> 01:16:32,640 Speaker 16: And by the way, we've seen instance after instance of this, 1435 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:36,320 Speaker 16: and this was and it's almost like the the what's 1436 01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:37,960 Speaker 16: the what would be a word for it. It's like 1437 01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:40,040 Speaker 16: it's like the zeitgeist, the spirit of the. 1438 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:40,880 Speaker 1: Time or something. 1439 01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:44,080 Speaker 16: Where where you got from the nineties. The nineties was 1440 01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:48,719 Speaker 16: an era where we started policing cities. We flooded urban 1441 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,479 Speaker 16: cores with a lot more police officers, and you saw 1442 01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:55,680 Speaker 16: crime precipitously drop in La New York and then in 1443 01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 16: big cities all across the country. So the spirit of 1444 01:16:57,800 --> 01:16:59,640 Speaker 16: the age then was tough on crime. That's when we 1445 01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:03,360 Speaker 16: got there strikes rule in California, and then city started 1446 01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 16: gentrifying because they were safe to invest in, so business 1447 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 16: money floods in, property values skyrocket and we sort of 1448 01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,719 Speaker 16: forget the lessons of the nineties, and slowly but surely 1449 01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 16: we stopped. We forget the fact that we once lived 1450 01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 16: in a high crime urban core and we lived with 1451 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:21,839 Speaker 16: these problems. 1452 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:22,599 Speaker 1: So then guess what. 1453 01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:26,680 Speaker 16: That's what started happening in twenty fourteen with the Ferguson 1454 01:17:27,280 --> 01:17:28,840 Speaker 16: We had the Ferguson effect. That was kind of the 1455 01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:32,360 Speaker 16: first iteration of the Black Lives Matter movement. And then boom, 1456 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:35,679 Speaker 16: twenty twenty we had the George Floyd riots and it's 1457 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:37,880 Speaker 16: like all of the lessons of the nineties went out 1458 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 16: the window window and here's what else happened. We've had 1459 01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:43,559 Speaker 16: this slow infiltration and you would agree with this, I 1460 01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:46,960 Speaker 16: believe Blake within especially the legal system, where we started. 1461 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:52,200 Speaker 16: We started basically treating crime as well, what race are you, 1462 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:55,720 Speaker 16: what's your background? Have you been systemically oppressed by the systems? 1463 01:17:55,720 --> 01:17:58,759 Speaker 7: Spill over in Canada, you just straight up had core actually, 1464 01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:01,120 Speaker 7: I think in Washington State a court said, oh, you 1465 01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:03,439 Speaker 7: actually just have to consider what race someone is in 1466 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 7: terms of how much you punish them for committing crime. 1467 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:07,840 Speaker 16: Because there was a lot of hocus pocus going on 1468 01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:10,720 Speaker 16: with the data, right, because they would they would essentially say, well, 1469 01:18:10,720 --> 01:18:14,439 Speaker 16: look at too many black people are incarcerated versus their 1470 01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:17,240 Speaker 16: white counterparts or their Hispanic counterparts. Well, and the truth, 1471 01:18:17,439 --> 01:18:20,680 Speaker 16: sadly is, I actually was tweeting about this. Elon gave 1472 01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:23,080 Speaker 16: me a quote tweet this morning because I said, I said, 1473 01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:25,200 Speaker 16: we don't have enough people in prison, and we don't 1474 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:27,559 Speaker 16: have enough capacity either. That's a thought crime for you, 1475 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:30,439 Speaker 16: we don't have enough prison capacity. But anyways, there's this 1476 01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:32,880 Speaker 16: hocus pocus, this kind of woo woo going on with 1477 01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:35,920 Speaker 16: the numbers, saying, well, then black people must be over policed. Well, 1478 01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:38,280 Speaker 16: the truth is is that unfortunately a lot of black 1479 01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:41,040 Speaker 16: people tend to congregate in the urban core, and there's 1480 01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:43,160 Speaker 16: more crime in the black community. This is something Charlie 1481 01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:45,960 Speaker 16: was unafraid to address head on directly, and he took 1482 01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 16: a lot of flak for it. 1483 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:47,679 Speaker 1: But it's just the case. 1484 01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:51,920 Speaker 16: And so we stopped policing, we stopped punishing and we 1485 01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:54,680 Speaker 16: started letting people off. And guess what happens when you 1486 01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:56,840 Speaker 16: do that, You get a spike in crime. And we've 1487 01:18:56,840 --> 01:18:59,640 Speaker 16: had that spike in crime since George Floyd. Now a 1488 01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:01,559 Speaker 16: lot of peop people will then say, well, look at 1489 01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:04,400 Speaker 16: DC Blake, crime was down thirty five percent, we don't 1490 01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:07,080 Speaker 16: need the National Guard. Well, it turns out that they 1491 01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:09,559 Speaker 16: were cooking the books. There was a big investigation that 1492 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:13,679 Speaker 16: was ongoing within the MPD, within the DC Police Department, 1493 01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:19,240 Speaker 16: where supervisors were going around telling police officers to downgrade 1494 01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 16: serious felonies violent felonies, so they didn't show up on 1495 01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:24,760 Speaker 16: the FBI crime statistics. So my belief is that this 1496 01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:27,759 Speaker 16: is a national epidemic that they're doing this in cities 1497 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:30,680 Speaker 16: all across the country. They're downgrading serious felonies so that 1498 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:35,599 Speaker 16: the crime rate looks artificially low. And you get this 1499 01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:39,240 Speaker 16: vibe from places like Chicago and Memphis and DC where 1500 01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:42,920 Speaker 16: they will tell you crime may be going down statistically, 1501 01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:44,599 Speaker 16: but I don't feel safer. 1502 01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:47,040 Speaker 1: I don't feel the crime rate going down. Yeah, And 1503 01:19:47,240 --> 01:19:47,640 Speaker 1: so much of. 1504 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:50,519 Speaker 7: This is it's the word you'd use as disorder, which 1505 01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:53,439 Speaker 7: is it's not just the literal violent crime, it's these 1506 01:19:54,120 --> 01:19:59,000 Speaker 7: casual seeding of the public space to anti social elements. 1507 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 7: So that's what you know, tense cities of homeless guys 1508 01:20:02,120 --> 01:20:04,559 Speaker 7: just kind of moping out or even this is actually 1509 01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:09,440 Speaker 7: a very mild one. But for example, in on subways 1510 01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:12,280 Speaker 7: and in public buses, you're not supposed to play loud 1511 01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:15,759 Speaker 7: music just you know, blast your phone on speaker phone. 1512 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,080 Speaker 7: And what is it one hundred percent known phenomenon is 1513 01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:20,479 Speaker 7: that there'll be young men who just go and as 1514 01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:24,160 Speaker 7: a performatively hostile act, they'll blast their music really lous. 1515 01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:26,000 Speaker 1: Sound pollution, yeah, sound pollution. 1516 01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:29,519 Speaker 7: And you everyone it just has to put up with it, because, okay, 1517 01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:31,519 Speaker 7: if it's like if it's a young if it's a 1518 01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:33,800 Speaker 7: young black man, a fifty five year old guy is 1519 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:35,800 Speaker 7: not going to go up or want a young woman 1520 01:20:35,840 --> 01:20:37,240 Speaker 7: is not going to go up and say turn your 1521 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:40,599 Speaker 7: music off. That's inappropriate because we'll be frank, they'll be worried, 1522 01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:45,120 Speaker 7: they'll get killed or assaulted or something really horrible, or 1523 01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:47,679 Speaker 7: someone will record them on their cell phone and blast 1524 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:50,840 Speaker 7: this paren on TikTok. And the way you have to 1525 01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:53,400 Speaker 7: stop that is you actually have to have authorities. The 1526 01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:56,759 Speaker 7: authorities punish this or think of something that's non violent 1527 01:20:56,880 --> 01:21:00,800 Speaker 7: turnstile jumping. How demoralizing it is it for you to 1528 01:21:01,080 --> 01:21:03,240 Speaker 7: be this, you know, this sucker who has to pull 1529 01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:06,559 Speaker 7: out who's pulling out your card to pay three dollars 1530 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:08,400 Speaker 7: to ride on the subway train? And then you see 1531 01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:12,160 Speaker 7: teenagers jump over it, get on. No one stops them. 1532 01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:14,000 Speaker 1: You have to stop these low level things. 1533 01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:16,920 Speaker 7: That is so important to the public's morale since they 1534 01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:18,759 Speaker 7: live in a successful society. 1535 01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 16: I think so much of the public debate nowadays is 1536 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:25,880 Speaker 16: between chaos and order. You said disorder, it's chaos, which 1537 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,320 Speaker 16: is the Democrats seem to love it. They seem to 1538 01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 16: sow chaos into the system by their policies, by this 1539 01:21:32,760 --> 01:21:36,439 Speaker 16: pandering to criminals and illegal immigrants. They always seem to 1540 01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:40,479 Speaker 16: pick the side of the illegal immigrant, the criminal, the 1541 01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:44,360 Speaker 16: systemically oppressed, overlobbiding American citizens. And I think that's what 1542 01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:46,040 Speaker 16: we saw on twenty twenty four is that finally the 1543 01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:49,960 Speaker 16: country said enough and so they want more aggressive policing, 1544 01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:52,720 Speaker 16: They want more muscular policing. And you just have to 1545 01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:54,840 Speaker 16: to your point at kind of full circle moment, you 1546 01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:57,040 Speaker 16: have to assert a new Overton window. You have to 1547 01:21:57,040 --> 01:21:59,760 Speaker 16: assert a new zeitgeist. That says we are going to 1548 01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:01,760 Speaker 16: be a law and order country. We don't have to 1549 01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,080 Speaker 16: live like this. You can just do things right. So 1550 01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,840 Speaker 16: but by the way, the caller's question was, Blake, what 1551 01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:10,680 Speaker 16: happens when you get corrupt new leadership in town. Well, unfortunately, 1552 01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:13,320 Speaker 16: you're probably going to revert back to the chaos and 1553 01:22:13,360 --> 01:22:16,880 Speaker 16: the disorder of corruption. Right, And so that's why local 1554 01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 16: elections matter. That's why we have to keep our pedal 1555 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:22,679 Speaker 16: to the medal and keep insisting on law and order, 1556 01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:25,639 Speaker 16: keep insisting that we lock up career criminals. You know, Blake, 1557 01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:29,200 Speaker 16: I actually believe let's get into oh, I just actually 1558 01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:32,240 Speaker 16: believe that if you if you incarcerated, let's say there's 1559 01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:34,519 Speaker 16: probably five hundred thousand people in this country that deserve 1560 01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:36,559 Speaker 16: to be in prison that are not. Let's just say 1561 01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:38,559 Speaker 16: maybe that's a low number, but if you got rid 1562 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:40,559 Speaker 16: of the career criminals, you would see crime dry. 1563 01:22:40,439 --> 01:22:43,679 Speaker 1: Up really quick. All right, let's see we have got more. 1564 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:45,360 Speaker 6: Of these Iowa one. 1565 01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:46,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk. Okay, I have brode what this is 1566 01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:50,360 Speaker 1: going to be. Let's do two sixty nine from Scott 1567 01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:51,719 Speaker 1: as a voter. 1568 01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 17: In Iowa, home to the Senate Judiciary Committee, Chairman, I 1569 01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:58,400 Speaker 17: want to ask your view on how that committee's delay 1570 01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:03,720 Speaker 17: and rigid adherence to the outdated blue slip process contributed 1571 01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:08,400 Speaker 17: to this week's outcomes regarding James Comey and Letitia James. 1572 01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:12,479 Speaker 6: So my question before we get to his question is 1573 01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:15,680 Speaker 6: I don't know what I don't even know what he 1574 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:16,519 Speaker 6: acts because I. 1575 01:23:16,520 --> 01:23:16,880 Speaker 8: Don't know. 1576 01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:18,759 Speaker 1: Process. 1577 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,800 Speaker 7: This is a good question an aspect of So, the 1578 01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:24,799 Speaker 7: president appoints judges, they're called Article three judges. 1579 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 1: That's so it's not just the Supreme Court. 1580 01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:28,640 Speaker 7: Trump can appoint people to the Court of Appeals and 1581 01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 7: to the district court. And a lot of district courts 1582 01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:36,320 Speaker 7: are they match basically state boundaries. So for example, there's 1583 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 7: the Southern District of New York that is a federal 1584 01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:41,439 Speaker 7: court that covers southern New York where New York City is. 1585 01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:44,920 Speaker 7: Or I think there's a district for South Dakota. There's 1586 01:23:44,960 --> 01:23:47,960 Speaker 7: a district for different parts of California. There's a bunch 1587 01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:54,680 Speaker 7: of these. And by tradition, when you've nominated judges to 1588 01:23:54,720 --> 01:23:58,120 Speaker 7: serve on these district courts in a specific state, it's 1589 01:23:58,160 --> 01:24:02,400 Speaker 7: been with some like approval of the senators from that state. 1590 01:24:03,040 --> 01:24:05,559 Speaker 7: And so what that has meant, for example, is you 1591 01:24:05,680 --> 01:24:11,040 Speaker 7: get more conservative judges even under Democrat administrations in red states, 1592 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:14,479 Speaker 7: and you get more liberal judges in blue states because 1593 01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:16,200 Speaker 7: they're going to have these blue senators who will not 1594 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:20,559 Speaker 7: allow you to just appoint whoever you want. And this 1595 01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:22,400 Speaker 7: has I guess you could say the upside of this 1596 01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:24,400 Speaker 7: would be get you have judges who are a little 1597 01:24:24,439 --> 01:24:26,479 Speaker 7: more in line with their states. But the downside is obvious. 1598 01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:29,960 Speaker 7: A lot of our most important jurisdictions, New York City, 1599 01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:33,519 Speaker 7: the Bay Area, Los Angeles, they're in these blue states 1600 01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:36,559 Speaker 7: that are just going to have blue judges, and you 1601 01:24:36,640 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 7: get more liberal rulings as a result. When Okay, we've 1602 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 7: had these Republicans in office for so long with Senate, 1603 01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:44,640 Speaker 7: why don't we have more conservative courts that will are 1604 01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:48,160 Speaker 7: delivering conservative rulings on things. How much is this playing 1605 01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:50,439 Speaker 7: a role in things? It definitely is playing a role. 1606 01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:53,759 Speaker 7: I don't think it played a super specific role. 1607 01:24:53,640 --> 01:24:57,519 Speaker 16: In the Komi ruling unless so here's here's the deal. 1608 01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:02,799 Speaker 16: This is Judge Cameron McGowan Curry. So she was actually 1609 01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:07,479 Speaker 16: from she was appointed by President Bill Clinton, who's a Democrat. Yeah, 1610 01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:10,680 Speaker 16: in March nineteen ninety four. But she originally was to 1611 01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 16: the U. S. District Court of South Carolina. At the time, 1612 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:16,439 Speaker 16: a blue slip policy wasn't in effect. And guess who 1613 01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 16: was chairing the Senate Judiciary Committee at the ten was. 1614 01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:20,080 Speaker 1: It already Grassley? 1615 01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:21,439 Speaker 7: He's been around Joe Biden. 1616 01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 1: Oh, whoa yeah, Joseph Robert that Biden get this. 1617 01:25:25,600 --> 01:25:28,240 Speaker 16: South Carolina's two senators of ninety four were Strom Thurman, 1618 01:25:28,320 --> 01:25:33,040 Speaker 16: a Republican, and Ernst Holings, a Democrat, and both the 1619 01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:37,120 Speaker 16: Republican and the Democrat gave a positive blue slip on 1620 01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:39,000 Speaker 16: that particular none an important thing. 1621 01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:41,360 Speaker 7: The blue slip is a thing, and we probably should 1622 01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:44,719 Speaker 7: move on from it and get actual conservatives in court. 1623 01:25:44,840 --> 01:25:46,800 Speaker 7: But there's so many other things, and one of those 1624 01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:48,639 Speaker 7: is just we have to be really good about who 1625 01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:51,479 Speaker 7: we're putting in courts, because conservatives have for a long 1626 01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:56,439 Speaker 7: time lagged on treating these as hugely important ideological actions. 1627 01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:59,760 Speaker 7: To get really conservative people with good values in the 1628 01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:00,640 Speaker 7: court positions. 1629 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 16: More no dumb questions coming soon, but we are first 1630 01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:09,080 Speaker 16: going to tell you about culture and Christianity.

The reason I 1692 01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:45,200 Speaker 6: know about this situation is from Nicki Minaj, who has 1693 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:50,280 Speaker 6: been talking about it everywhere she's doing press conferences. She's tweeting. 1694 01:29:50,320 --> 01:29:52,120 Speaker 6: I know Riley and I have been talking about about 1695 01:29:52,120 --> 01:29:56,360 Speaker 6: it a lot. Nicki Minaj is really really in on 1696 01:29:56,400 --> 01:29:58,920 Speaker 6: this Ethiopian crisis for Christian. 1697 01:29:58,680 --> 01:30:02,599 Speaker 7: Which is interesting because she's not from She's Trinidadian, I believe, right, 1698 01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:05,240 Speaker 7: from Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean. 1699 01:30:05,520 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 1: I haven't that would be fun though, yeah, I believe. 1700 01:30:09,360 --> 01:30:13,240 Speaker 7: So, I don't know if she now I'm. 1701 01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:16,280 Speaker 16: Looking at I can I just while you're looking this up. 1702 01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:19,360 Speaker 16: So on October thirty first, Trump designated Nigeria as a 1703 01:30:19,479 --> 01:30:23,519 Speaker 16: country of Particular concern. On November one, he threatened to 1704 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:27,960 Speaker 16: halt all US foreign aid and deploy military guns ablazing 1705 01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:33,880 Speaker 16: if killings continue. November two ordered the Pentagon to refer 1706 01:30:33,960 --> 01:30:36,519 Speaker 16: to his Department of War to prepare for possible action, 1707 01:30:36,640 --> 01:30:40,439 Speaker 16: including troops or air strikes, and then November twenty one 1708 01:30:40,720 --> 01:30:43,920 Speaker 16: labeled the violence a genocide against Christians during a Fox 1709 01:30:43,920 --> 01:30:44,479 Speaker 16: News interview. 1710 01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:46,320 Speaker 1: So he's been ratcheting up his language. 1711 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 16: And of course this is about Boko Haram, which is 1712 01:30:49,520 --> 01:30:51,920 Speaker 16: a radical Islamist group that is tardier if. 1713 01:30:51,880 --> 01:30:52,200 Speaker 1: You want to. 1714 01:30:52,439 --> 01:30:55,519 Speaker 7: We talked about Ukraine being a somewhat unnatural country with 1715 01:30:55,600 --> 01:31:00,719 Speaker 7: Russian portions. Nigeria is. It's an insanely unnown trouble much 1716 01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:03,800 Speaker 7: the top. It literally is on a scale. If you 1717 01:31:03,840 --> 01:31:08,280 Speaker 7: start at the south of Nigeria, you have Christian areas mixed, mix, mix. 1718 01:31:08,360 --> 01:31:10,879 Speaker 7: You get up into the north and it's not just Muslim, 1719 01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:16,200 Speaker 7: it's radical Muslim. They're trying to boko Haram roughly translates 1720 01:31:16,280 --> 01:31:22,519 Speaker 7: as Western knowledge forbidden or like education forbidden. There they'll 1721 01:31:22,520 --> 01:31:25,920 Speaker 7: do things. They do insane atrocities. You know, you'll they'll 1722 01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:30,040 Speaker 7: kidnap Christian girls and turn them into sex slaves for 1723 01:31:30,120 --> 01:31:30,799 Speaker 7: their soldiers. 1724 01:31:31,600 --> 01:31:33,480 Speaker 1: Nigeria should very obviously. 1725 01:31:34,040 --> 01:31:36,160 Speaker 7: I'm probably going to start a diplomatic incident by just 1726 01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:38,679 Speaker 7: saying this. Nigeria should not be one country. Nigeria should 1727 01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:41,000 Speaker 7: probably be several countries. Maybe the Nigerians will get angry 1728 01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:41,360 Speaker 7: about this. 1729 01:31:41,560 --> 01:31:43,479 Speaker 1: Well, it's you have. 1730 01:31:43,800 --> 01:31:46,320 Speaker 16: I mean, some estimates place it at almost one hundred 1731 01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:49,800 Speaker 16: and twenty five thousand Christians have died between twenty twenty 1732 01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:51,880 Speaker 16: three and twenty it'd be on the high level. 1733 01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:55,759 Speaker 7: It's a nation almost evenly split between Christians and Muslims. 1734 01:31:55,800 --> 01:31:58,240 Speaker 7: But I believe the Muslims are growing faster, so that's 1735 01:31:58,240 --> 01:32:00,679 Speaker 7: a very dire situation to be in. You're a Christian 1736 01:32:00,680 --> 01:32:04,479 Speaker 7: in the South, and then it's the same thing. Why 1737 01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:08,240 Speaker 7: is Ethiopia the same issue. Ethiopia is historically one of 1738 01:32:08,240 --> 01:32:11,120 Speaker 7: the oldest Christian countries in the world. It's been Christian 1739 01:32:11,160 --> 01:32:13,160 Speaker 7: since I believe the three hundreds or the four hundreds. 1740 01:32:13,160 --> 01:32:17,120 Speaker 7: I have a story here and they But the country 1741 01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:20,200 Speaker 7: is it was, It's large, it has a lot of 1742 01:32:20,280 --> 01:32:22,759 Speaker 7: Islamic areas, so it has a lot of civil strife, 1743 01:32:22,760 --> 01:32:25,840 Speaker 7: and Christians get caught in the crossfire. And certainly we're 1744 01:32:25,840 --> 01:32:29,400 Speaker 7: seeing that our administration has at least adopted it as 1745 01:32:29,400 --> 01:32:32,439 Speaker 7: something worthy of interest for us to care about the 1746 01:32:32,439 --> 01:32:33,800 Speaker 7: fate of Christians around the world. 1747 01:32:33,880 --> 01:32:38,160 Speaker 16: Philip in the Bible, Yes went to Ethiopia. Yes, and 1748 01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:43,000 Speaker 16: he baptized the Ethiopian Unich as well. So one thing 1749 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:46,400 Speaker 16: I will say that was very telling. So I was 1750 01:32:46,439 --> 01:32:49,240 Speaker 16: actually got an uber ride a guy. The guy was 1751 01:32:49,280 --> 01:32:53,479 Speaker 16: Ethiopian and we were talking about Islam in Ethiopia, and 1752 01:32:53,479 --> 01:32:54,960 Speaker 16: he said, when he was growing up there was a 1753 01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:58,400 Speaker 16: very small minority of Muslims in Ethiopian. He remembers playing 1754 01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:01,800 Speaker 16: with them as a kid. They sort of minded their 1755 01:33:01,800 --> 01:33:04,599 Speaker 16: own business. They were a small SMA minority, but now 1756 01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:07,120 Speaker 16: he said it's probably about like thirty percent in his 1757 01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:10,280 Speaker 16: area of Ethiopia. And he said, now they're taking over. 1758 01:33:10,360 --> 01:33:13,120 Speaker 16: They're taking over the streets, they're taking over public places, 1759 01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:15,920 Speaker 16: they're worshiping allowed, they've got the Muslim called a prayer. 1760 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:20,160 Speaker 16: And he was like, I warn you in America, don't 1761 01:33:20,200 --> 01:33:21,639 Speaker 16: let this happen. They will take over. 1762 01:33:21,720 --> 01:33:23,519 Speaker 7: And this is places they can get a lot more 1763 01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:26,639 Speaker 7: aggressive about it. These are weak states. You don't have 1764 01:33:27,200 --> 01:33:29,600 Speaker 7: a police force that can come in enforce order. You 1765 01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:33,840 Speaker 7: can have an aggressive, assertive Islam take over a city, 1766 01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:36,200 Speaker 7: kill a lot of people. And what I will say 1767 01:33:36,240 --> 01:33:38,920 Speaker 7: is Charlie would oppose more US boots on the ground 1768 01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:41,160 Speaker 7: in more countries. He didn't want foreign wars, but he 1769 01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:44,919 Speaker 7: would like that for once America does treat the survival 1770 01:33:44,960 --> 01:33:48,160 Speaker 7: of Christians as a priority abroad. We did, we invaded Iraq, 1771 01:33:48,240 --> 01:33:50,879 Speaker 7: we did all these interventions, and it almost always Christians 1772 01:33:50,880 --> 01:33:53,000 Speaker 7: died in the crossfire. So it's nice for us to 1773 01:33:53,080 --> 01:33:54,240 Speaker 7: acknowledge that that's bad. 1774 01:33:54,960 --> 01:33:56,800 Speaker 16: By the way, Rich says that we forgot that the 1775 01:33:56,880 --> 01:33:59,320 Speaker 16: Ukraine was the bread basket of the former USSR. 1776 01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:01,680 Speaker 1: True, very fair point. That's true. That's where all the 1777 01:34:01,680 --> 01:34:02,920 Speaker 1: food was. That was fun. 1778 01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:05,000 Speaker 7: This is a lot of fun. People want more history content. 1779 01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:06,439 Speaker 7: We've got to find more history stuff. 1780 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:07,479 Speaker 1: We could keep going if. 1781 01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:09,920 Speaker 16: We want, but for radio, in real America's voice, we 1782 01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:11,840 Speaker 16: bid you ado happy Thanksgiving. 1783 01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:12,880 Speaker 1: We will see you next week.
