Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcastle make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Oppenheimer is a big budget
Speaker 1: Hollywood film, but I saw over the Thanksgiving Break and
Speaker 1: I wanted to give you my review of it now,
Speaker 1: Christopher Nolan, I'm gon upset some people probably in this,
Speaker 1: so get ready strap in, but my opinions on these
Speaker 1: things are always correct. Christopher Nolan is a very overrated
Speaker 1: director who makes a lot of ponderous, self important movies,
Speaker 1: just saying what's true that movie Inception, I don't even
Speaker 1: I can't remember anything that happened. There's like a van
Speaker 1: falling in a dimension, and then another van falling, and
Speaker 1: then there's like a third van and another. It's absurd.
Speaker 1: It's a horrible movie. It was boring, it was bloated,
Speaker 1: and he's done that with a number of different films.
Speaker 1: I even thought that Dunkirk, which I think is also
Speaker 1: Christopher Nolan, very interesting concept, and some of the anxiety
Speaker 1: produces good start to the movie, but after a while
Speaker 1: you're like, why am I watching this? Why don't need
Speaker 1: to see these boats kind of just making their way
Speaker 1: slowly the whole thing. I think that he's overrated. I
Speaker 1: love the first Batman Begins movie, even though there's some
Speaker 1: very poor casting decisions that anyway, it's not about chrispher Nolean.
Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about why Oppenheimer is
Speaker 1: part of the continuous effort by Hollywood, by the media
Speaker 1: industry to lie to you about Communist penetrations of the
Speaker 1: United States government and the massive Soviet espionage, including of
Speaker 1: our nuclear secrets, that was successfully conducted against us, and
Speaker 1: this notion of the Red Scare and McCarthyism and all
Speaker 1: the blacklists in Hollywood, and it was also about everything else.
Speaker 1: We had Commie penetrations all over this country at the
Speaker 1: highest levels of government and in our most sensitive military
Speaker 1: and defense secrets. That's the truth. Now you watch Oppenheimer,
Speaker 1: and look, it makes me so mad because the bad
Speaker 1: guy in the movie, they're trying to beat the Nazis
Speaker 1: by getting the nuke, and then they're trying to, you know,
Speaker 1: figure out should they share this information with the Soviets
Speaker 1: the Soviet Union. Stalin is as evil as the Nazis were.
Speaker 1: I don't know why this is so hard for me
Speaker 1: to comprehend. Stalin killed millions and millions and millions of
Speaker 1: people brutally murdered at the hands of his secret police
Speaker 1: all over I mean, he created mass starvation. I mean,
Speaker 1: but there's always this thing with the left, and you
Speaker 1: see this in Oppenheimer. It's like, well maybe you know Stalin. Oh, okay,
Speaker 1: the sorry, there's so much to cover here. They always
Speaker 1: want to pretend that communism is not the monstrous evil
Speaker 1: that it is. That's really what it comes down to. Okay,
Speaker 1: So why have a problem with Oppenheimer? I mean, on
Speaker 1: a purely movie review basis, the first hour of the
Speaker 1: movie you don't even need to see. There's basically no
Speaker 1: point the timeline. They got the hearings that are post
Speaker 1: World War two, and then they go then they go
Speaker 1: back to pre World War two and then into World
Speaker 1: War two era and they're building the bomb and they
Speaker 1: go back to the hearings and you don't know what the
Speaker 1: heck is going on. And I know they used the
Speaker 1: book American Prometheus about Oppenheimer's life. It's a biography. I
Speaker 1: know they use that very much as the template for
Speaker 1: the movie. But you know, sometimes you need a good editor,
Speaker 1: and this movie, it's three hours long. You can the
Speaker 1: whole first hour of it. I'm telling you don't need
Speaker 1: it at all. The part where they actually are in
Speaker 1: Los Alamos and you know, preparing for the to have
Speaker 1: the first nuclear detonation, everything and the way they do
Speaker 1: the first nuclear detonation, that's all per that's all pretty
Speaker 1: well done. And then the third hour is basically all
Speaker 1: just you know, oh my gosh, they're harassing Oppenheimer because
Speaker 1: they can't trust him because they think he's a communist.
Speaker 1: And it's like, wow, why are the military and the
Speaker 1: government are so bad because they think they're all these communists?
Speaker 1: There were communists all over the place. Now let me
Speaker 1: get I'm going to get into things that you should
Speaker 1: know about communist penetration of the United States government, of
Speaker 1: the massive campaign of espionage, about the spying that was
Speaker 1: going on by Americans who betrayed their country, who were
Speaker 1: traders of the worst kind, because they sympathized with the
Speaker 1: Soviet Union, because they were fellow travelers, they were Commedis
Speaker 1: at heart, they were you know, commed trash and you don't.
Speaker 1: I mean, their names are generally not known to most people.
Speaker 1: I'll walk you through some of this. And because Oppenheimer.
Speaker 1: We don't get me started. The bad guys, the people
Speaker 1: that are worried that you can't trust people that are
Speaker 1: really left wing and have left wing sympathies because you can't,
Speaker 1: because you can't. But you know, they rely on the
Speaker 1: ignorance of the general public on this thing. Look, I
Speaker 1: would talk to you as something else for a second.
Speaker 1: Where do you turn to if you get fired? Because oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe you go to a sports game
Speaker 1: and you know, you paint your face the colors of
Speaker 1: the sports team, and then someone says, oh, well, like
Speaker 1: you're painting your face of color and that's racist somehow
Speaker 1: because of what the color is or something. This happens
Speaker 1: to people. Where do you go? Who do you turn to?
Speaker 1: How do you if you get fired from your job?
Speaker 1: Can you sue? Do you have the money for it?
Speaker 1: There's a legal defense that's out there for people as
Speaker 1: really part of something that's a membership called Patriot Defender.
Speaker 1: So if you speak up at the school board meeting
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden people take action against you,
Speaker 1: they kick your kid out of school, or you know whatever,
Speaker 1: they try to get you fired from your job. Patriot
Speaker 1: Defender has you covered go to patriot defender dot com.
Speaker 1: All right, they can provide you in most states. Now

Speaker 1: concealed carry defense. If you've used your weapon, they will

Speaker 1: against the consequences of being targeted by the woke and
Speaker 1: by the lunatics of the left. This is just something
Speaker 1: you need to have. Patriot deefender dot com. Go check
Speaker 1: it out. Okay, So why do I think, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: know the former CIA guys like, oh, maybe the military
Speaker 1: industrial Complex how to point about not trusting the commies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we did have a point about not trusting the commedies.
Speaker 1: See this all goes to, first of all, the Democrat
Speaker 1: Party today and the left in America still has a
Speaker 1: fondness for I just gonna say they have a fondness
Speaker 1: for communism. They think that, you know, true communism has
Speaker 1: never been tried. I mean, they actually buy into all
Speaker 1: that crap. They think that that's not insane, and of
Speaker 1: course it is insane. But let me get into the
Speaker 1: specifics here. And this is what makes me so mad
Speaker 1: about Appenheimer. There's a guy that they mentioned, Klaus Fuchs,
Speaker 1: who is Yeah, they mentioned that he was stealing nuclear
Speaker 1: secrets and passing them to the Soviets. They're like, oh, man,
Speaker 1: this guy Klaus, Yeah, it's just like a throwaway. And
Speaker 1: then they're like, oh my gosh, they don't trust Oppenheimer.
Speaker 1: Why these guys are patriots. They did all this amazing stuff,
Speaker 1: and they built the bomb, and it was an amazing project.
Speaker 1: And look, Manhattan Project was a phenomenal scientific achievement. I'm
Speaker 1: not trying to say it wasn't these guys. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't even think I could do long division.
Speaker 1: These guys are doing, you know, nuclear fission, nuclear fusion
Speaker 1: and changing the world we live in. I get all that.
Speaker 1: I mean, it is an amazing story. Don't get me wrong,
Speaker 1: and I just think it could have been done much
Speaker 1: better than it was. But the politics around that are
Speaker 1: what pissed me off. That's where I get really upset. Okay,
Speaker 1: so they mentioned Klaus and they say he stole stuff.
Speaker 1: There were other as we know, there were other spies
Speaker 1: for the Soviets who got access to what we had
Speaker 1: at Los Alamos. There were a handful of them, and
Speaker 1: most notably there were the Rosenbergs who passed Julius and
Speaker 1: Ethel Rosenberg who passed secrets to the Soviets about the
Speaker 1: nuclear program, about missile propulsion systems, all kind, I mean,
Speaker 1: the most important, most sensitive stuff. Stalin probably got nukes
Speaker 1: they estimate three or four years sooner than he would
Speaker 1: have because of the penetrations of Los Alamos. So this
Speaker 1: notion that, look, they're just so paranoid. Why are they
Speaker 1: so worried about communists? Hmm, there's no big breath. They
Speaker 1: should have been paranoid. Now, now, why do I know
Speaker 1: this stuff? First of all, there was you know, the
Speaker 1: academic the academic you know, the the institutional left on
Speaker 1: college campuses and such. They spent decades because the Rosenbergs
Speaker 1: were both executed for espionage at I think it was
Speaker 1: at sing sing the prison and Upstate New York. They're
Speaker 1: both executed, man and woman for passing on and nuclear
Speaker 1: secrets to the Soviets. And the were old these people
Speaker 1: that they were innocent. No, they weren't, They were guilty.
Speaker 1: How do I know they're guilty. Well, right in the
Speaker 1: thick of the Second World War, the military intelligence arm
Speaker 1: for our military that became the NSAS it was a
Speaker 1: military signals intelligence component became the National Security Agency later
Speaker 1: had set up a program called Project Venona. And Project
Speaker 1: Venona was a basically a decryption program for cables from
Speaker 1: the Soviet embassy in New York back to Moscow. And
Speaker 1: the Soviets had this two factor of encryption. They thought
Speaker 1: it would never they'd never be able, no one would
Speaker 1: ever be able to beat this two factor. Turns out
Speaker 1: they made a couple of mistakes, and yes, just like
Speaker 1: when we beat the Nazi Enigma machine in World War
Speaker 1: Two and then we knew where their submarines were. It
Speaker 1: was hugely important to the war effort. We were able
Speaker 1: to actually I know the British did, we helped whatever,
Speaker 1: but we were able to crack with Project Venona. So
Speaker 1: they ended up seeing cable traffic, and they knew that
Speaker 1: there were about three hundred active Soviet agents that Venona.
Speaker 1: This program went on for decades, but three hundred active
Speaker 1: Soviet agents that Venona can identify enough. Some of them
Speaker 1: were only known by their code names, so they couldn't
Speaker 1: find out who they were, but others we did figure
Speaker 1: out who they were, and the Rosenbergs, for example, were
Speaker 1: Soviet agents. But this was a highly highly sensitive program,
Speaker 1: so it couldn't be introduced into a court because the
Speaker 1: military didn't want to give up that we were reading
Speaker 1: the Soviet's most sensitive traffic from this country back to Moscow.
Speaker 1: There were also Communist Party USA elements that were acting
Speaker 1: directly at the behest of Moscow. So there were American
Speaker 1: communists who were in kahoots with the Soviet Union, with
Speaker 1: Stalin's and the monstrous regime that he had that was
Speaker 1: a reality, and Venona, which was I think the last
Speaker 1: cables from Venona were declassified in nineteen ninety five from
Speaker 1: this program. This program started in the early nineteen forties.
Speaker 1: It wasn't a nineteen ninety five that they finally I
Speaker 1: think that they finally released like three thousand pages or
Speaker 1: something of a Venona project. But so we did have
Speaker 1: major Communist penetrations. There were Communist stooges at the at
Speaker 1: the CIA, OSS and then later Central Intelligence Agency, at
Speaker 1: the State Department, Alger Hiss, Kammi spy, Lachlan Curry Kammy spy,
Speaker 1: the Cambridge Five in the UK, very highly placed Commy spies.
Speaker 1: They were all over the place. See, I'm here to
Speaker 1: tell you McCarthy was basically right. He was basically right.
Speaker 1: And the left hates all of this because it was
Speaker 1: all such a betrayal of Americamerica and it was happening.
Speaker 1: It was happening during the Cold War, it was happening
Speaker 1: during World War Two. It went on for decades. The
Speaker 1: American left was willing to subvert an undermine the United
Speaker 1: States to our enemies because they thought that the communist
Speaker 1: utopia is going to come along because of Stalin. These
Speaker 1: people are I say, they're idiots. I mean, yeah, they
Speaker 1: have real some of them have high cognitive function, meaning
Speaker 1: they have you know, decent brain power. But they have
Speaker 1: no judgment, they have no character, they have no ethics.
Speaker 1: And it's true of so many leftists. You know, they
Speaker 1: can be you know, good at math or something, but
Speaker 1: they were like, climate change is going to kill the world.
Speaker 1: Now we have to have totalitarianism. They're out of their minds,
Speaker 1: they're mind But see this, this is why Oppenheimer makes me.
Speaker 1: Made me so mad as I was watching and I
Speaker 1: my family got, you know, both barrels of this for me,
Speaker 1: and we're watching. I said, this is such nonsense, because
Speaker 1: they really make it seem like it's just this paranoid government.
Speaker 1: Why don't they trust Oppenheimer, Why don't they trust all
Speaker 1: the people you brought in because they're were spies. Because
Speaker 1: they shouldn't have trusted all of them because it was
Speaker 1: a huge concern because they did end up giving nuclear
Speaker 1: secrets that were paid for by the US tax payer,
Speaker 1: by the way, you know the billions of dollars that
Speaker 1: went into this project, Manhattan Project, and that's in nineteen
Speaker 1: forties dollars. It was stolen to give it to the Soviets.
Speaker 1: And there are people in this country who were acting
Speaker 1: to help the KGB. They a lot of them would
Speaker 1: sort of tell themselves. And this comes across a little
Speaker 1: bit in Oppenheimer because there's a few incidents they do
Speaker 1: mention with this where they're like, oh, we just want
Speaker 1: the Soviets to know, because there are allies against the Nazis.
Speaker 1: They're good guys too. Soviets are horrible. In fact, the
Speaker 1: NSA program, or rather the military program that became the
Speaker 1: NSA that had Venona or that was the Venona projects,
Speaker 1: started out not to find Soviet spies in this country.
Speaker 1: It was to see if the Soviets were planning to
Speaker 1: ally after after the Nazi invasion, was there going to
Speaker 1: be a separate piece and maybe a turnabout where all
Speaker 1: of a sudden the Nazis and the Soviets would start
Speaker 1: fighting against us again, because you know, Stalin was a
Speaker 1: completely immoral disgrace to humanity, and communism was every bit
Speaker 1: the threat, every bit the threat to us that fascism was,
Speaker 1: as we found out. So that's the truth of it.
Speaker 1: But you know, they don't want you to know the truth.
Speaker 1: They don't want you to know these things. And I
Speaker 1: just I the whole movie is meant to be like, oh, look,
Speaker 1: why didn't we trust them? Why were people so concerned
Speaker 1: about this? They should have been concerned, and it happened.
Speaker 1: It's not just like it was a worry and it
Speaker 1: was a legitimate, legitimate for them to worry about it. It happened.
Speaker 1: They stole our stuff, they stole our nuclear secrets, and
Speaker 1: you know, get back to the American Communist Party here
Speaker 1: in just a second. You know, this is the time
Speaker 1: when you can do something really good with your money.
Speaker 1: I know you're going to be spending money on Christmas
Speaker 1: gifts and everything else. How about just setting us out
Speaker 1: a little bit of money for America's heroes, and I
Speaker 1: really mean that, the people who are the true heroes
Speaker 1: who sacrifice for this country. This is the annual season
Speaker 1: of Hope at Talented Towers between Thanksgiving Christmas, the foundation
Speaker 1: is delivering mortgage free homes to dozens of Americas, really
Speaker 1: injured veterans, Versus responders, and gold star and fallen first
Speaker 1: responder of families. Tune of the Towers gives heroes mortgage
Speaker 1: free homes, often mortgage free smart homes to ease the
Speaker 1: financial burden on that family and make day to day
Speaker 1: life easier for them. Help honor America's heroes. Please. It's
Speaker 1: just eleven dollars a month. I mean, this is not
Speaker 1: a lot of money. I know times are tight now
Speaker 1: for a lot of people, and they are because the
Speaker 1: prices are really high, and the Biden administration is horrible.
Speaker 1: But eleven dollars a month, it's a couple of cups
Speaker 1: of coffee. T two T dot org. Just go to
Speaker 1: T the number two T dot org tunnel, the Towers
Speaker 1: Foundation T two t dot org. Please donate eleven dollars
Speaker 1: a month. And then the they just don't teach They
Speaker 1: don't teach any of this history anymore, that the communist
Speaker 1: part of USA was a real entity, that there were
Speaker 1: members of it who were not just sort of dabbling
Speaker 1: in things, who were hoping. Remember, the Great Depression was
Speaker 1: viewed in the West as the failure of pitolism, and
Speaker 1: so you get into the nineteen thirties, they were the
Speaker 1: era of FDR, and there are all these people who think, oh,
Speaker 1: the problem is capitalism, The solution is socialism, communism. Remarks
Speaker 1: wrote about socialism and communism interchangeably effectively. So the solution
Speaker 1: is communism. And there were a lot of people in
Speaker 1: this country who believed that. And they thought that Stalin
Speaker 1: was some kind of a hero and that his regime
Speaker 1: was better that the Soviet Union. There were many Americans
Speaker 1: in the nineteen thirties who thought the Soviet Union had
Speaker 1: figured out and America was the problem. They were disloyal,
Speaker 1: they were traitors to their country, and they were all
Speaker 1: left wing Democrats who liked FDR. That's the truth, and
Speaker 1: that's why there's all this all. But you know, and
Speaker 1: there were communist part of USA individuals who helped the
Speaker 1: Soviet Union who were there. They were just like, like idiot,
Speaker 1: you know, just the childishness of their worldview. These these
Speaker 1: Americans who thought, oh, I'm going to help Stalin because
Speaker 1: that well, you know, if Stalin has more of our
Speaker 1: nuclear secrets or more of our military information, then we'll
Speaker 1: be at military parody and there won't be an arms
Speaker 1: race or something. It's insane, It's insane. This is why
Speaker 1: Walter Duranty New York Times covered up the Holadamor, which
Speaker 1: is the famine, the man made famine in Ukraine killed
Speaker 1: millions of people Stalin. This is why, you know, the
Speaker 1: elite intelligency in America sold out not just their country,
Speaker 1: but the most basic moral and ethical principles because they
Speaker 1: thought that they were on some sort of you know,
Speaker 1: sacred mission. Being a comedy. And that's why I watch
Speaker 1: I watch Oppenheimer, and I just find it so frustrating
Speaker 1: because they really should tell people the truth about these regimes.
Speaker 1: They really should tell people the truth about what a
Speaker 1: threat the United States was under. There wasn't a Red scare.
Speaker 1: There was a red wave of communists in this country
Speaker 1: who stole from our stole from our government in the
Speaker 1: most sensitive information possible. And you know, we came to
Speaker 1: the brink of a nuclear nuclear war with the Soviet
Speaker 1: Union a couple of times, most notably the Cuban Missile crisis.
Speaker 1: But you know, things got things got really scary there
Speaker 1: for a while. And there are people in our country
Speaker 1: who thought, you know, the Soviets are the good guys,
Speaker 1: and they are all this. They all have the same
Speaker 1: ideology and the same proclivities as Democrats today. The left
Speaker 1: hasn't really changed that much in this country. That's what
Speaker 1: you have to remember. They just the same impulses, the
Speaker 1: same worldview. It's just morphed now into you know, what
Speaker 1: we know of today's sort of left wing democrats or progressives.
Speaker 1: But the people today who you know were the aocs,
Speaker 1: and they all would be the kind of individuals who
Speaker 1: would have passed secrets to the Soviets back in the
Speaker 1: day because they thought, you know, oh, they're the good guys,
Speaker 1: and that's why Oppenheimer just totally whitewashes that, and it's
Speaker 1: it's just more commie propaganda trash and doesn't tell people
Speaker 1: the truth about it. You know, they should make a
Speaker 1: movie about, you know, about all the reality of the
Speaker 1: Soviet agents operating in this country, the sleeper cells that
Speaker 1: we're operating in this country, the deep cover agents that
Speaker 1: we are. But you know, illegals is it's actually the
Speaker 1: term the Soviets used to use for the illegals, meaning
Speaker 1: they weren't under any kind of a diplomatic cover. So yeah, anyway,
Speaker 1: that's my review of Oppenheimer boring long and politically it's
Speaker 1: comi trash. So there you go. Have you ever been
Speaker 1: to Belize? I know that's kind of random, but I
Speaker 1: just think it's a country that's going to be more
Speaker 1: and more on people's radars these days. It's amazing. And
Speaker 1: you know, you can buy property there for you can
Speaker 1: still get property there. It's great new construction a lot
Speaker 1: of cases that's so reasonable. It's a long term investment.
Speaker 1: Memory you buy property there. You own property outside the
Speaker 1: US in a country with very stable laws, stable economy,
Speaker 1: stable currency and you have a place to go to
Speaker 1: on vacation because Belize is amazing and you should consider this.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can consider getting some property. Why believe
Speaker 1: well has some of the best diving in the world.
Speaker 1: It's got jungle you know, rainforest stuff that's amazing. Ego. See,
Speaker 1: it's got great food. People are very friendly, they're happy
Speaker 1: to see Americans. A lot of Americans are already going
Speaker 1: there and visiting Belize is really cool. So I want
Speaker 1: you to think about maybe Belize is for you, just
Speaker 1: not just traveling there, maybe even getting some property there,
Speaker 1: you know, in case things get really crazy here in
Speaker 1: the US too. Maybe having a place that you can
Speaker 1: go to not a bad idea, right, good long term investment.
Speaker 1: Go check this out Belize isfun dot com again, Belize
Speaker 1: is Fun dot com. That's the website you go check out.
Speaker 1: You'll see more information there. That's the show for today,
