1
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 1: Can leave. Everyone, Welcome to Stinchfield.

2
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 2: I want to give you an update tonight on the

3
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 2: war in Iran, and the update is very good. Now

4
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,479
Speaker 2: I want all of my friends out there and rest easy.

5
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: Over this war in Iran. I believe it's going better

6
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,959
Speaker 2: than expected. Now here's what I do understand. I understand

7
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 2: that there is a divide between say the over fifty crowd,

8
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 2: people like me that are all for this war, that

9
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 2: love the idea of the military exercising its military right.

10
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 2: It goes back to kind of Reaganesque days. But under

11
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 2: fifty and under forty, I understand there's young people that

12
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: don't like the idea of us going into itron. What

13
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 2: I'm here to tell all of you, if you fall

14
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: into that category is just pause yourself for a moment,

15
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 2: give it a little rest, and you will see that

16
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 2: everything is going to work out just fine. That I

17
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 2: promise you. This is President Trump today.

18
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: Right now. They've lost their navy, they've lost their air force,

19
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 3: they have no anti aircraft apparatus at all, they have

20
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 3: no radar, their leaders are gone, and we could do

21
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 3: a lot worse. Another We're leaving certain things that if

22
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: we take them out or we could take them out

23
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 3: by this afternoon, in fact, within an hour. They literally

24
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 3: would never be able to build that country back.

25
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: So that's the things that President Trump and his team

26
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 2: are being careful about. You don't want to destroy the

27
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: nation so bad that the good people of Iraq can't rebuild.

28
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: What you're trying to do is destroy everything the bad

29
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: people in a raw the regime is using to wage

30
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 2: war on America and beyond, and again it's going very well.

31
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: Now.

32
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 2: I have no reason to doubt President Trump's comments. One,

33
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 2: I have great trust in President Trump. I know the man.

34
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: He's not one to lie, unlike Joe Biden. If this

35
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 2: was the Biden administration, we couldn't trust anything coming out

36
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 2: of the White House, much less Pentagon or beyond. But

37
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 2: this is the Trump white House, It's the Trump Pentagon.

38
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: But for my younger friends, to rest you at ease,

39
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 2: I made some phone calls today and I talked to

40
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 2: mid level kernel levels inside the Pentagon, and they back

41
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 2: up everything the President is saying that the war is

42
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: going very well, that Iran is nearly devastated and it

43
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 2: won't be long until this is completely over. And so

44
00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 2: again we're getting confirmation from mid level commanders inside the Pentagon.

45
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: This is President Trump again, and we've won. Let me

46
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: tell you we've won.

47
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 3: You know, you'd never like to say too early you won.

48
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: We won the bet in the first hour.

49
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,399
Speaker 4: It was over.

50
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: All right.

51
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: So that's a big claim.

52
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: President Trump wouldn't make it, because we all remember George

53
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 2: Bush's mission accomplished claim. No president wants that on their hands.

54
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: But the last two nights have been the heaviest bombardment

55
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: we have offered up from the United States military in Iran.

56
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 2: And yet the syop of negativity that comes from the

57
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: mainstream media.

58
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: Is so out of control.

59
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: They are making claims that are not based in fact,

60
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: they are not based in reality, and quite frankly, they

61
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: are designed to scare you. And again, young people, listen

62
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 2: to this.

63
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 5: Now that we're having conversations about sin in US men

64
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 5: and women into a draft, I'm.

65
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 6: Well out there, check in on the suns in particular

66
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 6: in your life.

67
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: I'm hearing people worry about a draft.

68
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 5: Is leaving Americans with a lot of totally legitimate questions

69
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 5: like are we going to have a draft?

70
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: A draft? How dumb are these people? The reality is,

71
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 2: I don't think they're dumb. I think they're devious, and

72
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 2: what they're trying to do is scare their base into

73
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: thinking somehow sons and daughters will be scooped up to

74
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 2: go fight in I run, this is not going to happen.

75
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 2: So besides my discussions with Pentagon officials, I had discussions

76
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: this morning with senior officials inside the White House, and

77
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 2: every single one of them told me they have never

78
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 2: heard President Trump once mention a draft. They have not

79
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 2: heard anyone inside the White House mentioned the possibility of

80
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: a draft. Now, why we have a military that is

81
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,119
Speaker 2: two million people strong, It is an all volunteer army,

82
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 2: and by the way, recruitment is through the roof since

83
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 2: President Trump has taken over. Why would you need to

84
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 2: draft anybody? And by the way, the state of warfare

85
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 2: has changed, and it is rapidly changing due to technology.

86
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 2: The future of war is not, in my belief ever

87
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: going to need a draft in the United States of America.

88
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 2: These people know this, especially with the expanding use of

89
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 2: AI and technology we could have only dreamed of.

90
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: This is an admiral with Scentcom.

91
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 7: Listen first, our war fighters are leveraging a variety of

92
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 7: advanced AI tools. These systems help US sift through vast

93
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 7: amounts of data in seconds, so our leaders can cut

94
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 7: through the noise and make smarter decisions faster than the

95
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 7: enemy can react. Humans will always make final decisions on

96
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 7: what to shoot and what not to shoot, and when

97
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 7: to shoot. But advanced AI tools can turn processes that

98
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 7: used to take hours and sometimes even days into seconds.

99
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 2: You know, it's pretty amazing because AI has changed not

100
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 2: only our lives, but it's changed the face of the battlefield.

101
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 2: Now over five thousand targets have been hit, many with

102
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 2: the use of AI. You heard him talk about the

103
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 2: speed of decision making process now that it's down to

104
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 2: seconds of what targets to hit.

105
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: This is one reason why we are winning.

106
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 2: I want to bring in now former JAG officer Federal

107
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 2: criminal Defense Attorney Ron Chapman is with us. Ron, welcome

108
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 2: to the program.

109
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 8: Thanks for having me Ron.

110
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: Since you were in the service.

111
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: How his technology changed the face of warfare today, and

112
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 2: I imagine that technology is being used in Iraq as

113
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: we speak, in Iran as we speak.

114
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think fantastic segue here. So let's just break

115
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 8: it down for the audience how TAR targeting works. Back

116
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 8: when I was in Afghanistan. If somebody wanted to hit

117
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 8: a target, the first thing that they would do is

118
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 8: nominate it. So you got somebody out there in the

119
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 8: field of marine he spot something, he wants the aircraft

120
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 8: to take it out. That nomination process can take a

121
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 8: long time or it can happen very quickly. But then

122
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 8: the commanders, the lawyers, everybody gets together and that target

123
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 8: package goes up the chain of command and the general

124
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 8: colonel whoever happens to be the stop on the chain

125
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 8: of command that is at the approval level for that package,

126
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 8: they then authorized the strike. Now you just said earlier

127
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 8: five thousand targets have been hit. There is absolutely no

128
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 8: way that in the span of time that took you

129
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 8: would have five thousand nomination packages successfully put up the

130
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 8: chain of command if people were doing it, which is

131
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 8: where we get to the AI debate. Anthropic, the AI

132
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 8: source that was used for a lot of these targets,

133
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 8: has had a recent spat with the Department of War

134
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 8: over that nomination process and who is in the loop

135
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 8: and what decisions they're making, and there's been some very

136
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 8: troubling information that's come out as a result.

137
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 2: So to review for people at home, Anthropic, the AI company.

138
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: They're saying, hey, we don't.

139
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 2: Want our AI used in autonomous weapons systems, and the

140
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 2: United States says we're gonna use AI however we want

141
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 2: to as long as it's within the bounds of the law. Now,

142
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 2: a lawsuit ensues, and that's unfolding. So you just mentioned

143
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 2: that there are some troubling things at play that have

144
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 2: come out.

145
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 1: Can you fill us in on them?

146
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 5: Yeah?

147
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 8: Yeah, So honestly, if you look at the reporting related

148
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 8: to Anthropic and the Department of War, I think both

149
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 8: of them have been somewhat incorrect about the level of

150
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 8: the dispute here. First things, first, Anthropics demand was twofold. First,

151
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 8: we don't want mass domestic surveillance happening. And second, if

152
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 8: there is a target that's struck, we want to be

153
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 8: able to object for whatever ethical reasons we have.

154
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: Now.

155
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 8: Rightly, so, the Department of War says, if we use

156
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 8: your technology, we make the decisions, and I somewhat agree

157
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 8: with that. Right if we use the technology, if Anthropics

158
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 8: giving it to us, we don't want some Anthropic employees

159
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 8: saying what targets we can hit? I got to give

160
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 8: it to them. There, But there's this other part, the

161
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 8: human and the loop part. The Department of War sought

162
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 8: authorization to engage targets without having a specific human sign

163
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 8: off on those targets. That gets us to a worst

164
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 8: case scenario when it comes to war. You could have

165
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 8: a situation where one side triggers the loop of the

166
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 8: United States in order to get these bots to fire

167
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 8: on certain targets, and that causes an immediate reaction from

168
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 8: let's say China or some other entity, where we then

169
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 8: have all out global war because we both triggered our

170
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 8: bots and there was no human in the loop to

171
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 8: stop it. That's what anthropic is saying, we don't want

172
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 8: to happen, and that's really where the debate is. Right now.

173
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 8: We have to trust, right.

174
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 2: Warn Hold one second, Hold on one second, because I

175
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 2: just want to interrupt here. I actually believe that the Pentagon,

176
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 2: under the direction of Secretary of War Hageseth, would not

177
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 2: allow a bunch of robots to put us at war

178
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 2: with China. And this gets back to the age old argument,

179
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 2: which is better humans or robots.

180
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: And by and large, my.

181
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 2: Audience may be upset to hear this, but by and large,

182
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 2: robots are far better than humans at many things. Like this.

183
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you right now, an Uber driver

184
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 2: that's a driverless car by Waimo probably is going to

185
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,839
Speaker 2: get in less accidents than the human Uber driver is. Now.

186
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 2: I know people don't want to hear that, but I

187
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 2: think Anthropic use this argument you're making to sway some

188
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: other things because it seems to me to be a

189
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 2: very woke company, and some of that woke ideology is

190
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 2: trying to be infected into the Pentagon. They use your

191
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 2: argument because, believe me, it is a you know, it's

192
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,239
Speaker 2: a valid argument, and everyone can see this argument as AI.

193
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: Is playing out. But I think we have the balance here.

194
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 2: What's the real reality of that happening or Anthropic trying

195
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 2: to play us as they fight with the Pentagon.

196
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 8: You know, listen, I read through the lawsuit and I

197
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 8: researched very hard to figure out exactly what the truth

198
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,719
Speaker 8: was there. And here's where it lies. The Pentagon has

199
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 8: not removed a human from the loop. And I think

200
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 8: you're absolutely right about Hegsath. It's not what he wants.

201
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 8: But here's the thing. There's an arms race going on

202
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 8: right now, and the entity that decides to put the

203
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 8: robots in the driver's seat is going to be the

204
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 8: army or military that has the ability to respond quickest,

205
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 8: which means we have an arms race where we may

206
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 8: be pushed to do things we don't want to. But

207
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 8: the question isn't whether or not there's a human in

208
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,439
Speaker 8: the loop. The question is at what stage is the

209
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 8: human in the loop and do they have enough information

210
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 8: to effectively stop a bad decision from happening before it happens.

211
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 8: Five thousand targets need to be analyzed. There's no way

212
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 8: a real human as a sessing every single one of those.

213
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 8: They may be lumping some of these targets together. There

214
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 8: may be assumptions that are made based on the logic

215
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 8: of robots. It's like submitting a term paper without fully

216
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 8: checking the citations to ensure they're accurate. That's the problem

217
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 8: that we have with AI and warfare right now.

218
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 2: Look, these are legitimate concerns, and the exact conversation that

219
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 2: you and I are having ron is I would hope

220
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 2: the same conversation that they're having inside the Pentagon because

221
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 2: we don't want to lose control of our army to

222
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 2: a bunch of AI bots.

223
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: That would be the worst thing that could happen.

224
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 2: But we have to utilize it as much as possible

225
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: so we're not getting beat by enemies who are but boy,

226
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 2: we are moving into treacherous territory when it comes to

227
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: all this stuff. Yeah, fascinating and also you know, may

228
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 2: be helpful in the end as well. Ron Chapman, great stuff.

229
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 2: I appreciate you coming on tonight.

230
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 4: Thanks for having me appreciate it.

231
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: Absolutely interesting, interesting topic. Real quick. I do want to

232
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 2: say that we're three ships in the Straits of horr

233
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 2: Moves that were hit with either drones or missiles. That

234
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 2: is a problem that's going to make people very uneasy

235
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: about moving international supply through the Straits of Horror Moves.

236
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 2: President Trump says we're getting ready to have the United

237
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 2: States Navy step in.

238
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:17,959
Speaker 1: Uh.

239
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 2: Jack Keene, analyst former general for Fox, says, we're not

240
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 2: quite there yet.

241
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 9: The Commander of Central Command has got has it as

242
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 9: a task, and he's deliberately working to eliminate the potential

243
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 9: of those offensive weapons interfering with escort operations in the

244
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 9: straits of a Move. We're likely not going to begin

245
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 9: that task of escorting tankers through until that threat is removed.

246
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 9: But I think about the same time, the WOL will

247
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 9: be ending in any event.

248
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 2: So it sounds to me like we'll get to that

249
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 2: point very quickly. President Trump says they've taken out something

250
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 2: like twenty somethingter mine laying boats.

251
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: That is huge.

252
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 2: And as the days go on, Iran's ability to take

253
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 2: out some of these ships in these shipping lanes commercial

254
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,839
Speaker 2: freighters is going to be limited. That's when the Navy

255
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 2: steps in and we will get back to normal. Now,

256
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 2: the threat from Iran is very real. I call it

257
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: from sleeper cells. We just saw another attack on a

258
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 2: US embassy in Norway.

259
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: In Oslo.

260
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 2: Three brothers had been arrested for setting off a bomb

261
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 2: outside the embassy. Thankfully nobody was injured there. Now, this

262
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 2: comes after the improvised explosive device attack in New York

263
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 2: City where two men through these ied makeshift bombs at

264
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 2: anti Muslim protesters. But again, the media doesn't want you

265
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 2: to believe that they would go after anti Muslim protesters.

266
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 2: They somehow want you to believe that Mayor was targeted

267
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 2: when he was not. Not only was he not even

268
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 2: in Gracie Mansion, but he wasn't anywhere near Gracie Mansion.

269
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: This is Abby Phillips on CNN.

270
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 6: Two Republicans say Muslims don't belong here after an attempted

271
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 6: terror attack against New York's Mayor zor On Mamdanni, and

272
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 6: the House Speaker Mike Johnson says nothing really to condemn

273
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 6: those comments.

274
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 2: After an attack against Mom Donnie wasn't at all. That's

275
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 2: a flat out fabrication.

276
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 9: Lie.

277
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 2: She claims that she's sorry and it was a mistake,

278
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 2: But I don't believe it was a mistake. I don't

279
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: believe it was by accident because on the same network

280
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 2: you had Anna Navarro speeling the same kind of falsities.

281
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 7: Some of these comments are as a result of the

282
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 7: attempt against I guess Mayor Mandanni in New York.

283
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 4: Who was raised Muslim?

284
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 10: Was he not himself? So they're being anti Muslim.

285
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,119
Speaker 1: Attack against Mayor Mandanni.

286
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 2: They threw the bombs at the anti Muslim protesters across

287
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 2: the street.

288
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: Come on, now, think about this and that attack. Brave

289
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: New York City police officers.

290
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 2: Chase down the attackers, tackle them to the ground, get

291
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 2: them into custody. And maybe even more brave are the

292
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 2: police officers that run towards these makeshift bombs and gets

293
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 2: everybody away from them when they don't know.

294
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: They could explode in any moment.

295
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 2: And instead of Mom Danni inviting them for a heroic ceremony,

296
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 2: he invites look at this picture, but Mood Khalil, you

297
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 2: may remember this clown. This is the guy who's a

298
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 2: pro palaced in pro Hamas, pro terrorist activist here in

299
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 2: the Nia States. It's spout in his mouth off about

300
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: how much he hates the Jews and how much he

301
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 2: loves everything that Hamas.

302
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: Is doing killing them.

303
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: He gets invited to dinner at Gracie Mansion after this attack,

304
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 2: not the cops that was not left on James Gagliano,

305
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 2: former FBI agent.

306
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 11: Yeah, and the other night, instead of hosting the two

307
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 11: star police chief who leaped over the barricades and ran

308
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 11: this guy down who had thrown the bomb, the mayor

309
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 11: decides that Gracie Mansion to host Mood Khalil. I mean,

310
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 11: he's senting such an awful, awful message here to the

311
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 11: rank and file.

312
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 2: Reality is Joe Biden put us in this position with

313
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 2: his open border policies. We have no idea how many

314
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 2: of these people may actually be in this country. James Langford,

315
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 2: the Senator from Oklahoma.

316
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 12: The Trump administration has arrested and deported almost fifty thousand

317
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,879
Speaker 12: of those seventy thousand, But we saw twenty thousand people

318
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 12: that even the Biden administration when they crossed the border

319
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,719
Speaker 12: said they may be cherished, they may not be. They

320
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 12: come from one of those areas, but we just have

321
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 12: no information. But they just let them in.

322
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 2: Anyway. It takes one to kill dozens, if not hundreds,

323
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 2: of Americans one, and there's tens of thousands of them here.

324
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 2: I want to bring in now to discuss this. Founder

325
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 2: and president of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association,

326
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 2: Sheriff Richard Mack, is back with us. Sheriff, great to

327
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 2: have you back on the program.

328
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 13: Thank Grant. It's great to be on the Stingefield Show.

329
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: Appreciate being back with you. Well, it's good to see you, Sheriff.

330
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: Let me start from the beginning.

331
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,719
Speaker 2: First off, your response that Mayor Mom Donnie in New

332
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 2: York doesn't celebrate the heroic police officers in that attack,

333
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 2: but instead he invites in a terrorist sympathizer at best.

334
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 13: Well, I guess that's what New York gets for electing

335
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 13: a communist completely contrary to our constitution and our American

336
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 13: constitutional Republic. I think that Mondani has shown in just

337
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 13: the first few weeks of being in office that everything

338
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 13: we feared about him is going to happen, and is

339
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 13: happening under his leadership or lack thereof. And he's pretty scary.

340
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 13: And I love New York and I would love to

341
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 13: go back to New York, but he's making me worry

342
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 13: about going back, and I don't know if I would

343
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:35,920
Speaker 13: dare take my grandkids back to Broadway while he's there

344
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 13: pissing off all the police and having no idea what

345
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 13: he's supposed to be doing as mayor sheriff.

346
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 2: I think an even bigger question is not whether you

347
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 2: would go back to New York City.

348
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: And I'm with you.

349
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 2: I think it's a disaster, and I grew up in

350
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 2: and around New York City. But the question is would

351
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 2: you recommend a police officer go serve for the New

352
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 2: York City Police Department. I think there are more danger

353
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 2: from an Alvin Bragg than they are from some gang

354
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 2: banger in the South Bronx.

355
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 13: We're absolutely correct. I mean it gets worse as you

356
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 13: go from the mayor to the county attorney, and that

357
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 13: makes it all the scarier. The men and women are

358
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 13: New York PD do not have confidence in the county attorney,

359
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 13: and they don't have it in the mayor. And hundreds

360
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 13: of them, if not thousands, have left to go to

361
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 13: Florida and other places where states and governors and mayors

362
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,399
Speaker 13: and the people respect and love the police and have

363
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 13: their backs.

364
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 2: Sure, real quick, I want to talk about the possibility

365
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 2: of sleeper cells, because I know this is a topic

366
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 2: that you've been sounding the alarm on. Haakeem Jeffries, the

367
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 2: minority leader in the House of Representatives, says, this is

368
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 2: no big deal.

369
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,199
Speaker 1: I want you to listen to this.

370
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 2: With the DHS shutdown, keeping Americans safe roll cut seventeen,

371
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 2: So the President saying that Americans are being endangered because

372
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 2: the Department of Homeland Security cannot go after Iranian sleeper cells.

373
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 2: What's your response to.

374
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 5: That, Well, the president's lying to the American people.

375
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: He's fear mongering, and he knows that.

376
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 2: Is the president fear mongering. Sheriff mac.

377
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 13: It would take anybody with half a brain would know

378
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 13: if you open the borders, who's going to come in?

379
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 13: Who's going to come in? And indeed, the cartels have

380
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 13: collaborated with and joined with the cartels in making sure

381
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 13: that they could come into Mexico and then come into

382
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 13: the United States. We know they've come here. The training

383
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 13: all over the world that our sheriffs and police are

384
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 13: attending shows that they are here. Tens of thousands may

385
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 13: I would the training I've seen. There's over one hundred

386
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 13: thousand terrorists in our country from the Middle East that

387
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 13: have infil traded our country. The threat, the biggest threat,

388
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 13: is not that they're going to start shooting us, but

389
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 13: that they're going to attack our grid, our water supply,

390
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 13: our internet, and our communications. And that is coming. And

391
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 13: we need all of the people in this country to

392
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,439
Speaker 13: contact their sheriff's offices and make sure they up the

393
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 13: patrols and security for power plants every place, every county,

394
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 13: every place.

395
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:29,239
Speaker 2: That we have.

396
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 13: They need protection and double or triple the patrols by

397
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 13: our power plants nationwide.

398
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 1: They sure do, Sheriff.

399
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 2: We've been selling the alarm on the power grid for

400
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 2: a long time about how vulnerable it is, not just

401
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 2: from a traditional attack like that, but also from cyber attacks.

402
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 2: We've got Chinese equipment and many of these power plant facilities.

403
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 2: It's a disaster. Sheriff Richard Mack. Always great to see you.

404
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 2: Thank you for coming on. I'm going to tell people

405
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 2: how they can find your website at cs POA dot org.

406
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 1: Appreciate you coming on the program. All right, folks.

407
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 2: Coming up next, we're going to talk a little bit

408
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 2: about some hostages that are being held overseas. But before

409
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 2: we do that, America is focused on strengthening domestic energy

410
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 2: production and securing reliable resources for the future. One company

411
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 2: working in that direction is Lost Soldier Oil and Gas.

412
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 2: After decades of geological research and land assembly, Lost Soldier

413
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 2: has developed a large natural gas project spanning approximately forty

414
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 2: thousand acres in Wyoming's Rocky Mountain region. Independent and engineering

415
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 2: evaluations estimate the property contains significant natural gas resources, positioning

416
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 2: it as a meaningful domestic energy opportunity. Lost Soldiers development

417
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 2: plan includes a multi well drilling program designed to responsibly

418
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 2: increased production over time using proven technologies. Growing demand from

419
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 2: industries such as power, general manufacturing, and emerging data infrastructure

420
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 2: continues to drive the need for reliable, cleaner burning natural gas.

421
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 2: The company is led by an experienced management team with

422
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 2: a long history of energy development and public markets. To

427
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 2: American citizen was kidnapped by the Taliban, and the Trump

428
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 2: administration is working to set him free. We will talk

429
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 2: to his brother next and that hostage is not alone

430
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 2: in Afghanistan. Welcome back to everyone. You know, it is

431
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 2: very disturbing to me that across this globe we have

432
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 2: many Americans being held hostile by ill actors, and I

433
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 2: mean countries that really are our enemies. Marco Rubio talked

434
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 2: about this this week.

435
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 14: So let me just say today we honor those who

436
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,199
Speaker 14: are still waiting. It celebrates those who returned, and it

437
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 14: remembers those whose homecoming came sadly and tragically in a

438
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 14: different way. But our mission, even as we remember to

439
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 14: honor those from the past, we our mission is forward looking.

440
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 14: We believe in homecomings, We work for homecomings, and under

441
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 14: the President's leadership, we will not stop until every single

442
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 14: unjustly detained American is brought home.

443
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 2: All right. The State Department has now called out Afghanistan

444
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 2: for this, specifically labeling them as a nation that holds

445
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 2: American hostages. I want you to look at this gentleman,

446
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 2: Dennis Coyle. Dennis Coyle was an academic who is being

447
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 2: held in Afghanistan. He's been visited by Katari, so we

448
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 2: know he is alive. Another am we're not so sure

449
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 2: of his fate in Afghanistan. That would be Paul Overbe,

450
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 2: a journalist who was believed to have interviewed the leader

451
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 2: of the Hakani terrorist network in Afghanistan. There is thoughts

452
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 2: that they killed him and he is not alive. There's

453
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 2: another gentleman by the name of Paul Jackson, not sure

454
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 2: of his situation there. Details are sketching. And the last

455
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 2: I want to tell you about is Mahmoud uh Mahmoud Habibi.

456
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 2: Mahmoud Habibi was a translator for the United States during

457
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 2: the Afghan War. He went on to lead civil aviation

458
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 2: for the United States, ultimately getting his American citizenship because

459
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 2: of how much he helped Americans there. Well, apparently when

460
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 2: we killed am and Azwahari, a brutal terrorist who deserved

461
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 2: to die, the Taliban went in and scooped up Mahmoud

462
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 2: Habibi and they are not admitting they have him, and

463
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 2: we don't know where he is. Well with me now

464
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 2: to discuss this is the brother of Mahmud Habibi, who

465
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 2: was taken hostage by the Taliban. As I mentioned, Ahmed Habibi,

466
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 2: who was also very helpful to American forces in Afghanistan,

467
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,959
Speaker 2: is with us. I'm ed welcome to the program.

468
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 4: Thank you Grant for having me.

469
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 2: Sir, you know, I'm sorry about what's happening with your brother.

470
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: What can you tell us?

471
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 2: Is there any indications of where he might be, if

472
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 2: he's alive, has anyone seen him?

473
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 10: Of course, we are sure that he's alive, and the

474
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 10: Talibans are holding him still. He's been more than tree

475
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 10: and a half years that since he was taken. He

476
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 10: was taken by the GDI they are the intelligence department

477
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 10: of the Taliban in August of twenty twenty two, and

478
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 10: since then they're holding them my brother like it's been

479
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 10: three and a half years. But they did not allow

480
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 10: us to talk to him. They did not allow was

481
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 10: to meet him, and they are not acknowledging that they

482
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 10: have him, even though there are overwhelming proofs that the

483
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 10: US government has that they have him, and there are

484
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 10: witness testimonies from the US, like the US government has

485
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 10: them that that that proves that the Tally Bands have him,

486
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 10: but they keep denying that they.

487
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 2: Have in all right, the Trump administration, I know, takes

488
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,959
Speaker 2: us very seriously. I'm very good friends with Sebastian Gorka.

489
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 2: We work together on many levels. I know you just

490
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 2: met him. He is in the Trump White House specifically

491
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 2: overseeing a lot of this when it comes to American hostages.

492
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 2: Do you feel like you're getting some action from the

493
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 2: Trump administration comparatively speaking to the Bided administration?

494
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 10: Amed, Yes, Trump administration is great. Doctor Gorka is a

495
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 10: very good person. I met him two days ago and

496
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 10: he's doing everything to bring my brother home. He's a

497
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 10: nice person and I have faith on him and on

498
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 10: Trump's administration. Spe Hi is also working on my brother's case,

499
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 10: and they're very good people. They are doing everything to

500
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 10: bring my brother home. Unlike Biden's administration, they were very

501
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 10: soft on the Taliban like in the previous administration. We

502
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 10: keep telling them that they need to press the Taliban

503
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 10: to have them admit it, admit that they have my brother. However,

504
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 10: they did not listen to us, and they did not

505
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 10: press them enough so they could acknowledge my brother, even

506
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 10: though they had evidences that they took my brother, and

507
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 10: they had technical data. They had witness testimonies too, but

508
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 10: they did not use them to press the Taliban. But

509
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 10: Trump administration they are good. They're using sticks, and we

510
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 10: think that that's helping and at some point the Taliban

511
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 10: will acknowledge my brother and they will eventually release him.

512
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 2: All right, I'm at clearly you and your brother love America.

513
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 2: You were so helpful to American forces when we were

514
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 2: in Afghanistan. You both become America citizens. He stays behind

515
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 2: to lead up civil aviation in Afghanistan. Was he not

516
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 2: concerned that once the Taliban knew that he was a

517
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 2: translator and he had worked for American forces there, that

518
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 2: he would be a target to be scooped up.

519
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 10: When he was taken when the Taliban regin came to Afghanistan,

520
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 10: he was working for a private company called arx or

521
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 10: ACG in Afghanistan, so he was working at the aviation sector.

522
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 9: Well.

523
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 4: When the Taliban announced that they have nothing to do

524
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 4: with the people who supported the US.

525
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 10: Government or who worked with the US government, or who

526
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 10: worked for the Aghan Gorman, we have nothing to do

527
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 10: with them, and they are safe in Afghanistan. So unfortunately

528
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 10: he trusted them, and then he just stayed there and

529
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 10: tried to work there. So he was going back and forth.

530
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 10: He was coming to the US and going to Afghanistan.

531
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 10: But unfortunately he was taken after one year when the

532
00:30:58,720 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 10: Taliban came.

533
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: So the government clearly the Taliban can't be trusted. They're

534
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 2: still bad actors in the region. Ahmed, you know, and

535
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 2: I'm told America still is giving millions, if not billions

536
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 2: of dollars to Afghanistan controlled by the Taliban right now.

537
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 2: That has to be tremendously frustrating.

538
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 10: Of course, Well, the CIA is not doing the right thing.

539
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 10: We have they have giving them the Taliban like forty

540
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 10: million dollars every week, and they're supporting the same they're

541
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 10: giving the same agency who took my brother, the GDI.

542
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 10: They are the intelligence of the Taliban. So the CIA,

543
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 10: they could use that money that they give to the Taliban,

544
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 10: they could use that as a leverage and they could

545
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 10: just ask them to release my brother if they If

546
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 10: the CIA would try, my brother would.

547
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 4: Be home today.

548
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 10: So but unfortunately they did not, And and the money

549
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 10: that they've been giving to the Taliban. I don't know

550
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 10: why they're still funding them when they are keeping the

551
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 10: American hostages with them.

552
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 2: Well, that would be something I would be pushing for,

553
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 2: and I will push for it on a big level,

554
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 2: is to cut funding and especially use that as a

555
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 2: bargaining tool to get your brother back.

556
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: Lastly, i'm ed Habibi.

557
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 2: What is the message that you would want the Trump

558
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 2: administration to hear else, I'll specifically say President Trump and

559
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 2: Marco Rubio are Secretary of State. If they're listening to

560
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 2: you today, your message to them.

561
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 10: Well, I have faith on Pedident Trump, Mac Rubio and

562
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 10: doctor Gorka and the whole SPHA team. So they're doing

563
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 10: the right thing and I wish them a success in

564
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 10: bringing all the Americans, my brother and all Americans home.

565
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 2: Well, I'm ed on behalf of me and Stinfield's army.

566
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 2: I appreciate the work that you did for America and

567
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 2: doing your best to keep American soldiers safe over there.

568
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 2: Same goes for your brother and godspeed and getting him home.

569
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 2: Please keep us posted. If there's anything we can do

570
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 2: to help you, let us know about it.

571
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 4: Of course, thanks to Grant for having me here.

572
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 2: Ye absolutely I'm at Abibi, thank you so much for

573
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 2: coming on. And look, folks, this is not just Afghanistan.

574
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 2: This is all across this globe. We have Americans who

575
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 2: are being held hostage and nobody's talking about them. And

576
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 2: again I tell you, we got them out of Venezuela.

577
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 2: We're gonna keep fighting everywhere we can, everywhere we go

578
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 2: to get Americans home. All right, after Ken Paxton, the

579
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 2: Attorney General in Texas, forced his hand, Senator in Texas

580
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,479
Speaker 2: John Cornyn, who is running against Cornan, is now talking

581
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 2: tough on the Save America Act.

582
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,760

604
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 15: presented by Birch Gold Group and Patriot Mobile.

605
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:48,240
Speaker 1: Welcome back everyone.

606
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,919
Speaker 2: So I'm doing everything in my respectful power to keep

607
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 2: President Trump from endorsing John Cornyn, and he hasn't done

608
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 2: it yet, so I think the push is working here.

609
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 2: Look at what John Horning tweeted out today. This is

610
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 2: a quote in the New York Post. I support whatever

611
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 2: changes to Senate rules that may prove necessary for us

612
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 2: to get the Save America Act and Homeland Security funding

613
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:16,919
Speaker 2: past the Democrats' obstruction. This could be a talking filibuster.

614
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,920
Speaker 2: So he supports this now because all the while he

615
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 2: didn't support it. But you know, this is all about politics.

616
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 2: And then Ken Paxton forced him into this position while

617
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 2: NBC asked him about it.

618
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 6: Obviously said that new king, the Philibuster, would be taking

619
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 6: a wrecking ball to Senate rules.

620
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 4: Is that no longer true?

621
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 1: I said I'd be open to reforms.

622
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 6: What would you say to those who say you just

623
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 6: changed your mind to win the president's.

624
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 2: Endorsement, So that's not true. You also said that it's

625
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 2: I go away, thank you. It's the worst way to

626
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 2: react to questions. Those are legitimate questions that voters want

627
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 2: to know, and you hold up your hand to the

628
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,839
Speaker 2: camera and say go away like you're a little fly

629
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 2: annoying me. That is the arrogance of the establishment that

630
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,800
Speaker 2: I cannot stand. It's the first time I saw that clip,

631
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,720
Speaker 2: and it makes me even angry. And then I already

632
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 2: am about all of this.

633
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: I want to bring in now.

634
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 2: The publisher for Texas Scorecard, Michael quinn Sullivan, is with

635
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 2: us MQS.

636
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,439
Speaker 5: Welcome back, Hey, Greg, great to be with you, my friend.

637
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,359
Speaker 2: Does that make you just as mad as I am

638
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,799
Speaker 2: holding up his hand go away from my goal? Away?

639
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 9: Yeah?

640
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 5: You know, it'd be one thing if this were an

641
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 5: antagonistic reporter playing the little gotcha game. Look, the young

642
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 5: lady sounded very respectful. She's asking very clear questions, questions

643
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 5: that a lot of us have for years. John Cornyn, Look,

644
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 5: you can agree disagree, but the fact is he has

645
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 5: opposed these kinds of reforms to the filibuster. The fact

646
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 5: that he is now, at this moment, taking a different

647
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:03,760
Speaker 5: position should bear some conversation. Look, I'm all for people

648
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 5: changing their minds. Coming over to my position, I'm all

649
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 5: for people admitting that in the past they were wrong

650
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 5: and now they want to be right.

651
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 1: That's great.

652
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 5: We love giving people second chances. But I think that

653
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 5: when you're an election season, particularly a tightly contested election season,

654
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 5: the voters deserve to know what's motivating this change. Is

655
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 5: this a permanent change? Ords it only a change of convenience?

656
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 3: You know?

657
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 2: I think he's so mad angry at not really just

658
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,399
Speaker 2: Ken Packson. I'm sure he's mad at Packson. I think

659
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 2: he's so mad at the voters. He has such a

660
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 2: disdain for grassroots Texans. How dare they vote against this

661
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 2: guy who's been made the king a long time ago

662
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 2: and he's pissed about it?

663
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 5: Michael, Look, I mean he is still stinging from I

664
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 5: guess it's now four or five years ago when there

665
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 5: was twenty minutes of sustained boo from the fifteen thousand

666
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 5: delegates to the Republican State Convention when he came up.

667
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 5: That was after he had made some deals with Democrats

668
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 5: on red flag laws. Look again, you can have an

669
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 5: honest debate about these issues, but you do have to

670
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 5: be prepared for what your voters have to say about.

671
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 5: And the voters didn't like it. Look again, I'm all

672
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 5: for politicians going from a bad position to a good position.

673
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 5: They do have to recognize that for the rest of us,

674
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 5: for the common people, we would just like to understand

675
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 5: their rationale. Because he made a strong point for a

676
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 5: long time about opposing changes to the filibuster, sometimes persuasively

677
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 5: to folks. Now that he's taking a different position, he

678
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 5: should be willing to defend it.

679
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 1: Yeah.

680
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 2: Well, the reason he's doing is because it's about self

681
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 2: interest over national interest, which is literally how he governs

682
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 2: his entire life. Self interest over national interest. Michael, I'm

683
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 2: going to ask to help me here. So we have

684
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 2: some older folks who watch this, many Texans, they fall

685
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 2: in corn and camp just because they've been there a

686
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,280
Speaker 2: long time. And Corny has been around, and they're maybe

687
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,799
Speaker 2: not as involved as you and me to see all

688
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 2: of the importance of this. Can you give your best

689
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,240
Speaker 2: argument as to why someone like that who just didn't

690
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 2: understand Cornin, why are we so upset about him of

691
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,360
Speaker 2: why they should give Ken Paxon a chance.

692
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 5: Look, you and I and everyone should set personalities to

693
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 5: the side as much as humanly possible. We need to

694
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 5: think of ourselves as being the hiring managers for a corporation.

695
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 5: We are on the Committee to save the Republic, and

696
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 5: our job is to hire men and women to do

697
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 5: the various jobs that will save the Republic, which means

698
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 5: every time we have a hiring season, every time that

699
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 5: we're looking at the candidates. We shouldn't simply do what

700
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:03,000
Speaker 5: we've all we's done, because maybe what we've always done

701
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 5: is why we're in the position we're in today. The

702
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,879
Speaker 5: worst thing that we can do is put on our

703
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,359
Speaker 5: team Paxton shirt, our team corn And shirt and say

704
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 5: never again shall I change shirts until God removes it

705
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,880
Speaker 5: from my body. That's not the system of government our

706
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 5: founding fathers gave us. Our founding fathers gave us a

707
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 5: system in which you and I and our thirty million

708
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:30,440
Speaker 5: fellow Texans take a look at these candidates with clear eyes.

709
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 5: We're not hiring our best friend. We're not promoting someone

710
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 5: who's going to be our pastor. We're not asking for

711
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 5: someone to walk our dog. No, we're hiring someone to

712
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 5: go to the United States Senate for a six year

713
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 5: term and do a very specific thing. And in that regard,

714
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,919
Speaker 5: we should all be willing to take a fresh look,

715
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 5: with fresh eyes at the candidates a force. Today is

716
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 5: a different day than it was in two thousand and

717
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 5: two when John Cornyn was first selected to the United

718
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 5: States Senate. You need to make sure if you're going

719
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 5: to vote for John Cornyn or you're going to vote

720
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 5: for Kim Packson, you need to make sure you're doing

721
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,240
Speaker 5: so not because you always have, but because you believe

722
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 5: that John Cornyn or Kim Paxson's going to be the

723
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 5: best person to save the republic.

724
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 2: Well, what great advice, Michael Quinn Sullivan Texas Scorecard. It's

725
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 2: always great having on the program. Thank you for that.

726
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 5: Thank you Grim.

727
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 2: You know, m QS just said something interesting. We're not

728
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 2: hiring our pastor. This is not an interview for who's

729
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 2: going to be your minister. It's about who's going to

730
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 2: be the best fighter to go up there in the

731
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 2: United States? Said it and fight for us. Okay, up next,

732
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 2: How is Operation Epic Fury affecting the price of gold?

733
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 2: We will talk about that next. Get an update on

734
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 2: where the price of gold is. Because gold is a

735
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 2: great barometer of everything going on in the world, and

736
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 2: we have a lot going on the world. I want

737
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,959
Speaker 2: to bring in now, precious metal specialist for Birch Gold.

738
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,239
Speaker 1: Philip Patrick is with us. Philip, welcome back.

739
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: All right, Philip, what is your assessment over the last

740
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 2: couple weeks since we last talked.

741
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 1: Now, with everything going.

742
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 16: On and Iran listen, it's things are getting hectic. We

743
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 16: see oil prices obviously skyrocket. We hit briefly one hundred

744
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 16: dollars a barrel over the weekend, back down to ninety

745
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 16: dollars a barrel today, so heading in the right direction.

746
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 16: But we have to remember a couple of weeks ago

747
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 16: sixty dollars a barrel, so we're up fifty percent from

748
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 16: where we were a few weeks ago. I think the

749
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,359
Speaker 16: key thing here is how drawn out this is going

750
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 16: to be any extended action in the Middle East. I

751
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 16: think will drive oil prices up longer term. And we

752
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 16: have to remember, you know, oil is the most inflationary commodity.

753
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 16: It's not just what you fill your car up with.

754
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 16: It's used in transportation, manufacturing, and ultimately everyday good. So

755
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 16: if we cannot get a hand on higher oil prices,

756
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,320
Speaker 16: it's going to fuel inflation and cause problems domestically.

757
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,400
Speaker 2: All right, And that would then be a safe haven

758
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,720
Speaker 2: to put your money, would be to put it back

759
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 2: into gold. I say cash is trash and gold really

760
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,320
Speaker 2: is the place to be Phillip.

761
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 16: Yeah, and cash is trash is absolutely correct. I mean,

762
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 16: anybody sitting in sort of fixed interest rate products in

763
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 16: any currency in this climate broadly is losing to inflation.

764
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 16: We've been talking for a while about the fundamental supporting gold.

765
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 16: It's d dollarization, it's inflation, it's global instability. The more

766
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 16: instability we see, the more it plays into to gold prices.

767
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 16: So we're seeing movement. Gold's around fifty one fifty, silver's

768
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 16: around eighty five dollars. Investment banks and out rapidly raising predictions.

769
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 16: Goldman Sachs I think say sixty three hundred for gold

770
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 16: prices by the end of the year. So I'm telling people,

771
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 16: don't look at the price of gold, look at what's

772
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 16: driving its price. And the fundamentals today are stronger than ever.

773
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 2: All right, let me tell people how they can get

774
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 2: with you and your folks over at Birch Gold. Philip Patrick,

775
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 2: always great having you on. Just text America to the number.

779
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,879
Speaker 2: President Trump is just about to get on Air Force one.

780
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:43,960
Speaker 2: We will go out to him. That's next commercial Hello.

781
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: E level that nobody's seen before.

782
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 3: It's pretty it's pretty amazing to us.

783
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 15: Give us as a timeline on when you're planning to

784
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 15: tap the.

785
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,839
Speaker 14: Strategic petroleum reserve, a timeline of when that could happen.

786
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 3: You're to be doing it very quickly, and then we'll

787
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 3: fill it up. We'll fill up our reserves, you know,

788
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 3: if you remember I filled them up, and then I

789
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 3: had a deal to go at the highest level, a

790
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 3: level that's never been and Schumer the Democrats for twenty

791
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 3: five dollars and it was turned down. You remember that, Peter,

792
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 3: almost before.

793
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 15: Your time, but not quite, but it was.

794
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 3: We had a deal at twenty five dollars. Think of that,

795
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:27,319
Speaker 3: twenty five dollars a barrel, and the Democrats.

796
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:27,239
Speaker 5: Turned it down.

797
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,759
Speaker 3: We're gonna fill it, We're gonna tap it out like

798
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 3: it's never been. But they turned that down, and now

799
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 3: it's a lot higher.

800
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 14: Considering hot on the US Treasury Department by oil features

801
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 14: as a means to keep the oil prices down, we're

802
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 14: gonna be in.

803
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:44,360
Speaker 9: Very good shape.

804
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 3: You see it to what's happening, they are pretty much

805
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:49,879
Speaker 3: at the end of the line. Doesn't mean we're gonna

806
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 3: end it immediately, but they are. They've got no navy,

807
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 3: they've got no air force, they've got no anti air

808
00:45:56,440 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 3: traffic anything. They have no systems of control. We're just

809
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 3: riding free range over that country. And now we're going

810
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 3: to look very strongly at the Straits. The Straits are

811
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 3: in great shape. We've knocked out all of their boats.

812
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 3: They have some missiles, but not very many. I think

813
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 3: we're in very good We're in very good shape.

814
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,400
Speaker 17: The main thing is we have to win this. They

815
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 17: win it quickly, but win it. And there are many

816
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:26,359
Speaker 17: people I'm just watching some of the news. Most people

817
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 17: say it's already been won. It's just a question of

818
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 17: when when do we stop. We don't want to let

819
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 17: it regrow, and ideally would like to see somebody in

820
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 17: there that knows what they're doing. In other words, they

821
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 17: can build a country.

822
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 2: Now.

823
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 3: One other thing, we can hit sections of Turan and

824
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:47,840
Speaker 3: other places that if you do it, it'll be almost

825
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 3: impossible for them to rebuild their country, and we don't

826
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,319
Speaker 3: want that. But we can hit electric We could take

827
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 3: apart their electric capacity within one hour and it would

828
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 3: take damn twenty five years to rebuild it. So ideally

829
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,120
Speaker 3: we're not going to be doing that. Thank you very much,

830
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:06,480
