13
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,920

Speaker 1: it's always a balance, right, of course, take Thanksgiving off

17
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: because when I make sure that I'm completely present with

18
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: the family. Black Friday has always kind of been a holiday.

19
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: People go out shopping. They really start their Christmas shopping

20
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 1: for sure, and really today's a day to put up

21
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 1: a bunch of Christmas decorations. I know, believe me. I know.

22
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: Commander Melanie, my amazing wife. Boy, she was a rock

23
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: star yesterday is funny the girls and I you know,

24
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: she really is a rock star. She she's I told

25
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: Melanie last night. And this is not me trying to

26
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: get some cool points or whatever ingratiate myself to her,

27
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: but I told her this last night too, Like, I

28
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: am very lucky because I have an amazing wife who

29
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: she is an amazing cook, She cares a lot, loves

30
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: the family more than anything. She's unbelievably protective. She's willing

31
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: to go to bat for anybody in the family, go

32
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: to war for anybody in the family. I mean, she's beautiful,

33
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: she's smart, she's got great political instinct. And yesterday, you know,

34
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: it was our Thanksgiving and she was probably prepping five

35
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: or six different courses for the meal. I'm not even exaggerating.

36
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: She's got this big turkey and then she's she's got

37
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: this world class stuffing, and she loves stuffing, and every year,

38
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: stuffing is probably one of her favorite parts of Thanksgiving.

39
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: She cooks all these pies. She got this apple pie,

40
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: loves apple pie. Got cherry pies as well. She makes

41
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: this also world class mac and cheese, and you know, listen,

42
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: We've got lots to talk about tonight. We've got Brian

43
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: Dean right on deck. It's right night, so I'm not

44
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: gonna waste too much of her time with this. But

45
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: she makes the most amazing mac and cheese in the world.

46
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: And I have this rule of thumb battle crew, I

47
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,399
Speaker 1: just do. I am a very meat and potatoes kind

48
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: of guy. Anytime I order something, it's just plain with cheese.

49
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: The way I instruct the waitress or waiter at restaurants

50
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: on the occasions that we go out. Just imagine I'm

51
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: a two year old and I'm ordering something just like that,

52
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: so very much like that. And I judge all restaurants.

53
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's five star restaurant, but I

54
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: judge all restaurants on their quality of their mac and cheese.

55
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: And I am telling you just so you know. I

56
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: am a mac and cheese connoisseur. I love mac and cheese.

57
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: And here I'm just telling you, Commander Melanie makes some

58
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: of the best mac and cheese, probably the best mac

59
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: and cheese that I've ever had. And I know that

60
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: the kids will probably back me up on this as well.

61
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: Listen to me, folks, she's just that good and so okay.

62
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: So listen, don't forget to smash that like button, that

63
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: little green thumb beneath the video, don't forget about official

64
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: Seanparnell dot com, don't forget to follow me on locals. Uh, listen,

65
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: lot to talk about tonight. We're going to get to

66
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: lots of awesome stuff with Brian Dean Wright. But before

67
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: we get to Brian, the Associated Press had an article

68
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: out the other day, and it was interesting that it

69
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: was released the other day because they know that we're

70
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: going into Thanksgiving and so many people aren't going to

71
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: be paying attention. The Associated Press, by the way, is

72
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: not typically a publication that is friendly to conservatives at all.

73
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: In fact, they are a liberal rag. They are fake news.

74
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: But what makes the Associated Press so dangerous, particularly effective

75
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: fake news, is that all of their articles, if they're

76
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 1: published by the national Associated Press, all of their articles

77
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,679
Speaker 1: are then taken and placed in local newspapers all across

78
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 1: the country, So they have a real local type feel.

79
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: And you've got to read the fine print to see

80
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: if it's an Associated Press reporter who's writing it, and

81
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: make sure it's not a local reporter. But That's why

82
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: the Associated Press, I think could be dangerous fake news

83
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: because even though they're a national or global organization, they

84
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: give you a sense that everything that they publish is local, right,

85
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: and how it gives you And the reason why that's

86
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: important is that if you're running an election, their writing

87
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: is if they're local, it gives you a sense of

88
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: how people feel locally. But that's really not the case.

89
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: If it's written by the Associated Press or for the

90
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: Associated Press, chances are they have some global interest or

91
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: liberal interest behind everything that they write. That's just the truth.

92
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: So they had an article out the other day, and

93
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 1: I'm pointing this out to you because a lot of

94
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: what we're going to talk about tonight is the Democrat

95
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: globalist worldview is on the ropes in a very, very

96
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: big way. And the title of this episode is the

97
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: Great Reset is Collapsing. And the reason why I titled

98
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,679
Speaker 1: the episode that way is because I believe the Great

99
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: Reset is collapsing, and that's a great thing for patriots

100
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: all around the world, but especially here because in order

101
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: for the Great Reset to happen, and of course we

102
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: all know what the Great reset is, it's this anti capitalist,

103
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: anti American view very globalist view. They demonize free markets,

104
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: they embrace socialism and communism, and they advocate from more

105
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: control over your life. You'll live in the pod, you'll

106
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: eat the bugs, you'll be happy, type stuff, really dystopian

107
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: healthscape type stuff. Well listen, it's on the ropes in

108
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: a big way. And so this is why this Associated

109
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: Press article was very interesting to me because I think

110
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: the Democrats and the media know this. They see the

111
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: writing on the wall, and now they're questioning what to

112
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: do moving forward. And you can always see what the

113
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: Democrats are thinking, what their battle plan is, by reading

114
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: between the lines and some of these articles. So, of course,

115
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: the title in this Associated Press article Democrats in Pennsylvania

116
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: lost its nineteen presidential electoral votes, a US Senate seat,

117
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: three other statewide races, two congressional seats in what was

118
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:07,919
Speaker 1: once a reassuring advantage, and voter registration. The title of

119
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: the article itself is very simply, is Pennsylvania still a

120
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: swing state? Now? For those of you all who have

121
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: listened to the show for a very long time, you

122
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: know what I think about Pennsylvania. It's the ballgame. Okay,

123
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: back to Pennsylvania real quick. The Democrats are worried about Pennsylvania.

124
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: Why does Pennsylvania matter? Folks, you've been watching the og.

125
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: Members of the Battle Crew, many of you all who

126
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: have been in the live chat, are been a part

127
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: of this show for a very long time. Pennsylvania is

128
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: the ballgame for Democrats. The Democrats just got their asses

129
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: whipped in Pennsylvania, likes of which they haven't seen in

130
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: a very very long time. You know, I told you.

131
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: You know, if you've been watching this show, then you

132
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: know that I've been involved on the back end of

133
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: everything Pennsylvania for the last two years. Now, then you

134
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: also know that I ran for Congress in Pennsylvania in

135
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty cycle with President Trump. I also ran

136
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: for Senate in twenty twenty two. I know this state,

137
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: I knew what needed to happen here, and I knew

138
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: that whatever we did moving forward would be outcome determined

139
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: to do. And so we went to work raising a

140
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: ton of money trying to fight the political fight in Pennsylvania,

141
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: just like the Democrats did. In twenty twenty, the Democrats

142
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: had over a six hundred and fifty thousand, actually closer

143
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: to eight hundred thousand person voter registration advantage in this year,

144
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: in this election cycle that their voter registration advantags was

145
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: about three hundred and twenty five thousand. So with the

146
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: help of other great patriots like Scott Presler, we were

147
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: able to cut that number in half by fighting the

148
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: fight the way that the Democrats do. What we also

149
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: did in an organization that I ran was fight the

150
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: mail in ballot game, in the early vote game. For

151
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: those who might be new listening or watching the program,

152
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: No I don't like mail in ballots. No I wish

153
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: we didn't have them. If I were governor of Pennsylvania

154
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: for a day, first thing that I would do was

155
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: sign election reform and get rid of mail in ballots

156
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,599
Speaker 1: and go back only to absentee ballots for very for

157
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: very specific reasons as outlined in the Pennsylvania State Constitution.

158
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: But that's not the point. If you want to change

159
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 1: election law, you got to actually win. And so we

160
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: went all in on this early vote and mail in

161
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: ballot program. And listen to this, at the end of

162
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: the cycle, we added over two hundred and forty thousand,

163
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: four hundred and thirty Republicans to the permanent vote by

164
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: mail list. This was the very first election cycle where

165
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: Republicans added more voters to that list than the Democrats.

166
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: We also produced get this number. This is this is

167
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: no bullshit data here, folks. We also produced three hundred

168
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: and sixty five thousand first time vote by mail voters.

169
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: Those are the first three hundred and sixty five thousand

170
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: people that we need to fold into the program for

171
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: the next couple of years. The point is this will

172
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 1: benefit at our party, the America First Movement immensely moving forward.

173
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: The goal is to take Pennsylvania off the board for

174
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: the Democrats. The goal is to turn Pennsylvania into Florida.

175
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 1: If we do that and the map continues to shrink

176
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: for the Democrats, it makes it very hard for them

177
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: to win the electoral College. Damn near impossible because if

178
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris lost Pennsylvania. We've talked about this many times,

179
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: ninety six percent chance that Trump is going back to

180
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: the White House. That's not going to change anytime soon.

181
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: That's not going to change in subsequent cycles. The only

182
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: thing that we need to do on our end is

183
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: make sure that our people show up and adding people

184
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: to the permanent vote by mail list where you have

185
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: their name, you have their address of where a ballot

186
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: is being shipped and all you do is pick up

187
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: the phone and call them or send a piece of

188
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: mail to them. It makes our job a hell of

189
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: a lot easier. So if we're talking about a pathway

190
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: to Republicans in power as often as possible, then going

191
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: all in on Pennsylvania and taking it off the board

192
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: for them while their map continues to shrink does just that.

193
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: So that's why the Democrats are panicked. And again, so

194
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: much of what Brian and I are going to talk

195
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: about are going to be the history of the great

196
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: Reset why I think it's collapsing or might be at

197
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 1: least on the ropes all over the world. The Democrat

198
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: radical leftist globalist agenda here in America is also on

199
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: the ropes. It's part of all of this. So I've

200
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: got Brian Dean Wright on deck right now. I want

201
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: to bring them on. Welcome my friend, Brian Star, host

00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,079

208
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,520

209
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: have put my name in the title of my show.

210
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: Damn it. See you have the Right Report. Your name

212
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, well it makes me so famous. I can't step possible.

213
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 3: Everybody informs me huge.

214
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: So people in the chat, someone was saying that your

215
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: show yesterday you talked about you traced your lineage and

216
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: journey here to America. So first of all, you got

217
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: to tell me what are you doing over there on

218
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: the right Report.

219
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 3: Well I gotta tell you. So yesterday I had such

220
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 3: the distinct honor and privilege of giving everybody the family

221
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 3: story going back to the sixteen hundreds in this country.

222
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 3: It's just such an amazing story. My family came across

223
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 3: the Oregon Trail in the eighteen hundreds, and we have

224
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 3: all the old diaries and the old letters and huge photos. Yeah,

225
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 3: it's so it's so amazing. You know, next year, I'm

226
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 3: going to weave in more of the quotes they went

227
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 3: back and forth from the family in Indiana and then

228
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 3: the family in Oregon, which is where they were at

229
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 3: at the time. So my fourth grade grandfather was in

230
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 3: Iowa or in Indiana any rate. It's just such an

231
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 3: amazing story. When we think about giving thanks, you know,

232
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 3: we have so many reasons to get things for me.

233
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 3: I remember the ancestors yesterday. That's such an important thing,

234
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 3: and that was a fun thing to do with the audience,

235
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 3: is just let them know that in my family, we've

236
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 3: got a lot to celebrate. We all do, because we

237
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 3: all have stories and grandparents and great grandparents upon which

238
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 3: we had this amazing foundation of a country that we're

239
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 3: trying to keep together a more perfect union. And it's

240
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 3: tough to do, and sometimes we have some people who

241
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 3: actually hate the country. So it's nice to just give

242
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 3: ourselves a big old, warm, fuzzy hug and be like

243
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 3: we are standing on the shoulders of giants who built

244
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 3: this nation.

245
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: I really appreciate you saying that because I say it often,

246
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 1: and you know, and talk about me joining the military

247
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: as some after nine to eleven, twenty something, early twenties,

248
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: thinking to myself, man, I just you know, want to

249
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 1: get in the fight, take the fight to the enemy,

250
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: younger version of myself. That's all I could think about.

251
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,959
Speaker 1: I just wanted to go after the people who attacked us.

252
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: That's it. But now, being you know, a little bit older,

253
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: probably some better perspective on life. I look back and

254
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: think at all of the men and women who served

255
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: our country and thought, holy smoke, had I known this

256
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 1: going in, I probably would have. I don't know. I

257
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: not taken any of that for granted, and I wish

258
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 1: I would have. You know, when I talked to cadets

259
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: at military academies, that's what I tell them. Understand that

260
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: you're going in and really standing on the shoulders of

261
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: giants here. And so wait, your family was on the

262
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: Oregon Trail. My early experience with that is the video

263
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: game and elementary So yeah, yes, but you.

264
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 3: Know about sixty five thousand people died on that Oregon

265
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 3: Trail through all those years of people trying to come out,

266
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 3: well they found My family was not one of them.

267
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 3: But yeah, my third great grandfather was born on the

268
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 3: Oregon Trail in the Dibractic territory, no doctors, no nurses,

269
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 3: back of a wagon with his mom and his father, Albert,

270
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 3: and his two older sisters at the time. Yeah, it's

271
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 3: incredible they actually held back through the winter because then

272
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 3: they sent the brother first and two of his buddies

273
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 3: on horseback to try to get to Oregon first because

274
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 3: there were a lot of claim jumpers. So they went forward.

275
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 3: They left the wagon train behind, so they waited until

276
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 3: they that spring they're broke, and then they headed out

277
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 3: west and they got to organ and time to get

278
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 3: the claim. It's it's an amazing story. It's yeah, it's incredible.

279
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I not to go too far down

280
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 1: this path, but do you ever think about just if

281
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: things happened differently, how every like just sounds I'm real

282
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: back to the future shit. But Melanie was reading this

283
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: book about the Mayflower coming over about one of the

284
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 1: passengers on the Mayflower getting swept overboard, but he clung

285
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: to this chain. People rescued him. The guy survived, had

286
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: a huge family. Three presidents come from this guy's family.

287
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: But all that guy has to do is not hold

288
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: on to the chain and drown and none of that happens.

289
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: Like you exist, you know, I mean you talk about

290
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: standing on the shoulders of giants. How close I mean

291
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: did you come to like just not existing? Yeah, it's

292
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: just insane.

293
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 3: It's just my third great grandfather, grandmother or Julie Ann

294
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 3: not giving Bert to Silas who was her boy, or

295
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 3: if she had died and birth on the Oregon Trail

296
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 3: in Nebraska territory, I wouldn't be here. But if you

297
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 3: go back two generations prior to that, my fifth grade

298
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 3: grandfather was born to a woman who we don't quite

299
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 3: know who the father was. Through GNA or DNA analysis,

300
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 3: we know that the last name was probably a Parker.

301
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 3: In seventeen hundreds, if a woman was giving birth to

302
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: a child out of wedlock, not a good deal. But

303
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 3: we don't know the conception because there could have been

304
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 3: a lot of very terrible things that have happened to her.

305
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 3: But the point is a man in southern New Hampshire

306
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 3: took her in, and my fifth great grandfather didn't have to,

307
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 3: he had four sons of his own took her in

308
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 3: and my fifth grade grandfather and raised the man or

309
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 3: the young boy as his own son and gave him

310
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 3: a life or he wouldn't have otherwise had it. So

311
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 3: I come from very humble beginnings. I also come from

312
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 3: the very beginning of this country. But you think about it, like,

313
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 3: we have so many incredible stories in this country who've

314
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 3: been for all kinds of places, for rich and poor

315
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 3: and otherwise. But I think what unites a lot of

316
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 3: us today in today's America is that you can still

317
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 3: be successful if you work hard. And that's what my

318
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 3: fifth grade grandfather I think showed future generations is he

319
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 3: became a farmer and then a blacksmith. When his boys

320
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 3: reached the age of eighteen, he give them an axe.

321
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 3: He shook their hands and said good luck, and he did.

322
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 3: And what we have in the family diaries, he taught

323
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 3: or he treated his sons like a neighbor. From that

324
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 3: point on. They were still his sons, of course, but

325
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 3: he put them out, them out on the nest and

326
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 3: said it's time for you to go on your own.

327
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 3: And so two of his boys went across the Oregon

328
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 3: Trail to find their destiny. And I'm here with you

329
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 3: now because of that.

330
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: It's amazing and it's part of the reason why people

331
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 1: should be listening to your podcast. It really is amazing,

332
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: and people have come to really enjoy it. They're always

333
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:45,959
Speaker 1: talking about it in the chat on the show, and

334
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: so yeah, I'm glad you're really I mean, I guess

335
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: it makes sense that like you were in the CIA,

336
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 1: because there's some overlap between being like an operations intelligence officer,

337
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: spy type guy, but also being a good researcher. I

338
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: think you've got to be both. I'm more of like

339
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,120
Speaker 1: a door kicker, knuckle dragger, I'm more of I don't

340
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 1: think I could ever. I don't think I have the

341
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 1: attention to detail to do anything like that.

342
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 3: We see where we're teams. This is what we all

343
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 3: bring our own stuff to the table. Friend, we need

344
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,239
Speaker 3: the door knockers. We need that. We need guys like you.

345
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 3: Don't you worry about that right now? Look, you leave

346
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 3: the fast cars and the pretty girls to me, but

347
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 3: I'll have you going bang down the door. How about that?

348
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 3: Does that work?

349
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: That sounds fine? That sounds fine. Okay, So let's shift

350
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 1: gears to Ukraine and potential nuclear war. Now it's a

351
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: real good transition right right there.

352
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 2: Heavy things giving everybody, we're all gonna die. Now, it's

353
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 2: time for everybody gets to be super stressed. Let's talk

354
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 2: about potential. We talked about what we're thankful for. Now

355
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 2: let's just talk about how it could all get wiped

356
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 2: out in just a second. So, so, in all seriousness,

357
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 2: I do think that this Ukraine situation is not getting

358
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 2: enough media. You you honestly would think it would be

359
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 2: getting more given how close we are to really bad

360
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 2: things happening. You and I texted earlier in the week

361
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 2: that Britain and France are sending their advisors there. We

362
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 2: definitely already have CIA people on the ground there. I

363
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 2: would even bet that we've got Special Operations forces on

364
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 2: the ground. They're actual, maybe non conventional, but US military

365
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 2: types on the battlefield there.

366
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 3: Is it's confirmed? Yeah?

367
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,719
Speaker 1: Is it? Is it really confirmed? I mean, I like

368
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: we have uniformed American military personnel there. I mean, it's

369
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: just the war keeps marching to me in the wrong direction.

370
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 1: And I found this SoundBite which just is an interview

371
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: I think on the BBC with Zelenski talking about what

372
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 1: the end of the conflict could look like, and that

373
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: just for the people who are listening and watching, that

374
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: Zolensky might be willing to seed Russian held territory to Putin,

375
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: but in exchange for them being granted access to Nado,

376
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: which has always been a red line for Putin. So

377
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 1: it's like, on one hand, here you have Zelenski saying, yeah,

378
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: we'll give We'll see some of this terrain, but you know,

379
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 1: we got to get access to NATO. Like, listen to

380
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: him talking about this, and I want to get your reaction.

381
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 4: Well, one alternative perhaps again this is reported from the

382
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 4: United States, and it's fairly simple, really, is that Ukraine

383
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 4: joins NATO, but Russia takes control and keeps the land

384
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,640
Speaker 4: that it has to date, would that be a possibility.

385
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,199
Speaker 5: No one has offered us to be in NATO with

386
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 5: just one part or another part of Ukraine.

387
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: That's for once fucked.

388
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 5: The fact is that it is a solution to stop

389
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 5: the hot stage of the war, because we can just

390
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 5: give the native membership to the part of Ukraine that

391
00:20:54,520 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 5: is under our control. Fact more, yes, it could be possible.

392
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 3: But no one offered, Trevor Aby.

393
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 5: But the invitation must be given to Ukraine within its

394
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 5: internationally recognized border. You can't give invitation to just one

395
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 5: part of a country. Why because thus you would recognize

396
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 5: that Ukraine is only that territory of Ukraine and the

397
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 5: other one is Russia.

398
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 3: It's god uridich no minimo bra.

399
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 5: So legally, by law, we have no right to recognize

400
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 5: the occupied territory as territory of Russia. And here we

401
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 5: must not make any mistake to study Vini. But if

402
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 5: we want to stop the hot stage of the war,

403
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 5: we should take under natal umbrella the territory of Ukraine

404
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 5: that we have under our control. That's what we need

405
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 5: to do fast, and then Ukraine can get back the

406
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 5: other part of its territory diplomatically.

407
00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:01,439
Speaker 1: So he's not saying he's he's because it's being I mean,

408
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: I've listened to this several times. It's being reported as, yeah, look,

409
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 1: we'll let Putin keep whatever he has. Now, just give

410
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: us access to NATO. I don't think Putin's ever going

411
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: to be okay with that. But let's say, for example,

412
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: that that happens. He's never given that, She's never given

413
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 1: that territory. Up, it's not gonna happen. And I'm not

414
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 1: saying or advocating, hey, well let's back down to Putin, right,

415
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: because I that guy's a terrible, evil dictator. But this

416
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 1: stuff all seems like a pipe dream to me. Brian,

417
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 1: Am I right? Am I wrong? Tell me what you're thinking.

418
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 3: Look, Zelenski's doing what he should do as a president

419
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 3: of his own country, which is trying to defend its

420
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 3: interest in only its interests. So he's doing what he

421
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,360
Speaker 3: is supposed to do what his people elected him to do.

422
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 3: That does not mean that we our president and our

423
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 3: Congress and guys like Vindemann and others in our Congress

424
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 3: or in our political system, that we should do what

425
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 3: Ukraine wants. So we have to back and ask ourselves

426
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 3: what's the what are our interests here? Because you are correct,

427
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 3: for folks unaware, we have a multiple CIA basis six

428
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 3: to ten of them depending on who you ask, inside

429
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 3: of Ukraine right now. We have special operations forces inside

430
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 3: of Ukraine right now. And Yessu're quite right to say

431
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 3: the United Kingdom and France are both concerned in putting

432
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 3: their own ground troops in Ukraine in addition to their

433
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 3: own contractors. So this war is absolutely escalating in the

434
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 3: wrong direction obviously, so we should be asking, well, so

435
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 3: why do we care what Zelenski wants or not? And

436
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 3: ultimately I think our play here is we want Europe

437
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 3: to be stable so we can have good trade relationships

438
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 3: with that continent and do we have peace. That's fundamentally

439
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 3: what we want. So when we have a conversation with Putin, whatever,

440
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 3: the deal is fine, but let's make sure that it

441
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 3: is a lasting and a durable piece that's the goal.

442
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 3: That's the end goal. So that's why you might hear

443
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:52,719
Speaker 3: some people talk about it. In fact, I think some

444
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 3: Trump's people saying, let's create like a de militarized zone

445
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 3: through a good chunk of NATO. Did that DMZ becomes

446
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 3: patrolled by European powers and the rest of the rump

447
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 3: of Ukraine does not become NATO. It just becomes this

448
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 3: sort of buffer state with the DMC absolutely the buffer

449
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 3: as it were, between Russia and the rest of Europe.

450
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 3: And that creates your piece. Now, that's a very unhappy

451
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 3: outcome for a lot of people in Ukraine right now.

452
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 3: Of course they're going to lose a chunk of their

453
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 3: territory plus the DMZ, but they've also lost hundreds of

454
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,719
Speaker 3: thousands of their men. They're young men in a country

455
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 3: with the demographic crisis that was already running out of men.

456
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 3: And yes, what you heard this week from the Biden

457
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 3: White House to multiple media outlets is that they're encouraging

458
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 3: the government of Ukraine to lower their age requirement for

459
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 3: the men that they're going to throw to this meat

460
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 3: grinder from twenty five to eighteen. And the reason that

461
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 3: Zelensky and the government in Kiev have not done that

462
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 3: to date. Is because they want those men to have

463
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 3: babies and reverse the demographic crisis and decline. But if

464
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 3: you're going to throw the rest of your young men

465
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 3: into this meat grinder, you're not going to have any

466
00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 3: men left to populate the nation. And yet that's exactly

467
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 3: what the West is now telling them. By the way,

468
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 3: the Germans are also telling kievan Zelensky the same thing.

469
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 3: So you get the entirety of the West telling Ukraine

470
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 3: throw your young men, all of them, all of them

471
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 3: into this fight. That's interesting. Why what do we want

472
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 3: Ukraine to bleed out in this war of attrition which

473
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 3: we know the Ukrainians are not going to win. They

474
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 3: have less than twenty five percent of the total population,

475
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 3: and a war of attrition, if you are the twenty

476
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 3: five percent, your enemy is the seventy five percent. You

477
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 3: lose absent some crazy weapon which ain't gonna have because

478
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 3: the Risidins have ANUK. So this war of attrition was

479
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 3: lost from day one. The Pentagon, the CIA, the White House,

480
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 3: they all knew this from day one, which really starts

481
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 3: to get into some dark conversation around why the West,

482
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 3: why the United States would allow a war of attrition

483
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 3: knowing that it was going to slaughter the Ukrainian people,

484
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 3: most of their young men.

485
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, why why? And now you see Putin threatening Ukraine

486
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,639
Speaker 1: and Zelensky with hitting some of their commanding control centers

487
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: with high personic missiles too. The West knows this, and yeah,

488
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 1: it really does beg the question why continue to throw

489
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: Ukrainian men to the meat grinder and essentially wipe out

490
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 1: their population? As you said, sometimes in a war of attrition,

491
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: you get you out all the time. In a war

492
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: of attritionan you get exactly that attrition in Ukraine is

493
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: not in a position to withstand that Russia just has

494
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 1: more people, full stop. So what the hell? Why escalate?

495
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 1: You know why?

496
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 3: What you're asking is what we should all be asking

497
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 3: two hundred billion plus dollars into this war. What's the

498
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,439
Speaker 3: strategy here? What's the endgame? What's the goal? Well we

499
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 3: actually got some of that at the very beginning of

500
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 3: this conflict in March and then again in April. Joe

501
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 3: Biden and then the Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin respectively

502
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 3: in March and April said that the goal here is

503
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 3: a regime change. You may remember Biden delivered a speech

504
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 3: in Poland in markets.

505
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: We've got to talk more. That's a great regime change,

506
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: because that's what it's. People forget about that, Brian.

507
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 3: Well, that's only half of it. So regime change is

508
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 3: the first part. That's the ultimate goal. Is Biden laid

509
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 3: out the other half of it, which is what Secretary

510
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 3: Austin said in April of twenty twenty two, is if

511
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 3: it's not regime change, it is grinding the Russian military

512
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 3: and the Russian state into such a weakened rump that

513
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 3: it can be controlled regime.

514
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: Change in Russia. You're talking about they want Putin out

515
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: of there.

516
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 3: Well, it's either Putin remains that the preference would be

517
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 3: that Putin is gone. Joe Biden made that clear that

518
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:34,880
Speaker 3: speech in Poland the next month when Lloyd Austin said

519
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 3: the goal is to degrade Putin's forces so that he

520
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 3: can quote never do this again sort of and go

521
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 3: so some paraphrasing, but it's dark close to the exact quote.

522
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 3: So if we can't remove Putin in other words, this

523
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 3: is the strategy. Biden can't and his team can't remove Putin,

524
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 3: We're going to degrade his military to the point that

525
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 3: he can't create any sort of military havoc ever. Again, Okay,

526
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 3: let's just say that that is a strategy. Can we

527
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 3: be honest about that, and can we talk about it?

528
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 3: And if that's the strategy, then that would make some

529
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 3: degree of sense that the Pentagon and Western leaders in

530
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 3: Saint Brussels or Paris in France would be willing to

531
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 3: sacrifice every single last Ukrainian man for that mission. Okay,

532
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,199
Speaker 3: let's be honest about that. And now let's ask the

533
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 3: Ukrainian people. Are you Happyrea? Are you okay with us

534
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 3: using you and your men as our puppets as our

535
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 3: proxy fighters? Are you okay with that? Are we okay

536
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 3: with sending five eight hundred thousand and one million Ukrainian

537
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 3: men to their deaths? I mean, that's the conversation we

538
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 3: need to have, and then we need to ask ourselves

539
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 3: a question. Well, wait a minute, So Boutin's not a

540
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 3: good guy. Obviously, he represents his own interests and he's

541
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 3: a meglomaniac, got it. But that doesn't mean that we

542
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 3: have to engage an endless war. There are other options,

543
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 3: diplomatic options like the DMZ and putting the French in

544
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 3: the Russian or the French, of the British troops in

545
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 3: the DMZ, etc. So are there other ways to deal

546
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 3: with Moscow other than a war where the vast majority

547
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 3: of men are slaughtered? And this isn't some hyperbole, by

548
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 3: the way. You know, in other wars, for instance, the

549
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 3: Three Nation War down in South America back in the

550
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 3: eighteen hundreds, ninety percent of Paraguayan men died in that war.

551
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 3: So you can have a situation where something like that happens,

552
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 3: where you're talking about ninety ninety five percent of all

553
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 3: the men of Ukraine gone. God, all right, if you

554
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 3: were a mom or a dad in Ukraine, that's kind

555
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 3: of bad. You would want the world to talk about that. Second,

556
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 3: if you look at the men right now that are

557
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 3: serving versus the men in Ukraine who aren't serving, there's

558
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 3: a very important difference. Who's the canon fodder in Ukraine

559
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 3: right now? Well, the men you can forward about ten

560
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 3: thousand dollars to get out of Ukraine to go into Poland, Germany, Romania,

561
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 3: those are the rich men. So the men in Ukraine

562
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 3: who are not fighting, they're the rich men. The poor men,

563
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 3: whether it be in Kiev or mostly in the rural

564
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 3: areas of Ukraine that cannot afford ten thousand dollars, so

565
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 3: they get snatched by the Ukrainian police, thrown into a unit.

566
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 3: And those are the guys who are the cannon fought.

567
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 3: It's the poor and the rural, as we have seen

568
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 3: countless times in our own country's history as well as

569
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 3: all around the world, that who suffers. So this gets

570
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 3: back then to the strategy we want to use Ukraine

571
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 3: as our puppet to try to degrade Putin. Okay, we're

572
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 3: starting to get into this very State Department Harvard Ivory

573
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 3: Tower conversation about getting down our maps and our pens

574
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 3: and redrawing the lines of Europe. That sounds all lovely

575
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 3: like we've read in some sort of history book, but

576
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 3: we're talking about lives, young men. You and I have

577
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 3: talked about this, not just on your podcast but otherwise.

578
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 3: You and I have gone through this walk in this

579
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 3: country's journey of the global War on Terror. We know

580
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 3: what it's like to have friends who die. We know

581
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 3: what it's like to have friends who lose arms and legs.

582
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 3: We know what it's like to have them come back

583
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 3: in their mind scrambled. That happens set on our porches

584
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 3: and talk about suicide. So we know what this cost

585
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 3: looks like in a very real, in a very personal way.

586
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,479
Speaker 3: We're not sitting at State Department headquarters or UB at

587
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 3: Harvard having a conversation about remap on the world. So

588
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 3: that's what I think in this new administration when I pray,

589
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 3: is that that somebody represents those voices irrespective of this

590
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 3: big power play between Brussels and DC and Moscow and

591
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 3: all that kind of stuff, that we remember a little

592
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 3: bit of our humanity as we think about trying to

593
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 3: find ways to engage in peace. That doesn't mean that

594
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 3: we absolutely take war off the table. There is such

595
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 3: a thing as righteous war, that's correct, But in this case,

596
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 3: it's really important that we recognize in a war attrition,

597
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,959
Speaker 3: Ukraine's not going to win unless we send in troops.

598
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 3: And are we willing to do that? No, we're not.

599
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 3: So why would you send another generation eighteen to twenty

600
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 3: five year old men in Ukraine to their deaths because

601
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 3: we want to puppeteer these guys who we can take out,

602
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 3: putin or minimize or weaken his regime. Sorry, there are

603
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 3: other ways to do that, And how dare our leaders

604
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 3: in the West use these young men, these poor rural

605
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 3: men in Ukraine to do their bidding as cannon fodder.

606
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 3: It's absolutely evil.

607
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: That's what I couldn't agree with you more. I really,

608
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: there really is something that's deeply unsettling about, Yeah, We'll

609
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: just get the Ukrainians to do our fighting for us.

610
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: And listen, I've heard Republicans and Democrats heard Lindsay Graham

611
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: say this, the Ukrainians are killing Russians for us, And

612
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: I'm just like thinking to myself, I don't find that honorable.

613
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: You know that they're going to get killed. Why are

614
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: we advocating for it? Why are we It's just something

615
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: about that just seems very dishonorable. And I think for

616
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: President Trump and you talk about, you know, this next

617
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 1: administration thinking a certain way. When he was asked by

618
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: Caitlin Collins on CNN like are you what do you

619
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: want to you want putin to win this war, He's like,

620
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: I want people to stop dying. I thought that was

621
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: the right answer.

622
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 3: Yes, you know, yes, Look, one of the things that

623
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 3: makes me a little bit concerned, and you and I

624
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 3: talked about this, is that the new point person that

625
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 3: mister Trump has chosen to try to resolve this issue

626
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 3: in Ukraine is a man who historically has made this

627
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 3: argument that we will win this war and we will

628
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 3: be with Ukraine for as long as it takes, and

629
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 3: we will degrade Putin and the Russian military. Well, who's

630
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 3: the wee friend General Kellogg? I believe is his name.

631
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 3: With all due respect to his tremendous service, he's a

632
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 3: good man, no doubt. But again, these same three four

633
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 3: star generals are also the ones who got us into

634
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 3: a rock in Afghanistan in Ukraine obviously, and we have lost.

635
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 3: So there should be some very tough questions asked of

636
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 3: men like him. Despite the fact that they're very honorable,

637
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 3: that does not mean that they can't be wrong. And

638
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 3: so he has advocated a position that I think is

639
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 3: very very troubling to me, and I sure hope that

640
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 3: he brings a very different perspective than what the mister Kellogg.

641
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 3: General Kellogg has said for years now, which is we're

642
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 3: going to use these young Ukraine men for our sort

643
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 3: of puppet fight against Putin. I think that that is

644
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 3: absolutely the wrong way to go, and the State Department

645
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 3: under Makro Rubio has a much much better chance of

646
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 3: resolving this issue. This needs to be solved with the diplomats,

647
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 3: not with the barrel of a gun, not this one,

648
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 3: not this fight.

649
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:55,959
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. Can you stay right there? Can

650
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: I take a quick break and come back talk about

651
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: the Great Reset and the history of that and why

652
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: I why you know? I you definitely at least I

653
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: don't want to speak for you, but I think it's

654
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: kind of on the ropes and they're afraid. Do you

655
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: do you kind of agree?

656
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:09,439
Speaker 3: Yes, sir?

657
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: All right, so stay right there. We'll be back with

658
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: Brian Dean Wright. Back with Brian Dean Wright. Welcome back,

659
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: my friend, host of the Right Report. Former CIA operations

660
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 1: officer Brian the British Prime Minister came out today and

661
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: said something that was kind of crazy and and what

662
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: I mean by crazy is not in keeping with their

663
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: ideological worldview. In fact, what he said today was the

664
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: opposite of what people like him have been saying for

665
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 1: a very long time. And anytime these globalists come out

666
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 1: and say something that shocks me a little bit, that

667
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: sounds like something Trump could have said to me, I

668
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 1: immediately am suspicious and think that there's an agenda behind it.

669
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:55,319
Speaker 1: And so I want, I want to listen to this

670
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: sound by it of the British Prime Minister and then

671
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 1: get your thoughts on all of this.

672
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 6: What the British people are owed is an explanation, because

673
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 6: a failure on this scale isn't just bad luck. It

674
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 6: isn't a global trend or taking your eye off the ball. No,

675
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 6: this is a different order of failure. This happened by design,

676
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 6: not accident. Policies were reformed deliberately to liberalize immigration. Brexit

677
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 6: was used for that purpose, to turn Britain into a

678
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:39,320
Speaker 6: one nation experiment in open borders global Britain.

679
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 1: Remember that slogan.

680
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 6: That is what they meant, a policy with no support

681
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 6: of which they then pretended wasn't happening.

682
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it sounds a lot like President Trump. But

683
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 1: this guy does not believe the same things that President

684
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: Trump believes. And it's interesting that he says this now

685
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: knowing that President Trump's going to be back in office

686
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 1: in a couple of months.

687
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 3: Well, let's start with this. So we know that this

688
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 3: gentleman is a lifelong socialist, and I mean lifelong Marxist.

689
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 3: When he was eighteen through about twenty five, he was

690
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 3: an editor for a Marxist magazine a couple of years ago.

691
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 3: He was interviewed and he was asked if he was

692
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,959
Speaker 3: still a socialist, and he said yes. So let's start

693
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 3: with this. So when we hear socialists talk about how

694
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 3: open borders are bad, you're absolutely right to say, well,

695
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 3: that's shocking, that's very surprising, that's not what they believe,

696
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 3: because they don't. Marxists believe in open borders. So just

697
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 3: make sure that we're all tracking on this. Marxists make

698
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 3: the argument that human labor people should be able to

699
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 3: go across borders at will because capital business owners do

700
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 3: it all the time, So in order to make that

701
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 3: more equitable, we should have open borders. That is the

702
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 3: Marxist foundational position. So this man has been a Marxist

703
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 3: entire life, and not just kind of like he thought

704
00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 3: about it in college. Right, He wasn't just experimenting. This

705
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,879
Speaker 3: guy was straight up Marxist. So for him to now

706
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 3: say that one of the foundational beliefs of a Marxist,

707
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,280
Speaker 3: he no longer believes that, And he's in fact blaming

708
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 3: open borders on the conservatives, who have long advocated for

709
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 3: not having open borders, for actually having a strong Britain.

710
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 3: In fact, in the UK, the previous prime minister, the

711
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 3: Conservative Prime minister, was trying to ship these illegals that

712
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 3: come across the channel to Rwanda. That was his plan

713
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,720
Speaker 3: because he was boxed in by European rules, by British rules,

714
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 3: and so he was thinking about, you know, dumping these

715
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 3: people off in Rwanda. So he's changing. So that's really

716
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 3: important for us to think about a b This is

717
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 3: the same guy who sent some of his staffers to

718
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 3: help Kamala Harris win this last election. They failed. So

719
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 3: wait a minute. Kamala Harris was not talking about open

720
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 3: borders for the last four years. He did for the

721
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 3: last for the last couple of months. So what is

722
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:56,720
Speaker 3: then that's changed. What does that suggest is happening? Well,

723
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 3: we definitely should take this moment of surprise to pause.

724
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 3: You were absolutely correct to say that there's something very

725
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,359
Speaker 3: very alarming going on here when a Marxist says, hey,

726
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 3: open borders are bad. So this is when it's important

727
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 3: to take a step back, and I do try to

728
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 3: do this on my podcast. I know you and I

729
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 3: have talked about this on your podcast as well. If

730
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 3: you look at what's been happening over the past five years,

731
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 3: and you compare that to say, thirty forty years ago,

732
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 3: it's a very very different kind of Europe. So here's

733
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 3: what I mean. Thirty four years ago, as the Cold

734
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 3: War was coming to a conclusion, and then it came

735
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 3: to a conclusion, we had a lot of people start

736
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 3: to on the left start to percolate back up into

737
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 3: power throughout the European continent. These were Marxist socialists, avowed

738
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 3: obvious ones, so they weren't hiding it anymore. So that

739
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 3: then translated to all kinds of things, so like much

740
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 3: more social spending, much less dramatic, or much less spending

741
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 3: on defense, much more you know, in many cases of

742
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 3: open borders. And part of that was due to what

743
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 3: the World Economic Forum guys like who had that up,

744
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,479
Speaker 3: lau Schwab and others. They argue that look, post Cold War,

745
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 3: in post Second World War, capitalism just didn't really work out.

746
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 3: There's too much inequity in the world, and so we

747
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 3: need to sort of reimagine. They would say capitalism, and

748
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 3: they call it stakeholder capitalism. All right, well, what does

749
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 3: that really mean. What it means is socialism and Marxism.

750
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 3: But like the socialists here in the United States who

751
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,479
Speaker 3: have openly said, look, anytime socialism has been tried around

752
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,919
Speaker 3: the world, it's failed. Status regimes have ruled in our name,

753
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 3: So we can't so we can't say.

754
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 1: How the hell do you know all of this? This

755
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 1: is insane.

756
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 3: So I wrote about this years ago when I was

757
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 3: still a Democrat, because I was trying to warn my

758
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 3: party at the time, we are letting this this radicalized

759
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 3: leftist route, which is evil. One hundred and sixty eight

760
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,919
Speaker 3: plus million people I've died because of this ideology. Jack

761
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 3: Kennedy and others knocked this stuff out of our party.

762
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 3: It's coming back. We got to do something about it.

763
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 3: And at the time I'm like Pelosi, knock it off.

764
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 3: You know, blue dogs, where are you? Well we all

765
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 3: see where that went. The point is this, socialists in

766
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 3: this country know that the regimes around the world have

767
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 3: tried socialism have failed, whether it be social or Marxism,

768
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 3: whatever in between. So over the past thirty years, socialists

769
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 3: and these reformed capitalists have said, look, we're going to

770
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,839
Speaker 3: ditch the old ways that we've done things. We need

771
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,399
Speaker 3: to reimagine the ways that we do it. We can't

772
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 3: call it socialism. So we got to call it stakehold

773
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 3: older capitalism. And a part of that, though, is still

774
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 3: going to hold tight to certain socialists from Marxist tenants,

775
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 3: one of them being open borders. And that's what you've

776
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,880
Speaker 3: seen throughout Europe now for thirty plus years. Sweden was

777
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:28,720
Speaker 3: one of the first, but we've seen it in places

778
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 3: like Germany on Goola Merkel, while not necessarily a socialist,

779
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 3: certainly embraced this reforming of capitalism. That's why she opened

780
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,879
Speaker 3: up her borders to one plus million Syrian and other

781
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 3: North African and Middle Eastern migrants. Words are now trying

782
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 3: to destroy that country. But we see this all over

783
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 3: the place, from the UK to Ireland, to Spain, Portugal, Italy,

784
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 3: on and on this goes. So that has been the

785
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 3: experiment changing Europe to make it less what it was

786
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 3: in the Cold War and more like the Claud Schwab

787
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 3: version of this reformed capitalism which is just Marxism. Well

788
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 3: as it trains out a great reset, the Great Reset,

789
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 3: yes they called it the Great Reset. They want to

790
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 3: reset capitalism and create and creates a sort of this

791
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 3: reformed capitalism, the stakeholder capitalism. Interesting, so this is not

792
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 3: a conspiracy. The World Economic Forum has talked a lot

793
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 3: about it. Klaus Schwab has talked a lot about it,

794
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 3: and that's his fundamental belief is the capitalism has just

795
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 3: destroyed too many lives, it has made too many people poor,

796
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,880
Speaker 3: it has destroyed the environment, and it has caused global

797
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 3: warming or global climate change. And so that is the

798
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 3: foundational argument by a Marxist, although I think we could

799
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 3: probably make the argument they don't really believe in all

800
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 3: that stuff. They probably don't really believe in climate change.

801
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 3: They just use it as a pretext to create this

802
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 3: Marxist regime. But anyway, that's a whole different story. The

803
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 3: bottom line is this my man. So this change then

804
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 3: has been taken off in Europe, hasn't it. I mean,

805
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 3: Europe forty thirty years ago does not look like the

806
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 3: Europe today. And that happens to make a lot of

807
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 3: Europeans very angry, very angry. It's what we've seen over

808
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 3: the past five years is from Sweden, Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, France, Italy, Poland, Slovakia, Austria, Spain, Portugal,

809
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 3: the UK, Ireland, all of these nations and more have

810
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 3: started to swing to the right much more conservative. And

811
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 3: of course the reaction by the media in Europe and

812
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,240
Speaker 3: the United States is, oh, there, those are not says,

813
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 3: those are the radical rights all.

814
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 1: That was exactly what they say. It doesn't right. By

815
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 1: the way, by the way, any conservative now is far right.

816
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,319
Speaker 1: You're not. I mean, like you're far right, I'm far right.

817
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 1: We're all far right.

818
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 3: Well, never mind that I say the same things that

819
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 3: I did twenty years ago as a democratic but anyway,

820
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:41,919
Speaker 3: and Barack Obama did and Hillary Clinton but anyway, true. Yeah,

821
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 3: look at the DNC platforms. You and I went through

822
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 3: this in the summertime. It's like it's maga if you

823
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 3: want to call it then. But here's the point. The

824
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 3: people of Europe are angry, just like the people in

825
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 3: this country. We are angry about open borders and we're

826
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 3: saying no. And what's happening is across the European continent

827
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,879
Speaker 3: and in this country the left is being pushed out

828
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,760
Speaker 3: because their experiment around open borders is unacceptable. This Marxist

829
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 3: belief that human labor should be able to cross across

830
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,239
Speaker 3: borders irrespective of vetting, in order to equal out with

831
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 3: the capital and the business owners. That argument expressed through

832
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 3: open borders has made a lot of people very angry,

833
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 3: and the voters are tossing out the left and they

834
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 3: know this, and they know this the Marxist in the left,

835
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 3: which is the Labor Party in the UK Kero Starmer,

836
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 3: who you highlighted, he knows this. They all know that

837
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 3: if they stick with this great reset, they will be

838
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 3: thrown out for a generation or longer. So what they

839
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,440
Speaker 3: have to do is recalibrate for the short term to

840
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 3: try to keep their power. Because mister Starmer is one

841
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 3: of the few who actually is retaining control. A lot

842
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:43,759
Speaker 3: of others are getting tossed out, just like we saw

843
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 3: in the United States. So that's what's happening right now

844
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 3: in Europe sort of big picture post Cold War, Second

845
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 3: World War. They're trying to get rid of traditional capitalism

846
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 3: as we have known it. They're trying to replace it

847
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 3: with stakeholder capitalism, which is really socialism rebranded that involves

848
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,560
Speaker 3: open borders. That has failed, That has pissed off a

849
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 3: whole bunch of people, to the point where a couple

850
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:04,560
Speaker 3: of weeks ago you and I talked about the fact

851
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 3: that the Berlin police chief said that the gays and

852
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,439
Speaker 3: the Jews can't go into Certa neighborhoods in Berlin because

853
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,640
Speaker 3: the Arabs will slaughter them. Well, okay, that's what happens

854
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 3: when you don't have border controls and jacks, and you

855
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 3: don't vet people at your embassies and your consulates. You

856
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 3: just let in everybody, riff raff and lovely people combined.

857
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 3: So that's the moment that we're all living through. It's

858
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 3: really an incredible moment in US and Western history, European history.

859
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 3: We are ejecting across the board people on the left,

860
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,240
Speaker 3: and they're very scared, and they want to keep power

861
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 3: and they want to retain this ability to continue to

862
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,279
Speaker 3: move forward with their socialists and Marxist experiment. So they

863
00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 3: have to recalibrate for now. And that's what mister Starmer's doing.

864
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,279
Speaker 1: And do you think that's why do you think that

865
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 1: might be their catalysts or the reason why they're escalating

866
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 1: things in Ukraine? You and I are talked briefly about this.

867
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: To escalate a conflict in Ukraine, hope that Russia strikes back,

868
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 1: maybe there's collateral damage in a NATO country to trigger

869
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: our Article five intervention of what the Brits and France

870
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: and certainly the United States and escalated war because there

871
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: are in times of crisis, you know, people of those

872
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 1: nations tend to cling to the leaders of those countries

873
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 1: in a time of conflict. Like you think that might

874
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: be a play. I mean this, this is we're just

875
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 1: wargaming here, right, we don't know that this is true.

876
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: But like, why I keep coming back, why escalate? It's

877
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 1: it's to me, it's it's lose lose for for everybody.

878
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,959
Speaker 3: Well, let's start with this. Look, it's not a conspiracy

879
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 3: to understand that when leaders fear that they are going

880
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,480
Speaker 3: to be pushed out of power, they reach for the

881
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 3: crisis button and they push it again and again. So

882
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 3: they will create a crisis to create a distraction. So

883
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 3: let's just start with that. That is well established in history.

884
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 3: So a B. We now know that the left unquestionably

885
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 3: is losing throughout the European continent and in this country,

886
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 3: So that also is well established that that's not a conspiracy.

887
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,280
Speaker 3: So now we're trying to put together the puzzle pieces

888
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 3: to understand and why would I got like Starmer suddenly

889
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 3: pivot to the right on this issue where the voters

890
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 3: are saying we're with your legal experiment A B. Might

891
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 3: it be that this escalation of Ukraine is part of that,

892
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 3: the distraction, sure, but you know, beyond that, what I

893
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 3: think is very very clear too, is you have the

894
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 3: White White House Brussels. European leaders say that we will

895
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 3: be with Ukraine for as long as it takes. They

896
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 3: put hundreds of billions of dollars, their reputations, their governments

897
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 3: on the line to defend Ukraine. Why because they want,

898
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 3: as we talked about earlier, to degrade Putin's of forces

899
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 3: or actually toss them out of office. But now it

900
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 3: is they who who are getting thrown out of office.

901
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 3: It is they who are the weak ones. And so

902
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 3: of course you could see people in power want to

903
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 3: cling to power for all kinds of reasons, ideology being

904
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 3: one of them. Also just the lust for power as well,

905
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 3: and then of course pride and ego, let's not toss

906
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 3: that out. A lot of people get very prideful and

907
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 3: very very egocentric when they realize that their legacies are

908
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 3: going to be in tatters because they have justified this

909
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 3: war and lost. In addition to Iraq and Afghanistan and

910
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 3: now Ukraine, how many guys at the Pentagon in the

911
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 3: CIA are looking at their legacies over the past thirty

912
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 3: years and realizing they have left this country nothing but debt,

913
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 3: blood and disaster. That is America's foreign policy over the

914
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 3: past thirty years.

915
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. It really is true. And Brian,

916
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 1: this is why I'm okay with a different approach. I mean,

917
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 1: I'm serious. This is why I'm okay with a yeah, yes,

918
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,280
Speaker 1: haxept for one, it's why I'm okay with President Trump

919
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 1: thinking differently about foreign policy. I mean thinking differently as

920
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,920
Speaker 1: part of what brought us the Abraham Accords. I think

921
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 1: that that can be built upon in this next administration.

922
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 1: And to your point about people being you know, these

923
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,760
Speaker 1: leftists being scared that they're not in power, and people

924
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 1: in the CIA and maybe in trench bureaucats wondering about

925
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,359
Speaker 1: their legacy. And did you see this of Michael Hayden. Now,

926
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: this guy, by the way, is a Dukane University graduate.

927
00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: I believe I went to Dukane from my undergrad and

928
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: my master so we share the same alma mater. Unfortunately,

929
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: but here's this dude saying Jack Smith plans to release

930
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:09,720
Speaker 1: the report before Donald Trumps worn in and here's General

931
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:13,840
Speaker 1: Michael Hayden. Please please, please, please please the guys, a

932
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 1: former retired four star general, former director of the NSA,

933
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:22,399
Speaker 1: former director of the CIA. What the hell is wrong?

934
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 1: I mean to me, this guy's is like an utter

935
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: disgrace to the uniform. And he's trying to undermine the

936
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,360
Speaker 1: President Trump's second term before he even gets in office.

937
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 1: That's very clear to me.

938
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 3: This is the same man, by the way, who about

939
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 3: six years ago, seven years ago, compared what we were

940
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 3: doing on the southern border to Dacau and Auschwitz and

941
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 3: the concentration car.

942
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:42,240
Speaker 1: What a freaking moron.

943
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 3: So he's put that on the record than actually trying

944
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 3: to defend a border is the equivalent of Auschwitz. So

945
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 3: that tells you the kind of caliber of the mania is.

946
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:50,880
Speaker 3: Every once in a while, I try to have a

947
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,320
Speaker 3: shred of a little bit of compassion for that man,

948
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 3: only because he had a massive stroke, and so part

949
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,239
Speaker 3: of me wonders, did his brain just get you know,

950
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 3: did he really? I mean, maybe that's true, true, No,

951
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,000
Speaker 3: he did. He suffered a massive stroke. So part of

952
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:06,240
Speaker 3: me wonders, like, is there something not right with this noodle?

953
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 3: I don't know, I maybe That's why I bit my

954
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 3: tongue oftentimes with that man, but not always, because some

955
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 3: of the stuff is so outrageous and so offensive, and

956
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,359
Speaker 3: ultimately it helps to make the argument that the deep

957
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 3: state is real and it's really bad. It is control

958
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,000
Speaker 3: of everything. Because you've got this guy, a former uh,

959
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,440
Speaker 3: you know, senior leader of the Pentagon obviously the NSA

960
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,480
Speaker 3: and the CIA saying some really horrible things, which is

961
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 3: that the American people actually shouldn't get a vote in

962
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,760
Speaker 3: their in their you know, governments, and we should release

963
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 3: reports to damage you know, a press on elect So, yeah,

964
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 3: you're right, it is an awful, awful guy.

965
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 1: These are the guys that I mean again, these aren't

966
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 1: boots on the ground operators. These are the former director

967
00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 1: of the NSA and CIA also signed the Hunter Biden laptops. Uh,

968
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,920
Speaker 1: it was a signatory on the Hunter Biden laptop as

969
00:49:54,960 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 1: this Russian disinformation letter. I mean, Brian, I hope that

970
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 1: the president, newly elected President Trump, goes in there and

971
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 1: just cleans house. And I honestly, my friend, I think

972
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 1: the American people want that as well. I really believe

973
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 1: that the American people want you know, the entrenched bureaucrat,

974
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,880
Speaker 1: the size, the scope, the power of the federal government,

975
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: the administrative state. I think they just want it just

976
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:24,719
Speaker 1: completely routed. That's how I feel. I mean, I think

977
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 1: that's part of the reason why people voted for President

978
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,520
Speaker 1: Trump is that they're sick and tired of business as

979
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 1: usual in Washington, all those I mean, there's a reason

980
00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:37,280
Speaker 1: why Washington, DC is the nation probably the world richest

981
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,759
Speaker 1: zip code. You know, there's so much consolidated power there,

982
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,320
Speaker 1: and I think the American people are over people like Hayden.

983
00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I would argue that. I think at this

984
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 3: point most of us know that, Look, we don't have

985
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:52,320
Speaker 3: the solutions to everything. We just know that right now

986
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 3: things aren't normal. This isn't right. We might not be

987
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 3: able to tell you exactly what it should be, but

988
00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 3: we just remember decades ago when things were better, and

989
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 3: we know that this moment is not right. When we

990
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,319
Speaker 3: are locking up our goods behind pieces of plastic at

991
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 3: stores instead of lacking of criminals, there's something wrong about that.

992
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:10,759
Speaker 3: When there are millions of people who are coming through

993
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:13,320
Speaker 3: our southern border unvetted and then go on to murder

994
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:16,439
Speaker 3: and rape and burglarize people and homes, and the rest

995
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,080
Speaker 3: of it. That's not normal, right. So you know the

996
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:22,720
Speaker 3: COVID pandemic, where we knew that this respiratory virus mostly

997
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 3: targeted the obese, that it was a respiratory virus that

998
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,680
Speaker 3: was about the same fatality rate as the flu, but

999
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 3: yet shut down and destroyed our education system, our economy

1000
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:35,360
Speaker 3: causing profound inflation. That's not right. These public health officiers

1001
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 3: like Fauci, they were wrong. Why is there Why is

1002
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:42,319
Speaker 3: there nothing in terms of consequences for people like him?

1003
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 3: So the American people, I think, are just angry about

1004
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,360
Speaker 3: a lot of things. We might not have as the solutions.

1005
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:50,279
Speaker 3: Maybe don't. We don't have the PhDs with a fancy expertise,

1006
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 3: but we just know that this moment isn't right, and

1007
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 3: we're right, we're correct, And that anger and that outrage,

1008
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 3: I think is really tapping into this new Trump coalition,

1009
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,080
Speaker 3: which really the end of the day, is transcending race

1010
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 3: and sex and sexual orientation, all the rest of it.

1011
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 3: It's about workers, it's about working class, it's about middle

1012
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,240
Speaker 3: class and poor people saying we're done with your wars,

1013
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 3: We're done with your crappy inflation and your your terrible leadership.

1014
00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 3: We note that this isn't normal.

1015
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 1: We want a different American man, well said, I couldn't

1016
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,759
Speaker 1: agree with you. More. Tell everybody where they can find you,

1017
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,280

Speaker 3: Well, it's a different version, says right country, not right Report.

1021
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:36,800

Speaker 7: Tree Farm, where the Cartner family has been growing trees

1076

Speaker 7: for more than sixty years, and their farm is nestled

1077
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:26,720
Speaker 7: in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, a region

1078
00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 7: that was recently devastated by Hurricane Helene. The Cartner family

1079
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:37,439
Speaker 7: lost thousands of trees in the storm, but this one

1080
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:43,920
Speaker 7: remains standing and they named it Tremendous for the extraordinary

1081
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 7: hope that it represents. It's an honor to be here

1082
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:52,760
Speaker 7: today with Congresswoman Virginia Fox as well as members.

1083
00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:58,200
Speaker 1: Okay, so no bullshit here, folks. The Biden administration, I

1084
00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,720
Speaker 1: don't know what the hell the this isn't saying, but listen,

1085
00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 1: the Biden administration thought it would be a good idea

1086
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:09,319
Speaker 1: to take one of the last standing remaining trees from

1087
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,839
Speaker 1: this area of North Carolina and cut it down and

1088
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: use it for their Christmas tree. So if you the message,

1089
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 1: if you remain strong standing after a tragedy, the Bidens

1090
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:26,320
Speaker 1: will make sure that you don't, that you don't succeed.

1091
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 1: So it's probably I guess it's fitting that the Bidens

1092
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,799
Speaker 1: take this beautiful, resilient thing and chop it down, use

1093
00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:37,920
Speaker 1: it for their own benefit, and toss the remainder away

1094
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:40,719
Speaker 1: in the trash when they're all done. It's not exactly

1095
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 1: how they've treated America. I mean, it's kind of unbelievable.

1096
00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 1: Right Anyways, folks, I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
