1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,920 Speaker 1: Great warm. 2 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 2: Thank you so much. 3 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:03,040 Speaker 3: Eric. 4 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 4: Always an honor to join you, and always an honor 5 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,320 Speaker 4: to join you, guys, warroom, Polse, Let's bring the show 6 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 4: and we have an epical and it's Natalie Winter's host today. 7 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 2: Let's start it. I know the President spoke for nearly 8 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 2: an hour. 9 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 5: What are the big headlines there? Well, he talked about 10 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,799 Speaker 5: a lot of issues, certainly a focus on the economics, 11 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 5: but there are some diplomatic headlines that are coming out 12 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 5: of his remarks as well. He talked about the United 13 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 5: States lifting sanctions on Syria. You, of course remember the 14 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 5: former leader there, Bashar al Assad, left the country and 15 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 5: there is a new leader in place, and of course 16 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 5: the past atrocities carried out by Bashir al Assad were 17 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 5: part of the reason that those sanctions were put in place. 18 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 5: The presidents saying he intends to lift those that received 19 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 5: a rousing response here in Saudi Arabia. 20 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 2: That's part of it. 21 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 5: He also had a message for Iran obviously that is 22 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 5: of stretch major importance to Saudi Arabia as well as 23 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 5: the United States. Certainly, Israel has an important interest there 24 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 5: and the US has been trying to get to a 25 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 5: point where there is a non nuclear state, trying to 26 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 5: tamp down on the ambitions within Iran to advance to 27 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 5: having a weapon, something the US says they cannot have, 28 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 5: even though they have an active program to enrich uranium 29 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 5: and to try to bring about the science to get 30 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 5: them there. And the President had a message for the 31 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 5: people of Iran and what he calls a different path 32 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 5: that they could take. 33 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 3: Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, but with that set, 34 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 3: Iran can have a much brighter future, but will never 35 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: allow America and as allies, to be threatened with terrorism 36 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: or nuclear attack. The choices theirs to make. We really 37 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 3: want them to be a successful country. We want them 38 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 3: to be a wonderful, safe, great country, but they cannot have. 39 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 2: A nuclear weapon. 40 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 3: This is an offer that will not last forever. The 41 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 3: time is right now for them to choose. 42 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 6: Right now. 43 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 3: We don't have a lot of time to wait. 44 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 5: The President putting pressure on the leadership in Iran. Those 45 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 5: are the diplomatic notes we've been hearing in what for 46 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 5: much of the early part of this day was structured 47 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 5: and scheduled to be about economic development the United States, 48 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 5: I mean companies that would do investment here in Saudi 49 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 5: Arabia and Saudi Arabia, buying military equipment and making investments 50 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 5: in the United States, things that the president feels comfortable 51 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 5: talking about, trying to be that deal maker. And certainly 52 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 5: another notable thing was outside the United States quite critical 53 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 5: of Joe Biden. We hear him criticize Joe Biden often, 54 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 5: but to do it outside the United States is certainly notable. 55 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 2: This is the final screen of a dying regime. 56 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 7: Pray for our enemies because we're going to medieval on 57 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 7: these people. 58 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 2: You've not got a free shot. 59 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 8: All these networks lying about the people, the people have 60 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 8: had a belly full of it. 61 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: I know you don't like hearing that. 62 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 6: I know you tried to do everything in the world 63 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 6: to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. 64 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 2: It's going to happen. 65 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 6: And where do people like that go to share the 66 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 6: big line? Mega media? 67 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 4: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of 68 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 4: these people had a conscience. 69 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 2: Ask yourself, what is my test and what is my purpose? 70 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: If that answer is to save my country, this country 71 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 3: will be saved. 72 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 6: War Room, you use your host Stephen k Maan. 73 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 2: Just a historic day. 74 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 4: Tuesday May thirteenth, in the Year of Our Lord twenty 75 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 4: twenty five. It's Natalie Winter's hosting war Room today. As 76 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 4: I always say, don't go anywhere. Luckily, with President Trunk 77 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 4: back in office, we always have a packed show, though 78 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 4: actually for good reasons, not for the reasons we used 79 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 4: to have to pack them in under Joe Biden. 80 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: No honorific title. 81 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 4: There, you saw that cold open This is what it's 82 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 4: like to be respected by the rest of the world. 83 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: Again. 84 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 4: I guess they always say what it's better to be 85 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 4: feared than loved. I don't think Joe Biden even had 86 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 4: the chance to have either. I think, though, the reception 87 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,799 Speaker 4: that President Trump has received from the Saddies is truly 88 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 4: indicative a man who is what on trial for like 89 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 4: eighteen different felonies, would be sitting in prison in Kamala 90 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 4: Harris one. He now gets a better reception, frankly than 91 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 4: Democrats gave him at the State of the Union. I 92 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 4: saw more American flags during today's processions than I think 93 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 4: I saw maybe at even the fake Larpie. 94 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: DNC they had this year. 95 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 4: I think the only time we ever saw that level 96 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 4: of organized and well thought through reception really was from 97 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 4: Joe Biden. Greeting illegal AI millions at the southern border. 98 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 4: You guys, I'm sure have seen the split screen images 99 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 4: of what Joe Biden received versus what President Trump received 100 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 4: from the Saudis, which are no perfect vessels, shall we say. 101 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 4: Obviously a lot to get into there, which we're going 102 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 4: to get into throughout this show, but there is a small, well, 103 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 4: I guess, actually massive victory. The first federal judge a 104 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 4: Trump appointee. 105 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: It's funny how when it's a. 106 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 4: Trump appointee oftentimes the outcomes seem to be a little different. 107 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 2: And actually, I don't. 108 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 4: Know this bizarre word constitutional, but ruling that President Trump 109 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 4: can actually invoke the Alien Enemies Act to deport trend 110 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 4: dea Ragua members massive win. We've seen I think all 111 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 4: the sort of Democrat or more established Republican appointed justices 112 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 4: essentially rebuke that idea. So this is quite I think powerful. 113 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 4: We'll see how it shakes out. But you know, here 114 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 4: in the war whom we're not about victory parties. We 115 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 4: are about action, action, action and trying to upend the 116 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 4: administrative state. And I guess their new strange bedfellow, the 117 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 4: new odd couple that is the tech Bros, Which we saw, 118 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 4: I think on full display with their quirkiness in Saudi Arabia. 119 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: I know David Sachs has been over I think in 120 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: the UAE. 121 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 4: For a while, striking a lot of shall we say, 122 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 4: curious deals which I want to drill into. Maybe it's 123 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 4: confirmation bias, or maybe it's genuinely a as we call it. 124 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 2: A NATSEC threat. I would put my money on the ladder. 125 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 4: But particularly when it comes to semiconductors and chips. Obviously 126 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 4: there was what six hundred billion plus worth of announcements 127 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 4: of investments released today between the Saudis and the United States. 128 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 4: But one vertical that is particularly concerning that has a 129 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 4: lot of China Hawks, which I broadly consider myself. 130 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: To be and I'm sure you guys do. 131 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 4: Too, concerned, is the sharing of advanced semiconductor ships stuff 132 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 4: in kind of that realm of the technological sphere with 133 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 4: the Saudis and with the Ammoradis, particularly with firms that 134 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 4: have deep ties to the Chinese Communist Party. In the 135 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 4: case of the Emmaradi firm, I believe it's G forty two. 136 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: They actually used to. 137 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 4: Work with Huawei, which you may recall was the sanctioned 138 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 4: if not just outright blacklisted Chinese essentially military proxy telecommunications firm, 139 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 4: very advanced in the whole five G race. Really, I 140 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 4: think illustrative of the military civil fusion that you see 141 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 4: going on in China. How these companies are used as 142 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 4: effectively in some cases just outright or sometimes more clandestinely, 143 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 4: but as state owned assets, whether it's intellectual property theft 144 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 4: or sometimes just outright espionage. But these are the kind 145 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 4: of firms that are now likely going to receive I 146 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 4: think in some cases potentially potentially hundreds of thousands of 147 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 4: these highly sensitive chips, which, like we said, have you know, 148 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 4: there's been case after case, indictment after in Diamond of 149 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 4: Chinese nationals coming overseas or trying to pull Western researchers 150 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 4: over to gain access to this technology. This is right 151 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 4: what the Hold Made in China twenty twenty five initiative 152 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 4: really is about. 153 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 2: Right. 154 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 4: High tech is the way that they are attempting to 155 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 4: rule the world. The crux of that, of course, I think, 156 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 4: being Taiwan. So it seems rather I would pause, it 157 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 4: curious that all these tech bros are sort of trying to, 158 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 4: I think, undermine what President Trump is doing in terms 159 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 4: of you know whether it's the most favored nation status 160 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 4: when it comes to China, and really reasserting fair trade, 161 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 4: not just free trade, but that we'd be working to 162 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 4: bolster and embolden the Chinese Communist Party, particularly on the 163 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 4: technological front. And I guess we'll return to war room tradition, 164 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 4: our roots of being. What is it, I think a 165 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 4: conversion therapy for rhinos. I should trademark that when I 166 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 4: stand by that, But unfortunately Congressional Republicans we can toss 167 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 4: the tweet up on screen, really have nothing to say 168 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 4: about this except one three tweet thread and a strongly 169 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 4: worded letter I guess old habits die hard from the 170 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 4: Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, the chairman of it. 171 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: I want to read you a quote. It's not all 172 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 4: that fire breathing quote. The US must lead the world 173 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 4: in AI technology, but we must do it securely. The 174 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 4: CCP is actively seeking indirect access to our top tech. 175 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 2: Okay, I agree with. 176 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 4: That deals like this requires scrutiny and verifiable guardrails. We 177 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 4: raised concerns about G forty two last year. That's the 178 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 4: Amorati firm for this very reason, and we need safeguards 179 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 4: in place before more agreements move forward. Now, if only 180 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 4: I knew of people or a little body called the 181 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 4: United States Congress that I don't know, also right now 182 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 4: happens to be negotiating stuff that directly interplays with all 183 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 4: of this. 184 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 2: If only Chairman Mullin Yar I don't know, looked in 185 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 2: the mirror. 186 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 4: I don't know about you, guys, but I'm getting pretty 187 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 4: sick and tired of the shall we say, pandemic of passive. 188 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 2: Voice with the Republican Party. 189 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 4: It seems to to plague them where all they can 190 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 4: do is tweet about these problems and put out strongly 191 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 4: worded letters and statements, call a freakin hearing. No, are 192 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 4: you guys too busy canceling votes on codifying the Doge 193 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 4: cuts or canceling the hearings on the radical judges. 194 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: Maybe that's what's taking up all your time, right and your. 195 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 4: Kirk certainly can't say that it's because you've been sending 196 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 4: what is it, a bunch of legislation over President Trump 197 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 4: to sign into law. Because I have my facts straight, 198 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 4: you guys have sent fewer bills to President Trump than 199 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 4: any Congress over the last seventy years. 200 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 2: Now, you know we always bring. 201 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 4: The receipts, shall we say, And I want to bring 202 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 4: a very specific receipt in terms of this Select Committee 203 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 4: on the Chinese Communist Party, which, as far as I'm concerned, 204 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 4: was set up by Mike Gallagher only so he could 205 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 4: use it as a stepping stone to go work at 206 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 4: Pallenteer that doesn't quite reak of understanding the threat of 207 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 4: the Chinese Communist Party. 208 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 2: He bailed out, he said, I'll go take my nice check. 209 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 4: So now the new chairman I mentioned no name backbenchers 210 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 4: who are on this committee, though, Let's make one of 211 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 4: them famous, right now, Darren Lehood of Illinois. So get 212 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 4: this straight. The guy who is sitting on this committee 213 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 4: that thinks that it's okay to just put out tweets 214 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 4: to counter the Chinese Communist Party and a bunch of weak, 215 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 4: strongly worded letters that my reporting at nineteen was probably 216 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 4: more forceful than well, this guy actually met with various 217 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 4: Chinese Communist Party influence groups, particularly in twenty twenty two. 218 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 4: You guys have heard, I'm sure about the Chinese Communist 219 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 4: Party trying to expand control over the United States by 220 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 4: buying up farmland, and one of the primary. 221 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 2: Conduits through which they've done. 222 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 4: This is a group called the US China Heartland Association 223 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 4: in conjunction with two United Front Work Department groups known 224 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 4: as the China United States Exchange Foundation and the Chinese 225 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 4: People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries. Quite a mouthful, 226 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 4: quite innocuous. Nothing could be further from the truth. These 227 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 4: are hardcore Marxist organizations that work using a bill and 228 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 4: we'll to billion dollar budget from Beijing to co opt, subvert, 229 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 4: neutralize Western politician and Western elites to peddle the line 230 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 4: of Beijing. So, mister sorry Congressman LaHood, who's supposed to 231 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 4: be so tough on the Chinese Communist Party, he actually 232 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 4: spoke at one of their events in twenty twenty two 233 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 4: helping the Chinese Communist Party and their assets strategize how 234 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 4: they could better infiltrate American farmland because maybe we could 235 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 4: find some ways to collaborate. I don't know about you, 236 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 4: but collaboration is probably one of those words like comprehensive 237 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 4: immigration reform, unity Ukraine AID where basically, anytime I hear it, 238 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,359 Speaker 4: especially in the context of the Chinese. 239 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 2: Communist Party, I think that's called a hard no and 240 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 2: This group is also intricately linked with Bill Gates. 241 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 4: So these are the people who are going to be 242 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 4: so tough, so tough on the Chinese Communist Party, busy 243 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 4: helping them strategize how to buy your farmland. Right, it's 244 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 4: the art of the deal that's President Trump and hardliners 245 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 4: like Peter Navarro formerly Leitheiser now Jameson Greer versus the 246 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 4: art of war and incumbent with that is the intense 247 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 4: and elaborate compromise of elites like Congressman Darren the Hood 248 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 4: who when we actually have a national security threat where 249 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 4: I actually think some congressional pushback, probing, if not outright 250 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 4: committee hearings, would be very very justified in the case 251 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 4: of getting ready to essentially turn over hundreds of thousands 252 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 4: of highly sensitive chips just because David Zachs and a 253 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 4: couple of tech bros want to make. 254 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 2: A quick buck. 255 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 4: Where are they, I guess Darren's too busy helping lecture 256 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 4: the Chinese Communist Party how they can buy up that 257 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 4: plot of land next to your house so they can, 258 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 4: I don't know, better grow crops. That's the euphemistic spin 259 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 4: in the name of collaboration. Where has collaboration gotten us 260 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 4: what is it, one hundred and forty five percent tariffs 261 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 4: only because they totally renegged on the Phase one deal 262 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 4: that was already a skinny deal, because they refused to 263 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 4: do anything actually substantive, because they wouldn't sign and agree 264 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 4: that they wouldn't stop stealing intellectual property, devaluing the dollar 265 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 4: using pseudo dormant state owned enterprises. I mean, good on them, 266 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 4: I guess compromise the guy who's serving on the committee 267 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 4: to take you on. 268 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 2: You get to play judge jury. 269 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 4: An executioner, and I guess, speaking of judges, I would 270 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 4: say I'm pretty curious why all of these judges, whose. 271 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 2: Spouses oftentimes somehow conveniently end up on. 272 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 4: The paril of the Chinese Communist Party two, seem to 273 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 4: be neutering and nullifying President Trump's agenda too. We've got 274 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 4: a lot to get to, whether it's the copyright law. 275 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 4: We're gonna drill down on this with an AI expert. 276 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 2: It's not just the war room that's sounding the red alarms. 277 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 4: A lot of people are, though I guess congressional Republicans aren't. 278 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: But I guess what's new. They're too busy. 279 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 4: I don't know, increasing the deficit by like twenty trillion dollars. 280 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 2: We'll be right back after this short break. 281 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 6: Use your host, Stephen k Man. 282 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 2: Welcome back to the war Room. 283 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 4: We are going to get into the AI stuff more 284 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 4: on the China side of things. But I want to 285 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 4: get into something that I know we've had Mike Davis 286 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 4: on a lot to cover, which is what's been going 287 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 4: down at the copyright office, sort of the tussel. 288 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 2: That's a euphimistic way to put it that's been. 289 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 4: Going on, and like all things that maybe aren't super 290 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 4: Maga or maybe you're just like mag at face value, 291 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 4: all roads kind of always lead to the tech bros. 292 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 4: Perhaps a reductive way to put it, but I think 293 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 4: war Room stands by that being the thesis. I am 294 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 4: honored to bring on Professor Jonathan Bartnett, who is one 295 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 4: of I thinks the leaders in the field when it 296 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 4: comes to sort of the copyright stuff. How the AI 297 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 4: all sort of interplays in that. But I wanted you 298 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 4: to kind of bring us up to speed. Like I said, 299 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 4: we've had Mike Davis on the show a lot talking 300 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 4: about this. You know, this goes back they what sort 301 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 4: of want to be able to steal everyone's IP more 302 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 4: or less for profit. Then they'd kind of did a 303 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 4: hostile takeover, maybe under valid circumstances of the Copyright Office. 304 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 4: And then there's some interesting legislation that's been pushed forth, 305 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 4: which we'll get into, But can you just sort of 306 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 4: explain the threat and sort of the different factions in 307 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 4: this fight and what our audience really needs to understand 308 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 4: about this impending kind of copyright fight. 309 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and it's great to be here today. 310 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 8: This is an age old tension and fight between the 311 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 8: interests of content and tech, and roughly since the mid 312 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 8: two thousands all the way through the present, pretty much 313 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 8: wherever you look the law and the courts in Congress, 314 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 8: whether by acting or not acting, it's favored the interests 315 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 8: of tech over content. And what we've ended up with, 316 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 8: especially with the fair use exemption, which has grown through 317 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 8: proportions that we haven't historically ever had in this country, 318 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 8: is an ecosystem that systematically favors platforms that aggregate content 319 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 8: over individuals, small firms, production companies that produce that content. 320 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 8: It's really hard to reconcile that state of affairs with 321 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 8: our founder's vision of the copyright as set forth directly 322 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 8: in the constitution. 323 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 4: So is the big threat with this more so from 324 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 4: a data collection perspective where our audience could see, you know, 325 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 4: whatever they've created, or you either directly or indirectly end 326 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 4: up in the hands of corporations or just big tech 327 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 4: firms that they probably don't want it to be in. 328 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 4: Or is there, you know, sort of picking up on 329 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 4: what I was talking about in the last segment, the 330 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 4: national security threat where you see foreign countries, China or 331 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 4: otherwise sort of getting involved in this. Is it sort 332 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 4: of a multi pronged threat, or is it more so 333 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 4: just oh, you should be able to own what you create. 334 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 8: I think there's two things happening there, and you touched 335 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 8: on both of them. Going again right back to the 336 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 8: founders of what was the point of the copyright. It 337 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 8: was to invest the individual with a propyright that allows 338 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 8: them to bargain for the fair value of their creation 339 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 8: and a creative market. When we can copyright, you take 340 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 8: away that bargaining power. What you're doing is what I 341 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,719 Speaker 8: like to call a reverse Robinhood effect. You shift wealth 342 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 8: away from individuals and smaller entities that are producing content. 343 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 8: You're transferring that over to some of the largest corporations 344 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 8: in the world. That's both inefficient economically and it's unfair ethically. 345 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 8: On the China angle, we should keep in mind that 346 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 8: while we have a trade deficit in goods versus the 347 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 8: rest of the world, including China, we have a massive 348 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 8: IP surplus versus the rest of the world. That's our 349 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 8: core advantage, and therefore it's in a US national interest 350 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 8: US geopolitical leadership to bolster our IP right system rather 351 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 8: than weaken it as we've been doing. 352 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 2: And this has been sort of an ongoing debate. 353 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 4: You wrote a great book on it, The Big Steel Ideology, 354 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 4: Interest and the Undoing of Intellectual property. 355 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 2: But why is this sort of re emerging now? 356 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's coming up now, just as it came up 357 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 8: at the dawn of the Internet. Something I talk about 358 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 8: in my book is platforms such as YouTube. You've got 359 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 8: a new technology makes it easy to take content without 360 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 8: paying for it. There's pressure on courts, pressure on legislators 361 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 8: to favor that business model. But we should take lessons 362 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 8: from the way the digital content markets have evolved and 363 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 8: have matured. If you take the streaming platforms today, they 364 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 8: all rely on technologies that regulate access and that's a 365 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 8: good thing because it allows markets to form, allows prices 366 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 8: to be attached to content, and ultimately delivers remuneration back 367 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 8: to the individuals and the smaller entities that have produced 368 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 8: that content. There's no reason to revisit this debate again 369 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:13,360 Speaker 8: in the AI ecosystem. It's the same question, and what 370 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 8: we should be looking for is an equitable legal regime 371 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 8: that enables markets to form licensing solutions that will deliver 372 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 8: value to creators without unduly impeding the growth of AI 373 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 8: platforms and models and apps. 374 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 2: So can you sort of flush out what a world, 375 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 2: what the world would. 376 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 4: Look like if they were, you know, they being whatever 377 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 4: we call them. 378 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: The tech bros. 379 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 4: Maybe that's too cutesia term, much like deep state is 380 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 4: for the administrative state. 381 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 2: But if they were to get what they want or whoever. 382 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 4: Within the Trump administration sort of orchestrated, you know, the 383 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 4: removal of some people from the Copyright Office, which for 384 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 4: valid reason, they were kind of far left crazy. 385 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 2: Giving Lizzo the flute probably. 386 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 4: Not not a good idea, but I think there definitely 387 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 4: were alterior motives there is. I think both of those 388 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 4: officials had sort of expressed the idea that maybe they 389 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 4: wanted to stand up for the copyright privileges and protections 390 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 4: of Americans. 391 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 2: But if they're able to sort of. 392 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 4: Just steamroll over this office and continue this, what does. 393 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 2: That mean for our audience? What does that world ultimately 394 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 2: look like? 395 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 8: That's going to be a world where the value generated 396 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 8: by content will flow to a relatively small number of platforms, 397 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 8: as opposed to a world in which that value is 398 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 8: far more widely distributed among the far more numerous creators 399 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 8: and individuals and entities that contribute to making content, promoting content, 400 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 8: and distributing content. The AI ecosystem can thrive under a 401 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 8: robust copyright regime with adaptations that account for the specifics 402 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 8: of AI ecosystems, But there's no reason to run roughshot 403 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 8: over the property rights of creators. Create property rights and 404 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 8: creative markets are necessary to sustain markets, just as they 405 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 8: are in any other kind of market that we're familiar with. 406 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 4: Sounds like kind of the digital equivalent of you'll own 407 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 4: nothing and you'll be happy. Last question before I let 408 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 4: you go, the Committees on Energy and Commerce. It was 409 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 4: sort of not leaked, but you know, came out today 410 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 4: and caused I think a bit of an outrage online. 411 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 4: They were debating what's called the Artificial Intelligence and Information 412 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 4: Technology Modernization Initiative, and I want to just read a 413 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 4: section for you. I'm just curious to get your sort 414 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 4: of top line assessment. But one of the sub sections 415 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 4: says that quote no state or political subdivision may enforce 416 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 4: any law or regulation regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence systems, 417 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 4: or automated decision systems during the tenure period beginning on 418 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 4: the date of. 419 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 2: The enactment of this Act. 420 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 4: In other words, it kind of sounds like they want 421 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 4: a tenure amnesty. I don't like anytime we were at 422 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 4: amnesty said on Capitol Hill. But I think especially in 423 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 4: the field of AI, what's your sort of take on 424 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 4: maybe just more broadly, you know who exactly is pushing 425 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 4: for this, just sort of las a fair you know, 426 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 4: own goal, open goal, shots or shots on goal for 427 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 4: the kind of AI community. 428 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm not specifically familiar with with what transpired today, 429 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 8: but that language, that language is most likely reflecting the 430 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 8: vision coming out of the White House, David Sachs in particular, 431 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 8: which I think makes sense, which is a light touch 432 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 8: approach to the AI ecosystem, allowing the US market to 433 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 8: grow organically and giving us an advantage over the approach 434 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 8: that's been taken in the European Union, in particular, with 435 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 8: which is a top down approach or regulation heavy approach 436 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 8: that's typical of the European approach. 437 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 2: And you can. 438 00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 8: Easily compare the difference between the innovation performance in Europe, 439 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 8: which is weak, heavy regulation, and the US approach, which 440 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 8: is lighter on regulation, and we shine in terms of innovation. 441 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 8: And I think that's what you're seeing in that language 442 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 8: is reflecting the messaging coming out of the White House. 443 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 2: And I think as a. 444 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 8: General matter, if we want to have ANAI ecosystem that 445 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 8: is a world leader, I think that vision coming out 446 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 8: of the White House is the right one. 447 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 2: John, thank you so much for joining us. 448 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 4: If people want to follow you, stay up to date 449 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 4: with everything you're working on, and most importantly get the book, 450 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 4: really read up on it because it's an important kind 451 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 4: of don't sleep on it, it's an important topic. 452 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 2: Where can they go to do all that? Sure? 453 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 8: The book is most easily available through the Amazon or 454 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 8: Barnes and Noble websites, or directly from the publisher Oxford University, 455 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 8: and links are also available through my LinkedIn page. 456 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 2: Thanks very much to thank you sir for joining us. 457 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 2: We'll have you back on war imposse. 458 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 4: While you're at it, make sure you checking out birrdical 459 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 4: dot com, slash ban and texting ban into nine eight 460 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 4: nine eight nine eight. Giving the guys over there a 461 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 4: call an email, download the books. 462 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: You know the drill. 463 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 4: By the way, I just have to add you guys know, 464 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 4: I'm what the probably infamous face of the new media initiative. 465 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: I love it. 466 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 4: There's all this coverage now about how you know, oh 467 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 4: we should have I don't know, reported that Joe Biden 468 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 4: was going to have to use a wheelchair. 469 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 2: No shade to wheelchairs. 470 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 4: But now the White House Correspondent Association is melting down 471 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 4: that some of their reporters were kicked off of Air 472 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 4: Force one or can't do the wire service. 473 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 2: I know about you, guys. I'll be able to go 474 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 2: on without having. 475 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 4: Ap or Reuter's poorly written, probably propaganda written wires influencing 476 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 4: my coverage. But one of my favorite quotes from their 477 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 4: statement was quote they reliably covered every president for decades 478 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 4: for the millions of Americans who depend on their reporting 479 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 4: every day. 480 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: Talk about crisis acting and stolen valor. 481 00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 4: I think you'd be hard pressed to find I don't know, 482 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 4: maybe hundreds of thousands of Americans who take anything that 483 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 4: the Aper v Reuters says seriously. But let's get to 484 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 4: the crux of what they're doing with this Joe Biden 485 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 4: limited hangout. It was never about the fact that the 486 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 4: press corps covered up for his age. That's what they 487 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 4: want you to think is the biggest scandal of the 488 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 4: Biden regime. No, it's because if you actually had to 489 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 4: understand what this regime did, from the southern border, the invasion, 490 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 4: the Green New Deal, Afghanistan, take your pick any issue, 491 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 4: it's more palatable from their eyes for you to have 492 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 4: you think that Joe Biden was out to lunch and 493 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 4: this was all just a result really of the age 494 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 4: old question we've always asked here in the warm right 495 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 4: intentional verse and competence. It was just in competence he 496 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 4: was dead, I don't I think essentially dead was what 497 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 4: I told CNN. But no, it was all intentional and 498 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 4: it was all by design. And I hope Congressional Republicans would, 499 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 4: I don't know, do something for once and hold some 500 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 4: hearings to try to figure out who I don't know 501 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 4: orchestrated the invasion of the southern border. Is that too 502 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 4: much to ask? Stop tweeting about it and actually do something. 503 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 6: You can use your whole Stephen k back. 504 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 4: Welcome back to the war room, where I think we 505 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 4: have always pushed back on the idea that it is 506 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,719 Speaker 4: akin to the first law of thermodynamics, that the Chinese 507 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 4: Communist Party is going to rise, that there is some 508 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 4: fucidities that you know, esque trap going on here. I 509 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 4: think that that rise of China, you know, we always say, 510 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 4: has not occurred in a vacuum, and has it occurred 511 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 4: at the hands if not outright, I think. 512 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 2: Sellout, although I think that's too nice a term. 513 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 4: It's not just elite merger or ratherly capture, it's elite merger. 514 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 4: I think between the United States or the Western were 515 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 4: broadly in the Chinese Communist Party. But it's happened because 516 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 4: they've been buttressed and really I think, able to ascend geopolitically, financially, 517 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 4: take your pick, because American elites have sold out to them, 518 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 4: or they've just stolen the ip theF take your pick. 519 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 2: It's all bad. They get away with it. 520 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 4: But someone who is far more of an expert on me. 521 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 4: You know, I could rattle on about the United Front 522 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 4: Work Department for days. Is one day I will be 523 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 4: able to do that again. Is Isaac Stonefish, who is 524 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 4: the CEO of Strategy Risks, a kind of consulting firm 525 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 4: that ranks companies on their exposure to China. 526 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 2: You're all over the media. 527 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 4: I think you probably won't take offense if I call 528 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 4: you a China hawk, but I wanted to have you 529 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 4: on to talk about what is going on with these chips, 530 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 4: the new deal that I think is sort of already underway. 531 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 4: Your overall assessment of the national security risks that could 532 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 4: potentially be posed by sending over in some cases hundreds 533 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 4: of thousands of chips Navidia or otherwise to the Saudis, 534 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 4: to the Amoradis, and eventually maybe even the Chinese Communist Party. 535 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 9: There's a very worrying deal that's being discussed and possibly 536 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 9: even going to go through as early as this week 537 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 9: that will send hundreds of thousands of Nvidia cutting edge 538 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 9: chips to companies that have ties not only to the 539 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 9: Saudi and Amoradi governments, but also to the Chinese Communist 540 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 9: Party and the problems are multifold two that I'll point 541 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 9: out right now. One is the idea that when you 542 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 9: are sending cutting edge technology to the Saudi and Amoradi government, 543 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 9: we have very little guarantee that those two governments aren't 544 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 9: sharing those with the Communist Party. And then this particular 545 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 9: entity G forty two does have problematic ties to the 546 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 9: Communist Party. 547 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 2: And walk us through G forty two. 548 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 4: I think they were formerly working with Huawei, then they 549 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 4: allegedly abandoned it and favors they could deal with Microsoft, 550 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 4: which I would argue is almost equally artily controlled by 551 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 4: the Chinese Communist Party. But give us a sort of 552 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 4: a sense of the landscape within the chip space, right, 553 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 4: A lot of these companies are already at face value sort. 554 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 2: Of heavily exposed to the PRC. 555 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 9: The problem with G forty two is twofold. One is 556 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 9: the exposure that we know about the why are China 557 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 9: and Excellent Publication did a great report on that company's 558 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,959 Speaker 9: ties to the Communist Party. The Select Committee has amplified 559 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 9: those concerns and the ties to Huawei to the Party, 560 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 9: possibly to the People's Liberation Army, which is you know 561 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 9: as the armed wing of the Communist Party. We know 562 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 9: some of those, there's so much that we don't know. 563 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 9: And so the problem with this is here is this 564 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 9: opaque corporate structure that has entities in China. Are we 565 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 9: comfortable giving them all of this access? And the deal 566 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 9: with Microsoft that you pointed out was Microsoft tried to 567 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 9: convince the US government that they would be trusted hands 568 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 9: in working with G forty two. And I got to say, politely, 569 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 9: that raises a lot of questions. 570 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 4: It seems like, you know, and I think it's probably 571 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 4: been at the forefront of everyone's mind with a debate 572 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 4: going on about the tariffs. 573 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 2: Right. 574 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 4: Obviously intellectual property theft, but this is almost a weird 575 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 4: form of like consensual intellectual property theft where it's maybe 576 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 4: like delayed a few years or you know, through maybe 577 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 4: one Internet are. 578 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 2: It's somehow going to end up in the hands of 579 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 2: the Chinese Communist Party. 580 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 4: I'm curious from your perspective, having you know, analyze so 581 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,239 Speaker 4: many companies and just sort of see deals like this 582 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 4: play out time and time again in your experience, what 583 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 4: are sort of the motivating factors, whether it's from a 584 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 4: company or even country perspective, to pursue deals like this, 585 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 4: which are you know, not advantageous to America's national security? 586 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 4: Is this something where it's just a difference in ideology, 587 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 4: like you know, the tech bro faction, the David's acts 588 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 4: of the world who are pushing this just maybe don't 589 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 4: view the Chinese as much of a threat as maybe 590 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 4: we do. 591 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 2: Here in the worm ors. 592 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 4: You know, you your firm deal, or is it something 593 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 4: more nefarious where you think a lot of people who 594 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 4: are tied up in this deal there's room for you know, 595 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 4: actual compromise or blackmail or more traditional kind of methods 596 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 4: of you know, PRC, infiltration or espionage. 597 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,479 Speaker 9: Great question one is short term thinking that is common 598 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 9: in boardrooms where they think, okay, how do I handle 599 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 9: this for Q three K four as opposed to thinking 600 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 9: ahead in several years. Second is an inability to price 601 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 9: X realities, even within an own firm, So thinking that, oh, great, 602 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 9: I'm going to do this deal. It's going to bring 603 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 9: in three four hundred million dollars of revenue, but it's 604 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 9: going to hurt our firm overall because it's going to 605 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 9: give the Chinese access to cutting edge IP. Another one 606 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 9: is this misguided, it just quixotic view that the Communist 607 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 9: Party does not want to steal US technology is not 608 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 9: in a competition, and arguably something even more dire with 609 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 9: the United States and this sort of kumbaya we can 610 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 9: all get along and dance together happily type of view 611 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 9: that you still see sometimes among companies, and so my 612 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 9: worry with many major US corporations, especially those in cutting 613 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 9: edge technology, is the sense that if it's not banned 614 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 9: explicitly by law, we're going to find a way to 615 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 9: do it with China or with other governments. And there's 616 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 9: also this this transitive property there the oh, maybe we 617 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 9: can't sell directly to the people's abration army, but we 618 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 9: can sell to an entity that would give it to 619 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 9: the people's libration army, and that, in my mind, is 620 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 9: also quite problematic. 621 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 2: It also seems sort. 622 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 4: Of like a for lack of a better word, like 623 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 4: a negating almost foil or counter to what I think 624 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 4: TSMC did here right by trying to make us more 625 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 4: aligned and dependent. 626 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 2: Stop the intellectual property theft. 627 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 4: Can you maybe explain to our audience why these chips 628 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 4: just you know from the get go are so important 629 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 4: and sort of the dual use technology, the military civil fusion, 630 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 4: how this isn't just you know, they want it for 631 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 4: their toasters or advanced electronics. There's nefarious applications that the 632 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 4: Chinese are seeking these ships for. 633 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 9: Absolutely, and there's plenty of people have a much more 634 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 9: sophisticated understanding of the underpinning technology. 635 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: I'll say the chips. 636 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 9: You could see them as building blocks for AI or 637 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 9: what companies need to build cutting edged AI models. And 638 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 9: the problem with the Communist Party having that, again twofold 639 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 9: one is it allows for them to compete or beat 640 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 9: the United States in the global AI race. 641 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 2: So many implications on that. 642 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,879 Speaker 9: And the second is, as you said, the very dual 643 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 9: use in nature of these chips and this technology. And 644 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 9: this is not only about human rights abuses in China, 645 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 9: the ability to build better prisons and better monitoring systems 646 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 9: through AI, but also all of the military implications. And 647 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 9: again here's where the links between the Communist Party and 648 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 9: the military are very important. The PLA is the armed 649 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,240 Speaker 9: wing of the Communist Party. It's a very different system 650 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 9: than we have here. So civil military fusion, where say 651 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 9: companies like Tencent or Ali Baba, which aren't officially state 652 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 9: owned work with the military is one thing, but every 653 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 9: Chinese SOE is under the same family as the Communist Party, 654 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 9: and so it's already much more fused. And I worry 655 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 9: that people will say, oh, I'm worried about say Bank 656 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 9: of China or ICBC or these other Chinese companies and 657 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 9: their links to the Party in the military. Well, they're 658 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 9: already part of the party in the military, and so 659 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 9: we have to understand that from the get go. 660 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 2: And just last question before we let you go. 661 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 4: Do you see any bright spots from a regulatory perspective 662 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 4: or legislative perspective, or maybe from a certain companies perspective 663 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 4: that are refusing to collaborate, anything like that that our 664 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 4: audience can look to, or that you think the Trump 665 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 4: administration should should replicate or sign into love if there's 666 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 4: something coming from Congress or their influence efforts successfully I 667 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 4: think prevailed through most of DC. 668 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 2: I'm glad that. 669 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 9: Being tough on the Communist Party is bipartisan in Congress. 670 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 9: It's long been a rare area of that, and there 671 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 9: are some really bright people in the Trump administration who 672 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 9: are pushing really hard on these issues. My worry, it's 673 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 9: hard to end on an optimistic note, is that corporations 674 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 9: will not focus on national security and longer term concerns 675 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 9: and more focus on what's in front of them, Isaac. 676 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 4: If people want to follow you, stay up to date 677 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,399 Speaker 4: with everything you're working on and writing, and learn about 678 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 4: your firm, where can they go to do that? 679 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 9: Thank Youword strategyisks dot Com and then I'm on Twitter, 680 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 9: Isaac Stonefish and LinkedIn as well. 681 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. 682 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,279 Speaker 4: Thank you for joining us and giving me a chance 683 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 4: to talk about the CCP. 684 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,359 Speaker 2: Should we talk about more. We'll have you back on soon. 685 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 2: Warroom Posse. It's wild times. 686 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 4: I wish congressional Republicans would do something about it. So 687 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 4: often when you hear people talk tough on China, it's 688 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 4: a bipartisan consensus because the uniparty thinks that they can 689 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 4: deceive you by using it, frankly, just to justify what 690 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 4: trillion dollar defence budget. Yet in reality you have people 691 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 4: working to send over the very same chips that the 692 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 4: PLA is ultimately going to use to manufacture the weapons 693 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 4: that they're going to use to fight us, even though 694 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 4: they don't want to go kinetic or I don't know, 695 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 4: the same people who are going to be probably finding 696 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 4: us potentially on that kinetic battlefield. Or at least certainly 697 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 4: in the economic, information, political and other spears. Well, I 698 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 4: guess we're educating three hundred and fifty thousand of them 699 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 4: at the behest and outright sometimes funding. You know, the 700 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 4: Chinese Scholarship Council, which is responsible for funding so many 701 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 4: foreign students here in the United States, they actually assess 702 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 4: which Chinese people they will give scholarships to based on 703 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 4: how allegiant they are to the Chinese Communist Party. Of course, 704 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 4: always caveated that the allow Baijang, the Chinese people are 705 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 4: the greatest victim of the Chinese Communist Party. 706 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 2: Take down the CCP. Right, we are joined. 707 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 4: Now by Secretary Chuck Gray of the Great State of Wyoming, 708 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 4: one of my personal favorites. We got a few minutes. 709 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 4: I want to hold you through the break, But let 710 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 4: me get this straight. Mark Elias and the lovely crazy 711 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 4: lefty law fair Brigade, they're busy suing you because you 712 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 4: want to make sure that only citizens vote in our elections. 713 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 2: I am I right, We're. 714 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 7: Back, and we predicted it that Mark Elias and the 715 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 7: radical leftists would be suing us on our proof of 716 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 7: citizenship for registering to vote requirement and this is the 717 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 7: failed Russian hoaxer who has been sanctioned by the Fifth Circuit, 718 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 7: Mark Elias, who, as Steve Bannon notes, he does fight though, 719 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 7: And so we have to take this seriously because they're 720 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 7: clearly trying to set up a test case on proof 721 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 7: of citizenship for registering to vote. Because our proof of 722 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,879 Speaker 7: citizenship requirement is so aligned with the SAVE Acts, they're 723 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 7: trying to win in this case to throw out proof 724 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 7: of citizenship at the federal. 725 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 6: Level and across our nation. 726 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 7: So we have to win, and we're going to defend 727 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 7: the law. We're going to defend a strong proof of 728 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 7: citizenship and proof of residency registration requirement that we put 729 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 7: into place in the twenty twenty five legislative session. 730 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 4: When you say test case, can you walk the audience 731 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 4: through how it would sort of get worked up potentially 732 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 4: to the federal level or why you think they're starting 733 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:03,320 Speaker 4: with Wyoming. 734 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 7: Alias filed in federal court. And I think that tells 735 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 7: you something. And he talks about in the complaint how 736 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 7: aligned this law is with documentary proof of citizenship, how 737 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 7: strong it is, and how aligned it is with a 738 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 7: true documentary proof of citizenship requirement which other states that 739 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,280 Speaker 7: have reported to do this have all these carve outs. 740 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 7: We have the real thing along the lines with the 741 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 7: Save Act, and this is a common sense measure to 742 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:45,480 Speaker 7: enforce the law. Only citizens should be voting in elections, period. 743 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 7: And this is merely enforcing the. 744 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,879 Speaker 2: Law by putting in place a. 745 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:51,800 Speaker 7: Proof of citizenship. 746 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 2: Requiring by filing in federal court. 747 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 7: And by noting in as it goes through the bill. 748 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 6: How aligned it is with. 749 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 7: The Save Act, which is proof of citizens for registering 750 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 7: developed at the federal level, which pasts the US House. 751 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 7: It's pretty clear what he's trying to do here. 752 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 2: It really is quite radical. I want to hold you 753 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 2: through the break. 754 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,839 Speaker 4: We've got a jump, but I guess I guess maybe 755 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 4: hat tip there. I guess reverse had tip there and 756 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 4: exposing their their plans. The enemy is revealing that they 757 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 4: really are keen on having non citizens vote though what 758 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:24,879 Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure I was told what for. 759 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 2: Months last year that you know, Oh, it's a fake. 760 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 4: It's a misinformation threat that was created by the right 761 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 4: wing to suppress apparently non citizens from voting. So thank 762 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:37,280 Speaker 4: you Mark Ollias for delivering your own fact to check. 763 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:41,240 Speaker 4: Improving shows like The War Room. Correct.

We're going 773 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 4: to have to bounce in a sec. But obviously, Mark Elias, 774 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 4: he's a busy guy. He's been choosing to spend a 775 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 4: lot of his time posing and resisting whatever President Trump. 776 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 4: So it's interesting I think that he would choose to 777 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 4: spend time on you. You should take it as a 778 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 4: badge of honor. Why now are they nervous for the midterms? 779 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 4: Why are they doing this all in federal court? 780 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 7: Well, I think they're very concerned that we're winning on 781 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 7: election integrity, winning on document improof of citizenship for registering 782 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 7: to vote. I think it's pretty clear they want to 783 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:38,719 Speaker 7: established sort. 784 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 2: Of a test case at the federal level. 785 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:43,840 Speaker 7: If we get the Save Act done. We need to 786 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 7: get that done. Natalie, as you always point out, to 787 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 7: do nothing. Congress needs to act, the Senate needs to 788 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 7: act on the say back, They need to attach it. 789 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 7: If they can't get it done in a single piece 790 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 7: of legislation too, it must pass piece of legislation and 791 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 7: we need to bring it through.
