Speaker 2: the story.

13
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 3: I did have Twitter assistance from John Isner, the fastest

14
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 3: server of all times.

15
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 4: So that was that was, Oh that's cool. Yeah I

16
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 4: didn't know that. Oh yeah, see this is the thing

17
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 4: I had.

18
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: That's uh that's well that's still impressive too. So uh,

19
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's amazing. No, I was because I

20
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 2: think I was maybe with Clay. I think it was

21
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: your wife who said.

22
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 4: My wife was a large Travis was not a believer.

23
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was with your with your wife on that one.

24
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: But then I saw it. I saw the first video

25
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: that you sent me, and I'm like, that's pretty good.

26
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 2: Maybe he can. And then sure enough about but four

27
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 2: or five, six weeks later, one hundred and three or

28
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 2: what was that one hundred.

29
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 3: And four, Yeah, it's okay. Next stop, Congressman is one

30
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 3: hundred and ten. So don't worry about it. I'll post

31
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 3: one hundred and ten video by the end of this year.

32
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 3: So we're getting there.

33
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 4: Bert.

34
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 3: Are you going to fix the government, sir, because we've

35
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 3: got some problems.

36
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

37
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 2: Well, I mean it's been a good year. I mean,

38
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: Clay was saying this the other day. I saw him

39
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: on TV. You know, I always said, we make the

40
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: job too complicated. It's pretty basic. What'd you tell the

41
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 2: voters you were going to do if you get elected

42
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: to do what you said? No one does it better

43
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: than Trump. President Trump said he cut taxes.

44
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 4: He did.

45
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: He said he'd secure the border he did. He said

46
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 2: he'd stop I Ran from getting nuclear weapons, he said,

47
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: in an issue you've been focused on, you guys, particularly Clay,

48
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: he said he'd getting men out of women's sports. It

49
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: looks like the Supreme Court, based on what we saw

50
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: in the arguments. That looks good. So he's delivered on

51
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: what he said he would do. Said he'd get European

52
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 2: countries to kick in more for NATO. They're all like, yes, sir, five,

53
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 2: here we come. So it's been an amazing year. And

54
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 2: I think once the big beautiful bill kicks in the

55
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 2: taxes that people are going to see frankly when they

56
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 2: start filing their tax returns, and as this year progresses,

57
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 2: I think we're in a pretty good position to keep

58
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 2: the majority in the House, which, as you know, historically

59
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: is not easy to do. Yeah, but yeah, it's been

60
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 2: a good year.

61
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,399
Speaker 4: So when you look.

62
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: At the mid term, we can start to talk about

63
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: the midterms coming up, and obviously the House, whether we

64
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: have the majority or the minority, makes a huge difference

65
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: in your life and also in what could happen when

66
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: you look at Minneapolis and the fraud that's going on

67
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: there and now layered on top of it, the ice

68
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: or the response to the shooting there, how does that

69
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: play nationwide?

70
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 4: Do you think?

71
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: Obviously for may Or Fry and for Tim Walls in

72
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: Minnesota they think it's beneficial.

73
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 4: What does the nation think of that? In your mind?

74
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 2: No, I said this to the conference last week or

75
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,239
Speaker 2: Republican members when we got together with the President, that

76
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: I think this campaign has sent. I think we tell

77
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 2: them what we did, things I was just talking about,

78
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 2: and then we always remind the voters how crazy the

79
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: left is. And that is Minnesota. That is Minneapolis, and

80
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: so I think it's really important you do what you

81
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: say and you remind them here's what they did, here's

82
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 2: what they believe, and if they're back in power, they

83
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 2: will do it again. They will impeach him again. They

84
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 2: will open up the border again, they will try to

85
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 2: get men back in women's sports. They will raise your taxes,

86
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 2: they will spend, spend, spend, causing record inflation. They will

87
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 2: do all that again. And you can just look at

88
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: all the dumb things. They defund the police, sanctuary jurisdictions,

89
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 2: which lead to this environment where we saw the tragedy

90
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 2: happen last week where the ice A just defended himself

91
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 2: and this this tragedy happened. So that is the environment

92
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: of the left, and I think it's important to remind

93
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: the voters that's what's coming. They're so crazy. They were

94
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 2: willing to let a Chinese spy balloon fly clear across

95
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: the country and then shoot it down. I think any

96
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 2: other normal person, and I know President Trump would have

97
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: shout it down before it went across the country. So

98
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: remind them of that, and then show them what we've

99
00:03:58,960 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: done to make life better for.

100
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 3: I know you have some testimony that is supposed to

101
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 3: be happening coming up. What is a January twenty second, Congressman,

102
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 3: which is just about what is eight days away, you

103
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 3: will be sharing testimony where Jack Smith, the Special Council Extraordinaire,

104
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: is supposed to explain himself with the whole Trump situation,

105
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 3: what are you expecting with this and what are we

106
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 3: trying to get to here?

107
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 2: Well, I think first of all, it's important to frame it.

108
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: Jack Smith is just sort of the culmination of ten

109
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: years of the left going after President Trump, and it

110
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: was Comy and with all the things he did spine

111
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 2: on the campaign. Then it was Muller, impeachment one and

112
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 2: peachment two, Fannie Willis, Alvin Bragg, and now Jack Smith.

113
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: And so I think we will lay that out, But

114
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 2: specifically we're going to ask Jack Smith, you were so

115
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 2: determined to get the president? Think about this, Think about this.

116
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 2: Kevin McCarthy becomes Speaker of the House on January seventh,

117
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. Sixteen days later, Jack Smith goes and

118
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 2: gets his phone records subpoena for his phone records for

119
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 2: two years prior for a two month timeframe. So he

120
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 2: goes and gets the phone records of the top Republican

121
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: in government, the guy second in line to the president.

122
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,679
Speaker 2: He knows who Kevin called, who called him, when it happened,

123
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: how long it lasted, and if Kevin initiated the call.

124
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 2: He knows where he's at when he does. So you

125
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: can pattern someone's life. You know who the Speaker of

126
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 2: the House was talking to before a big vote, who

127
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 2: he's talking to. That is frightening. And then to add

128
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: insult to injury, he goes to the judge and says,

129
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 2: don't let Verizon, don't let at and T tell these

130
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 2: members of Congress tell the Speaker of the House that

131
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 2: we got his phone records. So he doesn't even know.

132
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 2: And he puts on the subpoena because he might be

133
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 2: a flight risk, Like, you gotta be kidding me. The

134
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 2: Speaker of the House is gonna run from the country.

135
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 2: He might tamper with witnesses. That is how determined he

136
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 2: was to go after President Trump. It is ridiculous. And

137
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 2: now we learned last week that he paid a confidential

138
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 2: human source twenty thousand dollars. My big question to Jack

139
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: Smith is why you can subpoena anybody and everybody you want.

140
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 2: Your Special Council got all the full power of the

141
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 2: Justice Department, and you're paying people to go say bad

142
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 2: things about the president. You got to be kidding me.

143
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 2: So those are the kind of things we're going to

144
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 2: ask him now in an open environment, after we had

145
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 2: him for seven hours in a deposition.

146
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: You went through impeachment one and impeachment two. One of

147
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: the stakes of the mid terms that are coming up

148
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: is it seems quite clear to us. Buck and I

149
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: both believe it's gonna happen. I'm curious if you do.

150
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: If Democrats take back control of the House, they'll impeach

151
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: Trump again. They'll find something to impeach him for. Is

152
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: that in your mind one of the most major stakes

153
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: in terms of having control of the House.

154
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, they will do that, and that will styn me

155
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 2: all the good stuff that we got done last year

156
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 2: that we talked about. So yeah, and you know it's

157
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 2: gonna happen because they've already filed impeachment resolutions, Yeah, several

158
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 2: of them. And maybe more importantly what they did at

159
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: the start of this Congress is on the Judiciary Committee,

160
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 2: they got rid of Jerry Nadler. They said, you're no

161
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 2: longer going to be the top Democrat on the committee.

162
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: We're going to bring in Jamie Raskin because they think

163
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 2: they're going to win and they want to run impeachment

164
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 2: the more traditional way out of the Judiciary Committee versus

165
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 2: how they did it five years ago when they ran

166
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 2: it out of the Intelligence Committee with Adham shiff. So

167
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 2: they bring in Raskin because they think they're going to win,

168
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 2: and they will, in my opinion, they will. I'm with you, guys.

169
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: They will definitely do it because that will and they

170
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 2: will investigate Presidence Family, they'll investigate everyone, just like they did.

171
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: You know what eight years ago, seven years ago.

172
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 3: Do we think that we're ever going to get a

173
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: broader view of the kind of fraud congressman that has

174
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 3: been unearthed in Minnesota? This isn't the only place where

175
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 3: this stuff was going on. You're hearing early early reports

176
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 3: about similar situations in California and particularly around the issue

177
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 3: of fake or greatly exaggerated child care, which is something

178
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 3: that I would assume a lot of the fraudsters thought

179
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 3: to themselves, no one's going to really want to go

180
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: after or look into this. We're providing care for children. Well,

181
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 3: if you're saying you're taking care of three hundred kids

182
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 3: or whatever, and you're getting millions of dollars and there's

183
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 3: no kids, I do think that we should look into that.

184
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 4: I think that that's a problem.

185
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Vice President announced last week they're they've created

186
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 2: a special position at the Justice Department to focus on this.

187
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 2: I think this is sort of a furtherance of the

188
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 2: whole Doze effort, which which elon the work he did there.

189
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 2: I think getting this starting to get this out there

190
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 2: was really important. So I like what they're doing there.

191
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: And you're right, Buck, it seemed like all these programs

192
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 2: feeding kids, giving kids, learning centers, autistic kids, it was

193
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 2: all supposed to be helping the children, when in fact

194
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 2: they were just sticking the money in their pocket. In

195
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 2: this Feeding our Future program, they didn't feed anyone. They

196
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 2: were actually shut down for a period of time and

197
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 2: then it was started back up. And if you remember

198
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 2: the hearing last week, we asked him why was this

199
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 2: started back up. Well, it's because this group said we're

200
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 2: going to file a racial discrimination suit against you if

201
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: you don't start giving us the money that we're just

202
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 2: sticking in our pockets. And they did it. So this

203
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 2: was the old, you know, the typical template that the

204
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: left loose uses. The left will I say, the left

205
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 2: will tell a lie we're feeding children, when in fact

206
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 2: they're not. Big media will cover for the lie, and

207
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 2: then when you tell the truth, they call you racist.

208
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 2: And that's what they did in Minnesota. But it was

209
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 2: even worse. They didn't just look away and restart the money.

210
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 2: It looks like they assisted because there was a meeting

211
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 2: that was actually on videotape between the Attorney General and

212
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 2: leaders of Defeeding our Future program, and two weeks after

213
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 2: that meeting, suddenly the Attorney General starts getting campaign contributions

214
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 2: from these folks. So it was I think a political

215
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 2: looking the other way, assisting political We don't want the

216
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 2: lawsuit against alleging racial discrimination, and we want to keep

217
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 2: their political support, which is the worst kind of scam

218
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 2: and fraud you can have. And it was going on,

219
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 2: as we heard from the members of the General Assembly

220
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 2: from Minnesota last week in the hearing. It's been going

221
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 2: on for ten twelve, maybe even as up to fifteen years,

222
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 2: with various programs.

223
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: We're talking to Congressman Jim Jordan from Ohio. Venezuela and Iran.

224
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: It is unbelievable the success of the raid that happened

225
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: in Venezuela. It certainly is raising I think a lot

226
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: of nervousness inside of Iran because they have to be

227
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 1: very concerned about the capabilities of the United States. What

228
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: do you think will happen, what should happen? If the

229
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: President asks you, hey, how should I handle Iran, what

230
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: would you tell him?

231
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 2: Well, I think Iran's taken everything to President saying seriously,

232
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 2: in light of what happened with what Israel did to

233
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 2: lay some of the ground back, then what we did

234
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 2: amazing operation there. What was that called Midnight Thunder, and

235
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: then the operation that took place in Venezuela. I'm always

236
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 2: surprised at the left. The left criticizes in Venezuela and

237
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 2: I'm like, wait a minute, we took out the head

238
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 2: of a narco terrorist criminal operation who's got a five

239
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 2: year arrest warrant. Who's you know, playing foot seat with

240
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 2: China and Iran.

241
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: With a twenty five million dollar bounty that Biden increased

242
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: just in January last year.

243
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 2: Right here in our hemisphere, and somehow the Left says,

244
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 2: all this is a bad thing. I think I have

245
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: confidence in the President. I've confidence certainly in Secretary State

246
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 2: Rubio as well, that they'll handle this in the right way.

247
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 2: I think this idea of making sure Venezuela get the

248
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 2: benefit of the resources they have there, help their population,

249
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 2: helps helps the whole market. I mean, this is not

250
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 2: about getting oil necessarily for Americans, making sure Iran and

251
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 2: China don't get it and the people of Venezuela benefit

252
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 2: from it and they get a better lifestyle there. And

253
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 2: also maybe stopping this this huge migration we've had of

254
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 2: people coming to the country saying, there's all those elements,

255
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,599
Speaker 2: and I trust this administration to handle it in the

256
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 2: way that that they should.

257
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 3: I have one more question on the subpoena side of things,

258
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 3: not to divert too quickly from Iran and Venezuela, but

259
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 3: I wanted to get this one in while we have you.

260
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 3: Congressman Fani Willis also has been subpoena. As I understand things,

261
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 3: can you tell us where that is and where that

262
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 3: that oversight investigation is going.

263
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,559
Speaker 2: I'll tell you this about her. I guess someone to

264
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 2: work for lover boy. Yeah, mister Wade. Yeah, we actually

265
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 2: have already brought him in and we deposed him. And

266
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 2: when we deposed him, it was a fascinating because we

267
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 2: asked him, you build, you build the taxpayers at Georgia

268
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 2: for several hours of meetings and conversations here in d C.

269
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 2: And he goes, yeah, uh building said you know, he

270
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 2: did it. He came up here and did that. We said, well,

271
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 2: who'd you talk to? Couldn't remember? We said, did you

272
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 2: meet him at the people to the White House? People

273
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: in January sixth Committeehere you're at the Capitol, where you're

274
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,079
Speaker 2: at the White House? Where at the Justice part? Where'd

275
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: you meet? Couldn't remember? We said, we said, did you

276
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 2: meet him in person? Or did you do it via

277
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 2: zoom or you know? Some couldn't remember. Finally we asked him,

278
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 2: did you really come? Are we just like, was it

279
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 2: like Minnesota? Were you just shaking down the taxpayer? He goes, oh, yeah,

280
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 2: I was here. I built for it. I was definitely here.

281
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 2: I just can't remember anything about what took place. So

282
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 2: that's sort of the state of play with these uh

283
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 2: with these folks in Georgia. That whole suit, as you

284
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 2: all know, that whole action, I should say, has been

285
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 2: has fallen apart, was completely bogused, and I think everyone

286
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 2: saw that. But yeah, we were waiting to see what

287
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: may transpire with UH, with with Fannie.

288
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 3: Willis Is there is there is there federal legal jeopardy

289
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 3: that you think Foundie Willis could find her self in

290
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 3: based on the facts as you know them.

291
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know about that. We're we're trying to

292
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 2: get her testimony and trying to get information from her,

293
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: and she it seems like every time she is in

294
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 2: some kind of public appearance and George, she wants to

295
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 2: attack our committee and the work we're doing when we're

296
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 2: just we're just trying to get the truth out there,

297
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 2: because this was all part of as we said a

298
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 2: few minutes ago, this was all part of this concerted

299
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 2: effort to go after the president, and it didn't work.

300
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 2: The country. This is what I love about Americans. Americans

301
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 2: in the end get to the truth. Americans have common sense.

302
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,959
Speaker 2: One of the reasons we're the greatest country ever. They

303
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 2: saw through all the beat and they said, no, no,

304
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: President Trump's getting a raw deal here. We want this

305
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 2: guy back as commander in chief, back in the Oval office,

306
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 2: and as I said before, it's been an amazing first

307
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 2: year of his second term.

308
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 3: Jim Jordan, glad you get to hang out with my

309
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 3: man Clay there in DC. I feel a little left

310
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 3: out right now, to be honest with you. I feel

311
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 3: like you guys are gonna go, you know, throw a

314
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 2: Meetings and votes. We just had a committee here in

00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 2: it out stuff.

316
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 4: You know.

317
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 2: I'm coming to Florida and I want to I'm want

318
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 2: to maybe want to see it in person.

319
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 3: Oh I'm gonna say, I'm Miami. Yeah, you got to

320
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 3: come check it out because I want to see.

321
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 2: I want to see the studio, but more importantly, I

322
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 2: want to see the serve. I want to see it

323
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 2: in action.

324
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 4: Will video you live? Will video you live with the gun?

325
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 4: If you come down with the.

326
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 2: Sun, I'm trying to return it.

327
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 3: I am no, no, no, I'm saying you could be

328
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 3: the officiant on the serve gun for me. We'll bring

329
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: you down here. Alright, all right, thanks everybody.

330
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 1: I'm picking Indiana. I think that Indiana is gonna win.

331
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: But I do think I'm kind of finessing things. I

332
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: took Miami plus the eight and a half. I think

333
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: it's a field goal game. I think it'll be a

334
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: defensive struggle. I like, what the Hurricanes your bucks going

335
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: to the game with for you, guys, my beloved Hurricanes,

336
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: my beloved. Let me just go on the record here.

337
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: I've really I've crunched the numbers. I've watched the tape.

338
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: Hurricanes are coming through with the W on this one. Okay,

339
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: Hurricanes all the way. My Miami Hurricanes are going to

340
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,479
Speaker 1: blow through town. Fantastic.

341
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 2: The defensive line three and four I think are their numbers.

342
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 2: I can't rea their names. That was the game, in

343
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 2: my judgment.

344
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: I just saw jd Vance at the White House and

345
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: I said, what happened with your buck, guys? And he said, thanks,

346
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 1: I've got a lot of the things going on in

347
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: my life right now. I appreciate you reinforcing what happened

348
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: in that game against Miami.

349
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 3: All right, thanks guys, take care, all right, Clay, I

350
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 3: gotta pay some bills.

351
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 4: Uh.

352
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 3: It didn't take me long to fully appreciate why new

353
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 3: parents love to take pictures of their little ones. It's

354
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 3: amazing here with little Jimmy Speed, and it's fantastic day

355
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 3: in and day out. But my mom and dad, they

356
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 3: raised four kids in their house, and my dad used

357
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 3: to have to go to all of our sporting events.

358
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 3: He loved it, but sporting events and family get togethers.

359
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 3: And he was a VHS guy. He used to have

360
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 3: the camp quarter out and he'd be like, Buck, oh,

361
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 3: what do you think about you know, the school play today?

362
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 3: And I'd be like, I thought it was great, but

363
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 3: now I can't watch that anymore. We got these old

364
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,400

Speaker 1: Welcome back in Out number two Clay Travis buck Sexton show,

389
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 1: I'm in DC. Buck just told me I could take

390
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: my tie off. You will be pleased to know Buck

391
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: a couple of things based on the last time we

392
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: were in DC.

393
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 4: One.

394
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: I remembered to actually wear a suit, which is an

395
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: improvement over my tim.

396
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 3: I heard you walked into the Oval office and trumb

397
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 3: was like Clay Travis, the Sandals guy tries to get

398
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 3: past Secret Service wearing sandals.

399
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 4: They don't love this. They don't love the sandals.

400
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: I had my correct ID, not my real ID, because

401
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 1: I still haven't gone to the DMV to get the

402
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: real ID. But I did have my passport.

403
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 4: So all smoothly in.

404
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: And I don't know that this has so a couple

405
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: of things since we were there last in June. So

406
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 1: I went past all of the photos. I saw the

407
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 1: auto pin photo or the walk of honor there where

408
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: President Trump has placed Joe Biden's image with an auto pen.

409
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 1: I don't know that this has been reported on very much,

410
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: or I haven't seen it. President Trump has written biographies

411
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: edited autobiographies, are not autobiographies, but biographies of each of

412
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: the presidents. There now is not just a photo of

413
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: each of the former presidents. There is like a paragraph

414
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: of each of the each of the presidents and their accomplishments.

415
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's accomplishments not a very I mean, I again,

416
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 1: I don't know if it. I was told I couldn't

417
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 1: take photos of it, and I don't have a photographic

418
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: memory to get exactly what was written there. They're hysterical book,

419
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:51,959
Speaker 1: they're absolutely historian's. President Trump describing Joe Biden's tenure Barack

420
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 1: Obama's tenure. I remember on Bill Clinton's biography underneath his

421
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: photo the final Senate is and unfortunately something like and

422
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: unfortunately for Bill Clinton his wife would go on to

423
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: lose a devastating, you know, defeat to President Trump in

424
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. And so he's remade that entire walkway. When

425
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: I went in the Oval office just about an hour ago,

426
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: he was meeting with a huge team of architects working

427
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: on the new ballroom that he is trying to put

428
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: the finishing touches on as they are really undergoing just

429
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 1: rapid fire transformation there. And anyway, it was really good

430
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: to see him. He wanted me to tell you all

431
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: that he said Hi, that he's going to come on

432
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: the show again soon with us, and that he appreciates

433
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: all the time that he's gotten to spend talking with

434
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: all of you and all the feedback that he gets

435
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: that's very positive every time he comes on the show.

436
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: So all of that underway right now. The big ques

437
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,919
Speaker 1: question I think that is looming Buck is what are

438
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: we going to do with Iran? And I asked, you know,

439
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: Jim Jordan was just in with us and I asked

440
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: him about that. There has been we've cleared the bases

441
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: of Katar of American soldiers. There are reports that Israel

442
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: is starting to clamp down expecting that there may be

443
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: an attack coming there, and so to me, it feels

444
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: very eminent that something is coming there and that there

445
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: have been unfortunately thousands, maybe as many some of these

446
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: reports that I've seen buck maybe as many as ten

447
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: thousand people that the Iranian government has killed who are

448
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: in the middle of protests, and kind of put that

449
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: into perspective for you Tianaman Square, which still gets a

450
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: ton of attention back in I believe nineteen eighty nine,

451
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: China killed around two hundred and fifty protesters for those

452
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 1: of you who remember the brave sold the brave protesters

453
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: standing in front of the tanks. We're talking about orders

454
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: of magnitude more of murders that have been occurring as

455
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,360
Speaker 1: people have been trying to stand up against Iran. And

456
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 1: so I do think the biggest and most significant thing

457
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 1: going on in the world right now is Iran and

458
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: trying to figure out exactly what the American response is

459
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: going to be and should be, is I believe, taking

460
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 1: up a great deal of time right now in the

461
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: in the in the White House, and I expect that

462
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: we are going to do something that is of a

463
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: significant nature.

464
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 3: So I can tell you that from what I have

465
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:44,479
Speaker 3: I've heard from the administration in recent days, it is

466
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 3: very much in the decision making process right now on

467
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 3: this issue, meaning Trump is and this is being widely reported,

468
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 3: but I'm told this is true. That meaning it's not

469
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 3: like a decision has been made. It is still Trump

470
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 3: weighing on options, watching and making the determination as commander

471
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 3: in chief when and if he sees the moment is right.

472
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 3: So there's a whole bunch of things that come into

473
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 3: play here. For one, we know that there's there's the

474
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 3: helpful but not kinetic actions helpful but not that's what

475
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 3: I call them, and that would be things like cyber

476
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 3: messing with Iranian regime communications helping communications might note Elon

477
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 3: is already doing.

478
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: His trying to get starlink back up, because there's lots

479
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: of reports that Iran basically he has totally sabotaged his

480
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: ability to get internet access to the people who are protesting.

481
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 3: I mean, one thing that is going on right now

482
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 3: is Iran is trying to keep the world in the

483
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 3: dark in some cases literally keep US will keep its

484
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 3: own people in the dark rather by cutting power, cutting

485
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 3: internet access and making it so that we won't know

486
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 3: how brutal the repression really is. Because they realize there

487
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 3: is a there is a threshold through which even other

488
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 3: countries will start to go WHOA, yes, this is this

489
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 3: is crossing a line. So that doesn't mean they'll do

490
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 3: anything about it. But you know, the Iranians are not

491
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 3: in some position. Iran is not Russia. Iran cannot afford

492
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 3: to just thumb its nose at the world and say

493
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 3: we've got nukes and lots of oil. You're not doing

494
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 3: anything about it. And so that means that they do

495
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 3: have to pay attention to what's happening right now with

496
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 3: the repression.

497
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 4: And let's speak clear.

498
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 3: They're mowing down people who are unarmed, who are protesting

499
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 3: in the streets. They are murdering men and women, probably

500
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 3: children too, who are at these protests in an act

501
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 3: of we are in charge. You shut your mouths or

502
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 3: we will kill you.

503
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 4: Right.

504
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 3: So there's the non kinetic stuff, and then you get

505
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 3: into the that we could do, and then there's the

506
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 3: kinetic stuff, and that's that's where things get more interesting.

507
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 3: In a whole range of ways we could hit. Like

508
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 3: I said, Clay, we could hit the besiege facilities. We

509
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,239
Speaker 3: could hit so besiege are I mentioned this. They're like

510
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 3: the street thugs. Think of them like the Iranian brown

511
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 3: you know, the eye the revolutionary brown shirts. They are

512
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 3: are like a militia meant to And this is very

513
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 3: common in notice with dictators, with authoritarians, they have the

514
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 3: military and they always have the paramilitary right. They have

515
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 3: the people that are kind of operating with the wink

516
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 3: of the administration, the help administration, but not quite on

517
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 3: direct orders necessarily, or at least pretending they're not on

518
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 3: direct orders, so they can do really nasty stuff. You know,

519
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 3: that's the day they'll do whatever. We could blow up

520
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 3: some of their stuff, and then the issue, Clay becomes

521
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 3: what is Iran do in response? They do have some

522
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 3: long range missiles and they could try to hit our bases,

523
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 3: and they could try to hit Israel. Will they do that?

524
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 3: And then what do we do in response? This is

525
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 3: where things get tricky, and it is why Trump is

526
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 3: weighing his options as we speak, very carefully well and

527
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 3: certainly the other question about this is do they have

528
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 3: the ability to actually do any damage to US, and

529
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 3: this is why I think American military resources are being

530
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 3: pulled out of Qatar. They certainly Iran has fired hundreds,

531
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 3: if not thousands of missiles at Israel indiscriminately in response

532
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 3: to what Israel.

533
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 4: Did during the Twelve Day War.

534
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: I think the question that ultimately is now confronting the Ayatola,

535
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,679
Speaker 1: and this is where I would say it's connected to

536
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: what happened with Venezuela and Maduro. I think the people

537
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,719
Speaker 1: of Iran, the Ayatola, the leadership at the high levels,

538
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: the Malas, are aware that if the United States wants

539
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: to take them out, we can take them out. And

540
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: this is where I think the Venezuela Maduro example is impacting.

541
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: I think a lot of the geopolitical relations the United

542
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: States has with many countries around the world world because

543
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,120
Speaker 1: many of them looked around and said, wait a minute,

544
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: if they can do this to Venezuela, could they do

545
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: this to us too? And so I wonder on some level,

546
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 1: and I'm not sure if he's willing to do it

547
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: because he's an old man. I think the Aatola is

548
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: eighty eight. If I'm not mistaken, what Maduro should have

549
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:22,719
Speaker 1: done Buck was take the gilded refuge, live as a

550
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: multi hundred millionaire on some fabulous estate somewhere in a

551
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,239
Speaker 1: very nice region. And I wonder whether some of the

552
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: top Iranian leaders might be thinking, given what happened to

553
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: Maduro boy, I don't want to die, or I don't

554
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 1: want to end up in a prison for the rest

555
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 1: of my life, maybe I should voluntarily relinquish power and

556
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 1: basically abdicate. It's not a throne, but abdicate the seat

557
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: of government. I wonder whether there's back channel negotiations and

558
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: discussions taking place as it pertains to that. That's what

559
00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: I would wonder in general, if the decision making puts

560
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: actually is going to impact that and would they be

561
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: willing to make that rational choice or are these guys

562
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: going to go down with the proverbial ship.

563
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 3: Well, we know, and I think Trump knows this and

564
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 3: has known this for a long time. The American people

565
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 3: have no stomach whatsoever and shouldn't because I think it's

566
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 3: an error. It's not just we don't want to pay

567
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 3: the price. I don't think we would get where we

568
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 3: want to go trying to run it on ourselves, rebuild it,

569
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 3: patrol the streets. I mean, the older Rock two thousand

570
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 3: and three miles not happening. It's just not happening. So

571
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 3: the concerns that people have about that, I understand those concerns.

572
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:41,360
Speaker 3: But no one in any decision make Pete Hegseth won't

573
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 3: allow that. Trump won't allow that JD go down the list.

574
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 3: No one is going to say that that's what we're

575
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,679
Speaker 3: going to do. So as long as that's off the table,

576
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 3: and I truly believe what this administration it is, other

577
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 3: administrations it wouldn't be off the table. This administration was.

578
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 3: To give you a sense of how cynical things were.

579
00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 3: Obama came in and simultaneously in Afghanistan. I was working

580
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 3: on the Afghan desk at the CIA when this happened,

581
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:04,959
Speaker 3: So this was I was paying very close attention to this.

582
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 3: Said we're gonna surge one hundred thousand troops, but also

583
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 3: here's our withdraw here's the draw down date.

584
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 4: And everyone's like, well, what do you mean.

585
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 3: You surge the troops to win, You don't surge the

586
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 3: troops to make some political statement and then say, but

587
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 3: we're also going to leave. At this time, the whole

588
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 3: thing was a mess. It was all politics. But Afghanistan

589
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 3: was the good war. Rock was the bad war. We've

590
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 3: learned all these lessons, is my point play. And as

591
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 3: long as the Iranian people are the ones calling the

592
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 3: shots and in charge at the end of this, that's

593
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 3: where we want to be.

594
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 4: It's not gonna be us.

595
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 3: We're we're not sending our you know, nineteen twenty twenty

596
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 3: one year old marines to try to get the water

597
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 3: turned on in shiraz I.

598
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: I think one of the questions that is maybe most

599
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: paramount here too, Buck, is what is the Iranian military

600
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 1: going to do?

601
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 4: And I've talked to some people.

602
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 1: You may have had actual discussions about this back when

603
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: you were in your previous life. At some point in time,

604
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: the military moves from we're taking the orders from the

605
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 1: people in the high command. The iatola is the malas,

606
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 1: And when you start asking them to mow down protesters,

607
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: they start recognizing weight. That could be my sister, that

608
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: could be my aunt, that could be my uncle, that

609
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: could be my brother sister, and they start to refuse

610
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 1: to just make that choice right. And I wonder if,

611
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: as these bodies are stacking up, whether some of these

612
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: military individuals are gonna You remember.

613
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 3: When can I tell you what I think the calculation is,

614
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 3: because what you're saying is true, but in the context

615
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 3: of Iran, it's for these soldiers who are being given

616
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 3: these orders. I think a more immediate thing for some

617
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 3: of them is if I don't do this, are they

618
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 3: going to execute me and maybe throw my family in

619
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 3: some hell hole make.

620
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 4: An example of me? So you're damned if you do,

621
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 4: and you're damned if you don't.

622
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 3: So that's the real And so the calculation becomes, well,

623
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 3: if I don't do it, is there a chance that

624
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 3: I can survive or that they won't be willing to

625
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 3: execute me to make an example of me?

626
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 4: Right?

627
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 3: If I basically defy this order, what happens to me?

628
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 3: Because that's the calculator that when you get into people's

629
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 3: self interest, you really know what you're dealing with.

630
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: That's also where it's not only the self interest, it's

631
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 1: what is the impact if the United States rains down

632
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: bombs on the Ayatola. I think that's a big part

633
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 1: of their discussion too. Does it in some way strengthen

634
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: the Iranian regime because they say, oh, look, these are

635
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 1: just external actors attacking us internally in the country. This

636
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: is not an organic, organic anti Iran protest. This is Israel,

637
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: this is the United States, this is external actors. Or

638
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: to your point, Buck, which I think is an interesting one.

639
00:30:54,800 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: Does the attack further delegitimize the Iranian regime such that

640
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: some of those soldiers look around and say, you know,

641
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: it's one thing to fight when you think that you

642
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 1: might win. Nobody wants to be the last soldier getting

643
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 1: killed in a war that you're going to lose. And

644
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: I wonder in their heads psychologically if they see there's

645
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: no power here, it's already humiliation happened in the Twelve Day.

646
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: War.

647
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: How do they handle that going forward? I think it's

648
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: a really intriguing part of this analysis.

649
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 3: Of all the investments I've had I've made in the

650
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 3: past half dozen years or so, buying and owning gold

651
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 3: top five, might even top three, and after crunch the numbers,

652
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 3: last year alone, the gold I own increased more than

653
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 3: sixty percent in value. Historically, gold has always increased in

654
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 3: value year to year, and last year's performance was a

655
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 3: banner year for both the value of gold as well

656
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 3: as silver. Twenty twenty six hold similar promise for continued

657
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 3: growth and value for gold, especially is it time that

658
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,719
Speaker 3: you decided to make a similar investment to benefit your

659
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 3: four oh one K or IRA.

660
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 4: Give it some thought. The team Birch Gold.

661
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 3: Group knows the real reasons behind these big price jumps

662
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 3: because they believe in the long term thesis of gold holding,

663
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 3: maintaining and growing in value. Look at the fundamentals. Gold

664
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 3: makes sense. Look at gold over the last twenty five years.

665
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 3: It's gone up several times in price. It's remarkable. Until

00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: you gonna have a capital yeah, it does, and I

700
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: can't remember. Of course I'm not gonna be good at

701
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: pronouncing it, but it's like it's I feel like it

702
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: starts with an eye some nook nook Okay, noo, Yeah

703
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: I was wrong. It starts with an I.

704
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying he's He's like, nook gonna be

705

Speaker 3: beautiful streets, wonderful things, like he's gonna he's the best

707
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 3: salesman out there. Could you imagine you're in the Greenland

708
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 3: delegation and then you're gonna sit down with like the Danish.

709
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,439
Speaker 4: Guys who are like, but we give you free health care.

710
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 3: They're like, well, Trump's offering to stuff for our coffers

711
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 3: with like tons of money.

712
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,759
Speaker 1: So well, this is my point on Greenland. From the

713
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: get go, everybody's like, first of all, Trump's decision to

714
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: want to expand the sphere of influence manifest destiny style

715
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,760
Speaker 1: for those of you who are old school history people,

716
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: is actually basically the foundation of the United States, but

717
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: we haven't done it since we bought the Virgin Islands

718
00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: from Denmark.

719
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 4: The the craziest part about all.

720
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: The criticism of the Greenland decision is that we bought

721
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 1: from the Danes the Virgin Islands back in I believe

722
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: nineteen seventeen for twenty five million dollars in gold. We

723
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:17,439
Speaker 1: tried to buy Greenland back in the past. And how

724
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 1: can Denmark sell it If it's so unacceptable.

725
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 4: For us to be buying Greenland.

726
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 1: How about the fact that Denmark is trying to sell

727
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: it to make money on it. So that is potentially

728
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 1: underway right now a negotiation and opening bid for Greenland.

729
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 3: Can I just say, like, let's just put all of

730
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 3: our chips on the table. Wholly here, friends, Okay, this

731
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 3: is We're in the trust tree, just you me. Clay

732
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 3: considered it the three of us plus a few million

733
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 3: of you on about six hundred stations, so we're in

734
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 3: the trust tree.

735
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:50,880
Speaker 4: It's just us talking.

736
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 3: There are some parts of America roughly speaking, I wouldn't

737
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 3: I wouldn't throw any states under the bus, unlike some

738
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 3: people over here. With his New Mexico madness, I tossed

739
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 3: New Mexico on the scrap heap.

740
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 4: I was wrong. I've apologized.

741
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: I now want to give up Minnesota so Minnesota's can

742
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: be angry Minneapolis in particular.

743
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 4: Someone maybe we could just sell.

744
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:17,319
Speaker 1: Minneapolis along with Tim Walls and Jacob Frye and just have.

745
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 4: Them vanished from the United States.

746
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,360
Speaker 3: Someone has not experienced the glories of muskie fishing season

747
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 3: up in Minnesota.

748
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 4: I'm just putting the muske lunge a beautiful well that's

749
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 4: in northern Minnesota.

750
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 1: I'm just carving out Minneapolis and all the crazy people

751
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 1: there and selling it to Canada. They probably belonged to

752
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 1: Canada more than they be.

753
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,760
Speaker 3: So like I'm gonna I'm gonna do the just list

754
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,680
Speaker 3: of US territories. Okay, like list of US territories. Take

755
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 3: a look at this. We got Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam,

756
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 3: Marianna Islands, and American Samoa.

757
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 4: Let's just take one of these for example.

758
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 3: Okay, if if American Samoa, if a foreign entity came

759
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 3: along that we thought was like a good they were

760
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 3: good guys. So this doesn't include like China. But you know,

761
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 3: if the UK for some reason said to us, and

762
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 3: you know, we're we're tight with the UK still at

763
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 3: least for the foreseeable and they said, guys, we're going

764
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 3: to give you a trillion dollars for American Samoa. Now

765
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,280
Speaker 3: that's a crazy price tag, right, but just a truly

766
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 3: not for American Samoa. I'm not trying to be mean

767
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 3: to our Samoan brothers and sisters, but I think we

768
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 3: got to think about that offer long and hard. My

769
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 3: point here is if the price was right for an

770
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 3: American territory. Remember I'm not saying state it's territory. If

771
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 3: it was in our strategic interest, why not? Why why

772
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 3: would we not make that deal if it was for

773
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 3: the better for the betterment of the of the American

774
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 3: people overall? I mean Guam. We probably have some listeners

775
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 3: on the military base there. I don't see what the

776
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 3: big deal is if if if Japan came to us

777
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 3: they wanted it back in the day, as we know,

778
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 3: if Japan came to us and they said, look, we'll

779
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,839
Speaker 3: give you X for Guam, you know, or maybe even

780
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 3: a trade clay, maybe Japan would say, you know, we'll

781
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 3: give you a I don't know, U Hokkaido or something like,

782
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 3: will give you some that's a big place. But you

783
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,439
Speaker 3: got what I'm saying, they gave you something, it's a deal.

784
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 3: Why is this so crazy to people? This has been

785
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 3: all of human history. These kinds of deals have been made.

786
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 3: I That's what I think is so important about this.

787
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 1: We just stopped having this expansionist idea of American power,

788
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 1: and we very inwardly shrunk and the idea that we

789
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: would have a sphere of influence, or that the Monroe

790
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: doctrine would apply, or that manifest destiny would apply. Look,

791
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a Monday Morning quarterback, but

792
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like we blew.

793
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 4: It with the Spanish American War. Why did we not

794
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 4: keep Cuba?

795
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 1: Why after Teddy Roosevelt charged the Hill down in eighteen

796
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,879
Speaker 1: ninety eight, if I'm not mistaken, why did we give

797
00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: up Cuba? That created a huge, huge danger zone for

798
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: a generation for a century plus one hundred and fifty years,

799
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 1: ninety miles south of our of our shores. We just

800
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: hoped that Cuba would make rational decisions that would further

801
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 1: the health and freedom and well being of everybody there.

802
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 4: Instead, we had the Cuban missile crisis.

803
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,400
Speaker 1: You've got a buddy who was actually involved in the

804
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 1: Cuban missile crisis, like.

805
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 4: Back in the day at the CIA.

806
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 3: A mentor of mine who was at the Bay of

807
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 3: pigs captured and ransomed back by America. Yeah, he's told

808
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 3: me the stories over Scotch and wow.

809
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 4: It's crazy. It's crazy.

810
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: But I mean again, this is where I look at

811
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: Venezuela and I don't think it's outrageous to believe. I

812
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: was having dinner last night with one of my buddies

813
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 1: who works in the federal government, and we were talking

814
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:54,919
Speaker 1: about Trump has basically created a scenario where Venezuela, Cuba,

815
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 1: and Iran in a modern day version of the Berlin

816
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: Wall coming down. These two motalitarian governments could all crumble

817
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 1: in response to the strength that Donald Trump showed in

818
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: how he's handled these adversarial figures. And I don't know

819
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: that many people have really started to think about how

820
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 1: much that could change. I mean, for those of you

821
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: remember Buck, you remember this we were talking about when

822
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: the soldiers decide to stop shooting. The Berlin Wall came

823
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,359
Speaker 1: down so quickly. When we were in that situation, it

824
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 1: was suddenly you could go from East Germany to West

825
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: Germany and the soldiers wouldn't shoot you, and then you

826
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: could sit on top of the wall and you could

827
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 1: start to chip away with it, and it just happened

828
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,400
Speaker 1: almost instantaneously, but it wasn't by accident. It was a

829
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 1: series of decisions that put in place that outcome, which

830
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 1: fundamentally changed the trajectory of the world. I think we

831
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 1: are potentially sitting on the precipice of a modern day

832
00:40:55,239 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: Berlin Wall movement, when freedom could shine across the entire

833
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 1: of many of the most adversarial countries to United States

834
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: interest in the world, and it would be because of

835
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's Peace through Strength mandate. I'm cautiously optimistic that

836
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,720
Speaker 1: we're about to have a transformative moment for the world.

837
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 3: I hope you're right if someone was asking me what

838
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 3: I think is going to happen. Unfortunately, I think the

839
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 3: odds are still on the Mulas holding on.

840
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: You think they'll just keep killing people and this will

841
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 1: be like the previous uprisings that we've seen happening round

842
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 1: in the past, were slowly the stranglehold of the Mullus

843
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: comes back and people stop coming out in the streets.

844
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,359
Speaker 3: Based on what I have seen and heard so far, yes,

845
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 3: although I reserve the right to change my assessment tomorrow.

846
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 3: Look the big question mark here, and this is the

847
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 3: big question. This is the big question Mark when I

848
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 3: was meeting with the President of Taiwan as well. With

849
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 3: a possibility of a China, you know, invasion, the big

850
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 3: question is what's America going to do. Yeah, we have

851
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 3: a difference maker capability here. We're the only country in

852
00:41:59,920 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 3: the world in this regard that does so. So far,

853
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 3: to my knowledge, we have not decided. Trump has not

854
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 3: decided as commander in chief to tip the scales here.

855
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 3: I think if that continues, they will be successful in

856
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 3: suppressing and the mass murder will happen.

857
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 4: And that's just the way it will be. I think

858
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 4: the X factor.

859
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 3: Is if we wake up and Trump has decided enough

860
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 3: is enough, then I think the Mullas might be toast.

861
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 3: Then I think we might have a difference in Iran

862
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 3: and that now that puts a lot on this Trump

863
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 3: decision obviously, but that's where I come down on this.

864
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,479
Speaker 3: If Trump does not take action, I think that they'll

865
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 3: be successful in Iran in the suppression. If Trump takes action,

866
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 3: then I think that actually the Mullas are done, I

867
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 3: think it will happen.

868
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: Then the question obviously becomes who's next is the Is

869
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 1: it the former Shaw the family that was forced out

870
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy nine. Is there a bridge there that

871
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:01,879
Speaker 1: potentially leads to it?

872
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:03,399
Speaker 4: Those would be.

873
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 1: The next questions I think if he's going to act, buck,

874
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:07,240
Speaker 1: I think he will act.

875
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 4: What are we about?

876
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:12,919
Speaker 1: It's getting close to dark in Iran right now out there?

877
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 1: So what do the streets of Iran look like tonight?

878
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 4: How many more people show up?

879
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,399
Speaker 1: Because think about it, if we're correct based on it again,

880
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: it's hard to get information one hundred percent accurate out

881
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 1: of Iran because they've shut down all communication. But it

882
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,239
Speaker 1: seems quite clear that thousands of people are dead. If

883
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 1: you were in Iran, you would understand that if you're

884
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 1: taking the streets at any point now, there is a

885
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 1: decent likelihood that you could be shot yourself or your

886
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 1: friends or family with you could be shot as well.

887
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 1: In other words, thousands of people being killed in a

888
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 1: country that has a population of ninety million, it is

889
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 1: having a devastating impact in terms of the deaths that

890
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:53,399
Speaker 1: are occurring there right now.

891
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 4: So my point on this is, can I ask you

892
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:56,439
Speaker 4: a question about this just real quick?

893
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 3: First of all, Trump is supposed to speak about this,

894
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 3: I think pretty shortly. I think we just got a

895
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 3: notice from our team Clay that Trump is going to

896
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 3: be talking about this. Am I right on that one, guys, Yeah,

897
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 3: Trump is going to be addressed. So we may be

898
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 3: hearing something again.

899
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: It's getting dark, so that's why I'm saying it's going

900
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 1: to be a night attack.

901
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,839
Speaker 4: Right. It's a better time to be firing stuff, that much.

902
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 4: We do know. Nighttime is when you want to be

903
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 4: especially when you have night vision and.

904
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 3: All the technological advantage that we have. I think though,

905
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 3: it's just this is a bit of an aside, but

906
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 3: I think it's worth mentioning Clay. You know all these

907
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 3: people that you've heard, including some on the right, who

908
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 3: are so upset about what Israel was fighting and the

909
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 3: Israeli fighting in Gaza, where are they on people being

910
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,399
Speaker 3: mowed down in the streets in their own country for protesting.

911
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 3: They're not even fighting the regime, they're not even shooting

912
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 3: at the regime, They're just protesting. They're being mowed down

913
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,320
Speaker 3: with machine guns. Where are these people that care so

914
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 3: much about human rights and and and cared about the

915
00:44:59,080 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 3: innocent life and.

916
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 4: They say nothing about this. I'm not seeing And.

917
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,720
Speaker 3: I know who is very loud about Gaza, including people

918
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 3: on the right, which was surprising. I see nothing right now. No,

919
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I think people should take note of that

920
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 3: one hundred percent.

921
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 4: Buck. I'm in DC.

922
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:18,880
Speaker 1: My alma mater, George Washington University Campus Quad was taken

923
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: over because supposedly all of the Palestinians were being murdered

924
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 1: by Israel. We know, beyond the shadow of a doubt

925
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 1: that Iran is killing its own people. Not one scintilla

926
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: of protests anywhere, not at UCLA, not at Colombia, not

927
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 1: at George Washington, not at all of these campuses that

928
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:43,400
Speaker 1: were taken over Colombia. It's it's I think, instructive of

929
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,479
Speaker 1: what we've said, Buck, When there's not a big, bad

930
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 1: boogeyman white person that can can be blamed, Israel is

931
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:54,080
Speaker 1: seen as white. Jewish people are seen as white, even

932
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 1: though that's not accurate. The white person is the bad guy.

933
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: When that can't happen, nobody pays a TENI we'll take

934
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: some of your calls. By the way, eight hundred and

935

00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 1: is You'll want to stay tuned in the meantime. If

938
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,360
Speaker 1: you're coming up on the end of the year balance,

939
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: and you looked and you said, boy, we spent a

940
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,359
Speaker 1: lot more money in twenty twenty five than we thought

941
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 1: we wanted to. We spent more money on Christmas gifts

942
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: than we wanted to, We spent more money on travel.

943
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 1: Maybe the credit card debt is more substantial than.

944
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:29,280
Speaker 4: You had hoped.

945
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 1: And your new year's resolution was, I want to save

Speaker 1: in touch with them no matter where they are around

954

00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 1: as making phone calls, as every parent does when you're

956
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,839

Speaker 1: of a year. That would make a big difference to

Speaker 1: you during the course of twenty twenty six and in

963
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,960

00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:05,799
Speaker 1: Now.

980
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 3: We are keeping an eye out for when the President

981
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 3: is going to address the nation on his thinking on Iran.

982
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 3: This is a big deal for a whole range of reasons.

983
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 3: We've been talking to you about our sympathy and hearts

984
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 3: and hopes go out to the Iranian people who are

985
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 3: taking substantial risks.

986
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 4: For their freedom.

987
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 3: This is a country that has a very rich and

988
00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 3: very long history as a culture and as a people

989
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 3: that has unfortunately been enslaved by a theocracy, a theocracy

990
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 3: of revolutionary autocrats who have been in charge for almost

991
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:51,440
Speaker 3: fifty years, and they've done an amazing job of e

992
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 3: miserating ninety million people and making a whole lot of

993
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 3: problems for the rest of the world too. Isn't this

994
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 3: isn't just a Iranian problem. The Mullahs are a problem

995
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,279
Speaker 3: for so many of the countries in the region and

996
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:10,320
Speaker 3: all over the world, because Iran is the primary state

997
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 3: sponsor of terror as we know. And here is President Trump.

998
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:21,200
Speaker 3: He's he's getting closer and closer I think to action

999
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:22,320
Speaker 3: on this issue.

1000
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,880
Speaker 4: And here he is. This has cut twenty speaking.

1001
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,479
Speaker 3: About how Iran better not mess around than find out

1002
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,879
Speaker 3: by executing huge numbers of protesters.

1003
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,359
Speaker 4: But we'll see play twenty. The endgame is to win.

1004
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 4: I like winning. How do you define it in Iran?

1005
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 6: Well, let's define it in Venezuela. Let's define it without

1006
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,440
Speaker 6: Bagdaddy he was wiped out. Let's define it with Solomoni

1007
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,319
Speaker 6: and let's define it in Iran where he wiped out

1008
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 6: there Iren hopefully a threat in a period of about

1009
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 6: fifteen minutes. What's thee V two's got there?

1010
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:56,840
Speaker 4: And that was a complete obliteration.

1011
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 6: As it turns out, which is what I said initially.

1012
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,399
Speaker 6: Then some question and they said you your Trump was right.

1013
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,920
Speaker 6: So we've been right about everything. We don't want to

1014
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 6: see what's happening in Iran happened.

1015
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:08,000
Speaker 4: And you know, if they.

1016
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 6: Want to have protests, that's one thing.

1017
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:10,560
Speaker 4: When they start.

1018
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 6: Killing thousands of people, and now you're telling me about hanging,

1019
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 6: We'll see how that works out for them. It's not

1020
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 6: going to work out good.

1021
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:21,600
Speaker 3: Clay Let's also hear trump point is very similar. He's

1022
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 3: drawing lines in the sands, and I don't think they

1023
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 3: want to see what happens with the cross And this.

1024
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 4: Is cut five.

1025
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 3: Trump telling the Iranian regime watch yourself, oh h it

1026
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 3: will retaliate.

1027
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 2: In the instance of US strikes against.

1028
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: US assets in the Middle East, what do you say

1029
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 1: to US service members about why it's worth the risk

1030
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:42,640
Speaker 1: you're beinging on?

1031
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 6: Ron said that the last time I blow him up

1032
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 6: with the nuclear.

1033
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 2: Capability that which they don't have any longer.

1034
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 6: So Iron said that the last time they better.

1035
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:57,000
Speaker 4: Behaved, they better behave clay. They're not behaving, So now

1036
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 4: let's see what happens.

1037
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:02,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, and the president may be poised to speak

1038
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:07,200
Speaker 1: on this. It is after ten o'clock in Iran right now,

1039
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: for people out there who wonder what the time situation is.

1040
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 1: The biggest challenge buck is Elon Musk, to his credit,

1041
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 1: has unleashed Starlink, which has allowed some Iranians to get online,

1042
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:25,960
Speaker 1: and now the Iranian government has decided to sabotage starlink

1043
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 1: working in their country as well. I can't think of

1044
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: very many times when we basically had almost no ability

1045
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:37,920
Speaker 1: to see what's going on in a country in real time.

1046
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:41,200
Speaker 1: In other words, for all of the criticisms of Israel

1047
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:44,280
Speaker 1: and all the criticisms about what might happen in Gaza,

1048
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 1: the internet was never shut off there. Communication was always possible,

1049
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: and so there's always a lot of media coverage and

1050
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:56,440
Speaker 1: we see what's happening. We really don't know much of

1051
00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,279
Speaker 1: what's going on in Iran right now, and so one

1052
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 1: aspect of this has been trying to figure out how

1053
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:06,000
Speaker 1: to potentially allow the Iranian people to communicate. Here's the

1054
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 1: other thing, buck, how do we make the people of

1055
00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 1: Iran aware that the president of the United States supports

1056
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 1: them and supports their protest because the Iranian government has

1057
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 1: curtailed the ability to get information in there. You know,

1058
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 1: back in the day, this was how you would win

1059
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,719
Speaker 1: an information warfare. Do you remember what you would do.

1060
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,560
Speaker 1: You would fly planes over and you would just drop

1061
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 1: pamphlets and it would say in their language. I think

1062
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:35,080
Speaker 1: far see if I'm not mistaken, Hey, here is President

1063
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,880
Speaker 1: Trump supports your ability to protest. He wants people to

1064
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:39,920
Speaker 1: have basic human rights. He wants you to have freedoms.

1065
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,279
Speaker 1: He wants Iran to look like it did in the

1066
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: nineteen seventies before the Ayatola came into power, and so

1067
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 1: you would actually drop pamphlets and people would go out

1068
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:49,960
Speaker 1: and they'd pick them up and they'd be able to

1069
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 1: read what the American president or what the perspective was.

1070
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,960
Speaker 1: It's so hard to get that information. Now it should,

1071
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,160
Speaker 1: in theory, be way easier to communicate. But Iran has

1072
00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:04,719
Speaker 1: the ability to turn off everything it's supposedly in terms

1073
00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 1: of being able to communicate there, and I think it's

1074
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 1: striking propaganda on television.

1075
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,840
Speaker 3: I think a strike is coming, Clay, this is starting.

1076
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 3: It's I'm just gonna.

1077
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:18,240
Speaker 4: Point something out. This is gonna be a little crazy,

1078
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 4: but this is true.

1079
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,320
Speaker 3: The last time there was a major strike on Iran,

1080
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,920
Speaker 3: we were in the Oval Office with the President. You

1081
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 3: were just in the Oval Office with the President. And

1082
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:34,760
Speaker 3: there may be another major strike on Iran.

1083
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 4: The only that would be the only two.

1084
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:41,200
Speaker 3: Days I can think of where we have done anything

1085
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 3: on this scale in our lifetime. And I'm not saying

1086
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,360
Speaker 3: that there's a cause and effect to your Clay, but

1087
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,360
Speaker 3: I am saying some people might ask some questions.

1088
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,600
Speaker 1: Well, you and I don't do we say this on

1089
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:54,239
Speaker 1: the air. I'll say it on the air now. I

1090
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:55,919
Speaker 1: can't remember if we set it back. We talked about

1091
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 1: it off the air, you and I. I feel like

1092
00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:03,760
Speaker 1: in some way the White House press team was running

1093
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 1: around taking pictures of you and me in the Oval

1094
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,800
Speaker 1: Office with the President like crazy, and they immediately blasted

1095
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:13,360
Speaker 1: it out right before the attacks happened. And you know

1096
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 1: that they monitor what the president is doing on all

1097
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:20,800
Speaker 1: of these intelligence agencies and everything else, and I guarantee

1098
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 1: you they were like, ah, he's just meeting with a

1099
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:26,759
Speaker 1: couple of radio guys. There's nothing happening today, right White

1100
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 1: House photographer running around like crazy taking photos in the

1101
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:33,359
Speaker 1: Oval Office, just like when you and I were in there. Now,

1102
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,960
Speaker 1: I haven't seen those released yet, but I've been with

1103
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 1: the president before. We've met the president a bunch of times.

1104
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:42,920
Speaker 1: Now most of the time. You remember that, Like you

1105
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,440
Speaker 1: and I both when we left, we were like, man,

1106
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:49,399
Speaker 1: they took a lot of pictures. It definitely now maybe

1107
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 1: things are a little bit different. Maybe in Trump two

1108
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 1: point zero they're taking more photos. In general, that's always possible.

1109
00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:56,680
Speaker 1: But I definitely, in my back of my mind as

1110
00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:00,200
Speaker 1: they were running around taking photos like crazy, was thinking

1111
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: to myself, this feels like in June when you and

1112
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:04,800
Speaker 1: I were in there, and then we get back out

1113
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,960
Speaker 1: and that night we're sitting down to have dinner and boom,

1114
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,160
Speaker 1: all the attacks start to happen in Iran.

1115
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to feed the conspiracy theorist here. I'm

1116
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:16,160
Speaker 3: just saying, Clay and Bucker in the Oval Office, Irani

1117
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 3: nuclear program gets hit. Within hours, Clay goes to the

1118
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:24,680
Speaker 3: Oval Office, perhaps IRGC headquarters all over the country. You know,

1119
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:28,359
Speaker 3: we'll see, we'll see, but it is quite a quite

1120
00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,680
Speaker 3: a coincidence. Now, I do think that there will be

1121
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:33,719
Speaker 3: back into serious mode here. I do think that there

1122
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:36,440
Speaker 3: will be a strike of some kind. I don't know

1123
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:40,560
Speaker 3: what it will be. I don't know how much this is,

1124
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:45,080
Speaker 3: you know, it's still in the decision making phase.

1125
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 4: I don't know what the president.

1126
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:48,399
Speaker 3: My sense is if he's speaking the American people, he's

1127
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 3: preparing us for we're doing something here.

1128
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,279
Speaker 4: So I could be wrong on this one. I don't

1129
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:54,760
Speaker 4: have any.

1130
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:57,600
Speaker 1: Too Let me put this out two buck. We may

1131
00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:03,319
Speaker 1: not know because there's such a communication uh, inability to

1132
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,040
Speaker 1: get out things. You know, usually even back when when

1133
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: or when we hit Iran, like there was still a

1134
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:13,560
Speaker 1: lot of video and internet capability in the country. We

1135
00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:16,439
Speaker 1: could hit Iran and it might not be public for

1136
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:20,359
Speaker 1: several hours that we've done so because they don't have

1137
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,920
Speaker 1: the immediate communication capabilities to get out the video. You know. Normally,

1138
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 1: when there is an attack of some sort, we know

1139
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 1: we shut down all the communications in Venezuela, but sooner

1140
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:32,359
Speaker 1: or later it comes out and you say, oh, there's

1141
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:33,759
Speaker 1: a lot of burning buildings here.

1142
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 4: People here, when the planes come over, they hear.

1143
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,400
Speaker 1: The bombs coming down, and they take photos and videos

1144
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:43,280
Speaker 1: and it ends up distributed on x, Twitter, every social

1145
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 1: media platform. There may be such an information shutdown that

1146
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,520
Speaker 1: is going on, a blackout in Iran to such an

1147
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,839
Speaker 1: extent that we may have no idea it's happened until

1148
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:57,239
Speaker 1: the president comes out and says, hey, we just walloped them,

1149
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,720
Speaker 1: and again maybe or maybe or not it's gonna happen.

1150
00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:02,680
Speaker 4: Uh, but.

1151
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 1: I just feel like it's dark. If it's gonna happen,

1152
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen in the next couple of days. It

1153
00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:13,000
Speaker 1: would not surprise me if we're gonna get information soon

1154
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:16,320
Speaker 1: that we have done something or that we should.

1155
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:19,800
Speaker 4: At least be prepared for things things to happen. Uh.

1156
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,560
Speaker 3: Given what just what just went down in Venezuela, let's

1157
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:26,800
Speaker 3: just understand the Iranians paid close attention to that. Other

1158
00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:32,440
Speaker 3: countries have paid close attention to that Venezuela had Russian

1159
00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 3: anti aircraft systems. Now there's reporting that they hadn't really

1160
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,840
Speaker 3: set them up, which is sounds sounds about right for

1161
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 3: the Maduro regime, like they've they've got really fancy gear

1162
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 3: to try to stop this sort of a striking, Like, eh,

1163
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 3: maybe we'll set it up Manyana, you know, like they

1164
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 3: don't really care.

1165
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,720
Speaker 1: So very tropical buck, that's very often what happens in

1166
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:53,800
Speaker 1: the tropics. I we'll just do that tomorrow, We'll get

1167
00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 1: around to it. Let's have a Penia Colada.

1168
00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:58,680
Speaker 3: I think they made a miss misstep on that one,

1169
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 3: made a mistake in their assessment, and so we will see.

1170
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 4: But I do believe it.

1171
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:09,120
Speaker 3: The Iranian regime, Uh, look, it's it doesn't have many

1172
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,520
Speaker 3: good options here at all to strike at us.

1173
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:15,040
Speaker 4: And what are they really going to do?

1174
00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 3: Are they gonna have are they gonna if they activate

1175
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 3: some Hesbala cell that you know it kills a whole

1176
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 3: lot of American somewhere else in the world, or some

1177
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:24,400
Speaker 3: kind of a terror.

1178
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:25,800
Speaker 4: This has always been the fear clay.

1179
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:28,840
Speaker 3: Is that or the concern that's out there is if

1180
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:32,400
Speaker 3: we do anything that's too aggressive with Iran. Keep in mind,

1181
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 3: we blew ups, actually Trump blew up cost some Solomani,

1182
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 3: which I remember in the Iraq office we were told, oh,

1183
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:40,640
Speaker 3: you can't do anything about that.

1184
00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:42,160
Speaker 4: Guy, can't do anything.

1185
00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:44,720
Speaker 3: All it would it would I would completely you know,

1186
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:48,480
Speaker 3: bring things to a boiling point, trump blew them up

1187
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,920
Speaker 3: and nothing happened. They fired some missiles at a base

1188
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:53,800
Speaker 3: and that was the end of it. So I think

1189
00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 3: that we shouldn't convince ourselves that the Iranian military capability

1190
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:01,280
Speaker 3: is substantially more than it is. And if they were

1191
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,280
Speaker 3: to do something really foolish, okay, well then we're just

1192
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,040
Speaker 3: gonna go full tout, you know, full you know, al

1193
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:09,520
Speaker 3: Qaeda on them, so to speak. We're al Qaeda hunting

1194
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 3: and everybody involved. We're gonna track them down, We're gonna

1195
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 3: blow up their house. I mean, is that really what

1196
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 3: they want? They don't have any good options.

1197
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 1: I'll also point out Russia and China did nothing after

1198
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 1: we took Maduro out of Venezuela. This whole idea that

1199
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:28,840
Speaker 1: there was a axis of evil relationship between Russia, China

1200
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 1: and Iran, for instance, I think what you're seeing is

1201
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: that is not actual substance much behind it, because Russia

1202
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:42,240
Speaker 1: did nothing when we took Maduro. China did nothing. They

1203
00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 1: didn't stand up at all for Iran when Israel came in,

1204
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:47,280
Speaker 1: and then we came on top of that and took

1205
00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:51,400
Speaker 1: out their nuclear capabilities and ambitions. My point is I'm

1206
00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 1: not sure Iran actually has any allies at all, And

1207
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,080
Speaker 1: a lot of times you have to look behind the curtains.

1208
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 1: What is said in front one of the curtains may

1209
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 1: be one thing behind the curtains. I think there are

1210
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 1: a lot of people saying, yeah, we need to get

1211
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:09,280
Speaker 1: these guys out of here, including Middle East, certainly Russia, China.

1212
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 1: I just don't think there's any real allies there. And

1213
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:14,959
Speaker 1: so again, maybe we're going to find out something during

1214
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 1: the course of today's programs as this continues to play

1215
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:24,120
