If this 34 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: thing goes sideways, the next thing, you know, we devolve 35 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: into some type of bizarre Marshall state and the whole 36 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 1: thing blows up in front of us. And unfortunately, I, 37 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: along with I think millions of other Americans, had gotten 38 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: to this bizarre state in the summer of twenty twenty 39 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: four that you know, this is a real possibility that somehow, 40 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 1: somewhere our country has devolved into this place where there's 41 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: enough animosity, there's enough rhetoric, there's enough propaganda, there's enough 42 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: assault on our civil liberties. That people were, in many 43 00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: many cases advocating for some type of catastrophic event to 44 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: take place in order for us to go toe to 45 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: toe with each other. Now, obviously, the people that invested 46 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: in that much spewing that much hatreds against one side 47 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: of the other, right, they they have never spent one 48 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: friggin second in an actual war zone. They've never actually 49 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: read the books about the Civil War, Shelby Foot's books, right, 50 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: they never even you know, even while you know, watching 51 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: ken Burns documentary did an amazing job of displaying the 52 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: true carnage of what took place on American soil against 53 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: one one another, whether it was Gettysburg or bull Run 54 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: or even the March to the Sea. You know what 55 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: happened to Atlanta and all these other places, man, and 56 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: how we just we butchered one another because of our 57 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: economic disputes, are moral disputes or whatever it was. And 58 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: so you know, and look at what happened as a 59 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: result of that. Assassination and assassinations are not we shouldn't 60 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: say they're uncommon. Obviously, We're forty seven presidents, and how 61 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: many of them have either been assassinated or attempts on 62 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: their lives, and so people want to believe that democracy 63 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: is this you know, tried and true and tested thing 64 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: that can endure all of the hardships of all these 65 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: different types of ideas, but unfortunately it can't. And it 66 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: happens when when when whatever side you want to call 67 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: it this side, verse that side, or pitted against you 68 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: in this craziness. Right, I think there's you know, what 69 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: you have to begin to analyze is how did this 70 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: take place? And if it's if you're like me, it 71 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: really began with the assault on Trump during his first 72 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 1: term and what I really began to understand about the 73 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: whole russi Agate fiasco and where that was. And just recently, 74 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: I think last week or so, there was an assessment 75 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: that came out that a major news organization did this 76 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: on prime time and talked about the fact that is 77 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: now vel it very well. Whare because we've internally at 78 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 1: the Bureau, they've seen the investigation that was conducted that 79 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton ordered that whole thing to go down. She 80 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: gave the go ahead the thumbs up because she was 81 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: worried about the email scandal, because she was worried about 82 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: what was going to take place, the corruption within the 83 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: Clinton Foundation went on in eighty all these catastrophic things 84 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: ben Ghazi, the Uranium deal, all of this stuff that 85 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: propped her up as a person that I don't believe 86 00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: is very folk has done anything other than you know, 87 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: her own rise to the pinnacle of power, you know. 88 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: And out of that what we saw is for me, 89 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: it was this cascading thing that really kind of blew 90 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: up for me and became a reality, you know, leading 91 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: up to twenty twenty. I get locked out of my 92 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: couple of my social media accounts and all my friends 93 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: are getting you know, censored, and we see censorship begin 94 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: to explode in nineteen twenty and you know twenty one, 95 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: I mean, it was just madness, like where is this 96 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: coming from? And now we know, with the incredible work 97 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: that Mike Ben's has done, is that there had been 98 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: developed a censorship industrial complex, right and this was the 99 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: same organizations NGOs funded by USAID and other government funded 100 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: organizations that would get together and it really started overseas, 101 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 1: you know, whether it was you know, uh, you know, 102 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: discouraging candidates or through social media attempts, you know, the 103 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: rise of color revolutions, and in many cases the actual 104 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: funding of of of the media in many different places, 105 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: and we know that was true as well. And so 106 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: you have this political turmoil fueled by propaganda and censorship 107 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: of one group versus another. And then obviously the COVID 108 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: thing is just just exacerbated this whole thing, Like wait 109 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: a minute, you're telling me one thing and this whole 110 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: other thing is is actually true. And we all know, 111 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: you know, six feet made up masks worse the shot 112 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: and the catastrophic impot fact that that shot is having. 113 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: And still to this day, it's it's people aren't recognizing 114 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: the dramatic nature of whether it was hard inflammation or 115 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: turbo cancers that are taking place right now. I mean, 116 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: this is this is all you know madness, right, or 117 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: democratic madness or republic madness, or however you want to 118 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: describe it, and whoever what you want to point the 119 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: finger at whose fault it was. But this was the scenario. 120 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: You were either you know, a Nazi, or you were 121 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: a socialist, you were a fascist, or you were a Marxist. 122 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: You were against democracy or you were for democracy, and 123 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: it was like this was how we were pitted against 124 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: each other. And what I ultimately believe it was is 125 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: you know, it's kind of our traditional conservative values versus 126 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: kind of a postmodernistic socialist values that were now being 127 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: pitted head to head, or as light a lot of 128 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: people want to say, it was you know, wokee verse 129 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: tradition or whatever moniker, the elites or the experts or 130 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, trust the scientists or whatever whoever was spewing 131 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: this hatred out which ultimately pitted us all together against 132 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: each other. Now now you know, again, I'm not any 133 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: better than anybody else out man. I got sucked into it. 134 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: I mean there was times where I was, you know, 135 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: pretty dogmatic about my stance. On the other side, Well, 136 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, you're this and you're this, and no I didn't. 137 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: I didn't do it publicly because I've been silenced, but 138 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: you know, with I was willing to go toe to 139 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: total with people as I was traveling around the country 140 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: given speeches, and you know, I had to be very 141 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: delicate why I did it and how I did it. 142 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: But I you know, I was pushing these things that 143 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: I had spent an incredible amount of time researching and 144 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: understanding and what the arguments were. Now all that built 145 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: up to what you know, and the other one that 146 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: really kind of got me was was kind of the 147 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: disruption to the democratic process, in particular for Biden, once 148 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: they decided to, you know, can that guy, which was 149 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: a good choice because he was ultimately incompetent and we 150 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: all knew that for years, right, But then the way 151 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: they went in and just report placed him with Kamala Harris, 152 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: which you know, of course, hey, we're going to do this, 153 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: do that. She's like, yep, sure, what do you want 154 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: me to say? I mean, that's ultimately what it seems 155 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: like people who have this desire to ascend to this 156 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: high position of power, right, It's like who's ever pulling 157 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: their strings? They tell them what they say, and they say, well, 158 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: you know, they essentially just eradicated the entire primary process. 159 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: So you see all these things, and that's what sparks 160 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: this animosity. So if you're if you're trying to understand 161 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: why people are at each other's throats as much, you know, 162 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: do yourself a favor and dig into some of these 163 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: realities in a little bit deeper way, because now it's 164 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: it's become very apparent through you know, I think ultimately 165 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: because X was purchased by Elon Musk, and we finally 166 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 1: had a true free speech platform where people could share 167 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: their ideas, which is ultimately what is the the epitome 168 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 1: of what holds a societ together in a meaningful way 169 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: When one idea can be tested against, you know, a 170 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: whole series of other ideas, which one of the ideas 171 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: has is the best foundation, and then let people make 172 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: the decisions. I e. That's why we the First Amendment 173 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: is what it is. And so we get to this 174 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: place in the fall, and it's this crescendo and all 175 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know what, you know, America and 176 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: the majority we think of Americans. Although polling is always 177 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: a joke, right, we now know after years and years 178 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: and years of just ridiculous polling that you know, it's 179 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: all manipulated. But you had a sense of a feeling. 180 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: And for me, as I was traveling around the country, 181 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: you know, going to states and you know, you know, 182 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: twenty five thirty states a year for twenty twenty one, 183 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three, twenty twenty four, you 184 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: know what, it was pretty clear what America wanted, or 185 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: the majority of America, they wanted America to stop being 186 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: engaged in wars. Now, for me, this is the epitome, 187 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: this is the stance that in my old age, and 188 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: there was this you know guy I follow and really 189 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: enjoy his podcasts out there, you know, and you know, 190 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: he kind of framed it like this, Like when I 191 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: was a young man, you know, and I went into 192 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: the service, I was, I was much more prone to 193 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: go to war. I wanted to go and stand up 194 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: for what I believed in and be willing to fight 195 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: for the things that I believed America represented, as did I. 196 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: And then after what we know now about what war 197 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: actually looks like and the impact on civilians in particular, right, 198 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 1: the impoverished people, children, right, women, the elderly. I mean, 199 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: it's devastating. It's devastating all the way around. And so 200 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: you know, now as I'm an old man, I'm a 201 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: crusty old frog man, I don't want to go to 202 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: war more. And I don't want young men to go 203 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: to war and die for something that's not really what 204 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: it is. I don't want to expend any more courage 205 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: needlessly and in places that ultimately don't have our best 206 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: interests at hand. And that's a reality. And so you know, 207 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,079 Speaker 1: I think no more wars, right, stop wars, that's good. 208 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: The other one is to stop the invasion of our country. 209 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: I think it's you know, and this is the irony. 210 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: And you know, you go back, I don't know, you 211 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: go back when Clinton was running and even before. I 212 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: mean there are clips now that are emerging that she's 213 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: actually more mag than Trump is, right in terms of 214 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: their immigration policies and and and that's a reality. But 215 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: what do we do. We depend upon where you know, 216 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: the people who are going to fund our campaigns. You know, 217 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: we'll shift a little bit left or right, I guess 218 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: is how it works. But the other one was America 219 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: wanted to stop the agration because small towns all over 220 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: the country were feeling the impact. And I know, the 221 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: automatic thing that people want to say is it's crime 222 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: shot through the roof and and it certainly went up 223 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: in many places, and it certainly, but I think that 224 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: was more a result of pullback on policing from twenty 225 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: twenty and kind of you know, the defund the police 226 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: madness and all of that. And I think, you know, 227 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: also this wave of criminal a criminal element that came 228 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: in and you know, and if you don't believe that 229 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: all you got to do is look at statistics that 230 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: are placed by the you know, un and other people 231 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: that go into these regions that have high crime rates 232 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: and in these very significant crime areas crime dipped. Why 233 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: because they were all these people were coming into America 234 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: for the American Dream or whatever that monthly amount was, 235 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: and your your you know, your debit card and your 236 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: cell phone and you're you know, staying in New York 237 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: City at some nice hotel and getting three squares and 238 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: a hot meal a day, and you know, and all 239 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: these other things. So we have this mass immigration that 240 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: as you there's a lot of people out there who've 241 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: done incredible work. Michael Yahn, Ben Berkwam, Oscar Mirez. I mean, 242 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: these people have been very in depth in how they've 243 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: evaluated who's funding it, where it's coming from. And it's 244 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: not just America, it's in England and it's all these 245 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:31,359 Speaker 1: other places. And and you have to realize that immigration 246 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: is good, very very fired up. I love when people 247 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: can come seek out the American dream, you know, and 248 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: invigorate communities with their culture and with their ideas and 249 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: their hard work and all of that. But there's another 250 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: aspect with cultures that don't want to assimilate, that want 251 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: to set up their own their own enclaves of of 252 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: of of potentially counter culture to what the American spirit, 253 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: at least as I see it, is really important on 254 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: and so stop integration. Everybody got that we need to 255 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: stuff stifle the tide of immigration because it's destroying communities. Now, 256 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: whatever you reason, and I'll do a show in the 257 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 1: future about how it was funded, where it came from, 258 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: the sophisticated nature of it, the impacts, all the different 259 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: economic influences on what was driving it. I believe political 260 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: issues from a voting increasing voting block. We'll go. We'll 261 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: do that right now. I don't remember. This is just 262 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: an evaluation of the first hundred days a sit rep 263 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: a situation report. The other one I think was really 264 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: kind of the stop Corruption. I think what we really 265 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: began to see is there was some profoundly corrupt things 266 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: taking place, whether it was corruption in the judicial system, 267 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: a two tiered justice system. I just did a show 268 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: about that, and I hope it was meaningful you to 269 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: understand kind of how it works with the judges and 270 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: who picks, and how it goes, and how it's become ideal, 271 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: but you know, that spills out into all different formulas. 272 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: And I think now what we've also seen through DOG 273 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: is the corruption within government itself is pretty staggering. It's 274 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: pretty staggering. Now. I've always known corruption was there because 275 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: you know, I spent a lot of time not only 276 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: working for DoD but working for the military industrial complex 277 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: as well as working for the intelligence community. And you know, 278 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: I mean government contracts are big business, right and from 279 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: the defense industry. And then obviously, as we talked about before, 280 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 1: with the censorship industrial complex NGOs, immigration industrial complex with 281 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: other NGOs, and the amount of money that was flowing 282 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: in my taxpayer dollars, your tax payer dollars was just astronomical. 283 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: And so what people wanted to stop corruption, stop wokeism, right, 284 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: this whole idea that there needs to be some type 285 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 1: of equitable restructuring of society, that somehow, somewhere, someplace, I 286 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: should recognize that that I've been an oppressor in some capacity, 287 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: and I need to make shame my children to think 288 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: they're oppressors in some capacity. I just don't get that, man, 289 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: because I mean, there's no end to this, and we 290 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: I think we see this playing out in a lot 291 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: of geopolitical situations all over the country. It's like, how 292 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: far back do I have to go to realize, you 293 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: know before, I'm not an oppressor or the legacy of 294 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: who I am or what I am or where I 295 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 1: come from is not oppressive. And that's that was never explained. 296 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: I mean, you saw Matt Walsh's well, you know what 297 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: is a woman? I mean the fundamental defining principles of 298 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 1: of of of biology. All of a sudden we're in question. 299 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: And I think when you saw that, fuse into the 300 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: educational system, and don't get me started in the education 301 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,239 Speaker 1: Jordi and I are are working on a show for that. 302 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: We're going to go deep dive on that one here 303 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 1: in the next couple of weeks and really flushed that 304 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: out and where it began and the manipulation of the 305 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: curriculum and all that. But what we saw is we 306 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: saw people wanting to introduce sexual ideology to our children. 307 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: And then what happened Those people were thrown in jail 308 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: as a result of standing up for what they believed in. 309 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: And so people got to a place where they're like, 310 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: enough of enough, this is insane, this is ridiculous. So 311 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: stop war, stop immigration right, stop the corruption, stop wokeism. 312 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: And the other one that I think really you need 313 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: to understand, and this is the ultimate backbone of America society, 314 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: is the attack on small businesses. When we saw COVID hit, right, 315 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: how many millions of small businesses were destroyed. Meanwhile you 316 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: had the John F. Kennedy's Center out and or not 317 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: the Performance Center in Washington, d C. Get one hundred 318 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: and fifty five million dollars in COVID relief fund, or 319 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: you had very you had famous stars or people getting 320 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, three four nine million dollars for their organizations. 321 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: Meanwhile they're billionaires. And you know, I freaked out because 322 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: I tried to take I got a forty five thousand 323 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 1: dollars to make sure my business didn't collapse because I couldn't. 324 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 1: I didn't have any revenue or income to feed my 325 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: four kids. So I think the tack on small businesses 326 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: really reshaped people's ideas too. And then the other aspect 327 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: of that, and that we've been talking quite a bit 328 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: about this show, is what how are young people going 329 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,199 Speaker 1: to afford the American dream? How hard is it to 330 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: go out and get approved for a lot of credit 331 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 1: or how hard is it to find a space that 332 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: you can afford for rent and start your business? And 333 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: you know, but you know, thankfully, if you were positioned 334 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 1: right and you had the technical acumen or or just 335 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 1: the drive and motivation to work hard and to grind right, 336 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: there were some great successes. Online businesses flourished. But what 337 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: we also saw in that time was a massive consolidation. Right. 338 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: We saw retail collapse, we saw other forms collapse. And 339 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: what who got stronger? Big business? Man? Now again, don't 340 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: I'm not attacking that. I'm I'm a fundamental you know capitalist. 341 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: I believe in you know, the best product, the best 342 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: service will rise to the top. But when those uh, 343 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,719 Speaker 1: when those metrics can be adjusted by the people that 344 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: allow commerce or the funnel of commerce that goes through them, 345 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: whether it's your you know, whether or not your app 346 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: gets seen, or your app get you know, reduced, or 347 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 1: your YouTube videos get throttled or whatever it might be. 348 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: You know, there was an attack on small business for sure. 349 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: And then you know the last one, obviously is is 350 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: government overreach? Man? I you know again, I just I'm 351 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 1: not the type of person that doesn't believe that government 352 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: doesn't play a massive role in our lives, as it should. 353 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: You know, there's there's you know, literally thousands of great 354 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,439 Speaker 1: things that the government is able to do for people 355 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 1: every year and around the world as well too. But 356 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 1: I think what we all realize now is that with 357 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: every catastrophic circumstance that takes place the government encroaches, it 358 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: takes that one more bigger bite into our liberty, It 359 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: takes one more bigger bite into that the idea that 360 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: we are free, that we we are in a way 361 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: we are the masters of our own destiny. And I 362 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: think for sure what COVID really enabled people to feel 363 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: for the first time is that that's in a bigger 364 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: jeopardy than we imagined it was, and that it's time 365 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: to pay attention of those liberties. And what's happening. The 366 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 1: one for me that I still can't get over to 367 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 1: this day now, you know, thank God they're trying to 368 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: right these wrongs, was young men and women that raised 369 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: their right hand in order to stand up and wear 370 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: the uniform and fight for us, and fight represent us 371 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: and around the world and represent American might and strength. 372 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: They were kicked out of their of fulfilling their dream 373 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: because it wouldn't take a shot. It wouldn't take the 374 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 1: COVID shot. And that's tyranny. And I think we saw 375 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: it in many different ways. And so you know, this 376 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 1: is pretty substantial list. And that's why I believe we 377 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: got where we are today. We got our back in November, 378 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: where overwhelming numbers came out. Right, it's landslide numbers, huge numbers. 379 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: And don't even get me started about the phantom thirteen 380 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: million numbers that a little sleepy Joe got back in 381 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. It's funny how when you look at Obama's 382 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 1: numbers and then you look at Trump's first numbers, and 383 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 1: then you look at Biden's numbers, and then you look 384 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 1: at Trump's numbers, it's just a little bit, a little 385 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: bit suspicious. And I think we're going to see some 386 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: of that coming out here in the future. But really 387 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: it was not only the grassroots campaign, but it was 388 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: this shift away from craziness, a way to back to 389 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 1: common sense. And I truly believe that the majority of you, 390 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: what you truly want is you want to live in 391 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: a common sense world. Hey. And so there was this shift, 392 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: and you saw people from the left come up over 393 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: and say all right, We're done with that madness, the 394 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: true you know, a fringe stuff, and I you know, 395 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 1: and I think people got in, including minorities, highest rates 396 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: of black men, you know, Hispanic men voting for Trump 397 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: and this new idea to reinvigorate the American dream, to 398 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: make America great again. So that took place, and I 399 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: think everybody, including me, was like, all right, I could 400 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: go put all my all my prepper stuff back in 401 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: my storage facility. I can I can you stop building 402 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: out kids for my kids? I can, you know, I 403 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: plate replace all my AMMO in a more safe and 404 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: secure place, and I can stop having you know, a 405 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: ton of fuel in my garag right, and I can 406 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: take that cyhl relief and stop being such a job 407 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: thinking that the world was going to end, or at 408 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: least we were going to go into we were going 409 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: to go into you know, potential civil war. And that 410 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: was a good feeling. It really felt good. I know 411 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: you felt good. I know everybody felt good. You know, 412 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: I think some of the people on both sides of 413 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: their fringe they never feel good. But it is what 414 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: it is. Right. You can't please but those of us 415 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: who really believe and the fundamental things that enable us 416 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 1: to coexist together in a way that's positive, right, you know, 417 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: not giving up what you believe in or your culture 418 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 1: or anything, but to recognize, hey, you do your thing, 419 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: I'll do my thing. As long as you're not hurting me, 420 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: you're not attacking me, you're not creating violence, have at it, man, 421 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: And I think that's the way the overwhelming majority of 422 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: people believe. I know, I believe that even though I've 423 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 1: seen a lot of different things in this world. I've 424 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 1: been exposed to things that are are are pretty heavy, 425 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: But on the flip side, I've also been exposed to 426 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: the real beauty of what people are capable when they're 427 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: focused and driven and they're inspired and they want to 428 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: make a difference in the world.

We're done, 494 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: Let's take a break, Let's get our stuff dialed in. 495 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: Rebuild the military, rebuild our equipment, get us, but no 496 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: more wards. And so you know what I've seen from 497 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: this gentleman, and as he's gone out, and he's really 498 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: uh reinvigorated diplomacy. Now, many people don't recognize that diplomacy 499 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: is all about compromise, and what you have to be 500 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: willing to do is give up some of what you 501 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: want in order to get the grander idea of this thing. 502 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: And so based on one of you know, Trump's most 503 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: important promises that I've I really got behind, was he's 504 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: gonna end Ukraine right in Russia, that he's gonna end 505 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: the thing going on with Israel and Hamas and Hesbla 506 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: and Palestinians. He's going to end that. He's going to 507 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: do it immediately, and so I was like, who, yeah, well, 508 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: obviously that's much more complicated than a phone call and 509 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: being like, hey, Vladimir, here's the deal. I'll turn on 510 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: the pipeline, I'll take the restrictions off. Stop you know, 511 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: stop killing Ukrainian kids, and let's have at it. No 512 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: worry about little Zelensky. I got him right. And we 513 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: all imagine, well, guess what out and we've seen the 514 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: bombing pick up. Rubio is walking away. Lot nick I 515 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: just want to hope and believe that he's still fighting. 516 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,719 Speaker 1: Let's keep doing this, let's keep negotiating, and he's just 517 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: done a really I think again, and I've got no 518 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: inside knowledge of what he's doing, but the way he 519 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: speaks about peace and the way he speaks about ending 520 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: these wars, man, it just it got me excited. So 521 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: I give him a B plus. Right, So keep that going. 522 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: Bring diplomacy back to the highest level. Let's really invest 523 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: in diplomacy, all right, Marco Rubio, all right, this was 524 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: the one that I was not expecting to be where 525 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: he was. You know, I just have that burning Oversight 526 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: Committee hearing that I saw with where he interviewed Victoria 527 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: Newland and had the dialogue back and forth, do we 528 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: have biological weapons or not? But do we have biolab 529 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: research labs in Ukraine? Yes. Meanwhile everybody would be saying 530 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: we don't have this, nothing's going on whatever, And so 531 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: now I'm like, oh my god, that's that's that's monst met, 532 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: that's that's humongous, like go dig in, let's hear like 533 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: drill down. And it was like one more question and 534 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: it was over. So I was not a fan because 535 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: I think I had this impression that he was kind 536 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: of this old neocon. But what I've seen, I'm I'm 537 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: actually impressed. I think he's He's so far a good 538 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: representation of the diplomatic presence that we need, right firm, strong, 539 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: but but willing to make concessions, willing to work with 540 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: people and where what their country actually wants. We have 541 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: this bizarre way and in the media, and we kind 542 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 1: of know why to manipulate the fact that that diplomacy 543 00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,479 Speaker 1: is a bad thing, that you can't negotiate with terrorists, 544 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: you can't negotiate with tyrints, you can't nego And I'm like, well, 545 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: that's what you got. You got what you got, So 546 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do. Are you going to deny 547 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: this and just let it compound and get worse and 548 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: more people die and let it spill into a much 549 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: greater problem, or are you going to actually get to 550 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: the table and go over to these places in Qatar 551 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: and Saudi Arabia or Bahrain or Dubai and have these 552 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:30,240 Speaker 1: negotiations in Turkey and poland wherever you are, and actually 553 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: sit down across from another person and say, listen, what 554 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: do you want? All right, what do you want? We 555 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: would like this? All right, let's start there. Now, let's negotiate. 556 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 1: So I've been incredibly pleased with Mark Rubio's performance. I'm 557 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: giving him a C plus. C plus mostly because you 558 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:59,240 Speaker 1: know some of the proverbial ways with which President Trump 559 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: is maybe going out a little bit over his skis 560 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,879 Speaker 1: and then reeling it back and saying, you know, I'll 561 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 1: have this thing done in a week as maybe a 562 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: little bit, but I get it. He's a you know, 563 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: he's playing poker. I know that's the wrong term to 564 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: use because we're talking about new World War three and 565 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: nuclear genocide. But but remember, like there's a gamesmanship in this. 566 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 1: You have to think about what are the tactical approaches 567 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: when you're negotiating with somebody. How do you bait them? 568 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: How do you take their bait? How do you you know, 569 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 1: what do you what is this game that's going back 570 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: and and that's what it did, That's what it is. 571 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,879 Speaker 1: So you know, C plus. But keep it up, keep going, sir. 572 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: I'm behind you. I want more diplomacy, all right. Next, 573 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: as Susie Wiles, obviously she is at the center of 574 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 1: of of Trump's internal world, you know, between her and 575 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I didn't I didn't rate Steven Miller. 576 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: Uh maybe I'll talk about him in the future. I'd 577 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: love to interview him. I really would love to hear 578 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 1: his thoughts or watch somebody else really dig on and 579 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 1: not just be the pounding that he's doing on people 580 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: calling them out to their faces, although that needs to happen. 581 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: You know, all those who spewed lies for as long 582 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 1: as they did, absolutely call him out forsome. But I'm 583 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: not prepared. But Susie Wiles, you know, is kind of 584 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: the orchestrator of this whole thing. She runs Trump's world. 585 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: And you know, I was first introduced to her a 586 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: good friend of mine, John Pugh, was in charge of 587 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: Palm Beach County Trump campaign back in twenty sixteen, and 588 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,320 Speaker 1: he and I were able to, you know, spend a 589 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 1: little time together. It's really fascinating to watch him. And 590 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: back then she was really running Florida, you know, leading 591 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,359 Speaker 1: in Florida, and you know, had great things to say 592 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: about her, A very sophisticated woman, very sophisticated political operative, 593 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: if you will, and so you know the things that 594 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: Trump seems to have a very strong confidence in her, 595 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: and so do the people behind her. So I'm going 596 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 1: to give her pass because I just don't have enough 597 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: information about kind of the inner workings of what's going on. 598 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 1: But maybe in the future, I'd love to get her 599 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 1: on the show if you ever want to do an interview. 600 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: All right, Next we go to Cash Ptel. All right, 601 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: oh cash Man, Now you got to understand the work 602 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:28,919 Speaker 1: that he and Devin Nunez did to investigate Russia Gate 603 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 1: was the first big, big shaking of the system, whether 604 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,839 Speaker 1: you call it the deep state, the blob, whatever you help, 605 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 1: however you want to call it, he was those two 606 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 1: really dug in this and brilliant guy, great investigator, great attorney. 607 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 1: They got in and they rattled the cages, and then 608 00:37:54,480 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 1: afterwards they were absolutely prosecuted for their political value a valuations. 609 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 1: My favorite stuff is what you know, Cash's testimony that 610 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: he gave to the January sixth Committee, where it was 611 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: evident and clear that the order was, you know, put out, hey, 612 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 1: do you want the National Guard?

And we also know that that testimony 617 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,399 Speaker 1: was not made public in any way, shape or form, 618 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: And so for the next four years, we saw this 619 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: dude to go on just about every podcast there was 620 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: and he's banging on his fists on the table and 621 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: he's I'm gonna do this and if we get in there, 622 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: we're going to clean up the corruption at the bureau. 623 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna I would, you know, move the Bureau out 624 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 1: of DC and I would get rid of all this 625 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: and we're gonna go after Comy and we're going to 626 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: go after this and blah blah, and you know, it's 627 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: just pounding that drum right, whipping that magabase into a 628 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: phrazy oh. You know from the Wolf of Wall Street. 629 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: That's what that dude was doing. He was banging those drums. 630 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 1: And I'll admit on some of the shows he was on, 631 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 1: you know, I'd be like looking in the camera like youah, 632 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 1: all right, let's just tear it down. And well, he 633 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: got that opportunity, didn't he. And his confirmation hearings were 634 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 1: hoot and all the stuff that came out about him 635 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: and what they were trying to do. But you know, 636 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: he's been in there, and I think his undertaking is 637 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: probably the most significant challenge out there other than Pete 638 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: Hegseth right, because your your law enforcement has really been 639 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: the thing that I think most of us have been 640 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 1: who pay close attention to what's taking place, has been 641 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: the problem. It's like, you know, the people that are 642 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: supposed to be enforcing laws regardless of political affiliation, we 643 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 1: know that's just not how it worked. And so what 644 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: you have to do is what and I believe what 645 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: he's trying to do is get in there and reinforce.

I mean, you know, 655 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: seeing them down in Florida a couple weeks ago with 656 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 1: this half a billion dollar bus man that was that 657 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 1: made me feel really good, really good. However, part of 658 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: what he ran on too is like, man, we're taking 659 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: down all these nefarious groups and we're gonna take him 660 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 1: down and we're gonna diet them for treason, and we're 661 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,879 Speaker 1: gonna go after the Epstein clients, and we're gonna blah 662 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: blah blah and this and and so obviously, uh, those 663 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 1: investigations take time and take this. So when I'm gonna 664 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: give ohld cash there and and you know, I hope 665 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 1: you you stay true to what she told us, I'm 666 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,839 Speaker 1: gonna give him a pass on this one right now, because, uh, 667 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: some of these critical issues that we need to see 668 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:32,279 Speaker 1: take place, those take time and and and the other 669 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,800 Speaker 1: one is too, is I'm gonna give Bongino a pass 670 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 1: because he's brand new. He's figuring out what they got 671 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 1: to do in terms of where to go. And then 672 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 1: I'm also going to give Pambondi a pass as well. 673 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 1: And the reason I'm gonna give Pambomni pass instead of 674 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 1: a low grade is because of a gentleman that I 675 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 1: love to follow. His name is Mike Davis with the 676 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: Article three project. He's on the war room quite a bit, 677 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 1: and he was just on the other day and saying 678 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: that he's spoken to some of the people within that 679 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:11,480 Speaker 1: he knows the guy's the deputy of Pambondi and some 680 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 1: of the other places, and he reassured the audience that 681 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 1: don't worry. These investigations are taking place. And remember when 682 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: you think about an investigation, what's the key? The key 683 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:29,399 Speaker 1: is can the prosecution can they get a conviction? Right? 684 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: You have to remember that I did the thing on 685 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: the legal system, and we know some of it is 686 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 1: a little broken or a little warped, or however you 687 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: want to talk about it. So the key is can 688 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 1: you get a conviction? Right? Can you get a conviction 689 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 1: with a jury trial? And can you get a conviction 690 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:51,800 Speaker 1: that sticks with the relative punishment that's just and that 691 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: that will fulfill what the whole prosecution, the time, the money, 692 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: the manpower is behind in order to be able to 693 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: really be conclusive with what needs to be conclusive. Right, 694 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 1: So all those guys get a pass right now. But 695 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,720 Speaker 1: guess what, that pass ain't gonna go for that much longer. 696 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,320 Speaker 1: So we need to see something. Man. There's plenty of 697 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 1: evidence for all these different things. We know the evidence. 698 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:22,280 Speaker 1: We've heard enough from all these House judicial oversight commissions, 699 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,799 Speaker 1: all these other places. You know, we just know the 700 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: evidence is there, So you know, waiting next is Pete. Heseat, 701 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 1: poor Pete, Man, you're just under assault, buddy. I know. 702 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,360 Speaker 1: I was on Tutor Diction show recently and I stared 703 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: at the camera and I called out Sean and Pete 704 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: and I said, hey, man, enough of the dog and ponies. 705 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: All right, recruitment's up. Commercials are good, looks, good young 706 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: men are wanting to come in and serve again. But man, 707 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 1: get yourself in that building because that building, one trillion 708 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 1: dollar budget building. That building has an entrenched bureaucracy in 709 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: it that I think most people can't even fathom. And 710 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 1: you know, I think things maybe are getting away from 711 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: Pete a little bit. That's at least the outside feeling. 712 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,760 Speaker 1: Now again, we have no idea what's going on behind 713 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 1: closed doors, what are the arguments, what's happening. We definitely 714 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 1: know there's an attack on Pete. They're from all different directions, 715 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,439 Speaker 1: both inside the building, both from the intelligence world, both 716 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:35,240 Speaker 1: from all the military industrial complex who feel like they're 717 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:39,359 Speaker 1: good deals going away, all the NGOs, all the think tanks. Man, 718 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 1: that's a sizeable enemy force that is coming at him. 719 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,839 Speaker 1: But this is the key, right because of what I 720 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 1: believe is the number one place that America needs to 721 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: believe in, which is the thing that has crossed lines, 722 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 1: regardless of what you believe in the background, what color 723 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 1: your skin, what religion is, any of that stuff, socioeconomic background, 724 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:09,840 Speaker 1: as people believe in what the military represents, and so 725 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: that needs to take place. So whatever he needs to 726 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: do to get in there and root out that rot 727 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 1: and get that structure back to where it needs to 728 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: be to support the warfire, to support America as the 729 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 1: power that it is in the world in a positive way, 730 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 1: then that's good. So I give Pete C minus, but 731 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,240 Speaker 1: very easily he could flip that around, all right. Next 732 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:38,439 Speaker 1: jd Vance aplus dude, E five mafia brother.

We're not doing anything 738 00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 1: that's not based on meritocracy and the right things. America. 739 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,239 Speaker 1: It's it's over. It's done. Plus, I'll tell you what 740 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: the thing that melts me, man is is that dude 741 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:10,439 Speaker 1: truly loves his family.

Who yeah, all right, let's get to 847 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: Trump's green m Now. I went round and round for 848 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: this in ways you can't even fathom. And so without 849 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:13,920 Speaker 1: going down the deepest rabbit holes, because I could do 850 00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:15,880 Speaker 1: a whole show just on him, and maybe I'll do 851 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: that in the future, I'm gonna just come right out. 852 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give Donald Trump a pass. And the only 853 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 1: reason why I'm not giving them somewhere around a C 854 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 1: plus or B minus, is two reasons. One end in 855 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:34,399 Speaker 1: those wars. Uh. That's what I need to have happen, man, 856 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 1: I need you to pull those wars back. I need 857 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 1: to come back from the precipice of World War three 858 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 1: as well as another hot war in the Middle East. 859 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: If if that Iranian saber rabbit, man, stop that crap 860 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:52,200 Speaker 1: right now, please, it has to stop. It will be 861 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:55,239 Speaker 1: the most devastating thing our young people have ever seen 862 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,480 Speaker 1: in the modern era. And then the other has been 863 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,800 Speaker 1: you know, start working with your own power, start working 864 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:07,640 Speaker 1: with the markets. Right, the volatility is unsteady for people. 865 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 1: It affects people's livelihood, affect people's pensions, and affect people's portfolios. 866 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 1: Just be a little bit more focused on that, if 867 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 1: you would. I guarantee if you do that, people are 868 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:22,919 Speaker 1: going to get behind the on shoring, the reinvestment, the 869 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,799 Speaker 1: foreign policy, the fighting corruption, all that. So that's my 870 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 1: only thing. I give Trump a pass. I'll reevaluate and 871 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 1: wait a little bit. All right. So I know that 872 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 1: was a lot. I know sometimes I seem to run 873 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 1: on a little bit. But again, what I really wanted 874 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,640 Speaker 1: you to focus on and to recognize is that what 875 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,959 Speaker 1: I'm here to try and do is trying to summarize 876 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: all this stuff, to tie it together from a common 877 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 1: sense approach, and to be really positive because I do 878 00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:54,919 Speaker 1: believe we're on a positive trajectory. I believe we've kind 879 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:59,440 Speaker 1: of put that buttress upright. The border is secure, right, 880 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 1: I've identified some problems within the government and how to 881 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 1: clean that up. We're regenerating the military, We're we're we're 882 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:11,839 Speaker 1: hopefully you know, getting bad people out of the country. Uh, 883 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 1: people are reinvigorated to want to serve the nation at 884 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 1: all these different agencies, and and I think for overall, 885 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 1: like at the very minimum, I don't think any booby 886 00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:24,320 Speaker 1: believes we're going to go into a civil war to 887 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 1: the next catastrophic event. So take a deep breath, getting 888 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:36,839 Speaker 1: your nice lotus position right, and and go hug your 889 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:42,319 Speaker 1: family and hug your kids, and just recognize that we're 890 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,000 Speaker 1: in a pretty good state and and and things are 891 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 1: just going to continue to look up and be better. 892 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 1: And I believe overall we're in a good spot. So, uh, 893 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: that's my one hundred day sit rep for where we're at. 894 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:03,719 Speaker 1: I hope you enjoyed it. Uh, And and also just 895 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: have to be positive, right, don't be afraid to reach 896 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,239 Speaker 1: into that backpack or in that bag, your briefcase, or 897 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 1: uh in your your your central council or in your 898 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:19,160 Speaker 1: glove box, pull out that that flashbang of positivity and 899 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,360 Speaker 1: go ahead and throw it into the mix, will you? 900 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:26,840 Speaker 1: Who Yah
