It's now called Veterans Day. It's an 24 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 3: opportunity for every one of us to thank our veterans. 25 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 3: And so let me say to our listeners, if you 26 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 3: are a veteran, thank you.

All right, let's talk about 30 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 3: what is happening right now. I got to say the 31 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 3: fallout from election day continues. The Democrats have turned on 32 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 3: each other like scorpions in a bottle. Everyone is pointing fingers, 33 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 3: pointing barbed tails. They are striking at each other. It's 34 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: everyone's fault. That chaos is dramatic. And while Democrats are 35 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 3: lighting each other on fire, we also have news of 36 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 3: a serious plot, yet another plot to assassinate Donald J. 37 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 4: Trump. 38 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 3: In this instance, it was the nation of Iran who 39 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 3: hired hitmen with the charge of killing Trump. That indictment 40 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 3: has just been made public. We're going to give you 41 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 3: all the details about that as well. 42 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is truly incredible to watch this civil war 43 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: breakout within the Democratic Party.

How do we not connect 76 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: with the voters? What can we learn from this? Great 77 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: political minds take notes and so they can look back 78 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 2: at prior elections and remember what they screwed up and 79 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: maybe use that and implement in future elections. None of 80 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 2: that seems to be happening in the Democratic Party. It's 81 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 2: all it's your fault. No, it's your fault. No, it's 82 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 2: your fault. They're all turning on each other right now. Yeah, Ben, 83 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 2: you're being too analytical. When you lose an election. You're 84 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 2: pissed when you lose an election. Most people are pretty emotional, 85 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 2: they're angry, they lash out, and typically what happens within 86 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: a campaign as all the campaign staffers blame each other, 87 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 2: they all start leaking stories attacking each other, saying it 88 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: was that dumb soob's fault, that's why we lost. 89 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 3: You know, what you describe sounds like a very rational 90 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 3: process that very few campaigns actually do analyzing what went wrong. 91 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 3: In this instance, you've got an interesting dynamic because you 92 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 3: just you don't just have kmmalist team, you have Biden's 93 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 3: team as well. And so for example, Axios on Friday 94 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 3: reported quote Harris Biden camps blame each other for loss. 95 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,799 Speaker 3: And here's how it opens, finger pointing. Advisors to Harris 96 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 3: and President Biden agree on one thing, President Elect Trump's 97 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 3: victory is the other one's fault. So they're both that 98 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 3: they have the best person to blame it on with, 99 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 3: which is each other. So one Democrat who's anonymous but 100 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 3: quoted in the story, points the finger at Mike Donaldan 101 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 3: and Steve Verschetti, who were Biden's top political aids. 102 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 4: And here's the anonymous. 103 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 3: Quote, quote, Mike and Steve will have a lot to 104 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 3: answer for having him run for reelection at eighty years old. 105 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 3: Another person, this is someone on Harris's team. Here's their 106 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 3: anonymous quote, quote, the one hundred and seven day Harris 107 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 3: campaign was nearly flawless. I got to stop and like, 108 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 3: holy crap, really, like somebody would raws a salary. Actually 109 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 3: uttered that sentence. The one seven day Harris campaign was 110 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 3: nearly flawless, But the quote continues. The Biden campaign that 111 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 3: preceded it was the opposite. No, you could say a 112 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 3: lot of things about Kamalist campaign, but nearly flawless that 113 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 3: you definitely could not say. Here's another one from Harris's campaign, quote, 114 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 3: we did what we could. I think the odds against 115 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 3: us were insurmountable. Another Harris say. David Pluff is also 116 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 3: to Obama. Aid posted on x that the campaign had 117 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: quote dug out. 118 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 4: Of a deep hole. 119 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 3: In other words, that it was Biden's fault that he 120 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 3: dug that hole. Afterwards, Pluff deleted his account. Now Biden 121 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 3: pushes back to the folks that are attacking Donald and Raschetti, 122 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 3: Biden's top aids and Biden's team says quote, there are 123 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: a wide range of advisors Biden consulted about the campaign 124 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 3: who agreed on the merits of running like the party 125 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 3: did after the best midterm wins for a new president 126 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 3: over sixty years. No one has the president do anything. 127 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 3: It's going back and forth. All right, here's a Biden staffer. 128 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: Here's another anonymous quote. How did you spend one billion 129 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 3: dollars and not win? What the F and F is 130 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 3: not abbreviated in the actual quote. Here's someone from Harris's campaign. 131 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 3: Here's an anonymous quote. 132 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 4: Quote. 133 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 3: People are depressed and frustrated about the overconfident leadership of 134 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 3: the campaign. A Biden spokesperson publicly Andrew Bates. Here's what 135 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 3: he said, quote. Anyone criticizing the vice president's campaign is 136 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 3: at odds with President Biden. Here's someone else who says, quote, 137 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 3: the Harris team benched Biden and then they lost. So 138 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 3: now the people who represent Biden are saying, maybe you 139 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 3: shouldn't have been, and others are pointing to Here's a 140 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 3: former Biden administration official quote. The party was lied to 141 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 3: about our candidate, and the leadership who lied were the 142 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 3: same ones who never bothered to actually listen to voters 143 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: and understand what was appealing to them about Trump or 144 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 3: why the Biden economy wasn't working for them. 145 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 4: Even if it looked good on paper. 146 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 2: You look at all those quotes, and it's just like 147 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: you said, it's your fault. No, your fault, no, your fault, no, 148 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 2: your fault. I mean even Nancy Pelosi was talking about 149 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: this and said Biden's late exit and the lack of 150 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: an open primary is what costs in the White House. 151 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: But there's a problem with that because Nancy Pelosi in 152 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 2: September said this to the American people about the primary. 153 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 5: You had reportedly said you wanted a sort of an 154 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 5: open primary. 155 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: When if Joe Biden stepped down, did you change your mind. 156 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: Because you saw all the excitement around Kamala Harris. 157 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 6: No, I didn't change my mind. 158 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 7: We had an open primary and she won it. 159 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 8: Nobody else got in the race because she was politically 160 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 8: a student. 161 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 2: I mean, you gotta laugh at that, right. You're complaining 162 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 2: about it now. But then you said we had one 163 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 2: and no one else got in the race, Like, which 164 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 2: one is it? 165 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 3: Well, and Pelosi went on a greater length to the 166 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 3: New York Times. Here's what she just said. She said, quote, 167 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 3: had President Biden gotten out sooner, there may have been 168 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 3: other candidates in the race. Quote the anticipation was that 169 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: if the President were to step aside, that there would 170 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 3: have been an open primary. And as I say, Kamala 171 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 3: may have I think she would have done well in 172 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 3: that and been stronger going forward. But we don't know 173 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 3: that that didn't happen. We live with what happened. And 174 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: because the President endorsed Kamala Harris immediately, that really made 175 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 3: it almost impossible to have a primary at that time. 176 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 3: If it had been much earlier, it would have been different. 177 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 3: And so that, I mean, that's a fairly dramatic. Suddenly 178 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 3: Pelosi is acknowledging what any person with sentience acknowledged, which 179 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 3: is they did not have a democratic process. No votes 180 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 3: were cast, Kamala became the nominee with nobody voting for 181 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 3: her for president, and well then she ended up being 182 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 3: a general election nominee with not enough people voting for 183 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: her for president, and the entire Democrat Party circle the 184 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 3: wagons around her, and now they're they're they're just throwing 185 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 3: rocks and blaming everyone for what happened. 186 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 2: When when you see the lack of I think just 187 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 2: the best way I can describe it is self awareness. 188 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: I wonder what it's going to look like in Washington 189 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: come January. I mean, they've got to be just losing 190 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: their minds now right. 191 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 3: Well, and every day it's going to drive them crazier. Remember, 192 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 3: they've convinced themselves that Donald Trump is hitler. Trump is 193 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 3: going to be ubiquitous. He is going to be everywhere. 194 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 3: I expect the first one hundred days to be fast, 195 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 3: to be energetic. I'll tell you, I'm talking regularly the 196 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 3: Trump transition team. They're moving forward with cabinet appointments. They 197 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 3: want to move fast. They want to move fast with 198 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 3: executive orders. They want to move fast fast with regulation, 199 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 3: they want to move fast with legislation. They very much 200 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 3: feel and I think this is right, that they have 201 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 3: a mandate and let's go, go, go right now. That's that, 202 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 3: that's where the Trump team is coming from, and that's 203 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 3: going to drive Democrats out of their mind. I mean, 204 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 3: they're still in a state of denial. They're still like, no, no, no, 205 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 3: this can't be happening. This can't be happening. I don't 206 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 3: believe this is happening. And as I said that, they're 207 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 3: still emotionally blaming each other. Take a listen to this clip. 208 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,839 Speaker 3: This is from John Favreau on pod Save America, one 209 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 3: of the big big Obama bros. And and and and 210 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 3: look look what he's saying now. 211 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 7: Joe Biden's decision to run for president again was a 212 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 7: catastrophic mistake. 213 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 6: It just was. 214 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 7: And he and his inner circle, they refuse to believe 215 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 7: the polls. They refuse to believe he was unpopular. They 216 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 7: refuse to acknowledge until very late that anyone could be 217 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 7: upset about inflation. And they just kept telling us that 218 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 7: his presidency was historic and it was the greatest economy ever. 219 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 7: We just heard him again say that it's the greatest 220 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 7: economy ever. Clearly seventy eighty percent of voters don't believe that. 221 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 7: They don't believe that about their own personal financial situation, 222 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 7: but they just keep telling us that. And then after 223 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 7: the debate, the Biden people told us that the polls 224 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 7: were fine and Biden was still the strongest candidate. They 225 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 7: were privately telling reporters at the time that Kamala Harris 226 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 7: couldn't win. So they were shiving Kamala Harris two reporters 227 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 7: while they told everyone else, not a time for an 228 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 7: open process, and his vice president can't win, So he's 229 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 7: the strongest candidate then we find out when the Biden 230 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 7: campaign becomes the Harris campaign that the Biden campaign's own 231 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 7: internal polling at the time when they were telling us 232 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 7: he was the strongest candidate, showed that Donald Trump was 233 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 7: going to win four hundred electoral votes. That's what their 234 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 7: own internal polling said. 235 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 8: There were polls showing eighty percent of voters thought Joe 236 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 8: Biden was too old to get a second term before 237 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 8: the debate, and then we all watched the debate, and 238 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 8: then in the last few weeks Biden was campaigning and 239 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 8: he said we need to lock Trump up. He created 240 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 8: a controversy over whether Trump supporters were garbage. She said, 241 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 8: you know the weird thing about slapping Trump on the ASCIC. 242 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 8: His moments on the campaign trail worked flawless. Either you can't, 243 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 8: you cannot. I want to stay for the record, I 244 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 8: also think all the TV money I should. 245 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: Be should be rethought to more importantly. 246 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 9: The idea that Joe Biden was when you do better 247 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 9: in this race than couple Harris is on its face upside. 248 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: This is the number one liberal podcast America called Pod 249 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 2: Save America. And I'm still trying to figure out exactly 250 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 2: what their point is which was they were always screwed, 251 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: whether it was Joe Biden or Harris or anyone else. 252 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 3: Is that what they're know that Their point is they 253 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 3: were right. Remember it's Obama that pushed Biden out. It's Obama, 254 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 3: and it's Pelosi and it's Shumer. And so the Biden bros. 255 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 3: Are defending Obama and that means it cannot have been 256 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: a mistake to put Commonly in because they did that. 257 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 3: So that means the mistake was Biden in the first place. 258 00:13:58,120 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: In other words, they should have shived Biden a year. 259 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,599 Speaker 3: The mistake was waiting as long as they did to 260 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 3: ship Biden's That's that's what they're saying, and it's open 261 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 3: civil war. It's also striking, you know, you said the 262 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 3: number one liberal podcast in America, which does make you 263 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: kind of laugh. I wonder if both their listeners enjoy it. 264 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 3: But but but contrasts that with this very amusing discussion 265 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 3: on MSNBC where where leftists are are melting down that 266 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 3: they don't have a Joe Rogan, that they don't have 267 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 3: a Jordan Peterson. 268 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 2: Uh. 269 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 3: And in their view, the right wing is is this 270 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 3: this horrible wasteland and they want one, so give a 271 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 3: listen to this discussion. 272 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 5: Particularly the media ecosystem they've it's not a good one, 273 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 5: it's a negative one. It's a it's a radicalization funnel. 274 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 5: But what they have done in their online media ecosystem 275 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 5: is build a radicalization engine, literally the way militant groups 276 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 5: do around the world, that takes people from relatively low 277 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 5: level annoyances with the world. Wire eggs so expensive, Why 278 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 5: is my kid learning this new thing in American history 279 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 5: in school that I didn't learn, and then moves them 280 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 5: through YouTube videos, through podcasts, moves them from that annoyance 281 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 5: all the way, slowly, slowly, slowly to a full blown 282 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 5: fascist politics. It's an elaborate, multi billion dollar infrastructure, and 283 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 5: there is nothing like it on the pro democracy side. 284 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 5: We don't have an when a man is just lost 285 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 5: and lonely and not yet radicalized, we don't have the 286 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 5: equivalent of Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson to move that 287 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 5: man in a feminist direction. By the way, we should 288 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 5: educate men that it's actually really great to live with 289 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 5: a strong woman who makes money. 290 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: It's actually easier. Life is easier. I mean, it reminds 291 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: me of limball days. 292 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 2: Do you remember when they hated Limball, but then they 293 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 2: were angry they didn't have a Limball, so they tried 294 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 2: to make their own Limball and it never worked for them. 295 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: Now they're saying, we've lost control. 296 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: We are the mainstream media, and now we've lost the 297 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: country and a lot of them have completely tuned us out. 298 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: So now we want what the Republicans have, which was 299 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 2: to counter us, which is podcasts and the internet, and 300 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 2: we got to figure out how to control that now 301 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 2: because they're not watching us anymore. 302 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 3: That's where I heard, Well, I got to say that 303 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 3: that whole discussion, it really encapsulates what's wrong with the 304 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 3: left and what's wrong with the media all at once. 305 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 3: Number One, they discuss the world of the right podcasts 306 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 3: and various various outlets as as essentially like mad Max 307 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 3: and Thunderdome, this dystopian, insane radicalization engine the way militant 308 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 3: groups do like and apparently it's so horrible that they're like, 309 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 3: we really need something like that, so they have envy 310 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 3: to the Mad Max chaos. And then just like the 311 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 3: descriptions that that that MSNBC uses relatively low level annoyances 312 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 3: with the world. Why are eggs so expensive? This is 313 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 3: your standard liberal elite saying, you know who possibly cares 314 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 3: about their grocery bill? 315 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 4: Well, how about people who. 316 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 3: Go buy groceries every week and are struggling to pay 317 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 3: for the bill, that are not sure they have enough 318 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 3: to pay for groceries and pay for rent and pay 319 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 3: for gas. But to the leftist commentator, that's that's that's 320 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 3: beneath worrying. And then and then I love this one. 321 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 3: Why is my kid learning this new thing in American 322 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 3: history in school that I didn't learn this new thing 323 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 3: by which they mean, Why is my kid being told 324 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 3: America is a racist heel hole? George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, 325 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 3: We're evil. Everything about America is evil. The Constitution is evil. 326 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 4: Why are people annoyed at that? I don't understand. 327 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 3: You look at this and and I love that they 328 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:39,880 Speaker 3: call it an elaborate, multi billion dollar infrastructure. There's nothing 329 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 3: like it on the quote pro democracy side. Well, an 330 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 3: elaborate multi billion dollar infrastructure, what would you call CNN? 331 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 3: What would you call ABC, NBC, NBC, NBCMSNBCCBS, What would 332 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 3: you call The Washington Post, The New York Times, the 333 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 3: Houston Chronicle of the Dallas Morning News.

What the Department of 393 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 3: Justice has said publicly is that it thwarted an Iranian 394 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 3: plot to kill Donald Trump in the weeks leading up 395 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 3: to the election, and it filed a criminal complaint in 396 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 3: federal court in New York City that said an unnamed 397 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 3: official in Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had asked far 398 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 3: Had Shakri of Iran in September to quote focus on 399 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 3: surveilling and ultimately assassinating former President of the United States 400 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 3: Donald J. 401 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 4: Trump. 402 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 3: Now here's what Merrick Garland said in the press statement. Quote, 403 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 3: there are a few actors in the world that poses 404 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 3: gravest threat to the national security of the United States 405 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 3: as does Iran. 406 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 4: Quote. 407 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 3: The Justice Department has charged an asset of the Iranian 408 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: regime who was tasked by the regime to direct a 409 00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 3: network of criminal associates to further Iran's assassination plot against 410 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 3: its targets, including President elect Donald Trump. 411 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 4: Quote. 412 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 3: We have also charged and arrested two individuals who we 413 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 3: allege were recruited as a part of that network to 414 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,719 Speaker 3: silence and kill on us soil an American journalist who 415 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 3: has been a prominent critic of the regime. We will 416 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 3: not stand for the Iranian regime's attempts to endanger the 417 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,360 Speaker 3: American people in America's national security. Now, the Justice Department 418 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 3: says that Shakiri, who is at large, he has not 419 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,959 Speaker 3: been captured. He's believed to be living in Iran. Quote 420 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 3: immigrated to the United States as a child and was 421 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 3: deported in Or about two thousand and eight after serving 422 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 3: fourteen years in prison for a robbery conviction. Shakiri has 423 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 3: informed law enforcement that he was tasked on October seventh, 424 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four, with providing a plan to kill President 425 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 3: elect Donald J. 426 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 4: Trump. 427 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 3: The oj continued quote. According to Shakiri, during his meeting 428 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 3: with IRGUS official Honor about October seventh, twenty twenty four, 429 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 3: IRG official directed Shiri to provide a plan within its 430 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 3: seven days to kill Trump. If Shakiri was unable to 431 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 3: put forth a plan that within that timeframe, IRG official 432 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 3: continue the IRGC would pause its plan to kill Trump 433 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 3: until after the US presidential elections because the IRGC official 434 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 3: assessed that Trump would lose the election and afterwards it 435 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 3: would be easier to assassinate Trump. Now there's more, but 436 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 3: let's stop at that. So they hired a guy month 437 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 3: before the election to kill Trump, to come up with 438 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: a plan to kill Trump. And they also concluded, well, 439 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 3: if you don't succeed in that, we'll just wait until 440 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 3: after the election because we know Kamala is going to win. 441 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 3: And once Kamala wins, then we can go kill Trump 442 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 3: and it will be much easier. Well, you know that 443 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 3: plan didn't work. Shakiri also said he was tasked with 444 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 3: surveilling two Jewish American citizens residing in New York City 445 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 3: and offered five hundred thousand dollars by an IRGC official 446 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 3: for the murder of either victim. Federal prosecutors have also 447 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 3: charged and arrested Carlisle Rivera forty nine of Brooklyn, New York, 448 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 3: and Jonathan Loadholt thirty six, of Staten Island, New York, 449 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 3: in connection to their alleged involvement in a plot to 450 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 3: murder a US citizen of Iranian origin in New York. 451 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 3: That person, according to law enforcement sources, is Masi a Linijad. 452 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 3: And here's what doj says quote it Shakiri's instruction, load 453 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 3: Holt and Rivera have spent months surveiling a US citizen 454 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 3: of Iranian origin residing in the United States, and that 455 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 3: would be a Linijad. Alinijad is an outspoken critic of 456 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 3: the Iranian regime and has been the target of multiple 457 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 3: prior plots for kidnapping and or murder directed by the 458 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 3: government of Iran in exchange for Shakiri's promise one hundred 459 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: thousand dollars. Rivera and Loadholt repeatedly sought to locate Victim 460 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 3: one for murder. Prosecutors said that during their efforts to 461 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 3: locate and kill a Lidijad quote, Shakiri, load Hold, and 462 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 3: Rivera shared messages about their progress and photographs relating to 463 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 3: the scene. For example, in or about February twenty twenty four, 464 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 3: Rivera and load Hold message about an upcoming payment from Shakiri, 465 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 3: and then traveled to Fairfield University where Victim one was 466 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 3: scheduled to appear, and took photographs on campus. In one 467 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 3: voice note, Shakiri noted Rivera that Victim one spent most 468 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 3: of her time in particular locations of her home and 469 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 3: told Rivera that quote, you just got to have patience. 470 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 3: You got to wait and have patience to catch her 471 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 3: either going in the house or coming out, or following 472 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 3: her out somewhere and taking care of it. Don't think 473 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 3: about going in in is a suicide move. And all 474 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 3: three suspects are now facing charges of murder for hire, 475 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 3: conspiracy to commit murder for hire, and money laundering conspiracy, 476 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 3: and together those carry maximum penalties of ten to twenty 477 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:53,479 Speaker 3: years in prison. 478 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: You hear this plot and you sit there and you go, 479 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: how on earth has the Biden Hearris administration allowed Iran 480 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 2: to get to this point where they can just easily 481 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 2: go out into the United States of America, knock on 482 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 2: people's doors in America, get away with this, and not 483 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 2: hold them accountable for any of this while they're also 484 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 2: attacking Israel. And the question is number one, let's start 485 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 2: with the real political aspect of this. What is a 486 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 2: Trump administration response seem to be with this. I'm not 487 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 2: saying because they were targeting Trump. I'm saying the president 488 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,479 Speaker 2: of the United States of America, regardless of who that 489 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 2: person is, should never allow Ran to feel this comfortable 490 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: on American soil to do this, much less plan to 491 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 2: take out our president or a former president of the 492 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 2: United States of America. 493 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 3: Well, election day was a fantastic day for America. It 494 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 3: was fantastic day for everyone who wants to see jobs, 495 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 3: who wants to see border security, who wants to see 496 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 3: national security enhanced. But it was a terrible, terrible day 497 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 3: for the Ayatola and the Iranian blas. For four years, 498 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 3: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris with this, of every Democrat 499 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 3: in Congress, they have funneled over one hundred billion dollars 500 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 3: to Iran. It's not just that Biden Harris allowed Iran 501 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 3: to do this, they paid for it. One hundred billion 502 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 3: dollars is a lot of money. I'm here to tell 503 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 3: you that is going to end. In January of next year. 504 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 3: The Trump administration is going to cut off the money. 505 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 3: That's going to be the beginning. And I expect serious 506 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 3: consequences for Iran repeatedly trying to murder President Trump. I 507 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 3: don't know what those consequences will be, but I guarantee 508 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 3: you the Iyatolas are the Iatola and the Mullahs are deeply, 509 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 3: deeply worried and scared and the brazenness of this. And 510 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 3: look understand, the Justice Department knew about this. They deliberately 511 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 3: did not make it public until after election day. I 512 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 3: think they had a judgment. Well, gosh, if people know 513 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 3: that Iran is like actively trying to murder Trump, if 514 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 3: they know the details of this, that's going to end 515 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 3: up benefiting Trump. So let's just keep it quiet and 516 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 3: well Trump won. 517 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 2: So then it was cover your ables. Is that a 518 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 2: fair way of describing this. 519 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 4: You know, yes and no. 520 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 3: I mean, look, they had to file the complaint at 521 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 3: some point, so they're prosecuting these folks. So it was 522 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 3: inevitable that it would be filed, because you can't prosecute 523 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 3: them without filing the indictment and bringing charges. The timing, 524 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 3: the fact that they did not say anything public. Look, 525 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 3: DOJ has long standing rules that you're not supposed to 526 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 3: do anything to interfere in an election. I would say 527 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 3: that that foiling an assassination attempt by a foreign government 528 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 3: is not DOJ doing something to interfere with an election. 529 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 3: It is instead DOJ doing its job. And I think 530 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 3: the public has a right to know that. But and 531 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 3: so I think their decision to bury it and listen 532 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 3: under Joe Biden, this Biden Department of Justice, if there's 533 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 3: one thing they know how to do, it is leak. 534 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: Merrick Garland and his team they leak like crazy when 535 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 3: the story. When the story suits them politically, they give 536 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 3: it to all their buddies in the press. This thing 537 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 3: stayed absolutely silent until after election day. They also kept silent, 538 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 3: uh the the murder attempt of the US citizen by Iran, 539 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 3: because it also shows the incredible weakness of this administration, 540 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 3: just how much they've had boldened Iran that they feel 541 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 3: that they could carry out attempted murder plots on US soil. 542 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 3: It is a real demonstration of the basic principle that 543 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 3: that weakness invites hostility. In this case, Iran was only 544 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 3: emboldened by Joe Biden Kamala Harris's weakness. 545 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Fox News when they reported on this, it 546 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 2: was very interesting to see how they report it. And 547 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 2: I want to play this people, and I want you 548 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: to think about why you didn't know this before election day. 549 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 6: Listen, the Justice Department unsealing criminal charges in a thwarted 550 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 6: Iranian plot to kill President elect Donald Trump in the 551 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 6: lead up to this week's election. Welcome everybody. I'm dealing cabudo. 552 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 6: There's still a lot we don't know about this, but 553 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 6: David's on piecing together what we do, David. 554 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 9: Neil, we know it's just another threat coming from Iran 555 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 9: directed at President elect Donald Trump. The man that authorities 556 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 9: are looking for is a fifty one year old who 557 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 9: is allegedly working with the Iranian regime on a plan 558 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 9: to kill Trump. His name is Farhad Shakiri. Authorities believe 559 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 9: he's in Iran right now as I speak to you. 560 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 9: According to a criminal complaint on Seal today, Shakiri demanded 561 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 9: large sums of money for working on this plot to 562 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 9: kill Trump over the past few months. At stated in 563 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 9: a complaint, Shakiri indicated to an Iran Iranian government official 564 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 9: that this would cost a huge amount of money. In response, 565 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 9: the Iranian official said, we have already spent a lot 566 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 9: of money, so the money's not an issue. In a 567 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 9: statement from FBI Director Christopher Ray, he says the Islamic 568 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 9: Revolutionary Guard Corps, a designated foreign terrorist organization, has been 569 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 9: conspiring with criminals and hitmen to target and gun down 570 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 9: Americans on US soil, and that simply won't be tolerated. 571 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 9: Thanks to the heart work of the FBI, their deadly 572 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 9: schemes were disrupted. 573 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 2: By the way they said. And this is the part 574 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 2: I want to ask you. They said it was won't 575 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 2: be tolerated. I'm not sure I believe that based on 576 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 2: what we know now. It seems like we've been tolerating 577 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 2: Iran basically doing whatever the hell they want to do 578 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 2: for quite some time in the world. 579 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 3: Well, that's right, and look It's important to understand a 580 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 3: lot of the press when they talk about Donald Trump's 581 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 3: foreign policy, they mischaracterize it. There are a lot of 582 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 3: folks that characterized Trump as an isolationist. That's not remotely 583 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 3: the case. I mean, part of the reason Iran is 584 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 3: so angry is because remember Trump took out he killed 585 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 3: General Solomony. General Solomony was responsible for orchestrating the murder 586 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 3: of over six hundred American servicemen and women. He was 587 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 3: one of the leading terrorists in the world, and Iran's 588 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,239 Speaker 3: the leading state sponsor of terrorism, and Donald Trump took 589 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 3: him out. Donald Trump also enforced the oil sanctions, pulled 590 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 3: out of the Iran deal, brought the Iranian economy to 591 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 3: its knees, cut off their money, had the regime ready 592 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,959 Speaker 3: to topple. That is strength what Trump rightly did. And 593 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 3: by the way, on all of those steps, I was 594 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 3: urging Trump to proceed to vigorously defend us against Iran. 595 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 3: What Trump also did, though, is he did not get 596 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 3: us in foreign wars. It is amazing how the weakness 597 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 3: and appeasement of the left gets it exactly backwards. 598 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 4: They're eager to get us. 599 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 3: In mesh and foreign wars all over the world, but 600 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 3: they're not willing to be strong against people who actually 601 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 3: are trying to kill us. And in this instance, there 602 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 3: are going to be very, very real consequences for Iran. 603 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 3: The first will be economic. Their money is going to disappear, 604 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 3: but there's going to be consequences that are a lot 605 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 3: more real world than just dollars and cents. 606 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 2: If you've got a cell phone and your cell phone 607 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 2: is with Big Mobile, you've got to check out where 608 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 2: your money is going after you pay your bill every month. 609 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: You may not know, and I'm going to tell you 610 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: so now you will know. 611 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 2: The Big Mobile has been giving big donations for decades 612 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: to democratic Cause it candidates and organizations, radical organizations, including 613 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 2: organizations that provide for abortions on demand. That is exactly 614 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 2: why I want you to switch one of your bills 615 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: you have every month to a conservative Christian company called 616 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 2: Patriot Mobile. They were founded by a group of conservatives 617 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 2: that said we are going to give Christians and conservatives 618 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: an alternative, and they actually do something. 619 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: It's amazing. 620 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 2: They take about five percent of your bill every month 621 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 2: and they give it back to causes that are on 622 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 2: the front lines fighting for our First and our Second 623 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 2: Amendment rights that are fighting for the sancety of life 624 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: and standing with our military, our first responders, and our 625 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 2: wounded warrior heroes. That is at no extra cost to you. 626 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 2: That five percent they take out every month, so you 627 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 2: can now take a stand for conservative causes and put 628 00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 2: America first.

I just want to get your quick 648 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 2: thoughts on this because it's an interesting story and it's 649 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,280 Speaker 2: really just a sad story. I think it's a such 650 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 2: a sad story for the people that are hurting, who 651 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 2: were needing the help of their government. It has come 652 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 2: out now that a FEMA official ordered relief workers to 653 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 2: deliberately and purposely skip the houses of people that have 654 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 2: been affected by the hurricane that had Trump signs up 655 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 2: a whistle blower cane forward. So it's almost unbelievable to 656 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 2: think that somebody in the federal government would think that's okay. 657 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 2: I'm actually, by the way, not surprised, unfortunately, that there 658 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 2: are people in this Biden Harris government that would say, 659 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 2: screw those that are Trump supporters and don't give them 660 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 2: government aid even after a hurricane. 661 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: Yet this did happen. 662 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, this story, it's a story of an incredible abuse 663 00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 3: of power and just a brazen partisanship that sadly hypofies. 664 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 3: What has happened throughout the Biden Harris administration. I want 665 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 3: to give credit to the Daily Wire. The Daily Wire 666 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 3: broke this story. It also illustrates how so called mainstream media, 667 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 3: the corporate media, does not actually report on real news. 668 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 3: It took the Daily Wire to make this public. It's 669 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 3: also the Daily Wire that broke the stories in Loudon 670 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 3: County couple of years ago about the teenage girl who 671 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 3: was sexually assault in the bathroom by the boy wearing 672 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 3: a skirt, because again, the corporate media wouldn't report on 673 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 3: it well. In this instance, the Daily Wire reported that 674 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 3: that instructions were given to FEMA workers that said, and 675 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 3: they actually have screenshots of the instructions that say, quote 676 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 3: implement best practices. No one goes anywhere alone, avoid homes advertising, 677 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 3: trump practice de escalation and preventative measures. Communicate with and 678 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 3: follow the rules. Bring a towel with yourself in the field. 679 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 3: Frequent breaks, and drink water. Avoid how salt, diets and coffee. 680 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 3: Coconut water is a fast way to replenish your electrolytes quickly. 681 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 3: So this is written instruction for emergency emergency workers who 682 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 3: are dealing with the aftermath of a hurricane, a natural disaster, 683 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 3: and they are told in writing avoid homes advertising Trump. Now, now, look, 684 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 3: this only happens when you absolutely normalize the weaponization of 685 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 3: government against the enemies of your regime. This is this 686 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 3: particular individual was caught, and this person's been fired. Now, 687 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 3: of course she's been fired, she should have been fired. 688 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 3: But the broader question was what kind of culture was 689 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 3: there that made you think you should explicitly say hey, 690 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 3: and and I mean these are this. 691 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 2: Is providing put it in right, comfortable enough to put 692 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 2: it in writing. 693 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: Yep, ye wonder what else is in writing that that that. 694 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,359 Speaker 4: Is exactly right? 695 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 3: And you know, one of the employees who was one 696 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 3: of the whistleblowers said, quote, I know their short staff. 697 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 3: I thought we could go help and make a difference. 698 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 3: When we got there, we were told to discriminate against people. 699 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,760 Speaker 3: It's almost unbelievable to think that somebody in the federal 700 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 3: government would think that's okay. The employee said that it 701 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 3: felt wrong to discriminate against Trump supporters when they were 702 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 3: at their most vulnerable. 703 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 4: Quote. 704 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 3: I volunteered to help disaster victims, not discriminate against them. 705 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 3: It didn't matter if people were black, white, Hispanic for Trump, 706 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 3: for Harris, everyone deserves the same amount of help that 707 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 3: would be actually the government doing its job. But sadly, 708 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 3: too many in the Biden Harris administration, too many on 709 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 3: the left that they have convinced themselves Trump is hitler. 710 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 3: Anyone who supports him as garbage, and therefore you can 711 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 3: do anything possible to go after them. It's a really 712 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 3: sad example of just how weaponized this administration's gotten. 713 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 2: I hope this inspires others if there are other stories 714 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 2: out there, other emails and things in writing like this 715 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 2: that will be brought forward. I am glad by the 716 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 2: way that the woman's been fired, but the question that 717 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 2: I have to ask after that is, well, were there 718 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 2: any law is broken? 719 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: And I hope they look at that as well well. 720 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 3: And Ben and Ben, let me let me say, if 721 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 3: you go into the story, there are photos from the 722 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 3: systems that federal relief workers used to track the homes 723 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 3: they visited, and it showed that they followed the written guidance. 724 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 3: Several addresses were marked as quote not able to access property, 725 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 3: with listed explanations such as quote trump sign no entry, 726 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 3: per leadership, quote per leadership, no stop Trump flag quote 727 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 3: Trump sign end quote Trump sign. No contact per leadership. 728 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,879 Speaker 3: This was this was yes, yes, it was carried out 729 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 3: by supervision. That the name of the individual is someone. 730 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 3: Marnie Washington is the one who issued this order. Marnie 731 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 3: Washington has been fired. But this was an organization where 732 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 3: this order was par for the course.
