00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: Show Podcast. Great to have you with me. Hope you

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: had a fantastic weekend. I have to say the stuff

5
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: I saw from Cepack was encouraging. President Trump certainly gave

6
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: a Trumpian speech, and there's a lot that the Republican

7
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 1: Party has to work with going into the midterms. Biden

8
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: administrations already pretty disappointing and depressing, which is not a

9
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: surprise at all when you consider who the actual president

10
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: of the United States is. But we'll get into all

11
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: of that in a moment. You know, these days, the

12
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: cyber intrusions and the cyber theft that's going on is

13
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,279
Speaker 1: really at an all time high. You see this with

14
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: the ransomware attacks. I can't tell you how many days

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: now I get an email that's clearly some phishing scam,

16
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: and who knows, if they could get me to click

17
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: on it, maybe they can get into my company's computer

18
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: systems and do a lot of damage. And then there's

19
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: just also big tech spying on you. So you have

20
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: to take action to day to secure yourself against this.

21
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: That's why I want you to know about secure sek

Speaker 1: who send sensitive financial information and even working with sensitive

25
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: material or needing privacy has to get secure. They never

26
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: mind your information like big tech. They are security and

27

39
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: always troubling when you see that the government is trying

40
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: to break down some of the most intimate and close

41
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: bonds that we can possibly have. I mean, it should

42
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: be troubling to everybody when they see something like the

43
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: latest bulletin out from the FBI. Family members and peers

44
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: are often best positioned to witness signs of mobilization to

45
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: violence help prevent homegrown violent extremism. This was their tweet.

46
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: And then I saw the NCTC, where I'm sure they're

47
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: very bored these days. The NCTC report on all of this,

48
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: and it's been been shared out by the by the FBI,

49
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: but it was shared out just this morning. Now the

50
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: report is is from twenty nineteen. Why was this booklet created?

51
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: It was initially published in twenty fifteen, with an updated

52
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: version in twenty seventeen. Now they rereleased it in twenty nineteen.

53
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: The booklet describes each indicator in terms of four criteria, diagnosticity, character, category, at,

54
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: behavior observable by, and time sensitivity. They're trying to tell

55
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: you how to how to spy on people around you

56
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: to know if they're a violent extremist. Now, I want

57
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: to know, of the perhaps hundreds, maybe few thousand people

58
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: who read about this, how many of them are actually

59
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: going to do anything to stop violent extremism or be

60
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: in a position to do so. No, but the BI

61
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: wants you to be on the lookout. They do this now,

62
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: they remind you of it so that you can start

63
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: to think, well, what is the violent extremism of the moment.

64
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: Why are we being told this right now? What is

65
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 1: the focus of our efforts in the intelligence community in

66
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:23,239
Speaker 1: other places? Oh, that's right, it is violent white nationalists,

67
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 1: Trump supporters and insurrectionists. So when they have this steady

68
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: drip drip drip of family members and peers, our best

69
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: position to witness signs of mobilization. And you have that

70
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: same government apparatus trying to tell everybody that the real problem,

71
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: the real concern that we should all have, is the

72
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: next insurrection. I think you can see why this is

73
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: troubling stuff. I think you can see why the otherization,

74
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: the dehumanization of the right by the Democrat Party is

75
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: something that should trouble all of us. It certainly troubles me.

76
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: And increasingly you don't even see dialogue between the two

77
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,239
Speaker 1: sides going on. It's just all, if you're a Trump supporter,

78
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,359
Speaker 1: you're evil. Now I look around and I see what

79
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: the Biden administration has done, what it has accomplished, what

80
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 1: it has not accomplished, And I say, what the heck

81
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 1: is going on here? How can anyone think that this

82
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 1: guy is not a total loser and a buffoon. But remember,

83
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: they're not marking the progress of Biden against the reality

84
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: of what was happening in this country before Biden came

85
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: to office. They're not doing that. They're marking it against

86
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: against Donald Trump being the threat to our republic and

87
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 1: the insurrection causing usurper of twenty sixteen, the insurrection of

88
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. They have convinced themselves, they've convinced each other

89
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: that he is a great evil, that there could be

90
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: no greater evil in the Oval office than Donald Trump.

91
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: Now that's an absurdity, it is crazy, but they believe it.

92
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: And this is the part that I think is so

93
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: hard for many. It was this is the aspect of

94
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: this that I view as so troubling for the future. Right,

95
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: they actually think this stuff is true. That's the part

96
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: of it that I've seen now more clearly than ever before.

97
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: And you could say, well, Buck, what do you mean.

98
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: I used to think that they cite themselves up, that

99
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: the left at some level knew that the stuff that

100
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: they were saying, what Russia collusion was a lie, you know,

101
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: but it was the same kind of lie that a

102
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 1: really aggressive defense attorney will will use or prosecutor to

103
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: undermine a witness, you know, to insinuate something. They know

104
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: it's not true, but it'll hurt their credibility, and that's

105
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: their purpose. They don't care that it's not true. No,

106
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: I think we're dealing now with a mainstream Democrat party

107
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: that actually believes the most radical rhetoric that it puts forward,

108
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: that believes this talk about how at any moment in time,

109
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: there could be another insurrection, which is you have Nancy

110
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats going along in

111
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: Congress with this select committee. I mean, it's absurd, It's

112
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: absolutely absurd, and they're just gonna lean into all of

113
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: it because Trump. They here's an example of it. Politico

114
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: headline from yesterday, Trump on January sixth insurrection. These were

115
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: great people. And let's see what else we get. A

116
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: new new details suggest senior Trump officials work to appease

117
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: leaders of the January sixth insurrection. That's the Milwaukee Independent.

118
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: I mean, there's stuff about this now every day, you know.

119
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: New York Magazine had a piece the chilling message of

120
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: Trump's embrace of Ashley Babbitt's martyrdom. Trump's insurrection is gaining

121
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: steam six months after the capital attack that was just

122
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: a few days ago. Donald Trump's January six You see

123
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: what they're doing. I want to tell you what's happening,

124
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: so that we can all be clear what the narrative

125
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: is and what they're preparing. Trump's effort to run for

126
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: office again, should he try, is inherently another active insurrection,

127
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: don't you see. That's what they'll call it. That's why

128
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: they're labeling everybody in insurrections. That's why they're using this term,

129
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: because what they'll say is that his entire campaign and

130
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: everything about it and all that he's gearing up to do,

131
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: and this is even going to be said during the midterms.

132
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: I know that it's a few years away before Trump

133
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: could even run, but they're preparing the ground now so

134
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 1: that they'll tell you if Trump doesn't win, that the

135
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: whole point is that then he'll call for a real

136
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: storming of the government in an overthrow. Now, whether we

137
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: ever even get to that point or not doesn't matter

138
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: to the left. If in a year, if in six months,

139
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: they abandon this narrative in its entire It does not

140
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 1: matter to them, because it's useful right now. It convinces

141
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: the Democrat base that the people who disagree with them

142
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: about our open border and about our crazy government spending,

143
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: and about giving people more money to stay home than

144
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: to work, and about LGBTQ plus indoctrination in you know,

145
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: grammar school and too little kids, and to the transagenda

146
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: and critical race theory and all these things. Anyone who

147
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: opposes all of that is part of another insurrection attempt.

148
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: Donald Trump running is the insurrection attempt. As far as

149
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: they're concerned. It's illegitimate. You see, it's done under threat

150
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 1: of force. And one of the fascinating parts about all

151
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: this is that the last election was done under the

152
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 1: quite explicit threat of force by Democrats. What was all

153
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: the boarding up of stores and people preparing for riots

154
00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 1: all over America on Election Day twenty twenty didn't actually happen.

155
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: The riots didn't happen. What was what was that all about? Well,

156
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: because it was quite clear that Biden voters plan to loot, riot, pillage,

157
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: and destroy if they didn't get their way. Now, that

158
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: also has an impact on the psyche of people who

159
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: are undecided independence. You want to talk about affecting turnout.

160
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: What do you do if you're somebody who lives in

161
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: a suburb of Philadelphia and you don't want to see

162
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: Philadelphia have whole city blocks burned down because Donald Trump

163
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: won reelection, maybe you don't. Maybe you just don't show

164
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 1: up and vote for Trump. You know, if you live

165
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee and you happen to be a Trump supporter,

166
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: maybe you don't cast your vote for him. And you know,

167
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: in the critical state of Wisconsin in twenty twenty, because

168
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 1: you don't want to see whole neighborhoods burned down. It's

169
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: not worth it to you to get Trump elected. Right,

170
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: You can see how this mindset could have very much

171
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: affected the outcome, and it was. It was the quite

172
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: clear threat of force behind it. That's what that is.

173
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 1: Huff Post five days ago. Six months later, Republicans have

174
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 1: a new January six message, insurrection. What insurrection? How can

175
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: you have an insurrection which is an attempt to overthrow

176
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: the government. How can you have an insurrection where there

177
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: is no actual, faint possibility of a use of force

178
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: to over overcome government force and seize power? Anywhere. They couldn't.

179
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: They couldn't have even done in the Capitol they'd wanted to.

180
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: But this is what they do. This what they say.

181
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: And this is also why I was so angry about

182
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: what happened that day, because I knew that it was

183
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: handing a huge propaganda victory to the DNA. Dide it

184
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: handed a huge propaganda victory to the Democrats. This is

185
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 1: why we keep hearing about it. But understand what I'm

186
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: telling you. Now, Trump running, they will claim and they

187
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: will act like is another act. Trump running for president

188
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: will be treated as an insurrection in progress. Every step,

189
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: every stage, every dollar given to it is illegitimate and

190
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: meant to overthrow the government. By using the system and

191
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 1: lawfully exercising his rights as an American citizen to run

192
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: for office, Trump will be threatening the system. That's what

193
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: they'll say. So at least you won't be surprised when

194
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: it happens. Get get ready for it, because that is

195
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: what's coming. You know. There's a drink Cuba libre, which

196
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 1: is what is it? Rum? Sugar mint? Wait? Am I

197
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: getting it wrong? Actually? What is in a Cuba Libre?

198
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: It has yeah? Rum? Oh no, it's rum and coke. Really,

199
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: that's it. I guess I was confusing with him with

200
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: kind of a Mohito like thing. Yeah, Cuba Libre just

201
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: has rum and coke. That's not really a very exciting drink,

202
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: but it'll get it done. I mean, you know, if

203
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: you're a sorority girl and you want to get you

204
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: want to get lit, and you have a few of those,

205
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: and you'll be good to go throw a little lime

206
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 1: in there and make it look fancy. Anyway, Cuba Libree,

207
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: Cuban liberty, Cuban freedom. It's not a real thing. Unfortunately,

208
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: the drink is in that sense poorly, poorly named. The

209
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: origins are allegedly the back to the year nineteen hundred.

210
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: Actually US Army captain stationed in Havana during the Spanish

211
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 1: American War. He added Coca cola and a little lime

212
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 1: juice to a Cubacardi rum, tossed his Cuban comrades are toasted,

213
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,839
Speaker 1: rather his Cuban comrades, and said, poor Cuba Libre to

214
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: a free Cuba. So that's where the drink actually comes from.

215
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: But will there actually be a free Cube? But well,

216
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: it's an interesting question today because of what we are

217
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: seeing on the streets of Havana and many many places,

218
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: many areas, town cities across Cuba. And these are the

219
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: biggest protests that anyone has really seen in living memory.

220
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 1: I mean, there were some protests back in the nineties

221
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: that also got a fair amount of attention. I mean,

222
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 1: there was back in nineteen ninety four, when Fidel Castro

223
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: was still alive. Cubans took the streets to protest. Then

224
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: it was called the Malaconazzo, But that only really happened

225
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: in the capital city in Havana, and Castro used it

226
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: as an opportunity to just take people and create an exodus.

227
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: He opened Cuba's maritime borders and sent all these folks

228
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: out on boats and rafts, essentially as expelled the dissidents

229
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: in the Balcero crisis. So that was how it was handled.

230
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: Then how will this be handled? Now? That's something that

231
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: nobody really has a particularly good answer to. Freedom. Thousands

232
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: of Cubans take to the streets to demand the end

233
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: of dictatorship. The end of dictatorship. Now you'll see something

234
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: very interesting here. Democrats who claimed that they have particular

235
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: interest in fighting back, I'm sorry, no particular interest in

236
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: backing communism, have no fondness for it, and it's a

237
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: smear to say the Democrat party has some allegiance to

238
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: ideological or emotional allegiance to communism. In any way, you'll

239
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: see plenty of Democrats who are just like, oh, it's

240
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: just because of COVID, and and by transitive property of

241
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: Democrat craziness, what's going on in Cuba will even be

242
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: turned by some into oh, US foreign policy prevents them

243
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: from having the healthcare system that is necessary to deal

244
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 1: with COVID, So it's really our fault that the COVID

245
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: crisis is hitting Cuba, and therefore it's not really the

246
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: regime that's an issue, it's America. You'll see dance like

247
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: that happening from Democrats who pretend that they don't love Cuba,

248
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: but they do. And when I say I don't mean

249
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: the people or the island, because it's beautiful island, actually

250
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: great people, I'm in the regime. They have real feeling

251
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: of fondness for the Cuban regime and they know that

252
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: it hasn't worked and looking and say, if communism can't

253
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: work on an island with total cultural and social unity

254
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: in terms of language and history and you know, there's

255
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: not a lot of diversity in Cuba in the lass

256
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 1: sixty years, and it's been the same for a long time.

257
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: If it can't work there work, where is it going

258
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: to work. If it can't work in the shadow of

259
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: the safety, relatively speaking, created by the world's greatest superpower

260
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: next door. I know people say, oh, but what about

261
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 1: the embargo. Well, we have not blockaded them, we have

262
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: not prevented them from being able to trade with the

263
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: rest of the world. That's on them. And of course

264
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: this some of this was loosened a little bit by

265
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: the Obama administration. But people have finally had enough, and

266
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: this would be a perfect opportunity, a perfect opportunity for

267
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: the Biden administration to come forward and say that this

268
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: is this is what we want to see. We want

269
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: the Cuban people to demand their freedom. We back them,

270
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: we support them, we stand beside them, at least in spirit.

271
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: And you know, we love that there are American flags

272
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:20,479
Speaker 1: that these Cuban dissonance. These protesters are flying down with

273
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: communism and freedom. They're chanting, They're chanting Patria e Vita,

274
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: homeland and life. That's their battle cry. Because there's the

275
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: revolutionary slogan homeland or death, and they're turning them around

276
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,679
Speaker 1: that they want better lives. People actually want to live

277
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: in a place where they have access to, you know,

278
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: good food, clean water, freedom to speak their minds, freedom

279
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: to enjoy their lives, private property. This is why society exists.

280
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: When society cannot provide those things, society ceases to be

281
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: a worthwhile endeavor for a lot of folks. They want

282
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 1: a different society. And the way that these places, these

283
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: situations are held together is by brute force, which is

284
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: the case in Cuba. It's a country that has murdered, tortured, enslaved,

285
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: and miserated people for sixty plus years now, and the

286
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: Democrats have nothing but victimology and whining about America to offer.

287
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: For the most part, because Democrats are socialists by emotion,

288
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: they would prefer sure, right now, America's capitalists and they

289
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: like to benefit from it. But if they could snap

290
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: their fingers and make America a socialist country tomorrow, a

291
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: lot of Democrats would do it. I would offer a

292
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 1: majority of the Democrat Party if they could do that,

293
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: would That's different from saying they're pushing for that every

294
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: day in Congress because they know that that actually hurts

295
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 1: their power because a majority of the American people are

296
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 1: not with them. But Democrats could make America socialist country,

297
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: they would, and they see a lot of virtue in communism.

298
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 1: The path to hell is paved with good intentions, and

299
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: the path the misery is paid for communism, and they

300
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: simply don't care about the results. They care about the

301
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: what was tried. And this is why you have propagandistic

302
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: morons like Michael Moore who make movies that are supposed

303
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 1: to be documentary. It's just it's just a video editorial,

304
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,640
Speaker 1: like the same crap you could read on the HuffPo

305
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: or Salon dot com or in these other places full

306
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: of idiot limbs. I mean increasing what you're seeing because

307
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 1: of COVID. Actually, I believe is that the left really

308
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: is this is a anxiety disorder that to be a

309
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: woke leftist in America today means that you actually suffer

310
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 1: from clinical issues. You are not able to see the

311
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: world as it is, and you live with exaggerated fears

312
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: and concerns and are not able to balance what is

313
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: important from what is not. I'm being sure, I'm not

314
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: trying to be funny or provocative. I'm being serious. I

315
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: actually think that to be a leftist in America today

316
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 1: is to be suffering from an anxiety. An anxiety and

317
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: depress I should disorder of some kind, because every every

318
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: true leftist that I know also, I mean the ones

319
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: that are really true believers are are pretty miserable. I

320
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: could maybe think of a few exceptions, but very very few.

321
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: They tend to be very miserable people. And I think

322
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: that's also why they focus on if you're an American

323
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: and you're always obsessed with socialism, if you're an American

324
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: and you praise the Cuban regime and think that they've

325
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: got something figured out, think of all the amazing things

326
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,719
Speaker 1: in this country that you have to overlook, Think of

327
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 1: all the absurdity you have to embrace in order to

328
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: come to that conclusion. And I think it becomes manifest

329
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: very quickly that yeah, yeah, it's an anxiety disorder. And

330
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: I'm saying anxiety. I don't know what you you know,

331
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 1: maybe it's some kind of a disassociated I'm not a

332
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: psychiatrist or a psychologist, but it's these people have mental

333
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: health issues, which is also why they think they need

334
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: to share their pronouns all the time, and they have

335
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: to do all these things. I mean, what normal person

336
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: thinks that they have to announce their pronouns. These are

337
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,959
Speaker 1: the same people that think that if they're even if

338
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: they've had the disease and they're vaccinated against COVID, they should,

339
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: you know, double mask outside. I was outside today. Lots,

340
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 1: not a majority, but plenty of people walking around outdoors

341
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: masks on. In New York City, I'd say ten percent

342
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: maybe maybe you know which, which is way better than

343
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: it was, but there's still a lot of people who

344
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 1: are frankly absurd. Anyway, back to Cuba and what's and

345
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 1: what's going on in Cuba, people are just sick of it,

346
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: They're tired of it, and they finally take into the streets.

347
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 1: The government is probably going to get very ugly with

348
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 1: all of this. The government is probably going to do

349
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: some really nasty things. And in Havana, according to Miami Herald,

350
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: here about three hundred people close to the government gathered

351
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: near the Capitol building, shouting slogans in favor of the

352
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: late president Fidel Castro and Diaz Knell. Some people from

353
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: the assaulted an Associated Press cameraman, disabling a Camerawell, an

354
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 1: AP photographer was injured by the police. On Twitter, Cuban

355
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 1: four Minister Bruno Rodriguez suggested the protests were orchestrated by

356
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: the US President Diaz Canal b is in San Antonio

357
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 1: with del Los Banos, with the revolutionary people that are

358
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 1: mobilized against the imperialist campaign and its salaried agents. We

359
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: appreciate the international solidarity and Hubans living abroad. This is

360
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: this is absurd, right, this is absurd. This is what

361
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: we see happening in a place where that the fallback

362
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: is always it's America's fault, It's America's problem. We're the

363
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: ones making this stuff happen. We're the ones that are

364
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 1: that are causing this issue. And the Cuban regime plays

365
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,679
Speaker 1: into that too. They will say things that are just

366
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: frankly nuts, and it does not matter to them that

367
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: it's so manifestly absurd and crazy. It doesn't matter to

368
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: them at all. It's just sort of what it sounds

369
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,640
Speaker 1: like on the streets. I'vner right now. By the way,

370
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: here's Marco Rubio talking about what he sees going on

371
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 1: well in the street, protesting, and they've been channing. We

372
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 1: are not afraid, and why are they in the street.

373
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: They're in the street because they seek freedom. What they

374
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: seek to do basically is to live in a normal country.

375
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: What they're tired of is having to be the people

376
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: that can only achieve their dreams by going somewhere else.

377
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: Why can Cubans achieve all kinds of things all over

378
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,479
Speaker 1: the world, including here in the United States, but they

379
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: can't do it inside of Cuba. They're tired of living

380
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 1: under tyranny, and they're tired of they're living under incompetent leaders.

381
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 1: That's what the Cuban regime is because socialism and Marxism

382
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: doesn't work. It's a failure. It's a failure everywhere it's

383
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: been tried, and it's having a catastrophic impact on the

384
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: people of Cuba. Nothing to do with the embargo, nothing

385
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: to do with everything anything else. It has to do

386
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: with the fact that these tyrants are also incompetent and

387
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: socialism marks some communists is it doesn't work. It doesn't

388
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: work anywhere. Now we've already had reports that the Cuban

389
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: military and the police are in the street, that they're

390
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 1: out there to hurt these people and to crack down

391
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: on them. Let me tell you something a couple of things.

392
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: First of all, don't do it. Do not go after

393
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: your own family members, your cousins, your uncles, your aunts,

394
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: the people you grew up with, your brothers, your sisters,

395
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: your own blood. All these people want us to live

396
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 1: in a normal country where their own dreams and their

397
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 1: own hopes can become reality. Where they were born, where

398
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 1: they are from. That's what they want. And the second

399
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: thing that people need to know is we're not living

400
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: in the sixties and seventies anymore. Now we know everyone's

401
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: first name and their last name, there will be nowhere

402
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: to hide. If you're out there hurting these people and

403
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: participating in this crackdown, We're gonna know who you are

404
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 1: when you try to come into the US three years

405
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,479
Speaker 1: from now on vacation. We're gonna know who you are

406
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: when you decide Cuba's no longer for you and you

407
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: try to come into the US and gain asylum here,

408
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: and you're gonna one day have to face justice in

409
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: a free Cuba. And I hope the US media and

410
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: the global media are paying attention and give this coverage,

411
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: give coverage to the fact that there are people in

412
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 1: the street in Cuba because they do not want to

413
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: live into Marxism and communism and socialism anymore. They want freedom.

414
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: They want freedom political freedom, but they want economic freedom.

415
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: They want the ability to live their lives as they choose.

416
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: Cover it because it's happening, Do not ignore it. We're

417
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: certainly covering it here. Cuba is the issue that Marco Rubio,

418
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: Senator Rubio, is strongest on. I will say that he's

419
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: always been strong on it because it's near and dear

420
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 1: to him for obvious reasons, and what he's saying is

421
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 1: all true there. You know, I just went and visited

422
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 1: a friend of mine, a dear friend of mine when

423
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: I was in Miami the last time, who was a

424
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 1: mentor to me for years when I was in the government,

425
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 1: and I have some great times and great stories with him.

426
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 1: He was at the Bay of Pigs, he was captured,

427
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: he was ransomed back by the United States government, and

428
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: he tells this great story where he says he realized

429
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: he wanted to go right into the United States military.

430
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: And he was with some of his friends and he

431
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: was at a restaurant and he asked a waitress who

432
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: was walking by. He said he saw a very he said.

433
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: A very lovely, young, young female waitress was walking by,

434
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 1: and he said, Hey, who do you think, who do

435
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: you think has the most handsome uniform? That's what he said.

436
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: And she said, this is the story he tells me.

437
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 1: And she said, Oh, I like the Marines, and I

438
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 1: think they look so handsome in their in their dress uniforms.

439
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 1: So he promptly joined the Marines. He served in Vietnam.

440
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: The sky has stories like you would not believe, and

441
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 1: among them being at at at the Bay of Pigs

442
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: and being there on the beach when he just views

443
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 1: it as a massive betrayal by Kennedy and by the

444
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 1: American political class. I saw him and I talked him

445
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: a little bit about about Cuban when he thinks is

446
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: going on there most recently. Unfortunately, he's he's starting to

447
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: get a little foggy. He was actually very hard. It

448
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: was hard in that sense to go see him because

449
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: there's somebody that I've known for so long and it's

450
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: such a dear friend. And he's, um, you know, he's

451
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 1: in his eighties now and uh, and he's he's just

452
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 1: he's just a little foggy. He's he was good, but

453
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: it's tough. Tough to see somebody that you've viewed as

454
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: a as a mentor and really a hero start to

455
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: you know, just get old to the point where they

456
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: need a little help, they need a little more support. Um.

457
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: But anyway, he was at the Bay of Pigs, and

458
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: I've spoken to him many times over the years just

459
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: about the evils of the communist regime. And I'll tell

460
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: you this, people in this country who aren't Cuban just

461
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: have no idea. They don't they don't understand how bad

462
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: it really got. They don't understand how vicious and evil

463
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: and brutal. Castro and Givara and these people, Um, they don't.

464
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: They don't understand how terrible they were. Honestly, that's the

465
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 1: part of it that gets left out because in America

466
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: are you know, academics are so often Marxists, and they

467
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: find a way to be sympathetic to it. I'm not

468
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 1: sitting here saying that we should, you know, land the

469
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 1: eighty second Airborne, or we should send a marine expeditionary

470
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: force or anything like that into Cuba. This is for

471
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: the Cuban people to sort out. But I do think

472
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: we should at least stand in real solidarity with them

473
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: and in no uncertain terms, let them be no, Let

474
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 1: let them know that the second they get rid of

475
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: these thuggish kleptocrats running the Cuban government, the American people, man,

476
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: we want to turn Cuba. We want to be best

477
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: friends with the Cuban people. We want to turn Cuba

478
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: into a place that people want to live and work

479
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: and play and be and go and everything else. And

480
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be hard. It's got it. There's a lot,

481
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: there's a lot going for it. The reason it's been

482
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: immiserrated is because of the people in charge. They get

483
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: rid of those people, be a whole new start for

484
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: that island. And I mean, you see what's happened in

485
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: other countries that have embraced rule of law and free

486
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: market capitalism. You see what's happened and say South Korea

487
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: over the last fifty years, it seems happened in Taiwan.

488
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: You see when places choose rule of law and markets

489
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: and incentives over revolutionary dictatorship or you know, the government

490
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 1: of quote, you know the workers, it's never actually the

491
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: workers who run these governments. Of course, we've run the experiment,

492
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 1: We've seen what the results are. I really do hope

493
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: for the people of Cuba, and as I was just

494
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: telling you some of some of whom some of the

495
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,959
Speaker 1: Cubans who fled Cuba become my very among my very

496
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: dearest friends. But I hope the Cubans still in Cuba

497
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: are able to get rid of this oppressive, tyrannical lunacy

498
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: that has been forced upon them. I think the Biden

499
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: administration is going to do the right thing here, say

500
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: the right thing no now, because there are far too

501
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 1: many Democrats, unfortunately, who are sympathetic to communism and Marxism,

502
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 1: if not openly Marxists themselves, and they don't like to

503
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:08,959
Speaker 1: see another another authoritarian, collectivist regime taken off the chessboard.

504
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: They want as many as they can have. But what

505
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: I wanted to get your reaction to is the crowd

506
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: cheering when this gentleman talks about how the government was

507
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 1: not able to achieve a ninety percent vaccine goal. The

508
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 1: crowd cheers. As a public health official, what's your reaction

509
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: when you hear that. It's it's horrifying. I mean they're

510
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: cheering about someone saying that it's a good thing for

511
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: people not to try and save their lives. I mean,

512
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: if you just unpack that for a second. Jake. It's

513
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: almost frightening to say, hey, guess what, we don't want

514
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: you to do something to save your life. Yay, everybody

515
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: starts screaming and clapping. I just don't get that. I mean,

516
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: and I don't think that anybody who's thinking clearly can

517
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 1: get that. What is that all about? I don't understand

518
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 1: that Jake Fauci is a little fascist. I think you

519
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: understand that the sky is a nightmare. He's the absolute worst.

520
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: And I've been saying it now for over a year. Yeah.

521
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 1: Do I think that it's not great optics when people

522
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: are cheering for the not hitting the vaccination goal. Yeah,

523
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: because Democrats are going to turn around and act like

524
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: that means people don't want to be protected from COVID.

525
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: What they leave out of this is no, they just

526
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 1: don't want the government to force everyone five year olds,

527
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: eight year olds, thee hundred million people who have already

528
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: had COVID like me. There's one hundred million plus of

529
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: us out there. A lot of them have already gotten

530
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: vaccinated with no apparent good reason for that. And now

531
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: they're talking about top off shots. You know, get another

532
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: shot here, another shot? There. We don't want the government

533
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: ruining everyone's lives by pretending they're saving lives when they're not.

534
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: That's really what this comes down to. But Fauci refuses

535
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: to see what's going on here. He still just believes

536
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 1: that there are people who are just dumb dumbs. They

537
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: don't believe in science, and there's no reason for this,

538
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: and you know they just watch too much Fox News

539
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: Play eleven. It's an inexplicable pushing back on the part

540
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: of some people about getting vaccinated. I hurt it when

541
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: you were talking just a while ago to the congressman

542
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: about the idea of people saying that government is knocking

543
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: on your door trying to force you to vaccinate. That

544
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: is not the case at all. We're getting trusted messages

545
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: to try and get people to understand and appreciate why

546
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 1: it's important for their own safety, for that of their families,

547
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: and for the community in general. There's no reason not

548
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: to get vaccinated. Did you make a very good point.

549
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 1: There are places in the world, many places where the

550
00:32:56,280 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: vaccination availability is practically mill Those people would do anything

551
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: to get a vaccine. We in the United States have

552
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: enough vaccinations to give to everybody in the country and

553
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: their life saving. I mean, we've got to put aside

554
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: this ideological difference or a difference is thinking that somebody's

555
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: forcing you to do something. The public health officials like

556
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: myself and my colleagues are asking you to do something

557
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 1: that will ultimately save your life. See that's just not true.

558
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: For ninety nine percent of people of any age, the

559
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: vaccine is not going to save their life because they're

560
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: actually not at risk of dying from the virus in

561
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: the first place. But see, they just they exaggerate, they

562
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: don't deal with the nuances they give no Fauci gives

563
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: no difference. I could care less about your freedom. You

564
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 1: can take your freedom, your individual choice. You're running of

565
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: your own life, and you can stuff it as far

566
00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: as he's concerned. And this is not to stop. I

567
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 1: told you they're not going to stop. The coffee shop

568
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: on my corner still requires masks, even though New York

569
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: City says masks for the vaccinated are not necessary indoors.

570
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: And I'm not bringing that up like, oh woe is

571
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 1: me my coffee shop. I'm just saying it's still out there.

572
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: I get on a plane, I have to wear a mask.

573
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 1: I get out there I get told, you know, you've

574
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: got to be vaccinated, and they're fighting back against us.

575
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,840
Speaker 1: They want a regime where people can go door to

576
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 1: door and check on you. They want you to have

577
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,919
Speaker 1: a little bar code that they can scan to see

578
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 1: if you've actually gotten vaccinated. And if you question it,

579
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: you have to deal with the wrath of sake Bomb

580
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,439
Speaker 1: and others who are saying that you're questioning of any

581
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: of this is killing people. Play five. Well, let me

582
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: first say that the failure to provide accurate public health information,

583
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 1: including the efficacy of vaccines and the accessibility of them,

584
00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: to people across the country, including South Carolina, is literally people.

585
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 1: So maybe they should consider that. But I would say

586
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: that what this is and what is it is not

587
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: This is not federal employees going door to door. This

588
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: is grassroots volunteers. This is members of the clergy. These

589
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: are volunteers who believe that people across the country, especially

590
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: in low vaccinated areas, should have accurate information, should have

591
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 1: information about where they can get vaccinated, where they can

592
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: save their own lives and their neighbors lives and their

593
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,240
Speaker 1: family members lives. That's exactly what this is. It's something

594
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 1: that's been going on since April, and it's something where

595
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,800
Speaker 1: we've seen an impact in states where there are lower

596
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: vaccination rates. So it is something we will continue to

597
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: work with local groups to do. And it's a disservice

598
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 1: to the country and to the people who may lose

599
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 1: their lives, who may lose family members, to provide inaccurate

600
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: disinformation at a moment where we're still fighting a pandemic.

601
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,320
Speaker 1: I mean, is it's never going to be enough, you guys,

602
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: get that right, It's never going to be enough in

603
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 1: terms of vaccination. One thinks these vaccines last forever. They're

604
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: talking about the variants so and they're never gonna get

605
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 1: to one hundred percent of vaccination. And they don't believe.

606
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 1: They don't believe herd immunity can be achieved by a

607
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: combination of vaccination and natural infection, which of course they're

608
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: wrong about, but they don't care. Do what they say,

609
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 1: do what they say. That's all this really comes down to,

610
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 1: do what you are told. There are people who have

611
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 1: a COVID anxiety disorder mixed with a virtue signaling obsession

612
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,359
