Welcome Patriots on this glorious Friday. Thank god 9 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: it's Friday, folks. Listen. I had a speaking engagement today 10 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: and you want to know where it was. I had 11 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 1: a speaking engagement today at my daughter's high school. It 12 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: was for the entire school. So she goes to a 13 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: small school. They are about four hundred kids there, one 14 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: hundred kids per class freshman through senior. And I'll tell 15 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: you I have spoken all over the world. And again, 16 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: this isn't like too, this isn't about impressing you. I'm 17 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,119 Speaker 1: just telling you spoken all over the world. I spoke 18 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: in primetime at the Republican National Convention back in twenty twenty. 19 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: On Monday, I've spoken live in front of thousands of people, 20 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: tens of thousands of people at the Trump Rally. Normally, 21 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: anytime you speak, it's normal to get butterflies, right, it's normal. 22 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: But rarely, if ever, do I get nervous. I just 23 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: speak from the heart. That's just the only way that 24 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: I know. The only time that I ever get nervous, 25 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: and I mean ever is when you When I talk 26 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: to kids, what I speak to he doesn't matter, middle school, 27 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: high school, it's all the same. That makes me nervous. 28 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: Let me tell you, I do not envy our teachers. 29 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: I was before I joined the Army. I was an 30 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: elementary education major for a short time. I spent a 31 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: couple of days, maybe a little longer student teaching second grade, 32 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: and after a few days, I just being very honest 33 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: with you, it was not for me. It was definitely 34 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: not for me. Not because I didn't like teaching, but 35 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: because it's really really hard to teach young kids to learn. 36 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: I mean, everyone learns differently. And I just thought, oh, 37 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: this is not for me. And then nine to eleven happened. 38 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: Then everything changed, and you well you know the rest. 39 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: But I was really really nervous, and like, look, I 40 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: talked to the kids. You know, it's a Veterans Day thing. 41 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: They did this the National Honor Society. At my it 42 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: was for my oldest daughter at her high school. They 43 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: did this thing for Veterans Day, and they did a 44 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: great job. They had this band. First of all, their 45 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: band is great. Their band is really good. They played 46 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: all the military songs. It was the Army song, really 47 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: really good. That's a hard song to play, but they 48 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: crushed it. They had colors posted, they had a National 49 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: Guard unit there to do that. It was it was good. 50 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: They said the pledge, they had the choir sing the 51 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: national anthem. I was very, very very impressed, And so 52 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: I got up there and I talked to those kids 53 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: about the importance of veterans telling their stories, about the 54 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: importance of the American people being there to listen and 55 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: establishment establishing and understanding of what it takes to defend freedom. 56 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: Because the truth is, we only point five percent of 57 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: this nation serving during our longest period of war in 58 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: our nation's history, Iraq, Afghanistan. Most people for a very 59 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: and this isn't like an indictment on the American people. 60 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: This is just how our culture is. The American people 61 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: are amazing. Everywhere you go, people are thanking you for 62 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: your service. We're very blessed to live in this country. 63 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: But you know, only less than half of one percent 64 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: served during twenty years in Iraq and Afghanistan. So people 65 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: should know what that service was like. Veterans should talk 66 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: about it. The American people should listen. An educated society 67 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: means we send less stupid people to Washington. But by 68 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: the way, both Democrats and Republicans we say, an educated 69 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: society means that we send more people to Washington who 70 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: actually understand what it means to go to war and 71 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: understand what it means to defend freedom, and understand what 72 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: it means to sacrifice for this country. And those are 73 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: the people who are making decisions about whether or not 74 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: they should send us in the first place. So you 75 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: see why it's so important. That's why doing events like 76 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: this with high schoolers is important to me. I mean 77 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: for that reason alone, but also service to something greater 78 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 1: than yourself, whether it's in the military or something else. 79 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 1: I really do believe that service is just it's just 80 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: so important to living a meaningful life. Giving of yourself 81 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: to others expecting nothing in return is truly the pathway 82 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: to a meaningful life. Now, it's a very difficult life. 83 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: It's hard, it's hard to it's very difficult to give 84 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: of yourself and never expect to thank you, because, believe 85 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: it or not, if you live your life that way, 86 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: you will find yourself. And this is just normal human nature, folks. 87 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: But you will find yourself saying, holy holy shit, I 88 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: did all this for this person and I didn't even 89 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: get a thank you. But that's not why we do 90 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: that's not why we serve. We do things for people. 91 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: At least this is what I tell myself. We do 92 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: things for people not expecting to get recognition. We do 93 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: things for people because it's what right is, what right 94 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: looks like. It's there's a reason why people say, you know, 95 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: the hard right. In other words, the path of doing 96 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: good and doing right in the world is often not 97 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 1: easy to walk. That's why I like to hear leaders do, 98 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: Hey I do. I take the hard right over the 99 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: easy wrong. To me, that's what that means. But talking 100 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: to those kids, they are just so motivating. Love those kids. 101 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: So that was pretty awesome. Smash that like button, that 102 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: little green thumb beneath the video. It helps us make 103 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: the leaderboard. We made it last night. I love making 104 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: the leaderboard, and with you, we've been making it most 105 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: every day. Okay, I gotta talk about these cabinet picks. 106 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 1: Then we got Brian Dean Wright. It's right night here 107 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: in a little bit, folks. Brian and I have so 108 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: much to talk about. I mean, seriously, we're gonna talk 109 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: about the cabinet, we're talking about President Trump. We're gonna 110 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: talk about you know, global intelligence update, as we always do. 111 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: But the resultso this committee hearing on Capitol Hill on 112 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: UFOs and yes that sounds you heard was my wife 113 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: like groaning. Uh, she hates when I go all in 114 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: on UFO talk. But there was a hearing on Capitol 115 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,559 Speaker 1: Hill today and we're gonna talk about that too because 116 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: you need to know about it. So standby for a 117 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: really kick ass show, folks. The media is still going 118 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,799 Speaker 1: apoplectic about Trump's cabinet positions, and I have to say 119 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,679 Speaker 1: I'm here for it. The media can't seem to wrap 120 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: their mind around the fact that Trump wants to support 121 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: peopole who are loyal to his agenda. The media makes 122 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: it seem, and many Democrats as well, that these are 123 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: just hardliner extremists. Oh they want field to I mean, listen, 124 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: listen to Jake Tapper, this guy, Monica Luwitzki's boyfriend man 125 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: who is just such adult. 126 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 3: Loyal not just loyal people who display fealty. Maga warriors. 127 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: That seems to be the constant theme. They are, They 128 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 3: are maga warriors. They are in your face. These are 129 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: not uniting people. These are not uniting picks. These are 130 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 3: in your face, in your face to the medical community, 131 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 3: to the intelligence community, to the military community. Ever, that's 132 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 3: what he wants. 133 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: Maga loyalists. Who. Man, does that sound clickbait worthy, doesn't it? 134 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: Maga loyalists, Well, the president should appoint people who are 135 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: loyal to his agenda. The main issue with the first 136 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: Trump administration, and this is not a knock. We've talked 137 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: about this on this show many many times, is that 138 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: President Trump did not fire the top thirty people at 139 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: every institution in this country. He believed that he could 140 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: work across the aisle. He could believe. He believed that 141 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: we could achieve harmony and by partisanship in this country. 142 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: What he didn't believe, what he didn't realize at the time, 143 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: is just how deep the swamp is and that the 144 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: Democrats are radical people who do not love this country. 145 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: I'm talking specifically about Democrats in Washington, the new Democrat 146 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: Party they don't love this country. They're not the same 147 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: as Western Pennsylvania Union Democrats who fly the American flag 148 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: and work hard for a living and love their country 149 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: and their pro life and their program. There are lots 150 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: of Democrats like that in Pennsylvania and all across this country. 151 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: But the New Democrat Party, they are held captive by 152 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: the most radical elements of their party. And I would 153 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: just put forth that they don't love America because they're 154 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: always trying to fundamentally change it. But the media, yeah, 155 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: they act like Trump appointing people that are loyal is 156 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: a bad thing. Actually, no, it's like are you loyal? 157 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: Question one? Are you? Question two? Are you qualified? That's 158 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: not a very high bar. But the media is gaslighting 159 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: you into thinking that appointing people who are loyal is 160 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: a bad thing. Now, let they talk to you about 161 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: something else that the media does. That absolutely drives me crazy. 162 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: I mean it's especially driven me crazy these last few days. 163 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: The media calling for loyalty is one thing, but now 164 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: the media is saying, well, these aren't unifying picks at all. 165 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: Unifying since when was unifying and bipartisanship a part of 166 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: the of the campaign promise Trump has always been bipartisan. 167 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: In fact, let me tell you Trump is moderate by 168 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: the New America First standards. Like Trump is moderate, He's 169 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: the leader of the movement, there's no question about it. 170 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 1: But the people who are coming in his wake, like 171 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: the people who are following along this movement, I'm far, 172 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: I'm far a more hard line America First, and many 173 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: others like me are as well. But my point is 174 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: unity was never part of the equation. The Democrats only 175 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: call for unity when they're out of power. You notice 176 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: how that works. This is why I warn people on 177 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: this show be wary of the alive branches that the 178 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: left extends to you. When the left and these commie 179 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: mouth breathers extend all of branches normally, what that means 180 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 1: is that they are at a tactical and political disadvantage. 181 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: Instead of accepting an alive branch and saying, yeah, we've 182 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: got a dial back their rhetoric, or yeah, you know, 183 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: let's pick people who are unifying. No, what the left 184 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 1: means by unifying that, what they really mean by that 185 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: is they want someone who will back down. They want 186 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: someone who's not a fighter. They want someone who can 187 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: be who listens and cares about what the mainstream corporate 188 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: corporate media thinks. They want a gentleman loser, and the 189 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: days of the Republican Party being the party of the 190 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: gentleman loser are over. In this is Trump's second term, 191 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: he doesn't have to worry about winning another election. We 192 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: have four years to get the job done. We have 193 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: four years, and I'm telling you it took two plus 194 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: years to get many of Trump's judges and confirmations done 195 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: the first go around. The Democrats did everything that they 196 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: could to drag their feet this time around. We can't 197 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 1: play games. We can't afford to play games, can't afford 198 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: to mess around with a confirmation process. That's this is 199 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: why President Trump is so adamant along with his President 200 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 1: Trump's advisors that they're that they're adamant about using recess appointments. 201 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: The idea that the House and the Senate, when they're 202 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: in the middle of a dispute uh the president, the 203 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: president can force a recess if the houses are in 204 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: disagreement about that recess and the president in the in 205 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: that and oversimplifying here, but during that recess, the president 206 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: can appoint what's called recess appointments for the term of 207 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: that Congress, which is two years. So this is why 208 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: President Trump and his allies are talking about using recess appointments. 209 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: It's because the Democrats that everything they could to stifle 210 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: his confirmations and his appointments. The first time around took 211 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: two three years for some of these people to get confirmed. 212 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: Can't afford that this time around. We've got real transformative 213 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: work that we have to do to root out the 214 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: deep state, to root out corruption, and hit the reset 215 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: button on all of these once venerated institutions that we 216 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: have here in the country. One of my buddies, Jesse Kelly, 217 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: said something than today that Republicans, old school Republicans still 218 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: revere our institutions. And I remember what that party was 219 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 1: like because I was a part of it, and I 220 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: had my eyes opened by the corruption of the Democrats. 221 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: But the Democrats have infiltrated in key positions all of 222 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: these institutions. So you have Republicans who are still clinging 223 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: to the old guard and revering institutions that they shouldn't 224 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: be revering anymore, and Democrats having infiltrated them. I mean, 225 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: this is why this second Trump term is just so 226 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: important to hit the reset button on all of these 227 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: institutions so that they can gain back the trust of 228 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 1: the American people. Okay, enough for me. We've got the 229 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: great Brian Dean right on deck, and we have a lot, 230 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 1: a lot to talk about. So without further ado, let 231 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: me bringing my friend Brian Dean Wright, Oh, sir, former 232 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: CIA operations officer and the host of the Right Report 233 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: Daily podcast. You got your jacket, you got your collared shirt. Yes, 234 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: and snazzy as my grandmother. I gotta class it up 235 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: for you guys. Come on your your crew. You guys 236 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: are top shelf. Yeah, I address it up. Okay, so 237 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: we got where do we even go? Okay, we win 238 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: this historic victory, we have this mandate. Trump has been 239 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: so decisive about appointing members of his cabinet. I played 240 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: this sound that you didn't hear before you joined about 241 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: Jake Tapper, saying, well, he's just appointing MAGA loyalists. These 242 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: are hardliners. These aren't unifying picks. And I said, it's 243 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: so interesting that the only time the left really cares 244 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: about unity is when they're down and out, which is 245 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: why I caution people about taking all of branches from 246 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: the radical left. Normally when when the Left offers all 247 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: of branches, it's because they're at a tactical and political disadvantage. 248 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: Can't fall for that this go around. And so Trump 249 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: is appointing all of these people, and the media has 250 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: been going aplectic about Pete Hegseth, about Tuca Gabbard. I 251 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: have all this sound that I want to play for 252 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: you on Tulsea Gabbard. But before we get to that, 253 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: tell me what you think about this whole process. 254 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 3: Well, first, I think most of us, irrespective of party affiliation, 255 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 3: understand that when we all vote, we vote for a 256 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 3: president and their view of how the country should be run. Yeah, 257 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 3: so there is deference that should be given to the 258 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 3: president to build his or her team. Now, the Senate has, 259 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 3: of course advice and consent. But what happens in DC, 260 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 3: and I can tell you this from personal experience, is 261 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 3: typically that is used to really sour grapes. Right, So 262 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 3: Democrats are saying, well, we're going to use our power 263 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 3: for sour grapes, or Republicans in the Senate because they 264 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 3: don't like Trump, or some wing or going to use 265 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: the advice and consent to shoot down the president's picks. 266 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 3: Generally speaking, that's how that is used. So let's be 267 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 3: super clear on that. But let's equally remember that the 268 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 3: American people spoke very very loudly, and they gave mister 269 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: Trump and his team and both the presidency the House 270 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 3: in the Senate. So let's just remember that as we 271 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 3: talk about all the different picks. 272 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, the Trump the Trump administration, whether 273 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: it's Trump or Biden. A president is entitled to his cabinet, 274 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: I mean, especially when you win a mandate the way 275 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: the President Trump did, carrying an electoral college victory and 276 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: a popular vote victory, which, by the way, it's poetic 277 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: justice on so many levels because if President Trump did 278 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: not win that popular vote victory, We've had to hear 279 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: for four years about how the electoral college needs to 280 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: go and then he oh my god, Trump did. People 281 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: really don't support him. They can't do that now. And 282 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: so for me, Brian, you know, these Democrats, a lot 283 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: of them in the Senate don't really need, you know, 284 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: any real political reason to oppose some of these these 285 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: nominees or these appointments. They just do because they're hardliners. 286 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: But I do think that there are other Democrats in 287 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: the Senate, maybe more moderate Democrats that might say that 288 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: have the same view that I have, maybe even you have, 289 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: that a president is entitled to their cabinet. He won 290 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: a mandate, and who am I to stand in the way. 291 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: What do you think? 292 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 3: Well, yes, amen. The point of the advisor the consent 293 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 3: piece was for the Senate to serve as sort of 294 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 3: that outside voice of wisdom to say, look, you do 295 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 3: have the right to form your cabinet, but this one 296 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 3: or two and extraordinary circumstances should be somebody that we 297 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 3: need to really rethink. So there was a slight checking 298 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 3: balance on that. So that was the general idea. But 299 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 3: the argument for advice and consent is about wisdom and 300 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 3: discernment and providing the president lots of leash, but just 301 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 3: to be that backstop, that emergency button, just in case 302 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 3: things went really off the rails. So if we were 303 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 3: to have somebody who was going to be a Communist 304 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 3: appointed to the cabinet back in the Cold War, that 305 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 3: would probably be a circumstance where we would say all right, no, 306 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 3: or back in the day, you know, somebody who was 307 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 3: a British sympathizer going into the cabinet. You know, all right, 308 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 3: that makes sense for the Senate to step in. But 309 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: that's not what we have seen over the past week 310 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 3: or so with all these different nominations. It's just political sniping. 311 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 3: And that's what the American people, i think, said last week. 312 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 3: We're tired of enough of that. So let Trump choose 313 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 3: who we want, and let's have a debate about their 314 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 3: experiences and their qualifications. Sure, but the end of the day, 315 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 3: if we don't like them, in two years, we have 316 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 3: a chance to vote again in another federal election. And 317 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 3: then four years henceforward, if JD. Vans or others decided 318 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 3: to move forward with the presidency, we all get to 319 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 3: weigh in. That's how it's supposed to work. We just 320 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 3: voted in the guy. Let them have a chance to 321 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 3: choose his team. 322 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: Holy smokes, you just use henceforth in a sentence in 323 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: a very fluid way. Very impressive. It was very, very 324 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: very impressive. 325 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 3: I went to online schools, thank you. 326 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: So, speaking of communists, I'm gonna play a couple of 327 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: pieces of sound. Okay, it's about Tausi Gabbard, and this 328 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: narrative has gone out there about Tausi and many of 329 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: Trump's members of his cabinet. But it's like any time, 330 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: it's like the same old shit. Oh their allies inexperienced 331 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 1: and allies of Putin, or they sexually assaulted all these people. 332 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: I'm serious. It seems like that is the Left is 333 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: what they do. It's what they do to buckets. Yees. 334 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: So okay, So let me play some of this sound 335 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: and I want to get your reaction to the Taulsie 336 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: stuff her. 337 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 4: Director Brennan, your thoughts about Tulsi Gabbard, Well. 338 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 2: Nicole, I think you and Tom Nichols have done a 339 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 2: great job just underscoring all the concerns that people have 340 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 2: about this appointment. Clearly, Tulsea Gabbert has taken actions and 341 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 2: made statements over the past several years that really raised 342 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 2: serious questions about her common sense, her judgment, as well 343 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 2: as her political sympathies. Closing up to Putin as well 344 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 2: as to meeting with the bashar Asad, I think really 345 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 2: does show that she doesn't have the type of perspective 346 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 2: that is needed for somebody who's going to head up 347 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 2: these eighteen intelligence agencies. And as Tom Nichols said, she 348 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 2: doesn't have any qualifications the director of National Intelligence. That's 349 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: a really serious position and a very complex and complicated 350 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 2: one that requires somebody who actually has an understanding of 351 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: the intelligence community. It's like an orchestra conduct of all 352 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 2: the different agencies and departments that are involved in the 353 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 2: intelligence process. And I don't think she understands even with 354 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 2: the instruments that are involved in this orchestra. 355 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: So that was Brennan, commy CIA director. And now here's 356 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: Abby Spanberger, I think, congresswoman from Virginia. Listen, listen to 357 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: the narrative. 358 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 5: When it comes to the specifics of the d n 359 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 5: I role. Someone who has aligned herself previously with Russia, 360 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 5: with Syria, with regimes the world over is not in 361 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 5: a position to have it, should not be in a 362 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 5: position to have any of the information that is, you know, 363 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 5: America's greatest secrets. 364 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: And just so there's that. So those so by the way, Brennan, CIA, 365 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: span Burger, CIA, right, and then so take that and 366 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: then now listen to listen to AOC. 367 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 3: You're already directing. 368 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 6: And we have to even gotten to Tulsea Gabber potentially 369 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 6: having access to national security information and Russia loves it, 370 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 6: loves her. 371 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 7: And I actually think almost more than Matt Gates, Tulsy 372 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 7: Gabbard's appointment is devastating, and Tulsy Gabbard's nomination. As much 373 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 7: as she says that she's an anti war person, she's not. 374 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:20,719 Speaker 7: She supports very pro war individuals. 375 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 6: Including in Syria. 376 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 7: And let's be very clear, Tulsi gabbard nomination is a 377 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 7: pro war nomination globally, point blank period. 378 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 6: As is Donald Trump as president of the United States. 379 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 3: What is going on here? 380 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: This is insane. This is insane. 381 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 3: So everything that you just heard, none of it's factual. 382 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 3: So let's start with this. The Democrats were angry at 383 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 3: Tulci Gabbard, or angry the fact that they sort of 384 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 3: groomed her for years to try to take over a 385 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 3: very senior leadership position. She was the vice chair, i believe, 386 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 3: with the DNC, so she was a very senior Democrat 387 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 3: on the opina going up the ladder, and she gets 388 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 3: them over some very important ideological questions to include foreign 389 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 3: affairs and foreign wars, and so they're very angry at her. 390 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 3: So we able to understand that the arrows that are 391 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 3: being thrown at Tulsia Gabbert have to do a lot 392 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 3: with that process of her basically telling them no. The 393 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 3: system the Democrats system or Republican doesn't like when you 394 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 3: give them the middle finger, and that's Tulsia Gabbert did. 395 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 3: So that's where a lot of this stuff from AOC 396 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 3: and that crazy other lady that you just flat I 397 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 3: remember its name. The point no, well, I'm talking about 398 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: the host. The point is aiming to read. Yes, we're 399 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 3: gonna get to Spamburg in a second. So the point is, 400 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 3: so let's just understand that that Democrats are very angry 401 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 3: with Tulsi for ditching them. She broke up with them. 402 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: Okay. 403 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 3: Second, this issue that you have to be deeply burrowed 404 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 3: inside of the intelligence community to understand it and to 405 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 3: offer up good advice and good counsel like we wreck. 406 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 3: Remind everyone that every year the Pentagon and the CIA 407 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 3: pays hundreds of millions dollars of dollars to organizations and 408 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 3: businesses like McKenzie Income and others to come in and 409 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 3: do evaluations outside evaluations of different programs, of different processes 410 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 3: to help the intelligence community how to be better, how 411 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 3: to be smarter. These organizations like McKenzie are paid to 412 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,959 Speaker 3: be an outside voice without the experience, to help give 413 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 3: them a fresh opinion or fresh perspective to look at 414 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 3: a problem for the first time. So the intelligence community 415 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 3: and Depentagon pays hundreds of millions of dollars for that 416 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 3: council and that wisdom. So Tulsi Gabbert, if nothing else, 417 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 3: can do that and provide that at much cheaper of 418 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 3: a price. Right, So what a couple hundred grand a 419 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 3: year of tops in terms of her salary. So let's start. 420 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 3: So let's start with this issue of experience around that, 421 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 3: and the icing in Depentzagon understands that actually have an 422 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 3: outside voices in council are quite smart, in her case, 423 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 3: a former service member and somebody who unquestionably loves this country. 424 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 3: Third of this issue of experience, This comes up again 425 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 3: and again when we talk about Tulsia Gabbard or peak heads, 426 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,959 Speaker 3: Pete hegg Seth or others, ladies and gentlemen. Right now, 427 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 3: right now in Ukraine, they are talking to both the 428 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 3: Germans and the French and the others for the very 429 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 3: first time about giving up that war because the war 430 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 3: is lost. The German Chancellor is now reaching out to 431 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 3: Ladimir Putin for the first time in two years. Here's 432 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 3: the point. Very smart people with lots of experiences said 433 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 3: that we should get involved in that war. It's lost, 434 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 3: just like Iraq, just like Afghanistan. So experience does not 435 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 3: equal judgment, it does not equal wisdom nor discernment. So 436 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 3: when we have these nomination processes where we go on 437 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 3: Capitol Hill and we hear from these people like Tulsia 438 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 3: Gabbert or Pete Head said the others, I want to 439 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 3: hear about their experience, absolutely, but I also want to 440 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 3: hear them talk about wisdom and judgment and discernment and 441 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 3: why they would have disagreed with other policy solutions because 442 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 3: the current one that we are in right now with 443 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 3: Ukraine two hundred billion dollars, we are into this war 444 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 3: and we have lost it. We have also lost or 445 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 3: the people of Ukraine have lost hundreds of thousands of 446 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 3: their men. They're not going to recover from that anytime soon, sure, 447 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 3: or they already had a population or demographic challenge in 448 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 3: that country. Two hundred less men to make a turn, 449 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 3: thousand less men to make babies. That's an issue for 450 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 3: that country. You bet it is going to be moving forward. 451 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 3: So when we have the conversation about experience, let's do 452 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 3: it wisdom, judgment, discernment, also should be a part of 453 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 3: that conversation, because very smart people for twenty five years 454 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 3: have gotten us into three wars cost trillions of dollars, 455 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 3: and I'm not interested in business as usual. 456 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: God, that is such a good point. Spending hundreds of 457 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: millions of dollars on McKenzie and company consulting for that 458 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: outsider perspective. So in one case, you're paying for the 459 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: outsider perspective, but then on the other hand, you're complaining. 460 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: And this is not just like media pundits. These are 461 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: anonymous Pentagon sources when you're talking about PETE or Intel sources, 462 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: when you're talking about Tulsi. You have people now complaining 463 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 1: about a lack of experience from the person who's running it, 464 00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: yet they pay for people who have no experience outside 465 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: the Pentagon's I mean, it's it's absolutely ridiculous. And see, 466 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: this is precisely why I mean, obviously you can't have 467 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: that both ways, but this is precisely why such bold 468 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: reform is needed at all of our institutions. They are 469 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: they are sick, they are big, they are bloated, They 470 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: lack transparency. The Pentagon alone waste hundreds of billions of 471 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: dollars on like nothing. It's it's absolutely insane the stuff 472 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: that happens, and how frivolously some of these institutions spend 473 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: American taxpayer dollars and and all of this happened, Brian, 474 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: with these so called experts in charge. They're the ones 475 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: that got us into this position in the first place. 476 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: And so it's just part of me wonders, is this 477 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: just reformers not being appreciated in their time, specifically referring 478 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: to Trump to to you know, Pete, to Tulsi and others. 479 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: These people they want old substantive reform, but the system 480 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: is always going to resist that. Right. 481 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 3: Sure, you have to understand if you were inside of 482 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 3: the Intelligence Committee, for example, that Pentagon's the same way 483 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 3: you believe after a while that you're special, and to 484 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 3: have an outsider coming in question what you do or 485 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 3: how you do it, you can take a little bit 486 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 3: of umbrage unless you managed to settle your pride and say, 487 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 3: you know, maybe I don't know everything. I could give 488 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 3: you a thousand stories where I as ahead of a 489 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 3: guy who did cover action would go to some of 490 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,880 Speaker 3: our experienced people, very smart people, analysts about foreign problems 491 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 3: and say hey, look, I'm looking at this satellite imagery, 492 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 3: are getting this intel. It doesn't match what you, the 493 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 3: expert are saying, Maybe you're wrong, and they would say no. 494 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 3: In fact, I can tell you there's a country in 495 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 3: a part of the world that is very bad and 496 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 3: they have nuclear weapons and they shouldn't. And I would 497 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 3: take satellite imagery and other intel to an analyst and say, 498 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 3: looks like we got a problem here, and they're like, 499 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 3: don't worry about that particular program of that bad country, 500 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 3: it's nothing. They ignore it. Six months later that country 501 00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 3: had a much more advanced nuclear weapons program because expert 502 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 3: refused to admit that they could be wrong. So that's 503 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 3: the culture of what an outsider can do. Can come 504 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 3: in and ask tough questions, and if they have enough 505 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 3: leadership power like a Tulsi Gabber would or John Radcliffe 506 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 3: at the CIA, or a Pete Hegsett at Pentagon, they 507 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 3: can say you're going to justify your view to me, 508 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 3: and if I disagree, shut up, color do whatever you 509 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 3: want to do, but we're going in a different direction. 510 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 3: The next piece that I would just emphasize is just this, 511 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 3: if I may this whole we're talking to Russia thing 512 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 3: we're talking to Putin. We're going to hear this again 513 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 3: and again, brother, I promise you. But I want to 514 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: emphasize the German chancellor today just reached out to Vladimir 515 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 3: Putin's the first time since twenty twenty two, because he 516 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 3: and other European leaders know that the war there is 517 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 3: lost in Ukraine. The Washington Post just reported on this 518 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 3: that other European leaders are aware that Ukraine is not 519 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 3: going to win this war, so they're gonna have to 520 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 3: talk to Putin. So if Tulsi Gabbard believed in her 521 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 3: mind that what we were doing in Syria or Ukraine 522 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 3: or otherwise was wrong, that's a policy difference. You and 523 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 3: I in cheek, the three of us can disagree on 524 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 3: whether or not that's smart to talk to Putin or 525 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 3: deal with Russia or a Basar assad in Syria. That's 526 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 3: a policy disagreement that is not treason a b Let 527 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 3: me emphasize one final thing about experience. 528 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: That's a great point, by the way, that's a great point. Yeah, 529 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: just because you have a difference of opinion on war 530 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: and how to deal with different foreign leaders does not 531 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: mean you're an ally of them. It actually shuts down 532 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: substance of conversation about how to solve these issues, which. 533 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 3: Is the point. If you're part of the military industrial complex, 534 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 3: you don't want a conversation about a rock Afghanistan and Ukraine. 535 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 3: You want Congress to shut up and keep checking. You're 536 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 3: giving you a check. So it's to be super honest 537 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 3: about that. But I want to emphasize one final thing 538 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 3: about experience and expertise. You may recall that last May 539 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 3: and June, the United States military was directed by the 540 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 3: White House to build a peer off the coast of 541 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 3: Goaza three and fifty million dollars depends. Ongon told the 542 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 3: White House don't don't do it, because the winds are 543 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 3: too strong and the waves are too high. That peer 544 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 3: will never work. But the very smart people of the 545 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 3: Experience said, let's do it anyway. They did it. Not 546 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 3: only did that peer collapse, three undred fifty plus million 547 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 3: dollars absolutely wasted. But here's the point. Last week a 548 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 3: sergeant died from the injuries that he experienced on that 549 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 3: peer last June. So experience is important. But when you 550 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 3: have people who don't have wisdom and judgment and discernment, 551 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 3: you end up if I can curse for a second 552 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 3: with a fucking peer off the coast of Gaza that 553 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 3: results in a young man's death aged twenty. I am 554 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 3: so tired of those stories of people in Washington, DC, 555 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 3: at the CIA, at the Pentagon, the White House and 556 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 3: National Security Council killing my brothers and sisters abroad with 557 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 3: wars and things that don't deserve to be built or 558 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 3: wars to be fought. I'm gonna guess you probably have 559 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 3: friends too, you've said of your back porch or over 560 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 3: a beer, and they're dealing with struggles and challenges related 561 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 3: to PTSD in a rock in Afghanistan. They don't have 562 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 3: arms or legs. I am tired of that. In those 563 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 3: conversations where they want to put a bullet in their head, 564 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 3: I am tired of those conversations. I'm ready for a 565 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 3: different kind of leadership that is willing to challenge and 566 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 3: if they have experienced, great, But I want wisdom, I 567 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 3: want judgment, I want discernment because I want a new 568 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 3: damn country that knows what the hell that's doing. 569 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: That is so so well said and just so powerful, 570 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: and I think you're absolutely right. I mean, it really 571 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: leads us to the next topic, and that's this whole 572 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: like Trump purge that the media is on about. Oh, 573 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: he's gonna gut you know. RFK already said he's going 574 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: to fire six hundred people from from AHHS and oh, 575 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 1: look at Pete Haig Saith. He's going to get rid 576 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: of all these woke generals and oh my gosh, I 577 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: mean all this Trump purge. I don't know, man, it 578 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: feels like it's kind of necessary. It just does. 579 00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 3: So let's first talk about whether or not it's appropriate constitutionally. So, 580 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 3: going back to the Civil War in this country, President 581 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 3: Lincoln was absolutely tired of General McClellan of the Army 582 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 3: of the Potomac and him his leadership, lack of leadership, 583 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 3: lack of following orders, insubordination. It just wanted a different call, 584 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 3: different choice, and so President Lincoln dumped him because he 585 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: was a crappy general, and his folks may remember from 586 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 3: our history books, McClellan was angry about that, joined the 587 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 3: Damn Crab Party tried to run against Lincoln in eighteen 588 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 3: sixty four and lost. So it's not that in this 589 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 3: country since in those years since that a president has 590 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 3: disagreed with his or her generals and said, you know what, 591 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 3: we're going to move in a different direction, and we're 592 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 3: actually going to fire you because we are tired of 593 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 3: either your insubordination or lack of good leadership. The commander 594 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 3: in chief has the constitutional authority and indeed the obligation 595 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 3: to do that. So let's start with that. When people 596 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 3: start talking about, you know, Trump engaging and nay it off, 597 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 3: can't learn Nazi Fascis album, all right enough, all right 598 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 3: this country. The constitution makes clear that Trump has that authority. 599 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 3: You don't like Trump, you don't like who he fires, 600 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 3: tough craft. The conversations over the election was last week, 601 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 3: complain about it in four years when you have somebody 602 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 3: else who's not Kamala Harrison garbage. So now we get 603 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 3: to the second pointer question of when we are going 604 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 3: to clean house. As a president has the prerogative to do, 605 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 3: how best should they do that? I think most reasonable 606 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 3: people would say, well, let's not base that just on 607 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 3: some personality whim, although the president has the authority to 608 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 3: do that too. But the point is, ask them tough question, 609 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 3: a set of questions, and that's what the Trump administration 610 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 3: is currently doing. They have designed what they're calling a 611 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 3: warrior board with retired generals and colonels and others sitting down, 612 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 3: non commissioned officers and sitting and going through both the 613 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 3: Joint Chief's staff as well as senior Pentagon leadership, the 614 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 3: three and four star guys. Do you have the leadership 615 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 3: that this country needs and are you going to follow 616 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 3: the direction of the President of the United States Donald Trump. 617 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 3: That Warrior board is going to interview those individuals and 618 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 3: make recommendations in Trump and except those are not. That 619 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 3: is fair, that is legitimate. So the Joint chiefs a 620 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 3: guy named C. Q. 621 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: Brown. 622 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 3: He is somebody who whether you like him or not, 623 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 3: the bottom line, he is a very political guy. He 624 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,800 Speaker 3: is somebody who believes in DEI that whole regiment, not 625 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 3: just diversity that is important because yes, I think most 626 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 3: of us would say diversity is important. But it is 627 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 3: a political goal for him, and so he deserves it. 628 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 3: And Trump's mighty be fired. He has a constitutional authority 629 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 3: to do that. So fine guys like General Mark Millie, 630 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 3: his predecessor, same thing. 631 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: You know. 632 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 3: He sat down in front of Congress and he said, 633 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 3: I want to understand white privilege because it's such a 634 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 3: terrible problem in the military. That data did not support 635 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 3: that at all, and yet he jumped on this political bandwagon. 636 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 3: Donald Trump has the right and the obligation constitutionally to 637 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 3: toss his ass out. So here again, this conversation should 638 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 3: if we're going to have it, let's use history, let's 639 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 3: use constitutional facts and data, and let's move forward. In fact, 640 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 3: if we want to, we can talk about what Obama 641 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 3: and others have done as well. They wired generals too well. 642 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and like this is why this is necessary. Listen, 643 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: you look at this. 644 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 3: White House now, and it's hard to imagine two FBI 645 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 3: agents ending up in the State Room. How did that happen? 646 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: I sent them. 647 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 8: Something I probably wouldn't have done or maybe gotten away 648 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 8: with in a more organized investigation, a more organized administration 649 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 8: in the George W. Bush administration, for example, or the 650 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 8: Obama administration, and both of those administrations, there was process, 651 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 8: and so if the FBI wanted to send agents into 652 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 8: the White House itself to interview a senior official, you 653 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 8: would work through the White House Council and there'd be 654 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 8: discussions and approvals and it would be there. And I thought, 655 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 8: it's early enough. Let's just send a couple guys over there. 656 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: They are laughing about destroying people's lives like Michael Flynn. 657 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: That's why this is necessary. 658 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, look, you're playing some clips or make my blood 659 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 3: pressure skyrocket. I need some medicine or some fucking vodka. Look, 660 00:35:58,680 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 3: vodka can be medicine. 661 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: That's great. 662 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 3: You know it's part corn. I don't know, it's a vegetable. 663 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,439 Speaker 3: I'm sure Bobby Kennedy's going to tell me that's not true. 664 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: Anyway. 665 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 3: The point is, yeah, what you just saw was in 666 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 3: an FBI director who engaged not just in lawlessness or 667 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 3: destroyed somebody's career like General Flynn. He attacked the country. 668 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 3: He just confirmed that he attacked this nation. That is 669 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 3: not hyperbole. We have heard over the past eight years 670 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,439 Speaker 3: how democracy dies in darkness. Well, we just heard people 671 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 3: laughing about it. So that is precisely I think what 672 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 3: smart people understand irrespect of a party. But that is 673 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 3: what the American people have decided that Donald Trump has 674 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 3: said for over many years, actually now for eight years, 675 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 3: that this deep state stuff, which is what comy is, 676 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 3: it's real. He just admitted to it. And by the way, 677 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 3: we have inspector general reports to confirm this, calling what 678 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 3: he did dangerous and unprecedented, not just for him but 679 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 3: the thirty thousand FBI employees that were under his employee. 680 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 3: So he has every right Donald Trump does to clean 681 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 3: up the federal bureaucracy for people who either like Comy 682 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 3: or were encouraged by Comy, who thought that actually what 683 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,919 Speaker 3: he did is really smart and it's a really good idea. 684 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:13,720 Speaker 3: I can weaponize my power and destroy a sitting president 685 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 3: or thwart his agenda. So that should be a bipartisan 686 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,479 Speaker 3: degree of outrage. I think every time we talk about 687 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer saying six ways of Sunday to get back 688 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 3: at you, it's real. It's important not just to talk 689 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 3: about to remind ourselves, because it really and truly is 690 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 3: about the future of this republic. It's not just General Flynn. 691 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 3: It's about whether or not we have a nation or 692 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 3: we turn into an Egypt or a Pakistan that is 693 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 3: just some sort of kleptocracy, or it's run by the 694 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 3: military or the intelligence community. That's what we end up as. 695 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 3: And this country is exceptional and we should keep it 696 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 3: that way. And the only way we're going to do 697 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 3: that is get rid of the federal bureaucracy, which, by 698 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 3: the way this week, we got confirmation eighty four percent 699 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,919 Speaker 3: of people who are federal employees when they gave money, 700 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 3: they gave to Kamala Harris and the Democrat Party. The 701 00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 3: four percent. 702 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: That to me, I mean, that to me is justification 703 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: enough to start to start cutting sling load on some 704 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 1: of these people. I'm serious. I mean, this is what 705 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 1: the Democrats do. They entrench their power by by you know, 706 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: with these federal with these federal government unions who give 707 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: all this money to Democrats. So as the government grows, 708 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 1: so does their donor base. It's all a big scam. 709 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: It's all a big scam. Man. So all right, could 710 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: you tell take right there and then we're gonna go 711 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 1: around the world. We're gonna go to Israel Iran. But 712 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 1: let me take a quick break. I'll be right back 713 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: with you. Let's do it, all right, stay right there, 714 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: all right, we'll be back with Brian Dean Wright in 715 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 1: just a second. Okay, back with Brian Dean Wright, host 716 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 1: of The Right Report, former CIA operations officer. Welcome back, 717 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:51,320 Speaker 1: my friend. Okay, So take us to Israel Iran. The 718 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: news broke late last night and Axios reported it, and 719 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: then there's been some breaking news throughout the day that 720 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 1: Israel destroyed an Iranian nuclearbity. Take us into that and 721 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 1: what happened. 722 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 3: All right, So to understand this, you have to understand 723 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 3: when we tried to take nuclear material, we miniaturize it, 724 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 3: we put it into a warhead. We have to have 725 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 3: something that causes an initial explosion. And I'm simplifying this, 726 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,280 Speaker 3: but the idea is you have to have some initial 727 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 3: explosions that then cause the bigger explosion. So what the 728 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 3: Israelis did is they attacked the facility that's creating or 729 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 3: has the equipment for some of these initial explosions, some 730 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 3: plastic parts and bits and pieces. The Israelis had good 731 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:32,719 Speaker 3: intel that exactly these kinds of machines were there and 732 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 3: that this is what they were creating, so they blew 733 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 3: the place up. So here's why that's wonderful. A because 734 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 3: these machines are very difficult to replace. Second, they're very 735 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 3: expensive to replace, and third, there aren't many people who 736 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,359 Speaker 3: make them. And so when the Iranians need to then 737 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 3: go around the world to try to find these things 738 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 3: and replace them, either our friends in Israel or the 739 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,400 Speaker 3: United States, we have some good folks who do these 740 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 3: kinds of things. They can find those machines and tinker 741 00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 3: with them so that they blow up, kind of like 742 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 3: the pay that we saw in places like Lebanon, or 743 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 3: we can just stop the sale or take all together. 744 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 3: So it's good news. It's going to slow that program 745 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 3: for quite some time, probably a couple of years, but 746 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 3: it doesn't get rid of the fundamental issue, which is 747 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 3: why you still need a bigger deal with the Ayatola 748 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 3: and that Iranian regime. 749 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: So so Brian, I guess the Iranians after some meeting 750 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,400 Speaker 1: with Elon Musk. Elon Musk met with Iranian leaders at 751 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,840 Speaker 1: the UN or something like that in New York. I 752 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: think it was which. 753 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 3: Demacros are asking for a federal investigation on. By the way, 754 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 3: I'm sure you saw that that the Attorney General needs 755 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 3: to investigate that. Two senators said it. Anyway, here we go. 756 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: Oh, that sounds a lot like the Democrats. So Iran 757 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: is now coming out and saying that they're not going 758 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 1: to try to kill Trump. Should what do you make 759 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 1: of this? Should be believed them? 760 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,280 Speaker 3: Well, I think if nothing else, it's an important signal 761 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 3: that is being delivered to mister Trump will directly and 762 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 3: indirect that they're willing to make a deal, and the 763 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:04,800 Speaker 3: reason that they're willing to make a deal here is 764 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 3: mostly economic. So for folks that are where, the Iranian 765 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 3: economy is not in good shape. Even though Joe Biden 766 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 3: and Kamala Harris have released some of those restrictions on 767 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 3: their oil and natural gas sales, I think it's about 768 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,399 Speaker 3: two and a half times more oil and gas being 769 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 3: sold right now under the current Biden Harris administration than 770 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 3: under Trump. Most of that's going to China, by the way, 771 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 3: But even with that addition, the economy is in the tank. 772 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 3: So the ayah Tola knows that he doesn't have a 773 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 3: lot of money for a big war with the United 774 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 3: States or Israel or others. The second thing is about 775 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 3: three four weeks ago when Israel took out that we 776 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:40,280 Speaker 3: were just talking about that nuclear place. They also destroyed 777 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 3: a lot of their missile defense systems. So right now 778 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 3: they're kind of like, you know, they've lost their bathe 779 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 3: them suit and they're coming out of the ocean and 780 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 3: everybody can see their bits. That's where Iran is right 781 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 3: now militarily, so they're in a very weak position. So 782 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 3: basically there's a moment then for Trump and the Israel 783 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,240 Speaker 3: and other era of powers who if historically for centuries 784 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:04,400 Speaker 3: been at odds with Tehran, to say, look, let's do 785 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 3: a deal. We kick your butt in Gaza and in Lebanon. 786 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,840 Speaker 3: We have just slacked you inside of Iran, inside of 787 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 3: Tehran as well, so let's do a deal. And so 788 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 3: I think what you're starting to see is Iran begrudgingly 789 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 3: saying all right, look, we're still dangerous and we're still 790 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 3: you know, but uh, maybe we should probably make a deal. 791 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 3: But I mean, so that's what's going on. 792 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: Don't you think that they're like, oh shit, Trump won. 793 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 1: He's gonna kill all of our leaders and might even 794 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 1: kill the Hyatola Like I mean, don't you think that 795 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: they might be yeah, like, well, hey, listen now that 796 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,320 Speaker 1: you want, we're not going to try to kill you anymore, 797 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 1: so please don't kill me. 798 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 3: It's not just the crazy you know, Orangeman bad. It's 799 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 3: that Orange Man is crazy. And Trump has said this 800 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 3: that he loves embracing or leaning into his craziness because 801 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 3: it makes foreign leaders really listen to him because they 802 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 3: don't know what to expect. And so I think you 803 00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 3: bet the Ayatola has seen a lot of his senior 804 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,280 Speaker 3: leadership and what's called the IRGC, one of their senior 805 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 3: units in terms of their military as well as of 806 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 3: course has the law and got in Hamas Swat, and 807 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:13,720 Speaker 3: he knows that he's got spies Israel, mostly Israeli spies. 808 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 3: Massad is inside of his own regime and he doesn't 809 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,840 Speaker 3: know how high that goes. So he's very anxious in 810 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 3: a way that frankly has not been true since the 811 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 3: nineteen seventy nine revolution. So this is a wonderful opening. 812 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,359 Speaker 3: And we've got some really interesting meetings happening right now 813 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 3: that the Saudis are sending senior leaders over to Tehran, 814 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,320 Speaker 3: some of their senior military leadership as well as the 815 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 3: President of Iran is having phone calls with the Crown 816 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 3: Prince of Saudi Arabia. I think that there are some 817 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,919 Speaker 3: and I know that there are some really great conversations 818 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 3: happening about a much bigger Middle East piece deal. So 819 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 3: fingers crossed. It is a wild place. It's like tack 820 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 3: to win on Star Wars, all those crazy characters, but 821 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 3: there's really an opportunity here to create a piece in 822 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 3: the Middle East for the first time in a very 823 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 3: very long time. 824 00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: That would be extraordinary. Okay. Take us to China getting 825 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: a huge port in Peru, and why does that matter 826 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: to us? 827 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 3: Okay, Back in twenty eleven, the Chinese company called Cosco. 828 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:14,800 Speaker 3: It's a shipping giant. They went to pep Costco, not Costco, Cosco, 829 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,280 Speaker 3: very different. Yes, good question. 830 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I stop there, I mean right right, No, No, 831 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: I mean it's Sean. I have to correct myself. Melanie 832 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 1: will go nuts if I love Sam's Club, not Costco. Record, 833 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 1: we don't shop a It's Sam's Club. But I digress. 834 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 3: Go well, anyway, so Cosco the very place that none 835 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 3: of us shop at. So it is a shipping giant 836 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 3: that is Chinese. And they went to Peru and said, look, 837 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 3: we'll spend anywhere from one to three billion dollars to 838 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 3: build this really great fancy port. You just have to 839 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,760 Speaker 3: agree to give us exclusivity. And the Peruvian said sure, 840 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 3: assuming that in the fine print it said that the 841 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 3: Peruvians still have basically a veto authority over the operations 842 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 3: and more importantly, which ships get to go into that 843 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,439 Speaker 3: port and how often and so forth. Well, the fine 844 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:05,240 Speaker 3: print did not say that. The Peruvian government said, oops, 845 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,279 Speaker 3: that was an administrative error. We want to renegotiate that. 846 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 3: President she said, ah no, here's why. For the next 847 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:15,360 Speaker 3: thirty years, the government of China gets exclusive use, not 848 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 3: just access to an operation of but they get exclusive 849 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 3: exclusive use of this port in Peru, which is about 850 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,840 Speaker 3: two three thousand miles away from some of our important 851 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 3: military installations on the West coast. So they can use 852 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 3: this for both commercial and military purposes. That's the point. 853 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 3: They have just gotten their first effectively military port on 854 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 3: this side of the Pacific Ocean. That's a huge deal. 855 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 3: That's why this matters. And I got to tell you, 856 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 3: we have known this as coming for years. Kamala Harris 857 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,400 Speaker 3: and our friend mister Joe Biden with his dementia, have 858 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,319 Speaker 3: been asleep at the wheel as this has been coming 859 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 3: down the pike. And now the problem's here. They just 860 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 3: inaugurated that today. In fact, the first ship is going 861 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,919 Speaker 3: to be heading out commercial ship next week from Peru 862 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 3: to Shanghai. It's a huge problem. Trump's Team's got a 863 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,480 Speaker 3: massive issue with this port in Peru. 864 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 1: So what do they do with it? What do you 865 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 1: if you're advising President Trump, what do you say to. 866 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:10,399 Speaker 3: Him, Oh my god, let me drink some more vodka. Look, 867 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 3: I think what you're gonna have to do here's twofold. 868 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 3: You're gonna have to to reach out to the president 869 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,720 Speaker 3: of Peru and basically say, if you want to eject 870 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 3: these people and refashion that agreement, we'll have your back 871 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,800 Speaker 3: to include military force. And that's how you squeeze President She. 872 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 3: And then you give She a call to say, look, 873 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 3: you ain't getting this port. If we need to make 874 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,239 Speaker 3: a deal in other parts of the world, let's do it. 875 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 3: But you ain't getting this port. So that's what this 876 00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 3: comes down to. This is no longer in a judge's hands. 877 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,439 Speaker 3: This is about a couple of bulls of mister Trump 878 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 3: mister She picking up a phone and ironing out a deal. 879 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:41,399 Speaker 3: That's how you make this this go away. 880 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,800 Speaker 1: Oh okay, well that's Trump is good at making deals, 881 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 1: I think, I think. But yeah, they He's gotta have 882 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 1: their work cut out for him, that's for sure. Okay, 883 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna play you two pieces of sound and then 884 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 1: I want your reaction to all are you. 885 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 3: Gonna make me angry again? I was just calming down. No, no, no, 886 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 3: I'm okny be angry. 887 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,040 Speaker 1: Ah, I want to talk about aliens, so this will 888 00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 1: make Melanie angry, but she doesn't like when I talk 889 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 1: about aliens. But we're going to talk about aliens anyway, 890 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:09,920 Speaker 1: because there was a committee in the US House of 891 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: Representatives that did a hearing on alien activity and I 892 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 1: would be remiss if we didn't talk about it. So listen, 893 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 1: and then I want your reaction as a CIA guy, 894 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,240 Speaker 1: and Brian, I swear if you've known about the existence 895 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 1: of aliens on this show the whole time and haven't 896 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 1: disclosed it with me, oh man, I'm gonna be pested. 897 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be pessed. Okay, say say there, listen to this. 898 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,800 Speaker 4: Okay, you've said that the government is in possession of 899 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 4: potentially non human spacecraft based on your experience and extensive 900 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,359 Speaker 4: conversations with experts. Do you believe our government has made 901 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 4: contact with intelligent. 902 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 9: Extraterrestrials something I can't discuss in public setting. 903 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 4: Okay, I can't ask when you think this occurred. If 904 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,320 Speaker 4: you believe we have crashed craft stated earlier, do we 905 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,040 Speaker 4: have the bodies of the pilots piloted this craft? 906 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 9: As I've stated publicly already in my News Nation Interview. 907 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,320 Speaker 9: Biologics came with some of these recoveries. 908 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, were they I guess human or non human? Biologics? 909 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 1: Non human? 910 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 9: And that was the assessment of people which recknowledge on 911 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 9: the program I talk to that are currently still on 912 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 9: the program. 913 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 1: Okay, So there's that. Now there's one more. Listen to 914 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:24,160 Speaker 1: this one. 915 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 4: Has the government conducted secret UAP crash rechieval programs? 916 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: Yes or no? 917 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 3: Yes? 918 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 1: Okay? 919 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:32,439 Speaker 4: Were they designed to identify and reverse engineer alien craft? 920 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 8: Yes or no? 921 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 3: Yes? 922 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 4: Does the US government have any reverse Okay? 923 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 8: When I say that. 924 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 4: Question about retrieval programs, do any US contractors have the same? 925 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,799 Speaker 10: I would prefer to address on a closed session, ma'am. 926 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 1: Okay. 927 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 4: In your book, you mentioned government employees who've been injured 928 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,840 Speaker 4: by UAPs, placed on leave and receiving government compensation for 929 00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:52,560 Speaker 4: their injuries. 930 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 3: Is that correct? 931 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 1: That is correct? How can the. 932 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 4: Government deny we have recovered craft if they're paying people 933 00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:01,239 Speaker 4: because they've been injured by a man? 934 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,640 Speaker 10: That's a great question. That's why I think we're here again, 935 00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 10: because I've seen the documentation by the US government for 936 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 10: several of these individuals who have sustained injuries as a 937 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:12,719 Speaker 10: result of a UAP incident. 938 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 1: Brian, If there's a spaceship out there and I can't 939 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 1: fly in it because people aren't telling me about it, again, 940 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,360 Speaker 1: going to be really pissed. What about this? 941 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,320 Speaker 3: They look like a prius. That's how they were designed. 942 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 1: What if what if all evs were reverse engineered from aliens? 943 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,439 Speaker 1: Like somehow these aliens were going, I mean that would 944 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,279 Speaker 1: be that would never mind? 945 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:36,720 Speaker 3: Is Elon Musk an alien? 946 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: Sometimes they do half expect a little robot alien in 947 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: his chest like everything. 948 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,960 Speaker 3: Okay, so let's get into what we know, and then 949 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 3: we can kind of engage in conjecture. So I can 950 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 3: tell you from personal experience that, yes, the US government 951 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 3: does have a variety of teams within the Pentagon and 952 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 3: other places to go around the world and they find 953 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,920 Speaker 3: or buy a different kind of well, all sorts of 954 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 3: different interesting things that we don't necessarily understand or we 955 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,759 Speaker 3: haven't ever produced. That would include aircraft. Now, once you 956 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 3: get that, of course, there is a natural desire to 957 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 3: understand more about it and who created it and its 958 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,360 Speaker 3: capabilities and capacities. Most of the time, the vast majority 959 00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 3: cases these are foreign government sort of secret programs that 960 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:25,120 Speaker 3: they are trying to master different kinds of technology. So 961 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 3: no big surprise there, I don't think, and I think 962 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 3: that that's actually quite important. We need to know what 963 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,319 Speaker 3: the Chinese and the Russians are working on in terms 964 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 3: of their air force or navy or what have you. 965 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 3: So that's good, we are doing that great. Now there 966 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 3: are in that process in time that these teams collect 967 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 3: things that seem to be very confusing. That is to 968 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 3: say that when you look at either the propulsion systems 969 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,840 Speaker 3: or the aircraft's themselves, or if that's it's an aircraft, 970 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:57,919 Speaker 3: whatever it might be, if we understand how it would work, 971 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 3: it defies our current understanding of physics, so it can 972 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 3: turn in a way that it would destroy human body 973 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 3: in terms of how asked would go or how quickly 974 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,440 Speaker 3: it would turn. So those kinds of things are very 975 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 3: very head scratching. So then the question becomes, have the 976 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 3: Chinese of the Russians especially come up with some sort 977 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 3: of a new set of physics in much of the 978 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 3: way that we went from Newtonian physics to the Einstein 979 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 3: you know, understanding of say quantum mechanics. Have they advanced 980 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 3: to a point where they can start to create technology 981 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,719 Speaker 3: that can outdo what we do based on our understanding 982 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:35,239 Speaker 3: of physics. And that's really important because it would be 983 00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,360 Speaker 3: the equivalent of as I was mentioned I think to 984 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,960 Speaker 3: you earlier offline, like if we were trying to row 985 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,240 Speaker 3: across the Atlantic coat in a canoe and then suddenly, 986 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,600 Speaker 3: you know, Tom Cruise is is F sixteen, you know, 987 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 3: blast and with music. That's a fundamental difference in terms 988 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 3: of how we fight battles and win wars. And whoever 989 00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:56,360 Speaker 3: would have that technology would potentially dominate all of humanity 990 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 3: and the entirety of the Earth. So that is why 991 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 3: this matters beyond if it's a UFO of outside of 992 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 3: the Solar System or etc. So that's why it's relevant, 993 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 3: That's why it's important. That's why we need to declassify 994 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:10,360 Speaker 3: as much as we can. That's why we need to 995 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:13,240 Speaker 3: have a president and a Pentagon PIC and a CIA 996 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:15,600 Speaker 3: chief that are honest about this and can talk to 997 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 3: us about what we know and what we don't. Now 998 00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 3: we get to the final issue of is it possible 999 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 3: that the stuff that we have found that defies our 1000 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 3: understanding the physics, is that coming from China or Russia 1001 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 3: or somewhere else Potentially beyond the Solar System, outside of 1002 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 3: even the Milky Way galaxy, somewhere else in the universe. 1003 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 3: That kind of technology that would have to change what 1004 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 3: we understand about the speed of light and about how 1005 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 3: to pass through spacetime. I don't think that the Chinese 1006 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 3: and the Russians have that kind of knowledge. I don't 1007 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 3: think that humans have possessed that yet. Artificial intelligence actually 1008 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 3: might get us there by the way it can think 1009 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 3: a thousand times faster than we can. Quantum mechanics might 1010 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 3: be able to get us there. So if we have 1011 00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,359 Speaker 3: that kind of knowledge that we've picked up to these 1012 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:01,760 Speaker 3: teams at the to GONE or other places like DARPA 1013 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 3: or the CIA, then we need to really open up 1014 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,480 Speaker 3: that possibility to say, you know, it may be an 1015 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,760 Speaker 3: outside entity that has somehow mastered this kind of physics. 1016 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 3: And if so, are they watching this just to understand 1017 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:14,919 Speaker 3: like we're it's some sort of Petri dish and they're 1018 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 3: watching us. I think that we have to be open 1019 00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 3: to that possibility because over time, what we've seen through 1020 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,799 Speaker 3: physics is we've grown and learned and things that seemed impossible, 1021 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 3: like quantum mechanics, actually are real. Einstein called it spooky 1022 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 3: action at a distance. He didn't think it was real 1023 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 3: at first. Well, now we know it's true, this idea 1024 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:34,040 Speaker 3: of quantum mechanics. So that's why I come down on this. 1025 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,960 Speaker 3: I think that most UAPs or UFOs are probably just 1026 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:41,440 Speaker 3: stuff that either humans have mistakenly believed as something fancy 1027 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 3: and it's not, or it is but it comes from 1028 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 3: Russia or China, or maybe god forbid, they have this 1029 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:50,600 Speaker 3: advanced set of understanding of physics, or maybe we're not alone, 1030 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 3: that is, in terms of humanity. And this guy is 1031 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:56,839 Speaker 3: telling you that the Pentagon has biologics that are non 1032 00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 3: human from outside of this galaxy, Well, and we should 1033 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 3: probably talk about that. In my view, there's no reason 1034 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 3: to classify that if we know that's true. What we're 1035 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,040 Speaker 3: going to have to make sure that we do is 1036 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 3: block the Russians and the Chinese from trying to understand 1037 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,719 Speaker 3: more about that program because they might not be reasonable 1038 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,279 Speaker 3: or thoughtful with the resulting information. Right, So, if we've 1039 00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:18,400 Speaker 3: got it in Nevada somewhere, the Chinese are going to 1040 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,440 Speaker 3: start sending people and drones and you know, hacking and 1041 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 3: entities to try to get that information. That's why it's 1042 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 3: bad and that's why you would want to make sure 1043 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,560 Speaker 3: it's close hold. But I think that there's a metal 1044 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:29,880 Speaker 3: ground here, So I think that that's what we should 1045 00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 3: do if I were to advise the President, who, by 1046 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 3: the way, does not necessarily believe in UFOs. He's on 1047 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:36,440 Speaker 3: the record saying that. But I think that there's a 1048 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 3: thoughtful conversation that we need to have about this technology, 1049 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:40,799 Speaker 3: because it really is a big deal. 1050 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 1: Damn man, how do you know all this stuff? I mean, 1051 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 1: it's just wizy. 1052 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 3: It's all that online university stuff, you know, just a 1053 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 3: Wikipedia mostly Wikipedia. 1054 00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,360 Speaker 1: All right, tell everybody where they can find you. 1055 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. I have a daily podcast. It is 1056 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 3: called The Right Report like the Right Brothers w RIGHD 1057 00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 3: Monday through Friday, no later than five am EASTERNS. When 1058 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 3: you come out with the daily episodes, I take people 1059 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 3: around the country and the world, and these are the 1060 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,600 Speaker 3: kinds of things we talk about. You bring out the 1061 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 3: more saucy and spicy version of me, which I love 1062 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 3: and appreciate. So it's about twenty five minutes every day. 1063 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 3: You can find it on all major podcast platforms if 1064 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,200 Speaker 3: you want the sourcing for this, which, by the way, 1065 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:22,759 Speaker 3: you're like, how do you know all this? I could 1066 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,239 Speaker 3: be making it up. That's possible. That's why on Writreport 1067 00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,359 Speaker 3: dot substack dot com six bucks a month, you can 1068 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 3: download the daily transcripts, click on all the hyperlinks where 1069 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,440 Speaker 3: you can find the facts in the data. And then 1070 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 3: when I talk about my analysis opinion, I make that 1071 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,120 Speaker 3: very clear on the show that I'm pivoting to that 1072 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 3: people can take a leave that what they'd like. But 1073 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:40,560 Speaker 3: there you go, that's where you can find me. 1074 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:42,840 Speaker 1: So I have one more favor to ask of you. 1075 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: Will you say hi to g I Jenny and demand. 1076 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 3: GI Jenny in demanded? Where's Demanda? 1077 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 1: We have live interaction on the show yet and you're 1078 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: very popular and they just want. 1079 00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,799 Speaker 3: You to say, Hia, are they in? Did they say 1080 00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:01,360 Speaker 3: what they're in? 1081 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: Well? I think Demanda's in Pittsburgh. I'm not sure where 1082 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 1: g Jenny is. 1083 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 3: Well, okay, I did. 1084 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 1: I didn't. 1085 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:10,400 Speaker 3: I've never heard of Demanda. I've never I thought that 1086 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 3: was like. 1087 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: The Rumble their rumble user's name, their user names. 1088 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 3: Oh okay, see I'm not I don't know everything immediately 1089 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 3: at the globe. 1090 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:21,319 Speaker 1: Yeah no, this is why. 1091 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 3: So let me tell you something I do with my listeners, 1092 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 3: So g I Jane, and then who was the other one? 1093 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: G I Jenny? And then Jamanda. 1094 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 3: Demanded okay, so look for those two folks. I love 1095 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:34,080 Speaker 3: learning more about where people are from. So what my 1096 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,560 Speaker 3: listeners will write in or I get somebody on substack, 1097 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 3: immediately go to what their town is, because there are 1098 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,719 Speaker 3: so many cool places in this country and the world, 1099 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:43,800 Speaker 3: and I love geeking out. I love going on like 1100 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,239 Speaker 3: Google Maps and like checking out like I don't need 1101 00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:48,479 Speaker 3: their address, I don't need to, Like I see your home, 1102 00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:52,000 Speaker 3: that's creepy. I just want to see you like you're downtown. 1103 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:55,720 Speaker 3: So awesome. Thank you, honestly to all of your listeners 1104 00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 3: and folks who are watching. What an awesome audience you have, 1105 00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:00,479 Speaker 3: a few of them have trickled over to my side, 1106 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,839 Speaker 3: and they're such great people. You have an amazing group 1107 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 3: of people who listen to you and watch you, so 1108 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 3: God bless you and everybody who's listening and watching right now. GI. 1109 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:13,360 Speaker 1: What was the last name? Jenny, Jenny Lobbya And what 1110 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 1: is it again? Demanda? 1111 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 3: Demanda Demanda. Yes, that's a tricky for my mouth to say, Demanda. 1112 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 3: We forget another name. No, I'm just kidding. 1113 00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 1: We love you. 1114 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 3: Keep the name and give this guy more money. Champarnell, 1115 00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 3: he's America sweetheart. For God's sake, give him hounitter box immediately. 1116 00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 1: Thanks, Brian. I'll talk to you so man next week. 1117 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 1: Maybe all right, take care, have a great weekend. All right. 1118 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 1: That's my buddy, Brian Dean Wright. He is Seriously, we 1119 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: love having him. One of the smartest guys in the business. 1120 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,320 Speaker 1: We're grateful that he gives us a little bit of 1121 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: his time. Folks, do not forget to smash that like button, 1122 00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 1: that little green thumb beneath the video. Smash it before 1123 00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: we pop smoke and get out of here. I want 1124 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,840 Speaker 1: you all to have an amazing weekend. We're stacking up 1125 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 1: the w's. We're saving this country. None of it would 1126 00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 1: be possible without you. Great things are coming, so enjoy 1127 00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:07,240 Speaker 1: your weekend.
