We will tell you what 37 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 4: is the truth? And that short what would you call that? 38 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a poem. 39 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 4: That's a poem, right, thanks Tanner? 40 00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 3: Did you write that? 41 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 4: No, that's that's a guess. 42 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 3: I was asking that art in the chat. 43 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 4: And I captured that, and I thought, wow, that just 44 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 4: don't worry about lies, do not seek the proof. We 45 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 4: will tell you what is the truth, and that's the 46 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 4: information war, and that's where we sit today. I'll give 47 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 4: you a quick experience that I just had several podcasts 48 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 4: a goal. I commented that Senator Tim Shehey from Montana 49 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 4: was the recipient of a very large contribution from APAK, 50 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 4: the American Israel Political Action Committee, And I keep my 51 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 4: notes and nice greenshot stuff, because hey, that's just what 52 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 4: we do. And I'll look back the next day because 53 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 4: I thought, man, that's a lot of money for a 54 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 4: first timer. And I look back to the exact same place. 55 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 4: This was after the podcast had posted, and APAC was 56 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 4: still a contributor, but it was for a different number. 57 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,839 Speaker 4: And I thought to myself, how can the same website 58 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 4: change in three days from when I wrote the script 59 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 4: to the day after I presented the podcast. And I 60 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 4: started thinking about digital information, and you know, I said, well, 61 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 4: maybe I should go to the FEC. Now I don't 62 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 4: have researchers, so there's only so much time I have to, 63 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 4: you know, check my facts and double check. And then 64 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 4: I started thinking, well, how do I know? I mean, 65 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 4: how do I know which number is correct? Or maybe 66 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 4: neither number is correct, or maybe the FEC wrote website 67 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 4: is not correct because let's just remember that's a government website. 68 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 4: Oh I'm supposed to trust that, right, Like remember the 69 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 4: main the Gulf of Tonkin incident, weapons of mass destruction, 70 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 4: and maybe even onto this drama about the nuclear program 71 00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 4: in Iran. I mean, we're we're stuck with a situation 72 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 4: where we have to consider the grounds in nature of knowledge. 73 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 4: We're living in a new age, and it's my belief 74 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 4: this is an idea that I've had recently that when 75 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 4: we can't rely on information that we're getting digitally, because 76 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 4: we're awash with facts. There's facts everywhere. Now, a fact 77 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 4: has to be organized, a system of facts have to 78 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 4: be organized become knowledge, and for knowledge to be meaningfully applied, 79 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 4: it has to become part of a wisdom. And when 80 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: you get this tremendous I guess it's sensory overload of facts. 81 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 4: Just looking at my ax, you can just go through 82 00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 4: one one sit down for fifteen minutes and get ten 83 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 4: different opinions of alleged facts about the same issue. And 84 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 4: I think this is part of the deal. I mean, 85 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 4: it's just going to get people into the entertainment mode. 86 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 4: It's going to get them to withdraw because there's nothing 87 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 4: we can really stand on in this information age, and 88 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 4: that we're right back to where we started. We started 89 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 4: out before there was information, it was just what we 90 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 4: could develop on our own. And then we've gone through 91 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 4: this long period and now we're at the peak of 92 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 4: this kind of digital information technology and what's where we at. 93 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 4: We're right back where we started. The only thing I 94 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 4: feel I can rely on is what I can discern. 95 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 4: I mean, you're looking at me and I'm talking to you, 96 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 4: and you can look at me, and I hope you 97 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 4: can get a sense if I'm misled or if I'm lying, 98 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 4: and there's a difference. I mean, I can pick up 99 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 4: some facts online and present them and they're wrong, and 100 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 4: it's not because I'm lying, it's because I'm reproducing a lie, 101 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 4: and I'm going to have to guard against that very carefully. 102 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 4: I don't want to do that. I want to try 103 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 4: to share with you information that I believe is true 104 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 4: and correct, and of course that's going to narrow the 105 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 4: scope of what I can present. I guess if you 106 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 4: want to go to tyre get dot com buy lots 107 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 4: of tires, go to the store. Maybe one day we 108 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 4: can have a staff of ten researchers you know, and 109 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 4: this is why we have tied get. I mean we 110 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 4: have tied get because we have to fund the operation. 111 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 4: And we have a merry band here of valiant warriors 112 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 4: trying to you know, make some progress with this information. 113 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 4: But there's only so much we can do with the 114 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 4: resources we have. So if you do need tires, go 115 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 4: to tire Get by them. Spread the word go to 116 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 4: the store, because that that purchase that's going to fund 117 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 4: the expansion of what we're doing here at Free People Radio. 118 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 4: And when we are in a moment, in my opinion, 119 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 4: were the nature of knowledge? The grounds of knowledge? Man? 120 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 4: It's I mean, this is a philosophical discipline, right, epistemology. 121 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 4: What is a fact? What is knowledge? Well, I'm going 122 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 4: to tell you the only thing I know for sure 123 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 4: right now. I hate to say this, but it's what 124 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 4: I can share with you directly. I ask people all 125 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 4: the time when they contact me. I just did this 126 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 4: with some people this past week and I said, do 127 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 4: you live in the Twin Cities? Can we get together 128 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 4: and sit face to face? And this is the point. 129 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 4: We have this digital medium for building this political action community, 130 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 4: which is fantastic. Why are we doing this? We're doing 131 00:08:54,240 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 4: this because we want to bring about change in our society, 132 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 4: in our culture, because I'm going to tell you my opinion. 133 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 4: My opinion is our culture is very sick. Our culture 134 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 4: is sick because we're spending two trillion dollars a year 135 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 4: on the military and two trillion dollars a year on 136 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 4: the medical. And when you spend two trillion dollars a 137 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 4: year on your military, you're always going to be at war, 138 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 4: and we are. And when you spend two trillion dollars 139 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 4: a year on managing disease, everyone's always going to be sick. 140 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 4: So to change, not everyone cognitive distortion, but sickness is 141 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 4: going to be very prevalent when we spend this kind 142 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 4: of money. And I want to see this change. This 143 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 4: is a cultural change. We're believing things and this goes 144 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 4: into things we're going to talk about and just a 145 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 4: little later tonight, about all of these national security matters 146 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 4: that involve President Trump and President Obama because we're in 147 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 4: Spooksville and it's so easy to go down the rabbit 148 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 4: hole of believing things that aren't true. And this goes 149 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 4: back to the idea of religion or of faith, because 150 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 4: what's true, Well, this gets into personal. It gets into 151 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 4: the personal, and I want everyone to understand that when 152 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 4: we live in this kind of a digital information age, 153 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 4: we have to be real in our personal lives to 154 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 4: offset that unreality. It's just unreal. We're living in a 155 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 4: unreal environment. It's not the natural way. We're moving away 156 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 4: and there are people that are advocating to move away 157 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 4: from the natural way as if that's an improvement, and 158 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 4: it's not, in my opinion. So politically, politically, what I'm 159 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 4: urging all of us to do is to meet each other, 160 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 4: to form real communities of real people that meet, that share, 161 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 4: that strive together, that organize our communities face to face, 162 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 4: person to person. When we do that, we're engaging in 163 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 4: American politics. We're engaging in community organizing. We are balancing 164 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 4: the digital with the reel. And there's nothing wrong with 165 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 4: the digital if we maintain the reel. There's nothing wrong 166 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 4: with science if we maintain some awareness of a world 167 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 4: we don't understand. And I want to read something to 168 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 4: you that's very meaningful to me. And I'm struggling and 169 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 4: striving with this and I'm going to comment on it 170 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:48,719 Speaker 4: after I'm done reading it. He who dwells in the 171 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 4: secret place of the Most High, shall abide under the 172 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 4: shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, 173 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 4: he is my refuge and my fortress, my God. In 174 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 4: him I will trust. Surely he shall deliver you from 175 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 4: the snare of the fowler, and from the perilous pestilence. 176 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 4: He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his 177 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 4: wings you shall take refuge. His truth shall be your 178 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 4: shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of the 179 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 4: terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, 180 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 4: nor of the pestilence that walks in the darkness, nor 181 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 4: of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand 182 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 4: may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your 183 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 4: right hand, but it shall not come near you. Only 184 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 4: with your eyes shall you look and see the reward 185 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 4: of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord, who 186 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 4: is my refuge, even the most High, your dwelling place, 187 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 4: no evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come 188 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 4: near your dwelling. For He shall give his angels charge 189 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 4: over you, to keep you in all your ways. In 190 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 4: their hands, they shall bear you up. Lest you dash 191 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 4: your foot against the stone. You shall tread upon the 192 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 4: lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent, 193 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 4: you shall trample underfoot. Because he has set his love 194 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 4: upon me. Therefore I will deliver him. I will set 195 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 4: him on high because he has known my name. He 196 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 4: shall call upon me, and I will answer him. I 197 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 4: will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him 198 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 4: and honor him with long life. I will satisfy him 199 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 4: and show him my salvation. Well, that's Psalm ninety one, 200 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 4: and I want to just talk about one part of it, 201 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 4: because when we talk about recovering the natural way, I 202 00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 4: recognize that people don't get any training in it. We're 203 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 4: not trained in the natural way. And when this Psalm 204 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 4: ninety one, when the Tanakh, when King David talks about 205 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 4: the secret place, he who dwells in the secret place 206 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 4: of the most High, guess where that is. That's the 207 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 4: place where you're not sining or I'm not sinning. Because 208 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 4: sin is separation. When we sin, we sin, and it 209 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 4: separates us man from man, man from woman, and man 210 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 4: and woman from God. So the game or the goal, 211 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 4: I think, and I want to share with you, and 212 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 4: what I'm working on, is to give up the addiction 213 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 4: to sin. And then where are you going to find yourself? Well, aha, 214 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 4: if you're not separated from that world, you're automatically in it. 215 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 4: And that's the great choice we have to make. And 216 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 4: that's the great challenge in front of us. And that's 217 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 4: the contratempt or the counterbalance to this digital world that 218 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 4: we've entered, which really makes sin oh so very easy. 219 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 4: And we have to work against this. I have to 220 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 4: work against it. Many of us have to. We all 221 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 4: sit in our own ways and we need to understand 222 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 4: the idea of sin and recognize, uh, what has cost 223 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 4: me and I don't want to pay that price anymore. 224 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 4: I say that as a person born Jewish. I know 225 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 4: the Christian brothers and sisters are going to have a 226 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 4: comment on my words there, but hey, we're all in 227 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 4: different places, and I view this as many spokes all 228 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 4: heading to the same hub. Could you please play this 229 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 4: clip with Steve Manning opining about the deep state? 230 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 5: Tanner, we have to see this to the end. You know, 231 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 5: I'm a fighter, and this fight is the fight before us. 232 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 5: Because we could do all the tax cuts in the world, 233 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 5: we could close the border for a while, we could 234 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 5: do all these amazing things which President Trump is doing. 235 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 5: He's absolutely correct. He's on a roll. He's the hottest 236 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 5: any president's ever been. 237 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 4: We're doing it. 238 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 5: However, if we don't get into what really tries to 239 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 5: control the country, the deep state, and take it apart. 240 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 5: And by the way, if we got rid of I 241 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 5: don't know, one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand billets 242 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 5: and people, we'd have control this And I mean cut 243 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 5: the FBI by half, cut the CIA by half, cut 244 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 5: three quarters of the State Department, right, cut the Defense 245 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 5: Department by a third, cut cut cut every department, and 246 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 5: start cutting them in half. 247 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 4: This is the moment that we the people, if we 248 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 4: actually organize in our communities and start to go into 249 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 4: the Republican Party and make it about the philosophy of republicanism, 250 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 4: clip out these deep state rhinos that are, you know, 251 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 4: obstructing this process in their own kind of tricky ways, 252 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 4: just waiting for President Trump to become a lame duck. 253 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 4: If we do this work, if we cut, cut, cut, 254 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 4: we get two things. Now, what are we talking about cutting. 255 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 4: We're talking about cutting hundreds of thousands of elite educated 256 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 4: apparatics in the government. In the government apparatus. These people 257 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 4: are educated at Harvard, Yale, and Stanford, and you know 258 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 4: Tufts and John Hopkins, and they have advanced degrees, and 259 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 4: they get hired, and they are a culturated into the 260 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 4: post World War two democrat liberal order, the secular order, 261 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 4: a non religious order that stands on the scientific method, 262 00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 4: that stands on technology, and that is rapidly accelerating us 263 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 4: into a world that's, in my opinion, anti human. We're 264 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 4: leaving behind hundreds of thousands of years of human experience 265 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 4: as if we're going to go off and do something better, 266 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 4: and we never got it right in the first place. 267 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 4: So what they're saying is a bunch of folks that 268 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 4: don't have it right are going to go create a 269 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 4: utopia based on them not having it right in the 270 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 4: first place. It's like building your house on sand. This 271 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 4: was actually, you know, predicted, and this has happened in 272 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 4: the past, and people do this from time to time 273 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 4: all the time out of our arrogance and because we 274 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 4: don't as a people see the unseen world. So what 275 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 4: Bannon is talking about is reducing, in a very kind 276 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 4: of broad sword way, the number of people that are 277 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 4: in government that have the same worldview and reproduce this secular, 278 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,679 Speaker 4: humanist way of thinking about the United States of America, 279 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 4: the Republic of the United States of America. In addition 280 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 4: to reducing this philosophical hold on the lives and minds 281 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 4: of the people, man, this is a real helpful thing 282 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 4: for the budget. When you start talking about cutting the 283 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 4: military budget by a third, oh, you're talking about six 284 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:26,880 Speaker 4: hundred billion dollars of realized savings. To accomplish this, it's 285 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 4: going to have to come from us. We don't have 286 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 4: a Congress that would even consider such things right now, 287 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,479 Speaker 4: We the people, We the people are hanging over a cliff. 288 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 4: These folks are going to come back on us. And 289 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 4: the only way this is going to carry through to 290 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 4: a change in our culture is if we organize politically. 291 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 4: And I want to just share an idea that has 292 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 4: struck me of late, that we had the republican era 293 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 4: of this country from seventeen seventy six until let's say 294 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 4: about nineteen thirteen, and then we had the progressive era, 295 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 4: which became the post of World War Two democrat liberal order. 296 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 4: So we've had two paradigms in the history of this country. 297 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 4: But we've entered a third paradigm, which is the information age, 298 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 4: and it is my belief that this polarity between the 299 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 4: Republican order and the Democrat order is just being manipulated 300 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 4: by the purveyors of the information age so that they 301 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 4: can get their philosophy entrenched while we fight it out. No, no, no, 302 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 4: we have to understand. I think, if we're human beings, 303 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 4: either from the Democrat side of the Republican side, and 304 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 4: I mean philosophically, that we are now facing a common challenge, 305 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 4: and that's to maintain a wellbeing society, a well being 306 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 4: society of peace and prosperity for the American citizens the quicker. 307 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 4: We recognize that we have a common challenge, and we 308 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 4: band together those of us who can see it. We're 309 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 4: going to get out of this trap of division and 310 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 4: fine unity and push back against the philosophy that is 311 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 4: about a completely new kind of scientific reality that really 312 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 4: doesn't have space for he who dwells in the secret 313 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 4: place of the most High. Could you please play number two? 314 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 6: This week, President Trump issued a warning to Russia to 315 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,959 Speaker 6: quote reach a peace deal with Ukraine within fifty days 316 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,959 Speaker 6: or see severe tariffs. Love it on the country and 317 00:21:56,040 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 6: all the nations that support it. That is getting bipart 318 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 6: is in support, including from our next guest. Democratic Senator 319 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 6: Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut is working with his Republican colleagues 320 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 6: on a strong sanctions package against Russia, and he called 321 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 6: the president's announcement to quote breakthrough step. And Senator Blumenthal 322 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 6: joins us. Now he's a member of the Homeland Security, 323 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 6: Armed Services, and Judiciary committees. It's good to have you 324 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 6: back on the show. Tell us about this package and 325 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 6: how far it goes. 326 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: The President's shift Mika is really a milestone change in 327 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: his stance on Ukraine. As you well know, he has 328 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: really operated as a sort of confidant and admirer of 329 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin, and the Russian leader has played him and 330 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: made a fool of our country as well as the 331 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: president I states. And now this week he has ed 332 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: that he's going to sell arms to NATO, which then 333 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: would transfer them to Ukraine. And equally important, if you're 334 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: know altimatum fifty days, there has to be a deal 335 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: to end the war or he will impose one hundred 336 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: percent sanctions, including secondary sanctions on anybody buying the Russian 337 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 1: oil and gas, which mirrors the sanctions bill that Senator 338 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: Graham and I have been working on for two years. 339 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: It would impose five hundred percent sanctions on India, China, Brazil, 340 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: who are the major purchasers of oiler gas, not to 341 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: raise revenue for the United States, not to reshore manufacturing, 342 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: which are typically the reasons for these kinds of tariffs. 343 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 1: But they are truly sanctions to change behavior and bring 344 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: Putin to the table in a serious way. 345 00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 4: Well, that is neo con part excellence. A Senator Richard 346 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 4: Bloomenthal of Connecticut who has teamed up over the last 347 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 4: couple of years with Lindsey Graham, the Republican doppelganger of Bloomenthal. 348 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 4: They're the same person, only a little different from South Carolina. 349 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 4: They've been teamed up to try to be sure that 350 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 4: Putin is defeated. They want to beat the Russians, they 351 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 4: want to engage in this great power struggle. And you 352 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 4: know when Senator Bloomenthal goes on Morning Joe on MSNBC 353 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 4: and sings the praises of President Trump, who he's indicated 354 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 4: and has finally seen the light, we see that there 355 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 4: is a sea change here. Well here's the sea change, 356 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 4: President Trump. President Trump's going for it. When they talk 357 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 4: about these secondary sanctions. The buyers of Russian oil, the 358 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 4: primary buyers that would be India and China, which are 359 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 4: two major trading partners of the United States, would be 360 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 4: sanctioned if they continue to buy that Russian or on 361 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 4: that Russian oil when it is purchased by those two 362 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 4: great countries. That stabilizes the economy of Russia. It allows 363 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:17,479 Speaker 4: Russia to continue this war in the Ukraine. And you know, 364 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 4: President Trump, I still believe that he wants to bring 365 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 4: about peace and prosperity for the American people, and he's 366 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 4: going for it. I mean, you know, I've been around 367 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 4: quite a few presidents now, and I've never seen any 368 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 4: administration in my lifetime that has done more to change 369 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:40,439 Speaker 4: the nature of our politics and of our culture, of 370 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 4: our society, of our country, of the entire world in 371 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 4: just a few short bunths than what President Trump is 372 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 4: trying to do since he's been elected. The last time 373 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 4: I think we've had a change like this was the 374 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 4: Woodrow Wilson administration, which was in the early nineteen hundreds. 375 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 4: And you could say, and I think would be reasonable 376 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 4: to say that the Wilson administration ushered in the progressive era, 377 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 4: which culminated in the post World War Two Democrat liberal order. 378 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 4: Under the Wilson presidency, the income tax was started, Senators 379 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 4: were directly elected instead of being appointed. For example. Wilson 380 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 4: championed the liberation and the suffrage of women. For example, 381 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 4: he supported prohibition. There was many things that Wilson supported 382 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 4: which dramatically changed the culture, not the least of which 383 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 4: is the Federal Reserve was established during the Wilson administration, 384 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 4: so that Wilston administration really ushered in the era of 385 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 4: the Democrat liberal order, which President Trump is overthrowing. This 386 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 4: Trump administration is systematically overthrowing that liberal order, and he's 387 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 4: going for it. He's trying to bring about a piece Well, 388 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 4: I don't know what President Trump's going to do in 389 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 4: fifty days, and I certainly cannot predict what Russia and India. 390 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 4: I mean, what China and India are going to do 391 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:21,959 Speaker 4: in response to the threatening of secondary sanctions. We're going 392 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 4: to find out in fifty days. And you know, there's 393 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,120 Speaker 4: a lot going on, and all the things that are 394 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:32,959 Speaker 4: going on, that's probably the biggest buried lead because this 395 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 4: was an unnecessary, unforced move by President Trump. He's put 396 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 4: the gauntlet down, and in fifty days he's either going 397 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 4: to impose this, come up with some kind of equivocation, 398 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 4: or these two countries are going to back off. I'm 399 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 4: buying Russian oil, which is going to drive the Russians 400 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 4: to the negotiating table, and it ties into so many 401 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 4: other issues like the health, for example, of the Chinese economy. 402 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 4: So President Trump is wielding the power of America's financial might, 403 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 4: the power of our markets, to bring about global change, 404 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 4: and he's taken a lot of risks. I remember when 405 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 4: President Reagan said that the Soviet Union was the Evil Empire, 406 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 4: and that scared me because I recognized that if it 407 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 4: didn't go down the way President Reagan said it was 408 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 4: going to go down, you know, there could be a 409 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 4: nuclear war. Well this time, President Trump, in a very 410 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 4: reagan asque kind of a way, is threatening kind of 411 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 4: an economic armageddon, not just for India and China, but 412 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 4: also for the United States of America. This would cause 413 00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 4: a complete breakdown of world trade and international relations. If 414 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 4: India and China tell President Trump the answer is no, 415 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 4: we're going to continue to purchase this Russian oil. Let's 416 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 4: remember that the bricks bricks, right, the bricks Brazil, Russia, India, China, 417 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 4: South Africa. That is a strong political union amongst those countries, 418 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 4: meant to offset the power of what Putin calls the 419 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 4: Anglo Saxon Empire. What President Trump is doing is he's 420 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 4: seeking to sow a division in that alliance. And I'm 421 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 4: gonna hope he's doing it to bring about peace. Of course, 422 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 4: it may not come out that way. He's trying to 423 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 4: thread a needle here. President Trump also resumed arm shipments 424 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 4: to the Ukrainians, which has been met with a lot 425 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 4: of resistance on the part of the Mega Movem. He 426 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 4: has been very clear he's not going to give the 427 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 4: Ukrainians long range missiles, and he has told the Ukrainians 428 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 4: no more striking deep inside of Russia, which is a 429 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 4: big change from what was going on under the Biden administration. 430 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 4: So President Trump is reality, he has declared. President Trump 431 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 4: has declared them on nobody's side. That's a quote. Really, 432 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 4: if we're supplying weapons to the Ukrainians, we're obviously tilted 433 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 4: towards the Ukrainian side. However, if you listen to Sergey Lavrov, 434 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 4: who represents the foreign policy interests of the Russian Federation, 435 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 4: there seems to be something going on, Tanner, could you 436 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 4: please play number three? 437 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 7: U shall do not nego shape. It's so on territory. 438 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 7: President Trump understands this. I mentioned already Kaya Kala Sandro 439 00:30:55,680 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 7: Sulivanderlin who said any deal must make sure that Ukraine 440 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 7: is stronger and that Ukraine is on top of rush. Look, 441 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 7: do we need negotiators who believe in this kind of 442 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 7: logic and who don't want to look for honest balance 443 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 7: of interest? The Trump administration is interested in searching for 444 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 7: a balance of interest. They sincerely want to understand better 445 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 7: the Russian position, and they're getting this understanding, and we 446 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 7: understand better the American position through negotiations and meetings and discussions. 447 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 7: We only target military goals or civilian sites used by 448 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 7: the military. President put In expresses for so many times. 449 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:50,719 Speaker 4: So this clip came up just after President Trump spoke 450 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:56,959 Speaker 4: with Vladimir Putin, and President Trump was very unhappy with 451 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 4: that phone call. He indicated that he made no progress 452 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 4: with Vladimir Putin on bringing this war to an end, 453 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 4: and he was quite unhappy about it. The policy, you turn, 454 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 4: of resupplying Ukraine with more weapons was met, you know 455 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 4: by me, I mean I'd like to see this war 456 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 4: come to an end. I think it's crazy to be 457 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 4: involved in a superpower confrontation of this nature. But President 458 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 4: Trump is doing what he thinks is right to bring 459 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 4: it to an end. And he was very bitter about this. 460 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 4: He spoke bitterly about this conversation he had with Putin, 461 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 4: and then Lavrov came right up and said, hey, we're 462 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 4: listening to the Americans. They're listening to us. So while 463 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 4: President Trump is unhappy about the progress, there's something going 464 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 4: on here. So again, I've been saying this pretty regularly. 465 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 4: There's a lot of things I could say that we're 466 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 4: critical of President Trump, and people are starting to be 467 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 4: critical of President Trump, and I'm critical of a lot 468 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 4: of things that are going on, but we don't have 469 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 4: the punchline. I mean, we don't know how any of 470 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 4: this is going to come out. I am saying, when 471 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 4: you take these kind of risks, boy, things can go 472 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 4: funny in a hurry. On the other hand, if you 473 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 4: don't take a risk, there's no reward. So what President 474 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 4: Trump is doing is he's leveraging the economic power of 475 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 4: the United States, and he is exploiting the weak current 476 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 4: weakness of the Chinese economy in the hopes that well 477 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 4: profits seeking will prevail over the impulse to war, and 478 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 4: we're going to see all that comes out. I don't 479 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 4: think it's a bad bet, but it is a bet. 480 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 4: And while this is going on, there's so many issues. 481 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,719 Speaker 4: You know, we really didn't have a chance to do 482 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 4: much news that matters last week. And I was looking 483 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 4: at the script and I said, boy, I'm just going 484 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 4: to have to put up the stuff for the Ukraine 485 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 4: on Tuesday, because if I try to do the Middle 486 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 4: East stuff, there w no room for anything else tonight. 487 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:28,839 Speaker 4: There's that much foreign policy information that it's going on 488 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 4: every day now because we're in a world war. And 489 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 4: I think it's admirable for the United States of America 490 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 4: for we the people to try to get ourselves out 491 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:42,320 Speaker 4: of these involvements which are not of our own making. 492 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 4: As we've said many times on the podcast, this Ukraine thing, 493 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 4: it came from the British. The China thing, it came 494 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:55,440 Speaker 4: from the British. I, as an America first political activist, 495 00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 4: want my country to extricate itself from these four and 496 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 4: involvements and focus the great resources of our people on 497 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 4: restoring the well being of our citizens, and we're not 498 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 4: going to do it when we're out gallivanting around the 499 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 4: world like a hedgemond, which is a scam and it 500 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 4: does not last. Let's remember everything that has in alpha 501 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 4: has an omega, So why would we careeene to an 502 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 4: endpoint when we can proactively redeploy our resources so that 503 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 4: they benefit our families. It doesn't benefit my family to 504 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 4: have this going on. And what would happen if we 505 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 4: stop being aggressive? We have to put ourselves in the 506 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 4: shoe of the other, of the other person and the antagonist. 507 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 4: And when I talk like this, boy do I get 508 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:53,280 Speaker 4: some nasty posts in response, as if I'm a putin 509 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 4: lover or a g lover. You know I love America. 510 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 4: I know this republic was founded to extricate us from 511 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 4: this great game. Why are we playing it? Well, we 512 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 4: stumbled into it because we were young and dumb. We're 513 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 4: getting older. Now there's a price for this. It is 514 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 4: really willing to pay this price so that we lose 515 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 4: our freedom because empire and freedom cannot coexist. Prosperity in 516 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 4: war cannot coexist. These are problems not of our own making, 517 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 4: and we've inherited them and let's solve them. Let's leave 518 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 4: the world with a chance to move forward. I agree 519 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,439 Speaker 4: we need to try to solve these problems, but let's 520 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 4: not stumble in to some kind of predetermined cataclysm. We 521 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 4: don't have to do that. We can keep our heads 522 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 4: about us, we can think clearly. We don't have to 523 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 4: live an eschatological outcome. That's up to us. We have 524 00:36:52,080 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 4: free will. President Trump is pursuing this immigration policy. We're 525 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 4: going to talk about the big, one, big beautiful bill 526 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 4: in a second, which passed since I saw you last, 527 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 4: which contains I think one hundred and fifty one hundred 528 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 4: and seventy five billion dollars to pursue this anti immigration policy. 529 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 4: And ICE is deporting people all over the country, and 530 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,720 Speaker 4: a lot of people that are here illegally are self 531 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 4: deporting for many reasons. So there's a big outflow of 532 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 4: people that are in this country illegally. Where are they going. 533 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,280 Speaker 4: They're going back to Mexico and Central America. And guess 534 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 4: what's happening. Those countries under tremendous pressure. Mexico in particular, 535 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 4: has got a big population of people returning. They don't 536 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 4: have jobs, they don't have places to live, they don't 537 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,280 Speaker 4: even have food to eat. This is putting tremendous pressure 538 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,840 Speaker 4: on the Mexican government. In other words, if immigration was 539 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 4: so good, why don't the Mexican's light Because they're getting 540 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 4: a real good dose of immigration now. 541 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 3: And I have a silly question. So you're saying the 542 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 3: self deporting, how does how does that work? Do they 543 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 3: just go to the Ice agency and go, hey, man, 544 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 3: I just want to turn myself in. Can you get 545 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:16,720 Speaker 3: me a plane ride to home? 546 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 4: You know, that's a great question. But I think when 547 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 4: you self deport, I think you just get on a 548 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 4: plane and fly home, or you drive home, or you 549 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 4: walk back across the border. I don't think these people 550 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 4: are turning themselves into ice. Maybe they are. Maybe that's 551 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 4: a cheap way to get home. 552 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 3: Maybe it really is just walk up and hey, can 553 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:35,359 Speaker 3: I get a plane ride? I came here. 554 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,760 Speaker 4: We need to ask about that. That's a great question. 555 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 4: I but and again, digital information, it could be fake news. Yeah, 556 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 4: but from what I'm reading, because I do have business 557 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 4: in Mexico and friends in Mexico, Mexico could collapse from this. 558 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 4: It's not a deep and rich country like the United 559 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 4: States of America is, and it's a stratified country, and 560 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 4: it's a country where there's a lot of potential for 561 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 4: radical politics. At the same time that all these people 562 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 4: are going back down there, President Trump is demanding, demanding 563 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 4: that the Mexican government take on the cartels. And so, 564 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 4: you know, President Trump is you know this has change. 565 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 4: You know, these things are not bad. I know the 566 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 4: Mexican citizens that are hard working, you know, law abiding 567 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 4: citizens want these cartels put down. But they're so rung 568 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 4: into the political life of Mexico. This is not going 569 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:45,759 Speaker 4: to happen easily. No different than we have you know, 570 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 4: criminality wound into our politics here in the United States. 571 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,760 Speaker 4: So right south of the border, I mean our country, 572 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 4: our ally Mexico to the south, is feeling the effects 573 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 4: of of these policies. What are we going to do 574 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 4: about this? How are we going to deal with Mexico. 575 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 4: In the Central American countries which allegedly could be fake news, 576 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 4: but from my research, a huge population of people is 577 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 4: going back down there, so much in fact, that there's 578 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 4: about seven hundred thousand American citizens living in Mexico. They 579 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 4: call the ex pats. They're retired there for the most part, 580 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 4: and the Mexican politicians are blaming these Americans. They call 581 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 4: them digital nomads. They're blaming the Americans for causing the 582 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 4: inflation and the social disruption. There's actually been riots threatening 583 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 4: the health and safety of these American citizens living in Mexico. 584 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 3: So they get a dose of the same medicine and 585 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 3: then they complain about the same thing. 586 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:55,720 Speaker 4: Yes, that is hilarious. Call them. It's called make Mexico 587 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,800 Speaker 4: First again. Yes, that's a movement. Now, yes, this is whole. 588 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 3: That is hilarious. Okay, we gotta go deeper on that. 589 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,360 Speaker 3: That is really funny. 590 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 4: Actually, well, that's why we do the Professor Penn podcast 591 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 4: because boy oh boy, you never know what's going on 592 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 4: out there unless you spend your time researching it. And 593 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 4: those are our neighbors to the south, and we need 594 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:21,720 Speaker 4: to have good relationship, a good relationship with Mexico. President 595 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 4: Trump has already signaled that he's going to renegotiate the 596 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 4: United States Mexico Canada Free Trade Agreement with the USMCA 597 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 4: next year. That's going to heap even more pressure on 598 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,800 Speaker 4: the relationship with our neighbors. But President Trump is sticking 599 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 4: to his guns about rebuilding American manufacturing rebuilding American sovereignty, 600 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 4: rebuilding American self sufficiency. And it runs through everything that 601 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 4: we're doing here now politically, and boy is it being opposed. 602 00:41:54,719 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 4: It's being opposed because self sufficiency means self governance. Self 603 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 4: governance means ooh, government's going to shrink because you can't 604 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,439 Speaker 4: have self governance when you have a giant government that's 605 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 4: doing everything for everybody. This is a big change. This 606 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:17,359 Speaker 4: paradigm goes back to nineteen thirteen, to the Woodrow Wilson administration, 607 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 4: the start of income tax, the start of the Federal Reserve. 608 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 4: There's a movement to desertify the Federal Reserve. This is 609 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:32,399 Speaker 4: a period of phenomenal change, a phenomenal moment in American history. 610 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 4: We're all living here together. What are you going to 611 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 4: do about it? What are you willing to do to 612 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 4: save this republic? Are you willing to go join your 613 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 4: local Republican party, track those people down, call them, get 614 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 4: appointed to your board, tell them that you are a 615 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,720 Speaker 4: Republican that wants to elect Republicans, and then go out 616 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 4: and try to convert your friends, your family, your neighbors, 617 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 4: your co workers to the philosophy of republicanism, because that's 618 00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 4: what we got to do. This is about culture, This 619 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 4: is about culture changing. We're in a moment of cultural change. 620 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 4: It can be cultural evolution, it does not have to 621 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 4: be cultural revolution. And when we do this proactively, when 622 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 4: we love one another as we wish to be loved, well, 623 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 4: this could be a new era in American culture and 624 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 4: politics goes right into the economy. President Trump moving ahead, 625 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,920 Speaker 4: This is something I watch very closely because of my 626 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 4: involvement in the tire business. And once again, if you 627 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,280 Speaker 4: have a chance you need tires, your friends, your family, 628 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 4: your neighbors, your co workers, let them know about tireged 629 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 4: dot com.

But because we're in the tire business. We 640 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 4: know what's going on for international trade, and I'm watching 641 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 4: it like a hawk. Because only twenty five percent of 642 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 4: the tires that you use on your personal vehicles are 643 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 4: manufactured in the United States. That means seventy five percent 644 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 4: of the tires are imported. Does that seem right to you? 645 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 4: I just does that seem right to you? That seventy 646 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 4: five percent of the car tires and light truck tires 647 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 4: that you use are imported? How do you feel about that? Tanner? 648 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 3: At first, I never really thought about it too deep. 649 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 3: But it wasn't until I think you had painted it 650 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 3: out for me that if we didn't have tires, how 651 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,879 Speaker 3: had food get anywhere? And especially being in Minnesota, we 652 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 3: live entirely on trucks getting stuff to us. So if 653 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 3: those tires are gone, we're screwed. So we're not really 654 00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 3: we need to be self reliant on that. 655 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 4: Well, let's let's break this down one little bit, just 656 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:05,320 Speaker 4: to refine what you're saying. The tire business has broken 657 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 4: into three segments. Consumer tires, large truck tires that go 658 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 4: on the semis that bring the food from the farm 659 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 4: to the market, and then off the road tires like 660 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:22,320 Speaker 4: your farm, agricultural tractor tires three segments. Okay, now car tires. 661 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 4: I guess if there was some kind of a breakdown 662 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 4: and we couldn't get car tires, we'd find a way 663 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 4: to limp along. You need tires about once every four years, 664 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:36,879 Speaker 4: but your average over the road truck goes through two 665 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,760 Speaker 4: and a half sets of tires a year. That's eighteen 666 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 4: tires times two and a half. That's a lot of rubber. 667 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,720 Speaker 4: You know, on those large trucks, the big truck tires. 668 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 4: Only thirty five percent of those tires are built in 669 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 4: the United States. And boy, if we had a breakdown, 670 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 4: that would be trouble in River City, because you're right, 671 00:45:55,920 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 4: we could not get product from the manufacturer from the 672 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 4: farm to where we could consume it. That's a big problem. 673 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 4: So President Trump is in the process of imposing these 674 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 4: reciprocal tariffs, and there's two reasons for them. One revenue. 675 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 4: Two encouraged domestic manufacturing. Well, we're coming up on another 676 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 4: big change date, August first. President Trump has put a 677 00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 4: line in the sand that these reciprocal tariffs are going 678 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 4: to increase on August first. This past weekend, Commerce Secretary 679 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 4: Howard Lutnik and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessont made the rounds 680 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 4: on the morning talk shows and they reinforced the idea 681 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:45,280 Speaker 4: that August first is the date and people are freaking 682 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 4: out because this again is the start of a new 683 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 4: era for America. Not coincidentally, it was during the Woodrow 684 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 4: Wilson era that the very high tariffs that have been 685 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 4: put in place during winter during the linkedn administration from 686 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 4: eighteen sixty one to eighteen sixty five, very high terrifs. 687 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 4: Because Lincoln was a Republican. A republican Republicans believe in 688 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 4: self sufficiency, self governance, sovereignty. That is the Republican idea. 689 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 4: What does the Democrat believe? One world government, one world economy, 690 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:31,360 Speaker 4: free trade and what is the senequa nine of free trade? Trade, 691 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 4: human beings and guests? Who was the slave traders? It 692 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,960 Speaker 4: was the Democrats? Do we get that? Do you know that? 693 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:39,439 Speaker 4: Is that sunk in yet? Yes? 694 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 3: I do know that. 695 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 4: Did you know it before? The Professor Penn podcastes, I 696 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 4: did you did? 697 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 3: I knew that the Democrats were the party of the KKK. 698 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 4: They were the Party of the South, They were the 699 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 4: party that seceded from the Union. Yeah, isn't that interesting. 700 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 4: It's something that you would not assume. Well, we got it. 701 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 4: That's because of nineteen forty six, after World War Two, 702 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 4: the Republicans got all in on free trade because it 703 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 4: was a Schmrgesborg because everybody in the world other than 704 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 4: our great United States economy, the Russian When I say 705 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:15,240 Speaker 4: everybody this time it is everybody. Britain, France, Germany, Russia, Japan, 706 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 4: and China. All these countries were in ruins from World 707 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 4: War Two. We had the only intact manufacturing base here 708 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 4: in the United States. So both parties got all in 709 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 4: on free trade after World War Two, and it was 710 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 4: an experiment to see if it could bring about peace 711 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:33,879 Speaker 4: and prosperity. And it did for a while, and then 712 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 4: we slipped back into depravity. And now it's time for 713 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 4: a change because it didn't work. And if it's not 714 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 4: gonna work, I mean, if we're not going to have 715 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 4: peace and prosperity, because the price of the scam was, 716 00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 4: of course, our sovereignity. So why would we give up 717 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 4: our sovereignity, our independence, our self governance for a philosophy 718 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,839 Speaker 4: that failed. That wouldn't make any sense. And that's why 719 00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:00,120 Speaker 4: the people have risen up and elected Donald Trump, and 720 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 4: he's bringing about a great change. And it's not Trump, 721 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 4: it's his reflection of the American people. It's about us. 722 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 4: So these tariffs that are supposed to increase on August first, Wow, 723 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,320 Speaker 4: there's some big numbers in there now. A few countries, 724 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 4: for example, like Vietnam. There's been a deal with Vietnam 725 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 4: twenty percent. There's been a deal announced with Indonesia nineteen percent. 726 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 4: There's been a deal announced with the United Kingdom. There 727 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:32,399 Speaker 4: have been some deals. Most of the countries just got 728 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 4: letters in the mail that said, on August first, here's 729 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 4: your rate. Now that doesn't mean those countries couldn't continue 730 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 4: to negotiate, but there's a lot of countries and there's 731 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 4: a lot of negotiations, and if President Trump pulls the 732 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 4: trigger on August first, there's going to be a big 733 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 4: increase in taxation at the border. Now, you will notice 734 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,839 Speaker 4: that in the month of May, the most recent month 735 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:04,840 Speaker 4: we have data on with only a ten percent reciprocal tariff. 736 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,160 Speaker 4: We didn't have to borrow any money because we had 737 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:12,440 Speaker 4: more coming in and went out just at ten percent. 738 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 4: And these rates are going to go way up European 739 00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:21,320 Speaker 4: Union is scheduled to go to thirty percent, Cambodia thirty 740 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:27,920 Speaker 4: six percent, Pakistan I think it's twenty nine percent, Serbia 741 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 4: thirty six percent. I could go on and on and on, 742 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 4: very very high rates. People going to say that's going 743 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 4: to cause inflation, and I keep saying, there's a difference 744 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 4: between inflation and prices, and let me explain it and 745 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:47,320 Speaker 4: share it with you, because this is important. Inflation is 746 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:51,880 Speaker 4: about borrowing money, printing money, and expanding the money supply. 747 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 4: That's what causes inflation. Prices, the reshoring of our manufacturing 748 00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 4: or the taxation at the border of imported product will 749 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,879 Speaker 4: cause a short term spike in inflation. The price will 750 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 4: go up, and then guess what's going to happen. The 751 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 4: market's going to reset and there isn't going to be 752 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 4: any more inflation. Do you get the difference. I'm trying 753 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:19,319 Speaker 4: to share something. It's a distinction that matters. When you 754 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 4: continuously print money and borrow money and increase the m 755 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:28,520 Speaker 4: one money supply, you just inflate the economy. You're inflating 756 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 4: it constantly. Let's think about it. We've borrowed thirty seven 757 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:37,279 Speaker 4: trillion dollars since all about two thousand in bush. Basically, 758 00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:41,719 Speaker 4: what did we do? That's like not real money. That's 759 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:46,360 Speaker 4: borrowed money. It wasn't earned, It wasn't created through hard 760 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 4: work or creativity or efficiency, workplace efficiency. No, no, no, 761 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:57,359 Speaker 4: it was just fiat currency pumped into the system that 762 00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 4: is called put in gas in the bank. It was 763 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:06,399 Speaker 4: inflationary and it will continue to be inflationary as long 764 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:11,320 Speaker 4: as we're borrowing that money. Now, prices go up one time, 765 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:15,240 Speaker 4: we have inflation for one quarter, and then the inflation stops. 766 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 4: It's a difference that matters. So when all these naysayers 767 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:24,360 Speaker 4: are talking about prices and inflation, it is not inflationary. 768 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 4: It's an increase in prices, and then market forces will 769 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:33,320 Speaker 4: impact upon those prices and prices will moderate. For example, 770 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,359 Speaker 4: when you come to tiregate dot com, you can buy 771 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 4: a tire that costs you three hundred and fifty dollars. 772 00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 4: You can and that same size could cost you seventy dollars. 773 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 4: Tanner went through that when he bought tires for his vehicle. Yeah, 774 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 4: great story. 775 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I paid less than four hundred dollars for my cameray, 776 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:54,880 Speaker 3: so I was very happy. 777 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:58,080 Speaker 4: Four tires mounted and balanced it out the door with 778 00:52:58,160 --> 00:52:58,960 Speaker 4: a new valve stem. 779 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:00,440 Speaker 3: And I didn't even have to talk to any of 780 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,239 Speaker 3: the people. I walked in hand of my keys, said 781 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 3: my name, and they went right along. Got back that afternoon. 782 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 4: Perfect for your age, Cohort. 783 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:08,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want to talk to people. 784 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:11,480 Speaker 4: You know, we're gonna have to get you talking to me. 785 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 4: This is a problem with politics, right, we need to 786 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:19,800 Speaker 4: talk one to another. So these these tariffs are alleged 787 00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:22,879 Speaker 4: to start, we're gonna find out now. President Trump has 788 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 4: also announced that members of the bricks that's bi Brazil, Russia, India, China, 789 00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 4: South Africa and all the related countries are going to 790 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:36,520 Speaker 4: get dinged an extra ten percent just for the audacity 791 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 4: of claiming they want to have their own currency. President 792 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,879 Speaker 4: Trump is a g He's not going to let this 793 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,280 Speaker 4: thing get off the ground. And what's going to happen 794 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,399 Speaker 4: is all these associated countries, and there's a lot of them, 795 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 4: for example, Bolivia, Nigeria, Cuba, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam 796 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 4: and Uganda, just for starters, they're all going to look 797 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 4: at this and they're going to say, wait a second, 798 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 4: our economies are going to collapse if we don't sell 799 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:05,399 Speaker 4: in the United States. Let's take Vietnam for example. Their 800 00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:08,160 Speaker 4: whole economy is three hundred and fifty billion. Let me 801 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 4: give you a context. Texas is two trillion. Are we 802 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 4: getting this? The state of Texas, one state is a 803 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 4: two trillion dollar economy. The whole country of Vietnam is 804 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:22,600 Speaker 4: three hundred and fifty billion, and one third of their 805 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,759 Speaker 4: output is exported to the United States. So it's very 806 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 4: unlikely they're going to stick to the brick at the 807 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 4: expense of everybody losing their jobs. Right, Yeah, President Trump 808 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 4: is doing something nobody's done for a long time. History 809 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:40,040 Speaker 4: is you got to break some X to make an omelet? 810 00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 4: I think it's quite interesting. Now, let's play number four. 811 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 8: American business never stops All across the nation. Folks are 812 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,879 Speaker 8: waking up and heading off to work. Business is big 813 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:58,840 Speaker 8: and small are leading the way. Their addresses may be local, 814 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:04,160 Speaker 8: they found a way to take their business global to 815 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 8: get thanks to their partnership with the online marketplace Ali Baba, 816 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 8: American companies are now reaching global customers and the impact 817 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 8: means big business for the economy.

So 830 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:16,400 Speaker 4: we still have this globalist thing working. That could be 831 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:18,799 Speaker 4: on Fox News too. I mean, if you watch Fox News, 832 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:20,840 Speaker 4: I don't happen to watch it, but I wouldn't be 833 00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:24,360 Speaker 4: surprised that Ali Baba is also advertising there. And what 834 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:29,319 Speaker 4: a beautiful vision American businesses can grow on a Chinese platform. 835 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:34,799 Speaker 4: So we still have this globalist idea working, and it's 836 00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 4: being redefined and I'm not saying it won't be redefined 837 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 4: in a way that's very positive for all the people 838 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:46,200 Speaker 4: of this planet. But underlying this thing, because that paints 839 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 4: Ali Baba and China in such a powerful position. Really, 840 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 4: what's going on underneath the surface is China's coming apart 841 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,760 Speaker 4: it that seems economically, if I can believe the data 842 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:03,920 Speaker 4: that I'm reading, these tariffs that go back to President 843 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:07,719 Speaker 4: Trump's forty fifth presidency, where twenty five percent went on 844 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 4: has been slowly unwinding in China. China's got a tremendous 845 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:17,919 Speaker 4: economic challenge. There's actually deflation there, which means there's way 846 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 4: more production than there is demand for what is being 847 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 4: built in China, and there are trade barriers being erected 848 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:28,680 Speaker 4: against Chinese production all over the world. So China's in trouble. 849 00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 4: Thirty percent of its economy is related to real estate, 850 00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 4: and real estate development and management thirty percent. And there's 851 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 4: something like sixty to seventy million new apartments that are 852 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 4: built in China that are unoccupied, which means the price 853 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 4: of real estate is falling like a rock. And let 854 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 4: me tell you about the Chinese people. They can remember 855 00:57:55,920 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 4: inflation leading to devaluations leading to paper being worthless. In 856 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 4: recent memory, that happened when the Japanese invaded. So the 857 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:07,640 Speaker 4: Chinese people don't like to put their money in banks. 858 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 4: They put their money. The Chinese people we were talking, 859 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 4: they put their their savings into real estate. That's why 860 00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 4: they call it real So when the real estate starts 861 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 4: declining like this, there's a lot of social unrest. And 862 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 4: they built these what they call ghost cities and ghost towns, 863 00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 4: and I've seen them with my own eyes. They built 864 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,520 Speaker 4: them kind of a Ponzi scheme. They kept building and 865 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 4: building and building and building and building and building, but 866 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 4: there was no buyers for what they were building. And 867 00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 4: now the chickens have come home to roost. Well, let 868 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,360 Speaker 4: me tell you what that means, because it means something 869 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:51,120 Speaker 4: very significant. Our economy is thirty seven trillion dollars in debt. 870 00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:56,800 Speaker 4: Our country is coming apart at the seams also. But 871 00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 4: capital is not ideological. The capital seeks return and when 872 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 4: you start getting on the verge of a eschatological apocalyptic 873 00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:14,680 Speaker 4: world war, capital seeks preservation. So capital is flowing out 874 00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 4: of China in the billions every month. And where is 875 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:24,920 Speaker 4: it going into the United States? Why? Because President Trump 876 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:29,240 Speaker 4: is reindustrializing in America. President Trump has taking actions that 877 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:33,280 Speaker 4: are going to lead to a healthier economy. President Trump 878 00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 4: is presiding over a legal system which, compared to the 879 00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:42,080 Speaker 4: Chinese seems a lot more transparent and predictable. So China 880 00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 4: is under tremendous pressure. If this is a great competition 881 00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 4: between the United States and China, follow the money, because 882 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:56,680 Speaker 4: right now the money's coming home to the United States 883 00:59:56,720 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 4: of America. The trillions of dollars that was sent overseas 884 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 4: to China going back to the nineties, even the late eighties. 885 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 4: And I want to remind you I started doing business 886 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:11,200 Speaker 4: in China in nineteen ninety three. All the product that 887 01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 4: I sold here I sent to China. We're talking about 888 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 4: trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars. That money is 889 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:24,480 Speaker 4: on the way home, coming back here to be invested, here, 890 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,680 Speaker 4: to be for the benefit of our people here. If 891 01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 4: you and I do our political organizing and get people 892 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 4: into the Congress who demand that the benefits of this 893 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:41,520 Speaker 4: tremendous change that is going on in the worldwide economy, 894 01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:45,120 Speaker 4: if these benefits accrue to you and me, and if 895 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 4: we don't do the work, they're going to strip everything 896 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 4: out of our pockets, and it's going to go into 897 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 4: the pockets of a very few people that is the 898 01:00:53,080 --> 01:01:01,920 Speaker 4: importance of political organizing. President Trump and the Congress. President 899 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,640 Speaker 4: Trump signed in the law, the big beautiful bill that 900 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 4: the Congress passed. Since I saw you last, the most 901 01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 4: noteworthy part of the bill for me was the money 902 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:17,160 Speaker 4: that was allocated to the military. The military budget is 903 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:20,600 Speaker 4: now one point seventy seven trillion dollars a year when 904 01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 4: you consider the interest on that expenditure, and twenty five 905 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:32,040 Speaker 4: billion dollars was allocated for the Golden Dome. Another twenty 906 01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:38,520 Speaker 4: five billion for ammutitions, sixteen billion for innovative technologies that 907 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:43,920 Speaker 4: would be AI, fifteen billion for nuclear modernization. Nuclear modernization 908 01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 4: means more nuclear weapons, twelve billion for US military build 909 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 4: up in Asia Pacific. Goes on and on and on 910 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:54,439 Speaker 4: and on. So I could read this for the rest 911 01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:58,320 Speaker 4: of the podcast. Where all this money is going. There's 912 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:01,520 Speaker 4: many other things that went not on this bill. It 913 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:09,840 Speaker 4: really funds the priorities of the Trump administration, and it 914 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 4: will generate allegedly a budget deficit over the ten year 915 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 4: life of this bill, although I can't tell. I've read 916 01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 4: over and over again how these different agencies have scored 917 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 4: this bill, and I read how the administration opposes the 918 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 4: characteration of the bill as causing a deficit of some 919 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:40,880 Speaker 4: three point five trillion over ten years. I can't tell. 920 01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:45,400 Speaker 4: I don't think anybody else can tell. But let's just 921 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 4: say that it is going to cause a deficit of 922 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 4: three point five trillion. That doesn't consider this new tariff income, 923 01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 4: which is going to be tremendous. It could be six 924 01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 4: or seven hundred billion a year. So if everything goes 925 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:07,040 Speaker 4: on as planned, really the budget should be balanced by 926 01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:09,840 Speaker 4: the end of this period and the debt paid down. 927 01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 4: Here's the danger if you and I don't organize, if 928 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,240 Speaker 4: you and I don't talk to our neighbors and our 929 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 4: friends and get them involved in the philosophy of republicanism, 930 01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 4: if we don't let people know that this is about 931 01:03:23,040 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 4: more than politicians. It's about the culture we live in, 932 01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:32,920 Speaker 4: that we believe in self governance, that we believe in freedom. Freedom. 933 01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 4: We're going to get a Democrat and they're going to 934 01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 4: spend through all this money, including the tariff money, and 935 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 4: the budget deficit will just continue, the debt will continue 936 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 4: to grow. And I read just recently in the Minneapolis 937 01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 4: Star in Tribune some commentator that said it was meaningless, 938 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:54,000 Speaker 4: it didn't matter that deficit and that debt because these 939 01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:57,840 Speaker 4: people are stupid. And I hope you're watching me. If 940 01:03:57,880 --> 01:03:59,280 Speaker 4: you want to come on, I'm not going to say 941 01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 4: your name. You're welcome to come on. But this is 942 01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:07,200 Speaker 4: stupid to believe that this debt is not going to 943 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:10,240 Speaker 4: sink the country because the bank's going to get paid. 944 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,040 Speaker 4: The interest payment on the debt exceeds what we spend 945 01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 4: on military, and it gets bigger every year, so we've 946 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 4: got to get this under control now. Of course, this big, 947 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 4: beautiful bill did not substantially cut spending. It continued these 948 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 4: tax cuts. And I'll tell you there's a kind of 949 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:35,560 Speaker 4: a hidden buried leading there because the way this bill 950 01:04:35,640 --> 01:04:39,080 Speaker 4: is set up, the amount of money spent on the 951 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 4: military stays under three percent. So at the same time 952 01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 4: President Trump is demanding of every NATO partner a five 953 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 4: percent military spend, we didn't even hit three percent. So 954 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:53,919 Speaker 4: guess what this means over ten years. It means the 955 01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:57,880 Speaker 4: unfettered global ambitions of the neocons are going to be 956 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:02,440 Speaker 4: substantially rained in by the budget and buy this bill. 957 01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 4: And I know that sounds counterintuitive that they're using this 958 01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:12,400 Speaker 4: money to stop these people, but they are just the 959 01:05:12,440 --> 01:05:16,640 Speaker 4: same way President Biden flooded all the states when he 960 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:22,600 Speaker 4: got elected, put money everywhere, caused inflation, broke the back 961 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:26,760 Speaker 4: of the middle market, blooded every state with money it 962 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:33,120 Speaker 4: didn't need, swelled state budgets, caused a tremendous budget deficit 963 01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 4: here in Minnesota because when the Biden administration swelled all 964 01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 4: these agencies here in Minnesota. Hey, they just kept spending 965 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 4: even when the money wasn't there. That's why we have 966 01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:46,000 Speaker 4: a deficit. Now, well, how does that work. They're using 967 01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:50,360 Speaker 4: money to achieve their goals, and the goal is to 968 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:54,000 Speaker 4: rein in the empire, and they just can't afford it. 969 01:05:54,000 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 4: It's going to become obvious that even at one point 970 01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:04,520 Speaker 4: seven seven trillion dollars, we can't maintain the same military 971 01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 4: posture as we have in the past. So guess what. 972 01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:11,600 Speaker 4: We didn't get any kind of hawkish reduction in spending 973 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 4: at least yet. But the bill kind of prevents foreign 974 01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 4: policy adventurism. So the hawks lost, the deficit hawks lost, 975 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 4: and so do the warhawks. We're coming back to America 976 01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:30,600 Speaker 4: something to think about. Seems a little strange, but read 977 01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:36,320 Speaker 4: the bill and you can see it for yourself. There 978 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:41,840 Speaker 4: are things in this bill that really need to get done. 979 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:45,560 Speaker 4: They're going to redo the air traffic control for example. 980 01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:49,720 Speaker 4: That bordering immigration piece is huge. It's one hundred and 981 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 4: fifty billion. Education is getting me work. There's a bunch 982 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:55,400 Speaker 4: of issues that are going on. They're using the money 983 01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:59,520 Speaker 4: to create a more republican form of governance. One thing 984 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 4: that we're going to have to guard against because the 985 01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:04,360 Speaker 4: Democrat is not going to get out there and really 986 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:08,400 Speaker 4: talk about immigration. They're trying to demogogue the issue. They're 987 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 4: trying to it's not going to work. The issue they're 988 01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 4: going to demogogue is medicaid in healthcare because we're so afraid, afraid. 989 01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:20,680 Speaker 4: We're afraid, because we don't live in the secret place 990 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:24,120 Speaker 4: of the most High. We're afraid. So they're demogoguing the 991 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 4: healthcare issue because we've given up our self governance. And 992 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:35,400 Speaker 4: that is a demagoguery of the highest order. Because the 993 01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:38,840 Speaker 4: allegation that millions and millions of Americans are going to 994 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:44,400 Speaker 4: lose their Medicaid is untrue. They're going to be asked 995 01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:50,240 Speaker 4: to do something like work. The reduction of funding is 996 01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:53,000 Speaker 4: to go back to the pre COVID levels because COVID 997 01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:57,000 Speaker 4: is over, for example, so we're going back to the 998 01:07:57,080 --> 01:08:01,000 Speaker 4: pre COVID levels of Medicaid funding, and Medicaid is going 999 01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 4: to grow an expenditure by twenty percent over the life 1000 01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 4: of this bill. So you know, we're going to have 1001 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:11,880 Speaker 4: to get good in talking to our friends and neighbors 1002 01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:15,360 Speaker 4: that we're not kicking millions of people off Medicaid. People 1003 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 4: aren't going to die in the streets. There's going to 1004 01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:21,080 Speaker 4: be a mechanism to keep people in healthcare if they 1005 01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:25,879 Speaker 4: need it. What's happening is fraud, waste, abuse is being limited, 1006 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 4: and we're going to go to a more reasonable kind 1007 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 4: of socialized medicine, which is something that we need to 1008 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,519 Speaker 4: think about again. We always need to think about what 1009 01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 4: a socialized medicine mean. What does that mean to spend 1010 01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:43,840 Speaker 4: a couple trillion dollars a year on disease management? How 1011 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 4: could we get into disease prevention now not the right 1012 01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:50,360 Speaker 4: way to say it. How do we get into well 1013 01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 4: being enhancement? Well, it's a change of thinking, that's what 1014 01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:59,640 Speaker 4: it is. Well Being is a completely different idea from 1015 01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:03,679 Speaker 4: disease management. Tanner, could you please play number six? 1016 01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 9: You couldn't lose because of the hacking. I'm going to 1017 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:12,600 Speaker 9: let all the political pundits in this town have a 1018 01:09:12,640 --> 01:09:16,800 Speaker 9: long discussion about what happened in the election. It was 1019 01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:19,200 Speaker 9: a fascinating election, so you know, I'm sure there are 1020 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:21,320 Speaker 9: going to be a lot of books written about it. 1021 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:32,720 Speaker 9: We will provide evidence that we can safely provide that 1022 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 9: does not compromise sources and methods. But I'll be honest 1023 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:43,240 Speaker 9: with you, when you're talking about cybersecurity, a lot of 1024 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:46,160 Speaker 9: it is classified, and we're not going to provide it 1025 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 9: because the way we catch folks is by knowing certain 1026 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:59,000 Speaker 9: things about them that they may not want us to know. 1027 01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 9: And if we're going to monitor this stuff effectively going forward, 1028 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:07,160 Speaker 9: we don't want them to know that we know. So 1029 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:15,639 Speaker 9: this is one of those situations where unless the American 1030 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:23,839 Speaker 9: people genuinely think that the professionals in the CIA, the FBI, 1031 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:29,559 Speaker 9: our entire intelligence infrastructure, many of whom, by the way, 1032 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:40,679 Speaker 9: served in previous administrations and who are Republicans, are less 1033 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:52,120 Speaker 9: trustworthy than the Russians, then people should pay attention to 1034 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:55,840 Speaker 9: what our intelligence agencies say. What I worry about more 1035 01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 9: than anything is the degree to which, because of the 1036 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 9: fierceness of the partisan battle, you've started to see certain 1037 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:11,759 Speaker 9: folks in the Republican Party and Republican voters suddenly finding 1038 01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:21,240 Speaker 9: a government and individuals who stand contrary to everything that 1039 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:28,880 Speaker 9: we stand for as being okay, because that's how much 1040 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:35,320 Speaker 9: we dislike Democrats. I mean, think about it. Some of 1041 01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:40,519 Speaker 9: the people who historically have been very critical of me 1042 01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:47,880 Speaker 9: for engaging with Russians and having conversations with them also 1043 01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 9: endorse the President elect. Even as he was saying that 1044 01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:55,840 Speaker 9: we should stop sanctioning Russia and being tough on him 1045 01:11:55,880 --> 01:12:01,640 Speaker 9: and work together with him against our common enemies. It 1046 01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:05,439 Speaker 9: was very complimentary of mister Putin personally. Everything that happens 1047 01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:08,840 Speaker 9: in this town, everything that's said is seen through the 1048 01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:12,000 Speaker 9: lens of does this help or hurt us relative to 1049 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:24,600 Speaker 9: Democrats or relative to President Obama? And unless that changes, 1050 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:28,599 Speaker 9: we're going to continue to be vulnerable to foreign influence. 1051 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:33,040 Speaker 10: Do you believe Vladimir Putin himself authorized the hack? And 1052 01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:36,439 Speaker 10: do you believe he authorized that to help Donald Trump? 1053 01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:41,680 Speaker 10: Can you say unequivocally that this was not China, that 1054 01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:44,680 Speaker 10: this was not a four hundred pound guy sitting on 1055 01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:48,400 Speaker 10: his bed, as Donald Trump says, And do these types 1056 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:52,680 Speaker 10: of tweets and kinds of statements from Donald Trump embold in. 1057 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 9: The Russians, Martha. I think what I want to make 1058 01:12:56,040 --> 01:13:02,200 Speaker 9: sure of is that I give the intelligence community the 1059 01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:05,640 Speaker 9: chance to gather all the information. But I'd make a 1060 01:13:05,720 --> 01:13:09,240 Speaker 9: larger point, which is not much happens in Russia without 1061 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 9: Vladimir Putin. 1062 01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:14,559 Speaker 10: Do the tweets and do the statements by Donald Trump 1063 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 10: in bold in Russia. 1064 01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:23,160 Speaker 9: Our vulnerability to Russia or any other foreign power is 1065 01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:31,560 Speaker 9: directly related to how divided, partisan dysfunctional our political processes. 1066 01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:42,080 Speaker 9: That's the thing that makes us vulnerable. If fake news 1067 01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 9: that's being released by some foreign government is almost identical 1068 01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:59,360 Speaker 9: to reports that are being issued through partisan news venues, 1069 01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:08,760 Speaker 9: then it's not surprising that that foreign propaganda will have 1070 01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:12,360 Speaker 9: a greater effect because it doesn't seem that far fetched 1071 01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:15,120 Speaker 9: compared to some of the other stuff that folks are 1072 01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:21,040 Speaker 9: hearing from domestic propagandists. 1073 01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:25,680 Speaker 4: I think that it's worth going back over that two 1074 01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:29,719 Speaker 4: or three times to listen to what President Obama said. 1075 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:34,479 Speaker 4: And this was the predicate for a Russia Gate, and 1076 01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:38,200 Speaker 4: now we're running into a completely new spin on this, 1077 01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 4: and this goes into the grounds of nature of knowledge. 1078 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,719 Speaker 4: I'm not going to know what really happened here. Unless 1079 01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:47,240 Speaker 4: there's trials, let's play number five please. 1080 01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 11: Also breaking tonight, a potential blockbuster scandal from documents released 1081 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:54,880 Speaker 11: by the Director of National Intelligence today, Fox News Digital 1082 01:14:54,920 --> 01:15:00,360 Speaker 11: reporting the Obama administration allegedly manufactured and politicized UNTEL gents 1083 01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:03,799 Speaker 11: to create the narrative that Russia was attempting to influence 1084 01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:09,160 Speaker 11: the twenty sixteen presidential election. This reportedly happened despite intelligence 1085 01:15:09,200 --> 01:15:14,040 Speaker 11: stating otherwise. Chief Washington correspondent Mike Emmanuel has some stunning 1086 01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:16,919 Speaker 11: details to Night looking into it just released today. 1087 01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:18,599 Speaker 4: Mike, Director giving to you d and I. 1088 01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 12: Telsea Gabber declassified documents today from before and after the 1089 01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 12: twenty sixteen election, promising they would show the American people 1090 01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:29,959 Speaker 12: how intelligence was politicized and weaponized by some key figures 1091 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:33,360 Speaker 12: in the Obama administration. She talks about it in an 1092 01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:35,639 Speaker 12: interview airing on Hannity this evening. 1093 01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:39,040 Speaker 2: You have some of the most powerful people in our 1094 01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 2: country directly leading at the helm President Obama and his 1095 01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:49,800 Speaker 2: senior most national security cabinet essentially making a very intentional 1096 01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 2: decision to create this manufactured, politicized piece of intelligence. 1097 01:15:55,280 --> 01:15:58,519 Speaker 12: According to the documents, August thirty, first, twenty sixteen, a 1098 01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:02,320 Speaker 12: Homeland Security official then d and I James Clapper that 1099 01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:05,680 Speaker 12: there was quote no indication of a Russian threat to 1100 01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:10,240 Speaker 12: directly manipulate the actual vote count. On September ninth, twenty sixteen, 1101 01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:13,439 Speaker 12: officials argue the Presidential Daily Brief should make clear that 1102 01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 12: Russia quote probably is not trying to influence the election 1103 01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 12: by using cyber means to target election infrastructure. Then after 1104 01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 12: the election, the tone appears to change. On December ninth, 1105 01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:28,360 Speaker 12: twenty sixteen, the documents revealed the Obama White House held 1106 01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:32,759 Speaker 12: a National Security Council Principles Committee meeting on a sensitive topic. 1107 01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:36,000 Speaker 12: It included then d and I, James Clapper, John Brennan, 1108 01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 12: the CIA Director, Susan Rice, who was National Security Advisor, 1109 01:16:39,880 --> 01:16:43,599 Speaker 12: Andrew McKay from the FBI, and others. After that, an 1110 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:46,320 Speaker 12: email came out to Intelligence Committee leaders from an aid 1111 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 12: to Clapper saying the intelligence community was prepared to produce 1112 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 12: an assessment per President Obama's request to pull together the 1113 01:16:54,280 --> 01:16:58,680 Speaker 12: information intelligence agencies had about the tools Moscow used and 1114 01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:02,280 Speaker 12: the actions it took to influence the twenty sixteen election. 1115 01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:06,920 Speaker 12: By December fourteenth, fourteenth, there were leaks saying that intelligence 1116 01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:10,440 Speaker 12: community officials believe quote with a high level of confidence, 1117 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:14,439 Speaker 12: that Russian President Vladimir Putin was personally involved in the 1118 01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:19,240 Speaker 12: US election hack. Then, on January sixth, twenty seventeen, two 1119 01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:23,160 Speaker 12: weeks before the first Trump inauguration, a new intelligence community 1120 01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:26,280 Speaker 12: assessment was released that, according to the Office of d 1121 01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:31,559 Speaker 12: and I quote, directly contradicted the intelligence community assessments made 1122 01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:36,840 Speaker 12: throughout the previous six months. Former President Obama's office declined 1123 01:17:36,920 --> 01:17:37,479 Speaker 12: to comment. 1124 01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:44,519 Speaker 4: So we have here a clash of titans. Barack Obama 1125 01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:49,400 Speaker 4: representing the Democrat liberal order, in fact, he's the sinequa 1126 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:56,240 Speaker 4: nine of that order, and Donald Trump rolling in representing Republicanism. 1127 01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:00,519 Speaker 4: And it looks like, at least from these allegations, like 1128 01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 4: they ginned up a Russia plot to undermine the Trump presidency. 1129 01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:10,400 Speaker 4: I have no idea what happened. I read it. What 1130 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:13,080 Speaker 4: I'm reading I own trust because we're in Spooksville here. 1131 01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 4: So there are those people who are saying this will 1132 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 4: never come to a trial, and that may be true. 1133 01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:21,120 Speaker 4: And if it never comes to a trial, this is 1134 01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:25,320 Speaker 4: going to get ground into dust. We'll never know. And 1135 01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:28,120 Speaker 4: you know when you go into a courtroom, And for 1136 01:18:28,160 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 4: those of you that have been there. You know, you 1137 01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:32,719 Speaker 4: swear to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, 1138 01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:35,679 Speaker 4: so help you God. And if you don't believe in God, 1139 01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:37,680 Speaker 4: you just lie your face off. There's more line that 1140 01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:41,000 Speaker 4: goes on in courtrooms than almost any place else when 1141 01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:45,040 Speaker 4: people give witness testimony. But the documents that are introduced, 1142 01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:52,200 Speaker 4: because the lawyers still have some honor about this, generally 1143 01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:55,200 Speaker 4: is a higher level of evidence than taking a look 1144 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:59,320 Speaker 4: on acts. And so if there are trials, we will 1145 01:18:59,320 --> 01:19:02,200 Speaker 4: get a chance to look at the evidence, the written evidence, 1146 01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 4: and try to make some determination. Did the Obama administration 1147 01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:13,200 Speaker 4: undermine the Trump administration in a way that some are 1148 01:19:13,439 --> 01:19:18,720 Speaker 4: characterizing as treasoness. We won't know unless there's trials. We 1149 01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:21,200 Speaker 4: do know that, for example, along these same lines, the 1150 01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:24,840 Speaker 4: Wall Street Journal published a piece about President Trump that 1151 01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:28,880 Speaker 4: President Trump said completely fake news, and he sued the 1152 01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:32,639 Speaker 4: Wall Street Journal in the Murdochs that owned Fox News 1153 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 4: for ten billion dollars. And there's going to be a trial. 1154 01:19:37,040 --> 01:19:40,440 Speaker 4: And President Trump has prevailed in some of these trials 1155 01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:45,600 Speaker 4: against news companies that have said and published things that 1156 01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:48,880 Speaker 4: are not true. So we're going to actually have a 1157 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:52,920 Speaker 4: trial and we're going to find out if President Trump 1158 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:57,720 Speaker 4: sent Jeffrey Epstein a scatological birthday card. He did or 1159 01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:00,840 Speaker 4: he didn't. We'll find out a trial. I'm not that 1160 01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 4: interested in the allegations on X because I see so 1161 01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:06,599 Speaker 4: many things on X I can't make sense of. Because 1162 01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 4: we're living in a world where the grounds and nature 1163 01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:15,080 Speaker 4: of knowledge are being assaulted through digital means. I asked 1164 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 4: Tanner sometimes, is this video real? And he looks at me, 1165 01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:20,439 Speaker 4: he goes, no, man, are you goofy? That's so easy, 1166 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 4: that's ai. We've done that a couple of times, right, 1167 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,160 Speaker 4: because your eye is really sharp for it. We have 1168 01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 4: to be sharp, we have to be discerning. We have 1169 01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:34,880 Speaker 4: to develop powers of discernment that come from the search 1170 01:20:34,960 --> 01:20:38,240 Speaker 4: for truth. We're going back to the beginning. We're going 1171 01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:41,920 Speaker 4: back to the pre information age, where people had to meditate, 1172 01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:45,759 Speaker 4: where they had to consider what they heard, what they think, 1173 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:49,840 Speaker 4: what they say. Because I don't want to pass on 1174 01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:53,840 Speaker 4: disinformation to you. I want to try to pass on 1175 01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:57,360 Speaker 4: information that will improve the quality of our culture, the 1176 01:20:57,439 --> 01:20:59,639 Speaker 4: quality of our lives, the quality of our well being. 1177 01:21:00,160 --> 01:21:03,559 Speaker 4: And lies don't do that. So President Trump is sued 1178 01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:07,439 Speaker 4: Wall Street Journal and it's ownered Rupert Murdoch, and we're 1179 01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:10,600 Speaker 4: going to see about that what really happened. And we 1180 01:21:10,720 --> 01:21:15,080 Speaker 4: have got the word that XCIA boss John Brennan and 1181 01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:21,000 Speaker 4: x FBI boss James Comy are under criminal investigation. So 1182 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:24,080 Speaker 4: we're just going to have to get this stuff into 1183 01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:28,360 Speaker 4: what Justice Brandei is called the sunlight the best disinfectant, 1184 01:21:29,040 --> 01:21:32,120 Speaker 4: and then we're going to find out the best weekend, 1185 01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:38,080 Speaker 4: better than what we have right now, what's really what's 1186 01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:41,599 Speaker 4: really going on? And if it is true that the 1187 01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:49,360 Speaker 4: Obama administration willfully and knowledgeably painted a dishonest picture of 1188 01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:53,960 Speaker 4: the Trump incoming Trump administration to discredit it and to 1189 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:58,240 Speaker 4: wreck it politically, that'll be, in my lifetime, the most 1190 01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:05,960 Speaker 4: highness crime that has been committed by either party, and 1191 01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:09,160 Speaker 4: it's going to it's going to have to be, you know, 1192 01:22:09,240 --> 01:22:13,960 Speaker 4: resulting prosecutions. If that's the case. Will that happen? Is 1193 01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:17,599 Speaker 4: that possible in our current political system? I don't know. 1194 01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:21,360 Speaker 4: And I say this all the time as a a pundent. 1195 01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:25,320 Speaker 4: There's nothing wrong with saying we don't know. There's nothing 1196 01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:28,160 Speaker 4: wrong with it. We got too many people telling me 1197 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:31,000 Speaker 4: and telling you what's going to happen. We don't know 1198 01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:35,920 Speaker 4: what's going to happen here, but it is indicative of 1199 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:40,160 Speaker 4: this reversal of the post World War two Democrat liberal order. 1200 01:22:40,360 --> 01:22:43,240 Speaker 4: I can certainly see why the purveyors of that order 1201 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 4: seeing Donald Trump ride in the town, are going to go, Man, 1202 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:48,400 Speaker 4: we got to undermine this guy anyway we can, or 1203 01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:51,680 Speaker 4: he's going to overturn the apple cart. And they did 1204 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:55,520 Speaker 4: a damn good job in that first forty fifth presidency 1205 01:22:56,160 --> 01:23:00,800 Speaker 4: to undermine President Trump's agenda. Well, he's back now and 1206 01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:05,080 Speaker 4: he's bringing with him the kind of change that changes 1207 01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:07,439 Speaker 4: our culture and changes our politics for a long time 1208 01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:10,639 Speaker 4: to come. But we're only six months in and it's 1209 01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:14,080 Speaker 4: really not about Trump. Remember, he's reflecting you and me. 1210 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 4: Could we please be involved, and could we please learn 1211 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:22,880 Speaker 4: to talk one to another with respect? And could we 1212 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:25,400 Speaker 4: please learn to talk to people that are on the 1213 01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 4: other side of the football, Because I'm going to say again, 1214 01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 4: we're going to wake up here very shortly, shortly soon 1215 01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:40,200 Speaker 4: and recognize that this Democrat liberal, Republican conservative thing is 1216 01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:43,439 Speaker 4: a complete scam, that the philosophy of the new World 1217 01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:49,599 Speaker 4: Order and the philosophy of republicanism has been eclipsed by 1218 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:54,559 Speaker 4: this information age, and we have new allies all of 1219 01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:58,759 Speaker 4: us who want to live well in prosperity and peace 1220 01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:01,400 Speaker 4: are going to have to come together. It may take 1221 01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:03,760 Speaker 4: a little while for this to become clear to everybody. 1222 01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:06,400 Speaker 4: We're going to stay stuck in this fight, but it 1223 01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:09,400 Speaker 4: won't be very long. The robots are going to show 1224 01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:20,360 Speaker 4: up here very soon. And part of this Trump revolution 1225 01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:28,760 Speaker 4: or evolution still is a new IRS ruling that is 1226 01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 4: going to allow churches and the preachers in those churches, 1227 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:36,400 Speaker 4: the rabbis in those synagogues, and the moms in those mosques, 1228 01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:39,720 Speaker 4: they are actually going to be able to endorse candidates. 1229 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:43,000 Speaker 4: That is a big change. It's a rule proposal. It 1230 01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:46,840 Speaker 4: is likely that this rule will be approved, and at 1231 01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:51,600 Speaker 4: that moment we got a big change. The churches and 1232 01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:55,720 Speaker 4: synagogues and mosques are nonprofit organizations. They are called five 1233 01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:59,000 Speaker 4: O one C threes, and five on one C threes 1234 01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:04,920 Speaker 4: are nonprofit organszations that cannot endorse candidates. This goes back 1235 01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:09,120 Speaker 4: to the Johnson Amendment, and that is Lyndon Baines Johnson 1236 01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:15,839 Speaker 4: who set this current paradigm up in nineteen fifty four. Well, 1237 01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 4: let's think about this for a second. What happens when 1238 01:25:22,920 --> 01:25:30,760 Speaker 4: you're priest, your minister, your preacher, your rabbi can now 1239 01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:37,320 Speaker 4: speak openly about politics when they address the congregation. How's 1240 01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:47,240 Speaker 4: that going to work? You go to church tenor I 1241 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:49,200 Speaker 4: want you to know, I don't go to church. 1242 01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:50,200 Speaker 3: I don't either. 1243 01:25:50,520 --> 01:25:53,200 Speaker 4: I don't go to synagogue anymore. So it really doesn't 1244 01:25:53,240 --> 01:25:55,720 Speaker 4: have a lot of an effect on me because I'm 1245 01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:59,639 Speaker 4: not going to be there. But people are going back 1246 01:25:59,640 --> 01:26:02,000 Speaker 4: to church, particularly in your age group. Do you recognize 1247 01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:04,960 Speaker 4: that there's a big return to faith in your age group? 1248 01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:09,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've even been seeing it in music, which makes 1249 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:12,360 Speaker 3: me really happy that I've noticed a lot of music 1250 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:15,120 Speaker 3: is starting to talk about concepts of God a lot 1251 01:26:15,120 --> 01:26:18,400 Speaker 3: more and exploring spirituality. So I do think there's a 1252 01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 3: culture shift happening. 1253 01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:21,280 Speaker 4: Here is a culture shift happening, and people are going 1254 01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:23,479 Speaker 4: to be sitting in the pewse because they're seeking the 1255 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 4: search for truth. And you might say, why don't you go? 1256 01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:30,559 Speaker 4: And I'm going to tell you why I don't go. 1257 01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 4: I don't go because I was raised in a traditional 1258 01:26:33,280 --> 01:26:39,520 Speaker 4: Orthodox Jewish family and I had this experience where I 1259 01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:44,759 Speaker 4: had this revelatory moment with Christ and there's no place 1260 01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:48,040 Speaker 4: for me to go. Now. The people are going to say, yes, 1261 01:26:48,080 --> 01:26:50,840 Speaker 4: there is. But when I go to those places and 1262 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 4: I hear melodies and prayers that are not traditional, I 1263 01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:59,360 Speaker 4: don't feel at home. So I'm a little bit rootless 1264 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,439 Speaker 4: and I'm not play and I'm starting my own church, 1265 01:27:01,840 --> 01:27:04,160 Speaker 4: so I just pray at home and it all makes 1266 01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:06,800 Speaker 4: sense to me. I don't fit in very well, although 1267 01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:09,000 Speaker 4: I'm fitting in well with you, so thank you for 1268 01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:11,760 Speaker 4: tolerating me. It's nice to be here with you. We 1269 01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:14,680 Speaker 4: got our own community, we got going here. But if 1270 01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:18,439 Speaker 4: you're going to church and you're part of a faith community, 1271 01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:23,479 Speaker 4: your preacher or your minister or your priest is going 1272 01:27:23,520 --> 01:27:29,000 Speaker 4: to very shortly have the ability to preach about politics. 1273 01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:33,880 Speaker 4: I wonder how that's going to go down Where you pray. Boy, 1274 01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:36,559 Speaker 4: it's going to reveal some things real quickly that have 1275 01:27:36,600 --> 01:27:38,760 Speaker 4: been hidden. And let me tell you what the fundamental 1276 01:27:38,800 --> 01:27:44,200 Speaker 4: one is. These are businesses. That's right, you're a customer 1277 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:48,040 Speaker 4: because if you don't go and pay your dues, your tithe, 1278 01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:51,280 Speaker 4: you know, because we're supposed to kick in, right. If 1279 01:27:51,280 --> 01:27:54,599 Speaker 4: we don't go and kick in the business closes. I 1280 01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:59,439 Speaker 4: know that sounds rather crude, but I'm just calling balls 1281 01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:04,759 Speaker 4: and strikes to I see him. Every religious institution, every 1282 01:28:05,960 --> 01:28:10,120 Speaker 4: community has a building, has a facility, could have a mortgage, 1283 01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 4: has a roof that's got to get replaced, Heat's got 1284 01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:16,000 Speaker 4: to get paid. It has an administrative staff. All those 1285 01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:19,559 Speaker 4: people got to get paid. It has a clergy. It 1286 01:28:19,600 --> 01:28:23,439 Speaker 4: has outreach, the bus that takes people here, there, hither, there, 1287 01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:27,680 Speaker 4: and yon. Every church is like this. Small churches are 1288 01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:32,080 Speaker 4: that way, and giant houses of worship are that way. 1289 01:28:33,320 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 4: And now the preacher is going to get up in 1290 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:40,559 Speaker 4: front of his parishioners, and if he takes a stand 1291 01:28:40,720 --> 01:28:42,519 Speaker 4: or she takes a stand one way or the other, 1292 01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:45,160 Speaker 4: about half the people in the audience are going to 1293 01:28:45,160 --> 01:28:49,680 Speaker 4: get pissed off. They might leave. That could hurt the 1294 01:28:49,720 --> 01:28:55,439 Speaker 4: business of the church or the business of the synagogue. Wow, 1295 01:28:56,160 --> 01:29:01,320 Speaker 4: what a challenge these people now face, because if they 1296 01:29:01,439 --> 01:29:04,479 Speaker 4: hide and they don't take a position, that's going to 1297 01:29:04,520 --> 01:29:07,880 Speaker 4: piss off a bunch of people. Oh, we got a 1298 01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:11,680 Speaker 4: lively environment now coming up in the churches and synagogues 1299 01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:15,240 Speaker 4: and mosques. Now, of course, in the mosques, I don't 1300 01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:19,920 Speaker 4: have much insight into that. The more traditional and I'm 1301 01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:23,160 Speaker 4: not saying there aren't reform mosques, I don't know I'm 1302 01:29:23,200 --> 01:29:27,160 Speaker 4: not a Muslim, but I can talk about the Jewish community. 1303 01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:31,760 Speaker 4: There's a Reformed, there's a Conservative, and there's an Orthodox. 1304 01:29:32,400 --> 01:29:36,040 Speaker 4: They don't agree politically. It's across a wide spectrum. What's 1305 01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:39,240 Speaker 4: going to happen in here? Wow? And I'm going to 1306 01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:41,519 Speaker 4: make a prediction. And I'm going to tell you it's 1307 01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:45,000 Speaker 4: a prediction because I don't know for sure. It's fortune telling, 1308 01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:48,520 Speaker 4: But I think a lot of these preachers and ministers 1309 01:29:48,520 --> 01:29:51,720 Speaker 4: and priests and rabbis in the mom's they're not going 1310 01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:54,559 Speaker 4: to take a position because you're going to piss off 1311 01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:58,120 Speaker 4: your customers. And if you piss off your customers, you 1312 01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:02,400 Speaker 4: could lose your job. Oh. Then some other people are 1313 01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:05,719 Speaker 4: going to say, man, you're a sellout to the cash. 1314 01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:09,200 Speaker 4: You're not really preaching the faith. You're in it for 1315 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:11,559 Speaker 4: the money. Because if you were in it for the faith, 1316 01:30:11,960 --> 01:30:14,519 Speaker 4: you would preach on the faith and you would realize 1317 01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:17,920 Speaker 4: that this religion is really political. Ooh, we got a 1318 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:21,680 Speaker 4: big change coming up here, a big change. We need 1319 01:30:21,720 --> 01:30:24,200 Speaker 4: to watch this. And if you're in a faith community, 1320 01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:26,880 Speaker 4: when this rule comes down and it's approved, I'll let 1321 01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:30,400 Speaker 4: you know it's proposed, it probably will be approved, and 1322 01:30:30,439 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 4: that means in the next political cycle, wherever you pray, 1323 01:30:36,040 --> 01:30:39,799 Speaker 4: the big boss of your congregation, your minister, your preacher, 1324 01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:43,920 Speaker 4: your rabbi, they can stand up there and say, you know, 1325 01:30:46,240 --> 01:30:51,720 Speaker 4: XYZ is forbidden, therefore vote for this candidate because they 1326 01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:56,280 Speaker 4: follow the word. Are you seeing how big a deal 1327 01:30:56,360 --> 01:30:56,760 Speaker 4: this is? 1328 01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:59,639 Speaker 3: What happened to the separation a church and state. It's 1329 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 3: still but you know it's going in the reverse. If 1330 01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:07,320 Speaker 3: the preacher can start talking about who you should vote 1331 01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:10,000 Speaker 3: for and based on that, isn't that the state going 1332 01:31:10,040 --> 01:31:10,679 Speaker 3: into the church. 1333 01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:15,720 Speaker 4: No, that'd be the church going into the state. That 1334 01:31:15,760 --> 01:31:20,040 Speaker 4: would be organizing your parishioners to be politically potent to 1335 01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:26,040 Speaker 4: make your ideology, elect people that pursue and promote the 1336 01:31:26,120 --> 01:31:29,240 Speaker 4: ideas that you believe it. But we're not choosing a 1337 01:31:29,280 --> 01:31:35,240 Speaker 4: state religion that would be foreboden that constitution. We're not 1338 01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:38,519 Speaker 4: creating a state religion. What we're doing is we're making 1339 01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:43,960 Speaker 4: things obvious. Now we're going to find out, and I'm 1340 01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:47,720 Speaker 4: sorry to be so blunt about this, but we're going 1341 01:31:47,800 --> 01:31:50,240 Speaker 4: to find out who's in it for the money. Because 1342 01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:52,559 Speaker 4: if they're in it for the money, they're not going 1343 01:31:52,640 --> 01:32:01,320 Speaker 4: to say anything. Religions are political movements. Judy is is 1344 01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:04,960 Speaker 4: the nation of Israel. It's a political movement. How obvious 1345 01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:07,920 Speaker 4: is it. Take a look at what it's doing. It's 1346 01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:12,880 Speaker 4: a political movement. Christianity, how about the Crusades? I mean, 1347 01:32:12,920 --> 01:32:17,679 Speaker 4: these are political movements. Islam is a political movement. Now 1348 01:32:17,680 --> 01:32:20,519 Speaker 4: we're ripping the band aid off of this thing. We 1349 01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:27,960 Speaker 4: call them religions, but they actually are looking for more participants, 1350 01:32:28,040 --> 01:32:31,840 Speaker 4: just like a political party. They want to convert other 1351 01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:34,880 Speaker 4: people to their way of thinking. We're getting down to 1352 01:32:34,920 --> 01:32:38,880 Speaker 4: it now, aren't we crazy? Isn't it? So when you're 1353 01:32:38,920 --> 01:32:41,920 Speaker 4: going to your church or your synagogue after this rules 1354 01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:48,639 Speaker 4: in place, and your religious leader has no comment about politics, well, 1355 01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:50,640 Speaker 4: I'll tell you what I would do. I'd raise my 1356 01:32:50,720 --> 01:32:55,240 Speaker 4: hand and I'd say, Rabbi, what about this rule? Who 1357 01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:58,160 Speaker 4: do I vote for? I don't understand. I'd bait them 1358 01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:02,960 Speaker 4: out into the open and they'd say, well, well, you 1359 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:04,800 Speaker 4: know we don't want to comment on such a thing. 1360 01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:09,240 Speaker 4: Then you know that my rabbi is in it for 1361 01:33:09,320 --> 01:33:12,480 Speaker 4: the cash because it doesn't want to go on the record. 1362 01:33:13,680 --> 01:33:17,160 Speaker 4: That's where we're heading. And if half of these institutions 1363 01:33:17,200 --> 01:33:21,240 Speaker 4: go out of business because what they're selling is a business. 1364 01:33:22,320 --> 01:33:26,679 Speaker 4: That's okay with me. Let's have the institutions that remain 1365 01:33:27,920 --> 01:33:32,000 Speaker 4: be dedicated to teaching the people the search for truth 1366 01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:39,000 Speaker 4: so that people can find the secret place where they 1367 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:45,080 Speaker 4: can dwell with the most high And that's the way 1368 01:33:45,479 --> 01:33:48,680 Speaker 4: we're going to balance out this information age so we 1369 01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:52,360 Speaker 4: don't lose our lives. And on that note, I want 1370 01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:54,880 Speaker 4: to thank you for joining tonight. I feel like I 1371 01:33:55,000 --> 01:33:58,080 Speaker 4: took a week off last week. Yeah, tough to get 1372 01:33:58,120 --> 01:33:58,920 Speaker 4: back into the groove. 1373 01:33:59,120 --> 01:34:01,160 Speaker 3: It felt a little different recording this one. 1374 01:34:01,040 --> 01:34:04,400 Speaker 4: Yes, it did after coming off of that great podcast 1375 01:34:04,400 --> 01:34:06,559 Speaker 4: with Richard Bars, which if you are a member of 1376 01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:10,240 Speaker 4: the Republican Party of Mere in Minnesota, I highly urge 1377 01:34:10,280 --> 01:34:12,439 Speaker 4: you to go back and watch this, and we're going 1378 01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:16,040 Speaker 4: to talk about it more on Thursday night. Anyhow, so 1379 01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:20,640 Speaker 4: much change, so much change is going on. We're going 1380 01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:24,439 Speaker 4: to try to keep up with it. Please stay alert, 1381 01:34:25,200 --> 01:34:29,240 Speaker 4: get involved. This is not going to work unless we 1382 01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:33,840 Speaker 4: go into the political process. I'm trying to be entertaining. 1383 01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:37,040 Speaker 4: I'm so glad you're with me tonight. I appreciate it. 1384 01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:39,160 Speaker 4: I try to communicate with you. Many of you know 1385 01:34:39,200 --> 01:34:42,320 Speaker 4: I'm sincere about that, but we've got to take this 1386 01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:46,240 Speaker 4: community and get it out into the streets, as Susan says, 1387 01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:49,839 Speaker 4: to the streets, so that we follow through and maintain 1388 01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:54,439 Speaker 4: this republic and get back to having the freedom that 1389 01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:58,960 Speaker 4: was promised to us in our great Constitution.
