1
00:00:11,697 --> 00:00:14,977
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure

2
00:00:14,977 --> 00:00:17,977
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or

3
00:00:18,017 --> 00:00:22,417
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. The Secretary of War has

4
00:00:22,617 --> 00:00:26,977
Speaker 1: blown up almost one hundred Narco terrorists in the Caribbean

5
00:00:27,177 --> 00:00:30,657
Speaker 1: trying to take boats full of fentyl into our country.

6
00:00:31,057 --> 00:00:35,377
Speaker 1: And he's saying that, to borrow from another famous military figure,

7
00:00:35,777 --> 00:00:39,337
Speaker 1: he has not yet begun to drone or to fight

8
00:00:39,737 --> 00:00:42,617
Speaker 1: in this context. He's doubling down on this. There's all

9
00:00:42,657 --> 00:00:47,217
Speaker 1: this controversy around it right now, let's dispel the nonsense.

10
00:00:47,297 --> 00:00:49,897
Speaker 1: Let's get right down into the heart of it. What's

11
00:00:49,937 --> 00:00:53,537
Speaker 1: going on. As we know, there is really a war

12
00:00:53,577 --> 00:00:55,377
Speaker 1: on drugs, that is actually a war that has been

13
00:00:55,457 --> 00:00:59,137
Speaker 1: underway under this administration for some time. And the Pentagon

14
00:00:59,577 --> 00:01:06,097
Speaker 1: and Joint Special Operations Command, the Special Operations super secret

15
00:01:06,137 --> 00:01:10,657
Speaker 1: Squirrel branch of the military has been in aged in

16
00:01:10,737 --> 00:01:14,657
Speaker 1: strikes on Narco boats go fast boats laden with mostly

17
00:01:14,697 --> 00:01:17,617
Speaker 1: fentanel on their way into the United States. We've blown

18
00:01:17,737 --> 00:01:22,577
Speaker 1: up numerous boats. About eighty people have been targets. People

19
00:01:23,417 --> 00:01:27,377
Speaker 1: involved with the cartels have been taken out in this process.

20
00:01:27,857 --> 00:01:29,577
Speaker 1: So then the New York Times and others come up

21
00:01:29,617 --> 00:01:30,937
Speaker 1: with this story. I'm going to read to you what

22
00:01:30,977 --> 00:01:34,417
Speaker 1: they're saying. According to five US officials who spoke on

23
00:01:34,457 --> 00:01:38,377
Speaker 1: the condition of anonymity, blah blah blah, mister Hegseth ahead

24
00:01:38,377 --> 00:01:41,417
Speaker 1: of the September a second attack, ordered a strike that

25
00:01:41,457 --> 00:01:43,377
Speaker 1: would kill the people on the boat and destroy the

26
00:01:43,497 --> 00:01:47,977
Speaker 1: vessel and its purported cargo of drugs. Each official said

27
00:01:48,177 --> 00:01:52,337
Speaker 1: that mister Hegseth's directive did not specifically address what should

28
00:01:52,377 --> 00:01:55,417
Speaker 1: happen if a first missile turned out to not fully

29
00:01:55,457 --> 00:01:58,057
Speaker 1: accomplish all of those things, and the official said his

30
00:01:58,217 --> 00:02:01,177
Speaker 1: order was not a response to surveillance footage showing that

31
00:02:01,217 --> 00:02:03,457
Speaker 1: at least two people in the boat survived the first blast.

32
00:02:03,937 --> 00:02:06,857
Speaker 1: Admiral Bradley ordered the initial missile strike and then several

33
00:02:06,897 --> 00:02:09,217
Speaker 1: follow up strikes that killed the initial survivors and sank

34
00:02:09,257 --> 00:02:12,297
Speaker 1: they disabled boat. As that operation unfold that, they said,

35
00:02:12,577 --> 00:02:15,697
Speaker 1: mister Hegseth did not give any further orders to him.

36
00:02:16,057 --> 00:02:21,457
Speaker 1: So my friends, initially they said that there was this

37
00:02:21,537 --> 00:02:23,377
Speaker 1: was just reported on by the New York Trump's. Initially

38
00:02:23,457 --> 00:02:27,297
Speaker 1: they said that there was a effectively a kill order given,

39
00:02:27,817 --> 00:02:31,257
Speaker 1: which would be a problem. You're allowed to try to

40
00:02:31,337 --> 00:02:33,297
Speaker 1: kill people who are a threat. You're allowed to kill

41
00:02:33,297 --> 00:02:37,537
Speaker 1: people who are designated enemy enemies of the United States

42
00:02:37,617 --> 00:02:40,137
Speaker 1: for a whole bunch of legal and complicated reasons we

43
00:02:40,137 --> 00:02:43,497
Speaker 1: won't get into. But if you have disabled somebody, if

44
00:02:43,497 --> 00:02:44,897
Speaker 1: they are out of the fight, you're not allowed to

45
00:02:44,897 --> 00:02:45,657
Speaker 1: just finish them off.

46
00:02:45,737 --> 00:02:45,897
Speaker 2: Right.

47
00:02:45,897 --> 00:02:50,097
Speaker 1: This would be effectively the no bayoneting survivors on the

48
00:02:50,137 --> 00:02:53,537
Speaker 1: battlefield approach to things. Well, what the New York Times

49
00:02:53,577 --> 00:02:58,177
Speaker 1: seems to be admitting here is that that's not what happened.

50
00:02:58,817 --> 00:03:00,657
Speaker 1: That there was a boat and that took more than

51
00:03:00,697 --> 00:03:03,217
Speaker 1: one shot to take out the boat, and that's what

52
00:03:03,417 --> 00:03:09,337
Speaker 1: they did. And certainly Secretary of War Hegseth is not

53
00:03:10,217 --> 00:03:14,257
Speaker 1: backing down one bid on this. In fact, he said

54
00:03:14,257 --> 00:03:16,177
Speaker 1: that he is just beginning to kill Narco.

55
00:03:16,377 --> 00:03:21,377
Speaker 2: We just begun striking Narco boats and putting Narco terrorists

56
00:03:22,377 --> 00:03:24,977
Speaker 2: at the bottom of the ocean because they've been poisoning

57
00:03:24,977 --> 00:03:25,857
Speaker 2: the American people.

58
00:03:26,257 --> 00:03:28,137
Speaker 3: And Joe Biden tried to.

59
00:03:28,097 --> 00:03:30,577
Speaker 2: Approach it with kid gloves and allowed him to come.

60
00:03:30,537 --> 00:03:31,257
Speaker 1: Across the border.

61
00:03:31,337 --> 00:03:35,337
Speaker 2: Cartels takeover community, twenty million people, hundreds of thousands of

62
00:03:35,337 --> 00:03:38,657
Speaker 2: Americans poisoned, and President Trump said no we're taking the

63
00:03:38,657 --> 00:03:42,217
Speaker 2: bluffs off, We're taking the fight to these designated terror organizations,

64
00:03:42,457 --> 00:03:42,937
Speaker 2: and that's.

65
00:03:42,817 --> 00:03:43,857
Speaker 3: Exactly what we're doing.

66
00:03:43,897 --> 00:03:46,657
Speaker 2: So we're stopping the drugs, we're striking the boats, we're

67
00:03:46,657 --> 00:03:48,417
Speaker 2: defeating narco terrists and worth.

68
00:03:48,697 --> 00:03:51,257
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's going to be a lot more of what

69
00:03:51,417 --> 00:03:54,697
Speaker 1: we are seeing, and this is putting a tremendous pressure

70
00:03:54,697 --> 00:03:58,777
Speaker 1: on Venezuela. As we know, because Venezuela hasn't been until

71
00:03:58,817 --> 00:04:01,097
Speaker 1: recently in the headlines very much. Is a narco regime.

72
00:04:01,657 --> 00:04:04,177
Speaker 1: Venezuela is only able to exist because of the hard

73
00:04:04,177 --> 00:04:06,417
Speaker 1: currency that it gets. Yes, in part from oil, but

74
00:04:06,457 --> 00:04:10,897
Speaker 1: its oil industry is in the rough shape. I'll put

75
00:04:10,897 --> 00:04:16,297
Speaker 1: it that way, fo Bar in the military terminology, it's

76
00:04:16,337 --> 00:04:20,017
Speaker 1: oil industry, but also the narco narco trafficking that it

77
00:04:20,097 --> 00:04:24,497
Speaker 1: does is how the Majuro regime actually stays in power.

78
00:04:24,897 --> 00:04:27,017
Speaker 1: That's where the hard currency, the hard cash comes in

79
00:04:27,057 --> 00:04:29,497
Speaker 1: billions and billions of dollars that they're able to pay

80
00:04:29,537 --> 00:04:31,897
Speaker 1: off their security thugs and payoff who need to be

81
00:04:31,897 --> 00:04:33,737
Speaker 1: paid off and make sure that they can get the

82
00:04:33,737 --> 00:04:36,017
Speaker 1: things in the black market that they need for themselves

83
00:04:36,017 --> 00:04:40,017
Speaker 1: and their families. So there's that component and then eventually

84
00:04:40,057 --> 00:04:42,257
Speaker 1: we're going to have to think about how to deal

85
00:04:42,377 --> 00:04:46,737
Speaker 1: with Mexico on all of this, with the Mexican drug cartels,

86
00:04:46,737 --> 00:04:50,137
Speaker 1: because that's the that is the so called eight hundred

87
00:04:50,137 --> 00:04:55,457
Speaker 1: pound gorilla in the drug war room is Mexico. So

88
00:04:55,697 --> 00:04:57,657
Speaker 1: we'll continue to get into that here in a moment.

89
00:04:58,097 --> 00:05:01,217
Speaker 1: But look, the American Revolution didn't just happen, and our

90
00:05:01,257 --> 00:05:04,217
Speaker 1: sponsor at Hillsdale College wants you to know why it happened,

91
00:05:04,217 --> 00:05:06,937
Speaker 1: what were the reasons for it. In fact, there's all

92
00:05:06,937 --> 00:05:10,577
Speaker 1: these incredible courses online that Hillsdale puts out just because

93
00:05:10,577 --> 00:05:12,937
Speaker 1: they want people to know history, know America, know the

94
00:05:12,937 --> 00:05:18,137
Speaker 1: truth of this country. And the Declaration of Independence, for example,

95
00:05:18,377 --> 00:05:22,017
Speaker 1: is just one part of that era that school kids

96
00:05:22,097 --> 00:05:23,537
Speaker 1: learn about. But there's a lot more. There's a lot

97
00:05:23,617 --> 00:05:25,657
Speaker 1: leading up to it. We should be more well versed,

98
00:05:25,657 --> 00:05:28,737
Speaker 1: we the American people in our own history at a

99
00:05:28,777 --> 00:05:31,377
Speaker 1: whole range of subjects, including the Book of Genesis, the

100

Speaker 1: buck to enroll today. So now we have what the

108
00:05:59,697 --> 00:06:02,697
Speaker 1: Democrats are trying to do here, which is seize upon

109
00:06:02,817 --> 00:06:07,097
Speaker 1: this no surprise as a political issue. Here's Hakim Jeffries.

110
00:06:07,017 --> 00:06:09,537
Speaker 4: The question in front of us, and I believe there

111
00:06:09,577 --> 00:06:15,017
Speaker 4: will be bipartisan investigations in both the House and in

112
00:06:15,057 --> 00:06:21,977
Speaker 4: the Senate in order to determine whether war crimes were

113
00:06:22,017 --> 00:06:28,177
Speaker 4: committed and either US law or international law or both

114
00:06:29,177 --> 00:06:29,937
Speaker 4: were violated.

115
00:06:30,217 --> 00:06:34,617
Speaker 1: So they're saying it's a war crime. They don't even

116
00:06:34,657 --> 00:06:36,457
Speaker 1: know the facts of this. They don't care what the

117
00:06:36,457 --> 00:06:39,177
Speaker 1: facts of this are. I think that's something you always

118
00:06:39,177 --> 00:06:42,657
Speaker 1: have to remember when you're dealing with Democrats. The truth

119
00:06:42,697 --> 00:06:45,217
Speaker 1: does not matter. What matters to them is power and

120
00:06:45,337 --> 00:06:49,857
Speaker 1: their ability to construct a narrative that is useful in

121
00:06:49,937 --> 00:06:53,377
Speaker 1: their pursuit of power. As long as that is the case,

122
00:06:53,977 --> 00:06:56,697
Speaker 1: that's all that matters. So while we'll look at this

123
00:06:56,777 --> 00:06:58,337
Speaker 1: and say, hold on a second, the New York Times

124
00:06:58,377 --> 00:07:00,777
Speaker 1: is even saying that hegset didn't give the follow up

125
00:07:01,657 --> 00:07:06,297
Speaker 1: quote kill order. That's not even true. What they want

126
00:07:06,337 --> 00:07:09,497
Speaker 1: to do is turn this into let's be honest. They

127
00:07:09,497 --> 00:07:11,937
Speaker 1: want to make this book grape. They want to make

128
00:07:11,977 --> 00:07:16,497
Speaker 1: this CIA black sites doing enhance interrogation. They hope to

129
00:07:16,617 --> 00:07:22,497
Speaker 1: turn the war on narco trafficking into a political liability

130
00:07:23,257 --> 00:07:27,417
Speaker 1: for the American people. And they don't care. People like KAKEM.

131
00:07:27,497 --> 00:07:33,297
Speaker 1: Jeffries frankly do not care in the least that there

132
00:07:33,297 --> 00:07:36,297
Speaker 1: are one hundred thousand Americans dying and what is being

133
00:07:36,337 --> 00:07:39,017
Speaker 1: done in the Caribbean right now, dying from fentanl and

134
00:07:39,057 --> 00:07:41,457
Speaker 1: what is being done in the Caribbean is going to

135
00:07:41,497 --> 00:07:45,257
Speaker 1: bring that number down by thousands. It's going to bring

136
00:07:45,297 --> 00:07:49,097
Speaker 1: that number down substantially. You can already see importation of drugs.

137
00:07:49,137 --> 00:07:52,417
Speaker 1: Trump talked about this this week in the press conference

138
00:07:52,417 --> 00:07:54,097
Speaker 1: that he or in the cabinet meeting that he held,

139
00:07:54,377 --> 00:07:57,777
Speaker 1: which is kind of like a press conference. The importation

140
00:07:57,817 --> 00:08:00,977
Speaker 1: of drugs from CEA has gone down dramatically. That's a

141
00:08:01,097 --> 00:08:04,697
Speaker 1: major shift. That's something that cannot be ignored. But there's

142
00:08:04,697 --> 00:08:06,817
Speaker 1: going to be a lot of other things as well

143
00:08:07,657 --> 00:08:11,417
Speaker 1: that get better. Because remember, as I liked to remind everybody.

144
00:08:12,017 --> 00:08:14,457
Speaker 1: It's not just a drug overdose deaths, although that's the

145
00:08:14,457 --> 00:08:19,217
Speaker 1: most horrific part of this, people dying and family shattered.

146
00:08:19,897 --> 00:08:23,137
Speaker 1: But then there's also the addictions that are created, the

147
00:08:23,337 --> 00:08:26,017
Speaker 1: crime that comes from those addictions, because people are trying

148
00:08:26,017 --> 00:08:28,697
Speaker 1: to feed the addiction, they can't hold the job, and

149
00:08:28,937 --> 00:08:34,137
Speaker 1: the overall degradation of society and criminality that comes from fentanyl.

150
00:08:34,137 --> 00:08:36,697
Speaker 1: And fentanyl is different than marijuana, it's different than other drugs.

151
00:08:36,857 --> 00:08:40,417
Speaker 1: It is far more dangerous, far more addictive, far more deadly.

152
00:08:41,377 --> 00:08:44,497
Speaker 1: And so we are taking a this administration is taking

153
00:08:44,497 --> 00:08:48,577
Speaker 1: a very different approach to it, and instead of looking

154
00:08:48,617 --> 00:08:51,497
Speaker 1: at this as saving American lives, democrats just view it

155
00:08:51,537 --> 00:08:55,377
Speaker 1: as a political opening, a political opportunity. And in fact,

156
00:08:55,417 --> 00:08:58,137
Speaker 1: perhaps nobody is a bigger opportunist on this issue than

157
00:08:58,857 --> 00:09:04,777
Speaker 1: Mark Kelly, who's playing tough guy over here going after

158
00:09:04,897 --> 00:09:06,337
Speaker 1: Secretary of warhead set.

159
00:09:06,257 --> 00:09:09,857
Speaker 3: Runs around on a stage like he's a twelve year

160
00:09:09,857 --> 00:09:15,537
Speaker 3: old play an army and it is ridiculous, It is embarrassing,

161
00:09:16,497 --> 00:09:21,417
Speaker 3: and I can't imagine what our allies think of looking

162
00:09:21,457 --> 00:09:24,897
Speaker 3: at that guy in this job, one of the most

163
00:09:24,937 --> 00:09:29,537
Speaker 3: important jobs in our country in my view, After the

164
00:09:29,537 --> 00:09:33,017
Speaker 3: President of the United States. It is the next most

165
00:09:33,057 --> 00:09:37,297
Speaker 3: important job. He is in the National Command Authority for

166
00:09:37,417 --> 00:09:42,057
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons, and last night he's putting out on the

167
00:09:42,097 --> 00:09:48,297
Speaker 3: internet turtles with rocket propelled grenades. I mean, have you

168
00:09:48,337 --> 00:09:51,937
Speaker 3: seen this. This is the Secretary of Defense. This is

169
00:09:51,977 --> 00:09:54,977
Speaker 3: not a serious person. He should have been fired after

170
00:09:55,017 --> 00:09:58,977
Speaker 3: Signal Gate and then every single day after.

171
00:09:58,937 --> 00:10:03,217
Speaker 1: Okay, twelve year old playing army. Look, I don't really

172
00:10:03,257 --> 00:10:07,137
Speaker 1: think that anybody wants to hear Democrats who were pushing

173
00:10:07,177 --> 00:10:11,857
Speaker 1: the transing of our military members, who thought the military

174
00:10:11,897 --> 00:10:16,457
Speaker 1: should be increasingly a social engineering experiment in the Marxist

175
00:10:16,657 --> 00:10:21,857
Speaker 1: or the racial Marxist lunacy, the gender identity lunacy. That

176
00:10:21,897 --> 00:10:25,137
Speaker 1: they have been always pushing things like men and women

177
00:10:25,257 --> 00:10:28,777
Speaker 1: no difference in combat effectiveness for infantry units. That's crazy,

178
00:10:29,377 --> 00:10:31,097
Speaker 1: And all of the data shows that that is not

179
00:10:31,137 --> 00:10:34,497
Speaker 1: even close to the case. That men are overwhelmingly more

180
00:10:34,537 --> 00:10:39,737
Speaker 1: combat effective leafs and bounds orders of magnitude compared to

181
00:10:39,777 --> 00:10:42,657
Speaker 1: women in infantry role as I'm not talking about helicopter pilots.

182
00:10:42,697 --> 00:10:48,937
Speaker 1: I'm talking about people carrying packs with guns in ground fights,

183
00:10:49,257 --> 00:10:51,817
Speaker 1: you know, or on the ground in gun battles with people.

184
00:10:53,017 --> 00:10:55,897
Speaker 1: Turns out men are better at that than women. Almost

185
00:10:55,977 --> 00:10:58,377
Speaker 1: all men in the military are better than almost all

186
00:10:58,417 --> 00:11:03,177
Speaker 1: women at that. That's just the case. But they lie

187
00:11:03,257 --> 00:11:05,217
Speaker 1: about this stuff and they pretend that we don't know

188
00:11:05,257 --> 00:11:08,577
Speaker 1: what we know. And people like Mark Kelly smirk and

189
00:11:09,057 --> 00:11:14,817
Speaker 1: honestly use their military service as both sword and shield.

190
00:11:15,057 --> 00:11:17,657
Speaker 1: They'll attack everybody. And Mark Kelly's sharing, you know, he

191
00:11:17,737 --> 00:11:21,297
Speaker 1: shared his uhs many medals. You know, he's got it's

192
00:11:21,297 --> 00:11:26,257
Speaker 1: got like more medals than like Kadafi used to walk

193
00:11:26,297 --> 00:11:28,057
Speaker 1: around with. You know, oh, look at all my medals.

194
00:11:28,657 --> 00:11:31,457
Speaker 1: And a lot of other people are saying, well, yeah,

195
00:11:31,497 --> 00:11:33,817
Speaker 1: I serve too. Those people are saying it. I'm not

196
00:11:33,857 --> 00:11:36,657
Speaker 1: saying it. I serve too. And I think you're a jerk,

197
00:11:36,737 --> 00:11:39,257
Speaker 1: and I think what you're saying is wrong, and stop

198
00:11:39,297 --> 00:11:42,417
Speaker 1: acting like you're beyond criticism because of your because of

199
00:11:42,457 --> 00:11:44,937
Speaker 1: your service. So you know, Mark Kelly is one of

200
00:11:44,977 --> 00:11:48,177
Speaker 1: these rare democrats who I'll tell you they tried this

201
00:11:48,217 --> 00:11:51,337
Speaker 1: with Buddha judge. But I can say this because I

202
00:11:51,417 --> 00:11:52,577
Speaker 1: was a bit of a of a what they call

203
00:11:52,617 --> 00:11:55,977
Speaker 1: the fobbit in my day Ford Operating Base. The fob

204
00:11:56,897 --> 00:11:59,057
Speaker 1: I was mostly because I was an analyst just on

205
00:11:59,097 --> 00:12:00,537
Speaker 1: the base. Now, I actually did get out in the

206
00:12:00,537 --> 00:12:04,697
Speaker 1: Red Zone a bunch of times, just you know, moving

207
00:12:04,737 --> 00:12:08,697
Speaker 1: around country for different CIA related reasons, in Irock and Afghanistan.

208
00:12:09,177 --> 00:12:12,857
Speaker 1: But I want a door kicker. I wasn't in active combat,

209
00:12:13,297 --> 00:12:15,617
Speaker 1: and so you know, you got to know who you are, right,

210
00:12:15,777 --> 00:12:19,737
Speaker 1: someone like Pete Buddha Judge. I think it was Robb

211
00:12:19,817 --> 00:12:22,937
Speaker 1: O'Neil who was on the Seal Team six mission that

212
00:12:23,017 --> 00:12:25,937
Speaker 1: killed Bin Laden who said that, Yeah, Buddha Judge served,

213
00:12:25,937 --> 00:12:27,937
Speaker 1: and that's very nice, but it doesn't make him a

214
00:12:27,977 --> 00:12:30,417
Speaker 1: tough guy. He served on a base next to a Starbucks.

215
00:12:30,577 --> 00:12:33,657
Speaker 1: Now that's harsh but true because there was a Starbucks

216
00:12:33,697 --> 00:12:35,497
Speaker 1: basically on that base, because I was also on that

217
00:12:35,537 --> 00:12:38,777
Speaker 1: base for a while in Afghanistan. And you know, if

218
00:12:38,777 --> 00:12:40,217
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about this, we're going to talk

219
00:12:40,217 --> 00:12:44,377
Speaker 1: about it. Right, you can't say I served and therefore

220
00:12:44,377 --> 00:12:47,097
Speaker 1: no one's all out. How dare you criticize me to

221
00:12:47,217 --> 00:12:49,817
Speaker 1: people who are talking about policy and the future of

222
00:12:49,857 --> 00:12:52,697
Speaker 1: the country. They're allowed to have make their arguments too.

223
00:12:52,737 --> 00:12:56,697
Speaker 1: But our sponsor is Paradigm Press. Look, I think that

224
00:12:56,777 --> 00:13:00,177
Speaker 1: we are entering at once in this a century opportunity

225
00:13:00,177 --> 00:13:04,857
Speaker 1: for mainStreet investors. This AI stuff is real. The world

226
00:13:04,897 --> 00:13:09,417
Speaker 1: is changing very quickly, and politics and markets have this

227
00:13:09,697 --> 00:13:12,257
Speaker 1: effect on each other that you have to understand to

228
00:13:12,297 --> 00:13:15,137
Speaker 1: be a savvy investor. This is why I've launched a

229
00:13:15,217 --> 00:13:17,617
Speaker 1: new e newsletter called Money and Power, which I hope

230
00:13:17,657 --> 00:13:21,377
Speaker 1: you'll subscribe to our portfolio, which we publish. It's just

231
00:13:21,497 --> 00:13:24,417
Speaker 1: this is now out there. Portfolio has done amazingly well

232
00:13:24,417 --> 00:13:27,497
Speaker 1: this year of suggested investments that we have, and that's

233
00:13:28,257 --> 00:13:33,257
Speaker 1: that's just a fact. And we are pulling the big

234
00:13:33,297 --> 00:13:36,897
Speaker 1: stories out of politics in DC and applying it to

235
00:13:37,537 --> 00:13:41,537
Speaker 1: big moves in the markets, and so far it's been phenomenal.

236
00:13:42,257 --> 00:13:44,537
Speaker 1: I explain all the details of this, in fact, something

237
00:13:44,537 --> 00:13:48,257
Speaker 1: that I'm calling Manhattan two, but it meant like Manhattan

238
00:13:48,257 --> 00:13:51,737
Speaker 1: Project too, not Manhattan so much the city. I explain

239
00:13:51,817 --> 00:13:54,337
Speaker 1: all these details in an interview that is available for

240
00:13:54,377 --> 00:13:57,377
Speaker 1: you to go watch. Go to offair twenty five dot

241
00:13:57,417 --> 00:14:00,257
Speaker 1: com to watch it. That's off Air twentyfive dot com

242
00:14:00,297 --> 00:14:04,617
Speaker 1: paid for by Paradigm Press. But also I will say

243
00:14:04,617 --> 00:14:07,497
Speaker 1: this Democrats is, you know, have no sense of humor,

244
00:14:07,777 --> 00:14:10,977
Speaker 1: which is why they were so upset by the turtle thing.

245
00:14:12,417 --> 00:14:15,857
Speaker 1: There you go, the turtle thing that heg Seth shared,

246
00:14:17,017 --> 00:14:21,497
Speaker 1: which you know, I wouldn't expect the Secretary of War

247
00:14:21,577 --> 00:14:23,417
Speaker 1: to generally share stuff like that, but you know, Pie's

248
00:14:23,417 --> 00:14:23,937
Speaker 1: a funny guy.

249
00:14:23,937 --> 00:14:24,617
Speaker 4: What can I tell you?

250
00:14:25,857 --> 00:14:29,777
Speaker 1: Everyone's sick of the Democrats games with this stuff where

251
00:14:30,057 --> 00:14:34,737
Speaker 1: they decide what the boundaries of acceptable conversation are. They

252
00:14:34,777 --> 00:14:36,817
Speaker 1: think that they're in a position to dictate to the

253
00:14:36,857 --> 00:14:39,657
Speaker 1: rest of us how we can speak, not just the

254
00:14:39,657 --> 00:14:41,457
Speaker 1: positions we can take, but even the words we can

255
00:14:41,577 --> 00:14:45,057
Speaker 1: use to discuss those positions. I think people rightly get

256
00:14:45,177 --> 00:14:51,337
Speaker 1: very tired of that. Trump is a massive counter strike

257
00:14:51,377 --> 00:14:54,497
Speaker 1: against that. He is the pendulum. Trump is like a

258
00:14:54,497 --> 00:14:58,457
Speaker 1: one man pendulum of free speech smashing in the other

259
00:14:58,497 --> 00:15:02,657
Speaker 1: direction away from all of the woke nonsense the left

260
00:15:02,657 --> 00:15:07,097
Speaker 1: has pushed on us. So there's a lot to a

261
00:15:07,097 --> 00:15:08,817
Speaker 1: lot to chew on here, friends, a lot to get into.

262
00:15:08,897 --> 00:15:12,977
Speaker 1: But I think that when you, just as we've seen

263
00:15:13,137 --> 00:15:19,297
Speaker 1: in these American cities, when you start to see the

264
00:15:19,337 --> 00:15:21,497
Speaker 1: results of some of these Trump policies, it'll be harder

265
00:15:21,497 --> 00:15:25,177
Speaker 1: and harder for these idiot Democrats to take the positions

266
00:15:25,217 --> 00:15:29,137
Speaker 1: that they have, at least without getting political blowback from it.

267
00:15:29,217 --> 00:15:31,817
Speaker 1: Like the deployment of national guard into cities. Is bringing

268
00:15:31,857 --> 00:15:34,657
Speaker 1: the murder rate down. The destruction of narco boats is

269
00:15:34,697 --> 00:15:37,057
Speaker 1: going to bring down this year or give it a

270
00:15:37,057 --> 00:15:40,057
Speaker 1: twelve month cycle rights to it started late in the year,

271
00:15:40,297 --> 00:15:42,657
Speaker 1: but it is going to bring down fentonal deaths. I

272
00:15:42,697 --> 00:15:48,297
Speaker 1: think clearly, markedly, perhaps thousands of people. How many Narco boats?

273
00:15:48,337 --> 00:15:50,297
Speaker 1: And this is the question you have to ask any

274
00:15:50,297 --> 00:15:53,057
Speaker 1: Democrat with the problem is how many narco boats are

275
00:15:53,097 --> 00:15:58,337
Speaker 1: you willing to blow up to save five thousand American

276
00:15:58,457 --> 00:16:04,617
Speaker 1: lives from overdose death by people who are acting in

277
00:16:04,657 --> 00:16:08,177
Speaker 1: predatory fashion, bringing the most dangerous and addictive substance ever

278
00:16:08,217 --> 00:16:12,177
Speaker 1: known to mankind illegally into our country for the explicit

279
00:16:12,217 --> 00:16:15,737
Speaker 1: purpose of breaking our laws and poisoning our people. How

280
00:16:15,737 --> 00:16:17,577
Speaker 1: many Narco boats are you willing to blow up to

281
00:16:17,577 --> 00:16:21,297
Speaker 1: save five thousand American lives? Because I think that's where

282
00:16:21,297 --> 00:16:22,777
Speaker 1: we're heading. People are going to start to see this

283
00:16:22,897 --> 00:16:26,857
Speaker 1: calculation very differently. So that's what we got for today,

284
00:16:26,977 --> 00:16:30,537
Speaker 1: my friends on this issue, Thanks for hanging shield high today.

285
00:16:30,737 --> 00:16:33,057
Speaker 1: Behind the news stories, getting the headlines in our attention.

286
00:16:33,137 --> 00:16:35,377
Speaker 1: There's an ongoing quiet struggle in the minds of thousand

287
00:16:35,417 --> 00:16:37,737
Speaker 1: women across the country what to do with an unplanned pregnancy.

288
00:16:38,257 --> 00:16:41,057
Speaker 1: So many things are pushing them toward abortion. But there's

289
00:16:41,377 --> 00:16:44,897
Speaker 1: one organization out there, one group doing everything they can

290
00:16:45,337 --> 00:16:49,177
Speaker 1: to save lives. Preborn. Preborn clinics are out there to

291
00:16:49,257 --> 00:16:51,337
Speaker 1: save babies lives, and they start this process with a

292
00:16:51,377 --> 00:16:54,737
Speaker 1: free ultrasound to introduce mom to her baby. Over three

293
00:16:54,857 --> 00:16:56,937
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand babies have been saved in this way.

294
00:16:57,017 --> 00:17:00,937
Speaker 1: Please consider a twenty eight dollars a month donation. That's

295
00:17:00,977 --> 00:17:02,817
Speaker 1: the cost of an ultrasound. You could help save a

296
00:17:02,857 --> 00:17:06,177
Speaker 1: life every month this Christmas season? Is there a better

297
00:17:06,177 --> 00:17:09,137
