WEBVTT - Ukraine Needs Peace - April 25th, Hour 1 0:00:01.080 --> 0:00:02.920 All right, thank you, Scott Shannon, Thanks to all of 0:00:02.960 --> 0:00:06.000 you for being with us. Right down our toll free 0:00:06.120 --> 0:00:07.600 telephone number if you want to be a part of 0:00:07.640 --> 0:00:10.320 the program as eight hundred nine to four one Sean, 0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:13.119 if you would like to join us this Friday. You know, 0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:16.239 the more I've been thinking about this, and we're coming 0:00:16.320 --> 0:00:19.520 up next week early next week on Donald Trump's first 0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:25.400 hundred days in office. And when you think of everything 0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:30.560 that he is trying to accomplish at the speed of light, 0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:36.560 it is pretty spectacular. And more importantly, I don't think 0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:42.199 people really understand how deep and profound the mess that 0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:46.480 was left for him to clean up. And I don't 0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:49.559 care if it's the what is it, twelve fourteen whatever, 0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:54.480 many unvetted Biden Harris illegals that we know include known 0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:58.639 terrorists in our country. We've gotten about two hundred plus 0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:02.760 during sixty thing is the number suspected terrorists so far. 0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:05.240 We have no idea how many are here. We just 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.399 know they're here and we don't know where they are. 0:01:08.200 --> 0:01:08.920 And then you. 0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:12.720 Can add to that murderers and rapists, en cartel members, 0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:17.280 end gang members, and other violent criminals. And all right, 0:01:17.360 --> 0:01:20.360 so President Trump has in one hundred days successfully been 0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:24.440 able to pretty much steal off our border. I mean 0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:29.039 it is ninety seven percent closed now, and anybody that 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.640 gets caught, they are being sent back and it's over, 0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:35.160 and it is all. 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.279 Everything that he is doing is hard. 0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:43.600 Everything is due a bull not everything's gonna be done immediately. 0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:49.520 And finding all of these terrorists, murderers, rapists, gang members, 0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:53.360 cartel members. I don't know how you actually get to 0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:55.520 the finish line and say, Okay, we got rid of 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:57.720 all of them, because I don't think we know all 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.480 of them that here. Don't forget there's a bunch of 0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:01.440 got away. We have no idea who they are. But 0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:06.160 when people are coming from two hundred countries and they're 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:09.320 crossing our border and they were allowed in because of 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:13.519 Joe and Kamala Harris, it is mind numbing to think 0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:17.040 of the enormity of the task of cleaning up that mess. 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:22.080 And the president is, you know, is now trying to 0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:26.720 systematically get rid of all of them, and it's and. 0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:30.240 Well, you're not treating this one perfectly. What about their 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:31.240 due process? Right? 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.680 Well, if you're talk about Abregio Garcia, well at number one, 0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:37.480 he admits he's here illegally broke the law, didn't respect 0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:38.280 our law's border. 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:39.520 Sovereignties start there. 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:44.320 Then, of course, the President designated MS thirteen Trende Arragua 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:50.120 as foreign terrorist organizations and under the Alien Enemies Act. 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.800 The language in that is very clear, codified by Supreme 0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:58.959 Court ruling previously used by four presidents. The Supreme Court 0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:03.200 should uphold that president. And the fact that they are 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:05.920 more concerned about the politics, the image, the look of 0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:09.320 it is beginning to concern me somewhat, even though the 0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:12.400 President has won about five of these cases. But this 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:15.600 is not an easy thing to do. And now the 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:18.880 president also has to restore law and order and safety 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:22.320 and security and refund police and get rid of these 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:26.920 idiotic defund dismantled no bail laws, and he's working on 0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:30.440 that mess, and it is a mess. And Americans, you know, 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:33.440 we have a violent crime in this country on average 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:37.120 twenty six seconds, and that's a lot of people. The 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.200 fact that the Democrats want to focus on the rights 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:45.360 of Trende Ragua MS thirteen gang members as designated by 0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:48.720 not one but two judges in Garcia's case is a. 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:49.480 Little mind numbing. 0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:51.720 The fact that they want to focus on the rights 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:56.840 of a foreign student that was involved in all of 0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:02.760 the pro Hamas activities and taking over buildings and what else, 0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:06.920 setting up encampments and stopping Jewish students in there, you know, 0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:09.880 asking them if they're Zionists or not. And then the 0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:12.600 school's response is to tell Jewish students, you might want 0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:14.840 to stay home. It's probably not safe for you to 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:17.920 come to campus. Is not the answer. And the president's 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.919 right to think about not only cutting off their fundy. 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.359 Why did Harvard get six hundred nearly six hundred and 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.360 fifty million dollars fiscal year twenty twenty four. That's insane. 0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:30.000 They have a fifty three billion dollar endowment. All of 0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:33.960 these countries, all of these universities have billion dollar endowments. 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.239 It's it's insane. We ought not be spending a penny 0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:40.760 on it. Then you have the president having to deal 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.320 with the mess that is in Europe, the mess that 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:48.240 is in the Middle East, all of which was caused 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:51.440 by Joe Biden and even previously, if you're talking about 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.480 Ukraine and Crimea and the annexation back in what two 0:04:54.520 --> 0:05:00.320 thousand and fourteen that was caused by them, and if 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:03.320 you're in it's been ten years and I'm listening to 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:07.520 people say Donald Trump's giving in the Vladimir Putin no here. 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:10.320 It's sort of like on tariffs. You have two choices 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:15.520 on tariffs. Either you allow the establishment institutionalists that never 0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:18.800 think out of the box to just leave everything as 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:21.800 it is and somehow, you know, it's the definition of 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.839 insanity to bang your head against the wall and expect 0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:28.320 a different result. Or you draw a line in the 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:31.279 sand and say you're not going to rip off America. 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:33.960 You're not going to abuse us, You're not going to 0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:36.839 take advantage of us, especially allied countries that count on 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:39.880 US for their national security and national defense. That would 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:44.159 be European partners in Canada and so many others in 0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:50.560 Japan and Taiwan and Korea. I mean, they've they've put 0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:53.719 massive tariffs on our country and for fifty sixty years 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.279 they've they've gotten away with it, and people you know, 0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:00.320 were skittish in the stock market. Well, you have two 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:05.400 choices in that scenario. Either you allow the unfair abuse 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:10.000 of America to continue, or you take a stand, go 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:15.680 through a period of that is uncomfortable, and from that 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:22.520 vantage point, then you decide as a country that is 0:06:22.600 --> 0:06:27.520 it's worth fighting for fundamental fairness, especially with our allies. 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:30.359 Now we have economic news today that we'll share with 0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:34.960 you overseas. One overseas food producer announce one point two 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:39.120 billion in investments. Now we're near ten trillion dollars in 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:43.279 investments that have been committed only because Donald Trump has said, no, 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:47.000 we'll put tariffs on you. The Greek yogurt manufacturer, what 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:49.039 is it called Shobonni. I think you liked. I like 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:52.239 that yogurt. The blueberry is actually pretty good. They announced 0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:56.040 they're investing one point two billion building its third dairy 0:06:56.120 --> 0:07:00.400 processing plant in America, and this time and upstate New York. 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:03.360 And the project will create a thousand full time jobs. 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:06.960 And they did it to avoid tariffs that will be 0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:11.280 placed on imports that they would otherwise have. You know, 0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:14.280 you have a private equity firm expanding investments into US 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:17.680 based oil and gas and energy for investors. Remember two 0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:20.000 on the economy, we're still living under the Biden economy. 0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:22.520 We haven't even gotten reconciliation done yet, which we have 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.440 to get done, and we'll get to that too today. 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:28.520 But the enormity of the problems that the President has 0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:34.560 tackle is tackling is it's unprecedented in one hundred days. 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:37.360 And he's asked by Time magazine today, well, why you 0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:40.800 said you'd bring peace to Europe and in the day't why 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:43.880 didn't you get it done? He's been in office three months. 0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:47.200 The answer to your question is it didn't get done. 0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:50.120 But he's been on it since day one, and we're 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:51.680 as close as we've ever been. 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.080 And then he laid out rightly. 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:58.960 So you know, under Obama and Biden, that's when Crimea 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:04.000 was annexed by Russia, and Obama and Biden did nothing. 0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:08.560 When troops a few years back were amassing on the 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:14.720 Ukrainian border, Russian troops and military equipment. Biden didn't pick 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:17.120 up the phone and called Vladimir and say what the 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:21.720 hell are you doing? And if Vladimir had a legitimate, 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:27.160 somehow grievance about a territorial dispute, why not try to 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:30.400 resolve it before the invasion, knowing damn well that he's 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:34.360 not putting those troops in equipment there for nothing, and asked, well, 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.079 what happens if he invades? 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:39.200 Well, it depends if it's a minor incursion or not. 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:43.199 Okay, that didn't happen the four years Donald Trump was president, 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.600 Putin didn't make a move, and nor that President She 0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:49.880 and President She for the first time got hit with tariffs. 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:52.000 And I know this disruption. 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:54.920 I know that Donald Trump, by his very nature, he's 0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:58.000 not an institutionalist, he's not an establishment figure. 0:08:58.040 --> 0:08:59.400 He is a disruptor. 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:02.960 He's an iconoclast, and he's thinking anew and people are 0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:05.360 going to have to get used to thinking differently about 0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:10.520 issues instead of going along with policies that result in 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:14.400 massive debt and deficits, robbing from our kids and grandkids 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:21.360 being ripped off, and allowing unvetted gang members, terrorists, criminals, murderers, rapists, 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:25.480 and cartel members in our country. Now, I know that 0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:28.520 the deal there's two choices. Like I said on Taro, 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:31.160 there's two choices on tariffy. You keep getting ripped off, 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:34.960 or you challenge the system and fight for better deals 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.480 that the president has chosen, the latter of something no 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:41.000 president has done in sixty years, the same thing after 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:45.680 three years of NonStop war, which really evolved into a 0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:47.240 proxy war between the. 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.160 US and Russia. 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.800 And don't get me wrong, I think I know Putin's 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:55.760 a murdering dictator, thug and he doesn't give a damn 0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:58.280 of that. He's killing innocent men, women and children, which 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:02.160 he's been doing. He doesn't care. But with that said, 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:04.040 there's there's progress. 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:05.760 Now. They are unrealistic. 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:11.480 I'm listening to people, there's such unrealistic expectations. Well, uh, 0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:15.040 mister president, you're saying that you're gonna you're gonna tell 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.760 Ukraine to give up Crimea? What do you Crimea was 0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:22.360 gone nearly ten years ago. That happened on Obama and 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:26.600 Biden's watch. Now, what about don Bass, which was my 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:30.120 understanding an eighty percent Russian population area in some of 0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:34.120 these other regions. The thing that started this was, remember 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:37.080 they were never gonna be a member of NATO, and 0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.959 they started pushing to be a member of NATO. That 0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:44.400 was That's a trigger for Vladimir Putin in Russia. That 0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:48.160 wasn't gonna happen either. So is it gonna be the 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:55.000 best deal for Ukraine? They don't have any good options now? 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:58.160 We don't have many options either. In other words, the 0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:01.839 United States can can continue to be the proxy and 0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:04.839 fight Russia, and I don't think the American people have 0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:07.400 the appetite for that. And that was crashing and burning 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:09.760 by the end of the Biden administration, because we already 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:14.360 spent a few hundred billion dollars, you know, helping Ukraine 0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:18.360 sustain itself to the extent they were able. But there's 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:20.720 not going to be a country left if a deal 0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:23.959 is not struck. This just isn't And then why are 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:28.040 we throwing good money after bad Whether or not Europe 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:31.480 has proven that they won't step up for Ukraine to 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:36.559 the extent that would be needed to really challenge Russia militarily. 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:41.040 That's their continent, that's not ours. So is the ideal 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:43.040 going to be perfect, the deal going to be hurt? 0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:45.719 No, it's not. What is the alternative? 0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:49.800 The alternative America continues to pay money we don't have, 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:54.920 offer military assistance and basically be a proxy for Ukraine. 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.520 Or you get a deal as imperfect as it is, 0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:04.120 and whatever's left aft of Ukraine, you'll let the Ukrainians 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:08.560 run with more security guarantees and a rarer mineral deal 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:11.320 that will enrich Ukraine so they can start the process 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.200 of building back their country and bringing back population that 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:17.480 had left and droves. That's pretty much your options here. 0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:21.920 And oh, you're good, that means putin wins. No, It 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.640 doesn't mean putin wins. It means that the world wins 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:29.240 because this ends. It's the damage was done under Biden 0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:34.480 and under Obama and Biden Trump inherited this mess, just 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.880 like he's inheriting the mess in the Middle East in 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.760 October seventh and inheriting the mess of the Iranians now 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:44.080 being filthy rich because Joe Biden turned a blind eyed 0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:46.280 to the sanctions that Trump had in place that were 0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:49.880 bankrupting them and as a result, they were able to 0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:53.920 foment more terror in the region and help PLoP plan 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:59.080 and scheme what happened on October seven, twenty three, and furthermore, 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:04.559 fun terror with Islamic Jihad and Hisballah in the at 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:08.360 Lebanon in the north and from the Juti rebels and 0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:11.520 then fire their own ballistic missiles into Israel. 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:12.520 That's all. 0:13:12.840 --> 0:13:16.760 This all lies at the feet of the failure, the mess, 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:22.040 the disaster that was Joe Biden's presidency, and every American 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:25.760 that is murdered and raped and a victim of violent crime. 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.480 And if there's ever a terror attacked by a Biden 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:33.720 Harris unvetted illegal, it's all blood on their hands. But 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:37.760 they'll want to blame Trump, and if the Iranians get nukes, 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:40.200 it's because they had the money that Joe Biden allowed 0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:43.760 that to have happened, when meanwhile they were probably sitting 0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:46.720 on the verge of regime change because they were so 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:50.640 broke becaus Donald Trump's sanctions were so effective and Biden 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:51.559 didn't keep them up. 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:55.200 I mean, so every one of these things is hard. 0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:59.439 It is complicated, and I'm like, did Time magazine, this 0:13:59.559 --> 0:14:02.920 war's been going on for years. When he said he's 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:04.720 gonna get on it from day one and he's gonna 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:08.480 resolve this. He's committed to resolving it. He's doing his 0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:13.360 level best. Ukraine doesn't really have a hand to play here, 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:17.720 so Donald Trump's gotta gotta figure out how to thread 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:20.480 that needle with somebody that has no cards in the game. 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.840 Now do I think the it's horrible what's happened to Ukraine? 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:25.280 I do. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:27.920 I think it's worse that Joe Biden allowed it and 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:30.400 didn't lift a finger to try and prevent it. I 0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:33.400 think it's even worse that Europe doesn't protect their own continent. 0:14:34.160 --> 0:14:36.160 I think it's worse that America was put in the 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.760 position of being a proxy fighter against them. I want 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:42.320 to play for you. I mean, these are such weird 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:46.120 times we're leaving living in I mean, it's it's bordering 0:14:46.160 --> 0:14:49.000 on insanity in the country, especially with the left. The 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:55.200 Democratic mayor of Milwaukee, some guy named Cavalier Johnson, just 0:14:55.280 --> 0:15:00.360 criticized the Trump administration. Why for the for arrest the 0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:05.640 judge in this case, Hannah Dugan, for obstructing Ice from 0:15:05.760 --> 0:15:11.200 arresting in illegal accused of domestic violence because it's quote 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:17.960 scaring immigrant communities and it's quote making our communities less safe. Now, 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:24.200 explain to me how removing somebody who's accused the domestic 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:29.280 violence is scaring people and making your community less safe. 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:31.400 It's not like you're making your community more safe to 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:35.840 me anyway. Listen to this, guys, it's complete idiot. 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:38.520 Defend it is ordered. There'd be a court appearance that 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:42.560 didn't happen in this case. I think what happened here 0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:45.160 was just show voting. They're just trying to have this 0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:47.560 show of force, and in the process of doing this 0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.120 in a courthouse where people need to go for corporate seedings, 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.640 they're scaring people away from participating in the process. So 0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:56.240 if they are witnessed to a crime or something of 0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:58.760 the sort. They're not going to go and participate, and 0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:01.360 that makes our community less safe. So the issue is 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:05.080 with how the arrest happened, not necessarily that they're recod investigator. Again, 0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:08.200 I don't know all the things that happened there, but 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:10.480 I'm saying that the way that they went about this, 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:14.240 in this ham handed, haphazard way that this administration has 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:18.880 been doing since day one, it's driving people away or 0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:21.960 has potential to drive people away from participating in corporate seedings, 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:23.400 which makes our community less safe. 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:27.960 Oh sorry, to actually enforce the laws of our country. 0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:31.640 If liberals really feel this strongly about it, they should 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:34.960 you get back in power and have open borders, which 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:37.800 is pretty much what they codified into law. Anyway, I 0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:40.800 still make the case and stand by my belief that 0:16:40.840 --> 0:16:45.640 if you're aiding in a betting criminal illegal immigrants and 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:49.360 creating sanctuary status for them and all these states and 0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:53.560 municipalities that allow them to get legal drivers' licenses, you're 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:57.480 aiding and a betting law breaking, and in many cases, 0:16:57.520 --> 0:17:00.640 I would argue, you're involved in human trafficking. And the 0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:02.640 fact that these states have you know, oh they all 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.800 started out them, they're not going to cooperate with Ice. Well, 0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:08.119 they're cooperating with ICE. But I go back to what 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:13.040 I said before. Every single thing that Donald Trump inherited 0:17:13.080 --> 0:17:16.679 here is a mess. What do you do with faulve 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:22.040 fourteen fifteen million unvetted Biden Harris illegals, and among them 0:17:22.520 --> 0:17:27.160 are known terrorists and murderers, rapists, cartel members, gang members, 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:29.439 and find them and deport them. He's done a good 0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:31.399 job of secure in the border, and they're doing a 0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:36.520 good job in finding these people in spite of politicians, judges, 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:39.080 others getting in the way and then law fair and 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:42.800 running to do some judge shopping and get courts to 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:46.040 stop them from doing the job that they were elected 0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:49.879 to do and assert the power of the president constitutionally 0:17:49.960 --> 0:17:53.600 authorized power. I mean, it's very very difficult. I mean, 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.359 people want if you think you're going to get a 0:17:57.560 --> 0:17:59.840 if you think you're going to get a clean land 0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.560 as it relates to Russia and Ukraine and Europe, good 0:18:02.640 --> 0:18:05.760 luck to you, because I don't think that's. 0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:06.000 In the cards. 0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:10.680 You know, the reality is President Trump was not responsible. 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:15.240 He was not president when Vladimir Putin was amassing troops 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:17.159 and military equipment on the border with Ukraine. 0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:18.040 That was Joe Biden. 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:22.240 He's not responsible what happened in twenty fourteen and when 0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:26.320 the annexation of Crimea took place. Now it's either his 0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:32.159 choice that he gets to He either continues to be 0:18:32.200 --> 0:18:38.680 the proxy fighter against Putin and Russia, or option B 0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:43.159 is Donald Trump says, well, we need a negotiated settlement 0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:45.760 because Europe's not going to do it, and there's no 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:49.720 good answer here because Russia is not going to give back. 0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:53.040 Land that is in their minds. 0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:56.960 I think, in many cases wrongly realized as theirs. They 0:18:56.960 --> 0:19:00.679 feel they have territorial rights to such It wasn't the 0:19:00.720 --> 0:19:03.480 right way to go about it. Putin's a murdering dictator, 0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:07.679 thug I will. I'll give props to the Ukrainian people. 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:11.080 They fought bravely, they fought valiantly, but they were fighting 0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:14.720 with our military equipment and our money. And other countries 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:16.880 did contribute, but not to the extent that we did. 0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:19.280 So there's not a real good choice here. 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:19.480 Now. 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:22.399 The Mayor of Kiev interestingly sounds a lot more interested 0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:25.040 in reaching a peace deal with Russia than Zelenski is. 0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:29.119 The Mayor of Kiev said one of the scenarios to 0:19:29.160 --> 0:19:34.040 give up territory. It's not fair, but for peace, maybe 0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:36.480 temporary peace, maybe it can be a solution. 0:19:37.600 --> 0:19:37.960 He said. 0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:41.520 The Ukrainian people would never accept occupation by Russia. 0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:44.720 So either they go they'll go back to war. 0:19:45.800 --> 0:19:48.920 And my prediction is Putin will win that war because 0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:50.879 I don't think that Europe is going to do what 0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:53.760 would be needed to stop Putin from winning that war. 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:54.359 I just don't. 0:19:55.200 --> 0:19:58.959 And the United States has nearly forty trillion dollars in debt, 0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:02.679 and we've got to get our finances back in order. 0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:04.719 We need to build up our own defenses. We need 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:08.120 to prepare for the next generation of warfare, especially when 0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:13.000 China and Russia have hypersonics and other technologies on the 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:18.119 horizon then and we're falling behind quickly. Anyway, this is 0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:24.760 you've got two intractable global security problems that he inherited 0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:30.320 here and and he just isn't an answer. And the 0:20:30.359 --> 0:20:32.200 funny thing is if they do come up with a 0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:35.560 deal that is not ideal, because there is no ideal answer. 0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:38.320 If you think the ideal answer is well boll Putin 0:20:38.320 --> 0:20:40.400 will just give in and he'll say, Okay, I'm going. 0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:41.040 To leave now. 0:20:41.640 --> 0:20:44.080 And I'm going to pull back from Crimea and don 0:20:44.119 --> 0:20:48.040 Bas in all these areas. You are dreaming that war 0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:51.679 will continue and the Ukrainians will want more US than 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:55.040 European money, and then and then God only knows how 0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:59.520 it ends. Now the president now also inherited from Biden 0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:05.960 and Borders, you know, known terrorists, cartel members, gang members, murderers, rapist. 0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:07.680 All right, that's not bad, that's bad enough. 0:21:09.000 --> 0:21:11.600 You know, in terms of our own's national security, it 0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:16.439 was the biggest preventable national security disaster in our country's history. 0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:21.000 Then he has to inherit the disaster in Gaza, in 0:21:21.119 --> 0:21:25.040 the disaster that is Iran, and according to published reports 0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:28.480 and public information, they're on the precipice of having a 0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:32.280 nuclear weapon. Now he's got to make a really tough decision. 0:21:33.000 --> 0:21:36.760 He's asking an interview as well on Friday, and it's 0:21:36.760 --> 0:21:41.000 Old Time magazine that he will very willingly lead the 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:46.120 US attack into attacking Iran's nuclear facilities if the regime 0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:50.200 does not make a deal to stop their program. He's 0:21:50.200 --> 0:21:51.560 pretty unequivocal about it. 0:21:52.320 --> 0:21:52.560 Now. 0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:55.760 He's optimistic that he can make a deal too. He 0:21:55.880 --> 0:22:00.800 believes he's the consummate deal maker and hopefully in both 0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:03.760 places he will be successful. It's not a given. But 0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:06.720 he's trying awfully hard, and he has his envoys trying hard, 0:22:06.760 --> 0:22:10.040 and his cabinet members trying hard. He added that he 0:22:10.080 --> 0:22:12.680 had not stopped Israel from attacking Iran on their own, 0:22:12.720 --> 0:22:17.480 but made it, but had not made it comfortable for 0:22:17.600 --> 0:22:19.920 them to make that choice, he said. Asked if Net 0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:21.840 and Yaho would drag the US into the war, he 0:22:21.880 --> 0:22:25.520 actually said no, the US would lead the effort. You 0:22:25.560 --> 0:22:29.320 asked if Net and Yaho would drag me in like No, 0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:32.320 I'd go like, I'd go on willingly. No, I'd go 0:22:32.400 --> 0:22:36.080 in very willingly if we can't get a deal. If 0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:38.480 we don't make a deal, I'll be leading the pack. 0:22:39.520 --> 0:22:39.720 Now. 0:22:39.720 --> 0:22:42.920 Why is he right on that and other naysayers wrong 0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:47.399 is because then you're looking at radical Islamis of the 0:22:47.440 --> 0:22:50.600 worst kind, that believe in the Califake. You know, the 0:22:50.680 --> 0:22:55.240 twelfth of the mom con converter Die ideology. Strap bombs 0:22:55.359 --> 0:23:00.520 on on on young kids and have them and ate them, 0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:03.000 and kill innocent men, women and children, and promise them 0:23:03.040 --> 0:23:05.719 seventy two virgins and heven the people that have been 0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:07.680 chanting death to Israel, death to America. 0:23:07.760 --> 0:23:10.760 So again a hard problem. House. 0:23:10.800 --> 0:23:14.000 Republicans are right on the issue. We've got to spend 0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:18.720 more on national defense. They're planning to increase defense spending 0:23:18.720 --> 0:23:21.560 by one hundred and fifty billion in their budget. That 0:23:21.640 --> 0:23:25.360 would be the Reconciliation, one big beautiful bill which will 0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:28.120 codify the president's you know, the beginning of his agenda 0:23:28.160 --> 0:23:32.359 on the economy, taxes, defense, border security, and that's going 0:23:32.440 --> 0:23:35.560
