Welcome to the weekend news magazine.
1:31
This Sunday, it is Malcolm Alloud here and privileged to be with you as always, my fellow Americans.
1:36
We're going to do it here on the top of the broadcast here with two very, very interesting gentlemen.
1:40
Privileged to have them both here.

Standup America U.S.

dot org.
2:01
Him and General McEnerny have really been a movement there doing a lot of things to get people involved in freedom and what that means, especially our younger generations here.
2:11
And privileged to have on a gentleman, John Q Naimi.
2:16
And he is, let me tell you a little bit about John here.
2:19
He's the he was born in Iran, by the way.
2:22
He's the founder and chairman of a couple of things.
2:25
Chamco International, but the big one I want to talk about is Cyrus Force.
2:30
And this is uh he he's been a uh a loud voice uh with these efforts of freedom and democracy in Iran.
2:37
And of course, Americans know too well all too well what that means.
2:40
Uh but we'll I'm gonna get a sense from John of uh what that looks like in Iran on the ground here.
2:46
Uh he has uh really dedicated his life to trying to bring Iran back uh as a as a free nation and uh welcome both of you gentlemen to the broadcasts and uh let's get started.
2:58
We'll talk a little bit about the Cyrus force in a moment as well.
3:01
But uh John, let me start with you, please, on this here uh from a sense of uh the the power struggle that's happening here in in Iran.
3:11
Uh so let me explain.
3:12
Pete Heggseth, the Secretary of War called the Iranian leadership rats who have gone underground.
3:18
I guess I want to ask you, knowing the the radicalization of the people there and the regime itself uh and the sun now, can this be defeated?
3:30
I mean, uh many Americans are not convinced it can be, but can they defeat this radicalized culture and how would it happen, John?
3:39
Uh well first, thank you very much for having me in your program.
3:44
Uh to answer your question, sir.
3:46
Yes, that can be defeated.
3:49
The mullahs are rat, as Mr.
3:52
Hagsett mentioned.
3:54
He is absolutely correct.
3:56
And at this time, the people of Iran, they are celebrating passing out cookies to be bombarded by United States and Israel army together of the regime of the terrorism for the past 47 years, that they've been terrorizing the entire world, especially their own people.
4:17
And in the past month, according to Fox News, they kill 42,000 people, but my information is that they kill over 147,000 people.
4:29
Wow.
4:30
Injure over 400,000 people, and in prison, over 300,000 people.
4:37
And also the most brutal thing that this regime do, they go to the hospital and find the patient in the deathbed, and they shoot them in the head, and they also shoot the nurse and the doctors at the same time.
4:53
And I never ever heard of any animals uh like this in my entire life.
4:58
John, these these numbers you just said, we've heard high numbers from military experts on the program here, yes indeed.
5:06
But numbers that more like between 30 and 50,000 tops.
5:10
We've never heard numbers like you just uh spouted out there.
5:14
How are those numbers true?
5:15
How do we know they're true?
5:17
And how do you know they're true?
5:18
Okay, sir.
5:19
I have a people.
5:21
First of all, the Cyrus Force was formed with myself and the help of the General Valeli, and Dr.
5:30
Sherry Raz, Mr.
5:31
Joe Kaufman, and uh Mr.
5:34
Sean McCloskey, and uh uh Orusha Ashrafi and many other uh love uh peace, the peace uh loving people in the America.
5:46
And at the Cyrus Force, we've been fighting for uh I've been uh fighting that for over 47 years, and at the Cyrus Force we've been fighting Iran for over 17 years.
5:58
And at this time, CIRS force have a proxies on every one of their state in Iran, nationwide.
6:06
And we have the information very accurate.
6:10
One of our members go to uh place that they keep the dead body to find out his cousin.
6:17
There was over 460 people dead, over 460 in that one location.
6:24
And there is 260 different locations in Iran that they're holding the dead body.
6:30
You do your math.
6:31
460 times 27.
6:36
Okay.
6:36
Wow, it's incredible.
6:38
Absolutely incredible.
6:39
Uh, General Paul Vallile, let me uh I want to stay on the radicalized culture moment, uh, General, and ask you.
6:45
Uh I mean, I I hear what John's saying, but a lot of people don't believe this radicalized culture can be defeated because it's it's it's buried too deep in the minds of many, many Iranians.
6:56
And so, you know, there are those who are celebrating and peace loving for sure, and that you know, before 1979, there was a Western flavor to the culture there.
7:06
But uh really truly, how how do you root this radicalized culture out?
7:10
How do we convince America that that can be done?
7:13
And do you really think regime change could be possible?
7:17
Uh, because a lot of people are doubting it right now with with the sun and with the and we don't even know if he's alive yet, or do you know?
7:23
Have you heard anything about that?
7:25
Yeah, I have.
7:25
We've been looking at it very closely at the Stand Up America U.S.
7:29
Foundation and our uh intel sources.
7:33
But uh the people are still uh hiding in their homes to a great degree, uh, waiting for the the police that are in every city, every town there was odd.
7:45
And what uh they're afraid of if they come out, they're gonna get shot because the regime still is in power.
7:51
I would say they've been probably defeated the regime almost 80 to 90 percent now, but there are those uh then the IRGC and the Army that uh have not been taken out yet.
8:03
So there's work to do, and I think that'll be very shortly because they can't be sustained anymore.
8:09
We've shut down their banking system, we've shut down their oil production income.
8:14
I don't know what they're doing on food and how they're getting food for the populations, but like uh President Trump says, Trump says it's very, very close.
8:23
And uh shutting down uh Carg Island uh and opening up the Sea of Hormuz is what we're waiting on now, and that's gonna change oil prices probably within the week.
8:35
They're very, very close.
8:36
The Navy's working on uh finding any of the mines that may be uh down uh deep in the waters of uh of the of the straits there.
8:45
But we have the technology to do that, but it takes time to ensure there's no uh mines that are lingering, you know, 10 or 15, 20 feet below the surface of the water that can strike any ships.
8:57
And also they still have uh maybe 10% of their drones left, which are positioned off the shore there uh in Iran that can be fired at any ships going through the uh through the straits there.
9:10
So I think that's uh the situation.
9:12
But we've destroyed uh 90 targets on Carg Island military targets.
9:17
We intentionally did not hit any of the oil production facilities there.
9:22
Right, but but Trump has threatened if they continue to bombard uh the straits there and uh that he would uh that would be jeopardized.
9:32
Do you do you agree with that strategy that he's talking about?
9:37
Well, the the question is what do you do with the the oil uh facilities there?
9:41
And we should not touch those.
9:43
In fact, our foundation recommended to Trump that they get the Saudis uh right across the way there uh to take over and protect uh Carga Island uh with some of their uh infantry and uh special ops forces.
9:56
Could that happen, General?
9:57
Would that could that happen?
9:59
Absolutely.
10:00
You think the Saudis would do it?
10:02
Well, I don't know.
10:03
That's that's a big question where we'll do it.
10:06
But they should let's involve the UAE.
10:08
They've been hit by Iran, these uh nations there.
10:11
And uh they should put some of their forces to secure Carg Island.
10:15
That would be my recommended recommendation.
10:18
Let me step back now, General, and ask you something from a from a military standpoint.
10:23
Looking at everything that has been executed to date right now uh with Trump and uh commander in chief and the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, and of course the uh uh General Raising Cain, who's uh really become very popular.
10:38
Uh, how do you rate this whole thing?
10:40
Are you are you elated at uh the the I'm talking from militarily now from the mechanisms of how they've tackled this thing, or do you have any criticisms?
10:50
No, I don't have any criticisms.
10:52
They planned it all out, and uh they knew Carg Island uh and the strange would be a um um difficult, and that's of course what's remaining.
11:02
We've done away with their Air Force, basically Navy's been all defeated.
11:07
Uh the uh uh command and control headquarters uh have been hit.
11:14
Uh we've taken out, I don't know how many hundreds of uh the hierarchy of leadership uh within Iran.
11:21
So uh they're on um uh I think they're on the way to uh being starved out too, in some ways, not only from uh ammunition and other sources, but I'm I'm really I don't know how they're getting any food other than what's produced inside Iran.
11:37
Yeah, there's got to be a lot of struggle.
11:39
There's got to be a lot of struggle out there with the Iranian people as well, I would imagine.
11:43
Yeah, yeah.
11:44
There has to be has to be.
11:45
And as you say, people now are not coming out so much because those police and their those divisions are on the streets, uh literally shoot people in the head uh if they know that you're part of any uh uh you know movement here, any part of the movement at all.
12:00
But uh all right.
12:02
So moving forward now with what happens here.
12:05
Uh let's say uh John, let's say this all goes off.
12:09
Um and uh that uh okay, the regime has been completely defeated.
12:14
Let's say this does happen, and then the Iranian people start to come out, or something starts to shift in Iran.
12:20
What happens now?
12:21
There's been a lot of conversation.
12:23
Um Trump has held his his cards pretty close to his chest, which he normally does with with things like this as to who would take over.
12:32
And so we hear much about this uh Rez of Pahlavi, uh, who was the son of the Shah of Iran, the last Shah of Iran, and uh uh 1979, and uh uh he is um been fighting for this as well.
12:47
And and I understand you you've met him before.
12:49
Tell us who about him, Pahlavi, what you think about him.
12:52
Is he uh a potential figurehead for this thing moving forward, or is there someone else, or do you see something else happening here?
13:00
Uh well, Malcolm, for your information, I helped Reza Pahlavi for the past three decades in my life.
13:08
Um matter of fact, the Cyrus Force was formed in Florida with Reza Pahlabi sitting around the table.
13:17
Okay.
13:18
And inside of Iran, the CIRS force have the crew of over 3,000 of the old retired planner of army, navy and the air force of the Shah regime, which it was the number five army in the world.
13:35
And right now, all these people they're helping the CIRS force, but on the background, on the hiding, because if anybody find this people, they're gonna shoot them in the head in a heartbeat.
13:46
Right.
13:47
Now, number one, I want to thank President Trump and Prime Minister Natinyahu to take the position to do whatever they're doing, and on behalf of 82 to 85 percent of Iranian people, I thanks them for doing what they're doing.
14:05
Yes, this regime is gonna fall.
14:08
Matter of fact, the regime is under uh uh fall right now at this time, but these people, they're not uh educated army people, they're not educated, the diplomat people, they're a bunch of lunatic, and they just uh do anything they have to do to survive.
14:29
And the leader, Moshtabo Khamenei, I believe that he's in coma.
14:35
You think he's in a coma?
14:36
I believe so, because he got hit, and uh there was a picture of him that I don't have it with me at this time, that he's uh bundled up with the uh all kind of uh support in the hospital, and also for the past five days, they haven't seen uh him in any place that he's alive.
14:58
Right, right.
14:58
Uh I don't know if you see that movie, Weekend of Bernie.
15:02
You remember that movie?
15:03
Oh, yes.
15:04
Oh, yes, yeah.
15:04
So they're playing the weekend of Bernie here.
15:08
Weekend of Bernie's week, yeah.
15:10
Weekend at Tehran's, huh?
15:11
Um, John, um, what you say there now with him, the coma thing.
15:16
Let me touch on that a minute here.
15:17
As I understand it, when they hit that room and others, there uh the families, the wives, the kids, there were a lot of people that were killed.
15:25
And we uh many people were wondering how he would have survived that, assuming he was there, and it seemed like they were all kind of there.
15:33
Um so somehow I guess he might have, but your your reports are there's that he is uh pretty bad off, then yeah.
15:41
He is very bad off, and also talking about the Iranian people, they are uh fighting with their stone and uh stick in their hand against the machine gun, and that's not fair.
15:55
And at the Cyrus Force, we have a power to go in, boots on the ground.
16:00
We don't need one American or Israeli soldier.
16:04
We can plan that, and if President Trump is listening to this show, get in touch with me.
16:11
I'm John Q Naimi, and he can get in touch with me, and I meet with him 15 minutes and make his life hundred times easier than what it is today.
16:22
But in the meantime, I tanks American army, Israeli army to do what they're doing, and in the Iranian uh area, they probably have 12 to 14 percent enemies, but they have 82 to 85 percent uh people loving them and they're behind them and they're willing to do anything uh for the American army and Israeli army to get rid of the Ayatollah's regime and take the country in their hand.
16:53
And also at the Cyrus Force, uh I have the mission statement that is right in my website, Cyrus Force.org.
17:02
Anybody can go and read our mission statement, and that is to free Iranian people.
17:08
I'm sorry, first get rid of the Ayatollah regime, then change the constitution, which the constitution of Iran is asking in eighth sections of it for the destruction of America and Israel.
17:24
So what for the senators and the Congress people in the United States don't understand?
17:30
Please go and read the constitution of Iran.
17:34
And I wrote the book and I handed to many of the senators and the congressmen about two years ago.
17:41
And another issue that we have is the sleeping cell.
17:45
The sleeping cell, I've been uh talking about it for the past six years.
17:50
Now, all of a sudden, in the past two days in the radio and TV, they're talking about it.
17:55
And the sleeping cells are the people like Mr.
17:58
Khabari, he still three billion dollars bring to Canada.
18:02
He's one of their sleeping cells.
18:04
And anytime he wants to kill John Naemi, okay, Mr.
18:08
This is 100,000, go kill John Naemi.
18:10
And they do that for the money.
18:12
So what I asked of the senators that to bring this constitution problem in the Senate and ask for the smart sanction.
18:22
And what I mean by a smart sanction to uh I'm sure the Treasury department, they have a account of all these people that they're stealing 3 billion, 8 billion, 15 billion.
18:37
Over 1.6 trillion dollars of the Iranian stolen money is in England, Canada, United States, Australia, and many places all uh in the world.
18:49
So if the Senate go after them and do their smart sanction and get the uh money of all this Ayatollah oligarch frozen, then they don't have money to pay uh to the sleeping cell, such as happening a few days ago in Virginia and in Michigan.
19:07
Right.
19:08
And one other example here, Mr.
19:11
Khabari stole three billion dollars and bring to Canada.
19:15
Mr.
19:15
Trudeau in a sterov he asked Mr.
19:17
Khabary, where did you steal three billion to bring to my country?
19:21
He's giving him a medal of honor.
19:24
Yeah, yeah.
19:25
All right, I want to talk about the sleeper cells just a moment.
19:27
What you just bring up here is a very important point, John.
19:30
And uh, you know, um we knew that there were two two possibilities here, some lone wolf attacks, like we've been seeing, some of these small little incidents, okay, got it.
19:41
And then this more sophisticated sleeper cell uh that are here that would rise.
19:46
And we've seen a lot of Iranian nationals and a lot of other types of country nationals from both the Middle East, China, other areas of Europe, uh, came in here from those four years of open borders.
19:57
Uh so we don't know where all these people are.
20:00
At.
20:01
How concerned are you and should Americans be?
20:05
And again, there's a you know, there's been a lot of talk in the last many days that would the um Iranian uh government there try to unleash some of these.
20:17
But I I would imagine if they could have done it, they would have done it already.
20:20
I I would guess, and unless there's something we don't know.
20:24
Uh I don't know that they have any control anymore uh with anything.
20:28
So, how concerned are we or uh are you with this potential of sleeper cells here?
20:34
Uh I am personally very concerned for the past five, six years, and I wrote the book that called the roadmap.
20:43
And uh the information of the sleeping cell, it is in that book.
20:48
And right now, we can first of all in New York in California, in London, in Paris, in Germany, all over the world, you can see that these people, hundreds of thousands of them, they come to the street and protecting the Mollas and Oyatollahs and Hamas and Hezbollah, even in United States in Newborn, Michigan in California in New York.
21:12
Yeah, they are doing that all over the place.
21:15
And these are the people that I call them a sleeping cell.
21:18
And they are slowly waking up, and even though their uh supreme leader Ayatollah Khomene is dead, now they're playing uh weekend of Burney and put his son in place to do anything they want.
21:32
These people, they are not educated, they are not the official of the army, navy, or air force.
21:38
They just are a loot and lunatic that after Khomene comes in power in 1979, they become a general without even seeing the West Point or any uh uh army school in inside of Iran.
21:55
So these are a lunatic people, they kill, they kill, they kill, because they don't have no place else to go, and they're fighting to the last drop in their body, uh, and they're killing anybody comes their way.
22:08
And in the meantime, Israeli government uh is paying for it, uh, the poor Israeli people, Jewish people in Michigan in Virginia in the past two weeks, and you see what's happening in the Senate.
22:24
Yep, yeah.
22:24
Well, yeah, you're right, exactly.
22:26
Yeah, General Paul Vellile, you know, uh John brings up a very, very good point about all of this.
22:30
You know, uh it's one of the arguments when you see the division, which I do want to talk about, uh, the division in MAGA, and you know what that's all about, uh, General uh uh so this division where a lot of people say we signed up for America first, meaning no foreign conflicts, no foreign intervention, uh, stay out of it, which Trump said he would.
22:50
Uh, and there is this big division that's happening in our country where people just don't support this kind of a thing.
22:56
It's really a split situation.
22:58
There's gonna be very little leeway the president will have to go much further.
23:02
And if there's ever any uh notion, you know what I'm talking about, General.
23:06
If there's any notion of boots on the ground, you know that is that is a no, that is a game changer that cannot happen.
23:12
I assume the president surely knows that, that we don't see him putting boots on the ground there.
23:16
If he did, that would change the whole uh spectrum of this thing quickly.
23:20
So, with all of this, with what John says about these potential sleeper cells and this and this, what are you hearing out there?
23:27
Uh uh concerns at all that you have that uh something might happen, or do you think things are out uh in control with the CIA FBI and that uh uh that they have a handle on any of this?
23:38
Well, I think uh in the past we've looked at these sleeper cells as groups of people that had pre-positioned arms in different parts of the United States.
23:47
I think that's a fallacy now.
23:49
I think it's uh you do uh yeah, I see uh these loan uh uh people doing it uh that may be paid or incentivized, but uh uh there's basically no leadership or able to push any money any further uh into any of these cells in the United States.
24:08
So I think uh uh that image of groups uh attacking uh different cities and that I don't I think you know you might be right, General.
24:17
You really might be right with what you say because uh I think something would have happened already if I do too.
24:22
Yeah, absolutely.
24:24
Okay, all right.
24:24
Absolutely, yeah.
24:25
It's too late now for them to do anything.
24:27
You bring up a good point.
24:28
I hadn't considered what you're saying, but I think it's a damn good point for people to hear.
24:32
So maybe we luck out in that particular case.
24:35
I don't know.
24:35
But as you know, General, that's not going to stop the lone wolves.
24:38
Those are always gonna be because people get radicalized on online, they do other things.
24:43
I mean, screwballs are everywhere.
24:44
I mean, that's that's just gonna happen, isn't it?
24:46
You know, that's that's right.
24:47
Yeah.
24:48
Now uh, so you know, you know what's interesting, General.
24:53
I want to talk to you on too.
24:54
We talk about this division within MAGA, and I and I want to ask you a little more about that.
24:58
How how will this play within the MAGA base?
25:00
Because you see, John brings up an interesting point.
25:03
You he spoke about Dearborn, he spoke about California, he spoke about New York City, these areas that are becoming well, for a better word, quasi-radicalized here in our country.
25:12
You can see the move of this radicalized Islam where it's happening here, as John was saying, all around the world in these key areas.
25:20
You know, there's not enough focus put on that.
25:23
You look at the the people we have in Congress that fall under that category as well.
25:27
So to a point there are breadcrumbs already here in our country, but I see it seems to me, uh, General, a lot of Americans are ignorant of that or don't really understand the danger of it, or just think that America is too big and powerful that it doesn't matter.
25:40
What do you say to that, please?
25:42
Well, if you go back to your statement about MAGA, MAGA is not split.
25:47
That's a fabric of uh somebody's imagination.
25:50
Okay.
26:01
But I think it's a very small percentage.
26:03
MAG is supporting president uh to the nth degree as far as as I can discern.
26:08
Um so uh this thing that's uh put out by some of these uh people on television has uh there it's it's what I call created chaos in their minds.
26:20
Uh and they they love to quote the American people, well, MAGA is against uh a lot of MAGAs against Trump.
26:27
That's not true, that's all made up.
26:29
So we have to start dealing with reality and what the truth is out there.
26:33
And uh at this point in time, uh we we take on the Western hemisphere to clean it out, and that's what we're doing.
26:41
We just wrote an article, for example, on Cuba that we should maybe look at it uh as we do uh Puerto Rico, some kind of a uh territory.
26:53
Right.
26:54
That's what we've recommended to Trump on Cuba, but so many things going on.
26:58
But uh we have sent a message uh to the world, we're not gonna tolerate evil.
27:03
No other country is taking on the evil of the world.
27:06
Yeah, yeah.
27:07
No other country.
27:09
Yeah.
27:09
And uh that's what Trump is destined to do.
27:11
We got to get rid of these evil regimes, and they're just disturbing everything.
27:16
Well, and which hold on a good point, General, because uh here's the here's the antidote to many others who might think that is like how do you have an America first, or how do you have a base that can do that if you've got people that are trying to kill you or come after you or try to destroy the country?
27:32
I guess that is a uh that that is a point of view, isn't it?
27:36
Yeah, and and uh MAGA people are supporting uh uh Trump and uh trying to uh return America to greatness again.
27:44
That's what MAGA's not a military organization.
27:47
Yeah, may have military uh supporters, but uh it's strictly a political organization that tries to bring uh reality back to the United States and support the Trump across the board.
27:59
Yeah, I would say to you, uh I like what you just say here, but let me add to it, General.
28:03
I would say to you as well that MAGA is definitely a political uh movement within, but it but it is a political movement that has swallowed the Republican Party whole, make America great again, has become the core central power force in the Republican Party.
28:18
Uh General, just as the radical left, the crazy ones have became the central power physical force in the Democrat Party.
28:25
You understand both parties have changed, right?
28:27
Oh, absolutely.
28:29
Yeah, yeah, that's what's happened here.
28:30
And so that there's your MAGA right there.
28:33
And it has taken the the grand old poo-bah, the grand old party has been snuffed out a bit, just as the uh uh the the Democrats have.
28:41
Um it's all yeah, it has all changed here.
28:45
So you bring us some interesting points about MAGA and all of that.
28:47
Very, very fascinating.
28:48
Uh John, in our last few moments here, um, so uh the next few steps, give give Americans some idea right now, one, two, three, four.
28:58
Uh, and I mean, this has got to be a very big moment for you, Cyrus Force and and all of your relations with this movement you've really dedicated your life to.
29:08
And I know you've spoken to a lot of the congressmen and senators.
29:11
I've seen all the photos, I've seen what you've been doing.
29:13
And so you you speak true.
29:15
I mean, everything you say is accurate.
29:17
So it put this all in a nutshell for us.
29:20
Uh, where we are right now, you've got to be thrilled with where things are at.
29:24
You wouldn't have, I mean, come on, you wouldn't have imagined this a year or two ago that this was going to be the moment that he would have tore Iran right apart, right at the seams.
29:32
And uh, so maybe it is a new day for these people.
29:36
Uh well, at this time, we are in the best position with what American army and Israeli army doing inside of Iran.
29:45
And the next thing is we have to help the Iranian people to win this battle and take their country to their own hand.
29:54
And Cyrez forces dealing and with a lot of individuals inside of Iran.
30:00
To do that.
30:01
I have one message for my beautiful American friends.
30:06
USA, wake up today.
30:09
Tomorrow is too late.
30:11

30:19
Go look at the Paris.

30:25
Paris used to be one of the most beautiful city in the world.
30:30

30:33

30:35

30:43
They are fanatic.
30:44
And they have a FETWA by the Supreme Leader that wants the Supreme Leader make a fetal that they have to go against the United States of America.
30:56
There is two billion.
30:58
I'm sorry, I there are two billion Muslim, that 35% of them, they're fanatic lunatic.
31:06
And once the FETFA come from the Ayatollah Supreme Leader, they have to do that.
31:12
They have to go against America.
31:14
No, American people.
31:16
This is not the America that I come in in the late 60s and I fall in love with.
31:21
This is change.
31:23
Take your country back, as President Donald Trump is trying to do.
31:28

31:33

Great conversations today.
36:14
And we're going to continue right now.
36:15
The economy is front and center for a lot of people.
36:18
Obviously, it it radiates from what's happening in the Middle East, of course.
36:22
It's a part of that.
36:24
Energy is always a part of the story.
36:26
But it goes further than that, actually, with other things that are happening.
36:30
And uh, so you know the question really becomes uh can the country uh uh sail through these rough seas that are in front of us, and there are some other signs, there are some other troubles that people are not really talking about, but I want to talk a little bit about that next year.
36:46
Uh, Christian Briggs joins us on the broadcast here, and Christian is an economic strategist.

It's called On the Record with Christian Briggs.
37:30
Uh Christian, privileged to have you here.
37:32
Thank you, brother, for joining us on the broadcast.
37:35
Well, thank you so much for having me, Malcolm.
37:37
It's always been an honor and a pleasure.
37:38
And today's discussion points are going to be very interesting.
37:41
Yeah, let's start here.
37:42
Uh where I'd like to start.
37:44
I want to read you three headlines here, okay?
37:46
Three headlines.
37:47
I want to start with the economy at with USI like to do, uh, Christian at 30,000 feet.
37:52
Uh so after I give the three headlines, uh, give me your headline of the day, maybe.
37:57
Let's see how quick follow that headline.
37:59
You're ready for that.
38:00
Absolutely.
38:01
So here's three.
38:03
NBC News says U.S.
38:05
economy expanded at sluggish 0.7% in the fourth quarter.
38:11
Government says downgrade in first estimate.
38:14
That was the headline from NBC News.
38:17
Financial Times says U.S.
38:20
economy ended 2025 on weaker footing than previously thought.
38:25
Okay.
38:26
And the third one from the Washington Post.
38:30
Economy was shakier than it appeared, headed into the Iran conflict.
38:35
Okay.
38:36
So there's three headlines.
38:37
If you were to create a headline right now, go to the back room and come out and said, here's my headline for the day to the American people.
38:42
What would it be, brother?
38:44
I guess I have two.
38:46
I'll two.
38:46
First headline would be they're not wrong.
38:49
Second headline would be with the exception of the Iranian attack.
38:56
I think the tariffs were the ones that weaken the economy the fastest.
39:01
So my my combining those two would be very clearly.
39:04
We are we're on a weak approach, a weakening of approach to what was supposed to be the strongest economy in 50 years when Trump was on his uh campaign trail.
39:15
Wow, wow.
39:17
So you're saying, hold on here.
39:19
Now you're saying uh correct me on the tariff thing you just talked about.
39:22
You're saying the tariffs did more damage than we think.
39:27
In the underlying in the underlying bottom half of America, it did more damage than what was first calculated in an economic impact study.
39:35
And the reasoning is is because the aggressive nature of the percentages and the undefined messaging and direction that they were going scared people from number one, and number two, the middle class and the lower middle class, which took the brunt of the costs, and their inflation, Malcolm.
39:55
End of the day, tariffs are inflation.
39:56
Supreme Court said they're taxes, but whatever you want to call them.
39:59
It was a great.
40:00
Aggressive approach that might have been a little bit too aggressive in order to negotiate trade deals.
40:04
Kristen, do you think let me ask you something?
40:08
A serious question.
40:10
There was so much wrong and so much happening in our country prior to Trump coming into office.
40:16
That four years was uh what was a difficult period of time for the country, big time.
40:21
So was I mean keeping everything fear?
40:24
Was Trump it was is he trying to do too much too soon?
40:27
Is that the problem here with all the dangers with all the issues we had?
40:31
Uh a lot of pain.
40:33
Was he trying to do too much too soon?
40:36
That's a great question.
40:37
And you actually framed it really well.
40:39
He tried to do a lot in the shortest period of time that was a that was allowable that you possibly could screw it's no different than trying when you have kids, and you got to get three kids to three different football games or soccer games or baseball games, all these different things, and you're running so fast, but you got to do it.
40:57
He got handed a bag of rocks, Malcolm.
40:59
The economy wasn't anywhere near what people thought.
41:02
The underlying bottom current of the economy was actually recession.
41:05
And the second top half of the economy was going well.
41:09
But what's happening was it was all based on deficit spending and bad trade deals and deficit uh and and the trading themselves was really bad.
41:16
So yeah, he did a lot as much as he thought he could in order to make sure that he made every appointment to make sure that everybody got to where they needed to go.
41:26
The only problem was some of the people advising him did not look at the long-term cost, but rather a short-term fix.
41:36
Okay.
41:36
Say that one more time, please.
41:39
That last part, that last part.
41:41
The last part, the it was it was like this.
41:44
It's like you're trying to create value.
41:47
You're trying to create something of which that you can rest upon a foundation of economic steadiness, economic growth.
41:55
He did a lot too quick.
41:58
Too quick, and then it it sacrificed a lot of the economy is what it did.
42:01
The bottom half of America.
42:02
Yeah, I wanted the quick and the slow and the fast.
42:06
I wanted people to connect with your thoughts there because I think you nailed it.
42:10
Uh, really understand then what the problem is.
42:13
Yeah, it's my sense.
42:14
Krista, here's the problem as we move forward, probably.
42:17
All right, so as I always say to listeners, Kristen, uh, Americans have short memories.
42:23
We really truly have short memories.
42:25
There are reasons that's a good and a bad thing.
42:28
It's bad in the case like it might hurt us now.
42:31
It's good in the sense that we're resilient people and we move forward quickly to fix what needs to be fixed.
42:36
That's a beautiful thing, and that defines American.
42:39
Uh, but the problem is if you look back at that pain just before Trump got in, you remember when Kamala Harris was that election was happening, Kristen, right?
42:47
And people were really scared.
42:49
If she, if she ever had got close to this thing, they felt like we would have lost everything.
42:54
But the point is the economy was so bad, and we were hurting the inflation was horrible, it was upwards of 20%.
43:01
Nobody was admitting the truth.
43:02
Uh the open borders, everything that happened in our country, the economic conditions, nothing was favorable for success.
43:08
He comes in, everything's broken.
43:10
He starts to try to fix things.
43:12
The problem now is will Americans remember that pain.
43:15
And I and I question that they will, because there's been some success metrics since that point.
43:22
So, how do we thread that needle right now?
43:24
It's not going to be easy, is it, buddy?
43:26
Oh, no, no.
43:27
Listen, you you talk about threading a needle about called the word affordability.
43:32
Because the mind will allow yourself to kind of forget some of the bad things so that way you can move on in life.
43:37
That's just how the brain works.
43:39
Exactly.
43:40
But there's one thing that they're not going to forget, and that's 18 to 36-year-olds.
43:44
53% of them live with their parents.
43:48
90% of them have said recently they can't ever think about home ownership.
43:52
They never even think like that anymore.
43:54
They will never own a home in their minds.
43:56
They're never going to own a house.
43:58
So that's going to resonate far beyond any kind of tariff or any kind of Iranian conflict, oil, this, gas, that.
44:07
Those kids don't care about that stuff.
44:08
What they care about is not how it's got to this point.
44:12
They care about the point.
44:13
And the point is, I can't afford a car, health insurance, home insurance, a home.
44:19
I can't afford school.
44:21
That's what they know.
44:22
That's what they're going to resonate on.
44:24
And that is short and long-term memory embedded in their heads.
44:28
Kristen, you're so right with what you say there, man.
44:30
So right.
44:31
And I think people can, I'm sure everybody can grasp what he's sharing.
44:34
Kristen, how you that's a very complicated situation.
44:38
That there's no easy fix for what you say there, is there, brother?
44:42
No, there's no easy fix.
44:43
You're gonna have to succumb to two things.
44:45
And I hate to say this, but in order for all right, here we go.
44:48
I'm glad you asked.
44:50
In order to fix the lower demographics, see, the kids don't realize that tariffs did hurt them because it hurt some of their middle class parents.
44:59
But they don't realize, and they will here soon is the oil and gas industry did hurt them because it hurt their parents, and then it hurt them directly on the gas cost.
45:07
Look at a gallon of gas.
45:08
It's up a dollar a gallon in the past two weeks.
45:10
Okay, that's like 30%.
45:12
But to fix it, and I'm gonna say this, it's gonna sound socialist, but there's no way around it.
45:18
It's one way.
45:19
It's one way.
45:21
You're gonna have to have private enterprise come together with federal government, state, and local governments, and to offer two things, and private enterprise will actually pay for this, but the government can lead the process.
45:34
You're gonna have to find free college and free tuition for universities and trade schools really quick, and you better find a reduction in health care costs.
45:43
You may have to go into, I wouldn't call it a national or a socialist plan, like like England, but you better get those health care costs down to a point where it's affordable and you better get tuition in university because that's the first step they take that then their minds they need to afford a house.
45:59
You can't bring housing down.
46:01
You have to bring the educational value of the young people up.
46:04
Why you do that?
46:05
Because it increases their wage opportunity.
46:08
You have to have them make more money.
46:10
You're not gonna bring interest rates down, you're not gonna bring housing down.
46:14
You have to increase the young people's ability to make more money, and then the word affordability goes away.
46:21
And what do they have?
46:22
The next two words are thank you.
46:25
Well, you know, adding to what you say there, the affordability word.
46:29
When that started to come out in the circles, and we started hearing it, I almost gagged on the whole concept here.
46:35
Brilliant though.
46:36
I mean, so the these bastards get into office and they make everything unaffordable.
46:41
They send nation to the skies, you know, everything is unaffordable.
46:45
And then Trump comes in and and which is I had others.
46:48
I Harry Dent was telling me that the economist every dentist said, you know, Trump's going to get blamed for a lot of this stuff.
46:53
He didn't do a lot of that stuff up front, he said, but he's going to get blamed for whoever the president is, he said in this next administration will get blamed for a lot of the chaos and recklessness of the previous one.
47:03
It's an interesting statement, isn't it?
47:06
It is interesting because it has value.
47:08
It comes from a it comes from a uh basically the way people think.
47:13
It's remember, there's a there's a game we play as kids, and you don't want to be the last person standing without a chair to sit on.
47:20
Okay.
47:20
And the problem is that Trump now is the conductor of the band, and the band is playing music that the kids just don't like, as we say from where I used to come, the guy ain't the guy right now, and he ain't walking the walk, and he certainly isn't talking the talk that he did on the on the campaign trail.
47:37
And that's what people remember.
47:38
And the reason I bring up the 18 to 36-year-old demographic, Malcolm is so important, and I'll tell you why.
47:44
Because they're more educated when it comes to social, fiscal, and all-around politics.
47:49
Why?
47:49
Because they got AI at their fingertips.
47:51
They can count, they can figure out the BS, they can figure out the nonsense, and then they can discern that information and to something cohesive, understanding.
48:01
And though they know that Trump didn't cause the issues, but it doesn't matter.
48:04
He's got the hot potato in his hand, and the guy that's got the hot potato, that's the guy that's got the hand in the cookie jar, too.
48:10
And that's their cookies.
48:12
You're eating their livelihood, their way of life is not where it was 30 years ago.
48:17
And the problem is he's the one that's in the White House.
48:21
So it's easy to blame.
48:22
No, you're what you say is accurate.
48:24
I don't disagree with it at all.
48:25
Uh, whoever is in power is going to get blamed.
48:28
There's no doubt about it, uh, even for things they didn't have part in.
48:31
But again, a lot of these strategies trying to do uh too much too soon, but there was a lot of damage and a lot of carnage, Kristen.
48:38
And I think there's a price to pay for that because I think the country was in great uh grave danger uh coming through that period of time.
48:45
Um just the open borders alone would be a game ender.
48:48
And you spoke about that a lot on here.
48:50
So you know exactly what we're talking about here.
48:52
Uh now we got the elections coming in here.
48:54
Uh the uh the the midterm is key.
48:57
You did a great program this past week with a gentleman uh that you called, and this is available at a right at the website at America Outloud.news, oil shock Iran war and the 2026 election bombshell.
49:10
And you say the the host warned that sky high fuel costs and affordability pressure could devastate Republicans in the 2026 midterms.
49:18
Uh, Trump rolls the die.
49:20
He rolled the die here uh to put him out there, Kristen, and see uh their opportunity presents itself with Iran.
49:27
And he went ahead, and we know that's a that's a once in a generation move what took place there.
49:32
He took a gamble.
49:33
There's no doubt.
49:34
A lot of presidents would not have taken that gamble, and nor have they in past decades for the last 47 years.
49:41
Do you applaud the fact that he took that gamble, or do you think it was a reckless move?
49:47
Ooh.
49:48
So you have two scenarios here that need to be addressed to determine the answer to your question.
49:55
Would you be willing to have either one?
49:58
You can you only pick one, Malcolm?
49:59
So
50:00
I'm going to leave it to you to determine the answer that's best suited for you, and probably the American public will join in on this.
50:07
Do you want a hundred and twenty dollar oil?
50:10
Or do you want 13 nuclear missiles in the hands of Iran?
50:15
It's your call.
50:16
You got one or the other, but you can't have both.
50:18
Yeah, yeah.
50:19
You can't get rid of the, you know what I'm saying?
50:20
We can't get rid of the nukes, but you got to have the oil.
50:22
You gotta get rid of the oil, then they get the nukes.
50:24
Which one do you want, Malcolm?
50:25
Kristen brilliant.
50:26
That is brilliant, brilliant, brilliant the way you frame it.
50:29
For me, I'll take the 120 gallon get uh oil, no question.
50:32
Well, then my brother, that's what you just got tomorrow morning, tomorrow next day, the next week, the next month.
50:37
That's what you got.
50:38
Yeah, yeah.
50:38
That's what you got.
50:39
Well, there's there's a price to pay for that peace and security.
50:42
You understand that there's to pay for that.
50:44
Yeah, yeah.
50:46
The way you frame it's very, very fascinating.
50:48
But listen, listen.
50:49
Uh, Trump had already done a lot of things with energy.
50:52
Can't some of these things, and uh I I don't think he's gonna let it go too long that way.
50:56
My sense is he's gonna turn this wicket pretty quick here.
51:00
And he knows the danger it's gonna do in the midterm.
51:02
So I'm gonna suggest back to you that if we have the same conversation 30 days from now and 60 days from now, I think it's a different conversation on the cost of energy.
51:11
What do you say to that, sir?
51:12
Oh, yeah, energy will be way down after.
51:15
Oh, yeah.
51:15
60 days from now, we're gonna get back to about 75, 80 oil.
51:19
Oil's gonna have some type of a fear factor anxiety pricing into it.
51:23
It won't maybe get down to that 60 range, 65.
51:25
And I don't think the administration even wants 60.
51:27
I I know that at 70 to 75 to even 80, which sounds a little high, but let me tell you something, Malcolm.
51:34
For every dollar of oil, okay, for every dollar that barrel gets over 70 to 75 in that 80, 85 range.
51:42
You're gonna add a million six-figure jobs.
51:45
Did you know that?
51:46
No, no.
51:46
Wow.
51:47
You want to know how you do that?
51:48
In fact, it could be two billion jobs if it stays at around 80.
51:51
Let me let me tell you why.
51:53
This is actually a good thing if we get it down to that 7580 level.
51:58
Here's how it works.
51:59
And you're gonna see an increase in jobs here in about two to three months if oil stays above that 75.
52:05
Number one, they're increasing the drilling.
52:07
When it's 75 to 80, the drillers all over the United States and offshore, automatically get a massive new pay raise.
52:14
Get think about it, it's a pay raise.
52:16
It doesn't cost you one penny more to increase that that efficiency or increase the amount of oil.
52:22
But boy, look at the payday you get verse 60.
52:24
Now it's at 80, 85.
52:26
So you're gonna need more people to manage those current wells.
52:30
They're gonna go in and refract wells, and they're gonna drill new wells.
52:34
That's a couple hundred thousand people.
52:35
Second thing, more oil flowing.
52:38
What do you need to get the oil out of there?
52:40
Trucks.
52:41
You're gonna have more trucks bought, more trucks lease, more guys driving.
52:44
Yeah, and the third thing is guess what else?
52:47
The operators, it's called the downstream.
52:49
There's the upstream and the downstream.
52:51
So the upstream, which is all of your petroleum products that are made.
52:55
Guess what?
52:56
Guess of all that more profit.
52:58
All right, all of that.
52:59
So there's gonna be actually an increase in jobs.
53:01
All right.
53:02
So this is what we're talking about, really right now is very good news, actually, Kristen.
53:06
Really good news.
53:07
And if that back to that magic spot, I think you're spot right over target here.
53:12
I think around that 75 range would be probably really good.
53:15
And it would create a lot of the economic force you're talking about, which is awesome, but it also keeps the energy where it's effectable and uh you know it's affordable again to use their dirty word, uh, where you can get around.
53:27
So, with all that said, Kristen, uh, so 60 days from now, we're gonna be in a different position there now.
53:33
The the time to turn this whole thing economically between now and the midterms, because that's going to come on pretty heavy here.
53:40
Uh, as we're in the mark mid-March here right now.
53:43
Uh, there's still time to turn this train, isn't there?
53:46
There's time to turn the hearts and minds of people, but you have to turn the economy.
53:52
So the number one thing I would always say is don't look at the polls.
53:56
If I was talking to the president, and I've I obviously I've had talks with him in the in the past, not as long as I would love, but I would like to say this to him and his administration.
54:05
I would always say is focus on the messaging and the economy.
54:09
Politics will follow.
54:11
Uh you're right.
54:12
You're right.
54:12
Okay.
54:13
Think about this that though.
54:14
He knows it.
54:14
He knows he knows that, but the people around him need to know that.
54:18
True, true, true.
54:19
But I think you're going to see him now.
54:20
Remember now, he's going to be out on the campaign trail aggressively.
54:23
And this is going to be like he's on the ballot.
54:26
I'm I'm certain of it.
54:27
And that's going to turn.
54:28
And I think you know, you know, he's an economic guy, uh, Kristen.
54:31
He's not going to tolerate anything less.
54:33
He's going to be touting that horn.
54:34
Uh, and he's going to, I think you're going to see some interesting things.
54:38
He, I think he understands, you correct me, of the the the uh the uh the cost of this election right now.
54:45
If they take any, if they take the house back, he know they know he knows they're gonna cut his administration in half from four years to two years immediately, correct?
54:54
Right?
54:54
Correct, 100%.
54:55
If they if they in fact, I'll go a step further.
54:58
He will be impeached for sure if they take the house back.
55:01
And I am anticipating the house to fall to Hakeem Jeffries, who will become speaker, uh, and they're gonna use the tariffs as the means of which to impeach him is that they were unconstitutional and they were unfair burden, all these kind of different derivatives are gonna try to make out of that.
55:15
That'll be the battle cry.
55:16
If we lose the Senate, which if this if this Iranian issue continues for more than 60 days and you see elevated oil at 100 or more a barrel, you can kiss that Senate goodbye to the Democrats because out of just pure spite, there are certain moderate Republicans that are on the Trump train two years ago, six months ago, they're not there right now.
55:37
And if those prices stay elevated, you will see three to four U.S.
55:42
senators uh seats, Republicans, that is, flip to Democrats, and that will be the balance of power.
55:47
Then he will be convicted in the Senate.
55:49
That I can tell you right now.
55:51
Okay.
55:51
I I'm gonna suggest back to you.
55:53
I everything you said, I don't argue back with it, but I will say that I don't think that's gonna be the outcome, however.
55:58
I I agree with you 100%.
56:00
I'm gonna give you the scenarios if but the reality is we're gonna keep at least by one measure uh seat, which would be JD Bance's, you know, tiebreaker.
56:08
Yeah, yeah.
56:09
We'll keep that, but there is a lot of discord among the young people right now.
56:13
And remember, they're they vote twice in the numbers that any other demographic does.
56:17
All right.
56:17
All right.
56:18
Well, again, they're gonna have to turn this thing quickly.
56:20
We're gonna have to turn it quickly.
56:22
And the economy, as you say, Kristen, has got to come back strong.
56:25
If it does, I would suggest to you they can not only keep the Senate, but I do think there is a good chance they could keep the house if he plays it that way and throws everything into the economy, gets out there and works his ass off on the campaign trail, and the team around him starts to make some sense.
56:40
Uh with the within the economy, I think there could be a whole different outcome.
56:44
What do you say to that?
56:46
100%.
56:47
I'm I'm using I'm I'm actually trying to use your show.
56:49
And and because I know a lot of the people in the White House administration listen to your show, and I'm trying to give them the playbook.
56:55
Say, look, if you don't do this, like if you jump off a 50-story building without a parachute, I don't think you're gonna bounce.
57:00
Yep, yep, yeah.
57:01
Yeah, no, you're spot on.
57:02
No, no, we agree.
57:03
We agree on all fronts here.
57:05
Uh I'm glad the Americans could hear what you just said here.
57:08
Uh, Kristen, you you're you're just brilliant at this stuff, yeah.
57:11
I gotta tell you, man.
57:12
