  Speaker 3: the Tunk Media Network by Joe Thomas.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Thank you for joining us on this tedsdy. It gathered
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: around Joel Hoakstra Trans Siberian Orchestra on the newsmaker's line
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: with us doctor Cark when we headed the news. He
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: had a great idea for an auto pen.
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: You could go to the office supply store and buy
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: the auto by sharpy. You could sign something with the
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: same tim Donald Trump uses.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: It's Donald Trump's auto and but you're right though, I
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: think I think this idea that the auto pen exists
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: is shocking to a lot of Americans when you look
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: at the pardons that were signed, uh without the president's knowledge.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Even the chief of staff was was saying, oh, all
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: that goes through me, I'll make those determinations. And how
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: much of the president's administration was outsourced. Now the people
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: will defend the president by saying, oh, it's a lot
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: of work. You know you can't do you can't micro manage. Well,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: is it supposed to be a lot of work? Should you?
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Should you have people? Shouldn't our congressional representatives and those
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: folks be you know, shouldering their bit of the burden.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: Let's see, we had a president that said, uh, if
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: you can't stand the hate, stay out of the kitchen. Yeah,
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: if you can't do the executive's job, don't.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Get new There you go. It's the problem we.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: Had their I mean, we had an executive that clearly
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: was not the executive.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I think that that's not an unfair thing to say. Now,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: you know, when when it comes down to it, are
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: we asking the presidency? And we've talked about this, this
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: four year cycle of electing a new king and his
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: cabinet who has had the cabinet meeting yesterday. All those
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: folks in that cabinet room have an armed police department
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and the court system that they can can use for
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: whatever purpose, but against or for American citizens, and it's
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: not covered by the Bill of Rights in the US Constitution.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: Why do we go vote for folks, Joe, what's the
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: point If our congressional representatives are going to outsource their jobs,
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: If the executive is going to outsource his job, and
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: I don't know who's telling Supreme Court what to do,
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: why do we bother to go vote what's the point.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Well, that's why we have fifty percent voter turnout, doctor Clark,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: because the forty eight percent that didn't show up in
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Virginia and the forty seven percent that didn't show up
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: in New Jersey a month ago feel exactly the same way. Ah,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: what's the point. It's all crap anyway, and they and
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: they go back to their lives. But that's not new.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I mean Patrick Henry had that problem.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: No, I mean, we've had a Congress that has outsourced
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: its responsibilities for quite some time. We don't want to
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: do that. It'll be unpopular. Huh. Hey, Let's create an
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: agency and give it legislative authority.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Right, because that'll be more popular, that's right. And when
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the when the American people get mad enough, we can
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: use them to overthrow the constitution, call it racist, and
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: insert something much more or more easily managed, an authoritarian
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: euro style World Economic Forum led government like Canada has.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: There you go, so and here I have to go
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: because we have to get our first things in here
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: so that people know what's going on on our day.

• 13:37
  Speaker 17: Thank you very letting us be of service to you
• 13:39
  Speaker 17: this morning. Four three four eight eight two four two
• 13:42
  Speaker 17: one seven. That's how we get along with what we're
• 13:45
  Speaker 17: doing out here, and thank you for joining in as
• 13:50
  Speaker 17: we take it to the house, as they say in
• 13:53
  Speaker 17: college football parlance.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Anyway, So let me ask you quickly, what is the
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: bigger abstract question in this debate over the auto pen?
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: And again this drags back into the public consideration. You know,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: what is the authority of the government, and the auto pen,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: like so many things, probably had a very reasonable eye.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: That can't sign all those thank you cards, so have
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: someone else do it. I've got a meeting with the
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Joint chiefs or something along those lines. And it, just
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: like all things, it becomes corrupted and it grows and
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: grows and grows. This question, you know about the auto
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: pen is I think it picked up what I was
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: talking about with doctor Clark at four three four eight
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: A two four two one seven. The question is is
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: at what point is this an example of an executive
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: branch that's grown too powerful. I think it's a perfect
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: example of it. And I think yesterday was a great
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: day for originalism, you know, where the President talking about,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: you know, the original things that were supposed to happen
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: under the federal government, the things that you know, we
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: were supposed to be doing through Congress, not through the presidency,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: and all that. I think that's all an appropriate conversation
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: to have off of the auto pen question. Then we
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: pivot to the hearing yesterday, if you call it that
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: from the courtroom, the Afghan assailant this question, I don't know.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Is it possible, I'm asked by tankst at four three
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: four eight eight two four two one seven. Is it
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: possible that the Afghan nationalist was pissed that we pulled
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: out of his country and left them high and dry
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: with no means to protect themselves from the Taliban? Well,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I mean he's been in this country for a few
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: years for that. And then why the national Guard? Why
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: drive all the way to Washington? Can't that statement be
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: made if you're going to shoot at National Guards troops
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: for it, why drive all the way? You got them
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: right there in Seattle and in Portland, so you could
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: have made the same statement there. So I mean, I
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: get what you're saying about, you know, the way Afghan
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: was abandoned to the Taliban. But remember Joe Biden and
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: his auto pen thought, the thought the Taliban was the
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: legitimate government of Afghanistan, and Brenda and Virginia Beach writes
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: in Afghan who murdered Sarah benks Room was part of
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: the CIA paramilitary zero Unit death Squad. Zero Unit is
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: for deniability for the USA, And there are also claims
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: that these zero units killed one hundred and fifty soldiers
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: US servicemen and butchered innocent Afghan women and children. I've
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: seen those stories, Brenda, and I've seen those allegations made
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: against these zero units. I've referred to it because those
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: stories and the stories that they were assets being used
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: to infiltrate Afghan and the Taliban and the revolution that
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: we wound up turning the country over to anyway, And
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: this becomes what happens when you have these shadow operations,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: And the more the cover up goes on, the more
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: it becomes difficult to say, oh, well, that didn't happen,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: because if you're covering up for something that happened under
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: the Biden administration, why, And I think that leads to
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: a reasonable point in your question, Brenda, is that you know,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: what was his job in Afghanistan, What was he abandoned
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: to in the United States? What things when he got
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: here did he was he promised things? I mean, think
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: about some of the not that it's a documentary, but
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: imagine you know what happened to Hans Landa at the
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: end of Inglorious Pastors, and more appropriately, what happened to
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: his aide to comp after he turned himself over to
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Aldo Rain in the woods just across the US lines.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: You know, what were you promised? And were you promised
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: something that didn't get delivered? Is that what happened? Those
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Those are the things that I think stand out in
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: this as a question of you know, what actually is
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: going on there? So you're visiting Joel Hochstra, hanging out
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: with us, and we'll continue the conversation of all those things.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Joel of course with the tour going on, getting into
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: New Orleans coming up soon, friends, listening gso down there
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: and Jacksonville in so many places. So this year coming
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: back for the first time is one of the neat
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: things that I always felt made tso special. Trans Siberian
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Orchestra always pre COVID had a thing that you guys did,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: and it would drive the music stations crazy because you know,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: we love.
• 19:47
  Speaker 18: To give away our front row seats and backstage passes
• 19:49
  Speaker 18: and all that stuff, you know, and that special access
• 19:52
  Speaker 18: and you blew that all up and said no, no,
• 19:55

  Speaker 1: guys used to always do, and I guess you've come
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: back with you.
• 20:20
  Speaker 19: Know, I feel like most of the people that we
• 20:22
  Speaker 19: see in the signing lines are like the diehards because
• 20:25
  Speaker 19: I think they understand it, and I think some of
• 20:27
  Speaker 19: the other people, some of the new people maybe just
• 20:29
  Speaker 19: can't like wrap their head around the fact that there's
• 20:31
  Speaker 19: a free meet and greet.
• 20:33
  Speaker 20: And it's like it's almost like you see a lot
• 20:36
  Speaker 20: of the diehards coming through and going, I'm so glad
• 20:38
  Speaker 20: you guys are doing this again, and it's like it, well,
• 20:42
  Speaker 20: where are.

• 20:46
  Speaker 20: but honestly they haven't been as long as you would expect,
• 20:49
  Speaker 20: like when you're offering my kind of like a free
• 20:51
  Speaker 20: meet and greet, like hey, come on, you know, it's
• 20:53

  Speaker 20: last like.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: An hour or something like that.
• 21:00
  Speaker 19: Haven't really hit that kind of thing yet, but I mean, dude,

• 21:06
  Speaker 19: as Trans Siberian Orchestra, as big of a tour as
• 21:09
  Speaker 19: this is to have a special I guess, like kind
• 21:13
  Speaker 19: of a grassroots approach to things by being on a
• 21:15
  Speaker 19: first name basis is a lot of the fan base
• 21:17
  Speaker 19: and knowing everybody that's you know, that's part of this.
• 21:21
  Speaker 19: That's part of the tradition, which is such an important
• 21:26
  Speaker 19: part of.
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: What TS it was about.
• 21:27
  Speaker 19: I mean, this is really it's a holiday tradition for
• 21:30
  Speaker 19: so many and so that's it's I think the signing
• 21:33

• 28:47
  Speaker 1: get crazy and it's easier just to holler something at
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: voice to text. The question over what the Afghan assailant
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: was doing for the US government may be the key
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: to why there's such a big cover up, because what's
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: standing out in this story is why would the Trump
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: administration be going to such great lengths to cover up
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: for or to not at least make the hay that
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: they normally do when there's a failing of the Biden administration.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: And when the issue first came up, that was all
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: you heard was, look, this guy was part of the
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: whole mess. But as it became clear he was somebody
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: who was an asset working for the CIA, all of
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: a sudden, it's like, Oh, we're going to process and
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: national security and all that. And I think that's where
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: you're seeing some of these horrific stories coming out of Afghanistan.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: Will delve further into that in a little bit. But

• 32:09
  Speaker 1: you have an awesome morning, James.
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: I can just show you too.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: So go back into this and understand, you know what
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: is being said now about these zero units in Afghanistan.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: These are outside the military code of conduct, units that
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: are really built under this bad policy, built out of
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: an enemy of my enemy is my friend, and they
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: have so frequently blown up in the face of the
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: American military. And like so many things, the premise is good.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: You have citizens who you know, want to stand up
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: against the regime, the French resistance. Of course, you know,
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: there is the great example that I still think we're
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: living under this idea that we're going to find the
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: new French resistance every time we go into one of
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: these countries to liberate them. The story that was brought
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: to our you know again, of these units that the
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: twenty nine year old Afghan National was part of, is
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: brought to the fore by Human Rights Watch. They have
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: for some time accused these native units of doing what
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: they call extra judicial killings, violations of international humanitarian law,
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: even going back into the Obama administration, Human Rights want
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: and it's again a point of order to say a
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: lot of this stuff was going on with Joe Biden
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: or his auto pen or his predecessor, Barack Obama at
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: the helm of the US military. And is there a
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: connection to that, that's you Is it coincidence? Is it
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: correlation not condemnation that the political presidents that are the
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: ones with more warks on their docket than Donald Trump
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: has had in his term and eight months would use
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: these sort of extra military operators to do things. But again,
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: the premise is built off of the French resistance and oh, well,
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: we get their native they can move amongst the population.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: The occupying force doesn't know who it is. And we
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: did this in Afghanistan. And while you know, our occupation
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: of Afghanistan was going on, it became clearer and clearer
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: we were fighting, you know, what had become the become
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: of the Mohajadin, but we were just developing a new branch.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: And what we found in many cases were the very
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: people that the Mohajadin were fighting against. Now we're fighting
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: with us so that they could get back in control
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: of Afghanistan. And all the while, the citizens are the
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: ones who wind up in the crossfire of all this.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: And you want to be on the side of right,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: you want to go in to liberate a country, and
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: when you're fighting terrorists who will show up in the
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: middle of the night with car bombs rather than confront
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: you on the battlefield, you're going to wind up getting
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: dragged into their style of combat. And so these adjunct units,
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: these intel units, these operations, these zero units became key
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: in gathering intel but also operating in the gray areas
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: of international law. Now, maybe this guy was promised protection
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: from something. Maybe you know a bunch of people said, hey,
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: you know, you get caught up with this guy and
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: they said, you killed my uncle, or you had captured
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: and tortured my uncle. But we can't make excuses out
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: of the incident. You don't get to this point where
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: you drive three quarters of the way or half actually
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: the entire way across the United States to murder someone.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: And from the testimony that was released yesterday in court,
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: seems like he just goes and shoots at a crowd
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: of National Guards troops. It's not targeted on two people specifically.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: But the more that the administration keeps from the public sphere,
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: the more the filling in of the blanks is going
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: to continue. And that's going to be to the benefit
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: of the mark exists in this country.
• 38:02

  Speaker 7: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,

• 39:32
  Speaker 7: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 39:38
  Speaker 7: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
• 39:43
  Speaker 7: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and

  Speaker 3: First thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Talk Media Network.
• 44:17
  Speaker 15: Certain.
• 44:22
  Speaker 13: From Mountain.
• 44:25
  Speaker 27: Need to bring the table, do.
• 44:30
  Speaker 14: The visit I can do with the spear.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: Thank you for letting us be of service to you
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: this morning. Spar A Ted's d morning text message here
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: from Larry says, Joe, you sound a little bit flummixed
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: as you went through the story of the zero Units.
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: Are you trying to spin for President Trumps somehow and
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: cover for him in this.
• 45:03
  Speaker 11: No.
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: The issue with these stories is as they're breaking out,
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: you have to watch for these things. And in my
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: business you see groups like the Human Rights Watch and
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: you understand what their model is and like so many things,
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: Eric Hoffer to the main sound stage police, it becomes
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: it starts as a movement, becomes a business and then
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: becomes a racket. And some of these organizations they take
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: their own definitions of terms like extra judicial. So if
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: you read Time magazine, it's one of the big sources
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: of all this Human Rights Watch. They apparently still think
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: people read Time magazine. So they went to Time Magazine
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: with this big expose on what this guy, this twenty
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: nine year old Afghan and assailant did while in Afghanistan
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: and understand that this is the same kind of stuff
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: that was going on in Vietnam. So you know, when
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: the question is raised, and when I say going on
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: in Vietnam, I'm talking about back here during Vietnam, paid
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: for by the Soviet Union, paid for by the people
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: who want us tearing each other's throats apart so that
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: they can come in and take over authoritarianly by indoctrinating
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: our children and our grandchildren to turn on us and
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: turn us in. So I'm always cautious, Larry, when I'm
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: sourcing to and I wanted to make sure I was
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: reading the things that are in between the lines for you,
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: because just because anything that happens in the field of combat,
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: the Human Rights Wat views as extra judicial. They believe
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: anything that the US military is doing right now is
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: extra extra judicial because they go back and they say, well,
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: did you declare war? Did you have you declared war?
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: You can't declare war against the Taliban. They're not a country,
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: so therefore you can't have a war. So therefore it's
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: an illegal war. And therefore you this is what you know,
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: human Rights Watch does. It's just like Green Peace, you know,
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: or any of these other national you know, get Greta
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: Thunberg out and ask her because at some point it's
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: about getting your name there so that the fundraising checks
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: can start coming in again. So because you have to
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: treat this stuff like you know, the the nuclear core
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: that it is, it can power great things. Is it
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: often to the peril of the US military to engage
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: these folks as assets. I don't think it's a mistake
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: to plan that because I think you need to have
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: ground intel. You need to have people who understand the society.
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: You need to have units that understand what's going on,
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: and they should be out there fighting for their country.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: Just like President Trump said to the Somalis, go back
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: and make Somali great, as Somalia great again. Don't just run.
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: But you know it's a human inclination to run. But
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: you have to be careful with this you know some
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: of these storylines, because they will go out there and
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: they'll they will become you know, self licking ice cream
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: cones and the echo chamber, just like this the Steele dossier.
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: We said it, therefore you've repeated it. Now your repetition
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: of the statement becomes the news. So that's all you
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: heard in there is I was just trying to be
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: judicious and the way I used the Human Rights Watch
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: story because as Time Magazine would want to do, there
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: are no other thoughts in that story besides Human Rights Watch.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: Good morning here on the air with Joe. First thing
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: this morning, who's this.
• 49:22
  Speaker 29: A person? How we're doing on the war against a
• 49:27
  Speaker 29: propity and drugs.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: How we're doing on it. We have a lot of
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: people dying fentyl overdoses. It has actually become a kinetic
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: war in the last few months under Pete Hegseith's administration
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: of the Department of Justice, which has got a lot
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: of people freaking out. But we still don't do enough.
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: From my standpoint of trying to get us to stop
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: being consumers of this product. Is if that's what you're
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: getting at.
• 50:00
  Speaker 29: No, it's just that I think decades ago they've declared
• 50:05
  Speaker 29: the war against pro se, still see per people leave
• 50:10
  Speaker 29: living on the streets, and they've declared war on drugs
• 50:15
  Speaker 29: and still see overdoses on the streets and elsewhere. So
• 50:22
  Speaker 29: it seems like they've been able to declare war on
• 50:27
  Speaker 29: sunching other than countries. Now the results are questionable, But
• 50:33
  Speaker 29: you don't need a contrary to declare war.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: Well, you do if you're going to use your army.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: And I think that's what the Human Rights Watch people
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: go for when they start to make their ridiculous premise
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: that if we're going and this go back to two
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: thousand and two when George Bush declared war on terror
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: and everyone said, well, how can you do that? And
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: he very specifically brought in the States sponsors of dot
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: dot com don which became the premise of if you
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: were you know, except for Pakistan. For some reason, you know,
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: we keep ignoring Pakistan and their involvement in this, and
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: since that was where Osama bin Laden and all his
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: boys were hanging out. But but regardless of Pakistan and
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: well in Saudi Arabia, we also ignore their participation in
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: it as well. Your point is, I think, Mike, that
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: you know, we we need to have a strategy when
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: we're doing this stuff. It's easy, you know, war is
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: easy to say, hard to conduct. Am I getting am
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: I grocking you correctly?
• 51:40
  Speaker 29: And well, there's so many vague sayings like if you
• 51:47
  Speaker 29: own a piece of property like a house or even
• 51:52
  Speaker 29: an undeveloped piece of land, and you put up an
• 51:55
  Speaker 29: eight foot privacy fence, do you have a a fency
• 52:00
  Speaker 29: of privacy? And now if there's a utility pull across
• 52:04
  Speaker 29: the street and the local law enforcement puts a civillance
• 52:10
  Speaker 29: camera up there, maybe twelve for fifteen feet high, so
• 52:15
  Speaker 29: it's looking over your privacy fence, you still have an
• 52:19
  Speaker 29: expectation of privacy?
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, you do?
• 52:22
  Speaker 29: You even though nowadays they've got drones.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, No, honestly, I mean there's case law that's being
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: developed on this. I mean I get what you're saying.
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: Just because we can surveil your yard behind your fence
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean it's admissible in court. And that's you know,
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: some of the stuff that you're hearkening back to yesterday's
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: program on the US, the United Healthcare murderer.
• 52:51
  Speaker 22: Crime across the country is at an all time high.
• 52:54
