Preparedness Over Panic: Free Speech, Lawful Self-Defense, and a Government That Needs a Reminder Who It Works For · International Flavor: Where the Truth Tastes Better

• 0:00
  Hey there. Hi there. Hello there. Good morning and welcome.
• 0:04
  I am Samuel Trapp. This is International Flavor.
• 0:07
  I'm coming to you live from the Lake Cozark real estate of the art studio.
• 0:12
  Having a good time this AM.
• 0:18
  Should you feel the urge, please call in 5, 7, 3, 7, 4, 6, 8,
• 0:22
  0 2 0.
• 0:26
  I'll try to keep my coughs off of the microphone.
• 0:28
  I've been, uh, battling once again. I don't know. You know, I've,
• 0:33
  I'm one of those people that never, never gets sick. And, uh,
• 0:37
  uh, it's nonsense. I'm watching the U S uh,
• 0:41
  spreading truth and wisdom everywhere on the planet,
• 0:45
  dropping armed forces guys onto a Russian tanker telling you,
• 0:49
  this is going to start a war between the
• 0:54
  U S and Russia. Um,
• 0:57
  I don't understand what Trump is thinking these days. I really don't. Um,
• 1:03
  I, uh, I, I don't know. I don't care anymore. I mean, the, the,
• 1:08
  the nuts are in control or in charge and, uh,
• 1:12
  we are out there making friends like always. And, uh,
• 1:17
  I do not support this action, these actions at all.
• 1:21
  And they're gonna lead to a war. Um, China, you know, all last night,
• 1:25
  they were pressuring, uh, um, pushing China. Um, they have a,
• 1:30
  so there's a one China policy and the one China policy has been in place for a
• 1:36
  very long time.
• 1:37
  And that one China policy and Taiwan supports it.
• 1:43
  So the, so they go back and forth between supporting it and not supporting it.
• 1:46
  The argument has always been that Taiwan is a, is a Chinese and,
• 1:51
  uh, the U S knows it's Chinese. We know about the one China policy.
• 1:56
  We know that China says they're not there. There was a ruler in exile who,
• 2:01
  who lost years and years ago. And we started doing what we always do,
• 2:06
  pumping, pumping money and people into there. So we now, and, and,
• 2:10
  and unfortunately this all becomes about money. And this really is what we really
• 2:14
  live on a risk board for the rich and powerful, the extremely rich,
• 2:19
  the extremely powerful created. And how do they get us to buy into it?
• 2:23
  They get us to buy into it because they control the media too.
• 2:27
  And so the media doesn't tell you the truth. And, uh, they just, um,
• 2:32
  I'm telling you the world is gearing up for a world war. It's,
• 2:36
  it's gonna happen. And, uh, now I used to say, nah, we're not that stupid.
• 2:40
  We won't do it. Trump's a president of peace.
• 2:42
  That dude is not a president for peace, not remotely.
• 2:46
  He ain't trying to get for peace.
• 2:48
  He is using the army just like everybody else did. Well, the armed forces,
• 2:53
  he's using the armed forces just like everyone else did for financial purposes.
• 2:58
  It was very clear. And he said it openly about Venezuela.
• 3:03
  This is what we're doing. Now, if you watch these pictures,
• 3:06
  see they didn't get pictures on the first tanker that they took.
• 3:08
  There's been a lot of confusion as to whose tanker it is, why it's going.
• 3:12
  Nobody is giving us that true story.
• 3:14
  So, I mean, we're not getting it. And so you see,
• 3:18
  and then there's been confusion everywhere. I taught,
• 3:20
  I listened to a bunch of commentators trying to figure it out last night.
• 3:24
  Whose tanker really it was because we'll get lies over here.
• 3:29
  Nothing that, you know,
• 3:30
  don't go thinking that just because it came from, uh, uh, you know,
• 3:34
  Fox news or any other channel or any us channel that it's right.
• 3:38
  Cause it's not. And Trump is in the game now. And, um, he is,
• 3:43
  he is propagandizing. Remember that guy's the salesman. And, uh, you know,
• 3:49
  he talks about Zelensky. We're still, we're,
• 3:51
  we're headed for things over there while Russia is distracted with that war.
• 3:55
  This, and this is probably what's going on. Trump is, uh, you know,
• 3:59
  now that he's come out of the closet, so to speak, um,
• 4:03
  and done what he's done in Venezuela and proven that it's all about money.
• 4:08
  We're going to have a world war with everyone against us.
• 4:14
  I mean, who are our allies going to be? Seriously? We've screwed them all.
• 4:18
  We've screwed everybody. It's just us.
• 4:22
  And so you say, Oh, you were the powerful army in the world.
• 4:25
  We're spread out all over the damn place. And, uh, uh, you know,
• 4:30
  you know, a trillion, I, I,
• 4:31
  I remember commenting about it when the 1 trillion budget for, uh,
• 4:35
  for the military came out. Um, when, when Trump was talking about,
• 4:39
  I was like, what in the hell is that? We don't need that. Well,
• 4:42
  apparently we do. Um, we're, we're funding it. We're doing it.
• 4:45
  We're pumping more money into, uh, into Ukraine again. We're, uh, uh,
• 4:50
  now the story all day yesterday was that things have calmed down in,
• 4:55
  uh, Venezuela and that what there's several commentators have said this,
• 5:01
  that the U S didn't know what they were going to do when they captured Maduro.
• 5:06
  They didn't know what, what was going to happen.
• 5:08
  And they haven't done a very good job of it. You know, of who's,
• 5:11
  of who's in charge. We're in charge. That's it.
• 5:13
  We just got some guy standing in a, you know,
• 5:15
  Air Force one with Lindsey Graham going, we're in charge. Yeah. Well, okay.
• 5:19
  That helps tell us what's gonna happen.
• 5:23
  Tell us where the next step is. Tell us why this is the best step.
• 5:28
  And then, you know, but no, he's already onto the next project.
• 5:31
  He don't give a crap. You know, we're, we're, uh, we're, we're off to Greenland.
• 5:35
  You know, we're off to Iran. We got Lindsey Graham out there.
• 5:38
  They're, they're distracting us. They're doing what they always do. Why?
• 5:42
  Because they know the news cycle is small and they know that we have a short
• 5:46
  memory, that our memory is very short. We'll forget all about this.
• 5:50
  It'll just keep going. And the next time it'll be, uh, um,
• 5:55
  it'll be, uh, forgotten what we did in Venezuela, you know,
• 6:00
  and how, and how we took that. So when they,
• 6:02
  when they attempt to do the same in, uh, with the Ayatollah, well, you know,
• 6:06
  good luck. It's a comment. Um,
• 6:09
  and I wanted to say something about that this morning. That wasn't really my,
• 6:13
  my topic because I had promised that I would get to the meat of the day,
• 6:21
  but I definitely wanted to put my thing. So these tankers, they're seasoned.
• 6:24
  You should go out and check them out on, uh, on YouTube. But Putin is,
• 6:29
  is, uh, not saying things, uh,
• 6:32
  the Trump wants to hear in China is really up in arms.
• 6:35
  And if China goes into Taiwan, we better not respond. Why would we,
• 6:40
  you know, why, you know, if it's your hemisphere,
• 6:43
  how are you going to claim that Taiwan isn't China's hemisphere?
• 6:47
  So this is our hemisphere. You can't come over it. Well,
• 6:50
  that's what we're doing. And we want people to say, Oh no, that's all right.
• 6:55
  We can run, you know, it's pinky in the brain. I'm telling you.
• 6:59
  And the brain is Lindsey Graham, unfortunately, and pinky is, is Trump.
• 7:03
  What are we going to do today? Brain? I got this big old army,
• 7:06
  just waiting for you. Big old armed forces. Let's,
• 7:09
  let's take over some more private property of other people.
• 7:12
  Let's be the policeman of the world because that's what we're doing, folks.
• 7:16
  We are nothing but policemen and those guys diving off.
• 7:20
  Do they want to be part of it?
• 7:21
  I stole a Russian tanker and those guys didn't do anything about it.
• 7:24
  You're going to push a button and we will be in nuclear war.
• 7:28
  I've never thought about owning weapons. I really didn't. Um,
• 7:31
  but I'm getting one now I'm, I'm, I'm shopping and I'm, I'm, uh,
• 7:35
  I'm going to arm myself against the government, not against,
• 7:38
  not against the Russians, not against Chinese, against the government.
• 7:41
  I'm going to make sure, you know, when I grew up, uh, uh, I grew up Mormon.
• 7:45
  Everybody knows that. And one of the strongest, well,
• 7:48
  maybe you don't know that, but now you do.
• 7:50
  But one of the strongest tenants that they have and where the,
• 7:54
  what they put into place is, uh, having a, uh,
• 7:58
  one year food supply. And all I have is a box of, uh,
• 8:02
  I bought them at, uh, after Ian, I bought a, in Florida.
• 8:07
  I have a, a good size box of, uh, of course it's in Florida,
• 8:12
  my storage unit down there, or is it in the house down there?
• 8:15
  I don't remember, but I gotta go. Uh,
• 8:17
  I gotta go get it because I'll tell you what war's coming.
• 8:21
  I never ever thought I'd,
• 8:22
  I'd be the one pushing for this that we're going to start world war three,
• 8:26
  but that's exactly what we're doing. And so, uh,
• 8:30
  my boy scout years were all be prepared and I'm not, you know, I don't have,
• 8:35
  I don't have two years of food supply. I got two weeks if I don't even have that,
• 8:40
  you know, and I just,
• 8:40
  I got a can of corned beef hash and several eggs and that's about all I got in
• 8:45
  my house. And, um, it's, uh, I don't, you know, I, I, uh, sadly,
• 8:50
  for the last three, four months, I eat one meal a day.
• 8:53
  And usually it's out in a restaurant somewhere and I don't feel like cooking.
• 8:57
  It's just me. And, uh, and so I, once a day,
• 9:01
  and I've, I've done that for years anyway. You know, the once a day,
• 9:05
  maybe that's not healthy, but that's what I do. Anyway, I'm rambling.
• 9:07
  I'm all over the place this morning, but,
• 9:09
  but you're getting my true thoughts on the matter.
• 9:12
  The matter is that we're going to start a war and we are going to start it.
• 9:17
  We're seasoned tankers that don't belong to us.
• 9:19
  We've broken every rule of everything with Venezuela and the boats.
• 9:25
  You can't arrest,
• 9:26
  you can't seize a boat militarily because you have sanctions on it.
• 9:30
  It's against the law. You, uh,
• 9:34
  UN law of the sea, UN, uh, it's UNC LOS,
• 9:37
  but a comprehensive law of the sea or something like that.
• 9:40
  And I can't remember UNC LOS. There's no,
• 9:44
  we have no authority to get onto a flagged vessel,
• 9:47
  especially one flag to the Russian flag.
• 9:49
  And why are we provoking Vladimir Putin? That's foolish.
• 9:53
  It's extremely foolish. We've got all the idiots in, uh, uh,
• 9:56
  Europe now telling the Z monster, yeah, we're good. After the war,
• 10:01
  we're going to do this. Trump,
• 10:02
  Trump thinks he's going to stop the war by seizing a few boats of Putin.
• 10:06
  That ain't happening. And, uh, the, the story,
• 10:09
  and there's various stories and, uh, Venezuela is very,
• 10:13
  very, uh, rich with, uh, resources,
• 10:18
  extremely rich gold, one among them. And, uh,
• 10:22
  what the several Russian commentators have said have said that that boat was
• 10:27
  full of gold, that they were taking gold.
• 10:30
  And everybody knows that the hoarding of gold by Russia, China,
• 10:34
  any BRICS members has been enormous in the past few years.
• 10:37
  I said to you yesterday about the fact that our, our, uh, uh,
• 10:42
  debt is going to collapse us.
• 10:43
  We've allowed this to happen.
• 10:45
  I'm telling you as a forward thinking ready person,
• 10:49
  it's time to start buying weapons. And I'm not talking just a pistol,
• 10:52
  you know, I'm talking, you know, get yourself a, a, a tank, you know,
• 10:57
  park it in your yard and, uh, uh, you know,
• 11:00
  go to those military supply places and everybody start buying tanks.
• 11:03
  We need to do it. These idiots,
• 11:06
  Hegseth has turned into a real moron when I watch him.
• 11:09
  It's like some high school football jock, you know,
• 11:12
  cheering everybody on. And I don't see anything, but I see nothing that they
• 11:17
  can't, they can do no wrong. And he's justifying, justifying,
• 11:22
  justifying, and, and we can do no wrong. We don't believe in wrong.
• 11:27
  We are so arrogant at, well, we sure as LA me,
• 11:32
  we are so arrogant as a country,
• 11:35
  as a country that we have people like Hegseth and Rubio and
• 11:40
  even Donald Trump. I mean, it's always been,
• 11:42
  it's always been idiots like Lindsey Graham that jumped, you know,
• 11:46
  those guys,
• 11:47
  at least you know that they're out there beating the war drums every day.
• 11:51
  They've been beaten for war. But you know,
• 11:53
  I laughed when they asked for a trillion dollar budgets. Here we go. You know,
• 11:57
  got to take care of your rich buddies, right?
• 12:00
  This ain't to take care of your rich buddies. This is to go to war.
• 12:04
  The peace president is prepping to go to war and it's going to be within three
• 12:08
  years. He's going to go to war and he couldn't beat Russia
• 12:15
  financially, economically. He, and he's very afraid of China.
• 12:19
  And so, well, the rise of China.
• 12:22
  And so he's going to push the war now because the only way that we can defeat
• 12:27
  for any length of time, and it won't be forever anyway,
• 12:30
  the only way we can defeat them is to do is to do what we're doing right
• 12:35
  now. Then, and arguably we can't even do it right now.
• 12:40
  So all I'm watching,
• 12:42
  and I'm generally a pretty strategic and forward thinking player,
• 12:46
  all of the big chessboard pieces that they are talking about.
• 12:50
  These chessboard pieces are scaring me to death. I fear for my,
• 12:55
  my descendants, for my children, for my grandchildren.
• 12:59
  That's what I fear for that.
• 13:00
  We're going to cock up our country so bad by these.
• 13:04
  They know financially that my generation has already cocked it up and this,
• 13:09
  these trillions all the time. Next thing you know,
• 13:11
  what we're going to do is we're going to liquidate all of our debt.
• 13:14
  I'm surprised, you know, that's, that's actually an economic step.
• 13:18
  And if you want to, you know,
• 13:20
  take the bricks because or any other coalition of people that are joining their
• 13:25
  things together, you could beat them only in two ways,
• 13:28
  economically or militarily and economically what you should do right now,
• 13:33
  since it's going to go this way anyway, eventually some moron and you know,
• 13:37
  some idiot is going to destroy every everybody's view of the U S is already
• 13:42
  destroyed internationally anyway. But uh, if we, if we, since,
• 13:47
  since Trump knows that the next smartest move would be just quit paying the debt,
• 13:54
  nationalize it and move on. That'll give you some time.
• 13:57
  People can sue you to pay it and then you nationalize it and all the debt that
• 14:01
  they hold because everybody's unloading it anyway.
• 14:05
  So you might as well quit paying it.
• 14:07
  Now that the biggest financial or institutional holders,
• 14:11
  let's see what the latest is on that. Cause I really don't remember.
• 14:14
  But China is a, is bailing.
• 14:16
  A lot of people are is bailing on us debt and not taking it in anymore,
• 14:23
  which it, uh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 14:26
  We got to ask that a different way.
• 14:27
  What is the order of country for those holding U S debt instruments?
• 14:42
  It's going to be frightening because it's changed over the years,
• 14:46
  but I haven't looked in at least six months, three months.
• 14:50
  I haven't looked in a while. So let's see, as of December, 2024,
• 14:56
  but now this is, this is different because it's not there anymore.
• 15:00
  Japan holds 1.6 trillion mainland China,
• 15:06
  759 billion United Kingdom,
• 15:10
  722 billion Luxembourg, 423 billion.
• 15:15
  Cayman Islands, 418 billion Canada,
• 15:19
  378 billion Belgium, 374 billion.
• 15:24
  Ireland, 339 billion France,
• 15:27
  332 billion in Switzerland, 298 billion.
• 15:32
  These countries and others purchase debt because they are considered safe and
• 15:38
  liquid investments. That's not true anymore.
• 15:41
  That is worth noting that data for financial hubs like Luxembourg and Cayman and
• 15:45
  Belgium may be overstated as the institutions in these countries hold securities
• 15:50
  on behalf of investors from other nations.
• 15:56
  And here you go. Let's, let's,
• 15:58
  let's read a couple of recent articles on this.
• 16:01
  U S treasuries have long been viewed as safe,
• 16:04
  highly liquid investment lenders feeling the low borrowing cost and vast
• 16:09
  financial capacity of the U S federal debt.
• 16:12
  The share of federal debt held by foreign investors, federal debt,
• 16:17
  foreign debt, whether government or individual is on the decline.
• 16:23
  Big time foreign banks hold more than 8.5 trillion in us securities represents a
• 16:29
  substantial chunk of publicly held federal debt.
• 16:34
  This is down from almost 50% now it's 30% of the debt in the early 2000s.
• 16:40
  Although reduced ownership of debt by competitors or adversaries may appeal to
• 16:45
  policy makers worried about risk and cost of such debt.
• 16:48
  A robust demand for us treasury is important for the fiscal health of the
• 16:56
  country. I say at this point,
• 16:59
  this article was written at the end of 2024 I say that it's now a critical point
• 17:07
  already when the, when the demand for us treasury slows like it has since 2013 the
• 17:13
  obvious question is why,
• 17:16
  why is that while foreign debt as a share of the public that has declined from
• 17:21
  2008 when it was 50% and now it's only 30% why is that declining?
• 17:29
  Why is it one major trend behind the falling foreign share of us debt is that
• 17:33
  the diet supply of debt is growing faster than,
• 17:38
  excuse me,
• 17:39
  than foreign people want to buy it or anybody can buy it.
• 17:43
  Our debt is growing so fast that you can't sell it fast enough.
• 17:47
  There's nobody to buy it. And by the way, a shrinking customer base,
• 17:53
  people don't want to buy it anymore.
• 17:56
  This is the problem and it's leading Donald Trump to be an idiot on the world
• 18:02
  stage like he's doing right now. And it is, this is,
• 18:06
  this is wrong debt held by the public, by us. Okay.
• 18:10
  This is why it should be nationalized has more than quadrupled from 2008 we
• 18:16
  hold the debt.
• 18:17
  The debt's on our backs from 6.4 trillion in 2008 to 28.9 trillion by the end of
• 18:26
  2024 foreign debt has grown but only from 3 trillion to 8 trillion only foreign
• 18:31
  demand for our debt is not unlimited.
• 18:34
  When the borrowing needs grow faster than demand for treasury,
• 18:38
  the US has to offer a higher interest rate and that's what's kicking our ass.
• 18:43
  They have to offer a higher interest rate to investors.
• 18:47
  That way the balances supplies balance supply and demand, right?
• 18:52
  I have an economics degree when you know equilibrium is the point that you want
• 18:56
  and equilibrium keeps going up. Equilibrium keeps going up.
• 19:00
  I don't know the exact percentages now, but the percent is going up.
• 19:05
  And so if you used to be able to get foreign debt and hold it and get a
• 19:08
  guaranteed bond rate of four or four and a half percent, that was cool.
• 19:12
  But now you get a bond rate of a six or six and a half percent.
• 19:15
  I don't know those numbers. I made them up,
• 19:17
  but I know it's gone up over the years that that we're getting there.
• 19:21
  So the growth in, and if you look at the two,
• 19:23
  the bar chart that goes up in trillions of dollars held by the foreign
• 19:27
  foreigners, that one, it's still creeping up, but only in number, not, uh,
• 19:32
  it's still, um, percentage wise, it's, it's, it's gone down.
• 19:37
  Uh, so, so remember that the,
• 19:40
  although the debt has gone up from, from, um,
• 19:44
  that almost, uh, us debt,
• 19:46
  the last numbers for 2024 that they're holding $8.5 trillion.
• 19:51
  That $8.5 trillion right now is only 30% of the entire almost 40 trillion.
• 20:02
  And in 2008 when they held, uh, 2008, where are we?
• 20:12
  2009, 2008, come on assholes.
• 20:18
  Pardon my French. In 2008,
• 20:20
  there was 3 billion or 3 trillion. I mean, being held by the foreign.
• 20:25
  And that 3 trillion represented almost 50%.
• 20:28
  So the, the total debt at that time in 2000,
• 20:32
  that was only 6 trillion only. Yeah. Sam's talking, you know,
• 20:37
  trillion. And this is in how many years since 2008 in 18 years,
• 20:45
  the debt has gone. The total debt we had was, uh,
• 20:50
  in 2006 at seven and here's eight 3.1 trillion held by the foreign and almost
• 20:57
  5 trillion. So you got 8 trillion in debt back in 2008.
• 21:03
  It's 38 trillion 39 today according to the debt clock.
• 21:09
  And the percentage that is out there,
• 21:12
  the foreign holders of the debt that are holding now 8 trillion there.
• 21:16
  They don't want to buy more.
• 21:17
  They don't want to keep up the fact that they own 50% so if they were still
• 21:21
  going to be at 50% they'd have to be at 20 trillion and well almost 19 I think
• 21:27
  and then they are, but right now they're only at eight.
• 21:29
  So the 8 trillion that's being held by the foreigners or foreign banks,
• 21:34
  foreign instruments, people that are investing in the U S and the foreign China,
• 21:38
  unloading, uh, Europe, all over Europe, they're unloading their percentage.
• 21:42
  They're China's selling off 60 trillion.
• 21:44
  Nobody trusts anywhere in the world, especially, and you,
• 21:48
  I read you the list of who's in charge, right? Of a, who, who holds the most, um,
• 21:53
  the most debt because get this, we have mainland China's at seven 59,
• 21:58
  but they used to be a much larger percentage and they're unloading quickly
• 22:03
  every quarter in this year and in 2025 at the end of 2025 let's see,
• 22:09
  let's see if I can find what it was at the end of 2025 I'm going to ask the
• 22:13
  question in a different way. Um, how much,
• 22:19
  uh, doll, how, how many, how much,
• 22:22
  how many dollars in dollars based,
• 22:28
  um, how many dollars of U S debt is held by China?
• 22:38
  The numbers I've been sharing with you were at the end of 2024 and that ought to
• 22:42
  be even more scary because China has been, uh,
• 22:45
  China holds a about seven 50 China has been,
• 22:50
  has been dropping because they were well over a trillion and a round seven
• 22:55
  figures are slightly done. Usually the second largest charting has been reducing
• 23:00
  its holdings of us treasuries over recent years.
• 23:04
  And, uh, you know,
• 23:07
  understanding this 9% of total investors that it is not the dominant source that
• 23:14
  some believe it is because we only,
• 23:15
  they only owned 850 and they'd been unloading at least 60, uh,
• 23:21
  60, 70 billion every quarter.
• 23:23
  So they're getting rid of a trillion to a trillion and a half every year to
• 23:28
  China's good.
• 23:29
  They don't trust us anymore and nobody trusts us anymore and they don't trust
• 23:34
  our debt.
• 23:35
  So buy weapons everybody because war is coming because Donald Trump definitely
• 23:40
  understands this. And I hate to be one of those guys out there.
• 23:44
  Never thought I would be being one of those, you know, um,
• 23:47
  that's one of those crazies living out in my,
• 23:50
  in my trailer at the bottom of the river. You know,
• 23:54
  who's he's living in a trailer at the bottom of the river.
• 23:58
  We're going to find that just because I like it. So that was Chris,
• 24:03
  Chris Farley, Chris Farley van by the river.
• 24:11
  How do we feel about that? Let's find that. Um,
• 24:15
  he's Matt Foley. You're going to live in a van down by the river.
• 24:20
  And he's pretty damn funny when this comes up there. You know, I'm,
• 24:23
  I'm getting commercials all of a sudden on my YouTube. Somebody,
• 24:27
  I'm getting screwed here. I gotta go get rid of this. Uh,
• 24:31
  maybe I'm not paying anymore and I should be.
• 24:34
  I wonder if that's the story we're going to listen to, uh,
• 24:38
  to Matt Foley just because I want to. And I think it's funny. You ready?
• 24:43
  It's Matt Foley down by the river.
• 24:45
  Brian, Stacy, your mother,
• 24:48
  Ellen and I are so glad you decided to join us for this family communication
• 24:52
  session.
• 24:54
  So what's up you guys getting divorced or something?
• 24:57
  No, we just wanted the family to talk as a group.
• 25:01
  Okay. Well let's get it started then.
• 25:04
  All right. Well, Stacy, Brian, your father,
• 25:08
  Ted and I are a little bit concerned. Celia,
• 25:11
  the cleaning lady was in the family room and she found a bag of pot.
• 25:16
  She didn't smoke it. Did she?
• 25:20
  No, she didn't smoke it.
• 25:23
  Now we're not here to come down on you. I mean,
• 25:28
  that's not what we're about. Okay.
• 25:30
  We're just concerned that pot could lead to other things.
• 25:33
  Crack ice boom pow.
• 25:36
  But we know you don't want to hear this from us.
• 25:38
  Sure. I mean, we're your parents.
• 25:40
  Who wants to hear this stuff from their parents?
• 25:43
  Your father and I came up with a brilliant idea to give you kids some
• 25:46
  direction. A motivational speaker.
• 25:49
  Yeah. One of those guys who speaks to big groups at high schools and churches.
• 25:55
  You mean to come to the house?
• 25:56
  Uh huh. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Later.
• 26:00
  Come on you guys. This set me back a few bucks. Okay.
• 26:05
  His name is Matt Foley.
• 26:07
  Now he's been down in the basement drinking coffee for about the last four
• 26:11
  hours and he should be all ready to go. I'll call him up.
• 26:18
  Matt, we're ready for you. His speech is called go for it.
• 26:23
  Now he's used to big groups. So make them feel like there's a crowd here.
• 26:27
  Matt, come on up buddy.
• 26:33
  All right. How's everybody? Good. Good.
• 26:38
  Good.
• 26:42
  Now as your father probably told you,
• 26:45
  my name is Matt Foley and I am a motivational
• 26:49
  speaker.
• 26:52
  Now let's get started by letting me give you a little bit of a scenario of what
• 26:57
  my life is all about. First off,
• 27:01
  I am 35 years old.
• 27:04
  I am divorced and I live in a van down by the
• 27:09
  river.
• 27:15
  I'm sorry. I turned down the mic. That's why I love this.
• 27:17
  This is so freaking funny and I don't know why I'm playing it for you.
• 27:21
  I'm going nuts probably, but pay attention.
• 27:24
  Now you kids are probably saying to yourselves, Hey,
• 27:27
  I'm going to go out and I'm going to get the world by the tail and wrap it
• 27:32
  around and pull it down and put it in my pocket.
• 27:35
  Well,
• 27:36
  I'm here to tell you that you're probably going to find out as you go out
• 27:40
  there that you're not going to amount to jack squat.
• 27:50
  You're going to end up eating a steady diet of government cheese and living in
• 27:56
  a van down by the river.
• 28:00
  Now young man, what do you want to do with your life?
• 28:04
  I actually, Matt, I kind of want to be a writer.
• 28:08
  Well,
• 28:09
  la dee frickin da.
• 28:12
  We got ourselves a writer here. Hey dad,
• 28:17
  I can't see real good. Is that Bill Shakespeare over there?
• 28:21
  Well actually Matt, Ellen and I have encouraged Brian in his writing.
• 28:26
  Dad, I wish you could just shut your big yapper.
• 28:32
  Now I wonder Brian,
• 28:36
  from what I've heard, you're using your paper, not for writing,
• 28:40
  but for rolling doobies.
• 28:44
  You're going to be doing a lot of doobie rolling when you're living in a van
• 28:49
  down by the river.
• 28:57
  Young lady, what do you want to do with your life?
• 29:00
  I want to live in a van down by the river.
• 29:04
  Well, you'll have plenty of time living in a van down by the river when you're
• 29:09
  living in a van down by the river.
• 29:15
  Now you kids are probably asking yourselves, Hey Matt,
• 29:19
  how can we get back on the right track?
• 29:27
  The
• 29:27
  visuals of all that are hilarious and I'm sorry to play that for you.
• 29:31
  I got distracted, but it's a good,
• 29:33
  a good way to change topics and maybe look at the news of all the BS that's
• 29:38
  going on in the world that we shouldn't be.
• 29:40
  We shouldn't be a foregoing the pleasure of seeing the stupidity of our own
• 29:45
  country. And, uh, let's see. I wanted to share for you the, uh,
• 29:50
  the seizure of a Russian flag tanker.
• 29:54
  What we know so far and by the way,
• 29:57
  the U S is getting out of,
• 30:00
  they're quitting nearly half of the 66 agencies that the U S is left is the U
• 30:07
  from the UN. The U S has announced it is withdrawing from dozens of international
• 30:13
  bodies that no longer serve American interests.
• 30:17
  So Donald Trump going all,
• 30:20
  all in all America and kicking the crap out of the world like he's doing is not
• 30:26
  a peacetime president.
• 30:27
  And now he's withdrawn from these major UN and non UN forums that they are in
• 30:33
  climate migration, social policy, peace.
• 30:36
  Donald Trump signed a memorandum suspending support for a total of 66
• 30:41
  organizations,
• 30:42
  agencies and commission that operate contrary to U S national interest,
• 30:47
  security, economic prosperity, or sovereignty said the white house Thursday.
• 30:52
  These withdrawals will end taxpayer support for entities. What he's doing,
• 30:56
  this is financial by the way, this has nothing to do with, uh,
• 30:59
  with any of these agencies.
• 31:01
  This is all because he knows the analysis that I just gave you on the trillion
• 31:05
  and he's not going to support this crap anymore. He's not supporting the UN.
• 31:09
  You know, you, you, you go, he's, he's encouraged, I'm sorry, the, uh,
• 31:12
  he's not going to defend NATO.
• 31:14
  They have to all up their stuff in the next four or five years.
• 31:17
  And basically he's left him there and he got to leave him behind.
• 31:20
  He's going to steal stuff now. He's going to take it. And he's,
• 31:23
  he's making no bones about it. Folks. Um,
• 31:27
  here's the, uh, what he said,
• 31:29
  these withdrawals will end taxpayer support for entities that advance the
• 31:34
  globalist agenda over us priority or address key issues inefficiently.
• 31:39
  The statement read adding that many of them target radical climate policy,
• 31:44
  global governments and ideology programs that conflict with us sovereignty and
• 31:48
  economic strength.
• 31:50
  I'm going to be paying attention to Jr today because I'm sure he'll want to go
• 31:54
  into this cause we're all nuts. We fall.
• 31:57
  And I'm not saying you shouldn't get out of these organizations,
• 31:59
  but don't go thinking it's because the agencies support radical policies.
• 32:04
  It's because Donald Trump knows what he, I mean, you can agree or disagree,
• 32:08
  but he knows what he's doing. I disagree strongly. And, uh, and,
• 32:13
  and I'm telling you, he's not doing it for the reasons he's giving you.
• 32:18
  His priority is running the United States as a business.
• 32:23
  And it's completely, how do I want to put this?
• 32:27
  You kind of got to respect it in some ways.
• 32:29
  I don't respect it because we're not good neighbors and we never have been,
• 32:33
  but he's just said, well, you know, since we're not good neighbors anyway,
• 32:38
  screw it. Let's just come out. So anticipate seeing him. Uh,
• 32:42
  what do you call it? Taking the federal debt.
• 32:44
  But the problem with that is we have deficit
• 32:49
  spending anyway. What's the deficit. I forget what it was last time.
• 32:54
  Let's go to the U S debt clock. I don't want to say it's 1.8 trillion U S
• 32:59
  debt clock. This is the reason.
• 33:03
  This is the reason us debt clock.org.
• 33:07
  Where is it? Hmm. How come, you know,
• 33:11
  you type in a website and you're not allowed to have it anymore. You,
• 33:15
  you have to the U S debt clock in the real time. Here it is.
• 33:20
  The where's the deficit, the spending that we do.
• 33:25
  Um, blah, blah, blah. Budget deficit. Yeah.
• 33:28
  1.7 trillion dollars.
• 33:30
  And we're at $38 trillion and booming the debt per citizen,
• 33:36
  a debt per is 112,000 and per taxpayer,
• 33:41
  355,000. So, you know, uh,
• 33:45
  most people don't have a house. It's a, that's that amount, you know,
• 33:49
  that, uh, you, you, you save and pay for 30 years to do that. And, uh,
• 33:54
  you know, we're, we're burdening our children with it.
• 33:56
  Unless Donald Trump liquidates it,
• 33:59
  but you can't do that unless you fixed a federal budget deficit.
• 34:03
  And they're so used to spending in the red. They haven't, they, they, they,
• 34:08
  you know, we'll never get anywhere, anywhere. And I used to know this number,
• 34:12
  but when, uh, was the last,
• 34:16
  sorry to not have this before. Uh, last time the U S was debt free,
• 34:21
  was not in debt when us debt was zero. See if it's ever happened.
• 34:26
  Last time the U S national debt was zero was
• 34:32
  1835 during president Andrew Jackson's
• 34:36
  administration, marking the only time in us history,
• 34:39
  the country was entirely debt free. This debt free status
• 34:46
  lasted about a year as the government began borrowing again in 1836 because of
• 34:52
  economic conditions that follows that led to the panic of 1837.
• 34:56
  It's always panic. You know, when was January one, 1835,
• 35:01
  the debt was paid off through increased federal revenue from land sales and
• 35:05
  tariffs combined with Jackson vetoing spending on internal improvement.
• 35:10
  And it ended in 1837, the debt accumulated again shortly after.
• 35:14
  And by 1837,
• 35:16
  the nation was back in debt with a period of, uh,
• 35:19
  zero debt, uh, that contributed to, uh,
• 35:22
  financial instability because we didn't have any debt.
• 35:25
  So see what they're pumping down our throats right now is that us debt, uh,
• 35:30
  is a good thing that we need us debt, that we gotta have it.
• 35:34
  And you can get a chart of the amount of us debt that comes about and, uh,
• 35:39
  the way the public debt is. And, you know,
• 35:42
  we are at a portion where the percentage of GDP of the debt,
• 35:48
  our total GDP is only about call it 20 and we're in debt to 38 trillion.
• 35:55
  So 20 trillion is dead. Oh, we're the greatest country in the world.
• 35:58
  Look what we do. How much of that is caused by us debt anyway?
• 36:04
  I mean, seriously, how much of that comes from the debt? So anyway,
• 36:09
  I'm going back to the article about the affected organizations that we're
• 36:13
  withdrawing from include UNFCCC,
• 36:15
  the UN's main body for climate negotiation, UN women,
• 36:19
  the body that deals with gender equality, UNFPA,
• 36:23
  an agency for population and demographics to non UN bodies include the IPCC,
• 36:28
  an authority on climate science, which won the peace prize, a Nobel in 2007,
• 36:33
  international renewable agents, energy agency,
• 36:36
  IRENA and the global counterism forum.
• 36:39
  Why would you leave the global counterism for us? Secretary Mark, uh,
• 36:43
  the secretary of state Rubio hailed Trump's move,
• 36:46
  accusing the bodies of actively seeking to constrain American sovereignty.
• 36:52
  Trump has been cleared.
• 36:54
  No more sending American taxpayers money abroad with little to show for it,
• 36:59
  said Rubio in a statement today, president Trump announced the U S here's,
• 37:03
  here's his statement on, uh, looks like he's on X. Let's read the whole thing.
• 37:07
  So I don't, so I don't butcher what he said cause we want the whole thing.
• 37:11
  Okay. And he gave, he, he, he provided the statement.
• 37:15
  We can go and read it later today. I'll, uh, I'll download it to the,
• 37:19
  to save as my, um, to save as my desktop or share this in email to myself.
• 37:25
  Oh damn it. No, I've cocked it all up again.
• 37:30
  Still not feeling well, friends and neighbors. So today, here's his quote today.
• 37:34
  President Trump announced the U S is leaving 66 anti-American useless or wasteful
• 37:40
  international organizations. Review of additional agencies, uh,
• 37:45
  organizations internationally remains ongoing.
• 37:47
  These withdrawals keep the key promise Trump made to Americans.
• 37:51
  We will stop subsidizing global bureaucrats who act against our interests.
• 37:55
  The Trump administration will always put American Americans first.
• 37:58
  I don't believe that for a second. Um, they aren't putting us first with this war.
• 38:03
  They're putting, if they want to call it, uh, that they're putting, uh,
• 38:07
  somebody ahead of us, they're putting big money interests ahead of us right now.
• 38:12
  And, uh, that is exactly what's occurring.
• 38:14
  And pretty soon we're all going to be living in a van down by the river.
• 38:19
  That's where we're going to be. Uh,
• 38:21
  because the U S is going to nationalize that debt might not be today,
• 38:25
  might not be tomorrow, but you, you can, you can figure that's next on the agenda.
• 38:30
  Uh, and war, cause we gotta have a war.
• 38:33
  War brings you out of a horrible depression. It can help you. Uh,
• 38:38
  it can help you. What do you call it? Turn around the finances,
• 38:42
  but we don't have the industrial capacity. We have none. I listened to a war guy.
• 38:46
  Who was that yesterday on my YouTube? I might share some of that with you.
• 38:49
  Was Mearsheimer for real. And he was on with, uh,
• 38:53
  where's my history and my youth tube.
• 38:55
  Let's go to YouTube and start all over. Get rid of Marco Rubio. He's,
• 39:00
  he's really starting to piss me off these days. Let's see.
• 39:03
  We'll go to her. Where is my history?
• 39:09
  I don't know how to work this anymore. I'm a loony tune. Um,
• 39:14
  but where is it? Hello history. How's the family home?
• 39:20
  And shorts and where's history.
• 39:24
  I think this is history. No, it's not. It's, um,
• 39:28
  uh, uh, Russia's Russia's really talking, um, poorly. Now I've listened to, uh,
• 39:34
  you know, I listened to a Russian one. It's called, uh,
• 39:37
  silver oil and debt.
• 39:40
  The world is going to a new crisis, silver oil and debt.
• 39:45
  And, uh, it was by Mikhail Hazin, who is an economist in Russia.
• 39:50
  And I listened to him sometimes on the, uh, uh, Solovyov live or Solovyov,
• 39:56
  um, evening with Solovyov, although that's been blocked too.
• 40:01
  So people were getting creative. So they, they blocked everything Russian.
• 40:05
  And I watch it through a Russian, uh, app. It's pretty funny.
• 40:09
  I knew the word in Russian. Well, I choked to death,
• 40:14
  but there, uh, but there was this app called Smotrim and, uh,
• 40:18
  which means watch and, uh, or we're watching basically. And so we, you know,
• 40:23
  you can watch and get programs on there. And if I do,
• 40:25
  Smotrim and I do it through Canada or I do it through Russia or whatever,
• 40:30
  I can watch it on my iPad or I don't have an iPad in my tablet.
• 40:33
  I can watch it on my tablet. And I used to be able to watch it on the TV. Uh,
• 40:38
  but you can't download the pre-Legenia, the app.
• 40:41
  You can't download it, uh, anymore. And YouTube, you know, they're, they're,
• 40:46
  they're, uh, right involved in this.
• 40:49
  You want to get to the censorship of America,
• 40:51
  go to YouTube because if it gets too bad, they don't put it out there.
• 40:55
  No news about this tanker and all the negatives.
• 40:58
  They're not able to put out there that say what they did in the app and
• 41:01
  everything. If you think it's not being controlled, you better think again.
• 41:06
  It's being controlled.
• 41:07
  Even those of us who just say what we want are getting blocked.
• 41:11
  I got blocked in Russia for a good long time by YouTube. And, uh, um,
• 41:17
  and, and they are, they're upping that. It's a propaganda war.
• 41:21
  And, uh, you know, we'll be lucky if it doesn't turn into a,
• 41:25
  a war that we got to send our, our sons and daughters to.
• 41:28
  And we'll be extremely lucky if that's not the case. Um,
• 41:32
  and I hope that's not the case. I hope I'm wrong.
• 41:35
  I hope we get to come back on here and go, well, that Sam's full of crap,
• 41:39
  but all the signs are there. All the symbols are there.
• 41:43
  We did an act of war already and that was not policing.
• 41:47
  That was not enforcing, enforcing federal law.
• 41:50
  You can't enforce federal law in a different federal location. You can't,
• 41:55
  you only have jurisdiction where you are. And I, you know,
• 41:58
  I wonder if the judge has just given him time to figure out how they're going to
• 42:02
  sell that to the public so he can keep them. You know,
• 42:05
  we can go anywhere in the world and steal people. And, and that,
• 42:09
  what we saw with all of Venezuela was nothing but a sales pitch.
• 42:13
  And it's the same distraction. And if you're a conspiracy nut,
• 42:17
  this is going to be a big deal for you. Um,
• 42:20
  it's the same distraction that we got in 2000 when we lost all our, uh,
• 42:25
  all our rights.
• 42:26
  This is the same deep state stuff and don't think that Donald hasn't been
• 42:29
  commandeered by them. He has, he's just focusing them, uh,
• 42:34
  more, more, uh, toward us. That's what he's doing.
• 42:38
  And the next step is going to is going to be liquidation of us debt at some
• 42:42
  point that he's going to,
• 42:43
  he's going to do something or he's going to put it on slow play or whatever.
• 42:48
  And, uh, it's, it's, it's not good. And we had, uh, this, anyway,
• 42:53
  this guy at Cerebro Neft and, and, and debt, um, uh,
• 42:57
  Mikhail Hazin, he's very interesting to listen to.
• 42:59
  And I was trying to find out more about that, um,
• 43:02
  that boat that they took or the, the, the, the ship that, uh,
• 43:07
  they seized and what was on it. And they have been very quiet about that.
• 43:11
  Maybe JRL has a better source of getting some of the news and he can talk about
• 43:15
  it. But they were as of last night,
• 43:18
  and I didn't have a chance to do it this morning, but as of late last night,
• 43:21
  all the news of the day in Russia, which remember late at night in,
• 43:25
  in here is early in the morning tomorrow in Russia, right? And, uh,
• 43:29
  right now they've already lived the 8th of January.
• 43:32
  Their day is ending and ours is, is, is just starting. They're eight, eight to,
• 43:36
  eight to 12 hours ahead of us, depending on which, uh, time zone we're all in.
• 43:40
  But you call it eight at least or 10. And, uh,
• 43:44
  they don't know who what's on the, the, the only very seriously high people.
• 43:49
  I bet, you know, Trump was stealing the gold on that ship. And that's what,
• 43:53
  that's what many of the people are saying. And, uh, you know, uh,
• 43:58
  Lavrov gave a speech and he said, uh, um,
• 44:03
  he said, uh, that, uh, you know, you're pushing the wrong buttons.
• 44:07
  You are pushing the wrong buttons by stealing these tankers. This is not good.
• 44:12
  And, uh, you know, the aftermath of the, of this, uh,
• 44:17
  this, uh, Venezuela, at least everybody's come out of the closet.
• 44:21
  We know who they are now. Um, we know who they are.
• 44:26
  And, uh, where, where's my, I don't have my show left anymore. We're gonna,
• 44:31
  we're gonna go and see what, uh, what the reaction was,
• 44:35
  what we hear. Cause the, what we know so far, uh, nobody's talking. They're not,
• 44:40
  they're not speaking,
• 44:42
  but I guarantee you there's some military boys on the U S coast guard and all
• 44:45
  these other places that are stealing bars of silver right now,
• 44:49
  bars of gold and silver right now. That's what they're doing.
• 44:53
  And, uh, let's see.
• 44:57
  The Marinera had been shadowed by the coast guard for days.
• 45:01
  And, uh, here it is. How was it seized?
• 45:05
  On Wednesday, the, the was seized.
• 45:08
  The ministry said the U S personnel boarded the vessel on the high seas outside
• 45:12
  the territorial water of any state, which is against, by the way, the U S, uh,
• 45:17
  or UN, uh, comprehensive law of the sea tanker was intercepted Northwest of
• 45:22
  Scotland over an alleged violation of U S sanction. That's policing.
• 45:26
  That's all it is. Um,
• 45:28
  the operation was carried out by department of justice and Homeland security
• 45:32
  coordination with military, according to U S European command.
• 45:36
  Um, it used to be called the Bella one. It's crew had 28 people,
• 45:39
  six citizens of Georgia, 17 of Ukraine,
• 45:43
  three from India and two Russians.
• 45:45
  It was headed toward Venezuela ahead of the new year.
• 45:49
  When the coast guard attempted to do paint, detained it in the Caribbean,
• 45:53
  a cutter ordered the tanker to proceed under escort to a U S port after American
• 45:58
  authority said they didn't receive confirmation from Guyana,
• 46:01
  that the vessel was authorized to sail into that flag.
• 46:04
  The tanker declined to follow the Americans changed its course and entered the
• 46:08
  Atlantic ocean.
• 46:09
  Tanker was pursued by a U S warship and aircraft from NATO companies countries
• 46:14
  in the UK later confirmed it assisting Washington or it assisted Washington in
• 46:19
  capturing the vessel. During the pursuit,
• 46:22
  the tanker's captain changed the name to Marinerfa and lawfully obtained
• 46:25
  temporary registration under the Russian flag from a port captain.
• 46:29
  And so she authorized to issue the documentation. Despite this,
• 46:33
  the ship was later seized in the basis of a warrant issued by a U S federal
• 46:38
  court. That isn't how it works is bullshit.
• 46:43
  It's complete horseshit. It's not how you do it.
• 46:46
  You don't stretch the land law onto the sea because that doesn't apply.
• 46:52
  It's a horseshit. And, and, and where we have completely lawless. Okay.
• 46:58
  Russia's foreign ministry condemned the seizure saying that American authorities
• 47:02
  are repeatedly informed that the vessel had Russian affiliation and civilian
• 47:06
  status. The actions the ministry said are a grave violation of international
• 47:10
  maritime law, which they are.
• 47:14
  Moscow called on Washington to Washington to immediately cease illegal actions
• 47:19
  against the tanker and other vessels engaged in lawful activity on the sea.
• 47:25
  It demanded proper treatment for the Russian citizens aboard the vessel and that
• 47:29
  they be allowed to return home.
• 47:30
  The transport ministry earlier said that the attack on the vessel is a violation
• 47:37
  of the UN convention on the law of the sea,
• 47:41
  which is absolutely right.
• 47:43
  And then you can't take a warrant from the U S and execute it on a foreign ship.
• 47:49
  This is all crap. We are nothing but bandits.
• 47:52
  And that the universal law of the sea or the UN convention on the law of the sea
• 47:57
  ensures freedom navigation in our national waters.
• 48:00
  Although the tanker was engaged in commercial operations,
• 48:03
  Moscow said it would handle all issues related to protecting its citizens on the
• 48:08
  vessel.
• 48:08
  China also condemned the U S with the foreign ministry saying the move seriously
• 48:13
  violates international law.
• 48:15
  China has always opposed illegal unilateral sanctions without the basis of
• 48:21
  international law and without the authorization of the United Nations Security
• 48:25
  Council. So my big question is why do we have a U N?
• 48:31
  Why is the UN out there? I mean,
• 48:34
  the U S is helped found the UN, you know, is located in New York.
• 48:39
  I think that's where they have a lot of meetings anyway.
• 48:42
  I think the headquarters downtown Manhattan somewhere. And uh, you know,
• 48:47
  we don't give a crap. We don't, we ignore those, the rules completely.
• 48:52
  We don't pay attention to them.
• 48:54
  Former Austrian foreign minister Karine Niesel slammed the seizure as a blatant
• 49:00
  violation of international law. Another day,
• 49:03
  another blatant violation of international law. This time Marin maritime law,
• 49:07
  she wrote on her telegram channel.
• 49:10
  The seizure is an act of theft and piracy under the guise of legal terms.
• 49:14
  John Dugan, an ex Marine and police officer has told the agency task.
• 49:19
  At this point we should stop pretending there's a strategy here.
• 49:22
  And call it what it is. State sanctioned piracy.
• 49:25
  Now that's a U S guy located in a, in a Moscow.
• 49:29
  And I agree with him. This is BS. And those of you out there shouting,
• 49:33
  this is great. You know, it's fantastic. Nobody will screw with us anymore.
• 49:37
  Nobody was screwing with us before. This is horse Pucky.
• 49:42
  I'll try to quit swearing. And uh, you know, the, the,
• 49:46
  the tensions are gonna, you know, this is pushing it. This is really, um,
• 49:52
  put pushing it now, get this so bad that, that the hero,
• 49:57
  Zelensky, the idiot, he, uh,
• 49:59
  has asked the U S to kidnap the Chechen leader, uh, uh,
• 50:03
  Ramaz Kadyrov. I've been to Ramaz Kadyrov's, uh, his mother's, uh,
• 50:08
  mosque in, uh, to, in Georgia. Was it Tbilisi?
• 50:11
  I don't remember where I was in. I think it was in Tbilisi, uh, Georgia or no,
• 50:16
  no, no, no, no. I'm sorry. What am I talking about? He's in Chechnya and, uh,
• 50:21
  um, I went from Tbilisi to that, to there.
• 50:25
  I can't remember the name of the city. Unfortunately, I forget it,
• 50:27
  but it's beautiful. Um, Grozny, that's what it's called. Grozny.
• 50:32
  And a Ukrainian leader, Zelensky,
• 50:34
  the idiot has asked the U S to kidnap the head of Russia's Chechen
• 50:39
  Republic. So now, now that we've kidnapped, uh, uh, you know, in,
• 50:43
  in Venezuela, you think you can get into, to Chechnya please and get,
• 50:48
  uh, get Rama Ramzan Kadyrov, please.
• 50:52
  He made the remarks on Wednesday and demanded that the Western backers put
• 50:55
  pressure on Russia and argued that it would help in the Ukraine conflict.
• 50:58
  They're losing quickly.
• 51:01
  The Ukrainian leader suggested that the U S could kidnap Kadyrov and speed up
• 51:05
  negotiations. They aren't negotiating. These assholes are not negotiating,
• 51:10
  not remotely. Are they negotiating?
• 51:12
  They just come out and control the media. That's all they've done.
• 51:17
  They go have meetings with themselves and people that support, you know,
• 51:21
  their position and hate Russia. They have their own meetings.
• 51:24
  They've been doing it for four years. They go have these meetings.
• 51:28
  Everybody comes out and says, Oh, geez, we condemn Russia. Great.
• 51:32
  Why don't you listen to Russia and what Russia has said and calm
• 51:36
  down the world and quit trying to win in a glow in
• 51:41
  globalism. We, all you're doing is creating more war.
• 51:44
  This war is over or it's going to go into the world war.
• 51:49
  Japan is now threatening China. Did you see that yesterday?
• 51:53
  Japan is threatening China and saying, uh, if you do anything in Taiwan,
• 51:56
  we're coming to, we're going to jump in the military, right?
• 52:00
  We're going to jump in. US has bases in Japan.
• 52:04
  Also we got bases everywhere,
• 52:06
  but we don't have enough to have everybody everywhere,
• 52:09
  even with a trillion dollars. Uh, and let's finish this story.
• 52:14
  The Ukrainian leader suggests the U S kidnap Kadyrov to speed up negotiation.
• 52:18
  He praised Trump's action against Venezuela. Yeah.
• 52:23
  He prays this should tell you who he is and the kidnapping of the country's
• 52:28
  president, Nicholas Maduro. At least nobody's lying about it. This is,
• 52:31
  this is nothing but kidnapping regime change.
• 52:35
  The whole world can see the result. Zelensky says they did it quickly. Well,
• 52:40
  let them carry out some kind of operation against Kadyrov.
• 52:43
  Maybe then Putin will see this and think about it. Zelensky asserted he better,
• 52:48
  he better get used to Russian, uh, uh, special forces too. Cause you know,
• 52:53
  I think Russia is more restrained than this idiot.
• 52:56
  The Chechen leader was quick to shoot back and accused Zelensky of trying to
• 53:00
  disrupt negotiations rather than streamline them.
• 53:03
  While urging him to man up and take action on his own,
• 53:08
  instead of hiding behind the Americans. Here's what he said.
• 53:12
  The buffoon suggests that U S authorities kidnapped me. Mind you,
• 53:17
  he didn't even threaten to do it himself. Like a real man would.
• 53:21
  He didn't even attempt to entertain the thought Zelensky
• 53:25
  cowardly hinted that he wouldn't mind standing aside and watching
• 53:30
  it from a safe distance. Kadyrov wrote on his telegram channel,
• 53:35
  the U S launched a surprise attack on Venezuela, blah, blah, blah. And uh,
• 53:39
  you know, uh, he's a prison, you know,
• 53:42
  he described himself Maduro has described himself as a prisoner of war.
• 53:46
  Did you hear that?
• 53:47
  And president Trump has openly asserted that Washington will run Venezuela
• 53:52
  until an orderly transition.
• 53:55
  And he's been threatened in the interim leader Rodriguez with a bigger price.
• 53:59
  If she resists, Washington U S is going to take control of Venezuelan oil.
• 54:05
  Uh, Trump is going to be, uh,
• 54:07
  claiming that the country's authorities will turn over, you know,
• 54:11
  we're going to give free oil, you know,
• 54:13
  not only are you going to come in and steal our oil, uh, you know, or now,
• 54:17
  you're going to let us harvest it or, or, uh, or, or mine it or whatever,
• 54:22
  pump it. And then you're going to take it for free.
• 54:26
  That's what he said yesterday.
• 54:28
  Rodriguez has vowed that her country will never return to being the colony of
• 54:32
  another empire.
• 54:33
  But she did say she was open to cooperation with the, with the Russians.
• 54:37
  The world is a, is a madhouse right now.
• 54:41
  It's crazy. Bunch of idiots. Um, here you go.
• 54:47
  Uh, let's, I'm going to share one of these opinion pieces.
• 54:51
  Um, let's see, which I liked them all.
• 54:56
  Um, the $9 billion scam of the Minnesota childcare fraud,
• 55:01
  uh, Africa demanding colonial justice. They want to, uh,
• 55:06
  they want to have codification of colonialism as a crime against humanity.
• 55:12
  Um, they talked about, here's a piece that is 2025.
• 55:17
  It was dismal for Western Europe and it's going to get worse.
• 55:21
  Um, the Starmer regime is turning Britain into a police state with a crackdown
• 55:28
  on people.
• 55:29
  NATO's scandal ridden boss once war with Russia to be the next train wreck.
• 55:35
  And, uh, the Epstein files will never close.
• 55:38
  But the one I'm going to share with you, um,
• 55:43
  is the story on Maduro,
• 55:48
  excuse me, doing, uh, uh, fairly poorly
• 55:54
  through the centuries,
• 55:55
  Latin America has seen leaders that stood for independence,
• 55:58
  but traders willing to sell out to colonial powers exist to,
• 56:02
  this is written by a girl named Nadia Romanenko.
• 56:06
  She's a political analyst and it's a pretty good story.
• 56:09
  So I'm going to share it with you. It's, um, not too long.
• 56:13
  So it's just a few minutes. So I'll, I'll share it with you.
• 56:16
  But I've stolen this from Nadia Romanenko, uh,
• 56:20
  Latin America's history is not simply a chronicle of poverty or instability as
• 56:26
  it is so often portrayed in Western discourse.
• 56:28
  It is more fundamentally a record of resistance,
• 56:32
  resistance to colonial domination,
• 56:35
  to foreign exploitation and to locally elites willing to trade their nation's
• 56:40
  future for personal power and external approval.
• 56:45
  Venezuelan president Nicholas Maduro kidnapped by us forces and about to be put
• 56:50
  on trial on nebulous and transparently politically motivated charges joins a
• 56:57
  particular lineup of Latin American leaders across different countries,
• 57:01
  ideologies and political systems.
• 57:04
  The region has produced leaders who despite their laws share one defining
• 57:08
  trait.
• 57:09
  They place national sovereignty and popular interests above obedience to
• 57:14
  empire.
• 57:16
  So that a country should be able to resist being a colony.
• 57:21
  And uh, you know,
• 57:23
  I want someone to say whether or not this colony, I mean,
• 57:28
  Trump Trump was flat out. We run Venezuela period. You know,
• 57:32
  from the very beginning,
• 57:34
  the first Latin American heroes emerge in open defiance to call it a colonial
• 57:38
  rule.
• 57:39
  Figures such as Miguel Hidalgo and Castilla and Jose Maria Morales in Mexico
• 57:45
  didn't merely seek independence as an abstract ideal.
• 57:49
  They tried tied it to social justice, abolishing slavery,
• 57:54
  dismantling race hierarchy, returning land to indigenous communities.
• 57:58
  Simon Bolivar in whose honor the country of Bolivia is named and Jose Maria
• 58:03
  de San Martin, a national hero in Argentina, Chile and Peru,
• 58:08
  carried this struggle across an entire continent,
• 58:12
  breaking the grip of Spanish imperial power and imagining a United Latin
• 58:17
  America strong enough to resist future domination.
• 58:21
  Their unfinished dreams still haunts the region.
• 58:24
  Yet independence from Spain did not mean freedom from imperial pressure.
• 58:30
  By the late 19th century,
• 58:32
  the U S openly declared Latin America,
• 58:35
  its sphere of influence treating it not as a collection of sovereign nation,
• 58:40
  but as strategic backyard. From that point forward,
• 58:44
  the central political question facing Latin American leaders became starkly
• 58:49
  clear, resist external domination or accommodate it.
• 58:55
  And by the way, I'm going to pause right here before I get back to the story.
• 58:58
  This is exactly what they are talking about. Our colony,
• 59:03
  Venezuela, according to Donald Trump, we run it. It's ours, our property,
• 59:08
  our oil, our stuff. He's stolen it.
• 59:11
  Basically they're going to give us 30 to 50 billion barrel or a million barrels
• 59:15
  of, uh, of oil. They're going to give us all access.
• 59:19
  We get all of their resources, everything. They don't get rich. We do. Why?
• 59:24
  Because we are the colonialists. You're nothing but the colony.
• 59:29
  This is the King that, uh, you know,
• 59:31
  that was in England that the U S started a colony and said,
• 59:35
  who the hell are you guys coming over here? We won that war.
• 59:38
  Now we're creating the same more in another place and it's bullshit.
• 59:42
  I'm going to get back there. Uh,
• 59:44
  the last of the paragraph was resist external domination or accommodate it.
• 59:48
  Those who resisted often paid a heavy price. Augusto, Caesar, Sandino's,
• 59:53
  guerrilla war forced us troops out of Nicaragua only for him to be murdered by
• 59:58
  us. Back strongman, Anastasio Somoza,
• 1:00:01
  whose family would rule the country for decades.
• 1:00:05
  Salvador Allende attempted a democratic and peaceful path to socialism in Chile
• 1:00:11
  nationalizing strategic industries and asserting economic independence only to
• 1:00:15
  be overthrown in a violent coup backed from abroad.
• 1:00:20
  Fidel Castro and Ernesto Shea Guevara turned Cuba into a same symbol admired by
• 1:00:27
  some despised by others of what open defiance to us hegemony looks like in
• 1:00:32
  practice, economic strangulation,
• 1:00:36
  sabotage isolation and permanent hostilities.
• 1:00:40
  Maduro predecessor Hugo Chavez working in a different era and through elections
• 1:00:46
  rather than armed struggle revived this tradition in the 21st century.
• 1:00:52
  He reclaimed control over Venezuela's oil.
• 1:00:56
  He expanded social programs and push for Latin American integration that was
• 1:01:02
  independent of Washington.
• 1:01:04
  He directly challenged the neoliberal order imposed across the region in the
• 1:01:11
  nineties. Whatever one thinks of the outcomes,
• 1:01:14
  the principle was unmistakable.
• 1:01:16
  National resources should serve the nation,
• 1:01:20
  not foreign shareholders.
• 1:01:23
  Opposed to these figures is a darker gallery leaders whose rule depended on
• 1:01:28
  surrendering sovereignty piece by piece.
• 1:01:31
  Anastasio Somoza, Fulgencio Batista in Cuba,
• 1:01:36
  the Duvaliers in Haiti,
• 1:01:37
  Manuel Estrada Cabrera and Jorge Ubico in Guatemala and others like them
• 1:01:43
  govern through repression at home and obedience abroad.
• 1:01:47
  Their countries are laboratories for foreign corporations,
• 1:01:51
  especially us interests while their populations endure poverty,
• 1:01:56
  terror and extreme inequality.
• 1:01:59
  The infamous banana republic is not an accident of geography.
• 1:02:04
  It's the logical result of policies that subordinate national development to
• 1:02:10
  external profit.
• 1:02:12
  Even when repression softened and and elections replace open dictatorship,
• 1:02:17
  collaboration persisted.
• 1:02:20
  Neoliberal reformers such as Fernando Balonde Terry and Alberto Fujimori in
• 1:02:25
  Peru dismantled state control over strategic sectors,
• 1:02:30
  privatized national interest assets and aligned their countries ever more tightly
• 1:02:35
  with the US led economic model.
• 1:02:38
  The promise prosperity rarely arrives.
• 1:02:42
  What does arrive are weakened institution,
• 1:02:46
  social devastation and in Fujimori's case,
• 1:02:50
  mass human rights abuses carried out under the banner of stability and
• 1:02:55
  security. In very recent history,
• 1:02:58
  the figure of Juan Guido in Venezuela illustrates a modern version of the same
• 1:03:04
  pattern.
• 1:03:05
  Political legitimacy sought not from the population but from foreign capitals by
• 1:03:12
  openly inviting external pressure and intervention against his own country.
• 1:03:19
  He embodies a longstanding elite fantasy.
• 1:03:22
  The power can be imported even if sovereignty is the price to be paid.
• 1:03:28
  Latin America's lesson is brutally consistent.
• 1:03:32
  Imperial powers can change their rhetoric,
• 1:03:34
  but the logic remains the same.
• 1:03:37
  They reward obedience temporarily,
• 1:03:41
  discard collaborators when convenient,
• 1:03:44
  punish defiance relentlessly. Does that sound like Donald Trump?
• 1:03:48
  What he just said? Meanwhile, those leaders who insist on autonomy,
• 1:03:52
  whether they be priests, revolutionaries, presidents or guerrilla fighters are
• 1:03:58
  demonized, sanctioned, overthrown or killed to defend sovereignty and liberty.
• 1:04:04
  Defending Latin America has never meant perfection.
• 1:04:07
  It has meant choosing dignity over dependency, development over plunder,
• 1:04:12
  which is what we're doing, and proper legitimacy over foreign approval.
• 1:04:17
  This is why these figures endure in popular memory as symbols of a region that
• 1:04:22
  has never stopped fighting to belong to itself.
• 1:04:26
  But Donald Trump is telling them they do not belong to themselves.
• 1:04:31
  It is no longer Maduro's country. Remember that quote? It's not his country.
• 1:04:36
  It's our country.
• 1:04:37
  They're going to do what we say or we're going to do it again. Why?
• 1:04:40
  Because we're a big bad bully and we want your resources and we're stealing
• 1:04:44
  them. Period. End of sentence. We're taking them.
• 1:04:49
  This is what the rest of the world is fighting. And unfortunately,
• 1:04:52
  I think this is the beginning of the end and not the beginning of a golden age.
• 1:05:00
  This is not the beginning of a golden age.
• 1:05:02
  Those people who are going to make money out of this aren't us.
• 1:05:07
  It's not us. This helps us not at all. You know, what do we get out of it?
• 1:05:12
  Nothing will be now. Now people like me, we travel abroad.
• 1:05:16
  Jesus will be lucky to not be knifed by somebody else as abroad. You know,
• 1:05:21
  we're, we're lucky there's not mass hysteria here in the U S you know,
• 1:05:26
  it's nuts. What we're, what we're going through. And I don't care. You know,
• 1:05:30
  you can believe me or not, but, uh, there you go. Um,
• 1:05:34
  where is this CIA officer turned a Soviet spy died in an American prison?
• 1:05:42
  Which one? I gotta find out about this.
• 1:05:46
  Aldrich Ames,
• 1:05:47
  who is 84 was serving a life sentence without parole for espionage.
• 1:05:53
  Former CIA officer Aldrich Ames,
• 1:05:57
  whose espionage for the Soviet union and later Russia had consequences for us
• 1:06:03
  intelligence died at age 84 while serving a life sentence in an American jail.
• 1:06:08
  According to the federal Bureau of prisons, he passed away January 5th.
• 1:06:13
  Ames was Russia's most valuable agent in the late 20th century.
• 1:06:17
  His actions resulted in significant operational success.
• 1:06:21
  84 died in prison. Let's see.
• 1:06:28
  He had defected because he had a disillusionment with anti-Soviet policies.
• 1:06:35
  And I won't share that all with you.
• 1:06:38
  I tell you what crazy,
• 1:06:41
  crazy sauce is everywhere upon us.
• 1:06:45
  I wanted to find that YouTube video with a mere Shimer. If I could,
• 1:06:50
  where's my history. And, uh, I gotta get there.
• 1:06:54
  La la la la la show more. No, I want to see that.
• 1:06:58
  I want my history.
• 1:07:02
  I thought that was easy to get, to get somewhere,
• 1:07:06
  to get your history of things that you had seen before.
• 1:07:10
  But maybe I can just do a search for, um, for, um,
• 1:07:15
  mere Shimer and see what he's got recently.
• 1:07:23
  I like listening to him and he's actually pretty well versed.
• 1:07:27
  But watch out. There's some fake ones that come out too. He was on, um,
• 1:07:33
  something freedom, um, finding freedom or something with that judge.
• 1:07:38
  Do you remember that? But this one was much more recent.
• 1:07:43
  This was just in the last couple of days. And, uh, it's this,
• 1:07:48
  he, he was putting some pretty serious, um,
• 1:07:51
  some pretty serious stuff in there. Um,
• 1:07:54
  so he's a good one to listen to. And I,
• 1:07:58
  I wish I could find the correct article that I was talking about,
• 1:08:01
  but I'm going to go back to, uh, my opinion pieces. Cause I can't find it.
• 1:08:06
  Did you hear the big news of today? It's been all over the TVs in here and,
• 1:08:11
  uh, a U S immigration officer. Um,
• 1:08:15
  no Christie gnome has already accused her of domestic terrorism and then they
• 1:08:21
  shot and killed her, I guess. Um,
• 1:08:24
  yeah. Identified by her family. She was 37 years old.
• 1:08:28
  Renee good was her name. So search for Renee good.
• 1:08:31
  U S immigration officer fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis Wednesday,
• 1:08:36
  prompting protests in a standoff between Democrat run Minnesota and the white
• 1:08:41
  house. The incident occurred East 34th street. It's all,
• 1:08:45
  there's a video of it all. It's been on TV. Um,
• 1:08:49
  and he's 34 state law enforcement officers have previously clashed with
• 1:08:53
  protesters.
• 1:08:54
  Video from the scene shows immigration and customs enforcement officers
• 1:09:00
  approaching a dark SUV stopped in the middle of a snowy road as an agent tries
• 1:09:06
  to open the door. What do you do in opening the door?
• 1:09:08
  You can't open the door. You know, he can't open it.
• 1:09:14
  Um, the driver pulls her vehicle in reverse and attempts to drive away.
• 1:09:18
  The agent pulls out a handgun and fires three shots after which the vehicle
• 1:09:22
  drives off and crashes into two of the cars.
• 1:09:26
  So he opens the door and shoots her. Um,
• 1:09:29
  Homeland security, um,
• 1:09:32
  secretary Christie gnome defending this said good was using a vehicle.
• 1:09:36
  This is how they've advertised it so far.
• 1:09:38
  The video doesn't look like she's trying to kill an officer or his colleagues.
• 1:09:42
  This is an act of domestic terrorism.
• 1:09:45
  Our officers acted quickly and defensively shot to protect himself and the
• 1:09:50
  people around him. He shouldn't open the freaking door.
• 1:09:54
  Department of Homeland security spokeswoman,
• 1:09:56
  Tricia McLaughlin said officers were conducting targeted operations when groups
• 1:10:03
  of citizens began trying to block ice vehicles.
• 1:10:07
  And then of course they're advertising it as good attempted to run over the
• 1:10:12
  agents. Minneapolis mayor,
• 1:10:15
  Jacob Fry rejected DH claim that the shooting was justified top of my head.
• 1:10:20
  I don't think you kill somebody for some asshole opening the door to your car.
• 1:10:23
  That's a, that's not how it works. And why aren't they talking about warrants?
• 1:10:28
  Did he have a warrant to open that door? He never should have opened the door.
• 1:10:32
  And I say that, you know, I've had officers try to open the door.
• 1:10:36
  They can't open your door.
• 1:10:37
  That is an illegal search when they open that door if they don't have a warrant.
• 1:10:42
  And uh, so she calls it an act of domestic terrorism.
• 1:10:47
  And we were conducting targeted operations and, and here on, you know,
• 1:10:52
  I reviewed last night with our web director, um,
• 1:10:57
  our website for a civic outlaws.
• 1:11:00
  I've been delaying a little bit talking too much about it because the website
• 1:11:03
  isn't quite done. But this is the type of stuff, you know,
• 1:11:08
  I can't tell you now I don't practice law anymore.
• 1:11:10
  I don't give legal advice. I don't play a lawyer on TV, nothing like that.
• 1:11:14
  But I did practice law for a long time and I had a,
• 1:11:20
  a tendency to go after a holes like this and I'd take this case.
• 1:11:25
  I would, I would sue unless he had a warrant. You know,
• 1:11:29
  I want to know if he had a warrant. You can't.
• 1:11:31
  What exception allows him to do an illegal search of her car? There isn't one.
• 1:11:35
  They haven't talked about it on any of this. And uh,
• 1:11:39
  departmental Homeland Security spot.
• 1:11:40
  And this is the type of case that I would get and I would send butt loads.
• 1:11:45
  What we do is send a button with civic outlaws and we have a companion place
• 1:11:50
  that isn't done yet either. We're still in the research phases,
• 1:11:53
  phases of how we do it called the modern law ecosystem and that ecosystem.
• 1:11:58
  If you can put, um, you know,
• 1:12:01
  lawyers are part of it or can be,
• 1:12:03
  but it's mostly other non lawyer stuff. We provide, um,
• 1:12:08
  um, paralegal services, research services,
• 1:12:12
  case management services. We, we don't talk to your clients.
• 1:12:16
  We don't want that. We do. We, for a lawyer, you talk to your clients, not us.
• 1:12:20
  We just would, but we'll happily do the work for an hourly rate so you don't have
• 1:12:24
  to hire your own paralegals. You know,
• 1:12:26
  we'll have a staff of our own paralegals and for a lawyer it's a good deal
• 1:12:30
  because you know, a lot of lawyers would be far more,
• 1:12:35
  far more, I don't know how to say it, um,
• 1:12:39
  productive if they could make money when they weren't in court.
• 1:12:43
  And the way to do that is have a good staff,
• 1:12:45
  but it's hard to pay for a good staff and, uh,
• 1:12:48
  and still live at a level level that a lawyer is supposed to live at.
• 1:12:52
  So we're given an alternative.
• 1:12:54
  It's a platform that we're creating that will allow, uh, you know,
• 1:12:58
  case management and all this stuff completely, completely, uh,
• 1:13:01
  what do you call it? Isolated. Anyway,
• 1:13:04
  we want to go after with, with the two different organizations.
• 1:13:07
  We would start with if people wanted to log into a and see what you got with you
• 1:13:11
  have overreach of, uh, of police officers and stuff like that. This is,
• 1:13:15
  this is clearly crap. You know, the,
• 1:13:17
  the equation that we get at,
• 1:13:19
  we shoot three rounds into a victim who's trying to stop you from opening a
• 1:13:24
  door to a vehicle and you call it, you know,
• 1:13:27
  using a vehicle to try to kill an officer.
• 1:13:30
  Everybody backs the officer. I don't not back the officer,
• 1:13:34
  but I have serious questions and the serious question is what in the hell were
• 1:13:37
  you doing opening the door? You know,
• 1:13:39
  we could go and research that and send out policy memos and search through ice
• 1:13:45
  and everywhere else to see what training this man had to find out whether or not
• 1:13:50
  he was ever trained that you can't open someone's. Could you,
• 1:13:54
  if he couldn't do it in a house, he can't do it in a car.
• 1:13:58
  So he has to have a warrant to get into a house.
• 1:14:01
  He's got to have a warrant to get into a car unless he's got somebody who's
• 1:14:05
  conducted a felon. There's limited, limited exceptions, very limited.
• 1:14:10
  And you have to get to the bottom of this before you ever file suit because you
• 1:14:15
  want to get past a rule 12 B six motion, which is a motion to dismiss.
• 1:14:19
  And so what I suggest is you use a civic outlaws.
• 1:14:23
  You become a civic warrior yourself by donating to civic outlaws.
• 1:14:27
  You pay a monthly fee to us. We haven't figured out what it is.
• 1:14:31
  And you get, you know, newsletters.
• 1:14:32
  We help you go after a government to sunshine requests like some of those we've
• 1:14:37
  shared in the past week or so about that with the overreach of alcohol and
• 1:14:41
  tobacco control. And it's it's good stuff,
• 1:14:45
  you know? Anyway,
• 1:14:49
  I did that in the middle of the, of the article.
• 1:14:51
  I was reading Homeland Security secretary. Noam defended the agent, of course,
• 1:14:55
  saying that good. Well, I, I do, you know, first thing first defend the agent,
• 1:14:59
  you know, maybe, you know,
• 1:15:00
  as long as he was acting appropriately the way he should have,
• 1:15:03
  I don't have any problem with it. Even though the result was murder of a,
• 1:15:08
  you know, was killing of a lady,
• 1:15:09
  but you got to give a hell of a lot more than that.
• 1:15:12
  He was trying to open the door. That fact alone,
• 1:15:16
  he better have a warrant if he's opening that door.
• 1:15:18
  And a lot of these officers don't understand that they walk up and they, you know,
• 1:15:22
  they open the door, they open your door and say, can you step out of the car,
• 1:15:26
  please? No, I'm not getting out of the car. No way.
• 1:15:31
  You're going to kill me, kill me in my car. You know,
• 1:15:34
  my family have a better chance of getting it.
• 1:15:36
  I don't want to get out and take a chance.
• 1:15:38
  I'd get in the wrong officer because there are plenty of a whole police officers.
• 1:15:42
  There's plenty of them. And I've been targeted by him before. You know,
• 1:15:46
  I forget the guy's name, but I've absolutely been targeted for him.
• 1:15:49
  They've chased me every night. Anyway, she says, Christie, no,
• 1:15:54
  it was an act of domestic terrorism on officer of hours,
• 1:15:59
  acted quickly and defensively shooting to protect
• 1:16:03
  himself and the people around him. Well,
• 1:16:09
  she's tied into that answer now that she says that he acted quickly and
• 1:16:13
  defensively.
• 1:16:15
  So you pull a weapon and shoot somebody three times because you wouldn't into
• 1:16:18
  the door. I want to know the Homeland security spokesman,
• 1:16:23
  Tricia McLaughlin said officers here's what they were doing.
• 1:16:26
  We're conducting targeted operations.
• 1:16:30
  When groups of citizens began trying to block ice vehicles, she said,
• 1:16:33
  good attempted to run over agents.
• 1:16:37
  I'd have to see that, that fact, Minneapolis. And I saw the video.
• 1:16:41
  It didn't look like that to me. Minneapolis mayor,
• 1:16:44
  Jacob Fry rejected the DHS claim that the shooting was justified.
• 1:16:48
  Having seen the video myself as the mayor of Minneapolis,
• 1:16:53
  I want to tell everybody directly that this is bullshit.
• 1:16:58
  He said, during a news conference,
• 1:17:01
  he added that the agent was recklessly using his power.
• 1:17:06
  And here's this new, what else? He said to ice,
• 1:17:09
  get the fuck out of Minneapolis. He said, we do not want you here.
• 1:17:14
  Your stated reason for being in this city is to create safety,
• 1:17:18
  some kind of safety, and you are doing exactly the opposite.
• 1:17:23
  This shooting sparked protest in Minneapolis.
• 1:17:26
  Governor Tim Walz called for common restraint,
• 1:17:29
  adding that he would deploy the national guard in the case of riot.
• 1:17:32
  He urged federal agents not to intervene any further.
• 1:17:36
  Good is survived by a female partner and a six year old child.
• 1:17:40
  So I'm, I wonder if I can, if I can listen to ice,
• 1:17:44
  get the fuck out of Minneapolis.
• 1:17:48
  Here. We're going to, we're going to share this. I'm sure Jr will later.
• 1:17:51
  And I apologize for the language today. You know, I have to be an adult. Oh,
• 1:17:55
  it looks like it was already planned. I hadn't moved the lever down the paddle.
• 1:17:59
  So here's his a one minute speech. You ready? This is a fry.
• 1:18:03
  Who is the governor of Minneapolis? Jacob Fry.
• 1:18:12
  Where is he to ice? Get the fuck out of Minneapolis.
• 1:18:16
  Your stated reason for being in this city is to create some kind of safety and
• 1:18:20
  you are doing exactly the opposite. Somebody is dead. That's on you.
• 1:18:25
  This was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in
• 1:18:29
  somebody dying to the family. I'm so deeply sorry.
• 1:18:33
  We're going to be working towards justice as quickly as we possibly can right
• 1:18:36
  now. And justice is what we've all got to get.
• 1:18:38
  We're going to make sure that in this very difficult moment,
• 1:18:41
  we do not take the bait that these ice agents are trying to create.
• 1:18:45
  And that the federal government to be clear,
• 1:18:47
  wants people are going to want to exercise their first amendment rights,
• 1:18:51
  but please do so safely. It's Brian O'Hara. He's like a chief of police.
• 1:18:57
  And lawfully to ensure that we do not have any further tragedy in this city or
• 1:19:02
  destruction. We can show them the kind of courage, bravery, love,
• 1:19:06
  and compassion that makes Minneapolis, Minneapolis.
• 1:19:09
  Let's unite around hope and love and peace and getting justice.
• 1:19:14
  You can agree with that or not. I don't care,
• 1:19:17
  but my first reaction to watching that video is as I
• 1:19:22
  gave it to you, that is my first reaction.
• 1:19:24
  I just found out about this when I walked in and it was all over Jr's TVs.
• 1:19:28
  Um, and they showed the video and you can watch that video and decide for
• 1:19:33
  yourself. I don't care what you think from my point of view,
• 1:19:36
  unless that officer had a warrant,
• 1:19:38
  he can't open that door and anything else is on him, not her.
• 1:19:42
  So I'd take that case. No doubt. I'd do that. I'll take the case.
• 1:19:48
  I can't, obviously I don't practice law, but as civic outlaws,
• 1:19:52
  we could get all the data together for you. We could get all of the, uh,
• 1:19:56
  all of the, uh, what'd you call it? Um,
• 1:19:59
  sunshine requests for you and start getting on because that's, you know what?
• 1:20:03
  That's the hardest part of it all is when you go, uh, crap, where are we?
• 1:20:08
  We've only got 10 minutes left. I've rented the whole time.
• 1:20:10
  I've been on a rant the entire time. I shared some valuable information,
• 1:20:14
  I hope. But, uh, Oh, by the way, I have decided, uh,
• 1:20:18
  just so you know that I will no longer be doing Friday mornings. I'm, uh,
• 1:20:23
  I'm going to take a breather on Fridays. I I'm going to go, uh,
• 1:20:27
  Monday through Thursday, 7 30 AM to 9 AM.
• 1:20:32
  And I may actually start doing either a Saturday morning
• 1:20:37
  program. Uh, cause I always liked that. I liked the Saturday morning.
• 1:20:41
  And maybe I'll just switch my final one to Saturday,
• 1:20:44
  but at a reasonable time, like nine to noon,
• 1:20:47
  I can sit in here and rant and I'll talk to Jr about it and see what I can do.
• 1:20:51
  But, but I like doing it. And, uh, I like Saturdays as well.
• 1:20:54
  So maybe we'll, uh, get together and, uh, uh, figure that out.
• 1:20:58
  But Fridays are going to be out for me. I'm not going to do it.
• 1:21:02
  So you won't be joining me tomorrow from seven 32, uh, uh, nine.
• 1:21:08
  And, uh, next time I will be here will be Monday at
• 1:21:13
  7 30 AM central standard time live from
• 1:21:18
  the Lake Cozark real estate of the art studio. Uh,
• 1:21:22
  I want to tell you that, um, our biggest day, uh, in radio is Wednesday,
• 1:21:27
  but Thursday is also a big day for us.
• 1:21:32
  And, uh, you know, it's every day is a big day at damn radio.
• 1:21:37
  Uh, you have me in the mornings, you have Jr, a really big shoe, uh,
• 1:21:42
  two to 4 PM, four to 6 PM. You have search for solutions. And on Friday, uh,
• 1:21:47
  it won't be starting with me Jr. I'll have to remove me from there.
• 1:21:50
  We have an 18 at nine. We have a really big shoe.
• 1:21:53
  We have search for solutions and I of the beholder. Uh,
• 1:21:57
  if I choose to do a Saturday, which I might,
• 1:22:00
  it'd be like Saturday from nine to 11 or something like that.
• 1:22:04
