- 0:31Speaker 3: Is he gonna go to Greece for some reason?
- 0:33Speaker 2: There's been an announcement that he may go?
- 0:36Speaker 1: And why is that? Is that because of Urdawan and Turkey?
- 0:40Speaker 1: Or is it because we want to do more with
- 0:42Speaker 1: the Greek people? Why would that be?
- 0:44Speaker 3: Well, you know you have that whole area is in
- 0:50Speaker 3: not turmoil. You know you've got Turkey. We don't know
- 0:54Speaker 3: what the heck is going on with the I'm not
- 0:56Speaker 3: sure NATO trust Turkey one, I.
- 0:59Speaker 2: Don't do, you know?
- 1:01Speaker 3: And Greece has been the pivotal thing in that area
- 1:06Speaker 3: other than Turkey. So we need Greece to do the
- 1:10Speaker 3: right things between Greece and Cyprus, because Cypress is right.
- 1:13Speaker 3: You were there, yeah, right right off the coast of Israel.
- 1:16Speaker 2: Right, they're thirty minutes away from tom.
- 1:18Speaker 3: Don't get how I used to sell those those Cypriot oranges. Yes,
- 1:23Speaker 3: right off the coast, right off the coast of Cypress.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:27Speaker 3: The Jews came into Prestides in Augustina and brought up
- 1:30Speaker 3: all those strangers.
- 1:31Speaker 1: No, they love them. No, Greece is still thank God
- 1:34Speaker 1: for Greece in Europe. But he's a bad guy, or
- 1:36Speaker 1: the one I was told. And I was in Athens
- 1:38Speaker 1: last summer. You know better than me that he's still
- 1:41Speaker 1: flying missions over the Greek islands.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Still, is that true? He tests them.
- 1:49Speaker 3: They test each other, you know how they are, the
- 1:54Speaker 3: Greeks and Turks, they test each other. Yeah, there hasn't
- 1:57Speaker 3: been any serious altercations or or whatever. And you know,
- 2:04Speaker 3: I'm from the island of n where I was born,
- 2:06Speaker 3: and that's right off the coast of Turkey. So I
- 2:09Speaker 3: saw that last week at the pre independence date parade.
- 2:12Speaker 3: The Minister of Defense of Greece comes that comes over
- 2:16Speaker 3: to say hello, and I shake his hand, I said,
- 2:19Speaker 3: and I whispering this year. Make sure you defend he
- 2:23Speaker 3: said that. I said that, that's great, that's great. I mean,
- 2:26Speaker 3: you know, look, he took over you know what happened
- 2:30Speaker 3: in the nineteen what was it, nineteen fifties, nineteen sixties
- 2:34Speaker 3: with Cyprus. They used an excuse for some very good
- 2:41Speaker 3: one and oh, my god, that's true. There must be
- 2:44Speaker 3: a listen live, John Cancel, Titi's on sitting front.
- 2:49Speaker 2: My god, I got it check, got it on my phone.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Nicely done, and fell asleep.
- 2:54Speaker 3: But I know I'd have to be on with it.
- 2:58Speaker 3: In Turkey used NATO weapons and NATO information to go
- 3:06Speaker 3: in and take over the northern part of Cyprus. Yes,
- 3:10Speaker 3: and it was wrong. Yeah, and Kissinger quasi backed them up.
- 3:15Speaker 3: And now is wrong. And I never really understood why
- 3:20Speaker 3: Kissinger allowed that to happen and didn't say to President Nixon,
- 3:25Speaker 3: that's wrong.
- 3:26Speaker 2: They shouldn't be doing that. He never explained it. One
- 3:27Speaker 2: more thing.
- 3:28Speaker 1: On Greece, like in Israel, for example, Prime Minister BBAs
- 3:32Speaker 1: all the power the president, who's a nice guy. I
- 3:35Speaker 1: get along with them very nicely, but he's got no power,
- 3:38Speaker 1: he's got nothing. I remember when I went to my
- 3:40Speaker 1: tour in Athens, last summer, I passed by the prime
- 3:43Speaker 1: minister and a president there too. There's both of them,
- 3:46Speaker 1: but much like Israel, the prime minister has the power
- 3:48Speaker 1: or no power, Okay.
- 3:51Speaker 3: And the mitche Takis, who you know I know pretty well.
- 3:58Speaker 3: He's been doing a decent job there and uh he's
- 4:01Speaker 3: been you know, he's wanting to meet with President Trump
- 4:08Speaker 3: and President Trump. You know, he's been busy. He's busy
- 4:10Speaker 3: fighting in the rest of the world kind of busy.
- 4:12Speaker 3: I mean, it's gonna be an interesting times on this
- 4:16Speaker 3: visit to I heard Gordon Change in his interview. Gordon
- 4:20Speaker 3: is a good guy. Uh, but on his electric vehicles,
- 4:23Speaker 3: he's probably more right than rule.
- 4:25Speaker 2: That when he's.
- 4:28Speaker 3: I think Iran, Iran has there's two Irans right now.
- 4:34Speaker 3: That's why Trump said what he said.
- 4:36Speaker 2: He said.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Trump said, uh, trifling with us. There's two Irans. There's
- 4:42Speaker 3: Iran that China wants them to make peace with Trump.
- 4:48Speaker 3: They need it because the other Iran don't the oil.
- 4:51Speaker 3: The other Iran doesn't want you know, war, they want nothing.
- 4:56Speaker 3: They just want war because the guy's in power. This
- 5:00Speaker 3: you know, remember the movie The Planet of the Apes.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Of course it's the chip Iran it's the chimpanzees and
- 5:08Speaker 3: the gorillas. Yeah, the gorillas want war, war, war, war.
- 5:12Speaker 3: The chimpanzees said, let's give piece of chance. Now, all
- 5:16Speaker 3: that said, all that above said, you still they're pushing
- 5:22Speaker 3: towards having a democratic government, a democratic Senate, and a
- 5:27Speaker 3: democratic Congress, whether the Iranians or the Chinese, because they're
- 5:35Speaker 3: gonna get away with everything. Yeah, they for some reason,
- 5:40Speaker 3: the Democratic Party has has gone the wrong direction. You know,
- 5:46Speaker 3: I believe, you know, I believe in common sense democrats,
- 5:49Speaker 3: common sense Republicans. Well, the uncommon sense Democrats are in charge.
- 5:55Speaker 3: The Democratic Socialists are in charge. And what happened is
- 6:00Speaker 3: the Democratic Socialists have taken over, have taken over the
- 6:06Speaker 3: Democratic Party.
- 6:07Speaker 2: You're right about that.
- 6:07Speaker 1: But even before that, before the DSA took over, the
- 6:10Speaker 1: Democrats were already rotten.
- 6:12Speaker 2: That it happens back to Trump. They were headed in
- 6:14Speaker 2: that direction.
- 6:15Speaker 1: Ever since Trump came down that escalator in twenty sixteen,
- 6:19Speaker 1: the Democrats have started the complete maniacs.
- 6:21Speaker 3: And I'll tell you what else happened. You know, we're
- 6:24Speaker 3: trying to cover a lot in only a few minutes.
- 6:28Speaker 3: In President Obama before he left town, he put in
- 6:35Speaker 3: two thousand of his people and made them civil service
- 6:39Speaker 3: jobs and infiltrated every department, every agency in the United
- 6:45Speaker 3: States of America that are loyal to the Obama versus
- 6:50Speaker 3: loyal to Trump forty five. And it took President Trump
- 6:56Speaker 3: four years on the beach, is that what you call it?
- 7:00Speaker 3: On the beach? On the beach for him to realize
- 7:03Speaker 3: what the heck is going on? That made Trump forty
- 7:07Speaker 3: seven the greatest president because it took those four years
- 7:11Speaker 3: on the beach for him to realize that he was
- 7:14Speaker 3: surrounded by a lot of stuff. I mean, I'll tell
- 7:16Speaker 3: you stories. I mean, if I tell you a quick
- 7:18Speaker 3: story that there was a person in the in the
- 7:22Speaker 3: Oval office, that it was an infiltrated officer and one
- 7:27Speaker 3: of my I don't want to say who turned it in.
- 7:32Speaker 3: And the person he turned it into and he was
- 7:34Speaker 3: going to do something about it, that person got fired,
- 7:38Speaker 3: the Obama person.
- 7:39Speaker 2: Stay, how about that?
- 7:40Speaker 1: Because there were great, great actors, great actors, they knew
- 7:45Speaker 1: their mission, and he put the best ones closer to
- 7:48Speaker 1: Trump than the other agencies, and they they infiltrated.
- 7:54Speaker 3: And guess what, Trump didn't have a chance. Trump forty
- 7:59Speaker 3: five had not a good chance. And the problem is
- 8:04Speaker 3: we have to win. The Republican Party has to win,
- 8:07Speaker 3: and it has to win big in America. And we
- 8:10Speaker 3: got to get one one vote, one American, one vote.
- 8:14Speaker 3: We got to pay, We got to make sure because
- 8:17Speaker 3: otherwise we had Tom Fitton on from Judicial Watch. I
- 8:20Speaker 3: don't know if you ever had Tom's great and he
- 8:24Speaker 3: eight hundred thousand votes in Washington State, a million votes
- 8:31Speaker 3: in New York City, New York State, a million that
- 8:33Speaker 3: shouldn't be voting now. In addition, so I asked him Tom,
- 8:40Speaker 3: how many left in the United States. He says, maybe
- 8:42Speaker 3: twenty four million. So right now, our our voting system
- 8:48Speaker 3: is compromised and we have to straighten out our voting system.
- 8:53Speaker 3: The other thing that Congress has to straighten out, and
- 8:56Speaker 3: I don't know how to do it, because you've got
- 8:58Speaker 3: to get control of of the Senate to be able
- 9:02Speaker 3: to do to complete sweep. They in the census, they
- 9:08Speaker 3: count migrants.
- 9:11Speaker 1: And illegal illegal illegal no migrants, genergrants, illegals.
- 9:16Speaker 2: They count everybody.
- 9:17Speaker 3: Every if there's a body there and he's still alive,
- 9:21Speaker 3: they count them right, just to get more votes in
- 9:25Speaker 3: the blue states. Sometimes, Listen, I don't want to fight
- 9:28Speaker 3: blue versus red. But the fact is right now the
- 9:32Speaker 3: blue is compromised. The Supreme the Supreme Court helped us
- 9:36Speaker 3: last week. The Socialist Party, which if they ran on
- 9:39Speaker 3: their own would get two percent of the vote of
- 9:44Speaker 3: the whole country. They realized that, and they use foreign
- 9:48Speaker 3: money coming in, foreign money coming in to take control
- 9:53Speaker 3: of the regular Democratic Party. And what happens is the
- 9:58Speaker 3: demo party Democratic Party. He has a chance, you know,
- 10:02Speaker 3: a lot of it. Look look at our friend, our
- 10:05Speaker 3: mutual friend, Doshchowitz. After eighty six years, eighty seven years,
- 10:10Speaker 3: he's party party, he's a public publican.
- 10:13Speaker 2: But he's a smart joke. He's a smart joke.
- 10:15Speaker 1: But if you're telling me the DSA that these candidates
- 10:19Speaker 1: for the most part have success because of foreign money,
- 10:22Speaker 1: the base John of the DSA candidates, the base of
- 10:26Speaker 1: the DSA wins, happens to be our mayor. So did
- 10:29Speaker 1: he win because of foreign money?
- 10:32Speaker 3: I don't know. We couldn't prove that. Remember, we were
- 10:35Speaker 3: we were trying, We were trying. I don't know that.
- 10:39Speaker 3: But I'll tell you what they told one of our friend,
- 10:42Speaker 3: mutual friends. They told one of our mutual friends, we
- 10:46Speaker 3: don't need New York Times. We don't need the New
- 10:49Speaker 3: York Post. We don't need a deal in news. We
- 10:51Speaker 3: don't need any of them because we press a button
- 10:55Speaker 3: and we got twelve million media supporters, true social media.
- 11:01Speaker 3: So it has changed as the war changed from from
- 11:09Speaker 3: battleships to drones. Now they have underwater drones, and there's
- 11:15Speaker 3: gonna be no more There's gonna be no more soldiers
- 11:18Speaker 3: hitting the beaches. You know what's gonna be robots. Robots,
- 11:22Speaker 3: robots hit it here first. I believe it. And guess what,
- 11:26Speaker 3: you remember the movie Terminator. Yeah, Well, we're building our
- 11:29Speaker 3: own terminators just like that, just like that.
- 11:31Speaker 2: Yeah, and so.
- 11:33Speaker 3: We terminator zero zero zero drones, underwater drones and you know,
- 11:41Speaker 3: space for us. You never know what we have up there.
- 11:44Speaker 3: I can't tell you.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I know, I know.
- 11:46Speaker 1: You believe that there is a whole bunch of you
- 11:49Speaker 1: believe there's actually aliens here.
- 11:51Speaker 2: That's a different conversation.
- 11:52Speaker 1: But do you believe we have actually have aliens here
- 11:54Speaker 1: here somewhere housing Eisenhower made a deal with who with
- 12:00Speaker 1: those aliens?
- 12:01Speaker 2: He did?
- 12:02Speaker 1: Yes, So you believe they are here right now? They
- 12:04Speaker 1: are here Area fifty one, somewhere they're somewhere somewhere. They
- 12:08Speaker 1: are underground. They're underwater in all over the place. And
- 12:16Speaker 1: who they are I don't know. Would you bet the
- 12:18Speaker 1: four billion dollars you have right now that is an
- 12:20Speaker 1: alien somewhere in New York?
- 12:22Speaker 2: Absolutely?
- 12:23Speaker 3: Really yes, then you really really feel that. No, No,
- 12:27Speaker 3: they're here. Wow, they're here. And one of the reasons, well,
- 12:31Speaker 3: I was on with Greg Kelly last week and he
- 12:35Speaker 3: was he was, if you look at the Washington Post
- 12:42Speaker 3: on July nineteen fifty two, fifty UFOs circling in the Capitol.
- 12:48Speaker 2: How do you know the UFOs thoughing? Not what else?
- 12:53Speaker 3: Maybe maybe phones? Maybe in nineteen fifty two, give me
- 12:56Speaker 3: a break, Well.
- 12:58Speaker 2: How do we know that?
- 12:58Speaker 1: Do we actually have a programs of water? Yes, it's
- 13:01Speaker 1: on the front page of the Washington Post. Mm hmm okay,
- 13:04Speaker 1: and our jets chased them, et cetera, et cetera. But
- 13:07Speaker 1: that was that was to get the president's attention. Okay,
- 13:10Speaker 1: and they got President Eisenhaus And now you.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Got my attention. And uh, because I've been vehmily against.
