- 0:02Speaker 1: A lot of fundamentals outdo what actual self interest and
- 0:10Speaker 1: an individual ONTs. This is the show. Oh right, everybody,
- 0:21Speaker 1: welcome to here on book Show on this Monday, January nineteenth.
- 0:26Speaker 1: This is our second show of the day. If you
- 0:28Speaker 1: caught the interview earlier today with our healthcare experts. All right,
- 0:34Speaker 1: so this evening show we kind of reversed it. Usually
- 0:37Speaker 1: we do the interview in the evening, but today we're
- 0:40Speaker 1: going to do our news update in the evening and
- 0:45Speaker 1: the interview we did already. All right, anything to remind
- 0:49Speaker 1: you of not really remember Tuesday show. Tomorrow's show is
- 0:53Speaker 1: typically an hour later than usual, and it might be
- 0:59Speaker 1: even later than that, so tomorrow will not be a
- 1:06Speaker 1: usual time. It'll be late anyway. Other than that, the
- 1:10Speaker 1: rest of the week should be fine, not traveling until
- 1:13Speaker 1: the week after that. And what else do I want
- 1:16Speaker 1: to remind you of? Nothing? Really, let's just jump into
- 1:19Speaker 1: the insanity. Today's show is all about insanity. I mean
- 1:25Speaker 1: one insane individual in particular. I mean almost every show
- 1:28Speaker 1: is about him because he dominates through us. He sucks
- 1:32Speaker 1: there out of any other news story that exists. But
- 1:37Speaker 1: today is all about all about the insanity. The Trump
- 1:41Speaker 1: is creating. Let's start with Greenland. Greenland, Greenland, the island
- 1:47Speaker 1: of Greenland. The Trump has had his ion really in
- 1:50Speaker 1: the first administration, didn't do much then, and now it's
- 1:56Speaker 1: come back in the second administration to demand the den
- 2:00Speaker 1: cand over Greenland or the Greenland sell to the United
- 2:04Speaker 1: States or whatever. But the rhetoric is getting more and
- 2:08Speaker 1: more and more aggressive with time. It's becoming more and more.
- 2:15Speaker 1: You know, we're just going to take it. And that
- 2:17Speaker 1: was the rhetoric last week. Last week, the rhetoric got
- 2:20Speaker 1: to to the point of Donald Trump saying we're just
- 2:24Speaker 1: gonna take it. We're going to annex it. Stephen Miller
- 2:27Speaker 1: said on television. He said, the new know bane of
- 2:30Speaker 1: international competition is going to be polar competition. As if
- 2:36Speaker 1: I mean that's true, there's going to be increased polar competition,
- 2:38Speaker 1: but this competition lots of other places. Look at Ukraine,
- 2:44Speaker 1: look at the South China. See anyway, there is more
- 2:49Speaker 1: and more resources are being spent by our nations adversaries
- 2:53Speaker 1: and rivals. Is the ability to control movement, navigation, lanes
- 2:57Speaker 1: of travel in the polar an Arctic region. And that's
- 3:03Speaker 1: why we need Greenland. We're told Remember, we have NATO
- 3:07Speaker 1: allies to control much of the Arctic region. Big ally
- 3:12Speaker 1: is you know, We've got Norway, and then we've got Denmark,
- 3:16Speaker 1: who controls Greenland, who controls a big chunk of the
- 3:20Speaker 1: Arctic region. And then of course the biggest chunk of
- 3:23Speaker 1: the Arctic region that is not held by the Russians
- 3:26Speaker 1: is held by Canadians. You would think we would be
- 3:29Speaker 1: really nice to Canadians because we need them for the
- 3:32Speaker 1: defense of the Artic Region, but no, we're nasty the Canadians,
- 3:36Speaker 1: and indeed have encouraged the Canadians, or not encouraged, but
- 3:43Speaker 1: created an incentive structure where it makes sense of the
- 3:45Speaker 1: Canadians to rush of the Chinese and get attention and
- 3:49Speaker 1: love from them instead of from us. But again, overall,
- 3:53Speaker 1: NATO controls a big chunk of the Artic and through
- 3:56Speaker 1: our NATO allies and working with a NATO alas, we
- 3:59Speaker 1: could secure the Artic Region against Russia and China. China's
- 4:04Speaker 1: at a huge, huge, humongous disadvantage because it actually has
- 4:10Speaker 1: no access to the Arctic region. It is not an
- 4:14Speaker 1: Arctic nation, it doesn't have any allies other than maybe
- 4:17Speaker 1: now Canada, with access to Artic region. China's at a
- 4:21Speaker 1: huge disadvantage. It doesn't have a navy that can really
- 4:24Speaker 1: leave the South China see easily without without sacrificing deterrence
- 4:30Speaker 1: in the South China. See there is, there is you
- 4:36Speaker 1: know what is exactly the risk? Anyway, Miller adds that
- 4:41Speaker 1: Denmark cannot defend Greenland. It just it's too weak of
- 4:45Speaker 1: a military, too small of an economy. He says, quote
- 4:48Speaker 1: to control the territory, and this is according to he says,
- 4:52Speaker 1: five hundred years of law, five hundred years of law.
- 4:55Speaker 1: To control a territory, you have to be able to
- 4:56Speaker 1: defend the territory, improve a territory. Inhabita to Denmark has
- 5:01Speaker 1: failed at every single one of these tests. Really, it
- 5:05Speaker 1: seems to control the territory. It's been able to defend
- 5:08Speaker 1: it because nobody's attacked it, and it's improved both Greenland
- 5:13Speaker 1: and of course inhabited of the territory. Here they will
- 5:17Speaker 1: wants to live in Greenland only about fifty five thousand people.
- 5:21Speaker 1: But by this logic, and this is the logic, by
- 5:23Speaker 1: the way of might makes right. In other words, we
- 5:26Speaker 1: the United States can take Greenland, and therefore we shouldn't
- 5:32Speaker 1: take it, Denmark cannot defend it, and then for five
- 5:38Speaker 1: hundred years of law says that they should not own it.
- 5:44Speaker 1: Miller has stated previously, nobody's going to fight the United
- 5:47Speaker 1: States militarily over the future of Greenland, So might makes right.
- 5:51Speaker 1: We're just gonnaals in there and take it. I mean,
- 5:53Speaker 1: if that's the logic, then why not just take Denmark
- 5:57Speaker 1: as well? You know they have this incredibly value pharmaceutical company,
- 6:02Speaker 1: notice the one that makes the GP one drugs. We
- 6:05Speaker 1: should just take Denmark. What the hell? They can't defend it,
- 6:08Speaker 1: not against the United States. And while we're at it,
- 6:12Speaker 1: why don't we just take Scandinavia. I mean, Bernie Sanders
- 6:16Speaker 1: keeps saying he wants America to becomes Scandinavia instead of
- 6:19Speaker 1: it becomes Scandinavia. Could just take Scandinavia over because we're
- 6:23Speaker 1: stronger and they can't defend it against us. Stay don't
- 6:26Speaker 1: deserve it. Might makes right. Anyway, Trump increased the rhetoric
- 6:33Speaker 1: last week about all this, and the Europeans kind of said, Okay,
- 6:41Speaker 1: we're sending some troops over to reinforce our position in Greenland.
- 6:49Speaker 1: You know, it's a strategic risk. Russian's Trump says everywhere,
- 6:55Speaker 1: the Chinese everywhere. There's no sighting of any Chinese ships
- 6:59Speaker 1: in Greenland. I mean Russia, sure, but they no, No,
- 7:02Speaker 1: Chinese are not there anyway. So and this is kind
- 7:06Speaker 1: of funny, funny and sad, but really really funny. A
- 7:09Speaker 1: stand up comedian in Israel did a whole skit about this,
- 7:12Speaker 1: and I said, I have to recreate, kind of try
- 7:15Speaker 1: to recreate the skit for you. So, so Germany, Sweden, France, Norway,
- 7:21Speaker 1: and the Netherlands and Finland. So Germany, Sweden, France, no, Way,
- 7:26Speaker 1: the Netherlands, and Finland all confirmed that descending this is
- 7:32Speaker 1: last week military personnel to Greenland again in order to
- 7:38Speaker 1: boost its capabilities and protect it. We'll see how Trump
- 7:42Speaker 1: interpreted in a minute. This is wow. These people are serious.
- 7:46Speaker 1: This is big stuff. So Finland announced that it is
- 7:57Speaker 1: sending to military layers on offices. I mean these two,
- 8:03Speaker 1: I mean the Vikings. After well, no, I think I
- 8:06Speaker 1: think actually Finland is not technically Vikings, so I don't
- 8:13Speaker 1: know what they are, but you know, there are two
- 8:15Speaker 1: big fins, so you know, I think they can stand
- 8:18Speaker 1: down the US or the Russian fleet or the Russian
- 8:22Speaker 1: whatever or American's ad two. I mean this is major
- 8:28Speaker 1: European commitment. The Netherlands. The Netherlands in a in a
- 8:37Speaker 1: you know, in a in a massive show of solidarity
- 8:40Speaker 1: with with with Denmark and uh in order to boost
- 8:44Speaker 1: the ability. So what do they do here, you know,
- 8:47Speaker 1: the boost ability of Greenland to defend itself. It's sending one, one,
- 8:54Speaker 1: one whole soldier from the Netherlands is gonna stand up,
- 9:05Speaker 1: stand up to I don't know, the Americans, the Russians,
- 9:09Speaker 1: whoever lands up invading the place. I mean, imagine imagine
- 9:14Speaker 1: being the soldier of the Netherlands who gets chosen right, Hey, yohn, congratulations,
- 9:23Speaker 1: you just got a plumb assignment. We're sending you to Greenland.
- 9:30Speaker 1: I mean it's cold enough right now in the Netherlands.
- 9:33Speaker 1: He's going going to Greenland. It's like, how many troops
- 9:37Speaker 1: am I commanding? No? Just too, You're going all alone?
- 9:40Speaker 1: What am I supposed to do that help defend Greenland
- 9:43Speaker 1: against Germany? Germany, the mighty Germination is sending thirteen military
- 9:52Speaker 1: personnel to Greenland. I mean this is I don't know,
- 9:57Speaker 1: Europe is outdoing itself. I'm not sure how military in
- 10:00Speaker 1: the world will be able to stand up to the
- 10:02Speaker 1: forces that Europe is a reign in Greenland. Anyway, Trump,
- 10:10Speaker 1: give me one second, you know, Trump, They're not like this.
- 10:26Speaker 1: He felt like this was an insult because because hey,
- 10:31Speaker 1: uh this this, these troops might be used against the
- 10:36Speaker 1: United States of America, and uh, this is an insult.
- 10:42Speaker 1: And and you know, of course, the back and forth
- 10:44Speaker 1: all last week was around NATO and the United States.
- 10:49Speaker 1: You know, basically, uh so Trump decided over the weekend
- 10:54Speaker 1: to raise tariffs on European countries. There's a scent troops,
- 10:58Speaker 1: all those that poor one soldier from the Netherlands is
- 11:04Speaker 1: going to cost the Netherlands and so one, you know,
- 11:08Speaker 1: the one soldier is going to have tariffs of ten
- 11:10Speaker 1: percent escalating after June to much high twenty five percent
- 11:16Speaker 1: on the European countries to send troops to Greenland, because
- 11:20Speaker 1: how dare they They should just hand Greenland over to
- 11:23Speaker 1: the United States. So Trump was furious, and then Europe
- 11:26Speaker 1: went back and said, all right, if you're going to
- 11:30Speaker 1: put Travis on us were withdrawing from our previous trade agreement,
- 11:36Speaker 1: and we are going to we're threatening to initiate this.
- 11:43Speaker 1: You know, I guess the nuclear option of trade where
- 11:46Speaker 1: it would fall out of this provision of the EU,
- 11:49Speaker 1: they would basically make it very very hard for American
- 11:52Speaker 1: businesses to sell anything in Europe. So anyway, yesterday, I
- 11:57Speaker 1: mean last week and weekend, massive escalation in rhetoric around
- 12:05Speaker 1: around Greenland, tariffs, troops were just going to take it over.
- 12:09Speaker 1: We don't need any any of it. And speculation about
- 12:13Speaker 1: NATO falling apart, NATO should be broken up, in United
- 12:17Speaker 1: States leaving NATO. It's just unbelievable. I mean, it's it's
- 12:22Speaker 1: the anyway, the rhetoric escalated to levels of hysteria and
- 12:29Speaker 1: again threats, a lot of threats, and a trade war,
- 12:32Speaker 1: biggest trade war potentially between the United States and Europe
- 12:36Speaker 1: since Smooth Holly in the nineteen in the nineteen thirties.
- 12:42Speaker 1: So and to this mixture, right, mixture United States and
- 12:49Speaker 1: and to this the fact that Trump feels snubbed over
- 12:55Speaker 1: the Nobel Peace Prize. I mean, I think you saw
- 12:59Speaker 1: I didn't talk about this, but you saw last week
- 13:02Speaker 1: that Machado, the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize from Venezuela,
- 13:08Speaker 1: came to the White House and literally handed over to
- 13:11Speaker 1: Trump her Nobel Peace Prize and he proudly represented, and
- 13:17Speaker 1: he didn't do you know, no, no, no, no need
- 13:19Speaker 1: it's yours. It's got your name on it. You keep it. No,
- 13:22Speaker 1: he took it. He took it. I mean a lot
- 13:27Speaker 1: of good memes about Trump demanding all the gold medals
- 13:31Speaker 1: from all gold medal recipients and the Olympics, and he
- 13:36Speaker 1: got a photo Machado and him, and he's all proud
- 13:39Speaker 1: with his Nobel Piece prize. Anyway, Norway has kind of
- 13:43Speaker 1: a little pissed off about this because they awarded it
- 13:47Speaker 1: to her and it didn't order to him, and he's
- 13:50Speaker 1: taken it, and it just I mean, you can't make
- 13:53Speaker 1: this up. I mean, if Finemand has written this into
- 13:55Speaker 1: Atlas shrug, everybody would have said, no, this is ludicrous.
- 13:59Speaker 1: No human being of this character and this mentality and
- 14:05Speaker 1: this stupidity could ever be president of the United States.
- 14:08Speaker 1: It's just impossible. It would never happen. She can't. I mean,
- 14:12Speaker 1: her villains are just just ridiculous. No, this is I mean,
- 14:17Speaker 1: even Iman couldn't even imagine this anyway, So anyway, he's
- 14:24Speaker 1: pissed off of that. So over the weekend. Over the weekend,
- 14:30Speaker 1: he wrote the following letter to the President to the
- 14:36Speaker 1: Prime Minister sorry of Norway. And and notice, you know,
- 14:40Speaker 1: I'm linking Trump being upset about the Nobel Prize to
- 14:44Speaker 1: his attitude towards Greenland. And people would say, Joan, that's
- 14:49Speaker 1: just TDS Again, TDS, it's got nothing to I mean,
- 14:53Speaker 1: he's upset about the Nobel Prize, fine, but the Greenland
- 14:56Speaker 1: is strategic. The strategic reason has nothing to do with
- 14:59Speaker 1: the Nobel Prize. You know, you're just as TDS. You're
- 15:02Speaker 1: making that connection. So this is Trump in a president
- 15:07Speaker 1: sorry in a letter to the Prime Minister of Norway
- 15:11Speaker 1: that has been released and was actually distributed to some
- 15:13Speaker 1: other people. It was forwarded by the White House National
- 15:16Speaker 1: Security Council to ambassadors in Washington, different country, ambassadors, right,
- 15:21Speaker 1: de Johannes, considering your country decided not to give me
- 15:27Speaker 1: the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped eight wars plus.
- 15:31Speaker 1: I no longer feel an obligation to think purely a peace,
- 15:35Speaker 1: although it will always be predominant, but can now think
- 15:39Speaker 1: about what is good and proper for the United States
- 15:40Speaker 1: of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China.
- 15:46Speaker 1: And why do they have a right of ownership anyway.
- 15:49Speaker 1: There are no written documents. It's only a boat that
- 15:54Speaker 1: landed there three hundred years ago. But we had boats
- 15:57Speaker 1: landing there. Also. I have done more for NATO than
- 16:01Speaker 1: any person since it's founding, and now NATO should do
- 16:06Speaker 1: something for the United States. The world is not secure
- 16:09Speaker 1: unless we have complete and total capitalized control capitalized of Greenland.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Thank you. So President Trump is pissed off, I mean
- 16:25Speaker 1: royally pissed off, not a little bit, royally pissed off
- 16:28Speaker 1: that he did not get the Peace Prize. He is
- 16:30Speaker 1: blaming the Norwegian government and by extension, all of NATO
- 16:34Speaker 1: for not giving him a peace prize. And now it's
- 16:36Speaker 1: time for him, since he hasn't in the past to
- 16:39Speaker 1: pursue American self interest at the expense of peace towards
- 16:43Speaker 1: war because he knows he's not going to get the
- 16:44Speaker 1: Peace Prize anyway. So he's demanding he's demanding no way
- 16:52Speaker 1: support the claim and NATO support the claim of the
- 16:55Speaker 1: United States to Greenland. Now, you can't make this stuff up.
- 17:01Speaker 1: You can't make this stuff up. I mean, you know,
- 17:07Speaker 1: it's it's stupid, it's a historic hall, it's ridiculous by
- 17:13Speaker 1: Greenland's being Danish territory for centuries Danish citizens. It's residents
- 17:20Speaker 1: of Danish citizens. They vote in Danish elections. In nineteen sixteen,
- 17:24Speaker 1: the United States actually signed the document that recognized Greenland
- 17:29Speaker 1: as part of Denmark. So the United States has officially
- 17:34Speaker 1: recognized Greenland as part of Denmark. There's just nothing, nothing,
- 17:43Speaker 1: nothing there, and you know he is, there's no national
- 17:55Speaker 1: security reason to take Greenland. The United States as the
- 18:01Speaker 1: ability and the European countries of Denmark have reconfirmed the
- 18:06Speaker 1: United States ability to stage whatever weapons systems they want
- 18:10Speaker 1: in Denmark. They have the ability to put you know,
- 18:14Speaker 1: there were thirty thousand American troops in sorry, in Greenland
- 18:18Speaker 1: or in Greenland during the Cold War. They could return
- 18:22Speaker 1: to those levels. Denmark has no problem with that any
- 18:29Speaker 1: The US Navy can patrol the coast of Greenland to
- 18:34Speaker 1: prevent Russia Russian boats from reaching it. There's zero, there's zero.
- 18:41Speaker 1: I mean, if rare earth materials is the issue, the
- 18:45Speaker 1: problem with Greenland rare earth materials is not that they
- 18:50Speaker 1: don't want to try to go and get them, it's
- 18:53Speaker 1: that nobody will invest in getting them. That is, it's
- 18:56Speaker 1: super expensive. Why why is it expensive to mine? For
- 19:02Speaker 1: railroad materials in Greenland because it's cold, because it's Greenland,
- 19:14Speaker 1: because it's covered with ice, because only fifty five people,
- 19:19Speaker 1: fifty five thousand people live in this place, which is
- 19:22Speaker 1: the size of a quarta of continental United States. It
- 19:27Speaker 1: is massive. It's twenty five percent larger than Alaska. It's huge.
- 19:35Speaker 1: But nobody lives there because it's well. I won't say
- 19:39Speaker 1: it's cold, because you know, Michigan is cold and all
- 19:42Speaker 1: you Michiganians Michigan is live in Michigan. But no, but
- 19:46Speaker 1: it's it's cold even for Michiganians or whatever, right it.
- 19:52Speaker 1: I mean, it's really cold, and it's rocky, and it's
- 19:58Speaker 1: difficult in it to get from and it doesn't have
- 20:01Speaker 1: the infrastructure in the sense of the roads, railroad or
- 20:05Speaker 1: whatever infrastructure you need to get the mining material to
- 20:09Speaker 1: the ports. Somebody would have to invest a lot of
- 20:12Speaker 1: money to do all that. And the fact is that
- 20:16Speaker 1: the that the private sector is not edgeded. It's just
- 20:20Speaker 1: too expensive. There are other sources of very oath materials
- 20:25Speaker 1: that are easier to get to it. But if the
- 20:28Speaker 1: United States companies want to invest in it, or if
- 20:31Speaker 1: the US companies want to invest in mining, the resources
- 20:36Speaker 1: are Arctic. Whatever that involves. Denmark is not going to
- 20:40Speaker 1: stop them. Denmark is gonna sign agreements with them and
- 20:42Speaker 1: let them do it. So it's all bogus now not
- 20:49Speaker 1: according to Secretary Bessin. Now, remember Secretary bestn't. This is
- 20:53Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary's supposed to be the adult in the room.
- 20:57Speaker 1: He's supposed to be the one person in the Trumpet
- 20:59Speaker 1: administration that actually still has a mind. They say, now,
- 21:07Speaker 1: I don't think he ever had. I don't think there's
- 21:10Speaker 1: any reason to believe he has. Given his pronouncements on
- 21:14Speaker 1: tariffs and everything else and budgets and things. The guy's
- 21:17Speaker 1: completely lost it. The Fed interestrates completely lost it. It's
- 21:22Speaker 1: become a Trump zombie. This is the Secretary Besson quote.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Greenland is essential to the US national security. President Trump
- 21:31Speaker 1: is being strategic. He's looking beyond this year, he's looking
- 21:35Speaker 1: beyond next year to what could happen for battle in
- 21:38Speaker 1: the Arctic. We are not going to outsource our national security.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Nobody's asking you to. And by the way, NATO is
- 21:46Speaker 1: not outsourcing. You dominate NATO, We dominate NATO. That's not
- 21:51Speaker 1: outsourcing our national security. I mean, what can't you justify
- 22:00Speaker 1: kah By by these kind of arguments, any any kind
- 22:04Speaker 1: of military action you want. Uh hmm. So it's a
- 22:18Speaker 1: national emergency taking Greenland by force. There's no justice in
- 22:25Speaker 1: it is. You know, it's illegal under US law. It
- 22:30Speaker 1: should go to Congress. I mean, I don't think it
- 22:34Speaker 1: would even get a majority of Republicans in the Senate.
- 22:37Speaker 1: I doubt it would even get a republic majority of
- 22:39Speaker 1: Republicans in the House. It's unbelievably unpopular. It's a stupid idea.
- 22:45Speaker 1: It's uh, it won't it wouldn't get it wouldn't get
- 22:53Speaker 1: congressional approval, and it's clearly illegal without congressional approval. There's
- 22:59Speaker 1: just no justification for it. It would be a major
- 23:02Speaker 1: decoration of war on Denmark and really on NATO. I
- 23:06Speaker 1: mean Article five of the NATO Charta would be triggered
- 23:11Speaker 1: and Canada would be at war with US. And Canada
- 23:14Speaker 1: said that they would supposedly view it as an active
- 23:18Speaker 1: war against them if Greenland was invaded. Is that the priorty?
- 23:24Speaker 1: You would think that if we actually had a strategic
- 23:28Speaker 1: view about Russia and China and wanted to combat them,
- 23:33Speaker 1: we would be showing up our allies. We would be
- 23:36Speaker 1: investing in our alliances. We would be building those up
- 23:40Speaker 1: to present a United Fund, which I think could not
- 23:45Speaker 1: be defeated Russia on the European side and without Asian
- 23:51Speaker 1: allies visa of Eachina. But we're not doing either one
- 23:54Speaker 1: of those things. We're just pissing everybody off and establishing
- 23:59Speaker 1: it unequivocally that we are not to be relied on,
- 24:02Speaker 1: that we cannot be trusted, that we function from whim
- 24:08Speaker 1: and nothing else. So we're doing exactly the opposite of
- 24:17Speaker 1: what you'd expect if you had a you know, interestingly enough,
- 24:21Speaker 1: if you think about strategic views. The Trumpet administration put
- 24:25Speaker 1: up a national security document which we talked about on
- 24:28Speaker 1: the show a few weeks ago, which was a Russia
- 24:32Speaker 1: and China and you know, the new Monroe Doctrine and
- 24:36Speaker 1: all of that. But guess what wasn't mentioned in that
- 24:39Speaker 1: this is the strategy to take on Russia and China
- 24:45Speaker 1: in a multi polar war and world and how to
- 24:48Speaker 1: dominate our hemisphere was the one country not mentioned in
- 24:53Speaker 1: the entire frigging document. One not mentioned as a is Greenland.
- 25:02Speaker 1: You would think that if Greenland is so important for
- 25:05Speaker 1: American national security, then in the national security strategy document
- 25:09Speaker 1: that the Trump administration put together for scratch, they would
- 25:14Speaker 1: mention the Greenland is importance. They don't even mention it. Now,
- 25:26Speaker 1: a conflict with Europe is going to be problematic for
- 25:30Speaker 1: everybody involved, but primarily for the Europeans. Europeans in trouble.
- 25:35Speaker 1: The reality is that Europe it depends on the United States.
- 25:40Speaker 1: For example, for natural gas, used to depend on Russia,
- 25:43Speaker 1: now depends on the US. Now there's a sense in
- 25:48Speaker 1: which this is just perfect right, because the reality is
- 25:57Speaker 1: the Europeans have enough natural gas in mainland Europe to
- 26:02Speaker 1: deal with to power their energy needs. They don't need
- 26:08Speaker 1: to import it from the US or anywhere else. It's
- 26:13Speaker 1: right there. And you're UK has vast resources of natural gas,
- 26:20Speaker 1: so does Poland in Germany. In order to get to it,
- 26:25Speaker 1: you would have to do a guess what the Europeans
- 26:28Speaker 1: consider the unthinkable, the unthinkable, what is the unthinkable? You
- 26:36Speaker 1: would have to frack that anti life, anti humanity, anti whatever,
- 26:44Speaker 1: fracking you'd have to frack. But the reality is that
- 26:48Speaker 1: fracking would unleash a massive quantity of natural gas in Europe,
- 26:56Speaker 1: in Europe, which would not I mean, yeah, it would
- 27:07Speaker 1: take some resources, but Europeans have the money, the infrastructures
- 27:11Speaker 1: there in terms of roads and everything. Pipelines exist in Europe.
- 27:15Speaker 1: It's not that hard now. It couldn't be done from
- 27:18Speaker 1: today's tomorrow. It would take years. But they could have
- 27:21Speaker 1: started this twenty years ago. They could have started it
- 27:25Speaker 1: ten years ago. They could have started it the day
- 27:28Speaker 1: the Ukraine War started. They could have started it many
- 27:32Speaker 1: times over and they haven't. So the fact that they
- 27:41Speaker 1: depends on US oil natural gas. They get forty five
- 27:44Speaker 1: point three percent of the natural gas from l and
- 27:47Speaker 1: G from the United States. You know, they get some
- 27:51Speaker 1: from Russia, still still from Russia, and then they get
- 27:55Speaker 1: some from the Middle East and no Way has no
- 27:59Speaker 1: way for one country. It still provides natural gas and
- 28:03Speaker 1: other things. Petroleum oil they get sixteen point one percent
- 28:06Speaker 1: from the United States, and then they get most of
- 28:10Speaker 1: the rest in the Middle East. And again Norway provides
- 28:13Speaker 1: a big chunk north Sea drilling in Norway. I mean
- 28:17Speaker 1: the UK could have it, could track, there's more oil
- 28:21Speaker 1: in the North Sea. There are lots of things that
- 28:23Speaker 1: are made possible. I mean, look, the reality is that
- 28:31Speaker 1: if Trump tries to take Greenland by force, NATO is finished.
- 28:38Speaker 1: I don't think Trump cares, but NATO is finished. I
- 28:42Speaker 1: don't know how he justifies it constitutionally, but we have
- 28:46Speaker 1: already discussed the fact that our constitution is not working
- 28:48Speaker 1: right now because Congress is not willing to do its job. Now,
- 28:54Speaker 1: if he invaded Greenland, would he be impeached? Supposedly this
- 28:59Speaker 1: is supposedly Republicans in Congress are telling Trump that if
- 29:03Speaker 1: he invades Greenland, his presidency is over. Do you believe that?
- 29:09Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if to believe that,
- 29:10Speaker 1: but that's what I'm hearing now. You know, taking Greenland
- 29:16Speaker 1: is on you. Evy Truman made it off in nineteen
- 29:19Speaker 1: forty eight to buy Denmark, and buying makes a lot
- 29:23Speaker 1: of sense, although we'll get to buying in a minute.
- 29:27Speaker 1: But no president in history the United States has threatened
- 29:30Speaker 1: Denmark with taking it by force. And who is the
- 29:37Speaker 1: one party in the world out there, who is the
- 29:43Speaker 1: one party that will rejoice at the collapse of NATO?
- 29:51Speaker 1: Who is the one party, you know, just rubbing their
- 29:55Speaker 1: hands just with the prospects of the United States taking
- 29:58Speaker 1: over Greenland? Who thinks this is amazing and uh and fantastic? Right?
- 30:06Speaker 1: The Kremlin putin his Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peshkov. International experts
- 30:13Speaker 1: believe that by resolving Greenland's incorporation, Trump will suddenly go
- 30:18Speaker 1: down in history, not only in US history, but world history.
- 30:23Speaker 1: They're egging him on that, they're poking him. Good do it,
- 30:27Speaker 1: good do it, You'll go down in world history. So yeah,
- 30:34Speaker 1: they want it. They want NATO to do, whether it
- 30:37Speaker 1: shadows or not. They want the US and Europe to
- 30:41Speaker 1: be at loggerheads. They want uh, the US and and
- 30:45Speaker 1: and Europe UH to be fighting Russia, saying we're not
- 30:52Speaker 1: threatening Greenland, but we're happy to watch Trump destroy NATO
- 30:56Speaker 1: trying to protect it from US Russias Vun minister says it.
- 31:05Speaker 1: Were saying last week that it's unacceptable for the worst
- 31:08Speaker 1: to claim Russia and China threaten Greenland while Trump literally
- 31:12Speaker 1: literally threatens to take it. They just having a blast
- 31:20Speaker 1: over this. They you know, they can't, they can't hold
- 31:22Speaker 1: themselves Kirol. The betrayal of Russia rights rights, collapse of
- 31:32Speaker 1: the Transatlantic Union, finally something actually worth discussing. A DeVos
- 31:37Speaker 1: devas are starting I think tomorrow. They're thrilled. They cannot
- 31:43Speaker 1: imagine how this has been given to them on a
- 31:47Speaker 1: silver platter, gold platter, while silver is pretty high these
- 31:50Speaker 1: days too, silver and gold platter, two platters. You know,
- 31:55Speaker 1: basically NATO shattered. They crush Ukraine. I mean even Nigel
- 32:01Speaker 1: Farage is mad at Trump. Even Nigel Farage, I mean,
- 32:06Speaker 1: it's that bad for it's saying. I will be having
- 32:09Speaker 1: some words with the American administration. What Trump has said
- 32:12Speaker 1: is wrong. It's very hoodful to us. We have stood
- 32:16Speaker 1: by America for years. This is not how friends treat
- 32:19Speaker 1: each other. We will not be bullied into silence on
- 32:22Speaker 1: Greenland for whoa. Anyway, this is where we are. It is,
- 32:36Speaker 1: It is bizarre, It is weird, it is crazy. By
- 32:40Speaker 1: the way, Davos is starting, Trump is on the way
- 32:42Speaker 1: to Davas. Trump, a huge American entourage is on the
- 32:47Speaker 1: way to Davas. Davis is the World Economic Forum. It's
- 32:50Speaker 1: that place where you know Klaus Close Close has been
- 32:55Speaker 1: fired from Davos for sexual harassment, where the elites of
- 33:00Speaker 1: world conspire to take it over. Well, this year it's
- 33:04Speaker 1: going to be dominated by Trump administration people. I wonder
- 33:08Speaker 1: if the anti elites and mega are a little upset
- 33:11Speaker 1: that Trump is going to Davas. You think they would say,
- 33:14Speaker 1: don't go to Davas. Doavass where the devil, Where the
- 33:16Speaker 1: devil lives. That's not good anyway, All these leaders are
- 33:20Speaker 1: going to be in Davas. It's going to be interesting.
- 33:22Speaker 1: The interaction between them will be kind of cool. Now, supposedly,
- 33:26Speaker 1: here's another report that I haven't been able to verify
- 33:29Speaker 1: from anywhere else, but this is a report that says
- 33:32Speaker 1: it's going to sky News. It says that on Sunday,
- 33:36Speaker 1: Trump actually had a phone call with Keith kia Kier,
- 33:40Speaker 1: not Keith kir Starmer about Greenland, in which Trump admitted
- 33:46Speaker 1: that he might have had inaccurate information about the motives
- 33:50Speaker 1: for deploying a European military contingent to Greenland. The US
- 33:54Speaker 1: president stated position could become the basis for de escalation,
- 34:00Speaker 1: de escalating and attention surrounding Greenland. One of the main
- 34:04Speaker 1: reasons for Trump's threats of tariffs related to Greenland was
- 34:07Speaker 1: the deployment of a small number, as I said, one
- 34:10Speaker 1: guy from the Netherlands, a military personnel on the island.
- 34:13Speaker 1: At the end of last week, Kissed Arma tried to
- 34:16Speaker 1: convince Trump that these military movements serve to strengthen US
- 34:19Speaker 1: security interests and are not actions directed against America, so that,
- 34:25Speaker 1: according to Sky News, who knows I mean again, Trump
- 34:33Speaker 1: is driven by whoever whispered in his ear last last.
- 34:40Speaker 1: On the other hand, the Germans are getting tougher right.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Germans are saying this is a prime minist of Germany.
- 34:47Speaker 1: The American government knows that we can also take reciprocal
- 34:50Speaker 1: steps on outside. I do not want that, but if necessary,
- 34:54Speaker 1: we will certainly defend our European interest and also our
- 34:57Speaker 1: German national interests. The economy of the United States is
- 34:59Speaker 1: not working as well as the American government expected a
- 35:02Speaker 1: year ago in my assessment. This is somewhat related to
- 35:06Speaker 1: the tariff policy as well. We know that Trump often
- 35:09Speaker 1: threatens with tariffs, sometimes imposes them, but just as often
- 35:12Speaker 1: engages in negotiations, which usually forces him to back down
- 35:16Speaker 1: from these decisions. Trump point like that the United States
- 35:20Speaker 1: once had more than thirty thousand troops stationed in Greenland,
- 35:23Speaker 1: told you today there are fewer than two hundred days.
- 35:27Speaker 1: So it is clear that the threat assessment from the
- 35:30Speaker 1: United States itself is not as dramatic as it is
- 35:33Speaker 1: currently portrayed, although the security situation may still worsen. So
- 35:40Speaker 1: they have it from the Prime Minister of Germany. All right,
- 35:46Speaker 1: so let's go from the I don't know if we're
- 35:52Speaker 1: crazy to the insane. Is there any different from the
- 35:55Speaker 1: vicious to the nutty to the I don't know? Anyway,
- 35:58Speaker 1: let's talk about this border piece board of peace. So
- 36:02Speaker 1: if you members part of the Gaza cease fire deal,
- 36:05Speaker 1: there was supposed to be three stages to the Gaza
- 36:09Speaker 1: ultimately peace program, and stage two included a establishment of
- 36:14Speaker 1: some kind of technocratic government that would replace Hamas in
- 36:20Speaker 1: actually governing the territory the territory of Gaza. In addition
- 36:26Speaker 1: to that, there was supposed to be something called the
- 36:28Speaker 1: Gaza Executive Board. And then on top of that there
- 36:31Speaker 1: would be a Founding Executive Board or the Executive Board.
- 36:35Speaker 1: But on top of all of it would be a
- 36:38Speaker 1: board a piece, a board a piece. This would be
- 36:42Speaker 1: supposedly an international organization shared by Trump, he said at
- 36:47Speaker 1: the time, and would run Gaza, right, run Gaza, and
- 36:53Speaker 1: then it would delegate to the executive Founding Executive Board,
- 36:58Speaker 1: you know, a smaller appointed group under the boarder piece
- 37:03Speaker 1: that would handle operations and implementations. Below that would be
- 37:06Speaker 1: the Gauze Executive Board, which would run things on the ground,
- 37:09Speaker 1: and below that would be a government of technocrats, which
- 37:13Speaker 1: has already been a name fifteen Technocrats at the bottom. Now,
- 37:23Speaker 1: all of this is of course contingent. The goal of
- 37:27Speaker 1: this boarder piece is first of all to dismantle and
- 37:30Speaker 1: to disarm Hamas and then to start the process of
- 37:35Speaker 1: rebuilding Gaza. That is its purpose. Anyway, it turns out
- 37:44Speaker 1: as on Friday, Trump finally sent out invitations to people
- 37:49Speaker 1: to join at the Board of Peace, and it turned
- 37:53Speaker 1: out that it has very little to do with Gaza.
- 37:57Speaker 1: It is supposed to be some a board of leaders
- 38:05Speaker 1: that basically devils in whatever crises exist out there in
- 38:11Speaker 1: the world. This boarder piece has a chairman for life.
- 38:18Speaker 1: His name is of course, Donald Trump, who stays chairman
- 38:22Speaker 1: of the boarder Piece even after leaving office as President
- 38:25Speaker 1: of the United States and would have the right to
- 38:31Speaker 1: name his successor. Donald Trump as part of this board
- 38:36Speaker 1: of Piece would also have complete veto power on all decisions.
- 38:43Speaker 1: Now I invited to join the boarder piece. What countries
- 38:48Speaker 1: like Canada, France, Britain and Saudi Arabia, you know, supposedly
- 38:54Speaker 1: allies of the United States, although I don't know if
- 38:56Speaker 1: how how long. And there was some discussion about this
- 39:03Speaker 1: really replace as the Security Council of the United States,
- 39:05Speaker 1: just this time with Trump running everything and running it
- 39:09Speaker 1: for life and running it was veto power. And maybe
- 39:16Speaker 1: if you only include the good countries, this is a good,
- 39:18Speaker 1: good improvement. But then it turned out that Trump also
- 39:22Speaker 1: said sent invitations to be on the Board of Peace.
- 39:28Speaker 1: Two who do you think, well, he sent it to
- 39:33Speaker 1: Putin and to the dictator of Belarus. So Putin's going
- 39:46Speaker 1: to be on a boat to piece the guy who
- 39:47Speaker 1: started the one. You came now to be a permanent
- 39:53Speaker 1: member on the board a piece, to be on the
- 39:56Speaker 1: board to piece forever. I guess you have to pony
- 39:59Speaker 1: up one billion dollars and then you become a permanent
- 40:06Speaker 1: member on the board a piece, and you get it
- 40:10Speaker 1: be involved in all kinds of global conflicts which will
- 40:13Speaker 1: be determined by Donald Trump in addition to these countries.
- 40:27Speaker 1: To Ki and Katarara, UH invited is always not. It's
- 40:37Speaker 1: always not, even though it involves Gaza. UH. And the
- 40:42Speaker 1: idea is this is a new international body that would
- 40:47Speaker 1: supervise the rebuilding of Gaza, but also engage in any
- 40:52Speaker 1: other stuff. Again, Trump there for life, uh to. Only
- 40:59Speaker 1: two people so far have accepted. Jordan was invited, as
- 41:04Speaker 1: I said Britain. The two people that have accepted Ami
- 41:08Speaker 1: Lay from Argentina and Victor Auburn from Hungary. I hate
- 41:14Speaker 1: to see the company that Milay keeps, but what can
- 41:17Speaker 1: you do now. The founding executive board, which is not
- 41:27Speaker 1: being said, will include Marco Rubio, Jared Kushner, Steve Whitkoff.
- 41:34Speaker 1: Steve Whitkoff who is not blamed for the fact that
- 41:40Speaker 1: Trump did not act against Ivan, Tony Blair, Mark Rowan,
- 41:45Speaker 1: who I know the private equity executive, Ijai Banja from
- 41:49Speaker 1: the World Bank, the World Bank President, and Robert Gabriel,
- 41:53Speaker 1: the host National Security Advisor. And then the Gaza Executive
- 41:56Speaker 1: Board responsible for Gaza and working with directly with the
- 42:02Speaker 1: Technocratic National Committee the kind of government there and it's
- 42:06Speaker 1: going to handle day to day administration. The Gaza Executive
- 42:11Speaker 1: Board will include Blair, Kushna, and Witkov but also include
- 42:16Speaker 1: representatives from Turki Kata, Egypt, a Yue and suppose the
- 42:23Speaker 1: I think one Israeli businessman now Israel is flipping out
- 42:30Speaker 1: over this and basically saying we will absolutely not accept
- 42:35Speaker 1: a role for Turki and Kata in this governing board
- 42:41Speaker 1: of Gaza. They are enemies and we will not give
- 42:45Speaker 1: them a position. They are they are the forefront of
- 42:49Speaker 1: the Muslim brotherhood, and we will now give them a
- 42:52Speaker 1: position on this. Yui is fine, Tuki Kata are not
- 42:56Speaker 1: fine than not acceptable. So this has become a contentious
- 43:01Speaker 1: issue between Israel and the United States. Uh So. According
- 43:14Speaker 1: to the charter of the organization, the Board of Pieces
- 43:16Speaker 1: an international organization. It seeks to promote stability, restore dependable
- 43:20Speaker 1: and lawful governance, and secure and during peace in areas
- 43:24Speaker 1: affected or threatened by conflict. The charter does not mention Gaza.
- 43:28Speaker 1: Dal Piece requires pragmatic judgment, common sense solutions, and the
- 43:32Speaker 1: courage to depart from approaches and institutions that have often failed.
- 43:38Speaker 1: Countries that join the Board will serve a limited three
- 43:41Speaker 1: year term unless they contribute over one billion dollars within
- 43:45Speaker 1: the first year of its operation. The money, by the way,
- 43:49Speaker 1: to be managed and controlled by guess who. Donald Trump,
- 44:00Speaker 1: which has been invited, has said the Kingdom has received
- 44:03Speaker 1: the invitation to join. The voterpiece in the US administration
- 44:07Speaker 1: is being reviewed. As per our internal processes. We are
- 44:11Speaker 1: supportive of President Trump's efforts to resolve the conflict and
- 44:14Speaker 1: bring lasting peace to Gauza and the region. It's the
- 44:28Speaker 1: voting on this voorder piece. All decisions would be made
- 44:32Speaker 1: by a majority of members states present and voting, subject
- 44:37Speaker 1: to the approval of the Chairman, who may also cast
- 44:39Speaker 1: a vote in his capacity as chairman in their vent
- 44:42Speaker 1: or attie, but he can also veto because he has
- 44:45Speaker 1: to approve the decisions. It also provides the chairman with
- 44:50Speaker 1: exclusive exclusive authority to create, modify, or dissolve subsidiary entities
- 44:55Speaker 1: as necessary or appropriate to fulfill the boat's peacemanship, such
- 44:59Speaker 1: as the executive committees that we talked about. So basically
- 45:04Speaker 1: gives Trump all the power in the world. But the
- 45:06Speaker 1: whole idea is stupid anyway. The border piece, the border piece,
- 45:16Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump running the world in the
- 45:20Speaker 1: name of piece. Nonetheless, All right, Uh, let's see what
- 45:36Speaker 1: did I wanna? Yeah, Lukashenko has been invited. He's another
- 45:41Speaker 1: another one of those advocate, big advocate for peace. Uh.
- 45:47Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to see what happens with Israel,
- 45:50Speaker 1: right Uh, and to what extent Israel is willing to
- 45:55Speaker 1: play along with this stuff. I mean, this is this
- 45:58Speaker 1: Phase two of the Gazad is really a joke, according
- 46:04Speaker 1: to According to some reports, naw has said, I want
- 46:08Speaker 1: to make it clear there will be no Turkish or
- 46:11Speaker 1: Katari soldiers in Gaza. We're currently in a dispute with
- 46:15Speaker 1: the United States over the makeup of the Advisory Council
- 46:18Speaker 1: or executive board for Gaza. I mean, imagine if Biden
- 46:28Speaker 1: had suggested the Turkey and Katal have authority over Gaza.
- 46:40Speaker 1: I mean, you can't make this stuff up. You just
- 46:44Speaker 1: cannot make this stuff up, all right. Next in the
- 46:56Speaker 1: why should I debate you yourself? I'm not going to
- 46:58Speaker 1: debate you. I mean, sorry, but I don't debate nobody's
- 47:03Speaker 1: I have to have a self interest in the debate.
- 47:06Speaker 1: And the self interest is that you can bring people
- 47:11Speaker 1: that people show up to see you. That that's the
- 47:16Speaker 1: value to me is larger exposure. I can have fun
- 47:22Speaker 1: in lots of different ways. A self is suggesting I
- 47:27Speaker 1: debate him because he says it would be fun. I
- 47:32Speaker 1: can think of many, many more things that would be
- 47:34Speaker 1: fun than that. All right, the right would go ballistic
- 47:41Speaker 1: if Biden had proposed any of this stuff, and if
- 47:43Speaker 1: he did any of this stuff. I mean, at this point,
- 47:45Speaker 1: I think Peter Schiff had a right. Peter Schiff posted
- 47:48Speaker 1: on Twitter he said, the one thing that Trump has
- 47:56Speaker 1: achieved in his first year as president is uh, oh god,
- 48:04Speaker 1: I wish I had the tweet basically is to show
- 48:07Speaker 1: that it was possible to be worse than Biden. Yep,
- 48:14Speaker 1: and yes, I think it would be worse than Biden.
- 48:22Speaker 1: Does Juan read Twitter chat? I mean depends I read Twitter.
- 48:26Speaker 1: I don't know what twitter chat is. All right, let's see,
- 48:32Speaker 1: so staying in the Middle East today with Middle East
- 48:35Speaker 1: heavy stay in the Middle East. Okay, we've talked about Syria,
- 48:41Speaker 1: but let me give you some background on Syria. Syria
- 48:48Speaker 1: is a significant strategic country in the Middle East. It
- 48:55Speaker 1: sits between Turkey and Israel, Turkey and Jordan, Turkey and Lebanon,
- 49:01Speaker 1: and and it sits between Lebanon, Israel and Iraq and
- 49:04Speaker 1: Iraq on the other side. It is why Iran wanted
- 49:09Speaker 1: to be in Syria, why the Russians had a significant
- 49:13Speaker 1: base in Syria. And of course, uh, you know, the
- 49:18Speaker 1: the the Asad regime that ruled Syria for a very
- 49:21Speaker 1: long time was overthrown by by Ahmadel Shallah, the former
- 49:29Speaker 1: ISIS commander who overran the Acid regime, took Damascus, established
- 49:35Speaker 1: herself as president quad i e. Dictator of of Syria,
- 49:44Speaker 1: and announced to the world that while he was an Islamist,
- 49:50Speaker 1: an Islamist, he was no longer filiar with ISIS and
- 49:54Speaker 1: now was committed to peace and wanted a peaceful Syria,
- 49:59Speaker 1: Syria integrate into the Middle East and peaceful. And immediately
- 50:02Speaker 1: the Saudis came and tugged him and showered him with
- 50:06Speaker 1: compliments and money, and the Europeans came with I think
- 50:10Speaker 1: five eight billion dollars, as if Europe has extra money
- 50:13Speaker 1: to spend on Syria. I guess the main reason the
- 50:17Speaker 1: Europeans wanted to get money to Syria was with the
- 50:19Speaker 1: hope that Syria would become a normal country and all
- 50:22Speaker 1: the Syrians and europe would go back to Syria. And
- 50:25Speaker 1: then Donald Trump came and said, WHOA, this guy's cool.
- 50:28Speaker 1: I like this guy, and he brought him to the
- 50:30Speaker 1: White House and he celebrated him and they had a
- 50:33Speaker 1: good conversation, and the United States is financially assisting. Now.
- 50:39Speaker 1: Syria is still the base for ISIS, mostly in its
- 50:45Speaker 1: eastern part the part closer to uk Isis was defeated
- 50:51Speaker 1: through a combination of efforts the Russians bombing them with
- 50:56Speaker 1: no regard to to anything really getting tough with them
- 51:01Speaker 1: in his first term, and the Kurdish the Kurdish SDF,
- 51:07Speaker 1: the Syrian Democratic Forces which are mainly Kurdish forces basically
- 51:13Speaker 1: fighting ISIS and ultimately defeating them and capturing thousands of
- 51:19Speaker 1: them and holding them in prison camps which the Syrian
- 51:22Speaker 1: Democratic Forces managed and held. The Syrian Democratic Forces as
- 51:28Speaker 1: a Kodesh force was wanted, was pushing the new government
- 51:32Speaker 1: in Theamascus for to create a federation, a federal type
- 51:37Speaker 1: of government where the Kurds would be given some autonomy
- 51:41Speaker 1: in the northeast of the country. Another and the Syrian
- 51:46Speaker 1: president made it clear that he was not interested in
- 51:48Speaker 1: the federation. There would be one Syria, and that he
- 51:52Speaker 1: intended to occupy all of the all of the land
- 51:56Speaker 1: that is was Syria, and he intended to too great
- 52:00Speaker 1: the soldiers in the Syrian from the Syrian Democratic Forces
- 52:04Speaker 1: into the Syrian Army, you know, the ones that were
- 52:07Speaker 1: still alive after they massacred the ones he didn't like,
- 52:11Speaker 1: rape their women, stole their kids, the rest could could
- 52:15Speaker 1: could fight generally in in in the Syrian army. Anyway,
- 52:22Speaker 1: There's been back and forth and there's been fighting going
- 52:26Speaker 1: on in the north and the northeast of Syria between
- 52:28Speaker 1: the Kurds and the Syrian the regular Syria Syrian army
- 52:32Speaker 1: and uh you know, Syrian army has been gaining gaining
- 52:36Speaker 1: ground on the Kurds, in particular, given that they get
- 52:40Speaker 1: help from the Toks. Turki has allowed Islamists to cross
- 52:48Speaker 1: the border from Turkey into northern Syria and to fight
- 52:52Speaker 1: on the side of the Syrian army in opposition to
- 52:55Speaker 1: the Kurdish. The Kods that established kind of a a
- 52:58Speaker 1: kind of a autonomous region with democracy and and and
- 53:03Speaker 1: women you know who writes women and no hijab and
- 53:06Speaker 1: know this. And of course the Syrian government is an
- 53:08Speaker 1: Islamist government and the Turkish government is a government that
- 53:12Speaker 1: is super sens super supportive of Islamism. The courtis stood
- 53:18Speaker 1: in their way. Anyway, fighting continued, the Syrian Army made
- 53:22Speaker 1: significant ground recently. And then the United States and it's
- 53:25Speaker 1: emissary this guy Barak who is who is Lebanese and
- 53:30Speaker 1: fund the Middle East anyway, to negotiate a deal and
- 53:36Speaker 1: this weekend we got a deal. We got a ce fire,
- 53:40Speaker 1: a peace deal between the Syrian military and the Syrian
- 53:47Speaker 1: Democratic Forces. Basically, this deal is a deal of surrender
- 53:54Speaker 1: by the Syrian Democratic Forces, completely supported, encouraged, promoted by Trump.
- 54:07Speaker 1: In other words, Trump has completely turned his back on
- 54:10Speaker 1: the one force in the Middle East that has been
- 54:14Speaker 1: fighting ISIS on outside helping us. It involves an immediacy
- 54:20Speaker 1: fire on all funds and the withdrawal of all military
- 54:27Speaker 1: formations affiliated with the Syrian Democratic Forces to areas east
- 54:32Speaker 1: of the Euphrates close to the Iraqi border. Second handing
- 54:39Speaker 1: over the governance of the areas in northern Syria immediately
- 54:45Speaker 1: to Syrian government. Now, this by the way, includes many
- 54:49Speaker 1: of the prisons in which ISIS ISIS commanders, ISIS fighters
- 54:53Speaker 1: were being held, thousands of them. We'll talk about what
- 54:59Speaker 1: happened once they were hand it over in a minute,
- 55:02Speaker 1: you know, Integrating all the civil institutions Assyrian government, taking
- 55:05Speaker 1: over all the border crossings and oil and gas fields
- 55:09Speaker 1: in the region. This is the one region Assyria that
- 55:11Speaker 1: has some oil and gas. Integrating all military and security
- 55:15Speaker 1: elements of the SDF into the structure of the Syrian
- 55:18Speaker 1: military not as independent units but as individuals, as individuals,
- 55:31Speaker 1: and basically a complete surrender of the SDF and its
- 55:35Speaker 1: retreat from all its strongholds and all its cities and
- 55:39Speaker 1: all its political places. In other words, a complete compulation.
- 55:49Speaker 1: This is exactly what Turkey wants, because Turkey has of
- 55:52Speaker 1: course been in conflict with the with the Coods for
- 55:57Speaker 1: a very long time. And yep, and Toky has achieved
- 56:05Speaker 1: what it wanted was the capitulation of the goods and
- 56:09Speaker 1: Syrian now controls Syrian forces. Over the weekend, fighting continued
- 56:17Speaker 1: after this this idea was and you know, Syrian forces
- 56:23Speaker 1: entered into the towns and in places Kurdish women, who
- 56:29Speaker 1: are about forty percent of the entire fighting force of
- 56:32Speaker 1: the Kurdish of the Kurdish forces, they erected a big
- 56:39Speaker 1: sculpture of a woman fighter as a symbol of women's
- 56:44Speaker 1: freedom in Raka, a city in the north. That statue
- 56:51Speaker 1: was immediately dragged down and in destroyed, right destroyed, God forbid,
- 56:57Speaker 1: God forbid. The women. Now, I don't know what they're
- 57:01Speaker 1: gonna do, but you know many of them will become,
- 57:04Speaker 1: it would be my guess, sex slaves to the new
- 57:09Speaker 1: you know, new Syrian army and and to the ISIS elements.
- 57:20Speaker 1: One of the first things the Syrian army did in
- 57:23Speaker 1: northern Syria was released all the ISIS. Remember, the president
- 57:27Speaker 1: of Syria was a former ISIS fighter, So thousands of
- 57:33Speaker 1: ISIS fighters who, if you remember in the mid twenty teens,
- 57:38Speaker 1: were going to Europe and committing terrorist attacks. Thousands of
- 57:42Speaker 1: these ISIS fighters have now been released from their prisons.
- 57:49Speaker 1: This all at the urging of the United States. The
- 57:56Speaker 1: Trump basically told them that he was pivoting away from them, yeah,
- 58:00Speaker 1: towards the Syrian arabomby UH. They this ambassador Baraque was
- 58:07Speaker 1: urged the Codes to make deep compromises and the Syrian
- 58:13Speaker 1: government got everything it wanted with the help of the
- 58:17Speaker 1: United States and the Europeans. Turkey is the winner here.
- 58:25Speaker 1: Turkey now basically UH has a huge influence on Syria,
- 58:34Speaker 1: has troops inside Syria on the Syrian side of the
- 58:37Speaker 1: border with Turkey, and now is your faces on its
- 58:42Speaker 1: northeastern border. An Islamist regime, UH, you know, are manned
- 58:50Speaker 1: by ISIS fanatics who make I think Hamas see moderate right,
- 58:57Speaker 1: I mean, these are these are these are people who
- 59:01Speaker 1: you know, committed September seventh, like atrocities on a daily
- 59:04Speaker 1: basis in Ywalk and Syria when they had control over
- 59:07Speaker 1: their territories. Now, Israel has created a buffer zone in
- 59:12Speaker 1: its northeastern period northeastern region, which includes the Jews minority.
- 59:17Speaker 1: The Jews have not yet surrendered to the Syrian army,
- 59:21Speaker 1: and Israel is at least for now, protecting them as
- 59:24Speaker 1: a buffer between it and Damascus. But the United States
- 59:29Speaker 1: conturn in Israel like that, like that, and forced them
- 59:34Speaker 1: to basically abandon the Jews. The US is a backstabbing
- 59:40Speaker 1: is a backstabbing country under Trump. Under Trump, the US
- 59:44Speaker 1: stabs its allies in the back. It stabs Europe, It
- 59:48Speaker 1: stabs the demonstrators in Iran, and it stabs the Kods.
- 59:53Speaker 1: It is a backstabbing regime that does not care one
- 59:57Speaker 1: iota for its allies. And of course, think about this,
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: think about this in the context of future national security.
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: If we have no allies because we stabed them on
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: in the back. American sold just died in Syria fighting
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: alongside the Cords to put ISIS terrorists in prison. This
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: United States government, Donald J. Trump has just basically released
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: them all. I don't know if how long US troops
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: will stay in Syria. There's still a few US troops
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: in Syria. My guess is they will leave. I hope
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: they leave because they're in danger nowt but there's video
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: now of escaped ISIS elements from the prisons and camps.
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: We're talking about thousands of them. One of these, just
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: one of these prisons hold five thousand ISIS members and
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: Trump just handed them their freedom, handed them their freedom.
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: I mean, this is from one of the from the Kods.
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: I really want to say to the people who are
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: watching right now. The world asked the Coods to fight
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: the most brutal terrorists they are in the world ISIS.
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: They fought bravely, and we have over fifteen to twenty
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: thousand martyrs and fifty thousand wounded. And then the world
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: asked us to be ruled by the same terrorists. That's
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: what's happening now. It's exactly the same as to ask
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: the Jews now you should be ruled by Hamas. And
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: when you see us being slatted, our girls being raped,
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: killed and sold as sex slaves, please don't think we
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: didn't fight, because we did. But you me adding this
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: betrayed us. You betrayed US. So, yeah, America the wonderful
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: ally again. Ambassador Tom Barack is out there celebrating this
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: wonderful ceasefire deal that has feed thousands of ISIS terrorists. Again,
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: Tokya is the winner here. Tokia is ultimately a hostile force.
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: It is a member of NATO, and yet it conspires
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: against the United States, against Israel, and against American interests
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: in the Middle East. And it has ambitions to become
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: a major force in the Middle East, and it is
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: teaming up with Saudis to do exactly that. Even the Saudis.
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: The more, the more and more I see, the more
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: they see how America behaves, the more they're turning away
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: from America towards trying to establish kind of an Islamic
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: Islamic NATO. Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey. Saudi Arabia has the money,
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: Pakistan has the nukes, and turky as the military forces.
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: That is a powerful combination. And that is not what
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: was expected. After the collapse of Chris Balah and the
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: failure of US side. It was not expected that we
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: would create an even worse alliance. And yeah, Maria says,
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: maybe Egypt, Yeah, I think Egypt will join that alliance.
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: All right, it's depressing. Sorry, but it's just frigging depressing.
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: All right, Let's do a few of these topics quickly,
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: and then we'll go to your to your questions. We
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: are way behind on our targets. We're about eighty dollars
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: short of our first hour target. And yet and yet
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: we are into our second hour already. So let's get
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: that first hour done. Eighty bucks to get to our
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: first hour targets. And so you can do a sticker,
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: you can ask a question. I'll answer the questions in
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: a little while they are it's a great way to
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: shape the show, and it's a great way to yeah,
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: to get me to talk about what you want me
- 1:04:30Speaker 1: to talk about, whatever you want me to talk about,
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: just to ask a question, and that way, that way
- 1:04:35Speaker 1: will will be up. Comment on it, all right. The
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: one of the consequences of the Trumpet administration's policies tariffs
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: and Greenland and just just Trump's insanity. Insanity is too
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: nice of word, I guess, but Trump's immorality, Trump's immortality
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: isn't basically incentivizing our allies to not consider themselves allies anymore.
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: And really seek out partnerships elsewhere in the world, and
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: clearly Canada last week exhibited what that looks like. Canadian
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: Prime Minister Connie visited China last week and met was she,
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: and from all evidence seems like they had a great meeting.
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: They both called their agreement a new strategic partnership. Connie
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: has committed Canada to reducing tariffs on electric cause, which
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: were matching the United States at one hundred percent, reducing
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: those dramatically to allow the importation of Chinese electric cause
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: into Canada. Canada. China, on the other hand, is reducing
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: taists significantly on certain agricultural products that Canada produces. I
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: think you can also think of Canada supplying China with
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: with oil. There is talk of another pipeline off there's
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: already a pipeline to the Pacific coast to load up
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: ships to take them to take them west to China.
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: As the United States become less of a lesser reliable
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: trading partner, she is really trying to present himself as
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: a stabilizing global force, as the United States is clearly
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: a destabilizing force. She China, of all people, is trying
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: to present themselves as we're pro fee trade. We're postability.
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: We'll do what we say we do. We're not gonna
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: stab people in the backs. You know, we're just stable.
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: We're just there. Canada have used the world as now
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: having a new world ODA. Uh And Uh, the United
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: States is not necessarily on Canada signed in this new
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: world ODA. And given how Trump is treated to Canada,
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: why should they think that. By the way, Trump freaked
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: out when he heard about these low tariffs on Chinese
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: cause just just made him not so we're gonna do
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: have to do something about it. He's gonna raise taffs
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: again on on Canada. Who knows what he's gonna do. Yeah,
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: I mean Washington. Trump is not gonna be happy with this. Uh.
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: They're gonna review trade with Canada. They're gonna review the
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: the the US m c A, which is the United States,
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: Mexico Canada trade packed. Uh. And it wouldn't be surprising
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: if they squeeze Canada even further in the future given
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: the closer relationship. Of course, this goes far beyond Chinese TVs.
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: It's just it's you know, Canada's a very very strained
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: relationship with China. You know, it arrested way wise Uh,
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: with the daughter of the way Wise founder. She was
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: a she was the CFO of Way Why and and
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: they've had a very strained relationship. And but but you know,
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: part of this agreement involves Chinese increased investment in and
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: in Canada, particularly around auto production. This is, by the way,
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: not good for American order companies who sell a lot
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: of cars in Canada and produce a lot of cars
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: in Canada. Uh. Chinese evs are high quality, very low cost,
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: and American makes nothing that really can compete with Chinese
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: evs right now, if you want evs, not it's not
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: clear that the Canadians want EV's, But if you want EV's,
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: there's nothing America produces that can compete with it. Uh.
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: So uh, you know, Canadian farmers will be able to
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: sell they can only seed. American farmer are still not
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: being able to sell any of the poke valleys to China.
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: Remember when Trump said He's got a deal and the
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: Chinese will buy a ton of Poke valleys, Not a
- 1:09:10Speaker 1: nothing's happened five months since that, and not a single
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: pok belly has moved from the United States to China.
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: It's just the Chinese. She is a master, just like Putin.
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: Putin and she are just masters at manipulating Trump, manipulating Trump. Uh.
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: Canada also said today that it would it would as
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: I said before, I think it would consider American taking
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: over Greenland as an attack on NATO and would right
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: to Greenland's defense or whatever that's worth. All right, all
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: right on the in the category of there's nutty Trump,
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: but then there's really nutty Trump. And by the way, right,
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: none of this is indication of TDS. You're like the
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: Greenland thing, I'm not making anything up. All this is
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: just Trump on you know, on this board of peace.
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: I'm not making it up. This is just Trump. You
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: can have no TV, you know whatever. You can just
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: read the news straight with no intonation and no point
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: of view. And this is just what falls out on
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: him is stabbing in the back. The COODS doesn't quite
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: TDS to see that. I don't know what you think
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: about this one. So this is a post by Donald Trump.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: When was this two days ago? Saturday? He says, the
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: Army Navy game. This is football, for those of you
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: who don't know, It's one of the greatest American traditions.
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: Unmatched patriotism, courage, and honor. This incredible tradition is now
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: at risk of being pushed aside by more college playoff
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: games and big TV. Not anymore all Caps. Under my administration,
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: the second Saturday in December belongs to Army Navy and
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: only Army Navy. I will soon sign a STARWIC executive
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: order securing an exclusive four hour broadcast window, so this
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: national event stands above commercial postseason games. Nor the game
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: or team can violate this time slot. On the field
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: their arrivals, but on the batter field, they are America's
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: unstoppable patriots, defending our country with tremendous strength and heart.
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: We must protect the tradition and the players who protect us.
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: Please let servers notice to all TV networks, stations and outlets.
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: God bless America and God bless our great Army Navy game.
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: President Donald J. Trump, I mean, this is not set tire.
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: I didn't make this up. This is not a consequence
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: of whatever. This is just a post he made it. So.
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: In other words, it's now in the United States going
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: to be illegal to play football. When the government says
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: it's playing football, you have to watch the great Patriotic
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: Government football game. It's now mandatory hmm. I mean yeah,
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: I mean, I mean this is a clear violation of
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: the First Amendment, a clear violation of the First Amendment,
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: even just the threat of it, even if he never
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: implements it is a violation. I mean, if you'll profit them,
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: if you'll profit them in any respect, and if you
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: value the First Amendment, you cannot defend us. And again,
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: you know, to all those people who think Trump is
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: the greatest president ever, how do you defend us? He's
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: basically telling TV stations what they're allowed to show and
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: what they're not allowed to show, all in the name
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: of nationalistic patriotic glory. It sounds like not mean so TDS.
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: It just sounds like, you know, nationalistic fascist bs. I
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: get to decide what football you can watch, only patriotic
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: games on this day, only the games I approve of
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: on this day. I mean, it's nuts, all right. Finally, Ice,
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: you know, the craziness in Minnesota continues. It is uh.
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: I want to remind everybody that Minnesota has very few
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: illegals in capaciton to other states around the country. Most
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: of the Somalis in Minnesota, and almost all the Samalis
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: committing fought in Minnesota are actually legally in Minnesota. You
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: might I like it, but they are, they're legal, So
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: whis I Ice there? It's just it's just it's just
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: you know Waltz, you know leftists, Somali fraud, you know
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: race blacks. It just demands let's go in. Then it
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: really is insane. Uh, you know, more videos come out,
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: more testimonies come out about the shooting. It's also now
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: clear that officer Jonathan Ross was not injured. If the
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: car scraped him, it barely touched him. He was clearly
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: not injured. He didn't go to the hospital as some
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: people claimed, and Ice indeed blocked the doctor from starting
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: CPR when she was still alive after the shooting. So
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: all of that, it just it just gets. The more
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: information gets released, the worse it is for and Yet,
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: and yet, while the FBI opened a probe a Minneapolis shooting, originally,
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: it doesn't exist now. The Justice Department is not investigating.
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: There's no investigation of this murder. They're not interested in
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: the truth. They don't care. These officers have full immunity.
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: In other words, you can shoot a woman in her
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: car from almost point blank range because I don't know,
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: because you are a coward who feels threatened even though
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: you scooted away and got away, and you will suffer
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: no consequences, no consequences. The Trauma Degistration is pushing for
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: an investigation of Renee Goods, the victim's partner, but not
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: of the officer who shot him. There's no investigation planned,
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: even though the FBS thought it was shut down. Now.
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: Also with regard to Minnesota, I got an email from
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: a friend who lives in Wilma, or she actually lives.
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: Her and her husband live tite of Wilma, Minnesota. WIM
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: I told you last time. Wilma's basically what two and
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: a half hours due west of Minneapolis. Just drive straight.
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: I forget the name of the highway. Woman has a
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: population of about twenty thousand people. It's not a large
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: metro area. It's a small Rule Minnesota town. It has
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: some Somalise who have settled there and lived there. Some
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: percentage of the population is from Somali Somalia. Last week,
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: starting on Wednesday, ice showed up in Wilma in Wimar, Minnesota,
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: not just in Minneapolis, but in Warma on Monday. This
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: is on the sixteenth, Sorry, on the on the on
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: the twelfth, Monday to twelfth, from six to eight agents,
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: well out Monday afternoon there. So I'm reading from a
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: news story in the local you know, car eleven ka
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: r E eleven news right local news from six to
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: eight agents one Monday afternoon in downtown Wilma, arresting and
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: dragging a nineteen year old Somali woman to an unmarked vehicle.
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: You can find the video of this on on Instagram.
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: They give the link. The Somali woman is a nineteen
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: year old still in high school and it's here on
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: Form I ninety four. Her family did apply for green
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: Cord status, which they also got a paper in the
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: mail saying that they did the paperwork and they are
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: in the process. As of Tuesday morning, the ICE website
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: showed the woman as being booked into the agency system,
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: but the location has not yet been listed. The family
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: has not received a phone call. They don't know where
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: she is. The young woman's mother told uh told the
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: cultural liaison at the woman public schools that the federal
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: agents were following her daughter from a parking lot to
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: her home and then to drop her mom off at work.
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: They then followed her into downtown while she was picking
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: up food for her family. She did put the window
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: down just to ask them what they wanted, and then
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: the agent reached in and took her out of the car.
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: Family and friends of the nineteen year old woman, who
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: was still in high school, state they were not They
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: do not even know that. They did not even know
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: she was arrested if not a bystander and not captured
- 1:19:01Speaker 1: the video of her arrest, So nothing from ice. God
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: forbid you let the you know. At the same time
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: or the same period, agents arrested a man doing shift
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: change at Jenny O'touki store processing plan in Wilmat Avenue, Southwest.
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: According to witnesses interviewed, you know, it goes on well
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: in our Parents continue to keep their kids home from
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: school due to this week's ice activity in town. Walmart
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: School Superintendent doctor Bail Adams says and fourteen kids were
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: absent on Tuesday nine and forty five on Wednesday. A
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: Tuesday's anti ice protest in downtown Wilma, the Somali woman
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: said parents are afraid of ice. Adams sent a message
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: distinct parents Tuesday saying ICE agents can then cannot enter
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: district schools without to want and if they have one.
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: They won't be allowed to take anyone without parent being present.
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: Adam said they remain committed to keeping schools a safe
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: place as if ICE cares about what the school superintendent
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: thinks about any of this. Right, A number of businesses
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: are now closed in Wilma right because their workers have
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: been arrested. Generally, downtown Wilma is quiet. The businesses they
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: have no business because ICE is in the streets and
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: therefore nobody wants to be out there and be harassed
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: by them. Republican state representative the Dave Bakup said he
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: normally supports ICE's efforts as they look for criminals. He says,
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: I want all these folks gone, he means the criminals.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: Everyone supports that, but we can't get answers. We can't
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: get answer from anybody about why they're taking a high
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: school student. Baker said his community is on fire right now,
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: with people scared to bring their children to school or
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: go out and spend their money in business. About seventeen
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: percent of wilmart population is far on board, according to
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: the US Census Viewer. You know, he says, yeah, one
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: of the stories, which is just ridiculous. Four ICE agents
- 1:21:36Speaker 1: went an ate lunch at a family owned Mexican restaurant
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: in Wilmot. He says, here, yesterday's this is on Thursday.
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: This is on Thursday last week. They ate lunch, they paid,
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: they left, and then four hours later they came back
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: and arrested three members of the restaurant's staff. The restaurant
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: and closed. It's not open for business, so the aid lunch.
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: I wonder if they tipped. You know. This is from
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: again from this is from Walmart radio. The effects of
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: ice in the local area continue to be defelt. Two
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: popular Walmar restaurants were being closed. You know. The Star
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: Tribune says ice agents ate at the restaurant and then
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: went over and arrested the people who worked there. Well,
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: no states have to be made directly tying the closure
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: to the presence of ice. Many restaurants have closed in
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: Minnesota with the elevated ice operation. A group of students
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: walked out of class about fifteen minutes at Walmart High
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: School yesterday afternoon. Many health signs asking ice to get
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: out of town a Monday afternoon. That's a nineteen year
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: old was taken right. It continues this as having a
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: signific an impact on the town. So, Kathy, you send
- 1:23:04Speaker 1: me this is saying, this is having a significian impact
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: on Lawen and myself, law as her husband. Uh, you know,
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: the long time and very generous supporters of the Ironman Institute.
- 1:23:16Speaker 1: I visited Wilma because Lawen, you still a factory, a
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: business out there, a factory out there, and he invited
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: me to come and speak to his executives years ago.
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: I think I think I've been in Wimart twice. I mean,
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: these are amazing people. It's not exactly what you would consider,
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: you know, a highly liberal town, fairly conservative people out
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: there in Wrule Minnesota. And yet these people are pissed off. Uh,
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: she says, we can hardly focus on anything else. I
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: wonder if ICE agents will be permanently stationed in Wilma.
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: It's just, this is just one week of news articles
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: about ice rays and a normally quiet little town in rural,
- 1:24:03Speaker 1: rural Minnesota, USA. This is not just in metro areas.
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: It's not just in blue areas. It's not just it's
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: hurting people everywhere with no upside, no benefit, no no
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: value created, no nothing. You know, you've taken three I
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: don't know people who worked at a Mexican restaurant. Maybe
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: they hear illegally who kids, They're not crooks, They're not criminals.
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: By the way, illegally, you know, not having papers and
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: working in the United States is not a criminal act.
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: It's not criminal law. The disrupting lives of people, the
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: treating human beings human beings in the ugliest of fashion,
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: with real brutality. They have no respect for human life,
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: as we sail with the shooting, no respect for human life.
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: I mean, the arrogance and the police state tactics of
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: these goons is just pathetic. And I know every time
- 1:25:21Speaker 1: I say this, by the way, I lose a bunch
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: of subscribers. I mean, I think more than even when
- 1:25:28Speaker 1: I attacked Trump during the elections. In the last few
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: days I've lost I mean I lost NET about twenty
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: so people add but then Net on a particular day
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: I lost twenty subscriber. That's a lot, and that's purely
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: because of my comments on ICE. But I'm glad good riddance,
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: and I'm gonna keep saying it because if we don't
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: if we don't stand up to them, if we don't
- 1:25:56Speaker 1: talk about it, if we just acquiesce, then that tells
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: the people in power that they can get away with
- 1:26:04Speaker 1: it and things will only get worse, only get worse,
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: significantly worse. Now they're going after illegals next their goal,
- 1:26:14Speaker 1: after any one of us for anything. Remember it's not
- 1:26:18Speaker 1: a criminal act, so we all commit some misdemeanors. I mean,
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: the law is written in such a way that it's
- 1:26:28Speaker 1: hard not to write. All right, thank you, guys, and
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: thank you Kathy for sending me those eclips for Walmart.
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: And so let's turn now to a super chat. We're
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: way behind on our goals today, guys. We're well into
- 1:26:57Speaker 1: second hour, probably going to a third hour given the
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: number of questions we have, but to all like two
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: and five dollars questions. So if you want to ask
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: a question moving forward, I encourage you to do twenty
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: dollars or fifty dollars, one hundred dollars, you know, so
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: we can we can chip away at these goals and
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: get to some reasonable reasonable competition for the for the
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: for the show. Let me remind you of our sponsors

- 1:31:52Speaker 1: the way to five hundred, although twenty dollars and above
- 1:31:54Speaker 1: appreciated right now because it's so late. And what else?
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: Did I want want to say? Uh? Yeah, all good,
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: All right, let's let's jump in with some of our questions. Yeah,
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: those of you who are watching later or listening by podcast,
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: support the show through Patreon, trade with me, value for value.
- 1:32:20Speaker 1: I want to say that, all right, Alex is not
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: close to Trump, and he's not close to Mega. He
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: is he is trying to influence the better elements within
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: the Republican Party to do better things than they would
- 1:32:38Speaker 1: do without him his influence. That's how I read it,
- 1:32:42Speaker 1: all right. Let me just thank the stick of people, John,
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: thank you, and Apollo, thank you, Apollo zeus? And who
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: else do we have? Who else? Who else? Who else? Yes?
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: I see Gail, thank you. And that might be it
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: for stickers. We're shortened stickers. Guys, jump in with stickers please,
- 1:33:08Speaker 1: all right? That that that is it? All right? So
- 1:33:12Speaker 1: coming over with your stickers and uh and questions and
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: everything else, and let's get let's get the numbers up.
- 1:33:19Speaker 1: Let's let's uh, let's uh, you know, make this number
- 1:33:23Speaker 1: reflect the value that you get from the show. All right.
- 1:33:28Speaker 1: I think it's all twenty dollars, So let's jump in
- 1:33:30Speaker 1: with the twenty dollars. Questions. Is the Trumpet? This is Liam?
- 1:33:33Speaker 1: Is the Trumpet? Administration starting to get worried the population
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: is turning against them? Or they such delusional megalomaniacs. They're
- 1:33:41Speaker 1: even more confident and bold with their random acts of fascism.
- 1:33:45Speaker 1: I think they all worried the population is stunning against them,
- 1:33:48Speaker 1: although I think people like Miller don't really care, and
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: they are bold. Somebody gave the example of you know
- 1:33:56Speaker 1: when Hobbs, when when Rovers's weight was overturned and the
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: American population was against Republicans and they took a beating
- 1:34:05Speaker 1: in the next election. Right, but any of the pro
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: life Republicans regret all the fighting that led to the
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: reversal of Rovers's weight. No, they don't. They'll take the
- 1:34:17Speaker 1: electoral loss because they got it. If I mean Miller's perspective,
- 1:34:21Speaker 1: I think is if we can, if we can kick
- 1:34:25Speaker 1: out all the legal immigrants and some legal ones that
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: we don't like, and if we can take Alaska, you
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: know Alaska, could we take Greenland, and we can you know,
- 1:34:34Speaker 1: whip into shape the world or however they think, or
- 1:34:37Speaker 1: have tariffs or whatever, even if we lose an election
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: and still be worth it because long term these things
- 1:34:42Speaker 1: will survive and reshape America. I think he's wrong. But
- 1:34:47Speaker 1: they're doing it in spite of the fact that it's unpopular.
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: I mean, poll aft to poll left to poll show
- 1:34:51Speaker 1: it's unpopular, and yet they're doubling up on it because
- 1:34:54Speaker 1: they don't know how to admit failure and walk it back,
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: walk it back objective. AI, thank you for the support.
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: I appreciate that Wyatt, What did Ran mean by quote
- 1:35:16Speaker 1: You're letting this greatest of countries be devoured by any
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: scum from any corner of the earth. Well, you concede
- 1:35:24Speaker 1: that it is selfish to live for your country, and
- 1:35:29Speaker 1: your moral duty is to what Where is this quote?
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: Can you? Can you give me a citation? Give me
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: a citation of where this is? Right Wyatt? Wherever you are.
- 1:35:55Speaker 1: And by the way, I you know, given that Imand
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: would consider h a scum. She would concern anybody with
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: bad ideas, no matter where they came from, including or
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: maybe Pinmelli from Europe. But I'm interested in where that
- 1:36:18Speaker 1: quote actually comes from. Val And by the way, it's
- 1:36:25Speaker 1: you know she is uh yeah, val finished E is UF.
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: I'm not sure what he is in UF means inspiring,
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: loved was was his childhood memory of his dad, a creator,
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: someone crafting good. Shocked by the antitrust laws Microsoft first,
- 1:36:57Speaker 1: but then use them on Google. Great les lessons, inequality
- 1:37:01Speaker 1: ain't poverty? What is e of U is uf? Where
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: is he is he? Here? Is Vale here? To tell
- 1:37:12Speaker 1: me which book he's referring to? It sounds like a book?
- 1:37:16Speaker 1: Or am I just flaking because it's obvious. What it
- 1:37:19Speaker 1: is the book? Which book? Equal is unfair? Oh? My book,
- 1:37:25Speaker 1: Equal is unfair. I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's a
- 1:37:29Speaker 1: good book. It's a good book. And I'm hoping anti
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: just laws are as bad as written in the book.
- 1:37:36Speaker 1: They're actually worse. I've learned even more about anti just
- 1:37:38Speaker 1: since then, and they're even they're even worse. So yeah,
- 1:37:43Speaker 1: I'm glad. I'm glad you liked it. Everybody should read it.
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: I hope everybody reads it. All right, let's see, Okay,
- 1:37:50Speaker 1: twenty Australia dollars, we'll take that. In regard to the
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: toppling of authoritarian regimes, would it be correct to say
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: sovereignty is not determined by borders. It is determined by
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: the degree to which individual rights are protected within those borders. Yes, absolutely, absolutely,
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: I think that's right. I'd like the but why it
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: says it's from Atlas Shrugged. I'd like the passage. I
- 1:38:25Speaker 1: want to get the full context of what she's saying
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: so I could comment on it. I don't remember that
- 1:38:30Speaker 1: that line. And by the way, you know what I
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: think is going on because in Atlas Shrugged there's no immigration,
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: so she's not talking about immigration. What is happening in
- 1:38:43Speaker 1: Atlas Shrugged is the United States is funding the rest
- 1:38:46Speaker 1: of the world. Right, the United States is being devoured
- 1:38:53Speaker 1: by the scum from any corner of the earth because
- 1:38:55Speaker 1: it's sending money to every corner of the earth. This
- 1:38:59Speaker 1: is the money that Ragnar is stealing. Right. So what
- 1:39:04Speaker 1: she's meaning here is not immigration. Iron Land was very
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: pro immigration. And while you can see that it's selfish
- 1:39:15Speaker 1: to live for your country, yes you can see that,
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: but they think that selfishness is bad and you're and
- 1:39:21Speaker 1: they therefore they meet. They believe them all duty is
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: to live for the globe, and therefore they are subsidizing
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: the globe. They're funding the globe. Well, just like today,
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: to some extent, our far and aid is not quite
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: as robust as it is in Atlas Shrugged, and we're
- 1:39:37Speaker 1: not as poor as we are in Atlas Shrugged. But yeah,
- 1:39:41Speaker 1: a far and aid should be zero. It should it
- 1:39:43Speaker 1: should be focused on those countries that provide us with
- 1:39:48Speaker 1: a clear a clear uh value. It should be only value.
- 1:39:56Speaker 1: But the reality is that we spend what fifty billion
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: dollars on fearn aid, maybe it's most sixty billion dollars
- 1:40:01Speaker 1: in foreign eight. Even if you got that sixty billion,
- 1:40:05Speaker 1: that's nothing. The real problem in America today is not
- 1:40:10Speaker 1: that we are sending money overseas. The real problem of
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: America today is that we're taxing young people and they're
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: giving them money to rich people, to old people who
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: often are rich. The biggest scam in the world right
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: now is the fact that the United States has a
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: massive redistribution program from young to old. That's what bankrupt
- 1:40:35Speaker 1: in the country. The global policy is not bankrupt in
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: the country. And indeed, the United States global policy has
- 1:40:46Speaker 1: not been fundamentally altruistic in other than in the sense
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: that of not defeating its enemies. She didn't want us
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: in a global alliance with other people's states. How do
- 1:40:58Speaker 1: you know that? How do you know that if you've
- 1:41:01Speaker 1: got a quote from mind Rand which she says we
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: shouldn't be in a global alliance with other people's states.
- 1:41:08Speaker 1: She supported the United States defending its interest and if
- 1:41:11Speaker 1: that meant being an alliance with other countries, then that
- 1:41:16Speaker 1: served our interests. She believed in the United States defeating
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: our enemies. She believed in crushing you on. She believed
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: in crushing on She called them the People's States, and
- 1:41:28Speaker 1: Ala shrug atlastruct is I hate to break it to
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: you fiction fiction. It was not a description of the
- 1:41:39Speaker 1: United States as it was. It was a exscription of
- 1:41:41Speaker 1: the United States as it would become as it got worse.
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: But Ala Shrugg is not. She's not when she's talking
- 1:41:49Speaker 1: about the People's States. She's not talking about Europe of
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: the time she's talking about Europe of Atla Shrug time.
- 1:42:00Speaker 1: I mean, if this is to suggest somehow that Ironman
- 1:42:02Speaker 1: would support Donald Trump's phone policy, You're nuts. You're nuts.
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: Would never support Donald Trump's uh covering favor with Putin,
- 1:42:14Speaker 1: She would never support his brown nosing. She he she
- 1:42:20Speaker 1: wouldn't support you know, annexing Greenland. You have today is
- 1:42:27Speaker 1: far from the People's state that is described in Atlas Shrugged.
- 1:42:30Speaker 1: I mean, again, you're making stuff up. You don't know
- 1:42:33Speaker 1: what you're talking about. And uh, you know, Iran explicitly
- 1:42:37Speaker 1: said she supported Israel, so and she also said she
- 1:42:42Speaker 1: supported attacking you on so I don't think she would
- 1:42:51Speaker 1: advocate for a anti alliance. Uh you know, uh uh
- 1:42:57Speaker 1: you know, do what Trump is doing, bullying bullying countries
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: around the world for what exactly now I've in the
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: past said I'm all in favor of leaving NATO. And
- 1:43:07Speaker 1: you know, you could imagine leaving NATO. You do it properly.
- 1:43:09Speaker 1: You don't do it through confrontation over Greenland. You do
- 1:43:13Speaker 1: it by leaving NATO. You set a plan out five
- 1:43:17Speaker 1: ten years out and you say we're gonna move troops
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: out of Europe and Europe take over responsibility for defending yourselves,
- 1:43:24Speaker 1: and we're gonna leave NATO. And I think Iinman would
- 1:43:26Speaker 1: be in favor of that. I'm certainly in favor of that.
- 1:43:29Speaker 1: And at the same time you would say we're against Russia.
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: You know, we'll help you with arms to fight the Russians.
- 1:43:39Speaker 1: We just don't think you need NATO anymore because you
- 1:43:42Speaker 1: can do it yourself. Not Trump, nothing close to Trump, Jamie.
- 1:43:52Speaker 1: A lot of conservatives here unhappy with China deal due
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: to interference in elections, bounties placed on Canadian heads see
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: police in our soil, kidnap citizens. Is this alliance good
- 1:44:03Speaker 1: for Canadian perspective? Well, I mean it depends what the
- 1:44:06Speaker 1: alliance involved. I think trade is good for the Canadian perspective.
- 1:44:09Speaker 1: I think low tariffs with China is good from the
- 1:44:11Speaker 1: Canadian perspective, I think it's more than that. It's bad,
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: but Canada is facing lots of bad alternatives created by Trump.
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: Trump is the source of that. Trump is the source
- 1:44:23Speaker 1: of that. So you know, Trump is the one who
- 1:44:30Speaker 1: has again stabbed an ally in the back. That's his
- 1:44:33Speaker 1: m that's his motus of purandi. It's to stab allies
- 1:44:36Speaker 1: in the back. He stabbed Canada in the back. You know,
- 1:44:40Speaker 1: there's no reason Canada shouldn't trade with China, and lowering
- 1:44:45Speaker 1: tariffs is what Canada should do generally, and having better
- 1:44:49Speaker 1: trade relations with China is a good thing. So yeah,
- 1:44:53Speaker 1: if it's more than that, if it's giving them any
- 1:44:55Speaker 1: kind of concessions, given all these other things that you mentioned,
- 1:44:58Speaker 1: that's bad. But trade is a good thing Canada. I mean,
- 1:45:01Speaker 1: in my view, you should just go unilaterally zero tariffs.
- 1:45:15Speaker 1: Chaws Bud. I suspect that even if loved even if
- 1:45:20Speaker 1: loved Ice, I wouldn't love them for very long if
- 1:45:24Speaker 1: they robbed me of my enchiladas. That's probably why the
- 1:45:28Speaker 1: agents didn't arrest anyone during lunchtime. Probably the enchiladas came first.
- 1:45:32Speaker 1: I think that's absolutely right. No, Trump is completely wrong
- 1:45:38Speaker 1: in Greenland. The United States saysn't need Greenland. There's zero
- 1:45:41Speaker 1: reason for the United States to do Greenland. It's just
- 1:45:46Speaker 1: it's all got to do wrapped up with Trump's ego.
- 1:45:48Speaker 1: It has nothing to do with national security. Trump is
- 1:45:54Speaker 1: wrong on this. While you know, he was right about
- 1:45:58Speaker 1: European's not paying enough into to NATO. He was right
- 1:46:02Speaker 1: in pressuring them to do that to increase their payments
- 1:46:04Speaker 1: in NATO, although they were ready doing it because of
- 1:46:08Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. You know, Russian war with Ukraine that started
- 1:46:12Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen. But no, Trump is wrong on the way.
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: He's approaching it, wrong in his desires. He is just
- 1:46:22Speaker 1: a whim worshiping thug. There's nothing more than that. There's
- 1:46:25Speaker 1: no strategy here, there's no strategic necessity here. Cst whatever
- 1:46:34Speaker 1: high doctor book. I'm dealing with a very painful breakup
- 1:46:38Speaker 1: that involved betrayal and deception from someone I thought I loved.
- 1:46:42Speaker 1: Now it's time to work on myself, and Yuan's rules
- 1:46:44Speaker 1: for life will suddenly help. Thanks for all that you do.
- 1:46:48Speaker 1: I am sorry that you're having to deal with a breakup.
- 1:46:52Speaker 1: It's sad, But if it really did involve betrayal and deception.
- 1:46:57Speaker 1: It had to be done, and you have to move on,
- 1:47:00Speaker 1: and and it wasn't good for you even if they
- 1:47:04Speaker 1: even if you love them. So you've got to get
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: over it, working yourself. I hope Rules for Life helps,
- 1:47:09Speaker 1: you know, check out check out virtual selfishness. And yeah,
- 1:47:15Speaker 1: good luck, good luck getting over it. It's not easy,
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: not easy. Ce V Milkins says, twenty fifth Amendment. Now, yes,
- 1:47:22Speaker 1: I mean if the Republicans had balls, which they don't,
- 1:47:25Speaker 1: so it won't happen, they would, they would put pressure
- 1:47:29Speaker 1: on the cabinet to enforce the twenty fifth Amendment and
- 1:47:33Speaker 1: rule Donald Trump incapacitated, not not in a mental position
- 1:47:39Speaker 1: to be able to govern. I think I think he's
- 1:47:42Speaker 1: just as bad in a sense in terms of mental state,
- 1:47:46Speaker 1: as as Biden was worse than a sense because because
- 1:47:50Speaker 1: you know, he still projects competence even though he's completely
- 1:47:56Speaker 1: completely not there in a sense of he's completely emotional.
- 1:48:02Speaker 1: But nobody will do it. And this cabinet, as I
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: told you before the election, this cabinet is just a
- 1:48:07Speaker 1: bunch of yes men. There's no talent on the cabinet,
- 1:48:10Speaker 1: and there's no and there's no there's no courage, there's no,
- 1:48:15Speaker 1: And there's no commitment to the United States of America.
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: The commitment is to Trump. There's no there's no loyalty
- 1:48:21Speaker 1: to America, and there's no loyalty to the Constitution. Nobody
- 1:48:23Speaker 1: cares about the Constitution. And if ICE needs to be
- 1:48:28Speaker 1: filmed and it's a public service, should more objectivists be
- 1:48:31Speaker 1: filming or is objectivesm more about ideas for others to
- 1:48:35Speaker 1: put into action. No. I mean, if there's ice in
- 1:48:37Speaker 1: your neighborhood, you should go out and film them. I
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: think filming ice is important. I think it's a it's
- 1:48:43Speaker 1: an incredible value. But I don't think you should drive
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: to Minnesota in order to do it. There's enough people
- 1:48:49Speaker 1: already doing it in Minnesota. But if they're in your neighborhood,
- 1:48:51Speaker 1: do it. But there's no objectivists, it's too small of
- 1:48:56Speaker 1: group at this point to have a major impact on
- 1:49:00Speaker 1: something like that. But to the extent that this is
- 1:49:02Speaker 1: an issue with that pisses you off, that upsets you,
- 1:49:05Speaker 1: and that you want to get engaged and you want
- 1:49:07Speaker 1: to get active, yeah, go go. You know, if ICE
- 1:49:11Speaker 1: is in your city, go to where they are and
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: film them. Be careful, you know, you know, don't don't
- 1:49:19Speaker 1: put yourself in physical danger, but do what you can
- 1:49:21Speaker 1: to document what they are doing. Clark, my trouble with
- 1:49:28Speaker 1: Trump isn't that he's Hitler. My problem with Trump is
- 1:49:31Speaker 1: that he's not Hitler. Yes, that's nick foyintis. There's a
- 1:49:35Speaker 1: quote from Nick foyintis. Trump is not Hitler enough. Trump
- 1:49:39Speaker 1: is not fascist enough. Trump is not allowing ice to
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: be brutal enough. That's nick foyints. Nick foyinters want Trump
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: to be more like Hitler. That's a direct quote, by
- 1:49:50Speaker 1: the way, direct quote. So for those of you who
- 1:49:52Speaker 1: think Nick Foyintis is not that bad, that's about as
- 1:49:55Speaker 1: bad as it gets. Clark. Where anti semitism is to
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: control society as a death wish, Yeah, and certainly parts
- 1:50:05Speaker 1: of the right right now have that. I guess. There
- 1:50:07Speaker 1: was a number of influencers last over the weekend, nick
- 1:50:11Speaker 1: Foyd's being one of them, with a bunch of other
- 1:50:13Speaker 1: other people, including what's the name the brothers from Romania
- 1:50:18Speaker 1: UH went to a nightclub with this nightclub explosively advertising
- 1:50:23Speaker 1: that they were playing they were going to play Kadio
- 1:50:28Speaker 1: West's anti semitic song about Hitler UH and rap song
- 1:50:33Speaker 1: about Hitler and so all these anti Semitic influencers went
- 1:50:38Speaker 1: to the nightclub and partied to West's anti semitic song,
- 1:50:49Speaker 1: as if eventually tomorrow same quote is set to release
- 1:50:53Speaker 1: more decisions, maybe on teriffs. Do you think the public
- 1:50:56Speaker 1: reaction has played a part in the delay or is
- 1:50:58Speaker 1: the calle really this divided? I don't know. I just
- 1:51:01Speaker 1: don't know what has caused the delay over the Tavis issue.
- 1:51:05Speaker 1: It could be trying to build a larger majority. It
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: could be getting the decisions, writing the decisions to such
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: a way as to garden more support, because if they're
- 1:51:18Speaker 1: going to tell Donald Trump that he's done something that's unconstitutional,
- 1:51:23Speaker 1: I think the majority wants to be as large as possible,
- 1:51:26Speaker 1: and I wouldn't be surprised if, given you know the
- 1:51:30Speaker 1: nature of you know, Chief Justice, he is trying to
- 1:51:36Speaker 1: build as big of a coalition as many people to
- 1:51:39Speaker 1: support the decision as possible. And I think that's probably
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: the nature of the debate. But I think we'll know
- 1:51:44Speaker 1: a lot more about that when the decision is released.
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: Everything else is speculation at this point. James, what happens
- 1:51:55Speaker 1: when true masculinity is demonized? It is replaced with these
- 1:51:59Speaker 1: sorry uses for alpha males like Trump and Tate, which
- 1:52:04Speaker 1: miss used to stosterone. Yes, I think that's right. Of course,
- 1:52:09Speaker 1: the whole idea of what true masculinity is is a
- 1:52:13Speaker 1: question which needs to be thought about and really considered.
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: It's it's it's not a click out and obvious what masculinity,
- 1:52:21Speaker 1: What true masculinity is. I also think it's a concept
- 1:52:25Speaker 1: that needs rethinking in the modern world. True masculinity today
- 1:52:29Speaker 1: is not the same as true masculinity in the Bronze Age,
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: and it needs to be It needs to be thought
- 1:52:36Speaker 1: about what it actually means and what it relates to.
- 1:52:38Speaker 1: But yes, when men broadly are demonized, then uh, and
- 1:52:45Speaker 1: and and when men are viewed as toxic by the
- 1:52:50Speaker 1: very nature, then people like Taits and Trump rise up
- 1:52:56Speaker 1: to kind of fill in a void that's created sadly,
- 1:52:59Speaker 1: and and particularly when there's nobody out there advocating for
- 1:53:03Speaker 1: proper masculinity, a healthy masculinity. Okay, James, having Jason Ryans
- 1:53:15Speaker 1: on to hear his takedown an assessment of Trump so
- 1:53:18Speaker 1: far would be beautiful. Did he ever get back to you? Yeah,
- 1:53:22Speaker 1: I mean he's gonna be on. It's just it's just
- 1:53:24Speaker 1: an issue of when you know. So there's just a
- 1:53:29Speaker 1: there's a schedule, I think Greg. We've got Greg coming up.
- 1:53:33Speaker 1: Greg Selma is coming up. You can ask him about Trump.
- 1:53:36Speaker 1: He'll give you here's assessment of Trump. We've got terror
- 1:53:40Speaker 1: Smith scheduled. We've got a couple of other people schedule.
- 1:53:46Speaker 1: So the schedules are Indeed, we got Agustina coming up,
- 1:53:50Speaker 1: So we're going to get a big update from Augustina
- 1:53:53Speaker 1: about me Lay. She's been to Argentina. She's really following
- 1:53:56Speaker 1: me Lay closely. She was there during the parliamentary elections,
- 1:54:00Speaker 1: so we talk about me Lay well. Also were talking
- 1:54:02Speaker 1: about immigration. She's an immigration expert. So yeah, we've got
- 1:54:07Speaker 1: a bunch of people to talk to in the weeks
- 1:54:09Speaker 1: to come. Next week I think is Greg. No, No,
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: next week is not Greg. Who's next week on? Let
- 1:54:15Speaker 1: me see who's next week? Oh, next week has been Bear.
- 1:54:21Speaker 1: Next week has been Bear, and then I'm gone the
- 1:54:23Speaker 1: following Monday, and then the week after that is Greg.
- 1:54:26Speaker 1: And then two weeks after this Tara. And I'm not
- 1:54:30Speaker 1: sure when we have Augustina, but I know we have Augustina.
- 1:54:34Speaker 1: I guess we're still negotiating with Augustina. The date and
- 1:54:36Speaker 1: Jason's in the pipeline. Liam was Hitler much more popular
- 1:54:42Speaker 1: than Trump in his early years of power? Well, I
- 1:54:45Speaker 1: think so, but it's hard to tell because I don't
- 1:54:47Speaker 1: think there were any polls in those days. I don't
- 1:54:50Speaker 1: know how reliable the polls. Well, I don't know, but
- 1:54:53Speaker 1: I think he was, but I'm not for sure. Man,
- 1:54:57Speaker 1: But when Hitler became for me, he didn't have he
- 1:55:00Speaker 1: didn't have majority, he didn't win a majority, So it's
- 1:55:03Speaker 1: hard to tell. Did you see the Finnish action film
- 1:55:13Speaker 1: she Sue wrote to Revenge? It showed Russians as bad
- 1:55:16Speaker 1: guys went to Finns in World War Two? Sort of
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: on the German side. No, Finland was invaded by Russia
- 1:55:24Speaker 1: and it fought a war against Russia against the Soviet
- 1:55:27Speaker 1: Union during the war, so they would only be considered
- 1:55:32Speaker 1: on Germany side because they were fighting against Russia and
- 1:55:35Speaker 1: Russia was fighting against Germany. But I don't think they
- 1:55:38Speaker 1: were in Germany side. I think they were just fighting
- 1:55:41Speaker 1: Russia because Russia had invaded them. How about Campbell, How
- 1:55:47Speaker 1: do Republicans think they're going to keep the Hispanic vote
- 1:55:50Speaker 1: after what they unleashed on that community. I just don't
- 1:55:53Speaker 1: see how Maga is sustainable. Who knows? Why did people
- 1:55:57Speaker 1: even vote for him? He told them this is what
- 1:55:59Speaker 1: he would do. He said it he was gonna deport
- 1:56:03Speaker 1: millions of people he and yet people voted for him.
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: So I don't know if these things how many minds
- 1:56:10Speaker 1: this actually changes? Happa Campbell, the ice thugs who killed
- 1:56:13Speaker 1: that woman received over a million dollars on GoFundMe. This
- 1:56:17Speaker 1: is the inverted clown world we live in. It really
- 1:56:20Speaker 1: is hubbable and demodelizing, demodelizing. Not you have a job
- 1:56:29Speaker 1: with him? Could you do a show reacting to gooble speeches? No?
- 1:56:33Speaker 1: Why would I do that? Comparing his rhetoric to the
- 1:56:35Speaker 1: rhetoric we're hearing today from Steven Miller and other trumpgoons. God,
- 1:56:40Speaker 1: I mean that would be that would be hard. I
- 1:56:44Speaker 1: mean I could I could go read them. I couldn't
- 1:56:48Speaker 1: listen to them. I could go the German anyway, but
- 1:56:50Speaker 1: I could read them and see see if I wanted
- 1:56:54Speaker 1: to do that. I mean, somebody paid me a thousand
- 1:56:55Speaker 1: dollars like a show sponsorship. Maybe I do it, but
- 1:56:59Speaker 1: just like that for I don't know, real spuck, did
- 1:57:05Speaker 1: you do much marching and the IDF. Does it help? No,
- 1:57:08Speaker 1: and no, I don't know what it helps. And no,
- 1:57:10Speaker 1: we didn't do much marching. Marching is you know, authoritarian
- 1:57:14Speaker 1: regimes do a lot of marching because it's important, the
- 1:57:17Speaker 1: little details important. Our uniforms were crap. We were pretty disheveled.
- 1:57:22Speaker 1: And you know, the Israeli army is quite informal as
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: compared to a lot of other armies, and partially what
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: makes it good and marching is very formal. Canadian news
- 1:57:40Speaker 1: Mark Connie makes a deal with Kutau. Yeah, I mean,
- 1:57:44Speaker 1: sadly everybody's made making deals with Katza because they're willing
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: to hand out lots of lots of money. That's pretty disgusting,
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: but it's not surprising. I mean, Trump is their best friends.
- 1:57:55Speaker 1: So why wouldn't the Canadians get in on the act? Okay,
- 1:58:02Speaker 1: Steve O how Ron, what do you think of sovereign immunity?
- 1:58:05Speaker 1: Is there a good objective reason to declare government immune
- 1:58:09Speaker 1: from all lawsuits? No? You know, as long as we
- 1:58:14Speaker 1: have a rational legal system where you can only suit
- 1:58:17Speaker 1: people for something that deserves suit, gross negligence or something
- 1:58:24Speaker 1: that exeed, you know that is clearly bad. Right. Problem
- 1:58:30Speaker 1: is we live in a very litigious society, where the
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: courts allow lawsuits that shouldn't be allowed for things that
- 1:58:37Speaker 1: shouldn't be You shouldn't be allowed to sue over But no,
- 1:58:41Speaker 1: I don't believe in solveign immunity and and releasing government
- 1:58:45Speaker 1: from all again. I would like to see our liability
- 1:58:52Speaker 1: system reformed so that rationality is brought back into lawsuits
- 1:58:57Speaker 1: over liability issues. Steve, Wo, do you know all the
- 1:59:02Speaker 1: names of all the different types of syllogisms? No, I
- 1:59:07Speaker 1: don't not at all. STEVEO, to whom must one provide
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: a holiday and birthday gifts should run by a gift
- 1:59:18Speaker 1: for his boss? Oh, I don't know. I mean it
- 1:59:21Speaker 1: depends on your relationship. Generally, I'd say probably not. But
- 1:59:27Speaker 1: please don't buy me a gift if I'm your boss
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: and I never expected wanted gifts from my employees. I
- 1:59:36Speaker 1: mean gifts. Gifts should be genuine, so family members, close
- 1:59:41Speaker 1: family members and friends and even then, I mean, I
- 1:59:46Speaker 1: think at a certain age, at a sort of level
- 1:59:49Speaker 1: of wealth, you should agree not to give gifts. So
- 1:59:55Speaker 1: we with our friends basically made the agreement no gifts
- 1:59:58Speaker 1: on Christmas, no gifts on on both days. It's just
- 2:00:02Speaker 1: too difficult to figure a gift a good gift out.
- 2:00:05Speaker 1: And you know, most of these people have what they want.
- 2:00:09Speaker 1: It's not like they're going to get something they really
- 2:00:11Speaker 1: need for me that they don't have. So I'm not
- 2:00:15Speaker 1: big on gift giving. I mean, I think it's nice
- 2:00:18Speaker 1: and it's great and with kids and family and yeah,
- 2:00:21Speaker 1: all that's amazing, But at a certain age it just
- 2:00:25Speaker 1: becomes irrelevant. But I certainly don't think you should buy
- 2:00:27Speaker 1: a gift for your boss. I mean, again, less expect it.
- 2:00:30Speaker 1: Maybe some bosses expect it, ask other employees. Don't do
- 2:00:35Speaker 1: it unless it's expected. Steve, Or do you have a
- 2:00:39Speaker 1: judge other than the Supreme Court who you know about
- 2:00:43Speaker 1: and would recommend reading. I'm sure there's someone who thinks differently. Yeah,
- 2:00:50Speaker 1: I just don't remember names. I mean, there's a Supreme
- 2:00:52Speaker 1: Court judge in the state of Arizona, Arizona Supreme Court
- 2:00:55Speaker 1: judge who used to be at the Institute for just
- 2:01:00Speaker 1: this and then was at the Goldwater Institute and then
- 2:01:02Speaker 1: became a Supreme Court judge in the state of Arizona,
- 2:01:05Speaker 1: who is influenced by objectivism and is a really interesting guy.
- 2:01:11Speaker 1: I haven't read his opinions, but they strike me as
- 2:01:15Speaker 1: as they would be good. There's some judges in the
- 2:01:22Speaker 1: Court of Appeals that has Texas as part of it
- 2:01:25Speaker 1: that are good at economic issues, property right issues, terrible
- 2:01:28Speaker 1: on social issues, good at economic issues. But no, I
- 2:01:31Speaker 1: don't really follow individual judges. Real Spock is Russia Ukraine
- 2:01:37Speaker 1: invasions similar to you rock quait, Yes, except that you
- 2:01:42Speaker 1: rock quait. I wuk took over Quit in a day
- 2:01:45Speaker 1: or something. There was no real fighting and just held it.
- 2:01:49Speaker 1: And it's much smaller and it didn't resist, and it
- 2:01:54Speaker 1: was on explicity for the oil. But in a sense
- 2:01:58Speaker 1: it's the same kind of territorial expansion and aggression. Yep.
- 2:02:03Speaker 1: And oh here's another difference. Quait was you know, a
- 2:02:11Speaker 1: kingdom or shik them or whatever, an authoritarian regime. Ukraine
- 2:02:15Speaker 1: was a free country. So Russia invading Ukraine as much
- 2:02:19Speaker 1: worse because it's invading a free country. Cook says man.
- 2:02:25Speaker 1: This is both manding and demoralizing. Yep, it really really is.
- 2:02:30Speaker 1: Jamie from Canada. Mehdi Hassan says that what's happening to
- 2:02:34Speaker 1: Iranian people is terrible, but the US and Israel should
- 2:02:37Speaker 1: stay out of it. Why does he say this, shouldn't
- 2:02:40Speaker 1: they act to save lives? I don't know why he
- 2:02:42Speaker 1: says that, and I don't agree with him. I think
- 2:02:45Speaker 1: the US and Isola should do what they can to
- 2:02:46Speaker 1: help the Iranian people from the air without putting troops
- 2:02:49Speaker 1: on the ground Israel with massade agents on the ground.
- 2:02:54Speaker 1: But I don't see any reason why Iran shouldn't get
- 2:02:58Speaker 1: some external help. Marius Trump talked about suspending midterms twice. Now, yeah,
- 2:03:05Speaker 1: I know, I know we talked about they shouldn't be elections,
- 2:03:09Speaker 1: but I still think that's his talk. But who knows
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: what Trump and if they do happen, does he overturn them?
- 2:03:16Speaker 1: So do they counted out? Gabriel discovered you V Peterson Academy. Wow,
- 2:03:24Speaker 1: thought you were finance guy, but your work taught me
- 2:03:27Speaker 1: way more after congrats on MVP of the Year. More
- 2:03:32Speaker 1: classes and PA, well, I think you if you're on PA,
- 2:03:36Speaker 1: you know I've got five courses on PA, so not
- 2:03:39Speaker 1: just finance, and I've got five capitalism, Finance, Trade, corporation,
- 2:03:45Speaker 1: and money. Those five courses. You know, they haven't asked
- 2:03:51Speaker 1: me to do more courses yet. They claim they will,
- 2:03:55Speaker 1: but they haven't yet. I have nothing scheduled if you
- 2:03:59Speaker 1: you know right, I mean well, or send them attack
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: saying hey, Ran was great. Please having on some more
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: that would be fantastic. Anything to help me get on
- 2:04:07Speaker 1: would be great. But thank you Gabriel and wow, I'm
- 2:04:12Speaker 1: excited by the fact that some people have discovered me
- 2:04:15Speaker 1: Y Peterson Academy and are coming over to the show
- 2:04:17Speaker 1: and and and getting more. That's great, Marias, Why does
- 2:04:25Speaker 1: no one sue Ice Violin du posters? They are sering?
- 2:04:29Speaker 1: There are lawsuits already is one by ij there are others.
- 2:04:34Speaker 1: There will be a whole bunch of lawsuits. Just takes
- 2:04:36Speaker 1: time before they make the courts and make the news.
- 2:04:39Speaker 1: But there are lawsuits out there. Jason says, I missed
- 2:04:43Speaker 1: the start. Why do you think the EU is not
- 2:04:45Speaker 1: demanding a shared greenland enclaves for the natives? Then zero
- 2:04:49Speaker 1: tells to the EU and a lib overformed immigration policy
- 2:04:53Speaker 1: between the US and EU. I don't know. I mean,
- 2:04:57Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's even on the table. They just
- 2:04:59Speaker 1: don't Why should why should they cut a deal with
- 2:05:01Speaker 1: Trump at all? Why didn't they just say greenlands are
- 2:05:04Speaker 1: Greenland belongs to Denmark? But out I'm not sure what
- 2:05:07Speaker 1: immigration has to do with it, or any of these
- 2:05:09Speaker 1: other things have to do with it. They don't believe
- 2:05:12Speaker 1: in zero tabs, and I don't think they want reformed.
- 2:05:18Speaker 1: They don't want an open immigration system, they don't want
- 2:05:21Speaker 1: to give up. They don't want to be bullied. I
- 2:05:24Speaker 1: think it's the bottom line. I think if Trumpet approaches differently,
- 2:05:27Speaker 1: maybe you could have cut a deal. But I don't
- 2:05:29Speaker 1: think Europe wants to be bullied, and I don't think
- 2:05:31Speaker 1: they should be bullied. Jamie from Canada Appeal Courting Canada
- 2:05:36Speaker 1: calls use of Emergency Act wrong. What should Trudeau's punishment be?
- 2:05:41Speaker 1: Anything you didn't like about Trucker's protests? Was it a
- 2:05:45Speaker 1: kada poker on roads? What was your overall take? I
- 2:05:49Speaker 1: didn't like the fact that they parked in roads and
- 2:05:51Speaker 1: they honked all night and kept people awake, and they
- 2:05:54Speaker 1: shut off I think big chunks of Toronto, if I'm
- 2:05:58Speaker 1: remember right. I wasn't a support of that. I understand
- 2:06:02Speaker 1: their frustration, I understand what they were trying to do.
- 2:06:05Speaker 1: I side with what they were demanding. I'm just not
- 2:06:09Speaker 1: a big fan of that technique. I'm glad that Pe'll
- 2:06:14Speaker 1: call the pell quote said the Emergency Act was wrong.
- 2:06:19Speaker 1: I don't know. You don't really punish Trudeau. What you
- 2:06:22Speaker 1: do is you reverse all the damage that was done
- 2:06:24Speaker 1: and maybe these people there'serve penalties, that the government pay
- 2:06:29Speaker 1: a penalty to the people involved. Jamie says, asked, Alex
- 2:06:37Speaker 1: if you prefer Biden Trump said Trump due to energy policies,
- 2:06:40Speaker 1: do you agree? I mean, I don't because you know,
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: I agree Visa v Energy, but I have to take
- 2:06:46Speaker 1: a broader perspective, and from a boarder perspective, that's not enough.
- 2:06:51Speaker 1: I mean, Trump is doing so much damage to America,
- 2:06:55Speaker 1: so much damage to America's constitutional order, to the psyche
- 2:06:59Speaker 1: of America, to America standing in the world, to national security,
- 2:07:05Speaker 1: to its allies, that I don't know if energy is
- 2:07:08Speaker 1: enough to trump all that. Jeffrey Miller, I am of
- 2:07:14Speaker 1: seven thirty as of seven thirty Eastern Si'm a Patreon member.
- 2:07:17Speaker 1: Thank you, Jeffrey. I appreciate that. Thank you. Coming to
- 2:07:23Speaker 1: New York in June, I think first week in June,
- 2:07:27Speaker 1: so let's do something together. My wife and I will
- 2:07:30Speaker 1: be there, so let's plan on something. Jamie, when is
- 2:07:35Speaker 1: it too late to abord I'm pro choice, but a
- 2:07:38Speaker 1: cump of self seems awfully different from a fully formed baby.
- 2:07:42Speaker 1: There's just a week or two from both, you know,
- 2:07:45Speaker 1: it depends what you mean, too late to abord. The
- 2:07:48Speaker 1: fact is that no doctor will abort a fetus a
- 2:07:53Speaker 1: week or two before both unless there's something very wrong
- 2:07:57Speaker 1: with it or this other crazy condition that's happening. It
- 2:08:05Speaker 1: just doesn't happen, you know. So Again, ninety three percent
- 2:08:08Speaker 1: of all abortions happened in the first twenty one weeks,
- 2:08:12Speaker 1: and almost none happened in the first in the last month,
- 2:08:16Speaker 1: so it's a very rare thing, and it only happens
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: when there's something very wrong with the baby. So it's
- 2:08:23Speaker 1: okay to aboard until until birth. But it just doesn't
- 2:08:28Speaker 1: happen because doctors won't do it. It's not healthy, it's
- 2:08:31Speaker 1: not good for the mother, and it's and and they
- 2:08:33Speaker 1: don't like doing it, and there's no reason to do
- 2:08:36Speaker 1: it if the mother has carried it to that point.
- 2:08:44Speaker 1: There's zero reason rational reason to aboord at that point
- 2:08:47Speaker 1: unless unless something's wrong with it. All right, I'm gonna
- 2:08:58Speaker 1: take this from the chat because this is good. The
- 2:09:00Speaker 1: real Elvish rope says, hey, you on, would you ever
- 2:09:03Speaker 1: come to Canada and do a TX seminon objectives and capitalism. Yes,
- 2:09:07Speaker 1: I mean if you can, if you can round up
- 2:09:10Speaker 1: the money for me to come and do it, then absolutely.
- 2:09:14Speaker 1: So if we can get a group together that will
- 2:09:17Speaker 1: do it, and uh there's enough money to pay me,
- 2:09:21Speaker 1: then I will come. So I mean bottom line is,
- 2:09:25Speaker 1: if if you can do that, email me you on,
- 2:09:30Speaker 1: you on at your run brookshow dot com. You're on
- 2:09:33Speaker 1: at your run brookshow dot com. Just send me an
- 2:09:35Speaker 1: email and we'll coordinate it. But you know, there has
- 2:09:38Speaker 1: to be the the and I'll tell you how much
- 2:09:40Speaker 1: I need depending on what exactly you want. But yeah,
- 2:09:42Speaker 1: absolutely'd love to do it. Uh more, Jamie from Canada.
- 2:09:48Speaker 1: Are soft covers hard covers of your books identical? Sometimes
- 2:09:52Speaker 1: authors include extra in the latter identical, no difference between them. Jonathan,
- 2:10:00Speaker 1: should DEM's impeach Pam Bundy for violining epstock file with
- 2:10:04Speaker 1: ease law if they win the midterms forcing Senate Republicans
- 2:10:07Speaker 1: to vote on the issue. Yes, but they should also
- 2:10:09Speaker 1: impeach Trump. They should impeach. Uh you know, well, I
- 2:10:16Speaker 1: guess if they do Bondy, I don't know if they
- 2:10:19Speaker 1: can do home And you know they should impeach. Yeah, absolutely,
- 2:10:23Speaker 1: and not just depsign File. They should impeach them over Ice, oh,
- 2:10:27Speaker 1: homeland security. They shouldn't peach Nome, they should impeach Gnome
- 2:10:31Speaker 1: and Bondy and Trump. Yes. Absolutely, There's plenty of reasons
- 2:10:36Speaker 1: to do all of them. Jonathan says, seems Destiny was
- 2:10:41Speaker 1: vindicated over the allegations. There seemed to be always new
- 2:10:43Speaker 1: allegations around Destiny. I don't know, and I don't have
- 2:10:47Speaker 1: the time to look into it. G get free. Thank
- 2:10:50Speaker 1: you for the sticker I think I caught all the
- 2:10:54Speaker 1: other stickers before. Okay, last question, Je Jamie from Canada.
- 2:10:57Speaker 1: Canada has no term limits for PM. Why does you?
- 2:11:01Speaker 1: Why does US? Should they not or should Canada have
- 2:11:04Speaker 1: a limit? I think because it's very different systems. I
- 2:11:07Speaker 1: think the executive in the US has more power than
- 2:11:10Speaker 1: a PM. A PM has has checks and balances in
- 2:11:14Speaker 1: a sense within this political party and and usually there's
- 2:11:20Speaker 1: coalitions in parliamentary systems. In the US is a presidential system.
- 2:11:26Speaker 1: They basically did it because FDR won four elections and
- 2:11:30Speaker 1: everybody thought that was ridiculous and it was becoming imperial.
- 2:11:35Speaker 1: There was an understanding of only doing two because George
- 2:11:38Speaker 1: Washington left after two, but it became a constitution in
- 2:11:43Speaker 1: the Constitution after FDR one four, and that seemed to
- 2:11:47Speaker 1: be too much and too much power. It was an
- 2:11:50Speaker 1: effort to reduce the power of the president, and I
- 2:11:53Speaker 1: think it's a good idea. I think it's a good idea.
- 2:11:57Speaker 1: All right, guys, thank you. I appreciate to support. Thanks
- 2:12:00Speaker 1: for all the super chat is. I will see you
- 2:12:02Speaker 1: guys tomorrow for another news show and have a great,
- 2:12:07Speaker 1: great rest of your week. Bye, everybody.
