- 1:51Speaker 2: Let's start with Trump.
- 1:52Speaker 3: He was an Arizona talking to supporters, made some controversial statements,
- 1:56Speaker 3: per usual. He said, the Panel Canal, Panama Canal, Yes
- 2:02Speaker 3: after my brother Panama and shout out to all the
- 2:04Speaker 3: Panamanians out there.
- 2:06Speaker 2: Absolutely on Eastern Parkway.
- 2:10Speaker 3: But he said that we've been getting ripped off by
- 2:14Speaker 3: Panama for years and if they don't start to treat
- 2:19Speaker 3: us more fairly, then we should take back the Panama Canals.
- 2:23Speaker 4: No.
- 2:23Speaker 2: For historical reference, the Panama.
- 2:27Speaker 3: Canal one of the most important creations of.
- 2:37Speaker 2: The twentieth century. Early. I think it was like nineteen
- 2:41Speaker 2: twenty when it started development.
- 2:43Speaker 3: So before that, ships cargo had to go all the
- 2:49Speaker 3: way down to Argentina, like past Chile, past Argentina, right
- 2:56Speaker 3: to go to the other side of the world, right,
- 2:59Speaker 3: and obviously that causes a lot of issues, right, Yeah,
- 3:02Speaker 3: whereas with the Panama Canal, it was it was a
- 3:06Speaker 3: split that they built. They built the Panama Canal wasn't
- 3:09Speaker 3: just didn't happen overnight, Like they had to build a
- 3:12Speaker 3: waterway through Panama to actually let ships and cargo flow,
- 3:17Speaker 3: which actually connects like you know, the eastern the western
- 3:20Speaker 3: part of the Eastern hemisphere, like the Californias of the
- 3:23Speaker 3: world and.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Texas and stuff like that to the west to the east.
- 3:31Speaker 3: So billions of dollars, trillions of dollars over the cost
- 3:35Speaker 3: of time. Right, it's hard cargo and shipments, and it's
- 3:38Speaker 3: very important even to this day. So the historical part
- 3:44Speaker 3: of it is that America played a major part in
- 3:46Speaker 3: building the Panama Canal and maintained ownership for a while.
- 3:55Speaker 3: It was a it was America had full ownership of
- 3:57Speaker 3: it started to.
- 3:59Speaker 2: Cause problems.
- 4:01Speaker 3: And Panama they started to have you know, different protests
- 4:05Speaker 3: saying it was imperialism and they wasn't happy that America
- 4:08Speaker 3: owned something on their grounds obviously, right. So I think
- 4:12Speaker 3: Jimmy Carter was the present late seventies, and at that
- 4:15Speaker 3: time it was a strong push against communism, so they
- 4:18Speaker 3: looked at it like it was a you know, a
- 4:20Speaker 3: way to kind of a peace Central America in South
- 4:24Speaker 3: America and.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Agreed.
- 4:29Speaker 3: They had an agreement to have the Panamanians take over
- 4:33Speaker 3: the Panama Canal. I think in nineteen ninety nine it
- 4:36Speaker 3: was like it was reasserted and done, and Panama has
- 4:41Speaker 3: been in control of the Panama Canal for a while now.
- 4:44Speaker 3: Now how a whole history, you know, you got to
- 4:48Speaker 3: give historical context sometimes, Well I just sent to real time. Yeah,
- 4:54Speaker 3: Trump has hotel, has a hotel in Panama. Anama has
- 5:00Speaker 3: effectively tried to kick Trump out because they saying that.
- 5:05Speaker 2: He's guilty of tax evasion.
- 5:08Speaker 3: So as news broke that he was getting kicked out
- 5:13Speaker 3: of the country and his hotel was and that he's
- 5:16Speaker 3: going to be under investigation of tax evasion, miraculously he
- 5:22Speaker 3: decides to randomly start to collect we need to get
- 5:27Speaker 3: better trade deals with panamaket and if we don't we
- 5:30Speaker 3: have all legal rights.
- 5:32Speaker 2: Let's play the clip. Actually, let's play this.
- 5:33Speaker 4: Has anyone ever heard of the Panama can Because we're
- 5:38Speaker 4: being ripped off at the Panama Canal like we're being
- 5:40Speaker 4: ripped off everywhere else. The fees being charged by Panama ridiculous,
- 5:46Speaker 4: highly unfair, especially knowing the extraordinary generosity that has been
- 5:51Speaker 4: bestowed to Panama.
- 5:53Speaker 2: If the principles, both moral and legal.
- 5:56Speaker 4: Of this magnanimous gesture of giving not followed, and we
- 6:01Speaker 4: will demand that the Panama Can now be returned to
- 6:04Speaker 4: the United States of America in full, quickly and without question.
- 6:11Speaker 4: I'm not going to stand for it.
- 6:13Speaker 3: So in that clip, he's saying that we have the
- 6:15Speaker 3: legal authority to take back the Panama Canal. So okay,
- 6:21Speaker 3: that's a whole history lesson how we got up to
- 6:24Speaker 3: date and all of this stuff.
- 6:25Speaker 2: What's your thoughts on this?
- 6:28Speaker 5: Just because you should does not or just because you
- 6:30Speaker 5: could does not mean you should. I think we have
- 6:33Speaker 5: a bunch of issues we need to fix. But what
- 6:36Speaker 5: an amazing coincidence is you illustrated that he's going to
- 6:40Speaker 5: get kicked out and all of a sudden he wants
- 6:41Speaker 5: to wage war take away this is an actor for
- 6:46Speaker 5: all of a sudden.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Listen.
- 6:51Speaker 5: Vice President Musk hasn't said it.
- 6:53Speaker 2: I don't believe it.
- 6:54Speaker 5: So when when Elon said We're gonna take Panama, then
- 6:57Speaker 5: I'll believe it. But until then, Trump, this is not
- 7:00Speaker 5: a great idea. You could have waited, the timing could
- 7:03Speaker 5: have been better, but no. And I think we've made
- 7:06Speaker 5: too many enemies and we're not strong enough as a
- 7:08Speaker 5: country to keep acting as the way we did in
- 7:11Speaker 5: the fifties, sixties and seventies. I don't think that shit
- 7:14Speaker 5: is gonna fly now. But what do you think.
- 7:17Speaker 3: It reeks of imperialism, It reeks of entitlement. It reaks
- 7:21Speaker 3: so you know all of the things that we talk about.
- 7:24Speaker 3: And you know Trump, I mean he took it a
- 7:29Speaker 3: step farther by putting a post on Instagram on his
- 7:31Speaker 3: official Instagram page. Did you see that that did with
- 7:35Speaker 3: the Panama Canal with a flag in the waters, Like
- 7:38Speaker 3: it's like an artificial intelligence picture and it says the
- 7:45Speaker 3: American Canal something like that, like the American Canal. And man,
- 7:51Speaker 3: it's just a really ignorant way to rule. And like
- 7:53Speaker 3: I said, I don't have anything personally against Trump. I
- 7:55Speaker 3: think that. You know, a lot of stuff that he
- 7:57Speaker 3: does I agree with, but you know, to haveersonal vendettas
- 8:00Speaker 3: on countries.
- 8:01Speaker 5: Specifically before they clipped it up. Let's not give them
- 8:04Speaker 5: fodder for the holidays.
- 8:06Speaker 2: What specifically, what do I agree with Trump?
- 8:08Speaker 3: Yes, I mean, you know, we said a bunch of
- 8:11Speaker 3: different stuff in the past, like protecting the borders, him
- 8:15Speaker 3: being harder on China him. Yeah, you know, there's different things,
- 8:20Speaker 3: like you know, it's it's like it's there's certain things
- 8:22Speaker 3: that I agree with, but you know, it's it's just
- 8:26Speaker 3: a real ignorant way to to to go about diplomacy,
- 8:29Speaker 3: Like you're supposed to be a diplomat before anything. The
- 8:31Speaker 3: PRESI of the United States is supposed to be a
- 8:33Speaker 3: diplomat and we know he.
- 8:35Speaker 5: Was never that though. That's why I made that. I'm like,
- 8:37Speaker 5: he's not in Cameron origins. He ain't a dipset Burgh gang,
- 8:42Speaker 5: none of that. Trump's a different animal. Y.
- 8:44Speaker 2: No, that's a fact.
- 8:45Speaker 3: But it's just a really ignorant way to carry yourself
- 8:48Speaker 3: as a world leader. And it's over a personal gripe,
- 8:53Speaker 3: that's what it's just. It's nothing about us getting unfited
- 8:57Speaker 3: trade deals because If that was the case, why don't
- 8:58Speaker 3: you say this four years when you say this on
- 9:01Speaker 3: the campaign trail. Why all of a sudden you get
- 9:04Speaker 3: you're getting charge for tax evasion in Panama. You feel
- 9:06Speaker 3: like you're being unfairly targeted personally, so you're gonna take
- 9:10Speaker 3: it out on the country. This is the habit that
- 9:12Speaker 3: he's done over and over and over again, right where
- 9:15Speaker 3: it's like, if people have personal attacks on him, then
- 9:18Speaker 3: he uses his political power to go against his allies.
- 9:22Speaker 3: That's what happens in dictive and dictatorships. Yeah, that's what
- 9:25Speaker 3: happens in dictatorship. That that's what the dictator does.
- 9:28Speaker 5: Yeah, So of that, like to not even be in office.
- 9:34Speaker 5: I think it's a mistake that maybe a few presidents
- 9:37Speaker 5: have made. But the first maybe ten or fifteen issues
- 9:40Speaker 5: that you talk about publicly need to benefit the people first.
- 9:43Speaker 5: The most Americans don't even know what Panama is, let
- 9:47Speaker 5: alone give a fuck if this canal gets that, Like,
- 9:50Speaker 5: you're focusing on the wrong thing. And while America does
- 9:54Speaker 5: need a change, if he does not keep focused, this
- 9:58Speaker 5: is not going to end well for him.
- 10:01Speaker 3: And our policies in Central and South America has been
- 10:07Speaker 3: strictly economic imperialism from the beginning and read the book
- 10:14Speaker 3: The Economic Hitman Confessions of the Economic Hitmen. Watch the
- 10:17Speaker 3: documentary on YouTube. It so like, watch the documentary if
- 10:21Speaker 3: you don't want to read the book, but it pretty
- 10:22Speaker 3: much in a nutshell, talks about mainly Africa in Central
- 10:27Speaker 3: and South America, but a lot of the countries in
- 10:28Speaker 3: Central and South America where the economic policy for America.
- 10:32Speaker 2: This goes back since the nineteen fifties CIA. This is
- 10:36Speaker 2: not a conspiracy. This is a fact.
- 10:37Speaker 3: Economic policy is to go into countries and to corrupt
- 10:42Speaker 3: the leadership and to extract natural resources for cheap and
- 10:47Speaker 3: keep the leadership wealthy while the vast majority of people starve.
- 10:51Speaker 3: If said president does not accept bribery, then the next
- 10:58Speaker 3: option is to kill a person. And when they're dead,
- 11:01Speaker 3: then the next person that's taking issues is going to
- 11:04Speaker 3: accept the rivalry because they've seen what happened. And this
- 11:10Speaker 3: is just it's bad karma that karma. Karma has no
- 11:15Speaker 3: expiration date. No, And that's the thing that people really
- 11:19Speaker 3: need to understand, Like karma has no expiration date at all.
- 11:22Speaker 3: And man, it's just it's just like you just go
- 11:27Speaker 3: back and it's just like even like Saudi Arabia they
- 11:31Speaker 3: had a king years ago and he was you know,
- 11:37Speaker 3: they they had the oil embargo, and I remember they
- 11:40Speaker 3: were saying that. You know, he told America, like, look
- 11:44Speaker 3: we can they said, America said, if you don't lift
- 11:47Speaker 3: this oil and bargo, we're gonna bomb your oil Fiells
- 11:50Speaker 3: And he said, well, our ancestors lived off milk and dates,
- 11:54Speaker 3: so we can go back to that. And shortly later
- 11:58Speaker 3: he was shot in his face by his nephew, who
- 12:01Speaker 3: surprisingly for some reason, had just visited the US the
- 12:05Speaker 3: week before. Coincidence.
- 12:08Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know, fels beautiful that time day.
- 12:14Speaker 3: So it's like, like, man, it's just like America's foreign
- 12:18Speaker 3: policy has just been such a it's been bullied, it's
- 12:21Speaker 3: been a bully boy. And the crazy thing about it
- 12:22Speaker 3: is that most American citizens have no idea about this stuff, right,
- 12:27Speaker 3: and we're so naive and we just have such a
- 12:30Speaker 3: viewpoint of like that everything that is happening is in
- 12:33Speaker 3: the benefit of America, and da da da America is
- 12:36Speaker 3: just upstanding country. But you got to be honest with yourself,
- 12:39Speaker 3: and you gotta do the research, and you got to
- 12:40Speaker 3: understand the exploitation that we've done all over the world.
- 12:43Speaker 3: So whenever you start to talk about taking land from people,
- 12:47Speaker 3: right like, that's a that's a mindset, that's a colonizing
- 12:53Speaker 3: European Western mindset, right that after a while, people's not
- 12:58Speaker 3: going for that anymore. Like you can only be a bully.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Bullies are only going to be a bully for so
- 13:02Speaker 3: long until he gets punched in his face, and then
- 13:04Speaker 3: he's not Then he's not a bully anymore.
- 13:06Speaker 5: Who can punch America in the face.
- 13:08Speaker 3: China China, And that's what China is doing because China
- 13:12Speaker 3: is taking a different route.
- 13:13Speaker 2: China is friendly in parallysm Yes.
- 13:17Speaker 3: They're not saying they're not saying like, okay, we're taking
- 13:22Speaker 3: your railroad system. They'll say, okay, we're gonna we're gonna
- 13:25Speaker 3: loan you fifty.
- 13:26Speaker 6: Billion hours, let's invest into your infrastructure. Yep, we're gonna
- 13:31Speaker 6: give you terms. This is another form of economic hitman.
- 13:33Speaker 6: By the way, we're gonna give you terms that you're
- 13:35Speaker 6: you're not gonna end up paying You're yes, you're going
- 13:38Speaker 6: you're going to the fault on your loan and as
- 13:40Speaker 6: a result, and we'll own it.
- 13:42Speaker 2: But at least they're doing it the legal way.
- 13:45Speaker 3: Yeah, predatory for sure, but at least they're not saying
- 13:51Speaker 3: they're not coming with guns and just saying this is
- 13:53Speaker 3: our military, we're stronger than you, and we're gonna take
- 13:55Speaker 3: over your It's nothing you can do about it.
- 13:57Speaker 5: Which one is worse the get down and lay down
- 14:00Speaker 5: or act like I'm your friend that loans you the
- 14:01Speaker 5: money where I know you can't pay it back, Like
- 14:03Speaker 5: the Chinese company has all the parking garages and parking
- 14:08Speaker 5: meters in Chicago. Nobody batter than I. I like exactly.
- 14:15Speaker 3: I think that's better because you're still making a cottage
- 14:18Speaker 3: decision to do business with China.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Then I force you, you know what I mean, Like
- 14:22Speaker 2: they're not forcing you.
- 14:28Speaker 5: Economic extortion is very fascinating.
- 14:30Speaker 3: But this whole ship was fucked up since the World
- 14:33Speaker 3: the World Bank because they really put.
- 14:39Speaker 5: Jingle bell?
- 14:41Speaker 2: What the whole okay on the World Bank? To be
- 14:47Speaker 2: continued to, Yeah, hold on okay.
- 14:52Speaker 7: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child
- 14:56Speaker 7: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from El salva
- 15:00Speaker 7: Or accused of murdering a Texas. Man of Venezuelan charged
- 15:04Speaker 7: with filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are
- 15:08Speaker 7: just some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of
- 15:12Speaker 7: President Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United
- 15:15Speaker 7: States Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal
- 15:20Speaker 7: border crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and

- 15:42Speaker 7: return legally. Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump,
