[00:30.000 --> 00:39.400]  of deceit. Telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show.
[00:44.520 --> 00:51.280]  As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday the 4th of March, here are Lord 2026.
[00:51.280 --> 00:56.340]  Well we're going to take a look today at the obsession of government at every
[00:56.340 --> 01:02.340]  level to regulate and turn into a privilege or a crime. Things that we do
[01:02.340 --> 01:07.340]  on an ordinary basis and this is coming out of California. I know there's not a
[01:07.340 --> 01:10.740]  lot of Republicans in California, this is mostly a Democrat thing, but this went
[01:10.740 --> 01:15.900]  through both houses of the legislature unanimously. No one, not even a
[01:15.900 --> 01:22.500]  Republican anywhere, voted against this and it shows us yet again how they're
[01:22.500 --> 01:26.980]  weaponizing just even ordinary computers, let alone artificial intelligence.
[01:26.980 --> 01:34.500]  There's a huge blowback now against open AI and Sam Altman because they will
[01:34.500 --> 01:38.620]  cross those red lines. They will do mass surveillance for the Pentagon. They will
[01:38.620 --> 01:44.260]  use autonomous killer robots, use their software for that and people are pushing
[01:44.260 --> 01:49.220]  back against that. We're going to take a look at the lies of war. You know the
[01:49.220 --> 01:54.460]  first casualty of truth, the first casualty of war is truth and we have an
[01:54.460 --> 01:59.860]  abundance of lies that are being fed out by both sides. We'll be right back. Stay
[01:59.860 --> 02:02.220]  with us.
[02:08.940 --> 02:15.380]  Well let's begin with the hubris, the boasting and the lies about war and let's
[02:15.540 --> 02:21.060]  start with Trump. Trump is saying the US has virtually unlimited supply of
[02:21.060 --> 02:27.260]  stockpiles of weapons. He's talking about these anti-missile things. Folks if you
[02:27.260 --> 02:33.100]  remember a few days before this all happened I was telling you what the
[02:33.100 --> 02:38.860]  chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said, General Dan Cain and it was put out by
[02:38.860 --> 02:43.300]  JD Vance, put out also by Marco Rubio, both of them trying to either straddle
[02:43.300 --> 02:46.420]  the fence or pull back a little bit from some of the stuff because the
[02:46.420 --> 02:51.300]  political baggage that is going to haunt them and may be a career ender for them
[02:51.300 --> 02:56.180]  as well. And what he was saying was that Dan Cain was very clear about the fact
[02:56.180 --> 03:01.220]  that we were low on ammo and allies. He said we have used so many of these
[03:01.220 --> 03:07.140]  missiles for Israel and for Ukraine. You know we don't have that many for
[03:07.140 --> 03:11.460]  ourselves and it's going to be a real issue for this operation because we
[03:11.460 --> 03:15.780]  don't have that many. So then Trump comes out and says just the opposite
[03:15.780 --> 03:22.380]  because he has no trouble lying to your face. No matter how absurd the lie Trump
[03:22.380 --> 03:27.500]  and his regime like people like War Pete they are perfectly up to the task of
[03:27.500 --> 03:32.100]  looking you right in the eye and telling you an absurd lie that everybody knows
[03:32.100 --> 03:38.100]  is not true. So Trump said yesterday that the US has virtually unlimited supply of
[03:38.340 --> 03:44.900]  weapons. Let's talk about that. The production rate they've said of the
[03:44.900 --> 03:49.740]  Iranian government in terms of these missiles is about 100 a day a month,
[03:49.740 --> 03:56.980]  about a hundred a month. The production rate of the anti-missiles is about three
[03:56.980 --> 04:03.740]  per month. That would be a pretty big problem right away if it was a one-to-one
[04:03.900 --> 04:08.620]  correspondence but it's not. As I said many times as well when you look at
[04:08.620 --> 04:14.100]  these anti-missile defense systems it's very different than the usual defender
[04:14.100 --> 04:18.260]  attacker ratio. Usually the advantage is with the defender and you need to have
[04:18.260 --> 04:23.240]  superior forces and numbers as the attacker. It's the other way around when
[04:23.240 --> 04:27.380]  you are trying to shoot down these missiles. It generally takes two to three
[04:27.380 --> 04:34.420]  of these anti-missile missiles to take down one of the missiles. So they would
[04:34.420 --> 04:38.940]  need to have production of two or three hundred of these things a month. Instead
[04:38.940 --> 04:47.700]  they've got six to seven. They're about anywhere from 33 to 43 times less than
[04:47.700 --> 04:52.420]  what they actually need. They have to up their production 33 to 43 times but
[04:52.420 --> 04:57.980]  that doesn't stop Trump from looking at you and looking right at the camera and
[04:57.980 --> 05:04.900]  lying to your face just like we had the guy that did the PCR test,
[05:04.900 --> 05:10.100]  Kary Muller said about Anthony Fauci. He said, I think I'll look you right in the eye
[05:10.100 --> 05:14.300]  in the camera and he'll lie straight to the camera. Well so will Trump. I wonder
[05:14.300 --> 05:20.420]  why they ever wound up partnering you think? Anyway he says, our medium and
[05:20.420 --> 05:24.380]  upper-medium grade have never been higher or better. He said we have a
[05:24.380 --> 05:28.900]  virtually unlimited supply of these weapons. Our wars can be fought forever.
[05:28.900 --> 05:37.900]  Didn't he just tell us this wasn't going to be a forever war? Again the taco thing.
[05:37.900 --> 05:45.180]  Trump is always changing orders. I say not chickening out but he's always
[05:45.180 --> 05:52.700]  changing orders. He's also always capricious and odious in what he says.
[05:52.700 --> 05:57.580]  That's what I think taco stands for. And so Trump is bragging about the
[05:57.580 --> 06:01.420]  virtually unlimited supply of these weapons and by the way it's actually
[06:01.420 --> 06:07.740]  even worse perhaps than what we think in terms of the missiles that are being
[06:07.740 --> 06:14.020]  produced. It's hard to tell when you look at these videos of things out there and
[06:14.020 --> 06:18.100]  I haven't shown very many of these and and you can kind of take most of them
[06:18.100 --> 06:23.580]  with a grain of salt. However I've noticed that people are going in and you
[06:23.580 --> 06:27.300]  can see in the comments some people will debunk it and say well that's an old
[06:27.300 --> 06:32.300]  picture. That was some place in Turkey that got bombed five years ago or
[06:32.300 --> 06:35.460]  something like that. Somebody has put that up and said this is Jerusalem today.
[06:35.460 --> 06:40.220]  And so you got some debugging that's going on with people and you have some
[06:40.220 --> 06:44.620]  people are asking hey Grok is this for real? And people are making fun of that
[06:44.620 --> 06:50.660]  but actually Grok is pretty sharp in terms of being able to see some kind of
[06:50.660 --> 06:55.460]  a watermark that's there or identifying some of the hallmarks of artificial
[06:55.460 --> 06:58.980]  intelligence. I gotta say it's a lot better at spotting that stuff than I am.
[06:58.980 --> 07:03.300]  I hate to say that we want to turn over some decisions like that to it. So I
[07:03.300 --> 07:08.380]  just haven't used that stuff too much. But this purports to be an attack on
[07:08.380 --> 07:14.380]  Jerusalem that was widely published on X and I didn't see anybody making a case
[07:14.380 --> 07:17.180]  that this wasn't real. I saw a lot of people making the case that it was real.
[07:17.180 --> 07:22.460]  Grok made the case that it was real as well. Massive amount of missiles coming
[07:22.460 --> 07:26.700]  in and the comments were that there appears to be some kind of Iranian
[07:26.700 --> 07:33.380]  missile that has 80 submissile clusters in it. Some kind of a subcluster right?
[07:33.380 --> 07:40.660]  And so we multiply that out by 80. That disadvantage that we have in terms of
[07:40.660 --> 07:46.100]  numerics that are there. Wars can be fought forever said Trump and we've
[07:46.100 --> 07:50.060]  noticed. As a matter of fact he campaigned and promised that he wouldn't do that.
[07:50.060 --> 07:55.740]  Now he's boasting that he can do that. And we're better than other countries. We
[07:55.740 --> 08:01.020]  have the finest arms. We have a good supply at the higher end but it's not
[08:01.020 --> 08:05.140]  where we want to be. And so then he blamed Biden for the stockpile not being
[08:05.140 --> 08:08.620]  where it should be. He said, Sleepy Joe spent all this time and all of our
[08:08.620 --> 08:15.700]  country's money giving everything to PT Barnum, Zelensky of Ukraine. And while
[08:15.700 --> 08:20.460]  he gave so much of the super high-end stuff away for free, he didn't bother to
[08:20.460 --> 08:26.100]  replace it, he said. So the US is stocked and we're ready to win big was his
[08:26.100 --> 08:31.940]  conclusion. So we can't be defeated. But by the way if we are it'll be Biden's
[08:31.940 --> 08:36.380]  fault you know that right? And you know he does deserve the blame for a lot of
[08:36.380 --> 08:42.380]  this stuff. Well Joe McGregor had this to say. China and Russia are sitting on the
[08:42.380 --> 08:45.780]  sidelines monitoring everything. They're in close touch with the government.
[08:45.780 --> 08:49.420]  They're providing satellite intelligence which accounts for some of the
[08:49.420 --> 08:53.660]  tremendous successes, particularly in Israel and our US bases. All of our
[08:53.660 --> 08:58.380]  bases have been destroyed. Our harbor installations are destroyed. We're
[08:58.380 --> 09:02.980]  actually having to fall back on India and Indian ports which are less than
[09:02.980 --> 09:10.540]  ideal. That's what the Navy says. And I just I think Iran much to our
[09:10.540 --> 09:16.260]  disappointment is faring very very well. Well and the other part of this is the
[09:16.260 --> 09:19.860]  genius plan that was introduced yesterday by Trump. The United States
[09:19.860 --> 09:25.780]  government, that means you and I, are going to ensure all the oil tankers so
[09:25.780 --> 09:31.300]  they'll go through the Strait of Hormuz. How's that gonna work out? I mean they're
[09:31.300 --> 09:35.460]  burning all over the place. It's a it's amazing and ships are afraid to go in
[09:35.460 --> 09:39.740]  there. So we're gonna tell them we'll escort you or we'll insure you and all
[09:39.740 --> 09:45.500]  this stuff. To me I look at I'm not a naval expert by far but it seems to me
[09:45.500 --> 09:51.500]  like that increases the vulnerability for the naval ships that are doing the
[09:51.500 --> 09:58.700]  guarding as well. It puts them in a very difficult position because I don't know
[09:58.700 --> 10:04.420]  relative to the size of ships and they have how a large the Strait of Hormuz is
[10:04.420 --> 10:09.700]  but they call it a strait because it's kind of narrow especially considering
[10:09.700 --> 10:12.860]  where they're usually are able to maneuver. So it puts you between a rock
[10:12.860 --> 10:18.380]  and a hard place not between Iraq and Iran and so if you're there having to
[10:18.380 --> 10:22.580]  maneuver in this small area and trying to guard these ships that puts our
[10:22.580 --> 10:30.060]  naval ships at risk as well but also puts all of us at risk financially. And
[10:30.060 --> 10:33.300]  so a lot of people are looking at some of these missiles that are coming into
[10:33.300 --> 10:37.620]  Jerusalem and saying where did this stuff come from? Was this Iranian or was
[10:37.620 --> 10:44.180]  this given by Russia and China? Well Trump has vowed in spite of all this the
[10:44.180 --> 10:49.500]  big one is coming we're getting ready to unleash something really really big. So
[10:49.500 --> 10:53.420]  the big wave he said hasn't even happened. The big one is coming soon and
[10:53.420 --> 10:57.700]  Marco Rubio is echoing that as well I guess trying to get back into Trump's
[10:57.700 --> 11:03.820]  good graces after the devastating candor of what he had to say the other day in
[11:03.820 --> 11:07.500]  terms of well we decide we go ahead and do it because Israel was gonna do it
[11:07.500 --> 11:12.340]  so we have to follow them whatever they're doing so they dictate the
[11:12.340 --> 11:18.980]  timing. Look folks let me just say this yes the Trump administration deserves
[11:18.980 --> 11:25.100]  criticism for being followers of Israel and not doing things in our interest
[11:25.100 --> 11:30.260]  absolutely they deserve criticism but look this is they were pushed into this
[11:30.260 --> 11:35.940]  and we know that that they are getting a lot of money from Israel and they're
[11:35.940 --> 11:41.220]  owned by Israel as Trump has said right he said you used to own Congress and
[11:41.220 --> 11:45.060]  rightfully so but they're not doing what you want to do send me I'll do
[11:45.060 --> 11:49.140]  everything that you want to do so we know where this is going however we also
[11:49.140 --> 11:53.220]  know that the US government is responsible for some decisions isn't it
[11:53.220 --> 11:59.860]  let's not let Trump off the hook he wanted this war I mean he's done these
[11:59.860 --> 12:03.420]  things he's done him for Israel he's done him because he wants to but he's
[12:03.420 --> 12:08.620]  responsible for his own actions and so is Marco Rubio they can't push this off
[12:08.620 --> 12:13.060]  in another country it's despicable that they are letting another country dictate
[12:13.060 --> 12:17.260]  to them what to do but it is their decision they need to own it and we have
[12:17.260 --> 12:22.100]  seen already that they are pirates terrorists starting unjust wars in other
[12:22.100 --> 12:27.340]  words wars where we are the aggressor and then conducting them in a way that
[12:27.340 --> 12:32.820]  is criminal even if it was a legitimate conflict executing people who are
[12:32.820 --> 12:38.540]  shipwrecked I'm disgusted with this terrorist government of Washington they
[12:38.540 --> 12:43.620]  literally are terrorists and so now you're saying the big one is coming and
[12:43.620 --> 12:51.020]  we're gonna be doing even more I've got a pop Tosis 22 says David was wondering
[12:51.020 --> 12:55.020]  with the false flag was well they're keeping that in reserve to goad a boots
[12:55.020 --> 12:59.540]  on the ground move I fear yeah you're probably right it's going to be some
[12:59.540 --> 13:04.220]  kind of a morale builder or something that they use for escalation because
[13:04.220 --> 13:11.300]  already there is a lot of pushback the American public was not on board with
[13:11.300 --> 13:15.300]  this war did not want to see this war and already there's a political price to
[13:15.300 --> 13:20.020]  pay for this and so they're going to like I said I should have thought about
[13:20.020 --> 13:24.060]  the fact that Trump always does whatever he wants and then faces the
[13:24.060 --> 13:27.940]  consequences later he doesn't think about whether or not it's a wise move he
[13:27.940 --> 13:31.060]  doesn't certainly doesn't think about whether or not it's legal or
[13:31.060 --> 13:34.900]  constitutional he just does it and then he deals with lawsuits and the fights
[13:34.900 --> 13:40.180]  after the fact so yeah I believe that it will be coming so he says we'll do this
[13:40.180 --> 13:43.340]  as long as it takes to advance those objectives and we will achieve those
[13:43.340 --> 13:48.460]  objectives the world will be a safer place when we're done with this
[13:48.460 --> 13:54.660]  operation that folks is the ultimate lie all of his actions even the kidnapping
[13:54.660 --> 14:00.180]  of Maduro immediately raised the threshold of uncertainty in people's
[14:00.180 --> 14:06.020]  now okay well Trump has done this so now we can do it as well the Russian
[14:06.020 --> 14:12.740]  politicians said well he has untied our hands these types of things matter
[14:12.740 --> 14:18.180]  precedent Trump and he's setting precedents internationally not just bad
[14:18.180 --> 14:22.780]  precedents in our country as well Wally Roller says everyone in the
[14:22.780 --> 14:26.320]  government is owned by Israel well that's absolutely true and so that's a
[14:26.320 --> 14:31.820]  big part of it they are still however responsible for their actions I've heard
[14:31.820 --> 14:39.820]  people let Trump off the hook so many times because I said well and coven he
[14:39.820 --> 14:43.900]  was just getting bad advice from people I was like bad advice from people who
[14:43.900 --> 14:47.780]  work for him bad advice from people that he put in that position or whatever he's
[14:47.820 --> 14:54.180]  still responsible for it just like Harry Truman said the buck stops here and it
[14:54.180 --> 14:59.380]  does don't let them off the hook either it's bad enough that they're owned but
[14:59.380 --> 15:04.900]  they have betrayed the Constitution and Americans as well on the Iran war they
[15:04.900 --> 15:08.340]  think you are stupid this is an article from the American
[15:08.340 --> 15:12.980]  conservative and they're absolutely right Trump thinks Americans are stupid
[15:12.980 --> 15:17.540]  yeah and especially Republicans I mean he said that he said if I ever run for
[15:17.540 --> 15:21.260]  president I'll run as a Republican because they're stupid they'll vote for
[15:21.260 --> 15:26.580]  me and I talked about and that's what this article here is talking about kind
[15:26.580 --> 15:34.740]  of looking at his case for the war with Iran and he makes a case for the war
[15:34.740 --> 15:40.160]  with Ron saying yeah for 47 years have been chanting death to America and they
[15:40.160 --> 15:45.980]  have been angry with us well maybe that has something to do with the fact that
[15:45.980 --> 15:52.140]  not 47 years ago but 73 years ago we went to war with them think about the
[15:52.140 --> 15:57.700]  fact that for all these regime changes that we have done one of the first and
[15:57.700 --> 16:03.300]  one of the biggest that we did was Iran in 1953 shortly after World War two we
[16:03.300 --> 16:09.180]  did that regime change and we have been reaping the rotten fruit from that for
[16:09.180 --> 16:15.420]  the longest time we put in this totalitarian guy they called himself the
[16:15.420 --> 16:22.020]  Shah which is Persian for King put him in gate equipped and trained his secret
[16:22.020 --> 16:28.460]  police the CIA and massage did they equipped and trained the Savak said he
[16:28.460 --> 16:35.580]  could oppress his own people and so it was a night that was 73 years ago 1953
[16:36.460 --> 16:43.500]  and they put up with that for about 36 years pretty amazing before it really
[16:43.500 --> 16:48.980]  blew up and blew back on us that is a classic case a blowback it is a classic
[16:48.980 --> 16:53.940]  case of regime change failure it's one of the very first ones we did and all
[16:53.940 --> 16:59.660]  of them are failures Trump's many reasons amounted to really no reason at
[16:59.660 --> 17:06.060]  all as an intellectually no he said any intellectually honest observer was left
[17:06.060 --> 17:08.980]  fairly clueless as to what he was talking about
[17:08.980 --> 17:13.820]  enter Congress more specifically the House Foreign Affairs Committee which
[17:13.820 --> 17:21.580]  posted on X congratulating the president on ending Iran's forever war with the
[17:21.900 --> 17:31.140]  States we've been the aggressor attacking Iran for 73 years now we did
[17:31.140 --> 17:35.620]  have that little Iran Contra affair where the Reagan administration made
[17:35.620 --> 17:41.300]  friends with the ITOL for a while so they could get dirty money that they
[17:41.300 --> 17:46.020]  could use to run their secret dirty war against the Contras they sold them spare
[17:46.020 --> 17:51.140]  equipment for the jets that we had given the totalitarian dictator of the
[17:51.140 --> 17:58.220]  Shah and you had Bill Casey Reagan's CIA campaign manager who personally went to
[17:58.220 --> 18:03.980]  Iran and got them to agree they would not release the hostages until Reagan
[18:03.980 --> 18:10.460]  took office so they would hold them even after Reagan won election so we have
[18:10.460 --> 18:18.060]  been cooperative with Iran in the past but again Trump is sending the forever
[18:18.060 --> 18:23.100]  war that is ending the forever war that Iran has waged against Americans for the
[18:23.100 --> 18:31.140]  last 47 years wrote the House Foreign Affairs Committee on social media the
[18:31.140 --> 18:37.300]  problem is very large it's not limited strictly to Trump is it so according to
[18:37.300 --> 18:40.700]  this bipartisan committee a war has been going on between Iran and the US for
[18:40.700 --> 18:44.660]  nearly half a century actually three-quarters of a century but it was
[18:44.660 --> 18:49.700]  on our side we are the aggressor Trump's actions over the weekend were merely a
[18:49.700 --> 18:57.660]  decisive and strong president finally putting an end to it and he scoffs as
[18:57.660 --> 19:01.180]  you should as well the US began this ongoing war by
[19:01.180 --> 19:06.660]  pursuing Iran regime change way back in 1953 Trump just started a war with Iran
[19:06.660 --> 19:11.140]  in which there will be life and death political consequences in which little
[19:11.140 --> 19:17.220]  thought seems to have been given this is a new regime change war of choice which
[19:17.220 --> 19:24.020]  most Americans did not want it was started by Trump and it will end only
[19:24.020 --> 19:29.580]  God knows how right well as Trump is bombing Iran we need to reckon with the
[19:29.580 --> 19:35.660]  American war machine rights free thought project and again if you want to handle
[19:35.660 --> 19:41.540]  on this just look at how unhinged Lindsey Graham is every day he wants to
[19:41.540 --> 19:43.980]  have another war
[19:51.060 --> 19:55.580]  fistfight he hasn't wanted to turn into a bombing right so I just take it with a
[19:55.580 --> 20:01.060]  grain of salt yes ma'am it was got to Cuba he wants got that he's got a long
[20:01.060 --> 20:05.420]  list of people he wants to kill it's absolutely amazing the hate that oozes
[20:05.420 --> 20:10.340]  out of this guy Lindsey Graham that's Tim Burchett congressman from Tennessee
[20:10.340 --> 20:14.580]  just waving it off yeah he doesn't see if he sees a fistfight in a parking lot
[20:14.580 --> 20:20.660]  he wants to turn it into a bombing raid it's a good but down is also not accurate
[20:20.660 --> 20:25.620]  to say that Israel is dragging the US into a war against its choosing reporting
[20:25.620 --> 20:29.180]  has shown that these two nuclear powers were in lockstep on their planning of
[20:29.180 --> 20:33.700]  this attack so in order to stop this violence we need to really contend with
[20:33.700 --> 20:39.180]  how it started and the US is hardly a victim here we can start a course by
[20:39.180 --> 20:43.540]  demanding that Congress immediately pass a war powers resolution to put an end to
[20:43.540 --> 20:48.460]  this destructive assault we can lift up the call being made by some groups to
[20:48.460 --> 20:52.940]  impeach not only Trump but every single member of his cabinet who had a hand in
[20:52.940 --> 20:56.100]  making this unjust and illegal war possible let me tell you something
[20:56.100 --> 21:03.180]  that's not gonna happen the Democrats secretly want this war as well they also
[21:03.180 --> 21:08.540]  take money from Israel but just take a look at what they why would they impeach
[21:08.540 --> 21:14.980]  Trump this guy is an albatross around the GOP they know it he's gonna pull
[21:14.980 --> 21:20.100]  them down like Jimmy Carter pulled the Democrats down it's just it's just
[21:20.100 --> 21:27.260]  obvious if they impeach him and remove him then the Republicans get to put in
[21:27.260 --> 21:32.060]  JD Vance who I don't like JD Vance I don't like his technocracy I don't like
[21:32.060 --> 21:37.020]  the control that Peter Thiel has over him but he is wiser and more moderate in
[21:37.020 --> 21:41.620]  the way that he speaks and the things that he the way he comes across is a lot
[21:41.620 --> 21:45.620]  more controlled than Donald Trump is they don't want to have that situation
[21:45.620 --> 21:51.340]  in there so they will get control of the Congress in this next election and they
[21:51.340 --> 21:55.660]  will do some kind of an impeachment thing but they won't take it all the way
[21:55.660 --> 22:00.140]  to the end because they don't want to remove Trump they want to use it for
[22:00.140 --> 22:05.940]  political capital they want to use it to win elections up and down and I don't
[22:05.940 --> 22:10.860]  want to see the Democrats winning elections up especially the state and local level but
[22:10.860 --> 22:17.020]  that's kind of where we are right now between two awful and evil choices but
[22:17.020 --> 22:22.300]  when you look at what happened with all this this is why I keep going back to
[22:22.300 --> 22:26.700]  what happened in 2020 when Trump went to war with the American people for a
[22:26.700 --> 22:32.580]  globalist agenda I mean he outed himself right there as being a diet in the wool
[22:32.580 --> 22:38.780]  world economic forum globalist in terms of his goals in terms of his actions
[22:38.780 --> 22:44.180]  there's everything he did locking us down taking our jobs getting us trying
[22:44.180 --> 22:48.420]  to move the overton window towards universal basic income every single
[22:48.420 --> 22:54.360]  aspect of what he did with that was betrayal and so I look at this and a lot
[22:54.360 --> 22:57.640]  of what a lot of people are saying it's almost like this is first time they've
[22:57.640 --> 23:05.440]  noticed it was so clear and still is especially it should be even more clear
[23:05.440 --> 23:12.360]  now if you have lost the spell that he cast over the MAGA people our elected
[23:12.360 --> 23:16.520]  officials need to publicly explain why they hemmed and hawed over a war powers
[23:16.520 --> 23:22.000]  resolution before these attacks occurred despite the obvious military buildup
[23:22.000 --> 23:28.160]  that's right I think it's only Thomas Massie who tried to get that passed and
[23:28.160 --> 23:34.080]  try to preemptively stop this preemptive attack and he couldn't get other people
[23:34.080 --> 23:39.120]  of other Republicans to sign on with him they did have this come up and they
[23:39.120 --> 23:42.960]  shut it down we must demand that every member of Congress who voted to increase
[23:42.960 --> 23:48.880]  our military budget to nearly a trillion dollars account for their choices and we
[23:48.880 --> 23:53.960]  have to push those members of personal investments in the military machine to
[23:53.960 --> 23:59.640]  the tune of tens of millions of dollars and even further they need to explain
[23:59.640 --> 24:03.680]  their conflicts of interest and why they continue to profit off of this death and
[24:03.680 --> 24:10.040]  destruction lawmakers who take money from groups like APAC that are relishing
[24:10.040 --> 24:16.880]  in this war especially and we look at the warfare of the welfare state it's
[24:16.920 --> 24:24.200]  funny to me how Republicans can get rightfully upset about welfare fraud they
[24:24.200 --> 24:29.160]  seem to not care at all about warfare fraud you know what about all these this
[24:29.160 --> 24:35.000]  massive fraud and waste that we see in military systems and procurement how
[24:35.000 --> 24:39.320]  about the trillions of dollars that went missing right before 9-eleven and then
[24:39.320 --> 24:42.560]  they flew the missile right into the window of the office that was doing the
[24:42.560 --> 24:48.320]  investigation what about that well the White House is acting like it's losing
[24:48.320 --> 24:54.200]  the Iran narrative writes media I they said 77% of Republicans approve of the
[24:54.200 --> 25:00.800]  operation and of self-identified MAGA voters are nearly 50 points more likely
[25:00.800 --> 25:08.920]  than non MAGA Republicans to trust Trump on the use of force in Iran yeah the
[25:08.960 --> 25:12.920]  doublethink is strong the force is strong with this one so why is the
[25:12.920 --> 25:17.400]  Republican why is the White House acting like it's losing the narrative because
[25:17.400 --> 25:24.160]  the polling isn't the problem but their narrative is well Rubio handed them the
[25:24.160 --> 25:30.200]  problem when he went to Congress and talked to the eight the gang of eight
[25:30.200 --> 25:37.280]  the high-ranking officials Democrat and Republican and house and in the Senate
[25:37.320 --> 25:41.840]  he said Israel was going to act so the US had to strike first to reduce
[25:41.840 --> 25:47.400]  casualties paired with his argument about Israel's missile production out
[25:47.400 --> 25:52.600]  pacing American interceptor capacity I'm sorry not Israel but Iran roughly a
[25:52.600 --> 25:56.960]  hundred ballistic missiles produced per month against six or seven interceptors
[25:56.960 --> 26:05.640]  that's what I said at the front the those numbers are coming from Rubio so if
[26:05.680 --> 26:08.920]  those are the public numbers imagine what the real numbers are like it's like
[26:08.920 --> 26:12.160]  anything else where they're talking about inflation unemployment we're
[26:12.160 --> 26:16.320]  talking about military strength always gonna lie to you about this stuff so
[26:16.320 --> 26:20.640]  again if they are making a hundred of these missiles and we need three
[26:20.640 --> 26:24.920]  interceptors two or three interceptors per missile we need two or three hundred
[26:24.920 --> 26:31.200]  of these things a month just to break even but we're producing six to seven
[26:31.200 --> 26:36.800]  not two or three hundred so the White House recognized the hazard almost
[26:36.800 --> 26:41.160]  immediately what followed wasn't routine communications it was damage control
[26:41.160 --> 26:48.560]  with a specific target Matt Walsh had made comments on on social media and
[26:48.560 --> 26:55.160]  Caroline Levitt didn't respond at the podium instead she sent the response
[26:55.160 --> 26:59.520]  directly to him on social media which is really as they point out here an
[26:59.520 --> 27:07.920]  admission of concern and of weakness so Matt Walsh had written that the
[27:07.920 --> 27:13.640]  administration's messaging was to put it mildly confused now that is very mild I
[27:13.640 --> 27:20.280]  think he replied she replied directly to him directly on social media not with a
[27:20.280 --> 27:24.520]  talking point but with an enumerated list of objectives and maximalist
[27:24.520 --> 27:30.440]  language about enemy deaths and outcomes that is not how you respond to
[27:30.440 --> 27:35.360]  a manageable complaint that's how you respond when you think a frame is about
[27:35.360 --> 27:43.220]  to set inside your own coalition and you need to stop it before it does when you
[27:43.220 --> 27:47.720]  flood the zone with quote everyone serious supports this and it is morally
[27:47.720 --> 27:53.840]  overdue when that's your response you're not communicating confidence you're
[27:53.880 --> 27:59.280]  trying to drown ambiguity before it hardens Trump himself made the anxiety
[27:59.280 --> 28:03.440]  visible on Tuesday asked whether Israel had forced his hand he didn't dismiss
[28:03.440 --> 28:10.040]  the question but he flipped it no I might have forced their hand he said this
[28:10.040 --> 28:16.400]  is if anything I forced Israel's hand what does that remind you of it reminds
[28:16.400 --> 28:21.280]  me of John Lovett when he used to do the liar on a Saturday Night Live no no
[28:21.600 --> 28:26.720]  I think I for yeah that's it that's the ticket I forced their hand I told that
[28:26.720 --> 28:32.280]  to my wife Morgan Fairchild right yeah that's it that's it that's the ticket
[28:32.280 --> 28:37.560]  it's so funny you would ask that it's just so funny you would ask that yeah
[28:37.560 --> 28:41.480]  it's a so they said that's a remarkable thing for a sitting president to say in
[28:41.480 --> 28:45.880]  the middle of an active military operation who's leading whom is a
[28:45.880 --> 28:50.440]  question that has gotten loud enough that Trump felt compelled to personally
[28:50.440 --> 28:55.360]  reverse its polarity precedents who are winning the argument don't do that and
[28:55.360 --> 29:01.320]  the reason the house the White House is nervous isn't because of Tucker Carlson
[29:01.320 --> 29:08.360]  and Megyn Kelly and Matt Walsh they are the infrastructure of the very media
[29:08.360 --> 29:14.080]  ecosystem the Trump movement built and they are now running a sustained
[29:14.080 --> 29:17.720]  counter narrative that the administration clearly believes has
[29:17.760 --> 29:26.360]  traction regardless of what any cross tab says talking about polling and so Trump
[29:26.360 --> 29:32.840]  is very upset with Tucker Carlson Megyn Kelly oh they're not MAGA I am MAGA yeah
[29:32.840 --> 29:38.240]  you're not America I am America and don't you ever forget it come after you
[29:38.240 --> 29:42.120]  with the Department of Justice the polling says that the base is holding and
[29:42.120 --> 29:47.440]  yet you know again Republican voters alone are not going to win this any any
[29:47.440 --> 29:53.160]  elections for them that's the key thing their audiences may not defect in any
[29:53.160 --> 29:58.720]  traditional sense but sustained elite criticism within a coalition can erode
[29:58.720 --> 30:03.280]  enthusiasm depressed turnout margins and shift donor energy in ways that don't
[30:03.280 --> 30:09.160]  show up in approval polls until it's too late well I just say when we look at
[30:09.160 --> 30:13.560]  this and the Democrats get a chance to impeach him I hope they at least bring
[30:13.560 --> 30:19.880]  good charges against him that was the problem with the impeachment stuff in
[30:19.880 --> 30:24.440]  2020 and so forth because the things that they were coming up with were not
[30:24.440 --> 30:32.200]  real concerns not real issues not real crimes and it was it gave him the the
[30:32.200 --> 30:38.320]  aura of a victim he's not a victim and so they need to pick the real issues and
[30:38.320 --> 30:44.200]  there is a target rich environment of things to impeach Donald Trump for and
[30:44.200 --> 30:49.920]  just this first year I've never seen anybody in my lifetime who's had such
[30:49.920 --> 30:55.840]  utter contempt for the rule of law the Constitution and basic morality as
[30:55.840 --> 31:02.080]  Donald Trump I hope they get him but I like as if you were you know they're not
[31:02.080 --> 31:06.160]  they don't want to push him out of office they don't want JD Vance in there
[31:06.160 --> 31:11.000]  and of course they have to unless there's a big change in the Senate even
[31:11.000 --> 31:18.960]  if the house were to impeach him the the Senate is not going to actually convict
[31:18.960 --> 31:25.480]  him on that he's a man without convictions we could say in every sense
[31:25.480 --> 31:31.720]  of the word love it directly replying to Walsh Trump personally flipping the I
[31:31.880 --> 31:36.960]  forced them framing those moves signal to the broader media ecosystem that this
[31:36.960 --> 31:41.400]  line of criticism has enough bite to warrant presidential attention and you
[31:41.400 --> 31:47.480]  don't send the Secretary of State Rubio back to try to do damage control if
[31:47.480 --> 31:51.920]  something's not hurting you and this is what he did here's a clip you'll hear
[31:51.920 --> 31:55.480]  him the original thing that he said and then you'll hear him going back and
[31:55.480 --> 31:59.880]  trying to do damage control and trying to walk this back
[32:11.880 --> 32:16.440]  they think you're stupid made the very wise decision he was just going to be an
[32:16.440 --> 32:20.100]  Israeli action we knew that that would precipitate an attack against American
[32:20.100 --> 32:23.680]  forces and we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they
[32:23.680 --> 32:28.120]  launched those attacks we would suffer higher casualties and perhaps even higher
[32:28.120 --> 32:31.080]  those killed and then we would all be here answering questions about why we
[32:31.080 --> 32:38.040]  knew that indeed yeah okay so you heard him try to walk that back out were you
[32:38.040 --> 32:42.960]  here I didn't say that that's absolutely false this is the thing that bothers me
[32:42.960 --> 32:46.360]  I guess maybe more than anything else about the Trump administration not only
[32:46.360 --> 32:51.200]  do they think you're stupid they're stupid they're not just dishonest liars
[32:51.200 --> 32:54.760]  they are so stupid that they don't realize that people gonna put those two
[32:54.760 --> 32:59.240]  clips next to each other just like Christine Ohm when she said yeah the
[32:59.240 --> 33:02.360]  agents were under attack they were stuck in the snow and these people trying to
[33:02.360 --> 33:06.040]  hit him with their cars just makes up the story and Trump did the same thing
[33:06.040 --> 33:10.600]  and when he was in the Oval Office and being interviewed by the New York Times
[33:10.600 --> 33:15.080]  and they questioned him about the situation there and he said this is what
[33:15.080 --> 33:19.120]  happened no that's not what happened and he goes get the tape let's show them
[33:19.160 --> 33:22.320]  I'll show them what this is he'd obviously never even bothered to look at
[33:22.320 --> 33:26.880]  the tape and when he saw the tape he didn't have anything to say he was not
[33:26.880 --> 33:30.800]  well you know and then he changed the subject to something completely different
[33:30.800 --> 33:38.000]  they just Christine Ohm Donald Trump Marco Rubio they tell you that what you
[33:38.000 --> 33:42.040]  have seen with your own eyes even if it's them talking they tell you that
[33:42.040 --> 33:47.120]  that's not what happened and so then we have Tucker Carlson who made an
[33:47.160 --> 33:52.360]  interesting statement he said that authorities in Saudi Arabia and Qatar
[33:52.360 --> 33:58.320]  had arrested Israeli Mossad agents planning bombings in those countries and
[33:58.320 --> 34:05.600]  then Qatar's foreign ministry came back and pushed back against that and so that
[34:05.600 --> 34:09.280]  didn't happen Tucker Carlson said why would the Israelis be committing
[34:09.280 --> 34:13.960]  bombings in Gulf countries which are also being attacked by Iran aren't they
[34:14.080 --> 34:19.080]  on the same side here's that clip hasn't been reported but it's a fact that last
[34:19.080 --> 34:23.520]  night in Qatar and Saudi Arabia authorities arrested Mossad agents
[34:23.520 --> 34:28.200]  planning on committing bombings in those countries why would these Israelis be
[34:28.200 --> 34:32.440]  committing bombings in two Gulf countries which are also being attacked
[34:32.440 --> 34:38.360]  by Iran aren't they on the same side no Israel wants to hurt Iran and Qatar and
[34:38.360 --> 34:43.840]  UAE and Saudi and Bahrain and Oman and Kuwait and they've succeeded and the
[34:43.840 --> 34:47.920]  third thing you would have to do if you wanted true control over the region is
[34:47.920 --> 34:52.080]  get the US out of the Middle East and this war is designed to do it because
[34:52.080 --> 34:55.960]  the Israelis know that there is no appetite whatsoever for casualties and
[34:55.960 --> 35:00.240]  that this would cause a political crisis in the United States and that it would
[35:00.240 --> 35:07.000]  most critically convince our Arab allies that the United States is a bad ally a
[35:07.000 --> 35:10.280]  Saudi Aramco facility went up last night the Iranians said they didn't do it why
[35:10.280 --> 35:13.260]  would they say they didn't do it possible Israel did it why wouldn't they
[35:13.260 --> 35:17.940]  because if you think about it scaring our other allies in the region letting
[35:17.940 --> 35:21.740]  them know that they can get attacked and the US will not defend you you put up
[35:21.740 --> 35:24.620]  with all this crap for decades because you've got American troops on your soil
[35:24.620 --> 35:27.420]  and your population doesn't like it but you do it anyway because you've been
[35:27.420 --> 35:30.660]  told if there was ever a problem the US will come rescue you well guess what we
[35:30.660 --> 35:35.260]  just learned the US is not coming to rescue you guess what maybe you just
[35:35.260 --> 35:39.780]  learned Tucker Carlson is controlled opposition and he cannot be trusted folks
[35:39.780 --> 35:45.780]  he cannot be trusted I've watched this guy work for the CIA and the government
[35:45.780 --> 35:50.620]  to tamp down any obvious video I mean talk about somebody being stupid that
[35:50.620 --> 35:55.940]  they they know there's video stuff he wouldn't let architects and engineers
[35:55.940 --> 35:59.260]  show the video of the building collapsing so they could talk about he's
[35:59.260 --> 36:02.260]  I'm not showing that video I'm not showing that video and it would say
[36:02.260 --> 36:05.660]  things like you know why these crazy conspiracy theorists always want to
[36:05.820 --> 36:10.220]  about the melting point of steel and the temperature of airplane fuel and all
[36:10.220 --> 36:12.660]  these other things well because they matter and you should know they matter
[36:12.660 --> 36:20.020]  you're not stupid Tucker is not stupid he is dishonest he has said things like
[36:20.020 --> 36:23.380]  well you can't talk about building 70 can't ask questions like that or you get
[36:23.380 --> 36:28.020]  fired that's probably the most honest thing the guy has ever said and he told
[36:28.020 --> 36:31.060]  you right there that he was lying for the man he was lying for the
[36:32.060 --> 36:40.340]  for the CIA and so when you look at COVID same situation he was more than
[36:40.340 --> 36:45.740]  happy to take the big checks from Fox News and deceive people he might do an
[36:45.740 --> 36:49.860]  occasional eye roll as to what they're saying about something but he wasn't
[36:49.860 --> 36:55.880]  going to attack it head-on he wasn't going to tell you the truth be careful
[36:55.880 --> 37:00.340]  with Tucker I agree with him on a lot of different issues I disagree with them on
[37:00.340 --> 37:06.580]  some issues but do not trust him at all he's got some interesting guests
[37:06.580 --> 37:12.620]  because he's got a big name show but do not trust this guy so some people point
[37:12.620 --> 37:17.580]  out and cutter it's a crime to publish fake news like Tucker Carlson just did
[37:17.580 --> 37:22.260]  you can land a person a five-year prison sentence or a fine that amounts to about
[37:22.260 --> 37:26.980]  $28,000 because that would mean nothing to Tucker Carlson it'll be interesting
[37:26.980 --> 37:32.380]  to see what cutter does given that Tucker just bought a home there
[37:32.380 --> 37:37.420]  maybe that comes to get home huh Tucker is too much of a coward to directly blame
[37:37.420 --> 37:43.120]  Trump for getting America involved in war in Iran so he fabricated a story so
[37:43.120 --> 37:47.020]  insane that it triggered a minor diplomatic incident in which cutter had
[37:47.020 --> 37:54.820]  to come forward and say yeah that's not true keep that in mind and then we've
[37:54.820 --> 38:01.900]  got Pentagon Pete or Pete as I call him who these casualties we're now learning
[38:01.900 --> 38:09.420]  were from one particular strike we've had six US service members confirmed dead
[38:09.420 --> 38:14.500]  many people seriously injured and it wasn't multiple things that happened it
[38:14.500 --> 38:19.420]  was one particular incident the six service members confirmed dead were
[38:20.020 --> 38:27.860]  inside a triple wide trailer that Pete Hegseth described as quote fortified the
[38:27.860 --> 38:33.460]  trailer which served as a makeshift operations center took a direct hit amid
[38:33.460 --> 38:38.260]  Iran's retaliatory strikes and Kuwait just after 9 a.m. local time Sunday
[38:38.260 --> 38:43.540]  Central Command said 18 troops have also been seriously wounded while others are
[38:43.540 --> 38:48.940]  suffering minor shrapnel wounds and concussions yeah an unfortified a
[38:48.940 --> 38:55.100]  fortified trailer is that right I'm reminded at one point I was interviewing
[38:55.100 --> 38:59.380]  with Harris semiconductor I wanted to move back to Florida to be closer to my
[38:59.380 --> 39:03.420]  family and the group I was interviewing with was tracking satellites and they
[39:03.420 --> 39:10.860]  had they they were operating out of a trailer and the and trailers don't do
[39:10.860 --> 39:15.780]  too well with hurricanes or tornadoes and so what these guys did is a joke and
[39:15.780 --> 39:20.380]  they showed me they went up on the roof of the other trailer and they wrote this
[39:20.380 --> 39:27.020]  is not a trailer I guess maybe that's the fortification that Pete Hegseth did
[39:27.020 --> 39:31.460]  you go up there and you're right this is not a trailer this is not these are not
[39:31.460 --> 39:36.580]  the soldiers that you're looking for Iran except that they weren't really
[39:36.580 --> 39:40.900]  protected you know you're not really protected in a trailer like that anyway
[39:40.900 --> 39:45.620]  source told at CNN there was no warning of the attack not only did the air
[39:45.620 --> 39:51.900]  defense not go off but there was no air raid siren that went off struck in the
[39:51.900 --> 39:57.340]  port of Kuwait no siren was activated to alert troops to evacuate there were
[39:57.340 --> 40:01.060]  dozens of people inside the building at the time the walls of the building were
[40:01.060 --> 40:05.500]  blown outward in the blast according to pictures of the site with a fire that
[40:05.740 --> 40:10.260]  was still burning hours afterward early on Monday before the bodies of two
[40:10.260 --> 40:15.100]  servicemen were recovered Hegseth had said that one projectile made it through
[40:15.100 --> 40:20.980]  air defenses and hit a tactical operation center that was fortified this
[40:20.980 --> 40:27.180]  guy's gonna lie to you about everything they always do Trump said sadly there'll
[40:27.180 --> 40:33.500]  be more like this before it ends and I'm afraid he's right about that telling you
[40:33.500 --> 40:39.100]  the truth about that US troops told Trump's attack on Iran is signal fire
[40:39.100 --> 40:43.740]  for Armageddon multiple commanders across all branches of US military have
[40:43.740 --> 40:48.660]  offered a fundamentalist Christian explanation for the attack on Iran folks
[40:48.660 --> 40:56.980]  let's just understand something this is not Christianity Christianity is focused
[40:56.980 --> 41:02.220]  on the Lord Jesus Christ as the way it is not focused on geopolitics it's not
[41:02.220 --> 41:05.900]  focused on fortune-telling what's the end of the world gonna look like you've
[41:05.900 --> 41:10.380]  got these mega churches like Ken Hagee I think is John Hagee John Hagee is his
[41:10.380 --> 41:17.140]  name and I always meant to go check that out one I thought I could stand seeing
[41:17.140 --> 41:21.180]  it I was kind of curious it's in San Antonio so that was some Sunday I went to
[41:21.180 --> 41:25.940]  go down there and see what this this clown is up to he brings in politicians
[41:25.940 --> 41:30.820]  from Israel ambassadors and such like that all the time flags of Israel behind
[41:31.060 --> 41:38.380]  him and he literally worships Israel and he pushes this be careful of people who
[41:38.380 --> 41:45.980]  major in trying to focus on Revelation they completely missed the fact that the
[41:45.980 --> 41:51.580]  letter was titled the Revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ and they treat it as
[41:51.580 --> 41:57.740]  divination of the end of the world so they lecture from the book of divinations
[41:57.780 --> 42:03.300]  they're fortune-tellers they're like the witch of Endor and that's what they're
[42:03.300 --> 42:08.800]  focused on and I don't care if they've got the prophecy right or not and they
[42:08.800 --> 42:15.940]  may have it right who knows but the way they use it is like divination and what
[42:15.940 --> 42:22.580]  they get focused on in terms of politicians and foreign governments it
[42:22.580 --> 42:29.220]  is idolatry and they replaced the Lord Jesus Christ with Netanyahu how
[42:29.220 --> 42:34.100]  disgusting is that so the commander of the unit said one person urged us to
[42:34.100 --> 42:38.420]  tell our troops that this was all part of God's divine plan he specifically
[42:38.420 --> 42:42.780]  referenced numerous citations out of the book of Revelation regarding
[42:42.780 --> 42:48.900]  Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ he said that Trump had been
[42:48.900 --> 42:55.100]  anointed by Jesus to light the first signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon
[42:55.100 --> 43:02.380]  and to mark his return to earth he had a big grin on his face which made his
[43:02.380 --> 43:10.180]  message seem even crazier well it is crazy it is crazy and again these people
[43:10.180 --> 43:14.100]  are not following the Lord Jesus Christ here's here's the this guy Hagee whatever
[43:14.100 --> 43:18.540]  his first name is here he is giving you a taste of the kind of insanity and he's
[43:18.540 --> 43:23.680]  got a big display that he paid a lot of money for it's up there operation epic
[43:23.680 --> 43:28.140]  fury is in the background there as he's talking Russia must find that oil to be
[43:28.140 --> 43:33.900]  a global force Israel has that oil and Russia is already moving into the
[43:33.900 --> 43:39.860]  Middle East what Israel doesn't have Donald Trump will control secondly
[43:39.860 --> 43:47.260]  Israel has what Russia must have to be a global force a warm water port for their
[43:47.260 --> 43:53.220]  Navy right now Russia's Navy is limited by the icy conditions that surround
[43:53.220 --> 44:01.420]  them makes their ships unusable Ezekiel states that God quote in the fury of
[44:01.420 --> 44:06.060]  his wrath will send a great earthquake in the land of Israel so that the fish
[44:06.060 --> 44:10.740]  of the sea and the birds of the Helen heaven and the beast of the field and
[44:10.740 --> 44:15.180]  all creeping things that creep on the earth shall shake at the presence of God
[44:15.940 --> 44:20.700]  I wonder if the creepy things includes him I don't know can you imagine going
[44:20.700 --> 44:26.700]  to church and all you're gonna get is a bunch of occult divination T Lee the T
[44:26.700 --> 44:30.660]  leave reading and all the rest of this stuff he's not gonna tell you about the
[44:30.660 --> 44:35.420]  Lord Jesus Christ why he what was necessary for him to come what he has
[44:35.420 --> 44:38.460]  done for you he's not gonna tell you about any of that stuff he's constantly
[44:38.460 --> 44:41.540]  pointing to politics he's constantly saying well this is what's gonna happen
[44:41.700 --> 44:49.420]  in the future it's just it disgusts me quite frankly that's not not Christianity
[44:49.420 --> 44:55.100]  not Christianity at all and then we have terms of talking about principles we
[44:55.100 --> 44:59.140]  have Tulsi Gabbard this is not that piece from the American conservative
[44:59.140 --> 45:04.940]  saying she should resign and the person writes this says well we all know but
[45:04.940 --> 45:12.380]  politics is as the adage goes the art of compromise but it shouldn't involve
[45:12.380 --> 45:18.540]  sacrificing first principles that's the key thing right if you're going to
[45:18.540 --> 45:21.780]  sacrifice that why would you even put that adjective there is first
[45:21.780 --> 45:26.900]  principles you got to have some principles that matter some things that
[45:26.900 --> 45:33.060]  are foundational and you don't compromise on those things and so he
[45:33.060 --> 45:40.320]  says it's difficult for ideologues to try to wield substantial power everyone
[45:40.320 --> 45:44.180]  in politics has determined just how far they're willing to compromise to be
[45:44.180 --> 45:49.720]  productive before violating their own principles or even losing their soul to
[45:49.720 --> 45:55.500]  the process well I would say that you'd maybe call me an ideologue but I would
[45:55.500 --> 46:00.000]  say you don't violate your principles now you can compromise a lot of different
[46:00.000 --> 46:04.120]  things that are there but not your principles it's clear that after this
[46:04.120 --> 46:10.040]  weekend and the joint unprovoked American Israeli attack on Iran director
[46:10.040 --> 46:16.240]  of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard must choose to resign or forfeit any
[46:16.240 --> 46:20.120]  respectability in the American first movement not just the American first
[46:20.120 --> 46:26.520]  movement any respectability at all and the sad thing is is that if you look at
[46:26.520 --> 46:33.720]  this if she is doing this for political advantage for career advantage she would
[46:33.720 --> 46:39.280]  be better off to take a principled stand as she has stood over and over again he
[46:39.280 --> 46:42.280]  goes to this article talking about how many times during her presidential
[46:42.280 --> 46:46.000]  campaign and when she was elected to Congress all the different times that
[46:46.000 --> 46:52.140]  she has taken a stand against endless wars against regime change and now she's
[46:52.140 --> 46:57.780]  going to be silent and we have seen this already she truthfully labeled
[46:57.780 --> 47:03.420]  Clinton quote the queen of warmongers the embodiment of corruption and the
[47:03.420 --> 47:08.160]  personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party for so
[47:08.160 --> 47:12.740]  long she said well that's absolutely right in front of the National Guard
[47:12.740 --> 47:16.580]  Association Tulsi said this is one of the main reasons why I'm committed to
[47:16.580 --> 47:21.740]  doing what all that I can to send Trump back to the White House I played this
[47:21.740 --> 47:27.740]  clip for you before let's see we don't have it on the board anymore can once
[47:27.740 --> 47:32.180]  again serve us as our commander in chief because I am confident that his first
[47:32.180 --> 47:36.660]  task will be to do the work to walk us back from the brink of war we cannot be
[47:36.660 --> 47:41.600]  prosperous unless we are at peace but she says the right thing but then when
[47:41.600 --> 47:47.580]  it comes time to do it she backs off she said we are uniting forces to end
[47:47.580 --> 47:52.380]  foreign wars during her confirmation hearing she had to reverse her longtime
[47:52.380 --> 47:58.300]  opposition to keep her visions of the FISA act remember that for an
[47:58.300 --> 48:04.020]  intelligence surveillance act I said right then no it's over right you've
[48:04.020 --> 48:08.300]  seen RFK jr. do the same thing violate his principles over and over again
[48:08.300 --> 48:13.100]  again the latest one of those is what he's done with glyphosate praising
[48:13.100 --> 48:18.380]  Trump's executive order to not only compel greater production of glyphosate
[48:18.380 --> 48:23.780]  but also to give them legal immunity from lawsuits as they have paid out tens
[48:23.780 --> 48:29.180]  of billions of dollars and there have been hundreds of thousands of cases and
[48:29.180 --> 48:33.420]  the juries have looked at these and you've had scientific studies we know
[48:33.420 --> 48:38.540]  how harmful this is and juries have awarded tens of billions of dollars to
[48:38.540 --> 48:44.420]  victims of Monsanto Trump is going to give them legal immunity from that and
[48:44.420 --> 48:51.300]  he's going to push for production greater production of this poison again
[48:51.300 --> 48:57.340]  and then RFK jr. joins along with them RFK jr. knows it's the wrong thing Tulsi
[48:57.340 --> 49:02.780]  Gabbard knows this is the wrong thing as well as a matter of fact even though she
[49:02.780 --> 49:08.260]  caved on FISA she refused to label Ed Snowden a traitor or to condemn his
[49:08.260 --> 49:12.660]  exposure of mass illegal surveillance by the NSA so some people held out a
[49:12.660 --> 49:16.900]  little bit of hope for her Gabbard confirmed in congressional testimony
[49:16.900 --> 49:22.180]  that Iran is quote not building a nuclear weapon and supreme leader
[49:22.180 --> 49:27.380]  Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in
[49:27.380 --> 49:33.380]  2003 and that's the same conclusion that her predecessors had reached 20 years
[49:33.460 --> 49:39.140]  earlier but when Trump undermined her influence including telling reporters
[49:39.140 --> 49:44.100]  flatly well I don't care what she says you know she's the director of national
[49:44.100 --> 49:46.740]  intelligence he doesn't care what she has to say he's gonna do whatever he
[49:46.740 --> 49:51.540]  wants he's gonna listen to Israel anyway Gabbard tried to straddle the
[49:51.540 --> 49:56.260]  fence and she said Iran can produce a nuclear weapon within weeks or months if
[49:56.260 --> 50:02.740]  they decide to finalize the assembly a restatement of her initial conclusion
[50:02.740 --> 50:10.020]  reworded to follow the president well the US bombed Iran's nuclear facilities
[50:10.020 --> 50:15.460]  last year there was a public discussion over whether Gabbard was on her way out
[50:15.460 --> 50:20.980]  and disappointment from her former supporters that she was not making a
[50:20.980 --> 50:26.180]  more forthright stand on the facts but she caved on that as well during a
[50:26.180 --> 50:31.140]  security summit in Bahrain she gave a full-throated condemnation of
[50:31.140 --> 50:35.300]  neoconservative arrogance and foreign policy she said for decades our foreign
[50:35.300 --> 50:38.820]  policy has been trapped in a counterproductive endless cycle of
[50:38.820 --> 50:44.260]  regime change or nation building it was a one-size-fits-all approach of toppling
[50:44.260 --> 50:51.300]  regimes and we have ayatollahs in charge of Iran today precisely because of the
[50:51.300 --> 50:56.500]  bone-headed stupid foreign policy of regime change that we did in 1953 in
[50:56.500 --> 51:02.100]  Iran that is a failure of some of our first stuff and it's been failing for 73
[51:02.100 --> 51:08.340]  years we've been failing at regime change longer than we've been failing at
[51:08.340 --> 51:16.820]  the drug war imagine that and so what is she to do now well this writer says it
[51:16.820 --> 51:23.540]  talks about how marjorie taylor green has taken a stand and that resigned and
[51:23.540 --> 51:30.900]  there's also a precedent of woodrow wilson and his and his let's see secretary
[51:30.900 --> 51:36.340]  of state was william jennings brian right and the two of them work together
[51:36.340 --> 51:40.500]  and effectively until the outbreak of world war one in europe
[51:40.500 --> 51:44.980]  william jennings brian insisted on true neutrality
[51:44.980 --> 51:50.500]  and he favored warning american citizens against traveling on belligerent ships
[51:50.580 --> 51:54.980]  through war zones and prohibiting american passenger ships from carrying ammunition
[51:56.020 --> 52:01.300]  in the aftermath of the sinking of the lucitania where 128 americans were killed
[52:02.180 --> 52:08.100]  woodrow wilson's provocative response to the german government to that brian submitted his
[52:08.100 --> 52:16.740]  resignation rather than carry out the policy that got us involved in world war one he wrote
[52:16.740 --> 52:23.540]  i cannot join without violating what i deemed to be an obligation to my country and the issue
[52:23.540 --> 52:30.180]  involved is of such moment that to remain a member of the cabinet would be unfair to you as it would
[52:30.180 --> 52:39.700]  be to the cause which is nearest to my heart namely the prevention of war tulsi gabard should
[52:39.700 --> 52:45.220]  follow the same example writes this author of american conservative she should resign her post
[52:45.780 --> 52:51.540]  in opposition to the iran war and publicly condemn trump's betrayal of the american people
[52:52.340 --> 52:59.380]  and the betrayal of his promise of no more endless wars she could have a long career
[52:59.380 --> 53:03.940]  of advocacy and public service ahead of her if she has principles
[53:06.100 --> 53:10.260]  i really don't know what happens if she continues to go down the same course that she has
[53:10.820 --> 53:17.060]  of compromising on fundamental principles again she could be even a formidable candidate for
[53:17.060 --> 53:22.180]  president because many people i wouldn't vote for her as too too much baggage as a matter of fact
[53:22.180 --> 53:30.740]  part of the baggage that tulsi gabard has is that she was pro-life before she desired to have a
[53:31.780 --> 53:39.380]  seat in congress she had to run as a democrat so she changed her positions on that she's not pro-life
[53:39.380 --> 53:46.260]  when it comes to war either now is she and so she doesn't abortion flip-flop she does a war and
[53:46.260 --> 53:52.820]  regime change flip-flop she's just another opportunist and we should understand that
[53:54.020 --> 53:57.300]  we're going to take a quick break before we do i've got a couple of comments here still patriot
[53:57.300 --> 54:01.140]  thank you very much for the tip he says i'm not even disappointed in the politicians they just
[54:01.140 --> 54:07.220]  do what they're always doing it's in their nature right lying and stealing it's the voters that
[54:07.220 --> 54:12.180]  allow them to get away with it that is the disappointment i agree that's the way i felt
[54:12.740 --> 54:17.620]  throughout 2020 it's like what is a matter with americans why are we doing this why are we why
[54:17.620 --> 54:21.700]  are we going in single file in the grocery store in one direction following all the little arrows
[54:21.700 --> 54:26.100]  on the floor and everything just like that they tell you do it and everybody falls in line i
[54:26.100 --> 54:32.100]  i just didn't realize that this country was like that i was so disappointed in the people of
[54:32.180 --> 54:38.020]  america i was disappointed in the business owners that would not allow me to sit down
[54:38.020 --> 54:44.420]  and have a meal without a mask i had to wear the mask and show that i was obedient to the government
[54:44.420 --> 54:49.300]  before they would seat me at one of their tables i said to them i called them i did this multiple
[54:49.300 --> 54:53.700]  times i would wouldn't go to the chains because i knew the chains were just run by employees and
[54:53.700 --> 54:57.940]  they didn't really care about profits but i thought well i mean maybe i've had a small business before
[54:58.020 --> 55:02.580]  i know that you don't want to poison your relationship with your customers and
[55:02.580 --> 55:06.820]  you're looking at the bottom line you don't want to turn people away so then let me talk to them
[55:06.820 --> 55:14.740]  about this twice i called people over and made a scene and i said look at this everybody is
[55:14.740 --> 55:19.140]  sitting here nobody is wearing a mask and you're telling me that i can't get into this restaurant
[55:19.140 --> 55:23.460]  unless i first put on a mask and so what's that about you know that's not changing anything and
[55:23.460 --> 55:26.820]  you know that these people once they're sitting down and they don't have a mask and they're eating
[55:26.820 --> 55:29.940]  they can stand up and they can walk around the restaurant and they can go to the restroom and
[55:29.940 --> 55:36.180]  all that kind of stuff you don't hassle them well you have to do it i was like no i don't you know
[55:36.180 --> 55:40.340]  finally i said to both of them i said and there's something else i don't ever have to do ever come
[55:40.340 --> 55:44.580]  back to your restaurant you're dead to me i'm never coming back to this place if you're going
[55:44.580 --> 55:49.300]  to be like that if you're going to sell the rope that is used to hang you i'm not coming back
[55:50.740 --> 55:56.580]  oh yeah i'm disappointed in americans in a big way tornado thank you for the tip apparently
[55:56.580 --> 56:01.860]  that quote where trump said it run as republican because they're stupid is fake well i don't know
[56:02.740 --> 56:08.820]  although the sheep who trust the establishment of either party are stupid by default that is true
[56:08.820 --> 56:13.140]  yeah i don't know i guess i um i've heard that so many times i just assumed it was true
[56:13.700 --> 56:19.140]  but um i think i agree with that assessment and i agree with your assessment that the sheep and
[56:19.140 --> 56:24.980]  both of these parties are stupid we're going to take a quick break folks and we will come
[56:24.980 --> 56:31.620]  right back and again let's play shannon doha because i i as i look at this war i sympathize
[56:31.620 --> 56:36.260]  more and more the character that's played by jimmy stewart i don't want to have anything to do with
[56:36.260 --> 56:41.620]  either side of this thing and yet we're going to be caught up in this one way or the other
[56:41.620 --> 56:54.260]  whether we like it or not
[57:11.620 --> 57:24.260]  do
[58:11.620 --> 58:22.940]  APS Radio delivers multiple channels of music right to your mobile device.
[58:22.940 --> 58:26.260]  Get the APS Radio app today and listen wherever you go.
[58:26.260 --> 58:33.700]  Well, as I said at the top of the show, we have the California House and Senate, unanimously.
[58:33.700 --> 58:40.360]  And Gavin Newsom has signed it as well, signed into law, something's going to happen in January
[58:40.360 --> 58:47.080]  next year, which has a troubling contradiction at its heart.
[58:47.080 --> 58:56.080]  It's also about the desire to turn the use of the internet into a trackable privilege.
[58:56.080 --> 58:59.920]  Of course, to save the children as well is what they put it out there.
[58:59.920 --> 59:06.480]  But it also has an element in it, I believe, that is chronic capitalism.
[59:06.480 --> 59:10.540]  Because when you look at this, the effect that it's going to have is going to be to
[59:10.540 --> 59:13.280]  effectively outlaw things like Linux.
[59:13.280 --> 59:15.680]  Who benefits from that?
[59:15.680 --> 59:20.460]  Microsoft, Google, Apple, those people who are putting those things up.
[59:20.460 --> 59:21.960]  They will benefit from that.
[59:21.960 --> 59:26.280]  Specifically, Microsoft and Apple will benefit with their OS systems.
[59:26.280 --> 59:29.280]  They don't want to have any independent third party things.
[59:29.280 --> 59:31.400]  And we're seeing this over and over again.
[59:31.400 --> 59:37.240]  You notice how our masters are so upset when we talk to each other, when we can communicate
[59:37.240 --> 59:38.240]  with each other.
[59:38.240 --> 59:40.200]  They've got to control that.
[59:40.200 --> 59:44.720]  And they've got to control any ability that we have to make or create things as well.
[59:44.720 --> 59:49.960]  It's not just you will own nothing and you'll be happier, but you will also not create anything
[59:49.960 --> 59:50.960]  either.
[59:50.960 --> 59:52.460]  That's a big part of this.
[59:52.460 --> 59:58.680]  So as California law goes into effect January 2027, and it will basically kill open source
[59:59.240 --> 01:00:01.760]  operating systems.
[01:00:01.760 --> 01:00:07.320]  California wants to build a surveillance layer into every device that its residents touch.
[01:00:07.320 --> 01:00:09.200]  This is from Reclaim the Net.
[01:00:09.200 --> 01:00:15.960]  Assembly Bill 1043, signed by Gavin Newsom, taking effect the first day of next year,
[01:00:15.960 --> 01:00:23.460]  January the 1st, 2027, requires every operating system provide to collect age information
[01:00:23.460 --> 01:00:30.380]  from users at account setup and broadcast that data to app developers through a real
[01:00:30.380 --> 01:00:32.860]  time API.
[01:00:32.860 --> 01:00:37.660]  The proposals are particularly dumb for open source Linux operating systems.
[01:00:37.660 --> 01:00:43.540]  Linux exists specifically because some people want computing that doesn't surveil them.
[01:00:43.540 --> 01:00:50.700]  I mean, look at what is happening with Microsoft and how they're embedding their AI into the
[01:00:51.100 --> 01:00:52.100]  operating system.
[01:00:52.100 --> 01:00:59.100]  They've taken the surveillance and the naggy aspect of this even more so, and people are
[01:00:59.100 --> 01:01:04.260]  talking about Microsoft software, talking about AI.
[01:01:04.260 --> 01:01:08.300]  It's very intrusive, and people are trying to get away from that.
[01:01:08.300 --> 01:01:10.180]  So they go to Linux.
[01:01:10.180 --> 01:01:13.380]  It's not incidental to why the platform exists.
[01:01:13.380 --> 01:01:16.740]  It is foundational to why people go to Linux.
[01:01:16.740 --> 01:01:19.260]  And there's other operating systems out there as well.
[01:01:19.260 --> 01:01:28.740]  Things like Arch, Debian, Gen2 have no centralized account infrastructure, and that is by design.
[01:01:28.740 --> 01:01:34.260]  Users download ISOs from mirrors, and they modify source code freely, and they run systems
[01:01:34.260 --> 01:01:37.660]  that report to nobody.
[01:01:37.660 --> 01:01:47.540]  So this Act AB 1043 treats the entire architecture of open source computing as a compliance problem.
[01:01:48.540 --> 01:01:51.540]  They don't want you to have open source computing.
[01:01:51.540 --> 01:01:54.580]  They don't want you to have 3D printers.
[01:01:54.580 --> 01:01:56.140]  They don't want you to have anything.
[01:01:56.140 --> 01:02:01.100]  You'll own nothing, and you'll create nothing, and they will completely control everything
[01:02:01.100 --> 01:02:02.340]  we have if we let them.
[01:02:02.340 --> 01:02:04.860]  I've just never seen anything like it.
[01:02:04.860 --> 01:02:08.980]  Just when I go through the news, it's one thing after the other where the government
[01:02:08.980 --> 01:02:13.620]  interjecting themselves into points of our life where they don't have any business, where
[01:02:13.700 --> 01:02:18.980]  they don't have any authority being, and where they've never tried to get before.
[01:02:18.980 --> 01:02:19.980]  It's exploding.
[01:02:19.980 --> 01:02:24.320]  And the thing that is at the very center of it is the technology, and I think that's one
[01:02:24.320 --> 01:02:27.380]  of the aspects of the crony capitalism here.
[01:02:27.380 --> 01:02:32.020]  They get that control over us through these big companies, and they want to keep these
[01:02:32.020 --> 01:02:33.580]  big companies as partners.
[01:02:33.580 --> 01:02:39.460]  That's the kind of techno-fascism that we're looking at here to create the surveillance
[01:02:39.460 --> 01:02:42.880]  state and understand that it is bipartisan.
[01:02:42.880 --> 01:02:50.920]  They passed the House 38 to 0, and they have some Republicans in the California House,
[01:02:50.920 --> 01:02:55.880]  and in the Senate, it passed 76 to 0.
[01:02:55.880 --> 01:02:59.040]  Buffy Wicks is the person who authored the bill.
[01:02:59.040 --> 01:03:01.160]  That should tell you something, doesn't it?
[01:03:01.160 --> 01:03:08.760]  Buffy said that it avoids constitutional concerns by focusing strictly on age assurance and
[01:03:08.760 --> 01:03:10.880]  not on content moderation.
[01:03:11.880 --> 01:03:19.200]  Now, first of all, before we get into the double-talk nonsense that that's all about,
[01:03:19.200 --> 01:03:24.920]  just think about the fact that in California, they want your kids to be indoctrinated with
[01:03:24.920 --> 01:03:26.160]  all the LGBT stuff.
[01:03:26.160 --> 01:03:28.840]  They want them to think that they're in the wrong body.
[01:03:28.840 --> 01:03:34.160]  They want every aspect of the LGBT stuff they're pushing to them, and they're very adamant
[01:03:34.160 --> 01:03:40.620]  that children should be able to mutilate, sterilize their bodies at a very early age.
[01:03:40.620 --> 01:03:44.300]  And yet, they want to control what computers they touch.
[01:03:44.300 --> 01:03:47.140]  What's that about?
[01:03:47.140 --> 01:03:52.440]  And have age restrictions on using a computer and an operating system, but not age restrictions
[01:03:52.440 --> 01:03:57.660]  on taking hormones to destroy your body and having a surgeon cut it up?
[01:03:57.660 --> 01:04:00.540]  No age restrictions on that.
[01:04:00.540 --> 01:04:02.900]  How utterly insane.
[01:04:02.900 --> 01:04:08.120]  And as they point out, that statement itself doesn't logically hold up.
[01:04:08.120 --> 01:04:12.320]  What is the point of the monitoring of the age?
[01:04:12.320 --> 01:04:13.560]  Well, we're just looking for the age.
[01:04:13.560 --> 01:04:16.240]  We're not going to do anything to control your content.
[01:04:16.240 --> 01:04:19.960]  Well, that's the whole purpose of finding out your age is to control the content that
[01:04:19.960 --> 01:04:23.480]  you're going to be able to get access to.
[01:04:23.480 --> 01:04:26.040]  What a thin lie that is.
[01:04:26.040 --> 01:04:28.440]  And yet, it passed unanimously.
[01:04:28.440 --> 01:04:33.020]  Everybody in state government, every single person in the California House, every single
[01:04:33.020 --> 01:04:40.180]  person in the California Senate and the governor himself all support this nonsense.
[01:04:40.180 --> 01:04:48.820]  So the the law actually builds a persistent age signaling infrastructure that is woven
[01:04:48.820 --> 01:04:51.460]  into the startup process of your devices.
[01:04:51.460 --> 01:04:58.260]  OS providers must maintain what the bill calls a quote, reasonably consistent real time application
[01:04:58.260 --> 01:05:02.820]  programming interface that sorts users into four age brackets.
[01:05:02.820 --> 01:05:04.540]  And this is not the first time we've seen this.
[01:05:04.540 --> 01:05:06.140]  This is a global agenda.
[01:05:06.140 --> 01:05:08.720]  We've seen this in foreign countries as well.
[01:05:08.720 --> 01:05:13.060]  They all do the same thing, whether it's a traffic light permission system, like they
[01:05:13.060 --> 01:05:14.460]  pushed on us with COVID.
[01:05:14.460 --> 01:05:19.980]  First China did it with social credits and they did it with COVID or whether it's this
[01:05:19.980 --> 01:05:28.820]  Four age brackets under 13, 13 to under 16, 16 to under 18, 18 or older.
[01:05:28.820 --> 01:05:32.540]  I'm chuckling as I look at this because I'm thinking what we could do is we could name
[01:05:32.540 --> 01:05:36.820]  these after different predators in the Epstein files, right?
[01:05:36.820 --> 01:05:41.020]  Well, you're in the Trump bracket here or you're in the Lutnik bracket or you're in
[01:05:41.020 --> 01:05:42.620]  the Jeffrey bracket here.
[01:05:42.620 --> 01:05:44.900]  That'd be the least one, I guess.
[01:05:45.900 --> 01:05:53.580]  Anyway, it's truly, it's very, very transparent what they're trying to do.
[01:05:53.580 --> 01:05:55.300]  They're setting up a police surveillance state.
[01:05:55.300 --> 01:05:58.860]  And so when I go back and I say, so what is it, you know, they don't want the kids to
[01:05:58.860 --> 01:06:01.020]  get access to pornography.
[01:06:01.020 --> 01:06:10.300]  We've had some LGBT advocates out there saying, well, porn is actually good for the LGBT kids.
[01:06:10.300 --> 01:06:11.300]  It trains them or whatever.
[01:06:11.300 --> 01:06:13.660]  It's like, yeah, I bet it does.
[01:06:13.660 --> 01:06:17.500]  And so are they really trying to keep pornography away?
[01:06:17.500 --> 01:06:19.380]  That's typically something that Republicans do.
[01:06:19.380 --> 01:06:24.060]  It's not something you think about the Democrat LGBT party doing.
[01:06:24.060 --> 01:06:33.660]  I think fundamentally, this is about grooming kids for the police surveillance state.
[01:06:33.660 --> 01:06:38.020]  You got to get them accustomed to not having freedom with anything.
[01:06:38.020 --> 01:06:40.340]  I think that's really what they're after here.
[01:06:40.340 --> 01:06:44.900]  It's not there to protect them against some kind of sexual predator or sexual content
[01:06:44.900 --> 01:06:45.900]  or whatever.
[01:06:45.900 --> 01:06:49.340]  They're actually pushing that in the schools.
[01:06:49.340 --> 01:06:53.860]  This is about getting them accustomed to the police surveillance state.
[01:06:53.860 --> 01:06:57.620]  If you stop and think about it, I said this back in the 90s when they were doing lockdowns
[01:06:57.620 --> 01:07:02.060]  in schools and they had, you know, metal detectors and all this kind of stuff that they put in
[01:07:02.060 --> 01:07:03.060]  the schools.
[01:07:03.060 --> 01:07:04.900]  I said, that's training for the police state.
[01:07:04.900 --> 01:07:07.700]  This is training for the police state, in my opinion.
[01:07:07.700 --> 01:07:09.620]  That's exactly what this is.
[01:07:09.620 --> 01:07:14.940]  To me, it's like with technology, you know, any technology you grow up with is just standard.
[01:07:14.940 --> 01:07:16.780]  It's there and you don't even think about it.
[01:07:16.780 --> 01:07:18.420]  It's part of your life.
[01:07:18.420 --> 01:07:22.140]  Any tyranny you grow up with, you barely think about, this is just how it is.
[01:07:22.140 --> 01:07:23.180]  This is how it's always been.
[01:07:23.180 --> 01:07:24.180]  This is all I've ever known.
[01:07:24.180 --> 01:07:25.180]  Yeah.
[01:07:25.180 --> 01:07:28.020]  It's techno tyranny that they're getting them accustomed to.
[01:07:28.020 --> 01:07:30.020]  It's absolutely right.
[01:07:30.020 --> 01:07:34.180]  And that's why the government is so adamant on running school systems, folks.
[01:07:34.180 --> 01:07:38.340]  Don't turn your kids over to them.
[01:07:38.340 --> 01:07:42.360]  It isn't the worst bill of its kind though, says Reclaim the Net.
[01:07:42.360 --> 01:07:45.700]  It doesn't require government ID uploads or facial scans.
[01:07:45.700 --> 01:07:49.420]  Users simply declare their age as set up.
[01:07:49.420 --> 01:07:54.220]  That distinguishes it from other laws in Texas and Utah that require commercially reasonable
[01:07:54.220 --> 01:07:57.500]  verification like government issued ID checks.
[01:07:57.500 --> 01:08:01.900]  And again, typically it's going to be in Republican controlled states like Texas and Utah where
[01:08:01.900 --> 01:08:02.900]  they're going to try to make the case.
[01:08:02.900 --> 01:08:05.160]  We've got to do this for the kids.
[01:08:05.160 --> 01:08:08.320]  This is simply about grooming for the police surveillance state.
[01:08:08.320 --> 01:08:13.320]  I'm kind of surprised that Reclaim the Net doesn't see it that way.
[01:08:13.320 --> 01:08:17.700]  Developers who receive the signal are deemed to have actual knowledge of their user's age
[01:08:17.700 --> 01:08:20.340]  range under the law.
[01:08:20.340 --> 01:08:26.800]  That change in legal liability is a mechanism that makes the whole system work.
[01:08:26.800 --> 01:08:34.500]  Penalties will run up to $2,500 per affected child for negligent violation and $7,500 for
[01:08:34.500 --> 01:08:36.920]  intentional ones.
[01:08:36.920 --> 01:08:44.360]  Developers now have strong financial incentives to request every age signal available.
[01:08:44.360 --> 01:08:45.880]  So what do they do with Linux?
[01:08:45.880 --> 01:08:49.680]  I mean, who do you find Linux for?
[01:08:49.680 --> 01:08:53.360]  It remains to be seen, but basically they'll just criminalize it.
[01:08:53.360 --> 01:08:57.080]  It'll be a black market operating system if it's open source.
[01:08:57.080 --> 01:09:02.560]  If it's somebody that's a big tech company in California, oh well, then you work with
[01:09:02.780 --> 01:09:06.700]  us like the know your customer rules for the banks and so forth.
[01:09:06.700 --> 01:09:11.940]  But if not, you are persona non grata and you may wind up getting the fine yourself.
[01:09:11.940 --> 01:09:14.940]  I don't know exactly how that's going to operate.
[01:09:14.940 --> 01:09:20.860]  DOJ has briefly abandoned Trump's unconstitutional orders that targeting law firms.
[01:09:20.860 --> 01:09:26.180]  Well, the administration's capricious behavior underlies the inherent problem with giving
[01:09:26.180 --> 01:09:28.540]  a single person so much power.
[01:09:28.540 --> 01:09:31.300]  Well, he was never given this power.
[01:09:31.300 --> 01:09:33.040]  He usurped it.
[01:09:33.040 --> 01:09:39.280]  Or it was just abandoned and abdicated by the other branches of government, including
[01:09:39.280 --> 01:09:41.600]  state governments in terms of doing this.
[01:09:41.600 --> 01:09:44.000]  But this goes back to one of the first things that he did.
[01:09:44.000 --> 01:09:46.580]  There were these Democrat law firms.
[01:09:46.580 --> 01:09:52.400]  Some of them were there working with his Democrat enemies like Soros and so forth.
[01:09:52.400 --> 01:09:57.640]  And some of them had been long associated with Hillary Clinton like Perkins Coy.
[01:09:57.880 --> 01:10:02.760]  Some of them had had in one particular case, there was a lawyer who had taken leave of
[01:10:02.760 --> 01:10:09.760]  absence from the law firm and he was working on some of this election stuff in 2020 that
[01:10:09.760 --> 01:10:10.760]  Trump didn't like.
[01:10:10.760 --> 01:10:13.320]  He was on the opposing side of it.
[01:10:13.320 --> 01:10:14.760]  And then he went back to that law firm.
[01:10:14.760 --> 01:10:19.400]  And so now the entire law firm, if you remember this at the very beginning, he said, he singled
[01:10:19.400 --> 01:10:20.400]  out some of these law firms.
[01:10:20.400 --> 01:10:26.840]  He said, they're not going to have security clearance, which immediately takes a lot of
[01:10:26.840 --> 01:10:30.320]  cases off the table for them.
[01:10:30.320 --> 01:10:31.320]  And then he went even further.
[01:10:31.320 --> 01:10:36.600]  He said, as a matter of fact, they're not even going to be allowed into federal buildings.
[01:10:36.600 --> 01:10:39.960]  And so we do something crazy like that.
[01:10:39.960 --> 01:10:40.960]  Crazy and vindictive.
[01:10:40.960 --> 01:10:43.080]  And you do it to law firms.
[01:10:43.080 --> 01:10:44.240]  These are large law firms.
[01:10:44.240 --> 01:10:47.080]  Of course, they're going to sue you back.
[01:10:47.080 --> 01:10:52.720]  And so what we had was this lawsuit that he kicked off.
[01:10:52.720 --> 01:10:57.320]  And now what you had was the Department of Justice came back and said, all right, we're
[01:10:57.320 --> 01:11:00.920]  going to just let this, we're going to drop this.
[01:11:00.920 --> 01:11:07.840]  And within 24 hours, they came back and said, you know, they filed a motion with the courts
[01:11:07.840 --> 01:11:09.600]  and we're just going to drop this case.
[01:11:09.600 --> 01:11:17.400]  Within 24 hours, evidently, Donnie got a wind of this or whatever, and came back and they
[01:11:17.560 --> 01:11:23.440]  filed a motion to withdraw that, what they had just given the court and said, no, we're
[01:11:23.440 --> 01:11:26.160]  going to continue with it again within 24 hours.
[01:11:26.160 --> 01:11:27.760]  They do a complete 180.
[01:11:27.760 --> 01:11:34.120]  That's why I said, you know, Trump is always capricious and odious.
[01:11:34.120 --> 01:11:36.480]  That's what TACO stands for.
[01:11:36.480 --> 01:11:42.840]  And it is truly amazing and how petty this is, how personal it all is, as I said, even
[01:11:42.840 --> 01:11:44.480]  the things that he does with foreign countries.
[01:11:44.480 --> 01:11:49.480]  You've got Spain did not do something that he wanted them to do in support of what he's
[01:11:49.480 --> 01:11:50.480]  doing with Iran.
[01:11:50.480 --> 01:11:57.840]  So he just decides that he's going to block exports from Spain and the United States,
[01:11:57.840 --> 01:11:58.840]  just like that.
[01:11:58.840 --> 01:12:01.040]  He's not playing geopolitics.
[01:12:01.040 --> 01:12:03.760]  He's playing ego politics.
[01:12:03.760 --> 01:12:05.680]  Now this has anything to do with economics.
[01:12:05.680 --> 01:12:08.680]  It all has to do with ego-nomics.
[01:12:08.680 --> 01:12:11.600]  And so they changed their name within 24 hours.
[01:12:12.280 --> 01:12:18.360]  Following morning, they came out and filed a motion to withdraw their previous motion,
[01:12:18.360 --> 01:12:20.880]  a voluntary dismissal.
[01:12:20.880 --> 01:12:23.800]  As I point out here in reason, they say the capricious nature of the case of the government
[01:12:23.800 --> 01:12:29.000]  reversing then unreversing its course underlies the inherent problem with them binding so
[01:12:29.000 --> 01:12:32.760]  much power into a single person.
[01:12:32.760 --> 01:12:38.400]  We're starting to see the wisdom of the founders yet again, why it was designed this way.
[01:12:38.400 --> 01:12:41.000]  They understood human nature.
[01:12:41.000 --> 01:12:46.840]  And they did it the way they did it to protect us against people like Donald Trump.
[01:12:46.840 --> 01:12:50.640]  After reentering office last year, Trump issued executive orders against more than a dozen
[01:12:50.640 --> 01:12:53.680]  law firms favored by Democrats.
[01:12:53.680 --> 01:12:57.760]  The orders imposed unworkable restrictions that would prevent the firms from representing
[01:12:57.760 --> 01:13:04.640]  any clients in any federal cases and types of things that I had mentioned before.
[01:13:04.640 --> 01:13:13.880]  And so the one guy was not even working for the law firm when he was on a case opposing
[01:13:13.880 --> 01:13:14.880]  Trump.
[01:13:14.880 --> 01:13:21.560]  Put another way, Trump punished a multinational law firm with over 500 attorneys based on
[01:13:21.560 --> 01:13:27.440]  a job that one employee took while he didn't work there.
[01:13:27.440 --> 01:13:33.400]  That's the level of personal vengeance that Trump wants to pursue.
[01:13:33.400 --> 01:13:38.720]  And so as one person said is with the foundation for individual rights and expression, he said,
[01:13:38.720 --> 01:13:43.320]  even if you share the president's dim view of big law, and I do, and I've criticized
[01:13:43.320 --> 01:13:48.400]  these law firms and what they've done in the past as well, consider that his actions set
[01:13:48.400 --> 01:13:56.160]  a dangerous precedent, again, President Trump, that will outlast his administration.
[01:13:56.160 --> 01:14:01.160]  In the future, perhaps lawyers who represented Republican politicians, or who challenged
[01:14:01.160 --> 01:14:07.560]  mail-in voting procedures, or who defended abortion restrictions will face retributions
[01:14:07.560 --> 01:14:13.240]  instead of the Democrats with this, because that's what's going to happen, exactly.
[01:14:13.240 --> 01:14:17.840]  And you know, when we talk about the flock cameras and the license plate readers and
[01:14:17.840 --> 01:14:22.680]  all the rest of the surveillance state and tied into the ring cameras and other things
[01:14:22.680 --> 01:14:29.040]  like that, how we've set this up, it turns out that that was a big part of how they were
[01:14:29.080 --> 01:14:39.200]  able to track these Iranians and do the assassination of Khamenei, hacked traffic cameras.
[01:14:39.200 --> 01:14:45.560]  They hacked into the network of traffic cameras in Iran.
[01:14:45.560 --> 01:14:49.700]  And then they were able to feed all kinds of that kind of information plus other kinds
[01:14:49.700 --> 01:14:56.920]  of information, all this geospatial intelligence, they were able to feed it into an AI program.
[01:14:56.920 --> 01:15:00.920]  And it was going to sort out who the interesting people were there.
[01:15:00.920 --> 01:15:02.080]  Remember when Michael Hayden said that?
[01:15:02.080 --> 01:15:07.280]  He said, we're not interested in everybody, we're interested in interesting people.
[01:15:07.280 --> 01:15:14.000]  And now they have the tools to go through this mountain of data and find the people
[01:15:14.000 --> 01:15:18.560]  that they want to attack, first of all, identify them by their politics.
[01:15:18.560 --> 01:15:27.760]  I'm truly amazed when I go to X and I click, you know, there's a thing when you when you
[01:15:27.760 --> 01:15:31.000]  go over somebody's name, you can do a summary of somebody's profile.
[01:15:31.000 --> 01:15:34.200]  I was surprised at their summary of me.
[01:15:34.200 --> 01:15:36.800]  I thought it was pretty spot on.
[01:15:36.800 --> 01:15:42.120]  And certainly something that would stick out to the powers that be is something that they
[01:15:42.680 --> 01:15:43.880]  interested in.
[01:15:43.880 --> 01:15:48.200]  But that's where we all are right now.
[01:15:48.200 --> 01:15:50.400]  And that's what artificial intelligence is about.
[01:15:50.400 --> 01:15:54.880]  And that's why the Trump administration is so adamant that they want to and it was a
[01:15:54.880 --> 01:16:01.200]  bipartisan thing, actually, and that big, beautiful bill, whatever, stop any restrictions
[01:16:01.200 --> 01:16:05.640]  or legislation controlling artificial intelligence for a decade and you know what will happen
[01:16:05.640 --> 01:16:11.080]  in a decade, they will extend it or they'll make it even worse.
[01:16:11.080 --> 01:16:16.120]  So the traffic cameras on the streets of Tehran provided a real time view of the targets.
[01:16:16.120 --> 01:16:18.120]  It was hacked years ago.
[01:16:18.120 --> 01:16:22.760]  The cameras allowed Israel to map the city in detail, establish patterns of movement
[01:16:22.760 --> 01:16:27.720]  and build an intricate complex picture of what was happening inside an enemy capital.
[01:16:27.720 --> 01:16:32.480]  And as I've said over and over again, it's geospatial intelligence that has been the
[01:16:32.480 --> 01:16:38.600]  fastest growing part of the intelligence community going back to the late 1990s.
[01:16:38.600 --> 01:16:41.760]  And that's where James Clapper grew up.
[01:16:41.760 --> 01:16:45.360]  And they would have before the lockdown, they would have conventions on an annual basis
[01:16:45.360 --> 01:16:50.360]  where they have thousands of people go to these geospatial intelligence conventions.
[01:16:50.360 --> 01:16:55.040]  And part of it is some other kind of AI they would talk about.
[01:16:55.040 --> 01:17:00.400]  Even before they had artificial intelligence, they were doing anticipatory intelligence
[01:17:00.400 --> 01:17:03.440]  to predict where people are going to go.
[01:17:03.440 --> 01:17:08.280]  And all of this was to sort through and find interesting people, people who you didn't
[01:17:08.280 --> 01:17:10.480]  like their politics or you didn't like their religion.
[01:17:10.480 --> 01:17:15.200]  The cameras are only one part of a much more complex system, some of whose details were
[01:17:15.200 --> 01:17:20.040]  first reported by the Financial Times that allowed Israel to build one of to build one
[01:17:20.040 --> 01:17:26.200]  of what is really source familiar with the matter called an AI powered target production
[01:17:26.200 --> 01:17:27.200]  machine.
[01:17:27.200 --> 01:17:31.920]  It was capable of processing massive amounts of data.
[01:17:31.920 --> 01:17:35.100]  Now they're not saying this in the article, but we can read through the lines.
[01:17:35.100 --> 01:17:41.900]  We know that that's basically what Palantir does Palantir that is their bread and butter.
[01:17:41.900 --> 01:17:48.300]  And we also know because it's back and forth between Pentagon, Pete and anthropic that
[01:17:48.300 --> 01:17:50.780]  has the Claude AI.
[01:17:50.780 --> 01:17:54.100]  We know that Palantir was using Claude AI for their stuff as well.
[01:17:54.100 --> 01:17:56.020]  So they're both involved in this.
[01:17:56.020 --> 01:18:02.180]  It went visual and went visual intelligence, human intelligence, signals intelligence,
[01:18:02.180 --> 01:18:06.060]  intercepted communications, satellite imagery and more.
[01:18:06.060 --> 01:18:09.300]  And so the visual intelligence was there with these traffic cameras, right?
[01:18:09.300 --> 01:18:11.780]  Then they had some people on the ground.
[01:18:11.780 --> 01:18:15.940]  Then they had signals that they would intercept as well as satellite images.
[01:18:15.940 --> 01:18:21.900]  They feed all of this stuff into artificial intelligence and it would sort through this
[01:18:21.900 --> 01:18:29.400]  massive mountain of data, which is what it is excellent at doing.
[01:18:29.400 --> 01:18:35.840]  And so the massive quantity of information that would go in and they would draw out the
[01:18:35.840 --> 01:18:38.360]  targets, the people that they want to target.
[01:18:38.360 --> 01:18:41.760]  It has added to what Israel has reportedly shown to be a long standing penetration of
[01:18:41.760 --> 01:18:46.760]  Iran's inner circles, which has enabled it to assassinate scores of Iran's top nuclear
[01:18:46.760 --> 01:18:52.840]  scientists and officials over the years and to steal the country's nuclear archive and
[01:18:52.840 --> 01:18:56.440]  to kill Hamas's political leaders and Tehran.
[01:18:56.480 --> 01:19:01.760]  The system has proven itself before as a matter of fact, although the U.S. and Iran were engaged
[01:19:01.760 --> 01:19:08.840]  in negotiations over Taiwan's nuclear program, Netanyahu believed and felt that there was
[01:19:08.840 --> 01:19:11.280]  never going to be enough common ground to reach a deal.
[01:19:11.280 --> 01:19:16.360]  And of course, you know that because we have seen the clips of him talking for over 30
[01:19:16.360 --> 01:19:20.160]  years about how, well, any day now they're going to have nuclear weapons.
[01:19:20.160 --> 01:19:25.400]  So there's absolutely no way that Netanyahu was involved in a good faith negotiations
[01:19:25.400 --> 01:19:27.000]  with this.
[01:19:27.000 --> 01:19:30.880]  So he met with Trump at the White House, February 11th.
[01:19:30.880 --> 01:19:35.720]  The two of them had a private meeting for nearly three hours.
[01:19:35.720 --> 01:19:39.000]  They only released a single photo.
[01:19:39.000 --> 01:19:40.000]  So they were pretty busy.
[01:19:40.000 --> 01:19:43.280]  You know, it's not a photo session.
[01:19:43.280 --> 01:19:46.480]  The talk was not about ongoing Iranian negotiations.
[01:19:46.480 --> 01:19:52.760]  Instead, they were drawing up plans for a joint attack.
[01:19:52.760 --> 01:19:59.080]  All before they got into these negotiations, the negotiations were just treachery.
[01:19:59.080 --> 01:20:02.560]  Think about that and think about what these people are set up to do.
[01:20:02.560 --> 01:20:09.720]  The Electronic Freedom Foundation is filing a brief to shut down unconstitutional geofence
[01:20:09.720 --> 01:20:11.640]  searches.
[01:20:11.640 --> 01:20:14.600]  And again, this is the geofence searches.
[01:20:14.600 --> 01:20:19.000]  We saw a little bit of that with January the 6th, but they're doing it over and over again.
[01:20:19.000 --> 01:20:21.960]  They're setting up the surveillance states of America.
[01:20:21.960 --> 01:20:26.260]  We should be very concerned about geospatial intelligence, about geofencing.
[01:20:26.260 --> 01:20:31.520]  The brief argues that geofence warrants, which compel companies to provide information on
[01:20:31.520 --> 01:20:37.240]  every electronic device in a given area during a given time period, are a digital version
[01:20:37.240 --> 01:20:41.720]  of the exploratory rummaging that the drafters of the Fourth Amendment specifically intended
[01:20:41.720 --> 01:20:45.680]  to prevent by requiring a search warrant.
[01:20:45.680 --> 01:20:50.440]  Unlike typical warrants, geofence warrants do not name a suspect or even target a specific
[01:20:50.440 --> 01:20:52.360]  individual or device.
[01:20:52.360 --> 01:20:58.880]  Instead, police cast a digital dragnet demanding location data on every device in a geographic
[01:20:58.880 --> 01:21:03.800]  area during a certain time period, regardless of whether the device owner has any connection
[01:21:03.800 --> 01:21:06.760]  to the crime at all under investigation.
[01:21:06.760 --> 01:21:12.400]  And we've talked about places where this has really led to some horrific false identification
[01:21:12.400 --> 01:21:17.640]  and consequences for people who are caught up in this dragnet simply because they were
[01:21:17.640 --> 01:21:19.640]  in an area.
[01:21:19.640 --> 01:21:26.600]  The Supreme Court agreed to hear Chattery v. United States, in which a 2019 geofence
[01:21:26.600 --> 01:21:31.960]  warrant compelled Google to search the accounts of all of its hundreds of millions of users
[01:21:31.960 --> 01:21:36.720]  to see if any of them was within a radius that police drew around a Northern Virginia
[01:21:36.720 --> 01:21:38.500]  crime scene.
[01:21:38.500 --> 01:21:45.600]  This area amounted to several football fields in size, and it encompassed numerous homes,
[01:21:45.600 --> 01:21:48.600]  businesses, and even a church.
[01:21:48.600 --> 01:21:57.120]  In an amicus brief that was filed Monday, they argued that allowing this kind of sweeping
[01:21:57.120 --> 01:22:04.400]  power to go unchecked is inconsistent with the freedoms of a democratic society.
[01:22:04.400 --> 01:22:06.240]  Of course it is.
[01:22:06.240 --> 01:22:10.320]  This is not a traditional police work, but rather the leveraging of new and powerful
[01:22:10.320 --> 01:22:16.400]  technology to claim a novel and formidable power over its people.
[01:22:17.360 --> 01:22:24.180]  By their very nature, the geofence searches turn innocent bystanders into suspects and
[01:22:24.180 --> 01:22:30.480]  leverages even purportedly limited searches into larger dragnets, causing intrusions at
[01:22:30.480 --> 01:22:35.280]  a scale far beyond those held constitutional in the physical world.
[01:22:35.280 --> 01:22:42.360]  EFF has repeatedly argued that these high-tech efforts to pull suspects out of thin air cannot
[01:22:42.360 --> 01:22:46.000]  be constitutional even with a warrant.
[01:22:46.000 --> 01:22:50.880]  The searches are just the kind of impermissible general warrants that the framers of the
[01:22:50.880 --> 01:22:54.480]  Constitution so reviled.
[01:22:54.480 --> 01:22:56.160]  And that's where we are here, folks.
[01:22:56.160 --> 01:23:00.840]  These people will do anything and everything to set up a police surveillance state.
[01:23:00.840 --> 01:23:03.320]  They're going to ban operating systems.
[01:23:03.320 --> 01:23:06.400]  They want to ban 3D printers.
[01:23:06.400 --> 01:23:08.920]  And not just because of the ghost gun stuff.
[01:23:09.360 --> 01:23:17.080]  They always come up with some kind of a rationale and some kind of a scary label for something.
[01:23:17.080 --> 01:23:20.920]  DG8, thank you very much for the tip, says, David, the sad part about this California
[01:23:20.920 --> 01:23:27.280]  tyrannical action is that it's plain to see that we have one giant uni party.
[01:23:27.280 --> 01:23:29.720]  People can't and won't see it.
[01:23:29.720 --> 01:23:30.920]  That's right.
[01:23:30.920 --> 01:23:32.840]  The left-right bogus paradigm is undeniable.
[01:23:32.840 --> 01:23:35.600]  David, they will never go after the porn industry.
[01:23:35.600 --> 01:23:38.480]  Do you realize the top two funders of APAC?
[01:23:38.480 --> 01:23:40.440]  This is a porn industry.
[01:23:40.440 --> 01:23:41.920]  Mind Geek is owned by a rabbi.
[01:23:41.920 --> 01:23:42.920]  That's number one.
[01:23:42.920 --> 01:23:44.120]  OnlyFans is number two.
[01:23:44.120 --> 01:23:45.120]  Also owned by a rabbi.
[01:23:45.120 --> 01:23:53.440]  And then, of course, you've got Scumly Boteach, who is a rabbi who sells sex toys, and Alex
[01:23:53.440 --> 01:23:55.520]  has him on a lot.
[01:23:55.520 --> 01:23:59.400]  Didn't have him on when I was there, but he's become a real fan of that kind of stuff, I
[01:23:59.400 --> 01:24:00.400]  guess.
[01:24:00.400 --> 01:24:03.720]  But yeah, the bottom line is that it's not about that.
[01:24:03.720 --> 01:24:04.960]  It's not about protecting the children.
[01:24:04.960 --> 01:24:07.800]  The Republicans are trying to make that case.
[01:24:07.920 --> 01:24:11.960]  You need to realize that that's really not what the Republicans are addressing either.
[01:24:11.960 --> 01:24:16.160]  They're also on board with this other thing, because there's a lot of different ways that
[01:24:16.160 --> 01:24:19.600]  they could address that, and it's really a parental issue.
[01:24:19.600 --> 01:24:24.560]  There's a lot of different ways they could address that other than ending anonymity on
[01:24:24.560 --> 01:24:25.560]  the web.
[01:24:25.560 --> 01:24:26.560]  That is their goal.
[01:24:26.560 --> 01:24:28.360]  That is the goal of the World Economic Forum.
[01:24:28.360 --> 01:24:33.200]  I always think about it when we talk about the uni party and what you said there about
[01:24:33.200 --> 01:24:35.160]  people can't and won't see it.
[01:24:35.200 --> 01:24:40.680]  I've had people leave stuff on comments about the show or other things.
[01:24:40.680 --> 01:24:43.840]  Yeah, David is just, he hates everybody.
[01:24:43.840 --> 01:24:45.160]  It's like, I don't hate everybody.
[01:24:45.160 --> 01:24:47.800]  I hate what the uni party is doing.
[01:24:47.800 --> 01:24:51.840]  I'm trying to tell you that the Republican party is not your savior, the Democrat party
[01:24:51.840 --> 01:24:54.200]  is not your savior.
[01:24:54.200 --> 01:24:55.520]  It's both of them that are doing this.
[01:24:55.520 --> 01:24:57.520]  We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
[01:26:05.160 --> 01:26:34.640]  Making sense, coming again.
[01:26:34.640 --> 01:26:37.560]  You're listening to the David Knight Show.
[01:26:37.560 --> 01:26:38.560]  Elvis.
[01:26:38.560 --> 01:26:45.560]  Ladies and gentlemen, The Beatles.
[01:26:45.560 --> 01:26:50.080]  And the sweet sounds of Motown.
[01:26:50.080 --> 01:26:56.000]  Find them on the Oldies channel at APSradio.com.
[01:26:56.000 --> 01:27:00.960]  Well what we're just talking about in terms of people always thinking that, you know,
[01:27:00.960 --> 01:27:06.360]  there's this getting pushed into this false dichotomy, well, it's either this or that.
[01:27:06.360 --> 01:27:07.680]  And this is better than that.
[01:27:07.680 --> 01:27:11.680]  So I'm going to support this or whatever when they both might be evil.
[01:27:11.680 --> 01:27:17.440]  A good example of this, I think, is what's going on right now between Anthropic and their
[01:27:17.440 --> 01:27:22.320]  large language model that they call Claude and what is happening with OpenAI and their
[01:27:22.320 --> 01:27:27.160]  large language model, ChatGPT and what's going on with the Pentagon.
[01:27:27.160 --> 01:27:30.320]  And this is escalated over the last week.
[01:27:30.320 --> 01:27:38.000]  It was not even a week since the Pentagon, Pete and Trump said, oh, they're woke.
[01:27:38.000 --> 01:27:39.480]  I want them out of here.
[01:27:39.480 --> 01:27:45.720]  And I don't really know the background of this CEO or Anthropic that much.
[01:27:45.720 --> 01:27:48.680]  His name is Dario Modai, I guess.
[01:27:48.680 --> 01:27:50.240]  I don't know how to pronounce his last name.
[01:27:50.240 --> 01:27:51.240]  I haven't looked it up.
[01:27:51.240 --> 01:27:56.840]  Anyway, he's the one who is standing firm on these red lines that he said.
[01:27:56.880 --> 01:28:01.040]  And the way I see this happening is, to me, this is one of the few things that people
[01:28:01.040 --> 01:28:03.040]  can do right now.
[01:28:03.040 --> 01:28:07.360]  I think why this has gotten so large, one of the few things that a lot of people can
[01:28:07.360 --> 01:28:11.680]  do, they're frustrated with this war, they don't want to see this happening.
[01:28:11.680 --> 01:28:13.080]  What do you do to stop it?
[01:28:13.080 --> 01:28:17.000]  Well, one of the things they can do is identify somebody who's part of this military industrial
[01:28:17.000 --> 01:28:19.600]  complex and say, we don't want to have anything to do with that.
[01:28:19.600 --> 01:28:24.720]  So they're dropping OpenAI and ChatGPT like hot potato with this.
[01:28:24.720 --> 01:28:31.520]  So as part of this argument going back and forth, the CEO, Dario Modai, said it's about
[01:28:31.520 --> 01:28:34.320]  the principle of standing up for what's right.
[01:28:34.320 --> 01:28:36.120]  And he may be sticking to this.
[01:28:36.120 --> 01:28:38.280]  This may be something that is genuine.
[01:28:38.280 --> 01:28:40.800]  I don't know yet.
[01:28:40.800 --> 01:28:45.040]  They did found this company, they said, because they were concerned about the direction.
[01:28:45.040 --> 01:28:48.440]  I think it was maybe OpenAI was going.
[01:28:48.440 --> 01:28:49.880]  They were concerned about the direction it was going.
[01:28:49.880 --> 01:28:53.600]  So they started this company and said, we're going to have some, we're going to put out
[01:28:53.680 --> 01:28:55.720]  some principles here, things that we will not do.
[01:28:55.720 --> 01:28:58.320]  We will not become part of mass surveillance.
[01:28:58.320 --> 01:29:02.440]  We won't allow this to be used for autonomous killing machines.
[01:29:02.440 --> 01:29:07.280]  He said, it feels very punitive what is being done to us by the Trump administration and
[01:29:07.280 --> 01:29:12.160]  inappropriate, given the amount that we have done for US national security.
[01:29:12.160 --> 01:29:15.600]  That's why I say, you know, when you look at this, it was really, these are the guys
[01:29:15.600 --> 01:29:20.480]  that were doing the targeting and all the rest of the stuff along with Palantir.
[01:29:20.480 --> 01:29:26.480]  So I really kind of wonder where they are on these red lines.
[01:29:26.480 --> 01:29:31.600]  But even more troubling is we absolutely do know where the Pentagon is.
[01:29:31.600 --> 01:29:35.960]  We absolutely do know where Pentagon Pete is and where Trump is.
[01:29:35.960 --> 01:29:39.800]  They want to have mass surveillance by artificial intelligence.
[01:29:39.800 --> 01:29:40.800]  And it's not just this.
[01:29:40.800 --> 01:29:45.080]  We could see it before what they're pushing at the very first day that Trump is there.
[01:29:45.080 --> 01:29:51.160]  He pushes that mRNA poison that he's so proud of in conjunction with artificial intelligence.
[01:29:51.160 --> 01:29:56.960]  And then he last summer, as I just said, we're going to give immunity to artificial intelligence.
[01:29:56.960 --> 01:30:01.360]  You can't have any local or state laws that are going to shut down.
[01:30:01.360 --> 01:30:03.740]  Well, we'll see about that.
[01:30:03.740 --> 01:30:07.400]  People should take the same approach that Trump does and say, well, you know, we'll
[01:30:07.400 --> 01:30:11.140]  see about that because the Constitution is on our side.
[01:30:11.140 --> 01:30:16.700]  The 10th Amendment makes it clear that the states and the people are not dictated to
[01:30:16.700 --> 01:30:18.300]  by the federal government.
[01:30:18.300 --> 01:30:20.260]  We're the ones who created the federal government.
[01:30:20.260 --> 01:30:21.260]  States created the federal government.
[01:30:21.260 --> 01:30:24.980]  The people created the federal government according to the document that they swear
[01:30:24.980 --> 01:30:25.980]  to uphold.
[01:30:25.980 --> 01:30:33.260]  And so hold them to that and say, you are a creature of the states and of we the people,
[01:30:33.260 --> 01:30:37.060]  and you don't get to tell us what we can and cannot do.
[01:30:37.060 --> 01:30:40.460]  We have these two red lines, said Amadi.
[01:30:40.460 --> 01:30:43.820]  We had them from day one and we're still advocating for those red lines and we're not going to
[01:30:43.820 --> 01:30:45.700]  move away from them.
[01:30:45.700 --> 01:30:50.780]  Those red lines, well, they're red lines for the Pentagon as well.
[01:30:50.780 --> 01:30:56.300]  Pentagon says if you don't do mass surveillance of Americans, we're going to put you out of
[01:30:56.300 --> 01:30:57.300]  business.
[01:30:57.300 --> 01:31:01.180]  And if you don't help us with our autonomous killing machines, we're going to put you out
[01:31:01.180 --> 01:31:03.220]  of business.
[01:31:03.220 --> 01:31:09.340]  So it doesn't show the judgment that a human soldier would show, said Amadi, about AI in
[01:31:09.340 --> 01:31:14.620]  terms of automated killing machines, friendly fire or shooting a civilian or just the wrong
[01:31:14.620 --> 01:31:16.420]  kind of thing, he said.
[01:31:16.420 --> 01:31:20.700]  Yeah, but see, the thing is Warp Heat doesn't really care about that, does he?
[01:31:20.700 --> 01:31:24.300]  He doesn't care about machine gunning people who have been shipwrecked.
[01:31:24.300 --> 01:31:26.060]  Shipwrecked, why?
[01:31:26.060 --> 01:31:29.180]  Because of an unjust war that you started?
[01:31:29.180 --> 01:31:34.100]  These are red lines that the Trump administration has ignored for quite some time.
[01:31:34.100 --> 01:31:36.860]  They don't care what the Geneva Convention says.
[01:31:36.860 --> 01:31:39.900]  They don't care what the Pentagon rules say.
[01:31:39.900 --> 01:31:46.860]  They don't care what basic human decency and rules of morality say either.
[01:31:46.860 --> 01:31:52.060]  So Amadi says we don't want to sell something that we don't think is reliable.
[01:31:52.060 --> 01:31:55.740]  And we don't want to sell something that could get our own people killed or that could get
[01:31:55.740 --> 01:31:58.140]  innocent people killed.
[01:31:58.140 --> 01:32:04.740]  And so as a result of that, they are getting punished by Trump and Pete.
[01:32:04.740 --> 01:32:06.020]  They want to put them out of business.
[01:32:06.020 --> 01:32:13.740]  They want to say anybody that uses their product, you can't have anything to do with the federal
[01:32:13.740 --> 01:32:15.420]  government.
[01:32:15.420 --> 01:32:21.400]  And so the federal government now basically, that's the way that Biden was able to push
[01:32:21.400 --> 01:32:23.700]  out these mandates.
[01:32:23.700 --> 01:32:28.740]  Because virtually every company now, except for small mom and pop businesses, every company,
[01:32:28.740 --> 01:32:32.420]  if they're of any size, they're doing business with the federal government.
[01:32:32.420 --> 01:32:35.180]  That's one of the most lucrative businesses that you can have because they don't really
[01:32:35.180 --> 01:32:38.500]  care in terms of costs.
[01:32:38.500 --> 01:32:42.580]  So it's a rich customer that you want to have.
[01:32:42.580 --> 01:32:47.500]  And if they're not going to be your customer because you were doing business with Anthropic,
[01:32:47.500 --> 01:32:54.300]  then it's much, much bigger than this relatively small contract they have of $200 million.
[01:32:54.300 --> 01:32:57.060]  So Amadi says Anthropic plans to take legal action.
[01:32:57.060 --> 01:33:02.900]  He said, always seen so far as tweets from the president and from Secretary Hegseth.
[01:33:02.900 --> 01:33:07.980]  He said Anthropic remains at the negotiating table, hoping to talk, asked what he might
[01:33:07.980 --> 01:33:08.980]  say to Trump.
[01:33:08.980 --> 01:33:12.320]  Amadi said, we are patriotic Americans.
[01:33:12.320 --> 01:33:15.980]  Everything that we have done has been for the sake of this country, for the sake of
[01:33:15.980 --> 01:33:18.280]  supporting U.S. national security.
[01:33:18.280 --> 01:33:22.060]  We believe in defeating our autocratic adversaries.
[01:33:22.060 --> 01:33:24.860]  We believe in defending America.
[01:33:24.860 --> 01:33:29.020]  The red lines we have drawn, we drew because we believe that crossing those red lines is
[01:33:29.020 --> 01:33:31.460]  contrary to American values.
[01:33:31.460 --> 01:33:36.100]  Disagreeing with the government is the most American thing in the world.
[01:33:36.100 --> 01:33:37.760]  And we are patriots.
[01:33:37.760 --> 01:33:43.140]  And everything we have done here, we have stood up for the values of this country, he
[01:33:43.140 --> 01:33:44.140]  said.
[01:33:44.140 --> 01:33:52.300]  Well, Sam Altman immediately ingratiated himself and with the Pentagon to take their place.
[01:33:52.740 --> 01:33:58.800]  The blowback has been pretty significant in terms of people downloading the large language
[01:33:58.800 --> 01:34:04.780]  models or uninstalling the large language models on their devices.
[01:34:04.780 --> 01:34:12.520]  Anthropics' Claude jumped to number one in the App Store as users dropped chat GPT over
[01:34:12.520 --> 01:34:15.060]  what Sam Altman is doing.
[01:34:15.060 --> 01:34:18.600]  It's not every day that an AI app leapfrogs to number one in the App Store, especially
[01:34:18.600 --> 01:34:24.040]  when it's overtaking the category's biggest name, chat GPT.
[01:34:24.040 --> 01:34:29.400]  But that's exactly what happened when Anthropics' Claude climbed to the top of Apple's rankings
[01:34:29.400 --> 01:34:32.180]  edging out chat GPT.
[01:34:32.180 --> 01:34:37.400]  And so the response of damage control from Sam Altman is to come out and brag, oh, we're
[01:34:37.400 --> 01:34:42.480]  going to have red lines, too, yeah, right.
[01:34:42.480 --> 01:34:47.940]  OpenAI is amending the agreement to include language noting that we only do things that
[01:34:47.940 --> 01:34:49.980]  are consistent with applicable laws.
[01:34:49.980 --> 01:34:53.260]  Well, be careful because that doesn't like that.
[01:34:53.260 --> 01:34:57.900]  If you say don't do illegal orders, he's going to come after you.
[01:34:57.900 --> 01:34:58.900]  This guy just wants to kill.
[01:34:58.900 --> 01:35:03.060]  He wants to kill the rule of law first and foremost.
[01:35:03.060 --> 01:35:09.660]  And so he says, also, we will say that our AI models shall not be intentionally used
[01:35:09.660 --> 01:35:13.180]  for domestic surveillance of US persons and nationals.
[01:35:13.180 --> 01:35:15.340]  Notice that he put in there intentionally.
[01:35:16.340 --> 01:35:23.260]  Do you remember when James Clapper was asked by Ron Wyden, he said, are you spying on Americans
[01:35:23.260 --> 01:35:25.260]  without a search warrant?
[01:35:25.260 --> 01:35:31.180]  Well, Senator, not intentionally.
[01:35:31.180 --> 01:35:36.860]  That lying guy, that's what he's that's what Sam Altman is doing is, well, not intentionally.
[01:35:36.860 --> 01:35:38.220]  We're not doing it intentionally.
[01:35:38.220 --> 01:35:40.780]  No, it's intentional.
[01:35:40.780 --> 01:35:42.300]  He got in there.
[01:35:42.300 --> 01:35:49.580]  So you got a huge number of people not only getting clawed, but they are uninstalling
[01:35:49.580 --> 01:35:53.020]  chat GPT at a very, very rapid rate.
[01:35:53.020 --> 01:35:55.020]  Listen to this.
[01:35:55.020 --> 01:35:59.580]  He went into full damage control over the weekend because they signed this new agreement
[01:35:59.580 --> 01:36:03.740]  with the Pentagon to do what an ethical company would not do.
[01:36:03.740 --> 01:36:06.980]  He says, I'll do it.
[01:36:06.980 --> 01:36:12.380]  So people realize that he's an opportunist and he'll do whatever it takes.
[01:36:12.380 --> 01:36:16.420]  And so, of course, he's going to do mass surveillance for the Pentagon.
[01:36:16.420 --> 01:36:25.960]  So they have uninstall rates of open AI chat GPT spiked at 295% day over day.
[01:36:25.960 --> 01:36:28.700]  So the uninstall rate went up by 300%.
[01:36:28.700 --> 01:36:35.140]  Meanwhile, there are competition that said, we're not going to spy on Americans.
[01:36:35.140 --> 01:36:39.180]  Their competition shot up to number one in terms of downloaded apps.
[01:36:39.180 --> 01:36:41.060]  So it's pretty clear what's happening here.
[01:36:41.060 --> 01:36:45.440]  People are uninstalling chat GPT and installing open AI.
[01:36:45.440 --> 01:36:50.020]  And I think part of that is a pushback against this unpopular war.
[01:36:50.020 --> 01:36:54.860]  Well, a few things I guess that people can do, but they may also be worried about the
[01:36:54.860 --> 01:36:59.620]  Pentagon and the Machiavellian industrial complex.
[01:36:59.620 --> 01:37:05.340]  Now Altman is continuing his apology tour to her conceding in a lengthy tweet on Monday
[01:37:05.340 --> 01:37:10.340]  that he shouldn't have rushed in the Defense Department deal.
[01:37:10.340 --> 01:37:14.380]  He claimed that open AI would be altering the terms of the deal after the fact.
[01:37:14.380 --> 01:37:18.500]  And again, they're going to insert that word intentionally.
[01:37:18.500 --> 01:37:22.460]  What a deceptive guy anyway, he's out there trying to do damage control.
[01:37:22.460 --> 01:37:27.860]  I think that is an interesting fallout of all of this stuff.
[01:37:28.180 --> 01:37:32.740]  Meanwhile, let's look at the economics of war.
[01:37:32.740 --> 01:37:38.780]  Trump is offering, as I said earlier, he's offering to ensure and to provide the tankers
[01:37:38.780 --> 01:37:43.660]  as well as to provide military escorts for them as they go around and through the Strait
[01:37:43.660 --> 01:37:45.780]  of Hormuz.
[01:37:45.780 --> 01:37:52.560]  So Trump said the US will immediately offer political risk insurance and guarantees.
[01:37:52.560 --> 01:37:56.500]  Maybe we can all get the federal government to write us an insurance policy on nuclear
[01:37:56.500 --> 01:37:58.820]  power, how about that?
[01:37:58.820 --> 01:38:01.860]  That's excluded for most of these insurance policies.
[01:38:01.860 --> 01:38:07.740]  Maybe we could get the kind of insurance policies that Lucky Leutnick and what was the other
[01:38:07.740 --> 01:38:11.940]  guy's name that had building seven?
[01:38:11.940 --> 01:38:12.940]  Was it?
[01:38:12.940 --> 01:38:16.660]  I can't remember his name anyway.
[01:38:16.660 --> 01:38:18.740]  They named a little park after him that's there.
[01:38:18.740 --> 01:38:20.580]  He's still alive actually.
[01:38:20.580 --> 01:38:22.300]  And Sheldon something, wasn't it?
[01:38:22.300 --> 01:38:25.780]  Anyway, the two of them taking out big insurance policies.
[01:38:25.780 --> 01:38:29.620]  Maybe we could get them to take out some insurance policies on this stuff as well.
[01:38:29.620 --> 01:38:32.420]  You and I will be the underwriters on this stuff, of course.
[01:38:32.420 --> 01:38:33.420]  Just put it on the bill.
[01:38:33.420 --> 01:38:35.820]  It's only 40 trillion.
[01:38:35.820 --> 01:38:39.620]  Political risk insurance and guarantees for energy tankers and other ships in the Gulf
[01:38:39.620 --> 01:38:45.660]  region and that the Navy will escort tankers through the Strait of Hormuz if needed.
[01:38:45.660 --> 01:38:50.860]  Yeah, that won't be a dangerous and vulnerable thing for them to do, will it?
[01:38:50.860 --> 01:38:56.180]  So he created this policy and announced it on Truth Social.
[01:38:56.180 --> 01:39:00.460]  It's amazing, I guess.
[01:39:00.460 --> 01:39:05.460]  Jefferson, Madison, Franklin, none of these guys ever really envisioned that you'd have
[01:39:05.460 --> 01:39:11.060]  an autocrat single-handedly making all these decisions and putting them out on some kind
[01:39:11.060 --> 01:39:13.100]  of a thing called social media, right?
[01:39:13.100 --> 01:39:14.100]  Publishing it there.
[01:39:14.100 --> 01:39:18.660]  And if necessary, the US Navy will begin escorting tankers through the Strait of Hormuz as soon
[01:39:18.660 --> 01:39:20.700]  as possible, he said.
[01:39:20.700 --> 01:39:26.420]  No matter what, the US will ensure the free flow of energy to the world, all uppercase,
[01:39:26.420 --> 01:39:27.620]  right?
[01:39:27.620 --> 01:39:29.900]  Can you even guarantee that?
[01:39:29.900 --> 01:39:37.500]  Yeah, just like with the budget deficit and all the rest of the stuff, Trump is, as usual,
[01:39:37.500 --> 01:39:40.420]  he's writing checks that he can't cash.
[01:39:40.420 --> 01:39:43.420]  This, I guess, is how you bankrupt a casino.
[01:39:43.420 --> 01:39:46.700]  You don't really know what the odds are with anything that you're doing.
[01:39:47.180 --> 01:39:53.660]  TPNH and company said in a note earlier Tuesday that skyrocketing shipping at new all-time
[01:39:53.660 --> 01:39:57.840]  highs and insurance rates are a key reason why traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has
[01:39:57.840 --> 01:40:00.180]  largely ground to a halt.
[01:40:00.180 --> 01:40:04.700]  The conflict is pushing up crude oil and other energy commodity prices, already filtering
[01:40:04.700 --> 01:40:06.780]  down to US gasoline pumps.
[01:40:06.780 --> 01:40:13.720]  The nationwide average price for regular gasoline is $3.11 per gallon, 11 cent increase over
[01:40:13.720 --> 01:40:17.000]  yesterday per the AAA.
[01:40:17.000 --> 01:40:22.640]  Crude retreated back slightly over $80 per barrel Tuesday afternoon after hitting 85
[01:40:22.640 --> 01:40:26.880]  for the first time since 2024 earlier in the day.
[01:40:26.880 --> 01:40:31.800]  Meanwhile, we have tankers who are burning from the Strait of Hormuz to the Mediterranean
[01:40:31.800 --> 01:40:36.280]  Sea and a spillover of war risks.
[01:40:36.280 --> 01:40:45.120]  The Times of Malta reports that the Russian-flagged LNG tanker Arctic metagas, metagas, that's
[01:40:45.120 --> 01:40:48.880]  like gas, right, but it's an LNG tanker.
[01:40:48.880 --> 01:40:55.400]  Wouldn't want to be on an LNG tanker when a drone hits it, would you?
[01:40:55.400 --> 01:40:57.760]  It might not be an Arctic traveler anymore.
[01:40:57.760 --> 01:41:01.040]  It might be a little bit warm, I think, get tropical.
[01:41:01.040 --> 01:41:03.360]  Very warm, very fast.
[01:41:03.440 --> 01:41:09.600]  So identified as part of Russia's shadow fleet, it suffered an explosion while transiting
[01:41:09.600 --> 01:41:13.720]  the Mediterranean Sea between Malta and Libya.
[01:41:13.720 --> 01:41:19.160]  Multiple sources told a local paper that they experienced a series of explosions and that
[01:41:19.160 --> 01:41:26.000]  it was a cause of deflagration, indications that there was a huge explosion on board.
[01:41:26.000 --> 01:41:30.440]  They said the explosion was due to a drone attack.
[01:41:30.520 --> 01:41:35.880]  In a separate report, Reuters also says the LNG tanker may have been hit by a drone.
[01:41:35.880 --> 01:41:40.640]  The world is seemingly at war with the U.S.-Iran conflict choking the critical maritime Strait
[01:41:40.640 --> 01:41:42.280]  of Hormuz.
[01:41:42.280 --> 01:41:46.320]  Trump announced that the U.S. government will provide insurance for, quote, all maritime
[01:41:46.320 --> 01:41:52.120]  trade, unquote, through the U.S. Development Finance Corporation and will provide naval
[01:41:52.120 --> 01:41:56.640]  escorts in the Strait of Hormuz to ensure the waterways remain open.
[01:41:56.640 --> 01:42:00.000]  This will be a huge expense, folks.
[01:42:00.560 --> 01:42:04.840]  But when you look at the alternative, it's almost like this is an afterthought for him
[01:42:04.840 --> 01:42:05.840]  even.
[01:42:05.840 --> 01:42:11.600]  But when you look at the amount of traffic that goes through there, as I said before,
[01:42:11.600 --> 01:42:15.720]  compare 20% of the world's oil going through the Strait of Hormuz.
[01:42:15.720 --> 01:42:20.000]  Compare that to the trivial OPEC embargo.
[01:42:20.000 --> 01:42:22.420]  By comparison, it was trivial.
[01:42:22.420 --> 01:42:27.800]  It had humongous effects globally, especially here in America.
[01:42:27.800 --> 01:42:32.280]  But this has potential to be much, much bigger.
[01:42:32.280 --> 01:42:35.480]  So Hormuz is paralyzed.
[01:42:35.480 --> 01:42:37.560]  Another tanker has been hit.
[01:42:37.560 --> 01:42:41.240]  And we have a floating parking lot of ships.
[01:42:41.240 --> 01:42:47.080]  Again, these tankers are out in the open water for defense.
[01:42:47.080 --> 01:42:52.040]  What does that tell you when you're going to send in the Navy into this narrow area
[01:42:52.040 --> 01:42:53.040]  to navigate?
[01:42:53.880 --> 01:42:58.920]  It's going to be raising the risk significantly to the naval ships.
[01:42:58.920 --> 01:43:05.560]  Two days ago, the Iranian regime had 11 ships in the Gulf of Oman, bragged US Central Command.
[01:43:05.560 --> 01:43:07.720]  Today they have zero.
[01:43:07.720 --> 01:43:14.360]  The Iranian regime has harassed and attacked, and we've taken away their Navy.
[01:43:14.360 --> 01:43:21.040]  But they don't need to have a Navy to harass and attack these tankers.
[01:43:21.040 --> 01:43:22.040]  They have missiles.
[01:43:22.040 --> 01:43:24.000]  They have drones.
[01:43:24.000 --> 01:43:29.560]  And again, when you look at the math, US-made Patriot air defense missiles have been largely
[01:43:29.560 --> 01:43:35.080]  successful in stopping the Iranian Shahids and other ballistic missiles with interception
[01:43:35.080 --> 01:43:37.280]  rates of over 90%.
[01:43:37.280 --> 01:43:45.760]  However, you're using $4 million missiles to destroy $20,000 drones.
[01:43:45.760 --> 01:43:46.760]  That's a problem.
[01:43:46.760 --> 01:43:49.720]  You know, we've got all this money.
[01:43:49.720 --> 01:43:55.160]  We've got a wealthy country that they're now burning that up, you know, they're lighting
[01:43:55.160 --> 01:44:02.880]  their cigars with $1,000 bills, basically, and creating massive amounts of debt, a gigantic
[01:44:02.880 --> 01:44:04.640]  military budget.
[01:44:04.640 --> 01:44:10.400]  We are giving money and equipment to all these other countries so they can have wars.
[01:44:10.400 --> 01:44:15.160]  And we are using, you know, when we talk about asymmetric warfare, there's an economic aspect
[01:44:15.160 --> 01:44:16.160]  of that as well.
[01:44:16.720 --> 01:44:23.680]  Use a $4 million missile to take down a $20,000 drone.
[01:44:23.680 --> 01:44:32.080]  And then you're using these anti-ballistic missile systems that require three anti-missile
[01:44:32.080 --> 01:44:36.400]  missiles for each missile that you take down.
[01:44:36.400 --> 01:44:37.640]  They are expensive.
[01:44:37.640 --> 01:44:40.320]  They're more complicated to make.
[01:44:40.320 --> 01:44:44.560]  We've got ourselves on the wrong side of the equation here, don't you think?
[01:44:44.560 --> 01:44:46.760]  What's really going on with the Pentagon planners?
[01:44:46.760 --> 01:44:56.800]  This is an empire that is rotten and ready to collapse, financially as well as strategically.
[01:44:56.800 --> 01:44:58.280]  What's the strategy here?
[01:44:58.280 --> 01:45:00.680]  You know, what's the plan?
[01:45:00.680 --> 01:45:02.720]  They don't have one.
[01:45:02.720 --> 01:45:07.920]  So the Western military planners, quote unquote, yeah, the cheap weapons can chew up resources
[01:45:07.920 --> 01:45:10.560]  meant for much more complex threats.
[01:45:11.480 --> 01:45:16.040]  Yeah, they really haven't planned this thing through.
[01:45:16.040 --> 01:45:20.080]  Since the start of the war, the US has intercepted hundreds of ballistic missiles targeting US
[01:45:20.080 --> 01:45:22.880]  forces, our partners, and regional stability.
[01:45:22.880 --> 01:45:24.120]  The intercepts are a success.
[01:45:24.120 --> 01:45:28.520]  They prevent the missiles from striking their targets, but they also come at the cost of
[01:45:28.520 --> 01:45:33.680]  pricey, high-tech interceptors that are in very short supply.
[01:45:33.680 --> 01:45:37.400]  The length of the conflict is a factor in affecting how many interceptors will be needed.
[01:45:37.920 --> 01:45:40.000]  And it's currently unclear how long that'll last.
[01:45:41.520 --> 01:45:45.600]  You know, as they say, everybody's got a plan until you get punched in the face and then
[01:45:45.600 --> 01:45:46.520]  that all goes out the window.
[01:45:46.520 --> 01:45:51.160]  But these guys, before they even got punched in the face, didn't have a plan.
[01:45:51.160 --> 01:45:52.680]  They didn't have a way.
[01:45:52.680 --> 01:45:56.440]  They didn't have enough ammunition and allies to pull this thing off, really.
[01:45:57.040 --> 01:46:00.880]  I mean, it's, I'm looking at this and doesn't make any sense.
[01:46:00.880 --> 01:46:05.760]  Anyway, Trump has referred to this as a multi-week war, although the president said Monday that
[01:46:05.800 --> 01:46:08.360]  we're already substantially ahead of our time projections.
[01:46:09.360 --> 01:46:12.960]  Maybe they're ahead of their consumption of these missiles.
[01:46:12.960 --> 01:46:17.480]  Now, one of the things they say in terms of how this stuff matches up, I already talked
[01:46:17.480 --> 01:46:23.120]  about the production rates, 100 missiles per month versus six to seven interceptors.
[01:46:23.120 --> 01:46:25.760]  But you need two or three interceptors per missile.
[01:46:25.760 --> 01:46:28.600]  So they really need to keep this equal.
[01:46:28.600 --> 01:46:31.720]  They need to be producing about two or three hundred interceptors per month, which they're
[01:46:31.720 --> 01:46:32.640]  not doing.
[01:46:32.640 --> 01:46:40.520]  But Iran is estimated by Israel to have twenty five hundred ballistic missiles already.
[01:46:42.240 --> 01:46:46.920]  And we got seventy five hundred of these interceptors in storage, or maybe more, because
[01:46:46.920 --> 01:46:51.200]  we're going to be running that down at a much, much faster rate.
[01:46:52.760 --> 01:46:55.800]  And so production simply cannot keep pace with demand.
[01:46:56.520 --> 01:47:03.080]  Every theater from Europe, the Indo-Pacific and the Middle East has an acute need of more
[01:47:03.080 --> 01:47:05.320]  missile defense launchers, interceptors, and the U.S.
[01:47:05.320 --> 01:47:09.080]  is simply consuming them faster than it can replace them.
[01:47:11.000 --> 01:47:15.280]  And we are consuming everything in this country faster than it can be replaced.
[01:47:16.880 --> 01:47:21.360]  So, again, it's the three to one ratio that is really important about this.
[01:47:21.360 --> 01:47:27.360]  The U.S. fired about 150 FAD interceptors just last June to defend Israel during a 12
[01:47:27.360 --> 01:47:28.880]  day war against Iran.
[01:47:29.800 --> 01:47:34.240]  Those weapons are the highest end ground based missile defense system in the American
[01:47:34.240 --> 01:47:35.560]  inventory. That's what Trump was saying.
[01:47:35.560 --> 01:47:39.120]  Well, we're really good in terms of low and the mid high stuff.
[01:47:39.720 --> 01:47:41.320]  We just don't have the high end stuff.
[01:47:41.320 --> 01:47:43.720]  Well, that's the stuff that they were actually using the most.
[01:47:44.320 --> 01:47:51.320]  Each interceptor cost about fifteen million dollars, but only a few dozen were
[01:47:51.320 --> 01:47:52.800]  purchased last year.
[01:47:53.400 --> 01:47:55.000]  That's under the Trump administration.
[01:47:56.080 --> 01:48:01.160]  They were not purchasing these missiles, so they've been planning to do this, but they
[01:48:01.160 --> 01:48:04.560]  didn't want to buy the missiles that they were going to need to defend themselves.
[01:48:05.240 --> 01:48:07.200]  Again, we're being led by a ship of fools.
[01:48:07.200 --> 01:48:08.600]  It's crazy.
[01:48:09.280 --> 01:48:13.480]  The cost of firing hundreds of them, as well as other types of interceptors, is enormous.
[01:48:14.080 --> 01:48:17.800]  In April of 2024, Bloomberg reported that it probably cost Israel, as well as the
[01:48:17.840 --> 01:48:23.440]  American, British, French and Jordanian air forces, about one point one billion
[01:48:23.440 --> 01:48:27.400]  dollars to foil missile and drone attacks from Iran.
[01:48:28.240 --> 01:48:31.040]  And that was just for a few hours of work.
[01:48:32.040 --> 01:48:34.320]  This is going to be much larger.
[01:48:35.120 --> 01:48:38.240]  The U.S. and Israeli militaries will try to reduce the number of missiles and
[01:48:38.240 --> 01:48:42.480]  launchers that Iran had available and will try to kill top commanders to prevent
[01:48:42.480 --> 01:48:45.240]  their use. They have thousands of missiles and drones.
[01:48:45.800 --> 01:48:51.480]  This is now an all out war for their survival, but not for us, evidently, right?
[01:48:52.760 --> 01:48:56.560]  So Trump is angry at Spain, vows to cut off all trade with them.
[01:48:57.560 --> 01:49:01.600]  Very, very uncooperative over the base refusal for Iran attacks, he says.
[01:49:01.720 --> 01:49:08.440]  Again, more tariff tantrums, more ego politics, not geopolitics.
[01:49:09.200 --> 01:49:12.760]  Declaring that he was going to cut off all trade with Spain and denouncing Prime
[01:49:12.800 --> 01:49:17.080]  Minister Keir Starmer as no Winston Churchill.
[01:49:17.880 --> 01:49:22.080]  Trump became visibly angry during his sit down with German Chancellor Fred
[01:49:22.080 --> 01:49:27.640]  Mertz. He said they're going to have to have some explaining to do, right, Lucy?
[01:49:31.640 --> 01:49:33.920]  Trump became visibly angry during his sit down.
[01:49:34.360 --> 01:49:37.800]  He also had harsh words for Starmer showing a strain in the relationship with
[01:49:37.800 --> 01:49:41.880]  the UK. This is not Winston Churchill that we're dealing with, he said.
[01:49:42.960 --> 01:49:47.840]  This government does not believe in regime change from the skies, however, said
[01:49:47.840 --> 01:49:52.440]  Keir Starmer. And that is making him more popular, just like Claude.
[01:49:53.600 --> 01:49:57.680]  So Claude and Keir, Trump is so incredibly unpopular.
[01:49:57.720 --> 01:50:02.560]  This war is so incredibly unpopular that anybody that pushes back against it is
[01:50:02.560 --> 01:50:03.800]  going to be to their advantage.
[01:50:04.320 --> 01:50:05.880]  Marky Mark, thank you for the tip, he says.
[01:50:05.880 --> 01:50:11.160]  We now have the APKWS, a drone killing missile that costs about $30,000 each.
[01:50:11.160 --> 01:50:16.800]  Well, the British have been demonstrating a directed energy weapon that is
[01:50:16.800 --> 01:50:17.800]  really, really cheap.
[01:50:18.200 --> 01:50:20.320]  That would flip the advantage.
[01:50:20.440 --> 01:50:25.640]  That would put an end to the production issues if they deploy that.
[01:50:26.160 --> 01:50:30.600]  And it would also put an end to this asymmetric financial warfare that we're
[01:50:30.600 --> 01:50:31.600]  talking about as well.
[01:50:32.000 --> 01:50:33.680]  Things are going to change very, very rapidly.
[01:50:33.680 --> 01:50:34.840]  They always do during war.
[01:50:35.680 --> 01:50:40.880]  And the key issue, though, is not really about that.
[01:50:40.880 --> 01:50:47.680]  It gives us a glimpse into the preparation and forethought that went into this.
[01:50:47.720 --> 01:50:51.080]  They have been thinking about this and wanting to do this, but they haven't
[01:50:51.080 --> 01:50:53.360]  really laid the groundwork to accomplish it.
[01:50:53.360 --> 01:50:56.160]  They're going to have to improvise on the way.
[01:50:56.320 --> 01:50:57.600]  It wasn't sufficient planning.
[01:50:57.600 --> 01:51:00.280]  That's the key issue I think we can take away from this.
[01:51:00.880 --> 01:51:05.920]  And then, of course, there's also the issue of whether it is morally justified
[01:51:06.320 --> 01:51:09.360]  to start wars, which is what we're doing.
[01:51:10.320 --> 01:51:13.920]  So Trump has pushed back on Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, saying again,
[01:51:14.480 --> 01:51:15.640]  MAGA is Trump.
[01:51:15.960 --> 01:51:17.120]  I am MAGA.
[01:51:18.160 --> 01:51:19.080]  They are not MAGA.
[01:51:19.960 --> 01:51:22.880]  I said MAGA wants to see our country thrive and be safe.
[01:51:23.200 --> 01:51:24.720]  MAGA loves what I'm doing.
[01:51:24.960 --> 01:51:26.120]  Every aspect of it.
[01:51:27.720 --> 01:51:31.080]  Talking about Megyn Kelly said she was critical of me for years and I didn't lose.
[01:51:31.080 --> 01:51:36.280]  I won all three times by a lot, suggesting as he had previously that he would have a
[01:51:36.520 --> 01:51:40.200]  2021, 2020 reelection if it had not been rigged.
[01:51:41.680 --> 01:51:44.200]  He said, Megyn was opposed to me for years when I ran the first time and
[01:51:44.200 --> 01:51:44.960]  nothing stopped me.
[01:51:45.000 --> 01:51:48.360]  And so, you know, some people are against and they always come back.
[01:51:48.600 --> 01:51:52.320]  She came all the way back, but now I guess she maybe doesn't like the idea of
[01:51:52.320 --> 01:51:56.600]  this war, but I do because I have to keep nuclear weapons out of the
[01:51:56.600 --> 01:51:57.840]  hands of the Iranians.
[01:51:58.880 --> 01:52:01.000]  Trump said that Carlson can say whatever he wants.
[01:52:01.000 --> 01:52:02.440]  It has no impact on me.
[01:52:03.200 --> 01:52:09.800]  Well, all I can say is that, um, you know, I never had any interaction with, um,
[01:52:10.800 --> 01:52:12.240]  with Tucker Carlson personally.
[01:52:12.320 --> 01:52:18.040]  I did with Megyn Kelly when she went to info wars and, uh, I thought she was the,
[01:52:18.040 --> 01:52:23.720]  the essence of what you typically see with these celebrity model presenters.
[01:52:23.800 --> 01:52:28.000]  She hadn't a clue as to what was going on about anything she'd never even heard of
[01:52:28.000 --> 01:52:31.200]  and certainly didn't even care when I explained to her what civil asset
[01:52:31.240 --> 01:52:32.120]  forfeiture was.
[01:52:33.000 --> 01:52:35.840]  And she sat us down and interviewed us individually when she was
[01:52:35.840 --> 01:52:37.080]  doing the hit piece on Alex.
[01:52:37.680 --> 01:52:42.480]  And, um, you know, she asked me some questions about where I was on the stuff.
[01:52:42.480 --> 01:52:44.120]  I said, well, I certainly don't like Trump.
[01:52:44.800 --> 01:52:48.200]  And, um, and I gave that as the very first thing that came to mind because
[01:52:48.200 --> 01:52:54.840]  this was before 2020 and, um, she had never just, you know, blank slate, never
[01:52:54.840 --> 01:52:56.640]  heard of what's civil asset forfeiture.
[01:52:56.960 --> 01:52:58.240]  It's like, you're a lawyer.
[01:52:58.520 --> 01:52:59.760]  I think she's got a law degree.
[01:53:00.520 --> 01:53:01.480]  And she didn't know that.
[01:53:01.480 --> 01:53:06.320]  Well, in terms of the cluster munitions that were there, as I pointed out, people
[01:53:06.320 --> 01:53:13.080]  showing the incoming missiles that were there, and evidently this is a, uh, a
[01:53:13.080 --> 01:53:17.800]  real, um, a real video of what's happening, what happened in Jerusalem
[01:53:17.800 --> 01:53:22.600]  with an attack, this particular one right here, um, person wrote here, this
[01:53:22.600 --> 01:53:28.200]  is, uh, from Richard, um, Rick W E one, two, three, Israeli experts are now
[01:53:28.240 --> 01:53:30.720]  sounding the alarm Ronnie and cluster.
[01:53:30.720 --> 01:53:35.920]  Mistrels can split into as many as 80 sub missiles hitting
[01:53:35.920 --> 01:53:37.680]  multiple targets simultaneously.
[01:53:38.480 --> 01:53:40.560]  They're calling it an unprecedented weapon.
[01:53:41.360 --> 01:53:44.640]  The biggest question is how did Ron get his hands on such technology in a
[01:53:44.640 --> 01:53:47.040]  country where scientists are constantly being assassinated.
[01:53:47.760 --> 01:53:53.400]  It's hard to ignore the possibility that China and Russia, um, handed
[01:53:53.400 --> 01:53:56.520]  this deadly know-how straight to Tehran.
[01:53:57.400 --> 01:53:59.760]  Well, you know, we talked about before this happened, we talked about their
[01:53:59.760 --> 01:54:04.760]  ship killing missile that was supersonic that China had travels right over the
[01:54:04.760 --> 01:54:09.240]  surface of the water at supersonic sounds, and then does a zigzagging
[01:54:09.240 --> 01:54:10.760]  approach just before it hits the target.
[01:54:11.440 --> 01:54:14.720]  They had been working since Trump attacked them last summer.
[01:54:14.720 --> 01:54:19.320]  They had been working to secure those from China, uh, not clear whether
[01:54:19.320 --> 01:54:24.880]  or not they got those, uh, before Trump attacked again, the timing of the
[01:54:24.880 --> 01:54:28.680]  attack was dictated by Netanyahu, not about readiness.
[01:54:29.240 --> 01:54:31.600]  And so it's really not clear whether they have those yet or
[01:54:31.600 --> 01:54:32.960]  whether they will acquire them.
[01:54:33.720 --> 01:54:36.080]  We will have to wait and see what happens with it.
[01:54:36.360 --> 01:54:37.160]  We're going to take a quick break.
[01:54:37.160 --> 01:54:38.400]  Folks will be right back.
[01:55:24.880 --> 01:55:29.320]  You're listening to the David Knight show, whether you're feeling like the
[01:55:29.320 --> 01:55:36.320]  blues or blue grass, APS radio has you covered, check out a wide variety of
[01:55:36.320 --> 01:55:39.400]  channels on our app at apsradio.com.
[01:55:41.800 --> 01:55:45.960]  Well, one of the dumbest and most dishonest of the Trump regime was
[01:55:45.960 --> 01:55:50.680]  taking incoming fire yesterday and, uh, taking it from her own side.
[01:55:50.680 --> 01:55:51.800]  It was friendly fire.
[01:55:52.040 --> 01:55:52.960]  Supposedly it's coming.
[01:55:52.960 --> 01:55:56.600]  Some of the hardest questions came from Republicans of Kristi Noem.
[01:55:57.320 --> 01:56:01.840]  Uh, she did not retract calling us citizens that were killed by the ice agents.
[01:56:01.840 --> 01:56:03.400]  She called them domestic terrorists.
[01:56:03.400 --> 01:56:05.280]  She didn't, would not take that back.
[01:56:05.280 --> 01:56:08.240]  They came after her for a number of things.
[01:56:08.240 --> 01:56:14.120]  And, uh, again, uh, she, like Trump doesn't shy away from telling
[01:56:14.120 --> 01:56:17.840]  people full face lies for which video exists.
[01:56:18.160 --> 01:56:23.720]  Dick Durbin pressed her on why, uh, Renee good and Alex pretty or falsely
[01:56:23.720 --> 01:56:25.760]  labeled as domestic terrorists following their killing.
[01:56:26.560 --> 01:56:29.520]  She didn't take back the statements about them, but she said that the
[01:56:29.520 --> 01:56:33.880]  ice officers face a quote, dangerous environment, unquote, and threats.
[01:56:34.400 --> 01:56:37.880]  When asked what information she got to deem them as domestic terrorists.
[01:56:38.280 --> 01:56:42.080]  She said her agency relied on information provided by agents on the ground.
[01:56:42.760 --> 01:56:46.760]  And, uh, so, uh, they came after her for a number of issues.
[01:56:46.760 --> 01:56:50.760]  And by the way, you know, the spokesperson who was always, uh, making
[01:56:50.760 --> 01:56:53.360]  these absurd statements as well.
[01:56:53.880 --> 01:56:57.920]  It turns out that her family is involved in a little bit of corruption.
[01:56:57.920 --> 01:56:59.920]  And that was also exposed in these areas.
[01:56:59.920 --> 01:57:02.120]  You must find that that's the wrong one.
[01:57:02.120 --> 01:57:02.400]  Sorry.
[01:57:02.880 --> 01:57:06.960]  U S government website that says that contract for $143 million
[01:57:06.960 --> 01:57:08.960]  dollars was a no bid contract.
[01:57:10.160 --> 01:57:16.480]  Public documentation says the contract of $143 million dollars went to
[01:57:16.920 --> 01:57:22.600]  this, the safe America company created 11 days before they got an award.
[01:57:23.840 --> 01:57:29.760]  That company then subcontracted with the strategy group and you are familiar
[01:57:29.760 --> 01:57:32.880]  with many of the principles in the strategy group, correct?
[01:57:33.920 --> 01:57:36.360]  I know one of them, Mr.
[01:57:36.360 --> 01:57:36.840]  Yoho.
[01:57:36.920 --> 01:57:37.320]  Yes.
[01:57:37.400 --> 01:57:39.520]  And let me show you a photograph.
[01:57:39.880 --> 01:57:42.080]  That's Yoho standing next to you.
[01:57:42.080 --> 01:57:42.560]  Correct?
[01:57:42.800 --> 01:57:43.240]  Yes.
[01:57:43.680 --> 01:57:44.240]  Now, Mr.
[01:57:44.240 --> 01:57:49.920]  Yoho is also the husband of your former, uh, spokesperson.
[01:57:50.520 --> 01:57:51.360]  Is that correct?
[01:57:51.720 --> 01:57:51.920]  Yeah.
[01:57:51.920 --> 01:57:53.400]  She was telling one lie after the other.
[01:57:53.680 --> 01:57:54.120]  Yes.
[01:57:54.160 --> 01:57:54.800]  Trisha McGlock.
[01:57:54.800 --> 01:58:01.920]  So your former secretary, your former assistant secretary and her husband are
[01:58:01.920 --> 01:58:09.360]  the ones that got the subcontract from safe America or from, from the, from
[01:58:09.360 --> 01:58:11.920]  safe America, that's what the record shows.
[01:58:11.920 --> 01:58:13.120]  Any dispute about that?
[01:58:13.880 --> 01:58:19.880]  No, except there was no politicals myself or anyone else besides career employees
[01:58:19.880 --> 01:58:25.240]  who are a part of that process, putting up those contracts and choosing those vendors.
[01:58:25.560 --> 01:58:27.760]  It was just a, uh, choosing those vendors.
[01:58:27.760 --> 01:58:30.040]  I mean, this is the company that was put together 11 days before you
[01:58:30.040 --> 01:58:33.760]  awarded the contract and it happens to be run by the husband of the woman
[01:58:33.760 --> 01:58:36.280]  who was your chief liar and spokesperson who was there.
[01:58:36.760 --> 01:58:40.600]  Don't tell me they don't pay them well for lying and stuff, but of course
[01:58:40.600 --> 01:58:41.640]  there are other things as well.
[01:58:41.840 --> 01:58:43.760]  You had, uh, one of the guys hold up.
[01:58:43.760 --> 01:58:45.440]  There was on, um, a lot of media.
[01:58:45.440 --> 01:58:47.280]  They're showing the mile high club.
[01:58:47.480 --> 01:58:49.960]  She's got this luxury jet that she flies around with.
[01:58:49.960 --> 01:58:54.760]  Of course, the, uh, all of the talk about her and Corey Lewandowski, they've
[01:58:54.760 --> 01:58:58.040]  got a massive bed in this luxury jet.
[01:58:58.240 --> 01:59:00.160]  Oh, well we just, we're going to be fixing it up.
[01:59:00.160 --> 01:59:01.440]  You know, it's a fixer upper.
[01:59:02.080 --> 01:59:03.880]  And then you've got Tom Tillis.
[01:59:04.400 --> 01:59:06.240]  He says, I'm going to get answers from her.
[01:59:06.240 --> 01:59:07.400]  He wants her out of there.
[01:59:07.800 --> 01:59:11.440]  Tom Tillis is a Republican congressman from North Carolina.
[01:59:12.440 --> 01:59:15.920]  I never liked Tom Tillis because of his toll road taxes that he put in.
[01:59:16.360 --> 01:59:19.920]  Uh, but, uh, Tom Tillis is after Christine Holm.
[01:59:20.120 --> 01:59:23.160]  He says he's going to basically shut down the Senate.
[01:59:23.240 --> 01:59:26.120]  And of course, according to the rules, one Senator can do that.
[01:59:26.600 --> 01:59:29.400]  You know, they can refuse to allow them to move forward.
[01:59:29.840 --> 01:59:31.720]  He's going to block various committees and everything.
[01:59:31.720 --> 01:59:35.080]  If he doesn't get that and, and he's not the only Republican
[01:59:35.080 --> 01:59:36.080]  that was after her either.
[01:59:36.720 --> 01:59:39.880]  You had Senator Kennedy from Louisiana was coming after over
[01:59:39.880 --> 01:59:43.440]  the, the whoppers that she was telling one after the other.
[01:59:44.000 --> 01:59:46.280]  Uh, it was an interesting thing to see.
[01:59:47.120 --> 01:59:47.920]  Uh, he scolded her.
[01:59:47.920 --> 01:59:48.920]  He said, terribly awkward.
[01:59:49.240 --> 01:59:57.160]  Uh, you spent $220 million on DHS ads that featured you in this vanity
[01:59:57.160 --> 01:59:59.880]  product project, and that's what Kennedy was saying.
[01:59:59.880 --> 02:00:00.720]  Well, that's it for today.
[02:00:00.720 --> 02:00:01.840]  Thank you for joining us.
[02:00:06.080 --> 02:00:13.000]  The common man.
[02:00:16.320 --> 02:00:18.920]  They created common core, a dumb down our children.
[02:00:19.360 --> 02:00:22.280]  They created common past to track and control us.
[02:00:22.520 --> 02:00:26.480]  Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing
[02:00:27.400 --> 02:00:28.920]  and the communist future.
[02:00:30.360 --> 02:00:35.520]  They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary, but each
[02:00:35.520 --> 02:00:39.440]  of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
[02:00:41.680 --> 02:00:43.080]  That is what we have in common.
[02:00:43.680 --> 02:00:45.360]  That is what they want to take away.
[02:00:46.200 --> 02:00:50.520]  The most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
[02:00:51.280 --> 02:00:55.960]  They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
[02:00:56.840 --> 02:01:00.480]  It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
