Episode 2006： Biden Prostrates Himself In Front Of Saudi Throne After Fist Bumping MBS; Ken Griffin Strokes Desantis 10 Million Dollars; Death At The Border; The Heat Seeking Missile That Is Paladino
Joe Biden's fist bump in the middle of the Middle East humiliates the world, and the world laughs at him. Steve and John try to figure out how to get over the fact that the world is laughing at us too.
00:01:46.000He comes out today and says afterwards it was the most humiliating thing they've seen because it showed a degree of intimacy and acceptability that MBS has been looking for.
00:01:58.000And then MBS has got the smirk to show the world, not just Saudi people show the world.
00:02:21.000How, Boris, how could you possibly go to the Middle East, to the House of Saud and essentially prostate yourself, do the fist bump, and let the Saudis mock you, let MBS mock you, Boris Epstein?
00:02:36.000It speaks exactly to who Joe Biden is.
00:02:41.000It's a feckless, illegitimate, weak excuse for a little bit.
00:04:18.000That's because they went in business with the Saudis.
00:04:21.000Here, the media still fawns except when it's so in your grill.
00:04:27.000Can you believe he fist bumped MBS given everything, all the issues we have on the table, ma'am?
00:04:34.000Yeah, actually, I can because he needs MBS desperately for the U.S. economy.
00:04:40.000He needs MBS and the Saudi regime to pump more oil, get more oil on the world market in order to bring down gas prices.
00:04:48.000And it's completely unnecessary, as we know, Steve, because the United States sits atop more energy resources than any other country on the face of the earth,
00:04:56.000including Saudi Arabia, including Russia, including Venezuela.
00:05:00.000So all of this groveling is completely unnecessary.
00:05:04.000It's a humiliation of the United States of America, but it's also a direct humiliation of the president of the United States,
00:05:11.000who talked now for a couple of years since the murder of Khashoggi, saying they're going to be a pariah state in my administration.
00:05:18.000And now he's out there doing a fist bump, which, by the way, symbolically, Steve, is a much more intimate gesture than a handshake.
00:05:26.000So he might as well just have embraced MBS there because he's in he's in economic desperate straits here in the United States.
00:05:34.000Gas prices, inflation, all a huge drag on his presidency and on the Democrats.
00:05:39.000And so he now has put himself in the position of groveling to MBS.
00:05:44.000Monica, we can't get to the bottom of inflation, the economy, the meltdown or even help Europe until we get to the bottom of energy.
00:05:51.000When you were at the Treasury with President Trump, we were full spec.
00:05:56.000We weren't energy independent. We were full spectrum energy dominant.
00:05:59.000Right. They got this radical ideology now of, you know, a Green New Deal, green sustainability.
00:06:07.000Of course, Joe Manchin, the breaking news of the days, he blew that part up.
00:06:10.000They're trying to race to do some something on health care, spend more money, money we don't have.
00:06:14.000We're just going to have to print out of at a Treasury.
00:06:17.000But why can't and why this even seems like the Republicans, why are we not holding them accountable?
00:06:23.000Because they've embraced this radical ideology that refuses and looks the other way at everything regarding American energy resources to be to exploit ourselves.
00:06:33.000But want to go to Caracas on bended knee, go to Riyadh on bended knee, go to Tehran on bended knee, even go to Qatar, no good guys there on bended knee, and even, you know, have the Russians, empower the Russians and make the Russian oligarchs wealthier than ever.
00:06:49.000I don't understand how this can go on when we sit on three Saudi Arabias, the one in Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, Ohio, the one in the Permian Basin and the one up in Alaska.
00:06:59.000Three Saudi Arabias. Divine Providence has made sure that America has three Saudi Arabias, ma'am.
00:07:07.000Yeah. So the thing that everybody needs to understand, and they all do because they watch you every day and hopefully listen to my podcast as well.
00:07:15.000But the thing that everybody needs to know is that this is purely intentional.
00:07:19.000And there are a couple of things going on here.
00:07:21.000Number one, the Democrat communists essentially believe that America is not worthy of superpower status militarily, economically, politically, culturally.
00:07:31.000So they do everything in their power when they are in positions of authority to take down the United States in terms of being a superpower.
00:07:38.000That's number one. Number two, when we talk specifically about energy, Steve, what everybody needs to understand is that, yes, the Democrat communists constantly talk about the Green New Deal and their concern for the environment and climate.
00:07:53.000And maybe as a top line issue, there is some concern there on their part.
00:07:58.000But that's not what's really driving them here.
00:08:01.000The real motivation for them in attacking American energy production domestically is that they all understand that energy is the biggest lever available to them to re-engineer the U.S. economy away from economic freedom and free market capitalism and toward a neo-Marxist.
00:08:24.000So while they attack small businesses and they attack big corporations and they try to control them through ESG and all of this other nonsense, energy is the biggest of them all.
00:08:36.000And it is the fastest lever as well as the biggest one that they can leverage in order to remake the U.S. economy, the fundamental transformation of the nation.
00:08:46.000So they are constantly having that under attack.
00:08:49.000But they also realize they need a little bit of a stopgap measure before they can get us to this transformation.
00:08:55.000And that's why Biden is out there, hat in hand, begging the Saudis, begging the Venezuelans, all of America's enemies, all of these hostile regimes to try to up their output to get us through this period of time.
00:09:10.000They talk about this painful transition as if it's a great thing, because in their mind, Steve, they constantly have their eyes on the prize and their eyes are on that prize of the fundamental transformation of the nation.
00:09:25.000If we, how would you recommend, because you're a messaging expert, how would you recommend we both message this and line up policies about this for the midterm elections, ma'am?
00:09:39.000I don't see a lot of Republicans with a lot of coordinated messaging on this, and I think they better get that really fast because we're less than four months away from the midterm elections.
00:09:49.000They need to be focused solely on the overall state of the economy, which has weakened tremendously under Joe Biden and unified Democratic control in Washington.
00:10:00.000They need to focus on that aspect as well. This this whole inflationary explosion is due to their out of control spending, as well as a Fed that has been a year and a half too late in terms of raising interest rates and starting to draw down monthly asset purchases.
00:10:17.000But if I were Republicans, I would focus my fire solely on the Democrats total control in Washington.
00:10:24.000They were handed by President Trump the fastest economic recovery from any crisis on record, Steve.
00:10:30.000And look at what they've done with it in the last year and a half.
00:10:33.000They've completely destroyed it through out of control spending, creating this inflationary environment where we're all suffering.
00:10:41.000There are attacks on American energy so that you're paying through the nose for gas.
00:10:47.000I would focus my energy almost solely on the economy.
00:10:51.000And also I've raised the open border as well.
00:10:53.000But keep it to two or three issues that directly affect the American people.
00:11:06.000Because to most Americans, when you look at these polls, nothing else matters, not Ukraine, not not even China's like a distant fourth or fifth or sixth issue on these polls.
00:11:18.000You focus on the issues that are directly affecting the American people every day, the economic insecurity and the economic pain.
00:11:25.000And you will win this election in a walk.
00:11:27.000Monica, how do people get your shows on fire?
00:12:48.000Yeah, we're in the final two and a half week sprint of the race in Kansas.
00:12:52.000The race for attorney general is an important one because if I get in there, I'll be bringing lawsuits against Joe Biden on behalf of Kansans, but they will affect all Americans on everything from the trans agenda in school to the open border to the vaccine mandates.
00:13:07.000And, of course, as you mentioned, the Kansas is the first statewide vote on the abortion issue since the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
00:13:16.000And so that's a huge issue out here as well.
00:13:19.000Signs in in yards all over the state saying, vote yes, vote no, as well as the candidate signs.
00:13:24.000So the politics are on fire here right now.
00:13:38.000One is that if Kansas votes no and does not restore the right of the legislature to restrict or control and regulate abortion.
00:13:48.000Right now, the Kansas Supreme Court has invented an invisible right to an abortion in the state constitution.
00:13:54.000If the if the vote yes campaign fails and the vote no campaign wins, Kansas will become an abortion oasis, a go to state for abortion throughout the Midwest.
00:14:05.000So the pro-abortion forces want that, because if abortion is restricted in Texas, as it is in Missouri, Oklahoma, then they want to create a destination state for abortions.
00:14:16.000And and unfortunately, they're trying to do that to our home state in Kansas.
00:15:01.000When your nation's supposed authority on economic policy completely misses the flashing red lights of impending inflation.
00:15:10.000Now, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has finally admitted, quote,
00:15:14.000There's been an unanticipated and large shocks to the economy that have boosted energy and food prices and supply bottlenecks that affected our economy badly that I didn't at the time fully understand.
00:17:20.000Kobach, what are the one or two biggest issues for folks in Kansas as regards to the Attorney General race, sir?
00:17:29.000I would say, Steve, probably the number one issue is the fuel prices and inflation.
00:17:35.000And, you know, it affects all the races.
00:17:37.000And one of the things the Attorney General can do if they have the backbone is they can bring lawsuits against the illegal Biden policies, such as shutting down drilling, such as shutting down the Keystone XL pipeline.
00:17:48.000They're also threatening to cut off drilling in Kansas by regulating a certain species, believe it or not, the prairie chicken.
00:17:56.000They tried doing this under the Obama administration and cut off drilling in the western third of the state.
00:18:00.000So that's probably the number one issue, inflation and oil prices.
00:18:03.000And number two is probably abortion just because of the issue on the ballot.
00:18:08.000And it's going to be up to the next Attorney General to restore Kansas' pro-life laws as quickly as possible after the people hopefully vote yes on the amendment concerning life.
00:18:19.000Chris, we're going to go in the next hour live to The Hague about these farmers in Holland who almost are the second most productive farmers in the world.
00:18:29.000In fact, with Little Netherlands, I think they're the second biggest food exporter outside the United States, given how important, how central is Kansas in agriculture.
00:18:37.000And these guys are being driven out of business because of these crazy environmental laws, all getting back to energy and all getting back to fertilizer and nitrogen and all that.
00:18:46.000What could you do? Is that pressure? Do you see that pressure coming to the farmers in Kansas?
00:18:51.000Are the farmers in Kansas under pressure from the radicals in the Obama administration and also the Democrats on Capitol Hill that literally want to destroy farmers in this country, sir?
00:19:03.000There certainly is the pressure on diesel prices and on fertilizer prices.
00:19:08.000And actually, Steve, we have we live on a small farm and, you know, it's not our sole source of income or anything like that.
00:19:14.000But we see the prices and the effect on farming ourselves personally in our pocketbook.
00:19:18.000So I would not I'd say it's not like it is in Netherlands where you've got an all out of salt on farming based on some radical left green agenda.
00:19:25.000But you do see farming really stretched thin because the prices are just off, you know, off the charts.
00:19:32.000And that's going to be affected. That's going to affect the price of the grocery store in the months down the road.
00:19:37.000So farming is definitely feeling the pressure of the Biden policies as well.
00:19:41.000So I sure hope we never face anything like the Netherlands is seeing, though, because you would see you would see pitchforks and revolution among states like Kansas where farming is such an important part of our economy.
00:19:53.000Thank God. Well, I said, why why is Kansas given the you know, the the nature of people in Kansas to kind of hardworking salt of the earth religious?
00:20:05.000Why are they why are the Democrats singled out Kansas for the abortion issue?
00:20:10.000Well, you know, I look, as I mentioned, the previous segment, they want to make Kansas a destination state.
00:20:16.000They the other thing is Kansas is relatively a relatively cheap media state.
00:20:20.000So the cost of winning a referendum in Kansas is much less than the cost of, say, winning a constitutional referendum in Colorado or in you pick some of the states with the larger metro areas.
00:20:32.000So the out of state money can can gain more traction and achieve more in Kansas than it can in other places.
00:20:39.000So I think those are the two main reasons the pro abortion forces have focused so much attention on Kansas.
00:20:46.000By the way, you're one of the individual quickly, just can you give your legal background, your training in the university you went to?
00:20:52.000I remember President Trump was just blown away by your your academic credentials.
00:20:55.000Can you just walk the audience through? But yeah, I graduate.
00:20:59.000Yeah, sure. I graduated from college at Harvard, the top of my class in government.
00:21:04.000And then I went to law school at Yale and also got a doctorate from Oxford University in England.
00:21:09.000Not too shabby, as President Trump would say, how do people look?
00:21:14.000Look, you're beloved by this audience, given what you've done to support the sheriffs down in the in the in South Texas,
00:21:20.000in the River Grand Valley and your your great fight to make sure that we're not an open borders nation,
00:21:25.000because every every state's a border state, every every town's a border town.
00:21:29.000So you're beloved by this audience. People want to know how can they support your campaign?
00:22:56.000Wow. Going after the gas station guys. Oh, my God.
00:23:00.000The guys hate it throughout the country. Let's face it. It's gone from you don't have these kind of numbers if you're not detested.
00:23:05.000He's detested. I think one of the reasons he's detested and I don't care if little Jamie Raskin and Shifty Shift and Benny Thompson.
00:23:12.000He's he was never elected president United States. Sorry.
00:23:16.000You first they couldn't had these numbers.
00:23:18.000These numbers are these numbers are so low as the mathematically impossible unless a group of people didn't vote for you and certainly didn't get a one million votes.
00:23:28.00081 million votes. That's a joke. And don't anybody insult their intelligence by trying to push that Boris Epstein.
00:23:34.000No doubt about it. And I mean, also, he looks so terrible.
00:23:37.000I mean, I know it's it was late in the Middle East, but it's whoever is, you know, working with with with Joe Biden.
00:23:44.000I'm begging begging just do a little better. OK, and we know he's illegitimate.
00:23:51.000We know he doesn't have any of his faculties left. But, hey, to his handlers, that's still a guy illegitimate.
00:23:58.000But still the guy representing America across the world. And today was an embarrassment.
00:24:03.000That fist bump. That was an embarrassment. What is that?
00:24:06.000You know, are you are you the the even illegitimate but president United States or are you just some guy on a business trip?
00:24:14.000What are you doing fist bump? OK, just and by the way, this is supposed to be somebody you call the pariah.
00:24:21.000And now you're obviously sucking up to. I thought Monica Crowley made a good point.
00:24:24.000Could have just given the guy a big hug, which, by the way, he gave a boss a bit about a boss of the PLO a huge hug.
00:24:30.000Oh, hey, the worldwide known terrorist. Hey, you hate the Jews. Let me give you a big old hug.
00:24:36.000Joe Biden is right now on likely the worst international trip in the history of America.
00:24:42.000I'm really at, you know, in a tough moment to find a worse one.
00:24:47.000Because think about what happened when President Trump went overseas.
00:24:50.000You were there for that beginning key trip. Think about what happened.
00:24:54.000He came across with strength. He came across with power.
00:24:58.000He conveyed American prestige and American excellence.
00:25:04.000Joe Biden does the opposite. He had no idea what's going on.
00:25:07.000Gas prices. Oh, a couple of weeks. And oh, yeah, let's blame the little guy.
00:25:11.000Let's blame the gas station owners. Absolutely pathetic.
00:25:14.000And again, underscoring why Joe Biden is barely now, barely in the double digits in the teens in his approval rating.
00:25:22.000And let's not forget that whole big one percent with young people.
00:25:27.000Well, Trump goes over and gets Trump goes over and gets a huge deal.
00:25:30.000They're going to stop terrorism. We're going to do all this. I mean, it's power.
00:25:33.000Then he goes to Israel. Then he goes to Rome. That was a power move.
00:25:36.000This is so you're over there and bent a knee and you prostrate yourself.
00:25:39.000Look, we got Frank Gaffney on in the next hour.
00:25:42.000We're going to talk about Ukraine. And now all the countries in Europe are imploding because of it.
00:25:46.000But we also got Frank on to talk about the Iran situation.
00:25:49.000I mean, you got it. How close are Iran to a nuclear weapon?
00:25:53.000I mean, it's only an existential threat to the entire area.
00:25:55.000I mean, this thing with Biden is so bad.
00:25:57.000But I got to ask you about I want to ask you about this.
00:26:01.000The Ron DeSantis today. And we've been very positive on DeSantis.
00:26:04.000Of course, some of the left wing media sitting in Cortez and Boris Epstein and Bannon are going off on Ron DeSantis.
00:26:10.000We're not going off on Governor DeSantis.
00:27:19.000So, yes, 10 million dollars from Ken Griffin, a known about never Trumper.
00:27:23.000But over 20 percent from from donors outside, outside of the state of Florida for a Florida only only race and a lot of money from big corporations, including big pharma, big health care, HCA and others.
