Rebel News Podcast - Trump's triumphant speech at Davos shows the world how to act like a leader

00:00:00.000 Hey there, today I've got a podcast I think you're going to like, mainly because I don't

00:00:04.580 do most of the talking.

00:00:06.200 Donald Trump does.

00:00:07.080 I want to show you his speech that he gave at the Davos World Economic Forum the other

00:00:11.740 day, and I bet you have not heard this speech anywhere because why on earth would the media

00:00:16.560 want to show it to you?

00:00:17.600 I mean, it's actually a great speech, which is why they don't want to show it to you.

00:00:22.480 I give you my thoughts in between various segments.

00:00:25.520 I'd encourage you to become a premium subscriber.

00:00:27.540 You get the video version.

00:00:29.740 Just go to premium.rebelnews.com, and it's basically this podcast with me and visual

00:00:36.100 elements, clips, audio charts, stuff like that, and of course I interview a guest every day

00:00:41.480 as you know.

00:00:42.780 You also get Sheila Gunn-Reed's show and David Menzies' show, so I think it's well worth the

00:00:46.380 eight bucks a month.

00:00:47.380 That's premium.rebelnews.com.

00:00:50.340 Okay, here's the podcast.

00:00:55.920 You're listening to a Rebel News podcast.

00:00:59.040 Tonight, Donald Trump goes to Davos and does his job talking about America's economy,

00:01:12.480 not about his socks.

00:01:14.200 It's January 23rd, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.

00:01:17.080 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:22.860 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.

00:01:26.920 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody

00:01:31.800 right to do so.

00:01:32.780 Every January, the world's business elites gather in the town of Davos, Switzerland, for a giant

00:01:44.680 jamboree of wealth and power called the World Economic Forum.

00:01:49.280 Billionaires go there, corporate tycoons, but also politicians and other grifters, schemers,

00:01:55.300 charlatans, of course.

00:01:56.320 They smell the wealth and the power and want to get in on it.

00:01:59.860 Just months after Trudeau was elected in late 2015, he went to Davos.

00:02:05.540 Here's a picture of that meeting with George Soros there.

00:02:08.560 It's a Soros kind of place.

00:02:10.440 Look at how Trudeau was sitting and how Soros was sitting.

00:02:14.040 You know who the boss in that picture is.

00:02:17.140 I remember that super gross trip.

00:02:19.500 The CBC was even worse than Trudeau himself.

00:02:21.820 They assigned Aaron Wherry to do stories about Justin Trudeau's socks.

00:02:28.540 I'm not kidding.

00:02:29.220 Look at this.

00:02:29.820 Imagine going to journalism school, getting hired by a media company and being assigned

00:02:33.640 to cover the prime minister's socks.

00:02:36.340 That's North Korea-style state broadcaster cult behavior. 0.77

00:02:40.160 That's super gross.

00:02:41.520 I don't know if there's a connection between Jeffrey Epstein and Davos, but it's that kind

00:02:45.820 of place.

00:02:46.200 Kevin Spacey, the accused molester, loves to go to Davos.

00:02:50.100 He was with Trudeau and Aaron Wherry at a party, and Aaron Wherry was so excited to

00:02:55.580 see him.

00:02:57.400 Prince Andrew, who was fired by the Queen for his activities with Epstein, he used to

00:03:02.500 go to Davos.

00:03:03.420 It's that kind of place.

00:03:04.320 It's Trudeau's kind of place.

00:03:06.020 He's a head of government, but there's no there there.

00:03:10.700 Normally, it's the empty celebrities like Kevin Spacey who have to impress with things like

00:03:15.360 socks.

00:03:15.920 The heads of government, the heads of business, actually go to talk government and business.

00:03:20.820 But Trudeau has so little to say.

00:03:22.820 So little to say, but he says it so smugly.

00:03:26.300 But you need to take as much effort to talk to your sons, my eight-year-old boy and my

00:03:31.900 two-year-old, so little young still, about how he treats women and how he is going to

00:03:36.940 be grown up to be a feminist just like Dad. 0.99

00:03:39.600 Imagine having the world's investors in a room and talking about what a feminist you 1.00

00:03:43.960 are.

00:03:44.780 This from the groper, the fireer of Jody Wilson-Raybould and any other woman who got in his way. 1.00

00:03:49.820 What a loser he is. 1.00

00:03:51.160 What a room full of posers. 1.00

00:03:53.020 It's not really Donald Trump's kind of place, I don't think.

00:03:56.100 I mean, in a way, they are.

00:03:57.660 Before Donald Trump ran for president, he was a celebrity, too.

00:04:01.040 He had a hit TV show.

00:04:02.760 He hosted Miss America.

00:04:04.100 He was a tycoon.

00:04:04.940 He was over the top in his style.

00:04:07.940 They'd all have loved him before, but they all hate him now.

00:04:12.420 But still, he went this week and he gave a speech.

00:04:14.900 And it was completely opposite the hollow, vain, narcissistic, woke emptiness of Trudeau's

00:04:20.520 feminist speech. 0.99

00:04:21.600 I want to play some clips of Trump's speech for you because I am completely certain the

00:04:25.460 CBC did not show you any of this, and you'll see why.

00:04:28.240 When I spoke at this forum two years ago, I told you that we had launched the great American

00:04:34.780 comeback.

00:04:36.520 Today, I'm proud to declare that the United States is in the midst of an economic boom,

00:04:43.540 the likes of which the world has never seen before.

00:04:47.600 We've regained our stride, rediscovered our spirit, and reawakened the powerful machinery

00:04:55.080 of American enterprise.

00:04:57.580 America is thriving.

00:04:59.400 America is flourishing.

00:05:00.640 And yes, America is winning again like never before. 0.99

00:05:05.500 Now, it's a room full of arrogant, vain narcissists, true. 0.99

00:05:08.860 But in some cases, I guess they have good reason to be arrogant and vain. 0.97

00:05:12.680 I mean, if you're a billionaire, if you're a head of state, if you're royalty, if you're

00:05:15.760 a superstar, you have some reason to be proud, even too proud.

00:05:19.100 But the thing about Davos is that they all fake being woke and selfless and righteous.

00:05:23.900 They all flew there on their private jets, but they're all nodding along piously to St.

00:05:29.080 Greta, scolding them about using energy.

00:05:31.140 So yeah, they're all rich and powerful and proud, but unlike Trump, they don't dare say

00:05:35.800 who they are, either because they're too politically correct, or they lack the courage to be who

00:05:40.180 they are, or they support Greta and the other woke ideologies simply because those are great

00:05:45.740 ways to increase your power over people through laws or regulations or taxes.

00:05:50.680 Don't think Greta isn't being used by various power.

00:05:54.780 Okay, back to Trump's speech.

00:05:56.560 Just last week alone, the United States concluded two extraordinary trade deals.

00:06:02.040 The agreement with China and the United States-Mexico-Canada agreement, the two biggest trade deals

00:06:10.580 ever made.

00:06:11.580 They just happened to get done in the same week.

00:06:13.440 These agreements represent a new model of trade for the 21st century, agreements that

00:06:20.700 are fair, reciprocal, and that prioritize the needs of workers and families.

00:06:27.340 America's economic turnaround has been nothing short of spectacular.

00:06:31.020 How can you disagree?

00:06:32.920 Who would have imagined that Apple would be building computer factories in America?

00:06:37.420 And though I wish Trump drove a harder bargain on China, he got more from them than anyone 1.00

00:06:41.440 else ever has.

00:06:42.660 I think he's the first one to even try by staring them down, by tariffing them, by speaking

00:06:47.600 truth to power, and by showing that he isn't scared of them.

00:06:50.520 He literally warned China about getting too tough with Hong Kong right in the middle of

00:06:55.340 their trade negotiations.

00:06:56.420 That's noble to begin with.

00:06:58.080 But it also showed China that Trump simply didn't care if they pouted or if they quit the

00:07:02.480 talks.

00:07:03.160 Trump didn't just make America win.

00:07:05.940 He made China lose. 0.80

00:07:07.820 He's pushed China's economic growth to its lowest in a generation.

00:07:11.320 He scared them.

00:07:12.200 He stressed them.

00:07:12.940 Good.

00:07:13.620 Good.

00:07:14.240 And it's a good message for Trump to take to the blue-collar Rust Belt states in 2020,

00:07:19.240 that unlike the Democrats, Trump actually went to fight China and he won.

00:07:24.240 Here's some more.

00:07:24.880 When I took office three years ago, America's economy was in a rather dismal state.

00:07:31.220 Under the previous administration, nearly 200,000 manufacturing jobs had vanished.

00:07:38.400 Wages were flat or falling.

00:07:41.460 Almost 5 million more Americans had left the labor force than had gotten jobs, and more

00:07:47.220 than 10 million people had been added to the food stamp rolls.

00:07:51.500 The experts predicted a decade of very, very slow growth, or maybe even negative growth,

00:07:59.680 high unemployment and a dwindling workforce, and very much a shrinking middle class.

00:08:07.880 Millions of hardworking, ordinary citizens felt neglected, betrayed, forgotten.

00:08:14.240 They were rapidly losing faith in the system.

00:08:18.940 Before my presidency began, the outlook for many nations was bleak.

00:08:24.760 Top economists warned of a protracted worldwide recession.

00:08:29.620 The World Bank lowered its projections for global growth to a number that nobody wanted to even think about.

00:08:36.860 Pessimism had taken root deep in the minds of leading thinkers, business leaders, and policy makers.

00:08:45.720 He goes on like that, but let me stop for a moment.

00:08:48.380 It's true.

00:08:49.000 I don't know if you remember, but Barack Obama was asked why he doesn't have growth in factories and jobs.

00:08:53.760 And he said it was impossible to do.

00:08:55.500 You needed a magic wand.

00:08:57.760 He's going to bring all these jobs back.

00:09:00.020 Well, how exactly are you going to do that?

00:09:01.680 What are you going to do?

00:09:03.960 There's no answer to it.

00:09:06.040 He just says, well, I'm going to negotiate a better deal.

00:09:09.440 Well, how exactly are you going to negotiate that?

00:09:14.020 What magic wand do you have?

00:09:16.240 Yeah, magic wand just happened, I guess.

00:09:18.380 I wish we had someone in Canada who cared about jobs the same way Trump does.

00:09:23.600 Canada should be like that.

00:09:24.820 We would be if we were building $100 billion worth of oil and gas and pipeline projects that Trudeau has killed.

00:09:31.860 And get this.

00:09:32.980 For the first time in decades, we are no longer simply concentrating wealth in the hands of a few.

00:09:40.080 We're concentrating and creating the most inclusive economy ever to exist.

00:09:45.980 We are lifting up Americans of every race, color, religion, and creed.

00:09:51.020 Unemployment rates among African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans have all reached record lows.

00:10:00.680 African American youth unemployment has reached the lowest it's ever been in the history of our country.

00:10:08.220 African American poverty has plummeted to the lowest rate ever recorded.

00:10:12.920 The unemployment rate for women reached the lowest level since 1953, and women now comprise a majority of the American workforce.

00:10:23.840 That's for the first time.

00:10:26.240 The unemployment rate for veterans has dropped to a record low.

00:10:30.700 The unemployment rate for disabled Americans has reached an all-time record low.

00:10:36.680 Workers without a high school diploma have achieved the lowest unemployment rate recorded in U.S. history.

00:10:45.600 Wages are rising across the board, and those at the bottom of the income ladder are enjoying the percentage by far largest gains.

00:10:55.720 Workers' wages are now growing faster than management wages.

00:11:02.060 Earnings growth for the bottom 10% is outpacing the top 10%, something that has not happened.

00:11:10.740 Paychecks for high school graduates are rising faster than for college graduates.

00:11:16.640 When was the last time that any politician on the left spoke that way?

00:11:20.160 Actually cared about blue-collar workers, outdoor workers, manual laborers, skilled trades, truck drivers.

00:11:25.800 You can't if you prefer the environmentalists set to the working class.

00:11:30.060 If you're for a carbon tax, you hate coal miners. 1.00

00:11:33.080 It's just a fact.

00:11:34.540 I like that phrase Trump used at the beginning of that clip.

00:11:37.680 You know, Jeremy Corbyn's U.K. Labor Party had the slogan,

00:11:40.620 For the many, not the few.

00:11:43.080 Trump actually lives it.

00:11:44.680 Here's some more.

00:11:45.140 For the first time in decades, we are no longer simply concentrating wealth in the hands of a few.

00:11:52.460 We're concentrating and creating the most inclusive economy ever to exist.

00:11:58.380 We are lifting up Americans of every race, color, religion, and creed.

00:12:04.680 Unemployment rates among African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans have all reached record lows.

00:12:12.160 African American youth unemployment has reached the lowest it's ever been in the history of our country.

00:12:20.580 African American poverty has plummeted to the lowest rate ever recorded.

00:12:25.720 The unemployment rate for women reached the lowest level since 1953,

00:12:30.920 and women now comprise a majority of the American workforce. 0.98

00:12:36.180 That's for the first time.

00:12:37.820 The unemployment rate for veterans has dropped to a record low.

00:12:43.360 The unemployment rate for disabled Americans has reached an all-time record low.

00:12:49.980 Workers without a high school diploma have achieved the lowest unemployment rate recorded in U.S. history.

00:12:58.280 Wagers are rising across the board,

00:13:00.280 and those at the bottom of the income ladder are enjoying the percentage by far largest gains.

00:13:09.260 Workers' wages are now growing faster than management wages.

00:13:14.440 Earnings growth for the bottom 10% is outpacing the top 10%,

00:13:19.760 something that has not happened.

00:13:23.100 Paychecks for high school graduates are rising faster than for college graduates.

00:13:28.360 I didn't actually know all those facts.

00:13:30.920 The media didn't.

00:13:31.760 The CBC sure doesn't.

00:13:34.180 They prefer the myth that America is about rapacious capitalists in top hats, the 1%.

00:13:39.460 They like historically illiterate leftists better,

00:13:43.860 like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calling for socialism,

00:13:47.440 even though capitalism is what's actually lifting up poor people.

00:13:50.520 Here's more.

00:13:50.900 We have created 1.2 million manufacturing and construction jobs,

00:13:55.640 a number also unthinkable.

00:13:58.420 After losing 60,000 factories under the previous two administrations,

00:14:03.940 hard to believe when you hear 60,000 factories,

00:14:09.280 America has now gained in a very short period of time 12,000 new factories under my administration,

00:14:16.080 and the number is going up rapidly, we'll be beating the 60,000 number that we lost,

00:14:22.260 except these will be bigger, newer, and the latest.

00:14:26.700 It must be nice to have a country that lets you build things without a gender analysis first. 1.00

00:14:32.560 Gender impact, how does that fit into a pipeline approval process? 0.99

00:14:35.240 So I'm really glad you asked that, because I think people are like,

00:14:37.600 well, what is this gender thing? 1.00

00:14:38.780 Well, imagine that you have a huge number of people going to a remote community, many men.

00:14:46.760 What is the impact on the community?

00:14:48.580 What is the impact on women in the community? 1.00

00:14:50.580 And actually, once again, smart proponents understand this,

00:14:53.340 so they're going to put measures in place.

00:14:54.840 That's all it is.

00:14:55.600 It's just taking a smart approach to thinking about,

00:14:58.100 okay, what's going to be the impact of a major development in a particular area?

00:15:02.060 Yeah.

00:15:02.880 Trump goes on about the economy for a while.

00:15:04.740 I'm not going to play any more of it.

00:15:06.080 It's great, but I just don't have time.

00:15:08.780 But then he talks about nationalism as opposed to globalism.

00:15:13.640 And this is what surely bothered the George Soros set the most.

00:15:17.180 A nation's highest duty is to its own citizens.

00:15:21.800 Honoring this truth is the only way to build faith and confidence in the market system.

00:15:27.280 Only when governments put their own citizens first

00:15:30.500 will people be fully invested in their national futures.

00:15:35.020 In the United States, we are building an economy that works for everyone,

00:15:41.520 restoring the bonds of love and loyalty that unite citizens and powers nations.

00:15:49.020 Today, I hold up the American model as an example to the world of a working system,

00:15:55.100 a free enterprise that will produce the most benefits for the most people in the 21st century and beyond.

00:16:03.060 A pro-worker, pro-citizen, pro-family agenda demonstrates how a nation can thrive

00:16:08.760 when its communities, its companies, its government, and its people work together for the good of the whole nation.

00:16:15.960 How opposite to Trudeau, who cares for foreign countries more than he cares for entire provinces

00:16:22.560 and demographics in his own country?

00:16:24.840 Trudeau loves the UN, certainly more than he loves Alberta.

00:16:28.400 Don't you think? Can you doubt it?

00:16:31.040 Trump is doing one thing Stephen Harper didn't do.

00:16:34.560 He's making American courts conservative.

00:16:37.340 Harper could have completely remade the judiciary in Canada over his nine years, but he didn't.

00:16:42.500 Some of that blame goes to Peter McKay, his former justice minister,

00:16:46.100 who's now running for the Tory leader in Canada.

00:16:48.260 Get this.

00:16:48.940 We are also restoring the constitutional rule of law in America,

00:16:52.980 which is essential to our economy, our liberty, and our future.

00:16:58.860 And that's why we've appointed over 190 federal judges, a record, to interpret the law as written.

00:17:08.300 190 federal judges, think of that, and two Supreme Court judges.

00:17:11.760 Hey, could you imagine Trudeau even saying the following words?

00:17:17.400 To every business looking for a place where they are free to invest, build, thrive, innovate, and succeed.

00:17:23.920 There is no better place on earth than the United States.

00:17:27.920 Yeah, no, yeah, Trudeau preferred to talk about his own feminism.

00:17:31.440 You've got a room full of billionaires, and you talk about your own feminism. 1.00

00:17:34.540 All right, here's Trump. Listen to this.

00:17:35.860 Before I was elected, China's predatory practices were undermining trade for everyone.

00:17:42.340 But no one did anything about it except allow it to keep getting worse and worse and worse.

00:17:49.380 Under my leadership, America confronted the problem head-on.

00:17:52.640 Under our new Phase 1 agreement, Phase 2 is starting negotiations very shortly.

00:17:59.460 China has agreed to substantially do things that they would not have done,

00:18:05.640 measures to protect intellectual property, stop forced technology transfers,

00:18:12.540 remove trade barriers, remove trade barriers and agricultural goods and on agricultural goods where

00:18:18.460 we were treated so badly, open its financial sector totally, that's done,

00:18:24.620 and maintain a stable currency, all backed by very, very strong enforcement.

00:18:31.180 Our relationship with China right now has probably never been better.

00:18:36.120 We went through a very rough patch, but it's never, ever been better.

00:18:40.140 My relationship with President Xi is an extraordinary one.

00:18:44.740 He's for China, I'm for the U.S., but other than that, we love each other. 0.96

00:18:48.460 I think that is not true, actually.

00:18:51.760 I think Xi Jinping hates Trump very much, and I think Trump loves beating up on Xi Jinping.

00:18:58.360 I mean, he's doing it right here, right now in this speech.

00:19:01.480 It's Trump's way of saying he'll fight you, and he'll keep fighting you,

00:19:05.060 even as he's negotiating with you.

00:19:07.420 That shows you who's boss.

00:19:08.400 That's a man who's negotiated a thousand deals, tiny and huge, in his career.

00:19:14.760 One of the toughest industries in the world, New York City real estate.

00:19:18.180 I mean, if you're not dealing with the unions, you're dealing with the mob,

00:19:21.160 you're dealing with government regulators, you're dealing with competitors.

00:19:25.060 Imagine how tough it is to do business in Manhattan.

00:19:27.980 Trump knows how to fight.

00:19:29.560 He knows how to deal.

00:19:31.120 No one has ever taken on China that way. 1.00

00:19:33.120 Certainly not Justin Trudeau, the coward. 0.98

00:19:35.500 And get this on oil and gas. 0.67

00:19:37.880 To protect our security and our economy, we are also boldly embracing American energy independence.

00:19:44.500 The United States is now, by far, the number one producer of oil and natural gas anywhere in the world.

00:19:50.700 By far.

00:19:51.480 It's not even close.

00:19:52.940 While many European countries struggle with crippling energy costs,

00:19:57.500 the American energy revolution is saving American families $2,500 every year in lowering electric bills and numbers that people said couldn't happen.

00:20:10.940 And also, very importantly, prices at the pump.

00:20:14.640 We've been so successful that the United States no longer needs to import energy from hostile nations.

00:20:22.540 With an abundance of American natural gas now available, our European allies no longer have to be vulnerable to unfriendly energy suppliers either.

00:20:33.500 We urge our friends in Europe to use America's vast supply and achieve true energy security.

00:20:42.260 With U.S. companies and researchers leading the way, we are on the threshold of virtually unlimited reserves of energy,

00:20:50.920 including from traditional fuels, LNG, clean coal, next generation nuclear power, and gas hydrate technologies.

00:20:59.980 You wouldn't know it, but Canada actually has about five times the oil reserves in the United States.

00:21:05.380 We have more oil in Canada than any other country besides Venezuela or Saudi Arabia,

00:21:09.980 but we produce a fraction of what America does.

00:21:13.340 We should be saying those things.

00:21:14.760 Instead, we're bringing in carbon taxes, calling for gender analysis of projects, 0.89

00:21:19.340 and importing oil from Saudi Arabia and from America by rail, if you can believe it.

00:21:24.900 And you know, when Trump talks about the environment, and he does, he doesn't talk about made-up problems like a puff of carbon dioxide,

00:21:33.060 which is not a real problem. It's not pollution. It's natural.

00:21:36.680 Donald Trump talks about, you know, the environment.

00:21:39.980 At the same time, I'm proud to report the United States is among the cleanest air and drinking water on Earth,

00:21:45.640 and we're going to keep it that way.

00:21:48.520 And we just came out with a report that, at this moment, it's the cleanest it's been in the last 40 years.

00:21:56.020 We're committed to conserving the majesty of God's creation and the natural beauty of our world.

00:22:03.720 Today, I'm pleased to announce the United States will join One Trillion Trees Initiative,

00:22:09.720 being launched here at the World Economic Forum.

00:22:13.920 One trillion trees.

00:22:15.640 And in doing so, we will continue to show strong leadership in restoring, growing,

00:22:24.500 and better managing our trees and our forests.

00:22:28.060 Now, we don't need to plant trees in Canada.

00:22:30.540 We have a trillion trees in our northern forests already.

00:22:33.960 We don't actually have to plant any more trees at all, ever, in our future.

00:22:39.200 We have more trees than we ever need, ever will need.

00:22:41.760 But at least, at least if Trudeau were planting trees, he wouldn't be destroying the country, killing jobs,

00:22:48.340 and I suppose we'd have some pretty parks in the cities.

00:22:51.100 Instead, we've got a global warming cult leader who believes that oil is actually evil.

00:22:55.640 Listen to this.

00:22:56.600 This is the opposite of Trudeau's climate cult.

00:22:59.380 This is the opposite of Greta Thunberg shouting at everyone. 1.00

00:23:03.520 This is not a time for pessimism.

00:23:06.260 This is a time for optimism.

00:23:10.100 Fear and doubt is not a good thought process,

00:23:15.800 because this is a time for tremendous hope and joy and optimism and action.

00:23:20.640 But to embrace the possibilities of tomorrow, we must reject the perennial prophets of doom

00:23:27.020 and their predictions of the apocalypse. 0.99

00:23:30.520 They are the heirs of yesterday's foolish fortune-tellers. 0.98

00:23:35.160 And I have them, and you have them, and we all have them. 0.97

00:23:38.040 And they want to see us do badly, but we don't let that happen.

00:23:42.500 They predicted an overpopulation crisis in the 1960s, mass starvation in the 70s, and an end of oil in the 1990s.

00:23:54.180 These alarmists always demand the same thing, absolute power to dominate, transform, and control every aspect of our lives.

00:24:01.740 We will never let radical socialists destroy our economy, wreck our country, or eradicate our liberty.

00:24:10.520 America will always be the proud, strong, and unyielding bastion of freedom.

00:24:16.400 In America, we understand what the pessimists refuse to see.

00:24:22.040 That a growing and vibrant market economy, focused on the future, lifts the human spirit,

00:24:28.000 and excites creativity, strong enough to overcome any challenge, any challenge by far.

00:24:35.200 This guy knows.

00:24:36.200 That's a positive message, isn't it?

00:24:38.740 And he's not mean most of the time in this speech.

00:24:42.060 Listen to him praise Europe.

00:24:44.020 And I think he really means it.

00:24:46.120 Centuries ago, at the time of the Renaissance, skilled craftsmen and laborers looked upwards

00:24:52.800 and built the structures that still touch the human heart.

00:24:58.300 To this day, some of the greatest structures in the world have been built hundreds of years

00:25:03.880 years ago.

00:25:04.880 In Italy, the citizens once started construction on what would be a 140-year project.

00:25:14.000 The Duomo of Florence, incredible, incredible place.

00:25:21.200 While the technology did not yet exist to complete their design, city fathers forged ahead anyway,

00:25:28.880 certain that they would figure it out someday.

00:25:32.200 These citizens of Florence did not accept limits to their high aspirations.

00:25:37.520 And so, the great dome was finally built.

00:25:41.320 In France, another century-long project continues to hold such a grip on our hearts and our souls 0.95

00:25:48.200 that even 800 years after its construction, when the cathedral of Notre-Dame was engulfed in flames

00:25:57.940 last year.

00:25:58.940 Such a sad sight to watch, unbelievable sight, especially for those of us that considered

00:26:05.480 it one of the great, great monuments and representing so many different things.

00:26:12.200 The whole world grieved through her sanctuary, now stands scorched and charred and a sight that's

00:26:25.160 hard to believe.

00:26:27.440 When you got used to it, to look at it now, hard to believe.

00:26:31.760 But we know that Notre-Dame will be restored, will be restored magnificently.

00:26:40.440 The great bells will once again ring out for all to hear, giving glory to God and filling

00:26:45.820 millions with wonder and awe.

00:26:48.880 He's a builder.

00:26:49.880 He loves buildings.

00:26:50.880 What are you going to do?

00:26:51.880 All right, I've shown you a lot, but I wanted to because I know no other media in Canada

00:26:55.220 and precious few in the U.S. media party would show you.

00:26:58.900 Here's how Trump ended.

00:26:59.900 Above all else, we will forever be loyal to our workers, our citizens, and our families,

00:27:05.580 the men and women who are the backbone of our economies, the heart of our communities,

00:27:12.300 and the soul of our countries.

00:27:14.020 Let us bring light to their lives one by one and empower them to light up the world.

00:27:23.340 Thank you very much.

00:27:24.340 God bless you.

00:27:25.640 God bless your countries and God bless America.

00:27:28.020 Thank you.

00:27:29.020 Yeah, that's what a world leader sounds like, America's leader, but also the leader of the

00:27:35.580 free world.

00:27:36.580 He praises himself, sure, but mainly he praises his country and its workers and builders and

00:27:41.520 citizens.

00:27:42.520 What a difference from our fancy socks, boy.

00:27:46.020 I'll say it.

00:27:47.020 I'm jealous.

00:27:48.020 Stay with us for more.

00:27:50.020 Well, in nine days, the United Kingdom will formally leave the European Union.

00:28:08.660 It was a referendum that passed in 2016, even before Donald Trump was elected.

00:28:14.760 But finally, Brexit will happen at 11 p.m. on January 31st.

00:28:21.040 Wexit is being discussed seriously in Alberta and Western Canada in reaction to Eastern Canada's

00:28:29.320 hostility towards the oil and gas sector.

00:28:32.420 And of course, for decades, Quebec has talked about secession.

00:28:36.620 Well, is anyone talking about the United States?

00:28:40.120 Clearly, there's two Americas. 0.89

00:28:42.080 As anyone who compares the politics of, say, Silicon Valley with that of the heartland

00:28:47.420 can see there are multitudes within.

00:28:50.140 Well, now, a new book suggests that perhaps there's a time to break up the United States.

00:28:56.780 It's a shocking thesis, and it's in a book called American Secession, The Looming Threat

00:29:03.540 of a National Breakup.

00:29:05.800 The author is a guest who's appeared on our show several times before to great audience

00:29:11.860 reception.

00:29:12.560 I'm talking about Professor Frank Buckley, a professor at George Mason University's Scalia

00:29:18.620 School of Law.

00:29:20.420 We've talked to him in the past about his book, The Republican Workers' Party, Fascinating

00:29:24.780 Thesis, and I'm delighted that he joins us now via Skype.

00:29:28.700 Professor, it's so good to have you back on.

00:29:32.040 American secession, it would not have come to mind.

00:29:34.660 I mean, America, by so many measures, is a great success.

00:29:38.400 Why do you think American secession is something that needs to be considered?

00:29:44.280 Well, maybe it's because I'm here, Ezra, as a refugee from Quebec.

00:29:48.420 So secession, and I'm originally from Saskatchewan, so secession seems perfectly natural.

00:29:55.060 I mean, it's the history of pretty much the whole world.

00:29:58.380 Well, the whole world is pretty much staring down a secession movement, and we've been

00:30:04.200 immune from that.

00:30:04.960 But on the other hand, we've never been so divided.

00:30:07.200 I mean, we were frankly, I think, less divided in 1860 in many ways.

00:30:11.260 But we've got the wokiest parts of the country in places like Oregon and California, and then

00:30:21.180 you've got some more traditional states, like, well, my own used to be that way, in Virginia.

00:30:28.960 And yet we think we can have one set of laws for the whole darn country, and it's not working

00:30:36.360 terribly well, right?

00:30:38.380 And so I think for a lot of reasons, we should expect to see something like a secession movement.

00:30:45.940 And the great thing is, this time it'll be politically correct, because we'll see it from

00:30:50.400 the left-wing progressive states.

00:30:53.840 I mean, you know, as you're aware, politics in America have become crazy, and I have a

00:31:00.200 simple explanation for that.

00:31:02.420 Back in 1992, Irving Kristol said the culture wars are over, the left won.

00:31:07.840 Then Donald Trump got elected in 2016, and at that point, it became clear that, you know,

00:31:14.000 the left had not quite won the war and may indeed be losing the war.

00:31:18.560 And as that happens, I think the left is going to start wondering, do we really want to be

00:31:23.520 a part of a country when we think half of its members are deplorable?

00:31:28.340 And, you know, and the divisions are geographic, right?

00:31:31.780 I mean, they weren't totally geographic here in 1860.

00:31:35.780 Virginia took three votes on secession in 1861, and the first two failed, and it was only when

00:31:41.900 Lincoln called up the troops that the third one passed.

00:31:44.720 And as for us, take a look at that 2016 map of how we voted, and it's not just that there

00:31:51.760 are reds and blues that are very geographic, but the reds are deep reds, and the blues are

00:31:56.840 deep blues, and the sense of alienation from the other part of America is very strong.

00:32:02.960 Well, listen, I get what you're saying, and if you look at a county-level map of red and blue,

00:32:11.120 and we'll put that on the screen now, I mean, Donald Trump enjoys looking at this map because

00:32:14.900 if you just measure county by county, almost the entire map is red, but those blue counties in the

00:32:22.960 big cities in New York, Chicago, California's cities, especially San Francisco, but also LA,

00:32:32.320 they are geographically small, but like you say, they're extremely liberal. Like, I don't know what

00:32:37.220 the math was in Manhattan, but I'd be shocked if the Republicans got 10% there, and that's Donald

00:32:42.020 Trump's home borough. So, I mean, really, aren't you talking about a separation of some cities?

00:32:49.860 I have not had a chance to tuck into your book yet, but it's very interesting. I mean, Singapore

00:32:55.300 is a city-state. Hong Kong used to be a city-state. Is that really the answer? Get Manhattan out of

00:33:02.380 things, get San Francisco and LA and Chicago out of things, maybe Miami, and the rest is one big

00:33:07.520 right-wing country? Well, you're right. The states themselves are very divided. If secession were to

00:33:14.000 happen, however, it would be on a statewide basis. You'd see a referendum in some place like California,

00:33:22.240 and obviously, there'd be a lot of people who disagree, but nevertheless, it would be a state-led

00:33:27.220 initiative. On the other hand, as you note, there are pockets of, you know, unionists in California,

00:33:35.440 for example. So another possibility here would be if California actually proceeded with it,

00:33:42.400 you'll see movements for breakups within a state as well. New York upstate would be totally unionist,

00:33:50.160 on my scenario, and, you know, Manhattan, the New York City itself would be separatist. Staten Island

00:33:58.660 would be totally unionist. So you'd get the kind of divisions where people in San Diego County would

00:34:06.520 be asked, do you really want to be part of the same state as Los Angeles? And I think we know what

00:34:11.740 the answer is. So, you know, the jigsaw puzzle can break up that way. Well, let me ask you this. I'm,

00:34:18.620 I mean, I admire America, but I am not American. I don't have a deep knowledge of the Civil War. I know

00:34:25.040 two things about it. First of all, it was by far the bloodiest of all of America's wars. In fact,

00:34:31.000 if I'm not mistaken, more Americans died in the Civil War than all other wars combined. Correct me 0.97

00:34:35.420 if I'm wrong on that, Professor. And it's the pain of that and the legacy of that continues to this day.

00:34:44.760 So to, to propose secession, I'm not sure if you're quite proposing it as much as observing it.

00:34:51.160 Let me start by asking a basic question. Is it even legal? I mean, I don't think Abraham Lincoln

00:34:57.320 thought it was legal. Is it legal for a state to leave the union?

00:35:02.380 Well, two questions there. One is, would it be bloody as the Civil War was bloodied? My answer

00:35:07.700 is no. And, you know, here I am channeling my experience in Quebec. There was violence in Quebec

00:35:14.800 in the 1960s and early 70s, but the violence completely stopped when the hotheads realized

00:35:22.100 they could get their way through legal means, through secession. Right? So there's no violence

00:35:26.880 in Quebec after 1976 and the election of the PQ government. You know, the other thing is,

00:35:33.080 well, what about the Anglos in Quebec? Well, you know, you, you know the story well, so do all

00:35:37.920 Canadians, right? We English Montrealers spoke of bill 101 and how it suppressed English rights,

00:35:45.260 but we also called it bill 401, right? Because we thought, you know, what's going to happen is

00:35:51.260 we'll take the 401 down to Toronto, which about 300,000 English Montrealers did. You know, so my,

00:35:58.120 you know, my, my advice, my suggestion is don't worry about violence, but buy stock and U-Haul.

00:36:04.280 The next question is, is this illegal? You know, and, and the, the Supreme Court in 1868,

00:36:13.960 once the civil war was good and over said, secession is illegal. But if you had to look

00:36:19.280 at this prospectively, right, before there was a conflict, I think the Supreme Court might well

00:36:27.560 hesitate before empowering the president to send in the troops and invade the way they

00:36:34.260 invaded my Alexandria in April, 1861. And Virginia was unionist until it saw itself under attack.

00:36:44.560 So I, you know, so I, I don't think anybody would want to create an Abraham Lincoln again. I mean,

00:36:51.460 we'd be more likely to see a James Buchanan. But the other thing here is if it, you know,

00:36:56.400 this would inevitably end up before the Supreme Court. And I think two, two things would happen.

00:37:02.120 Number one, the originalists on the Supreme Court would recall that the framers of the Constitution

00:37:09.640 believed that the country could split apart. They, they didn't believe that there was an

00:37:14.400 indissoluble union. They actively contemplated a breakup of the country that was very much on the table.

00:37:21.380 The other thing that might, that the US Supreme Court might look to, frankly, is the Canadian Supreme

00:37:30.100 Court on the clarity reference. And what the Canadian Supreme Court said, I thought made a heck of a lot

00:37:35.860 of sense. It said, number one, there's no absolute right of secession. On the other hand, a secession

00:37:41.940 referendum is not a nullity. But rather, it's a sort of thing that should get people talking.

00:37:47.300 And if people started talking once there were, it was a secession referendum. Well, you know, at that

00:37:55.060 point, a number of things would be on the table, like how do you split up the federal debt? But, you know,

00:38:00.740 also, you know, a kind of renewed federalism of the kind we used to enjoy before the federal government

00:38:09.860 thought it could rule everything. And before the US Supreme Court, you know, armed with the idea of an

00:38:16.420 expansionary imperialistic liberalism, saw fit to dictate what our laws as to abortion and the like

00:38:24.900 should be. So, you know, we're not going to want to do the civil rights revolution in any state.

00:38:30.820 But, you know, if Alabama wants to tighten laws as to abortion, I don't see why California should have

00:38:38.020 a voice in that question.

00:38:42.420 In Canada, the secession movement in Quebec, which is now 50 years old, or older actually,

00:38:51.460 drained so much energy and attention and morale and focus. And it hijacked so much of the national

00:38:59.540 conversation. And I sense that WEXIT, Western Canada, seeking an independent status, if unchecked,

00:39:07.220 will do the same. It just seems, I mean, there may have been legitimate grievances in Quebec.

00:39:13.860 I believe there are legitimate grievances in Western Canada. But I know that the secession conversation

00:39:21.060 had such a cost to it. And it dominated other issues. And I look at America now, and I can see for

00:39:28.820 myself cultural divides. We saw that huge rally of gun owners in Virginia versus gun grabbers. So yeah,

00:39:36.900 there are issues. But I just can't imagine America being so strong economically, strong militarily,

00:39:42.900 strong on huge things that matter, if it were fighting a 5-, 10-, 20-year internal fight over

00:39:52.740 breaking up. I mean, I accept that there are great differences between San Francisco and,

00:39:58.420 let's say, Wyoming or West Virginia. But I don't know, it just seems like this would be a 10% tax on

00:40:07.860 the economy and morale and conversation of America. I'm just brainstorming here.

00:40:13.540 Well, you're right about one thing. Secession is a bit of a tough sell for Canadians, because Canadians

00:40:20.980 went through that experience for a 50-year period. And it was profitless. It diverted attention from

00:40:28.260 things that needed to be done. But it's a little different here. Number one, we don't have the

00:40:32.820 historic memory of, you know, how messy it was in Canada. And number two, we've got a different

00:40:40.260 constitutional structure where things just don't get done. I mean, we'll have, we have permanent

00:40:45.300 grid law under the separation of powers in America, which one doesn't have in a parliamentary system.

00:40:53.620 So, you know, if you're worried about things not getting done, believe me, they won't get done

00:40:58.340 under any circumstances. The only way of getting things done actually would be probably to secede,

00:41:03.140 right? And, you know, at that point, the Erring sisters might depart in peace and pass whatever 0.62

00:41:09.780 kind of woke legislation they want. So it's, you know, it's the separation of powers in this country

00:41:16.740 that creates an incentive for secession. And then you have those great divisions. I mean,

00:41:21.940 here I am in Alexandria across the river from DC, and every morning, the Washington Post arrives in my

00:41:27.860 doorstep. And it's one more argument for secession, right? It's just gripping with contempt for the kind 0.75

00:41:33.620 of people who might disagree with its stance. And, you know, and, and, you know, the thing is,

00:41:39.860 the left doesn't have a stop instinct. So they won the gay marriage debate, and they instantly shifted

00:41:48.420 to transgender rights, right? So there is not almost no paper, almost no edition of the Post,

00:41:57.540 that won't have something on, on transgender people. I mean, I don't know where they, you know,

00:42:02.100 if they won that one, which they are, I don't know where they'd go next. I don't know what's left,

00:42:07.060 basically. Well, in your blurb, which I've reviewed, I haven't read the whole book yet, but boy,

00:42:14.340 you've tantalized me. You talk about a secession light. And I first saw, well, that sounds like

00:42:19.460 sovereignty association that was pitched by the Quebecers. What it, and that seems to suggest

00:42:26.980 that you think that maybe there's a baby step or a halfway step, maybe to let out some of the

00:42:32.500 pressure that's short of breaking up the union. I have to tell you, it would make me very sad

00:42:36.900 if the United States were to break up. Sentimentality is no reason to stop doing something. But I like the

00:42:44.500 fact that America is mighty. As you point out, it's one of the largest countries in the world,

00:42:48.820 both geographically and population wise. I like that because I, I want a strong counterweight to 0.86

00:42:55.300 China and Russia. And I don't, it's, it would make me sad if America were to be lessened in some way.

00:43:02.340 Is there some halfway house? What do you mean by secession light?

00:43:05.220 Well, you got a couple of questions there. First of all, um, to session light would be,

00:43:13.300 yes, something like sovereignty association. It would in fact be a form of devolution where we've

00:43:19.620 reversed federal encroachments on state rights over the last 50 or 80 years, uh, particularly through

00:43:26.580 the Supreme court. And I, you know, I think that would be great. I mean, you know, here I am in,

00:43:31.860 in Virginia, I couldn't care less what the gun laws in Massachusetts are. You know,

00:43:36.900 if they want to live in an unsafe state, that's their business. But, you know, don't tell me that

00:43:41.860 what our laws have to be here with respect to same sex marriage and the like. So, you know,

00:43:47.460 that would be by way of calling a truce in the culture wars. The other thing you talk about is,

00:43:54.180 is how you're happy with America being strong, you know, and living here,

00:43:59.940 you know, trying to get a feel as somebody who's moved to the country about how Americans feel

00:44:05.540 about their country. I, I, I believe that for many of them, you know, the great attachment is to the

00:44:12.900 glory of belonging to the country that owns all the guns in the room. That is its military might,

00:44:21.380 but there's such a thing as too much of a good thing. And Americans voted against,

00:44:26.180 you know, the military might or the military expansionism in the 2006 congressional elections

00:44:35.060 that gave the house to the Dems. And in 2016, I mean, Donald Trump, and I, you know, I, I advise

00:44:42.420 Trump on policy matters. Donald Trump explicitly rejected the neocon desire to wage war in foreign

00:44:50.900 countries. I mean, he wanted to bring us back to Washington's farewell address, where he said,

00:44:55.700 look, you know, here we are in North America, we don't have to worry about being invaded by

00:44:59.860 neighboring countries. We're not in Europe, thank God, and let's profit from that.

00:45:04.580 You know, and yet we spend more on the military than the next 21 countries put together,

00:45:10.980 right? Military budget, about 680 billion a year. So if we split into two countries and have that,

00:45:18.820 I mean, would that be such a bad thing? Nobody would invade us, we wouldn't have to worry about

00:45:23.940 things. And, and a lot of Americans are beginning to think we don't have to be the world's policemen.

00:45:29.620 And as for those woke states like California, if you told the Californian,

00:45:36.180 on secession, you don't have to put the bill for the country's military budget,

00:45:41.860 and that'll save you enough money to have a form of national health for Californians. 0.80

00:45:46.740 I think a lot of Californians would like that.

00:45:50.340 Well, it's very interesting. I have not heard these ideas before. And I, I wonder if,

00:45:58.420 if the real impact of this book and these ideas will simply be to get Americans thinking about

00:46:05.700 how they can solve some of the problems you outline in less dramatic ways in full secession.

00:46:11.620 You're talking about devolving powers, respecting the original intent of the constitution,

00:46:15.220 getting out of foreign adventurism, as Washington suggested. Those would all be happy outcomes. 0.99

00:46:22.100 I don't know. I just, it, I'm a foreigner, so I, I don't have a direct stake in America,

00:46:28.100 but I think many people around the world see it, see its strength in the, and its glory as a,

00:46:36.740 as a form of protection and as a form of a role model. I tell you, I look at those protesters in Hong

00:46:42.980 Kong, flying American flags, playing the American anthem, talking about American ideas. And I think that,

00:46:53.300 that greatness, I wouldn't want it to be diminished. I wonder what Hong Kongers think

00:46:58.980 is the essence of America. I've been thinking a lot about them because I think in some ways they,

00:47:05.540 they are the most outstanding freedom-oriented people in the world right now. I just am endlessly

00:47:11.940 impressed by that. I don't know where my question is going here, other than I just,

00:47:16.660 as a foreigner, I, I, I'm grateful that America is great. Last word to you, Professor.

00:47:22.980 Well, I agree with everything you said, but the crucial point to understand here is that

00:47:28.580 only Americans get to vote on American policy, not people in Hong Kong and not people in Canada.

00:47:34.740 So, and that's been the Trump message. The Trump message has been, let's be self-interested.

00:47:40.020 We're not out there to do anything other than to protect our own, not to protect people in other

00:47:46.100 countries. Yeah. You know, we have concerns about the sea lanes in the South China seas. That's about

00:47:52.260 our trade. We have concerns about protecting Americans abroad and we can launch drone attacks on, on

00:47:59.940 murderers who do that. Um, but the, there's been a fundamental shift in American foreign policy under

00:48:08.580 Trump where your kinds of arguments are found to be less pressing or, you know.

00:48:14.660 Yeah, well, I'm not saying it's an, I mean, I agree with you. I, I mean, I don't think America

00:48:19.620 should be the world policeman. I spent a fair bit of time reading the Afghanistan papers. What an

00:48:24.420 unmitigated disaster that unplanned fire hose of trillions of dollars with, I mean, it's just

00:48:33.380 absolutely, I'm against American adventurism and the Globocop approach. I guess I, um, I, I just want,

00:48:41.540 I don't want America to be diminished and that's as an outside friend and ally. I did say last word to

00:48:47.700 you and then I, then I felt like I had to jam in another word. Tell me what you, let's, let me switch

00:48:52.900 gears because I got you on, on the Skype. I know that you've, uh, had the president's ear on a few

00:48:58.820 matters. We're in the, we're less than a year away, um, till the election in November. I can't

00:49:05.780 say that any of the Democrat, uh, contenders are, uh, impressive to me. Who knows if Hillary will throw 1.00

00:49:11.700 her hat in in the late entry. It looks to me like, uh, the cards are lining up well for Trump to

00:49:18.420 have a success in his reelection. Give me your thoughts on 2020.

00:49:23.220 Well, first of all, 2020 includes the impeachment. That's obviously going to fizzle,

00:49:28.180 right? It's going to be a tremendous embarrassment. And then you get people on the left

00:49:33.780 running on the most left-wing policies that you could possibly imagine, right? I mean,

00:49:39.460 you know, of course they're socialists, right? I mean, they're running on socialism

00:49:44.420 and they're not going to win on that. And that, you know, I, so I, I think I don't want to say

00:49:50.900 anything is assured in American politics, but I'm very confident Trump would be reelected.

00:49:57.700 And at that point, the left is going to have to decide, you know, do we, uh, lower our guns a little

00:50:04.820 bit and try to get along a little better with people we despise? Um, or do we look for some out,

00:50:12.980 some way of getting out of all of this stuff? And that's when I think they'll start looking at

00:50:18.740 secession. I mean, we already have massive interposition. We, we have states have declared

00:50:25.140 themselves sanctuary states, uh, who don't enforce federal immigration laws. Um, you know, Portland,

00:50:33.460 Oregon, Oregon, they permitted a mob to, uh, threaten ICE workers, federal immigration workers

00:50:42.020 to forbid them from leaving their building. Finally, the federal government had to send in

00:50:46.820 federal marshals to protect its own employees. Um, that's, you know, that's not Fort Sumter,

00:50:53.540 but you know, something that wasn't all that far either.

00:50:56.100 Yeah.

00:50:56.740 So, you know, we have massive interposition, even attempts at nullification of federal laws

00:51:04.340 that are, you know, that's tantamount to secession. So it's a smaller step than you might think.

00:51:10.340 Yeah.

00:51:10.980 And the animosities here are so deep. It's not so hard to imagine. Indeed, it's easy to imagine.

00:51:18.420 And that's my book.

00:51:19.300 Hmm. You know what? Uh, hearing it that way, perhaps the book is more

00:51:23.860 a hand book or a manual for upset Democrats the day after Trump wins again, more so than for

00:51:33.220 Republicans. Maybe that's your point. I look forward to reading the book. Professor,

00:51:37.140 you've been very generous with your time today, and I look forward to when we next speak.

00:51:41.460 Hey, guys. Great as always to talk to you.

00:51:43.700 Right on. Well, there you have it, Professor Frank Buckley. He's at George Mason University's

00:51:49.380 Scalia School of Law. And he joined us today via Skype

00:51:53.380 from Alexandria, Virginia. Stay with us. More Ahead on the Rebel.

00:52:06.180 Hey there. Final thoughts today. What do you think of Donald Trump's speech at Davos?

00:52:11.460 In a way, it was boring. And what I mean by that is it wasn't a dramatic,

00:52:19.060 a new initiative. It wasn't trying to be fashionable. It wasn't like it was just exactly what you would

00:52:25.060 expect the leader of the United States to say to a gathering of the world's investors and

00:52:30.900 billionaires and political leaders. Like it, it wasn't exciting or dramatic or innovative. It was just

00:52:38.020 good. It was great. But on terms that fancy Justin Trudeau would say, oh, that's so obsolete. We're

00:52:46.660 about climate feminism or social justice or transgender pride or whatever. Stuff that actually

00:52:53.380 has nothing to do with the World Economic Forum. I remember when Justin Trudeau was given the floor

00:52:58.020 at Davos. I think it was last year. And he went on and on and on about gender quotas for boards.

00:53:04.100 And look, give that speech at the Pussyhat March. Give that speech to a high school class or something,

00:53:12.020 to a teacher's federation. You've got the world's billionaires in a room and you're not wooing them

00:53:18.820 with economic arguments. In fact, you're scaring them with gender and transgender regulations. 0.98

00:53:25.060 What an idiot we have as a prime minister. All right. That's our show for today. Until tomorrow, 1.00

00:53:30.180 on behalf of all of us here at Red Bull World Headquarters, good night and keep fighting for freedom.
