Stand on Guard with David Krayden - The TRUTH About the Wildfires ｜ Stand on Guard

00:00:00.000 Good morning. Welcome back to another episode of Stand on Guard.

00:00:04.580 I'm your host, David Creighton, broadcasting to you live from your nation's capital.

00:00:10.560 We've got a lot to go through today, and we've got lots more for the week.

00:00:15.260 So I'll be back in a couple of mere moments to explain what's going on.

00:00:22.560 The Prime Minister lied and his minions continue to lie.

00:00:30.000 We need it, but it's a change.

00:00:37.380 But we also need to resolve to resist.

00:00:48.320 Yes, please like the station and subscribe.

00:00:51.820 If you haven't, we're still trying to get to 61,000.

00:00:56.740 And I think we'll get there with your help.

00:01:01.260 Now, I want to talk about a report.

00:01:02.820 Before we get into the real information, what's really going on with these wildfires and what the governments are not telling you,

00:01:12.560 I want to briefly talk about a report here.

00:01:17.620 Now, this is incredible, because everywhere you read, even the Toronto Star now is saying,

00:01:25.500 Mark Carney's not the same Mark Carney.

00:01:27.980 He's really not focused on climate change and net zero.

00:01:33.640 Well, folks, he is.

00:01:35.920 He very, very definitely is.

00:01:38.240 And if you read through this 2030 emissions reduction plan, clean air, strong economy.

00:01:44.920 It's got nothing to do with clean air, because carbon, of course, is not a pollution.

00:01:51.120 And it's going to mean a weaker economy.

00:01:54.340 I encourage you to read through this, because it's the same old Mark Carney, because this is a government document that's been untouched since Mark Carney became prime minister.

00:02:05.260 And it's it's it's absolutely you can read this for yourself on the Internet.

00:02:12.540 It's it's available and.

00:02:16.480 I want to show you who has done some research on this.

00:02:26.900 This is quite interesting here.

00:02:31.260 Now, Kirk Lubinoff.

00:02:32.820 Now, he's got a few weird things on his website here, but here's the point.

00:02:40.600 The liberal federal government's emissions reduction plan and its emission cap on the oil and gas industry is going to cost Alberta billions.

00:02:46.540 Actually, it's going to cost them one trillion dollars.

00:02:51.020 Alberta will lose almost one trillion dollars in economic activity between 2030 and 2050.

00:02:57.120 Smaller GDP, decline in household disposable income.

00:02:59.920 So it's it's it's it's it's all there.

00:03:07.700 Employment loss.

00:03:08.760 I think he meant losses.

00:03:10.140 Provincial revenues down.

00:03:12.100 Total disaster for Alberta.

00:03:13.820 Reminder, what's bad for Alberta is also bad for Canada, because Alberta, as long as it remains in Canada, is the economic engine of this country.

00:03:20.680 The oil and gas industry produces the largest share of the GDP.

00:03:27.460 You have to we have to remember that some people just hate the oil and gas industry, but that's what's keeping Canada running.

00:03:34.200 So I encourage you to go through this.

00:03:38.480 If you think Mark Carney is a different Mark Carney, it's what I have told you repeatedly.

00:03:45.980 Mark Carney is the Mark Carney of the hour.

00:03:49.120 Whatever Mark Carney has to say or do to get elected or to get approval from Canadians, he will say or do.

00:03:55.500 And right now he's talking pipelines, he's talking economic growth, he's talking, you know, we're going to do great things here with energy.

00:04:06.640 Yeah, we'll have clean energy, but I'm not opposed to that fossil fuels anymore here.

00:04:13.060 You know, read the government reports, because that's really all that matters.

00:04:16.380 That's where they put what they're going to do into black and white and color in terms of what this government stands for.

00:04:27.020 Now, I want to talk also today again about this farce that's going on in the Atlantic provinces, Newfoundland, Labrador, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

00:04:41.880 I'm surprised PEI hasn't jumped on board yet, because, of course, PEI is one of the most liberal provinces.

00:04:55.720 So here's an interesting point.

00:04:58.080 Can you remember back to 1989?

00:05:00.620 Well, I can.

00:05:02.160 We never talked about climate change in 1989.

00:05:05.600 It might have been something the Club of Rome talked about or the Bilderberg saying,

00:05:11.880 hey, how can we control people in the future?

00:05:14.020 Well, get them terrified about global warming, because that's what it was in the beginning.

00:05:19.640 Recall, folks, it wasn't called climate change, because that was too nebulous.

00:05:29.560 It was called global warming, because everyone said, oh, the temperatures were rising.

00:05:34.460 But as soon as that didn't look like it was actually happening, the term became climate change.

00:05:39.780 And so why didn't Canadians need climate lockdowns when they had 12,000 wildfires ranging in 1989?

00:05:49.560 That's a lot higher than today.

00:05:51.580 The highest ever recorded in Canada by far.

00:05:55.400 Now, think about this.

00:05:58.200 Nobody said, hey, there must be some nefarious reason for these wildfires.

00:06:03.800 It's got something to do with climate change.

00:06:06.580 And now, of course, all we hear is that the wildfires that are burning right now, largely in Atlanta, Canada.

00:06:17.640 You don't hear anything about Alberta this year.

00:06:19.360 Remember last year, Alberta was the site, the scene of climate change in action.

00:06:25.160 And you see the mainstream media constantly say, this is the new normal.

00:06:29.780 Well, if that's the new normal, it's a lot more normal than it was in 1989, 36 years ago.

00:06:42.320 Absolutely fascinating.

00:06:44.140 And so in Nova Scotia, agencies issued 10 tickets worth more than 25,000 each to people, allegedly violating burn restrictions.

00:07:00.400 So that's how it started in Nova Scotia.

00:07:04.180 So and a lot of people have said, hey, Newfoundland and Labrador, it's just about the burn.

00:07:08.880 And yet so far, until John Hogan, Premier John Hogan, jumps on the climate change bandwagon and says, hey, we have got to stop people from hiking in the woods, walking in the, even going past the yellow tape.

00:07:25.920 That's got the change.

00:07:27.640 So that's, of course, where it started in Nova Scotia.

00:07:36.920 From Tim Houston, Conservative Premier Tim Houston.

00:07:41.240 Of course, he's a Conservative in the same boat as Doug Ford, meaning not really.

00:07:46.040 Faux Conservative, Red Tory.

00:07:49.880 So here it is.

00:07:51.020 Nova Scotia has issued more than 288,000 in burn band fines.

00:07:56.000 So what was this about?

00:07:57.640 Obviously, because 10 people got tickets.

00:08:03.400 The premier decided to punish the whole province.

00:08:08.020 And that's where it went from burning restrictions to hiking restrictions.

00:08:14.820 And I tell you, people don't believe this around the world.

00:08:21.580 The candidate, once again, is taking the lead in insanity.

00:08:25.400 And that's the only way I can describe this.

00:08:27.640 Now, what is causing all of these wildfires?

00:08:34.760 Now, I was thinking this morning, one of the causes of fires used to be cigarettes, cigars, especially in the home, but also outside.

00:08:47.960 People would leave a lit cigarette, would drop a lit cigarette on a path, and it would start a fire.

00:08:53.600 With about 20% of the population smoking now, I would say that's hardly going to be a major cause of anything.

00:09:04.600 And if you look at the causes, 207 to 2023, 1,144 cases of arson, number one cause of fires.

00:09:15.280 But interestingly enough, even though there's been 46 cases of lightning, that doesn't seem to figure.

00:09:35.240 Because here's the Nova Scotia government disconnecting with itself.

00:09:43.040 And by the way, we took your advice seriously here when you said you want more research, we'll do more research.

00:09:49.480 And thank you for the advice.

00:09:53.200 Lightning figures in 0% in this same Nova Scotia government report.

00:09:59.400 I thought it was 46.

00:10:00.780 Doesn't that add up to at least 1%?

00:10:04.120 Probably 10% or more?

00:10:06.180 No, it's 0% because there's such a madness amongst governments to blame every wildfire on climate change.

00:10:20.380 Why?

00:10:20.860 Well, because it's part of the narrative.

00:10:23.200 And it's an opportunity to say, oh, if we don't, you know, if you don't stop using fossil fuels, if you don't stop heating your home, freeze in the winter.

00:10:33.400 Isn't it preferable to freeze in the winter than to have a wildfire in your backyard?

00:10:38.340 That's the mentality of these governments.

00:10:41.320 When in fact, freezing in the winter will have absolutely no impact on whether or not there's a wildfire in your backyard or in your neighborhood or in your town or in your province.

00:10:53.220 And these are the, this is the, their own statistics that demonstrates how crazy the statisticians are.

00:11:05.940 They won't, they can't even admit.

00:11:09.020 And here we are, forest fires and lightning.

00:11:11.120 The federal government report.

00:11:14.740 51% of the total.

00:11:16.960 45% of all fires.

00:11:24.220 The federal government even acknowledges that lightning might have something to do with wildfires.

00:11:32.200 But they don't, they never mention that when they talk about, well, we can see what these wildfires mean for, for, for Canada.

00:11:40.200 Clearly it's going to mean successive years of wildfires increasing in intensity, getting worse, impacting more Canadians.

00:11:51.500 And it's all because of climate change.

00:11:53.860 And their own reports are suggesting otherwise.

00:11:57.240 It's arson and lightning.

00:12:01.300 Now, Marty up north.

00:12:03.940 Always helpful.

00:12:04.940 Always helpful.

00:12:10.200 Annual forest fires have been trending down for 40 years in Canada.

00:12:19.260 Trending down.

00:12:21.820 Now, just a minute, folks.

00:12:25.440 If they've been trending down, why are we being told that it's getting worse?

00:12:32.180 And it's going to continue to get worse because of climate change.

00:12:37.180 And you can look forward to all of these, this horrendous spate of wildfires getting worse every year.

00:12:45.160 And the statistics say that.

00:12:48.280 That's the, and despite the fact that we've doubled our population, authorities are reporting every imaginable fires, even the ones in campgrounds.

00:12:56.040 So that's, you're going to start a fire in your campground.

00:13:03.500 Hey, that could be a forest fire.

00:13:06.600 That's how crazy it is.

00:13:07.800 And guess what, folks?

00:13:11.560 Remember last year, it was Alberta's fault?

00:13:14.660 Oh, Alberta, the home of all those fossil fuel production.

00:13:18.600 The home of oil and gas.

00:13:20.680 Alberta's getting its just desserts with those wildfires because it doesn't take this seriously.

00:13:26.500 Nary a mention of wildfires in Alberta this summer because there haven't been any.

00:13:30.780 They've been getting rain and I guess that seems to have satiated these wildfires that were generated supposedly by climate change.

00:13:42.720 And thank you again to Marty of North for that.

00:13:44.880 Now, what, how is the federal government, how are provincial governments responding to this so-called crisis in wildfires?

00:14:01.100 What are they doing?

00:14:02.180 Well, this is, this is absolutely fascinating.

00:14:03.780 The only, the only funding that has increased has been in Alberta and Ontario.

00:14:15.760 Funding hasn't increased anywhere else.

00:14:20.220 So if this is such a crisis, why are they not allocating funding towards solving the problem?

00:14:30.600 Because they seem to think it's nothing more than a tool to promote climate change agenda.

00:14:44.480 And this, I think, shocks me more than anything else that I'm, that I'm showing you today.

00:14:50.420 This is, this is absolutely horrendous.

00:14:52.760 But this is where we are at in this country.

00:14:56.040 Because people don't believe government agencies, government spokespeople don't even believe what they're telling you because they know it's politics.

00:15:13.160 And this is what it comes down to.

00:15:15.120 And yes, are, are, are, are homes being devastated, burned up by wildfires?

00:15:19.940 Are people dying in some cases?

00:15:21.720 Are people being injured?

00:15:22.680 Are businesses being destroyed?

00:15:24.840 Are livelihoods being destroyed?

00:15:26.220 Yes.

00:15:27.420 So you would think the government would do something in response to that.

00:15:32.060 But here's what I'm telling you today. 1.00

00:15:34.240 The government, governments are, are using the wildfire crisis to justify their own idiocy. 0.99

00:15:48.740 Now, what does this all come down to? 1.00

00:15:50.740 Woke politics, yes.

00:15:56.980 But I, I saw an interpretation the other day of what DEI really means.

00:16:03.620 And of course, what the governments will tell you that DEI means is diversity, equity, and inclusion.

00:16:09.940 Which is code, of course, for identity politics, and essentially, in many cases, racist politics.

00:16:20.800 Because it divides people amongst gender, ethnicity, race, and creates artificial boundaries, creates arbitrary, arbitrary distinctions between people.

00:16:33.420 And this is why Donald Trump is crushing DEI, and saying it's not going to have a place in government.

00:16:40.480 And if it has a place in your university, you're not getting funding.

00:16:44.280 If you expect us to support you as a government, get rid of your DEI policies, because they're bogus. 1.00

00:16:49.980 They're idiots. 1.00

00:16:50.600 DEI really means deflection, evasion, and incompetence. 1.00

00:16:59.420 That's what DEI promotes.

00:17:01.960 And that's what DEI is all about.

00:17:04.400 And remember that the next time somebody says to you, oh, don't you support DEI policies?

00:17:11.980 Don't you realize they're about making it more equitable for people?

00:17:18.460 Tell them it's about deflection.

00:17:21.540 It's about evasion.

00:17:23.380 And it's about incompetence.

00:17:27.480 Here.

00:17:28.700 I showed you that.

00:17:29.480 Now, here's the last plank in our study of the wildfire phenomena and what it really means.

00:17:42.060 Here's the exposed part.

00:17:45.640 Federal government's so concerned about wildfires.

00:17:48.180 Oh, they're going to get worse.

00:17:51.620 They're going to make life miserable for Canadians. 1.00

00:17:54.140 They're going to be a fact of life from now on.

00:17:56.120 And as we saw, they were worse 36 years ago than they are now.

00:18:00.040 Somehow we got through it then without blaming this phenomenon.

00:18:08.740 How many firefighting aircraft?

00:18:11.280 These are water bombers. 0.98

00:18:12.640 And being in the Air Force, we used to have an air show at Comox every other summer.

00:18:19.400 And I think the last one I was involved with was 1997 or 98.

00:18:27.540 Could have even been 99.

00:18:28.400 Okay, 99, actually.

00:18:30.520 And we used to have a water bomber fly over and it would drop its load on the grass surrounding the runway.

00:18:38.900 And people would just be in awe.

00:18:40.180 So how many water bombers do you think the federal government has?

00:18:42.620 Zero.

00:18:44.560 How about BC?

00:18:45.420 BC should be concerned about all of its green growth.

00:18:51.840 And no, zero.

00:18:55.040 Ontario and Alberta, once again, are leading the country in firefighting aircraft, just as they were in funding to combat wildfires.

00:19:06.880 Alberta has 18.

00:19:08.740 Ontario has 20.

00:19:09.700 Saskatchewan has 17.

00:19:11.420 Nova Scotia, 4.

00:19:16.140 New Brunswick, well, 12.

00:19:20.840 And I'm missing Newfoundland Labrador.

00:19:25.700 Where are you here?

00:19:30.440 Go ahead.

00:19:31.920 Zero.

00:19:33.160 So Newfoundland Labrador has zero of these things.

00:19:36.840 So that's the state of affairs here with how governments really consider wildfires to be a clear and present danger, an existential threat to Canadians.

00:19:51.220 What they really consider wildfires to be is a justification for climate change policies, for net zero policies.

00:19:57.880 That's how they use wildfires. 0.77

00:19:59.880 And I think that is not only dishonest, it's potentially bordering on criminal, because they were allowing wildfires to get worse.

00:20:14.880 And the worse they get, the more they can say, we were right.

00:20:19.440 This is all about climate change.

00:20:21.720 A couple of other things to discuss in the show here.

00:20:25.940 Thank you so much.

00:20:26.980 And please share this broadcast right now with your friends and family.

00:20:35.760 And I was just reminded, we're well over 61,000 subscribers.

00:20:41.440 Closing in on 65,000.

00:20:43.440 So thank you for all your support.

00:20:46.620 Sometimes I miss that.

00:20:47.940 But you recall, after the conservatives and federal conservatives lost the federal election to the liberals and Mark Kearney, there were calls from the conservative caucus to get rid of Jenny Byrne, who was the campaign manager for Peer Polio and had been the campaign manager in the very unsuccessful Stephen Harper campaign in 2015.

00:21:16.120 Which I think was essentially a botched campaign.

00:21:19.640 Harvard could have won that campaign.

00:21:21.660 And we probably would have at least had four years less of Justin Drew.

00:21:28.100 But, so what's Jenny Byrne up to?

00:21:31.380 Well, she's still there.

00:21:34.020 And Peer Polio and her have been very close over the years.

00:21:37.040 I'm not going to get into that side of it.

00:21:38.360 But they've been very close over the years.

00:21:40.300 And she's been a key advisor to Peer Polio and the Conservative Party for a long time.

00:21:47.460 And I remember when I was running for a Canadian Alliance nomination.

00:21:54.400 Yes, I was involved in politics in those days.

00:21:56.460 I no longer am.

00:21:57.520 I remember being interviewed by Jenny Byrne at that time.

00:22:01.680 But what's she up to?

00:22:02.820 I am going to, as I said, stay on as an advisor.

00:22:05.820 I am now.

00:22:07.520 I, of course, advise Pierre.

00:22:10.340 I speak to people on a daily basis.

00:22:12.140 And I'm going to continue to do that.

00:22:15.260 But I've stepped back from the day-to-day.

00:22:17.940 And I'm not going to run the next campaign.

00:22:22.080 Rachel Siegel did the interview.

00:22:23.920 She is a host of Beyond a Ballot podcast.

00:22:26.940 All right.

00:22:27.280 Well, listen to a bit of this.

00:22:28.440 I think that's great news.

00:22:29.480 That she's not going to be running the next election.

00:22:32.340 And she joins us now.

00:22:35.500 Rachel, thank you very much for taking the time to speak with us.

00:22:38.240 What was your big takeaway from this interview?

00:22:42.040 I think for me, the really big part of this conversation with Jenny Byrne was the fact that she was so open.

00:22:49.920 I had done background research on Jenny and realized that the biggest part of the equation, her voice, was really missing from the national narrative.

00:23:00.300 And so I went into the interview with two goals.

00:23:02.820 One was to really get who Jenny Byrne is.

00:23:06.340 What does she like to do? 1.00

00:23:07.780 How does she think?

00:23:08.960 What are her values?

00:23:09.820 But also to really dissect the last campaign, because that was a historic campaign, especially for the Conservatives.

00:23:17.620 We saw the Conservatives go from a 22-point lead to losing government.

00:23:22.320 And she was behind that campaign.

00:23:25.120 And so I really wanted to know how she's feeling a couple of months out, whether or not she had regrets, whether or not she still stood behind some of the decisions that she had made during that time.

00:23:36.300 And ultimately, I think what was most surprising is the fact that she answered absolutely everything.

00:23:42.120 There was not one thing that she didn't completely dive into, including her thought processes, anything that she had regretted.

00:23:50.260 And so I thought after leaving that conversation, I thought that was pretty cool.

00:23:53.920 And it was pretty cool to have that on the historical record for the country.

00:23:58.120 And Jenny Byrne made news in this interview telling her or telling you that she will not run the next Conservative election campaign.

00:24:04.500 There has been some internal party fighting about that big lead that the party lost in the end.

00:24:11.780 I'm curious, what do you think her announcement that she will not run the next campaign, what does that mean for Pierre Poliev?

00:24:18.820 For Pierre, I think it means that, you know, he will continue on the path that he has been on.

00:24:24.640 And one of the interesting parts of the conversation that I had with Jenny was the fact that she realized very early on that Pierre had this momentum behind him.

00:24:34.260 She talks about it as the COVID voter, this new Conservative coalition, and the people that were coming out of their parents' basements to go to Pierre Poliev rallies across the country.

00:24:44.800 The woman who... 1.00

00:24:46.260 Yes, and arguably, Jenny Byrne helped destroy that lead because Pierre Poliev was not really allowed.

00:24:54.740 This talk like Pierre Poliev during the election campaign.

00:24:57.120 And I've said this repeatedly over the past couple of months.

00:25:01.280 And I think if Pierre Poliev is the leader of the Conservative Party in the next federal election,

00:25:08.920 I think he will do a lot better talking like Pierre Poliev when somebody isn't whispering in his ear saying,

00:25:16.940 Pierre, say it this way.

00:25:18.300 Pierre, don't talk about the World Economic Forum.

00:25:20.340 Pierre, don't talk about the World Health Organization and the pandemic treaty we signed.

00:25:31.040 Pierre, don't talk about Tamara Leach and Chris Barber and how unjust it is that they have gone through lawfare.

00:25:41.000 And don't talk about anything that might be seen as attacking globalism or enunciating and articulating the real values and issues of the grassroots Conservatives.

00:25:58.860 Don't talk about that.

00:26:00.020 Talk about anything else.

00:26:02.580 And I think it's going to be a great thing for Pierre Poliev in the next election.

00:26:07.480 Now, if you want to watch the interview, I'm not going to put that on.

00:26:10.800 But I think you might be if you're really interested in the saga of Jenny Byrne, that might be the interview for you.

00:26:19.260 But I just wanted to mention that because I think finally, I don't know if it was her.

00:26:23.620 I think it was probably just her decision.

00:26:25.800 I don't think there was any pressure from Pierre Poliev.

00:26:27.880 And I think the caucus really was irrelevant to her in the end.

00:26:33.260 I don't think she really cared.

00:26:35.300 It was about what she wanted to do.

00:26:37.240 Always has been.

00:26:38.460 And she made a decision to step back because probably she's seen that and done that.

00:26:43.520 And it's time to move on.

00:26:44.980 Now, in the time remaining, I want to talk about, I think, what is probably the biggest issue concerning the world.

00:26:54.220 And that's the Alaska Summit Friday.

00:26:57.880 Day after tomorrow.

00:27:00.540 Between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

00:27:04.800 This is going to be an historic summit.

00:27:07.180 And, of course, NATO and the European Union are already lining up behind Ukraine saying, don't give anything away.

00:27:14.140 Like, Donald Trump can't give anything away.

00:27:17.600 It's not his to give away.

00:27:18.660 But I think this is Donald Trump's last chance to continue to say that it's a Biden's war, not mine, and that I'm a peace president.

00:27:32.000 I was elected to negotiate peace around the world, not start foreign wars.

00:27:38.140 But MAGA was all about getting the United States extricated from foreign wars.

00:27:44.480 Stop spending tens, hundreds of billions of dollars destroying other countries around the world and having U.S. servicemen and women killed in combat for what?

00:27:57.920 Because none of these wars have turned out well.

00:28:01.640 Well, in every case, whether it's Afghanistan or Iraq or Syria, the situation is worse now than it was before the United States got involved.

00:28:12.640 As I've said repeatedly over the years, I used to justify and approve of every U.S. war because I thought either they were fighting communism or they were fighting for truth, justice, and the American way.

00:28:28.280 I finally realized one day, in many cases, they were fighting to keep the military industrial establishment rich.

00:28:35.500 And that's exactly what's happened.

00:28:36.860 Let's listen to Donald Trump talk about this coming summit.

00:28:40.140 So, this is really a feel-out meeting, a little bit.

00:28:45.760 And President Putin invited me to get involved.

00:28:50.380 He wants to get involved.

00:28:51.480 I think, I believe, he wants to get it over with.

00:28:53.640 Now, I've said that a few times.

00:28:55.880 And I've been disappointed because I'd have, like, a great call with him.

00:28:59.520 And then missiles would be lobbed into Kiev or some other place.

00:29:02.720 And you'd have 60 people laying on a road dying.

00:29:06.560 I said, that's cold.

00:29:08.000 That's cold.

00:29:08.640 But it's a violent war.

00:29:11.780 Five to 7,000 people a week are dying.

00:29:15.240 And, you know, there's nobody from here.

00:29:17.680 They're all Russian and Ukrainian people and some people from the city.

00:29:21.160 It's a much smaller number.

00:29:22.140 But still, those missiles do damage and they kill a lot of people.

00:29:26.520 But mostly soldiers.

00:29:28.040 And, of course, you know rhinos like Lindsey Graham, senator from South Carolina, Republican, Republican in name only, senator from South Carolina, said, hey, that's the great thing about this war. 0.93

00:29:42.080 It's just Ukrainians dying. 0.99

00:29:43.680 Oh, we just supply the weapons. 0.93

00:29:46.320 Ukrainians can do all the dying. 1.00

00:29:47.840 And, of course, that's not only ghoulish.

00:29:53.720 It's absolutely insane because the Ukrainians have withered their population down to the point through war deaths that are anywhere from 1.5 million to 2 million deaths on the battlefield.

00:30:08.020 These are first World War casualties.

00:30:11.240 These are first World War fatality figures.

00:30:13.940 And there's also been a huge departure from the country.

00:30:20.380 People are emigrating, leaving the country in droves.

00:30:24.280 It's a shell of a country.

00:30:26.000 And it's one reason this war has got the end.

00:30:27.800 And the young soldiers, although in the case of Ukraine, they're getting much older.

00:30:32.500 They're drafting 60-year-olds now.

00:30:35.840 It's a terrible thing to witness.

00:30:38.140 65-year-olds and 16-year-olds and people with Down syndrome.

00:30:42.380 When a country has to draft people off the street, and that's how they shanghai them, like the Royal Navy used to do. 0.99

00:30:52.620 They shanghai people off the street, stuff them in the trucks, put them in uniform, and put them in the front line, and they're probably dead within 24 hours. 1.00

00:31:01.120 No training?

00:31:02.300 Nothing.

00:31:03.940 It's insane.

00:31:05.220 And if you don't think this war is a farce, think about that.

00:31:09.060 Volodymyr Zelensky, President Zelensky of Ukraine, is a dictator. 0.99

00:31:14.620 He's corrupt. 0.93

00:31:15.780 He's lining his pockets with Canadian money, U.S. money, European money. 0.98

00:31:22.320 He's delusional to think he could ever have won this war, or that he can now.

00:31:26.240 He's delusional to think this is about freedom in Ukraine, because he's a dictator who has imprisoned his political enemies, attacked the Christian churches, and leads the most corrupt state in Europe.

00:31:43.140 And no country can sacrifice its teenagers and its old men, and somehow suggest it's doing this for freedom.

00:31:54.800 And I think I have an obligation.

00:31:57.000 Look, this is Joe Biden's war.

00:31:58.760 This is not my war.

00:32:00.480 I made a deal with NATO a month ago.

00:32:03.180 You covered it very accurately, actually.

00:32:04.780 We don't pay anything anymore.

00:32:06.980 You know, we're not paying anything.

00:32:08.580 They are buying things from us, and NATO is paying us.

00:32:11.520 I got it raised from 2% of GDP to 5%, and they're paying us for everything that we send.

00:32:18.960 We're not paying.

00:32:19.820 But Biden approved $350 billion.

00:32:22.880 Europe has spent $100 billion.

00:32:25.720 The money that's been spent...

00:32:27.780 Man, you know, somebody suggested to me, all the money, the billions that we have sent to Ukraine, could have been used to buy some fire, some water bombers.

00:32:40.980 Might have had a better purpose for the country, because all we've done is kept that war going.

00:32:46.460 And Justin Trudeau, Mark Carney, yes, and even Pierre Pauly, they've all been in the same boat marching lockstep on this.

00:32:53.320 Keep the war going, because it's about freedom, and it's not about freedom.

00:32:57.040 It's about Ukraine insisting upon being a part of NATO, which should never have even been considered.

00:33:05.960 NATO should not even be around as an organization anymore.

00:33:08.720 It's past its due date.

00:33:10.520 It's redundant.

00:33:12.500 It is just there to keep the people in power well nourished with money.

00:33:20.080 And NATO has ceased to be an organization with a rational objective.

00:33:28.180 And Trump, you know, having NATO give these weapons to Ukraine makes more economic sense for the United States, but it makes no political or military sense, because it could still lead to the Third World War.

00:33:41.400 And I think Trump gets to that.

00:33:50.080 It's a violent war.

00:33:56.040 Five to seven thousand people a week are dying.

00:33:58.680 And, you know, there's nobody from here.

00:34:01.920 They're all Russian and Ukrainian people and some people from the cities, much smaller number.

00:34:06.360 But still, those missiles do damage and they kill a lot of people, but mostly soldiers.

00:34:13.120 And they're young soldiers, although in the case of Ukraine, they're getting much older.

00:34:17.720 They're drafting 60-year-olds now.

00:34:19.720 It's a terrible thing to witness.

00:34:22.940 And I think I have an obligation.

00:34:24.960 Look, this is Joe Biden's war.

00:34:26.720 This is not my war.

00:34:28.460 I made a deal with NATO a month ago.

00:34:31.140 You covered it very accurately, actually.

00:34:32.920 We don't pay anything anymore.

00:34:34.900 You know, we're not paying anything.

00:34:36.520 They are buying things from us and NATO is paying us.

00:34:39.460 I got it raised from 2% of GDP to 5%.

00:34:43.260 And they're paying us for everything that we send.

00:34:46.880 We're not paying.

00:34:47.360 But Biden approved $350 billion.

00:34:50.940 Europe has spent $100 billion.

00:34:53.780 The money that's been spent and the death is incredible.

00:34:56.860 It's the worst thing that's happened, by far the worst that's happened since World War II.

00:35:01.540 So I'm going in to speak to Vladimir Putin.

00:35:05.860 And I'm going to be telling him, you've got to end this war. 0.95

00:35:08.380 You've got to end it.

00:35:10.080 And he wasn't going to mess with me.

00:35:12.080 This war would have never happened.

00:35:13.760 You know, we had a discussion about it one time and we never had that discussion again.

00:35:18.260 Would have never happened.

00:35:19.940 And when the election was rigged and then Biden took office, which was barely took office, the auto pen took office, bad things started happening. 0.99

00:35:29.880 Bad things, stupid things were said. 0.98

00:35:31.520 And it ended up in a war. 0.97

00:35:33.940 And, you know, the big, and I don't believe this will happen anymore because I have that pretty well covered.

00:35:39.600 This could end up in a third world war.

00:35:41.460 This could have been a third world war.

00:35:42.860 I don't think that's going to happen now.

00:35:45.680 That's probably the most important thing Trump says here.

00:35:50.160 And by the way, whether Trump has been president or not, unless Trump had come down on NATO and said, Ukraine will not become a member of NATO and we have to win that season.

00:36:00.020 Yes, he could have stopped this from becoming a war.

00:36:03.800 That's what broke the camel's back was NATO's insistence that Ukraine become a member.

00:36:09.220 After NATO had promised the imploding Soviet Union not one inch eastward, and of course, they broke that promise very quickly after and started expanding throughout Eastern Europe to literally planning to expand to the doorstep of Russia.

00:36:27.260 And of course, that was unacceptable, just as it was unacceptable for the Soviet Union to have missiles in Cuba in 1962.

00:36:35.020 That was unacceptable.

00:36:36.180 It was unacceptable to make Ukraine a member of NATO so it could be a place for NATO missiles.

00:36:45.160 And Donald Trump might have been able to stop this war before it started if he had come down hard and fast on that.

00:36:52.600 But what he says about the third world war, yes, we are 89 seconds away from midnight on the doomsday clock.

00:37:00.160 I looked this up yesterday.

00:37:01.400 That is a much shorter period of time than it was in 1962, where it was over two minutes in 1962.

00:37:12.420 Actually, I think it was five minutes to midnight.

00:37:14.100 But in 1962, at the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis, it's now 89 seconds to midnight because NATO encroaches upon Russian territory every day.

00:37:30.600 And this could easily become a nuclear conflict if the wrong order is issued, if there's confusion, if somebody does something not exactly as they were told to do, if NATO sends troops into Russia.

00:37:51.520 This could easily become a third world war, and I think that's why, as flawed as Donald Trump is and what he's saying here, he's right because at least he cares about not making this into a third world war.

00:38:07.600 Now, Joe Biden talked about it a couple of times, but obviously wasn't all there.

00:38:13.040 But the American administration, the U.K. administration under Keir Starmer, the French administration under President Emmanuel Macron, they are insane to suggest, well, if the U.S. gives up on Ukraine, we're going to invade Russia.

00:38:29.140 The U.K. has more admirals and battleships, more horses than tanks, an Air Force that can't fly because half of its planes are not operational, and it is in no position to fight Russia any more than France is.

00:38:43.900 And the people of Europe don't want a nuclear war or even a war with Russia.

00:38:48.260 And I'm sick of the mainstream media trumpeting the propaganda of the militarists and the military industrial establishment who want this war because it's going to mean more money in their coffers.

00:39:04.740 It does every time.

00:39:06.860 That's what wars are all about.

00:39:07.980 In the end, most of them are about people making money off of killing people on mass.

00:39:18.920 It's certainly been about that ever since industrialized warfare came into being.

00:39:24.700 You could say that began with the U.S. Civil War, but it became tremendously dominant during the Great War of 1914-1918.

00:39:34.080 That was an industrialized conflict that made billions of dollars for people selling armaments, and they didn't let the deaths of millions, the privation of millions in trenches, being eaten by rats and living in stench and mud, that didn't bother them because it was all about making money.

00:40:00.560 Let's listen to a bit more, Trump.

00:40:04.080 But I thought it was very respectful of Russia is coming to our country as opposed to us going to his country or even a third party place.

00:40:23.380 But I think we'll have constructive conversations.

00:40:27.980 Then after that meeting, immediately, maybe as I'm flying out, maybe as I'm leaving the room, I'll be calling the European leaders who I get along with very well.

00:40:36.680 And, you know, I have a great relationship, I think, with all of them.

00:40:42.620 And I get along with Zelensky, but, you know, I disagree with what he's done.

00:40:46.800 Very, very severely disagree.

00:40:48.420 This is a war that should have never happened, wouldn't have happened.

00:40:51.620 But I'll be speaking to Zelensky.

00:40:53.360 The next meeting will be with Zelensky and Putin or Zelensky and Putin and me.

00:40:58.320 I'll be there if they need.

00:41:00.040 But I want to have a meeting set up between the two leaders.

00:41:03.160 I was a little bothered by the fact that Zelensky was saying, well, I have to get constitutional approval.

00:41:08.760 I mean, he's got approval to go into war and kill everybody.

00:41:12.160 But he needs approval to do a land swap because there'll be some land swapping going on.

00:41:18.060 I know that through Russia and through conversations with everybody.

00:41:22.040 And Trump is finally being realistic about this, that Russia is not going to vacate the Donbass region, the eastern provinces.

00:41:32.720 And they're going to keep those.

00:41:34.320 And Russia is going to insist that Ukraine never become a member of NATO as long as NATO exists.

00:41:39.200 I don't think that's going to be for much longer.

00:41:41.040 But Donald Trump's being realistic.

00:41:42.580 And I think Donald Trump can actually do some good here for world peace.

00:41:47.480 And we'll be watching that summit very carefully.

00:41:50.260 And I think this might be the beginning of the end of the war in Ukraine.

00:41:55.140 Thank God for everybody, especially those Ukrainians who are dying en masse for a corrupt president who is lining his pockets with the money that has been given to him that he has begged and pleaded for around the world. 1.00

00:42:10.780 I'll be back in a minute with some concluding remarks.
