Summary
Two law enforcement officers were shot and killed in the line of duty in Los Angeles, California on Wednesday, and the left-wing corporate enterprise in the United States is helping to pay the bail for the shooter. What will happen when we stop paying bail for anti-police violence?
Transcript
00:00:00.000
you ever watch this guy on television you all were not telling the truth and you should not
00:00:06.100
be trusted congressman matt gates thank you for what you did for your country today be offended
00:00:09.760
with the democratic whip not house republicans like a machine matt gates
00:00:13.940
welcome to hot takes i'm congressman matt gates let's talk about the news two law enforcement
00:00:21.920
officers getting shot sitting in their patrol car in los angeles video from the episode has
00:00:28.860
circulated widely it shows someone in cold blood just walking up to the cop car targeting the
00:00:36.500
officers shooting and then subsequently there was an effort to try to block access to the ambulances
00:00:44.180
and the emergency rooms attempting to provide life-saving care to these brave heroes who are
00:00:50.080
willing to wear the uniform and stand between lawful civil society and the criminal element and make no
00:00:58.480
mistake it is the criminal element that is engaged in this anti-police activity i can't imagine being
00:01:06.660
so craven being so violent and hateful that you would literally be chanting that you want police
00:01:13.700
officers to die as you block entrances to emergency rooms but this is precisely what happened and the
00:01:22.600
left-wing corporate enterprise in the united states is helping to fund this what do you think is going to
00:01:29.160
happen when you tell people that you're going to pay their bail for their crimes because you're sympathetic
00:01:34.780
to their plight well that's not going to cause people to be more helpful or more cooperative or more
00:01:42.760
peaceful it's only going to increase the extent of the negative violence and we see that on display so we pray for
00:01:50.600
all of our law enforcement officers and their families we especially pray for those impacted by
00:01:57.580
this horrible act of violence and we've got to get our act together as a country we've got to crack down
00:02:04.100
on these types of attacks and i fully agree with president trump when he said that if someone kills a law
00:02:11.580
enforcement officer in the united states of america they should face the death penalty and i hope the
00:02:18.000
individual who did these killings gets the death penalty if law enforcement officers die you know they
0.94
00:02:25.160
absolutely deserve it in those circumstances frankly it's why we have the death penalty so that we can create
00:02:31.600
sufficient deterrence and we have to utilize the death penalty with sufficient speed for there to be a
00:02:38.380
deterrent value and i agree with the president on that as well
00:02:41.880
microsoft's potential acquisition of chinese-based tiktok is apparently over unsuccessful microsoft
00:02:54.240
posting to their blog that bite dance which is the parent company to tiktok has rejected their offer
00:02:59.600
now it looks like oracle is in the driver's seat i mentioned my concerns about microsoft making this
00:03:06.260
acquisition microsoft has been very cozy in their relationship with china they've got an ai center
00:03:13.040
in china and i wasn't entirely confident that this was a move that was going to fully vindicate
00:03:19.860
the president's desire to protect our national security by stopping china's ability to spy on millions
0.99
00:03:27.780
of americans through this application used by so many american teenagers and others oracle saw their
00:03:34.580
stocks rise about five percent with the news they will take a substantial position within the company
00:03:41.080
and they will provide the cloud computing services that will allow us to have a greater sense of
00:03:47.540
certainty that china is not using this dual use technology for purposes that are detrimental to u.s
00:03:55.880
national security so good to see the president's plan being executed to end chinese ownership of tiktok in
00:04:02.680
the united states also good to see microsoft not getting a windfall based on their relationship
00:04:08.260
with china let's hope that oracle is the right partner i have often discussed on the podcast the real
00:04:17.240
danger that comes with chinese drones occupying american spies with dual use technology with the desire
0.91
00:04:26.280
the wherewithal and the technical capability to assess american critical infrastructure
00:04:31.640
and then maybe use that for china's benefit or maybe sell it on the open market to some nefarious actor
00:04:38.920
that would want to do harm to our country i've called on the attorney general to ban dji drones those are the
0.96
00:04:45.500
chinese manufactured drones in the united states of america i've called on him at a bare minimum to stop u.s
0.95
00:04:53.460
law enforcement from acquiring these drones and flying them around our communities but if we are going to prevail
00:05:00.420
in the drone wars it is going to require enhanced american innovation and on that front we have
00:05:07.340
fantastic news from the america first defense contracting company andrel flame of the west
00:05:14.360
and the american company andrel founded by one of our good friends palmer lucky the founder of oculus
00:05:21.840
has built the smartest drone in the world it's the ghost 4 it's waterproof it has artificial intelligence
00:05:29.420
and swarming capabilities take a listen to palmer lucky on mornings with maria discussing andrel and
00:05:37.160
the next generation of drone technology the men and women who are serving on the front lines fighting
00:05:41.560
for our freedom deserve the very best technology previous versions of ghost have been used by u.s
00:05:46.300
forces and allied forces including the uk royal marines future commando force for quite some time now
00:05:52.640
and as we've worked with them we've asked what do you want to see in a drone what do you want to see
00:05:56.340
that right now is only available in chinese drones uh and ghost 4 is kind of the result of that we
00:06:01.560
wanted to make something that was the best drone in the world that you can carry around anyway you
00:06:05.800
know uh it can be flown from anywhere in the world like a predator but that's where the similarities end
00:06:10.540
it's a fully autonomous drone that can be viewed you've linked to by anyone anywhere in the world but
00:06:15.920
it can can be carried in a very small backpack it actually packs into a carry case smaller than a dji
00:06:20.660
inspire which is pretty incredible um it's almost it's nearly silent it can fly for over a hundred
00:06:25.740
minutes on a standard with with a with a standard battery pack and payload um and most importantly
00:06:31.180
you can treat it more like a real person in a real aircraft because of the onboard ai core
00:06:36.420
and less like a remote controlled airplane you can give it tasks like going out and finding people
00:06:41.140
going out and tracking a vehicle patrolling a perimeter autonomously and they can actually do this
00:06:45.680
in large swarms as well so they're designed from the start to be an ai teaming based aircraft where
00:06:51.280
you can have dozens of airframes controlled by a single operator and that's a capability that is a
00:06:59.060
venus is the brightest object in most clear skies and it may be the newest place to look for life
00:07:09.120
the new york times has the story that some scientists have now been observing the gases that exist in the
00:07:17.200
atmosphere of venus and they are finding particles that they believe could be the result of life in that
00:07:25.220
atmosphere now we typically have viewed mars as more likely to have a life forms on it as a consequence of
00:07:32.600
a frozen water and the topography there venus has a far higher temperature it's obviously closer to
00:07:40.040
the sun but up in the atmosphere in those gases there may be evidence of life so the next uh step in this
00:07:47.720
process is to use additional telescopic evidence and then potentially to collect microbes so that we have
00:07:54.920
the opportunity for analysis very exciting we might not be alone and additional life might be a lot
00:08:03.420
andrew gillam oh andrew today in an interview he comes out as a bisexual you'll remember andrew gillam
00:08:15.240
he ran for governor in florida he lost a close race to my good friend ron desantis and then subsequently
00:08:21.560
was found in a miami beach hotel room with a male escort a nurse a disco ball erectile dysfunction
00:08:30.720
injections uh and methamphetamine andrew was not conscious when he was found by police
00:08:37.620
he was allowed to go home without incident without arrest or charge for anything and today we see
00:08:46.020
what is the beginning i guess of the andrew gillam political comeback and the story kind of goes
00:08:51.460
something like this he's not gay he's bisexual he and his wife have an agreement i don't know what that
00:08:59.600
is and i don't particularly care here's my hot take i don't care about andrew gillam's sexuality
0.63
00:09:06.360
as much as i cared about his socialism andrew gillam's bisexuality wasn't going to endanger the
00:09:13.300
people of florida but the policies that he had implemented as mayor of tallahassee had resulted in
00:09:19.400
higher crime economic flight corruption and the guy even took illicit free gifts from an undercover
00:09:28.700
fbi agent he took hamilton tickets and while he claimed there was nothing wrong with that it was
00:09:33.580
okay it was a swap for some jay-z tickets from his brother that it was all fine well after the election
00:09:41.940
you see andrew gillam have to plead no contest with the ethics commission pay a five thousand dollar fine
00:09:48.460
admit that he was wrong and i think that is just a lot more telling about who andrew gillam is than who
00:09:55.520
chooses to sleep with but here's what doesn't add up about the gillam story he says that he wasn't up
00:10:02.560
there engaged in any sort of sex act with his companion despite the disco ball and so forth that
00:10:10.500
he was up there drinking like a friendship or other normal relationship again these are his descriptions
00:10:17.920
on the tamara hall show now is anyone buying that i mean if if you're going to be authentic andrew if
00:10:23.840
you're going to come out and just be like look i'm bisexual my wife's cool with it every once in a
1.00
00:10:29.020
while i engage in activities outside the marriage i think that it would not be for anyone other than
00:10:35.500
andrew gillam's wife to pass judgment on that or or have a view on it but when you come out and say
00:10:41.780
well i want to live my truth and i want to be authentic i'm a bisexual man but the disco ball and
00:10:47.880
the injections and the meth and all of that going on in a miami beach hotel room that was just a
00:10:53.680
couple of friends hanging out it does seem to erode the authenticity of the point that gillam is trying
00:10:59.340
to make so i don't wish negativity on anyone i hope andrew and his wife and their family are able to
00:11:06.380
thrive as you know this is obviously a challenging time for them but don't go on tv plotting your
00:11:13.800
political comeback trying to tell the american people and the people of florida that you were
00:11:19.020
not up to something that you were clearly up to just own it next time andrew
00:11:23.560
there are dead monkeys in the chili peppers that's what u.s customs and border patrol found
00:11:33.760
the miami herald has the story endangered primate found dead in shipment of chili peppers
00:11:40.180
mailed to the united states and this came from thailand and in addition to the i guess monkey
00:11:47.380
it's called a loricid that was found there were numerous dried frogs and insects a few turtles and
00:11:56.020
the shipment was intended for buffalo new york it was intercepted and it appears most of these dead
00:12:04.000
animals that were dried and saved in the chili peppers are endangered so who knows
00:12:10.040
if this was some kind of weird asian traditional medicine thing where people were trying to get
00:12:17.000
ingredients but i am probably going to lay off the chili peppers for a little while knowing that
00:12:23.340
they were utilized to mummify and ship a bunch of dead endangered animals
00:12:29.560
iranian champion wrestler navid afkari has been executed in iran on saturday this according to iran's
00:12:41.320
state-run news agency the 27 year old was executed in prison he had been sentenced to death in relation
00:12:48.680
to the murder of the iranian government's water and sewage department's security agent during a series of
00:12:55.640
protests and the international olympic committee said it was shocked by the announcement uh and
00:13:01.080
concerned uh certainly that you've got someone uh so high profile uh who uh the iranians appear to
00:13:09.080
have taken out as a consequence of politics not as a consequence of any actual murder but because they
00:13:15.560
don't like it when somebody starts uh getting attention in their criticism of the iranian regime
00:13:21.480
here's my hot take iran is playing with fire they already have very negative economic conditions for
00:13:28.460
their people they've already lied to their people about shooting down a commercial airliner they've
0.98
00:13:34.000
seen substantial civil unrest and if they keep this crap up the regime is unlikely to hold it's my belief
0.95
00:13:41.660
that the more the iranian government declares war on their own people through really what appears to be
0.95
00:13:49.540
an extrajudicial killing i mean i know that they claim the trial and the murder and all that but
00:13:55.140
what you're really looking at here is the iranian government's desire to get rid of someone who is
1.00
00:14:00.320
a critic and the more they do that the more critics they will acquire and they're not going to be able
00:14:05.540
to kill all of them but the iranian revolution that is needed is a revolution led by the iranian people
00:14:12.460
not by the united states not by saudi arabia not by external forces because what the iranian regime
0.98
00:14:19.240
wants to do is externalize their conflict create the notion of some evil satan other that they can
00:14:26.200
attempt to rally some sense of nationalism around but they erode any possibility for that type of
00:14:33.120
loyal nationalism when they kill their own national athletes and the folks that the people look up to
00:14:40.120
so this appears to be yet another rash decision by a terrorist regime and their people should ultimately
00:14:47.400
hold their government accountable for it joe rogan the podcast king is perhaps set to moderate a
00:14:58.360
presidential debate president trump agreeing that he would participate in a debate that was proposed by
00:15:05.500
joe rogan on his show we remain to see whether or not joe biden would be willing to do that but i think
00:15:12.440
it would be good for the country the mainstream media has had a monopoly on presidential debates for far
00:15:19.520
too long when you look at the lies the mainstream media tells when you look at the bias that is
00:15:24.940
inherent in their production and in their frame on questions maybe having more like the kind of
00:15:31.480
regular joe rogan situation unfold before the country would be more authentic would be more fair
00:15:37.600
joe rogan enjoys moderating debates even when he doesn't have the debaters directly before him
00:15:44.980
that's the magic of his show he finds these fights or areas of conflict or circumstance around the
00:15:51.740
country and he sort of presents the issues and then weaves through the various dynamics of of that
00:15:58.900
conflict so what better platform than the joe rogan show for a fantastic presidential debate
00:16:05.920
i hope it happens but not so sure joe biden's looking forward to the debates i discussed the
00:16:12.580
biden campaign his challenges on steve hilton's show last night take a listen if donald trump gets more
00:16:18.380
than 40 percent of the latino vote this election is going to be over and in pretty early in states like
00:16:23.200
florida and arizona where that's a substantial portion of the electorate the critical question in this
00:16:27.960
election is who can revive the american economy and who can put down the mob joe biden is having a
00:16:34.540
real crisis of competence his effort looks less like a presidential campaign on many days and more
00:16:40.680
like elder abuse just because he's sort of wandering around uh unable to get out of the basement under most
00:16:47.320
conditions he can't summon a crowd he can't summon a nation in a lot of his interviews he can't even
00:16:52.860
summon a complete sentence last night on the next revolution i joined steve hilton and jared kushner
00:17:02.740
senior advisor and son-in-law to the president was also on the program discussing the tremendous
00:17:07.840
progress the trump administration has made in the middle east and if you've seen the news you
00:17:13.260
understand that the uae and bahrain have made these very consequential peace deals with israel
00:17:20.040
they're going to result in diplomatic relationships more trade more economic cooperation it does bear
00:17:26.980
some comparison between this administration and the last administration on the handling of the
00:17:33.540
middle east i mean barack obama and joe biden handed the biggest terrorist organization in the
00:17:40.000
middle east also known as iran a hell of a lot of money and a license to go build a nuclear weapon
00:17:46.860
that made the region less safe less stable and it allowed terrorism to be funded at a far higher
00:17:55.520
extent not just in the middle east but around the world where iran provokes and encourages and funds
00:18:02.220
terrorism instead of taking that approach the trump administration has withdrawn troops they have
00:18:09.040
killed the terrorists including the leader of al-qaeda on the arabian peninsula and also qasem
00:18:16.260
who was leading the quds force which utilized a lot of these proxy forces and militias throughout the
00:18:23.320
middle east to destabilize governments and and raise a really negative ruckus and it cost american lives
00:18:31.720
and it's cost far too much american treasure as well so as we're withdrawing troops i think that it it
00:18:38.640
forces in a way a lot of these emerging gulf monarchies like the uae and cutter to go ahead
00:18:46.440
and roll up their sleeves get at the peacemaking table and work something out so i'm grateful for
00:18:52.360
the progress take a listen to jared kushner's take and mine as well everyone was saying that president
00:18:57.460
trump would be creating wars he's not he's making peace deals we have a peace negotiation this weekend
00:19:02.380
that secretary pompeo's in in afghanistan that's a war that our past politicians got us into and
00:19:07.180
weren't able to end we're bringing our troops home and again the american people want to see results
00:19:11.420
and ultimately they're going to look at what's better for them what's better for their families
00:19:14.620
and when they look at that question they say who do i want representing us against china and against
00:19:18.780
these other countries i think that they'll see that president trump he's a tough guy but it takes a
00:19:23.180
tough guy to fix the country and to uh to get us to where we need to be the trump doctrine is thriving
00:19:28.160
throughout the world and creating conditions for a cascading peace president trump's decision to
00:19:33.760
withdraw troops from the middle east is directly tied to these peace settlements with less precious
00:19:39.680
american blood and treasure to squander or weaponize against one another it turns out the kingdoms of
0.65
00:19:45.820
the middle east can actually make peace rather than war prior presidents wandered around in these deserts
00:19:52.480
for 40 years like moses president trump's getting the job done in just four years imagine what he'll do
00:19:58.340
with another four the trump administration has announced a plan to get our troop levels down to
00:20:03.760
about 4 500 in afghanistan they were well over 8 000 when president trump took office and president
00:20:11.200
trump is keeping his promise to disentangle our country from these never-ending middle east wars now
00:20:18.460
these actions won't be popular with the boltonistas with the liz cheney crowd with the military industrial
00:20:26.860
complex and the armchair generals but it is popular with the american people and it is also productive
00:20:33.480
because as the president is announcing these troop drawdowns we are seeing historic progress in talks
00:20:39.900
between the afghan government and the taliban now do i trust the taliban no would i expect that there
00:20:46.500
likely will continue to be violence in afghanistan well yes i think there's been violence in afghanistan in
00:20:53.500
one form or another for all of my life and certainly throughout the course of human history in that part
00:21:00.120
of the world but we cannot be a country that follows every potential terrorist into every potential cave all
00:21:07.500
around the world at the expense of american lives and at the expense of america's prosperity it is far better
00:21:16.060
to become more resilient at home to utilize technology better and to encourage people to win and earn and
00:21:24.040
negotiate for and even potentially die for their own peace because peace is not something that can be bought
00:21:31.320
with the blood of u.s service members alone our military members and their families are so precious that we
00:21:38.740
should never allow them to expire on the battlefield when there is unknowable gain when there is not a
00:21:46.040
clear strategy and where the conflict is a mechanism largely to maintain profits for major defense
00:21:55.300
contractors who benefit from the billions upon billions of dollars in unaccounted for funding that
00:22:02.100
exists when we're at war so i always believe if we're gonna send folks down range they absolutely have
00:22:08.480
to have the equipment and training to prevail decisively every single time but that does not mean that we have
00:22:15.600
to spend another 10 20 30 years in afghanistan i'm proud that president trump is bringing down troop
00:22:22.580
levels and achieving peace in the process thanks for listening to hot takes i'm congressman matt gates
