00:00:52.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:59.000Of course, we're still working on last year's budget.
00:02:03.000They don't do anything in regular order here, Charlie.
00:02:05.000Chuck Schumer and even some of the Republicans just love these omnibus and these minibuses where they can just pour all the pork in there they possibly can get.
00:02:14.000And it's, I don't know what it's, they don't understand is we're 35 trillion in debt and we continue to put money in a situation that we can't fund.
00:02:25.000And of course, a lot of the money they'll find in this budget, they're going to find money for Ukraine.
00:02:31.000They're going to find money to do everything they possibly can to continue to push this wokeism across the country.
00:02:38.000And, you know, they do not do anything for the American people.
00:02:42.000And the one thing that just continues to upset me is: why would we ever vote for a dime until we close the Dane border?
00:02:50.000I mean, it is a necessity that we do something about that border in the future.
00:02:58.000And so then, can you kind of go through some of the specifics that Senator Michael East says, the firm, meaning Schumer and McConnell, will soon release a huge spending bill to keep the government funded past Friday.
00:03:20.000You know, there's one group, our appropriation group.
00:03:23.000They put a lot of time and effort into this, but at the end of the day, we always give in to everything that they want and not what we want.
00:03:56.000But at the end of the day, it's sending money to the UN.
00:04:00.000It's sending money to all these NGOs that are funneling money to these migrants that are coming up the border.
00:04:07.000There's a lot of things that we could put in there in terms of keeping money from going out of the country to all this climate hoax that they're pushing on us.
00:04:16.000But, you know, they keep telling us, you know, we need 60 billion for Ukraine.
00:04:22.000They're not going to get 60 billion in this one, but they're going to get hundreds of millions.
00:04:26.000They always find money from somewhere.
00:04:59.000You're doing your best to fulfill that.
00:05:01.000I just wish that senators had concern.
00:05:03.000And I don't want to overly speculate, but I don't understand how a senator can be loyal to this country and love this country and not take the mounting national debt seriously.
00:05:14.000The one thing that I've recognized, and you know, I'm not a politician.
00:05:17.000I was a football coach and educator and coming up three years ago, kind of wondering how this place is run.
00:05:22.000Well, they feel like they've always got to get something done.
00:05:26.000But the problem is it's always done by the way of spending, of helping people, spending money.
00:05:31.000We can help a lot of people up here if we start cutting the money that's being spent, cutting back on the things that need to be cut back on.
00:05:39.000We're up above 23 million federal employees now, Charlie.
00:05:46.000One little example is when President Trump came into office, he did a merit-based evaluation of our VA, which is way, it's the biggest healthcare system in the world.
00:05:58.000And there was a lot of people that weren't doing their job that were actually had a hand in some of our veterans dying and when they went to the hospital.
00:06:06.000So he did an evaluation of there were 2,000 people that were let go in the VA while he was in office.
00:06:15.000Joe Biden, since he's come back in, he's reinstated all of those people back into their jobs and give them back pay.
00:06:22.000I mean, nobody ever pays the price for anything to do with doing their job right up here.
00:07:47.000I mean, that's just another detriment to our society that, number one, they hate us over here, and it's just going to be a detriment to the American taxpayers.
00:07:55.000And we're already a third world country.
00:07:57.000Everybody says we're going to turn into a third world country.
00:08:22.000Divide the country in all areas, all situations, divide our country and have everybody hating and pushing back on each other and then dumbing down our country.
00:08:32.000They have dumbed our country down so much through the educational system.
00:08:35.000And that's one of the reasons I ran because I've seen it up close and personal as a football coach of recruiting kids.
00:08:41.000This year, our ACT and SCT scores were the lowest ever in 25 to 30 years, lowest ever.
00:10:35.000Now, here's what most people don't know.
00:10:36.000Taking just any magnesium supplement won't solve your problem because most supplements use the cheapest kind that your body can't use or absorb.
00:11:22.000Well, I was in Utah campaigning for Trent Staggs, who's going to be a very good senator if we can get him in the seat that Mitt Romney is vacating.
00:11:31.000I was out there and they asked me what I thought in the direction this country are going.
00:12:06.000And it's not the religion of any Bible that I've ever read.
00:12:09.000You know, Churchill said that education is the gospel of envy.
00:12:15.000And all the left has done since I've been here.
00:12:17.000Everything they've touched, everything they passed, they've done something to destroy the country that our forefathers built, not anything that goes by the Constitution.
00:12:29.000Look at what they've done to our cities.
00:12:31.000My gosh, starting with the education and then the destruction of the people.
00:12:38.000You know, liberalism and socialism in these cities are making it worse and worse.
00:12:43.000They've ruined education, sex education, or schools.
00:12:46.000And look what they're doing, transitioning young kids before they even reach teenage years.
00:12:52.000And if that's not a satanic cult, I don't know what is.
00:12:56.000It is from the pit of hell to say that a 13-year-old should get on Lupron and have their breasts removed.
00:13:02.000Last evening, Coach, we had several detransitioners.
00:13:05.000These are young people that were led into the demonic trans cult, and they now have regret.
00:13:12.000And, you know, Coach, just really quick, I usually don't look to Europe for guidance, but do you have a reaction on how the NHS and the United Kingdom have now banned puberty blockers for children?
00:13:23.000And we in America are actually expanding it and calling it health care.
00:14:08.000I have a hard time sleeping at night seeing what goes on up here and how these Democrats just fall in line with each other.
00:14:14.000I know some of these Democrats don't believe in all these things, but they vote that way just because they want power.
00:14:20.000They want senator in front of their name.
00:14:22.000And they're here just as a picture on the wall.
00:14:25.000They make no decisions other than getting that money to campaign and win.
00:14:32.000It breaks your heart to see what they're doing to the country that our forefathers have built.
00:14:37.000It really is sick, Coach, because here they are.
00:14:39.000They're supposed to, they take an oath to the United States Constitution and loyalty to the country.
00:14:43.000And you say that they have deeply held beliefs and they vote differently because they want to still be called senator and they want to be treated in some dignified way.
00:14:54.000So, Coach, I also want to get your reaction to the bloodbath controversy that was at the Bernie Moreno get out the vote rally.
00:15:01.000How should we think about this, Coach?
00:15:05.000I don't hear bloodbath up here from both sides.
00:15:08.000And there's bloodbath is looked at different ways when you're looking at things that are being torn down.
00:15:16.000Of course, we've all seen President Trump's speech, and he is exactly right.
00:15:21.000And I'm told even we have five or six car manufacturers in the state of Alabama, and I've gone to each one of them and said, you keep billing these EV cars and listening to the federal government, we will have to bail you out.
00:15:32.000Basically, at the end of the day, it is going to be a bloodbath for our car manufacturers.
00:15:37.000They're going to have to eat every one of these EV cars, or maybe not all of them.
00:15:47.000And we cannot keep going down this road of this climate hoax and to put all the movement in one direction when we have to start going back and drilling and pumping oil and gas.
00:15:58.000You can't run a country without oil and gas.
00:16:01.000But for some reason, these people are trying to trick people into doing something that's wrong.
00:16:06.000And that's the reason he used bloodbath because that's exactly the word should be used because we are going to take a bath, the federal government, the taxpayers, people that send all their money up here.
00:16:18.000And we're going to bail these people out again because the federal government is forcing them to do something that's wrong.
00:17:40.000They're a wonderful, wonderful product.
00:17:41.000So check it out right now at mypatriotsupply.com.
00:17:47.000Joining us now is the terrific Caroline Glick.
00:17:50.000Caroline, thank you so much for taking the time.
00:17:53.000Super interested to get an update from you, senior contributing editor from the Jewish News Syndicate and host of the Caroline Glick Show.
00:18:00.000Yesterday, I was on campus, Caroline, at San Diego State University, and the number one topic that we discussed was Israel.
00:18:07.000It is the number one topic, and the amount of anti-Semitism, anti-Israel sentiments on the ground, as you well know, is remarkable.
00:18:15.000And the misinformation is just so hard to deprogram and unpack.
00:18:20.000But Caroline, give us an update of the latest on the ground of the war that is still unfolding in Gaza.
00:18:25.000So really, we've been having major tactical successes in Gaza from the very outset.
00:18:32.000I mean, we've outperformed anything that any military has ever done.
00:18:35.000I had Colonel John Spencer from West Point on my podcast last week, and he was explaining to me that, quite simply, no military in the world has ever fought an enemy like Hamas.
00:18:47.000It has the most powerful defensive positions any army has ever had.
00:18:51.000They have 400 miles of underground tunnels.
00:18:55.000And Israel figured out a way to fight in tunnels, something that no army has ever done, and actually turn their tactical advantage against them because our forces are just doing stunning work.
00:19:08.000And we're doing it with the lowest ratio of militant to civilian casualties in the history of warfare right now.
00:19:18.000It's something like one to one or one to 1.3, which is lower than any army has ever achieved ever.
00:19:25.000And so that's what's going on on the ground.
00:19:27.000We have one major strategic target we have left to attack, which is the southernmost enclave inside of the Gaza Strip.
00:19:35.000It's a town called Rafah, and it abuts the border between Gaza and Egypt.
00:19:42.000So it's a critical target to end Hamas's effective existence as a military because they have the last four out of 24 battalions are holed up in Rafah.
00:19:56.000And so Israel has been poised to enter Rafah and conquer the city and the international border for many weeks, but we've been stopped and stymied by pressure from the Biden administration, which for some reason, while they say that they share Israel's goal of eliminating Hamas, which obviously we need to do in order to survive after what they did to us on October 7th, and yet they've been undermining our efforts to achieve that goal really from the outset.
00:20:24.000And now it's sort of come to a denouement over the planned and required operation in Rafah.
00:20:33.000And so we're sort of at a crisis with the Biden administration over that.
00:20:38.000Yeah, and the Biden administration, I mean, Joe Biden recently was getting ice cream and he says, oh, yeah, we're going to have a ceasefire soon.
00:20:44.000Not to mention you have Chuck Schumer that's calling for regime change for Israel in the midst of a war.
00:20:50.000And so can you just go into specifics?
00:20:53.000Because Joe Biden is playing it both ways and he can't have it both ways.
00:20:57.000He's trying to quell a domestic political problem where a base of the Democrat Party being first and second generation Arab Muslim Americans that are no longer supporting him and they're worried about that.
00:21:08.000But secondly, Joe Biden is trying to also appease Democrat Jews that are pro-Israel because he still wants them to be engaged and involved in his coalition.
00:21:19.000So can you just go to specifically how is the Biden administration undercutting Israel's operation?
00:21:26.000So there are a number of things that they're doing.
00:21:28.000One of them, again, is that both President Biden in a phone conversation with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu yesterday and his national security advisor, Jake Sullivan, both insisted that the United States oppose, based on their great military knowledge of the situation, an Israeli grand operation in Rafah.
00:22:26.000So they're trying to stymie Israel there.
00:22:28.000They've been multiplying every day reports that the United States has essentially halted weapons shipments to Israel.
00:22:36.000And, you know, we started this war deeply dependent on American ammunition, tank shells, artillery shells, aircraft, Air Force ordnance in particular.
00:22:47.000And the United States has been slow walking the resupply of the Israeli military for several weeks.
00:22:54.000And on the other hand, Israel has massively ramped up domestic production lines as well.
00:22:59.000But it's always sort of a race against time.
00:23:01.000Are we going to be able to get the domestic production lines up and running to the extent that we need to in order to continue to fight?
00:23:08.000I mean, as Prime Minister Netanyahu said yesterday in a speech to AIPAC's leadership that was here visiting, you know, we'll fight with our fingernails if that's all that's left with us, because the fact is that this is a war for Israel's very existence.
00:23:19.000We saw the stakes on October 7th, and we simply can't allow Hamas to continue to exist.
00:23:25.000And so, you know, the United States is slowing down weapons shipments or stopping them and threatening to stop them altogether.
00:23:33.000You get that from the progressive caucus in the Senate led by Bernie Sanders and Chris Van Hollen and others.
00:23:41.000And you get it from the pro-Hamas Democrats in the House as well.
00:23:47.000And it's becoming more and more dangerous as a result.
00:23:52.000And then there's also the threat that the United States is going to either stand back and allow a ceasefire resolution to go through at the UN Security Council that would require Israel to stop fighting or face international sanction, or that it's going to pass its own resolution in the Security Council that's also going to very partially constrain Israel's independence of action.
00:24:18.000So in all of these various things, the Democrats as a party and the Biden administration more generally are undercutting Israel.
00:24:26.000And then I guess the last thing you alluded to, Senator Schumer's extraordinary, really atrocious statement where he called for the ouster of our democratically elected Prime Minister Netanyahu, something that, you know, that's the kind of thing that Biden does when he's talking about Russian President Vladimir Putin and other U.S. adversaries.
00:24:48.000I don't think that there's ever been a case where the United States has called for regime change in an allied democracy.
00:24:53.000And yet, you know, that kind of effort to destabilize Israel politically also obviously works in favor of Hamas.
00:25:41.000Yeah, you know how for years, really since Obama came into office, but certainly since President Trump entered office in 2017, we've heard a lot of talk in the U.S. media about the so-called civil war within the Democratic Party between moderates and progressives.
00:26:00.000And unfortunately, it seems that that war ended with Schumer's speech because he was always considered to be a leader of the moderate branch of the Democratic Party, in particular in relation to Israel.
00:26:16.000And yet here he was giving arguably the most anti-Israel speech that we've heard in a long time.
00:26:24.000Certainly there's a lot of competition, I guess, in that field, but a deeply, deeply hostile speech.
00:26:29.000Because one of the things that was interesting when he talked about a two-state solution, that is the establishment of a Palestinian state in Israel's heartland.
00:26:37.000You know, after we saw what happened in Gaza, Gaza has been an independent political entity, a mini-state since 2005 when Israel left and transferred it locks back and barrel to the Palestinians.
00:26:48.000So Israelis realize that that's what we can look forward to if you get a state.
00:26:52.000And that's in southern Israel in an area that's populated but much less spark, much more sparsely populated than a Palestinian state in the so-called West Bank in Judea and Samaria, which abuts Jerusalem and Tel Aviv and every major urban center in Israel.
00:27:09.000And the Palestinian Authority, which supports what Hamas did, is much better armed than Hamas is.
00:27:17.000And so, you know, Israelis completely soured as a nation of a Palestinian state on October 7th.
00:27:25.000And here is Schumer saying that the only people in Israel who oppose it are Prime Minister Netanyahu and members of his coalition.
00:27:32.000You have upwards of 80% of Israeli Jews who oppose it, and you have upwards of 70% of Israelis, including Israeli Arabs, who oppose it.
00:27:40.000So, you know, it's a very strange thing where the administration and Schumer have both tried to have tried to limit the criticism to Netanyahu personally and pretend that they only oppose him.
00:27:55.000But any other prime minister who could likely take his place at any time in the foreseeable future would be implementing the exact same policies as Netanyahu because these are the policies that are required by the demands of the hour, and also because these are the policies that are demanded by a consensus, a consensus of Israeli public opinion.
00:28:19.000So, you know, Israel is a democracy and our leaders are accountable to the public.
00:28:24.000And these are the policies, the policies that Netanyahu is advancing, that the Israeli public is demanding that he advance.

00:29:37.000So, Caroline Glick, thank you for continuing with us.
00:29:40.000I'm going to do my best to paraphrase just some of the mantra of the activists.
00:29:45.000Here's one that they would say, Caroline: They say that Israel has killed 30,000 civilians and that it's not a fair fight, and that Israel has sophisticated weaponry and Hamas does not.
00:29:55.000And look at all the civilians that are dead.
00:30:01.000One is that the 30,000 number is not correct.
00:30:07.000It's probably something more along the lines of maybe high 20s, but at least 13,000 of those dead are terrorists.
00:30:18.000The other thing you have to bear in mind is that all the casualty data is actually Hamas propaganda because the often quoted or always quoted Gaza Health Ministry is run by Hamas.
00:30:31.000So, what you're saying is take the terrorists at their word, that all of these, that this is the number of people who have been killed, but also that all of them are civilians.
00:30:42.000That is, Israel hasn't killed any terrorists in Gaza.
00:30:45.000They're all civilians and they're overwhelmingly women and children.
00:30:53.000We have, again, I think we mentioned in the earlier segment that Israel has the lowest ratio of terrorists to civilians killed in history.
00:31:04.000It's one to one or one to 1.3 terrorists to civilians.
00:31:09.000No military in the history of warfare has had or has had a ratio that low.
00:31:15.000So actually, even by Hamas's own data, which is untrue, you still come to the point where you realize that Israel has taken, gone to greater lengths and been more successful in avoiding civilian deaths than the United States, than any other military in human history.
00:31:35.000So that's the one thing that you have to understand.
00:31:38.000And the other thing that you have to understand, you had two points there.
00:31:54.000They'd say, oh, the war has been ongoing and that what are you supposed to expect when you blockade a people, which is such a reprehensible form of argumentation.
00:32:05.000It justifies the slaughter of what happened on October 7th.
00:32:26.000So this is not true because what we have is the Hamas, they didn't commit a terrorist attack on October 7th.
00:32:34.000They invaded Israel with a division-level force of thousands of armed and trained gunmen who had specific targets that they had to reach, seize control over, and then conduct slaughters, rapes, and take hostages.
00:32:53.000They had that assault on Israel, that invasion force of light infantry and artillery was backed by a simultaneous missile assault on Israel that barraged Israel with 5,000 projectiles in one day.
00:33:07.000And Israel also suffered a massive cyber attack carried out by Iran against its critical infrastructure on October 7th and first responder units.
00:33:17.000So this is something that they planned for years.
00:33:20.000And then they ran back to Israel into the strongest, again, defenses any army has ever had, 500 or 400, I'm sorry, miles of underground tunnels whose sole purpose is to serve as the military infrastructure of Hamas.
00:33:39.000The second one you were talking about was that the war was ongoing on October 7th.
00:33:45.000Israel has been in a conflict with the Palestinians, to be sure, for over 100 years, but Israel was in a prolonged ceasefire with Hamas-controlled Gaza.
00:33:54.000Israel was allowing 20,000 Gazans to enter its territory every day to work in Israel.
00:34:00.000And much of the precise intelligence they had about their targets down to who lived in what house, who had guns, who served in the army, who had dogs, what the dogs' names were, what the children's names were, what the wife looked like, et cetera, et cetera.
00:34:16.000They all received from the people that Israel employed in goodwill to help the Gazan economy.
00:34:22.000So this was an act of perfidy unmatched in human history.
00:34:26.000This was a completely unprovoked attack carried out while Israel thought that we had reached a sort of permanent or semi-permanent ceasefire.
00:34:35.000And as to apartheid, you know, Israel is the only country in the Middle East where Arabs have full civil rights.
00:34:42.000We have Arab Supreme Court justices, we have Arabs in the Knesset in all walks of life.
