00:00:47.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:17.000In the last couple of days, we have seen UFOs unidentified flying object after unidentified flying object enter our space or Canadian airspace that has required us to shoot it down.
00:01:28.000On Friday, Biden ordered the Air Force to shoot down a balloon with a car-sized payload after it violated airspace in Alaska up in the Arctic Circle.
00:01:38.000According to the Pentagon, that's the Pentagon, not the octagon.
00:01:43.000The UFO, quote, does not resemble in any way the Chinese surveillance balloon shot down off the coast of South Carolina.
00:01:51.000That plus the location might suggest that it's from Russia or it's a completely different country or other countries that have this technology.
00:02:02.000Then over the weekend, the U.S. tracked another balloon into Canadian airspace and shot that one down as well.
00:02:08.000According to the Canadian Defense Minister, this balloon resembled the Chinese balloon from last week, but it was a lot smaller.
00:02:15.000Then on Saturday, NORAD shot down some airspace, something down in airspace in Montana, and sent fighter jets to investigate another radar anomaly.
00:02:26.000But this time, they didn't find anything.
00:02:28.000Instead, we lost track of the object, which then flew over Wisconsin and Michigan before we finally found it and shot it down over Lake Huron, one of the five great lakes here in Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior.
00:02:42.000Well, there are a few possible answers.
00:02:44.000Here are one of them: China and perhaps other foreign rivals are testing the Biden regime's ability to police and defend our own airspace.
00:02:55.000Is this an invasion, a surveillance operation?
00:02:57.000Is this a trolling project on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party where they're just kind of getting a thrill with coming into our airspace to see how fast we can react?
00:03:08.000Another possible answer, and maybe a more disturbing one, is that these Incursions happen a lot more than we realize.
00:03:15.000A quote from the Washington Post citing an unnamed federal official says, quote, the official speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue said the sensory equipment absorbs a lot of the raw data and filters are so are used so humans and machines can make sense of what is collected.
00:03:34.000But that process always runs the risk of leaving out something important.
00:03:38.000We basically opened the filters, the official said, much like a car buyer unchecking boxes on a website to broaden the parameters of what can be searched.
00:03:48.000Now, if this is accurate, then what is going on is the government has been allowing spy balloons and other UFOs just to run rampant across the United States.
00:03:58.000And when they suddenly got embarrassed last week by the huge Chinese balloon that was mistakenly identified by the great patriots in the state of Montana, they decided to take a tough look by shooting it down once it was over the ocean.
00:04:14.000And maybe this happens more than we ever realized.
00:04:17.000Maybe our sovereignty doesn't mean anything.
00:04:19.000We know that principle is true, by the way, by how our southern border is treated.
00:04:23.000We know that sovereignty is not a value of this current government.
00:04:44.000It's an abstraction to this government.
00:04:47.000Now I want to play a couple pieces of tape here, but the story gets weirder because it'd be one thing if it was, again, just random reconnaissance balloons.
00:04:56.000But there's a lot of details here that demand answers.
00:05:00.000And the way the media is handling this and covering this is so bizarre.
00:05:05.000The way the media is handling this reminds me of COVID, where they just read the exact press release from the government and they move on.
00:05:14.000And it's so obvious that there is more to the story.
00:05:20.000And they're almost sheepishly afraid because do they actually want the truth?
00:05:26.000Well, let's play a couple pieces of tape here.
00:05:29.000So first, let's go to the one over Alaska, which doesn't seem to be too concerning, but then we'll lead into something that is puzzling, to say the least.
00:05:42.000Now, I'm just a layman when it comes to military aviation technology, but when I hear certain details, I do have a variety of questions that I think Americans deserve answers to.
00:05:55.000Yeah, not even the pilots apparently were really able to identify what they saw.
00:05:59.000Those pilots, we have learned, have given very conflicting accounts of what they actually experienced, with some pilots saying that the object interfered with the plane sensors, other pilots saying that they didn't really experience that.
00:06:10.000Other pilots saying that when they looked at the object, they could identify no identifiable propulsion system and they did not know how it was actually staying in the air, cruising at that altitude of about 40,000 feet.
00:06:22.000So this has all added to the Pentagon's wariness of describing in more detail what this object actually is until they can get more information through the debris that they are recovering right now.
00:06:34.000Okay, so then that incident happens in Alaska.
00:06:38.000And then the one that kind of got buried by all the Super Bowl news as people were worried about the commercials and the game.
00:06:47.000Again, I watched the game, I enjoyed it, but I was more interested in what happened in Lake Huron than whether or not the refs made the right call in the end of the game with the Eagles and the Chiefs.
00:07:00.000By the way, they did not make the right call.
00:07:01.000I say that as someone who actually wanted the Eagles to lose.
00:07:27.000And I just, I love some of the people on Twitter that no matter what, they'll never allow themselves to entertain anything except, of course, it's an octagon.
00:07:43.000I mean, I've heard it theoretically that potentially there could be propulsion devices, but when I go to Sky Harbor, I don't see objects that are octagonal.
00:08:10.000Drew a U.S. F-16 fighter jet fired a single Sidewinder missile at 2.42 p.m. Sunday, dropping the unknown object into Michigan's Lake Huron.
00:08:20.000So far, at least, there's no explanation from the military of what exactly this object was, other than a description that officials provided of an octagonal object with strings hanging from it, but with, they said, no discernible payload.
00:08:35.000It's not clear where these latest three objects came from, who sent them, or what their intent was.
00:08:41.000But it does seem clear that the White House will now be under a lot of pressure to provide some answers as the week goes on, Andrew.
00:08:48.000So we've got octagons over Lake Huron in our sovereign homeland.
00:08:55.000Now, there are propulsion devices, including, quote, spin polarization and spin transport in quark glucon plasma or gluon plasma or ion thrusters.
00:09:04.000And a lot of it is theoretical physics, or is it?
00:09:07.000Look, there are rabbit holes here that go very, very deep.
00:09:09.000We know that a lot of this technology we see deployed by our military was technology developed in the early 1980s.
00:09:16.000So what has been developed then that we don't know about?
00:10:34.000Look, in a private conversation with somebody from the Air Force, we learned, our show learned.
00:10:41.000And this is a quote that he says, look, I can't just quote, discuss all this, but the technology that we, the American government, the federal government, have is out of this world stuff.
00:10:51.000You wouldn't believe it if I told you.
00:10:52.000I've heard this from multiple people in the Department of Defense and at the top levels of our government, that there is technology the government has that would just completely and totally blow your mind.
00:11:03.000And so some people immediately say, oh, come on, Charlie, it can't possibly be aliens.
00:11:09.000I'm not saying that it's a guarantee, but I find it interesting to even ask the question that it could be extraterrestrial life or it could be China.
00:11:20.000It's not as if our government is any stranger to allowing aliens into our country.
00:13:03.000So Ryan Zinke seems convinced this is balloon warfare, but the story reporting that we're receiving seems to suggest something else.
00:13:11.000And I am just curious, in the audience's estimation, do you completely discount aliens and extraterrestrials?
00:13:21.000Now, the media is going to make fun that we even say this.
00:13:24.000However, what's fascinating is if you go through the New York Times article, if you go through the New York Times today, which I did, what's fascinating is that the New York Times in a just kind of buried paragraph says the Biden administration is going to great lengths to alleviate concerns of people in government that this is not aliens, that this is not extraterrestrial, that this is not coming from other worlds.
00:14:13.000Because you still haven't been able to tell us what these things are that we are shooting out of the sky, that raises the question, have you ruled out aliens or extraterrestrials?
00:14:34.000I'll let the Intel community and the counterintelligence community figure that out.
00:14:39.000I haven't ruled out anything at this point.
00:14:42.000We continue to assess every threat or potential threat, unknown, that approaches North America with an attempt to identify it.
00:14:50.000But should we even trust anything that the government is saying?
00:14:54.000Could this all just be a false flag operation to fake an alien invasion or fake a UFO hysteria crisis to try to justify more power lockdowns control?
00:15:49.000Join the thousands of others by opening a gold IRA or silver IRA with Noble Gold Investments.
00:15:54.000Invest with Noble Gold Investments before the end of this month, and you'll bag a free one-fourth of an ounce American gold eagle coin with every qualified IRA of $50,000 or more.
00:16:03.000You can't go wrong with Noble Gold Investments and their thousands of five-star reviews.
00:16:07.000Call Noble Gold Investments at 877-646-5347 for a no-pressure consultation-only conversation.
00:16:58.000And unfortunately, that was a pattern of Eagle fans that I encountered in the Valley.
00:17:03.000They were very, very convinced that they were going to win, and they didn't.
00:17:06.000But, however, to the Eagles community, they definitely do have a rather strong argument that bad things do happen in Maricopa County when the referees don't do their job.
00:17:20.000Okay, so let's just indulge me for a second.
00:17:23.000I know a lot of you in the audience say, Charlie, why do you talk about football?
00:17:44.000It is the end of the Chiefs game, the Chiefs Eagles game, which is now in Eagles folklore, going to be analyzed more than that of the Kennedy assassination.
00:21:29.000The Chinese Communist Party, they're creating a national geographic Chinese equivalent, and they wanted the beautiful pictures of the American heartland.
00:21:40.000We don't know what China, we know what China.
00:21:41.000We, of course, know what China is doing.
00:21:43.000And then John Kirby was asked, National Security Council's John Kirby, categorically denying that Beijing claims the United States has flown its own spy balloons over China.
00:21:54.000That somehow we have done this over China.
00:21:57.000Breaking news out of Beijing, just in the last hour or two, the foreign ministry there has accused the United States since the start of 2022 of flying balloons 10 different times over Chinese airspace.
00:22:28.000So there's only a couple rational explanations for all of this, but none of them should give you comfort as if we've got enough things to worry about here.
00:22:37.000But I definitely want to build out the argument for a second that this could be the government trying to distract us.
00:22:47.000Think about all the different things happening right now.
00:22:50.000I'm not saying this is for sure what's happening, but this certainly is a compelling take.
00:22:56.000All the different topics, a potentially crumbling economy, a wide open southern border, all the money that we're sending to Ukraine.
00:23:04.000On February 2nd, the Chinese balloon was spotted.
00:23:09.000February 3rd, a UFO was seen over Alaska.
00:23:11.000February 11th, the UFO was shot over Canada.
00:23:14.000February 12th, UFO appeared over Canada.
00:23:16.000February 12th, UFO shot over Lake Huron.
00:23:19.000Is it that the regime needs to continue to play offense in the propaganda war to try to have us not focus on the nuts and bolts of our own civilization?
00:23:30.000This very well might be true because this story has now monopolized some of the chatter, but they're not even talking about it in an interesting way.
00:23:42.000And then, is this another excuse to try to use the disinformation regime to go after anybody that might even speculate that there might be more to this story?
00:23:53.000I don't think we're ever, I don't think we're, I don't think we're going to know what actually is happening in this situation for quite some time.
00:24:01.000But what we do know is that the government has participated in one deceitful act of a false flag operation after another.
00:24:11.000A lot of this is still mere speculation.
00:24:14.000But this particular part of our government has a very long history of keeping things secret for a very, very long time, the military-industrial complex.
00:24:23.000Now, this is another explanation, potentially, and this one is very simple, that we have been focused on foreign wars for so long that our ability to defend our homeland has weakened,
00:24:36.000that we are not as sharp at being able to detect objects and deter them, and maybe that these objects have been happening for quite some time, and we've been so worried about colonizing Afghanistan and trying to bring democracy to Ukraine that we are not as well prepared, and China knows that, and they're exploiting it.
00:24:58.000If you were actually trying to take over America, then why would you do this in a way where then your very expensive equipment is shot down?
00:25:06.000I mean, let's just say that a octagon-shaped propulsion machine flying at 20,000 feet that can move horizontally, that is at least a couple hundred million dollar piece of equipment.
00:25:18.000At that minimum, and you're just going to float it over there so it can get shot down.
00:25:26.000In the kind of category of this is something other than the Chinese, I'm not saying it's aliens, I'm saying it could be, it does not seem rational to send now cumulative, probably almost a billion dollars of equipment to the American homeland to allow it to be shot down so we could study and analyze it and then also heighten our own sense of awareness.
00:25:45.000So then you got to ask the question, is it America doing this to itself and we blame it on our own, we blame it on our adversaries to get us closer to war with China?
00:25:54.000Now, the government would never do anything like that, obviously.
00:26:09.000I'm not saying I believe in aliens and all this, but I'm not discounting it.
00:26:12.000Obviously, that would, I think, be irrational.
00:26:14.000So C.S. Lewis said this, who is, in my opinion, I think almost everyone who has done the work would agree.
00:26:20.000He is the most thoughtful Christian theologian of the 20th century, certainly one of the most effective.
00:26:27.000If you read Mere Christianity, which was originally delivered as a series of radio addresses during the Blitz, I think you would agree.
00:26:33.000But just really quick, he said, the supposed threat is clearly directed against the doctrine of the incarnation, the belief the God of God, for us men and for our salvation down from heaven, was made man.
00:26:46.000We find ourselves to be out one among a many million races scattered throughout a million spheres.
00:26:50.000How can we, without absurd arrogance, believe ourselves to have been uniquely favored?
00:26:54.000I admit that the question could be formidable.
00:26:56.000It might turn out that the redemption of other species differed from ours by working through ours.
00:27:02.000There is a hint of something like this in St. Paul, Romans 8:19 through 23, when he says that the whole creation is longing and waiting to be delivered for some kind of slavery, and that the deliverance will occur only when we, we Christians, fully enter upon our sonship to God and exercise our glorious liberty.
00:27:20.000That is from The World's Last Night, chapter six: Religion and Rocketry, C.S. Lewis on alien life.
00:27:25.000He actually wrote about it for quite some time.
00:27:52.000Yeah, I mean, China could potentially benefit from surveillance, but this is not done in a way where a foreign adversary would just keep on sending very expensive spy balloon equipment, one after the other, after the other, after the other.
00:28:50.000And so, again, let me just reiterate: what is the benefit from China doing this?
00:28:56.000The question is: what can China get from a balloon that they can't get from a satellite?
00:28:59.000But is there really surveillance that is so urgent to the Chinese Communist Party that they're willing to risk diplomatic relations and turn the American citizenry against them?
00:29:13.000But if we've learned anything about our government, the most rational answer to the question of who benefits is not the Chinese Communist Party, it's the military-industrial complex here.
00:29:29.000Something that we learned from COVID is that the regime needs emergencies and a crisis after crisis.
00:29:35.000They need a rolling crisis to maintain power.
00:29:37.000I'm not saying our government did this.
00:29:41.000But if you were to ask the question that is the most clarifying question to lead you to the truth, who benefits, qui bona, we ask that question all the time because there's so much noise.
00:29:52.000You just need to say, in a world of incentives, when something unusual happens, when something irregular happens, it is rational to then take a step back and say, who would benefit most from doing this?
00:30:01.000By the way, any private investigator and every private detector, detective will always ask that question first: what is the motive here?
00:30:09.000Why would this person kill that person?
00:30:53.000Except for the fact that they just want to put a throbbing middle finger in front of us and they just want to tell us that we're stronger than you, but still, that would make that awaken the American sleeping giant.
00:31:03.000The entire geopolitical approach of China the last 40 years has been to lull America asleep, not tick us off.
