00:00:51.300 Olivia loves a challenge. It's why she lifts heavy weights.
00:00:55.580 And likes complicated recipes.
00:00:59.240 But for booking her trip to Paris, Olivia chose the easy way with Expedia.
00:01:03.520 She bundled her flight with a hotel to save more.
00:01:06.100 Of course, she still climbed all 674 steps to the top of the Eiffel Tower.
00:01:11.620 You were made to take the easy route.
00:01:14.320 We were made to easily package your trip.
00:01:17.000 Expedia. Made to travel.
00:01:18.720 The videos right now coming out of Mexico are shocking and terrifying.
00:01:25.780 People at airports as terror attacks ring out across the country in response to the killing of El Mencho, a drug cartel leader.
00:01:36.480 Now, according to numerous reports, this guy was responsible largely for the fentanyl that is flowing into the United States.
00:01:42.320 And Donald Trump, of course, has been putting pressure on Mexico to deal with the problem of the cartels.
00:01:49.000 But anybody who's paid attention knows the cartels are basically de facto government in Mexico because they fund politicians and anybody who dares speak up against them finds their lives cut short.
00:02:02.000 But now in response for this killing, revenge against tourist hotspots, it would seem the action is being taken to punish the Mexican economy, basically saying, if you cross us, we will hit you where it hurts.
00:02:17.480 Now, the sad thing for the Mexican cartels is that they can't hit Donald Trump.
00:02:22.140 Now, this was as much as they're going to call a Mexican operation.
00:02:26.160 This was a U.S. operation.
00:02:27.980 I mean, it wasn't literally, but the United States reportedly gave key information to Mexico and pressured them to make these moves to take out these cartels.
00:02:38.460 And Donald Trump is saying it's time for more.
00:02:41.280 The fear then is that there's going to be more violence erupting.
00:02:44.940 Despite the fact that right now Mexico is saying everything is under control, they've stopped the violence.
00:02:50.000 The expectation is that Trump wants more decisive action.
00:02:54.260 Today, he met with families who lost their children and loved ones through illegal immigrants, drug smuggling or other violence.
00:03:04.560 And here we are today.
00:03:06.540 Donald Trump's not backing down with the boat strikes in the Caribbean.
00:03:09.840 And even now in the Pacific, Trump has made it clear he's not going to tolerate this trafficking, human trafficking.
00:03:16.280 The border is being controlled.
00:03:18.740 So who's really mad about all this?
00:03:21.580 Well, there are many people making the argument that this is just making the violence worse.
00:03:27.200 For the most part, Trump's doing the right thing.
00:03:30.060 Interestingly, in the raid, they uncovered rocket launchers.
00:03:33.600 And now people are questioning just what was Barack Obama doing with Operation Fast and Furious?
00:03:39.800 Where I kid you not, the Obama administration gave thousands of guns to the Mexican cartels.
00:03:48.260 It makes you wonder about their true intentions.
00:03:51.160 And they call it one big accident.
00:03:53.660 I'm not sure I believe it, my friends.
00:03:55.940 So let's jump into the news and see exactly what's going on.
00:03:59.100 The reports coming out of Mexico, absolutely crazy that they are saying things have stabilized.

00:04:47.040 We got this report from Reuters.
00:04:49.520 Visit by romantic partner led to El Mencho killing.
00:04:53.440 25 Mexican troops killed after raid as it happened.
00:04:57.520 Check this out.
00:04:59.040 Monday.
00:04:59.480 We are wrapping up our coverage, says Reuters, of the fallout from Sunday's dramatic events in Mexico.
00:05:04.840 Scheinbaum and two ministers disclosed fresh details about the operation that killed drug cartel boss Asaguera on Sunday and the violence that followed.
00:05:14.960 Known as El Mencho, Asaguera was the mastermind of the powerful Jalisco New Generation cartel.
00:05:21.860 Among the main Mexican criminal organizations involved in smuggling drugs such as fentanyl to the U.S.
00:05:27.660 Scheinbaum said order had now been restored after cartel members on Sunday reacted to news of El Mencho's demise by blocking roads and burning vehicles and setting fire to supermarkets and other businesses in more than half a dozen states.
00:05:44.780 At the same press conference in Mexico City, Security Minister Omar Garcia Harfuch said 25 members of the National Guard and one security guard security guard had died in retaliatory cartel attacks.
00:05:59.140 Defense Secretary Ricardo Travilla broke down in tears during the press conference as he offered his condolences to the family of the dead troops.
00:06:07.820 Travilla also revealed a startling detail about Sunday's operation targeting El Mencho.
00:06:11.580 He said that information of the drug lord's whereabouts had come to light following a visit to him from his romantic partner.
00:06:20.260 Garcia Harfuch said that 30 cartel operatives had also been killed during Sunday's widespread violence, as well as one bystander.
00:06:29.060 At least 70 people were arrested in seven states.
00:06:32.400 Trump weighed in on Truth Social, saying that Mexico needed to step up its actions against the drug cartels.
00:06:38.500 He has been pressuring Scheinbaum for months.
00:06:41.860 Both the Mexican and U.S. governments said the U.S. had provided intelligence for the raid targeting El Mencho.
00:06:48.200 Scheinbaum said the planning and execution of the operation had been entirely carried out by Mexico.
00:06:55.220 Now, here's what we know about the U.S. role, says Axios, with the killing of El Mencho.
00:07:01.160 You can see buses set on fire.
00:07:03.100 These videos coming out of airports, they're absolutely insane.
00:07:09.340 Mexican security forces killed Nemesio Ruben Aseguera Cervantes, the country's most wanted drug lord.
00:07:16.980 Trump has for months pressed the Mexican officials to target drug cartels.
00:07:21.360 And the U.S. had offered a reward of up to $15 million for information leading to the arrest of Aseguera Cervantes, known as El Mencho, who led the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, a designated terrorist organization in the United States.
00:07:37.240 U.S. tourists were among those affected after violence erupted in multiple cities following the death of El Mencho, which Mexico's defense ministry said on X occurred after the Mexican military came under attack while flying the detained cartel leader to Mexico City.
00:07:53.160 Mexican President Claudia Scheinbaum-Pardo urged residents via posts to her social media accounts to remain calm.
00:08:01.180 And the U.S. embassy in Mexico urged Americans to shelter in place in multiple states after images showed vehicles set on fire and smoke rising above beachfront hotels in Puerto Vallarta, a Pacific coastal resort town.
00:08:14.960 U.S. tourists were among those stranded in Puerto Vallarta as Air Canada announced it was canceling flights to and from the town's airport due to the ongoing security situation.
00:08:26.700 Delta, American Airlines and Alaskan Airlines reported cancellations and delays in the tourist hub.
00:08:33.500 Scheinbaum noted that in most parts of the country, activities are proceeding normally.
00:08:36.960 In Guadalajara, Jalisco's capital, and one of the 2026 World Cup host cities, gunfire was reported and armed men that a local reporter sent an X were suspected cartel members appeared to sit a gas station alight in the city where CJNG was founded in 2009.
00:08:56.620 The U.S. Embassy noted in its online statement that roadblocks have impacted airline operations, with some domestic and international flights canceled in both Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta.
00:09:08.060 All taxis and ride shares were suspended in Puerto Vallarta, and some businesses had suspended operations, according to the embassy.
00:09:16.280 Mexico's military came under attack while transporting the 59-year-old El Mencho and returned fire.
00:09:21.520 Security forces killed four cartel members and three others later died of their injuries, including El Mencho, per the Post.
00:09:31.620 Authorities detained two cartel members and various weaponry and armored vehicles were seized, including rocket launchers capable of downing aircraft and destroying armored vehicles, the Post adds.
00:09:42.140 A December 2024 post from the U.S. State Department announcing an increased reward for the arrest and or conviction of El Mencho described the leader as a fugitive.
00:09:54.300 Now, this is interesting.
00:09:56.000 Many people are wondering, what's up with these rocket launchers?
00:10:00.600 How do these people have military-grade weapons to this degree?
00:10:05.600 And what is the U.S. doing to stop it?
00:10:09.000 Take a look at this from the New York Post.
00:10:10.500 Rocket launchers among military-grade equipment seized in raid that killed notorious Mexican cartel leader El Mencho.
00:10:18.360 The reality is, my friends, these cartels are de facto governments.
00:10:23.600 They are running the show in Mexico, and we all know it.
00:10:28.000 The government of Mexico is beholden to these cartels, and they've got the means to do whatever they want.
00:10:34.340 They have murdered mayors and politicians who dared to speak out against them.
00:10:40.500 The New York Post reports rocket launchers capable of shooting down planes were among the arsenals seized by the Mexican military forces in the daring raid that killed notorious Jalisco New Generation cartel boss El Mencho.
00:10:53.840 Special forces also seized armored cars and heavy weaponry, which are often used on the battlefield rather than in law enforcement missions.
00:11:03.840 His drug kingpin, Nemicio El Mencho, a Ceguera Cervantes, was killed, and the resort town of Puerto Vallarta fell under siege.
00:11:10.600 Now, right now, we've got these crazy videos erupting of panic as tourists are trying to flee.
00:11:18.660 Take a look at this image.
00:11:20.280 Most domestic and international flights were canceled at Puerto Vallarta Airport on Sunday.
00:11:25.060 And I believe the likely reality here is the 2026 Maverick with Ford Flex Bed Storage System.
00:11:33.140 For those that see more than a stack of lumber, more than four empty walls, more than just a blank page.
00:11:42.460 The Ford Maverick, made to fit, designed to flex.
00:11:45.780 Right now, get purchase financing from 4.99% APR for up to 72 months on all 2026 Maverick models.
00:11:53.560 Visit your Toronto area Ford store or Ford.ca today.
00:11:59.700 The cartels are doing this to target major hubs of economic activity for Mexico.
00:12:04.100 We have this video.
00:12:05.220 Cartel retaliates.
00:12:06.080 Let's play it now.
00:12:15.780 Arson attacks.
00:12:33.880 Vehicle set on fire.
00:12:37.000 A gas station set on fire.
00:12:39.400 Looks like a Citgo.
00:12:41.560 Muchachos están quemando aquí, dos camiones.
00:12:45.780 People shouldn't have to live this way, man.
00:12:50.820 Armed cartel members entering the Guadalajara Airport causing panic.
00:13:01.380 Wow.
00:13:02.520 Look at that.
00:13:09.360 Absolutely insane.
00:13:10.660 These aren't the only videos that we have for you, my friends.
00:13:13.300 It's absolutely insane.
00:13:14.680 They say Aseguerra Cervantes, the leader of one of the fastest growing criminal networks
00:13:19.100 in Mexico, notorious for driving fentanyl, methamphetamine, and cocaine to the U.S.
00:13:23.140 and staging brazen attacks against government officials who challenged it.
00:13:27.280 People locked themselves in their homes in Guadalajara.
00:13:30.880 They say school was canceled in several states.
00:13:34.080 American tourists have now found themselves trapped in the country, witnessing what they've
00:13:37.900 described as a war breaking out in the streets.
00:13:40.200 Some people are calling this the start of what may be a civil war.
00:13:45.040 One vacationer who was forced to evacuate his rented Airbnb in Puerto Vallarta told Fox
00:13:51.560 Digital how he woke up to the sound of blaring car horns and saw six vehicles completely engulfed
00:13:57.400 in flames.
00:13:58.120 Take a look at the scale of this violence.
00:14:01.620 Baja California, major tourist spot.
00:14:04.980 And then you can see basically everything.
00:14:08.720 Tabasco.
00:14:09.560 I like Tabasco sauce.
00:14:10.680 It's delicious.
00:14:11.920 Passengers at the airport operate with limited personnel.
00:14:14.720 People are fleeing.
00:14:16.180 Look at this.
00:14:17.100 While no airports are closed, the majority of flights have been canceled and roadblocks are
00:14:21.120 impacting airline operations.
00:14:23.800 Travelers are seen on the runway at the airport.
00:14:26.280 People are getting out on the tarmac and running.
00:14:27.980 Take a look at this.
00:14:29.520 A bus set on fire.
00:14:31.280 We've got this as well.
00:14:33.880 Holiday in hell.
00:14:36.060 Tourists stranded in Mexico cartel war.
00:14:39.480 Westerners plead for help as violence explodes across the country if a drug lord is killed.
00:14:45.500 Let's see if they they may have the same video.
00:14:48.560 We have this American tourist Katie Holloman from El Dorado took to Facebook to speak of
00:14:53.880 her ordeal after she was told to shelter in her hotel as it was safer than attempting a
00:14:59.600 journey to the airport.
00:15:01.660 Dan Smith from Palm Springs shared a shocking clip of what appeared to be him running down
00:15:06.060 a staircase as alarms rang out in the background.
00:15:10.120 Cartel burns down city.
00:15:12.380 Let's let's play this clip for you guys.

00:15:34.000 Wow.
00:15:35.120 Wow.
00:15:41.560 Wow.
00:15:41.980 Wow.
00:15:42.420 Wow.
00:15:42.580 Wow.
00:15:42.700 Wow.
00:15:43.160 Wow.
00:15:43.760 crazy
00:15:52.720 we call this process pacification we saw this in brazil so for those that aren't familiar with
00:16:05.340 how brazil works beautiful country rio is just so awesome but the poor people live in the hills
00:16:10.800 and these hills they're called favelas basically means shantytown houses are built random are built
00:16:17.100 randomly the poor people don't live on the beaches because the rich people do and as the city was
00:16:22.260 being established poor people were forced into the hills where it was difficult to climb up and find
00:16:27.660 a place to live over a long period of time they started building these these shantytowns whatever
00:16:31.600 they had to build a house with it's so bad that sometimes it'll rain and the rain will be so
00:16:36.520 intense they will just crumble and fall houses are built on top of houses some people have to walk
00:16:44.400 through one person's house to get to their house and there's a thing the government largely ignored
00:16:50.220 these for some time and so about 15 or so years ago they began the process of pacification
00:16:54.980 because they ignored what was going on in these favelas de facto governments emerged and they
00:17:01.180 called them gangs but they weren't so much gangs as they were de facto government the controlling
00:17:07.220 violent force in the area that didn't want to be messed with when the government decided they're
00:17:11.780 going to take control of these areas they went in and they started removing all of these gangs
00:17:16.020 and it was brutal people were shot and killed in the streets well this is what needs to happen now
00:17:22.000 unfortunately in mexico the cartels are operating operating like de facto governments
00:17:27.060 across the country politicians can't hold office unless they effectively pledge allegiance
00:17:32.540 trump has said enough but this is what's going to happen when you allow the cancer that is organized
00:17:39.440 cartel violence they're selling drugs they're killing people and now they're doing this and you see this
00:17:46.500 look i talk about the cartels and the tourist towns and how you're probably safe as a tourist but
00:17:51.820 they're telling you right now if their control is threatened they will kill you and anybody who gets
00:17:58.300 in their way we got a lot more look at this this is just more photos and videos we have coming out of
00:18:04.660 mexico of these burned out cars and tourists in panic this could be the end for the tourism industry
00:18:11.240 in mexico which would cost them billions of dollar dollars you've got tijuana fun city right on the
00:18:19.700 border man you're from san diego drive on in you got cancun you got puerto vallarta but who's going to
00:18:28.900 want to fly to a place like this now the cartels basically said if you don't let us sell the drugs

00:20:47.540 they say the death of its most wanted man could trigger a total war in mexico america's largest
00:20:54.660 training partner and most populous tourist destination so we got the context so far
00:20:59.380 security expert david sucido said the drug lord's killing could lead to a total war against the
00:21:04.400 mexican state this didn't seem to be just an operation to capture el mencho but to exterminate
00:21:09.760 him to use lethal force to bring him down in the criminal underworld such actions are not simply
00:21:15.000 overlooked the reaction is what we are seeing now narco terrorism blockades and fires in grocery
00:21:21.200 stores i think so too but you know it's fascinating as concerns erupt about the prospect of a civil war
00:21:31.740 or whatever happens in mexico you once again have you once again have these naysayers saying it's not

00:23:32.740 violence spread across the u.s. donald trump is saying do more do you think the cartels are simply
00:23:40.180 going to say i guess we're cooked or are they going to say you ain't seen nothing yet considering
00:23:48.040 the degree of violence that we've seen across mexico already my assumption is going to be
00:23:52.520 donald trump's not going to back down donald trump is going to tell everybody we will not tolerate
00:23:58.740 cartels drug traffickers illegal immigrants and murderers and so he wants mexico to clean up the
00:24:04.840 streets the cartels are going to say we ain't going gentle into that good night
00:24:08.560 so the expectation then is violence has only just begun
00:24:14.180 now today donald trump appeared at an angel family event
00:24:20.960 he announced that february 22nd will be recognized as national angel family day
00:24:27.300 lakin riley's mother also spoke at the press conference thanking trump
00:24:31.300 for what she described as his commitment to remembering her daughter
00:24:35.220 i don't think we actually uh have the video and i'm not going to wait through whatever those ads
00:24:41.060 are but donald trump is not backing down on foreign policy and although this isn't a direct
00:24:47.740 overlap trump imposing tariffs after the fact supreme court shows he's not messing around and he's going
00:24:54.960 to push further and further the bigger question i have for you and for everybody else
00:25:00.160 is this a component of world war three
00:25:03.020 you know
00:25:04.480 there's a lot going on in the world
00:25:06.380 u.s civil war
00:25:08.280 i guess
00:25:09.260 some guy showed up to trump's house with a gun
00:25:11.580 they shot and killed him
00:25:12.900 it's freaky stuff
00:25:14.560 i don't know exactly what we can expect to happen
00:25:18.500 my friends
00:25:19.300 putin has started world war three zelensky says
00:25:23.380 oh i don't care
00:25:24.540 oh i literally don't care
00:25:26.320 this is like the 80th time
00:25:29.000 that zelensky has made the claim that
00:25:31.780 he is that world war three has started
00:25:34.000 so i'm not interested
00:25:35.840 i'm just genuinely not interested
00:25:37.680 but to be fair
00:25:39.200 we can actually still entertain the prospects of expanding war
00:25:42.880 around the world
00:25:44.140 will the u.s intervene to stop a chinese invasion of taiwan
00:25:47.380 are tensions expanding or simmering down
00:25:49.720 with the ice operations in minnesota we saw a dramatic escalation
00:25:53.360 and now a pullback
00:25:54.900 the only problem is my friends
00:25:56.520 as it pertains to the fears of civil war
00:25:58.580 we have one step forward two steps back
00:26:01.360 or as i would say two steps forward one step back
00:26:05.320 the actions in minnesota the escalation was dramatic
00:26:09.480 two people dead
00:26:11.140 say whatever you want about who was just fighting
00:26:14.040 i'm not even getting into that
00:26:15.160 i'm just saying
00:26:15.560 casualties on the left
00:26:18.220 and trump's ice
00:26:20.780 are the ones and cbp
00:26:22.980 who are fighting
00:26:24.160 now they pulled them back
00:26:25.140 but do you think this stuff just goes away
00:26:28.240 a man went to mar-a-lago with a gun
00:26:31.080 he was shot and killed
00:26:32.620 the chungus at lake zurich high school
00:26:35.100 who punched another kid
00:26:36.380 no charges
00:26:37.880 minor suspension
00:26:39.060 and the left is celebrating
00:26:40.980 so what we have my friends is
00:26:44.680 the violence keeps getting worse
00:26:46.980 both internationally
00:26:48.380 and nationally
00:26:50.180 domestically
00:26:51.240 and internationally
00:26:52.520 some have said we're looking at a full-scale global war
00:26:56.380 civil war and world war three
00:26:58.300 all of it just coming to a head
00:26:59.680 in a grand finale
00:27:00.920 of american civilization
00:27:02.380 i don't know
00:27:04.120 but it's hard to see
00:27:07.340 with the geographic hyperpolarization in the united states
00:27:10.340 how this country survives moving forward
00:27:13.540 perhaps an external threat will force the united states to align
00:27:17.880 but i don't see how that even makes sense
00:27:19.180 i really don't
00:27:20.840 if trump does it
00:27:22.600 it is wrong
00:27:24.280 and so
00:27:26.000 many thought that covid
00:27:28.040 would be unifying
00:27:29.780 and that people around the
00:27:32.140 around the country
00:27:32.940 across the country
00:27:33.740 around the country
00:27:34.260 across the country
00:27:35.040 would come together
00:27:36.360 from this pandemic
00:27:37.220 and it was anything
00:27:38.780 but that
00:27:40.060 so where are we now
00:27:41.960 my friends
00:27:43.460 mexico is a narco state
00:27:46.140 it is a fact
00:27:48.720 trump is right
00:27:50.120 i have this for you
00:27:51.640 for opera
00:27:52.600 from operation fast in the furious
00:27:54.740 the obama administration
00:27:57.140 gave around two thousand guns
00:28:00.200 more
00:28:00.640 to cartels
00:28:03.360 and the idea was
00:28:05.600 if we give them the guns
00:28:06.360 we can figure out who's trafficking where
00:28:07.880 instead they just armed them to the teeth
00:28:10.300 i'll tell you what i think
00:28:12.300 i don't believe it was an accident
00:28:14.560 i believe that the obama administration
00:28:18.080 our previous governments
00:28:19.060 were funding
00:28:20.220 and allowing the cartels
00:28:22.260 to operate
00:28:22.920 on purpose
00:28:24.580 we know that the u.s. gave a bunch of materials
00:28:28.200 to the syrian rebels
00:28:30.120 turned into isis
00:28:32.180 they make the argument
00:28:33.300 no no it never happened
00:28:34.420 yet somehow isis was driving around in a truck
00:28:36.240 advertising some guy in michigan
00:28:38.340 indeed
00:28:39.920 a lot
00:28:41.520 was done to prop up violence
00:28:43.620 trump gets into office
00:28:45.440 and what happens
00:28:46.120 the drug traffickers
00:28:47.840 is getting blown up
00:28:48.980 they say
00:28:49.980 the cartels
00:28:51.740 are losing their minds
00:28:52.760 their leaders
00:28:53.260 are being killed
00:28:54.060 they said
00:28:57.480 donald trump was going to be bad
00:28:59.920 but instead it looks like
00:29:01.180 although things are rough
00:29:03.180 trump is actually fighting
00:29:06.360 for american interests
00:29:07.480 no war with russia
00:29:09.600 no involvement in eastern europe
00:29:12.080 we're involved
00:29:12.640 we're entangled
00:29:13.180 trump
00:29:14.440 not doing the best job
00:29:15.700 but you can see what his efforts are
00:29:17.080 where his efforts are
00:29:18.460 isis was flattened
00:29:20.980 i'll tell you what i think
00:29:22.880 i think the globe
00:29:24.840 largely
00:29:25.400 the global powers
00:29:26.600 operate under controlled chaos
00:29:28.220 isis was intentional
00:29:30.340 i think the obama administration
00:29:32.120 the bush administration
00:29:33.080 all of these administrations
00:29:34.400 wanted isis to exist
00:29:36.460 they want the instability
00:29:37.720 they want the cartels
00:29:39.160 who have influence in mexico
00:29:40.480 they want controlled chaos
00:29:43.300 so that they can tell you
00:29:45.180 we're the ones who protect you
00:29:47.220 they want the chaos in the middle east
00:29:49.520 to destabilize our enemies
00:29:51.160 a weapon of u.s intelligence
00:29:53.080 and trump said enough
00:29:55.300 now
00:29:56.960 don't get me wrong
00:29:57.780 trump's far from perfect
00:29:58.800 he's very
00:29:59.520 very far from it
00:30:00.900 but he flattened isis
00:30:02.940 he brought about the abraham accords
00:30:04.920 he worked towards solving
00:30:06.500 these problems
00:30:07.720 and for this
00:30:09.020 they seek to impeach him
00:30:10.420 they accuse him of being
00:30:11.800 all of the worst things imaginable
00:30:13.680 trump is a lot of bad things
00:30:15.920 he's a lot of things indeed
00:30:17.740 but it seems like
00:30:19.600 when you look at what's going on
00:30:20.560 with tariff policy
00:30:21.520 to help restore american manufacturing
00:30:23.620 taking out the drug traffickers
00:30:25.620 taking out the cartels
00:30:27.260 stopping isis
00:30:29.040 negotiating for peace
00:30:30.520 in the middle east
00:30:31.120 everything that's been done thus far
00:30:33.600 has been a major net positive
00:30:35.380 for the united states
00:30:36.440 now call him lewd and lascivious
00:30:38.720 call him a hawkster
00:30:40.100 call him whatever you want
00:30:41.100 you can't deny the results
00:30:43.780 and so what does that mean for us
00:30:46.300 if we lose this moving forward
00:30:47.840 well they're going to impeach him for sure
00:30:51.000 that doesn't mean he'll get removed
00:30:52.800 he probably won't
00:30:53.560 but expect nothing to advance
00:30:55.880 what happens
00:30:57.740 if the democrats
00:30:59.180 take the house
00:31:00.420 or the senate
00:31:01.940 what happens if they win
00:31:04.280 the presidency in 2028
00:31:05.640 our border will be opened
00:31:07.300 drugs and illegal immigrants
00:31:08.820 will flood this country
00:31:09.820 things will be worse
00:31:11.460 than they have ever
00:31:12.780 worse than
00:31:13.920 they have ever been
00:31:15.500 and i think that's just
00:31:18.280 the demise of the united states
00:31:19.480 as a country
00:31:20.060 our wealth
00:31:21.620 our talent
00:31:22.500 extracted
00:31:23.300 and burned to the ground
00:31:24.480 and china will rise
00:31:26.580 and you will get
00:31:27.820 a chinese communist party
00:31:29.360 unipolar world
00:31:31.840 you will be forced
00:31:33.700 to adhere to the policies
00:31:34.900 of the chinese communist party
00:31:36.340 which are deeply
00:31:37.840 ethno-nationalist
00:31:39.340 so if you're not chinese
00:31:41.200 well you're in trouble
00:31:43.300 in fact if you're not even
00:31:44.740 the right kind of chinese
00:31:45.600 i don't know where we go
00:31:48.420 right now my friends
00:31:49.260 but what i can say is
00:31:50.420 i believe that there's
00:31:52.180 going to be an escalation
00:31:52.780 of violence in the united states
00:31:53.860 i believe there's going
00:31:55.260 to be an escalation
00:31:55.820 of violence in mexico
00:31:56.940 and we may be on the brink
00:31:59.180 of greater full-scale
00:32:00.320 full-scale war
00:32:01.660 with iran
00:32:02.780 right now
00:32:03.840 now for everything good
00:32:06.160 you can say about trump
00:32:07.120 this iran stuff
00:32:07.960 is where we're getting freaky
00:32:09.100 but again
00:32:10.440 i gotta say
00:32:12.160 all of this towards
00:32:13.700 american interest
00:32:14.600 now there are people
00:32:16.240 gonna tell you
00:32:16.740 oh you know
00:32:17.260 israel wants us
00:32:18.100 to go after iran
00:32:18.800 that's the silliest thing
00:32:19.660 imaginable of course
00:32:20.400 they do
00:32:20.900 but that's not why we do
00:32:22.040 iran is funding
00:32:24.500 destabilization
00:32:25.900 in the middle east
00:32:26.640 and trump
00:32:27.340 wants to end it
00:32:28.260 i don't think
00:32:29.420 it's going to be
00:32:29.960 a good idea
00:32:30.480 i can praise trump
00:32:32.180 for where it's worked
00:32:32.960 i'm not convinced
00:32:34.240 this one's going to work
00:32:35.260 so where we end up
00:32:37.220 with my friends
00:32:37.980 you better
00:32:38.940 hope for the best
00:32:40.700 but prepare
