00:18:57.080are these separate problems or are these the same fight?
00:19:02.240Well, good to be with you, Glenn. And I think the answer is a bit of both. There is certainly a commonality, and we have to fight it every single day at the globalist headquarters here of the United Nations, of these broad globalist agendas, the climate ideology that's been at war against fossil fuel and reliable energy sources,
00:19:28.440this kind of open mass migration that the Europeans, the last administration embraced,
00:19:34.240but the Europeans are still embracing, that's causing civilizational suicide, the obsession
00:19:39.320with entitlements that is causing fiscal insanity in Europe right now. And there's a lot of the
00:19:47.580underpinning behind what you're seeing in a global fuel shortage. You're seeing the unrest and riots
00:19:54.500in France. And I think taking advantage of these bad policies, the West, frankly, trying to shoot
00:20:02.720itself in the foot, are extremists. You're certainly seeing the Iranian regime activate
00:20:08.700its cells across Europe, and they're trying here in the United States with ongoing assassination
00:20:13.880plots against President Trump and many of his key officials. And you're seeing Sunni extremists
00:20:22.160that many on the left and frankly in Europe want to try to forget about, they're still active as
00:20:28.580well. And the information that we have so far is that the pilot, despite the media trying to call
00:20:35.040an altercation or a little tussle in the cockpit, was a Sunni extremist. I can't get into any more
00:20:43.120information than that. So I think it is certainly all related and underscoring it is incredibly
00:20:50.400bad and destructive policy that has its roots in left-wing Marxism.
00:21:03.920The story about the fly-to-buy guy, that just is, I mean, I don't even know how that guy,
00:21:11.180you know, how he even got a job with fly-to-buy, but somebody was ignoring something.
00:21:20.400In England, we pull out our bombers and we're told the president says, I think this is more than just some guys just wanting to protest.
00:21:33.060He alludes to the fact that he feels that there might be some plot to get our bombers.
00:21:38.320We immediately pull our bombers out and England decides to let the guys go.
00:21:44.340And I mean, I don't know what's happening in England either.
00:21:46.960What was the threat? Why did we pull our bombers? And is England doing anything about this? Are they still a protected, somebody who will protect us as well as we protect them?
00:22:00.700Well, again, sorry, Glenn, I can only get into so many details, but there was an active and ongoing plot. I think the president and secretary have discussed that. And let's just say we've seen we saw in in Russia, we saw drones attack their strategic bombers.
00:22:21.160So this type of activity, we've seen the tactics employed elsewhere, and we have to protect our strategic assets against those same types of threats.
00:22:34.960Scott Besson said that Iran has no oil on the water and no revenue this week, which if we could actually choke them off with revenue and from all of their friends, this thing will come apart quickly.
00:22:48.800Reports now say that we're pushing more oil out through the strait than we did before the war.
00:22:55.540Tehran zone people are warning of a crisis, but the benchmark price of Brent per barrel is still over $100.
00:23:05.840What is the truth on what's happening on the strait?
00:23:10.620well it's it's uh absolutely true and not just scott besant but our energy secretary chris wright
00:23:19.080and our own navy uh who's escorting these ships out we're getting near pre-war levels of oil out
00:23:25.120so gulf war or excuse me gulf arab oil is getting out to market iranian oil thanks to our blockade
00:23:33.060is not uh number one but number two glenn i would pay attention to uh just scott besant
00:23:40.060and his team having his foot on the neck of the Iranian economy. It's not just the overseas oil,
00:23:47.380it's their airlines are no longer able to fly terrorists, guns, thugs, and gold back and forth
00:23:54.480to all of their proxies, number one. Number two, we're going after their rail and trucking,
00:24:00.400their internal gas subsidies. So the Iranian people kind of have this deal with the Iranian
00:24:06.500regime that they get free gas. It's almost free in exchange for putting up with a lot of their
00:24:13.480oppressive policies. The IRGC controls 40, 50 percent of the Iranian economy. So the airlines
00:24:20.720are getting shut down. The rail is getting shut down. They're overseas. Oil shipments are shut
00:24:26.320down. And a lot of what was out on the water is exhausted. And he is now preventing the money
00:24:32.880that was coming through Chinese, London, Dubai, and other banking systems from even the money
00:24:39.780that was out there from getting back in. So one way or another, Operation Economic Fury
00:24:45.360is going to drive the regime either into total bankruptcy or back to the table to give up their
00:24:51.980obsession with the nuclear weapon. And I'm telling you, Glenn, historians in the world
00:24:57.320will thank the president for finally putting an end to this 50-year conflict
00:25:01.640and preventing the world's largest supporter of terrorism from having a nuke, that would,
00:25:07.620when people say, well, why does this matter to everyday Americans? The Saudis have said openly
00:25:13.360that if Iran tests a nuclear weapon, they will get one too, and we will have a nuclear arms race
00:25:18.480across the Middle East. And that should be unacceptable and frightening to every generation
00:25:24.840of America. I had a conversation with a major world leader off record recently, and he said,
00:25:36.080if the United States is serious and they actually, Besant actually puts his foot down on the neck,
00:25:44.500he said, this war could be over quickly. It looks like Besant is doing, every indication to me is
00:25:51.000that he is doing that. Do you see an end to this anytime soon without having to go and just
00:25:58.980throw more bombs their way? Look, this has been my message internally and externally.
00:26:08.020When the Iranians come to the table, they're not begging us to not hit them again. They're
00:26:12.100begging for cash. And that's exactly what they did during the UN General Assembly. And the
00:26:18.320president knows they've lost the leverage over the Straits, knows our Navy's getting
00:26:22.280Gulf oil out and blocking Iranian oil, knows what kind of trouble there is. And that's why he said
00:26:27.720this is a bad deal. No, thanks. Number one. And number two, how long can they sustain record low
00:26:35.040currency valuations, record high inflation, zero foreign currency reserves, and no revenue coming
00:26:42.800in so that they could subsidize uh their grip on power um that you know of course there's a debate
00:26:49.040but they can't sustain that forever and we can sustain this as long as we need to time is on
00:26:54.000the president's side and they're completely misreading him that if they think that politics
00:26:59.000uh or the midterms is going to get in the way of what he sees is securing the safety of the world
00:27:05.300and the american people they've totally misread him and uh in his administration here's the one
00:27:11.780piece that is missing, though. People don't go out into the streets and topple their government
00:27:18.460when they're unarmed. How do you see the people? I mean, the people are just kind of trapped
00:27:25.680in between this and watching this happen, and they can't go out because they'll just be
00:27:29.320slaughtered by the IRGC. I mean, look, it's a sad and completely valid point. I mean,
00:27:37.520You know how difficult it is. I'm a veteran in a Green Beret. I mean, they literally machine gunned over 40,000 people in the span of a weekend. And yet, where are the walkouts at the UN? They walked out on Bibi for that supposed, air quotes, genocide. They didn't walk out on the president of Iran. Where are the protesters in Colombia? Where are the protesters in college campuses?
00:28:04.180uh it's it's absolutely hypocritical and ridiculous uh but look i i can't get into
00:28:10.580uh any ongoing operations but i certainly take your point right um can you tell me what what
00:28:16.820is the g7 doing the president uh convinced the g7 to dump a hundred million barrels of uh diesel
00:28:24.220uh because diesel is out of control um i'm assuming all of this has to do with the ukraine
00:28:31.440Russia war. That's one of the reasons why we're experiencing such high diesel prices. It doesn't
00:28:37.040have anything to do with the strait. What is the G7 doing? What did the president do? What kind of
00:28:44.160deal did we make? Well, first, just to get to the cause of it, because the media likes to conflate
00:28:49.340what's happening in the Straits of Hormuz, which is oil exports with gas refining, two very
00:28:58.040different things. Yes, a lot of it has to do with the war in Ukraine, Ukraine's attacks on
00:29:05.820Russia's refining capability, but it's also decades now of this liberal climate obsession
00:29:12.840that we've seen in Europe that has closed down refinery after refinery. They literally
00:29:17.340have no refining capability. They are absolutely completely dependent. Remember, diesel is what
00:29:25.360powers trucks and planes and, and, uh, and industry, right? Yeah. You can't do that with,
00:29:32.400uh, with offshore wind and solar panels. So they've completely made themselves dependent
00:29:37.620and vulnerable, but it's not just Europe, Glenn. It's the liberal climate obsession here in the
00:29:42.740United States, California shut down to refineries, uh, just, just in recent years.
00:29:49.700Can the, can the president, can the president just say it's a national emergency open those
00:29:54.960damn refineries can in a national emergency you know it's a great question i'm not sure i'd have
00:29:59.880to go back to the to the white house lawyers whether he can override horrifically bad state
00:30:05.700policy that's trying to take california the direction of venezuela europe and and you know
00:30:11.500other um progressive failed states you know i don't know if he can override it but i can tell
00:30:16.980you this is why the president's been so adamant about drill baby drill america has to be energy
00:30:21.280independent. And look at where we're going now with Venezuela. We're getting more and more crude
00:30:27.580out on the water, which is heavy crude that goes to our refineries in the Southeast. We also have
00:30:34.860friends and allies like neighboring Guyana that has some of the most unproven, untapped,
00:30:41.100largest reserves in the world. But also you heard him mention in his UN speech,
00:30:45.280He spent an entire paragraph on the Arctic where you have a lot of unproven reserves that have been blocked off by bad progressive policies over the years.
00:30:55.240So he completely gets that we have to be energy independent.
00:30:59.520And the world is seeing what happens right now when those supply chains are disrupted, much less critical mineral supply chains, much less, as we saw during COVID, seemingly inexpensive, unimportant things like mask, gowns and gloves.
00:31:13.000America has to be supply chain independent, and if it can't be in the United States, at least it's in the Western Hemisphere, and that's why what he's doing in the Western Hemisphere to bring those governments our way and to reestablish those supply chains.
00:31:30.060Glenn, from the Arctic to the southern border, to the Panama Canal, all the way down to Argentina, we have the food, energy, and mineral security we need.
00:31:40.100If only we would pay attention to it, and that's exactly what he's doing.
00:31:44.160I think it's the transformative story of his second administration.
00:31:49.340I mean, he will be responsible for the next 100 years.
00:31:53.700If this works, he's responsible for the next 100 years.
00:31:56.860He's making us completely independent in this hemisphere.
00:31:59.100I've only got about 70 seconds here. You mentioned the Mexican border. Coast Guard said they were fired upon. Mexican military said they weren't. Can you give me, because I've got two questions, can you tell me, were they fired upon, and is this unusual?
00:32:24.480i can't tell you the the details of that glenn unfortunately yet however i can tell you when i
00:32:32.100was in congress you know i i i supported the authorization the use of force against these
00:32:37.160cartels these guys are not like the mafia they are like isis and we need to treat them that way
00:32:42.120and that's what president trump and his team are doing last thing what is happening with russia
00:32:48.000and this outbreak. Is there an outbreak? Do we know? I mean, the pneumonic plague
00:32:55.420is not something to play around with. It can be cured by antibiotics, but we don't make our
00:33:01.160antibiotics here anymore. Can you give me an update on that? Back to the supply chain story.
00:33:05.320We just literally reopened, thanks to President Trump's tariffs and policies,
00:33:09.700the first antibiotic factory in Tennessee. Look, I could tell you it's in an isolated area. It is
00:33:16.500a real thing. The Russians are isolating a number of these locations. Apparently, the plague,
00:33:23.980there's these anti-plague research centers, is still an issue in Russia. And so far, it looks
00:33:31.520like they're taking appropriate measures, but we're watching it closely. Okay. Mike, thank you
00:33:36.780so much. I really appreciate it. Thanks for everything you do in the United Nations. I don't
00:33:39.760know how you stand it, but God bless you, all your work. Thank you. Yeah, well, which is tough
00:33:44.560for Congress here or my combat team, but we're on it.
00:52:08.140He seems to have, I mean, he was, I think it's 66% or 69% of the vote went to him.
00:52:15.120The Islamic vote went to him last time. Who actually controls that? Is he in charge of that or are they in charge of him? Where is that?
00:52:27.060So listen, again, he's a very smart man, but he has made a very conscious choice. His objective is to mobilize the voters that he can mobilize.
00:52:36.560So he's trying to mobilize, for example, in particular, the immigrant Muslim vote.
00:52:41.820One of the ways he's done so is by making the Palestinian cause the alpha and omega of his politics.
00:52:50.280And it's how his party has recruited both from within the Muslim community and also amongst young people.
00:53:00.820And now again, now you have the issue, of course, of and you see it, you see it in the demonstrations. You have Palestinian flags everywhere. You have Islamists who are saying that, you know, France is banning young women from wearing the veil in schools.
00:53:17.760And so it becomes sort of a mix of everything.
00:53:21.000The question then is obviously whether he will control things at the end.
00:53:24.780But he has definitely created an alliance.
00:53:27.900And it's a very Machiavellian idea of sort of, you know, pushing left-wing politics together with Islamist politics.
00:53:37.260And it's a very, very dangerous cocktail, of course.
00:53:40.500I mean, you know, 1790s, you guys saw this like this.
00:53:46.700What does France look like in the end?
00:54:09.520It's a very dangerous situation indeed.
00:54:11.960I think to some extent, France's experience with most liberal democracies in the world, I experience, we're seeing extreme polarization.
00:54:19.400And as you just mentioned, the fact that sort of the reasonable government parties have not addressed some of the profound issues we're dealing with, whether it's the issue of debt, whether it's the issue of Islam, the issue of immigration, of integration, you leave the space to the extremes.
00:54:33.680So we'll see whether this time around the extremes will win, we will actually will be brought to the ground or whether somehow, through a miracle, we will have some more of the reasonable guys actually wake up.
00:54:50.720But it's far from sure. And even if they are, they will at some point have to tackle some of the very, very difficult issues that we will have to be dealing with and that have been going on for years and years and, frankly, decades.
00:55:05.580i just did a monologue on um how you know when the when notre dame became the temple of reason
00:55:14.260they you know took the statues of the kings down the kings of judah um and somebody buried the
00:55:20.260heads uh you know back in the 1790s and now you can see him in a museum in france um and i compared
00:55:27.300that with is the faith of france been buried and is hiding you had almost a million people on the
00:55:35.120same streets for the Pope just a few days ago. Does that mean anything to you? Does that tell
00:55:42.180you anything that there is some well of reason and faith, or do they just come from all over Europe?
00:55:51.200No, you have that. The reality is, I would actually argue that the majority of people
00:55:57.380in most Western democracies, including in France, are, you know, really reasonable people who want
00:56:05.940to get on with their lives, who understand that, you know, they cherish democracy, they cherish
00:56:12.040democratic values. But unfortunately, they have so often become the silent majority. And the very
00:56:21.100loud minority and the very violent minority has unfortunately managed to polarize the spectrum.
00:56:29.080So the question I think that we'll have is whether the very reasonable people that are the majority
00:56:35.700will at some point wake up and, you know, save the country, save the European Union,
00:56:43.960because at the end of the day, you know, this is what it's about. It is a civilizational battle
00:56:49.760And it's frankly a battle for Western values, as we haven't had, I believe, since the end of the Cold War.
00:57:01.460We'd love to stay in touch with you, Simone.
00:57:04.120I so enjoyed your article and a lot of the stuff that you write, and thank you for being able to explain it.
00:57:10.620I'd love to hear your opinion on this.
00:57:13.720I fear this is the first domino that could fall.
00:57:19.160Europe is in the same situation. Great Britain is in the same situation. We are. We're just way behind you, but not that far behind. And any opinion on that if we're going to see this spread?
00:57:33.260Listen, I believe I wrote an article more than a decade ago, and that time it was about the issue of anti-Semitism. And I said that the issue of anti-Semitism is usually always a warning sign for when societies are falling apart.
00:57:54.000and that what France was experiencing 10 years ago
00:57:59.300would certainly at some point be coming to the United States.
00:58:02.980I'm seeing what's currently going on in the U.S.
00:58:05.380And I have to say, I'm seeing the same signals.
