00:04:08.560 in time
00:04:11.980 to 1975
00:04:15.060 and it was 1975
00:04:18.100 in saigon
00:04:20.200 april 30th and this is what happened
00:04:23.640 americans and other foreigners lined up at installations around saigon waiting for buses
00:04:29.060 was the huge it told the vietnamese that this was the end of the line for most of those who wanted to leave their country
00:04:36.060 this would be their last chance some americans who pushed towards the bus tried to pull their vietnamese wives and children
00:04:44.060 along with them
00:04:51.060 there were desperate scenes with families separated and crying out for help pleading not to be left behind
00:04:59.060 clutching in the last straw boat
00:05:01.060 we rode through the streets of saigon for more than four hours unable to find a way out
00:05:06.060 or anyone who could tell us where to go
00:05:09.060 at thompson at airport armed paratroopers turned our buses back
00:05:13.060 at one point
00:05:15.060 at one point we were unloaded on the saigon waterfront where we could see american helicopters circling the city
00:05:20.060 and vietnamese trying to escape on boats heading to the sea
00:05:24.060 no one wanted to be left in this crowd that at times was strangely quiet
00:05:29.060 but that always was on the verge of panic
00:05:31.060 we all decided to try and reach the united states embassy
00:05:35.060 and once there we found it surrounded by vietnamese looking for a way in and a way out
00:05:41.060 helicopters were landing on the roof and inside the compound as we walked to the back of the embassy
00:05:47.060 we had to push and shove our way through a crowd of several hundred vietnamese trying to scale the walls
00:05:54.060 only to be knocked back by u.s marines
00:05:57.060 once inside the compound were the americans and those vietnamese who managed to get in with legal documents
00:06:03.060 and the many who managed entrance without
00:06:06.060 the rest was easy
00:06:08.060 it was just a matter of waiting your turn for a helicopter to take you to one of the ships on station off the vietnamese coast
00:06:14.060 now back in july of this year
00:06:17.060 here is a press conference with joe biden on the the end of the war in afghanistan
00:06:28.060 is a taliban takeover of afghanistan now inevitable
00:06:32.060 no it is not
00:06:34.060 why
00:06:35.060 because you have the afghan troops have three hundred thousand
00:06:39.060 well equipped as well as equipped as any army in the world
00:06:44.060 and an air force
00:06:46.060 against something like seventy five thousand taliban
00:06:50.060 it is not inevitable
00:06:52.060 your own intelligence community has assessed that the afghan government will likely collapse
00:06:57.060 that is not true
00:06:58.060 is it can you please clarify what they have told you about whether that will happen or not
00:07:03.060 that is not true
00:07:04.060 that is not true
00:07:05.060 they did not they did not reach that conclusion
00:07:08.060 so what is the level of confidence that they have that it will not collapse
00:07:13.060 the afghan government and leadership has to come together
00:07:18.060 they clearly have the capacity to sustain the government in place
00:07:25.060 the question is
00:07:27.060 will they generate the kind of cohesion to do it
00:07:32.060 this weekend
00:07:35.060 we saw the most humiliating
00:07:40.060 evacuation
00:07:42.060 of the american
00:07:44.060 the billion dollar
00:07:46.060 american embassy
00:07:48.060 we
00:07:50.060 have been treated to the pictures and the video of the taliban coming in
00:08:00.060 now
00:08:01.060 supported by u.s. drones
00:08:04.060 why
00:08:06.060 because apparently our military left them behind
00:08:12.060 along with a gigantic cache of weapons
00:08:17.060 we didn't feel it was necessary to take them back
00:08:24.060 we have
00:08:26.060 put ourselves
00:08:28.060 back into the exact situation we were in
00:08:32.060 on september 10th
00:08:35.060 2001
00:08:38.060 what's worse
00:08:40.060 imagine if we would have gone into germany
00:08:43.060 and beat the germans
00:08:44.060 the germans
00:08:45.060 but we knew
00:08:46.060 that nazis
00:08:47.060 were in hiding
00:08:48.060 and they were everywhere
00:08:50.060 and we decided to leave
00:08:53.060 and the nazis
00:08:55.060 took power
00:08:56.060 again
00:08:58.060 do you think they would fear the united states
00:09:03.060 do you think anyone on earth would fear the united states
00:09:08.060 or would they say
00:09:11.060 there's no appetite for war
00:09:13.060 they all you have to do is wait them out
00:09:17.060 we've already sent that message in vietnam
00:09:21.060 but joe biden has sent that message
00:09:25.060 unlike any other time in american history
00:09:28.060 our allies
00:09:31.060 have called emergency meetings
00:09:35.060 without us
00:09:37.060 our allies
00:09:39.060 england
00:09:41.060 france
00:09:43.060 they are all now scrambling
00:09:45.060 saying we cannot allow this to stand
00:09:48.060 but they now know
00:09:50.060 they're in a leadership role
00:09:53.060 because
00:09:54.060 we're gone
00:09:55.060 and we left them
00:09:58.060 with military weapons
00:10:01.060 and drones
00:10:03.060 i wanted to bring in
00:10:10.060 i wanted to bring in
00:10:12.060 jason buttrill
00:10:13.060 who is
00:10:15.060 our head researcher
00:10:17.060 and when i saw him this morning
00:10:20.060 i noticed that his eyes were all puffy
00:10:24.060 either lack of sleep
00:10:26.060 allergies
00:10:27.060 or a very stressful weekend
00:10:30.060 he was in afghanistan
00:10:33.060 one of the first marines
00:10:34.060 to go in
00:10:36.060 to afghanistan
00:10:37.060 and fight there
00:10:40.060 jason
00:10:41.060 how are you
00:10:43.060 um
00:10:44.060 pissed off
00:10:45.060 i think is the
00:10:46.060 more accurate safe way
00:10:47.060 to describe how i feel today
00:10:49.060 um
00:10:50.060 i was one of the lucky ones
00:10:52.060 i was one of the ones that uh
00:10:53.060 had a mission
00:10:54.060 when we went there
00:10:56.060 uh
00:10:57.060 you know we saw the first bombs drop
00:10:58.060 we fired the first shots
00:10:59.060 and our mission was clear
00:11:01.060 uh
00:11:02.060 kill the taliban
00:11:03.060 kill al-qaeda
00:11:04.060 um
00:11:05.060 knock them out of government
00:11:06.060 that was my mission
00:11:07.060 because the follow-on mission
00:11:08.060 and i saw it in the faces of the people that relieved us
00:11:10.060 the occupation force
00:11:12.060 they didn't really know what the hell their mission was
00:11:15.060 and i can tell you that
00:11:17.060 that
00:11:18.060 continued for 20 years
00:11:20.060 um
00:11:21.060 that continued for 20 years
00:11:22.060 the people on the ground
00:11:23.060 would tell anyone
00:11:24.060 what the situation was
00:11:25.060 and that was
00:11:26.060 we cannot trust this military
00:11:27.060 now there are some good afghan fighters
00:11:29.060 and i tip my hat to them
00:11:30.060 and i think a lot of us that fought there
00:11:32.060 could probably name them by name
00:11:33.060 name them by name
00:11:34.060 um
00:11:35.060 some very brave men
00:11:36.060 the afghan people are
00:11:37.060 but as a whole
00:11:38.060 the afghan army could not be trusted
00:11:40.060 um
00:11:41.060 we would get the news reports
00:11:42.060 for years
00:11:43.060 you know
00:11:44.060 u.s soldiers shot in the back
00:11:45.060 um
00:11:46.060 where did those news reports go
00:11:48.060 i stopped seeing them
00:11:49.060 because
00:11:50.060 apparently u.s soldiers became a statistic
00:11:52.060 not worthy of anything more
00:11:53.060 um
00:11:54.060 and that proceeded for another 20
00:11:56.060 you know
00:11:57.060 19-20 years
00:11:58.060 um
00:11:59.060 now
00:12:00.060 you gotta look back and say
00:12:01.060 what was your plan
00:12:02.060 as many of us were getting shot in the back by these people
00:12:04.060 because apparently
00:12:05.060 someone in the
00:12:06.060 biden administration
00:12:07.060 was telling them
00:12:08.060 that they were fine
00:12:09.060 they were good to go
00:12:10.060 they were good to go
00:12:11.060 you played that clip
00:12:12.060 a month ago
00:12:13.060 they were good to go
00:12:14.060 now who was telling the president that
00:12:16.060 was the president lying
00:12:18.060 when he said the intelligence community
00:12:19.060 was telling you they're not ready
00:12:20.060 i i don't know
00:12:22.060 but as i saw this morning
00:12:23.060 there were leaks
00:12:24.060 were starting to come
00:12:25.060 predictably
00:12:26.060 at the intelligence community
00:12:27.060 saying no no
00:12:28.060 we were telling him
00:12:29.060 the situation was not tenable
00:12:31.060 it
00:12:32.060 this was going to happen
00:12:33.060 and it did happen
00:12:34.060 so
00:12:35.060 was it the military personnel
00:12:36.060 i wanted to give you
00:12:37.060 a little context of the military personnel
00:12:38.060 on the ground
00:12:39.060 um
00:12:40.060 back when isis swept through
00:12:41.060 syria and
00:12:42.060 and iraq
00:12:43.060 the head of CENTCOM
00:12:44.060 was general lloyd austin
00:12:45.060 he was a head
00:12:46.060 the commanding general
00:12:47.060 when they said hey
00:12:48.060 um
00:12:49.060 you know the what's going on
00:12:50.060 right now
00:12:51.060 it seems a little fishy
00:12:52.060 why are the news
00:12:53.060 why are the intelligence reports
00:12:54.060 coming out saying that
00:12:55.060 everything's rosy
00:12:56.060 when the situation was not rosy
00:12:58.060 well the scandal came out
00:12:59.060 the intelligence reports
00:13:00.060 were being doctored
00:13:01.060 just to make the administration
00:13:03.060 look good
00:13:04.060 to make president obama look good
00:13:06.060 general lloyd austin
00:13:07.060 for some reason
00:13:08.060 didn't go down for that
00:13:09.060 he's now the secretary of defense
00:13:10.060 so is this any surprise at all
00:13:12.060 that these people
00:13:13.060 are now in command
00:13:14.060 it's it's not a surprise
00:13:16.060 to me at all
00:13:17.060 it's a simultaneously
00:13:18.060 simultaneously
00:13:19.060 uh simultaneous throat
00:13:20.060 and gut punch
00:13:21.060 today
00:13:22.060 from england
00:13:24.060 the
00:13:25.060 um
00:13:27.060 the fact that
00:13:29.060 the pentagon
00:13:31.060 has been
00:13:33.060 focused on
00:13:35.060 woke politics
00:13:37.060 any comment on
00:13:41.060 their focus
00:13:42.060 yeah
00:13:43.060 general milley
00:13:44.060 where's your resignation
00:13:45.060 that's what i'd like to know
00:13:47.060 um you're so focused on that
00:13:49.060 for standing down the military
00:13:50.060 for what was it a week to a month
00:13:52.060 i can't remember what it was
00:13:53.060 to address extremism in the military
00:13:55.060 is that what you were focused on
00:13:57.060 and not listening to your battle
00:13:58.060 commanders on the ground
00:13:59.060 is that possibly what was happening
00:14:01.060 i would love to hear from general milley
00:14:04.060 i'd love for him to call in this morning
00:14:05.060 just so we could ask him
00:14:06.060 are do you plan on resigning
00:14:08.060 i would love to know
00:14:09.060 we're reaching out to general milley
00:14:11.060 um asking him to join us today
00:14:13.060 and also asking just for a statement
00:14:16.060 on the question
00:14:18.060 are you resigning
00:14:20.060 but it's it's and it's not just him
00:14:23.060 it's the entire government is focused on that
00:14:26.060 and we pointed that out
00:14:27.060 the department of homeland security
00:14:29.060 the intelligence community
00:14:30.060 they all made a hard pivot
00:14:31.060 towards wokeness
00:14:33.060 and extremism in the military
00:14:36.060 they never did this
00:14:37.060 when uh you know we found out
00:14:39.060 that there were terrorists in the military
00:14:41.060 uh the you know back during
00:14:43.060 the fort hood shooting in texas
00:14:45.060 uh they never stood the military down then
00:14:47.060 they never did what they were doing now
00:14:48.060 why
00:14:49.060 well i mean i'm sure they were doing
00:14:51.060 their investigations
00:14:52.060 but it's probably not a good thing
00:14:53.060 to reorient the entire thinking
00:14:54.060 of the military and intelligence community
00:14:56.060 during times of crisis
00:14:58.060 that's what we're in right now
00:14:59.060 what's amazing to me is
00:15:00.060 all the excuses glenn
00:15:02.060 all the excuses
00:15:03.060 first
00:15:04.060 now we're not hearing anything
00:15:05.060 from the administration now
00:15:06.060 apparently
00:15:07.060 we don't
00:15:08.060 rate
00:15:09.060 a explanation
00:15:10.060 from this administration
00:15:11.060 well i mean they're still
00:15:12.060 on vacation
00:15:13.060 biden's on vacation
00:15:14.060 saki's gone on vacation
00:15:15.060 um
00:15:16.060 which is weird
00:15:17.060 but apparently that
00:15:18.060 we don't we don't rate
00:15:19.060 any other kind of explanation
00:15:20.060 we got that one ridiculous statement
00:15:22.060 that uh
00:15:23.060 uh nancy pelosi was praising
00:15:25.060 uh yesterday
00:15:26.060 but that one ridiculous statement
00:15:27.060 where
00:15:28.060 the president was like
00:15:29.060 well apparently
00:15:30.060 you know i inherited this from the trump administration
00:15:33.060 get out
00:15:34.060 you cannot have it both ways
00:15:36.060 you cannot go in day one
00:15:38.060 of your administration
00:15:39.060 with this big spectacle of signing executive orders
00:15:41.060 erasing everything the president did
00:15:43.060 erasing all of his personnel
00:15:45.060 from your cabinet
00:15:46.060 getting rid of all the bureaucrats
00:15:48.060 and everything that trump put in
00:15:49.060 and now say
00:15:50.060 in this one instance
00:15:52.060 it was his fault
00:15:53.060 we don't even know
00:15:54.060 what trump's plan was
00:15:55.060 i i was a critic on friday
00:15:57.060 when i came on and said
00:15:58.060 look we shouldn't have been getting out of there
00:15:59.060 in the summer months period
00:16:01.060 um which i think that was part of trump's uh plan
00:16:03.060 right
00:16:04.060 we should have waited till the winter
00:16:05.060 but i don't know what the rest of his plan was
00:16:08.060 you can't say
00:16:09.060 everything else he did was bad
00:16:10.060 what he planned in afghanistan
00:16:11.060 we stuck to
00:16:12.060 oh so that was the one thing huh
00:16:14.060 that was the one thing you stuck to now
00:16:16.060 it's his fault
00:16:17.060 and we also saw from general lloyd austin
00:16:19.060 he was very very clear
00:16:20.060 he's like well
00:16:21.060 you know um
00:16:22.060 it's really crazy
00:16:23.060 you know the afghan army
00:16:24.060 it's you know it's all on them
00:16:25.060 no
00:16:26.060 again you can't put it on the afghan army
00:16:28.060 you can't have it both ways
00:16:29.060 you can't say a month ago
00:16:31.060 all signs point to
00:16:32.060 they're ready
00:16:33.060 they're capable
00:16:34.060 they can defend
00:16:35.060 so that and because of that
00:16:36.060 that's why we're getting out
00:16:37.060 but today
00:16:38.060 the day that afghans falling
00:16:40.060 afghanistan's falling
00:16:41.060 and the day after you're saying
00:16:42.060 oh it's all on them
00:16:43.060 you cannot have it both ways on this
00:16:45.060 i want mass resignations on this
00:16:47.060 massive resignations for this
00:16:49.060 and if congress doesn't have the balls to hold them to it
00:16:51.060 then i want a
00:16:53.060 daniel ellsberg-esque
00:16:55.060 whistleblower
00:16:56.060 somewhere within the intel community
00:16:57.060 which i think it's going to happen
00:16:58.060 because they're not going down for this
00:16:59.060 intelligence community is not going down for this
00:17:01.060 you saw them weaponized against trump
00:17:03.060 they will weaponize against president biden
00:17:05.060 almost guarantee it
00:17:06.060 but we need someone to leak
00:17:08.060 who is to blame for that
00:17:09.060 who is feeding false information
00:17:10.060 what do they have to gain
00:17:12.060 do you believe they were feeding false information
00:17:16.060 or do you believe
00:17:18.060 that they just didn't care
00:17:20.060 the white house didn't care
00:17:22.060 i absolutely believe they are
00:17:24.060 funneling false information
00:17:26.060 absolutely
00:17:27.060 i mean you saw it in with
00:17:29.060 this is how it works
00:17:30.060 you saw it in isis
00:17:31.060 it becomes political
00:17:32.060 dead soldiers become statistics
00:17:34.060 they really do
00:17:35.060 and that does not look good for administrations
00:17:37.060 and i think this goes for 20 years
00:17:38.060 but i absolutely think people are involved with saying
00:17:40.060 look there's a very rosy picture
00:17:42.060 we got it all under control
00:17:43.060 i think it's time we get those people
00:17:45.060 out of the establishment
00:17:47.060 ASAP
00:17:48.060 back in just a second
00:17:50.060 first
00:17:51.060 let me tell you about american financing
00:17:54.060 american financing
00:17:55.060 nmls182334
00:17:57.060 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org
00:18:00.060 mortgage rates are still hovering at historic lows
00:18:03.060 and you could probably just to go
00:18:05.060 but just about anywhere to save money
00:18:07.060 with mortgage refinancing
00:18:09.060 or debt consolidation loans
00:18:11.060 but that doesn't mean you should
00:18:13.060 the reason that this is the only mortgage lender
00:18:17.060 that i have ever recommended
00:18:19.060 american financing
00:18:21.060 the reason is i believe in them
00:18:23.060 i i put them to the test in 2007
00:18:27.060 when they called up the first time
00:18:29.060 and said we would like to sponsor
00:18:31.060 be a sponsor on your show
00:18:32.060 and i said no i don't think so
00:18:34.060 they said why and i said because
00:18:36.060 i don't believe mortgage companies
00:18:38.060 are on the up and up
00:18:39.060 they are currently jamming people
00:18:41.060 into these mortgages
00:18:43.060 that are stupid
00:18:45.060 and you're all going to pay for it
00:18:49.060 a they didn't pay for it
00:18:51.060 because they didn't do that
00:18:52.060 to the people that were getting mortgages
00:18:55.060 and the rest of the banks
00:18:57.060 they didn't pay for it
00:18:59.060 because we ended up paying for TARP
00:19:01.060 well american financing
00:19:04.060 has never been a part of any of that
00:19:07.060 in fact they don't work for the banks
00:19:09.060 they work for you
00:19:10.060 so i want you if you are looking to save money
00:19:13.060 and you can refinance your mortgage
00:19:16.060 you have a mortgage rate over 4%
00:19:18.060 or you have high interest credit cards
00:19:21.060 pay them off
00:19:23.060 go to american financing

00:19:34.060 10 seconds station id
00:19:36.060 nancy pelosi said
00:19:49.060 that joe biden is to be quote
00:19:51.060 commended for the action he has taken in afghanistan
00:19:55.060 she said the taliban must know
00:19:58.060 that the world is watching its actions
00:20:01.060 we are deeply concerned about the reports
00:20:03.060 regarding the taliban's brutal treatment of all afghans
00:20:06.060 especially women and girls
00:20:09.060 the u.s. the international community
00:20:11.060 and the afghan government
00:20:12.060 must do everything we can do
00:20:14.060 to protect women and girls
00:20:16.060 from inhumane treatment by the taliban
00:20:19.060 any political settlement that the afghans pursue
00:20:22.060 to avert bloodshed must include
00:20:24.060 having women at the table
00:20:26.060 the fate of women and girls in afghanistan
00:20:28.060 is crucial to the future of afghanistan
00:20:31.060 and we strive to assist women
00:20:34.060 we must recognize that their voices are important
00:20:37.060 and all must listen to them for solutions
00:20:40.060 respectful of their culture
00:20:42.060 there there is bipartisan support
00:20:44.060 to assist the women and girls of afghanistan
00:20:48.060 jason
00:20:51.060 i think the taliban were gonna you know put sharia in place
00:20:54.060 but when they saw that tweet
00:20:56.060 they probably said okay fine
00:20:57.060 you know we'll do a western style democracy now
00:21:00.060 now we get it
00:21:01.060 yeah
00:21:03.060 it is uh
00:21:04.060 it's remarkable to me
00:21:06.060 how we have left so many people behind
00:21:09.060 have any of you guys seen the
00:21:12.060 the um
00:21:14.060 the
00:21:15.060 the graphic videos
00:21:16.060 can we roll this please
00:21:18.060 of
00:21:19.060 just
00:21:20.060 walking down the street
00:21:22.060 these are people
00:21:23.060 the dead bodies in the street
00:21:25.060 this is just
00:21:27.060 the people that
00:21:29.060 as the taliban was coming through
00:21:31.060 they pulled out of houses
00:21:32.060 they pulled out of their cars
00:21:34.060 and just shot them
00:21:36.060 and left them on the streets
00:21:38.060 nobody's willing to come and get them
00:21:42.060 because the taliban would like them to remain in the streets
00:21:46.060 as a reminder that they are back
00:21:49.060 we told you last friday that they were already going door to door
00:21:53.060 taking girls as young as 12
00:21:57.060 for their brides
00:21:59.060 when we come back i am going to uh share with you

00:23:06.060 with the female workers
00:23:08.060 at the local tavern
00:23:10.060 only to come home and sit down on the couch and watch a movie with me and my family
00:23:14.060 and see all that nonsense on tv
00:23:16.060 arg arg arg arg arg
00:23:19.060 uh really honestly
00:23:21.060 um what you're seeing on television right now and in all of the movies is changing us as a culture
00:23:29.060 and if you are like me and you're tired of going okay there's nothing on tv to watch
00:23:36.060 there is nothing without really bad language or steamy sex scenes or whatever it is

00:24:28.060 did this uh cut five they were uh
00:24:34.060 singing the quran which is beautiful and lovely and i love this particular tune
00:24:40.060 uh you know who didn't have a press conference
00:24:43.060 the white house
00:24:45.060 you know who didn't or wasn't seen in public
00:24:49.060 joe biden
00:24:50.060 where's joe biden
00:24:52.060 why
00:24:54.060 is he not speaking out
00:24:57.060 where was he
00:25:01.060 as the
00:25:03.060 masses
00:25:04.060 try to flee
00:25:05.060 from kabul
00:25:08.060 prisoners
00:25:09.060 have been released
00:25:11.060 only five
00:25:12.060 thousand
00:25:13.060 prisoners
00:25:14.060 were released
00:25:16.060 this is the
00:25:17.060 video of it
00:25:18.060 in the audio
00:25:22.060 five
00:25:23.060 thousand
00:25:25.060 prisoners
00:25:26.060 some of them
00:25:27.060 al qaeda
00:25:28.060 some of them
00:25:29.060 Taliban
00:25:30.060 and they were just
00:25:31.060 released
00:25:32.060 probably because
00:25:33.060 of covid
00:25:34.060 i think the
00:25:35.060 Taliban
00:25:36.060 is concerned
00:25:37.060 with the spread of
00:25:38.060 covid
00:25:39.060 in the prisons
00:25:40.060 and
00:25:41.060 wanted to find
00:25:42.060 you know
00:25:43.060 some way to deal with it
00:25:44.060 and they looked to
00:25:45.060 bill de Blasio
00:25:46.060 and
00:25:47.060 Gavin Newsom
00:25:48.060 and they decided
00:25:49.060 just to open up the prisons
00:25:51.060 because of covid
00:25:52.060 i'm sure
00:25:53.060 nothing
00:25:55.060 will
00:25:57.060 will go wrong there
00:25:59.060 meanwhile
00:26:01.060 the worst is happening
00:26:03.060 i want to
00:26:04.060 i want to
00:26:05.060 i want to give you a story
00:26:06.060 from
00:26:07.060 the
00:26:08.060 new york
00:26:09.060 times
00:26:10.060 now
00:26:11.060 listen to how
00:26:12.060 this story
00:26:13.060 you've seen the pictures
00:26:14.060 you know what's going on
00:26:16.060 listen to this
00:26:18.060 it was his first day
00:26:20.060 as the Taliban
00:26:21.060 appointed mayor
00:26:22.060 of kanduz
00:26:24.060 his name is
00:26:25.060 gul mohammed
00:26:26.060 Elias
00:26:27.060 he was on a charm
00:26:28.060 offensive
00:26:29.060 last Sunday
00:26:30.060 the insurgents
00:26:31.060 seized control of the city
00:26:32.060 in northern Afghanistan
00:26:33.060 which is in shambles
00:26:34.060 after weeks of fighting
00:26:35.060 power lines were down
00:26:36.060 water supply
00:26:37.060 powered by generators
00:26:39.060 didn't reach most residents
00:26:41.060 trash and rubble
00:26:42.060 littered the streets
00:26:43.060 the civil servants
00:26:44.060 who could fix these problems
00:26:45.060 were hiding at home
00:26:48.060 terrified of the Taliban's return
00:26:50.060 so the insurgent commander
00:26:52.060 turned mayor
00:26:53.060 summoned some to his new office
00:26:55.060 and persuaded them
00:26:56.060 to return to work
00:26:57.060 he said
00:26:58.060 quote
00:26:59.060 our jihad
00:27:00.060 is not with you
00:27:01.060 in the municipality
00:27:03.060 our jihad
00:27:04.060 is against the occupiers
00:27:06.060 and those
00:27:07.060 who defend
00:27:08.060 the occupiers
00:27:09.060 Mr. Elias
00:27:10.060 told the New York Times
00:27:11.060 by telephone
00:27:12.060 but day by day
00:27:14.060 as municipal offices
00:27:16.060 stayed mostly empty
00:27:17.060 Mr. Elias
00:27:18.060 grew more frustrated
00:27:19.060 and his rhetoric
00:27:21.060 grew a little harsher
00:27:23.060 Taliban fighters
00:27:25.060 began going door to door
00:27:26.060 searching for absentee
00:27:27.060 civil workers
00:27:28.060 hundreds of armed men
00:27:30.060 set up checkpoints
00:27:31.060 across the city
00:27:32.060 at the entrance
00:27:33.060 to the regional hospital
00:27:34.060 a new notice
00:27:35.060 appeared on the wall
00:27:36.060 employees must return
00:27:38.060 to work
00:27:39.060 or face punishment
00:27:40.060 from the Taliban
00:27:42.060 just a week after
00:27:43.060 the fall of the city
00:27:44.060 the first in a series
00:27:45.060 of cities
00:27:46.060 that the Taliban seized
00:27:47.060 with breathtaking speed
00:27:48.060 the insurgents
00:27:50.060 are now in effective
00:27:51.060 control of
00:27:52.060 all of Afghanistan
00:27:54.060 and they now must
00:27:55.060 function as administrators
00:27:56.060 that can provide
00:27:57.060 basic services
00:27:58.060 to hundreds of thousands
00:28:00.060 of people
00:28:01.060 and the experience
00:28:02.060 of those in Kunduz
00:28:03.060 offers a glimpse
00:28:04.060 of how the Taliban
00:28:05.060 may govern
00:28:06.060 and what may be in store
00:28:08.060 for the rest of the country
00:28:09.060 in just days
00:28:11.060 the insurgents
00:28:12.060 frustrated with their
00:28:13.060 failed efforts
00:28:14.060 to cajole civilian
00:28:15.060 civil servants
00:28:16.060 back into work
00:28:17.060 began instilling
00:28:19.060 a little terror
00:28:20.060 according to the residents
00:28:22.060 reached by telephone
00:28:23.060 I'm afraid
00:28:24.060 because I don't know
00:28:25.060 what will happen next
00:28:26.060 or what they will do
00:28:27.060 said one who asked
00:28:28.060 not to be identified
00:28:30.060 for fear of retaliation
00:28:31.060 by the Taliban
00:28:33.060 three days after the Taliban
00:28:35.060 took control of Kunduz
00:28:37.060 the civil civil servant
00:28:39.060 received a call
00:28:40.060 from an insurgent fighter
00:28:42.060 telling him to go
00:28:43.060 to his office
00:28:44.060 the mayor of Kunduz
00:28:46.060 wanted to speak with him
00:28:47.060 the mayor
00:28:50.060 invited
00:28:51.060 Mr. Omar
00:28:53.060 Hill
00:28:54.060 who had been staying home
00:28:56.060 since the retreat
00:28:57.060 of the government forces
00:28:58.060 as insurgents flooded
00:28:59.060 into the streets
00:29:00.060 and a sense of unease
00:29:01.060 gripped the battered city
00:29:02.060 he had experienced
00:29:03.060 a similar moment
00:29:04.060 twice before
00:29:05.060 when the Taliban
00:29:07.060 briefly
00:29:08.060 in 2015
00:29:09.060 and 2016
00:29:10.060 seized the city
00:29:11.060 both times
00:29:12.060 the insurgents
00:29:13.060 were pushed back
00:29:14.060 with the help of American
00:29:15.060 airstrikes
00:29:16.060 but this time
00:29:17.060 days after the Taliban
00:29:18.060 took control
00:29:19.060 the entire Afghan army
00:29:20.060 corps
00:29:21.060 charged with reclaiming
00:29:22.060 the city
00:29:23.060 surrendered to the insurgents
00:29:24.060 they handed over
00:29:25.060 all their weapons
00:29:26.060 and vehicles
00:29:27.060 in a stark sign
00:29:29.060 that they would not
00:29:30.060 be rescued
00:29:32.060 when he arrived
00:29:33.060 at the municipal office
00:29:34.060 to speak to the new mayor
00:29:36.060 the sprawling compound
00:29:37.060 looked eerily untouched
00:29:39.060 by war
00:29:40.060 but the New York Times
00:29:42.060 writes
00:29:43.060 inside the building
00:29:44.060 he joined
00:29:45.060 eight municipal employees
00:29:47.060 and Mr. Elias
00:29:48.060 you know
00:29:49.060 the new mayor
00:29:50.060 he introduced himself
00:29:52.060 as the new mayor
00:29:53.060 a young man
00:29:54.060 with a long beard
00:29:55.060 Mr. Elias
00:29:56.060 assured them
00:29:57.060 that they would not
00:29:58.060 be targeted
00:29:59.060 by the Taliban
00:30:00.060 and instructed them
00:30:01.060 to return to work
00:30:02.060 to improve
00:30:03.060 people's lives
00:30:04.060 and morale
00:30:05.060 sharing his mobile number
00:30:07.060 he told them
00:30:08.060 if you have any trouble
00:30:09.060 with the Taliban fighters
00:30:11.060 we've captured the city
00:30:13.060 and now we can assure
00:30:14.060 the people
00:30:15.060 that we will provide
00:30:16.060 the basic services
00:30:18.060 the mayor was quoted
00:30:19.060 in another phone interview
00:30:22.060 halfway through the meeting
00:30:23.060 a shopkeeper
00:30:24.060 pleaded with the Taliban
00:30:25.060 bodyguard
00:30:26.060 to see the mayor
00:30:27.060 like hundreds of others
00:30:28.060 his kiosk
00:30:29.060 had been mostly destroyed
00:30:30.060 by fire
00:30:31.060 during the Taliban's
00:30:32.060 final push
00:30:33.060 he said shopkeepers
00:30:34.060 fearing for what remained
00:30:35.060 of their stores
00:30:36.060 that they would be looted
00:30:38.060 wanted the Taliban's promise
00:30:39.060 that they could return
00:30:40.060 to the market
00:30:41.060 to collect their things safely
00:30:42.060 the mayor complied
00:30:44.060 he even provided
00:30:45.060 reimbursement
00:30:46.060 for the taxi
00:30:47.060 and bus fare
00:30:48.060 that they spent
00:30:49.060 on moving their goods
00:30:51.060 for the rest of the day
00:30:52.060 the mayor met
00:30:53.060 with other municipal leaders
00:30:55.060 trying to get services restored
00:30:57.060 at the state owned
00:30:58.060 water and sewage corporation
00:31:00.060 he demanded
00:31:01.060 that the water supply
00:31:02.060 be turned back on
00:31:03.060 when a manager told him
00:31:04.060 the power lines
00:31:05.060 would first have to be repaired
00:31:07.060 he told the director
00:31:08.060 of the electrical
00:31:09.060 electricity department
00:31:11.060 to compel his employees
00:31:12.060 to return
00:31:13.060 at the local health department
00:31:15.060 the new Taliban
00:31:16.060 director of health
00:31:17.060 delivered the same message
00:31:19.060 to the hospital staff
00:31:20.060 and insurgent fighters
00:31:22.060 gave water to the health workers
00:31:24.060 and offered 500 Afghanis
00:31:26.060 around $6
00:31:27.060 to each of the hospital guards
00:31:29.060 to pay for a dinner
00:31:31.060 that night
00:31:32.060 there was some good progress
00:31:35.060 writes the New York Times
00:31:37.060 oh
00:31:39.060 my gosh
00:31:42.060 I bet they get a Nobel Prize for this
00:31:45.060 I bet they
00:31:46.060 I bet they
00:31:47.060 it's got to win a Pulitzer
00:31:48.060 don't you think
00:31:49.060 did Rashida Tlaib
00:31:50.060 and uh
00:31:51.060 Ilhan Omar
00:31:52.060 write that article
00:31:53.060 uh
00:31:54.060 isn't that amazing
00:31:55.060 isn't that amazing
00:31:56.060 I will say that the Times
00:31:59.060 did write some pretty
00:32:00.060 devastating things
00:32:01.060 about this as well
00:32:02.060 along with a lot of other
00:32:03.060 mainstream media
00:32:04.060 I mean
00:32:05.060 a lot of these headlines
00:32:06.060 the Atlantic
00:32:08.060 uh this headline is
00:32:09.060 Biden's betrayal of Afghans
00:32:11.060 will live in infamy
00:32:13.060 and there's a lot
00:32:15.060 I think just how quickly
00:32:16.060 and how terribly this has turned
00:32:19.060 has even shaken some
00:32:21.060 of the mainstream media people
00:32:22.060 the mainstream media people
00:32:23.060 now of course
00:32:24.060 they'll probably come back
00:32:25.060 uh eventually here
00:32:26.060 but I was surprised to see
00:32:27.060 the
00:32:28.060 even mainstream coverage
00:32:29.060 being largely critical
00:32:30.060 with the exception
00:32:31.060 of course
00:32:32.060 notably
00:32:33.060 of what you just read
00:32:34.060 which was pathetic
00:32:35.060 um
00:32:36.060 the fecklessness
00:32:37.060 this one is
00:32:38.060 uh
00:32:39.060 written by the
00:32:40.060 Bulwark.com
00:32:41.060 I like this one
00:32:42.060 the fecklessness is not limited
00:32:43.060 to Biden himself
00:32:44.060 his wider administration
00:32:45.060 is complicit
00:32:46.060 State Department spokesman
00:32:47.060 Ned Price
00:32:48.060 has conceded the Taliban
00:32:49.060 is already committing
00:32:50.060 war times
00:32:51.060 but he warned them
00:32:52.060 that if they continue
00:32:53.060 they'd be internationally
00:32:55.060 isolated
00:32:56.060 cool
00:32:57.060 not into
00:32:58.060 really
00:32:59.060 internationally
00:33:00.060 isolated
00:33:01.060 oh boy
00:33:02.060 they're gonna be cancelled
00:33:03.060 culpability
00:33:04.060 for the disaster
00:33:05.060 rests on one other place
00:33:07.060 they write
00:33:08.060 the American people
00:33:11.060 White House officials
00:33:12.060 have privately
00:33:13.060 reassured themselves
00:33:14.060 by noting that polls
00:33:15.060 show an overwhelming
00:33:16.060 majority of Americans
00:33:17.060 support withdrawing
00:33:18.060 the troops from
00:33:19.060 Afghanistan
00:33:20.060 according to the hill
00:33:22.060 so the Biden teams
00:33:24.060 find reassure
00:33:25.060 reassurance in the fact
00:33:26.060 that most Americans
00:33:27.060 don't care about the risk
00:33:29.060 of another 9-11
00:33:30.060 ethnic cleansing
00:33:32.060 or the destruction
00:33:33.060 of a future
00:33:35.060 for Afghan women
00:33:37.060 really
00:33:39.060 so they are blaming
00:33:40.060 the American people
00:33:42.060 for that
00:33:43.060 a
00:33:44.060 that's what leadership
00:33:45.060 is all about
00:33:47.060 and B
00:33:48.060 I don't know about you
00:33:50.060 but I do care
00:33:52.060 about the women
00:33:54.060 and the children
00:33:55.060 and the future
00:33:56.060 of the women
00:33:57.060 and children
00:33:58.060 in Afghanistan
00:33:59.060 I do care about
00:34:00.060 the risk of another
00:34:01.060 9-11
00:34:02.060 I do care about
00:34:03.060 ethnic cleansing
00:34:04.060 I just don't want
00:34:06.060 to be there forever
00:34:08.060 with no mission
00:34:10.060 it doesn't mean
00:34:11.060 oh I don't care
00:34:12.060 just pull out
00:34:13.060 and let the whole
00:34:14.060 thing collapse
00:34:15.060 and let evil
00:34:16.060 just win
00:34:17.060 and sweep
00:34:18.060 a nation
00:34:19.060 what evidence
00:34:20.060 do you have
00:34:21.060 that you care
00:34:22.060 about women
00:34:23.060 in the Middle East
00:34:24.060 being tortured
00:34:25.060 I mean
00:34:26.060 you know
00:34:27.060 only the Nazarene fund
00:34:28.060 right that's it
00:34:29.060 just the Nazarene fund
00:34:30.060 but I mean this is
00:34:31.060 there are a lot
00:34:32.060 of people who wanted
00:34:33.060 to get out of there
00:34:34.060 I mean everyone wants
00:34:35.060 to get out of there
00:34:36.060 at some level
00:34:37.060 was to get out of there
00:34:39.060 with some level
00:34:40.060 of competence
00:34:41.060 it wasn't just like
00:34:42.060 let the entire thing
00:34:43.060 go to flames
00:34:44.060 and have the Taliban
00:34:45.060 inside the presidential
00:34:46.060 palace in two days
00:34:47.060 no one supported that
00:34:49.060 yes there was a
00:34:51.060 there's an idea
00:34:52.060 that people didn't
00:34:53.060 want to be engaged
00:34:54.060 in this area forever
00:34:55.060 but that was
00:34:56.060 to go along with that
00:34:57.060 was the idea
00:34:58.060 that it wouldn't turn
00:34:59.060 into exactly what
00:35:00.060 it turned into
00:35:01.060 in two days
00:35:02.060 in two days
00:35:03.060 I mean you were
00:35:04.060 talking about this Jason
00:35:05.060 we mentioned this
00:35:06.060 you were here
00:35:07.460 you're on my show
00:35:08.420 I don't know a few
00:35:08.920 months ago and you
00:35:09.420 said yeah I think
00:35:10.560 it's gonna be back
00:35:11.240 in Taliban control
00:35:11.940 in six months
00:35:12.540 you came on here
00:35:13.420 the other day
00:35:13.840 and you said hey
00:35:14.320 I think it might be
00:35:15.100 till September 11th
00:35:16.160 we didn't even make
00:35:17.240 it till Monday
00:35:17.820 that was a show
00:35:19.240 we did on Friday
00:35:20.140 and they were in
00:35:21.960 taking pictures
00:35:22.780 and doing press
00:35:23.580 conferences and
00:35:24.260 singing inside the
00:35:25.400 presidential palace
00:35:26.260 two days later
00:35:27.240 the this is the
00:35:30.320 the the most
00:35:33.080 catastrophic handling
00:35:34.400 of any situation
00:35:35.480 of any president
00:35:36.920 in my lifetime
00:35:37.660 I've never seen
00:35:38.920 anything like this
00:35:39.740 I'm continually
00:35:41.020 blown away
00:35:42.800 all weekend
00:35:43.680 at how pathetic
00:35:44.640 this is
00:35:45.180 I've never seen
00:35:46.520 anything like it
00:35:47.420 have you ever seen
00:35:48.040 anything like this
00:35:48.660 yeah I
00:35:49.280 but I am older
00:35:50.300 than you
00:35:50.760 so I saw
00:35:52.240 Iran
00:35:53.720 with Jimmy Carter
00:35:55.040 and I saw
00:35:56.740 with
00:35:57.140 again like that
00:35:58.540 Iran which
00:35:59.440 we didn't have
00:35:59.980 control of Iran
00:36:01.340 right like this
00:36:03.260 is this
00:36:03.980 we were
00:36:04.680 an embassy
00:36:05.580 inside of another
00:36:06.660 country
00:36:07.240 this is
00:36:08.040 yes I understand
00:36:09.120 that we
00:36:09.840 you know we are
00:36:10.780 also an embassy
00:36:11.400 in another country
00:36:12.240 in Afghanistan
00:36:12.760 but that was
00:36:13.360 under our control
00:36:14.300 and our direction
00:36:14.860 for 20 years
00:36:15.500 I was also
00:36:16.100 going to say
00:36:16.560 I'm old enough
00:36:17.300 to remember
00:36:17.840 and I think
00:36:18.540 it was Ford
00:36:19.300 when we pulled
00:36:20.580 out of Vietnam
00:36:22.080 yeah Saigon
00:36:22.840 is the one thing
00:36:23.500 people go back to
00:36:24.300 and everyone
00:36:25.300 knew
00:36:26.540 everyone knew
00:36:27.780 the argument
00:36:28.540 was
00:36:29.040 we pull out
00:36:30.540 the communist
00:36:31.940 will come in
00:36:33.080 and slaughter
00:36:34.560 all of these
00:36:35.680 people
00:36:36.100 and it's going
00:36:37.260 to be a very
00:36:38.200 bad thing
00:36:38.860 no no no
00:36:40.140 they're going
00:36:40.700 to be prepared
00:36:41.520 it's going
00:36:42.000 to be fine
00:36:42.760 we can leave
00:36:43.940 you know
00:36:44.600 it's just a
00:36:45.360 bloodbath over
00:36:46.360 there and we
00:36:46.980 shouldn't be
00:36:47.560 involved in
00:36:48.400 blah blah blah
00:36:49.380 blah blah
00:36:49.920 and they were
00:36:51.580 climbing over
00:36:52.400 the fences
00:36:53.100 of our embassy
00:36:54.640 and when
00:36:55.920 I love this
00:36:57.220 when
00:36:58.220 Blinken
00:36:59.060 said
00:36:59.660 you know
00:37:00.320 this is
00:37:00.920 definitely
00:37:01.640 not
00:37:02.880 not
00:37:04.040 Saigon
00:37:04.540 you are
00:37:05.260 not going
00:37:05.960 to see
00:37:06.380 helicopters
00:37:07.000 land on
00:37:07.640 the roof
00:37:08.120 of our
00:37:08.980 embassy
00:37:09.320 no you
00:37:10.240 know why
00:37:10.720 because our
00:37:11.480 billion dollar
00:37:12.300 embassy
00:37:12.740 had a
00:37:13.840 helicopter
00:37:14.420 landing pad
00:37:15.580 down on
00:37:16.540 the ground
00:37:17.160 not on
00:37:17.980 the roof
00:37:18.420 like we
00:37:18.860 did in
00:37:19.320 Saigon
00:37:19.760 not to
00:37:20.540 mention
00:37:20.680 it's not
00:37:20.960 even our
00:37:21.280 embassy
00:37:21.580 anymore
00:37:21.960 no it's
00:37:22.720 not
00:37:22.960 a billion
00:37:23.500 dollars
00:37:23.860 into the
00:37:24.160 thing
00:37:24.360 just
00:37:24.800 handed it
00:37:25.680 over to
00:37:25.980 them
00:37:26.160 I mean
00:37:26.500 at least
00:37:26.920 though in
00:37:27.320 Saigon
00:37:27.700 test me
00:37:29.560 on my
00:37:29.780 history
00:37:30.060 here
00:37:30.360 but we
00:37:31.620 knew this
00:37:32.080 was coming
00:37:32.520 in Saigon
00:37:33.480 yeah we did
00:37:34.100 and we
00:37:35.400 evacuated a
00:37:37.200 lot of the
00:37:37.600 Americans and
00:37:38.340 we left a
00:37:38.980 specific number
00:37:39.680 I want to
00:37:39.920 say it was
00:37:40.140 1500 or I
00:37:41.360 can't remember
00:37:41.700 exactly how
00:37:42.140 many it
00:37:42.400 was which
00:37:43.260 was our
00:37:43.580 1250
00:37:44.280 that was
00:37:45.160 our belief
00:37:45.640 that we
00:37:45.980 could get
00:37:46.420 we could
00:37:47.160 evacuate those
00:37:48.560 people before
00:37:50.040 the Taliban
00:37:50.680 or in this
00:37:51.880 case the
00:37:53.380 Vietnamese
00:37:53.840 got there
00:37:55.200 so the
00:37:58.180 situation was
00:37:59.040 like we
00:37:59.720 then started
00:38:00.400 evacuating the
00:38:01.600 Vietnamese that
00:38:02.440 we wanted to
00:38:02.860 get out and
00:38:03.880 we had this
00:38:04.440 plan that okay
00:38:05.060 once they
00:38:05.480 hit this
00:38:05.960 point when we
00:38:06.540 have to start
00:38:06.860 taking the
00:38:07.220 Americans out
00:38:07.800 and that's
00:38:08.180 why it was
00:38:08.600 such a close
00:38:09.000 call but we
00:38:09.480 knew it was
00:38:09.760 coming for
00:38:10.100 months
00:38:10.420 right and
00:38:11.180 we were
00:38:11.800 evacuating
00:38:12.780 those who
00:38:13.720 helped us
00:38:14.780 yeah
00:38:15.060 we didn't
00:38:16.620 if we
00:38:17.260 aren't
00:38:17.720 evacuating the
00:38:18.620 people who
00:38:19.140 helped us
00:38:20.000 that was
00:38:20.540 our complaint
00:38:21.020 two weeks
00:38:21.540 ago
00:38:21.840 now we're
00:38:23.020 going to be
00:38:23.340 lucky to
00:38:23.800 get the
00:38:24.280 Americans out
00:38:25.120 we had to
00:38:26.440 send troops
00:38:27.360 in to
00:38:28.060 evacuate our
00:38:29.400 own people
00:38:30.140 yeah but only
00:38:30.780 5,000
00:38:31.420 which it
00:38:32.680 continues to
00:38:33.220 escalate
00:38:33.860 we're going to
00:38:35.440 have about
00:38:35.700 100,000 troops
00:38:36.680 on the airport
00:38:37.200 by next week
00:38:37.980 I think I
00:38:38.360 think the
00:38:38.680 the newest
00:38:39.540 figures are
00:38:40.280 6,000 to
00:38:41.280 secure that
00:38:41.780 airport
00:38:42.160 which again
00:38:43.260 was more than
00:38:44.020 double what we
00:38:44.660 had when we
00:38:45.600 said we were
00:38:45.920 going to get
00:38:46.180 them out
00:38:46.500 we had around
00:38:47.160 3,500

00:40:51.520 didn't stay
00:40:51.940 in Afghanistan
00:40:52.640 that much
00:40:53.320 we definitely
00:40:54.000 know

00:42:17.420 and

00:42:19.440 this
00:42:21.460 is
00:42:22.900 the
00:42:24.200 Glenn
00:42:24.520 Beck
00:42:24.780 program
00:42:25.440 hello
00:42:26.280 America
00:42:26.620 let's say
00:42:27.620 that we
00:42:28.760 wanted to
00:42:29.360 destroy
00:42:29.820 America
00:42:30.400 okay
00:42:31.280 and we
00:42:32.720 all got
00:42:33.160 together
00:42:33.560 and we
00:42:34.200 said okay
00:42:34.900 we only
00:42:36.020 have a
00:42:36.480 couple of
00:42:36.940 days to
00:42:37.440 come up
00:42:37.780 with a
00:42:38.000 plan
00:42:38.380 do you
00:42:39.940 think
00:42:40.460 if we
00:42:41.420 set out
00:42:42.580 with the
00:42:43.400 intent
00:42:43.940 to destroy
00:42:45.300 America
00:42:45.900 America
00:42:46.040 we could
00:42:47.520 come up
00:42:48.080 with a
00:42:48.440 better
00:42:48.740 plan
00:42:49.240 than this
00:42:49.840 administration
00:42:50.560 is executing
00:42:51.720 right now
00:42:52.440 I don't
00:42:53.620 think so
00:42:54.120 I think
00:42:54.880 we could
00:42:55.200 say
00:42:55.440 we've got
00:42:56.120 10 years
00:42:56.980 to figure
00:42:57.500 out how
00:42:57.940 to destroy
00:42:58.480 America
00:42:58.980 and we
00:43:00.020 still
00:43:00.600 couldn't
00:43:01.580 come up
00:43:02.180 with a
00:43:02.640 better
00:43:02.940 plan
00:43:03.540 than the
00:43:04.360 one that

00:43:53.680 you
00:43:53.900 we use
00:43:54.660 one of

00:44:00.980 do this
00:44:01.420 you're
00:44:01.620 not
00:44:01.860 in the
00:44:02.320 house
00:44:02.660 we're
00:44:02.940 only

00:44:03.560 you
00:44:03.760 pictures
00:44:04.100 of the
00:44:04.560 house
00:44:04.820 this
00:44:05.900 interior
00:44:06.300 designer
00:44:06.860 because
00:44:07.920 I'm
00:44:08.180 I'm
00:44:08.620 kind
00:44:09.160 of
00:44:09.460 I'm
00:44:10.520 artsy
00:44:10.980 fartsy
00:44:11.520 and yes
00:44:12.460 I do
00:44:13.360 have an
00:44:13.820 opinion
00:44:14.180 or two
00:44:14.680 on what
00:44:15.260 the house
00:44:15.640 should look
00:44:16.060 like
00:44:16.400 and what
00:44:16.800 the shades
00:44:17.440 and shutters
00:44:18.300 and everything
00:44:18.780 else in the
00:44:19.340 house should
00:44:19.700 look like
00:44:20.200 and so I
00:44:20.940 make myself
00:44:21.860 very clear
00:44:22.620 and I
00:44:23.720 said to
00:44:24.340 my wife
00:44:25.000 she doesn't
00:44:26.740 she said
00:44:28.400 she's sending
00:44:28.860 us fabric
00:44:29.460 she's
00:44:30.560 she's sending
00:44:31.340 us the wrong
00:44:31.840 fabric
00:44:32.220 I mean I
00:44:32.620 looked at it
00:44:33.100 it's not
00:44:33.520 going to be
00:44:33.840 right
00:44:34.160 and my
00:44:35.300 wife said
00:44:35.640 well why
00:44:35.920 don't we
00:44:36.120 wait
00:44:36.340 just to
00:44:36.860 see it
00:44:37.180 okay
00:44:37.580 well
00:44:37.920 wait
00:44:38.340 but we're
00:44:38.880 wasting
00:44:39.180 time
00:44:39.520 because it's
00:44:39.800 not going
00:44:40.080 to be
00:44:40.220 right
00:44:40.420 we should
00:44:40.660 get her
00:44:40.860 back on
00:44:41.220 the phone
00:44:41.580 and have
00:44:41.940 her
00:44:42.060 it was
00:44:43.220 perfect
00:44:44.040 I mean I
00:44:44.940 have no
00:44:45.460 idea how

00:45:11.520 Robert
00:45:11.840 Gates
00:45:12.320 was

00:45:14.040 Obama's
00:45:14.620 defense
00:45:15.140 secretary
00:45:15.840 quote
00:45:17.920 Joe Biden
00:45:19.980 has been
00:45:20.760 wrong on
00:45:21.540 nearly every
00:45:22.680 major foreign
00:45:23.740 policy and
00:45:24.520 national security
00:45:25.320 issue over
00:45:26.180 the past
00:45:26.860 four decades
00:45:28.040 not a joke
00:45:29.320 not a joke
00:45:31.200 I'm not
00:45:33.260 fooling around
00:45:33.980 folks
00:45:34.560 he actually
00:45:36.540 said that
00:45:37.440 he's been
00:45:38.960 wrong on
00:45:39.420 nearly every
00:45:40.000 foreign major
00:45:40.540 policy and
00:45:41.140 national security
00:45:41.860 issue over
00:45:42.500 the past
00:45:43.100 four decades
00:45:44.400 Biden
00:45:45.420 opposed the
00:45:46.520 Persian Gulf
00:45:47.220 war
00:45:47.620 he later
00:45:48.760 reversed the
00:45:49.400 decision
00:45:49.800 saying George
00:45:50.960 H.W.
00:45:51.700 Bush should
00:45:52.100 have gone
00:45:52.360 all the way
00:45:52.920 to Baghdad
00:45:53.660 so first
00:45:55.260 he was like
00:45:55.720 we shouldn't
00:45:56.400 be fighting
00:45:56.920 and then
00:45:57.680 when we
00:45:58.560 didn't go
00:45:59.000 to Baghdad
00:45:59.580 he's like
00:45:59.920 we should
00:46:00.720 have given
00:46:01.580 them hell
00:46:02.100 all the way
00:46:02.700 to Baghdad
00:46:03.840 he supported
00:46:05.940 the Iraq
00:46:06.580 war before
00:46:07.980 opposing the
00:46:09.700 Iraq war
00:46:11.000 and then he
00:46:12.660 also wanted
00:46:13.300 to partition
00:46:14.140 Iraq into
00:46:15.180 three countries
00:46:16.360 I remember
00:46:16.880 that that was
00:46:17.300 part of his
00:46:17.660 2008 campaign
00:46:19.180 that was his
00:46:20.320 big foreign
00:46:20.920 policy plank
00:46:21.760 he was going
00:46:22.060 to divide it
00:46:22.580 into three
00:46:22.960 countries
00:46:23.360 was he going
00:46:24.260 to build a
00:46:24.600 wall
00:46:24.820 I doubt
00:46:26.000 it
00:46:26.220 as vice
00:46:28.840 president
00:46:29.300 he opposed
00:46:31.080 the raid
00:46:32.280 that killed
00:46:33.100 Osama bin
00:46:33.980 Laden
00:46:34.340 remember
00:46:36.580 it was the
00:46:37.860 hardest decision
00:46:38.920 president
00:46:39.560 has made
00:46:41.080 in over
00:46:42.040 250 years
00:46:43.320 500 years
00:46:44.160 500 years
00:46:45.020 well you know
00:46:45.840 what we've only
00:46:46.540 had a president
00:46:47.320 for about
00:46:48.320 what
00:46:49.000 240
00:46:50.320 some
00:46:51.180 I'm just
00:46:53.380 pointing out
00:46:54.120 I hadn't been
00:46:54.720 a president
00:46:55.260 in 500 years
00:46:56.340 but it was
00:46:57.580 the toughest
00:46:58.140 decision
00:46:58.800 and he
00:46:59.980 his decision
00:47:01.080 was don't
00:47:02.100 kill Osama
00:47:02.880 bin Laden
00:47:03.360 don't do it
00:47:04.120 which brings
00:47:05.640 us now
00:47:06.260 to Afghanistan
00:47:07.560 it was about
00:47:09.320 a month ago
00:47:10.120 cut one
00:47:11.460 when
00:47:12.660 Biden
00:47:13.640 said this
00:47:15.580 is a Taliban
00:47:16.640 takeover
00:47:17.560 of Afghanistan
00:47:18.420 now inevitable
00:47:19.440 no
00:47:20.120 it is not
00:47:21.660 because
00:47:23.220 you have
00:47:24.060 the Afghan
00:47:24.580 troops
00:47:24.960 have
00:47:25.140 300,000
00:47:26.980 well equipped
00:47:29.260 as well
00:47:29.680 as equipped
00:47:29.960 as any
00:47:30.420 army
00:47:30.840 in the world
00:47:31.760 and an
00:47:32.820 air force
00:47:33.420 against
00:47:34.560 something like
00:47:35.280 75,000
00:47:36.760 Taliban
00:47:37.360 it is not
00:47:39.040 inevitable
00:47:39.480 your own
00:47:40.040 intelligence
00:47:40.560 community
00:47:41.220 has assessed
00:47:41.880 that the
00:47:42.260 Afghan government
00:47:43.120 will likely
00:47:44.160 collapse
00:47:44.900 that is not
00:47:45.480 true
00:47:45.880 can you
00:47:47.080 please clarify
00:47:47.680 what they
00:47:48.120 have told
00:47:48.520 you about
00:47:48.960 whether
00:47:49.280 that will
00:47:50.000 happen
00:47:50.300 or not
00:47:50.760 that is
00:47:51.280 not true
00:47:51.800 they did
00:47:52.940 not
00:47:53.160 reach that
00:47:54.600 conclusion
00:47:55.080 what is
00:47:56.480 the level
00:47:57.260 of confidence
00:47:58.100 that they
00:47:58.460 have that
00:47:58.880 it will
00:47:59.320 not collapse
00:48:00.360 the Afghan
00:48:01.660 government
00:48:02.620 and leadership
00:48:04.340 has to come
00:48:05.000 together
00:48:05.420 they clearly
00:48:07.340 have the
00:48:07.940 capacity
00:48:08.440 to sustain
00:48:10.520 the government
00:48:11.380 in place
00:48:12.260 the question
00:48:13.660 is
00:48:14.180 will they
00:48:14.720 generate
00:48:16.200 the kind
00:48:16.720 of cohesion
00:48:17.260 to do it
00:48:18.000 okay but
00:48:18.520 they're gonna
00:48:18.920 do it
00:48:19.380 because they're
00:48:19.940 well equipped
00:48:20.580 they can
00:48:21.340 do it
00:48:21.720 they're gonna
00:48:22.220 do it
00:48:22.700 I'm telling
00:48:23.200 you right
00:48:23.640 now it's
00:48:24.220 gonna be
00:48:24.640 fine
00:48:25.220 it was a
00:48:25.660 very difficult
00:48:26.360 decision
00:48:26.900 the probably
00:48:28.060 the hardest
00:48:29.640 decision
00:48:30.360 in the last
00:48:32.140 750 years
00:48:34.120 that any
00:48:34.900 president
00:48:35.360 has had
00:48:36.260 to make
00:48:36.740 but they
00:48:38.920 have the
00:48:39.560 ability
00:48:40.060 to do it
00:48:40.780 the question
00:48:41.600 is will
00:48:42.280 they
00:48:42.580 now
00:48:43.000 this weekend
00:48:44.700 of course he
00:48:45.160 hasn't had a
00:48:45.780 press conference
00:48:46.400 he's nowhere
00:48:47.060 to be found
00:48:47.740 which is
00:48:48.800 weird
00:48:49.100 I think
00:48:50.680 he's finding
00:48:51.340 himself
00:48:52.060 you know
00:48:52.960 do we have
00:48:53.540 a president
00:48:53.920 right now
00:48:54.580 is there one
00:48:55.600 around do we
00:48:56.320 have one
00:48:56.800 he's so bad
00:48:58.180 at this I don't
00:48:58.840 know that I
00:48:59.180 want him around
00:49:00.020 talking more
00:49:00.860 but he's
00:49:01.280 finding himself
00:49:02.080 he's walking
00:49:02.680 around right now
00:49:03.340 going who am I
00:49:04.580 where am I
00:49:05.660 where am I
00:49:08.160 there's someone
00:49:08.660 in the building
00:49:09.320 that's a mirror
00:49:10.020 sir
00:49:10.400 oh I just
00:49:13.860 gonna get my
00:49:14.440 shotgun and
00:49:15.300 just fire a
00:49:16.080 couple of
00:49:16.420 rounds through
00:49:17.060 the door
00:49:17.600 anyway
00:49:19.280 he is
00:49:21.260 he was
00:49:21.800 saying that
00:49:22.340 they the
00:49:22.980 question is
00:49:23.720 will they
00:49:24.420 do it
00:49:24.900 well
00:49:26.020 we don't
00:49:27.100 want to
00:49:27.340 blame the
00:49:27.820 Afghanis
00:49:28.700 so
00:49:29.260 who does
00:49:31.420 the secretary
00:49:31.940 of state
00:49:33.000 Blinken
00:49:33.960 blame for
00:49:35.720 what's happening
00:49:36.380 now in
00:49:36.800 Afghanistan
00:49:37.420 cut nine
00:49:39.520 does President
00:49:40.660 Biden not
00:49:41.220 bear the
00:49:41.980 blame for
00:49:43.120 this disastrous
00:49:44.140 exit from
00:49:45.660 Afghanistan
00:49:46.340 how dare you
00:49:46.960 Jake we've
00:49:48.140 seen two
00:49:48.460 things first
00:49:49.080 we've known
00:49:50.660 all along
00:49:51.200 we've said
00:49:51.820 all along
00:49:52.180 including the
00:49:52.680 president that
00:49:53.760 the Taliban
00:49:54.260 was at its
00:49:54.980 greatest position
00:49:55.740 of strength
00:49:56.200 at any time
00:49:57.820 since 2001
00:49:58.720 when it was
00:49:59.180 last in charge
00:49:59.940 of the country
00:50:00.400 that is the
00:50:01.320 Taliban that
00:50:02.420 we inherited
00:50:02.900 and so we
00:50:04.000 saw we
00:50:04.320 inherited
00:50:04.760 very much
00:50:05.120 capable of
00:50:06.200 going on the
00:50:06.680 offensive and
00:50:08.040 beginning to
00:50:08.960 take
00:50:09.240 back the
00:50:10.060 country
00:50:10.320 but at
00:50:11.400 the same
00:50:11.700 time we
00:50:12.560 had invested
00:50:13.040 over four
00:50:13.800 administrations
00:50:14.580 billions of
00:50:16.120 dollars along
00:50:17.020 with the
00:50:17.220 international
00:50:17.520 community in
00:50:18.120 the Afghan
00:50:18.500 security and
00:50:19.420 defense forces
00:50:20.080 building a
00:50:21.400 modern military
00:50:22.040 with the most
00:50:22.980 sophisticated
00:50:23.360 equipment
00:50:23.840 300,000
00:50:24.960 forces strong
00:50:25.680 with an air
00:50:26.520 force the
00:50:26.980 Taliban didn't
00:50:27.560 have and the
00:50:28.600 fact of the
00:50:28.980 matter is we've
00:50:29.840 seen that that
00:50:30.300 force has been
00:50:31.240 unable to defend
00:50:32.340 the country and
00:50:32.880 that has happened
00:50:33.520 more quickly than
00:50:34.500 we anticipated
00:50:34.980 so they
00:50:37.960 inherited this
00:50:39.300 problem they
00:50:40.440 inherited it
00:50:41.640 which is weird
00:50:43.300 because in
00:50:44.400 July cut to
00:50:46.240 Joe Biden
00:50:46.900 said this
00:50:47.800 I made a
00:50:50.380 commitment that
00:50:51.820 when I made a
00:50:52.580 mistake I tell
00:50:53.460 you I've made
00:50:54.660 mistakes and
00:50:56.040 when I think I
00:50:56.500 got it right I'll
00:50:57.240 say it I'll take
00:50:58.600 responsibility for
00:50:59.760 what I do and
00:51:00.360 say take
00:51:00.860 responsibility
00:51:01.960 somehow or
00:51:03.640 another I
00:51:04.920 don't think
00:51:06.300 he's going to
00:51:07.240 take responsibility
00:51:08.280 of this now
00:51:10.180 so you know
00:51:11.300 some people
00:51:12.240 might be
00:51:12.760 thinking they
00:51:14.200 just let the
00:51:15.220 prisons wide
00:51:16.540 open the
00:51:17.660 Taliban has a
00:51:19.100 problem with
00:51:19.780 America al-qaeda
00:51:22.200 is back to
00:51:24.560 the labs kids
00:51:25.820 they've released
00:51:27.440 all of these
00:51:28.080 bad guys and
00:51:29.300 they're coming
00:51:29.900 after us
00:51:30.780 September 11th
00:51:32.980 September 11th
00:51:34.080 the 20th
00:51:35.240 anniversary of
00:51:36.060 September 11th
00:51:36.840 is right around
00:51:37.660 the corner but
00:51:38.740 don't worry kids
00:51:39.820 DHS is on the
00:51:42.700 case cut 19
00:51:44.500 Department of
00:51:45.220 Homeland Security
00:51:45.960 a new terror
00:51:47.820 alert has been
00:51:48.400 issued by
00:51:48.800 Homeland Security
00:51:49.900 tonight Pete
00:51:50.720 Williams is here
00:51:51.740 Pete what do we
00:51:52.380 know about this
00:51:53.080 well DHS says
00:51:54.520 this new terrorism
00:51:55.340 advisory is not
00:51:56.260 based on any
00:51:56.880 actual threats or
00:51:57.820 plots but it
00:51:58.560 says there's a
00:51:59.140 rise in
00:51:59.700 anti-government
00:52:00.440 rhetoric some
00:52:01.240 of it is
00:52:01.740 opposition to
00:52:02.460 covid public
00:52:03.120 health rules like
00:52:03.940 mask and vaccine
00:52:04.980 measures some
00:52:06.120 calls for violent
00:52:06.880 action are based
00:52:07.620 on claims of
00:52:08.360 election fraud or
00:52:09.260 a belief that
00:52:09.820 Donald Trump can
00:52:10.520 be reinstated and
00:52:12.220 DHS says the
00:52:13.120 coming 20th
00:52:13.920 anniversary of the
00:52:14.660 9-11 attacks and
00:52:15.760 religious holidays
00:52:16.600 later this year
00:52:17.400 could be catalysts
00:52:18.600 for violence the
00:52:19.640 last terror
00:52:20.440 advisory was issued
00:52:21.360 in May
00:52:21.920 stop just a
00:52:22.780 second so I
00:52:23.940 want to make sure
00:52:24.480 I have this right
00:52:25.080 people who are
00:52:26.220 angry about masks
00:52:27.320 and covid's are a
00:52:28.860 terror threat this
00:52:29.760 last one expired
00:52:30.960 over the weekend
00:52:31.920 the last terror
00:52:32.640 threat you know
00:52:33.280 January 6th we
00:52:34.540 were worried about
00:52:35.060 those guys that
00:52:36.860 one just expired
00:52:37.660 but they replaced
00:52:38.980 it immediately with
00:52:40.400 a new one that
00:52:41.920 people are angry
00:52:43.100 about masks and
00:52:44.740 vaccinations and
00:52:46.800 the domestic terror
00:52:48.040 threat we don't have
00:52:49.240 any information on
00:52:50.200 anything but we
00:52:51.800 think that could
00:52:52.440 happen and of course
00:52:53.840 selection fraud
00:52:55.180 people are still
00:52:56.300 upset about that
00:52:57.340 can you believe
00:52:58.020 those crazy people
00:52:59.300 they're just bad
00:53:00.820 people they're
00:53:01.420 killing your
00:53:01.980 grandmother you
00:53:02.620 know they're just
00:53:03.780 so such horrible
00:53:05.160 people we have to
00:53:06.040 silence them some
00:53:07.640 way or another but
00:53:08.840 they're for some
00:53:10.400 unknown reason angry
00:53:11.780 and they might do
00:53:14.980 something and of
00:53:16.120 course the 20th
00:53:17.220 anniversary of 9-11
00:53:19.040 and some upcoming
00:53:20.840 religious holidays
00:53:22.300 oh religious holidays
00:53:24.060 oh maybe he's
00:53:26.640 talking about
00:53:27.240 Christmas is he
00:53:29.020 is that the
00:53:29.700 religious holiday
00:53:30.480 we're worried
00:53:31.060 about Christmas
00:53:32.540 religious holidays
00:53:35.160 hmm so don't
00:53:38.700 worry because our
00:53:40.880 government and DHS
00:53:43.140 is on it by the
00:53:44.480 way West Point
00:53:45.820 is now teaching
00:53:47.140 Marxism West Point
00:53:50.280 is now teaching
00:53:52.160 Marxism and
00:53:54.020 CRT so if you
00:53:56.560 want your kids
00:53:57.760 to you know be
00:53:59.060 able to be in the
00:53:59.920 strongest army
00:54:01.600 ever you send
00:54:02.940 them to West Point
00:54:03.760 because they'll
00:54:04.720 learn about social
00:54:05.720 inequality another
00:54:07.680 class is on
00:54:08.740 military leadership
00:54:09.840 leading inclusive
00:54:11.680 teams and the
00:54:13.880 politics of race
00:54:14.980 gender sexuality
00:54:16.060 equality and
00:54:17.140 diversity
00:54:17.760 now why
00:54:20.800 why would our
00:54:22.440 Pentagon be
00:54:23.560 making stupid
00:54:24.720 moves like they're
00:54:26.400 making in Afghanistan
00:54:27.620 I can't imagine
00:54:29.160 but let's focus on
00:54:30.860 the successes
00:54:31.640 right now consumer
00:54:33.720 sentiment plunged to
00:54:35.120 its lowest level
00:54:36.640 since 2011
00:54:38.460 amid fears that the
00:54:40.380 Delta variant will
00:54:41.360 add to the negative
00:54:42.400 economic effects of
00:54:44.380 COVID-19 the
00:54:46.140 University of
00:54:46.900 Michigan index of
00:54:48.020 consumer sentiment
00:54:49.020 plummeted to 70.2 in
00:54:52.120 early August from
00:54:53.360 its level of 81.2 in
00:54:56.400 July this according to
00:54:58.440 an update that has
00:54:59.300 just been released the
00:55:00.760 drop represents a 13
00:55:02.420 and a half percent
00:55:03.240 decline and was way
00:55:04.880 off from consensus
00:55:06.380 expectations from
00:55:08.600 experts in fact even
00:55:12.180 during the height of
00:55:13.460 the pandemic in
00:55:14.600 spring of 2020
00:55:15.840 consumer confidence
00:55:17.800 was not this
00:55:19.760 low
00:55:20.560 but don't worry
00:55:23.660 we've got everything
00:55:25.420 under control
00:55:26.140 yeah there's a little
00:55:27.740 inflation
00:55:28.460 I mean energy
00:55:29.880 is only up
00:55:31.640 41 percent
00:55:34.420 year over year
00:55:35.620 but that's just
00:55:37.020 transitory
00:55:37.760 don't worry about it
00:55:38.940 you know
00:55:39.660 so is your money
00:55:40.860 you know
00:55:41.800 it's transitory
00:55:42.880 it's not going to
00:55:43.500 be around forever
00:55:44.440 by the way
00:55:45.600 an update in
00:55:46.800 Joe Biden's
00:55:47.480 America today
00:55:48.380 inmate freed
00:55:49.400 under COVID
00:55:50.080 release
00:55:50.600 has now been
00:55:51.940 charged with
00:55:52.660 committing murder
00:55:53.580 after being let
00:55:54.780 out
00:55:55.160 not sure if that
00:55:57.080 counts as a
00:55:58.080 COVID death
00:55:58.980 but I'm guessing
00:56:00.840 it probably
00:56:01.880 will
00:56:02.760 good news
00:56:04.360 for the American
00:56:05.040 people
00:56:05.540 Biden administration
00:56:06.660 has prompted
00:56:07.780 the largest
00:56:09.780 permanent
00:56:10.460 increase
00:56:11.540 in food
00:56:12.460 stamps
00:56:13.040 yes that's
00:56:14.280 right
00:56:14.600 because we
00:56:15.720 care
00:56:16.220 about people
00:56:17.680 the Biden
00:56:18.660 administration
00:56:19.140 has revised
00:56:19.920 the nutrition
00:56:20.680 standards
00:56:21.340 of the food
00:56:22.320 stamp program
00:56:23.100 and has prompted
00:56:24.320 now the largest
00:56:25.160 permanent increase
00:56:26.280 to benefits
00:56:26.980 in the program's
00:56:28.220 history
00:56:28.520 let me say that
00:56:29.380 again
00:56:29.740 the largest
00:56:30.700 permanent increase
00:56:31.900 permanent increase
00:56:33.340 to benefits
00:56:34.060 in the program's
00:56:35.160 history
00:56:36.240 now they did
00:56:37.880 this because
00:56:38.640 they looked at
00:56:39.980 those nutrition
00:56:40.680 standards and said
00:56:41.740 you know I don't
00:56:42.880 think there's enough
00:56:43.960 nutrition going
00:56:44.960 into these food
00:56:45.780 stamp programs
00:56:46.740 we this is not
00:56:48.480 enough to be able
00:56:49.400 to have the
00:56:50.500 right nutrition
00:56:51.580 and so they
00:56:53.480 just changed the
00:56:54.240 standards they
00:56:54.780 didn't mean to
00:56:55.580 raise the prices
00:56:56.420 and give people
00:56:57.080 more money
00:56:57.640 they didn't want
00:56:58.680 to do it
00:56:59.180 they fought
00:56:59.960 against it
00:57:00.620 I'm sure
00:57:01.360 but now it's
00:57:03.200 a permanent
00:57:03.900 increase
00:57:04.900 the largest
00:57:06.040 permanent
00:57:06.900 increase
00:57:08.320 of course
00:57:09.140 Cuba
00:57:09.660 pay no attention
00:57:10.740 to those people
00:57:11.440 that are still
00:57:11.980 struggling for
00:57:12.620 their freedom
00:57:13.780 Hunter Biden's
00:57:15.480 prostitution video
00:57:17.100 don't worry
00:57:18.240 US intelligence
00:57:19.360 isn't doing
00:57:20.160 anything
00:57:20.480 but they're
00:57:21.120 but that's
00:57:22.140 because they're
00:57:22.760 concentrating
00:57:23.420 on the upcoming
00:57:25.080 religious
00:57:26.520 holidays
00:57:27.400 you never
00:57:29.600 know
00:57:30.040 what holidays
00:57:31.460 those might
00:57:32.080 be
00:57:32.480 but
00:57:33.960 it could

01:00:07.760 seen you like
01:00:08.440 this I've seen
01:00:09.820 you upset about
01:00:11.740 things I've seen
01:00:13.580 you uncover
01:00:15.140 things and you
01:00:15.920 come into my
01:00:16.400 office you're like
01:00:17.000 you are not going
01:00:18.220 to believe it but
01:00:19.620 I've never seen
01:00:20.700 you this
01:00:21.380 personally
01:00:22.340 affected by
01:00:25.440 something in the
01:00:26.420 news and I
01:00:27.320 thought about you
01:00:28.180 and the
01:00:29.800 200 I believe
01:00:31.080 it's 200
01:00:31.720 400
01:00:32.440 2,446
01:00:35.000 people that
01:00:35.600 died and
01:00:37.180 20,666
01:00:40.240 that were
01:00:40.660 injured in
01:00:42.120 Afghanistan
01:00:42.780 and how they
01:00:44.480 must be feeling
01:00:45.260 today
01:00:45.800 those those
01:00:47.020 numbers have
01:00:48.340 pissed me off for
01:00:49.120 a long time in
01:00:50.000 Afghanistan and
01:00:51.000 what my hope was
01:00:52.080 is that they would
01:00:52.620 never just become
01:00:53.420 numbers and
01:00:54.060 statistics that it
01:00:55.780 would have been for
01:00:56.520 something and
01:00:57.960 overnight literally
01:01:00.380 well I guess it
01:01:01.580 was two days
01:01:02.240 that was about it
01:01:03.420 48 hours and it
01:01:05.300 was reduced to
01:01:06.280 nothing I've
01:01:08.000 never felt that
01:01:08.920 big of a gut
01:01:09.520 punch I think in
01:01:10.300 my life really
01:01:11.280 all of that
01:01:12.260 it's it's almost
01:01:14.560 like this party is
01:01:15.300 the party of chaos
01:01:16.120 it really is we're
01:01:17.260 seeing it at home
01:01:17.860 we're seeing it
01:01:18.380 abroad the
01:01:19.440 secretary blink in
01:01:20.320 that clip you
01:01:20.860 played earlier
01:01:21.480 where he was like
01:01:22.480 we inherited this
01:01:23.500 really did you
01:01:24.240 inherit it for the
01:01:24.980 eight years you
01:01:25.700 were in power
01:01:26.300 still pursuing
01:01:27.240 similar things
01:01:28.280 we saw it in
01:01:29.220 Iraq Obama and
01:01:31.020 secretary blink was
01:01:31.740 a part of that
01:01:32.360 apparatus pulled
01:01:33.740 troops out too
01:01:34.360 early with no
01:01:35.140 real plan screw
01:01:36.280 it they wanted a
01:01:36.860 political statement
01:01:37.320 whatever ISIS is
01:01:38.620 born runs rampant
01:01:39.680 across the country
01:01:40.260 the caliphate
01:01:40.840 we're seeing it
01:01:41.840 now you're seeing
01:01:42.520 the beginning of
01:01:43.040 another caliphate
01:01:43.740 Sharia law is
01:01:44.760 coming to
01:01:45.140 Afghanistan no
01:01:46.180 it's coming they
01:01:47.040 said they're not
01:01:47.640 gonna do that oh
01:01:48.780 yeah provide goods
01:01:49.760 and services like the
01:01:50.760 New York Times those
01:01:51.240 goods and services
01:01:51.900 are sure someone
01:01:53.340 steals some bread
01:01:54.000 from your shop
01:01:54.620 we'll be there to
01:01:55.500 service that guy's
01:01:56.380 hand right off we
01:01:57.360 tried we tried we
01:01:58.820 tried everything we
01:01:59.720 could and the only
01:02:00.440 thing that worked was
01:02:01.320 cutting people's
01:02:02.020 hands off we
01:02:03.200 tried we didn't
01:02:03.920 want to
01:02:04.520 that mayor that
01:02:08.580 you were talking
01:02:09.060 about that was you
01:02:09.880 know that seemed
01:02:10.300 like the New York
01:02:10.680 Times was just
01:02:11.340 propping up and
01:02:12.180 was such a great
01:02:13.000 guy well the New
01:02:14.220 York Times did
01:02:15.300 find the best soft
01:02:16.560 spots of Stalin in
01:02:17.780 the day too so you
01:02:18.860 can understand
01:02:19.520 that's true well
01:02:20.620 you know the
01:02:21.380 government officials
01:02:22.040 know exactly what's
01:02:22.700 going to happen
01:02:23.060 the Afghanistan
01:02:23.500 president he knew
01:02:24.820 exactly what was
01:02:25.440 going to happen he
01:02:25.880 took off because
01:02:26.580 one week before
01:02:27.360 September 11th the
01:02:28.720 leader of the
01:02:29.140 opposition in
01:02:30.060 Afghanistan at the
01:02:31.240 time was assassinated
01:02:32.420 that was seven days
01:02:33.620 about right before
01:02:34.840 9-11 yeah all
01:02:37.300 opposition will be
01:02:38.020 crushed and Sharia
01:02:39.360 law is coming as
01:02:40.240 far the only question
01:02:41.060 now is how big the
01:02:41.760 caliphate will get

01:05:05.180 hi Glenn
01:05:07.240 hi
01:05:07.700 hi so I'm an Air
01:05:10.460 Force veteran I
01:05:11.280 served in Kandahar
01:05:12.180 Air Base during the
01:05:13.300 Barack Obama years
01:05:14.340 and I agree with
01:05:15.000 Jason 100%
01:05:16.480 what we did over
01:05:17.760 there you know
01:05:19.320 first of all we were
01:05:20.340 working our tails off
01:05:21.340 we're trying to rebuild
01:05:22.460 and the Taliban would
01:05:23.740 come in and destroy
01:05:24.480 everything that we
01:05:25.180 tried to build and
01:05:26.140 the Obama administration
01:05:27.740 had a complete
01:05:29.000 disregard just a
01:05:30.400 complete disregard
01:05:31.120 for everything that we
01:05:32.400 tried to do they
01:05:33.960 and now the Joe
01:05:34.960 Biden administration
01:05:35.680 is doing the same
01:05:36.280 thing it's just
01:05:36.980 unbelievable it's
01:05:38.060 heartbreaking I cry
01:05:39.940 for our men and
01:05:41.240 women over there I
01:05:42.240 saw the coffins
01:05:43.980 draped in our
01:05:44.800 flags coming home
01:05:46.180 it was something
01:05:48.180 that I will never
01:05:48.880 forget and I'm
01:05:50.180 just I'm just
01:05:51.200 torn up about this
01:05:52.020 as a veteran as a
01:05:53.540 person who served
01:05:54.160 in Afghanistan
01:05:54.700 well I'm I'm I'm
01:05:57.520 sorry to to hear
01:05:59.560 that do you think
01:06:01.880 it would have been
01:06:02.460 the same they're
01:06:04.740 blaming it on
01:06:05.720 inheritance or is
01:06:07.980 this Joe Biden
01:06:08.900 no this is this
01:06:11.280 is definitely the
01:06:12.040 administration you
01:06:13.160 know what Donald
01:06:14.320 Trump tried to do
01:06:15.340 was the right thing
01:06:16.320 he knew he knew
01:06:17.760 that we needed to
01:06:18.500 leave there and
01:06:19.540 even though I'm I'm
01:06:20.640 a fan of Dan
01:06:21.340 Crenshaw I don't
01:06:22.140 agree with us having
01:06:23.440 to stay over there
01:06:24.240 I don't agree with
01:06:25.060 it we're just we're
01:06:26.120 wasting resources we're
01:06:27.300 wasting human life
01:06:28.340 there it's been how
01:06:29.880 long now and they
01:06:30.920 still have not figured
01:06:32.000 it out we go to
01:06:33.180 basic training for six
01:06:34.340 weeks eight weeks
01:06:35.160 12 weeks whatever it

01:06:39.800 become soldiers we
01:06:40.740 become airmen we
01:06:41.620 become sailors and
01:06:43.380 yet they with all the
01:06:45.040 training and all the
01:06:46.380 equipment and all the
01:06:47.400 resources that we
01:06:48.160 provide to them they
01:06:48.940 still can't figure it
01:06:49.980 out they don't know
01:06:50.800 how to stand up for
01:06:51.540 themselves and just
01:06:52.280 fight against what
01:06:54.020 they're trying to you
01:06:56.600 know trying to fight
01:06:57.520 against which is which
01:06:58.800 is a which is a
01:07:00.120 tyrannical type

01:07:08.740 words right now

01:07:11.460 Denise thank you for
01:07:12.480 your service thank you
01:07:13.660 for everything you did
01:07:15.020 in Afghanistan and
01:07:17.120 gosh sorry that it is
01:07:20.240 ended this way let me
01:07:21.800 go to Mickey in South
01:07:23.500 Carolina hello Mickey
01:07:25.380 hi Glenn thank you for
01:07:28.940 taking my call yes I
01:07:31.880 want to admit that I
01:07:33.560 made a mistake for
01:07:35.320 voting for Joe Biden
01:07:36.760 oh my god what what
01:07:39.280 was your thought at
01:07:40.620 the time
01:07:41.300 my thought at the
01:07:45.960 time was I'm an
01:07:48.240 animal and wildlife
01:07:50.960 advocate and I was
01:07:54.880 upset with what some
01:07:57.900 of the choices that
01:07:58.800 were being made by the
01:07:59.700 administration regarding
01:08:01.300 the protection of our
01:08:02.700 land and it and that
01:08:05.440 was my thought at the
01:08:06.460 time I thought that
01:08:07.440 that we would get
01:08:08.540 relief from that and
01:08:09.640 get good decisions out
01:08:11.060 of the new
01:08:11.720 administration and
01:08:13.120 then what has turned
01:08:14.240 you to say holy cow
01:08:16.780 oh my gosh the
01:08:19.460 schools everything
01:08:21.400 that I've been hearing
01:08:22.300 regarding what's being
01:08:23.320 implemented in our
01:08:24.460 education system is
01:08:28.540 is heartbreaking my
01:08:32.500 baby sister is a
01:08:33.900 schoolteacher a retired
01:08:35.400 one and it's it's
01:08:38.340 just I I don't have
01:08:40.280 words for it it's
01:08:41.580 unconscionable and how
01:08:44.300 do you feel about
01:08:45.100 Afghanistan today that
01:08:47.720 was the pin that that's
01:08:49.180 that that's my breaking
01:08:50.640 point that's what
01:08:51.880 prompted the call I
01:08:54.120 really so so maybe
01:08:56.340 last week or the week
01:08:57.500 before you wouldn't
01:08:58.580 have called and said
01:08:59.660 you regretted your
01:09:00.600 vote I I wouldn't
01:09:03.120 have however I was
01:09:04.300 seriously thinking
01:09:05.880 about it on a daily
01:09:06.940 basis and then that
01:09:08.420 when I heard that
01:09:09.460 wow when I heard
01:09:12.240 this it just was I
01:09:13.980 yeah I I regret I
01:09:16.280 made a mistake well
01:09:17.540 we all make mistakes
01:09:18.980 that's that's great
01:09:21.300 Mickey we all make
01:09:22.740 mistakes thank you
01:09:24.780 for being brave enough
01:09:25.880 to recognize it and
01:09:28.160 you're welcome
01:09:29.140 thank you thank you
01:09:30.260 for your call 888
01:09:31.500 727 BECK is the is
01:09:36.360 the phone number it's
01:09:38.460 it's quite amazing what
01:09:40.060 is happening in in
01:09:42.200 America right now in
01:09:43.540 it it sure is Glenn
01:09:45.540 yes I look I I
01:09:49.560 understand how people
01:09:50.700 look I we've been
01:09:51.980 critical on the air of
01:09:52.980 of of Trump's handling
01:09:54.580 of the situation as
01:09:55.340 well but it's nothing
01:09:56.620 compared to what we're
01:09:57.280 talking about here I
01:09:58.240 mean the Trump that
01:09:59.060 Trump would it would
01:10:00.880 not happen there's no
01:10:02.540 way there's no way
01:10:04.640 there's no way Donald
01:10:05.640 Trump would have allowed
01:10:06.260 this to happen just
01:10:07.040 because it would have
01:10:08.400 pissed him off too
01:10:09.260 much oh my gosh the
01:10:10.580 fact that if it started
01:10:11.660 to go this way as we
01:10:12.740 were withdrawing he
01:10:13.920 would have changed
01:10:14.720 directions and made
01:10:16.020 sure it did not go
01:10:16.960 this way he might have
01:10:17.980 said I want
01:10:18.720 everybody to grab a
01:10:19.760 parachute your guys
01:10:21.000 are you're parachuting
01:10:22.040 out because I need not
01:10:24.020 refuel I'm gonna load
01:10:25.540 in the sky I'm gonna
01:10:27.180 load bombs into this
01:10:29.820 plane yeah I mean it
01:10:31.860 would have been rapid
01:10:33.380 it wouldn't have
01:10:33.980 happened it wouldn't it
01:10:35.300 would not have happened
01:10:35.900 honestly let's be honest
01:10:37.160 about it there's no way
01:10:38.580 they would have even
01:10:39.160 tried this if he was
01:10:40.500 president they wouldn't
01:10:42.100 have done it now in six
01:10:43.440 months in a year in two
01:10:45.000 years maybe I think
01:10:46.660 there's an excellent
01:10:48.260 chance it would have
01:10:49.120 happened eventually and
01:10:49.940 honestly that was part
01:10:50.680 of the calculus going in
01:10:51.920 look it you negotiated a
01:10:54.160 deal with the Taliban we
01:10:56.460 all know how this is
01:10:57.600 going to turn out and I
01:10:58.380 think people knew
01:10:59.040 eventually they were
01:11:00.140 going to be back in
01:11:00.720 control of this country
01:11:01.640 there's no way it would
01:11:02.980 have happened this way
01:11:03.640 though they would have
01:11:04.900 been terrified of what
01:11:05.960 Donald Trump would have
01:11:06.640 done he may have
01:11:07.540 completely reversed and
01:11:08.420 gone back in with a
01:11:09.540 hundred thousand troops
01:11:10.480 frankly there's no way
01:11:11.900 that the one thing you
01:11:13.620 can always say about
01:11:14.600 Donald Trump is a
01:11:15.820 don't humiliate him
01:11:18.140 don't yeah don't
01:11:18.760 don't humiliate him
01:11:20.420 uh and don't humiliate
01:11:22.700 the United States of
01:11:23.620 America if if you are
01:11:26.240 making him the
01:11:27.560 administration and
01:11:28.540 America look bad
01:11:30.520 he's going to correct
01:11:32.180 that problem yeah
01:11:33.280 and this is a problem
01:11:35.240 too that like they knew
01:11:37.260 about already listen to
01:11:38.420 this listen to this
01:11:39.420 op-ed a group of
01:11:41.200 religious warriors
01:11:41.920 riding on captured
01:11:43.160 American military
01:11:44.540 military vehicles
01:11:45.180 vanquish a US
01:11:46.280 trained military
01:11:47.060 which relinquishes
01:11:47.960 much of his power
01:11:48.820 without a fight
01:11:49.760 sound familiar
01:11:50.720 that's what happened
01:11:51.900 in Iraq as the US
01:11:53.260 withdrawal of troops
01:11:54.320 from the country at the
01:11:55.260 end of 2011
01:11:56.040 within three years
01:11:57.400 took three years by the
01:11:58.440 way an army of ISIS
01:12:00.000 fighters was only a few
01:12:01.020 miles away from the
01:12:01.940 gates of Baghdad
01:12:02.760 blah blah blah
01:12:03.780 it was vice president
01:12:05.780 Joe Biden who had
01:12:06.880 negotiated the Obama
01:12:07.940 administration's draw
01:12:08.940 down from Iraq
01:12:09.760 the head the headline
01:12:11.380 is Biden deserves
01:12:12.520 blame for the
01:12:13.180 debacle in Afghanistan
01:12:14.120 the place I'm reading
01:12:15.780 this from is CNN
01:12:17.040 dot com
01:12:17.800 CNN dot com
01:12:20.460 this is so
01:12:23.640 historically
01:12:25.060 catastrophic
01:12:26.160 that even places
01:12:29.020 like CNN
01:12:30.060 are acknowledging
01:12:31.360 how bad it was
01:12:32.760 this is a guy who
01:12:35.100 went through this
01:12:36.080 himself
01:12:37.100 not that he can
01:12:38.180 remember last week
01:12:39.120 but just a few years
01:12:40.800 ago went through
01:12:41.740 this exact process
01:12:42.860 and saw the same
01:12:45.720 damage and like
01:12:46.380 think about this
01:12:47.080 Glenn like we
01:12:48.620 have we went
01:12:49.700 through the Nazarene
01:12:50.720 fund was born
01:12:53.040 your your idea
01:12:56.180 basically on a
01:12:57.400 charity that was
01:12:58.220 going to help
01:12:58.900 rescue people from
01:13:01.020 the results of this
01:13:02.360 guy's last
01:13:03.500 catastrophic foray
01:13:05.540 into international
01:13:07.260 affairs and here
01:13:08.700 we are again now
01:13:09.500 he's the president
01:13:10.360 somehow he got
01:13:11.160 elected on that
01:13:12.120 record and is in
01:13:14.380 office doing the
01:13:15.260 same thing except
01:13:16.220 worse in a place
01:13:17.900 where we were for
01:13:18.620 even longer
01:13:19.160 I put a call in
01:13:21.280 this morning to
01:13:22.620 the head of
01:13:24.740 operations for the
01:13:26.280 Nazarene fund just
01:13:27.760 to ask him because
01:13:28.660 he knows the
01:13:29.800 Middle East he
01:13:30.640 lived in the
01:13:31.180 Middle East
01:13:31.600 forever raised in
01:13:33.540 the Middle East
01:13:34.040 and just to ask
01:13:36.440 him how can we
01:13:38.400 do anything to
01:13:39.060 help the women
01:13:39.660 and children there
01:13:40.500 can we help the
01:13:41.360 women and the
01:13:42.820 little girls that
01:13:43.980 are now being
01:13:45.020 taken by the
01:13:46.660 Taliban can we
01:13:48.620 help them what
01:13:50.000 are we going to do
01:13:50.600 about it because I
01:13:52.380 mean the people
01:13:53.120 that we have left
01:13:54.240 behind with
01:13:56.380 really all you
01:13:57.980 had to do was
01:13:59.240 wait until the
01:14:00.420 winter just don't
01:14:01.900 pull the troops
01:14:02.560 out until
01:14:03.880 January at least
01:14:04.920 would give them
01:14:05.260 some time it
01:14:06.100 would give them
01:14:06.840 six months to
01:14:08.480 get their feet
01:14:09.340 solid yeah and
01:14:11.760 we did nothing we
01:14:12.780 did nothing we did
01:14:13.440 nothing think about
01:14:14.440 Glenn back when
01:14:15.300 Donald Trump is
01:14:16.360 president names
01:14:17.520 Brett Kavanaugh to
01:14:19.660 be Supreme Court
01:14:20.280 justice yeah and
01:14:21.540 women all over the
01:14:23.440 country show up to
01:14:24.800 protest in their red
01:14:26.400 cloaks yeah of the
01:14:27.800 handmaid's tale where
01:14:29.700 are they today what is
01:14:30.640 happening in Afghanistan
01:14:31.620 right now is
01:14:32.440 literally the plot of
01:14:33.680 the handmaid's tale
01:14:34.280 a theocratic regime
01:14:37.100 comes in and takes
01:14:39.300 women who were
01:14:40.080 doctors and puts
01:14:42.000 them into sexual
01:14:43.260 servitude that is the
01:14:45.080 plot of the
01:14:46.100 handmaid's tale Joe
01:14:47.460 Biden is overseeing it
01:14:49.300 happening in a
01:14:50.080 country that we
01:14:50.940 could have done
01:14:51.340 something about it in
01:14:52.240 and you and they
01:14:53.340 don't care no they
01:14:54.480 don't care I don't
01:14:55.200 see anybody out in
01:14:55.840 their cloaks today
01:14:56.540 they don't care this
01:14:59.020 is this is the this
01:15:00.580 is the thing that
01:15:01.540 all Americans need
01:15:03.740 to understand when
01:15:05.420 they talk about
01:15:06.440 global warming they
01:15:08.100 don't mean it they
01:15:10.360 don't mean it you
01:15:11.960 might they don't it's
01:15:14.320 a money-making scheme
01:15:16.220 that's it it's a
01:15:20.360 power grab that's it
01:15:23.080 if you trust these
01:15:24.780 people to actually
01:15:26.500 care about the
01:15:27.440 environment then let
01:15:29.040 me ask you why is
01:15:30.660 Joe Biden's son and
01:15:32.700 him in bed with
01:15:34.500 China they're
01:15:38.740 building coal plants
01:15:40.340 every week they're
01:15:42.680 opening new coal
01:15:43.520 plants what you
01:15:45.800 think they care then
01:15:48.180 why aren't they
01:15:49.200 consistent on the
01:15:50.720 biggest polluter on
01:15:52.420 the planet China
01:15:54.500 you think they care
01:15:58.560 about women then
01:15:59.940 why weren't they all
01:16:01.460 up in arms on
01:16:02.920 Cuomo
01:16:03.480 you think the press
01:16:07.780 actually cares
01:16:09.040 why aren't they all
01:16:10.880 up in arms about
01:16:11.920 Cuomo why aren't they
01:16:13.720 all up in arms about
01:16:15.280 one of the worst
01:16:16.860 abusers and dirt
01:16:19.840 bags and a guy who's
01:16:21.920 getting money from
01:16:23.080 China Hunter Biden
01:16:25.860 why don't they
01:16:28.560 care you imagine
01:16:31.740 if that would have
01:16:32.360 been a Trump kid
01:16:33.340 that they had one
01:16:35.080 lost laptop he's
01:16:37.580 got two lost
01:16:39.760 laptops they don't
01:16:41.920 care all of this is
01:16:45.560 to keep us fighting
01:16:47.180 with each other all
01:16:49.220 of this is to
01:16:50.300 divide us
01:16:51.600 they're not running
01:16:54.420 to the rescue I
01:16:55.520 don't see anyone

01:17:45.420 coordinated the
01:17:47.140 Arab Spring but
01:17:49.140 as soon as the
01:17:49.940 Cuba Spring
01:17:50.760 happened they
01:17:52.120 shut it all down
01:17:53.560 oh I can't do
01:17:54.560 anything we are so
01:17:56.020 helpless and
01:17:56.780 powerful powerless
01:17:58.040 we at Google we
01:17:59.840 don't have the
01:18:00.680 resources to help
01:18:01.780 them get the
01:18:02.420 internet gosh darn
01:18:04.660 it I wish we
01:18:05.480 could hey bird I
01:18:09.420 mean it is crazy
01:18:13.440 the lies and the
01:18:15.820 deceit that the
01:18:17.460 left has have
01:18:18.440 used you think
01:18:19.900 they care about
01:18:21.400 the African
01:18:23.800 American community
01:18:25.080 then why aren't
01:18:27.940 they doing more
01:18:28.660 outreach because
01:18:29.500 the African
01:18:30.060 American community
01:18:30.960 is the least
01:18:32.180 likely to be
01:18:33.240 vaccinated you
01:18:34.980 see because they
01:18:35.600 don't care about
01:18:36.300 vaccinations all
01:18:37.620 they care about
01:18:38.420 is demonizing the
01:18:40.400 Republicans and
01:18:41.980 white Republicans
01:18:43.500 so they can
01:18:44.920 continue to have
01:18:46.160 us fight one
01:18:47.260 another instead of
01:18:48.800 saying look okay
01:18:50.500 we we have a
01:18:51.880 problem over here
01:18:52.800 the African
01:18:53.840 American community
01:18:54.920 doesn't trust the
01:18:56.400 government let's
01:18:58.240 get into that
01:18:58.800 community and all
01:18:59.900 of us help
01:19:00.540 because they don't
01:19:03.860 care they're lying
01:19:05.660 to you and I
01:19:07.680 just don't know
01:19:09.040 what it's going
01:19:10.220 to take I
01:19:11.060 mean you know
01:19:12.140 maybe someday
01:19:13.160 they'll reveal
01:19:13.900 themselves as
01:19:14.980 just an evil
01:19:16.100 union that
01:19:17.540 doesn't actually
01:19:18.540 care about the
01:19:19.480 education of your
01:19:20.480 children I don't
01:19:22.680 know what they
01:19:23.240 could do to
01:19:23.820 convince you of
01:19:24.540 that I mean
01:19:25.500 they'd have to I
01:19:26.620 don't know keep
01:19:28.040 your school closed
01:19:29.300 because they wanted
01:19:30.860 to force your
01:19:31.520 children into
01:19:32.140 vaccines and to
01:19:33.140 wear masks but
01:19:34.840 that's not even
01:19:35.720 when you give them
01:19:36.400 that that's not
01:19:37.360 enough you know
01:19:39.040 they they want
01:19:39.860 to renegotiate
01:19:41.320 their contracts
01:19:42.240 that have to
01:19:43.380 include redistribution
01:19:45.360 of wealth not
01:19:47.200 making it up not
01:19:48.880 a joke it's not a
01:19:50.820 joke folks back
01:19:54.440 in a minute
01:19:54.800 well if you're
01:19:59.680 like most
01:20:00.100 Americans you
01:20:01.260 probably spend a
01:20:02.320 significant amount
01:20:03.040 of your time
01:20:03.460 thinking about how
01:20:04.540 to make more
01:20:05.020 money well there
01:20:07.160 is something you
01:20:07.820 should do first
01:20:08.840 before what other
01:20:10.120 job can I get
01:20:11.200 what else can I
01:20:12.080 do to make more
01:20:12.980 money that is how
01:20:15.120 can I save more
01:20:16.640 money it's good to
01:20:19.140 be aware about how
01:20:20.200 your financial house
01:20:21.260 is holding up and
01:20:22.760 to be sure the
01:20:23.760 business of trying
01:20:25.000 to make it more
01:20:26.360 secure there is
01:20:29.540 something really
01:20:30.560 good about that
01:20:31.840 it's incredibly
01:20:32.860 unstable right now
01:20:34.320 and before you
01:20:36.680 start thinking
01:20:37.380 about what else
01:20:38.640 can I do
01:20:39.480 shore up your
01:20:40.940 financial house and
01:20:41.960 make sure that you
01:20:42.740 are not overpaying
01:20:44.120 on your credit
01:20:44.800 cards or your
01:20:45.880 mortgage you
01:20:47.280 can save hundreds
01:20:48.120 if not a thousand
01:20:49.640 dollars every
01:20:50.740 month that's
01:20:52.620 better than getting
01:20:53.160 a second job
01:20:53.880 isn't it over

01:21:23.180 You are listening to
01:21:26.600 the Glenn Beck
01:21:27.360 program
01:21:28.260 Let me go to line
01:21:36.460 you know what no
01:21:38.560 I'm not going to
01:21:39.920 start a conversation
01:21:40.820 with somebody and
01:21:41.720 then have to cut
01:21:43.000 them short
01:21:43.480 I want to open up
01:21:44.880 the phone lines to
01:21:45.820 you we have a lot
01:21:47.220 of people calling up
01:21:48.240 with a lot of
01:21:49.380 different points of
01:21:49.960 view coming up
01:21:50.600 I want you to
01:21:58.020 think about the
01:21:58.900 policies of this
01:22:00.700 administration and I
01:22:02.300 want I want you to
01:22:03.560 think about them not
01:22:05.880 in the way of how
01:22:06.800 bad they are I want
01:22:08.340 you to set out and
01:22:09.420 look at it like this
01:22:10.700 for instance on
01:22:11.540 immigration if your
01:22:14.140 goal was to unleash
01:22:17.060 COVID as rapidly as
01:22:21.200 you can wouldn't it
01:22:23.500 be in would you
01:22:24.940 change anything of
01:22:26.460 the Obama the
01:22:28.200 Biden policy on the
01:22:29.760 border of letting
01:22:31.260 Mexicans which
01:22:33.060 Mexico has a
01:22:36.220 horrible COVID
01:22:38.480 problem would you
01:22:41.100 change that policy if
01:22:42.900 your goal was to
01:22:43.960 harm the American
01:22:45.280 worker would you
01:22:47.720 change his open
01:22:49.420 border policy at
01:22:50.900 all if your goal was
01:22:53.800 to overwhelm the
01:22:55.220 system would you
01:22:57.200 change the policy at
01:22:59.580 all I wouldn't I
01:23:04.680 and I thought well
01:23:05.540 yeah you could pay
01:23:06.460 them to come in but
01:23:07.360 then I thought of the
01:23:08.060 NGOs that they are
01:23:09.380 dismissing that are
01:23:11.220 paying for all of
01:23:13.240 their bus trips coming
01:23:14.880 right into our
01:23:16.080 border and we are
01:23:18.280 paying them because
01:23:19.220 we're now offering
01:23:20.060 free health care
01:23:21.220 what this is a
01:23:25.360 success if you're
01:23:27.280 trying to destroy
01:23:28.400 America luckily we
01:23:31.100 got some good news on
01:23:32.580 Friday and I want to
01:23:34.660 introduce you to the
01:23:35.360 man who led the
01:23:36.800 charge on this in 60
01:23:38.940 seconds
01:23:39.360 the Glenn Beck
01:23:43.700 program
01:23:44.320 so Angela wrote in
01:23:46.160 about her dog's
01:23:46.980 experience with
01:23:47.600 rough green she said
01:23:48.420 I ordered rough
01:23:49.300 greens a few weeks
01:23:50.120 ago while listening
01:23:50.920 to Glenn Beck on the
01:23:51.760 blaze if his dog
01:23:53.460 loved it I was sure
01:23:54.860 mine would too
01:23:55.880 oh she has a four
01:23:58.800 year old miniature
01:23:59.560 dachshund dachshund

01:24:01.580 holy cow those things
01:24:03.360 are picky and they
01:24:05.020 can be a little
01:24:05.720 temperamental she
01:24:07.920 said my four year
01:24:08.800 old dachshund
01:24:09.960 Parker loved it
01:24:11.680 right away I put
01:24:12.600 it in his bowl and
01:24:13.600 he lapped it up much
01:24:14.960 to my surprise
01:24:15.940 Quinn my 14 year
01:24:17.780 old shepherd boxer
01:24:18.920 mix was a bit more
01:24:20.020 reluctant and didn't
01:24:21.400 seem enthusiastic at
01:24:22.620 first but I kept
01:24:23.700 sprinkling it on her
01:24:24.680 food daily and after
01:24:26.240 a week she eagerly
01:24:27.580 was awaiting it in
01:24:28.740 the morning and now
01:24:29.460 gobbling it down I
01:24:31.220 have noticed a
01:24:32.060 definite increase in
01:24:33.080 energy in both of the
01:24:34.240 dogs thank you so

01:25:20.120 news on the border and I
01:25:23.520 am going to let the man
01:25:25.180 who actually led the way
01:25:27.740 on this tell you about
01:25:30.220 what it all means Eric
01:25:32.120 Schmidt he is the Missouri
01:25:33.780 Attorney General I
01:25:35.680 spent some time with
01:25:36.500 him yesterday at a
01:25:38.020 meeting of Attorney
01:25:38.860 Generals and invited him
01:25:41.160 on the program today to
01:25:43.220 meet you again we've had
01:25:45.220 him on before Eric welcome
01:25:46.640 to the program great to be
01:25:48.760 with you Glenn so first of
01:25:51.340 all congratulations tell the
01:25:54.460 American people what
01:25:56.160 happened on Friday it's a
01:25:59.160 big win Glenn for border
01:26:00.600 security for national
01:26:02.500 security to stop the flow of
01:26:04.460 illegal immigration drug
01:26:06.260 trafficking human trafficking
01:26:07.660 with the judge's order that
01:26:09.680 he issued a little after five
01:26:11.280 o'clock the federal judge
01:26:12.340 issued a little after five
01:26:13.360 o'clock on Friday so to give
01:26:15.760 it some context on day one
01:26:17.720 Joe Biden reversed President
01:26:20.720 Trump's very successful
01:26:22.200 remain in Mexico policy or
01:26:24.320 otherwise known as the
01:26:25.060 migrant protection protocols
01:26:26.420 which is to say that as
01:26:28.140 people were coming here if
01:26:30.140 you're seeking asylum which
01:26:31.580 by the way it was found that
01:26:32.840 nine out of ten asylum claims
01:26:34.740 were bogus the Biden folks
01:26:38.120 didn't even acknowledge that
01:26:39.220 or even reference that the
01:26:40.860 judge points that out they
01:26:41.780 didn't even do the due
01:26:42.460 diligence but as you were
01:26:43.680 coming here seeking asylum
01:26:44.960 that Mexico what was the
01:26:46.660 waiting room because what we
01:26:48.600 know is that if you let those
01:26:50.620 folks into the United States
01:26:52.120 give them a court date on the
01:26:53.780 honor system and the release
01:26:55.420 didn't be interior of the United
01:26:56.460 States you don't ever see him
01:26:57.920 again and that's exactly what
01:27:00.320 has been happening the 1.1
01:27:02.240 million people since January
01:27:03.560 has come here legally and
01:27:05.600 probably in not probably but it
01:27:08.400 has created a perverse incentive
01:27:10.120 and the judge cited this that if
01:27:11.600 you have people who get paid to
01:27:15.100 get people here illegally if they
01:27:17.520 know all they have to do is say
01:27:19.220 we're seeking asylum and they are
01:27:21.220 in the United States it's very
01:27:23.400 lucrative for these really bad
01:27:25.080 guys to take advantage by the way
01:27:27.140 of people along the way too it's
01:27:29.400 big business and so the Trump
01:27:31.800 policy that said Mexico is the
01:27:33.740 waiting room significantly cut
01:27:35.580 down on this illegal activity we
01:27:38.200 said the Biden administration can't
01:27:39.840 do what they did which is to
01:27:40.760 reverse that policy and a judge
01:27:42.100 agreed with us so the good news
01:27:43.940 here is that we're going to get
01:27:46.240 back to President Trump's remain in
01:27:48.560 Mexico policy and it's a great
01:27:50.100 example of federalism at work
01:27:52.920 okay so so hang on before we get
01:27:56.360 into this I just I want to know a
01:27:58.760 couple of things the judge said that
01:28:02.080 they had to reverse it why what was
01:28:05.100 in your case that showed that they
01:28:09.280 didn't have the right to drop this
01:28:12.700 particular thing that Trump had in in
01:28:15.540 place great question so on day one and
01:28:19.100 we can talk about some other
01:28:20.000 executive actions that President
01:28:21.500 Biden took that were illegal on day
01:28:23.060 one in basically two sentences just
01:28:25.400 says we're reversing it and opens up
01:28:27.860 the borders okay the reality is under a
01:28:31.180 very technical scheme the the
01:28:33.820 administrative procedure act you have to
01:28:36.340 go through a process of taking in
01:28:38.980 notice and comment hearing from people
01:28:41.500 who want to weigh in and balancing all
01:28:44.640 of those things before you make an
01:28:46.160 administrative change now I would argue
01:28:47.720 that we've allowed way too many
01:28:49.680 administrative departments and
01:28:51.780 department heads to make law and we
01:28:53.340 ought to allow that you know got to get
01:28:54.640 back to article one branch but be that
01:28:56.940 as it may they didn't even do that
01:28:58.740 then we filed the lawsuit then they
01:29:01.180 came back in a haphazard way to try to
01:29:02.980 cover their tracks and say oh no we
01:29:04.320 did actually did consider this and judge
01:29:05.920 and the judge said no you didn't you
01:29:07.940 didn't in the first place you didn't
01:29:09.700 later you've been caught red-handed this
01:29:11.880 is an illegal act this is an illegal
01:29:13.460 executive action therefore we are back
01:29:16.000 now to the policy that was lawfully
01:29:18.320 enacted by the Trump administration to
01:29:20.620 remain in Mexico policy so this is
01:29:23.060 again an example of you have to push
01:29:25.140 back we're not going to accept this
01:29:27.160 sort of lawlessness of the Biden
01:29:28.900 administration and they've done this on
01:29:31.160 social cost of greenhouse gases they've
01:29:33.620 done this on the Keystone XL pipeline
01:29:35.400 and there's a number of lawsuits in the
01:29:37.120 pipeline there to challenge this but
01:29:38.960 this is by far and away I think the
01:29:41.140 most significant victory against the
01:29:43.060 Biden administration for these kind of
01:29:44.980 actions I'm speaking to the attorney
01:29:47.660 general of Missouri Eric Schmidt who who
01:29:53.380 led the way on this now Eric you say this
01:29:57.180 is a very good thing because they've been
01:29:59.800 ordered to do it well they've been
01:30:01.900 ordered to do other things and they're
01:30:04.260 not obeying the courts they're dismissing
01:30:07.140 the courts also this was happening in a
01:30:10.140 district court if I'm not mistaken here in
01:30:12.580 Texas what makes you think that this
01:30:15.900 will be supported because the government
01:30:18.500 is going to appeal what makes you believe
01:30:22.720 this will actually win at the highest
01:30:25.460 level well this was a very well-reasoned
01:30:28.560 opinion and I think the judge who was an
01:30:30.780 Amarillo and by the way the Department of
01:30:32.520 Justice tried very hard to move it out of
01:30:34.380 that because this particular DOJ was
01:30:37.840 trying to get it to an Obama appointed
01:30:40.320 judge but the reality is the rule of
01:30:43.700 law prevailed here and that's all you
01:30:45.380 really want from the judiciary as far as
01:30:46.940 I'm concerned to interpret the law as
01:30:48.420 it's written not how they want it to be
01:30:49.920 that's not the left's view of what they
01:30:54.280 want judges to do they're much more you
01:30:55.900 know in favor of judicial activism but
01:30:57.460 the judge gave them seven days to appeal
01:30:59.620 so they would appeal to the Fifth Circuit
01:31:01.540 Court of Appeals which is a strong
01:31:04.200 conservative and I mean that in the
01:31:06.380 sense of you know they rule based on the
01:31:09.560 law so we're confident that the Court of
01:31:11.640 Appeals will reject the appeal but this
01:31:15.080 is a big deal because if you think of
01:31:17.520 what's happening at the border it's a
01:31:19.020 total disaster we've not there's a 21
01:31:21.860 year high in illegal crossings you have
01:31:25.260 in Missouri's interest in this by the way
01:31:27.080 not being a border state is we've taken
01:31:29.820 on human trafficking we've spent a lot of
01:31:31.900 resources our state has made it a
01:31:33.620 priority to take on the dark underworld of
01:31:36.580 human trafficking in these cartels are
01:31:40.060 very very engaged in human trafficking
01:31:42.440 including trafficking drugs across the
01:31:44.940 border and it's very profitable for them
01:31:46.420 right now because people are you know
01:31:47.800 being released into the interior of the
01:31:49.120 United States
01:31:49.880 Eric we spent time together yesterday I
01:31:55.560 was lucky enough to be invited up to the
01:31:59.260 Republican Attorney General's meeting
01:32:02.900 which I think you have what once a year
01:32:05.540 and and I was I was impressed with how
01:32:12.160 many of you guys know exactly what you are
01:32:16.740 up against and that you are the last line
01:32:19.640 of defense I mean after you guys we're down
01:32:23.460 to our local sheriff you are the last line
01:32:27.240 of defense to be able to stand for the the
01:32:31.760 bill of rights what was the look go
01:32:35.680 ahead no I was gonna say and and you know
01:32:38.780 on our discussion I think that this really
01:32:40.840 is a fight to save America and I don't I
01:32:45.060 don't that mean that rhetorically in some
01:32:47.760 grandiose speech I mean it very practically I
01:32:51.660 think the Republic is truly on the line and I
01:32:54.560 think that for us and this is what I believe
01:32:57.660 and I think a lot of Americans certainly your
01:33:00.280 listeners do I know you do that the America is
01:33:03.020 the most noble important experiment in the
01:33:05.820 history of the world what the founders said
01:33:08.280 was everybody before us in 1776 had it exactly
01:33:12.560 backwards we don't need to ask our rights
01:33:14.880 don't come from a king or a queen or some
01:33:17.880 despot our rights come from God and what
01:33:20.760 government is what government is is a project
01:33:24.100 to protect those rights to protect those
01:33:27.180 individual rights that were given by God so
01:33:29.220 your ability to speak your mind your ability
01:33:31.060 to defend yourself are born with those things
01:33:33.740 and America is very unique in the history of
01:33:37.700 the world it's an exception that's what
01:33:39.280 American exceptionalism means we are
01:33:41.040 exceptional in the sense that most places
01:33:43.660 around the world still to this day don't
01:33:45.620 believe that and if we lose this fight to
01:33:48.600 save America there's no going back we are the
01:33:51.060 last best hope for mankind we got to get it
01:33:53.260 right so when you talk about these things
01:33:55.400 that are happening in Washington DC
01:33:56.840 federalizing elections and undermining election
01:33:59.860 security just to obtain power by using what
01:34:03.020 they were doing during the pandemic to loosen
01:34:04.720 those integrity measures just to gain power
01:34:07.920 to teach our kids to despise America as
01:34:10.960 opposed to teaching them what America really
01:34:13.140 is about the bill of rights which is very
01:34:16.540 important but most you know I think it starts
01:34:18.320 with the Declaration of Independence which is
01:34:19.920 our mission statement it says who we are what
01:34:22.740 we believe what we stand for and the
01:34:25.240 Constitution then sets forth that framework to
01:34:28.140 protect those rights the states came together
01:34:30.700 to create a federal government of limited
01:34:32.480 powers and the people reign supreme not
01:34:36.980 some sovereign authority who claims that they
01:34:39.280 got their power from God and we have to ask
01:34:41.760 permission that's very unique we don't talk
01:34:44.780 about that as much anymore but I certainly view
01:34:46.460 my mission as an attorney general and now
01:34:48.460 running for the United States Senate as
01:34:50.620 protecting that protecting individual rights
01:34:53.140 I somebody asked me and we announced a cold
01:34:56.400 case arrest last week in St. Louis as part of
01:35:00.520 my job as attorney general of the state's chief
01:35:02.120 law enforcement officer legal officer I was
01:35:04.180 asked a question how do you feel about fear
01:35:06.780 being used right now to get people to wear
01:35:09.720 masks and I said there's you know basically
01:35:11.760 there's nothing new in the sun that's what
01:35:13.280 every dictator and every tyrant has said
01:35:16.240 the beginning of the world they've used it
01:35:19.320 fear to aggregate and accumulate power I do
01:35:22.820 not want to live in some futuristic dystopian
01:35:25.180 biomedical security state and I'm going to do
01:35:27.400 everything I can the powers that I swore to
01:35:29.880 protect the Constitution to protect individual
01:35:32.840 rights and I think we have to be absolutely
01:35:35.240 committed to that and if we are if we band
01:35:37.540 together on that we're going to win this
01:35:39.840 thing and our kids will look back our
01:35:42.140 grandkids will look back and be very very
01:35:43.880 proud of each and you don't have to be the
01:35:45.340 attorney general to stand up for that I see
01:35:47.380 people going to school board meetings I see
01:35:49.620 people going to city council meetings for
01:35:51.300 standing up who don't want to take this
01:35:53.800 anymore they believe in America what we are
01:35:55.700 who we are what we can be so that's a very
01:35:58.540 important role for for me as they do I we're
01:36:01.460 talking to Eric Schmidt the Missouri attorney
01:36:04.300 general and he is going to be running for
01:36:07.600 Senate in the state I I I had to leave right
01:36:12.680 after I I spoke to all of you last night and I
01:36:18.180 I'm wondering how many of the people because
01:36:20.780 I didn't get a chance to ask the whole room
01:36:22.580 out of the 22 that were there how many of
01:36:26.520 them are on the same page with you now that
01:36:29.440 you're saying what you're saying this morning
01:36:31.560 I think it's a very committed group it is a
01:36:36.320 very committed group to these principles we
01:36:38.080 have a unique role in our system in that as
01:36:41.060 we talked about governments our project to
01:36:42.860 protect those rights that's our job that's
01:36:45.160 our job to protect the rights my job isn't
01:36:47.400 to give cover to some authoritarian regime
01:36:51.440 because it's the government that's not my
01:36:53.400 job my job is to make sure that people can
01:36:56.840 say their peace under the first amendment
01:36:58.800 but under the second amendment people can
01:37:00.540 protect themselves and so and that's so you
01:37:03.140 see a lot of the work that we do we're
01:37:04.520 leading the brief on making sure that this
01:37:06.720 restrictive regime in New York where you have
01:37:08.580 to tell the government or some bureaucrat that
01:37:10.760 you're really in danger to be able to conceal
01:37:13.100 carry that's not what the founders ever
01:37:15.280 intended we're fighting that fight whether
01:37:16.860 it's you know the abortion issue going to
01:37:18.780 United States Supreme Court we're fighting
01:37:20.680 that fight whether it's protecting first
01:37:22.360 amendment rights or you know you could go down
01:37:24.500 the pick the issue I think right now pushing
01:37:27.460 back against the federal government and by
01:37:29.460 the way also pushing back against local
01:37:31.460 governments that want to treat people as
01:37:34.540 subjects and not citizens we're committed to
01:37:37.140 that fight I believe it in my core and I'm
01:37:40.600 telling you Glenn you you know it from your
01:37:43.100 listeners there is something happening right
01:37:46.220 now in the city council rooms in the school
01:37:49.680 board rooms in these hearing rooms people
01:37:53.360 don't want to lose America they don't because
01:37:57.680 it is this shining city on a hill and we've
01:38:01.280 always been a people that wanted to know
01:38:02.940 what's on the other side of that mountain
01:38:04.440 and what people see right now is a cliff and
01:38:07.500 we have a choice what is our role going to be in
01:38:11.860 the future of this republic because as Ben
01:38:14.320 Franklin said you know we walked out of the
01:38:16.220 convention it's you've got a republic man if
01:38:19.100 you can keep it it's hard work because human
01:38:21.940 nature and the founders knew this human
01:38:24.300 nature is you see it across the world it's
01:38:27.020 happened before is to accumulate power dole out
01:38:31.800 favors to your cronies so the founders knew
01:38:34.980 that spreading out power among the branches
01:38:37.320 with federalism making sure that no one
01:38:39.920 person or branch was too powerful all of
01:38:42.420 that is as federalism works horizontally and
01:38:44.580 vertically was meant to do one thing protect
01:38:47.060 individual liberty Eric that's our path forward
01:38:49.740 I I can't thank you enough for everything

01:40:34.560 embrace federalism yeah you know foundational
01:40:39.980 principles I had the opportunity to speak to
01:40:42.080 them last night and I spoke to them about the
01:40:45.660 mission statement of the United States the
01:40:48.520 Declaration of Independence and the Bill of
01:40:51.540 Rights and and I honestly ask them on your
01:40:56.620 behalf to stand up united together as one and be
01:41:03.900 seen as the people who they really are as the last
01:41:09.720 defender of the rights guaranteed in our
01:41:13.440 Constitution it's we don't believe in the federal
01:41:17.280 government anymore I don't believe the Justice
01:41:21.160 Department is actually dispensing justice and did
01:41:25.360 you speak to them with a parrot on your shoulder and an
01:41:27.640 eye patch I did you at any point because you brought this you've

01:44:19.180 everything it's great it was an exceptionally hot summer morning on 13th of July writes the
01:44:34.360 Guardian when people in the Malistan district of southern Afghan province woke up to find that
01:44:41.260 the conflict that it swirled around them for weeks had finally reached their small town and Taliban
01:44:46.800 fighters were closing in by noon of that day 22 year old Fatima seven months pregnant was seeking
01:44:54.440 shelter from bullets raining down on her home in her village which was caught in the vicious crossfire
01:45:00.680 between Taliban militants and government forces surviving the battle was not the only thing on her mind
01:45:06.520 however her family were terrified that the Taliban gained control of their village they would begin
01:45:12.900 taking women like Fatima as they had taken other young women in parts of the country falling under their
01:45:19.900 control we had heard of cases where the Taliban would kill young men and sexually abuse girls and young women
01:45:26.780 of the family the fears of Fatima and her family were justified when the Taliban finally came to our village
01:45:34.100 they wanted to take a young girl with them but she ran to the roof of her house
01:45:39.560 and ended her life
01:45:41.660 Nazarene fund was started because when our troops were pulled out of of Iraq something called ISIS came in
01:46:01.420 and they were kidnapping and raping and killing families but mainly women and children
01:46:08.540 were bringing them into sex slavery we started the Nazarene fund and now our chief operating officer our CEO is
01:46:18.420 Rudy Atala and I wanted to get him on the phone right away today to see what he knows about the situation
01:46:26.460 in Afghanistan and if he sees a way for us eventually to help Rudy how are you sir hey good good to hear
01:46:35.940 your voice Glenn yeah good to talk to you tell me tell me tell me what you know about what's
01:46:41.180 happening in Afghanistan and how bad it is for the people that we've left behind
01:46:46.520 uh it's extremely bad i mean i'm i'm getting i'm getting calls right now from gulf states from uh from the region from lebanon
01:46:56.400 from all over the place um if you if you watch uh the the news media in the middle east um they're showing
01:47:04.200 you know repeats of of of people falling off c-17s on takeoff uh people dying people scrambling looking looking for ways
01:47:12.980 to escape afghanistan we just absolutely uh evacuated without leaving them a single choice
01:47:19.520 or protecting any of them and uh all my military friends uh that served over there i had in fact i have
01:47:26.220 a former navy seal here with me staying uh at my house and we were talking about it he uh he did uh
01:47:33.160 four combat tours in afghanistan he said all our folks our allies that that helped us on the ground now are stuck
01:47:41.140 and what's really going to happen is eventually al-qaeda is going to get its foothold
01:47:45.940 terrorism is going to go back on the rise and the people the people that uh you know are not killed
01:47:53.040 that we've trained are eventually going to flip because they want to survive and maintain themselves
01:47:59.100 and so so these trained individuals are now going to be working against us not only that
01:48:05.220 but now al-qaeda and the taliban have access to u.s armament u.s weapons u.s drones knowledge
01:48:12.800 drones drones yes drones absolutely scan eagles we use the scan eagle uh when we did the mares
01:48:19.480 alabama hostage rescue so so yes and china's in there recognize them already is going to recognize
01:48:26.480 the afghans the russians are going to recognize the afghans you can bank on al-qaeda 3.0 coming back
01:48:32.860 with augusto and sooner or later we'll start seeing all these terrorist attacks around the world
01:48:38.840 and what breaks my heart and what really frustrates me more than anything everything that we worked 20
01:48:46.580 years to to to achieve is down the drain now we got to start from from ground zero again because of
01:48:53.960 this very poor decision by the white house rudy um are we going to be able to be in a situation
01:49:02.500 to where we can help these women and children at some point as the nazarene fund
01:49:08.840 i'm looking i'm looking at different ways to do that um it's it's not going to be easy we have we
01:49:18.840 no longer have any allies in the region i mean it's it's just down now pakistan the church there is
01:49:25.260 under constant persecution now afghanistan obviously has fallen there's nobody in the region that we if we
01:49:32.240 work we want we're going to have to work very quietly and and i'm uh you know i need just need to figure
01:49:38.500 out the best ways to to support these people whether it's in place or slowly get them out of
01:49:44.160 the country i mean it's it's uh as you said in your opening remarks we we're still dealing with
01:49:51.240 the problems in syria from poor decisions during the obama administration and and we we're still
01:49:57.760 rescuing kidnapped women and children there are still thousands missing and that's an ongoing
01:50:03.580 situation so afghanistan is going to be in the same in the same uh genre but but uh you know right now
01:50:10.180 it's extremely dangerous but i'm hoping that we're going to find a way to do something rudy thank you
01:50:15.980 very much our prayers are with you and and everybody that um is part of our military this has got to be a
01:50:23.980 just a brutal brutal weekend uh for you and um your comrades not much i bet yes thank you so much rudy
01:50:32.900 god bless that's a lieutenant colonel uh rudy atala he is the chief operating officer of the nazarene fund
01:50:40.060 uh something that you uh founded helping women and children and all slaves um and religious minorities
01:50:50.120 that are trapped uh behind enemy lines we try to get them out you can find out more or make a donation
01:50:57.760 to the nazarenefund.org now how many millions of dollars were raised for the nazarene fund do you
01:51:04.500 know off the top of your head i know the initial amount was 26 million it's incredible yeah incredible
01:51:12.060 and unfortunately now the the job is going to get as he said i mean i've rudy is always i mean he was
01:51:19.840 with the national security council i mean he has been a presidential advisor this guy it he knows
01:51:26.020 it and he knows the middle east and he's always like don't worry he's a big god guy we'll get him
01:51:31.540 we'll get him we got it to have him just say i've never heard him go
01:51:36.460 uh now it's i asked him for the first time this morning so he hasn't had time but
01:51:44.360 i've never heard him discouraged or say i don't know it's gonna be tough
01:51:50.100 yeah you know it's interesting looking at this in that a lot of people are saying
01:51:55.460 well i can't believe we trained spent all this money training this this army and they just folded
01:52:00.260 like this and it doesn't make sense right the actual thing that occurred is probably worse
01:52:09.900 which is a lot of the people we trained holding a lot of the weapons we gave them
01:52:15.420 are much close more closely aligned with the taliban than we expected
01:52:20.060 and now or they're trained and have those weapons and we'll be fighting with them right do you remember
01:52:26.480 the kurd situation under george hw bush when we just let the kurds just get slaughtered because we
01:52:32.320 wouldn't supply air support that's really the problem they were not prepared to fight without air
01:52:39.260 support they've got their own uh air force uh-huh do they um what does that air force really look
01:52:47.600 like and how how trained were they to provide the kind of air cover that the united states government
01:52:54.140 does oh no they didn't have that sort of capability and some of the criticism is that we were so good
01:52:59.820 with the air support yeah that they couldn't do anything uh on their own right they essentially
01:53:05.720 became dependent on our support correct which may very well be true however it's not going to solve
01:53:12.240 this situation now we can all talk about this you know this is what happens when you essentially put
01:53:16.720 you know aoc's twitter feed into policy that's what this is let me take a couple of phone calls here
01:53:22.580 first from michelle she's a veteran did a couple of tours in iraq how are you feeling today
01:53:29.060 miserable just miserable i spent thursday night talking an afghan vet in our neighbor the friend
01:53:40.480 of our neighbors down off the ledge um it just you cannot explain the both rage and despair of the
01:53:53.220 afghan vets afghan vets right now i'm here at fort hood and i just it's mind-bogglingly
01:54:00.740 stupid because it was all so predictable um in fact i will give half a cheer to general mark milley
01:54:11.260 who i you know mostly dislike and i think like 98 percent dislike but um he and some other generals
01:54:24.360 prepared plans for this i mean this is not a new thing the withdrawal from afghanistan and
01:54:31.000 he said hey we need this this and this to happen we need to get our allies out
01:54:35.880 um you know there have been reports floating around for a decade and about how to withdraw
01:54:44.020 safely get our troops out of there get our allies and equipment out of there and biden said i'm gonna
01:54:52.640 do it okay well here are our plans this is what needs to happen before we can withdraw biden was like
01:54:58.160 cool thanks bro and did his own thing yeah i actually did read the same reporting about milley in that
01:55:05.120 at least at the last the last uh few months was arguing for a some sort of uh improved withdrawal
01:55:13.860 now he's also really famous for leaking uh favorable stories about himself to the press so i'm not sure
01:55:20.480 how to take that but i did read that same reporting michelle uh please pass on our uh condolences and uh
01:55:28.160 and our heartfelt gratitude for all of you that stood up and and fought it was uh it was not wasted
01:55:38.100 on the hearts of the american people thank you so much michelle let me go to john in new york hello john
01:55:44.900 uh i'm sorry how are you doing good this is uh john in pennsylvania sorry go ahead how are you
01:55:52.960 mr beck very good good hey uh first time long time thank you i just want to let you know um
01:55:59.260 preface the conversation with i respect the office i do not respect the man
01:56:04.040 yeah i feel as though one thing was lacking from this plan and that's a word called strategy
01:56:12.260 strategies defined as a plan of action designed to achieve a major or overall aim
01:56:16.540 he had his own strategy but it wasn't a military strategy it's how do i score enough points to win
01:56:22.940 another election should i make it that far with my health uh i'm trying to remain composed here
01:56:30.140 because there's things i want to say that i can't say um i'm a combat bet i'm a wounded combat bet
01:56:36.420 my life has been irreparably changed from this conflict my resolve has not i still stand with the
01:56:43.400 american people i will do anything for the american people and if i was asked to go back i would go
01:56:47.920 back tomorrow god bless you john thank you so much adam last call you're on the glenbeck program
01:56:55.680 hello hey go ahead adam how are you all right well i gotta say you know what thinking going into the
01:57:04.160 election that trump was doing a good job but he was hated by everybody and i mean not everybody
01:57:11.220 obviously yeah yeah but you know i mean just all the stuff that was going on with trump
01:57:15.680 biden coming across as a moderate so you think all right maybe i go with the moderate guy here
01:57:21.860 and everything works out better and the country gets along better and everything this man has done
01:57:27.620 since he got into office is wrong wait wait wait did you did you vote for biden yeah i i figured what
01:57:37.420 the hell i mean i knew my vote didn't matter anyway i'm in new york yeah but i'm like you know i just
01:57:42.700 i just want i just wanted to you know kind of get to like more of a right so anyway this guy has been
01:57:51.260 awful everything he does is wrong he's dysfunctional and i mean my thing is that i actually think i have a
01:57:59.260 cure i think the cure the vaccine for america for this thing to make it less horrible is trump
01:58:06.360 takes congressional seat in florida i agree with you in the house i agree with you i think he does
01:58:14.120 what now if he becomes yeah he runs in 2022 and becomes a congressman they take control of the
01:58:22.680 house and he becomes speaker of the house because he doesn't even need to be a congressman to be
01:58:27.240 speaker of the house right no you don't need to but you know john quincy adams was president and then
01:58:33.400 ran for a congressional seat and he made a huge difference in in the country because of that
01:58:41.240 congressional seat it most presidents wouldn't do it because they would look look down on it but being
01:58:47.100 able to replace nancy pelosi oh my gosh would that be delicious
01:58:55.480 all right uh i'm pretty vocal about the products that i believe in that goes double when the product
01:59:03.960 in question has had a huge impact on my life like relief factor has i had terrible pain all the time
01:59:12.960 uh in fact i flew twice this weekend um and even flying was extraordinarily painful for me and i just
01:59:22.780 thought this is what my life is going to be like i was skeptical um people were telling me about relief
01:59:29.680 factor but i was like yeah yeah whatever um oh let's get that inflammation down let's get some ibuprofen
01:59:36.160 800 and never thought it would work really didn't my wife insisted that i try it for three weeks just try it
01:59:44.840 or i'm not listening to you complain and i was like you gotta listen to me complain that's what i do best
01:59:51.740 and so i took relief factor not expecting it to work and it worked for me please try it 70 of the
01:59:58.260 people who try it for three weeks go on to order more if it's not working in three weeks it's not
02:00:02.460 going to work for you 800-500-8384 800-500-8384 it's relieffactor.com
