00:06:30.320Doesn't matter what's happening or where things go here in the near future, this president is not dropping off pallets of cash.
00:06:41.460That's not going to happen this time around.
00:06:44.280So they're betting that eventually will fold, or maybe they can do enough damage that they can cripple this president into, you know, the next two years or whatever's left of his term, right, in the midterms here, that gas price is where they are.
00:07:01.400And by the way, don't discount. Gas prices cost everything is. It's on the table. These are things that people are going to be, when they vote, coming up in November.
00:07:14.280gonna be top of mind for him president very he's well aware of that i don't know that the best
00:07:21.460messaging has come out on all of it um maybe we need to do a little bit better job about talking
00:07:27.700to those people and explaining to them the reason we're in this this mess in the first place
00:07:32.060is bidenomics that's why prices are so high president's done a lot of good things to move
00:07:37.740the needle gas prices were much lower at one point who was that why was that was it was it
00:07:44.640biden that did that no is this it was this president and his goal is to move them even lower
00:07:50.980disarming iran's nuclear ambitions at the same time uh you know single-handedly saving the world
00:07:57.200and i think there's something bigger we've heard glenn talk about this i've heard some other folks
00:08:01.840discuss this as well i think there is a reshaping right now of how the world works particularly
00:08:07.720with with oil with energy um that a lot of folks may not you you may not be able to see from the
00:08:16.720surface but if you look closely you can you can get a little bit better glimpse of it all
00:08:22.120that's all happening while the midterms are we've got the midterms going on we got to win these
00:08:29.640These races, and at the same time, they do believe, economically, they've got Iran on the ropes.0.89
00:08:39.860They have done so much damage to this country.1.00
00:08:43.840They've got them on the ropes, and they will be successful, they believe, in crushing them.
00:08:51.440But anybody, any country, any other organization that might be helping them in any other way,
00:08:57.960They got to take that off the table altogether.
00:09:00.760A little bit more from the president's full response here.
00:09:04.660No one has given the Islamic Republic of Iran a greater opportunity to make a deal than me.
00:18:08.660You can take it to the bank with the same credibility that the strait is closed, etc.
00:18:14.960Anyway, we know that's not true because they have been averaging around 10 million barrels a day of oil passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
00:18:25.740Again, that's about half the pre-war level.
00:18:30.560It's not enough to completely bring markets back down.
00:18:34.200Now, we've seen prices lately, we've seen them drop as low as in the 60s in $70 range.
00:18:39.920I think today they're probably back into the 80s, if I remember correctly, looking at it.
00:18:44.360yeah 80s and 90s so um and then more importantly the price at the pump that's the one that voters
00:18:51.560really have their eye on you're still waiting for that to equal out and you've heard the president
00:18:56.400talk about price gouging and things of that nature and getting that that's that's where you really
00:19:00.920want to see that move uh to really feel good about where things are going to add in in the
00:19:06.460midterms here but there is a corridor in the Strait of Hormuz open there's something else
00:19:13.820They are at the same time that they've been able to secure about these 10 million barrels moving through the strait each day.
00:19:20.300They're also working on building other infrastructure, pipelines, et cetera, to move some of the significance away from the Strait of Hormuz.
00:19:28.800As you may have heard Glenn point this out before and I've heard others talk about this, but there's a lot more happening in this move with Iran.
00:19:37.280And, yes, the nuclear issue is a big part of it, but there is a reshaping at the same time of the world's energy markets
00:19:44.940and the dominance of the United States of America when it comes to particularly this issue altogether.
00:19:51.060Here's the key quote from the article.
00:19:53.760We have been controlling the southern lane of the Strait of Hormuz for two months now.
00:19:59.360The IRGC can be a nuisance, but they don't control the strait.
00:20:06.100So, this is something I've been describing for a while now, saying, you know, the way I understand it, the way this has been described to us, the way I see it, we have taken most of their military capabilities off the table.
00:20:18.980There's not much they can do when it comes to the Stratoharm moves.
00:20:21.900In fact, if you read into this article, there are key pieces that they discuss, targeting radar facilities, things like that, that have been very, very helpful.
00:20:35.940The task force overseeing the Hormuz effort is being run right out of the Army headquarters in Fort Bragg, North Carolina.
00:20:43.480The task force coordinating with regional golf partners creates a daily list of ships coming out of the Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz and into the Arabian Sea,
00:20:51.380as well as a list of rented empty takers that travel from the Arabian Sea through the Strait and into the ports of Gulf countries to pick up more oil.
00:21:00.640Each night, the ships are scheduled to move in one big outbound line during a certain time slot
00:21:08.200and one big inbound line during a separate time slot.
00:21:12.100All of this coordinated and overseen by the United States military.
00:21:18.180So when Trump says the strait is open, folks, he means it.
00:21:24.560And it's just another piece of this economic D-Day that we'll have to consider.
00:21:29.780Back with more as we'll continue to dig into this story.
00:21:34.120And there's just so much more on the table today.
00:21:55.260Rather than just tell you about Relief Factor, I want to let my audience do it.
00:22:00.140We hear from people every single day whose lives have changed, and I'd like you to hear a few of their stories.
00:22:05.320Mark was in tears from his daily hand joint discomfort, but after a week on Relief Factor, he felt 50% better, and now he barely notices any pain.
00:22:13.900He is so happy, he says he's spreading the word to everybody he knows.
00:26:27.08015 million barrels or more have even hit so it's on average about 10 moving through like i said
00:26:34.060that's about half of what they normally do this is this is again a piece of this that uh you're
00:26:44.800just the context you're you're just not gonna get now i'll say this one more time because this is
00:26:51.600important to win the midterms we don't have to have gas in the two dollar range but boy would
00:26:59.580it make things a lot easier and i think a lot of it you're going to see coming from the folks who
00:27:04.680are running these candidates particularly on the right um you're going to see that but there is
00:27:10.460also math that says we don't we don't necessarily have to have those things here's what i mean
00:27:19.320There is math out there that when you dig in and you do the calculations, essentially says that we don't have to have, you know, all the perfect scenarios and atmosphere for the course of Republicans to hold on to the House and the Senate.
00:27:42.880Well, I'll just give you a glimpse into this because, again, I'm not, you know, I'm not the foremost expert on these types of things.
00:27:51.080I'm more am watching what's happening on the ground.
00:27:54.660I'm watching what people are looking at, what they're paying attention to, what the sentiment is on the ground.
00:28:01.620But as the way I understand this, and maybe I can pull up the full for some of you numbers, folks.
00:28:10.620And the number that we need to hold on to the Senate and the races that are in play are, in fact, it's fewer that we need than the actual need for the Democrats are.
00:28:30.480You throw that in, essentially, with the factor of what's happening in the Senate as well, and you're coming out with a better number.
00:28:42.520Not only that, but this is based upon exactly how much money we got, what's happening in the Democrat Party.
00:29:33.660It is the young, it is that socialist, the naive, they don't have any idea what any of this stuff really means.
00:29:39.120It is that group of people who are running out, voting for candidates, getting fired up, and the money, and the money at the same time, is drying up as well.
00:29:55.660I knew I had this in my notes somewhere.
00:29:58.140Republicans only need six of 18 swing seats in order to keep the House.
00:30:07.200There is a report in Cook Political Report.
00:30:09.900Republicans are already at 212 likely on those seats.
00:30:14.700So we need six of the 18 that are swings.
00:30:20.020We've already got 212 likely in the full count.
00:30:23.940so that means we only need to win six of those 18 you need to hit 218 to hold the house
00:30:32.920so we need six of the 18 true swing districts for a house majority as they describe it
00:30:39.980while democrats in order to take control in the house must capture 13 of those 18 it's just a
00:30:49.960math equation that's all we're talking about simple math i know we have narratives i know we
00:30:56.800have stories and look but quite quite frankly the enthusiasm on the ground is is a big deal
00:31:05.960in michigan where i'm at we saw massive turnout in the primary just a week or two back
00:31:12.140for democrats republicans not so much i think they had about half the turnout as democrats
00:31:18.580Why is that? I called it a while back. It's just enthusiasm. The enthusiasm gap. That's a big issue. These are things that have to be calculated in. They're important. But the math says it right now. Republicans only need six out of 18 swing seats to keep the House. According to Cook Political Report, they already have 212 likely.
00:31:42.200that means they only need to win six out of the eight Democrats got to get 13 out of the 18
00:31:48.660excuse me I said six out of the eight I mean six out of the 18 that's right
00:31:53.280uh so Democrats needing 13 out of the 18 and here's another big number and in fact these are
00:32:02.220these are these are numbers uh probably that matter even more so although we've seen some
00:32:08.880We've seen some interesting, really interesting twists in spending here lately,
00:32:14.460particularly in Florida in the primary where Vendman spent, I think it was like close to $10 million.
00:32:19.200His socialist opponent spent about $700,000, and she won that race.
00:32:25.260Again, I think that's probably an enthusiasm issue.
00:32:29.880But this is the money that will make a big bang with the bucks, at least anyway.
00:32:35.420And the RNC is sitting on roughly $130 million right now.
00:50:29.460Dinesh D'Souza is with us right now. The book, The Stones Cry Out, Biblical Archaeology Prophecy
00:50:35.180in the Last Days. Okay, so what are some of the most interesting sites? You know, you just
00:50:40.840mentioned a few of them. Is there anything that just blows you away?
00:50:44.500Well, let's start with one from the New Testament. There's the great scene of the
00:50:48.560trial of Jesus, and it occurs before Pontius Pilate. Now, there have been since the 19th
00:50:57.440century two schools of skepticism about Pontius Pilate. The first school basically said there was
00:51:03.360no such person as Pontius Pilate. This is a fabricated account written by gospel writers
00:51:08.920who wrote much later than the events they purported describe. The second school is called
00:51:15.440minimalist. They minimize the account. They're like, well, Pontius Pilate is described in the
00:51:20.760Bible as the prefect of Judea. But in reality, the Bible writers got his title wrong. We know
00:51:28.480from Tacitus, who talks about that very position, that the person occupying that position was the
00:51:34.720procurator, the kind of financial administrator, not the prefect. So the idea here is that the
00:51:40.840Bible writers were kind of careless. They didn't really know they were getting their accounts
00:51:45.360second or third hand now in northern israel uh several years ago out of the ground comes a stone
00:51:53.940inscription and um astoundingly it says the following it's dedicated to the emperor tiberius
00:52:00.920so tiberius's name appears at the top and right below that the person who who dedicated the stone
00:52:06.200pontius pilate prefect of judea so not only is there like decisive confirmation of the existence
00:52:14.480of Pilate. But it turns out that the Bible writers got his title absolutely correct. What happened is
00:52:20.700in subsequent centuries, the Romans changed the title to procurator. And so these skeptics are
00:52:25.920like, aha, from the second century and the third century. But in the time of Jesus, he was prefect
00:52:32.300of Judea. So this is a small example, but very important because suddenly Pontius Pilate jumps
00:52:38.040out of the Bible and into the pages of history via the pathway of archaeology.
00:52:44.480What is this book and these discoveries, what kind of an impact is it having on people?
00:52:55.140I know, look, faith is one thing, and it requires something that maybe, you know, you lack proof,
00:53:01.440although I can tell you I've seen proof in existence in my life through faith,
00:53:05.080But what is it doing for people? Is it changing their perspective? What have you seen?
00:53:12.160I'm trying to accomplish three things with the book. I mean, the first is to confirm the historicity of the Bible.
00:53:20.560Because think about it, if the historical account of the Bible is true, the rest of it is more likely to be true.
00:53:26.960And by the way, you cannot do this kind of archaeology with any other religious book.
00:53:31.420No one has even attempted to do archaeology on the Koran or the Hindu scriptures or the Buddhist scriptures.
00:53:37.360Only the Bible can withstand 150 years of withering skeptical scrutiny with, by the way, not a single important archaeological finding to date that contradicts the Bible.
00:56:10.680New book, The Stones Cry Out, Biblical Archaeology Prophecy.
00:56:14.260in the last days in Dinesh, what do you hear?
00:56:18.540I mean, I'm sure you hear from some skeptics, and I think, you know, fine, be a skeptic.
00:56:24.180Genuinely skeptic is skeptical is fine, because it means you're actually seeking the truth.
00:56:29.640What do you hear from people that are skeptical of what you're doing
00:56:33.500or what maybe these archaeological digs?
00:56:37.280What are you hearing from those folks?
00:56:39.100so here's the um here's the big story about all this when archaeology first started this is really
00:56:47.060the middle of the 19th century the skeptics were really confident that it would be used as a
00:56:52.800really effective battering ram against the bible this all started out by the way with george smith
00:56:59.040about 1872 he discovered these sort of flood narratives in mesopotamia and he goes since
00:57:06.560those are much older than the Bible, he goes, whoa, the Bible writers just
00:57:10.440plagiarized their so-called flood account, the Noah story, from
00:57:14.700the Mesopotamian narratives. So this gave a lot
00:57:18.620of confidence to the skeptics that as the years progressed
00:57:22.640they would be able to debunk the Bible. Well, unfortunately it hasn't turned
00:57:26.740out that way. What's happened is there has been, starting in the 19th century
00:57:30.820but really exploding since the formation of the state of Israel
00:57:34.280And then most of the most important archaeological science are in the last 25 years.
00:57:40.140And what's happened is as each one comes out, the skeptic takes like a blow to the stomach and they try to retreat by coming up with a different type of skepticism.
00:57:49.680So a really good example was the skeptic said for a long time, King David is a mythical king.
00:58:26.040So then the skeptic has to back off, and the skeptic will now say something like, well, yeah, we admit there was a King David, but we doubt that he was an important and influential king.0.90
01:02:21.400And so kind of the purpose of this book is to bridge the gap between the academic world
01:02:27.480of archaeology and the great light that it throws on the Bible.
01:02:32.120not only corroborating the Bible, but in some cases giving you added information that's not
01:02:38.120even in the Bible. Yeah, that is incredible. And again, as someone of faith, my faith is beyond
01:02:46.560whatever I can see, but boy, when I can see it and putting my eyes on it, wrapping my head around it
01:02:54.440and through the book, I think that's quite an added value. The stones cry out. The Nashda

01:10:53.440That's essentially what they're getting at.
01:10:56.140So what is she saying through that weird thing that she's doing with her voice?
01:11:01.560She's saying that not only are they going to be paying for you, and by the way, you, if you're in New York City, you're in the state of the year.
01:11:09.400Because remember, again, it's not just New York City.
01:11:11.680The entire state now is funding the madness that is happening inside of the city
01:11:39.700In his first days in office, New York City is already an abject failure.
01:11:46.900So we have a real-time, a lot of people say, well, thank goodness.
01:11:51.220Thank goodness we have something we can point to.
01:11:54.220Thank goodness we have something we can monitor, we can see in real time what is actually happening with these crazy, out-of-touch policies.
01:12:03.680so that when you get folks like El Syed in Michigan and Nixon down in Florida
01:12:08.920and all of these different individuals,
01:12:12.120you can see what is literally the failure that's happening as we speak.
01:12:17.680And in Mondani's case, not only are they going to fund the city-run stores,
01:12:23.640but then they're going to give grants to the failing stores.
01:28:34.920So I was a part of the business, and I was also essential to the creative process.
01:28:39.900And the other thing is, this stupid convention that I got canceled from, I wasn't really even wanting to do it, but they had four of my actors, actors that I had cast who did main voices for the game, they were going to go to this convention.
01:28:57.100And I was asked by all of them, including the showrunners of this convention, to be there because I did all the music and I cast and directed the actors for these games.0.88
01:29:10.980And I love going to those things because it's so much fun to be with my actors.
01:29:16.260But the problem is the actors don't know how the game was developed.
01:29:19.180So when I go to those conventions and I'm on a panel, I'm the one that everybody gets to look to to answer the questions, because the actors are just like, wow, we were only in the studio for two hours, and then we were done.
01:30:15.960um and i i was completely flabbergasted besides the fact that i've never said anything negative
01:30:23.380about um people who are one of those alphabet letters i have people like that in my family
01:30:31.560i have friends i've worked with you know people in the industry of course for years um so i've
01:30:38.020never been uh essentially trying to persecute anybody who who made personal private choices
01:30:45.720What happened was I was on a podcast and they were asking me what I thought was, you know, one of the dangers of what the country is going through right now.
01:30:55.840And I said that I felt like Marxism was an existential threat to the United States.
01:31:01.440Marxism, which has infected the country and is manifested in so many different ways, postmodernism and, of course, the Democrat Socialists of America who are just pure Marxist ideology.
01:31:18.060And then they put up a poster on this podcast that showed something that said socialism is pride.
01:31:27.320And then they had the pride logo there. And I just sort of added on to that that, you know, I thought it was sad that groups like the LGBTQ community were being infected by Marxism also.
01:31:41.120So so apparently that was the thing. That's what they. So what happened was Kamala Harris's old social media outlet, which is, of course, the pure propaganda, put out a story on me saying that I was for persecuting gay people.
01:31:59.380So and it was based on that conversation.
01:32:02.900so you're fighting uh it sounds like cancel culture in your private life you're fighting
01:32:09.020some of these things obviously that this marxism thing as you mentioned dsa and
01:32:13.120and some of the uh the issues that democrats are having to deal with right now i think as as a
01:32:18.960country we're we're facing what's your what's your your your make on that what do you why do
01:32:24.440you think we're seeing such a rise in all of this right now look at barack obama he started off as
01:32:32.840a community organizer. The liberals, the progressives, they've always been good at
01:32:38.420organizing. The normal people, sorry, that's my contrast between the liberals. It's liberals and
01:32:47.560normal people. I represent normal people. Normal people don't tend to organize politically. They
01:32:53.860just get on with their lives. They go to work. They fall in love. They get married. They have
01:33:00.120kids they want to buy a house they want to have one good job to be enough to be able to you know
01:33:04.920take a vacation and you know you know have a little nice dinner on the weekends with the kids
01:33:11.560and and that's what normal people care about so they're not organized but at this point
01:33:17.420this crazy left swing uh they push so hard to the left and the the socialists and the communists
01:33:25.560and and now even in partnership with islamists these are philosophies of governance that are0.65
01:33:33.620antithetical to our constitution but they're making a hard hard push and what i would say0.95
01:33:40.160is the dumb democrats are actually saying hey our tent is big enough to include people who say0.96
01:33:45.500they want to burn down the tent uh and and i think it's going to wake up the the normals the normal0.99
01:33:52.200people who are not don't even consider themselves in a tent um they're going to wake up and say wait
01:33:58.320you folks are are threatening the way our lives are and we we're not going to take it anymore
01:34:04.720yeah i i really hope that what you're saying is is right um yeah people that have that have
01:34:13.460completely gone off the off the rails here are are running they're now running they're running
01:34:19.420the train and uh it's it's not only is it bad for obviously you know the the reasons that we're
01:34:26.520seeing play out here in politics but culturally i think we're we're losing touch um with a lot
01:34:32.700of things in reality and maybe you know marty your job was to kind of to get us to lose touch
01:34:37.260with reality in some ways but at the end of the day man we are got we've gone full into fantasy
01:34:43.300land haven't we yeah and it's funny because my uh career of my first career was uh in chicago i had
01:34:52.340a recording studio there and i i worked uh mostly doing commercial jingles uh so yeah mr clean mr
01:34:59.260clean and uh we are flintstones kids 10 million strong so uh i wrote i wrote produced that stuff
01:35:06.540And then my second career was in video game music and audio.
01:35:11.580The folks that grew up playing Halo, for example, or Destiny,
01:35:20.440now they've seen woke developers take over some of these franchises
01:35:26.980and start to preach at them with woke influences.
