00:00:38.280 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show. Thank you for joining us.
00:00:43.840 President Trump's campaign schedule is in full force.
00:00:46.860 Over the weekend, the president not only hosting a rally in Rome, Georgia,
00:00:51.360 where he mocked and humiliated puppet President Joe Biden,
00:00:54.840 for his weakness and incoherent ramblings in his State of the Union speech.
00:00:59.920 Two nights ago, we all heard Crooked Joe's angry, dark, hate-filled rant of a State of the Union address.
00:01:08.420 Wasn't it? Didn't it bring us together?
00:01:10.140 Remember, he said, I'm going to bring the country together.
00:01:14.420 I'm going to bring it together.
00:01:17.980 No, no.
00:01:19.480 He's a threat to democracy.
00:01:20.920 I will tell you, he's a threat to democracy, weaponized government, weaponized the FBI, weaponized the DOJ.
00:01:29.060 He's a threat to democracy for other reasons also. 0.94
00:01:32.380 Number one, he's grossly incompetent.
00:01:34.940 Joe Biden gave the most divisive, partisan, radical, and extreme speech ever delivered by a president in that chamber.
00:01:42.020 After wrapping up that rally Saturday, President Trump headed south to Miami to join his pal Dana White at the UFC fight.
00:01:52.160 President Trump, warmly greeted by the crowd of thousands, with daylight savings time taking effect,
00:01:58.140 President Trump stayed at the fights to the very conclusion, turned out to be three o'clock in the morning.
00:02:03.800 President Trump, truly a man of incredible strength and stamina.
00:02:08.520 And serial liar Adam Schiff on MSNBC's Meet the Press yesterday, or as I called it, Meet the Marxist,
00:02:16.160 Schiff was asked about President Trump getting intel briefings upon returning to the White House.
00:02:22.440 Congressman, let me ask you about this development this weekend.
00:02:25.960 U.S. intelligence officials are planning to provide briefings for Donald Trump once he, if he officially secures the nomination,
00:02:34.100 despite the fact that he's facing 40 felony charges for his handling of classified documents.
00:02:39.640 As the former chair of the House Intelligence Committee, do you think it's appropriate for him to receive intelligence briefings?
00:02:45.320 Well, that is the practice, but we've never had a situation where one of the candidates for president has been so criminally negligent
00:02:54.920 when it comes to handling, if not worse, when it comes to handling classified information.
00:02:58.900 So I have to hope, and knowing the intelligence community, as I do, that they will dumb down the briefing for Donald Trump.
00:03:05.800 That is, they will give him no more information than absolutely necessary, nothing that would reveal sources or methods,
00:03:11.720 because we can't trust that he will do the right thing with that information.
00:03:16.180 He's been so reckless.
00:03:18.160 So, yes, it does concern me.
00:03:19.840 It is part of a long tradition.
00:03:21.820 They will be wary of what they share with him, and they should.
00:03:25.280 Imagine that.
00:03:26.180 Schiff says we can't trust Trump with classified briefings.
00:03:29.560 Schiff is a man who's been lying for eight years about President Trump colluding with Russia, 0.97
00:03:34.340 a man who's been censured by his peers in Congress for being a pathological liar 0.97
00:03:39.140 and keeping top-secret material from Trump while letting the cognitively impaired Chinese-compromised Biden 0.85
00:03:46.320 not only have that intel, but have access to the nuclear codes.
00:03:51.480 You know, the Marxist-M cheat is already underway. 0.81
00:03:56.720 Folks, you know I beg everyone to get ready for the next crisis,
00:04:00.600 and when it comes, our lives will likely change overnight,
00:04:04.060 whether it's natural disaster, war, or another disease.
00:04:07.540 We have to be ready as we can be.
00:04:10.040 We saw what happened in 2020 when we found ourselves dependent on global supply chains.
00:04:14.960 We're still dependent on China and other countries for more than 90% of all our pharmaceuticals.
00:04:20.380 With clusters of respiratory illnesses popping up around the world and here,
00:04:24.840 we need to be prepared.
00:04:26.460 And now is the time to make certain you have what your family needs when the next crisis hits.

00:05:32.420 Republican Wyoming Senator John Barrasso says Joe Biden is sleeping with the enemy.
00:05:38.800 Department of Energy officials quietly met with members of the CCP
00:05:42.840 and its allies in China several times since October.
00:05:46.940 Barrasso made the allegations in a letter to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.
00:05:53.240 Biden officials allegedly offered, well, taxpayer-funded research and development of our national labs.
00:06:00.280 Isn't that a nice offer?
00:06:01.740 And the Biden administration is treating our economic and national security like a bargaining chip.
00:06:06.840 Our nation's most advanced technology being proffered to our nemesis.
00:06:11.320 And there's a word for that.
00:06:12.660 Meanwhile, the FBI says Iran is targeting Trump-era officials.
00:06:18.680 They're still sore about Donald Trump taking out Qasem Soleiman.
00:06:24.400 Trump neutralized the elite Iranian commander in 2020 with a drone strike.
00:06:29.940 The feds are seeking information about a man who they suspect is Iran's leading assassin.
00:06:36.540 President Trump's special envoy for Iran, Brian Hook, is on that hit list.
00:06:41.600 How's that for a contrast?
00:06:43.740 Biden is so soft on our enemies that they know they can play him and push him around,
00:06:49.540 and they don't fear Biden whatsoever.
00:06:52.980 Not like they did Donald Trump.
00:06:55.760 And joining us now is Mike Benz.
00:06:57.760 He's executive director of the Foundation for Freedom Online.
00:07:01.320 He's also an expert on international relations, foreign affairs, as well as cybersecurity.
00:07:07.300 And it is great to have you with us, Mike.
00:07:09.540 Mike, let's begin with where we are right now with Iran, where we are with this administration,
00:07:18.560 having secret meetings, and for what purpose?
00:07:22.660 And where is all of this leading in your judgment?
00:07:26.540 Yeah, it's really extraordinary, actually, the data points that you just put up on screen,
00:07:31.160 because it really gets to the Biden world's grand energy plays around everything from Ukraine to Iran to Qatar.
00:07:40.280 You know, there was this situation where a lot of people were very curious about the Obama administration's diplomacy with Iran
00:07:48.680 between the Iran, you know, it was referred to as the Iran nuclear deal, but it was actually an energy deal.
00:07:55.140 It was a relief of sanctions.
00:07:57.840 You know, theoretically, the idea was if you could stop Iran from developing a nuclear bomb,
00:08:02.820 and you could have them pinky promise that, then Iran would be able to open up its oil and gas for exports.
00:08:09.460 You know, Iran sits on the world's basically second and third largest supplies of oil and gas after the U.S.
00:08:16.300 and Russia, respectively.
00:08:18.860 So there is this untapped bounty for financial stakeholders to basically partner with Iran,
00:08:27.180 and as long as the U.S. sanctions could be done away with.
00:08:30.680 And that was basically what the Obama scheme was with the JCPOA,
00:08:34.840 the Joint Comprehensive Plan around nuclear weapons and energy.
00:08:40.220 And Trump did away with that deal on basically day one in office, setting up basically a collision course
00:08:47.240 with Trump's foreign policy and the financial investments that had already been made
00:08:52.700 by a coterie of oil and gas companies and investors who were anticipating Iran to spill open.
00:09:00.880 So, you know, a great example of this is an entity called the Atlantic Council.
00:09:04.240 The Atlantic Council is, you know, one of the biggest political, you know, backers within the think tank world of Joe Biden.
00:09:12.840 You know, they gave him a Distinguished Medal Award.
00:09:14.780 They have seven CIA directors on their board of directors.
00:09:18.860 They get annual funding from the Pentagon, the State Department, and CIA cutouts like the National Endowment for Democracy.
00:09:24.760 And they have been plotting for a very long time the ability to open up Iran's exports 0.62
00:09:30.400 and have Western energy companies basically swoop in.
00:09:34.200 Now, at the same time, they were planning this maximum pressure campaign against Russia
00:09:38.300 to kick Russian gas off of the European market.
00:09:42.340 Now, Trump basically reversed that, where he did maximum pressure on Iran
00:09:46.000 and relative neutrality with Russia with respect to energy relations,
00:09:50.240 which basically sent, you know, the Biden world's financial stakeholders into a tizzy.
00:09:54.740 And that's really what a lot of is driving this national security state versus Trump is.
00:10:01.080 And I want to turn to now that we are in deeply into the election season
00:10:07.040 and President Trump obviously headed toward being the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party.
00:10:14.180 There's great fear that we're going to see the Marxist Dems.
00:10:17.600 We're going to see the deep state once again assert themselves
00:10:20.040 and try to cheat Donald Trump once again out of his presidency.
00:10:24.200 Are you seeing any signs that that is particularly vigorous and energized right now?
00:10:31.100 What is your thinking about the response of the opposition party
00:10:36.900 and the Marxist Dems who mean to shut down this country?
00:10:41.540 Yeah, my main focus is on Internet censorship
00:10:44.120 and how elections can be rigged through essentially censoring opposition parties
00:10:48.560 or picking, you know, the state picking favorites on social media,
00:10:51.940 which is something that the United States Treasury sanctions foreign countries
00:10:56.080 and does not recognize elections as being free and fair unless there is both sides media access,
00:11:02.500 which is quite ironic given that the U.S. government has basically,
00:11:06.280 you know, should be sanctioned under its own diplomatic norms for what they did in 2020 and in the 2022 midterms.
00:11:12.620 But essentially what's happening right now is as the government's role in censorship is currently being litigated before the Supreme Court,
00:11:19.820 you know, oral arguments are underway in the Missouri v. Biden case,
00:11:22.760 which puts the government on trial, the federal government on trial for the 2020 election censorship operation.
00:11:29.500 They have now turned to the states.
00:11:31.240 So the state of Pennsylvania, under the governor there and under the Pennsylvania state secretaries of state's offices,
00:11:37.580 just set up a new misinformation unit to work directly with the Biden Department of Homeland Security
00:11:43.320 to access their domestic disinformation switchboard.
00:11:46.640 And we know the way that that tilts, that's going to be just mass flagging of pro-Trump tweets
00:11:52.040 and Facebook posts and YouTube videos all over the Internet,
00:11:56.420 calling basically anything pro-Trump to be misinformation.
00:11:59.700 We know Michigan just set up the same state level censorship cell.
00:12:03.920 The Michigan State Secretary of State's office bragged that they're working with six other battleground states
00:12:09.680 for basically a coalition network of state level censorship of pro-Trump tweets.
00:12:16.860 And, you know, if you add Michigan to plus six, that sounds like it's all seven battleground states
00:12:21.720 where you're going to have the literal state government engaged in a mass flagging operation
00:12:27.240 to try to stop the groundswell of domestic support for Donald Trump.
00:12:31.460 I just want to say one quick thing while we have time on the Iran thing, you know,
00:12:35.060 because you mentioned the role of China in this.
00:12:36.980 And it's quite extraordinary because it goes straight to the top with the Biden world.
00:12:40.840 Hunter Biden himself, we shouldn't forget this.
00:12:42.960 Iran signed a $400 billion trade agreement with China just two years ago, $400 billion with a B,
00:12:50.080 which was basically a, you know, a massive export plan for China to actually evade the U.S. sanctions on Iran
00:12:57.920 since there was no nuclear deal in place anymore.
00:13:00.600 So we don't enforce those sanctions against China.
00:13:03.920 So China had a get-out sanctions-free card worth $400 billion.
00:13:08.120 And who was partnered directly with one of the largest state oil and gas exporting
00:13:15.160 and processing companies in China for three-plus years recently that was revealed by the laptop scandal?
00:13:22.460 Hunter Biden was personally partnered with CEFC China Energy specifically on the export of gas
00:13:30.860 around liquefied natural gas, LNG.
00:13:32.680 And now you have a Chinese company who's carrying out the exports
00:13:38.660 without needing the congressional seal of approval of any sort of JCPOA 2.0.
00:13:44.760 So it looks like the same sort of Chinese benefactors to Biden world
00:13:49.400 are helping them basically go through with this backdoor Iran deal.
00:13:53.840 Mike Benz, thanks so much, and come back soon.
