The Great America Show - CAN A DEMOCRACY SURVIVE WITHOUT AN HONEST WORKING NEWS MEDIA？

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs, and welcome to The Great America Show.

00:00:04.260 Great to have you with us as we practice the doctrine of truth, justice, and the American way.

00:00:10.380 President Biden isn't completely given over to the American way, is he? Why would he deliver

00:00:16.420 all those executive orders, leave the border wide open, and invite into this great country of ours

00:00:23.200 illegal immigrants by the millions? And that's just in his first year and a half in office.

00:00:28.980 And doubling or even tripling that number in his second year. A little totalitarianism,

00:00:36.760 anyone? It's the way of the Marxist left who run this radical Democrat party. A week after the

00:00:43.660 Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and returned abortion to the states, which would have given

00:00:49.640 citizens and representatives in each state a vote on the matter. But no, Biden and his Marxist puppet

00:00:57.460 masters want the people to have absolutely no say on the issue of abortion. Biden is now proposing

00:01:05.740 that the Marxist Dems codify Roe v. Wade, put it into federal law, and that's that. Biden intends to

00:01:14.240 deny voters in each of the states no say whatsoever in their government. No vote on abortion. He'll just

00:01:23.240 take care of that at the federal level. The Supreme Court didn't kill abortion, remember? They killed

00:01:30.340 Roe v. Wade, which then returned the issue to where it properly belongs, to the states, for you and me

00:01:38.000 and our fellow citizens, the people and our elected representatives, to vote on the issue of abortion.

00:01:44.060 But of course, that is the last thing that Biden wants to give us, the people, we the people,

00:01:51.380 a vote on anything. Abortion, prayers in public, you name it. The Marxist Dems mean to destroy freedom,

00:01:58.620 family, faith, and this great nation. And don't doubt it for a minute. And guns. While the Supreme Court

00:02:04.920 was supporting the Second Amendment, overturning a New York state law that restricted concealed carry of

00:02:11.120 handguns, Biden and the Senate's liberal rhinos were undercutting our right to bear arms by passing

00:02:18.140 and signing into law a new gun control law that incentivized states to pass red flag laws, denying

00:02:25.500 due process in nearly every instance. To take up all of this, our guest is our friend and great American,

00:02:32.880 Mark Simone, nationally syndicated radio host, podcaster, broadcasting legend, of course,

00:02:38.820 and Mr. New York himself. Mark, thanks for being with us. Mitch McConnell and John Cornyn and the

00:02:45.560 other Mitt Romney rhinos aligned with the Schumer Marxist Dems. Well, they got to pass gun control.

00:02:52.300 Your thoughts? Well, it depends what you mean by rhinos. I know what rhinos are, but then you got,

00:02:57.960 you got a whole new breed from the Liz Cheney's to the, I mean, it's true. It's all blurred together.

00:03:04.880 It's awful. You know, I, I just think that's astonishing that we are sitting here looking at

00:03:10.840 a prospect of amnesty and, and the, and the Cornyn creeps, uh, sitting here just saying the heck

00:03:19.840 with the Second Amendment and our constitutional rights and everybody being just fine with that.

00:03:24.620 Yeah. You know, but it goes back to what I was like. If I see Jim Jordan, that looks like a Republican.

00:03:29.700 When you, when you say Mitch McConnell, that's not anything Republican Democrat, that is like a,

00:03:35.800 just a swamp machine. I don't know what he is. He's not, uh, uh, I mean, I just don't look at him

00:03:42.300 and I mean, you can't sleep at night looking at this guy. I wouldn't trust him for anything,

00:03:47.400 uh, or, or Cornyn. Yeah. Either one of them. And they're despicable. I mean, think about it.

00:03:53.220 Two senators from the great state of Texas, uh, John Cornyn, the crone and Ted Cruz. I mean, they,

00:04:01.520 they're in the same party. They're in the same state. You couldn't ask for more divergence of

00:04:07.760 values and talent and intellect, uh, than between those two. And one's a rhino and one's a great

00:04:16.420 conservative American. I it's, it's stunning the difference. Yeah. But you know, when I first used

00:04:21.880 to watch you, I thought you were getting a little carry with the swamp and the, um, the machine.

00:04:26.380 And now I see it. You were right all along. I mean, the business round table, the chamber of

00:04:31.920 commerce, the lobbyists controlling everything. Uh, I mean, did anybody think if you did surgery

00:04:39.040 on McConnell, you'd find any principle in that body anywhere. It's just, uh, uh, whatever way the

00:04:44.300 wind's blowing, whatever the swamp wants is that the border is the classic example. Uh, you know,

00:04:49.900 you got that awful Davos crowd and, uh, who knows what hooks they've got in the Mitch McConnell

00:04:55.140 and these people. Uh, uh, I mean, the most, you, you, you were the one saying it before anybody.

00:05:00.660 What's the first thing you need to have a country, a border. That's what makes it a country. The fact

00:05:06.400 that you have a border. Yeah. And, and Texas, they have a little experience with that sort of thing.

00:05:11.960 Uh, remember the Alamo. Uh, and meanwhile, uh, you know, as you point out, uh, about how correct

00:05:19.180 I've always been about almost everything. Uh, I, I, I wish I had been wrong. I mean, I really do.

00:05:27.260 It's one of those things. I wish I had been wrong because we are now facing a, an existential,

00:05:34.780 existential moment. We don't have a border. We have millions of illegal immigrants, uh, uh,

00:05:41.780 pouring across that border. We're going to have millions more because of this, uh, Marxist dim

00:05:46.660 puppet in the white house and a Republican party that nobody wants to offend Kevin McCarthy or Mitch

00:05:55.320 McConnell. You said, what is Mitch McConnell? Mitch McConnell is on loan from the CCP and the

00:06:02.580 people's Republic of China. That's who he is because there's no other explanation for a man who wants to

00:06:09.600 disarm every American, uh, who wants, uh, amnesty and who just sits around with a, with a, what looks

00:06:16.840 like, uh, uh, uh, you know, a bunch of mannequins around him. Think about it. Uh, this, you know,

00:06:23.780 Thune, uh, Barrasso, uh, what's the name of the Senator from Iowa? Her name, uh, eludes me right now.

00:06:33.060 Yeah. Uh, it's just, it's just a cast of mediocrities and, and utter fools. Uh, and I, and I'm looking

00:06:41.600 here at Tom Tillis, the Senator Blunt, Rob Portman, uh, Richard Burr. Oh, Mitt, Mitt Romney is in the

00:06:50.580 crowd. Uh, Cassidy of Louisiana, Collins, naturally Collins and Lindsey Graham, bless his smiling little

00:06:57.840 face. And Oh, go. Yeah. Pat Toomey, several of them retiring this year, none of them running for

00:07:03.940 reelection. So that's who they went to. Yeah. It's disgusting. Well, I've never seen, uh, people

00:07:09.960 like this. Uh, you don't see this in real life, Mitt Romney or Lindsey Graham, or they love Donald

00:07:15.040 Trump. Now they hate Donald Trump. Uh, now they love him again. Now they hate him again. They're, uh,

00:07:20.440 I don't know what motivates them. Is it money? Is it power? Uh, is it all of the above, uh, Mitch McConnell's a

00:07:27.480 classic example? Uh, his wife's tangled up with China, her family, he's tangled up with who knows

00:07:33.060 what interests. And, uh, I don't know what we, I mean, the only answer to this is get rid of all

00:07:37.200 of them and send private citizens into these positions in Washington. But I think that's one

00:07:42.980 reason there's trying to take out Donald Trump, uh, just to send a message to any other CEOs or

00:07:48.400 private citizens that are thinking ahead and into the swamp that you're next. So, uh, it's, it's the

00:07:54.300 worst situation we could be in. It is, it really is. And with a landslide, a wave election predicted

00:08:01.240 now by, if not most many, uh, political strategists for this November for the Republican party,

00:08:08.940 you have McConnell and Cornyn and the creeps, uh, that I just mentioned, uh, who are selling out the

00:08:16.040 party. Uh, they're going to, I don't know how badly, but it will diminish the vote for Republicans

00:08:21.900 because a lot of people are going to say, really, you've, you've screwed us again. And we're supposed

00:08:26.700 to go vote for the Republican party. Despite the fact that you're led by a bunch of, uh, uh, numbskulls,

00:08:32.780 uh, like, uh, Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy. I, it's absurd. Uh, if they just kept their mouths

00:08:41.380 shut, but they were too eager to, to reach across the aisle, as they say, and, uh, clasp hands with an

00:08:47.760 impaired president and, and, you know, let's just have a little amnesty and a little, uh, let's get

00:08:53.920 rid of a little thing like a second amendment. You can't make these idiots up. Yeah. Also, they don't

00:09:00.920 just show up and vote and there's a landslide. You got to have like Newt Gingrich had a contract with

00:09:05.320 America. You have to make these fiery speeches and you have to put out a brilliant contract with

00:09:10.160 America. And I don't, obviously Mitch McConnell, I can't do that. Uh, and Kevin McCarthy, uh, is not

00:09:17.440 going to make any fiery speech or get anything done. You know, he just looks like, uh, when you

00:09:21.320 have a problem at the gate at the airport and the man, the manager comes out and then this useless

00:09:25.540 looking middle management guy comes out. That's what Kevin McCarthy looks like to me. Just useless

00:09:30.280 middle management. Uh, useless, uh, certainly, uh, middle management. Uh, he wants to be speaker of

00:09:36.280 the house. I noticed that president Trump today though said, Whoa, I haven't endorsed him for speaker

00:09:42.260 and I'm not too sure. I want to, uh, they have a little dispute about why, why no one is defending

00:09:50.120 president Trump against this ignorant Soviet style show, uh, show committee, the January 6th

00:09:57.980 committee. Uh, and he's right. President Trump's right. The Republicans never defend him. Uh, and he

00:10:04.420 led the party to its greatest success in decades, in decades. You have to go back, I think to Eisenhower

00:10:10.740 to find anything well to Reagan, then to Eisenhower to find anything comparable. Yeah. You know, uh,

00:10:18.380 under the law, the speaker of the house can be anybody. It doesn't have to be, uh, anybody in

00:10:23.220 the house. It could be a private citizen. They can nominate anybody speaker of the house, even

00:10:27.480 Donald Trump, which would be something I'd like to see. Imagine if Donald Trump became speaker of the

00:10:32.320 house and then you impeach Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for running a smuggling operation at the

00:10:38.120 border of those planes flying into airports in the middle of the night. Right. Right. Uh, you get rid

00:10:43.680 of both of them and Trump is the president that way. Well, I, it would work for me. Let's, I'll sign

00:10:49.760 it up. Uh, let's get it done because I, can you imagine, uh, if this moronic Marxist in the white

00:10:58.080 house, this puppet, uh, were to somehow be forced out by Obama and the other Marxist Dems that run the

00:11:06.160 white house, then you've got Kamala Harris who has the knowledge base of a squirrel, by the way,

00:11:13.840 a commensurate level of giggling. Uh, what in the world would we, what would we do? I mean,

00:11:20.440 I've never seen two officials of the United States government, the top two officials, this bad, this,

00:11:27.200 this disgustingly, uh, ignorant of what is going on. Uh, and, and this lazy, frankly, it's just,

00:11:37.340 it's just, it's impossible to conjure this up unless you are really, really, uh, committed to

00:11:44.880 the destruction of America. Yeah. You know, we've, uh, criticized Obama, criticize, uh, you can

00:11:50.760 criticize all these presidents, but then people will argue they're not as bad as you. In this case,

00:11:54.720 there's no argument because these two have brutalized every American. They have put them

00:12:00.600 in grave danger, crime all over the streets. It's not just the big cities. Now we're seeing crime

00:12:05.520 waves in suburbs, rural areas. So everybody's life is in danger because of these two. And then

00:12:10.620 they've, it's the most brutal attack I've ever seen on people's pocketbooks, budgets, uh, savings

00:12:16.500 with the, with the inflation of gas prices. I got to think that the polls aren't even measuring

00:12:21.460 the anger that's going to be out there against the Democrats. I would, I would hope so because

00:12:26.600 otherwise we have a, we have a comatose society in this country where people are so numb and

00:12:32.560 desensitized to their own needs, to their, to the obligations of government toward them. Uh, and by the

00:12:39.880 way, that does not include satisfying their dependency, uh, for sustenance from the federal

00:12:45.640 government, as the Democrats like to suggest, but it does mean some basics like having a border,

00:12:51.820 securing the border, not letting drug cartels manage both sides of the border, uh, no longer

00:12:57.580 permit sex trafficking of American children and women. Uh, don't, uh, permit human smuggling.

00:13:03.620 Don't permit deadly drugs like fentanyl that claims a hundred thousand lost a year, a hundred

00:13:09.060 thousand Americans a year. Nobody's saying a word about it, Mark. What, what is wrong with us?

00:13:13.900 What is wrong with America when we can just sort of with a wave of our hand dismiss as collateral

00:13:21.140 damage, a hundred thousand American lives because China wanted to bring in fentanyl through Mexico?

00:13:28.160 Well, it all comes down to one answer, corrupt media. The media always was a little biased. Now it's

00:13:33.980 totally corrupt. If people saw that story on the news every night, something would happen. Even this

00:13:39.500 smuggling operation where they fight administration is loading people into planes illegally.

00:13:44.520 Landing at closed airports in the middle of the night, not pulling up to the terminal, taking them way to the end

00:13:50.360 of the runway where they're loaded on buses. If Donald, imagine if Donald Trump did this, it'd be the lead

00:13:55.300 story every night. It would never stop, uh, here up in Westchester County, local police confronted these

00:14:02.280 guys, the security on the plane. You can see it in the body camera footage, private security company. They said,

00:14:07.040 we're not allowed to identify ourselves to you. It's a smuggling operation. The media just keeps

00:14:12.360 quiet about this and doesn't say a word. And that's why these, uh, crazy, uh, Dems are able to get away

00:14:19.080 with everything right now.

00:14:20.480 They do. They get away with everything. Uh, Peter Navarro, special assistant to the president,

00:14:26.620 head of his trade policy, uh, for a period of time, uh, you know, a, a, a public servant, uh, worked for

00:14:34.940 the president four years and he suddenly ends up handcuffed and in leg irons, thanks to the FBI, which is

00:14:42.280 nothing more than the, they're the, uh, the modern version of the, of the SS working for the Marxist Dems. Uh,

00:14:52.380 maybe the Stasi would be better than the Nazis. I don't know, but either way, uh, it's, it is just outrageous.

00:15:00.020 This is an America that we're talking about here when you can pick up because he, he refused to

00:15:06.440 subpoena from the January six committee, which is a Stalinist, uh, creation. And suddenly he doesn't

00:15:13.540 have any rights as an American. This is not America. And, and the national news, they tell it, you turn

00:15:19.460 on your TV and these idiots are just talking about it. Like it's just another story. All has the same

00:15:25.600 weight, same proportion, same, uh, uh, effect. Uh, it's, it's nuts what the media is doing.

00:15:32.620 Yeah. It's total corruption. And people forget that a lot of people have been in contempt of

00:15:36.940 Congress. Uh, uh, Janet Reno was in contempt of Congress. Eric Holder was in contempt of Congress.

00:15:41.900 Imagine if they put Holder in chains to bring them in leg irons. Yeah. Yep.

00:15:47.740 He'd never hear the end of it. Nope. And you should, you know, and when no one will even make the

00:15:53.380 comparison, uh, it's, I, I hope when people are watching Joe and Mika or Micah or whatever

00:16:00.640 heck her name is, uh, when they're watching Joy Reed and, uh, uh, Jake Tapper and, uh, what's

00:16:07.700 his name? Don Lemon. I hope people ask themselves, do any of these people know anything? Do they

00:16:14.360 know what they're talking about? Why aren't they talking about important issues like indoctrination

00:16:20.840 of, uh, children about, uh, gender identity in the, in kindergarten and through third grade?

00:16:27.240 Oh, why, why would we want to have a sex discussion with young people and who would insist upon it?

00:16:33.540 I mean, we've got an administration that is demanding it and tying financial incentives to

00:16:39.500 it, uh, across the country. This is a sick attack on American youth as well as every other aspect

00:16:49.120 of America by this administration and the radical Dems that Marxist Dems who run the democratic

00:16:56.540 party. And there isn't a peep. There isn't a peep from the national media, the corporate

00:17:01.900 national media. Yeah. You know, the problem is again, media was always biased, but when they

00:17:07.300 got to Trump, they were so angered. They took the gloves off and said, we'll do whatever we have

00:17:11.980 to do to get this. And they did, but I think it never goes back. Everybody thought it was just a

00:17:16.780 little cycle here, but they saw how effective this, uh, destruction machine is that they created.

00:17:21.800 And I think they're going to keep it this way. Whatever Republican comes along will get hit with

00:17:26.780 this. And I don't know how you stop it, but somebody is going to have to outlaw this kind

00:17:31.800 of collusion between the Dems and the media. Well, with Mitch McConnell running the Republican

00:17:37.340 party in the Senate with Kevin McCarthy, running it in the house, Ronald McDaniel running it at the

00:17:43.060 RNC, you know, which one of those Republican leaders do you think we should, uh, should

00:17:49.280 we count on them? Uh, which one first? I mean, I couldn't even put them in order because they're

00:17:53.940 so pathetic. All right. It was a stupid point. I wouldn't count on any of them. I wouldn't

00:18:00.080 let them, I wouldn't let Mitch McConnell put a quarter in a parking meter for me. I wouldn't

00:18:04.000 trust them at all. Well, let's, you know, talking about the, those radical Dems, Jamie Raskin

00:18:11.420 saying he's inside president Trump's head. Now think about that. This is what a guy who

00:18:17.620 with Adam Schiff led to impeachment efforts by the democratic party. He was part of the

00:18:24.020 conspiracy, uh, to carry out the Hillary Clinton, uh, uh, disinformation campaign that there was

00:18:32.400 Russian collusion. They did it for a period of six years and got away with it. But he was

00:18:38.380 the one saying that he, he being Adam Schiff had evidence, remember for two years? Well,

00:18:45.500 guess what? He's saying now he's got more evidence that Trump was involved in the fake

00:18:50.560 elector plot. He doesn't want to put that out there yet because he's holding it back just

00:18:54.760 like he did in the impeachments. Uh, we're watching some of the sickest people in this country

00:19:00.540 and they're all Democrats. Uh, Jamie Raskin saying he's inside Trump's head and he understands his,

00:19:05.900 uh, power lust. These are absolute creeps with the oddest, the oddest perspectives and,

00:19:13.500 and global views of themselves and their role. It's, it's just disgusting. I want to,

00:19:20.400 I want everybody to listen to Jamie Raskin talking about being inside Donald Trump. Now think about

00:19:28.000 this. Why is Donald Trump even relevant here? Being inside Donald Trump's head.

00:19:34.540 Some, uh, some tough constitutional patriots who say, no, we see some other people who capitulate

00:19:41.600 and are willing to do anything in the interest of advancing Donald Trump's ambitions in their own

00:19:47.140 power. One through line that, that connects yesterday's testimony that was revealing to me

00:19:52.100 yesterday and tomorrow, as we'll see, I think is, I just say I, we've spent as much time as anyone

00:19:57.680 reporting on this, I think, and thinking about it. And it is still surprising to me

00:20:02.300 the scope and systematic nature of the various attempts that the, the, just the, the, the thing

00:20:10.380 that you guys showed about the calls to the state legislators, the calls every day, the voicemails,

00:20:15.480 it, it was not grasping at straws. You know, it wasn't, uh, wasn't a temper tantrum. Did you

00:20:23.500 understand how systematic, how broad, how, you know, targeted this entire effort was before

00:20:30.600 turning into this investigation?

00:20:35.300 Um, well, I had an inkling of it, uh, because he did leave no stone unturned. And, uh, within the

00:20:43.360 creaky antiquated electoral college system, um, there are a lot of nooks and crannies and opportunities

00:20:49.560 for a bad faith actor like Donald Trump to plant a lot of booby traps. Um, and that's precisely what

00:20:56.720 he did. So, you know, I had thought about trying to identify the various decision points and junctures

00:21:03.740 within the electoral college. And sure enough, he was at all of them, uh, trying to have his way and

00:21:09.180 to usurp the will of the people and substitute his own political will. And, uh, it is sort of shocking

00:21:16.060 when you step back and look at it. I guess that the sad thing for me is that I've entered so much

00:21:21.600 in Donald Trump's head that, uh, I can see exactly where he's going to go in the next move. I mean,

00:21:27.580 he has a real bloodthirst for power.

00:21:31.000 A bloodthirst for power, Mark. You know, it was a long way to get to the point, but I have to say,

00:21:37.440 uh, he goes, talks about the nooks and crannies of the, uh, antiquated, uh, electoral system.

00:21:44.400 He didn't notice. He didn't mention a single nook or a single cranny, uh, as if he's some sort of

00:21:49.640 lurking, uh, genius, uh, decoding what Donald Trump has divined and planned, uh, as these people

00:22:00.700 pursue him relentlessly for six years, the man is absolutely ridiculous.

00:22:05.680 You don't want to get into Donald Trump's head. It's very crowded in there. You want to be in

00:22:09.880 Joe Biden's head, plenty of room. You can stretch out, uh, in that head, there's nothing in there,

00:22:14.660 but, uh, you know, to say that I know how to read Donald Trump, I can tell what he's really

00:22:20.820 thinking. Nobody has to worry about that. Donald Trump will tell you what he's thinking. I've never

00:22:24.620 heard a guy so blunt and honest. He'll blurt out whatever he's thinking. It doesn't take any

00:22:28.620 power to say, Hey, by the way, on my Twitter, I have a video. Uh, I know again, the media doesn't

00:22:34.020 show this it's 2016. It's Jamie Raskin trying to stop the electoral vote. He raises an objection

00:22:40.720 to the electoral count. Uh, he tries to get electoral votes thrown. He did exactly what

00:22:46.060 he's accusing Donald Trump of. Yeah. And that's what they do time and time again. The first

00:22:51.000 time I heard somebody say, when you listen to the Democrats accuse the Republicans of

00:22:54.920 something, be sure that that's what they're doing. I thought, Oh, come on. That's a little

00:22:58.620 pat, a little glib. You know, it may be pat and glib, but the fact is it's true. Uh, it is the,

00:23:04.880 it is the darndest thing to watch these people operate because they tell you what they're going to

00:23:10.180 do, what they're doing. And I'll be doggone if they're not doing it, whether it is trying to

00:23:16.300 overthrow a president, whether it is pushing a phony Russian collusion, uh, disinformation campaign

00:23:22.260 against the entire American, you know, public, uh, they have no boundaries whatsoever. Uh, and here

00:23:31.440 we go with Schiff again, as I said, claiming to have proof that Trump was involved in a fake

00:23:37.160 elector plot. Schiff is such a snake and creep. He couldn't, he couldn't exist except, uh, in the

00:23:47.280 modern, uh, Marxist democratic party. Yeah. But, uh, George Stephanopoulos, Chuck Todd, uh, all these

00:23:53.880 guys are just as creepy because I remember he was on their shows on a Sunday morning and they each said

00:23:59.480 to him, you, you actually have your own proof. Yes, I have proof of the Russian collusion. And they never

00:24:04.940 again mentioned it. They don't run these clips now. And he's been on the shows recently. They haven't

00:24:09.800 hit him with this clips and asked him to explain this. The media lets him get away with it. Uh, it's just

00:24:15.840 total corruption of the media. And how does a democracy survive without a working news media?

00:24:21.060 How's it going to ever survive that? Well, we've, we're about to find out because we haven't had one

00:24:26.920 for, uh, for well over, uh, well, just about seven years. Uh, there's no element of the national

00:24:34.620 corporate news media, uh, that is reserved from this madness that has gripped the Democrat party,

00:24:42.740 uh, and it's Marxist Dem leadership. It's, I can't think of a single journalist. Uh, I mean,

00:24:50.080 who, who, which, what, which anchor sitting on any one of these net broadcast network shows

00:24:55.860 would you want to get your truth from? I can't think of one. Can you Mark? Uh, uh, you, that's

00:25:05.080 the list. Well, I, I reserved myself for podcasting. That's about it. It's, it is

00:25:12.560 stunning. Where do you go for the truth? Because you sure as hell are not going to get it on broadcast

00:25:18.220 news. You're not going to get it on cable news. And it's that simple. It is just, and, and that

00:25:24.880 tragic. When, when I look at, uh, you know, the, when, when you've got an economic advisor,

00:25:31.720 economics, I admit is dull, but when you've got, we got people denying that Jerome Powell contradicted

00:25:40.300 president Biden and saying the Ukraine war is not the main cause of inflation. I mean, I,

00:25:45.920 that's actually what happened. Uh, one of the white house folks was saying just point blank

00:25:51.080 didn't happen. And yet federal reserve, uh, chairman Jerome Powell, quote unquote,

00:25:56.920 was certainly, certainly high, uh, before Putin's war on, uh, inflation was certainly high

00:26:04.700 before the war in Ukraine. And, and that's exactly the opposite of what Biden wants anyone

00:26:10.800 saying, particularly the, you know, the federal reserve people contradict this guy every day.

00:26:16.260 Suddenly they're trying to tell people they didn't contradict that. The truth is what we

00:26:21.260 say it is. I, they really need a, they, they really need a ministry of truth or a, a disinformation

00:26:27.680 governance board. Don't you think to, to remind people what truth really is?

00:26:31.840 I mean, that would be perfect, but well, you know, the other thing is, uh, Biden keeps trying

00:26:37.440 to say the Ukraine war drove up the price. It's the opposite. Biden caused Putin and caused the

00:26:44.160 Ukraine, you know, the Russia is a gas station with an army, as they say, the price of oil

00:26:49.460 determines their economy and the rise in the price of gas has put an extra $600 billion in cash into

00:26:57.000 Putin's pocket there to pay for all these tanks and all these planes. That's why he's able to keep

00:27:01.520 this war going without that extra 600 billion. Remember just before this, uh, price hike in

00:27:06.100 gas, uh, Russia's economy was suffering. I don't know if you would have been able to maintain the

00:27:10.180 war this long. It's, it's one thing is clear that it's all going Putin's way. And these sanctions

00:27:15.340 that, uh, the clever Biden administration has put on, uh, on Putin, by the way, they didn't notice

00:27:22.380 that everybody had sanctions on, on Putin right now, the ruble, in addition to the hundreds of

00:27:29.180 billions of dollars that the Biden administration has put in Vladimir's pocket, uh, the ruble is

00:27:35.900 at a seven year high. Uh, you're going to see Vladimir Putin do a, an address to the nation

00:27:43.080 begging Joe Biden to put some more sanctions on if he, you know, please a little more. We,

00:27:50.980 we really need it. These people are so stupid in this administration. It's just breathtaking.

00:27:57.040 Janet Yellen, who spent, uh, last year telling everybody inflation was quote unquote transitory

00:28:04.320 or temporary. Uh, it's just an abject loss in the role of treasury secretary. She did a respectable

00:28:13.740 job, I think as a fed, uh, chair, but it's just, to me, it's incomprehensible that you could have an

00:28:23.340 administration that actually pushed Putin into war instead of stopping war, which once there was a

00:28:31.140 war, wouldn't let Zelensky negotiate a truce. And now we have a war that is months longer than it

00:28:39.960 need have been devastation and death that need to have happened. And it's all because of Joe Biden

00:28:46.240 in his idiotic foreign policy. He intervened in the wrong ways in the wrong place with the wrong

00:28:52.580 purpose with Putin and with Zelensky throughout the past year of his administration.

00:29:00.680 You know, there was a line in the speech yesterday where he said, we couldn't sit back and let Russian

00:29:04.940 tanks roll into the Ukraine. Why isn't that all the lead story in the news with video of the tanks

00:29:10.840 having rolled around the Ukraine for three, four months, they've already torn up every piece of

00:29:14.900 road in the Ukraine. How can he get away with that line? Uh, national corporatist media and they're

00:29:21.380 going to keep it up. The media they're going, they're not, they don't even understand what's

00:29:25.640 happening. There's not a foreign policy expert on the national news, the national corporate news

00:29:31.760 who's speaking truth about this administration. Not a one think about that. Not a one is critical of

00:29:39.320 this president having effectively, uh, failed to stop the war, done everything he could

00:29:45.480 diplomatically to stop the war or to end it. This is a, in fact, a president who wanted to

00:29:52.400 talk about the number of American soldiers going in. He was describing the scenery that they would see

00:29:58.180 when, uh, the 82nd airborne rolled into, uh, Ukraine. Uh, this is madness and we don't have a,

00:30:06.120 uh, in any way, a governor on any of it. Uh, it's just full firehouse flow, uh, emanating from the

00:30:13.480 white house. Uh, this is just a laughable circus of clowns. This Biden administration, except for the

00:30:20.160 fact that they're destroying America. Yeah. And the whole cabinet, totally incompetent, grand home

00:30:24.940 incompetent, uh, Buttigieg, uh, the two things he's responsible for are completely screwed up the

00:30:30.280 supply chain and our airports are completely, uh, clogged up. Uh, and I hate to say it, this is,

00:30:36.080 we're not even two years into this, two more years of this. I don't know. This could just be

00:30:40.340 the beginning of this downfall. You know, there's, uh, reports that we could end up with a total

00:30:45.660 shortage of diesel fuel that could stop every truck in America. Uh, that, that would be the

00:30:50.720 worst moment in American history. Yes, it would. And we're already on the verge. Let me share with

00:30:56.860 you what I'm hearing. And that is that truck stops. Some of them are running out of diesel fuel.

00:31:01.980 Some are rationing diesel fuel, limiting those big semi trucks that, uh, most of them carry 300,

00:31:08.340 uh, gallons of fuel. Uh, they can't have, but 150 gallons now at each, uh, fill up. We're,

00:31:18.460 we're getting very close to what this president deserves. And we're getting very far from what America

00:31:26.200 deserves, which is a prosperous economy and intelligent leadership. Uh, and, and by the

00:31:33.800 way, to push every Marxist out of every position of responsibility in this society and certainly

00:31:38.620 this government. Yeah. Uh, I mean, no diesel fuel, no trucks means nobody will be able to get anything.

00:31:44.480 And when people start to realize, hopefully they will, that the diesel, the fuel, the oil,

00:31:49.020 the gas we need is right under our feet. All we got to do is drill it. Uh, this is the only country

00:31:53.600 in the history of the world that could be totally energy independent, but doesn't bother to do it

00:31:57.620 anymore. Isn't that, isn't that something we, we have a president so hateful of America,

00:32:05.940 so anti-America that he would take us from energy independence to dependence on Iran, on, uh, the

00:32:15.780 Venezuela, uh, and OPEC, uh, and add only more to the inflation rate that he has created. It's,

00:32:26.220 it is, as I said, it's, it's an incomprehensible on any other basis than this administration has

00:32:33.400 declared war on America and every American, uh, who is working, uh, to move ahead and to

00:32:40.960 make this country better. Uh, it is, uh, every Patriot is threatened in this moment. And you

00:32:48.040 know what? I can't understand either, Mark, and maybe you can help me here. Why would

00:32:52.700 even these rhino fools at this moment in our history want to take away guns from the American

00:33:01.040 people? Why, why would they want red flag laws? Because it becomes, see something, say something,

00:33:09.100 uh, and you don't have due process. You don't have the right to defend yourself. They simply

00:33:14.340 confiscate your guns. Why would we tolerate that in America? And it's going almost without comment.

00:33:21.100 Well, you got these, uh, these old rhinos, uh, they're just, it's either total corruption or

00:33:25.600 total fear. You see it on both sides too. Even a guy like Chuck Schumer, he's been there 50 years.

00:33:30.340 He's the elder statesman. He should be the guy running. He quaking and shivering and terrified of

00:33:36.720 AOC. Suddenly he's pretending he's a crazy, a woke, uh, liberal. He's not same thing with, uh,

00:33:42.440 uh, Maloney and other, uh, even Pelosi. I don't think that he's crazy woke nuts. They're just

00:33:47.820 terrified of AOC and pretending to be, and you got Republicans just pretending to be, uh, whatever

00:33:52.960 they have to be to get along with the swamp. Pretending to be everything, but courageous and,

00:33:59.480 uh, patriotic, uh, public servants, unfortunately. Mark, you get the last word here,

00:34:06.280 as always, uh, as we always give our guests that opportunity. Uh, thanks for being with

00:34:11.740 us today. Uh, the concluding remarks are yours. I, everything we just said sounds like doom

00:34:17.260 and gloom and could get worse, but I always just, uh, we, Hey, we got through Jimmy Carter.

00:34:21.180 Uh, uh, America always comes back, always bounces back. We'll get through this. And, uh, uh, I can't

00:34:29.020 wait to see a president 47, uh, DJT will be the initials. Absolutely.

00:34:35.520 From your lips to God's ears. Mark. Thanks so much. Great talking with you. Thanks for being

00:34:41.260 with us here on the great America show. Thanks. Thanks everybody for being with us. Our guests

00:34:46.600 next week include general Mike Flynn, Congressman Daryl Issa, just the news founder and CEO John

00:34:53.440 Solomon, Missouri's attorney general, Eric Smith, attorney Kurt Olson, GOP pollster and strategist,

00:35:01.000 John McLaughlin and Dr. Oz. And until then happy independence day and God bless you. And God bless America.
