The Great America Show - GORDON CHANG SAYS FAUCI FUNDED CREATION OF COVID 19. JOHN MC LAUGHLIN SAYS 2024 ELECTION IS THE EXISTENTIAL BATTLE FOR AMERICA’S FUTURE

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.

00:00:03.080 I'm Lou Dobbs, happy to have you with us.

00:00:05.780 With all that's happening in these wild and uncertain times in our country right now,

00:00:11.060 it's easy to miss the sometimes small or shadowed events that could change our lives in America.

00:00:17.560 Easy for any of us to not notice that Communist China is buying up strategic assets in the United States,

00:00:24.640 whether farmland or pork processing plants, or any number of businesses we don't know about

00:00:31.220 simply because the Biden regime might have simply forgotten to tell us.

00:00:36.100 And it's also easy for us to lose sight of what's happening out there in other parts of the planet

00:00:41.520 that may well change the world we live in.

00:00:45.100 Communist China is not so quietly sending spy balloons overhead and loudly threatening Taiwan

00:00:52.920 and even Western civilization as a whole.

00:00:56.700 And Xi Jinping has rather boldly made himself the Chinese leader for life,

00:01:02.040 a perfect dictator of a massive totalitarian state that is supported enthusiastically,

00:01:08.840 but for the most part quietly, by the globalist elites in this country,

00:01:13.520 corporate CEOs and boards, Marxist Democrats and Marxist academics

00:01:18.340 and Marxist media and technology companies,

00:01:21.260 all greatly taken by the fierce efficiency and mountainous scale of Communist China

00:01:27.640 and its ever-larger ambitions for China's role in global governance.

00:01:33.560 Xi won a shuddering, transformational, diplomatic victory in the Mideast

00:01:38.220 when he mediated and shaped an all-but-unimaginable alliance between Saudi Arabia and Iran.

00:01:44.740 Xi Jinping, unimaginable at least to the Biden regime and even more unimaginable to the Elf and Biden team

00:01:52.240 is what could lie ahead, what could establish Xi's position as leader of a new world order.

00:02:00.240 That is what may come as a result of his upcoming visit to Moscow

00:02:05.520 and talks with his strategic partner Vladimir Putin.

00:02:09.020 Perhaps a truce in the Russian war against Ukraine.

00:02:13.380 It is possible, no more than that.

00:02:16.120 But if it does come to pass, Biden is no longer leader of the free world

00:02:20.180 and the world order will be altogether a different geopolitical construction.

00:02:26.420 Our guests today are China expert Gordon Chang

00:02:29.160 and political analyst, consultant and pollster John McLaughlin

00:02:32.520 for the external and the internal views of what is happening in our country

00:02:37.520 and outside our country.

00:02:39.740 We turn now to Gordon Chang, radio host, author, Asia expert.

00:02:44.380 Great to have you with us, Gordon.

00:02:46.280 Xi, on his way to Moscow, Russia's war against Ukraine intensifying.

00:02:51.460 The China virus did originate in Wuhan, says our Energy Department intel agency.

00:02:57.020 And our intelligence agencies, all of them, it turns out, knew it in April of 2020.

00:03:04.900 What is going on?

00:03:07.060 Well, the U.S. intelligence community, Lou, has 18 constituent parts

00:03:11.060 and the Energy Department is one of them.

00:03:14.660 And the IC, as it's called, doesn't agree among themselves.

00:03:19.760 But the Energy Department came around to the view

00:03:22.460 that COVID-19 was the result of a lab leak.

00:03:26.660 And that certainly is right, I believe.

00:03:30.340 There's just too much evidence to the contrary.

00:03:32.960 Also, you know, the scientific community loves the idea of a zoonotic transfer.

00:03:37.760 In other words, a natural transfer of the pathogen from a bat,

00:03:41.640 probably in Yunnan province, to an intermediary mammal, to a human in Wuhan.

00:03:47.600 But that, for many, many reasons, is not very likely.

00:03:51.980 And by the way, even after all this time,

00:03:54.780 no one's been able to document the transmission links that would prove that theory.

00:03:59.500 So I'm with the Energy Department.

00:04:02.120 I think it was a leak from a lab.

00:04:04.040 And certainly that would be the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

00:04:07.540 Well, I'm going to go back a few years, actually,

00:04:10.520 to late February and early March of 2020,

00:04:15.800 when I said flat out.

00:04:19.440 Not only did it come from that laboratory,

00:04:21.820 it had to be engineered based on my layman's understanding

00:04:26.120 of what a bioweapon would look like and be configured as.

00:04:31.440 And the very reason that people were saying that it wasn't engineered

00:04:35.220 was the reason I believe it to be engineered.

00:04:37.580 And that is, they said, well, it couldn't have been a chemical,

00:04:41.100 I mean, a biological weapon, because it didn't kill everyone.

00:04:45.660 It's precisely its ability to debilitate and deter

00:04:50.360 that makes it an ideal biological weapon, in my opinion.

00:04:54.960 Your thoughts?

00:04:56.240 You're absolutely right about that,

00:04:57.460 because what it does do is it lays a society low,

00:05:00.380 as we saw it not only in our country, but elsewhere.

00:05:04.060 Most diseases which kill at a high probability

00:05:07.540 are usually not transmissible.

00:05:10.000 And the reason is that they kill their hosts.

00:05:13.860 COVID-19 did kill, of course,

00:05:17.120 but it was extremely transmissible.

00:05:19.560 And especially as we have seen it mutate into its recent variants,

00:05:25.080 and especially the experience in China over the last several months

00:05:28.380 shows just how transmissible this was.

00:05:30.840 But, Lou, you know, there's one point that we should make,

00:05:34.380 and that is that although, you know,

00:05:37.000 we could argue about whether this started out as engineered,

00:05:40.140 and I agree with you, I think it's engineered,

00:05:41.840 but a lot of people don't.

00:05:43.320 But China, if this didn't start out as a biological weapon, 0.95

00:05:47.660 China turned it into one. 0.93

00:05:49.580 They turned it into one by two things.

00:05:52.080 First of all, we know that in January 2020,

00:05:55.440 and probably in December 2019,

00:05:57.700 they were lying about transmissibility of this disease.

00:06:02.220 They knew no later than the second week of December of 2019

00:06:05.940 that SARS-CoV-2, this pathogen,

00:06:08.660 was highly transmissible human to human,

00:06:11.180 but they told the world it was not.

00:06:13.360 And then in later January,

00:06:15.980 when they were locking down their own country,

00:06:17.980 and lockdowns are controversial,

00:06:19.340 but by locking down their own country,

00:06:21.020 they were telling the world

00:06:22.200 they thought this was an effective means of disease control.

00:06:24.900 They were pressuring other countries,

00:06:27.580 especially the United States,

00:06:29.200 to take arrivals from China

00:06:30.740 without travel restrictions or quarantines.

00:06:33.420 You put those two things together,

00:06:35.260 and it's 100% that China turned this into a biological weapon 0.83

00:06:39.600 if it wasn't one to start out with.

00:06:41.920 They deliberately spread this disease beyond China's borders, 1.00

00:06:45.760 including, of course, to the United States.

00:06:48.060 And it's important to also note, I believe,

00:06:51.840 that they did so without a word of warning

00:06:54.760 from Xi Jinping or anyone in the Chinese government,

00:06:59.060 which means that they were morally,

00:07:01.620 if not consciously and overtly,

00:07:04.820 responsible for the murder of a million Americans.

00:07:07.780 It's that straightforward.

00:07:09.380 And there has, whether it is President Trump,

00:07:11.920 whether it is President Biden,

00:07:13.740 we have not held them accountable.

00:07:15.600 And that is a sin, I believe,

00:07:18.280 that will be notable

00:07:21.300 over the course of the history

00:07:24.040 that is written about this era.

00:07:26.300 And, Lou, Robert Redfield,

00:07:29.000 who was the head of the Centers

00:07:30.620 for Disease Control and Prevention,

00:07:33.080 was told on January 3, 2020,

00:07:37.360 by his Chinese counterpart,

00:07:39.440 that this disease was not contagious.

00:07:42.680 And the Chinese knew it was highly contagious.

00:07:44.780 So this was out-and-out lying.

00:07:47.800 And that lied to Redfield

00:07:50.640 and lies to other people,

00:07:52.100 including Fauci and Deborah Birx.

00:07:54.900 They prevented the Trump administration

00:07:57.480 from taking the precautions

00:07:58.960 that they would have

00:08:00.420 if the Chinese had told the truth. 0.99

00:08:03.080 I was talking with Fauci,

00:08:06.200 interviewing him in late January, February,

00:08:09.020 and he was maintaining

00:08:11.160 that there was absolutely no reason whatsoever

00:08:14.060 to put any kind of controls

00:08:16.400 on air travel into the United States.

00:08:19.940 He was also, at one point,

00:08:22.000 suggesting there was no reason to have masks.

00:08:24.000 Then he said there were masks.

00:08:25.620 He went back and forth on that.

00:08:27.160 But he never changed his view

00:08:30.220 on the fact that transmissible COVID-bearing

00:08:34.820 people from mainland China

00:08:37.380 should be allowed into the United States. 0.98

00:08:39.680 On its face, that's just ignorant. 0.86

00:08:42.720 And in retrospect, 0.98

00:08:45.020 the man had to know

00:08:46.140 that at the very least,

00:08:48.040 he was dissembling,

00:08:49.200 if not outright lying.

00:08:50.600 Absolutely.

00:08:52.840 And there's something else he lied about,

00:08:54.700 and that is,

00:08:55.580 you know, in 2014,

00:08:58.720 the Obama administration

00:08:59.880 imposed a moratorium

00:09:01.400 on the federal funding

00:09:02.620 of gain-of-function research.

00:09:04.460 It was just considered to be too dangerous.

00:09:07.260 So what did Fauci do?

00:09:08.740 He outsourced gain-of-function research

00:09:11.260 to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

00:09:13.580 In other words,

00:09:14.520 to what appeared to be,

00:09:15.840 or what should have appeared to him,

00:09:17.220 to be a Chinese biological weapons lab.

00:09:20.020 And we know this

00:09:22.100 because there are actually

00:09:23.500 two public scientific papers,

00:09:26.400 2016 and 2017,

00:09:28.880 by researchers

00:09:30.260 of the Wuhan Institute of Virology

00:09:32.480 describing gain-of-function research.

00:09:34.740 And in their footnotes,

00:09:36.240 specifically thanking

00:09:38.080 the National Institute of Allergy

00:09:40.540 and Infectious Diseases,

00:09:41.880 which is the one institute

00:09:43.240 that Fauci ran,

00:09:44.540 specifically acknowledging funding

00:09:46.520 from Fauci's institution

00:09:48.940 at NIH.

00:09:51.940 So, you know,

00:09:52.860 he lied to Senator Rand Paul

00:09:55.820 during, in the Senate,

00:09:57.560 twice.

00:09:58.540 And I think that he's been covering

00:10:00.440 for what he's been doing

00:10:01.960 with China.

00:10:03.480 And that is part of

00:10:05.220 the crime of the century.

00:10:06.560 You know, Fauci says,

00:10:07.420 oh, I think this is

00:10:08.200 a zoonotic transfer.

00:10:09.820 Oh, no, no, no, no.

00:10:10.860 It can't be.

00:10:11.740 Because Fauci actually funded

00:10:12.940 funded the creation

00:10:14.560 of COVID-19,

00:10:16.180 I believe.

00:10:17.860 And that exchange,

00:10:20.280 those exchanges

00:10:21.200 between Senator Rand Paul

00:10:23.680 and Dr. Fauci

00:10:25.180 are the stuff

00:10:27.280 of great,

00:10:27.880 both historical value

00:10:29.820 and revealing

00:10:32.740 of what was actually happening

00:10:35.340 because Rand Paul

00:10:36.180 had figured it out

00:10:37.220 long before anyone else

00:10:39.500 in that chamber.

00:10:41.200 And the reality is

00:10:44.180 that Fauci

00:10:45.260 was lying through his teeth

00:10:47.080 when he was speaking

00:10:48.000 about gain of function,

00:10:50.700 the deadliness

00:10:51.740 and the transmissibility

00:10:53.140 of this disease.

00:10:54.340 And I want to go

00:10:56.080 to bring this back,

00:10:57.740 if I may,

00:10:58.420 to those 18 elements

00:11:01.200 of the intelligence community

00:11:03.400 and including

00:11:04.080 the energy department.

00:11:06.000 I've spent some time

00:11:07.440 in a number

00:11:08.020 of the national laboratories.

00:11:10.460 I am just stunned

00:11:12.380 to find that there is

00:11:14.180 no greater supervision.

00:11:15.940 Each time I've been there,

00:11:17.000 I've been astonished

00:11:18.420 at the lack of security

00:11:19.680 in any one

00:11:21.260 of those laboratories

00:11:22.280 doing whatever

00:11:23.920 the science is,

00:11:25.980 whether it's Los Alamos,

00:11:28.280 you name the laboratory.

00:11:30.940 It's stunning

00:11:31.900 to see how lack of data,

00:11:33.360 they're run like universities

00:11:35.140 rather than laboratories

00:11:37.740 for national security.

00:11:40.400 Your thoughts about

00:11:41.960 them being part of

00:11:43.920 the energy,

00:11:46.180 the energy,

00:11:47.000 the intelligence community.

00:11:49.120 Yeah, one of the things

00:11:50.000 that's really interesting, Lou,

00:11:51.260 is that scientists believe

00:11:52.700 that other scientists

00:11:53.560 could never be evil.

00:11:55.420 And although a scientist

00:11:57.040 in China is working

00:11:58.060 at a biological weapons lab,

00:12:00.140 you know,

00:12:00.300 it never occurs

00:12:01.040 to American scientists

00:12:02.120 that they might actually

00:12:03.120 be trying to weaponize

00:12:04.580 scientific research.

00:12:07.060 And, you know,

00:12:07.760 you're absolutely right.

00:12:08.740 You know,

00:12:08.900 we've heard so many instances

00:12:10.320 of spies from China,

00:12:12.480 for instance,

00:12:13.500 walking into American labs

00:12:15.260 and just downloading

00:12:16.980 information,

00:12:18.420 data,

00:12:18.720 and basically pillaging that.

00:12:22.120 And obviously,

00:12:23.640 we just don't have a clue.

00:12:25.920 You would think

00:12:26.780 that after all the,

00:12:27.800 you would think

00:12:28.220 just in general,

00:12:29.060 as you point out,

00:12:29.740 but especially

00:12:30.540 after all this time,

00:12:31.760 we would understand

00:12:33.080 what's going on.

00:12:34.360 We don't,

00:12:35.340 obviously.

00:12:36.000 Well,

00:12:37.580 some of us,

00:12:39.060 some of us

00:12:40.340 don't understand,

00:12:41.820 nor,

00:12:42.120 and I think it's

00:12:42.720 to everyone's credit

00:12:43.700 who doesn't understand,

00:12:44.960 because when you look

00:12:46.960 at a federal government

00:12:48.020 that is being run

00:12:49.400 the way ours is,

00:12:50.860 I can't find

00:12:51.960 a single element

00:12:52.940 of the federal government

00:12:54.240 that is immune

00:12:57.400 or has any basis

00:12:59.680 to claim

00:13:00.440 a lack of corruption.

00:13:04.940 I have great excellence

00:13:07.700 of work.

00:13:09.060 It just isn't happening.

00:13:11.060 Our military can't claim

00:13:12.460 that they're a better military

00:13:14.020 than 30 years ago.

00:13:16.940 The NIH,

00:13:18.500 I have no idea,

00:13:19.700 frankly,

00:13:20.040 how effective they are,

00:13:21.620 but they are not

00:13:22.500 making claims

00:13:23.680 on excellence

00:13:25.100 by any stretch

00:13:26.100 of the imagination.

00:13:26.800 Our national laboratories

00:13:28.340 are preserved more,

00:13:30.300 they should be called

00:13:31.060 preservatories

00:13:32.060 for all of the advanced work

00:13:34.440 that they are accomplishing,

00:13:37.180 at least in public view.

00:13:38.580 Your thoughts?

00:13:39.920 Yeah,

00:13:40.200 I mean,

00:13:40.740 that's absolutely right.

00:13:42.000 And the military

00:13:42.760 is the one

00:13:43.600 which I focus on.

00:13:46.220 And the reason is

00:13:47.400 you have a China 0.99

00:13:48.500 which is obviously

00:13:49.400 preparing to go to war.

00:13:50.980 It's not just

00:13:51.820 the buildup

00:13:52.320 of the military.

00:13:53.480 It's also

00:13:54.180 Xi Jinping,

00:13:54.960 the Chinese ruler,

00:13:55.620 trying to sanction

00:13:56.640 proof his regime

00:13:57.620 and most ominously

00:13:59.760 the Chinese

00:14:01.200 trying to mobilize

00:14:02.360 the civilian population

00:14:04.620 for war.

00:14:05.700 But we have a Pentagon

00:14:06.560 that has no sense

00:14:07.900 of urgency

00:14:08.400 and it's a Pentagon

00:14:09.960 that's more interested

00:14:11.120 these days

00:14:11.780 in social justice issues

00:14:13.620 than protecting

00:14:14.980 the United States.

00:14:16.280 And we have something

00:14:18.380 approximating

00:14:19.320 the hollow military

00:14:20.480 of the Carter years.

00:14:21.780 so I can't think

00:14:24.000 of anything

00:14:24.360 more dangerous

00:14:25.320 than the situation

00:14:26.700 we have now.

00:14:27.500 We have a federal

00:14:28.560 government in general

00:14:29.440 that is out of control

00:14:30.600 that has ceased

00:14:32.240 functioning as it should

00:14:33.380 and we need

00:14:34.580 a Ronald Reagan

00:14:35.260 to come in

00:14:35.960 and do what he did

00:14:37.700 because if we don't

00:14:39.300 we're going to be

00:14:40.080 swallowed up

00:14:40.760 by our government.

00:14:42.300 I mean,

00:14:42.500 as Reagan said,

00:14:44.520 you know,

00:14:44.860 the government

00:14:45.440 is dangerous.

00:14:46.300 Well,

00:14:48.100 we've got a lot

00:14:48.680 to talk about

00:14:49.300 when it comes to China

00:14:50.220 when it comes to

00:14:51.000 national security

00:14:51.820 here today

00:14:52.500 but I think

00:14:53.920 you're raising

00:14:54.520 another point

00:14:55.360 that I hadn't

00:14:56.680 thought about

00:14:57.800 discussing today

00:14:58.640 but I think

00:14:59.040 it's important

00:14:59.580 in what you're saying

00:15:00.180 we need another

00:15:00.840 Ronald Reagan.

00:15:01.960 I wonder

00:15:02.820 if we are beyond

00:15:04.140 the one leader

00:15:05.860 role in this country

00:15:07.900 that is the presidency

00:15:09.020 that is

00:15:09.760 we can rely upon

00:15:11.740 one man or woman

00:15:13.200 to lead this country

00:15:14.320 and by that

00:15:15.760 I mean this

00:15:16.400 Joe Biden

00:15:17.880 is showing us

00:15:19.080 a true

00:15:21.120 imperial

00:15:21.940 presidency.

00:15:23.360 He is doing

00:15:24.560 things unilaterally

00:15:25.980 without even

00:15:27.240 consultation

00:15:27.980 let alone

00:15:28.800 the agreement

00:15:30.280 of and the consent

00:15:31.380 of the governed

00:15:32.180 and of course

00:15:34.540 our Senate

00:15:35.220 and House

00:15:36.180 of Representatives.

00:15:37.740 Janet Yellen

00:15:38.720 is in Ukraine

00:15:39.980 giving them

00:15:40.680 another one

00:15:41.320 and a quarter

00:15:41.840 billion dollars

00:15:42.700 of surprise present

00:15:43.820 from the Biden

00:15:44.500 regime

00:15:45.040 for Zelensky

00:15:47.100 and Ukraine.

00:15:48.740 We don't know

00:15:49.620 where the money

00:15:50.140 is going.

00:15:51.980 Ian Smith

00:15:53.400 the other day

00:15:53.960 this senior

00:15:54.960 spokesman

00:15:55.580 for the White House

00:15:56.460 saying

00:15:57.560 to James Comer

00:15:58.920 that he didn't

00:15:59.440 like the idea

00:16:00.060 that he was

00:16:01.240 actually being

00:16:01.760 very vicious

00:16:02.280 in it

00:16:02.740 attacking Comer

00:16:04.300 because Comer 0.68

00:16:05.080 the head

00:16:05.420 of the oversight

00:16:05.960 committee

00:16:06.340 wanted to know

00:16:06.880 where the hell

00:16:07.400 those taxpayer

00:16:08.060 dollars were going.

00:16:09.000 this is

00:16:10.260 we have reached

00:16:11.100 a level

00:16:11.780 here

00:16:12.320 of a

00:16:13.420 dictatorial

00:16:14.180 presidency.

00:16:14.700 We've gone

00:16:15.280 well beyond

00:16:16.240 imperial.

00:16:17.600 Yeah.

00:16:18.620 Biden

00:16:19.260 ran

00:16:20.060 as a moderate

00:16:21.120 but he

00:16:22.200 has governed

00:16:22.760 as a radical

00:16:23.800 and you go

00:16:25.320 back

00:16:25.720 people say

00:16:26.520 well

00:16:26.980 Trump

00:16:27.580 changed

00:16:28.100 things a lot

00:16:28.820 but Trump

00:16:29.580 ran

00:16:30.040 saying

00:16:30.860 what he

00:16:31.920 was going

00:16:32.360 to do

00:16:32.700 and

00:16:33.040 you know

00:16:34.420 God help

00:16:34.940 him

00:16:35.100 he actually

00:16:35.760 did it

00:16:36.400 so there

00:16:37.860 was no

00:16:38.460 falseness

00:16:39.400 in advertising

00:16:40.380 with Trump

00:16:41.900 but with Biden

00:16:42.980 we've got a

00:16:43.600 very different

00:16:44.380 presidency

00:16:45.000 than the

00:16:45.900 American people

00:16:46.560 thought that

00:16:47.140 they were

00:16:47.680 electing

00:16:48.420 in 2020

00:16:50.000 and we

00:16:51.780 have a chance

00:16:52.380 we're a

00:16:52.680 democracy

00:16:53.040 we have a

00:16:53.600 chance to

00:16:54.100 rectify that

00:16:54.940 in next year

00:16:55.980 and we

00:16:57.040 really have to

00:16:57.660 do that

00:16:58.100 because we

00:16:59.020 have a

00:16:59.480 runaway

00:16:59.760 federal

00:17:00.100 government

00:17:00.480 as I was

00:17:00.920 mentioning.

00:17:02.560 Well

00:17:03.160 China

00:17:04.460 for example

00:17:05.740 is

00:17:07.100 dealing

00:17:08.240 with Joe

00:17:08.800 Biden

00:17:09.260 who

00:17:10.200 they

00:17:10.460 basically

00:17:11.020 bought

00:17:11.660 when you

00:17:12.920 look at

00:17:13.220 the tens

00:17:13.600 of millions

00:17:14.000 of dollars

00:17:14.540 that the

00:17:14.920 Biden

00:17:15.260 family

00:17:15.860 referring

00:17:17.020 to

00:17:17.540 Congressman

00:17:18.700 Comer

00:17:19.460 and the

00:17:19.740 Oversight

00:17:20.180 Committee

00:17:20.500 saying they

00:17:21.260 have

00:17:21.580 abundant

00:17:22.540 evidence

00:17:23.280 overwhelming

00:17:24.160 evidence

00:17:24.900 on the

00:17:26.300 business

00:17:26.700 dealings

00:17:27.200 and Joe

00:17:28.200 Biden's

00:17:28.740 knowledge

00:17:29.060 of those

00:17:29.520 dealings

00:17:30.040 as they

00:17:30.820 investigate

00:17:31.380 influence

00:17:32.180 peddling

00:17:32.600 this is

00:17:33.980 a time

00:17:35.180 in which

00:17:35.600 the

00:17:35.820 presidency

00:17:36.380 has more

00:17:37.140 power

00:17:37.560 than at

00:17:37.940 any time

00:17:38.540 in the

00:17:39.200 history

00:17:39.500 of this

00:17:40.120 country

00:17:40.560 and it's

00:17:41.720 not an

00:17:42.100 accident

00:17:42.460 because famously

00:17:43.540 Barack Obama

00:17:44.920 said as long

00:17:46.160 as he had

00:17:46.580 the power

00:17:47.180 of his

00:17:48.620 telephone

00:17:49.200 and his

00:17:50.000 pen

00:17:50.360 he would

00:17:51.720 be just

00:17:53.600 fine

00:17:54.080 with Congress

00:17:55.260 opposing him

00:17:55.980 and this is

00:17:57.060 the third

00:17:57.400 term of

00:17:57.860 Barack Obama

00:17:58.620 obviously

00:17:59.200 so there

00:18:00.520 we have

00:18:00.940 it

00:18:01.160 these

00:18:01.980 these

00:18:02.960 Democrats

00:18:03.580 these

00:18:03.980 Marxist

00:18:04.640 Dems

00:18:05.060 are running

00:18:05.660 this just

00:18:06.300 as a

00:18:06.740 totalitarian

00:18:09.140 a manner

00:18:09.680 as would

00:18:10.960 a leader

00:18:12.320 of the

00:18:12.680 Soviet Union

00:18:13.400 for crying

00:18:13.940 out loud

00:18:14.420 yeah

00:18:15.780 you know

00:18:16.140 what's

00:18:16.380 paradoxical

00:18:17.520 you know

00:18:17.920 just a

00:18:18.360 couple

00:18:18.520 days ago

00:18:19.160 Biden

00:18:19.620 gave an

00:18:20.080 interview

00:18:20.420 to David

00:18:21.360 Muir of

00:18:21.920 ABC

00:18:22.280 and he

00:18:23.880 said that

00:18:24.480 China's 0.76

00:18:24.960 peace plan

00:18:25.580 for Ukraine

00:18:26.360 was not

00:18:28.200 rational

00:18:28.860 that

00:18:30.300 Biden was

00:18:31.720 wrong

00:18:32.140 yes

00:18:33.320 the peace

00:18:34.420 plan that

00:18:35.100 China proposed

00:18:35.820 was very

00:18:36.360 one-sided

00:18:36.880 for Russia

00:18:37.400 but it was

00:18:37.960 rational

00:18:38.420 if you

00:18:39.220 thought

00:18:39.900 that the

00:18:40.820 Chinese

00:18:41.200 did not

00:18:42.140 respect

00:18:42.760 Biden

00:18:43.280 and that's

00:18:44.840 exactly

00:18:45.220 what's

00:18:45.500 happened

00:18:45.740 they think

00:18:46.340 they can

00:18:46.640 fly a

00:18:47.120 spy

00:18:47.380 balloon

00:18:47.800 over the

00:18:48.600 United

00:18:48.840 States

00:18:49.340 they think

00:18:50.100 they can

00:18:50.380 do this

00:18:50.760 they think

00:18:51.100 they can

00:18:51.440 do that

00:18:51.940 and they

00:18:53.560 propose

00:18:54.140 one-sided

00:18:54.740 peace

00:18:55.020 plans

00:18:55.340 because

00:18:55.720 fundamentally

00:18:56.540 they do

00:18:57.360 not

00:18:57.780 think

00:18:58.240 that

00:18:58.600 Biden

00:18:59.080 can

00:18:59.660 oppose

00:19:00.180 them

00:19:00.380 and so

00:19:01.180 it is

00:19:01.640 paradoxical

00:19:02.420 that

00:19:02.700 although

00:19:03.180 as you

00:19:03.620 point out

00:19:04.060 that

00:19:04.640 Biden

00:19:05.020 is the

00:19:05.380 most

00:19:05.540 powerful

00:19:05.920 president

00:19:06.340 in

00:19:06.560 history

00:19:06.860 our

00:19:08.440 enemies

00:19:08.880 don't

00:19:09.380 view it

00:19:09.780 that way

00:19:10.140 they view

00:19:10.580 him

00:19:10.920 as 0.84

00:19:11.560 weak

00:19:12.540 as

00:19:13.540 basically

00:19:14.080 presiding

00:19:14.620 over

00:19:14.880 society

00:19:15.460 and

00:19:15.700 terminal

00:19:16.020 decline

00:19:16.560 and that

00:19:17.600 means

00:19:17.960 this is

00:19:18.400 an

00:19:18.560 extremely

00:19:19.120 dangerous

00:19:19.700 moment

00:19:20.060 in history

00:19:20.500 because

00:19:20.740 the

00:19:20.920 Chinese

00:19:21.240 do not 0.99

00:19:22.380 respect

00:19:23.020 the

00:19:23.260 United

00:19:23.540 States

00:19:23.960 we are

00:19:24.320 not

00:19:24.600 deterring

00:19:25.160 them

00:19:25.420 and

00:19:26.040 therefore

00:19:26.380 we're

00:19:26.660 seeing

00:19:27.060 war

00:19:27.720 in

00:19:27.920 Ukraine

00:19:28.280 and

00:19:28.680 we're

00:19:28.860 seeing

00:19:29.120 spy

00:19:29.480 balloons

00:19:29.920 and

00:19:30.740 we're

00:19:31.060 seeing

00:19:31.440 one-sided

00:19:32.020 peace

00:19:32.320 plans

00:19:32.760 I

00:19:34.800 think

00:19:35.220 you're

00:19:35.400 exactly

00:19:35.740 right

00:19:36.140 and I

00:19:36.740 also

00:19:37.020 think

00:19:37.340 it's

00:19:37.540 important

00:19:37.940 that

00:19:38.760 the

00:19:38.980 people

00:19:39.380 of Europe

00:19:39.720 understand

00:19:40.520 that

00:19:41.460 only with

00:19:42.640 this

00:19:42.860 president

00:19:43.260 could they

00:19:43.800 get away

00:19:44.180 with what

00:19:44.540 they're doing

00:19:44.940 right now

00:19:45.560 with

00:19:45.820 Ukraine

00:19:46.780 aflame

00:19:47.560 devastated

00:19:48.300 and much

00:19:48.860 of it

00:19:49.140 destroyed

00:19:49.720 tens of

00:19:52.100 millions

00:19:52.400 of people

00:19:52.960 displaced

00:19:54.340 and the

00:19:55.660 and the

00:19:55.680 death toll

00:19:56.800 I don't

00:19:57.280 know

00:19:57.480 but it's

00:19:57.840 got to

00:19:58.220 be in

00:19:58.560 the

00:19:58.700 hundreds

00:19:58.940 of

00:19:59.220 thousands

00:19:59.700 it would

00:20:00.120 seem

00:20:00.360 to me

00:20:00.820 to look

00:20:02.940 at that

00:20:03.320 and think

00:20:03.820 that we're

00:20:04.480 talking about

00:20:04.760 the modern

00:20:06.760 European

00:20:07.260 Union

00:20:07.780 this

00:20:08.640 this

00:20:08.660 this

00:20:08.680 this is

00:20:08.900 27

00:20:09.660 countries

00:20:10.240 28

00:20:10.760 if you

00:20:11.140 include

00:20:11.640 the

00:20:12.120 brexited

00:20:12.600 UK

00:20:13.540 a

00:20:14.860 an

00:20:16.360 economy

00:20:16.880 that is

00:20:17.380 almost

00:20:17.740 that

00:20:18.160 of the

00:20:18.440 United

00:20:18.780 States

00:20:19.300 and

00:20:19.920 in

00:20:20.360 some

00:20:20.700 nominal

00:20:21.540 terms

00:20:22.040 actually

00:20:22.440 larger

00:20:22.940 than

00:20:23.920 China

00:20:24.340 itself

00:20:24.940 and

00:20:26.340 we're

00:20:26.600 the

00:20:26.740 one

00:20:26.940 shipping

00:20:27.340 hundreds

00:20:28.060 of billions

00:20:29.020 of dollars

00:20:29.740 to Ukraine

00:20:30.700 our troops

00:20:31.800 are on the

00:20:32.220 eastern

00:20:32.580 flank

00:20:33.120 we're

00:20:34.080 doing

00:20:34.500 proposed

00:20:35.380 at least

00:20:35.940 about to

00:20:37.080 do

00:20:37.360 maneuvers

00:20:38.140 with

00:20:38.580 Poland

00:20:39.780 and

00:20:40.360 Germany

00:20:40.800 and

00:20:42.040 where

00:20:42.380 in the

00:20:42.960 world

00:20:43.480 is

00:20:43.920 NATO

00:20:44.260 and

00:20:44.760 why

00:20:45.120 is

00:20:45.340 the

00:20:45.480 United

00:20:45.800 States

00:20:46.360 going

00:20:47.100 over

00:20:47.380 with

00:20:47.640 the

00:20:47.820 Secretary

00:20:48.300 of

00:20:48.600 Treasury

00:20:49.040 the

00:20:49.960 Vice

00:20:50.380 President

00:20:50.860 all of

00:20:53.020 these

00:20:53.280 folks

00:20:54.280 from

00:20:54.440 the

00:20:54.600 Biden

00:20:54.860 regime

00:20:55.320 and

00:20:55.540 the

00:20:55.680 President

00:20:55.980 himself

00:20:56.540 for

00:20:57.040 a

00:20:57.240 photo

00:20:57.520 op

00:20:57.860 in

00:20:58.400 Kiev

00:20:58.700 it

00:20:59.780 is

00:21:00.040 mindless

00:21:00.920 these

00:21:01.480 people

00:21:01.840 are

00:21:02.060 living

00:21:02.480 three

00:21:03.340 decades

00:21:03.880 behind

00:21:04.500 the

00:21:05.760 current

00:21:06.460 economic

00:21:07.220 and

00:21:07.620 political

00:21:08.080 realities

00:21:08.840 NATO

00:21:10.620 without

00:21:10.920 the

00:21:11.140 United

00:21:11.320 States

00:21:11.660 is

00:21:11.880 nothing

00:21:12.180 and

00:21:13.060 I

00:21:13.480 think

00:21:13.700 that

00:21:13.900 it

00:21:14.040 is

00:21:14.300 no

00:21:14.580 coincidence

00:21:15.100 that

00:21:15.580 we

00:21:15.800 had

00:21:16.180 two

00:21:16.700 world

00:21:17.020 wars

00:21:17.400 last

00:21:17.740 century

00:21:18.200 that

00:21:18.780 one

00:21:19.400 started

00:21:19.880 in

00:21:20.500 Europe

00:21:22.020 the

00:21:22.300 other

00:21:22.480 one

00:21:22.900 was

00:21:23.700 continued

00:21:24.220 in

00:21:24.540 Europe

00:21:24.840 probably

00:21:26.180 World

00:21:26.820 War

00:21:27.000 II

00:21:27.120 probably

00:21:27.400 started

00:21:27.720 in

00:21:27.920 Asia

00:21:28.180 but

00:21:28.820 the

00:21:29.120 big

00:21:29.320 fighting

00:21:30.300 started

00:21:30.700 in

00:21:30.940 Europe

00:21:31.140 in

00:21:31.340 1939

00:21:31.920 and

00:21:33.160 I

00:21:33.660 think

00:21:33.860 it's

00:21:34.060 largely

00:21:34.380 because

00:21:34.820 of

00:21:35.560 the

00:21:35.740 structure

00:21:36.240 of

00:21:36.520 Europe

00:21:36.780 and

00:21:37.240 the

00:21:38.000 Europeans

00:21:38.500 after

00:21:39.040 World

00:21:39.300 War

00:21:39.500 II

00:21:39.700 tried

00:21:40.160 to

00:21:40.780 remedy

00:21:41.420 that

00:21:41.780 by

00:21:42.240 the

00:21:42.580 European

00:21:42.940 Union

00:21:43.500 and

00:21:44.220 by

00:21:44.480 NATO

00:21:44.780 and

00:21:44.980 other

00:21:45.120 things

00:21:45.420 but

00:21:46.060 clearly

00:21:46.540 Europe

00:21:47.580 has

00:21:47.920 not

00:21:48.220 coalesced

00:21:49.060 it

00:21:49.360 is

00:21:49.680 not

00:21:49.960 able

00:21:50.200 to

00:21:50.400 defend

00:21:50.700 itself

00:21:51.180 it

00:21:51.580 is

00:21:51.800 the

00:21:51.980 United

00:21:52.240 States

00:21:52.780 and

00:21:53.560 that

00:21:54.300 has

00:21:54.600 all

00:21:54.960 sorts

00:21:55.240 of

00:21:55.400 repercussions

00:21:56.040 some

00:21:56.500 of which

00:21:56.840 we

00:21:57.100 are

00:21:57.280 seeing

00:21:57.700 right

00:21:57.980 now

00:21:58.340 and

00:21:59.160 it

00:21:59.300 means

00:21:59.580 that

00:21:59.760 Europe

00:22:00.020 is

00:22:00.460 not

00:22:00.680 a

00:22:00.840 source

00:22:01.100 of

00:22:01.280 stability

00:22:01.900 as

00:22:02.620 we

00:22:02.800 all

00:22:03.060 thought

00:22:03.400 it

00:22:03.560 was

00:22:03.880 at

00:22:04.020 some

00:22:04.240 point

00:22:04.560 but

00:22:05.280 it

00:22:05.460 really

00:22:05.820 is

00:22:06.200 a

00:22:06.380 source

00:22:06.680 of

00:22:06.940 instability

00:22:07.760 and

00:22:08.720 it

00:22:08.920 could

00:22:09.040 be

00:22:09.260 very

00:22:09.540 well

00:22:09.940 the

00:22:10.440 start

00:22:10.720 of

00:22:10.900 the

00:22:11.240 third

00:22:11.660 world

00:22:11.960 war

00:22:12.320 and

00:22:13.140 as

00:22:13.460 I

00:22:13.580 said

00:22:13.760 that's

00:22:14.060 no

00:22:14.240 coincidence

00:22:14.700 it's

00:22:15.400 the

00:22:15.580 structure

00:22:16.420 of

00:22:16.640 Europe

00:22:16.820 itself

00:22:17.280 yeah

00:22:19.380 and

00:22:19.780 it's

00:22:20.000 also

00:22:20.300 the

00:22:20.660 the

00:22:21.380 woeful

00:22:22.540 lack

00:22:22.980 of

00:22:23.140 leadership

00:22:23.540 on

00:22:24.100 the

00:22:24.240 part

00:22:24.500 of

00:22:24.620 the

00:22:24.800 largest

00:22:25.300 members

00:22:26.020 of

00:22:26.300 the

00:22:26.420 European

00:22:26.700 Union

00:22:27.120 and

00:22:27.480 NATO

00:22:27.920 whether

00:22:28.520 it's

00:22:28.780 Germany

00:22:29.160 whether

00:22:29.500 it's

00:22:29.840 France

00:22:30.260 the

00:22:32.360 UK

00:22:32.840 they

00:22:34.160 have

00:22:34.380 not

00:22:34.780 since

00:22:35.420 well

00:22:36.060 the

00:22:36.900 80s

00:22:37.480 on

00:22:37.820 I

00:22:38.500 had

00:22:38.660 great

00:22:38.900 leadership

00:22:39.300 in

00:22:39.600 the

00:22:39.720 UK

00:22:40.020 or

00:22:41.100 Germany

00:22:41.660 or

00:22:42.800 France

00:22:43.300 the

00:22:43.660 principal

00:22:44.040 economies

00:22:44.660 of

00:22:45.180 the

00:22:45.560 European

00:22:45.820 Union

00:22:46.300 Europe

00:22:48.100 I

00:22:48.300 should

00:22:48.520 say

00:22:48.800 since

00:22:49.100 I

00:22:49.480 I'm

00:22:50.020 still

00:22:50.300 trying

00:22:50.640 to

00:22:50.740 get

00:22:50.880 used

00:22:51.100 to

00:22:51.240 the

00:22:51.360 fact

00:22:51.600 that

00:22:51.820 the

00:22:52.460 UK

00:22:52.740 hasn't

00:22:53.200 withdrawn

00:22:53.560 from

00:22:53.900 the

00:22:54.080 European

00:22:54.500 Union

00:22:54.860 despite

00:22:55.200 their

00:22:55.520 vote

00:22:55.780 over

00:22:56.140 the

00:22:56.320 next

00:22:56.780 decade

00:22:57.120 perhaps

00:22:57.460 they

00:22:57.640 will

00:22:57.900 it

00:22:59.200 it

00:22:59.960 is

00:23:00.240 it's

00:23:01.040 an

00:23:01.160 economy

00:23:01.660 larger

00:23:02.440 than

00:23:03.320 anyone

00:23:03.700 credits

00:23:04.240 they

00:23:04.720 have

00:23:04.940 less

00:23:05.220 debt

00:23:05.560 than

00:23:05.720 the

00:23:05.880 United

00:23:06.200 States

00:23:06.760 and

00:23:07.640 we

00:23:07.860 are

00:23:08.060 shipping

00:23:08.400 money

00:23:09.000 to

00:23:09.540 Ukraine

00:23:10.020 we

00:23:11.420 are

00:23:11.800 doing

00:23:12.400 almost

00:23:12.960 nothing

00:23:13.500 in

00:23:14.080 Southeast

00:23:14.600 Asia

00:23:15.140 we're

00:23:16.220 doing

00:23:16.500 almost

00:23:17.020 nothing

00:23:17.460 with

00:23:17.800 Japan

00:23:18.380 and

00:23:18.640 the

00:23:18.800 Philippines

00:23:19.220 we

00:23:19.480 have

00:23:19.700 awakened

00:23:20.040 to

00:23:20.240 the

00:23:20.380 fact

00:23:20.620 that

00:23:20.820 we

00:23:21.000 do

00:23:21.280 need

00:23:21.720 to

00:23:22.460 be

00:23:22.840 positioned

00:23:23.900 strategically

00:23:24.640 in

00:23:25.180 the

00:23:25.720 Philippines

00:23:26.220 and be

00:23:27.380 more

00:23:28.120 engaged

00:23:28.580 with the

00:23:28.960 Japanese

00:23:29.480 and beyond

00:23:30.400 I think

00:23:31.220 South Korea

00:23:31.900 is obviously

00:23:33.000 as well

00:23:33.620 this is

00:23:35.700 not a

00:23:36.140 foreign

00:23:36.380 policy

00:23:36.880 that

00:23:37.100 we're

00:23:37.260 watching

00:23:37.640 this

00:23:38.280 is

00:23:38.660 an

00:23:42.400 approach

00:23:43.500 to

00:23:43.840 reactionary

00:23:45.080 geopolitics

00:23:47.100 and

00:23:48.320 let me

00:23:48.680 remind

00:23:49.180 your

00:23:49.420 listeners

00:23:49.800 of

00:23:50.000 something

00:23:50.220 that

00:23:50.500 you

00:23:50.900 taught

00:23:51.240 me

00:23:51.480 and

00:23:51.740 that

00:23:51.940 is

00:23:52.260 we

00:23:53.440 just

00:23:53.700 completely

00:23:54.580 neglected

00:23:55.200 Latin

00:23:55.620 America

00:23:56.140 and

00:23:56.600 the

00:23:56.740 Caribbean

00:23:57.000 I

00:23:57.900 mean

00:23:58.040 these

00:23:58.500 are

00:23:58.640 countries

00:23:58.980 very

00:23:59.220 close

00:23:59.620 to

00:23:59.780 us

00:24:00.000 these

00:24:00.240 are

00:24:00.360 countries

00:24:00.780 that

00:24:01.020 are

00:24:01.140 exporting

00:24:01.660 problems

00:24:02.380 to

00:24:02.640 us

00:24:02.960 and

00:24:03.920 we're

00:24:04.140 still

00:24:04.340 not

00:24:04.560 paying

00:24:04.820 attention

00:24:05.220 to

00:24:06.040 our

00:24:07.320 own

00:24:07.700 region

00:24:08.080 and

00:24:09.500 you

00:24:09.860 were

00:24:10.020 the

00:24:10.220 first

00:24:10.520 to

00:24:10.880 sound

00:24:11.260 the

00:24:11.440 alarm

00:24:11.720 on

00:24:12.000 this

00:24:12.360 so

00:24:13.400 it's

00:24:13.660 really

00:24:14.000 important

00:24:14.460 that

00:24:14.740 yeah

00:24:15.400 Asia

00:24:15.860 is

00:24:15.980 important

00:24:16.280 and

00:24:16.420 of

00:24:16.820 course

00:24:17.000 I

00:24:17.140 think

00:24:17.320 Asia

00:24:17.520 is

00:24:17.640 important

00:24:17.920 because

00:24:18.100 I

00:24:18.200 focus

00:24:18.480 on

00:24:18.680 China

00:24:18.920 but

00:24:19.640 we

00:24:20.820 need

00:24:21.080 to

00:24:21.240 make

00:24:21.420 sure

00:24:21.760 that

00:24:22.040 we

00:24:22.220 have

00:24:22.440 a

00:24:22.560 secure

00:24:22.900 hemisphere

00:24:23.380 because

00:24:23.980 we

00:24:24.200 have

00:24:24.520 the

00:24:24.760 Chinese

00:24:25.180 and

00:24:25.560 the

00:24:25.720 Russians

00:24:26.000 and

00:24:26.480 the

00:24:26.620 Iranians 0.58

00:24:27.240 and

00:24:27.720 God

00:24:27.960 knows

00:24:28.220 who

00:24:28.400 else

00:24:28.780 creating

00:24:29.860 trouble

00:24:32.960 China

00:24:33.140 for

00:24:33.420 instance

00:24:33.760 is

00:24:34.000 building

00:24:34.520 or

00:24:34.880 has

00:24:35.120 built

00:24:35.360 what

00:24:35.620 looks

00:24:35.960 like

00:24:36.280 the

00:24:36.640 next

00:24:37.280 Chinese

00:24:37.700 naval

00:24:38.040 base

00:24:38.380 which

00:24:38.920 is

00:24:39.200 in

00:24:39.460 Freeport

00:24:40.080 in

00:24:40.380 the

00:24:40.480 Bahamas

00:24:40.940 87

00:24:41.680 miles

00:24:42.320 east

00:24:42.980 of

00:24:43.180 Palm

00:24:43.420 Beach

00:24:43.760 for

00:24:44.040 God's

00:24:44.460 sakes

00:24:44.720 and

00:24:45.800 you

00:24:46.660 know

00:24:46.820 they're

00:24:47.380 there

00:24:47.760 they have

00:24:48.180 a

00:24:48.300 container

00:24:48.620 port

00:24:49.000 which

00:24:49.240 is

00:24:49.440 failing

00:24:49.940 the

00:24:50.600 Chinese

00:24:50.960 can

00:24:51.220 very

00:24:51.480 well

00:24:51.700 take

00:24:51.940 it

00:24:52.060 over

00:24:52.240 because

00:24:52.460 they

00:24:52.580 built

00:24:52.960 it

00:24:53.180 they

00:24:53.660 could

00:24:53.800 put

00:24:53.960 their

00:24:54.140 navy

00:24:54.500 in

00:24:54.760 there

00:24:54.980 I

00:24:55.540 mean

00:24:55.680 the

00:24:56.200 Belt and

00:24:56.620 road

00:24:56.900 program

00:24:57.560 and

00:24:58.180 it's

00:25:02.960 own the

00:25:15.320 Panama Canal at both ends and they are infiltrating the region destabilizing governments you name it and and if we're going to talk about alarms and regions certainly nothing is more important than that which is most proximate militarily and in geopolitics the the Caribbean Central America South America there is no way in the world we should be tolerating this and

00:25:30.640 we should be responding powerfully to the intrusion but we're not when it was Barack Obama remember who famously on a fine November day decided to announce that the Monroe Doctrine was dead this is the kind of madness that has been heaped upon us

00:25:47.220 Jimmy Carter decided that we shouldn't we shouldn't be engaged with the Panama Canal and in some sort of massive historic virtue signaling decided to turn it back to Panama

00:26:00.460 and leave it wide open for

00:26:02.500 what is it the Biden administration likes to call them the competitors of the United States they're the damn enemies of the United States right I mean we have just to take one of those problems I mean we have all of those border crossings right now from Central America and the reason is that those areas were decimated by China's entry into the World Trade Organization factories left

00:26:28.280 every country in our hemisphere but it's all but as well as in Central America and and now Central Americans without hope without jobs they want to migrate to the United States but we can stabilize that we can bring factories back to the United States we can also bring some factories which wouldn't come back to American soil they could go to Central America and get cheaper labor than they have in China and that would stabilize those societies which means we wouldn't 0.53

00:26:57.280 have millions of people trying to have millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions of millions

00:27:23.760 border. It's not just fentanyl is a Chinese problem. We've got probably Chinese agents

00:27:29.120 coming across our border not monitored. I think unquestionably, and furthermore,

00:27:36.960 we have no interior immigration enforcement. We have no appetite whatsoever, no political will

00:27:43.840 in this country to defend that border. It has de facto been turned over to the Mexican drug

00:27:52.440 cartels who are working hand in glove with the Chinese for fentanyl, pharmaceutical ingredients, 0.87

00:27:59.340 and their scientists, as you well know, are helping those cartels in the manufacture of fentanyl that

00:28:06.800 is now coming into this country in ever greater, massive, deadly quantities. And when I say deadly,

00:28:13.320 we're talking about the capacity to kill the American population two or three times over.

00:28:21.040 Yes. Some of those fentanyl seizures recently are so large that they could kill every American.

00:28:28.220 And we know that the Communist Party is backing the fentanyl gangs because in China's total 0.85

00:28:35.820 surveillance state, those fentanyl gangs could not operate without the approval of the party.

00:28:40.780 And the gangs actually launder their money through the Chinese state, the Chinese state banking system.

00:28:48.140 Chinese diplomats support the fentanyl gangs. And we're not holding the Communist Party to account. 0.52

00:28:55.360 And that's two years ago, that was about 77,000 Americans who had died from illegal fentanyl doses.

00:29:03.480 When we get the numbers for last year, it's probably going to be in excess of 80,000 for sure.

00:29:10.040 That's 80,000 Americans who have been murdered last year by Communist Party, in addition to the COVID deaths. 0.84

00:29:19.040 Yeah. Well, when you start looking at what is happening, the Chinese military strategists,

00:29:27.600 and some of them going back as far as Sun Tzu, acknowledging that to not fight a war is even better than winning a war.

00:29:35.940 And what we are watching is a country that is strategically going after the United States in every way,

00:29:42.600 subverting it wherever it can, covertly, and now in plain view.

00:29:48.540 And there is such little appetite, stomach, or if you will, guts on the part of the American public

00:29:55.360 to contend with what is in their face.

00:29:58.560 And that is their own—they're being bled every day.

00:30:02.020 We are being bled every day by the Chinese Communist Party, 1.00

00:30:06.460 whether it is the theft of intellectual property,

00:30:08.980 whether it is the purchase of farmland and strategically placed real estate,

00:30:14.100 whether it be companies, front companies that are running,

00:30:17.920 gaming us every day for hundreds of billions of dollars in intellectual property,

00:30:22.380 are outright theft of.

00:30:23.860 It is sickening to watch what this country doesn't have the courage or the wits to deal with.

00:30:33.140 Yeah. I've been talking to a lot of audiences around the country,

00:30:37.060 and I think the American people know what to do. 1.00

00:30:40.800 It's just that the political leadership is corrupted or naive or just stupid. 1.00

00:30:48.220 But whatever it is, we're not being defended by the people that we elected. 1.00

00:30:53.760 The American people, I think, are angry, Lou.

00:30:56.240 They want to do something.

00:30:58.300 And by God, we're going to do it because we've got elections coming up next year,

00:31:02.120 and we can change things, and we will change things.

00:31:05.280 Not with Ronna McDaniels, the head of the RNC.

00:31:09.360 Not with the contentious divide in the Republican Party,

00:31:14.200 the establishment attacking Donald Trump, the leader of the party,

00:31:18.640 the only person in the Republican Party who has had an original idea in, I think, decades.

00:31:25.360 He is being gamed, attacked from every quarter.

00:31:31.180 He is being politically persecuted in favor of establishment, what would I call them, dupes,

00:31:39.140 that the American people, you saw that Jeb Bush came out and supporting Ron DeSantis.

00:31:46.340 I have no problem with Ron DeSantis, but Ron DeSantis is not, I think,

00:31:52.060 on the right side of history or the right time in history.

00:31:55.680 It is ridiculous to watch this and to see what a number of networks are doing.

00:32:01.440 They've picked their favorites, and they are pressing forward with establishment candidates.

00:32:06.980 And we have an electorate who can't even get an honest election time after time.

00:32:14.240 We're watching it rigged, if you will, whatever you want to call it, stolen.

00:32:19.060 And this is absurd to see these illegitimate elections and people walking around with their heads on their hands woefully saying,

00:32:28.900 well, you know, we're just not going to be able to engage.

00:32:31.940 Some are, no question about it.

00:32:33.820 Those are America firsters.

00:32:35.400 Those are MAGA Republicans. 0.82

00:32:38.280 But unfortunately, the party has so many rhinos and rhino liberals that it's enough to make you sick to your stomach. 0.99

00:32:46.780 We all need more Lou Dobbs in our life because you called it early, Lou, and you have never wavered.

00:32:55.260 And, you know, I have and so many people across the country because they tell me they look at you and they say his ideas are what are going to save us.

00:33:06.380 Well, that's very kind.

00:33:07.600 I mean, now we need somebody to, you know, to actually go get them.

00:33:14.220 And as you and I are talking about, to be energized and devoted to this country and drive every single idea to implementation.

00:33:26.360 Think about what we have to do.

00:33:28.120 I mean, Donald Trump wants to build a wall.

00:33:30.840 You know, frankly, I'd never thought about building a wall.

00:33:33.560 I was against illegal immigration.

00:33:35.960 But you know what?

00:33:37.520 It makes all the sense in the world.

00:33:39.760 It is a practical matter.

00:33:41.240 And as a practical matter, it's employed, by the way, including, what is it, the Great Wall of China is what, 13,000, 14,000 miles long?

00:33:49.760 I mean, if they can do it and live by it, why could we not?

00:33:55.000 Right.

00:33:55.520 Yeah, it was meant to keep out the Manchu invaders. 1.00

00:33:58.180 And I do remember that when Nancy Pelosi was Speaker, she built a chain-linked fence around the Capitol.

00:34:06.980 You know, these people live in walled compounds.

00:34:10.320 So, yeah, walls do make sense.

00:34:12.160 And so much makes sense.

00:34:15.240 Lower taxes instead of higher accountability of the American people, things like consent of the governed, co-equal branches of government, and accountability.

00:34:25.720 I just, I hope that we can get to that point.

00:34:30.040 But waiting for the next election, and I have to say to you, I don't believe we can wait.

00:34:35.540 I saw a picture of Ronald McDaniel today talking about loyalty oaths.

00:34:40.460 I want to say the loyalty oath to the United States of America is going to be a loyalty oath.

00:34:47.380 And I'm not so sure as some of these folks who call themselves politicians and Republicans who are actually rhinos, who act in absolute disregard of their citizenship in this great republic. 0.70

00:35:00.860 Your thoughts?

00:35:02.060 Yeah, I'm a political independent.

00:35:04.140 But I can't believe the Republican Party or the Republican National Committee re-elected Rona McDaniel.

00:35:11.680 I was shocked.

00:35:12.360 I mean, I don't follow these things, Lou.

00:35:14.120 But I figured that a record of failure would merit expulsion, but apparently not in the Republican Party.

00:35:23.040 Not in the Republican Party, certainly.

00:35:25.600 It is, I think, the healthiest thing I've seen happen to the Republican Party since the election of Donald Trump has been the bargaining that took place between the Freedom Caucus

00:35:37.420 and the so-called 20 who bargained with Kevin McCarthy for the Speakership and to get representation of good, strong, American, committed conservatives and Republicans who want the best for this nation and put America first.

00:35:58.140 That's, to me, it is exhilarating to see the so-called new church committee dealing with the weaponization of the U.S. government.

00:36:08.940 And also, without question, the China committee to have the courage to do that and to move forward.

00:36:16.820 And they are moving forward.

00:36:18.320 Your thoughts about all of that?

00:36:20.700 Lou, it's Lexington and Concord time.

00:36:23.880 And this time is consequential because we Americans, we are our own last line of defense.

00:36:34.440 Well said.

00:36:35.760 And as always, we give our guests the last word here, Gordon.

00:36:39.640 And if I may turn to you for your concluding thoughts on this beautiful day in America.

00:36:44.680 It's a beautiful day in America, but it is a time where we have to save our republic.

00:36:50.120 We can we can lose it, Lou.

00:36:53.360 We can lose it not just to the Chinese and the Russians and all the rest. 1.00

00:36:58.180 We can lose it to the forces in our own country.

00:37:01.320 You know, when I was growing up, I was, you know, I was thinking, I thought about Rome and I said, how can Rome fall apart?

00:37:10.800 You know, America will never fall apart.

00:37:13.320 And in the last couple of years, I've seen America fall apart.

00:37:16.720 So we've got to go out and save it.

00:37:18.880 And so I'm with you.

00:37:20.320 Well, I am delighted because I'm with you, Gordon, and I appreciate it.

00:37:26.800 And we're with the with this.

00:37:28.920 Most importantly, we're with this great American republic of ours.

00:37:32.820 And you're you're terrific to spend so much time with us here today.

00:37:37.160 As always, we appreciate appreciate your insight and your knowledge and your wisdom.

00:37:42.960 Gordon Chang.

00:37:44.000 Thank you.

00:37:45.500 Thank you, Lou.

00:37:46.260 Thanks, as always, to our friend Gordon Chang.

00:37:48.680 And now we turn to the internal political realities with one of the country's leading political strategist and pollsters, John McLaughlin.

00:37:57.620 Great to have you here on The Great America Show, John.

00:38:00.480 Give us your perspective now and your thoughts about America in this strange, sometimes bizarre political period we're living through.

00:38:09.960 Well, I think we're really at a unique time in American history because Donald Trump was a very unique president.

00:38:17.720 Historic president in that he beat the Washington, the Republican establishment for the nomination.

00:38:23.740 Then he beat the Washington establishment for the election.

00:38:27.500 And, you know, they beat him or they at least took the presidency four years ago.

00:38:33.520 And now he's coming back.

00:38:34.680 And we're 320 days away from the first votes being cast in the Iowa caucus.

00:38:40.500 Wow.

00:38:40.940 And right.

00:38:42.380 It's a but he's the front runner.

00:38:45.080 And he announced in November after the election.

00:38:48.160 And there was a little waning during the holidays.

00:38:50.720 And what we have now is, I mean, in our last poll at the end of February, Donald Trump was ahead of the Republican field in a multi-cannity race, 42 to 26.

00:39:03.240 He definitely was beating Ron DeSantis in a one-to-one challenge, 56 to 38, which is higher than January.

00:39:10.540 He's 52 to 40.

00:39:11.600 And he's leading Joe Biden, 48, 44.

00:39:14.780 And he's had that lead nationally over Joe Biden since Biden surrendered to Afghanistan.

00:39:20.880 So we're really in a unique phase where you have a president who, by the way, when you ask Republican primary voters, should he run again?

00:39:29.740 57 percent said yes.

00:39:31.060 And 76 percent said they'll support him to only 20 percent no if he runs again among these Republican primary voters.

00:39:39.060 So there's a gap between his actual vote and should he run again?

00:39:43.740 And we asked him why they weren't supporting him.

00:39:47.200 It wasn't that they didn't dislike him.

00:39:49.440 They're just looking at the other candidates.

00:39:51.660 And what we're seeing is now is Donald Trump is back out on the stump.

00:39:55.780 He's gone to South Carolina, New Hampshire.

00:39:58.160 He's going to be going to Iowa.

00:39:59.520 He made a great visit to East Palestine when these people in Ohio were suffering after the Biden administration, you know, just totally bungled a toxic train derailment where they've opened up this 21st century love canal where they've definitely poisoned the people of Ohio and Pennsylvania with what's going on. 0.93

00:40:20.600 And Joe Biden took off to Ukraine to give hundreds of, you know, millions of dollars to the Ukrainians or billions of dollars to the Ukrainians while Americans here are suffering and could use that money.

00:40:33.700 And he still hasn't been to East Palestine.

00:40:35.720 But the big difference was Donald Trump went there, told those people, and he brought his own, you know, he's a corporate businessman.

00:40:45.160 He brought his own bottled water and went to the McDonald's, was buying food for people.

00:40:49.940 And he's doing what he could as a citizen.

00:40:52.680 And people are hurting.

00:40:54.180 So it's really historic in that the conditions that allowed Donald Trump to win in 2016 have only become exponentially more aggravated since then, where he is now.

00:41:07.260 I mean, his speech at CPAC was great because it was a clarion call to the working men and women of America against the political establishment.

00:41:16.260 And, you know, he just had a tremendous success at CPAC, which was held inside the beltway.

00:41:25.660 And he had these conservatives come over, 2,000 conservatives cast their vote, which they have to pay to go to the conference.

00:41:32.340 And only one person gets to vote there.

00:41:34.660 You know, we do the survey.

00:41:36.060 My brother Jim oversaw it.

00:41:37.860 And, you know, only one person gets a vote.

00:41:40.700 And you have to be a participant in the conference.

00:41:43.100 And Donald Trump won 62% of the vote.

00:41:47.320 Ron DeSantis didn't even go, but he got 20%.

00:41:49.700 And, you know, when they asked him for vice president, Carrie Lake got 19% to DeSantis is 14% to Nikki Haley's 10%.

00:41:58.560 So Donald Trump is really gaining momentum because two-thirds of the country, 65%, say we're on the wrong track.

00:42:07.440 They say the economy is getting worse, not better, 61% to 33%.

00:42:12.020 Still four to five voters have been impacted by inflation, 37%, telling us that they can't even make ends meet for basic necessities.

00:42:21.540 So, you know, Donald Trump is getting ready to move the country forward again.

00:42:25.760 And we've got 320 days to go until we start voting in the Iowa caucuses, then eight days later is New Hampshire.

00:42:32.860 So it's a marathon, but he's up for it.

00:42:37.120 That number, 40 points, is pretty significant, even if it is a straw poll at CPAC.

00:42:46.200 I mean, that's impressive.

00:42:48.160 I don't know.

00:42:48.880 Has there ever been one any stronger than that?

00:42:51.740 No.

00:42:52.040 I mean, 95% of those voters there approved of the job he did as president, and the vast majority strongly approved.

00:43:01.520 And, you know, this is, he's, it's not the 20th century with Ronald Reagan where it was mourning in America.

00:43:07.500 And I used to go, we loved Ronald Reagan.

00:43:09.360 He was great.

00:43:09.980 He was my, you know, my hero at the time.

00:43:12.080 And now you've got Donald Trump.

00:43:13.280 And things in America are not as good as it was in the 20th century.

00:43:19.100 So when you look at what's going on with the middle class and the exploitation and what's going on with China and the world and what's going on with the, you know, you've got Russia invading Ukraine, then not afraid of Joe Biden.

00:43:31.760 And it's, it's, these are, these are times where most Americans will tell you the country's gone backwards.

00:43:38.340 And we have never gone backwards before in our history.

00:43:41.340 And for most voters to feel that way, there's anger right now at the ruling class, the elites, the establishment, and forget when you get, you know, a couple thousand conservatives traveling inside the beltway to send the establishment a message at a conference where they're, they literally, you know, went at the establishment.

00:44:02.980 They went at the ruling class of the country and, you know, they're being censored.

00:44:08.180 They're being shunned by, by these people that exploit us.

00:44:13.280 And, you know, the, the grassroots around the country are being rallied by Donald Trump once

00:44:18.860 again, to give them hope that we can take back our country.

00:44:21.480 They are the forgotten Americans who Donald Trump embraced in 2015 and 2016 and, and won the presidency that, and that's before him again, we are in a different situation though.

00:44:36.800 And, and then in 2016, we have greater clarity about the role of the federal government, the political corruption of the federal government's so-called deep state.

00:44:46.440 We have no, I think most Americans now have no illusions about what the Democrat party is.

00:44:53.580 It is a Marxist led party with a Marxist agenda and they mean to destroy everything from the nuclear family, uh, to the founding values of the country and to roll over, uh, this political system into a one party system.

00:45:09.920 It's not the uniparty as some insist on calling it, it's not a, uh, a two tier justice system.

00:45:16.760 It's one party, one centralized autocratic totalitarian government, uh, that they dream of and which they do better than dream because they're actually executing the plan and doing so.

00:45:29.700 I think brilliantly while Republicans, independents, libertarians are all sitting there slack jawed at what is happening before their very eyes.

00:45:39.920 And what is happening nearly every day in Washington, DC, your thoughts.

00:45:44.060 I couldn't agree more.

00:45:45.620 I mean, uh, you know, when I read Mark Levin wrote about, uh, that book about American Marxists, I didn't know these names didn't, you know, really register, but you can see it all around you.

00:45:56.620 When you know that people like George Soros are financing this with their, uh, nonprofits, with their open borders, their, uh, uh, you know, nonprofits that are funding the cashless bail.

00:46:08.080 And you had a situation this week where, uh, uh, a bunch of people, terror terrorists attack, like the police academy in Atlanta, Georgia.

00:46:17.480 And one of them was a lawyer for the Southern poverty law legal center.

00:46:21.240 And what it is, is it's like you said, it's a Marxist communist, uh, plot where they know who they are.

00:46:28.000 And they're basically, you know, trying to take down every institution of value in America so that, so that a handful of people can, you know, take over the government and tell the rest of us what to do.

00:46:38.100 And, uh, take away our democracy and our freedoms and our right to free speech.

00:46:42.520 So, uh, so this is an existential battle because the standard part is, uh, the establishment, the elites in the country, you know, they would rather have control.

00:46:52.040 Like the Republican party is the first hurdle in that, um, you've got a situation where the grassroots in the Republican party, uh, really resent what the country club Republicans are doing to us right now.

00:47:04.340 And basically they need to realize that the caddies are now about to take over the country club and we're going to run it and we're going to get our president elected again.

00:47:13.720 And we're tired of them losing elections or going along with, uh, with the Democrats.

00:47:18.440 I mean, you know, people talk about last November's election.

00:47:21.640 They were trying to blame it on Trump.

00:47:22.820 Well, twice the Republicans in the Senate voted with the Democrats to spend trillions of dollars on infrastructure bills that, you know, I'm not seeing the infrastructure.

00:47:34.340 I mean, and, and all this inflation reduction act, I haven't seen inflation reduced.

00:47:40.420 I mean, we needed to stop spending last year and have a big fight before the election so we could take the Senate.

00:47:46.020 Instead, we had Republicans go along with it.

00:47:48.640 It absolutely undermined what we needed to do.

00:47:51.820 Fortunately, house candidates took, took the Democrats on and inflation and we won just enough to take over the house.

00:47:58.940 And now a lot of these house members are doing what they said they were going to do.

00:48:03.900 And they're showing the corruption of the Biden administration, specifically the Biden family.

00:48:09.160 They're, they're going after China in a way that, that, you know, letting Americans know how China has abused us and taking our jobs and spied on us and is exploiting us right now.

00:48:19.620 And, you know, they're, they're, they're, they're going to fight to stop taxes and they're going to fight to stop the wasteful spending.

00:48:26.380 But it's the backbenchers that are, that are leading that fight because the people are behind them.

00:48:31.520 And for the first time, the conservatives in the party, in the house are, are truly represented across all of the committees and, and with, with good placement in the, really the most important committees, judiciary, the subcommittee you just mentioned on weaponization.

00:48:50.420 Uh, James Comer is chairman of the oversight committee.

00:48:54.580 I mean, the list goes on, uh, strong conservative voices, uh, and minds leading those, uh, those efforts.

00:49:02.200 It is, and they're off in my judgment to a very good start.

00:49:06.700 Uh, I, you know, the test will be of course, in the months ahead, but, uh, even now, uh, as we, as we sit here discussing this, the, the national left-wing corporate meetings,

00:49:20.420 media is refusing to hold to account Joe Biden, his administration or regime.

00:49:26.780 If you prefer, he's refusing to hold to account Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer or the deep state that continues to bedevil and politically persecute president, uh, Donald Trump.

00:49:39.320 Uh, it's, it is a moment in history that is building towards something very large, very important.

00:49:47.080 And, and this destabilization that we're witnessing, not only in this country, but in Europe as well, uh, and to a, a degree in Asia as well.

00:49:58.080 This is deeply troubled.

00:50:00.980 I totally agree.

00:50:02.280 I was in Europe last week, seeing clients over there and you can see the people of, of Europe resent right now.

00:50:09.620 The fact that they're suffering because of these sanctions that they're paying, you know, higher gas, fuel prices, et cetera.

00:50:16.760 And certainly they're, they don't like Russia.

00:50:18.960 They want to, they're strong NATO allies that they don't want to be invaded.

00:50:23.280 But on the other hand, they, there is no game plan from Joe Biden about how to end the war.

00:50:29.040 Donald Trump has said he would end it in 24 hours.

00:50:31.420 And it certainly would have happened, would not have happened, uh, if he was president, you know, no way Vladimir Putin would have gone into Ukraine when Trump was president.

00:50:39.920 Cause he would have known the consequences.

00:50:42.320 And, you know, you're seeing right now where, uh, you know, people, you know, people are concerned about the war spreading and, and, and catastrophic consequences.

00:50:51.420 Where there's intelligence reports coming out and we've got to worry about China and Russia and North Korea and Iran.

00:50:59.740 Iran is very close to having a nuclear weapon if they don't already have it.

00:51:04.120 And, uh, you know, these, these are really rogue states.

00:51:07.900 They're not democratic.

00:51:09.400 Um, and you, you know, the world is very worried about what's going on right now.

00:51:15.060 And they, they're not getting the leadership from America that they had with Donald Trump as president and, uh, or that they've seen in the past from the United States.

00:51:24.200 So a couple of questions is, is, and I know you're limited in your time, but just a, just a couple of more questions.

00:51:30.800 What do you think of the, and I know this may be difficult, if not impossible for you to answer, but I'm curious about whether or not the political team, the president has around him right now, in your judgment as a professional.

00:51:42.360 Uh, is better than what he had in 2020.

00:51:46.820 We're speaking about Joe Biden or president Trump.

00:51:50.180 President Trump.

00:51:51.220 Good.

00:51:51.680 Uh, it's better.

00:51:53.080 It's leaner and meaner.

00:51:54.580 Um, you've got, uh, Susie Wilesman managing things. 1.00

00:51:57.920 She met, ran Florida twice for the Trump campaign and we won decisively twice.

00:52:03.580 Uh, you have Chris Lasavita in there and I've, I've worked with Chris before with Senator George Allen and when, when George was governor as well.

00:52:11.420 Um, and we've worked together since then.

00:52:13.920 And Chris, uh, is known for running the, uh, super PAC efforts for the SWIFO veterans against John Kerry.

00:52:22.920 Um, and Jason Miller's background in communications.

00:52:26.460 So there's, he's building a leaner, meaner team and they are raising money now as he goes in campaigns, you know, but not the big dollar country club sets.

00:52:35.980 Ironically, he's the blue collar billionaire that, uh, uh, people of America will send him 50, a hundred dollars online because they know he represents their interests.

00:52:46.580 And, uh, you know, it is going pretty well, right.

00:52:49.780 From what I hear right now, particularly after the CPAC speech where he really, you know, let the establishment have it and he's coming out with very specific plans.

00:52:59.540 A lot of his videos aren't really getting wide play from the mainstream media, but he's come out with specific plans about what he's going to do with the federal government, how he's going to close the border.

00:53:08.740 Uh, what he's going to do with China and trade and manufacturing.

00:53:12.540 Um, but it's, it's all basically, you know, messages that would play to the heartland.

00:53:19.120 So I think the messages are better.

00:53:21.900 The, uh, uh, the basically that he's taking the offense that he's taking the battle to Joe Biden.

00:53:28.880 Um, I mean, he attacks president Biden every day, if he can, the fact that he is going into places with where, uh, he's drawing a sharp, sharp contrast between Biden's failures and his successes.

00:53:41.380 And with specific plans that are different than, you know, beyond what he did as president himself.

00:53:47.440 So I think, you know, four years ago, they were afraid that, well, they, they didn't think Donald Trump would win.

00:53:55.040 Now they're afraid he's going to win and it's going to get tougher because, you know, Alvin Bragg, I mean, the Soros DA in Manhattan is holding, you know, like he's, he's, he's holding a grand jury talking about indicting the president on some stuff from the past campaign.

00:54:13.380 You know, I mean, they're going to do whatever they can to stop him.

00:54:17.320 And, and, and even as we speak, the fact that the videos from, uh, the January 6th committee that weren't released that Kevin McCarthy, Speaker McCarthy released down, people can see here.

00:54:28.800 They are the police leading Capitol police, for some reason, leading these protesters into the Senate chambers, into the halls of Congress.

00:54:37.760 And now you've got people in jail after being, you know, literally what some legal people are calling entrapped, uh, by the way, there's these, this, this video leaves no question about the entrapment of the, uh, the shaman, so-called, the man with the, the Viking hat, uh, and furs.

00:54:57.360 Uh, he was, he, he was being, without question, escorted through the Capitol, uh, and there was no tension even in the moment, let alone in any act that he, that he took.

00:55:10.680 So when we see all of this, uh, when the Americans see it for themselves, and I love the fact that Chuck Schumer is outraged that Tucker Carlson showed video, uh, to the American people of that day, uh, saying it's the most horrible thing he's ever witnessed.

00:55:27.340 And his life, uh, when in fact, that tells you everything you need to know about these Marxist Democrats, and that is that they would rather tell you what you're seeing than allow you to see it. 0.95

00:55:38.080 And if the American people are stupid enough to put these, uh, uh, these Trotskyites back, uh, in office, I, I will be, I will be stunned this time. 0.99

00:55:48.640 No, Schumer, what a disgrace. 0.99

00:55:50.900 He got on the Senate floor yesterday and called for censorship of, of Fox news.

00:55:55.720 Yeah.

00:55:56.160 And, you know, some of us, you know, have, you know, differences about how they've covered some of the things, but let me tell you, uh, you know, to, for the Senate leader of the United States to call for censorship, because he knows that ultimately he and Nancy Pelosi made a decision not to call the national guard, not to put fencing around the Capitol as they've done at the white house.

00:56:18.720 And, uh, you know, and then they had January 6th committee where they wouldn't even allow Trump Republicans on the committee.

00:56:27.960 It was a kangaroo court.

00:56:29.000 So this is an existential battle for the future of America.

00:56:33.000 Like we've never seen before this election that's coming up. 0.97

00:56:36.540 And, you know, I have to say this, you know, damn the national corporate media because they have the power as well as the responsibility to have held these Democrats to account. 0.94

00:56:49.020 Uh, and they have, uh, and they have, uh, uh, grease the, the way forward, uh, into decline for this nation because of, uh, their conduct over the last six years. 0.97

00:56:59.500 Uh, and you mentioned brag, I mean, we look around at these George Soros, uh, DAs, uh, playing politics, Fulton County.

00:57:07.940 What a, what a strange place that, uh, we would see, uh, uh, uh, indictments for, uh, Donald Trump emanating from, uh, you know, one of the most left-wing counties in the, in the country.

00:57:21.800 Well, you saw the, you saw the video of the, of the grand jury for woman.

00:57:27.280 Yeah. 0.90

00:57:27.820 The witch.

00:57:28.800 You're right.

00:57:29.200 The Wiccan. 0.91

00:57:30.140 It's like, she's bizarre.

00:57:32.020 And, and it's like, by the way, once you saw that, and once you saw the, these videos from January 6th, you know, it's undermining their, you know, this is the, the Democrats of the party that gave us two phony impeachments.

00:57:45.380 And, and wasted.

00:57:46.820 And two phony special counsels too.

00:57:49.060 Right.

00:57:49.320 To, to, to stop the leader of the working men and women of the United States that God helped them that if the, if the taxpayers really run the country instead of them and, you know, we're not going to be stopped this time.

00:58:02.600 Yeah.

00:58:03.180 It, we'd better not be because I said that this, the, the, the election of 2022 was existential, that the Republicans had to win, uh, at least the house.

00:58:14.980 They did just that just barely.

00:58:17.600 This can't be close in 2024.

00:58:21.320 Uh, and, and by the way, Ronna McDaniel is not that person to lead the RNC. 0.62

00:58:27.220 Uh, this is, this had better not be amateur hour because there won't be any surviving it for this country.

00:58:33.220 Uh, do you, do you agree?

00:58:36.160 Well, uh, as far as Ronna and the RNC, I've never worked for them.

00:58:39.520 Uh, well, she's been the leader.

00:58:41.380 So I really don't know.

00:58:42.060 This is your chance to get a contract.

00:58:43.920 I've only, I've only, uh, by the way, when Reagan was president, Arthur Finkelstein, I worked for his firm, you know, we did work for the president of Reagan through the RNC.

00:58:53.300 Uh, when, uh, George W. Bush was president, uh, they hired us to, you know, after I worked for Steve Forbes, they hired us through the RNC to do work for President Bush, get him reelected.

00:59:04.480 Uh, but when you work for President Trump, they don't hire you.

00:59:08.180 So I don't know what's the problem with that.

00:59:10.720 It must be my problem, I guess.

00:59:13.580 Well, it's, it's actually Ronna McDaniel's problem. 0.82

00:59:17.240 Uh, and it's the Republican party's problem because the people you're talking about country club Republicans, man, that isn't a bunch.

00:59:25.700 Uh, but it's all, it's an insult to every country club in the country.

00:59:29.860 Frankly, wouldn't say that.

00:59:31.460 Uh, we always give our guests the last word, as you know, John, uh, you're concluding thoughts here.

00:59:37.100 Well, you know, the great thing is we've started the year with some momentum.

00:59:41.140 The country's problems have gotten even more serious.

00:59:43.800 And clearly when, when you're looking at that, people are really worried about the inflation, the economy, immigration, and the border crime in our streets.

00:59:53.920 Um, the only way we're going to solve this is a major change in the election.

00:59:57.180 And it's a marathon.

00:59:58.180 We, we are going to have to fight for this every day through the 320 days until we get to Iowa and win the caucuses.

01:00:06.100 Eight days later, win New Hampshire.

01:00:08.100 Then we've got to win in February.

01:00:09.700 We've got to win in South Carolina.

01:00:11.160 And once Donald Trump has the nomination again, the Democrats and the national establishment will go all out in every way possible to stop him.

01:00:21.580 So, uh, this is a historic battle coming again, and we've got to make sure that we elect again our historic president who beat them in 2016 and make sure we beat them again.

01:00:31.120 John McLaughlin, as always, great to have you with us.

01:00:35.460 Thanks, my friend.

01:00:36.560 Thank you.
