00:00:00.000 hello everybody and welcome to the great america show it's great to have you with us
00:00:06.240 i hope you're all having a great day your days are about to get better now that you're here with us
00:00:10.520 here on the great america show as always we appreciate you spending part of your day with
00:00:13.980 us on this show the 2020 election it's something that the marxist dams and the rhinos in the party
00:00:21.280 they want to put in the rearview mirror because you know they don't want to talk about stolen
00:00:26.080 elections or anything that's happened or the consequences of stolen elections or what was
00:00:31.220 done to donald trump for the last four years because of a stolen election well cash patel
00:00:36.540 he's been getting a bad rep lately but he's got some good news out today cash patel has handed
00:00:41.560 congress an intelligence report that raises concerns that china mass-produced fraudulent
00:00:47.660 american driver's license for fake mail-in ballots during the 2020 election just the news john
00:00:54.840 salman good friend of the show uh said that patel handed the information over to the senate
00:00:58.800 judiciary committee chairman chuck grassley who had raised concern that the fbi intelligence
00:01:03.760 had not been fully vetted even though he believed there was evidence of fake licenses being used now
00:01:09.280 this is from the fbi this isn't from some sham it's about time we start talking about the 2020
00:01:15.540 election i think donald trump needs to get focused on it he needs to assure that it never happens again
00:01:21.620 to another republican in this country the democrats will steal as many elections as they deem necessary
00:01:27.300 to retain and control power as they seem necessary so we need to get serious about it and ensure
00:01:34.600 that it never happens again to another person republican or democrat but they're the ones who are doing it so
00:01:41.320 it's mostly to republicans uh the issue of iran and israel uh president trump tweeting out on truth
00:01:48.940 earlier today that america now has complete control over the skies of iran as he has iran in a very very
00:01:55.620 vulnerable position president trump of course leaving the g7 early yesterday get back to dc to get some
00:02:01.900 work he didn't really care to stay for the dinners and to schmooze with people that don't like him and
00:02:06.740 quite frankly he doesn't like them manuel macron of course uh getting involved as he usually does
00:02:13.260 telling reporters after president trump left the g summit quote i want people to to be safe and
00:02:18.900 president trump is heading back to dc to uh work on what he called it was a ceasefire president trump
00:02:25.220 uh not taking uh lightly to macron not knowing anything uh president trump posting on truth social
00:02:32.240 quote publicly speaking uh president emmanuel macron of france mistakenly said that i left the g7 in
00:02:39.220 canada go back to dc to work on quote a ceasefire between israel and iran wrong he has no idea why i'm
00:02:46.060 on my way to washington but it certainly has nothing to do with a ceasefire much bigger than that
00:02:51.160 so macron president trump finishing emmanuel always gets it wrong stay tuned and uh as president trump
00:03:01.000 has said they're working on such something much bigger than that president trump making it clear that
00:03:04.860 iran is to never get a nuclear weapon to be used on the world so much to talk about today folks our
00:03:11.360 guests weekly favorite here on the great america show the great roger stone we're going to take up
00:03:16.460 all of this going on in iran what's going on here at home the ice raids are continuing president trump
00:03:22.400 not slowing them down only ramping them up there's so much to talk about today here on the great america show
00:03:27.760 roger as always it's great to have you with us on the great america show i love the outfit let's start
00:03:40.400 with first trump leaving the g7 early but it wasn't before just about every single person in that place
00:03:46.380 kissed his butt including carney let's take a listen to uh the new um leader of canada
00:03:52.400 nostalgia isn't a strategy we have to change uh with the times uh and to build a better world and
00:04:01.420 some of you such as you mr president have anticipated these massive changes and are taking bold uh measures
00:04:07.960 uh to address them all of us around this table are reinforcing our militaries and security uh services
00:04:15.200 for the new world uh but we all know that there can be no security without economic prosperity
00:04:20.780 um and no prosperity without resilience and in a world where shocks flow across the borders
00:04:27.200 that resilience comes from cooperation cooperation uh around that starts around what do you make of
00:04:34.400 it roger well america's back because we have a new leader can you imagine anybody kissing joe biden's
00:04:41.860 butt like that i mean uh and uh the president has made it very clear that he prefers commerce over chaos
00:04:48.780 uh the brits have now signed a a beneficial tariff agreement in the end they all will uh that is
00:04:57.300 of course unless the u.s courts get in the way and say the president united states doesn't have the
00:05:02.260 authority to negotiate tariff agreements with other countries which some obscure court that no one ever
00:05:09.620 heard of the court of international trade in manhattan new york tried to say the president couldn't do
00:05:15.200 i mean these people are really ridiculous uh it's amazing the way the president dominated the entire
00:05:22.720 g6 proceedings i also i love the look on his face because he looks amused at these people he just looks
00:05:30.620 vaguely and faintly amused uh you know i i think that he is uh uh 10 years ago yesterday he came down
00:05:41.220 the golden escalator which you know for me was a fulfillment of us an idea and a dream that i'd had
00:05:48.440 since 1988 that's when i first recognized that trump had the stature uh and the energy and particularly
00:05:57.300 the independence uh and the courage to be not just a great presidential candidate but also a truly great
00:06:05.680 president and i've been more than proven right just if he'd only served one term i would have been proven
00:06:12.200 right but now i think a much much wiser donald trump uh in a second term uh is fulfilling you know all of
00:06:24.160 my expectations in spades in terms of closing the border deporting dangerous uh illegals renegotiating all
00:06:32.800 of these one-sided trade deals where we were disadvantaged cutting taxes cutting regulation
00:06:39.360 that's very important i think people lose sight of it uh giving robert f kennedy jr the authority he
00:06:46.620 needs to make america healthy again i mean he really is fulfilling uh you know everything he's promised us
00:06:53.360 uh and now of course he has this very thorny problem uh of iran and what to do about it
00:07:00.500 um i guess my view here is first of all i'm not going to react to what i see on twitter
00:07:06.600 or x uh i want to hear what the president's doing from the president himself when he's ready to tell us
00:07:13.260 yesterday there's so many conflicting reports on the one hand he's telling people to uh to abandon
00:07:20.700 tehran uh then others are saying that he's told our allies that we will not attack iran unless
00:07:26.640 u.s interests are directly attacked john i really don't know what to think here's what i do know
00:07:33.000 uh and that is he has more information than i do i owe my life to him i will support whatever
00:07:39.640 decision he makes i myself more of a non-interventionist more uh along the lines of
00:07:46.880 ron paul and those who say we should not get involved on the other hand to pretend that the
00:07:53.960 regime is not evil to pretend that whenever they get a nuclear device that they won't share it with
00:08:00.760 their crazy proxies hamas and hezbollah and the houthis is unrealistic uh and there i don't believe
00:08:08.420 they'll ever give this up in negotiation i think they were stalling buying time waiting for the u.n
00:08:13.620 resolutions to expire but i don't think they'll ever really give up the bomb uh and and uh use
00:08:20.640 nuclear just for electricity uh and other peaceful purposes so um i'll stick with the president when
00:08:27.580 he makes a decision but i don't think he's made one yet yeah we're gonna get to that i i want to just
00:08:32.400 talk briefly back about the g7 but as it relates to this is you've got guys like macron telling trump
00:08:39.700 what to do in iran and what to do with this the day trump ever took any advice from that man who
00:08:44.980 gets beat up by his wife is probably the last day that president trump will be in office that man has
00:08:49.860 never gotten anything right and he continues to get everything wrong but it was funny to see president
00:08:54.940 trump's got this weird way and you've known him far longer than i have he's got this weird way of
00:09:00.260 when he gets into a room of people who don't like him making them feel as uncomfortable as possible
00:09:06.140 and he gets that meeting with carney and his wife and his wife you could tell clearly not happy to
00:09:12.100 see president trump and trump looks to carney and he goes there was a hundred percent chance of rain
00:09:18.140 over the weekend in dc 100 chance it didn't rain one bit and carney's sitting there like what the hell
00:09:24.340 is he talking about the wife said they're like what the hell is he talking about but he gets these
00:09:27.920 people into a position where they're like nobody can read nobody could understand what his next move
00:09:34.740 is and i think that is just so brilliant uh from a from a world leader well this is one of the things
00:09:42.500 that i first saw in 1988 is this this presence he has presence so when i when i refer to his size i
00:09:50.360 obviously don't mean his physical size although obviously he's very tall and broad-shouldered but i'm
00:09:55.660 talking about his stature his ability to not only fill a room but to but to dominate the room uh and he has
00:10:04.080 as you point out his own way of communicating he calls it weaving which i think is is interesting
00:10:12.340 uh and he knows those people don't like him he knows that they're elitist snobs who resent the fact
00:10:20.320 uh that he was elected and they probably preferred dealing you know with joe biden who was non-compass
00:10:27.360 mentis who was literally a vegetable uh i don't know cabbage maybe i'm not sure which vegetable but
00:10:33.700 cucumber perhaps uh so and they could push him around they clearly see their efforts to push him
00:10:44.300 uh on the war in ukraine are not working uh and uh i think they're very very frustrated
00:10:51.480 that america is now playing the the role we were meant to play i'll tell you one thing they resent
00:10:57.940 the fact that he's made them all pay up in terms of their past due nato dues i mean we were we were
00:11:05.860 carrying all of these countries germany france yeah uh italy we were carrying them as if they don't
00:11:13.700 have the money when they do have the money and even in his first term i think it was he brought in
00:11:18.900 600 we're the ones who don't have the money we're dead broke well we're 37 trillion in debt or
00:11:26.880 something like that but uh that's all on paper because our money's backed by anything anyway
00:11:31.700 yeah well that you know what that brings to the point they never did that fort knox uh gold tour i
00:11:37.260 guess the the they were worried about what menendez got to before he by the way i think he heads to jail
00:11:42.460 today he does so much by the way for the reports which i think i broke the story he definitely
00:11:48.600 made an effort to reach out to trump for it uh as did the guy who supplied the gold neither one of
00:11:56.580 them will get pardoned i don't think either one was even seriously considered for a pardon but you
00:12:02.400 raise an excellent point uh elon raised that uh no one has seen the gold at fort knox or at the new york
00:12:10.660 uh federal reserve which is where the rest of the gold is supposed to be yeah it's 1974 and then it was
00:12:18.720 in the news cycle and then it suddenly disappeared uh and elon who i like uh i think did great things
00:12:26.380 for this country first in establishing the premier uh free speech social media site in the country
00:12:34.620 uh and then through doge where he absolutely proved that there was not millions not billions but
00:12:42.260 trillions of dollars in waste fraud and corruption but above all exposing the complete fraud of usa id which
00:12:52.300 is nothing but a slush fund for the radical left which they pay for every kind of crazy political
00:12:58.900 scheme uh and plot uh you can imagine not to mention a large number of circumcisions that i don't think
00:13:06.180 they ever really paid for so uh but elon was going to go inspect the gold as part of his doge mission
00:13:15.020 and then just didn't hear anything more about it which makes me believe that the gold is not there
00:13:19.980 that the gold has somehow been dissipated or stolen uh the irony of that of course is if that were true
00:13:27.120 it wouldn't affect the value of our currency at all because our currency is no longer back to gold this
00:13:34.020 was of course my my mentor richard nixon's probably his single greatest mistake uh whenever john whenever
00:13:42.300 i write something favorable about nixon i did a piece two days ago about the crucial role nixon played in
00:13:49.260 saving israel from complete annihilation in the 1973 yom kippur war people always say yeah but he
00:13:56.660 but he took us off the gold standard this is his biggest mistake well yes i agree i've written two
00:14:01.640 books on richard nixon it's prominent in both books i agree it was among his greatest mistakes but
00:14:08.700 say what was not among his greatest mistakes and that was reaching out to china so those who say
00:14:14.960 oh well nixon's responsible for china's threat to america today no at the time china was a dirt poor
00:14:21.980 uh agrarian society with no technology they didn't even have indoor plumbing most people didn't have
00:14:28.280 toilets uh the rural areas did not have electricity uh there was no way for nixon to see that 30 years
00:14:35.660 later bill clinton would not only give them most favored nation trading status but he would also sell
00:14:44.540 them for illegal campaign contributions are missile targeting technology in the so-called laurel scandal
00:14:52.280 so you cannot blame richard nixon for the danger that china opposes us today he had no way of looking
00:14:59.520 30 years into the future to see that we were going to supply them with the technology to make them a
00:15:05.220 dangerous country the the gold standard is an interesting one because we wouldn't be nearly 40
00:15:10.680 trillion dollars in debt today if if our money was backed by gold because eventually you'd run out
00:15:15.680 of gold uh for how much money that these people were spending
00:15:18.700 i want to turn to to this whole iran israel and now america conflict a few months ago someone you
00:15:32.240 admire greatly and i i admire greatly tulsi gabbard testified uh before senate committee that
00:15:38.520 iran was not at the point of getting a nuclear weapon yet and then president trump saying uh today or
00:15:47.260 earlier this morning on air force one he doesn't care what she has to say let's let's roll the clip
00:15:51.440 iran's cyber operations and capabilities also present a serious threat to u.s networks and data
00:15:56.900 the ic continues to assess that iran is not building a nuclear weapon and supreme leader
00:16:02.940 khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003
00:16:07.900 the ic continues to monitor closely if tehran decides to reauthorize its nuclear weapons program
00:16:14.720 in the past year we've seen an erosion of a decades-long taboo in iran on discussing nuclear
00:16:20.500 weapons in public likely emboldening nuclear weapons advocates within iran's decision-making
00:16:25.980 apparatus iran's enriched uranium stockpile is at its highest levels and is unprecedented for a state
00:16:33.500 without nuclear weapons iran will likely continue efforts to counter israel and press for u.s military
00:16:39.980 withdrawal from the region by aiding arming and helping to reconstitute its loose consortium of
00:16:45.840 like-minded terrorists and militant actors which it refers to as its axis of resistance
00:16:51.800 although weakened this collection of actors still presents a wide range of threats including to
00:16:58.180 israel's population u.s forces deployed in iraq and syria and to u.s and international military and
00:17:04.800 commercial shipping and transit so tulsi that's a few months ago president trump this morning saying
00:17:11.580 he doesn't care so you know i'm sort of in the middle with you i don't know what the plan is roger
00:17:17.660 i don't know what should be done if i did i wouldn't be doing this i'd be in the pentagon uh there's an
00:17:23.840 issue clearly iran can never have a nuclear weapon but at the same time how many regimes does america
00:17:30.540 have to overturn and overthrow uh before it's enough afghanistan iraq i mean the list goes on and
00:17:37.760 on syria um is this a war that america should be fighting actually it's a war that israel should be
00:17:45.300 fighting on the other hand that was a very sober and i think balanced uh report by tulsi gabber she
00:17:52.500 doesn't say they're not dangerous she doesn't say they don't have enriched uh uranium in fact she
00:17:57.780 she says they have the highest level of it they've ever had uh all she says is that we don't believe
00:18:04.940 they are close to having a bomb president contradicted that this morning i'm assuming
00:18:10.580 that his uh intelligence is coming from israel but then john as you pointed out off camera
00:18:17.300 netanyahu just blurts out that the iranians tried twice to kill trump we don't know that
00:18:24.900 we don't let's roll that we got that clip let's roll that for the audience he was on with brett
00:18:28.240 bear yesterday i want to talk about the nuclear threat i want to talk about president trump you
00:18:31.480 just said uh that iran tried to assassinate president trump twice do you have intel that
00:18:36.980 the assassination attempts on president trump were directly from iran through proxies yes through uh
00:18:43.660 through their intel yes they want to kill him look he's enemy number one he's a decisive leader he's
00:18:49.660 uh he never took the path that others took to try to bargain with him in a way that is weak giving
00:18:56.060 them giving them basically a pathway to enrich uranium which means a pathway to the bomb patting it with
00:19:01.580 billions and billions of dollars he took up this fake agreement and basically tore it up uh he killed
00:19:07.900 the khasem soleimani he said made it very clear including now you cannot have a nuclear weapon which
00:19:13.740 means you cannot enrich he's been very forceful so for them he's uh he's uh enemy number one yeah uh
00:19:20.140 look they also tried to kill me but i'm his junior partner when they understand so he says that they try
00:19:26.620 to kill him with no evidence doesn't support anything he says does iran want donald trump dead i'd say
00:19:31.900 dead i'd say definitively yes just based on on on what he's done uh not what he's done it's great
00:19:39.180 what he's done uh with stifling these people but you you're gonna tell me benjamin netanyahu that you
00:19:45.900 knew that thomas cooks or whatever his name was and the other guy who couldn't get through the gate
00:19:51.260 to try to shoot trump on the golf course we're gonna shoot trump but you didn't know your intel didn't
00:19:55.980 tell you that october 7th was gonna happen inside your country it just smells to high heaven to me
00:20:01.660 roger yeah and he's you notice his answer it was very vague and he moved off of it very quickly
00:20:08.940 i mean look the the fbi tells me that the iranians uh hacked my email prior to the election uh simply
00:20:17.260 because i was in touch with a number of people inside the trump campaign yeah i by the way found
00:20:22.380 no evidence of that at all just couldn't find it within my email uh i i don't doubt that i was hacked
00:20:29.980 but i'm not sure it was by the iranians now somebody tried to kill donald trump uh the the one guy ryan
00:20:36.940 routh uh clearly has ties to ukraine yeah not iran but ukraine uh and i had a number of sources who came
00:20:48.540 to me that said they actually met him in ukraine they actually uh confronted him uh in ukraine uh i think
00:20:55.980 that that is much more likely if there is foreign involvement uh in the in the two attempts to kill
00:21:03.660 donald trump i think it is far more likely uh has to do with the ukraine war but again i don't know uh
00:21:12.620 hopefully kash patel has a better view on this than we do but to me that was a talking point also
00:21:19.820 calling himself a junior partner i mean this guy is really sucking up big time in his efforts to try
00:21:27.020 to manipulate donald trump who is of course the master manipulator himself and when it comes to
00:21:34.060 to getting his way and to the way he has an uncanny ability to read people he can read people extremely
00:21:43.500 well uh i don't think he this idea that he can be forced to do anything he doesn't want to do
00:21:51.180 those people don't know the donald trump that i know uh and i think he's faced with some very tough
00:21:56.140 decisions here but again i'm glad that it's trump and not joe biden or god forbid kamala harris making
00:22:04.220 those decisions right now yeah i used to joke with lou i called it mind warfare and lou and donald were
00:22:11.980 very very similar and trump used to joke with him all the time about how similar they were
00:22:17.180 it's a it's a way to get into people's heads to understand their rationale and their thinking and
00:22:21.420 it's a skill to have it's not something that everyone has donald trump and lou dobs are two
00:22:25.660 the only people that i know that i can think of that have this capability to get inside someone's
00:22:30.700 head to get them to reveal what they're actually thinking whether it be you know their inner ego or
00:22:36.060 whatever it may be it's truly uh fascinating so i mean where do we go from here do you think uh
00:22:43.900 america donald trump has rejected getting involved in this war and like you i'm on both sides i i am
00:22:49.340 under the opinion that uh that uh iran should be wiped off the face of the earth but i'm not convinced
00:22:56.060 it should be yet uh do we wait for them to launch a weapon or do we launch a weapon you know it's a tough
00:23:01.340 position to be in it's definitely not an easy one to be in but at the same time i look and i say to
00:23:06.380 myself israel launched all these attacks why didn't they use their full capability uh i had doug mcgregor
00:23:13.340 on this show the other day and he said you know this is a a small attack small scale attack comparatively
00:23:18.780 to what it should have been and if they don't follow up in it it's going to pose a very big problem
00:23:23.660 for israel why launch such a small scale attack on them and not go for the kill yeah i know i i as you
00:23:31.740 know i also had uh colonel mcgregor on my show it was a very good interview i mean there is a serious
00:23:38.380 question as to whether the the fordow nuclear facility where they're allegedly building the bomb
00:23:46.140 uh can be taken out technologically by the israelis that some military experts say that only we have
00:23:53.980 the 30 000 pound bunker buster bomb capable of doing that colonel mcgregor said i'm not even he's not even
00:24:02.940 sure that we have that capability but my guess is that's what netanyahu is trying to urge the president
00:24:11.180 to do uh i tend to agree with general flynn give the israelis anything they need anything they want
00:24:17.100 but we should we ourselves should not be uh should not be directly involved in attacking
00:24:25.020 iran unless uh it is uh certain to be ending those what we cannot afford is another long range uh ongoing
00:24:36.620 forever war where we end up committing troops and dollars colonel mcgregor made a very good point is
00:24:45.100 we're broke and we have spent a huge amount of our military capability i should say sent an
00:24:52.060 enormous amount of our military capability for ukraine we will be out of missiles here pretty quickly
00:24:58.940 uh these drones that they're using cost about 20 grand uh whereas uh intercontinental intercontinental
00:25:06.780 ballistic missile cost uh three and a half four million bucks as i understand it so um we are not in the
00:25:14.620 strong position that everyone believes we are uh although we're not in a weak position so i i'm with
00:25:22.140 you i'm kind of somewhere here in the middle i do support israel i do support their right to defend
00:25:27.500 themselves i do recognize the iranian regime is very dangerous people who say who don't even
00:25:33.900 support israel's attack i don't understand that either yeah i do support israel uh their right to
00:25:39.900 defend themselves uh and uh as for iran wanting to kill donald trump their leading uh mullah made a
00:25:49.260 statement two days ago calling for the assassination of trump vance every cabinet member and all their
00:25:55.580 families so there's no doubt about that in terms of their intent whether they were really involved
00:26:01.580 in the two assassination attempts i don't think we have any proof of that and i don't think netanyahu
00:26:08.060 does either yeah and you know what you can be on that side of that and i have a total
00:26:12.540 agreeance with you where you support israel but you don't want american troops on the ground
00:26:16.700 it doesn't make you anti-semitic it doesn't make you anti-israel but we've seen roger in the last
00:26:21.580 25 years how many of our children how many of our brothers and sisters brought back here in body
00:26:27.340 bags it's not america 77 million americans didn't vote for that they don't want that they don't want
00:26:33.100 troops on the ground in foreign countries we have a war here at home roger on our southern border
00:26:38.620 one where our troops we can assure that they're protected as well as possible right here in our
00:26:43.900 country protecting our border rather than sending them overseas we need to start taking care of america and
00:26:49.500 americans before we we continue to be the world's police and like you said i i don't disagree that
00:26:56.300 we should be giving israel everything they need to defeat these these islamic terrorists who want
00:27:01.500 america dead who have said they will turn america into uh what do you say nuclear ash i think is what
00:27:06.780 kamenese said a few years ago but i don't think president trump is at that point yet in fact he just
00:27:11.020 tweeted out earlier today quote we know exactly where the so-called supreme leader is hiding he's an easy
00:27:16.540 target but he is safe there we're not going to take him out and then in parentheses kill at least
00:27:21.660 not for now but we don't want missiles shot at civilians or american soldiers our patience is
00:27:26.620 wearing thin thank you for your attention to this matter and i think he's you know he's riffing with
00:27:32.620 tucker carlson right now i think they want the same exact things they just have a different approach to
00:27:37.500 how they're going and it doesn't make tucker carlson a bad guy it doesn't make people bad because you
00:27:42.780 don't want war it doesn't make you a rhino and usually roger i'm on the side of whatever lindsey
00:27:47.820 graham is for i'm against and lindsey graham is all for this oh yeah he wants to go all in but then
00:27:53.980 i guess he always likes it all in i don't know uh look he's uh is that what he's named lady g
00:28:00.860 i'm not going there uh you already went there
00:28:05.820 with a little nuance with a little nuance perhaps uh look trump is a man who means what he says he says
00:28:11.580 what he means he gave them 60 days they didn't come to the table and make a deal within 60 days
00:28:16.780 in the 61st day uh he told the israelis to go ahead and they did uh and to claim that they didn't do
00:28:24.780 serious damage they clearly did they killed a number of the top leaders uh they uh they i think they
00:28:31.420 really disrupted the command and control of the iranians on the other hand iran
00:28:36.300 bounced back it was more resilient than i think people expected experts expected uh and uh we
00:28:42.620 shouldn't pretend that the chinese uh or the pakistanis are just going to sit on the sidelines
00:28:48.460 here and do nothing china is still getting most of its oil from iranian sources now i think it is much
00:28:57.420 easier to degrade their uh their oil capability their energy production capabilities i think we
00:29:05.900 probably already disrupted that substantially when i say we israel i mean israel and i think israel can
00:29:12.940 do uh more damage there on the other hand the iron dome which so far had proven to be quite effective
00:29:20.780 uh as you know john some iranian missiles did get through their missile defense system uh and did
00:29:28.380 some damage no report on the casualties there uh one of the pieces that people miss when they criticize
00:29:36.780 the big beautiful bill which is absolutely crucial for us to pass because without it we get a 68 increase
00:29:45.260 in federal taxes overnight for every american not just for the wealthy for every american uh but also
00:29:52.220 in that bill is the funding for our own strategic defense initiative which trump has called the golden
00:29:58.140 dome uh this is something uh that i have supported since reagan was president they used to make fun of
00:30:05.020 us and call it star wars uh this the technology is far more sophisticated now of course than it was
00:30:12.780 then but it has worked to a great extent uh for israel and i think it will work for us uh clearly the
00:30:21.580 technology is not perfect but we don't know what technology they're utilizing we don't know whether
00:30:27.580 the technology that trump would use would be superior yeah congress has actually voted for much of this funding
00:30:35.740 but biden then just dragged his feet uh in terms of implementing it we should put the
00:30:41.580 uh the uh the the one for the east coast should be at fort drum uh in new york upper state new york for
00:30:47.020 example uh this is something elise stefan has been really really strong on and she's absolutely right
00:30:53.500 about uh so yet another reason why the big beautiful bill which is far from perfect i mean there's a lot
00:31:00.300 of stuff in there i don't like particularly this ai restrictions on states uh regulating the use of ai for 10 years
00:31:09.100 that that's troubling there's a number of smaller things in there that are troubling but again this
00:31:15.500 isn't the final version what what's what what the house will pass is not the final version uh and uh
00:31:23.420 these things can be worked out in conference and also in the senate yeah i'm partially sold on the on
00:31:28.540 the what trump calls the golden dome i think it makes sense in some cases in some cases it doesn't
00:31:33.020 it's gonna be hard to to put it across the whole united states does it make sense to put it around our
00:31:36.860 our biggest cities new york and california and la yeah absolutely uh that's probably where you want
00:31:42.620 it you want to put around our power grids or you know wherever they go but at the end of the day it's
00:31:46.460 only good for uh i guess surface missiles right missiles coming from the water you gotta get close
00:31:51.900 enough i'm glad that you brought up california because i was uh uh this this guy alex padilla the
00:31:59.100 the the almost unidentifiable senator from california and i i assume that gavin newsom purposely appointed
00:32:08.780 a bland non-entity to the senate seat because he didn't want to be overshadowed he's got enough
00:32:14.060 competition for the 2028 presidential nomination in kamala harris because if she chooses to run again
00:32:20.940 she's the instant front runner for sure she could be governor of california if she chooses to be which is
00:32:25.900 sad but i'm afraid true yeah uh and uh he she immediately overshadows him even though he's
00:32:32.220 more articulate than she is his move to the center where he had you know steve bannon and charlie kirk on
00:32:39.500 his podcast he quickly abandoned that uh to now go back and redefine himself as the anti-trump he hopes to
00:32:48.780 to raise his profile and kind of rebuild his disastrous political uh situation by rebranding
00:32:56.460 himself as the anti-trump otherwise the guy would have to run on his record and if you look at california
00:33:02.620 california is essentially a flaming wreck at this point it is could be the world's largest outdoor toilet
00:33:08.460 uh between crime and homelessness and uh drug abuse uh and taxes uh and these are people who
00:33:18.940 couldn't put out a massive fire because they turned off the water in order to save a tiny fish
00:33:25.980 from extinction that's how politically correct they are but this guy's uh uh actions uh in the briefing by
00:33:33.980 christy noem are really ominous i mean if you're a u.s senator and you want to ask a cabinet member
00:33:42.300 questions you can call her up and she'll take your call yeah you can set up a meeting and she'll be
00:33:47.100 happy to meet with you uh this guy is such a nondescript non-entity and his physical reactions
00:33:56.140 are if you watch the video and i've watched it now several times i mean he's menacing her
00:34:01.180 uh he he and nobody recognizes him as a u.s senator he says well it was on my it was on my polo shirt yes
00:34:09.500 but he's wearing a jacket over his polo shirt uh so the fact that it's on his shirt is immaterial
00:34:16.460 and here's the weirdest part if you go look at the guy they just arrested uh in uh uh in uh
00:34:23.660 uh michigan i guess it is or minnesota minnesota yeah minnesota who assassinated a number of their
00:34:31.180 state leaders he looks just like alex padilla i mean these guys look like they'd be brothers
00:34:37.100 uh that whole thing is very weird by the way it's an act he knew what he was doing this was an attempt
00:34:42.460 to get publicity and get attention uh and uh he's not just shouting a question at her he's trying to
00:34:49.500 lunge forward and he has to be stopped and he's warned several times he keeps coming so he deserved
00:34:55.980 to get handcuffed yeah yeah you're absolutely right california's going to hell in a hand basket it's
00:35:00.860 crazy because this whole administration is so transparent i can't think of a last time i've
00:35:04.780 seen a president of the united states like posting text messages you can get the guy on the phone you can
00:35:10.620 text message the president and he responds i mean you you know better than anyone there was a text from
00:35:15.740 you on on a screen him getting off air force one uh you know there's nobody easily more easily
00:35:21.980 accessible as the president of the united states than donald trump and his administration so it's
00:35:25.740 sad that these people have to stoop to these new lows and it all has to do with these ice raids roger
00:35:30.460 new poll out from harvard harvard harris who's marx's dem left that they did uh just last week 56 a
00:35:38.780 margin of 12 points 56 say they support the decision uh to send in these ice raids and the
00:35:45.660 national guard to help these people this is what the american people voted for these marxist dems if
00:35:51.020 they don't support it they should just sit back for their own good well and they continue to insist
00:35:56.620 that there's no need i mean they continue to insist that the demonstrations in california are peaceful
00:36:03.100 when we can see with our own eyes you know cars on fire uh ice agents being assaulted people throwing rocks
00:36:12.300 bottles uh chunks of concrete baggies full of urine and feces uh at at ice officers and other law
00:36:21.740 enforcement officers uh the president is completely uh within his right first of all we made a sound
00:36:29.660 judgment to send in uh the national guard and then gavin newsom sues him immediately saying he doesn't
00:36:37.260 have that authority because newsom as governor didn't ask for the national guard well let me give
00:36:42.860 you a hint gavin orville faubus the segregationist governor of arkansas didn't call for the national
00:36:50.060 guard when eisenhower sent the national guard into arkansas to to uh support desegregation of the schools
00:36:57.100 uh john f kennedy didn't get the permission or request from governor george wallace the segregationist
00:37:03.980 governor of alabama when he sent the national guard in to support the desegregation of the schools there
00:37:11.020 the president does not require a request or the acquiescence of a governor to activate the national
00:37:17.660 guard uh so that lawsuit was a waste of time it was a showboating uh to try to build gavin newsom's
00:37:25.740 national profile for a presidential bid uh absolutely absurd and by the way the situation
00:37:33.180 in la based on everything i've seen and read seems to be getting worse not better yeah so uh the the
00:37:39.580 riots the night before last the riots around a federal courthouse uh which the national guard and the
00:37:46.860 marines now have an absolute duty to protect uh was getting worse and not better uh and gavin newsom
00:37:53.980 she quit pretending otherwise yeah he's a terrible terrible person before we wrap up roger interesting
00:38:00.060 story the naacp has a convention every single year and this year it's in north carolina for the first
00:38:05.980 time in 116 years the sitting president of the united states being donald trump of course not being invited
00:38:12.060 to it 116 years now this is president trump i think performed better than any single president in
00:38:18.140 in the history of this country it was like 16 or 20 percent where it's 16 to 20 percent he pulled up
00:38:23.020 the black vote this time around it seems to me like they're looking to do another summer of love and
00:38:28.620 the racial divide the only problem is is these people aren't falling for it this time in my opinion
00:38:34.620 they've woken up and and the reason being is you look at the streets of la i don't see any blm anything
00:38:41.580 now 2020 you saw what they did with the summer of love in minneapolis not one blm sign or anything on
00:38:49.340 these streets in any of these riots that are happening do you think that that their eyes
00:38:54.620 have been opened that the democrats just want to draw a racial divide between blacks and whites
00:38:59.420 and blacks and any other race in this country i think there's a huge dichotomy between the so-called
00:39:06.220 black leadership uh who are really just partisans uh and and african-american voters and citizens in
00:39:16.060 the united states i mean donald trump is the only president who's done anything in terms of criminal
00:39:21.820 justice reform which had definitely been weaponized against people of color the first the first step
00:39:27.820 act the second chance act uh this provided real justice for people uh who had been caught in this
00:39:37.500 web uh caused by the 1994 crime bill written by racist joe biden signed by bill clinton uh bill clinton
00:39:46.780 who was governor of arkansas went to the supreme court to argue that racial profiling by the arkansas state
00:39:53.020 police was perfectly all right that bill clinton uh this is a law that mandated the harsh penalties
00:40:01.900 that were required for the first time non-violent crime of possession of small amounts of drugs
00:40:08.140 for personal use and that in turn was used to weaponize to destroy the lives of hundreds of thousands
00:40:15.660 if not millions of black people uh donald trump is the only president in our lifetimes done anything
00:40:22.380 about this the congressional black caucus which has called for the reform of these laws for decades
00:40:28.300 almost uniformly every member votes against trump's uh criminal justice reform packages
00:40:34.300 simply because it was proposed by donald trump yeah and then there's his economic record
00:40:40.220 unemployment uh among black voters in the united states at all-time lows under president donald trump
00:40:48.140 now you add his platinum plan which is really a plan for african-american empowerment in this country
00:40:55.260 i was looking at it again yesterday because it's very much based on uh an old nixonian concept of black
00:41:02.300 capitalism uh trump has done more for black americans than any president since abraham lincoln and that is a
00:41:10.780 fact the so-called black leadership naacp members of the black congressional caucus uh they they don't want
00:41:21.660 to admit it uh but i think your average black american sees it quite clearly and then when you have these these
00:41:32.780 black entertainers who have enormous social media followings saying it recognizing some of the
00:41:40.380 the pardons that he's given and his actual record on criminal justice reform i think that extends uh
00:41:48.380 and educates a lot of black voters who would otherwise not know that this constant drumbeat of trump
00:41:55.340 is a racist trump is a racist trump it's just false yeah i have a lot of black friends roger my god
00:42:01.500 daughter is is black and her parents did not support donald trump in 2020 by any stretch of the imagination
00:42:06.780 hated the man and this time around it's a complete different picture and i have to say the same for
00:42:12.620 most of my other black friends as well the the turn that he's taken because they've opened up their eyes
00:42:17.900 to realize that all the democrats have tried to do for the last eternity is create a racial divide that
00:42:24.140 the democrats are doing something for the black or hispanic communities and the republicans aren't and
00:42:28.620 donald trump is the first president to really bring this to the forefront to show that you guys are
00:42:34.060 are bullshit artists and you're lying and you're nothing but bad for the black community and donald trump
00:42:37.820 is has as you said a proven track record uh better than abraham lincoln for this community roger as
