The war in Ukraine has expanded to a full-fledged global war on truth. The Russians called for a U.N. Security Council meeting to charge the U.S. with supporting a biological weapons program in Ukraine. The White House denied the charges and said Russia called the meeting to give legitimacy to their disinformation campaign.
00:08:31.560Let's get them things that will be able to defend themselves because, as I was explaining in the video I saw this morning,
00:08:36.920having a normal suburban civilian vehicle isn't going to stand against a Russian tank.
00:08:41.840So if there's things that we can do to protect the civilians and the citizens of Ukraine, I think we absolutely have an obligation.
00:08:50.080I think we actually have a moral obligation to help in any way that we can.
00:08:54.300And Congress passed some aid last night, and I'm glad that they separated the Ukrainian aid from the rest of the reckless spending that the Democrats wanted to do
00:09:03.520that would send some aid, $14 billion of new aid for the Ukraine.
00:09:08.840Yes, and the passage of that legislation, critically important to the Ukrainians.
00:09:15.180And where are we now with this $1.5 trillion spending bill?
00:09:20.640Well, I mean, this is just one incredible record level of spending after another that is still being passed by this Congress, by the Senate,
00:09:31.100and signed by the president, will be signed by the president.
00:10:29.720It's just spending after spending after spending.
00:10:32.120And any economist will tell you if you dump a ton of cash on an economy and you're only taking in $3.5 trillion a year into the Federal Reserve but spending two or three times that, you are going to cause inflation.
00:10:46.360And it's just – it's reckless abandon.
00:10:49.200And we have federal programs like Social Security and Medicare.
00:10:52.560You have programs within those federal programs that are going to be expending more money in the next year or so than they're actually taking in.
00:11:00.700Congress has got to stop the spending spree that is Washington, D.C., and the Democrats absolutely will not do it.
00:11:08.040The four years I've been in Congress, all they do is these omnibus or these CRs, continuing resolutions to fund the government.
00:11:15.160This is the first omnibus that they've done.
00:11:17.400And it just is building and building on a spending that we cannot sustain economically in this country.
00:11:23.960And it almost appears as though this is a coordinated, orchestrated, finely thought-out plan on the part of the Biden administration and the Democratic Party.
00:11:36.540They're trying to drive as much cash into this economy as they can.
00:11:40.280And the idea that Jerome Powell in his second term now is chairman of the Federal Reserve, reappointed by President Biden, will do, what, three interest rate hikes, I think is pure nonsense, at least if they're – he might do three quarter of a percent increases.
00:11:59.820But he sure is not going to do anything approaching a half or better in the way of interest rates.
00:12:07.440Your thoughts about what will happen and what will happen as a result of the Democrats being in such poor shape?
00:12:16.040It looks like it's going to be an absolute slaughter in November.
00:12:19.760Well, I certainly hope it is going to be a slaughter.
00:12:23.180You have had crisis after crisis after crisis that it's almost – you almost have to pick one of the most offensive crises to focus the American people on how bad this administration, the Democrats are.
00:12:36.780I mean we have two million illegal immigrants that have crossed the border, and they're getting TANF and food stamps and SNAP and all these benefits that most Americans who are working aren't getting these benefits.
00:12:47.300You've got the atrocity that occurred in Afghanistan where you and I sitting here speaking, we still have Americans that are trapped in Afghanistan.
00:12:55.920We abandoned $80 billion worth of military equipment, ammunition, weapons, Humvees, Apaches, Blackhawks.
00:13:05.000Wouldn't it be nice if the Biden administration would have just transferred that $80 billion worth of military equipment to the Ukrainians instead of handing it over to a terrorist regime who's either going to sell it to the highest bidder, probably China or Russia, or use it for terrorist activity?
00:13:19.160On top of inflation, on top of inflation, on top of now Ukraine and their failures to do the things that they should have done long before they're now suddenly starting to react.
00:13:30.380It's almost like they're two weeks to a month behind doing what they should be doing and leading as a nation and leading as a country in this world and just kind of sitting back and waiting to see what happens.
00:13:41.860And then when there's so much of a rigor one way or the other, like putting sanctions on Russian oil, finally when the polls are like 80% of Americans support not importing Russian oil, suddenly then they decide to do something.
00:13:57.340They should have started these sanctions on the Russian government and on Putin and all these other things that we could have done as soon as he started putting troops on the Ukrainian border.
00:14:05.700And it would have had a huge, devastating effect on his economy before he even invaded.
00:14:11.120Yeah, and this administration is just making, it's almost preposterous to even think about taking them seriously.
00:14:22.880Here we are looking at an invasion, a war going on in Ukraine, and at the same time, we have to take them seriously.
00:14:32.360Obviously, Biden and Harris, she's giggling her way through Poland.
00:14:37.140He is sleeping his way through his presidency.
00:14:40.980He spends more time in his Delaware basement than he does doing anything else as president.
00:14:46.820We are in deep trouble as a nation because we don't have a, I would call it a leadership vacuum, but it's far worse than a vacuum.
00:14:57.120It's an explosion of incompetence and ineptitude.
00:15:00.820And I don't disagree with any of that.
00:15:03.160It's very disturbing to see Kamala Harris laughing and giggling her way through a press conference with the president of Poland talking about the refugees and the Ukrainians.
00:15:15.380And it's because the reporter before that clip, the reporter asked a very good, a very pointed question, and she clearly didn't either, one, know how to respond or even what to say.
00:15:27.000So she just kind of laughed her way through it and then deferred to the Poland president for him to talk about it.
00:15:32.480And it's because they don't know what their plans are.
00:15:39.240Biden's clearly not the one making the decisions.
00:15:41.480It's other people in the administration that are making the decisions.
00:15:44.500And they're so far behind what they should be doing.
00:15:47.680And what's just crazy to me is we all know that if Trump was still president, none of this would be going on.
00:15:54.820The atrocity that occurred in Afghanistan wouldn't have happened.
00:15:58.340The Russians wouldn't be emboldened by the weak leadership that they saw in Afghanistan and knowing that they have leverage over this administration to do whatever they want to do.
00:16:06.900And this administration is not going to do anything to stop them.
00:16:11.040And Biden has the very same team at the top for national security in his White House as did President Obama.
00:16:19.960They were regarded as incompetence then.
00:16:25.760As a matter of fact, they seem even more incompetent given their greater responsibilities now.
00:16:31.860Your thoughts about the carryover of Jake Sullivan, now and as National Security Advisor Tony Blinken, now Secretary of State, and Kamala Harris and the President of the United States, woefully inadequate to their responsibilities.
00:16:51.120Well, and that's a good point to make.
00:16:52.960And go back to in the 90s, you had the Budapest papers that were signed between Ukraine and Russia.
00:16:59.660In 2014, when Crimea was taken over, guess who was President and Vice President?
00:17:07.760And so Putin was already trying to see what he would be willing to get away with.
00:17:11.600And he violated the terms of that agreement that was signed in the 90s in 2014.
00:17:16.020And that prior administration did absolutely nothing to stop him.
00:17:19.400And he went forward and nothing happened.
00:17:22.140Then Trump came in and he didn't do a thing because Trump put sanctions on Russia.
00:17:26.240Trump put sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline to shore up so that he wouldn't have financial resources to do the things that he's doing.
00:17:33.140And one of the first things that Biden does when he comes in is lift the sanction on Nord Stream 2, open up billion dollars of revenue to Kremlin and to Moscow, and then sit back and wonder why the behavior is the way it is.
00:17:45.140It's because they should have sanctioned him back in 2014 when he was vice president and they violated the Budapest papers, but they didn't.
00:17:53.640And so Putin knew that he could get away with whatever because they're not going to hold to the terms of the agreement that they had back in 2014.
00:17:59.760And so you have emboldened what is happening right now.
00:18:03.720And you have a very tricky situation from a NATO ally or a Western country situation because you don't want to send in American troops.
00:18:12.260You don't want to send in American pilots with our equipment because you're engaging now on nuclear power and you're going to start World War III.
00:18:19.800But I absolutely think we should have done all these sanctions on the front end and a hard stance and strong leadership from the White House would have prevented all of this from happening.
00:18:28.740But now that we sit here, we have to provide what we can provide from a weapons and javelins and air defense artillery and all these things to help the Ukrainian people be able to defend themselves.
00:18:40.320And what does all of this say as Xi Jinping watches?
00:18:46.360What does it say to communist China and their ambitions to take over Taiwan?
00:18:54.400They're seeing the weakness in the White House.
00:18:56.320They're seeing that the whole the entire Western world and all the NATO allies are sitting by and letting the Russian army invade Ukraine, kill civilians, bomb places.
00:19:09.580I guess I guess NATO in the Western world is perfectly fine.
00:19:12.720Them taking over the Ukraine and and the Chinese Communist Party is watching every bit of this and knowing, OK, well, we can also act in Taiwan.
00:19:21.760And although the United States agreements there are different than they are with the Ukraine, clearly we're showing weak leadership and an unwillingness to engage and protect our allies, which Taiwan is one of those.
00:19:34.600So I can't help but think that the Chinese Communist Party is thinking through their war game scenario on how and when they they intend to go into Taiwan, knowing that, one, this administration is not going to do anything to stop them.
00:19:48.080And two, if you have war in Europe, you have the Iranians wanting a nuclear warhead and this administration is willing to put them on a path to to go back into the JCPOA.
00:19:58.220There have all these other things happening in the world and you're not focused on the Pacific.
00:20:02.960And it's it's a ripe opportunity for them to do something.
00:20:06.520And as we conclude, you mentioned the Iranian deal that is apparently a matter of days, perhaps a week or two away from being pulled together by this administration.
00:20:20.460We are depending on the UK to to to stop it of all of the crazy things, that being Republicans, everyone who is opposed to this, the White House adamant that it will be done.
00:20:37.460Well, it's horrible for the safety and security of the American people, and it is horrible for the safety and security of our strongest ally in the Middle East, Israel.
00:20:44.860We have no business going back into that agreement.
00:20:47.120I applaud President Trump and Pompeo for getting out of it when they were in the leadership of the White House.
00:20:53.340And look at how it affected the Iranian economy.
00:20:55.840Look how putting sanctions on them affected them.
00:20:58.400And now you have an administration begging the Iranians to send us oil, the Venezuelans to send us oil.
00:21:07.060So I'm sure they do want to get into the JCPOA and lift sanctions in exchange for oil to be coming coming into our country.
00:21:13.880And it's it's it's it's really a sad state for our country when we are begging Venezuela and the Maduro regime and the Iranians to pump more oil and send us more oil.
00:21:25.600Because we're not willing to take the decisions and be energy independent like we were under Trump right here in the United States.
00:21:34.120But because this administration is guided in decisions based on progressive Green New Deal ideology, they're absolutely not going to open up the domestic production of oil and save every American at the pump and at the grocery store.
00:21:48.660And they could do that right now today.
00:21:50.460Biden could do that in the White House.
00:22:21.440And we'll send you our advisories and alerts as well as our weekly newsletter.
00:22:26.080I don't want to overstate anything, but I'm pretty sure you will absolutely sense at least a small positive change in your world outlook.
00:22:34.880We invite you to join us and stay in touch.
00:22:37.940While President Biden got a brief boost in his poll numbers in the latest Wall Street Journal poll, he's sagging back to pre-war levels.
00:22:47.000And there's strong opposition to any thought of sending our troops to Ukraine or even to Europe.
00:22:53.420Meanwhile, Ukraine is fighting fiercely against the invading Russians who have taken heavy losses from the defenders.
00:23:00.320The Ukraine military says they've killed three Russian generals now, killed some 12,000 Russian soldiers, destroyed 800 vehicles and tanks, more than 100 artillery units, and 80-plus Russian helicopters.
00:23:15.720Those, again, are Ukrainian estimates.
00:23:19.200And even if close, those casualties amount almost to the same level of Russian losses in nine years of combat in Afghanistan.
00:23:38.560The Russian death toll, those lost tanks and artillery, if accurate, or even close, as I said, would likely mean Russia may lose some more generals.
00:24:51.660I covered, along with a lot of other people, the Persian Gulf War and saw the Russian T-72 tanks, the Czech version as well, in the Iraqi army.
00:25:58.640I think they really don't have night vision.
00:26:00.300I think they really can't aim these bombs very well.
00:26:02.580And apparently, his supply chain that we're figuring on four or five days, they're out of gas, they're out of this, they're out.
00:26:08.960And the tires on that convoy keep blowing out.
00:26:11.920And people have said that corruption in Russia has caused the production of everything their defense department buys to be just shoddy and not made right.
00:26:29.040Well, I have to say, I'm not a fellow who would hesitate to call them out for all that they have done to this world of ours, the Chinese, irrespective of their so-called advanced military.
00:31:51.320And if you were Putin and watching this, watching Blinken and all this crew, I mean, I'd say it, but I can't obviously can understand why he took this moment.
00:31:59.920Obviously, you're never going to get a circumstance like this again, where he, in his mind, it's so easy to invade.
00:32:09.580Yeah, it's frightening in very real terms to think what Vladimir Putin is doing in Ukraine.
00:32:17.200But to see the sophomoric nonsense that is emanating from the White House.
00:32:25.500It's truly deeply disturbing, especially when you compound that with a poll that tells us the difference between Democrats and Republicans, at least another difference.
00:32:36.940And the Quinnipiac poll revealing that if Russia were to invade the United States, they'd only have to go after the Republicans, because the Democrats in that poll say that they would cut and run.
00:33:06.700But it is one way to, I think, on Election Day, I mean, the Republicans have been handed the perfect ploy, a perfect gambit.
00:33:15.760They can just put out these phony announcements, taking a page from their Democratic opposition, and just announce that Russians have, in fact, invaded the United States, and they'll run like hell, won't get to vote.
00:35:26.040And and for all of this nonsense about, you know, it's only the Republicans who think that the Democrats are the party of evildoers and and asinine policymakers.
00:35:39.480It's clear that other countries, I mean, the same thing is happening with NATO.
00:35:45.040They're not interested in hearing from this guy.
00:35:47.560They they simply wanted the sanctions and the money for NATO, but they're not interested in anything else.
00:35:54.400And there's not a leader amongst them, really not a proven leader.
00:35:59.280So he should be very comfortable with them.
00:36:02.000But they're but they reject him outright.
00:37:19.740Maybe two years worth, at least, of the Biden presidency.
00:37:23.600Yeah, I was watching Chuck Todd, and he actually looked in the camera and said, well, this talk of it wouldn't have happened under Donald Trump.
00:37:49.960Speaking of jokes, this Michael Sussman, the John Durham special counsel comes after him, and he wants all of the charges and statements about him removed
00:38:02.660because he was just exercising his freedom of speech rights, and even though he did lie to the FBI, these were not materialized.
00:38:14.580They were just the foundation for Hurricane Crossfire.
00:38:17.460They were just the foundation for what became the special counsel that attempted to overthrow the president of the United States.
00:38:57.240And now we're finding out so many things about the election in Michigan, in Arizona, in Wisconsin, in Georgia, Pennsylvania.
00:39:09.020All that people were saying, not all, but nearly all of what they were saying in the immediate aftermath of the November 3rd election in 2020.
00:39:20.720After we sift through the ashes for 14 months, we now know that, you know, there was a lot to those anomalies, irregularities, and illegalities that we were watching on television.
00:39:33.800Yeah, you know, but also the more frightening thing is the George Soros type money that comes in and the Mark Zuckerberg half a billion.
00:39:44.460It's stealing an election in a legal way.
00:39:46.500But Republicans either have to do something about that or get their own version of that going, because unless they counter that, I don't know how they how they win elections anymore.
00:39:54.720Yeah, well, if they don't count it, and if Zuckerberg is not held accountable for what he did, and by the way, those those drop boxes, the little little, you know, I don't know how anybody could figure that was a good idea.
00:40:12.080But they, they, it was it was Michigan, it was in Georgia, other states as well.
00:40:20.320I mean, it's just an invitation to voter fraud.
00:40:23.600And that's exactly what happened in many of those, many of those states.
00:40:29.840Speaking of George Soros, and often we do here on the Great America Show, we find out that the CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Committee,
00:40:39.320the American Conservative Union, took money from a subsidiary of the George Soros Network to what, almost $200,000.
00:40:51.540Yeah, but there's so many George Soros subsidiaries, you know, Tony Soprano didn't use as many buffers to disguise himself from these things.
00:41:02.800That's one organization that should have known.
00:41:04.420Yeah, and then a lot of blowback, because people are a little upset about a conservative organization that doesn't mention abortion, family, family support.
00:41:56.820Money is flowing in for the conference, the convention.
00:41:59.240There's an old saying in Washington, it's the most important saying, whatever starts as a movement always turns into a business and eventually becomes a racket.
00:42:13.200So, what do you think about this, I don't know what you would call it, kerfuffle, contentious discussion over transgender men to women sports?
00:42:32.080It seems to me on its face to be unfair to women.
00:42:37.200I just, to me, it's got to be a cycle.
00:42:41.680And I just think normal voters are going to wake up one day and just say, let's go back to everybody who's in their own bathroom, everybody play their own sports.
00:42:48.980Everything was working fine for years.
00:42:53.300I mean, it's got to stop at some point.
00:42:55.680You just can't keep jumbling and throwing everything into a blender and just mixing it up so there's no identity left anymore at all.
00:43:04.220Yeah, and I think it's just terribly unfair to women because men, no matter how much women want to argue about parity and equality, men are just genetically stronger, more powerful.
00:43:16.640And, you know, it just doesn't make sense to me to put them, you know, after Title IX is put in place for women to have sports and equal facilities.
00:45:46.640When you see people on TV, entertainers, whatever it may be, even newscasters, if the truth be known, talking about money, they're damn fools.
00:45:59.520It's just really, particularly if they're talking about their own damn money.
00:46:03.600And this idea that, speaking of tone deaf, and on the same subject, Kamala Harris, well, she's just fine with that ban on Russian crude because that'll make everybody drive an electric car.
00:46:19.060I mean, she really doesn't understand that there aren't enough electric cars right now for the people who have bought them, let alone the people who want to buy them, let alone the people who want to buy them but can't afford them.
00:46:29.980They're the complete, and I'm using her as an avatar for the entire political class of the left.
00:46:39.520They are so damn dumb, don't you think?
00:46:43.720They're just, they're not, no contact with reality.
00:46:47.160You know, everybody will go to an electric car.
00:50:46.000I hope that they walk right into that buzzsaw in November.
00:50:51.940And I hope that we do not see Nancy Pelosi ever again hold a gavel.
00:50:57.640Chuck Schumer will forever be without a cheap sports coat.
00:51:02.740Uh, and, uh, and frankly, uh, we'd watch, uh, good old Adam Schiff, uh, you know, just sit in the corner, sucking his thumb, uh, fearful of the next moment of, uh, of investigation, uh, from the Republican led justice department.
00:52:29.780Ray Epps, the people who, one of the people who apparently was playing a third grade hall monitor to get people shuffled into, uh, the Capitol building.
00:52:39.260And the questions go on and on and ask of the FBI, how many of their people were there that day?
00:52:45.280And how many of them committed a crime while they were there?
00:52:48.020And the representatives of the FBI say to Congress and upon their congressional inquiry, uh, we can't tell you because we've got to protect our sources and methods.
00:52:56.880Well, if they're protecting sources and methods, it's pretty clear they were there and pretty good force.
00:53:03.540And if they take over the January 6th commission, all these lies about they tried to hang, hang Mike Pence.
00:53:08.520Nobody was trying to hang Mike Pence at every protest.
00:53:11.740Uh, in fact, the summer before they always had one of those dummies in a noose and a sign that said, hang Donald Trump.
00:53:31.840One of my favorite charges against these people, a favorite in the sense that it is farcical, uh, it is demonic, uh, and it is outrageous on the part of the Democrats and the justice system, the justice department, the FBI and the court system.
00:53:47.180This, uh, this, uh, this violation of law that they're bringing against some of the protesters and demonstrators and people who entered the building that is parading on, on government property.
00:54:03.500I compare that to the, to the four months of summer riots and mayhem brought by Antifa and, uh, black lives matter.
00:54:12.840Uh, I mean, the comparison, uh, Kelly and her reporting points out three more, three times as many people are being charged and prosecuted, uh, for that four hours of demonstration.
00:54:26.000And yes, some people did riot, but four times, uh, four months worth of the, of arson and viciousness and shootings and whatever, you know, four times the number, excuse me, three times.
00:54:40.400The numbers in the, uh, arrested in those three months.
