00:00:00.000 But I want to go to this video that came out that's been retweeted all over the place.
00:00:07.360 I think Elon also retweeted this about Chinese new plane, okay?
00:00:13.540 SSUAV spooks U.S. challenges its air superiority, but can it outfly latest air defenses?
00:00:20.960 That's the question.
00:00:21.860 Economic Times, Rob, if you got this clip here to show that new China plane that is on there,
00:00:28.560 I think maybe even I retweeted it, but if you have it, just kind of share it.
00:00:31.660 It may not be on my, but you should have it in the notes.
00:00:34.580 I have it.
00:00:35.080 So China's SSUAV, a super high altitude drone with 15,000 ceiling and 4,000 kilometer range,
00:00:44.160 capable of carrying over 100 small drones or 1,000 kilogram of missiles,
00:00:49.740 is set to undertake its first mission by June and raising concerns in the U.S.
00:00:53.960 about its challenge to its air superiority.
00:00:56.300 Rob, if you want to play this clip, this is what it's capable of doing.
00:00:59.900 Vinny, take a look at this.
00:01:00.940 Watch this.
00:01:10.080 Can we mute this music?
00:01:12.080 Rob, can you mute them?
00:01:13.140 It's like little Chinese strands, but it's like real.
00:01:15.780 Well, you just don't know what makes you like the song.
00:01:17.620 Look at that.
00:01:19.140 What do you think about that when you see that, Tom?
00:01:21.600 So here's what I think about.
00:01:23.760 The future of modern warfare, people aren't going to like this, but this is a tool of future modern warfare.
00:01:31.560 And modern warfare will work like this.
00:01:33.540 They will penetrate air defenses, and they will deploy that.
00:01:36.780 And they'll think, oh, they're going to kill all the people in the cities.
00:01:38.700 No, they're not.
00:01:39.180 They're going to go after infrastructure.
00:01:40.380 They're going to go after power grids. 1.00
00:01:41.500 They're going to go after water treatment plants. 0.98
00:01:43.020 They're going to go after water pumping stations. 0.98
00:01:44.420 Because as soon as you do that, now you create civil unrest, and you can get the government to surrender.
00:01:49.840 That's the way these things are going to work.
00:01:51.480 You're not going to have a million Chinese show up on the coast of California and invade.
00:01:56.840 It's not the way the warfare is going to work.
00:01:59.360 And increasingly, people are looking at it and thinking that you're not going to have mutually assured destruction by nuclear.
00:02:06.340 You fire one, I fire one.
00:02:07.500 You fire two, I fire two. 1.00
00:02:08.660 Oh, crap. 1.00
00:02:09.140 It's done. 0.95
00:02:09.540 So that war in the future will be crafts like this, unmanned and controlled from afar, getting to an area and launching off, and then completely disrupting everything.
00:02:23.300 Look what happened in Gaza.
00:02:25.000 No electricity, no water, no anything.
00:02:27.540 And there you have it.
00:02:29.400 You brought the whole thing to its knees.
00:02:31.980 So that's what's going on.
00:02:33.900 That's what I think of.
00:02:34.980 And so think of this as a tool of the modern warfare where it's not soldiers killing each other.
00:02:39.600 It is countries trying to incapacitate each other to get them to surrender and to take their land.
00:02:45.020 I wonder what it does, though, because, you know, when we talk about military-industrial complex, right, there's two sides of the argument.
00:02:53.080 One of the arguments is what?
00:02:54.480 I want to make bombs and bullets for traditional. 1.00
00:02:56.180 You need sick people for hospital beds to be busy.
00:02:59.200 You need, you know, cancer is a $200 billion-year industry.
00:03:02.760 So if you cure cancer, that $200 billion industry wipes out and it goes away, right?
00:03:06.520 So don't outlaw roundup.
00:03:08.540 So what is the balance between military-industrial complex companies making money and actually preparing for a future invasion?
00:03:16.480 How do you balance those two messages out?
00:03:18.800 Well, I think what you do is if I'm Raytheon, I look at this video and I'm like, Mr. President, see, we need to make things like this as well.
00:03:27.720 So it's basically, you know, opportunity meets scenario in military spending.
00:03:36.140 You paint scenarios, Pat.
00:03:38.260 That is the opportunity for me to sell into the scenario for what you'll need.
00:03:42.960 So when Raytheon sees this, they say, hey, dude, you're going to need a mass deployment device or they'll come up with some military name for it.
00:03:52.520 An MDD, you better have a mass deployment device that flies low under radar, gets in and then releases all these drones and then attack all their power grid, right?
00:04:00.660 So that's how it works.
00:04:02.220 But you have to create the fear.
00:04:03.580 You have to create the fear and the opportunity.
00:04:05.080 Remember, the Cold War was incredibly profitable because we went from tanks to very expensive missiles and very expensive warheads and even more expensive silos and bases and submarines to launch them.
00:04:21.140 I guess the question for me would be the following.
00:04:24.500 How do you present that argument, not as in if you're Raytheon or if you're Boeing or any of those guys?
00:04:30.360 How do you sell that as the president, as a person that's in office?
00:04:34.940 Here's why we need to make these investments.
00:04:36.660 How do you sell that?
00:04:37.320 I know how to sell it.
00:04:38.080 I'm just thinking how you would do it.
00:04:39.740 The way I sell it to American people, it's a Cold War argument.
00:04:44.960 It says if they're building systems like this, this is how they're going to use them.
00:04:49.580 We need to be prepared for your safety and the continuation of our country and our economy and life as we know it.
00:04:58.680 It's basically the nuclear war argument.
00:05:03.160 If they're building X, we need to build Y.
00:05:05.820 And the U.S. is always included.
00:05:09.180 And thank goodness we have two oceans and one previously docile neighbor in Mexico and one talkative but completely harmless neighbor in Canada.
00:05:23.780 Is that verified that that is something that they were working on?
00:05:26.860 June.
00:05:27.140 They're saying they're testing it in June, which is next month.
00:05:29.560 Okay, me personally, that doesn't faze me because of how advanced we are.
00:05:35.280 If something like that, especially under this administration, I don't have zero worries about anything like that.
00:05:41.540 Because our capability with laser and nuke, if something like that touched our shores, Tom, it's over for China. 0.99
00:05:49.740 And then, I mean, it might be over for the rest of us.
00:05:51.800 Is that confident?
00:05:52.920 I'm very, very confident working at a nuclear missile base that the amount of stuff that we have, the stuff that we'll never know.
00:06:00.740 You'll never know 95% of what the Pentagon and what our, like, they're posting this video, whatever.
00:06:06.440 If China puts that anywhere near us, it's a full-on war to them because Tom nailed it. 0.97
00:06:12.700 They hit the water.
00:06:14.220 They hit the energy.
00:06:15.400 They hit electricity.
00:06:16.580 It's a wrap.
00:06:17.820 It's a wrap.
00:06:18.340 But think about it.
00:06:19.620 The last administration, China could have flown that thing over our country. 0.99
00:06:22.980 They wouldn't have done shit. 0.99
00:06:24.160 No, seriously. 0.99
00:06:24.960 They were flying balloons.
00:06:26.120 They were flying this.
00:06:26.840 They're buying Lint.
00:06:27.700 You could have done anything.
00:06:28.740 This is a whole different situation with Trump and Pete Hexed.
00:06:31.280 But that honestly doesn't worry me because of what we have, period.
00:06:35.400 Yeah, I just think, for me, to sit there and be that confident about what someone could do to us without us being paranoid.
00:06:46.960 And we saw what happened in COVID.
00:06:49.400 You know, are we ready for a cyber attack?
00:06:51.700 No.
00:06:52.240 Absolutely not.
00:06:52.800 Are we ready for them taking down the financial system for a week?
00:06:57.380 What would that do to the economy?
00:06:59.680 What would that do to communities?
00:07:01.580 Are we ready if we don't have power and you can't go buy food?
00:07:04.480 And what percentage of people have stockpiles of food and stuff in their place to be ready for it?
00:07:10.080 I don't know if we're ready for that.
00:07:11.460 Do you think they have the capabilities to do things like that?
00:07:14.140 Yeah.
00:07:14.680 So, you know, my challenge is why, like, that video that I played earlier where the guy said, no, you're liberal.
00:07:20.460 In our country, we don't believe in your value.
00:07:22.660 No, we are not okay with that.
00:07:24.020 But we're okay coming to you because you allow us to do it, right?
00:07:26.840 That gives me the vibes what that guy said to what China does. 0.98
00:07:31.440 We want to come into your country and sell us our products and the stuff that we're building for you.
00:07:35.840 But you can't come to our country. 1.00
00:07:37.720 No, no.
00:07:38.040 We only want to come to you. 0.98
00:07:39.800 No, you can't come to our country and convert Muslims into Christians. 1.00
00:07:42.680 But we're coming to you.
00:07:44.180 No, you can't come in our country and open up Facebook, YouTube, but we're coming to you.
00:07:47.680 We're going to come TikTok your kids. 0.99
00:07:49.440 We're going to come and teach.
00:07:50.640 So that is the part where military, when I see stuff like this, the drone, by the way, a drone attack, you got 50,000 drones in there.
00:08:00.480 You saw these drone shows that they do all this stuff, how quickly it changes and, you know, all the stuff that's going on.
00:08:05.560 So you look at the sky, there's 50 drones coming your way.
00:08:08.160 What are you doing?
00:08:08.800 It's over.
00:08:09.520 No, no.
00:08:09.760 But what do you, like, what is the military doing?
00:08:12.660 50,000 drones come and all of a sudden they go this wide.
00:08:15.420 I mean, there's a lot of stuff that we need to be thinking about on what's possible, what's capable.
00:08:22.620 All I'm saying is only the paranoid survive.
00:08:26.160 I would, you know, FYI, how long has he been the president?
00:08:30.360 How many days?
00:08:32.800 119?
00:08:34.220 119 days?
00:08:34.980 Say 120 days?
00:08:36.020 Whatever that is?
00:08:36.700 Something like that.
00:08:37.140 You think just because he's been president 120 days, we already have all the right capabilities?
00:08:41.120 What happened the last four years prior to him?
00:08:42.920 Did we make the right investments?
00:08:44.180 I don't know.
00:08:45.160 I don't know.
00:08:46.080 I don't know.
00:08:46.440 I know the first four years he was making some heavy investments to make the military better, but there was a big four-year break.
00:08:51.800 We got work to get back to it.
00:08:53.920 I don't trust.
00:08:56.340 I don't trust what China is doing behind closed doors. 0.99
00:08:58.820 Nobody trusts China. 0.88
00:08:59.580 Go for it.
00:08:59.960 Well, I firmly believe in the Reagan doctrine, which is peace through strength.
00:09:03.340 Are you freaking kidding me?
00:09:04.220 And when you look at what we're spending on our defense, I think in line items, our defense budget is almost a trillion dollars, right behind interest that we're paying on the debt, which is also a trillion dollars, which goes behind our Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and everything like that.
00:09:19.440 But if you add up all the other countries, I think the next 10 to 15 countries, after what we're spending on the budget, Rob, there you go right there.
00:09:27.560 United States, almost 968 billion, almost a trillion dollars.
00:09:30.860 So if you add up China, Russia, Germany, the U.K., India, Saudi, France, what other countries are that, Rob?
00:09:39.320 Japan, South Korea, Australia, Italy, Israel, Ukraine, which we're funding, and Poland, it doesn't even equal what the United States is spending on budget.
00:09:47.980 So if we don't have the best, dopest, most high-tech weaponry out there, then what the hell are we spending our money on?
00:09:55.640 How much corruption is happening?
00:09:57.360 So we better have all this that China's doing and then some. 0.97
00:10:01.400 Top Gun shouldn't just be a movie.
00:10:03.360 We should have all that stuff ready at our disposal.
00:10:06.960 Yeah.
00:10:07.600 Well, we'll see.
00:10:08.440 We got a special merch drop today with these four states if you want to play this clip.
00:10:13.820 We have officially four hats, each representing Florida, California, Texas, and New York.
00:10:24.920 What's wild about these four states is I lived in California for 24 years, longest I ever lived in a state.
00:10:30.660 I lived in Texas for five years.
00:10:32.720 I've been in Florida for four years, and we own the minority owners of New York Yankees.
00:10:36.980 So there is something going on with each of these four states, and it happens to be the top four states that we have here.
00:10:42.820 These hats will go like this, okay, because they're limited.
00:10:46.840 We don't have a big supply of them.
00:10:48.260 But the Florida one is going to sell out in minutes like it always does.
00:10:51.420 Why?
00:10:52.140 Because it is numbered one out of 250, and when you order those, they come in this box.
00:10:57.280 The Value Tim and Future Looks Bright box with the hat inside of it.
00:11:01.120 Florida's is going to have the red back lid, which is not lid.
00:11:05.600 What do you call this thing here?
00:11:06.500 That's their flag.
00:11:07.460 What do you call this, Vinny, here?
00:11:08.500 A snapback.
00:11:09.260 The snapback, and then you have Florida's flag here with Florida's map on the side,
00:11:13.620 and then you've got the same thing with Texas, with New York, with California.
00:11:16.920 So here's what we're going to be doing.
00:11:18.080 Two things.
00:11:18.560 You've got the shirt, sweaters, and the hats, limited supply.
00:11:23.080 Anybody that places the order, the first hundred are going to get a Future Looks Bright.
00:11:26.700 Keychain, where you see the keychain right there.
00:11:28.740 Whether you order one hat, two hats, or whatever you order, you're going to get those right there.
00:11:32.060 However, I want to show you something crazy I sent to Chris this morning.
00:11:35.500 Rob, go to eBay.
00:11:36.680 Go to eBay.
00:11:37.240 Go to eBay.
00:11:37.760 Go to eBay if you can, and type in Future Looks Bright.
00:11:40.100 This is absolutely wild.
00:11:42.060 So if you go to eBay, Vinny, have you seen this lately?
00:11:44.400 Future Looks Bright.
00:11:45.180 Look what's there.
00:11:46.300 Look at this.
00:11:47.480 These numbered hats end up, but watch this.
00:11:50.580 $800 for one of them.
00:11:51.760 Keep going.
00:11:52.900 Okay.
00:11:53.260 Keep going.
00:11:54.620 $249.
00:11:55.040 Last one.
00:11:55.640 That means you already sold one.
00:11:56.740 Listen to this.
00:11:57.740 Let it go lower.
00:11:58.620 Watch what happens here with the rest of them.
00:12:00.680 Okay.
00:12:01.340 Keep going.
00:12:02.280 It's becoming a marketplace on eBay, on some of these guys.
00:12:05.400 Some of them, the super fans buy, they work.
00:12:07.360 I absolutely love it.
00:12:08.760 You're going to see me on Jesse Waters tonight.
00:12:11.080 $10,000?
00:12:13.440 Are you serious?
00:12:14.480 I mean, that's how numbered stuff goes.
00:12:16.180 He's got the one out of $250, though.
00:12:17.980 So if you go lower, tonight when I'm on Jesse, by the way, even that backpack, we sold them.
00:12:22.640 It's $2,028 for a numbered backpack.
00:12:24.460 There was only 100 of them we did limited.
00:12:26.060 The red ones.
00:12:26.580 We'll never do it again.
00:12:27.860 The other one was the Future Looks Bright, the white and the gold, $3,000.
