Speaker 1: Would I Why would I call it? Now?
00:00:01
Speaker 2: There's should I say it again?
00:00:02
Speaker 1: Now there's two hundred and sixty four thousand votes left the count.
00:00:07
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what he's talking about, but there's very unhappy Mike Lindell who lost his gubernatorial primary uh in Minnesota. Yes, America's village idiot. Try to run it back again and predictive. Please still try to say that's rick too.
00:00:22
Speaker 2: Welcome to dead Air. My name is Dean uh here, of course, with.
00:00:25
Speaker 3: My friend Steve Schmidt from the Warning On behalf of the Save America movement. I mean, I listen, I've seen stranger things like Jesse the body Ventura become the governor of Minnesota before. But yeah, you almost I don't know if you do. In fact, I can guarantee you probably don't. I almost feel bad for the guy I do, clearly.
00:00:48
Speaker 4: No, Well, let's talk about the sailors on the Abraham Lincoln and we can draw a straight line from the whack jobbery of this guy. M hmm, the destruction of faith and elections and institutions, the corrupt news networks, that platform CAM and when you look at it all in its glorious total, the way you can appreciate that these reality show characters, from the one who has smuggled off of Air Force one in the catering court to this whack job with his cross on his lapel is that all of them are unfit at every conceivable level of unfitness you could ever conceivably measure, and the damage they've done to the country is so severe you can really make a strenuous argument that the Republic has already collapsed, and Mike Lindella is one of the reasons why. But more importantly, I think is the indulgence of so many people for the Mike Lindell's of the world that are part of the reason why.
00:02:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, you touch on the sim I mean, we talk about it quite a bit. Ken Harbaugh and I talk about it quite a bit, the sim that we live in the respect the reality TV politicians, people who think because they have a mantle, you know, and they're close to the seat of power, that they could be successful, like Donald Trump is successful because he did break the mold. But at the same time, I mean every piece of writing that's on the wall for a guy like Michael Lindell and I say, I feel sorry for him that dude is trapped in something that I can't diagnose.
00:02:34
Speaker 2: Number one.
00:02:35
Speaker 3: Number two, to your better point, the symptom, which is has caused some issues in the United States of America. Whether it's you know, America being effectively bankrupt. Now we'll get to that in just a minute, whether it is you know, setting up spy cameras in and around the United States. We're going to talk about that today in this episode of Dead Air. Things that nobody seems to want to talk about with these flock cameras.
00:02:56
Speaker 2: We're gonna chot chat about that.
00:02:57
Speaker 3: But I want to stop and start with the most important story in the United States right now, maybe one of the most important stories in the world that you touched on, and that is and are the conditions that the men and women who are serving on the US Abraham Lincoln are currently experiencing. We have six confirmed attempted jumpers. They will not tell us how many people were successful when they jumped off the plane. Five thousand sailors marines on deployment November twenty first, a sailor on Watshaw shipmate preparing to go overboard. They've been out there for two hundred and fifty five days. Now the Navy's preparing the USS Theodore Roosevelt. It is still in San Diego, though, and it takes three weeks to get there. So, you know, we're looking at the incompetence of this regime and the fact that nobody seems to give a shit about the men and women who are currently serving in a purposeless war of choice.
00:03:45
Speaker 2: In the United States of America.
00:03:47
Speaker 3: And then on top of that, the extreme disrespects, Steve, and I'd love your thoughts on this, the extreme disrespect that these men and women have been paid over the past six months as this war of Choices began from deflating decast numbers. You know, Kia is injured not talking about the sacrifice those men and women have made and then keeping them out to sea for a record breaking two hundred and fifty five two hundred and fifty six days.
00:04:12
Speaker 2: Which is where we're at right now. Morale is terrible.
00:04:15
Speaker 3: Parents and families are screaming at the Pentagon. They're meeting with families, but they continue to say that there is nothing to see here, and we can see it, we can hear it, we can smell it now, Steve.
00:04:27
Speaker 4: Oh of course we can. I want to talk about a couple of things here. I want to talk about the war of choice against Iran that the country has lost, our country, the United States, and a humiliating fashion, an immense strategic defeat. I want to talk about the US Navy, and then I want to talk specifically about the ship. And then lastly, but certainly not least about the officers and crew on the that ship. This war, that was a war of choice launched against Iran, has strengthened Iran and weaken the United States.
00:05:15
Speaker 1: It was a.
00:05:16
Speaker 4: Naval war, and in that naval war, we sank their navy. But our navy has been denied its fundamental purpose, which is the freedom of navigation of the seas of which it is the primary guaranteur. And that scenario has never occurred, not once in five hundred years of history. It is a defeat forged with the type of mind bending in competence that requires a theoretical physics degree to wrap your head around. The second thing is this, say, naval defeat by navy that is now run by a Chief of Naval Operations who replaced the competent meritocratically chosen Admiral Linda Franchetti through his politicking through his conduct unbecoming that should be investigated deeply and fully by the House Armed Services Committee when Democrats take the majority, but also eventually by the military when this regime is out. The conduct is outrageous, and we have seen in this war the sinking of an unarmed Iranian frigate by a US submarine where north quarter was given to the survivors, and I think raises real questions of whether we had an American Melai off the coast of Sri Lanka on the water. We see the war crimes taking place in the Southern Caribbean and in the Southern Pacific with the sinking of boats, again no quarter given, no war declared, and so the Navy, older than the country, has been thrown into a crisis by an Air Force general that, according to Trump, the chairman of Detroit Chiefs of Staff, who's qualification in the eyes of Trump was he wore the red hat, and a Navy admiral who politicked for the job. So Trump peg set then the Air Force general or the architects of a naval defeat against Iran, which is denied the US Navy freedom of navigation at a vital choke point which will be recognized clearly by the Chinese and the nine dashline in the South China Sea, and so it's a world's historical event. Made no mistake about that. The ship has been at sea for two hundred and fifty days since it left port in Guam. That is a record. There is no ship in the history of the US Navy that is operated without touching port of any consequence for that long. And we look at the incompetence of the military operation, the inability to resupply the ship when we supposedly have uncontested control.
00:08:45
Speaker 1: Of the seas and the air.
00:08:49
Speaker 4: This is the most dangerous working environment on Earth. The deck of a United States ship nuclear aircraft carrier, two hundred and fifty days in an operational tempo without a break. The ship is breaking down. The men on the ship are breaking down because they're not robots, they're not machines, they're people.
00:09:18
Speaker 1: And these people.
00:09:19
Speaker 4: Are highly trained American sailors operating one of the most complex pieces of machinery that's ever been built by the hands of human beings under the most stressful and lethal conditions possible, with absolute disregard from their commander in chief. The Secretary of Defense, who calls himself preposterously the Secretary of War, and who announced today the new slogan of a naval force, you do bad things to bad people. He's a bad person who's doing bad things to good people, which include the crew of the USS Abraham Lincoln, which has been abused by the incompetence of its commanders from the top down, and they're breaking the US Navy. Today, Donald Trump announced on a whim that he was going to tear out, at a cost of billions of dollars, state of the art electromagnetic propulsion systems that fire the planes into the air and replace them with steam catapults.
00:10:44
Speaker 1: This is madness.
00:10:46
Speaker 4: It's the naval version of burning down our own ships. He's doing TVs aircraft carriers. What he did to the White House, his defacement of Washington equal to his defacement of the Navy. And so lastly, we have crew breaking, ill fed, not supported, properly, psychologically, cut off from their families, no combat vessel. The history of the United States Navy has gone this long. In twenty three twenty four, you had the Eisenhower on a sustained combat deployment, and you started to have severe issues at the end of that deployment, but nothing like what we're seeing now when you have sailors jumping off a ship. What that means is there is a collapse of morale, and morale is caused by disintegration of command and determine. The Navy is loss of confidence. And the American sailor, marine airmen, and soldier across the American Force deserved better than what they're getting from these people who use them as props to fly over Kid Rock's house or to titillate the jerk offs on a beach in Alabama by buzzing a lifeguard station. But the barracks are falling apart, the showers are in disrepair, the plumbing on the vessels doesn't work, the munitions have been expended, and we have lost the war. The people should be furious about it. In the United States, we're a country that says, board the plane first for the delta flight, but we don't give a fuck about their conditions and combat. What a shameful people we are.
00:13:04
Speaker 2: You know, I want to get to the.
00:13:08
Speaker 3: I want to get to the reason that that morale is as low as it is. Why you know, some sailors are choosing, you know, Davy Jones Locker over be seeing their families ever again, and there are a bunch of different reasons for it. Ken brought up a great point this week, Ken Harbaugh, friend of our steering committee member here on the Save of America movement and of course the Ken Harbaugh Show. He was talking about how sailors get no information from any of their superior officers about the purpose or duty, talking about how now they don't.
00:13:41
Speaker 2: Have any purpose.
00:13:42
Speaker 3: They go downstairs and they eat gray meat. If we have a picture of that gray meat or the food, we could put that up now that'd be great gray meat, some kind of weird ground beef, and some boiled carrots, the shish kabab, the eggs, whatever bullist that is underneath the eggs. And these are people that are sending pictures back home to their families. Families furious. Families are furious, and every single family is pointing their finger at two people, one of them, of course, the President of the United States of America, who continues to demean and and and gloss over the sacrifice that these incredible people continue to make on behalf of a country that has completely fucking abandoned them number one. But one of the things that that Ken brought up, and I love your thoughts on it. You know, all these people have devices, they'll have cell phones. They can read, they can see, they know what's going on. They can they can read what's happening, they can look at lego videos, they can. I mean the demoralization on top of that, by knowing that you do not have a mission ready purpose. Your boss is back home, don't give a shit about you, and they're they're demeaning the Kia numbers, and they're telling you that that that purpose is to do whatever the president wants now forty six times. It's a forty six attempted cease fire, et cetera, et cetera, blockade on, blockade off.
00:14:57
Speaker 2: And on top of it.
00:14:58
Speaker 3: As you pointed out, you have people on board that are following this man. And I want to play a clip. This is the Secretary of War, not Secretary of War, secretary of Defense. He's a Fox drunk weekend news anchor who had serious, serious addiction issues, widely talked about. You can go and read about it at Dean Blundell dot substack dot com. But this is the gentleman that is leading the charge. Can we play that heg Seth clipped from this last weekend.
00:15:23
Speaker 2: And the first there you go to, Charleston Air Force Base was called the Spirit.
00:15:31
Speaker 3: I just this isn't Charleston, Lindsey Graham. They renamed the base farm and Pete hegg Seth and Besant went there to go and beg Congress and the Senate for another sixty seven billion dollars. And there's Pete hegg Seth wiping his nose, laughing and then rubbing it in his hair. And I don't know, if you watch some of the videos that he just put out from being in a Colombian and Venezuelan jungle, his eyes are like saucers and he is manic. And then before he left for that trip, when he was in Charleston, he said, everybody on those ships gets.
00:15:57
Speaker 2: What they need.
00:15:58
Speaker 3: And it's clearly a lie, clearly a lie being manifested.
00:16:01
Speaker 2: But the families are.
00:16:02
Speaker 3: Reporting back clearly a lie by the fact that if you believe any news story not coming out of Trump state media, there he goes again.
00:16:09
Speaker 2: He's that that these people are.
00:16:11
Speaker 3: Literally being led by some of the dumbest, fucking human beings on the planet. And and to a man and a woman on that on on the USS Abraham Lincoln. They clearly know it now, right, they clearly know it now.
00:16:28
Speaker 4: It takes a lot longer to rebuild what has been burned down. And the damage this man has done to the US Armed Forces in terms of its dignity, its honor, its morale, its effectiveness as a as a fighting force is profound. And not only that. They have expended munitions like drunken sailors literally, and they have spent money like drunken sailors literally, like no other group of people ever in the history of the military industrial complex. You have front page stories and national newspapers about artillery shell factories run by General Dynamics half a billion dollars in contracts can't make a shell. The robotic arms are going wild. The President's sons are in the drone business, and every single contract email aspect of this corruption and competence will have to be known, will have to be discovered, will have to be investigated. The officers who cut corners that architected this, who politicize their duty for their self interest in advancement, will have to be will have to be held to account. But it is clear to me, and I'd like to see some Democrats talk about this, that we have to do two things in this country by way of passing legislative reforms.
00:18:14
Speaker 1: The ceiling.
00:18:16
Speaker 4: To confirm a Secretary of Defense and a Secretary of State and a Secretary of Health and Human Services has to be substantially raised, so no dipshit like any of these people, including a Todd Blanche can ever make it through with one corrupt vote.
00:18:39
Speaker 1: Again, that this.
00:18:43
Speaker 4: Will have to be seventy votes, sixty five votes, and two broken parties will have to appreciate that they just simply don't have enough votes to ever put an incompetent like this charge.
00:19:00
Speaker 1: Again. The second thing is.
00:19:03
Speaker 4: There will have to be a law written that says, if you accept a pardon, you are enjoined from working in any industry that supports the US defense industry, the US government in any form, in any fashion, in any manner that makes it impossible for a Boeing or a General Dynamics or a Lockheed to bid on a government contract with pardoned employees.
00:19:35
Speaker 1: Working for them.
00:19:37
Speaker 4: And so if you want to take your pardon, by all means, take it. But there's gonna be some real limitations onto your ability to work for in any capacity the US government a contractor or subcontractor. And what's gone on here is appalling. The misuse of the naval force, the abuse of these men and women, the desperation, the psychological breakdown. The lessons of the Eisenhower deployment were crystal clear, and within two years time they doubled down and extended beyond it, and then some plus plus in worse circumstances, and achieved the worst result, which is exactly what the investigation about the Eisenhower report pretended. So again, this is the fruit of going to war without a plan. And the most malicious aspect of it all is that whatever failure rich Head should roll led to our sailors eating that slot. It could easily be rectified with cargo plane flights cogflights to the carrier filled with steaks and other great food, but doing so would mean an acknowledgment of the legitimacy of the problem. So the strongest position for our maliced commanders is to hold the line and make sure our sailors eat shit, lest the American people discover the truth of the matter. And going back to Mike Lindell, in the straight line. The question of are they eating shit or not is deeply connected to the question of how do you know if Mitch McConnell is alive or not? Or why can't anybody tell who won the election or not? Or why is it on any given day? The American people are no longer able to discern for themselves what is up versus down? What is right versus left? What is red versus blue? What is the truth versus a lie?
00:22:19
Speaker 1: How did that happen? We know how that happened.
00:22:25
Speaker 4: And it happened day by day, hour by hour, second by second, and it happened with a yja jang toast as the head of the White House Correspondence dinner before passing off her job to the Fox News Lackey.
00:22:45
Speaker 1: Her turn.
00:22:47
Speaker 4: In the contigual partnership between the corrupt media and MAGA and Donald Trump. That is stranded an aircraft carrier in a losing war, filled with sailors who are trying to jump off off the fucking ship to swim home rather than endure another day because they've been broken psychologically by the neglect of the people whose duty it was to look out for them.
00:23:14
Speaker 1: To Pauling.
00:23:17
Speaker 2: Well said, Donald Trump hates you.
00:23:20
Speaker 1: I mean it sure does.
00:23:21
Speaker 3: It's what I take out of this. Donald Trump fucking hates you. Donald Trump fucking hates the Constitution. Donald Trump fucking hates the men and women in uniform. Doesn't matter what he says in front of a microphone, doesn't matter what he says.
00:23:33
Speaker 2: It's bullshit.
00:23:34
Speaker 3: Pete Hegsaith hates every man and woman in uniform. But Donald Trump really fucking hates you to the point where he's willing to destroy the United States military.
00:23:43
Speaker 2: Lie about it.
00:23:44
Speaker 3: While in the month of July he and this government managed to spend four hundred and thirty two billion dollars of debt.
00:23:50
Speaker 2: That is a record. So can you.
00:23:52
Speaker 3: Imagine being a sailor on that, on that USS. Abraham Lincoln reading that, looking at that, you would have the russion that Donald Trump hates you. Which is why I'm so grateful to be working with the Stave of America Movement. As we have now unrolled this new campaign, I want to talk about it real quick before we get to someone else. Donald Trump hated enough to put her on a death flight. Donald Trump hates you. The Save of America Movement, go to the Stave of American Movement dot org.
00:24:17
Speaker 2: Tell us about this. If you can't please well, because you're.
00:24:21
Speaker 4: Right, Donald Trump hates you, and he does unequivocally.
00:24:28
Speaker 1: And so.
00:24:32
Speaker 4: I'm imagining sitting on some cable show, how can you say he hates you?
00:24:39
Speaker 2: Well, let me count that sign?
00:24:45
Speaker 1: Is that? Well?
00:24:46
Speaker 4: He lied to you forty or fifty thousand times. He's stolen from you, This abuser of women, this felon, this man who sought to keep power against the sovereign will of the American people, This man who has waged the war on freedom of speech, on the Second Amendment, on the Fourth Amendment, the Fifth Amendment, the ninth to tenth, the fourteenth, who threatens over and over again or else.
00:25:23
Speaker 1: I will hold power, hates you.
00:25:26
Speaker 2: Say, American? Sorry, go ahead.
00:25:31
Speaker 4: As he steals, as he does corrupt deals, and entangles this country with corrupt foreign governments, takes four hundred million dollar planes from them beggars, this country, knocks down buildings that don't belong to him, wrecks in his imagination ares arches that rival Hitler's imagined victory arch in size and scale for himself in Washington, Festiving's face off of government buildings, bred and circus is on the White House lawn. And a coward who got into a catering truck with his thirty five year old age. What a coward.
00:26:36
Speaker 3: That story isn't something we've covered yet, but it leans into all of this. Improves your point with a bullet that the President of the United States took the advice of the Israeli government over the advice of his own intelligence, got out of Air Force one, got onto Air Force two after climbing into a catering truck container. Steve not even the catering, didn't even get a seat up front, got into the container. And who didn't he take with him any member of cabinet, any member of the press, corp ABO. One hundred and ten people traveling were used as decoys for this threat that Israel had passed along to Donald Trump, that he chose to believe. And so, like the coward we know he is, like the yellow bellied sapsucker we know Donald Trump to be when it really matters, he let everybody else fry. Now the come uppance of that, which is fascinating is Carolina eleve At, the Press Secretary, was on Air Force one with Scott Bess and Marco Rubio, a couple of other cabinet members in the entire press corps, which, by the way, they were not told about any of this. Donald Trump was and he took Natalie Harp, his thirty five year old human printer assistant, Walt Nada, the guy who gets his diet coke and changes his pants, and Dan Scavino, the dude that.
00:27:53
Speaker 2: Does his truth social stuff.
00:27:54
Speaker 3: Those three people his assistants, people that make his life materially a little bit easier so he doesn't have to do certain things. But he left what should be the brain trust of the United States Cabinet on Air Force one to possibly be shot down as he jumped on another plane, then jumped on that plane when they got back to England and said, da look at me, guys, we almost went down together.
00:28:13
Speaker 2: Woo woo woo.
00:28:14
Speaker 1: Uh.
00:28:15
Speaker 3: Since then, Caroline Levity is quit after coming back early from eternity leave, saying she's excited to win the midterms, was going to be here for the entire four years. She took her leave yesterday. Keep in mind there she is. There's jumpsy Caroline. She took her leave yesterday, and since she's gonna go spend more time with her kids.
00:28:34
Speaker 2: Now a lot of rumors.
00:28:36
Speaker 3: Sure, you've talked to people that Caroline Levitt is so angry that Donald Trump used her as human bait. She cut bait. That's a crack in the foundation what Donald Trump is. When Caroline Levitt knows that Donald Trump hates her enough to sacrifice her life.
00:28:52
Speaker 1: Well, it was the lapse. Good look plantay with those I.
00:28:59
Speaker 3: Don't want thoughts on all, Yeah, those are well.
00:29:06
Speaker 1: Let me just say I think that.
00:29:12
Speaker 4: Both Bush and Obama flew into Baghdad on the Blue and White.
00:29:22
Speaker 1: Air Force one m.
00:29:25
Speaker 4: And that that plane signifies the arrival of the American head of state, the commander in chief of the American Armed Forces, the head of government, the president of the United States of America. And I think that imagining for mine, imagining for a second that I were the president or advising a president, what I would say is.
00:29:59
Speaker 1: That aircraft, which is just.
00:30:01
Speaker 4: A special air mission flight absent the presidence of the President of the United States, which makes that air force aircraft, air Force one, who is an army aircraft, who would be Army one, Navy one, of course famously Marine one, which operates the helicopters, and the only correct thing to do was to rely on the estimates of the Secret Service and the Air Force, intelligence, and the US Armed forces. But the President of the United States does not leave his aircraft or her aircraft and a catering container a boarder lifted truck. The President of the United States flies home in the open, in a public departure aboard the presidential aircraft. Air force one period, end of discussion, and dare any nation to contemplate firing on that aircraft. We simultaneously are going to say that we've decimated this country, We've neutered it militarily. They're on the edge of some unconditional surrender, but we have so lost.
00:31:33
Speaker 1: Our deterrence.
00:31:36
Speaker 4: That they would dare to try to shoot down the presidential aircraft with senior members of the administration, including the Secretary of State and Secretary of Defensive Board or worstrong country. No, and so he failed as a leader, he failed as a president.
00:32:00
Speaker 1: He failed his office.
00:32:02
Speaker 4: It's almost like he tarnished the oval office in layers and layers of cheap gold guilt.
00:32:11
Speaker 1: Oh and so.
00:32:17
Speaker 4: And so, this vile man, this coward ye desecrated his office. And you think about military trips during war FDR landing in Malta in an aircraft where the hydraulics went out during a flight where he gave command to Eisenhower of D Day with the Joint staffs aboard, and as the plane is coming in for a landing at the airport that killed the President of Free Poland he takes out his cigarette lighter, takes out as smokes, puts a cigarette into his cigarette holder, lights it up, slaps Eisenhower on the knee, and he says, like, old boy, we're gonna see how good these Army Air Corps pilots are. Or when he's crossing the ocean on the battleship Iowa and the unluckiest ship in the US Navy accidentally discharges a torpedo right at the Iowa, which has to take evasive maneuvers. Fdr rushes to the rail to be able to watch the torpedo headed towards his ship.
00:33:29
Speaker 1: Calm and cool under fire.
00:33:32
Speaker 4: Look at Pete hag Seth always sweating through his shirt. Disgrace National Guard major festooned in Christian nationalist tattoos, extremist images, his sick pastor who believes slavery's good and women shouldn't vote. That's why we've lost the war and we're going to pay a very very high price for it. And trust me on this. We can't lose a war to Iran without fighting a bigger, more deadly war later. And that's what he's laying the circumstances for. And the last thing I want to say is any plane that Donald Trump is flying on is the safest plane in the world, because what enemy of the United States we'd ever shoot down? A plane filled with the fucking greatest imbeciles in American history, all gathered together, who do so much to weaken the United States. If there is an actual threat against that airplane, one would imagine as if from nowhere thousands of Chinese drones surrounding it saying we got your back, nothing will happen to you. Right to keep Trump alive, project of Jijing Peng is the most important national security problem, right, strategy of.
00:34:47
Speaker 1: The Chinese Government's fucking kidding me?
00:34:50
Speaker 3: Say with a RAN did you see what a RAN spokesperson said the other day? He's like, why would I try to assassinate him? He's destroying the United States single handedly?
00:34:57
Speaker 1: Absolutely right?
00:35:00
Speaker 4: Right, No, they're on the they're on the CAEP Trump alive, right from the from the from the Lego people. Yeah, right up right up to the right up to the Ayatola.
00:35:11
Speaker 2: The Lego people.
00:35:14
Speaker 3: There's a there's an example that exists in our lifetime. It's from a four and a half five years ago. There's a day in February where Russia invaded Ukraine. Joe Biden puts a call into Vladimir's Lensky and he's like, heyz hey, I could send a plane for you and your family from your closest aides right now, get you out of there. Do you know what Zelensky said to him, because I remember this clear as day, because it gives me chills. And juxtaposed this with Donald Trump hiding in a catering fucking truck.
00:35:46
Speaker 1: I don't need a ride. I need ammunition.
00:35:51
Speaker 2: I need bullets and plus.
00:35:55
Speaker 1: A comedian, yeah, who.
00:36:01
Speaker 4: Was famous in his country for playing the Ukrainian President a fictionalized comedic version on TV and Ukrainian feet in the most deadly serious moment in the history of modern Ukraine, says I don't need a ride, I need ammunition, and steps into a historical legacy that makes him the greatest man of this age, and I think is an important lesson for the American people that maybe, just maybe, though there are some outstanding US Senators who will run for president, and some governors, the couple House members, maybe maybe we ought to look a little further afield than people in federal or statewide political office, because leadership in the United States exists at many levels and in many places, very deeply beyond political leadership. If you were to unfairly stigmatize an entire cohort of people on the basis of their bad apples and stereotyping and say, well, none of you, as a category in type can ever hold any position of responsibility. That cohort that you would start with, is anybody an elective office right now?
00:37:35
Speaker 2: I thought you're going to say millennials.
00:37:36
Speaker 1: Right then it would be them, and then with some exceptions, yes, yes.
00:37:44
Speaker 4: But.
00:37:46
Speaker 1: I'm serious about that. Yeah.
00:37:49
Speaker 4: If you were to disqualify a group as a whole by judging it on its performance at the mean, that would be the group you would get rid of from consideration. And so my point here is not that we should do that, but it's that I think that when people look in the mirror and ask themselves a question, which is, should it be I who is the most powerful person in all the world with the nuclear weapons?
00:38:22
Speaker 1: And and and.
00:38:24
Speaker 4: When the answer bounces off that mirror and comes back to them, yes, right right, that that maybe some of those people ought ought not to be people who have spent their best years of their life pursuing votes at any.
00:38:46
Speaker 1: Means possible, by any means possible.
00:38:50
Speaker 3: You know, I won't we don't have a lot of time life going to get the last word with you in just a second, but just to kind of, you know, not that you need me to prop up your point about what leadership and character is. The Zelenski example one thing, the two FDR examples another thing. You know, And I go back to Donald Trump hating you. It's because he only likes himself, you know. And and I I shudder sometimes to think about the kind of leadership that a lot of people between the ages of ten and twenty five are watching out of Donald Trump. You know, I'm watching these these in cells and these these crazy fuckers down in Miami at the FDC doing push ups.
00:39:30
Speaker 2: For Andrew Tait.
00:39:31
Speaker 3: All right, and Andrew Tate has now got a bail hearing and apparently that was hustled by the Trump regime to some extent. To what extent, I really don't know, but to a large portion of our generation, specifically young men, Donald Trump to them, that's that's leadership, you know, in the examples that we've given people today of real presidents, real leaders, you know, people that lead by example with their lives, like Zelenski saying I don't need a ride any bullets. Again juxtaposed set against what we're seeing Donald Trump do, which is hiding catering trucks right and bill bunkers for himself, and while off the beauty, which was the White House lawn and the White House grounds. It's it's so apparent to me that he holds nothing, zero leadership virtues whatsoever, none. There is nothing presidential about this man. And Donald Trump hates you. He just hates you because he loves himself.
00:40:27
Speaker 4: I I think that we have a societal disaster crisis, whatever word you you wish to use, and I'm not and I'm not sure where to calibrate it exactly, but we have a we have a big problem with our young men. And and the reason we have a big problem with our young men is rooted in a political ideaology and rooted in a political response from from COVID. And I think the disclosure of the schools developmentally is landed harder on young men who are behind young women developmentally.
00:41:19
Speaker 1: To begin with.
00:41:21
Speaker 4: But what we said to our young men in a period now that is described as woke one.
00:41:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just heard that yesterday. I was surprised that we were oudy at woke too.
00:41:33
Speaker 2: I didn't know is that.
00:41:34
Speaker 4: They were collectively guilty of something. And this was very confusing. I know to my own son, right at fifteen or sixteen, trying to figure.
00:41:45
Speaker 1: Out what it was he was guilty of.
00:41:47
Speaker 4: Right, And so we didn't tell our young men that they were needed and necessary for the future of the country, and we certainly didn't teach them much about character. There the Boy Scouts, which was an essential organization, is the home of the largest sex abuse scandal in world history. That organization fundamentally disintegrated, and so there were fewer and fewer places to teach the principles of character. And then, as it says in scripture, false prophets are likely to arise, and Andrew Tate is such a false prophet. And we have young men openly, including the president's son, fetishizing rapists, fetishizing status, fetishizing organized criminals, scumbags with a connection to the White House, who runs around with the President's special envoys, his connection point maybe to Milania and Jeffrey Epstein, Paolo's and Pauli. All of it is stick. And so we we have to appreciate as a country that we need our young men. We need our young men to be healthy, and we need our democratic future leaders to reach out to America's young men to talk to them about duty and responsibility in the manner that John Kennedy did, talks to young people about the obligation and the responsibility, the duty they have to repair this country and and the happiness in the cause of repairing it. That there are some things more important in life than striving for a billion dollars. And and we have to teach that to our young men, about qualities of fairness and decency and right and wrong, concepts of honor. And Donald Trump filled a space because nature pours a vacuum. We have to look very very deeply, all of us, in opposition to this obscenity, how it is that indecency filled any vacuum. Why was there room for that indecency to take root? Why was there a place in so many young men's lives for an Andrew Tate, for Tristan Tate.
00:44:48
Speaker 1: What's missing? What's failing? And we better talk about it before it's too late.
00:44:57
Speaker 2: M Some would say it might be.
00:45:01
Speaker 3: I would like to think it isn't, and we do have work to do with our young men. You have a son, I've got a son. I've got three of them, and it was the greatest privilege in my lifetime, but also one of the greatest minefields I've ever had to travel trying to help my sons understand that they are not victims of anything. They are not to be blamed for being born into the skin and the family and the culture they were born into. They have to hold space for other people. They have to give away their privilege, not use it to hurt others, to succeed in front of other people, the community aspect and being of good character and acts for the greater good. I rose, I really did try to raise my kids with those stoic values that you're the author of your story, you're not a victim, and you don't have to find alternative ways to make money in an alternative means to have an alternative reality where you are somebody with a whole bunch of nobodies. It's not how America heals itself. And to your point, it's not how you raise young men is to tell them that the material goods external values. You know, being the cock of the walk, you know, having a role lex, having a Ferrari, you know, recording sixty second, the social media clips on the yacht. That doesn't make you a man, doesn't make you a man. And with that, I'll love to get your last words today if we can.
00:46:17
Speaker 1: No, it doesn't. It doesn't.
00:46:18
Speaker 4: And we have a generation that has been steeped in the lessons of taking, steeped in the immorality of might makes right. That you have a license to abuse with power, you have a license to break the rules with an office, and that punching down is what it means to be tough. And we have lost the ability, I think many of our young men to distinguish between a tough guy and a bully, between a coward and a fearless man. And we are a country that has become quick to chant Usa USA at the slightest provocation and we stand and we sing Home of the Brave. But when you look at the law firms, when you look at the media companies, the executives, the anchormen, the editors in chief, what I see is cowardice. What I see is capitulants. What I see is a bunch of kneelers. And what I see is a country rotting from within from the top down because of that cowardice, and it extends all the way out to those sailors and misery on the Abraham Lincoln fighting in a lost war of choice that Donald Trump was warned about, executed anyway, and we'll be dealing with the consequences of for the next general. And so across the board, every one of us who said this is what's going to happen, and it's going to be terrible, that we have run out of time and chances and luck with Trump, that this second term is going to be every bit as bad as we are saying it is.
00:48:19
Speaker 1: Going to be. We were right.
00:48:21
Speaker 4: People who said that were right, and it's worse, and we are in dangerous, dangerous days. We're going to have an unhinged fall. But in that fall, I think we're going to see two things. We're going to see a collapse of MAGA turnout at the polls, and we're going to see a surge of Independence and Democrats, Black voters and Hispanics, a total cratering of that coalition that elected Donald Trump narrowly. And I think you might see a Democratic advantage that hits as high as plus twenty. And if it goes to that high water tsunami mark with the corresponding collapse, I could think you could see election victories and places that haven't seen him in a generation, including Mississippi, including Louisiana, South Carolina, Independence in South Dakota and Kansas and Montana. And we'll we'll have to wait and see how this develops over the fall, but it's gonna be a wild one and we'll be here to cover it all the way.
00:49:19
