00:00:00.430 --> 00:00:06.299
Welcome to the 5 o'clock show. It's time for Common Sense. Now,
2
00:00:06.719 --> 00:00:10.880
it's Katz and Cosby with John Katzimatidis and Rita Cosby.
3
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:16.969
Standing for truth, justice, and the American way. Bringing common
4
00:00:17.089 --> 00:00:22.210
sense to the world. Now, here's John Katzimatidis and Rita Cosby.
5
00:00:33.890 --> 00:00:36.590
And, John, we love that General Raddick. That was that
6
00:00:36.659 --> 00:00:39.039
famous scene, of course, from Air Force One where they're
7
00:00:39.060 --> 00:00:41.179
marching the Russian general across.
8
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:42.060
Before he got shot?
9
00:00:42.380 --> 00:00:43.960
Yeah, before he got shot, exactly.
10
00:00:43.979 --> 00:00:45.340
Well, who's coming to New York today?
11
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:49.759
Well, today, El Sayed is in town. And, boy, John,
12
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:52.890
for a guy who would blast people who have money...
13
00:00:53.590 --> 00:00:55.490
First of all, he has no comprehension of what makes
14
00:00:55.530 --> 00:00:58.770
America work and hardworking people that it takes to get money.
15
00:00:59.090 --> 00:01:01.729
But for this big event, it's a big fundraiser and
16
00:01:01.770 --> 00:01:04.450
a whole bunch of Mondani people are there and others.
17
00:01:05.579 --> 00:01:10.170
It costs $ 250 to $ 57. thousand eight hundred.
18
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:13.030
Bucks i want disclosure who's writing the checks for 57
19
00:01:13.030 --> 00:01:15.400
000 yeah.
20
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:17.079
I we should know for a guy who blasts anybody
21
00:01:17.140 --> 00:01:19.140
who puts big money into it and he did an
22
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:21.719
interview with fox and the whole time it was like
23
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:25.099
i hate apec i hate this i hate that and
24
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:27.400
he wouldn't answer if it was a good idea to
25
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:28.480
go into iran.
26
00:01:28.219 --> 00:01:33.400
He says no everybody that gives 57 500 today is anti-semitic.
27
00:01:33.069 --> 00:01:35.349
Well i don't know judge weinberg what do you think
28
00:01:36.390 --> 00:01:38.730
I think for a guy who's against money in politics,
29
00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:42.120
getting all that money from all these affiliate organizations who
30
00:01:42.140 --> 00:01:45.200
are anti-American, as well as from his father-in-law, who's a
31
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:48.680
very wealthy guy who's connected to Islamists, is really problematic.
32
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:50.390
Why don't we go to Israel right now?
33
00:01:50.709 --> 00:01:55.030
Absolutely. And let's go to the ambassador from the United
34
00:01:55.090 --> 00:02:00.950
States to Israel, our dear friend Mike Huckabee. And Ambassador Huckerby,
35
00:02:00.989 --> 00:02:02.989
it's so great to have you here. This is Rita,
36
00:02:03.049 --> 00:02:06.500
John Katsimatidis, and Judge Richard Weinberg. And first of all,
37
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.280
I know it's a very somber anniversary there today on
38
00:02:10.300 --> 00:02:14.150
the Hebrew calendar. Talk about everything. You guys understand the
39
00:02:14.189 --> 00:02:15.090
fight all too well.
40
00:02:16.849 --> 00:02:19.030
Rita, it's a pleasure to be with you and John
41
00:02:19.069 --> 00:02:21.430
and the judge. I feel like I'm getting to play
42
00:02:21.449 --> 00:02:24.129
with the A-team today, so thank you for having me.
43
00:02:24.409 --> 00:02:25.550
With you, it's A-plus.
44
00:02:25.629 --> 00:02:28.159
With you, it's A-plus, my friend.
45
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:31.319
I think a lot of Americans may not fully understand
46
00:02:31.340 --> 00:02:34.960
the impact that October 7th had on the state of Israel.
47
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:40.240
Three years ago, over 1,200 people, including 46 Americans, they
48
00:02:40.259 --> 00:02:41.039
weren't just murdered.
49
00:02:41.500 --> 00:02:42.419
They were massacred.
50
00:02:42.460 --> 00:02:46.349
They were butchered. in ways that are so unspeakable I
51
00:02:46.389 --> 00:02:50.030
wouldn't even present them on a radio show without some
52
00:02:50.349 --> 00:02:54.770
qualifications because it was just the most vicious and intentionally
53
00:02:54.830 --> 00:02:58.569
hurtful thing to hurt people not only physically but emotionally
54
00:02:59.189 --> 00:03:02.520
and to humiliate them. But here we are three years
55
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:05.580
later and what concerns me is a lot of Americans
56
00:03:05.819 --> 00:03:09.419
don't fully comprehend what happened and what Israel had to
57
00:03:09.460 --> 00:03:12.639
do to respond to it. Let me give a little perspective.
58
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:16.460
If that same thing had happened to America and we
59
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:20.310
had terrorists who came across the southern border into San Diego,
60
00:03:21.270 --> 00:03:24.310
if you scaled it to the same population of America,
61
00:03:24.789 --> 00:03:28.629
it would be the equivalent of 40,000 Americans being butchered
62
00:03:28.689 --> 00:03:37.060
in one day, slaughtered. And I'm talking older people, little children, infants, mothers, fathers,
63
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:40.479
many women raped in front of their families and their
64
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:45.500
body parts severed from them. in front of their families,
65
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:50.159
if that had happened and then 10,000 Americans were taken
66
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.250
hostage back across the border and held under the most
67
00:03:53.310 --> 00:03:58.189
horrific conditions, beaten, starved, raped, what do you think America's
68
00:03:58.250 --> 00:04:00.949
response would be? Do you think America would send them
69
00:04:00.990 --> 00:04:03.750
a strongly worded letter and say, you're going to have
70
00:04:03.789 --> 00:04:05.900
to send those people back when you feel like it?
71
00:04:06.490 --> 00:04:08.789
I think we all know what America's response would be
72
00:04:09.210 --> 00:04:12.340
because we know what it was in New York 25
73
00:04:12.340 --> 00:04:17.720
years ago, when 3,000 Americans were murdered by terrorists and jihadists,
74
00:04:18.379 --> 00:04:22.139
imagine if 40,000 were murdered in one day and 10,000
75
00:04:22.139 --> 00:04:25.550
taken hostage. That's what Israel is dealing with on an
76
00:04:25.629 --> 00:04:28.910
emotional level, and it is not something that they're going
77
00:04:28.949 --> 00:04:31.129
to shake off because there is not one person in
78
00:04:31.230 --> 00:04:34.740
Israel that does not have a close friend, family member,
79
00:04:34.750 --> 00:04:38.480
or or someone they've worked with who either was not
80
00:04:38.540 --> 00:04:42.500
involved in October 7th, or their children, or they have
81
00:04:42.660 --> 00:04:45.199
themselves been involved in the war since.
82
00:04:46.060 --> 00:04:50.139
Yeah, absolutely. Nor should anybody around the world ever forget.
83
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:51.180
Judge Weinberg.
84
00:04:51.860 --> 00:04:55.060
Ambassador, Governor, good to talk to you again, sir. This
85
00:04:55.139 --> 00:04:58.699
is my problem. This is my problem. The day after,
86
00:04:59.019 --> 00:05:02.350
before Israel even responded, they had the kids on the
87
00:05:02.970 --> 00:05:08.370
school campuses in America, throughout Europe, protesting, saying, ceasefire now,
88
00:05:09.089 --> 00:05:11.790
no war, end the war. What was that all about?
89
00:05:11.870 --> 00:05:15.500
How pre-planned was this whole thing, and how orchestrated was this,
90
00:05:15.750 --> 00:05:17.819
and where's the moral compass of these people?
91
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:20.980
There is no moral compass, Judge, and I think that's
92
00:05:21.019 --> 00:05:24.680
what hurts the most, is that people are oblivious to
93
00:05:24.699 --> 00:05:28.079
the right and wrong. This is not a horizontal issue
94
00:05:28.100 --> 00:05:30.399
of the left versus the right. This is a vertical
95
00:05:30.509 --> 00:05:35.339
issue of good versus evil, light versus darkness. You cannot
96
00:05:35.459 --> 00:05:38.540
put this in the context of, well, both sides need
97
00:05:38.579 --> 00:05:42.000
to– no, both sides need not to even go there
98
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:45.829
because this was about a group of terrorists, not a government,
99
00:05:46.310 --> 00:05:50.350
not fighting a military, not going after military assets or targets.
100
00:05:50.850 --> 00:05:53.449
This was about a group of terrorists going into people's
101
00:05:53.790 --> 00:05:58.300
civilian homes and slaughtering as many of them as painfully
102
00:05:58.379 --> 00:06:03.009
as they possibly could, including– hundreds of young people who
103
00:06:03.029 --> 00:06:06.189
were simply gathered at a music festival because they were
104
00:06:06.209 --> 00:06:09.850
an easy target. And if we look at this in
105
00:06:10.029 --> 00:06:14.379
any other way, we're going to be belying the fact
106
00:06:14.420 --> 00:06:17.000
of what really happened that day and why it matters.
107
00:06:17.740 --> 00:06:18.399
It also is.
108
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:22.259
Important to remember that Hamas, like the Houthis and Hezbollah,
109
00:06:22.899 --> 00:06:28.149
are funded and they're also trained by the monsters of Iran.
110
00:06:28.769 --> 00:06:31.269
So if you want to stop what's happening in places
111
00:06:31.329 --> 00:06:36.769
like Gaza and Lebanon and places like Yemen, at some point,
112
00:06:36.990 --> 00:06:41.110
we have to deal with the mothership. You can't stop
113
00:06:41.269 --> 00:06:43.829
the poison coming out of the kitchen until you burn
114
00:06:43.850 --> 00:06:47.170
the kitchen down. And the kitchen is Tehran. It's why
115
00:06:47.290 --> 00:06:51.410
I'm so grateful President Trump finally has had the guts
116
00:06:51.470 --> 00:06:55.029
to do something when many presidents before him talked a
117
00:06:55.060 --> 00:06:58.350
good game, but they did not recognize the threat to
118
00:06:58.410 --> 00:07:01.930
America that Iran has posed for 47 and a half years.
119
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:06.319
You know, Ambassador Mike Huckabee there in Israel. tonight in
120
00:07:06.379 --> 00:07:09.060
New York City, there's going to be a big fundraiser
121
00:07:09.139 --> 00:07:13.259
for Abdul El-Sayed. That's the Michigan Senate candidate, the Democrat.
122
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:16.620
And he just was on with our friend Martha McCallum
123
00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:21.180
on Fox News. And she was asking him, you know, essentially, well,
124
00:07:21.220 --> 00:07:23.480
you can condemn the Muslim Brotherhood. He said, well, I'd
125
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:27.259
condemn anybody that he danced. He would not. He wouldn't
126
00:07:27.300 --> 00:07:31.579
condemn Hamas. He wouldn't condemn Sharia. I mean, what do
127
00:07:31.610 --> 00:07:33.509
you say when you've got somebody like that? And right
128
00:07:33.529 --> 00:07:36.290
now that race is anybody's guess in Michigan. I mean,
129
00:07:36.589 --> 00:07:39.089
if this guy becomes a senator, God help us.
130
00:07:40.610 --> 00:07:42.889
If a person can get to the United States Senate,
131
00:07:42.910 --> 00:07:45.589
which is supposed to be the world's greatest deliberative body,
132
00:07:46.230 --> 00:07:49.129
and they can't even deliberate whether or not the Muslim
133
00:07:49.170 --> 00:07:53.000
Brotherhood is evil, then we've lost the country because you
134
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:57.019
cannot have. The leading deliberative body of the United States
135
00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:01.129
of America under a constitution of civil rights that would
136
00:08:01.329 --> 00:08:06.860
somehow look the other way when terror activity is responsible
137
00:08:06.939 --> 00:08:10.540
for the murder of tens of thousands, if not millions
138
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:14.050
of people. And it often goes straight to the Muslim
139
00:08:14.079 --> 00:08:18.029
Brotherhood and these other jihadist groups. They don't hide their intentions.
140
00:08:18.449 --> 00:08:21.189
It's not because they want to have more mosques or
141
00:08:21.230 --> 00:08:23.970
because they want to have a greater influence on campuses
142
00:08:24.509 --> 00:08:27.610
or because they want to teach Arabic to everybody. Listen
143
00:08:27.649 --> 00:08:30.800
to what they say. Read what they've written. They want
144
00:08:30.819 --> 00:08:34.279
to kill every last one of us that they consider
145
00:08:34.340 --> 00:08:35.620
to be an infidel.
146
00:08:36.539 --> 00:08:39.120
And if they had a nuclear bomb, I was with
147
00:08:39.139 --> 00:08:42.210
the president Saturday afternoon. I spent it. a good hour
148
00:08:42.269 --> 00:08:48.509
with him, just about one-on-one. And you can't allow these
149
00:08:48.629 --> 00:08:52.690
mullahs to have a nuclear bomb because I don't think
150
00:08:52.769 --> 00:08:55.029
Putin would ever use one. I don't think Xi would
151
00:08:55.070 --> 00:08:58.419
ever use one. I don't even think North Korea, guys,
152
00:08:59.419 --> 00:09:02.220
is going to use one. But these mullahs, I think
153
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:02.799
they would use it.
154
00:09:04.379 --> 00:09:06.000
I don't have any doubt they would. They've been saying
155
00:09:06.179 --> 00:09:09.259
for 47 and a half years that death to Israel
156
00:09:09.299 --> 00:09:12.450
and death to America. Israel has only been the appetizer.
157
00:09:12.590 --> 00:09:16.009
Anyone who doesn't understand that hasn't been paying attention. America
158
00:09:16.070 --> 00:09:19.940
has always been the main event, and it's been their intention.
159
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:25.169
And in one year, from 2025 to 2026, they upped
160
00:09:25.370 --> 00:09:29.840
their capacity to deliver a ballistic missile from 2,100 kilometers
161
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:37.100
to 4,100 kilometers, which means from Tehran, they could reach London, Brussels, Paris, Rome, Berlin,
162
00:09:37.580 --> 00:09:41.100
most of Europe. And the Europeans rolled their eyes and
163
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:44.799
did nothing, said nothing, and acted like somehow that the
164
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:49.350
even efforts to stop the Iranian regime from having nuclear
165
00:09:49.379 --> 00:09:54.909
weapons was wrong without realizing that they... even more than America,
166
00:09:55.049 --> 00:09:58.450
are immediately vulnerable to what the Iranians wish to do.
167
00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:05.240
And it's, you know, we had a celebration, another celebration
168
00:10:05.259 --> 00:10:10.320
of 9-11 this year, and it was the 25th year.
169
00:10:10.980 --> 00:10:15.279
And WABC, along with the Pataki Foundation, along with Tunnels
170
00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:19.460
to Tower and Police Athletic League, we are all going
171
00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:24.019
to do it every 9-11 because American people should never
172
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:30.529
forget 9-11. Because I tell you, from 25 years ago
173
00:10:30.610 --> 00:10:34.649
to now, I can't believe what happened, what we got
174
00:10:34.669 --> 00:10:35.309
ourselves into.
175
00:10:36.889 --> 00:10:39.690
We look at that video, and as we all have
176
00:10:39.750 --> 00:10:44.450
over the past few weeks, as we observe this horrific event,
177
00:10:45.539 --> 00:10:49.279
And it still hits us all deeply and emotionally remembering
178
00:10:49.340 --> 00:10:53.419
that day. It changed the way every single American lives.
179
00:10:54.059 --> 00:10:56.200
Getting on an airplane has never been the same. Going
180
00:10:56.259 --> 00:10:58.879
into a major building or a business has never been
181
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:02.299
the same. The manner in which we do everything from
182
00:11:02.370 --> 00:11:06.129
national security to train the military, we have changed this
183
00:11:06.190 --> 00:11:08.870
country from top to bottom because of that one event.
184
00:11:08.990 --> 00:11:12.629
And we should have. If we don't understand that that
185
00:11:12.710 --> 00:11:15.580
was not a one and done, That was a one
186
00:11:15.940 --> 00:11:21.120
of was hoped to be one of many. And the
187
00:11:21.179 --> 00:11:24.720
vulnerability of this country is still here. I just want
188
00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:28.259
Americans to wake up and quit acting like that. Iran
189
00:11:28.299 --> 00:11:31.549
doesn't matter to America. They're not a threat to us.
190
00:11:33.009 --> 00:11:36.899
I'm so grateful for the president. for standing up to them,
191
00:11:37.340 --> 00:11:42.049
for attacking them militarily, for weakening them economically. Iran is
192
00:11:42.110 --> 00:11:44.710
in the weakest position that it has been in 47
193
00:11:44.710 --> 00:11:49.139
and a half years because President Trump has done something
194
00:11:49.179 --> 00:11:52.730
that the other presidents simply didn't really want to do.
195
00:11:53.509 --> 00:11:56.049
He's done it at great political risk, but he's doing
196
00:11:56.090 --> 00:11:58.649
it because he understands that his job as the president
197
00:11:59.009 --> 00:12:02.149
is to protect the American people. I'm hoping that they
198
00:12:02.220 --> 00:12:05.139
understand it. I hope they appreciate it. But whether they
199
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:09.159
do or don't, he's making the decisions that, honest to God,
200
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:10.740
are keeping Americans safer today.
201
00:12:11.309 --> 00:12:14.929
I agree. You know, Ambassador Mike Huckabee in Israel, I
202
00:12:14.990 --> 00:12:16.720
have to ask you about the fly Dubai because you
203
00:12:16.740 --> 00:12:21.340
brought up flights. What are we learning about this guy
204
00:12:21.980 --> 00:12:25.299
if he was acting on behalf of somebody? And how
205
00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:27.259
did he get on the plane? That's the other thing.
206
00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:30.740
We're finding out that he was barred from flying on
207
00:12:30.899 --> 00:12:34.649
Oman Airlines because he had radical beliefs and said kill
208
00:12:34.710 --> 00:12:37.850
all Jews. I mean, some really horrible things on social media.
209
00:12:38.250 --> 00:12:40.470
So he was barred there. How did he get to
210
00:12:40.509 --> 00:12:43.000
fly an airline that was going into Tel Aviv?
211
00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:47.600
I think those are questions that we'll have to have
212
00:12:47.620 --> 00:12:50.799
some answers and sooner rather than later. I think it's
213
00:12:50.860 --> 00:12:53.899
embarrassed the Emiratis because he was flying one of their
214
00:12:53.940 --> 00:12:57.710
planes after having been rejected Where did the breakdown come?
215
00:12:57.750 --> 00:12:59.809
We don't know the full answer to that, but clearly
216
00:12:59.850 --> 00:13:02.200
there was one. But one of the things that has
217
00:13:02.250 --> 00:13:05.860
happened is that all of the procedures of understanding, not
218
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:09.840
just the pilots, but everyone on that flight crew, having
219
00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:13.519
a much better understanding of who they are, what they
220
00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:16.559
have said on social media, what things they have written,
221
00:13:17.179 --> 00:13:22.929
what courses they workers. That's going to be judged in
222
00:13:22.970 --> 00:13:27.350
a new way. Now, I had the plumber, Yaniv Harun,
223
00:13:27.529 --> 00:13:29.350
in my office on Friday.
224
00:13:29.429 --> 00:13:30.149
At the embassy.
225
00:13:30.509 --> 00:13:33.740
We heard that he loved President Trump. And so I
226
00:13:34.220 --> 00:13:35.659
told the staff, I said, see if you can.
227
00:13:35.539 --> 00:13:36.159
Get a hold of him.
228
00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:38.860
Well, sure enough, two hours later, he's in my office.
229
00:13:39.419 --> 00:13:43.220
I had a hat that the president had signed. It
230
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:46.539
was one of his famous red MAGA hats. It was
231
00:13:46.580 --> 00:13:49.379
in my display case in the office. I got it,
232
00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:51.580
I handed it to Yaniv and I said, you know what?
233
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:55.600
This is a pretty special hat signed to the president,
234
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:58.100
but I'm gonna want you to have it because you're
235
00:13:58.139 --> 00:14:01.120
a hero, I'm not. You take this hat and is
236
00:14:01.139 --> 00:14:03.639
there anything you wanna say to the president? So I
237
00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:07.049
recorded him saying a statement to the president. I sent
238
00:14:07.090 --> 00:14:09.429
it to the president and then the president put it
239
00:14:09.509 --> 00:14:12.659
out on his social media platforms over the weekend. It
240
00:14:12.700 --> 00:14:16.360
was a wonderful experience to hear firsthand this plumber's story
241
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.820
who was sitting there on a flight with his wife
242
00:14:18.860 --> 00:14:23.179
and two daughters. This whole thing starts. He rushes to
243
00:14:23.220 --> 00:14:26.879
the cockpit. The pilot has opened the door. He disables
244
00:14:27.279 --> 00:14:30.850
the co-pilot, gets him in a choke hold. Then some
245
00:14:30.909 --> 00:14:34.179
others come and help subdue him. The plane is now
246
00:14:34.179 --> 00:14:38.000
30 seconds from hitting the ground. He rushes over. He's
247
00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:41.399
never flown an airplane, knows nothing about flying, but he
248
00:14:41.460 --> 00:14:45.379
watched a television show called Air Disasters. He reaches over,
249
00:14:45.450 --> 00:14:48.090
grabs the yoke, and pulls it out of what would
250
00:14:48.110 --> 00:14:51.250
have been a stall. By then, other people came to
251
00:14:51.269 --> 00:14:55.129
the cockpit. There was a reserve pilot, a relief pilot
252
00:14:55.149 --> 00:14:58.190
who was just flying deadhead. He came to the cockpit
253
00:14:58.230 --> 00:15:01.350
to fly what now was a very disabled airplane that
254
00:15:02.049 --> 00:15:04.629
And even though a piece of the tail had come
255
00:15:04.730 --> 00:15:08.779
off of it and the plane, it was a 737.
256
00:15:08.779 --> 00:15:12.440
It's 737, but it's not designed to handle that stress.
257
00:15:13.379 --> 00:15:16.179
There is one miracle after another. And I'm telling you
258
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.220
the hand of God himself.
259
00:15:18.620 --> 00:15:19.840
Absolutely.
260
00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:21.440
Those 174 people.
261
00:15:21.620 --> 00:15:25.139
And that captain, even though he was getting stabbed and hit,
262
00:15:25.580 --> 00:15:27.730
he made sure that he opened that door so that
263
00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:28.570
plumber can go in.
264
00:15:29.970 --> 00:15:32.730
And everyone in India, he's a pilot from India. I
265
00:15:33.169 --> 00:15:36.340
hope the entire nation of India is proud of that man.
266
00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:40.200
And I think they are because he did heroic things
267
00:15:40.259 --> 00:15:40.639
that day.
268
00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:43.600
Yeah, it's amazing. By the way, one of my favorite moments,
269
00:15:43.659 --> 00:15:48.940
Ambassador Mike Huckabee over the weekend was Netanyahu speaking to
270
00:15:49.220 --> 00:15:53.100
the Indian pilot and also Modi. And he said, hey,
271
00:15:53.139 --> 00:15:56.379
he said, come, I want you guys to come and
272
00:15:56.419 --> 00:15:58.730
I'm going to have you light the flame on Israeli
273
00:15:58.779 --> 00:16:01.690
Independence Day, which is one of the great honors. But
274
00:16:01.710 --> 00:16:03.549
you could I mean, how beautiful is that?
275
00:16:04.789 --> 00:16:05.529
It was beautiful.
276
00:16:05.789 --> 00:16:08.769
I'll tell you this, the entire nation of Israel, they
277
00:16:08.830 --> 00:16:12.240
needed something like this. They needed something to celebrate. There's
278
00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:14.580
so much Jew hate in the world. And for them
279
00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:18.600
to have this exact moment where God just said, folks,
280
00:16:18.940 --> 00:16:22.320
watch what I can do, even with a plumber and
281
00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:25.570
a severely injured pilot and with a group of just
282
00:16:25.750 --> 00:16:28.110
ordinary citizens, watch what I.
283
00:16:28.090 --> 00:16:28.730
Can do with them.
284
00:16:29.409 --> 00:16:31.429
And I think we all stood in awe, but there
285
00:16:31.470 --> 00:16:35.429
was celebrations throughout the nation of Israel for what did
286
00:16:35.509 --> 00:16:39.740
happen and great gratitude to God for what didn't happen.
287
00:16:40.659 --> 00:16:46.159
Now, how long can Iran hold on?
288
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:50.039
Hard to say that they can take a lot of
289
00:16:50.100 --> 00:16:53.320
pain because unlike it is in America, if people start
290
00:16:53.379 --> 00:16:57.330
feeling some pain, they scream, they yell, they threaten to
291
00:16:57.389 --> 00:17:01.100
throw people out of office. In Iran, if the people
292
00:17:01.179 --> 00:17:03.820
rise up and say, we can't afford to eat, we
293
00:17:03.860 --> 00:17:07.480
can't afford our fuel, we can't, you know, nothing works
294
00:17:07.539 --> 00:17:11.019
here anymore, well, they either get shot or hanged. So
295
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:16.079
it's a different circumstance. But having said that, John, I
296
00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:18.779
want to tell you something. They're the weakest they have been,
297
00:17:18.859 --> 00:17:21.000
and they get weaker every week. And what the president
298
00:17:21.059 --> 00:17:24.740
is doing to them economically, along with the brilliant strategy
299
00:17:25.099 --> 00:17:30.059
of Treasury Secretary Scott Besson, it is beginning to have
300
00:17:30.299 --> 00:17:34.160
a severe impact. They're going to have to deal with
301
00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:38.430
this somehow because they can't hold on indefinitely. They can
302
00:17:38.450 --> 00:17:41.069
hold on a little longer, but.
303
00:17:40.990 --> 00:17:42.369
They can't hold on forever.
304
00:17:42.410 --> 00:17:46.529
Their economy is crumbling, and there's been so much damage
305
00:17:46.569 --> 00:17:50.289
done to their own military and defense systems that they
306
00:17:50.349 --> 00:17:52.230
are the most vulnerable they've ever been.
307
00:17:52.250 --> 00:17:56.450
I said to the president when I saw him last
308
00:17:57.670 --> 00:18:01.339
at the I said, well, if you keep hitting the
309
00:18:01.460 --> 00:18:07.299
IRGC and you specify to the whole world you're only
310
00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:11.960
hitting the IRGC, 80% of the people say good for you.
311
00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:14.539
Yeah. Absolutely.
312
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:17.880
They're evil. And we have to recognize these are not
313
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.880
the normal people in a normal country doing normal things
314
00:18:21.940 --> 00:18:24.660
to simply protect their own sovereignty and their own interests.
315
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:29.289
These are people who aggressively want to destroy everyone who
316
00:18:29.309 --> 00:18:32.630
does not bow their knee to their radical jihadism.
317
00:18:32.970 --> 00:18:35.750
Last thing, because we got to go to John Solomon,
318
00:18:35.789 --> 00:18:40.549
who also works for the president, is that Bernie Sanders
319
00:18:40.569 --> 00:18:48.059
was saying, oh, I want peace. When you're dealing with
320
00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:54.119
the evil empire, when you're dealing with these dictators, is
321
00:18:54.180 --> 00:18:57.420
Bernie Sanders a big enough fool to say, I'm going
322
00:18:57.440 --> 00:18:58.559
to talk peace to them?
323
00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:02.319
Well, I'm afraid you may have answered your own question,
324
00:19:02.480 --> 00:19:05.420
and the answer is yes. Anybody who thinks that you
325
00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:08.990
deal with a bully by simply offering him an ice
326
00:19:09.049 --> 00:19:12.789
cream cone really has a problem in understanding how bullies think.
327
00:19:14.299 --> 00:19:19.329
The Iranians don't accept goodwill. They don't accept any sense
328
00:19:19.410 --> 00:19:24.029
of negotiation. They're not transactional. Their attitude is like so
329
00:19:24.069 --> 00:19:28.519
many in the radical Islamic world. If you're strong, you win.
330
00:19:28.579 --> 00:19:31.400
If you're weak, you lose. That's how it works. And
331
00:19:31.420 --> 00:19:34.519
the sooner we understand that and begin to apply that principle,
332
00:19:34.980 --> 00:19:37.519
the longer we survive.
333
00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:37.619
100%.
334
00:19:37.619 --> 00:19:40.380
Well, we are with you. And it's such an honor
335
00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:43.250
always to have you here, Ambassador Mike Huckabee. We love you.
336
00:19:43.849 --> 00:19:47.769
We love Israel. And we're standing strong for freedom together.
337
00:19:48.029 --> 00:19:50.509
It's one o'clock in the morning for you just about.
338
00:19:51.009 --> 00:19:52.960
Go to sleep and thank you for coming on.
339
00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:54.480
Thank you, John.
340
00:19:54.500 --> 00:19:55.299
Thank you very much.
341
00:19:55.599 --> 00:19:56.759
Judge, God bless you all.
342
00:19:56.859 --> 00:19:57.880
Thank you. You too.
343
00:19:58.000 --> 00:19:58.420
You too.
344
00:19:58.440 --> 00:19:58.940
We love you.
345
00:19:59.369 --> 00:20:01.450
And everybody, now let's go to some breaking news.
346
00:20:02.250 --> 00:20:06.190
Breaking news. W.A.B.C. That was a great interview. Wonderful.
347
00:20:06.390 --> 00:20:08.589
And from Israel. How beautiful that he stayed up.
348
00:20:08.650 --> 00:20:09.750
He stayed up to talk to us.
349
00:20:09.849 --> 00:20:10.970
A lot to talk about, too.
350
00:20:10.990 --> 00:20:12.750
He's just a wonderful public servant.
351
00:20:12.849 --> 00:20:13.289
He is.
352
00:20:13.430 --> 00:20:14.970
And a great American, too.
353
00:20:15.170 --> 00:20:16.039
He's God's person.
354
00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:16.619
He is.
355
00:20:16.759 --> 00:20:19.799
He truly is. And great fighter for freedom, too. And
356
00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:23.349
joining us now is another great patriotic American, John Solomon,
357
00:20:23.369 --> 00:20:25.329
who has some breaking news. John, fill us in. You
358
00:20:25.349 --> 00:20:27.910
had some big scoops with Jack Smith.
359
00:20:28.740 --> 00:20:31.049
What a tough act to follow. That was an amazing interview.
360
00:20:31.069 --> 00:20:32.470
I enjoyed listening to every bit of it.
361
00:20:32.470 --> 00:20:35.430
That was great. Hey, we're learning more and more about
362
00:20:35.470 --> 00:20:38.069
Jack Smith. And the more we learn, the uglier it gets.
363
00:20:38.450 --> 00:20:41.589
New documents released today by the White House, the task
364
00:20:41.609 --> 00:20:45.769
force that I'm chairing, overseeing, the White House Government Transparency
365
00:20:45.809 --> 00:20:49.230
Task Force, show that Jack Smith used a pen registered device.
366
00:20:49.789 --> 00:20:52.609
to monitor the calls coming into Susie Weil's phone while
367
00:20:52.670 --> 00:20:56.849
President Trump was running for the 2024 presidential election, specifically
368
00:20:56.930 --> 00:21:00.019
logging and mapping all the calls that the defense lawyers
369
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:04.000
were making to help defend President Trump against Jack Smith's
370
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:05.180
criminal prosecution.
371
00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:05.819
So think about that.
372
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:09.660
The government was using its surveillance powers to figure out
373
00:21:09.700 --> 00:21:13.240
what President Trump's legal strategy was by marking down all
374
00:21:13.269 --> 00:21:15.569
the calls in real time, like this lawyer called.
375
00:21:15.809 --> 00:21:17.009
Now, 21 lawyers.
376
00:21:17.049 --> 00:21:19.609
Calls were caught up in the dragnet of Jack Smith's
377
00:21:19.650 --> 00:21:23.670
pen register. In addition, journalists, myself included, were caught up
378
00:21:23.769 --> 00:21:26.430
and logged by the FBI, even though what we do
379
00:21:26.509 --> 00:21:27.529
is not criminal at all.
380
00:21:27.569 --> 00:21:31.369
We're armed. work is protected by the First Amendment.
381
00:21:32.410 --> 00:21:35.529
The FBI and the Jack Smith team are also looking
382
00:21:35.609 --> 00:21:40.539
at political action committee records for donors and expenditures, something
383
00:21:40.559 --> 00:21:42.559
that President Trump is completely allowed to do under the
384
00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:46.609
First Amendment. No suggestion it was related. to the classified
385
00:21:46.650 --> 00:21:51.630
documents case that allegedly Jack Smith was supposed to be investigating.
386
00:21:51.690 --> 00:21:56.220
So you've got First Amendment protected activities like politics and elections.
387
00:21:56.259 --> 00:22:01.380
You've got Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendment protected activities such
388
00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:04.720
as talking to your defense lawyers. And then, of course,
389
00:22:04.799 --> 00:22:09.700
last week we learned from Chuck Grassley that the article,
390
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:15.109
two powers of Congress were affected because the administration was
391
00:22:15.569 --> 00:22:18.470
in real time, getting the text messages and phone records
392
00:22:18.670 --> 00:22:19.829
of members of Congress.
393
00:22:19.529 --> 00:22:23.289
Doing their job in Congress. An incredible intrusion by the briefs.
394
00:22:23.309 --> 00:22:26.049
It looks like Jack Smith was running a political and
395
00:22:26.069 --> 00:22:29.609
legal espionage campaign masquerading as a criminal case.
396
00:22:30.869 --> 00:22:31.609
Judge Weinberg.
397
00:22:32.089 --> 00:22:35.130
I'm flabbergasted by this, John. Let me ask you a question.
398
00:22:35.349 --> 00:22:37.829
How did they get the authorization? Did they have a
399
00:22:37.890 --> 00:22:40.930
grand jury seated? Did they go to judges?
400
00:22:41.049 --> 00:22:42.750
How did that happen? How did it come?
401
00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:44.619
You know, you know how when I was In the
402
00:22:44.630 --> 00:22:46.579
state Supreme Court, I had to deal with issues of
403
00:22:47.079 --> 00:22:49.819
pen registers and search warrants. When I was a law
404
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.069
clerk to a federal judge, I had to deal with
405
00:22:52.109 --> 00:22:55.490
those issues. I'm just a guest. What kind of showing
406
00:22:55.529 --> 00:22:57.769
could I have possibly made and what kind of fraud
407
00:22:57.990 --> 00:23:00.220
was part of that showing to get a judge to
408
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:01.259
sign off on these things?
409
00:23:01.950 --> 00:23:04.690
It is amazing, specifically what they were collecting. I'm sure
410
00:23:04.730 --> 00:23:06.519
Susie Wiles made a lot of other calls, but the
411
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:08.440
calls that seemed to be of the greatest interest to
412
00:23:08.700 --> 00:23:11.740
Jack Smith were the defense team calls, the journalist calls,
413
00:23:12.140 --> 00:23:16.559
the political advisor calls, all things protected. by the First
414
00:23:16.640 --> 00:23:20.539
Amendment of the Constitution, particularly the First Amendment. You normally
415
00:23:20.579 --> 00:23:22.380
have to get a judge to sign off on a
416
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.390
pen register, so you have to make certain representations. We
417
00:23:25.430 --> 00:23:27.049
are looking to see if we can get any of
418
00:23:27.089 --> 00:23:30.970
those applications for the pen register released by the government.
419
00:23:31.009 --> 00:23:33.410
We hope to do that to see what claims they made,
420
00:23:33.490 --> 00:23:36.029
what they were claiming they were doing versus what they
421
00:23:36.109 --> 00:23:37.410
actually did, why.
422
00:23:37.230 --> 00:23:41.539
They believe they needed it to do an investigation.
423
00:23:41.579 --> 00:23:44.920
It was about old classified records that President Trump allegedly
424
00:23:44.940 --> 00:23:47.480
took with him when he left the White House for
425
00:23:47.539 --> 00:23:49.640
Mar-a-Lago back in 2021.
426
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:51.900
Pretty crazy that this stuff is getting swept up in
427
00:23:51.940 --> 00:23:52.859
that old case.
428
00:23:53.799 --> 00:23:56.160
I think time and again, we've heard Jim Jordan, the
429
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:59.920
House Judiciary Committee chairman, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, all
430
00:23:59.980 --> 00:24:03.630
saying this was a prosecutor who had no problem overreaching.
431
00:24:03.650 --> 00:24:05.809
And as we saw last week, He told us all
432
00:24:05.849 --> 00:24:08.349
during his Senate testimony he'd do it all again.
433
00:24:08.410 --> 00:24:09.670
No remorse at all.
434
00:24:10.069 --> 00:24:12.109
You know, I have a question, John, because when I
435
00:24:12.539 --> 00:24:14.119
think it I think it was you who broke this
436
00:24:14.160 --> 00:24:15.680
a couple of weeks ago when you were with us
437
00:24:16.140 --> 00:24:18.339
and you talked about these calls with Susie Wiles. Do
438
00:24:18.380 --> 00:24:21.339
we know if there was any listening? Because there were
439
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:24.670
reports that maybe they were aware of her conversation with
440
00:24:24.730 --> 00:24:29.400
her attorney, with the defense attorney for President Trump. prior
441
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:32.099
again to them coming into the White House again. So
442
00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:34.440
that would be interesting. And also, do we know if
443
00:24:34.460 --> 00:24:36.079
they know the contents of these calls?
444
00:24:37.599 --> 00:24:39.700
As of present, there's no evidence that there is a
445
00:24:39.740 --> 00:24:42.990
wiretap on Susie Wiles' phone. There just was a pen
446
00:24:43.009 --> 00:24:45.930
register which lists who calls who at what time for
447
00:24:45.990 --> 00:24:46.509
how long.
448
00:24:46.569 --> 00:24:48.529
That's what you get. You get the metadata of it.
449
00:24:48.930 --> 00:24:51.009
But then again, when you're doing it for the entire
450
00:24:51.029 --> 00:24:53.089
legal defense team, you can put together a pretty good
451
00:24:53.829 --> 00:24:55.950
A summary of what the legal defense team is doing
452
00:24:55.990 --> 00:24:58.329
every day, and that's what these memos show. There was
453
00:24:58.470 --> 00:25:03.230
one instance where Susie Wiles' conversations with the FBI and
454
00:25:03.279 --> 00:25:05.700
with her lawyer were recorded. It appears to be a
455
00:25:05.720 --> 00:25:09.839
consensual recording, the FBI and the lawyers. And Susie may
456
00:25:09.880 --> 00:25:11.559
have been on a phone, but everybody knew it was
457
00:25:11.579 --> 00:25:14.339
an FBI interview. Looks like that may have been recorded.
458
00:25:14.740 --> 00:25:17.599
That wouldn't in and of itself be a legal problem.
459
00:25:18.019 --> 00:25:21.019
The tracking of the lawyers and who was working with
460
00:25:21.039 --> 00:25:23.359
who on what day, doing what, That's going to be
461
00:25:23.400 --> 00:25:24.940
an issue I think likely to come up in the
462
00:25:24.980 --> 00:25:29.549
courts and certainly in future congressional investigations. Today, I talked
463
00:25:29.589 --> 00:25:33.230
to Jim Jordan, the House Judiciary Committee, very, very upset
464
00:25:33.349 --> 00:25:35.549
that this happened and saying it's further proof of why
465
00:25:35.609 --> 00:25:37.289
Jack Smith needs to be prosecuted.
466
00:25:37.309 --> 00:25:39.589
Of course, Jack Smith believes he did nothing wrong.
467
00:25:40.289 --> 00:25:42.210
Anything else you want to tell the American people?
468
00:25:42.890 --> 00:25:44.579
I got one that just happened a few seconds ago.
469
00:25:44.599 --> 00:25:46.099
It's really interesting.
470
00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:46.859
Breaking news.
471
00:25:46.900 --> 00:25:47.839
Yeah, breaking news.
472
00:25:47.900 --> 00:25:48.480
Here we go.
473
00:25:48.539 --> 00:25:49.359
Breaking news.
474
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:54.259
W.A.B.C. Look at that, right on cue.
475
00:25:54.900 --> 00:25:56.980
A brand new study out by the Center for Immigration
476
00:25:57.000 --> 00:26:00.039
Studies shows that there was a massive surge in terrorism-related
477
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:02.799
encounters at the southwest border in the last couple of years.
478
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:06.240
A reminder of just how dangerous our world is. We
479
00:26:06.289 --> 00:26:09.549
heard over the weekend about a possible plague outbreak in Russia.
480
00:26:09.609 --> 00:26:12.710
We know about the attempted efforts by Iran to assassinate
481
00:26:12.730 --> 00:26:19.210
the president. More than 11,250 terrorism-related encounters occurred at the
482
00:26:19.269 --> 00:26:21.390
southwest ports in the United States in the first 11 months.
483
00:26:22.529 --> 00:26:26.650
fiscal 2026. That is a remarkable number. It's a massive
484
00:26:26.710 --> 00:26:29.930
increase over the Biden years. What it tells you is
485
00:26:29.950 --> 00:26:31.630
the type of people still trying to come into the
486
00:26:31.670 --> 00:26:32.680
country today.
487
00:26:32.940 --> 00:26:35.700
Appear to have some mal interest in doing so.
488
00:26:35.720 --> 00:26:39.019
Do we have examples of what kind of like what
489
00:26:39.059 --> 00:26:42.160
they what some of these encounters were like how serious
490
00:26:42.200 --> 00:26:42.740
were some of them?
491
00:26:44.009 --> 00:26:46.549
Some of these people were on the terrorist screening list,
492
00:26:46.589 --> 00:26:48.609
meaning they were known to have terrorism ties when they
493
00:26:48.650 --> 00:26:50.930
tried to come across the border. Many of them are
494
00:26:51.009 --> 00:26:55.440
part of the cartels that are now designated as terrorist organizations.
495
00:26:56.140 --> 00:26:58.180
All of them, though, if you make this list, you're
496
00:26:58.200 --> 00:27:03.279
in that 12,000 group, excuse me, 11,250 group, you're flagged
497
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:06.180
in a database either for being part of a cartel
498
00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:09.440
or having ties with terrorists in the country or outside
499
00:27:09.480 --> 00:27:14.769
the country. It's a really remarkable increase. I mean, and
500
00:27:14.829 --> 00:27:18.609
the year before, it was just 3,700 such encounters. If
501
00:27:18.650 --> 00:27:21.269
you go back to the Biden years, much fewer than that.
502
00:27:21.390 --> 00:27:23.250
Of course, the Biden a lot of times were.
503
00:27:23.160 --> 00:27:23.940
Waving people in.
504
00:27:24.220 --> 00:27:26.059
So you didn't even get encountered by the CPP.
505
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:27.259
You just came across the border.
506
00:27:27.299 --> 00:27:30.099
But there is something about the type of person trying
507
00:27:30.119 --> 00:27:32.460
to come into the country now that appears to be
508
00:27:32.500 --> 00:27:34.369
wanting to do harm to this country. And that's why
509
00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:37.369
what the Customs and Border Protection Agency does every day
510
00:27:37.650 --> 00:27:38.490
is so important.
511
00:27:39.170 --> 00:27:48.819
Now, last question, John. Is the British have very low
512
00:27:48.859 --> 00:27:51.799
responsibility and we had to move those airplanes?
513
00:27:52.819 --> 00:27:55.240
There's a lot of concern that Great Britain wasn't on
514
00:27:55.279 --> 00:27:57.319
the ball and that.
515
00:27:57.319 --> 00:28:00.309
Our military equipment, including the B-2 bombers that have done
516
00:28:00.369 --> 00:28:04.809
such extraordinary work in taking out the Iranian nuclear facilities,
517
00:28:05.230 --> 00:28:08.670
were at greater risk than Great Britain could mitigate.
518
00:28:09.079 --> 00:28:10.579
And so we moved the assets.
519
00:28:11.059 --> 00:28:13.920
It's a reminder of so many of the dynamics going
520
00:28:13.980 --> 00:28:15.519
on in Great Britain. Not only is it a far
521
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:20.119
left government that has infringed on free speech. But there's
522
00:28:20.160 --> 00:28:25.009
a growing amount of radical Islamists in the country showing themselves.
523
00:28:25.190 --> 00:28:27.269
You saw those three guys outside the base, and that
524
00:28:27.289 --> 00:28:30.450
led to six arrests totaled. There is growing concern that
525
00:28:30.470 --> 00:28:32.930
this is a country that's losing control of its law
526
00:28:33.049 --> 00:28:34.710
and order, and it's not.
527
00:28:34.529 --> 00:28:35.369
A safe location.
528
00:28:35.410 --> 00:28:37.430
Who would have ever thought we'd be talking in 2026
529
00:28:37.430 --> 00:28:40.480
that our once great ally, Great Britain, isn't a safe
530
00:28:40.519 --> 00:28:43.119
place for our sensitive planes to be? That was a
531
00:28:43.180 --> 00:28:45.559
watershed moment in U.S.-British relations.
532
00:28:45.740 --> 00:28:48.960
Of all the places, Great Britain is not a safe
533
00:28:49.019 --> 00:28:52.220
place to be. And, you know, I kept telling everybody,
534
00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:56.049
me and you, we kept telling everybody that the real
535
00:28:56.109 --> 00:28:58.930
reason for Brexit is they woke up one morning, And
536
00:28:58.950 --> 00:29:02.049
they lost their country. When is Germany and France going
537
00:29:02.069 --> 00:29:02.799
to realize them?
538
00:29:04.210 --> 00:29:06.799
That is a very powerful question. And Spain, another place
539
00:29:06.819 --> 00:29:08.400
that has a lot of problems right now.
540
00:29:08.579 --> 00:29:10.660
By the way, we have a guest later on. Jose
541
00:29:10.680 --> 00:29:12.900
Santamaria is going to give us the latest on that.
542
00:29:12.920 --> 00:29:14.599
You saw they have a new election. They're doing a
543
00:29:14.619 --> 00:29:15.319
snap election.
544
00:29:16.019 --> 00:29:19.619
Enormous unrest in these European countries because they allowed their
545
00:29:19.640 --> 00:29:22.759
craziness to go too far. And now the social safety
546
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:26.329
network and the security network of these countries are at
547
00:29:26.420 --> 00:29:26.900
great risk.
548
00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:30.079
John, keep your eyes open for all of us. And
549
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:33.380
the American people have to realize this is the most
550
00:29:33.380 --> 00:29:35.680
important election of our lifetime.
551
00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:36.470
And that it is.
552
00:29:36.609 --> 00:29:39.210
And we can't allow our country to be taken over.
553
00:29:40.339 --> 00:29:40.539
Yeah.
554
00:29:40.660 --> 00:29:42.920
These are important times. I love listening to your show, guys.
555
00:29:42.940 --> 00:29:43.900
Thanks for having me.
556
00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:45.059
We love you, John.
557
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:45.680
Thank you.
558
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:47.440
And you guys, we're going to take a break. And
559
00:29:47.460 --> 00:29:49.299
then when we come back, we're going to talk to
560
00:29:49.339 --> 00:29:52.019
Michael Watley. He is in a big race there. That's
561
00:29:52.059 --> 00:29:54.680
for the North Carolina Senate. And he's going to fill
562
00:29:54.700 --> 00:29:56.500
us in the latest on that race. We're going to
563
00:29:56.519 --> 00:29:58.220
go to North Carolina to the Tar Heel State.
564
00:29:58.240 --> 00:29:59.859
Directly to North Carolina. I'll take that one.
565
00:30:00.019 --> 00:30:00.680
All right, great.
566
00:30:03.980 --> 00:30:08.009
Common Sense Recap of the Day's Biggest Stories. It's John
567
00:30:08.049 --> 00:30:12.730
Katsimidides and Rita Cosby. Kats and Cosby on 77 WABC.
568
00:30:12.769 --> 00:30:16.470
Calling in right now.
569
00:30:16.150 --> 00:30:18.940
Is Michael Motley, and he is the former chair of the...
570
00:30:19.220 --> 00:30:23.380
RNC for five years when we were very, very successful.
571
00:30:23.680 --> 00:30:27.910
And now he's running for North Carolina, United States Senate.
572
00:30:28.029 --> 00:30:31.230
Michael Whatley, you're one good friend. You're one smart guy.
573
00:30:31.390 --> 00:30:33.700
How are we doing? And we have to win this
574
00:30:33.779 --> 00:30:34.519
one for the president.
575
00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:37.240
Yeah, we absolutely have to win it. North Carolina is
576
00:30:37.460 --> 00:30:41.480
always a battleground state. It is always extremely close. It
577
00:30:41.569 --> 00:30:44.509
is going to be extremely close this time. We came
578
00:30:44.569 --> 00:30:47.470
out of Labor Day where the polls are absolutely tightening.
579
00:30:47.869 --> 00:30:50.170
People are starting to pay attention. I have been to
580
00:30:50.329 --> 00:30:53.980
all 100 counties across this state, and I've talked to
581
00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:56.299
people from the mountains to the coast and the cities
582
00:30:56.359 --> 00:30:59.440
and the farms. And everywhere I go, people tell me
583
00:30:59.460 --> 00:31:01.640
they want a fighter. They want somebody who's going to
584
00:31:01.700 --> 00:31:04.690
fight for them, fight for their families, fight for their communities.
585
00:31:05.069 --> 00:31:08.150
And they know my opponent, Roy Cooper, all he's going
586
00:31:08.170 --> 00:31:11.210
to do is fight for criminals, illegal aliens. And he's
587
00:31:11.230 --> 00:31:13.549
going to fight for the activists who want boys and
588
00:31:13.589 --> 00:31:14.250
girls sports.
589
00:31:14.690 --> 00:31:17.059
Well, you know, when I saw the president in the
590
00:31:17.140 --> 00:31:21.059
last week or so, you know, we said we said
591
00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:24.450
we want to make America drug free. And we don't
592
00:31:24.490 --> 00:31:27.740
make any of these drugs. These drugs, they come in
593
00:31:28.140 --> 00:31:33.019
from foreign places. I mean, the president solved Venezuela problem.
594
00:31:33.339 --> 00:31:36.920
And the president, and I don't understand. When Venezuela, with
595
00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:42.500
those boats coming in, with all the drugs, killing our children,
596
00:31:43.220 --> 00:31:47.220
Why did the Democrats and tell us the Democrats said
597
00:31:47.500 --> 00:31:50.799
we shouldn't be shooting down those boats? Michael Watley, I
598
00:31:50.839 --> 00:31:53.369
couldn't understand that. Tell me. Yeah.
599
00:31:53.380 --> 00:31:56.170
And you think about the biggest pathway for those drugs
600
00:31:56.250 --> 00:31:58.829
to get into the United States was across that southern border.
601
00:31:59.269 --> 00:32:02.769
Joe Biden opened it up. The Democrats fought every single day.
602
00:32:03.230 --> 00:32:06.029
for illegal immigrants so that they could have those caravans
603
00:32:06.089 --> 00:32:09.460
coming across the line. The president has secured the border,
604
00:32:09.799 --> 00:32:13.180
and we have seen fentanyl deaths plummet. We have seen
605
00:32:13.200 --> 00:32:17.819
crimes from migrants absolutely plummet. We've seen rent and housing
606
00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:22.000
prices are going down because President Trump shut off that border.
607
00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:25.380
My opponent, Roy Cooper, he is a sanctuary city kind
608
00:32:25.420 --> 00:32:27.869
of guy. He is going to fight harder for illegal
609
00:32:27.900 --> 00:32:29.750
immigrants than he is the people of North Carolina.
610
00:32:30.809 --> 00:32:34.349
That is horrible. I mean, the people from North Carolina,
611
00:32:34.650 --> 00:32:41.119
don't they understand the fact that he criticized the president
612
00:32:41.460 --> 00:32:44.529
for shooting down the boats that were bringing in the
613
00:32:44.589 --> 00:32:46.150
drugs to kill our kids?
614
00:32:46.589 --> 00:32:49.069
Yeah, well, he's also the same guy that let thousands
615
00:32:49.130 --> 00:32:51.990
of criminals out of prison because he didn't want them
616
00:32:52.009 --> 00:32:54.029
to get COVID. And he put the worst of the
617
00:32:54.089 --> 00:32:57.029
worst of rapists and pedophiles and murderers back on the
618
00:32:57.069 --> 00:32:59.559
streets of North Carolina. So this is a guy who
619
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:03.180
has throughout his entire career fought harder for criminals than
620
00:33:03.220 --> 00:33:04.000
he does the victims.
621
00:33:04.319 --> 00:33:08.460
But you guys, as a person that comes to visit,
622
00:33:08.539 --> 00:33:14.710
you guys have beautiful beaches. North Carolina is.
623
00:33:14.660 --> 00:33:15.329
A great state.
624
00:33:15.430 --> 00:33:18.109
The people of North Carolina have to realize that we
625
00:33:18.130 --> 00:33:20.009
gotta keep North Carolina safe.
626
00:33:20.349 --> 00:33:23.470
Yeah, that's absolutely the number one priority for any government,
627
00:33:23.569 --> 00:33:26.109
whether it's a local government, a state government, or a
628
00:33:26.150 --> 00:33:28.990
federal government, is keeping our citizens safe, right? We call
629
00:33:29.029 --> 00:33:31.230
it protecting our kids and our communities. I have the
630
00:33:31.289 --> 00:33:34.630
endorsement of the Police Benevolent Association, the Fraternal Order of
631
00:33:34.670 --> 00:33:37.910
the Police, the Highway Troopers Association, the Border Patrol, and
632
00:33:37.950 --> 00:33:39.789
sheriffs from one end of the state to the other,
633
00:33:39.890 --> 00:33:42.089
because they know I'm going to back the blue every
634
00:33:42.130 --> 00:33:44.730
single day, and I'm going to work relentlessly to make
635
00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:47.410
sure that our Army, our Navy, our Air Force, Marines,
636
00:33:47.470 --> 00:33:50.539
our Coast Guard are going to be strong enough to
637
00:33:50.559 --> 00:33:53.180
be able to protect our interests, both home and abroad.
638
00:33:53.500 --> 00:34:01.410
Well, what is another big difference between yourself and your opponent?
639
00:34:01.569 --> 00:34:04.630
Yeah, Roy Cooper made stuff cost more. This is a guy,
640
00:34:04.670 --> 00:34:08.820
when he was governor, drove up electricity rates 30%. because
641
00:34:08.860 --> 00:34:11.860
of his Green New Deal policies while he's taken home
642
00:34:11.920 --> 00:34:14.139
millions in a sweetheart solar deal. This is a guy
643
00:34:14.199 --> 00:34:18.460
who passed regulations and executive orders that raised rent and
644
00:34:18.500 --> 00:34:21.639
housing prices significantly because he added tens of thousands of
645
00:34:21.699 --> 00:34:24.860
dollars to the cost of every home with regulatory compliance.
646
00:34:25.239 --> 00:34:29.150
This is a guy who made healthcare more expensive, 183%
647
00:34:29.150 --> 00:34:32.389
increase in health insurance premiums while he was governor of
648
00:34:32.449 --> 00:34:35.489
North Carolina. No wonder he's taken in hundreds of thousands
649
00:34:35.550 --> 00:34:38.650
of dollars from health insurance companies and executives right now.
650
00:34:38.809 --> 00:34:39.750
The flip side of that.
651
00:34:39.989 --> 00:34:42.409
I'm gonna fight every day for families to make more
652
00:34:42.530 --> 00:34:44.539
and keep more of their money. We need more jobs,
653
00:34:44.579 --> 00:34:46.679
we need better jobs. We need to make sure that
654
00:34:47.059 --> 00:34:49.719
we're gonna bring down inflation, we're gonna bring down interest
655
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:52.179
rates and costs, and we're gonna let people keep more
656
00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:55.519
of their money by getting rid of taxes rather than
657
00:34:55.579 --> 00:34:57.199
raising them like my opponent wants to.
658
00:34:57.480 --> 00:35:03.550
Well, keep North Carolina safe. Keep North Carolina, I mean,
659
00:35:03.710 --> 00:35:10.289
common sense. Make sure your police officers get their job done.
660
00:35:10.429 --> 00:35:11.449
And we don't have.
661
00:35:11.349 --> 00:35:16.280
People opposing the police and opposing to make a North Carolina,
662
00:35:18.440 --> 00:35:20.639
safe for the tourists like me, but safe for the
663
00:35:20.679 --> 00:35:23.280
people of North Carolina. But thank you so much for
664
00:35:23.320 --> 00:35:27.820
coming on this Monday night. And give us your website
665
00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:29.820
so people can contribute if they can.
666
00:35:30.119 --> 00:35:34.429
MichaelWatley.com, and they can follow us on social media at WatleyNC.
667
00:35:35.110 --> 00:35:36.949
At Watley MC.
668
00:35:37.409 --> 00:35:37.829
Okay.
669
00:35:37.989 --> 00:35:42.309
At Watley MC. Thank you so much. And I'll be
670
00:35:42.329 --> 00:35:45.070
talking to you real soon and keep America safe. Thank
671
00:35:45.090 --> 00:35:45.530
you so much.
672
00:35:45.769 --> 00:35:46.230
Thanks, John.
673
00:35:47.230 --> 00:35:49.429
Well, let's see, John, this is going to be interesting.
674
00:35:49.570 --> 00:35:52.429
I can't believe it. You guys, we have four weeks
675
00:35:52.909 --> 00:35:57.380
until election day, four weeks until election day and judge
676
00:35:57.420 --> 00:36:00.960
the stakes couldn't be higher, whether it's North Carolina or Michigan.
677
00:36:01.420 --> 00:36:04.829
It's absolutely essential. that you have checks and balances against
678
00:36:04.849 --> 00:36:08.590
the radical extremists, whether they're socialists, whether they're Islamists. The
679
00:36:08.630 --> 00:36:10.769
only way you do that is by electing people like
680
00:36:10.809 --> 00:36:13.159
Whatley and the other Republican Senate candidates.
681
00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.579
Yeah, people who are protecting America.
682
00:36:15.739 --> 00:36:16.059
Absolutely.
683
00:36:16.079 --> 00:36:18.360
That's the bottom line. And you guys, we're going to
684
00:36:18.380 --> 00:36:21.880
talk to Brigadier General Blaine Holt, also Bill O'Reilly and
685
00:36:21.940 --> 00:36:24.739
Jose Santa Maria. But, John, first we have something.
686
00:36:25.039 --> 00:36:28.360
Well, the top news of the day was sponsored by
687
00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:29.219
Goya Foods.
688
00:36:29.400 --> 00:36:30.260
And we love Goya.
689
00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:31.599
I love those Goya beans.
690
00:36:32.280 --> 00:36:35.440
It's the top news of the day, sponsored by Goya.
691
00:36:35.500 --> 00:36:36.739
Here's Rita Cosby.
692
00:36:37.420 --> 00:36:40.539
And here are some of the headlines, guys. The nation's
693
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:43.679
longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House has died at the
694
00:36:43.719 --> 00:36:47.360
age of 84. Dennis Haster passed away due to natural
695
00:36:47.400 --> 00:36:51.440
causes in Illinois over the weekend. Also, the U.S. Supreme
696
00:36:51.480 --> 00:36:54.340
Court has started a new term today. Among some of
697
00:36:54.360 --> 00:36:57.710
the cases, whether federal courts have the authority to review
698
00:36:57.769 --> 00:37:03.340
disputes involving veterans benefits. And President Trump is visiting Nebraska
699
00:37:03.460 --> 00:37:06.599
ahead of the midterm elections at a rally at Grand
700
00:37:06.900 --> 00:37:11.980
Island alongside Republican Senator Pete Ricketts as his. He is
701
00:37:12.019 --> 00:37:16.010
campaigning right now for re-election. It is a big midterm year,
702
00:37:16.210 --> 00:37:18.869
as we have been talking about. And when we come back,
703
00:37:19.329 --> 00:37:23.019
what's this about a bubonic plague? Maybe in Russia? We'll
704
00:37:23.059 --> 00:37:25.840
talk to Brigadier General Blaine Holt right after the break.
705
00:37:29.409 --> 00:37:32.449
We're commuting home with Katz and Cosby.
706
00:37:32.670 --> 00:37:38.489
Now, here's John Katzimatidis and Rita Cosby on 77 WABC.
707
00:37:39.469 --> 00:37:41.610
Breaking news, WABC.
708
00:37:42.170 --> 00:37:45.590
Well, the United States is monitoring what may be a
709
00:37:45.730 --> 00:37:50.409
bubonic plague death in Russia. A lab worker fell ill
710
00:37:50.489 --> 00:37:53.940
after breaking a tube in a lab, and now hundreds
711
00:37:53.960 --> 00:37:56.860
are being monitored. Let's go to Brigadier General Blaine Holt.
712
00:37:57.400 --> 00:37:59.550
What do you know about this and how serious and
713
00:37:59.570 --> 00:38:00.849
how dangerous could this be?
714
00:38:02.179 --> 00:38:03.420
Well, it could be dangerous.
715
00:38:04.780 --> 00:38:07.510
What I really like is that here we have a
716
00:38:07.690 --> 00:38:12.250
proactive group in Dr. Peter McCullough's McCullough Foundation that has
717
00:38:12.289 --> 00:38:16.949
already hit the ground running. They are identifying that doxycycline
718
00:38:17.570 --> 00:38:23.519
is 97% effective for this malady, and they're getting the
719
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:25.960
word out as fast as possible so that we can
720
00:38:26.000 --> 00:38:27.820
be prepared if this thing gets out of hand.
721
00:38:27.880 --> 00:38:29.519
The other part is.
722
00:38:30.019 --> 00:38:32.030
We need to go back and do a little bit
723
00:38:32.070 --> 00:38:37.690
of forensics into virology meetings on the Chinese border with
724
00:38:37.750 --> 00:38:41.650
this group. Russia is now saying nothing is happening, nothing
725
00:38:41.690 --> 00:38:45.820
to see here. We need to find out how investigative
726
00:38:45.860 --> 00:38:50.559
journalist Annie Jacobson knew all about this early on and
727
00:38:50.579 --> 00:38:54.599
wrote a fiction book about a Siberian bubonic plague release
728
00:38:54.679 --> 00:38:57.320
in July. We need to find out A whole lot
729
00:38:57.360 --> 00:39:00.239
of things. But look, welcome to fifth generation warfare in
730
00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:02.920
the environment. Are we looking down the throat of a pandemic?
731
00:39:03.420 --> 00:39:05.000
Stick with McCullough and I think we're going to be
732
00:39:05.019 --> 00:39:05.480
just fine.
733
00:39:05.619 --> 00:39:05.800
Wow.
734
00:39:05.840 --> 00:39:07.579
But you know what? It reminds us of like a
735
00:39:07.659 --> 00:39:08.920
like a Wuhan lab deal.
736
00:39:09.719 --> 00:39:10.139
It does.
737
00:39:10.719 --> 00:39:11.719
It's the same recipe.
738
00:39:12.579 --> 00:39:16.570
So if you don't have readily available antibiotics and you
739
00:39:16.590 --> 00:39:19.510
don't catch it early enough, this thing can kill within
740
00:39:19.510 --> 00:39:22.289
18 hours is my understanding. And we do need to
741
00:39:22.349 --> 00:39:24.250
find out, is this a weaponized version?
742
00:39:25.809 --> 00:39:26.469
What are the stakes?
743
00:39:26.510 --> 00:39:28.989
There's just so much to come. The problem is if
744
00:39:29.010 --> 00:39:33.679
we go back to COVID. the dearth of credibility that
745
00:39:33.739 --> 00:39:37.539
is out there from government medical professionals all around the
746
00:39:37.579 --> 00:39:41.300
world and the WHO is stunning. And what I worry
747
00:39:41.360 --> 00:39:44.219
about is very good advice could get bypassed just because
748
00:39:44.260 --> 00:39:47.750
people are like, hey, look, you got me once, you're
749
00:39:47.769 --> 00:39:48.489
not getting me again.
750
00:39:48.860 --> 00:39:52.360
Yeah, great points. Blaine Holt, Judge Weinberg.
751
00:39:52.860 --> 00:39:54.610
General, let me ask, good to talk to you, sir.
752
00:39:54.639 --> 00:39:56.789
Let me ask this question. Do we have the necessary
753
00:39:56.829 --> 00:40:00.130
medicines here in the United States not dependent on anybody
754
00:40:00.349 --> 00:40:02.369
to protect the United States population?
755
00:40:02.389 --> 00:40:03.090
It doesn't exist.
756
00:40:04.130 --> 00:40:05.289
So that's the good news.
757
00:40:05.989 --> 00:40:09.159
Since Nick Holcher has pointed out that doxycycline is our friend,
758
00:40:09.179 --> 00:40:13.500
I can tell you that that's one of the most common, cheapest,
759
00:40:14.269 --> 00:40:18.750
readily available antibiotics that are out there. You know, they
760
00:40:18.809 --> 00:40:21.250
just threw them at us in the military any time
761
00:40:21.269 --> 00:40:23.409
we'd go to fight to ward off malaria and stuff.
762
00:40:23.429 --> 00:40:26.219
And we have sufficient numbers here to protect our populace?
763
00:40:26.239 --> 00:40:28.239
Absolutely, we do. Thank God for that.
764
00:40:28.400 --> 00:40:30.900
Now, this is interesting, you guys. It's just crossing to that,
765
00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:35.159
like President Trump is saying, that we will help them,
766
00:40:36.139 --> 00:40:39.289
that we're offering to help Russia. Yeah, breaking news on this.
767
00:40:39.349 --> 00:40:39.849
Here we go.
768
00:40:39.869 --> 00:40:41.809
Breaking news, WABC.
769
00:40:41.829 --> 00:40:44.829
So here it is, Blaine Holt, saying that Trump is
770
00:40:44.869 --> 00:40:49.019
offering Putin a lifeline, saying that Russia's sort of scrambling
771
00:40:49.059 --> 00:40:51.619
to contain this, that we have the abilities more. The
772
00:40:51.659 --> 00:40:54.659
question is, what we're hearing is that Russia doesn't really
773
00:40:54.699 --> 00:40:57.159
want to give much information to us, and that's troubling.
774
00:40:58.010 --> 00:40:59.010
Well, it's troubling.
775
00:40:59.070 --> 00:41:01.539
It's very Cold War-ish of them, I would say. But
776
00:41:01.699 --> 00:41:05.340
isn't it great that our president is standing up and
777
00:41:05.380 --> 00:41:09.280
being a humanitarian and a diplomat first and a warfighter third.
778
00:41:10.099 --> 00:41:12.360
That's what's good for the planet. And what we need
779
00:41:12.380 --> 00:41:15.119
to do is encourage President Putin to be as transparent
780
00:41:15.159 --> 00:41:17.880
as possible. We need to work on this together. And
781
00:41:17.900 --> 00:41:20.960
then we need to leave no stone unturned wherever the
782
00:41:21.039 --> 00:41:24.860
facts take us around the entire globe, even our United
783
00:41:24.909 --> 00:41:25.789
States of America.
784
00:41:26.050 --> 00:41:30.099
Well, and here's another doozy. Speaking of Putin, Did you
785
00:41:30.139 --> 00:41:33.199
hear this, that Putin has unleashed a guy by the
786
00:41:33.260 --> 00:41:37.800
name of General Armageddon, who at one point called for
787
00:41:37.820 --> 00:41:40.969
the war to go nuclear. He was in exile for
788
00:41:41.010 --> 00:41:43.090
a long time, and now that guy is being brought
789
00:41:43.130 --> 00:41:47.550
back by Russia. That's kind of troubling. Apparently, this guy is, like, ruthless.
790
00:41:48.219 --> 00:41:50.710
You may know what he's a 59 year old guy.
791
00:41:50.750 --> 00:41:52.889
Tell us about this guy. And what does that mean
792
00:41:52.909 --> 00:41:56.389
for the war? Because they just pounded. I saw over
793
00:41:56.429 --> 00:42:00.019
the weekend, a bridge that's used by people were like
794
00:42:00.079 --> 00:42:02.639
traveling middle of the day there in Kiev. And they
795
00:42:02.679 --> 00:42:05.090
took out a huge portion of the bridge, the Russians.
796
00:42:05.969 --> 00:42:09.480
Yeah, so this is General Suravikin, and I don't know
797
00:42:09.500 --> 00:42:11.940
where they come up with these names. I mean, let's
798
00:42:12.019 --> 00:42:14.219
go get another James Bond movie going, I guess.
799
00:42:14.489 --> 00:42:15.070
Armageddon.
800
00:42:15.210 --> 00:42:18.250
Yeah, exactly. And it sounds like a perfect, you know,
801
00:42:18.289 --> 00:42:20.050
James Bond or Tom Cruise movie.
802
00:42:20.940 --> 00:42:25.519
So Serebikin was the original warfighting commander when this war started,
803
00:42:26.260 --> 00:42:31.539
and he was pulled back because he got into a
804
00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:33.679
fracas where he didn't know what to do about the
805
00:42:33.719 --> 00:42:38.809
Wagner Group and Prigozhin, and that Prigozhin could have been
806
00:42:38.849 --> 00:42:42.489
a threat to the Kremlin, kind of got him fired. Well,
807
00:42:42.530 --> 00:42:45.530
they resurrected him, and I think that the ultimatum in
808
00:42:45.590 --> 00:42:48.349
his world is you're going to now go do what
809
00:42:48.389 --> 00:42:51.809
it takes to finish this war off. And I imagine
810
00:42:51.869 --> 00:42:54.590
from what we just saw in those attacks on infrastructure
811
00:42:54.639 --> 00:42:57.900
in and around Kiev that we're probably looking at the
812
00:42:57.940 --> 00:42:58.739
gloves coming off.
813
00:42:59.639 --> 00:43:00.440
What does that mean?
814
00:43:01.659 --> 00:43:04.699
Well, it means that the Russians the entire time have
815
00:43:05.369 --> 00:43:09.030
been restrained in using some of their advanced weaponry. And
816
00:43:09.070 --> 00:43:11.150
I don't mean nuclear weapons. And I don't think that
817
00:43:11.210 --> 00:43:14.889
Putin or Sorovikin or Medvedev are going to advocate for that.
818
00:43:15.860 --> 00:43:19.179
But they are sitting on hypersonics weapons that they have
819
00:43:19.360 --> 00:43:23.170
used what I would call judiciously or sparingly. That could
820
00:43:23.190 --> 00:43:25.170
all change if they're going to want to close the
821
00:43:25.210 --> 00:43:28.369
war down on military terms of their own, take Odessa,
822
00:43:28.409 --> 00:43:31.869
take Kiev, and call it a done deal and just
823
00:43:32.110 --> 00:43:35.639
exhibit terms. So we're at a very dangerous inflection point.
824
00:43:36.099 --> 00:43:38.719
Do we escalate or do we try to double down
825
00:43:38.800 --> 00:43:42.889
on getting a diplomatic end to this thing. Um, you know,
826
00:43:43.070 --> 00:43:45.849
maybe it's so that the medical crisis in Russia causes
827
00:43:45.909 --> 00:43:49.139
us to work together. Uh, and we start to see
828
00:43:49.239 --> 00:43:50.699
something going in a, in.
829
00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:51.619
An opposite direction.
830
00:43:51.639 --> 00:43:54.670
Uh, I will, I will tell you though, that, um,
831
00:43:55.630 --> 00:43:58.239
And for those people who are at home going, oh,
832
00:43:58.250 --> 00:44:00.809
if we could just assassinate Putin, all our troubles would
833
00:44:00.849 --> 00:44:01.289
go away.
834
00:44:01.650 --> 00:44:02.829
Well, it's guys with.
835
00:44:02.730 --> 00:44:08.440
Nicknames like Armageddon and Nuclear Medvedev and all of that
836
00:44:08.800 --> 00:44:11.360
that you'll get as one of the replacements. And so
837
00:44:12.179 --> 00:44:13.460
better work with the devil you got.
838
00:44:14.340 --> 00:44:14.599
Wow.
839
00:44:15.139 --> 00:44:18.070
You're right. Devil is a good word to describe. That
840
00:44:18.130 --> 00:44:22.309
is for sure. General Blainholt, we love you. Thank you
841
00:44:22.389 --> 00:44:24.380
so much. It's always so great to have you here
842
00:44:24.429 --> 00:44:26.760
and you always have some good insights. Thank you.
843
00:44:26.780 --> 00:44:28.699
Always my pleasure.
844
00:44:28.980 --> 00:44:29.820
Keep your eyes open.
845
00:44:30.610 --> 00:44:33.349
And you guys, now we're going to go to Bill O'Reilly,
846
00:44:33.929 --> 00:44:36.159
who was with the president. You were too, John. Here
847
00:44:36.179 --> 00:44:45.840
we go. And joining us now is Bill O'Reilly. And
848
00:44:45.880 --> 00:44:48.000
Bill and I were both heading down to Washington. We
849
00:44:48.039 --> 00:44:51.570
ran into each other in Penn Station. And Bill, it
850
00:44:51.610 --> 00:44:54.429
sounds like you had a blockbuster day, so fill us in.
851
00:44:54.449 --> 00:45:00.030
Yeah, I didn't get the Casamatini's treatment. But, uh, two
852
00:45:00.070 --> 00:45:06.500
down from that. Um, so the president wanted my presence for, uh,
853
00:45:06.539 --> 00:45:10.159
you know, it doesn't tell you in advance. So, uh,
854
00:45:10.429 --> 00:45:13.289
you know, I'm from Levittown. I'm an American. What am
855
00:45:13.329 --> 00:45:16.469
I going to do? So I went down and, uh,
856
00:45:16.590 --> 00:45:17.989
it's always a privilege, right?
857
00:45:18.809 --> 00:45:19.050
Always.
858
00:45:19.070 --> 00:45:21.760
To go to the, uh, the white house. Doesn't matter
859
00:45:21.780 --> 00:45:22.639
who's there to me.
860
00:45:22.659 --> 00:45:23.280
Yep.
861
00:45:23.780 --> 00:45:26.630
Um, And it was a meeting with me and the
862
00:45:26.690 --> 00:45:32.329
president and Secretary of State Rubio, primarily about Iran. And
863
00:45:32.349 --> 00:45:35.179
I think the president, after I know him so long,
864
00:45:35.980 --> 00:45:39.099
sometimes he wants to get a contrarian point of view
865
00:45:39.239 --> 00:45:43.519
on things because he's an intimidating guy and people work
866
00:45:43.539 --> 00:45:46.960
for him. They're not going to, you know, sorry, you're wrong, Mr. President,
867
00:45:47.260 --> 00:45:50.349
which I don't do either. You know, people might be
868
00:45:50.389 --> 00:45:53.750
surprised to hear that because... You know, I'll disagree with
869
00:45:53.789 --> 00:45:56.150
the general. You said if I could put a bullet
870
00:45:56.199 --> 00:45:58.300
in Putin's head, I certainly would do that today.
871
00:45:58.780 --> 00:45:59.219
Me, too.
872
00:45:59.500 --> 00:46:01.639
I mean, I take him right off the planet, the planet.
873
00:46:01.659 --> 00:46:03.719
You know how many women and children a man's killing?
874
00:46:04.019 --> 00:46:04.219
Right.
875
00:46:04.599 --> 00:46:05.199
No question.
876
00:46:05.860 --> 00:46:08.739
You know, he goes, I'm sorry, I'll deal with any
877
00:46:08.780 --> 00:46:13.730
devil you line up. But this guy, no. But anyway,
878
00:46:13.789 --> 00:46:17.550
back to the White House. So I can't quote or unquote.
879
00:46:17.590 --> 00:46:21.780
That's not fair to do. But when we were talking
880
00:46:21.820 --> 00:46:25.989
about Iran, I said, look, this is not just about
881
00:46:26.010 --> 00:46:33.389
high gas prices and people's anger toward the consumer situation.
882
00:46:33.409 --> 00:46:41.289
It's about your legacy. And these guys are hell-bent to
883
00:46:41.329 --> 00:46:45.280
destroy parts of the world. And you have to stop them.
884
00:46:45.360 --> 00:46:49.619
You know that. And just yesterday... one of their idiot
885
00:46:51.139 --> 00:46:54.260
parliamentary members came out and said, we're withdrawing from the
886
00:46:54.719 --> 00:46:59.639
United Nations nuclear treaty, like they ever upheld it, right? Right.
887
00:47:00.219 --> 00:47:05.969
It wasn't reported at all, because the corrupt media won't
888
00:47:06.769 --> 00:47:12.329
report anything that would possibly help the Republicans in the midterms.
889
00:47:12.369 --> 00:47:18.320
They just won't report it, which to me is really stunning. Anyway,
890
00:47:19.820 --> 00:47:24.480
so my take was, look, I don't get the intel
891
00:47:24.539 --> 00:47:27.780
stuff every morning like you do, you two guys do,
892
00:47:27.800 --> 00:47:31.809
because Rubio is there. I don't know what your options are.
893
00:47:32.949 --> 00:47:38.750
But if it were me and I had the okay
894
00:47:38.789 --> 00:47:43.409
of the Pentagon, I'd take out their airport first, just
895
00:47:43.469 --> 00:47:47.269
level their airport so nobody can land there. Then I
896
00:47:47.309 --> 00:47:52.429
go to any train situation, take that right out. And
897
00:47:52.469 --> 00:47:59.860
then any truck depots that my truck supplies, they go.
898
00:48:01.079 --> 00:48:03.380
And I said, you know, you got them now in
899
00:48:03.400 --> 00:48:08.219
a bad position, the Iranians. But you got to, it's
900
00:48:08.260 --> 00:48:11.099
going to take one more, one more real stern decision.
901
00:48:13.960 --> 00:48:18.019
action and that was pretty much what my point was you.
902
00:48:17.940 --> 00:48:21.079
Know it's interesting what you're saying and obviously i agree
903
00:48:21.400 --> 00:48:24.320
bill because clearly i think it's going to take more
904
00:48:24.340 --> 00:48:28.000
um did you get a sense on if it's coming
905
00:48:28.019 --> 00:48:30.420
because what's interesting and this is what he said publicly
906
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:34.039
um he has said that he believes it will be
907
00:48:34.139 --> 00:48:36.820
over with soon after the midterms he keeps saying that
908
00:48:36.880 --> 00:48:39.429
did is there any sort of insight as to why
909
00:48:39.570 --> 00:48:42.349
he's saying that timing No.
910
00:48:42.429 --> 00:48:46.070
I didn't get that. But I don't quiz him unless
911
00:48:46.110 --> 00:48:49.510
I'm interviewing him. You know, it's a Q & A
912
00:48:49.610 --> 00:48:54.860
where 35-year-old friends are sitting around and he's asking me
913
00:48:54.960 --> 00:49:00.139
and I give my honest opinion with no shade on it.
914
00:49:01.199 --> 00:49:03.650
And then he takes it or he leaves it. But
915
00:49:03.989 --> 00:49:09.409
that's too late because what's driving this midterm vote is
916
00:49:09.860 --> 00:49:13.530
And we're about to enter, as Huckabee said earlier on
917
00:49:13.550 --> 00:49:20.340
the program, we're entering a disastrous situation. if the Democratic
918
00:49:20.389 --> 00:49:23.920
Party takes both houses. It's going to be an economic
919
00:49:23.980 --> 00:49:24.820
disaster here.
920
00:49:25.199 --> 00:49:25.440
Yes.
921
00:49:26.340 --> 00:49:31.420
Because those people, they're going to raise taxes. Everybody knows it.
922
00:49:32.199 --> 00:49:37.239
They don't even deny it anymore. Affordability, affordability. Well, what
923
00:49:37.260 --> 00:49:39.739
do you mean affordability? You're going to take more money
924
00:49:39.820 --> 00:49:43.199
away from the working Americans. You're going to just take
925
00:49:43.619 --> 00:49:47.300
more money. That's affordable. You've been to California lately. Is
926
00:49:47.320 --> 00:49:50.980
there anything affordable in California? It's run by Democrats top
927
00:49:51.019 --> 00:49:56.380
to bottom. Even New York is a disaster economically for
928
00:49:56.400 --> 00:49:59.039
the working people. And I'm one of the working people.
929
00:49:59.119 --> 00:50:00.969
I'm from Levittown. You guys know that.
930
00:50:01.050 --> 00:50:01.219
Yep.
931
00:50:02.179 --> 00:50:05.860
I said, you know, and if you get a situation
932
00:50:05.940 --> 00:50:09.559
where you got these mullers on the run, that's going
933
00:50:09.579 --> 00:50:13.059
to spike gas prices down almost immediately.
934
00:50:13.059 --> 00:50:15.659
$ 20 a barrel, straight down.
935
00:50:16.719 --> 00:50:19.389
Yeah, and then the president can put pressure on these
936
00:50:19.489 --> 00:50:23.650
greedy oil companies. You know, and they are greedy. Anybody
937
00:50:23.670 --> 00:50:25.909
doesn't think they are living in the land of Oz.
938
00:50:26.329 --> 00:50:31.420
They should be. Well, in North America, Brett, Should not
939
00:50:31.480 --> 00:50:34.679
be $ 90, $ 100 a barrel. Should not be. There are
940
00:50:34.840 --> 00:50:35.940
zero shortages.
941
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:41.409
And the oil companies are basically, oh, it's always an excuse.
942
00:50:41.510 --> 00:50:47.250
It's a refining excuse. It's this. It's transportation. All right, look, enough.
943
00:50:47.929 --> 00:50:53.030
You know, maybe you take 150% profit, not 300% for
944
00:50:53.050 --> 00:50:56.820
the quarter. Okay, is that too much to ask you for?
945
00:50:56.840 --> 00:51:00.260
And I'd absolutely name names. I just, you know, stack
946
00:51:00.280 --> 00:51:04.329
them up. But, you know, look, the president of the
947
00:51:04.409 --> 00:51:08.380
United States has a lot of things that we don't know.
948
00:51:08.389 --> 00:51:12.619
And I always take that into consideration when I'm talking
949
00:51:12.639 --> 00:51:15.679
to any president. I've been lucky enough to talk to
950
00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:21.219
five of them. But now, I don't see any other
951
00:51:21.280 --> 00:51:26.619
way but hitting these guys hard. And I mean hard. Infrastructure,
952
00:51:26.659 --> 00:51:30.210
just level it. And I feel sorry for the Persian people,
953
00:51:30.289 --> 00:51:33.559
but There's nothing else the world can do. Now you're
954
00:51:33.599 --> 00:51:37.840
withdrawn from the UN. It's a joke. I know it's
955
00:51:37.889 --> 00:51:41.489
a joke. They never would be upholding any of those
956
00:51:41.530 --> 00:51:46.949
tenets anyway. But you have the nerve to do this? Oh, man.
957
00:51:47.409 --> 00:51:47.690
It is.
958
00:51:48.110 --> 00:51:48.409
It is.
959
00:51:48.530 --> 00:51:53.559
It's shocking. You know, so... Bill, did you, I guess,
960
00:51:53.760 --> 00:51:56.460
is there a sense that something else may be coming soon?
961
00:51:56.480 --> 00:52:00.760
And also on gas prices, you bring up oil and
962
00:52:00.780 --> 00:52:04.940
gas prices. Is there anything that some action that could,
963
00:52:05.079 --> 00:52:07.489
because the bottom line is, and I was just watching
964
00:52:07.590 --> 00:52:10.670
El Sayed on Fox a little bit ago, everything is
965
00:52:10.710 --> 00:52:15.349
gas prices, affordability. Is there anything that you feel you
966
00:52:15.389 --> 00:52:18.369
heard or that you suggested in addition to what we
967
00:52:18.389 --> 00:52:22.260
were just talking about? to bring down gas prices, oil prices,
968
00:52:22.920 --> 00:52:24.239
because it is four weeks now.
969
00:52:25.860 --> 00:52:28.300
Well, I didn't talk to him about that. I talked
970
00:52:28.320 --> 00:52:32.300
to him about Iran and AISI, whatever it is. My
971
00:52:32.400 --> 00:52:34.880
opening line, I really, you would have appreciated this, is
972
00:52:34.960 --> 00:52:39.619
I walk into the Oval Office and there's the president,
973
00:52:39.639 --> 00:52:43.570
there's Rubio, and I go, super intelligence has arrived.
974
00:52:46.050 --> 00:52:47.250
I bet they love that one.
975
00:52:48.809 --> 00:52:52.710
Rubio got it, not Trump. Yeah, isn't that a great
976
00:52:52.750 --> 00:52:54.469
name change?
977
00:52:55.130 --> 00:52:55.710
That's great.
978
00:52:56.010 --> 00:52:59.130
But I figured I'd go in with a little, you know, okay.
979
00:53:00.829 --> 00:53:06.730
So I didn't talk economics with them because Rubio is
980
00:53:06.849 --> 00:53:10.829
obviously his foreign affairs thing. And I knew that the president,
981
00:53:11.659 --> 00:53:15.719
wanted to get my take on Iran. But, you know,
982
00:53:15.739 --> 00:53:18.719
you have a situation now where, and with all due
983
00:53:18.760 --> 00:53:21.760
respect to Fox, it's the 30th anniversary. I was there
984
00:53:21.780 --> 00:53:24.710
for more than 20 years, with all due respect. You're
985
00:53:24.730 --> 00:53:28.110
going to bring a propagandist in like Al-Said. You've got
986
00:53:28.130 --> 00:53:30.829
to level him. I'm sorry.
987
00:53:30.989 --> 00:53:34.449
Bill, I agree. You know, I would have loved three
988
00:53:34.489 --> 00:53:38.230
minutes with him, you know? And it needs to be,
989
00:53:38.309 --> 00:53:39.570
you know, yes or no.
990
00:53:40.650 --> 00:53:44.940
And the audience, you know, Rita's good at this. I'm
991
00:53:44.980 --> 00:53:47.460
not so good at it because I probably have a pan.
992
00:53:47.519 --> 00:53:48.500
I hit him on the head.
993
00:53:49.940 --> 00:53:51.400
I probably want to borrow that pan.
994
00:53:51.539 --> 00:53:56.300
You've got to come in and you've got to say, hey, look, enough.
995
00:53:56.980 --> 00:54:00.659
All right? And when he starts to dodge, like, do
996
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:03.230
you support the action or I wouldn't answer the question,
997
00:54:03.730 --> 00:54:07.110
then you've got to say to the audience, With all
998
00:54:07.150 --> 00:54:12.110
due respect, Mr. Saeed is not answering the question. You
999
00:54:12.179 --> 00:54:15.900
have to hold these people accountable. So I'm going to
1000
00:54:15.920 --> 00:54:17.579
give you a heads up on a couple of things
1001
00:54:17.599 --> 00:54:20.460
that you guys might want to discuss later on in
1002
00:54:20.500 --> 00:54:25.340
the week. I'm going to debate Geraldo Rivera on the election,
1003
00:54:25.420 --> 00:54:27.559
on the midterms, because he's taken a lot of shots
1004
00:54:27.659 --> 00:54:30.539
at Trump. And he's known Trump longer than I have,
1005
00:54:30.559 --> 00:54:32.940
which is about the same. And we're going to have
1006
00:54:32.980 --> 00:54:36.909
a debate, a one-on-one debate, And you remember the last
1007
00:54:36.969 --> 00:54:37.960
time we debated.
1008
00:54:37.980 --> 00:54:40.139
I was going to say, I can't wait to watch that.
1009
00:54:41.099 --> 00:54:44.659
This might be even worse. Oh, no. I'm going to
1010
00:54:44.699 --> 00:54:48.289
go to Geraldo. What the deuce are you doing? What
1011
00:54:48.349 --> 00:54:51.429
are you promoting? What do you want? Is this what
1012
00:54:51.469 --> 00:54:55.030
you want? I don't care about Paxson. I wouldn't vote
1013
00:54:55.050 --> 00:55:02.469
for Paxson no matter what. But up against Tallarico? I mean,
1014
00:55:02.550 --> 00:55:04.369
I'd have to mail it in because I'd be too
1015
00:55:04.530 --> 00:55:09.760
angry to go to the polling place. It's ridiculous. It
1016
00:55:09.860 --> 00:55:15.460
is absurd that so many Americans are so naive, so lazy,
1017
00:55:16.059 --> 00:55:20.289
that they won't see what is right in front of them.
1018
00:55:21.789 --> 00:55:25.030
You're going to get it. You are going to get
1019
00:55:25.050 --> 00:55:26.489
it between the eyes.
1020
00:55:26.809 --> 00:55:29.469
And they're telegraphing it, too. I mean, that's the thing,
1021
00:55:29.489 --> 00:55:30.030
you know.
1022
00:55:30.289 --> 00:55:31.949
Oh, the arrogance is unbelievable.
1023
00:55:32.050 --> 00:55:34.159
I mean, just like to the al-Sayed, he did not
1024
00:55:34.199 --> 00:55:38.739
denounce Sharia. He didn't drown Hamas. He didn't think there's
1025
00:55:38.800 --> 00:55:43.340
any merit, you know, going into Iran. But that's what
1026
00:55:43.380 --> 00:55:46.380
I'm saying, Bill. This is what's ahead. So you're right.
1027
00:55:46.400 --> 00:55:47.860
The stakes are high.
1028
00:55:48.829 --> 00:55:54.340
It's not enough to ask the question. It is not enough.
1029
00:55:55.260 --> 00:55:58.380
If there is danger to the republic, and believe me,
1030
00:55:58.420 --> 00:56:05.070
this Democratic Party, led by Schumer, is a dangerous operation
1031
00:56:06.110 --> 00:56:12.130
unless you believe that socialism is good, unless you have
1032
00:56:12.230 --> 00:56:17.719
confidence that the government can pick out your doctor and
1033
00:56:17.780 --> 00:56:20.559
tell you where to go, and you're willing to wait
1034
00:56:20.739 --> 00:56:25.260
four months to get an appointment. Okay?
1035
00:56:25.820 --> 00:56:26.519
Absolutely.
1036
00:56:26.539 --> 00:56:28.590
Now, if you believe that, go vote for them. Right.
1037
00:56:28.670 --> 00:56:29.090
You're right.
1038
00:56:29.150 --> 00:56:32.929
You're right. The stakes are so incredibly high, and people
1039
00:56:32.969 --> 00:56:36.449
need to wake up because these people are telegraphing what
1040
00:56:36.489 --> 00:56:39.409
they plan to do. It's not a mystery, sadly, Bill,
1041
00:56:39.969 --> 00:56:41.039
and they better wake up.
1042
00:56:41.110 --> 00:56:44.099
Oh, and it extends— It extends to New York.
1043
00:56:44.239 --> 00:56:46.139
Yep, it sure does. Hey, Bill, we have to go
1044
00:56:46.159 --> 00:56:48.539
because we've got a hard break. But we've got to
1045
00:56:48.559 --> 00:56:51.059
get you back on again. Maybe even later this week.
1046
00:56:51.079 --> 00:56:52.780
We'd love to have you back on, Bill, because this
1047
00:56:52.820 --> 00:56:55.619
is important. When are you doing your debate?
1048
00:56:55.719 --> 00:56:59.670
BillRiley.com is the place to go for the Geraldo shootout.
1049
00:56:59.769 --> 00:57:00.789
Yeah, when are you doing that?
1050
00:57:00.989 --> 00:57:03.269
It's on Thursday. Oh, okay.
1051
00:57:03.289 --> 00:57:04.789
So maybe we can have you at the end of
1052
00:57:04.809 --> 00:57:06.190
the week post-shootout.
1053
00:57:07.940 --> 00:57:10.199
All right, Rita. Anything for you. You know that.
1054
00:57:10.340 --> 00:57:11.780
Thank you. I love you, Bill. And it was great
1055
00:57:11.840 --> 00:57:15.050
seeing you, too. Thank you, Bill. Thank you. Thank you.
1056
00:57:15.070 --> 00:57:16.670
And you guys, we have a break. And we're going
1057
00:57:16.769 --> 00:57:19.530
to go talk about Spain. Some big stuff overseas right
1058
00:57:19.550 --> 00:57:19.889
after the break.
1059
00:57:19.909 --> 00:57:21.170
We're going to talk about all of Europe. There's a
1060
00:57:21.210 --> 00:57:23.710
lot of things going on in Europe. And Jose Santamaria
1061
00:57:23.730 --> 00:57:24.809
is going to be reporting on it.
1062
00:57:28.300 --> 00:57:32.000
It's a common sense recap of the big stories. It's
1063
00:57:32.199 --> 00:57:34.119
Katz and Cosby on 77 WABC.
1064
00:57:37.090 --> 00:57:39.809
Well, we are back and we got some more breaking news.
1065
00:57:40.369 --> 00:57:44.010
And with us today is Jose Santamaria. And Jose has
1066
00:57:44.050 --> 00:57:48.010
become our correspondent. Looks like knowing what's going on in
1067
00:57:48.130 --> 00:57:51.070
Europe because the American people don't get that news all
1068
00:57:51.090 --> 00:57:55.500
the time on any other station. Well, Jose Santamaria, fill
1069
00:57:55.539 --> 00:57:57.960
us in. What the heck is going on in Spain
1070
00:57:58.000 --> 00:58:00.880
and France and in Germany? You tell us.
1071
00:58:02.519 --> 00:58:05.800
Well, it's important to be very well informed because what
1072
00:58:05.900 --> 00:58:11.329
happens in Europe eventually comes to the US. What you
1073
00:58:11.389 --> 00:58:15.050
saw in France is the result of an evil alliance
1074
00:58:15.130 --> 00:58:20.230
between the European left and radical Islam, created over decades
1075
00:58:20.309 --> 00:58:26.320
of indoctrination in classrooms and mosques. You see urban guerrilla
1076
00:58:26.400 --> 00:58:33.110
warfare waged by hooded youths who indoctrinated in cultural Marxism
1077
00:58:33.139 --> 00:58:37.760
by burning their own schools, which is the very first
1078
00:58:37.860 --> 00:58:41.360
claim they had to get better, to get more teachers
1079
00:58:41.639 --> 00:58:46.480
and more opportunity. So that is something that is happening
1080
00:58:46.599 --> 00:58:50.440
in France, and I am concerned it might spread into
1081
00:58:50.480 --> 00:58:55.670
the U.S. Meanwhile, in Spain, a development has been has happened,
1082
00:58:55.690 --> 00:58:59.980
which is very interesting. The prime minister, surrounded by corruption,
1083
00:59:00.000 --> 00:59:04.400
had to call into a snap election finally after trying
1084
00:59:04.460 --> 00:59:10.579
to pass two very last-minute housing decrees, which made no
1085
00:59:10.639 --> 00:59:13.860
sense to anyone in Congress. So there's going to be
1086
00:59:13.900 --> 00:59:17.940
elections in Spain, but the issues that you see in
1087
00:59:18.000 --> 00:59:23.230
France actually have spread into Spain as well with radical left,
1088
00:59:23.329 --> 00:59:26.769
with immigration out of control, and that's what you're seeing
1089
00:59:26.829 --> 00:59:27.670
overall in Europe.
1090
00:59:28.659 --> 00:59:31.659
You know, your message is so powerful, Jose. We love
1091
00:59:31.679 --> 00:59:35.440
having you on. And hear what you're saying, that this
1092
00:59:35.539 --> 00:59:38.619
is something that we better wake up to, and especially
1093
00:59:38.920 --> 00:59:41.500
if we ever have a different Congress or if we
1094
00:59:41.519 --> 00:59:42.920
have a different president, right?
1095
00:59:45.260 --> 00:59:48.480
That is really what I'd like the American public to understand,
1096
00:59:48.519 --> 00:59:53.300
is that in Europe, we made lots of mistakes. We
1097
00:59:53.480 --> 00:59:58.599
did not understand the threat And as you know, recently
1098
00:59:58.619 --> 01:00:02.469
we even had Prime Minister Sanchez coming to the U.S.,
1099
01:00:02.489 --> 01:00:03.579
to the United.
1100
01:00:03.179 --> 01:00:06.909
Nations General Assembly. I don't know what he was doing here,
1101
01:00:07.010 --> 01:00:11.650
but he connected with socialists in the U.S. And look,
1102
01:00:11.909 --> 01:00:15.389
you see the track record in Europe. It might very
1103
01:00:15.429 --> 01:00:16.849
well spread into the U.S.
1104
01:00:17.329 --> 01:00:18.170
Very easily.
1105
01:00:18.969 --> 01:00:21.489
Tell us about also what could happen, and we just
1106
01:00:21.510 --> 01:00:24.050
have about a minute or so, Jose, but with the election.
1107
01:00:24.599 --> 01:00:25.179
In November.
1108
01:00:25.219 --> 01:00:28.320
What does that mean for socialism? What does it mean
1109
01:00:28.360 --> 01:00:29.130
for the government?
1110
01:00:30.769 --> 01:00:35.070
Well, I think it's obvious that the Spanish prime minister
1111
01:00:35.230 --> 01:00:39.329
has lost all the support, but he will leave government
1112
01:00:39.809 --> 01:00:45.389
leaving behind a mess. And the mess will be basically
1113
01:00:45.409 --> 01:00:48.730
because he's trying to pass two decrees which were rejected
1114
01:00:48.769 --> 01:00:53.860
in Congress, which will give which will change completely the
1115
01:00:53.940 --> 01:00:58.539
way the real estate market works in Spain, your rights
1116
01:00:58.619 --> 01:01:02.300
to private property, your right to operate and run your
1117
01:01:02.380 --> 01:01:05.750
apartments or condominiums or whatever it is that you own.
1118
01:01:06.250 --> 01:01:12.630
It's giving rights which are not constitutional to tenants and immigrants,
1119
01:01:12.789 --> 01:01:16.590
and that's way, way too much to the left. That's
1120
01:01:16.769 --> 01:01:20.409
really what triggered all these demonstrations. I fear that might
1121
01:01:20.449 --> 01:01:24.769
come to the U.S., Trump is right 100%. I cannot
1122
01:01:25.090 --> 01:01:29.349
emphasize more, especially the Latinos that have come to this country.
1123
01:01:29.969 --> 01:01:33.139
We know when things get bad in our home countries,
1124
01:01:33.760 --> 01:01:35.219
they get really bad.
1125
01:01:35.460 --> 01:01:38.900
Absolutely. We've got to wake up. We've got to wake up.
1126
01:01:38.980 --> 01:01:41.480
You're right. Jose, sorry because we have a heartbreak here,
1127
01:01:41.519 --> 01:01:45.289
but we love having you on and keep us posted.
1128
01:01:45.650 --> 01:01:48.570
Keep your eyes open, Jose. We need more information, and
1129
01:01:48.630 --> 01:01:51.250
we'll talk to you again maybe tomorrow or the next day.
1130
01:01:53.170 --> 01:01:53.670
With pleasure.
1131
01:01:53.929 --> 01:01:54.590
Thank you so much.
1132
01:01:54.670 --> 01:01:56.429
Thank you very much. And you guys, what do we
1133
01:01:56.469 --> 01:01:57.190
all stand for?
1134
01:01:57.210 --> 01:02:00.880
Truth, justice, and American way. God bless America.
