Speaker 1 (00:02):
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray
for our enemies because we're going to medieval on these people.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
There's not got a free shot.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
All these networks lying about the people, the people have
had a belly full of it.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I know you don't like hearing that. I know you
tried to do everything in the world to stop that,
but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
And where do people like that go to share the
big line? Mega media?
Speaker 1 (00:29):
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of
these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my
task and what is my purpose? If that answer is
to save my country, this country will be saved.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Worry you use your host Stephen k Maas.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
It's Thursday, twenty sixth June, in the year of our Lord,
twenty twenty five. Okay, after I having that big you know,
oh it's over. We're getting out of the Middle East.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
You know no more.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Because sencom these centrifical the three most powerful institutions in
this city, and I'm even including Justice in Supreme Court
because they're very powerful.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
But then they're not quite at the top.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
The three most powerful are the CIA, the Federal Reserve,
and Sencom. Sencom has a gravitational pull that even Obama
couldn't pivot away. We even President Trump, who did an
amazing job in the first term, very tough, and right
now they got it. Even as we were speaking, and
I'm saying, hey, it's over, President Trump. It's total obliteration done.
(01:41):
He's even going to let the muddles get some cash.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
He's moving on.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
He's sending out true socialist forms. Even as it just
comes across breaking news. US intelligence believes Pakistan is developing
a nuclear armed ICBM capable of reaching the United States.
This is Pakistan. The President Trump just had this chief
(02:06):
of Staff of the Army and nominated President Trump for
the Nobel Prize. Right officially nominated for the Nobel Prize.
Here's my point. Pakistan has had I don't know one
hundred and eighty one nuclear weapons. He had doctor Khan
who and actually spread it, I think to North Korea,
and these guys people said this is how people in
the Middle East have gotten nuclear weapons, etc. That's not
(02:28):
the point of this. The point of this. This is
another mcguffin. And I'm not saying they can't develop ICBMs.
Why does it come why is it released on the
very day Trump said, Hey, the war is over, and
We're not going to fight a war in Iran.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
We're done. We're done.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
This is the deep state, this is the arms manufacturers,
this is the madness that drives this town. And if
we don't break it, and we don't break it now,
we don't break it now, it's never gonna stop. And
it shouldn't be lost in you Netnyaho has always said,
and we'll pull up the cliffs this afternoon after Iran.
You know, Pakistan is going to be a problem. Pakistan
(03:12):
is going to be a problem. It's insanity and they
will not stop until we force it to stop.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
And forcing it to stop is one is we have
to have.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
In complete and total clarity about what is in the vital,
vital national security interests of the United States. Of course,
there's many things that may touch the national security of
the United States, but the vital national security interests of
the United States, like the southern border and repelling this invasion.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
This is why we.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Argue for years. Fox remember kiev Levin, he was Kiev
Levin at that time. Zelensky's Churchill Lenski's Churchill. Remember a
fox or lunch church had all their little Ukrainian flags
and they push that. Remember the same crowd pushing the
around war, pushing, pushing Zelensky. He was a Churchill, He's Churchill.
I couldn't think of a guy farther from Churchill than Zelensky. Okay,
(04:09):
they're pushing, They're pushing that NonStop. Why they want another
forever war? They want another forever war. They're dead wrong
in that. And we kept saying the Eastern Russian speaking
border of two Slavic entities is not about the vital
national security interests of the United States. The southern border
(04:32):
of the United States, which now has millions of illegal
alien invaders coming through, that's the vital national security interest.
But then then they are promoted Langford. Oh well, we
got to have like a bill. It's going to take
twenty years to do it, and you get two million
illegal aliens a year before anything kicks in. That's neoliberal
neocon Okay. And what has President Trump done the hemispheric
(04:54):
defense from Greenland to the Panama Canal in the Central
Pacific and the Three Islands. Okay, from the Arctic to
the Panama Canal and including the Monroe Doctrine, because Latin
America or South America falls in there with our allies
Argentina and are soon to be ally again once Lula's
turfed out of Brazil, of which we're getting turfed out
of Brazil eventually. So Captain Fanel talk about the brilliants
(05:19):
of our the giants whose shoulders we stand on.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
These guys.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
It's not like even President Trump has now reclaimed this
is part of his you know, you got Washington at
the birth of the nation, General Washington, Lincoln at the
rebirth of the nation, and Trump of the reclamation, the
reclaiming of our greatness, and he talks about McKinley and
tariffs all the time. It's min it's the giants of
the nineteenth century post Civil War that manifest that saw
(05:44):
the global They saw the continental power of the United
States to be a force for good.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And you know where they looked.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
They didn't look to the Middle East, they did not
look to Europe, they did not look to Sub Saharan Africa.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
They looked west to the vast Pacific.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
The vast Pacific is mckinder's what Eurasia is to Mackinder,
the Heartland and whoever controls that will control Eurasia. The
Central Pacific is bigger than that. When you look at
the Pacific, it takes up half the globe. It's the
reason that Jack Pacobic and Captain Fanel and Lieutenant Stephen K.
(06:26):
Bannon were Seventh Fleet sailors because the core thrust of
the Navy has always been in the Pacific. Captain Fanew,
the floor is yours. Why is hemispheric defense so brilliant?
Why does that put us right in front of the
Chinese Companies Party? And they understand that the Chinese Commis
Party are brillant strategically, they get it. That's why they're
in the Caribbean. That's why they own the Panama Canal
(06:47):
that we're taken back. That's why they have carriers going
east of the Second Island Chain.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Sir Well, Steve, I think what you've described in terms
of our focus as a nation on the Central Command,
a war is.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Something that it's a fact, and we have.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Been pouring precious resources into a lopsided defense department.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Yes, the Navy has ships. Yes, the Navy still has carriers.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
I know somebody was on last week that said we
put all our eggs in the carrier basket. But the
fact of the matter is, as a nation, we have
decimated the size of our navy from six hundred ships
in nineteen eighty six until under three hundred today, while
we've continued to grow and build the army and the marines,
but mainly the army, and this obsessive focus on ground war,
(07:38):
whether it's in the Middle East or Ukraine. Now, who
knows what they're going to do with this Pakistan report.
Let us not forget that India is a nation of
over a billion people and is very concerned about Pakistan.
So I think we can have our friends in Delhi
in the Indian military look after Pakistan's programs.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
We don't have to lurch over there.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
It seems like there is this obsessive pattern of trying
to continually get us bogged down into this land warfare
business and forgetting our responsibilities for maritime issues. And as
you said, the Pacific Ocean is massive. The Pacific Ocean
is twenty times the size of continental United States. I
(08:20):
say that again, twenty times the size. Okay, it's huge,
it's massive, and China has been expanding into it for
the last quarter of the century. While we have been
sitting by and doing nothing. You have Cleo pascalon frequently
to tell us how the Chinese are making inroads into Oceania,
the South Pacific Islands, the Central Pacific island chains, where
(08:42):
they're advancing their diplomatic and economic interest there and pushing
us out. They're building the military, they're building the economic strength.
And you talked about the grapes of the twentieth century. Well,
we had before World War Two, we had great men
for both parties and women, but mostly men that said, look, Japan's.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Growing, we need to do something.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
And they said that in the late thirties, and by
nineteen forty we passed the Two Ocean Navy Ship Act,
which essentially built the navy that defeated the Imperial Japanese Navy.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
It took three years.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
For that navy to come online, from the first time
that those resources were passed by Congress until they showed
up in the Pacific for admiral limits to use. Three
years when we had an industrial base that could deal
with that money and produce those ships. We don't have
that industrial base today, so we're in a very dire
situation when it comes to the maritime domain, and we
(09:38):
need to get off and we need to stop this
idea that each service gets a coequal share because if
we continue down that line, we will never be able
to restore the power of the US Navy and our
maritime domain. You saw the President in Europe say to
the fins, Hey, you guys made great icebreakers.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
We're going to buy some from you.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Can you imagine a president United States having to say
that fifty eighty one hundred years ago that we're going
to buy ships ice breakers from Finland. Well, today we
have to because it's a reality of where we're at.
And I know President Trump's going to do everything in
his power to restore that. But one of the key
things that he has to do is he has to
take and he needs to get this National Defense Authorization
(10:23):
Act for fiscal year twenty twenty six, the one that's
being worked on right now, that's going to go into
the big beautiful bill, and somebody needs to grab that,
the Secretary of the Navy, and they need to have
a They need to have a knife fight to say
why are we spending all this money on ground warfare equipment?
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Right now?
Speaker 4 (10:41):
The US military has over fifty army brigade combat teams.
Each one of those teams is four to five thousand people,
and when you take into the construction cost and the
duration or the length of service of one of those teams,
it costs four or five times as much as it
does for you US Navy destroyer, which only has three
(11:02):
hundred people. And US Navy destroyers are multi mission platforms.
They can shoot down incoming missiles, they can shoot land
attack cruise missiles. They can do many things, whereas an
Army brigade combat team is designed for one thing, to
put boots on the ground in the Middle East or wherever.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Else we're going to go, like in Ukraine. So we've
got to ask ourselves.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
We have to have a strategist pause right now in
the Defense Department to say, where do we think our
strategic vulnerabilities are? Vis a VI the People's Republic of China,
which is the existential threat.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
They have declared war on us, and they've been gobbling.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Up and taking territory both physically and economically and dramatically,
and they've killed.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
We talk about Iran, we talk about the Persians, and
they talk about one thousand. They got to go back
to nineteen eighty three, the horrific bombing of the marine
barracks in Beirut to get to A thousand. The Chinese
companies party of killing, murdering fifty thousand Americans every year
just with fentanyl. They have a chemical warfare. It's a
chemical warfare attack on the United States. They already did
(12:09):
a biological weapons attack on the pandemic. These people are
not They're playing for keeps. Okay, they're playing for keeps.
They want to become a global hedgemon. And we need
to awaken to that of where the real center of
gravity of this BEA's now. I just want to make
sure when I was a junior officer in KMO C
duty and work for the CNO, when he says knife fights,
(12:30):
this is the type of thing indepentagon they get so brutal.
The the the inter the inter not agency, but the
inner service robvalry and particularly for budget and resource allocation,
is more brutal than we take to the enemy. So
I want to make sure, particularly, I don't want Captain
Marine Banning kicked off the board at West Point. As
(12:52):
she starts, We're gonna have the army on here to
make their counter argument, at which they which they're do
a great job. But we're going to brigin on this
show a streetrategic dialogue and a level of sophistication you're
not going to get anywhere else. Why this audience demands
a captain for now. We got to punch your latest
article about the strategic brilliance of Midway, but how it
(13:13):
informs us today of the decisions we have to make.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Where do people go to get that?
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Yeah, it's entitled the Battle of Midway, the big beautiful
bill and hard Choices.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
It's on American greatness.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
You've got it up and I'd ask people to look
at it.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
It's not then on anti army.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
We need an army, desperately need an army, but we
don't have the navy that we need to face the
threat that is at the knife in our throats right.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Now, Amen, Captain Jim Fanel fantastic two professionals Pasobic and
Captain fan Now really appreciate you, sir, President Trump.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Let me just reiterate this, and he just put up
one true social note.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
But the brilliance of the briefing this morning, the twelve
day war is over. President Trump had total literation with
one of the most sophisticated and successful military operations, by
the way, the most sophisticated imbrion since the Second World War.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
And I would say maybe.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
The bombing of Japan and the bombing of Germany and
D Day would be at the in maybe submarine warfare,
unrestricted submarine warfare, that level of complexity of what he accomplished,
his commander in chief, it's over the Tel Aviv l
of n crowd and all the people that are channing
and being pomp pom's up for a foreign government.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
You understand, it's over. You lost. Okay, you lost, And
without any.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Name calling or throwing you toys out of the PRAM,
understand one that America comes first and American citizens come first.
We're pivoting out of the Middle East as we should
and pivoting now to where we should be focused, the
hemispheric defense of the United States of America.
