11-19-25 - 11am - AI Will Not Feed You

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Right, I'll tell you what. I'm gonna bring that Sami
by and pick you up. We're gonna run out to
the turkey farm and fill that whole thing, all right.
I'm waiting for you. I can see color out of
boulevard from where I'm sitting, so I expect to see that.
In fact, when I see a turn in the corner,

(00:20):
are you coming from the north of the south, because
I want to watch for you. I want to see
that trailer just tip just a little bit, and I
want to hear the tire screech as you come pulling
around the corner, and I want to hear the horn blasting.
And then I'll just tell uh, we'll just step out
of the way and you can just pull right up
here to the side, and we'll just go in and
we'll just buy all the turkeys they have there, and

(00:41):
we'll just put them in the truck and we'll take
exactly right actually, you know, dragging. If I see I
see an eighteen wheeler screeching around the corner, I'm dropping
the headphones. I'm editing rum. So just you just figure
you start playing something because I'm out of here. If

(01:02):
that happens, I've had several. I've had several goobers, quite
a few goobers come up and say hello. So all
you anti goobers out there, you're missing out. You're totally
missing out. So you need to get your butts down here.
You should join KOA. We're at King Supers at Colorado
and Yale will be here till nine o'clock tonight to
help those in need doing during Koa's holiday food drive.

(01:26):
It benefits the Food Bank of the Rockies. You can
donate Turkey's food and we even know we have a
QR code over here. If you don't want to do that,
you just want to donate some cash and it really
goes to them, doesn't go to us. It's presented by
Redbird Farms and their generous donation of four thousand pounds
of chicken breasts and the Colorado GMC dealers. Go visit
your local GMC dealer for the full seer of family

(01:49):
lineup and the Food Bank of the Rockies gave me
a list. Of course, all donations are welcome, welcome, but
the blow items are most needed. These are the most
needed things. All types of beans, canned corn and especially
especially canned corn, and other vegetables, canned fruit, rice, all
types of pasta, pasta, sauce, cereal peanut, butter, tuna, and

(02:10):
whole frozen turkeys. Now we've got we got one box
over here that I'm really happy to say that. Now
I'm gonna judge you guys for this last hour because
I want to fill the rest of this box up.
So get your butts out here and fill up the
rest of that box. And how full do you think
of this? Are we halfway? About half? We're about fifty

(02:31):
fifty percent full? So get busy and yeah, just get
busy and fill the box up for me. That's all
I want you to do, he said, It's pretty simple.
I don't ask much, but that's it. Going through the
headlines last night, there's all this talk about you know,
artificial intelligence, his or a bubble, quantum supremacy and the

(02:54):
fate of civilization, and you know there's his breakfast still
really the most important meal of the day. Well, I
use three or four different artificial intelligence platforms, and I
have figured one thing out. None of them can feed me.
Not a single one of these artificial intelligence platforms can

(03:15):
feed me or do anything to get rid of my hunger. Pangs.
I'm getting a finger, but I'm getting the right finger
from somebody. I'm getting the index finger, not the middle finger.
What's your name? What's your name? What's your name? Yes,

(03:36):
come over here and talk to me a minute, Brownie,
I listened to you all the time. Speak up saying
that again, I said, Brownie, I listened to you all
the time. Thanks Dad, How you been nice? Cat? By

(03:56):
the way, I need one of those. Yeah, you look
at you. Look you look very dapper today. You should
be teeing off. That's right. So, so back to all
the AI stuff. Here's the thing, here's the thing I
figured out about them. It will not feed me, Shannon,
won't even feed Nobody out here will feed me. AI

(04:18):
quantum supremacy accomplishing all of that still will not feed us.
Empires rise on our stomachs as much as we obviously
rise on silicon. We need silicon too. But our food
system is we we believe that it's all safe, We
believe that it's all self sufficient, and I'm telling you

(04:40):
it is not. And our food system has quietly become
a front line in the rivalry, rivalry between this country
and the Chinese Communist Party. We go about acting as
if lunch is in evitable, but Beijing understands that food

(05:04):
is power, and having stomachs full makes a country powerful.
The America First Policy Institute has issued a new report
i'ld summon up this way. Washington has long treated agriculture
as some sort of post political space where globalization could

(05:25):
do no harm, and therefore the government has been happy
to let much of the nation ship our growth in
agriculture to China. China has taken over critical pieces of
agricultural system, and consequently they've taken over part of our
food supply. That's created and obvious, a very obvious strategic vulnerability.

(05:50):
And I'll explain who and how and why they're doing
it next.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Mike, I just realized I haven't listened to Koa so
much since Rush.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Now that you're on there, it's getting right back up
there again. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Make make make sure that
management heard that. Yeah, make sure management heard that. By
the way, we've had quite a few goobers stop buying.
It's always interesting to meet the goobers. And they we
have one guy just a whole entire Sam's over there,

(06:23):
got an entire grocery cart. Look at that way to go,
sam way to halt way to haul it in. And
now we got more stuff coming. That's pretty good. So
we are we're at the King Supers at Colorado and Yale,
UH supporting the Food Bank of the Rockies. These are
the things that you can donate, including cash or is
a QR code if you want to do that. All

(06:43):
types of beans, canned corn, especially caned corn, other canned vegetables,
canned fruit, rice, all types of pasta, pasta, sauce, cereal peanut, butter, tuona,
whole frozen turkeys, get it all. Do not bring this
year damage and out of date stuff. No, don't try
to sneak that off on us. We'll take you off
the list. The Chinese Communist Party has spent at least

(07:06):
the last decade spreading its tentacles through our food production system.
A couple of groups that I want you to make
note of, and then I want you to, you know,
if you ever have a chance kind of dig into
these companies and realize, oh, it's the Chinese Communist Party,
something called the wh group and Sino kim Si NOCHM.

(07:33):
Think about Smithfield Foods. Smithfield Foods at one time was
probably one of the well. It was a model of
American agribusiness. In twenty thirteen, twelve years ago, it was
bought by wh group then called shang Wai. That's a
Chinese conglomerate financed by state banks, and it is guided

(07:53):
by controlled by and adher's to Beijing's five year plan
to quote go abroad. Now, at the time, as this
study indicates that I'm preferencing, it was the largest ever
acquisition of an American company by a Chinese firm. The
Obama administration approved the deal. There were to be objective

(08:19):
there were bipartisan objections, but in one single stroke, China
gained control over roughly a quarter of US pork production,
a quarter of US pork production. So that bacon you
enjoyed this morning, the ham sandwich you're going to have
this afternoon, or the barbecue pork sandwich you're going to
have tonight, or the pork spare ribs, yes, oh, that

(08:42):
might be owned by a Chinese company. The story at
the time barely even register on the business pages of
the Wall Street Journal. Now it reads like a don't
mean chapter in a really long scary story. So say
what you will about the Chinese Communist Party. I'll never
say this, but if you think they're dumb, trust me,
they are not dumb. Smith's Field's market power, let's its shape,

(09:07):
let's it shape, prices, it shaped standards all across the
pork industry, and all those profits they just very quickly,
quietly and neatly go back to China. Now, during the pandemic,
when you know, the grocery shells were empty, somehow smith
Fields still managed to ship thousands of times of pork

(09:27):
to Chinese ports every single month. Now, once you again,
you know, we spent a lot of time since I
moved over to koa of kind of going retro and
going back to COVID, because we are still learning things
that I think are important to understand about what happened
during that period. When you enter the grocery store during

(09:48):
COVID and you were looking for you know, you're looking
for bacon, you were looking for pork, spare ribs, you
were looking for you know, ham whatever, and well there
wasn't much of a selection, or maybe maybe they that
part of the refrigerator shelves were empty. Ask yourself, well, then,
how were thousands of tons of port still reaching Chinese

(10:10):
ports every month. No, not ports, not Long Beach, not
in the Gulf, not in Houston, not in New Orleans,
but in China. Well, that's because a Smithfield, and that's
because of these two companies buying out Smithfield, once a

(10:31):
giant conglomerate owned by Americans. Then there's a company called
Singenta s y n G E n Taenta. It's a
seed and agrochemical titan. Eight years ago it was purchased
by Kim China. That's a state owned enterprise. And when

(10:52):
I say state owned, I mean it's essentially a Chinese
Communist Party enterprise that later merged into that company I
mentioned earlier, Sino Kim. Now, despite being headquartered in Switzerland, Yes,
it's still an organ of Chinese industrial policy because it's
subsidiaries early through the thicket of shell companies to Xinjiang

(11:14):
entities that are accused of using forced labor, particularly the Wakers.
So all of this is going on right under our noses,
and we don't even realize that it's controlling our food production.
Do you want to know what's even worse, I'll tell
you that next.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Hey, Mike, I hear are a lot of shopping carts in
the background, which is to be expected, I suppose. But hey,
when you're off there and make see if you get
a chance to go over and see if they got
an extra hand baskets. I appreciate it. Thanks.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
H yeah, Oh are we are? We are? We on?
I'm sorry, I was I was talking to a goober.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
I was talking.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
I was talking to an aggie. Do you remember how
to do your job? No, I'm look, I'm distract I
got people are to talk to. Huh, We've got that's right,
shy objects. Goober's walking in and I have to talk
to the I have to talk to him. I can't
ignore them, that's right. Goober alert incoming. Goober incoming just

(12:15):
likes I am people. I am. I'm so happy. I'm
still happy. I'm just actually happy that people are happy
to see me. That's the real truth. That's what I'm
really happy about. No potshots or anything yet. I haven't
had to dodge any bullets or anything. So let's go
back to to these companies. So I told you about

(12:38):
Syngenta and Syngenta cells sees directly to something called the
yan Xing Yong I think is correct pronunciation, Production and
Construction Corps. That is a paramilitary conglomerate. That is the
very basis of Beijing's campaign of wed cation camps, and

(13:01):
those camps are aimed at the weaker population. So while
American farmer's bias and gentle projects of products to improve
their yields, those profits feed into a system of repression
halfway around the world. That's the worst kind of globalization
that you can possibly imagine. But then there's the question
of the data. Nobody ever thinks about the data, which

(13:23):
matters more now than ever, considering that the data access
is the Chinese Communist Party's greatest advantage in the AI
right in the AI race. So, modern farms are if
you've ever been on a modern farm, you know, here,
I'm sitting in a grocery city outside a grocery store,
and I would venture to say that ninety percent of
the people that are coming into this grocery store have

(13:45):
never visited a farm. Well, because my brother and his
son are both very heavily involved in agriculture, I just
have to know a little bit about how modern farms are.
Sensor laden, they're mapped with drone, they're advised by algorithms
with this company's and genda, and it's partners, including the

(14:06):
certain Chinese drone manufacturers. I forget which ones actually sell.
Quote smart agriculture platforms, and those smart agricultural platforms collect
torrents of data on American soil composition, on American crop patterns,
on our yields, and then under China's National Intelligence law,

(14:26):
all that information can be requisitioned by the state. In fact,
I shouldn't even use the word requisition. All of that
data that gets collected by Syngenda and these other corporations
is automatically transferred to the Chinese Communist Party. So imagine,
just imagine handing a rival superpower a continuously updated MRII,

(14:50):
if you will, of our own food system. And then
we call it efficiency. I think that's what drives me.
The battists we just referred to as well, we're just
being more efficient. We're being more productive. Our crop yields
are greater. Yeah, and they're controlling it. They're controlling all
of that. You see, China views our openness. If you

(15:11):
think about the Art of war, they look upon us
as an enemy. So when you if you've ever read
the Art of war, you do what you look for
your opponents, your enemies, weakness, and they see our openness
as our weakness, and its own opacity, its own you

(15:32):
can't see inside it, that's their strength. I think we
would do very well if we understand that mindset and
we don't get arrogant about it. While we assumed moral superiority,
which somehow carry the day, China implementing the art of
war stayed focused on the simpler, harder truth of power.

(15:53):
And again, you wouldn't actually be kind of funny if
it wasn't true. So while our media spends years fixating
on some stupid like TikTok tracking teenagers, which don't get
me wrong, I think is a real concern, China just
nonchalantly secures access to the data sets that doesn't track
an algorithm, that doesn't use an algorithm to track what

(16:16):
video you're watching and feed you more to reinforce your
already believe you're already deeply held beliefs. But what do
they do. They secure access to the data sets that
feed ourselves, and none of it's accidental. The Chinese Communist
Party's economic blueprint explicitly constructs its companies to secure global

(16:41):
agricultural assets so they can achieve self sufficiency through overseas acquisition.
So what they refer to as food security we call
foreign direct investment. You hear a lot about food security.
I'm out here raising money or raising food food for
the Food Bank of the Rockies for people who are

(17:02):
food insecure, and so we're always talking about food insecurity.
We're always talking about people who are hungry in this country. Well,
maybe we want to take it to a next level
and talk about food security the way Beijing talks about
food security, and that is how do we ensure and
they're doing it through overseas acquisitions, how do we ensure

(17:24):
that we're always able to feed our own people. Oh,
let's just buy up a bunch of American corporations. Let's
buy up one of America's largest pork producers, and then
when the shutdown occurs, let's make sure that all that
port gets shipped over seas to feed our people. And
if Americans can't find enough bacon or pork or ham
or whatever to buy, well, it sucks to be Americans.

(17:47):
That's not accidental. That is a danger to us. So
the next time you think about food security, yes, you
can think about people that we're trying to get food
for to feed during the holiday. But I want you
to think about food security, about our food system, about
agricultural system, and how we've allowed we've allowed the Chinese

(18:10):
Communist Party to actually invert that and use it to
our advantage. So what Congress ought to be doing is
forcing the divestiture of strategic assets, restrict our fiercest geopolitical
competitor from owning American land. If so called dominance sounds, well,
that's not very polite, Michael, then let's at least go

(18:32):
for symmetry. The alternative is to tolerate theft and give
up defense of our own farmland. So instead of being
here for people to take American products and put them
in these boxes to feed Americans, we're going to be
turning to the Chinese Communist Party and begging them, hey,
can you help us feed our own people. So, on

(18:55):
the very day that I'm sitting here trying to get
food for the Food Bank of the Words, I want
you to think about food security in an entirely different
way that Congress just twiddles its thumbs. The Department of
Agriculture twiddles its thumbs and we all see it as
direct investment. Why, look, these companies are investing in America.

(19:18):
I'm not sure I want a company that answers to
the Chinese Communist Party investing in what we do to
feed our people, So stop and think about it that way.
The the Trump administration has now deported dozens of Ukrainian criminals,

(19:41):
and Kiev says a use will be found for them. Hmmm,
that didn't sound very good. Ukraine State Border Guards Service
has confirmed that fifty Ukrainian citizens deported from the United
States have arrived back in the country through the Shinyai
crossing on the border with Poland. These officials said the
deportees care to either documents verifying the Ukrainian citizenship or

(20:03):
other paperwork that permits their return. All of this is
at the same time that The Financial Times had a
story about the corruption going on in Ukraine. Hundreds of
millions of dollars are unaccounted for. Hundreds of millions of dollars. Now,

(20:23):
I'm not taking this is not a segment about for
or against whatever Trump is trying to do to bring
about peace in Ukraine. This is about us demanding accountability
for what we have and what we are giving to
the Ukrainians. The Ukrainian Embassy in DC has earlier noted
that an estimated eighty Ukrainian nationals have been issued final

(20:46):
deportation orders due to violations of US law, and notably,
Ukraine has taken a more cooperative stance toward our deportation efforts.
Is that because of the Financial Times reporting of the
corruption going on. I don't know whether it is, but
as I like to say, there is never there is
never a coincidence in Washington, d C. Everything is done

(21:08):
very specifically, one after another, So I think the shift
is believed to be linked to kids everage to maintain
our support amid their ongoing war with Russia. One unnamed
advisor to Zelenski was quoted as saying, this, do you
US can deport as many citizens as at once and
the use will be found for them. I don't even

(21:31):
want to imagine what that means. Among those deported, a
forty one year old Roman guy by the name of
Romans Service I can't pronounce the last name, Sir Sath,
who was legally immigrated to this country as a child
but later served a prison simptence for a burglary. His
lawyers argued that he and others had been denied the
opportunity to present claims to fear regarding the removal, claiming

(21:53):
the process is unlawful. A spokesman for the Ukraine State
Border Guard confirmed the group's return, saying that today fifty
citizens returned to the United States through this checkpoint. They
were documented with the appropriate papers confirming the Ukrainian citizenship
or documents for their return. Now, all of these removals

(22:14):
come about while there's two things going on, the disclosure
of the financial times of the corruption that's occurring, and
the sweeping expansion of our immigration enforcement. Since the start
of the year, US authorities have carried out more than
a half a million deportations and are on pace to
reach six hundred thousand by the end of the year.

(22:36):
That would set a new record, and analysts are Analysts
are also reporting that US foreign born population has now
fallen by an estimated two point two million. That includes
both deportations and voluntary departures that are contributing to that decline.

(22:59):
I watched I'm Home on TV last night. He's calling
for an increasing the daily arrests to seven thousand and now.
The administration is moving to expand attention capacity, staffing and
arguing that significantly greater resources are needed to sustain the
current levels of removal. What's the reaction going to be?

(23:20):
Have you thought about that? You see what's going on
in Charlotte, You see what's going on in Houston and LA.
There's all this backlash, and of course, as I like
to say, that's exactly what I voted for, not the
backlash before the removals. I think if they continue to
move this way and do these things, we can expect
even further backlash. And we need to be ready to

(23:41):
stand up and say this is precisely what we voted for,
because otherwise, yeah, it'll grind to a halt, depending on
what happens in the mid terms. Speaking of the Chinese,
a space capsule has been damaged by space debris has
left three Chinese astronauts stranded aboard the tiang Space Station.

(24:04):
They're part of the Sinzu twenty one mission that includes
a six month rotation aboard the Chinese space station. They
currently have no means of returning to the Earth after
the prior missions capsule was damaged. It was damaged by
suspected space debris, delaying the return by over a week,
so instead of using the damaged spacecraft, they returned on
the Sinju twenty one capsule, which had just brought their

(24:27):
replacements to the station. That decision left the new crew
without a dedicated return vehicle. Why do we even care
about the story because the Chinese don't care. The Chinese
Manned Space Agency CMSA says that the Sinzhu's twenty spacecraft
does not meet the requirements for the astronaut's safe return

(24:50):
and will remain in order to conte to continue relevant
experience experiments. The commander of the mission remarked after returning
to Earth, the one that got to go back, the
path of human space exploration is not smooth. It is
filled with difficulties and challenges that he says, that is

(25:10):
exactly why we chose to walk this path. So the
original cruise landing in the Gobi Desert marked the end
up of record breaking two hundred and four days stay
for the astronauts aboard the Chinese Space station, but it
raises broader concerns about the vulnerability of all spacecraft to

(25:31):
space debris, an issue that's affected other missions, including one
by NASA back but I think three or four years ago.
So the Chinese Space Agency has not clarified whether or
not the damage will impact future missions. I just find
it kind of funny that the Chinese Communist Party, Eh,
we don't have any plans. We'll figure something out, but

(25:53):
you think we'll ever know about it? Probably not. Then
there's this, there's a woman whould she's fighting for her
life because she was she was set a fire. Set
a fire a board of Chicago Transit Authority Blue Line

(26:13):
train last night a twenty six year old woman a
forty five year old male assailant. Happened a little after
nine o'clock on Monday night as a train approached the
Clark and Lake stop that's in the Loop area. According
to the Chicago Police Department, the victim was doused in

(26:33):
an unknown liquid before being set alike. She was able
to stumble onto the platform. Fortunately bystanders extinguished the flames.
She was rushed to Chicago's Hospital with severe burns to
her body and face. She remains in critical condition. The suspect,
only described as a forty five year old man, fled

(26:55):
the scene and today still remains at large. Chicago, you're
still a hell hole, and Mayor, it's time to clean
it up. I know you won't, but it's time to
clean it up. With the Democrats, who have truly been
rendered desperate by the success of Trump's policies, have now

(27:19):
called upon the military and the deep state to engage
in sedition. Yeah, to actually engage in sedition. Over the
Gateway Pundit, they report this. Congressional Democrats are now encouraging
members of the military and the intelligence community to sabotage
Trump from within. Senators Elisa Slopkin of Michigan, Mark Kelly

(27:43):
of Arizona, along with Congressman Christy Luizia of Pennsylvania, Christy
Hulhana Pennsylvania, Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire. Jason crow of
Colorado posted a video yesterday essentially ordering these professionals to
betray and implement a soft coup, rendering him powerless to

(28:05):
carry out his policies. I don't care whether they describe
it as soft or otherwise. A coup is a coup
is a coup. Jason Crowe, you took an oath of office.
You took an oath of office to defend the Constitution,
not to subvert it by deliberately paralyzing elected leadership and

(28:28):
leftist democrats like you and Mark Kelly and all the
others of your cohorts, I'm beginning to believe are truly
enemies of the United States, you know, being Democrats, they
predictably accuse their opponents of doing exactly what they are doing,
undermining the Constitution, that somehow they're the only ones that
can protect democracy. They claim that they're the ones protecting

(28:50):
democracy when they're the ones out there telling people to
sabotage the president and his policies. I think that's crossing
a line. I think that's crossing a very serious line
that says you've got to stop doing You've got to
stop following lawful orders of the president. We want you
to actually sabotage this president. And Jason Crow was right

(29:14):
in the middle of it. So I don't know what
do we do, service personnel. Do we have to equip
you with a collection of law books so that you
can confirm the legality of any order that the liberals
like Jason Crow may not like. Now you should note
that in all the stories that I read, they never

(29:37):
specify what orders are supposedly illegal. I think the intended
effect is to simply sew division, throw a monkey wrench
into the gears of government until the midterms when they
think they can regain control of at least the House
and maybe the Senate. But if they're hyperbolic, rhetoric regarding
this imaginary threat posed by Trump leads to, oh, I

(30:01):
don't know, further assassination attempts. I think that you can
honestly say so much better. From the Democrat viewpoint, it's
astonishing to me that a former member of the United
States military and now a United States congressman from this state.
Maybe I shouldn't be surprised by this, but nonetheless, I

(30:21):
am would actually call upon them to quote sabotage the
Trump administration and to quit following orders. Now, it's pretty
well known under the Uniform Code of Military Justice that
you are to disobey an unlawful order, but that's not
what Jason Crow's calling for. Jason Crowe is calling for

(30:45):
the sabotage and the disobedience of any order by I
guess the President or the Secretary of War PTE. Hegesas,
or anybody else in the chain of command. That is
bordering on sedition, and that is bordering on actually creating
some sort of revolutionary underpinning, all because they simply want power,

(31:10):
and all simply because they cannot stomach Donald Trump. You know,
if you can't st if you can't stomach Donald Trump,
there's a way to take care of that, and that's
to win the midterm elections in twenty twenty six and
to win the presidency in twenty twenty eight. It is
not to use the deep state or to use the

(31:32):
military to sabotage the policies of a duly elected president.
Every time. Now when you hear oh, you've got to
save democracy, Oh we have to protect democracy, we have
to do this or that, I want you to think
about exactly what it is that Jason Crow said and
his cohorts that join in exactly the same thing.
