Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's what many of us assume. But a national security
expert just actually accused Mamdani of siding with the Iranian regime.
It's for Regie Gabrielle. You've got to hear what she's
got to say. What do you think about Mamdanni, this
guy who lied about affordability and got elected as if
he's just a smiling clown and he's going to take
care of everybody in free grocery stores and free buses
and none of that stuff's really happening. But what do
(00:22):
you think about him saying if Benjamin et Yajo comes here,
I think he's a war criminal and the ICC has
a warrant for his arrest. I think he should be
in the Hague and he's trying to figure out what
he can do. What do you think about this guy,
the mayor of New York, thinking that he can arrest
the prime minister of Israel.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Well, Mamdannie has a track record of thinking a lot
of things.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
I'm promising a lot.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Of things, yes, and realizing every single one of them failed.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
So what should he change now?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
He is playing to the base, That's exactly what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
He is playing to that new.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Socialist Communist Democratic voter on TikTok, promising them things they
do not know any better.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
He doesn't even know the law.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
We cannot Arrestaniahu. And also we are not a part
of the Hague. We're not part of the International Court.
So he was arrested and turns him to the Hague.
That's a non starter. But that's what Mam Donny is doing.
This is political theater, playing to his base. The same
way he promised, I'm gonna give you a free rent,
(01:23):
I'm gonna give you free grocery stores, I'm gonna give you.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Free this, free that.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Only together like that and realize none of that works
because it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Work in reality.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
So again he's just continuing to play to his base
because this is what fires up the base of the
Democratic Party. They are driven by hatred, they are driven
by laziness, they are driven by a lack of intellect,
lack of information. They get their news from TikTok.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
What do you expect. It's the blind leading the blind.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Act for America. Dot org is the website. Go there
and check out what Brasheita's doing. And a great folks
you're doing over and Act for America with Mom, Donny.
The interesting thing to me, and nobody wants to point
this out, I'm happy to point it out. He complains
about a genocide in Gaza. Now, the numbers that we're
getting are sixty four or sixty five thousand people have
been killed. But those numbers are Mohammas Hamaskun be lying.
(02:13):
We have no idea how many really died there.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
We also know that could be lying. They are lying
because that's what Hamas.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Does, right.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
I want to compare that to what we know to
have been the dead in Iran, fifty to fifty five
thousand civilians who just wanted to have a little bit
of freedom, little liberty, not have to worry the job everywhere,
not have somebody's thumb on their neck. Fifty thousand plus
were killed in the streets. They were spraying down the
blood off the streets with hoses, and Mamdani doesn't say
(02:42):
anything that's not a genocide, but he thinks what's happening
in Gaza is a genocide. For you, are people smart
enough to realize that he's playing a game, and AOC's
playing a game in this guy said in Michigan that
might be the next senator is just playing a game.
They know they're lying right.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Well, the problem is there do not know any better.
They don't know any better. Again, they are not watching
legitimate news channels that's actually giving them the proper news.
They're getting the news from TikTok, from Instagram, They're getting
their news from social media. They are the people who
voted for the AOC, they are the people who voted
(03:18):
for Mamdani. So they've got a base of voters right
now where they All they care about is emotions. Everything
is driven by emotion. We are angry at the government
that we want free housing. Therefore we're gonna elect anybody
who's gonna give us free housing. We are so angry
at what's happening in Gaza, and therefore we're gonna elect
anybody that hates Israel. They are driven by emotion, they
(03:40):
are driven by anger, and so they don't know any better.
And that's exactly the problem now with the Democratic Party
and the old days, the Democratic Party, at least the voters,
you know, the republic We always have Democrats and Republicans.
They did not agree with each other, but they never
hated each other. They debated ideas and if your friend
will the Democrat and he voted Democrat, you wouldn't cut
(04:03):
them off, or that he wouldn't cut you off because
we don't cut off the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
They cut us off if we vote.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
If they know we even agree with Trump on one
or two things, you know, you're completely You're out of
my life. You're a Nazi, You're support a Nazi, a pedophile.
I don't want to have anything with you. I can
tell you I have lost friendships of over twenty thirty
years because my friends now do not agree with the
fact that I stand strong for national security and with
(04:31):
President Trump, because President Trump is strong in national security.
So this is the emotional immaturity that we are dealing with, Joe.
So we're dealing with emotionally immature block of voters who
are young, who feel they can change the world, who
feel they're gonna do socialism and this time it's gonna
(04:51):
work because they know how to do it better than
anybody else that write it before them, because they're very special,
you know. And so this is Madani is appealing with,
and this is who the Bernie Sanders.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Is appealing to. And look at that leadership at the
House in Congress.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
They know that's exactly why they went to Bernie Sanders,
trying to appeal to him to stay out of this
upcoming the term election, not realizing Bernie Sanders has more
influence on the Democratic voter right now across the nation,
and the youth and more is in a connection with
the Democratic voter than those who are sitting in Congress
(05:29):
right now. This is how far the party has shifted.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, but by the way, Brigite Gabrielle, national security expert,
go to Act for America dot org. Act for America
dot org. There's a duopoly here when it comes to
these Islamis that are taking big, big chairs in big seats.
They don't really like Bernie Sanders, they don't really like AOC,
they don't really like LGBTQXYZ, they don't really like you
know what they say that they like, But they're saying
(05:53):
the things that will get them in the positions. I'll
give you the example of Hamtramck, Michigan or Dearborn, Michigan,
where we just want we want everybody to be affordable,
we want to make it a better city. Now you
get the call to prayer five times a day audibly
throughout these cities, You've got Mamdanni who is putting people
in positions that are gay or lesbian or whatever. You know,
he doesn't really like them. So what's the game here?
(06:15):
Because you know that he is a guy who is
the same sort of Muslim that the theocracy is in Iran.
Mamdannie agrees with they're on in the theocracy, So he
can't possibly be this guy he's pretending he is. How
does he get from where he's pretending to be to
who he wants to be? Because that's the goal, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Victory is the goal, okay, And it doesn't matter how
long it takes and.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
What they have to do. The end goal is victory.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Now you have to use a lot of useful idiots
along the way to get to the end goal.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
And that's exactly what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Remember, Islam has a track record of over sixteen hundred years.
America is an agent of a two hundred and fifty years.
He's he's a seventeen year old. So those Islamists are
looking at the West and thinking, ah, we can walk
all over these people.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
We've done it before and we're gonna do it again.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Remember Islam by the sixteen hundreds, covered more of the
Earth's surface than the Islamic that the Roman Empire did.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
That it speak. How do you think Islam got to China?
How do you think Islam.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Got to India? How do you think Islam got to Spain?
How do you think Islam got to Europe? And we're
talking back. Remember they were stopped at the gates of
Vienna or nine to eleven, and that's why Osama bin
Laden chose that date. Now, how do you think they
ended up from Saudi Arabia from the heart of them
at least spreading all across the globe. They spread across
(07:41):
the globe using two things jihad and israel migration. And
that's exactly what they are doing. And they've got a
track record of knowing exactly what the end result is
going to be. It's just a matter of time. The
problem is our side is ignorant, uninformed, do not care
about learning about history, do not like history, and they
(08:03):
are driven by emotions today because of the influence of
social media. Now remember everybody in the Arabic world does
not have social media.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Like the United States.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
So you've got people, for example, kids in Jordan thirteen
fourteen years old. Do you think they are on social
media the way American kids are.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Of course not.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I know they're not because I come from that part
of the world. I know the culture, and so they are.
Now the Islamists are coming to the West and all
they need is enough vote to.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Get them elected. And that's exactly why care.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
The Council and American Islamic Relations have become a very
organized and lethal voting organizing machine because they are a
political organization. They are mobilizing the vote in mosques, they
are mobilizing the votes through Islamic institution. They are coordinating
with other Islamic organizations throughout the country and making sure
(08:56):
they organize communities to come out, not just vote, but
run their own candidates from their own mosques and going
out and supporting them until victory. While at the same
time our side sits at home. You've got the Christians
who say, well, I'm not gonna vote. I'm just gonna pray.
I'm gonna pray for our nation, I'm gonna read my Bible,
(09:18):
but I do not want to go out and vote.
You've got the regular people, the lay you know, maybe conservative,
maybe Republicans, Well, you know, I don't like candidates so
and so because I don't like him or her, I'm
not gonna go out and vote. We are so divided
on our side, Joe, that we better get their our
act together by the midterm and beyond, because if we
(09:41):
don't get our act together, just what's what's gonna happen
to America ten years from now? We are already seeing
the writing on the wall. And that's why I urge
people to go to Act for America.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Dot or great now.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Go to Act for America dot or join us, take
action on our action campaign and click on act out
and make sure you call your senators to pass the
Save America Act. Whatever you have to do, whatever they
have to do.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Click on those campaigns.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
We give you their phone number, We give you an
email already pre written to them. We want you engaged
so we can notify you about bills coming down for
a vote to secure our nation. We better get organized
on our site and we better be effective in our activism.
Listening to talk radio is not activism. Watching television is
not activism. That's entertainment. Taking action, calling your electri officials,
(10:32):
sending an email, that's how you impact policy.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Act for America dot organs FO or America dot Org
act for America dot organ always listen to talk radio,
but you're right, you have to take action as well.
It is Brigite, Gabrielle Brigitta, as a national security expert,
let me ask you something. If we have said Antifa
is a domestic terrorist organization, if we have said Care
has ties to Islamists and to possible terror organizations, why
(10:56):
haven't we done anything about it yet? Why are they
still allowed to exist? Why wouldn't we going to rest
everybody in Antifa and kick Care out?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Because our elector officials need to hear from the base
in order to do the right thing. Because remember, the
left is very mobilized, and they not only call their
elector officials and our elector officials bombard them.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
And they're not only.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Called one time and say, oh, I ready called my
electric official. They call every single day or three times
a week minimum.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Our side doesn't do that.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
So our side when they step forward and say, okay,
we're going to introduce a bill to bed the Muslim
Brotherhood or designate CARE as an Islamic organization as a
domestic terrorist organization, they aren't here from the base because
our side thinks, oh, okay, my Republican leaders, of course
they're going to vote for that, or maybe they.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Will call once once and that's it.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
But if a bill like this is introduced in Congress,
which it is because we are we have again. If
you go to Actfromerica dot org and click on act
Now Act Now National, you'll see our national to designate
care on the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organizations, just
like what.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
We did in Florida and then Texas. You know we're
able to put us in two states.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
We introduced it also in Arizona, and so we want
to make sure people are watching us right now on
the internet. Go to our website, click on act now
on our Act now campaigns and take action on these campaigns.
Our elected officials need to hear from you. You can
call them every single day. You can send them an
email every single day, not once every single day. They say,
(12:33):
squeaky wheel gets the oil. The Democrats are squeaking. Our
side is praying. You can pray, but you better start
squeaking as well.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Courage is in.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Something that you discover when life is easy. In fact,
is revealed when standing for your faith comes with a cost.
We all know what happened to my friend Charlie Kirk.
He'd been in my show six times. He was somebody
they texted back and forth with, and he was somebody
that we all learned from, somebody who really still for
what he believed in. That's what makes Charlie Kirk American
Martyr such a powerful story that I want you to
(13:06):
make sure you watch him, have your kids watch it too.
It's not just about politics. It's about a man whose
faith shaped every decision he made, who loved his family,
invested in the next generation, in fact, chose conviction over comfort.
It asks the question every Christian should consider, what am
I willing to stand for? Really? In a world that
constantly pressures believers that say quiet, Charlie's story reminds us
(13:29):
that following Christ has always required boldness, humility, and unwavering faith.
His legacy isn't about faith, It's about faithfulness, and he
stood for that every day of his life.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
If you're looking for.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
A story that will challenge and encourage you to live
at your own calling with courage, you need to see this.
Go right now to angel dot com, slash pegs, angel
dot com, slash PAGs. Become an Angel Guild member watch
Charlie Kirk, American martyr, and help bring more stories of faith, courage,
and conviction to audiences worldwide. Start squeaking. It is an
(14:03):
act for America. Dot Organs, Brigee Gabrielle, let me ask
you something. Can can our government for even a second,
trust that the theocracy in Iran is going to be
dealing with a fair, fair minded hand. Are they ever
going to be telling us the truth? I don't believe them.
Is our government believing them? Or is there something else
going on here that I'm not saying?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Well, I think President Trump realized the very valuable realization
that you cannot negotiate with the Iranians. Because you may
have the good heart, you may have the goodwill, you
may want to strike and good faith a peace deal
with them. With the Iranians, they don't have the same
good intentions as we do. President Trump realized after this
(14:42):
memorandum of understanding that JD. Vance and Jared Kushner got
him to believing that, Oh, it's going to work. Because
we can talk to them about prosperity and money, We're
gonna be able to bring them into the world. They're
going to be a part of the world markets, and
they're gonna be able to prosper as if the Iranians
good care less about America and Israel, the swine eating wine,
(15:06):
drinking to a cursed country by Allah. And so the
Iranians negotiated knowing that they are dragging the American as
far as they can close to the midterm, thinking maybe
President Trump is gonna came President Trump learned at this point,
I believe that you cannot trust the Iranians. They're not
going to negotiate in good faith. He already learned that lesson.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I gotta stop you, Briginia. I gotta stop you because
I love you, your your brain. Let me ask you something.
When I saw number six that said they got three
hundred billion dollars, When I saw number seven that said
all those sanctions will be lifted or lifted, And then
when I saw their their pr guy come out the
next day saying we beat two nuclear powers in Israel
and America and now we're a superpower. Maybe I'm the idiot.
(15:50):
If I'm in the White House at that point, I
say forget it. We're blowing you off the map. Because
at that point they told the world everything that just
happened benefited us, and we beat.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Them, Yes I did.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Because they want the PR victory, just like Hamas want
the PR victory against Israel and the West.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
We think victory is defeating them militarily.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Remember, these people could care less about how many missiles
you destroy, whether you destroyed your nuclear reactor. They're gonna
outrun you because they know that in America there's an
election every four years. All they have to do is
be able to survive for another two years until Trump
is out of office. And that was Hamas's strategy with Israel.
As long as we are alive. Look, Israel beat us
(16:33):
down for two years. They were not able to kill
us or get us out. We are still here. We
outlived Israeli bombardment.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Way, why can't we get them out? Regie, why can't
we get them out? We took out the first three
levels of the theocracy. But from one of them, and
correct me if I'm wrong. You know more than me.
And from what I understand, the iro GC doesn't even
listen to the theocracy. They do anything they want. Is
that true?
Speaker 3 (16:53):
That's right, Yes, that's true.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
So how do you beat them?
Speaker 2 (16:57):
The only way you're gonna beat them is you're gonna
keep beating them and beating them and beating them and
bombing them and then have a regime change, and then
you're going to have the suicide bombers.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
They're like cancer and you have to keep fighting.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
You have to go in and do surgery until you
get all the cancer out. We need to go in
and take carg Island because we need to suffocate them
at every level. I know President Trump doesn't want to
hurt the people of Iran, but the people of Iran
are already hurting. Every single family has been affected by
the loss of the forty to fifty thousand people that
were massacred by the Iranian regime, and so every family
(17:33):
in Iran has been affected, has either lost a loved
one directly or a family member by extension. So they
are hurting and they do not want this regime. They
were willing to give up their lives to fight this regime.
The regime is not that a change until we change
the leadership and kill them all and bring them to
their knees, because in their mind, they are fighting a
(17:54):
spiritual battle and Allah is on their side, and Allah
is protecting them because look, after all the bombardment that
America did to them. They are still alive and they
are still able to launch missiles against us. But again,
the problem why they are able to launch missiles is
because we stopped two.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Weeks short of eliminating them.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
We know, by the time we stopped the bombardment ninety
days ago, we knew that they still had fifteen hundred
missiles and about one hundred and fifty to one hundred
and seventy five missile launchers.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
We knew that, we.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Knew it's gonna take us two more weeks to finish
all that. But then the that you know, our friends
in the Arabic world, we're talking to President Trump, please
slow down. We are worried they're gonna kill us, They're
gonna attack us. Let's give negotiations place. And what did
the Iranians do? Start digging out their missiles and this
is exactly how we lose like what they attacked Jordan
(18:49):
and we lost our members in Jordan.
Speaker 1 (18:52):

Speaker 3 (19:35):
We made it stupid proof. Anybody can do it.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I even I can do it. So there you go.
It is Brigit Gabrielle Cherwell and over at act for
America dot org. My great friend BRIGII just laid out
the accusation and told us what's actually going on inside
the borders of the United States. Now, Colonel Rob Maynis
is going to join us with the hard military evidence
on what that regime actually does. This is what we're
getting from the administration that I'm a huge supporter. I'm
(20:00):
a huge supporter of President Trump interviewed him fifteen times.
Loved the Trump family, But is the straight opener closed?
I have no idea. Today it's open, tomorrow it's closed.
We control it, the Iranians control it. It's international waters.
Iran says that it's not. Did we decimate their their
air defense system? Did we really decimate their navy? If so,
how are they attacking places like Bahrain? I don't know so, Colonel,
(20:23):
I'm not being overly skeptical. I'm asking questions. I think
people that love this president and this administration, you just
want answers to what can you tell us about what's
going on in Iran right now? As far as you know.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Let's start with the Strait of Horbeuz.
Speaker 5 (20:38):
Iran has not been able to have any control over
the strait other than in people's minds for a very.
Speaker 4 (20:46):
Very long time.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Now.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
We have eliminated their.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
Capability to do anything other than do harassing fire.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Quite honestly, Joe.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
I mean, and it's going to happen as long as
they continue to be intransigent and not acknowledged that the
Strait of Horror moves is international waters and that the
commercial shipping out there is civilian shipping, and that they
not only do not have control, they will not have
control over that international waterway. The United States mission to
(21:16):
prevent that from happening goes all the way back to
George Washington.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Man. Look, the only ship.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
Picture I have on my wall in my office is
a print of the USS Constitution, and it's titled.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Payment and Iron.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
It's leading the American fleet that was created to put
the Islamis Barbary pirates back in their place because they
were attacking American commercial shipping in international waters, the same
thing the Iranian Islamists are doing.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
And that's where the United States is coming from.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
The President's exactly right to even without epic fury, the
President is exactly right to challenge them on this if
they especially if they were to harm US commercial shipping.
And I think they have taken a few shots at
those over the years, and especially back in the day,
you know, the eighties and that kind of era, they
(22:06):
were striking our commercial shipping quite frequently. But no, they
do not control the street. As a matter of fact,
every minute that goes by, they have less control over
anything in their country, even let alone over the Strait
of Hormoes.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Now Is it some people's minds that the.
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Ship captains may be afraid to go through there those
kind of things. Absolutely, is it. Is it preventing shipping
from being at normal levels, Yeah, it is. But we're
now back to blockading the Iranians, so they're not getting
the half a billion dollars in oil revenue that they
were getting for a very short period of time when
we agreed to wave it, wave the sanctions on that
(22:47):
and remove the blockade because they did what they said
they would do on the MoU once and then they
went crazy and started shooting at people again and have
even killed some civilian sailors quite frankly. And now the
President has has pushed the throttle back up and we're
doing full air tasking orders every single night. I'd like
to see it go to twenty four hours a day,
(23:07):
seven days a week. Get the Israeli Air Force back involved,
if they're not involved already.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
I'm not sure if they are.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
I've heard some rumblings today that they're about to start
conducting operations with us again, because honestly, we haven't been
attacking the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps enough. At the individual
commander level, we're attacking their systems, their communications, their radars.
You mentioned, we've taken down their air defense system to
(23:37):
the point where we can range that country at will
with our military aircraft, and they're not able to take
a shot at them unless somebody gets puts themselves down
in an envelope where they've got a shoulder fired missile
or some other small capability that they may still have
hidden somewhere, but the big system is down all the time.
(23:58):
They're not able to defend them themselves. They have no
air force left, but they do have a ground force left,
and we haven't really been targeting that enough.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
And I'm not talking about.
Speaker 5 (24:08):
The tanks and the trucks and the artillery pieces that stuff. Yes,
we have been, but we need to focus on the
forces themselves and the commanders themselves, because as we have
blockaded them and prevented them from getting revenue, they're not
able to pay their people. And if they're not able
to pay their people, those people's families are telling them, hey,
(24:30):
what are you doing? Is this really worth this? We're
starving here, we don't have enough water, we can't eat.
You know, that's the kind of warfare that needs to
occur and is occurring now again because they messed up
on the attempt to get a piece deal with them,
and I think the President should continue until one of
(24:51):
two things happens.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
We've killed enough of the.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
IRGC commanders to where the Iranian people can rise up
on their own and take the country back.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
That's what really needs to happen.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
Or we kill enough the Iranian commanders that they ultimately
capitulate and the Iranian people take over peacefully, and then
we can go in peacefully and do things like get
the enriched uranium out, disassemble their capability of creating the
rich geranium and those kind of things, and we end
up with in Iran it's a peaceful trading partner, a
(25:25):
friend and a neighbor that's not attacking even the people
that have tried.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
To help them. They've fired missiles at countries that have
been their ally. I know that makes no sense, and
that's exactly right. It makes no sense.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
That's why the President my recommendation, if I had the
opportunity to speak with and would be to continue this.
Actually ramp it up. Go twenty four hours a day,
seven days a week. You have the capability to do it.
That israelis will help us do it, and they have
some great capabilities that we're not taking advantage over it.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
If you're already on a Medicare plan, you did your
due diligencia. You think that you chose everything correctly, might
not have and it's not your fault. There are tens
of thousands of planes out there. You need an advisor,
and the one I trust is Chapter. Askchapter dot org,
slash PAGs is the website. Even a plan that looks
solid on paper can actually be wrong and have gaps
in there. And Chapter is the organization that's going to
(26:16):
go through in less than twenty minutes on the phone
to find out if you're on the right plane. By
the way, if you are on the right plane, they'll
tell you a lot of people listening to my program
or watching the show, they are now getting hold of Chapter.
And one caller was scared about a worst case scenario,
a major hospital stay, a long fight, was something serious.
His Chapter advisor walked him through everything and his actual
(26:37):
plan showed him that once he hit his deductible, he
was covered one hundred percent no matter what came next.
Not a guess, not a maybe, just real relief and
listen to this. On average, those who are using Chapter
are saving up to eleven hundred dollars every single year.
That's real money that you can save. And if you're
on the right plane, as I said, you gotta stay
on the right plan because Chapter is gonna say, hey,
(26:58):
good news, you're on the right plane. Get hold a
Chapter right now. It's free. The call is under twenty minutes.
Set it up at ask Chapter dot org, slash PAGs.
Ask Chapter dot org slash PAGs right now. It's the
host of the Robminis Show, and in fact it is
Colonel Robminis, retired to a US Air Force. Go to
robmanus dot com. Get his book What you Can Do
About It, Taking real Action against corruption, radicalism and moral
(27:21):
decay to save America. The IRGC, you just sort of
explained this, but I want to I want to pair
this down even more. The IRGC is not listening to
the theocracy. In my opinion, it's not like the executive
branch here where you've got a commander in chief that
says this is what you do. I think the theocracy.
Although I think they're lying it was a ruse to
maybe buy some time. I think they did want to
cease fire for a while. I don't think the IRGC
(27:43):
listened to it. I think the IRGC said, don't have
a deal with you. Maybe the theocracy does the eye
it told it us. I don't. We'll do whatever we want.
So what you just said is really really important. How
can you go and take out not only just the
leadership of the IRGC, but killing up of the soldiers
because they're in uniform. I think we know where they are.
Why don't we just kill them as many as we can?
And I don't mean with ground troops. I mean with
(28:04):
the air supremacy that we have, and with our boats,
our ships off the shore, killing up of the ira
GC to where the people can say, all right, fifty
thousand died in the street trying to get some freedom
and liberty. But if we get fifty thousand more, or
one hundred thousand or a million, we might be able
to take these guys. Why aren't we focusing on the
IRGC or are we we just don't know about it?
Speaker 5 (28:24):
Well, we are, but we're focusing on capabilities and removing
capabilities like you know, their artillery, their rockets, their missiles,
their launchers, their resources, the power systems that provide power
to systems, their communications systems, some of their leaders early on,
(28:45):
especially as the President has said he's killed down to
he's on the third layer of commanders that he's killed.
But the Israelis were helping us do that early in
epic fury. And I haven't seen any indication that we're
back to aggressively argating them as much as as we were.
And we need to do that, but we need to
(29:05):
target the men in the forces that those commanders command,
exactly right. And I understand there's probably people advising this
president that say, look, we want them to be able
to defend themselves.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
The army is not really the i er GC.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
There's a whole mixture of the of nuances with this organization.
That's that's really And you you hit on the dirty
little secret. The dirty little secret, Joe is the IERGC
has always controlled the country. The theocracy is just a facade,
all right, is always in control.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
They've always been in control of that country.
Speaker 5 (29:42):
Uh, the theocracy is there, the parliament is there, but
it's just a facade. If you look at the president,
he was an IRGC member before the IERGC insisted on
having Commandy the son who has not been seen. I'm
not sure if he's still alive or not, right, but
they insisted having him because they knew they could control
roll him because they could they knew him through his
(30:02):
dad's work and everything, and they know they can control them,
and they are controlling it.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
So it's really about the I ergy.
Speaker 5 (30:08):
See. But there's another aspect of the I ergy you
see a lot of people don't understand. It's called the besiege.
The besiege are the internal forces that keep the population
under control. They're the ones that you've seen in the
videos shooting people in the streets control them, and early
on the Israelis were attacking them very, very effectively. They
couldn't even set up a checkpoint in a city in
(30:31):
the open without a drone showing up and dropping bombs
on them. They started putting checkpoints in under overpasses and
in tunnels and everything so that they could continue to
try to control the population. We need to target that
force extensively more than we have been in the past,
uh uh, and continue to take out their capabilities. When
(30:51):
they reconstitute a capability, we should take it away from
a again. All the while keep this blockada. We have
been bombed some bridges that we had left on the table.
And these bridges are important, like up in the northern
part of the country. They were bridges coming from China
and coming from the area that Russia has access to
and has the port on the Caspian Sea that they
(31:14):
were offloading resupply, munitions, food, fuel, all were coming in
by train and trucks and ships through those ports, and
we've been bombing the bridges that connect those to the
interior of the country. And we've been bombing the bridges
around band or a Boss, which is the controlling point
of the forces for the IRGC for the Strait of
(31:36):
Horror moves, and we've isolated that force that's in there
to try to cut them off. So though whither're on
the bune, we've taken away their ability to control the strait.
Their control tower that the Indians India helped them build.
It was really high tech, that big tower you've seen
come down. We initially targeted it and shut the power
off to it, but we didn't take it down. We've
(31:58):
since taken it down. So the more of that we do,
especially target the besieged force and the average you see
and the Army ground forces, the more and sooner we
will get to the end of this, and I don't
think it's going to be a long term conflict. The
President doesn't believe in those I support him too, And
(32:18):
the reason, the main reason I support him is because
he doesn't believe in endless war policy. And he's absolutely right.
But he's trying to end this war, like he's trying
to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. But this
war is about America because these guys went to war
on us when I was seventeen years old and first
put the uniform on in nineteen seventy nine. And it
(32:39):
needs to end, and it needs to end sooner rather
than later. And again, we do need to end the
Ukraine Russian war if we can do that, but this
one is the most dangerous to US. R B.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
M A n e SS dot com. Robmaanus dot com
go there and check out his show. He's the host
of the Rob made his show get the book called
What You Can Do About It? Last question on Iran,
I had a call yesterday to my show, and his
concern was, I think it's a valid concern. How are
our stockpiles. We gave a bunch of our weaponry over
to Ukraine and then that we were making newer stuff.
Now we're actually selling it through NATO and through the EU.
(33:14):
I get that, but we sent a lot of it
over there. Now we've been doing this operation against their
ron since the end of February. Where's the stockpile? We
saw Pete Hecseef yesterday in front of Congress say it's great,
no problems whatsoever.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
What are you getting?
Speaker 5 (33:27):
Yeah, well, let's do a little history lesson here real quick, Joe. Remember,
coming into the first Trump administration, our stockpils are war
reserve material stockpile which all around the world, we keep
munitions and supplies stocked all around the world at different locations.
Had been depleted because of Iraq and Afghanistan pretty severely
(33:50):
except for except for a couple of areas. One is
theater air defense artillery missiles FADS patriot missiles because we
really weren't getting an air thread or a missile thread
and those kind of things, so those were there. But
the problem with that was is that we didn't increase production.
(34:11):
The good news story is that when the Trump administration
did come in, they made an all out effort to
increase production on defensive weapons like what we're talking about,
and that's what keeps making the storages because we shot
We shot about two thirds of our THAD missile capability
early on in Epic Fury, and even before when Israel
(34:32):
was attacking them, when the Iranians were shooting a lot.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
More missiles than they have available today.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
That's why you don't see them shooting at the Israeli
as much because they know the ninety five percent of
are going to get knocked down. So that production was
increased under the Trump administration. So I'm pretty comfortable saying
that we're not in a problem with that because the
Iranians are not firing medium and long range ballistic missiles
(34:58):
at the rates that they We're doing it because they
can't they don't have them available, and when they do
try to, we knock the launcher out and we usually
get the missile knockdown out of the sky. Between us,
the Israelis are our golf state partners that have patriots
and those kind of things. And the other thing we
increase production of in the first Trump administration was Jadam's
(35:19):
joint direct attack munitions. That's the conventional bomb with a
GPS kit strapped to it. We have millions of those,
and that's what we're using today, primarily because we don't
have to use the long range missiles to take down
their air defense system or stealthy missiles that cost a
lot of money that there are very.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
Few numbers of.
Speaker 5 (35:40):
But all of those need to have production rates that
are increasing, and I'm confident that this administration started increasing
them again as soon as they got into office. But
is it a concern. It's always a concern. But I
don't think we're there in a crisis situation at all.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Robins, We're watching this thing unfold. Do you agree with
me that we need to make them surrender doing some
sort of a peace deal. They're n You and I
are about the same age. I remember when they took over.
I remember when they declared war on us in the
early days in nineteen seventy nine. I remember them chanting
death to America. As recently as probably last month. These
people are not going to stop. They're not going to
(36:18):
sign a peace treaty and stick to it. They weren't
going to stick to the JCPOA, no matter how dumb
it was. These people believe there are equal Don't we
need to make them surrender?
Speaker 4 (36:28):
Yes, we do.
Speaker 5 (36:29):
We need to make them capitulate, and there's only one
way to do that is that we continue to increase
the pressure on them every minute of every day. That's
why I think we ought to be doing twenty four
hours a day, seven days a week air operations against
the that we had the ammunitions to be able to
do that.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
It is Colonel Rob Maniz, let's talk about Ukraine? Why
is that war still going on? I think that you
and I agree that this would not have started to
head President Trump in an office. I think Kamala Harris
going to the region five days before they rolled tanks
and actually made this happen. I just think that they
were completely that incompetent in the administration under Biden. All
that said, why is it still going on? It's been
what four years now four and a half years. Why
(37:07):
isn't this thing over yet? And what is it going
to take to end it? Does Russia never stop until
they get the dumbass that they want? Can Ukraine really
win militarily? Where do you want.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
All that Ukraine can't win militarily?
Speaker 5 (37:20):
Now they are being successful, especially since the President Trump
came into office. He unleashed their ability to do things
like shoot storm shadows deep into UH into Russia.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
UH. And he's taking the handcuffs off a lot of
a lot of the longer range conditions and everything.
Speaker 5 (37:36):
So they're getting some successes there and making Russia feel
the pain logistically from that perspective, but go look at
the at the war, the ground maps at the Institute
of War, they're pretty pretty effective, pretty accurate, UH.
Speaker 4 (37:50):
And they're not you know, leaning one way or the other.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
UH.
Speaker 5 (37:54):
And you see that Russia is continually grinding out the
gaining territory in that don Bass region. And I think
unless there's a way that Putin can be made to
feel the pain much more than what they're feeling it today,
he's going to continue to do that until he gets
to the place that he wants to be, and then
he's going to say, okay or finish. Are you ready
(38:14):
to come to a peace agreement? And if there are
any live Ukrainians left that are a fighting age, I
would expect that population is going to be begging for that.
And it's unfortunate, but the conditions that existed at the
beginning of this war still exists today. NATO has expanded
as opposed to US agreeing that we wouldn't expand it.
(38:36):
The Russians said they saw that as a threat before
the war started. They still see it as a threat.
The NATO countries still aren't taking full responsibility for their
own defense. They're still buying fuel from Russia. Even the Ukrainians.
Fifteen percent of the diesel fuel is Russian diesel fuel
because they buy it from the Indians, and the Indians
(38:58):
get the fuel that they refine into the oil. They
were finding the diesel fuel from Russia one hundred percent.
So there's all kinds of contradictions that are still going on.
But the Ukrainians, they don't have the capability or the
society that's big enough to take on Russia the way
they would need to in order to push them out
(39:19):
of the Donbass. So I see it stay in a stalemate,
and I'm praying that President Trump can get those two
guys together and come up with some way to get
them to stop this. But they're because they're they're decimating
generations and generations of young Ukrainians. Not so much on
the Russian side because they have a large enough population
(39:40):
to be able to absorb it much easier, but the
Ukrainian society is being decimated and it's just heartbreaking watch
it when you have those of us that go, this
should never have even started. There was a way to
prevent it, and now we can't get them to stop.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I agree with you wholeheartedly, and I want that to
happen as well. The problem mean as you've got somebody
who's sort of a fake leader, the Zelenski guy, who
has misappropriated probably one hundred billion dollars of our money
that we sent there. But this guy doesn't seem to
be willing to say, yes, Russia should get what is
ethically Russian in that portion of the country, and he
(40:16):
thinks that the rest of the world will continue to
support him forever. I don't want to be involved in
a forever war between Ukraine and Russia. I want this
thing to be over. So what do you say to
the critics who say, if we give Russia anything, what's
this stuff puting to do it anytime he wants to
do it to continue taking land.
Speaker 4 (40:33):
He can't cape take all of Ukraine. Jo, That's what
I say to him. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (40:38):
Look, the people that are out there, especially in the
intelligence communities, both the NATO countries, the usual suspects like
I six and the Germans and those kind of folks
and the US that are saying, well, Russia's just gonna
they're gonna continue and they're gonna roll over Western Europe
or they're gonna take the ball.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
They can't do that, that would bring NATO with then, any
of that, that's stupid, that's a dumb thing.
Speaker 4 (41:01):
Any of that.
Speaker 5 (41:02):
They can't that only can't they do it because of NATO,
But they don't have the capability to do it.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
They they they tried to do.
Speaker 5 (41:09):
The American style shock and awe and take everything just
past Kiev Kiev there and got bogged down because their
capabilities weren't the same. They didn't they didn't think about
the logistics and the speed that they would need to go,
and they fell back on the old Soviet army tactics
and what does that? Grind up the dirt and the
(41:30):
buildings and the gravel with artillery and then move your
tanks and infantry in a little bit at a time.
That's exactly what they're doing and nothing's been able to
stop them yet.
Speaker 4 (41:38):
No drones, no high mars.
Speaker 5 (41:43):
You know, the Ukrainians can't fly in aircraft because they
get shot down and the Russians can attack them at will.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
How important is the technology and the actual research and
development we've gotten from this war As far as drone technology,
it appears that though drones have been more involved in
this day, I'm willing to be wrong on that than
any other war I can remember.
Speaker 5 (42:02):
Well, that's what's given the Ukrainians more life is they've
they've really gone into this and they've got a production
rate of over ten thousand of these disposable drones a month.
Uh at this point. That's one of the things that
we need to learn from this. And we're so heavily
involved at the staff level and the general officer level,
I'm sure we're collecting the information with The big question
(42:25):
is is is our Pentagon acting as rapidly as we
need to and is our industrial base able to react
as rapidly and be able to scale up as we
need to, because we don't have near the amount of
drones and drone technology that we would need if we
got into a shooting war like what Ukraine is in.
(42:48):
And that's beyond shipbuilding and building more aircraft, especially bombers,
that we need to do the drone technology, establishing the
industrial base to build them rapidly in very very large numbers,
the ability to defend ourselves not just static targets. But
(43:10):
if we're going to continue to maintain that America is
the best at maneuver warfare, which means tanks moving and
aircraft supporting in long range bobbers striking strategic targets, and
all the error defenses that go with it, then you
better have a tens of thousands of drones system that
can travel with your maneuver warfare assets, or they're going
(43:32):
to get decimated the way the Russians and Ukrainians assets
have been decimated over the last four years by drones.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
Always amazing information. We'll get his book. It's Colonel Rob manis.
Get the book called What You Can Do About It?
Taking real action against corruption, radicalism and moral decay. They
save America. Check out the Rob Minas Show and Colonel
I can't thank you for finding time today. Let's do
it again very soon.
Speaker 4 (43:53):
You bet, Joe appreciate it. Man, God bless you.
Speaker 1 (43:55):
God bless you. Make sure you subscribe. That's it for
this one. If you like what you see, make sure
you tell a friend. We'll have another one very soon.
It's what many of us assume. But a national security
expert just actually accused Mamdani of siding with the Iranian regime.
It's for Regie Gabrielle. You've got to hear what she's
got to say. What do you think about Mamdanni, this
guy who lied about affordability and got elected as if
he's just a smiling clown and he's going to take
care of everybody in free grocery stores and free buses
and none of that stuff's really happening. But what do
(00:22):
you think about him saying if Benjamin et Yajo comes here,
I think he's a war criminal and the ICC has
a warrant for his arrest. I think he should be
in the Hague and he's trying to figure out what
he can do. What do you think about this guy,
the mayor of New York, thinking that he can arrest
the prime minister of Israel.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Well, Mamdannie has a track record of thinking a lot
of things.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
I'm promising a lot.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Of things, yes, and realizing every single one of them failed.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
So what should he change now?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
He is playing to the base, That's exactly what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
He is playing to that new.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Socialist Communist Democratic voter on TikTok, promising them things they
do not know any better.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
He doesn't even know the law.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
We cannot Arrestaniahu. And also we are not a part
of the Hague. We're not part of the International Court.
So he was arrested and turns him to the Hague.
That's a non starter. But that's what Mam Donny is doing.
This is political theater, playing to his base. The same
way he promised, I'm gonna give you a free rent,
(01:23):
I'm gonna give you free grocery stores, I'm gonna give you.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Free this, free that.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Only together like that and realize none of that works
because it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Work in reality.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
So again he's just continuing to play to his base
because this is what fires up the base of the
Democratic Party. They are driven by hatred, they are driven
by laziness, they are driven by a lack of intellect,
lack of information. They get their news from TikTok.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
What do you expect. It's the blind leading the blind.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Act for America. Dot org is the website. Go there
and check out what Brasheita's doing. And a great folks
you're doing over and Act for America with Mom, Donny.
The interesting thing to me, and nobody wants to point
this out, I'm happy to point it out. He complains
about a genocide in Gaza. Now, the numbers that we're
getting are sixty four or sixty five thousand people have
been killed. But those numbers are Mohammas Hamaskun be lying.
(02:13):
We have no idea how many really died there.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
We also know that could be lying. They are lying
because that's what Hamas.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Does, right.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
I want to compare that to what we know to
have been the dead in Iran, fifty to fifty five
thousand civilians who just wanted to have a little bit
of freedom, little liberty, not have to worry the job everywhere,
not have somebody's thumb on their neck. Fifty thousand plus
were killed in the streets. They were spraying down the
blood off the streets with hoses, and Mamdani doesn't say
(02:42):
anything that's not a genocide, but he thinks what's happening
in Gaza is a genocide. For you, are people smart
enough to realize that he's playing a game, and AOC's
playing a game in this guy said in Michigan that
might be the next senator is just playing a game.
They know they're lying right.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Well, the problem is there do not know any better.
They don't know any better. Again, they are not watching
legitimate news channels that's actually giving them the proper news.
They're getting the news from TikTok, from Instagram, They're getting
their news from social media. They are the people who
voted for the AOC, they are the people who voted
(03:18):
for Mamdani. So they've got a base of voters right
now where they All they care about is emotions. Everything
is driven by emotion. We are angry at the government
that we want free housing. Therefore we're gonna elect anybody
who's gonna give us free housing. We are so angry
at what's happening in Gaza, and therefore we're gonna elect
anybody that hates Israel. They are driven by emotion, they
(03:40):
are driven by anger, and so they don't know any better.
And that's exactly the problem now with the Democratic Party
and the old days, the Democratic Party, at least the voters,
you know, the republic We always have Democrats and Republicans.
They did not agree with each other, but they never
hated each other. They debated ideas and if your friend
will the Democrat and he voted Democrat, you wouldn't cut
(04:03):
them off, or that he wouldn't cut you off because
we don't cut off the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
They cut us off if we vote.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
If they know we even agree with Trump on one
or two things, you know, you're completely You're out of
my life. You're a Nazi, You're support a Nazi, a pedophile.
I don't want to have anything with you. I can
tell you I have lost friendships of over twenty thirty
years because my friends now do not agree with the
fact that I stand strong for national security and with
(04:31):
President Trump, because President Trump is strong in national security.
So this is the emotional immaturity that we are dealing with, Joe.
So we're dealing with emotionally immature block of voters who
are young, who feel they can change the world, who
feel they're gonna do socialism and this time it's gonna
(04:51):
work because they know how to do it better than
anybody else that write it before them, because they're very special,
you know. And so this is Madani is appealing with,
and this is who the Bernie Sanders.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Is appealing to. And look at that leadership at the
House in Congress.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
They know that's exactly why they went to Bernie Sanders,
trying to appeal to him to stay out of this
upcoming the term election, not realizing Bernie Sanders has more
influence on the Democratic voter right now across the nation,
and the youth and more is in a connection with
the Democratic voter than those who are sitting in Congress
(05:29):
right now. This is how far the party has shifted.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, but by the way, Brigite Gabrielle, national security expert,
go to Act for America dot org. Act for America
dot org. There's a duopoly here when it comes to
these Islamis that are taking big, big chairs in big seats.
They don't really like Bernie Sanders, they don't really like AOC,
they don't really like LGBTQXYZ, they don't really like you
know what they say that they like, But they're saying
(05:53):
the things that will get them in the positions. I'll
give you the example of Hamtramck, Michigan or Dearborn, Michigan,
where we just want we want everybody to be affordable,
we want to make it a better city. Now you
get the call to prayer five times a day audibly
throughout these cities, You've got Mamdanni who is putting people
in positions that are gay or lesbian or whatever. You know,
he doesn't really like them. So what's the game here?
(06:15):
Because you know that he is a guy who is
the same sort of Muslim that the theocracy is in Iran.
Mamdannie agrees with they're on in the theocracy, So he
can't possibly be this guy he's pretending he is. How
does he get from where he's pretending to be to
who he wants to be? Because that's the goal, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Victory is the goal, okay, And it doesn't matter how
long it takes and.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
What they have to do. The end goal is victory.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Now you have to use a lot of useful idiots
along the way to get to the end goal.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
And that's exactly what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Remember, Islam has a track record of over sixteen hundred years.
America is an agent of a two hundred and fifty years.
He's he's a seventeen year old. So those Islamists are
looking at the West and thinking, ah, we can walk
all over these people.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
We've done it before and we're gonna do it again.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Remember Islam by the sixteen hundreds, covered more of the
Earth's surface than the Islamic that the Roman Empire did.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
That it speak. How do you think Islam got to China?
How do you think Islam.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Got to India? How do you think Islam got to Spain?
How do you think Islam got to Europe? And we're
talking back. Remember they were stopped at the gates of
Vienna or nine to eleven, and that's why Osama bin
Laden chose that date. Now, how do you think they
ended up from Saudi Arabia from the heart of them
at least spreading all across the globe. They spread across
(07:41):
the globe using two things jihad and israel migration. And
that's exactly what they are doing. And they've got a
track record of knowing exactly what the end result is
going to be. It's just a matter of time. The
problem is our side is ignorant, uninformed, do not care
about learning about history, do not like history, and they
(08:03):
are driven by emotions today because of the influence of
social media. Now remember everybody in the Arabic world does
not have social media.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Like the United States.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
So you've got people, for example, kids in Jordan thirteen
fourteen years old. Do you think they are on social
media the way American kids are.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Of course not.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I know they're not because I come from that part
of the world. I know the culture, and so they are.
Now the Islamists are coming to the West and all
they need is enough vote to.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Get them elected. And that's exactly why care.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
The Council and American Islamic Relations have become a very
organized and lethal voting organizing machine because they are a
political organization. They are mobilizing the vote in mosques, they
are mobilizing the votes through Islamic institution. They are coordinating
with other Islamic organizations throughout the country and making sure
(08:56):
they organize communities to come out, not just vote, but
run their own candidates from their own mosques and going
out and supporting them until victory. While at the same
time our side sits at home. You've got the Christians
who say, well, I'm not gonna vote. I'm just gonna pray.
I'm gonna pray for our nation, I'm gonna read my Bible,
(09:18):
but I do not want to go out and vote.
You've got the regular people, the lay you know, maybe conservative,
maybe Republicans, Well, you know, I don't like candidates so
and so because I don't like him or her, I'm
not gonna go out and vote. We are so divided
on our side, Joe, that we better get their our
act together by the midterm and beyond, because if we
(09:41):
don't get our act together, just what's what's gonna happen
to America ten years from now? We are already seeing
the writing on the wall. And that's why I urge
people to go to Act for America.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Dot or great now.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Go to Act for America dot or join us, take
action on our action campaign and click on act out
and make sure you call your senators to pass the
Save America Act. Whatever you have to do, whatever they
have to do.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Click on those campaigns.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
We give you their phone number, We give you an
email already pre written to them. We want you engaged
so we can notify you about bills coming down for
a vote to secure our nation. We better get organized
on our site and we better be effective in our activism.
Listening to talk radio is not activism. Watching television is
not activism. That's entertainment. Taking action, calling your electri officials,
(10:32):
sending an email, that's how you impact policy.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Act for America dot organs FO or America dot Org
act for America dot organ always listen to talk radio,
but you're right, you have to take action as well.
It is Brigite, Gabrielle Brigitta, as a national security expert,
let me ask you something. If we have said Antifa
is a domestic terrorist organization, if we have said Care
has ties to Islamists and to possible terror organizations, why
(10:56):
haven't we done anything about it yet? Why are they
still allowed to exist? Why wouldn't we going to rest
everybody in Antifa and kick Care out?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Because our elector officials need to hear from the base
in order to do the right thing. Because remember, the
left is very mobilized, and they not only call their
elector officials and our elector officials bombard them.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
And they're not only.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Called one time and say, oh, I ready called my
electric official. They call every single day or three times
a week minimum.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Our side doesn't do that.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
So our side when they step forward and say, okay,
we're going to introduce a bill to bed the Muslim
Brotherhood or designate CARE as an Islamic organization as a
domestic terrorist organization, they aren't here from the base because
our side thinks, oh, okay, my Republican leaders, of course
they're going to vote for that, or maybe they.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Will call once once and that's it.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
But if a bill like this is introduced in Congress,
which it is because we are we have again. If
you go to Actfromerica dot org and click on act
Now Act Now National, you'll see our national to designate
care on the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organizations, just
like what.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
We did in Florida and then Texas. You know we're
able to put us in two states.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
We introduced it also in Arizona, and so we want
to make sure people are watching us right now on
the internet. Go to our website, click on act now
on our Act now campaigns and take action on these campaigns.
Our elected officials need to hear from you. You can
call them every single day. You can send them an
email every single day, not once every single day. They say,
(12:33):
squeaky wheel gets the oil. The Democrats are squeaking. Our
side is praying. You can pray, but you better start
squeaking as well.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Courage is in.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Something that you discover when life is easy. In fact,
is revealed when standing for your faith comes with a cost.
We all know what happened to my friend Charlie Kirk.
He'd been in my show six times. He was somebody
they texted back and forth with, and he was somebody
that we all learned from, somebody who really still for
what he believed in. That's what makes Charlie Kirk American
Martyr such a powerful story that I want you to
(13:06):
make sure you watch him, have your kids watch it too.
It's not just about politics. It's about a man whose
faith shaped every decision he made, who loved his family,
invested in the next generation, in fact, chose conviction over comfort.
It asks the question every Christian should consider, what am
I willing to stand for? Really? In a world that
constantly pressures believers that say quiet, Charlie's story reminds us
(13:29):
that following Christ has always required boldness, humility, and unwavering faith.
His legacy isn't about faith, It's about faithfulness, and he
stood for that every day of his life.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
If you're looking for.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
A story that will challenge and encourage you to live
at your own calling with courage, you need to see this.
Go right now to angel dot com, slash pegs, angel
dot com, slash PAGs. Become an Angel Guild member watch
Charlie Kirk, American martyr, and help bring more stories of faith, courage,
and conviction to audiences worldwide. Start squeaking. It is an
(14:03):
act for America. Dot Organs, Brigee Gabrielle, let me ask
you something. Can can our government for even a second,
trust that the theocracy in Iran is going to be
dealing with a fair, fair minded hand. Are they ever
going to be telling us the truth? I don't believe them.
Is our government believing them? Or is there something else
going on here that I'm not saying?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Well, I think President Trump realized the very valuable realization
that you cannot negotiate with the Iranians. Because you may
have the good heart, you may have the goodwill, you
may want to strike and good faith a peace deal
with them. With the Iranians, they don't have the same
good intentions as we do. President Trump realized after this
(14:42):
memorandum of understanding that JD. Vance and Jared Kushner got
him to believing that, Oh, it's going to work. Because
we can talk to them about prosperity and money, We're
gonna be able to bring them into the world. They're
going to be a part of the world markets, and
they're gonna be able to prosper as if the Iranians
good care less about America and Israel, the swine eating wine,
(15:06):
drinking to a cursed country by Allah. And so the
Iranians negotiated knowing that they are dragging the American as
far as they can close to the midterm, thinking maybe
President Trump is gonna came President Trump learned at this point,
I believe that you cannot trust the Iranians. They're not
going to negotiate in good faith. He already learned that lesson.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I gotta stop you, Briginia. I gotta stop you because
I love you, your your brain. Let me ask you something.
When I saw number six that said they got three
hundred billion dollars, When I saw number seven that said
all those sanctions will be lifted or lifted, And then
when I saw their their pr guy come out the
next day saying we beat two nuclear powers in Israel
and America and now we're a superpower. Maybe I'm the idiot.
(15:50):
If I'm in the White House at that point, I
say forget it. We're blowing you off the map. Because
at that point they told the world everything that just
happened benefited us, and we beat.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Them, Yes I did.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Because they want the PR victory, just like Hamas want
the PR victory against Israel and the West.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
We think victory is defeating them militarily.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Remember, these people could care less about how many missiles
you destroy, whether you destroyed your nuclear reactor. They're gonna
outrun you because they know that in America there's an
election every four years. All they have to do is
be able to survive for another two years until Trump
is out of office. And that was Hamas's strategy with Israel.
As long as we are alive. Look, Israel beat us
(16:33):
down for two years. They were not able to kill
us or get us out. We are still here. We
outlived Israeli bombardment.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Way, why can't we get them out? Regie, why can't
we get them out? We took out the first three
levels of the theocracy. But from one of them, and
correct me if I'm wrong. You know more than me.
And from what I understand, the iro GC doesn't even
listen to the theocracy. They do anything they want. Is
that true?
Speaker 3 (16:53):
That's right, Yes, that's true.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
So how do you beat them?
Speaker 2 (16:57):
The only way you're gonna beat them is you're gonna
keep beating them and beating them and beating them and
bombing them and then have a regime change, and then
you're going to have the suicide bombers.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
They're like cancer and you have to keep fighting.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
You have to go in and do surgery until you
get all the cancer out. We need to go in
and take carg Island because we need to suffocate them
at every level. I know President Trump doesn't want to
hurt the people of Iran, but the people of Iran
are already hurting. Every single family has been affected by
the loss of the forty to fifty thousand people that
were massacred by the Iranian regime, and so every family
(17:33):
in Iran has been affected, has either lost a loved
one directly or a family member by extension. So they
are hurting and they do not want this regime. They
were willing to give up their lives to fight this regime.
The regime is not that a change until we change
the leadership and kill them all and bring them to
their knees, because in their mind, they are fighting a
(17:54):
spiritual battle and Allah is on their side, and Allah
is protecting them because look, after all the bombardment that
America did to them. They are still alive and they
are still able to launch missiles against us. But again,
the problem why they are able to launch missiles is
because we stopped two.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
Weeks short of eliminating them.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
We know, by the time we stopped the bombardment ninety
days ago, we knew that they still had fifteen hundred
missiles and about one hundred and fifty to one hundred
and seventy five missile launchers.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
We knew that, we.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Knew it's gonna take us two more weeks to finish
all that. But then the that you know, our friends
in the Arabic world, we're talking to President Trump, please
slow down. We are worried they're gonna kill us, They're
gonna attack us. Let's give negotiations place. And what did
the Iranians do? Start digging out their missiles and this
is exactly how we lose like what they attacked Jordan
(18:49):
and we lost our members in Jordan.
Speaker 1 (18:52):

Speaker 3 (19:35):
We made it stupid proof. Anybody can do it.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I even I can do it. So there you go.
It is Brigit Gabrielle Cherwell and over at act for
America dot org. My great friend BRIGII just laid out
the accusation and told us what's actually going on inside
the borders of the United States. Now, Colonel Rob Maynis
is going to join us with the hard military evidence
on what that regime actually does. This is what we're
getting from the administration that I'm a huge supporter. I'm
(20:00):
a huge supporter of President Trump interviewed him fifteen times.
Loved the Trump family, But is the straight opener closed?
I have no idea. Today it's open, tomorrow it's closed.
We control it, the Iranians control it. It's international waters.
Iran says that it's not. Did we decimate their their
air defense system? Did we really decimate their navy? If so,
how are they attacking places like Bahrain? I don't know so, Colonel,
(20:23):
I'm not being overly skeptical. I'm asking questions. I think
people that love this president and this administration, you just
want answers to what can you tell us about what's
going on in Iran right now? As far as you know.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Let's start with the Strait of Horbeuz.
Speaker 5 (20:38):
Iran has not been able to have any control over
the strait other than in people's minds for a very.
Speaker 4 (20:46):
Very long time.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Now.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
We have eliminated their.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
Capability to do anything other than do harassing fire.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Quite honestly, Joe.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
I mean, and it's going to happen as long as
they continue to be intransigent and not acknowledged that the
Strait of Horror moves is international waters and that the
commercial shipping out there is civilian shipping, and that they
not only do not have control, they will not have
control over that international waterway. The United States mission to
(21:16):
prevent that from happening goes all the way back to
George Washington.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Man. Look, the only ship.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
Picture I have on my wall in my office is
a print of the USS Constitution, and it's titled.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Payment and Iron.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
It's leading the American fleet that was created to put
the Islamis Barbary pirates back in their place because they
were attacking American commercial shipping in international waters, the same
thing the Iranian Islamists are doing.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
And that's where the United States is coming from.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
The President's exactly right to even without epic fury, the
President is exactly right to challenge them on this if
they especially if they were to harm US commercial shipping.
And I think they have taken a few shots at
those over the years, and especially back in the day,
you know, the eighties and that kind of era, they
(22:06):
were striking our commercial shipping quite frequently. But no, they
do not control the street. As a matter of fact,
every minute that goes by, they have less control over
anything in their country, even let alone over the Strait
of Hormoes.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Now Is it some people's minds that the.
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Ship captains may be afraid to go through there those
kind of things. Absolutely, is it. Is it preventing shipping
from being at normal levels, Yeah, it is. But we're
now back to blockading the Iranians, so they're not getting
the half a billion dollars in oil revenue that they
were getting for a very short period of time when
we agreed to wave it, wave the sanctions on that
(22:47):
and remove the blockade because they did what they said
they would do on the MoU once and then they
went crazy and started shooting at people again and have
even killed some civilian sailors quite frankly. And now the
President has has pushed the throttle back up and we're
doing full air tasking orders every single night. I'd like
to see it go to twenty four hours a day,
(23:07):
seven days a week. Get the Israeli Air Force back involved,
if they're not involved already.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
I'm not sure if they are.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
I've heard some rumblings today that they're about to start
conducting operations with us again, because honestly, we haven't been
attacking the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps enough. At the individual
commander level, we're attacking their systems, their communications, their radars.
You mentioned, we've taken down their air defense system to
(23:37):
the point where we can range that country at will
with our military aircraft, and they're not able to take
a shot at them unless somebody gets puts themselves down
in an envelope where they've got a shoulder fired missile
or some other small capability that they may still have
hidden somewhere, but the big system is down all the time.
(23:58):
They're not able to defend them themselves. They have no
air force left, but they do have a ground force left,
and we haven't really been targeting that enough.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
And I'm not talking about.
Speaker 5 (24:08):
The tanks and the trucks and the artillery pieces that stuff. Yes,
we have been, but we need to focus on the
forces themselves and the commanders themselves, because as we have
blockaded them and prevented them from getting revenue, they're not
able to pay their people. And if they're not able
to pay their people, those people's families are telling them, hey,
(24:30):
what are you doing? Is this really worth this? We're
starving here, we don't have enough water, we can't eat.
You know, that's the kind of warfare that needs to
occur and is occurring now again because they messed up
on the attempt to get a piece deal with them,
and I think the President should continue until one of
(24:51):
two things happens.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
We've killed enough of the.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
IRGC commanders to where the Iranian people can rise up
on their own and take the country back.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
That's what really needs to happen.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
Or we kill enough the Iranian commanders that they ultimately
capitulate and the Iranian people take over peacefully, and then
we can go in peacefully and do things like get
the enriched uranium out, disassemble their capability of creating the
rich geranium and those kind of things, and we end
up with in Iran it's a peaceful trading partner, a
(25:25):
friend and a neighbor that's not attacking even the people
that have tried.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
To help them. They've fired missiles at countries that have
been their ally. I know that makes no sense, and
that's exactly right. It makes no sense.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
That's why the President my recommendation, if I had the
opportunity to speak with and would be to continue this.
Actually ramp it up. Go twenty four hours a day,
seven days a week. You have the capability to do it.
That israelis will help us do it, and they have
some great capabilities that we're not taking advantage over it.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
If you're already on a Medicare plan, you did your
due diligencia. You think that you chose everything correctly, might
not have and it's not your fault. There are tens
of thousands of planes out there. You need an advisor,
and the one I trust is Chapter. Askchapter dot org,
slash PAGs is the website. Even a plan that looks
solid on paper can actually be wrong and have gaps
in there. And Chapter is the organization that's going to
(26:16):
go through in less than twenty minutes on the phone
to find out if you're on the right plane. By
the way, if you are on the right plane, they'll
tell you a lot of people listening to my program
or watching the show, they are now getting hold of Chapter.
And one caller was scared about a worst case scenario,
a major hospital stay, a long fight, was something serious.
His Chapter advisor walked him through everything and his actual
(26:37):
plan showed him that once he hit his deductible, he
was covered one hundred percent no matter what came next.
Not a guess, not a maybe, just real relief and
listen to this. On average, those who are using Chapter
are saving up to eleven hundred dollars every single year.
That's real money that you can save. And if you're
on the right plane, as I said, you gotta stay
on the right plan because Chapter is gonna say, hey,
(26:58):
good news, you're on the right plane. Get hold a
Chapter right now. It's free. The call is under twenty minutes.
Set it up at ask Chapter dot org, slash PAGs.
Ask Chapter dot org slash PAGs right now. It's the
host of the Robminis Show, and in fact it is
Colonel Robminis, retired to a US Air Force. Go to
robmanus dot com. Get his book What you Can Do
About It, Taking real Action against corruption, radicalism and moral
(27:21):
decay to save America. The IRGC, you just sort of
explained this, but I want to I want to pair
this down even more. The IRGC is not listening to
the theocracy. In my opinion, it's not like the executive
branch here where you've got a commander in chief that
says this is what you do. I think the theocracy.
Although I think they're lying it was a ruse to
maybe buy some time. I think they did want to
cease fire for a while. I don't think the IRGC
(27:43):
listened to it. I think the IRGC said, don't have
a deal with you. Maybe the theocracy does the eye
it told it us. I don't. We'll do whatever we want.
So what you just said is really really important. How
can you go and take out not only just the
leadership of the IRGC, but killing up of the soldiers
because they're in uniform. I think we know where they are.
Why don't we just kill them as many as we can?
And I don't mean with ground troops. I mean with
(28:04):
the air supremacy that we have, and with our boats,
our ships off the shore, killing up of the ira
GC to where the people can say, all right, fifty
thousand died in the street trying to get some freedom
and liberty. But if we get fifty thousand more, or
one hundred thousand or a million, we might be able
to take these guys. Why aren't we focusing on the
IRGC or are we we just don't know about it?
Speaker 5 (28:24):
Well, we are, but we're focusing on capabilities and removing
capabilities like you know, their artillery, their rockets, their missiles,
their launchers, their resources, the power systems that provide power
to systems, their communications systems, some of their leaders early on,
(28:45):
especially as the President has said he's killed down to
he's on the third layer of commanders that he's killed.
But the Israelis were helping us do that early in
epic fury. And I haven't seen any indication that we're
back to aggressively argating them as much as as we were.
And we need to do that, but we need to
(29:05):
target the men in the forces that those commanders command,
exactly right. And I understand there's probably people advising this
president that say, look, we want them to be able
to defend themselves.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
The army is not really the i er GC.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
There's a whole mixture of the of nuances with this organization.
That's that's really And you you hit on the dirty
little secret. The dirty little secret, Joe is the IERGC
has always controlled the country. The theocracy is just a facade,
all right, is always in control.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
They've always been in control of that country.
Speaker 5 (29:42):
Uh, the theocracy is there, the parliament is there, but
it's just a facade. If you look at the president,
he was an IRGC member before the IERGC insisted on
having Commandy the son who has not been seen. I'm
not sure if he's still alive or not, right, but
they insisted having him because they knew they could control
roll him because they could they knew him through his
(30:02):
dad's work and everything, and they know they can control them,
and they are controlling it.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
So it's really about the I ergy.
Speaker 5 (30:08):
See. But there's another aspect of the I ergy you
see a lot of people don't understand. It's called the besiege.
The besiege are the internal forces that keep the population
under control. They're the ones that you've seen in the
videos shooting people in the streets control them, and early
on the Israelis were attacking them very, very effectively. They
couldn't even set up a checkpoint in a city in
(30:31):
the open without a drone showing up and dropping bombs
on them. They started putting checkpoints in under overpasses and
in tunnels and everything so that they could continue to
try to control the population. We need to target that
force extensively more than we have been in the past,
uh uh, and continue to take out their capabilities. When
(30:51):
they reconstitute a capability, we should take it away from
a again. All the while keep this blockada. We have
been bombed some bridges that we had left on the table.
And these bridges are important, like up in the northern
part of the country. They were bridges coming from China
and coming from the area that Russia has access to
and has the port on the Caspian Sea that they
(31:14):
were offloading resupply, munitions, food, fuel, all were coming in
by train and trucks and ships through those ports, and
we've been bombing the bridges that connect those to the
interior of the country. And we've been bombing the bridges
around band or a Boss, which is the controlling point
of the forces for the IRGC for the Strait of
(31:36):
Horror moves, and we've isolated that force that's in there
to try to cut them off. So though whither're on
the bune, we've taken away their ability to control the strait.
Their control tower that the Indians India helped them build.
It was really high tech, that big tower you've seen
come down. We initially targeted it and shut the power
off to it, but we didn't take it down. We've
(31:58):
since taken it down. So the more of that we do,
especially target the besieged force and the average you see
and the Army ground forces, the more and sooner we
will get to the end of this, and I don't
think it's going to be a long term conflict. The
President doesn't believe in those I support him too, And
(32:18):
the reason, the main reason I support him is because
he doesn't believe in endless war policy. And he's absolutely right.
But he's trying to end this war, like he's trying
to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. But this
war is about America because these guys went to war
on us when I was seventeen years old and first
put the uniform on in nineteen seventy nine. And it
(32:39):
needs to end, and it needs to end sooner rather
than later. And again, we do need to end the
Ukraine Russian war if we can do that, but this
one is the most dangerous to US. R B.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
M A n e SS dot com. Robmaanus dot com
go there and check out his show. He's the host
of the Rob made his show get the book called
What You Can Do About It? Last question on Iran,
I had a call yesterday to my show, and his
concern was, I think it's a valid concern. How are
our stockpiles. We gave a bunch of our weaponry over
to Ukraine and then that we were making newer stuff.
Now we're actually selling it through NATO and through the EU.
(33:14):
I get that, but we sent a lot of it
over there. Now we've been doing this operation against their
ron since the end of February. Where's the stockpile? We
saw Pete Hecseef yesterday in front of Congress say it's great,
no problems whatsoever.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
What are you getting?
Speaker 5 (33:27):
Yeah, well, let's do a little history lesson here real quick, Joe. Remember,
coming into the first Trump administration, our stockpils are war
reserve material stockpile which all around the world, we keep
munitions and supplies stocked all around the world at different locations.
Had been depleted because of Iraq and Afghanistan pretty severely
(33:50):
except for except for a couple of areas. One is
theater air defense artillery missiles FADS patriot missiles because we
really weren't getting an air thread or a missile thread
and those kind of things, so those were there. But
the problem with that was is that we didn't increase production.
(34:11):
The good news story is that when the Trump administration
did come in, they made an all out effort to
increase production on defensive weapons like what we're talking about,
and that's what keeps making the storages because we shot
We shot about two thirds of our THAD missile capability
early on in Epic Fury, and even before when Israel
(34:32):
was attacking them, when the Iranians were shooting a lot.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
More missiles than they have available today.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
That's why you don't see them shooting at the Israeli
as much because they know the ninety five percent of
are going to get knocked down. So that production was
increased under the Trump administration. So I'm pretty comfortable saying
that we're not in a problem with that because the
Iranians are not firing medium and long range ballistic missiles
(34:58):
at the rates that they We're doing it because they
can't they don't have them available, and when they do
try to, we knock the launcher out and we usually
get the missile knockdown out of the sky. Between us,
the Israelis are our golf state partners that have patriots
and those kind of things. And the other thing we
increase production of in the first Trump administration was Jadam's
(35:19):
joint direct attack munitions. That's the conventional bomb with a
GPS kit strapped to it. We have millions of those,
and that's what we're using today, primarily because we don't
have to use the long range missiles to take down
their air defense system or stealthy missiles that cost a
lot of money that there are very.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
Few numbers of.
Speaker 5 (35:40):
But all of those need to have production rates that
are increasing, and I'm confident that this administration started increasing
them again as soon as they got into office. But
is it a concern. It's always a concern. But I
don't think we're there in a crisis situation at all.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Robins, We're watching this thing unfold. Do you agree with
me that we need to make them surrender doing some
sort of a peace deal. They're n You and I
are about the same age. I remember when they took over.
I remember when they declared war on us in the
early days in nineteen seventy nine. I remember them chanting
death to America. As recently as probably last month. These
people are not going to stop. They're not going to
(36:18):
sign a peace treaty and stick to it. They weren't
going to stick to the JCPOA, no matter how dumb
it was. These people believe there are equal Don't we
need to make them surrender?
Speaker 4 (36:28):
Yes, we do.
Speaker 5 (36:29):
We need to make them capitulate, and there's only one
way to do that is that we continue to increase
the pressure on them every minute of every day. That's
why I think we ought to be doing twenty four
hours a day, seven days a week air operations against
the that we had the ammunitions to be able to
do that.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
It is Colonel Rob Maniz, let's talk about Ukraine? Why
is that war still going on? I think that you
and I agree that this would not have started to
head President Trump in an office. I think Kamala Harris
going to the region five days before they rolled tanks
and actually made this happen. I just think that they
were completely that incompetent in the administration under Biden. All
that said, why is it still going on? It's been
what four years now four and a half years. Why
(37:07):
isn't this thing over yet? And what is it going
to take to end it? Does Russia never stop until
they get the dumbass that they want? Can Ukraine really
win militarily? Where do you want.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
All that Ukraine can't win militarily?
Speaker 5 (37:20):
Now they are being successful, especially since the President Trump
came into office. He unleashed their ability to do things
like shoot storm shadows deep into UH into Russia.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
UH. And he's taking the handcuffs off a lot of
a lot of the longer range conditions and everything.
Speaker 5 (37:36):
So they're getting some successes there and making Russia feel
the pain logistically from that perspective, but go look at
the at the war, the ground maps at the Institute
of War, they're pretty pretty effective, pretty accurate, UH.
Speaker 4 (37:50):
And they're not you know, leaning one way or the other.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
UH.
Speaker 5 (37:54):
And you see that Russia is continually grinding out the
gaining territory in that don Bass region. And I think
unless there's a way that Putin can be made to
feel the pain much more than what they're feeling it today,
he's going to continue to do that until he gets
to the place that he wants to be, and then
he's going to say, okay or finish. Are you ready
(38:14):
to come to a peace agreement? And if there are
any live Ukrainians left that are a fighting age, I
would expect that population is going to be begging for that.
And it's unfortunate, but the conditions that existed at the
beginning of this war still exists today. NATO has expanded
as opposed to US agreeing that we wouldn't expand it.
(38:36):
The Russians said they saw that as a threat before
the war started. They still see it as a threat.
The NATO countries still aren't taking full responsibility for their
own defense. They're still buying fuel from Russia. Even the Ukrainians.
Fifteen percent of the diesel fuel is Russian diesel fuel
because they buy it from the Indians, and the Indians
(38:58):
get the fuel that they refine into the oil. They
were finding the diesel fuel from Russia one hundred percent.
So there's all kinds of contradictions that are still going on.
But the Ukrainians, they don't have the capability or the
society that's big enough to take on Russia the way
they would need to in order to push them out
(39:19):
of the Donbass. So I see it stay in a stalemate,
and I'm praying that President Trump can get those two
guys together and come up with some way to get
them to stop this. But they're because they're they're decimating
generations and generations of young Ukrainians. Not so much on
the Russian side because they have a large enough population
(39:40):
to be able to absorb it much easier, but the
Ukrainian society is being decimated and it's just heartbreaking watch
it when you have those of us that go, this
should never have even started. There was a way to
prevent it, and now we can't get them to stop.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I agree with you wholeheartedly, and I want that to
happen as well. The problem mean as you've got somebody
who's sort of a fake leader, the Zelenski guy, who
has misappropriated probably one hundred billion dollars of our money
that we sent there. But this guy doesn't seem to
be willing to say, yes, Russia should get what is
ethically Russian in that portion of the country, and he
(40:16):
thinks that the rest of the world will continue to
support him forever. I don't want to be involved in
a forever war between Ukraine and Russia. I want this
thing to be over. So what do you say to
the critics who say, if we give Russia anything, what's
this stuff puting to do it anytime he wants to
do it to continue taking land.
Speaker 4 (40:33):
He can't cape take all of Ukraine. Jo, That's what
I say to him. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (40:38):
Look, the people that are out there, especially in the
intelligence communities, both the NATO countries, the usual suspects like
I six and the Germans and those kind of folks
and the US that are saying, well, Russia's just gonna
they're gonna continue and they're gonna roll over Western Europe
or they're gonna take the ball.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
They can't do that, that would bring NATO with then, any
of that, that's stupid, that's a dumb thing.
Speaker 4 (41:01):
Any of that.
Speaker 5 (41:02):
They can't that only can't they do it because of NATO,
But they don't have the capability to do it.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
They they they tried to do.
Speaker 5 (41:09):
The American style shock and awe and take everything just
past Kiev Kiev there and got bogged down because their
capabilities weren't the same. They didn't they didn't think about
the logistics and the speed that they would need to go,
and they fell back on the old Soviet army tactics
and what does that? Grind up the dirt and the
(41:30):
buildings and the gravel with artillery and then move your
tanks and infantry in a little bit at a time.
That's exactly what they're doing and nothing's been able to
stop them yet.
Speaker 4 (41:38):
No drones, no high mars.
Speaker 5 (41:43):
You know, the Ukrainians can't fly in aircraft because they
get shot down and the Russians can attack them at will.
Speaker 1 (41:50):
How important is the technology and the actual research and
development we've gotten from this war As far as drone technology,
it appears that though drones have been more involved in
this day, I'm willing to be wrong on that than
any other war I can remember.
Speaker 5 (42:02):
Well, that's what's given the Ukrainians more life is they've
they've really gone into this and they've got a production
rate of over ten thousand of these disposable drones a month.
Uh at this point. That's one of the things that
we need to learn from this. And we're so heavily
involved at the staff level and the general officer level,
I'm sure we're collecting the information with The big question
(42:25):
is is is our Pentagon acting as rapidly as we
need to and is our industrial base able to react
as rapidly and be able to scale up as we
need to, because we don't have near the amount of
drones and drone technology that we would need if we
got into a shooting war like what Ukraine is in.
(42:48):
And that's beyond shipbuilding and building more aircraft, especially bombers,
that we need to do the drone technology, establishing the
industrial base to build them rapidly in very very large numbers,
the ability to defend ourselves not just static targets. But
(43:10):
if we're going to continue to maintain that America is
the best at maneuver warfare, which means tanks moving and
aircraft supporting in long range bobbers striking strategic targets, and
all the error defenses that go with it, then you
better have a tens of thousands of drones system that
can travel with your maneuver warfare assets, or they're going
(43:32):
to get decimated the way the Russians and Ukrainians assets
have been decimated over the last four years by drones.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
Always amazing information. We'll get his book. It's Colonel Rob manis.
