Speaker 1 (00:00):
Five fifty two, now here in Houston's Morning News. So
will there be violence post election? Are we how concerned?
Are we How prepared are we to handle it? If
we do? I think it depends. You know, I hate
to say this, but I think it depends very much
on who's generating the violence. As far as how we
handle it, We've seen in the past how we handle
violence from the left. We just basically arrest them and
(00:22):
let them back out again, no charges. FBI Special Agent
and Navy Seal Jonathan Gilliam joins us. Welcome to the show.
What are you expecting, Jonathan, as a result of this election.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Well, I think it's as you were just pointing out,
we know what could happen if the left wins, as
Harris wins. What type of violence to expect. I mean,
we've seen this before. When the lest gets their way,
they react, overreact to everything that the right does, and
they project things onto the right that they typically do.
(01:00):
Think that every all the rhetoric that they've been using
over the past month, and it's gotten worse over the
past week a few weeks, is that is what they'll do,
is what they could potentially do. And so I think
if they lose. That is where the potential lies for
them to carry out what they accused the right of
(01:22):
potentially doing. So. I think there's a possibility for in
some of the extreme places for riots to break out.
I know when the last election happened, presidential election happened
four years ago, there was an article out and I
believe it was The New Yorker where the Democrat Machine
(01:44):
many from the Democrat machine we're talking about how they
could plan a rally, a protest, or a party anywhere
in the nation within two hours. And so they had
planned on protesting Trump if he won last time, and
then they turned that into a party in Philadelphia and
(02:05):
had this big party in the street. So the potential
wise there for violence post election. But I'll even go
a little further to say that if the polls start
looking bad and they don't have the mail in ballots
that they did last time, you could start to see
(02:25):
some violence happen before the polls even shut. If it's
on the left. As far as the right guys goes,
I just don't I don't see the violence happening particularly
anywhere in any any particular location because you just don't
typically have that organization from the right that you do
(02:47):
you see on the left which is completely on the
top down with big money thunders and donors, politicians that
back them, and politicians.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
That you I mean, they've already got They've got they
got the anarchists, and they've got Antifa, and they've got
the vestiges. What's left to blm And you know, they've
already done their dry runs. Or I wouldn't call them
dry runs because they can look a look at all
the damage that was caused, I mean, the whole George
Floyd riots and things. But I'm wondering, we keep seating
(03:17):
everyone's the narratives, so to speak, everyone's prepared for everyone.
Why do we just accept that there could be violence,
there will be violence. Why do we just accept that
we have to have months of election voting, we have
to have weeks and weeks of counting. We can't trust
our polls. Why is it that the people are just
so inured to this because they keep telling us, well,
(03:39):
this could happen, and this could happen, And why do
we the people accept the fact that this is how
our government is run?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Well, because that's the way it is in an aristocracy,
you know, you have, you have these rich majority of people,
Let's be honest, majority of people that are in there
that are running this nation come from wealthy families. Most
of them were never in the military, and so they
have or law enforcement or any other service where they
(04:10):
had to actually be broken down and then build back up,
so they understand how command and control works, how true
leadership works, and how you're a leader at any level
that you're at. So you take that off the board,
and what you have is a group of people who
have education, but they have no experience. And so what
(04:34):
they do when they come in is they become politicians
and they spout off a lot of word salads, but
they really have no plan. I think you can see
by what you just said. Overall, every year there's no plan.
Every four years, there's no plan. Every two years, there's
no plan, because that's not the way non operators work.
(04:56):
That's what the way politicians work.
