Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome to Veronica Live. And I'm here with my wingman,
John Salik, and I had to have Oh he's my brother,
my Air Force brother. We used to host our show
together for a long time. I always have him on
and I want to welcome back retired Lieutenant Colonel Don Arius.
And he is always on Fox News because his brother

(00:21):
Adam Arius was killed in nine to eleven, so we
always have to talk nine to eleven in politics. Don
welcome back to Veronica Live. My brother.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Hey, Veronica, good to be with you again.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Well, you were just on Fox News because lovely President
Biden before he leaves office, he is just like, oh gosh,
kicking us in the ass on all the way out
the door. So I tell us what happened and why
you were on.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
Cues against kicking us in the ass the wrong description,
kicking it somewhere else.

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
All right, you all correct me? Go ahead?

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Don We all know that Biden isn't making any of
these decisions, all right, So let's ourselves from that notion
that he's doing any thinking or even capable of linear
thought at this point. What we do know, though, is
that he surrounded himself with a bunch of left wing
activists who actually run the country for him. So he's

(01:22):
he's just he's just signing stuff. And his latest trick
is to release eleven of these of these terrorists, unrepentant terrorists,
to Oman Uh and these things. Now these are Somali's
right and right next door to Somalia is Oman and

(01:42):
Oman is our ally, I guess through the air quotes ally,
And they're supposed to be deterrorasting these guys, you know
that they're supposed to be rehabilitating them and monitoring them
on so they could go on to live more peaceful lives.

(02:04):
But the recipizenism rate of terrorists that are released from
GITMO is about thirty two percent, so that means one
in three will return to terror. So out of these
eleven guys, three of the four of them were going
to wind up back on the battlefield conservatively, you know, conservatively.

(02:26):
So that's based on the trends we've had for the
last twenty years. And a US Intel report actually says
that some detainees currently at GITMO will seek to re
engage in terrorists or insurgent activities after they're transferred. So
why are we doing this If we have the intel
that says that one in three of these guys are

(02:46):
going to go back to terror. Why would we release
any of them? Why? And I'll tell you why. It's
a political thing, you know. I mean, this guy did
the opposite of what any normal thinking American would do.
He had to reverse everything that Trump did because Trump
was determined to keep get MO open. He said, as

(03:07):
you may recall, he famously said he was going to
fill it up with a lot of bad dudes. And
Biden's just trying to empty the place out at any costs.
And the cost, I'm afraid is going to be in
American lives, because don't you think for a minute that
these guys aren't trying to cook up the next nine

(03:28):
to eleven, you know. And I just have so many concerns,
you know. He sent them to Oman, and we've got
a State Department report now that says Oman's counter terrorism
programs were postponed or canceled after the COVID nineteen pandemic.
And then it says it goes on to say that

(03:49):
Oman's initiatives to counter violent extremism remained opaque. In other words,
we don't know what we don't know what their counter
terrorism program is we have no idea what that consists of.
It's like, oh, please, don't do this again. You know
what is what does that mean? So you just don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
I have the Department of Defense Press Relief released, and
of course it was sent out January sixth, and it
concludes with today there's fifteen detainees remain at Guantanamo, Three
are eligible for transfer, three are eligible for a periodic
review board, and seven are involved in the military commission process.

(04:29):
And two detainees have been convicted and sentenced by military commissions.
So that's how it ends the press release. Am I
supposed to feel better?

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Don No, absolutely not. You shouldn't because these these review boards,
they don't. They only say is that, well, we've got experts,
you know, So okay, you know, Fauci was an expert.
You know, We've got lots of experts in government. So
it's this panel of experts that review their their their
dossier's and say, okay, we're going to send them off

(05:00):
and have them, you know, come back, you know, as
peaceful people. I don't think so. One guy, you know,
two of these guys are releasing Osama bin Laden's bodyguards
are you telling me that Osama been Laden's bodyguards are
gonna be rehabilitatedded Yeah, I mean, you know, a little

(05:22):
lead poisoning. That's about it. That's all we have in
you know. And one of these bodyguards who was released
by Boden Biden and I'm no good with these names,
I can't pronounce them. His name is Kazini. I think
he was a facilitator for the Yemen based al Qaeda branch.
So it's like, okay, so he worked for the Yemen
based al Qaeda branch, so we're sending him next door

(05:45):
to Oman and then and also, you know, this guy
could just he could just so easily slip back into
his overall across the border in Yemen. So it's like,
what are we doing? I mean, six months ago Oman,
actually they're there. They're their program to rehabilitate these guys.

(06:06):
They've abandoned twenty eight other Gitmo terrorists they promised to reform,
so they just said, no, these guys are too much,
we can't reform them. They they strip them of their
citizenship and they shipped them back to Yemen, twenty eight
of them. They're like, yeah, the US says we should
be you know, you know, rehabilitating these guys, but they're

(06:26):
beyond redemption. We can't deal with them, sorry, So we
sent them back and at what costs. By the way,
do you think Oman is doing this out of the
goodness of its heart? I'm sure Uncle Sugar is writing
them a big check and saying, here, take these guys,
we want to close Gitmo. Just do something with them.
So Oman's got these Gitmo terrorists. They promised to reform

(06:46):
them and they can't, so they just release them. They
just send them back to Yemen. So here we are,
we'd get more grants back on the battlefield. I mean,
what are we gonna learn? Did we learned we learned
nothing from nine o life?

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Well we never We never learned anything. Don That's the problem.
And it's like, and these are hard lessons, these are
a lot. These are lessons paid with blood, you know,
the hardest lessons to learn and in which you really
should learn from. But you know, here we have a
government that is just populated by idiots.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
I don't know, you know, Lloyd Austin, you know what,
I'm trying to remember.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
They he he had some kind of I guess there
was an outrage they were going to release a bunch
of them or send some of them into the civil system,
and then there was this public outrage over and then
Lloyd Austin, you know, jumps right in there and cancel it.
Now federal judges says he doesn't have the authority to
do it.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
You know, the deal is a deal, And.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Well here was the deal with that. These are the
nine to eleven conspirators. They were going to cop a plea.
They were going to take death penalty off the table
for kleet Check Muhammad and two others and we'll just
make a pleae. Now, Ksm is terrified of solitary confinement,
like he doesn't want to do that. And he's got
a pretty good at Gitmo. He gets the run of
the grounds. They got a seven hundred thousand dollars soccer

(08:05):
field that they built for these guys. They've got a library,
they've got laptops, they can walk from sell to sell.
They're pretty free within their own compound. So he just
wants to stay there. That's part of his deal. He
doesn't want to go anywhere. So this thing has dragged on.
They've conducted lawfare on the American people since these guys

(08:26):
were incarcerated back in the early two thousands. And you've
got an army of left wing lawyers and NGOs non
government organizations and I mean lefties you know, from around
the world that are defending these these terrorists because they're
America haters, you know, and they also want to make
a name for themselves. I mean, make no doubt about it.

(08:48):
These are career making cases for lawyers where a lawyer
can say, yeah, well I defend the terrorist at GITMO,
you know, like that's a big deal, you know. So
they all want to be part of the trial of
the century. So now here they are. These things dragged
on forever and ridiculous. And now I've been there three
times in twenty nine, twenty fourteen, and again in twenty seventeen,

(09:10):
and just so you know the level of ridiculousness. I
was down there the very first time in two thousand
and nine, and I went with my brother Andrew and
my sister Lorraine, and we were picked by lottery. We're
allowed to bring an escort with us, so we were
able to build. With the three of us, w went,
which was very unusual. So we get to the courtroom,

(09:33):
they called the court to order and these guys were
already in place. You know, they're you know, got leg
irons on their shackle to the floor. And my first
reaction is, where are the red jumpsuits? I mean, you
always see these orange jumpsuits on TV, and you know
these guys like, you know, doing the prison walk and
being all abused and down track. Here they are in

(09:55):
flowing robes, military garb, headdresses, the floor freaking regalia. And
the look did Day look chastened? Did Day look like
they were somewhat regretful for their actions? No, they were
in full control of that courtroom, and as a matter
of fact, they didn't even really recognize the courtroom or

(10:16):
the authority of the courts over them. So this was
a competency hearing for Ramsey den Al sheheb and KSM
goes into this rant about a something had read in
the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times or what
I forget, maybe it was the Washington Post. He's went
on this rant about how it was inaccurate and all

(10:36):
this stuff, and he gets up in full court and
he says, I did it. I said, we did it.
We did it for jihad. Just sentence us. That's what
he said. He had fully admitted to his guilt in
two thousand and nine. He was like a no contesting,
But because it was a pre trial hearing and not
a trial, it wasn't really taken as a confession, and
of course the left wingers didn't want to hear of it.

(10:58):
You know, here we are, how many years later, still
arguing with this guy. A lawyer gets up during the
proceeding and says that my client has requested a cushion
for the van ride from the detention center to the courthouse.
He never got that cushion. So then the government prosecutor says, no,

(11:19):
he was provided with a cushion. And they're going back
and forth and back and forth about whether or not
this unrepentant terrorist got a cushion for his van ride.
My sister turns around to me and she says, you know,
two thousand people are dead. Thousands are dead, almost three
thousand rather and they're arguing over a cushion. Is this

(11:39):
what they're arguing about. I mean, she couldn't take it.
She got up, if she woke out of the courtroom,
she was so upset. That's what's going on down there.

Speaker 4 (11:47):
That's what happens.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
I thought these guys wanted to be martyrs out you
know what, out and send them off to Allah, you know,
and there's seventy two rounds.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, but there their little terrorist tushes can't take the
van ride, you know, to the Silla. I mean, they
need a cushion. So it's been so frustrating. I saw
a place where prisoner's toy with the authorities. They read
the newspapers, They get daily breaks for prayer, I think
three breaks a day for prayer. On the floor. They

(12:21):
have painted which way Mecca is so they can face Mecca.
I mean, we are really, we are really doing some
crazy stuff. So that's what's happening. And I went back again,
and that was, as you may recall, back in two
thousand and nine. I was there in January two thousand

(12:42):
and nine, and that's when Obama was being sworn in,
so everybody knew that he was going to halt all
the proceedings down there anyway. So that's why these terrorists
were acting up. They sole weakness in our leadership and
they're like, yeah, we want a cushion, and yeah, I
did it. What are you going to do about it?
You know, because they knew Obama was going to shut
down the proceedings, and then that dragged on for a

(13:05):
few more years, and then they went back down again
in twenty fourteen for yet another disappointing pre trial hearing.
And it's a preach. They still haven't been to trial.
These are all pre trial motions. And that's when I
met the terrorist lawyers down there. And because the terrorist lawyers,

(13:25):
who are Americans, they call themselves Americans. I look at them,
I don't see an American. They hired a they lobbied,
and they got something called a DIVO Defense Initiated Victim Outreach.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Okay, Divo was my first album album. I ever bought their.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
Heads. I know we are not men, we are we
have to have.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
A little fun with the hard subject.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
Yeah yeah, yeah, there's on their head now. These these
people are up. They were off the charts crazy. So
they didn't like all the bad press they were getting,
and they said, well, we want to reach out to
the nine to eleven family members who were talking bad
about us, and this way, you know, they can understand

(14:16):
why we're you know, why we're doing this and justice
and you know why we're so morally superior, you know,
so believe me they're not going to want to meet
with me again. I guarantee you that. So we went
into this room and we had the lawyers there, and
one of them was that it was an Air Force captain,
Air Force JAD and they actually had a buffet set

(14:37):
up for us and everything, you know, and we walked
past the buffet. Every was mad and we just wanted
to see what made these guys tech, you know, and
this one lawyer reaches out to shake my hand, you know,
in the areas, I'm like, fuck you like that, Tom,
and his face turned all red and I stuck my
hand in my pocket and I sat down. And then

(14:59):
that's when things that interesting. You know, one lawyer who
was asked by There was a lawyer there. I forget
what her name was, Sheryl Boorman, that was her name.
She's since been thrown off the defense team for improprieties
that will never know about. It's all sealed. But she
used to dress the Middle Eastern garb to talk to

(15:19):
her defendant. She wore the whole headdress and the flowing
robe and the whole deal and she wore that. Yeah,
And there was a young college female college student whose
mother had been killed by nine to eleven, and she
asked him, She goes, why do you come why do
you cover up in Middle Eastern guard with then a headscarf,
you know? And she says, well, my client wouldn't talk

(15:41):
to me if I didn't dress this way. Well, this
young girl, who couldn't have been more than twenty one
twenty two years old, I don't know, ways thing towards says,
how do you bow down to people like that? How
do you buy into that? This is why do you
subjugate yourself? Like? Really made? Have? You know? You call
yourself a woman? And then David Nevin was the guy
who was the lead defense lawyer for College Shaikh Muhammad,

(16:06):
and I asked him and I was like, so, what's
it like to sit next to the guy that carved
off Danny Pearl's head? And if you remember, Daniel Pearl
was a reporter who was executed on video by College
Shaik Muhammad on video, chop his head off, held it
up Alabar the whole nine yards and then of course
he goes on to master Mind nine to eleven after that, So,

(16:28):
so what's it like to sit next Yeah, so what's
it like to sit next to that guy? And he
gives me a lecture on the continuence. Yeah ahead, sorry,
and he says, he gave me a lecture and the Constitution.
You know, according to the Constitution, they didn't do pears.
And I'm like, here for a lecture on the Constitution.
And since one of the foreign born terrorists who are

(16:49):
who are war criminals subject to the Constitution in the
United States, I mean, this is the military tribal. What
the hell's wrong with you people? So I asked him,
I said, how can you defend terrists? And he goes, well,
I love my job, and I think you love your job.
And that's when me and other family members just stormed out.
You loved your You love defending terrorists and murderers. You

(17:10):
love that.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Yeah right, I don't understand it. Well, my question to you,
don is why do you think Yeah, Devo, I'm taking
it back like the rainbow. But why why do you
think Biden now has released these eleven terrorists, especially on
January sixth, poking the eye? Why now? Well, the people

(17:35):
his handlers that have authorized this. I always joke that
it is doctor Jill, but but why now? I mean,
I'm this is so frustrating.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
It's Obama three point zero, right, So here they are
in the waning days of their failed administration and they're
thrashing that's just for the same reason they're selling off
parts of the border walls some pennies on the dollar,
so the same reason they're throwing the borders open and
trying to keep them for the same reason. They're giving

(18:06):
people an extension on their stays at the eleventh hour here,
you know, I think it was like a fifteen month extension.
He gave some illegal aliens, I mean, people who should
be deported he's keeping in the country. So that's for
the same reason. And they got the people there don't
love their country, they don't like their country. If you
have the worldview that everything wrong in the world is

(18:30):
due to American hegemony, then of course America is evil,
you know, if everything if America is everything wrong in
the world, and that's your worldview, and that's the crap
they teach at these universities. And of course the cake
eaters are up there now with their Ivy League degrees
and the heads of their butt calling the shots now.

(18:50):
So that's why he's doing it. He's just. And also
I think he has personal animals towards Donald Trump. He
just wants to make it difficult for him, right, So it.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
Would you be surprised if they just flat flat closed
Gitmo and moved all the detainees through.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
That was my question too.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
I would be very surprised. But they won't because Congress
passed the law. And what's the cenator's name from South Carolina?
I can see his face. Lindsey Graham was instrumental in
passing a law that said you cannot bring these guys
to the US. So once you bring one of these
law of war defendants to the US, the subject to

(19:32):
what they call Article three courts or federal court, and
then when you get into a federal court, you get
platinum justice. Then you get all of the rights and
privileges of a US citizen. And these are not US citizens.
These are war criminals and they need to be just.
And I said this on my Fox interview. Just like Nuremberg,

(19:53):
these guys were war criminals and they were in military
tribunals and went, ah, these poor people, they have fright. No,
they don't have rights. Since when do they have rights
under the Constitution? That they're they're foreign enemy combatants and
we need to realize that sooner than later. So no,
he can't. He is barred by law from bringing these

(20:14):
defendants to the US. And of course Erik Alder back
in the day was saying, well, you know, if they
were in the US, it already, you know, we'd have
a conviction, they'd be in supermax and all that. That's
not the point. The point is, you know, they don't
belong here. And also, what happens when we when we
capture guy on the battlefield, right, and we bring him

(20:35):
to a black site and we interrogate him to get
life saving battlefield intelligence. Are we supposed to read them
as miranda rights because it's going to wind up in
federal court? And are we going to have soldiers out
there mirandizing enemy prisoners of war because they might wind
up in federal court in Manhattan someday. No, No, they're

(20:57):
they're prisoners of war and they have to be treated
as such under the Geneva Conventions and all that stuff.
And maybe some stuff went down that, oh, by the way,
was legal at the time, the water boarding we were
talking about, which is a non lethal form of interrogation.
Obviously they're still here. Not pleasant, but you know, sucks
to be them. What do you want from me? You know?

Speaker 1 (21:17):
So it's been reported that we've spent like, I don't know,
seven billion dollars and it's thirteen million dollars a year
for each prisoner. Do we care? I mean, to me,
they're terrorists. I mean, you know, we throw money, We
give money to everybody else. I'm happy to keep a
terrorist in Guantanamo Bay, so they're not coming after me
to blow up two world towers.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
Well, this is a forced eraror you talk about economy
of scale. When it had over seven hundred people down
terrorists down at Guantanamo Bay at its peak, it wasn't
thirteen million each. They purposely winnowed the population down to
make it look more expensive. And in the grand scheme
of things, we're running trillion dollar deficits. Thirteen million is

(22:03):
a small price to pay. I mean, what what price
tag would you put on an American life? Your son
or daughter being killed on their way to work or
at work by a terrorist. Is that worth thirteen million
a year? New, It's worth thirteen million to me? I mean,
if we're paying taxis for ever? The got some ghoul
thing they can dream up? Yeah, I mean if we

(22:23):
can fire hose Ukraine with billions, I mean, we can
certainly come up with a hum measly million to take
care of these guys. And oh, by the way, that story,
you know that that talking point was promulgated by NPR.
And NPR is the fattest pig at the trough when
it comes.

Speaker 4 (22:41):
To the.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
We're gonna slaughter that pig under Trump.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
And it's if you can't complete in the market, compete
in the marketplace, why you on the air, you know,
I mean, if you can't compete, why they have They
have the newest equipment, they get the biggest budgets. I mean,
there is no commercial radio entity out there.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
If you want, if you need to sleep, you put
NPR on and you'll pass out. It's like a free
little sleeping pill.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
So so now you know n that's a government news agency.
It's a government news agency. The government says, we need
people to know we're spending thirteen millions so we can
get rid of the GETMO that's it, Yes, sir, got
our marchin orders thirteen million. Yeah, but they get billions
every year to stay on the air.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
So did you see what sixty sixty one minutes interview
with Director Ray and his comments on another possible terrorist attack.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
I did not, but I'm I'm kind of familiar with
his outlook on that it's not a matter of if,
it's a matter of win.

Speaker 3 (23:49):
And I was kind of surprised because he seemed he
seemed to not really want to address the immigrant situation
so much as what was going on over over in
the Middle East right now, thinking that that that they're
actually over there formulating the attack to come here as
opposed to having these you know, something already embedded, you know,
through this open border immigration.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Yeah, he's a political animal's he's not an investigator, he's
not a cop. I mean, he's a politician and he's
going to go whichever way the wind blows. And quite frankly,
his politics have clouded his judgment for a lot of
years now, and he's certainly not the man for the
job he needs to go like yesterday. You know, he

(24:31):
has to say that because you know, Congress gets briefings, right,
Intel committees, they get briefings. They see what's going on
in the world, you know, and for this guy to say, oh,
it's really overseas and forget about that, you know, we've
learned nothing from the nine to eleven Commission report. The
nine to eleven Commission report talked all about borders, you know,
talked all about security. So while you and I are

(24:55):
herded like cattle through TSA checkpoints, we've got foreigners. We
don't know who the hell they are coming through our borders,
and if you count the getaways, they we don't know
who's coming to We don't know who the people are
who are going well they are vetted, they're not vetted.
They might run them through our system, but you know,
half the countries they come through have no record keeping

(25:17):
whatsoever to share with us. So we have no idea
who these people are. And rest the storage or don't
sleep at night. The rest of the story. There are
terror cells active in this country now, I would bet
bet the farm on it. And not just one either.
There are many terrorst cells well in this country right now.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Some of our own, like the one that just did
the New Orleans and killed all of those people with
the F one fifty. He was American in radical e.
So it's disgusting. So don you know, we got Trump
coming in in a couple of days. It's just glorious.
What did this election mean to you and the future
of nine to eleven? I just cannot believe. You know,

(25:58):
this is eleven was so long ago, and justice has
not been delivered, So what does this mean to you?
With Trump? And then are we going to get justice? Finally?

Speaker 2 (26:10):
I think that President Trump knows. He realizes that residing
at Guantanamo Bay and in our country, in these terrorist
cells we talked about, there are dozens, maybe hundreds, maybe
even thousands of murderous jihadis who eat, drink and think
about killing Americans like my brother Adam every day. They're

(26:32):
not innocent goat herders, you know. And I think he
knows that. So I'm hoping that he will go back
to his twenty sixteen stance of We're going to fill
it up with a lot of bad dudes and get
on with it with the military tribunals. Now, one of
the problems with the tribunals and why it's taken so long,
is that they're they're shuttling these lawyers back and forth

(26:54):
between Guantanamo Bay and and DC. I would posit that
you guys have been at it for a while to
get the discovery. Let's get this thing on and nobody
leaves Gitmo till it's over. None of shuttling back and forth.
You got to talk to your staff, you got to
do more. You stay at GITMO, do all you If

(27:16):
you want to sign up the DeFi to defend terrorists,
you're going to stay there. And the same for the
government lawyers, you're gonna stay there. You're gonna stay at
Gitmo till it's over because they'll just they used to
end of course, COVID shut it down, but they'll stop court,
they'll postpone it and everybody goes home. You know, they
got vacations, they got this regular court calendar and all that.

(27:37):
Could you imagine that? I mean, if you look at Nuremberg,
it was said and done in ten months. They knew
who the Nazi war criminals were, they collected the evidence,
they brought them to trial. A lot of them were executed,
some were sentenced to prison, others were released. But they
got it on with. They got it done here, which

(28:00):
just it's law fair. That's all it is, is lawfair.
And it's the same crap they've been doing.

Speaker 4 (28:06):
So you think it's just been do you think it's
just gone on too long?

Speaker 3 (28:10):
Down that we've missed the window of opportunity because the
national will has disappeared.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
Is that why we can't resolve this?

Speaker 2 (28:19):
I think the national will is there. As a matter
of fact, up until a very short time ago, most
people thought the nine to eleven Terrifts were already in
prison or executed. People like, really, they're still around. They're
doing this under the cover of darkness. They're doing it,
you know, on the down low. And it's only one
or two reporters who cover this thing. The Miami Herald
does a great job of covering it, but mostly not,

(28:44):
mostly not. And you do you hear about the trials
on the news? Not so much anymore. So I think,
you know, we say never forget, and everybody in government
said never forget, and yeah, never forget, never get, never forget.
Don't even give a shit anymore. You know, people forgot.
They've forgotten a big way, and they don't care. So

(29:05):
I think they're Americans have had enough.

Speaker 3 (29:08):
Do you think do you think that Trump administration will
take the Israeli approach and and proactively go out and
just you know, drop a few bombs.

Speaker 4 (29:17):
On these people.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Think he took Solimani, Yeah, he took out past some
Sulimani with no problem at all. And he was an
Iranian general who was you know, in Iraq and providing
aid and comfort to UH terrorists around the world. So
we're like, yeah, we know what you guys are up to.
And they droned them. And that was that. I haven't

(29:40):
heard much out of him lately, have we, so uh.
And that's that's one probably good thing that Obama did,
although he may have broken the law in doing it.
He would release terrorists into the field and then drone
him that he'd rather and actually, and actually he droned

(30:01):
an American citizen who was engaged in terrorism, Like I
just take him out now. If anybody deserves a trial,
it's an American citizen. Not that I would protest and
droning a terrorist a Saras is a terrorist in my book,
you know, regardless of nationality. But he broke the law.
I mean, he was a judge, jury, and executioner of
this guy. So yeah, I say, we drone him and

(30:25):
we get it on. We get and open it up again.
You know, it's been a while since I've been there.
I was there in twenty seventeen. There was a lot
of construction going on in twenty seventeen, you know, they
were building this thing up, you know, and I don't
know what happened since then.

Speaker 4 (30:41):
They might have.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
Stopped construction during the Biden years. But I think Trump
has the right idea. And you know, Guantanamo Bay will
always be there. We'll always have a naval base there.
And we've got at least with Cuba and perpetuity, and
we pay rent there. And of course I don't think.

Speaker 4 (30:59):
We're going to get away like that. You know, it's
not not gonna We're not.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
Gonna have well, you know, Castro never cast the checks.
You know, we made that that agreement way back when,
you know, and we keep paying for our lease and
they don't cast the checks, and so what you know,
they'll be they'll be a base there forever. It's just
the prison camp.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Name and not being well, maybe they put in a
hair salon. You know, they have to get their hair
cut too, so you know for TJ.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
Max.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
You know, they got a shop as well.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
You know, and these guys get these guys get military
health care down there. They get military health care, which
is good. They watch movies, oh yeah, well they get
they get better care than most Americans do, and during
the COVID pandemic, they were going to get their shots
before American citizens were.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Kisses me off, even though I regret having had two
of them now, So yeah, me too, freaking break. So
I have a question for you because this week also
is there's a lot of folks that are going to
be confirmed. They've got the hearings for Trump's picks. What
are your thoughts on Pete Haig Seth and then Tulsea
Gabbard are the big ones.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Yeah, you know, it's funny. I was watching sometimes I
watch the Enemy News and I'm watching Stephanopoulos, you know,
and he's like, well, you know Fox News reporter and
Fox personality, and that's the way they talk about egg Seth.
You know, I'm like, dude, he's got as good or
better at education than you. I would put his resume

(32:38):
up against yours any day. And you're a celebrity on TV.
I mean, so what are you talking about? At least
Heegsa did something manly with his life, you know, he
did something worthwhile with his life. This guy was with
a lackey for the Clintons for a long time and
then got picked up because of his political connections to

(32:58):
become a quote unquote journalist. You know, so tell me
this guy isn't biased. So I think heg Seth is
gonna he's got it. I think they're given him the full,
the full treatment that they gave Gorsic. You know, they're
gonna give him the grsage treatment, and they're gonna dig

(33:19):
up ship from his past and try to embarrass him.
They're gonna make it hurt. But I think he's gonna
he's gonna get it. You know, there was I guess
some so improprieties in his past of a sexual nature
or so they claim, which he denies. They said. There
was also some some uh financial uh shenanikins that he

(33:42):
also denies. The guy's been convicted of nothing. He's never
been arrested. Okay, he's got a tattoo. You don't like.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
I mean, I don't know I like his tattoos. I
just want to go on the record. He can take
his shirt off anytime for me, So don't tell my husband.
You know, you know, I know he looks great for
his age. I'm like, feel free to do pushups for
me anytime. I you know, joking joking, So.

Speaker 2 (34:11):
Okay, the rest of us all over. Guys look bad,
you know, yes, to get.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
To the jam. Come on, what about a director of
the National Intelligence. Are you okay with that?

Speaker 2 (34:25):
Yeah? I am more than okay with it. I'm more
than okay with it because I look at it this
way that when it comes to the d n I
or the sect F, these two candidates couldn't do our
nominees as it were, couldn't do any worse than their predecessors.

(34:45):
I mean, Lloyd Austin was the ultimate empty suit. I
mean he stood by and he watched Afghanistan. They did
everything wrong they could do. And this is the great
military mind you put in charge of that. I mean,
he could give two wits about Soldier sale as Amine Marines.
You know, he's all about his politics.

Speaker 4 (35:04):
You know.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
And the guy higher don.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
Of course, anybody could getting rid of BOGRAM. Anybody that
even said yes to that.

Speaker 1 (35:15):
Was the equipment? Are you joking? Are you joking? And
then that that pullout was horrific.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
And and Millie, he's just getting this presidential award stood
by there like, oh thank god, he understands white rage.
But the guy doesn't understand a tactical retrogram to.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Better get a pardon because we might have to visit
him in jail. You know, atrocious. H just he makes
the military look bad, honestly, so.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
They did so at least these people are going in
with the good intentions and the right intentions. You know,
they're not politicians. You know, Telsey's a little bit of
a power petition because she did hold public office, uh
as a congressman. But you know she's also been in
the military, and she's also you know, familiar with the
intel procedures hagsat same thing, Sure, there's going to be

(36:12):
Is there going to be a learning curve? You bet you.
But they're going to hit the ground running. The surround
on selves are good people. Moreover, they're going to get
rid of a lot of bad people. Well you can
get left wing political activists.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
And she's sharp. She's sharp. You know, she posted I
don't know, it was a few months ago, like she
was like on this like gun obstacle course, like running
around shooting stuff, and she was a badass. So yeah,
you know, I was like, Okay, so I want to
talk a little politics with both of you because I've

(36:47):
been having like PTSD with the fires. I feel like
our hurricane because we all were here for Hurricane Michael
six years ago. It was a Category five that was
a direct hit to where we live, and and compare
to the fires, it looks, you know, I'm gonna say
it was hurricane light, but I'm definitely having some PTSD.
But what we've seen from California Governor Newsom, Mayor baths

(37:13):
the La Mayor is a frickin' They've been disasters. So
I wanted to hear from I've been dying to talk
to John about all of this. And we still have
fires raging. You know, they've got a big warning Tomorrow's Tuesday,
the windsor ninety nine plus. They never did their deforestation.
It's just it's just awful. So how are you all

(37:37):
seeing this? I mean, I'm so sad for these people
and the animals, and could you imagine everything's gone? Your church,
your grocery store, your your house, your schools. I mean,
the devastation and we all have lived through it, but
this is like the worst I've ever seen for Americans.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
You know, the saddest thing about this whole thing is
that it was totally avoidable, totally avoid them. It's not
like a hurricane. The hurricanes a hurricane. We had a
Cat five. Nothing you do to stop that damn thing.
But these fires. You live in California, you know you're
gonna have fires, You're gonna have earthquakes, You're gonna have
mud slides. That's a fact of life. And just because

(38:15):
the emergency management people weren't on the ball or didn't
get the resources, you know, this doesn't make it. You
know they're gonna call it. You know, Mother nature will
always have her way and climate change and all that.
Don't believe that for one minute. You know, Trump warned
them back in the day when he was still president.
He told Newsom, you gotta clear up your forests. You know,

(38:36):
you've got to do something with the water. You're dumping
all this water in the Pacific. You know, this guy
he picked fish over people, these little fish, he picked
them over people.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
And they're ugly too right now.

Speaker 3 (38:50):
And then and then you head on top of that,
they cut the fire budget, you know, by a bunch of.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
And they were gonna cut it. They were gonna cut
it more until the fires broke out. They were gonna
make another forty million.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
Why why did they fire apartments? I'll tell you why.

Speaker 1 (39:05):
Well, because they were giving it to the illegals for
their healthcare. Illegals. They came to America illegally over Americans again.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
And more over, my friend, fired apartments are largely populated
by white guys. Middle aged white guys love to be firemen,
you know, and that doesn't fit with their narrative. They
they first of all, they fired a bunch of guys
because they wouldn't take the jab, they wouldn't get a
COVID shot, so they had to leave. And then they
had all these DEI hires, And in a moment of

(39:40):
clarity and reassurance, I saw that La fire chief get
real honest for a minute when they were asked, do
you feel like they let you down? And she said, yes,
they let me down. You didn't resource her properly. And
she even wrote them a letter. She wrote the mayor
a letter, Hey, you guys, cut this. We're not going
to be able to train, We're not going to be
able to respond to wildfires in appropriate fashion, let alone

(40:03):
of resource management at the state level.

Speaker 1 (40:06):
She was a di higher. And now they're all pointing
fingers at each other, and even even dumbass Newsome tried
to they're trying to well he tried to blame Trump.
I will say Mayor bass A bass said, no, the
Trump administration. They're taking my calls. So she you know,
she doesn't want to piss anyone off because they're calling

(40:27):
for her to to be ousted.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
Yeah, they've already started a call petition to haul her
at Yeah. Yeah, it's already got like eighty something thousand signatures.

Speaker 4 (40:39):
What I had heard.

Speaker 3 (40:40):
But but you know, the reporting, I've been watching the
reporting and listening, and I wish the damn reporters would
would listen to what the people say. And I'm talking
about the fire chief, right, I'll give you a good
example here. They're talking about, like, you know, fifty thousand
structures have been destroyed, and and and then next thing
you hear the reporter saying thousand homes have been destroyed.

Speaker 4 (41:01):
And it's like, did you hear.

Speaker 3 (41:03):
The definition by the fire what a structure is.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
Which included vehicles too.

Speaker 3 (41:09):
By the way, if you had a dog house in
your backyard, that is a structure. I've had a lawnmower
shed in your backyard, that's a structure.

Speaker 4 (41:20):
You know what.

Speaker 3 (41:20):
I'm like, Yes, that's not the number of houses, you know,
that's the number of things that have burned, you know.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
I mean, well, I will say even this weekend though,
they arrested some illegals that had flamethrowers that were certain fires.
So so thanks for letting them in so they can
continue this.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
You know, that's crazy, man, the whole thing's crazy. And
you know, in my younger years, you know, I was
a New York City firefighter from eighty nine to ninety six,
back when I had hair and muscle masks, the glory
days of big city firefighting. You know, we used to
categorize them, and you know, we would have a total
number of fires and then we'd break it down car

(41:57):
fires and then other fires, and it was occupied structural
workers and the occupied structural worker was a dwelling essentially,
you know, so if it was an occupied structure, you
counted that as a fire. For some reason, they're just
saying structures, you know, so that can be and that

(42:17):
includes cars. You know. Now we would have a total
number of fires, but that would be like dumpster fires.
And you know, believe it or not, even went to
a forest fire in Manhattan once in a park.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
Well, I have to say, though, it's embarrassing. I mean,
the fire hydrants the reservoir, even though the mayor said, oh,
no that you know, and and the governor.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
No, we've had the problem.

Speaker 1 (42:40):
They're literally awful. And the one the funny thing is
the people are who suffer. It's funny. I saw Justine
Bateman was on Fox and she's like, it doesn't matter
if you have an R or D. I mean, you've
got to take care of the people, you know, and.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
People.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
Well, yeah, one thing you might appreciate, don is I
heard one of the fire chief giving some quick math stuff, right,
and he's talking about, well, the typical structure of fire
requires three three fire trucks, and then he multiplied that times,
you know, five thousand. And it's like, you know, where
are we going to get forty five thousand fire trucks from?

Speaker 4 (43:17):
And I'm like, are you sane?

Speaker 1 (43:19):
Well, well, here's the kicker.

Speaker 3 (43:22):
You don't have five thousand structures burning. You know the
fire trucks thru well.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
Fire trucks that have been coming in from other states,
they've been stopping them at the state line to do
a safety inspection. I'm like, are you flipping diesel powered?

Speaker 4 (43:40):
They're diesel powered on top of that, which is a no.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
No Encolenar, no diesel gas there.

Speaker 4 (43:45):
You're not allowed to sell. You're right.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
They want to get probably get electric powered fire trucks,
you know. So wait a minute, they shut.

Speaker 2 (43:51):
Away fire, don't they.

Speaker 4 (43:53):
Oh yeah, they shut the.

Speaker 2 (43:54):
LA Fire Department. The LA Fire Department donated a bunch
of quote unquote excess equipment to them to I think
it's to Ukraine.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Well, just got President Zelensky said, Oh, I'm sending one
hundred and fifty firemen to Cali to show partnerships. So
he's sending people. Don he's trying. He wants his money, honey,
So but literally embarrassing. Yeah, it's true.

Speaker 2 (44:25):
We're funding their pensions.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
Well tell January twentieth, the party's over and hopefully my
pension will get funded.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
Don Well, I tell you, Biden is certainly sending enough
stuff over inn'ty What was the last when I saw
five hundred million dollars on top of the bion they
did a couple of days before that. I mean, it's
just crazy the amount of money they sent over in
the last two weeks.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
Oh yeah, they're burning down the house.

Speaker 4 (44:48):
You know.

Speaker 2 (44:49):
I thought it was really petty and sad when the
Clinton team tried all the w's off the KO in
the White House when they left. Remember that when Bush
came in George w KM and they tried all the
ws off. I mean, I was like, really, how stupid
this is not that's nothing compared to what they're doing now.
Now they're really doing some injury to the American people

(45:12):
just to be spiteful. I don't get it. These people
are zealous, they're crazy, they're dangerous. They need to be
at a government, at a government, and I'm really excited
about Pam Bondi going through the d OJ. That place
has to be. They have to clean house in a
big way. You have got left wing that we had.

(45:33):
If you want to circle back to get more real quick,
they had left wing activists who were parts of of
these NGOs that were suing the government on behalf of
the terrorists right now, they as soon as Obama got
and they hired them on Eric holled to hire them

(45:53):
that now they're full time staffers at the dj So
these are committed leftists who are suing the US government
on behalf of terrorists, and now they're making policy on
Guantanamo Bay. So no wonder we're doing crazy stuff like that,
you need to get rid of these people.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
What would Adam say, you know, I mean, I just
I mean, the justice has taken forever. You know, I'm hoping.
I think Trump did win the four years ago. Honestly,
what would Adam say? I mean, you knew him, you know,
I've seen so many pictures of him, because we've been
friends for a long time. We've talked about this subject.

(46:32):
He seemed like a really special guy. What would your
brother say? He seemed just looking at his picture, he
looked like a gentle soul. Honestly, he was.

Speaker 2 (46:43):
He was very intelligent. I mean, he was a very
bright guy. And he was a bright kid too, and
he he graduated high school a year early and went
to work on Wall Street right away. But he was
a reasonable person, and he'd just shake his head. He's like,
same old crap, same old crap, except now we've you know,

(47:05):
he passed in two thousand and one, and it's gotten
exponentially worse since he's been here on earth. You know.
I mean, we always had the loony left, we always
had the crazies on the left wing. But I don't
think he could have ever envisioned an Obama presidency that
populated government with these these these left wing zealots. I

(47:27):
don't think he would have ever envisioned it, but yeah,
he'd probably say, we've we've jumped the shark as a nation,
and we need to get back to basics, just like
you know, La, They got to get back to basics.
You know, we got to protect our boarders, pave our roads,
you know, as staff, our military, do the basics stuff,
you know, and take care of Americans first. I think

(47:50):
he was always an America first guy. He was a
member of the NRA and never owned a gun. He
lived in New York. He lived in New York and
you're a gun there.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
You know, how cute is that? Oh my gosh. I
would have loved him. I can already tell.

Speaker 4 (48:09):
That a lot.

Speaker 3 (48:12):
So the Wall Street Journal had had an interesting interview
last weekend, and it was by with the historian that
that's an expert on Lincoln and that that time period
elections and stuff, and he was making a comment that
he thought that the Trump election, this this twenty twenty
four election was one of those tech what he called
a tectonic shift election where the party that lost was

(48:38):
out of power for decades because of them please, And
I'm wondering, do you kind of think that's that's where
we're at. I mean, the Democrats seem that they are
still in complete disarray and denial and seem to have
no no path forward for anything. I mean, I've never
seen it. I thought the Democrats are little bit better

(48:59):
than that, but I mean it is really bad now.
Even Chuck Schumer can't can't seem to figure it out.

Speaker 2 (49:04):
No, they can't get traction anymore. I mean, the American
public's been red pilled, you know, Trump red pilled seventy
five million Americans, you know, and we're like, yeah, no way,
we're not having these guys back.

Speaker 4 (49:16):
Now.

Speaker 2 (49:16):
If California re elects their governor and their mayor and everything,
well you know, you get the government we deserve. But
I just can't imagine that happened. And John I just can't.

Speaker 1 (49:26):
Well, they did out their liberal da for a conservative,
and I saw I've seen him on a couple of
interviews and he's like, if you loot, we're throwing you
in jail, you know, throwing away the key. So maybe
maybe it is going to be a change, But I
will say, I mean, it's a state with I think
like over twenty million people. And I remember this last election.

(49:46):
I was just shocked when you looked at the up close,
like seventeen people ran for governor. Some got half a
million votes.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
You know.

Speaker 1 (49:54):
So I just I don't know. I just hope we
can ounse this pretty boy. I mean, he looks great
on TV, and he's really good at having all the
destruction behind him with all his hair gel. But it's
time for him to go. He doesn't care about his people.

Speaker 2 (50:10):
It is especially is the time of all these fires.
With that hair, you could start a grease fire.

Speaker 1 (50:19):
Well, I just feel for the poor people, I have
to say. And and then I was trying to figure
out I was trying to donate on VENMO today and
it wasn't working, so I've got to go to their website.
But Samaritan's Purse, I was so impressed when we had
our hurricane, they actually set up trailers here for I
think it was three years cooking for people and helping people.

(50:41):
So if anyone needs a charity, Franklin Graham's charity, they're legit.
They are. I have to say.

Speaker 2 (50:50):
I had a buddy of mine who volunteered with them,
and he loved his time with them, and he went
up to North Carolina after the hurricane up there, and
he says, just like the military, he says, they give
you orders, you show up at a certain place, and
they put you to work. You know. So he's retired
lieutenant colonel and yeah, he's he's a big fan of

(51:11):
the Samaritans first, and he said he'd do it again.
So and you know, unless we forget, it's not going
to be the government that saves us, you know, that
saves these people. It's gonna be these neighbors helping neighbors.
And if you look at my parish, Saint Dominic's here
in Panama City, they served eighty thousand meals. Yeah, eighty

(51:32):
thousand meals they served our church.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
Yeah, it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (51:37):
All the amazing And you know, the interesting out of
the California fires, the hero stories you hear are the
people that that didn't depend on government. They weren't sitting
around waiting for the government to come do something. They
decided to put their butts in gear and go do
it themselves. I mean, I'm talking about people that you know,
they had a pump and they put the hose in

(51:59):
their pool and they watered down their house in their
neighbor's house to keep the fire. And guess what, only
two houses standing in the neighborhood are the guy that
stood there, you know and pump the water out of
his apartment and saved his house. You know, he wasn't
waiting for the fire department to come save him.

Speaker 1 (52:14):
I wanted to. Mel Gibson was on Laura Ingram Friday
and there's been a lot of correlation between Maui because
they messed up the larning system. And then he stated
he and I've heard this not just from famous Mel
Gibson who lost his twenty three million dollar house, which

(52:35):
he was okay with.

Speaker 2 (52:36):
You know.

Speaker 1 (52:38):
That this was a setup because California wants to take
the property back. Which I've heard this about Maui as well,
because it's prime real estate and they wanted more high
density and not your you know, twenty three million dollar mansion.
Do you guys, Are you guys into conspiracy theories at all?

Speaker 2 (52:56):
Well, I'm not, but you know what of these things
turned out to be true, and it's scary, you know
it could be you know, that's the that's the liberal
wet dream is to have they tried to pass some legislation.
It didn't go anywhere, but they said all new construction,
like if you're doing a housing subdivision, you have to

(53:18):
have some high density apartments and there you've got to
rentals in there. I don't want a rental apartment in
my neighborhood. I paid a lot of money for my house,
you know, I don't need, you know, an apartment complex
down here. It never made it anywhere, but they tried
to do this at the federal level. So and I
think there's still some regulations out there. If you're going
to be eligible for federal aid in building housing, that

(53:39):
you've got to do high density. So yeah, they want
us all cuddled up together eating bugs, you know, and
you know, riding.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
Bicycles shots, you know, and some of them like Malibu.
I would be surprised if you see the waterside built
back ever again, because I don't think the environmentalists are
going to let them every get the permits.

Speaker 4 (54:01):
I don't think it's so much conspiracy.

Speaker 3 (54:03):
I think the end result is going to be what
they wanted, because you know, they're going to use the
rules and regulations and stuff to you know, it's it's
an what what is you know, the uh, the disaster.
You know, never never waste an opportunity right at right,
and I think that's exactly what they've got here, you know,
in this case, that that they're probably going to try

(54:25):
and get rid of some of those houses. You know,
back back to people that did their own thing. There
was what one guy's a developer that had just finished
remodeling a house and it and he'd been at it
for a dozen years because of the permit processes. He
said when he went through hell to get the permits
to do the remodeling on his house in Malibu, and

(54:45):
he's like he wasn't going to sit there and watch
it go up in flames because he didn't want to
go through that again.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
Well, I think there's going to be a lot of
people moving to to Vegas and which they've already done
in Phoenix. You know, please saved me a house in
Phoenix because I know everybody's going to move there who
wants to live in California with this madness, They can't
take care of them people.

Speaker 2 (55:09):
They're moving to places like Montana, also Florida, Texas. You know,
they're going to Red State, right you know, I mean
they've had enough unless you're super wealthy, you know. And
the taxes those poor people pay there at six dollars
a gallon gas, property taxes through the roof, you get
taxed every time you turn around. In California, they can't

(55:29):
even get basic fire protection. They can't.

Speaker 3 (55:32):
You can't even you can't even get insurance. They were canceling.
That's probably insurance, right, I think was it all state
or state farm canceled thirty percent of the fire policies.

Speaker 1 (55:42):
Yes, that is in the spring. Actually, yeah, in the spring.
They did that because they couldn't afford it.

Speaker 2 (55:50):
Yeah, And it's not because you know, insurance people are
evil or mean or anything. It's just that the state
of California set up a regulatory environment where it just
isn't prop for about to ensure anything and your business
to make money, So why would.

Speaker 1 (56:04):
You Well, could you blame you know, honestly.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
You can run bankruptcy. Yeah, yeah, no, I can't blame them.
I mean it's a business. And but you know, when
you have Marxists running your government, they don't care about business.

Speaker 3 (56:17):
Well, the thing I don't want to see is is
apparently the California has something like our citizens, you know, insurance.
It's an ensure last resort for fire for fire damage.
And apparently they only have like seven hundred million dollars.

Speaker 5 (56:31):
In there in there and their MEGA is available right
and they've got they've got they've got many billions of
dollars worth of claims exposure apparently, so you watch, it's
going to be a federal bailout.

Speaker 4 (56:42):
They're going to go for a.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Federal bail and then, of course, I mean newsome of
course is like saying that Trump's not going to play game.
They're gonna Trump's going to play games with California and
not give them any money. But you know, when it comes.

Speaker 3 (56:55):
To do he called a special session. He called a
special session to trump proof California instead of addressing the
fire problem. They're gonna trump prove California.

Speaker 1 (57:06):
Yeah, he's a loser. Please please, if you're listening from California,
you have to get rid of this guy. But didn't
they a while.

Speaker 3 (57:14):
Ago, grew up and move.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
But at least you can still get free needles and
camp on the sidewalk.

Speaker 1 (57:25):
And no and poop on the sidewalk.

Speaker 2 (57:28):
I walk in to.

Speaker 1 (57:32):
San Francisco has an app of that people report where
people have pooped. And in San Francisco, the most beautiful city,
one of the most beautiful cities in the world, we've
seen it all of like their big you know, their
fancy stores have pulled out, like everybody's leaving. Yeah, California needs, uh,
they need a I don't know one. So hopefully they'll

(57:53):
become more read through this. So what are we missing, gentlemen?
You know, we've got to say.

Speaker 2 (58:00):
The story is, there's an old thing that says strong
what if it strong? Strong men make good times and
weak men make hard times, you know, and that's what's happening,
you know, and you need some strong leadership. And yeah,
I don't know about Canada becoming the fifty first stated.

(58:23):
I know, I think I think California should be a
new province for Canada though, yeah that happened.

Speaker 1 (58:30):
Well, Canada is getting smart, they're cleaning up.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
So maybe maybe judeou resigns till he could come to
California and run for governor.

Speaker 2 (58:38):
Yeah, well, listen, the Trump the Trump effect is a thing.
The Trump effect is real. Yeah he might.

Speaker 1 (58:46):
You too, are trouble well, happy New year? Don you know?
We're always fighting the fight. I'm hoping that Trump rolls
in and it's only going to be you know, winning
for for Americans and the nine to eleven families and
and folks and California that are suffering now. So I
want to thank you for joining Bronica Live. Do you
have any final thoughts?

Speaker 2 (59:07):
No, just you know, be be afraid. I'm sorry, but
these if we just circle around to where we started.
You know, we're releasing terrorists, it's going to come back
to haunt us. We haven't heard the last of these guys.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
I agree. Well, God bless and we've been speaking with
retired Lieutenant Colonel Don Arias. His brother Adam Marius was
killed in nine to eleven and Don is a nine
to eleven warrior, always fighting the fight. Don, you're my
Air Force brother. So thanks for joining Barnica Live.

Speaker 2 (59:38):
