Speaker 1 (00:00):
The New York City Mayor's race, the autopen fiasco, I
ran Israel, and Colin Trump your daddy.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
This is the week in review on The David Rutherford Show.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Welcome everybody, your host David Rutherford on The David Rutherford Show.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Man, we can't thank you enough.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
And I just I'm here with Jordy and first, before
we even get into this nutty week again, I just
think we're living in the consummate tsunami of craziness right now.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
JORDI are you Are you feeling the same way, dude?
Speaker 3 (00:38):
The President's cursing on TV. We got music videos saying,
daddy's home. I don't know what's happening, dude, Dude. I
got contacted.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
They wanted me to do a hit on Sean Hannity's
radio show, and I like had this whole piece out
that I was like, you know, I woke up in
the morning. I was stoked there was peace in the
Middle East, and now all of a sudden, I woke
up with Trump dropping f bombs about about how they're
both jacked up for breaking the truth and all this,
(01:09):
and I was just like, thankfully I didn't get the opportunity,
but yeah, it's it's it's just another continuation of a
really wild time that we're living in, you know. And again,
I think one of the great challenges is that we
all feel kind of this uneasiness. And I think, you know,
(01:31):
one of the things that Jordy and I try and
do with all of you is is try and just
give some clarity to it, with some common sense, and
to try and be that flashbang of truth for you
on certain things.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
And you know, it's it's It's not always easy, though,
is it, Jordy. Dude.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I thought it was easy one week, and then it
just always gets harder. So we'll see it can't get
crazier than that. And then I hear Dad, I'm like, okay,
all right, clown world.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Awesome, all right.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Before we do that, though, I just I, Jordan and
I really want to thank.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
iHeartMedia.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
We want to thank Buck and Clay because this week
we had a milestone for our new show and we
crossed over a million downloads in three months. And man,
I'll tell you what, what a great feeling. And for
me specifically, we did it with the Pat Craft show,
(02:30):
the athletic director for Penn State, which is a wonderful
guy really doing amazing things there.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But Jordy, dude, how's it feel, buddy, dude?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Million views in three months is pretty wild. I just
appreciate everybody listening and give me a million view, you know,
a million views on the show Babies Being Born any second?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
So good week. I'd say, you're on top of the world.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Man.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
As Yeah, brother, I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
There isn't anybody I'd rather be doing with this with Jeordie,
So thank you so much. Yeah, appreciate it. All right,
enough of that, Okay, so let's dig into this. So
the first one, obviously, and I have pretty pretty deep
connections to New York City. My brother and his partner
live up there. My cousin lives up there with his partner.
(03:23):
My best friend, Mark Palermo lives up there. You know,
I've been going to New York for a long, long time,
long period. I love the city. I think it's one
of the most unique cities on the planet. It is
really the hub of all things that are really quite
quite cool about America and America's history. But man, there
(03:47):
is a propensity to wanna really test the boundaries of
democratic socialism. This week, there was a gentleman by the
name of Zohorn mom Don who won the Democratic primary
against many candidates, the most notable the former mayor Cuomo
(04:11):
or governor sorry, during the COVID crisis, and you know
he won. He won that thing.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
And would you do me a figure? And there's two.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Videos I want to play to just get everybody in
the right mindset for this, and all right, so go
ahead and play the one with his interview.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
With jen Zaki if he could. Jordi, Yes, here we go.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
You were running on issues that are very relevant to
people in New York City, the cost of housing, free bussing.
Some have projected. You know that this is the type
of platform that would work in other parts of the country.
I mean, you're a proud Democratic socialist. Do you think
that is a platform that would work for other candidates
running in other parts of the country.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
Absolutely. I think ultimately this is a campaign about inequality,
and you don't have to live in the most expensive
city in the country to have experienced that inequality. Because
it's a national issue and what Americans coast to coast
are looking for are people who will fight for them,
not just believe in the things that resonate with their lives,
but actually fight and deliver on those very things. And
(05:13):
part of how we got to this point was through
the endorsements of Congressman Alexandria Ocstu Cortes and Senator Bernie Sanders,
who've been leading this fight against oligarchy across the country.
And I think that in focusing on working people and
their struggles, we also return back to what makes so
many of us proud to be Democrats in the first place.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Awesome, all right, now, now that's great, and I love that,
and I love that he is a proud democratic socialist,
so we don't have to guess what is politics. He's
definitely attaching him to really definitive socialists out there, Bernie
Sanders and AOC. But there seems to be this interesting
trend also Geordie with in particular one of my favorite
(05:52):
things about AOC coming as a former bartender, and then
you know, there's that great video of her doing like
this rooftop dance in New York City, this sorority girl
dance or whatever it is, and going to really wealthy schools,
you know, and and if you're not familiar, uh zhn.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Attended the Fine Arts. Okay, well, he is.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
He is you know this this young man who's who's
an extreme advocate for uh social equalities and and lifting
up those who are impoverished, uh and giving more opportunity,
which I'm all for. I think that definitely needs to happen, uh,
mostly through better education and great job capabilities. But at
(06:41):
the same time, uh, you know, handing out free stuff
that people doesn't work. And socialism at its core is
a fundamentally communism, so you know, and that's what it
ultimately leads to.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
And and but the other.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Thing that I find interesting is is they always now
seem to have these millennial millennial candidates and younger no, no,
no offense there, brother, I always seem to have some
of these other interesting and and listen, man, I'm not
exactly uh the least eccentric person on the on the
on the on the block.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Either doing this, But play this video for me.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
And this is another uh interesting one out of out
of Zohron's background, another banger, another bank.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Go ahead, make a rap for you, nanny, if you
really going to track for you, make a wrap for
you nanny. Now it is catchy. I love it. I
think it's good catchy.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Uh you know, I think it's really good and and
uh you know, but again, you know, this guy is
pretty interesting man. You know, he immigrated. He's from uh you,
Gandan Indian descent. He came to New York when he
was seven years old. A Goddess citizenship in twenty eighteen,
(08:12):
and immediately after getting engaged with some you know, other
type of political activism, he ran for the New York
State Assembly for the thirty six District of Queens and
that was in twenty twenty one. You know, he's also
(08:33):
attended or or been involved in some other interesting political roles.
He joined the Democratic Socialists of America in twenty seventeen,
did campaign work for Kadar l Yatim, a Palestinian Lutheran minister,
(08:54):
for the New York City Council Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. He
served as campaign manager for asp Barkhan's bid for New
York State Senate. He was a field organist organized organizer
for Tiffany Coban's campaign for Queen's County District of Turtle
Attorney uh and form and also fellow Democratic Socialists. You know,
(09:17):
he's all about grassroots organizing and and really kind of
pushing forward this this chant or not chant per se,
but this idea that we need to lift up impoverished people,
give them more opportunities and create a more equal playing field.
And what's ironic is he's in the wealthiest city, uh
(09:39):
in in the country doing this.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
You know what's what a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Uh his campaign for this may mayoral campaign was was
pretty significant, right. I mean he had something like forty
five thousand people volunteer to support him, and he raised
seven million dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
You know that.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That's that's significant. And you know, I think what we're
seeing and this is something that I think is really
the key to evaluate here. Why are democratic socialists, Uh,
why are they gaining steam among the younger populations.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
They got great because they got great rat videos, Dude.
That and they promise a lot of free shit. That's
what it is, dude. Let's just get down to all right.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Let me just go through some of these right, rent freeze,
a rent freeze on rent, stabilizing units, and building affordable
social housing. We've heard that one transportation permanently eliminating fares
on city buses and improving bus efficiency with priority lanes.
I don't know about you, Jordi wins last time you
ever been to New York and driven in New York.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I avoided it at all costs.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Okay, dude, it is a pain in the ass drive
around New There's plenty of of bus lanes, traffic lanes,
bike lanes. I mean, the only people who don't have
access or people driving regular cars and paying taxes. Right,
he wants economic justice. He wants public childcare, city owned
grocery stores.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
This is the one.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Right that's the craziest one to me. That's that is
that's like communism with no veneer on it. You try
to hide it with like oh, like the Freedom for
Children you know act or something. This is like, yeah,
no owning the means of production. We're just going full
communist manifesto. It is what it is.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Well, it's like it's it's like step one in that
crazy evolution. Right is that the government? Well what it's
it's economic justice is step one. That's what they sell.
That's their bill of goods. That's what they want you
to believe. That there is a profound and utter economic
(11:54):
injustice in America now in certain industries. I think that's
it's apparent that there are some hurdles and criteria that
make it more difficult for entrance. But I firmly believe
that if you are a dedicated human being and you
go and you do your studies, you perform well. Especially
(12:15):
if you're underprivileged, minority, you're an immigrant, there are pathways
for you to achieve the highest possible trajectory to get
to an Ivy League school, to get out and to
integrate into a you know, top tier political movement or ideology.
That next thing, you know, you're the Democratic nominee for
(12:39):
the for the mayor of New York City. And I
also find it hilarious too, and it's kind of skipped
over this. You know, that dude attended Boden College up
in Maine, which is a seventy five thousand dollars a
year tuition, right, And I haven't been able to see
whether he's on student loans or how that work, but
obviously it's bizarre. And the same thing with aoc Here's
(13:00):
he went to you know, elite, elite schools, you know,
and now she's a person for the people, and it's
and it's and not that that's not acceptable politics, but
you know, these these ideas of like raising minimum wage
to thirty dollars per hour or uh, saying that they're
(13:22):
going to reduce police forcing and saying that they're going
to make gender affirming care for every single person who
wants in the city's going to pay for, I mean,
what you're having and what you're And it was funny, man,
because the kind of the responses that have taken place
on online. My favorite one there was an AI video
that had uh. They had Ron DeSantis, Governor DeSantis of Florida,
(13:47):
the great State of Florida, by the way, and they
had this jority where he was like, yes, we're gonna
build a moat of alligators on the state line. Uh.
And if you're from New York, when you're fleeing New
York after Democratic socialist Meyrit takes over, Right, who also
is a staunch supporter of the Free Palestine movement, has
(14:08):
said some pretty intense inflammatory remarks about that situation going
on over there. You know that there's gonna be like
a one percent tax automatically if you move in, if
you come down and anybody hears you make a Democratic
slash comment like in support that, you're automatically deported back
(14:29):
to New York. So it's just it's it's kind of
funny to me that this keeps happening.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
And now what is it from? I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
And so a lot of people are like, all right, well,
how can a city that has a really strong old
core democratic like like blue collar kind of old blue
dog Democrats, right, progressive Jews, labor unions right? And the
reality is is that immigration, in the evolution of that
(15:02):
immigration in particular in these boroughs, has generated to a
point where a lot of the old, the old constituents
are no longer in the majority there. And so you
have this voting block that comes from places that are
in quotations oppressed or seeking political asylum that are really
(15:25):
available to these type of socialist ideas, this type of
socialist ideology. And so what's going to happen when you
start And then you also have all these liberal, progressive
rich kids and other people that have attended these colleges
like Boden and like all these other places that they've
been indoctrinated into believing that America is fundamentally broken.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
The system's broken, everything's broken.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
And we need to tear it down and rebuilt it
on the in quotations demo, the foundation of democratic socialism,
which is Marxism all the way, all the way back,
no matter where you take it, it winds back at
Marx and angles. Right.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
I saw some tweet it was like, I wish my
parents were rich enough that I could believe in socialism.
I was like, yeah, that's about nails are right on
the head for you know, oh man, it's it's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
And I and I, but what you have is you
have a very real serious problem now. And because uh,
you know this fundamental uh of what this fundamental the
fundamentalism has permeated across all these different boroughs.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
You know, they're now getting ready to.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Have a openly uh, an open democratic socialist who has uh.
And in his recent comments, I don't know if you
heard this, and and but he he said in an
interview that if beab net and Yahoo were to step
foot in New York City for some United Nations, that
he would have the man arrested based on a lot
of the charges that have come out of you know,
(17:02):
international courts already out there. And and imagine if if
you're already pretty pretty scared about the dramatic increase in
anti Semitism spreading around New York in particular, Uh, you know,
the fact that he's going to openly saying that we're
(17:22):
going to do this. I mean, these are substantial, radical
policies for anybody who is running for any office, much
less office of a city that has eight million people
and is arguably one of the most significant cities on
the planet.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Well, that's what I'm concerned about. Listen.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
I'm not much of a city guy. I've lived in
big cities before, shout out Miami. But there's no question,
no matter what you said.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Three, five, I don't even yeah, let's go five.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
There's no question that New York City it's one of
the greatest cities in the entire world. And when I
see people like this come up and propose these policies,
for example, price controls at a grocery store, right, go
back through history, there's one way that goes. There's one
direction that goes, which is there's not enough food.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
And so I'm it's just shocking to me that a
city as great as New York, as great as it
should be and could be, is doing this to itself.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
It's like you're seeing your friend who's.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Going down a bad path, and no matter how much
you talk to him, he just keeps he just keeps
making bad decisions.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
You're like, what are you doing, dude? That's that's what
That's why I see it.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
I think everybody is sub susceptible to becoming an addict
for free shit. Right.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
The oldest playbook is the oldest playbook.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
One hundred percent convince everybody that you're you know, convinced
a large portion of of disenfranchised youth that they're they've
been oppressed and that the only way is to overthrow
the Now the term is oligarchy, billionaires or whatever. He
is proposing a one percent tax to pay for all
these on people that are multi millionaires and billionaires, you know,
(19:02):
that old thing that always seems to you know, get
out there. But you know, the the challenge is is
I think New York uh City, is you're on the
pretense of of something that could have really profound ramifications
to what degree we don't know. I still have you know,
like those people I mentioned, people I love dearly that
are in that city. You know, I'm gonna continue to
(19:26):
reach out and and see what goes on, and but uh,
I'm just hoping that uh New York City people will
awaken themselves to what the real threat is they're facing
and and get out there and vote for some common sense.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
But I'm not gonna definitely hold my breath on this one.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Yeah, maybe they'll become a thriving, beautiful, economically rich country
like Venezuela when they did that.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
You know, see, let's hope now, man, because I love
going to New York. Man, I don't want to happen. Yeah,
we'll see. All right, Okay, thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Sorry for the interruption, but we got to give our
advertisers their due time. And this is one of my
favorites to always provide you with some insight. If you're
a person like me, you like spicy food, right, all
my travel around the world has been incredible. I became
you know, I grew up with meat and potatoes in
my house, and once I started traveling overseas Thailand, Philippines,
(20:29):
the Middle East, I really gained a real desire to
have spicy food. Well, it's been sauces my whole life
up until recently where I was introduced to a good friend, now.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Alex and his company called Firecracker Farms.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Now, what they do is they combine, they infuse these
beautiful peppers that they raise personally with love and attention
on their own farm. They take that, break it down
and they infuse it into salt, and they have these
great salt shakers. Every morning I wake up with my eggs,
I put it on my steak, I put it on
my pork chops, you name it, and it gives that
little bit of kick in power that I just love
(21:06):
having on my food. Again, this is an incredible organizations.
It's family run business. Alex and his family do all
the work, send it all out and really is one
of the best products that I've ever had. I use
it daily and I highly recommend it. So just go

little bit of kick and spice. So please again go
visit Firecracker dot Farm.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Next story, and this is the one that I think
has radically grander ramifications on kind of just the nature
of where we're at politically in America, and it's kind
with all the other things that are going on Israel
Iran that I'll talk about here in a minute.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
You know, the New York thing.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
There's a big FED dust up that's brewing, and we're
hoping to We're going to do a big show on
the FED here coming up soon with a top economists.
I'm trying to get into his schedule and get him
on the show here soon. You know, there's this quiet
one from the one of the oversight committees in Congress
taking place, and they're doing this deep dive investigation into
(22:31):
Biden's auto pen scandal that's taking place now. If you're
not familiar, Steve Doocey kind of broke this a few
weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
He went back and analyzed.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Obviously, we know that Biden really came out in as
he was leaving his administration. There was massive controversy that one.
He pardoned Fauci dating all the way back to twenty fourteen,
which is kind of funny because that's exactly when the
(23:03):
COVID research in DARPA and that whole thing was beginning,
when gain a function research was off short Overseas Eco
Health Alliance. So Fauci was pardoned back to fourteen.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Then what was.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Another thing that you know, people, you know, the Democratic
pundits were you know, ferocious about their stance that there's
no way this would happen. But Biden basically pardoned his
entire family and all of the oversight that worked that
had been taking place with Comer and Jordan, which had
identified millions of dollars in payments from foreign entities made
(23:41):
to the Biden family, something like twenty seven million dollars
from China, Ukraine, the former mayor of Russia through I
think it was I don't know, I want to say
it was seventeen or twenty one different LLC's that had
been established with no concrete services provided whatsoever. I mean,
(24:04):
obviously he's selling his influence, right and pardon his son.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And then the big guy or the big Man or something,
the big guy, the big guy, yeah, the big guy. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Anyways, so this started for me really interesting because they
initiated these interviews and the first one that really stood
out last week was a guy named Anthony Bernal or Bernal, Yeah,
who was Jill Biden's chief of staff and one of
the you know, we had Jake Beck Tapper's book that
came out. Yeah, there to go refuses to testify tomorrow
(24:38):
on biden metal decline cover up investigation, and so they're
going to ask you a subpoena to force his testimony.
And you know, I think we already everybody in any
capacity already knew that Biden was his cognitive decline was
present from day one. If you didn't, you're lying to yourself.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Right.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
It's or Willian at its finest right there. You know,
whatever you're looking at isn't the truth. We'll tell you
what the truth is. And I think it's just obvious
that his it was it was this.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
So what is this crazy?
Speaker 3 (25:13):
What's crazy is that they tried to go after Trump
for the twenty fifth Amendment reasons right, that he was
not mentally fit. I'm like, man, that's the most pot
calling the kettle black thing I've ever heard in my life.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Alenski's rules, right, always accuse your enemy of what you're doing. Yeah,
and I think that's the standard playbook for these this crew. Well, anyway,
so he said I'm not testified, which was smart. Until
you give a subpoena, I'd never and then I'd plead
the fifth hands down every time, but the next one
(25:48):
and play this video this is This is a video
of near Tandeon.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Now I'll tell you who she is in a second.
But she was called in and gave some absolutely shocking
testimony to this oversight committee. Will you play that for me.
Here's a little clip. Here a brief comment.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Thank you. I just spoke with the House OVERSI Committee,
majority of Minority Council.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I answered every question.
Speaker 5 (26:14):
Was pleased to discuss my public service, and it was
a thorough process, and I'm glad I answered every question.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Was there an effort to disguise President Biden's condition? Absolutely no,
absolutely not absolutely no. Like she ditches off the side
now you know, you know she comes out and I
love that.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Oh yeah, I was. I was amenable as happy. Well,
you know what she did. She went under for a
five hour testimony and what ultimately came out of that.
And she was in charge of the Auto pen from
twenty twenty one October twenty twenty one to May twenty
twenty three and served as White House Secretary and senior advisor.
(27:01):
She confirmed she was responsible for managing the flow of
documents to and from the President during this period. So
they give you this little White House secretary, right, and
this is what's so brilliant about the Democratic Party and
how they cover up the true uh indication or the
true uh capabilities of their democratic operatives? Right now, and
(27:26):
just one sec'm make one more point in here, and
what was another thing that was fascinating was under this
testimony they kept pressing her and she got to a
point where it was, hey, uh, what what happened?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Once?
Speaker 6 (27:42):
Who?
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Who did you want? Who did you get the approval from?
Directly right? Who said yes, go ahead and apply the
autopen to this this sick this, pardon this whatever it was,
whatever document it needed to be signed. And she comes
out and she goes, I'm not sure. I'm not sure
who gave the final improvement. All I know as I
(28:04):
reached out to somebody in his inner circle, they gave
me the thing. I put the auto pen to work
and I sent it back and that's all I did.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
I don't know anything else, right, And.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
That seems like a legitimate response from a White House secretary, right?
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Aha? Though? Who is near attending? All right?
Speaker 1 (28:28):
This is the where things get a little tricky. So
who is she so near? Tannin was an a daughter
of Indian immigrants from Bedford, Massachusetts, Right, was raised by
a single mom, you know, very tough upbringing. But she
(28:51):
ended up graduating from Bedford High School in eighty eight
and she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from UCLA
in nineteen ninety two. And this is where she began
her political her political ambition, and she worked for the
Michael Ducaccus campaign in nineteen eighty eight. She received a
(29:11):
Juris doctorate a law degree from Yale Law School in
nineteen ninety six and served as a submissions editor for
the Yale Law and Policy Review. That's where things start
to really kickstart her political career.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Right, once you go.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
To Yale, Harvard, Cornell. Once you do all your pretty
much at Yale at Harvard, you go to law school there, right,
the doors automatically open.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
And the next thing she found herself.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
In the Clinton administration, where she had a rapid, rapid assent.
She was the Associate Director for Domestic Policy under Bill
Clinton nineteen ninety seven to ninety nine, where she was
a strong advocate for domestic policy. Work focused on issues
like tobacco control, education, children's health, insurance, women's health, and
(30:05):
family leave right, all things that were near and dear
to raising coming up as a being raised by a
single mom. Right. Then she became the senior policy advisor
to the First Lady, Hillary Clinton from ninety seven to
ninety nine. Why because they had already said, well, let's
have Clinton go out hold the public office and then
(30:28):
run for president as soon as she can, right, which
guess what she ended up doing. She served as the
deputy campaign manager and policy director for Hillary Clinton's successful
two thousand US Senate campaign. And just so you know,
she ran that Senate campaign against RF John F. Kennedy Junior,
(30:48):
who ended up mysteriously dying.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
In that plane.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Right.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
But I'm not going to go down all that.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
That's that I'm not going to be conspiracy conspiratorial to
my audience.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
We're just saying that if you were one, that's what
it would look like.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
If you were one that one.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
It's not to say I don't I don't read conspiracy
theories because they're so fascinating fun. But I certainly I'm
not gonna try and go down that rabbit hole with this,
all right. She was Legislative director of the election worked
at SENE Clinton's legislative director managing policy ptory priorities. Then
(31:30):
here's a kicker this is where I love it. Then
she goes to work for the Center for American Progress. Now,
if you're not familiar to the Center for American Progress
was a think tank started by John Podesta to be
a counter policy think tank for the Heritage Foundation and
was just started in two thousand and three, where she
(31:51):
served as a senior vice president of domestic policy. She
was the president and CEO from twenty eleven to twenty
twenty one. That's a long run of policy. Now, if
you're not familiar why these places are so impactful, I
always again I direct you to go listen to some
of the stuff that Mike Ben's has put on put
(32:12):
out there about how NGOs work in influencing policy mandate directions.
So what you'll have is you'll have, and this is
the right and the left, you'll have one of these
think tanks that'll be heavily influenced by people that were
on formal political campaigns or part of campaigns, working in
senior positions within the White House or government. They finish
(32:36):
their government work, they go work for the think tanks,
and then they're what they do is they write policy
papers that then they give and they use lobby firms
to go to people in Congress, in the House and
the Senate, and they push these policy paper or give
or pay or offer these policy papers to people who
then bring them forth to present as bills so that
(32:59):
they can and a great bill get it signed.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
They do great.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
They're pushing policy forward right which is basically the continuation
of what the previous administrations. And then it's how they
stay connected into the government right now. One of the
interesting things about the CAPS Advocacy arm they have a
pretty unique donor influence over the years Bain Capital, Blackstone,
(33:24):
and several other massive financial institutions. They've also hosted events
for net and Yahoo and others. She actually and when
she was took under the Obomba administration, she went to
work for them. She was the senior Advisor to Health
(33:45):
Reform at the Department of Health and Human Services from
twenty nine to eleven. And you know, she really has
always been floating in kind of the internal apparatus of
the highest echelon of the Democratic Party, which is the
Clintons in the Obamas. You know, she was again a
senior aide to Clinton's campaign in sixteen. You know, after
(34:10):
the loss, Clinton did not run for her office, and
she went back to cap for brought her policy mandates
and running that organization. Now in twenty twenty one, she
was nominated for the Office of Management and Budget twenty
twenty to twenty one. Now under her Senate confirmation hearings,
(34:31):
which were a blast, and I watched some of these.
She had put out obviously some pretty inflammatory tweets back
in the day, calling people out in pretty dramatic ways. Well,
all of these senators came back and said, is this
your tweet? Is this your tweet? How can you be biased?
Speaker 2 (34:46):
And all this? So she got shut down. So what'd
they do?
Speaker 1 (34:50):
What'd they do under the Biden administration of a cognitively
impaired president. We're going to make her a White House secretary. Yeah,
So you have one of the most significant political operatives
in the last thirty years, who's come up through the ranks,
who's worked with the most senior people, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton,
(35:15):
John Podesta, the Obamas, right, the Center for American Progress,
all of their affiliations, their connections, which was also the
other one I didn't talk about, is they received substantial
funding from George Soros in his organization. I still haven't
found any and if they've got any government funding yet.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
But I don't think we could do that. See if that,
see if.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
The if they've ever received any the Center for American Progress,
See if they ever received any government funding from USAID
or the State Department or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
If you could for me. All right, So here is
a person that.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
You know, has it's been an intense political operative who
now is a secretary in the White House, who's in
charge of the auto pen and comes out and says, yeah,
I definitely was in charge of it.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
I was doing it. Uh.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
You know there was one in particular where Biden was
on vacation down in the Islands and there was a
pardon administered and they're calling that out because she was
in charge of it.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Did he have authorization?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
And I think, you know, again, this goes back to
what this goes back to all of the stuff that
we've talked about in earlier shows, Right, Geordie is all right,
let's get to it, man, Let's let's let's put these
people under legal oath. Let's make them answer questions under
subpoena to the penalty of perjury, to the penalty of
(36:45):
the law. And if there's something there, man, Let's let's
get an investigation going now. I'm I'm hopeful that Pambondi
and Cash Betel are already doing an investigation into this scandal,
because if this is true, I want you to I
want you to realize.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
The impact of this.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
If this is true, we already know Biden was cognitively declined,
right Jake Tapper's book confirmed that. All these other people
have confirmed it. We already know that's true. We already
know that pretty much. There was Susan Rice, who was
a former Obama senior administration I mean inner circle.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
She was involved in it.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
You know, John Podessa was brought back in Clinton advisor,
so we know all of the people surrounding Biden. We
her political operatives from Clinton's and Obama's. And now this woman,
who is one of the senior members of that establishment,
was in charge of the auto pen right that warrants investigation,
(37:43):
and if that's true, that essentially means everything that we
saw come out of the Biden administration, fiscal policy, foreign
affairs pardons, all of these things about shutting down different
aspects of financial drilling, all these things, and then more importantly,
(38:10):
the un restrictive warfare political warfare that was waged against
Donald Trump starting in twenty sixteen, from the FBI, from
the CIA, from DOJ. Right, these people are all tied
to this, and so what you have to start to
(38:31):
do is to take a step back and allow yourself
to start connecting these pieces, right, because what's taking place,
and I'm my internal suspicion is that it's much grander
than any one particular party, But I think the Democratic
Party has had the greatest stranglehold on our political institutions
(38:54):
since really Clinton. Right, And what you have is you
have a conspiracy.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
That's so there it is.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
There's that word again, right, Maybe not a conspirat, maybe
a Rico case or something like that.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
What's the legal term conspiracy?
Speaker 1 (39:10):
Is good?
Speaker 2 (39:10):
That's fine. Hey, did you find that thing on?
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Did they get receive any federal funding?
Speaker 3 (39:16):
They have not received any direct significant government funding as
primary because primary revenue comes from charitable contributions, with over
ninety six percent from individuals and foundations, two percent from
labor unions corporations.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
But they've it does say.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
However, they've engaged with government related activities, such as receiving
small amounts of foreign government funding for specific events. Conferences supported,
so it's not directly but right next to.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Let me tell you how this works.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Okay, So let's say I'm I'm a foreign government all right,
whatever government X is, and I want to get my
voice heard to somebody on the inner circle. So you
have these nonprofits, these NGOs. They say, Hey, we're going
to have this function X at this you know, you know,
(40:08):
five star hotel in New York City. We're having this
beautiful panel of expert people on you know, all the
different things that we're talking about. We're going to have
the head of some giant asset management fund.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
We're going to have a head of a bank.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
We're going to have ahead of some policy or a
think tank. We're going to have former political people from
the House and the Senate, maybe even a former president
or two. Talk right, what's your donation at this for
this event? Oh, here's here's five hundred thousand, here's a
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Well, all right, then guess what.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
You come to their event and we're going to give
you four hours in meetings directly with these politicians or
people that have political influence. That's the way this whole
thing works. And it's on both sides. Everybody's equal. Everybody
does it. But that's the way it works. If you
want to get your voice heard, you got to pay
somebody to do it. And I don't care. And that's
(41:06):
that goes all the way down to municipalities and it sucks,
and all of that needs to be, you know, wide
open in terms of its transparency. But that's the way
the political system works and it ain't going to change
anytime soon. So just know that this is the process
of how it works. So you have this autopen thing
(41:26):
which could be on a scale unlike anything we've ever
seen before, but it's in part of a grander conspiracy
to really kind of uh stop, kind of a populist
nationalist movement in America, make America great again, right, the
MAGA movement which is now become essentially the rising political
(41:52):
movement of America American policy led by President Donald Trump.
So that's what this is. That's why it's real, that's
why it's critical to understand this. All Right, what's next, Jeordy?
What what are we doing now?
Speaker 2 (42:06):
Bud? I don't know, but I need an autopen want one?
What are you gonna sign what?
Speaker 1 (42:12):
Like? What do you whose signature are you gonna sign
What if you can auto autopen anybody's signature, what would
it be.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
Wouldn't you just find like a rich person's bank account
or something like that and say they wrote you a
check for a million dollars or something and just just
autopen it.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
Yeah, that's that's h Bernie made off, right, that's less Weckner,
Epstein and Les Wexner. Uh. I think the autopen happens
quite a bit. And it's called pyramid schemes, right, perm
that was a jump that was that was not funny.
But yes, auto pens are great, but power of attorney,
(42:49):
I think it's the same thing. What I don't want
is I don't want Jordy, you go for it, but
I don't want the president having an auto pen.
Speaker 2 (42:56):
I think that needs to be outlawed.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
Yeah, we lived apparently we live for in a lie
for four years. So that's not great to hear.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Yeah, that that's that's uh, that's disturbing.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
All right, we will get back on more on that.
All right.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
Once again, sorry for the interruption, but I just really
uh want to just tell you about we're really excited
Jeordie and I and the team at at at at

trying to understand fear because the core of what frog lot,
the frog Logic concepts are and this is the motivational
(43:59):
teaching and training and coaching that I've been doing for
the last thirty years. The fundamental starting point is learning
to embrace your fear. There's no such thing as fearless.
You can't get rid of fear. You're wired for it.
You've been taught it your whole lives. So what you
have to be able to do is learn how to
embrace it. And what I've done is broken this down
into five missions or five training modalities, with four sub
(44:20):
steps under each one. It's a five month course that
you should do. It's journal based. Sign up for this
course and I promise you you will learn first to
understand your fear. Then you will learn to accept what
your fear is. Then you will learn to retrain your
brain to deal with fear. Then you will learn to
how to test your fear day in and day out,
(44:41):
and then finally, ultimately you will begin to live with
courage and be able to embrace that fear as a
motivational tool to help you accomplish all your purpose, all
your dreams in your life. Again, I've been working on
this for a long long time. We're happy to re
release it. We will now follow up that with more
curriculum in the future here soon called the Forging Self
(45:04):
Confidence Curriculum, Team Life Curriculum, and then finally Live with
Purpose curriculum, And those are the four main co constructs
of the core Frog Logic teaching curriculum that we've developed.
So please go visit David Rutherford dot com and sign
up for your Embrace Fear course today. Who Yah, welcome back.
Speaker 2 (45:26):
This is the doozy portion of it.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
Obviously, I've been hit up constantly people wanting me to
really give some analysis and my thoughts on what's taking
place in Israel, and I ran, as I said before,
I did do a quick hit on Sean Hannity's radio show.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
This week, you could check that out.
Speaker 1 (45:46):
And I discussed just the prowess of the US military,
the capabilities of the strikes, and I'll talk about that
and here in a little bit, but you know, I
didn't really give it a chance to give my opinion,
which I well here second, but I just as a recap.
The so called twelve Day War began on June twelfth,
(46:09):
where the the I A e A came out, led
by US, UK, France. Germany passed a resolution that said
that Iran was non compliant with their evaluation. But they
did say the Director General, Raphael Grossi, states that there
was no proof of Iran pursuing a nuclear weapon, and
(46:34):
that also kind of co Telsey Gabbert had given a
presentation in front of Congress saying that there was. They
did they didn't have any conclusive proof that they were
close through a weapon a few months ago, which then
she's retracted and they said, yeah, they do believe that
they had more there on newer intelligence. Well late that evening,
(46:57):
Israel launched a massive surprise attack on Iran's nuclear facilities
and military leadership, and they called it Operation Rising Lion.
On June thirteenth, the air strikes continued by Israel, targeting
sites at in Tons, FDOH and Isfran as well as
(47:20):
military command centers. And they were trying to wipe out
the upper ashline of of the IRGC of nuclear scientists.
I mean they were trying to chop the head off
the snake for sure. That night, i Ran retaliated with
over one hundred drones and ballistic missiles targeting Iran, most
(47:41):
of which were intercepted by the Iron Dome, NET and
Yaho States. The strikes were planned since September, delayed from
April to allow US diplomatic efforts. All right, and Trump
had come out and said, hey, we're giving you in
sixty days to come to the table and negotiate. So
all this has taken place, well, it just kept escalating
(48:02):
from there right June fourteenth, Israel expands strikes to Iran's
energy sector. I Ran in authority reports two hundred and
twenty four deaths in Tehran. The Colemane of valve severe punishment.
June fifteenth, Israel conducts third day of air strikes. I
Ran Health minister reports four hundred and thirty civilian deaths
(48:24):
over three thousand injuries. That's when President finally started to say,
you know, hey, let's negotiate, let's get a deal, let's
end the conflict. June sixteenth, i Ran launches a barrage
of missiles, one striking apartment complex, panic grips Tehran as
Israel warren civilians to evacuate Tehran. This thing just kept
(48:47):
building and building, back and forth. June seventeenth through the eighteen,
more missiles fired from back and forth. Diplomatic talks in
Geneva failed to yield the breakthrough. June nineteenth, Iranian missile
tacks diminished, possibly due to degraded capabilities. I Ran blocks
(49:10):
Internet access for over twelve hours. June twentieth, Israel continues
strikes net. Yahoo claimed Iran's nuclear program military capabilities called
Operation Historic have been debilitated. And then here it is
June twenty second, the US joins the conflict using many
(49:32):
thirty thousand pounds bunker buster bombs and essentially has come
out and said that the US in this massive strike
that involved all different types of military assets, all different
ballistic cruise missiles, from the ocean, from subs, we had
(49:55):
the B two bomber strikes that we decimated the Iranian capability.
Speaker 2 (50:04):
Then after that.
Speaker 1 (50:06):
On the twenty third, I ran had a limited launch
strike against the usl you did air basing Katar, prompting
a real backlash because he had essentially said Trump had
(50:27):
come out and said, hey, he'd negotiated his ceasefire. They
did this prior to now it has come out that
they said that there was prior knowledge. They gave it
kind of a heads up to Qatar, which then told us,
and then later on Israel launched another attack right right
before the ceasefire, and that's where we got to the
(50:49):
place where I woke up and Trump is dropping f
bombs about these two nations.
Speaker 2 (50:55):
Don't know what the f they're doing. I think after that, the.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
Ceasefire has held, both coming out, you know, Israel and
the US with substantial claims for victory that they have
completely knocked back their capabilities for years, saying it will
take years to rebuild. So that's where we are to date.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (51:27):
I think what I really want to let everybody know
is is my thoughts, and my thoughts are this. I
think one, you know, there was a massive split that
took place on the right because of this. There was
a large group of people saying that this is the
dumbest thing that we could ever do is wage or
(51:48):
start or be involved in this in this you know,
very regional conflict between Israel and Iran, you know, and
saying this is not our war, we should not get involved.
We cannot get in another for hour war in this area.
And this is a lot based on the monumental failures
of regime change policy from Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Soudan.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
Yeah, man, you name it.
Speaker 1 (52:19):
All of these, if you look at them, have been
a tactical failure to the tune of essentially eight to
nine trillion dollars in debt. And the one that really
is hard for me is all of my friends who
died engaged in those wars overseas, plus all of my
friends who are feeling, including myself, the impact from those
(52:42):
actions in the long term effects of going to war
for that long. Most of the I think the rallying
cries were coming from the Gwatt veterans, in particular, a
lot of guys that I'm friends with and follow online
who had very valid points. Now, the other side of
this is the people that are are staunch supporters of
(53:06):
Israel as our one prominent significant ally in the region,
and they're saying, hey, you know this is an existential threat.
You have these Ayatolas since seventy nine have been chanting
death to America, Death to America. They've been actively engaged
in spons the largest this is the term everybody used,
(53:27):
the largest state sponsor of terrorism with Hamas, HESBLA, a
lot of these other groups in the area. I certainly
know that that friends of mine faced a lot of
technology v BID and ID technology taught around, you know,
to certain rebel groups in Iraq that were taught by
(53:48):
the Kods force and how to make these and so
there were Americans that have been you could say, the
Beirut attacks.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
So there is a long line of ration coming out
of Iran and.
Speaker 1 (54:01):
Its proxies, and these people were saying, listen, and you
know this is it. We have to get rid of
these people. These people on this side then were coming
back and said, well, this has been the stated goal
for Israel in particular NET and Yahoo since the nineties.
Speaker 2 (54:17):
And what he's always been saying.
Speaker 1 (54:20):
Is that they're right on the pack capacity of a
nuclear weapon, and they're five weeks away, ten weeks.
Speaker 2 (54:26):
Away, they're one year away, and we got to get
rid of them.
Speaker 1 (54:29):
You know, So these people are in this massive conflict,
and what I've really found striking was that it I
think it has caused a real rift.
Speaker 2 (54:39):
In the MAGA movement.
Speaker 1 (54:40):
I mean, there is now a definitive crack in some
of the most predominant pundits that were formerly joined in
the support of President Trump and what he's doing now.
I want to praise the military, these people that conducted
this operation, which, by the way, it just came out
in a press release a press conference earlier with Pete
(55:01):
Hegseth and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Dan Kine,
that this operation had been in planning for fifteen years
and they actually developed unique technology to be able to
penetrate the depth of what needed to penetrate in order
to really have an impact on you know, because you know,
(55:22):
it was built underneath this mountain, so you had to
really get down into and they developed technology for this.
Speaker 2 (55:28):
You know.
Speaker 1 (55:28):
One of the quotes is that these people have lived
this target for fifteen years. And then there was the
other really cool thing and I'm really beginning to fall
in love with this fall in love that's extreme, but
you know, it's just nice to see strong leaders that
are supportive of the military and what we're here to
do as war fighters. And that's Dan Keane and so
(55:48):
he praised, you know, the young guys that were on
that base that I ran was sent missiles to and
their reaction. So JORDI, can you play that clip, because
I just thought this was a great representation support for our.
Speaker 2 (56:01):
Young men and women that are out there on the
front lines.
Speaker 6 (56:05):
Folks had moved off the base to extend the security
perimeter out away from what we assessed might be a
target zone. Except for a very few Army soldiers at
alu Ded at that point, only two Patriot batteries remained
on base, roughly forty four American soldiers responsible for defending
(56:29):
the entire base to include Sencom's forward headquarters in the
Middle East, an entire air base, and all the US
forces there. The oldest soldier was a twenty eight year
old captain. The youngest was a twenty one year old
private who'd been in the military for less than two years.
(56:50):
So let's put ourselves out there for a second. Imagine
you're that young first lieutenant. You're twenty five or twenty
six years old, and you've been assigned as the tactical
director inside the command and control element. You at that
age are the sole person responsible to defend this base.
Speaker 2 (57:11):
Listening next to.
Speaker 6 (57:12):
You as your early warning operator whose job is to
notify you of imminent attack. There's five people inside a
vehicle and five people outside of a vehicle around these
a total of as.
Speaker 2 (57:24):
I said, forty four.
Speaker 6 (57:26):
By the way, you've sat in the Middle East for years,
deployed over and over again, extended multiple times, always being prepared,
but unsure of when that particular day will come that
you must execute your mission and not fail at doing it.
Speaker 2 (57:45):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (57:46):
I just what I love to see is I love
to see the leadership praising the young men and women
that are doing the job, that are have their lives
on the line, that don't have any control of the
policy what's going on, but they're there every day, day
in and day out, in those shitholes around the around
the world, and they're at their best. And I just
just kudos to all you that are serving out there.
Speaker 5 (58:07):
Man.
Speaker 1 (58:08):
I love you, We all believe in you, we support you,
and we just thank you for your dedication. And you know,
those the pilots that flew for thirty seven hours, the
people that did flew the fueling planes, the people that
were on launching and loading the cruise missiles into their
launch mechanisms. You know, I mean, these people are dedicated,
(58:30):
and they really are, and I just want to commend
them and really, you know, say thank you for what
you did.
Speaker 2 (58:39):
You know.
Speaker 1 (58:39):
My opinion on this is I think Trump's actions. Although
I am a staunchly opposed to any new ground fighting
or any engagement in another war in the Middle East,
I do not want to see that. I don't think
you can have a regime change in Iran. This is
(59:00):
an old culture. They are dedicated to this way of life.
If that's gonna happen. If you think you're going to
go in and just change this country of ninety million
plus people, you're out of your mind.
Speaker 2 (59:11):
It's not gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (59:12):
I don't believe it would benefit the United States in
any way, shape or form that we it's going to
benefit us. However, I do think this strike was necessary
for Trump's ability on the global stage right as a
man that ran conclusively on the position that I am
(59:39):
going to end the wars in Ukraine and Russia. I'm
going to end the war in Israel in Gaza, you know,
in him not being able to have any meaningful movement
in all of that. Right, we saw talks breakdown in
Ukraine Russia a few months ago with their big surprise
drone attack hitting military basis. I think this puts him
(01:00:00):
back in a very positive position of of strategic strength
in in in the prowess of America's might, right that
we can conduct one of these UH incredible, tactically superior
strikes that have massive destabilizing and debilitating effects on the
(01:00:21):
military capacity of a major country and a major player
in the region. And so I think it was a
benefit long term. UH for sure, we definitely don't need
to have any more people that are are are staunchly
opposed to America having nuclear weapons. What I would like
(01:00:45):
to see is, I would I would like to see
UH is Israel join the I A E A.
Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
I would like them to contribute.
Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
To UH some type of acknowledgment of their nuclear program.
I think that's fair. I think it puts everybody equally
on the table. I think it's it's it's a legitimate
argument to make, but also great. You know, they have
every right to to act as they they they need
to to defend their sovereignty, to defend whatever they think.
(01:01:16):
But I do know that there are some some challenges
that they're facing. Obviously, Trump released a post on True
Social acknowledging that net and Yahoo has been called in
to the by the Supreme Court to answer questions on
this massive corruption probe that has been going on in
(01:01:38):
his career for many, many, many years. Trump came out
to defend him and said, as a person himself, who
was you know attacked politically for years and years and years,
and a lot of these attacks were fabricated.
Speaker 2 (01:01:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:01:53):
I don't know very much about the I know there's
a documentary out there about this somewhere. I need to
do more research on what it is. But you know,
prior to October seventh, there was a large call for
net Yahoo to be removed from power. The President has
come in and to defend him and to say, hey,
this should stop this investigation. Net Yahoo is your greatest
(01:02:17):
wartime leader you've had. So there is still a strong
support between the United States and Israel in their current situation.
Speaker 2 (01:02:26):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:02:26):
One was interesting is that right after this massive operation
and hopefully to cease fire, sticks I'm really praying for that.
We don't need any more bloodshed between those two nations.
Trump went to a major NATO summit over in Europe
and was able to have a very successful trip. Right.
(01:02:47):
He was able to get commitment from the NATO countries
in Europe of a five percent GDB increase towards military spending,
which was huge. He did get I don't know what specific.
I don't think a lot of this had come out
or I haven't seen it that Zelensky came out and
said he he's more amenable to peace negotiations now. I
don't know what you're gonna do with Yeah, thanks for
(01:03:10):
posting that.
Speaker 2 (01:03:11):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
I've had a long and he says this for listeners
I had. This is from Zelensky. I had a long
and substantiative meeting with President Trump. We covered all the
truly important issues. I thank mister President. I think the
United States. We discussed how to achieve a cease fire
and a real peace. We spoke about how to protect
our people. We appreciate the attention and the readiness to
help bring peace closer.
Speaker 2 (01:03:33):
Details will fall. Man. That's a much different one, Jordy,
than this meeting in the in the White House last time,
I mean, I think.
Speaker 1 (01:03:40):
And what was awesome is the little guy actually put
on a suit for this meeting, which was cool. I
was glad to see he's he's tightening the ship, knowing
that now old Daddy is dropping bombs and his use
as making his authority here. And that's the last video
I want to show in all this. Mark Route, who
was the former head of the European Union who became
(01:04:03):
the head of NATO, was in an interview where basically
made the comment that Trump Trump was talking about, you know,
Israel and Iran as two you know, school bullies on
the playground that just kept hitting each other. And then
Mark Root suggested that, yeah, Daddy had to come in
and solve the problem.
Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
Can you play that clip for me, George.
Speaker 7 (01:04:26):
It's from Skynees, Mark Ritter, the NATO chief who is
your friend. He called you daddy earlier. Do you regard
your NATO allies as kind of children?
Speaker 2 (01:04:40):
No, he likes me. I think he likes me. If
he doesn't, I'll let you know. I'll come back and
I'll hit him hard. Okay, he did, he did it.
Very affectionate. Daddy. Here, my daddy.
Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
Dude, the one thing I love most is Trump as
the president that just keeps keeps giving us the best
memes on the planet. In fact, the White House actually
made a post of him returning and they they actually
use the term Daddy's home.
Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Do you have that, georgy? Oh, we have it. I
just want to get some attention. I want to be
out up in Yeah, you see, all right, all right,
(01:05:33):
that's good. That's good, dude.
Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
I'm telling you, if you're watching all of this, I
hope you're gaining some entertainment. And I know all this
is incredibly serious. It's putting a lot of pressure. That
talks about World War three, that talks about the destabilization
of the nation, what we're facing all that, But man,
who's ever run in that White House? Social media is
(01:05:56):
a real hero for me. I mean, you're they're trying
to bring levity to all the since the New Era.
It's how things are done. Trump is an endless meme
provider and giver, right, shorty. I mean, it's just endless,
endless gold.
Speaker 3 (01:06:09):
I'm going to I'm going to miss him because man
X has never been more fun than when Trump's president.
Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
Yeah, right for sure.
Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Now again, I just want to, you know, talk about
there's still a lot of unknowns with all of these things.
We promise to keep you assessed. We'll come back or
try and keep doing these weekend reviews. We hope we're
offering a great consolidation of information, and again that's our real,
real mandate to try and bring as much together for
(01:06:40):
you to help you kind of understand the landscape of
all this and then to give a limited opinion about
what I feel. And so what I think is America
is in a great spot. I think we potentially helped
avoid a broader scale outbreak that's long term yet to
(01:07:00):
be seen. There's always going to be fighting in the region.
I just want you to understand that this is ideological
in nature. These people have been feuding with each other
in the modern era really since you know, Israel began
its campaigned to establish itself as its own state. I
don't see any end of this feud in the future.
(01:07:22):
Hopefully what we can do is with this new establishment
of Trump's prowess in the region, maybe we can orchestrate
some type of solution that's indicative of something prior to
the nineteen sixty seven war, and maybe a two state solution.
Speaker 2 (01:07:38):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 1 (01:07:39):
I mean, obviously the Abrahamic Accords were an interesting start.
It does seem that there are more Middle Eastern countries
that are a lot more prone to these discussions. But
you also have part of the Crescent Moon over there
in terms of Turkey and Pakistan and Iran that all
seemed to be in the same camp in terms of
(01:08:03):
their stance on being anti Israel. So what we really
need is time, and time will play out, and I
hope that we see a lot better foreign policy, a
lot more diplomacy, and a lot more strength through power
(01:08:24):
that we witnessed with Trump in this particular operation. So
I hope you enjoyed. Thank you again for tuning in listen.
The biggest thing that really helps us the most is you.
Speaker 2 (01:08:36):

(01:09:43):
in review, buddy, and just again we want to thank you.
We want to thank God, Thank Christ, thank our family members.
And one last thing, if y'all could, we'd love to
feel your prayers for Jordy and his beautiful wife as
they're getting ready to to welcome their baby girl here

(01:10:07):
days or hours.
Speaker 3 (01:10:09):
That's right, we'll see due tomorrow, so we'll see what
the baby's timeline is, because that's apparently my timeline.
Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
It's God's timeline. Brother, all right, thank you all very much,
God speed,
The New York City Mayor's race, the autopen fiasco, I
ran Israel, and Colin Trump your daddy.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
This is the week in review on The David Rutherford Show.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Welcome everybody, your host David Rutherford on The David Rutherford Show.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Man, we can't thank you enough.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
And I just I'm here with Jordy and first, before
we even get into this nutty week again, I just
think we're living in the consummate tsunami of craziness right now.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
JORDI are you Are you feeling the same way, dude?
Speaker 3 (00:38):
The President's cursing on TV. We got music videos saying,
daddy's home. I don't know what's happening, dude, Dude. I
got contacted.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
They wanted me to do a hit on Sean Hannity's
radio show, and I like had this whole piece out
that I was like, you know, I woke up in
the morning. I was stoked there was peace in the
Middle East, and now all of a sudden, I woke
up with Trump dropping f bombs about about how they're
both jacked up for breaking the truth and all this,
(01:09):
and I was just like, thankfully I didn't get the opportunity,
but yeah, it's it's it's just another continuation of a
really wild time that we're living in, you know. And again,
I think one of the great challenges is that we
all feel kind of this uneasiness. And I think, you know,
(01:31):
one of the things that Jordy and I try and
do with all of you is is try and just
give some clarity to it, with some common sense, and
to try and be that flashbang of truth for you
on certain things.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
And you know, it's it's It's not always easy, though,
is it, Jordy. Dude.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I thought it was easy one week, and then it
just always gets harder. So we'll see it can't get
crazier than that. And then I hear Dad, I'm like, okay,
all right, clown world.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Awesome, all right.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Before we do that, though, I just I, Jordan and
I really want to thank.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
iHeartMedia.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
We want to thank Buck and Clay because this week
we had a milestone for our new show and we
crossed over a million downloads in three months. And man,
I'll tell you what, what a great feeling. And for
me specifically, we did it with the Pat Craft show,
(02:30):
the athletic director for Penn State, which is a wonderful
guy really doing amazing things there.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
But Jordy, dude, how's it feel, buddy, dude?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Million views in three months is pretty wild. I just
appreciate everybody listening and give me a million view, you know,
a million views on the show Babies Being Born any second?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
So good week. I'd say, you're on top of the world.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Man.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
As Yeah, brother, I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
There isn't anybody I'd rather be doing with this with Jeordie,
So thank you so much. Yeah, appreciate it. All right,
enough of that, Okay, so let's dig into this. So
the first one, obviously, and I have pretty pretty deep
connections to New York City. My brother and his partner
live up there. My cousin lives up there with his partner.
(03:23):
My best friend, Mark Palermo lives up there. You know,
I've been going to New York for a long, long time,
long period. I love the city. I think it's one
of the most unique cities on the planet. It is
really the hub of all things that are really quite
quite cool about America and America's history. But man, there
(03:47):
is a propensity to wanna really test the boundaries of
democratic socialism. This week, there was a gentleman by the
name of Zohorn mom Don who won the Democratic primary
against many candidates, the most notable the former mayor Cuomo
(04:11):
or governor sorry, during the COVID crisis, and you know
he won. He won that thing.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
And would you do me a figure? And there's two.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Videos I want to play to just get everybody in
the right mindset for this, and all right, so go
ahead and play the one with his interview.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
With jen Zaki if he could. Jordi, Yes, here we go.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
You were running on issues that are very relevant to
people in New York City, the cost of housing, free bussing.
Some have projected. You know that this is the type
of platform that would work in other parts of the country.
I mean, you're a proud Democratic socialist. Do you think
that is a platform that would work for other candidates
running in other parts of the country.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
Absolutely. I think ultimately this is a campaign about inequality,
and you don't have to live in the most expensive
city in the country to have experienced that inequality. Because
it's a national issue and what Americans coast to coast
are looking for are people who will fight for them,
not just believe in the things that resonate with their lives,
but actually fight and deliver on those very things. And
(05:13):
part of how we got to this point was through
the endorsements of Congressman Alexandria Ocstu Cortes and Senator Bernie Sanders,
who've been leading this fight against oligarchy across the country.
And I think that in focusing on working people and
their struggles, we also return back to what makes so
many of us proud to be Democrats in the first place.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Awesome, all right, now, now that's great, and I love that,
and I love that he is a proud democratic socialist,
so we don't have to guess what is politics. He's
definitely attaching him to really definitive socialists out there, Bernie
Sanders and AOC. But there seems to be this interesting
trend also Geordie with in particular one of my favorite
(05:52):
things about AOC coming as a former bartender, and then
you know, there's that great video of her doing like
this rooftop dance in New York City, this sorority girl
dance or whatever it is, and going to really wealthy schools,
you know, and and if you're not familiar, uh zhn.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Attended the Fine Arts. Okay, well, he is.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
He is you know this this young man who's who's
an extreme advocate for uh social equalities and and lifting
up those who are impoverished, uh and giving more opportunity,
which I'm all for. I think that definitely needs to happen, uh,
mostly through better education and great job capabilities. But at
(06:41):
the same time, uh, you know, handing out free stuff
that people doesn't work. And socialism at its core is
a fundamentally communism, so you know, and that's what it
ultimately leads to.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
And and but the other.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Thing that I find interesting is is they always now
seem to have these millennial millennial candidates and younger no, no,
no offense there, brother, I always seem to have some
of these other interesting and and listen, man, I'm not
exactly uh the least eccentric person on the on the
on the on the block.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Either doing this, But play this video for me.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
And this is another uh interesting one out of out
of Zohron's background, another banger, another bank.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Go ahead, make a rap for you, nanny, if you
really going to track for you, make a wrap for
you nanny. Now it is catchy. I love it. I
think it's good catchy.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Uh you know, I think it's really good and and
uh you know, but again, you know, this guy is
pretty interesting man. You know, he immigrated. He's from uh you,
Gandan Indian descent. He came to New York when he
was seven years old. A Goddess citizenship in twenty eighteen,
(08:12):
and immediately after getting engaged with some you know, other
type of political activism, he ran for the New York
State Assembly for the thirty six District of Queens and
that was in twenty twenty one. You know, he's also
(08:33):
attended or or been involved in some other interesting political roles.
He joined the Democratic Socialists of America in twenty seventeen,
did campaign work for Kadar l Yatim, a Palestinian Lutheran minister,
(08:54):
for the New York City Council Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. He
served as campaign manager for asp Barkhan's bid for New
York State Senate. He was a field organist organized organizer
for Tiffany Coban's campaign for Queen's County District of Turtle
Attorney uh and form and also fellow Democratic Socialists. You know,
(09:17):
he's all about grassroots organizing and and really kind of
pushing forward this this chant or not chant per se,
but this idea that we need to lift up impoverished people,
give them more opportunities and create a more equal playing field.
And what's ironic is he's in the wealthiest city, uh
(09:39):
in in the country doing this.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
You know what's what a lot of people.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Uh his campaign for this may mayoral campaign was was
pretty significant, right. I mean he had something like forty
five thousand people volunteer to support him, and he raised
seven million dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
You know that.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That's that's significant. And you know, I think what we're
seeing and this is something that I think is really
the key to evaluate here. Why are democratic socialists, Uh,
why are they gaining steam among the younger populations.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
They got great because they got great rat videos, Dude.
That and they promise a lot of free shit. That's
what it is, dude. Let's just get down to all right.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Let me just go through some of these right, rent freeze,
a rent freeze on rent, stabilizing units, and building affordable
social housing. We've heard that one transportation permanently eliminating fares
on city buses and improving bus efficiency with priority lanes.
I don't know about you, Jordi wins last time you
ever been to New York and driven in New York.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I avoided it at all costs.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Okay, dude, it is a pain in the ass drive
around New There's plenty of of bus lanes, traffic lanes,
bike lanes. I mean, the only people who don't have
access or people driving regular cars and paying taxes. Right,
he wants economic justice. He wants public childcare, city owned
grocery stores.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
This is the one.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Right that's the craziest one to me. That's that is
that's like communism with no veneer on it. You try
to hide it with like oh, like the Freedom for
Children you know act or something. This is like, yeah,
no owning the means of production. We're just going full
communist manifesto. It is what it is.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Well, it's like it's it's like step one in that
crazy evolution. Right is that the government? Well what it's
it's economic justice is step one. That's what they sell.
That's their bill of goods. That's what they want you
to believe. That there is a profound and utter economic
(11:54):
injustice in America now in certain industries. I think that's
it's apparent that there are some hurdles and criteria that
make it more difficult for entrance. But I firmly believe
that if you are a dedicated human being and you
go and you do your studies, you perform well. Especially
(12:15):
if you're underprivileged, minority, you're an immigrant, there are pathways
for you to achieve the highest possible trajectory to get
to an Ivy League school, to get out and to
integrate into a you know, top tier political movement or ideology.
That next thing, you know, you're the Democratic nominee for
(12:39):
the for the mayor of New York City. And I
also find it hilarious too, and it's kind of skipped
over this. You know, that dude attended Boden College up
in Maine, which is a seventy five thousand dollars a
year tuition, right, And I haven't been able to see
whether he's on student loans or how that work, but
obviously it's bizarre. And the same thing with aoc Here's
(13:00):
he went to you know, elite, elite schools, you know,
and now she's a person for the people, and it's
and it's and not that that's not acceptable politics, but
you know, these these ideas of like raising minimum wage
to thirty dollars per hour or uh, saying that they're
(13:22):
going to reduce police forcing and saying that they're going
to make gender affirming care for every single person who
wants in the city's going to pay for, I mean,
what you're having and what you're And it was funny, man,
because the kind of the responses that have taken place
on online. My favorite one there was an AI video
that had uh. They had Ron DeSantis, Governor DeSantis of Florida,
(13:47):
the great State of Florida, by the way, and they
had this jority where he was like, yes, we're gonna
build a moat of alligators on the state line. Uh.
And if you're from New York, when you're fleeing New
York after Democratic socialist Meyrit takes over, Right, who also
is a staunch supporter of the Free Palestine movement, has
(14:08):
said some pretty intense inflammatory remarks about that situation going
on over there. You know that there's gonna be like
a one percent tax automatically if you move in, if
you come down and anybody hears you make a Democratic
slash comment like in support that, you're automatically deported back
(14:29):
to New York. So it's just it's it's kind of
funny to me that this keeps happening.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
And now what is it from? I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
And so a lot of people are like, all right, well,
how can a city that has a really strong old
core democratic like like blue collar kind of old blue
dog Democrats, right, progressive Jews, labor unions right? And the
reality is is that immigration, in the evolution of that
(15:02):
immigration in particular in these boroughs, has generated to a
point where a lot of the old, the old constituents
are no longer in the majority there. And so you
have this voting block that comes from places that are
in quotations oppressed or seeking political asylum that are really
(15:25):
available to these type of socialist ideas, this type of
socialist ideology. And so what's going to happen when you
start And then you also have all these liberal, progressive
rich kids and other people that have attended these colleges
like Boden and like all these other places that they've
been indoctrinated into believing that America is fundamentally broken.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
The system's broken, everything's broken.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
And we need to tear it down and rebuilt it
on the in quotations demo, the foundation of democratic socialism,
which is Marxism all the way, all the way back,
no matter where you take it, it winds back at
Marx and angles. Right.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
I saw some tweet it was like, I wish my
parents were rich enough that I could believe in socialism.
I was like, yeah, that's about nails are right on
the head for you know, oh man, it's it's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
And I and I, but what you have is you
have a very real serious problem now. And because uh,
you know this fundamental uh of what this fundamental the
fundamentalism has permeated across all these different boroughs.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
You know, they're now getting ready to.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Have a openly uh, an open democratic socialist who has uh.
And in his recent comments, I don't know if you
heard this, and and but he he said in an
interview that if beab net and Yahoo were to step
foot in New York City for some United Nations, that
he would have the man arrested based on a lot
of the charges that have come out of you know,
(17:02):
international courts already out there. And and imagine if if
you're already pretty pretty scared about the dramatic increase in
anti Semitism spreading around New York in particular, Uh, you know,
the fact that he's going to openly saying that we're
(17:22):
going to do this. I mean, these are substantial, radical
policies for anybody who is running for any office, much
less office of a city that has eight million people
and is arguably one of the most significant cities on
the planet.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Well, that's what I'm concerned about. Listen.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
I'm not much of a city guy. I've lived in
big cities before, shout out Miami. But there's no question,
no matter what you said.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Three, five, I don't even yeah, let's go five.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
There's no question that New York City it's one of
the greatest cities in the entire world. And when I
see people like this come up and propose these policies,
for example, price controls at a grocery store, right, go
back through history, there's one way that goes. There's one
direction that goes, which is there's not enough food.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
And so I'm it's just shocking to me that a
city as great as New York, as great as it
should be and could be, is doing this to itself.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
It's like you're seeing your friend who's.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Going down a bad path, and no matter how much
you talk to him, he just keeps he just keeps
making bad decisions.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
You're like, what are you doing, dude? That's that's what
That's why I see it.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
I think everybody is sub susceptible to becoming an addict
for free shit. Right.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
The oldest playbook is the oldest playbook.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
One hundred percent convince everybody that you're you know, convinced
a large portion of of disenfranchised youth that they're they've
been oppressed and that the only way is to overthrow
the Now the term is oligarchy, billionaires or whatever. He
is proposing a one percent tax to pay for all
these on people that are multi millionaires and billionaires, you know,
(19:02):
that old thing that always seems to you know, get
out there. But you know, the the challenge is is
I think New York uh City, is you're on the
pretense of of something that could have really profound ramifications
to what degree we don't know. I still have you know,
like those people I mentioned, people I love dearly that
are in that city. You know, I'm gonna continue to
(19:26):
reach out and and see what goes on, and but uh,
I'm just hoping that uh New York City people will
awaken themselves to what the real threat is they're facing
and and get out there and vote for some common sense.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
But I'm not gonna definitely hold my breath on this one.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Yeah, maybe they'll become a thriving, beautiful, economically rich country
like Venezuela when they did that.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
You know, see, let's hope now, man, because I love
going to New York. Man, I don't want to happen. Yeah,
we'll see. All right, Okay, thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Sorry for the interruption, but we got to give our
advertisers their due time. And this is one of my
favorites to always provide you with some insight. If you're
a person like me, you like spicy food, right, all
my travel around the world has been incredible. I became
you know, I grew up with meat and potatoes in
my house, and once I started traveling overseas Thailand, Philippines,
(20:29):
the Middle East, I really gained a real desire to
have spicy food. Well, it's been sauces my whole life
up until recently where I was introduced to a good friend, now.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Alex and his company called Firecracker Farms.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Now, what they do is they combine, they infuse these
beautiful peppers that they raise personally with love and attention
on their own farm. They take that, break it down
and they infuse it into salt, and they have these
great salt shakers. Every morning I wake up with my eggs,
I put it on my steak, I put it on
my pork chops, you name it, and it gives that
little bit of kick in power that I just love
(21:06):
having on my food. Again, this is an incredible organizations.
It's family run business. Alex and his family do all
the work, send it all out and really is one
of the best products that I've ever had. I use
it daily and I highly recommend it. So just go

little bit of kick and spice. So please again go
visit Firecracker dot Farm.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Next story, and this is the one that I think
has radically grander ramifications on kind of just the nature
of where we're at politically in America, and it's kind
with all the other things that are going on Israel
Iran that I'll talk about here in a minute.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
You know, the New York thing.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
There's a big FED dust up that's brewing, and we're
hoping to We're going to do a big show on
the FED here coming up soon with a top economists.
I'm trying to get into his schedule and get him
on the show here soon. You know, there's this quiet
one from the one of the oversight committees in Congress
taking place, and they're doing this deep dive investigation into
(22:31):
Biden's auto pen scandal that's taking place now. If you're
not familiar, Steve Doocey kind of broke this a few
weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
He went back and analyzed.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Obviously, we know that Biden really came out in as
he was leaving his administration. There was massive controversy that one.
He pardoned Fauci dating all the way back to twenty fourteen,
which is kind of funny because that's exactly when the
(23:03):
COVID research in DARPA and that whole thing was beginning,
when gain a function research was off short Overseas Eco
Health Alliance. So Fauci was pardoned back to fourteen.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Then what was.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Another thing that you know, people, you know, the Democratic
pundits were you know, ferocious about their stance that there's
no way this would happen. But Biden basically pardoned his
entire family and all of the oversight that worked that
had been taking place with Comer and Jordan, which had
identified millions of dollars in payments from foreign entities made
(23:41):
to the Biden family, something like twenty seven million dollars
from China, Ukraine, the former mayor of Russia through I
think it was I don't know, I want to say
it was seventeen or twenty one different LLC's that had
been established with no concrete services provided whatsoever. I mean,
(24:04):
obviously he's selling his influence, right and pardon his son.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And then the big guy or the big Man or something,
the big guy, the big guy, yeah, the big guy. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Anyways, so this started for me really interesting because they
initiated these interviews and the first one that really stood
out last week was a guy named Anthony Bernal or Bernal, Yeah,
who was Jill Biden's chief of staff and one of
the you know, we had Jake Beck Tapper's book that
came out. Yeah, there to go refuses to testify tomorrow
(24:38):
on biden metal decline cover up investigation, and so they're
going to ask you a subpoena to force his testimony.
And you know, I think we already everybody in any
capacity already knew that Biden was his cognitive decline was
present from day one. If you didn't, you're lying to yourself.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Right.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
It's or Willian at its finest right there. You know,
whatever you're looking at isn't the truth. We'll tell you
what the truth is. And I think it's just obvious
that his it was it was this.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
So what is this crazy?
Speaker 3 (25:13):
What's crazy is that they tried to go after Trump
for the twenty fifth Amendment reasons right, that he was
not mentally fit. I'm like, man, that's the most pot
calling the kettle black thing I've ever heard in my life.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Alenski's rules, right, always accuse your enemy of what you're doing. Yeah,
and I think that's the standard playbook for these this crew. Well, anyway,
so he said I'm not testified, which was smart. Until
you give a subpoena, I'd never and then I'd plead
the fifth hands down every time, but the next one
(25:48):
and play this video this is This is a video
of near Tandeon.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Now I'll tell you who she is in a second.
But she was called in and gave some absolutely shocking
testimony to this oversight committee. Will you play that for me.
Here's a little clip. Here a brief comment.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Thank you. I just spoke with the House OVERSI Committee,
majority of Minority Council.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I answered every question.
Speaker 5 (26:14):
Was pleased to discuss my public service, and it was
a thorough process, and I'm glad I answered every question.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Was there an effort to disguise President Biden's condition? Absolutely no,
absolutely not absolutely no. Like she ditches off the side
now you know, you know she comes out and I
love that.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Oh yeah, I was. I was amenable as happy. Well,
you know what she did. She went under for a
five hour testimony and what ultimately came out of that.
And she was in charge of the Auto pen from
twenty twenty one October twenty twenty one to May twenty
twenty three and served as White House Secretary and senior advisor.
(27:01):
She confirmed she was responsible for managing the flow of
documents to and from the President during this period. So
they give you this little White House secretary, right, and
this is what's so brilliant about the Democratic Party and
how they cover up the true uh indication or the
true uh capabilities of their democratic operatives? Right now, and
(27:26):
just one sec'm make one more point in here, and
what was another thing that was fascinating was under this
testimony they kept pressing her and she got to a
point where it was, hey, uh, what what happened?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Once?
Speaker 6 (27:42):
Who?
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Who did you want? Who did you get the approval from?
Directly right? Who said yes, go ahead and apply the
autopen to this this sick this, pardon this whatever it was,
whatever document it needed to be signed. And she comes
out and she goes, I'm not sure. I'm not sure
who gave the final improvement. All I know as I
(28:04):
reached out to somebody in his inner circle, they gave
me the thing. I put the auto pen to work
and I sent it back and that's all I did.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
I don't know anything else, right, And.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
That seems like a legitimate response from a White House secretary, right?
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Aha? Though? Who is near attending? All right?
Speaker 1 (28:28):
This is the where things get a little tricky. So
who is she so near? Tannin was an a daughter
of Indian immigrants from Bedford, Massachusetts, Right, was raised by
a single mom, you know, very tough upbringing. But she
(28:51):
ended up graduating from Bedford High School in eighty eight
and she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from UCLA
in nineteen ninety two. And this is where she began
her political her political ambition, and she worked for the
Michael Ducaccus campaign in nineteen eighty eight. She received a
(29:11):
Juris doctorate a law degree from Yale Law School in
nineteen ninety six and served as a submissions editor for
the Yale Law and Policy Review. That's where things start
to really kickstart her political career.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Right, once you go.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
To Yale, Harvard, Cornell. Once you do all your pretty
much at Yale at Harvard, you go to law school there, right,
the doors automatically open.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
And the next thing she found herself.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
In the Clinton administration, where she had a rapid, rapid assent.
She was the Associate Director for Domestic Policy under Bill
Clinton nineteen ninety seven to ninety nine, where she was
a strong advocate for domestic policy. Work focused on issues
like tobacco control, education, children's health, insurance, women's health, and
(30:05):
family leave right, all things that were near and dear
to raising coming up as a being raised by a
single mom. Right. Then she became the senior policy advisor
to the First Lady, Hillary Clinton from ninety seven to
ninety nine. Why because they had already said, well, let's
have Clinton go out hold the public office and then
(30:28):
run for president as soon as she can, right, which
guess what she ended up doing. She served as the
deputy campaign manager and policy director for Hillary Clinton's successful
two thousand US Senate campaign. And just so you know,
she ran that Senate campaign against RF John F. Kennedy Junior,
(30:48):
who ended up mysteriously dying.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
In that plane.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Right.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
But I'm not going to go down all that.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
That's that I'm not going to be conspiracy conspiratorial to
my audience.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
We're just saying that if you were one, that's what
it would look like.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
If you were one that one.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
It's not to say I don't I don't read conspiracy
theories because they're so fascinating fun. But I certainly I'm
not gonna try and go down that rabbit hole with this,
all right. She was Legislative director of the election worked
at SENE Clinton's legislative director managing policy ptory priorities. Then
(31:30):
here's a kicker this is where I love it. Then
she goes to work for the Center for American Progress. Now,
if you're not familiar to the Center for American Progress
was a think tank started by John Podesta to be
a counter policy think tank for the Heritage Foundation and
was just started in two thousand and three, where she
(31:51):
served as a senior vice president of domestic policy. She
was the president and CEO from twenty eleven to twenty
twenty one. That's a long run of policy. Now, if
you're not familiar why these places are so impactful, I
always again I direct you to go listen to some
of the stuff that Mike Ben's has put on put
(32:12):
out there about how NGOs work in influencing policy mandate directions.
So what you'll have is you'll have, and this is
the right and the left, you'll have one of these
think tanks that'll be heavily influenced by people that were
on formal political campaigns or part of campaigns, working in
senior positions within the White House or government. They finish
(32:36):
their government work, they go work for the think tanks,
and then they're what they do is they write policy
papers that then they give and they use lobby firms
to go to people in Congress, in the House and
the Senate, and they push these policy paper or give
or pay or offer these policy papers to people who
then bring them forth to present as bills so that
(32:59):
they can and a great bill get it signed.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
They do great.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
They're pushing policy forward right which is basically the continuation
of what the previous administrations. And then it's how they
stay connected into the government right now. One of the
interesting things about the CAPS Advocacy arm they have a
pretty unique donor influence over the years Bain Capital, Blackstone,
(33:24):
and several other massive financial institutions. They've also hosted events
for net and Yahoo and others. She actually and when
she was took under the Obomba administration, she went to
work for them. She was the senior Advisor to Health
(33:45):
Reform at the Department of Health and Human Services from
twenty nine to eleven. And you know, she really has
always been floating in kind of the internal apparatus of
the highest echelon of the Democratic Party, which is the
Clintons in the Obamas. You know, she was again a
senior aide to Clinton's campaign in sixteen. You know, after
(34:10):
the loss, Clinton did not run for her office, and
she went back to cap for brought her policy mandates
and running that organization. Now in twenty twenty one, she
was nominated for the Office of Management and Budget twenty
twenty to twenty one. Now under her Senate confirmation hearings,
(34:31):
which were a blast, and I watched some of these.
She had put out obviously some pretty inflammatory tweets back
in the day, calling people out in pretty dramatic ways. Well,
all of these senators came back and said, is this
your tweet? Is this your tweet? How can you be biased?
Speaker 2 (34:46):
And all this? So she got shut down. So what'd
they do?
Speaker 1 (34:50):
What'd they do under the Biden administration of a cognitively
impaired president. We're going to make her a White House secretary. Yeah,
So you have one of the most significant political operatives
in the last thirty years, who's come up through the ranks,
who's worked with the most senior people, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton,
(35:15):
John Podesta, the Obamas, right, the Center for American Progress,
all of their affiliations, their connections, which was also the
other one I didn't talk about, is they received substantial
funding from George Soros in his organization. I still haven't
found any and if they've got any government funding yet.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
But I don't think we could do that. See if that,
see if.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
The if they've ever received any the Center for American Progress,
See if they ever received any government funding from USAID
or the State Department or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
If you could for me. All right, So here is
a person that.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
You know, has it's been an intense political operative who
now is a secretary in the White House, who's in
charge of the auto pen and comes out and says, yeah,
I definitely was in charge of it.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
I was doing it. Uh.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
You know there was one in particular where Biden was
on vacation down in the Islands and there was a
pardon administered and they're calling that out because she was
in charge of it.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Did he have authorization?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
And I think, you know, again, this goes back to
what this goes back to all of the stuff that
we've talked about in earlier shows, Right, Geordie is all right,
let's get to it, man, Let's let's let's put these
people under legal oath. Let's make them answer questions under
subpoena to the penalty of perjury, to the penalty of
(36:45):
the law. And if there's something there, man, Let's let's
get an investigation going now. I'm I'm hopeful that Pambondi
and Cash Betel are already doing an investigation into this scandal,
because if this is true, I want you to I
want you to realize.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
The impact of this.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
If this is true, we already know Biden was cognitively declined,
right Jake Tapper's book confirmed that. All these other people
have confirmed it. We already know that's true. We already
know that pretty much. There was Susan Rice, who was
a former Obama senior administration I mean inner circle.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
She was involved in it.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
You know, John Podessa was brought back in Clinton advisor,
so we know all of the people surrounding Biden. We
her political operatives from Clinton's and Obama's. And now this woman,
who is one of the senior members of that establishment,
was in charge of the auto pen right that warrants investigation,
(37:43):
and if that's true, that essentially means everything that we
saw come out of the Biden administration, fiscal policy, foreign
affairs pardons, all of these things about shutting down different
aspects of financial drilling, all these things, and then more importantly,
(38:10):
the un restrictive warfare political warfare that was waged against
Donald Trump starting in twenty sixteen, from the FBI, from
the CIA, from DOJ. Right, these people are all tied
to this, and so what you have to start to
(38:31):
do is to take a step back and allow yourself
to start connecting these pieces, right, because what's taking place,
and I'm my internal suspicion is that it's much grander
than any one particular party, But I think the Democratic
Party has had the greatest stranglehold on our political institutions
(38:54):
since really Clinton. Right, And what you have is you
have a conspiracy.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
That's so there it is.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
There's that word again, right, Maybe not a conspirat, maybe
a Rico case or something like that.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
What's the legal term conspiracy?
Speaker 1 (39:10):
Is good?
Speaker 2 (39:10):
That's fine. Hey, did you find that thing on?
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Did they get receive any federal funding?
Speaker 3 (39:16):
They have not received any direct significant government funding as
primary because primary revenue comes from charitable contributions, with over
ninety six percent from individuals and foundations, two percent from
labor unions corporations.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
But they've it does say.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
However, they've engaged with government related activities, such as receiving
small amounts of foreign government funding for specific events. Conferences supported,
so it's not directly but right next to.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Let me tell you how this works.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Okay, So let's say I'm I'm a foreign government all right,
whatever government X is, and I want to get my
voice heard to somebody on the inner circle. So you
have these nonprofits, these NGOs. They say, Hey, we're going
to have this function X at this you know, you know,
(40:08):
five star hotel in New York City. We're having this
beautiful panel of expert people on you know, all the
different things that we're talking about. We're going to have
the head of some giant asset management fund.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
We're going to have a head of a bank.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
We're going to have ahead of some policy or a
think tank. We're going to have former political people from
the House and the Senate, maybe even a former president
or two. Talk right, what's your donation at this for
this event? Oh, here's here's five hundred thousand, here's a
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Well, all right, then guess what.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
You come to their event and we're going to give
you four hours in meetings directly with these politicians or
people that have political influence. That's the way this whole
thing works. And it's on both sides. Everybody's equal. Everybody
does it. But that's the way it works. If you
want to get your voice heard, you got to pay
somebody to do it. And I don't care. And that's
(41:06):
that goes all the way down to municipalities and it sucks,
and all of that needs to be, you know, wide
open in terms of its transparency. But that's the way
the political system works and it ain't going to change
anytime soon. So just know that this is the process
of how it works. So you have this autopen thing
(41:26):
which could be on a scale unlike anything we've ever
seen before, but it's in part of a grander conspiracy
to really kind of uh stop, kind of a populist
nationalist movement in America, make America great again, right, the
MAGA movement which is now become essentially the rising political
(41:52):
movement of America American policy led by President Donald Trump.
So that's what this is. That's why it's real, that's
why it's critical to understand this. All Right, what's next, Jeordy?
What what are we doing now?
Speaker 2 (42:06):
Bud? I don't know, but I need an autopen want one?
What are you gonna sign what?
Speaker 1 (42:12):
Like? What do you whose signature are you gonna sign
What if you can auto autopen anybody's signature, what would
it be.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
Wouldn't you just find like a rich person's bank account
or something like that and say they wrote you a
check for a million dollars or something and just just
autopen it.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
Yeah, that's that's h Bernie made off, right, that's less Weckner,
Epstein and Les Wexner. Uh. I think the autopen happens
quite a bit. And it's called pyramid schemes, right, perm
that was a jump that was that was not funny.
But yes, auto pens are great, but power of attorney,
(42:49):
I think it's the same thing. What I don't want
is I don't want Jordy, you go for it, but
I don't want the president having an auto pen.
Speaker 2 (42:56):
I think that needs to be outlawed.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
Yeah, we lived apparently we live for in a lie
for four years. So that's not great to hear.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Yeah, that that's that's uh, that's disturbing.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
All right, we will get back on more on that.
All right.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
Once again, sorry for the interruption, but I just really
uh want to just tell you about we're really excited

trying to understand fear because the core of what frog lot,
the frog Logic concepts are and this is the motivational
(43:59):
teaching and training and coaching that I've been doing for
the last thirty years. The fundamental starting point is learning
to embrace your fear. There's no such thing as fearless.
You can't get rid of fear. You're wired for it.
You've been taught it your whole lives. So what you
have to be able to do is learn how to
embrace it. And what I've done is broken this down
into five missions or five training modalities, with four sub
(44:20):
steps under each one. It's a five month course that
you should do. It's journal based. Sign up for this
course and I promise you you will learn first to
understand your fear. Then you will learn to accept what
your fear is. Then you will learn to retrain your
brain to deal with fear. Then you will learn to
how to test your fear day in and day out,
(44:41):
and then finally, ultimately you will begin to live with
courage and be able to embrace that fear as a
motivational tool to help you accomplish all your purpose, all
your dreams in your life. Again, I've been working on
this for a long long time. We're happy to re
release it. We will now follow up that with more
curriculum in the future here soon called the Forging Self
(45:04):
Confidence Curriculum, Team Life Curriculum, and then finally Live with
Purpose curriculum, And those are the four main co constructs
of the core Frog Logic teaching curriculum that we've developed.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
This is the doozy portion of it.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
Obviously, I've been hit up constantly people wanting me to
really give some analysis and my thoughts on what's taking
place in Israel, and I ran, as I said before,
I did do a quick hit on Sean Hannity's radio show.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
This week, you could check that out.
Speaker 1 (45:46):
And I discussed just the prowess of the US military,
the capabilities of the strikes, and I'll talk about that
and here in a little bit, but you know, I
didn't really give it a chance to give my opinion,
which I well here second, but I just as a recap.
The so called twelve Day War began on June twelfth,
(46:09):
where the the I A e A came out, led
by US, UK, France. Germany passed a resolution that said
that Iran was non compliant with their evaluation. But they
did say the Director General, Raphael Grossi, states that there
was no proof of Iran pursuing a nuclear weapon, and
(46:34):
that also kind of co Telsey Gabbert had given a
presentation in front of Congress saying that there was. They
did they didn't have any conclusive proof that they were
close through a weapon a few months ago, which then
she's retracted and they said, yeah, they do believe that
they had more there on newer intelligence. Well late that evening,
(46:57):
Israel launched a massive surprise attack on Iran's nuclear facilities
and military leadership, and they called it Operation Rising Lion.
On June thirteenth, the air strikes continued by Israel, targeting
sites at in Tons, FDOH and Isfran as well as
(47:20):
military command centers. And they were trying to wipe out
the upper ashline of of the IRGC of nuclear scientists.
I mean they were trying to chop the head off
the snake for sure. That night, i Ran retaliated with
over one hundred drones and ballistic missiles targeting Iran, most
(47:41):
of which were intercepted by the Iron Dome, NET and
Yaho States. The strikes were planned since September, delayed from
April to allow US diplomatic efforts. All right, and Trump
had come out and said, hey, we're giving you in
sixty days to come to the table and negotiate. So
all this has taken place, well, it just kept escalating
(48:02):
from there right June fourteenth, Israel expands strikes to Iran's
energy sector. I Ran in authority reports two hundred and
twenty four deaths in Tehran. The Colemane of valve severe punishment.
June fifteenth, Israel conducts third day of air strikes. I
Ran Health minister reports four hundred and thirty civilian deaths
(48:24):
over three thousand injuries. That's when President finally started to say,
you know, hey, let's negotiate, let's get a deal, let's
end the conflict. June sixteenth, i Ran launches a barrage
of missiles, one striking apartment complex, panic grips Tehran as
Israel warren civilians to evacuate Tehran. This thing just kept
(48:47):
building and building, back and forth. June seventeenth through the eighteen,
more missiles fired from back and forth. Diplomatic talks in
Geneva failed to yield the breakthrough. June nineteenth, Iranian missile
tacks diminished, possibly due to degraded capabilities. I Ran blocks
(49:10):
Internet access for over twelve hours. June twentieth, Israel continues
strikes net. Yahoo claimed Iran's nuclear program military capabilities called
Operation Historic have been debilitated. And then here it is
June twenty second, the US joins the conflict using many
(49:32):
thirty thousand pounds bunker buster bombs and essentially has come
out and said that the US in this massive strike
that involved all different types of military assets, all different
ballistic cruise missiles, from the ocean, from subs, we had
(49:55):
the B two bomber strikes that we decimated the Iranian capability.
Speaker 2 (50:04):
Then after that.
Speaker 1 (50:06):
On the twenty third, I ran had a limited launch
strike against the usl you did air basing Katar, prompting
a real backlash because he had essentially said Trump had
(50:27):
come out and said, hey, he'd negotiated his ceasefire. They
did this prior to now it has come out that
they said that there was prior knowledge. They gave it
kind of a heads up to Qatar, which then told us,
and then later on Israel launched another attack right right
before the ceasefire, and that's where we got to the
(50:49):
place where I woke up and Trump is dropping f
bombs about these two nations.
Speaker 2 (50:55):
Don't know what the f they're doing. I think after that, the.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
Ceasefire has held, both coming out, you know, Israel and
the US with substantial claims for victory that they have
completely knocked back their capabilities for years, saying it will
take years to rebuild. So that's where we are to date.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (51:27):
I think what I really want to let everybody know
is is my thoughts, and my thoughts are this. I
think one, you know, there was a massive split that
took place on the right because of this. There was
a large group of people saying that this is the
dumbest thing that we could ever do is wage or
(51:48):
start or be involved in this in this you know,
very regional conflict between Israel and Iran, you know, and
saying this is not our war, we should not get involved.
We cannot get in another for hour war in this area.
And this is a lot based on the monumental failures
of regime change policy from Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Soudan.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
Yeah, man, you name it.
Speaker 1 (52:19):
All of these, if you look at them, have been
a tactical failure to the tune of essentially eight to
nine trillion dollars in debt. And the one that really
is hard for me is all of my friends who
died engaged in those wars overseas, plus all of my
friends who are feeling, including myself, the impact from those
(52:42):
actions in the long term effects of going to war
for that long. Most of the I think the rallying
cries were coming from the Gwatt veterans, in particular, a
lot of guys that I'm friends with and follow online
who had very valid points. Now, the other side of
this is the people that are are staunch supporters of
(53:06):
Israel as our one prominent significant ally in the region,
and they're saying, hey, you know this is an existential threat.
You have these Ayatolas since seventy nine have been chanting
death to America, Death to America. They've been actively engaged
in spons the largest this is the term everybody used,
(53:27):
the largest state sponsor of terrorism with Hamas, HESBLA, a
lot of these other groups in the area. I certainly
know that that friends of mine faced a lot of
technology v BID and ID technology taught around, you know,
to certain rebel groups in Iraq that were taught by
(53:48):
the Kods force and how to make these and so
there were Americans that have been you could say, the
Beirut attacks.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
So there is a long line of ration coming out
of Iran and.
Speaker 1 (54:01):
Its proxies, and these people were saying, listen, and you
know this is it. We have to get rid of
these people. These people on this side then were coming
back and said, well, this has been the stated goal
for Israel in particular NET and Yahoo since the nineties.
Speaker 2 (54:17):
And what he's always been saying.
Speaker 1 (54:20):
Is that they're right on the pack capacity of a
nuclear weapon, and they're five weeks away, ten weeks.
Speaker 2 (54:26):
Away, they're one year away, and we got to get
rid of them.
Speaker 1 (54:29):
You know, So these people are in this massive conflict,
and what I've really found striking was that it I
think it has caused a real rift.
Speaker 2 (54:39):
In the MAGA movement.
Speaker 1 (54:40):
I mean, there is now a definitive crack in some
of the most predominant pundits that were formerly joined in
the support of President Trump and what he's doing now.
I want to praise the military, these people that conducted
this operation, which, by the way, it just came out
in a press release a press conference earlier with Pete
(55:01):
Hegseth and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Dan Kine,
that this operation had been in planning for fifteen years
and they actually developed unique technology to be able to
penetrate the depth of what needed to penetrate in order
to really have an impact on you know, because you know,
(55:22):
it was built underneath this mountain, so you had to
really get down into and they developed technology for this.
Speaker 2 (55:28):
You know.
Speaker 1 (55:28):
One of the quotes is that these people have lived
this target for fifteen years. And then there was the
other really cool thing and I'm really beginning to fall
in love with this fall in love that's extreme, but
you know, it's just nice to see strong leaders that
are supportive of the military and what we're here to
do as war fighters. And that's Dan Keane and so
(55:48):
he praised, you know, the young guys that were on
that base that I ran was sent missiles to and
their reaction. So JORDI, can you play that clip, because
I just thought this was a great representation support for our.
Speaker 2 (56:01):
Young men and women that are out there on the
front lines.
Speaker 6 (56:05):
Folks had moved off the base to extend the security
perimeter out away from what we assessed might be a
target zone. Except for a very few Army soldiers at
alu Ded at that point, only two Patriot batteries remained
on base, roughly forty four American soldiers responsible for defending
(56:29):
the entire base to include Sencom's forward headquarters in the
Middle East, an entire air base, and all the US
forces there. The oldest soldier was a twenty eight year
old captain. The youngest was a twenty one year old
private who'd been in the military for less than two years.
(56:50):
So let's put ourselves out there for a second. Imagine
you're that young first lieutenant. You're twenty five or twenty
six years old, and you've been assigned as the tactical
director inside the command and control element. You at that
age are the sole person responsible to defend this base.
Speaker 2 (57:11):
Listening next to.
Speaker 6 (57:12):
You as your early warning operator whose job is to
notify you of imminent attack. There's five people inside a
vehicle and five people outside of a vehicle around these
a total of as.
Speaker 2 (57:24):
I said, forty four.
Speaker 6 (57:26):
By the way, you've sat in the Middle East for years,
deployed over and over again, extended multiple times, always being prepared,
but unsure of when that particular day will come that
you must execute your mission and not fail at doing it.
Speaker 2 (57:45):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (57:46):
I just what I love to see is I love
to see the leadership praising the young men and women
that are doing the job, that are have their lives
on the line, that don't have any control of the
policy what's going on, but they're there every day, day
in and day out, in those shitholes around the around
the world, and they're at their best. And I just
just kudos to all you that are serving out there.
Speaker 5 (58:07):
Man.
Speaker 1 (58:08):
I love you, We all believe in you, we support you,
and we just thank you for your dedication. And you know,
those the pilots that flew for thirty seven hours, the
people that did flew the fueling planes, the people that
were on launching and loading the cruise missiles into their
launch mechanisms. You know, I mean, these people are dedicated,
(58:30):
and they really are, and I just want to commend
them and really, you know, say thank you for what
you did.
Speaker 2 (58:39):
You know.
Speaker 1 (58:39):
My opinion on this is I think Trump's actions. Although
I am a staunchly opposed to any new ground fighting
or any engagement in another war in the Middle East,
I do not want to see that. I don't think
you can have a regime change in Iran. This is
(59:00):
an old culture. They are dedicated to this way of life.
If that's gonna happen. If you think you're going to
go in and just change this country of ninety million
plus people, you're out of your mind.
Speaker 2 (59:11):
It's not gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (59:12):
I don't believe it would benefit the United States in
any way, shape or form that we it's going to
benefit us. However, I do think this strike was necessary
for Trump's ability on the global stage right as a
man that ran conclusively on the position that I am
(59:39):
going to end the wars in Ukraine and Russia. I'm
going to end the war in Israel in Gaza, you know,
in him not being able to have any meaningful movement
in all of that. Right, we saw talks breakdown in
Ukraine Russia a few months ago with their big surprise
drone attack hitting military basis. I think this puts him
(01:00:00):
back in a very positive position of of strategic strength
in in in the prowess of America's might, right that
we can conduct one of these UH incredible, tactically superior
strikes that have massive destabilizing and debilitating effects on the
(01:00:21):
military capacity of a major country and a major player
in the region. And so I think it was a
benefit long term. UH for sure, we definitely don't need
to have any more people that are are are staunchly
opposed to America having nuclear weapons. What I would like
(01:00:45):
to see is, I would I would like to see
UH is Israel join the I A E A.
Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
I would like them to contribute.
Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
To UH some type of acknowledgment of their nuclear program.
I think that's fair. I think it puts everybody equally
on the table. I think it's it's it's a legitimate
argument to make, but also great. You know, they have
every right to to act as they they they need
to to defend their sovereignty, to defend whatever they think.
(01:01:16):
But I do know that there are some some challenges
that they're facing. Obviously, Trump released a post on True
Social acknowledging that net and Yahoo has been called in
to the by the Supreme Court to answer questions on
this massive corruption probe that has been going on in
(01:01:38):
his career for many, many, many years. Trump came out
to defend him and said, as a person himself, who
was you know attacked politically for years and years and years,
and a lot of these attacks were fabricated.
Speaker 2 (01:01:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:01:53):
I don't know very much about the I know there's
a documentary out there about this somewhere. I need to
do more research on what it is. But you know,
prior to October seventh, there was a large call for
net Yahoo to be removed from power. The President has
come in and to defend him and to say, hey,
this should stop this investigation. Net Yahoo is your greatest
(01:02:17):
wartime leader you've had. So there is still a strong
support between the United States and Israel in their current situation.
Speaker 2 (01:02:26):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:02:26):
One was interesting is that right after this massive operation
and hopefully to cease fire, sticks I'm really praying for that.
We don't need any more bloodshed between those two nations.
Trump went to a major NATO summit over in Europe
and was able to have a very successful trip. Right.
(01:02:47):
He was able to get commitment from the NATO countries
in Europe of a five percent GDB increase towards military spending,
which was huge. He did get I don't know what specific.
I don't think a lot of this had come out
or I haven't seen it that Zelensky came out and
said he he's more amenable to peace negotiations now. I
don't know what you're gonna do with Yeah, thanks for
(01:03:10):
posting that.
Speaker 2 (01:03:11):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
I've had a long and he says this for listeners
I had. This is from Zelensky. I had a long
and substantiative meeting with President Trump. We covered all the
truly important issues. I thank mister President. I think the
United States. We discussed how to achieve a cease fire
and a real peace. We spoke about how to protect
our people. We appreciate the attention and the readiness to
help bring peace closer.
Speaker 2 (01:03:33):
Details will fall. Man. That's a much different one, Jordy,
than this meeting in the in the White House last time,
I mean, I think.
Speaker 1 (01:03:40):
And what was awesome is the little guy actually put
on a suit for this meeting, which was cool. I
was glad to see he's he's tightening the ship, knowing
that now old Daddy is dropping bombs and his use
as making his authority here. And that's the last video
I want to show in all this. Mark Route, who
was the former head of the European Union who became
(01:04:03):
the head of NATO, was in an interview where basically
made the comment that Trump Trump was talking about, you know,
Israel and Iran as two you know, school bullies on
the playground that just kept hitting each other. And then
Mark Root suggested that, yeah, Daddy had to come in
and solve the problem.
Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
Can you play that clip for me, George.
Speaker 7 (01:04:26):
It's from Skynees, Mark Ritter, the NATO chief who is
your friend. He called you daddy earlier. Do you regard
your NATO allies as kind of children?
Speaker 2 (01:04:40):
No, he likes me. I think he likes me. If
he doesn't, I'll let you know. I'll come back and
I'll hit him hard. Okay, he did, he did it.
Very affectionate. Daddy. Here, my daddy.
Speaker 1 (01:04:54):
Dude, the one thing I love most is Trump as
the president that just keeps keeps giving us the best
memes on the planet. In fact, the White House actually
made a post of him returning and they they actually
use the term Daddy's home.
Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Do you have that, georgy? Oh, we have it. I
just want to get some attention. I want to be
out up in Yeah, you see, all right, all right,
(01:05:33):
that's good. That's good, dude.
Speaker 1 (01:05:36):
I'm telling you, if you're watching all of this, I
hope you're gaining some entertainment. And I know all this
is incredibly serious. It's putting a lot of pressure. That
talks about World War three, that talks about the destabilization
of the nation, what we're facing all that, But man,
who's ever run in that White House? Social media is
(01:05:56):
a real hero for me. I mean, you're they're trying
to bring levity to all the since the New Era.
It's how things are done. Trump is an endless meme
provider and giver, right, shorty. I mean, it's just endless,
endless gold.
Speaker 3 (01:06:09):
I'm going to I'm going to miss him because man
X has never been more fun than when Trump's president.
Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
Yeah, right for sure.
Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Now again, I just want to, you know, talk about
there's still a lot of unknowns with all of these things.
We promise to keep you assessed. We'll come back or
try and keep doing these weekend reviews. We hope we're
offering a great consolidation of information, and again that's our real,
real mandate to try and bring as much together for
(01:06:40):
you to help you kind of understand the landscape of
all this and then to give a limited opinion about
what I feel. And so what I think is America
is in a great spot. I think we potentially helped
avoid a broader scale outbreak that's long term yet to
(01:07:00):
be seen. There's always going to be fighting in the region.
I just want you to understand that this is ideological
in nature. These people have been feuding with each other
in the modern era really since you know, Israel began
its campaigned to establish itself as its own state. I
don't see any end of this feud in the future.
(01:07:22):
Hopefully what we can do is with this new establishment
of Trump's prowess in the region, maybe we can orchestrate
some type of solution that's indicative of something prior to
the nineteen sixty seven war, and maybe a two state solution.
Speaker 2 (01:07:38):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 1 (01:07:39):
I mean, obviously the Abrahamic Accords were an interesting start.
It does seem that there are more Middle Eastern countries
that are a lot more prone to these discussions. But
you also have part of the Crescent Moon over there
in terms of Turkey and Pakistan and Iran that all
seemed to be in the same camp in terms of
(01:08:03):
their stance on being anti Israel. So what we really
need is time, and time will play out, and I
hope that we see a lot better foreign policy, a
lot more diplomacy, and a lot more strength through power
(01:08:24):
that we witnessed with Trump in this particular operation. So
I hope you enjoyed. Thank you again for tuning in listen.
The biggest thing that really helps us the most is you.
Speaker 2 (01:08:36):
Again.

days or hours.
Speaker 3 (01:10:09):
That's right, we'll see due tomorrow, so we'll see what
the baby's timeline is, because that's apparently my timeline.
Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
It's God's timeline. Brother, all right, thank you all very much,
God speed,
