joining me today is the Patriot from the battle Boorn State,
the battleground state, the Silver State of Nevada, and that
is Sharon Angle and Sharon, welcome back, Welcome back to
Conservative Commandos.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Thanks Rick. You know, it's always a great news day
when you've got good news, not bad news, And I
guess I wanted to start out with the good news
that President Trump has made a sweeping proclamation of granting
full pardon still seventy seven at least seventy seven individuals.
(01:23):
But you know the best part of it all is
that my good friend John Eastman must pardon kurse.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
You're talking about individuals who were supporting him and challenging
the twenty twenty election m you.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Know, well and looking into what happened there. They were
just saying something crazy went on, and we all said it.
We said, this doesn't.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Look to continue to say it. You know, Sharon, would
you have Joe Biden getting fifteen million votes more than
Kamala Harris did? Something was fishy. And it's not like
Donald Trump got appreciably more votes than he did in
(02:12):
twenty twenty. There are about fifteen I said this from
the very get go. I said this in November of
twenty twenty, when the vote tally talis come in. What
happened to those fifteen million votes? Those fifteen million votes
that miraculously appeared for Joel of Biden, by the way,
(02:33):
and you remember he didn't campaign, He didn't campaign. He
was in his basement for the entire campaign season. And
when he did come out to campaign, maybe he had
ten people that is wherever he spoke. You know. It's
and when you look at the crowds that followed Trump around,
(02:54):
there was just no comparison. There was just no comparison.
And yet twenty twenty four there are fifteen million less votes.
And I said, that is the measure of voter fraud.
That is the measure of what in twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Well, you're right, And the interesting part of all of
that is that we are called the election deniers. If
we stand up and say, wait, something is wrong here,
then they say, oh, they're election deniers. You know, that's
a clear case of projection. That's a psychological term of
(03:35):
people that point the finger forward, but three are pointing back.
Those people that say you're this, it's actually them who
are that, and they accuse you of what they're doing.
And that is exactly what is going on here. They're
the they're actually the ones that are denying that anything
(03:55):
is going on in elections. We all know there is.
You know, here in Nevada, we had a proposition on
the ballot to put voter identification voter Ida government picture
ID required it voting polls in our constitution has to
(04:15):
pass twice. But I'll tell you the first time it
was overwhelming. Was more than seventy percent of the people
in the state. Voters in the state of Nevada said
we want voter ID. It goes clear across all party lines,
that goes deep into the Republican Party of course, but
it also grabbed up about thirty percent of Democrats voted
(04:39):
for a voter idea as well, and then of course
independence were around and the fifty fifty eight percent of
their votes went that way. But what it says is
no one is satisfied with what's going on in elections today.
They think something's funny.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
So much, I think company. I think it also shows
that people weren't fair and honest elections. They do that
they want, that's what they expected.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Yeah, that's exactly right. And so that was the reason
that Rudy Giuliani for one, Sydney Powell for another, and
John Eastman all came in to say, you know, there's
something happened here. And because they said it, because they
(05:26):
opened their mouths, we all got called election deniers, and
they got attacked. Their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred
honors were attacked by that side. And so it's a
good day in America when those people are pardoned because
(05:48):
they didn't do anything wrong. They just raised a huge
red flag saying, wait a second, there's something going on
in our elections and we need to investigate and make
sure that it doesn't happen again. And for that they were.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Plagued.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I believe that Rudy Giuliani and John Eastman for sure,
are still embroiled in this. They want to take John
Eastman's law license.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
What a travels well, they already took Rudy Giuliani's law license.
Rudy Giuliani cannot do practice law. His law license has
been revoked I think in New York and Florida where
he was. I know one was New York. I believe
the other was Florida where he was licensed to practice law.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Well, John Eastman assaulted by California, so you can tell
when this law license comes up. I don't know where
else he was able to practice law, but I know
that that seems to still be something that he's he's
fighting with, is that attraction of his law license. And
(07:02):
that's their livelihood. That is absolutely they support their family.
And I think that's the cruel part of this, is
that it's one thing to call people names, and it's
another thing to attack their record. When you attack the
way that they support their family, that's just totally below the.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Belt, Sharon.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Everybody knows this was a ploy to stop Donald Trump.
They knew Donald Trump, that Donald Trump was allowed to
run in a fair election that Donald Trump would win.
And just like they got rid of the mafia, the
way you get rid of the mafia is you cut
out the cut out the legs, you cut out the underlings.
(07:49):
You go after everyone who's around the boss, the don
and I don't mean Donald Trump, but in this case,
in this case it was Donald Trump. Everybody who supported
Donald Trump was going to be attacked. And that's how
they expected to stop Donald Trump from winning an election.
(08:10):
Oh yeah, let's indict them, you know, let's bring him
up on phony charges. Let's convict him on thirty four
of the most bogus charges ever ever in the history
of law in this country. It was all to stop
Donald Trump. That's what it was all about. Guess what, Sharon,
(08:31):
Guess who's in a White house today.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Donald Trump didn't work. So but in the meantime, a
lot of people's lives were destroyed, that's right.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
And among those seventy seven kind of probably a out
liar and that nobody really knows a lot expression of that,
and that was our Republican chairman. Michael McDonald was also pardoned.
Now he was charged with trying to be a fake elector,
(09:09):
and I mean, it's just a swirling mess. I'm not
sure anybody understands exactly what the charge was, but Donald
Trump put it into that said that's going away. Kelly
Ward also the GOP chairman of Arizona. She was pardoned too,
And interestingly, these are states where those elections were contested
(09:33):
in the twenty twenty election. We're finally getting to the
bottom of it, but it takes a long time. The
wheels of justice are slow to move, so we're almost
six years out before we get justice. And then it
doesn't come from the courts. It comes from the president,
(09:55):
which that in itself should make us pretty angry that
our courts can't even support people who are innocent, right,
they can't even uphold the rule of law. It takes
the president to step in and say We're not going
to let this go on any longer. We've been six
(10:15):
years in this. There is no there there. It's not
a The crimes these people have been accused of are
not crimes. It's just like the January sixth rhymes that
people have been now pardoned for. But what happened in
the meantime to these people, their lives were just destroyed,
(10:42):
so because of a political targeting weaponization.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
You know, well, you know it also goes back to
the nineteen eighties. Raymond Donovan, he was a businessman, executive,
and a politician. Served as US Secretary of Labor under
Ronald Reagan. He resigned after being the first serving member
(11:07):
of the cabin in the United States to be indicted
but was acquitted. And that came in nineteen eighty seven.
And I'll never forget what he said when he walked
out of the courtroom. What office do I go to
to get my reputation back?
Speaker 2 (11:23):
That's right?
Speaker 1 (11:24):
This was after being acquitted in a court of law.
And I'll never ever ever forget that, what office do
I go to to get my reputation back?
Speaker 2 (11:35):
And that you know, they got the pardon, And this
is a valid point. Where do they go from?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
He here?
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Where do they go?
Speaker 1 (11:43):
But I mean that's what I mean. Yeah, well, list
they're not going to go to jail, that's right in
this part.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
And this stops, doesn't it doesn't it stop the litigation
against them, isn't that part of it too? You can't
continue to beat this drum and take them into courts.
So it stops the bleeding. But now they have to
what kind of restoration or restitution will they get for
(12:14):
the dollars and the time and then stress that it
put upon them to fight these charges for six years.
Where's the Where's the restitution?
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Mm hmm yep, where is the restitution? Hey, Sharon, let's
get a break in. Why because we do have to
We have to sell some things. And this is the

And welcome back. Welcome back to the Conservative Commandos for
Sharon Angle and I'm Rick Trader coming to you from
the Mike Pillar studios, the My Store studios of the
a u N Television Network. What else is on your
radar screen? Share it?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Well, I think more good news. They're calling it an
early Christmas gift for every one of the US from
the Trumpet administration, from Donald Trump tariff's strategy. The President
has pledged a two thousand dollars check for Americans in
the form of a dividend. So you know, that's always
(15:11):
nice to get a check in the mail instead of
having to put the check in the mail to the government.
Will probably just about cover some of our income tax.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
But this.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Backlash that he's been getting over the tariffs is now
raking in billions of dollars of revenue to the United States,
and he's saying, you know, there's a dividend here. At
least two thousand dollars of person will be paid to everyone. Now,
(15:47):
you know, it sounds great and you go, oh, thanks
for that, But then I think about the thirty seven
trillion dollar debt.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
I do too. Well, you know, Sharon, I have mixed
feelings about this because it's a Democrats all the time
are bribing people with tax breaks and its sentives and
entitlements and whatnot. So all right, now Donald Trump is
(16:20):
getting and playing the same game. I think everybody would
like to get a two thousand dollars jack. I mean,
my gosh, that makes a Christmas. That makes Christmas for
most American families. When you're saying two thousand per person?
Is that for every individual, every individual citizen in the country.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
What kind of sounds like it doesn't it? It's just
per thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Per or that or is that per taxpayer?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
I think it's for American citizens. It's pretty specific. No
American citizens. But I just want to put in another
thing here. By doing this, we have something tangible then
to say to people when they say, oh, I hate
President Trump, and you can say, with all honesty, is
(17:12):
your life better this Christmas than it was last Christmas?
Are you forgetting that two thousand dollars check? Doesn't that
make your life better?
Speaker 1 (17:22):
And they'll say they're entitled to it, or they'll come
up with some goofy reason. You know, Sharon, never put
never put past the ignorance of a liberal. I mean, seriously,
these people, And I was thinking about this the other day.
(17:42):
Trump's arrangement syndrome, Sharon, is some mental disorder. It really
is a mental disorder, all right, And compare the Obama
derangement syndrome. Remember that, No, you don't remember that because
it never happened. You know, there were people like you
and I who did not like Barack Obama, did not
like the moods that he made. But did we ever
(18:04):
wish the man dead? You know? Did?
Speaker 5 (18:09):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:10):
No? I mean, so I'm you know, I say liberal
liberalism is a mental disease. Well now I'm saying that
Trump derangement syndrome is a liberal is a mental disease. Right,
I meant to say liberalism is a mental disease. So
is Trump derangements syndrome. I want to make sure I
(18:30):
got that right. You got it right.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
That the article that I'm reading says that it'll be
two thousand dollars a person, so I put the American
in there. I want it to be citizens only. And
then it says not including high income people, so anybody,
And I don't know what that means either. Who are
high income people? So they're they're really determined narrowly targeting
(18:55):
this to.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
And I hope it's just citizens. I hope these illegals.
These people are in this country illegally, or even if
they are immigrants but here legally but not citizens. I
don't think they should be entitled to it. Be careful,
You're right, careful. Who gets this money?
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Well, let me just bread the quote because it's kind
of an interesting quote. Four one case, our highest ever.
We are taking in trillions of dollars and will soon
begin paying our down our enormous stead of thirty seven trillion,
record investment in the USA, Plants and factories going up
(19:43):
all over the place. This is the Trump this is
Trump talking. And a dividend of at least two thousand
a person, not including high income people, will be paid
to everyone. So it's it's this idea that we're going
(20:03):
to benefit, But we're benefiting in other ways as well.
He starts out his statement with people that are against
tariffs are fools. We are now the richest, most respected
country in the world without almost no inflation and a
record stock market. So he's he's naming off the ways
(20:26):
that this tariff situation has increased our economy and that
is a benefit to all of us. But then he said,
but wait, there's more. A dividend of two thousand dollars
a person. So I'm hoping that and I guess I
put that out there that it will be citizens only
(20:48):
because he's rounding up the non citizens. So I hope
that's exactly how it looks.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Sharon didn't, however, and here's here's the chicken the armor. However,
help me out here. Didn't the Supreme Court rule recently
that he did not have the power to tariff to
oppose trifts because see the Supreme Court is saying tariffs
(21:16):
or attacks, and only Congress has the ability the authority
to raise or lower tax So I wonder how that's
going to affect his tariff policy.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I don't know, but you're right. The judges are going
to make that decision. And we all always should be
a bit in fear when the judges get hold of anything,
because it's such a unpredictable thing. While they will rule,
(21:51):
and they often rule not in our favor, we often
get injured by the court. So this could be one
of those times where they injurious or where they actually
do something kind to the American people. But to be
at the mercy of the courts is not a great
place to be, as we learn by all of these pardons.
(22:16):
That's why we've had to have all these partons is
because the courts are not merciful, because the courts have
been weaponized, and we feel that weaponization.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Well, we do feel that weaponization. And President Trump is
I think he's been using these TIFFs brilliantly to bring
people to the table to negotiate, and that's helped America.
That's helped the American people, that's helping to bring jobs
and industry back to America. We've seed this. What is
(22:52):
he I'm wondering what tactics he can use if indeed
he can no longer use the tariffs and having other
presidents use terrorists too, Yes, I believe that. And they
haven't go and they haven't go into Congress. I don't know,
you know, the fillerbuster. If Congress we come back in
(23:16):
session and say we're going to get the president the
authority to issue terrorists, right, I wonder if that's possible
without having the you know, the Democrats, Sharon, just like
we're talking in twenty twenty, the Democrats are going to
make every move, every move to stop Donald Trump and
(23:41):
why they want their power back and they don't care
about the country. They really don't care about the country,
the well being of the country. The only thing that
they want is they want the power back. And we're
seeing that by the government shutdown. Sharon, that the Democrats
don't care about anything except for stopping Donald Trump. I
(24:04):
think they are the American people, that's right.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I think that the Treasury Secretary Secretary Scotvissent made a
really good observation and he I'll quote him, tariffs are
national security. President Trump used them to stop China's rare
earth threats, five fentanyl, and bring trillions in new investment
(24:30):
to America. So that's the way the Treasury Secretary and economists,
someone who knows money and understands how these things work,
and he's saying, this is part of our national security.
These tariffs are keeping us safe, and they you know,
we can see how they are going to be used
(24:53):
to strengthen our own domestic ecopany just by bringing the
job home. That's kind of a an interesting benefit. But
we are seeing the benefits already in and Scott Basanti
is saying it's a matter of national security, which is
(25:15):
part of the idea of make America great again. Don't
be sending our good and our best to overseas. Let's
keep it here at home.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
All right and sharing. It is time for another break,
and we'll be back after we sell a few things.
And this is the considerate to command this radio show.
We share an Angle and Rick Trader God nowhere. We'll
be back right after this break.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
And welcome back. Welcome back to the Conservative Commandos with
Sharon Angle and Rick Trader, coming to you from the
Mypila Studios and My Steward Studios of the a u
n TV network. You know, Sharon in the previous segments,
we're talking about Trumps arrangement syndrome being a mental disorder,
liberalism being a mental disorder. I think homosexuality is also
(27:44):
a mental disorder. At least that's what doctors used to
call it before, but that's before political correctness got in
the way.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
That's true, but you know, go correctness is starting to
meet a headwind, which is very encouraging, I think to
most of us. Glad this is a gay lesbian organization
warns that forty one percent of LGBTQ characters won't return
(28:16):
to TV next session good next season because cancelations are mounting.
So they're finally starting to hear our voice. And I
think that that comes in the form of we don't
go to those movies anymore. We turn them off on television.
If they've got if they've got gay characters, or they're
(28:38):
starting to normalize the gay lifestyle, I just flip the channel.
We've gone to a lot of live streaming. People don't
even take cable anymore because they don't want to try
to get around all this gay lesbian stuff LGBTQ things
(29:02):
that are being shown on television. You can't trust it.
You can't have your children watching it for sure. And
you get into a series and everything's going along great.
It looks like a good, good thing to watch in there,
you got it, and I know we've just grown when
it runs up against us. When we were watching something
(29:25):
that we really think this is a good, serious series,
and then they'll have this gay character come on, and
you go and we change the channel, we click it off,
we stop watching it. And I'm glad to hear that
I'm not the only one that's offended by that. And well,
(29:46):
it truly is an offense to my to my values.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
I don't know if I'm offended more than a pault
you know, I'm a Paul Hell. It's celebrated. I mean,
are we going to make are we going to celebrate
somebody who has a mental disorder. You don't want to
mock them, but are you going to celebrate them? These
people need is not notoriety. These people need help. These
(30:18):
people need real help from people who are willing to
call a spade of space, Sharon, I mean willing to
call you know, this political correctness that's going to absolutely
too far in my opinion. You know, for one hundred
and fifty years, two hundred years, over two hundred years,
(30:41):
I was trying to do the math in my head,
the indigenous people of North America were called Indians. We're
called Indians now. These liberal do gooders try to shame
anybody who calls an Indian an Indian. I'm sorry. That's
what they've been called for two hundred, three hundred years.
(31:06):
But because you think they're offended by it, you wanted
to change. And I was watching I was watching a
show today about Custer, about Custer's Last stand, and they
referred to the Indians as indigenous original Americans. All right,
(31:28):
I mean, call them, call them what they've been called.
It is derogatory. Sharon, I was on the Navajo reservation
some time some time ago, a number of years ago,
when all this was starting to boil over about you
can't call an Indian an Indian, and I says, are
(31:49):
you offended? I asked the people that live there who
were Indians, are you offended by They go, no, I said,
we call ourselves Indians, all right. It's the liberals that
have a problem of it, all right, it's the liberals
that have problems with the Washington Redskins team called the Redskins,
(32:12):
or the Cleveland Indians team called the Indians, or the
Stanford football team called the Indians. I mean, it's the
liberals that have a problem with it. You know what, Sharon,
I wish a team would call themselves the Rictrators as
long as they're winning, I'd be very happy and satisfied
(32:33):
with that they want to use my name, great, because
you know that would show that a team respected me
enough that they wouldn't want to use my name. So
you've got teams like the Braves. Is that so ignorant
(32:53):
by calling a baseball team the Braves? I think that
it still's bravery. You know, we call these people brave.
It's because they were brave people. What's wrong with that?
The liberals have a problem with it, and only the liberals,
the mentally ill liberals, they're the only ones that have
(33:14):
a problem with.
Speaker 6 (33:17):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
You know, I want to kind of get back to
the c lgbt Q agenda and.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
How it from it.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
But no, no, I just want to I just want
to say it's offensive because it glorifies something that is
completely against my values, and it's a slap in the
face to anyone that hass those values and says I,
you know, I just don't want to be exposed to it.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
It's in the Bible. It's called sin. We don't glorify,
we don't grand We help sinners. That was why Jesus
came as to save sinners, not to say oh, what
you're doing is a okay with me. It's not. It's
not okay. And he called a spade is made. He
(34:12):
was the one that went and tipped over all the
money changers and said, you can't be doing that. Sin
is sin, and he came to save sinners. So when
we let sin parade itself across our television screens, we
become culpable in it. We become a part of the
(34:34):
promotion of it. So that's that's my offense. But it's
interesting how the this is a very slow shift that's
been taking place. It's been gradual, but they're now starting
to see how it's been affecting their bottom line, their
(34:58):
box office. Who goes to see what and they're not
going to see these things at the box office? Their
new series that they have. You know, they're so excited
with these series on streaming TV. They've been canceling them.
And what have they been canceling. They've been canceling those
(35:22):
shows that do not do traditional storytelling, which is they choose.
They're choosing now to introduce shows that are entertaining, not propaganda,
not education, propaganda. And that is forty one percent down
(35:45):
from last season of the four hundred and eighty nine gay,
lesbian LGBTQ characters that have been on television, only one
hundred ninety two are confirmed to return.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
That's a give those numbers again.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
Four eighty nine.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Nine gay characters.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Yep, wow, and only one hundred and ninety two are
coming ball.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
That's one hundred and ninety two too many.
Speaker 7 (36:18):
In my opinion, it's it's still too many, but it's
such a drastic drop, and that is just a you know,
I'm saying kudos to discerning audiences.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Good for you, thank you for voting with your pocket book,
for telling them absolutely not going to tolerate this anymore.
I'm just not going to watch it. And that's what
is so good about the free market. Right, we can
determine with our dollars, we what we want to watch,
(36:56):
what we want to attend. How about where we want
to go. You know, you were talking about the Redskins
and the braves and these politically correct things that are
going on in sports. I think there's going to be
(37:16):
one of those ships coming. I think people are tired
of it. Like you said, we just don't want to see,
you know, we don't want to know that stuff is right,
in our face. We know what's in the culture, but
I don't have to go someplace and have it shove
down my throat. And that's what's so beautiful about the
(37:38):
free market. We're just we are voting with our dollars
and new our dollars someplace else.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
Sharon, I'm as we're talking. I looked up. Just put
it out there, Hollywood crying over low box offices. The
Hollywood industry is currently facing a significant crisis over box
office performance. October twenty twenty five, who has reported as
the worst month for theatrical releases in the twenty first century. Wow.
(38:13):
And I think it's a lot what you're talking about.
I think it's how a lot of it has to
do with Hollywood goings so woke. I think it has
a lot to do with Hollywood and their Trump derangement syndrome. Good.
As you say, we speak with our feet, we speak
with our economic power.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
Not with censorship. But you know what, with mandates, we
just simply move away from it.
Speaker 1 (38:42):
But even what's on television, Sharon, And you know me,
I'm a reality TV junkie. I love reality TV, and
there's so many reality TV shows that I don't watch
it anymore. Why because they've done they They've done the
(39:04):
woke thing. They've done the woke thing with gays, They've
done the woke thing with mixed couples, and hey, listen,
you want to date somebody from another race, knock yourself out,
all right, but don't push in my face. Don't tell
me this is something that I need to do, you know,
don't push the gayness in my face. Enough of the
(39:25):
woke stuff. Wife and I were watching a Tom Hanks
movie the other night and were both say it was
Forrest Gump. What an actor Tom Hank Hanks is, but
he's woke. We both said, if Tom would just shut
up and act, just shut up and act. And even
(39:46):
the commercial Sharon, why is it? Why is it nearly
all that the car commercials out there today have mixed
couples and it's always the woman that's driving the car.
(40:07):
Why is that? Because you cannot have a commercial where
a black man is driving a white woman. Now it's
the white woman who's in the driver's seat driving the
black man. All right, Remember driving Miss Daisy. It was
a terrific movie, a black man driving a white woman.
(40:29):
But even today that's not politically correct. You know what,
where is this? Where is this going? Let people do
what they want to do. Well, why do you have
to push it so far? Why do you have to
anger some people with your political correctness?
Speaker 2 (40:50):
Right?
Speaker 1 (40:50):
I don't know, right, I know that's controversial what I
just said, but it's watch watch the commercials. I think
the commercials are worse than the shows in showing mixed couples,
in showing gay couples. And then you know why they
do it, because they think they can get away with it,
(41:12):
that no one will ever speak out about it, you know, Sharon,
I wonder how the black community, in particular black females,
how they feel about black men portrayed as having white
girlfriends and white wives. I wonder how the black women
(41:32):
feel about that. You know, when you've got eighty percent
of the Black households that there's no man in the picture,
and black women say that there aren't a lot of
good black men out there. Yet you see so many
of these shows, so many of these commercials, mixed couples,
(41:59):
black men, white woman. Like I said, people want to
do that, that's up to them, but that's not showing America,
just like showing all the gayness is not showing America.
I would I still say, Sharon, that they're about two
percent out there who are gay. That's not America. That's
(42:24):
a very very small minority. Now. What and obviously when
the media in television has has done is they've pushed
it and pushed it and pushed it, and they've really
made it a fad. A lot of teenage girls today
will go, We'll say to you, I've dated a woman,
(42:48):
they've experimented in dating women. Why have they experimented with
dating women? Because it's pushed by the media, you know, Sharon,
I do believe that we have two major, major major
problems in America. One is the media, the other is academia,
and the media and academia work together to push these narratives.
(43:14):
With that bet that I bet this, I bet there's
going to be a lot of people angered by what
just is my observation, Sharon, They're just my observations. And
with that, we do need to go to a breaking
you are listening to and watching Conservative Commandos, Sharon and
I will be back right after these messages.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
And welcome back. Welcome back to your Conservative Commandos with
Sharon Angle. I'm Rick Trader, coming to you from the
My Pillar Studios and My Store studios of the a
UN Television Network. So, Sharon, you got some news for
us about a major, major hotel chain.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
Yeah, this this came out just yesterday, but a billion
dollar hotel company collapsed overnight and guests woke up homeless
with their belongings in trash bags after Marriott branded hotels
filed for bankruptcy. So these are Marriott International's partner company,
(45:57):
Saunder abruptly collapsed in bankruptcy, forcing immediate evacuations mid stay.
So it's not just oh, we're going to go bankrupt,
you know, we're going to file our Chapter thirteen and
move on. No, these people were evicted. Basically, the sudden
(46:18):
shutdown left countless guests scrambling to find alternative lodging with
little or no warning. And this is from Boston to Dubai.
It's all over the world. This happened with this Sounder,
Marriotte International's partner company sunder and this abrupt collapse. I've
(46:42):
never heard of such a thing. Course, someone to go
that completely bankrupt, that they couldn't even keep their doors open,
and everybody is just kind of kicked out in the street.
They filed on Monday, following mayor Yet International's termination of
its licensing agreement. The company, once valued it over one
(47:06):
billion dollars positioned as a competitor to Airbnb, was forced
to cease operations immediately.
Speaker 1 (47:15):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (47:16):
The bankruptcy filing came less than one year after Sonder
rebranded itself as Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy. The twenty twenty
four partnership had allowed the company to list its properties
as Marriott's booking platform on Marriott's booking platform and website,
and reports indicated that the two companies encountered significant difficulty
(47:41):
integrating their booking systems. Company executives described the technical challenges
contributing to a sharp decline in revenue, and then interim
CEO Janie Sears released a statement, we are devastated to
the point where liquidation is the only viable path, and
(48:01):
the evacuation order caught guests completely off guard when Marriott
and Saunder jointly instructed them to vacate their rooms on Sunday.
Many travelers were only halfway through their plan stays when
they received the notice. So there they are out on
the street. I've never heard of such a thing, such
(48:24):
a thing, and I can't imagine, you know, that that
any good will come out of that kind of a
quick evacuation, because people won't. You know, Marriott's now got
a bad taste in everybody's mouth that had any kind
of bookings in this with this Saunder company that had
(48:48):
come in, and so it's going to bleed into the
Marriotte brand. And I think the worst is yet to come.
Speaker 1 (48:58):
Well, cheron, do you remember and tell you where I'm
going in a minute. You remember when you got caught
in Israel? What the most reason were That it took
you a week or two to get home, and that
you had to repay for airfare to get home, and
that the mess that was Well, what Marytt is telling
(49:22):
your guests are is to go after their credit card
company to get reimbursements. Now, I don't know about you,
but I have put disputes on my credit cards for
different things from time to time. And the first thing
they tell you is, well, have you contacted the company yet?
Have you contacted the company that you have this problem with?
(49:46):
So Marriott's telling these poor people, and I say poor,
I don't mean poor the fact that they don't have money.
I'm just saying I'm calling them poor because they're put
in a real predicament. Now they've got to go fight
with the credit card company. And you know, Sharon, there
are people who when they travel, make their reservations in
(50:11):
the future. I'm sure that there are a lot of
guests that have booked Marriott hotels. I'm sure that there
are a lot of like weddings that have been planned
at Marriott hotels. And now these people are really going
to be stuck in the lurch.
Speaker 2 (50:29):
Well, and it wasn't Marriott. Now let's be clear about this.
This was a partnership that they'd made with Sonder Airbnb,
and it was their termination Marriott. So this is a
domino effect. Marriott says, we can no longer do business together,
and Sounder says, if you're not doing business with us,
(50:52):
we can't keep the doors open. And then they are
the ones that sent out the notice you've got less
than twenty four hours to vacate the property because the
partnership with Marriott is terminated. Some people were right in
the middle of their stays, so they had to go
(51:13):
out and spend more money to find.
Speaker 1 (51:18):
You have to go out and spend more money for
more commodations. And then they got a fight with the
credit card company. Get it. Do you get a refund?
Speaker 2 (51:27):
And this guy, he's a business owner sixty three years
old from Arkansas that had his Saunder apartment in Boston
and all of his he returned to it, so he
didn't even realize that this was going to happen. So
all his stuff is in this apartment. He returns and
(51:48):
all of his luggage has been packed up and placed
in the hallway without his knowledge or consent. And he says, quote,
they handled all our personal belongings, toiletries, in computers, electronics,
Some they packed into suitcases and some they put in
plastic bags. It was quite shocking. Yes, you know, you
(52:11):
have all of your stuff that you brought and it's
just sitting out in the hallway, pretty vulnerable. You know,
somebody could come along and snatch it, I mean steal it.
So it wasn't just don't find another place to stay.
It's your jump. Your stuff isn't valuable to us, and
therefore it's out.
Speaker 8 (52:32):
In the hall.
Speaker 1 (52:34):
Wonderful it is that Guy Rica, retired banker who was
supposed to stay at a Sounder property in New York
City for four days in December, said on Sunday that
Marriott had not provided him a refund or a solution
after several phone calls. He said his credit card was
(52:55):
charged eight hundred dollars for the stay. Their advice literally,
well to go fight to charge with the credit card company.
Speaker 2 (53:05):
So here we go right here.
Speaker 1 (53:07):
Absolutely, it's and.
Speaker 2 (53:13):
You know the problem with all of this goes right
to Sounder, maybe bankrupt and out of business, but what
did it do to Marriott.
Speaker 1 (53:24):
I'm not going to say that I'm not.
Speaker 2 (53:26):
Probably going to stay in a Marriotta. That's what happens
to their subsidiaries. They're not far behind. I think, I'm
you know, I'll find somebody else that I trust not
to do something like this. And that's the problem is
they're just you know, they have not only hurt their customers,
(53:51):
But they've hurt any customers that will come along in
the future. Nobody wants that, you know, They don't want
to know that. I put my stuff in my room.
I locked it up and went out and explored and
was having a great time. When I got home. There
(54:11):
it is sitting in the hall that anybody could walk
down take my computer. They even put it in trash bags,
so you know, it wasn't even a good packing job.
Speaker 1 (54:25):
I'm sure. How would you feel about.
Speaker 2 (54:26):
Bringing it in in trash bags?
Speaker 1 (54:29):
How would you feel about a total stranger picking up
your personal items and putting it in a trash bag? Well,
you're not in your room.
Speaker 2 (54:39):
Right and you take your computer on vacation. Oh yeah,
and it's a it's just sitting out there on the
in the hall. You've got an equipment that cost you
a couple one thousand dollars and now it's just there.
How did they treat it when they did? They just
put it in the bag and toss it. You know,
(55:00):
I mean there could be damages there. Who's going to
pay for the damage to your personal things?
Speaker 1 (55:08):
Mary wants you to go argue with your credit card
company that.
Speaker 2 (55:11):
They didn't pay for your personal things. I mean, I
think you're just sadly out of luck.
Speaker 1 (55:15):
On that, I think you are too. I'll tell you
what else we're out of luck on time for this second,
Let's go to a break, and this is the Conservative
Commanders for Sharon Angelo, i'mor Trader. And after this break,
we're going to be playing some of the best of

Welcome back, Welcome back to the Conservative Commandos Radio Show
with Sharon Engel and yours truly Rick Trader, coming to
you from the My Pelis studios to My Store studios
of the au n TV network, and Sharon our first
guest that today is with us, and please make that introduction.
Speaker 2 (57:36):
My pleasure an honor to introduce Jason Isaac, who is
the CEO and founder of American Energy Institute and former
Texas representative. Jason Welcome back to the Conservative Commandos radio show.
Speaker 8 (57:50):
Daron, thanks for kind of introduction. Rick. Always good to
see you all and be with you and hear you
in a happy new year. And it's exciting times.
Speaker 2 (57:58):
It is. It's very exciting. I think we've been groaning
under the strain of the last four years and we're
eager to move ahead with something that actually brings us
back to what we were considering normal four years before this.
And it's unbelievable what's been going on in just the
(58:20):
last week. It seems like the undermining of our nation
has just been put into a hyperdrive. There's a concerted
effort to do everything possible to restrain the new administration
from doing what needs to be done. I want to
talk to you about especially we've been just saying drill, baby, drill,
(58:45):
because that's what President Trump says, is drill, baby drill.
But it really is more. It's more important than just drilling.
Would you talk to us just about how necessary it
is for us to open up energy in this country.
Speaker 6 (59:03):
It's a part of everything that we depend on in
our daily lives. It's led to the greatest advancements of
mankind ever in the history of mankind. This access to
affordable and reliable energy. And you know, I've got a
couple of young boys and I tell them that time
travel really exists, and they kind of look at me.
Speaker 8 (59:21):
Like wide eyed. I'm like, really, wow, And it really does.
Speaker 6 (59:25):
It's just called travel, and you can travel to places
that don't have affordable and reliable energy.
Speaker 8 (59:32):
And they're living like we lived one hundred and fifty
years ago.
Speaker 6 (59:36):
Their life expectancies are twenty years less than they are
of what we experience. They don't have access to heating
and cooling, and there's nearly eight hundred million people on
the planet that have no access to electricity at all,
so tenth of our global population. I couldn't imagine that.
(59:56):
Not being able to refrigerate food, not being able.
Speaker 8 (59:58):
To heat and cool our homes.
Speaker 6 (01:00:01):
Just the little things that we take for granted. Not
having running water, I mean.
Speaker 8 (01:00:04):
That requires electricity.
Speaker 6 (01:00:06):
And so you've got that, and there's three billion people
on the planet that have access to just enough electricity
to power a refrigerator and know they're not powering a refrigerator.
Sometimes they are charging lights, or they're charging cell phones.
Interestingly enough, they will have cell phones or radios or
some sort of communication devices that are made of hydrocarbons,
(01:00:28):
but they don't have access to that powerful electricity that
can really heat and cool to help us mitigate a climate,
a climate that changes constantly with the seasons. That can
access to energy really is a lifesaver in those times.
And so that's that's why I exist, that's why I
work for every single day. I represent American energy producers
(01:00:50):
that support free markets and affordable energy, and the board
members and the members of my organization, these companies that
are primarily in the oil, gas, coal, and nuclear space,
are excited about a new administration, excited about the potential
free markets eliminating some of the subsidies and allowing the
cost of.
Speaker 8 (01:01:10):
Energy to decrease.
Speaker 6 (01:01:11):
And there's probably not any big trade organizations that represent
energy producers that want to see.
Speaker 8 (01:01:17):
The cost of a barrel of oil decrease.
Speaker 6 (01:01:19):
But unfortunately for me and the companies that I represent,
and their leadership teams recognize the benefits to mankind when
you have affordable energy, and they're okay with the cost
of energy decreasing, because that's going to advance human the
human condition, and lift the rest of.
Speaker 8 (01:01:35):
The world's population out of abject poverty. And that would
be a victory for all of us.
Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
Well, I'm glad you mentioned that, because that's the always
the go to from the other side. Well, it's just
these big oil companies making lots of money off the
backs of the poor little workers when so they don't
want energy costs to go lower. You know, it's their
fault that we have five dollars a gallon gas. And honestly,
(01:02:03):
since Trump was elected, we've seen our gas here in
Nevada go from that high four dollar a gallon price
to under three. So we're finally seeing that ease off,
and just in those a few weeks since the election.
But this is the troubling part. Biden now has banned
(01:02:28):
new oil and gas drilling along most of the US coasts.
Why now doesn't he realize that this can be reversed
immediately as Trump goes into office? Or does he? Do
they think, and I shouldn't say does Biden because we
know this is some kind of group that really has control.
(01:02:51):
Because we know that the former president can't string two
thoughts together by himself generally speaking. So this is there's
somebody else controlling this game, and maybe you have a
thought about that as well. But I want you to
talk about why this and why now?
Speaker 6 (01:03:08):
Yeah, this is absolutely appalling because it is it's you know,
Americans are getting crushed with higher cost of energy.
Speaker 8 (01:03:14):
Electricity costs have skyrocketed.
Speaker 6 (01:03:17):
I was reading something from when I was in the
legislature right at about a decade ago, and how the
cost of electricity had decreased over the years proceeding.
Speaker 8 (01:03:25):
Five or six seven years before I got an legislature.
Speaker 6 (01:03:27):
Electricity costs were decreasing from that time point, and here
we are they're rising significantly, and that's crushing the least
among us. It's driving industry to foreign countries. It's making
us more dependent on China. And the President Biden has
come out and banned offshore drilling and it's actually it's
going to be very difficult to fight this band. And
(01:03:49):
he must have a lot of friends that are lawyers
because they're going to get rich litigating this, and it's
unfortunately it's going to take litigation. You know, when I
was in the legislature in states like New York with
band fracking. You know, I thought, hey, this is great,
then Texas will just fill the void. Well, it's really
not great for American economic prosperity, it's not good for
national security in New York. It's not great for the
(01:04:11):
precedence of them stealing private property rights from the people
in New York that are sitting over natural gas that
would love to earn some money off of their private
property that was taken away from.
Speaker 8 (01:04:20):
Them by the legislature in New York.
Speaker 6 (01:04:22):
And so Texas that were unfortunately or we're fortunately in
a good situation because we have more shoreline than any
state in the nation, and so we're going to be
the ones that are filling the void. This is where
the offshore drilling and exploration is going to happen on
the Texas coast until these lawsuits can be remedied and settled.
(01:04:43):
In this executive order from the Biden administration can be overruled,
but it's going to take some time. It can't happen
on day one, which is really unfortunate. And I just
don't know why the Biden and it's not Biden, it's
the administration.
Speaker 8 (01:04:57):
It's this deep state behind him that's doing this.
Speaker 6 (01:05:02):
They're they're the ones pulling the strings, and I think
that needs to be challenged. These executive orders that he's
writing now, these pardons that he's so so you know,
supposedly writing now and issuing now, those need to be investigated.
Speaker 8 (01:05:16):
I mean, if he is.
Speaker 6 (01:05:17):
Someone that can't stand trial because he's old and feeble.
I can't remember the exact words that was used by
I believe it was a Department of Justice with that
interviewed him and just said, you know, he's a well intentioned,
well meaning, you know, someone that can't remember certain things.
Speaker 8 (01:05:35):
Uh, you know, is he really in a position to
be doing what he's doing?
Speaker 6 (01:05:39):
And unfortunately he's doing a great disservice and a lot
of damage to American economic prosperity to the benefit of China,
which is just appalling to me.
Speaker 8 (01:05:49):
So it's going to take some time.
Speaker 6 (01:05:51):
President Trump's going to be incredibly successful and drill baby,
drill and lowering the cost of energy and increasing our
energy abundance.
Speaker 8 (01:05:58):
But we're going to have to do it more in states.
Speaker 6 (01:06:00):
Like Texas, in Alaska where we're doing it onshore.
Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
So do you believe that's the whole push, the whole
agenda behind this is just if you can't beat him,
bury him in so many things that he can't do
what he needs to do, that it's going to slim
down just because he's just buried in things that have
(01:06:25):
to be done. Is that why we're seeing this? Is
that the diabolical agenda?
Speaker 6 (01:06:33):
Yeah, yeah, it's a continuation of the deep state bureaucracy.
You'll look, I do a lot of research on electric vehicles,
and it's not just this seventy five hundred dollars tax
credit that electric vehicle buyers get that was extended in
the so called Inflation Reduction Act. There are a myriad
other mandates and I'm really excited to see some of
(01:06:54):
these financial institutions JPM JP Morgan announced.
Speaker 8 (01:06:58):
It came out today that they're leave the.
Speaker 6 (01:07:00):
UN's Net zero Banking Alliance earlier this week and the
earlier this year City Group. But it's kind of like
meta now saying that they support free speech all of
a sudden, It's like, are they just you know, waving
with the wind. Are they going with the political times
and pandering saying that, oh, we support free speech All
of a sudden, now we support you know, fiduciary responsibility,
(01:07:21):
not these political agendas. But it's unfortunately these global financial
institutions are still adhering to the same principles. So they've
they've left the party, if you will, But we're still
going to support the same principles of this crazy net
zero agenda that does nothing to mitigate a changing climate.
Speaker 8 (01:07:38):
It just increases the cost of everything.
Speaker 6 (01:07:40):
But it'd be great if the automobile manufacturers would have
abandoned these agendas, because now you see companies like Ford
and they're coming out and saying, oh, don't, don't, don't
repeal the ev mandate, And it's really a death by
a thousand cuts, or a mandate by a thousand cuts,
which is what the Biden administration is doing on the
way out the door. And it's going to take a
(01:08:01):
thousand band aids to fix that. But I think what
this doze is going to do, this Department of Government
Efficiency is going to be able to do, is really
identify and get rid of some of the inefficiencies within
our government.
Speaker 8 (01:08:15):
That's going to be more freedom for you and I.
Speaker 6 (01:08:17):
It's going to be us keeping more of our tax
dollars in our pockets, and really the economy is going
to take off, because every time you do a tax cut,
consumers have more money, they spend more money. It becomes
very circular and it helps the economy and everybody wins.
And so I'm quite anxious and excited about those prospects
me too.
Speaker 2 (01:08:36):
Well, there is something that I want you to clarify
here in the statement that Trump made. He said we
don't have enough electricity and then we have AI where
we need more. So talk about the relationship here that
he's talking about between this banning of offshore drilling and
(01:09:00):
this increase in AI artificial intelligence.
Speaker 8 (01:09:06):
Yeah, it really is.
Speaker 6 (01:09:07):
There are some studies that show that we're going to
have a sixty to one hundred percent demand increase for
electricity from today's needs to twenty thirty.
Speaker 8 (01:09:15):
But you have these woke utilities.
Speaker 6 (01:09:19):
They're publicly traded utilities that just happen to be owned
by these companies that are leaving the un Net Zero
Banking Alliance and these other net zero cartels. They're colluding
and you look like some of the utilities out there
that are owned by black Rock, Vanguarden, State Street, these
very companies that have been driving them to attain net
(01:09:40):
zero emissions by a certain day. Driving the board members
to adopt Paris Climate Accord requirements. These things don't do
anything to mitigate a change in climate. They just make
energy more expensive, and these utilities are happy to pass
along the cost of consumers. In some cases, they're guaranteed
a nine percent rate of return. A lot of Americans
(01:10:00):
would love a nine percent rate of return in their
four oh one case.
Speaker 8 (01:10:03):
But these utilities don't mind exchanging.
Speaker 6 (01:10:06):
And re retiring early, retiring a coal fired power plant
in this country that we produce and use more responsible
than anywhere else on the planet.
Speaker 8 (01:10:15):
They don't mind retiring that and replacing it with so called.
Speaker 6 (01:10:18):
Unreliable or so called reliable or renewable forgive me, I
call it unreliables is wind.
Speaker 8 (01:10:25):
They're just passing the cost of that.
Speaker 6 (01:10:27):
And we're seeing more and more companies that are in
wind and solar are losing money. They're asking for rate
increases around the world to cover their cost. But it
doesn't provide electricity when we need it. They are parasites
on our grid. We need affordable and reliable I've been
working for the better part of the last half a
(01:10:49):
decade now trying to get policy makers to stop talking
about in all of the above energy policy or energy strategy.
All of the above includes heavily subsized, Chinese made things
that don't work on demand, don't work when you need them.
We need an affordable and reliable energy policy, preferably an
(01:11:12):
affordable and reliable American energy strategy that actually does reduce
costs and improve reliability. But I was talking with a
policy maker recently in Texas and she was asking about
battery storage, and I said, battery storage cost over four
hundred dollars a megawat hour compared to the eighteen that
(01:11:34):
we're paying in the market right now, and four hundred
dollars a megawat hour to last for minutes.
Speaker 8 (01:11:41):
The last time I.
Speaker 6 (01:11:42):
Checked, storms aren't measured in minutes. They're measured in days
and sometimes weeks. Coal fire generation, which we have a
lot of here in the United States, we need more
of it because thanks to our world leading pollution control technology,
we've become world leaders and clean air in this country.
Billions of people that I talked about earlier would love
to experience.
Speaker 8 (01:12:03):
But we need more of that. Because you can keep
six to.
Speaker 6 (01:12:06):
Nine months, not minutes, months of coal on on site,
it is great.
Speaker 8 (01:12:14):
You could ramp it up, you can ramp it down.
Speaker 6 (01:12:16):
We need more coal, natural gas, and nuclear electricity generation
in our grid to meet today's needs, let alone tomorrow's needs.
Speaker 2 (01:12:26):
I'm so glad you're mentioning all this because I live
in a state where hydroelectric drink is almost impossible. Even
in Las Vegas, where the Colorado River is supposed to
be supplying. If you've driven over that dam or been
near it in the last two or three years, you
know there's no water there and the poll on it
(01:12:48):
from other states is just incredible. So we need that
coal fired. We need to bring it from Wyoming or
wherever we can get it. We need that to come in.
Also have an unlimited, almost supply of nuclear recycling that
we could do if we could just get people to
(01:13:10):
listen to our abilities here in the state to become
something that could actually supply nuclear energy for the whole
southwest of our nation. These things just seem to have
completely gone off the table. Now. We're seeing even in
my state, and especially in my state thanks to Harry Reid,
(01:13:34):
fields and fields of solar in places where no one lives.
So that means you collect it, but now you've got
to transport it. How does that happen? So, and we do.
Even though we have three hundred and sixty sunshiny days
a year here, we do have those five. Like you said,
(01:13:55):
sometimes they come in a row. So it's you know,
I'm just so happy to hear you talking about this.
It's almost this dream land that people are living in
when they get into this electric vehicle stuff. We can't
(01:14:16):
own the electric vehicles really in Nevada.
Speaker 8 (01:14:19):
It's too far.
Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
We got charging stations, but you might runt out in
charge before you get to the next one. It's just
too far. Talk about all of what needs to happen
and how quickly we need to have it happen in
order for people like us who are dependent on energy
(01:14:41):
from other sources.
Speaker 8 (01:14:43):
Well we do.
Speaker 6 (01:14:44):
We need to get closer to a free market that
values affordability and reliability when it comes to electric generation.
They almost if you're reliable and dispatchable, you should get
some sort of first step onto the grid rather than
these variable sources of generation.
Speaker 8 (01:15:02):
We can't predict accurately what the weather's.
Speaker 6 (01:15:04):
Going to do in two weeks or three weeks, but
I can tell you in fifteen years, a natural gas
power plant built within the last decade is still going
to be online and be able to produce consistent electricity.
The same thing with coal generation. You could have a
coal fired power plant that lasts forty years. Wind and
solar you're gonna have to replace every ten years. They
(01:15:27):
just don't last. They just don't provide electricity truly when
we need them on a consistent basis, And so we
need some serious market reform to value that reliability and
resiliency dependability.
Speaker 8 (01:15:41):
It's so critical.
Speaker 6 (01:15:42):
But you talked about the land destruction, I mean the
Joshua tree destruction that's happening, These endangered trees that are
absolutely being destroyed and mode over.
Speaker 8 (01:15:52):
I know Michael Moore.
Speaker 6 (01:15:53):
I don't typically recommend Michael Moore films, but he covered
that a little bit in his film called Planet of
the Humans. How he was out protesting mountain top removal
to get to the coal underneath. And now he's out
protesting mountain tops from being removed because they're replacing them
with wind and just the massive them. Seventy to five
times more land is required for solar than nuclear to
(01:16:18):
produce an equivalent amount of electricity when the sun is shining,
But that nuclear power plan will lasts fifty to seventy
years compared to the solar that's going to have to
be replaced again in ten years. That's Chinese made. The
nuclear's made right here. You're right, We've got to reduce
the regulatory hurdles. That's why I'm so excited about Chris Wright,
(01:16:38):
President Trump's nominee to be the Secretary of Energy.
Speaker 8 (01:16:42):
I know him well.
Speaker 6 (01:16:42):
He's a member of our trade organization or His company
is Liberty Energy out of Denver. He's the first person
that will have energy experience that's going to lead the
Department of Energy. I think this is absolutely fascinating that
we're going to have someone with an energy back.
Speaker 8 (01:17:00):
This is someone who's studied nuclear energy at it. He's
a scientist.
Speaker 6 (01:17:04):
He is absolutely brilliant and has had a high pressure
hydraulic fracturing company based in Denver with a huge footprint
in Texas. So I'm really excited about him and getting
rid of the deep state bureaucracy that seems to be
opposed to those things that work well, and that's hydrocarbons
and nuclear And I.
Speaker 1 (01:17:24):
Want to thank our guests for sticking with us through
the breaking that's Jason Isaac he's the founder and CEO
of the American Energy Institute. And guess what we're discussing today.
We're discussing energy. Jason, I gotta ask you about this
Continental Shelf Lands Act, the one that Joe Biden has
(01:17:47):
now said, Well, because of this Continental Shelf Land Act,
nobody can droll in over seven hundred what millions of
continental shelf tell us what about this outer continental shelf fact.
Speaker 6 (01:18:08):
Well, and this is an egregious abuse of private property
rights because you can actually and it's.
Speaker 8 (01:18:15):
Just hurting our country.
Speaker 6 (01:18:17):
You look at the stuff that he's done on the
federal lands around the country. The money that goes from
producing oil and gas on those lands goes into the
purse of the federal government. It benefits our parks around
the country.
Speaker 8 (01:18:32):
And he's cut that off.
Speaker 6 (01:18:33):
He's denying leasing on these on the federal lands to
the benefit of the taxpayers, so that we don't I mean,
the key to ending our federal deficit and balancing our
budget and ending poverty around the world lies under our feet.
And it's the energy that we produce more responsibly than
anywhere on the planet. And Joe Biden is just coming out, well,
it's really it's really not him. You know, what was
(01:18:54):
it that I think the DOJ said, you know, an
elderly man with a poor memory. I think that that's
a quote of what they said about him in one
of the reports of why he couldn't stand trial because
he's an elderly man with poor memory. But here he is,
his administration, his deep state people that are pulling the strings,
are sending kind of this middle finger to America on
the way out the door. And I'm sure the Chinese
(01:19:17):
are just loving it. They're laughing all the way to
the Bank at US. But this is this is one
of those things it's going to be difficult to undo
when the Trump administration comes into office.
Speaker 8 (01:19:28):
Here, I believe in twelve.
Speaker 6 (01:19:30):
Days counting down until the hours of minutes until we
get back to some sanity in Washington, d c. Which
is going to be great for the Americans, But it's
going to take some time to undo this particular process
that President Biden is doing right now.
Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
Well, Jason will have to go through the courts, We'll
have to go through Congress. What steps are going to
have to what what hurdles they're going to have to
be jumped.
Speaker 6 (01:19:58):
Well, I've got a note that says that the Federal
District Court in twenty nineteen said that a president can't
revoke a previous president's withdrawal of waters from leasing under
section twelve A of the Outer Continental Shelf Lansact that
you reference. So this is one of those that we're
going to have to and it maybe have to be
(01:20:20):
done through reconciliation. You may have to pass a law,
get a law of Congress to undo this, which could
be done. You've got this period now, you have this
window really through now until July.
Speaker 8 (01:20:33):
If you will.
Speaker 6 (01:20:34):
I think that's when things are going to move at
a quick pace to get some things done both within
the House and the Senate and signed by the president.
Speaker 8 (01:20:43):
You know, hopefully we.
Speaker 6 (01:20:44):
Can continue happy times with the House and the Senate
beyond July. But from my political experience, things are going
to get a little bit heated. People start to get
tired of one another, and they'll need to take a
long recess, take a break from each other. But I'm
optimistic that going to be able to get some things done,
and I hope that we're resending this changing.
Speaker 8 (01:21:04):
The law that would allow us to lease.
Speaker 6 (01:21:07):
But here again, you've got financial companies I mean when
President Biden paused the LNG export terminal, within a week
you had a new The capital moved overnight. Companies were
looking to invest in the United States and LNG export terminals,
and boom, they went right overseas to Qatar, now the
largest exporter of LNG to Europe.
Speaker 8 (01:21:30):
Qatar, not USA. It could be USA, but it's not.
It's cutter. And this is just absolute appalling.
Speaker 6 (01:21:37):
And so that capital that's sitting out there, that's looking
to be invested for a positive return to produce energy
is now looking other places. And so you're going to
have six months of issues to dealing with Congress to
get them to pass something, and then you're going to
have another year and a half or two years trying
to bring capital back.
Speaker 8 (01:21:55):
In to invest in these leases.
Speaker 6 (01:21:57):
So it's just detrimental what President bid is doing here
and just the waning moments of his presidency.
Speaker 1 (01:22:04):
Jason, I know it's been a very busy day for you,
and you've got another interview right after ours, but I
hope you have time for this one last question. How
much gas and oil is estimated that is under this
six hundred and twenty five million acres that Joe Biden
has just said no drilling to.
Speaker 6 (01:22:26):
Well, you're gonna stump me on this one because I
don't have the numbers off the top of my head,
but I can tell you regardless, it doesn't shift production.
It doesn't shift it doesn't shift demand. When the president
does this, when he denies access to producing oil and
gas on federal lands, it just moves production to other
places around the world like Venezuela, Iran, Saudi Arabia, places
(01:22:48):
that could care less about the environment, and shifts energy
production to China. I mean, for the first time ever
into the Biden administration, China is exporting energy because they
were buying oil. Ignore the Biden administration completely ignoring the
sanctions on Iran went from selling a billion dollars of
oil a year or I'm sorry, a month to over
(01:23:08):
five billion dollars a month from Iran to China. And
China expanding their electric generation with affordable.
Speaker 8 (01:23:16):
Cheap, reliable coal fired electricity. They're exporting energy. They were
increasing their.
Speaker 6 (01:23:22):
Refining capacity, and again, for the first time ever, China
is exporting energy in the forms of diesel, jet fuel,
and home heating oil. They've always been a consumer of energy,
and during the Biden administration. It has been their plan
has been China first from the get go, not America first.
With President Trump, it's going to be America first, and
we're going to produce more oil, produce it more responsible
(01:23:44):
than anywhere else on the planet. Some of the majors
may fight it because they don't like the cost of
a barrel of oil going down, but the consumers are
going to love it.
Speaker 8 (01:23:52):
The economy is going to love it, and it's going
to be a great win win.
Speaker 1 (01:23:55):

Speaker 3 (01:27:39):
Charn Rick, It is great to be with you both again.
Happy New Year, Thank you.
Speaker 2 (01:27:44):
Happy New Year to you as well.
Speaker 8 (01:27:46):
Well.
Speaker 2 (01:27:47):
I think we all want to know we've been watching
China rattle sabers in many different ways for the last
four years that they pressure has been off. They've got
a friendly in the White House, maybe many friendlies in
(01:28:07):
the White House. It seems like that old song that
was sung during the tea party days, There's a Communist
in the White House, could have been sung through these
last four years. Talk to us a little bit about
fighting China's unfair trade and how you feel that Trump
(01:28:30):
is going to have to position himself with China.
Speaker 3 (01:28:37):
There's some preliminary steps that President Trump is going to
have to take, and take very quickly. Number One, the
United States is not producing the critical materials it needs
to defend itself from China in so many different ways, Sharon.
First of all, we've got to start getting alternate sources
for our medical supplies. China holes in near monopoly on that.
(01:28:58):
During COVID in the early days, my son, because he
had to wear a mask for his professional purposes, ordered
masks that he could wear. He got his delivery package,
he opened it up and said, a proud product of Wuhan, China.
That tells you everything you need to know about that
particular issue. Number two, the United States has to get
(01:29:21):
serious about its defense industrial base. Should we go into
a shooting war with China or any other kind of
significant conflict. We only have about enough munitions to last
us about a month. We're simply not producing it fast enough.
That has to be spread up. The United States has
to go on when it comes to things like medical supplies.
(01:29:42):
When it comes to munitions, we need to go on
almost a wartime footing to enable us to overcome any
challenge from China. We hope it doesn't come, but one
way to ensure it doesn't come is to make sure
that if it does come, the United States can defend
itself both medically and in the field battle. Those two
things have to be done almost immediately. Perhaps it's not sexy,
(01:30:05):
perhaps it's not all that sensational. It's just the basics
of what has to be done. We talk about what
happens if we go into a battle with China. I
think in many ways we already in that battle. If
you've heard the news about China cutting that cable to Taiwan,
they did the same thing to Sweden. Indeed, the opposition
(01:30:26):
party in Sweden is demanding that the government invoked Article
five of the NATO Treaty, that the NATO country has
come to the defense of Sweden as it tries to
protect itself from the Chinese cutting its cables and interfering
with the economic life of Sweden. We are in some
very serious times right now. I think in many ways
(01:30:48):
it's the normal reaction. We try to reduce the impact
of it. We try to say, well, it's not really
that bad. I have to say this in the start
of this new year. It is that bad. We are
in deadly serious time. The Russians have invaded Ukraine, the
sweet The Chinese are assaulting in many ways Taiwan without
actually putting troops on the ground, but they are certainly
(01:31:10):
doing that, certainly assaulting Taiwan. They are assaulting the American economy.
Things are bad. We've had four years of utter neglective
American defense. We've also had four years of a president
who has influenced pedal to China and as weakened America
in response to who're in payment for that money that
his family collected. We are in serious times, and I
(01:31:31):
think a lot of things are going to have to
be done very quickly, urgently, quickly by the Trump administration.
Speaker 2 (01:31:39):
I'm really glad you're mentioning medical supplies. I don't think
that people really understand what we're talking about here is
not just masks. My grandson has been in the hospital
for almost a month now, and today the nurse knuck
in and she says, I got the last bag, the
last bag of sailing They use so much, so many
(01:32:02):
sailing bags in the hospital to keep things open and draining,
to keep things clean, and she grabbed the last bag.
Why is it the last bag? What's this shortiest problem
that we're having and you're saying, maybe because we can't
(01:32:23):
get the supplies that we need right now even is
that true?
Speaker 3 (01:32:28):
Yeah, I believe it is. But there's also another problem.
We talk about using India as an alternative source for
medical supplies. Here's the problem, though, the basic material for
those supplies the Indians are getting from China. So we
are in a real pickle when it comes to that
sort of thing. We need to recognize that reality. It's
(01:32:49):
not that this is rocket science. We don't need to
invent something. We just need to open up the facilities.
Speaker 1 (01:32:55):
Now.
Speaker 3 (01:32:56):
At first, perhaps some of those facilities might be unprofitable
because the Chinese are undercutting us. But nevertheless, we have
to get serious about this. We are in a wartime
situation and we need to recognize that those munition lines
and that those medical supply lines have to be opened
up the United States, whether they make a profit or not.
Speaker 2 (01:33:17):
At this point, another thing that came up in our
you know, I was just at the hospital, so it's
kind of in my brains here. We had to go
to a different appliance for his tracheostomy, and this one
comes from Germany. And my daughter said, well, at least
(01:33:37):
it doesn't come from China. However, what you're saying is no,
it could be coming from China, because just China supplies
all over the world.
Speaker 3 (01:33:48):
Yeah, that's exactly right. And of course, you know, one
of the things that we hope happens very quickly, and
Biden has been working to prevent this from happening, is
that America will use its influence and energy to open
up supply lines. Now, one of the craziest things that
I've heard of is when the Biden administration is trying
to preserve its energy policies into the Trump administration. One
(01:34:11):
of the main reasons Trump beat Biden was that Biden's
energy policies destroyed the American economy and closed this runaway
inflation that we've got. For Biden to attempt to slap
the American people in the face by continuing those energy policies,
by engaging in executive orders to prohibit drilling on the
West Coast, East Coast, and the Gulf Coast, it is
(01:34:34):
just insane on the part of his administration. It's really
a slap in the face of the American people. It's
not so easy though to overcome it. You might think, well,
Trump on Day one can simply have an executive order
that can overcome the Biden executive order, except that there's
all sorts of legal entanglements that might take the court
(01:34:55):
some time to get through. If you remember sharing the
first Trump administration and Trump trying to prevent terrorsts from
coming into the country, and Trump put in those efforts
to say, well, if you're coming from a country that
seems to be prone to terrorism, we're going to stop
you from getting into the country. The Democrats brought him
to court and Knight Circuit out in the West Coast,
and they try to put a block on President Trump
(01:35:17):
doing that. This is exactly what they're doing the same
thing all over again, only this time with energy resources.
So we're looking at court battles going into the first
couple of months of the Trump administration. It's going to
slow down the Trump agenda.
Speaker 2 (01:35:32):
Well, this whole idea of the Communists being right at
our doorstep and possibly in our White House. There is
a bill now and it is the Restoring Trade Fairness
Act to stop Chinese Communist Party from taking advantage of America.
(01:35:55):
Talk about that act and how that stopped the Chinese
Communists from doing this.
Speaker 3 (01:36:02):
Well, I understand what happened at the start of the
Biden administration. He recalled that the tense espionage that China
has engaged in the United States, stealing industrial and military secrets,
was a problem immediately recognized by Donald Trump in this
first term. So we put in anti espionage efforts to
slow down the Chinese spine. But what is the first
thing that one of the first things that Joe Biden
(01:36:23):
did when he took office, he repealed that measure. Why
you would do it is beyond any of logic unless
you realize that the Biden people were bought off by
the Chinese. So the first thing to do is to
stop Chinese espionage. The second thing, and this is a
bit longer term, China has intense influence in the American
(01:36:44):
educational system. We've heard of Confucius institutes in our colleges,
but it goes beyond that. China has influenced in textbook manufacturing,
even in grammar school, so we have to look at that.
Then we know that even in our media, China has
intense influence in our movie production and things of that sort.
(01:37:04):
That's warping the minds of the American public. I think
we've talked about this once before. There is a classic
movie called Red Dawn about the Russians invading the United States. Well,
in the update of that, it was supposed to be
the Chinese invading the United States. But Beijing said, no,
you don't, and they made Hollywood change the script of
the movie so that it was the North Korean's not
(01:37:26):
the Chinese invading the United States. Look for Hollywood to
start obeying their Chinese task masters and not portraying any
Chinese as bad guys in the movie. So we have
to look at an entire thing, not just from a
political perspective, Sharon, but from a cultural perspective as well.
China has invaded the United States on the economic level,
(01:37:47):
on the cultural level, and on the political level. It's insidious.
Speaker 2 (01:37:52):
It is insidious, and we are really unaware, uninformed, unable
to combat at ourselves.
Speaker 3 (01:38:04):
You know.
Speaker 2 (01:38:04):
It seems like it's just a monstrous thing that we
need to do. However, we have this new president right
he's coming in and now we see this barrage of
stuff coming in from the Biden administration, from the White House,
(01:38:25):
burying him in things that he has to dig out of.
Now he's having to repeal this one and repeal that one.
When Biden came in, he just struck down every executive
order of Trump's on that first day. He just went
down through and struck them all down. Why wasn't there
(01:38:48):
a resounding pushback for that action. You're saying, that's what
we're that's what Trump is going to get. There's going
to be this pushback in court. They're just not going
to let him do it on day one. But it
seemed like we laid down and rolled over and said it,
you go ahead.
Speaker 3 (01:39:07):
Basic story in politics. One of the things that Democrats
are so much better than the Republicans, that is in
keeping their people in incredible positions appointed positions. You know,
a president will appoint someone at a key position. When
the president leaves, you assume that that person leaves and
the new president puts in his guide. What the Democrats
did was that they made before they leave those appointees
(01:39:29):
then go into civil service positions, something Republicans don't do
very often. And so even though you've ditched maybe the
top person whose name is on the door, all the
important people and functional positions are still the appointees of
the Democrats. One of the reasons in bureaucracy is so
heavily laden with Democrats, is that the Republicans simply didn't
(01:39:51):
follow the Republican the Democrats example, and so the president
has got to have a couple of Saturday night massacres
as they used to call it, and just get rid
wholesale of Democrats in the agencies. You might recall when
Bill Clinton took office, he fired a bunch of people
in the Justice Department, and no one said anything about it.
(01:40:13):
It was just expected, that's the way politics work. When
George Bush took over from Bill Clinton and he did
the exact same thing, the New York Times and the
Washington Post and CBS and NBC, we're all saying, this
is an act of crass politics. He's taking all these
people out. It's the Saturday night massacre. Well, I'm looking
(01:40:33):
forward to a bunch of real intense Saturday night massacres
on the part of the Trump administration. And he shouldn't
worry about the bad headlines that he gets in response
to it.
Speaker 1 (01:40:43):
All our guests is segment is our friend bank for
new show. He serves as the editor in chief of
The New York Analysis of Policy and Government. We're talking
about fighting China's unfair trade and if I could add
an influence so in our country. Hey, Frank, thank you
for holding through that break. We really do appreciate your time.
Speaker 3 (01:41:07):
Great being with you, Rick Uh, Frank, I.
Speaker 1 (01:41:09):
Want to add a couple of elements to this conversation
involving China, involving other things in the news. One of
them is TikTok. There was a study that was done,
It was actually released a while ago. It was a
study done by Rutgers University and researchers found that TikTok
(01:41:31):
significantly downplayed negative content relating to China, such as the beat,
the Tieneman Square massacre. But yet TikTok is saying, well,
this was because these accounts were faked accounts that it
really didn't doesn't show the true nature of what TikTok does.
(01:41:58):
And also, presently or very shortly, the Supreme Court might
roll on what President Trump is saying that TikTok must
be sold or it's going to be shut off in
this country. There's a big free speech debate involving on this,
(01:42:21):
and I wanted to get your take on TikTok, China
and its influence on young people in the United States.
Speaker 3 (01:42:29):
Well, let's clarify what's going on. First of all, the
president doesn't want to eliminate TikTok. He simply wants to
eliminate Chinese influence on TikTok. So we're not talking about
completely eliminating the platform. So those of you who are
TikTok fans, don't panic. You'll have TikTok, but a TikTok
that will be managed in a way that makes a
little bit more sense, that doesn't intentionally try to harm,
(01:42:52):
for example, our youth. While TikTok was telling children in
the United States to eat those little bleach pads that
are so called the Chinese version of TikTok, the one
that the Chinese people see was talking about significant educational issues,
physics and so forth. That's what the Chinese kids see,
But the United States kids are seeing will eat those
(01:43:13):
little bleach pad challenges or do stupid things. Well, not
attacking a platform that tries to harm our children is
not an active censorship, no more than telling children, you know,
don't eat poison is an active censorship. It's an act
of common sense. And I think that the concept of
(01:43:34):
having TikTok taken out of Chinese influence. Making it more logical,
making it more fair, is in no way an active censorship.
It's just an act of protecting America's children.
Speaker 1 (01:43:46):
Oh, another item involving China unrelated to the topic we
started off with, but it does have to do with influence. Frank,
there was a time, maybe about a year or two ago,
I was a very concerned about the Chinese taking foothold
of the Moon. And recently our president has come out
(01:44:08):
and said, well, we want to buy Greenland, and I thought, gee,
isn't that interesting. But then when you look further into things,
as usually happens, you find out that there is more
more to the story than what you thought. Currently in
where I'm going is currently China dominates global rare earth
(01:44:32):
production and has already threatened to restirect the export of
critical minerals and associated technologies. And what we're getting at
now is Greenland. Is one of the reasons that Donald
Trump is so interested in Greenland is can't imagine what
(01:44:56):
kind of rare earth, minerals or things like old and
oil could possibly be under the world's third largest island.
And also blunting the Chinese effect in the Arctic. And
I'm learning all this now, and gee, Frankett, there's always
(01:45:19):
more than more to this story. Wanted to get your
take on the Chinese influence in the Arctic and in Greenland.
Speaker 3 (01:45:28):
Well, I've had the opportunity to actually to spend some
time in Greenland. Actually, it's a fascinating place, and it does.
Speaker 1 (01:45:34):
You go there on your honeymoon, now, frank I always
thought you were a cold man, but please, please don't
tell me you went. They're on your honeymoon.
Speaker 3 (01:45:43):
No, actually I went there on a press juncket with
the Air Force fly and I spent some time in
both in southern Greenland and above the Arctic Circle as
well with the Air Force and actually with the Coast Guard.
People don't realize how far behind we are in terms
of Arctic competition. For example, the Chinese have forty two
(01:46:03):
military icebreakers in the Arctic. We have two, and I
think one of them is currently out of service. I
spend time on the Coastguard ship COVID north Wind, had
a chance to go around and see how badly we
were outclassed by the Russians in that area. The threat
that the United States and Canada face from Chinese and
(01:46:25):
Russian influence in the Arctic is monumental, not only in
terms of shipping lanes, but in terms of the direct
threat to the United States and the Canadian homeland. For
President Trump to finally be courageous enough despite the ridicule
in talking about buying Greenland, I think is the first
politician I've seen that really opened up the issue and
(01:46:47):
let the American public know how bad this situation is.
When you are out gunned forty two to two and
no one is talking much about that at all in
the media, almost refuses to cover it. That it it
really takes an active courage for a politician to say
this is terrible. It can't go on. The Russians consider
the Arctic practically part of their territory. Indeed, some of
(01:47:10):
their territory abuts the Arctic Circle, as does the United
States in Alaska. But there's something missing, and all that
where the devil is China get to say it's a
near Arctic nation. Well, I can read a map, and
China is no more a part of the Arctic than
perhaps Tahiti is, So it makes no sense at all.
(01:47:31):
But you know, the Chinese have every intention of encircling
the United States as much as possible. They are now
working at least temporarily with the Russians to intimidate the
United States, and doing so from the Arctic is a
very effective way of doing it. It indeed is negligent
on the part of the United States not to have
addressed this in the past, and I'm glad that President
(01:47:51):
Trump is doing it now.
Speaker 1 (01:47:54):
Frank another issue, you know, the dream, the dream of
shipping has always been the Northwest Passage. But as long
as the Arctic was so ice choked, there was never
a way. From what I'm understanding now, though, because of
global warming and climate change, which I'm a believer of,
(01:48:17):
I just don't happen to believe mankinda has anything to
do with it. They theorize that at very soon there
may actually be a Northwest Passage opening up, And again,
who controls that region? Who controls the region of the
Northwest patches? And they're actually saying that the Northwest Passage
(01:48:40):
may be even more convenient than a Panama Canal. But
when you look at when you look at the map
of what would potentially be the Northwest Passage, what you
have there is you have Greenland, you have Canada, you
have Alaska. So maybe there's more madness to the med
(01:49:02):
or more common sense to the mad scientist of Donald Trump.
When he says he wants Greenland, he wants Canada. Could
it possibly be this Northwest Passage? And also, as we've
been talking the Chinese influence in the Arctic.
Speaker 3 (01:49:21):
China has a very consistent and logical policy when it
comes to shipping lanes. China wants to control the world economy.
That is why China has made so many ridiculous claims
in the Indo Pacific region. They have no real right
to do so, but they know that so much of
the world's shipping lanes go through that part of the world. Now,
as you said, Rick, very accurately, that might also go
(01:49:44):
through the Artic in the near future. But it extends
beyond that as well. What country now controls both sides
of the Panama Canal. China has companies that control both
sides of the Panama Canal. We look at some of
the Chinese growing influence in Asia and in the Middle East.
China has influenced there as well. They're going to try
(01:50:04):
to extend an influence to the Suez Canal. China is
attempting to have a choke hold in every transshipment area
on the planet Earth. So the Arctic is just one
part of that whole strategy.
Speaker 1 (01:50:17):
Wow, Frank, you don't make me feel much better. I'll
tell you, buddy, love Youboddy. But this is very concerning
that China is. And I'll be honest with you, I'm
thinking that the endgame must be a war. Am I
thinking too far outside the box?
Speaker 3 (01:50:37):
I think if we let it go, we'll be stuck
into a corner. You know, we can be pushed to
the point where unless we've red so much that unless
we go into a shooting war won't be the only
way to fight back against Chinese influence. The point, though,
is that to do exactly what Donald Trump is doing
is to prevent us from getting backed into that corner.
(01:50:58):
So it never comes to that point. But that means
we have to do a lot starting right now, including,
by the way, rebuilding the United States Navy. China has
about three hundred and thirty five ships. We have about
two hundred and ninety. We're actually having less ships being built.
Our navy is going to start shrinking even as China
is growing. So this happened a lot during the Biden
(01:51:20):
and Obama administration really threw us for a loop. We've
got to realize the only way to prevent World War
three is to intimidate the Chinese into saying they can't
win that World War three, but we could. That means
we have to start right now, and we have to
recognize that we need to go on a full wartime
footing in the production of military and medical supplies.
Speaker 1 (01:51:45):
And Frank the other thing that really really really bothers me,
and we've discussed this, you know, future past times when
you've been with us on this show, is it's our dollars.
It's the American dollars used to build up the Chinese military,
all the crap that we buy from China, all the
(01:52:06):
things they don't buy from the United States. There's not
a real balance of payment here. And that's what they're
using to build that navy you're talking about, am I.
Speaker 3 (01:52:15):
Right, That's exactly correct. And of course, if you combine
that with the massive impact of Chinese espionage in the
United States, if you look at their new weapons systems,
well don't they seem to bear a strange resemblance to
everything the United States has? So our tax dollars, we
spend billions of dollars on research and development, and then
we find out that Chinese espionage has taken it, save
(01:52:37):
themselves billions and billions of dollars, but build the equipment
without having to spend that money for research. They just
take the finished product. The impact of Chinese espionage on
American national security cannot cannot be overstated.
Speaker 1 (01:52:54):
You know, Frank, Usually I enjoy having you on as
a guest, and I gotta be honest with you, is
this is a very very concerning conversation. But it's a
conversation that I think we must have. It's a conversations
that Americans must hear so they don't think, oh, crackpot Trump,
you know, going to buy once the by Greenland, once
(01:53:17):
the by Canada, or make Canada state at least. But
