Speaker 2 (00:16):
What I know, Mike Walls should be fires period. The
end from what we know, okay, and what we know
right now is whoops, my bad. You can't. You can't
allow stuff like this to happen. I'm still trying to

(00:36):
get my arms around it. I mean, how many of
you out there, How many of you out there have
a group chat on your phone? I got a few
of them. My daughter created famgang. That's, you know, my
entire family. I know that my daughter created. Another one

(00:57):
was like the girls club chat with my sister in
laws and their daughters. You know, you have to do
these things first and foremost. I'm an SEC registered investment advisory.
All of my texts, all of my emails have to
be checked in. Let me just tell you something. If

(01:18):
I was having a confidential conversation with a client and
maybe their family, and I included people on that chat
that weren't supposed to be there, the SEC would find
a crap out of me and I'd get sued. Yeah,

(01:40):
and I get that. I have no problem with that.
This as far as we're looking at it right now,
this is a major, major f up of monumental proportions.
First I thought that it was by design. First I
thought it was by design. I said, no way, no

(02:01):
way are they going to allow some far left wing
reporter from the Atlantic. I mean, you have to actually
add his name. But I don't know. I don't Again,
maybe I'm wrong, Maybe they maybe this was by design. Anyway,

(02:26):
neither here nor there to allow something like this to happen.
And you know Trump has come out and said, well
he's screwed up. He screwed up, but you know he's
not gonna let it happen again. He can kind of
letting it go. No, you know, Trump Trump ran on
ripping into Joe Biden and all the screw ups within
his administration and not holding anybody accountable. You can't allow

(02:52):
stuff like this to happen. Somebody needs heads need to roll.
That's just the way things have to work. People, Mike
Walls should be gone by now. But let's you know,
take that and put that aside. You actually take a
look at the conversation that took place there. It's interesting
and to the way that some of the internal dynamics

(03:15):
are taking I I was a bit critical of this
attack on the who Thy's. I was at the point
in time, nothing was going on. Nobody was attacking anybody
at that point in time, and we decided to start attacking.
And now you know, they're attacking back and going after
our air craft characters. Jade Vance was the one voice

(03:37):
out there saying, I don't I don't think we should
do this. I don't think we should do this. I
think we should wait and see here and put this off. Anyway, Anyway,
Europe is now none more upset with us, because you
know they're talking, oh United States, trying to get more

(03:59):
out of us, calling them free were calling us free loaders,
trying to extort money at us. Hey, stop, okay, stop, okay,
we pay the bills, folks. And I said this too
when I was critical of this at some point in time.
But at some point in time, you know, you got
to pay the security guards. And I mean, if you're

(04:22):
an athlete or an actress and actress and you've got
to hire your own security detail, you got to pay them.
I mean, if we're going to act as a security
detail for you know, the Red Sea and making sure
these shipping lanes are open, just saying maybe maybe maybe

(04:44):
throw us a few bucks or two. I don't think
that that's asking too much. Nextly, is one of the
things that JD said as well. You know, why is
it our I mean, our three percent of goods going
through that area are destined to the United States. It's
where it's not a big deal for US, much bigger
deal for other nations. Why don't they step up? Good point.

(05:07):
But anyway, back back to the original thing here, accountability
is you have to have it, especially when Donald Trump
again came out and was very, very critical the Biden
administration for complete utter lack of accountability. You screw up
like this, you allow the leftists to be like, see

(05:28):
see you went after Hillary and her her emails. Again.
This is gonna They're gonna be able to run with
this for period of time. Again. Flip it. Okay, flip it.
If this happened, if this happened under the Biden administration,

(05:48):
Republicans would be having a hissy fit. Okay, So everybody
out there, oh, Democrats are coming out of just nuts,
no bullshit. Okay, well it would be it would be
all over Fox News. Hannity would have a million different
people on criticize the Biden administration. If this happened under

(06:09):
his watch, you know it and I know it again. People,
it's important. It's important to be honest. It's important to
be honest when you are assessing things. And again it's
important to be an equal opportunity Basher as well watch
