Mon Episode #2172: The Drug War Becomes Global Piracy

domestically and internationally. Where will Trump attack next? Will be Iran, Mexico, Canada, maybe Greenland? And what about this what aboutism that we see his apologists putting out there? Do you understand that is nothing other than the living constitution idea of the left being adopted by the right. It's all about being

ruled by precedents instead of by written law. And then we're going to take a look at the calls from Israeli powerful people to end the First Amendment in the United States, as we're told to save it, we have to end it to save it. And we have fourth turning unrest that is accelerating even in Iran. So We're going to take a look at this and what did you notice about New Year's Eve this year? We saw something that was radically different in our family and in

friends and family across the country. Well, I'm going to begin with an op ed piece that we just put up this morning on substact my opinions about this. I called it a long title, Trump's Venezuelan Oil Heist, the logical progression of the drug war from domestic theft to global predatory and piracy and the death of law. Really, you know, it's been a long time. It's been clear for a long time that Trump's cover story about Venezuela and fentanyl was a lie. Everybody knew it. Trump knew it.

They would tell you out loud what they were really going to do, what they really wanted, regime change, the oil, all the rest of this stuff, and then they would come back to it periodically. Well, now they have come back to it again, to come back to this by

pretending that it is a law enforcement operation. Even as the Trump administration spoke about regime change and getting the wall, they would pretty periodically return to the narrative of fentanyl tracking with such bold defiance to the Constitution as well as international law about the conduct even a declared war. Why return to the drug war narrative, Well, Americans have

long been asleep over the true purpose of the drug war. Listen, it was never about ending the drug addiction of individual Americans. It was always about feeding the addiction to power of the US government. And to do that they had to sweep aside. The law is a perfect vehicle for that. And now we've seen this play out not just domestically but internationally, like Trump's phony declared emergencies to give themselves

powers of a dictator. The drug war has been serving the same purpose for government and law enforcement in general for over fifty years now. So what's new is the aspect of military's quote unquote law enforcement and global civil asset forure taking up to the level of oil tankers with millions of barrels of oil on them. This is something that was created by the drug war. It's being taken to an international level. Gone is the usual CIA

tactic of assassination. We have to pretend now that we're upholding some standard of law, as they violate every law and moral principle in this action. It's just like the Israeli guy who Shlomo is his first name. He said, we got to destroy the First Amendment in order to save it in America. Well, you try to do that and see what happens. That's one of the reasons why

there's so much blowback against Israel. Confiscating cars, homes, businesses without finding anybody guilty, without even charging them with a crime, has now gone on to the international level. We skipped the due process of deliberations and declarations about war, and we just go straight for the spoils. Our government has been operating as thieves domestically for so long, they're now

obviously extending the practice to piracy abroad. It's disheartening to see people abandon their former principles, and I'm talking about the grassroots people here and cheer the theft of oil. Commentators like the cobsc letter are so excited that we just took control of seventeen trillion dollars worth of oil, he wrote on Twitter. He said, in just twelve hours, the US has gained control of oil reserves worth more than the entire GDP of all countries in the world

except for the US and China. That's four times larger than the GDP of Japan. Most people don't realize how much the world just changed. We'll have to ask all these people at he put that or whoever it is he or shere, whoever put that tweet out, and everybody started compying it, I mean copying it verbatim. Got a tremendous amount of play, and you had a lot of maga people, a lot of people who would call themselves conservatives,

but they're not trying to conserve anything. They're not trying to conserve morality or the rule of law, any of that stuff. So just ask you who is going to profit from this valve? Who do you think We've already had a couple of dozen businessmen I'm want to talk about this have gone down to Venezuela to loot the country. These vulture capitalists will profit, but there won't be seventeen trillion dollars paid down on our thirty eight trillion dollar debt.

And think about it. You know we had When Trump ran back in twenty sixteen and he was being interviewed, he said and asked about his opposition to regime change, and he was adamant we shouldn't be doing that. He said, come on, we've got a nineteen trillion dollar deficit here in the United States. We should be taking care of things here domestically instead of getting involved in these expensive wars abroad. Well, he and Biden have doubled that nineteen

trillion dollar deficit. They don't care a debt. They don't care at all about the debt. And so, of course, as they point out, you know, seventeen trillion dollars of estimated well in the ground at today's market prices. That ignores the fact that you've got to extract that and do other things that are going to be expensive. But they said, oh, even taking half of that, you know, so we got eight and a half trillion dollars that we just took overnight. Isn't that great? We have an

America that cheers that. We have conservatives who cheer them, and it's for partisan reasons. You know that they would not be cheering it if it was the Democrats doing it, they would oppose it. We have no principles. We only have political parties left. And so when Trump ran again, it was only nineteen trillion and five years of Trump and four years of Biden. They have doubled that. This is not going to go into some imaginary sovereign wealth fund.

It will go to American oil companies. And guess what, the big businesses like that don't pay taxes. And we're going to talk about the taxes coming up. Marjorie Taylergreen wants people to go on a tax revolt. I think you should understand just how revolting this whole system is. And you should understand that they don't care if you don't pay the taxes. Oh, they'll throw you in jail, probably, but it really isn't going to put any kind of

restrictions on them. The only thing that's going to restrict them is a loss of reserve currency status, which is happening because of these types of actions by Biden and by Trump, that will stop them. The income tax is not there to fund the government, Don't be stupid. The income tax is there to defund you, to keep you poor so that you don't threaten them. That's the purpose

of the income tax, Charlie Brown. So it's not going to go into some imaginary sovereign wealth fund, and it's not even going to go to recouping the costs of this military operation. No, it's going to go into the pockets the people who are cronies and donors of Trump. It'll be a windfall profit for them, just like the

windfall profit that Trump gave Pfizer and Moderna. We paid for their production of these bioweapons, and we handed that stuff to them, and they got to keep all of the profits because it was part of their bigger agenda. Same thing is going to happen with this. Expect to see a lot of billionaires made overnight out of this type of thing, just like we saw with Pfizer and Moderna.

Trump gave them the bioweapon, he paid for it, he put it on the national credit card, while he bribed the hospitals to kill people with ventilators and call it a pandemic. And speaking of which, somebody made a perfectly time moving the financial markets just to take advantage of this, just like nine to eleven. Isn't that interesting? More shocking than Trump's action in Venezuela's reaction to this domestically, nothing shows the corruption and the moral bankruptcy of the USA

more than the I voted for this crowd. They're cheering lies, they're cheering corruption, They're totally oblivious to the precedents being set even as they come back and say, well, so and so did it, so what about it? So now we can do it right? And then it realized how that is undermining the rule of law, of the Constitution, all the rest of this stuff, which again we know that they take an oath to it and immediately break that. So this is power that they don't realize. This is

power that will be used. It will be used by people you don't like. It'll be used for purposes that you don't like, in policies that you don't like. Why are they cheering this? This is stupid as seeing the leftist cheering mom Danny when he says the era of big government is back, and they say, oh, I haven't felt this great since Obama. There's a kind of sado masochism about that, isn't it. It's like time me up and beat me with a government. I just love it when you do that and put a gag in my

mouth too, like the cutting down on free speech. But the I Maga crowd is doing the same thing. It's not just the precedent for lawlessness and chaos at home. How can the Trump administration even protest China taking Taiwan after this Venezuelan precedent, he can't. He's put a stake through the heart of international law and ethics that says large companies must countries must not unilaterally take whatever they wish. The rule of law and borders have been erased. The

new president is a prescription for war. It is for a full on melee to loot whatever you can take. When I look at this and I look at what Trump is doing, it looks to me like a riot in a city where people are setting things on fire and just grabbing everything they can get. The difference is that this is billionaires and corporations that are doing it, and Trump, of course is lighting the fire. The rule

of law on borders have been erased. The new president is a prescription for war to take whatever you want. Isn't that the problem that we had with Hitler and Tojo World War two? And you know, there was more justification for Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor than for Trump's

attack on Venezuela. We had been engaged in strangling sanctions, as joy Centi's pointed out many times when he comes on, he always likes to talk about that we had been engaged and sanctions that were strangling them, and Venezuela has

done nothing to us nothing. All the guardrails, all the restrictions on unlimited power are being removed globally from free speech and due process and individual rights, and the idea that war should only be done as a last resort, only done defensively for peace, that there need to be some guardrails so we don't have total war. Are professing Christian war. Pete, Secretary of Defense is the one who's leading the charge on all that stuff. Now they're saying, well,

the after round they found out. I gotta say, Pete, Hegseth, please cover up your tattoos and stop talking about your Christian beliefs. You are a reproach to everything that Christ stood, for everything that he taught. You have no reason to put that on your taking the name of Christ in vain. Well you know I've gone on this tie rade. Here. Let me play something for you though. That is a satire,

because I think satires are maybe even more effective. Here's a guy who put up a video talking about how he's done regime change on his next door neighbor in his neighborhood in a.

I've seen him speak Spanish. I got rid of the wife as well. I didn't really have a problem with her, but we did do a Fourth of July block party and she brought ampanadas, so better safe than sorry. I've got them at a residence in a couple towns over. I've been using his home as my own little man cave. Pretty great. Turns out he has a fantastic wine cellar

that I have tapped into extensively. Anyway, I'll be running his home until a time when I can have a safe, proper and judicious turnover to some of the guy, which probably won't be happening soon and just ends up. I planned to take over some other neighbors' homes as well. Phil across the street has a pretty cool car I'd like to be in charge of. And Alex, who lives Caddy corner from me, has a wife who's a yoga instructor.

more ships being blown up Operation Southern Spear. Isn't that great? This childish love of war that you see with mister lethality war Pete. Five Narco terrorists killed on New Year's Eve, three more on December thirtieth, isn't that great? And you knows this stuff rolled out. You saw the headlines. That's Breibart's headline before the invasion started. When the invasion started. This is from Info Wars. I'll read it to you,

Saturday emergency broadcast. Powerfully executed. Blitzkrieg destroyed Venezuela's forces in minutes, clearing the way for Delta Force to capture the Venezuela and Dictator Maduro. You know, Alex, you wonder why they called Trump a Nazi. That's because you're selling who was it that invaded other countries because they felt like they had a need? Who was it that did blitzkrieg? You

guys are owning yourselves. It makes me disgusted that I ever worked for that shill of an organization and that guy. When I see that type of thing, I would have never worked for a company that did that kind of trash. And that's what it is. It's trash. Alex, you should be ashamed of yourself for pushing wars. When I went to work for you, you were pushing against wars. You've done a complete You become a cheerleader for the military industrial Complex,

you become a disinformation agent for the CIA. It's disgusting to see what you have become. As a matter of fact, I'll just put this here. I was going to play it later on, but I want to put this here. You know, what will you be remembered for? Somebody put up think about how you want to be remembered. It's very creepy. This is frozen stuff dead, Charlie Kirk, cobwebs, frozen dead, Laura Lomer, cobwebs for there's Alex same thing, cobwebs in the mouth. All the rest of this stuff.

Is this how you want to be remembered. There's Elon Musk with this Nazi salute. Of course, the technocracy is not simply Nazi stuff. And here's Joe Rogan and Donald Trump covered with cobwebs, frozen dead, and Tucker Carlson, all these people. Ah, And there he is mister Prosperity Gospel himself, Copeland and Erica Kirk, Grifters taking the name of Christ in vain. And I don't know who these people are, but I guess the January the six Rioters. So yeah,

I think about that. You know, we're just passing through this life. None of us have that much time left. A decade, two decades, three decades, whatever, that's not much time anyway. This is the kind of garbage these people cheering blitzkrieg war, cheering invasion. And it's also cool because look at our elite forces. You know, if you have that kind of power and you use it in an evil way, that's nothing to cheer about. I'm not cheering Delta Force with all this stuff. It's disgusting. I wish

we didn't have that power. Quite frankly, it makes us all left less safe. So when you look at this, the US Southern Command, this is Breitbarton revealed on Wednesday, two different military operations against drug trafficking December thirtieth to thirty first. It's part of Operation Southern Spear, and we've got doctor Force out there and these people are all regurgitating. Oh look at the weapons they use. Look at how

efficient this was, and all the rest of this stuff. Cheerleaders, cheerleaders, cheer the war, Trump and warpete I think maybe somebody in the future how to get rid of them without due process. Of course, that's all about it's now, why doesn't that happen, Not because they don't deserve it, but because they don't. People don't have the force, and we're now going to live in a world where there is no rule of force, no right or wrong. It's just

rule by might. That's what these people represent, no principles whatsoever except I want it. I'm going to take it. I mean, that's what Trump is saying about Greenland. Right. So again, three narco terrorists a Bridebard again aboard the first vessel killed in the first engagement. The remaining Narco terrorists have been in the other two vessels, jumping overboard, distancing themselves before follow on engagements on their respective vessels.

In other words, we just keep going until we kill everybody, no quarter given. We become Santa Ana. That's what we've become. It's disgusting. I may not be able to move to France, but to stop call myself an American after what America has become. It's just I'm disgusted with this, and I'm disgusted with the people who call themselves conservatives, who cheer

this stuff. Operations announced by Southern Come over the past hours reportedly brings a total of known narco trafficking vessels struck in international waters through thirty five and the number of people killed to one hundred and fifteen. And they don't have a problem with that at all. They labeled these people narco terrasts. Let me tell you how the

real narco terrists are the CIA. It's the deep state, the CIA that Trump is serving, that Biden is serving, that Alex Jones is serving, that bright Bart is serving. That's the narco terrorist organization out there, the deep state. They're cheerleading the deep state that wants perpetual war. That's what's really going on. So then they went from Operation Southern Spear to Operation Absolute Resolve. Grow up, Pete or else, go back to your house and play with ten soldiers

on your desk. Trump telegraphed his plans for months, yet when it happened, Washington and Caracas were stunned. So, as a Wall Street journal I don't think at all we were stunned. I mean I was surprised that they didn't kill Maduro because that's really what the narco terrorists the CIA typically do when they overthrow a government. Why didn't

they kill him? I mean, they even if this is supposedly some kind of a law enforcement action, they're just bragging about how they killed one hundred and fifteen people without any due process because they knew they were guilty. Just you know, from a distance you could tell it. So why didn't they kill Maduro? That's the real question. And perhaps it was because Trump wanted to parade him around. Put this picture out on a truth social and of

course even stranger. Trump put him in a van in New York City and they drove around with the doors open to show everybody this is what it looks like. They literally did a parade. This is like a Roman Caesar. It goes out and conquers and overthrows other countries and then brings back the leaders and parades them around. This is the twenty first century, twenty first century equivalent of

a Roman triumph parade. And of course, as this is all happening, Trump is building a massive monument to himself, like the Arc of the Triumph in France. Many people calling it the Arch of Trump, which is really what it is. So does that make you feel safe? Is that a win for Team America. It's pathetic, it's foolish. It is utterly ignorant about the precedents and the implications for the future. But of course this is also one

aspect of this that James Carvill pointed out. Because James Carvel would know he was right there with Clinton when Clinton did his wag the dog or distract attention away from his sexual predations, even its ken Starr turned the spotlight away from the sexual predations and talked about a consensual relationship. He made it about Clinton being embarrassed to tell the truth about that and committing perjury under oath.

It was a technicality. He completely can star completely overlooked the very credible allegations from Juanita Broderick and many others about sexual assault and rape, and Hillary Clinton called them bimbos and trailer trash. Remember that that's kind of the same type of thing that we're seeing now here, isn't it. It's kind of interesting. I'm sure it's just a coincidence. Don't you think that a key Epstein deadline arrived just as Trump got everybody to look at what was happening

in Venezuela. I'm sure it's just a coincidence, like it was with Bill Clinton. James Carvill knows it's not a coincidence because he was probably orchestrating this type of stuff inside the Clinton administration. He kept saying, people don't camp about that, they don't care about they don't care about Monica Lewinsky. They're going to vote the pocketbooks, right, So, yeah, we just got to have good economy and they don't care about this kind of stuff. But of course we

can distract them with the war. So Trump invaded a sovereign nation and kidnapped his leaders just as an inconvenient deadline was looming for the Justice Department to explain its controversial Epstein reactions. While the deadline came and went last month, the Trump administration has faced serious questions regarding its decisions about what to redact. And of course, as Rocanna and Thomas Massy appointing out, they said on Friday they would

be bypassing. The Department of Justice demanded all files be made public by asking the Southern District Court of New York to appoint a special master to ensure that all the documents are released. They're also seeking to hold Pambondi in contempt of Congress, which would result in her being fined for every day that the Department of Justice fails to release the files in their entirety. They estimate that they won't finish reviewing the remaining files until at least

January the twentieth. They wrote on social media, the Department of Justice. Did we have lawyers working around the clock to review and make the legally required redactions to protect Trump. I'm sorry victims. Yes, and we will release the documents as soon as possible. As a matter of fact, she said that they've got four hundred lawyers helping with it. You know what you get with four hundred lawyers eight hundred opinions at least, it's amazing that they could get

anything done. But anyway, this is another aspect of what's going on, and it's important that we not forget the corruption of Trump because look, it's these intelligence agencies like the CIA, like them aside that're running the blackmail operations of Jeffrey Epstein to get what they want out of the politicians. I mean, they offer them both a carrot and a stick. You do what we want and we'll give you money. If you do what we don't want, you'll not only not get the money, but we'll show

everybody these videos that we've got of you. That's the reality of how they get their way. It's no mystery. They don't want you to see that. So meanwhile, you've got twenty US investors they call them. That says business insider already planning a trip to Venezuela in March. The vulture capitalists. Yes, it is true, isn't it. The love of money is the root of all evil, and it

is also the root of all wars as well. And when you go back and you look at the bankers, right, this has been around forever, going back to the Civil War, for example, it was commonly said rich Man's war, poor man's fight. Absolutely was true. Rockefeller paid his way out of that war, and he used it to begin to set up a monopoly on the refineries up in Pennsylvania, which at the point in time was the only source

of petroleum that anybody knew anything about. And they needed that because they had lost access to turpentine from the south because of the war. And so Smedley Butler knew that. You know, now it's oil. When he was around a century ago, it was about fruit companies, but now it's about oil. But it wasn't about fruit companies, it wasn't about well, it was about bankers and money. Ultimately, that's what it really is always about. So investors are a

eyeing financial opportunities in Venezuela. How long before you have Jared and his friends go sniffing around. Jared Kushner and his friends. But this one guy, Charles Myers. It's quoted by Business Insider say. He's chairman of the political risk advisory firm Signum Global Advisors and former vice chairman of Evercore. He said, I think the centerpiece of Venezuela's success looking out twelve months or even twenty four months is foreign investment.

And a big part of the Venezuelan story starting today is foreign investment, especially in oil. This guy's are real genius, isn't he. They're going to leverage their vast wealth to go in and take over everything, and it is a leverage. I mean, they're going to get thousands of times of their money back off of this stuff. But look, it really is about war for oil for money Americans.

Discussed with what I see. People are seeing this coming, especially very smart investors, and many of them actually bought bonds and anticipation of this, said Myers. Well again, play it like nine to eleven. So Madera is going to be indicted in the US after the capture and after Trump's fifty million dollar bounty on him. That's why he's

in the Southern District of New York. The charges were filed there, and as one conservative influencer pointed out, said, when La La Harris pushed back against this and called it criminal, and she's right about that of all things, but she's only saying it because of partisan reasons. But he came back and said, you don't even know what happened in your own regime. Yes, she doesn't because it wasn't They weren't ruling it. She wasn't in charge. Biden

wasn't in charge. Guess what, same people were in charge then that are in charge now and it really hasn't changed. He said, you put a bounty on his head as well, So you're saying that he was you wanted him arrested. Well, it's a big difference between putting a bounty on somebody's head, and there's a difference between invading another country and bombing civilians in order to do an extraction of an individual, rather than extradition when you can't get it from a

head of state. So this is where all the maga of what about ism is so deadly to the rule of law. Well, okay, so Biden did it, so we can do it. No discussion about what the law says, no debate about whether the allegations are real or not, no due process about any of that. And I'm not taking Aduro's side. I'm not somebody I care anything about one way or the other. I'm just what I care about is due process. I care about us and our government coming a gang of thugs, not becoming the biggest

mafia in history. Well, the Trump administration, as folks, is organized crime, is racketeering and corrupt organization. That's what it is. Trump's illegal actions are people are complacent about that. So again, she doesn't know what's going on. Biden didn't know what's going on. The country's being run by the deep state. And you've now got the conservatives cheering the deep state. You've got the news media outlets like breitbarton info wars

cheering the deep state, cheering the deep states wars. They're not necessary. Venezuelan president is going to stand trial in the US. Is Trump captures the leader and his wife after explosions rock the capital. This is Daily Mail headline. So, yeah, we take the president and we do the due process. Later, we have the war, and we don't bother with due process at all about that. So this is done as law enforcement. We don't care about the law. Again, the

tortured logic of this illegal war. Trump says that he warned Maduro to surrender. Hey, I told him to get out. He didn't listen to me, you know, You guys need to take my threats seriously because I'm a mafia leader. Well, you know, I don't agree with John Stewart on politics, but he nailed this war thing better than anybody in MAGA did. But as well go, we're giving them full opportunity to do it the easy way, and when it doesn't work, we'll do it the hard way.

warned them, you have to do what I say. I'm going to come in there and we have weapons of mass destructure. Remember that whole why And of course Trump, when you was running, told everybody said that was a lie. He was the first one of these candidates to come out and say we were lied into the Iraq war. Everybody knew it at that point in time, but he was the first one to say it. And then what

does he do. He takes the woman who produced the lies using torture and then covered up the torture and sold those lies to administration in order in the public, in order to have the war. Gena Haspital. He put her in charge of the CIA his entire time. I mean, she's technically number two under Pompeo, but you know Pompeio is basically a figurehead. And then he promoted her in

the second half of his administration to CIA head. He owned all that, he told us that she lied us into a war, and then he makes her the head of the CIA. Trump said that Maduro was in a house that was more like a fortress than a house. Does Trump live in a place that's more like a fortress in the house? I mean, what about mar Lago. You don't think that he's got a safe room in Marlago. I wonder how many safe rooms he's got in Marlago. What about the White House? Is it a fortress? This

is what I said. This is absolutely amazing. You know that this shows that Maduro is a crook because he's living in a fortified house with guards and a steel door. Trump says it had steel doors, what they call a safety space, solid steel all around, and as if he doesn't have that orders of magnitude more. He was trying to get into the room, but he got bum rushed so fast that he didn't get into it. But he

said it didn't matter if he did. The guys that were there had blow torches on them and special steel cutting equipment. They could have broken through the safe room. So it's just amazing, amazing thing, amazing job that these people did. Isn't that great? You know? Yeah, when you have that kind of force at your fingertips, you have to be held to a higher standard. So I'm just going to say the way this guy's going to war

with everybody globally. Trump better make sure that he's got really good doors in that bunker that he's building that he calls the ballroom, is a ballroom bunker with all the wars that he's starting. He says he watched the whole thing from his home in mar Lago. He said it was like watching a TV show. Yeah, I know, I've seen the reruns over and over again. I've seen this movie before. Bondi said they will soon face the full wrath of American justice on American soil and American courts. Well,

your day's coming to Bondy. You better hope that Trump's got a primptive pardon for you, and you better hope it sticks. The PSA for here's Vance saying, here's a PSA for everyone saying that this was illegal. Maduro had multiple indictments in the US for narco terrorism. Oh okay, so if you got an indictment against somebody and abstentia, then that's a green light to invade a country. That is the absurdity that's being sold by J. D. Vance.

It's also the absurdity that's been brought into by Mike Lee, who likes to describe himself as somebody who follows the rule of law and the Constitution. He got into a lot of trouble for questioning Trump on this. He got ratioed on Twitter, and I'll talk about that in just

a moment here. But anyway, this is the war on drugs, the logical progression, as I said at the beginning of this cancer that has called the War on drugs, that has metastasized throughout every police department in our country, and now it is moving to the international level. That's not a surprise because the War on drugs was not an invention of that despot Richard Nixon. Oh approgement does it? It's not illegal, right. It was created by the United Nations and they were the ones to cry the first

and the loudest about the decriminalization of medical marijuana. It is a UN agenda, and the Republicans love this UN agenda. As I said before, it was never about individual addiction to drugs. It was about the government's addiction to power and how they had to remove the rule of law in order to be able to satisfy that addiction. So Warpete tweeting out he left around and found out, Yeah, good for you. Spoken like a thug that you are. Trump says, we will run Venezuela. Okay, well yeah, Trump

has tried to run America as well. You know, he's taking over companies, and he's wants to run the companies. He's not just like this is a failing company. That's important. Here's some money, you guys, try to get this thing together.

it's going to be Marco Rubio. Little Marco is going to run Venezuela. He may deliberately run it into the ground, just because he's got an axe, a chip on his shoulder and an axe to grind. He doesn't like Cuba. He's trying to run Cuba into the ground. His family migrated from Cuba, so he really has been aching to get back at Cuba for the longest time. Well, you know, Trump has bankrupt in half a dozen casinos. Maybe we'll see how many countries he can bankrupt, not just the US,

but maybe he can also bankrupt in as well. We'll see again somebody who is the king of debt, the king of bankruptcy. Trump doesn't know anything about running anything. He's a lucky loser. As the book pointed out, he comes in with a big stash of cash and he doesn't know how to operate it now. But closing in. We'll close in in the next year or two on forty trillion dollars. Yeah, that's Trump. It was nineteen when he was running for president. No service members or military

equipment will lost, isn't that great? Well, it is great. I'm glad to see that no Americans were killed. But they don't care if Venezuela and civilians are killed. That doesn't matter, right, not their calculation. That's one of the first issues that shows you how we have lost our moral compass. We're going to stay in Venezuela until such time as a proper transition can take place. We're going to do nation building and a little bit of nation

looting as we go along. And right away he comes out and trashes the woman who was the leader of the opposition, the one who won the Nobel Prize for Peace over him. He trashes her, and he makes overtures to the vice president of Venezuela, who is a hardcore socialist and Zionist. And that was one of the things that was unforgivable for Maduro. He was anti Israel, he was pro Iran in terms of his rhetoric. He didn't really have much that he could do about it, but

he had to be taken out. So Trump repeatd the claim that Venezuelan seized and stole American Well, you know, that was America's oil in the ground that was there. Yeah, that's right. Trump says, what happened to Maduro can happen to others in Venezuela. It can happen to other countries as well. That's why I call him precedent Trump. He says he's not afraid to deploy troops to Venezuela if needed. Well, finally, the Senate may have something to say about that. They're

talking about stopping him from sending any more troops. But there's going to be a lot of troops that are going to be necessary to be sent to Venezuela. If you look at any at the past, it'd be a shame, he says. If anything were to happen to Venezuela, though, you just do what I say, right, just like a mafia boss. Nice country you got there, a lot of oil you got. It'd be a shame if anything were

to happen to that. Yeah, well, you know, it wasn't that long ago that Tulsea Gabbard was only two months ago. She said this about regime change.

The results trillions spent, countless lives lost, and in many cases, a creation of greater security threats. The rise of islamusts terrorist groups like ISIS. President Trump was elected by the American people to put an end to this. From day one, he has showed a very different way to conduct foreign.

we're going to be flooded with Venezuelan immigrants. And now Christineome, head of ICE, is actually ICE's department underneath her, but now she's cheering this.

integrity back to them. The decisions are made in conjunction with the State Department, with the White House, and then we at the Homeland Security, implement them and make sure that they are followed through. So every individual that was under TPS has the opportunity to apply for refugee status and that evaluation will forward. But we need to make sure that our programs actually mean something and that we're following the law. And that's how that decision with TPS was made.

just blood, it's not just treasure. It's also immigration. And that's what we get out of all this, Right, we get a flood of Venezuelan immigrants just get a pass to come in, just like under Biden. Isn't that interesting? So but the thing that we have to focus on, as Trump is saying, just focus on the fact this is one of the most stunning, effective and powerful displays of the American military. Yeah, think of it as a

fireworks display. So it was a culmination of months of planning and rehearsal, an operation of frankly, only the military could have undertaken, said the Chair of the Joint chiefs of Staff, General Kin. It's something that they have now unleashed as a new Pandora's box of chaos, and they're going to reap the whirlwind with China and just watch

and see what happens with this. So as all this is happening, or Pete says, well, they left around and found out, and Trump says, these other people down there in Latin America they need to watch their ass. That's what he had to say. These guys are crude thugs, they're mafia, they're rico kind of guys. Finally, the secondary state, Marco Rubio appeared to directly threaten the leaders of Cuba. If I were in power in Cuba, I'd be very worried. Right now, He's not very worried about being in power

in Venezuela. As many people pointing, it's going to be the Viceroy of Venezuela. Kind of alliteration that you know, at least it sounds impressive. Whether it is or not, it just means he's going to govern it. You think he's up to the task. He's already got a lot of different hats that he's wearing. He's already a Secretary of State and other powers that we haven't seen since Richard Nixon gave that kind of authority to Henry Kissinger. So now he gets to rule Venezuela as well. And

again you keep hearing this rhetoric. Just as John Stewart point out, he didn't put this one in. They love to talk about shock and awe. Shock and awe, that's what it's all really about, right, just recycled sound bites and hey, you know we've got the power, we should use it to steal. Jonathan Turley said this operation will be justified as executing a criminal warrant and responding to an international drug cartel, very similar legal framework to the

one used against Noriega in nineteen eighty nine. There is precedent for supporting this, he says, well, you know what George H. W. Bush did when he went after Noriega was criminal, and the Panama invasion was criminal. There was an excellent documentary about that. It was narrated by Elizabeth Montgomery.

I remember we had it in our video store and I pushed it everybody could You should go back and take a look at that precedent that was there, and you should understand that strongman Noriega, that's what George H. W. Bush always called him, strong man, strongman that and wouldn't call him the president. They have to pretend that this person is not the legitimate leader of the country. And that's the same pretense that you see from Marco Rubio now.

And the reality is is that Noriega was running drugs with the CIA, with the biggest narco terrorist gang in the world, the CIA, until he decided that he was big enough that he would break off from them and go his own way. That's why he had to be taken out. It was illegal, But who cares. We now have a precedent, and I'm surprised that Jonathan Turley, a lawyer, can't see this, As I said at the top of the hour, when you look at what all this precedent

stuff is and all this well what about this? You know, look, Biden did this or George H. W. Bush did it. There's never any question about whether or not it was illegal when they got away with it. You know, it's just like, well, wait, he stole that, I can steal it too if I don't. You know, if I don't steal it, somebody else will. But somebody else's are stolen some stuff like that, So now I get to do

it without any penalty. When you start governing by precedents and by emergencies and executive orders and all the rest of this stuff, that is a dictatorship, folks. That gets us away from the rule of law. And so if you're going to say, well, we're we can do this even though it's against the law. We can do it because we had a former Republican president who did it, or we have a Democrat president who did it. That

is the path to ruin to lawlessness. Venezuela is our freedom has arrived, said Maria Karina Machado in a post, and we are ready for the reconstruction of our nation. Except that she was immediately dissed by Trump. And I do think that I wasn't the only one to say, and I saw somebody else say it after I said it first. I had not seen what they said, but they came the same conclusion. Independently. So I'm saying that part of this is Trump's being a sore loser about

the Nobel Prize. He's not going to put the lady that he lost the Nobel Prize to in charge of Venezuela when he wanted it. So again, they put this guy on board the ew Rejima Maduro and they take his picture handcuffs and blindfolds. You know, I look at that and I think, you know, Americans and my parents generation fought and died for liberty for America. So this mafia don Trump can rule like a cartel warlord. I'm absolutely disgusted with this country, with this government, with this military,

and the people who make excuses for it. Critics say the operation goes against Trump's campaign promise to end forever wars and regime change policies, as this article on zero Hedge says, Libertarians will probably be furious. Yeah, yeah, anybody who cares about the rule of law and liberty should be furious. And yet pretty much crickets out there, however,

says Zero Edge. From Trump's perspective, doing a hostile communist regime that is a key ally of China and Russia in the Western hemisphere fits directly into the administration's America First policy, not at all. As a matter of fact, he doesn't want the woman who beat him for the Nobel Peace Prize that he wanted. Instead, what he's doing is he's taking this really hardcore communist who is the vice president and putting her in charge. All these people in MAGA who are saying, well, I had to get

rid of these people because they're communists. They really don't know what they're talking about. Anybody who cares about the rule of law, not just libertarians, but if you care for liberty and peace especially, you should be furious. But that's not what Breitbart Info wars are apparently WorldNetDaily, any of these Trump cheerleaders of war, maybe not even zero Hedge. That's not really what they care about. They just want central planning and they don't mind the corruption that comes

with it. So it appeared that I Forever wore is not in the cards with Maduro in custody, You don't think so, you know what America has been very good at. And I remember when the Iraq War was being debated. I remember the phrase very clearly from National Review. They said at the time, the US can and should reduce

the Iraqi military to twisted metal. I think that was during the first Gulf War because I think it was William F. Buckley, and I don't know if he was alive at the second one or not, but that really stuck with me, especially as we watched this thing unfold. Yes, the US military is very good at reducing other militaries to twisted metal. What they're really poor at is occupying the country. What they're really poor at is building and looting the other countries. So they're really poor at its

asymmetric warfare. We have failed in that repeatedly, and so we love to brag about our complex weapon systems that can take out their weapon systems, but over and over again we see that as a pyrrhic victory. Venezuela is not the only country south of the border that protects the activities of drug cartels, said Trump. So now you know we can put some other ones on the list. Is this starting to sound like what Wesley Clark said

about the Middle East? You know, we got a list of seven different countries and they're just going down the list. This is a prescription, folks, for endless war. One after the other. I think twenty twenty six is going to be a year of war, and I would not be surprised to see China. They're going through a lot of drills, a lot of build up for innovasion of Taiwan, and I would not be surprised at all to see them do that. So again, the question is a zero heade writs.

Venezuela is not the only country south of the border that protects the activities of drug cartels. Are you going to still try to sell that lie that this is about drugs? Come on, stop circling back to that lie, zero hedge. You should be better than this. I know they have a lot of different people write articles and say you get a lot of different angles from it, but some of them are really stupid and dishonest. The Democrats will seize on every opportunity to label Trump as

a warmonger. Well, yeah, because he is. You know, it is a partisan thing. They would not call their own people warmongers. But they will tell you the truth about Trump. And I've said this about the form press as well. You know, I like to read art because RT will tell you the truth about America, but they'll lie about Russia and the US press will lie about America, but they'll tell you the truth about Russia, and vice versa. Well, the same thing is true of the two political parties.

Many conservatives are taking a f Venezuela approach and argue that it is high time something was done about an abusive, corrupt communist enclave in America's backyard. What Trump is doing is putting one of these abusive corrupt communists and party in power. Right, and you just do what I tell you to do. You better do it. So. Pete Heegsas says that the US intervention in Venezuela is the exact

opposite of Iraq. Maybe what he means is that instead of nation building, we're going to be involved in nation looting. That would be the exact opposite. We spent decades and decades and purchased in blood and got nothing economically in return. Trump is now going to flip the script, says he say, So now we're going to go in, We're I take the oil, We're going to loot the country. Is that any better? And who gets that money? As I said before, it's not going to be even used to pay down

the debt. It's not going to be used to pay for the missiles and the bombs. And that's not even calculating lives that are lost on both sides. Who gets this money? Who gets this money? Well, as I point out Maria Salazar, so the old company is going to make trillions of dollars off of this stuff. That's right. It'll be money for the big oil, would be money for big pharma. And you and I get the credit card bill, the national debt if we don't get killed.

Hexcess said that through strategic action, the US can ensure that has access to additional wealth and resources, enabling a country to unleash that without having to spend American blood. Yeah, warpeak goes full pirate, full theft. And again the love of money, the love of the wealth that is in Venezuela that these communists can't extract. Why because they are trying to do central planning. But of course Trump's not

going to learning lessons about failures of central planning. Instead, they're going to cover it up by going down and just stealing stuff from other people. Except it's not going to be stolen to pay down the debt. It'll be given to the oil companies. So Hegsas says the Hemisphere will benefit from Trump's bold action. Let me tell you

what I think is a likely scenario to happen. Now, we're not going to see the Venezuelan military sale into Manhattan, you know, like the mouse that re warded ers that we're not going to see that. As a matter of fact, when we look at the way these wars are going to fold, here's my opinion, here's what I see happening with it. I don't think that if things get really bad and Russia wants to attack US or China wants to attack US. I mean, there could be a direct

confrontation over Taiwan if we're stupid enough. But the way it's really going to unfold is going to be done in a way that gives them plausible deniability. Russia and China even do not want to directly confront the United States with launching a missile, a nuclear missile. Only North Korea is crazy enough to do that. They don't really have the technology. But China and Russia don't want to do that. They would much rather use plausible deniability and

attack our infrastructure. Just take a look at what's going on with Ukraine and Russia. Is Russia unleashing nuclear bombs. No, they don't want to invite a nuclear war. They're restraining that. Instead. What they're doing is they're launching drone attacks and sabotage acts on each other's infrastructure. You don't think that's going to happen here. If Russia and China really want to start something against us, they will engage in that type

of thing. And guess who. They will use drug carts in Venezuela and Mexico to do that type of operation. And we've already seen the drug cartels in Mexico go after law enforcement, go after politicians, assassinate them, and attack them.

If that same thing were to happen here, whether it was the actual cartel doing it or whether it was a false flag by our own government claiming that it was a cartel doing it, that will be the excuse that the Trump administration will use to enact actual martial law. And I believe that this rollout of the police is being done in a confrontational way as preparation for that.

As I said before, if Trump wants to use a lot of force to deport people, he could have easily started in the states that are going to be friendly to that. Instead, he decided that he wanted the conflict more than he wanted the deportation. Go to Chicago, and he goes to New York, and he goes to Washington, DC because he thrives on conflict. This is the WWE presidency. And completely ignores the Smalians in Minnesota, which he knew

about that's been around since his first term. Is widely understood that these people are laundering and stealing money for El Shabab, but he doesn't do anything about that in Minneapolis or Minnesota. Instead, he wants the conflict. What he wants is the military's police, and he wants the military ass police. And this is what Obama was doing. And when I was at Info Wars, we went to a great deal of effort to try to expose that to people.

You know, Biggs and I risked a lot to go into that secure area within a military base at Fort Hill and I forget what they've called it now, had to rename it because it was named after a Confederate general forty eight Hill, and there was an asymmetric warfare base that was there. We went in there, we filmed it. Alex was not happy with that. I got to tell you he did everything he could to deep sixth that

and he never showed it again. But we broadcast live for a couple of hours there before we got arrested, and we got arrested because he demanded that we go back. I mean, I knew we were going to get in some hot water. That's why we left. I got Bigs to give me the cards, and we went to a mailbox, mailbox, et cetera type of place, and I mailed it to my family. And because I figured we're going to be

stopped at the airport before we got there. But Alex called back and demanded that we go back and take pictures at the entrance of ap Hill. Of course, immediately got arrested. We both knew that was going to happen. But anyway, so when we look at this, Trump is avoided the congressional approval from Duro's capture. Of course he has. It raises constitutional concerns. Most Republicans, however, have shared the action. Let me just say this, he doesn't want to have

congressional approval for Maduro's capture. Why he doesn't want to scrutiny It's the same thing that you see with the climate people, you know, Michael Mann and others don't want you to see my data. I want you to follow my conclusions and enact policy based on my conclusion, but you can't examine the data. Same thing was true of the COVID so called pandemic. Don't want you to see the data on that. Don't should see the data on the vaccines. Just trust me, it's safe and effective. Don't

look at that. We're not going to show that to you. And so this is always the same thing. When people are afraid to show you the data, when they are afraid to make the case for what they want to do, when they're afraid to have debates and deliberations about wars, you know, it's a dirty lie. It's always in the cards. What this is ultimately about. Well, Mike Lee showed himself

to be completely spineless sycophant. As a matter of fact, what he put out was first, he put out, I look forward to learning what, if anything, might constitutionally justify this action in the absence of a declaration of war or authorization for the use of military force. He put out, well, one hour later, he was begging, essentially begging for forgiveness. He got so heavily criticized and ratioed on social media

over that initial post, which was true. That he comes back and says, well, I just got off the phone Marco Rubio. He informed me that Maduro has been arrested by US personnel to stand trial on criminal charges in the US, and that the kinetic action, what he means is dropping bombs on civilians. That's kinetic action that we saw tonight was deployed to protect and defend those execu shooting the arrest warrant. Now, stop and think about the

absurdity of that. So we're doing a law enforcement operation, and so, uh, there's a house that's got some drug dealers and they'll say they've got a meth lab or something like breaking bad or something. So law enforcement is going to go in and it's going to be necessary for them to bomb the houses in the neighborhood to get this one. That is a meth lab. That's law enforcement. That's law enforcement. Mike Lee, are you kidding me? You know what this is, you spineless coward. But he got

ratioed even on that. The comments under that were I told you this, if we were listening. He goes, well, and he even came back to that. He says, you're just some anonymous poster on Twitter. I'm going to the Secretary of State to know what this is. And he was making apologies and all the rest of stuff about having questioned Trump's unconstitutional war. He pretends that bombing the city is okay because it is in support of Trump's kidnapping of a foreign leader. Really, that's what we're talking

about here. And you know, it's interesting if you go back and look at what the extradition process is, the extradition laws when you charge somebody with something, and we can see this as it's played out with net Yahoo. The bottom line is this is not a war. We never had a decoration. We've ignored the rules of war as we pretend that it's a war at sea. This is not about fentanyl, it's not about cocaine. And it doesn't matter if Biden and Trump had a bounty on Maduro.

This is not a legal extradition. International law and extradition is primarily governed by bilateral and multilateral treaties between countries. There is no universal customary international while requiring states to extradite individuals, and so what this was was an act of war. We don't have an extradition treaty with them, and of course you're not going to extradite the leader

of a country. Ever, they say they typically follow the UN Nations Model Treaty on Extradition of two thousand and four. It is a non binding framework to guide states and drafting treaties or defining extradition as a surrender of a person who sought for prosecution and punishment of an extradition offense. And so the reality is is that, first of all, usually extradition is recognized only if there is dual criminality, If what the person is doing is a crime in

that country as well as in our country. The alleged act must be punishable as a crime in both three questing and requested states, often with a minimum penalty threshold such as a year of imprisonment. Here, anybody talk about that and about what Maduro was actually charged with. I'll get to that in a minute, but it's not really anything that is that outrageous. As a matter of fact, when you look at the people that they have summarily

executed in these boats. The Department of Justice routinely doesn't even bother to charge couriers of cocaine, and that's really what we're talking about there. So ground's refusal are things like terrorism or violence against heads of state. Those are the exceptions for that. And when the United Person is a high ranking official of a foreign country, such as a head of state or a government minister, there's additional

layers of customary handshaking that goes on irving. Heads of state enjoy absolute personal immunity and under customary international law, which generally protects them from arrest, prosecution, and extradition by foreign states while in office, regardless of the nature of the alleged crimes. This immunity stems from principles of state sovereignty and non interference within a state from another state. And the issue is here it extends to acts performed

in both official and private capacities. That's one of the reasons why you see that Trump's hero do Terte in the Philippines, who decided that he was going to just execute people that he thought had committed crimes, drug crimes. That's why they arrested him, put him in an international criminal court after he left office. That's typically what you see, but this is also the reason why Rubio continues to pretend that Maduro is not president. Oh, he wasn't elected president.

He's not president. He's just a usurper. He's sitting there, he's not really the president. I just have to ask this, what would Trump an a Zionist to support net Yahoo say? What would they say if net Yahoo were assuming that people could do it? If net Yahoo were kidnapped, Let's say he's on a foreign trip or something. What would they say if net Yahoo was arrested? Because he does have the International Criminal Court has put out a warrant for his arrest. Now that is not a government entity.

That is, it's an international tribunal. It's not a national court. But the International Criminal Court has an arrest warrant out for net Yahoo charging him with war crimes, including starvation as it's a method of warfare, and intentionally directing attacks against civilians. So would Trump and Warpete be in favor of somebody going and getting Netnaho. As a matter of fact, there is a country that has charged him with crimes

as well. In November. This last November, Turkey issued a national rest warrant against Netnahu for alleged genocide and crimes against humanity and Gaza along with other senior Israeli officials. So if allegations of something are sufficient, and if you can go get anybody that your alleged has created a crime, including heads of state, you can kidnap them. What is the precedent that is being set here. That's something we should all think about. Well, I want to thank Star Barkley.

Thank you for the tip. I appreciate that. If you're right, So just a tip to start off the new year with both feet on the ground, not right or left. Thank you, Thank you very much. I appreciate that. Flump seventy six. Thank you for the tips. As politicians get to rob the treasury blind and then just evade, invade other nations to get back on track, rents and repeat, I agree, except I don't think that this is going

to get us back on track. I think all this excitement by the MAGA influencers over this and being picked up by the rank and file, Oh look, you know we just made seventeen trolly. We're on the road to paying off our debt. No, I don't think a penny of that's going to go. Good luck and getting taxes from the old corporations that are going to get this stuff handed to them. We all know how that works. Guard Goldsmith lebody conspiracy. Good to see their guard happy

New Year. We are not individuals to them. We're not souls to them. We're nothing more than building blocks for their greater good, the pieces of their pyramid. That's right. We are livestock. Henry Kissinger has said as much about the military. Even Happa Power. Venezuela is free to have gay pride parade parties, now, that's right. That's one of the things that many people pointed out is that he criticized him for being a communist. And yeah, he gets a zero on economics, he gets a zero on most

liberty issues. But he also was standing in the ground against the LGBT lobby, stood ground against child mutilation and sterilization and things like that. DA thank you for the tip, says David. Tell me again how Trump is a Christian? Talking like that, MAGA won't believe anything. Well, the Trump, I don't know that he's actually said that he's a Christian. Pete hegseth. I mean he says he's a Christian, he's

got it tattooed all over his arms and anything. Let me just say, you know, he's going to Doug Wilson's church plant there in Washington, d C. Doug, you need to do some church discipline on this guy. You need to start talking to him about basic ethical and moral principles. You need to do a lecture series on the just war understanding of war that has informed Christian civilizations for quite some time. I think he also writes, David noticed that BB comes here the very next day, Trump threatens

Iran and invades Venezuela. Who is in charge of the USA. Well, I think we know right as a matter of fact, when you look at this war for Israel, I talked about how they were leading this up and saying, well, okay, we can't get Trump to attack Iran again. You know Netta who has been selling that lie that Trump is that Iran is going to have a bomb any day now. Any day now, they're going to have a nuclear bomb, and he's been telling people that for thirty five years.

They're just days or months away. And so now Trump has bombed these facilities and said he completely destroyed him. So he can't make Trump lose face in that. So now they have to talk about the fact that it's about missiles in general has now become really vague and it's just a general war against Iran. And you know, that's the other thing that happened over the weekend, and that is the fact that I'm going to skip the break here actually because i want to talk about this

since it was brought up what is going on with Iran. Well, he's going to basically save the behind of the iatolas with his talk. Yeah, we're locked and loaded when you look at what is happening in Iran. Iran is experiencing the same thing. A lot of countries are. You know, as Jeryl Sunty said, this is trained. We're going to see gen Z, the up and coming generation is looking at this and saying we have no future. This is

happening globally. You had riots in Nepal, you had riots in a lot of different areas about this type of thing, and now it's hitting in Iran. And Iran's economy has not been all that good. You know, people it seems like people will put up a tyranny as long as the economy is good. But then once the economy starts to tamper down, people start to notice the tyranny and get really upset about that. They get upset because they

don't have any future. And as we were looking at asymmetric warfare, that was the assessment of the Pentagon planners. As they were talking about why they were doing so poorly in Iraq and other places, they said, you know, who are these people that are fighting us in Iraq? And I said, well, they're typically not religious zealots. The religious zelotry comes later. What happens first of all is usually these people are well educated. You know, many of

them had degrees in engineering. They had a future that came from an upper middle class or wealthy family, and then all of a sudden they feel like that's been taken away from them because of geopolitics. So that's what motivates them. Then they bring in the religion aspect after the fact. But this is what is happening in Iran. And you go back and you look at what happened under the Shaw of the Shaw. The economic growth in Iran was staggering. We should have it so good here.

We never have not in my lifetime. When you look at what has happened in the United States, they were getting thirteen fourteen percent a year economic growth and it really kicked into high gear with Opek stuff, But a lot of that was the US even as that was happening in the late nineteen seventies. As I've said many times, there were a lot of engineering students who were Iranian at the University of South Florida where I was in engineering,

and I saw these guys out there. I didn't recognize them, but because they were wearing balaclavas, and so I knew there were a lot of these guys in the engineering classes. I didn't usually talk to them, but I was curious because they were having all these protests and they were wearing these hoods. So I asked them, say, what's that about. And they said, well, whenever we have a protest to what the Shaw is doing, there are people in the

crowd who are working for his secret police. They take pictures of us, and they identify our families and they arrest our families, put them in jail, torture them. That's why we wear the masks. That's horrible. Said yeah, I'm sure government that trained them. It was a CIA. Again, back to the CIA, the criminal intelligence let's just call them agency instead of a holes. But the CIA trained the Savakh and it's very repressive, but by and large the people put up with it until the economy tapered

off and started to turn down. A little bit. Part of the reason that it tapered off and turned down was because of people's reaction to that oppression. But all of a sudden it accelerated as people and capital began fleeing from Iran. They could see the handwriting on the wall, and so perhaps the same type of thing could happen in Iran. You've had a lot of people that have been killed in a lot of riots that were there.

Even had a situation of one guy doing a standoff to the military's police, and they even called it Tehranian Square or something to that effect, referring back to Tianeman's Square. So what does Trump do. He threatens Iran, He threatens the Iotola government. Yeah, we're locked and loaded. He said, do you understand that that is already being used by the Iotolas to say, well, look that's the great Satan that's threatening us. It's to call us support around them.

Always people will take you to war in order to save their sorry domestic government. Trump is doing it for them. He's going to go to war with him he's going to go to war with them with rhetoric. Trump is bailing out the Ayatolas in Iran. And this is the insanity of our foreign policy to Iran. It's been wrong about everything. And American involvement with Iran did not begin with a takeover of the US embassy in seventy nine.

That was the end of decades of bad policy and oppression and torture and a murderous, tyrannical regime that we financed, and we thought we could get away with it because we were funneling money to them and they were seeing their standard of living rise. No, not necessarily, and so you see the same type of thing being done still

in Iran. We never ever learned, never ever learn guard Goldsmith says, even if the US were to overlook inter national treaties and not ask for extradition, the Congress would have to pass letters of mark to hire people to go after enemy combatants or pirates, etc. Well, you're absolutely right. We don't care about any of that anymore, do we. Well, I am going to take a break here and we're going to be right back, and I think, well, I do have a new song that we're going to play today.

I hope you enjoy it, but I want to play a Christmas song here at this point in time. I know it's after Christmas, after New Year's, but I don't care. Go Jesus, you know some time you love fau.

I've talked many times about the CCPA. I call it the Chinese Communist Party of America, but actually it stands for the Coalition for Content, Providence and Authenticity. And this is a coalition of hardware and software companies as well as news organizations and governments to look at your content and to look at who that content is coming from. That's what they mean by providence. They will then authenticate

you and rank you. And if you are a despised person because of your opinions, you will not be able to even create audio or video or still picture memes or write articles. They will block you. And you've got the big companies. Microsoft was heading all of this stuff, putting together this coalition. You had companies like Intel and

arm creating the processors. You had Adobe software creator, all coming together in this coalition to identify you, to identify your computer, and to keep you from being able to create, keep you from being able to upload. That's what he's talking about. It's a very real thing. This is not just an off the cuff remark from the Israeli billionaire. And that's the way that Israel blesses us. Now, when people put that up, a lot of people came back

and said, well, that's not Netanyahu at all. He doesn't reflect the Netna who got Well, it turns out that he and Netah who have had their personal differences in Israel. As a matter of fact, in Israel, this Shlomo defended liberal democracy against net Nyaho. He said, we need freedom in Israel. He just doesn't want freedom for you. And understand that net Nyaho is more authoritarian than this guy who is saying got to end the First Amendment. Of course,

he's not going to end freedoms for Israelis. He wants to end freedoms for Americans. Your freedom to criticize Israelis must be ended. You don't think Netanyah who supports that. You don't think that they are on the same page with this, Well, if you think that you haven't been paying attention, it's Netna who getting the Trump administration to penalize anybody who criticizes the state of Israel, calling it

anti semitism. It's not anti semitism, it's against a political organization, which, as I pointed out last week, net Ya who is when you look at the vaccine, the pandemic stuff. He was one of the worst offenders of all the global leaders who were on the same page and lockstep, but he was one offering his people as lab rat staffizer and some of the most restrictive arm twisting of any government in terms of forcing people to get the Trump shot.

And now that that happened and a lot of people got hurt in Israel, he harmed a lot of Jews there, And now that people have seen that same reaction that we're seeing here, people don't want to get the childhood shots.

People are starting to question the whole vaccine thing. So the net Yaho administration is talking about how they can penalize financially people who don't get the vaccine schedule that's been demanded so yeah, Netnaho doesn't care even about the civil liberties of Jews in Israel, certainly doesn't care about civil liberties of Americans. Here this guy who opposed him for attacking the freedoms and civil liberties of Jews. This Shlomo Kramer wants to, however, do the same thing to us.

Both of them agree on punishing Israel. That's sure, that's your blessing for all the people who misread that biblical passage. There, So again censorship for us, but not for them. So top Department of Justice official who trained Pam Bondy on

ethics rules in the department was then fired. And if you don't think that these people are fully on board with this, if you don't think that Pam Bondy is fully on board with censorship over hate speech, This is an older clip of her talking about that in the context of criticizing Israel, there's free.

government weaponization. She's talking about getting rid of the First Amendment as well. Again, she's going to decide what is true and false. She will decide what is weaponization. And of course, if she comes after the First Amendment, it's not weaponization of government at all. Well, she better start with herself if she's going to come after people who are weaponizing government against other individuals. Did Brett Kavanaugh just

apologize for betraying the Fourth Amendment? Maybe? Says Reason. Back in September, the Supreme Court issued an unsigned emergency order that effectively permitted racial profiling as part of Trump's roving immigration crackdowns. Writing in Concurrence, Kavanaugh claimed that it was only common sense to allow immigration agents to stop people

based on such relevant factors. He said, as quote apparent ethnicity. Well, it's kind of interesting because now that he's seen a couple of months of this, he's had a change of heart. Reminds me very much of the case that I've talked about so many times, about the Cherokee Trail of Tears and how Andrew Jackson went to the Supreme Court over this. You know, can I move these people? Can I deport them out of their homeland into some other place? And

the Supreme Court greenlighted it. And then when they saw what was happening with the Trail of Tears, they had a change of heart and they reversed it. And Andrew Jackson famously said, well, they've issued their opinion, let's see them enforce it. He had the force, and he actually had the law on the Constitution on his side because of the separation of powers. And I've used that illustration many times to say that we do not have to be slaves to Supreme Court decisions. And I used it

in the context of abortion. I said governors should stand against that aid, which was a court case in Texas. The Texas governor at the time should have said, well, the Supreme Court's issued their opinion, let's see that m enforce it. I'm going to protect innocent life. They didn't do that, and no government, no president ever did that, And so for decades, for about fifty years, we had

sixty some odd million babies killed because people didn't assert that. Well, Cavanagh has now had a change of heart, just like the Scotis did under the Cherokey decision. But it's not really going to make any difference. He or he wrote

that decision, he said last week. Supreme Court issued another unsigned emergency order on December twenty third, and another immigration related case, except this time Kavanaugh penned a concurrence that approached the issue of rights violating federal officers quite differently. Here's what he wrote last week. The state and government disagree about whether the immigration officers have violated the Constitution making certain immigration stops and arrests. The basic constitutional rules

governing that dispute are long standing and clear. The Fourth Amendment requires that immigration stops must be based on reasonable suspicion of the illegal president presence, not just your ethnicity. Stops must be brief, arrests must be based on probable cause, and the officers must not employ excessive force. More Over, the officers must not make interior immigration stops or arrests

based on race or ethnicity. When he originally penned the first decision, he said, well, I think if somebody is stopped because their ethnicity, it'll be brief and it won't be a big deal, right, But then they saw that it really was a big deal and the way this is being done. Now, go back and get a conscience about what's being done with a TSA, what's being done with surveillance, and all the rest of this stuff. I mean, this is just one small facet of what is happening.

But as we move into twenty twenty six, already the people are sharing the fact that this is the two hundredth and fiftieth anniversary of the declaration of independence, it's time for another one. Yet Chief Justice John Roberts says the nation's legal foundation is unshaken. No, it's been broken, shredded, burned. And he's had a big hent in all of this stuff as well. So, yeah, we've had. Everything's just fine. Well, once you to take a look at civilast at forfiture,

the TSA, at the bombing of boats and other areas, etc, Etc. Etc. I could go on forever. The former history major, I didn't know that John Roberts was a history major, extolled the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, which he said continue to survive through national discord. President Calvin Coolidge's comments at the nation's one hundred and fiftieth anniversary, he said two great charters of freedom and justice remained firm and unshaken.

Roberts said it was true then and it's true now, and he's lying to you. You know, it's interesting that the is a history professor. I ought to know this. The it's not just the Constitution and the Decoration Independence that are being destroyed. The Magna Karta is being defied and destroyed in the UK and elsewhere in principle, everywhere you look. Here's the situation, folks. And this is actually

kind of comical. Something happened in Japan. Lance saw this and he went hysterical, laughing, and he showed these clips to me. America has a reputation now of being a police state because the war on drugs and other things like that, so much so that in Japan they did a very very detailed larp, you know, role playing game where everybody dressed up like American cops, even had body cameras that were recording and that you'll see this video.

They've been blurred out people's faces and everything, and they're knocking on doors and uh, you know, say Parice, and then he turned around and says the other guy, it's rocked me. The door is locked.

that's going on. They got the one clans.

was a coincidence. It doesn't really matter if it's there not they it's been effectively gotten rid of by them over and over again. Well, I wanted to talk a little bit about what's happened over over last year and what happened around New Years. I'm gonna take a quick break here. And by the way, this is a I've got lyrics for this song. I don't have anybody singing it. That's another issue altogether. But I put this together. You've heard this before. That's actually the tune is from theme

from Rudy. You may like the lyrics app you like the lyrics We'll be right back. Well, Americans will drop everything and anything to celebrate New Year's Eve? Did see this happened in New York? He had a massive hoax. There's always a joke about hey, I got a bridge I can sell you in Brooklyn. Right, Well, it wasn't the bridge that they were selling, but it was fireworks display on the bridge that they were selling to people.

And it turned out to be a hoax. You had thousands of people who shut up to watch what had gone around on social media. Was going to be a fireworks display at the Brooklyn Bridge, thousands of people and here's what happened. Nothing, Wait a minute, Yeah it was a lie. There's no fireworks there, so yeah, that's I thought that was a really funny course. We watched some of the fires who watched the ball drop what we

used to do and then turn it off. I don't cao much for the entertainment they have in New York anymore, but anyway, not my culture. There was a fireworks display in London that's all centered around the big eye of one of the big Ferris wheels they have there, and we're watching it and there were these projected images in the center of the wheel. I thought, wow, that's amazing. What is that? How'd they do that? Are they protecting that? At first there was a lot of smoke. Are they

protecting it? On the smoke? But it looked very, very flat. It didn't look like it had the the profile of the smoke or anything, and didn't have any missing areas there. And so they kept doing it one thing after the other, and so we looked it up and it was being done broadcast by the BBC. The PBC was adding those graphics after the fact. And this is something that the Chinese communists had done a few years ago. They basically had a situation. People showed up for fireworks display, but

there was no fireworks display except on the internet. They added the fireworks and post as we say, so, I guess nobody has gone through and added the fireworks and posts for the Brooklyn Bridge people with thousands of people showed up to see that and there was nothing there. And I guess in a sense, that was the dog that did not bark over the weekend always in the past, whether it was Fourth of July or whether it was

New Year's Eve. Here in Tennessee, we're up elevated in an area, and we would you know, I haven't done fireworks for quite a while because I thought they were expensive. But there were tons of people all over the place that were doing fireworks and would look out over the hills and we'd see them all over the place happening. But in the immediate area there were a lot of people setting off fireworks in their own backyard that were very very close to us. This year, nothing, nothing at all.

That's really strange. And then Karen started looking at posts from people that she knows in different areas of the country. They were saying the same thing. Her mother in Florida said the same thing. She says, as a matter of fact, usually people go out there banging on pots and pans at midnight. That wasn't even happening. Well, so what is that telling us? First my first impression was, well, fireworks are expensive. People are worried about the economy. Maybe they're

not spending the money on the fireworks. But then I started thinking about they talk about different countries and whether or not fireworks are integral to New Year's Eve and for a lot of people. This is an article from zero Hedge or fireworks integral to New Year's Eve in

different countries. They said, well, it's bad for the environment, it's distressing to animals and people with conditions such as PTSD as well as dangerous and so you know, we did spend one New Year's Eve looking for a little Yorkshire terrier that got freaked out and ran away at the house where we were celebrating. So yeah, I almost get distressed about that. But that didn't happen this year, And like I said, not even any pots and pans, and part of it, I think it goes beyond economics.

I think it also goes to our increasing isolation from each other. Typically, people in a neighborhood and everything are going to get together. Might have neighbors getting together, you might have somebody having a party. I mean, if it's just you and your immediate family, you're going to go out and spend a lot of money on fireworks. Evidently not,

they're pointing out that fireworks are a bigger deal. According to a poll in Germany than anywhere else, twenty nine percent of the people I believe they to have fireworks. In the US is twenty seven percent, much lower in other countries like Mexico, only fourteen percent. But the reality is is that it's also part of the dying socialization. It's kind of funny to me that that was always the first thing somebody would say to us when we homeschool our kids back in the early nineties, Well, you're

not getting them socialized or whatever. Look at the state of socialization now. Everybody is isolated, and it's even when it comes to the parties. The other thing I thought was interesting was this article coming out of the UK and aversion to alcohol is making sober raves and increasingly

popular alternative. I thought about this, look at all of the effort by the US government to stop people from drinking, and what a total failure the Eighteenth Amendment was, and yet now people are having And this isn't just in the UK, it's also in some Asian countries. They're trying to get healthy, they're tired of the way alcohol makes them feel. They're having coffee parties in the morning rather than having cocktail parties at night. That's the gist of

this article. People can figure this stuff out. They don't need government paternalism. Sa Miller one two three says under Trump, the US has bombed seven countries. That's right, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Iraq, Iran, Nigeria, Venezuela, scare tactics and land grams. That's absolutely right. I guess that's one of the reasons why he thought he deserved a Peace prize, because you know, Obama started seven wars and Trump has done that many or revived wars that

were in many cases silent. DG eight, Thank you for the tip, says David. No arrest for J six tyranny, No rest for COVID tyranny, No Fauci arrests, nos seen client list arrests. No, the first arrest is a foreign leader. Pathetic and even more pathetic that Trump just before that had issued a pardon for a guy who really was dealing drugs, the Honduran president. Now he was caught, he

was tried and convicted, but in jail. Trump released him and then goes and gets Maduro, who again I have I think Maduro is corrupt, he's a communist, but that's none of our business actually, and lies about the the drug stuff or just cover for what they wanted to do. Well, as we look at what is coming this year, you know, I was on New Year's Eve, I was on Courtney Turner's show, not Coney Turner, Shannon Joy Shannon Joy's show,

and I appreciate her having me on. And when we talked about what was coming up in the next year, my advice to them give you my same advice to you, as I think this is going to be a very difficult year. I think things are going to really accelerate. We're going to see a lot of chaos. I think we're going to see wars, and I think it's you know, economically, it's going to be challenging for people as well. And so my advice to you would be to get a diary.

And I'm not selling the book in the bookmark thing now that I saw before. I'm serious about it. I mean, get anything and write it down. I write down in something like I've got with this, keep a record of it. But do it for your own growth. Do it because you can see God working in your life in retrospect, especially when you get into difficult times like this, and it'll be when you start to see things and just you know, after a few months you can go back and look at and say, wow, that was kind of

interesting how God worked that out in my life. And it's going to give you confidence for what you can do when you get other types of trials. It's so important that we don't forget, and we do forget. We think we remember, but we don't. And I have had that experience over and over again, which really surprised me, because really, when I write things down, I typically remember them. If I just read it or talk about it a lot of times, I'll forget it. But if I write

something down, I usually remember it. And yet I was surprised to find that when I went back and looked at my diaries, that I had forgotten a lot of the details of how God had answered prayer and how circumstances had been taken care of in various things, or what we learned from the difficult circumstances that were not removed. And so this is an opportunity. I think this next year it's going to be you know, crisis is danger and opportunity. That's the Chinese symbol for crisis, those two

things a symbol for symbol for opportunity. I think this is going to be a very dangerous year, and I think it's real opportunity for spiritual growth for you, and to take a look at the things that are really important in your life, and so that'd be my advice to you. In addition to that, I would say prepare. I didn't have time to talk about today, but there was an article about Victory gardens and the massive quantity of vegetables that were grown during World War Two by

people through the Victory gardens. The government actually actively encourage people to grow food for their own use. I would suggest that I would also suggest that you start to do some things for your own use in terms of energy and other things like that that are so easily disrupted. As we move and again we're moving towards conflict and towards chaos. That has been the unifying theme of everything

that Trump has done. Everything that he's done has been about conflict and chaos, and that's going to continue to escalate. And as we move into that kind of a situation, it's more important than ever to prepare. And that's why I talk about the diaries and you know, your own time with God. That is a kind of preparation that goes beyond the gardens and goes beyond having you know, prepper items that are set there. You certainly need to

do that as well. But it's a time to prepare yourself and to think about what is coming on, because things are going to be very challenging, I think, and I think you just need to look at it as an opportunity to grow in your relationship with God. That's the key thing, you know, even as we look at electricity prices, something that's that fundamental food as well as electricity are going up rapidly. And there's some interesting articles that I don't have time to cover that talk about

it from a partisan perspective. When these people say, well, look, you know in the Blue States, the prices of electricity have skyrocketed, and they said because these same quote unquote Blue states are putting in these state renewable mandates. And it's actually that is something the price of electricity is something that is controlled at the state level. There's even a federal law blocking the federal government from setting these

electricity prices. And so that's why there's such a variation and why you can see that these different policies are raising the prices and stuff. Going back to two thousand and eight, I was working with a group that had a lawsuit going against Colorado. They were the very first state to do these renewable mandates, so we knew where it was going. We knew it would do exactly this

type of thing. But we've got clowns on the left who are pushing this for the Green agenda, and we're going to have clowns on the right who are pushing it for the AI data centers. And that's why Trump is pushing to stop any regulation of AI at the state level, because that's where you could stop it, and he doesn't want it stopped. Thank you for joining us. Have a good day. The common man. They created common

Core and dumb down our children. They created common past, track and control us their Commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide

everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at the Davidnightshow dot com. Thank you for listening.
