<v Speaker 1>You.

<v Speaker 2>Chilly effect is sponsored by Wallstreet, Window dot Com.

00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:11.080
<v Speaker 3>And listeners is likely yeah, nowated in autia.

4
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:18.160
<v Speaker 4>Okay, minor variation on the original intro that was original

5
00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:21.679
<v Speaker 4>about three four years ago, but hey, why not recut,

6
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:24.359
<v Speaker 4>re edit, and reuse. It seems like that's what Hollywood

7
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:26.239
<v Speaker 4>and TV is doing every single day.

8
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:28.120
<v Speaker 5>Anyway, Here we are.

9
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:30.480
<v Speaker 4>The o'celli effect, and it is the seventh day of

10
00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:33.880
<v Speaker 4>January twenty twenty six, allegedly according to that thing we

11
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:37.840
<v Speaker 4>call a calendar, and I've already done a news snapoo

12
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.799
<v Speaker 4>for the day. But now we're going to get deep

13
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:43.240
<v Speaker 4>on the dive, if you will, with the guy who

14
00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:45.840
<v Speaker 4>is the best man to survive if you want your

15
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:50.920
<v Speaker 4>sanity to do so, regarding sober analysis on guess what

16
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:54.880
<v Speaker 4>historical topics things that are in real time may be

17
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:58.560
<v Speaker 4>happening at the moment and history being made in twenty

18
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:02.759
<v Speaker 4>twenty six and maybe the tail end of twenty twenty.

19
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:04.719
<v Speaker 5>Five and the hangover of that's still happening.

20
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:09.280
<v Speaker 4>Because we're going to talk Venezuela with author, researcher and

21
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:13.040
<v Speaker 4>overall hell of a guy, Larry Hancock. Go to Larry

22
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:17.040
<v Speaker 4>Larry Hancock's word press site which you will see in

23
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:20.439
<v Speaker 4>the show notes attached to this show, and follow his

24
00:01:20.519 --> 00:01:23.840
<v Speaker 4>blog over there because your blog is still perfectly live

25
00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:25.799
<v Speaker 4>over on the word press site, right Larry.

26
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I just made a post about an hour ago.

27
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:33.840
<v Speaker 4>Excellent, So definitely go over there and read it. And

28
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:36.599
<v Speaker 4>I highly recommend all of his books, and I do

29
00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:40.079
<v Speaker 4>mean all of his books that have been released, and

30
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:43.879
<v Speaker 4>I am looking forward to seeing what the updated Oswald

31
00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:45.920
<v Speaker 4>Puzzle is going to look like, which I think is

32
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.519
<v Speaker 4>due to be released like now or very very soon.

33
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:52.799
<v Speaker 4>Check on Amazon. I know you can pre order and

34
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:56.799
<v Speaker 4>keep up on that. God knows we need somebody at

35
00:01:56.920 --> 00:02:01.280
<v Speaker 4>least giving us a healthy bit of information regarding the history,

36
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:04.599
<v Speaker 4>even if it's being made in real time. Who knows

37
00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:07.920
<v Speaker 4>what book would we have to attach today's discussion to,

38
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Larry Gee, let me think a shadow warfare, surprise attack,

39
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:15.919
<v Speaker 4>created chaos. You know, all of these things might touch

40
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:21.439
<v Speaker 4>upon the current event subject for our discussion tonight.

41
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:23.879
<v Speaker 5>What would you suggest, though, if.

42
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:26.800
<v Speaker 4>Somebody wanted a primer or a primer on this, if

43
00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:31.199
<v Speaker 4>you will, regarding the action that we're seeing, that's no

44
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:33.120
<v Speaker 4>longer plausible deniability.

45
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:36.039
<v Speaker 5>But anyway, it is what it is. It was what

46
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:37.719
<v Speaker 5>it was, And did.

47
00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:41.240
<v Speaker 4>We just actually and the proverbial we being the United

48
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:44.520
<v Speaker 4>States government, did we just snatch as the president of

49
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:48.840
<v Speaker 4>a country, whether legitimate or otherwise, and then tell the

50
00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:50.719
<v Speaker 4>vice president they were going to do what they were

51
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.280
<v Speaker 4>told or else? I mean, did that just happen in public?

52
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:56.159
<v Speaker 4>Or am I imagining things?

53
00:02:57.439 --> 00:02:57.800
<v Speaker 5>Larry?

54
00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:01.240
<v Speaker 4>Which book should we attack this one? Two of your

55
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:03.800
<v Speaker 4>previous writings? Sorry? Which ones?

56
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:07.439
<v Speaker 1>Two responses?

57
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:10.599
<v Speaker 3>Chuck On the first one, Shadow Warfare would definitely be

58
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:13.919
<v Speaker 3>the right book to give the backstory to what's going

59
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:14.759
<v Speaker 3>on now.

60
00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:18.639
<v Speaker 1>There's no doubt about that. Give some perspective.

61
00:03:18.680 --> 00:03:21.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean, what we're doing now goes on back much

62
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:23.039
<v Speaker 3>further than that.

63
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 1>But Shadow Warfare I think does a good.

64
00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:28.840
<v Speaker 3>Job of illustrating how what we're doing now is different

65
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.879
<v Speaker 3>than the other fifty two times we've done it in

66
00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:36.120
<v Speaker 3>the last two centuries, because we continue to do the

67
00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:39.360
<v Speaker 3>same things over and over again. It's just a matter

68
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:42.199
<v Speaker 3>of how we do them and how we describe them

69
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:45.039
<v Speaker 3>and how public we are with them. Well on your

70
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:49.159
<v Speaker 3>second point, actually, I think not. My best assessment at

71
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:53.400
<v Speaker 3>the moment is that we actually not we that the

72
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:59.199
<v Speaker 3>president did a deal with the Venezuelan administration. He did

73
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:03.759
<v Speaker 3>a deal with the Vice President of Venezuela to leave

74
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:08.639
<v Speaker 3>that administration in place and lay the groundwork for buying

75
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:13.439
<v Speaker 3>their oil and taking control of their oil and basically

76
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:18.160
<v Speaker 3>kicking to the kicking to the side the woman who

77
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:22.000
<v Speaker 3>we had helped get the Nobel Prize by saying that, no,

78
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:27.920
<v Speaker 3>she leads a democratic movement, but she's not really strong

79
00:04:28.040 --> 00:04:31.160
<v Speaker 3>enough leader. So we need to say with the vice president,

80
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.199
<v Speaker 3>who will sign off the rights to us.

81
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:38.519
<v Speaker 4>Ah. Okay, so just keeping you know, for those of

82
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:41.920
<v Speaker 4>you keeping score at home, first thing is okay, fine,

83
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:47.120
<v Speaker 4>shadow warfare works, just fine. This is not unprecedented. That's

84
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:49.519
<v Speaker 4>the thing that bothered me throughout the reporting is I

85
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:51.240
<v Speaker 4>had to read over and over again how this was

86
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:54.879
<v Speaker 4>some sort of unprecedented situation, and I'm like, no, it's

87
00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:57.879
<v Speaker 4>not if you actually know the history. What is kind

88
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:03.000
<v Speaker 4>of unprecedented in my mind is the WWE.

89
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:03.279
<v Speaker 5>Style scripting here.

90
00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:06.959
<v Speaker 4>I mean this very much reads in the public anyway,

91
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:11.680
<v Speaker 4>very much like a storyline that you know, maybe somebody had,

92
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:15.680
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, missus McMahon, you know, give us a

93
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:20.000
<v Speaker 4>bit of I don't know, script consulting, maybe regarding how

94
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:23.680
<v Speaker 4>to write this. It was very weird because in short,

95
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:27.720
<v Speaker 4>Larry and just let me get over my stupid superficial

96
00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:32.079
<v Speaker 4>look at it. Yeah, we see that. Okay, Maduro is snatched.

97
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:37.800
<v Speaker 4>He's being captured because drug boats and on his way

98
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.959
<v Speaker 4>over while he was still in transit, they started to spend. Yeah,

99
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:44.000
<v Speaker 4>but we need the oil too. Trump goes out, makes

100
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:47.240
<v Speaker 4>a statement and basically says, that's okay, we'll deal with

101
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:51.600
<v Speaker 4>the Vice president lady, and she's gonna do what she's told.

102
00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:54.360
<v Speaker 4>She made a statement right after saying I don't know

103
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:56.720
<v Speaker 4>what you're talking about. We want our president back. Hey,

104
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:00.839
<v Speaker 4>you know, feigning at the very least outrage over the

105
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:04.439
<v Speaker 4>whole thing. We don't see any movement from anybody. But again,

106
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:08.120
<v Speaker 4>that whole strangeness with the Peace president, you know, being

107
00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:10.360
<v Speaker 4>pushed for a prize by somebody else who won a

108
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:14.519
<v Speaker 4>prize and then dedicating it to him. That political theater

109
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:18.720
<v Speaker 4>went on, and in reality, what are we looking at.

110
00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:21.639
<v Speaker 4>We have a foreign leader brought here. Now if a

111
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:25.959
<v Speaker 4>deal was struck with that administration, that's kind of fascinating.

112
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:29.800
<v Speaker 4>Would that be to simply assure the safety of Maduro?

113
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:35.399
<v Speaker 4>And isn't it interesting The hypocrisy of pardoning another narco

114
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:40.079
<v Speaker 4>state leader, like in very close proximity to this happening.

115
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:45.759
<v Speaker 4>It's pretty wild, Larry. So, all I'm saying is this

116
00:06:45.879 --> 00:06:48.519
<v Speaker 4>doesn't look quite the same on the surface as you

117
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:51.800
<v Speaker 4>would think it would appear if you really know what's

118
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:55.079
<v Speaker 4>going on behind the scenes, and yet it's not being

119
00:06:55.079 --> 00:06:58.720
<v Speaker 4>done quietly. It's being done very much outfront. Unless I've

120
00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:03.160
<v Speaker 4>lost my mind. I mean, let's begin with the beginning again.

121
00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:07.399
<v Speaker 4>Not an unusual action to turn around and capture a

122
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:12.439
<v Speaker 4>sovereign leader, despite the fact that I think others would

123
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:16.439
<v Speaker 4>object to this if it was done by someone other

124
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:18.759
<v Speaker 4>than Donald Trump. I think there would be people right

125
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:22.360
<v Speaker 4>now in political power who would be making statements against

126
00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:25.399
<v Speaker 4>this kind of movement. Why are we involving ourselves in

127
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:29.199
<v Speaker 4>the foreign affairs of well foreign countries, etc.

128
00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:32.759
<v Speaker 5>Etc. But where should we begin unpacking this?

129
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:38.519
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think we have to address it in three steps.

130
00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:45.079
<v Speaker 3>The first step is to look at forced rendition. I mean,

131
00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:49.360
<v Speaker 3>that's the very first step. Is does the United States

132
00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:53.839
<v Speaker 3>have the authority, the history, etc. To literally designate someone

133
00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.959
<v Speaker 3>as a criminal essentially lay a case out in an

134
00:07:57.959 --> 00:08:01.839
<v Speaker 3>American court, not in the court they live, lay out

135
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:05.560
<v Speaker 3>an injunction, get an injunction granted, and as a nation,

136
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:09.959
<v Speaker 3>grant itself the authority to go get those people wherever

137
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:14.480
<v Speaker 3>they are, regardless of extradition laws or not, regardless of

138
00:08:14.519 --> 00:08:16.920
<v Speaker 3>the objections of any country where they happen to be,

139
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:19.639
<v Speaker 3>and literally state our law.

140
00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:20.639
<v Speaker 1>Trumps your law.

141
00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:23.480
<v Speaker 3>We don't care what your laws are, we don't care

142
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:27.040
<v Speaker 3>what your position are. We have made a decision in

143
00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:32.960
<v Speaker 3>our country. This person has committed an illegal act which

144
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:36.840
<v Speaker 3>involves us in some fashion, and it's perfectly all right

145
00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:39.519
<v Speaker 3>for us to do whatever we need to do to

146
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:42.360
<v Speaker 3>go get them. This could be an individual.

147
00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:45.759
<v Speaker 1>We did a lot of that. We did a ton

148
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:47.120
<v Speaker 1>of that after nine to eleven.

149
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.919
<v Speaker 3>You know, that was primarily individuals in a host of

150
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:56.840
<v Speaker 3>countries overseas, black rendition, with CIA teams grabbing them up,

151
00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:01.600
<v Speaker 3>taking them to interrogateation centers and actually never bringing legal

152
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.159
<v Speaker 3>charges against them, just grabbing them up and eventually ending

153
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:07.879
<v Speaker 3>up with them either dead or in Guantanamo. So on

154
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:11.679
<v Speaker 3>an individual basis, forced rendition is nothing new, because we.

155
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Just declare we have the authority to do that.

156
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:18.240
<v Speaker 3>However, we've done it at this scale before in Panama

157
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:24.559
<v Speaker 3>with Noriega we declared him a criminal with drug connections,

158
00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:30.600
<v Speaker 3>went into the country, literally savaged its small military force,

159
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:33.120
<v Speaker 3>took him, did the same thing.

160
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:34.039
<v Speaker 1>I think.

161
00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:37.720
<v Speaker 3>So if you just leave it to forced rendition, you

162
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.039
<v Speaker 3>either have to say, you know, it's okay that the

163
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:46.279
<v Speaker 3>United States declares that its laws supersede everybody else's laws. Okay,

164
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.240
<v Speaker 3>if you take this position, this is nothing new. We

165
00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:53.519
<v Speaker 3>just do it because we can't do it. What's different

166
00:09:53.559 --> 00:09:58.159
<v Speaker 3>about this one is that we didn't. We literally and

167
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:00.720
<v Speaker 3>nobody's tallied up the numbers, and the media is not

168
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:06.840
<v Speaker 3>covering it. We destroyed a significant portion of the Venezuelan

169
00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:11.440
<v Speaker 3>military that had nothing to do other than providing cover

170
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:13.200
<v Speaker 3>for the extraction force.

171
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:14.279
<v Speaker 1>But we we.

172
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:18.879
<v Speaker 3>Took out millions and millions dollars worth of their military equipment.

173
00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:24.480
<v Speaker 3>We killed lots of people. That's beyond just getting Maduro.

174
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:29.320
<v Speaker 3>So we literally, you'd have to say we waged war

175
00:10:29.399 --> 00:10:32.840
<v Speaker 3>on a foreign country in conjunction with the rendition. And

176
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:35.919
<v Speaker 3>we're certainly not going to offer any damages. We're not

177
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.360
<v Speaker 3>going to offer any apologies. We're just going to say

178
00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:43.919
<v Speaker 3>it's all right that we destroyed equipment that you guys

179
00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:49.240
<v Speaker 3>spent tens, maybe hundreds of millions of dollars on because

180
00:10:49.320 --> 00:10:50.600
<v Speaker 3>we were enforcing our law.

181
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:52.360
<v Speaker 1>And that's just the way it goes.

182
00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:55.720
<v Speaker 3>And that's you know, if you look at the military

183
00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:58.879
<v Speaker 3>channels that I do, you can see the extent of

184
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.960
<v Speaker 3>the damage because if you looked at Caracas that it

185
00:11:02.200 --> 00:11:06.120
<v Speaker 3>wasn't just Caracas, it was all over the country. And again,

186
00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:09.559
<v Speaker 3>as a military buff myself, I understand why you do

187
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:12.759
<v Speaker 3>that to protect your own people. But if you felt

188
00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:15.360
<v Speaker 3>you were forced to do it, you might just say, look,

189
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:19.720
<v Speaker 3>if you guys have cooperated this criminal, tell you what.

190
00:11:19.799 --> 00:11:22.440
<v Speaker 3>We'll come down and we'll try and I'm going to.

191
00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Third party, you know. But no, we didn't take that approach.

192
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:30.919
<v Speaker 3>We whether you like it or don't like it, and

193
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:39.799
<v Speaker 3>I think there's a general we didn't just do forced rendition.

194
00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:47.519
<v Speaker 3>We did a broad scale military action and chewed up

195
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:49.360
<v Speaker 3>a lot of their resources to get them.

196
00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:52.639
<v Speaker 1>And they're the first thing that you have to in

197
00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:57.120
<v Speaker 1>your own mind say, was that lead right? Larry M

198
00:11:57.279 --> 00:12:02.039
<v Speaker 1>don't legal within our system and we have and over again.

199
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:05.080
<v Speaker 4>Larry mute up for a minute and just relaxed because

200
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:07.919
<v Speaker 4>we're getting a little bit of weird interference. It seems

201
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:11.080
<v Speaker 4>like the internet signal is degrading, just a touch, and

202
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:14.080
<v Speaker 4>I just want to enter something into the conversation here

203
00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:16.279
<v Speaker 4>and perhaps it'll stabilize while I'm talking.

204
00:12:17.799 --> 00:12:18.840
<v Speaker 5>You know, what's.

205
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.200
<v Speaker 4>Interesting here is that it's undeniable that an act of

206
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:27.440
<v Speaker 4>war or warlike acts were committed here. That's a certainty

207
00:12:27.720 --> 00:12:32.639
<v Speaker 4>that's publicly observable. But the idea that there should be

208
00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:36.960
<v Speaker 4>no sort of retaliation because we were so super justified

209
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.799
<v Speaker 4>is one thing. But the weird thing to me is

210
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.759
<v Speaker 4>this again, I can't stand it. Like I said, it's

211
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:51.679
<v Speaker 4>like a WWE script. They are feigning surprise that this happened,

212
00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:57.840
<v Speaker 4>when meanwhile, we watched military assets get maneuvered. People talked about,

213
00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:00.759
<v Speaker 4>you know, these ships being moved into the Caribe, and

214
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:04.480
<v Speaker 4>people talked about there being a focus, okay, with some

215
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:08.480
<v Speaker 4>of our assets being deployed in such a way that

216
00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:11.240
<v Speaker 4>in my mind, it was predictable that something like this

217
00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:16.559
<v Speaker 4>was going to occur. It's just that the target, the

218
00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:20.600
<v Speaker 4>chosen target of Venezuela, seems weird to me because of

219
00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:23.919
<v Speaker 4>the let's call it the priority list. How is it

220
00:13:23.960 --> 00:13:27.639
<v Speaker 4>that Venezuela is on the top of the priority list. Well,

221
00:13:27.879 --> 00:13:30.639
<v Speaker 4>you know, the real answer is given to you in

222
00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:33.679
<v Speaker 4>the new spin, which is, oh, by the way, it's

223
00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:38.360
<v Speaker 4>not just about the narco state aspects of this and

224
00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:41.960
<v Speaker 4>the government supporting drug trafficking. Oh no, no, no, it's

225
00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:47.480
<v Speaker 4>not just that, but also oil. And there's no apology

226
00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:52.000
<v Speaker 4>to that, There's no, it's unapologetically offered that oil plays

227
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.720
<v Speaker 4>a serious role here in assembling the motive for what

228
00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:01.720
<v Speaker 4>is either an act of war or a warlife like action. Okay,

229
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:04.200
<v Speaker 4>if you want to get into the semantics battle here,

230
00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:08.600
<v Speaker 4>and that is significant in and of itself, or again,

231
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:11.200
<v Speaker 4>am I crazy the fact that they're sort of like, oh,

232
00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:12.799
<v Speaker 4>by the way, you know, it's not just about the

233
00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.919
<v Speaker 4>drug boats, but also you know, these people with their oil,

234
00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:17.879
<v Speaker 4>we got to deal with that, and.

235
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:21.120
<v Speaker 5>You know, and and Trump doing his.

236
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:25.480
<v Speaker 4>I call it the I don't know if I should

237
00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:27.559
<v Speaker 4>say this with you on the show, but I will anyway.

238
00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:34.039
<v Speaker 4>The warped mister rogers, we need good neighbors, okay. Explanation

239
00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:37.919
<v Speaker 4>for why this needed to happen, this was essential, and

240
00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:40.960
<v Speaker 4>how this rose to the top of the list on

241
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:46.679
<v Speaker 4>priorities is almost as weird as them reinjecting the maybe

242
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:49.600
<v Speaker 4>we should also take over Greenland at some point. Real soon,

243
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:55.759
<v Speaker 4>you know, discussion talking point back into the political discussion

244
00:14:55.840 --> 00:14:59.120
<v Speaker 4>sphere publicly, you know, just this.

245
00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:00.440
<v Speaker 5>Week where we're to that.

246
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:02.000
<v Speaker 4>Oh by the way, you know, we're still looking at

247
00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:05.320
<v Speaker 4>take in Greenland, which almost seems like a threat if

248
00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:07.919
<v Speaker 4>we're willing to do this, and we're probably willing to

249
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:10.879
<v Speaker 4>do something over there, even though the discussion so far

250
00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:14.000
<v Speaker 4>has been we're looking to purchase it, you know. And

251
00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:17.039
<v Speaker 4>I keep using this we thing and whose we we

252
00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:21.039
<v Speaker 4>as again the administration the United States, because remember, like

253
00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:23.440
<v Speaker 4>it or not, this is what represents you and me

254
00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:25.960
<v Speaker 4>at the moment, So there is a we to it.

255
00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:27.600
<v Speaker 5>But I mean, tell me.

256
00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:31.200
<v Speaker 4>About that part of it, because it does seem different

257
00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:34.679
<v Speaker 4>in that way that we now have a spin kind

258
00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:37.720
<v Speaker 4>of being assembled in real time, and like I said,

259
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:41.200
<v Speaker 4>it feels like and maybe I'm crazy, but it feels

260
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:46.279
<v Speaker 4>like a WWF or WWE script that's being assembled with

261
00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:49.360
<v Speaker 4>the same very sort of shallow reasonings. You know, we

262
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:51.360
<v Speaker 4>need vengeance, so we need to go back at the

263
00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:54.240
<v Speaker 4>you know, the big boss man needs to pay for

264
00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:57.919
<v Speaker 4>his crimes. You know, Maduro needs to be taken for

265
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:00.679
<v Speaker 4>his crimes. Like why did they snatch up Hiss? That's

266
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:03.360
<v Speaker 4>another weird one. You know, is she the emmel dea

267
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:07.480
<v Speaker 4>Marcos in this? You know, in this equation, there's a

268
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:10.440
<v Speaker 4>lot of open questions here. But one thing that's not

269
00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:13.519
<v Speaker 4>open is that there's going to be a variety of

270
00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:17.759
<v Speaker 4>choices here on the buffet table to justify what we've

271
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:22.120
<v Speaker 4>seen happen here, which is not normal, even though it

272
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.919
<v Speaker 4>is a regular occurrence in our recent and even far

273
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:29.000
<v Speaker 4>further flung history. Uh.

274
00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:31.000
<v Speaker 5>But am I reading this wrong?

275
00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:33.639
<v Speaker 4>Or I mean it sounds confusing coming out of my

276
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:34.600
<v Speaker 4>mouth as I say it.

277
00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:37.200
<v Speaker 5>But I mean, am I confused? Or is this what

278
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:38.159
<v Speaker 5>I'm saying good?

279
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:43.360
<v Speaker 1>I think it's deeper than that, Chuck.

280
00:16:43.879 --> 00:16:48.320
<v Speaker 3>I think Venezuela represented a target of opportunity and went

281
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:51.080
<v Speaker 3>up on the priority list because of the oil. But

282
00:16:51.120 --> 00:16:53.480
<v Speaker 3>if you dig down at a deeper layer, what we

283
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:56.960
<v Speaker 3>have said, what the President has said, what the Secretary

284
00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:01.240
<v Speaker 3>of Data said, literally is that under this administration, we

285
00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:06.440
<v Speaker 3>have the authority to determine, especially in this hemisphere, that

286
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:11.079
<v Speaker 3>any particular nation that we see as a national security

287
00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:13.839
<v Speaker 3>threat to us, and in other words, any nation that

288
00:17:13.960 --> 00:17:18.480
<v Speaker 3>is not cooperative with us, we have the authority to

289
00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:23.079
<v Speaker 3>do regime change, or we have the authority to do deals.

290
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:25.880
<v Speaker 3>I won't even call it regime change because one of

291
00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:29.160
<v Speaker 3>the things that's going to emerge in Venezuela is we

292
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:34.240
<v Speaker 3>may not really be doing regime change. That may be

293
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:37.039
<v Speaker 3>a cover. There are a lot of people going around

294
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:43.680
<v Speaker 3>saying permit to Venezuela. Well, at this point in time,

295
00:17:43.799 --> 00:17:46.480
<v Speaker 3>that's not what we've done. As a matter of fact,

296
00:17:46.599 --> 00:17:50.559
<v Speaker 3>we turned down the woman that would have represented democratic government,

297
00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:55.240
<v Speaker 3>and we appear to be doing the oil deal with

298
00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:58.599
<v Speaker 3>the vice Predessident, who is a Maduro regime figure.

299
00:17:58.720 --> 00:18:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Now clearly she's going to do some cleaning.

300
00:18:01.160 --> 00:18:05.480
<v Speaker 3>House and make yourself look better. But the democratic condition

301
00:18:05.599 --> 00:18:07.960
<v Speaker 3>a person is not the person that we're dealing with.

302
00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Nor has anybody talked about new elections. So but let

303
00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:13.920
<v Speaker 3>me let me cut back to the chase. The point

304
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:18.720
<v Speaker 3>is we have established a statement that now as within

305
00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:23.000
<v Speaker 3>domestically everything is about national security.

306
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:24.759
<v Speaker 1>If the admin.

307
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:36.200
<v Speaker 3>H srince Cuba or Greenland or Columbia or whatever, then

308
00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:39.039
<v Speaker 3>if we have the right, we've declared ourselves just like

309
00:18:39.119 --> 00:18:44.680
<v Speaker 3>with an addition, our decision whether they want or don't want,

310
00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:52.000
<v Speaker 3>doesn't matter. And all right, sorry she had a warfare.

311
00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:52.799
<v Speaker 1>And I look.

312
00:18:55.640 --> 00:18:57.079
<v Speaker 5>Okay, I'll tell you what we're gonna do.

313
00:18:57.119 --> 00:18:59.480
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna tell us I'm gonna take one more crick

314
00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:02.000
<v Speaker 4>break here, and we're gonna come right back and continue

315
00:19:02.000 --> 00:19:04.119
<v Speaker 4>with this discussion with Larry stick around.

<v Speaker 1>You the effect effect?

351
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:54.799
<v Speaker 4>Okay, so hopefully we're back nice, live and loud, and

352
00:21:54.960 --> 00:21:57.519
<v Speaker 4>we've got a clearer connection now with Larry Hancock. And

353
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:00.839
<v Speaker 4>this is really important to be because I had asked

354
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:04.799
<v Speaker 4>the superficial question and Larry was getting into a deeper

355
00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:09.079
<v Speaker 4>and explaining the difference here and what we're looking at.

356
00:22:09.160 --> 00:22:10.319
<v Speaker 4>So please continue, Larry.

357
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:17.680
<v Speaker 3>Sure, Basically, to some extent, this is nothing new, and

358
00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:21.960
<v Speaker 3>we talked about that. But what most people aren't getting,

359
00:22:22.119 --> 00:22:25.759
<v Speaker 3>I think, is that we have returned to a position

360
00:22:25.920 --> 00:22:28.480
<v Speaker 3>which we had kind of left since back in the nineties.

361
00:22:29.079 --> 00:22:32.519
<v Speaker 3>We have under the current administration, we are making the

362
00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:36.640
<v Speaker 3>assertion that the United States has the right to change

363
00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:43.720
<v Speaker 3>any government that we feel is not cooperative, that we

364
00:22:43.880 --> 00:22:47.319
<v Speaker 3>feel might be a threat to our national security. And

365
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:51.000
<v Speaker 3>when I say not cooperative, they have resources that we need.

366
00:22:51.079 --> 00:22:55.759
<v Speaker 3>That could be Venezuela, it could be Greenland, they have whatever,

367
00:22:55.960 --> 00:22:58.880
<v Speaker 3>whatever it is, whatever we manage to come up with

368
00:22:59.119 --> 00:23:03.359
<v Speaker 3>and express our concern about, we gave ourselves the right

369
00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:04.160
<v Speaker 3>to do it. Now.

370
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:06.039
<v Speaker 1>It's not that we didn't do that before.

371
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:10.640
<v Speaker 3>I can quote statements from John Foster Dulles in the

372
00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:14.680
<v Speaker 3>fifties that literally say, you know, it doesn't matter if

373
00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:20.400
<v Speaker 3>there's a country out there that had domessed that elected

374
00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:26.279
<v Speaker 3>through standard democratic process, a government that we feel as dangerous.

375
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:29.519
<v Speaker 3>Maybe it's communists, Maybe that's kind of pastay now, but

376
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:34.799
<v Speaker 3>it's it's not a cooperative government. John Foster says, we

377
00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:39.480
<v Speaker 3>have every right to replace it. Henry Kissinger in the

378
00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:43.759
<v Speaker 3>seventies says the same thing. You know, it doesn't matter

379
00:23:44.440 --> 00:23:45.799
<v Speaker 3>how that government.

380
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:46.160
<v Speaker 1>Came to place.

381
00:23:46.279 --> 00:23:50.240
<v Speaker 3>It could be democratic, it could be Basically the fun

382
00:23:50.319 --> 00:24:02.440
<v Speaker 3>thing is tree go bad due to the irresponsibility of

383
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:03.079
<v Speaker 3>its own people.

384
00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:05.039
<v Speaker 5>Right.

385
00:24:05.240 --> 00:24:09.519
<v Speaker 4>So, we've seen this in any place from various South

386
00:24:09.519 --> 00:24:14.000
<v Speaker 4>American and Central American countries talk about Yeah, we've seen

387
00:24:14.039 --> 00:24:17.880
<v Speaker 4>it in Iraq even right where now our national security

388
00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:21.599
<v Speaker 4>is threatened by the Iraqi regime, and well they have

389
00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:25.240
<v Speaker 4>weapons of mass destruction, they're threatening us, so therefore there's

390
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:30.000
<v Speaker 4>our justification for going in. It's just really it's just

391
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:32.519
<v Speaker 4>kind of labeled a little differently, but it's more of

392
00:24:32.559 --> 00:24:32.880
<v Speaker 4>the same.

393
00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, it's absolutely more of the same. It's just.

394
00:24:42.759 --> 00:24:47.279
<v Speaker 3>Basically asserting that either your law or your your security

395
00:24:47.720 --> 00:24:50.559
<v Speaker 3>trumps everybody else. I mean, and it's your decision and

396
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:53.319
<v Speaker 3>you can do it because you've got the power to

397
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:57.640
<v Speaker 3>do it. That just say, we can do it because

398
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:00.319
<v Speaker 3>we have the power to do it. And we've been

399
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:01.039
<v Speaker 3>in that position.

400
00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:12.039
<v Speaker 1>This is part of the American tradition, like it or not, right,

401
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:16.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean, did we take Texas from Mexico? Yes?

402
00:25:16.279 --> 00:25:21.880
<v Speaker 3>Did we take the Philippines. We've done this before many times.

403
00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:23.839
<v Speaker 3>I think what is different about this.

404
00:25:24.119 --> 00:25:41.359
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of like before or in time we're favorable

405
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:41.680
<v Speaker 1>to us.

406
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.200
<v Speaker 3>This is really a spin on that because certainly we

407
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:49.039
<v Speaker 3>would have had the opportunity to do.

408
00:25:51.799 --> 00:25:55.200
<v Speaker 1>This with this lady who we helped to get the Nobel.

409
00:25:54.920 --> 00:25:58.599
<v Speaker 3>Prize, who was all in and who offered her party

410
00:25:58.680 --> 00:26:01.640
<v Speaker 3>and her supporters, and we're saying no, we're going with

411
00:26:01.799 --> 00:26:06.119
<v Speaker 3>the like the remnants of the current regime because they

412
00:26:06.200 --> 00:26:07.960
<v Speaker 3>actually control you know, we don't.

413
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:11.359
<v Speaker 1>This is shortcuts the whole deal. It's like, if.

414
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:14.480
<v Speaker 3>We can do a deal with the regime, we just

415
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:17.119
<v Speaker 3>have to get rid of the top guy, do a

416
00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:22.039
<v Speaker 3>deal and get what we want. So Maduro is out

417
00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:24.920
<v Speaker 3>and it looks like we're getting as the President said,

418
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:28.640
<v Speaker 3>we're getting. It actually only amounts to about three or

419
00:26:28.680 --> 00:26:31.960
<v Speaker 3>four days production as the best I can see of

420
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:34.160
<v Speaker 3>oil that we're going to sell. And this is the

421
00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:37.279
<v Speaker 3>fascinating thing. You could even this is sort of like

422
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:41.440
<v Speaker 3>plunder in the olden days. They're gonna it sounds like

423
00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:44.359
<v Speaker 3>we're going to pay for it at market price, and

424
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:46.400
<v Speaker 3>then we're going to sell it and take the money,

425
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:49.880
<v Speaker 3>just like we took the money money from the oil tankers,

426
00:26:50.519 --> 00:26:52.880
<v Speaker 3>and maybe we'll give it some of them back to

427
00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:54.839
<v Speaker 3>them in some form.

428
00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:59.799
<v Speaker 1>We don't know. But essentially we got what we wanted,

429
00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:02.480
<v Speaker 1>which was not just Maduro. Maduro is.

430
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:06.640
<v Speaker 3>This is a way a quick way to get you know,

431
00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:09.799
<v Speaker 3>the rendition was a quick way to get rid of him,

432
00:27:10.359 --> 00:27:14.440
<v Speaker 3>show our power and essentially do a deal and check

433
00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:17.400
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to give you the first the first take

434
00:27:17.519 --> 00:27:23.279
<v Speaker 3>on this, I've invented a new word. Before we had deniability,

435
00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:28.799
<v Speaker 3>now we have deal ability. With the current administration, it's

436
00:27:28.880 --> 00:27:33.640
<v Speaker 3>all about deals, it really doesn't, you know. It's our

437
00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:37.119
<v Speaker 3>interests come first, and we will do whatever we can to.

438
00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Cut the deal.

439
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:40.599
<v Speaker 3>It works for us, just as we thought. I do

440
00:27:40.720 --> 00:27:43.799
<v Speaker 3>think the President thought he was going to be able

441
00:27:43.920 --> 00:27:45.839
<v Speaker 3>to do a deal with Putin because he was putting

442
00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:49.839
<v Speaker 3>all sorts of economic advantages and investments.

443
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:51.559
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's the way we play it. You know,

444
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:57.720
<v Speaker 1>we're making a deal. It's good not to play. So

445
00:27:57.839 --> 00:28:03.519
<v Speaker 1>what did we do today? Eight? Even though Russia said

446
00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:04.839
<v Speaker 1>this is.

447
00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:08.759
<v Speaker 3>Our tanker, we have authority over it, we officially legally

448
00:28:09.119 --> 00:28:13.000
<v Speaker 3>declare and protest that do not stop it, and they

449
00:28:13.079 --> 00:28:13.599
<v Speaker 3>sent us.

450
00:28:15.960 --> 00:28:17.920
<v Speaker 1>So we got in ahead and took it.

451
00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:20.039
<v Speaker 7>Right.

452
00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:23.720
<v Speaker 5>Well, the strange Yeah, the strange thing.

453
00:28:24.279 --> 00:28:26.319
<v Speaker 1>That's a pretty big slap in the face from somebody

454
00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:27.440
<v Speaker 1>who was just an Alaska.

455
00:28:27.960 --> 00:28:31.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well exactly and kind of not exactly the thing

456
00:28:31.519 --> 00:28:34.039
<v Speaker 4>you might want a time right along with trying.

457
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:37.480
<v Speaker 5>To cut a deal again with Ukraine. Oh, by the way,

458
00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:38.400
<v Speaker 5>that's still happening.

459
00:28:38.599 --> 00:28:41.960
<v Speaker 4>You know, that's still a war in progress, even though

460
00:28:42.119 --> 00:28:43.759
<v Speaker 4>they said they were close to a deal.

461
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:45.559
<v Speaker 5>Seems like a.

462
00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:48.240
<v Speaker 4>Bad time to be aggravating putin when you've got them

463
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:49.079
<v Speaker 4>at the table for that.

464
00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:53.839
<v Speaker 5>But let's put that aside, you know, the actual mechanical deal.

465
00:28:54.079 --> 00:28:57.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that is propaganda, right, There's no deal at least

466
00:28:57.759 --> 00:28:59.839
<v Speaker 3>not even in the card, so it wasn't a factor.

467
00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:00.480
<v Speaker 1>No.

468
00:29:01.000 --> 00:29:03.359
<v Speaker 4>Well see, that's the thing though, is if you put

469
00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:05.960
<v Speaker 4>it out there as something that's happening, whether it is

470
00:29:06.119 --> 00:29:08.920
<v Speaker 4>or not, you know, it looks pretty bad strategically.

471
00:29:09.920 --> 00:29:11.599
<v Speaker 5>And here's another weird part about this.

472
00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:17.039
<v Speaker 4>The United States government is not going to do this,

473
00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:20.119
<v Speaker 4>you know when it comes to the oil and making

474
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:23.119
<v Speaker 4>this marketable and everything else. Right, this is going to

475
00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:27.960
<v Speaker 4>require a private enterprise of some type to deal with this. So,

476
00:29:28.519 --> 00:29:32.119
<v Speaker 4>you know, I'm thinking, just because it makes the most sense,

477
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:36.920
<v Speaker 4>that the previously active assets of Exon Mobil would be

478
00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:40.960
<v Speaker 4>the ones that have the you know, the easiest access.

479
00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:45.039
<v Speaker 4>They've already got inroads with Venezuela. They've already got connections

480
00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:49.759
<v Speaker 4>there because Exon Mobile up until what about fifteen years ago,

481
00:29:50.359 --> 00:29:52.799
<v Speaker 4>dealt very heavily with Venezuela.

482
00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:54.480
<v Speaker 5>Publicly.

483
00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:57.440
<v Speaker 4>So is this, you know, a deal being made on

484
00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:01.039
<v Speaker 4>behalf of the United States, but through the arm of

485
00:30:01.319 --> 00:30:05.440
<v Speaker 4>Exxon Mobile. And doesn't that now make le you know,

486
00:30:05.599 --> 00:30:08.359
<v Speaker 4>the Rex Tillerson time at the State Department look a

487
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:12.720
<v Speaker 4>lot more interesting, you know, because here we go, You're

488
00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:14.960
<v Speaker 4>going to actually need people to handle this and put

489
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:17.160
<v Speaker 4>it into the market, right, So I mean, it's going

490
00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:19.960
<v Speaker 4>to have to be handled by somebody who does this,

491
00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:22.960
<v Speaker 4>and as far as I know, the Navy or the

492
00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:25.359
<v Speaker 4>Air Force doesn't have refineries.

493
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:32.640
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, go ahead, maybe or maybe not.

494
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:35.279
<v Speaker 3>At first it kind of looked like that, and it

495
00:30:35.400 --> 00:30:37.480
<v Speaker 3>looked like Chevron was going to be the big player.

496
00:30:38.200 --> 00:30:42.839
<v Speaker 3>But the oil companies themselves are pretty smart. And the

497
00:30:42.920 --> 00:30:55.160
<v Speaker 3>oil companies the kind of equipment and machinery, intechnician it's

498
00:30:55.279 --> 00:31:01.960
<v Speaker 3>just heavy oil since it was nationalized. So you would

499
00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:05.039
<v Speaker 3>be asking, here's one of the things when you do

500
00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:07.400
<v Speaker 3>regime change or whenever you do a deal like this,

501
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:10.599
<v Speaker 3>it's sort of like how long is it going to last?

502
00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Is there going to be?

503
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:18.079
<v Speaker 3>It have been through this many times, and they're pretty smart.

504
00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:21.000
<v Speaker 3>So what I'm seeing so far is the oil companies

505
00:31:21.039 --> 00:31:23.920
<v Speaker 3>are pushing back and saying we'd love to have the oil,

506
00:31:24.799 --> 00:31:28.279
<v Speaker 3>but capital investment, you know, is the US government pay

507
00:31:28.400 --> 00:31:28.559
<v Speaker 3>for that.

508
00:31:29.119 --> 00:31:32.039
<v Speaker 1>That would be one possibility.

509
00:31:32.799 --> 00:31:37.079
<v Speaker 3>Most people don't realize that the President has already used

510
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:41.759
<v Speaker 3>US money to buy into three or four private companies

511
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:45.279
<v Speaker 3>that the US now has a stake in in areas

512
00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:50.920
<v Speaker 3>having to do with strategic minerals and technology. The US

513
00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:55.079
<v Speaker 3>is investing and nobody's tracking it. Absolutely, we're we're putting

514
00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:58.240
<v Speaker 3>money into those companies. How that's going to work, how

515
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:01.759
<v Speaker 3>the money is going to be tracked, where the profits

516
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:05.519
<v Speaker 3>go to, totally not transparent. So it could be very

517
00:32:05.640 --> 00:32:10.079
<v Speaker 3>possible that he would create another oil consortium. But now

518
00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:12.880
<v Speaker 3>it looks like it may have come up with even

519
00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:18.240
<v Speaker 3>a brighter approach because if right now the US to

520
00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:25.079
<v Speaker 3>it's not he can do a deal. Whether he just

521
00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:31.200
<v Speaker 3>think gets a regular shipment every month or so if

522
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:35.799
<v Speaker 3>several days World carriers or you know, Chevron oil carriers

523
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:39.920
<v Speaker 3>or whatever, what the what the Venezuelans produce it, we

524
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:42.200
<v Speaker 3>don't care if they you know, it's free and clear.

525
00:32:43.240 --> 00:32:46.000
<v Speaker 3>When it gets on the water, we pay. That's no

526
00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:49.319
<v Speaker 3>investment required with that night. So it may end up

527
00:32:49.359 --> 00:32:55.240
<v Speaker 3>being come some about how things are going to work,

528
00:32:55.400 --> 00:33:00.759
<v Speaker 3>or are kind of like his early remark, they all

529
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:03.759
<v Speaker 3>compans are pretty sharp about the right.

530
00:33:03.920 --> 00:33:06.359
<v Speaker 5>Now, do me a favor. Mute up again and hang

531
00:33:06.400 --> 00:33:08.039
<v Speaker 5>out for a second. You do me a favor.

532
00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:10.359
<v Speaker 4>Mute up, Mute up, and hang out for a second again,

533
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:13.960
<v Speaker 4>try and build up compression, because there is yet one

534
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:16.680
<v Speaker 4>more element here that I think, you know, I would

535
00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:20.200
<v Speaker 4>love to hear you address, because nobody in their reporting

536
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:24.440
<v Speaker 4>or alleged analysis is addressing this at all. And that

537
00:33:24.839 --> 00:33:28.160
<v Speaker 4>is the precious metals element of this. Because what I

538
00:33:28.279 --> 00:33:31.079
<v Speaker 4>noted is they also said, you know, not only are

539
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:32.960
<v Speaker 4>we going to be able to capture this, but there's

540
00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:36.039
<v Speaker 4>going to be a deal for like precious metals in general,

541
00:33:36.839 --> 00:33:40.960
<v Speaker 4>almost like not described, not quantified in any way, shape

542
00:33:41.039 --> 00:33:41.359
<v Speaker 4>or form.

543
00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:43.880
<v Speaker 5>But you know some precious metals are probably in this

544
00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:46.759
<v Speaker 5>equation too, but pay no attention to that. That is

545
00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:50.920
<v Speaker 5>a big deal that no one is going to track

546
00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:51.920
<v Speaker 5>or quantify.

547
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:54.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, that's going to be like the all cash

548
00:33:54.079 --> 00:33:57.160
<v Speaker 4>part of this business, where you know, no one is

549
00:33:57.240 --> 00:34:01.599
<v Speaker 4>going to be able to, you know, properly be able

550
00:34:01.720 --> 00:34:05.559
<v Speaker 4>to do an audit on this in the aftermath of

551
00:34:05.680 --> 00:34:08.639
<v Speaker 4>the deal and the transaction. I think there's a lot

552
00:34:08.679 --> 00:34:12.000
<v Speaker 4>of precious metals here that are gonna get moved because

553
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:15.880
<v Speaker 4>Venezuela is also rich in some of those resources, not

554
00:34:16.039 --> 00:34:19.239
<v Speaker 4>all of them, but they also have you know, pretty

555
00:34:19.280 --> 00:34:23.079
<v Speaker 4>good mineral riches in again, precious precious metals.

556
00:34:24.400 --> 00:34:27.559
<v Speaker 5>So on top of the oil, we have the precious.

557
00:34:27.159 --> 00:34:29.119
<v Speaker 4>Metals that I think are gonna be sort of ad

558
00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:32.599
<v Speaker 4>pay no attention to that, that's incidental, but I mean

559
00:34:32.679 --> 00:34:36.719
<v Speaker 4>that's gonna be a lot of well a high number,

560
00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:39.400
<v Speaker 4>a good amount of what this transaction might be made

561
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:42.440
<v Speaker 4>of too, where the oil is almost a cover for that,

562
00:34:42.679 --> 00:34:46.039
<v Speaker 4>I'm thinking because the fact that nobody's even asking the

563
00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:49.039
<v Speaker 4>question of how much what are we looking at here?

564
00:34:49.159 --> 00:34:52.440
<v Speaker 4>What is the potential for it? You know, what is

565
00:34:52.480 --> 00:34:54.880
<v Speaker 4>the exchange going to be? Like are the Venezuelan people

566
00:34:54.960 --> 00:34:58.840
<v Speaker 4>gonna gain anything from those precious metals? Like zero questions

567
00:34:58.880 --> 00:35:02.360
<v Speaker 4>are being asked about precious metals. I mean, have you

568
00:35:02.480 --> 00:35:04.320
<v Speaker 4>noted that as well? That it's sort of like, yeah,

569
00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:06.199
<v Speaker 4>this might come along with it, but you know, pay

570
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:09.159
<v Speaker 4>no attention to any of the details. This is about

571
00:35:09.199 --> 00:35:12.320
<v Speaker 4>oil and the drugs, And pretty soon I think they'll

572
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:15.280
<v Speaker 4>forget to even mention the drugs because I think that

573
00:35:15.440 --> 00:35:17.599
<v Speaker 4>was a smoke screen to begin with. That makes no

574
00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:21.800
<v Speaker 4>sense to me that Venezuela is a high priority drug trafficker.

575
00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:24.440
<v Speaker 4>I mean, if you were worried about national security and

576
00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:27.719
<v Speaker 4>high levels of drug trafficking, why wouldn't it be, even

577
00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:30.679
<v Speaker 4>according to their own propaganda, that we were focusing on

578
00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:35.840
<v Speaker 4>places like Mexico directly because there you have a narco state,

579
00:35:36.519 --> 00:35:39.800
<v Speaker 4>you know, happening all the time. You have officials of

580
00:35:39.840 --> 00:35:43.880
<v Speaker 4>all sorts from the government literally being assassinated, you know,

581
00:35:44.119 --> 00:35:48.840
<v Speaker 4>constantly in Mexico. There is a power struggle between what

582
00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:51.519
<v Speaker 4>some people would call narco terrorists and other people would

583
00:35:51.559 --> 00:35:55.480
<v Speaker 4>call the cartels. That is happening in real time constantly

584
00:35:56.159 --> 00:36:00.519
<v Speaker 4>in a nation state that borders us. Talking about a

585
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:04.159
<v Speaker 4>national security issue, you know, well beyond the guys coming

586
00:36:04.199 --> 00:36:08.159
<v Speaker 4>in to take your jobs, you got a serious issue

587
00:36:08.199 --> 00:36:13.320
<v Speaker 4>here right on the border. That's not the priority Venezuela is. Well, why,

588
00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:18.119
<v Speaker 4>I guess because you know there's oil and oh, precious metals,

589
00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:20.920
<v Speaker 4>but pay no attention to that. It seems to me

590
00:36:21.000 --> 00:36:23.840
<v Speaker 4>as though this is just a I mean, I hate

591
00:36:23.880 --> 00:36:25.880
<v Speaker 4>to put it this way, but it looks to me

592
00:36:26.119 --> 00:36:30.679
<v Speaker 4>like just a grab for resources that is being justified

593
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:35.679
<v Speaker 4>in you know, like reverse engineering the justification afterwards where

594
00:36:35.679 --> 00:36:37.320
<v Speaker 4>they tried to cut a deal. They couldn't get the

595
00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:40.239
<v Speaker 4>right deal. So now they used a bit of pressure

596
00:36:40.320 --> 00:36:44.159
<v Speaker 4>and renditioned this guy brought them here on an indictment,

597
00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:47.679
<v Speaker 4>you know, in a foreign land, which again is not unusual,

598
00:36:48.000 --> 00:36:50.599
<v Speaker 4>but is also allegedly not the way we're supposed to

599
00:36:50.599 --> 00:36:55.400
<v Speaker 4>conduct business, right, and yet here we are. What is

600
00:36:55.480 --> 00:37:00.960
<v Speaker 4>your thoughts on these seemingly like ignored or under analyzed

601
00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:04.039
<v Speaker 4>aspect of this being the precious metals and minerals and such.

602
00:37:07.480 --> 00:37:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I get it again, to get back to the core,

603
00:37:11.079 --> 00:37:11.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's different.

604
00:37:12.039 --> 00:37:15.960
<v Speaker 3>We're talking about precious metals on the order of copper,

605
00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:21.360
<v Speaker 3>gold medals. We're not talking about the rare metals minerals

606
00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:25.000
<v Speaker 3>that are that we need in semiconductors and electronics, two

607
00:37:25.039 --> 00:37:29.480
<v Speaker 3>different things. So for Venezuela, it truly would be metals. Okay,

608
00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:32.719
<v Speaker 3>But this is very much in line with some other

609
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:36.519
<v Speaker 3>things that are happening in the administration, for example, the

610
00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:44.039
<v Speaker 3>Dodge fiasco, where it happened there's no tracking, there's no reporting.

611
00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:47.280
<v Speaker 1>You call back and say, well, what did that actually save.

612
00:37:47.199 --> 00:37:50.039
<v Speaker 3>And everybody goes, well, we don't know because those people

613
00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:50.679
<v Speaker 3>are all gone.

614
00:37:53.559 --> 00:37:55.280
<v Speaker 1>At the beginning of the administration.

615
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:59.760
<v Speaker 3>The President talked about a new office that was going

616
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:03.039
<v Speaker 3>to be set up to track all of the teriffs

617
00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:06.800
<v Speaker 3>that were being collected, how those were being distributed, and

618
00:38:06.920 --> 00:38:09.639
<v Speaker 3>to show the benefits of that. That office has not

619
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:13.199
<v Speaker 3>been established yet, just he didn't even set it up yet.

620
00:38:14.159 --> 00:38:17.719
<v Speaker 3>As I said before, there are already several major government

621
00:38:17.800 --> 00:38:21.320
<v Speaker 3>investments in different areas that nobody knows how they're going

622
00:38:21.360 --> 00:38:24.480
<v Speaker 3>to be tracked. He just signed an executive order saying

623
00:38:24.559 --> 00:38:27.039
<v Speaker 3>the money would be spent and we would buy into

624
00:38:27.119 --> 00:38:27.760
<v Speaker 3>those companies.

625
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:29.519
<v Speaker 1>What do we buy into?

626
00:38:29.639 --> 00:38:34.119
<v Speaker 3>What percents the taxpayer getting. I've seen nothing about those deals,

627
00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:37.599
<v Speaker 3>So I would say this is going to what rule

628
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:40.239
<v Speaker 3>really if we face the facts and you can either

629
00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:41.960
<v Speaker 3>like it or love it, because I know there's some

630
00:38:42.039 --> 00:38:43.039
<v Speaker 3>people who are going to love it.

631
00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:48.639
<v Speaker 1>We are back to gun diplomacy. We basically, especially in

632
00:38:48.719 --> 00:38:50.239
<v Speaker 1>this hemisphere.

633
00:38:50.199 --> 00:38:53.840
<v Speaker 3>Literally saying we have the power and we're willing to

634
00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:59.400
<v Speaker 3>use it. At Venezuela to Columbia, to everybody like, if

635
00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:02.360
<v Speaker 3>you don't give us what we want, do the deals

636
00:39:02.440 --> 00:39:04.239
<v Speaker 3>we want, be supportive.

637
00:39:04.360 --> 00:39:05.440
<v Speaker 1>We don't care how you do it.

638
00:39:05.559 --> 00:39:07.679
<v Speaker 3>It could be behind us on screens, it can be

639
00:39:07.760 --> 00:39:10.199
<v Speaker 3>in front We just want to do the deals that

640
00:39:10.320 --> 00:39:12.360
<v Speaker 3>we want to do, and if we can.

641
00:39:12.519 --> 00:39:14.800
<v Speaker 1>You're good. Otherwise we send the gunboats in.

642
00:39:14.960 --> 00:39:19.000
<v Speaker 3>That's how we played the agriculture game a century ago.

643
00:39:19.480 --> 00:39:23.480
<v Speaker 3>Now we're playing it for oil metals. The only variant

644
00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:27.400
<v Speaker 3>that's going to be fascinating is Ruvio obviously wants to

645
00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:28.760
<v Speaker 3>take out the Castro regime.

646
00:39:29.800 --> 00:39:32.559
<v Speaker 1>What in the world excuse we're going to find to

647
00:39:32.679 --> 00:39:35.400
<v Speaker 1>do that, I don't know, but clearly he wants to

648
00:39:35.519 --> 00:39:35.719
<v Speaker 1>do it.

649
00:39:35.960 --> 00:39:39.239
<v Speaker 3>But to cut to the chase, we've just moved back

650
00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:42.920
<v Speaker 3>into a model that we had in the eighteen hundreds,

651
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:45.760
<v Speaker 3>and we were good with it. I mean, I can

652
00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:50.840
<v Speaker 3>show you the legislators, the correspondence, the articles. You know,

653
00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:54.360
<v Speaker 3>if somebody raises a fuss with one of our companies

654
00:39:54.960 --> 00:39:58.800
<v Speaker 3>and one of our deals will take them out with

655
00:39:58.960 --> 00:40:00.440
<v Speaker 3>however much forces need it.

656
00:40:00.880 --> 00:40:04.440
<v Speaker 4>Right and yeah, in the first half of the why

657
00:40:04.719 --> 00:40:07.039
<v Speaker 4>really quickly, in the first half of the twentieth century,

658
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:12.440
<v Speaker 4>we also dealt with this where gunboat diplomacy effectively was

659
00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:17.079
<v Speaker 4>being you know, transacted, let's say, on behalf of the

660
00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:21.159
<v Speaker 4>fruit companies and the sugar companies in the same area

661
00:40:21.199 --> 00:40:24.559
<v Speaker 4>of the world, right, you know, it isn't just about

662
00:40:24.920 --> 00:40:28.000
<v Speaker 4>drugs and importation that way. I mean, you're talking about

663
00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:30.199
<v Speaker 4>stuff like that. I mean, this is literally part of

664
00:40:30.239 --> 00:40:34.840
<v Speaker 4>what fueled you know, various Cuban upheavals and various other

665
00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:38.599
<v Speaker 4>South and Central American upheavals again in the first half

666
00:40:38.639 --> 00:40:41.800
<v Speaker 4>of the twentieth century, where you have you know, sugar

667
00:40:41.880 --> 00:40:45.400
<v Speaker 4>companies and fruit companies. I mean literally, this is why

668
00:40:46.280 --> 00:40:47.519
<v Speaker 4>military action was taken.

669
00:40:48.239 --> 00:40:49.719
<v Speaker 5>And we saw that, I mean.

670
00:40:50.440 --> 00:40:53.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and we played it with everybody. We played it

671
00:40:53.880 --> 00:40:59.920
<v Speaker 3>in Cuba. Everybody so care really what your politics are.

672
00:41:00.239 --> 00:41:02.719
<v Speaker 3>We care what our degree of influence is.

673
00:41:03.559 --> 00:41:04.119
<v Speaker 1>In Cuba.

674
00:41:04.639 --> 00:41:09.960
<v Speaker 3>Everybody knew that Batista was corrupt, like Noriego, like Maduro.

675
00:41:10.559 --> 00:41:15.000
<v Speaker 1>He's corrupt, you know, everybody knows that. And he gets

676
00:41:15.039 --> 00:41:15.719
<v Speaker 1>to the point.

677
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:19.000
<v Speaker 3>Where his own people are so upset about it that

678
00:41:19.079 --> 00:41:22.400
<v Speaker 3>he's going to change. Well, we sent a senior level

679
00:41:22.480 --> 00:41:28.639
<v Speaker 3>presidential advisor down to talk with him, not to say

680
00:41:28.719 --> 00:41:31.599
<v Speaker 3>that he should just leave, to tell him who he

681
00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:34.840
<v Speaker 3>needed to hand off power to, who we knew would

682
00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:37.760
<v Speaker 3>cooperate with us, so we could essentially, you can clean

683
00:41:37.880 --> 00:41:39.239
<v Speaker 3>house and you can do a reset.

684
00:41:39.679 --> 00:41:41.119
<v Speaker 1>Everybody will be happy, and.

685
00:41:41.239 --> 00:41:44.920
<v Speaker 3>This is our guy, you know, so we're not the

686
00:41:45.519 --> 00:41:48.960
<v Speaker 3>thought I you know, it would it would be interesting

687
00:41:49.039 --> 00:41:52.920
<v Speaker 3>to think of us as, you know, the policeman.

688
00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:56.960
<v Speaker 1>For the world. Know that that's not it in reality.

689
00:41:57.239 --> 00:42:00.639
<v Speaker 3>You know, it would from one perspective, it would be okay,

690
00:42:00.639 --> 00:42:02.320
<v Speaker 3>if you want to use all that power, go be

691
00:42:02.440 --> 00:42:02.960
<v Speaker 3>the policeman.

692
00:42:03.280 --> 00:42:06.159
<v Speaker 1>We're not policemen for the world. We're just policing the world.

693
00:42:06.920 --> 00:42:13.039
<v Speaker 3>But the reality is that we are just simply putting

694
00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:16.559
<v Speaker 3>our interest first. And you have to be honest about

695
00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:19.119
<v Speaker 3>that and say that a great percentage of.

696
00:42:19.159 --> 00:42:22.679
<v Speaker 1>Our population are quite happy with that. Well, you know,

697
00:42:23.239 --> 00:42:24.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to say it's a majority.

698
00:42:25.039 --> 00:42:28.000
<v Speaker 3>It's like, if it's making us money and we're doing good,

699
00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:32.119
<v Speaker 3>that's you know, if it was good for general motors,

700
00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:33.280
<v Speaker 3>it was good for the US.

701
00:42:33.440 --> 00:42:35.239
<v Speaker 1>That's a fifty slogan, right, And.

702
00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:39.920
<v Speaker 4>What we have here is rhetoric that basically says, when

703
00:42:39.960 --> 00:42:44.119
<v Speaker 4>you take away all the coded language and the propaganda

704
00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:47.320
<v Speaker 4>of pro America raw Rah, when you take it away,

705
00:42:47.400 --> 00:42:50.000
<v Speaker 4>what it comes down to is, these are the policy

706
00:42:50.280 --> 00:42:55.559
<v Speaker 4>enforcing security details for corporate America that are going to

707
00:42:55.639 --> 00:42:58.280
<v Speaker 4>go down and make sure that the deals get done

708
00:42:58.480 --> 00:43:00.679
<v Speaker 4>so the corporate America continue used to thrive.

709
00:43:01.400 --> 00:43:03.119
<v Speaker 5>This is what the bottom line is.

710
00:43:03.199 --> 00:43:05.119
<v Speaker 4>And like I said, that was with the sugar companies,

711
00:43:05.119 --> 00:43:07.920
<v Speaker 4>that was with the fruit companies, so on and so forth.

712
00:43:08.400 --> 00:43:11.400
<v Speaker 4>This is literally the model that we had again you know,

713
00:43:11.639 --> 00:43:14.440
<v Speaker 4>about one hundred years ago. Forget about the eighteen hundreds,

714
00:43:14.800 --> 00:43:15.840
<v Speaker 4>but one hundred years ago.

715
00:43:16.760 --> 00:43:17.159
<v Speaker 5>Of course.

716
00:43:17.440 --> 00:43:20.679
<v Speaker 4>This is almost the reason why you saw people like

717
00:43:20.760 --> 00:43:23.639
<v Speaker 4>George de Morrinshield's trying to get involved with Haiti and

718
00:43:24.000 --> 00:43:27.119
<v Speaker 4>you know, jute farms and things like this, because he

719
00:43:27.239 --> 00:43:30.000
<v Speaker 4>thought maybe that was a future, you know, something that

720
00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:32.119
<v Speaker 4>was going to be backed up by the US government.

721
00:43:32.599 --> 00:43:36.159
<v Speaker 4>And certainly we backed up Batista, you know before Castro

722
00:43:36.360 --> 00:43:41.199
<v Speaker 4>came in, because he did what corporate America wanted. Also

723
00:43:41.519 --> 00:43:44.440
<v Speaker 4>just so happened to do what the mob wanted regarding

724
00:43:44.480 --> 00:43:47.360
<v Speaker 4>casinos and stuff. But it was, you know, open season.

725
00:43:47.440 --> 00:43:49.679
<v Speaker 4>It was any business is good, I don't care. We'll

726
00:43:49.679 --> 00:43:52.719
<v Speaker 4>do business with everybody. Is the way Batista was. As

727
00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:54.960
<v Speaker 4>long as his pockets got lined, it was all good.

728
00:43:56.440 --> 00:43:59.239
<v Speaker 4>And what we're trying to do now is put more

729
00:43:59.320 --> 00:44:03.000
<v Speaker 4>Batista's place. Is what it looks like to me, except

730
00:44:03.039 --> 00:44:05.559
<v Speaker 4>now in Venezuela and anywhere else that it looks like

731
00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:09.039
<v Speaker 4>it would be advantageous to turn it around for or

732
00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:12.559
<v Speaker 4>on behalf of corporate America Or am I misreading.

733
00:44:12.119 --> 00:44:12.880
<v Speaker 5>That, Larry.

734
00:44:15.159 --> 00:44:19.159
<v Speaker 1>Now? I think and one of the no, I don't

735
00:44:19.199 --> 00:44:20.039
<v Speaker 1>think that's mystery.

736
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:24.599
<v Speaker 3>The almost wish it was okay, because you know, there

737
00:44:24.639 --> 00:44:27.039
<v Speaker 3>were periods of time when we like to view ourselves

738
00:44:27.039 --> 00:44:32.000
<v Speaker 3>as ethical and moral, and we're replacing dictatorships with democracies, right,

739
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:33.480
<v Speaker 3>we're feeling good about that.

740
00:44:33.840 --> 00:44:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Right, But if you go back and look at the reality,

741
00:44:36.800 --> 00:44:38.559
<v Speaker 1>you don't look at what people say, you look at

742
00:44:38.599 --> 00:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>what they do.

743
00:44:39.199 --> 00:44:45.559
<v Speaker 3>I can take you back to Guatemala, Nicaragua, Brazil, Argentina.

744
00:44:46.840 --> 00:44:51.960
<v Speaker 3>In many instances we helped overthrow regime and we work

745
00:44:52.039 --> 00:44:56.159
<v Speaker 3>with surrogates, you know, democratic you know local people that

746
00:44:56.280 --> 00:44:59.960
<v Speaker 3>were progressive, democratic, wanted a different regime. Okay, they would

747
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:03.199
<v Speaker 3>come into power, they would stay in power for three years,

748
00:45:03.320 --> 00:45:06.599
<v Speaker 3>four years, whatever, and then there would be an ultra

749
00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:10.599
<v Speaker 3>right revolution against them, and usually led by the military.

750
00:45:10.559 --> 00:45:12.239
<v Speaker 1>And the military would take over.

751
00:45:13.360 --> 00:45:15.639
<v Speaker 3>And you would say to yourself, well, self, if we

752
00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:18.559
<v Speaker 3>were here for the democracy, certainly we're going to try

753
00:45:18.599 --> 00:45:21.960
<v Speaker 3>to get rid of that military. Military. No, No, because

754
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:25.559
<v Speaker 3>the military always loved to work with us. They would

755
00:45:25.639 --> 00:45:29.119
<v Speaker 3>deal with us, and so we might we might create

756
00:45:29.920 --> 00:45:34.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, a democratic revolution and put a democracy in power.

757
00:45:34.440 --> 00:45:39.159
<v Speaker 3>But we never sustained the democracies we supported, as in

758
00:45:39.280 --> 00:45:43.400
<v Speaker 3>Brazil and several we supported the generals and the military

759
00:45:43.840 --> 00:45:48.119
<v Speaker 3>and the regimes that would cooperate. We I can't think

760
00:45:48.199 --> 00:45:52.800
<v Speaker 3>of any instance when we actually other than you could

761
00:45:52.840 --> 00:45:54.639
<v Speaker 3>say in Cuba, but they were communists.

762
00:45:54.679 --> 00:45:57.519
<v Speaker 1>That's another story, you know, where we actually.

763
00:45:59.000 --> 00:46:04.119
<v Speaker 3>Spent lots of time, having money and effort in and said, okay, see, Ia,

764
00:46:04.760 --> 00:46:08.280
<v Speaker 3>there's a hunter in control of the country and they're

765
00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:12.000
<v Speaker 3>corrupt and they're doing bad deals, but we're selling them weapons.

766
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:15.159
<v Speaker 1>I want you to go overthrow them. I don't think

767
00:46:15.239 --> 00:46:16.280
<v Speaker 1>we ever said that.

768
00:46:18.199 --> 00:46:20.840
<v Speaker 4>So basically, what happens here is that the will and

769
00:46:20.920 --> 00:46:24.519
<v Speaker 4>well being of the people of those countries is really coincidental.

770
00:46:24.559 --> 00:46:27.159
<v Speaker 4>If it so happens that we support it so long

771
00:46:27.280 --> 00:46:30.199
<v Speaker 4>as our people are in command and in control, so

772
00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:32.079
<v Speaker 4>that we've got the right people to make deals with

773
00:46:32.599 --> 00:46:37.800
<v Speaker 4>for their resources and their well their resources, you know,

774
00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:40.559
<v Speaker 4>And that's it. That's the bottom line, and it's just

775
00:46:40.679 --> 00:46:44.239
<v Speaker 4>that clear. Anyway, I urge everybody go over to you know,

776
00:46:44.360 --> 00:46:47.159
<v Speaker 4>the the WordPress site for Larry Hancock, which the link

777
00:46:47.199 --> 00:46:50.239
<v Speaker 4>will be in the show notes here and follow up

778
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:52.599
<v Speaker 4>on this. I have a feeling Larry that you and

779
00:46:52.679 --> 00:46:55.719
<v Speaker 4>I will get together again in two weeks and have

780
00:46:55.840 --> 00:46:59.920
<v Speaker 4>a continuation of this discussion. But outside of the fact

781
00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:02.159
<v Speaker 4>that now we have what did you call it now?

782
00:47:02.199 --> 00:47:06.679
<v Speaker 4>It's not deniability, it's deal ability, So we have plausible

783
00:47:07.239 --> 00:47:11.360
<v Speaker 4>plausible deal ability is the new term. But outside of

784
00:47:11.480 --> 00:47:15.480
<v Speaker 4>plausible deal ability, Larry, what else is there to really,

785
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:19.800
<v Speaker 4>you know, put here as a punctuation on this discussion tonight,

786
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:22.800
<v Speaker 4>because plausible deal ability is a hell of a thing.

787
00:47:23.400 --> 00:47:25.679
<v Speaker 4>But beyond that, is there anything else to add?

788
00:47:27.719 --> 00:47:30.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think there's another way to judge this. I

789
00:47:30.320 --> 00:47:32.639
<v Speaker 3>think a step back, and that really kind of wraps

790
00:47:32.679 --> 00:47:38.199
<v Speaker 3>it up. For decades and decades and decades, we had

791
00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:42.880
<v Speaker 3>a continual, essentially battle between the State Department and the CIA,

792
00:47:43.559 --> 00:47:45.360
<v Speaker 3>where the State Department in the military.

793
00:47:45.480 --> 00:47:48.400
<v Speaker 1>For those of us who went through Vietnam, you know.

794
00:47:48.440 --> 00:47:51.199
<v Speaker 3>There was always a battle but what the State Department

795
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:54.119
<v Speaker 3>wanted to do because they were basically following a local

796
00:47:54.400 --> 00:47:57.920
<v Speaker 3>national charter like what's best for the nation, and they

797
00:47:58.000 --> 00:47:59.800
<v Speaker 3>got into constant fights.

798
00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:02.679
<v Speaker 1>With state with military, state with CIA.

799
00:48:02.880 --> 00:48:05.920
<v Speaker 3>That was just The interesting thing is, now that's not

800
00:48:06.039 --> 00:48:09.119
<v Speaker 3>going to happen because if you look at this, you know,

801
00:48:09.440 --> 00:48:10.320
<v Speaker 3>look at our.

802
00:48:11.800 --> 00:48:14.599
<v Speaker 1>Mister Rubio, he's all for this.

803
00:48:15.079 --> 00:48:17.599
<v Speaker 3>So the good news, I guess at least, is finally

804
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:21.519
<v Speaker 3>we got State Department lined up with the military and

805
00:48:21.599 --> 00:48:24.360
<v Speaker 3>the CIA and everybody's on the same page.

806
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:28.760
<v Speaker 1>Except when he goes up and say that positively enough, you.

807
00:48:28.840 --> 00:48:31.960
<v Speaker 4>Did, you said it perfectly positively. And the only thing

808
00:48:32.039 --> 00:48:34.719
<v Speaker 4>that's confusing is that he goes on Meet the Press

809
00:48:35.000 --> 00:48:38.480
<v Speaker 4>on Sunday and they straight out asked him because you know,

810
00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:42.760
<v Speaker 4>the very simple explanation of we're now going to run Venezuela.

811
00:48:43.320 --> 00:48:46.239
<v Speaker 4>They basically went and said, because Trump had implied that

812
00:48:46.360 --> 00:48:48.880
<v Speaker 4>it would be Rubio and all those State Department people

813
00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:51.039
<v Speaker 4>that would be in charge of Venezuela from now on

814
00:48:52.280 --> 00:48:54.480
<v Speaker 4>on Meet the Press, they basically said, so are you

815
00:48:54.760 --> 00:48:58.079
<v Speaker 4>like running Venezuela now? He didn't really know how to

816
00:48:58.159 --> 00:49:02.199
<v Speaker 4>answer that, too, well, like are you running Venezuela now?

817
00:49:05.280 --> 00:49:07.280
<v Speaker 1>That was because Trump did say that.

818
00:49:07.400 --> 00:49:09.800
<v Speaker 3>He looked behind them on the podium and said, you know,

819
00:49:09.880 --> 00:49:12.760
<v Speaker 3>the secreator fence, these guys are going to be running.

820
00:49:12.559 --> 00:49:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Venezuela and it's like, Okay, uh, what do I do next?

821
00:49:17.079 --> 00:49:20.559
<v Speaker 1>What have I do tomorrow? So that that was a shock,

822
00:49:20.719 --> 00:49:23.239
<v Speaker 1>that that is a that is a quandary.

823
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:26.559
<v Speaker 3>So maybe they're on the same maybe they're in the

824
00:49:26.639 --> 00:49:28.920
<v Speaker 3>same book, but not quite on the same page yet

825
00:49:29.119 --> 00:49:30.559
<v Speaker 3>A good point.

826
00:49:30.920 --> 00:49:33.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm just saying a few details to be worked

827
00:49:33.480 --> 00:49:36.639
<v Speaker 4>out for future consideration, maybe, like who's actually.

828
00:49:36.400 --> 00:49:38.440
<v Speaker 5>In charge and who you're going to tell the world

829
00:49:38.559 --> 00:49:39.079
<v Speaker 5>is in charge.

830
00:49:39.159 --> 00:49:44.079
<v Speaker 4>But otherwise the the actual efforts here and everything else

831
00:49:44.199 --> 00:49:47.239
<v Speaker 4>are being streamlined, and it does appear as though there

832
00:49:47.320 --> 00:49:51.079
<v Speaker 4>is cohesion and coherence in the strategy now, right, So

833
00:49:51.239 --> 00:49:54.599
<v Speaker 4>State Department is not battling ci A while trying to

834
00:49:54.679 --> 00:49:57.199
<v Speaker 4>implement their agenda and vice versa.

835
00:49:57.400 --> 00:50:00.639
<v Speaker 5>We now have them at least working together. So there

836
00:50:00.679 --> 00:50:00.880
<v Speaker 5>you go.

837
00:50:01.079 --> 00:50:04.000
<v Speaker 4>There's the positive spin, if you will, of what it

838
00:50:04.159 --> 00:50:07.480
<v Speaker 4>is we're looking at. But does this bode well for

839
00:50:07.719 --> 00:50:10.360
<v Speaker 4>our future? Larry, I mean, and now I am onto

840
00:50:10.639 --> 00:50:12.840
<v Speaker 4>our as in you and we and me and you

841
00:50:14.639 --> 00:50:17.079
<v Speaker 4>you know, does this bode well for the US? Or

842
00:50:17.199 --> 00:50:21.239
<v Speaker 4>does this make us you know, once again the gangster

843
00:50:21.440 --> 00:50:24.119
<v Speaker 4>nation on the planet? Or am I again you know

844
00:50:24.239 --> 00:50:25.320
<v Speaker 4>reading hyperbole into this?

845
00:50:25.440 --> 00:50:25.920
<v Speaker 5>What do you think?

846
00:50:27.360 --> 00:50:27.480
<v Speaker 7>Now?

847
00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:30.519
<v Speaker 1>I think what it does. It does restyle the US,

848
00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:34.280
<v Speaker 1>And in the last twelve months we have restyled the US.

849
00:50:34.880 --> 00:50:37.679
<v Speaker 3>I grew up in an era which was called the

850
00:50:37.760 --> 00:50:42.039
<v Speaker 3>era of the Ugly American because we were overbearing.

851
00:50:42.760 --> 00:50:45.280
<v Speaker 1>We were, you know, after World War Two. We have

852
00:50:45.400 --> 00:50:48.199
<v Speaker 1>more military power, we have the A bomb, We can

853
00:50:48.280 --> 00:50:51.000
<v Speaker 1>do whatever we want to do. We can go to

854
00:50:51.079 --> 00:50:56.519
<v Speaker 1>your countries, you know. The it was almost like entertainment.

855
00:50:56.559 --> 00:51:00.440
<v Speaker 3>There were movies made ugly because we were just viewed

856
00:51:00.599 --> 00:51:05.800
<v Speaker 3>as being, you know, obnoxious, overbearing. You know, our ways

857
00:51:05.880 --> 00:51:08.239
<v Speaker 3>the only right way. Why why aren't all you people

858
00:51:08.320 --> 00:51:11.559
<v Speaker 3>speaking English? It's our language. Why aren't you speaking.

859
00:51:12.199 --> 00:51:13.559
<v Speaker 1>That's that's where we are again.

860
00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:17.119
<v Speaker 3>And now that didn't work out too well in the

861
00:51:17.199 --> 00:51:20.559
<v Speaker 3>long run, and almost none of our regime change worked

862
00:51:20.599 --> 00:51:24.039
<v Speaker 3>out too well in the wrong. But quite frankly, to

863
00:51:24.119 --> 00:51:29.320
<v Speaker 3>be honest, it's usually it usually lasted long enough serve

864
00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:33.079
<v Speaker 3>somebody to make a lot of money and somebody to

865
00:51:33.840 --> 00:51:36.400
<v Speaker 3>you know, maintain a position of power for two or

866
00:51:36.480 --> 00:51:39.639
<v Speaker 3>three years, won a few elections, and so it's very

867
00:51:40.039 --> 00:51:44.039
<v Speaker 3>it's not a it's not a long term strategy. I

868
00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:48.199
<v Speaker 3>guess you would have to say, gunpoat diplomacy is a

869
00:51:48.679 --> 00:51:53.079
<v Speaker 3>tactic more than a long term strategy, and it works

870
00:51:53.159 --> 00:51:57.239
<v Speaker 3>well for a time. But you know, we've It's not

871
00:51:57.519 --> 00:52:00.960
<v Speaker 3>we're the only ones that have done it. Basically, everybody

872
00:52:01.079 --> 00:52:05.400
<v Speaker 3>that's had an empire, British, Russian, French have gone through

873
00:52:05.440 --> 00:52:08.280
<v Speaker 3>that phase. It's just that they've kind of come back

874
00:52:08.320 --> 00:52:10.639
<v Speaker 3>in it, out of it. Well we're going back into it.

875
00:52:14.320 --> 00:52:15.199
<v Speaker 5>Well, there you have it.

876
00:52:15.360 --> 00:52:18.400
<v Speaker 4>I mean, so we have the short term strategy as

877
00:52:18.480 --> 00:52:23.880
<v Speaker 4>opposed to the long term plan and you know, will

878
00:52:23.960 --> 00:52:28.599
<v Speaker 4>that will that pan out? Well, I guess we'll have

879
00:52:28.719 --> 00:52:31.920
<v Speaker 4>to stay tuned and see again. Check out Larry Hancock's

880
00:52:32.199 --> 00:52:34.719
<v Speaker 4>word press blog. I advise that you read all of

881
00:52:34.800 --> 00:52:39.039
<v Speaker 4>his books anyway, But for tonight's purposes, here we go.

882
00:52:39.800 --> 00:52:42.119
<v Speaker 4>I would say shadow warfare. I think that was the

883
00:52:42.159 --> 00:52:44.559
<v Speaker 4>first one I said. It was either that or surprise attack,

884
00:52:44.679 --> 00:52:48.599
<v Speaker 4>but either way, both of them highly recommended. But specifically

885
00:52:48.679 --> 00:52:53.440
<v Speaker 4>for tonight, maybe shadow warfare is best, even if we're

886
00:52:53.519 --> 00:52:56.440
<v Speaker 4>not actually casting too many shadows, because everything's just being

887
00:52:56.519 --> 00:52:57.480
<v Speaker 4>done in broad daylight.

888
00:52:58.159 --> 00:52:58.639
<v Speaker 1>There it is.

889
00:52:58.800 --> 00:53:04.920
<v Speaker 4>Gunboat diplomacy and plausible deal ability. So thanks again, Larry,

890
00:53:04.920 --> 00:53:07.360
<v Speaker 4>appreciate you for stopping in, and maybe in two weeks

891
00:53:07.840 --> 00:53:10.480
<v Speaker 4>hopefully we'll have something else to talk about. But I

892
00:53:10.559 --> 00:53:13.000
<v Speaker 4>dare say there may be a continuation of this topic,

893
00:53:13.559 --> 00:53:16.159
<v Speaker 4>and who knows what else might happen in the meantime,

894
00:53:16.199 --> 00:53:19.320
<v Speaker 4>because twenty twenty six just started, and I have a

895
00:53:19.400 --> 00:53:20.159
<v Speaker 4>feeling it's.

896
00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:23.719
<v Speaker 5>Going to be a rocky year anyway. Hopefully it's not

897
00:53:23.880 --> 00:53:24.639
<v Speaker 5>for you listening.

898
00:53:24.880 --> 00:53:28.199
<v Speaker 4>I am merely o'celly, you guys who support this network

899
00:53:28.320 --> 00:53:31.320

<v Speaker 7>off many of them, using new files. It exposes things

905
00:54:27.800 --> 00:54:29.880
<v Speaker 7>about the Bay of Pigs that no one has ever

906
00:54:29.920 --> 00:54:33.079
<v Speaker 7>written about before. It shows why it really failed and

907
00:54:33.199 --> 00:54:36.079
<v Speaker 7>why the United States did not earn from it. It

908
00:54:36.199 --> 00:54:39.840
<v Speaker 7>also shows why other countries today are doing secret operations

909
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:42.559
<v Speaker 7>with more success. This is the book that puts what

910

<v Speaker 7>some want to deny into the light. In Denial, Secret

915
00:55:00.840 --> 00:55:03.920
<v Speaker 8>Force, The War State by Michael Swanson explains the great

916
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:07.239
<v Speaker 8>national transformation that took place and put the Kennedy presidency

917
00:55:07.360 --> 00:55:10.360
<v Speaker 8>in the context of the times and reveals never before

918
00:55:10.440 --> 00:55:14.480
<v Speaker 8>published information about the Cuban missile crisis. President Kennedy would

919
00:55:14.519 --> 00:55:16.880
<v Speaker 8>not have been assassinated if he had been president two

920
00:55:17.000 --> 00:55:20.559
<v Speaker 8>hundred years ago. His assassination took place in the context

921
00:55:20.639 --> 00:55:22.800
<v Speaker 8>of the Cold War and the rise of the national

922
00:55:22.880 --> 00:55:23.679
<v Speaker 8>security state.

923
00:55:23.800 --> 00:55:24.880
<v Speaker 1>Before World War.

924
00:55:24.800 --> 00:55:27.840
<v Speaker 8>II, the United States was a continental republic. In the

925
00:55:27.920 --> 00:55:31.679
<v Speaker 8>decade that followed, it became an imperial superpower. Generals such

926
00:55:31.719 --> 00:55:34.679
<v Speaker 8>as Curtis LeMay not only wanted to invade Cuba, but

927
00:55:34.880 --> 00:55:37.239
<v Speaker 8>knew that there were short range missiles on the island

928
00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:40.440
<v Speaker 8>armed with nuclear warheads that they could not destroy because

929
00:55:40.440 --> 00:55:43.280
<v Speaker 8>they were on mobile launchers. Their invasion could have led

930
00:55:43.320 --> 00:55:46.159
<v Speaker 8>to a Third World War, and they wanted to go

931
00:55:46.239 --> 00:55:50.159
<v Speaker 8>to war anyway. The War State by Michael Swanson reveals

932
00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:53.000
<v Speaker 8>why and will show you what President Kennedy was up against.
