WEBVTT 1 00:00:05.559 --> 00:00:09.080 Good evening, everybody, and welcome to another edition of The 2 00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:10.240 Cajun Night Live. 3 00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:11.759 I am your host. 4 00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:14.720 The Cajun Night Jacob muk I'm gonna give y'all a 5 00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:17.320 little bit of a rundown here. We're starting off in 6 00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:19.519 the good old us of A. We got some things 7 00:00:19.559 --> 00:00:22.359 going on, some natural disasters in certain places. We got 8 00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:25.719 some governmental things happening in other places, some big bill 9 00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:28.480 spending that's about to go down. You know, they just 10 00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:31.519 approved a nine hundred billion dollar defense contract, which you 11 00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:33.640 know our budget, I should say, which, all right, all 12 00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:37.200 good things, all good things. We're gonna shift over slightly 13 00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:40.399 to Venezuela, just for a touch, just for a touch. 14 00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.159 Then we're gonna go over to talk about how Iraq 15 00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:46.640 is now making a deal with Exxon Mobile and asking 16 00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:50.079 them to come seize their oil fields from a Russian company, 17 00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.679 which I'm gonna be honest with you, I didn't have 18 00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:56.560 that on my Bengo card for this year, but here 19 00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:59.079 we are. We're gonna shift over to talk about some 20 00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:02.200 China and some things. You're gonna be talking about England, 21 00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:05.480 how they have their own grassroots movement to stop the 22 00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:08.560 migrants from coming over, in which I again, didn't know 23 00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:10.879 that that was a thing that's happening, but hey, good 24 00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:14.760 on them. We're gonna talk about Japan. They also have 25 00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:17.480 some natural disaster things on top of having some beef 26 00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:20.599 with China currently. Yeah, we're all we're gonna go all 27 00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:22.400 over the place as we do. You know how it 28 00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:24.719 goes here on the cagu Night. But before we get started, 29 00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:26.280 I do need to go ahead and give the shameless 30 00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:28.519 plug for any of the listeners to The Cajun Night 31 00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:30.040 that would like to be a part of this conversation. 32 00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:32.480 Every Wednesday night at nine pm Central, please go to 33 00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.120 the link in the description below and conjoin us at 34 00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:38.040 the Cage Night on patreonh there's only once here for entry. 35 00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:39.680 We're just trying to get this to be its own 36 00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:43.239 endemic thing where we grow and we share information. We 37 00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:45.680 talk about the goings and comings of the day today 38 00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:48.239 operations here, and we all stay up to date on 39 00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:50.959 what's happening. So, without further ado, I'm gonna go ahead 40 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:52.959 and share the screen at this time once again. Also, 41 00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:55.719 the only place to see what we are talking about, 42 00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:57.879 rather than just hear about it, would be to go 43 00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:01.599 to patreon dot com slash Cajun so we're gonna start 44 00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:05.120 off talking about something that actually I'm not gonna say affects. 45 00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:06.879 The whole world, but something that at least. 46 00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:10.319 The entire world might find interesting before we start pulling 47 00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:12.520 into the political and then this country and that country 48 00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:15.080 and whatever else. Everybody on Earth, for the most part, 49 00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:17.800 has heard of the three i at Lis situation. 50 00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:22.919 I saw video today. This dude on the tickettks. 51 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:27.080 Right was saying that apparently they fired a high beam 52 00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:32.080 propulsion photon. He used a lot of big words to 53 00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:33.960 make it sound like they shot three eye at lists 54 00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.360 with a laser cannon from a telescope, and that's what 55 00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:39.560 burned out the James Webb telescope. They can't use it anymore. This, 56 00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:42.719 that and the third and when they did they captured. 57 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.879 They didn't shoot it's like damage it for the record. 58 00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:48.319 They shot it to get readings of the substances that 59 00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:51.599 it was made of or whatever, allegedly super allegedly because 60 00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:55.159 the rest of his claim makes no goddamn sit So basically, 61 00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:57.360 he's saying that when they shot it with this photon 62 00:02:57.439 --> 00:03:02.439 to get these readings, they watched as three objects shot 63 00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:03.280 out of the sides of. 64 00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:05.960 This thing, and they seemed to have their own propulsion. 65 00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:09.960 Systems, and so as I was like, wow, that's pretty crazy, 66 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:11.960 and these like NASA just released to talk about it, 67 00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:15.000 and they didn't know NASA has released nothing of the 68 00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:18.080 sort when I looked into the James Webb telescope that 69 00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:20.719 went out of commission in twenty twenty one from debris 70 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:24.000 getting into the lens. So that if you've seen these 71 00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:26.800 tiktoks that are going around about all these people talking 72 00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:28.800 about three iye at lists, and I've even seen some 73 00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:33.879 people saying that they've they've been channeling three iye at 74 00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:37.759 lists in their meditations and they just know that it's 75 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.319 this or that or the other, like listen, listen, I'm 76 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:45.039 not I'm not trying to be rude to these people, right, 77 00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:48.680 they are human beings and some of the most human beings. Ever, 78 00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:51.159 some might say, but when it comes to three i 79 00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:53.680 at lists, we actually have some new data that has 80 00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:56.639 come up, and they believe that it has the chemical 81 00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:00.800 makeups to potentially hold life. What I mean by that 82 00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.919 is it has some methane, it's got some frozen water, 83 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.840 it's got some carbon, it's got some things to where 84 00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:11.960 potentially in the right mixtures, with these types of materials, 85 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.319 perhaps there could be some sort of life that could 86 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:19.560 be sustained or started or whatever from this from this meteor, 87 00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:22.519 which is pretty insane to see all of these types 88 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:25.079 of chemical compounds on the same craft, I don't want 89 00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:28.160 to say craft on the same object in space that 90 00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:29.959 in and of itself is really really cool to me. 91 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:33.519 But that got me thinking, So, you know, what is 92 00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:35.759 the latest update on the Old three. I you know, 93 00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:38.079 we heard about it making its way around the Earth. 94 00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:41.000 It had just gone around the Sun. It supposedly slingshot 95 00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:44.000 itself around it, and that's the last we heard. I 96 00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:45.680 had heard that they had lost sight of it. I 97 00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:47.240 had heard that it's on the other side of the Sun. 98 00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:47.920 It's making its. 99 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:48.519 Way back soon. 100 00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:52.240 I didn't know, so I decided to go to tech 101 00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:55.319 stock Squared, which didn't I've never heard of this website, 102 00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:57.399 but I gotta tell you, I actually do enjoy it. 103 00:04:58.160 --> 00:04:59.519 NASA's Interstellar Comet three. 104 00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:03.639 I at new images, life, ingredients, and what comes next 105 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:07.360 after the December fly by. I didn't even know when 106 00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:09.279 the date was whenever it was going to be like 107 00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:11.879 the best time to see it, but apparently that day 108 00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:15.120 is still coming. So let's get into it here. As 109 00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:18.720 of December twelfth, twenty twenty five, NASA and partner observatories 110 00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:21.560 are racing to squeeze every last photon out of the 111 00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:25.000 interstellar comic three iye at Liss, a green glowing ice 112 00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:29.319 volcano blasting visitor loaded with the chemical ingredients for life, 113 00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:32.120 quote unquote. Here's the latest on what we've learned and 114 00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:34.680 what to watch in the days ahead. So what is 115 00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:36.920 three I at lists? Why is this such a big deal? 116 00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:39.279 And we've talked about this briefly before, but we're still 117 00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:41.120 gonna touch on some of these key points here. Okay. 118 00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.759 Three I atlist is also categorized as see twenty twenty 119 00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:48.319 five in uh in one. At Lis is the only 120 00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:51.120 the third confirmed object ever seen passing through our Solar 121 00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:55.240 System from another star system, after the Amuamua and the 122 00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:58.920 Borisov right that was in twenty seventeen and twenty nineteen, respectively. 123 00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:02.160 It was discovered on July first, twenty twenty five by 124 00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:05.439 the NASA funded at LIST, which is the Asteroid Terrestrial 125 00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:10.399 Impact Lay Last Alert System telescope in Chile, part of 126 00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:13.839 the agency's Planetary Defense Sky Survey Network. So here's the 127 00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:18.720 key facts from NASA and ESA interstellar origin. Its path 128 00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:22.079 through space is a hyperbolic trajectory. It's moving too fast 129 00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.079 to be gravitationally bound to the Sun, so it's just 130 00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:29.319 passing through and will never return. Okay, fun things now, 131 00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:32.319 The size the Hubble data suggests it's solid, a solid 132 00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:35.560 nucleus somewhere between around four hundred and forty meters and 133 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:39.519 five point six kilometers across. That's kind of a wide 134 00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:42.439 gap there. We got four hundred and forty meters and 135 00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:47.079 or five point six kilometers, but okay, a modest comet 136 00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:50.480 by Solar System standards, but enormous compared to with most 137 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:54.360 of the human made spacecraft. The speed it has also 138 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:56.480 been kind of a crazy point of contention because depending 139 00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:58.879 on who you ask, and by who I mean which 140 00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:02.199 quote unquote official scientific source, They've come back with all 141 00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:05.399 kinds of different answers on speed. So it raced into 142 00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:08.959 the Solar System, the Inner Solar System at one hundred 143 00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:12.600 and thirty seven mile thousand miles per hour one hundred 144 00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:15.720 and thirty seven thousand miles per hour and hit one 145 00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:18.920 hundred and fifty three thousand miles per hour near its 146 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:21.199 closest point to the Sun, So it was like speeding 147 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:24.120 up as it got closer to the Sun. And they 148 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:27.439 say allegedly that it should speed up as it goes 149 00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.759 away from the Sun. And I've heard some reasons for 150 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.879 this because once all the frozen materials heat up and 151 00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:36.959 go into a gaseous state as it rounds around the Sun, 152 00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:40.879 that's gonna use that almost like a jet propulsion, and 153 00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:44.399 it's gonna zip off, which we'll see as it's getting 154 00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:45.000 closer to the Earth. 155 00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.399 They might get a better scale on the speed it's going. 156 00:07:47.399 --> 00:07:50.639 Now that's made its way around safe distance three i 157 00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.000 atlts will come no closer to Earth than about one 158 00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:57.319 point eight astronomical units roughly one hundred and seventy million miles. 159 00:07:58.160 --> 00:07:59.360 That's the closest gonna get. 160 00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:02.600 So I know that even I who I didn't know 161 00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:04.680 much about it, but there was a lot of speculation 162 00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:06.759 to say that it's going to hit us. Then there 163 00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:08.720 was a lot of speculation to say that it had 164 00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:15.360 intelligent steering something or some creature or some whatever was 165 00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:18.879 controlling this thing, almost like it was a spacecraft. So 166 00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:21.000 of this moment it does not appear to be the case. 167 00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:22.959 Who knows. As it makes its way around the Sun. 168 00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:25.399 It might absolutely stop off at Earth and say what's up. 169 00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:29.360 I don't believe that, but I can't rule it out 170 00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:31.439 because there's really not much known about this thing. 171 00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:33.200 But anyway, we're gonna learn more together here. 172 00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:35.919 So it's saying it's not going to get any closer 173 00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:38.440 than about one hundred and seventy million miles from the 174 00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:42.879 Earth and on December nineteenth, twenty twenty five. Okay, as 175 00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:46.399 of Tom recording, that is in nine days, almost twice 176 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:49.399 the Earth Sun distance. That is the closest it's going 177 00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:53.120 to get to us in nine days. So for any 178 00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:57.279 of you amateur astronomers out there that happened to have 179 00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:00.879 a decently you know, powered telescope, perhaps you will be 180 00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:04.080 able to see it in the night sky on December nineteenth. 181 00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:05.559 I don't know. Maybe not. 182 00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:08.000 Maybe because of your position on the Earth, it will 183 00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:10.440 be out of reach for you. I don't know, but hey, 184 00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:14.279 I hope that we got some good cult members and 185 00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:17.840 contingents of the Night's retinue here that might be able 186 00:09:17.840 --> 00:09:20.360 to get some decent picks for US nation boycott. I 187 00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:22.960 see your hand raised earlier, brother, go ahead. 188 00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:23.960 Hey, can you guys hear me? 189 00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:24.399 Yeah? 190 00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:27.720 Brother, all right, So we're just talking about the coronal 191 00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:29.440 mass ejections, right, the solar flares. 192 00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:31.519 I'm assuming I miss missed some of it. 193 00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:33.919 Oh, we're just talking about three eye at lists basically, 194 00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:36.440 and how whenever it goes around the Sun the same 195 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:38.879 way that a lot of asteroids, and like the Uamua 196 00:09:38.919 --> 00:09:41.879 and the Broersov, we made its way around the Sun, 197 00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:46.120 the ice was evaporating off of it. That expansion, that 198 00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:49.840 evaporation actually helped propulsion it away from the Sun. So 199 00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:51.879 it almost seemed like it took off faster once it 200 00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:54.039 made its way around the Sun. And I'm expecting three 201 00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:55.399 Iye to do something similar. 202 00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:58.639 Yeah, there's been a lot of weird stuff going on, 203 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:00.200 you know. 204 00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:04.279 We we with the coronal mass ejections, the solar flares 205 00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.960 coming towards us, and then and and I haven't got 206 00:10:08.080 --> 00:10:11.519 this sort of conspiracy. Uh, I haven't got to really 207 00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:14.279 look at it. I just just seen ran across all 208 00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:21.279 across Twitter. But somebody posted before the the Venezuela, we 209 00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:26.120 just we just seized the Venezuelan tanker, right, somebody posted. 210 00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:28.159 Like a couple of days for that. 211 00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:32.639 If the ancient royal lines are still in power, the 212 00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:34.480 first move against uh. 213 00:10:36.279 --> 00:10:38.080 Venezuela will happen. 214 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:45.159 During a CME, and then the CI happened coronal mass ejection. 215 00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:47.399 Of Solar said, if the ancient blood lines are still 216 00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:50.799 in power, the first move against Venezuela will happen during 217 00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.120 a coronal mass ejection. Well guess what happened during a 218 00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:55.279 coronal mass ejection? 219 00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:59.039 Okay, we are talking about Venezuela. 220 00:10:59.080 --> 00:10:59.840 Bo you. 221 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:01.480 We are going to be talking about that tanker with 222 00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:03.960 Venezuela here in a bit. And also the Nobel Peace 223 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:06.879 Prize that was awarded that they are not talking about 224 00:11:06.919 --> 00:11:10.159 in Venezuela because it's a part of the opposition. But yeah, yeah, 225 00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:13.039 so I haven't heard anything about the royal bloodlines and 226 00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:16.320 if they're still in control, then that would I haven't 227 00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.639 heard that that would lead to that. That's like a 228 00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:19.480 causation thing. 229 00:11:19.639 --> 00:11:21.840 Yeah, perhaps I gotta look into it more. 230 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:23.960 But I just thought it was interesting that it seemed 231 00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:27.120 like the guy preempted this thing with that line, you know, 232 00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:30.440 like he posted on Twitter like a couple of days 233 00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:31.320 before this happened. 234 00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:32.159 So it's wild. 235 00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:36.000 DC has said that there will be land strikes that 236 00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:38.600 will be coming soon if things don't change. 237 00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:40.039 As far as Venezuela's concerned. 238 00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:43.000 As of now, it's been on the boats, the Narco 239 00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:45.799 boats and things like that, and people were giving Hegseth 240 00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:49.600 all kinds of shit because the heat double tapped them essentially, 241 00:11:49.639 --> 00:11:53.240 which they're saying that there they were unarmed civilians at 242 00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:55.519 that time, so why would he double tap them, And 243 00:11:55.559 --> 00:11:58.720 it's like that's not accurate at all. Osama bin Lauden 244 00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.919 was unarmed when he got I got that doesn't matter 245 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:04.200 if they are combatants and they're listed as a terrorist 246 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:07.159 group then whether they have a weapon in their hands 247 00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:10.000 or not, especially in c because now we're getting into 248 00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:13.799 sea warfare rather than land based warfare. The laws of 249 00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:16.360 warfare do change whether you're on the water or on land. 250 00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:18.720 There are still Geneva conventions that play in, but there's 251 00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.480 some very distinct differences. And uh yeah, everybody was trying 252 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:24.600 to fry Hegseth for that, and it's like, well, that's 253 00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:26.799 just simply not going to go anywhere, and lo and 254 00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:31.039 behold it didn't. So yeah, we're gonna get to Venezuela 255 00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:33.200 here in just a bit. We're gonna talk about three 256 00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:34.639 i AT lists, and we're gonna talk about some things 257 00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:36.639 going on in the us of A. Then we're gonna 258 00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:40.080 briefly get into Venezuela, the Tanker, the Nobel Peace Prize, 259 00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:40.960 the things and the. 260 00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:43.480 Stuff Sam before I get back to this article. I 261 00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:44.240 see your hand raised. 262 00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:44.960 What's going on? Man? 263 00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:48.279 Just heads up. 264 00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:51.600 I want to apologize for being late, and I found 265 00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:53.759 a book for you for Christmas. 266 00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:56.720 Okay, no problem with you being late, brother, You know 267 00:12:56.799 --> 00:12:59.080 we're here, you know the times, and it's all good. 268 00:12:59.080 --> 00:13:00.519 At you a little late or you got to cut 269 00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:01.200 out a little early. 270 00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:03.279 It is what it is. But now I'm curious. What 271 00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:03.879 is this book? 272 00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:05.080 Uh? 273 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:07.240 Astrophysics for people in a hurry? 274 00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:10.440 Astrophysics? 275 00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:15.519 Yes, okay, cool, cool, because. 276 00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:17.960 You're you're a knowledgeable person and it so that you 277 00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:21.639 have the science and everything to go at about that. 278 00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:24.080 Hey wait, you want to talk about flat Earth. 279 00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:28.000 Well, here's the fucking of physics on why that doesn't work. 280 00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:32.279 Yeah. I try explaining physics to the flatter of community. 281 00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.879 And then it goes in only one of a couple 282 00:13:34.960 --> 00:13:37.840 of directions. One is, oh, we're using math taught to 283 00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:39.840 you by the rock Fellow system of education. 284 00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:40.919 How can you trust that? 285 00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:44.039 Blah blah blah, Or I mean, it goes into how 286 00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:46.759 I don't know physics because I've never done a college 287 00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:49.240 course on physics, and it's like, well, neither have you, 288 00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:52.840 but okay, and when you when you go against the 289 00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:54.879 flat earth or in any kind of real debate, they 290 00:13:54.919 --> 00:14:00.279 try using legal speak to like make their case that's right, 291 00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:03.320 but it's like not real legal ease. It's basically their 292 00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:06.000 own version of it where they're saying, okay, if it 293 00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:07.960 doesn't if it works on a round model and a 294 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:09.919 flat model, we can't use it. And they're like they 295 00:14:10.039 --> 00:14:12.519 give you like rules for the debate before you start, 296 00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:17.720 and it's like, sure, okay, anyway, breakdown works. 297 00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.000 They're trying to chair you picking in massed monster mass 298 00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:23.960 this shit to work, but it don't work like that. 299 00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:26.799 And dude, it's also crazy because I've said this a 300 00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:30.480 million times. I've seen it be proven true so many times. 301 00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:33.320 If you get five flat earthers in the same room, 302 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:37.919 they will have five completely different and oftentimes conflicting opinions 303 00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:40.159 on how it all works. Some go off the dinner 304 00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:42.720 plate model, some go off the snow globe model. Some 305 00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:45.360 say the space is completely faked, some say space is 306 00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:48.600 completely real. So it's some say it's all some sort 307 00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:51.559 of a matrix theory. It's they try blending these things 308 00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.399 and because they can agree on like three points out 309 00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:57.600 of one hundred, they see themselves as like kindred spirits. 310 00:14:57.600 --> 00:14:59.039 And it's that's insane to me. 311 00:14:59.320 --> 00:15:02.879 But sure, okay, the snow globe theory kind of makes 312 00:15:02.919 --> 00:15:05.159 sense somewhat. I'm not saying one on flat Earth, but 313 00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.919 I like the funmament. I could totally see us in 314 00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.120 a snow globe in like one of God's, like Garager's 315 00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:15.720 and all. But it's funny you talked about the the 316 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:20.000 like a standard language like math, Math is the the 317 00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:24.519 language of the universe. And that's not just me being biased, 318 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.679 because I am who I am, but I'm terrible at math. 319 00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:32.080 But even I know that, Hey, you put this math, 320 00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:36.720 you two plus two equals for whether it's an English, Chinese, Japanese, 321 00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:38.720 or Iranian or whatever. 322 00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:40.000 They speak over their Sanskrit. 323 00:15:40.240 --> 00:15:43.919 Algebra, Algebra is algebra, regardless of what language the teacher 324 00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:48.039 is speaking. Calculus is Calculus is calculus, Geometry is geometry. 325 00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:49.159 It is what it is. 326 00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:55.159 But oh, before I forget, you know the show you sorry, 327 00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:58.480 the creator he died the creator of yougo, died as 328 00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:04.000 a hero unaware he saw that a woman and a 329 00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:07.399 child in a US soldier get took out to it 330 00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:10.600 by ripped current like at a beach or something. He 331 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:14.279 dove into six foot water like the waves or whatever, 332 00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:18.879 and he like he had his smokel suit and everything on. 333 00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:22.279 But they the soldier and he tried to help them, 334 00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:24.519 but he got ripped out to the current and everything. 335 00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:28.159 But the kid, wife, the kid, the mother and the 336 00:16:28.200 --> 00:16:29.200 soldier they survived. 337 00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:32.039 But they found his body two days later, still with 338 00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:35.000 his h this equipment and everything. 339 00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:36.720 This is super random. Was this recent? 340 00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:40.240 I just found out about it today. 341 00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:42.360 Okay, because we are going to be talking about the 342 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:46.399 floods that Japan is experiencing right now because of the earthquake, 343 00:16:46.639 --> 00:16:48.440 so that is something we are going to bring up later. 344 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:50.279 So I don't know if this happened relatively recently or 345 00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:50.960 if that's an old one. 346 00:16:50.960 --> 00:16:53.799 But okay, I'm not exactly sure. 347 00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:57.960 It just popped up on my page today and it 348 00:16:58.039 --> 00:16:58.840 made me sad. 349 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:00.759 Yeah, look it up. Look it up, and when we 350 00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.320 get to Japan, bring that up again. I'm curious when 351 00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:05.839 that took place, because if it was recent, then like hell, 352 00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:08.720 we'll talk about it anyway, all right. So getting back 353 00:17:08.759 --> 00:17:11.119 to three I at lists all right. So this is 354 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:13.880 a fast tour through the inner Solar System, and only 355 00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:16.559 a few months three iatlass has threaded its way past 356 00:17:16.599 --> 00:17:20.400 several planets on a steeply tilted retrograde path close to 357 00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:23.920 aligned with the plane of our Solar system. July one, 358 00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:28.240 twenty twenty five discovery by of Atlas in Chile early 359 00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:32.960 observatory Jesus early observation show a faint active object inbound 360 00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:36.799 from the direction of Sagittarius towards the Milky Way central region. 361 00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:39.680 That was July first, October third of this year. 362 00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:43.359 It passes about zero point one nine Au, which is 363 00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:47.559 about twenty nine million kilometers from Mars. ESA's Mars Express 364 00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:52.160 and Exo Mars Trace gas orbiters collect crucial images and spectra, 365 00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:55.920 helping refine its trajectory by a factor of ten Okay. 366 00:17:56.319 --> 00:17:57.759 October twenty ninth. 367 00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:01.799 Just a few weeks later, sweeps just inside Mars's orbit 368 00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:05.279 about one point three six Au from the Sun, while 369 00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:07.920 almost directly behind the Sun from Earth's point of view, 370 00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:11.359 invisible to ground based telescopes but tracked by spacecraft like 371 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:17.079 SOHO Punch and stereo. November twenty twenty five, Atlas emerges 372 00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:20.920 from the Solar Conjunction into the dawn sky. ESA's Juice 373 00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:25.559 spacecraft near the inner Solar System in NASA's Heliophysics or Yeah, 374 00:18:25.599 --> 00:18:31.079 Heliophysics mission capture views of its developing trails. Now, this 375 00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:34.160 is getting into the future a little bit here. December 376 00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:38.440 nineteenth the closest approach to Earth at one point eight AU, 377 00:18:38.680 --> 00:18:40.400 which we talked about that distance early. It's about one 378 00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:43.119 hundred and seventy miles on the far side of the Sun. 379 00:18:43.279 --> 00:18:46.440 After that, it will climb out through the outer Solar System, 380 00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:50.160 passing about point three six AU from Jupiter in March 381 00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:54.480 twenty twenty six before disappearing back into interstellar space. Okay, 382 00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:56.920 so hopefully, like I said, we get a decent a 383 00:18:56.960 --> 00:18:58.200 decent look at it, you know. 384 00:18:58.759 --> 00:18:59.960 For backyard observers. 385 00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:02.920 Three eye Atlas has always been a telescope only object, 386 00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:07.279 even around perihelion. Okay. It peaked around a magnitude of 387 00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:12.079 nine to eleven and has already faded around magnitude eleven 388 00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:15.240 to twelve by early December, far too dim for the 389 00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:19.160 naked eye, but a reachable smudge in medium sized amateur 390 00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:20.880 instruments under dark skies. 391 00:19:21.480 --> 00:19:23.200 So okay, very awesome. 392 00:19:23.319 --> 00:19:25.400 So again we're not going to read the whole article 393 00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:27.680 about it, but I did want to talk about this one. 394 00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:32.440 Here today's headline, the comment is spewing key ingredients for life. 395 00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:36.799 This I found interesting. The biggest breaking story on December 396 00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:39.880 tenth today as a time of recording is chemical. A 397 00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:45.440 NASA lead team using the Attakarna Large Millimeter Submillimeter Array 398 00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.799 or ALMA in Chile has announced that three I atlas 399 00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:53.400 is unusually rich in methanol and hydrogen cyanide, molecules that 400 00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:59.359 play important roles in prebiotic chemistry. Okay, so now methanol bonanza. 401 00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:03.359 Methanol appears to make up about eight percent of all 402 00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:07.359 vapor streaming off the comet, roughly four times higher than 403 00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:10.559 typical solar system commets. Now that's interesting. And for those 404 00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:14.680 that don't know what methanol is, it is basically liquid 405 00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:17.519 natural gas O case, so methane gas that has been 406 00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:19.160 compressed down to its liquid state. 407 00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:20.599 We would call that methanol. 408 00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:23.359 As a matter of fact, I used to work at 409 00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:26.519 a methanex plant in Geysmer, and that's what they do. 410 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:29.759 They make methanol, and a lot of Asian countries are 411 00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:33.039 using that as a fuel additive instead of like what 412 00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:35.559 we call in the state's ethanol, which is made from 413 00:20:35.559 --> 00:20:39.880 like corn alcohol. They're using methanol in a lot of 414 00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:42.119 Asian countries, which I wish we would use that. It 415 00:20:42.200 --> 00:20:45.559 burns cleaner, it doesn't gum up you know, components and 416 00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:50.519 things like that. But beside the point now, hydrogen cyanide HCM, 417 00:20:51.119 --> 00:20:54.759 the common is also unusually abundant in hydrogen cyanide, a 418 00:20:54.799 --> 00:20:58.240 molecule that can participate in pathways that build amino acids 419 00:20:58.279 --> 00:20:59.359 and nucleo bases. 420 00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:01.319 In labbage experiments. 421 00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:06.279 Complex internal chemistry, methanoll appears both in icy nucleus and 422 00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:10.720 in the extended comma, implying active chemistry inside the comet 423 00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:13.960 as and in the gas flowing off of it. So 424 00:21:14.039 --> 00:21:17.200 some outlets have framed this as the comet quote unquote 425 00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:20.799 releasing the ingredients for life, echoing long standing ideas that 426 00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:25.599 the comet may seed young planets with organic molecules and water. Crucially, 427 00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:28.680 NASA and the researchers are not claiming that three iatlist 428 00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:32.799 carries life itself, only that it's unusually rich in chemical 429 00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:37.720 feedstock that under the right planetary conditions, could contribute to 430 00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:42.079 life's recipe. So I thought that was cool, honestly. And 431 00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:44.880 then they have this thing about the ice volcano. I 432 00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:46.759 didn't know what that was about, but let's check it here. 433 00:21:46.799 --> 00:21:49.920 It says if three iatlists had a personality, it would 434 00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:54.279 be dramatic. Okay. Over the past few months, astronomers have 435 00:21:54.359 --> 00:21:58.319 watched it turn bright green, sprout multiple tales, including a 436 00:21:58.359 --> 00:22:01.799 strange anti tail, which is very odd. Usually as something 437 00:22:01.880 --> 00:22:04.400 is zooming through the sky, the tail is behind it. 438 00:22:04.920 --> 00:22:07.160 The tail has been behind it, yes, but it also 439 00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:09.400 sprouted a tail going out in front of it, which 440 00:22:09.440 --> 00:22:13.240 is mind blowing to me. But okay. It has undergone 441 00:22:13.240 --> 00:22:17.880 a sharp and sustained brightened brightening near the sun, also 442 00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:24.200 very unusual, and it shows signs of global cryovolcanism. It 443 00:22:24.319 --> 00:22:29.759 shows signs of global ice volcanoes. I I have no 444 00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:33.039 idea what that's about. Let's see here, ice volcanoes and 445 00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:35.759 the naked surface. A new wave of research suggests that 446 00:22:35.799 --> 00:22:39.799 the comet surface may be erupting with cryovolcanoes, jets of 447 00:22:39.920 --> 00:22:44.720 volatile ices blasting into space as subsurface pockets heat up. 448 00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:50.960 A preprint led by Joseppe Trigo Rodriguez Trio, I'm not 449 00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:53.160 sure how they pronounce it in his country. By Josep. 450 00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:58.400 Rodriguez and colleagues, supported the by Live Science and other outlets, 451 00:22:58.480 --> 00:23:02.720 describe spiral jets structures in a global surgeon activity consistent 452 00:23:02.799 --> 00:23:09.720 with ice rich cryovolcanic eruptions. Cool analysis is, analyses, analysises 453 00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:13.880 multiple analysis indicate that, unlike most long period comments from 454 00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:17.599 our own ort cloud, three eye at lists may lack 455 00:23:17.680 --> 00:23:20.759 a thick insulating dust mantle, allowing large regions of its 456 00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:23.839 surface to switch on at once as it warms. 457 00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:25.039 That's dope. 458 00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:27.759 I don't know if that's gonna play into anything for 459 00:23:27.880 --> 00:23:30.599 us on Earth, But to say that there's a comet 460 00:23:31.039 --> 00:23:35.079 that has got ice volcanoes going on, I think that's cool. 461 00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:38.240 I just think that's cool as hell anyway. All right, 462 00:23:38.359 --> 00:23:39.960 enough of the three eye at lists talk. If you're 463 00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:42.880 out there and you have some sort of a decent telescope, 464 00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:44.799 hopefully on December. 465 00:23:44.440 --> 00:23:46.319 Nineteenth you'll be able to get a good look at it. 466 00:23:46.519 --> 00:23:49.160 If not, I'm sure an assah will hook us up 467 00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:52.519 with the images as expected, but I would be very 468 00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:56.240 curious if any hell, even your like local observatory. 469 00:23:56.359 --> 00:23:58.240 We have one out too far from the house, and 470 00:23:59.000 --> 00:23:59.839 I might have to clear my. 471 00:23:59.839 --> 00:24:03.000 Caleander for the nineteenth to see if I could go 472 00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:06.640 in and check it out. I guarantee those observatory nerds 473 00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:08.559 are gonna have it zoomed in as best they can. 474 00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:09.240 But I don't know. 475 00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:10.559 We'll see again. 476 00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:12.920 Maybe in Louisiana we won't have a clear view of it. 477 00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:15.279 Maybe it's only clear for like certain spots on Earth. 478 00:24:15.359 --> 00:24:18.240 I don't know, we'll see. All right, Now, we are 479 00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:22.519 going to talk about the Washington State floods that are 480 00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:26.640 going on here. Record flooding threatens Washington governor declares state 481 00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:30.400 wide emergency. Residents packed up valuables and prepared to flee 482 00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:33.519 rising rivers in western Washington State Wednesday, as a new 483 00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:36.359 wave of heavy rains swept into our region, still reeling 484 00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:39.400 from a storm that triggered rescues and road closures a 485 00:24:39.519 --> 00:24:43.440 day earlier. Yeah, Washington is just getting smacked right now. 486 00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:48.880 In the Pacific Northwest, an atmospheric river was swelling rivers. 487 00:24:48.920 --> 00:24:53.839 An atmospheric river was swelling rivers towards record levels. All right, fine, 488 00:24:54.279 --> 00:24:58.000 with major flooding expected in some areas, including the Saggot River, 489 00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:02.359 in a major agricultural north of Seattle. Dozens of vehicles 490 00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:04.880 are backed up at a sand bag filling station in 491 00:25:04.920 --> 00:25:08.160 the town of Mount Vernon, as authorities warned all residents 492 00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.039 who live within the river's floodplain to be ready to evacuate. 493 00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:14.920 There is a direct quote from Mount Vernon Mayor Peter Donovan. 494 00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:18.240 We're preparing for what increasingly appears to be a worst 495 00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:22.160 case scenario here in the Mount ray Neer foothills southeast 496 00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:25.359 of Seattle. Pierce County Sheriff's deputies rescued people at an 497 00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:29.160 RV park in Ording, including helping one man in a 498 00:25:29.240 --> 00:25:32.160 Santa Hat way through waste deep waters. Part of the 499 00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:36.319 town was ordered to evacuate over concerns about the poyl 500 00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:40.920 Up poyol Up. Yeah, sure that river extremely high levels 501 00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:44.799 and its upstream levees. Washington Governor Bob Ferguson declared a 502 00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:47.880 statewide emergency Wednesday. Wives will be at stake in the 503 00:25:47.880 --> 00:25:50.519 coming days. He said. It's time to pay attention, said 504 00:25:50.759 --> 00:25:54.759 Gent Welsh, Adjutant General of the Washington National Guard. Hundreds 505 00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:57.960 of Washington National Guard members will be sent to help communities. 506 00:25:57.960 --> 00:26:02.200 Welsh said, talking about how this river could break records. 507 00:26:02.759 --> 00:26:05.640 The Saggot River is expected to cress at roughly forty 508 00:26:05.720 --> 00:26:09.720 seven feet in the mountain town of Concrete early Thursday 509 00:26:09.799 --> 00:26:12.960 and roughly forty one feet in Mount Vernon early Friday morning. 510 00:26:13.279 --> 00:26:17.119 Those are both quote unquote records, setting forecasts by several feet. 511 00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:21.039 Saga County officials said. Mount Vernon the largest city in 512 00:26:21.079 --> 00:26:24.960 the county with some thirty five thousand residents. Compel completed 513 00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:28.240 a wall in twenty eighteen that helps protect the downtown 514 00:26:28.279 --> 00:26:31.200 from flooding. But the city, parts of which are in 515 00:26:31.279 --> 00:26:34.720 the floodplain, including commercial areas, are on high alert with 516 00:26:34.839 --> 00:26:37.359 a flood, and with a flood of this magnitude that's 517 00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:39.960 predicted here in the next couple of days, I'm concerned 518 00:26:39.960 --> 00:26:43.160 about all of our buildings in the city in the floodplain. Again, 519 00:26:43.240 --> 00:26:48.119 that's from Donovan, the mayor. Harrison Rodmacher, a meteorologist with 520 00:26:48.200 --> 00:26:51.759 the Weather Service in Seattle, described the atmospheric river soaking 521 00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:56.079 the region as quote a jet stream of moisture end quote, 522 00:26:56.079 --> 00:27:00.200 stretching across the Pacific Ocean, with the nozzle pushing right 523 00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:02.799 along the coast of Oregon and Washington. 524 00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:03.799 Wow. 525 00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:05.839 So we already talked about how some of these cities 526 00:27:05.880 --> 00:27:08.279 are responding to this flood and they are expecting it 527 00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:10.079 to get a whole lot worse before it gets better. 528 00:27:10.440 --> 00:27:12.240 For any of our good listeners that are out there 529 00:27:12.279 --> 00:27:15.400 in the Upper Pacific Northwest, our thoughts and prayers are 530 00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:17.279 with you, and for the love of God, get out 531 00:27:17.319 --> 00:27:19.880 of the floodplain while you still can, because it doesn't 532 00:27:19.880 --> 00:27:22.119 seem like it's going to be stopping for a good bit. 533 00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:26.640 All right, Moving on to the next topic of discussion here, 534 00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:29.960 we're going to the Hill for this article. Here, the 535 00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:36.119 House overwhelmingly passes a nine hundred billion dollar annual defense bill. 536 00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:40.720 Nine hundred billion annually on our defense. Now I understand 537 00:27:40.720 --> 00:27:42.640 that I'm a bit biased here. You can tell by 538 00:27:42.680 --> 00:27:45.680 the kevlar behind me and by me mentioning it a 539 00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:47.720 good bit that I am, in fact a Marine Corps veteran. 540 00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:51.559 I like that America spends so much in our defense budget. 541 00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:53.720 I understand that this is the source contingent for a 542 00:27:53.720 --> 00:27:56.599 lot of people. I understand that we are so far 543 00:27:56.680 --> 00:28:00.240 ahead of all of our would be competitors that we 544 00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:03.079 could take a break and we could stop. As far 545 00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:05.279 as that's concerned, we don't have to keep throwing money 546 00:28:05.279 --> 00:28:07.839 into the military industrial complex. And we don't have to 547 00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:10.440 do as much funding of this because no country on 548 00:28:10.480 --> 00:28:13.920 Earth could stand up against us, nor would they want to. 549 00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:17.359 But we're very, very far ahead on the pretty much 550 00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:21.720 every conceivable metric. I get this, I do. But you know, 551 00:28:22.839 --> 00:28:27.039 this reminds me of a monologue by Christopher Walkin. Right. 552 00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:29.720 He was talking about how there was a lion in 553 00:28:29.759 --> 00:28:32.680 the savannah, and you know, it was so hot. He 554 00:28:32.759 --> 00:28:35.359 lays up under a tree for a little bit and 555 00:28:35.720 --> 00:28:38.160 his little lion cub comes up and starts messing with him, 556 00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:41.680 chewing on his ears, pulling his tail whatever. The lion 557 00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:43.680 doesn't really worry about it, right, He's the king of 558 00:28:43.720 --> 00:28:46.680 the jungle. What's this little lion cub really trying to 559 00:28:46.839 --> 00:28:50.480 do anything? Right? Then the lion s comes making trouble, 560 00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:54.079 pulling out his tail, giving him a hard time. He 561 00:28:54.119 --> 00:28:58.400 does nothing, but the other animals within the jungle observe 562 00:28:58.519 --> 00:29:01.599 this next thing. You know, the actual enemies start to 563 00:29:01.640 --> 00:29:06.720 circle in, the hyenas, the jackals, right, and they keep 564 00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:08.960 going and going and messing with them and messing with 565 00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:11.519 them until one day the line gets up and tears 566 00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:15.000 the shit out of every living creature around him, because 567 00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:17.319 every now and then the lion has to stand up 568 00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:20.839 and remind people who he is. Now here's the deal. 569 00:29:21.400 --> 00:29:24.240 I don't want America to have to do that. I 570 00:29:24.640 --> 00:29:28.680 don't particularly care for that option. I would much rather 571 00:29:28.880 --> 00:29:31.920 us stay at the top and remind people that we 572 00:29:31.960 --> 00:29:33.839 are at the top, so that we don't have to 573 00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:36.279 tear the shit out of everyone that. It doesn't seem 574 00:29:36.319 --> 00:29:38.160 like that would be very beneficial to everybody. 575 00:29:38.240 --> 00:29:39.680 Right With that being. 576 00:29:39.559 --> 00:29:43.559 Said, nine hundred billion dollars as an annual defense bill. 577 00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:45.759 A lot of people are gonna say that sounds like 578 00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:47.519 a lot. A lot of people are gonna say that 579 00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:51.160 sounds like too much. I don't know if I necessarily agree. 580 00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:54.119 I can't. I can't really justify that. That sounds like 581 00:29:54.160 --> 00:29:56.720 a very justifiable expense to me as of this moment. 582 00:29:57.359 --> 00:29:59.319 Before I get into the article here, Sam must see 583 00:29:59.319 --> 00:30:00.559 your hand raised, brother, what you got? 584 00:30:01.559 --> 00:30:04.240 I think we need to We need to boost those numbers, 585 00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:05.640 those Wi rookie numbers. 586 00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:07.559 We need at least two point five trillion. 587 00:30:08.160 --> 00:30:10.400 Shit. I don't know of many countries that even come 588 00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:12.480 close to this level of spending. I'm gonna be honest 589 00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:13.960 with you. I know some people are out there that 590 00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:17.039 do it, but uh, it's more like where's that money 591 00:30:17.039 --> 00:30:18.039 actually going kind of thing. 592 00:30:18.039 --> 00:30:19.359 Even for us. Let's be clear. 593 00:30:20.599 --> 00:30:21.599 I understand that. 594 00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:26.519 But look, all I'm saying is it's better to have 595 00:30:26.640 --> 00:30:30.960 a blunderbus as a backup of a backup and then 596 00:30:31.160 --> 00:30:36.240 not having anything but a pocketknize you more training, more 597 00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:37.240 more specialized. 598 00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:40.440 I hear that, But it's not like, even if we 599 00:30:40.440 --> 00:30:43.359 were to cut our military spending for a whole fiscal year, 600 00:30:44.279 --> 00:30:46.359 we're not going out there with pocketized. We are still 601 00:30:46.519 --> 00:30:49.559 the best equipped, the best trained, like by far on 602 00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:51.960 mass to the numbers that we have in our military 603 00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:54.720 military force on Earth, that's not even a close comparison. 604 00:30:57.160 --> 00:30:59.960 Like put enough R and D and throw enough money 605 00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:04.839 into it where we can have a minuionaire armored Spartan 606 00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:05.599 two program. 607 00:31:06.640 --> 00:31:09.200 Yeah, that's what I'm on. And I do like the 608 00:31:09.200 --> 00:31:12.799 fact that this bill was passed by partisan This was 609 00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:16.240 easily passed by both sides, which I found to be 610 00:31:16.400 --> 00:31:22.720 very very nice. Honestly, Nation boycott go ahead, sir, Hey, 611 00:31:22.920 --> 00:31:23.720 So yeah. 612 00:31:23.880 --> 00:31:26.640 Unfortunate thing about that budget is most of it goes 613 00:31:26.680 --> 00:31:32.519 to like the big defense contractors that are overly bloated, 614 00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:35.480 and most of that money gets wasted at the CEO level, 615 00:31:35.880 --> 00:31:40.200 sure executive level, and all of our money and like 616 00:31:40.240 --> 00:31:45.480 stuff we're developing now goes to like extremely expensive complex systems. 617 00:31:45.559 --> 00:31:47.240 So like a lot of that some of that budget 618 00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:51.559 goes into the new gerald board class aircraft carriers we're 619 00:31:51.559 --> 00:31:56.519 building that costs billions of dollars. Right, China just announced 620 00:31:56.519 --> 00:31:58.920 it's known now that they can produce hypersonic missiles for 621 00:31:58.960 --> 00:32:02.480 one hundred grand, So they can produce hypersonic missiles for 622 00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:06.240 less than what some Ford F one fifties costs. Right, 623 00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:11.599 they produce one hundred hypersonic missiles, what is that ten 624 00:32:11.680 --> 00:32:12.400 million dollars? 625 00:32:12.759 --> 00:32:13.039 Right? 626 00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:18.279 But also look at what their class as a hypersonic missile, right, 627 00:32:18.319 --> 00:32:20.400 the same thing that Russia they classify it as if 628 00:32:20.400 --> 00:32:23.240 it goes past so fast in the speed barrier and 629 00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:26.880 all these things. By their metrics, we have had America 630 00:32:26.920 --> 00:32:30.440 has had hypersonic missiles since nineteen forty eight. By the 631 00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:32.920 metrics that China and Russia are touting as like a 632 00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:34.079 massive victory right now. 633 00:32:34.960 --> 00:32:37.279 Right, I think these ones specifically are like seven, like 634 00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:39.319 Max seven, like Max seven and a half, And. 635 00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:41.440 That's impressive, But. 636 00:32:43.880 --> 00:32:44.559 There's alarm. 637 00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:47.160 There's actually alarms going inside the Pentagon right now because 638 00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:50.400 they're running wargames and like nine times out of ten 639 00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:54.480 we lose to China in these wargames because the aircraft 640 00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:57.759 carriers are sitting ducks when they do these wargames. All 641 00:32:57.759 --> 00:33:00.200 of our aircraft carriers get taken out by China in 642 00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:00.960 the first week. 643 00:33:01.799 --> 00:33:04.359 Have you looked at the metrics that are being used 644 00:33:04.359 --> 00:33:07.359 for those war games also. 645 00:33:09.400 --> 00:33:11.839 I've looked into the metrics. I just know that it's 646 00:33:11.880 --> 00:33:13.039 coming from the Pentagon. 647 00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:15.039 No, no, no, that's that's accurate. That's accurate. 648 00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:16.759 But what I will say is I have done a 649 00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:20.839 very very deep dive into the amount of wargames that 650 00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:24.119 we run in this country, and they go because we 651 00:33:24.240 --> 00:33:26.799 are so dominant in so many areas, we have to 652 00:33:26.960 --> 00:33:30.160 nerve ourselves to even make it somewhat of a fair fight. 653 00:33:30.839 --> 00:33:34.079 They're assuming that they're able to even touch our aircraft carriers, 654 00:33:34.119 --> 00:33:36.359 and so like, for the wargame principle, we pretty much 655 00:33:36.359 --> 00:33:38.480 write those off as a loss right off the rip 656 00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:40.039 and see what we would have to do for that 657 00:33:40.119 --> 00:33:44.640 point onward. Because of the amount of ordinance that is 658 00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:48.160 with the aircraft carrier and the strike group as a whole. 659 00:33:48.960 --> 00:33:51.839 I don't actually believe that those even hypersonics will be 660 00:33:51.880 --> 00:33:54.160 able to touch not just our aircraft carriers, but like 661 00:33:54.200 --> 00:33:56.920 any of our naval fleets. And then that's also they 662 00:33:56.920 --> 00:34:00.480 would have to completely take out other ass that we 663 00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:03.880 have in and around the Asian continent. Right, they're taking 664 00:34:03.920 --> 00:34:07.960 out the entire Midway base, They're nerfing the Hawaiian Naval 665 00:34:08.000 --> 00:34:10.000 station right off the rip, and they have to do 666 00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:12.159 this to try to make it somewhat of a one 667 00:34:12.159 --> 00:34:15.800 to one comparison. It's not pretty. And honestly, even if 668 00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:18.480 it was China, there's no way for them to get 669 00:34:18.519 --> 00:34:21.679 their troops here to do a ground based attack on us. 670 00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:25.840 And there's not really many good options for US to 671 00:34:25.880 --> 00:34:28.800 get our troops to China for a ground based attack either. 672 00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:32.280 So it's you know, I agree, but it is kind 673 00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:35.199 of scary with the coalition forming, you know, the anti 674 00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:40.639 you know West coalition, and then China is making moves 675 00:34:40.679 --> 00:34:44.480 towards us, you know, essentially our think about America's military, right, 676 00:34:44.920 --> 00:34:48.199 Our military was built to basically police the world. China's 677 00:34:48.239 --> 00:34:51.760 military is built for one fucking reason, only defeat the 678 00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:55.800 United States, Right, pretty much. And there I was just 679 00:34:55.800 --> 00:34:58.119 for another article. They are there is a island. 680 00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:02.639 It's the closest island Japan or too Guam. It was 681 00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:03.519 a Chinese. 682 00:35:04.559 --> 00:35:06.639 Chinese took it over I believe from Japan during the 683 00:35:06.679 --> 00:35:12.320 war or something. But they are rehabilitating an airstrip right now. 684 00:35:13.559 --> 00:35:15.599 It's the closest island, Tubuamp So it's scared. 685 00:35:15.679 --> 00:35:17.840 In my background, I'm Navy in the maybe for eight 686 00:35:17.920 --> 00:35:18.599 years aviation. 687 00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:22.880 Still work for one of the big three defense contractors 688 00:35:23.559 --> 00:35:24.559 in a secret role. 689 00:35:24.639 --> 00:35:26.880 So there you go. You know, most people that work 690 00:35:26.920 --> 00:35:30.239 in the wing side, they most I will say, and 691 00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:32.119 I guess it depends on the specialty that you did 692 00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:35.280 within the wing we'll find themselves working for Boeing or 693 00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:38.239 Lockey Martin or whatever. One of my buddies who is 694 00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:41.559 a Marine who worked on helicopters and shit, there's not 695 00:35:41.800 --> 00:35:44.719 much call for helicopter mechanics in the civilian sector. There 696 00:35:44.719 --> 00:35:47.360 are some like hospitals have these helicopters and things like that, 697 00:35:47.639 --> 00:35:51.119 or you can go work for Boeing and they pay 698 00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:53.480 and it's like, you know, I can't argue with your 699 00:35:53.480 --> 00:35:55.800 logic on this one. So it makes sense that you 700 00:35:55.800 --> 00:35:57.239 would work for one of the Big Three as of 701 00:35:57.280 --> 00:35:59.360 this moment, of course. I you know, I'm not asking 702 00:35:59.360 --> 00:36:01.760 you to name which one for you know, security reasons 703 00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:02.719 and op second shit. 704 00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:05.639 But but okay, so you were in from what year 705 00:36:05.679 --> 00:36:06.119 to what year? 706 00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:11.920 Uh, twenty fourteen to twenty two? 707 00:36:12.599 --> 00:36:15.800 Oh shit, you joined when I was getting out, Damn. 708 00:36:16.440 --> 00:36:16.800 Yeah, I was. 709 00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:17.280 I joined. 710 00:36:17.320 --> 00:36:19.239 I was twenty five when I joined. I joined late. 711 00:36:19.679 --> 00:36:22.760 Oh fuck, you got a late start, damn. 712 00:36:23.639 --> 00:36:25.519 Which was good because I definitely would have got kicked 713 00:36:25.519 --> 00:36:27.039 out if I had joined right out of high school. 714 00:36:27.639 --> 00:36:30.239 There there's pros and cons. There's pros and cons. 715 00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:34.000 I did a lot of stuff in between high school 716 00:36:34.079 --> 00:36:35.239 and going in the Navy. 717 00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:37.360 Yeah, but then it also sucked because most of the 718 00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:39.039 people that were like bitching you out and telling you 719 00:36:39.039 --> 00:36:41.039 what to do, you were like, bro, I was you 720 00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:43.320 were in middle school when I was fucking around, Like 721 00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:45.480 calm down, like watch your tone, kid. 722 00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:49.679 Yeah, I agree, but you know, you kind of just 723 00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:51.480 gotta just just shut up. I was smart enough to 724 00:36:51.519 --> 00:36:53.800 know just shut up. Nut'erre told, And uh I wasn't. 725 00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:54.039 I was. 726 00:36:54.079 --> 00:36:54.519 I mean, I went. 727 00:36:54.559 --> 00:36:57.760 I went in as an E three and I was 728 00:36:57.800 --> 00:37:00.000 in E six in my first four and a half 729 00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:01.159 half years, so. 730 00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:03.519 I moved up Coole Wick I was, And now I 731 00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:05.480 don't know how that works in the Navy side of things, 732 00:37:05.480 --> 00:37:08.840 the Marine Corps, that's that's unheard of, right to unless 733 00:37:08.840 --> 00:37:11.360 you're in some sort of a super specialty MOS where 734 00:37:11.400 --> 00:37:13.800 they advance quickly and they have the budget for and 735 00:37:13.840 --> 00:37:16.599 whatever else. I was a grunt and in the Marine 736 00:37:16.599 --> 00:37:18.400 Corps we don't get funding, and the grunts are the 737 00:37:18.480 --> 00:37:22.360 largest groups, so it's harder to advance. But in the 738 00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:25.119 in the Army, you I've heard of these stories of 739 00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:28.559 guys that like got staff sergeant or E six in 740 00:37:28.760 --> 00:37:30.719 their first enlistment and shit like this. But that makes 741 00:37:30.719 --> 00:37:32.400 sense because the Army gets a bunch of funding. Same 742 00:37:32.400 --> 00:37:34.280 with the Air Force. I don't know how that works 743 00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:36.960 in the Navy.

For the record, Creole French and Cajun French 925 00:46:20.280 --> 00:46:23.039 are too different. That's that's not even like saying a 926 00:46:23.119 --> 00:46:27.119 Spain to Mexico comparison. This is completely different languages as 927 00:46:27.159 --> 00:46:27.480 a whole. 928 00:46:27.519 --> 00:46:31.880 They both the illegitimate bastards children of the French. 929 00:46:33.119 --> 00:46:35.719 You would think, you would think. Although I will say 930 00:46:35.760 --> 00:46:40.039 that French French French speakers can understand at least portions 931 00:46:40.039 --> 00:46:44.480 of Cajun French. They can't understand fuck from Haiti, like not. 932 00:46:44.559 --> 00:46:50.519 Even Creole French is a whole whole different thing. But yeah, Royce, 933 00:46:50.639 --> 00:46:53.280 you'll see your hand brother. Sorry, Sam, go ahead. 934 00:46:54.199 --> 00:46:56.320 The it's kind of really cool about if you look 935 00:46:56.360 --> 00:47:00.239 at the etymology of languages and how the the how 936 00:47:00.280 --> 00:47:04.199 they evolved in everything. Oh, I think I sent you 937 00:47:04.360 --> 00:47:08.559 the video of a linguistic expert and how she talks 938 00:47:08.599 --> 00:47:13.880 about how the different uh accents of like the southern 939 00:47:14.159 --> 00:47:16.400 and up or the like the weather, the first thirteen 940 00:47:16.440 --> 00:47:20.440 colonies were and everything, which also New Orleans was the 941 00:47:20.519 --> 00:47:24.639 French's attempt. Louisiana was the French attempt of a penal colony. 942 00:47:25.360 --> 00:47:28.480 Just learned that myself, just learned that myself, I had 943 00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:31.679 heard about the coffin girls. I grew up and I 944 00:47:31.679 --> 00:47:33.679 had heard about the coffin girls that came here, right, 945 00:47:34.239 --> 00:47:36.599 I didn't realize that it was a penal colony. 946 00:47:36.639 --> 00:47:39.840 And that's how Louisiana was basically like habited. 947 00:47:41.000 --> 00:47:45.199 Thieves and like the undesirables, which they would say, hey. 948 00:47:45.039 --> 00:47:47.280 You wanna you don't want to be in prison. 949 00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:49.880 Fine, cool, So you're gonna get married, You're gonna marry 950 00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:52.760 a prostitute, and you're gonna fuck off to Louisiana. 951 00:47:53.079 --> 00:47:56.679 Yeah, a lot of them weren't prostitutes. 952 00:47:56.760 --> 00:47:59.719 A lot of them were just women that were undeclared 953 00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:03.360 and seen as just they weren't married or had any 954 00:48:03.440 --> 00:48:06.280 kind of real prospects. Nobody was trying to engage them 955 00:48:06.400 --> 00:48:08.880 or anything like this. So basically, if you were like 956 00:48:09.519 --> 00:48:15.320 if you were, essentially they were suitorless, poorer women from 957 00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:17.559 Paris that got picked up and said, well, it looks 958 00:48:17.559 --> 00:48:19.559 like you're a prostitute and she's like, I am not, 959 00:48:19.679 --> 00:48:22.760 and they're like, well, you're going to the great wide world. 960 00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:25.079 Of New Orleans and you're going to start a new 961 00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:25.519 life there. 962 00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:30.400 Here's your husband, which honestly ties into why Louisiana and 963 00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:37.920 divorce has such a checkered history. We'll say that although no, no, no, no, no, 964 00:48:38.239 --> 00:48:40.440 just like people getting married and then getting divorced like 965 00:48:40.480 --> 00:48:43.639 relatively quickly, even though Louisiana is an extremely Catholic state 966 00:48:44.719 --> 00:48:47.840 as far as the culture goes in Louisiana, like, divorce 967 00:48:47.920 --> 00:48:51.159 isn't like a crazy thing for us, even though we're 968 00:48:51.280 --> 00:48:52.440 predominantly Catholic. 969 00:48:52.519 --> 00:48:54.880 It's it's been a thing literally since the foundation. 970 00:48:55.719 --> 00:48:59.719 I thought divorce was not okay in Catholicism. 971 00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:00.400 It's not. 972 00:49:00.559 --> 00:49:02.760 But again, when you're talking about people that were forced 973 00:49:02.760 --> 00:49:05.639 to get married, which was the dregs of society with 974 00:49:06.239 --> 00:49:09.639 potential prostitutes, they get to Louisiana and they immediately can't 975 00:49:09.639 --> 00:49:11.199 stand each other, so they split. 976 00:49:11.800 --> 00:49:12.920 It just kind of was what it was. 977 00:49:12.960 --> 00:49:14.800 The French didn't care as long as they had French 978 00:49:14.840 --> 00:49:18.159 inhabitants in Louisiana. Who cares what the paperwork said, who's 979 00:49:18.199 --> 00:49:20.239 with who they got there, so they were fine. 980 00:49:20.440 --> 00:49:23.159 But yeah, that's uh. There are certain cultural. 981 00:49:22.760 --> 00:49:25.079 Things that do stem all the way back to the 982 00:49:25.079 --> 00:49:27.239 inception of Louisiana. And then when I found out that 983 00:49:27.280 --> 00:49:32.400 it was a penal colony, I'm like, you know, they. 984 00:49:32.159 --> 00:49:33.559 Failed as a penal colony. 985 00:49:34.079 --> 00:49:38.320 That's why the Britain, that's why Australia actually flourished and 986 00:49:38.320 --> 00:49:41.119 everything because of the British actually treated it as a 987 00:49:41.280 --> 00:49:44.559 colony and didn't just like here you go play with 988 00:49:44.599 --> 00:49:47.199 a wildlife and hope you don't get killed. 989 00:49:47.679 --> 00:49:50.039 And then if you also look at it when it 990 00:49:50.079 --> 00:49:52.320 was a penal colony that was still under the French royalty. 991 00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:56.760 When Napoleon took over, a lot of the royalty decrees 992 00:49:56.840 --> 00:49:58.360 went out the window and so they were pretty much 993 00:49:58.400 --> 00:49:59.480 left to their own devices. 994 00:49:59.639 --> 00:50:02.119 And he sold Louisiana to America. 995 00:50:02.199 --> 00:50:04.400 Yeah, he sold to Thomas Jefferson, which. 996 00:50:04.440 --> 00:50:07.000 He said, I want this Louisiana. Tom Jefferson was like, 997 00:50:07.039 --> 00:50:10.119 what's Louisiana? He says, that's what you to find out, buddy. 998 00:50:10.599 --> 00:50:11.159 Yeah. 999 00:50:11.440 --> 00:50:14.039 Fun things. Then Lewis and Clark made their appearance. But anyway, 1000 00:50:14.880 --> 00:50:17.840 weird side tangents Nation Boycott. I saw you had your 1001 00:50:17.880 --> 00:50:19.480 hand raised. I don't know if you changed your mind 1002 00:50:19.480 --> 00:50:20.280 on the topic or what. 1003 00:50:21.199 --> 00:50:22.960 Yeah, I totally changed my mind. It was just iought 1004 00:50:23.000 --> 00:50:26.599 was interesting. How uh, some like a lot of frontier 1005 00:50:29.199 --> 00:50:31.320 like settling happens from criminals. 1006 00:50:31.760 --> 00:50:33.960 Yeah, And the way that they told the criminals about 1007 00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:35.639 the place. They made it sound like it was just 1008 00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:38.440 this land of opportunity, all this fertile farmland. You're just 1009 00:50:38.519 --> 00:50:40.440 gonna go there and have the best life ever. And 1010 00:50:40.800 --> 00:50:43.840 while that was true at the time, they left out 1011 00:50:43.920 --> 00:50:47.599 the part that it's a by you. It is a swamp. 1012 00:50:47.719 --> 00:50:50.159 The mosquitoes are so thick that you're gonna be breathing 1013 00:50:50.239 --> 00:50:53.480 them in half the time, and you're gonna be forced 1014 00:50:53.480 --> 00:50:55.840 to make it work with no way of escaping, and 1015 00:50:55.920 --> 00:50:58.440 all these things. It just you know, that rose colored 1016 00:50:58.480 --> 00:51:01.400 pedestal and shit Royce, go ahead. 1017 00:51:01.159 --> 00:51:04.760 Brother, alright, So just one thing on words.

It's near Eureka, California, but 1056 00:52:52.800 --> 00:52:54.360 it's pronounced why Rika. 1057 00:52:55.239 --> 00:52:57.079 That that's great so near Eureka. 1058 00:52:57.159 --> 00:53:01.639 You got why Rika, and it's spelled it's not spelled phonetically, 1059 00:53:01.719 --> 00:53:03.760 but it's also not not spell phonetically. 1060 00:53:03.760 --> 00:53:05.679 It's like, uh, it's like that one. 1061 00:53:05.559 --> 00:53:09.280 Chick I met. Her name was La Dasha l a 1062 00:53:09.360 --> 00:53:12.840 dash a like not the word dash, like an actual 1063 00:53:12.920 --> 00:53:16.840 dash because you know, hell yeah, Ladasha. That was a 1064 00:53:16.880 --> 00:53:20.840 whole thing. Also, I never met this person, but a 1065 00:53:20.840 --> 00:53:23.800 friend of mine showed me their cousin a b c 1066 00:53:23.920 --> 00:53:29.280 D A b c D E was their cousin's first name. 1067 00:53:30.480 --> 00:53:32.360 I just lost my ship when you said that. 1068 00:53:32.519 --> 00:53:33.599 I wish I was joking. 1069 00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:36.719 I thought that they were until they showed me like, no, no, 1070 00:53:36.800 --> 00:53:40.239 this is my cousin's actual legal name ob CD. And 1071 00:53:40.280 --> 00:53:46.159 you know that's uh yeah, certainly their their parents did 1072 00:53:46.159 --> 00:53:49.159 not have a very good education. We'll just go with that. 1073 00:53:49.960 --> 00:53:52.039 Your name's obesity and you're fat. 1074 00:53:52.360 --> 00:53:54.400 But no, they were skinny. Because I thought it was 1075 00:53:54.440 --> 00:53:57.400 like ob C. I'm like, bro, you can't know. He 1076 00:53:57.519 --> 00:54:02.519 was like, oh, all right, dope, Tony, what you got. 1077 00:54:03.400 --> 00:54:05.679 Yeah. Going back to some of those other names, there 1078 00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:08.920 is a silent or like a vocalized h and a 1079 00:54:08.920 --> 00:54:12.519 lot of a lot of languages that can be transcribed 1080 00:54:12.559 --> 00:54:15.559 as a G. And I'm pretty sure that's why Swatch 1081 00:54:15.960 --> 00:54:19.960 as a silent G. But Afghanistan is another very famous 1082 00:54:20.039 --> 00:54:24.400 example of that in their language, just pronounced Afrighanistan with 1083 00:54:24.559 --> 00:54:29.199 no actual plosive consonant, so it's actually kind of a 1084 00:54:29.199 --> 00:54:33.159 silent letter almost. And the C in Native American languages, 1085 00:54:33.719 --> 00:54:35.840 this is where the word Tucson comes from. It's a 1086 00:54:35.880 --> 00:54:40.119 glottal stop and it basically ends up not pronounced in English. 1087 00:54:40.320 --> 00:54:42.519 So that's where the silent c's come from. 1088 00:54:43.000 --> 00:54:46.239 Yeah, And then to your point, also, anything of Spanish origin, 1089 00:54:46.360 --> 00:54:50.239 the J and the G also might make an H noise, right, 1090 00:54:50.320 --> 00:54:53.039 like Jorge or Jose, and I mean both of those. 1091 00:54:53.239 --> 00:54:54.920 I never knew that George was Jorge. 1092 00:54:55.280 --> 00:54:57.239 I thought that was a joke, and it's like, no, no, 1093 00:54:57.280 --> 00:54:59.559 that's that's how they pronounced their g's. But then you'll 1094 00:54:59.599 --> 00:55:02.920 also have the Guadaloupe, which is a I don't think 1095 00:55:02.960 --> 00:55:04.440 they pronounced that juadalupe. 1096 00:55:05.119 --> 00:55:07.159 I think they actually pronounced the hard G on that one. 1097 00:55:07.679 --> 00:55:09.519 Yeah, that's hard G except before E. 1098 00:55:09.639 --> 00:55:14.079 And I see. It's linguistics are so fascinating and raven 1099 00:55:14.119 --> 00:55:16.679 as a matter of fact, you have a background in anthropology, 1100 00:55:16.719 --> 00:55:19.280 and linguistics are such an endemic part of that. 1101 00:55:19.920 --> 00:55:21.599 It's it's really interesting, like Sam. 1102 00:55:21.480 --> 00:55:25.199 Was saying earlier, to see how language transfers and how 1103 00:55:25.360 --> 00:55:29.760 cultures transfer as well, and you could find familial groups 1104 00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:32.880 through linguistics over the course of human history, and it's 1105 00:55:33.000 --> 00:55:33.840 very fascinating. 1106 00:55:34.199 --> 00:55:35.639 I see your hand raised. Go ahead, Raven. 1107 00:55:37.239 --> 00:55:41.360 So there's actually a guy on Instagram that does these 1108 00:55:41.559 --> 00:55:46.079 hilarious videos, but he speaks like ten different languages, and 1109 00:55:46.119 --> 00:55:49.159 what he does is he actually finds in the same 1110 00:55:49.280 --> 00:55:52.840 language a bunch of words that have the exact same sound, 1111 00:55:53.000 --> 00:55:57.039 but they mean different things. And he'll put together entire 1112 00:55:57.119 --> 00:55:59.719 sentences where it's like he's like acting as two people, 1113 00:56:00.719 --> 00:56:02.960 but he'll get together in an entire sentence of like, 1114 00:56:04.039 --> 00:56:05.800 you know, the cat went down the road and this 1115 00:56:05.920 --> 00:56:08.239 and that. I'm just making it up, but all of 1116 00:56:08.239 --> 00:56:11.760 the words sound exactly the same, and so he says 1117 00:56:11.760 --> 00:56:14.719 it they might change by just a slight variation. But 1118 00:56:14.800 --> 00:56:18.320 I find that, like he's a great example of in 1119 00:56:18.519 --> 00:56:22.440 even one language, how many words match each other that 1120 00:56:22.599 --> 00:56:26.760 mean totally different things or sound just slightly different. And 1121 00:56:27.039 --> 00:56:28.920 I just was while we were talking about languages. I 1122 00:56:28.960 --> 00:56:30.920 just thought of him and how interesting that was. 1123 00:56:31.559 --> 00:56:32.840 No, I agree one hundred percent. 1124 00:56:33.119 --> 00:56:36.760 One that I saw shows a mean years ago in 1125 00:56:36.840 --> 00:56:41.679 the American English dialect. Anyway, the word buffalo, if you 1126 00:56:41.800 --> 00:56:44.039 put that down on a piece of paper seven times, 1127 00:56:44.039 --> 00:56:49.960 that is a correct sentence. Buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo. 1128 00:56:50.280 --> 00:56:54.960 What that means is a buffalo named buffalo from Buffalo, 1129 00:56:55.079 --> 00:56:59.280 New York, annoys the shit out of other buffalos from Buffalo, 1130 00:56:59.360 --> 00:57:06.320 New York. Apparently that's an actual, grammatically correct sentence. And 1131 00:57:06.360 --> 00:57:08.239 that's just the dumbest shit I have ever heard in 1132 00:57:08.239 --> 00:57:10.039 my life. But then yes, there's tons of languages that 1133 00:57:10.079 --> 00:57:14.639 have words that sound almost identical, if not are identical, 1134 00:57:14.679 --> 00:57:17.280 but it's the inflection and the context that makes them 1135 00:57:17.280 --> 00:57:20.559 have completely different meanings. And I mean, the English language 1136 00:57:20.599 --> 00:57:24.079 is no, no, no different when it comes to that. 1137 00:57:24.440 --> 00:57:28.360 Oh lord, Sam, what you got case in point there 1138 00:57:28.719 --> 00:57:29.159 and there? 1139 00:57:29.840 --> 00:57:33.840 Oh yeah, ile Isle and asle red red red and read. 1140 00:57:34.119 --> 00:57:36.360 It fucked me up. Whenever my French teachers pulled up, 1141 00:57:36.639 --> 00:57:38.559 we were talking about how the French language had some 1142 00:57:38.599 --> 00:57:40.840 words that were difficult, and she's like, okay, y'all want 1143 00:57:40.840 --> 00:57:41.800 to give us such a hard time. 1144 00:57:41.840 --> 00:57:44.039 She wrote on the on the dry erase. 1145 00:57:43.719 --> 00:57:51.039 Board rough though and dough and tough and then through 1146 00:57:52.199 --> 00:57:55.159 and said all of these in with O U G H. 1147 00:57:55.199 --> 00:57:57.840 Explain why that makes sense before you come at me. 1148 00:57:57.880 --> 00:58:00.239 And I was like, damn it, I can't. That was 1149 00:58:00.280 --> 00:58:01.639 a very very good counterpoint. 1150 00:58:02.199 --> 00:58:04.519 You know, language just be like that anyway. 1151 00:58:04.679 --> 00:58:06.320 They don't make no sense. 1152 00:58:06.440 --> 00:58:08.039 Not always, not always. 1153 00:58:09.199 --> 00:58:13.239 With English, if I'm not mistaken, it's noun adjive verb, 1154 00:58:13.920 --> 00:58:18.039 and with Spanish it's uh, the verb adjective noun if 1155 00:58:18.079 --> 00:58:23.599 I'm not mistaken, like the way the the Senate structures. Yeah, 1156 00:58:23.599 --> 00:58:28.159 and that's why. So like you, there's some languages you 1157 00:58:28.199 --> 00:58:32.239 can get an actual little translation and other ones you 1158 00:58:32.960 --> 00:58:37.519 cannot have an actual translation because there's nothing actually translates to. 1159 00:58:38.000 --> 00:58:41.199 Right exactly, nation, boycott what you got, brother. 1160 00:58:42.920 --> 00:58:45.280 I found another one that was was like the buffalo. 1161 00:58:45.559 --> 00:58:49.480 Oh no, it is that that exists exists in that 1162 00:58:49.480 --> 00:58:55.199 that that that exists exists in Okay, Actually the idea 1163 00:58:55.280 --> 00:58:57.960 that something exists is true in the realm where that 1164 00:58:58.159 --> 00:58:59.440 same something exists. 1165 00:59:00.800 --> 00:59:03.719 That is a longer way of explaining. The description was 1166 00:59:03.760 --> 00:59:10.639 shorter than the sentence, I love it. I love it. 1167 00:59:11.039 --> 00:59:13.840 Sometimes languages would be wild, and you know anyway anyway, 1168 00:59:13.840 --> 00:59:15.760 all right, so we've gone way off topic as far 1169 00:59:15.800 --> 00:59:17.760 as the article I have pulled up, let's get back 1170 00:59:17.800 --> 00:59:22.920 into it. As far as the nine hundred billion dollar allotment, No, 1171 00:59:23.159 --> 00:59:25.599 that's not the word budget. Budget's the word. Let's talk 1172 00:59:25.599 --> 00:59:28.760 about it here. The House on Wednesday easily passed the 1173 00:59:28.800 --> 00:59:32.840 Annual Defense Policy Bill, sending the mammoth nine hundred billion 1174 00:59:32.880 --> 00:59:36.599 dollar measure to the Senate ahead of the year end deadline. 1175 00:59:36.920 --> 00:59:41.119 The measure, known as the National Defense Authorization Act, the NDAA, 1176 00:59:41.599 --> 00:59:44.079 passed the lower chamber by a vote of three hundred 1177 00:59:44.119 --> 00:59:47.400 and twelve to one hundred and twelve. Ninety four Democrats 1178 00:59:47.480 --> 00:59:51.320 and eighteen Republicans opposed the bill. I mean, still, even 1179 00:59:51.360 --> 00:59:54.280 with these tin of numbers, three twelve to one twelve, 1180 00:59:54.400 --> 00:59:58.280 that's that's handily passing. That's not even that's not close. 1181 00:59:59.079 --> 01:00:02.480 The NDAA, a traditionally bipartisan bill that lays out defense 1182 01:00:02.559 --> 01:00:05.519 priorities for the next year, would increase pay for service members. 1183 01:00:06.079 --> 01:00:08.840 A I'm not mad at that, provide some military a 1184 01:00:08.960 --> 01:00:12.800 to Ukraine, and I'm kind of neutral on that. These 1185 01:00:12.840 --> 01:00:15.760 days to be completely honest with you, restrict US investment 1186 01:00:15.840 --> 01:00:19.119 in China and fully repeal sanctions on Syria. 1187 01:00:19.239 --> 01:00:22.760 Okay, I'm here for portions of that. 1188 01:00:22.840 --> 01:00:27.079 I suppose, among other things, it also contained provisions or 1189 01:00:27.159 --> 01:00:29.800 a provision to withhold a portion of Defense Secretary Pete 1190 01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:33.679 Hegseth's travel budget until he turns over unedited footage of 1191 01:00:33.800 --> 01:00:37.760 US military strikes against alleged drug votes in the Caribbean 1192 01:00:38.039 --> 01:00:41.119 and copies of the orders behind the operations. Yo. I 1193 01:00:41.159 --> 01:00:43.039 don't know how many people are keeping up with South Park, 1194 01:00:43.280 --> 01:00:47.119 but they just dog walk Pete heg Seth for basically 1195 01:00:47.159 --> 01:00:50.079 being a glorified content creator who doesn't do anything as 1196 01:00:50.119 --> 01:00:52.880 far as the National Defense is concerned. I thought it 1197 01:00:52.920 --> 01:00:57.639 was funny that. Being said, I don't think he's gonna 1198 01:00:57.679 --> 01:01:01.280 really feel the hit as far as stopping. 1199 01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:01.800 His travel budget. 1200 01:01:02.639 --> 01:01:06.280 The footage of the boat that was getting hit, I 1201 01:01:06.320 --> 01:01:08.280 didn't think that there was many edits that were done 1202 01:01:08.280 --> 01:01:11.119 to that it got hit. There was two dudes that 1203 01:01:11.400 --> 01:01:13.559 you know, either got blown off the boat or jumped 1204 01:01:13.559 --> 01:01:15.840 off the boat, whatever the case. At that point they 1205 01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:20.039 were unarmed, sure, and then they sent another round and 1206 01:01:20.079 --> 01:01:20.599 they got him. 1207 01:01:21.079 --> 01:01:24.480 So like that that's how war is done. 1208 01:01:25.400 --> 01:01:30.639 Yeah, and then also there's this whole argument to say that, well, 1209 01:01:30.679 --> 01:01:34.000 you know, in combat in Afghanistan, when an armed enemy 1210 01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:36.639 combatant would be shot, he would drop his weapon. We 1211 01:01:36.639 --> 01:01:39.079 were supposed to render aid to them. This is a 1212 01:01:39.119 --> 01:01:42.519 war crime. First of all, the law of naval combat 1213 01:01:42.639 --> 01:01:46.199 and the law of land based combat is very different. 1214 01:01:46.239 --> 01:01:46.599 First off. 1215 01:01:46.679 --> 01:01:49.000 Second off, we didn't exactly have naval assets in the 1216 01:01:49.039 --> 01:01:50.960 area that was gonna come scoop these dudes up to 1217 01:01:51.000 --> 01:01:54.440 give them, you know, life saving treatment. If anything, we 1218 01:01:54.519 --> 01:01:58.519 prevented them from drowning to death. So I'm not saying 1219 01:01:58.519 --> 01:02:00.320 that this was some sort of a mercy by any means. 1220 01:02:00.639 --> 01:02:05.239 This is how warfare is conducted. And let's also there's 1221 01:02:05.280 --> 01:02:07.719 also been this whole argument to say that the people 1222 01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:12.599 that were piloting this craft were all they were forced 1223 01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:16.119 there because the cartel had their families as hostages, and 1224 01:02:16.119 --> 01:02:18.239 if they didn't deliver these drugs, they would have their 1225 01:02:18.280 --> 01:02:20.920 families would have been killed. In all these things, even 1226 01:02:21.039 --> 01:02:26.079 though by trenda Arhuahwa's admission and Maduro's admission, the boat 1227 01:02:26.119 --> 01:02:28.480 is piloted by at least five people and they are 1228 01:02:28.519 --> 01:02:30.679 all highly I'm not going to say highly paid. They're 1229 01:02:30.719 --> 01:02:32.719 not making like a million dollars per run by any means, 1230 01:02:33.000 --> 01:02:36.000 but they are very well paid and they're pretty apt 1231 01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:37.960 to be on the boat to do the things. You 1232 01:02:37.960 --> 01:02:40.079 have a navigator, you have a pilot, you have a copilot, 1233 01:02:40.079 --> 01:02:42.639 and you have two engineers on every single boat that 1234 01:02:42.639 --> 01:02:46.440 the Narcos have sent out from Venezuela. That's by their admission, 1235 01:02:46.519 --> 01:02:49.480 not by US intelligence. So I'm having a hard time 1236 01:02:49.519 --> 01:02:53.920 believing that these well paid individuals were forced into that position. 1237 01:02:54.039 --> 01:02:57.920 I think that they saw it as a business opportunity, which, okay, 1238 01:02:58.199 --> 01:03:00.320 I'm not going to knock them for it. I in it, 1239 01:03:00.880 --> 01:03:03.800 But also knowing that America has declared war on you, 1240 01:03:04.280 --> 01:03:06.280 and knowing that there's this is in the first boat 1241 01:03:06.320 --> 01:03:08.480 that got hit, like you know for a fact that 1242 01:03:08.480 --> 01:03:10.400 if you go out in these waters you're gonna get hit. 1243 01:03:10.920 --> 01:03:15.199 You chose to go out, so you got hit. I'm 1244 01:03:15.280 --> 01:03:18.320 having a hard time finding the connection to make people 1245 01:03:18.360 --> 01:03:21.119 lose their shit on this, But maybe I'm just missing it. 1246 01:03:21.159 --> 01:03:25.280 I don't know, Nation boycott what you got, all. 1247 01:03:25.280 --> 01:03:27.760 Right, So I don't think I don't really have an 1248 01:03:27.800 --> 01:03:29.519 opinion on if it was a war crime or not, 1249 01:03:29.679 --> 01:03:33.599 because they were done anyways, it doesn't matter, right, it 1250 01:03:33.639 --> 01:03:38.360 doesn't matter. However, I will say that the UCMJ supposedly 1251 01:03:38.639 --> 01:03:43.639 the part that talks about disobeying blatantly illegal or orders. Uh, 1252 01:03:43.920 --> 01:03:46.360 one of the what they use as an example is 1253 01:03:46.400 --> 01:03:49.079 firing upon the shipwreck. So they were like, you know, 1254 01:03:49.119 --> 01:03:52.360 you shall never you shall never follow in order that's 1255 01:03:52.400 --> 01:03:56.599 blatantly illegal, such as firing upon the shipwreck a ship 1256 01:03:57.199 --> 01:04:00.400 firing upon the shipwrecked. Right, it's just underst that they're 1257 01:04:00.440 --> 01:04:02.920 like out of the battle, right, And I guess you 1258 01:04:02.960 --> 01:04:05.079 hit them on the missile. You just wrecked their ship. 1259 01:04:05.159 --> 01:04:07.760 So those guys were the definition of shipwrecked, and we 1260 01:04:07.800 --> 01:04:09.679 did fire on them. But I just think it was 1261 01:04:09.679 --> 01:04:14.119 more funny how fast Trump and hag Seth there through 1262 01:04:14.159 --> 01:04:17.880 that admiral under the bus, Like yeah, fast as fuck, 1263 01:04:18.199 --> 01:04:20.639 And like, I think it's more funny that. I don't 1264 01:04:20.679 --> 01:04:22.840 know the whole justification they do use for the drugs, Well, 1265 01:04:22.880 --> 01:04:27.239 it's a good justification, like fuck Fetimoh, my kid's mom 1266 01:04:27.400 --> 01:04:31.599 actually just like disappeared about a year ago. She was 1267 01:04:31.599 --> 01:04:36.800 a fentanyl addict. Yeah from her in about a year. Yeah, yeah, 1268 01:04:36.800 --> 01:04:39.599 so it's fentanyl, fentanyl college drug dealers. Most of the 1269 01:04:39.599 --> 01:04:44.440 fentanyl manufacturing happens in Mexico and Colombia, right, very very little, 1270 01:04:44.480 --> 01:04:47.760 if any, happens in Venezuela. And mostly the drugs from 1271 01:04:47.880 --> 01:04:53.960 Venezuela actually go to other Caribbean islands, yeah, like Cuba 1272 01:04:54.039 --> 01:04:57.880 and Jamaica, and then also to Africa for into Europe. 1273 01:04:58.119 --> 01:05:01.360 So very little Cuban or venezuel Than drugs actually come 1274 01:05:01.639 --> 01:05:06.000 to America, So that's fair. Premise is kind of bullshit. 1275 01:05:06.119 --> 01:05:08.519 But I also agree. I don't like Maduro, and I've 1276 01:05:08.639 --> 01:05:13.000 known Venezuelan's I had a Venezuelan exchange student stay at 1277 01:05:13.000 --> 01:05:15.320 my house for a couple months when I was in 1278 01:05:15.320 --> 01:05:19.599 the Navy, and yeah, his his terrible family life in Venezuela. 1279 01:05:19.599 --> 01:05:22.400 He did not like Maduro. They need a better justification 1280 01:05:22.480 --> 01:05:25.320 than the drugs. But I do agree that Monduro shouldn't 1281 01:05:25.320 --> 01:05:27.840 be in power, and it's not good to have a 1282 01:05:27.880 --> 01:05:30.559 hostile government this close to US. 1283 01:05:31.679 --> 01:05:33.320 I mean, I would agree, but then I mean, hell, 1284 01:05:33.440 --> 01:05:36.039 Mexico is a very hostile government and they're on our border. 1285 01:05:36.320 --> 01:05:39.119 Was it thirty two assassinations in the last election that 1286 01:05:39.119 --> 01:05:42.159 took place. I mean, while I fullheartedly agree with what 1287 01:05:42.199 --> 01:05:43.039 you just said. 1288 01:05:43.079 --> 01:05:46.599 I think we should be in Mexico instead of Venezuela, Right, 1289 01:05:46.679 --> 01:05:48.440 I really do. I would be okay with a war 1290 01:05:48.480 --> 01:05:51.199 in Venezuela, more more in Mexico than I am. 1291 01:05:51.320 --> 01:05:52.400 War in Venezuela. 1292 01:05:52.519 --> 01:05:56.719 Right, But Mexico doesn't have oil. Venezuela got that old. 1293 01:05:58.199 --> 01:06:00.239 Yeah, I just I don't even know if it's about 1294 01:06:00.239 --> 01:06:01.760 the oil. I don't know what it's about it. 1295 01:06:02.119 --> 01:06:03.760 Maybe I'm wrong and it has nothing to do with 1296 01:06:03.800 --> 01:06:04.199 the oil. 1297 01:06:05.599 --> 01:06:09.000 But because we have oil, and oil is cheap right now, 1298 01:06:09.079 --> 01:06:09.679 you know what I mean. 1299 01:06:09.760 --> 01:06:12.239 I think oil is cheap right now, and I don't 1300 01:06:12.280 --> 01:06:14.400 think we really needed oil in a while. 1301 01:06:15.400 --> 01:06:17.559 It's not about needing it. It's more like securing the 1302 01:06:17.599 --> 01:06:21.639 future investment, you know, same reason. Like Okay, Iraq, for instance, 1303 01:06:21.960 --> 01:06:25.079 we didn't need to go to Iraq. Saddam was not 1304 01:06:25.119 --> 01:06:28.559 really fucking with America whatsoever. Right, it was to protect 1305 01:06:28.639 --> 01:06:30.920 American interest in for an oil as well as some 1306 01:06:30.960 --> 01:06:36.440 other key strategic things. And that's fine, it's cool. That 1307 01:06:36.559 --> 01:06:39.760 being said, it kind of put us on a good 1308 01:06:39.760 --> 01:06:44.159 footing for what's currently going down in Iraq. Now. Iraq 1309 01:06:44.239 --> 01:06:48.119 is kicking out the Russian oil drillers and asking Exxon, 1310 01:06:48.280 --> 01:06:51.960 and I want to say, it's is it Shell or Chevron. 1311 01:06:52.840 --> 01:06:54.199 We'll get to an article here in a minut to 1312 01:06:54.199 --> 01:06:56.800 talk more about it. They're asking American oil drillers to 1313 01:06:56.840 --> 01:07:00.000 come in and set up shop in the abandoned oil 1314 01:07:00.000 --> 01:07:02.480 fields they just kicked Russia out of. And it's not 1315 01:07:02.519 --> 01:07:04.599 because Iraq and Russia had some sort of a falling 1316 01:07:04.639 --> 01:07:07.079 out by any means. It's because the Russian sanctions have 1317 01:07:07.159 --> 01:07:10.239 gone so far that now Iraq can't fund that. But what, 1318 01:07:10.280 --> 01:07:11.440 we're gonna get to all of it in a minute. 1319 01:07:11.480 --> 01:07:12.840 We're gonna get to all of it here in a bit. 1320 01:07:12.880 --> 01:07:15.800 But yeah, and I'm not for the justification of us 1321 01:07:15.800 --> 01:07:18.440 going to war Venezuela. I'm not a big fan of Maduro, 1322 01:07:18.920 --> 01:07:21.159 but what skin is it off of my nose? If 1323 01:07:21.159 --> 01:07:24.320 he is a despot to his people like that, that is, 1324 01:07:24.639 --> 01:07:26.440 I will lose zero amount of sleep on that, the 1325 01:07:26.480 --> 01:07:29.280 same way I lost lost no sleep over a lot 1326 01:07:29.280 --> 01:07:31.079 of the heinous shit going on in the Middle East, 1327 01:07:31.239 --> 01:07:34.239 or in Africa or in China. Like, yeah, this stuff 1328 01:07:34.280 --> 01:07:37.840 should be stopped based on a humanitarian scale. I agree 1329 01:07:37.840 --> 01:07:41.480 with that America doesn't need to get involved in these things, right, 1330 01:07:41.519 --> 01:07:46.519 So I mean he is hostile. Yes, the drugs I 1331 01:07:46.559 --> 01:07:49.159 think are a justification. It's not like you said. I 1332 01:07:49.159 --> 01:07:51.079 don't think it's a very strong one. I think that 1333 01:07:51.159 --> 01:07:53.960 they whenever they listed that all cartel groups are now 1334 01:07:53.960 --> 01:07:55.440 listed as terrorist organizations. 1335 01:07:55.760 --> 01:07:57.320 I have no problem with that either. 1336 01:07:57.400 --> 01:08:01.119 For the record, it's not like it's not like Trenda Rawa, 1337 01:08:01.280 --> 01:08:03.639 which is one of the only ones. The other ones, 1338 01:08:03.679 --> 01:08:08.119 the Cartel the Solis or the Cartel of the Sun, 1339 01:08:08.159 --> 01:08:12.840 which all ye, they're not even the two biggest or 1340 01:08:12.920 --> 01:08:15.960 most vicious cartels that we have to deal with. 1341 01:08:16.319 --> 01:08:17.279 Those are the only two. 1342 01:08:17.319 --> 01:08:19.439 If I'm not mistaken, to come out of Venezuela, we 1343 01:08:19.520 --> 01:08:21.840 could be going after the Sineloa cartel right now. 1344 01:08:22.239 --> 01:08:23.680 We could be going after. 1345 01:08:24.000 --> 01:08:28.439 Uh what is the uh J and g uh it's 1346 01:08:28.479 --> 01:08:31.119 the new ship. 1347 01:08:31.159 --> 01:08:32.000 It's out of Mexico. 1348 01:08:32.079 --> 01:08:33.880 It's uh he's new generation. 1349 01:08:34.239 --> 01:08:36.119 That's the one that's we could be going after them. 1350 01:08:36.199 --> 01:08:39.000 They are brutal cartels that are operating. 1351 01:08:39.479 --> 01:08:43.520 Yeah, it's business with us, right, Mexico listens to us 1352 01:08:43.560 --> 01:08:46.840 for the most part. Venezuela does business with Iran and 1353 01:08:46.960 --> 01:08:51.119 China and Russia and gets projects from them, right exactly. 1354 01:08:51.479 --> 01:08:54.760 So again, I'm not I am not necessarily all for 1355 01:08:55.079 --> 01:08:56.520 us going to war with Venezuela. 1356 01:08:56.640 --> 01:08:57.640 I will say. 1357 01:08:59.640 --> 01:09:03.079 I I will say that if we were to invade Venezuela, 1358 01:09:03.640 --> 01:09:05.600 the soldiers in the Marines that are part of the 1359 01:09:05.600 --> 01:09:10.079 ground forces are gonna have some fun. Just take that 1360 01:09:10.119 --> 01:09:13.079 to whatever metrics you want to on that one, because 1361 01:09:13.199 --> 01:09:17.600 Venezuela has it's a gorgeous place with gorgeous inhabitants. It's 1362 01:09:17.640 --> 01:09:18.119 all quick. 1363 01:09:18.319 --> 01:09:21.119 Think about when we went to in Iraq and Afghanistan 1364 01:09:21.279 --> 01:09:25.119 what that did for the region and the chaos that 1365 01:09:25.239 --> 01:09:28.359 spawned in the region. Yeah, right, now we're going to 1366 01:09:28.479 --> 01:09:31.880 try to do that in our region. Right, Like they 1367 01:09:31.880 --> 01:09:34.079 couldn't get us from over there, right, they could go 1368 01:09:34.119 --> 01:09:36.560 and they could flood up Europe, and they could go 1369 01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:39.520 and cause terrorism in Africa like they have and spawn 1370 01:09:39.520 --> 01:09:42.119 off those offshoots. Now we're gonna do that over here. 1371 01:09:42.520 --> 01:09:44.680 And we think we can contain it. We couldn't contain 1372 01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:46.680 it in Iraq and Afghanistan. We think we contain it 1373 01:09:46.720 --> 01:09:47.119 over here. 1374 01:09:47.319 --> 01:09:47.920 That's crazy. 1375 01:09:48.359 --> 01:09:49.000 I agree that. 1376 01:09:49.319 --> 01:09:51.600 I don't even think it's about the containment though. I 1377 01:09:51.640 --> 01:09:54.760 think that's we're trying to make a prolonged war happen. 1378 01:09:54.760 --> 01:09:57.560 And we don't seeing the chaos if you did a 1379 01:09:57.640 --> 01:10:01.000 regime change over there, if you collapse government, it would 1380 01:10:01.039 --> 01:10:02.039 lead to chaos. 1381 01:10:02.199 --> 01:10:03.960 And they're hostiles. Not either. 1382 01:10:04.000 --> 01:10:06.960 People are over there even like cheering us to come 1383 01:10:07.000 --> 01:10:07.680 in right now. 1384 01:10:08.239 --> 01:10:11.479 Not necessarily, they're not cheering your boy, Maduro. But they're 1385 01:10:11.520 --> 01:10:13.840 also not cheering us either. They just they want a 1386 01:10:13.840 --> 01:10:16.960 regime change. They for the most part, from what I 1387 01:10:16.960 --> 01:10:18.600 could tell, they're not even mad if it has to 1388 01:10:18.600 --> 01:10:21.000 happen violently, but they want it to happen for them, 1389 01:10:21.079 --> 01:10:24.399 by them, right. But it's not like this is the 1390 01:10:24.399 --> 01:10:27.399 first regime change that we've done in South America. I 1391 01:10:27.479 --> 01:10:30.840 even research two thousand like overt. 1392 01:10:31.319 --> 01:10:33.319 Yeah, most of the time we do it secretly. 1393 01:10:33.520 --> 01:10:36.680 Which is why CIA operations are happening in Venezuela right now. 1394 01:10:36.880 --> 01:10:39.760 You'd be amazed how patriotic people get when they get invaded, 1395 01:10:39.840 --> 01:10:41.640 doesn't matter who invades them. 1396 01:10:42.000 --> 01:10:43.920 Very true, very true. So, like I said, I'm not 1397 01:10:44.119 --> 01:10:48.520 I'm not inherently for a ground based attack in Venezuela. 1398 01:10:49.079 --> 01:10:52.520 I'm not inherently Again, well, I guess I'm more on 1399 01:10:52.560 --> 01:10:55.399 the against its side than for its side, all things considered. 1400 01:10:56.560 --> 01:10:58.800 I don't know. I think that this could be the 1401 01:10:58.800 --> 01:11:01.800 new boogeyman that Trump tries to get people to rally behind. 1402 01:11:02.079 --> 01:11:03.880 I'm saying I would say I'm for it. 1403 01:11:03.880 --> 01:11:06.159 I'm on the fence. I'm for it, But I don't 1404 01:11:06.159 --> 01:11:08.960 think they've thought it through. That's my issue with it. 1405 01:11:09.039 --> 01:11:11.079 I don't think they've encompassed all of it. 1406 01:11:11.800 --> 01:11:15.680 Yeah, I'm not I'm very much for a regime change, 1407 01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:18.159 and I'm even for America having a hand in the 1408 01:11:18.199 --> 01:11:21.159 regime change. I gotta say I'm more on the side 1409 01:11:21.159 --> 01:11:26.800 of against a land based assault into Venezuela using US forces. 1410 01:11:26.840 --> 01:11:30.119 That's all. Now, if we're CIA type things or even 1411 01:11:30.119 --> 01:11:33.279 from the air or whatever else, fine cool. But for 1412 01:11:33.359 --> 01:11:37.079 America to get involved in a kinetic way on Venezuela proper, 1413 01:11:38.079 --> 01:11:41.880 I don't see that inherently going well either A. It 1414 01:11:41.920 --> 01:11:46.159 gets wrapped up so quickly, so quickly, and now they're 1415 01:11:46.239 --> 01:11:49.159 left in a power vacuum. And then we will install 1416 01:11:49.239 --> 01:11:52.199 a leader that is very pro democracy and pro making 1417 01:11:52.239 --> 01:11:54.880 deals in America happen, and that'll be great until two 1418 01:11:54.880 --> 01:11:58.479 elections from now, and then we're right back to square one. 1419 01:11:58.920 --> 01:12:00.960 And it's it's even of a pain in the ass 1420 01:12:01.000 --> 01:12:04.479 because we have hooked them up in so many ways. 1421 01:12:04.680 --> 01:12:08.319 It's yeah, it's messy. It's messy. Like you said, anytime 1422 01:12:08.359 --> 01:12:10.640 there's a regime change that America has been involved with, 1423 01:12:10.760 --> 01:12:14.319 it's never a clean cut type of situation. Because we 1424 01:12:14.399 --> 01:12:16.600 also could be on the precipice of a color war 1425 01:12:16.640 --> 01:12:19.159 happening in Venezuela if that was to take place, right 1426 01:12:19.239 --> 01:12:22.399 because all these Maduro supporters, who for the record, there's 1427 01:12:23.000 --> 01:12:26.239 on on paper there's not many, but there are, there 1428 01:12:26.279 --> 01:12:28.800 really are. And then also there's tons of people that 1429 01:12:28.840 --> 01:12:32.279 are starving right now that hate Mandureau. So if we 1430 01:12:32.279 --> 01:12:34.159 were to do that and there'd be a power vacuum, 1431 01:12:34.239 --> 01:12:38.640 we put in a democratically elected quote unquote democratically elected 1432 01:12:38.720 --> 01:12:43.920 leader into Venezuela, the next election could spawn a Venezuelan 1433 01:12:44.000 --> 01:12:49.399 civil war, which again it's not like South America is, 1434 01:12:50.199 --> 01:12:52.439 you know, it's not like they haven't had a civil 1435 01:12:52.479 --> 01:12:55.520 war or two on the continent throughout the past century. 1436 01:12:55.560 --> 01:12:58.359 It's just I don't know. I would like to think 1437 01:12:58.359 --> 01:13:00.439 that we're beyond that. But then, like you said, it's 1438 01:13:00.439 --> 01:13:03.439 also about their international ties, right, it's not just Venezuela 1439 01:13:03.479 --> 01:13:06.880 handling their shit in house, Because if that was to happen, China, Russia, 1440 01:13:06.920 --> 01:13:09.920 Iran bricks just let's just go ahead and throw bricks out. 1441 01:13:10.199 --> 01:13:12.359 Bricks would have a say so and how that Color 1442 01:13:12.399 --> 01:13:14.880 War would take place, So would America and the West 1443 01:13:14.920 --> 01:13:18.560 of NATO and all. It just would evolve into I'm 1444 01:13:18.560 --> 01:13:20.760 not saying it would turn into World War three. I'm 1445 01:13:20.800 --> 01:13:24.439 saying it would add one more match or one more 1446 01:13:24.520 --> 01:13:27.079 nail on the coffinto what could eventually spawn into an 1447 01:13:27.239 --> 01:13:30.279 actual true World War three type of scenario. 1448 01:13:30.560 --> 01:13:32.760 We did a ground war in Venezuela. I don't think 1449 01:13:32.840 --> 01:13:35.840 China and Russia would directly get involved. They pretty much. 1450 01:13:35.880 --> 01:13:38.119 I think they basically told Venezuela they were on their own. 1451 01:13:38.239 --> 01:13:40.640 But if we did collapse and there was any type 1452 01:13:40.640 --> 01:13:43.800 of chaos, Russia and China would definitely capitalize on that. 1453 01:13:44.439 --> 01:13:46.880 Yes they would in the Color War. Oh, they wouldn't 1454 01:13:46.880 --> 01:13:49.399 get involved in a connectic war with American troops in 1455 01:13:49.479 --> 01:13:51.880 Venezuela by any means. They would wait until that was 1456 01:13:51.920 --> 01:13:53.560 all wrapped up, and then they would wait for an 1457 01:13:53.600 --> 01:13:56.439 election or two, maybe three later, and then they would 1458 01:13:56.439 --> 01:13:58.079 have their operatives go in there and start it from 1459 01:13:58.119 --> 01:14:01.039 the backside. And I mean, that's that's what I'm saying 1460 01:14:01.039 --> 01:14:04.079 it might be U it might look good in the 1461 01:14:04.119 --> 01:14:07.319 short term, given another ten to fifteen, maybe even twenty years, 1462 01:14:07.359 --> 01:14:10.199 and we're having a whole other conversation again from a 1463 01:14:10.239 --> 01:14:12.600 South American country that America stuckor knows in the business 1464 01:14:12.680 --> 01:14:14.000 of I don't know. 1465 01:14:15.239 --> 01:14:19.560 And again and now it's here in not Ukraine, right, it's. 1466 01:14:19.399 --> 01:14:20.800 Just on the other side of the Gulf, you know 1467 01:14:20.840 --> 01:14:23.159 what I mean. And I mean, yeah, the drugs, I'm 1468 01:14:23.199 --> 01:14:25.159 not a fan of that either. And even if those 1469 01:14:25.199 --> 01:14:28.119 drugs were all making it to America, Okay, cool, you're 1470 01:14:28.119 --> 01:14:31.119 trying to stop that. But just because you got that 1471 01:14:31.159 --> 01:14:33.399 one ship doesn't mean there wasn't nine more that made 1472 01:14:33.399 --> 01:14:36.159 it through. It's all about the optics, right, And that's 1473 01:14:36.159 --> 01:14:38.199 how the drug the war on drugs has always been. 1474 01:14:38.560 --> 01:14:40.720 You're gonna be on camera showing you just got this 1475 01:14:41.199 --> 01:14:45.279 sixty four tons of cocaine from this semi submersible submarine 1476 01:14:45.279 --> 01:14:47.680 and all this there was ten more that made it 1477 01:14:47.720 --> 01:14:50.239 to their destinations. But you're having the biggest photo op 1478 01:14:50.239 --> 01:14:52.239 ever in this big victory, and all the cops are 1479 01:14:52.239 --> 01:14:54.600 gonna be lined out with all the drugs. The Mayor's 1480 01:14:54.600 --> 01:14:56.359 gonna give a big speech and he'll win the next 1481 01:14:56.359 --> 01:14:58.960 election over this one, bust. That was all for the 1482 01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:01.439 optics and the and the cartels know that they just 1483 01:15:01.520 --> 01:15:04.720 charged that to the game. To be completely honest, it's yeah, 1484 01:15:04.960 --> 01:15:08.319 it's it's all for the show, you know. I don't know. 1485 01:15:08.359 --> 01:15:10.159 We'll see what chakes out of Venezuela. We are going 1486 01:15:10.199 --> 01:15:11.960 to talk more about some things in Venezuela here in 1487 01:15:11.960 --> 01:15:13.800 a bit, go ahead, sam. 1488 01:15:17.760 --> 01:15:19.039 My bad, I'm I'm sorry. 1489 01:15:19.079 --> 01:15:20.119 I forgot. 1490 01:15:21.199 --> 01:15:23.520 Where I was texting my buddy. 1491 01:15:23.560 --> 01:15:24.359 I apologize. 1492 01:15:25.279 --> 01:15:25.520 Well. 1493 01:15:25.560 --> 01:15:30.920 Talking about Venezuela and everything got me thinking about the 1494 01:15:30.920 --> 01:15:34.960 the Banana Wars and everything. Perfect example which I dropped 1495 01:15:35.000 --> 01:15:40.520 a picture of the captured flag of Augustus Caesar. 1496 01:15:40.840 --> 01:15:43.840 I can't think of the dude's last name. Oh, he 1497 01:15:43.920 --> 01:15:45.479 was the president of nicol Ugua. 1498 01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:48.039 I believe I might be wrong, but they got a 1499 01:15:48.079 --> 01:15:51.479 picture of his flag and it's all these it's the 1500 01:15:51.520 --> 01:15:53.600 moones and they're looking pimp nasty. 1501 01:15:53.720 --> 01:15:55.600 I dropped it in the chat.

We used 1512 01:16:31.039 --> 01:16:32.239 to go there for field trips and ship. 1513 01:16:33.159 --> 01:16:35.920 You lucky motherfucker. I didn't know what was in there though. 1514 01:16:35.960 --> 01:16:38.359 What is it a Missouri that. 1515 01:16:38.479 --> 01:16:40.720 Has a Nazi U boat in the middle of the 1516 01:16:40.760 --> 01:16:41.399 fucking lake. 1517 01:16:43.560 --> 01:16:45.760 I'm trying to think it's the only captured U boat 1518 01:16:45.800 --> 01:16:48.199 that they got and somehow they transported for it's a 1519 01:16:48.319 --> 01:16:49.199 museum as well. 1520 01:16:49.600 --> 01:16:52.520 I'm not sure what I think it's might be. It 1521 01:16:52.600 --> 01:16:54.439 might be, but yeah, So the USS Kid, for. 1522 01:16:54.439 --> 01:16:57.319 Anybody who doesn't know, is a destroyer, one of the 1523 01:16:57.319 --> 01:17:00.239 ones that was cranked out like clockwork from World War Two. 1524 01:17:00.600 --> 01:17:04.319 Because their mascot is Captain Kidd, the famous pirate, they 1525 01:17:04.319 --> 01:17:07.079 had to get special permission from the US Navy during. 1526 01:17:07.399 --> 01:17:11.239 A private tier. It was a private tier, a. 1527 01:17:11.119 --> 01:17:14.119 Private tier, which is literally just a pirate that has 1528 01:17:14.119 --> 01:17:15.439 a license to be a pirate. 1529 01:17:15.520 --> 01:17:17.920 I'm not judging. The man was making his dollar bills. 1530 01:17:17.960 --> 01:17:20.079 But my point is, yeah, the USS kid had to 1531 01:17:20.079 --> 01:17:22.000 get special permission from the Department of the Navy to 1532 01:17:22.039 --> 01:17:25.239 fly the Jolly Roger and not be seen as a 1533 01:17:25.279 --> 01:17:27.800 pirate vessel, which to your point, I think is pretty 1534 01:17:27.800 --> 01:17:29.199 cool anyway. 1535 01:17:30.399 --> 01:17:34.079 Fun which is funny because I like Pirates and everything, 1536 01:17:34.880 --> 01:17:40.079 you know, Black Flag, the uh, the Assassin's games, they 1537 01:17:40.119 --> 01:17:44.319 actually have a lot of like actual historical truths in it, 1538 01:17:44.439 --> 01:17:48.600 like based on uh the Pirates, the Gentleman uh, you 1539 01:17:48.680 --> 01:17:51.199 know his buddy Bonnet that you only see a couple 1540 01:17:51.239 --> 01:17:53.319 of times in the game then he goes up. 1541 01:17:53.600 --> 01:17:56.279 Yeah, he was actually called the Gentleman pirate. 1542 01:17:56.560 --> 01:18:00.239 Uh. He actually begged for his life and every thing, 1543 01:18:00.600 --> 01:18:03.960 though his execution was stalled like postpone three or four 1544 01:18:03.960 --> 01:18:07.239 times ultimately that he was supposed to be parton but 1545 01:18:07.359 --> 01:18:10.119 ultimately the party never came or like there was some 1546 01:18:10.239 --> 01:18:13.439 backstage politics because he was he was the son of 1547 01:18:13.439 --> 01:18:16.239 a wealthy plantation owner and everything. 1548 01:18:16.920 --> 01:18:20.520 And yeah, I like Pirates, oh no. 1549 01:18:20.520 --> 01:18:23.479 I do. And the Assassin's Creeds games they do stick 1550 01:18:23.520 --> 01:18:26.479 to at least some historical narratives, but then they also 1551 01:18:26.520 --> 01:18:27.960 take it to the rem of fan fit to make 1552 01:18:27.960 --> 01:18:29.760 the game more interesting. That's what we would call them 1553 01:18:29.800 --> 01:18:33.119 creative liberties. But yeah, a lot of the characters are 1554 01:18:33.199 --> 01:18:34.720 actual historical figures for sure. 1555 01:18:35.319 --> 01:18:40.199 I just got the jackdaw a completely maxed upgraded, and 1556 01:18:40.319 --> 01:18:44.039 I'm going I'm going to go after the legendary ships now, bro. 1557 01:18:44.159 --> 01:18:46.479 I got the jackdaw as upgrade as I ever could. 1558 01:18:46.520 --> 01:18:48.479 That was the last game of Assassin's Creed that I 1559 01:18:48.520 --> 01:18:50.279 played start to finish, I might add right, and this 1560 01:18:50.359 --> 01:18:53.119 was years ago. I got the jackdaw as upgrade as 1561 01:18:53.119 --> 01:18:55.600 I could, and I tried going after a legendary ship. 1562 01:18:55.800 --> 01:18:57.600 I tried hitting it with the mortars from Afar and 1563 01:18:57.640 --> 01:18:59.560 then trying to get close and doing the things. Bro 1564 01:18:59.760 --> 01:19:02.800 It ate my lunch every time I attempted the mission 1565 01:19:03.000 --> 01:19:03.920 without fail. 1566 01:19:04.319 --> 01:19:05.159 My favorite one. 1567 01:19:05.760 --> 01:19:07.680 I've only ever been able to beat it one time, 1568 01:19:07.840 --> 01:19:11.399 and my ship wasn't even fully upgraded. I got really lucky, 1569 01:19:11.439 --> 01:19:16.439 but I was on my Xbox. It was the double one. 1570 01:19:16.560 --> 01:19:18.680 The trick is to back up and let them shoot 1571 01:19:18.720 --> 01:19:22.680 each other, and I know they are going to be 1572 01:19:22.680 --> 01:19:26.960 the first one I attempt and everything tomorrow, and I'm 1573 01:19:27.039 --> 01:19:29.880 really excited and I'm doing it for Chesty. 1574 01:19:30.399 --> 01:19:33.960 There you go, there you go, all right side tangents aside. 1575 01:19:34.000 --> 01:19:35.119 Let's get back into it here. 1576 01:19:35.760 --> 01:19:36.039 Uh. 1577 01:19:36.119 --> 01:19:38.000 We talked about heg seth cool cool cool. 1578 01:19:38.319 --> 01:19:41.439 The bill had barely cleared a key procedural vote just 1579 01:19:41.520 --> 01:19:44.159 hours earlier. House leadership held the vote open for more 1580 01:19:44.199 --> 01:19:47.479 than an hour as Speaker Mike Johnson, Republican from Louisiana, 1581 01:19:47.520 --> 01:19:51.359 persuaded Representatives Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Bobert, and Anna Paul 1582 01:19:51.439 --> 01:19:54.399 Luna and Tim Burch excuse me to flip their no 1583 01:19:54.560 --> 01:19:57.399 votes to yes. They said they did so after receiving 1584 01:19:57.439 --> 01:20:01.800 assurances from GOP leadership and administration of Thisish. Representative Thomas 1585 01:20:01.840 --> 01:20:05.199 Massey from Kentucky was the only Republican to vote no 1586 01:20:05.520 --> 01:20:07.960 on the rule. Yeah, Massy's out there doing whatever mass 1587 01:20:07.960 --> 01:20:09.840 he wants to do. And I'm not saying that negatively. 1588 01:20:10.000 --> 01:20:12.640 For the record, I don't dislike the guy. I don't 1589 01:20:12.640 --> 01:20:14.840 dislike the things that he votes on. But as far 1590 01:20:14.920 --> 01:20:17.319 as being a Republican goes, Massey is a bit of 1591 01:20:17.359 --> 01:20:20.159 a monolith in a lot of regards. There's some positives 1592 01:20:20.199 --> 01:20:23.079 to that. Let's just be clear. He says, I would 1593 01:20:23.279 --> 01:20:26.039 vote I would vote for an increase in pay for soldiers, 1594 01:20:26.039 --> 01:20:28.199 but they put that in there to try to get 1595 01:20:28.239 --> 01:20:29.880 you to vote for all the other stuff. 1596 01:20:30.039 --> 01:20:31.640 There's still a lot of waste in the bill. 1597 01:20:31.840 --> 01:20:34.680 Massey, who also voted against the bill's final passage, told 1598 01:20:34.720 --> 01:20:35.439 The Hill he. 1599 01:20:35.439 --> 01:20:37.640 Also criticized the aid to Ukraine and the bill. 1600 01:20:38.279 --> 01:20:40.319 I could believe this. I thought we were getting out 1601 01:20:40.359 --> 01:20:42.359 of Ukraine. I don't know why we still need to 1602 01:20:42.359 --> 01:20:45.760 spend money there, he said. There were some grumblings about 1603 01:20:45.800 --> 01:20:49.479 provisions that were left out in the final DAA. Several 1604 01:20:49.479 --> 01:20:52.640 hardline conservatives had raised concerns that the bill doesn't include 1605 01:20:52.640 --> 01:20:55.199 a provision to prevent the creation of a central bank 1606 01:20:55.279 --> 01:20:59.840 digital currency, which could reshape electronic payments around the Federal Reserve. 1607 01:21:00.279 --> 01:21:02.680 They've argued that such a currency could be used to 1608 01:21:02.840 --> 01:21:10.880 survey or surveyal the Americans, which, yeah, obviously representative Keith self, 1609 01:21:11.199 --> 01:21:14.479 that's a Republican from Texas, who vote against the final passage, 1610 01:21:14.479 --> 01:21:17.640 wrote on x that leaving out procede protections for the 1611 01:21:17.680 --> 01:21:21.560 final privacy of Americans is unacceptable. We must demand better 1612 01:21:21.600 --> 01:21:25.159 and fight for the next must pass bill to ensure 1613 01:21:25.199 --> 01:21:29.159 a CBDC never sees the light of day. Financial freedom 1614 01:21:29.199 --> 01:21:32.960 isn't negotiable, he wrote, I agree with that I agree 1615 01:21:32.960 --> 01:21:33.760 with the statement on that. 1616 01:21:34.640 --> 01:21:36.439 Fiscal hawks were also not. 1617 01:21:36.439 --> 01:21:38.640 Happy that the bill had a top line of about 1618 01:21:38.680 --> 01:21:41.920 eight billion, more than the eight ninety two point six 1619 01:21:41.960 --> 01:21:46.479 billion that President Trump requested in May. Appointing contention among Democrats, meanwhile, 1620 01:21:46.880 --> 01:21:49.920 was the removal of a provision to expand IVF coverage 1621 01:21:49.960 --> 01:21:54.920 for active duty service members and military families. Representative Sarah Jacobs, 1622 01:21:54.960 --> 01:21:58.479 a Democrat from California, had passed an IVF amendment through 1623 01:21:58.479 --> 01:22:00.800 the House Armed Service Committee back in July to be 1624 01:22:00.840 --> 01:22:04.359 included in the NDAA. However, Johnson had worked behind the 1625 01:22:04.359 --> 01:22:07.640 scenes to kill the provision. Is a direct quote, Speaker 1626 01:22:07.760 --> 01:22:10.399 Johnson just stole the opportunity for service members to build 1627 01:22:10.439 --> 01:22:14.800 their families through IVF, putting his personal beliefs over their dreams. 1628 01:22:15.079 --> 01:22:19.079 It's an unbearable it's unbelievably selfish and callous move against 1629 01:22:19.119 --> 01:22:21.840 the people who've served and sacrificed so much for us, 1630 01:22:22.119 --> 01:22:24.600 especially when he and his own staff have access to 1631 01:22:24.640 --> 01:22:28.800 healthcare plans that provide IVF coverage. Jacobs, who ultimately voted 1632 01:22:28.800 --> 01:22:32.840 against the bill's final passage, wrote in a December seventh statement, However, 1633 01:22:32.880 --> 01:22:36.000 the NDAA still had enough bipartisan support to pass the 1634 01:22:36.039 --> 01:22:39.159 lower chamber. While I have concerns about how Speaker and 1635 01:22:39.319 --> 01:22:42.520 White House handled the final negotiations of the bill, the 1636 01:22:42.560 --> 01:22:46.600 majority of this legislation reflects months of bipartisan negotiations done 1637 01:22:46.640 --> 01:22:49.520 in good faith between the House and Senate Armed Service Committee. 1638 01:22:49.560 --> 01:22:53.920 That was Representative Adam Smith, Democrat from Washington and ranking 1639 01:22:53.960 --> 01:22:56.199 member of the House Armed Service Committee said in a 1640 01:22:56.239 --> 01:23:00.399 December eighth statement, So, anyway, long story short, the bill past, 1641 01:23:00.560 --> 01:23:04.159 and now we have a nine hundred billion annual defense 1642 01:23:04.239 --> 01:23:07.479 bill that just got passed through all the chambers and 1643 01:23:07.520 --> 01:23:11.279 it's going to go to Trump next go ahead, nation boycott. 1644 01:23:11.640 --> 01:23:14.560 So the fact that this NDAA is in the news 1645 01:23:14.640 --> 01:23:18.399 like this again, it's given me flashbacks to Obama's twenty 1646 01:23:18.439 --> 01:23:24.079 twelve NDAA HM essentially like authorized indefinite detention the name 1647 01:23:24.119 --> 01:23:27.640 of anti terrorism against American citizens where they could technically 1648 01:23:27.640 --> 01:23:31.880 pull up in black black VANU and then also indefinite 1649 01:23:31.920 --> 01:23:35.399 worldwide wars. Yeah, I've basically led us to the situation 1650 01:23:35.600 --> 01:23:36.880 we are in today. 1651 01:23:37.520 --> 01:23:37.960 Yeah. 1652 01:23:38.079 --> 01:23:39.000 Now, I've said this before. 1653 01:23:39.039 --> 01:23:41.960 When you have that level of bipartisan support, there is 1654 01:23:42.640 --> 01:23:47.119 clearly some chicanery afoot. That's that's right off the rip 1655 01:23:47.319 --> 01:23:48.880 you know, and we're not going to see what the 1656 01:23:48.960 --> 01:23:50.720 remnants of that's going to look like for the next 1657 01:23:51.199 --> 01:23:53.680 five ten maybe, I don't know, maybe next year we'll 1658 01:23:53.720 --> 01:23:55.560 see what else was in this bill that we just 1659 01:23:55.560 --> 01:23:59.960 got screwed on. I don't know, but uh yeah, no, 1660 01:24:00.079 --> 01:24:02.000 nothing like this gets pass to this level with out 1661 01:24:02.000 --> 01:24:05.399 there being some sort of some fuck real foot you know. 1662 01:24:06.319 --> 01:24:11.359 Anyway, Oh you had something else, Oh you did like this. 1663 01:24:11.399 --> 01:24:13.079 I didn't know if that was towards me or not. Anyway, 1664 01:24:13.119 --> 01:24:16.359 all right, dope, moving on, We're still gonna stick to America. 1665 01:24:16.439 --> 01:24:17.279 Just for a little minute. 1666 01:24:17.279 --> 01:24:21.079 Here, Florida declares the US Muslim Civil Rights group a 1667 01:24:21.119 --> 01:24:24.319 foreign terrorist organization, and so is Texas. By the way, 1668 01:24:24.720 --> 01:24:31.319 Ron de Santis legally legally dubious order designating care kai Ar. 1669 01:24:31.840 --> 01:24:35.000 I don't know how this pronounced car A Muslim brother 1670 01:24:36.039 --> 01:24:39.840 It's care. It's pronounced care Yeah, okay, c ai R 1671 01:24:40.000 --> 01:24:43.680 just ranged by who's curious? And Muslim Brotherhood follows a 1672 01:24:43.800 --> 01:24:47.439 similar move by Texas. Florida is declaring the Council on 1673 01:24:47.520 --> 01:24:51.000 American Islamic Relations, a US civil rights and liberties group, 1674 01:24:51.279 --> 01:24:54.640 as a foreign terrorist organization. The Republican governor Ron de 1675 01:24:54.720 --> 01:24:57.880 Santis announced on Monday. The move closely follows a similar 1676 01:24:58.000 --> 01:25:01.640 order issued in November by Texas this governor Greg Abbot, 1677 01:25:01.840 --> 01:25:05.800 Desanta's's fellow Republican. Even though only the federal government can 1678 01:25:05.840 --> 01:25:09.920 designate terrorist organizations, Care and its supporters are among those 1679 01:25:09.920 --> 01:25:14.000 who have dismissed the orders from DeSantis and Abbot as islamophobia. 1680 01:25:14.079 --> 01:25:14.800 Well, I bet they did. 1681 01:25:15.279 --> 01:25:18.319 In a statement, the National and Florida Care chapters described 1682 01:25:18.359 --> 01:25:21.359 to Santa's's order as a stunt and accused him of 1683 01:25:21.399 --> 01:25:26.520 signing a defamatory and unconstitutional order baselessly smearing. 1684 01:25:26.079 --> 01:25:27.439 Them as a direct quote. 1685 01:25:27.640 --> 01:25:30.439 The group vowed to sue Florida as it has Texas, 1686 01:25:30.439 --> 01:25:33.960 where Abbot has directed law enforcement officials to investigate whether 1687 01:25:34.039 --> 01:25:37.039 a group in Dallas is operating courts under Shrea law. 1688 01:25:37.640 --> 01:25:40.560 So I heard about this a while back, and you 1689 01:25:40.640 --> 01:25:46.319 couple this with that community, I guess we could use 1690 01:25:46.359 --> 01:25:48.800 it as that that is trying to build itself up 1691 01:25:48.840 --> 01:25:53.000 in Texas to operate under Sharia law. And listen on 1692 01:25:53.079 --> 01:25:55.600 the onset. If you get a group of people that 1693 01:25:55.680 --> 01:25:57.920 all get down in very similar ways and they want 1694 01:25:57.920 --> 01:26:00.720 to live off the beaten path to do as they do, 1695 01:26:01.119 --> 01:26:02.720 I don't inherently have a problem with it as long 1696 01:26:02.760 --> 01:26:05.279 as like human rights aren't being violated, right like the Homish, 1697 01:26:05.279 --> 01:26:07.960 for instance. I got no problem with the Amish operating 1698 01:26:07.960 --> 01:26:11.560 in their own way, you know. But you also have 1699 01:26:11.800 --> 01:26:14.840 situations like old David Koresh where he had a community 1700 01:26:14.840 --> 01:26:16.439 that was living off the beaten path and there were 1701 01:26:16.439 --> 01:26:19.319 some serious atrocities that were going on behind closed doors. 1702 01:26:19.520 --> 01:26:23.640 So there's levels to this, right, And hear me out. 1703 01:26:23.840 --> 01:26:26.279 If a group of Muslims that live in America and 1704 01:26:26.319 --> 01:26:29.760 are American citizens want to live in their own community 1705 01:26:30.159 --> 01:26:33.000 of Muslims just to be with people that are like them, 1706 01:26:33.439 --> 01:26:37.039 I don't inherently have a problem with this. However, if 1707 01:26:37.039 --> 01:26:39.439 they're going to try to implement their own version of 1708 01:26:39.479 --> 01:26:43.039 law and order under a version of Sharia law where 1709 01:26:43.239 --> 01:26:46.640 human rights atrocities will be committed on us soil, I 1710 01:26:46.720 --> 01:26:48.279 now have a problem with that then. 1711 01:26:48.479 --> 01:26:50.159 And I'm not saying that that is what they were 1712 01:26:50.159 --> 01:26:50.800 trying to do. 1713 01:26:51.560 --> 01:26:55.079 Depends on which source you're reading, is what you're talking 1714 01:26:55.079 --> 01:26:57.680 about as far as the Texas community is concerned. That 1715 01:26:57.800 --> 01:27:00.960 being said, Greg Abbott claimed that this group, not the 1716 01:27:01.279 --> 01:27:04.239 community I was talking about, but the care group, which 1717 01:27:04.279 --> 01:27:08.439 is the You know, the American Islamic Relations Group is 1718 01:27:08.479 --> 01:27:09.319 a terrorist group. 1719 01:27:09.720 --> 01:27:12.920 Okay, Now DeSantis has followed suit. I don't know. 1720 01:27:13.279 --> 01:27:15.199 I don't know if there was a group in Dallas 1721 01:27:15.199 --> 01:27:17.960 that was operating courts under Sharia law. If there was, 1722 01:27:18.039 --> 01:27:20.159 then yeah, that absolutely needs to have a stop put 1723 01:27:20.199 --> 01:27:23.479 to it. Fair Enough, Governor DeSantis knows full well that 1724 01:27:23.600 --> 01:27:26.439 CARE Florida is an American civil rights organization that has 1725 01:27:26.479 --> 01:27:30.479 spent decades advancing free speech, religious freedom, and justice for all, 1726 01:27:30.800 --> 01:27:35.319 including the people of Palestine, the group said in a statement. Okay, yeah, 1727 01:27:35.359 --> 01:27:38.760 because the people in Florida. Yeah, sure enough, Desanta said. 1728 01:27:38.760 --> 01:27:41.199 The executive order naming Kerr, one of the nation's largest 1729 01:27:41.239 --> 01:27:46.399 Muslim advocacy groups, was effective immediately. His order also targets 1730 01:27:46.399 --> 01:27:49.720 the Muslim Brotherhood, a transitional Islamic group founded in nineteen 1731 01:27:49.800 --> 01:27:53.039 twenty eight. The Muslim Brotherhood is a known terrorist organization 1732 01:27:53.119 --> 01:27:55.439 though and I know by their own admission they're not, 1733 01:27:55.920 --> 01:27:58.880 but by the world's admission, they're seen as an international 1734 01:27:59.000 --> 01:28:02.319 terrorist organization. I don't know off the rip what the 1735 01:28:02.359 --> 01:28:05.479 connection is between the Muslim Brotherhood and CARE. Maybe there 1736 01:28:05.560 --> 01:28:08.119 is some, maybe there's not. I don't know, but fair enough, 1737 01:28:08.760 --> 01:28:11.720 Neither the Muslim Brotherhood nor Care are on the US 1738 01:28:11.800 --> 01:28:15.279 government's list of designated FTO groups. Wait a minute, when 1739 01:28:15.359 --> 01:28:20.680 was the Muslim Brotherhood taken off the list? I was 1740 01:28:21.159 --> 01:28:23.840 pretty confident the Muslim brother who was listed as a 1741 01:28:23.840 --> 01:28:25.880 foreign terrorist organization by the US government. 1742 01:28:26.000 --> 01:28:27.680 Please nation boycott help me out here. 1743 01:28:28.560 --> 01:28:32.479 Weren't they like the leading like the leading faction in Egypt. 1744 01:28:32.800 --> 01:28:35.479 Yeah, the Muslim Brotherhood was like running Egypt, and I 1745 01:28:35.520 --> 01:28:37.920 think we did that to like improve relations. 1746 01:28:38.600 --> 01:28:39.840 We took them off the list. 1747 01:28:40.079 --> 01:28:42.479 Ehipt's an ally of ours and it was straight up 1748 01:28:42.800 --> 01:28:46.159 being run by the mother Muslim Brotherhood and like a 1749 01:28:46.199 --> 01:28:48.119 couple of less than ten years ago. 1750 01:28:48.399 --> 01:28:48.800 That's right. 1751 01:28:49.079 --> 01:28:51.359 That was only for one year in twenty thirteen under 1752 01:28:51.399 --> 01:28:53.560 Mohamma or a while. 1753 01:28:53.359 --> 01:28:56.199 Ago, but we still had them listed, was it? I 1754 01:28:56.279 --> 01:28:58.479 think I read about that Biden took them off the list, 1755 01:28:58.479 --> 01:28:58.800 didn't he? 1756 01:28:59.439 --> 01:29:01.720 You know, I don't remember, and I remember they were 1757 01:29:01.840 --> 01:29:06.800 very big in Egypt and Jordan, and Jordan designated them 1758 01:29:06.800 --> 01:29:09.920 a terrorist organization just within the last year, which really 1759 01:29:09.960 --> 01:29:13.159 surprised the heck out of me. I will check on 1760 01:29:13.239 --> 01:29:15.720 the State Department's list. They got a list to like 1761 01:29:15.760 --> 01:29:17.199 one hundred of them. 1762 01:29:17.720 --> 01:29:20.479 Yeah, I know for sure they at one time were 1763 01:29:20.600 --> 01:29:23.239 on the list. So yeah, Tony, a little bit of 1764 01:29:23.239 --> 01:29:28.359 clarification and that would be greatly appreciated anyway. Continuing on, nonetheless, 1765 01:29:28.439 --> 01:29:32.119 Florida agencies are hereby directed to undertake all lawful measures 1766 01:29:32.159 --> 01:29:36.279 to prevent unlawful activities by these organizations, including denying privileges 1767 01:29:36.399 --> 01:29:40.760 or resources to anyone providing material support. Well, yeah, no shit. 1768 01:29:41.199 --> 01:29:44.359 The order said CARE was quote founded by persons connected 1769 01:29:44.399 --> 01:29:47.560 to the Muslim Brotherhood. Ah, there's a connection which it 1770 01:29:47.600 --> 01:29:50.880 connects to Hamas and the October seventh attack on Israel. 1771 01:29:51.000 --> 01:29:55.159 CARE denies ties to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. Okay, 1772 01:29:55.880 --> 01:29:58.319 I bet they would go ahead. Nation. 1773 01:29:59.239 --> 01:30:02.680 So apparently it's only certain factions of the Muslim Brotherhood 1774 01:30:02.720 --> 01:30:06.199 that they've designated, not the whole Muslim Brotherhood. It's only 1775 01:30:06.279 --> 01:30:10.960 certain factions, okay, So like offshoots gosh yeah, kind of 1776 01:30:11.000 --> 01:30:13.560 like how al Qaeda, you know, and then there's offshoots 1777 01:30:13.560 --> 01:30:14.600 and now everything's al Qaida. 1778 01:30:14.960 --> 01:30:17.720 Yeah, okay, fair enough, fair enough. 1779 01:30:17.720 --> 01:30:21.680 So they even still man America is all about passing 1780 01:30:21.720 --> 01:30:24.279 some blanket policies to say that you're not going to 1781 01:30:24.319 --> 01:30:26.279 pass it for the whole group, but some of their 1782 01:30:26.359 --> 01:30:30.119 offshoot branches, you will, that's that's tiptoe. 1783 01:30:30.840 --> 01:30:32.880 We like, we'll do business with with the terrorists. We 1784 01:30:32.920 --> 01:30:34.000 don't like we're gonna. 1785 01:30:33.840 --> 01:30:36.560 Kill oh for sure, absolutely, I mean hell, even al 1786 01:30:36.640 --> 01:30:38.520 Qaeda that was started by us. But I mean that's 1787 01:30:38.960 --> 01:30:40.600 we've talked about that in the cult A good bit. 1788 01:30:40.840 --> 01:30:45.600 Osam Bin Laden aka tim Osman was absolutely self started 1789 01:30:45.640 --> 01:30:48.600 and funded and trained by our assets back when he 1790 01:30:48.640 --> 01:30:50.199 was still fighting with the mujah Dean. 1791 01:30:50.239 --> 01:30:53.720 If I'm not mistaken against the sovietly buried at sea. 1792 01:30:54.560 --> 01:30:58.159 Yeah, although I will say through some sources that I 1793 01:30:58.279 --> 01:31:04.039 have I saw the picture of him lit up with 1794 01:31:04.079 --> 01:31:06.079 the Navy seals. They straight up took trophy pictures with 1795 01:31:06.119 --> 01:31:09.960 the body that for sure was the bann in question. 1796 01:31:10.239 --> 01:31:11.600 I've heard a lot of people say, do we know 1797 01:31:11.640 --> 01:31:14.439 he's really dead? This and this. I get the question. 1798 01:31:14.640 --> 01:31:17.199 I absolutely get the conspiratorial take on it. I'm a 1799 01:31:17.199 --> 01:31:21.239 conspiracy theorist. I fully get he had tons. 1800 01:31:21.319 --> 01:31:23.840 Yeah, yeah, but I will say. 1801 01:31:23.640 --> 01:31:28.560 That even the whole operation to get him was fraught 1802 01:31:28.880 --> 01:31:31.279 with farces start to finish. 1803 01:31:31.039 --> 01:31:33.279 And crashed and left a Blackhawk. 1804 01:31:33.399 --> 01:31:36.239 Like that's mind blowing totally. 1805 01:31:36.520 --> 01:31:40.680 That's as bad as us losing a eight three China. 1806 01:31:40.760 --> 01:31:43.640 Dude. They they trained for this one mission. They knew 1807 01:31:43.680 --> 01:31:46.359 where he was staying for months, for months and months 1808 01:31:46.399 --> 01:31:49.199 and months, and they had the best specially trained pilots 1809 01:31:49.239 --> 01:31:51.199 that could get in there quick, fly, load, do all 1810 01:31:51.199 --> 01:31:54.279 these things, and everything was was planned out to a 1811 01:31:54.319 --> 01:31:57.560 t and it got fucked up so quickly on the 1812 01:31:57.720 --> 01:32:01.119 onset It's like, wait, what then you bury his body 1813 01:32:01.159 --> 01:32:03.960 at sea? That also, I don't understand it. The only 1814 01:32:04.039 --> 01:32:06.800 reason why I believe that he is in fact gone 1815 01:32:07.439 --> 01:32:10.079 is because of the source that I got it from 1816 01:32:10.279 --> 01:32:13.119 and me witnessing the pictures themselves. If I would have 1817 01:32:13.159 --> 01:32:15.640 never seen that and didn't trust that source, I would 1818 01:32:15.720 --> 01:32:17.600 not believe that he's dead, to be completely honest. So 1819 01:32:17.920 --> 01:32:20.600 I understand why people question it so heavily. And it's 1820 01:32:20.600 --> 01:32:22.279 not like I'm trying to die on that hill, like 1821 01:32:22.359 --> 01:32:25.920 I get it. I fully get it, okay, hodal good. 1822 01:32:26.000 --> 01:32:27.840 I just try to compare it to the other people 1823 01:32:27.920 --> 01:32:30.199 in the region, Like, look what happened to Saddam. He 1824 01:32:30.279 --> 01:32:32.880 was paraded out and hung in a square. Look what 1825 01:32:32.960 --> 01:32:36.199 happened to Gaddafi? He was fucking sodomized and that video 1826 01:32:36.319 --> 01:32:40.000 was put out. Osama was the even bigger criminal against 1827 01:32:40.119 --> 01:32:42.800 us than the rest of them, done quietly and buried, 1828 01:32:42.840 --> 01:32:43.560 and see like. 1829 01:32:43.560 --> 01:32:46.960 Come on, yeah, but I mean, keep in mind, it's 1830 01:32:46.960 --> 01:32:50.960 not like the people of Afghanistan hated bin Laden. They 1831 01:32:51.000 --> 01:32:53.359 hated him because of the amount of heat that he 1832 01:32:53.439 --> 01:32:56.199 brought onto the nation. They had twenty years of occupation 1833 01:32:56.279 --> 01:32:58.920 from a foreign nation. They're not fans of that. But 1834 01:32:58.960 --> 01:33:01.960 the people weren't in him against him, you know. I mean, 1835 01:33:02.119 --> 01:33:04.760 I guess depended on village to village. Some are more 1836 01:33:04.760 --> 01:33:07.279 loyal to the Taliban, some are more loyal to al Qaeda, 1837 01:33:07.359 --> 01:33:09.680 But it wasn't They didn't see him as an inherent 1838 01:33:09.760 --> 01:33:13.079 bad guy like that. So it's not like the public 1839 01:33:13.079 --> 01:33:16.600 would have gotten their justice on him. You know, he 1840 01:33:16.680 --> 01:33:19.000 wasn't like a nation leader. So but I do see 1841 01:33:19.000 --> 01:33:21.439 the point that you're making one hundred percent, Sam, what 1842 01:33:21.600 --> 01:33:22.239 you got done. 1843 01:33:23.680 --> 01:33:28.439 So the reason why that he was buried is so 1844 01:33:28.520 --> 01:33:34.319 that they would the the followers wouldn't have made his 1845 01:33:34.319 --> 01:33:39.520 his gravest memorial and more and martyr to them. 1846 01:33:39.680 --> 01:33:42.800 I think I announced that correctly, they wouldn't treat his 1847 01:33:43.000 --> 01:33:44.520 grave as a holy site. 1848 01:33:45.399 --> 01:33:51.840 And yeah, by now, where he was dropped. His body 1849 01:33:51.880 --> 01:33:54.319 within like a couple of weeks would have been crushed 1850 01:33:54.319 --> 01:33:57.520 and everything, and it would have that the wildlife would 1851 01:33:57.560 --> 01:34:04.880 have feasted upon him. But uh, Like, honestly, I don't 1852 01:34:04.920 --> 01:34:10.119 really understand why they didn't just torch the whole compound 1853 01:34:10.199 --> 01:34:11.960 with the body in it and be damned with it. 1854 01:34:12.039 --> 01:34:14.119 Why give it a bear outca I understand it so 1855 01:34:14.199 --> 01:34:17.720 that it wouldn't be a cultural like hotspot at all. 1856 01:34:17.760 --> 01:34:21.520 But at the same time, he was a terrorist, so 1857 01:34:21.760 --> 01:34:25.000 they don't they don't deserve to rest in peace. 1858 01:34:25.520 --> 01:34:27.199 No, I agree, But there was also a lot of 1859 01:34:27.199 --> 01:34:30.680 civilians that were at the compound with them. I should 1860 01:34:30.680 --> 01:34:32.840 I should say there were some armed guards they were 1861 01:34:32.880 --> 01:34:36.039 dealt with. Of course, there was also a few of 1862 01:34:36.079 --> 01:34:37.840 his wives, if I'm not mistaken, I know at least 1863 01:34:37.920 --> 01:34:39.640 one of his wives was in the bedroom with him. 1864 01:34:39.640 --> 01:34:40.520 But I think two of the. 1865 01:34:40.479 --> 01:34:43.319 Other his sons got killed there too because they were picked. 1866 01:34:43.359 --> 01:34:44.760 But they were combatants, so. 1867 01:34:45.079 --> 01:34:49.399 Exactly exactly the enemy combatants got dealt with quickly, But 1868 01:34:49.479 --> 01:34:52.760 there were civilians that were there as well. I'd be 1869 01:34:52.840 --> 01:34:55.079 lying to you if I told you who owned the compound. 1870 01:34:55.119 --> 01:34:57.119 There was. There was reasons why they didn't just torch 1871 01:34:57.159 --> 01:35:00.520 the place, whatever the reason. And this is the thing, 1872 01:35:00.520 --> 01:35:02.640 I'm not a I'm not a military tactician, you know 1873 01:35:02.680 --> 01:35:04.720 what I mean. I've had buddies that have dealt with 1874 01:35:04.760 --> 01:35:08.119 so common been in so common different roles. I've never 1875 01:35:08.520 --> 01:35:11.279 like talked tactics with them to that level, So I 1876 01:35:11.520 --> 01:35:11.880 don't know. 1877 01:35:12.720 --> 01:35:14.520 Can I also ask one other thing. 1878 01:35:15.479 --> 01:35:20.960 Hypothetically, you and your man's all on a firefight. You 1879 01:35:21.000 --> 01:35:23.359 shoot the guy who just shot your buddy and just 1880 01:35:23.399 --> 01:35:25.960 tried to kill you. You shoot him, he has a 1881 01:35:26.000 --> 01:35:29.319 sucking chest, run, he drops his rifle. Why are we 1882 01:35:29.359 --> 01:35:32.840 supposed to give him life? Life for saving aid? Why 1883 01:35:32.840 --> 01:35:34.760 don't we just let him bleed out or put another 1884 01:35:34.800 --> 01:35:35.399 round in him? 1885 01:35:35.439 --> 01:35:37.560 Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. 1886 01:35:37.880 --> 01:35:42.239 That's not okay. What you said is almost true. We 1887 01:35:42.359 --> 01:35:44.279 have to give do I. 1888 01:35:44.239 --> 01:35:47.880 Know who's gonna prove anything. You can say you tried 1889 01:35:47.920 --> 01:35:48.720 to save his ass. 1890 01:35:48.960 --> 01:35:53.039 Truth, But we have to give the equal medical care 1891 01:35:53.159 --> 01:35:55.720 to what he could receive in his area. 1892 01:35:57.960 --> 01:36:00.000 Let's let's keep this into perspective here. 1893 01:36:00.119 --> 01:36:03.239 So if we were. 1894 01:36:02.880 --> 01:36:06.960 I mean, essentially, basically, if we were having a fight 1895 01:36:07.119 --> 01:36:10.520 in France and we had an enemy combatant that went down, 1896 01:36:11.119 --> 01:36:13.439 we have to give them the equal amount of medical 1897 01:36:13.439 --> 01:36:16.479 care that he could receive in that nation. So we 1898 01:36:16.560 --> 01:36:17.960 have to give them like first world care. 1899 01:36:18.760 --> 01:36:20.000 Afghanistan like. 1900 01:36:21.520 --> 01:36:24.199 A little more open to interpretation, you know what I'm like, 1901 01:36:24.239 --> 01:36:28.520 we could give him some opium hope for the best. 1902 01:36:28.359 --> 01:36:28.800 Kind of thing. 1903 01:36:28.840 --> 01:36:32.840 But well, per the Geneva Convention, we do have to, 1904 01:36:32.960 --> 01:36:41.359 you know, give adequate medical care to any person who 1905 01:36:41.640 --> 01:36:43.640 was a combatant and is now not. And I mean 1906 01:36:43.720 --> 01:36:45.840 for certain reasons that could be good. If you could 1907 01:36:45.840 --> 01:36:48.159 save this dude's life and you can get him into 1908 01:36:48.199 --> 01:36:50.760 some group that can interrogate him and we might get 1909 01:36:50.800 --> 01:36:52.840 some decent intel out of him. It might have been 1910 01:36:52.840 --> 01:36:55.000 worth a couple of gauzes in the morphine to keep 1911 01:36:55.039 --> 01:36:58.439 him going right, Okay, And I can understand that in 1912 01:36:58.520 --> 01:37:00.560 another sense, you know. 1913 01:37:02.119 --> 01:37:04.039 Who your money fuck him? 1914 01:37:04.560 --> 01:37:08.119 Agreed, Agreed. It's very very case by case, you know 1915 01:37:08.159 --> 01:37:08.560 what I mean. 1916 01:37:08.840 --> 01:37:11.199 I'm not gonna judge somebody for double tapping a guy 1917 01:37:11.239 --> 01:37:13.840 on the ground after they just got done with a firefight. 1918 01:37:14.479 --> 01:37:16.960 But I'm also not gonna judge the doc who took 1919 01:37:17.039 --> 01:37:21.039 the oath to save lives on the battlefield. And I mean, hell, 1920 01:37:21.079 --> 01:37:23.239 that's the shit that like some of the biggest awards 1921 01:37:23.239 --> 01:37:26.159 have been granted for these docs that did the most 1922 01:37:26.199 --> 01:37:29.199 gangster shit and saved their marines lives and then went 1923 01:37:29.239 --> 01:37:31.560 and saved enemy combatants' lives and then took them in 1924 01:37:31.560 --> 01:37:35.159 as prisoners. That's what I'm saying, Like, there are some 1925 01:37:35.239 --> 01:37:37.800 gangsters that have gone above and beyond. I am not 1926 01:37:37.880 --> 01:37:40.960 a medic I am not that gangster. I am a 1927 01:37:41.000 --> 01:37:44.199 different breed. So you know, it's very case by case, 1928 01:37:44.279 --> 01:37:46.159 is all I'm gonna say. And again, if he's got 1929 01:37:46.199 --> 01:37:48.760 a sucking chest wound, do you know what kind of 1930 01:37:48.800 --> 01:37:52.479 medical care they could receive in most of Afghanistan? 1931 01:37:56.640 --> 01:37:58.199 My hope in a fucking player. 1932 01:37:58.640 --> 01:38:01.880 Essentially essentially mean some tile and all, maybe a stretcher, 1933 01:38:02.199 --> 01:38:04.840 some water that's got human shit floating in it, like 1934 01:38:04.840 --> 01:38:07.720 that's the standard. So you give them the standard medical 1935 01:38:07.760 --> 01:38:12.880 care that's available. That's all, you know. But also, because 1936 01:38:12.880 --> 01:38:14.640 we got to try to win the hearts and minds 1937 01:38:14.680 --> 01:38:17.000 of these people, right, we don't want them to see 1938 01:38:17.079 --> 01:38:20.159 us as a occupational invading force. We want them to 1939 01:38:20.199 --> 01:38:22.600 see us as friends, and we're here to help build 1940 01:38:22.600 --> 01:38:26.960 their democracy and teach them about freedom and all these things. Yeah, 1941 01:38:27.000 --> 01:38:27.640 they don't. 1942 01:38:27.520 --> 01:38:29.880 Ideologically, they don't never see us as funds. 1943 01:38:30.199 --> 01:38:33.039 No, and then they don't want freedom, they don't want democracy. 1944 01:38:33.119 --> 01:38:35.399 That these concepts are completely lost on them. 1945 01:38:35.680 --> 01:38:37.760 But they want to be worn with an iron fist. 1946 01:38:38.640 --> 01:38:40.640 It's not that they want that, it's that that's the 1947 01:38:40.680 --> 01:38:41.920 only language they understand. 1948 01:38:42.600 --> 01:38:45.800 That's that for generations, not even like, oh, this one 1949 01:38:45.880 --> 01:38:48.359 person since they were a kid, that's all you've ever seen. No, no, no, 1950 01:38:48.600 --> 01:38:50.800 this is the only language that this kid's great great 1951 01:38:50.840 --> 01:38:53.960 great grandfather had ever seen all the way through to now. 1952 01:38:53.960 --> 01:38:56.279 It's literally a part of their culture. So it's not 1953 01:38:56.319 --> 01:38:59.079 something that you're gonna uh change in the course of 1954 01:38:59.119 --> 01:39:02.039 two decades. That's that's just not gonna happen. They held 1955 01:39:02.079 --> 01:39:06.479 their elections, that was that was laughable. But anyway, anyway, 1956 01:39:06.479 --> 01:39:08.159 all right, getting back to it over here with this 1957 01:39:08.199 --> 01:39:12.920 whole situation, the Order Care was founded by persons connected 1958 01:39:12.920 --> 01:39:15.600 to the Muslim Brotherhood. We talked about that Kars Florida 1959 01:39:15.680 --> 01:39:17.479 and National Chapters, said DeSantis. 1960 01:39:17.479 --> 01:39:19.720 Through his orders to prioritize. 1961 01:39:19.079 --> 01:39:22.359 Serving the Israeli government over serving the people of Florida, 1962 01:39:22.840 --> 01:39:26.079 and of diverting millions in Florida taxpayer dollars to the 1963 01:39:26.119 --> 01:39:29.399 Israeli government bonds. I don't know how much truth there 1964 01:39:29.439 --> 01:39:31.920 is to that, and I also have no idea if 1965 01:39:31.920 --> 01:39:33.680 that has anything to do with the price of tea 1966 01:39:33.680 --> 01:39:34.520 in China over here. 1967 01:39:34.720 --> 01:39:37.239 I don't know, but sure don't. 1968 01:39:37.319 --> 01:39:40.439 I don't think it's a secret that DeSantis is way 1969 01:39:40.479 --> 01:39:44.800 more loyal to Israeli allies than to the Muslim brotherhood. 1970 01:39:45.560 --> 01:39:47.840 I don't think that's like a crazy hot take, but like, 1971 01:39:47.880 --> 01:39:53.039 all right, cool DeSantis and Abbott, it added want quote 1972 01:39:53.039 --> 01:39:57.439 to smear and silence Americans, especially American Muslims, who criticized 1973 01:39:57.479 --> 01:40:01.319 the US support for Israel's war in God. Yeah, most 1974 01:40:01.359 --> 01:40:04.199 Americans at this particular time are over the situation in 1975 01:40:04.319 --> 01:40:06.239 Israel and Goza, which we're gonna talk about here in 1976 01:40:06.279 --> 01:40:09.039 a bit as well. But that's also I don't think 1977 01:40:09.119 --> 01:40:13.199 this is to silence Americans. This is to put certain 1978 01:40:13.199 --> 01:40:15.680 things into perspective from what I can tell here. In 1979 01:40:15.720 --> 01:40:18.239 a separate statement on x Desantas said that the members 1980 01:40:18.239 --> 01:40:21.960 of Florida's legislature are crafting legislation to stop the creep 1981 01:40:22.000 --> 01:40:24.760 of Sharia law, and I hope that they codify these 1982 01:40:24.800 --> 01:40:28.000 protections for Floridians against care and the Muslim Brotherhood in 1983 01:40:28.079 --> 01:40:28.840 their legislation. 1984 01:40:29.399 --> 01:40:30.880 Okay, I'm gonna be honest. 1985 01:40:30.920 --> 01:40:33.439 I did not know that care And or the Muslim 1986 01:40:33.439 --> 01:40:36.439 Brotherhood had any kind of real foothold in Florida or Texas. 1987 01:40:36.479 --> 01:40:40.399 But I'll say this, Abbot in DeSantis, I feel like 1988 01:40:40.439 --> 01:40:44.560 they stopped giving a fuck somewhere in the nineties. Yeah. Now, 1989 01:40:44.720 --> 01:40:47.000 love them, hate them, feel neutral about them. 1990 01:40:47.039 --> 01:40:47.439 Whatever. 1991 01:40:48.199 --> 01:40:50.800 These dudes, they're just kind of doing what they feel 1992 01:40:50.880 --> 01:40:55.199 is right. And they're they're like almost openly asking for 1993 01:40:55.239 --> 01:40:58.399 people to challenge them so they can just bitch slap 1994 01:40:58.439 --> 01:41:00.920 them in some way, shape or form, which in a 1995 01:41:00.920 --> 01:41:05.239 certain regard him here for you know, I can't lie anyway. 1996 01:41:05.920 --> 01:41:08.119 So as we were talking about Venezuela earlier, I thought 1997 01:41:08.119 --> 01:41:11.119 it'd be interesting to talk about this. So the daughter 1998 01:41:11.600 --> 01:41:16.239 of Venezuelan opposition accepts the Nobel Peace Prize. So here's 1999 01:41:16.319 --> 01:41:19.680 the overarching situation here. We talked about Maduro. He's ruling 2000 01:41:19.760 --> 01:41:23.399 Venezuela with somewhat of an iron fists, big socialist government. 2001 01:41:23.680 --> 01:41:25.800 They went from having the one of the world's best 2002 01:41:25.800 --> 01:41:28.960 economies to being one of the world's worst economies in 2003 01:41:28.960 --> 01:41:32.800 the matter of realistically like five years and so right now, 2004 01:41:33.000 --> 01:41:36.880 Maduro is the leader. The opposition is led by a 2005 01:41:36.880 --> 01:41:40.760 woman who just was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, and 2006 01:41:40.880 --> 01:41:43.119 no one in Venezuela is talking about it. There's no 2007 01:41:43.239 --> 01:41:45.840 reports being done on it, there's no press being talked 2008 01:41:45.840 --> 01:41:48.920 about on this. This is one of only two Venezuelans 2009 01:41:48.960 --> 01:41:52.319 in human history to ever be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, 2010 01:41:52.720 --> 01:41:54.960 and they're not talking about it because it is directly 2011 01:41:55.079 --> 01:41:59.399 against Maduro. Let's watch this quick clip together, good members 2012 01:41:59.399 --> 01:42:03.439 of the retinue. This price carries profound meaning. 2013 01:42:04.439 --> 01:42:10.359 It reminds the world that democracy is essential to peace. 2014 01:42:10.760 --> 01:42:14.319 Maria Corina Machado is only the second Venezuelan in history 2015 01:42:14.399 --> 01:42:17.359 to win a Nobel Prize, and yet the local government 2016 01:42:17.600 --> 01:42:21.319 is sparing no effort in trying to silence her achievement. 2017 01:42:21.800 --> 01:42:24.520 On Wednesday, for example, the government called for a march 2018 01:42:25.000 --> 01:42:28.960 that including members of the Bolivarian Militia, which is a 2019 01:42:29.000 --> 01:42:33.319 civilian body that helps the Venezuelan military. No television channel 2020 01:42:33.439 --> 01:42:37.359 or radio station inside Venezuela was allowed to carry updates 2021 01:42:37.640 --> 01:42:40.960 or the speech where her daughter accepted the Nobel Prize 2022 01:42:41.119 --> 01:42:43.479 on her bealf, and some of the people that we 2023 01:42:43.520 --> 01:42:46.159 spoke with here told us that they didn't even know 2024 01:42:46.439 --> 01:42:49.920 why she had won. This should come as no surprise 2025 01:42:50.000 --> 01:42:53.760 because the Venezuelan media scene is heavily censored. Over the 2026 01:42:53.840 --> 01:42:58.319 last few queers, the government of authoritarian President Nicolas Gouduro 2027 01:42:58.399 --> 01:43:02.960 has put dozens of journalist in prison, and several media 2028 01:43:03.039 --> 01:43:07.479 are regularly sanctioned for broadcasting messages not aligned. 2029 01:43:07.319 --> 01:43:09.119 With the government propaganda. 2030 01:43:09.279 --> 01:43:10.840 And yeah, it's many Venezuelans. 2031 01:43:10.880 --> 01:43:14.159 We're able to follow the ceremony and to celebrate it, 2032 01:43:14.520 --> 01:43:18.520 especially sharing their pride on social media. We're using VIPN 2033 01:43:18.840 --> 01:43:22.600 to access media that is blocked here, but it's. 2034 01:43:22.479 --> 01:43:27.239 Free to take on the internet. Okay, So, like we 2035 01:43:27.239 --> 01:43:30.399 were talking about earlier, Maduro has censored every bit of 2036 01:43:30.439 --> 01:43:34.720 his country. And then you got the Bulevar militia, which 2037 01:43:36.199 --> 01:43:37.600 I don't know how many of you have looked into 2038 01:43:37.600 --> 01:43:40.680 the training of this civilian sector. It is not like 2039 01:43:40.760 --> 01:43:44.359 a national guard by any means. These people are getting 2040 01:43:44.399 --> 01:43:47.319 two weeks of a crash course of how to use a. 2041 01:43:47.279 --> 01:43:49.319 Weapon, and then they're given a uniform and. 2042 01:43:49.279 --> 01:43:51.560 If some sort of a land based attack was supposed 2043 01:43:51.600 --> 01:43:53.720 to happen, they are expected to take up arms and 2044 01:43:53.800 --> 01:43:59.439 get after it that if again, I'm not asking for 2045 01:43:59.560 --> 01:44:02.680 America to get involved in a land based attack in Venezuela. 2046 01:44:03.039 --> 01:44:04.960 What I am gonna say is that if that was 2047 01:44:05.000 --> 01:44:07.039 to take place, this would be what we call a 2048 01:44:07.079 --> 01:44:10.520 target rich environment, and uh, there would be a very 2049 01:44:11.079 --> 01:44:16.640 extremely proportional I'm using the American military terms as far 2050 01:44:16.640 --> 01:44:19.840 as that goes, a very proportional response. Uh, it would 2051 01:44:19.880 --> 01:44:25.039 not be pretty. It would be an absolute fucking massacre. Uh. 2052 01:44:25.079 --> 01:44:27.800 But yeah, these people, that's them, Sam, your hand was 2053 01:44:27.880 --> 01:44:31.640 up first. Go ahead, brother, and you gonna go back. 2054 01:44:31.520 --> 01:44:35.479 To that picture of my not at the the the. 2055 01:44:36.800 --> 01:44:41.279 Michael Quick Uh right, yeah, well there. 2056 01:44:41.479 --> 01:44:44.000 Why does he do like the South American Joseph Stalin 2057 01:44:44.079 --> 01:44:49.439 to me, he wishes he was, you see where I'm 2058 01:44:49.439 --> 01:44:49.880 coming from. 2059 01:44:50.960 --> 01:44:51.920 Oh, I absolutely do. 2060 01:44:52.279 --> 01:44:54.479 And I mean when you look at the Marxist ideologies 2061 01:44:54.479 --> 01:44:57.079 that he's put on his country, it's he wishes he was. 2062 01:44:58.079 --> 01:45:00.359 I will say that Stalin was a far are more 2063 01:45:00.399 --> 01:45:02.319 effective leader than Maduro. 2064 01:45:04.079 --> 01:45:08.159 Stalin also let his son die in a Nazi prison 2065 01:45:08.239 --> 01:45:11.880 camp because he said, what what is one one soldier's 2066 01:45:11.880 --> 01:45:12.920 wife over the other. 2067 01:45:13.199 --> 01:45:15.439 Oh No, he was a true blue believer in Marxism, 2068 01:45:15.800 --> 01:45:19.000 like one hundred. But there's also a reason why when 2069 01:45:19.000 --> 01:45:21.760 he was on his deathbed, the Russian people sat there 2070 01:45:21.800 --> 01:45:26.479 and watched him die slowly for days. 2071 01:45:24.880 --> 01:45:30.479 They did they not give him, like, I don't know, 2072 01:45:30.680 --> 01:45:33.319 cocaine or whatever to knock that ship out so he 2073 01:45:33.359 --> 01:45:34.479 can just die quicker. 2074 01:45:34.760 --> 01:45:38.319 I don't believe that Russia allowed drug use in their country. 2075 01:45:38.399 --> 01:45:40.279 And again, he was a true believer in the law 2076 01:45:40.359 --> 01:45:44.399 and other rules. He was a man of his principles. 2077 01:45:45.560 --> 01:45:45.800 Yeah. 2078 01:45:45.840 --> 01:45:49.560 Well, Hitley also didn't like the drug use, but boys 2079 01:45:49.560 --> 01:45:51.279 show loved his amphetamines. 2080 01:45:51.960 --> 01:45:56.039 Yeah, that's that's one of those weird uh uno reversos. Right, 2081 01:45:56.199 --> 01:45:59.600 Like fascists in that context hated drug use. They thought 2082 01:45:59.640 --> 01:46:01.880 it was a scourges of humanity, but they were all 2083 01:46:01.920 --> 01:46:03.800 about their meth chocolate to Blitzkreek. 2084 01:46:04.399 --> 01:46:08.119 But to be fair, that was his doctor was one 2085 01:46:08.159 --> 01:46:10.119 who was intentionally doping him up. 2086 01:46:10.640 --> 01:46:12.640 Oh for sure, sure he was. 2087 01:46:15.239 --> 01:46:19.359 If I'm not mistaken. His doctor is also Jewish, if 2088 01:46:19.359 --> 01:46:20.880 I'm not mistaken. 2089 01:46:20.640 --> 01:46:22.760 His childhood doctor was Jewish. 2090 01:46:22.880 --> 01:46:26.319 His adult Yeah that he actually gave him the title 2091 01:46:26.439 --> 01:46:28.720 of I'm trying to remember that. 2092 01:46:28.920 --> 01:46:30.520 It wasn't like uberminsh it was. 2093 01:46:30.560 --> 01:46:33.399 It was some sort of a title to basically say 2094 01:46:33.399 --> 01:46:35.800 that this guy, although he is a Jew, he's actually 2095 01:46:35.840 --> 01:46:39.439 one of the good ones. He's able. He saved his 2096 01:46:39.479 --> 01:46:42.640 mother from cancer. But that still didn't stop Hitler from 2097 01:46:42.880 --> 01:46:46.720 immediately going to Austria, to his hometown, embombing the absolute 2098 01:46:47.000 --> 01:46:49.640 fuck out of it to destroy all records of his 2099 01:46:49.720 --> 01:46:51.359 parentage because. 2100 01:46:51.079 --> 01:46:54.279 Because his maternal side was Jewish. 2101 01:46:54.439 --> 01:46:57.840 Yes, and per the Jewish law, if you come out 2102 01:46:57.880 --> 01:47:01.359 of a Jewish vagina, you are Jewish. So his his 2103 01:47:01.439 --> 01:47:04.279 mom's side was Jewish and that that was a whole thing. So, 2104 01:47:04.399 --> 01:47:06.600 you know, can't have all those records. 2105 01:47:06.960 --> 01:47:11.680 Is that why he like at allegedly that he committed 2106 01:47:11.760 --> 01:47:14.600 suicide adict because he in the bottom of the bunning 2107 01:47:14.600 --> 01:47:16.640 because he was just like, fuck it, the Holocaust is 2108 01:47:16.680 --> 01:47:17.920 just one long ass suicide. 2109 01:47:17.920 --> 01:47:20.199 I want to kill everybody that looks slight me. That's 2110 01:47:20.279 --> 01:47:20.960 my hot take. 2111 01:47:21.039 --> 01:47:24.319 Anyway, I know that's not a popular opinion, but if 2112 01:47:24.359 --> 01:47:27.039 you look at what he was going for, this pure race, 2113 01:47:27.119 --> 01:47:31.560 blonde hair, blue eyes, so tall, so built, all these things, German, 2114 01:47:32.239 --> 01:47:35.439 non jew all this he was Jewish, he was Austrian. 2115 01:47:35.600 --> 01:47:37.560 He did not have blonde hair, blue eyes. He had 2116 01:47:37.600 --> 01:47:40.000 a very shitty build. He was a failed art student. 2117 01:47:40.079 --> 01:47:41.359 It seems to. 2118 01:47:41.279 --> 01:47:45.960 Me architecture, the drawing and sketching. 2119 01:47:46.079 --> 01:47:50.159 Architect like, he could do straight lines really good, you're right. 2120 01:47:50.119 --> 01:47:53.039 About that, and landscaping. He just could not do faces. 2121 01:47:53.119 --> 01:47:54.479 He could not do portraits. 2122 01:47:54.720 --> 01:47:56.840 But my point is, though, if you look at everything 2123 01:47:56.840 --> 01:47:58.800 that he was trying to get rid of, and then 2124 01:47:58.880 --> 01:48:02.000 you look at everything he actually he was. He hated homosexuality, 2125 01:48:02.319 --> 01:48:07.600 surrounded himself the homosexuals. There, there's tons of these things 2126 01:48:07.640 --> 01:48:10.479 to where it's like just my own personal hot take. 2127 01:48:10.640 --> 01:48:14.159 It seems to me that the entirety of the Holocaust 2128 01:48:14.279 --> 01:48:17.159 was one big, long suicide letter. Although I do not 2129 01:48:17.159 --> 01:48:19.479 believe that he committed suicide in that bunker, just so 2130 01:48:19.520 --> 01:48:22.560 we're clear, I believe he made it to Argentina or 2131 01:48:22.640 --> 01:48:24.600 Venezuela or somewhere in South America. 2132 01:48:24.680 --> 01:48:27.439 So there's a picture of both him and Ava Bond's 2133 01:48:27.479 --> 01:48:29.119 body right before it got torched. 2134 01:48:29.720 --> 01:48:33.319 So the skull in the Russian Museum is. 2135 01:48:33.319 --> 01:48:37.439 Actual, and they thought it was, but it's not. 2136 01:48:38.279 --> 01:48:41.960 No, But the body, the body in the picture that 2137 01:48:42.159 --> 01:48:45.279 is allegedly him. If you do the skit like from 2138 01:48:45.319 --> 01:48:48.640 the picture to scale, that body is three to four 2139 01:48:48.680 --> 01:48:50.600 inches to a shoulder. 2140 01:48:50.520 --> 01:48:53.960 And is something about it. 2141 01:48:54.000 --> 01:48:56.079 Though they also said that one of his body, like 2142 01:48:56.359 --> 01:48:59.640 his most uh, like one of his body doubles like 2143 01:48:59.720 --> 01:49:02.520 that is there with him at the bunker. Even the 2144 01:49:02.600 --> 01:49:06.640 eye color wasn't even the same and everything. So I 2145 01:49:06.800 --> 01:49:10.920 person believe the fuckerho died in Argentina in the middle 2146 01:49:10.920 --> 01:49:14.399 of the fucking jungle because they found a They found 2147 01:49:14.439 --> 01:49:16.600 a hut in the middle of the jungle that the 2148 01:49:16.800 --> 01:49:20.560 entire inside it is a big ass uh it's the 2149 01:49:20.640 --> 01:49:26.199 eagle with the swastika in it, which actually uh, I 2150 01:49:26.239 --> 01:49:28.199 actually had a coin of it one time that was 2151 01:49:28.239 --> 01:49:30.239 given me by a lieutenant Connel and everything. 2152 01:49:31.039 --> 01:49:34.560 So if you look, there is fifty colonies in South 2153 01:49:34.600 --> 01:49:37.800 America that are Nazi colonies, like they still fall in 2154 01:49:37.880 --> 01:49:41.960 the flag, and there's some in Brazil, there's some in Argentina, in. 2155 01:49:41.960 --> 01:49:47.680 Chile, yes, but there's a Confederate colony down in Brazil. 2156 01:49:47.399 --> 01:49:50.359 There's one. There is one Confederate colony in Brazil, that 2157 01:49:50.439 --> 01:49:52.479 is the truth, That is a true statement. But there 2158 01:49:52.479 --> 01:49:55.359 are over there's over fifty Nazi colonies though. 2159 01:49:56.199 --> 01:49:56.720 Is it bad? 2160 01:49:56.760 --> 01:50:00.039 But I'm kind of more fascinated with the Confederate you 2161 01:50:00.079 --> 01:50:02.680 know what colony like, I care more about that one 2162 01:50:02.720 --> 01:50:04.439 wanting to learn about it than I do about the 2163 01:50:04.520 --> 01:50:05.159 Nazi ones. 2164 01:50:05.680 --> 01:50:08.520 It's a pretty interesting story. You ever seen the movie 2165 01:50:08.560 --> 01:50:12.359 Sahara No, with Matthew McConaughey and they're looking for the 2166 01:50:12.399 --> 01:50:15.039 lost iron side boat with all this Confederate gold on 2167 01:50:15.079 --> 01:50:15.199 it and. 2168 01:50:15.239 --> 01:50:15.840 Shit like that. 2169 01:50:18.159 --> 01:50:19.680 No, but that sounds interesting. 2170 01:50:19.880 --> 01:50:21.840 It's a very interesting movie, and it's one of those 2171 01:50:21.840 --> 01:50:25.359 where there's historical references, but it's very up to creative 2172 01:50:25.359 --> 01:50:28.119 liberties and things. I am personally the belief that that 2173 01:50:28.159 --> 01:50:30.279 boat didn't make it to Africa. I am of the 2174 01:50:30.279 --> 01:50:32.600 belief that it made it to Brazil to fund the 2175 01:50:32.640 --> 01:50:33.640 Confederate Colony. 2176 01:50:34.199 --> 01:50:37.560 Just my hot talk, that's more than likely what happened. 2177 01:50:37.800 --> 01:50:41.359 But I also think that it's funny because like gold 2178 01:50:41.399 --> 01:50:44.520 tends to go missing down in South America, Like you 2179 01:50:44.640 --> 01:50:47.000 have the uh what what was it? 2180 01:50:47.159 --> 01:50:47.399 Uh? 2181 01:50:47.640 --> 01:50:53.079 Eldlado Uh the City of Lost Gold mm hmm or 2182 01:50:53.159 --> 01:50:54.800 the Lost City of Gold Eldorado. 2183 01:50:55.079 --> 01:50:56.840 Yeah, I think that's yeah. 2184 01:50:57.039 --> 01:51:04.319 Then do you also have a mount mount uh pachu Peach? 2185 01:51:04.319 --> 01:51:05.800 You Mount Peach Yount? 2186 01:51:06.239 --> 01:51:09.960 I think yeah, they just found it and they're still 2187 01:51:10.000 --> 01:51:13.399 excavating it and everything, like I think there might be 2188 01:51:13.439 --> 01:51:14.840 some hitting gold in that thing. 2189 01:51:15.359 --> 01:51:17.319 It's very possible. It's very possible. 2190 01:51:17.319 --> 01:51:20.119 But yeah, it's I know that I have weird hot 2191 01:51:20.159 --> 01:51:22.600 takes and that makes me a conspiracy theorist, but it 2192 01:51:22.760 --> 01:51:23.439 is what it is. 2193 01:51:23.800 --> 01:51:25.520 Anyway, I have weird hot takes too. 2194 01:51:25.920 --> 01:51:30.039 I mean, I think that the Nazis created a space 2195 01:51:30.560 --> 01:51:35.000 not a spacecraft, but a a time warping machine in 2196 01:51:35.039 --> 01:51:37.000 the forties and it got launched. 2197 01:51:38.600 --> 01:51:41.159 We are going to do an episode on the Glackie soon, Sam, 2198 01:51:41.199 --> 01:51:43.319 I promise you, I promise you. Anyway, all right, we 2199 01:51:43.319 --> 01:51:45.039 gotta get some more people nation boycott. 2200 01:51:45.119 --> 01:51:46.319 Your hand's been raised, brotherly, go. 2201 01:51:46.279 --> 01:51:47.840 For it, I want to say. 2202 01:51:48.039 --> 01:51:51.640 Nicholas Madero also looks like the South American Saddam Hussein 2203 01:51:52.760 --> 01:51:56.279 a bit right, So I would say, also, what does 2204 01:51:56.319 --> 01:51:58.439 America have against dudes with mustaches? 2205 01:51:58.640 --> 01:52:02.359 Like it's it's a thing conspiracy. 2206 01:52:02.760 --> 01:52:06.720 That's a conspiracy itself, Brookie. In places of power, we 2207 01:52:06.800 --> 01:52:07.880 got to stop that ship. 2208 01:52:08.359 --> 01:52:09.800 Yeah. 2209 01:52:09.840 --> 01:52:15.640 And then on the Bullivar Militia about like earlier, I 2210 01:52:15.640 --> 01:52:19.159 guess they actually do some training alongside the military like 2211 01:52:19.199 --> 01:52:22.439 at regular times. Sure, and they're supposedly like four point 2212 01:52:22.479 --> 01:52:24.239 five million of them. 2213 01:52:23.960 --> 01:52:26.600 Yeah, so it's rough. 2214 01:52:27.079 --> 01:52:30.079 It's pretty much anybody who is capable of carrying a 2215 01:52:30.119 --> 01:52:33.840 weapon that can pass the very basics of not even 2216 01:52:33.840 --> 01:52:37.439 like run two miles like it's the qualifications for it 2217 01:52:37.520 --> 01:52:41.119 are not good. And again, these are not like highly 2218 01:52:41.159 --> 01:52:46.760 trained militiamen. They are they're not even weakened warriors. But 2219 01:52:46.960 --> 01:52:49.720 it's it would be a bloodbath. And I'm not saying 2220 01:52:49.720 --> 01:52:51.960 that like we would fuck them up. No, no, no, 2221 01:52:52.159 --> 01:52:56.279 I'm saying that with a lot of a lot of pity, uh, 2222 01:52:56.520 --> 01:52:58.239 that that would not be a pretty situation. 2223 01:52:58.920 --> 01:53:01.760 Yeah, you can say the same about America's going honors. 2224 01:53:01.800 --> 01:53:03.359 A lot of people have guns but don't train. 2225 01:53:03.960 --> 01:53:06.640 It's very true, it's very true. But I mean that's 2226 01:53:06.680 --> 01:53:07.279 the other thing too. 2227 01:53:07.319 --> 01:53:09.640 If we if we're talking about the amount of guns 2228 01:53:09.640 --> 01:53:12.800 per capita in America, I don't know what that looks like. 2229 01:53:12.840 --> 01:53:15.279 It's much bigger than four point five million, I'll tell 2230 01:53:15.279 --> 01:53:15.720 you that. 2231 01:53:15.960 --> 01:53:17.680 Very much so. And I mean even if it is 2232 01:53:17.680 --> 01:53:20.479 people that are just taking pop shots and ducking off, yo, 2233 01:53:20.720 --> 01:53:23.960 that's that's hundreds of millions of pop shots going off, 2234 01:53:24.000 --> 01:53:27.560 you know what I mean. But anyway, it rough. 2235 01:53:27.920 --> 01:53:30.680 So sticking onto the Venezuelan conversation. 2236 01:53:30.920 --> 01:53:33.640 Yes, as was brought up earlier, the US has seized 2237 01:53:33.680 --> 01:53:37.239 a Venezuelan oil tanker. This only happened a few hours ago, 2238 01:53:37.279 --> 01:53:39.119 as far as I can tell. Let's learn about this 2239 01:53:39.159 --> 01:53:39.920 one together too. 2240 01:53:40.399 --> 01:53:40.640 Three. 2241 01:53:40.720 --> 01:53:42.920 Now, this is breaking news. 2242 01:53:44.439 --> 01:53:47.039 Good afternoon, everybody, and welcome to Live at four. We 2243 01:53:47.199 --> 01:53:51.439 begin with breaking news. The United States has seized an 2244 01:53:51.479 --> 01:53:55.000 oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela amid a month 2245 01:53:55.159 --> 01:53:57.439 long buildup of military forces. 2246 01:53:57.680 --> 01:54:00.920 President Trump has confirmed this to reporters this afternoon. The 2247 01:54:01.000 --> 01:54:04.560 vessel was under sanctions. According to Bloomberg, This comes as 2248 01:54:04.600 --> 01:54:07.880 the US military builds up forces around the South American 2249 01:54:07.920 --> 01:54:11.680 country in a bid to remove Venezuela President Nicholas Maduro. 2250 01:54:11.960 --> 01:54:14.560 We will bring you to the updates as we get them. 2251 01:54:15.000 --> 01:54:17.760 So again, why are we going to Venezuela. I doubt 2252 01:54:17.760 --> 01:54:21.199 it's for the drugs. I doubt it. I think it's 2253 01:54:21.239 --> 01:54:23.960 a resource grab and to put a person in power 2254 01:54:23.960 --> 01:54:26.920 that's a little more easy to make a. 2255 01:54:26.880 --> 01:54:28.000 Deal happen with America. 2256 01:54:28.039 --> 01:54:31.760 There was a whole thing, was it last year where 2257 01:54:31.840 --> 01:54:35.560 Venezuela was talking about invading Guyana just to the south 2258 01:54:35.600 --> 01:54:37.640 of them, and America was talking about how they throw 2259 01:54:37.720 --> 01:54:38.520 in with Guyana. 2260 01:54:38.560 --> 01:54:39.800 First of all, who the fuck? 2261 01:54:39.960 --> 01:54:42.119 Most people don't even know where Guyana is on a map, 2262 01:54:42.680 --> 01:54:44.079 real shit, they don't, Okay. 2263 01:54:44.079 --> 01:54:44.520 First off? 2264 01:54:44.560 --> 01:54:49.159 Second off, Guyana has some resources that America could you know, get. 2265 01:54:49.199 --> 01:54:51.720 As far as that's concerned, it didn't matter. They were 2266 01:54:51.760 --> 01:54:55.000 going to use that as justification to go in and 2267 01:54:55.039 --> 01:54:55.920 take out Maduro. 2268 01:54:56.319 --> 01:54:57.359 That was all it ever was. 2269 01:54:57.760 --> 01:55:01.199 So now since Venezuela backed off of the whole invasion 2270 01:55:01.199 --> 01:55:03.520 of guy on a bit, now they're looking for another 2271 01:55:03.520 --> 01:55:06.479 reason to justify it. And well, hey, there's some cartels 2272 01:55:06.479 --> 01:55:09.039 that are moving some drugs, and now those are terrorist groups. 2273 01:55:09.039 --> 01:55:13.239 And now we have the president Maduro who was clearly 2274 01:55:13.319 --> 01:55:17.880 funding and arming known terrorist groups per the new definition. 2275 01:55:17.399 --> 01:55:17.920 Of this word. 2276 01:55:18.039 --> 01:55:21.239 So hey, that's justification enough. You know, hell, that was 2277 01:55:21.319 --> 01:55:24.359 justification to us for us to go into Afghanistan. I mean, hey, 2278 01:55:25.159 --> 01:55:31.920 Nation Boycott, I saw your hand was raised. What's up, man? Yeah, 2279 01:55:32.000 --> 01:55:32.560 your hand raised. 2280 01:55:32.720 --> 01:55:34.960 I was just gonna say about how that that Guyana stuff. 2281 01:55:35.159 --> 01:55:38.039 He didn't fully like invade them, but he did like 2282 01:55:38.159 --> 01:55:40.920 take over like this oil rich region down there and 2283 01:55:41.520 --> 01:55:44.000 built of his military forces. It was like a disputed area, 2284 01:55:44.159 --> 01:55:46.319 and like he was just like not it's mine, it's 2285 01:55:46.319 --> 01:55:49.600 not disputed anymore. But actually, like Columbia was like, what 2286 01:55:49.720 --> 01:55:51.680 the fuck, dude, when that happens? 2287 01:55:52.159 --> 01:55:54.520 Right, So, I don't know. 2288 01:55:54.800 --> 01:55:56.880 I'm thinking that at this moment, we're looking at any 2289 01:55:56.920 --> 01:56:00.520 reason to get involved in Venezuela. And I said this 2290 01:56:00.560 --> 01:56:03.319 a few years ago, it wouldn't shock me if we 2291 01:56:03.520 --> 01:56:06.680 got into another like our next armed conflict would be 2292 01:56:06.680 --> 01:56:09.159 of Venezuela. People thought it was crazy, people thought I 2293 01:56:09.239 --> 01:56:10.560 was crazy whenever I said that. 2294 01:56:11.439 --> 01:56:12.520 And now here we are. 2295 01:56:12.760 --> 01:56:14.199 And I'm not even saying that it's going to happen 2296 01:56:14.239 --> 01:56:17.239 during Trump's administration, although I think it probably will. 2297 01:56:18.039 --> 01:56:19.439 And I'm not saying to what level. 2298 01:56:19.600 --> 01:56:21.960 I don't know to what level this type of kinetic 2299 01:56:22.000 --> 01:56:24.079 warfare will get involved. What I am going to say 2300 01:56:24.119 --> 01:56:27.720 is that if Venezuela goes to war, BRICKS will try 2301 01:56:27.720 --> 01:56:29.960 to get involved in some way, shape or form, which 2302 01:56:30.000 --> 01:56:32.279 means that NATO in turn will try to get involved 2303 01:56:32.279 --> 01:56:34.279 in some way, shape or form. I don't think it 2304 01:56:34.279 --> 01:56:37.239 will spawn into a World War three. I'm saying that 2305 01:56:37.319 --> 01:56:41.119 it could potentially. That's pretty much all I'm comfortable saying 2306 01:56:41.119 --> 01:56:43.000 on that one as of this moment. Who knows. We 2307 01:56:43.039 --> 01:56:47.279 will see how things shake out. Continuing talking about oil, here, 2308 01:56:47.399 --> 01:56:53.840 Iraq invites US firms to seize Russian oil field prize. Yeah, buddy, 2309 01:56:53.880 --> 01:56:58.520 Apparently American economy is getting back involved with Iraq, and 2310 01:56:58.560 --> 01:57:01.279 there's reasons for this. Mostly has to do with the 2311 01:57:01.760 --> 01:57:05.279 the Russian oil sanctions. Let's talk about it. Iraq has 2312 01:57:05.279 --> 01:57:08.520 invited major US oil companies to develop the giant West 2313 01:57:08.680 --> 01:57:11.800 Kerna two field after Luke Oil's forced exit. 2314 01:57:12.079 --> 01:57:13.680 Luke Oil would be the Russian company. 2315 01:57:14.000 --> 01:57:17.159 Russia and China had built deep energy and political leverages 2316 01:57:17.239 --> 01:57:20.600 in Iraq using oil contracts, pipeline control, and ties to 2317 01:57:20.640 --> 01:57:22.000 our Ran backed groups. 2318 01:57:22.640 --> 01:57:24.479 Here it is, but Western. 2319 01:57:24.159 --> 01:57:27.560 Companies are now regaining ground through major new deals by 2320 01:57:27.640 --> 01:57:31.680 Total Energies, BP, Chevron, and Exxon Mobile. 2321 01:57:32.119 --> 01:57:33.760 So I know for sure that Exon Mobile. 2322 01:57:33.840 --> 01:57:36.319 I think they just struck a deal, but I was 2323 01:57:36.319 --> 01:57:38.199 trying to remember if it was Chevron or Shell. It 2324 01:57:38.199 --> 01:57:40.359 sounds like it was Chevron here that is next in 2325 01:57:40.439 --> 01:57:43.520 line to strike a deal on this extremely oil rich field. 2326 01:57:43.640 --> 01:57:45.560 Let's get in more. Here, it says West Kerna two 2327 01:57:45.640 --> 01:57:49.640 produces nearly ten percent of Iraq's output. An kasus can 2328 01:57:50.800 --> 01:57:54.880 sustain six hundred and thirty five thousand to six hundred 2329 01:57:54.880 --> 01:57:58.880 and fifty thousand barrels per day, and US firms are 2330 01:57:58.920 --> 01:58:02.760 now positioned to take over development. Now I understand there's 2331 01:58:02.760 --> 01:58:05.439 other oil fields out there that can produce more than that. YO, 2332 01:58:05.880 --> 01:58:08.640 six hundred and fifty thousand barrels per day out of 2333 01:58:08.680 --> 01:58:09.279 one field. 2334 01:58:09.960 --> 01:58:14.000 That is not chump change. That's Boss moves in so 2335 01:58:14.159 --> 01:58:14.760 many ways. 2336 01:58:14.800 --> 01:58:18.800 And now Exxon Mobile and Chevron and BP are about 2337 01:58:18.800 --> 01:58:22.159 to be the main diggers drillers, I should say, as 2338 01:58:22.159 --> 01:58:22.520 far as it. 2339 01:58:22.560 --> 01:58:25.560 Is concerned, Yeah, that's a move right there. 2340 01:58:25.880 --> 01:58:28.279 Iraqs Oil Ministry has revealed that it has sent out 2341 01:58:28.359 --> 01:58:32.239 exclusive invitations to several major US energy firms to develop 2342 01:58:32.359 --> 01:58:35.359 the country's huge West Kerna two oil field, following the 2343 01:58:35.399 --> 01:58:39.920 withdrawal of Russian oil number too Luke Oil after Washington 2344 01:58:40.119 --> 01:58:43.600 ratcheted up sanctions on Moscow. Direct quote here, it's a 2345 01:58:43.680 --> 01:58:47.560 huge turnaround in the trajectory Iraq had been headed with 2346 01:58:47.680 --> 01:58:51.079 Russia and China, marking a massive win for the US 2347 01:58:51.119 --> 01:58:54.000 and Europe. That's a senior legal source who works closely 2348 01:58:54.039 --> 01:58:57.479 with the US Treasury Department told OilPrice dot Com last week. 2349 01:58:57.520 --> 01:59:00.560 And that's that's what this is is source here. Magnificance 2350 01:59:00.640 --> 01:59:04.079 of this sea change in Iraq's geopolitical leanings can barely 2351 01:59:04.119 --> 01:59:08.520 be overstated. Following the increasing perception among the Iraqi people 2352 01:59:08.600 --> 01:59:11.520 that the US had overstated its welcome after it removed 2353 01:59:11.560 --> 01:59:13.880 Saddam Hussein as its leader in two thousand and three, 2354 01:59:14.279 --> 01:59:17.960 Russia and China, in that order, of course, looked to 2355 01:59:18.039 --> 01:59:21.640 boost their influence across the country for three key reasons. First, 2356 01:59:21.920 --> 01:59:24.920 it offers a huge repository of oil at the world's 2357 01:59:25.000 --> 01:59:28.319 joint lowest average lifting costs of two to four dollars 2358 01:59:28.399 --> 01:59:32.119 per barrel, together with large quantities of associated and non 2359 01:59:32.159 --> 01:59:36.880 associated gas. Second, it occupies the geographical heart of the region, 2360 01:59:37.279 --> 01:59:40.920 lying west of Iran, north of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, 2361 01:59:41.279 --> 01:59:45.000 east of Jordan and Syria, and with its long Mediterranean coastline, 2362 01:59:45.079 --> 01:59:48.920 offering access to further critical sea routes, and of course 2363 01:59:49.039 --> 01:59:53.279 south of Turkey, affording an entry into the European continent. 2364 01:59:54.039 --> 01:59:56.840 And Third, it is a key member. 2365 01:59:56.640 --> 02:00:00.600 Of the Shia Crescent of power geopolitical art that stretches 2366 02:00:00.640 --> 02:00:04.840 from Iran through Iraq, Syria and Lebanon, where Shia communities 2367 02:00:04.840 --> 02:00:09.680 and Iran back groups exert significant influence over the regional politics, economics, 2368 02:00:09.680 --> 02:00:12.760 and security. In short, if you are a global superpower 2369 02:00:12.880 --> 02:00:16.560 or wanna be, Iraq is where you need to be. Which, 2370 02:00:17.159 --> 02:00:21.680 to circle back, is why we got involved in Iraq. 2371 02:00:21.720 --> 02:00:25.199 We didn't care about Saddam. He's using weapons of mass destruction. 2372 02:00:26.000 --> 02:00:28.640 The Serenas bombs that he used to bomb the shit 2373 02:00:28.680 --> 02:00:31.560 out of the Kurds to the north were manufactured by 2374 02:00:31.600 --> 02:00:35.920 American scientists in labs in Ukraine. We sold him those 2375 02:00:35.960 --> 02:00:39.920 weapons of mass destruction. If anybody didn't know about that, 2376 02:00:39.640 --> 02:00:41.960 That's exactly how that took place, which is why whenever 2377 02:00:42.000 --> 02:00:45.079 he bombed the fuck out of those Kurds, American politics 2378 02:00:45.079 --> 02:00:47.079 had to turn a blind eye to it because it's like, well, 2379 02:00:47.119 --> 02:00:51.760 where did Sadam develop Serenas? Oh? I I don't know, bro, 2380 02:00:51.840 --> 02:00:52.439 it's crazy. 2381 02:00:52.960 --> 02:00:54.600 Wow, No, it was because we did that. 2382 02:00:55.000 --> 02:00:58.079 And to be honest with you, we don't care about 2383 02:00:58.079 --> 02:00:58.920 the Kurds either. 2384 02:00:59.319 --> 02:01:02.199 I do. I like the Kurdish people. I wish Kurdistan 2385 02:01:02.239 --> 02:01:02.960 would become a thing. 2386 02:01:03.119 --> 02:01:06.520 It's not gonna but Saddam truly hated them and used 2387 02:01:06.560 --> 02:01:08.560 them as a scapegoat for some shit that took place 2388 02:01:08.560 --> 02:01:10.399 in this country. That's a long story we're not really 2389 02:01:10.439 --> 02:01:13.159 gonna get into. But my point is we got involved 2390 02:01:13.199 --> 02:01:18.399 with Iraq to protect our foreign interests in oil. And 2391 02:01:18.439 --> 02:01:20.600 this is what we would call the long game, right. 2392 02:01:20.640 --> 02:01:22.479 It wasn't something that we're gonna say a quick turnaround on. 2393 02:01:22.479 --> 02:01:24.520 We took him out in two thousand and three. I 2394 02:01:24.520 --> 02:01:26.600 think if you look at it by the math here, 2395 02:01:27.319 --> 02:01:31.319 we completely took over the country in a matter of months, 2396 02:01:31.640 --> 02:01:34.399 like it wasn't And honestly, the only reason why it 2397 02:01:34.439 --> 02:01:37.000 wasn't weeks like it was during Desert Storm and Desert Shield. 2398 02:01:37.439 --> 02:01:39.960 Wasn't it like three weeks or something like that, And 2399 02:01:40.000 --> 02:01:43.560 we had complete control, air superiority and ground superiority of 2400 02:01:43.600 --> 02:01:47.000 the country of Iraq, and then we left. It took 2401 02:01:47.119 --> 02:01:51.640 us months this time because we let politics get in 2402 02:01:51.640 --> 02:01:53.720 the way of a couple of things. The ros were 2403 02:01:53.720 --> 02:01:56.039 a little different, and that's fine whatever. We took over 2404 02:01:56.039 --> 02:01:58.159 the country. He was deposed Cool COO cool, He was 2405 02:01:58.199 --> 02:02:01.439 publicly hanged. The people were super Then we tried to 2406 02:02:01.439 --> 02:02:04.279 set up shop. Then Dick Cheney tried to get involved 2407 02:02:04.319 --> 02:02:09.600 with Halliburton and Kate kbr and that was a whole 2408 02:02:09.640 --> 02:02:11.479 other thing. We just did an episode about that on 2409 02:02:11.560 --> 02:02:15.079 the cult of conspiracy. With the passing of the late 2410 02:02:15.399 --> 02:02:18.479 some would say great, some would not say great, Dick Cheney, 2411 02:02:18.760 --> 02:02:21.359 but neither here nor there. We got involved in Iraq 2412 02:02:21.439 --> 02:02:24.520 because of what was just said. If you are a 2413 02:02:24.560 --> 02:02:29.359 global superpower, which America is the only global superpower left 2414 02:02:29.720 --> 02:02:30.479 or want. 2415 02:02:30.239 --> 02:02:32.119 To be, Iraq is where you need to be. 2416 02:02:32.600 --> 02:02:34.920 So whenever we left Russia and China, which China has 2417 02:02:34.920 --> 02:02:36.800 been trying to become a global superpower for the last 2418 02:02:36.840 --> 02:02:39.840 few decades. Since they can't do it in a military sense, 2419 02:02:39.880 --> 02:02:43.640 because we can getting to that talk another day, they 2420 02:02:43.840 --> 02:02:46.199 are trying to do it from the economic side of things, 2421 02:02:46.479 --> 02:02:49.199 and that's why they have had very strategic business interests 2422 02:02:49.239 --> 02:02:52.319 that have gone around the world. When in twenty sixteen 2423 02:02:52.359 --> 02:02:54.680 when the oil field market dropped out, I had a 2424 02:02:54.720 --> 02:02:57.600 buddy of mine that was working in Africa, Africa in 2425 02:02:58.640 --> 02:02:59.039 he was. 2426 02:02:59.000 --> 02:03:02.000 The one that did the. 2427 02:03:00.800 --> 02:03:03.279 The Congo River crossing, And if anybody doesn't know what 2428 02:03:03.319 --> 02:03:07.079 that is, Chevron basically did this crazy pipe drill that 2429 02:03:07.159 --> 02:03:09.720 went underneath the Congo River. And it's not that it 2430 02:03:09.760 --> 02:03:12.319 was just a pipe under the river. The type of 2431 02:03:12.359 --> 02:03:15.600 engineering that was needed to make this directional pipeline go 2432 02:03:15.680 --> 02:03:19.319 down was mind blowing that they were able to figure 2433 02:03:19.359 --> 02:03:20.520 out how to do this and get it done in 2434 02:03:20.560 --> 02:03:23.199 the time that they did. Chevron did all these things. 2435 02:03:23.279 --> 02:03:26.479 When Chevron pulled out because the oil prices dropped down 2436 02:03:26.479 --> 02:03:28.920 and they could no longer afford to send Americans over there, 2437 02:03:29.600 --> 02:03:32.479 China swooped in and took over the fields. Anywhere where 2438 02:03:32.479 --> 02:03:36.039 American or any European power has had an oil field 2439 02:03:36.079 --> 02:03:38.560 somewhere that they couldn't afford to keep up, China moved 2440 02:03:38.600 --> 02:03:40.680 in and bought it for pennies on the dollar. And 2441 02:03:40.720 --> 02:03:42.560 that's just one industry. They had been doing this with 2442 02:03:42.680 --> 02:03:46.199 every industry of note for the last few decades. Cut 2443 02:03:46.239 --> 02:03:48.800 to they got involved in Iraq whenever we took off, 2444 02:03:49.159 --> 02:03:52.720 and now they're gone, and America's back on the menu. Boys, 2445 02:03:53.159 --> 02:03:56.039 the pace of Moscow and Beijing's involvement across the country 2446 02:03:56.079 --> 02:03:58.800 picked up more picked up the more it looked like 2447 02:03:58.880 --> 02:04:02.079 the US might withdraw from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of 2448 02:04:02.239 --> 02:04:08.640 Action the JCPOA, or the colloquially known the Nuclear Deal, 2449 02:04:09.079 --> 02:04:12.119 which it eventually did in May of twenty eighteen. Just 2450 02:04:12.159 --> 02:04:15.279 before then, Russia had stepped into the chaos caused by 2451 02:04:15.279 --> 02:04:20.039 Iraq's Kurdistans vote for independence in September twenty seventeen. Hey, 2452 02:04:20.079 --> 02:04:24.560 there's the Kurds making their entrance again to enable Rosenft 2453 02:04:24.840 --> 02:04:28.479 ross neft sure effectively to take control of the northern 2454 02:04:28.520 --> 02:04:31.720 region's oil sector through means analyzed in full in the 2455 02:04:31.800 --> 02:04:35.159 latest book by the New Global Oil Market Order. This 2456 02:04:35.279 --> 02:04:37.880 more broadly allowed Russia to create further chaos in the 2457 02:04:37.920 --> 02:04:42.039 political and financial dealings between the semi autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan 2458 02:04:42.159 --> 02:04:45.279 Group in the north and the Federal Government of Iraq 2459 02:04:45.319 --> 02:04:48.359 in the south. This in turn provided Moscow with an 2460 02:04:48.359 --> 02:04:51.079 opportunity to expand its presence in the south, and also 2461 02:04:51.199 --> 02:04:54.680 did the same for its ally China, because Beijing was 2462 02:04:54.720 --> 02:04:57.079 in various stages of a trade war with the US 2463 02:04:57.119 --> 02:04:59.560 at the time, which up until recently and you could 2464 02:04:59.560 --> 02:05:01.960 even argue you still is in a trade war. But anyway, 2465 02:05:03.520 --> 02:05:06.520 it had to tread carefully in a country in which 2466 02:05:06.560 --> 02:05:09.680 the US was still active, which it did by using 2467 02:05:09.760 --> 02:05:15.039 dozens of smaller quote unquote contract only awards on oil 2468 02:05:15.079 --> 02:05:18.880 and gas fields rather than headline grabbing exploration and development awards. 2469 02:05:19.319 --> 02:05:21.920 Once the US formally ended its combat mission in Iraq 2470 02:05:21.960 --> 02:05:24.800 in December of twenty twenty one. Then all brakes were off, 2471 02:05:24.880 --> 02:05:28.279 with China dramatically pushing its new field of acquisitions in 2472 02:05:28.319 --> 02:05:31.960 the south, while Russia consolidated its agitator position in the 2473 02:05:31.960 --> 02:05:36.119 north through Rosnef mainly and in the south including the 2474 02:05:36.159 --> 02:05:39.319 West Kurna two contract of its number two oil producer 2475 02:05:39.399 --> 02:05:43.119 Luke Oil. At the same time, continued US and Allied 2476 02:05:43.159 --> 02:05:46.039 military presence in Iraq became the focus of heightened pressure 2477 02:05:46.079 --> 02:05:50.119 from Iran backed militias, with direct and or indirect support 2478 02:05:50.119 --> 02:05:52.239 from Russia and China, because of course, if I RAN's 2479 02:05:52.279 --> 02:05:54.239 doing something, you know Russia and China are not too 2480 02:05:54.279 --> 02:05:59.239 far behind, including through rocket fire, drone strikes, and roadside bombs. 2481 02:05:59.439 --> 02:06:02.039 The US and other Western oil firms were under further 2482 02:06:02.079 --> 02:06:05.199 pressure on the ongoing exploration and development work due to 2483 02:06:05.239 --> 02:06:08.079 the legacy of endemic corruption running through Iraqs oil and 2484 02:06:08.119 --> 02:06:12.479 gas business, and several began downscale or withdrawal in Iraq, 2485 02:06:12.520 --> 02:06:16.560 including Exo Mobile, Chevron, VP, Shell, Total Energies, and E 2486 02:06:16.680 --> 02:06:20.720 and I. So long story short, these people moved in 2487 02:06:20.800 --> 02:06:24.600 Russian Ukraine or not Russian Ukraine. Russia and Chinese oil 2488 02:06:24.600 --> 02:06:29.000 conglomerates moved in when America completely pulled out. Now with 2489 02:06:29.159 --> 02:06:31.199 all of the sanctions that have been going on as 2490 02:06:31.199 --> 02:06:35.800 far as against Russia, the quote unquote trade war with 2491 02:06:35.920 --> 02:06:40.039 China is over, quote unquote. I don't actually agree with 2492 02:06:40.079 --> 02:06:42.840 that statement, but on paper and per what the media says, 2493 02:06:43.720 --> 02:06:46.359 you know, g and Trump have come to an agreement 2494 02:06:46.399 --> 02:06:49.199 and it seems like everything's all hunky dory again. Don't 2495 02:06:49.199 --> 02:06:52.079 think that's gonna stand for much longer, but it is 2496 02:06:52.119 --> 02:06:54.640 what it is. China is no longer seen as the 2497 02:06:54.720 --> 02:06:56.800 trade enemy that it once was. Given it another a 2498 02:06:56.800 --> 02:07:00.279 few months and they probably will be. Russia absolutely still is. 2499 02:07:00.880 --> 02:07:03.800 And the only thing that's been keeping Russia afloat as 2500 02:07:03.800 --> 02:07:07.600 far as their war goes has been that although they 2501 02:07:07.640 --> 02:07:12.359 couldn't get oil to be shipped from Russian vessels, they 2502 02:07:12.439 --> 02:07:14.880 just flew another flag and went through a third party, 2503 02:07:14.960 --> 02:07:17.000 one of these other countries, one of the stands that 2504 02:07:17.039 --> 02:07:19.960 have you know, port access or whatever, and they were 2505 02:07:19.960 --> 02:07:21.880 still able to sell their Russian oil, maybe a little 2506 02:07:21.960 --> 02:07:24.199 cheaper than what they wanted, but they were still able 2507 02:07:24.239 --> 02:07:25.640 to keep their economy afloat. 2508 02:07:25.960 --> 02:07:26.520 Cut too. 2509 02:07:27.359 --> 02:07:30.439 Now, India has agreed that they will no longer buy 2510 02:07:30.520 --> 02:07:34.199 Russian oil. China has allegedly agreed that they're going to 2511 02:07:34.279 --> 02:07:36.199 do the same. North Korea is always going to buy 2512 02:07:36.239 --> 02:07:37.640 the oil, but it's not like they're using it. They 2513 02:07:37.640 --> 02:07:40.399 don't have any real amenities. But neither here nor there. 2514 02:07:41.199 --> 02:07:45.199 Russia has pretty much gotten the final Finally, the financial 2515 02:07:45.199 --> 02:07:48.039 screws have been put to them, and it's more likely 2516 02:07:48.079 --> 02:07:50.800 that they'll come to the peace negotiations now than ever before. 2517 02:07:51.479 --> 02:07:53.720 But even still, we're gonna get to that conversation here 2518 02:07:53.720 --> 02:07:54.239 in a minute. 2519 02:07:54.359 --> 02:07:56.880 But anyway, I did want to bring this up here. 2520 02:07:57.319 --> 02:08:02.000 Now Iraq is inviting US firms to the formerly Russian 2521 02:08:02.159 --> 02:08:05.119 owned oil fields, so we'll see how that shakes out. 2522 02:08:05.119 --> 02:08:07.680 As far as the American oil prices are concerned. I'm 2523 02:08:07.760 --> 02:08:11.640 stoked on it. So getting next, let's as we are 2524 02:08:11.680 --> 02:08:13.680 talking about Iraq in the Middle East as a whole, 2525 02:08:14.119 --> 02:08:18.520 Israel Gaza live updates here. Allegedly, three hundred and seventy 2526 02:08:18.600 --> 02:08:21.680 nine people have been killed in Gaza since the ceasefire. 2527 02:08:22.399 --> 02:08:24.880 Health officials say we're not going to go too far 2528 02:08:24.960 --> 02:08:26.680 with it, but let's read a little bit here. This 2529 02:08:26.720 --> 02:08:28.920 is from ABC News, so at least you know the bias. 2530 02:08:29.279 --> 02:08:32.760 The ceasefire in Gaza is broadly holding with Israel forces 2531 02:08:32.800 --> 02:08:35.279 inside the strip, having pulled back to the so called 2532 02:08:35.439 --> 02:08:39.319 yellow line. Israel Defense Force chief a Yell Zamir said 2533 02:08:39.359 --> 02:08:43.960 the position continues a borderline with Gaza. Sporadic clashes between 2534 02:08:44.000 --> 02:08:47.199 the IDF and Gaza militants, plus deadly IDF air strikes 2535 02:08:47.439 --> 02:08:50.600 continue despite the ceasefire, which is still in the first 2536 02:08:50.640 --> 02:08:55.000 three proposed phases are the first of three proposed phases. Rather, 2537 02:08:55.319 --> 02:08:57.720 the details of the second phase of the agreement are 2538 02:08:57.800 --> 02:09:02.760 not yet to be agreed. Shocker. Israeli strikes are also 2539 02:09:02.840 --> 02:09:07.039 ongoing against alleged Hesbala targets in southern and eastern Lebanon. 2540 02:09:07.600 --> 02:09:10.800 The remains of one deceased hostage are still thought to 2541 02:09:10.880 --> 02:09:14.560 be in Gaza as well. So again, three hundred and 2542 02:09:14.560 --> 02:09:17.640 seventy nine people have been killed since since the ceasefire 2543 02:09:17.680 --> 02:09:21.119 in Gaza. The Hamas Run Ministry of Health in Gaza 2544 02:09:21.279 --> 02:09:23.640 said in a social media post on Wednesday that two 2545 02:09:23.640 --> 02:09:26.479 people were killed by Israeli fire in the previous twenty 2546 02:09:26.479 --> 02:09:28.680 four hours, with the body of one person who was 2547 02:09:28.760 --> 02:09:33.199 killed earlier also recovered. Now I don't know, especially since 2548 02:09:33.239 --> 02:09:35.479 it's the Hamas Run group, but I mean it is 2549 02:09:35.479 --> 02:09:36.720 what it is. You gotta take it with a grain 2550 02:09:36.760 --> 02:09:38.760 of salt, but I'm not saying that there's not still 2551 02:09:38.760 --> 02:09:41.399 people dying in Gaza because of the IDEF. The three 2552 02:09:41.439 --> 02:09:44.680 casualties brought the overall death toll since the ceasefire came 2553 02:09:44.760 --> 02:09:47.720 to effect on October eleventh to three hundred and seventy 2554 02:09:47.760 --> 02:09:50.239 nine people, the Ministry said, with nine hundred and twenty 2555 02:09:50.279 --> 02:09:52.800 two people also wounded. A total of six hundred and 2556 02:09:52.840 --> 02:09:55.199 twenty seven additional bodies have been recovered in that time. 2557 02:09:55.279 --> 02:09:58.079 The Ministry also said the death toll since the war 2558 02:09:58.119 --> 02:10:02.319 began on October seventh now stands at seventy thousand, three 2559 02:10:02.399 --> 02:10:05.159 hundred and sixty nine people, with another one hundred and 2560 02:10:05.199 --> 02:10:08.279 seventy one or over one hundred and seventy one thousand wounded. 2561 02:10:08.640 --> 02:10:11.359 Held Officials said they expect to find more victims as 2562 02:10:11.359 --> 02:10:15.039 recovery teams work through rubble in the devastated strip. Okay, 2563 02:10:15.079 --> 02:10:17.359 so there's our live update of what's going on with 2564 02:10:17.399 --> 02:10:19.920 the Israel Gaza situation. I have told you all that 2565 02:10:19.920 --> 02:10:21.600 we're going to stay up to date on what's happening 2566 02:10:21.600 --> 02:10:24.640 with it, and you know, promises made, promises kept, we 2567 02:10:24.680 --> 02:10:26.800 are still going to continue to do that on future 2568 02:10:26.840 --> 02:10:30.880 episodes of The Cajun Night. Now, as we were talking 2569 02:10:30.880 --> 02:10:33.520 about Israel and the whole situation about you know, and 2570 02:10:33.560 --> 02:10:35.960 we're talking about Iraq, we're talking about the Islamic. 2571 02:10:35.560 --> 02:10:38.319 World, I thought this was kind of a weird one here. 2572 02:10:38.399 --> 02:10:41.479 France and the UK are failing to tackle the anti 2573 02:10:41.560 --> 02:10:46.159 migrant activists. What anti migrant activists, you might be asking. 2574 02:10:46.800 --> 02:10:50.000 So migrant support groups in France say they lack action 2575 02:10:50.520 --> 02:10:56.359 over British activists is encouraging violence and xenophobic practices. Yeah. 2576 02:10:56.640 --> 02:10:57.560 Of course the. 2577 02:10:57.680 --> 02:11:00.560 UK and French authorities have been accused of encouraging violence 2578 02:11:00.600 --> 02:11:04.760 and the xenophobic practices by failing to tackle into anti 2579 02:11:04.800 --> 02:11:08.479 immigrant British activists who traveled to northern France in an 2580 02:11:08.520 --> 02:11:13.279 attempt to stop small boat crossings. So here's essentially what's 2581 02:11:13.279 --> 02:11:17.760 happening here. There's a group in Britain called the Raise 2582 02:11:17.840 --> 02:11:21.079 the Colors group which has organized the hanging of Saint 2583 02:11:21.159 --> 02:11:23.920 George and Union flags on lamp posts another street furniture 2584 02:11:24.000 --> 02:11:27.520 across the UK, and they have launched Operation Overlord, a 2585 02:11:27.560 --> 02:11:32.159 reference to the Normandy Normandy landings in the Second World War. Essentially, 2586 02:11:32.199 --> 02:11:35.720 this British group of dudes decided like, look, these people 2587 02:11:35.880 --> 02:11:40.119 keep coming to England on these little small boats and 2588 02:11:40.199 --> 02:11:42.279 vessels through the English Channel, and as soon as they 2589 02:11:42.279 --> 02:11:46.239 step on British soil, they're immediately given the red carpet treatment. 2590 02:11:46.279 --> 02:11:48.720 And if you look at who is making their way across, 2591 02:11:48.920 --> 02:11:53.039 it's not women and children. It is all military aged 2592 02:11:53.079 --> 02:11:57.079 males and the liberal politics. What have you believe? Well, 2593 02:11:57.079 --> 02:11:58.760 that's because they're coming here to set things up to 2594 02:11:58.760 --> 02:12:02.640 bring the women and children obviously, except there's that's not happening. 2595 02:12:02.920 --> 02:12:04.760 It's not happening. This is not something that's only been 2596 02:12:04.800 --> 02:12:06.880 taking place in the last few months. This has been 2597 02:12:06.880 --> 02:12:08.960 taking place over the last few years, and there is 2598 02:12:09.520 --> 02:12:11.920 minimal women and children that have ever been brought over 2599 02:12:12.000 --> 02:12:15.079 in such fashions. It's all military age males. These are 2600 02:12:15.079 --> 02:12:17.039 the same dudes that are called, you know, doing these 2601 02:12:17.119 --> 02:12:20.319 rape gains and throwing acid in women's faces and causing 2602 02:12:20.359 --> 02:12:23.359 an absolute just dystopian reality. 2603 02:12:22.960 --> 02:12:24.880 To become the day and age in Britain. 2604 02:12:24.920 --> 02:12:28.560 Right now, that being said, a group of British civilians decided, 2605 02:12:28.600 --> 02:12:30.840 you know, why don't we just stop it at its source. 2606 02:12:31.359 --> 02:12:33.960 They took a trip to France and they're sitting on 2607 02:12:34.000 --> 02:12:36.720 the beach waiting on a group of dudes to try 2608 02:12:36.720 --> 02:12:38.199 to put a boat in the water so they could 2609 02:12:38.239 --> 02:12:41.680 beat the absolute shit out of them. And I gotta 2610 02:12:41.720 --> 02:12:44.720 be honest with you, I'm not that mad at this, 2611 02:12:45.279 --> 02:12:47.319 first of all, because I'm an American and this has 2612 02:12:47.520 --> 02:12:51.520 absolutely no bearing in my day to day operations. But also, 2613 02:12:51.800 --> 02:12:55.399 you know, yeah, yeah, why don't you take it into 2614 02:12:55.399 --> 02:12:57.279 your own hands. If your government's not gonna do it, 2615 02:12:57.319 --> 02:12:59.239 and they're not gonna try to save your country, you 2616 02:12:59.319 --> 02:13:01.439 should try to say your country and stop it at 2617 02:13:01.439 --> 02:13:03.079 the source. I like it. 2618 02:13:03.880 --> 02:13:04.319 Let's see. 2619 02:13:04.319 --> 02:13:06.520 On Friday, members of the group were in France, targeting 2620 02:13:06.560 --> 02:13:09.760 migrants for harassment and searching for dinghies buried in sand 2621 02:13:09.840 --> 02:13:13.159 dunes to destroy. Some were detained by French police for 2622 02:13:13.239 --> 02:13:17.479 their actions. The French association Utopia fifty six, which works 2623 02:13:17.479 --> 02:13:20.239 on beaches in northern France where migrants tried to cross 2624 02:13:20.279 --> 02:13:23.960 the Channel, reported them to police. Yeah, Utopia fifty six 2625 02:13:24.199 --> 02:13:26.159 is apparently the group that's trying to help the terrorists 2626 02:13:26.159 --> 02:13:29.520 make their way to I mean the refugees to make 2627 02:13:29.520 --> 02:13:32.399 their way to England. They were detained for several hours 2628 02:13:32.399 --> 02:13:37.199 before being released. Well, no shit, A Utopia fifty sixsperson said, 2629 02:13:37.520 --> 02:13:39.680 we have been monitoring the social media accounts of these 2630 02:13:39.760 --> 02:13:42.560 various groups daily and reporting them to the public prosecutor 2631 02:13:42.680 --> 02:13:43.640 and prefecture. 2632 02:13:44.000 --> 02:13:46.079 However, even though we hear. 2633 02:13:45.960 --> 02:13:49.199 Our alerts are taken seriously, to date, nothing has been 2634 02:13:49.199 --> 02:13:51.479 done to prevent them from coming to the beaches along 2635 02:13:51.520 --> 02:13:55.039 the coast when the far right advances unchecked human rights 2636 02:13:55.119 --> 02:13:58.600 road Yeah, not exactly. According to Raise the Colors on 2637 02:13:58.640 --> 02:14:01.640 social media, fifty five one hundred people have offered to 2638 02:14:01.680 --> 02:14:05.119 go to France to intervene to stop the boats, something 2639 02:14:05.119 --> 02:14:07.520 it says the UK and French authorities are failing to do. 2640 02:14:08.439 --> 02:14:10.880 Bro you realize how pissed you gotta be to get 2641 02:14:11.239 --> 02:14:14.439 multiple thousands of dudes to get together and decide we're 2642 02:14:14.479 --> 02:14:17.439 gonna not go to work, We're gonna take our own 2643 02:14:17.479 --> 02:14:21.000 money and take a trip to France to commit violence 2644 02:14:21.079 --> 02:14:24.000 on these people because our government's not doing anything to 2645 02:14:24.039 --> 02:14:24.479 help us. 2646 02:14:25.439 --> 02:14:28.359 I don't even know what more there needs to be said. 2647 02:14:28.439 --> 02:14:31.439 Fifty five hundred people have offered to go to France 2648 02:14:31.439 --> 02:14:34.439 to intervene, and apparently some of them have in fact 2649 02:14:34.439 --> 02:14:38.079 done this. Raise the Colors has circulated appeals for stab 2650 02:14:38.159 --> 02:14:41.960 proof vests, plate carriers, high powered torches. I don't know 2651 02:14:41.960 --> 02:14:43.840 what the fuck a high powered torch is, but okay, 2652 02:14:44.199 --> 02:14:48.159 thermal cameras, drones and encrypted radios. It defines itself as 2653 02:14:48.199 --> 02:14:51.840 a true professional civilian border control force ready to take 2654 02:14:51.840 --> 02:14:54.560 control of the beaches. One man who said he was 2655 02:14:54.600 --> 02:14:58.079 ex army posted on a call to ex squatties to 2656 02:14:58.239 --> 02:15:00.800 go and patrol the French beaches to twenty four to seven. 2657 02:15:01.079 --> 02:15:03.880 The group is live stream footage of its activities on 2658 02:15:03.960 --> 02:15:07.640 the coast of northern France on social media. Wow, good 2659 02:15:07.640 --> 02:15:10.399 for them, Good for them. You know, we'll keep an 2660 02:15:10.479 --> 02:15:12.800 update on what's going on with the Raise the Colors group. 2661 02:15:12.840 --> 02:15:17.399 But I like it honestly, Sam, go ahead, just so. 2662 02:15:17.399 --> 02:15:20.800 You know that a high fire torch is British for 2663 02:15:21.399 --> 02:15:22.399 a white ass. 2664 02:15:22.439 --> 02:15:27.239 Light, got you, Yeah, they call flashlight torches there, that's right. Okay. 2665 02:15:27.920 --> 02:15:31.000 Yeah, we're not gonna say what they call their cigarettes either. 2666 02:15:31.039 --> 02:15:35.319 They are a weird bunch, those red red coats. 2667 02:15:35.479 --> 02:15:35.680 Yeah. 2668 02:15:35.720 --> 02:15:38.319 I don't know how that became the slang term for 2669 02:15:38.319 --> 02:15:40.720 a cigarette. They call it that in Ireland. Two, like 2670 02:15:40.800 --> 02:15:43.119 of all the things, like, I mean, I mean. 2671 02:15:43.039 --> 02:15:47.840 It makes sense they are British. 2672 02:15:46.479 --> 02:15:49.640 I mean yeah, but they're not inherently gay, you know, 2673 02:15:49.760 --> 02:15:50.439 not typically. 2674 02:15:51.399 --> 02:15:56.000 I mean they do have a king, I mean. 2675 02:15:55.920 --> 02:15:59.800 Currently, but he's also not long for this world honestly, 2676 02:15:59.840 --> 02:16:02.800 but either neither here or there. But yeah, I don't 2677 02:16:02.840 --> 02:16:04.680 know how that became the slang term. For a second. 2678 02:16:04.680 --> 02:16:07.319 Wait, isn't the new king Andrew or whatever? 2679 02:16:07.560 --> 02:16:09.960 Wasn't he the one that was fucking the kids on 2680 02:16:10.000 --> 02:16:10.880 Epstein's Island? 2681 02:16:11.239 --> 02:16:13.760 So he was a prince, but he wasn't next in 2682 02:16:13.800 --> 02:16:18.199 line for the throne. The I think it's Harry. I 2683 02:16:18.239 --> 02:16:21.159 forget which one married the girl from California and he 2684 02:16:21.279 --> 02:16:24.359 renounced his titles and all the things. I forget which 2685 02:16:24.359 --> 02:16:26.279 one it was, but yeah, no, the next in line 2686 02:16:26.319 --> 02:16:27.239 would be his. 2687 02:16:27.680 --> 02:16:31.439 Grandma stripped him over his child because he didn't marry 2688 02:16:31.479 --> 02:16:35.159 a blue blood. But yet he was I have more 2689 02:16:35.200 --> 02:16:37.399 respect for him because he had Like he was doing 2690 02:16:37.440 --> 02:16:39.799 an interview, he like he didn't have to be in 2691 02:16:39.840 --> 02:16:42.040 the military or do a comeback, but their base of 2692 02:16:42.159 --> 02:16:45.239 what was getting attacked, and you just see him snatch 2693 02:16:45.280 --> 02:16:46.879 off the mic and tear out running. 2694 02:16:47.239 --> 02:16:49.760 Yeah, well, respect respect where it's due to the guy. 2695 02:16:49.799 --> 02:16:51.639 But at the same time, that's also why he was 2696 02:16:51.719 --> 02:16:53.879 kicked out of his role because he was deemed as 2697 02:16:53.920 --> 02:16:56.959 too high value of a target and therefore was actually 2698 02:16:57.079 --> 02:17:00.159 lowering the defensive posture of his unit, which sucks, but 2699 02:17:00.719 --> 02:17:04.559 you know that's the role you were born into. But anyway, 2700 02:17:05.399 --> 02:17:06.559 nation boycott go ahead. 2701 02:17:09.239 --> 02:17:12.200 It was Prince Harry, and really they disowned him because 2702 02:17:12.559 --> 02:17:16.959 his uh Megan Markle, Yeah, it is next race. That's 2703 02:17:17.000 --> 02:17:19.479 why the royal family disowned him. 2704 02:17:19.479 --> 02:17:21.000 So whatever his brother's. 2705 02:17:20.680 --> 02:17:24.360 Name is, it's Prince Harry. And no she's so she's 2706 02:17:24.399 --> 02:17:24.920 half black. 2707 02:17:25.319 --> 02:17:27.440 Well no, no, no, I'm saying. So he's no longer next 2708 02:17:27.440 --> 02:17:29.200 in line for the throne. Whoever his brother is. I 2709 02:17:29.239 --> 02:17:31.440 got a picture of his face. I cannot remember what 2710 02:17:31.559 --> 02:17:34.840 his name is, but he is supposed to be next 2711 02:17:34.840 --> 02:17:36.600 in line whenever the current king dies. 2712 02:17:36.760 --> 02:17:38.719 Oh yeah, No, Prince Harry was the younger one one 2713 02:17:38.760 --> 02:17:40.319 that I got disowned. He was the younger one. 2714 02:17:40.479 --> 02:17:42.479 Yeah, he was never really in line, but he lost 2715 02:17:42.520 --> 02:17:43.920 like his duke titles in bull. 2716 02:17:43.760 --> 02:17:47.680 Craft, which is fine. He's he's still royalty, still getting 2717 02:17:47.680 --> 02:17:49.840 to check from the family. And if I'm not mistaken, 2718 02:17:49.879 --> 02:17:52.799 he's living in America now living his best life. I 2719 02:17:52.799 --> 02:17:55.200 don't know, it depends on what tabloid you read. 2720 02:17:55.319 --> 02:17:58.520 But and that's Prince William. But have you seen him 2721 02:17:58.600 --> 02:18:01.079 like he rides around his castle on a segue? 2722 02:18:01.559 --> 02:18:02.760 Have you seen pictures of that? 2723 02:18:03.079 --> 02:18:03.360 I have? 2724 02:18:04.680 --> 02:18:10.120 I mean, dude, I've never I'd have one of those. 2725 02:18:10.399 --> 02:18:12.120 I wouldn't do a segue. I'd probably have a hoverboard 2726 02:18:12.159 --> 02:18:12.600 or something. 2727 02:18:12.879 --> 02:18:16.079 I mean probably something, but even still a hoverboard that 2728 02:18:16.079 --> 02:18:18.159 would be a whole other. Look, you know what I mean. 2729 02:18:18.360 --> 02:18:20.719 But me, dude, I would actually just ride a ripstick around. 2730 02:18:21.520 --> 02:18:23.600 I would have a royal goldplated ripstick that I would 2731 02:18:23.639 --> 02:18:28.399 ride up and down the castle. And oh man, because 2732 02:18:28.399 --> 02:18:31.959 I oh dude, I would be out of breath so much. 2733 02:18:32.319 --> 02:18:35.000 But then also because of just the way I live 2734 02:18:35.079 --> 02:18:37.719 my life, I would be such a bad royal. Like 2735 02:18:37.799 --> 02:18:40.360 it's not even funny. I I hold a noble title, 2736 02:18:40.680 --> 02:18:42.440 and I'm not even that good of a night, to 2737 02:18:42.479 --> 02:18:44.360 be honest with you, as far as the combat and 2738 02:18:44.479 --> 02:18:47.280 of the nobility and all these things. But dude, to 2739 02:18:47.319 --> 02:18:50.399 be a royal and get treated like that, there's no way. 2740 02:18:50.639 --> 02:18:53.239 There's no way I could do that. Have like a 2741 02:18:53.559 --> 02:18:57.559 have a grown man brush my teeth for me. I'm sorry, 2742 02:18:57.920 --> 02:18:59.879 what are we talking about here? You know? 2743 02:19:00.079 --> 02:19:02.319 And they're so steeped in tradition that like, they have 2744 02:19:02.440 --> 02:19:05.719 so many rules and it's wild. I couldn't do it. 2745 02:19:05.760 --> 02:19:10.360 I agree. Yeah, So anyway, France and the UK, France 2746 02:19:10.360 --> 02:19:12.719 has already fallen, like that's not even a hot take. 2747 02:19:13.239 --> 02:19:15.920 UK is borderline falling. 2748 02:19:15.600 --> 02:19:18.360 As we speak. And the civilian population decided, you know what, 2749 02:19:18.600 --> 02:19:20.639 since y'all are gonna do anything, we're gonna do something. 2750 02:19:20.719 --> 02:19:22.719 So I hope that we get a very good update 2751 02:19:22.719 --> 02:19:27.440 from these people here soon. Now. I don't know how 2752 02:19:27.440 --> 02:19:31.000 many of you heard about this, but two Russian drunk 2753 02:19:31.040 --> 02:19:35.399 pilots were killed after a sue thirty four bombers ejection 2754 02:19:35.600 --> 02:19:39.280 seats went off inside the hangar, launching them into the 2755 02:19:39.360 --> 02:19:43.959 roof of the hangar, the concrete roof. Yeah, this is 2756 02:19:43.959 --> 02:19:46.440 a real thing that happened, and even Russian sources have 2757 02:19:46.479 --> 02:19:47.000 confirmed this. 2758 02:19:47.639 --> 02:19:49.799 And I don't know if they were drunk or not. 2759 02:19:50.120 --> 02:19:52.760 It would make sense to me personally they are Russian, 2760 02:19:53.120 --> 02:19:55.440 but let's talk about it here. Two Russian drunk pilots 2761 02:19:55.440 --> 02:19:58.120 have been killed after being ejected from their aircraft as 2762 02:19:58.159 --> 02:20:01.319 it sat inside a hangar, sending them hurtling into a 2763 02:20:01.360 --> 02:20:05.040 concrete roof. Russian media reported that the aircraft was stationary 2764 02:20:05.200 --> 02:20:10.120 and the system was quote unquote suddenly triggered. What suddenly 2765 02:20:10.120 --> 02:20:13.280 triggered it? You might ask? Is it because the the 2766 02:20:13.399 --> 02:20:16.319 sue was the Suit thirty seven or Suite thirty four? 2767 02:20:16.440 --> 02:20:18.520 Rather? Is it because the Suite thirty four is an 2768 02:20:18.559 --> 02:20:20.000 absolute piece of flying shit? 2769 02:20:20.440 --> 02:20:20.799 Could be? 2770 02:20:21.280 --> 02:20:23.920 Could be? Or is it more likely that these two 2771 02:20:23.959 --> 02:20:26.479 assholes were fucking around and pulled up on the cord 2772 02:20:26.520 --> 02:20:28.440 when they weren't supposed to, and the plane did what 2773 02:20:28.479 --> 02:20:29.399 the plane was supposed to do. 2774 02:20:29.840 --> 02:20:31.719 It was it was an equipment malfunction? 2775 02:20:32.360 --> 02:20:33.440 Was it? Was it? 2776 02:20:33.520 --> 02:20:33.879 Really? 2777 02:20:34.760 --> 02:20:35.159 Uh? 2778 02:20:35.280 --> 02:20:35.680 Let's see. 2779 02:20:35.680 --> 02:20:38.840 In a similar accident in twenty twenty one a TU 2780 02:20:38.920 --> 02:20:43.440 twenty two M three bomber near Coluga, a drunk pilot 2781 02:20:43.479 --> 02:20:47.799 ejected his seat, killing three personnel on the ground. Most 2782 02:20:48.040 --> 02:20:52.479 most such accidents are associated with system failures or human error. 2783 02:20:52.920 --> 02:20:56.559 I know, while what on that one? Intense combat, stress, fear, 2784 02:20:56.600 --> 02:20:59.959 and trauma often lead to Russian soldiers to use alcohol 2785 02:21:00.159 --> 02:21:04.479 for coping, lowering inhibitions and boosting confidence. A phenomenal scene 2786 02:21:04.639 --> 02:21:11.559 in Russian servicemen. Why what that's crazy? What intense combat 2787 02:21:11.760 --> 02:21:13.399 will lead people to drink? 2788 02:21:14.399 --> 02:21:14.479 What? 2789 02:21:15.559 --> 02:21:19.639 It's crazy? Anyway? Yes, A long story short, I thought 2790 02:21:19.639 --> 02:21:22.079 this is a funny one to pilots, whether they were 2791 02:21:22.159 --> 02:21:22.680 drunk or not. 2792 02:21:22.799 --> 02:21:25.079 I don't know if they got toxicology reports back. 2793 02:21:24.920 --> 02:21:28.399 From these individuals, but I will say that it has 2794 02:21:28.440 --> 02:21:31.360 been confirmed that these two assholes launched themselves into the 2795 02:21:31.440 --> 02:21:35.239 concrete dome. And yeah, they're no longer with us now 2796 02:21:36.120 --> 02:21:39.879 that being said, talking about Russia in the whole situation here, 2797 02:21:39.920 --> 02:21:43.959 Apparently there is a secret operation plan in Germany, or 2798 02:21:43.959 --> 02:21:48.040 at least based from Germany, which details how NATO would 2799 02:21:48.079 --> 02:21:54.200 fight Russia. This was developed last year, but a source 2800 02:21:54.959 --> 02:21:57.040 has blown the lid off of it and basically is 2801 02:21:57.040 --> 02:22:00.440 pointing out that NATO is planning to if if needed, 2802 02:22:01.440 --> 02:22:04.840 they would plan to send eight hundred thousand troops and 2803 02:22:04.959 --> 02:22:09.440 two hundred thousand pieces of equipment into Germany to spearhead 2804 02:22:09.440 --> 02:22:10.639 and attack into Russia. 2805 02:22:11.520 --> 02:22:13.120 So let's talk about it here. 2806 02:22:13.799 --> 02:22:16.799 Germany has begun to implement a top secret plan detailing 2807 02:22:16.799 --> 02:22:19.120 how eight hundred thousand troops would be mobilized in a 2808 02:22:19.280 --> 02:22:22.600 war with Russia if it attacked an ETO country. The 2809 02:22:22.680 --> 02:22:27.680 twelve hundred page blueprint, called Operation Planned Germany or Opland, 2810 02:22:28.239 --> 02:22:31.440 was detailed by Wall Street Journal weeks after German Chancellor 2811 02:22:31.479 --> 02:22:35.120 Frederick Murrz warned of uncertain times ahead. The threats are real, 2812 02:22:35.159 --> 02:22:37.719 he told business leaders in September. We're not at war, 2813 02:22:38.000 --> 02:22:39.760 but we no longer live in peacetime. 2814 02:22:40.479 --> 02:22:41.360 Long story short. 2815 02:22:41.399 --> 02:22:44.879 The dossier outlines the civilian infrastructure that it would form 2816 02:22:45.079 --> 02:22:48.680 key assets for moving troops to an eastern front in 2817 02:22:48.719 --> 02:22:52.000 the event of war. It details which ports, rail networks, 2818 02:22:52.120 --> 02:22:54.760 river routes and roads that would become part of NATO's 2819 02:22:54.760 --> 02:22:58.079 war machine. With Germany expected to be a staging ground 2820 02:22:58.120 --> 02:23:01.520 for troops from the European Ally and the US, top 2821 02:23:01.559 --> 02:23:04.399 German officials have been publicly stating that war with Russia 2822 02:23:04.479 --> 02:23:07.440 was on the horizon, as an invasion of Ukraine continues 2823 02:23:07.479 --> 02:23:10.719 more than three years on. This week, Germany's Foreign Minister 2824 02:23:10.840 --> 02:23:15.520 Johann Waddelful hope I'm pronouncing that right. Votalful stated new 2825 02:23:15.559 --> 02:23:19.040 intelligence showed Russia was preparing to attack a NATO member 2826 02:23:19.079 --> 02:23:22.559 before the end of the decade. This is a direct 2827 02:23:22.639 --> 02:23:26.200 quote from his post on x Putin Eyes the EU 2828 02:23:26.239 --> 02:23:29.639 and NATO, our intelligence services are issuing urgent warnings. At 2829 02:23:29.639 --> 02:23:32.799 the very least, Russia is creating the option for itself 2830 02:23:32.840 --> 02:23:35.920 to wage war against NATO by twenty twenty nine. We 2831 02:23:36.000 --> 02:23:39.680 have to deter further Russian aggression together with our partners 2832 02:23:39.680 --> 02:23:42.719 and allies. These divisions, without a doubt, have their sights 2833 02:23:42.760 --> 02:23:46.319 set on us, on the European Union, on NATO. The 2834 02:23:46.319 --> 02:23:48.479 threat to our country from Russia is no longer a 2835 02:23:48.520 --> 02:23:53.040 distant concern, it is already a reality. So long story short, 2836 02:23:53.120 --> 02:23:55.879 this secret plan, if you want to call it, that 2837 02:23:56.040 --> 02:23:59.239 was finally released and they are showing how if this 2838 02:23:59.399 --> 02:24:03.159 was to take place, they already have the plans implemented 2839 02:24:03.360 --> 02:24:07.719 to make an eight hundred thousand troop movement staged and 2840 02:24:07.799 --> 02:24:10.760 ready to take off from Germany, which I think is 2841 02:24:11.000 --> 02:24:13.680 pretty remarkable, and not just that the fact that this 2842 02:24:13.920 --> 02:24:16.600 many would be ready to go that quickly, but the 2843 02:24:16.600 --> 02:24:19.000 fact that they already had the plan laid out, which 2844 02:24:19.040 --> 02:24:21.959 is mind blowing to me. But anyway, let's get into 2845 02:24:22.040 --> 02:24:25.920 this next article from CNN talking about Russia, talking about 2846 02:24:25.920 --> 02:24:30.000 the war in Ukraine. Ukraine presents response to US peace plan. 2847 02:24:30.079 --> 02:24:33.719 As Trump says, European leaders want a meeting. So it 2848 02:24:33.760 --> 02:24:36.120 depends on what week that we look at the situation 2849 02:24:36.200 --> 02:24:40.520 with Russia and Ukraine. But some would say that Zelensky 2850 02:24:40.559 --> 02:24:42.239 has been ready for peace for quite some time, and 2851 02:24:42.319 --> 02:24:44.680 Russia keeps saying no. Then every time Russia looks like 2852 02:24:44.719 --> 02:24:46.440 it's ready to come to the peace table, something else 2853 02:24:46.479 --> 02:24:50.360 takes place. So Russia delivered I'm sorry. Ukraine delivered its 2854 02:24:50.360 --> 02:24:54.040 response to the latest UF drafted peace proposal aimed at 2855 02:24:54.079 --> 02:24:56.559 any of the war with Russia to the Trump administration 2856 02:24:56.639 --> 02:25:00.360 on Wednesday, US and Ukrainian officials told CNN as the 2857 02:25:00.399 --> 02:25:03.440 contours of a tenuous potential deal took shape, and the 2858 02:25:03.559 --> 02:25:06.600 US president continued to make clear he wants the conflictors 2859 02:25:06.600 --> 02:25:09.360 off quickly. Efforts to end the year's long war have 2860 02:25:09.520 --> 02:25:13.319 sharply accelerated in recent weeks. President Trump on Wednesday suggested 2861 02:25:13.360 --> 02:25:16.399 a solution could soon be figured out, telling reporters at 2862 02:25:16.440 --> 02:25:18.120 the White House that a lot of people say it's 2863 02:25:18.120 --> 02:25:21.079 closer than it's ever been. Well, especially now that Russia 2864 02:25:21.120 --> 02:25:23.639 just lost its Iraqi oil fields. I feel like that 2865 02:25:23.680 --> 02:25:27.760 can't be understated, he said, discuss Ukraine in pretty strong 2866 02:25:27.799 --> 02:25:30.920 words with his British, French, and German counterparts, whom he 2867 02:25:30.959 --> 02:25:33.159 said have floated the idea of Trump flying to Europe 2868 02:25:33.200 --> 02:25:36.600 for a meeting along with Ukrainian resident Zelensky. This weekend. 2869 02:25:37.319 --> 02:25:40.840 We'll make a determination depending on what they come back with. 2870 02:25:41.000 --> 02:25:43.600 Trump said, we don't want to be wasting time. A 2871 02:25:43.680 --> 02:25:48.479 European diplomat also described discussions as progressive, progressing quickly amid 2872 02:25:48.520 --> 02:25:52.120 continuing pressure and impatience from the US President. There has 2873 02:25:52.159 --> 02:25:55.040 been a frenzy of diplomacy following the revelation less than 2874 02:25:55.120 --> 02:25:58.319 a month ago of a US drafted Russian backed twenty 2875 02:25:58.360 --> 02:26:00.440 eight point draft proposal to the war. 2876 02:26:00.760 --> 02:26:02.399 We talked about that a little bit last week. 2877 02:26:02.799 --> 02:26:05.520 After a series of consultations with Kiev and a meeting 2878 02:26:05.559 --> 02:26:08.879 in Moscow, the twenty eight point plan was wind winnowed 2879 02:26:09.040 --> 02:26:11.959 down to a twenty point meant to make it palatable 2880 02:26:12.040 --> 02:26:14.719 to both warring parties. It is among a set of 2881 02:26:14.719 --> 02:26:18.559 three documents being negotiated, along with one on security guarantees 2882 02:26:18.600 --> 02:26:22.120 and another on economic recovery. Zelenski said he had a 2883 02:26:22.159 --> 02:26:26.200 meeting on the latter on Wednesday. Discussions are ongoing, and 2884 02:26:26.239 --> 02:26:29.360 in this it is unclear what changes, if any, Kiev 2885 02:26:29.399 --> 02:26:32.639 made to the documents in its latest response. However, two 2886 02:26:32.680 --> 02:26:35.479 European diplomats familiar with the contents of the twenty point 2887 02:26:35.559 --> 02:26:38.600 draft said it proposed the creation of a demilitarized zone 2888 02:26:38.760 --> 02:26:42.280 along the line of contact, and there we have it. 2889 02:26:42.799 --> 02:26:45.360 We were saying this whole time that it's more than 2890 02:26:45.440 --> 02:26:48.040 likely that a DMZ very similar to in North and 2891 02:26:48.079 --> 02:26:52.200 South Korea is going to be formed along the borderline 2892 02:26:52.200 --> 02:26:54.600 of what has been taken by Russia and what is 2893 02:26:54.600 --> 02:26:56.399 currently still owned by Ukraine. 2894 02:26:56.760 --> 02:26:59.120 So I honestly think that that's going to be the 2895 02:26:59.159 --> 02:27:00.399 only way moving forward. 2896 02:27:00.479 --> 02:27:03.920 But we shall see. Right, It's called for security guarantees 2897 02:27:04.000 --> 02:27:06.840 for our Ukraine in line with NATO's Article five, which 2898 02:27:06.879 --> 02:27:11.239 calls for mutual defense of NATO allies. It proposes membership 2899 02:27:11.239 --> 02:27:14.280 for Ukraine in the European Union by twenty twenty seven. 2900 02:27:14.639 --> 02:27:18.360 Good things. It removes language burying, I'm sorry, it removes 2901 02:27:18.440 --> 02:27:21.399 language barring Ukraine from ever joining NATO. Instead, it does 2902 02:27:21.399 --> 02:27:24.879 not mention potentially Ukrainian membership in the Defense Alliance. It 2903 02:27:24.920 --> 02:27:28.040 also calls for elections in Ukraine, something both Trump and 2904 02:27:28.040 --> 02:27:31.319 the Kremlin have raised. Zelenski has said he would be 2905 02:27:31.399 --> 02:27:33.799 open to holding elections in the next sixty to ninety 2906 02:27:33.920 --> 02:27:35.680 days if security could be guaranteed. 2907 02:27:36.319 --> 02:27:37.680 Yeah, that's dude. 2908 02:27:37.719 --> 02:27:41.040 He was an actor, he was a comedian, and he 2909 02:27:41.159 --> 02:27:44.479 got elected to president because you know, he was very 2910 02:27:44.479 --> 02:27:47.360 well liked by his people. Then he found himself in 2911 02:27:48.399 --> 02:27:53.079 god such a clusterfuck of a war that he specifically 2912 02:27:53.120 --> 02:27:55.719 he didn't ask for, and now he's left to field 2913 02:27:55.719 --> 02:27:58.719 it per the Ukrainian constitution. And I know so many 2914 02:27:58.719 --> 02:28:01.799 people why as the Ukraine held elections because Zelensky is 2915 02:28:01.799 --> 02:28:06.479 such a despot. Per the Ukrainian constitution, they cannot hold 2916 02:28:06.520 --> 02:28:10.000 elections when there is open warring conflict being done in 2917 02:28:10.079 --> 02:28:13.559 their land. So even if Zelensky wanted to hold elections 2918 02:28:13.600 --> 02:28:17.840 by their constitution, he couldn't have this entire time. And 2919 02:28:17.920 --> 02:28:20.200 I know people are going to disagree with that statement. 2920 02:28:20.239 --> 02:28:23.120 Look look it up. That's not allowed in Ukrainian law. 2921 02:28:23.520 --> 02:28:26.239 So he is saying, look, if security could be guaranteed, 2922 02:28:26.840 --> 02:28:29.319 have an election. Take this job from me. Let me 2923 02:28:29.360 --> 02:28:31.319 go back to being a funny guy on TV. I'm 2924 02:28:31.360 --> 02:28:34.719 over this shit, which I can at least appreciate. According 2925 02:28:34.760 --> 02:28:37.959 to the diplomats, the updated twenty point draft contained elements 2926 02:28:38.000 --> 02:28:40.840 from the twenty eight point that are still likely to 2927 02:28:40.920 --> 02:28:44.600 draw concern from Ukrainians and Europeans. Among them are formal 2928 02:28:44.879 --> 02:28:48.479 US recognition of Russian occupied territory. This would mark a 2929 02:28:48.520 --> 02:28:51.760 stunning reversal of long standing US policy to acknowledge Ukraine's 2930 02:28:51.840 --> 02:28:55.639 territorial integrity and not recognize forcible changes in territory. The 2931 02:28:55.719 --> 02:28:58.559 latest US proposal also calls for a personnel cap of 2932 02:28:58.600 --> 02:29:02.440 eight hundred thousand on Ukraine military, a small increase from 2933 02:29:02.520 --> 02:29:04.520 the six hundred thousand person cap in the twenty eight 2934 02:29:04.559 --> 02:29:07.680 point plan. So okay, So even then, from twenty eight 2935 02:29:07.680 --> 02:29:10.120 point to twenty point these two plans here they went 2936 02:29:10.120 --> 02:29:13.440 from six hundred thousand to eight hundred thousand. I like it. 2937 02:29:13.799 --> 02:29:16.360 I like it. I want countries to have strong militaries. 2938 02:29:16.959 --> 02:29:19.639 It also describes the US and Russia deciding the fate 2939 02:29:19.680 --> 02:29:23.559 of Russia's frozen assets. Even as negotiations continue, there is 2940 02:29:23.600 --> 02:29:27.079 recognition inside the US government that among allies that the 2941 02:29:27.159 --> 02:29:32.760 discussions are fragile and issues like land concessions could stemy 2942 02:29:32.959 --> 02:29:35.680 the peace efforts. There is still no sign that Russian 2943 02:29:35.719 --> 02:29:39.639 President Putin actually wants a peace settlement. However, European and 2944 02:29:39.719 --> 02:29:42.120 NATO officials have said this, if there is a way 2945 02:29:42.120 --> 02:29:44.319 to bridge the divide between the two sides, we're the 2946 02:29:44.360 --> 02:29:46.239 only ones in the world that can do it, and 2947 02:29:46.280 --> 02:29:49.159 that's what we're trying to do. That Secretary of State 2948 02:29:49.200 --> 02:29:51.920 Mark or Rubio said last week. Ultimately, it's going to 2949 02:29:51.959 --> 02:29:54.079 be up to them. If they can decide that they 2950 02:29:54.120 --> 02:29:56.040 don't want to end the war, then the war will 2951 02:29:56.079 --> 02:29:59.959 just continue. So again, sounds like Zelenski's willing to play ball, 2952 02:30:00.280 --> 02:30:03.159 but Putin is. There's no indication that Putin's even willing 2953 02:30:03.200 --> 02:30:06.479 to come to the peace talks right now. Shocker. All right, 2954 02:30:07.239 --> 02:30:10.600 now we're gonna jump over to Asia Southeast age to 2955 02:30:10.680 --> 02:30:11.600 be more exact. 2956 02:30:11.959 --> 02:30:13.840 Japan earthquake live. 2957 02:30:14.280 --> 02:30:18.399 New trimmor measuring five point seven magnitude hits days after 2958 02:30:18.520 --> 02:30:23.399 a megaquake warning was issued. The megaquake warning covers approximately 2959 02:30:23.440 --> 02:30:26.479 eight hundred miles from Chiba to Hokkaido. 2960 02:30:26.760 --> 02:30:28.200 I hope I pronounce those words right. 2961 02:30:28.440 --> 02:30:30.840 An earthquake measuring five point seven on the Richter scale 2962 02:30:30.879 --> 02:30:33.559 has been recorded off the coast of Japan's main island, 2963 02:30:33.639 --> 02:30:37.719 two days after a trimmer measuring seven point five goal 2964 02:30:37.840 --> 02:30:40.799 So just back to back massive quakes here. It is 2965 02:30:40.840 --> 02:30:44.719 not yet clear how much damage the latest earthquake has caused, 2966 02:30:44.959 --> 02:30:47.559 but it comes as the north and east of the 2967 02:30:47.559 --> 02:30:50.639 country are on high alert. Monday night's earthquake injured at 2968 02:30:50.719 --> 02:30:54.159 least fifty one people, according to the Firing Disaster Management Agency. 2969 02:30:54.440 --> 02:30:57.840 It also triggered widespread tsunami warnings, with waves up to 2970 02:30:58.000 --> 02:31:02.680 seventy centimeters reported in several coastal communities. I speak freedom 2971 02:31:02.760 --> 02:31:04.959 units of not one hundred percent of how big seventy 2972 02:31:05.399 --> 02:31:10.559 centimeters is. I feel like that's probably like like six feet. 2973 02:31:11.399 --> 02:31:14.079 I don't know. I don't know. The quake struck at 2974 02:31:14.159 --> 02:31:16.959 around eleven to fifteen pm in the Pacific Ocean, roughly 2975 02:31:17.000 --> 02:31:20.559 fifty miles off the coast of a moriy. On Tuesday, 2976 02:31:20.639 --> 02:31:23.680 Japan's weather agency issued its highest level warning that a mega. 2977 02:31:23.479 --> 02:31:26.280 Quake could follow Monday's initial. 2978 02:31:25.959 --> 02:31:30.120 Trimmer and megaquake is an earthquake measuring eight point zero 2979 02:31:30.200 --> 02:31:33.520 or higher. The warning covers approximately eight hundred miles, stretching 2980 02:31:33.520 --> 02:31:37.120 from Japan's northeastern coast of Chiba to just east of 2981 02:31:37.159 --> 02:31:40.639 Tokyo to Hokkaido. Tuesday's notice was the first time this 2982 02:31:40.680 --> 02:31:43.200 top tier alert has been issued since the warning system 2983 02:31:43.319 --> 02:31:46.959 was launched in twenty twenty two. So, like I brought 2984 02:31:47.040 --> 02:31:49.440 up in the very beginning of this episode, Japan experience 2985 02:31:49.840 --> 02:31:53.239 a seven point five two days later, a five point seven, 2986 02:31:53.760 --> 02:31:57.079 that is that is detrimental and keep in mind that's 2987 02:31:57.120 --> 02:31:59.639 the whole reason why the Fukushima nuclear plant had the 2988 02:31:59.680 --> 02:32:02.600 crack happened was because of a tsunami caused by an earthquake. 2989 02:32:03.680 --> 02:32:06.440 So I don't know how bad the extent of the 2990 02:32:06.520 --> 02:32:08.200 damages with these two quakes. 2991 02:32:08.200 --> 02:32:08.959 It just took place. 2992 02:32:09.479 --> 02:32:13.600 I'm hoping that everything is okay. 2993 02:32:12.319 --> 02:32:16.000 But I'm also not very optimistic here, Sam, go ahead. 2994 02:32:17.360 --> 02:32:19.840 He said in twenty twenty two, correct. 2995 02:32:19.760 --> 02:32:21.920 That's when the system came online for this, like high 2996 02:32:21.959 --> 02:32:23.559 alert for megaquakes. 2997 02:32:23.879 --> 02:32:27.440 Oh, that's also the year that the creator of yugyo 2998 02:32:28.319 --> 02:32:28.879 Oh drown. 2999 02:32:30.000 --> 02:32:31.959 Oh, so he died. 3000 02:32:32.280 --> 02:32:34.079 Do you know if it was a died as a result? 3001 02:32:34.159 --> 02:32:36.120 He said it was from a rip current?

Later reports state of that tak Takahashi had 3033 02:34:01.360 --> 02:34:03.719 died in the afternoon of July fourth while assisting in 3034 02:34:03.799 --> 02:34:07.479 rescue of three others who were caught in a rip current. 3035 02:34:07.719 --> 02:34:10.559 And one of them was a US service member. 3036 02:34:11.600 --> 02:34:14.000 Wow. 3037 02:34:16.159 --> 02:34:21.760 So that's even more that that that's even more symbolic 3038 02:34:21.799 --> 02:34:24.120 because it's the both of the birth of America. But 3039 02:34:24.319 --> 02:34:28.959 it's a Japanese Uh, one of one of my favorite 3040 02:34:29.000 --> 02:34:32.319 ones anyway, jumped in to save them. 3041 02:34:32.040 --> 02:34:35.920 And I don't know, man, it's like, uh, things are 3042 02:34:35.959 --> 02:34:37.680 finally healing and everything. 3043 02:34:37.799 --> 02:34:41.079 And it means something little bit extra to me, I 3044 02:34:41.079 --> 02:34:44.920 guess because it's like both of my sides are helping 3045 02:34:44.920 --> 02:34:46.840 each other and it's symbolic to me. 3046 02:34:47.360 --> 02:34:49.120 Yeah, I could hear that for sure. 3047 02:34:49.399 --> 02:34:49.799 Yeah. 3048 02:34:49.840 --> 02:34:51.840 Well, r I p to the creator of Yu gi 3049 02:34:51.920 --> 02:34:55.680 Oh who died a hero absolutely. 3050 02:34:55.200 --> 02:34:59.600 At sixty at sixty and he went out like like 3051 02:34:59.639 --> 02:35:00.639 a true he dog. 3052 02:35:01.159 --> 02:35:06.159 Absolutely absolutely rip. Now let's get into this BBC article 3053 02:35:06.239 --> 02:35:12.639 Japan protests after Chinese fighter jets lock radar on Japanese planes. Yeah, 3054 02:35:12.959 --> 02:35:15.040 as we're talking about Southeast Asia, we're talking about Japan, 3055 02:35:15.040 --> 02:35:17.079 we're talking about China and all these things. So here 3056 02:35:17.159 --> 02:35:19.959 it was Japan had some jets that were running some 3057 02:35:20.159 --> 02:35:24.639 training operations in international waters. They were not in some 3058 02:35:25.440 --> 02:35:28.920 you know, contested air zone by any means, and Japan 3059 02:35:29.399 --> 02:35:32.239 out there flying their jets just doing their thing, had 3060 02:35:32.319 --> 02:35:38.360 Chinese fighter jets lock onto them. Yeah, Japan has protested 3061 02:35:38.399 --> 02:35:41.680 after Chinese fighter jets locked radars on Japanese aircraft as 3062 02:35:41.760 --> 02:35:45.479 tension between the two nations worsened. Locking radar onto an 3063 02:35:45.479 --> 02:35:48.239 aircraft is considered a threat because it can signal a 3064 02:35:48.280 --> 02:35:49.120 potential attack. 3065 02:35:49.319 --> 02:35:50.319 Yeah, one hundred percent. 3066 02:35:50.600 --> 02:35:53.200 Japan said there were two such incidents Saturday off its 3067 02:35:53.239 --> 02:35:56.959 southern Okinawa Islands. Japan said it scrambled fighter jets in 3068 02:35:57.040 --> 02:36:00.000 response to the Chinese J fifteen fighter jets, while Beijing 3069 02:36:00.079 --> 02:36:03.399 accused Tokyo of quote unquote harassing its forces during a 3070 02:36:03.440 --> 02:36:07.399 training exercise. No injuries or damage were reported. Obviously, so 3071 02:36:07.440 --> 02:36:10.079 the diplomatic ties between Japan and China have spiraled since 3072 02:36:10.159 --> 02:36:13.879 last month after Japanese Prime Minister Seney Takashi hope i 3073 02:36:13.920 --> 02:36:17.000 pronounce that right, suggested that Tokyo could take military action 3074 02:36:17.079 --> 02:36:20.520 in Beijing attack Taiwan, which he did and which they should. 3075 02:36:21.040 --> 02:36:25.239 Beijing views it self governed Taiwan or views self governed 3076 02:36:25.239 --> 02:36:28.000 Taiwan as part of its territory, and has not ruled 3077 02:36:28.040 --> 02:36:30.840 out the use of force to quote unquote reunite with it. Yeah, 3078 02:36:30.840 --> 02:36:33.520 they really just need to let it go. Honestly, both 3079 02:36:33.520 --> 02:36:36.959 sides have since engaged in an increasingly hostile rhetoric towards each other, 3080 02:36:37.159 --> 02:36:40.760 With the widening riff affective affecting daily life for citizens 3081 02:36:40.840 --> 02:36:44.079 in both countries. Last week, China and Japan's coastguards gave 3082 02:36:44.159 --> 02:36:47.440 conflicting accounts of a confrontation near disputed islands in the 3083 02:36:47.479 --> 02:36:50.879 East Chinese Sea. Okay, so now we have this situation 3084 02:36:50.920 --> 02:36:54.159 going on with these jets. A Japanese Defense Ministry officials 3085 02:36:54.159 --> 02:36:57.159 said the intention of the Chinese JA fifteen jets was unclear, 3086 02:36:57.520 --> 02:37:01.040 but added that there was no need to onto Japanese 3087 02:37:01.079 --> 02:37:02.600 planes if their intention. 3088 02:37:02.440 --> 02:37:04.079 Was to locate other aircraft. 3089 02:37:04.520 --> 02:37:08.319 Agreed. The J fifteen jets, which were launched from China's 3090 02:37:08.399 --> 02:37:14.120 laon Layoning Laiing Sure aircraft carrier, first locked its radar 3091 02:37:14.200 --> 02:37:17.000 on Japanese jets at sixteen thirty two local time, which 3092 02:37:17.040 --> 02:37:19.879 is four thirty two to the civilians out there on Saturday, 3093 02:37:20.639 --> 02:37:23.760 and again at around eighteen thirty seven, which is six 3094 02:37:23.920 --> 02:37:26.280 thirty seven, so basically two hours apart from each other 3095 02:37:26.319 --> 02:37:29.840 they locked onto these jets. The official added that the 3096 02:37:29.920 --> 02:37:32.879 Chinese or the Japanese aircraft did not do anything that 3097 02:37:32.920 --> 02:37:34.520 could be considered a provocation. 3098 02:37:35.079 --> 02:37:36.399 Is extremely regrettable. 3099 02:37:36.520 --> 02:37:40.159 Japan has strongly protested Chinese side, and we have firmly 3100 02:37:40.200 --> 02:37:44.520 requested measures to prevent reoccurrence, Takashi told reporters Sunday in 3101 02:37:44.600 --> 02:37:51.840 a in the Wajima ishi Ishikawa Prefecture. Yeah, we will 3102 02:37:51.920 --> 02:37:56.280 respond calmly and resolutely. The Chinese Navy, however, said Japan's 3103 02:37:56.280 --> 02:38:00.520 claim was completely inconsistent with the facts shocker, and told 3104 02:38:00.559 --> 02:38:02.680 Tokyo to immediately stop. 3105 02:38:02.479 --> 02:38:03.719 Slandering and smearing. 3106 02:38:04.200 --> 02:38:06.959 It added that its training exercise in the area had 3107 02:38:06.959 --> 02:38:12.200 been previously announced. Okay, no one's disputing that Japan wasn't 3108 02:38:12.239 --> 02:38:16.159 trying to provoke the Japanese situation. They were out there 3109 02:38:16.159 --> 02:38:19.040 doing their own training mission. Everybody knew each other was there. 3110 02:38:19.319 --> 02:38:23.200 But the Chinese jets still decided to lock on. Yeah, 3111 02:38:23.239 --> 02:38:26.559 that's not good. That's really not good. That's a That's 3112 02:38:26.639 --> 02:38:30.959 kind of like pointing a weapon if you will. You're 3113 02:38:31.000 --> 02:38:33.559 not putting your finger on the trigger. The weapons still 3114 02:38:33.600 --> 02:38:36.280 may be on safe, but you're still pointing the barrel, 3115 02:38:36.760 --> 02:38:39.120 and that's not good for business. You know, that could 3116 02:38:39.120 --> 02:38:41.520 be taken as a threat, and most people would take 3117 02:38:41.559 --> 02:38:44.600 it as a threat. This comes two weeks after Japan 3118 02:38:44.680 --> 02:38:47.799 scrambled aircraft when they suspected Chinese drone was detected off 3119 02:38:47.920 --> 02:38:53.239 yong Yo Naguni, Okay, near Taiwan Tokyo has said it 3120 02:38:53.319 --> 02:38:56.440 is planning to deploy missiles from yan Naguni, in a 3121 02:38:56.520 --> 02:39:00.440 move that has angered Beijing. A month of heightened have 3122 02:39:00.479 --> 02:39:04.360 seen China ask its citizens to avoid traveling to Japan shocker. 3123 02:39:04.920 --> 02:39:07.719 China has also banned the importation of seafood from Japan 3124 02:39:08.000 --> 02:39:11.559 and suspended the screening of popular Japanese films. Bro China 3125 02:39:11.680 --> 02:39:14.079 is starving. They don't need to be putting any kind 3126 02:39:14.079 --> 02:39:16.799 of restrictions on how much food they can get right now. 3127 02:39:16.879 --> 02:39:19.840 But sure, yeah, go ahead, gee starve your people some more. 3128 02:39:19.920 --> 02:39:21.799 That's a that's a good thing. That's never gone wrong 3129 02:39:21.840 --> 02:39:26.840 before in history anyway. All right, next topic of discussion. 3130 02:39:26.879 --> 02:39:29.840 While we are still sticking to the Southeast Asia Central 3131 02:39:29.959 --> 02:39:34.760 area here, Thailand and Cambodia keep fighting across contested border 3132 02:39:34.879 --> 02:39:38.239 ahead of expected Trump calls. You know, there is a 3133 02:39:38.280 --> 02:39:41.239 little a little video here. Let's let's listen in on 3134 02:39:41.280 --> 02:39:43.280 this one and see what we can learn from it. 3135 02:39:43.360 --> 02:39:46.840 In ten months, I ended eight wars, including Kosovo, Serbia, 3136 02:39:47.319 --> 02:39:50.840 Pakistan and India. They were going at it, Israel and 3137 02:39:50.920 --> 02:39:54.000 a Ron, Egypt and Ethiopia. You didn't know about that, 3138 02:39:54.280 --> 02:39:58.440 Armenia and Azerbaijan, and I hate to say this one 3139 02:39:58.520 --> 02:40:01.719 named Cambodia Thailand that started up today tomorrow, I have 3140 02:40:01.719 --> 02:40:03.440 to make a phone call, and I think they'll get 3141 02:40:03.440 --> 02:40:06.559 his Who else could say, I'm going to make a 3142 02:40:06.600 --> 02:40:11.040 phone call and stop a war of two very powerful 3143 02:40:11.799 --> 02:40:13.559 countries Thailand and Cambodia. 3144 02:40:13.559 --> 02:40:16.479 Are they going at it again? But I'll do it. 3145 02:40:18.760 --> 02:40:19.120 All right. 3146 02:40:19.280 --> 02:40:21.600 So he's talking about how Trump is talking about how 3147 02:40:21.600 --> 02:40:23.040 he is going to be the one to calm down 3148 02:40:23.079 --> 02:40:24.520 the fighting list and the fight he's been going on 3149 02:40:24.559 --> 02:40:27.920 there for a little while over border disputes. And I 3150 02:40:28.200 --> 02:40:29.840 really don't know if Trump is going to have any 3151 02:40:29.840 --> 02:40:31.920 pull in that regard. We can hope. Before I read 3152 02:40:31.959 --> 02:40:40.200 the article, Sam go ahead, Sam oh okay, talk with 3153 02:40:40.280 --> 02:40:45.159 that bum anyway. This is from Bangkok. Fighting between Thailand 3154 02:40:45.159 --> 02:40:47.879 and Cambodia entered its fourth day on Thursday, as both 3155 02:40:47.920 --> 02:40:51.159 sides waited for a promised telephone call from US President 3156 02:40:51.200 --> 02:40:53.680 Donald Trump, who says he believes he can again in 3157 02:40:53.680 --> 02:40:57.479 the conflict between the two Southeast Asian nations. On Wednesday, 3158 02:40:57.520 --> 02:41:00.079 clashes at more than a dozen locations along the the 3159 02:41:00.200 --> 02:41:03.719 eight and seventeen kilometer Thai Cambodian border saw some of 3160 02:41:03.760 --> 02:41:06.840 the most intense fighting since a five day battle in July, 3161 02:41:07.280 --> 02:41:11.120 which was the worst conflict in recent history. We're not 3162 02:41:11.159 --> 02:41:12.920 gonna read the entire thing I want to here. Trump's 3163 02:41:12.959 --> 02:41:15.280 basically saying he could end the war. We've talked about 3164 02:41:15.319 --> 02:41:18.559 the Cambodia Thailand situation a good bit from you know, 3165 02:41:18.680 --> 02:41:22.280 from past episodes here, but here are here's a map 3166 02:41:22.920 --> 02:41:25.639 of all of the border classes that have taken place. 3167 02:41:25.719 --> 02:41:28.360 It wasn't in one area, although there was two main 3168 02:41:28.440 --> 02:41:32.840 spots in the north or north of Cambodia southeast of 3169 02:41:32.920 --> 02:41:36.159 Thailand where they had the most fighting take place, but 3170 02:41:36.280 --> 02:41:39.600 even all the way down on the coastline the southernmost 3171 02:41:39.600 --> 02:41:44.319 point for Thailand and almost the westernmost point for Cambodia, 3172 02:41:44.639 --> 02:41:48.360 they saw border classes there too. So again Thailand and 3173 02:41:48.399 --> 02:41:52.120 Cambodia are back on the warpath against each other over 3174 02:41:52.159 --> 02:41:55.920 these border disputes. I don't know what to really expect 3175 02:41:56.000 --> 02:42:02.559 here of the two, I have my preferred country, but 3176 02:42:02.639 --> 02:42:07.000 that's just speaking on my own biases here. I don't 3177 02:42:07.040 --> 02:42:09.200 know what either one is really wanting to gain from this, 3178 02:42:09.280 --> 02:42:12.239 other than more land and more territorial issues. But these 3179 02:42:12.239 --> 02:42:14.799 countries have had beef with each other for quite some time. 3180 02:42:15.280 --> 02:42:18.280 It's boiling over and it has been for months and months. 3181 02:42:18.520 --> 02:42:20.520 There was a lull in the fighting for a couple 3182 02:42:20.559 --> 02:42:22.639 of months there, but there was still some uneasy tensions. 3183 02:42:22.639 --> 02:42:25.360 There was firefights and skirmishes that were taken off. Even 3184 02:42:25.360 --> 02:42:27.920 from July to now, there's been a few firefights that 3185 02:42:27.959 --> 02:42:31.040 have taken place. Don't get me wrong, but yeah, apparently 3186 02:42:31.079 --> 02:42:33.959 this is a big offensive that has taken place. Right now, 3187 02:42:34.639 --> 02:42:38.079 we'll see if it spawns off into something even more detrimental. 3188 02:42:38.959 --> 02:42:40.520 All right, now, we are. 3189 02:42:40.440 --> 02:42:44.360 Getting to the end of this episode and I wanted 3190 02:42:44.360 --> 02:42:47.920 to end this on a more positive note. Although some 3191 02:42:47.959 --> 02:42:50.680 people might take it as a not good thing, I 3192 02:42:50.719 --> 02:42:53.520 personally think it's a positive that I wish all countries 3193 02:42:53.520 --> 02:42:57.479 would start doing. This is from the BBC. Australia has 3194 02:42:57.559 --> 02:43:01.760 banned social media for kids under sixteen. How will it work? 3195 02:43:02.239 --> 02:43:06.479 As of time of recording, it took effect today. If 3196 02:43:06.479 --> 02:43:09.079 you are sixteen years old in Australia or I'm sorry, 3197 02:43:09.120 --> 02:43:12.040 if you are fifteen and under and you have some 3198 02:43:12.079 --> 02:43:15.840 sort of a social media account, you must, by federal law, 3199 02:43:16.520 --> 02:43:20.680 deactivate it, delete it, block it, whatever the case. You 3200 02:43:20.760 --> 02:43:23.120 are not allowed to be on social media until you 3201 02:43:23.159 --> 02:43:26.559 are sixteen years old, and I personally agree with this 3202 02:43:26.600 --> 02:43:29.840 one hundred percent. Now, some people will say that this is, 3203 02:43:30.360 --> 02:43:33.159 you know, infringing on the freedoms right, and it should 3204 02:43:33.159 --> 02:43:35.600 be up to these children's parents to decide if they 3205 02:43:35.680 --> 02:43:37.639 can or cannot be on social media. 3206 02:43:37.840 --> 02:43:40.680 I hear that. I hear that, and there's something to 3207 02:43:40.760 --> 02:43:41.959 be said there. One hundred percent. 3208 02:43:42.559 --> 02:43:46.399 That being said, parents do not do their due diligence 3209 02:43:46.520 --> 02:43:48.360 one hundred percent of the time when it comes to 3210 02:43:48.399 --> 02:43:51.200 the amount of Internet and the activities that their children 3211 02:43:51.280 --> 02:43:55.760 are doing on them. And there is more predatory behavior 3212 02:43:56.159 --> 02:44:00.600 now than ever before throughout human history, specifically on social 3213 02:44:00.639 --> 02:44:04.840 media targeting the youth. I think this is an inherent 3214 02:44:05.120 --> 02:44:08.920 good and I wish that every country would pass very 3215 02:44:08.920 --> 02:44:11.600 similar legislation to where you're not allowed to have a 3216 02:44:11.680 --> 02:44:16.040 social media account of any regard until you I personally 3217 02:44:16.040 --> 02:44:18.200 would say until you're an adult, but I would make 3218 02:44:18.239 --> 02:44:21.120 the concession to sixteen. Personally, that's just my hot take 3219 02:44:21.600 --> 02:44:23.680 before we read the article, Sam, go ahead. 3220 02:44:25.920 --> 02:44:29.360 I'm gonna have to disagree, and it's mostly because I 3221 02:44:30.639 --> 02:44:35.079 I have I had a Facebook since I was like 3222 02:44:35.399 --> 02:44:36.520 seven or eight or whatever. 3223 02:44:36.600 --> 02:44:37.520 But I've used it. 3224 02:44:37.600 --> 02:44:41.520 I've used social media and everything to stay in contact 3225 02:44:41.520 --> 02:44:44.840 with family. That's that's all over the day, all over 3226 02:44:44.879 --> 02:44:48.239 the country, and all I think that the parents, it 3227 02:44:48.319 --> 02:44:50.040 should be up to the parents. I believe that it 3228 02:44:50.079 --> 02:44:54.200 should be the parents should have more of the the 3229 02:44:54.319 --> 02:44:57.920 more of a hens on approach with their children and 3230 02:44:58.040 --> 02:45:04.639 their the ices. Though I do understand the the thought 3231 02:45:04.760 --> 02:45:12.520 concept and everything, like, because I remember Gorgish and livelys 3232 02:45:12.719 --> 02:45:16.959 was a thing in high school and everything. Like, I 3233 02:45:17.040 --> 02:45:20.120 kind of regret seeing the chain sign cartel video as 3234 02:45:20.200 --> 02:45:24.159 young as I did, But then again, I've seen much 3235 02:45:24.159 --> 02:45:29.440 worse than like actual life. So it's like, there's always 3236 02:45:29.440 --> 02:45:32.280 gonna be there's always gonna be evil. And you said 3237 02:45:32.280 --> 02:45:36.680 that there's more predatory stuff. Yes, that is true. At 3238 02:45:36.719 --> 02:45:40.440 the social media is accessible for it. But at the 3239 02:45:40.479 --> 02:45:41.280 same time. 3240 02:45:42.280 --> 02:45:48.000 You if you start to obstruct. 3241 02:45:46.760 --> 02:45:50.840 You start to restrict things that can easy thought that 3242 02:45:50.840 --> 02:45:54.159 that can easy be a foot heel of saying Okay, 3243 02:45:54.159 --> 02:45:56.440 we're gonna censor this speech in this speech because that's 3244 02:45:56.440 --> 02:45:59.680 offensive to the children's and that that's a quick and 3245 02:46:00.239 --> 02:46:00.879 way for us. 3246 02:46:00.799 --> 02:46:02.079 To become just like the UK. 3247 02:46:03.319 --> 02:46:06.040 I hear this, and I absolutely see that it could 3248 02:46:06.079 --> 02:46:09.159 be a slippery slope to impede on free speech and 3249 02:46:09.200 --> 02:46:13.159 all the things. I fully hear this, but dude, the 3250 02:46:13.200 --> 02:46:16.000 fact that you had a Facebook page at seven years old, 3251 02:46:16.040 --> 02:46:17.719 that is mind blowing to me. 3252 02:46:18.079 --> 02:46:20.799 Keep in mind, my mother, my mother had the pastord, 3253 02:46:20.879 --> 02:46:23.399 my mother had the email and everything to get into it. 3254 02:46:23.840 --> 02:46:25.719 And I get that, but I mean, like you said, 3255 02:46:25.719 --> 02:46:29.520 we can also agree that there's more predators online now 3256 02:46:29.959 --> 02:46:32.600 than there was ten years ago, twenty years ago, whatever 3257 02:46:32.639 --> 02:46:33.000 the case. 3258 02:46:33.120 --> 02:46:33.360 Right. 3259 02:46:34.760 --> 02:46:40.399 See, and though I think that we shouldn't take it 3260 02:46:40.479 --> 02:46:43.200 out on the children, we should look more into those 3261 02:46:43.239 --> 02:46:47.159 and hey, if you get convicted of said crime, you 3262 02:46:48.120 --> 02:46:53.120 ex out from society, we throw you in the desert 3263 02:46:53.200 --> 02:46:54.600 and bare your it deep. 3264 02:46:54.959 --> 02:46:58.399 I mean, yes, we should be having way harsher punishments 3265 02:46:58.440 --> 02:46:59.760 for those that hurt children. 3266 02:47:00.040 --> 02:47:01.680 One hundred percent agreement with this too. 3267 02:47:02.239 --> 02:47:03.959 But also milkstone. 3268 02:47:03.479 --> 02:47:05.600 Amun the neck can toss him in the sea. 3269 02:47:06.559 --> 02:47:07.200 Absolutely. 3270 02:47:07.760 --> 02:47:13.280 That being said, kids are stupid, and that's why roadblocks, 3271 02:47:13.479 --> 02:47:16.799 for instance, I can't believe they're so fair fair, but 3272 02:47:17.200 --> 02:47:21.120 kids are ignorant, and they're they're blissfully ignorant. It's not 3273 02:47:21.159 --> 02:47:24.559 because they're you know, oh, they're just lower IQ. They 3274 02:47:24.559 --> 02:47:27.600 haven't experienced enough things to know what actual danger looks 3275 02:47:27.719 --> 02:47:31.479 like online just yet. That's why Roadblocks has so many 3276 02:47:32.239 --> 02:47:35.879 lawsuits against it right now, because there are rooms where 3277 02:47:36.440 --> 02:47:40.399 predators are finding these children and Roadblocks is protecting them. 3278 02:47:40.760 --> 02:47:43.280 But somehow parents are still completely cool with their kids 3279 02:47:43.280 --> 02:47:46.319 playing Roadblocks for eight hours every day whenever they get 3280 02:47:46.319 --> 02:47:47.760 home from school until it's time for bed. 3281 02:47:48.360 --> 02:47:52.600 That Also, I have personally seen some weird shit on 3282 02:47:52.719 --> 02:47:56.559 Roadblocks and everything. My buddy he has it because he 3283 02:47:56.680 --> 02:47:59.760 goes after the shit like that and sends it to 3284 02:47:59.840 --> 02:48:01.040 the police and everything. 3285 02:48:01.399 --> 02:48:02.639 Right, that's like. 3286 02:48:04.040 --> 02:48:07.520 It the ship that is on that makes my skin crawl. 3287 02:48:08.000 --> 02:48:10.399 And also there was a game just taking off of 3288 02:48:10.559 --> 02:48:15.479 Steam that they get around of it. It's it's an 3289 02:48:15.520 --> 02:48:19.479 adult game and everything, but it's drawn cute seeing all 3290 02:48:19.719 --> 02:48:22.840 the characters are quote nine thousand years old, but they're 3291 02:48:22.920 --> 02:48:27.600 they it's children. The characters are based off of actual 3292 02:48:27.680 --> 02:48:31.760 photos of children, and you can get everything that you 3293 02:48:31.840 --> 02:48:34.079 want in there to do to those children. 3294 02:48:34.280 --> 02:48:36.600 They took that off of the thing. Well, I think 3295 02:48:36.760 --> 02:48:39.600 is go figure out, put it back up, let let 3296 02:48:39.639 --> 02:48:41.440 people buy it. But if you buy they buy it, 3297 02:48:41.559 --> 02:48:43.879 you immediately go to their thing take the hard drive 3298 02:48:43.920 --> 02:48:44.840 and you put them in prison. 3299 02:48:45.799 --> 02:48:49.280 I mean, okay, fair, but there's still more predators out there. 3300 02:48:50.079 --> 02:48:54.239 And it's I don't see social media for children as 3301 02:48:54.280 --> 02:48:55.520 an inherent good thing. 3302 02:48:56.000 --> 02:48:56.840 I never have. 3303 02:48:57.000 --> 02:48:59.520 I'm not allowing my children. My son wants to start 3304 02:48:59.559 --> 02:49:03.120 a YouTube channel, and he wants to do it for gaming, right, 3305 02:49:03.200 --> 02:49:05.200 and he will never have his face on there and 3306 02:49:05.239 --> 02:49:06.959 all these things. And he asked me to show him 3307 02:49:06.959 --> 02:49:09.840 how to do these things. Straight up, I told him, like, look, 3308 02:49:10.040 --> 02:49:13.200 there's no way I'm allowing that, Like, absolutely no way. 3309 02:49:13.239 --> 02:49:14.920 He's like, oh, come on, there's all these kids that 3310 02:49:14.959 --> 02:49:16.639 are making this money doing YouTube stuff. 3311 02:49:16.680 --> 02:49:18.879 I could be one of them. I hear it. I 3312 02:49:19.000 --> 02:49:19.639 absolutely do. 3313 02:49:19.719 --> 02:49:22.639 And I love that he is trying to capitalize in 3314 02:49:22.680 --> 02:49:27.000 that way. But as a dad, there's no way I'm 3315 02:49:27.000 --> 02:49:29.639 going to allow that, at least until he's sixteen, and 3316 02:49:29.680 --> 02:49:31.799 I mean help, maybe not even then. And it's not 3317 02:49:31.840 --> 02:49:34.600 because I don't trust him. It's because I know how 3318 02:49:34.680 --> 02:49:37.600 horrible the internet can be and I'm not trying to 3319 02:49:37.680 --> 02:49:41.520 open a door for that. Again, people have a lot 3320 02:49:41.559 --> 02:49:43.559 of difference of opinions on this. I'm not trying to 3321 02:49:43.559 --> 02:49:45.520 say that parents that allow their children to do these 3322 02:49:45.559 --> 02:49:49.000 things are bad parents. I'm saying that it is such. 3323 02:49:49.360 --> 02:49:52.680 It's an open door for so much evil that these 3324 02:49:52.760 --> 02:49:57.360 kids don't need. Yeah, but but I also could understand 3325 02:49:57.360 --> 02:49:59.680 the argument to say that making it a law isn't 3326 02:49:59.680 --> 02:50:02.440 in friend on freedoms and rights. I see that too. 3327 02:50:03.479 --> 02:50:06.360 But you also remember when I was when I had 3328 02:50:06.399 --> 02:50:09.120 my my Facebook page and everything as a young and 3329 02:50:10.040 --> 02:50:13.639 there it was a jitimmy on a laptop. There was 3330 02:50:13.760 --> 02:50:17.280 no mobile, and all I did was play Farmville. Yeah 3331 02:50:17.399 --> 02:50:21.559 so I was still a kid playing kid games. 3332 02:50:22.319 --> 02:50:24.639 I get it, I get it. But yeah, so, I mean, 3333 02:50:24.799 --> 02:50:28.079 especially when it's like TikTok and shit, there's no reason 3334 02:50:28.079 --> 02:50:30.239 why these twelve year olds need to be following TikTok 3335 02:50:30.239 --> 02:50:35.360 trends or whatever doing these Instagram reels as a twelve 3336 02:50:35.440 --> 02:50:39.440 year old, Like, I'm I'm good with that being banned. Honestly, 3337 02:50:40.159 --> 02:50:40.799 I don't know. 3338 02:50:41.559 --> 02:50:45.079 And we just banned TikTok. It's owned by the CCP. 3339 02:50:45.799 --> 02:50:48.719 Yeah, well now it's owned by an American conglomerate, or 3340 02:50:48.760 --> 02:50:50.639 at least the American branch of it is owned by. 3341 02:50:51.079 --> 02:50:53.639 Was it not Wexler Lee? 3342 02:50:53.719 --> 02:50:56.920 Ellison Lee? 3343 02:50:57.000 --> 02:50:57.319 Who's that? 3344 02:50:57.799 --> 02:50:59.959 Isn't that a dude? Who does Oracle? 3345 02:51:01.440 --> 02:51:04.479 Oh wait, Rex, isn't that the guy that does. 3346 02:51:04.360 --> 02:51:07.319 The sacred I'm getting rich. That's confused. 3347 02:51:08.680 --> 02:51:12.360 All the same, the different feather of the same. 3348 02:51:12.200 --> 02:51:16.159 Bud one hundred percent. So now let's listen to this 3349 02:51:16.280 --> 02:51:20.040 news report from ABC that tells us more about the situation. 3350 02:51:20.079 --> 02:51:22.319 More than a million accounts have gone dark tonight as 3351 02:51:22.399 --> 02:51:26.639 Australia imposes a new social media band. Children under sixteen 3352 02:51:26.719 --> 02:51:29.440 will be locked out of social media platforms like Facebook 3353 02:51:29.440 --> 02:51:32.959 and Instagram. Companies that don't comply could face a thirty 3354 02:51:33.000 --> 02:51:34.639 three million dollar fine. 3355 02:51:35.120 --> 02:51:36.120 Real quick, real quick. 3356 02:51:36.440 --> 02:51:39.040 Just we're all clear on the types of social media 3357 02:51:39.079 --> 02:51:41.319 that kids under sixteen are no longer going to be 3358 02:51:41.360 --> 02:51:45.280 allowed to do. Over a million accounts in Australia just 3359 02:51:45.319 --> 02:51:52.879 went dark. TikTok, Facebook, X, YouTube, Instagram, Kick, Snapchat, Reddit. 3360 02:51:53.639 --> 02:51:54.760 Yeah no, I'm okay with. 3361 02:51:54.760 --> 02:52:00.280 That because some of those social media platforms are more 3362 02:52:00.319 --> 02:52:03.200 g rated. They're heavily monitored and all the things. Sure sure, 3363 02:52:03.559 --> 02:52:08.840 kick is not, Snapchat is not, Reddit is not X 3364 02:52:09.120 --> 02:52:12.760 is not. Well, it's monitored, but not to the level 3365 02:52:12.760 --> 02:52:15.120 that I'm talking about as far as protecting children goes. 3366 02:52:15.760 --> 02:52:19.200 Well, why YouTube specifically, because that you could have that 3367 02:52:19.719 --> 02:52:24.399 has like school like uh bye pop and educational videos 3368 02:52:24.440 --> 02:52:25.200 all throughout it. 3369 02:52:25.600 --> 02:52:27.520 They do, they do, But the problem is, whenever you 3370 02:52:27.559 --> 02:52:33.280 pass laws, it has to be blanket policy. 3371 02:52:33.360 --> 02:52:35.760 It's not fair. But that's just kind of how it goes, 3372 02:52:36.680 --> 02:52:37.000 is it. 3373 02:52:37.120 --> 02:52:39.639 I understand that and everything, but I can't help but 3374 02:52:39.760 --> 02:52:42.159 to see that as a way of them since like 3375 02:52:42.360 --> 02:52:47.280 being very Orwellian and like social outside information and everything 3376 02:52:47.360 --> 02:52:48.719 a lot like China. 3377 02:52:49.520 --> 02:52:51.959 No, I see that for sure, and YouTube is classified 3378 02:52:52.000 --> 02:52:55.920 as a social media platform. It's not just a place 3379 02:52:55.959 --> 02:53:00.239 to post videos for like uh, educational stuff. It's there's 3380 02:53:00.280 --> 02:53:02.680 people that use it as a form of social media. 3381 02:53:02.719 --> 02:53:04.520 A lot of content creators do, as a matter of fact, 3382 02:53:04.520 --> 02:53:07.639 they'll drop videos, but they are using it to also 3383 02:53:07.719 --> 02:53:10.799 make contacts with other people for the same reason why 3384 02:53:10.840 --> 02:53:12.440 we would use social media honestly. 3385 02:53:13.040 --> 02:53:15.600 But well, you can text on YouTube or something. 3386 02:53:17.079 --> 02:53:18.959 I guess through comments and shit like that. 3387 02:53:19.079 --> 02:53:22.360 Yeah, but it's it is classified technically in certain circles 3388 02:53:22.399 --> 02:53:24.879 as a social media platform. I don't know. But beside 3389 02:53:24.879 --> 02:53:27.799 the point again, I don't have a problem with YouTube inherently. 3390 02:53:28.799 --> 02:53:33.760 I don't have a problem with Facebook inherently, but or 3391 02:53:33.799 --> 02:53:38.120 even Instagram not inherently some of them. I do, like, 3392 02:53:38.159 --> 02:53:42.360 there's no reason why an eleven year old chef Snapchat 3393 02:53:42.479 --> 02:53:46.280 or kick account. I'm I will stand firmly on that. 3394 02:53:46.440 --> 02:53:48.879 Or Reddit. There's no reason why a nine year old 3395 02:53:48.879 --> 02:53:53.840 shod of access to Reddit because Reddit's got every damn 3396 02:53:53.879 --> 02:53:54.479 thing on there. 3397 02:53:54.799 --> 02:53:56.719 So I just, yeah, I understand it. 3398 02:53:57.000 --> 02:53:57.319 I do. 3399 02:53:57.399 --> 02:53:58.079 Let's keep going. 3400 02:53:59.000 --> 02:54:02.760 Instagram's pair company, Meta is pushing back, claiming it'll push 3401 02:54:02.920 --> 02:54:07.319 kids to less regulated platforms, but Australia's Prime Minister is 3402 02:54:07.360 --> 02:54:08.079 standing firm. 3403 02:54:09.360 --> 02:54:14.079 This is the die when Australian families are taking back 3404 02:54:14.440 --> 02:54:19.200 power from these big tech companies and they're asserting the 3405 02:54:19.360 --> 02:54:23.559 rot of kids to be kids and for parents to 3406 02:54:23.639 --> 02:54:25.200 have great a pace of mind. 3407 02:54:26.520 --> 02:54:28.799 A lot of other nations will be closely watching to 3408 02:54:28.840 --> 02:54:30.000 see how it plays out. 3409 02:54:30.280 --> 02:54:30.479 Here. 3410 02:54:30.520 --> 02:54:33.559 In the US, at least thirteen states, including Texas, have 3411 02:54:33.680 --> 02:54:36.959 passed laws concerning cell phones in school in the movement 3412 02:54:37.000 --> 02:54:39.840 to impose further restrictions is growing. 3413 02:54:40.200 --> 02:54:44.719 More than Yeah. Absolutely, and again that's not a fair 3414 02:54:44.760 --> 02:54:49.120 comparison to say that you're restricting cell phone use in schools. 3415 02:54:50.280 --> 02:54:52.719 That's not a one to one comparison to banning all 3416 02:54:52.840 --> 02:54:56.399 social media accounts for people under sixteen years of age 3417 02:54:56.559 --> 02:55:02.879 right off the rip that that's crazy. But again, I'm 3418 02:55:02.959 --> 02:55:05.120 just speaking on behalf of myself, and I know people 3419 02:55:05.120 --> 02:55:07.200 are going to disagree with me on this, and that's fine. 3420 02:55:07.239 --> 02:55:11.280 That's fine if I as a parent, I am so 3421 02:55:11.360 --> 02:55:14.159 in favor of this, because even if as a parent 3422 02:55:14.600 --> 02:55:17.159 I put rules in place and tell my kids what 3423 02:55:17.200 --> 02:55:18.719 they can and can't do, They're gonna do what they 3424 02:55:18.719 --> 02:55:21.280 want to do anyway when I'm not looking, right, which 3425 02:55:21.319 --> 02:55:24.000 is why at one point in time, I had to 3426 02:55:24.000 --> 02:55:25.319 take my kid's phone from him. 3427 02:55:25.639 --> 02:55:27.040 And it wasn't because he was doing something he was 3428 02:55:27.079 --> 02:55:29.879 supposed to be doing on the phone, but it's. 3429 02:55:29.399 --> 02:55:32.239 Because, like yo, just because I put all these parental 3430 02:55:32.280 --> 02:55:35.159 blocks and I have no internet access or whatever else, 3431 02:55:35.479 --> 02:55:38.120 he was still finding ways to get on YouTube. He 3432 02:55:38.200 --> 02:55:40.200 was still finding ways to listen to music that I 3433 02:55:40.239 --> 02:55:42.840 don't approve of. And that's of course I did the 3434 02:55:42.840 --> 02:55:44.159 same shit when I was a kid. 3435 02:55:44.399 --> 02:55:46.680 I get it. Growing up, I wasn't allowed to have 3436 02:55:46.719 --> 02:55:47.360 social media. 3437 02:55:48.239 --> 02:55:51.799 When I was in middle school, I made a MySpace account. 3438 02:55:52.079 --> 02:55:54.399 I never told my parents about it for obvious reasons. 3439 02:55:54.399 --> 02:55:56.639 I was not allowed to buy their rules, and I 3440 02:55:56.639 --> 02:55:58.159 had to lie about my age and say I was 3441 02:55:58.200 --> 02:56:00.040 eighteen or whatever. When I got to high school, I 3442 02:56:00.120 --> 02:56:03.120 made a Facebook a profile. Again, my parents had no idea, 3443 02:56:04.479 --> 02:56:06.399 And I'm not saying that I was doing some bad 3444 02:56:06.479 --> 02:56:09.600 things on these apps by any means, But that doesn't 3445 02:56:09.639 --> 02:56:11.879 mean that there weren't people that were out there hunting 3446 02:56:12.280 --> 02:56:16.120 young adolescents like that. And it's just yeah, I see 3447 02:56:16.159 --> 02:56:18.520 it as a very good thing. I don't like that 3448 02:56:18.559 --> 02:56:20.040 the state is the one that had to be the 3449 02:56:20.040 --> 02:56:22.520 one to pass that law. I wish parents would just 3450 02:56:22.600 --> 02:56:25.959 take more responsibility and take more ownership of their children 3451 02:56:26.079 --> 02:56:28.040 and be more active in their lives and tell them 3452 02:56:28.040 --> 02:56:30.600 that they can't do certain things, and then not just 3453 02:56:30.680 --> 02:56:33.399 tell them that. Don't give them a phone, don't give 3454 02:56:33.440 --> 02:56:37.200 them internet access. They let it be under your watchful eye. 3455 02:56:37.360 --> 02:56:41.479 Like I agree, But yeah, I hear both sides of 3456 02:56:41.520 --> 02:56:45.000 the argument, and I'm completely fine if people disagree with 3457 02:56:45.040 --> 02:56:47.239 me on that one and feel like this is an 3458 02:56:47.280 --> 02:56:50.120 infringement on freedom. There's no there's no shade, and this 3459 02:56:50.159 --> 02:56:52.120 is not something that I'd necessarily want to like fight 3460 02:56:52.200 --> 02:56:55.559 over by any means. It's just personal take. I see 3461 02:56:55.600 --> 02:56:58.959 this as an inherent good. I understand if people have 3462 02:56:59.000 --> 02:57:02.239 an opposition on that is what it is. With all 3463 02:57:02.319 --> 02:57:04.920 this being said, good members of the Retinue, I think 3464 02:57:04.920 --> 02:57:08.319 we're gonna call this episode complete. Once again, I would 3465 02:57:08.360 --> 02:57:09.920 like to tell everybody if you would like to join 3466 02:57:10.000 --> 02:57:12.000 us every Wednesday night at nine pm Central for the 3467 02:57:12.000 --> 02:57:13.680 Cajun Night Live. Then you go to the link in 3468 02:57:13.760 --> 02:57:16.600 the descriptions patreon dot com slash Cajun Night. There's only 3469 02:57:16.600 --> 02:57:19.319 one tier for entry. We're growing this thing slowly but surely. 3470 02:57:19.360 --> 02:57:21.680 Every week, y'all ought to be an information sharing group 3471 02:57:21.799 --> 02:57:24.440 meeting for lack of better words. We talk about the geopolitics, 3472 02:57:24.600 --> 02:57:26.559 we talk about some military things, we talk about some 3473 02:57:26.639 --> 02:57:28.639 science things, we talk about some religious things. From time 3474 02:57:28.680 --> 02:57:32.000 to time, this has become a very uh fond night 3475 02:57:32.159 --> 02:57:33.920 every week for me, and I believe all of the 3476 02:57:33.920 --> 02:57:37.200 members of the retinue feel the same way. Once again, everybody, 3477 02:57:37.280 --> 02:58:10.719 I am the Cajun Knight and as always, God bless
