Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly Shaw.
Speaker 2: Let's have some fun on a Monday. I have missed
Speaker 2: you so freaking much. Happy New Year. It's twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: I'm so excited for everything. The year is going to
Speaker 2: bring the ups the downs. We will ride it out together.
Speaker 2: I'm excited for tonight and tomorrow and every other day.
Speaker 1: In case you can't tell, I've been dying to get back,
Speaker 1: but I am gear. There's so much to do tonight,
Speaker 1: there's no way we're going to get through it all.
Speaker 1: Let me just give you a couple guarantees on things
Speaker 1: we're definitely going to get to. First, an hour from
Speaker 1: now is going to be Medal of Honor Monday, as
Speaker 1: it always is, we will honor a hero. We're going
Speaker 1: to open the show, and it's going to take a
Speaker 1: while talking about Venezuela. Not just the operation, of course,
Speaker 1: we're going to nerd out on that. We're going to
Speaker 1: talk about the reasons, the real reasons. What's going on globally,
Speaker 1: what's the Trump plan? What might be next? What are
Speaker 1: the potential problems that we have? So many things we're
Speaker 1: gonna get to there. Tim Walls announces he's not running
Speaker 1: for re election. What happened. We'll discuss it. That New
Speaker 1: York City's going to get worse than we thought. We're
Speaker 1: going to have to go ahead and destroy Hilton Hotels
Speaker 1: the way we destroyed bud Light. All that emails, so
Speaker 1: much more coming up tonight on the world famous Jesse
Speaker 1: Kelly's Show. Now, I've been nerding out since it happened.
Speaker 1: I would venture a guest that you have been nerding
Speaker 1: out since it happened. I woke up. I woke up,
Speaker 1: and I forget which morning it was. What was it Wednesday?
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what morning it was. I don't do details.
Speaker 1: None of that's changed. I wake up and I did
Speaker 1: the exact same thing you do when you wake up.
Speaker 1: Don't lie. I know you do. I woke up, rolled over,
Speaker 1: grab my phone. In my defense, that's where my alarm is.
Speaker 1: I grabbed my phone to turn the alarm off, and
Speaker 1: I think I had fifteen text messages from various friends.
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was going down. You didn't know
Speaker 1: it was going down. Trump got Maduro last night. Trump
Speaker 1: arrested Maduro last night. We have been what in Venezuela.
Speaker 1: So I know you already know the story, So I
Speaker 1: won't cover the story, but I do want to bring
Speaker 1: this up before we go on. We don't fully appreciate
Speaker 1: how elite our military is compared to almost pretty much
Speaker 1: every other military on the planet. And there are a
Speaker 1: lot of reasons for that, which we'll talk about in
Speaker 1: a moment, But because if you're an American, if you're
Speaker 1: an American, and I know we have people listening all
Speaker 1: over the world, but if you're an American citizen, you've
Speaker 1: probably only ever lived in America, and because of that,
Speaker 1: if that's all you've ever known, you don't appreciate the differences.
Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I never fully appreciated the
Speaker 1: differences until I joined the Marine Corps. Joined the Marine Corps,
Speaker 1: I trained with Marines, we go fight with Marines, and
Speaker 1: then there's a period of time in Iraq where there's
Speaker 1: a transition and now some European powers are coming in
Speaker 1: and they're sending in troops to do this or that,
Speaker 1: and I remember being mortified at the troops from other countries. Mortified,
Speaker 1: not just the Europeans, by the way. I remember before
Speaker 1: we went to Thailand, we were told you're going to
Speaker 1: train with the Thai Marines, and immediately I'm thinking probably
Speaker 1: the same thing. You're thinking, Wow, they're probably going to
Speaker 1: be some stud jungle fighters. They were pathetic. They couldn't
Speaker 1: even hunt their own gear, whining all the pathetic. The
Speaker 1: Spanish came in to relieve us from some compound in Iraq, Spain.
Speaker 1: I realized they're not some military juggernaut. But you're thinking,
Speaker 1: probably pretty switched on guys, at least modern pathetic. Our
Speaker 1: military is incredible. We don't think of ourselves probably as
Speaker 1: a Spartan like culture, but we have a military culture
Speaker 1: in this country, a rugged military culture that comes from
Speaker 1: our DNA, It comes from our heritage, It comes from
Speaker 1: our love of the outdoors, our love of firearms. We
Speaker 1: have a society full of men primed to join the
Speaker 1: military if they are willing. We have the resources, the
Speaker 1: financial resources to buy the best training money can buy.
Speaker 1: You got all the bulleting you want. We just have
Speaker 1: elite military personnel. Now, let's understand something about an operation
Speaker 1: of this size. You could argue, let's call it a raid.
Speaker 1: You could argue historically, this is the greatest raid that
Speaker 1: has ever been pulled off. When you consider a couple things,
Speaker 1: consider this. Venezuela knew we were there. Venezuela assumed we
Speaker 1: were coming in Venezuela is No. They're not some top
Speaker 1: tier military, but they have the assistance of you would
Speaker 1: probably say the number two and three best militaries on
Speaker 1: the planet. That would be Russia and China. We're better
Speaker 1: than Russia and China, but if you were ranking them,
Speaker 1: Russia and China would be second and third. Russia and
Speaker 1: China were not only invested there, Russia and China were
Speaker 1: sending equipment there, equipments specifically designed to stop the United
Speaker 1: States military from doing anything like it was doing anything.
Speaker 1: They knew we were coming. They had been supplied by
Speaker 1: the second and third best militaries in the world, trained
Speaker 1: by the second and third best militaries in the world
Speaker 1: to stop us from doing it.
Speaker 2: And still we flew helicopters into their capital in the
Speaker 2: middle of the night, killed all the security around their president,
Speaker 2: and jacked him and his wife out of the mansion,
Speaker 2: threw them on a ship, and shipped him back to
Speaker 2: the United States of America without losing a single man.
Speaker 1: Don't go by the way, in case you think this
Speaker 1: is all gonna be sunshine, it's not. We're going to
Speaker 1: discuss potential problems and what's going on. We're gonna get
Speaker 1: to that. I just wanted to take a moment to
Speaker 1: appreciate how elite this was. And I'm not just talking
Speaker 1: about the Delta guys on the ground. I'm play something
Speaker 1: for you've probably already heard it. This is Dan Cain.
Speaker 1: He is well thought of by the actual war fighters
Speaker 1: in our military. His nickname is Raisin Cain, and on
Speaker 1: this show, that's how he will be referred to from
Speaker 1: now on. I'm going to give Raisin Cain the floor. Now.
Speaker 1: I want you before I play him, I want you
Speaker 1: to think about this. If I gave you twenty people
Speaker 1: and I had you organize an operation, not a military operation,
Speaker 1: an operation where one guy had to walk into this
Speaker 1: office and he had to get a stapler, and the
Speaker 1: next guy had to walk into a different office and
Speaker 1: he had to get a blue pen, and the next
Speaker 1: guy had to walk into a different office and he
Speaker 1: had to get a package of printer paper. Do you
Speaker 1: think you could pull that off? How much time and
Speaker 1: training do you think it would take to make sure
Speaker 1: everybody knew their duty. It's more complicated in it than
Speaker 1: you think. I'll give you a little example. In fact,
Speaker 1: it's from my Christmas break. I didn't tell you this before, Hanks.
Speaker 1: I can't tell people when I'm traveling beforehand. We went
Speaker 1: to New York City for Christmas this year. We love
Speaker 1: New York City. We assume we're never going to go
Speaker 1: back now that Ma'm Donnie's going to destroy the place.
Speaker 1: We wanted a couple more days to go see the sites,
Speaker 1: eat some hot dogs, look at the Christmas tree, the
Speaker 1: normal thing. As part of our New York City trip,
Speaker 1: we decided to do something we'd never done before. We
Speaker 1: went to the Empire State Building. There were nine of
Speaker 1: us in our party. It was a big group. I
Speaker 1: had all the tickets on my phone. In order to
Speaker 1: get to the top of the Empire State Building, you
Speaker 1: had to go through I think there were five, but
Speaker 1: don't quote me on that, five different little turnstyle things
Speaker 1: where you had to scan the ticket. One person walks through,
Speaker 1: scan the ticket, one person walks through. I'm standing there,
Speaker 1: I scan, I'm giving orders, I scan, I'm giving orders.
Speaker 1: We screwed it up four times on the way in.
Speaker 1: Four times someone was enlisting, someone walked and walk fast enough.
Speaker 1: Someone tried to double it. Four times. That's just scanning
Speaker 1: a ticket to get in the mp higher State building.
Speaker 1: Now I want you to listen to the United States
Speaker 1: military and their operation they just pulled off. Here's Raisin Kin.
Speaker 3: This operation, known as Operation Absolute Resolve, was discreete precise,
Speaker 3: and conducted during the darkest hours of January second, and
Speaker 3: was in the culmination of months of planning and rehearsal.
Speaker 3: An extraction so precise it involved more than one hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty aircraft launching across the Western hemisphere in close coordination,
Speaker 3: all coming together in time and place to layer effects
Speaker 3: for a single purpose to get an interdiction force into
Speaker 3: downtown Caraclus while maintaining the element of tactical surprise. Let
Speaker 3: me talk a little bit about the preparation. After months
Speaker 3: of work by our intelligence teammates to find Maduro and
Speaker 3: understand how he moved, where he lived, where he tried,
Speaker 3: what he ate, what he wore, what were his pets?
Speaker 3: In early December, our force was set pending a series
Speaker 3: of aligned events. The force included F twenty two's F
Speaker 3: thirty five, F eighteen's EA eighteens, E two's B one
Speaker 3: bombers and other support aircraft, as well as numerous remotely
Speaker 3: piloted drones. As the force began to approach Caracas, the
Speaker 3: Joint Air Component began dismantling and disabling the air defense
Speaker 3: systems in Venezuela, employing weapons to ensure the safe passage
Speaker 3: of the helicopters into the target area. We arrived at
Speaker 3: Maduro's compound.
Speaker 1: He goes on for another minute. I'm going to let
Speaker 1: him go. This is amazing.
Speaker 3: At one one am Eastern Standard time or two to
Speaker 3: one am Caracas local time, and the apprehension force descended
Speaker 3: into Maduro's compound and moved with speed, precision, and discipline
Speaker 3: towards their objective and isolated the area to ensure the
Speaker 3: safety and security of the ground force while apprehending the
Speaker 3: indicted persons. On arrival into the target area, the helicopters
Speaker 3: came under fire, and they replied with that fire with
Speaker 3: overwhelming force and self defense. One of our aircraft was
Speaker 3: hit but remained fliable, and as the President said earlier today,
Speaker 3: all of our aircraft came home. Maduro and his wife,
Speaker 3: both indicted, gave up and were taken into custody by
Speaker 3: the Department of Justice, assisted by our incredible US military
Speaker 3: with professionalism and precision, which with no loss of us life.
Speaker 1: I am so nerding out right now we continue on,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about bigger picture things next, says Jesse.
Speaker 2: Kelly Show on a wonderful Monday.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I'm so excited to be here. Remember, yes,
Speaker 1: I'm back. You can email me Jesse at Jesse kellyshow
Speaker 1: dot com. Your love, your hate, your death, threats, your
Speaker 1: history suggestions which you keep sending in. I haven't decided
Speaker 1: on one yet. We'll get to all that stuff in
Speaker 1: a little bit. A couple more things really quickly on
Speaker 1: the military operation, and then we'll discuss the reasons why
Speaker 1: and the potential pitfalls and things like that. First, we're
Speaker 1: all flesh and blood, human beings. And when it comes
Speaker 1: to a military operation, what's the thing we love the most?
Speaker 1: The Delta Force guys, the Navy seals, but this was
Speaker 1: Delta Force. But the guy, the big, the big tough
Speaker 1: guys with the guns. Every dude in the back of
Speaker 1: his mind secretly kind of wants to be that guy,
Speaker 1: thinks maybe he could have been that guy. Every woman
Speaker 1: in the back of her mind has thought, I'd like
Speaker 1: to go on a date with that guy. It's human nature.
Speaker 1: It's human nature. They do all the cool stuff, they have.
Speaker 1: The cool stuff's human nature, and they deserve all the
Speaker 1: credit in the world. However, remember there are so many
Speaker 1: things that go into an operation like this, things that
Speaker 1: we never think about. Raisin Kin talked about the intelligence gathering. Remember,
Speaker 1: before any Delta Force guy gets to fast rope out
Speaker 1: of a helo under the roof of a compound, long
Speaker 1: before he gets to do that, there's another guy. There's
Speaker 1: another girl on the ground writing down when Maduro leaves
Speaker 1: for work where he likes to eat breakfasts, and that
Speaker 1: person if caught in a hostile foreign country, well, Venezuela's
Speaker 1: famous for their torture. Now you realize that, like any evil,
Speaker 1: disgusting communist regime, when they get their hands on you,
Speaker 1: not like it. Think about the bravery that takes to
Speaker 1: be sitting in the woods outside of Maduro's compound watching.
Speaker 1: Maybe you've chosen to become a CIA asset or any
Speaker 1: one of the other intelligence gathering agencies we have, and
Speaker 1: you're a Venezuelan. You've chosen to work with them. You
Speaker 1: risk everything for that. Now, let's set that aside. Let's
Speaker 1: not ignore the pilots, not just not just the fancy
Speaker 1: top gun stuff. Helicopter pilots. You know how brave it
Speaker 1: is to be in a helicopter. You ain't moving that fast.
Speaker 1: Low people firing machine guns up at you. You know
Speaker 1: you are one RPG in the tail rotor away from
Speaker 1: dying in a burning blaze on the ground at night
Speaker 1: in hostile territory. It takes a tremendous amount of guts
Speaker 1: to go do things like that. And as I said,
Speaker 1: the Delta Force guys deserve all the credit in the world.
Speaker 1: Make sure we take a moment of appreciation to realize
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people, a lot of people who
Speaker 1: risked dying to go pull something like that off, hard
Speaker 1: to plan for, hard to pull off in a very
Speaker 1: very dangerous thing, to go in at midnight in a
Speaker 1: hostile land and grab someone. It's impressive. Now, now let's
Speaker 1: have a much longer talk than all that. Now that
Speaker 1: I'm done nerding out, let's talk about the why, because
Speaker 1: you know, you're hearing a lot of things like this.
Speaker 4: But we're going to be rebuilding and we're not spending
Speaker 4: money out of the oil companies are gonna go in.
Speaker 4: They're gonna spend money we're gonna take back to the
Speaker 4: oil that frankly, we should have taken back a long
Speaker 4: time ago. A lot of money is coming out of
Speaker 4: the ground. We're gonna get reimbursed for all of that.
Speaker 4: We're gonna get reimbursed for everything that we spend.
Speaker 1: Okay, you're hearing a lot of things about it's the oil,
Speaker 1: it's the drugs, it's it's fatanyl Okay, is that true?
Speaker 1: Kind of yeah, but that's not the real reason. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about the real reason. It is the Jesse Kelly
Speaker 1: Show on a Wonderful Monday. Do not forget. If you
Speaker 1: missed any part of the show, you can download it.
Speaker 1: Iheard Spotify, iTunes, and don't worry. I'm back and I'm
Speaker 1: not going anywhere for a while. You me, We're gonna hang.
Speaker 2: For a while.
Speaker 1: Now. The why why Venezuela? What is it is it about?
Speaker 1: It's about the drugs. There's a lot of talks about drugs.
Speaker 1: It's about fed is about the oil. Lots of that
Speaker 1: talgets the oil. We need the oil Venezuela. That's so
Speaker 1: much oil. Well, there's some of that. Trump kind of
Speaker 1: gave it away a little bit when he talked about
Speaker 1: this and.
Speaker 4: The Monroe Doctrine is a big deal, but we've superseded
Speaker 4: it by a lot, by a real lot. They now
Speaker 4: call it the don Road Document. I don't know, it's
Speaker 4: uh Monroe Doctrine. We sort of forgot about it. It
Speaker 4: was very important, but we forgot about it. We don't
Speaker 4: forget about it anymore. Under our new national security strategy,
Speaker 4: American dominance in the Western Hemisphere will never be questioned again.
Speaker 4: Won't happen?
Speaker 1: Okay, let's do a little background. Shall we understand what's
Speaker 1: happening and why it's happening, and why. If you were Mexico,
Speaker 1: if you're Columbia, if your Cuba, you are probably having
Speaker 1: some sleepless nights right about now. What is the Monroe
Speaker 1: Doctrine back in the eighteen hundreds. Don't have to worry
Speaker 1: about the nerdy details. We had a president named James Monroe.
Speaker 1: That's what it's named after. Before we get to James,
Speaker 1: before we get to the Monroe Doctrine, let's go even
Speaker 1: further back than that. The founding fathers of this country
Speaker 1: all had European heritage. That's something important to understand. European heritage.
Speaker 1: They grew up, they grew up watching something. They grew
Speaker 1: up watching Europe fighting with each other all the time,
Speaker 1: the various countries of Europe always having a squabble about
Speaker 1: this or that or this territory. They're always fighting all
Speaker 1: the time. If you were to do a military history
Speaker 1: show on Europe fighting European countries fighting each other, I
Speaker 1: don't think you could fit it in in a year.
Speaker 1: It would take that long to get into the endless conflicts.
Speaker 1: And the found realized that endless wars drain the treasury.
Speaker 1: They deprive people of liberty in the end, because you
Speaker 1: always have to do something during wartime that deprives people
Speaker 1: of things. And the Founders realize that as they established
Speaker 1: this country clear across the Atlantic Ocean from Europe, as
Speaker 1: they establish this country, something that would completely recap the
Speaker 1: new country they were establishing would be getting involved in
Speaker 1: European wars, really foreign wars in general. Why are we
Speaker 1: getting involved? They're always in a fight. It would be
Speaker 1: like you that couple you know, maybe you're related to them,
Speaker 1: maybe they're neighbors. Maybe that's something that couple you know
Speaker 1: who's always having some drama, blowout fight, they're always about
Speaker 1: to get a divorce. There always is they're always that
Speaker 1: picture you trying to stick your nose in it, or
Speaker 1: maybe you do do this every single time Tom and
Speaker 1: Susie had a knockdown drag out after too much veno
Speaker 1: on a Friday night. What would that mean for you
Speaker 1: and your happiness in your life. It would be miserable,
Speaker 1: wouldn't it. The Founders had exactly that view about getting
Speaker 1: involved in foreign wars. Their view was, Hey, we will
Speaker 1: protect America at all times, we will protect our trade
Speaker 1: at all times, we will trade with virtually everyone at
Speaker 1: all times. But foreign wars are not our problem. If
Speaker 1: you are a nerdy history person kind of like me,
Speaker 1: I would invite you. I'm not going to read it
Speaker 1: here to read George Washington's farewell address. Look, you can
Speaker 1: use it on the Google machine. Look it up on
Speaker 1: the Google machine, George. It's very short. George Washington's farewell address.
Speaker 1: He lays it out that was it was not even controversial.
Speaker 1: That was the doctrine for foreign policy in this country.
Speaker 1: That brings us to James Monroe. He was president in
Speaker 1: the eighteen twenties. Again, the details don't matter. That's what
Speaker 1: the Monroe doctrine comes from. The Monroe doctrine wasn't necessarily special.
Speaker 1: It was really just Monroe reasserting what our foreign policy is. Hey,
Speaker 1: we are not getting involved in Europe. We're not involved.
Speaker 1: The only way we're going to get involved with European
Speaker 1: countries is if if they come start some things over here.
Speaker 1: Now pause, what would they be starting over here? What
Speaker 1: was Monroe talking about? Well, remember this was the colonial age.
Speaker 1: This was the era still on the planet where powerful
Speaker 1: countries would find foreign lands that had resources or locations
Speaker 1: things they wanted, and they would go conquer them. That's
Speaker 1: what colonizing is. Its conquest by other means. Really, yeah,
Speaker 1: people are going to die usually, but eventually it works
Speaker 1: out depending on the country doing the colonizing. Where you
Speaker 1: step in and and you decide, hey, your resources, it's
Speaker 1: now they're now our resources. You work for us. That's
Speaker 1: what colonizing is. This was going on all over the
Speaker 1: planet at the time, and before that, European countries, some
Speaker 1: of them hostile to our interests, were still sticking their
Speaker 1: nose in countries that were close to US, South America
Speaker 1: most definitely. The Monroe doctrine was hey, hey, hey, we're
Speaker 1: not going to get involved in your stuff over there.
Speaker 1: If you start getting involved in our stuff over here,
Speaker 1: it's going to be a problem. We're going to have
Speaker 1: a problem. The Monroe doctrine, essentially, for the one oh
Speaker 1: one version, is in our hemisphere, in our neighborhood, we
Speaker 1: will not have trouble. You want to throw used time
Speaker 1: and things like that in your front lawn across town,
Speaker 1: you're welcome to do so. Trash your area. You live
Speaker 1: across the street from me, and try that, we're gonna
Speaker 1: have a problem. Now that brings us to Russia and
Speaker 1: China and Iran if we're being honest, but won't focus
Speaker 1: on Russia and China. For the longest time, this started
Speaker 1: really with the Communists, surprise, surprise, the Soviet Union, the
Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party. They recognized that South America, really, i'll
Speaker 1: just call it Latin America. Latin America was an opportunity
Speaker 1: for them, not just an opportunity to acquire resources. Latin
Speaker 1: America presented them with an opportunity to take over governments
Speaker 1: because there's so much Spanish colonialism that took place in
Speaker 1: Latin America, and the Spanish did colonialism worse than anybody.
Speaker 1: They just sucked at it. They would just go steal
Speaker 1: all the gold and abuse everyone, and they just weren't
Speaker 1: good at it. And so you had all these disaffected,
Speaker 1: miserable people. You had all these unstable, corrupt governments. And
Speaker 1: China in the Soviet Union at the time, recognized this
Speaker 1: is an opportunity for us to not just take power
Speaker 1: take resources in these places. This is an opportunity for
Speaker 1: us to essentially set up shop, set up a fortress,
Speaker 1: if you will, right next to our number one enemy,
Speaker 1: the United States of America. They always hated America. They
Speaker 1: always wanted to take down America. And if you're going
Speaker 1: to invade, what do you have to do first? You'll
Speaker 1: have to move next door. And they have spent decades
Speaker 1: moving in to Latin America, Venezuela, especially Venezuela's more recent,
Speaker 1: but Venezuela is just the best example. It's not just
Speaker 1: the the fentanyl, the oil. The truth is Russia and
Speaker 1: China and Iron. They realize it's extremely beneficial to have
Speaker 1: a nice little setup just south of America, just in
Speaker 1: case we need such a thing someday. And of course
Speaker 1: the oil does matter. I don't want to be dismissive
Speaker 1: of that, and it does matter that they're poisoning America
Speaker 1: on purpose, with the help of China with endless drugs.
Speaker 1: So what happened? What are we doing? Well? Things are
Speaker 1: changing rapidly on the planet because of the Trump administration.
Speaker 1: We'll continue on this next It is the Jesse Kelly
Speaker 1: Show on a Magnificent Monday, only ten minutes away from
Speaker 1: Metal of Honor Monday, which I love and I know
Speaker 1: you love, where we will honor a hero. Do not forget.
Speaker 1: You can send us your love, your hate, your death threats,
Speaker 1: whatever you would like. Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
Speaker 1: I will get to those at some point in time.
Speaker 1: I want to finish chopping away at this. So we
Speaker 1: have decided, the Trump administration has decided correctly that we
Speaker 1: are going to start taking back control of our hemisphere,
Speaker 1: our neighborhood. Why why is Donald Trump talking about things
Speaker 1: like this is ready to fall?
Speaker 5: Yes, Cubet looks like it's ready to fall.
Speaker 4: I don't know how they if they.
Speaker 5: Can hold up. By the way, you have to do
Speaker 5: something with Mexico. Mexico has to get there pack together
Speaker 5: because they're pouring through Mexico and we're gonna have to
Speaker 5: do something. We love Mexico to do it. They're capable
Speaker 5: of doing it, but unfortunately the cartels are very strong
Speaker 5: in Mexico.
Speaker 1: Simple as a president.
Speaker 4: So Columbian President Gustavo Petro, a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 4: you said he's got to watch it, and today he
Speaker 4: said he's not concerned about anything.
Speaker 3: Happening to him in the aftermath of this operation.
Speaker 1: So just what your messages.
Speaker 4: He has cocaine mills, he is a factory is where
Speaker 4: he makes cocaine. And yeah, I think I stick by
Speaker 4: my first statement. He's making cocaine, they're sending it into
Speaker 4: the United States. So he does have to watch his.
Speaker 1: Oooh, look, that's not the first time he's mentioned Colombia.
Speaker 1: It's been on his lips a lot late.
Speaker 5: Columbia is very sick to run by a sick man
Speaker 5: who like's making cocaine and selling it to the United States.
Speaker 1: But it's not about the cocaine. Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico, Cuba.
Speaker 1: These are the fortresses Russia and China have set up
Speaker 1: in the Western Hemisphere that allow them to do things
Speaker 1: in our neighborhood they should not be allowed to do.
Speaker 1: If you're looking to cast blame. There's plenty of it
Speaker 1: to go around Democrats and Republicans. While the United States
Speaker 1: of America's forum and military has been bouncing all over
Speaker 1: Africa in every Middle Eastern dump for the past few decades,
Speaker 1: our mortal enemies have moved next door. And you can't
Speaker 1: have that, and we won't have that. I think that
Speaker 1: Maduro is not even close to being the last leader
Speaker 1: who's going to be toppled. Then Q is going down, Well,
Speaker 1: they're leadership. I think Colombia is going down now. Mexico
Speaker 1: is a different nut crack. Let me explain Cuba, all right,
Speaker 1: you have communist leadership there, you have a people sick
Speaker 1: of it, they hate them. That's that's prime for US.
Speaker 1: Colombia similar that's prime for us in Mexico. In Mexico,
Speaker 1: there's a city situation that we have talked about before.
Speaker 1: When Donald Trump talked about declaring war on the cartels,
Speaker 1: wiping the cartels off of the planet. Because half of Mexico,
Speaker 1: roughly half the states in Mexico are cartel rum they
Speaker 1: are narco states. It makes it more difficult. What does
Speaker 1: that mean? A narco state? When normal people think about cartels,
Speaker 1: they think about a couple of Mexican dudes hiding out
Speaker 1: in the jungle processing cocaine and shooting people in the head. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's very accurate. But do you think about them handing
Speaker 1: out turkeys at Christmas time? Because they do that. Let
Speaker 1: me ask you this. Do you think about the cartel
Speaker 1: being the healthcare provider for you and your family? Oh? Man,
Speaker 1: little Billy has stretched strep throat. Come on in, we'll
Speaker 1: get him taken care of. Yes, this hospital is run
Speaker 1: by the cartel. Oh, you're young and in love. Isn't
Speaker 1: that precious? You're gonna get married? Great, come get married
Speaker 1: at the church the cartel built. The priest who marries
Speaker 1: you will be cartel connected. Got potholes in your road,
Speaker 1: let's pave it over. Who's gonna do it? The cartel
Speaker 1: they are the government in so many parts of Mexico.
Speaker 1: It's not just one compound, it's not just one cocaine plant.
Speaker 1: It's it's in the bones. If you will, it's in
Speaker 1: the bones. That's a completely different story. But I'd be
Speaker 1: worried abo our Mexico.
Speaker 5: It's about peace on earth house. I gotta have pieces
Speaker 5: are hemisphere. The Monroe Doctrine was very important when it
Speaker 5: was done, and are the presidents A lot of them
Speaker 5: they lost sight of it. I didn't. I didn't lose it,
Speaker 5: but it really is. It's peace center.
Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna touch on one more thing. Then we're
Speaker 1: gonna do mail of honor Monday, and then we will
Speaker 1: wrap this up next hour talking about some potential problems
Speaker 1: and I'll get the emails and Tim Wall's resigning and
Speaker 1: everything else. But one more thing. When the communists took
Speaker 1: over Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, when they took over Venezuela, they
Speaker 1: seize assets that belonged to the United States of America.
Speaker 1: There oil assets. Trump talked about this.
Speaker 4: But we're going to be rebuilding and we're not spending
Speaker 4: money out The oil companies are gonna go in, They're
Speaker 4: gonna spend money. We're going to take back the oil that, frankly,
Speaker 4: we should have taken back a long time ago. A
Speaker 4: lot of money is coming out of the ground. We're
Speaker 4: gonna get reimbursed for all of that. We're going to
Speaker 4: get reimbursed for everything that we spend.
Speaker 1: You know what problem I have. Here's a problem I
Speaker 1: Haveezuela has a communist revolution and Hugo Chavez gets elected. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, that sucks. Not ideal, I got it. They
Speaker 1: then start seizing assets that belong to American companies. If
Speaker 1: we're not going to go take them back immediately, why
Speaker 1: didn't we blow them all up? You can't allow This
Speaker 1: is about sending a message. This is why I love
Speaker 1: what we did. I think you cannot allow as a nation,
Speaker 1: as a powerful nation, you can't allow anyone to take
Speaker 1: your stuff because doing that sends a message to the
Speaker 1: rest of the world that someone can just take your stuff.
Speaker 1: In the future, if we lose assets in a foreign
Speaker 1: land and some scumbag takes it over, can we please
Speaker 1: drop a gigantic bomb on it on the way out
Speaker 1: the door. You don't get to see steal our stuff.
Speaker 1: That doesn't happen. That aside. Let's do Middle of Honor Monday.
Speaker 1: Then we'll talk potential problems. Then we'll get to emails
Speaker 1: and tim walls and so much more. Hang on,
