Biden Holds ISRAEL & USA Tax Payers Hostage Over Ukraine Funding! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:00
Speaker 1: President Joe Biden addressed the nation on what was supposed
0:05
Speaker 1: to be last night a conversation about Israel. Somehow it
0:14
Speaker 1: turned into a conversation about Ukraine, and the President of
0:18
Speaker 1: the United States of America tried to Jedi mind, trick
0:22
Speaker 1: you into believing that you must support the war in Ukraine,
0:27
Speaker 1: and if you don't, you somehow do not support the
0:32
Speaker 1: people in Israel. I'm not joking. You may not have
0:37
Speaker 1: watched this last night, and I'm going to give you
0:39
Speaker 1: some highlights, but I want to go over some of
0:42
Speaker 1: the big takeaways. What you had from the President is
0:46
Speaker 1: you had a speech that was filled with rhetoric that
0:51
Speaker 1: dealt with the issue of Ukraine and did not deal
0:54
Speaker 1: with what's happening in Israel, where there's a war going
0:58
Speaker 1: on in the West Bank now and Joe Biden giving
1:03
Speaker 1: a rare and this is the part that's most troubling
1:06
Speaker 1: to me, a rare oval office address that began with
1:11
Speaker 1: a clear condemnation of Hamaster, and that's good. I'm glad
1:16
Speaker 1: that happened. Then he quickly shifted the focus to the
1:22
Speaker 1: political narrative, and this narrative that you have to stand
1:27
Speaker 1: with the President of the United States of America, and
1:30
Speaker 1: you have to stand with him on the issue of hostages,
1:33
Speaker 1: and you have to stand with him with the issue
1:35
Speaker 1: of Ukraine, because they're somehow all interconnected and intertwined. We
1:40
Speaker 1: had a president that was sitting there talking about, for example,
1:43
Speaker 1: the American hostages, and he said, yes, we have to
1:47
Speaker 1: come together, and we've got to do everything we can
1:49
Speaker 1: to bring your loved ones home. That's how he described it.
1:52
Speaker 1: Here's the President in his own words.
1:54
Speaker 2: Oval Office in the President of the United States, Joe
1:57
Speaker 2: budb my fellow Americans, facing an inflection point in history,
2:02
Speaker 2: one of those moments where the decisions we make today
2:05
Speaker 2: you're going to determine the future for decades to come.
2:09
Speaker 2: That's what I like to talk with you about tonight,
2:12
Speaker 2: not earlier. This morning. I returned from Israel. They tell
2:15
Speaker 2: me I'm the first American president to travel there during
2:17
Speaker 2: the war. I met with the Prime Minister and members
2:20
Speaker 2: of his cabinet, and most movingly, I met with Israelis
2:23
Speaker 2: who had personally lived through horrific horror or the attack
2:27
Speaker 2: by a maas on the seventh of October. More than
2:30
Speaker 2: one three hundred people slaughtered in Israel, including at least
2:35
Speaker 2: thirty two American citizens, scores of innocence, from infants to
2:39
Speaker 2: the elderly grandparents. Israelis Americans taken hostage. As I told
2:45
Speaker 2: the families of Americans being held captive by AMAS, We're
2:48
Speaker 2: pursuing every avenue to bring the loved ones home. As president,
2:52
Speaker 2: there is no higher priority for me than the safety
2:55
Speaker 2: of Americans. Sell hostage. The terrorist group of maas on
2:59
Speaker 2: least pure of evil in the world. But sadly, the
3:03
Speaker 2: Jewish people know, perhaps better than anyone, that there's no
3:06
Speaker 2: limit to the depravity of people when they want to
3:09
Speaker 2: onflict pain on others. In Israel, I saw people who
3:13
Speaker 2: are strong, determined, resilient, and also angry and shock and
3:17
Speaker 2: in deep, deep pain. I also spoke with President Boss
3:22
Speaker 2: the Palestinian Authority and reiterated through the United States.
3:27
Speaker 1: You hear him and the way he started, in the
3:30
Speaker 1: tone that he started was great. It really was. I
3:33
Speaker 1: was glad to see a president say that. So the
3:36
Speaker 1: question then becomes, well, then why did his speech turn
3:39
Speaker 1: into a speech about having funding for Israel and Ukraine.
3:43
Speaker 1: At the same time, he also referred to that as
3:47
Speaker 1: an investment, an investment, Why am i investing in Ukraine.
3:53
Speaker 1: Take a listen, and this is less war.
3:54
Speaker 2: It wasn't connected. It benefits the people wh would benefit
3:58
Speaker 2: the people in the Middle East and were us. American
4:01
Speaker 2: leadership is what holds the world together. American alliance is
4:05
Speaker 2: what keep us America safe. American values what make us
4:10
Speaker 2: a partner the other nations want to work with to
4:13
Speaker 2: put all that at risk. If we walk away from Ukraine,
4:16
Speaker 2: we turn our backs on Israel. It's just not worth it.
4:20
Speaker 2: That's why tomorrow I'm going to send to Congress an
4:23
Speaker 2: urgent budget quest to fund America's national security needs. To
4:27
Speaker 2: support our critical partners, including Israel and Ukraine. Is a
4:32
Speaker 2: smart investment that's going to pay dividends for American security
4:35
Speaker 2: for generations. Help us keep American troops out of harm's way,
4:40
Speaker 2: help us build a world that is safer, more peaceful,
4:43
Speaker 2: more prosperous for our children and grandchildren. In Israel, we
4:48
Speaker 2: must make sure that they have what they need to
4:50
Speaker 2: protect their people today and always. The security package I'm
4:54
Speaker 2: sending to Congress and asking Congress to do is an
4:57
Speaker 2: unprecedented commitment to Israel security that will sharpen Israel's qualitative
5:04
Speaker 2: military edge, which We've committed to the qualitative military edge.
5:09
Speaker 2: We're going to make sure Iron Dome continues to guard
5:12
Speaker 2: the guys over Israel. We're going to make sure other
5:15
Speaker 2: hostile actors in the region know.
5:17
Speaker 1: That Israel let me just hit pause there he goes
5:22
Speaker 1: back into Israel. And the part that really concerns me
5:27
Speaker 1: is that we have a president it's America now that's
5:29
Speaker 1: obsessed with sending billions to Ukraine and knows that it's
5:35
Speaker 1: or at least his team knows. Hey, it's wavering right.
5:38
Speaker 1: The American people are not all about this, support Ukraine
5:41
Speaker 1: and just blow our money in Ukraine. Aspect, that part
5:46
Speaker 1: is now clear. And so now the President's like, Okay,
5:50
Speaker 1: I have an opportunity here. I know the American people
5:53
Speaker 1: support Israel, so let me tie the funding to Israel
5:58
Speaker 1: and then I get the unlimited check that I can
6:01
Speaker 1: then ship over to Ukraine. These issues should be separated.
6:07
Speaker 1: They should not be voted on at the same exact
6:10
Speaker 1: time and the same exact funding bill. They should be separate.
6:14
Speaker 1: You should be able to pass Ukraine funding on its
6:16
Speaker 1: own merit and funding for Israel on its own. Combining
6:22
Speaker 1: the two together means you're taking one foreign policy issue
6:27
Speaker 1: that has nothing to do with the other. And to
6:29
Speaker 1: be clear, what happened with Israel has nothing to do
6:33
Speaker 1: with what is happening in Ukraine. And yet the President
6:36
Speaker 1: took this Oval Office address Thursday night to begin to
6:40
Speaker 1: directly connect the two so that he can get what
6:43
Speaker 1: he wants. This address was not about Israel last night.
6:49
Speaker 1: The address was actually about Ukraine, and that should concern
6:54
Speaker 1: every American. Why are you doing this? Mister President in
7:00
Speaker 1: the United States of America should have been able to
7:03
Speaker 1: go on TV and should have been able to say
7:08
Speaker 1: to the American people first and foremost, going to do
7:13
Speaker 1: whatever it takes with Israel to protect and defend Israel
7:16
Speaker 1: against these butchers, these jihadis. Okay, that is something that
7:24
Speaker 1: should have been real simple. President did not do that.
7:28
Speaker 1: What he said was is we must continue to fund
7:33
Speaker 1: Israel and Ukraine. He tried to connect Israel and Ukraine
7:40
Speaker 1: in orders to suggest and this is incredibly insulting to
7:44
Speaker 1: us because look, we're the taxpayers. Okay, you go to work,
7:48
Speaker 1: you pay your taxes. He's spending your money. It is
7:52
Speaker 1: incredibly insulting to not only my intelligence. And this has
7:55
Speaker 1: nothing to do with the Republican or Democrat. Okay, this
7:58
Speaker 1: has to do with honesty and transparency. It is incredibly
8:03
Speaker 1: insulting to me to suggest that, as an American that
8:07
Speaker 1: if and only if I support Israel's war for its
8:11
Speaker 1: own survival, that then I must support resources being sent
8:17
Speaker 1: to Ukraine. The idea that my unwavering support for Israel
8:22
Speaker 1: means that therefore I must have unwavering support for the
8:26
Speaker 1: war in Ukraine is also a lie. My tax dollars
8:31
Speaker 1: do not have to go to Ukraine to fund Israel.
8:35
Speaker 1: They are separate issues. This is like going to buy
8:39
Speaker 1: a house and you get there and they go, oh, well,
8:43
Speaker 1: you know, if you're going to buy this house, you
8:44
Speaker 1: also have to buy all the furniture. No I don't.
8:48
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Oh, by the way, if you buy this house,
8:50
Speaker 1: you also have to inherit all of the bills that
8:54
Speaker 1: come with this house. You can't shot for your own internet,
8:56
Speaker 1: you can't shot for your own you know, service to
8:59
Speaker 1: cover the house. When it comes to the alarm system,
9:03
Speaker 1: you've got to cover the contracts that we have on
9:06
Speaker 1: home maintenance and lawn maintenance. No, no, I don't. That's
9:10
Speaker 1: not how this works. Well, no, no, you do. Oh and
9:13
Speaker 1: by the way, you have to buy the cars and
9:15
Speaker 1: inherit the car notes. The two cars they're in the driveway.
9:18
Speaker 1: I have my own cars. I don't have to do it. No, no, no,
9:20
Speaker 1: you do if you buy this house. You didn't know that.
9:22
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's all everything. They're not the same thing.
9:25
Speaker 1: And I wish I had a better analogy than that.
9:27
Speaker 1: But that's an example of how absurd this is. Imagine
9:32
Speaker 1: going to closing for a house and at the last
9:35
Speaker 1: minute they're like, by the way, you're not a real
9:38
Speaker 1: homeowner unless you do all these same things. At the
9:40
Speaker 1: exact same time, You're like, no, I'm just buying the house.
9:44
Speaker 1: I'm not buying their furniture. I'm not buying on their debt.
9:46
Speaker 1: I'm not buying their car notes. I'm not buying all
9:49
Speaker 1: all of their maintenance and their lawn care and their
9:51
Speaker 1: pool service and everything else. I'm not doing it. I'm
9:53
Speaker 1: gonna do that. I don't have to do that. That's
9:55
Speaker 1: not what I'm doing here. I'm just here to buy
9:57
Speaker 1: the house. They're like, no, no, no, you don't understand. You
9:58
Speaker 1: have to do both. If you don't, if you don't
10:00
Speaker 1: do this, you don't do the other. They're one and
10:02
Speaker 1: the same. No, they're not. Imagine if you went to
10:05
Speaker 1: buy a house, maybe it's a better example, and they say, oh,
10:09
Speaker 1: by the way, the same people that own this house
10:11
Speaker 1: have a lake house. It's four hours away. When you
10:15
Speaker 1: close on this house, you got to buy the lake
10:17
Speaker 1: house too. No, I don't. They're not the same thing. No, no, no,
10:22
Speaker 1: that property in the lake house is basically this house,
10:24
Speaker 1: and so you need to You're gonna have to buy
10:26
Speaker 1: both of them at the exact same time. So go
10:29
Speaker 1: ahead and spend more of your money to buy it
10:31
Speaker 1: something else, as it's totally unrelated to this property. You
10:34
Speaker 1: would walk from the table. Well, that is exactly what
10:37
Speaker 1: the President of the United States of America has just done.
10:40
Speaker 1: He tried to use the horrific tragedy and this terarist
10:44
Speaker 1: attack in Israel to then force you into submission so
10:47
Speaker 1: that you, as an American, will be forced to support
10:50
Speaker 1: limitless taxpayer resources being sent to Ukraine, not to Israel,
10:55
Speaker 1: but to Ukraine. And then what happens that money, That
10:59
Speaker 1: money's mane making a bunch of pit stops and bank
11:01
Speaker 1: accounts of US defense contractors and other shady bad actors
11:06
Speaker 1: around the world. President of the United States of America
11:11
Speaker 1: went on TV and is now trying to hold you
11:13
Speaker 1: hostage with if you support Israel, you have to then
11:17
Speaker 1: support my project, which is Ukraine. He ended up saying
11:20
Speaker 1: nothing newsworthy about Israel or Hamash, Yet he received massive amounts.
11:26
Speaker 1: We received massive amounts of propaganda about Ukraine funding. They're
11:32
Speaker 1: using what happened in Israel as an opportunity to keep
11:37
Speaker 1: funding a war with no end in sight that we
11:40
Speaker 1: shouldn't be involved in in Ukraine from the Oval Office,
11:44
Speaker 1: no less, he's using anti Semitism. He's using which also
11:51
Speaker 1: makes me very angry, the American hostages to his advantage.
11:56
Speaker 1: Now he's saying this is an opportunity. Hey, I'm all
11:59
Speaker 1: about these American hostages out, and I know you are too. Right,
12:03
Speaker 1: that's where the President says, So if you want to
12:05
Speaker 1: help us, do that. Tell Congress to pass the spending
12:09
Speaker 1: that deals with Ukraine that has nothing to do with
12:12
Speaker 1: American hostages. And if you don't, well then it's your fault.
12:15
Speaker 1: There's blood on your hands that we didn't get the
12:17
Speaker 1: hostages out. Now, look, we all know that Joe Biden's
12:20
Speaker 1: a little stupid. We know that Joe Biden has clearly
12:24
Speaker 1: got a major cognitive decline. For the people that wrote
12:27
Speaker 1: that speech. They know exactly what they're doing. The people
12:33
Speaker 1: that wrote that speech knew that they had a moment
12:39
Speaker 1: here where they may be able to get two things
12:42
Speaker 1: they desperately want. Two things they desperately want at the
12:48
Speaker 1: same time. They want a big slush fund of unlimited funding,
12:54
Speaker 1: and they want to have some of it keywords, some
12:56
Speaker 1: of it go to Israel to justify the funding in
13:01
Speaker 1: your mind, while really taking the bulk of it and
13:03
Speaker 1: giving it to defense contractors and lobbyists and shady individuals
13:08
Speaker 1: that are involved in Ukraine. And the amount of money
13:10
Speaker 1: that's going to Ukraine oligarchs is unbelievable, The amount of
13:14
Speaker 1: money that's not making it to the battlefield, the amount
13:17
Speaker 1: of money that is disappearing into these coffers. You know,
13:21
Speaker 1: we're sending the money over there. You may not realize
13:23
Speaker 1: how simple this has become. Now. I was talking literally
13:27
Speaker 1: last night during this speech with someone that does lobbing
13:31
Speaker 1: in the defense contracting world. And I have a lot
13:34
Speaker 1: of respect for this person because he's honest about his job.
13:37
Speaker 1: His job is to get defense contracts. And he said
13:40
Speaker 1: to me he goes, you know, he said, you know
13:42
Speaker 1: what's amazing about this funding. We send a billion dollars
13:46
Speaker 1: over to Ukraine. They then start taking like a commission
13:50
Speaker 1: off that billion that goes to the Rusian oligarchs. Then
13:53
Speaker 1: the money is immediately coming right back to America, and
13:56
Speaker 1: then it's going to buy things from from defense tractors,
14:01
Speaker 1: you know, these companies, and then that's being shipped back
14:04
Speaker 1: after there's been a markup back to Ukraine. So all
14:08
Speaker 1: we're doing is having the money go from the United
14:12
Speaker 1: States taxpayers bank account. Actually we're borrowing the money. Then
14:16
Speaker 1: it goes in our bank account. Then we're seeing it
14:17
Speaker 1: to the banks in Ukraine. Then that money is getting
14:20
Speaker 1: shuffled around, people are taking their cuts, and it's coming
14:23
Speaker 1: back to American contractors who are then using that money
14:27
Speaker 1: that's been reduced down by twenty thirty, forty fifty, sixty percent,
14:31
Speaker 1: and then we're buying weapons at a higher price than
14:33
Speaker 1: what America could buy those weapons for directly, do you
14:36
Speaker 1: understand that this is nothing more than a money laundering scheme.
14:41
Speaker 1: We're not helping Ukraine. We're helping people in Ukraine get rich,
14:46
Speaker 1: and American defense contractors and lobbyists are getting rich at
14:49
Speaker 1: the same time, and that's why you have a president
14:53
Speaker 1: that is trying to tell you that Ukraine and Israel
14:55
Speaker 1: are the same when Ukraine and Israel are not the same,
14:58
Speaker 1: and they have nothing to do to one another. I'll
15:00
Speaker 1: say it again, they have nothing to do with one another.
15:05
Speaker 1: All right. Let me tell you real quick about an
15:06
Speaker 1: amazing company called Patriot Mobile. For ten years, they have
15:10
Speaker 1: been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. And when I
15:15
Speaker 1: say only trust me, they're the only one. Glenn and

Speaker 1: to two Patriot. Let me also just give you reasons
16:36
Speaker 1: why Israel in Ukraine are not the same thing, so
16:40
Speaker 1: that you understand much you're being screwed by this administration
16:45
Speaker 1: financially me. All of our tax dollars, billions of dollars
16:48
Speaker 1: are going every day to Ukraine, and it's because you're
16:54
Speaker 1: we got to hate it. Write Russia and Russia's evil
16:56
Speaker 1: and Putin's evil, and what you need to understand, they're
17:01
Speaker 1: robbing us. We have no accounting for this money. Zelensky's
17:06
Speaker 1: getting rich. The people around Zeroinski are getting rich. The
17:11
Speaker 1: oligarchs of Ukraine are and Warsaw and Foresaw with their
17:15
Speaker 1: kids in the schools in Warsaw, and the amount of
17:19
Speaker 1: money that they are receiving into their bank accounts is
17:23
Speaker 1: financial crimes at the highest level. Okay, this is financial crimes.
17:28
Speaker 1: We have no accounting for the money we're sending over
17:30
Speaker 1: there right now, and everybody's getting paid. It's well documented
17:37
Speaker 1: and everybody knows what's happening. And yet this president is
17:39
Speaker 1: still obsessed with sending away to the Ukraine. Now, I
17:41
Speaker 1: don't know what the obsession is outside of he's probably
17:45
Speaker 1: compromised in Ukraine because of his son in Barisma and
17:47
Speaker 1: getting the guy fired in Ukraine. That and it may
17:51
Speaker 1: not even be just that. It could just be that
17:55
Speaker 1: the lobbyists and the defense contractors are getting so rich
18:00
Speaker 1: off of every dollar twenty cents in the dollar, thirty
18:03
Speaker 1: cents a dollar, forty cents in the dollar. They're going
18:05
Speaker 1: back in the pockets of the defense contractors and the
18:09
Speaker 1: lobbyists that they're saying, I need this war to stay
18:11
Speaker 1: going in Ukraine. Now, Israel is not Ukraine. I shouldn't
18:21
Speaker 1: have to say that. But after the President speached the
18:24
Speaker 1: nation last night. Apparently I'm gonna have to say this
18:26
Speaker 1: over and over again. Israel is not Ukraine. Israel is
18:32
Speaker 1: a much more important and much closer ally than Ukraine.
18:40
Speaker 1: It is a democracy unlike Ukraine and has been for
18:44
Speaker 1: far longer than Ukraine claims to be a democracy. You
18:49
Speaker 1: think things are shady in Russia, You've seen nothing until
18:53
Speaker 1: you look at Ukraine. And Ukraine is not the democracy
18:55
Speaker 1: that they even claim that it is. We have incredible
19:02
Speaker 1: amounts of intel, by the way, that comes from our
19:05
Speaker 1: cooperation with Israel that keeps US safe and innocent Americans
19:11
Speaker 1: and others safe around the world. The intelligence gathering that
19:15
Speaker 1: Israel does that they share with US and vice versa
19:18
Speaker 1: is so important. We don't have that with Ukraine. Israel
19:24
Speaker 1: helps us with counter terrorism operations and intel that keep
19:28
Speaker 1: people alive, that keep people safe, that fight terrorism around
19:33
Speaker 1: the world. Israel needs more money than Ukraine does because
19:40
Speaker 1: of where they are and because of what's happening to them,
19:43
Speaker 1: and because of the defense mechanisms that they must have
19:46
Speaker 1: for their survival. I'm talking about the Iron Dome. They
19:51
Speaker 1: help keep American troops safe. That's something you can't say
19:55
Speaker 1: about what's going on in Ukraine. Israel, by the way,
20:02
Speaker 1: has taken heat because of their allegiance and alliance with America,
20:07
Speaker 1: because they're such a good ally. They have taken hints,
20:11
Speaker 1: they have lost lives, They have literally taken attacks scud
20:16
Speaker 1: missiles coming into Israel because they allowed US Okay to
20:22
Speaker 1: use their area and airspace for attacks during the Gulf War.
20:27
Speaker 1: Remember that the US needed to keep Arab allies in
20:32
Speaker 1: its wartime coalition. Remember that. And millions of Americans, Christians,
20:37
Speaker 1: and Jews love Israel. It is in our best interests
20:43
Speaker 1: that there is at least one living and breathing democracy
20:48
Speaker 1: in the Middle East, and that is Israel. That is
20:51
Speaker 1: completely different than our relationship with Ukraine. Israel has been
20:57
Speaker 1: an unbelievable steward by the way of our tax dours.
21:03
Speaker 1: You look at the Holy Land, it is something worth
21:06
Speaker 1: worth defending and heading for that is different than Ukraine.
21:11
Speaker 1: It is the only safe place in the world where
21:14
Speaker 1: Jews can live. There is one place in the world,
21:20
Speaker 1: one place in the world that the Jewish people can
21:23
Speaker 1: call home. There are countless Muslim countries in the world
21:27
Speaker 1: where Muslims can call home. For example, there are countless
21:30
Speaker 1: other countries of other faiths. There's only one place where
21:34
Speaker 1: Jews can say that they truly belong and that is Israel. Yes,
21:39
Speaker 1: there they're free and able to do things in other countries.
21:44
Speaker 1: Yes they're welcomed in America. But I'm talking about if
21:47
Speaker 1: you are Jewish, Israel is your home. That's all so
21:52
Speaker 1: different than Ukraine. We are fortunate to have an ally
21:56
Speaker 1: in the Middle East that's willing to go to war
21:58
Speaker 1: with us, to defend us, to protect us, and to
22:02
Speaker 1: support our interest in the Middle East. That also has
22:07
Speaker 1: nothing to do with Ukraine. Everything I just said should
22:12
Speaker 1: not have the word Ukraine in it. I would also
22:16
Speaker 1: say this, you think Russia is corrupt, You've seen nothing
22:20
Speaker 1: until you see Ukraine. Ukraine is one of the most
22:23
Speaker 1: corrupt countries in the world, and Israel, by the way,
22:26
Speaker 1: is not. They're not the same. I shouldn't have to
22:30
Speaker 1: sit here the day after the president announces to the
22:33
Speaker 1: world that we needs all this money and tell you
22:36
Speaker 1: that Israel and Ukraine are not the same. But he
22:38
Speaker 1: tied them together to try to get corrupt. Dollars going
22:42
Speaker 1: to Ukraine or dollars going to Ukraine that are then
22:45
Speaker 1: corrupted is a better way of putting it. This is
22:49
Speaker 1: all about following the money. It just is this idea
22:55
Speaker 1: that to help Israel stave off extinction is conditional on
23:02
Speaker 1: sending another bag of goodies to Ukraine is a Ponzi scheme.
23:10
Speaker 1: It's offensive. As a taxpayer, you should be offended by this.
23:16
Speaker 1: We shouldn't be tying anything to Israel funding in this
23:21
Speaker 1: aid package. An aid package to Israel should not have
23:25
Speaker 1: the word Ukraine in it. There are other issues that
23:29
Speaker 1: are more urgent than what's going on in Ukraine, and
23:33
Speaker 1: it is Israel. So why did we just have a
23:37
Speaker 1: massive Oval office speech in prime time about a issue
23:41
Speaker 1: that is not our top priority right now Ukraine. I'll
23:44
Speaker 1: tell you why. It's because the president top priority cooking
23:48
Speaker 1: Ukraine up with money. This is why the President of
23:51
Speaker 1: the United States of America says, We've got to hold
23:53
Speaker 1: the world together. Right. Funding Israel in Ukraine is a
23:57
Speaker 1: smart investment. I'm not My tax dollars are not an
24:01
Speaker 1: investment means I get an ROI right, I get a return.
24:06
Speaker 1: He wants one hundred and five billion requests for war aid,
24:09
Speaker 1: sixty billion for arming Ukraine, fourteen billion for military and
24:13
Speaker 1: security assistants to Israel, sixty billion Ukraine and only fourteen
24:17
Speaker 1: billion to military and security assists in Israel. Ten billion
24:21
Speaker 1: for humanitarian assistants twenty four or fourteen billion for US
24:26
Speaker 1: border security. Just fourteen billion for US board security. He
24:29
Speaker 1: throws that in there too, trying to get you to
24:31
Speaker 1: bite on this. Hey'm and it's been fourteen but I need,
24:35
Speaker 1: you know, sixty billion for Ukraine. You look at this
24:41
Speaker 1: aid package. Way more money going to Ukraine than's going
24:47
Speaker 1: to Israel. Way more money going to Ukraine than is
24:52
Speaker 1: going for our border security. Hey, here's a billion for
24:56
Speaker 1: bord security. I need sixty billion for Ukraine. What world
24:59
Speaker 1: is he living in? But remember, he's going to tell
25:01
Speaker 1: you this is all about a smart investment. It's not.
25:06
Speaker 2: Let's warrant was connected. It benefits the people, would benefit
25:10
Speaker 2: the people in the Middle East, and would benefit US.
25:13
Speaker 2: American leadership is what holds the world together. American alliance
25:18
Speaker 2: is what keep US America safe. American values what make
25:22
Speaker 2: us a partner the other nations want to work with.
25:25
Speaker 2: Put all that at risk if we walk away from Ukraine,
25:29
Speaker 2: we turn our backs on Israel.
25:31
Speaker 1: It's just not worth it.
25:33
Speaker 2: That's why tomorrow I'm going to send to Congress an
25:35
Speaker 2: urgent budget request to fund America's national security needs to
25:40
Speaker 2: support our critical partners, including Israel and Ukraine.
25:44
Speaker 1: This speech should have never been about Ukraine. And if
25:48
Speaker 1: Ukraine is so important, then we should have a speech
25:51
Speaker 1: about Ukraine on its own. Why did the President not
25:54
Speaker 1: do this speech in primetime about Ukraine because he knew
25:56
Speaker 1: the American people would say no. So all right, now
26:00
Speaker 1: we have some of the American people care about, and
26:02
Speaker 1: that's Israel, and Joe says, hey, I want more cash
26:06
Speaker 1: for military contractors and those that can blackmail me. You
26:12
Speaker 1: look at Joe Biden, you look at Biden's cabinet, you
26:16
Speaker 1: look at Biden's people around him. They are making unbelievable
26:20
Speaker 1: amounts of money, unbelievable amounts of money from these government contracts.
26:27
Speaker 1: There was someone that referred to the Secretary of State
26:30
Speaker 1: Anthony Blincoln as secretary of Boeing, saying he's basically the
26:35
Speaker 1: managing director of Boeing. He's a guy, you know, I mean,
26:41
Speaker 1: this is a guy that is all up in this industry.
26:44
Speaker 1: He co WESX Advisors, a boutique DC consultancy focused on
26:50
Speaker 1: advising companies on geopolitical risk and emerging opportunities. He also
26:56
Speaker 1: helped orchestrate the Russian disinformation Hopes letter that guy the
27:00
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop from Hell censored before the twenty twenty election.
27:04
Speaker 1: This is a guy along with a bunch of his
27:06
Speaker 1: steep state buddies. Remember his fifty friends had signed that
27:09
Speaker 1: letter telling you that the Russian or that the Hunter
27:13
Speaker 1: Biden laptop was disinformation from Russia. The same guy, Anthony
27:16
Speaker 1: Blincoln who did that is the same guy who's got
27:19
Speaker 1: all of his buddies getting massive contracts now from all
27:22
Speaker 1: this cash that the President says a quote smart investment.
27:29
Speaker 1: Anthony Blincoln, by the way, loves this slush fund. Anthony
27:34
Speaker 1: Blincoln is just one guy in the Biden administration who
27:39
Speaker 1: loves the defense industry because that's where his past and
27:42
Speaker 1: his future earnings are coming from. He is going to
27:46
Speaker 1: make an incredible amount of money when he leaves the government. Again,
27:49
Speaker 1: he made an incredible amount of money before he came
27:51
Speaker 1: back to the government in the Biden administration. You look
27:56
Speaker 1: at this in the Oval Office address, Joe Biden specifically
27:59
Speaker 1: called quote missiles for air defense artillery shells, by the way,
28:09
Speaker 1: made in twelve countries. Then he said in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas,
28:15
Speaker 1: and much more. He then went on to suggest that
28:17
Speaker 1: it was patriotic to funnel unlimited amounts of tax dollars
28:21
Speaker 1: to this ever expanding security stick. He's not even hiding
28:27
Speaker 1: that aspect of that. By the way, look at Defense
28:32
Speaker 1: Secretary Lloyd Austin. He's set on the board of Raytheon.
28:38
Speaker 1: He said, on the board. You don't think those guys
28:41
Speaker 1: are getting paid. So they're using the death of innocent men, women,
28:46
Speaker 1: children in infant to them headed by a terrist organization Hamas.
28:51
Speaker 1: They're using the death of Israelis and the hostages those
28:57
Speaker 1: that are still alive in Americans and the dead Americans
29:00
Speaker 1: and children to shake you down so that they can
29:04
Speaker 1: get their hands on money and get themselves rich. That's
29:07
Speaker 1: what the president was doing last night. It's disgusting, it
29:14
Speaker 1: is evil, it's grotesque. I'm all in favor of having
29:22
Speaker 1: a beer with any one of you and saying five
29:25
Speaker 1: million reasons why Vladimir Putin is bad. But I'm also
29:29
Speaker 1: not stupid enough to know that Ukraine and the people
29:32
Speaker 1: running that country aren't also just as corrupt as Vladimir Putin.
29:38
Speaker 1: Zolensky is not some amazing mother, Teresa. He's not a
29:43
Speaker 1: Winston Churchill, he's not the Iron Lady. He's not Donald
29:49
Speaker 1: Trump and reincarnated in Ukraine. He is a corrupt individual
29:58
Speaker 1: who is getting rich for the dollars that we are sending.
30:03
Speaker 1: Clain and simple. Not only is he that guy, but
30:09
Speaker 1: what's happening in Ukraine right now is even Ukraine understands it. Hey,
30:12
Speaker 1: Thank goodness, this war in Israel is perfect timing for us.
30:16
Speaker 1: Get us some more money, send us some more cash,
30:22
Speaker 1: help us get paid. All I can say is we're
30:30
Speaker 1: all being taken advantage of. And it's in the present
30:35
Speaker 1: of the United States of America. Should have never combined
30:39
Speaker 1: these two together. It should have and should be abled,
30:42
Speaker 1: and Congress should be able to pass funding for Ukraine
30:45
Speaker 1: separately than Israel. And if they do it together, every
30:49
Speaker 1: Republican that votes for this, you're an idiot. Every Republican
30:55
Speaker 1: that says, okay, yeah, I'll accept both as the same,
30:58
Speaker 1: you're an idiot. Israel is more important than Ukraine is
31:03
Speaker 1: to American interests. Israel is a better ally than Ukraine.
31:07
Speaker 1: Israel is a democracy. Ukraine really is not. Israel doesn't
31:13
Speaker 1: have them out of corruption anywhere close to what Ukraine has,
31:16
Speaker 1: which is a level that is at bare minimum as
31:19
Speaker 1: corrupt as Russia, and even more so since the war
31:22
Speaker 1: broke out. Pay attention to who's getting paid, follow the
31:28
Speaker 1: damn money, and I'll help you do it every day
