Latest / The Ben Ferguson Podcast / FAFO Venezuela! Maduro Captured as Liberals Side with the Narcos
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: I tell you what, you really can't make it up.
- 0:03Speaker 1: The Democrats responds to President Donald Trump taking out a
- 0:08Speaker 1: dictator that they said he should take out in twenty twenty,
- 0:13Speaker 1: but now they're angry that Donald Trump actually did it
- 0:16Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six. Welcome, it is so nice to
- 0:20Speaker 1: have you with us on the show. And let me
- 0:23Speaker 1: just go back to twenty twenty when Chuck Schumer was
- 0:27Speaker 1: on the floor of the Senate criticizing Trump for not
- 0:32Speaker 1: bringing end to the Maduro regime, the same regime that
- 0:36Speaker 1: they're now angry that Donald Trump has ended. Chuck Schumer
- 0:41Speaker 1: saying this in twenty twenty from the floor of the
- 0:44Speaker 1: United States Senate.
- 0:46Speaker 2: He brags about all these things he wants to do
- 0:48Speaker 2: or is doing, but his actions belie his words. Maybe
- 0:53Speaker 2: the best metaphor was his claim to bring democracy to
- 0:57Speaker 2: Venezuela policy there it flopped. If the policy was working,
- 1:05Speaker 2: Juan Guido wouldn't be in the balcony here, he'd be
- 1:07Speaker 2: in Venezuela. He'd be sitting in the president's palace or
- 1:12Speaker 2: at least waging a fight to win. He's here, and
- 1:16Speaker 2: the president brags about his Venezuela policy. Give us a break.
- 1:21Speaker 2: He hasn't brought an end to the Maduro regime. The
- 1:24Speaker 2: Meduro regime is more powerful today and more intrenched today
- 1:27Speaker 2: than it was when the president began.
- 1:30Speaker 1: So there is Chuck Schumer back in twenty twenty, and
- 1:33Speaker 1: for every angry liberal out there, what changed? I thought
- 1:37Speaker 1: you guys were angry with Donald Trump for another reason.
- 1:41Speaker 1: The media, by the way, also furious that no American
- 1:44Speaker 1: troops were killed, that we captured Maduro and his wife,
- 1:48Speaker 1: that we were able to do something that no other
- 1:50Speaker 1: country in the face the Earth could even possibly pull off.
- 1:53Speaker 1: And Marco Rubio out there taking all of the hits
- 1:57Speaker 1: on TV. He was on Face the Nation, Margaret Brennan,
- 2:01Speaker 1: she was angry, demanding answers over why the US didn't
- 2:05Speaker 1: do more, because apparently taking out Maduro's not enough. Bringing
- 2:09Speaker 1: Maduro to America to face justice not enough. Bring his wife,
- 2:13Speaker 1: who's also in the narco terrorism trade not enough. So
- 2:17Speaker 1: now they're angry at the same guy they claimed was
- 2:21Speaker 1: going to start World War three for actually stopping a
- 2:25Speaker 1: narco terrist that was killing countless Americans. Right now, somewhere
- 2:31Speaker 1: in the world, a kid you've never met is writing
- 2:33Speaker 1: you a letter. They're telling you about their day, their dreams,
- 2:38Speaker 1: the goal they scored, the tests they passed, the new
- 2:42Speaker 1: friend they made at school. Maybe they're drawing you even
- 2:45Speaker 1: a picture. Maybe they've asked you about your family, your
- 2:48Speaker 1: favorite color, what makes you laugh. They're wondering who you are,
- 2:52Speaker 1: this person who cares enough to be part of their
- 2:55Speaker 1: story and you You're not just sending money. You're writing back.
- 3:00Speaker 1: You're showing up month after month, letter after letter. You're
- 3:04Speaker 1: celebrating their victories, encouraging them through challenges, and reminding them
- 3:09Speaker 1: that they truly matter. Now, this isn't a transaction, It's
- 3:13Speaker 1: an incredible relationship that spans continence and changes everything for
- 3:18Speaker 1: both of you. That is where Compassion International connects you
- 3:22Speaker 1: directly with one child, real letters, real relationships, and real change.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Because poverty isn't solved with donations alone. It's solved by
- 3:32Speaker 1: showing up impact the world, one child at a time,
- 3:36Speaker 1: and learn how at Compassion dot Com. That's Compassion dot Com.
- 3:43Speaker 1: Margaret Brennan getting schooled by by Mark Rubio. Well done,
- 3:48Speaker 1: by the way, to the Secretary of State Marcar Rubio.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Here's what we had to say Sunday morning on Face
- 3:53Speaker 1: the Nation as she was losing her mind.
- 3:56Speaker 3: I'm confused. Are they still wanted by the United States?
- 3:59Speaker 3: Why didn't you arrest them? If you are taking out
- 4:03Speaker 3: the narco terrorist regime.
- 4:05Speaker 4: You're confused. I don't know why that's confusing to me.
- 4:07Speaker 4: They're still in very simple we're not going to go
- 4:09Speaker 4: in and wrap up. You're gonna but yeah, but you
- 4:12Speaker 4: can't go You're gonna go in and suck up five people.
- 4:14Speaker 4: They're already complaining about this one operation. Imagine the howls
- 4:18Speaker 4: we would have from everybody else if we actually had
- 4:20Speaker 4: to go and stay there four days to capture four
- 4:22Speaker 4: other people. We got the top priority. The number one
- 4:26Speaker 4: person on the list was the guy who claimed to
- 4:28Speaker 4: be the president of the country that he was not,
- 4:30Speaker 4: and he was arrested along with his wife, who was
- 4:32Speaker 4: also indicted. And that was a pretty sophisticated and frankly
- 4:35Speaker 4: complicated operation. It is not easy to land helicopters in
- 4:39Speaker 4: the middle of the largest military base in the country.
- 4:42Speaker 4: The guy lived on a military base, land within three minutes,
- 4:45Speaker 4: kick down his door, grab him, put him in handcuffs,
- 4:47Speaker 4: read him his rights, put him in a helicopter, and
- 4:50Speaker 4: leave the country without losing any American or any American assets.
- 4:53Speaker 4: That's not an easy mission, and you're asking me why
- 4:55Speaker 4: didn't we do that in five other places at the
- 4:57Speaker 4: same time. I mean, that's absurd. I do think this
- 5:01Speaker 4: is one of the most you know, daring, you know, complicated,
- 5:05Speaker 4: sophisticated missions this country has carried out in a very
- 5:08Speaker 4: long time. Tremendous credit to the US military personnel who
- 5:11Speaker 4: did it. It was unbelievable and tremendous success. And today,
- 5:16Speaker 4: an indicted drug trafficker who was not the legitimate president
- 5:18Speaker 4: of Venezuela. We don't recognize. The Biden administration didn't recognize.
- 5:23Speaker 4: Sixty something countries don't recognize, the European Union doesn't recognize,
- 5:27Speaker 4: and many countries in Latin America don't recognize. He was
- 5:29Speaker 4: a convict, he was an indicted drug trafficker. He was arrested,
- 5:33Speaker 4: his wife was arrested.
- 5:34Speaker 3: But the others there, others who are also indicted, are
- 5:37Speaker 3: still system of course, the others who are also indicted
- 5:39Speaker 3: are still in place. So that's the point of my
- 5:42Speaker 3: questioning there. But you talked about not being the legitiary you.
- 5:46Speaker 4: Wanted us to land in five other military bases.
- 5:49Speaker 3: No, I'm asking why you chose that this was the
- 5:51Speaker 3: limit of the military operation. But to your point that
- 5:55Speaker 3: you just made that because Madua was not the legitimate president.
- 5:58Speaker 4: He was the guy who was claiming to be the president.
- 6:00Speaker 3: Right, well, the opposition target.
- 6:03Speaker 1: Okay, so you may be confused. Are they mad that
- 6:07Speaker 1: we took out Maduro? Or are they mad that we
- 6:09Speaker 1: didn't take out other people that were in his regime
- 6:13Speaker 1: that are on a list of people that they want
- 6:16Speaker 1: us to take out? Or are they mad at us
- 6:18Speaker 1: because and I'm referring to the laugh of the media
- 6:20Speaker 1: and the crazies and the Democratic Party, the Socialists and
- 6:23Speaker 1: the communists, the Marxists, Are they mad that we didn't
- 6:27Speaker 1: actually go in and start W War three? Because I
- 6:30Speaker 1: thought they said that Donald Trump was going to start
- 6:33Speaker 1: wor War three. Now it sounds like they're wanting World
- 6:36Speaker 1: War three? Which one is it? Like, I just want
- 6:39Speaker 1: to know, I want to know which one it actually is.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Because jamacus for not bringing into the Majui regime in
- 6:48Speaker 1: twenty twenty. Now you're angry at us for going in
- 6:53Speaker 1: and not getting more of Maduro's people around him. That's
- 6:57Speaker 1: again CBS Two's like, like, why didn't you get more?
- 7:00Speaker 1: Was amazing. We got the top guy. You want to
- 7:02Speaker 1: say it for four days doing four amazing things at
- 7:04Speaker 1: the same time, Like that's not reality, Like world are
- 7:07Speaker 1: you living in, Margaret Brendan. But you understand here this
- 7:10Speaker 1: is all just pure anger because Donald Trump was successful
- 7:15Speaker 1: it taking out a Narco Terris, who is the fake
- 7:18Speaker 1: leader of a state who was killing hundreds of thousands
- 7:23Speaker 1: of Americans, who is responsible for killing hundreds of thousands,
- 7:27Speaker 1: if not more than a million Americans. There's also something
- 7:31Speaker 1: else I want to play for you that's very interesting,
- 7:33Speaker 1: and it is for people who I would argue are
- 7:37Speaker 1: maybe a little bit geopolitically illiterate. You don't understand why
- 7:40Speaker 1: Trump did what he did. I'm going to go back
- 7:43Speaker 1: to Tom Clancy. Is it Tom Clancy, Jack Ryan? I
- 7:46Speaker 1: get the Jack Ryn who wrote the Jack Ryan series.
- 7:48Speaker 1: I always get it right. Was it Tom Clinton Jungers?
- 7:52Speaker 1: I get him confused because I love them so much.
- 7:55Speaker 1: Tom Clancy, Okay, it's Clancy. My producer says, there is
- 7:58Speaker 1: a show on TV. It's Jack Ryan. It is an
- 8:01Speaker 1: awesome show. And I'm going to play for you a
- 8:05Speaker 1: clip of why Venezuela and why Donald Trump did what
- 8:09Speaker 1: he did? Why it was so important to do what
- 8:11Speaker 1: we did. This is from the show. This was written
- 8:14Speaker 1: and they changed the leader's name of the country for
- 8:19Speaker 1: the TV show. Just insert Maduro's name, and I want
- 8:23Speaker 1: you to understand why. And this has gone viral. I
- 8:26Speaker 1: remember watching this a long time ago. This has gone viral.
- 8:30Speaker 1: But it's where Jack Ryan is teaching a class, a
- 8:33Speaker 1: college class. Okay, listen to Jack Ryan is he's explaining
- 8:39Speaker 1: why Venezuela is so damn important, why making sure it's
- 8:42Speaker 1: not controlled by Narco Terris is so important, because this
- 8:47Speaker 1: is a country that not only can it reach America
- 8:52Speaker 1: if you get the wrong actors in there, Okay, if
- 8:55Speaker 1: you get Russia in there, you get China in there.
- 8:58Speaker 1: By the way, let's just be China's delegation had just
- 9:02Speaker 1: met with Madua when we took out Maduro. China's delegation
- 9:06Speaker 1: had just put out videos as well as Venezuela of
- 9:09Speaker 1: them meeting and talking about their big plans with one another.
- 9:13Speaker 1: China was still on the ground in Venezuela when we
- 9:18Speaker 1: and they woke up to I'm assuming hearing the rockets
- 9:22Speaker 1: and the explosions, and can you imagine being the Chinese
- 9:25Speaker 1: and you're like, wait, I just met with that guy.
- 9:26Speaker 1: Now that guy's in New York City where he's in
- 9:28Speaker 1: custody the United States of America. Holy crap. So if
- 9:31Speaker 1: you don't think they wanted Venezuela for the reasons I'm
- 9:34Speaker 1: about to explain, you don't understand the geopolitical aspect of this.
- 9:39Speaker 1: All right, let me go back to a second moment
- 9:40Speaker 1: ago for people that are geopolitically may not understand the
- 9:45Speaker 1: importance of Venezuela in on the world stage. I want
- 9:49Speaker 1: you to understand why Trump did what he did. I
- 9:51Speaker 1: want you understand why Russia and China and Cuba were
- 9:55Speaker 1: so involved in Venezuela and helping prop up Maduro. They
- 9:58Speaker 1: wanted the power, they wanted the reces sources, they wanted
- 10:00Speaker 1: the proximity to the US. There were countless reasons, including
- 10:04Speaker 1: oil and gold. You may not know just how big
- 10:09Speaker 1: of the old reserves and as Weella has. You may
- 10:11Speaker 1: not understand just how much gold and rare earth minerals
- 10:15Speaker 1: they have that are desperately needed by China and Russia
- 10:18Speaker 1: and everyone else in the world. And I want you
- 10:21Speaker 1: to listen to this again. This is they changed the
- 10:24Speaker 1: name of Maduro for the TV show Jack Ryan. It's
- 10:29Speaker 1: on I think it's on Netflix, and it's an amazing
- 10:32Speaker 1: two minute clip. Here to explain it to you. Listen carefully.
- 10:36Speaker 5: What would you assume is the most major threat on
- 10:38Speaker 5: the world stage? Anybody just call it out, you don't
- 10:40Speaker 5: have to raise your hands.
- 10:41Speaker 6: Definitely Russia.
- 10:42Speaker 5: Definitely Russia. That's confident. I liked her. Who says Russia?
- 10:45Speaker 5: Anybody agree with her? And it's okay? Right? Who else?
- 10:48Speaker 7: China?
- 10:49Speaker 5: Stop yelling at me, but China, it's a good answer. Anybody?
- 10:52Speaker 5: Who else?
- 10:53Speaker 4: China?
- 10:54Speaker 5: North Korea? North Korea? Any North Korea takers? And uh
- 11:00Speaker 5: Venezuela anybody? Nope?
- 11:02Speaker 1: Oh yep.
- 11:03Speaker 5: One guy in the back a little worried about Venezuela.
- 11:06Speaker 5: Everybody's cool with Venezuela. No threat. Okay. Let me ask
- 11:09Speaker 5: you this, which one of these places can claim to
- 11:11Speaker 5: have the largest oil deposit on the planet, more than
- 11:14Speaker 5: Saudi more than Iran? Wow? Okay, what about things like gold?
- 11:20Speaker 5: More than all the minds in Africa combined. The fact
- 11:23Speaker 5: is that Venezuela is arguably the single greatest resource of
- 11:28Speaker 5: oil and minerals on the planet. So why is this
- 11:31Speaker 5: country in the midst of one of the greatest humanitarian
- 11:34Speaker 5: crises in modern history. Let's meet President Nicholas Reyis.
- 11:39Speaker 1: Now you notice you said let's meet Nicholas reys Now
- 11:42Speaker 1: they just insert a different name for Nicholas Maduro to
- 11:46Speaker 1: change it for the show. Everything you just heard there
- 11:49Speaker 1: is completely factually accurate. Listen to the second part here
- 11:54Speaker 1: of what he says about the individual. Again, he's talking
- 11:56Speaker 1: about Maduro.
- 11:58Speaker 5: After rising to power on a wave of nationalist pride.
- 12:01Speaker 5: In a mere six years, this guy has crippled the
- 12:04Speaker 5: national economy by half. He has raised the poverty rate
- 12:07Speaker 5: by almost four hundred percent. Luckily for the rest of us,
- 12:11Speaker 5: he's up for reelection. So who's running against him? This
- 12:16Speaker 5: is Gloria Bonalde. Now, Gloria is a history professor turned activist.
- 12:21Speaker 5: She's running against him on a social justice platform and
- 12:24Speaker 5: on the strength of, in my humble opinion, just not
- 12:28Speaker 5: being an asshole. Analyst predictions as of today have the
- 12:33Speaker 5: chances of Venezuela's total economic collapse at eighty seven percent.
- 12:38Speaker 5: On the news, they'll call it a crisis, but on
- 12:42Speaker 5: the world stage, they'll call it a failed state. If
- 12:45Speaker 5: you've never heard that term. Other examples of a failed
- 12:48Speaker 5: state in recent history are Yemen, Iraq, and Syria. And
- 12:54Speaker 5: if that's not bad enough news for you, well, Venezuela
- 12:58Speaker 5: is also the only one of these places in thirty
- 13:00Speaker 5: minute range from the US of next gen nuclear missiles.
- 13:05Speaker 1: Let's just stop right there, thirty minutes away from next
- 13:08Speaker 1: gen nuclear weapons from America Venezuela. Why do you think
- 13:13Speaker 1: China was meeting with Maduro hours before we took him out?
- 13:18Speaker 1: Why do you think Cuba was guarding and trading oil
- 13:24Speaker 1: to help guard sending in their own military, their own
- 13:29Speaker 1: guys with their guns, who we probably ended up killing
- 13:32Speaker 1: some of these from Cuba, their expert snipers or whatever
- 13:36Speaker 1: their military they claimed they were. Obviously they were not
- 13:39Speaker 1: very good, because we were able to smoke them. But
- 13:42Speaker 1: you look at why these countries were so desperate to
- 13:45Speaker 1: be in bed with Venezuela. It's for exactly what you
- 13:49Speaker 1: just heard. And then you ask yourself the question, then,
- 13:52Speaker 1: why is it that Maduro failed if he has all
- 13:55Speaker 1: these resources, because he's a communist. Communists failed because the
- 14:00Speaker 1: system of government they set up is a failure. It
- 14:02Speaker 1: has never succeeded anywhere in the world communism. There's show
- 14:06Speaker 1: me a communist country, this forest, it doesn't exist. Keep
- 14:10Speaker 1: listening to the very last fifteen seconds to this.
- 14:14Speaker 5: You will not hear about any of this on the
- 14:17Speaker 5: news because the biggest players on the world stage do
- 14:20Speaker 5: not want you to them. Unstable governments are nothing more
- 14:25Speaker 5: than the greatest of opportunities. So Russia China to never
- 14:29Speaker 5: be the most major threat until countries like Venezuela leave
- 14:35Speaker 5: the door open to our very own backyard.
- 14:39Speaker 1: They needed Venezuela more than anything else to have access
- 14:44Speaker 1: to whatever it is that they wanted to do to
- 14:47Speaker 1: us in the United States of America. That is the
- 14:51Speaker 1: point that you need to understand about why the President
- 14:55Speaker 1: of United States of America acted. It's a very important
- 15:00Speaker 1: reason why the President of the United States of America
- 15:04Speaker 1: needed to act, because if you didn't act and this
- 15:11Speaker 1: all falls into their hands, you've got a problem. Go
- 15:16Speaker 1: get Syria and Asad for a second. Why was it
- 15:19Speaker 1: that Russia was propping up a SOD for so long
- 15:21Speaker 1: because they wanted access to the Middle East. I'm gonna
- 15:24Speaker 1: say it again. They wanted access to the Middle East,
- 15:31Speaker 1: and they propped up a SOD and protect a side
- 15:34Speaker 1: until they couldn't financially deal with it anymore. And why
- 15:37Speaker 1: could they not deal with it because they got into
- 15:39Speaker 1: a war with Ukraine. And so when Russia stopped the
- 15:42Speaker 1: flow of what was needed to keep propping them up,
- 15:46Speaker 1: then what happened? Asad fled? Where to Russia? And what
- 15:50Speaker 1: is Asad doing? They're in Russia right now. He's literally
- 15:53Speaker 1: a celebrity eye doctor. Many of you may not know
- 15:56Speaker 1: that he was actually a doctor before he became a dictator.
- 15:59Speaker 1: He is an eye doctor he is.
- 16:00Speaker 5: Now.
- 16:00Speaker 1: You can go in Russia and you can actually see
- 16:03Speaker 1: Usad who can be your eye doctor. Good luck if
- 16:05Speaker 1: you want to trust that guy out with your eyes.
- 16:07Speaker 1: But that's literally now what he is doing. So I
- 16:12Speaker 1: go back to the Democrats here. I'm still trying to
- 16:16Speaker 1: figure out what they're mad about. Are they mad that
- 16:18Speaker 1: we took out a guy that they demanded we take out?
- 16:21Speaker 1: Are they mad that we did it and we didn't
- 16:23Speaker 1: take out others? Are they mad that Donald Trump was
- 16:26Speaker 1: just successful? Or are they just mad that they now
- 16:31Speaker 1: have lost another one of their communists, another one they're socialists,
- 16:36Speaker 1: which is exactly what they want to do in this country.
- 16:39Speaker 1: Look at Mayor Mandanni. Mayor Mandanni is a guy one
- 16:43Speaker 1: of his comrades in the DSA demanded Trump release Maduro.
- 16:48Speaker 1: They are literally having quote solidarity with the Bolivian revolution.
- 16:52Speaker 1: This is not a joke. This is being reported on
- 16:54Speaker 1: right now in the New York Posts. And you think
- 16:57Speaker 1: about this, and these are their friends, and Donnie is
- 17:00Speaker 1: a friend of Maduro. They believe in the same thing.
- 17:05Speaker 1: There are communists just like Maduro who have been elected
- 17:10Speaker 1: in the United States of America. One of them is
- 17:14Speaker 1: literally in charge as we speak of New York City,
- 17:18Speaker 1: who was sworn in within hours before Maduro was taken out.
- 17:22Speaker 1: And now Maduro is in New York and the same
- 17:24Speaker 1: city where Mandannie is running the city. I say it
- 17:29Speaker 1: because it is a cautionary tale. It is an important
- 17:35Speaker 1: cautionary tale. So the takeaway for me, Number one is
- 17:41Speaker 1: this was long overdue. Number two, think goodness, the president
- 17:45Speaker 1: did it. Number three, we absolutely should care about all
- 17:51Speaker 1: of this. It is vitally important that we understand why
- 17:57Speaker 1: we did it, and the American people understand why we
- 18:00Speaker 1: did it, because if we didn't do it, I promise you,
- 18:04Speaker 1: these other countries would take a hold of Venezuela and
- 18:09Speaker 1: then there could be real threats to the United States
- 18:11Speaker 1: of America and once those threats are there, this is
- 18:14Speaker 1: no different than the Cuban missile crisis. Once those threats
- 18:18Speaker 1: are there, then what happens. And Maduro wasn't even able
- 18:23Speaker 1: with that or the largest gold reserves to keep his
- 18:28Speaker 1: country afloat. In fact, a third of the population had
- 18:33Speaker 1: fled the country because of Maduro's leadership. Now, if you
- 18:39Speaker 1: have these types of resources, if you have the oil
- 18:42Speaker 1: that they have the world's largest proven oil reserves in Venezuela,
- 18:47Speaker 1: and you have the largest gold reserves in the world,
- 18:51Speaker 1: more than all the African mines combined, and you can't
- 18:55Speaker 1: keep a country afloat and you have to turn to
- 19:00Speaker 1: selling cocaine to stay afloat. What does that tell you
- 19:05Speaker 1: about communism? Like this is not hard. Now I can
- 19:08Speaker 1: explain to you the reason why the oil industry has
- 19:15Speaker 1: just been a joke there because no one wants to
- 19:18Speaker 1: do business with the communists. That you think if you
- 19:20Speaker 1: put an infrastructure, they're just gonna steal it from you,
- 19:22Speaker 1: because that's exactly what Maduro has done. No one wants
- 19:25Speaker 1: to go in and do mining. As soon as you
- 19:27Speaker 1: get it up and running, then the government just comes
- 19:29Speaker 1: in and sees it and cuts your head off right. Maduro,
- 19:32Speaker 1: by the way, was not the president of Venezuela. As
- 19:34Speaker 1: secretary of Marco Rubio put it, his regime is not
- 19:36Speaker 1: the legitimate government. Madurea's ahead of the Cartel delo Solis,
- 19:41Speaker 1: a narco terror organization which has taken possession of a country.
- 19:46Speaker 1: He was under indictment for pushing drugs in the US
- 19:48Speaker 1: and killing hundreds of thousands of Americans. You know something
- 19:52Speaker 1: else it's also amazing about this story is the fact
- 19:54Speaker 1: that Maduro was literally in a helicopter passing over the
- 19:57Speaker 1: Statue of Liberty. Want to talk about poetic justice. As
- 20:02Speaker 1: I was watching this on Fox News Channel, and I
- 20:04Speaker 1: want to play it for you because I just thought
- 20:05Speaker 1: it was amazing. We're going to treat you with dignity.
- 20:08Speaker 1: We're going to treat you with respect. We're going to
- 20:10Speaker 1: treat you like like like a human being, something Maduro
- 20:14Speaker 1: never did for his own people. But I want you
- 20:17Speaker 1: to listen to the former the voice of the former
- 20:20Speaker 1: New York Police Department inspector Paul Morrow on Fox News channels.
- 20:24Speaker 1: They're talking about Maduro in a helicopter flying in after
- 20:27Speaker 1: we've taken him, and listen to what was said.
- 20:30Speaker 6: And Paul our viewers now watching Nicholas Maduro and his
- 20:33Speaker 6: wife Celia being flown to the Brooklyn detention center. We
- 20:37Speaker 6: saw them fly past the Statue of Liberty. He was
- 20:40Speaker 6: processed at the DEA headquarters here and now he'll go
- 20:43Speaker 6: to that detention center. Tell us a little bit of
- 20:46Speaker 6: what it's going to be like for Maduro and his
- 20:48Speaker 6: wife inside this detention center.
- 20:50Speaker 1: It won't be nice.
- 20:52Speaker 8: You know, normally day would be going to Manhattan, but
- 20:55Speaker 8: the Manhattan want is on the construction. They're redoing it
- 20:57Speaker 8: because it was falling apart, so they're trucking him now
- 21:01Speaker 8: out to Brooklyn. This is the same jail that has
- 21:04Speaker 8: held and I believe still Hells holds Menngeon and had
- 21:09Speaker 8: Gallaine Maxwell in the man Diddy was there, et cetera.
- 21:12Speaker 8: If you get arrested federally in New York, this is
- 21:13Speaker 8: where you're going to go. If you remember, Gallaine Maxwell
- 21:17Speaker 8: talked about the conditions there and how appalling they were.
- 21:20Speaker 8: She was coming from being, you know, with Epstein and
- 21:23Speaker 8: living a very high life and going, oh you can
- 21:25Speaker 8: imagine that juxtaposition. Now apply that to a guy who
- 21:28Speaker 8: was a president of a narco state with nothing but
- 21:31Speaker 8: money to throw around. This is going to be a
- 21:33Speaker 8: real reality Sandwich.
- 21:35Speaker 1: I love it. I just love the poetic justice. Like
- 21:39Speaker 1: you're flying over the Statue of Liberty the last time
- 21:42Speaker 1: in your life. You'll probably be on a helicopter seeing
- 21:45Speaker 1: this beautiful New York city that you've been to before.
- 21:48Speaker 1: By the way, when he would speak at the United Nations, right,
- 21:50Speaker 1: we would allow him to come and speak there, and
- 21:52Speaker 1: he would speak at the UN. But this is the
- 21:55Speaker 1: guy that's going in by the Statue of Liberty coming
- 21:58Speaker 1: into New York. It's incredible. I mean, it's truly incredible.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer, I go back to him caught a massive
- 22:08Speaker 1: hypocrisy slamming Trump in twenty twenty for not austing Maduro.
- 22:12Speaker 1: But in twenty twenty six he went on TV Today
- 22:17Speaker 1: and he's furious about the fact that we took out
- 22:19Speaker 1: the guy who was furious that Trump didn't take out
- 22:21Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. I'm gonna play the montage together for you.
- 22:25Speaker 2: Listen, begs about all these things he wants to do
- 22:28Speaker 2: or is doing, but his actions bele his words. Maybe
- 22:32Speaker 2: the best metaphor was his claim to bring democracy to Venezuela.
- 22:39Speaker 2: There was a big policy there. It flopped. If the
- 22:42Speaker 2: policy was working, Juan Guido wouldn't be in the balcony here,
- 22:46Speaker 2: He'd be in Venezuela. He'd be sitting in the president's
- 22:50Speaker 2: palace or at least waging a fight to win. He's here,
- 22:55Speaker 2: and the president brags about his Venezuela policy. Give us
- 22:59Speaker 2: a break. He hasn't brought an end to the Maduro regime.
- 23:03Speaker 2: The Maduro regime is more powerful today and more entrenched
- 23:07Speaker 2: today than it was when the president began.
- 23:09Speaker 1: So what can the Congress do about it?
- 23:11Speaker 7: Is the next question.
- 23:12Speaker 1: Now, I get that was old. Let's be clear. That
- 23:15Speaker 1: was twenty twenty Okay, what you just heard there. He's angry.
- 23:21Speaker 1: He's so angry twenty twenty six, actively fighting to thwart
- 23:26Speaker 1: Trump's actions. This is Chuck Schumer here. He is listen
- 23:31Speaker 1: to this about it is the next question.
- 23:33Speaker 2: Well, the next question is very simple, and that is
- 23:36Speaker 2: that we have the War Powers Act. That's a privileged resolution,
- 23:41Speaker 2: which means the Republicans can't block it. Tim Kaine and
- 23:44Speaker 2: I and Ran Paul are sponsors of it. It's going
- 23:47Speaker 2: to come to the floor this week, and if it
- 23:51Speaker 2: is voted for. If it's voted positively in both houses,
- 23:55Speaker 2: then the president can't do another thing in Venezuela without
- 23:58Speaker 2: the okay of Congress. We have to pass year President
- 24:01Speaker 2: Trump say that he intends for the United States to
- 24:05Speaker 2: run Venezuela. It was reckless, it was dangerous, and looking
- 24:10Speaker 2: at the President's demeanor, he didn't even seem to be
- 24:12Speaker 2: aware of how dangerous and reckless it is. Let me
- 24:16Speaker 2: be clear, Maduro is an illegitimate dictator, but launching military
- 24:22Speaker 2: action without congressional authorization, without a credible plan.
- 24:27Speaker 7: For what comes next is reckless. Now, I was in
- 24:30Speaker 7: the skiff on three different occasions, as recently as December,
- 24:36Speaker 7: and I asked the administration, I said, I asked them,
- 24:41Speaker 7: is that are you pursuing regime change? Are you intent
- 24:45Speaker 7: on taking military action in Venezuela Bevelezuelan territory? And they
- 24:50Speaker 7: assured me that they were not pursuing those things. Clearly,
- 24:54Speaker 7: they're not being straight.
- 24:55Speaker 1: Right, by the way, let's be clear, he says in
- 24:58Speaker 1: the s given December. If he was in this in December,
- 25:00Speaker 1: that's means that the information would have been around the
- 25:04Speaker 1: Biden administration, the Biden regime not Trump's regime. So I
- 25:10Speaker 1: think there's a certain level just straight up like fantasy
- 25:13Speaker 1: line pathological there from Chuck Schumer and the comedy just made.
- 25:19Speaker 1: The second thing is, why the hell would we tell
- 25:21Speaker 1: you what we're going to do. You're the guy that
- 25:24Speaker 1: would probably go directly the press or directly to Venezuela
- 25:27Speaker 1: and leak what the plan was. It's the same reason
- 25:30Speaker 1: one of these Democrats, like he didn't tell anybody in Congress,
- 25:33Speaker 1: Why the hell would he? It's a very very very
- 25:36Speaker 1: legitimate question. Why would he? Why would anyone trust the
- 25:42Speaker 1: Democratic Party to not run? And again, the Democratic Party,
- 25:45Speaker 1: I've been saying it for a long time and I
- 25:46Speaker 1: will keep saying it filled with Marxists, socialists and communists.
- 25:52Speaker 1: Maduro is literally one of their own. Why on earth
- 25:56Speaker 1: would you go tell them what you were about to do?
- 26:01Speaker 1: Why would you tell them what you're about to do?
- 26:05Speaker 1: Because you know they would have warned him and said
- 26:07Speaker 1: Maduro heads up or leaked to the press. The press
- 26:10Speaker 1: could then warn Maduro heads up, they're coming for you,
- 26:14Speaker 1: which then asks the big question, and my head, whose
- 26:17Speaker 1: side are you really on? I can promise you on
- 26:19Speaker 1: the side of the United States of America. It's on
- 26:21Speaker 1: the side of our men and women that are risking
- 26:22Speaker 1: their lives in the military action that we just saw.
- 26:24Speaker 1: That was amazing, because if you're telling the terrorists that
- 26:27Speaker 1: we're coming for them, that puts their lives at risk,
- 26:29Speaker 1: and the casualties that numbers are real are very real.
- 26:34Speaker 1: So I'll tell you this, the President made the right decision.
- 26:39Speaker 1: The foreign policy of FAFO absolutely the foreign policy that
- 26:45Speaker 1: the President promised and the one that we needed. Watching
- 26:48Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer criticize you strike in Venezuela and capture the
- 26:52Speaker 1: Venezuelan president is disgusting, but not surprising, especially in light
- 26:58Speaker 1: of what he said in twenty twenty. It's not surprising
- 27:03Speaker 1: at all, and expect more of this from the Democratic Party.
- 27:08Speaker 1: They will stand with Maduro and the Narco terris if
- 27:11Speaker 1: it means standing against Donald Trump, even if it costs
- 27:15Speaker 1: American lives with the drugs coming into this country. Don't
- 27:19Speaker 1: forget Share this podcast wherever you can with your family
- 27:22Speaker 1: and your friends, and I'll see you back here tomorrow.
