Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: NATO is holding firepower drills and LATFIA. Why because there
- 0:06Speaker 1: are real concerns now that we are in not down
- 0:09Speaker 1: the verds, but we're actually in the beginnings of war
- 0:11Speaker 1: War three. President Joe Biden also came out and said
- 0:16Speaker 1: that G seven nations are going to take steps to
- 0:19Speaker 1: deny Most Favored Nation status to Russia, not just the
- 0:24Speaker 1: United States of America. The US will also ban imports
- 0:28Speaker 1: on Russian seafood, Russian alcohol, and diamonds. The question you
- 0:32Speaker 1: should be asking yourself right now is why did this
- 0:35Speaker 1: take so long? Now? A quick reminder, if you're listening

- 0:45Speaker 1: share this on social media, and if you would write
- 0:47Speaker 1: us a five star review to help us as Democrats
- 0:50Speaker 1: have been attacking our podcasts recently with bad reviews. Now
- 0:55Speaker 1: Here is part of the present announcement to the world.
- 0:57Speaker 1: As food continues. As merciless assault, the United States and
- 1:01Speaker 1: our allies and partners continue to work and lockstep to
- 1:04Speaker 1: ramp up the economic pressures on Putin and to further
- 1:07Speaker 1: isolate Russia and the global stage. Later today, together with
- 1:11Speaker 1: other NATO allies in the G seven, Canada, France, Germany,
- 1:16Speaker 1: Italy and Japan, the United Kingdom, as well as the
- 1:19Speaker 1: European Union. We're going to jointly announce several new steps
- 1:22Speaker 1: to squeeze Putin and hold them more even more accountable
- 1:25Speaker 1: for his aggression against Ukraine. And I want to speak
- 1:28Speaker 1: to a few of those points today. First, each of
- 1:31Speaker 1: our nation is going to take steps to the NYE
- 1:33Speaker 1: Most Favored Nations status to Russia. Our Most Favored Nations
- 1:39Speaker 1: status designation means two countries have agreed to trade with
- 1:44Speaker 1: each other under the best possible terms, low tariffs, a
- 1:48Speaker 1: few barriers of trade, and the highest possible imports allowed.
- 1:53Speaker 1: In the United States, we call this Permanent Normal Trade
- 1:56Speaker 1: Relations PNTR, but it's the same thing. Revoke PNTR for
- 2:01Speaker 1: Russia is going to make it harder for Russia to
- 2:03Speaker 1: do business with the United States, and doing it in
- 2:06Speaker 1: unison with other nations to make up half of the
- 2:09Speaker 1: global economy will be another crushing blow to the Russian economy.
- 2:13Speaker 1: It's already suffering very badly from our sanctions. And I
- 2:17Speaker 1: want to thank Speaker Pelosi, Leader McCarthy, Leader Schumer, and
- 2:20Speaker 1: McConnell and Senators Widen and Crapo represent as Neil and
- 2:24Speaker 1: Brady for their bipartisan leadership on this in the Congress.
- 2:28Speaker 1: I would like to offer a special thanks to Speaker Pelos,
- 2:31Speaker 1: who's been a strong advocate for revoking PNTR and who
- 2:35Speaker 1: agreed to hold off on that in the House until
- 2:39Speaker 1: I could line up all of our key allies to
- 2:42Speaker 1: keep us in complete unison. Unity among our allies as
- 2:45Speaker 1: critically important, as you all know, and from my perspective,
- 2:48Speaker 1: least many issues divided us in Washington, but standing for
- 2:52Speaker 1: democracy in Ukraine pushing Russia's aggression should not be one
- 2:56Speaker 1: of those issues. The free world is coming together to
- 3:00Speaker 1: front puttin. Are two parties here at home are leading
- 3:03Speaker 1: the way, and with that bipartisan cooperation, I'm looking forward
- 3:06Speaker 1: to sign in the law, the bill revolking p and TR,
- 3:12Speaker 1: which is again most people think of his most favorite
- 3:14Speaker 1: nations status. We're also taking a further step abandon imports
- 3:18Speaker 1: of goods from several signature sectors of the Russian economy,
- 3:22Speaker 1: including seafoods, vodka, and diamonds. Now, the question you should
- 3:28Speaker 1: be asking is what took so long? How is it
- 3:31Speaker 1: taking this long? We've seen videos coming out, and those
- 3:35Speaker 1: videos are very clear of the atrocities that are being
- 3:37Speaker 1: committed by Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin has started World War three.
- 3:42Speaker 1: The question is are we going to stop it? Are
- 3:44Speaker 1: we going to help defeat him? Are we going to
- 3:47Speaker 1: push him back within his own borders? Are we going
- 3:49Speaker 1: to allow him to continue to act like a madman
- 3:51Speaker 1: who is killing innocent women and children, attacking hospitals, children's hospitals,
- 3:57Speaker 1: maternity wards. Are we going to out for more mass
- 4:00Speaker 1: graves to be dug and bodies to be thrown in
- 4:04Speaker 1: them in Ukraine? Now, this is there very new, real
- 4:08Speaker 1: concerns about chemical weapons. There was only one question that
- 4:13Speaker 1: Joe Biden would answer at the end of his press
- 4:16Speaker 1: conference right banning all of these things. And the question
- 4:19Speaker 1: is one that has been brought up a lot in
- 4:21Speaker 1: the last twenty four to forty eight hours, and that
- 4:24Speaker 1: is there is intelligence now and people are very concerned
- 4:27Speaker 1: that chemical weapons may be used by Vladimir Putin. Would
- 4:30Speaker 1: that be a red line? Now? The White House Press
- 4:33Speaker 1: Secretary bungled that one as well when she was asked
- 4:36Speaker 1: the question and would not answer if that was a
- 4:40Speaker 1: red line? Now, remember I don't want them to say
- 4:42Speaker 1: it's a red line if it's not. I want to
- 4:44Speaker 1: be clear about that, Okay, I don't want them to
- 4:46Speaker 1: say it's a red line if we don't back it up.
- 4:50Speaker 1: I remember when Syria and there was a red line
- 4:54Speaker 1: question asked. You remember that of Barack Obama. You may
- 4:58Speaker 1: remember that red line question where he was asked about
- 5:02Speaker 1: would it changed the calculus if chemical weapons were used?
- 5:06Speaker 1: And he said, yes, that would change our calculus, as
- 5:10Speaker 1: Obama put it back then, then they were used, and
- 5:14Speaker 1: what did we do? We did nothing, you know. I
- 5:18Speaker 1: remember I go back to twenty seventeen when Donald Trump
- 5:21Speaker 1: was asked about that red line and he said, I'm
- 5:23Speaker 1: not like Obama where I draw a red line and
- 5:25Speaker 1: then don't act. And this is the reason why Vladimir
- 5:28Speaker 1: Prutent other people didn't screw with Donald Trump. It's a president.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Thank you for joining us. Let's start with North Korea.
- 5:34Speaker 1: I know a lot of people have been talking about it.
- 5:35Speaker 1: You mentioned it over the weekend with CBS. Kim Jong Un?
- 5:40Speaker 1: Is there a red line for President Trump with North Korea? Well,
- 5:44Speaker 1: I'm not like President Obama where you drew a red line,
- 5:47Speaker 1: as he said a red line in the sand, and
- 5:49Speaker 1: then lots of bad things happened, and he never goes
- 5:52Speaker 1: over the red line. In fact, I actually covered his
- 5:55Speaker 1: red line for him with Syria. But I will say
- 5:58Speaker 1: that you see what's going on, it's very very bad.
- 6:02Speaker 1: It's very threatening to us and to many many other allies.
- 6:07Speaker 1: If you look at South Korea, if you look at
- 6:09Speaker 1: Japan and others, it's a very horrible thing that's going on.
- 6:13Speaker 1: In the statements are very inflammatory, they're horrible. So we'll
- 6:17Speaker 1: have to see. I don't like doing red lines, but
- 6:20Speaker 1: I active, I have to act. I like the way that.
- 6:22Speaker 1: By the way, Donald Trump answered at the time, he said, look,
- 6:24Speaker 1: I'm not like Obama, where if I do draw a
- 6:27Speaker 1: red line and it's cross, I'm going to actually act.
- 6:32Speaker 1: I'm not going to sit back. You know. Even Barack
- 6:36Speaker 1: Obama was asked after the fact about that, he said,
- 6:38Speaker 1: I don't regret it at all, laying down red line
- 6:40Speaker 1: with Syria, and the media helped him get out of
- 6:42Speaker 1: this when he was doing a CBS interview back in
- 6:44Speaker 1: twenty and seventeen, and he says, well, I don't regret it. Well,
- 6:48Speaker 1: the world responds when you are weak, and they realize
- 6:51Speaker 1: that when you lie and you say there's a red
- 6:53Speaker 1: line on human rights abuses, there's a red line on
- 6:56Speaker 1: chemical weapons, and then you don't act that, there will
- 6:59Speaker 1: be consequences, raising questions about his credibility. I want to
- 7:03Speaker 1: go back to like two thousand and twelve. Yeah, I
- 7:07Speaker 1: wanted to two words red line. Yeah, you didn't have
- 7:12Speaker 1: to say that. Yeah, And there have been reports that
- 7:15Speaker 1: it wasn't in your speech. Wasn't that you just sort
- 7:18Speaker 1: of ad libbed it if you could pull but it
- 7:21Speaker 1: created it created problems for you with the with the
- 7:24Speaker 1: military people. Would you take those words back? You didn't
- 7:28Speaker 1: have to say them. Yeah, Look, if you're putting all
- 7:31Speaker 1: the weight on that particular phrase. And then in terms
- 7:38Speaker 1: of how it was interpreted in Washington, I think you
- 7:41Speaker 1: make a legitimate point. By the way, I love how
- 7:43Speaker 1: they always says, this is how it's interpreted in Washington.
- 7:46Speaker 1: A red line should not have any other interpretation except
- 7:49Speaker 1: for the fact that it's a red line. You know,
- 7:52Speaker 1: Barack Obama was literally saying, well, the betway established miss
- 7:56Speaker 1: establishment misconstrued my red line on Syries. Yeah, that's what
- 8:01Speaker 1: he was saying. That's what that's literally what He's saying, well,
- 8:04Speaker 1: the Beltway establishment and they misconstrued it. Now you've got
- 8:09Speaker 1: a president they were watching now and then and again
- 8:11Speaker 1: the White House's like, well, we don't know, all right,
- 8:14Speaker 1: So where are we with this president? Right? If chemical
- 8:16Speaker 1: weapons are used? What does that mean? We now have
- 8:19Speaker 1: a response. This is the response to the president one question,
- 8:23Speaker 1: one question only of him from the White House Press
- 8:25Speaker 1: Corps before he walked out of the room after saying
- 8:28Speaker 1: that Russia, will you know it's gonna lose the ability
- 8:31Speaker 1: to sell us alcohol and diamonds and fish because that's
- 8:35Speaker 1: gonna stop Putin? And what the US have a military
- 8:38Speaker 1: response if Whutin does launch the chemical weapons attack. I'm
- 8:42Speaker 1: not going to speak about the intelligence, but Russia would
- 8:45Speaker 1: pay severe price of the use chemical President there announcing
- 8:55Speaker 1: new economic steps, notably in conjunction with partners, namely removed.
- 9:02Speaker 1: I love it, right, oh, Laurashia would pay a severe
- 9:05Speaker 1: price if they use chemical weapons. I'm not gonna speak
- 9:09Speaker 1: about the intelligence, but they pay a severe price. What
- 9:12Speaker 1: is that, superior? What is that severe price, mister president?
- 9:17Speaker 1: Because so far you hadn't made him pay for anything
- 9:19Speaker 1: he's done so far, so far, this has not been
- 9:21Speaker 1: a very big deal, mister President. So far, this has
- 9:24Speaker 1: been pretty easy. You guys are not just a day
- 9:28Speaker 1: late in dollars short. You're like a month late and
- 9:31Speaker 1: billions of dollars short of what the people in Ukraine
- 9:34Speaker 1: needed protect and defend themselves. And now all of a sudden,
- 9:36Speaker 1: you're like, Wow, there's gonna be a there's gonna be
- 9:39Speaker 1: a real thing here that happens, like, they better not
- 9:41Speaker 1: screw with us. If I'm glad and we're putting right now,
- 9:44Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be totally honest. I'm not afraid of
- 9:46Speaker 1: the United States of America right now because they don't
- 9:49Speaker 1: seem to have the stomach to do anything. I'm talking
- 9:51Speaker 1: directly about Joe Biden, his leadership. No one's afraid of
- 9:56Speaker 1: him right now. I mean, why would you be afraid
- 9:58Speaker 1: of him right now? Is there anything that he said
- 10:01Speaker 1: so far that you would be afraid of? I don't
- 10:03Speaker 1: see it. I don't understand what we're trying to do.
- 10:07Speaker 1: I don't understand our strategy right now because we are
- 10:11Speaker 1: always behind on everything that we are doing. Right now,
- 10:14Speaker 1: I don't comprehend what they're trying to accomplish. And I
- 10:19Speaker 1: think I'm not the only one. Right now, Russia would
- 10:22Speaker 1: pay a severe price if they use chemical weapons. Not
- 10:25Speaker 1: gonna tell you what that is, but it's gonna be severe,
- 10:28Speaker 1: and we're announcing that. Let me talk about severity, right,
- 10:31Speaker 1: I mean, you you just took away most favored nation
- 10:34Speaker 1: satus from Russia. That's not severe. You just said we're
- 10:36Speaker 1: not gonna buy their alcohol, that's not severe. You just
- 10:38Speaker 1: said we're not gonna buy their seafood. That's not severe.
- 10:42Speaker 1: So what's next? Because so far we've done pretty much
- 10:45Speaker 1: nothing to really hammer Vladimir Putin. If anything, we're we're
- 10:50Speaker 1: letting him take the lead on every scenario, which also
- 10:53Speaker 1: includes the fighter jets with Poland, which has also been
- 10:55Speaker 1: another disaster. The White House, by the way, is also
- 10:59Speaker 1: really loving this conflict between Ukraine and Russia because they're
- 11:03Speaker 1: getting to use it to blame Russia for all of
- 11:08Speaker 1: the problems we're having here domestically. They're getting to also
- 11:14Speaker 1: use Russia and Ukraine to implement their Green New Deal,
- 11:18Speaker 1: mandating that you submit to what it is they want
- 11:20Speaker 1: you to do with green energy. With buying an electric vehicle,
- 11:23Speaker 1: I mean, you've got seven dollars plus the gallon gas, right,
- 11:26Speaker 1: now in California, how many people are going to look
- 11:28Speaker 1: at electric vehicles now a lot? And that's exactly what
- 11:32Speaker 1: they want. So if you think that this war in
- 11:34Speaker 1: Ukraine is all bad news for Joe Biden, it's not.
- 11:37Speaker 1: In many ways, it's a get out of jail free
- 11:39Speaker 1: card for them, which is also really what was admitted
- 11:43Speaker 1: by the White House Pressinger Tierry when she was asked
- 11:47Speaker 1: a question by Peter Ducey like, are you guys gonna
- 11:50Speaker 1: blame everything, all of your failures, all of your domestic
- 11:54Speaker 1: failures and Vladimir Putin until the midterms, And her honest
- 11:57Speaker 1: answer should have been hell, yeah, we are heard you
- 12:00Speaker 1: say again that you think inflation is going to be temporary.
- 12:04Speaker 1: We've heard you say that it was going to be
- 12:05Speaker 1: temporary since last spring. So how long do you guys
- 12:08Speaker 1: think of temporary? Is well, again, Peter, I think what
- 12:12Speaker 1: we do as we rely on the assessments of the
- 12:14Speaker 1: Federal Reserve and of outside economic analysts who give an
- 12:19Speaker 1: assessment of how long will last the expectations and their
- 12:22Speaker 1: assessment at this point continues to be that it will
- 12:25Speaker 1: moderate by the end of the year. There's also no
- 12:27Speaker 1: question that when a foreign dictator invades a foreign country,
- 12:31Speaker 1: and when that foreign dictator is the head of a
- 12:33Speaker 1: country that is the third largest supplier of oil in
- 12:36Speaker 1: the in the world, that that is going to have
- 12:38Speaker 1: an impact. And it is so to that point inflation
- 12:41Speaker 1: goes up. Today. The president's statement blames the Putin price hype.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Are you guys just going to start blaming Putin for
- 12:48Speaker 1: everything until the midterms? Well, and by the way, he's right,
- 12:52Speaker 1: because everything now is like blame Putin, Blame Putin, Blame Putin.
- 12:57Speaker 1: They're exploiting this tragedy that her to fit tragedy what
- 13:02Speaker 1: could very well be the start of World War three.
- 13:05Speaker 1: And I think I think if you ask Ladimir puting
- 13:07Speaker 1: those around, they would say, yeah, we started World War three.
- 13:09Speaker 1: You guys are just too stupid to realize it. You're
- 13:12Speaker 1: you're I mean, we've got gas prices hitting a record
- 13:15Speaker 1: high again five days in a row. And what are
- 13:18Speaker 1: they telling you to go by that green car? We've
- 13:20Speaker 1: been telling you we're gonna punish you until you submit
- 13:23Speaker 1: to our ideology. That's what they're doing. And they understand
- 13:31Speaker 1: there's an opportunity here. They get it. You know. Russia
- 13:37Speaker 1: also is being said, is saying now we'll fine, all right,
- 13:40Speaker 1: you all your companies that are pulling out virtue signaling, right,
- 13:42Speaker 1: the same companies are still doing work in China, which
- 13:46Speaker 1: with their human rights abuses. Yeah, we're gonna seize all
- 13:49Speaker 1: the assets left behind by the existing the exiting foreign
- 13:53Speaker 1: companies that are leaving. They they've come out and said this,
- 13:56Speaker 1: And it's so funny to see all these companies virtue
- 13:58Speaker 1: signal when the same type of atrocities are happening at
- 14:02Speaker 1: the hands of the Chinese, and child labor and forced labor,
- 14:05Speaker 1: and internment camps and death of people based on their religion.
- 14:08Speaker 1: All the things that we're witnessing Russia do right now,
- 14:11Speaker 1: they do in China. And all these companies are happy
- 14:14Speaker 1: to do business in China, but they're virtue signaling now
- 14:16Speaker 1: in Russia. And Russia's Economic Development Ministry is now say
- 14:20Speaker 1: they are preparing a draft legislation that would allow the
- 14:24Speaker 1: Kremlin to nationalize the assets of foreign owned businesses that
- 14:26Speaker 1: leave the country. The bill would allow the State Corporation
- 14:31Speaker 1: and the Deposit Insurance AGENCYDIA to quickly take control of
- 14:34Speaker 1: such companies and then repack the businesses into a new
- 14:37Speaker 1: organization and sell it at public auction if there are
- 14:41Speaker 1: no applicants haha. Here it is the state will act
- 14:43Speaker 1: as a buyer. There it is. Russian Economic Development Ministry
- 14:48Speaker 1: drafted the legislation response to a mass exos of foreign
- 14:51Speaker 1: businesses from Russia since February the twenty fourth, when Moscow
- 14:54Speaker 1: launched its latest military operation Ukraine. United Russia, the nation's
- 14:59Speaker 1: ruling party, to scry the bill as the first step
- 15:01Speaker 1: towards the nationalization of the property of foreign organizations leaving
- 15:04Speaker 1: the Russian market. Quote. United Russia added in a statement
- 15:08Speaker 1: on the Telegram messaging app that the Russian Commission on
- 15:11Speaker 1: Lawmaking Activity had supported a bill allowing the firm more
- 15:15Speaker 1: than twenty five percent owned by foreigners from unfriendly states
- 15:21Speaker 1: to be put into external external administration. Russian's Economic Development
- 15:27Speaker 1: Ministry has already sent the Russian government and the Russian
- 15:29Speaker 1: Prosecutor General's Office a list of fifty nine foreign companies
- 15:33Speaker 1: that may be nationalized after they announced the termination of
- 15:36Speaker 1: work in Russian in recent days. The list includes Volkswagen, Apple, I, Keia, Microsoft, IBM, Shell, McDonald's, Porsche,
- 15:44Speaker 1: h and M, and others, according to Russian news agencies.
- 15:48Speaker 1: In addition to Shell by the way. The foreign energy
- 15:50Speaker 1: firms ex On Mobile and BP also announced plans to
- 15:54Speaker 1: hall business in Russian response to its the latest invasion
- 15:56Speaker 1: of Ukraine. New York Times on March tenth, publishing extend
- 16:00Speaker 1: it's a list of companies that have announced business curbs
- 16:02Speaker 1: and Russian since February writing. Shell will exit its joint
- 16:06Speaker 1: ventures with the Russian national gas giant gas Prom. BP
- 16:10Speaker 1: will sell it's nearly twenty percent stake in Rodsnepp, the
- 16:14Speaker 1: Russian state controlled oil company. An x On Mobile we'll
- 16:17Speaker 1: end its involvement in a large oil and natural gas project.
- 16:20Speaker 1: A number of financial firms likewise announced various pullouts from
- 16:24Speaker 1: the Russian market as of March tenth. It's interesting, by
- 16:27Speaker 1: the way, as I read this to you, you notice
- 16:29Speaker 1: that the private sector, who has real skin in the game.
- 16:32Speaker 1: I'm talking about actual like dollars, It's like they're understanding
- 16:36Speaker 1: what's happening while the White House is not. Have you
- 16:39Speaker 1: have you noticed that? Right? Have have you noticed that?
- 16:43Speaker 1: I mean seriously, it's like they really do understand it,
- 16:47Speaker 1: Like they really get it, folks, Like they totally understand it.
- 16:52Speaker 1: They understand that this is a war, and it's really
- 16:55Speaker 1: I think in many ways a start of War War three.
- 16:57Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that to scare anybody. I'm just saying,
- 17:00Speaker 1: as you understand it's a private sector. Understand that these
- 17:02Speaker 1: people are pulling out with no intention of going back
- 17:04Speaker 1: in anytime soon, because it's like they understand what's happening
- 17:09Speaker 1: with Vladimir Putin. Way the United States government has no
- 17:13Speaker 1: idea what's actually happening. Why is that. Let's go back
- 17:18Speaker 1: to jen Psaki for a moment. Jen Psaki understands it.
- 17:22Speaker 1: As long as Russia is the front page of the news,
- 17:24Speaker 1: they can blame everything that they've screwed up in this
- 17:26Speaker 1: country on Russia. The price of gas go up at
- 17:30Speaker 1: least seventy five cents since President Putin lines up troops
- 17:34Speaker 1: on the border of Ukraine. And last month the statement
- 17:38Speaker 1: didn't mention the Putin price that I could mentioned inflation
- 17:40Speaker 1: because of the pandemic. Why is that, Well, Peter, last year,
- 17:44Speaker 1: last two years, there was a global pandemic. Everyone who's
- 17:48Speaker 1: a global economists have all agreed that that has been
- 17:52Speaker 1: the biggest contributor to dates of inflation because of the
- 17:56Speaker 1: impact on the supply chain. Obviously, global events impact the economy,
- 18:00Speaker 1: the global economy, as well as global inflation and the
- 18:05Speaker 1: price hikes as a result that have escalated over the
- 18:08Speaker 1: course of time of President Putin's further invasion of the
- 18:13Speaker 1: impact on the global aisle markets are of course having
- 18:16Speaker 1: an impact. President Biden has hosted electric vehicle stakeholders here
- 18:21Speaker 1: at the White House. Would he host foil and gas producers,
- 18:25Speaker 1: the people who are the most affected by the Putin
- 18:28Speaker 1: price hike? By the way, simil question, you've got an
- 18:30Speaker 1: energy crisis, you would think, right, any man in the
- 18:33Speaker 1: right mind that runs the United States of America government
- 18:36Speaker 1: and watching what's happening would immediately say, of course, I'm
- 18:38Speaker 1: going to meet with them. Why wouldn't I We got
- 18:41Speaker 1: to figure this out because we got to undermine Vladimir Putin.
- 18:43Speaker 1: We got to make sure that this guy isn't making
- 18:45Speaker 1: more money. Like, of course we're going to do that.
- 18:47Speaker 1: Why would you? You know, it's a great question, Peter, Well,
- 18:51Speaker 1: remember they want you to be suffering right now because
- 18:53Speaker 1: you haven't done what they told you to do. You
- 18:56Speaker 1: haven't submitted to their green new ideology, their religion. So
- 19:00Speaker 1: if you think that she was going to respond with
- 19:02Speaker 1: anything outside of what she responded with which was, of course,
- 19:06Speaker 1: we're not meeting with him. We're not. There's a there's
- 19:07Speaker 1: a plan on the books to meet with the people
- 19:09Speaker 1: that make natural gas and oil that drill these companies.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Why would we do that because we like seven dollars
- 19:15Speaker 1: gallon gas, Peter, and we get to blame it on
- 19:18Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin right now, But we're gonna make you go
- 19:20Speaker 1: buy that damn car that we told you to buy. Well,
- 19:23Speaker 1: the oil and gas. I have nothing to preview or
- 19:26Speaker 1: predict for you in terms of him hosting oil company executives.
- 19:31Speaker 1: I don't have anything planned on the schedule for that front.
- 19:34Speaker 1: But I will tell you that the president has been
- 19:36Speaker 1: clear that he believes they have the tools they need
- 19:41Speaker 1: nine thousand unused permits, they have the uh, the capacity
- 19:45Speaker 1: they need to go get more oil here in the
- 19:48Speaker 1: United States, and he'd encourage them to do that. Go ahead.
- 19:51Speaker 1: Electric vehicles, You guys are pushing electric vehicles today. This
- 19:54Speaker 1: is a president who always talks about the power of
- 19:57Speaker 1: our example, does he own an electric vehicle. Presidents of
- 20:00Speaker 1: the United States don't do a lot of driving. He's
- 20:03Speaker 1: posted videos where he's riving the engine of his Corvette
- 20:05Speaker 1: and well LinkedIn Heald's cars, and he also has driven
- 20:08Speaker 1: electric vehicles as president as to give a model to
- 20:11Speaker 1: the rest of the country. I love this right now.
- 20:14Speaker 1: So now you just drive an electric vehicle, and that's
- 20:16Speaker 1: model enough for the left. Right, you got to buy one,
- 20:19Speaker 1: and you can't afford the gas to put in your
- 20:21Speaker 1: car now. But we don't have to buy them because
- 20:23Speaker 1: we're rich, we're important. We play by a different set
- 20:27Speaker 1: of rules. But just no, we're cracking down, folks. We're
- 20:31Speaker 1: not screwing around anymore. We're gonna ban seafood from Russia,
- 20:35Speaker 1: and we're gonna ban alcohol from Russia Bay Gali, and
- 20:39Speaker 1: that's gonna stop all this. By the way, we're gonna
- 20:42Speaker 1: make sure that you don't remember the gas prices are
- 20:44Speaker 1: up two dollars since Biden took office. And we're gonna
- 20:46Speaker 1: blame all of that on one person as well, who
- 20:49Speaker 1: We're gonna blame it on Putin. We've got what we
- 20:51Speaker 1: need to blame Putin for everything. Even MSNBC was actually
- 20:58Speaker 1: praising on TV today the brilliance of Democrats blaming Putin
- 21:03Speaker 1: for the problems that we're having in our economy, and
- 21:07Speaker 1: they also said it's a brilliant distraction, like they're not
- 21:09Speaker 1: even lying about they're just saying, like a great move,
- 21:11Speaker 1: very smart to tell the American people that Putin's the problem,
- 21:14Speaker 1: not Joe Biden. They're openly having this discussion on TV.
- 21:19Speaker 1: Oh and if you think, by the way, that we're
- 21:20Speaker 1: actually trying to fix this problem or really unite the
- 21:23Speaker 1: world against Vladimir Putin, you're wrong. You want to know
- 21:26Speaker 1: what proof I have to show you, Vice President United
- 21:30Speaker 1: it's America's who we sent to go to Warsaw to
- 21:32Speaker 1: speak with our allies. And what did she have to
- 21:35Speaker 1: say about what is happening right now in Ukraine? That
- 21:39Speaker 1: listen to this. This is a real unedited response to
- 21:42Speaker 1: a question about what's happening in Ukraine right now. We
- 21:47Speaker 1: all watched the television coverage of just yesterday. That's on
- 21:54Speaker 1: top of everything else that we know and don't know
- 21:56Speaker 1: yet based on what we've just been able to see.
- 21:59Speaker 1: And because we've seen it or not doesn't mean it
- 22:01Speaker 1: hasn't happened, but just limited to what we have seen,
- 22:09Speaker 1: pregnant women going for healthcare being injured by I don't
- 22:17Speaker 1: know Missila bum, I don't know a missile or a
- 22:20Speaker 1: bamb I don't know. This is not sending our best.
- 22:23Speaker 1: Her exact quote, I'm going to read it for you.
- 22:25Speaker 1: We all watch the television coverage just yesterday. That's on
- 22:30Speaker 1: top of everything else that we know and don't know
- 22:33Speaker 1: yet based on what we've just been able to see.
- 22:37Speaker 1: And because we've seen it or not doesn't mean it
- 22:41Speaker 1: hasn't happened. What in the hell are you talking about?
- 22:49Speaker 1: We are not sending our best. By the way, it's
- 22:52Speaker 1: the same woman that awkwardly starts laughing when asked about
- 22:54Speaker 1: Ukrainian refugee crisis. People are still trying to figure out
- 22:58Speaker 1: what was so funny, Kamala Harry. So we're not sending
- 23:00Speaker 1: our best because we're not actually trying to stop war.
- 23:03Speaker 1: War Three about some reporting that my colleague here in
- 23:06Speaker 1: Poland noticed He recently spoke with the mayor of the
- 23:09Speaker 1: largest border town, who told him that the refugee system
- 23:12Speaker 1: is essentially not set up for this, that it will collapse.
- 23:15Speaker 1: It's an improvised system that can work for maybe two weeks,
- 23:18Speaker 1: but not indefinitely. And I'm wondering what the United States
- 23:21Speaker 1: is going to do more specifically to set up a
- 23:23Speaker 1: permanent infrastructure and Relatedly, is the United States willing to
- 23:27Speaker 1: make a specific allocation for Ukrainian refugees and for President Judah,
- 23:33Speaker 1: I wanted to know if you think and if you
- 23:35Speaker 1: asked the United States to specifically accept more refugees. Okay,
- 23:46Speaker 1: a friend in need is a friend. Indeed, you start
- 23:52Speaker 1: awkwardly laughing when asked about a Ukrainian refugee crisis because
- 23:55Speaker 1: I think you don't know how to answer the question,
- 23:58Speaker 1: and you cackle. We're not sending our best, because we're
- 24:01Speaker 1: not trying to stop this, because I think Democrats actually
- 24:04Speaker 1: understand there is a genuine opportunity here to fundamentally change
- 24:08Speaker 1: this country and blame Putin for it all the way
- 24:11Speaker 1: until the midterms. The White House March tenth their tweet
- 24:16Speaker 1: when we have electric cars powered by clean energy. This
- 24:19Speaker 1: is an actual tweet. We will never have to worry
- 24:21Speaker 1: about gas prices again, and audiocrats like Putin won't be
- 24:25Speaker 1: able to use fossil fuels as weapons against our nations.
- 24:30Speaker 1: They actually tweeted this out, how anyone, how everyone missed it.
- 24:34Speaker 1: They're exploiting this death and destruction of World War three again.
- 24:40Speaker 1: White House as actual words, tweeted out, when we have
- 24:43Speaker 1: electric cars powered by clean energy. We will never have
- 24:46Speaker 1: to worry about gas prices again, won't have to worry
- 24:49Speaker 1: about people like Putin, won't be able to use fossil
- 24:51Speaker 1: fuels as weapons against our nations. So no, we're not
- 24:54Speaker 1: going to fix this problem. We're going to quickly move
- 24:59Speaker 1: forward to make sure that this problem is used to
- 25:02Speaker 1: force you to change the way you're doing things. We're
- 25:07Speaker 1: gonna exploit what is happening to the people in Ukraine,
- 25:12Speaker 1: and we're gonna let him die, and if he moves
- 25:15Speaker 1: on to another place, we'll exploit again, saying, see, we
- 25:17Speaker 1: told you you should have bought an electric car, because
- 25:20Speaker 1: if you don't, you're not trying to help the people out.
- 25:26Speaker 1: As the president on an electric car can't answer that question,
- 25:29Speaker 1: doesn't matter what if he uses chemical weapons? Is that
- 25:33Speaker 1: a thin red line won't answer that question either. In fact,
- 25:36Speaker 1: I would argue right now, there's not a single question
- 25:38Speaker 1: that has substance that they will answer because they don't
- 25:43Speaker 1: want this to end. Revoking Most Favored Nation status from
- 25:48Speaker 1: Russia is not going to stop this war. Okay, saying
- 25:51Speaker 1: no to their vodka is saying no to their fish.
- 25:55Speaker 1: It's not going to stop this war. And I keep
- 26:00Speaker 1: asking this question because it's a question that you should
- 26:02Speaker 1: be asking yourself each and every day. When was the
- 26:05Speaker 1: last time a madman woke up one day and said, Okay,
- 26:09Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna stop? When was the last
- 26:11Speaker 1: time that happened? The Finnished Prime Minister Sonna she was
- 26:16Speaker 1: asked earlier today about what's happening over there and how
- 26:20Speaker 1: concerned she is. This is her response. I think we
- 26:23Speaker 1: have to get rid of Russian fossil fuels as soon
- 26:26Speaker 1: as possible. It's it's a very difficult situation that in
- 26:31Speaker 1: one hand we have these financial sanctions that are very hard,
- 26:34Speaker 1: but in the other hand, we are supporting and actually
- 26:37Speaker 1: financing Russia's war, purchasing oil and gas another fossil fuels
- 26:43Speaker 1: from Russia. So the situation isn't a very good one,
- 26:47Speaker 1: and we have to get rid of the fossil fuels
- 26:49Speaker 1: coming from Russia as soon as possible. The condition. By
- 26:52Speaker 1: the way, the rest of the world seems to be
- 26:53Speaker 1: waking up to this, understanding what she just said. The
- 26:57Speaker 1: rest of the world is understanding what we need to
- 26:59Speaker 1: do right now, and they're understanding that we need to
- 27:01Speaker 1: do it quickly and America is not doing anything quickly
- 27:04Speaker 1: because they don't mind this happening. They don't care if
- 27:07Speaker 1: people die. How do I know that. I know it
- 27:10Speaker 1: because I watched and witnessed what this administration, what Democrats
- 27:15Speaker 1: did when we were leaving Afghanistan. They don't care for
- 27:18Speaker 1: Americans die. They didn't care that our American soldiers died. Hell,
- 27:21Speaker 1: the guy was looking at his watch, Joe Biden, when
- 27:23Speaker 1: he was when accepting the bodies back of Americans who
- 27:26Speaker 1: died in that explosion at that airport in Afghanistan. We
- 27:32Speaker 1: left people behind to be slaughtered. This administration doesn't care.
- 27:37Speaker 1: But you notice how these other nations are starting to
- 27:40Speaker 1: talk with much more urgency because they're understanding what I've
- 27:43Speaker 1: been warning you about now for days. Something has changed
- 27:46Speaker 1: with Vladimir Putin. This is not the guy of a
- 27:48Speaker 1: year ago. So if you're Finland right now, yeah, i'd
- 27:52Speaker 1: be scared. If I was Sweden right now, I'd be scared.
- 27:55Speaker 1: If I was Norway right now, I'd be scared. Not
- 27:56Speaker 1: because I'm Paranoi, but for good reason, because I think
- 27:59Speaker 1: that Russia's said, hey, guys, we've started World War three.
- 28:01Speaker 1: You guys are just too stupid to understand it. If
- 28:04Speaker 1: I lived in Estonia, I'd be terrified. If I lived
- 28:06Speaker 1: in Lafia, I'd be terrified. If I lived in Lithuania,
- 28:09Speaker 1: especially with belarus Is doing it, I'd be terrified. If
- 28:15Speaker 1: I was in Poland, I would be terrified. If I
- 28:18Speaker 1: was in Ukraine, I would be beyond terrified. Moldova, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, Bulgaria, Czechsnia,
- 28:30Speaker 1: all of these places right now you should be terrified.
- 28:32Speaker 1: Germany you're idiots. Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium you're morons. France, you're morons.
- 28:38Speaker 1: You're buying this oil from this guy, and he's coming
- 28:41Speaker 1: towards you with his tanks and with his army, and
- 28:44Speaker 1: you're too stupid to understand it, and you keep giving
- 28:46Speaker 1: him the money he needs to keep moving forward with
- 28:48Speaker 1: this war. I was asked to speak at a event
- 28:56Speaker 1: in Hungary, and if you look at Hungry, Hungry years
- 29:00Speaker 1: a border with Ukraine, and we know what's happening, and
- 29:02Speaker 1: they had to delay this event, and they may delay
- 29:05Speaker 1: it again, and I will probably go to Hungary because
- 29:09Speaker 1: I think the people in that part of the world
- 29:11Speaker 1: needs to know that America stands with him. For what
- 29:12Speaker 1: they are up against right now with Russia and Moscow.
- 29:16Speaker 1: They need to understand. And if you look at what
- 29:18Speaker 1: this what Putin is trying to do right now, notice
- 29:20Speaker 1: where he's going. He's going to the West to areas
- 29:24Speaker 1: that have value. He's not going to places like Kagistan
- 29:27Speaker 1: or Uzbekistan, right He's not going to Afghanistan or or
- 29:32Speaker 1: Georgia or are these areas per se. He's going back
- 29:37Speaker 1: to the old USSR because he sees value there. And
- 29:42Speaker 1: our president is pretty much saying, let him keep doing it,
- 29:45Speaker 1: because we've got to have something. In the Democratic Party
- 29:47Speaker 1: I think is saying let him keep doing let him
- 29:49Speaker 1: keep doing this, because the more he does it, the
- 29:53Speaker 1: more we get to blame him for stuff that we've
- 29:54Speaker 1: screwed up in our own country, and we can say
- 29:56Speaker 1: everything is the is the problem Vladimir Putin. You know,
- 30:04Speaker 1: Jen Psaki just doubled down on not sending jets to Ukraine.
- 30:07Speaker 1: Why is she doing this? Because I really don't think
- 30:10Speaker 1: they mind if Ukraine falls. If you wanted to stop
- 30:15Speaker 1: what's happening in Ukraine and you'd be doing it differently.
- 30:18Speaker 1: I don't think they're this stupid either, you know, there's
- 30:21Speaker 1: some people that say they're incompetent. No, I think this
- 30:23Speaker 1: is purposeful. I think this is being done deliberately. I
- 30:28Speaker 1: really do. I think that they're looking at this and
- 30:31Speaker 1: they're saying, this is a great opportunity for us in
- 30:33Speaker 1: America to blame all of what we've screwed up in
- 30:36Speaker 1: the first year on him, and we'll use it for
- 30:38Speaker 1: the midterms, which might save us from the blood bath
- 30:41Speaker 1: of the midterms. First and foremost, and number two, we
- 30:47Speaker 1: get to implement some of our policies with a Green
- 30:48Speaker 1: New Deal because of what's happening right now with gas prices.
- 30:52Speaker 1: They are not trying to fix this. They're going to
- 30:54Speaker 1: exploit it. And if a bunch of people get thrown
- 30:57Speaker 1: into mass graves, I really think their rentality is so
- 31:00Speaker 1: be it. This is an opportunity for them, That is
- 31:06Speaker 1: how they see it, and they are going to continue
- 31:10Speaker 1: to move forward with this opportunity. Most Favored Nation status
- 31:17Speaker 1: being pulled down doesn't mean anything to Russia today watches
- 31:23Speaker 1: this continues to play out. Folks, you know we're not
- 31:27Speaker 1: serious about fighting Vladimir Putin when we actually come out
- 31:32Speaker 1: with individual names of oligarks that we're gonna really target
- 31:36Speaker 1: We're not playing at the same level the other side's playing.
- 31:39Speaker 1: I don't care about the yachts and I don't care
- 31:41Speaker 1: about the oligarks. I care about stopping a nation. It's
- 31:44Speaker 1: trying to take back over all of what used to
- 31:47Speaker 1: be the USSR. And what are we sitting here, Well,
- 31:49Speaker 1: we're sitting here. We're going to step up the pressure
- 31:51Speaker 1: on corrupt Russian billionaires. Vladimir Putin doesn't care. We're not
- 31:57Speaker 1: playing at the same level of the game they're playing.
- 31:59Speaker 1: We're child's played down here. It's almost like we are
- 32:02Speaker 1: and I'll say it again, purposely trying to allow Putin
- 32:06Speaker 1: to keep going. So taking a further step abandoning imports
- 32:10Speaker 1: of goods from several signature sectors of the Russian economy,
- 32:13Speaker 1: including seafoods, vodka, and diamonds. And we're going to continue
- 32:17Speaker 1: to squeeze Putin. The G seven will seek to deny
- 32:20Speaker 1: Russian the ability to borrow from leading multinational institutions such
- 32:24Speaker 1: as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. By
- 32:28Speaker 1: the way, the sluring of the words is getting worse.
- 32:30Speaker 1: I just want to say that on the record, keep
- 32:32Speaker 1: listening is an aggressor, is the aggressor, and Putin must
- 32:37Speaker 1: pay the price. He cannot pursue a war that threatens
- 32:41Speaker 1: the very foundations which he's doing, the very foundations of
- 32:44Speaker 1: international piece and stability, and then ask for financial help
- 32:48Speaker 1: from the international community. The G seven is also stepping
- 32:52Speaker 1: up pressure on corrupt Russian billionaires. We're adding new names
- 32:56Speaker 1: to the list of oligarchs and their families that we're targeting,
- 33:00Speaker 1: and we're increasing coordination among the G seven countries to
- 33:03Speaker 1: target and capture their ill begotten gains. They support Putin,
- 33:08Speaker 1: they steal from the Russian people, and they seek to
- 33:12Speaker 1: hide their money in our countries. They're part of that
- 33:15Speaker 1: kleptocracy that exist in Moscow, and they must share in
- 33:19Speaker 1: the pain of these sanctions. And while we're going after
- 33:24Speaker 1: these suit their super yachts in their vacation homes and
- 33:28Speaker 1: worth hundreds of million millions of dollars, we're also going
- 33:32Speaker 1: to make it harder for them to buy high end
- 33:34Speaker 1: products manufacture in our country. We're banning the export of
- 33:38Speaker 1: luxury goods to Russia. They're also the latest steps we're taking,
- 33:42Speaker 1: but they're not the last steps we're going to take.
- 33:45Speaker 1: And as I said at the beginning, of all these steps,
- 33:48Speaker 1: we're gonna hit Putin harder because the United States and
- 33:50Speaker 1: our closest allies and partners are acting in unison the
- 33:55Speaker 1: totality of our sank I just I just had to say,
- 33:58Speaker 1: this is child's ban on Russian alcohol, seafood, and diamonds.
- 34:03Speaker 1: They don't give a crap. We're not playing this to
- 34:07Speaker 1: even act like we're winning. We're just playing it to
- 34:09Speaker 1: allow him to continue to do what he's doing. And
- 34:11Speaker 1: you have to start asking yourself the question, why why
- 34:15Speaker 1: are we getting it so? Why? Why why has this
- 34:19Speaker 1: become such an an embarrassment for us? Because they're doing
- 34:23Speaker 1: it on purpose. They don't want him to stop. We
- 34:30Speaker 1: need Vladimir Putin or the Bidens do the Biden administration
- 34:34Speaker 1: to justify their horrific, they're horrific policies in this country.
- 34:42Speaker 1: They need a cover story, and he's the guy. I
- 34:48Speaker 1: hope you'll share this podcast with your family and friends.
- 34:51Speaker 1: Hit that share button, hit that auto download or subscribe button,
- 34:55Speaker 1: and I'll see it back here tomorrow
