0:00This is an iHeart Podcast.

0:02Guaranteed human. Welcome to the Tudor Dixon podcast.

0:07Well, this year has brought many military operations, and I think to some people's surprise,

0:13we've had more military operations than we expected.

0:16Everything from Venezuela to Iran.

0:18And the president is now saying that the war in Iran is over, but it's

0:22sort of confusing because we're obviously still in the midst of operations there.

0:26So I wanted to take a deeper dive into this operation, Operation Epic Fury, and

0:32Operation Absolute Resolve that led to the capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro.

0:38And we were like, who could we possibly really dive into this with?

0:42So I'm pleased to announce that I'm joined by the man who killed Osama bin

0:47Laden, Robert O 'Neill. Robert is a Navy SEAL who completed over 400 combat missions

0:53and served for 16 years.

0:55Robert, thank you for joining me.

0:56Thanks for having me, Tudor.

0:57It's great to be with you.

0:58You have done this before.

1:00I mean, when I've listened to you talk about your mission and the intelligence that

1:05went into the mission to take Osama bin Laden, and I just, I can't imagine

1:10the nerves and the overwhelming planning that goes into this.

1:16But I saw what we saw on the news, which I take with a grain

1:20of salt, but we saw what happened with Maduro.

1:23And it felt like that looked easy for our military, which I know it's not.

1:29So how does that happen?

1:30So how does that come off like that?

1:33I mean, that mission was incredible.

1:35I obviously wasn't involved in that.

1:37I was jealous when I found out about it because that's, I mean, that's something

1:41that, well, I would reenlist for if I knew that was happening.

1:43But when it happened to just the, I couldn't, I mean, with the professional courtesy

1:49jealousy, the pride I felt, I couldn't smack the smile off my face for at

1:53least 48 hours watching what everyone did from Space Force right to Delta Force.

1:58The pilots going in, all kinds of the diversions, everything from false insurances to hitting

2:03them from 60 ,000 feet with stealth bombers and then going below 10 ,000 with

2:06conventional sort of jets to go supersonic, drop some, all kinds of stuff, direct energy

2:11weapons possibly. And then, and then to talk it all off, you got Delta Force

2:15running at you. Why people shot at them blows my mind.

2:18I mean, the story of the pilots flight lead getting a medal of honor for

2:21getting hit with anti -air fire, which is insane, flying the mission, returning them home.

2:26Everything is part, I mean, and it's just, it's a, it's, that wasn't just to

2:30get Maduro. That's, that's the geopolitical shift of the entire world.

2:33You're, you're, because the big game is China, China taking Taiwan because of the chips,

2:39because of AI and that's World War V or World War IV at least.

2:44And, and so that, that's just not there because they're getting a lot of their

2:46fuel, gas, all that stuff from Venezuela, also Iran.

2:50So then there's the islands off of Venezuela that being used by Hezbollah, by Iran,

2:54by everyone from Russia to China.

2:55But it was, you know, Russian and Chinese air defense.

2:57We crushed them, proved we could crush them because we're dealing with the commander in

3:00chief who honestly doesn't really care about the midterms.

3:03I mean, yeah, he's going to push because he knows the Democrats are crazy.

3:07So he needs Republicans in there, but he's, he's fighting this war right now for

3:12his grandchildren and his grandchildren's kids.

3:14Like this, this is a move to keep the world stable.

3:17Donald Trump cares about his legacy, cares about his family.

3:19Iran, through the negotiations that he tried and he's trying to negotiate with everyone, basically

3:23put a thumb in his eye and said, no, we're going to keep enriching Iran

3:25and there's nothing you can do about it.

3:27So, and he gave him a chance and now with Donald Trump, because he's not

3:30a real politician, he's going to beat them until they quit.

3:32That's what's happening. So it's very interesting that you say that because so many of

3:37the things you just said, I kind of want to pick apart because I don't

3:40think people connected Venezuela to China the way you just did.

3:43And we've talked about that before, that this was, this, this was a geopolitical move.

3:49China has connected with Iran.

3:51They've connected with Latin America.

3:53They have ports there. They are ready to take over.

3:56They want to be the world leader and they would be a very dark and

4:00evil world leader. And they, they, they saw a weakness in the United States with

4:04Joe Biden and just in general.

4:06And I don't think we can even lighten it up to just Joe Biden because

4:11it is a disruption amongst our parties right now.

4:15There are disruptors in the United States.

4:18You see these groups like Code Pink and these people that have a new flag

4:21every week and they're protesting and they have all the money to do that.

4:25But these disruptors come from the CCP.

4:28Well, yeah. I mean, the CCP has been mad since the opium wars.

4:31What's that? The 19th century, 18th century.

4:34I mean, they've been mad about that for a long, long time when the West

4:37introduced opium. They, they've been like, even in Vietnam, when heroin for GIs in Vietnam

4:42was like five cents on the dollar because China's pushing in there for the exact

4:45reason that happened, just to try to weaken the United States.

4:48And then they came here with fentanyl.

4:48They're doing fentanyl at the border and they're killing almost twice as many people a

4:52year than we lost in the Vietnam War.

4:54It's been China the whole time.

4:54They're doing the fentanyl. They're doing everything they want.

4:56They want. They've told us before.

4:58We just don't listen. We dumbed down our schools because of the communists again.

5:02And this is a big push.

5:03We don't need Venezuela's oil.

5:05We don't need Iran's oil.

5:06They do mix nicely, though, because it's the heavy sludge in Venezuela that really can't

5:10even be moved through pipes.

5:11But if you dilute it with Iranian oil, it works out nicely.

5:13Not that we need it.

5:14But, you know, we want people not to have it.

5:16These are big moves, big pushes.

5:17And he just needs Donald Trump knows and the smart people he's put around him

5:21know it needs to happen.

5:22before the midterms. I mean, Tudor, imagine if the Democrats take even the House.

5:26What's going to happen? Impeach, impeach, impeach, impeach.

5:28Nothing about the country. All about impeach.

5:30All about the Democrat Party with their party.

5:33They love their party so much because with their party comes their power.

5:36With their power comes the corruption.

5:38With their corruption comes their personal money.

5:39It's really so easy if people don't yell at each other and argue on TikTok,

5:43if they take a step back and just look.

5:46And like the way that I put it to people is how would you respond

5:50if no one's watching you?

5:51You know what's right and what's wrong.

5:53It's not hard. Now, when the when the paid agitators on the left start, everything

5:57from Boston was built by Somalis and crap like that in school.

6:02And if you if you seriously take a step back, go line by line, the

6:06ridiculous shit we're supposed to believe.

6:08It's nonsense. And then and I've been I'm not a victim, but I've been in

6:12a spot where if I tell the truth, I'll get in trouble because I offend

6:15a bunch of stupid people.

6:16That's basically. I mean, if you believe them, I can't vote.

6:21That's what they're saying today.

6:22Like women can't get IDs.

6:24It used to be minorities can't get IDs.

6:27Now they're going to not only offend minorities, but they're going to offend all the

6:31women, too. So half the country is too stupid to go get an ID.

6:35And and they're legitimately winning people over with this argument.

6:39That's what is so dangerous to me.

6:41But you said something earlier that they're also winning people over with the argument that

6:45Iran was not a was not at all a threat that this is.

6:50Oh, we've heard this for 47 years.

6:52But when they were in power, they were clearly stating they are a threat.

6:56Obama had even said, really, if they can enrich to 90 percent uranium, then they

7:02are we are within minutes of having a nuclear bomb come at us from Iran

7:07and they can reach Western or they can reach Eastern Europe.

7:10They're going to bomb the Middle East.

7:12And the Middle Eastern countries found out these past few weeks that they are not

7:17immune to Iran's attacks. They have decided to bomb everybody that they can reach.

7:22So now we know that there are no limits.

7:24If they can reach you with a ballistic missile, they absolutely will.

7:28And you are 100 percent right that they have never said they will stop enriching.

7:32And they have they have the mines and they have the centrifuges and they have

7:36the capabilities to do it.

7:38Mm hmm. Yeah, they certainly do.

7:40And they I it's just odd that we are at a spot where I'm a

7:44big believer when the enemy tells me their plan.

7:46I believe that. I mean, I mean, at worst, you just prepare for something you're

7:50ready for because even if you're prepared, it's usually something else that hits you.

7:54So it's it's you make a mistake here.

7:56Don't concentrate on that because over here they're going to get you.

7:58And that's all that's happening.

7:59But there's nothing wrong with being prepared.

8:01But the destabilization is what they want.

8:03They're going to bomb their Sunni Arab neighbors because there's you know, Iran is technically

8:07Shia, even though they're Persian and Islam is not their original religion.

8:10The destabilization everywhere, bringing in all the I mean, when I think Minnesota in the

8:18winter, I definitely think East Africa.

8:20So let's ship millions of them there.

8:22This is all destabilization. And again, what does it come back to?

8:24Why? Why are there so many mosques in Muslim cities being built in Texas?

8:27Turn them blue. It's chaos.

8:29Why the open borders chaos?

8:30Why? Because they can get the cheaters, the illegals to vote for the Democrats.

8:34That's all they care about.

8:35That's it. Party politics above anything.

8:37We're seeing Donald Trump, anything he goes up with the Democrats, except for John Fetterman,

8:41are vehemently against. And it's and they've got people so backwards on.

8:46Well, it's for defending democracy when they don't even know what democracy is.

8:49They don't know constitutional republic.

8:51You have a representative for it.

8:54I'm not going to explain politics to you.

8:55You know, better than I do.

8:56But if they you're only the level of the preparedness that got you there.

9:00And if the public school system makes us this dumb that I'm not I can't

9:05even talk people out of it.

9:06You said something that I I can never imagine a Democrat saying when we talked

9:11about the the Maduro operation, we talked about going in and getting the Venezuelan dictator.

9:18You you were like, I wanted to do that.

9:20I would reenlist to do that.

9:22And I thought that is incredible because of what you've been through and what you've

9:26seen. And I know you've seen really hard things, much harder things than I'll ever

9:30see in my life. And and you still said I would do that for my

9:34country. I would go back for my country.

9:36That is not something we hear on the left.

9:38Oh, no. I remember in the the last Democratic convention when they were trying to

9:44put up American flags and chant USA.

9:46And it's really hard to put up an American flag when you're doing it with

9:49one hand because you're holding your nose with the other.

9:51That's what Democrats think of the USA chant.

9:53But they they try that stuff and it just doesn't quite work.

9:56And you get veterans even in politics, the Democrat Party, Mark Kelly.

9:59You can you can refuse unlawful orders.

10:02Bullshit. And he should get in trouble for that.

10:04That's nonsense. It's just. But on the other side, it I want to go because

10:10I want to be with the guys to do what's right for the country, for

10:13my way of life, for my kids and their kids.

10:15And that's just the way we think.

10:16And here I mean, here's a here's a hot take no one ever brings up.

10:19When Barack Obama, a Democrat, was in charge of a no fail mission to get

10:24the number one terrorist probably in the history of the world.

10:27He sent 23 conservatives. Let's be honest.

10:31He sent guys based on the most extreme merit, the most extreme level of no

10:37fail. They were all conservatives.

10:39We didn't we didn't have time for DEI at that point.

10:41We got to do this right.

10:42Send the guys that are here because they belong here.

10:45It's like, again, that's just the truth.

10:48If I'm not going to say the roster of the guy.

10:50But we all had a lot in common and we all had the same views

10:52in common. And what comes with that?

10:53I remember talking about going after Bin Laden.

10:56This is probably going to be it.

10:57But what a way to go.

10:59I'm with the guys I love.

11:00I'm not afraid. I'm prepared.

11:01I accept this. I'm ready.

11:03And then and just on that mission, I'm like, I said goodbye to my kids.

11:06My daughter that was just here was three at the time.

11:09And I couldn't tell her we were going after Bin Laden.

11:11And I think I'm going to die.

11:12She just went and got a carry on a Hello Kitty carry on, put an

11:15elephant, a Mr. Elephant and a pillow in it and said, take me on vacation

11:18when you get home, as well as a three year old can.

11:20But we were so for this country, for what we did, for what happened on

11:249 -11. I want to go.

11:25He's going to die even if I die.

11:26What a way. What an ending.

11:28And and then just and then now look at New York.

11:31We're having called a prayer in the mayor's office.

11:33You know what? New York forgot to never forget.

11:35Let's take a quick commercial break.

11:37We'll continue next on the Tudor Dixon podcast.

11:42You know, it's interesting because I was just back in my hometown.

11:46I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and I was asked to speak there

11:50recently. And I went back and I was asking people, you know, what are the

11:53politics of my town? Because I've watched my friends on social media that I went

11:58to high school with and they've become more and more liberal.

12:00And they said, oh, it's totally lost.

12:02It went just in the last few years.

12:04It went from fully red to fully blue.

12:07And I was thinking about this and I got up.

12:09And when I spoke, I said, you know, I I'm heart sick about this.

12:14And I think, how did it happen that we became these?

12:17Right. And and it's not blue.

12:18It's not the blue from when I grew up.

12:21It's like these radical white privilege is everybody's.

12:27So all white people are bad.

12:28They the liberal white woman who's ranting about everything.

12:31That is the the liberalism that has overtaken my hometown.

12:35And I said, I wondered, like, this must have been us because I it wasn't

12:40like this when I was a kid.

12:41So it must have been my generation.

12:43And I said, then I started thinking about high school and we had a class

12:46instead of American history. I took comparative religions.

12:49And I said, you know what the one religion was that we didn't compare?

12:53We didn't compare Christianity at all.

12:55We learned all the other religions we didn't compare.

12:58I said, so I've decided it's not my generation's fault.

13:01It's my parents' generation's fault that went into the schools and started this.

13:05There was an active, an active mission to go into our schools and liberalize the

13:11youth. Yeah, that's I mean, it comes with, again, the destabilization of the country.

13:18And that starts, believe it or not, with the hyphen.

13:20Look, watch when the hyphens start, when, you know, when when Kathy Jones becomes Kathy

13:25Jones Smith, when that American becomes an Asian American, an African American.

13:29That's the division. It's simple.

13:31It's it's when you tell the woman, hey, you don't need a family.

13:34You need a career. You need to be a girl boss.

13:36And then and that's great.

13:38Go to happy hour. Have a successful career.

13:40All of a sudden, when you're 55 with no kids, like it or not, with

13:43science, women are maternal and they have an instinct to love something.

13:47They don't have a kid to love.

13:48Now they got to love something and they love it like a woman loves their

13:51kids. So the illegals become what they got to die for.

13:53Seriously, this is what happens when you're watching it.

13:55And I wish you could.

13:56I mean, yeah, you're a girl boss.

13:58That's awesome. Just wait for the day, though, when you're buried by a stranger in

14:01a in a in an empty field here.

14:03Here lies Catherine Jones Smith.

14:04She worked really hard. But it's not even that you're told now.

14:09I think it's gone to even a greater extreme because, you know, I come from

14:12the generation that watched Sex and the City.

14:15And it was like, you know, get it, have a career and be your own

14:18woman. And you don't need a husband.

14:20You can be the guy that sleeps around.

14:22You can be just like that.

14:24But now it's if you have a kid, it will ruin your life.

14:29I mean, now it's the next extreme.

14:30The messaging that I hear to young women today breaks my heart because I will

14:36tell you, I waited until I was 32 to have kids.

14:38And I remember coming home with my first daughter, sitting in the rocking chair with

14:43her, doing the math and going, what if I'm not rocking your kids and thinking

14:47I should have done this earlier.

14:49I was I was married when I was 24.

14:51Why didn't I have kids earlier?

14:53You know, it's like this is this is what I meant to do.

14:56You realize it when you hold that baby in your arms.

14:59Yeah, I and I agree.

15:01And again, I before we started recording, I was saying I talked about how amazing

15:04mothers are and my wife's I love it.

15:06I can't compare myself to that.

15:08It's just it's kind of, you know, what I'm seeing.

15:10But when it when it gets the nuclear family torn apart, because when I get

15:15asked about with sleeper cells now, what should we do to prepare?

15:18My first answer is the nuclear family.

15:20You take care of your family at home.

15:21And that also means you know your neighbors really well.

15:23You get to know your local first responders, the firefighters and the cops and your

15:28school boards and stuff like that.

15:29You know, because I mean, to look further down the line in a tactical mind,

15:32when the hit comes, it's not going to be the initial hit that kills a

15:35lot of people. They will.

15:36The secondary and tertiary, because they're going to come dressed as first responders.

15:40If you know your first responders, it's not a problem.

15:42But if you see a bunch of fighting age males that look like they might

15:44be from Syria, here comes your second explosion.

15:46That's what ISIS is doing.

15:47And thank goodness they had four years of open borders to completely get thousands of

15:51them in here. I mean, right now we're at a point with some of the

15:53Iranians. We we kind of need to lean toward maybe they'll click in their heads

15:59like, look, the regime is falling.

16:00I'm in the States. I'm just going to live here.

16:02Maybe. But there are the hardliners, the 12ers that know.

16:05I mean, that know once they blow themselves up to fight in the infidels, they

16:08go to paradise. And if you notice, their paradise is a lot different from Christians.

16:11Like we go there to be with Jesus in heaven.

16:14They go to a brothel.

16:15Right. All right. And those 70.

16:18Two innocent women. Where did they come from?

16:19That's a pretty messed up religion, if you ask me.

16:22Exactly. Well, so speaking of that, though, what do you think about this attack on

16:27Gracie Manchin? We saw over this past weekend that these two young guys and their

16:31parents were immigrants here. They were they were cleared as becoming American citizens.

16:38These kids were born here.

16:39They're American citizens. They somehow got radicalized by ISIS and they're trying to bomb the

16:45New York City mayor's office or home.

16:48And and people, I think, are going, oh, wait a minute.

16:52What is the purpose of going after him?

16:54Like, how does how does that happen?

16:57Well, I mean, you start throwing jihadis in the in the America soup.

17:01You're going to in the America omelet, you're going to break some eggs, I guess

17:05what I'm trying to say.

17:06You're bringing these kids here.

17:07Just we're going to make it.

17:07Like an ISIS inspired American born jihadi through an improvised explosive device over a white

17:14liberal man, a beta male who's still sorry he's white and in New York and

17:18all are welcome. I mean, this is exactly what we said to never forget.

17:25Right. Exactly. Exactly. And that, I think, is the thing that people are going, how

17:30did we get here where we are apologizing for being American?

17:34And you talked about the importance of the flag.

17:37And that is something that even as a kid, you know, we said the the

17:41pledge every day. And there was never a time when I didn't think the flag

17:45was sacred, that we honored the flag, that the flag had such great meaning.

17:49And yet overheard in one of the Democrat campaigns recently, they put the flags up

17:54behind their candidate. And someone said, oh, there's birds above the flag and they are

17:59pooping on the flag. And the the staffer said, good.

18:04Yeah, I'm I'm I'm not familiar with that, but it doesn't surprise me at all.

18:08It just it turned in when we started saying that the land was stolen and

18:13that the white men are oppressors.

18:15I mean, we started teaching that in the school.

18:16I mean, even see it in like movies like Days and Confused and they go

18:18out for the summer and the kids are worried about getting paddled by the upcoming

18:21seniors. You can hear the teacher in the movie, you know, and nothing to Hollywood,

18:25but just don't forget that when you're celebrating the Fourth of July, it was taking

18:28the global bond, the slavery and all.

18:29And then they started this a long time ago.

18:31And it's just the communists also playing the long game.

18:34They admitted they're going to infiltrate our schools and our media and they're going to

18:37infiltrate our politics. And they have you.

18:38You see that we have communists in office.

18:42We have Al -Shabaab supporters, if not Al -Shabaab themselves and Hamas in our Congress,

18:47because we bring these people in.

18:49They don't assimilate. They're not legal.

18:50They still vote because Democrats want power.

18:52It's a repeating cycle. And I mean, it's almost comical if it wasn't so tragic.

18:56So how do you how do you get the message across about the importance of

19:00this operation in Iran? I mean, when you talk about the media, we just had

19:04Abby Phillips on CNN refer to the man who threw the IED as or the

19:09young man who threw the IED as an activist and not a terrorist.

19:13I mean, this is an ISIS inspired terrorist.

19:16This is a terror attack.

19:17And she refers to him as an activist and goes after the Republicans.

19:21This is the media has been totally co -opted by the Democrat Party.

19:26They are they are one in the same.

19:28I was saying the other day we had one of our local reporters who had

19:33there was a Democrat running for Senate.

19:35And she said that she was she made a nasty comment about the Republican.

19:39He simply tweeted the quote and said her name.

19:43Nothing else. No story to go along with it.

19:45This is the Detroit news that should have credibility as a real news source.

19:51And they're quoting Democrats attack on Republicans.

19:55And that's it. And tweeting it out.

19:56I'm like, is this like is this an in -kind donation?

20:00What is this? Well, this is what I think is they've been so ridiculous on

20:06so many points. They have to be all in now.

20:08They have got to back it all the time.

20:11I mean, even as far as think of the celebrities that have out of four

20:14kids, three are transgender. Guess what?

20:16You own that. It's mathematically impossible.

20:18But you are such a seeker of the approval of the moral class.

20:23You you just did that.

20:25And now you have to back it no matter what happens to the kids.

20:27And they're not going to be happy forever.

20:29You have to be pro -trans because you did that.

20:31And they're just doing it with everything there.

20:33They're so all in on so many bad bets that they have they have to

20:36keep up with it just to keep their power.

20:38It's a it's a self -flicking ice cream cone for sure.

20:41So what is the future?

20:42Sure. We on when you look at the Iran situation, obviously, you are more familiar

20:46with these kinds of operations than probably most of us who are listening to this

20:51podcast right now. So when you see this operation way different than Venezuela, we were

20:56told from the beginning that if we went into Iran, it would be a different

20:59situation because the the forces there are very deep.

21:04They have, what, 130 ,000 officers there.

21:09They had a deep bench of people who could go move in and continue to

21:13lead the mullahs. What is the strategy from your perspective on how you can actually

21:19win a war with Iran?

21:21Taking out the leadership like they did and their ability to enrich uranium.

21:25And then you needed to rise up from the from the inside.

21:28It happened this summer when we bombed the nuclear sites and then the soft coup

21:32started. But, you know, they've been in there 47 years.

21:34So you need to get the infrastructure out.

21:36They're getting hit hard. Their responses are the stockpiles and the Ayatollahs they have left.

21:41And they're going to keep doing that because when you when you figure they're launching

21:45these missiles, they being. Hezbollah, Iran, and whomever else, they're not like we are right

21:49now in a studio or watching on television.

21:51They're getting hit with stuff, and it's crappy life, and they're thinking heaven, the afterlife.

21:54So they're launching what they have left.

21:56We're in such a luxury, we claim we're poor, but we'll go out and spend

22:01$8 on a coffee as we're looking at our phone and get into our Escalade

22:04type stuff. So we sit here and watch it, we critique it.

22:06But this is real. We liked the 24 -hour news cycle and instant gratification.

22:10You're not going to get it with this.

22:11It's going to end. Prices are going to go down on pretty much everything.

22:13The market's going to go up in You'll notice that Vladimir Putin's trying to get

22:18back to the negotiating table.

22:19That's because we also destroyed the factories that bring the drones in, and then China's

22:23there. I mean, people in Taiwan are happy.

22:25We've delayed that by a few years at the very least, and we're still going

22:28because that's the ultimate goal is to stop China's aggression.

22:31How do you mean we have delayed that because of their support for Iran, and

22:36now this is... No, just because they're going to need gas to invade an island,

22:40and we took away their gas.

22:41Interesting. Let's take a quick commercial break.

22:44We'll continue next on the Tudor Dixon podcast.

22:49So give us the whole geopolitical connection here with Russia, China, and Iran and how

22:57this affects going forward. We're trying to keep the Chinese, the Russians, and the Iranians...

23:01Well, not the Iranians so much, but their proxies out of the Western Hemisphere.

23:05That's why we're pushing for Greenland.

23:06It's a deterrent for a nuclear launch, which God help us.

23:11I'd never want to see that.

23:12Taking their oil... I mean, little things like China was taking the Panama Canal because

23:17of the crappy deal that Carter had to give it back, but we gave it

23:21to BlackRock or they bought it, which is still whatever.

23:24The global policy is right there, but it's not China.

23:27They're not able to come through both sides.

23:28We own both ends. Taking them just completely out of the...

23:30Taking their oil away, taking their drones away, taking their proxies away.

23:35China hasn't done them any favors with the one -child policy because everyone's having a

23:39male. Now, they're not going to be able to help out their senior citizens.

23:43Not that they care. They're probably going to handle that in a way that Bill

23:45Gates was like, but this is a whole bag of cats.

23:48There's so much going on, though.

23:50It's almost easier with the whole you'll own nothing and be happy.

23:52If people don't really know what's actually going on everywhere and just assume they'll be

23:56safe, it might be better, myself included.

23:58You brought up they want to be able to launch a nuclear weapon.

24:02They had ports. China still has three ports in South America.

24:09That's coming really close to the United States.

24:11Not close enough yet, but they're getting to the point where they could launch at

24:15the United States. Is that an ongoing concern?

24:19Is that something that the American public has been very spoiled with not considering an

24:23attack? Yeah, the American public has been very spoiled with the Pacific and the Atlantic,

24:29but now it's here. And South America, yes, we've had intel there.

24:34We've had good intel there for a while.

24:35That's why Maduro was so quick.

24:36The one right now we're squeezing is Cuba.

24:38And Cuba's about done. They're doing what they do just by choke points everywhere.

24:43They have no power, all that stuff, too.

24:44So once we get Cuba, that's going to be good.

24:46Concentrate on it. But getting Cuba and then isolating Mexico.

24:49This is a Western Hemisphere move.

24:51And if you look at it, we're pushing the bad players out.

24:54I mean, even to include NATO, they're going away to there.

24:57We're proving that NATO is pretty much you.

24:59So we did it with Lloyd's of London with the UK.

25:01I don't know what they were thinking, but now we have a new insurance company

25:03that the US Navy is backing, which is great and potentially making new alliances.

25:07I mean, we're not married to NATO.

25:09I don't know why the UN is still in New York.

25:11That's really good property. But I mean, at the very least, we can make it

25:13a homeless camp because they're already out in the streets.

25:15Little things that we can do.

25:16But all these players that have been taking our money, all the fraud that we

25:19see, bad -mouthing America, living on American soil, taking our per diem, political asylum, all

25:24that crap is going away because, again, Donald Trump's not a politician.

25:27He's a Republican because you need to be a Republican or a Democrat to be

25:31a serious contender. But I mean, it's a lot of big moves and a lot

25:34of, not a lot of time, but guys like Scott Besson are in there, which

25:38is an odd one too.

25:39The highest ranking, closest to the White House, openly gay man, and you think the

25:43left would love him, but they're proving it's all politics.

25:46It's not anything they back.

25:47It's just when they stand power.

25:49So on Cuba, is that a diplomatic negotiation or is that also a military operation?

25:56No, it's just cutting them off so they don't have power.

25:57And again, a coup inside.

25:58You need to get them inside.

25:59We can't do the invade Iraq because, you know, the president has a problem with

26:03the president of that country and we'll just take them all down and, you know,

26:07they'll rise up. No, you keep it in.

26:09We should have kept the Ba 'ath Party in structure and they can run it.

26:12We'll just do the same here.

26:13Cut them off. And then, you know, as soon as we can, I'm going to

26:16start buying land in Cuba.

26:17We're going to own that soon.

26:18Everybody I talked to is like, I can't wait until we can go to Cuba

26:21and Cuba is normal again.

26:23OK, so I just want to end this by going through what you just said

26:28about South America, because we had we had Central America and South America.

26:36We had President or Vice President, Vice President Harris, when she was vice president, she

26:42became the border czar and she was supposed to actually go to the Central American

26:48and Latin American countries or South American countries and talk to them about this whole

26:53like she was going to find the root cause of the problems.

26:57And I think that between Argentina and that change in leadership there and what we're

27:02seeing in Mexico, what you just mentioned in Mexico, obviously Venezuela, that is really going

27:09toward the root cause of this mass immigration because people are trying to.

27:13get away from these poor countries.

27:14And I heard so many Democrats for such a long time say, there's no way

27:18we can't go there. It's filled with crime.

27:20They need to be on their own.

27:22We'll just send them money instead of trying to make sure that they can actually

27:27recreate their industries. And now you have Donald Trump saying, I'm going to send my

27:32guys there and they're going to bring American companies in to rebuild the oil infrastructure

27:36in Venezuela. And the Democrats are mad.

27:39But this is a protectionary move.

27:43Yeah, I mean, if it's good for America, the Democrats are just against it.

27:47Like if you want to succeed in life, do exactly the opposite of what the

27:51New York Times told you.

27:52I mean, seriously, it's just an observation.

27:57And if I'm wrong, I'm willing to listen.

27:59But to me, it just seems, you know, take the bird's eye view of stuff.

28:02You can tell. And it's, yeah, I mean, a safe South America is a good

28:07Central America with the, I mean, the drugs are coming in and out.

28:10But you got to be honest, the cartels have been running security on the resorts

28:13that we've been going to anyway.

28:15There's a way to make things work.

28:16Not everything is as nice and cut and dry.

28:18I mean, look at Dubai, probably the safest place in the world.

28:21You don't want to know how they enforce it.

28:23They do. But people behave when you can use lawful ways of handling the law.

28:30People will listen. But once you start giving them the victim mentality and just shoving

28:34money in their face, especially their governments, like right now we're saying we're sending $40

28:37million a week to the Taliban just for the people.

28:39Yeah, the people are getting all of it.

28:41We're buying them weapons and training camps.

28:42They're coming back. Hamza bin Laden is running those.

28:45There's a lot of stuff going on.

28:45People don't know. But we can fight about the nonsense they put in the air.

28:49All right. I said that that was my last question.

28:52But one last thing. Do you think that the Middle Eastern countries are shocked that

28:56Iran has come after them so hard?

28:59No, I think the Middle East countries are in complete control of what they're doing.

29:02They don't mind a little bit of this, too.

29:03Every time they get hit in a spot that might have been preplanned, a lot

29:06of stuff is preplanned just to, you know, hit an empty base.

29:09We get leverage. A lot of behind the scenes stuff going on.

29:13Yeah, they're ready. They're ready for it.

29:14And they're also, you know, they're ready to build skyscrapers in the Gaza Strip and

29:18then make Iran great again.

29:22I think they are ready for that.

29:24And they seem to be excited about what, I mean, this whole coming together with

29:28the Abraham Accords was was a very good foreshadowing for what the second administration is

29:34going to be. What's so noticed, Tudor, is most of the people love this, like

29:38the people in Iran love this.

29:40The people who are under the thumb of of the terrorists of Hamas, they love

29:45this, too. Some of the most welcoming people I've ever met has been at three

29:48in the morning in Ramadi in the wrong house.

29:51Most people want to get on with their lives and raise their kids.

29:53The problem is we get the despots in charge of the corruption like it keeps

29:56circling back to. People are actually good.

29:58The politicians and the lawyers are bad.

30:01Boy, that seems to be true no matter where you are.
