Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to PBN. You're playing back the stability here. What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear? Or peace so price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, almighty God. I know not what course others may take. As for me, give me liberty, or give me death. Fox Strike!
Starting point is 00:01:17 PBN Family, what is up? This is how live radio, probably how live anything works. It was a matter of, I don't know, seconds between the show kicking off and the moment the dogs ran off the couch because one of the chickens was freaking out. I don't think there's anything going on. Sorry, I'm watching them sort of. I just got off the phone with Jay Ferg, which is hilarious.
Starting point is 00:01:57 She was telling me about how she had her own chicken strike. Oh no, I see one. I see one outside the gate. That's what happened. Chickens don't like borders. They're not a big fan of borders. They're not a big fan of restriction. Now, they pay dividends. Do you know what I mean? They really do. They pay dividends for all their debauchery but okay sorry that was not how i intended this show to start but i and how my mother's calling me on top of it live radio baby you know how it goes you might be surprised at the title of this show. And it is what it is.
Starting point is 00:02:46 It is truly what it is. The title of this show explains most everything. I've been doing I Am Liberty for 10, 12 years now, something like that, you know? And, you know, it is what it is. It has been what it's needed to be How did surviving America come to be? I wrote a book
Starting point is 00:03:12 I don't even know when I think 2015, something like that It's called Tom Locke, Surviving America It's a really interesting story About a mountaintop jihadist camp, fundamentally. And more pertinent now than ever to. So what wound up happening is I created a sub stack. I've been doing all kinds of stuff. You know, I don't know. I get hit with these moments.
Starting point is 00:03:47 I get hit with these ideas. I get hit with these things. Inspiration comes in waves. It's like galactic. You know what I mean? It almost feels like galactic. Like the world, like the planet itself, the solar system itself, maybe even the galaxy itself, runs through some
Starting point is 00:04:06 kind of storm, and there's great inspiration therein. Can you hear the chicken outside? There's something going on, PBN family. There is something going on. There is a force at work right now that is trying to stifle this from happening. But quite frankly, when you've been a business owner for as long as I have, these barricades do nothing. You know what I mean? And what I'm hearing from the chicken is fundamentally there's somebody...
Starting point is 00:04:44 The language of the chicken I'm hearing, I don't know if you guys know chicken language, chicken speak. But once you have them long enough, you get it. And what I'm hearing from her is someone's in the place where I need to lay an egg. And that's basically it. Someone's in the place where I need to lay an egg and I'm going to bitch about it outside your window. But anyhow We're going to retire the I Am Liberty show We're going to retire the I Am Liberty show Not to say it'll be dead forever
Starting point is 00:05:16 But as of late I don't know if it's my kid getting older Carter becoming more of a Mid-range man I don't know I don't know if it's my kid getting older, Carter becoming more of a mid-range man. I don't know. I don't know what it is. But I Am Liberty, to me, has always been a lot of fun. It has always been great. Something just said, you know, we've reached a new phase.
Starting point is 00:05:40 We've reached a new point in our life. This was an idea that was born out of my youth as a blog and a show that was born out of that. And it just feels like that. I don't know. It feels like now's the time. It feels like we need to retire the I Am Liberty show and start something new.
Starting point is 00:06:02 And that new thing is going to be called Surviving America. And I'd like to keep it, I mean, I'm not telling you it'll be a sea change of what I do. I think what I need on the Prepper Broadcasting Network, one of the things that I don't take advantage of, is the perspectives of the listeners and the hosts. You know, every time I have a host on or every time I'm interviewed on a host show, I'm always kind of reminded of what power we have when we cross the streams.
Starting point is 00:06:35 But we don't do it enough. And I'm thinking we need a show of my perspective and other perspectives. I haven't felt out exactly what it will be. It will certainly be me. That's impossible for me to not do. It will be me. It will be crazy stream of consciousness, updates on all the crazy things that I'm doing outside of PBN and PBN Daily News Talk. It will be my take on all those kinds of things and everything I normally do in terms of... In other words, I don't think the I Am Liberty show will disappear in terms of content
Starting point is 00:07:14 if you're into that sort of thing, right? Because it's me, fundamentally. But I live by the old adage, bait the hook with your heart, and the fish will come. And it's just that time, folks. It just really is that time. All things come to an end.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Isn't that the truth? So I don't know. Next week maybe. Maybe the week after. The I Am Liberty show will be retired and you will come to listen to James Walton. James Walton. The Intrepid Commander. On Surviving America.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Okay. I don't have intro. I don't have any of that kind of stuff. The only thing I can tell you that's cooking is perspectives. I would like to have more short-form perspectives on prepping topics and issues that I'm talking about in the show from our hosts. Now, it would have been cool for me to email them first and say, hey, how would you feel about giving me your perspectives before I make an announcement like this? But again, we've been doing this for a long time. And I know those hosts out there who will happily give me those valuable perspectives.
Starting point is 00:08:34 And you, too. You know, you guys, too. You guys we miss out on. I mean, really. I know you're preppers and I know OPSEC is important, but we really do miss out. We really need a sound-off show from the listening audience. We really do. We have a call-in number.
Starting point is 00:08:50 I do a live show. I'm going to do the live show this time of day going forward. Surviving America will be an 8-ish, 9-ish a.m. show. And we really do need you guys. If it would help to submit questions, that's fine too. I'd be into that. I'd definitely be into that. That just is what it is. What else?
Starting point is 00:09:17 What else, folks? I think we're primed now. I think all but one nagging issue is taken care of in terms of distractions. Let me finish this last distraction up. Hear from the Prepper's Medical Handbook ad real quick, and then I'll be back with the rest of the show. Are you prepared to be the family doctor in a disaster or emergency?
Starting point is 00:09:44 This is the Intrepid Commander, and I'm holding The Prepper's Medical Handbook by William W. Forgy, M.D. In this great book, you'll learn how to prepare for medical care off the grid. You'll learn about assessment and stabilization. You'll even deal with things like bioterrorism response, radiation, and how to build the off-grid medical kit at home. Look, 2020 taught us a lot about the limitations of our medical infrastructure in America. Get the Prepper's Medical Handbook today at Amazon.com. Again, that's the Prepper's Medical Handbook by William W. Forgy. The Intrepid Commander. Again, that's The Prepper's Medical Handbook by William W. Forgy.
Starting point is 00:10:28 The Intrepid Commander. Looks like there's some turbulence up ahead. To the thing you found us. We are the Prepper Broadcasting network. Newer path. Act stability. Hit the wrong sound bite. I've done this before.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Live shows. I've done it once or twice. Hey, listen. Life happens in waves, folks. Okay? The things that are happening right now in my life, it's crazy. Okay? It's a wild ride right now in my life, it's crazy. It's a wild ride right now.
Starting point is 00:11:08 There's a lot of crazy stuff happening. You go through these times in life where nothing can go wrong. It's impossible. You're riding so high, nothing can go wrong. And you have the inverse as well. To me, it's like a roller coaster of life. And the older you get, the better you get at detecting where you're at on that ride. I'm way up right now, man.
Starting point is 00:11:34 And you understand the impending doom of the fact that life will balance. And I'm in a balancing portion of my life at the moment. You know what I mean? That's just what it is. And this podcast has been a clear reminder of that. Whatever intergalactic force it is that's putting
Starting point is 00:11:51 you know speed bumps and burnt, wrecked vehicles in my way of getting things done lately. We just gotta ride through it. We gotta ride through it. And survive it. Surviving America. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:12:08 So I got a bunch of things on my mind today that I want to talk about. I didn't know about this drone attack in Russia, Moscow of all places. It's day four of the ADNC. Right? Is it day four? What day is it? Day two? Day three? Day three of the ADNC, right? Is it day four? What day is it? Day two? Day three? Day three of the ADNC, I think. And what is the ADNC?
Starting point is 00:12:34 Well, the ADNC is what I want you to call it going forward. The ADNC is exactly what it is. It's the Anti-Democratic National Convention. It's the Anti-Democratic National Convention. Why do you call it the Anti-Democratic National Convention. Why do you call it the Anti-Democratic National Convention? Well, it's pretty straightforward. Pretty straightforward, right? Pretty straightforward. You think about the Anti-Democratic National Convention and then think about history. There was no democratic process involved. I mean, I just love and hate, but more love than hate,
Starting point is 00:13:07 because it is kind of fun to watch them flounder a bit. I love that a group, and what it is is I think the recovery is so impressive of these left-wing lunatics, right? The recovery is unbelievable. Like, everyone on the Democratic side has, and pretty much on the Republican side too, I can't remember the last time I heard any politician say sorry or whoops, we messed up. Their ability to recover from complete and total like nuclear bombs going off in their rhetoric, it's pretty impressive.
Starting point is 00:13:42 It's like unflappable. is it's pretty impressive you know it's like unflappable because they spent the better part of a year if not two years talking about how valuable and precious and important democracy is and now they're making believe that everyone got a vote in for for kamala right now they're pretending like the people played any role whatsoever in the presidential candidate for the Democrats. You played no role in Kamala Harris. Zero. No, no role. There was no voting. You had no say. voting. You had no say. If Kamala said that she was going to kill all the babies tomorrow or her first day in office, you would have to look back and say,
Starting point is 00:14:32 I never got a chance to even vote for her. There was zero democratic process in the Democratic Party's candidate. That's phenomenal. And nobody comes out during the entire DNC, not one person has the balls to come out and say, we screwed up. This is not how this should have went. This is not how this should have went. So I call it the anti-democratic national convention, but not because of this year. You'll remember back in 2020 when Joe Biden, the absolute political force that he is, loved by all, beat out Bernie Sanders, February 3rd, August 11th, 2020.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Beat out Bernie Sanders in a Democratic National Convention. 2,695 delegates to 1,117 delegates, right? What did the left do? What did most Democrats do? The resounding message was, oh man, they stole it from Bernie. They stole it from Bernie again. Remember that?
Starting point is 00:16:02 Remember the Democratic Party and sort of the dark cloud that was over the head of the Democratic National Convention because the people wanted Bernie Sanders. And instead they got the ailing Joe Biden. And if it feels very familiar, that's because when they ran the unholy Hillary Clinton in 2016, on June 14, 2016, Hillary Clinton got 2,842 delegates to win, and Bernie came up short yet again with 1,865, and the sentiment was the same. Now, the popular vote was said back then to be even closer, with just a 3 million, no, I'm sorry, what are we doing? Yeah, like a 3 million person margin. The truth of the matter is the DNC has been the ADNC for almost 10 years. For almost 10 years, it has been a place where Bernie Sanders has gone to die.
Starting point is 00:17:11 And now a place where democracy on the whole has gone to die because you didn't even get, you didn't even get to vote for the candidate. Not one vote was cast for her. Not one ballot, you know what I mean? Not one delegate was given to her until all the delegates were given to her. Not one ballot, you know what I mean? Not one delegate was given to her
Starting point is 00:17:26 until all the delegates were given to her. And I know that she wasn't in the running, so that's just what it is. But this is the least democratic thing on the largest scale that you could do. Right? If this happened with your governor, you would freak out. Seriously. If this happened with your governor, you would be like, what?
Starting point is 00:17:54 They just brought somebody on? We didn't get to vote on them at all? Now it's the governor? Because listen, there's a good chance that this lady wins. I'm telling you right now. There's a good chance that this lady wins. I'm telling you right now. There's a good chance that Kamala Harris is president in January. Don't think that, I mean, what I'm seeing, and it has nothing to do with her.
Starting point is 00:18:16 It has completely to do with the shared hatred of Donald Trump. Donald Trump got shot in the head. The ear, he got shot in the head. The ear. He got shot in the head. Right? Barely. Missed killing him. And you would think that happened.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Back in 2020. The coverage on that. I'd just like to put that in real quick. Let's do a little experiment. Let's just type in Trump assassination and look at Fox. The first thing that comes up... This is unbelievable. This is so unbelievable to me.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Two hours ago, Yahoo posted a fact-check photo of Hitler posing like Trump after assassination attempt is fake. Anything but Fox. New York Post. Chilling footage appears to show Thomas Crooks casually walking through the crowd two hours before attempted Trump assassination. Well, that's 20 hours ago. They're still covering stuff. USA Today Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry share thoughts on Donald Trump assassination attempt. Daily Post, Trump set to hold first outdoor rally since assassination attempt.
Starting point is 00:19:40 House panel demands info from Google Meta over alleged censorship of Trump assassination. That's a good sign. You know, fundamentally, it's a dead story, and that's crazy. It's crazy. This will be a dead story, too. What's already a dead story? This never even had a chance to take root, what's happened with Kamala Harris. a dead story. This never even had a chance to take root, what's happened with Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:20:10 Kamala Harris just becoming the presidential candidate because Barack Obama said so. It just, you know, that's it. That's exactly what happened too, by the way. Barack Obama said, run Kamala, Joe. Step down, run Kamala. Can we do that? Hell yeah, we can do that. I said we can do that. Okay, yes, sir. For the will of the people. That's it. That's it.
Starting point is 00:20:38 So call it the ADNC. Because it's got a long history of being anything but democratic. Right? I mean, if you believe that Bernie Sanders, with all his rabid followers, was beat out, and was beat out once by Hillary Clinton, and then was beat out again by Joe Biden, see, the dark secret, folks, is the Democrats have been stealing elections
Starting point is 00:21:00 from themselves for a while. It was only in 2020 that they pulled it off against the opposing party. That's it. And that's all. So, you know, it is what it is, folks. I have an article here called The Mindset of the Doomsday Preppers, How and Why They're Prepared. And I want to get into that today on Preppers in the News. Story by Emily Stanley Allard. The phenomenon of doomsday prepping has gained significant attention in fictional media over the years, especially in times of political instability, economic uncertainty, environmental crises. More and more Americans, it seems, are preparing.
Starting point is 00:22:07 The Post delves into what drives individuals to prepare for catastrophic events. Okay, yada, yada, yada. So what is my mindset? I love articles like these because I love to see if they actually know my mindset. Understanding the mindset of doomsday preppers. There's a relatively small but growing segment of Americans who could consider themselves preppers, people prepared to survive without government assistance during disasters. Those disasters could encompass anything from a major storm to widespread looting sparked by election anger.
Starting point is 00:22:37 This is a rather new piece. More Americans preparing for disaster ahead of election. In the past 12 months, 39% of millennials. Hang on a minute. I have to go let the dog out. There's only one dog in the house. It has to go out now. Okay?
Starting point is 00:22:58 Just give me a second. What a show. Hard to believe it's just one of them mornings pbm family that's all there is that's all there is to it i thank jay ferg for giving me a call that was a but but it's been pretty much downhill from there. No, I'm kidding. My other dog that was outside, it sounded like he was being eaten alive by a coyote.
Starting point is 00:23:35 He was so desperately trying to get in the house. This stuff never happens. It just never happens. It's one of those shows. So, overall, almost 30% of Americans surveyed reported taking some step towards emergency preparedness last year, up to 25% in 2017. Understanding the mindset of doomsday preppers was a two-sentence part of this article, which is titled The Mindset of Doomsday Preppers. Oh, here we go. What are our psychological motivations? Let's see. which is titled The Mindset of Doomsday Preppers. Psychological. Oh, here we go.
Starting point is 00:24:08 What are our psychological motivations? Let's see. Let's see. This is good. The psychology behind doomsday prepping is complex and multifaceted. Preppers are typically motivated by a combination of fear, survival instincts, and a sense of responsibility toward themselves and others. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Number one is fear and anxiety. Many preppers experience a heightened sense of anxiety about the future. You know, since I'm really good at making connections, and I am, I'm good at that. You know what I think it's from, too? I don't think it's like anything other than—in other words, I'm good at connecting things, particularly in media and stuff like that or in life. I don't think it is anything special. I've thought about this. Why am I good at it?
Starting point is 00:25:00 You know why I'm good at it? Because of those books that kids used to read. What are they called? What were they called? I'm going to post something in the chat right now that I want you to look at. What up, Mad Dog? Thanks for joining us, man. What were the name of those books in chat?
Starting point is 00:25:22 It starts with a C. I want to say it was Crossroads, but it wasn't that. chat. It starts with a C. I want to say it was Crossroads, but it wasn't that. There were kids books that had, you know, drawing tips in them and fun games and stories and crafts and everything that could get in the way of this show is going to happen today. I'm sorry. They just released the first video game gameplay of the new Batman VR game called Arkham Shadow. And the geek reveals himself full glory.
Starting point is 00:25:55 It's just one of them days. I don't know what to tell you. Cross, what was it called? Crossroads? Crossworlds? I'm just going to keep spouting until someone gets it. Kids book, Kids Magazine, from the 90s.
Starting point is 00:26:14 Oh, that'll do it. That'll do it. I'm also really good at Google searches. That's helped. Cricket? No, it wasn't Cricket. It wasn't Sports Illustrated, not Nat Geo. Show me some images. These books had, inside of them, every book, one of my favorite things in
Starting point is 00:26:34 these books was, you know, the comparative pictures and what were the differences were in two pictures. So they'd take the same picture, there'd be a handful of differences, and highlights. That was it. Highlights. What the hell was I talking about? Crossroads. Jesus, God. Getting old. Not really. Feel great. Highlights. Ah, Mad Dog had it. I should have stayed in chat. I didn't give you my faith chat. I apologize. Yeah, so the highlights just had those pictures, right? It was like a picture of the front of a house and a picture of the front of a house next to each other. You'd stare at them and go, oh, the flower pot's different. The window has a shade in it. Whatever. I fundamentally think that the whole of my ability to look at the world and go, oh, there's a connection here or, oh, there's a problem there.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I really think it all comes down to just the time I spent on highlights. Seriously. So Peter Zion, the link that I put in, and everybody should read his book, The End of the World is Just the Beginning. Everybody within the sound of my voice should read his book. The End of the World is Just the Beginning. Everybody within the sound of my voice should read his book. The End of the World is Just the Beginning. It's one of the few pieces of literature, I mean, it's nonfiction, but that I've read in a long time that doesn't make you feel like America is going to fall apart. China's going to take over everything. You know, his fundamental thesis is like China's lost the demographic battle and is going to collapse. And when you read it, it sounds spot on.
Starting point is 00:28:15 He's very pragmatic in American supremacy, I think, for a number of reasons. I don't want to go into it. But I listen to this guy and I read this guy and I don't, you know, he's human. So I'm not like, this is my God and I worship at his altar. He gets stuff wrong, I think. And he's also, in all honesty, he's also kind of guessing the future based on, you know, the things that we can see now. that we can see now. But he put a piece out today about the thinking of Americans, why Americans think the way they do.
Starting point is 00:28:54 And it's a really interesting thing, and it tells you a lot. It has nothing to do with prepping the video, but it tells you a lot about why so many Americans are preppers. And it's because when we're faced with fear and anxiety, we are of a—our whole thing is action. You know what I mean? Since the first people who stepped on this continent, the first, I guess, the first, you know, colonizers, the mean and nasty white guys who showed up. We came, we took insane action to get
Starting point is 00:29:29 here. We took insane action out of fear and anxiety, amongst other things, desire, you know, for wealth and notoriety, to survive here. And so on and so forth, the Forge forge west yada yada i talked about this a few shows ago so when i see fear and anxiety in this article as number one for preppers i think that might be it's probably right it's probably right because our response to fear and anxiety is extreme action extreme action it's not just like oh, you know, do something moderate. It's like, well, look at COVID. COVID came around, supermarkets got crazy. What happened? Tons of people were like, I'm out of here. Total migrations from California to Texas in a huge way. There were migrations from north to south, less people. Serious
Starting point is 00:30:26 changes were made. And that's just what we do. So fear and anxiety, number one. Survival instincts, number two. Control and autonomy. In a world where many aspects of life, this is number three, feel beyond individual control, prepping offers a sense of autonomy. I mean, it's so true. And I would have never used the word autonomy. I would have used liberty and freedom. But, you know, these young writers are so anti-American, I guess, that those concepts are lost. They'd rather use the word autonomy. I'm telling you right now, folks, like the desire for liberty and freedom, even if you've been brainwashed to assume that liberty and freedom at the hands of Thomas Jefferson and George Washington are a bad thing.
Starting point is 00:31:17 It's still in you. It's still baked India. Jesus is baked India. Freedom and liberty are baked India if you're American. You know what I mean? It doesn't matter how much you like Bernie Sanders. It just doesn't matter. It doesn't matter how much of a communist you want to be. Right and wrong is baked into you. It's just what it is. So, yeah, a real call for autonomy, for liberty and freedom, community and identity.
Starting point is 00:31:50 This is a big one. This is a big one. You know, there's as much reason for you to go to pbnfamily.com and sign up as a member. There's as much a reason for you to do that for the content over there as there is for the community here truly i mean particularly if you're alone like if if you're alone and you feel alone and you just want people that you identify with and you listen to these podcasts and you're like i get these people i like what they're saying and so on but I'm just so damn alone. It's a $60 a month membership and you won't be alone anymore. You'll join our element chat and you'll be able to chat with people all the time. You know what I mean? And about all the different things that you want to do or are doing with your preps because, well, we're about to tackle the greatest height of
Starting point is 00:32:48 prepper community that there is, and that's Prepper Camp. Prepper Camp, because it's been around so many years, because it's been frequented by the same speakers and so many of the same people selling things and so many of the same people who attend every year, and so many of the same people selling things, and so many of these same people who attend every year. It is the largest, not just Prepper event on the East Coast, but it is the largest gathering of Prepper community anywhere in the world. I think it's the largest Prepper event, period.
Starting point is 00:33:28 But anyway, we gather in numbers, and we see familiar faces, and we shake hands and give hugs and all this kind of stuff. And that is what it is, right? It's like, oh, here we are. Here we are. We have arrived. That's available to everybody. That's available to you. It's available to everybody.
Starting point is 00:33:44 You know what I mean? And the identity that goes along with it. Community and identity. I think these are important things, guys. These are core to being human and being fulfilled. You want to identify as something. You want to feel something. You want to feel as though you are a part of something big. This is the riots in the streets, folks. You know what
Starting point is 00:34:06 I mean? The riots in the streets are exactly that. What's happening in Chicago right now, the police are the thin blue line between both sides of lunatics, is how I wrote it. That's what's going on, right? They are the thin blue line between the lunatics in the suits and the lunatics in the headscarves. That's the amazing and incredible thing about the police that everyone hates is they're standing there in solidarity between the lunatics. So that's the top four. That's the prepper mindset in terms of this article. Fear and anxiety, survival instincts, control and autonomy or liberty and uh community and identity and you know that's kind of what i
Starting point is 00:34:54 was looking for but intro oh garden girl says she's 35 hours into a fast hang in there. Go 36. Make it 48. Make it 48. One of the things that is most interesting about post-fast is how everything in life seems easier. Mad Dog says, I don't think any of these concepts are unique to preppers. It's just the response of them that's different. Everybody gets anxious and wants to feel community. Preppers just have the greater tendency. Yeah, it's action, right? Like, in other words, the average American, I think, is an action taker. We're born of action takers. And then there's, you know, a hierarchy of willingness to take bold action. And I just think that preppers are the boldest. Preppers are the
Starting point is 00:35:47 people who take the boldest actions in terms of addressing those concerns. You know what I mean? Just what it sounds like to me, what it seems like to me, what it looks like to me. Let's move on because I'm about to wrap wrap this thing here i got some phone calls to make moscow sees one of ukraine's largest drone attacks as fighting rages in kursk and eastern ukraine now i don't know how many okay this is one of the biggest attempts of all time to attack moscow using, the mayor said. Mayor Sergei Sobayanin, reminds me a lot, his name is spelled like the way a fancy yogurt brand would be spelled,
Starting point is 00:36:32 S-O-B-Y-A-N-I-N. He made this announcement on Telegram. Russia downed 45 Ukrainian drones overnight, including 11 over the Moscow region. Some Russian social media channels shared videos of drones apparently being destroyed by air defense, which then set off car alarms. What's the endgame here, folks? What's the endgame? I can't, like, I imagine the endgame is, well, the Hollywood-style endgame is Russia pulls out happy ending for Ukraine, which I don't know if Ukraine can have a happy ending at this point.
Starting point is 00:37:17 But let's say Russia, under the duress and stress of the Kursk region being under attack and drone attacks in Moscow. Russia pulls out. The Great Bear pulls out and licks its wounds while the rest of the world laughs at it. Does that seem good? I mean, when was the—I kind of remember, like, a dictator—or, I'm sorry, I kind of remember a nation licking its wounds while the world laughed at it. Around this time, about 100 years ago and he then went on to create the most impressive and largest military ever ever seen in that time and uh damn near took over europe until eddie showed up right so? So I don't know.
Starting point is 00:38:06 That's what the Democrats want. There's no doubt about that. Doubt about that. But there's a different take that I get when I read these stories. There's a different thing going on in my head, and it is, are we pushing these guys to nuclear war? Are we just going to push Russia to a nuclear response even if it's tactical? You have to at the very least admit that it's a gamble, what we're doing.
Starting point is 00:38:38 It is a gamble. There's no denying the fact that it's a gamble. I don't know what the odds are. denying the fact that it's a gamble. I don't know what the odds are. But there is a percentage of response in Russia's mind that is tactical nuclear weapon, right? That is, just evaporate Kiev. We're done with it. We'll keep our territory. We'll evaporate the capital city. And so be it. We're taking losses. We've taken tremendous losses in this war. And now they're breaking through, you know, in these little ways into Russia. Mad Dog says not enough people are talking about Russia nuking either Ukraine or Kursk to defend its sovereignty.
Starting point is 00:39:17 It seems more likely every day. I mean, you could simply from Putin's perspective, assuming Putin has the power to even do that—I don't know how Russian systems really run—but assuming he even has the power to do that, how many years are you going to get clowned by your neighbor next door in NATO when you initially said, look, if NATO crosses this red line and helps, then they're going to see something like they've never seen before. And that red line has been crossed. More red lines have been crossed. We keep pushing lines. We keep doing things. And I just can't help but think to myself, you know, we're just running a massive gamble. We're running the gamble that Putin decides enough is enough. We'll keep what we've taken. That'll be our new Russian border. And, of course, you have to be able to enforce that. You have to be able to contest that.
Starting point is 00:40:19 And right now they don't have the capability of doing that. So they've got to come to an agreement with NATO and Ukraine on those new borders. Now their case is stronger than ever for a greater border, right? Whether that was Putin's true intention or not when he came and said we needed more of a border because they're talking about putting missiles on the Ukrainian border. Whether that was his true intention or not, I think it was partial. Ukrainian border. Whether that was his true intention or not, I think it was partial. We're now at a situation where his claim has been 100%. You know, he's been shown that, yeah,
Starting point is 00:40:59 they'll come. They'll come. They'll come into the country, for God's sake. Now, would we have gone in to his country if he didn't, you know, invade, probably not. But it's a big mess, man. What we really need to focus on right now is the fact that we have no president of the United States, and we're running one of the greatest gambles of all time. In other words, there's no guy, there's no Ronald Reagan to put a phone call into Putin. Nobody's going to talk to Putin. There's no president. There's no head. There's no impressive, dominant alpha male that's going to call up Putin and say, I know what you're thinking, and it's a bad idea. We're going to end this thing, and these are the terms. There's none of that.
Starting point is 00:41:38 We have no president. There's no president of the United States. Remember that. Remember that. This time in history should be remembered by that. There's no president of the United States, and the man who wants to be president of the United States more than anyone else almost got his head blown off. leadership story in the nation right now, okay?
