Donald Trump predicted this would happen.
And boy did it happen.
You have only to go to northern Morocco to find complete chaos now totally in Spain.
Take a look at these pictures.
I mean, just incredible.
Truly just incredible.
So this is the result.
We got a lot to talk about here, but this is the result you see of overly aggressive, liberal,
nut job policies that say, hey, come on, come all, we're going to give everybody amnesty.
A million of you are going to get amnesty and what happens to people across the borders.
Like, it's not that hard to figure out.
It happened under Joe Biden.
It happened.
And it's been happening for the last 24 plus hours in a little part of Spain right next door to Morocco.
And they are just flooding in.
Spain has officially lost control of the border.
I got to update this number because it was 49,000.
And as of earlier this morning, we're now looking at 60K, they're saying have stampeded into the European Union, into Spain.
It's gotten so bad that Little Petrerozzo Sanchez actually made the trip all the way over to this little Spanish area to try to deal with this disaster.
And it really, it's a disaster of his own making, really and truly.
I mean, you've got this Moroccan migrant invasion.
And no one wants this.
Rubio doesn't want this.
State Department's out with a notice on this one.
Ursula doesn't want this, right over in Brussels?
Ursula is like, what is going on?
George Maloney?
Oh, George Maloney is Taryn a new one there for Little Pedrito?
She is not happy at all about this.
And you've got a whole bunch of people that are absolutely furious
and understandably so.
I mean, this is unbelievable guys.
You see this?
They like open the floodgates.
They said, come one, come all.
And now you have what?
Oh, I don't see a lot of women.
I don't see a lot of children.
I see a lot of young, military-aged men that are stampeding that border.
And sadly, 18 people have died overnight we have learned because of the violence that's ensuing.
They actually started striking out at some of the police forces.
I'm going to show you that as well.
I mean, there's not a lot to say other than Spain.
You really screwed up, okay?
You really screwed up unless this was the intention all along.
And if this was your intention all along, little Pedrito Sanchez, you know, with your one million amnesty program and offering 500,000 visas just a couple of months ago, yeah, handing them out like candy.
And you sit there and say, I don't understand this.
This is an invasion.
Well, what do you think?
Well, what do you think, you're gay?
I mean, think about this.
This is what the Democrats wanted to have happened to the United States of America.
They sit there and say, no ice, no ice, no ice.
Well, this is what you have, ladies and gentlemen, if you say we're not going to control our border.
compiled a whole bunch of video here. It's just insane. Take a look at that. And again, I want to repeat.
I'm not seeing a lot of women. I'm not seeing a lot of children. I'm seeing a lot of young men,
Muslim men stampeding the border into Spain. And if they have amnesty in Spain and they're able to live in
Spain, well, guess what? They get to go here, there, and everywhere as part of the whole European deal, right?
That's why George Maloney's so mad. I mean, even France is mad right now. And clearly Marcos
mad. Before we get to all of that, Pedro Sanchez, little Pedrito Sanchez, he decided to fly over there.
I just want to kind of explain a little bit of geography. Let me see if I have a map I can show you,
because the geography is sort of interesting right here. It's actually on the corner, if you
would, of that very northern tip of Morocco. So you've got actually a couple of Spanish territory.
So it's right next door. It's right next door. And as a result of that close proximity, there
able to kind of just get in there rather easily. Now, they've had problems with this before,
but nothing like this. Nothing quite like this. I mean, this takes the cake because we haven't
seen anyone kind of, well, push back. I mean, Pedro over there trying to say, well, I'm going to
come over here and I'm going to stop it all. I mean, good luck. Okay, so here we go. Do you see,
it's a little town called Seuta. And I say little because the population of Seuta, Spain,
is somewhere around 80,000 people.
They've had 60,000 people overnight storm the place
with more that keep on common and coming.
Now, I realize, New York Times wants to tell you,
oh, it's all under control, it's all under control.
I don't think this is under control.
See, it's right near Tangier.
We're going to talk about the history of this,
because, you know, this happened once before.
And Spain, as a result, lived under Moorish rule,
Muslim rule, for 800 years until 1492.
It wasn't just, you know, Columbus, sail in the ocean blue in 1492.
That was the year that Spain and Christianity triumphed and took its country back.
So this little town Seuta, Seuta, in Spain is right next door to all of those other towns in Morocco.
And they're stampeding the border.
Now, once they get in there, it's home free because he said he's not sending anybody home.
He said, you know, once you come in, if you come in by boat, we're not going to send you home.
You get amnesty in Spain.
So, of course, they're all coming.
It's not that hard to figure out.
Really not that hard to figure out.
Spain is fully, totally lost control over all of this.
If I look at some of the pictures that came into us overnight, take a look at this.
It got a little bit violent.
You've got fires.
Pretty bad.
And it looked as though some of the people were being fired upon that were trying to control the situation.
not good. So again, Moroccan storming the border and Spain really not being able to do a thing
about this. Pedrito Sanchez brought this on himself. Really tragic situation there. And the
U.S. government has come out and said, look, we stand with the people of Spain and this is unnecessary
and this is horrible and et cetera, et cetera. But I think that there's going to be ramifications here
because how can we, given the security concerns that we're facing right now,
given the reality that we're at war with Iran,
how can we allow for all of these Muslim young military-aged men
to be coming into Sayuta, Spain, when we're facing some serious threats ourselves?
So here they are, sort of attacking the locals there,
and they want to continue storming the border.
So things are getting a little bit, I would just say, a little bit out of control, this video coming in overnight to us.
Unbelievable footage.
Just unbelievable footage.
And I would just say, you know what?
We knew this was coming.
Donald Trump predicted this was coming.
He keeps telling them you cannot allow for your country to be taken away from you right under your own feet.
It's happened before, right?
Consider.
Just consider what went on for nearly 800 years.
I mean, they took over in 7-Eleven.
They came up, interestingly, also through this little town, Seuta.
Seuta actually had a local that was close to the guy.
You know, it was named straight to Gibraltar that was actually for the guy who
would conquer that entire area.
And he moved up from Morocco.
It was the North Africans who just came up into Spain and they kept going and going and going
until they got all of Spain.
You had some holdouts in the north.
And eventually the North.
was able, over the span of eight centuries, it took eight centuries, the North was able to get
control back over its territory and into Catholic hands that was Ferdinana and Isabella, okay,
back in 1492, big, big year for Spain. And now we're going back to this where Spain's
totally losing control. It's truly unbelievable. Again, I want to update this because we've
now updated this number, 60,000 people stampeding into the EU.
what does this mean for our relationship with Europe?
What does it tell you about Pedro Sanchez,
who I've long suspected of working for the other side?
He then sent armed forces to Seuta amid this migration chaos.
That's an article that came out this morning in Politico.
We saw a tweet just a short time ago from Mr. Pedrito Sanchez,
and he's saying here, this is the translation from English,
what has happened is an attack on Spain's territorial integrity
and deserves our most resounding and energetic condemnation.
except he says it with a good Spanish accent, right, with a good TH, like Barcelona.
Anyway, so Mr. Pedrito Sanchez going on and all of Spain stands with the people of Seuta.
The government of Spain stands with the autonomous city.
Thank you for the cooperation that we have always maintained with the city government.
We'll use all the resources of the state government because he loves those state resources, right?
We're going to use them all.
He said for security and coexistence and our total and resounding commitment to the future of the autonomous city of Seuta.
Okay, so he wants to make sure that you know that this is a territorial invasion.
How is it a territorial invasion when you invited everybody there, which is, by the way,
exactly what Elon Musk tweeted out.
I got a kick out of this.
So Elon writes, when did you offer Spanish citizenship to invaders, you get more invaders.
Don't you think?
Don't you think?
But Pedro, little Pedro's putting up a big, big fight.
He flew all the way to Seuta.
and he got up there and he started saying, you know, a whole song and dance about, you know,
how things were going to get better.
And he was going to stand, of course, with all the people there.
Of course, the people there don't really like him very much.
Can you blame him?
I mean, here he is getting heckled.
Yeah, that was Pedroito getting heckled.
Okay, so here they're saying, Pedro,
Sanchez, Iho, they, very bad word.
Son of a you know what, okay?
So here they're screaming at him out there.
The people of Ceuta are like, what has happened?
They've got actually a kind of conservative government.
And the conservative government is like dealing with this threat of invasion nonstop from Morocco.
And you can imagine the conservative government didn't really appreciate it.
When little Pedrita Sanchez got up there and said, hey, I'm going to give autonomy to everyone.
And by the way, if you're coming by boat, you're extra special.
And so when you're extra special and you're coming by boat, what do you think they do?
They come and they come and they come again and they want to conquer.
I mean, I'm not kidding you.
Like, these are not women and children, okay, guys.
These are Muslim young men.
Sure, okay, they're coming for a chance at a better life, but their government knows what they're doing.
And I would argue that Pedro Sanchez in some ways knows what he's doing as well,
which is why our government is so concerned.
So sure, he's putting up a little song and dance.
He's going to tell you he's doing what he needs to do to get everybody out.
He says there are two conditions that you need to be thinking about the cooperation
that we will always have with our delegation, our government, everyone present here, institutional,
institutional bilateral, with the government of Ceuta.
Everyone in Spain, everyone is here, all of Spain is here for you,
and were the consequences of the government.
He's really stuck on the government, right?
The government's going to fix all this.
The government, the government, the government.
Maybe the government should not have done what it did in the first place.
Maybe the government should have just, you know, way back when, not have invited everybody here.
That might have actually been a better solution for you, little Pedro.
So he's talking about, again, you know, the need for us to be independent territory of Spain.
It's a city that's Spanish, he said, and it's going to continue being Spanish.
In other words, it's not going to be Moroccan because it's the country.
At this point, you don't really have a lot of different avenues to choose from.
I mean, you could just say to heck with it.
Morocco, here you go.
We're going to turn it over.
I mean, that's one option in all seriousness, given that they have just conquered and invaded.
Again, I remind you, Sayuta is a population of 80,000 people.
And you have 60,000 that just arrived as of this morning.
60,000 people as of this morning.
So that sounds like they kind of conquered it to me, okay?
And it's just sort of fitting that this is the city that actually.
helped them conquer Gibraltar and the south of Spain, way back on Gibraltar,
which now, of course, is a UK territory.
That's a whole other thing, whole other can of worms between Spain and the UK.
But I'm just saying they got a real problem here, a serious, serious problem.
And we don't want any part of it, right?
You can sit there and tell us until you're blue in the face that you're going to fix it.
But we know what you did.
We know what you're saying.
We know your policies, Pedro.
Pedro, we know that you're offering a million people amnesty.
We know that you just opened up the spigot and said, come on, come all.
and this is the result of it.

And whether it's Elon telling you or me telling you or Marco Rubio telling you, at some point,
you got to get the picture here.
Marco Rubio leveling Pedro Sanchez, leveling Spain, putting out a State Department tweet just a
short time ago saying the United States stands with the people of Spain and all Europeans
against this egregious violation of their sovereignty and human rights.
This unacceptable incident is the direct result of the Spanish government's deliberate efforts
to enable and facilitate mass illegal migration into Europe.
What did I tell you?
That's exactly what it is.
We are considering actions to defend Americans at home and abroad from this threat
and stand ready to assist other European allies considering similar options.
In other words, Italy, Georgia Maloney, you may be back on our good side right about now
because this is so intolerable.
And we know you hate it to.
And France, we know you hate it too.
And Ursula in Brussels, we know you hate it to.
And even Friedrich, little Friedrich, Freddie Martz, Fredt, Fred Marz.
he came out the Chancellor of Germany and said that's unacceptable.
I mean, obviously unacceptable.
And here's where we got a little bit of clout, if you would.
You know how we've got clout?
Because if we say, hey, we're not going to allow anyone in from Spain.
We're basically saying we're not allowing anyone in from the entire EU.
Because once you're in Spain, right, they have this Schengen agreement where they have
open borders, thanks to the Schengen Treaty. So those open borders may, you can go anywhere.
That's why Georgia's so worked up. That's why even France has worked up. That's why Germany is
now a little bit worked up because not only can you go anywhere, you get to collect benefits
anywhere. And they're kind of running out of money because we turned off the spigot,
remember, for NATO. So they've got to come up with 5% of their own GDP. It means they can't be
spending everything on every Tom Dick and Harry or Muhammad, Muhammad and Muhammad.
okay like who decides to walk across the border and take on welfare so rubio is considering some options
and some of the options on the table include just saying no no one can travel from spain to the
u.s but then that's going to mean no one from europe can travel to the u.s so you understand the
significance of this let me go to marco rubio this is a very important clip he said this in 2025 last year
And it's very relevant, okay, when you think about the chaos, the insanity, the loss of control that is going on today.
When you see this, again, all those young men flooding the streets of Ceuta, stampeding into Seuta, conquering Seuta, and it is a conquering.
because when you got 80,000 people living in Seuta and you got 60,000 streaming in in the span of one day,
I don't know what else you call that.
And you don't know who these people are.
And everybody's going to get amnesty?
Are you kidding me?
Marco Rubio 2025.
This is important.
Listen up.
Look, the bottom line is there is no effective way to allow hundreds of thousands of people to enter any country in the world and not face consequences.
You take 100,000 people from anywhere in the world,
and you're going to have some percentage of them that turn out bad,
either they turn into criminals or potentially terrorists.
I think that threat is heightened when you come from places that have terrorist movements
that would target these people for radicalization once they enter our country.
Wow.
So we don't know who's coming in.
So therefore, how can we allow for all these Europeans if the Europeans,
because they got one bad egg in Spain?
If Spain is allowing for all these people to come in,
what does that mean for everything else?
And I'm telling you, this is history repeating itself.
The Moors conquered Spain in 7-Eleven,
and they did it through Morocco and Ceuta.
So there's a special significance to all of this.
We're going to talk about the history.
Oh, we have so much to talk about.
But first, I want to tell you about one of our new sponsors here on the show,
Trish Rican show.

how did you hear about superpower
and you say, ah, on the Trish Riggins show, of course.
So that helps support the show and you're supporting yourself.
Anyway, amazing how history is sort of repeating itself here.
I think about 1492, okay?
The Moors came in from Morocco.
The Moors came in from Saracca, forgive me, not 1492, that's the year they took it back.
I think about 7-11 AD, okay?
And they were coming in from North Africa right up into Spain, right up into Spain.
And that is when Spain totally lost control over its border and totally lost control over its country.
And it was Tariq Ibsiyadh.
So he had the Berber-led forces.
that conquered Spain and actually they did this by conquering first Gibraltar.
In fact, Gibraltar is named for him.
So very relevant when you're thinking about what we saw there overnight,
especially as we heard these chants of Alu Akbar.
I want you to listen to this.
You hear that? You hear that?
Alu Akbar.
Viva, Speria.
Alu Akbar and Viva Espania.
That's what you're hearing at the crossing.
You're seeing the violence overnight.
With the fires, with civilians and people that are trying to get everything under control
being struck out at, you see the crazy traffic.
And by the way, if you were to go, say, an hour away from Seuta into the nearby towns,
what you would actually see is a whole staging area, which tells me this is not happening in a vacuum.
This is happening very intentionally.
This is happening because someone wants it to happen.
This is happening because you've got Pedrito Sanchez with stupid border policies opening up the entire country to everyone who can come.
You have Ceuta, which is right next door to Morocco.
There's another town down there as well that's similar.
or it's a Spanish-run territory.
And so once you get in there, you're in for good.
And so once you're in for good,
you're actually in the European system for good.
And this is what's calling attention
into the whole Schengen system.
I mean, what can you, how can you have a country
if you have no borders,
if you have all of these people
that are willing to come in and take over?
And I say take over once again.
Unbelievable.
So again, just to,
point this out. Melia, do you see that? Also on the coast there of Morocco and Seuta. Those are the two
Spanish territories. They're right near Tangier. You look up on that map and you see Gibraltar and that is
the area, it's British territory, but that whole area, Malaga, that whole area, Cadiz. We actually
have a base that remember we wanted to use our bases, at Rota and also the one at Cadiz and we
couldn't get in, Rotta and Moron, because Little Petritiz,
Sanchez wouldn't let us? You think we're going to help him with this ordeal? I don't think so.
I don't think so. The Morse invasion, again, just remember these numbers, 711 AD. That's when it
happened. It took all the way to 1492 until this was actually addressed. So it was the fall of Granada
in 1492 under the rule of Isabelle and Ferdinand of Spain, of course. And they were the ones
that were the patrons, remember of Christopher Colon, Columbus, who came to discover the Americas.
And you think about everything that's happening.
I mean, the way they want to get rid of the whole memory of Christopher Colon, the way they,
Columbus, the way they want to get rid of basically anything that's associated with white
Europeanism.
And then you consider what we're watching here transact today.
I just going to say, it's truly amazing.
and one that's pretty concerning.
Italy gets it right now.
Italy coming out, swinging, very angry.
Let me show you what Georgia Maloney is saying.
She's horrified by the images coming out of Ceuta.
She said they're striking, and they demonstrate once again
that uncontrolled illegal immigration poses a concrete threat
to the security of Europe's borders.
I have spoken with Interior Minister Matteo.
Oh, goodness.
Piazzi.
Okay, don't call me on that.
And if she said, Italy is not going to stand by and watch.
We are convening the relevant bodies and following these meetings, we are prepared to intervene with extraordinary measures to defend the borders and the safety of citizens, including the suspension of the Schengen area with Spain.
Baba, open borders.
Arrivederci, as they would say, on illegal immigration, we will not yield an inch, she writes, defending the border.
orders, stopping human traffickers, and ensuring effective repatriations will continue to be the line
of this government.
So Georgia Maloney coming out with a very emphatic – I've got to say this is amazing because
recently I've been telling you about how she's been kind of pro-immigration, right?
She decided, like Spain, to allow for 500,000 migrants to come and be able to work in Italy.
And that was sort of a shocker.
And I think everybody was like, what is she doing?
What is she doing?
And she made some excuses about the economy and how they need more workers, et cetera.
I mean, I don't know. I think that they can barely keep everybody employed there in Italy.
You really don't need to be bringing in everybody from Morocco to fill in the gaps because you don't have any gaps.
Anyway, she did this, much like Pedro Sanchez did, and it really had me questioning.
And I think a lot of people, Marco Rubio, at state, and of course the President of the United States, who was done with her,
because she would not allow for us to use our own base there in Sicily, that we've spent hundreds of millions of dollars keeping up.
We have a ton of bases there in Italy, and she's effectively cutting us off from all of that.
So she's not quite the person that we thought she was.
And yet today, she's coming out very, very emphatic on this.
So, you know, credit where credits do, I'll take it where I can get it.
And I think that this is the right move.
She has Spain so worried right now.
And they are calling immediately for diplomatic meetings.
They are demanding that she sit down with them to discuss this because she's like,
Schengen is over.
Those open borders are over.
We can't trust you people because clearly you got some issues going.
I mean, a lot of issues going on.
You got a lot of people.
Storm in the border.
You have totally...
You've totally lost control.
Okay, so you've totally lost control.
I think that's pretty evident to everyone.
So Georgia Maloney making this point,
and she's not the only one.
Georgia Maloney is making the point.
You've got Germany's Chancellor, Fred Mertz, Friedrich.
Merz saying enough is enough is enough.
You have the E.E.E.
you president, whatever you want to call her, Ursula, Ursula, Van der Leyen, who's like, this is
unbelievable. They've all come out with statements today. And it's actually not that unbelievable,
if you think about it, because Sanchez was inviting them. I keep getting back to that. Like,
you know, you reap what you sow, okay? We had the same problem in the US of A. I mean, it didn't
happen in one day. It happened over four years, but we had millions and millions and millions of people
flooding our borders. And there was nothing they could do about it because once you telegraphed,
this information. Once you telegraph, hey, come one, come all. Believe me, they do. And they did.
Look at that. This is all fresh video coming into us just within the last 24 hours, guys.
And they say they claim the New York Times, you know, I don't necessarily trust the New York Times.
They want you to think that they get a handle on that this, they're sending somewhere around,
I don't know, 38,000 of them back, but that would still mean you've got a good, you know, 28,000
still there. I think you got a real problem now. And I think you got a real problem now. And I
I think this possibly could lead to the entire downfall of Europe.
I'm just going to say it because I've never believed in this whole open border thing that they were pushing in the EU to begin with.
I mean, it sounds nice, right?
But it's kind of a big old fantasy.
And you can't have that kind of open system if you don't have one governing body that is really and truly in charge of it all.
We saw it with Greece and the Greek debt crisis, right?
Because what happens?
Some people pay their bills and some people don't.
And so if the Germans are the industrialists that are there, you know, paying the bills and
paying the taxes and everybody in Greece is just having a grand old time and living high off the hog but
not actually paying into the system. They all have a swimming pool, but nobody pays the swimming pool
tax. Then you've got yourself a problem. Well, if you have a European country like Spain that is
allowing for this kind of unchecked migration to come in, then how's that going to work with the rest
of Europe if you've got an open border system? And by the way, how's it going to work with us? Because we don't
want Europeans coming here if we can't decide or know or understand who's actually coming in.
So you see how bad this starts to get. And you understand like the people are angry.
The people are angry as they should be. I would just say this. You know what? You've got to get
this under control. You really do. You've got to get it under control because if you don't,
it really could lead to the fall of Europe. France is begging.
them to get in under control. France up Spanish border checks as Schengen unity wobbles over
Ceuta crisis. This is according to political. France moved to reinforce checks along its border
with Spain after a surge of migrant arrivals came in Ceuta, fueling fresh political pressure on Europe's
passport-free travel zone. How do you have a passport-free travel zone when you got all those
people that have suddenly been allowed in? I mean, I hate to point out the obvious, but French Center,
presidential candidate,
Eduardo Philippe, is actually using this to his advantage.
Believe me, they all will, as they should, as they should,
because this can't be allowed to happen.
European response, he's saying we need a European response to this entire crisis.
Stressing his country must immediately strengthen the control of the border.

With Spain, duh, not a single migrant, he said, should be allowed to enter national territory
illegally. France is, of course, part of that Schengen area, but has repeatedly renewed its
authorization to proceed with temporary internal border checks since November 2015 Paris terrorist
attacks using provisions in the Schengen border code per Politico that allow such matters and
measures in response to security threats.
Serious security threats. I mean, we remember that. I remember that. I was working at Fox
at the time. I was sitting in my offices all that transpired. It was actually the first time I
saw Seb Gorka. I saw him on TV. I don't know if you guys watch him, but or in the past,
if you've watched him, he's terrific and he's now in the administration. But I was like,
that guy is good. And I remember watching him that evening. We got him on the show the next day.
Actually, it was Monday because I think it was a Friday night that that happened. And he really
crystallized what this threat truly is. And this is a threat that is a religious threat, that is a
political threat, that is a threat indeed to our culture. And so we're seeing it happen right now.
We've got to respond. And you've got to, all of these countries have got to respond. So Philippe is not
wrong. And don't forget, Marie Delapen is going to be running in the French election for president.
This is something that's going to help fuel her success. The images of people pouring into say you
an autonomous city of about 80,000 people, they write,
and one of the EU's only two land borders with Africa
have drawn scrutiny far beyond Paris,
especially among far-right-wing parties across Europe,
who seized on the incident for heightened restrictions on migration.
Well, I mean, does that really have to be that far right?
Like, doesn't that just kind of seem like a normal thing?
Because you can't have that?
Like, you can't have that.
The town is only 80,000 strong,
and you got 60,000 coming in overnight,
and you expect everybody to roll over and play dead?
No way, Jose.
No way, Mohammed, okay?
Here, I want to go to Great Britain News, G.B. News, great, you know,
like they're the only conservatives I can find on TV in the UK.
Anyway, they're talking about possibly an end to the Schengen Agreement altogether.
The Schengen zone, which Spain is part of, and which, by the way, Gibraltar recently joined as well.
There's literally no border, but then no physical border.
You know, there's a sign, but it's more like crossing a county boundary,
here in the UK.
So between them and, for example, the Channel Coast,
Germany and various other countries.
It's why, for example, Italy's taken the stance it's taken today
that if Spain cannot get control of its border,
that clearly that will mean Italy will wish to review
whether it maintains an open border with Spain.
And you can see the efforts countries like Poland are going to
to secure the eastern land border.
But under the Schengen Agreement,
is it even legal for, can Italy,
technically do that? Or would Brussels start?
Well, there are provisions within the Schengen treaties to be able to temporarily,
in an emergency circumstances, reinstate border controls. But even then, you've got a question
how effective that can be across large, fairly porous land borders, which don't have fences
and infrastructure and checkpoints. You know, you literally, you know, ask the police to just
pull up on the motorway and start doing some checks. That is only going to be effective to a certain
extent. Really, Spain is to get a grip of this. Pedro Sanchez needs to
review his policies, particularly around granting an amnesty, and like probably he would say in the
UK, you also need to have a solution to returning people quickly.
Yeah. You know, look, they're not wrong. It's not an easy thing necessarily to do. It's a multilateral
treaty, the Schengen Agreement, that is, that's embedded into EU law. And so amending it would
really require agreement from other participating countries. But it seems like when you consider what
the State Department from the U.S. of A put out, we are encouraging other countries to embrace some
kind of new Schengen agreement. And you're seeing a response there from France. You're seeing a
response from Germany, all positive because I think they're realizing that this is kind of out of
control. Italy is just one vote among many. They could temporarily, meanwhile, reintroduce some of these
border controls, much like France had the opportunity to do following that 2015 terror attack. So a
member state can reinstate checks, and they can do that at internal borders for limited periods of
time if there is this serious threat to public policy and internal security, including secondary
migration flows. Now, one of the interesting things with this Sayuta crisis for Spain is that
it doesn't consider migration invasions to be security threats, really. I mean, they just don't
consider it's part of their own.
ultra-liberal policy, which is why there's some irony in all of this, that it's coming back
to hit them and hit them hard. Donald Trump was right. He promised them that they were going to
see their country destroyed. It's in fact what we're seeing in real time here as we watch
all of this migration inflow into Spain, into Sayuta Spain, 60,000 people coming in, 60,000,
I repeat, into a town of 80,000 people overnight.
It's just unbelievable, unprecedented.
I don't think we've ever seen anything like it.
I mean, unless you want to go back to the Crusades and, you know, the 7-Eleven and that sort of thing.
Killing you.
He's killing your country.
And not him.
I mean, we'll have to see.
I know Starmer did very little about it.
And they're coming from all over the world.
They're coming from Africa.
They're coming from South America.
They're coming from different parts of Asia.
And they're invading Europe.
I mean, they're invading Europe.
It's an invasion.
And the U.K. is a prime suspect.
Okay, so he's really taking aim at the U.K.
Because it's one of the countries that he so specifically spoke about urgently telling Starmor all the time.
You've got to fix it.
You've got to fix it.
Starmor eventually was out.
But he's told Spain as well.
And, you know, Spain, what do you do with Spain when you get a nut job running the thing?
But, you know, the U.K. is a great example.
They were supposed to have been out in front of this.
right? The UK was supposed to have stopped all this.
As Nigel Farage pointed out today, he did a little video I want to show you because he's like,
wait a second, you know, this is what Brexit was supposed to be about.
And yet here we are again.
And you're going to have all these people coming in to Europe.
And how are we protecting ourselves? How?
It's time to wake up, everybody. No, I really mean it.
Just have a look at these scenes.
This is happening today in Kuwait.
the Spanish enclave in North Africa.
Yep, it is Spanish territory.
Tens of thousands, maybe more,
breaking in to that little part of Spain.
The authorities seemingly powerless to act.
Some of you might remember a poster I put out
10 years ago called Breaking Point,
where I showed vast numbers
illegally breaking into the European Union.
I made the point that if we vote for Brexit,
we'll have the power to stop those people coming here.
Sadly, the Tories failed us,
Labor have failed us. Believe me, unless we get a reform government, those scenes you're seeing in Spain today, many of those young men, lots of them dangerous, will be heading towards Calais and coming to our country too. It is time to wake up. This is a battle for the future of our civilization. I can't put it any more plainly than that.
It certainly feels that way, doesn't it? It certainly feels that way. And we've been through it. Have we not for battle for our civilization?
I mean, do the Democrats want us to be Spain?
Do the Democrats want us to be Europe?
I think sometimes they do, actually, in more ways than one.
Socialism being a prime sort of baby for them.
They just love.
They never met any kind of tax that they didn't just love, right?
So now you've got a situation where we see all this unfolding,
and it kind of reminds me of back in the day
when we were seeing something very similar during the Biden administration,
and the DHS secretary was like, calm down, calm down,
nothing to see here.
This is my, my orcas, remember, when we were in the throes of it?
That the challenges of the border are very complex and dynamic.
All right, well, I'm going to take from that that if you can't answer yes, then the answer is no.
That is, that is not true.
All right, so then you're saying all nine are secure.
It is my testimony that the border is secure, and we are working every day, day and night to increase its security.
Yeah, day and night to increase the security.
And then you see this. Okay, you see this. That's what we were up against. That's what we were up against. And, you know, you've seen the images. There's a ton of them. They look a lot like what you're seeing in Sayuta, Spain. And you're just going to say, is this really what would have happened to the U.S.? Are we still in jeopardy of having this happen to the U.S.? Every time I turn another debate on with some socialist ranting and raving here in the U.S. What do I see them talking about how we need, how we need these open borders and how they're going to be.
going to get rid of ice. And it's like, guys, no, in fact, Trump is doing the opposite. He came out
just yesterday, very proud that he's ended the 24,000 driver's license for any migrants that couldn't
speak English or were here illegally. Listen to this. The last year alone, illegal aliens with
commercial driver's licenses caused at least 30 deaths and many, many very seriously injured.
As president, I made it our official policy to enforce English language requirements for truck
drivers and support American truckers on American roadways. We've already removed more than 24,000 non-English
speakers from behind the wheel. We've also forced states to cancel more than 28,000 commercial
drivers licenses unlawfully issued to illegal aliens. They were given illegally. As we get illegal
aliens off the roads today, we're also taking action to replace these unqualified migrant
truck drivers with highly qualified American veterans.
So in other words, he's worn the EU, he's worn the UK, he's warned Italy, he's warned
Spain, not that Spain never listens, but he said this over and over and over again, and yet
none of them are really listening.
As for the US of A, I would say, yeah, he warned us, right?
And he's back in the Oval Office in Park because people were so upset.
said about all this. I want to go to a new poll that's coming out here, CNN reporting that
Democrats really are overwhelmingly identifying less and less with the Democrat Party.
These are the independents. This is kind of important to consider because in light of these
pictures coming to us overnight and say who to Spain, in light of what we've been through
on our own border challenges here ourselves, I think this is kind of relevant. Here we go.
I think there's this idea perhaps in democratic circles. Oh, there are.
coming in from the outside. No, no. The call is coming from inside the House. It's your own
voters. I mean, just take a look here. Voters identifying as Democratic Socialists. When you look at
self-identified Democrats, and we're talking about voters, we're talking about 41 percent, 41 percent
of self-identified Democratic voters. It's not coming from outside the tent because just 20 percent
of them-leaning independents actually identify as Democratic Socialists. These are Democratic voters.
These are people who voted for Kamala Harris.
These are people now where we're talking about a little bit more than two in five Democratic voters who identify is Democratic socialists.
Okay, so he's saying two in five Democrat voters identify as Democrat socialists.
But what's really important to know is that when you get to the independence, no one identifies as a Democrat socialist.
Okay.
So, you know, this may be playing in some European circles of the Democrat Party, but not
overall in the Democrat Party, nor in the section of independence that often decide these
elections.
So I would just say, again, all of this stuff is linked.
I think, I suspect that this was deliberate.
When I look at what is happening, when I look at the scenes coming to us out of Seuta, Spain,
and I see Sanchez up there trying to sing a song and dance about how.
you know, he didn't
he didn't think this should happen.
And here he is speaking in Spanish,
but basically the gist of it is that he's going to put all his resources,
all his government against this,
and he's going to make sure that this autonomous city of Ceuta
is in fact staying autonomous,
and this invasion, he talks about it,
being really them trying to conquer the territory,
is unacceptable.
But here's my question for you.
Who is this guy?
Because this is the guy that the Iranians were thanking when they sent their first missile out over drone, forgive me, into Israel.
They had a thank you note addressed to little Pedrito Sanchez on there.
And so when I look at the horrors that are transpiring, and they are horrors.
You hear this?
Alu Akbar is one of the chance they're giving us as they make their way into the Spanish territory of Ceuta.
They're screaming out Alu Akbar.
They're screaming out Viva Spania.
And I'm thinking about little Sanchez because Sanchez is the one who invited him all.
And he's the one that the Iranians absolutely positively love.
I mean, the Chinese loved his predecessor.
In fact, Huawei,
got built into the whole 5G system in Spain because of it's reported a corruption situation
between this guy on the screen, Pedrito Sanchez, this guy's benefactor or mentor and China.
I'm just trying to put two and two together here, okay?
So think about what's transpiring. Think about these people coming in. Think about how Spain
has refused, refused to do what it needs to do for NATO, refused to even recognize that it has
borders. It's just invited everybody in and then turns around and says, well, gosh, what's going
on? Can't believe this is happening. Well, don't look at us. We're the ones that told you over
and over again. And we told you you've got to actually pay up and contribute to NATO. And you gave
us the middle finger, right? Remember this?
To Spain. Spain is a wasted cause. We don't want to do any trade business with Spain anymore,
by the way, I'd like you to cut it up.
Spain is a
terrible partner in NATO.
They don't participate.
They don't pay.
I don't want anything to do with Spain.
Cut off all trade with Spain, please.
Including visits.
Okay, we don't want anything to do.
Watch them come running back.
Oh, they'll come running back.
They treat...
It's very interesting.
Did you hear him say including visits?
So that's travel.
This was just a couple of weeks ago
at the big NATO meeting.
And there's some talk that Marco Rubio and the State Department,
they were already very clued in to the challenge that would be Ceuta,
and they considered that a territory that was very vulnerable
to an invasion from this Moroccan Muslim population
of young military-aged men.
And you see the president here, actually,
he's looking off-camera is the Treasury Secretary Besson,
and he's telling Besson, we want to cut all trade,
and he said, travel.
And I think that's interesting because as we began the show, and we were talking about Marco Rubio and possibly suspension of travel with some of our European friends, specifically the ones out of Spain, and challenges and controversy that that would cause because, you know, you got Spain, you got the whole EU, it seems.
They might need to be looking at separating themselves or taking Spain out of the equation and rethinking this entire agreement.
But let's just go back and hear the rest of it, because he is threatening to cut off trade with Spain.
and he is threatening to cut off travel.
This man terribly, and this man's a good man, too, great man.
They're lucky they have them.
But Spain doesn't agree to anything, and you shouldn't carry them.
I mean, you sort of automatically carry it because you're protecting an area.
So they're there.
So they probably figured they have to protect us, right?
But we don't have to.
We don't have to trade with them.
I don't want to do any more trade with them, all right?
Take it immediately.
Don't even talk to them.
They're hopeless.
Bad people.
because, you know, they have everybody else going and paying and working in Spain, in particular Spain.
There are a couple of others, but in particular Spain, they're open about it, they're hostile about it.
And let's see a hustle.
They remain when they call up and they, please, please, we want to trade with you, sir.
We want to trade with you, sir.
They make so much money with us and we're going to see that they make a lot less.
I want no business with them.
Well, you might get that sooner than you thought, all right?
No business.
Cat Crazy Sam pointing out so many, meaning so many people, so many migrants, so fast, so organized, so planned.
I got to tell you, it is organized, it is planned.
Let me show you, I think I have some video.
We've got trucks that were filling up with people nearby the border.
And in little towns, roughly 45 minutes to an hour outside of Sayou,
they were filling these trucks with people.
Look at this.
We'll get to these pictures.
Do you see all the people in those trucks?
And they were literally driving them to Seuta.
So this didn't just come out of thin air.
And again, I would repeat that Marco Rubio, I am told, was very aware of this threat in Seuta,
has been very focused on this threat in Seuta.
And I think when I consider what the president was saying at the last NATO meeting
and his disgust overall for Spain and suggest,
not only would we cut off all trade with Spain,
but he was also suggesting looking at cutting off
all travel with Spain.
These are actually things that, you know,
I think they were very aware of,
and this administration, they weren't born yesterday,
they are no dummies,
and I think they were worried and concerned about this
for some time.
Again, when you look at this and you realize
you've got 60,000 people,
somebody had to get them there.
somebody had to get them to the border and they did somebody had to transport them somebody had to
select them i mean again lots of young men young military age men i know we keep saying that but it's
not like this is a refugee thing with lots of women and kids this is not refugees this is like
something that's very planned which has me saying okay how much did pedro sanchise actually know about
this beforehand because he is the guy that says
hey, we'll give you amnesty. And when we consider that, just again, remember, it's like history
repeating itself. History repeating itself. It's one of the reasons why we love to study history.
I've always been a student of history. It was my specialty in school. I like economic history
especially. But the Moors conquered Spain in 7-Eleven, and they conquered it literally through this
exact same area, the exact same thing. And it took Spain 800 years, 800 years to get its country
back. And one of you guys was saying, where is Ferdinand and Isabella when we need them? And I'll tell you,
that's well said, because it didn't actually come back under Christian rule until 1492. And so
you're going to just throw it all away? You're throwing it all away. It's what it seems to be
happening when you look at these pictures and you see your beaches getting flooded with tens of thousands,
60,000 people overnight. I've never seen anything like this. I've never seen it. I mean, the closest we've
seen is some of the stuff that we saw at our own border, but it wasn't quite like this.
Not quite like this. So they're going to have to, they're going to have to, we have to think
about what is our relationship with Europe under these circumstances when we learn that they're
basically, you know, sending all of these people in, filling trucks at the border,
sending them in in a very sort of controlled and designed way. And this is, you know,
you know, obviously a lot, but it's been going on since around the COVID time.
It really spiked up during COVID, but it was actually going on even before that.
I mean, if I show you this graphic, I want to show you it's just a little rendering of all
the illegal migrants that have been swarming Europe from the Middle East, from Africa,
over the last decade going up through 24.
Take a peek here.
We'll watch it together.
It's really remarkable.
And it started really, according to this, back in like 2008, 2009.
And you can see it just gets bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger.
And you also see how those numbers change of where people are coming from.
Syria, Afghanistan, Algeria, Turkey, Morocco are the biggies.
And, of course, as we look at what's going on right now, a lot coming from Morocco.
But you're not supposed to talk about this in Europe, right?
You're just a crazy right-winger if you talk about this.
In fact, I was looking at some video of this woke Spanish politician who's like, you know, one of these,
she's like a little Mamdami.
She must be one of his backup singers over there in Spain singing away about how bad
that anybody is that can test this even for a second.
Kia, we make things just for college life,
like the Rosen Mando blackout curtains in gray.
They say you can't put a price on sleep,
but we did for the low, low price of $49.
Why are you in my room?
Shh, go back to sleep.
You have a big exam tomorrow.
Shop back to school at IKEA.
She says, I want to ask you migrants about migrants and radicalized people, please do not leave us with all these fascists.
And of course, we want them to vote, meaning the migrants.
We've managed to get them papers.
They're regular now.
And next we're going to get them citizenship or change the law so that they can vote.
I hope that replacement theory, she said, can help us sweep into the country clean of fascists and racist people with migrants.
and working class people.
Of course I want there to be a replacement.
Replacement of fascists, racist, freeloaders,
and I want us to do it with the working class of this country,
no matter their skin color, whether they're Chinese,
black, or brown, with all the working class comrades,
oh, she actually says comrades of this country.
And sure enough, it seems to be exactly what she's getting,
again, as we see all of these people coming in,
leading us to kind of question, again,
the motives and the planning that went into all of this.
Because Sanchez is not doing this in a vacuum.
You saw that young politician and what she was saying.
We've seen what Sanchez has said.
We've seen the policies he's enacted.
Inviting everybody there.
And I would just say, okay, they're there.
You're going to have a big old problem.
A big old problem.
And we just don't want that problem here in the United States.
I mean, Elon Musk, he's jumping into the conversation.
And Elon Musk is jumping back into politics with a big old super PAC.
very interesting timing for him. Like he definitely does not want us to be this. Not at all.
In fact, he's come out pretty outspokenly against all of this migration.
Elon's saying even recently in that interview with the economist how against this kind of migration.
So now he's putting in a new $100 million super pack to help none other than MAGA as we get ready for these midterm elections.
And the left is really upset about it, of course.
But look, he's been very out in front of some of these social issues and saying, you know, you shouldn't be calling somebody a radical or extremist because they don't want to be invaded.
And they don't want to be invaded by a culture that's completely different in the antithesis of their own.
Like, we have a culture, a great culture, by the way, we've become the toast of the town, right?
The success of the world in the United States of America, thanks to our values, Anglo values that are very much based on a Protestant
you know, Judeo-Christian work ethic and a sense of law and order and a sense of property
rights that were baked into the Constitution. And none of these people have this, which is why
they're fleeing their crazy lands. And Elon Musk does not want them fleeing to America or fleeing
to the rest of Europe and making everything else crazy too. This came up. Again, let me go to
the economist interview and then we'll talk about the Democrats because they are freaking out,
freaking out the idea that Elon's getting back in with a boatload of cash.
Are you anti-Muslim?
I am
I'm against
having
if people are coming to a country
with
antithetical views
I am against that
I'm against
that you know I'm against
I'm against
rapes
and murder, I'm against the imposition of rules and laws that are contrary to what we've come to
accept in the West.
Yeah.
You know, and somehow he's the crazy one for saying that?
I don't think so.
I mean, he also pointed out in that same interview, like, hey, I'm kind of normal.
And in fact, I'm so normal that 15 years ago, if you go back in time,
you would hear Hillary Clinton say this. You would hear Barack Obama say this. In fact, all of the
Democrat Party said this. I mean, even Bernie Sanders was like, no, you can't have open borders.
In other words, we get to take care of the people that are here first. And yet, just because of
the TDS, and we've talked about this, I mean, I think they were so desperate to distinguish themselves
as different from Trump. And yet he kept stealing all their policies. And he then became the champion
of the working class. And they were like, what are we got? Oh, we got the migrants. Okay.
You know, we're going to just invite everyone here. And I think they had the attitude that the Spanish
politician I played for you earlier had, which was, you know, come on, come all, and we will make
sure that you're eventually able to vote. We will make you citizens and then you will elect us.
And so there's a method to the madness. But he's getting back into politics and he's getting
back in hard, baby. Take a look at this. 100 million bucks is the expectation for Elon Musk.
And I bet you we know there's more where that came from. If he needs to, he's going even further
into his pockets. Listen to them flipping out over on CNN.
on Musk about to make a massive investment to boost Republican turnout for the midterms.
It's a big bet, and Axios is breaking this news just now.
Musk's representatives are declining to say just how much Musk is planning to spend, but they
told Axios the number is expected to be high. Now, obviously, Musk is the richest man in the
world, so high could be absolutely anything. And just the only context we have is that he spent
more than a quarter of a billion dollars in the 2024 election. Out front,
now, Alex Eisenstadt, the Axios White House senior political reporter who just broke this story.
So Alex, you know, as I said, a quarter of a billion dollars last time, and this is a guy who's
gotten a lot, lot, lot richer since then. I mean, that's pocket change for him. What's your sense
of how much money Musk could be about to spend? Definitely in the tens of millions, if not hundreds of
millions. This is going to be a very in-depth effort, and Elon Musk is going to be playing an incredibly
central role now in the GOP's fall turnout efforts in basically spearheading, door-knocking voter turnout
efforts for the party. So he is now going to be a very key figure as Republicans try to maintain
control of both chambers of Congress, which is not going to be necessarily easy to do.
Yeah, I mean, obviously, odds are, if you look at it now, that that would not happen,
but I know Speaker Johnson has indicated optimism.
I'm curious what your sense is from you reporting, Alex, that, you know, the specificity of this,
that it's on voter turnout specifically, right?
What does that say to you in terms of where the Republican focus is, that Musk would have that
specificity?
Sure.
So, Musk has been talking with the Trump team.
This has been playing out in recent weeks and recent months.
And what Musk wants to do is to focus on low propensity voters, people who are, in other words,
less likely to turn out to the polls, especially in a non-presidential election year, right?
So some voters might be a little less motivated to turn out when a presidential election isn't on the ballot.
And that's who Musk is going to be focused on.
So he's focused on that.
And that's actually kind of important because let's face it.
oftentimes the people that come out in midterm elections are the people that kind of have an axe to grind, right?
They're kind of annoyed.
They're upset.
And that's what gets them to the polls.
And so you run this risk that people come out just to vote their displeasure in what's going on.
And then the consequences of that could be pretty darn severe.
So it's smart that he's doing this.
In other words, you've got to get people out there.
I want to go to Scott Jennings, who had some interesting remarks on this as well.
Thank God, because he was an integral part of the report.
Republicans winning in 2024, and the party needs him.
And he's going to be better off, I think, with Republicans than Democrats for the rest of his life.
But, you know, it's interesting.
When I interviewed Elon for the book that I wrote about President Trump's first hundred days in office,
I could tell then, this was last year, that he was kind of been out of shape with both parties in Washington.
He didn't think there were enough people in Washington who shared his concerns about the national debt,
the immigration crisis, you know, the looming what he thinks is maybe a bankruptcy crisis for the United States.
United States of America when you consider $40 trillion in debt. So I can understand why if you're
disappointed with everybody, you wouldn't want to spend much money on politics. But for right now,
given the stakes of this election and given the fact that Western civilization is on the ballot,
and I know how much he cares about that, I'm glad to see him come to the Republican Party.
Yeah, I mean, he's right, that Western civilization is effectively on the ballot. I mean,
that's what we're seeing right now. And, you know, it could just as easily be Texas.
because Texas shares the border with Mexico, you've got Spain sharing that border with Morocco.
It's really, really kind of striking.
So Elon's getting back into the game, and I consider that a very good thing.
I saw a piece of my mind you were tweeting something that I've said before quite often,
which is that we have Elon to thank, right, for buying Twitter,
which actually made it much easier to get information out there.
So many of them did not want information getting out there.
They still don't want information getting out there.
It's why the FCC is now clamping down on places like ABC that has the view, because the view is not in the FCC's estimation any kind of news program whatsoever, right? It's definitely not. We've talked about this before. Well, now the FCC chief is coming out against it. He actually sent this tweet out late last night. Disney is arguing to the FCC that its ABC show, the view is a bona fide news program. Disney claims that its decisions are based on its newsworthiness rather than partisan purposes in this exemplar.
from political equal time rules.
Again, if you're thinking about the fighting
for the Western civilization, right?
Maybe, granted, don't believe me,
I'm a huge First Amendment supporter.
But when it comes to news programs,
they do have sort of a different code of ethics
than, say, the entertainment shows.
And this really is kind of an entertainment show.
I think we all know that.
And if it's not an entertainment show,
let's go a little bit further and classify it
as a show for the DNC,
like it's an arm of the Democratic.
Party. I want to show you what the FCC tweeted out. This is Brendan Carr put this one out. And hey,
you judge, you tell me, is this really a bona fide news program or is this a political op?
As long as Republicans are in power in the majority, there will never be accountability.
There will never be checks and balances. There will never be oversight. And so if Americans want
this to end, want the abuses of power check, they have got to vote Democrats in November.
White women, Republicans, I just read a poll that the suburb.
Bourbons are now voting Republican.
That is like roaches voting for raids.
You're not voting for Republicans.
You're voting for a cult.
Remember that.
I want Donald Trump to lose, and I don't feel like today's
that he doesn't have the economy argument.
This is the kind of thing that I don't even know what to say anymore.
If people still follow this fascist pig, then I don't know what else to say.
25th Amendment is time.
It's time.
It's ridiculous.
It's the bill that would force people to,
have ID when they come to vote.
Nobody wants it.
The Save America Act, which is ironic,
because it's really saving his behind.
They are the Epstein File,
protection party.
You'd be comfortable still voting for Graham Platner
if you lived in Maine?
I was one of those people, and I said it.
If I lived in Maine, I would have
plugged my nose, and I would have
voted for him anyway. I think that we are in a time
of existential crisis. We need to be
realistic, and as a Democratic...
As a Democratic Party, we need to...
We need to get this country, Debbie.
You know what to do on Election Day.
You know what to...
This is...
We'll be right back.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
Like, I guess Maga really needs Elon
to be spending $100 million in a super pack
because it's got free advertising nonstop on airwaves
owned by Disney and ABC every single day.
I'm sorry, guys.
That is not a news program.
It's just not.
Like, if you want to do that kind of comment,
you can do it actually on cable, no problem.
You can actually do it all you want, over here on YouTube.
I dare you to come compete with me, whoopee, over here on YouTube.
I think I would win that battle.
Anyway, when you are being broadcast over FCC, taxpayer-owned and controlled airwaves,
then you have a duty via the 1934 Communications Act to actually present both sides.
Or you're subject to a whole different set of rules.
So I suspect what the FCC is going to rule here is that they are not a bona fide news program.
They are not newsworthy.
They're an entertainment show.
And because they're an entertainment show, they're going to be subject to different rules,
meaning they have to have two sides on.
If they want to tout one side, they're going to have to bring on the other side as well.
And I think that's kind of a healthy thing to do.
Don't you?
Tell me, I'm curious.
Don't you?
Yeah.
Because we need both sides.
I mean, we can't just keep having Jazzy Crockett on all day for good.
and his six. Jazzie Crockett and her band of troubadours. The other guy, the little Jimmy
Teller Rico, remember him, Jimmy Teller Rico, who's running against Ken Paxton there in Texas?
Ken may need some of that money because apparently nobody's reaching into their deep pockets
for Ken Paxton's campaign there in Texas. Anyway, Jasmine got to go on the view and Jimmy
Telerico got to go on the view. You think any Republican got to go on the view? No, these two were
like doing handstands one day after another. And that was,
one of the things that kind of ticked off the FCC as well. But this lady, Jazzy, I got some,
I got some news for her, for her. You should hear her. This is the latest and greatest. She did some
public appearance recently and she just can't help herself. I don't know if she's deliberately lying
or she just is absolutely clueless and has no sense of reality. But for some reason,
she thinks that the most educated group of people in the entire country happen to be black women.
Wow. I mean, if that's the case, then, Jazzy, what are you fighting?
for because it seems like you got it all already, all those fancy degrees, right?
You need to talk to any and everybody about voting because as they have the conversation about a monolith,
no, we are not a monolith, but certain things apply to all of us.
Number one, when they decided to go after quote unquote DEI,
black women, the most educated demographic in this country somehow ended up the most unemployed
out of everyone.
Like that is whether you, I'm just saying there are certain targets that don't miss any of us no matter who we think we are.
And as the next thing that a lot of you will most likely participate in will be the press conference from my big brother, Ben Crump,
let me be clear about something.
The way that they investigate, the travesties that happened to us, that is not something that only certain people endure.
We are a monolith when we end up being done.
targeted by law enforcement or when we end up being disrespected as victims and there is no
investigation. So understand there is a baseline no matter who you are as a black person that we
all end up in the same boat. Okay, so she's kind of all over the place there, typical jazzy style.
But one thing that kind of stuck out at me is this idea that somehow black women are the most
educated group in all of America. So I think actually, Jazzy, it's Asian Americans that are the
most educated group. And I would bet you that Asian women are more educated than black women.
So Asian Americans tend to be the most educated. Now, if you're just comparing black men and
black women, then yes, I would say that overwhelmingly you've actually seen more black women
go on to higher education than black men. Now, there are a lot of reasons for that. I would cite
family issues, the lack of a man in the home, a role model. These are things that are really important
to having two parents in the house, right? You've heard me say this before, very, very important
to the economic and social foundation of a family. And so a lot of people in the black community
don't have that. Jasmine did, by the way, she benefited from that two-parent situation. And yet
is perfectly willing to strip it away from anyone,
else. I would just say, though, it's kind of amusing, right? Like, it's just sort of amusing that
they make up these things and they think that, you know, you're just supposed to nod your head and go
along with it. Well, fortunately, she's gone, she's done, she's out of office. Couldn't happen
fast enough to a nicer person, right? Whoa, we get some serious stuff here going on overseas.
NATO territory reportedly hit, Poland hit by a Russian drone. This is new video.
coming into us. I want to share with you the NATO territory hit with that Russian drone in Poland.
And so this was recorded on this camera. Wow. So, you know, there's some dispute over this. I think the Russians are not owning up to this.
But Poland is saying it indeed was hit by this drone. Let's just watch this quickly.
Okay, so again, that's coming to us from Poland.
Actually, was there a little bit more there?
Let me see.
Yeah, take a look.
So these are the drones.
You can see the video of the drones there in the air.
And Poland saying that this was sent by Russia.
And so they're pretty upset, understandably.
This is a big deal in that NATO has been warning over and over and over again about the possibility of Russia hitting them.
This has been a constant theme.
And now, as you look at the front page there in the Washington Post today, the Russian
missile landed in Poland amid strikes on Ukraine. So apparently this one, and Poland has argued that
it was not actually deliberately sent into Poland. It just kind of happened because it was trying to
send it into Ukraine. And so this happened around 3.40 a.m. European time, Polish radar was
tracking that move. An F-16 was scrambled, I guess, to intercept, but the object disappeared before
radar about six minutes later, so I don't believe that they used it. The impact created a crater, however,
10 meters wide, five meters deep. Good news, nobody was hurt, nobody was injured, no buildings were
damaged. The nearest houses are said to have been about two kilometers away. But the Polish Prime
Minister Donald Tusk and other officials have come out and cited this being a Russian KH101
cruise missiles. So they are saying Russia is indeed responsible for this. And the head of NATO,
the Secretary General, Mark Root, is out with a tweet today in which he writes,
discussed with Donald Tusk's violation of Poland's airspace by Russian missile. Poland and NATO
activated their air and ground defenses. We stand in solidarity with Poland and will continue to
strengthen our readiness to defend against any threat, including missile attacks. This incident
is yet another reckless act by Russia and a dangerous consequence of its war against Ukraine.
I condemned last night steadily its strikes across Ukraine. NATO continues to provide
essential support so Ukraine can defend itself. One commitment is unwavering. All right. So think about
everything that's happening right now. You've got migrants storming the border in Spain, 60,000 of them
overnight. I find this timing kind of interesting. While simultaneously NATO is on its last legs,
because, you know, Spain won't contribute any money, but somehow Spain gets the 60,000 migrants in the
door. You just wonder if there's some kind of connection for this because like it's all kind of
happening at the same time. And I find that interesting. I also think it's interesting that Laura Lumer
went over to Ukraine. Laura Lumer is very popular with the MAGA base of supporters. And she kind of
seemed to be, I don't know, maybe just greasing the wheels because she's been very, very anti-Ukraine,
hasn't wanted Ukraine spending. And now all of a sudden, woo, you know, like it's, she's all for it.
She does this 180.
I don't fully think that was all her.
I think that there was some kind of planning that went into that.
And perhaps, dare I say, you know, they asked her to do them a favor.
Somebody asked her to do them a favor because it looked like maybe we would have to get more involved.
Don't forget, we sent 5,000 troops to Poland quite recently.
We yanked them out of Germany and we sent them into Poland.
So you've got NATO needing to up its spending.
Spain again is the outlier. Spain says we don't want anything to do with this. Spain, meanwhile, has 60,000 migrants stampede its border overnight coming right into Europe, all as Europe is in a more and more precarious position vis-a-vis whatever's going on with Russia, whatever's going on with Ukraine. You know, I don't want to string together any kind of definitive conclusion at this point. I'm actually curious to hear what you guys think about this too, but you know, you could ask,
whether there's some kind of planning here on the Iranian front. Don't forget, Iran is besties with Russia.
So, and besties, right, with China. So there's kind of an axis.
Didn't we used to call it the axis of evil, right? You get the access of evil there, Russia, China, Iran.
And now Spain is besties with Iran. Spain is the country that has the 60,000 migrants coming in.
it's all happening as NATO now appears to be at odds with Russia and Ukraine, of course,
is also at odds, obviously, with Russia.
So just think about that, right?
As we progress here over the next couple of days and we think through what's really going
down, we've got to be sort of aware of all angles here.
Meanwhile, you've got effectively an act of war.
I mean, you've got Iran targeting Minnesota water.
This is under investigation. This is an unbelievable story. And I'm like, why Minnesota?
Why? Think about why Minnesota? Did they have cooperation from anybody in Minnesota?
Isn't that like Ilhan Omar's prime territory? Why Minnesota? Listen to this story, ABC News reporting.
Minnesota possible cyber attacks attacking the water supply and they think Iran is behind it. NBC News also had the story.
This is tell ABC News, federal and state authorities are investigating a series of cyber attacks targeting dozens of water.
plants in Minnesota. Investigators believe Iran-linked hackers may be responsible. Here's ABC's
Chief Justice correspondent, Pierre Thomas. Tonight, state officials and the FBI are trying to
determine who is behind a wide-scale cyber attack targeting more than 30 water treatment systems
in the state of Minnesota. In one case, the hackers were actually able to shut down the
flow of water from the well and water treatment plant in the tiny city of Brom, forcing officials to
provide clean water to residents already stored in its water tower. In a statement, the city says
it was informed that there were at least four other communities attacked with the same result.
When an event like this comes up where we can run in manual operations just to ensure the quality
and quantity of water is not affected. Today, Minnesota officials said authorities have not yet
identified who is responsible. But sources say a number of officials suspect hackers tied to Iran
are involved, in part because of the ongoing conflict unfolding in the
in the Middle East.
Officials are also suspicious of hackers tied to Iran because the goal of the attacks
appears to be to disrupt services, not to blackmail ransom payments.
With a major concern, Pierre Thomas for us tonight.
So really kind of concerning.
Basically they targeted something like 30 municipal water and water systems, municipal water
and waste water systems across the state of Minnesota.
there have been actually reports of as many as 36.
This is a town called Brom, and they had a well-in-treatment plant that went offline, apparently, for a
couple of hours.
Before being restored, you had other communities, including Plymouth, South St. Paul, Maple Plain
that switched to manual controls or disconnected remote systems as a precaution.
And we're not hearing that any drinking water was actually made unsafe, but maybe this was
some kind of message that they were trying to send.
U.S. intelligence agencies, the FBI, state officials all coming to the conclusion that they believe
this was carried out by Iranian state-sponsored hackers. And that's kind of concerning, okay?
Kind of concerning. I do question, like, why Minnesota, did they have to have somebody on the
ground that was more sympathetic to them to work with? I mean, what if all the places, like,
why choose Minnesota? I think it's worth thinking about. President Trump has come out blasting
Minnesota's gross incompetence, really targeting Governor Tim Walts.
You know, this has been a repeated line of attack from him because of all the messed up things
that have happened in Minnesota. Minnesota officials have pushed back against that,
but the bottom line is here. Somehow there was a cyber attack. Somehow there was a cyber intrusion.
It was affecting 36, up to 36 water plants in the state of Minnesota,
and this is believed to have come from Iran. So I would just say, okay,
You know, you got some people there.
Some people who might be willing to do something.
Yeah, Ilhan Omar, you know, in your crowd.
I don't know.
I just think it's weird that it was Minnesota.
Ilhan does have a very, very big network there.
Let's face it, right?
Meanwhile, you've got another drone strike,
a drone strike striking the Suez Canal.
Look at this one.
Okay, wow.
So this is a drone strike actually, I should point out, it's near the Suez Canal.
It's not actually in the Suez Canal, but it's putting the Suez Canal increasingly now at risk.
Suez Canal is kind of the backup to things.
Well, this is right near the Nile, the Nile River over in Egypt.
And it's a particular port, a particular port that's now increasingly in.
jeopardy. Because you had two tankers that were struck there. It's the Darmieta port. It actually
opens up to the Mediterranean. So it's a big way for actually Mediterranean to distribute natural gas
actually into liquefied natural gas into Egypt. And so these fires broke out. I think one of them
was actually a Greek tanker in the one of them was U.S. But nonetheless, it's kind of sending a message.
Nobody's actually claimed this right now.
We're not seeing Iran come out and say, hey, it was us.
We're not seeing any.
The Houthis are not coming out and saying, hey, it was us.
So there's some questions as to why this happened and who did it.
But I think it's sending some fears, like through the community.
And certainly I would think it will start to show up possibly within the oil markets.
We'll watch that carefully for you.
Because if you don't have security there in the Suez Canal, if you don't have it,
in the Red Sea and you don't have it in the Strait of Hermuz, you're going to have some problems.
So this drone strike, here's the Reuters report. In Egypt, they write, spark security concerns
about Suez oil exports. And it's a drone strike that, again, damage to gas tankers, as I told you,
in the Egyptian waters, it's renewed energy concerns, security concerns, and the nearby Suez Canal,
and a related pipeline. Now, just to once again reiterate, we don't, forgive me, we don't actually know
who is responsible for this just yet, but we did have two particular vessels. The
Enargos Winter and the Gaslog Salem, these are the two vessels that were damaged and that were
put on fire there in the Damietta port right along the Mediterranean Sea, right near the Nile,
right near the Suez Canal. And so now people are like, well, wait, what does this mean? Right?
Egypt says, we have no idea who did it. The prime minister was out earlier today saying we still don't
know who did it. Originally, they thought it was just a fire. Then they figured out this was actually
a drone, like someone sent a drone right over there into those liquefied natural gas tankers, one of
them being a U.S. one. So where does this leave us? Chris Wright, the energy secretary, went on to
Bloomberg, one of my former employers today. And he had this to say, which I don't think is very
heartening because he's kind of arguing that the Suez Canal is your backup to all backups.
But we may not have the backup to all backups if we're to assume that there's a violent streak there that might be coming out in that area of Egypt near the Suez Canal.
Let's go to Chris Wright.
And I wonder your thoughts on what is now the involvement of Houthi rebels from Yemen creating a potential second choke point as we've discussed in the Red Sea.
This is something that Saudi Arabia had already tried to pipeline around with regard to the Strait of Hormuz.
Is there a bypass to the bypass, as Javier Blas put that, that you're talking to Saudi Arabia about where additional pipe could be installed to get around this second choke point?
There is a bypass to the bypass called the Suez Canal.
So you can go across to the Red Sea and instead of going south down to the Bandel Mandeb, you can go through the Suez Canal.
That is happening as we speak.
There's both oil tanker capacity through the Suez and there is a pipeline that follows the same route, both of which will be employed to divert more oil that way.
Okay. Thank you, Chris Wright. But again, the backup to the backup of the bypass, the bypass might not be there if they're light and liquid natural gas tankers on fire.
All right? And this is what happened again. The Damietta port.
Hopefully you can hear me over this noise.
The Damia port.
It is near the Nile, near the Suez Canal,
and this is now putting new questions into the atmosphere
about just exactly what are you going to do
if they wind up creating havoc in all of these places,
whether it be the Red Sea, as we know with the Houthis,
whether it be in the Strait of Hermuz, which is quite obvious,
or whether it be in the Suez Canal,
because when you have them sending drones your way, that is not a good thing.
And we don't know who did it.
But wow, they did it.
They did it.
So this is turning into what you might call a big old mess, a big old mess.
And it's one of the reasons why you've heard so many generals say,
we need to come in harder, stronger.
We can't be having these like piece of cords that go on for a week or a day
where they just violate it as soon as they can.
We've got to get smarter about all of this,
or we're going to be looking at very few opportunities
to really write the course of things here
because drones coming in to liquefied natural guests
just in a port, right?
Like just sitting in a port near the Mediterranean,
that could mean that you're taking the Suez Canal offline.
You take the Suez Canal offline to any extent
alongside the Strait of Hormuz alongside the Red Sea, you're increasingly going to have higher
oil prices, higher liquid natural gas prices, higher prices for energy in general. So, wow,
again, we're watching it very quickly. We're waiting to see if anybody is going to claim credit
here. You would think Iran would be like, it's us, you know, me, me, me, me, me. You would
think the Houthis would do that. But no one is actually claiming that they actually,
did this. So somebody did. Obviously, somebody did. It could be a rogue group. Don't forget,
we've talked about the mosaic sort of structure that they have to their military and to their
entire sort of terror network and system. So we'll find out, I guess, soon enough. But remember,
the Suez Canal is really, really important. You get two liquid natural gas tankers that were taken out there.
One is most definitely American. I believe the other one may be Greek. They're not actually inside the Suez
canal, they are just alongside it. They're in the port. No one is claiming responsibility as of yet.
I want to take a quick look at the markets because, you know, this week we had the Federal Reserve
out announcing that they were going to leave interest rates right where they were. And everybody
was like, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, the market was way down, right? Way down. So what did I do?
I bought. We published a note on my company, 76 research, about how you really get to take these
things in stride and you got to look for these opportunities and it's one of the things that i talked
with dr kirk uh from kepm just the other day about you can go to trish loves gold and silver dot com
to learn more but i want to point out the Dow up six tenths of percent s&p up six cents a percent
nasdaq up eight tenths of a percent and this is on the heels of all the good stuff that we
saw yesterday nonetheless you know what we had a couple days ago some bad stuff so you're going to
have a lot of volatility for now as dr kirk so well explained let's listen until we get to the point
we know who the real Kevin Warsh is, you're going to have volatility in the markets.
Until we get to the point where we know who the real Kevin Warsh is, you're going to have
volatility in the markets. This is why gold and silver are kind of bopping up and down right now
because nobody knows what he's going to say. Three days last week, silver was up 6% each day.
Okay, and then it was down the next day. Then it was up and then it was down. Why? Because of the
volatility. The stock market's doing the same thing.
The bond market is screaming inflation.
Yields right now are at the highest they've been since 2007,
which means the world thinks we're going to have inflation.
So what is Kevin Warsh going to do?
Is he going to lower interest rates like what he promised Trump?
Kind of doubt it.
Think he's going to have to keep rates high to slow down inflation,
even though America domestically is screaming for lower rates to stimulate the economy.
I don't think we're going to get it anytime real soon.
So take advantage of that volatility.
Buy on these debts because ultimately the inflation pressures are going to persist.
Okay.
