Starting point is 00:00:00 The following program is made possible by the faithful prayers and financial support of listeners just like you. To find out how you can help, visit nothing but the truth, so help us God. I'm Rick Wiles. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi may have already left Washington, D.C. for Asia. Earlier this week, news reports suggested that the Speaker would travel to Taiwan during the congressional recess that is scheduled to start in mid-August. However, the South China Morning Post reported this afternoon that Speaker Pelosi has already departed the American capital city to fly to Asia. Doc Burkhardt and I have been following the story, and we're here to keep you up to date on the countdown to the first showdown in World War III. And that's
Starting point is 00:01:16 what this could be, Doc, the first showdown in World War III. And what's unusual about this, unless we're just way ahead of the curve on this, Rick, really South China Morning Post, a handful of Asian outlets are the only ones reporting that Nancy Pelosi has left. Many U.S. outlets haven't picked this up. They're still saying that she's scheduled to depart sometime later in the day. But even that's an update because yesterday we had no inclination at all. We were still thinking it was going to be mid-august right so let's look at that article first this is from South
Starting point is 00:01:51 China Morning Post in the latest edition here so they're saying Nancy Pelosi heads to Asia day after Chinese leader Xi Jinping warns us not to play with fire over Taiwan now they're saying that U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi departed for Asia on Friday amid intense scrutiny over whether she would visit Taiwan following repeated warnings from Beijing. Her departure came just hours after Presidents Xi Jinping and Joe Biden spoke by phone when the Chinese leader told the U.S. not to play with fire over the issue. However, one diplomatic observer said even stronger warnings may have been given in private, while another suggested that although China would avoid a response that directly targeted the U.S., its military
Starting point is 00:02:36 would take action directed towards Taiwan. Even stronger warnings, Rick? Have you heard this yet? No, this is the first time. I've read this suggestion that the phone call may have been less than friendly. And, I mean, what's stronger than don't play with fire, you might get burned up. Right. And the word perish was used. Yes, they used perish. I don't know how you get much stronger than that. I agree.
Starting point is 00:03:05 Doc, this is, again, look, we don't know if Nancy Pelosi has actually left D.C. for Asia. All we know is the South China Morning Post in Hong Kong is reporting in recent hours that she has already left Washington DC as doc said we can't find any American news sources that are confirming that she has left But what changed in in American news in the past 24 hours is that yesterday? The reporting was she would go in mid-August. The trip was planned for mid-August. Then yesterday we have the phone call with Xi Jinping and Joe Biden, and Xi Jinping says you're playing with fire, you're going to perish.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Suddenly today, U.S. news media outlets like CNN reported Nancy Pelosi will depart on Friday. And the latest thing that has come out is South China Morning Post saying she has left. And nobody else, CNN, Fox, Washington Post, nobody else is reporting that her plane has actually taken off. So if she has, then, Doc, my question is, why was her trip put on fast track in the last 24 hours? Well, you have to kind of take into consideration the phone call yesterday. You know, at this point, really you're at a showdown between the U.S. and China. U.S. can't back down now, and China can't back down. But it looks like the U.S. has fast-forwarded the timetable just to test China. Maybe they think they catch China off guard at this point.
Starting point is 00:05:01 Or maybe they'll just say, you know what, we're just going to do what we want to do anyway. But something definitely changed after that phone call. Maybe Joe Biden got, you know, everybody together and said, what do we do? And they said, press on, press on. Hey, what's interesting about this particular situation, Rick, is Nancy Pelosi has the support of all the Warhawk Republicans. Of course. Go, Nancy, go. The Republicans are very enthusiastic about her going to China. There's another possibility, Doc, and that is that the mid-August date was never real.
Starting point is 00:05:47 That today was always the date because it was the day after the phone call. And the ruling elite in this country planned it that way anyhow. They had the phone call scheduled for Thursday. They had Nancy's departure scheduled for Friday. But you lived in Asia for many years, and you know the Asian mindset. So after that phone call yesterday, which obviously was a heated phone call, very direct, Xi Jinping telling Joe Biden, if you send Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan, you're playing with fire. You may perish. Be careful.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Think about this. Nancy Pelosi even admitting, they may shoot me down out of the air. Yeah, she's not even speculating. She's actually saying it. So, Doc, if she took off today, how would that be perceived by the Chinese? What is the Asian mindset? If they got the news today, they didn't pull back and say, let's reconsider. We're going to think about this trip.
Starting point is 00:06:58 We're going to wait a couple weeks. We're going to make a decision later. And they're informed. No, she ran to the airport today. She went to the military base today and boarded the plane and took off. How, what's the Asian mindset? How do they receive it? Well, they're gonna receive this
Starting point is 00:07:16 as kind of a slap in the face. It's gonna be a question of dishonor at this point because now, you know, they would expect a little bit of breathing room, some, in response to what they said. But no, what the U.S. has done is they've gone and they've upped the game, if you will. So that's an aggressive move. Right. And the Chinese, they're going to show even more aggression and greater aggression. They're not going to back down from this. I'm telling you, this is very, very serious. This is a share down, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:07:48 Yes. Somebody's going to back down. Right. Somebody's going to back down. Either Nancy Pelosi cancels at the last minute going to Taiwan, or the Chinese back down and don't prevent her from landing. So we're faced with a game of nuclear chicken here at this point. I mean, you've got two superpowers facing off over a plane trip.
Starting point is 00:08:12 And how quickly this escalated. I mean, just a week ago, this was on no one's radar, really. I mean, no one was even thinking that much about this. But someone ginned up this whole controversy. Chinese reacted, U.S. reacted, and this is where we're at right now. You had mentioned yesterday that you talked about the possibility of them forcing the plane to land on mainland China. Now I'm leaning more toward they, I mean, really, they could shoot the plane down. I think they're going to shoot her down. And we'll have reason to say that here in just a few moments
Starting point is 00:08:48 because there's other Chinese officials out there that are kind of making that accusation there. It's expected that Speaker Pelosi will go to South Korea, to Japan, and Singapore. Right. If she left D.C. today, I seriously doubt she's going to fly straight to Taipei. But then again, we didn't expect her to leave today either.
Starting point is 00:09:18 That's true. That's true. A direct flight would be what? Nine, ten hours? No, to Taiwan it would be closer to 22, 24 hours. It would just be nine hours just to get to Hawaii, wouldn't it? They'd probably stop in Hawaii. But it is possible that they'd go south and go that direction. But still, it's a long trip. Between Seoul, South Korea, Tokyo, Japan, and Singapore,
Starting point is 00:09:48 where do you think she would touch down first if her ultimate mission is Taipei? I would guess maybe go to Singapore first and then kind of work her way toward Taiwan. That's just my guess, my gut telling me that. And so that way it allows the media and the news to kind of get out there and, you know, give the Chinese time to reconsider. But I don't think they're going to reconsider.
Starting point is 00:10:16 They're going to up the game. They're moving tanks around in southern China now by rail and by road. And so things are starting to cook in that part of the world. This is so surreal, Doc. This is surreal. We're living through this. But you know what? All the events leading up to Ukraine, every day, January and February, we were expecting anything to happen any given day.
Starting point is 00:10:44 And finally, one one day it happened. Yes. Now it's happened again. Right. This time in China. So we're going to be fighting two wars at the same time. Right. Russia and China.
Starting point is 00:10:56 And Iran's going to come in on this thing pretty soon, and North Korea. So this is going to be, if all of them go to the battlefield at one time, this is going to be a mega war on a scale that nobody has ever seen and nobody imagined would happen in 2022. We have been telling people by the spirit of the Lord, we have been warning and warning and warning and declaring the world has now entered a time of world war. And the church is absolutely asleep. Yes.
Starting point is 00:11:37 It is asleep. That's the sad part. Nobody is aware of what's happening. Now, on the other hand, if you ask Evil Doc what might be going on, is everybody needs a war right now. The U.S. needs a war. Europe needs a war. Russia needs a war. And China needs a war right now to reset everything if we're moving that direction.
Starting point is 00:12:00 And we've met people in the Middle East that have said pretty much to that effect that they need this war for the next phase, the next world government that's coming along. There needs to be some type of mega pressure that forces all the parties to sit down and redraw the map of the world. And nothing like a war that will force them to do it this next articles from free beacon China warns Pelosi trip marks invasion and military the Chinese military has the right to fire on her plane this is what we were saying yesterday which just seems so extreme 24 hours ago, Doc. Right. When we said it yesterday, it was like,
Starting point is 00:12:48 would they go that far to blow her out of the sky? No. The Free Beacon is reporting it. Of course, I think a lot of people secretly watch True News to find out what's going on in the world. But I want to show you a tweet. Yes. And this is from Yu Zhijun.
Starting point is 00:13:11 And Yu is an analyst for the Chinese state-controlled Global Times news outlet there. And he's responding to CNN breaking news. At that time, seven hours ago, she plans to depart for a tour of Asia today. But this is what the state outlet was saying. If U.S. fighter jets escort Pelosi's plane into Taiwan, it is invasion. The PLA has the right to forcibly dispel Pelosi's plane and the U.S. fighter jets, including fire warning shots and making tactical movement of obstruction. If ineffective, then shoot them down. This is what Global Times readers are seeing today, Rick. Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:49 It's surreal, isn't it, Doc? So that's as much as if the CCP itself said it. Right? So this is where they're at right now. They're talking about shooting down Nancy Pelosi's plane. We're not speculating on that. We just read it. That's where they're at right now.
Starting point is 00:14:10 And once again, we've painted ourselves into this corner, and now we have no way out. Nancy Pelosi, everybody, in fact, all the talking head shows now said, does Nancy Pelosi need to go to Taiwan? She must go to Taiwan. Pelosi need to go to Taiwan? She must go to Taiwan. She has to go to Taiwan. It's like the deep state is sacrificing her. It's like they're putting her on
Starting point is 00:14:31 an altar. Because she knows she's most likely not going to return. I mean, somebody has obviously convinced Nancy Pelosi to give up her life for the sake of World War III. I mean, if you were in your shoes, would you go?
Starting point is 00:14:51 Well, I don't wear heels, but no, I wouldn't go at all. No, why? Why doesn't anyone seek a peaceful solution to this? That's what I mean. No one's saying, well, I see peace breaking out all over. You never see that headline, do you? There has to be a way, a peaceful resolution to this
Starting point is 00:15:13 without somebody blowing something up. But are the ruling, is the ruling class of America, whatever you want to call them, New World Order, whatever it is, you know, are they sacrificing her? Are they saying to Nancy Pelosi, we need you to do this act. The war has to start and you're going to have to give up your life. You're going to have to fly to Taiwan. You will be shot down and the war will
Starting point is 00:15:46 start. It just seems like they had this conversation at some point. It's almost as if there was a script that was out there and they say, okay, we're in act three now. Nancy Pelosi, you need to go to Taiwan. And then that's when things start blowing up. I mean, they certainly have had this conversation in private. I mean, you have to imagine that Nancy Pelosi has said to her advisors, do you think they'll shoot me down? Of course, she said, yeah, they probably are.
Starting point is 00:16:20 I mean, all she has to do is read Twitter today. Yes. I mean, if you're just sitting in a plane reading tweets, you would know they plan to shoot you down when you get to Taiwan. Next one. This is also Global Times. This is a Chinese Communist Party newspaper. A social media post from the People's Liberation Army preparing for war.
Starting point is 00:16:52 So there's a war lust right now among the Chinese army. The PLA has not been in a war. Right. They've been training and they've. Right. They've been training, and they've been preparing. They've been talking about war for so long, and there comes a point in time where the Army has to do something. There's a lot of testosterone buildup and a lot of aggression, and the Chinese generals know, we have to have a war to let these guys
Starting point is 00:17:22 release energy on the battlefield. Right. And they have a war to let these guys release energy on the battlefield right and they have a surplus of men too and so and they could use some more heroes they could easily lose a hundred thousand men and wouldn't hurt them at all right and that's something for us to keep in mind that we are outnumbered by the Chinese too too. And right now, this week, the Pentagon is making a decision on whether to force 30, I think 30, 40,000 men out of the National Guard because they refuse the COVID vaccine. Not men who are sick, not men who are infected, not men who have had any health problems, but men who refuse. Who are in their sane, sound mind. Right.
Starting point is 00:18:09 Yeah. The Straits Time in Singapore. China announces Taiwan Strait drills ahead of possible Pelosi trip. So China on Saturday, it's already Saturday there, will hold live fire military drills in the Taiwan Strait. The government announced via state media raising the stakes ahead of a possible trip to the self-governing island by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The maneuvers will be limited in scope and will take place off the island of Pingtang in Fujian Province, according to a statement issued on Thursday, but reported by Chinese state media only on Friday live ammunition will be fired between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. and any entry into these waters will be prohibited said the
Starting point is 00:18:54 government statement which does not mention miss Pelosi and so but obviously the Chinese are moves moving assets place, and we reported yesterday the Reagan and the It Strike group, they're moving into position. So we're bound to have something happen at some point here. Somebody's going to shoot something off, and a full-scale war will start up. The report from Hong Kong gives more information about the U.S. warships and the Chinese warships that are positioning off the coast of Taiwan. South China Morning Post, Pelosi, Taiwan visit region is tense as Chinese Navy watches U.S. warships hold drills in the South China Sea. Right, as tensions mount over U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's potential trip to Taiwan,
Starting point is 00:19:48 the Chinese Navy has been monitoring the USS Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier's activities in the South China Sea. The nuclear-powered warship was cruising about 115 miles from the contested fire across reef in the Spratly's Chain on Thursday, according to publicly available satellite images. Two other vessels, identified by Vietnam-based maritime observer Duong Dang, as a Chinese Type 052D destroyer and a Type 054A frigate, were seen 27 and 23 clicks away from that. The Reagan and its carrier strike group left Singapore on Monday headed for the South China Sea as Pelosi's trip, which she has not confirmed, causes a ruckus with Beijing forcing warning that the United States will face forceful measures if it goes ahead. So this is kind of a clue here, Rick. So they sent out the Reagan strike group on Monday.
Starting point is 00:20:43 So does that kind of tell us that this was planned for today? So the U.S. Aircraft Carrier Strike Group, which includes the USNS Tippecanoe Replenishment Oiler and the USS Antietam Cruiser has been traveling northeast. And if the vessels continue
Starting point is 00:20:59 in that direction, they will reach the Taiwan Strait probably about sometime this weekend then. Nancy's not going to get there before the ships. Right. So that's kind of a clue there, isn't it? That's a good point, Doc. So a decision was made at the Pentagon at the beginning of this week to move the ships.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Right. So somebody in the Pentagon had knowledge that Pelosi was going to leave this Friday. Not an accident. No. It's a well-planned, choreographed strategy, right on schedule, to bring about a war. Well, speaking of war. We're about to see it.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Yeah. And war often makes strange bedfellows. And Pelosi's been gaining the support of Republicans, Republican war hawks. This is from Fox News. Republicans ready a bill to lease Taiwan weapons and stand off with China. We're going to reactivate the Lend-Lease, Rick. Can you believe that? There's nothing that will activate Republican politicians into action than a war.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Right. Man, they come alive. And it's interesting who is behind this particular Lend-Lease option. Congressional Republicans are preparing to introduce legislation creating a lend-lease military aid program for taiwan to ward off increased belligerence from communist china the bill which is the brainchild of house gop rep michelle steel from california and senator marshall blackburn is modeled after an early 1940s program that allowed the u.s government to bolster european allies without having to directly enter World War II itself. The bill would authorize the president to lend or lease
Starting point is 00:22:51 weapons and military equipment to the Taiwan government. In exchange, the country's government is required to repay the cost of restoring or replacing the borrowed weapons over a 12-year time frame. The bill does stipulate that the White House can opt to renegotiate the repayment sum if it deems the money would take away from the national security of both Taiwan and the U.S. So this was one of the precursors really for us, for the United States, for entry into World War II in Europe. That's right. Because we had supplied weapons, arms, other support to European nations in their war against Germany. And that was the first foothold for us. That's right. And also
Starting point is 00:23:40 this week, President Biden invoked Lend-Lease for Ukraine. Yes. So the U.S., we're going to be lending out all kinds of weapons of war. We're a war country. We like war. And we're good at it, too. Yeah. America likes war.
Starting point is 00:24:00 We like people dying. We like people blowing things up. This country runs on war. You have to accept that. This is a this nation, and they have to have war. And they have the American people cheering for it. They just cheer for it. All we got to do is bring out the flag, say a couple buzzwords, and man, the people get excited about war. Tell me why Americans are excited about helping the Ukrainian army. Why do we have Americans volunteering to go to Ukraine and fight?
Starting point is 00:25:05 Why do we see people with Ukrainian flags in their yard? Why? What is that? Because we like war. We like war. And I guarantee you tonight on Fox News, they'll be trotting out their conservatives and Sean Hannity and all of them, they'll just be... They'll have all these former CIA agents and generals.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Yeah, former. Yeah, former. Yeah. They'll have the CIA and military advisors there on Fox News tonight. But they have them on CNN and MSNBC also. Right. The left likes war too. Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:43 Yeah, if you go through the channels today, which I did, they're all on the same message. You know something's up then. Yes. When they're all on the same message and they're gearing toward this conflict. No one's coming out and saying,
Starting point is 00:25:58 you know, Nancy shouldn't really go. No, everybody says, MSNBC, CNN, Fox, they're all in agreement. So things are continuing to ramp up here. Doc, if people are thinking, ah, the Chinese, they're going to back down, nothing's going to happen, I don't think so this time.
Starting point is 00:26:19 I just don't think they're going to back down. I think Xi Jinping has been preparing the Chinese army for years for this showdown. Several years ago we showed video of him talking to millions of soldiers. Remember that one day he had millions of soldiers
Starting point is 00:26:38 they appeared on separate bases but they all stood and listened to speakers talking about loudspeakers video screens as xi jinping addressed the entire chinese army and what did he tell them prepare for war they have been preparing for this day it's here here. It has finally arrived. And can you imagine? Who would have guessed
Starting point is 00:27:09 Nancy Pelosi would be the one who triggers it? Of all people. I guess the only positive thing out of this thing is we'll have a new House Speaker. What else? I mean, if you have a congressional, if you even have a new house speaker what else i mean if you have a congressional if you even
Starting point is 00:27:26 have a capital building if you even have a capital city and this thing could be over quickly very well could be and so uh or it could also be that they have just decided that now is the time to confront china if I mentioned it yesterday, if we continue to let China grow and develop, they're going to outpace us. Okay, well, what does that look like, Doc? It looks like a bloody war is what it looks like. Yes. With lots of dead people.
Starting point is 00:27:56 But considering our Western mindset, it's better to fight them over there than here. Remember, we used to hear that back during the Iraq War. But they think the same thing. Yes. And they're going to fight them over there than here. Remember, we used to hear that back in the rock war. But they think the same thing. Yes. And they're going to fight us here. And if the American people think this is going to be one of those wars
Starting point is 00:28:14 where you just watch it on TV, no, you're going to be just watching it out your window. Just open up your blinds. You'll see the war. Let's change. Oh, before I go to the next one, China accused the White House of lying about Joe Biden bringing up genocide
Starting point is 00:28:40 and forced labor in his conversation with Xi Jinping. This is a Fox News article. So Mr. Biden said that, well, I don't know if he personally said it or someone in the White House said that he confronted Xi Jinping yesterday about genocide of the Uyghurs, the Chinese Muslims, and the forced labor of the Muslims.
Starting point is 00:29:08 And China came out today and said, that's a lie. He never said it. Right. And Corinne Jean-Pierre yesterday told the press conference yesterday that Mr. Biden had brought up those particular topics. So Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs denied the White House claim that President Biden addressed genocide and forced labor on a call with Chinese President Xi Jinping. White House Press Secretary Corinne Jean-Pierre told the press Thursday that the president raised ethical concerns over forced labor and ethnic genocide in China.
Starting point is 00:29:43 The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs denied the alleged conversation entirely, saying, according to White House Press Secretary, genocide and forced labor came up in last night's call between China and U.S. presidents. This is disinformation. A similar message was pushed separately in which the Ministry of Foreign Affairs called the alleged conversation pure lies and false information. Pure lies, MFA spokesperson Li Zhenjiao said of the White House's claim. White House spokesperson said the issues of genocide and forced labor were mentioned in the call last night. That is false information.
Starting point is 00:30:23 All right. Now, Doc, so we have a situation here. The White House saying Biden did bring up genocide, forced labor camps. The Chinese saying that's a lie. It never came up in the conversation. Do we have anything similar that's happened with Joe Biden? Well, Joe Biden has been known maybe to bend the truth a little bit and coming back out and saying things. We have another story here.
Starting point is 00:30:57 This is from Reuters. This is back on July 15th. So Reuters reported that Biden confronts Saudi Crown Prince over Khashoggi murder and expects action on energy. Well, then a couple of days later, July 17th, this is from the New York Post, Saudi minister lied, this is President Biden saying this, Saudi minister lied about not hearing him confront MBS on Khashoggi's killing. In other words, the Saudi minister came out and said there was no conversation about Khashoggi or anything at all.
Starting point is 00:31:29 He said, I was there in a room, and Biden never brought up Khashoggi. Right. Well, maybe he thought he did. Maybe he remembered he did. And so, much like the call yesterday, if that's the case, that's even scarier than an outright lie, isn't it? Or just Joe Biden lies. Right. That's the other possibility. But you have two leaders of two countries in one week accusing Joe Biden of lying about a meeting or a phone call. The pattern is Joe Biden is the liar.
Starting point is 00:32:08 These are two different countries, Saudi Arabia and China. And for Joe Biden to come out and say that a senior level official of the Saudi administration is a liar. Now, do you think that went over well in Saudi Arabia? It was Saudi Arabia's secretary of state. Yeah. Foreign minister. And he accused Secretary of State. Yeah. Foreign Minister. And he accused him of lying. Right. Not, oh,
Starting point is 00:32:32 we got his information wrong, or we have different viewpoints. No, he lied. He lied. You have to ask the question, is President Joe Biden a liar? Is he? Not only is he a liar, he's a pervert. He takes showers with his daughter. He's a pervert.
Starting point is 00:32:52 He's a crook. He does business deals with the Chinese. So I'm beginning to wonder, what did he talk about for two hours with Xi Jinping? If he didn't talk about forced labor camps and quarantines, and the conversation is probably pretty short over Taiwan and Nancy Pelosi. Do you think Xi Jinping threatened to release documents about Hunter Biden? Is that why we stepped up the war?
Starting point is 00:33:20 Well, now you're really talking. Because something caused it to get stepped up i mean the timetable moved quickly did xi jinping say i we have all the documents big man big guy big guy yeah you're the big guy uh we could release it right now um did when that phone call was over did did Biden say, we've got to go to war now? We've got to stop this. Don't rule that out. I hadn't even considered that possibility until now.
Starting point is 00:33:58 This next story is from RT, European Union heading for war economy, said Viktor Orban, the president of Hungary. Now, we've been talking here for a couple months about the war economy because we've seen this appear in various European news articles
Starting point is 00:34:21 where, like, Emmanuel Macron in France has referred to the French war economy. So now Mr. Orban said, we're in a war economy right now. Right, and he's preparing for such. Right now he's been under scrutiny and attack for his recent comments about Hungary for Hungarians and about race issues in Hungary.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Well, several years ago, he chased George Soros out of Hungary. Right. So he's the – he's a target, definitely. You better believe it. He knows what the globalists are up to. So Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has lambasted an EU plan to reduce gas consumption by 15%. And unless the bloc pushes for peace in Ukraine, he warned that Europe will face an energy crisis,
Starting point is 00:35:14 a recession, and political turmoil. Speaking following a meeting with Austrian Chancellor Karl Niehammer in Vienna on Thursday, Orban said that Hungary determines its own energy policy, and any attempt by Brussels to interfere with this will not find favor with the Hungarians. Now, earlier this week, in anticipation of a cutoff in supply from Russia, the EU member states agreed on a range of measures to cut their gas consumptions by 15% over the winter.
Starting point is 00:35:45 The voluntary measures, including a switch to alternative fuels and rationing for household consumers, could become mandatory should the EU declare a state of emergency. Hungary was the only one of the EU's 27 members to oppose the plan. Declaring it simply impossible to go without Russian energy, Foreign Minister Peter Gisarto traveled to Moscow last Thursday to negotiate the purchase of an extra 700 million cubic meters of Russian gas. The fact that Brussels is already implementing energy rationing suggests that Europe is moving toward a wartime economy, Orban said, adding that unless peace is reached in Ukraine,
Starting point is 00:36:27 we will not be able to solve any problems, there will be no energy, and the entire European Union will be pushed into an economic situation of war. And so I remember our last trip to Davos. That was beginning of 2020. I sat in a meeting. Not that big of a room, actually, and Victor Orban was there.
Starting point is 00:36:56 15, 20 people in some of those rooms. Right, and Victor Orban spoke, and he was well-spoken, spoke in English. But you could tell he was an outsider there, the way he spoke about the events that were going on. And so he's a wild card. He's a renegade out there for the EU. The fact, now you've got countries now that are negotiating directly with Russia for their energy needs in basically defiance or sticking their nose up at the EU, saying we're going to do our own thing. What does this foretell about the future of the EU? Can they maintain an alliance if they can't agree on, in other words, they don't really see Russia as a common enemy for some?
Starting point is 00:37:42 Hungary doesn't. No. Can the EU hold the union together? Not without a police enforcement mechanism. Right. They need a military. They need a European military. If they're going to have the power to hold countries like Hungary, keep them in check. Because they don't have any way. I mean, if Orban tells Brussels,
Starting point is 00:38:08 we're not sending you our gas. Right, because that's what the EU has said. Yes. What are they going to do? What are they going to do? I mean, I guess they can put economic sanctions on Hungary. Yes. On a member state of the EU.
Starting point is 00:38:26 Yes, that's what I'm saying, how ridiculous it will become. But they don't have any other enforcement mechanism. They don't have an army. They have no way to go in and take it from him. All they could do is ostracize Hungary, not let them participate in EU activities, put economic sanctions on them. But that just drives them toward Russia. Yes. Yes. Yeah, the European Union is a failed experiment. It's not going to work. And you know what? It could have been a success if they had brought Russia into an alliance years ago?
Starting point is 00:39:05 Well, I think with NATO, I don't know if Russia, you know, I don't know if Russia would ever have agreed to joining the European Union, because they wouldn't let these clowns in Brussels dictate this. Sure. They would be telling Russia, you're sending all your gas to us. I mean, Russia's not gonna,
Starting point is 00:39:25 Russia is as big as the rest of the European continent. Right. Why would they be pushed around by tiny little country like Brussels or Austria? I mean, they're just not going to submit to it. I don't think the European Union is going to work. I think it's already a failed state, and it's not going to submit to it. I don't think the European Union is going to work. I think it's already a failed state and it's not going to work. Most people don't know the European Union
Starting point is 00:39:53 was a CIA project after World War II. It was the CIA that pushed Europeans to form the EU. It wasn't a European idea. It was an American CIA plan. And it was to keep Germany in check. It's failed, you know. It's failed like, you know, other states that fail. But anyhow, it's not going to collapse this week. No. But? But we don not going to collapse this week. No.
Starting point is 00:40:27 But? But we don't know after World War III, we don't know what the landscape looks like. All I know, folks, is this is moving much faster than I like. I had plans for the weekend. Now, Nancy's in Taiwan.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Yeah, Nancy's headed to Taiwan. Seriously, I am trying to deal with it myself. You know, I'm trying to process it. How do you make plans? How do you live in a world that's going crazy at a rapid rate of speed? I mean, this whole year. Think about it, Doc. We have gone into war.
Starting point is 00:41:13 A spirit of war has been over the United States and Europe since January. Yes. It's like we moved from COVID season to war season. Yes. And this is what we said back at the beginning of the year. The handlers, the globalists, whatever you want to call these guys, it's like they turned a channel. They said, we're done with COVID.
Starting point is 00:41:36 We're done with lockdowns. We're switching the channel to war. And so many people who were fighting them on COVID and the vaccines and the propaganda just laid down and rolled over and said, okay, we like the war propaganda. Yes. We enjoy it.
Starting point is 00:41:57 Nothing brings people together like a war. Yeah. And the same people who were fighting against COVID vaccines and the COVID propaganda have swallowed all of the war propaganda. Without questioning any of it. And if you try to tell them you've been duped by the same people who were duping the world on COVID, they get angry at you. You're a Putin lover.
Starting point is 00:42:27 You know, you're against them. I mean, it's like they got, their brains are gone. They're toast. They can't think on their own. They don't have a way to think independently. And so we're marching to war. And now, we're not marching now. We're running.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Doc, I thought this would hold out to December at this speed a week ago we didn't see this happening no and that's how fast things can change, isn't it? Yes. Some event, some innocuous, usually it's some innocuous event. Yes. Some random person dies, a ship sinks, something happens, and then everything breaks loose. It's as if that was the cork that was keeping everything in the bottle. But once that cork is popped, everything comes out. And in this case, I mean, there could be escalations globally. keeping everything in the bottle. But once that cork is popped, everything comes out. And in this case, I mean, there could be escalations globally.
Starting point is 00:43:33 We're talking even in our hemisphere here, very quickly. Because this is not going to be limited to Europe, as much as they try to contain it, or limited to Taiwan. For Taiwan, how we, you know, it's, you know, we're supplying weapons and everything to Ukraine via all the other countries surrounding Ukraine. We're committed to supplying weapons to Taiwan. How are we going to get weapons to Taiwan if we're engaged in active naval battles around Taiwan? We're not going to be able to do that. China is going to be able to take that without any problem. What happens when the American people see a
Starting point is 00:44:07 U.S. Navy fleet sunk to the bottom of the sea? What's going to be the reaction here? It would, you know, people would have it would cause great fear, of course. But in people's minds here, there's no way that's going to happen, Rick. I know that. We're America. We've got the biggest ships and the best of ships and everything.
Starting point is 00:44:32 There's no way that can happen. Well, remember, we never start fighting the war we think we're going to fight. We fight the last war we fought. And it takes a while for us to learn. In today's world, we don't have time to fight. We fight the last war we fought. And it takes a while for us to learn. In today's world, we don't have time to learn. China is fighting their future war. We're fighting past wars. I mean, that's kind of our mindset, that we think our old rules of engagement, our old ships, everything that we've got, we beat them before, we'll beat them again. No, we're living in a world of new technology and new weapons. And Russia and China know that they have to use theirs.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Doc, I have a feeling the Kerch Strait Bridge is going to come down the same time Nancy goes to Taiwan. I don't doubt it. Because they've already knocked down three major bridges between Ukraine and Russia, and those were the trial runs. The big ones coming. And when that happens, I would move out of Brussels. All I can say is come quickly, Lord Jesus. Yes. I want to speak to those of you
Starting point is 00:45:46 who are watching me and you are not saved you've never confessed your sins to God, you've never believed in the name of Jesus you haven't been baptized in water I'm speaking to you I'm going to make one more
Starting point is 00:46:02 appeal to you please please you. I'm going to make one more appeal to you. Please, please make things right with God. Make things right tonight. Do it tonight. Make things right with your maker. You don't have to look if you think I've done too many sins I can't do no that's not the way you can't get rid of your sins
Starting point is 00:46:33 the Lord will remove them as far as the east is from the west in his mind he will vanish your sins he will forgive you. What you need to do is ask him for forgiveness and believe that his son Jesus Christ
Starting point is 00:46:54 is the Savior of the world. Have faith in the name of Jesus to save your soul. And then this weekend, you find a church in your town. You tell that pastor, I have to be baptized. And the pastor says, we're not doing baptisms
Starting point is 00:47:13 for another six months. No, I have to be baptized. You find somebody to baptize you this weekend. Get this done. This is moving extremely fast right now. It's catching me by surprise. I mean, two weeks ago we heard that Nancy Pelosi was going to go to Taiwan, as she was thinking about it. And then last week the Pentagon said, we don't think it's
Starting point is 00:47:39 a good idea. And then this week, it just took off it's moving really fast if these reports are true she's in the air right now on her way to Taiwan and this is extremely disturbing and what I'm concerned about are those of you
Starting point is 00:48:02 who are not saved your name is not in the book of life And what I'm concerned about are those of you who are not saved. Your name is not in the book of life. And if you perished this week in a nuclear war, you're going to spend eternity in the lake of fire. That's what bothers me. That's what bothers me. And it's the only reason I'm out here every single day it's the only reason Doc comes here every day
Starting point is 00:48:28 we care about you, we want you to be saved look, I've known for years that this war is coming God showed me this war in 1998 and I've lived with the sounds of it I've lived with the sounds of it. I've lived with the visions of it since 1998. It's the only thing that has driven me for these 24 years to be here
Starting point is 00:48:54 day after day after day after day. Personally, I would have liked to have gotten out of America a long time ago because this war is coming. I know this is going to be bad. But I have stayed on the USS Titanic. I've stayed on the Titanic because there are more people that need to get into the lifeboat.
Starting point is 00:49:24 And the bravest people who were on the Titanic were the people who had an opportunity to escape, but chose not to escape, but stayed on the boat to help others get in a boat. Those were the bravest souls. And that's what I have done. I have just stayed here in America and said, there are too many lost souls. Somebody has to tell them about Jesus because there's not much of it happening in the churches. That's a sad commentary, but all I can do is talk to the people who are listening to me. I don't have access to the entire country,
Starting point is 00:50:09 but I have access to you. And if you're not saved, you're hearing it one more time from me that you need to give up your sin. You need to give up your sinful ways. You need to turn from your wicked ways and You need to turn from your wicked ways. And you need to believe on the name of Jesus Christ and be baptized.
Starting point is 00:50:31 And I've said it one more time, and heaven's records will show on Judgment Day that you heard it again. And I can't do anything else other than tell you, please get it done. Please. God willing, Doc and I will be back here on Monday. prayers and financial support of listeners just like you.
