I'm old enough to remember when Donald Trump beat the drum. America first. We're going to make America great again. We're going to do this for America. And there has been nothing done by his administration except to hurt Americans, take away their health care, terrorize them in the street. Now he's, his administration's executing people in the streets. And we've gone into Venezuela, we've been committing war crimes by killing their fishing boats. Now we've gone in and we've kidnapped the murderous dictator that ruled there, not because we give a about America, but because we want the oil. And Donald Trump even said we talked to the oil companies. They didn't talk to Congress. So Marco Rubio, when asked about what's it going to cost America, what's it going to cost taxpayers to do this regime change in Venezuela? And here I thought was the answer from he and Pete Hegseth that we all had to see.

Guest 1
It doesn't cost us. It doesn't cost us the involvement, the.
- [01:11]
Guest 2
U. S. Involvement in Venezuela.
- [01:13]
Guest 3
How much will it cost?
- [01:14]
Guest 1
Well, it's going to cost us any money. For example, this oil deal that's happening doesn't cost us any money. On the contrary, does it cost us any money? Well, these. Look, I can't. I don't have the numbers that you.
- [01:24]
Host
Okay, so it doesn't cost us any money. We're getting the oil. So he says the quiet part out loud.
- [01:30]
Guest 2
Fucking little Marco.
- [01:31]
Host
And then here's Pete Hegset who just goes unhinged. I mean, he's just unhinged.
- [01:36]
Guest 3
Besides that question from cnn, the questions never asked how much does it cost when they're in the Mediterranean or the Red Sea or the Indian Ocean or the Pacific. But now that they're in our hemisphere on a counter cartel mission or ensuring that indicted individual comes to justice, now you're asking the question of cost. It's a disingenuous question to begin with. You're trying find any angle possible to undermine the success of one of the most historic military missions the world has ever seen.
- [02:06]
Host
Okay, Every time he says the world has ever seen, just like shut the up. Here's the thing. This western hemisphere, I think you pointed out That's a Project 2025 term, correct?
- [02:25]
Guest 2
Yes, it is. In the Project 2024, 2025, they talk about hemisphere building. Also there is reporting, very interesting reporting that in 2019, National Security Advisor Fiona Hill reported under oath that Putin had offered Trump, during Trump 1.0, he offered the United States, Venezuela for Ukraine. So there to me of course, you have a lot of factions that this will satisfy. The oil oligarchs are like, oh yes, we're going to get it. But what's interesting, I read some report and I don't know if this has been verified or not, but that the funds that they're going to get from the oil that they've just taken are going to go to offshore accounts and not into the United States Treasury. And I don't know if that's been verified yet. But it was a journalist that, that tweeted that and she was asking for more detail about that. But this is a government right now set up by oligarchs for oligarchs of oligarchs. This is not an America first government. This is now he's talking about raising the defense spending by over a half trillion. This administration, this fascist regime is accelerating. They are accelerating the fascism at a very alarming rate. The Epstein files are still sitting there, but they are wagging the dog and, and breaking as much as they possibly can. And 250 years of democracy is going down the toilet. And have we been perfect?
- [04:01]
Host
No.

Guest 2
Are there scars all over our foreign policy? Yes. But something that we all used to believe in was the idea of improvement. Martin Luther King spoke so eloquently about the arc of justice, you know, bending towards the moral universe. And we incrementally, you know, marched together to do that. What we're up against right now with those two, those two war criminals, those two traitors. And democratic leadership needs to use those words when talking about Pete Hegseth and talking about Marco Rubio because they are war criminals and they are traitors to the United States of America. And their actions warrant at least your words and that, that voice. And don't fall into the crap and don't buy into the narrative of Stephen Miller that we can't exercise our First Amendment and call a spade a spade. But this administration and those two fucking war criminal dipshits, they are accelerating and they are breaking America on purpose. This is on purpose. They are breaking it. Everything that functioned as a democracy in 2020, the election, it's done. It's over. They are breaking it to consolidate power.

Well, to your point about where the money's going, Caroline KKK Levitt said yesterday in a press conference that the money would be put in offshore bank accounts to benefit the American people and the Venezuelan people at the direction of the US government. So that story is right. It's not coming to America. And the thing about this is nobody wants to Even have a shed of criticism about what this action is. When they, when Trump says, yeah, we're going to go in, we're going to do all this, it costs fucking money. But what they aren't doing is telling Congress. And so we have a congressman yesterday that came out and said, why? Or Trump, what the hell are they hiding from? Trump and Rubio under fire over secret briefings. They only want to do classified briefings. And if you'll pull up the body of the article, there was a point. Senator Ben Ray Lugian from New Mexico said, why the hell is the Trump administration scared to face the American people in an open setting before the Senate, before the House? I don't understand. They keep wanting to hide in a box somewhere and here, show the American people what the hell you are hiding from. And then I read from Senator Chris Murphy after a classified briefing, he can't, he says, I can't tell you the details, but it is so disturbing. And I encourage everybody to look at that because it's crazy what they are planning. It does cost money. It costs the American people. Trump's going, oh, we're going to rebuild the infrastructure. You're taking credit for Biden's infrastructure improvements because you couldn't get it passed in your term. So it's just, it's unbelievable. And here we have Donald Trump said, America's not as safe because, Nate, you know, we pay too much. NATO doesn't pay enough for defense. I'm mad at NATO. Well, now he's going full bore against our allies and NATO in this ridiculous, stupid lie social Post where he's still crying about the Nobel Peace Prize when he's fucking killing Americans in the street. I single handedly ended eight wars and Norway, a NATO member, foolishly chose not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize. And basically what they says it is again, NATO's not giving enough money. And so that tells you where his head is. He doesn't give a shit about our allies, the allies that we used to have. He's completely disrespecting, going against them. Look at Greenland just on that example alone. He is not interested in Putin stopping the war in Ukraine. He is interested in taking a victory lap. He is now interested in going into our hemisphere. And so when Marco Rubio, who is little dick energy Secretary of State, that has all these balls in the air, but they completely, completely have absolutely no diplomacy whatsoever in his position. Here's when asked about NATO and the President's comments about NATO, this is what he says about our allies, military option.

Guest 3
Is on the table.
- [08:49]
Guest 1
So is the administration really willing to.
- [08:52]
Guest 3
Risk the NATO alliance by potentially moving ahead?
- [08:55]
Guest 1
Guys, military. What I think the White House said yesterday is what I will tell you now. And I've always said the president always retained the option. If he. Every president, not this president, every president always retains the option. I'm not talking about Greenland. I'm just talking about globally. If the president identifies a threat to the national security of the United States, every president retains the option to address it through military means. As a diplomat, which is what I am now, and what we work on, we always prefer to settle it in different ways. That included in Venezuela, we tried repeatedly to reach an outcome here that did not involve having to go in and grab an indicted drug trafficker. Those were unsuccessful, unfortunately.

Before you comment, I just want to point out there's so many interested in using the term indicted against Maduro. Trump was indicted four times and nobody gave a. In that party. Okay, sorry.

It slows gray hair and supports thicker, fuller, healthier hair. Even if you don't have grays yet, you will eventually. Prevention works best when you start early.

Please support our show and let them know that we sent you. As to what you were saying before the second Marco Rubio video when you were talking about Trump and his statements about NATO and his statements about Iceland. I'm sorry, Greenland. It's more insidious than what you were describing. His talking points now mirror those of the Kremlin. There's no daylight between the two. In Moscow, on their state media, they are saying the United States of America foreign policy is now aligned with that of our president. And Marco Rubio was. We could pull up clip after clip after clip of him being a United States senator talking about the dangerous of Vladimir Putin, talking about Vladimir Putin being a murderous dictator, talking about Vladimir Putin being an. An enemy of democracy. Talking about Vladimir Putin being a threat to the free world. And these are Marco Rubio's words. And now he works and participates for an administration whose talking points regarding foreign policy mirror that of Moscow's and mirror that of the Kremlin. And that is the big story. And another point I just want to make that is somewhat connected to all of this. During the Biden administration if the economy or the jobs were just a little bit this way or a little bit that way the media hyper focused on it and inflation's up.0002% and we're down. You know, we didn't get as many jobs. The economy right now is so underreported. This whole idea that Marco Rubio is now parroting Russian talking points is barely reported in the media. It's reported in Russia but it's not reported in. The United States is a 911 houses on fire and all roads lead to the United States of America is a fake democracy that's set up for corporations. And this administration works for corporations. And our opposition, Mark Hakeem chuckles. Cory Booker and others, they work for corporations. And so this is just. This is all theater. All of this is just fucking theater. And I'm so exhausted from it. And I want our international listeners to know that some of us in this country see it. We see the American arrogance. We know how obnoxious and loud a lot of our citizens are. We get it. And we. There's a great awakening happening in the United States right now, particularly in the democratic base. And our leadership has no clue how we are so sick of them because they're still probably going to hire Deloitte and they're still probably going to do all of these focus groups. And at the end of the day this is a very simple thing to say. Marco Rubio sold out and now he's going to do hemisphere building because his parents were allowed to be immigrants from Cuba. Now he wants to be some Cuban hero. And you know, also all of his. His foreign policy aligns perfectly with former KGB agent who kills his adversaries, who's a murderous dictator who. Marco Rubio welcomed him in Alaska and shook his hand.

Right.

Guest 2
Marco Rubio is a war criminal and a traitor to the United States of America, period.

I completely agree. Because of all the people in this administration that have the knowledge of how dangerous the US and how vulnerable the US Is right now for takeover. You know, with Russia and China, they. He knows how all of that works more than anyone because he was on the Senate Intelligence Committee. So he knows more than these other bozos. He knows how dangerous Putin is. He knows how dangerous all the policies that Trump is doing. He knows how dangerous they are. But he's willing to sacrifice the democracy of the United states on the 1.001% chance that he'll get to be president in 20, 20, 28. I mean, he's willing to sacrifice it all for his own personal gain. And it's a coward. Cowardice. And I am with you. I am so angry about the minority leadership in the Senate, in the House. You know, I saw a couple tweets from Chuckles. It's like, well, you know, they said they're America First. It's not, Marco Rubio is the American people. He is a traitor. He is participating in war crimes. That should be the headline coming out of him. And instead it's, well, they're not doing what they said. Well, shut the fuck up. Sit down and shut the fuck up. All right? Please. Like this video.
