The President of Panama is striking back hard against Donald Trump after Donald Trump stated at his inauguration Back hard against Donald Trump after Donald Trump stated at his inauguration speech that he wants to, quote, take back Panama, essentially saying that he wants to use United States military force to conquer the sovereign nation of Panama. So Panama's President Jose Raul Molina said the following on behalf of the Republic of Panama and its people, I must reject in its entirety the words expressed by President Donald Trump regarding Panama and its canal and his inaugural address. I reiterate what I expressed in my message to the Nation on December 22. The canal is and will continue to be Panama's and its administration will continue to be under Panamanian control with respect to its permanent neutrality. There is no presence of any nation in the world that interferes with our administration. The Canal was not a concession from anyone. It was the result of generational struggles that culminated in 1999 as a result of the Torrios Carter Treaty and since then, until now, for 25 years without interruption, we have managed and expanded it responsibly to serve the world and its commerce and including the United States. We will exercise the right that protects us, the legal basis of the treaty, the dignity that distinguishes us, and the strength that international law gives us as the ideal way to manage relations between countries and above all between allied and friendly countries, as demonstrated by history and our actions with respect to the United States. Dialogue is always the way to clarify the points mentioned without undermining our right, total sovereignty and ownership of our Canal. Jose Raul Molino, President of the Republic of Panama and while Fox and other Trump propaganda networks are out there looking like those Russia state TV networks like Jesse Water saying Donald Trump said during his inauguration speech he wants to take back Panama. It's the most excited I've ever been in my entire life. That's from Jesse Waters, who reminds me of that Hunger Games reporter. The people of Panama are just in the past 24 hours, mass protests at the United States Embassy and throughout Panama City have broken out protesting the United States of America with people from Panama spitting on the United States flag, burning the flag and saying that the United States of America needs to stay the hell out of Panama. The people of Panama are pissed as Donald Trump is destroying America's relationship there, destroying our relationship with Mexico, destroying America's relationship with Central America, with South America, with Europe, with our allies. But Donald Trump did say that he really likes Kim Jong Un. On his inauguration, Donald Trump said that he's talking to Kim Jong Un about building conflicts condos in North Korea. How utterly pathetic is that? Here are protesters in Panama in the past 24 hours burning the US flag and vowing to defend against any Trump led invasion. Play this clip. By the way, here is some union members part of this protest saying neither Trump nor others nor their army have anything to do in Panama. You'll see right here more very, very, very serious images of what the people of Panama are doing in response to Donald Trump's a ridiculously offensive speech here. Play this clip.

Folks, just a little bit of history too on Panama. A few things. First and foremost, Donald Trump. His big complaint is that there's Donald Trump lies and says China owns the canal now and China's running the canal. That's not true. China is very influential in Panama though they have historical ties together. But setting that aside, diplomatic relationships between Beijing and Panama were established during the first Trump administration during a very weak international policy from Donald Trump then. So Trump's whole complaint that China built this official foothold. Panama was recognizing or recognized Taiwan up until 2017 and then it broke off relations with Taiwan in favor of Beijing during right around June of 2017 when Trump was in office then in December of 2018, Xi Jinping took a visit to Panama, an official state visit again while Trump was in office. And then billions of dollars were invested. Was invested in Panama by China building relations. China saying that they respect Panama's sovereignty. And as part of The Silk Road 2. The Silk Road 2 by China, they are extending investments in South American country, Central American countries, and throughout the world as a form of diplomacy. It should be noted. Just a quick fact check on the things that Donald Trump says. The US did not lose 38,000 people building the Panama Canal. China does not control the canal. US Is not ripped off by cat. By the canal tolls. Panama is not violating any treaty. As Shibli Talami says. It took only a few days after Trump's remark for this joke to start circulating among China specialists. Question, what does Xi Jinping feel when Trump starts talking about conquering Panama and Greenland? Answer Hungary for Taiwan. When Trump uses this rhetoric, it legitimize rhetoric. It legitimizes Xi Jinping's desire to take over Taiwan. It legitimizes. Shouldn't legitimize. But it makes Vladimir Putin's statements about taking over Ukraine and the sovereignty of other nations go. Well, Trump's talking about doing it with Greenland, Canada, Mexico, Panama, um, all of these countries. So we're just doing what Donald Trump's doing. It's why it creates this great instability in the world. By the way, Donald Trump's first day, 24 hours passed while he praises Kim Jong Un, while he threatens to conquer Panama, no peace in Ukraine. I mean, wasn't the whole thing that these magas trying to say is, oh, Donald Trump, he's gonna stop World War Three? No, he's not. He's going to be the bad guy in World War Three. He's going to start it. What are you talking about? And Donald Trump's was not talking about peace. He was talking about conquering Panama, a sovereign nation, in his inauguration speech. Now, no talk about healthcare, no talk about unions, no talk about workers, no talk about lowering prices, no talk about inflation, other than Donald Trump saying yesterday, and he didn't think inflation's really a big issue. Trump says the biggest issue is people from mental institutions coming in, which I don't know what he's talking about. Um, he says, but, man, inflation's not really a big deal. I want to show you this clip right here. Um, it's our buddy Corey Hargraves, a former army sniper who did two tours in Iraq. And Corey Hargraves has a message to These MAGA supporters who are apparently now supporting Donald Trump wanting to conquer Panama. And what Hargraves says is, Trump's gonna send poor Americans, young Americans, what, to die in wars against our allies. And this is coming from an ex army sniper who knows about battle. Here's what Corey Hargraves has to say. Play this clip.

Nobody with the last name Trump has ever served in uniform in 150 years. John McCain was in a POW camp for six years in Vietnam being. He was tortured for six years and he came home and. And he was mocked by a rich, spoiled brat who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Because families, families like Trump, don't sacrifice their lives or the lives of their children. They convince poor people to sacrifice their life on behalf of. Of them. And in a perfect world, like, I understand that that's the way that this has to go, but it. When we're talking about going to war with allies, it's just. It's insane to me. It's. I have no idea how we, how I am surviving as a veteran where we're not talking about North Korea as our enemy, we're not talking about Russia, who is fighting Ukraine, who wants to join NATO, we're not talking about that. One of our public enemy number one. We're talking about going to war with our fucking allies.

And just so you recall as well, the President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, several weeks ago, she came out with very strong statements in support of Panama's sovereignty, saying, the Panama Canal belongs to Panamanians only. You replay this clip. And by the way, Donald Trump managed to basically offend everyone when he was asked about Latin American countries and Brazil, he goes, we really don't need them. They need us much more than we need them. Everybody needs us, he says. Donald Trump went on to say that with respect to Gaza, not our war, it's their war. I'm not confident that there will continue to be a ceasefire there. Um, that's what he says there. And then he thought that Spain was part of the BRICS bloc, part of the European Union. The BRICS bloc is Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa and a bunch of other nations as well that are joining. Maybe Spain and others will start and Mexico may join the BRICS bloc if Trump keeps behaving this way, making China feel like a more reliable ally than the United States of America. But, yeah, Donald Trump said that Spain's part of the bricks block and he wants to tariff Spain.
