a real story, right? They want to sell this as something that's real. So all right, so what's happening is that New York, I guess Manhattan prosecutor Attorney Alvin Bragg, he's notifying attorneys. I heard this in the New York Post that the commander, the ex-commander-in-chief Trump is going to be asked to defend himself in front of a grand jury hearing. Now people in the know say that if you're…
← Previous segment →airline travel, he asked the Biden administration to confirm that Djokovic would be let into Florida if he came by boat. Because apparently you can come by boat but not airline. What? Are you kidding me? That's a real thing. That's a real thing. And the government hasn't moved to fix it. So the government should either make the boats require the vaccination or make the airlines not. But it's just absurd to have the difference. So apparently DeSantis wants to make a boat available. Now what do you do about that except standing ovation? Am I wrong? I mean let's just standing ovation. Stuff yeah that's, there is just no other reaction to that. You just can't react any other way. Standing ovation. That's it. And he just keeps doing that.
War on the cartels. So more I guess Lindsey Graham and who else, Senator John Kennedy, are putting through some legislation to make the cartels terrorist organizations which would unleash the military upon them. I believe Ted Cruz is more in favor of financial actions. What do you think would be the best play? Financial only plus whatever else we're doing? Financial only or direct military action? Both. Yeah I'm going to say both because that's what it took to beat ISIS, am I right? ISIS was a military plus financial and Trump did seem to succeed in defeating ISIS. It does look like it. It looks like it to me.
So I don't know what will happen but I love the fact that the cartel that kidnapped and then killed two Americans, I love the fact that they apologized. That really happened, right? So if you have a cartel apologizing to the United States that only means one thing. They do not want the military to get involved. Do not. Very much do not. Now what does that tell you? I'll tell you what it tells me. President Trump would solve this in an afternoon. Do you know why? Because once you know they're afraid of the military you negotiate with them directly. Imagine Trump talking to the heads of the cartels because I think he could get a call. I think Trump could actually get the heads of the cartel on the phone, don't you? I mean if they thought they could do it without getting caught I think so. And I think he could say directly we're gonna up your and it's going to happen fast. If you want to get out of the death ray that's coming your way and you can't get out of it the only thing you can do is negotiate. And that negotiation means you stop sending stuff to us. Maybe we help you turn your operation into something positive. For example would it be crazy to say that they had, whoever the leaders of the cartels are, look we're very impressed with your organizational skills. We're also going to kill you in a week. But if you'd like to, Mexico needs a lot of industry and if you'd like to do what American robber barons did in this country which is you start by doing some really sketchy illegal, become a robber baron and then you try to move your operation into legal businesses like Crocker. You know you was one of the guys with the Transcontinental Railroad. Those guys were all just bastards and you know they're just the worst people in the world by today's standards of course. Even then by their standards they were just horrible people, terrible crooks. And when they got rich the thing they needed more than anything is to make their kids and their kids' kids not live under the yoke of some criminal organization. So I believe that Trump could actually, I keep using that word, I think he could actually talk some of the cartels into taking a better offer because the other offer is dead and there's no negotiating on that. You either take the offer or you're dead in a week. I think that's, I think Trump could ge

t that done. Now you might not be the only one who can get it done but I think you'd be the best. I think you'd be the best. You know I think the others maybe you could do it too. You know the story about Fauci. You probably noticed I've talked less about Fauci than anybody who does what I do, you know talking about the news. You probably wondered about that. Why don't you talk about Fauci more?…
