	But the best way for this to end is have an Eliot Ness, a White Earp in Russia, the Russian Springs, so to speak, where people rise up and take him down, because if he continues to be their leader, then he's going to make you complicit with war crimes, you're a good people, you'll never have a future, you'll be isolated from the world, and you'll live in abject poverty.
	So I'm hoping somebody in Russia will understand that he's destroying Russia, and you need to take this guy out by any means possible.
	Is there a situation that Lindsey Graham can't make worse by opening his gob?
	I don't think so.
	Welcome, dear friends.
	It's Friday.
	Isn't it Friday?
	Is it Friday?
	Feels like Friday.
	It is America First.
	I'm your host.
	It's the Salem Radio Network.
	We celebrate the Second Amendment, as the Ukrainians understand, and we're going to give you the latest updates on the situation in Ukraine and ask You do not want to miss a minute!
	burning questions.
	We will have one of the founding members of Delta Force with us, General Jerry Boykin.
	As usual, our national security foreign policy update with Jim Carafano.
	We're going to have a dedicated Second Amendment segment on updating you on what Biden is doing.
	And then former special operator John Lovell, the founder of the Warrior Poets Society for the whole third hour of the show.
	You do not want to miss a minute.
	But first, what an idiot.
	Lindsey Graham.
	If you open the Webster's Dictionary and you look up chicken hawk, I think you see a picture of Lindsey Graham.
	The idea that Vladimir Putin, who is evil, who is a murderer, should be assassinated is not going to improve things.
	Not even he has called for the assassination of Western leaders.
	Not exactly constructive, Lindsey.
	Why don't you just shut up, you fake conservative?
	Let's ask the real questions you want answered.
	I have in front of me six questions from a deep, deep survey of our listeners.
	Well, my producer, who knows our listeners very, very well.
	And I have just been given them.
	And he says, this is what the audience wants to hear.
	And he goes, number one.
	What is happening?
	Whose side should we be on?
	Just because Vladimir Putin is fighting globalists does not mean we should be on his side.
	He's a communist.
	He's a former KGB officer.
	He's not some hero of the West because he poses bare-chested on the back of a horse.
	This is a man who hates you and hates America.
	He's not a Christian.
	He used to persecute Christians.
	Let's be accurate about who invaded who.
	And, oh yeah, I get it.
	Ukraine.
	Not a really functioning, uncorrupt country.
	There is no evidence that Zelensky, its president, is corrupt.
	But it's had its fair share of problems.
	It's had us, especially the Democrats, like Hillary, mucking around in their politics.
	But so what?
	It's an independent nation.
	Because we mucked around in their backyard?
	Or because Burisma that gave $83,000 a month to Hunter for a no-show job is a Ukrainian oil company?
	Does that mean that Ukraine doesn't get to exist?
	Does it mean that anybody can invade them?
	Let's think logically.
	This is an independent nation that doesn't want to be part of Russia.
	And the analogies...
	I keep hearing this, well, NATO was going to put missiles on Ukrainian soil and we wouldn't let the Russians or anybody else, the Chinese, put missiles in Mexico, would we?
	Hang on a second.
	That's the moral equivalency argument of the Cold War.
	That all states are the same.
	There is a qualitative difference between America and Russia.
	There is a qualitative difference between Ukraine and Russia.
	Putin has peddled a lie for 23 years that NATO is on the march.
	We are being encircled by those dastardly Democrats.
	Those democracies with their free markets.
	We aren't an empire.
	There's no emperor of NATO who uses force to expand up to the borders of Russia.
	NATO is a club.
	You can apply to join.
	And if you meet the requirements of collective defence, you can join.
	Nobody... When we opened up NATO to Hungary, where I served for 15 years, when we opened it up to the Baltic states who had been swallowed up by Stalin, we didn't invade the Baltic states, we didn't gobble them up.
	They wanted to join NATO.
	They applied.
	They had to meet criteria.
	And then when they met them, they were let in.
	There's no moral equivalent.
	It's like saying the Warsaw Pact was the same as NATO.
	No, the Warsaw Pact was Russia, the Soviet Union, controlling every other slave nation in the pact.
	NATO was a voluntary entity.
	Question number three.
	What can we do?
	Without making it World War 3.
	Very simply, don't deploy our troops to the territory of a non-NATO nation like Ukraine, but make it possible for the Ukrainians to make the Russian invaders bleed.
	That means armaments, it means munitions, and it means the provision of intelligence, because we have the best satellite and SIGINT signals intelligence capabilities to allow the Kiev government to target Russian invading units.
	The end of the day, this war is about one thing.
	1776 Why do we believe in the Bill of Rights in our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution?
	Thank you.
	Because an unjust government had usurped the rights of the people living on our soil.
	We stood up and we used force to gain our liberty.
	How is that different from what is happening in the Ukraine?
	It isn't.
	An unjust invader.
	Don't tell me Putin is a good guy.
	He's not.
	He's a murderer.
	Invaded a nation that hadn't done anything to him.
	Don't talk to me about the Nazi brigades and their genocide.
	We interviewed Konstantin Kissin.
	An ethnic Russian who lived in the Ukraine.
	And as he said, my family's still there.
	If there had been a genocide against ethnic Russians, I would have heard about it because it would have targeted my family as well.
	It's the same as Poland in 39 as the Sudetenland in 38.
	It's a lie.
	It's a pretext.
	And right now, Ukrainian men and boys are fighting to keep their nation free.
	That is the moral reality.
	That is the moral clarity we need.
	And this nation would not exist If other nations had not helped us in our revolutionary war, foremost among them the French, yes.
	If we hadn't been resupplied by the nation of France, Washington would not have won.
	Now we need to do the same for others who are fighting for their lives, for their liberty, and for their pursuit of happiness.
	This is Ukraine's 1776.

	Give it a little bit and then I'll dial up Lieutenant General.
	Rumble chat's still, uh, quite a few people still disagreeing with you on this one, Seb.
	No, they will, but they need to Live in the real world.
	What are they basing it on?
	Are they saying Putin's a good guy and there's Nazi genocide in Ukraine?
	Let's see, one guy says, because it's an independent nation doesn't mean we should get involved by sending weapons.
	Because France shouldn't have in 1776, right?
	And the same guy later on said, OMG Ukraine is not the colonies in 1776.
	Yeah.
	Deep argument.
	Deep argument.
	If you don't like it, you don't have to watch.
	We sent arms to the Taliban.
	Wow.
	Right.
	I just texted someone that, actually.
	The enemy of your enemy can still be your enemy.
	Yeah, that's- the enemy-the-enemy mantra has been, like, definitely been a huge problem in our foreign policy since the World War II era, unfortunately.
	I think it was Patton who warned, like, yeah, teaming up- like, yeah, the Nazis were bad guys, but teaming up with the Soviets in the long run obviously was not a great thing.
	This is also a hangover of the Iraq war in Afghanistan.
	Oh, totally, totally, totally, totally, totally.
	America First, what's your name?
	Wait, what do you want to say?
	Alright, two minutes out, I'll call him now.
	I'll scratch on one, LTG, Jerry Boykin retired.
	Hello, General Boykin, can you hear us?
	Yep, I hear you.
	Wonderful, we hear you, we see you, just letting you know the mics are live on our video livestream at this time.
	General, welcome back.
	Thanks for joining us today.
	Well, it's good to be with you.
	I heard the sad news that we lost General Singlaub.
	Yeah, yeah.
	All right, hang on.
	He was quite an icon, you know?
	I know.
	He must have been in his 90s, no?
	He was 100.
	He was 100?
	Wow.
	Yeah, he was 100.
	- He was 100. - He was 100?
	Wow. - Yeah, he was 100. - Great. - Are you executive vice president, What's your title?
	Executive vice president.
	Executive, okay.
	Are you using headphones by any chance, General?
	I thought I heard a slight echo on your end.
	We're getting a little bit of an echo.
	Can you just say something, General?
	I'm not using headphones.
	That sounds good.
	Sounds good.
	Alright, 40 seconds.
	Yep, coming with Israel here.
	Going in with Israel.
	I'll do that.

	He has been very, very busy in the last two and a half weeks, and rightly so.
	We are delighted to get him on the show.
	Lieutenant General Jerry Boykin, He is the executive vice president at the Family Research Council, served as undersecretary of defense for intelligence, 36 years in uniform, 13 of those with Delta Force.
	General Boykin, welcome back to America First.
	It's always a privilege and a pleasure to be on with you.
	The privilege is ours.
	Let's start with, let's get right into it.
	I was speaking to the premier Sovietologist, criminologist of the UK yesterday and he said the Russian forces have not performed as well as Putin expected in Ukraine.
	Give us your unclassified assessment of the last two weeks.
	Yeah.
	You know, I, I think that, uh, there were a lot of miscalculations on the part of Vladimir Putin and in many areas, not the least of which is, uh, his military.
	I, you know, what you're seeing here is you're seeing a bunch of, uh, conscripts that, uh, actually did not know what they were doing when they, uh, staged, uh, out on the borders of Ukraine there.
	And then all of a sudden.
	You know, you've got, uh, you've got these young men that are not unlike American young men.
	And, uh, once they see the first buddy get killed, uh, it, the reality sets in.
	And I think at that point, uh, that's when you start seeing these things that we're hearing reports about of, uh, them surrendering of them, uh, letting the gas out of their own vehicle.
	So they, they don't have to go into, uh, the, uh, cities.
	And, uh, I think that, uh, what happened was.
	Putin assumed that because they had done exercises that they could go in probably one of the most complex military operations that we've seen and do well.
	And it was just the opposite.
	Their logistics can't keep up.
	I think that their intelligence is failing them.
	And I think that the equalizer on the battlefield, as I've said before, is two things.
	One is unit cohesion.
	The Ukrainians have that, and the other one is a sense of purpose.
	The Ukrainians have that.
	At the same time, the Russians don't.
	Again, because they're poorly led, they're poorly supplied, and they were not up for this fight, and I think they're regrouping now.
	Oh, if you look at the disposition of forces, those that are in country, Russian invaders are about 30% of those arrayed along the Ukrainian border.
	So there's another two thirds waiting to be deployed in a second or tertiary phase.
	As a result, the and you know, this was our main enemy during the Cold War.
	So you are qualified to comment on this beyond anybody else.
	If they have sent the conscripts in.
	They've probably kept their best troops for the second and third phases, which means that we could see even greater brutality in the weeks to come from the Russians, correct?
	We're already seeing it.
	And I think it's just going to get worse.
	Look, when they feel trapped, when they feel that they have gotten into something that they weren't prepared for, they've bitten off more than they can chew.
	I think they're going to do the same thing they did in Chechnya.
	I think the same thing they did in Aleppo.
	They're going to start leveling the cities.
	You already see the beginnings of that now.
	And your reaction to those who say they're conservatives, who say this doesn't matter, this is irrelevant, it's thousands of miles away, and we should just ignore it in general?
	Yeah, where does it stop?
	They need to understand Vladimir Putin.
	They need to understand his mentality.
	They need to understand that he is recreating the Soviet Union.
	And where does it stop?
	If we don't take a stand at this point, and we are taking a stand by providing materiel as well as the sanctions, although I don't think the sanctions are enough.
	I think we've got to do more, but I'm not in favor of a no-fly zone.
	But where does it stop?
	Is Poland next?
	Are the Baltic states next?
	Do we really believe in democracy and freedom?
	And are we going to really stand up for that when the going gets tough?
	And I think that Americans should be all in for the Ukraine.
	And when it comes to why now, how crucial to the calculations of the Kremlin was the precipitous withdrawal of the United States from Afghanistan?
	It showed absolute weakness.
	That and the fact that, and I want to think, I want people to think about this.
	We also canceled our pipeline and then lifted the sanctions on the Russian pipeline.
	Do you think that didn't show a bit of weakness on our part?
	I mean, what was the message that we were sending to Putin?
	And the message was that in terms of foreign policy and even our military, given what happened in the Ukraine, I mean, Uh, wherever that was in Afghanistan, uh, that showed weakness on our part.
	And I think that, uh, Vladimir Putin's thought process was it's now or never because Biden's only going to be a one term president.
	It's now or never.
	We do it while he's in office and his administration's in control or, uh, we don't do it.
	He's the author of Man to Man, Rediscovering Masculinity in a Challenging World.
	Follow him at Jen Boykin.
	If you were advising the Kiev regime in terms of their resistance to the Russian invaders, what would you be saying to them?
	It's clear that they have the will to fight on their side because they're saving their homeland.
	But what do they need to be preparing for, General Boykin?
	Well, I think they need to be preparing for a siege.
	I think that's what it's going to wind up being.
	And, uh, Putin, I think is smart enough to try not to get bogged down in these cities.
	Now he may not be able to avoid doing that.
	And that is when, uh, he's already lost a lot of soldiers.
	He's lost a lot of his own, uh, military, but, uh, that's when they're going to get ground down.
	They're going to get to a point where, uh, they realize this was a mistake.
	Look, it's not unlike Fallujah and some of the places where we fought in Afghanistan.
	And I think that, uh, what he's going to do then has become even more irrational.
	And I think he's going to be a very dangerous man at that point, because what's left for him is to either use a tactical nuclear weapon or to start leveling these cities.
	And, uh, again, we already see that he is perfectly willing to, uh, to kill noncombatants, women and children, uh, and people that are not involved in the fighting at all.
	And he's willing to destroy the cities.
	And that's what I fear most.
	You know, you can't expect to occupy a country that has been completely destroyed.
	And his ultimate objective is to control that part of the world.
	And I think that what he's going to do is get bogged down and wind up destroying it.
	Yeah, well that's what Russians do and he is a former KGB colonel.
	Thank you for joining us General Jerry Boykin.
	Follow him at Jen Boykin.
	His book is Man to Man.
	I'm Sebastian Gawker.
	This is America First.
	Your calls next here on the Salem Radio Network.
	General Boykin, you still there? you still there?
	Yeah, I'm here.
	Thank you, sir.
	Thank you so much.
	Have a great weekend.
	Glad to be with you, sir.
	See ya.
	God bless.
	Thank you very much.
	Can you dig up the cut from, I think it's Tuesday, I didn't use a bright bar.
	Do you still have that, Eric?
	I'm gonna get it.
	The cut from Tuesday?
	Yep, of Andrew.
	Let me see.
	What day was today?
	the first one with Andrew Breitbart.
	Oh, give me four.
	Today's four.
	Okay.
	This is only going to lead to... Hello, who is this?
	Dr. T, this is Adam calling from Albuquerque.
	Thanks for putting me on.
	Yeah, go ahead, Adam.
	I have a question for you, some advice.
	The U.S.
	State Department, in conjunction with Luluthra and Family Services, has relocated a family of 12 Afghanis three doors down from me, Ghulam and Parween Coxar, with their 10 children.
	I have two young children who play freely outside and a wife.
	I contacted the homeowner and he told me that they have been vetted by the State Department.
	When I asked him about the makeup of the family, like how old the children were, he came in with some legalese.
	I wanted to get your take on the situation.
	I'm most concerned about my 10 and 13-year-old boys being outside alone.
	What should my family be on the lookout for?
	Well, you shouldn't call up a national radio show and give people's real names.
	Thank you very much.
	I have that Breitbart cup, by the way.
	Great.
	How long is it?
	One minute, 58 seconds.
	Great.
	What should I be on the lookout for?
	Maybe don't let your kids out.
	Hello?
	Two minutes.
	Hey.
	Titles?
	What you need to know about Ukraine.
	That monologue or Boykin?
	Monologue.
	And then Boykin.
	Biden facilitated the war.
	Okay, food for the poor coming up here.
	And that's it.
	So we're doing a minute short.
	Got it.
	All right, I'll tee up the cut for food for the poor.
	Okay.
	Oh, hello. hello.
	We got a donation via the Rumble Rants chat.
	One dollar.
	I read it already.
	It's an interesting one.
	Nothing bad in it, but it's an interesting statement from Mr. Paul Otto Newman, who says, quote, if Ukraine joins the EU after all of this, they're transferring national sovereignty from Kiev, or Moscow if they lose the war, to Brussels.
	Either way, Ukrainians won't be in charge of Ukraine.
	Well, in that case, Brexit couldn't have happened.
	30 seconds.
	Oh, shoot.
	Yeah, let me zoom out the shot here.
	All right.
	20 seconds. Stand by.
	24.
	Stand by.
	Portions of America First are brought to you in part by Stand with Israel Tour.
	Thank you for everybody who's already supported our Food for the Poor campaign.
	As we see the images from Europe, we know that there are tens of thousands of children far closer to home in our own hemisphere who are suffering.
	Just listen to Linda from Honduras on the ground, who is telling you what your donations are actually doing.
	We could never, ever Do it without food for the poor and their donors.
	And we pray for you every day.
	And I know that person up in the mountain that got that five pounds of rice or five pounds of beans, they'll be praying.
	They'll be praying and blessing you for the rest of their lives.
	For the rest of their lives, because you saved them and their children.
	Make a difference today.
	Save a life, as our Lord and Savior told us.
	Come unto me, the little children.
	We must help them.
	They are the priority.
	You could save a life for just $88.
	A one-time donation would feed one of these children for a whole year and provide them clean drinking water.
	If you donate $175, that's two children whose lives you have literally saved by giving them enough to eat for a whole year.
	Make a difference.
	Call today 855-330-HOPE.
	That's 855-330-HOPE.

	Let's go to your calls.
	Line one, Derek Cleveland.
	Hey, Dr. Gorka.
	Thank you for taking my call today.
	So, you know, looking things up, and you find so much different information.
	Now, I'm just asking you about the 2014 in Ukraine, that coup, I think it was called the Dignity Revolution, Maidan.
	The Maidan, right.
	And I'm just asking you, Doctor, what happened in that?
	I know the President was ousted, it sounded like it was A lot of rioting, a lot of violence, but I'm not clear on it.
	So I'm just asking you, what do you know about it?
	What happened then?
	Right.
	The first thing to understand is not what happened then in 2013, but what happened in 2004 and 2005, where you had the incumbent president kind of anoint his guy to become the next president, Yanukovych.
	It was an incredibly Flawed election.
	That's why you had the Orange Revolution.
	That led to a decision by the Supreme Court of the Ukraine to actually redo the election and to have Yushchenko replace Yanukovych.
	That's where it all really begins.
	In 2013, you had the same kind of phenomena with the response to the government saying we want to join the European Union.
	an attempt for a hardcore candidate to say, no, we're not going to join the European Union, and then the response to that.
	So a lot of what we're reading is conservative response to the Orange Revolution in 2004, which really, really isn't relevant.
	What's relevant is the fact that Russians invaded that territory, a sovereign nation, but we will go deeper into both of those words We've got a very good expert coming on the show next week to unpack all of it, but that is part and parcel of the propaganda being spun right now.
	Thank you.
	Line two, Al, California.
	How you doing, Sebastian?
	Good, it's a Friday!
	I'm calling you from the land of hope and glory.
	Very good.
	I've got a couple of questions for you.
	I might want to change the second one.
	The first one is, the sniper in Saving Private Ryan, who was actually a Canadian actor, was left-handed, so I noticed they bent the bolt up on the Springfield rifle and he had to reach over the scope to actuate the bolt.
	I'd never seen the bolt altered for a left-handed sniper's rifle on the Springfield.
	Have you?
	I can't say I have.
	I remember him reaching over and having to operate it with his other hand, but I didn't notice the bolt being bent up, but it's a technique that can be done, so I'll have to watch it again.
	Yeah, I thought it was done for the movie.
	The second thing is, I had a question about Putin, which is a rather obvious one.
	Connection is to General Singlab.
	General Singlab jumped ahead of the Normandy invasion wearing a British paratrooper helmet and a smock.
	Do you know who owns it now?
	Me.
	Are you kidding?
	No.
	How on earth?
	We just lost one of our greatest warriors General Singlab just a few days ago and I mentioned him to General Boykin.
	I didn't know he was a hundred years old.
	How on earth do you have General Singlab's helmet?
	Well, he was railroaded by Jimmy Carter because he wanted to delay removing troops from Korea.
	Correct.
	And he had to sell all of his artifacts, so I bought his helmet and smock.
	Oh my gosh.
	All right, stay on the line.
	I need photographs of those.
	You need to send them to Mr. G. The idea that you, that one of our loyal listeners who phones in every Friday, actually owns a piece of history like the legendary General Singlab's smock and helmet.
	You've got to email that or you've got to send a text to Jeff because I need to see that.
	Absolutely stunning.
	That's why we have the greatest callers on the planet.
	This is America First.
	Your call is 833-33-GORKA.
	That's 833-334-6752.
	Make sure you're subscribed to the podcast wherever you get your podcasts because we have a cracker of a show, especially our third-hour guest.
	Mike's back on.
	Oh, hang on.
	Surprisingly enough, we do need ins and outs for Boris.
	What?
	Yeah.
	No, that's not possible.
	I just looked through, I was like... What's up?
	We need ins and outs for Boris.
	I haven't done a one-on-one in a while.
	Right now?
	Mm-hmm.
	Mm-hmm.
	I think we need one more.
	Welcome back to... Another donation from the same guy in the Rumble chat, Paul Otto Newman.
	Another $1 donation.
	He follows up saying, quote, the whole thing about Ukraine joining the EU.
	Yeah, yeah.
	This isn't an argument for not supporting Ukraine.
	I think we should.
	But it is something that should be thought about for the future.
	All right, so if you're watching, what's his name?
	Paul Otto... Paul, just Paul, just Paul.
	It's his username, it could be fake, but yeah.
	Yeah, but it might not be.
	So you're right in observing the damage done to the sovereignty of any EU member nation, but it's not... they call it...
	Classic socialist kind of jargon.
	The pooling of collected sovereignty.
	But yes, you lose control because the European Parliament's legislation actually supersedes your home legislation of the independent member states, which is such an atrocity.
	Nevertheless, it's not a full loss of sovereignty.
	If it were, the UK could never have affected Brexit, which it did.
	So I understand your concerns, but for a nation like the Ukraine, they want to be tied into Europe closer.
	I think their priority is to be part of a club of Western nations so that Russia can't do this again.
	That's their calculus.
	But great question.
	Meet the mics real fast.
	Mics are now...
	...and I'll see you next time.
	...and I'll see you next time.
	You got 50 seconds.
	50 seconds.
	Want to use any more cuts?
	What does Juan mean?
	That's what he means.
	He's a... Okay.
	Oh boy.
	Oh.
	Because Rachel Maddow was talking about 1776.
	Hang on, hang on, hang on.
	How long is it?
	It's a minute fifty-eight.
	Alright, I'll use it here.
	This is D, right?
	Yes, this is D. We've got merch and Patriot Mobile here.
	Teeing it up.
	Standing by.
	Stand by. 20 seconds. Stand by. Stand by.
	Stand by.
	Portions of America First are brought to you by Food for the Poor.
	It's been an insane week.
	It's going to be like this for weeks to come.
	I didn't get what I wanted to do on Tuesday.
	This week is the 10th.
	10th?
	How did that happen?
	10th anniversary of the passing of Andrew Breitbart.
	Paige Breitbart dot com, Alex Mara, the team did an amazing tribute.
	It is a two hour long collection of tributes to him.
	We're going to post the videos right now.
	I was honored to provide one of the tributes to Andrew on the 10th anniversary of his passing.
	Here's a little clip just to remind all of you how much we owe this man and how catalytic he was for the conservative movement.
	Play cut.
	It was the Clarence Thomas hearing.
	It changed my life.
	When I graduated from college, I was waiting tables at a hip restaurant in Venice, California.
	And after work, I would race home to go watch the Thomas hearings.
	I wanted him to go down based upon the premise that the media set up.
	That this guy was a serial sexual harasser and basically a monster among women.
	I remember Barbara Boxer and Patricia Schroeder and a series of women all wearing red standing behind Anita Hill and I wanted to see Clarence Thomas taken down.
	By the end of the week, in which I watched no evidence come out, it was mystery evidence.
	You don't understand what it's like to be a woman in the workplace when the worst thing that came out of it was Then in all the years that she was with him, going job to job to job, getting raised, getting promoted, the worst thing that he ever said at one point, allegedly, was he said there's a pubic hair on a Coke can.
	I remember thinking, this is it?
	And Ted Kennedy and Joe Biden are asking, are asking this man whether or not he's rented pornography or knows who Long Dong Silver is.
	And I did not understand a world, I couldn't understand what Ted Kennedy, of all people with his background, you know, Lothario, Chappaquiddick, kind of a Kind of a known, you know, carouser that this guy had the gall to go after Clarence Thomas.
	I said, what does he know about the NAACP and the media that they're not going to attack him for being a racist, for going after a man who was raised by his grandparents and who was raised by sharecroppers, who is experiencing the epitome of the American dream?
	And once I saw the paradigm, That's why I call it the Democrat Media Complex.
	He implicitly knew that his political career was safe from the media for attacking a black man on national television.
	A high-tech lynching which was led by Joe Biden.
	That's what turned Andrew Barth, if you read his autobiography, admits it, from being a drunk liberal into a freedom fighter for the truth.
	You are missed, Andrew.
	I hope you are smiling down upon us right now.
	His book, his autobiography, changed my life.
	Read Righteous Indignation.
	And you'll find out what it means to be a real warrior.
	Thank you, Andrew.
	Rest in peace.
	Let's go to your calls.
	Alex, Brooklyn, welcome.
	Happy Friday.
	Hey, Sebastian, thanks for taking the call.
	You know, you actually explained the situation in Ukraine of 2014 and 2005 way better than did Kamal Harris explain the situation in Ukraine right now today.
	You mean I didn't say, big country, little country, it's bad, it's good.
	Can I just share something with you guys?
	When I pointed that clip out on Twitter two days ago, I had Libs, you know, trash tweet me saying, but you don't understand, she was talking to a kindergarten audience.
	No, she was on a black podcast, which is worse, Alex, because that means she thinks that the audience for a black podcast should be spoken to as if they're at kindergarten.
	Yeah, but that's an old story.
	They only think that they're stupid.
	They think they can't get an ID card, but... Yes!
	I was calling to ask you a question, but just before that I wanted to clear something up.
	You're not comparing Zelensky to Washington.
	No, of course not!
	You're just saying that the situation in Ukraine... Forget the politicians, okay?
	Forget the politicians.
	Talk about the people who are fighting.
	The young men, the boys who are being given AK-47s are like us in 1776 with our muskets.
	I'm not saying Zelensky is Washington.
	He may turn out to be the greatest leader Europe has ever seen since Churchill.
	I don't know him well enough but right now he's brave and he's fighting for his independence just like we did.
	Sebastian, here's why I called.
	I wanted to ask you, we took out Soleimani in Iran, and my question is, is the United States, is our country capable of taking out Putin?
	Because he's a different ballgame than Iran.
	And is it worth it to take him out?
	Or is there just going to be another monster popping up right after him?
	Are we going to help the situation by taking him out as, you know, Lindsey Graham was saying, we should kill him.
	Somebody in Russia should kill him.
	Is that going to help the situation in any way?
	The only way to take him out would be a declaration of war.
	You'd have to draw, you know, cruise missiles on the Kremlin or in his dacha.
	He's actually hiding right now.
	So, you know, that would literally be the beginning of World War Three.
	And at the end of the day, you know, what changes?
	You don't turn Russia, whoever takes over, you don't turn Russia into Switzerland by taking out the one guy at the top.
	No, he has to be dealt with as bullies are dealt with.
	He has to get a bloody nose.
	Who's going to do it right now?
	The Ukrainians.
	And we have to help them.
	Great question, Alex.
	Stay on the line.
	Let's get Alex one of our America First hats.
	Check out all the amazing gear at SebGorkaStore.com.
	Let's go to Matt.
	Same topic.
	North Carolina.
	Hello.
	Hey, Dr. Gorka.
	Yes.
	Thank you for taking my call.
	Sure.
	What's your question?
	We've got a minute.
	Okay, quickly.
	I'm going to tell you that if, like Lindsey Graham said, Vladimir Putin needs to be executed, assassinated, Don't you think, in your expertise, it should be done inside of Russia, instead of us getting involved?
	Yeah, good point.
	Good point.
	But I don't think Lindsey thought that deeply about that comment.
	He's just trying to fake that he's a tough guy, Matt, because he's not.
	That diminutive little poser who's not even a real conservative, who didn't have President Trump's back, has talked about January 6th in scurrilous ways.
	He's just trying to look hard.
	But yes, Yes, if somebody wanted to take him out, it shouldn't be us trying to take him out.
	Because, by the way, according to U.S.
	statute, that's illegal.
	After the CIA was found trying to do things with Fidel Castro, poisoning him and, you know, those funny joke blow-up cigars, it's actually illegal for a U.S.
	president to plan the assassination of another head of state.
	Sounds a bit weird.
	Sounds a bit silly, like an SNL skit, but that is actually the consequences of the 1960s.
	Thank you, Matt.
	Great cause.
	This is America First, coming to you live from the reliefactor.com studios.

	Okay, we've got MyPillow here. we've got MyPillow here.
	Do you want to come in with the audio?
	Uh, yeah, that's good.
	Cool.
	Do that.
	Do you want three?
	He's serious.
	He's not even, like, trying to.
	Sure.
	He just can't understand why you don't agree with him.
	Oh, God.
	Oh.
	What is it?
	Is that your phone?
	That wasn't me!
	Not me.
	It was my phone.
	And I've never even used Siri.
	I'll trust those AIs, man.
	I've seen enough Terminator movies.
	Alright, we got about a minute?
	Yeah.
	One minute.
	It's good.
	I like the calls today, though, because you're kind of seeing what people are thinking.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Don't go after this.
	It's going to get worse.
	Oh, it is.
	Yeah, the more intense the war gets, the more like... Well, people who have no idea what they're talking about talk a lot.
	I just can't believe there's not more pro-Russia people because they were so good at fixing the election in 2016.
	I know!
	Where are all the bots?
	Where are all the bots?
	America First, what's your name?
	Good question.
	Okay.
	Alright, where are you calling from?
	25 seconds coming in with the Heartland Financial Audio.
	No, actually, I'll just do it.
	Come in with 4.
	coming in with cut floor yeah 10 seconds
	dr. g is in the house on america first
	This is only going to lead to, I think, Putin's unraveling in terms of his position in the Russian government.
	Now, what's going to be the tripwire in terms of pressure on oligarchs and pressure on the Russian people and commodities and other types of things, it's unclear.
	But I do believe that Putin's days are numbered, maybe in the double digits.
	But why aren't you sad, John Brennan?
	Putin's days are numb, but he's a fellow communist like yourself.
	You voted for Gus Hall before the CIA strangely hired you.
	Let's go to your calls.
	Let's go to John, Line 5, Tennessee.
	Good afternoon, Dr. G. I'll try to make this as quick as possible.
	I've got a book to recommend to you.
	Yep.
	Red Platoon, written by Clint Remesha, who won the Medal of Honor for his defense of combat outpost Keating.
	All right.
	I've written it down.
	I shall check it out.
	Next question.
	Next comment.
	Are you familiar with the I.P.I.
	Malyuk that is being wielded by Ukrainian special forces?
	I.T.I.
	what?
	I-P-I-I-P-I-Malyuk.
	It is a bullpup AK pattern rifle that the Ukrainian Special Forces developed for themselves and are apparently wielding out in the field.
	I've seen some pictures of it.
	I am not!
	And you get a special prize.
	You're going to get one of our Zelensky, President Zelensky t-shirts because I'm a big bullpup fan from the Shteyr AUG to the brand new Springfield, VHS, Hellion that I just got.
	These are the t-shirts that we have made just this week with President Zelensky.
	It says, I don't need a ride, I need ammunition.
	And John, he's told me about a gun I don't know about, so he gets a reward.
	Great, great, great call.
	Thank you so much.
	David, line one.
	Hello.
	Hey.
	Yes, is this Sebastian?
	Yes it is.
	You've got a minute.
	Hey listen, I have waited to thank you for CPAC.
	Thank you for your opening today about Lindsey Graham.
	Let me tell you, Sebastian, I love you.
	I thought you were too congenial and too friendly on your program.
	I'm the youngest of four boys.
	I'm 80 years old.
	When you walked out and told those people without any Hollywood, without any fancy, walked out and told them you needed courage, I felt like a man that day.
	I know that sounds silly because I am a man, but we need men that will walk out without fanfare, without baloney sauce, without all that stuff, and do what you did.
	Man, it made my day because there was a man out there who you controlled the audience and you told them the truth, and we don't see enough of it.
	Thank you.
	Well, you're a very kind man.
	We don't have time for baloney sauce, but we have time to give David a copy of my book, Signed the Wall for America's Soul.
	God bless you for the kind, kind words.
	I didn't have time for anything else.
	I just had time for the truth.
	If you enjoy the truth as much as we do, support those that make our show possible.
	People like the great Mike Lindell.
	He is under attack.
	He is in the crosshairs of the left.
	Nine of his bank accounts cancelled.
	Support him today.
	Go to mypillow.com, use my name and Mike will give you up to 66% off.

	The rest of you on the line.
	We'll talk to you after the break.
	All right, Mike's back on. Mike's back on.
	Alright, we'll get that out to you in a couple weeks.
	Thanks.
	Thank you.
	You want to take any calls in the break?
	All right, what's your name?
	Um... All right, where are you calling from?
	God, rest of the hour is pretty full guest-wise.
	Yeah, let's block it and I'll take these calls in the A block.
	Okay.
	Six and a half minutes.
	I'm going to check this gun out.
	you Ukrainian bullpup.
	Hang on.
	Oh.
	Oh my gosh.
	No, that's not it.
	That's the Vepr.
	Oh, the Malyuk.
	Here we go.
	Whoa, cool.
	Cool.
	New toys.
	Cool.
	New toys.
	Yeah.
	Oh, actually, it's 762, like the AK.
	Interesting.
	Interesting.
	Do you want this?
	I'm sure that this would go well, right?
	What?
	Line 5.
	I think we should force-buy.
	Right.
	Sure, we'll take it.
	It's Friday.
	No, no, none.
	It's got a tin can and some string.
	We've never had Mike Waller on the show.
	Mike Waller's good about this globalist thing.
	I'll connect you.
	He's a, he's a, well, he's just a guy.
	He's just some crazy guy.
	And I want, do you remember David Satter, who was on Newsmax?
	He was the former Moscow correspondent for the Wall Street Journal.
	Did we have him on the show?
	We had him on Newsmax.
	I'll find it.
	I'll send it to you.
	Let me text Waller.
	That is a funny looking firearm.
	Isn't it?
	I think it's just a re... I think it's a shell that they put around an AK.
	It's like the Kushner PAP conversions.
	They just slid all the mechanism.
	Look at that, yeah.
	It came back. - Did you hear that Biden viral, uh, tour clip?
	No.
	Listen to just the way he's talking, too.
	The medicine has worn off.
	I swear they give him something.
	Oh my god!
	He's terrible at this.
	Absolutely they do.
	Because yesterday he was like falling asleep.
	He was like slurring.
	They gave Biden some mystery substance and they gave Trump Diet Coke and that was the... I just had a chance to visit and have a viral tour of both the Siemens facilities.
	Play that again!
	I just had a chance to visit and have a viral tour about the Siemens facilities.
	What did he just say?
	The what facility?
	He's trying to say virtual.
	A virtual tour of the Siemens facilities.
	Oh my god.
	Both Waller and Satter.
	One on one.
	He's okay.
	Oh, I need more... Play for me... The caller told you.
	Trump messed up his words so much.
	Will you get Cassio to do number one?
	Yeah.
	Alright, give me two and five.
	For example, if he set up Edith Jones, I can assure you that would be a very, very, very difficult fight, and she probably would be full of us.
	What about Janice Rogers-Brown, someone else?
	Excuse me, I'm not... By the way, I misspoke.
	I misspoke.
	Janice Rogers-Brown is what I meant to say.
	I misspoke.
	But wasn't she just confirmed, though?
	How do you invoke the Extraordinary Circumstances Clause of the Agreement of the Gang of Fourteen for somebody who's just been confirmed?
	Because a circuit court of a judge is bound by stare decisis.
	They don't get to make new law.
	They have to abide by the, for example... So what you're saying is the Supreme Court's different than... Different ballgame.
	Totally different ballgame.
	The reason why the price of gas is going up is not because of steps the president has taken.
	They are because President Putin is invading Ukraine, and that is creating a great deal of instability in the global marketplace.
	Six.
	The average for a gallon of regular unleaded in L.A. is a record on its own.
	It's above $5 for the first time ever in this region.
	Over the past month, the average has jumped about 43 cents.
	There's been a new record set nearly every day.
	And compare that to over a year ago.
	A gallon here is $1.38 more expensive today.
	And we are seeing this all across the state.
	Gas prices keep hitting new highs.
	Now in California, the average is spiking just under $5, which, yes, is a new record average high in the Golden State.
	Come in with that.
	Come in with that.
	Come in with that cut.
	And then give me a 10.
	But you also have a responsibility to society.
	Because if you really want to make sure we put this virus, this outbreak, in the rearview mirror, we can make a contribution by not giving the virus the opportunity to circulate among us.
	And you do that by getting vaccinated.
	Among us?
	Like the hit video game show?
	Don't worry.
	Biden only went to the viral semen facilities.
	We're good.
	Give me seven and eight.
	The obvious, every single commodity going through the roof, and that's not transitory.
	That's going to be something that's with us for a long time.
	Think about how all of a sudden the guidance has changed right before the State of the Union address.
	Is that how science works?
	Does the science change based on polling data?
	Does the science change because you have a midterm election coming up?
	I mean, no.
	So we see that and it just causes people to lose confidence.
	Okay, car 15 here.
	I think it's important to show the difference between Biden when he could speak clearly and Biden now when he cannot speak clearly.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	But he still was an idiot then.
	Yeah, he still was an idiot.
	I can say starry decisive.
	This is America First, and here's your host, Dr. Sebastian Gorka.
	The average for a gallon of regular unleaded in L.A.
	is a record on its own.
	It's above $5 for the first time ever in this region.
	Over the past month, the average has jumped about 43 cents.
	There's been a new record set nearly every day.
	And compare that to over a year ago, a gallon here is $1.38 more expensive today.
	And we are seeing this all across the state.
	Gas prices keep hitting new highs.
	Now in California, the average is spiking just under $5, which, yes, is a new record average high in the Golden State.
	Well, I wonder who we have to thank for that.
	Welcome back to America First.
	This is Sebastian Gorka.
	We're continuing to discuss the situation in Ukraine.
	I want to share with you some conclusions I've drawn.
	It's a draft article.
	It won't even be published until at least Monday.
	So nobody, nobody is seeing this except you, our millions of listeners.
	But we've got a couple of people waiting very, very patiently.
	Let's go to Steve, California.
	Thank you, Doctor.
	You know, I agree with Lindsey Graham that we should not be afraid of his nuclear blackmail threats.
	I don't want to live in a world where we have to sit on our hands and watch some maniac destroy all kinds of infrastructure and people, people who rejected his philosophy long ago, people who don't want him.
	He's like a jilted lover who wants to win back a A woman who rejected him and he's just making a fool of himself.
	Here's what I would suggest.
	His billion dollar estate on the ocean?
	Vaporize it.
	His yacht?
	Vaporize it.
	Let him know while he's in the bunker.
	Like Hitler, that when he comes out he has no place to run, no place to go to.
	He's been deposed already.
	And when we vaporize his mansions and his yachts and he launches 5,000 nuclear warheads to Washington, Boston, Los Angeles and New York, you're fine with that?
	Are you fine with that, Steve?
	I think he's bluffing.
	Oh, but you're prepared to risk that?
	I don't want to live in a world... So you're prepared to risk the lives of millions of Americans?
	I would rather risk the lives of the entire world than live in a world that allows a man like me to continue to live in the real world.
	Well, I am very glad that you're not the president, Steve.
	Thank you.
	The rest of us have to live in the real world.
	Let's go to Andrew, line three.
	Hey, how you doing?
	Yeah, trying to live in the real world.
	Yeah, that one scared me.
	Yeah, no, I don't think that we need to be doing that.
	I think that Lindsey Graham's idea, I think it's a bad idea.
	I listened to somebody named, well, Alex.
	Now he's saying that the globalists pushed him into this war.
	Whether they did or not, I don't know.
	And I'm also listening to what you guys are saying.
	I'd like to know what is going on.
	Putin's going nuts.
	He's not nuts.
	He's absolutely not going nuts.
	And your big problem is listening to Alex Jones.
	You want to know what's going on?
	I'll tell you right.
	Yeah.
	Well, you shouldn't be because that will make your brain flow out of your nose and ears.
	You want to know what's going on?
	Here's what's going on.
	All right, guys.
	Nobody except my son has seen this.
	OK, so here are the things I gleaned from the very best Sovietologists, criminologists and based upon my 20 years of doing grand strategy for the DOD and for for the special forces.
	Number one, Vladimir Putin has always wanted to reconstitute as much of the Soviet Union as possible.
	He's a former KGB colonel who has publicly called the loss of the Soviet Union, quote, the greatest geopolitical tragedy of the 20th century.
	He is not insane, nor acting irrationally as a result of drug abuse or steroids.
	His actions of the last three weeks are the natural culmination of his decades-long anti-West rhetoric and statements on the illegitimacy of an independent Ukraine.
	Putin has lost touch with public sentiment in Russia.
	He is petrified of Covid and hasn't done a public event in two years and as such is more isolated than before.
	Second point.
	So far, the Russian army has performed poorly, running out of fuel and not moving in classic protective formation to prevent attack upon their convoys.
	Nevertheless, only one third of the forces deployed to the border of Ukraine have been deployed into Ukraine.
	So there is a sizable reinforcement force and the best units will not have been deployed in the first phase of the invasion.
	Europe, third point, is more united than since the post-9-11 combat deployments to Afghanistan a generation ago.
	Even historically neutral nations like Finland and the Swiss have taken the decision to arm Ukraine and sanction Moscow.
	However, A geopolitical realignment is occurring elsewhere.
	Saudi Arabia and the UAE have refused to side with the West and Ukraine.
	The intentions of India and Pakistan are unclear, and Israel is refusing to robustly denounce Putin's actions.
	The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, is exactly the type of leader now needed in Kiev.
	An obviously courageous man with the requisite media savvy and showmanship crucial to rallying his people and the international community.
	Whilst he is not corrupt personally, he has many around him who are.
	He was very smart to stay in the country and send the parliamentary speaker abroad because the speaker of the Ukrainian parliament could be the colonel of a Ukrainian government in exile, just as General de Gaulle was the head of the French government of exile just as General de Gaulle was the head of the French government of exile in World War II, should this
	Such a government in exile would be indispensable for providing those at home with hope and a focus for Western aid to the fighters back home.
	Lastly, in terms of escalation, and this is where it gets frightening, tactical nukes, the use of tactical nuclear weapons is not out of the question.
	Soviet-era nuclear weapons used to be under the control of the Communist Party.
	Not anymore.
	With the dissolution of the Communist Party, now the Russian army controls the nuclear weapons of the Federation, not the far stricter Politburo.
	If things go badly for Russia in theatre, the generals in Moscow may use short-range nukes in theatre.
	Note, the scenario for Russia's major Zapad military exercise in 2009 included a conflict over Polish involvement in Byelorussia which culminated in Russian troops on Polish soil and a nuclear strike on Warsaw.
	That is, Part of their military doctrine, and they have exercised to that effect.
	Our role.
	Ukraine needs arms from the West and munitions, especially tank busting systems that are simple, like the javelins that President Trump gave Kiev when he was commander in chief.
	Finally, and this is the big message from somebody I respect above all else when it comes to understanding Russia, Get ready for the long haul.
	Prepare for things that previously we deemed inconceivable, because they may just happen in real life.
	All right, guys.
	You got to hear it before anybody else.

	That type of information is just so necessary.
	People need to have it.
	How many more rumble chat comments do you want to hear that are disagreeable?
	Yeah, just go ahead.
	Okay.
	Let's see.
	Give that man a cookie!
	D Wild in the chat says, why the hatred for Russia?
	Since the dissolution of the USSR, NATO has no purpose.
	And also says... Why don't you go and stinking live there, dude?
	Go there for a year and get back to me about how cool Russia is, okay?
	He knows what he's talking about.
	He's an intel on a call of duty.
	Hey, buddy.
	You're on fire.
	He's a brigadier general.
	Because I'm pissed!
	Stupid people saying stupid things.
	Alright, give me comments.
	Um, let's see what else.
	Oh god.
	Same guy, D Wild, says Eastern Ukraine has been culturally Russian for 200 years.
	Oh, well, in that case, anybody can just go and take it, right?
	I mean, you know, people speak English in England, so I guess we should just invade, right?
	Is that how it works?
	How many ethnic Russians has Biden killed?
	I mean, has Biden?
	Has Putin killed?
	I mean, he just leveled... I mean, I just had this argument with a guy this morning.
	I said, dude, he just leveled a city that was completely ethnically Russian, right?
	And drove the entire population out.
	This is not liberating.
	This is not liberating anybody.
	Take South Africa.
	A caller who says, a commenter on Rumble Chat who says he was John the caller from earlier, he says the West is as much to blame here as Russia.
	Oh go to hell and get off my Rumble Channel please.
	So my favorite one was, if the Russians were so good in 2016, why don't they just tell everybody that Ukraine has invaded them?
	Right, they should believe it, right?
	If the Russians are so effective.
	Oh yeah, right, right, right.
	There were a couple of Facebook ads.
	Yeah!
	A couple of bots.
	That was Western Russia they walked into.
	I need to play the woman yesterday, Katrina Velash.
	Do you mind if I do?
	Actually, I'm going to do that with Travis.
	We have to prioritize, Jim.
	Okay.
	Prioritize.
	Do you feel prioritized?
	I do.
	Good.
	I didn't get much sleep last night.
	No.
	Same thing as last time you were on.
	Somebody's asked me, hey, I'm going to Vienna.
	Is it okay?
	I kept a long email.
	So yeah, fine.
	Yeah, it's fine.
	Then the thing with the power plant said, hey, you might want to wait.
	We'll figure out if this thing's going to blow up or not.
	That was scary.
	That was frickin' scary.
	Another commenter says, Putin observes Christianity and opposes gay marriage.
	A GUY WHO PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS FOR DECADES IS ON THE SIDE OF CHRISTIANS?
	PUT THE CRACKPIPE DOWN!
	Can somebody get me some defensive gear, please?
	Maybe like a helmet or a flak vest?
	Or at least one of those plastic walls so I'm protected from Gorka.
	I don't feel safe in here.
	Because the KGB always was on the side of Christians, right?
	Right?
	What's the code word?
	What's the... What's the word?
	Banana split.
	Banana split.
	What's the terrestrial word?
	Okay.
	Alright, we have Israel and food here.

	It's Friday.
	He doesn't have an apple pie, but we've got chocolate chip cookies!
	He is Jim Hansen, Vice President of the Heritage Foundation for All Matters, National Security and Foreign Policy.
	We've both recovered, kinda, from CPAC.
	But we are back in the swamp, and we've got to talk war in Europe.
	Jim, I'm going to launch in there.
	We had a comment on Rumble, but Putin is on the side of the Christian faith and hates homosexuals.
	Your response?
	One of those things is true.
	Which one is it?
	First of all, at CPAC, somebody came up to me and said, I hear you on the Gorka Show all the time, and I said, you know, it's completely unrehearsed when I go on.
	And they said, yes, that's obvious.
	Because it's so genuine.
	Yes?
	Look, I mean, come on.
	First of all, you know, Putin said he was, we just talked about this, that he was liberating Ukraine.
	They just plowed through a city of ethnic, over a quarter of a million ethnic Russians and destroyed their city.
	But that's his definition of saving Russians.
	But there's, you know, the notion that Putin is out for anybody other than Vladimir Putin.
	And he's anything other than... And this idea that we provoked it or the West provoked it because Ukraine's not allowed to join the EU or NATO.
	So here's how we provoked it, right?
	I think it really goes back to 2014, because Putin has always wanted to do this.
	But in 2014, it was very clear that Obama wanted to leave Europe and walk away.
	And then if you remember, think back, that was also when woke exploded across Europe.
	Nobody cared about defense anymore.
	Nobody cared about anything.
	And Putin decided that Europe was weak.
	And then America was leaving, and he marched, and then he stopped like a rock when he discovered that Trump would not roll over for him.
	And then he just waited for the day for Trump to leave, and then he just got back in the armored vehicle and the tank and started driving again.
	That's the history that will be written.
	And the other thing that we have to deal with, Jim, Putative conservative voices saying, not our war, thousands of miles away, irrelevant, doesn't matter to America.
	Your response?
	Yeah, so Putin is doing China's work for him.
	I don't think anybody disputes that China is the pacing threat in the world to America today.
	There's nothing the Chinese would like more than a weakened and divided and distracted Europe that they can move in and exploit, to have NATO dissolve, to have America alone and isolated in the world.
	That's the setup for the big takedown.
	So, you know, somehow that we don't care about this.
	People don't realize this is just the crisis before the next crisis.
	You know, those same friends of ours who say, well, we don't care about this, people.
	They were the first ones to stand up and say, you know, the Hungarians are great people.
	The Poles are great people.
	The Romanians are great people.
	They believe in family.
	They believe in religion.
	They're just like us.
	You know, we should embrace them.
	What's going on in those countries today?
	They're terrified of Vladimir Putin.
	So you are literally throwing them to the wolves.
	So people need to wake up.
	We are in a moment of history where it has changed.
	Everything is crystal clear to anybody that wants to look.
	Russia and China and Iran are not going to be happy until America is destroyed.
	And if we do not stand up and start to protect who we are, we will not survive A generation.
	I had an ethnic Russian on my show who's lived in the Ukraine who said the same, but he said it even more starkly.
	This is about our civilization, whether we stand up for the values of our civilization.
	That's an ethnic Russian from Ukraine.
	It's not even our values.
	It's whether we stand up for our own freedom, our own safety, and our own prosperity.
	All these things are at risk.
	You know, I think that The penultimate example of this is, you know, we said this, I mean, we talked about this at CPAC, you know, why is, okay, let's take them one at a time.
	Iran's a problem, China's a problem.
	Why is Russia a problem?
	They have a military and they sell a lot of energy.
	What's the solution?
	Super simple.
	We defend ourselves and we become energy independent.
	I thought we were.
	One word.
	Did you hear one word in the State of the Union address that said, we need to invest in adequate defense?
	We should get the allies to do their part.
	Actually, many of them have stepped up.
	Finally.
	But they did.
	And we need to become energy independent.
	Did you hear any of those words in that?
	No, not only that.
	Not only do they want to continue to buy Russian oil, they want to buy Iranian oil.
	Yeah.
	And they want to have the Russians broker the new Iran deal.
	Incredible.
	Because Taiwan, and we could talk about Taiwan, you know, Taiwan is strategically relevant to us.
	Let's talk about that in the next segment.
	But Russia, and now they want to blow up the Middle East because apparently having a war in Europe and having China on the march in the Indo-Pacific is not enough.
	Well, you are an expert on transatlantic issues.
	How much of a big deal is it that Finland, neutral Finland, is arming the Ukrainians and Switzerland, where neutrality is a religion, is actually part and parcel of the swinging sanctions against Moscow?
	This is historic, is it not?
	You know, it's even more big a deal because Sweden and Finland are not part of NATO and for the first time I think ever, actually the majority of Swins, the majority of Swins, the majority of people in those countries want to join the alliance.
	And this is in the face of a Russian invasion.
	And you know the takeaway here?
	NATO is a problem, not because of NATO enlargement.
	NATO is a problem because it is a block to Putin's expansion.
	And for the Finns and the Swedes, while another country is being bobbed into the dust, want to stand up and join the alliance, that just tells you how really important that alliance is.
	How people can compare Russia?
	And what it did under the Soviet Union with the Warsaw Pact with NATO.
	NATO is an empire.
	We don't gobble up the Baltics.
	The Baltics apply.
	They have to meet certain criteria and they're let in.
	Is this too sophisticated a thing to grasp?
	You know, I was only in the military for 25 years and I've only been associated with The military now and defense planning for national security for, I don't know, like 50 years now.
	Do you know how many offensive military plans I saw against Russia?
	Thank you.
	None.
	Zero.
	Zero.
	NATO has never written a plan to invade, to attack Russia.
	Ever.
	Ever.

	Heritage.org.
	We'll be back with Jim momentarily here on the Salem Radio Network with me, your host, Sebastian Gorka.
	or wherever you are, whatever you're doing, don't touch that dial.
	Thank you.
	What is it?
	I wish I could explain it.
	I've never quite understood it.
	I've never understood it.
	I mean, in the 1920s, I get it.
	After World War I, I could get the kind of isolationism.
	But after the Cold War, after 9-11, how can a grown person think that the rest of the world doesn't matter?
	Or that, you know, Putin is a strong man to be admired, I think.
	Yeah, that kind of makes me vomit.
	I don't know.
	I'm here for, you know... I don't know.
	But you know the thing is, and this is my thing, is look... Oh, do you have the DJT cup?
	People, uh... I don't care what you said yesterday.
	You cannot today...
	Look me in the eye and say, Putin is not the problem.
	Yeah, right.
	You know, any more than, I don't care what you said on December 6th, but you cannot come to work on December 8th, you know, 1941, and tell me that... Tojo and Hitler aren't the problem.
	Yeah, the problem is us.
	Right.
	But it is amusing to see the Democrats be so anti-Russian.
	I was texting back with, emailing back and forth with Kevin and I said, I think we're in a different place.
	I just think that, you know, like I say, you know, strategy is suitable, feasible, acceptable.
	I think what's acceptable to Americans today is not acceptable to Americans last week.
	So what I think people will sign up for to deal with China and Iran and Russia is, I think we're in a different place.
	And they're going to do an Iran deal.
	Is that Rice?
	Who's pushing that?
	It's not Blinken.
	Who is that?
	I don't know, but it's like, just put a gun to your head.
	How long do you think that thing's gonna go down?
	And again, it would have to be what they did before.
	It would have to be extra the Senate.
	It would have to be an agreement.
	They're not gonna push it through the Senate.
	I mean, there's no way they could get anything past the Senate.
	Right.
	Anything.
	Matter of fact, they'll probably get a resolution condemning the deal.
	And it'll probably pass.
	Well, it might not pass.
	It might pass.
	If it'll fail, it'll fail on the party line, but... Crazy.
	70 seconds.
	Did you say you sent something to me to print?
	Because I didn't see it in my email or text.
	No, I just read it off my phone.
	Oh, okay.
	All right, we've got about a minute.
	Car 15.
	I just love what, I kept quoting, Charlie Kirk who came on my show saying, it's not about policies anymore for us.
	It's not about second amendment or big tech or the border.
	It's about taking back, you know, the republic.
	It's about a big, the conservative movement has to understand this is, you know, And it was a much... It's much more serious, right?
	I mean, it's not just... It's not just fun anymore.
	Yeah, yeah, exactly.
	It's not just a place for people... It's like, we gotta do stuff here while we're here.
	Yeah, right.
	I thought it was great.
	Alright, 25 seconds.
	Standing by.
	One more time.
	It's Car 15 and Relief here.

	We are back with the Vice President of the Heritage Foundation.
	Go there.
	Join today.
	Heritage.org.
	he just said, I was only in the army for 25 years.
	He's only been doing this stuff for half a century.
	Jim, talk to us about the broader ramifications.
	Talk to us about Taiwan.
	Talk to us about how Asia feels about what is happening right now.
	So, you know, the number one message I have for all of us in the conservative movement is, you know, we say, well, we had national security conservatives and foreign policy conservatives and evangelicals, and we all voted for the same people.
	You know, we treated, literally treated, conservatism like a buffet table.
	You know, give me a serving of pro-life, a little side of the First Amendment.
	Throw a little low taxes on there right now.
	You know, the reality is we have to be serious about all these things, and we have to do our homework on all of them.
	And they all impact all of us.
	So for those of us who say, well, foreign policy, that's – and I think a lot of the silliness of things that we heard is people not doing – to be honest, I think just not doing your homework.
	So let's talk about Taiwan as a good example.
	So we understand why Ukraine is a bigger problem than just Ukraine because literally it's Russia destabilizing Europe and creating a crisis for the United States because China will move in and essentially we're going to be pushed out and isolated.
	Taiwan matters for lots of reasons, but actually the most important is where it is.
	It is part of something called the First Island Chain.
	And for those of you who study World War II, if you control the First Island Chain, basically you control all the movement up and down the Pacific.
	You own Asia.
	And think of islands like unsinkable aircraft carriers.
	Yes.
	Way cheaper.
	Because they sit there, you put planes up.
	And they're green.
	Right, exactly.
	So if the Chinese own Taiwan, forget about Japan and South Korea.
	They're literally cut off.
	And then the second island chain, which, you know, my book, Brutal War, talks about Papua New Guinea.
	Worst place on earth to fly to war.
	But if you control the second island chain, then basically you control transit across the Pacific.
	So if you control the first and second island chains, so think like midway World War II.
	You've got the crossroads.
	Then literally, then the Pacific Ocean is your lake.
	That's what the Chinese are doing, and that's why they have to be stopped at Taiwan.
	We both were at CPAC.
	It was superb.
	If you haven't seen it, you've got to listen to President Trump's speech.
	Here's 20 seconds that really put the last three weeks into historic context.
	Take a look.
	Russia invaded Georgia.
	Under Obama, Russia took Crimea.
	Under Biden, Russia invaded Ukraine.
	I stand as the only president of the 21st century on whose watch Russia did not invade another country.
	Isn't that a remarkable observation?
	Well, it's true.
	You know, there was a lot of criticism, and perhaps rightly so, if you remember the first press conference that he had with Putin.
	But that was the Trump who basically did that with everybody, which is, look, I am perfectly willing to give you an off-ramp if you respect my equities.
	But he made very clear that underneath that, just like with Xi in Mar-a-Lago, where he had a really nice moment, then he said, oh yeah, by the way, I just launched a cruise missile in Syria.
	There was an iron behind that.
	Obama and these other guys, all they've ever done is try to buy these guys off and get crushed in the back.
	So we talked about this before, which is really, really true.
	Because remember, it was Trump that was the stooge of the Russians.
	And the 2016 election, the Russians just They bought it.
	They gave us mind control and they just made us elect Donald Trump.
	Well, you know, if that's true and the Russians were all powerful with disinformation and everything else, why wouldn't they just tell us all that Ukraine invaded Russia?
	And we would believe that.
	If they're that good at desinformatia.
	And they're not, really.
	I mean, they do a lot of it.
	And most of it is really not very effective.
	We've got 30 seconds left.
	I want to know, putting you on the spot, is Heritage doing anything really cool about the situation?
	Are you going to have an event?
	Are you planning some briefings?
	You must be doing something.
	You know, the coolest... I mean, we do a lot of stuff every day, but the coolest thing we did... There's a Ukrainian flag.
	that's flying over the Heritage Foundation.
	Wow.
	Right next to the American flag.
	Was that Kevin's idea?
	Was that your idea?
	Whose idea was that?
	Jen?
	Was that you, Jen?
	No, no, no.
	It wasn't my idea, but it was actually, it was just somebody down in the organization that thought of this, but we all come to work every day And I know it doesn't mean anything.
	I know it's not going to save a life.
	It's not going to save a kid.
	It's not going to stop a bullet.
	But it's important.
	But when we look up, we know who we are.
	And all you have to do is look up and see those two flags flying together.
	That's beautiful.

	I carry a 9mm car at kahr.com.
	That's kahr.com.
	I want to play this cut every single day.
	This was the lady that we shared the audio clip with you yesterday.
	One of the refugees in Ukraine listened to Katrina's story and her advice to you.
	When you left, what was it like leaving?
	It was like pretty much giving your soul to God every second because our train stopped in the middle of Kiev and they were, you know, they were shooting and we heard bombs flying all over and planes and I thought this particular moment I can die and I just prayed and I said Goodbye, everyone.
	And I understood that for four hours in a completely dark train, we can be dead in any second.
	So that was pretty much very, very... For me, especially, it was very stressful.
	I want people to know that we have been killed by the country that wanted to take over.
	take Ukraine over and they wanted to kill our people for being Patriotic I want people to know that this is true because I saw it personally and I do know Person who has been shot by Russians because he didn't give up with a flag Because they came to his house.
	He lived right by they came to his house and they shoot him So I want people to know that the truth is there anything else you want to say?
	When you see a clear sky cherish that sky Cherish every moment of your life.
	I can summarize what's happening in Europe in one sentence.
	The Ukrainians want to be free.
	And if your freedom matters to you, you should want them to be free as well.
	It's Friday.
	It's Second Amendment Friday.
	Our special guest today, back on America First, is Travis White of the Firearms Regulatory Accountability Coalition.
	Travis, welcome back to America First.
	Thanks, Sebastian.
	I appreciate you having me back on and giving this opportunity to once again talk to the American public.
	All right.
	Well, everybody has to check out your organization that is fighting the capricious, capricious demands and behavior of organizations like the ATF.
	That's fracaction.org.
	It's hard to keep a track, keep an eye on These issues, when we have international crises, when we have gas at, you know, five dollars a gallon in California, when we've got double-digit inflation.
	Can you just give us an update, please, Travis, on what the latest absurd actions are, how the rights of manufacturers, of retailers, of just firearms users are being abused.
	We've been following the forced trigger reset actions.
	We've been following the the the brace the threat against braces What should our millions of listeners across the nation know about the latest developments?
	Sure You know on there's really two main things here in the past week that I'll just give you as an example on the domestic front we're seeing a increase the substantially increased use of The sort of secret rules and secretive guidance documents by ATF to retroactively ban firearms and firearms technology.
	You mentioned the force reset trigger.
	It's an example of that sort of secretive guidance.
	Let me just explain for those who aren't familiar.
	This is a completely legal device that drops into an AR-15 lower that is retroactively being deemed to be a machine gun without any legislation being passed or any executive orders even.
	Correct and we have an even more egregious example that the news started breaking on that in the last couple days and that is the ATF's new position on these solvent traps and these solvent trap kits.
	Stories are emerging that ATF is just across the board denying Form 1, your application to make and register a new suppressor.
	The Form 1 applications are being arbitrarily denied with the supposed justification that the ATF doesn't like these sort of Devices or kits and they're going so far as the reports are emerging to look backwards in time at people that have already had approved applications have already Had the registration approved have already paid the tax have already submitted to the background check and have already made the item To potentially go in and deregister them.
	I mean that that really amounts to outright confiscation on the international front We actually sat down, me and my team, we went and sat down with the ranking member of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee last week and we took a look at ATF's 2014 ruling that has come back sort of to the forefront with the Ukraine crisis, that's 2014-1 is the ruling, and it applies this unnecessary red tape
	To machine gun transfers between licensed industry members, specifically here talk about defense contractors and their ability to transfer amongst themselves.
	These machine gun machine gun subcomponents as a, you know, it gets incorporated in the bigger weapons platforms that are ultimately destined for our foreign allies to assist them in, you know, defending themselves.
	Well, I want to thank you for doing what you do.
	Please check out the organization FRAC, F-R-A-C, fracaction.org.
	It is the Firearms Regulatory Accountability Coalition.
	Our rights are under threat more than they have ever been, and we need organizations like this one to keep an eye on what the ATF is doing, which is against the Bill of Rights and the Second Amendment.
	God bless you!
	Travis and your colleagues.

	Mike's back on.
	Want another Rumble comment?
	Yeah.
	From SoulWarrior who says, Zolenski is not a hero and I will not consider him one just because the media tells me I should.
	Well then you're putts.
	And you shouldn't watch this show.
	Yeah.
	Goodbye.
	Titles real quick.
	Airfollow and White.
	Monologue.
	It was Callers in 2A.
	When did I do my answers?
	Didn't I do 2A?
	I didn't do 2A.
	Yeah, you did that in 2A.
	We did the monologue already.
	1A.
	No, but I... No, you did that in 2A.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	In between the callers, you did six things or whatever.
	You took a call... I took a call and then went straight to what's happening in Ukraine.
	Yeah, two calls.
	Cut that call off.
	Just cut the calls off.
	And then a call after.
	Alright, 20 seconds.
	Standby... Ukraine, colon, strategic assessment.
	That's a 2A.
	Portions of America First are brought to you by Food for the Poor.
	We didn't even play Cut One, did we?
	Joe Biden's virus.
	We didn't play that.
	Did we play his virus?
	Viral.
	His viral virus.
	This is Joe Biden.
	He's your president, allegedly.
	Cut One.
	I just had a chance to visit and have a viral tour of both the Siemens facilities.
	A viral tour of the Siemens facilities.
	I bet you did.
	Here's somebody who doesn't need to get injected to give speeches.
	He may not be Mr. G's favorite, but this is rather good.
	Ron DeSantis, cut eight.
	Think about how all of a sudden the guidance has changed right before the State of the Union address.
	Is that, is that how science works?
	Does the science change based on polling data?
	Does the science change because you have a midterm election coming up?
	I mean, no.
	So we see that, and it just causes people to lose confidence.
	I know you're not a big fan, Mr. G, but that was pretty good, wasn't it?
	Wasn't Governor DeSantis pretty good there?
	No, he's getting better.
	That is high praise from Mr. G. He's getting better.
	That's high praise.
	But here's a reminder, as John noted earlier on, that Joe Biden didn't need to be injected with whatever they inject him with.
	Because when he was even more of a bigot, is he more of a bigot now or when he was doing high-tech lynchings?
	Because, you know, recently he did say gems like this one.
	You have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, and you ain't black.
	Let's go back to 2005, when a black judge was potentially nominated to the Supreme Court.
	Her name was Janice Rogers Brown.
	But, well, she's black and she's a conservative, so she's got to be filibustered because Joe Biden can quote Latin phrases that are irrelevant.
	But compare this to Sleepy Creepy today.
	For example, if he set up Edith Jones, I can assure you that would be a very, very, very difficult fight, and she probably would be full of us.
	What about Janice Rogers-Brown, someone else?
	Excuse me, I'm not... By the way, I misspoke.
	I misspoke.
	Janice Rogers-Brown is what I meant to say.
	Oh, okay.
	I misspoke.
	But wasn't she just confirmed, though?
	How do you invoke the Extraordinary Circumstances Clause of the Agreement of the Gang of Fourteen for somebody who's just been confirmed?
	Because the circuit court of a judge is bound by stare decisis.
	They don't get to make new law.
	They have to abide by the, for example... So what you're saying is the Supreme Court's different than... Different ballgame.
	Totally different ballgame.
	Eric!
	Let's get you to chime in.
	Tude Biden's there, right?
	Uh, yeah, it's almost like he's a completely different person.
	Like, he at least, back then, he at least looked somewhat normal and sounded somewhat normal.
	He did, he could actually, I mean, he still gaffed.
	I mean, he still couldn't, you know, know which circuit judge he was talking about, and he forgot which one was the black one that he had to block with a filibuster, but then he corrected himself, and he did look mildly human back then.
	What did he get to be?
	Oh yes, sorry, I forgot.
	81 million, of course.
	Next up we have former first-tier operator, the founder of the Warrior Poet Society, with his analysis about the events in Ukraine and why they matter to us.
	John Lowell here on America First with me, Sebastian Gorka.
	America First with me, Sebastian Gorka.
	America First with me, Sebastian Gorka. Sebastian Gorka.
	Welcome, dear friends, to America First one-on-one with a very special guest who can give a unique perspective on the events, the sad, the tragic events occurring in Europe right now.
	He is the founder of a superb organization, the Warrior Poet Society and Network, and he's been on the show before.
	John Lovell, welcome back to America First.
	Always a pleasure.
	Good to see you, my friend.
	No, no, I want to talk to John Lovell, not his younger beardless brother.
	Who is this imposter?
	How dare you come on my show pretending to be a great man!
	I know, I know.
	I shaved the beard, it's throwing everybody off, and no one will stop harassing me.
	But the missus likes it, and so there's some wisdom there too, guys.
	Happy wife, happy life.
	Alright, I know his bride, a sagacious individual, the power behind the throne.
	She made a decision and like a good soldier he obeyed.
	John, for those who haven't heard of you before, haven't seen our prior interviews here on the Salem Radio Network, will you just tell a little bit about yourself and what you did prior to establishing the Warrior Poet Society?
	Sure, so I was in Special Operations, did some time there, did quite a few tours overseas.
	I was in business for a while.
	I went back, got a degree.
	I was a foreign Christian missionary for a number of years, so done quite a bit already.
	And then we ran and founded the Warrior Poet Society.
	Uh, which is what we're doing now.
	And, uh, it's going good.
	All right.
	Uh, I wanted you to describe why you created the Warrior Post Society, but as a former operator, a former special operations, uh, actual, you know, frontline kind of guy, will you give us an unvarnished, we haven't rehearsed any of this.
	We don't.
	We don't approve of and we don't send out talking points with our guests.
	We have frank, real conversations.
	We are just over two weeks into this war.
	Sights we never thought we'd see again, that we thought were our parents' or our grandparents' generation of tanks on high streets, civilian buildings being shelled.
	What is John Lovell, former practitioner, national security, uniform-wearing practitioner, what are your first responses to what we are witnessing in Ukraine?
	I'm just not nearly as surprised as those who would just kind of saunter through life imagining that we truly are going to grasp that ever elusive utopian ideal.
	And it doesn't mean we shouldn't strive for better in utopia, but I'm just saying under our skin, mankind's evil And people want to conquer.
	Tyrants are going to invade and do terrible things.
	And I don't think we'll ever outgrow it.
	I think as long as people are on this earth, they're going to seek to destroy and to dominate, to own, to enslave other individuals.
	And so it's the job of good people, freedom fighters, warrior poets, to be able to stand in the gap and meet violent men with more violence, but for the greater good.
	And so I'm not surprised by this at all.
	Of course we're going to keep doing war.
	And guess what?
	This isn't going to be the last one.
	We're not going to figure it out because depravity is still ever much with us.
	Yeah, because man is fallen, evil is real, it exists in the heart of men, and war is part of human history and will not be eradicated because bad men exist.
	It's WarriorPoetSociety.us.
	You're a trainer today.
	I can't wait for when I join you at a range for my session with you.
	Tell us why you created the Warrior Poet Society, John Lovell.
	Great, so we have this great chasm between two different types of individuals.
	Now we see the world.
	One is the warrior, and the warrior, that's my old hat.
	I had these special operations buddies, and we're doing combat tours and stuff like that.
	So I would see my brothers come home being successful at war only to fail at life.
	And to do life well and to be able to defend the innocent well, it takes a special kind of man, somebody who could be successful in both worlds.
	And that's not this just fake warmongering bravado that a lot of warriors will put on of like, let's be lovers of truth and lovers of our spouses and be good and emotionally present fathers.
	And that's what the warrior poet does.
	They're successful in violence and successful in times of peace.
	But correct me if I'm wrong, your mission, it may have started off to assist warriors to live back home when they're not deployed, not in uniform.
	But your mission also speaks to those who've never worn a uniform, have never been part of a Taiwan, you know, alpha detachment or what have you.
	You are speaking to engendering The warrior scholar, the warrior poet ethos in those who've never been to a war zone, correct?
	Goodman, no matter what your background or how high speed or low speed you are, all of us have a place To be able to protect the innocent.
	That could just start with you and your family, and I don't care.
	You're a little out of shape, and you never joined some military or police unit or something like that.
	I'm like, no, but you want to do some training, make yourself a little harder to kill, and be able to protect anyone at your level.
	I'm a huge fan of that.
	Love you.
	Thank you for being part of our brotherhood's sacred protectors.
	So, yeah.
	Yeah, and part of that, I think, the last time we met was at the SHOT Show.
	This all fits organically with the Second Amendment, knowing how to use force when force is necessary, correct?
	Even as a civilian.
	Absolutely.
	I think we have, even in our Constitution, our First Amendment, which was packed full of all the good freedoms.
	And then the Second Amendment, right to bear arms, was in case the first didn't go so hot.
	It's the only way you can guarantee the first rights is to be able to defend it with arms.
	And so we can't abdicate our responsibility as men, as protectors.
	We need to be able to defend on whatever scale.
	So yeah.
	When you see the images of the last few days of the civilians, beauty queens, former boxers, man on the street being handed automatic weapons and ammunition, I know it's, you know, thousands of miles away, but could this be a wake-up call for the kinds of things that you've been preaching for years?
	You couldn't ask for a more perfect picture of why you can't possibly disarm your citizenry.
	This happened back in World War II when England was about to just get steamrolled by the Third Reich.
	They had no weapons.
	They disarmed.
	And they had to buy a bunch of used, awful guns from the United States like third hand because they had to scramble.
	Because all of the sudden they had to wake up to the idea of like, hey, it's a violent world and only good men who have mastered violence are able to defend it.
	And so, similarly, anybody tuning in, don't you dare ever, ever, ever give up your guns to a government that they're meant to protect you from if everything goes sideways.
	Don't give them up.
	The Ukrainians wish that they had never given up their guns before.
	And what you are witnessing here, you have been increasingly outspoken.
	You did an amazing video on why now is the time to speak out.
	What is your comment on what we are witnessing here in America?
	We just had the State of the Union, the fact that I was on British media a lot and the hosts were saying, where is your president?
	Our Prime Minister didn't sleep last night when the war started and we're 18 hours into this.
	He's an hour late for his press conference.
	America as a player in all of this, John, are you satisfied?
	Well, I'd be easier on Biden.
	He had perfectly good excuses.
	I think he had an ice cream run.
	He had to get some ice cream.
	Chocolate, chocolate chip.
	No, no, no.
	They screwed up his flavor, Sebastian.
	It's even worse than you can imagine.
	Oh my gosh.
	His pet sitter fell through and he needed to spend some time ... Sorry.
	It's all just a joke.
	I'm so embarrassed.
	of our executive office.
	On a world stage, it's not just the travesty that it's embarrassing.
	It's that there will be real, true consequences when violent men sense weakness.
	It's like sharks circling.
	They will attack, and they'll take more and more ground.
	They'll get whatever they can get away with.
	We can't afford weak leadership, and the toll will be paid for in innocent lives, whether that's our own, eventually years down the road, or it's definitely already happening in Europe, and that's the consequence of a weak foreign policy.
	Yeah, this is the thing that stuns me, and I'm so delighted to know you as a fellow American, to be associated with what you are doing, because it's not just about the tightest shot groups on Range 37, or the coolest kit, or the most war-y individual.
	It's a very simple lesson.
	Bad guys do bad stuff and the only people are gonna stop them are good guys.
	Whether you're on the playground age 8 and the bully comes along or whether it's a nuclear-tipped killer and thug like Vladimir Putin and how this isn't understood by anybody with a double-digit or higher IQ is truly mind-bending.
	It's the WarriorPoetSociety.us founded, led by John Lovell.
	I'm Sebastian Gorka.

	Send the left a message today.
	John, let's go back a little bit.
	Let's go up in the a little bit of more strategic view.
	You're talking about being a warrior.
	You're talking about protecting the innocent.
	Let's be more basic, because I think this is where the rot begins.
	With political correctness, identity politics, the aggressive, perverse, transgender agenda.
	We've lost sight of not what a warrior is, But what a man is, and what the content of that word man is, and this isn't an accident, this is a diabolical attempt to undermine objective truth.
	Man, woman, and their roles.
	Will you talk to us what John Lovell's definition, not just for warriors is, but for what a man must be if he is a true man?
	Sure.
	So if we're to define what a man is, you have to first look of like, well, who in the world made man?
	That's where we're really endued by value and purpose.
	And I have to ultimately go there epistemologically of like, hey, God made man and God decides what man is for.
	And out of the Bible, I've extracted that a man is meant to be a loving protector, a loving provider, or meant to flourish our family and protect our family.
	And we have very specific roles that we're supposed to be called to.
	But a protector, provider, that's at least two real easy things that I should say.
	a man is meant to do.
	Now, in light of all the just woke ideology, more and more of I like giving benefit of the doubt and hearing out arguments.
	And I realize I have not got the corner on all truth.
	And it's not that I see clearly and everyone else is more opaque.
	It's just that as I look at a lot of what the values of the radical left are doing, which is basically hijacked all of our institutions of power.
	It doesn't look just like a change of opinion.
	It looks like a war against people like me on what is considered right and wrong.
	It's a moral war, and they think I am absolutely evil, and guess what, I think all of their Values are evil, too, of like we're both calling each other really, really evil.
	And so it's not even just about having an open conversation.
	It's like, I think you're diabolical.
	I think you guys all have a genocide against the unborn.
	You're killing little babies in mass and you're caring about all the wrong things.
	And so hard for me to give too much benefit of the doubt and goodwill when you're doing such flagrant atrocities such as that one.
	Yeah, I think we can't shy away from this.
	As somebody who's, you know, lived the life of a Christian missionary, you suffuse your warrior spirit with your faith, which is clearly very, very strong.
	And what we're talking about is truly diabolical things.
	When you pervert The concept of good and bad, of truth, when you say there is no truth, when you say everything is a, quote, lived experience and the perspective of the individual is all that matters.
	Well, in that case, anything is justified, because what is the difference between Hitler's perspective of persecution or Putin's perspective?
	If it's just a function of where you sit, then there is no truth.
	So talk to us about what your
	Evolution in the last year under COVID and how you clearly from your video products have come to a turning point that that road to Damascus where you said okay it's not just about you know guns like we've got the images from the you know when we went to the SHOT Show it's not just about the cool training you do with with your clients across the nation there's the Warrior Poet team with me at at the SHOT Show recently but it's also about
	Speaking the truth publicly and never ever censoring yourself.
	So speak to us about your recent journey journey, John.
	Sure.
	So really, I felt like I was bullied into speaking out because I had a very specific and narrower scope.
	I wanted to help folks be more well-rounded as It's a good thing to be harder to kill.
	providers and that's it.
	I wanted to provide good training so you'd be harder to kill so that, you know, forces of good.
	And that's a good thing to be harder to kill.
	It's a very good thing.
	I think so.
	And it's not like I'm looking for a fight.
	I'm all about, you know, like healthy relationships and loving others.
	It's sacrificial protection and service.
	And that's kind of my big deal.
	And so I'm making all these videos on YouTube.
	Our YouTube channel is really grown and we do a lot there and also on our streaming service network.
	But I'm providing that kind of content.
	But what happened is politics gobbled everything up.
	And so all of a sudden, me, who I'm not called to politics, I hate politicians.
	I despise politics in general.
	But politics has gobbled everything up.
	So, So much to say there's really no speech that I can use that isn't going to trigger some left-wing snowflake at a university who's never stepped outside the United States and seen what the world is actually like.
	Yeah, I mean, you can't talk about the weather anymore for fear somebody's going to be triggered by climate change issues.
	Something as simple as aborting a baby, you know, you have like logically that, that is a biological and it's a moral issue, but somehow it became a political issue.
	Everything is now a political issue.
	And so I backed into a corner and I realized, hey, there's a war against guns in general.
	If you outlaw guns, not only are we going to be unsafe, I am out of a job.
	The worst thing is ultimately people will die because of that.
	You disarm the good guys, that leaves only the bad guys with guns, practically, because they don't listen to gun control stuff.
	They're going to keep their stuff, and you're going to lose yours, which means that means more innocent people killed.
	But I've been bullied into a corner, I'm sick of it, and I see that freedom is being encroached on, in which case, now I cannot afford to be narrow in scope.
	No one can afford to be apathetic, because we have to engage in the war of ideas right now, because these pernicious ideas will be the end of all of us.
	Yeah, but let's be clear.
	He uses the phrase, he felt bullied into taking a political stance.
	I term it a little bit differently.
	They, and I mean they, I mean the left, the radicals, have made everything political.
	When somebody says to me, and I've got buddies, we have a Second Amendment segment every Friday, and I've had great YouTube content providers say, hey, I'll come on your show and I'll talk about guns, but I'm not going to do politics.
	Wake up!
	It's all political whether you're allowed to not wear a mask in school as a child or whether you're allowed to say the truth has become political so it's time for all good Americans to wake up because as somebody once said for evil to triumph all that has to occur is that good men do nothing.
	John, you never fail to talk about your faith.
	It clearly informs everything you do.
	And it has to be.
	If you're saying that, you know, our job as men is to protect the innocent, that's because we believe in the message of our Creator.
	It's why Jesus said, you know, come unto me the little children, protect the orphans and the widows first.
	That is our priority.
	Are you prepared?
	Again, not having rehearsed any of this, I'm a Catholic and I'm just really disgusted with my church in the last two years.
	You know, the kneeling at the altar of Fauci, with the shutting down the churches, then the social distancing and the masks.
	Will you talk to us from your perspective of how we need renewal and we need bravery, we need courage in the Christian houses of worship across our civilization?
	Sure.
	So my wife and I recently moved.
	We brought our kids with us.
	I phrase that weird.
	We moved.
	And so we were church shopping.
	We went to a bunch of different churches, scouted them out online because that's going to be our new family that we commit to for kind of better or worse.
	It's like, you know, it's like any family, a church family's got some great stuff.
	It's got some, I don't like that as much, but you kind of commit.
	And so we were doing our due diligence.
	However, one church that, you know, we generally just kind of, we liked right off the bat, they were wearing masks and this is way into COVID now.
	And we're in the South, and so most of the businesses around, and almost everywhere we're going, people aren't really masking much anymore.
	But this church did.
	And I don't judge them for it.
	It was a signal to me that we have a whole bunch of data suggesting that, hey, if you're in these age groups, And you are not obese and you don't have these prior medical conditions.
	You're like a 0% statistical chance of dying from COVID.
	I'm not talking about outliers.
	People are talking about me generally.
	I have a 0% chance.
	And so I've been unmasked for everything.
	I wore a mask for like The first month or so when all this was going on, because I was concerned.
	I'm kind of like, oh, this looks bad.
	And then when reality didn't match propaganda, I started getting suspicious.
	And then we all just kind of went back to work after about two months of the covid launch.
	And I've lived pretty normally for two years.
	But this church specifically, they were masked.
	And I need to follow strong, courageous and reasonable male leadership.
	And so that was the last time we went.
	My wife really liked the church.
	And I'm like, I'm sorry, baby, I got to follow strong, Reasonable and courageous men.
	I have to.
	I can't be satisfied with less, but it was... Did you find a decent church that wasn't afraid?
	I did, and we're loving it.
	We're loving it.
	I have my first small group through that church tonight that I'm leading with somebody else, so we're getting plugged in and we're pumped, but I was upset that we had to go to quite a few churches to find some of them.
	That was one instance where I just saw I mean, I know what happened.
	Somebody complained and they felt like it was the loving thing to do.
	And I get that.
	I don't want to go there necessarily.
	I don't want to hash all that out.
	Let's just say I agree to disagree because I think courage and rationality, those are key virtues.
	Isn't courage the virtue that makes all the other virtues possible?
	You can't have other virtues if you don't have courage.
	Yeah, and so C.S.
	Lewis, one of my great heroes, 20th century philosopher, would point out courage is not a virtue at all.
	Courage is the testing point of every virtue at its breaking point.
	So if you value honesty as a virtue, you know, but you realize telling the truth will cost you your job or something else, it'll take courage to overcome that and stay honest.
	So courage is the thing that makes all virtues even possible.
	So if you're not brave, you can't possibly be a good person.
	You're an evil person if you're not brave.
	He's used the word epistemology on my show.
	He's going to drop some ontological truth bombs next.
	He's John Lovell.
	It is the Warrior Poet Society.
	We're going to talk a little bit about what they do, the kinds of information they provide, the kinds of training he provides.
	But yes, C.S.
	Lewis.
	Guys, if you're looking for something good to read, That will reinvigorate you, that will give you a sense of courage.
	It doesn't have to be theological.
	He's got fascinating things that are funny, like the screw tape letters with a devil in training, a demon in training, writing letters to his uncle on how to tempt a human sinner, to amazing science fiction novels such as The Hidden Strength.
	A nice recommendation from our very special guest here on America First 101, John Lovell.
	This is the Salem Radio Network.
	I'm Sebastian Gorka, former strategist to President Trump, and we are coming to you from the ReliefFactor.com studios.

	I was pain-free and I'm still pain-free more than three years later.
	But it's not just me.
	It's people like Debran from Massachusetts.
	This is Debran's story.
	I just started taking Relief Factor four days ago.
	My hip pain is gone.

	John, I don't think I do enough of this when you come on the show.
	You're so very, very gracious, allowing us to have so much of your time.
	Will you just do a little infomercial on what you do personally, the training you provide in everything that Warrior Poet Society does, from content to the coolest little carry knives out there.
	So just use this to tell the world what you're doing, John.
	Sure, we have all kinds of different ways that folks who want to be plugged in with us, who want to get training from us, or just want to be part of what we're doing and support us, all kinds of ways.
	One thing is tune into our YouTube stuff.
	I don't know how long YouTube's going to allow us to stay there.
	That is the question.
	They just censor us like crazy and shadow ban and all that stuff.
	But we're on YouTube and all the social media places of Facebook and Instagram while they're doing it.
	But we're also in the more conservative places like Rumble and what some other, Getter.
	Getter, Truth Social.
	Are you on Truth Social?
	If I'm not, I'm about to be.
	Somebody else actually subscribes me and stuff, so probably.
	Did you hear that?
	He's so big, he says somebody else subscribes me.
	Don't you know who I am?
	If you need a hand, the waiting list is long, but I can help you out, Johnny, if you want to get on Truth Social.
	He's terrible, folks.
	He's terrible.
	He trolls me like this all the time.
	I'm supposed to be doing my infomercial thing here, and he hijacks it.
	I'm trying to humanize you.
	I'm trying to humanize you, man.
	Yeah, yeah.
	All right, very good.
	So we also do training classes, and so you can go to our website, warriorpostsociety.us slash training.
	Check it out and train with us in person.
	Myself or one of our trainers, we also have those classes online.
	If you're not able to make it in person, you can go to our watchwpsn.com, watchwpsn.com.
	We have an app where all of our classes and a whole bunch of other trainers Their classes and then we have binge worthy shows and news and all kinds of cool stuff on our Downloadable app.
	And so you could do that.
	We also have a full e-commerce site filled with just like body armor.
	This is how cool John is.
	I wanted to get in, you know, to go on a training course.
	I wanted to get a new belt for my gear, for my guns.
	And I just texted him like a week ago.
	What's the best battle belt?
	Can you recommend one?
	Oh, and actually he sent me a link to his website.
	Okay.
	He didn't say go to these people.
	It was a link on his website.
	That's how cool this guy is.
	And on top of that, let's give a shout out.
	To your friends, we saw them at SHOT Show, the shadow systems gun company that creates a Glock.
	You mean these guys?
	Those guys!
	That you got me one of those weapons from Shadow Systems that is like a beautiful customized robot Glock but it's out of the box.
	Superb.
	Just met the guys at Shotchko.
	They've got a new subcompact one.
	I can't wait for that one.
	Let's give them a shout out.
	And all of that stuff, the guns, they can get at Sportsman's Guide.
	Is that right, John?
	It's sportsman's guide and just fish around their website and you'll see warrior poet thing drop down out of their pancake menu and you can get that use code war poet will be able to help you out uh at checkout as well but it is amazing how much gun you get for uh for the value of like you you just can't beat it i've had people try and be like all right i want these kind of things and as soon as you build it yourself of like nope you're way over what it would cost you so if you like a little bit of Extra hot sauce, you know, for your firearm.
	This thing is awesome.
	Out of the box, guys.
	Out of the box.
	Shadow Systems.
	War Poet is the code go-to sportsman's guide.
	And also, you give employment to people of diminutive stature.
	Don't you have a warrior dwarf on your employ?
	It's Battle Gnome.
	He gets very upset.
	Battle Gnome!
	Sorry, not politically correct to say a warrior dwarf.
	It is Battle Gnome is the correct nomenclature.
	That's right.
	Battle Gnome.
	Y'all posted a picture.
	You can tell because he's the person that... Let's put that picture back up to Eric.
	Tell us a little bit about Battle Gnome because he's got a good sense of humor for a man of small stature.
	Yeah, well, what he makes up for with height, he makes up with width.
	I'm like, he is just a Mack truck of like, don't make him angry.
	But that's our training director.
	He's doing most of our tactical pistol and rifle classes.
	We have other instructors that aren't in that picture that's flashed up right there.
	We've got Yoshka Drago, aka Josh, and he does room clearing classes and some small unit stuff.
	And he's doing more and more.
	He does an everyday carry combatives thing where people are learning how to do Up close, entangled gun and knife fighting, so it's very different from a range, but it's probably far more important because it's how fights really go, not how you would imagine them on a flat range against an IPSC target.
	Right, it's not like Keanu Reeves in a movie, right?
	Real life fighting is dirty, it's quick, and it doesn't have a lot of rules.
	That's right.
	So, I loved the John Wick movies.
	Sure, they're great.
	Keanu Reeves has my respect because he's training real moves.
	I could tell, I see fingerprints of competitive shooters all over him, much more than tacticians.
	Because I'm like, he's solving problems.
	You can see him at the range.
	There are amazing videos of him, you know, at the Taran tactical range.
	But it's a range.
	It's, you know, it's speed above everything else.
	But it's impressive because he's an actor who actually knows how to handle and do a speed reload.
	But you're talking about stuff that's far more realistic, correct?
	Yeah, but the point is, is to make a real movie with real moves.
	And they did that.
	There's just all kinds of fiction that I see.
	But I still really like the movies, and I really like John Wick, so I don't want to throw stones at it, because I'm just trying to enjoy a movie like everyone else.
	But yeah, if you had put me in charge of killing the bad guy, the movie would have been three minutes long and very boring.
	Yeah, that's not worth it for $14.
	But it would have been realistic.
	But hey, and by the way, Keanu Reeves is just a super cool guy.
	I mean, there are no reports of him being an A.S.S.
	as most Hollywood actors are.
	In fact, quite the opposite of giving away his fees, helping people out.
	And also, he has had a very, very, very tough life.
	If you look at his early life, his family life.
	A very, very challenging experience.
	But today he's one of the decent guys in Hollywood.
	But we need our own Hollywood.
	We need our own content providers who are talking about the truth, what it means to be a man, what it means to be a warrior, what it means to stand up and protect the innocent.
	And that's exactly what John and his colleagues are doing.
	You can watch some of the interviews I've done for him on strategic matters at WatchWPSN.com.
	That's of course Warrior Poet Society Network.
	That's Watch WPSN.com.
	Lots of amazing content.

	John, we have spoken so much about the need to speak the truth, to get quote-unquote political because they've politicized everything.
	Can I just test something with you?
	I've come to a conclusion.
	Whether you hate Donald Trump, whether you hate MAGA, whether you hate men cannot be women, whatever it is, I found one commonality between all of these people and it kind of just dawned on me about a month ago.
	They all hate America.
	All the crazies, the leftists, they hate the thing that we love.
	Isn't this the easiest way to describe the challenge we have?
	Yeah, I think more can be said about the radical left by what they hate versus what they really love.
	It's a reactionary ideology.
	It's deconstructionistic.
	It's just the absolute, the perfect picture of postmodernism, that they're against I mean, families, America, God, tradition, masculinity, femininity, they're just against, you know, pre-born babies.
	You name it, they're against it and they hate it.
	Whatever I love, they seem to hate.
	And so, yeah, I think they are anti-American.
	Whoa to us for giving away America to them.
	They have literally got a institutional power checkmate against us right now.
	We got to get them back.
	Yeah, it's up to us.
	It's up to every single one of our millions of listeners.
	Guys, you have a role to play.
	I don't care where you live.
	I don't care how old you are.
	I don't care what you've done in the past.
	You have a role to play in taking back our Republic.
	John, we're out of time.
	Thank you for taking so much of your time to talk to our listeners across the country.
	What is your final message to the brave people, men and women of Ukraine right now who are battling for their liberty?
	Man, I don't know.
	It's so hard for me to even speak to that because I don't even notice.
	I don't know what's real.
	I don't know what's propagandized.
	I don't like when Russia or a bigger nation just all of a sudden rolls across a border and starts killing people.
	Take courage.
	Stand for what's right.
	Defend your families.
	Hunker down.
	Hang in there.
	I wish we could do more to help.
	We'll be praying for you.
	Love you.
	Every single night, every single night.
	That's what I'm telling my listeners, my viewers on Newsmax.
	Pray for the people of Ukraine, because this is their 1776.
	They will fight to the last man, because 8 million Ukrainians were murdered by Stalin, the Holomador, and they have long, long memories.
	Go to watchwpsn.com, check out the Warrior Poets Society, all the great gear, all the great content.
