♪♪ ♪♪
♪♪ Welcome, dear friends.
Greetings.
Yes, this is America First on the Salem News Network.
Across the nation, we have an incredible show for you today.
A third hour deep dive on can we stabilize the Middle East?
Can we be safe here in America without dealing with Iran?
We'll have one of the greatest experts I know in studio for the whole third hour.
Later on, in the first hour, we'll be talking to the most famous author alive in America today.
The one, the only, David Mamet, who has a message to his fellow Jews in America.
You can't vote Democrat anymore.
We'll be covering the latest updates from the shooting in Maine, but first things first, we have to celebrate After so much quote-unquote chaos, we have a speaker in the house.
But it could as easily not happened just as easily.
As a certain Matt Gaetz explained to my friend Stephen Bannon on his show yesterday, the behind-the-scenes skullduggery.
Just listen to this shocking cut.
So as Emmer is withdrawing, Mark Molinaro, a moderate New York freshman Republican, Stands up at the microphone and says, well, instead of restarting this process and having a candidate forum and sending everybody home for a good cry, let's just take a non-binding poll on where people would be on the person who came in second to Tom Emmer.
And that was Mike Johnson.
And Elise Stefanik said, well, that's against the rules.
The rules don't contemplate it.
We can't do that.
And brilliantly, Mark Molinaro says, Then I move for unanimous consent that the rules be waived and we take a poll on whether or not Mike Johnson could be our speaker nominee.
And guess who objects to that unanimous consent request?
Kevin McCarthy.
Who was that?
Kevin McCarthy stands up and erupts and says, I object.
to doing a roll call on Mike Johnson. And Mike Johnson was exasperated. All the times Johnson
had voted for McCarthy, it carried his water, maybe even voted for some bills he didn't like
because he was working toward the Republican conference's stated objectives under McCarthy.
And here was the thing. It showed everyone that it was actually McCarthy who was working to knife
Scalise.
It was actually McCarthy who was working to knife Jim Jordan.
It was McCarthy working to knife everyone.
And he hadn't yet figured out a way to knife Mike Johnson.
You expect the other side to be knifing you in the front and the back, but your own side?
I'm glad today he's not on the war room, he's with us and he's put on a tie for us because this is America First.
I'll be with Steve Bannon later today.
From Florida, Matt Gaetz, welcome to the Salem Network.
Thanks so much, Dr. Gorka, and I want to thank you and your listeners for all of the fuel you provided to our movement over these last few weeks as we've transitioned from Kevin McCarthy to Mike Johnson.
And this is actually a transition we can be quite excited about.
Mike Johnson is a God-fearing man.
He is a constitutional scholar and expert.
He doesn't believe that America needs to be forever entangled in foreign wars without a goal or aim or plan or purpose.
And he understands the Trump ideology of strong borders and better trade deals for the workers in our country.
I've sat next to Mike Johnson for seven years on the House Judiciary Committee.
We served together on the Armed Services Committee.
I know him as well as I know anyone in the United States Congress, and I couldn't be happier for him, for the Republican Party, and for the country that we finally got a speaker who is not totally bought and paid for by the special interests on K Street, and that's not a specific criticism of Kevin McCarthy.
That was the case with Nancy Pelosi.
That was the case with Paul Ryan.
That was the case with John Boehner.
Now we've got a good, honorable, virtuous man, and we have a plan that doesn't involve just mushing every agency of government together for one up or down vote.
Just today on the House floor, we're going to be taking votes on the specific legislation dealing with our energy and water priorities.
We're going to be slashing all of these incentives for the Green New Deal that Biden Head Advanced and we're going to end the Waters of the United States rule that's killing agriculture all over our nation.
I texted you yesterday.
I congratulated you.
I think, you know, you were, of course, the catalyst for moving from McCarthy to now Johnson.
A lot of people, you said you're excited by this maneuver.
I say, if this is chaos, give me more chaos.
Reminds me of when we were in the White House and everybody said, oh my gosh, the chaos in the White House.
OK, the border's secure, ISIS is crushed, the stock market is bigger than it's ever been, China's back in its box.
I want more crisis like this.
I want more chaos like that.
You were criticised roundly for the last three weeks, saying, oh my gosh, how dare he do this?
And he didn't have a strategy.
Will you respond to that criticism?
A lot of conservatives are saying, we have to lay down the law with Johnson.
These are demands on budgets, on the border.
Can you talk to us about your expectations moving forward?
Well, there is no side deal with Mike Johnson like we had to have with Kevin McCarthy, because we trust Mike Johnson to look us in the eye and tell us the truth, even if that is something we don't want to hear.
Kevin McCarthy's ultimate problem was he made multiple contradictory promises to everyone, and then when those came to be reconciled, it bred distrust throughout the conference.
But really, Kevin McCarthy was the fountainhead of that mistrust.
There is something called constructive chaos.
There's times when the orderly manner of things is a suboptimal path.
If you're walking on the road to perdition, you need a little chaos to get off that track and onto a better track.
I did have a strategy, and it was based in my knowledge that there was a group of people who all wanted to be speaker, who would showcase their ambition when the time was right.
I know Mike Johnson has long believed he had the capability to be Speaker of the House.
We've sat next to each other.
He's talked about how some of his skills would lend to that position.
Now, it wasn't Mike Johnson or Bust.
I think Jim Jordan could have been great.
I think Jody Arrington could have been great.
I think Kevin Hearn could have been great.
Mark Green could have been great.
We had this really, really strong group of talented people.
I knew once we got Kevin McCarthy out of the way that talent would emerge and now I think
we've got somebody who's really the cream of the crop in Mike Johnson.
I wasn't surprised.
People said, who is this guy?
I recognize his face from hearings, from fighting back impeachment, from grilling Alejandro Mayorkas to within an inch of his life on the floor of Congress.
There are those who are attacking him, of course, on the left.
And when Washington Post and CNN attacks him, for me, that's a great sign.
Some people on side who are alleged conservatives say oh no no no this is
the wrong guy he's as bad as somebody tweeted today this is as bad as McCarthy
based upon comments that Mike made the day after the George Floyd death about how
his black adopted son has problems in comparison to his white son would you talk
to those who are ostensible conservatives who say nah this guy's as bad as
McCarthy well the good news is this won't be an esoteric argument in nine
months because we will be able to compare the nine months of Kevin McCarthy to the
period we have ahead with Mike Johnson
And Chip Roy, a great conservative out of Texas, said to a group of us, what are you running on?
What are you going to tell the American people that Republicans fought for and fixed?
Are you going to run on an open border?
Are you going to run on the fact that we greenlit $4 trillion in additional debt in this crappy debt limit deal that Kevin McCarthy negotiated?
Are you going to campaign on continuing resolutions to advance Nancy Pelosi's funding priorities alongside the policies selected by Chuck Schumer?
Is that really what you want?
Because that was what we got under Kevin McCarthy.
You saw in just Mike Johnson's opening remarks a person who I think is deeply devout to conservative principles, but who has a manner that may be a little different than ours, Seb.
You know, we're pretty rough and tumble when it comes to advancing the America First agenda.
Mike Johnson, I think, is a very inviting leader.
He has a very cherished leadership style.
And a great sense of humor, clearly, from this stuff he was doing, trolling Nancy Pelosi yesterday on Twitter.
But I think you mentioned God four times in one sentence in front of your colleagues as he was convening the House.
That's a good enough sign for me.
I want to say we salute you here at America First, millions across the nation.

Uh... Wait, Boyle?
Or... Oh, sorry, no, no, no.
I was thinking of, uh, Mamet.
Oh, we're gonna try him again, just to test.
He said he thinks he's... Okay, fine.
Uh, do-do-do-do-do.
The unheard article, yeah.
I'm going to use Cut 2 here with Matt.
Bye.
Two?
Okay.
Christy?
Actually, I might use that in the...
...
you Yeah, can you hear me? Yep, I can. Three seconds. As far as
the other side of the world, I'm As far as the speaker is concerned, he is a fantastic
gentleman and I think he's going to do a great job.
Mike Johnson, Louisiana.
He's going to do a great job.
Thank you, everybody.
That was the president after he was fined for talking about his court case.
Thousands of dollars, but with a very simple message.
He knows Mike Johnson, the new Speaker of the House, and he has endorsed him.
Thank you to all of you who have donated so incredibly graciously to our campaign to help those who are suffering.
In Israel right now, we have joined forces with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews to get aid to the Israelis who are suffering right now as a result of the Hamas attacks.
If you want to make a difference, if you want to help innocent families, the easiest way is to call to make a tax-deductible donation.

That's S-E-B-G-O-R-K-A, sebgorka.com, and the Israel at War banner.
All right, we open the show with Matt Gaetz.
Let's continue to talk about the fact that I guess the chaos is over.
Time to crack a cold one with the Bureau Chief for Washington, D.C., of the conservative juggernaut, our regular guest and good friend, Matt Boyle.
Welcome to America First.
Dr. G, always a pleasure.
Great to be here.
Well, it's great to have you.
So were you surprised that it was Mike Johnson?
No, I'm not surprised in the end.
The fact is that it was pretty clear that Steve Scalise was not going to get there.
It was pretty clear that Tom Emmer was not going to get there.
What the establishment people did to Jim Jordan was inexcusable, and frankly I think those 25 are going to face serious consequences down the road for what they did.
Uh, but then after that is, uh, you know, kind of came became clear.
It's, you know, the Johnson was a logical pick.
I think he's very similar to Jim Jordan on policy, maybe a little bit different in terms of stylistic, you know, personality and whatnot.
Uh, but the fact is, is that I do think it's very similar to Jim Jordan.
Uh, but the one thing I would add is, is that just, look, I, I have very high hopes for Mike Johnson as Speaker, but this doesn't change that the Democrats control the U.S.
Senate and that Joe Biden sits in the Oval Office.
And it's important that people keep that in mind here as we're going into these fights, uh, heading into next year, uh, that, uh, the, the, There is an opportunity a little over a year from now to change both of those things and to give Speaker Johnson more support in the House so that if you want to see actual conservative reforms, you need to win elections.
If you want to see the changes that these guys are talking about implementing, you need to change the people who are in office.
And the fact is that they've got a four-seat majority.
As for the actual legislation that will be able to make it through the House of Representatives, it's not going to change much, right?
So you're going to see a little bit different of a style, I think, from Speaker Johnson than you saw from Speaker McCarthy.
But you're not going to see CRs and omnibuses like McCarthy.
I think you will see a CR.
I think you are going to see a CR.
So we're going to see exactly the same budgetary behavior?
I think you're going to see a CR come up.
The government funding deadline is three weeks from tomorrow.
I don't think they are going to be able to pass all the appropriations bills out of the House and Senate and force the president to sign them.
I think they are going to do a CR.
Chip Roy has been talking about this and he's saying that they would give the new speaker some time in a grace period to be able to get things done.
I think you're going to see a CR.
The question is for how long?
Uh, and I think you will see broader Republican support for it than you did in previous times because the new speaker just got elected and they want to support him.
But the idea that they're going to be able to roll the Senate in three weeks on, on appropriations bills, that the Senate hasn't even taken up one, nevermind the House has passed four now and they're about to pass, I think five and six today and tomorrow, but the, But the fact is that the, you know, and frankly, the strategy is the same that was started under McCarthy, right?
Like the, you know, the four appropriations bills that passed earlier this year.
Now, look, McCarthy probably should have been faster with that, right?
Like, so You know, we got one through in the summer and then three through in September.
But the fact is that I don't think you're going to see much change because, again, the reality is still the same here.
You've got a four seat majority in the House and you have a Democrat controlled Senate in White House.
And so, yeah, you know, I mean, they're not going to be able to force the Democrat controlled Senate in White House to accept the Republican appropriations bills in the next three weeks.
It's not going to happen.
Right.
Like, realistically, not going to happen.
So what difference does it make that Gates told us 10 minutes ago that there was no side deal with Johnson as there was with McCarthy.
Is he going to be tempted to play fast and loose?
I don't think so.
I think that Johnson is a kind of a clean slate for House Republicans.
Look, Republicans have been at war with themselves for over a decade now.
The last time you had a unanimous vote for Speaker was in John Boehner's first election
for Speaker in January 2011, right, until yesterday, right, when Speaker Johnson was
elected.
So the fact is that I think that there's a little bit of a, all of this stuff, a lot
of the stuff that you saw with McCarthy and fighting with a lot of these guys and whatnot,
I think is, a lot of it's holdover stuff that dates back, predates, long predates this Congress.
long predates this Congress.
And I think you're going to see Johnson starts with a clean slate in terms of that stuff
And I think you're going to see Johnson starts with a clean slate in terms of that stuff
because McCarthy was for, you know, to his detriment, he A lot of it's holdover stuff that dates back, predates,
because McCarthy was, to his detriment, he was a part of those leadership teams with
Boehner and then Ryan and whatnot.
And that cost him credibility with these people, whereas Johnson really wasn't.
And so I think that that kind of opens up some new things.
Not in terms of trust, but in terms of the actual structure of things.
There's not much that's going to change here.
I don't think you're going to see much commitment.
People change.
One thing you might see change is possibly could see Steve Scalise not being the majority
leader anymore down the road because it's kind of odd to have both the speaker and the
majority leader from the same state of Louisiana.
I don't think that'll happen overnight, but that could be a thing that happens down the road.
But in terms of like the actual approach to the government funding stuff, I mean, look, the realities that existed a month ago still exist today.
And that didn't change, right?
There's a four-seat majority in the House.
Democrats control the Senate and the White House.
To really change things, you need to change that.
And we've only got a minute left in this segment, but we'll keep you over.
What do we need to know about Mike Johnson, Matt?
Yeah, he's a really interesting guy.
He has his origins in the heart of the conservative movement and talk radio, right?
So I think that that keeps him in touch with people a little bit more than maybe some of these other career politicians that we see in Washington.
So that's some promise.
I think he has a history with the Alliance for Defending Freedom, which is a great conservative organization out there.
As a constitutional lawyer?
Yeah, exactly.
And so I think that that history is going to keep him grounded.
And by the way, one of the other things that's really interesting, the guy is not that wealthy, right?
Which as compared to a lot of these other career politicians, that's a good thing, I think, right?
He didn't go to Washington to get loaded, right?
He went to Washington to do the right things.
That's fascinating.
Good for him!
That's a good buck.
He's pissing off all the right people.
We're talking to the Washington Bureau Chief of Breitbart.com.

You Bye.
So we did... Oh, I'm going to use Cut 2 here with Matt.
No, play me Cut 4, please.
Jesse, the average around the world on how many kids are born to single parents is 7%.
China is 3%.
India is 4%.
America is not 10%, not 15%, not 20%.
We're at 23%.
India is 4%. America is not 10%, not 15%, not 20%. We're at 23%.
By the way, in 1940, the average kid that was born to a single mother,
it was only 4% of kids that were born that were born to a single mother.
Today, it's 40%.
Why FDR's policies?
LBJ took it to a whole different level in 1965.
And when you see stories like this, you think about a couple different things.
For me, I think this is going to sound bad.
Some people are not going to like when I say this.
I think the wrong people are having too many kids.
I think the right people are having too few kids.
Wow.
Oh, it is.
Oh, Eric, it is the Oink Oink book.
Yeah, the first book.
By the way, on that kids thing, Dr. G, the strength of marriage in the country has been weakening significantly in recent years, but one of the really cool things about Speaker Johnson is he's in what's called a covenant marriage, which makes it harder for him to get divorced if he ever wanted to.
It's kind of interesting, right?
It's a very interesting thing.
I don't know fully all about it, but it's different than most marriages, right?
It requires, I think, by law that they would have to go to marriage counseling significantly before they would ever actually be allowed to divorce.
You can't just, like, divorce or something like that.
It's a really interesting thing, so...
No, I'll tee it up.
to? No, I'll tee it up. I'll do my pillow here.
I'll do my pillow at the top.
I'll do my pillow at the top.
Oh, there he is.
There's my guy.
Good job.
How's your new show going?
Good?
Very well, thank you.
I heard.
Good.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So very, very kind of you.
Oh, I forgot to mention.
This new speaker, he's been very busy.
Do you remember Jamal Bowman?
The guy who pulled the fire alarm to try and interrupt a government proceeding?
As a member of Congress, he's already been fined.
Yes, because he committed a crime in Congress.
Here he is.
Cut five.
I'm not trying to disrupt any, you know, official government proceedings.
I'm glad, you know, the investigation found that that was the case.
The misdemeanor charge of pulling the alarm, I admitted that from the very beginning.
So, you know, gotta take responsibility.
Yeah, I think we should put you in prison for 41 months like the QAnon shaman, right?
Because he didn't do anything at all.
He didn't even disrupt the proceedings, but you did.
If you enjoy what we provide for you here on America First, support those who make it possible.
Great patriots like Mike Lindell, friend of President Trump, celebrating 20 years of my pillow this year.

We're back with Matt Boyle of brightbarn.com, the Washington bureau chief for that conservative juggernaut.
Let's talk about big picture politics.
Let's talk about 2024.
You know who I'm voting for, but there's somebody who's allegedly still in the race and he is just, he has become a, he A large repository, not suppository, but it could be that as well, of left-wing talking points.
He's reheated a very, very hackneyed one.
This is Chris Christie, cut two.
He can't shut up, Neil.
He can't help himself.
It was so obvious that what he said, and then he has coarse, does what he always does, which is has his lawyers lie for him.
Those lies were, as they always are, insufficient.
And so he got fined another $10,000.
Look, I'm equally disturbed by the post he put out regarding Mark Meadows.
Now look, the walls are closing in around him.
I understand that, and more importantly, he understands that.
You follow the media pretty closely, especially the lying legacy mainstream media, Matt.
I think I've heard that phrase, the walls are closing, in a few times already in the last six years.
Yeah, well, I mean, they've been saying it for forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever, but it's not happened, and it doesn't appear to be happening this time either.
Look, the polls show that if the polls are correct right now, right?
And they're usually shaded in the Democrats' direction, right?
But if the polls are correct right now, Donald Trump's going to win the Electoral College in a landslide election.
He's leading Joe Biden in Michigan.
He's leading Joe Biden in Wisconsin.
He's leading in Pennsylvania.
He's leading in Georgia, Arizona, all the states he won in 2020.
So Donald Trump right now is the front runner of either party for the presidency.
Of any party, any candidate anywhere in America, Donald Trump is the front-running candidate for the presidency, and that includes the incumbent president.
So he's not just the Republican front-runner and the likely Republican nominee, which I fully expect him to be next year.
Donald Trump is the front-running candidate of any party, of any stripe at all, for the presidency right now.
Know that about him.
We've got a minute left.
I have to ask you.
He snuck around the White House nine months ago when Biden was traveling.
He went to Israel.
Now he went to meet with the dictator of China.
Is Newsom preparing to challenge Biden?
It's too late.
The filing deadlines are already passing in most of the primary states.
What if he withdraws?
What if Biden is pushed out for health reasons?
If Biden's pushed out for health reasons, it goes to Kamala, right?
So it's next in line, right?
So there would have to be some real chicanery at the Democrat convention, especially as more and more of these filing deadlines pass.
Like I said, they already passed in Nevada.
They're passing in other states very soon.
If you're going to stand up a campaign, you wouldn't need to do it.
Start it at the latest about a month ago.
It's too late.
Too late for Gavin!
Maybe he'll save some of the California taxpayers' money on the junket trips around the world to pretend to be presidential.

Welcome back.
Welcome back, dear friends.
If you've had it with the transgender insanity, support the brave lady who's taking the fight to the lunatics, Riley Gaines.
We are delighted to announce that the Leadership Institute, headed by that superb freedom fighter
Morton Blackwell, has given her a new home called the Riley Gaines Center.
She's recruiting young men and women across the nation to protect women's rights, especially
in the sporting field, to stop cheats like Will quote-unquote Leah Thomas from destroying
the careers of young women across the nation.
If you want to support her, text the word REAL, as in REAL WOMAN, to 30102 or just go
to teamriley.org.
That's the word REAL, to 30102 or just go to teamriley.org today to support this brave
lady.
Portions of America First are brought to you in part.
By the Leadership Institute.
All right, the call board is full.
Don't go anywhere.
Roy, Derek, Phil, Antoinette, Brent, we will get to your calls, but we have to talk to a good friend of ours who can give us an update on what is happening in Israel.
He is the co-host of the Israel Update with our very good friend here in DC, Michael Duran, and we are delighted to have him back on the show.
It's been far too long.
Gadi Taub!
Sebastian, yes, it has been too long.
Since CPAC, I think.
Oh my gosh.
Oh my gosh.
That's like centuries ago.
So, I want everybody to follow your account on Twitter.
It's GadiTaub1.
That's G-A-D-I-T-A-U-B-1.
And right at the top of your Twitter feed, you have a very interesting post concerning some of the allegations About why Israel was so surprised, why it was so confused, why there was this intelligence failure.
Many people have said, oh, it's because of, you know, Bibi and what he did to the Supreme Court.
Can you explain just how misrepresented that judicial reform story has been in the mainstream media, Gadi?
Yeah, the whole struggle is a struggle between an elite institution.
Israel elites rules through the Supreme Court.
If you start examining the power of the Supreme Court in Israel, you won't believe that it's a democracy.
There is no limit to its power.
It can intervene in anything.
It can strike down legislation.
But also it had the power to, like, fire anybody from the government, correct?
Yes, it did that too.
And it basically recently declared that it has the power to nullify elections.
So this was a great convulsion and controversy in Israel, and then this war happened.
And the people who protested judicial reform did something that used to be taboo in Israeli society.
Some of them said they refused to do their reserve service.
if this judicial reform goes through.
They threatened to take apart the army, which is, as you know, the heart of sovereignty,
if sovereignty is the ability to wield power.
And then this war happened.
And of course, what Nasrallah in Hezbollah in Lebanon and Ismail Haniya in Hamas in Gaza,
they were not impressed by judicial reform, but they really were impressed by what they
perceived to be the breaking down of the army.
So the people who supported the refuseniks are now blaming Netanyahu as if Nasrallah was sitting there and saying, They're cutting the power of the Supreme Court.
That's the time to attack.
Wow.
I have to ask you, what is the mood in Israel?
We want Bibi, we want the IDF to go in there and destroy Hamas and then salt the earth on top of their remains.
We're waiting, waiting, waiting.
I know Biden got in the way.
What is the spirit of the Israeli people today?
Well, I've just posted an essay by my friend Ran Barad who said it's the spirit of 1948.
Imagine what it would be to say in America the spirit of 1776.
That's what he said because the institution failed on October 7, miserably, and we'll have to examine everything from intelligence to operational Failure.
But the spirit of the people did not.
And people rushed into the fire, grabbing the first gun they could find and the first car they could they could they could get into and just rushed into this fight and save probably hundreds and hundreds of people.
I mentioned today on our on our show, it's going to go up in two hours or so on rumble.
I mentioned a young officer, a young girl, 22 years old, who saved her whole crew by
holding back a group of terrorists at a corridor.
And she sacrificed her life to give her crew the five seconds they needed to get to safety.
So that's the spirit of Israel.
The spirit of Israel, as Ran said, we are a warrior nation.
Yeah, I think I used that woman's photograph in a speech I gave last week.
She was at a training camp and she saved all of her recruits.
She and her squad leaders were killed.
That is the definition of a warrior.
Let's talk about the people who are helping Hamas around the world, including here in America.
This is Cut 6.
This is somebody who hates Israel as well.
Play Cut.
We calling you to boycott!
Boycott!
McDonald's, Disney, Nestle, Coca-Cola, Pizza Hut, Burger King, Pepsi, Domino's, Papa John's, Nike, CeraVe, and Airbnb, Subway, Walmart, and Dasani, and the list goes on!
This demonstration should make our demands clear!
So that woman is calling for the boycott of McDonald's, Starbucks and Nike because they do business with Israel.
I think in the Cold War we call these people useful idiots, correct Gadi?
Yes, exactly.
And also incredible political infantiles.
They just don't understand the world one bit.
And also, Sebastian, look at the moral hypocrisy, not just of these people, of the whole world.
These terrorists came in.
I don't want to horrify your listeners.
They mutilated people alive in front of their family.
And then when Israel retaliates and they hide their weapons behind women and children, then we are blamed for civilian casualties, although we take the utmost precautions to warn people to leave the sites we're going to bomb.
No army does that.
No, you do things that actually endanger your troops because you so respect your rules of engagement.
No other nation, especially in your neck of the woods.
Please follow this man, Gaditaub1 on Twitter.
And especially, listen, I can't wait for the upload in a few hours on Rumble of your podcast,
the Israel Update, with our other good friend Michael Duran.
Thank you, Gadi.
I'm Sebastian Gawker.

Waiting patiently in Georgia.
Roy, welcome to America First.
I wanted to give a big shout out to my lieutenant governor, Burt Jones.
He is proposing to arm and to fund teachers to protect our most vulnerable from what happened in Israel.
And thank you, Burt Jones.
You'll make a great governor in Georgia when you get there.
But I want to make sure that we are very vigilant out in this world.
The Israel event opens our eyes.
We need to be ready.
They're rolling back their Second Amendment or their gun prohibition laws.
I mean, it was already pretty armed for those who are conscripts, but in the last few days they have rolled back and made it even easier for civilians to acquire weapons.
Thank you for that great update from the state of Georgia.
Let's go to Derek in Cleveland.
Thank you, Dr. Gorka.
So real quick, I just want to say that, Dr. G, when you tell your dad's story about what happened to him in Hungary, you know, it's just another reminder of how good we have it here in the United States, how easy, how cushy our lives have been, that we haven't had to face those kind of horrific events as just is going on in Israel now.
The reason I call it, I want to make a comparison between, now maybe I'm not remembering clearly, wasn't it just last year that there was a major unrest in Iran?
Yeah, there have been for the last eight years.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, and specifically wasn't this last time it occurred because wasn't there a young girl that the morality police killed because she wasn't wearing her headdress.
Yeah.
Correct.
So, if the, so, the where, I don't know, I don't, maybe I'm wrong, but I don't remember
the squad.
I don't remember the college protesters.
I don't remember the concern.
I'm pretty sure, I mean, there were a lot of protesters.
I'm pretty sure the Iranian government, I'm pretty sure they arrested a lot of the people
that were activists and protesting for their civil rights.
I'm pretty sure they were arrested and killed, weren't they?
Yeah, a lot of...
Yes, absolutely.
The person you're talking about was Masa Amini.
My gosh, stay on the line, Derek.
We need to reward you for that.
Where's the squad, the ones that are crying for the poor Palestinian babies when young women are being shot to death?
On the streets of Iran.
That footage of that woman.
Do you remember?
Bleeding out on camera.
Stinking hypocrites.
Stay on the line.
Let's get Derek.
Let's get him whatever he wants from the Trump 2024 line.
God bless.

a block.
Derek, that was superb.
Thank you.
You get to choose a yard sign, t-shirt, or mug.
Will you just tell Jeff and give him your address?
Yes, thank you, sir, so much.
I'm sorry.
This is so outrageous.
I mean, the details are coming out of what happened at the beginning of the month over there.
I mean, my God, how horrific.
Yeah, and then they blame Israel.
Superb, superb.
Stay on the line, Derek.
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you.
you you
you .
The most awesome pipes in Doc Radio, Sebastian Gorka.
Thank you, so kind.
Very, very kind of you.
We're back.
It's monologue time, usually in the second.
I'm not getting... Jeff, I'm not doing enough monologues, am I, lately?
I just... We're so packed with amazing guests.
Do you think people are getting pissed off out there?
However, you're not doing as many calls, either.
And I think that's where you're going.
Well, I'm going to go to calls now, but there's one person on our team who keeps saying he'd listen to three hours of monologue, you know, like Bongino or Plant, but I need to do more of them.
No, I'm going to ask Mr. G. I'm in the more of the monologue camp.
You are in the more monologue camp?
Eric, where do you stand monologues, vice guests and callers?
Monologues are great, and you have an incredible lineup of guests, but the callers really can be the best part of the show, especially between the fans and the crazies who call in.
I love the callers.
The monologues sometimes when I don't prepare and are spontaneous are pretty cool.
But you know what I hear most often when I'm traveling?
You know what I hear most often?
They say they love the guests.
They love the guests.
Well, maybe we should ask them.
Let's ask our callers.
Let's go to Phil in Philly!
Hey, Dr. G, thanks for taking the call.
What do you like, Phil?
Do you like monologues, guests, or callers?
Your monologues end my day, start my day.
I mean, it is freaking great.
Thank you, buddy.
The callers are pretty good, especially the guys from Philadelphia.
They're not too bad.
But I'll tell you, I can't stand going after Brent.
It's like going after the best guy at karaoke night.
It's like, I'm like, can't get my thoughts together.
He's on the line, so I've picked you first so that Brent is going to have to be, you know, second fiddle to you today because he's a hard act to follow.
Oh, absolutely, absolutely.
No better time to cause a little chaos than when you already caused some chaos.
Yeah!
And a suggestion for Representative Gates Bodies, not bullets for Ukraine.
How about the Illegal Immigrant Service Act?
Oh, you sent me this email last night.
You are such a crazy SOB.
Alright, tell everybody what you sent me on email last night.
Okay.
When they get into Texas, Governor Abbott needs to send them over to Ukraine.
Z, Zelensky, is mobilizing every citizen to fight these Russians.
Let them get over there.
They serve, they get automatic citizenship.
If they die in battle, their family gets automatic citizenship.
We can't let them sit around here collecting welfare, social security, get a driver's license and vote while we made this country with blood and guts and tears.
It's not fair.
I know you can legally deport people.
I'm not sure you can force them to fight another war.
But we love you, Phil.
Keep being the crazy man you are.
Let's go ladies first before we go to our poet laureate of the airways.
Is it Thursday?
Antoinette, California!
Oh, Dr. G, go to Brent.
I'm sorry.
You are so patient.
Thank you for waiting, my dear.
It's okay.
It actually is thirsty, Dr. G. And I actually have two things that are making me laugh, because I know how good Brent is, and that's okay.
Look, he better bring his A-game today, because he's been waiting for about an hour.
You've built him up.
Phil's built him up.
If he's going to punt it, I don't know.
He's sweating bullets right now.
I can see it through the phone lines.
But what two things did you want to share with us, Antoinette?
And so I am going to be short so Greg can bring in the other A-game.
Here in California, the state Senate has approved a bill to protect all the prescription medications for the abortion pill to patients from other states.
Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
How's that legal?
California is going to provide... You can't even get medical assurance across state lines.
How the heck are they going to give abortion pills to people who aren't residents of California?
Tell me about it.
So they're going to protect the doctors because, you know, God forbid in their ultrasound it reveals something with their placenta growing abnormally wrong.
Then they have all this bleeding and then they're going to die.
Because a lot of women don't understand that abortion pill can go very, very, very wrong.
And they don't get it.
They don't get it.
So the state can illegally tell pharmacists not to fulfill a legal prescription for either mectin or hydroxychloroquine, but you can get an abortion drug if you're not a... This is crazy.
Stay on the line.
I want you to give the details of that new law or that regulation to Jeff, because we need to drill down on that.
Thank you for that horrific update.
Oh, you had another point, Antoinette?
Uh, just to say that we had a great, great turnout today at the Tustin Orange, and blessings to everybody that prays for the passive Planned Parenthood.
Thank you, guys, from the bottom of our hearts.
Thank you, Voice for the Voiceless Antoinette.
God bless you.
Stay on the line and Jeff or Eric will get the details.
All right, let's go to the Poet Laureate.
of America First, from Los Angeles, the one, the only, Brent!
Belated birthday blessings Great Gorka!
As long as he didn't say belated birthday boy, welcome and thank you Brent.
And when you shared the miraculous, biblically themed movie story of your father's triumph Uh, when he so valiantly fought against the devil in Hungary, and then the sequel of his dauntless son carrying on his same godly fight against the same demon welcomed by Democrats into our land to extinguish the fire of God here,
I realized we are marching to victory when I see how confidently, proudly, and joyfully so many righteous Christians and Jews still carry and cherish the divine light of America's new dawn.
God bless you for saying that.
It's really weird that you commend listening to that story because I always, I say it about once a year or maybe twice a year and I always feel weird about saying it because I think people have heard it before and then also I kind of take it for granted but you know, you Brent, other callers, people on social media, it strikes a chord in them and I think it also gives us perspective that
Even when things are much, much worse than they are here in America, when you actually have a communist dictatorship with political prisons, not political prisoners as we do here, the J6s, but whole prison systems that are there for just those who think and say the wrong thing, I think it helps us give all of us a new perspective that everything is possible and we fight and we fight and we fight and we never give up.
God bless you, Brent.
Go ahead, go ahead.
And it reminds us there are miracles in this world and many of them we're looking at and we're talking to.
I've known people who've come out of Auschwitz and they had families.
Those were miracles.
No, totally, totally.
And again, it gives you perspective.
If you can have people survive, The death camps?
Hitler's final solution?
Then I'm sorry, there's no excuse.
Then the human spirit can always prevail.
God bless you, Brent.
Let's squeeze in one more call.
Let's go to Darren, Minneapolis.
Hello, Dr. Gorkin.
Hey.
I wanted to comment.
I love your monologues, the guests are great too, but my favorite thing is the callers.
Funny.
Tell me why you love the callers.
The reason why is it gives me a little hope for this country because the media, of course, is covering people that are marching in the streets for Palestine and Hamas.
To me, it's like, thank God there are other people that have brains.
Because I can say, I told your caller, Hamas and Palestine is just damn lucky that I'm not a politician and the Prime Minister of Israel.
I would annihilate them off the face of the earth.
They wouldn't have, there would be none of them left at all.
I think the things that I have heard on your show, the things that they have done to innocent Israelis, I don't know how everybody is not marching in the streets in support of Israel.
And I just don't get it.
It's like we live in a country where 50% of the country is absolute morons.
It's unbelievable.
Yeah, Darren, you know, I've been thinking the same thing for, you know, since today.
You know, great minds think alike.
We see these protests, thousands of people, tens of thousands of people in New York, in Boston, in, you know, Sydney, Australia.
Where are the marches for Israel?
Where are the protests on the side of those who lost their children, their grandmothers?
I mean, that's why we saw one thing that was so moving.
I think I've got half a million You know, interactions on social media, this amazing march by the Catholics processing through New York the day after the massacre in Israel.
Why is it one event in New York that has to be a religious one?
It should be all Americans.
Stay on the line, Darren.
Such a great call, such a good point.
Let's give Darren a signed copy of Defeating Jihad.
It's the book, I thought, I can kind of leave behind.
It's the one that got me into the White House.
It's what I did for 20 years teaching counterterrorism.
Sadly, it is now more relevant than ever.
Understand the threat.
Darren's going to get his copy free.
He's going to get it signed if you want to know just who it is that wants to kill you and what we need to do about it.
Get Defeating Jihad.
Get The War for America's Soul or my second book Why we fight, all available at sebgorkastore.com.

Top of your game.
I know it's tough out there and we have to put up with the insanity of the Biden regime, but we have to be fighting fit.
How do we do that?
You can't be fighting fit if you're carrying a spare tire around your midriff.
Look, I could hide it for many years, 20 years, because I'm six foot three.
It's easy.
But it's wrong, and it's not healthy.
And finally, with the amazing offices of Dr. Ashley Lucas, I lost 42 pounds.
Yeah.
My PhD weight loss is real.
No stupid pill popping, no calorie counting, no starvation diet, just five meals a day that help you burn the fat.
I can do it!
Anyone can.
Seriously, you know me.
Wicked sweet tooth.
Love my fried food.
Look at that.
That was a vest that was tailor-made for me.
Could fit a walrus.

All right, I may sound like a broken record half the time when I talk about the need for conservatives to do good cultural content.
Every Friday we're going to do it again tomorrow with one of my favorite ever movies.
We celebrate movies for a whole hour.
At the end of the show it's called Making Movies Great Again.
One man who gets it, well, um, Let's show an example of it.
Cut 10.
Amazing documentary about an amazing patriot.
Play cut.
Hey, come on.
We know what this is all about.
This isn't about what they say it's about, so people should just tell the truth.
This is the wrong black guy.
He has to be destroyed.
Just saying.
Then now at least we're honest with each other.
The great Clarence Thomas talking about what happened to him, a high-tech lynching.
Why?
Because he dared to be black and a conservative.
An amazing documentary made by a very special in-studio guest, none other than Michael Pack.
Michael, welcome in studio with a member of your team.
I think he's related to you.
Distant relation.
Distant.
He's my son, Thomas.
Thomas, welcome in studio.
Well, you've written an article recently that explains what we need to do as a nation, and it's very simple.
You can't fight the culture war without making movies.
Can we start with a diagnosis?
You've been making, I don't know how many films you've made, dozens, scores of movies.
Fifteen.
They're all superb.
They've made it onto places that you wouldn't expect them to get onto, you know, mainstream platforms.
Why are you like a unicorn?
Why are conservatives so bad at making cultural content, especially movies?
Can we start with a diagnosis?
Well, I think you're right.
I mean, that is the problem, exactly as you stated it.
And I think it's got a lot of roots.
I wrote this article, probably a way too long article, in Real Clear Politics, analyzing it.
But I think there are lots of reasons.
But I think the biggest reason is that the left has put poor time and attention, talent and resources into the process.
As you know, they started taking over the long march to the institutions in the 60s.
You know, they failed to create Marxist revolution in the streets and they did the next
best thing, cultural revolution, starting at the University but very quickly
expanding to culture, movies and TV and documentaries in particular.
And did we just like ignore that field or just slowly slough out of it?
Well I say in my piece that it isn't really a culture war when one side is fighting and has an army in the field
and the other side writes articles complaining about that army.
Who is going to win?
That's not a culture war.
That's grousing.
That's grousing.
And we've done a lot of it.
And look, a lot of my friends have done a lot of very great grousing about it over the years and wrote brilliant pieces and great analyses.
But we don't need more analyses.
We need to make culture and be in the fight.
And there are a lot of reasons why that hasn't happened.
I think it also goes back to the university.
There are 4,000 colleges and universities across the country.
Every one of them has a film school.
So they're graduating tens of thousands of wannabe filmmakers every year.
5% or less have talent, but they have the winnowing process.
We are stuck with the people who rebel against that.
Let's, let's, actually it's a great segue.
There's a billionaire called Leon Cooperman who used some naughty language on Fox Business to talk about what the universities are actually doing.
This is Cut Eleven, Leon Cooperman.
Where are we in the world when 1,300 Israeli civilians... I think these kids at the colleges had s**t for brains.
We have one reliable ally in the Middle East.
That's Israel.
We only have one democracy in the Middle East.
That's Israel.
Okay?
And we have one economy tolerant of different people.
You know, gays, lesbians, etc.
That's Israel.
So they have no idea what these young kids are doing.
And that's one of the reasons I wrote my book.
Now the real shame is I've given to Columbia probably about 50 million dollars over many years and I'm going to suspend my giving.
I give my giving to other organizations.
Leon Cooperman gave 50 million dollars to Columbia and he realizes that they've got sewage for brains.
Thomas, talk to us about how much changes with the fact it's not just movies.
We're in a social media age.
There's other ways to reach out to a younger generation.
Does that make things easier or more difficult for conservatives?
I think that the entire media landscape, as you know as well as anyone, is changing pretty radically.
And people are looking to take their media from other ways, and I think that that does threaten the Hollywood system that has been so dominated by the progressive left.
But I think, I don't know if it makes it easier for conservatives, it makes it more democratized.
What you need in order for it to be easier for conservators is for conservators to be making great products.
I think that's why it starts in the university, because it starts with training, and it starts with introducing young filmmakers to the sort of strategy behind how to make a good film, and how to make something that people want to watch, and how to get it out there.
Michael, this is...
We have the right of Hollywood.
We can't change Hollywood, correct?
We have to build something alternative to Hollywood.
That is right.
We need our own ecosystem.
Conservatives have been begging Hollywood to tell their stories for years to very little avail.
So look, as Thomas says, it begins with training.
So we are trying in our way to start this process.
We have this incubator to train young, right-of-center filmmakers.
We're going to give up.
Actually, I should let Thomas tell.
But we want to create a generation who can make a product.
A lot of conservative product, as you know, in this area has actually not been good.
And we have to at least start with air.
Can you maybe could Thomas tell you what we're doing in that?
Well, he can.
We'll keep you over for one more segment.
You'll tell us about it.
about this new incubator.

We'll be back with Michael and Thomas in a moment.
Oh good.
How long is it?
Yeah, I want that one.
That's perfect.
Come in with that, then I'll do my pillow, and then I'll go to Thomas.
Yeah.
So, does the Palladium site have details of the incubator?
Yes.
Okay.
Yes.
It has an Apply Now button.
Yeah.
Big.
Oh, nice.
A big incubator button, yeah.
Good.
Exciting.
When did that launch?
Well, the website launched a month and a half ago or something like that.
It's a new company with this new vision.
We'll be having David Mamet on next.
Oh, he's great.
He is great.
He's another one of the few that sort of changed, fell off, went the other way.
Well, and he's big enough not to care.
He can just say it out how it is.
That's right.
Although I think it's hurt his place.
I'm sure it has, but I think he's at a point in his career where he says, you know, I'm prepared to say the truth.
Well, that's right.
He does, you know.
He's still afraid of saying he's conservative, exactly.
He wants to create a little... His latest article about how Jews need to leave the Democrat Party, I think it's pretty obvious.
It's pretty obvious.
Well, and this latest thing, you know, it's not a wake-up call for people like that.
This is the thing, it's like, the fact that only orthodox Jews vote conservative, it's like, so you've got a president?
Who, after 23 years, recognized Jerusalem, moved the embassy, and you're voting for the Democrats?
Well, now they see.
You think?
You think the secular Jews... I think that some of them... My wife likes the story that some of them woke up on whatever it was, October 6th, progressive, and went to sleep conservative.
Seeing what happened, seeing the college campuses... It's a wake-up call to some.
I don't know whether it will move the numbers on the Jewish vote, which is pretty depressing.
It should move all of them to sanity.
I just wrote a piece for AMAC on the lie about the Southern strategy.
You know how, you know, the South was racist when it was Democrat.
Right.
But then it switched and now the Republican Party are the racist.
That's right.
That's the story.
Which is garbage.
I say there's another switcheroo.
The antisemitism.
Which party is institutionally antisemitic?
Indeed.
We don't have a Rashida Tlaib in the Republican Party.
We do not.
We don't have an Ilhan Omar.
We don't.
There's nobody in Congress who's anti-Israel.
Nobody.
Well, to say nothing of their supporting governments that are murdering Jews, there is no right-wing government murdering Jews.
Maybe there would be ones that want to, or people would want that, but the ones that are out there committing genocide, supported by the left, are all on one side.
If they hate America, if they hate the Jews, the Democrats are on their side.
That's a good point.
Really that simple.
Right, come in with Clarence, and then Pillow, and then we'll go to Thomas.
Okay, we did that.
They can still see that Clarence Thomas film streaming on Amazon.
Amazon?
But also on Fox Nation.
What's the title in his own words?
It's called Create It Equal.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching!
It's a national disgrace.
Thank you.
And it is a message that unless you kowtow to an old order, you will be lynched, destroyed, caricatured by a committee of the U.S.
Senate rather than hung from a tree.
Wow, what a man, what a warrior.
Clarence Thomas, Judge Clarence Thomas at the confirmation hearings in front of the chairman of the Judiciary Committee who was Senator Joe Biden.
He was a racist then, he was a bigot!
He was the man driving that high-tech lynching of an uppity black man because he dared to be a conservative, and he's still a bigot and a racist today.
Oh, remember he called the segregationists of the South fine gentlemen, his colleagues.
Yeah, that's what he did.
It's an incredible film.
Just seeing this massive visage of Clarence Thomas staring at you for an hour and a half, telling the story of his incredible life.
It's called Created Equal.
You can watch it on the usual streaming services.
Please watch our friend Michael Pack's movie, Created Equal, Clarence Thomas in his own words.
All right, we're here with his son, Thomas.
Thomas, tell us about this brand new venture.
Tell us about this incubator at palladiumpictures.com.
Yeah, absolutely.
So we're, you know, putting our money where our mouth is when it comes to not just creating films that impact culture, but training the next generation to create that network effect.
So it's a great opportunity for up and coming producer directors that want to make conservative documentaries.
So we're going to take people, are going to apply with an idea for a concerted documentary
short.
They'll get full funding, which I think is a great opportunity, up to $30,000 to make
a 5-15 minute film.
We will help with their distribution once they're finished with it.
And I think these are great opportunities for filmmakers to get something fun and distributed.
They also get on top of that, I think, maybe even more crucial, mentorship from Michael Pack, who's a lot of, you know, many decades of experience creating documentary films.
And they get to be part of this network that we're building as we sort of start to put together the infrastructure that will sort of underlie, you know, conservative culture in film and building it out.
Palladiumpictures.com is a big incubator button to apply.
Go there right now.
Any limits on topics or any suggestions?
What are you looking for when it comes to topics to make documentaries out of?
Our big focus is to tell stories.
Not just to have an idea, a conservative idea that you want to express, but a story.
That awful phrase, narrative, right?
Well, that's right.
It gets overused, and Left uses it to make it all value-free.
So our stories, we like to think, contain truth.
But they need an actual story.
They need access to a story.
Even though it's only a 5- to 15-minute film, it's got to have a beginning, middle, and an end.
They have to have a notion.
We will guide them and help them.
And they have to have shown a little talent, made some short film themselves.
But we set it up so that it's easy to apply.
When is the deadline?
It's coming up pretty soon.
December 1.
December 1.
For the first round, which is not that hard.
Get busy friends, get busy.
If you've got a good story, how about this idea?
Alan Dershowitz has a suggestion for all those who aren't supporting Israel and perhaps it could be an interesting narrative with regards to the war in the Middle East.
This is Cut 7, Alan Dershowitz.
I want to make sure everybody in the world knows who they are so that they can decide whether these people deserve to be hired for jobs.
That's not doxing.
That's not McCarthyism.
That's transparency.
That's the essence of the First Amendment.
I will personally participate In the naming and publicizing the names of these students.
Let them come after me at Harvard.
Let them show some sympathy for the people who were murdered and raped and robbed.
And let these students who signed this demonstration blaming it all on Israel, let them go and volunteer.
Gay students for Palestine in Gaza.
Transgender students for Palestine in Gaza.
You know how long they would last?
One day they'd be hanged from the rafters.
Hyperbole, we've seen the placards on the streets of New York.
Gays and lesbians for Palestine.
Maybe they should travel there, see how long they last.
But maybe, I don't know, a documentary?
A 10-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute film on what happened to Jewish students in America in the last three weeks.
There's some frightening stories.
There's an idea.
So many to choose from.
If you've wanted to Get some kind of advice, some mentorship from one of the best in the business.
Go today!

The incubator is up there.

As a first responder to this, what was done to these people of
southern Israel?
Well, I don't want to get people scared from what I'm saying, but I saw beheaded bodies.
I saw body parts.
There is one of my friends who was in Kfar Azzam.
He told me that he found in one house a husband and wife and two children.
They killed the husband first.
They took his eyes out.
I saw the body by myself.
They took the eyes out.
And they cut the breast of the woman.
And they cut the leg of the girl.
That's the family that I saw with my own eyes.
It's an emergency worker in Israel talking about the horrific things that Hamas did to innocent Israelis, to families, to children, to women.
Israel will do what has to be done.
God bless all the members of the IDF.
In the meantime, what can we do?
There is something you can do.
We have partnered with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews to get much-needed emergency aid to those who are suffering in Israel.
Please be as generous as you can.
A donation in any amount makes a difference, but this is a nation at war with those who want to kill every single person in Israel.

My former Fox colleague Greg Gutfeld has, he may be a comedian, but he's put a superb gloss on what we've witnessed in the last three weeks and especially the last three years.
Before we introduce our next guest, let's just hear from Greg Gutfeld on the geopolitics of the last six years.
Cut three.
Weird and amazing.
The further away we get from Trump 2020, the closer he gets to the White House in 2024.
Everything that he's done just looks better and better.
Between inflation, home prices, a hot war, a cold war, a broken border, decimated cities.
It makes you dream of a strong country whose only problem was an intelligentsia plagued by mean tweets and crass jokes.
We lost Trump because the media preferred peace of mind over actual peace.
And now Joe's got to be worried because there's a major wake-up call going on in his party.
Jewish Democrats woke up October 8th and found that all their allies that they supported now see them as part of the problem.
The further away we get from 2020, the better President Trump looks.
Why?
Because he understood the exercise of power and how you protect the innocent.
Another man who understood that is one of the greatest writers alive today, who is responsible for, well, let's just play a clip from one of my favorite movies.
It's The Untouchables.
You said you wanted to know how to get to Capone.
Do you really want to get him?
You see what I'm saying?
What are you prepared to do?
Everything within the law.
And then what are you prepared to do?
If you open the ball on these people, Mr. Nash, you must be prepared to go all the way.
Because they won't give up the fight until one of you is dead.
I want to get Capone.
I don't know how to get him.
Want to get Capone?
Here's how you get him.
He pulls a knife, you pull a gun.
He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue.
That's the Chicago way.
And that's how you get Capone.
The genius behind Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross.
Speed, the plow, the untouchables, the postman always rings twice.
So much more.
Hoffa, Wag the Dog.
We are honored to have on the show none other than David Mamet.
Mr. Mamet, welcome to America First.
Thank you, Sam.
It's great to be here.
Thanks for playing that clip.
You have a new book, which will be the basis for a new project.
We're very excited to discuss that.
But first, in the website UnHerd, you published an article with the title, How the Democrats Betrayed the Jews.
Would you speak to your reaction to the geopolitical events of the last three weeks?
Yeah, the actual article was entitled, which of course is German for Jews get out because we're going to kill you.
But they, they, they, they retitled it.
Yes, the, I've often thought and now It's so clear that any Jew who votes for a Democrat is literally out of their mind.
I'm not saying that to be hyperbolic, but they're crazy, because it's like black people in voting for the Confederacy, saying, let's go back to slavery.
The anti-Semitic forces in the world want to kill all the Jews and the Democrats support them.
I just sent you a cartoon I did about the gates of Auschwitz.
Of course, we know over the gates of Auschwitz is So I changed it to Schweigenmacht frei, which is silence will make you free, and underneath it says Jews welcome the Democratic National Committee welcomes you to Auschwitz.
So any Jew who votes for the Democrats, they may think they're voting for Franklin Roosevelt, but he hated the Jews too.
He sent tens of thousands of them back to die, and he let millions of them die because he refused to interdict Right.
So it's time for the Jews to give it another think.
Just as our wonderful President Trump went into the black communities and said, you know
what, what have you got to lose?
And a lot of people listen to him because it's true.
So right now people need to read your article.
I'd like to keep you on for one more segment to discuss your new book, but in the meantime, in the next 60 seconds before we go to break, what is your message to your fellow Jewish Americans concerning the Democrat Party?
What should they do in the next 14 months?
Well, what they should do is get out of the party.
They should register as Republicans.
They should stop giving anything to Democratic candidates.
And they should start investigating which candidates on the other side of the aisle are most likely going to vote for Jews.
And the interest of Jews, both in Israel and here, and they should hold them to account just like our friends the evangelicals do, and the people they elect.
They don't say, oh, please, please.
They say, okay, we're giving you this much money.
Here's what we expect.
We're going to be back next week and talk again.
It's like the blacks voting for the Confederacy.
Perfect analogy.
American Jews voting for the Democrats when they have the likes of Elhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib amongst their leading lights.
We're talking to the legendary author, playwright, screenwriter David Mamet.

I I know Sebastian well.
Listen to him.
He's with us.
Thank you, Mr. President, and I'm with him.
If you support this man, who we need back in the White House more than ever to be safe and to have stability in the world, stand with him.
We have created a yard sign, a t-shirt, a mug with his name and the mug shot from Atlanta and a very simple phrase, Trump 2024.
All that available at SebGorkaStore.com.
That's S-E-B-G-O-R-K-A-Store.com.
And more important than that, please support him directly at DonaldJTrump.com.
He wrote, most recently, after the events in Israel, an article which was originally entitled, Jude de Gauss.
If you know your history, you know what that means.
It was retitled, How Democrats Betrayed the Jews.
I'm posting it right now on my Twitter feed.
Please read it.
But now let's talk about his latest book.
the foundation of a new project. It is entitled, Everywhere an Oink Oink, an
Embittered, Dyspeptic and Accurate Report of 40 Years in Hollywood. David Mamet, can
you give us, everybody needs to order the book right now, everybody needs to read
it, can you give us the, what do we call it, the Washington elevator pitch of your
40 years in Hollywood?
It's that there are the people at the bottom who, we bring our virginity and get off of
And there are people who come up to us and they say, hey, how would you like to leave your talent, your virginity, your youth, your mind with me?
And I'm going to take good care of it.
So as I say, in the book, I was there for 40 years on the sets as a director and as a writer and in the boardrooms.
And it's like being in a squad car or being in a marriage.
You don't know unless you were there.
So I was there, and so I'm looking back.
But I have to warn everybody, as much as I would like to sell a lot of books, this book may not be for you, because it's a lot of salacious humor in it.
There's a lot of off-color jokes.
There's a lot of cartoons, which I'll tell you my favorite of my... I didn't fall for the cartoons.
One of the cartoons is an advertisement for the movie Showa, and it says, No one will be admitted during the last four million years.
Wow.
If you know what Shoah means, you get the meaning of that cartoon.
We've got a minute left with you.
Please follow this gentleman at David Mamet.
The book is Oink, Oink!
An Embittered, Dyspeptic and Accurate Report of 40 Years in Hollywood.
Mr. Mamet, last question and we'd love to get you back for a longer chat.
Is it salvageable or do we have to build a new Hollywood?
Well, it's all over because... I think of it like the Erie Canal.
The Erie Canal brought a lot of commerce to towns along the Erie Canal, but when the railroad came in, it didn't make any difference.
There was no way to lure those people back, because they were taking the railroad.
So Hollywood existed to create and distribute films to movie theaters.
Since that's over, there's a whole new paradigm, which is doing things in its own way.
And, you know, they'll eventually figure it out.
And they've already proved that the stuff they're doing can just be as wretched as the stuff the studios turned out.
The Inside Story, after 40 years, is one of the most successful, greatest directors and playwrights and screenwriters we have.
We salute you, David Mamet.
Next up, can we secure the Middle East and Israel without dealing with Iran?
Stay with us one on one.
Thanks for watching!
Subscribe to our channel for more videos!
Stay with us one on one.
You You
You First there's one condition
One condition for anything that could happen and the good things that could happen once this war is over.
And that condition is that Hamas must be destroyed.
As our good friend Lord Conrad Back pointed out, maybe a reference for you Latin scholars to Cartago de Lenda Est.
Carthage must be destroyed.
In this case, it's not ancient history.
We are living historic times.
That is the Prime Minister of Israel, Bibi Netanyahu, a former combatant commander, saying Hamas must be destroyed.
Well, is it possible?
Let's unpack that with one of the wisest individuals I know on that benighted region of the world.
He's a colleague of mine from Newsmax.
We've known each other for rather a long time.
Professor Waleed Faris, welcome in studio.
Thank you, Professor.
Thank you.
It's been a long time, I think, at National Defence University.
Exactly.
At least a few decades.
At least two decades.
At least two decades.
A few years after 9-11.
Yeah, absolutely, absolutely.
And after 9-11, once I started teaching counter-terrorism for the Defense Department, one of the key texts was Future Jihad, a seminal work written by our guest Waleed Faris.
Please check it out if you want to understand the basics terrorist strategies against the West.
It's a seminal work.
However, he more recently has written a book, Iran, An imperialist republic and US policy, which is sadly of great relevance.
Let's start with that clip from the Prime Minister, Professor.
Hamas must be destroyed.
Is it possible?
We are talking about not just house-to-house fighting, we are talking about tunnel-to-tunnel fighting.
When the ground troops go in, this will be like Fallujah on steroids, no?
Absolutely.
Fallujah and many other examples as well.
We're looking at two options.
Option one is called the military option.
You're going to go and dismantle Hamas, meaning crush militarily Hamas, and then reorganize the area.
The other option, which would be a partial advance inside Gaza, And then another third party would say, I will take care of the rest.
We're going to develop this, because I have had some diplomatic sources telling me what could happen if the Israelis move in.
Let me say it right now.
In order to limit the civilian casualties, and in order to allow Israel to move on other fronts, because Hezbollah may start in the north.
In the north.
And then, of course, Iran controlling southern Syria.
Maybe, maybe the members of the Abraham Accords Finally, finally we'll wake up.
But they need a lot of pressure.
And they need an administration different than this one.
But even with this administration, we'll say, OK, we will move into the south of Gaza militarily.
They will move in.
We are a peace force, but we won't accept Hamas.
So like Jordanian peacekeepers?
Egypt.
Egypt.
Egypt peacekeepers.
Egypt could easily put five divisions, they have them in the Sinai, and move in.
And remember, Hamas killed many Egyptian military.
Well, the genesis of Hamas is Egyptian, when the land was controlled by Egypt.
Exactly.
They have long memories in that part of the world.
Long memories.
The leadership are not going to be excited about it, but they know if they don't get Hamas to be dismantled, Hamas is going to go to Egypt.
It's going to go to Saudi.
And all these beautiful projects in Egypt and Saudi and the UAE will be harmed.
So can I react?
This is a very exciting idea, and of course it's coming from you, I'm not surprised.
But here's my problem.
The Abraham Accords are a relic of our administration, the Trump administration.
You are, you are.
And the idea that this administration, that has been dismantling what we created, not only would use that headline or that masthead of the Abraham Accords, but secondly, would have the requisite leadership.
I don't want to be a wet blanket on your superb proposal, but I like it, but wouldn't it require strong leadership from the White House professor?
Professor, you're the first and strongest and smartest author of a reaction to this project.
This project is in kitchens.
It's been cooked.
There is nothing yet.
And I was on Al Arabiya now, and they asked me about the reaction of the Arab world.
It's most likely because I've lived the same situation, witnessed the same situation in Beirut, in Lebanon, when there was a multinational force going in, but it was only after Israel moved in.
That's a big difference.
Israel is not going to wait for the formation of an Arab.
But by saying, OK, I'm moving in, I'm dismantling Hamas.
If you want peace, you have to pay the price with me as well, by sending your forces to actually co-manage or actually, you know, end the jihadist roots.
So let's dissect this idea, which I think is very exciting.
What does Egypt think today under Sisi?
What does Jordan, that has 600,000 refugees, what do they think about Hamas?
What does Egypt, what does Jordan think about this organization today that is right there in their midst?
Well, first of all, Professor, before this incident, before the terrible terror attack against the Negev in Israel, Egypt was very clear in saying Hamas has been meddling in our country, in their country, has been funding the jihadists and training the jihadists in Sinai.
You know, the Egyptian people, the media, they dislike Hamas.
But when this happened and the bombardment started in Gaza, the Muslim Brotherhood networks and media funded by the suspects in the region have been bombarding the mind of Egyptians, of Arabs that Who's side would the Egyptian people be on?
Are they falling for the narrative?
Are they falling for the fake news?
So there is a change in the narrative, but deep down in the government and the administration,
they want to finish from these jihadi forces.
Whose side would the Egyptian people be on?
Are they falling for the narrative?
Are they falling for the fake news?
Or is Sisi powerful enough?
President Sisi is not coming strong against the bombardments, but he's saying this has
Which means, if you translate, I cannot, as a government, keep seeing this.
So, either you're going to go in and end this matter, or we will have to find a solution.
And that's a big army.
Egypt has capabilities.
Huge capabilities, they have been trained by us for many many years, they have excellent relationship military to military with the Israelis, especially when Egypt was threatened by the Jihadists and by the Muslim Brotherhood.
Have we forgotten in 2013 there was a huge demonstration by civil society in Egypt against the Brotherhood?
So that's a guarantee.
Now the problem, you started by a very important point, this administration.
This administration seems to me, I mean, you could ask me any question because you have answered them already in the past.
They don't have a plan.
No.
The only plan they have is the Iran deal.
The Iran deal is actually, what is it, delaying the administration from doing anything.
Well, and the other plan was, which is unbelievable, is to fly the president into Israel to actually delay the Israeli response because you can't send troops into the Gaza when Air Force One is landing at the airport in Tel Aviv.
Absolutely.
There is a quasi-scandal happening now.
I tweeted about it.
So, the administration asked the Israelis, do not go in.
But then gave a reason, which is, we need to place a dome over our forces deployed in Syria and Iraq.
And my question is, you have not done so?
Have you not done so?
Of course your intellect... There have been 14 attacks, this is unclassified, 14 attacks against US forces since the attacks in Israel on October 7th.
Yes, and very, very serious.
So now, we're going to wait for that dawn to happen.
I don't know about the Israelis if they're going to... Probably they will engage in a ground operation, as you know, but they're going to start dismantling from the air, whatever they can.
What about Jordan?
Jordan has accepted hundreds of thousands of refugees in the last 20 years from Syria and they have a very large population of Palestinian Arabs.
The Queen made this statement yesterday saying, you know, Israel has to stop this.
Where does Jordan stand in all of this?
Let's go back one inch and then back to Jordan.
So Egypt already, President Sisi said, I don't want the Palestinians to flood the Sinai.
Because if they flood the Sinai, there are going to be thousands of jihadists among them.
Jordan the same.
Jordan even more critical.
Egypt is a 90 million people country.
Jordan is a few million.
Both of them do not want the solution of the Palestinians leave because the jihadists are all over with them.
Which means, which convinces me, that if this administration does its job, they can talk to Egypt, they can talk to Jordan to form this multinational force and probably allow the Israelis to start the campaign and the Arabs will have to end it.
I love this idea.
This is why we invite individuals of such sterling reputation as Waleed Faris, PhD, on the show.
He's the author, most recently, of Iran, Get It Right Now, An Imperialist Republic and U.S.
Policy.
The classic text, if you want to understand the broader threat, is future jihad, terrorist strategies against the West.
I'm Sebastian Gawker.
This is America First.
The book that propelled me to the White House to end up as strategist to the President was my first book.
Defeating Jihad.
It is basically a summation of everything I did for the U.S.
military, U.S.
law enforcement, and the intelligence community.
It is sadly, like the professor's work, relevant again.
It is available with all of my works, why we fight the war for America's soul, at our website, SebGorkaStore.com, with other America First items.

As a first responder to this, what was done to these people of southern Israel?
Well, I don't want to get people scared from what I'm saying, but I saw beheaded bodies, I saw body parts.
There is one of my friends who was in Kfar Azzam.
He told me that he found in one house a husband and wife and two children.
They killed the husband first.
They took his eyes out.
I saw the body by myself.
They took the eyes out.
And they cut the breast of the woman.
And they cut the leg of the girl.
That's the family that I saw with my own eyes.
That's a first responder in Israel talking to the very brave Trey Yinks war correspondent.
Israel shouldn't have had to do what it did on Tuesday, which is to show foreign correspondents the footage, the body camera footage of what Hamas did to those women, those children, those kibbutz inhabitants.
But they had to, to show the truth of jihad in the modern age.
What do we do about it?
Whatever your politics are, whatever you think about war 8,000 miles away, we should help those who are at least suffering non-militarily, assist them.
We have joined forces with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, and some
of you have been incredibly generous, helping this organization get emergency aid to the
families in Israel who need your support.
If you want to do a godly thing, if you want to do something beautiful to help our cousins
in Israel, please call them right now.

Please help these families.
Be as generous as you can.
Professor Faris, let's do a little bit more of a survey in the region around Israel, a couple of countries we haven't discussed, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Qatar, which is a bad actor.
Talk to us about first, do you believe the reports That this seemingly suicidal decision by Hamas to kill over 1,400 Israelis, which will bring the might of the IDF down on their heads, was done to simply scupper, to sabotage the impending improvement of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Could that have been the strategic calculus?
That's a great point you're making, Professor.
It is part of it.
It's absolutely a part of it.
Hamas is not going to do an action of this size, knowing that, you know, hell is going to come on earth because of that.
I mean, the massive killing, it's a systematic killing of individuals.
It's not bombardment and casualties.
But they're targeting key Hamas individuals.
No, I'm talking about what Hamas has done.
What Hamas did.
Yeah, it's not a military action.
It's targeting civilians.
It's killing civilians, but with methods that we just saw right now.
Unbelievable.
That is a psychological breakdown that the jihadists, the extreme jihadists are bringing in their society.
And that's going to be a problem even after the liberation of Gaza from those jihadists.
Extreme, extreme jihadists.
This is not even Muslim Brotherhood.
Muslim Brotherhood will bring prisoners, take a picture and start the hostage.
This was terrible.
This isn't political.
This is beyond political.
This is beyond political.
Political are the instructions.
The execution is beyond.
It's something we have to be very careful about.
And this is a small warning to the West.
We have in the West jihadists of this sort because they come from the same ideology.
So be ready.
We'll talk about what it means here, or in Australia, as we saw the gas the Jews chant outside the Opera House, the Swedes being killed in Belgium, the two tourists, the French teacher being knifed by a Chechen jihadi after the Israeli attack.
We'll talk about that later in the hour.
This is the luxury of having a guest in studio for the long-form discussion.
But what else could be part of that strategic calculus?
So, sabotage The closening of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
What else could be in the calculation beyond just apocalyptic jihadism?
That's a good term to use now.
The Iranian regime basically is in control of these operations.
We know that.
The battlefield of Gaza, battlefield of southern Lebanon, battlefield of southern Syria, the Anbar area and it is all headquartered in Iran.
Now, one of the reasons, when the Iranian regime acts and opens a battlefield, they have multiple reasons.
One of the reasons, and I thank you for asking me this because these are the two reasons.
I just was briefing the House of Lords yesterday via TV.
Wonderful.
And they asked the same question, and prior to that, but that was prior to the operation, members of the U.S.
House.
So, one is, immediate, is Saudi Arabia.
Because if Saudi Arabia signs off and seals off the Abraham Accord, Iran is isolated.
Then it's done for them.
Second, even more important... Because of the importance of Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia.
You remember, when you were in the administration, the Riyadh Convention?
The second most important speech.
After Warsaw, I believe it was President Trump's second most important speech because he said in front of the heads of states of 52 Arab... 52 Arab Muslim leaders.
He said, you need to deal with the jihadism in your mosques, in your societies.
Absolutely.
And you and I contributed, you know, through our remarks to the campaign and so on and so forth.
So, the Saudis coming closer to the Israelis, and the Saudis are very careful, they would not sign off quickly because they have a lot of responsibilities, is the beginning of the isolation of Iran.
So bringing down the Saudi-Israeli agreement, it's not just about trade, it's about essential matters, is one.
The second, probably one inch more important, The regime has been facing the revolution.
Inside Iran, those youth and women were moving slowly.
Taking off the hijab, resisting the theological police.
You cannot reverse it anymore.
So a question of time.
So to flee, to dodge.
What's happening inside their country, and that's not the first case in history.
If you want to dodge a revolution... You distract the people.
This is a decoy.
I call it the mega decoy.
Opening another battlefield.
Actually, Hezbollah has done it on a smaller size in 2006.
In 2005, there was the Cedars revolution in Lebanon.
They rose against Assad and Hezbollah.
And what did Hezbollah do in 2006, in the summer?
Open the front with Israel.
That's what Iran has done throughout.
I have so many questions to ask.
I'm constantly writing down new ones.
I'll try and get to as many of them as possible.
In the meantime, the most recent book from our guest is Iran, an imperialist republic and US policy.

And based on what I've seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team.
But there's a lot of people out there who are not sure.
The world's looking.
We visualize a value set like the United States does in other democracies, and they're looking to see what we're going to do.
Leadership?
Anyone out there?
You dare call that leadership?
Calling the disgusting, diabolical terrorists the other team?
Like this is a foosball match?
Sadly, that man bears the title of President of the United States.
We will continue our discussion momentarily, but if you enjoy what you hear, what we provide for you from America First, please support those who make it possible.
Great patriots, friends of President Trump like Mike Lindell.
He's celebrating the 20th year, the anniversary of MyPillow, the pillow that never gets hot, never loses shape.
More than 81 million sold.
Yes, they are that good.
I rest my head every night on a MyPillow.

So part of the calculus for what Hamas did is to sabotage relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Talk to us about one other country we haven't mentioned in the region.
Talk to us about the importance of Qatar.
The one country, Qatar, today is playing again a new role, mediating the issue of the hostages.
But remember, Qatar, you and I know it for years, was supporting the Muslim Brotherhood around the region.
But Qatar has special relations with the United States and therefore it's positioned now to discuss the matter on how to release the hostages.
In the first place, Hamas has actually grabbed the hostages to be able to negotiate them and gave that pass like a volleyball back to Qatar to start the negotiations in the goal of gaining time for Hamas.
Because Israelis and us, United States and other Europeans are very sensitive in terms of hostages.
So time is what Hamas will gain.
Is the current situation The consequence of these attacks, does it mean the death of the Abraham Accords or could they be resurrected under a second Trump administration?
It's like Lazarus, but some force can bring it back.
But it could come back?
I don't think this administration can do it.
It's too short, it's too chaotic.
So a next administration, without going into our politics, if it has that vision, yeah, it could bring it back.
Why?
Because the population in the Middle East, they want an accord like this.
Call it Abraham Accord, call it anything accord, but they want peace and they want progress.
But is it not fair to say that after an event which is the largest taking of Jewish life since the Holocaust, that a two-state solution is now impossible?
It could be a three-state solution with Gaza, you know, with the Arabs, the West Bank will vote its own government, and of course... But they haven't had an election in Gaza for, what, 12 years now?
For many years, but the last election they had, actually, some people were tweeting, it was a coup.
They went and massacred the Fatah, the actual mainstream organization, so... It wasn't an election, it was a takeover.
It's a takeover.
So, can those territories ever function as states?
I mean, we talk about the society, I call it the Jihadi society.
When you raise young boys from the age of zero to hate Jews and want to destroy Israel, can these regions ever function as modern states?
They need one generation, whereby moderate Arab countries Or society.
Impose secularity, like Ataturk?
Ataturk is one form, that's great that you gave the example, but make sure to organize and reform the schools.
I mean, you see kids, five-year-old, six-year-old, Jihad, his family telling him yes, but there are other elements inside Gaza.
Strong enough?
No.
To counter?
No, they cannot bring down the regime of Hamas.
The Arabs need to Other states need to create an environment where those non-radical forces could come to an ascendance?
In one generation.
What we have done in Japan and in Germany after World War II against two fascist regimes... But that was with complete control by... I mean, the Americans wrote the Constitution of Germany, wrote the Constitution of Japan.
The Arabs should move in.
I'm very clear here.
But do they want to?
Professor, that's the question.
Let me say it very clearly on camera.
They do not trust this administration.
I don't either!
Because he could put them in and then he would say cease fire and withdraw.
The Israelis as well would move in.
Because what controls our foreign policy are the billions of dollars of the Iran Deal.
That's next.
What a perfect... I didn't even... We didn't coordinate.
Mind control.
It's just telepathy.

Would you believe what's happened to the USA in the last three years?
But I will immediately reinstate all sanctions on the murderous Iranian regime.
You have to do that.
Do we have a deal?
If you will not enforce sanctions against Iran, then you do not stand with Israel.
It's that simple.
It's all about Iran.
It's not about these others.
It's all about Iran.
They know everything that's going on.
They probably laid out the game plan.
And Joe Biden won't do it.
I wonder how much money he's receiving from Iran, do you think?
Gets a lot from China.
That we know.
It's a good question if he's getting money from Russia, Kazakhstan, China.
Is he getting any from Iran?
As a certain senator from Illinois once said, elections have consequences.
No wars for four years under President Trump.
Just look at the last three years.
I'm Sebastian Gorka.
This is America First, one-on-one.
It's going to get worse before it gets better.
The election.
Wow.
It's 14 months, 13 months away.
What happens when next time it's not baby formula we run out of here in America?
What if it's the staples of life?
Are you aware the local grocery store has less than 72 hours worth of supplies in the back after that?
You're on your own.
The shelves are empty.
Do you have a plan B?
Can you provide for your family?
I can.
I've gone with the biggest and best in the business.
It's my Patriot Supply.
Right now, 25% off their one-month kit of food that stays fresh for 25 years.
If you're a father, if you're a husband, if you're a grandfather, it is your duty to always provide.
Be that person.
As they say, it's better to have it and not need it.
They need it and not have it.
Go right now to preparewithgorka.com for that massive discount.
That's preparewithgorka.com.
All right, he said it there.
It's about Iran.
Proudest moment of my time in the White House was telling the president, he knew it already, but he asked me and Steve Bannon to inform the cabinet why the Iran deal, Obama's Iran deal had to be killed.
And after we did that briefing, the president killed it.
Can that part of the world ever have a semblance of stability whilst Iran is an Islamic theocracy professor?
No, that's the short answer.
Under this regime, the Khomeinist regime, the Islamic Republic regime, they have an agenda.
The agenda is clear.
It's not hidden.
It's not mafia that's preparing stuff.
It's open.
They are in control.
Remember, we're in 2023.
They're in control of Iraq with all what we have done in Iraq, all the sacrifices.
They're in control of Syria.
And they are in control under Hezbollah, a formidable, dangerous organization of Lebanon.
And down south, in Yemen, they are in control of a part of Yemen which actually controls the access to the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean.
That's a lot!
That's actually a smaller-sized Soviet Union at the end of the day.
But here's my challenge.
You literally wrote the book.
It's your most recent book, Iran.
Everybody needs to go and get it right now.
An imperialist republic and US policy.
But is it fair to say that whilst it has this incredibly impressive record of indirectly controlling parts of the world, of leveraging proxies like Hezbollah, like Hamas, itself It is a paper tiger, because if it tried to go to war with Israel or tried to go to war with America, it wouldn't last three minutes.
Is it fair to say it's a paradoxical regime?
The strength of the Iran regime is not just by having those militias.
It's by having the control over our foreign policy.
Yes.
Now, wait a minute.
What you have broadcast now was important.
The $150 billion that were sent to that regime, what do you think the regime did with it, in addition to purchasing weapons and funding militias?
Purchasing influence in Europe, here, from academia, to media, to think tanks.
To Obama's chief Iran negotiator, Rob Malley.
Absolutely, and I'm sure you have mentioned in your discussions the fact that we discovered that top-ranking national security advisors, Iranian-Americans, are working with the regime, and nothing was done.
Chief of Staff of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations is one of those individuals today in the Pentagon.
Today.
So when they message each other, let me give that example for your audience.
When the U.S.
administration speaks with the Iranians, who speaks with the Iranians?
These guys, the analysts.
Because they have told the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iran, what can we do for you?
We're here for you.
We're inside the building and we're here for you.
For you.
So they know that our aircraft... I'm going to say something more... It's like that horror movie.
You know that horror movie?
It is.
It's very odd.
The phone call is coming from inside the building.
You know that line?
Of course.
It's an old series on James Bond and what have you.
So now you are in Iran and getting information about our movements, not just the political movements, strategic movements.
With that security clearance level, you could get anything you want.
So what is the future?
People need to read your book.
Look, it's a millennia-old civilization.
It's not Iran, it's Persia.
It's a very proud civilization.
It's only been theocratically controlled since 79.
What is the way out of this?
During the Cold War, Reagan, Thatcher didn't invade other countries to take over communist countries.
It assisted the underground movements.
I mean, you know that!
My father's type of dissidents, Solidarnosc in Poland, on and on and on.
Is this the potential model for Persia?
It could have been, should have been, and actually now we have a standing revolution.
The crazy thing that is happening is, instead of supporting them, we are funding the regime that is oppressing them.
I mean, the six billion dollars?
If they use one billion against their own population, they will crush the revolution.
We have to stop funding them one, and we have to expose them and say that they are anti-democratic regime.
How close did it get?
I mean, I'm biased.
You can say I'm biased because I was inside the building, but when we were in the White House with our sanction regime, the strongest it ever had, We literally brought Iran to its knees.
In one year, they lost 38% of the value of the stock market in Tehran.
How close did we get to a good result for the people of Persia under Trump?
You got so close.
Two huge decisions.
Number one is to withdraw from the Iran deal.
Number two is to designate the President of Iran.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard, a terrorist organization, it shook off their foundation.
And I would have projected that a second administration would have gone all the way.
And I think that the Iran regime has used some of the funds, some of the funds with influence capability to fight the administration here.
That's my theory.
All right.
He wrote it down for you in his latest book, Iran, Get It Today, An Imperious Republic and U.S.
Policy.

White statues!
That wasn't the West Bank.
That wasn't Gaza.
That was outside the beautiful Sydney Opera House in Australia.
Muslims chanting, gas the Jews!
But it's not just the Antipodes, as we've reported here on America First, on my show, on Newsmax.
We have young Americans Tearing down the posters of the children, the hostages, at Boston University on the streets of New York.
Professor, we only have a few minutes left, but you mentioned this half an hour ago, and this is really important.
Jihadism isn't just something that affects the Middle East, is it?
No, it affects the world.
Actually, Foreign Minister of UAE, Sheikh Abdullah, and the current Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, warned us, it's on TV, it's online, that the most extreme jihadists are not going to come from the Middle East.
It's going to come from the West.
Because those jihadists have migrated, actually the Europeans opened their ports, and of course here we're opening our borders.
We got them in.
And what is strange about that stream of jihadism, it is With no limitation.
There is no political limitation.
So we're talking about a mutation of extremism.
It's a la Khmer Rouge.
Right.
It has the potential to be even more violent than that which has political limitations in the Middle East.
It has government limitations.
Even if you go to the Taliban, they still need some stuff.
This is beyond the Taliban.
Beyond the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Even Iran wants to negotiate in fancy hotels in Vienna, in Switzerland.
Absolutely, these are regimes.
They are against us, but these are regimes.
Now, this is a wave that nobody can control.
It was created by those madrasas, it was created by broadcast, and it was created by money we sent to NGOs, including to Gaza.
The European Parliament is investigating hundreds of millions of dollars that have been invested in Gaza Islamic University.
No control, nothing.
Of course you're going to have mutations like these.
You remember Anwar al-Awlaki had an American passport?
Yes, and you're going to have a lot of people with all kinds of passports being jihadists.
It's international at this point in time.
Wake up, dear friends.
He's been telling us for decades, starting with his book on jihad.
