Sebastian Gorka FULL SHOW: Three US soldiers killed, as Biden administration does nothing
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
the the
A brutal killer, one who has caused so much hardship and death, has violently been eliminated.
He will never again harm another innocent man, woman, or child.
He died like a dog.
He died like a coward.
The world is now a much safer place.
God bless America.
Thank you.
October 2019.
The head of ISIS, al-Baghdadi, killed by Delta Force JSOC and members of our Special Operations Air Community.
Died like a dog.
The leader of an organization that had taken over from Al-Qaeda after the loss of Bin Laden and created the most successful jihadi insurgency of the modern age with a quote-unquote caliphate that spanned multiple nations in multiple regions of the world to include Nigeria with Boko Haram becoming an adherent.
He was hunted down in Syria and killed like a dog.
The most dangerous terrorist the world had ever seen.
We did the same with Qasem Soleimani, the director, the commander of Iran's proxy forces, who was visiting the Prime Minister of Iraq.
And what did we do in the Trump administration?
To send a message to the mullahs, the murderous, bloodthirsty mullahs in Iran, We turned him into red mist with a drone that is armed not just with explosives but with rotating razor blades that turned him into mincemeat.
He had to be identified by one of his rings.
One of the few things left intact after he was shredded into pieces.
A man who was planning the attack of hundreds of U.S.
servicemen.
This weekend, after more than a hundred attacks on our military in the Middle East, since the October 7th slaughter of the innocents by Hamas, by jihadis, again, in Israel, three of our war fighters, two men and a brave woman, were murdered by Iran, by a drone strike.
Where were they?
Were they hostages in Gaza?
Were they on a battlefield in Syria?
No.
They were in Jordan.
Now this is personal to me.
I have very close ties to Jordan after my time in the Defense Department.
In fact, I had as students the King of Jordan's sister.
Princess Aisha, Brigadier, excuse me, General Aisha, was one of my students.
And one of the greatest counter-terrorism professionals I ever met.
General Araf Al Zaban was also one of my students.
The commander of the 31st Battalion, one of the best counter-terrorism units in the world.
Which, by the way, the King was also commander of.
I've spent time in Jordan as well.
In Christmas of 2015, you can see a photograph of my daughter in the biggest refugee camp in the world at that time.
A camp stretching as far as the eye can see, full of Syrians fleeing war.
And we were invited there to see what our friends in Jordan were doing.
Jordan is our closest ally in the Middle East, after Israel.
And we spent lots of time.
We were invited by the royal family, by the princess, to the Special Forces Operations Training Center.
Casotic.
King Abdullah's Special Operations Training Center with Brigadier Al Zaban and his colleagues, my son, my nephew, my wife, my daughter.
We saw the facilities where they hold the annual Special Forces Special Operators International contest.
The Boeing in the middle of the desert that is used for hostage rescue scenarios.
My young nephew from the UK was taught by the Special Forces on how to handle a sidearm.
That nation should be safe for American troops to be stationed in, but it's not.
Three of our warfighters were murdered.
And what's the response from this administration?
The man who was a disgrace to the Navy uniform he once wore, Kabul Kirby, said this, play cut.
Well Mika, no question there's going to be a response and you heard that from the president
We will respond.
But as we've done in the past, we're going to do it in a time and a manner of our choosing.
We'll be careful, we'll be deliberate about this, and the President will make the right decisions at the right time.
We're certainly not going to telegraph punches to the Iranians or to these groups that they're backing.
If we were in the White House, the people responsible for that attack would be dead by now.
We wouldn't say, we'll do something about it.
We will decide what's appropriate.
We didn't talk.
We acted.
When 300 Russians were running around Syria, destabilizing the region, we killed them.
When chemical weapons were about to be used again against civilians by the Assad regime, we didn't invade.
We deployed 52 cruise missiles and turned that airbase into a sheet of glass.
We sent a message to dictators around the world, cross that line and we come down on you like the hammers of hell.
The world is on the precipice, my friends.
And I'd like my fellow Americans, who are conservatives, who love America, to understand what we did in the White House under President Trump.
I would like people like Candace Owens to appreciate The reality of the world.
And not to tweet things such as, Generation 9-11 has grown up and we aren't falling for this anymore.
Our world has not been made safer, better or more secure by these never-ending war crusades.
That's as may be, but here's my response to you and anyone who says a response is not demanded of America.
Not all violence is inappropriate, Candace.
Unless, of course, you believe America doesn't have enemies who wish to destroy us.
We didn't invade other countries, not for four years.
Because that's not what we believe.
America first doesn't mean neoconservatism put first.
But when we see bad things happen that endanger our interests or the interests of our friends, we will kill evil actors.
Because sometimes foreigners must die.
And when you kill our servicemen, I don't care why they're there!
That's not an excuse to kill them!
Who the hell do you think you are?
DMing me saying, oh well, what were they there to do with in the first place?
I don't care.
That's not my responsibility.
I didn't send them there, but they're still Americans, like the Americans who were taken hostage as civilians by Hamas, who are still being kept hostages as that senile old cretin in the White House bumbles his way to the election.
It is time to deal death to death dealers.
That's what we did in the Trump administration.
But don't hold your breath until January of next year.
January the 21st.

Mic's off.
Mic's off.
I'm going to be doing a lot of work on the next couple of weeks.
Bye.
What is this going to turn into a civil war?
I mean, you've got the Texas rights versus federal rights.
Both sides with guns!
And we believe, constitutionally, we are right.
We have a right to defend our citizens.
We have a right to defend this country.
And we're just doing the job.
This whole idea of Shelby Park, that they would come there, is just ludicrous.
Look, these young men and women who serve our National Guard and our DPS, these are the best of the best.
Why would he want to send anyone down to confront them?
I'm glad they stepped down, but they need to do the job.
And the only reason he's paying attention now is because of the election in November.
Never a truer word, our friend Maria Bartiromo with Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick of Texas on the standoff with the Feds.
We will analyze it and what could possibly be the resolution with our first guest of the day.
But first things first, yes, it is an election year and we have to be fighting fit.
Are you at the top of your game or have you given up on being your svelte former self?
For 20 years, that's where I was.
I was carrying a little bit of excess baggage.
A little spare tyre around the middle.
I'd lose weight and then regain it almost instantly.
Until I met Dr. Ashley Lucas and her amazing team and my PhD weight lost.
42 pounds in just a few months.
My wife lost 36.
Our colleague Mike Gallagher lost 53 pounds and kept it off.
Now Dennis Prager is on the program.
Mr G is on the program.
Find out for yourself how amazing it is.
No scary injections.
No stupid pills to pop.
Just five meals a day that help you burn the fat.
Call right now 864-644-1900.
Dr Lucas's team is waiting for you Or just go to myphdweightloss.com, see the before and after pictures that tell you everything you need to know.
864-644-1900 myphdweightloss.com.
Okay, where are we at with the standoff?
Who's going to blink first?
Let's ask our good friend, legal and political analyst extraordinaire, the author of a brand new book everyone should have on their shelf, the Constitution of the United States and other patriotic
documents. You see him with regularity on Fox News. Greg Jarrett, happy new year. Sebastian, same
to you. Thanks for having me back.
So, I look at this from a kind of strategic perspective and I look at,
I don't want there to be a civil war.
I don't want shots to be fired.
But I look at the might of Texas, and I look at how few people there actually are in the U.S.
Marshals Service or even the FBI, and I think, you know, it's got to be the feds who blink first.
Apparently they did, because Biden gave the governor a deadline on Friday at 1 p.m.
We've breezed through that.
But just the idea that a Federal force is demanding that a state not secure this border.
How absurd is it?
Well, it's ludicrous.
And, you know, I don't think Joe Biden has the mental capacity to understand that.
But those around him have certainly, I think, been counseling him, which is why he appears to be backing off.
From a legal standpoint, the clip you played of the lieutenant governor, he's 100% right.
And Patrick, Article 1 says that states have a sovereign interest in protecting their own borders from evasion, invasion.
And that is particularly acute when the president abdicates his sworn duty under Article 4 to protect the states against invasion.
So, you know, the question is, is this an invasion?
Well, when you've got 8 million foreigners overrunning the border, And committing a whole host of crimes and, you know, harming the citizens of Texas and others.
Yeah, I think the answer is yes.
This is a de facto invasion aided and abetted by Joe Biden himself.
Our friend Greg breaks this all down on his webpage TheGregJarrett.com.
The article is, Texas has a constitutional right to halt the calamitous invasion of illegal migrants.
So what happens next?
Does the Supreme Court have to weigh in?
What is your expectation?
Well, it is already being litigated in the courts in some form or fashion, whether it gets to the Supreme Court.
Probably depends on what Biden does next.
Politically, this is a loser for him.
All you have to do is look at the polling data and roughly 70% of Americans are against his policy of not enforcing the border and allowing, you know, millions of foreigners to flow in.
You know, it's unsustainable.
You know, cities that are being inundated with people from Uh, you know, south of our border, can't financially handle it.
But you've also got home intrusions, assaults, property damage, theft, deadly drugs that are killing close to 100,000 young people every year.
Uh, so, you know, he, Joe Biden's on the wrong side of this, and more than anything else, maybe more than inflation in the economy.
This is politically calamitous for Joe Biden.
Is there any legal remedy beyond just quoting the Texas Constitution and saying we're going to do what we need to do to protect our citizens in Texas?
Is there no legal argument for dereliction of duty on behalf of the federal government?
We have Alejandro Mayorkas Who is, you know, in the process of being impeached, but surely isn't there, you know, the good offices of the federal government must be seen to be absolutely executed, but when you're doing the opposite of securing the border, are they in legal jeopardy or does their immunity protect them?
Immunity generally protects them as long as they're following their orders and those come from the chief executive.
I mean, Joe Biden on the first day signed an executive order and unilaterally decided to open the borders to anyone and everyone.
No longer remain in Mexico.
Asylum was expanded so anybody can fraudulently claim it and get it.
And so, you know, this is the policy of Joe Biden.
Ultimately, I mean, I would not go down the road of impeaching Biden in an election year.
I'm on record saying that's the wrong thing to do.
That's election interference.
I think you leave it up to the American public, the voters.
And in a democracy of a constitutional republic, that's the ultimate remedy.
Yeah.
We're talking to Greg Jarrett, TheGregJarrett.com, author of the Constitution and other patriotic documents.

We'll be back with Greg after these messages.
You don't feel like a victim?
I was not thrown on the ground and ravished.
The word rape carries so many sexual connotations.
This was not sexual.
It hurt.
I think most people think of rape as a violent assault.
I think most people think of rape as being sexy.
Let's take a short break.
Think of the fantasies.
We're going to take a quick break.
If you can stick around, we'll talk more on the other side.
You're fascinating to talk to.
Guy, you've got to come in with that.
That is so, so crazy.
All right, come in with that, then I'll do my pillow and then we'll go to Greg.
That and my pillow.
All right.
How's the book doing, Greg?
Oh, it's doing great.
Thanks for asking.
I appreciate your mention of it.
Because it was out for Christmas, right?
Yeah, it came out mid-November, just in time for Christmas sales, so it did quite well.
Good, good, good.
All right, we'll come in with that, and then... Any one of those 15 through 17 would also be good.
Yeah, I'll probably do 16.
I'll tee it up after we come back to Greg.
Oh, Patriot Mobile.
Um, yeah, sorry, Patriot Mobile.
Yeah, yeah, that was my pillow.
Patriot Mobile, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, Patriot Mobile instead of pillow?
Yep.
Okay, yep.
Play 14, 15, 16.
And what is unique about this case is that the jury has now ruled they have found him liable of sexual abuse.
Do you not trust the jury and their findings, Ambassador?
I absolutely trust the jury, and I think that they made their decision based on the evidence.
I just don't think that should take him off the ballot.
So far over the weekend, he has not repeated his defamation of you.
I want to ask, both of you are confident he won't do it again?
What happens if he does?
I can't be confident about anything Donald Trump does.
All options are on the table.
What does that mean?
If we have to bring another case, we'll bring another case.
Oddly enough, the minute I saw him in the courtroom, And Robbie was standing here, and she said, good morning, miss girl.
Would you please spell your name for the court?
And there he is.
And it turns out, he's nothing.
The fear lifted and just went away.
It just was gone, because he's nothing.
He was nothing.
I was terrified all the time.
He is nothing.
He was nothing. I was terrified all the time. He is nothing.
Wow.
The first three times wasn't, you know, clear enough.
Right.
All right, coming in with 20.
Actually, I'm gonna tee up, um, instead of that one, I'm gonna do the, um, the shorter one, 15.
So coming with 20, then Patriot, then 15.
Tee up 15.
Okay.
All righty.
30 seconds.
Silence.
You don't feel like a victim?
I was not thrown on the ground and ravished.
The word rape carries so many sexual connotations.
This was not sexual.
It hurt.
I think most people think of rape as a violent assault.
I think most people think of rape as being sexy.
Let's take a short break.
Think of the fantasies.
We're going to take a quick break.
If you can stick around, we'll talk more on the other side.
You're fascinating to talk to.
Yeah, and you're really creepy, E. Jean Carroll.
So you think rape is sexy?
So why wasn't that brought up in your defamation case?
If you have a cell phone, dear friends, it may be part of the problem in America today.
Why?
Because the big cell phone providers are woke!
They're left wing.
They're not on our side.

We are back with our good friend, first guest of the day, Greg Jarrett.
He's the author, most recently, of the new book, The Constitution and Other Patriotic Documents.
Get it right now.
Greg, it seems as if, what is it, $83.3 million isn't enough.
Here is E. Jean Carroll with her lawyer being asked about what they're going to do in the future.
Cut 15.
So far over the weekend he has not repeated his defamation of you.
I want to ask both of you, are you confident he won't do it again?
What happens if he does?
I can't be confident about anything Donald Trump does.
All options are on the table.
What does that mean?
If we have to bring another case, we'll bring another case.
Bring another case?
What should President Trump be doing right now, Greg?
He should do what his lawyers are already doing, and they are appealing the original verdict, as well as the defamation aspects in the damages portion of the case.
You know, I find several things as a lawyer deeply troubling.
One, that, you know, if you are accused in a court of law doing something and publicly accused as well, seems to me you have a public right to say, I didn't do this.
I've never met this person.
I don't know her.
Without exposing yourself to defamation.
And I just don't think that's defamation.
So that's one of the claims.
The law itself, this was a retroactive law that was passed in the wake of the Me Too movement by the New York legislature that suddenly and magically overnight holds people culpable for something that happened well beyond the statute of limitations that otherwise would have been prohibited.
I think that's a legal basis for challenging the law itself.
And finally, reversible error of other judge.
He didn't allow, for example, what you just played, the videotape with Anderson Cooper, that creepy response by her that rape is sexy, as well as what the defense was going to present is Nearly half a dozen other accusations made by her against others, including former CDS head Les Moonves, that may well have been false.
Establishing a pattern of false accusations.
And what about what Alina Haber detailed afterwards, outside the court, where she said the judge instructed her Occasionally, but not very often.
That troubles me less than the things I've already pointed out.
the judge what President Trump was going to answer so the judge could edit those answers
before they were made.
When is that permissible in a U.S. court, Greg?
Occasionally, but not very often.
That troubles me less than the things I've already pointed out, that the law itself,
I think, is fundamentally flawed, and that the judge committed reversible error by limiting
uh... the defense's ability to try to demonstrate that she's a liar
Yeah.
So I think that's the real basis.
Well, we know what this is all about, especially since the individual bankrolling the case is Reid Hoffman, a well-known left-wing billionaire who's also one of the bankrollers, one of the donors to the Nikki Haley campaign.
Connect the dots, follow the money, and you get the answers.
The book is The Constitution and Other Patriotic Documents.

To the Second Amendment.
They've even backed conservative school-bought candidates who've won in numerous, numerous local races.
They're the good guys.
It's not good.
To fund those who hate America.
The big companies are left doing their work.
When Nancy Pelosi's illegal January 6th committee demanded my cell phone data and my wife's and my children's and my cell phone provider genuflected before the altar of wokeness, I said, that's it!
And I cut the cord and I switched to Patriot Mobile.
Join the good guys today.

you Did you see what he recently said about the West, he wants to see the economy crash this year?
Sitting president.
As I say in my face, bless me father for, I mean, come on man.
What did he just do there?
He called President Trump the sitting president?
Jeff, does that mean that he's QAnon?
That he believes that President Trump is the president?
He's an election denier, and that's the worst thing you can be in this country today.
Ooh, wow.
He should be, like, cancelled from all media, shouldn't he?
Uh, Facebook should take him off, Instagram, everything.
Yeah.
Start putting those tags on there, too, that Trump used to have.
Alright, so you gotta explain this next cut, because I think you had to delete a little bit of it.
So this is E. Jean Carroll, who, um...
She's just a little weird.
Here she's being interviewed.
She's got some cabin in the woods and she's talking about her pets whose names are painted on the cabin.
Eric, play the cut.
This is my shed.
On the door are the lists of my dogs.
Marky, Fortuna de la Spunky, Heidi, Bloody and Hepburn.
What did you have to beep out there, Jeff?
Something that rhymes with lits.
Oh, so it's like female anatomy?
Correct.
So she names her pets after sexual organs?
Yeah, that's a little bit normal, don't you think?
It's totally normal.
Yeah, just wait till you hear the tweets that she posted that I'm going to read out to you that President Trump put on his Truth Social.
Thank you, Jeff, I think.
All right, let's go to your calls.

All right, he was quick on the draw.
First to call in, line one, Dale from Detroit.
Hello, Dr. Gorka.
Hey, happy Monday.
I've got a suggestion.
I think those flag-draped coffins, when they get deplaned, when they land in the United States and they deplane, they deserve a president to be there.
And I know Joe's not going to be there, so I think President Trump should be there.
And I know you have his ear, so I was just making that suggestion.
I love the idea, but that's a military base.
Dover's a military base, so you can't just roll up there, even if you're a former president.
So, you know, he has to be allowed onto the base?
Well, if he can get the permission from the families, maybe.
That's interesting, Dale.
With your permission, can I tweet that idea out?
Absolutely.
God bless.
What a great idea.
Stay on the line, Dale.
Dale can pick whichever t-shirt he wants.
The Retribution 2024 or the Trump Did Nothing Wrong.
He gets to choose his.
What a great suggestion.
I will tweet that out and I will mention your name.
President Trump should be at Dover with the acquiescence of the family members of those who were killed by Iran in Jordan.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant idea.
Sean, New York City, line two.
Good doctor.
I have two comments, and I also have some ideas for the campaign.
I'll try to make it quick.
The first one was on Ms.
Carroll's comment about rape being sexy.
I'm not surprised.
I presume she's a Democrat, so coming from a Democrat, that's not surprising.
It kind of harkens back to the days when the Democrats were the slave masters and they used to, you know, rape their slaves.
But that having been said, she said that it was sexy, so that implicitly is consent, is it not?
Um... I kinda think.
Yeah, maybe, but it's just too weird.
Just too weird.
That said, I have to respectfully disagree with Mr. Jarrett.
They impeached our president so many times on nothing charges, and we need to call out a spade for a spade.
They did everything wrong.
They didn't enforce federal immigration law.
You have to impeach the entire administration.
Impeach the border czar, and impeach Biden, and impeach Mayorkas.
And even if they aren't convicted, We've still put on the record and it can be litigated at the ballot box.
You know, I hate to say this, but I think you're right, Sean.
Playing Marcus of Queensbury rules and saying that the electorate get to choose what they got to choose in 2020.
Yeah, I think you're right, Sean.
So here are the tweets that President Trump found and then posted from E. Jean Carroll on his Truth Social account.
Let me just read one of them out to you.
Sex tip I learned from my dog.
When in heat, chase the male dog until he collapses within exhaustion, then jump him.
Oh, here's another one that kind of negates the whole rape charge.
This is a doozy.
How do you know your unwanted sexual advance is unwanted until you advanced it?
Hmm, I wonder why the judge didn't allow those to be submitted in the trial.
Let's go to Joe in Illinois, line three.
Dr. G. Yeah.
My point is, is that, you know, how can you, you know, claim that, ah, gee, I'm losing my thought process.
You know, there's three American men, brave men, that came back to this country and the President is not going to meet them.
What are you talking about?
The two soldiers and the female soldier who was killed in Jordan?
You talking about that?
Absolutely.
Who says he's not meeting with them?
I heard it on talk radio today.
Oh, do you know who it was?
Because I doubt the White House has made any statement about him not meeting the bodies.
Do you know which show it was?
It's probably Charlie Kirk, you know.
Yeah, I'll have to check with Charlie because I haven't seen anything to that effect.
But thank you, Joe.
More of your calls momentarily.
The number here is 833-33-GORKA.
I don't think I've heard out the phone number in days.
Or weeks.
You guys just know it.
833-334-6752.
Call us.
Sound off on any topic of the day.
That's 833-33-GORKA.
833-334-6752.
Coming to you from the reliefactor.com studios just outside the insolubrious, fetid, rank, malodorous, noisome, what's the last one?
Oh, ghastly swamp that is Washington DC.
Relief actor.
It's real.
It works.
Right now, as we speak, it is liberating over a million Americans from their daily pain.
I am one of them.
But it's not just me.
It's people like Debran from Massachusetts.
Listen to Debran's story.
I just started taking Relief Factor 4 days ago.
My hip pain is gone.
I had a horrible time sleeping because of the pain.
I absolutely love how I am feeling.
Thank you Relief Factor.
That story should be enough for you to order the 3 week quick starter pack right now.
It'll be at your door in 3 days or less.
Take it morning and evening like I do for 3 weeks.
And I promise you, Dr. G's guarantee, by the end of that time, you will know whether it works for you, like it works for me, Debra, and over a million of your fellow Americans.
Just ask yourself a very simple question.
What do you have to lose?
If the only answer to that question is the pain, well then you know what to do.
Write the number down right now.
1-800, the number for relief, or go to relieffactor.com.
That's 1-800-473-5433, relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com.
Mm-hmm.
Thank you.
Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised to hear Jared say that about impeachment.
I know.
Almost 2,000 of you watching.
Nice.
Thanks for tuning in, everybody.
All right, so... Okay, we'll just go straight to calls after... New t-shirt.
New t-shirt?
Mm-hmm Jules 15 in the chat says she read 50 shades of gray too
much Well, she watched CSI.
Or, uh, you mean Law and Order?
Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, Law and Order.
I mean, I've never watched that show.
You wanna play that this segment?
No, I don't have time for that.
Yes, oh bad I just came with that shock in the middle of woods
Looks like something straight out of True Detective.
I know.
And her hair.
I... Oh, man.
I'm gonna go.
Thanks for watching!
America First, MAGA-nificent.
Welcome back dear friends.
It's the latest t-shirt inspired by you.
It's a very simple message.
Donald Trump did nothing wrong.
Get yours today, as well as the 2024 retribution.
So much more, including all of my books at SebGorkaStore.com.
That's S-E-B-G-O-R-K-A-Store.com.
The names have been released of the three Soldiers killed in Jordan.
Sergeant William Rivers, 46, of Georgia.
Specialist Kennedy Sanders, 24, of Georgia.
And Specialist Breonna Moffatt, 23, all of Georgia.
Killed by an Iranian drone.
And the Biden administration has done nothing.
Let's go to John on this topic.
San Jose.
Good afternoon, Doctor.
Yeah.
Trump did nothing wrong.
Correct.
My question, and you might be able to answer that from your time working in the Trump administration, but I don't understand why these troops were in Jordan at Tower 22, their missions described as supporting troops in southern Syria.
As well as the Jordanian, it's an assistant train mission.
We have about 350 soldiers on that base and we've been supporting Jordan since the war on terror.
That's why I train Jordanian officers and that's why we have a handful in Jordan as well.
And I understand that they're there on helping train Jordanians, but The Biden administration and the Defense Department says they were supporting troops in southern Syria.
Correct.
And back towards the end of the Trump administration, President Trump ordered withdrawal of all troops out of Syria.
Well, yeah, but you know what happened at the Pentagon, and we've had people admit this.
I mean, this is the shocking reality of what happened under our administration.
Whether it was former generals, like John Kelly as the chief of staff, who admitted
wanting to undermine every single day the work of the president, or whether it was the
likes of Mark Milley, the most senior uniformed officer in the military, chairman of the Joint
Chiefs, who admitted, even with regards to our greatest foreign enemy, China, he told
General Li in Beijing that if President Trump took any actions against communist China,
he would warn them.
So the idea that we told them to do something doesn't necessarily mean it happened, because we had subversives at the highest level of the Trump administration, even at the cabinet level.
And that's why, second time round, everybody has to be 100% America First, 100% MAGA, and 100% Dedicated to one thing, John.
The mission of the chief executive, the commander-in-chief, who is chosen by the American people.
Unelected bureaucrats who think they get to decide the direction of America is the definition of the deep state.
We have a president for a reason.
He is at the helm of the nation.
And we choose his identity at the ballot box and the electoral college.
Great question.
Thank you, John.
Where did that hour go?
One down, two left, including the manhood hour with a very special guest.
Stay with us here on America First.
█ intellect ████ ███ you
you you
you Oddly enough, the minute I saw him in the courtroom,
And Robbie was standing here and she said, good morning, miss girl.
Would you please spell your name for the court?
And there he is.
And it turns out he's nothing.
The fear lifted and just went away.
It just was gone because he's, he was, he's just, he's, he's nothing.
He was nothing.
I was terrified all the time.
He is nothing.
I know he doesn't like to be in front of millions of people, but let me just ask Guy a very simple question.
Guy, does that woman, Yijin Cao, does she sound normal to you?
Yes or no?
She sounds just like Patrick Bateman from American Psycho.
Oh my gosh.
Nicely done.
Excellent.
We didn't even rehearse that.
Yes, she is a lunatic.
An utter complete lunatic.
And when asked about what she would do with the 83.3 million dollars she's never going to get from President Trump, this is what she said.
Because she's completely normal.
Cut 17.
You said you want to do great things with this $83 million settlement.
Give us an idea about that.
Don't want to waste money.
Well, I do have an idea.
I'd like to give the money to something Donald Trump hates.
Yeah.
A lot of people want to talk about this.
The call board is full.
I will take your call, so don't go anywhere, please.
But I've got to play this next thing because it kind of goes into E. Jean Carroll and just the utter complete mental illness that is the left.
It is.
It's a mental illness.
I know.
Jeff, was it Mike Savage who said it originally that being the left is a mental disorder or something?
Was it him?
It was him and Ann Coulter claims it was her and they used to fight about it all the time.
Of course.
Two stable people.
All right.
Yes, absolutely stable.
They're not geniuses and they're not stable either.
All right.
But it is a mental illness.
So I've never watched this show.
It's Law & Order.
There's like 48 million different spin-offs.
Marissa Hargitay was the star along with that loony left-winger Maloney and I guess they've rebooted it or something.
So let me set this clip up.
The latest episode is about a black man, young kid, who rapes a white woman.
And there's no question, right?
Black woman raped by a White woman, black rapist.
And before it goes to trial, the investigators are talking to the white woman who was raped by a black man.
And this is what the Hollywood scriptwriters wrote for the latest episode of Law & Order.
Play cut.
But Nalaway, Jay Watson raped you.
You think I forgot?
How could I?
This entire trial has been an exercise in reminding me.
And this is your chance to do something about it.
I'm going to.
Believe me.
Because I can.
I can afford therapy.
I have that luxury.
And maybe, one day, I'll be okay.
But if that teenager goes to prison, It may not be.
Ever.
I don't want that!
So the white woman is not going to press charges against the black rapist because he's black because she can afford a therapist.
You may not be able to outdo Guy's answer at the top of the hour but Alex These people are mental, aren't they?
I mean, Hollywood just said if you're black it's okay to rape white women.
Do they think that's going to appeal to anybody?
They're absolutely insane.
I don't know who that would appeal to.
Eric, help me out here.
Like I said, when we played that clip before the show started, I'm old enough to remember a little thing called Me Too.
Yes.
Where, you know, believe all women, heard truth, et cetera, et cetera.
Right.
And in, like, not even what, three-ish years, give or take, now it's, I don't know, if the rapist is black, let him go free.
Jeff, help me out.
I know I'm trying to be logical here when kind of pointless, but what are they doing?
What are they trying to do here?
I'm confused.
I think it's stupid, too, because their base is young women.
So they're gonna think to themselves, oh, so if I get raped, I'm not supposed to press charges?
I'd love to know who these writers are.
Maybe it's some black gay guy.
I'm confused.
I don't know.
Maybe we can find out.
Anyway, if you wanted to understand the stakes of what we're involved in, that's it!
Being raped by a black guy if you're a white woman, that's okay.
That's what we have to stop now in America.
They're insane!
It is a psychiatric condition!
It's time to take back the country.
Get involved politically.
Alright, let's stay on the lunacy that is E. Jean Carroll.
Let's go to line one.
Columbus, Ohio.
George, happy Monday.
Happy Monday, Dr. Gorka.
Hey.
How's that popcorn tasting?
I know mine's extra tasty right now.
This is hilarious.
I'm buying shares.
I'm buying lots of shares in popcorn, my friend.
And seriously, couldn't they have picked someone better?
I mean, if you look back in Donald Trump's history of who he's dated and who he's married, they're all supermodels.
This woman looks like Gollum's mother.
Right.
And there's that moment in that video deposition, I don't know if you've seen it, George, where he just says to the person deposing him, who's a woman as well, said, you know what?
She's not my type.
And don't take any offense.
You're not my type either.
I mean, that's Donald Trump.
It's like, he just tells the truth.
Right.
Thank you.
Thank you, George.
Of course, it has nothing to do with reality.
All right.
On this topic as well, Nancy, Philadelphia.
Happy Monday, Nancy.
Hi, Dr. Gorka.
Oh, what a lovely voice.
Hello.
I hope that you're sitting down.
I usually do my radio show sitting down.
Well, you are talking to an actual victim of rape.
Oh, God bless.
So it is disgusting, number one, that the left-wing mainstream media is stating that Donald Trump's been convicted of rape.
It's a lie.
And number two, Ms.
Carroll has no credibility whatsoever after saying that rape is sexy.
I guarantee you, it is not.
And I worked with a group of women who were survivors of rape And they have been so severely damaged, in particular, emotionally, that many of them have never been able to recover.
I completely believe everything you say about the horrors, the tragedy of rape, and the sad thing is I'm not sure everybody concurs with you when it comes to whether or not E. Jean Carroll is credible, but I'm just curious, as a survivor, Nancy, will you explain to me, or just respond, when you see a TV show that ostensibly is incredibly successful, say that A white woman will be okay if she's raped because she can afford a psychiatrist, therefore it's important not to prosecute the black rapist.
Do you understand that line of argumentation in a popular culture product like Law & Order?
Oh, that is ridiculous.
And the same group of women who claim, you know, pro-abortion folks, that my body, my choice.
And they remained silent when women and girls in Israel were viciously raped and murdered, and they had no choice about how their body was impacted.
Nancy, thank you for calling.
Will you stay on the line?
I'd like you to choose whatever you'd like as a show of gratitude from our website.
Jeff, Nancy gets to pick whatever she wants and thank you for calling in on such a difficult and serious personal topic.
Squeezing one more call, Judy Brooklyn!
Welcome, Judy.
I wasn't going to say this, but you should know I fought off an attacker, and it's not pleasant, it's not sexy, it is actually violent, and it's scary.
You mean rape is bad?
E. Jean Carroll got it wrong?
Are you kidding?
Someone who wants to force themselves in?
Are you kidding me?
I'll tell you the story another time because this is more important, okay?
Yes, go.
I'm calling because, you know, we have enemies within.
We have Iranian spies.
We know their names, okay?
I've got one for you.
She's the Assistant Secretary of Defense of Special Ops.
I know.
We've discussed her on the show.
Well, I'm just saying it again.
And so if they know they have these Iranian spies here, this Rob Malley that they also discovered, why are they still there?
How is it that this administration told Iran and warned them that they'll be attacked by ISIS?
Because this administration, Judy, I think you're asking a rhetorical question.
You know as well as I do, this administration is on the side of our enemies.
It's like I said in my Oxford Union speech.
When we were in the White House, our friends were reassured, our enemies were afraid.
Now the opposite is the case.
Our enemies are emboldened and that's why American warfighters are being killed.
God bless you.
Thank you, Judy.
Thank you to all of our callers.

People always want to know my feeling.
Number one, we're in for $200 billion plus.
And the European nations are in for $20 billion.
And it's more important for them.
And don't you think they should equalize?
Nobody asks them.
It's like I did with NATO.
I said, we're spending, we're paying for NATO.
And we don't get so much out of it.
And you know, I hate to tell you this about NATO.
If we ever needed their help, let's say we were attacked, I don't believe they'd be there.
I'm gonna use Kirby again with Kurt.

Right.
Apparently I'm a neocon!
Right.
Killing bad guys is suddenly not good.
Not America first?
Because if allowing a bunch of 7th century potentates to push us around, if that's America first, count me out.
Bingo.
All right, stand by.
Well, Mika, no question there's going to be a response, and you heard that from the president
We will respond.
But as we've done in the past, we're going to do it in a time and a manner of our choosing.
We'll be careful, we'll be deliberate about this, and the President will make the right decisions at the right time.
We're certainly not going to telegraph punches to the Iranians or to these groups that they're backing.
Well, that instills confidence.
We'll do something sometime.
In the meantime, these are the names of those who were murdered by the Iranian drone.
Sergeant William Rivers, 46, of Georgia.
Specialist Kennedy Sanders, 24, also of Georgia.
And Specialist Breonna Moffitt, 23 years old, of Savannah, Georgia.
All killed by that drone strike.
More than 30 Americans.
Warfighters also injured in that strike.
We will discuss with somebody who has A lot to say about it, but first things first.

He's got a brand new article up at Town Hall.
The man is a bit like President Trump.
He works 20 hours a day, I think.
The article, it's a good one.
It's kind of peace Nicky.
It kind of takes me back to the hippies of the 1960s.
Conservatives give war a chance.
The one and only, we call him Colonel K. Colonel Kurt Schlichter.
Welcome back to America First.
Thanks for having me, Dr. Gorka.
Well, I think your latest piece kind of echoes, in summation, the message of your latest book, The Attack, which you wrote at breakneck speed after the slaughter of the innocents in Israel.
And I don't want to put words in your mouth, but I was responding to Candace Owens earlier today with a very simple message.
You know, bad guys, foreigners, they need to be killed very often if they threaten America, or if they kill Americans.
It's really quite simple, isn't it, Colonel K?
It really is.
I don't understand this perversion of America First.
America First is a Jacksonian philosophy where we are willing to fight for our interests, willing to defend ourselves and our people, but not stupidly, not out of greed, but out of necessity.
But also, when we do fight, we're in it to win it.
And then we come home.
And that's the essence of the American First philosophy.
The America First philosophy is not, well, we shouldn't even be outside the borders of America, and if you are, you're asking for it!
You and your short skirt!
That's not America First.
If it were, I wouldn't be it, you wouldn't be it, and your listeners wouldn't be it.
We have three Americans, as you correctly characterized them, murdered by a bunch of 7th century barbarians.
That demands a response.
The simple fact is, Iran has been at war with us since their garbage revolution almost 45 years ago.
We don't get the only vote about who we're at war with.
They're at war with us.
They've killed thousands of Americans from Beirut to Baghdad and now in Jordan.
And it's about time we put these people back in their box.
Right, so let's dig down on this because this is the thing that really, you know, we've got to win the election, we've got to get President Trump back as a commander-in-chief, we've got to kill some bad guys like we did with al-Baghdadi and Soleimani, but in the meantime we've got to deal with these people on our side.
So let's put up Candace Owens' tweet again.
So she heard about this, she saw the response from some senators and she said, Generation 9-11 has grown up and we aren't falling for this anymore, as if Killing those who killed our servicemen is equivalent to invading another country.
And my response was very simple.
Not all violence is inappropriate, Candace.
Unless, of course, you believe America doesn't have enemies who wish to destroy us.
I get, you know, the cynicism with regards to Gulf One and G-What, and I understand that, but how do you go from cynicism concerning neoconservative forever wars to defaulting to this thing where you think, as a conservative or a putative one, violence is never okay and we can't whack people who whacked our guys.
Kurt, do you understand how they make that leap of logic?
I really don't.
Conservatism is not simply pessimism with lower marginal tax rates.
Okay?
Hang on.
Was that extemporaneous?
No, that appears in my wonderful article.
Repeat that line.
I want to turn this into an Instagram short.
Repeat that line again.
Say it again.
Conservatism is not pacifism with lower marginal tax rates.
Look, the elite has done no favors through its strategic and tactical incompetence.
And malice and corruption over the last 30 years.
Our military leadership's gross incompetence over the last 30 years has naturally turned people off and made them suspicious.
I get that.
But we need to go back to first principles.
Simply because our elite is totally unfit does not somehow give 7th century savages Any kind of license to murder Americans.
If being a country means anything, it means protecting your citizens from rampaging foreigners.
I mean, these same people scream about the border.
The reason we have a border is to protect Americans.
When they kill Americans, they have thrust war upon us.
We didn't go looking for it, but it came to us.
And You know, there are legitimate criticisms to why we have the forced posture we do in the Middle East.
Irrelevant here.
They killed Americans, now they have to die.
Right, so let me kind of, he's a lawyer so he speaks fancy lingo.
Let me translate it into English.
It doesn't matter, it really doesn't matter why those troops are where they are.
If they are killed, we must kill those who killed them.
That is the law.
That is the law of the Hobbesian world because if you don't, If you don't do that, it will be done again and again and again with Americans who are at home as well.
And the really important point Kurt made earlier, let's be clear, Iran has been at war with us since the Mullahs took over from the Shah in 1979.
We didn't choose the war.
I don't care what you say about Mossadegh and the CIA.
They are at war with us.
God bless you, Kurt.
We're going to keep you over for another segment.

We'll be back with Colonel K after these messages.
I look I think I think there's a libertarian strain and within the young Republicans particularly
And libertarianism is an ideology of children.
Yes, it's for children, right.
Yes, I'm glad it influences the Republican Party because I like liberty.
On the other hand, libertarianism is best encapsulated by a sophomore who comes home at Thanksgiving having just read Atlas Shrugged, and now he's going to tell everybody how stuff is!
Yeah.
And it's like, you know, except for the Pauls.
You know, there are very few older libertarians.
Yeah, yeah.
I just love it.
I remember Michael Malice being interviewed by, I don't know who it was, you know, the total libertarian, whatever, loony.
I think it was on Tim Pool's show.
And somebody said to him, OK, so you don't need government, right?
No, no, no, no government, because I'm a real libertarian.
He said, then what about things like robbery and rape?
And Malice, actually, this is how much of a child these people are.
Malice says, well, yeah, there'd be crime and rape, but, you know, we deal with it.
And you're like, yeah, you're a nine-year-old who wants to smoke dope.
I mean, you really are a child.
Well, I think a lot of libertarianism is people who want to smoke pot and think that the sexual liberty that libertarian promises is going to come to them, and of course it's not.
They don't know the difference between libertine and libertarian.
They need to get a dictionary.
I mean, there's...
The libertarian...
It's just...
The idea that somehow if we don't start something,
no one's going to start something, kind of denies human nature.
But also the idea that, I mean it didn't work in 1941, it didn't work in 9-11, the idea that screw the world and we'll be safe.
I mean you have to be a moron.
You know, I mean, there are reasoned arguments for shrinking our footprint around the world and being selective about where we go.
But, you know, everything is not the same.
You know, I hear a lot about, well, peacekeeping's terrible.
Well, I did peacekeeping in Kosovo, and 800 Americans, or 1,700 Americans, turned an entire country rabidly pro-American.
Right.
Right.
No, no.
strategic effect using peacekeeping tools.
So the idea is everything's not the same.
Adults can distinguish between things.
You know, the idea of paying back Iran for what it did does not require marching to Tehran.
No, no.
OK?
There are levels of things.
Eric, come in with 13, and then I'm going to tee up 14, and we'll ask counsel his opinion

And he referred to those heroes, and I quote, as suckers and losers.
He actually said that!
He said that!
How dare he say that!
How dare he talk about my son and all of us like that!
Your son?
What are you talking about your son?
Your son died in a hospital in America of cancer.
And the president never said those things.
So the liar is you, Joe Biden.
Unbelievable.
Why is he slurring his speech?
So confused.
If you enjoy America First, support the great people that make it possible like Mike Lindell.
He's been cancelled by Fox.
Let's have his back.
Don't buy that Chinese garbage on Amazon.
He's got more than 200 items on his website made in America by Americans.
You'll get up to...
Two-thirds off with my name, and because of what Fox did to him, just because you're listening to me, you'll get free shipping.

We're back with our buddy, Kurt Schlichter.
Brand new article up at Town Hall.
You need to read it.
Give war a chance.
The latest book about whether the Hamas type attack could happen here in America is The Attack.
I've read it.
You need to read it too.
The Attack.
Colonel Kay, let's switch.
Our Azimuth for a second.
You're a very successful trial lawyer, especially when it comes to defamation cases.
We've seen this 83.3 million damages case against the president last week from E. Jean Carroll.
Just a little clip to tee it up.
This is Nikki Haley with a very strange statement.
Cut 14.
And what is unique about this case is that the jury has now ruled they have found him liable of sexual abuse.
Do you not trust the jury and their findings, Ambassador?
I absolutely trust the jury and I think that they made their decision based on the evidence.
I just don't think that should take him off the ballot.
So, Trust the Jury, a jury which, when they were asked, this is fascinating, Colonel, they were asked, these New Yorkers, to kind of gauge their political druthers.
What media do you consume?
And the answers were, the internet.
Apple News.
They didn't say, oh, the New York Times or Breitbart.
The one person who said he supports the president was removed from the jury.
So a very strange quality of jury selection.
Will you talk to us about the fact that this The case did not prove President Trump raped E. Jean Carroll, but it's defamation because she lost her job at age 76 as a columnist for four years because President Trump said, I didn't rape you.
And therefore she gets $83 million.
Can you, can you explain that to mere mortals, Colonel?
Well, it's a giant scam.
I mean, look, if this was anybody, you know, if this was a total drunk, Okay, this case never would have been taken by a lawyer, much less squeezed by the summary judgment phase.
You start with eliminating the statute of limitations.
There's a reason we don't do cases about incidents 30 years ago.
And this is it.
Ms.
Carroll apparently, according to news reports, couldn't even tell you what year this alleged assault, this tryst, allegedly happened.
It's a joke.
And of course Nikki Haley is as good a lawyer as she is anything else, which is to say she's terrible.
I trust the jury.
Why would you do that?
Now, you're talking to a guy who just last week won a jury verdict 12-0.
I like the jury system.
But jurors are also human beings.
And when you select human beings, Uh, from a deep blue district that hates Donald Trump.
Carefully use your peremptory challenges to remove anybody who doesn't hate Donald Trump and then pretend to be surprised when they come back with what is a facially ridiculous verdict.
And there's so many procedural weirdnesses in there.
It's, it is a miscarriage of justice on a colossal scale.
Designed to eliminate a political enemy.
In fact, it was funded by Trump's political enemies.
Right.
It was suggested by Trump's political enemies.
And the only people who don't see it for the joke, and it's a bad joke, it is our Trump's political enemies.
We've got 20 seconds left.
What happens now?
Is it pointless to appeal it given what New York is?
Well, I would definitely appeal it.
And I have very strong views about how you Litigate cases this case was not litigated the way I would
have litigated it on behalf of Donald Trump He's not my client and I wasn't there so I don't want a
second guess I have some ideas about what I would do in the Court of
Appeals and I think there are viable avenues for appellate review
Assuming you can get a fair hearing and sadly you can't always seem to assume that anymore
That could be the subject of a the next article. It's something called town hall calm. I
I don't know, just suggesting.
Hey, in the meantime, follow him at Kurt Schlichter.
The book is The Attack.

I could go on about this terrible abomination.
But you should write an article how Colonel Kaye would fight it.
You know, if you have a direct line to the president, I do.
I have, we can talk about it sometime.

You Ukraine's an interesting case.
People always want to know my feeling.
Number one, we're in for $200 billion plus.
And the European nations are in for $20 billion.
And it's more important for them.
And don't you think they should equalize?
Nobody asks them.
It's like I did with NATO.
I said, we're spending, we're paying for NATO.
And we don't get so much out of it.
And you know, I hate to tell you this about NATO.
If we ever needed their help, let's say we were attacked, I don't believe they'd be there.
It's a very good question.
Would they be?
That is President Trump talking about the realities of geopolitics.
We're going to talk about the sad reality of what's happened in the Middle East in the last few days.
But first things first, we have to be fighting fit for the next 10 months if we're going to save our republic.
What does that mean?
You've got to eat right.
You've got to exercise.
But also, if you're overweight, that's No good.
I've been there for more than 20 years.
I tried to lose the weight.
I was 6 foot 3 and 268 pounds.
That's just too much.
Then I met Dr. Ashley Lucas and her amazing team at MyPhD Weight Loss and I lost 42 pounds in just a matter of months.
My wife Katie lost 36.
My colleague Mike Gallagher lost 53 pounds and kept them off.
Now Dennis Prager is on the program.

Jonathan Gillum, welcome back to America First.
Good to be with you, my friend.
So we've been, I ranted at the top of the show, we just got off with our buddy Kurt Schlichter.
I couldn't think of somebody better to talk about it than a former SEAL and a federal agent.
When Americans get killed overseas, especially in uniform, what's the correct response, Jonathan?
Well, that's an interesting question.
I've been getting asked this all day.
Sebastian, I think, okay, we've got to look at this in two different ways.
Americans were attacked.
How do we respond now?
That is a completely different circumstance than we know somebody is capable of attacking us and wants to attack us.
How do we take that person, that imminent threat out and eliminate it?
Those are two different ways to face a problem.
One is called proactive and the other one is responsive.
And we find ourselves continuously, when it comes to Iran, continuously in this situation of, okay, some people were attacked or our bases were hit.
How do we respond to this?
Well, I tell you, this is where those two issues merge.
At some point in time, the United States is going to have to, if they want this to stop, is going to have to focus on eliminating the head of the snake where these threats and this danger and these attacks come from, and that's Iran.
If we don't do that, then we are going to continue to have a problem with these proxy wars and these attacks and then terrorist attacks that will eventually happen inside the United States, just like they happened in Israel.
Hamas, Hezbollah, The Houthis, all of these groups are proxies of Iran, and they fight Iran's war.
It's no different than if we sent out SEALs and special forces to go and train other groups so that they could go and attack our enemies on a regular basis, and that's how we waged war.
That is guerrilla warfare.
It's unconventional warfare, and that's how Iran fights.
And there's been nothing to stop that.
And when they look at, when the bad guys, if we do a little bit of red teaming, when the bad guys look at us in the last three years, what does Putin think?
What does Kim think?
What do the Mullahs think?
What does Xi Jinping think of the last three years of America?
They look at the administration that's in charge and they say, not what are our capabilities versus their capabilities.
I mean, we could destroy Iran a hundred times over.
We could destroy North Korea a hundred times over.
We could have ourselves fought against Russia and destroyed them if we did it correctly.
But that's not what they look at.
They look at us and they say, what can we get away with under this particular administration?
And that's because they're able to do something.
And if they're able to do something, and that something is a lot, then they're going to do a lot of attacks.
If they have somebody like Trump in office, and they say, well, we're probably not gonna be able to do a lot, so we'll do maybe a little here or a little there using our proxies.
But this is where my criticism for all presidents, and even Trump, but I lay the blame on the Trump administration and the people that he appointed that were advising him, is that nobody solely focuses on Iran.
They fight wars with Iraq.
They go to Afghanistan and fight Iraq.
They wait until something occurs, and then they come up with a response that, in the case of the Biden administration and their allies, Is singular and proportionate, whatever that means.
You're never going to stop a guerrilla warfare using, or a proxy war, using singular proportionate attacks.
We have to eliminate the threat and that threat is the headshed of Iran.
So if it were day one after, you know, God willing, Trump, if we do our part, Trump gets re-elected.
Day one, what would Jonathan Gillum whisper into the commander-in-chief's ear?
You know, I was fully prepared for this question.
I'm glad that you asked me.
I didn't know you were, but I'm glad that you did.
Because I have two things here in my hands that explain this exactly what Trump should do.
You've got 30 seconds.
This is a crystal glass.
It's great for drinking at parties.
This is a Stanley coffee thermos, right?
I can take this into the field with me.
This is very specific, very durable, but I can also drink water out of it.
This has one purpose, to look pretty and to be shown off.
You can only drink certain things out of this.
You can't do everything that you can with this.
The president needs to go in and stop filling his cabinet with these.
He needs to start filling them with this.
With people who serve a specific purpose, who have served in these agencies, who are warriors and law enforcement war fighters.
And really intelligent scientists who do not have an agenda and he needs to make those people his cabinet members so that they can advise him correctly and he can make decisions and when this needs to occur he can carry it out and eliminate the threat.
Jeff, did you rehearse that with Jonathan that he'd have props on my show?
And he hit the clock perfectly.
And he hit the clock.
Dude, that's superb.
No more champagne flutes.
We need some Stanley thermoses.
God bless you.

The acclaimed film America Invaded is coming to Salem now.
After two wars and 20 years, are we safer now?
Pre-order the uncensored version of America Invaded at SalemNow.com Wow, great guests.
Thank you guys and great listeners and callers.
Two people have been waiting very patiently.
Let's go to Todd in Atlanta.
Hey Dr. Gorka, thanks for taking my call.
Talk Radio is the original social media and I appreciate all your guests.
Yes.
I just wanted to say, compare what happened with President Trump and Ms. Carroll to what
happened to Juanita Broderick and Bill Clinton at the White House.
They had visitor logs, she had an injury, witnesses, and then the idea that Trump's
going to go to Bloomingdale's and hang out at a woman's department in front of a dressing
room and nobody's going to know.
And it's going to be exactly the same as an episode of Law & Order.
I think we know, Todd.
I think we know.
I'll check out what Juanita has to say.
She has a rather good Twitter game.
One more call.
John, New Jersey.
Line 3.
Dr. G, thanks for taking my call.
I have a quick border suggestion and also a quick movie question.
Maybe a joint venture with Mike Lindell, a t-shirt that says, My President, Trump 2024, and ship thousands of them south of the border.
So as they're arriving on the border with that, I think it would definitely... You're funny.
You're funny.
You're a troublemaker.
What's next?
We're running out of time.
I love Sean Connery but I'm wondering in 1975 did he lose a bet and make the movie Zardoz?
Yes, that's it.
God bless.
Thank you guys for being so patient for waiting.
I can't review that. I know it's John Borman, but it is one of the worst movies ever made,
even though it's got Sean Connery in it.
Yeah, that's it. God bless. God bless. Thank you. Thank you guys for being so patient,
for waiting. I have one more thing to do before the manhood hour.
It's not about my father. It's about my mother.
I lost her when she was 64 years old.
Today she would have been 85.
You can put a picture up, put my parents' pictures up.
My father is the bravest man I ever knew or ever will know, who survived torture, imprisonment, Just the greatest man I know.
My mother, the smartest woman, the most educated, the most sophisticated.
And the person, along with my wife, who most embodies service to the other.
Love as communicated by just serving, not yourself.
For the members of your family, your guests, and your friends.
Paul Gorka.
Susan Gorka.
You are missed.
Happy birthday, Mum.
Next up, the Manhood Hour.
A different kind of Manhood Hour, with a man who's going to tell us what kind of men founded this country.
Stay with us, won't you?
I'm Sebastian Gawker.
This is America First.
Bye.
Stay with us for more One on One with our special in-studio guest, Shermichael Singleton.
We'll be back with more One on One here on America First with Shermichael Singleton.
More one-on-one with our special guest Shermichael Singleton and me, Sebastian Gorka, after these messages.
Welcome back to America First one-on-one with our in-studio guest, GOP strategist Shermichael Singleton.
You're listening to America First one-on-one with our in-studio guest, Shermichael Singleton.
Welcome back to America first with me Sebastian Gorka and our special guest Sher Michael Singleton
Welcome to America first with me Sher Michael Singleton. Our prosecutors association has
been working with us for a long time to get this case closed.
Music playing.
Welcome, dear friends, to a very special edition of the Manhood Hour.
We're going to spread our wings today.
We're going to open the aperture beyond just focusing on the guests in studio, their understanding of what it means to be a man and where they learnt those values from and who they learnt them from.
We're going to talk about those values in the broader historic context, especially when it comes to the founding of our republic and maybe even connect it to Is it a constitutional crisis?
Well, what's happening on the southern border?
We have more than two dozen governors standing with the Lone Star State that was, in fact, its own nation for a decade in the 19th century.
No one better to discuss it than a man who has written a seminal new work, a work that I should just give as gifts to my friends because it's so important.
It is Freedom, the Enduring Importance of the American Revolution, a beautifully produced and a beautifully written book by none other than Professor Jack Warren Jr.
Professor, welcome in studio.
Thank you for having me, Sebastian.
Now, I'm going to ask the boring and rude question at the beginning so we can get that out of the way.
What's the boring and rude question?
Why another book on American history?
Tell us what's special about freedom.
Well, there are dozens of books about the American Revolution.
Why do you need a new 470-page, generously... Beautifully illustrated... Listen, I have no commission here.
Yes, my wife recommended the book to me.
This is one of the most beautifully executed, visually executed books I've seen.
I mean, forget historic books, just books per se.
It's beautiful.
No, we tried to make it so.
But beyond producing a beautiful book, we need a new history of the american revolution to remind americans why the american revolution matters and to enrich their understanding of the revolution it it it really is the great american epic and you know that bears repeating because the revolution was a long time ago uh... you know and and it's easy to discount we know that they people look different than us they talk different you know men who wear powder in their hair and
knee breaches. They don't resonate so much with people today. And of course, they're
portraits. They're all painted when they were old men. And we forget that the Revolution
was fought and led by young men. The average soldier, 16, 17 years old. George Washington,
when he took command of the Cotton Army, was 42 years old and in his prime. A great dancer,
great horseback rider, great athlete.
These are exciting people engaged in a desperate struggle and it's a great epic story that all Americans should embrace.
All Americans.
All right.
I could discuss this for hours.
I think we had dinner at my home a few weeks ago, or a month or two ago, and into the wee hours we were discussing the theses of the book, how much is misunderstood about that event with Rich Mineta over cigars, and it lasted quite a while.
But we'll try and condense it for the three and a half million Americans who are listening across the nation today.
So let's start with What do people get most wrong about the revolution?
Well, today, the misinformation that the revolution is a source of oppression and injustice in American life.
Right.
I mean, this has been promoted by the right.
Hannah Nicole Jones.
Right.
Right.
By, you know, frankly, it's being promoted by far left race hustlers and grifters who want us to despise and disparage our country so that it's our government can be replaced by one more to their liking.
They're not worthy of debate or discussion except for we live in difficult times when they've got platforms and they are articulating ideas candidly you know The idea is that Nicole Hannah-Jones presented in the 1619 Project are, they weren't even original.
They've been kicking around since the early 1970s at least in Marxist literature primarily.
And the argument that America was founded on racism basically.
Yeah, and her core argument about the American Revolution that the American Continental Congress declared independence to separate America and American slaveholders from the threat posed by British abolitionism.
This argument is so specious and nonsensical on so many levels that serious people shouldn't bother to discuss it except it is winning too many converts.
The silliness, number one, there was no abolitionist movement in Britain in 1776.
The abolitionist movement in Britain, which led in 1834 to the abolition of slavery in the British Empire, was inspired by what?
By the American Revolution, which ignited an anti-slavery movement on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
The American Revolution was responsible for the first laws abolishing slavery ever passed anywhere in the world.
Pennsylvania Statute of 1780, which abolished slavery.
And the American Revolution's idealism set in train the process of reform which led to the empowerment of women, of all kinds of ordinary people, the extension of the vote, and the abolition of slavery.
Yes, through a long and painful process.
But understand, before the American Revolution, and this goes to the heart of what my book is about, before the American Revolution, no one on earth in any meaningful way, the way that means meaningful to us, was free.
Right.
Rousseau said it.
Mankind was born to be free, but everywhere he is in chains, everyone in the middle of the 18th century was the subject.
There were no citizens.
And the sovereignty belonged to some god, you know, blessed king, some dynasty, some elite.
The idea that the people are sovereign is what made America unique.
Right.
And that idea had been kicking around among coffeehouse philosophers and radicals in Europe for over a century.
But the American revolutionaries were the first people to use those ideals, the ideals of universal equality, of liberty, of personal independence, of natural and civil rights, and responsible citizenship as the basis of a new kind of social organization.
Which is what the United States is.
I mean, it's a watershed in human history.
And to disparage it, to denigrate it, to suggest that it's a source of oppression, when it is in fact the source of freedom in the modern world, is lunacy.
And before we get to the 1619 project, the other version of events, the oversimplification, the misrepresentation that it's about taxation, unfair taxation, tea imports, where does that all come from?
All of that plays in.
I mean, that is the radical opposition to increased British imperial regulation in the aftermath of the French and Indian War between 1763 and 1775.
Americans weren't just revolting against taxes. In fact the taxes were modest and
they knew it.
Those taxes were far lower than anyone in Europe was paying at the time
but they weren't represented in the British legislature.
It was the manner of their imposition.
Yes and if they accepted them, it would continue on and on and on.
And that actually was a reasonable fear.
I mean, all you have to do is take a look at, say, British government of Ireland, which was essentially a British colony, to see what's possible in the imposition on natural rights and civil liberties under British rule.
We're talking to the author of a fabulous new book.

Professor, let's talk about these men.
It is the manhood hour.
Is there something uniquely different about them that they could write this declaration, that they could write this constitution eventually, that they could write this Bill of Rights?
Or is it the context?
Is it this tabula rasa of this continent-sized proto-nation?
Or is it the context of the withering or the challenging of the That's tough to do.
the l'état c'est moi concept that the God is king is collapsing. Why do we
hail these people as geniuses? What's special about them?
Can you explain?
That's tough to do. But if anybody can...
I'm asking you.
Maybe.
The leaders of the American Revolutionary Generation are, without question, some of the luminaries of American history.
Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Madison.
These are giants of modern political thought and modern political action and modern idealism.
An unusual combination of philosopher and actor or political agent at the same time.
Right.
They combined in a unique kind of way philosophy and action in a way that is almost unimaginable today.
They came out of an 18th century enlightenment context in which landed gentlemen, and Washington,
Jefferson, Madison were landed gentlemen, cultivated literature and idealism in a way
that, and they had the leisure to do it.
And they believed, in the 18th century, a common belief throughout the Anglo-American
world, that leadership flowed naturally from social position.
That is, it was the responsibility of wealthy men.
So the noblesse oblige concept?
Well, yes, but it is an obligation of wealth, yes.
To provide public leadership.
An idea which in fact, democracy as it developed, washed entirely away.
Explain that sentence, that's fascinating.
You know, think about, I mean, In other words, the revolution which began, which was led by America's leading gentleman, people had an enormous amount at risk.
You know, these weren't urban streets.
Their lives, their treasure, their sacred honor.
Everything.
They put at risk.
I mean, Washington was one of the, in the top two or three percent of wealth in Virginia.
He had everything to lose from the American Revolution.
And the same is true of most of the other leading Virginia, Carolina, North Carolina revolutionaries.
Adams and others in New England were much the same.
They weren't, you know, super wealthy merchants.
Hancock was.
Others were.
And these people had an enormous amount at risk in the revolution.
But they believed that that kind of principle of leadership was something that they were responsible for.
They created a republic.
You know, they were as close to being aristocrats as America ever had.
Yes.
But of course they weren't.
Right?
They were landed gentlemen.
But they weren't free of the taint of trade in the traditional philosophical sense.
They relied on the profits of their farms and of their mercantile activities.
They were hip deep.
Yeah, they were businessmen as well.
Right, and so they weren't truly disinterested in the way 18th century people used the sense
of disinterest.
In British political theory, a landed gentleman can provide leadership because he is so wealthy
and he relies on income from rents, which will be constant.
Never handles cash, never runs.
So it doesn't matter.
He can be truly disinterested.
He can have the public good in mind because his good is taken care of.
This certainly wasn't necessarily true in America.
I mean, these men were hit deep in commercial life.
But they believed in that ideal.
That ideal that men of wealth and substance owed the public leadership.
But they created a republic.
With democratic institutions, with legislature, which was the predominant branch of government in the new federal government, elected by the people.
And very quickly, the people began electing men who were not like them.
By the early 19th century, a whole class of professional politicians, people who had no other source of income than office holding.
And democratic society, as we have come to live it, came into existence.
Now, that democracy gave us some brilliant people.
It gave us Walt Whitman.
It gave us Abraham Lincoln, who would have withered in obscurity.
If it weren't for the growth of American democratic institutions.
But we lost something too.
We lost that idea of philosopher leaders.
We will never again see the likes of Jefferson or Madison or John Adams in public life.
I have so many questions to ask you.
Is it an oversimplification to say that what you're describing is the tension between being the first really successful republic and this concept of democracy?
Is there a tension there?
Well, there is.
Understand that, I mean, we often, and when we discuss this period, we discuss political philosophy, we often contrast republicanism and democracy.
That's a false thing to do.
A republic, in the classical sense, in the honest sense, is a form of government dedicated to the interests of ordinary people, of everyone.
How it resolves its issues, how it resolves disputes, is an entirely separate question.
Our republic is led It's not a, we're not a pure democracy.
We have democratically elected leaders, but we expect our legislatures to do some things,
our appointed judges to do others, our executives to do still others.
And while all of them are ultimately accountable to the people, that's a basic Republican idea,
they aren't necessarily responsive.
They're not Democrat.
They may be democratically chosen, but they're filtered.
And that was one of the ideas of the founders, right, is the filtration of talent.
So that originally, for example, state legislatures were to elect members of the United States Senate, typically from among their own members or retiring governors and so forth.
And so this idea, common to our Constitution, of the filtration of talent, so there's only one truly democratic portion of the American government under the U.S.
Constitution, that is, the House of Representatives.
We balance democracy.
Democracy is a way of resolving problems.
It's a mechanism.
Right.
And at its worst, democracy, there's an old cliché, you know, democracy is two wolves and a sheep having a vote about what to have for dinner.
Right.
Or as Churchill said, the worst ever system known to man except for all the others.
Exactly so.
But there's an important thing I want You and everyone else to understand about the American Revolution.
At its core, it's about freedom.
It's not about government.
Government is to get out of the way.
The revolutionary generation distrusted government.
They wanted a government in which they could be proud, but they wanted a small government, a limited government.
And they created them.
Over time, we have created this gargantuan system, which is very difficult to maintain accountability in.

issue that really bugs me professor?
I believe you don't have to be a Christian to be an American, but America is founded upon Judeo-Christian values, and I've kind of had it with these Pre-1619, likewise, I deem it to be Neo-Marxist spins that, oh, the Founding Fathers, they weren't Christians.
They were deists.
Just look at Jefferson and they believed in some watchmaker out in the, you know, distance.
And they weren't really informed by Christianity, qua Christianity.
Who were the Founding Fathers in terms of their relationship to God?
Everyone in the 18th century.
Everyone lived in a, in the Western world, lived in a predominantly Christian culture.
Even those who questioned, who were what we would call today agnostics, who disputed the value of the established churches and felt they were a source of controversy and problems and disputes and injustice in society, all of them We're shaped by Christian culture.
It doesn't matter whether Jefferson indeed was a deist.
I mean, there's no serious question about it.
You wouldn't otherwise cut the word God out of your Bible, if you would.
No, no.
And many of the revolutionary leaders were influenced by those Enlightenment ideas.
But don't kid yourself.
They lived in a predominantly Christian culture and their ideas were fundamentally Christian.
Let me take apart perhaps the most famous statement of the American Revolution and try to illustrate in this regard.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator.
With a capital C. With a capital C. With certain inalienable rights, among which are the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
That is not an agnostic statement.
It acknowledges a Creator.
In that culture, that meant the Christian God.
And rights derived from Him.
And what are those rights?
The rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Not the right to happiness, the right to pursue it as you define it.
Well, yes, as you define it, but that culture had an understanding of what that was.
And here's a great... I mean, life we all understand, right?
You have a right to life.
It's a natural right that inheres in all people, in all times, in all places.
That's what a natural right is.
One of our problems today, by the way, is so many Americans confuse natural rights and civil rights, which are quite different things.
We have a natural right to life, which includes a right to defend yourself if your life is in jeopardy and so forth.
You have a right to liberty.
And liberty is not a fuzzy term.
It means the absence of restraint by government or by the impositions of others.
If government promises to protect your liberty, it promises to protect you both from state action and from action of others which compromise your choices.
But what is this pursuit of happiness?
I mean, at the heart of American philosophy, this idea, because happiness, you know, Happiness is a warm puppy, right?
It's an ephemeral idea, you know?
It's pleasure to us today, almost of a trivial kind.
Oh, this makes me happy.
But in the 18th century, and in its true sense, happiness is not trivial.
Happiness is the satisfaction we get, and this is based deeply in Christian culture, which every one of the men who signed that declaration understood, in the idea of social responsibility.
Right?
What does the book of Ephesians teach, right?
The famous passage, everyone knows, right?
Wives, be subject to your husbands.
Husbands, be subject to your wives.
But it's all prefaced by an injunction that we set aside our anger, that we love one another, and that we serve one another.
The message of Ephesians, which is at the heart of Christian doctrine, is be subject to one another, which is the beautiful phrase in the book.
Well, keep in mind, to us, Subjection is not something we worry about so much.
It's important in our lives.
But to an 18th century person, to a 17th century person, at the time of the translation of the King James Bible, when that word was used, subjection was your relationship to royal authority.
And it's a radical message.
Be subject to one another.
In other words, serve one another.
Ensure the happiness of others.
Serve one another.
The revolution calls on us to serve one another, to put aside many of our own selfish desires for the good of all.
Not for the good of the state, mind you.
Yes, yes, yes.
And the revolution creates, it's important to understand, I don't want people to approach this book, or to approach the American Revolution thinking that the outcome of the revolution is the creation of a state.
That's only one that is the Federal Government.
Often we end the story there, and I do too.
I end with the adoption of the Federal Constitution.
But what has happened, in fact, is freedom from the overweening power of monarchical authority, which claimed authority over almost all aspects of life.
Right.
I mean, the culmination of the Revolution is the adoption of the Constitution and a Bill of Rights which says, Government shall not do this.
Right.
The book is Freedom by our in-studio guest Professor Jack Warren Jr.
to do. And those rights, over two and a half centuries, have been extended to more and
more people. They are a beacon to people all over the world.

Okay, come in with Biden.
Too much of what's happening in our country today is not normal.
Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.
Bathed in red light, standing outside one of the most important buildings in America, Liberty Hall, flanked by Marines in their dress uniform, calling half the nation a threat, MAGA extremists.
The current incumbent in the White House doubled down on that, recently in a church in South Carolina, when he labeled half the nation white supremacists.
Can the Republic survive, as we were warned by Founding Father?
You have it for as long as you can keep it.
No one better to answer that question than our in-studio guest for the manhood hour, the author of a beautiful new book.
It's called Freedom, The Enduring Importance of the American Revolution.
Professor Warren, can you just help?
Let's dial down the heat and all the hysteria.
But put into context what we've witnessed in just the last few days since Thursday in Texas, the governor standing up to the federal authorities saying, I have a responsibility, the people of my state, which by the way for a decade was its own country, Texas was a republic, its own country, and the idea that This necessarily must lead to a civil war or whether people need to stop the hyperbole.
We have a unique country.
Yes, there are cantons in Switzerland, but the Republican system of states in America doesn't just allow, but does it not require of governors to take such action if the federal authorities are found wanting?
It well may.
The federal system is not unique, as you suggest, in the world, but it is one of the peculiar blessings of our country.
It allows for local resolution of clearly local issues.
We have had a tendency over the last century and a half to nationalize more and more and more and frequently that leads to serious difficulty because the federal government can't necessarily balance the needs of Texas and those of Maine and Oregon.
That's why we have a federal system and why it has served us well.
The situation on the border and the situation—I think what the governor is embodying is the frustration of people in his state and of his region of the country, which mirrors the frustration that Americans are feeling.
I'll broaden the discussion a little bit here.
Americans are frustrated across the board with the situation at the border.
Even those who prefer a more open border don't like the system that we have.
Most Americans, every poll indicates, most Americans are frustrated.
When the Democrat mayor of New York says the illegals being bused into our city by the feds are going to destroy New York, then it's across the political spectrum.
Right.
But my suggestion to him, the mayor of Chicago, and others is stop calling your city a sanctuary if in fact you don't want to give sanctuary to a small percentage of the hundreds of thousands of people flowing across our border.
Article 4, Section 4 of the United States Constitution guarantees to each state a Republican form of government, which all of them have, and it promises to protect them against invasion.
And it's hard to imagine that the influx of undocumented, illegal immigrants into the country... Twelve thousand a day.
...isn't an invasion.
It's not necessarily an armed invasion, but it does pose dangers to us of all kinds.
And it is the responsibility of the federal government to defend the states.
And if they won't, the governors need to do so.
That's what's happening in Texas.
But it reflects widespread frustration with a government which spends too much, which
has too much red tape, which fails to teach young people fundamental skills, an educational
system which is fixated on sex and race.
You go down the list, you know, a nation which is spiraling into the greatest debt in the history of the world.
All of these things are sources of frustration and they feed into our politics and they are not to be taken lightly and they are not to be dismissed.
By politicians on either side as merely the voice of extremism.
They are the voice of the American people.
And that dehumanizing language is dangerous in and of itself.
When you call half a nation extreme, you have to ask the question first, why do they hold the views they hold?
Exactly.
Let's return to the nature of the American Revolution and your book, Freedom.
I had a discussion with Os Guinness in studio several years ago, and he said something fascinating.
I'm curious what your reaction is.
He said, people misunderstand that the models, the arguments of the last 250 years are between two visions of revolution.
The American type of revolution and the French type of revolution.
And one must understand the differences.
One is based on eternal values and understand the role of the creator, of natural law.
And the other puts man at the center.
And that's the French revolution, which of course will always lead eventually to what?
Whether it's the death camps in the Soviet Union or whether it's the guillotine and Madame, you know, guillotine and the grand terror.
Are there competing visions of revolution through history?
Are these the two basic camps?
Those are.
I wish I could tell you that I disagree and that we could have a debate, but I don't.
Those are fundamental differences.
A atheistic revolution, which is man-centered, which isn't based on eternal values and eternal truths, The truths which are celebrated in the idea of natural law provided by a creator.
Those are fundamental to the American Revolution.
And those rights, natural rights, and the civil rights that we erect to facilitate them, and to facilitate civil society, those are fundamental to the American system of government.
Not statism.
The French Revolution stands for statism, as do all of the revolutions that we should naturally abhor ever since.
All the godless ones.
Right.
But ours is totally different, because it's not about government.
It's about people and their rights.
Natural rights.
And civil rights.
And it's basic principles.
Personal independence.
Liberty, that is the absence of restraint.
Equality, but equality before the law.
And equality of opportunity.
Not necessarily any guarantee of equality of condition.
Yes.
Which has been slid into our... Equity argument.
The equity argument.
You know, that the government must guarantee that.
Only way the government can do that is in fact to adopt The French Revolutionary Model.
And the Statist Model.
The Statist Model, the Russian Communist Model, you name it.
Where the government decides who the winners and losers are.
Exactly.
Redistribution of wealth, which is actually theft.

Hopefully you'll come back and join us again, or we can go through the book chapter by chapter.
It's a great story.
It's the American epic and only the beginning, too.
And it's the apotheosis of our civilization.
I mean, America is, you know...
The exemplar, the exemplar.
Let's give some homework to our listeners until next time.
If people are rediscovering our nation beyond the standard works, let's start with yours, Freedom.
Let's start with the Federalist Papers and give them a little bit of On Democracy by de Tocqueville.
Give us two more things that should be mandatory reading for those who want to discover or rediscover where they are living.
Well, try, you didn't ask me about this beforehand, what books do I really recommend?
The Radicalism of the American Revolution by Gordon Wood.
A generation old now, but still I think one of the best books ever written about the American Revolution.
It's a powerful work.
The Radicalism of the American Revolution, Gordon Wood.
Gordon Wood.
I recommend any of the works by C. Bradley Thompson, who leads the Center for the Study of Capitalism
at Clemson University.
Give us one title.
Do you know one?
America's Moral Revolution, a relatively new book by him.
Really quite outstanding.
I also believe, and Brad will curse me for saying this, I am a big aficionado of Gary Will's Inventing America, which is now almost 50 years old, which is a brilliant book about the Declaration of Independence.
All right.
We have given the homework, has been issued.
Gary Wills, we have Inventing America, we have C. Bradley Thompson's America's Moral Revolution, and then Gordon Wood's The Radicalism of the American Revolution.
Three fine books, but that'll only get you started.
Well, we have begun the discussion, and hopefully we will continue it with some regularity.
But start with the pretty one.
It's substantive, but it's also beautiful.
It's freedom, the enduring importance of the American Revolution, by our Manhood Hour guest today, Professor Jack Warren, Jr.
I'm Sebastian Gawker.
This has been the Manhood Hour.
