	you you
	Thank you.
	News here's Dr. Sebastian Gorka.
	What happened with that liner?
	We missed the beginning of that liner.
	I like that.
	Deep voice, Dave.
	We are selling like gangbusters.
	200 cabins already for our July 4th Patriots cruise.
	I'm really stoked.
	I can't believe I said this to my wife yesterday because I never thought I'd say this.
	I'm excited about going on a cruise.
	Truth is, I've never been on a cruise and I've never been to Alaska.
	If you missed our trip to the Holy Land, With 350 of our dearest listeners, it was incredible.
	Now it's a little bit closer to home.
	Don't miss this!
	Patriots together in the most beautiful state of the Union, plotting how to take back the nation from those who are destroying it.

	That's S-E-B-G-O-R-K-A, SebGorka.com, and the Patriots Alaska Crews.
	All right, we had the monologue on the special counsel that is Disastrous press conference.
	The mainstream media have turned on the president.
	How long is he going to last?
	I think he's toast.
	We've got to talk about the Tucker interview as well, but we have so many guests.
	It's Friday.
	I want to take some calls as well.
	So let's go to our good buddy somewhere in the long grass in Livermore.
	Ray, happy Friday.
	Happy Friday.
	Happy Second Amendment constitutionally guaranteed Friday, my friend.
	Thank you.
	The first civil right.
	Let me take this off speaker.
	You sound good.
	There's an old saying, I got a couple things I want to ask you a couple questions on this, but there's a saying it says it's better to be thought a decrepit, inept, grifting old fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.
	I think that's, isn't that how the saying goes?
	Yeah, that is a classic Beltway saying.
	You're absolutely right there, Ray.
	Yes, yes.
	And in fact, Like you said, this thing is turning.
	Gosh, what's the guy's name?
	The Project Veritas guy.
	James O'Keefe.
	Yeah, he went behind lines without a disguise.
	I saw that video and he had somebody, who was it?
	Was it somebody from the White House?
	He filmed him talking about how Joe's senile and it wasn't somebody pretending to be a pretty girl or a pretty boy, you know, hooking up with the person they're filming.
	It was James O'Keefe doing the interview, Ray!
	Exactly.
	No disguise at all.
	And this guy bragged about being like something like the cyber online security.
	Yes, that's it.
	That's it.
	Everything just spills the beans that no one has confidence in this guy.
	And he's so much worse behind the camera than he is in front of the camera.
	And so then, this leads to the question, which is, Glenn Beck has been saying that the doors are open and they're letting this happen.
	The people in charge, the people who are really running the show, because it's clearly not Joe, are letting this happen.
	In other words, signaling everybody it's time.
	We're no longer standing behind this man.
	We've got to look for somebody else.
	Yeah, it's so here's the thing that I am.
	And my family was my son's birthday celebrations.
	But I'm such a flipping addict.
	I had the press conference playing in the background.
	And even my wife said she said, I've never seen that before.
	For three years, I've never seen the press scream at Joe Biden.
	And then Jeff, he said he was cooking a steak outside on the barbecue.
	And then he heard the news.
	He heard the press conference and he thought, are they playing a press conference from the Trump years with the media screaming at him?
	No, they weren't.
	So, Ray, I think they've had it with him.
	They pulled the plug.
	And the trouble is, how do they get around Kamala, Ray?
	Is he there?
	Do we have Ray?
	Oh, we switched Ray off.
	Line three.
	Ray, you still there?
	How do they get around the cackler?
	Well, you know what?
	That is going to be one of their most difficult obstacles, and Larry Elder has pointed this out, because the Black female vote is the most loyal constituency the Democrat Party has.
	And the only way they can do that is what Glenn Beck has been saying also, which is Michelle Obama's coming in, and she's saying, no, I'm not.
	I don't want to have anything to do with this.
	Um, but we know if she got put in, her husband would be the one running the show.
	She would just be a figurehead, kind of like the guy we have now.
	Yeah, I don't buy it.
	I don't buy either him, I don't, either her or him as the, you know, person behind it.
	Why would they?
	Why would they move back to D.C.?
	Why would they leave their tens of millions of dollars, no show jobs in Netflix?
	I don't buy it.
	It's going to have to be Gavin, in my opinion.
	All right.
	Great call.
	Let's squeeze in a few more before our first guest of the day.
	Let's go to George, Columbus, Ohio.
	Hi, Dr. Gorter.
	Happy 6th of November Friday.
	And to you as well.
	What's your comment?
	What's your question, George?
	I'm calling about your opener with Joe Biden.
	So I've got two theories on this.
	Either one This is a scam from the beginning where... No, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
	You can't act what he does.
	I'm sorry.
	No.
	Stop that right now.
	The guy is senile, alright?
	He's senile.
	Carry on.
	Next option.
	That's not the scam.
	The scam is that whoever's pulling the strings, stop giving him whatever was making him wake up and do his thing.
	There's some of those conferences where you know he's getting something because, you know, he's like the Duracell bunny and then suddenly the next day it's all run down.
	So yeah, there's something artificial going on there.
	You're right there, George.
	Artificial?
	Something wrong.
	Can I get a quick t-shirt idea in there?
	Totally.
	It's Friday.
	Do it.
	So on the front, in American flag letters, Donald Trump's statement.
	Every time I am indicted, it is an honor.
	And on the back, you have to have a picture of Mayor Rudy with Donald Trump arm over arm.
	And it's got to say on the bottom, Teflon Don.
	Oh, that's a good one.
	That deserves a t-shirt.
	Stay on the line, George.
	He gets to pick one of the two new t-shirts.
	Teflon Don with Rudy.
	That's actually very smart.
	I like that.
	Thank you.
	Stay on the line, George.
	Roy, Dallas.
	Sir, thank you for taking my call, Dr. G. Sure.
	What's your comment?
	What's your question?
	Democratic Party leadership, Chuck Schumer and the others in that gang squad, they could probably kick themselves in the ass right now because they wanted to stack the United States Supreme Court.
	And they're saying, why the hell did we get that accomplished?
	And they said, dang, you know, and they've done everything in the world to our President Trump.
	And I wouldn't put it past him to try that effort again.
	Of course.
	Yes, sir.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	With Joe Biden being dead.
	Secondly, Dr. Gorka, I'd like to offer this suggestion.
	With that $53 to $58 million of the debit cards going to the illegal immigrants, why don't the Bidens empty out the millions of dollars of their coffers that they got off the Chinese and the Russians and Why would they do that, Roy?
	Then they can't buy their Corvettes, and then they can't buy all the prostitutes and the cocaine.
	Roy, come on.
	I mean, you know, prostitutes are expensive.
	All that cocaine and that crack, it's expensive.
	Thank you, Roy.
	Thank you.
	Yes, sir.
	God bless President Trump.
	Three associate justices.
	Man, are we lucky that they are there right now.
	I'm Sebastian Gawker.
	This is America First.
	What actually happened last night?
	Did the old KGB colonel give Tucker the runaround?
	We'll talk to one of the preeminent experts on what the Kremlin is really doing.

	That's my whole name is one word Sebastian Gawker dot substack dot com
	.
	Look over there.
	Serious.
	A well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.
	It's pretty embarrassing for Biden, but on the bright side, he'll forget about it five minutes later.
	So, I mean, just... Just think, just, you know... Actually, get this.
	Yesterday, for the second time this week, Biden got mixed up while talking about world leaders and meant to say that he met with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, but accidentally said the name of a German chancellor who died years ago.
	You know, other than the name, gender, and being dead, he got most of it right.
	So I mean you gotta give him You
	You You
	You You
	you President Biden mishandled classified documents, but will
	not face any criminal charges. Yeah The report said Biden won't be charged, so the jury would see him as a well-meaning elderly man with a poor... I'm serious.
	A well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.
	It's pretty embarrassing for Biden, but on the bright side, he'll forget about it five
	minutes later.
	So I mean, just, just think, just, you know, actually get this.

	So, I mean, you gotta give him...
	We're live right now, David.
	Can I start the show?
	Okay, so I'm Sebastian Corker, this is America First.
	Not only is the White House press corps turned on him, late night comedy?
	They're making jokes about everything, not just the report, but seeing the dead people.
	The end is nigh for the man in the White House.

	were hearing after that clip is a guest who we haven't seen in a while.
	We're delighted to have in studio, no one better to explain what really happened for two hours yesterday across the world as people tuned in to a video from The Kremlin.
	He's the author of The Less You Know The Better You Sleep, Russia's Road to Terror and Dictatorship Under Yeltsin and Putin.
	He's the FT's, the Financial Times' former man in Moscow.
	David Satter, welcome back in studio.
	Glad to be with you.
	All right, so where do we begin?
	You said in the break something fascinating, that Putin chose the right person to interview him and there were no surprises.
	Unpack that comment for us, if you would, David.
	Well, Putin repeated things that he's been saying for the last two years.
	There was nothing new here.
	The only bit of news, I think, was the hint that he might be willing to exchange Evan Gershkovich The Wall Street Journal correspondent for a guy, Krasikov, who is in fact a hired killer, who killed an opposition figure in Berlin.
	And that kind of trade tells you all you have to know about who Putin is.
	But in any case, the choice of Tucker Carlson, of course, is not accidental.
	The Russians had suspected that Tucker Carlson was capable of asking a single intelligent question.
	He would have never been chosen for that interview.
	Other people have, in fact, requested interviews with Putin.
	They've been turned down.
	I mean, in fact, in many cases, their requests have not even been answered.
	What kind of questions?
	Because I thought the obvious one, even for a layman who isn't, you know, a person who had a former show on Fox, the obvious question is, the Russia hoax, the Russia scandal, the so-called collusion, what was Russia's true involvement?
	Two and a half hours and Tucker didn't even ask that question.
	Well, that question is important.
	It's secondary to the question of why they invaded Ukraine, because right now, the real issue before the Congress is, are we going to fund... Oh, but he answered that!
	He gave a 40-minute discourse on the fact that Ukraine isn't a real country, and was invented by Hungarians and Austrians.
	I mean, just irresistible.
	I understand that.
	But the point is, when you're a journalist, And when you're... Sebastian, you know this, and I don't have to tell you, and I know it.
	You don't just allow someone to go on for 40 minutes spewing misinformation.
	And the fact is that Ukraine is not an artificial country.
	It was created at exactly the same time as the Russian Federation, after the fall of the Russian Empire and the creation of the Soviet Union.
	The Ukrainian Republic, Soviet Republic and the Russian Federated Soviet Republic were created at exactly the same moment, a hundred years ago.
	So if Ukraine is an artificial country, then so is Russia.
	So is Russia.
	All right, hold it there.
	We're going to continue with David Satter.
	Follow him at David Satter, davidsatter.com.
	The book is The Less You Know, The Better You Sleep.
	Russia's road to terror and dictatorship under Yeltsin and Putin.
	I'm Sebastian Gorka.
	This is America First.
	Come to you live from the reliefactor.com studios.
	It's real.
	It works.
	It's liberating over a million Americans right now from their daily pain.
	I am one of those Americans.
	But it's not just me.
	It's people like Yvonne from California.
	This is her story.
	Both my husband and I are in our 70s and are so grateful to have found Relief Factor.
	We tried so many other solutions, but none of them have given us the freedom of being pain-free like Relief Factor.
	Just those two words, pain-free, should be reason enough for you to order the three-week quick starter pack right now at relieffactor.com.
	It'll be at your door in three days or less.
	Take it morning and evening like I do, and I promise you, Dr. G's guarantee, By the end of those three weeks, you will know whether it works for you, like it works for me, Yvonne, and a million of your fellow Americans.
	Write this number down.
	1-800-4-RELIEF, reliefactor.com.
	relief reliefactor.com that's 1-800-473-5433 reliefactor.com All right, hey Russ, mics are hot, but also if we go back
	historically Ukraine prior to 1917 actually predates Rusland proper.
	Well this is, Kievan Rus is the, in fact there was a democratic country and a democratic, prosperous, tolerant, highly commercial by the way, and it is really the source of both contemporary Ukraine and contemporary Russia.
	It is the The Russia originated in Kiev, but more to the point, in terms of more recent history, after the breakup of the Russian Empire, there were co-equal republics that were formed.
	They may have been, in fact, not equal, but according, you know, officially they were
	equal.
	And after the creation of the United Nations, Stalin insisted that Ukraine have its own
	seat in the United Nations as an independent nation.
	So the problem here is that Tucker Carlson was not functioning as a journalist.
	He was functioning as a conduit.
	First of all, no serious journalist would allow Putin to go on for 40 minutes.
	And second of all, he would have been well enough prepared.
	Going into that interview to know that Putin was spewing historical misinformation.
	Well, and also, I mean, give him credit for asking about the Wall Street Journal journalist at the end, but he didn't ask about any of the Russians who are journalists who were killed by Putin.
	No, and nor did he talk about how Putin came to power by an act of terror against his own people.
	And this is what is really hurting us in this country.
	Which is, we don't realize how much we don't know.
	And we are interpreted, because the reaction against wokeism is so, you know, and I agree with it, actually.
	I think it's justified.
	But it's so all-encompassing that we don't realize that there are areas of information and concern for national security that wokeism doesn't cover.
	Right.
	This is super important.
	All right.
	Standby.
	Back to the radio broadcast.
	to come in.
	blew up Nord Stream.
	We?
	You for sure.
	I was busy that day.
	I did not blow up Nord Stream.
	Thank you though.
	So that's the one moment where it's clear who's in command.
	It's the KGB colonel.
	You blew up Nord Stream and Tucker laughs and says, I was busy that day.
	And the other one, did you miss it?
	It was easy to miss.
	Where Putin says, I'm so glad that you tried to join the CIA, but didn't succeed.
	And Tucker is speechless for three seconds, because it's true.
	Tucker did try and join the CIA, but for some reason didn't end up there.
	But of course, the KGB colonel has read his P file.
	He knows about Tucker.
	He uses it against him.
	I'm Sebastian Gawker, this is America First.
	We are dissecting the whole interview with our good friend David Satter.
	But first, what is your role to play in all of this, in wresting back the republic from those who are trying to destroy it?
	It's very easy.
	The easiest thing you can do is if you have a cell phone, don't use it to fund your enemies, those who hate America.
	Yes, you.
	Why am I saying this?
	Because if your cell phone is connected to the big cell phone providers, you know who I'm talking about.
	You're helping people who hate America.
	The big cell phone companies are woke.
	They're left-wing.
	They donate millions of dollars to corporations that try and cancel conservatives.
	They donate millions of dollars annually to Planned Parenthood.
	Why would you fund them with every call you make and every text you send?
	Stop it.
	It's insane.
	Join the good guys.
	The only Christian conservative cell phone company in America is the one I use.
	It's Patriot Mobile.
	They have the same coverage of the nation, a performance guarantee, you keep your phone, keep your number, or get an upgrade, free activation with my name, and also extra discounts for veterans and first responders.
	Why?
	Because Patriot Mobile loves America.
	Switch today, it's super easy, 972-PATRIOT.
	Glenn and his team are superb, or just go to patriotmobile.com slash G-O-R-K-A.
	That's 972-728-7468, patriotmobile.com slash G-O-R-K-A.
	Okay, we're back with David Satter, a man who knows more about Russia and the Kremlin than most people you can shake a stick at.
	David, my son is a classics major.
	He knows a lot about Russian history and he was cooking his birthday dinner yesterday and I was playing the Tucker interview with Putin and my son was listening and literally every 30 seconds, in the first 40 minute answer about, you know, Ukraine is fake, my son was looking up saying, that's a lie?
	That's a lie.
	That's a lie.
	The whole thing was classic desinformatia, was it not?
	Yes, absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	And it was amazing that Tucker Carlson allowed it to run on for 40 minutes and basically gave a forum to Putin so that he could spew disinformation and made no effort to interfere or to question, to raise objections.
	It's clear that Tucker didn't prepare for this interview with any serious research, or if he did have some level of briefing, it was totally ineffective.
	Possibly also influenced by Russian disinformation, because they influence people in this country.
	Let's talk about that influence in this country in a second, but the thing I found most galling, and you can interview dictators, I have no problem with that, but you've got to do it the right way.
	To see the day before a 30 second video from Carlson on Twitter from Red Square from the Kremlin where he says he lectures his viewers that this is a First Amendment freedom of speech issue that I get to interview Vladimir Putin.
	Well, if that's the case, why did he not ask Vladimir Putin about freedom of speech in his country and all the journalists who have been killed because they speak freely?
	Surely that would have been a priority.
	Absolutely, absolutely.
	How many people have been killed who tried to investigate how Putin came to power?
	The apartment block bombing.
	We know that in 1999 four apartment buildings were blown up and that was used as an excuse to start a war against Chechnya.
	It was the second war.
	Why didn't Tucker ask about those people if he was so interested in freedom of speech?
	Since that time, people who've tried to investigate have ended up dead.
	And there's a lot, I know them, I knew them personally.
	They were my friends.
	Why didn't Tucker ask about those people if he was so interested in freedom of speech?
	Is it freedom of speech if a journalist who carries out a legitimate investigation of
	a terrorist act is murdered?
	That doesn't sound like freedom of speech to me.
	Maybe you can help me with this question.
	We're talking to David Satter.
	He's the author of The Less You Know, The Better You Sleep.
	You can follow him at David Satter and at davidsatter.com.
	I've been searching for the answer to this for three, four years now.
	Why is it that there are people who say they are America first, who are conservatives, pro a KGB colonel who kills people because they disagree with him?
	Because I see this incredible parallel.
	What the Biden administration is doing to Trump supporters to Trump officials arresting them, putting them in prison.
	That's what Putin does.
	Why would you support a KGB colonel if you believe in America?
	How is America first also Putin first?
	How did we arrive there?
	How did we get there?
	That's an excellent question.
	And it's something very few people understand.
	In fact, we have to go back to why is it we all hate each other now in this country?
	Why are we at each other's throats?
	What was the beginning of it all?
	Well, it all began, really, with the rise of this woke-ish psychology that has perverted the press, perverted the universities, and has offended the common sense of ordinary Americans.
	But the strength of conservatives, the strength of just ordinary people is really common sense.
	It's not that they're great theorists.
	It's not that they have a tremendous education.
	Sometimes they do, I suppose, but not always.
	But common sense is such an American thing.
	Common sense is what they do have.
	And common sense is what has been grievously offended by people who consider themselves to be educated, but in reality are only half educated.
	We need to have a longer discussion on this issue because this is such a key point.
	No, but this is where we get to the... Now, why Tucker Carlson?
	Hold that thought.
	Why Tucker Carlson?
	He'll answer that for us next.
	We're talking to David Satter.
	Follow him on Twitter at David Satter.

	G-O-R-K-A.
	It's reasonable to say that the whole wokeism is really also being pumped up by Russian
	disinformation that Genesis is Marxist anyway?
	It's reasonable to say that they're doing everything they can to take advantage of it.
	To aggravate it.
	But its roots are in this country.
	I mean, just take, you know, people...
	This is human nature to a certain extent, Sebastian.
	The people look for a cause.
	They look for something to give their life a certain sense of meaning.
	And if a cause seems superficially appealing, it can have great attractive power.
	This is what happened.
	For example, we see with the Palestinians.
	Well, for a long time, the object of international agitation was the South African apartheid system.
	Now, apartheid has fallen in South Africa, so people are looking around for someone else.
	It doesn't matter necessarily that someone else doesn't really suit the role.
	And, as you see, we have demonstrators blocking traffic here in the Washington area, and standing up for Palestine, in some cases standing up for Hamas.
	It would be truly amazing if even a minuscule percent of those people had real background in the issue.
	But it doesn't much matter.
	Because what takes over is her psychology.
	Yes.
	Well, look, let's generalize.
	Hang on, hang on.
	So we're back on the radio and we're going to...
	Dr. G is ready for anything on America First.
	The second volume of his writings is out imminently, Never Speak to Strangers, and other writings from Russia and the Soviet Union.
	It's authored by our good friend David Satter.
	David, just as we were finishing the last segment, he said, the question, why Tucker?
	Why Tucker Carlson for an interview with the President of America?
	Of the USSR, of the Russian Federation.
	Yeah, it isn't even a federation, but that's okay.
	Well, for one thing, Tucker has made the mistake that a lot of people make, that he thinks that because he's been fairly penetrating on the subject of wokeism, which is easy, frankly, to expose, that he therefore knows everything about everything.
	And if the people who have supported wokeism are now supporting Ukraine, well, he's against Ukraine.
	But he doesn't realize, and he probably can't be told, and a lot of people can't be told, that the subject of Russia, the Soviet Union, communism, the conflict of ideas, the aggression against Ukraine, is a completely different subject.
	And has a history that you need to know if you're going to ask questions.
	Absolutely.
	And so, I mean, Tucker Carlson can be used, and in fact the people who are blocking aid for Ukraine are being used, and this interview was calculated in order to reinforce that sabotage of what is not only Ukrainian national security, but American national security.
	I mean, in terms of Tucker, I mean, who's a perfectly nice person, but he's probably, I suppose, but he's not deep, and he's not well-educated.
	And they, you know, using people like that is standard Russian practice.
	They call it ventriloquism.
	That's the word that they used in the Russian security services.
	You become the voice box for their message.
	Yeah, of course, yeah, the conduit, you know, they're...
	Will this help Putin, this interview?
	I don't think so.
	I don't think it's going to make much difference.
	Because the fact is, his message is so outrageous that even channeled through someone like Carlson, who has a following among some people in the States, it's not going to resonate.
	What about domestically?
	Was it good for him domestically?
	It doesn't matter.
	They control the media inside Russia.
	They don't need Tucker Carlson.
	They need Tucker Carlson to show, oh, there's an American hero who's standing up for the Russian point of view, and to convince Russians that they're not being lied to.
	But in fact, Russians pretty well are beginning to suspect that they've been nothing but lied to.
	So Tucker is disinforming Russians, too, up to a point, by his example.
	We need to get away from the idea that we know everything about everything when it comes to the Russia-Ukraine war just because we're anti-woke or just because we don't like what's going on in the schools or because we don't like transgenderism and what's taking place.
	So these are different issues.
	These are different issues and it's very important to understand that just because the people who are woke support the war in Ukraine doesn't mean that's a bad thing.
	Not all of them.
	We've been talking to David Satter.

	Thank you for watching.
	you you
	you The thing that has distinguished U.S.
	economic performance from other countries like Japan or other developed economies is the fact that our pro-immigration policies actually allow us to continue in our economic growth, whereas similar countries with anti or more kind of closed border policies experience economic stagnation when they submit themselves to this xenophobic kind of border panic.
	It's a narrative that Fox News, frankly, seeks to peddle and instill in so many people.
	You mean like that famous Fox News host John Fetterman, AOC, who calls it a crisis?
	I'm confused.
	So hang on, did you understand what she said?
	AOC says the economy's great.
	Oh, okay.
	The economy's great because we have open borders.
	Really?
	And the nations they're coming from have more closed borders.
	That's weird because then how do you get here?
	And that's why they're not so economically, uh, healthy?
	You mean the socialist countries these people are coming from?
	You mean socialism is bad AOC?
	Wow.
	Wow, wow, wow.
	All right, um, we have Jeff, can you explain to me, is your title for Cut 11, is that a real title for a cut?
	The Corinne Jean-Pierre, is that really what she's saying?
	Yes.
	That it's not unusual to talk about dead people being in the room?
	Correct.
	Well, she is the best.
	Okay, I got to hear this.
	Allegedly this is the press secretary for the current incumbent for the White House.
	Don't know how long he's going to be there.
	Cut at 11.
	Corrine Jean-Pierre on her boss talking to dead people.
	What do you say then to Americans who have that concern?
	And they see three times in just a couple days the president getting the name of a leader wrong and referencing somebody who is deceased.
	So look, again, as you just stated in your question to me, I just laid out other leaders in their community or elected officials who have done the same.
	So it is not uncommon.
	Eric, it's not uncommon for political leaders to name dead people who aren't there.
	It's very common, right?
	Maybe Biden's favorite movie of all time is The Sixth Sense.
	I don't know.
	He sees dead people everywhere.
	Yeah, but it's got to be other.
	I mean, we just heard it.
	It's common.
	It's common.
	Other people do it too.
	How desperate are they to make excuses?
	Here is The View.
	Joy Behar.
	They're wearing football jerseys for some reason.
	Maybe there's a rugby game this weekend.
	Saying that A weird reason for not knowing important dates, especially the loss of a loved one.
	Cut 15.
	Why would he want to remember the day that his son died?
	Why?
	You want to block that out of your head.
	You want to remember when he was alive.
	Wait, hold on.
	That fact is getting completely buried because later on in the press conference he talked about being interrogated for hours by the special counsel at the same time he was dealing with an international crisis in Gaza and he flubbed it.
	So you don't remember the time, the day, the date your son dies?
	Because it's painful?
	I don't think anybody can forget the loss of a loved one.
	I lost my parents within three months of each other.
	I know exactly when they died, no matter how painful it is.
	What's your excuse for this, Joe Behar?
	What exactly is Joe Biden saying here?
	Cut to, play cut.
	Mr. President!
	They express concerns about your mental acuity.
	They say that you are too old.
	Mr. President, in December, you told me that you believe there are many other Democrats who could defeat Donald Trump.
	So why does it have to be you now?
	What is your answer to that question?
	Because I'm the most qualified person in this country to be President of the United States and finish the job I started.
	Quite the press conference, the likes of which we have never seen before.
	A press spokesman, not Karine Jean-Pierre, somebody we've never seen before, at least I haven't and Jeff hasn't.
	If Jeff hasn't then you know that it's some kind of Hail Mary pass.
	Push that guy out in front of the podium!
	Somebody called Ian Sands was at the podium earlier today trying to explain all of the Well, the Department of Justice saying that the President is senile in the report about why he stole classified documents when he wasn't even the President or authorized to declassify them.
	Ian Sams, this is from, I'm sorry, I have to give full credit, John Solomon just sent me this.
	When Ian Sams attacked the Department of Justice's report just now on the classified memoranda, he cited three character witnesses for Joe Biden.
	This is really good.
	Character witness number one, a former attorney general found in contempt of Congress.
	Number two, an acting FBI director fired for misleading an inquiry and an ex-prosecutor reversed by a 9-2-0 Supreme Court decision in a major criminal case.
	With references like that, Who needs friends, am I right?
	Now, what we saw yesterday, let's be clear, was a slam dunk.
	When the Department of Justice says in a 388-page report that Vice President and Senator Biden stole classified documents with no skiff, no secure compartmented information facility in which to house them, discussed them with people without clearances, shared and briefed his ghostwriter of his quote-unquote autobiography without that person having a clearance, who denied the discussions only to later have the FBI find the voice recordings of those discussions on the ghostwriter's laptop which by the way just an extra tidbit the ghostwriter deleted those conversations after he was told the FBI was investigating him and he admitted that he deleted them that's a felony as well so the DOJ says these are all felonies every single one of them but they're not going to prosecute him
	Does that remind you of something?
	Reminds me of James Comey.
	Do you remember that 14-minute press conference?
	13 minutes of which, he said what?
	Hillary stole these secrets, put them on an unclassified server in her bathroom, and then the last minute of the 14 minutes, but we're not going to prosecute.
	Sound familiar?
	Yes.
	Can you say two-tier justice system?
	Let's squeeze in a call.
	Let's go to Damien in Hartford, line one.
	Hi, how are you?
	Very well.
	You want to talk about Tucker Carlson and the KGB colonel?
	Oh, yes.
	Oh, yes.
	I think that we need a little bit of a history lesson here, too.
	Go ahead.
	Because Reagan and Gorbachev.
	I'll go back to that.
	And I served under Reagan in the Air Force.
	Good for you.
	Thank you.
	And a lot of us were following what was going on at that time.
	And a lot of us were looking forward to having that peace agreement upheld.
	What peace agreement are you talking about?
	Well, I mean with the SALT II agreements.
	Okay, that's not a peace agreement.
	That's an arms limitation agreement.
	But carry on.
	Right, right.
	But I mean, we were looking forward to having a peace agreement.
	I should have stated it that way.
	But we seemed to be heading in that direction up until Bill Clinton took over.
	And at that point, it became one of, okay, we need to go into Yugoslavia.
	And that, as far as I understood, was a big no-no.
	I don't understand.
	What does that mean?
	There was no peace agreement.
	The Soviet Union collapsed.
	Then there was a civil war in Yugoslavia with human rights atrocities.
	Can you get to the point?
	Because I'm not sure I understand.
	We were also supporting the KLA, which was the Kosovo Liberation Army.
	So what has this got to do with Vladimir Putin's interview with Tucker Damian?
	Well, this has to do with a lot of the background previous to this interview with Tucker Carlson.
	I think that the Russians are seeing us a lot differently than what was being proposed Yesterday's interview has nothing to do with SALT 2, right?
	Nothing.
	We guarantee, the United States, with France and the UK and Russia, guaranteed the security of the Ukraine if they gave their nuclear weapons to Russia.
	You do know that.
	That's called the Budapest Memorandum.
	You do understand that, right?
	So we said, give up your nuclear weapons and you'll be safe.
	What happened?
	Russia invaded.
	So who broke the peace?
	But wait a minute, but previous to that, there was a problem going on there with Donbass and the Donetsk.
	Right, who invaded?
	Damien, which nation?
	Did Ukraine invade Russia or did Russia invade Ukraine?
	And which nation has nuclear weapons?
	Damien, you came to give a history lesson and I suggest you go back to reading some history books.
	Start with the Budapest Memorandum.
	The West promised Ukraine security in exchange for giving her nuclear weapons to Russia.
	And then Russia invaded Crimea.
	Those facts are indisputable.
	You're listening to America First here on the Salem News Channel.
	Stay with us, won't you?
	Stay with us.
	you you
	Knee deep in the swamp.
	First place in your hearts.
	America First with Dr. G. It's Friday, 2nd Amendment Friday.
	We're going to have a new 2nd Amendment guest later in the hour.
	Super excited.
	We'll try and squeeze in some of your calls, so don't go anywhere, Joe and Julie.
	But first, CAR Firearms.
	We are so grateful to our 2nd Amendment Friday sponsor.
	CAR Firearms understands it is the first civil right that makes all the others possible.
	They have an unsurpassed line of weapons.
	That's why I carry a 9mm car.
	They also own the Desert Eagle line of iconic Hollywood weapons, and the historic Auto Ordnance, including the venerable M1 carbine, the Tommy Gun, and the legendary 1911.
	Check out all of those weapons at KAHR.com.
	That's K-A-H-R dot com.
	I'm sure he got a lot of clicks and a lot of views, but who profited the most?
	Here's another clip from Vladimir Putin with Tucker.
	Cut for play cut.
	So twice you've described U.S.
	presidents making decisions and then being undercut by their agency heads.
	So it sounds like you're describing a system that's not run by the people who are elected in your telling.
	That's right, that's right.
	Always nice to have our system qualified by foreign leaders who kill people who disagree with them.
	It's time to talk national security and geopolitics with Senior Counsel to the President of the Heritage Foundation, our good friend Dr. Colonel Jim Carrafano.
	Jim, I've got to ask, because you do big politics, geopolitics, you travel the world.
	Was that interview good for him?
	Because I had an interesting take from somebody who said, It was for domestic purposes.
	He really wasn't interested that it's Tucker, but he just got to look cool in front of his Russian audience.
	Yeah, that probably makes more sense.
	I mean, we didn't hear anything from Putin that we haven't heard before.
	And actually, I thought the brightest spot was that it was so glad that Tucker raised the issue of the American journalist.
	At the end.
	And then it was clear.
	It was pretty clear.
	Well, we're negotiating that.
	So it's clear.
	Oh, the guy really didn't commit a crime or anything.
	It's just a hostage.
	Yeah.
	But we want our criminal back.
	We'll do an exchange.
	Yeah.
	We'll give you Evan for our killer.
	Right.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	So, you know, honestly, I think the next week we'll we'll be on to something else.
	Quite honestly, I just don't think that the interview really moves the needle.
	But, you know, look, you know, every every Genocidal murderer in the world with a government title has had mass media interviews.
	And they always will.
	And this is just another one of them.
	But they should be journalistic.
	They shouldn't be just platforms for more disinformation.
	Alright.
	Let's go to the big story last night, because I want to hear the national security aspect of all of this.
	The report comes out from the Department of Justice.
	The president is not Compass Mentes.
	He's a nice old man that would not be found guilty by a jury, because he's mentally, you know, challenged.
	According to the White House spokesperson, he doesn't have any problems at all.
	This is Corinne Jean-Pierre Katten.
	I'm not sure that was convincing.
	I've never seen him confuse names.
	I think you have, Karine.
	I think you have.
	Now, I don't want to talk politics, but isn't there a national security aspect here that you have a very senior official who's a special counsel, quote-unquote, prosecutor, the Department of Justice, 400 page report on classified documents were willfully retained against statute by a senator, a vice president, but he had mental challenges and that's one of the reasons we're not going to file charges.
	If you're mentally unsound in terms of culpability for management of top secret documents, Should you be in charge of our nuclear weapons?
	So is that a national security problem?
	My answer is no.
	It's not.
	And here's why.
	If Joe Biden was at the top of the game, if he had mental acuity of that chess champion
	in Queens Gambit, our foreign policy, our policies wouldn't be any better.
	Because he's been bad at this his entire political career.
	He's surrounded himself with incompetent officials who are incapable of running a decent foreign policy.
	So the answer is, how would you know the difference?
	Does it make a difference?
	Right.
	So his lack of mental acuity is not the problem of the Biden administration.
	The problem of the Biden administration is they have terrible policies and terrible people running those policies.
	Sorry.
	Go ahead.
	No, I'll give you a perfect example.
	Go ahead.
	So we know for a fact that the Biden guys negotiated with AMLO, the party of Mexico, right?
	Now we don't know for a fact... Hang on, you mean Sisi?
	Golly!
	His geography's a bit challenged.
	So they said, well, the president's been doing this for 40 years.
	Of course he's got to get names right.
	I've been doing it for 50 years.
	I know the difference between Mexico and Egypt.
	I'm just saying.
	OK, so we know they did a deal.
	We don't know that.
	We actually don't have hard evidence.
	So it's some speculation.
	But here's what people think the deal was.
	And we're already seeing some signs of this, right?
	Which is, AMLO promises, yeah, I'll send some troops to the border.
	We'll get the numbers down for you.
	So it looks like you're... Temporary kind of... So we're slowing down.
	And in exchange, you know, what do you get in exchange?
	And there's, you know, and the speculations, a couple of things which all make perfect sense.
	One is I'm really tired of the Texans giving me a hard time.
	I want you to crack down on Texas.
	And so what is Biden doing?
	The Justice Department, they're cracking down on Texas.
	The other thing is, I wish you'd do a solid for my Cuban and Venezuelan friends, right?
	You know, and treat them a little.
	And what are we doing?
	We're totally, you know, taking off Cuba and Venezuela.
	So this is, you think that these are all likely parts of the deal?
	This is all the quid pro quo, right?
	And of course, this is, this is not a heavy lift for the administration because they want
	to do all this stuff, right?
	They want to be tough.
	They want to persecute the governor of Texas for trying to secure the border.
	And they want Venezuela to pump more oil because what they want is, they want lower gas prices, right?
	But they want to say we're going to ban LNG and everything else because they want to placate the climate crowd.
	But they also don't want the price to go up.
	So how do you do that?
	So you ensure that there's more oil and gas on the market.
	So you get the Venezuelans, who are our enemies, to make more money.
	You let the Iranians pump till the cows come home, and you actually don't do anything to shut off the Russian stuff, right?
	So you have our enemies push out oil and gas, so we keep the price down through the election.
	Meanwhile, you're placating the climate challenge by saying, oh, I'm going to shut down LNG.
	But you're missing out the most important point.
	That all of this quid pro quo is temporary and for show.
	This is just because of November.
	Oh, right.
	This is for the election.
	This isn't a geopolitical solution to anything.
	So this is just like the two-state solution, right?
	He has no plan for a two-state solution.
	They're running all over the Middle East looking like idiots.
	Well, we're going to get a two-state solution and then we're going to normalize relations with Saudi Arabia and we're going to get the Iranians to play ball.
	And everybody's looking.
	None of this is going to happen.
	And of course, they know none of it's going to happen.
	They're just saying these things because they're trying to do everything to do to make it look like they've got this stuff under control into the election.
	And that's not the result of his mental decline.
	That's the result of the way to do business.
	It's exactly the kind of stuff that Obama did.
	The country's running exactly the same way.
	You know, Barack Obama could be back in the White House, and I swear to you, on a stack of Bibles, I doubt foreign policy today would be any different at all.
	Well, and because in large part it's Obama holdovers in the second, third tier of all the decision makers across the key agencies, whether it's Jake Sullivan or anybody else.

	We'll be back with Jim after these messages.
	Right.
	But it all just lines up, right?
	And what we're seeing on the ground, it just sounds, it all sounds.
	What difference does that make, what difference does squeezing Texas make for AMLO?
	Mic's on.
	Yeah, you can put these mics on.
	Because he looks tough.
	Right, that he makes Texas look bad.
	But how does that benefit Mexico, if it's Biden looking tough?
	So they think, They can tell Hispanic Americans, Mexican Americans, how to vote in the election.
	Oh, right, right.
	And they want Biden to be seen as the good guy.
	Yeah, yeah.
	And they think being seen as the good guy is cracking down on the guy that hates immigrants.
	Illegal immigrants.
	I want to talk border.
	Can you give me a good border cut from yesterday or the day before?
	Jeff, any ideas?
	Who was lying about the border, the Republicans and Trump?
	We had loads of cuts.
	Interesting.
	Give me the title of the book again.
	Military, what is it?
	Strength?
	Oh, U.S.
	Index of Military Strength.
	U.S.
	Index.
	That's like an annual thing they do, I think.
	I mean, that interview was a complete and utter dumpster fire.
	You mean the press?
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	How did they think that that was good?
	Come in with two?
	Go ahead.
	Maybe they did that on purpose because they want him?
	Do you want one of those things from the shelter?
	Remember the muckracker?
	No, no, but I have muck.
	Did I send you muckracker's contact details?
	No.
	All right, we'll talk about that in the break.
	I'm going to send you his email.
	I want one second.
	You want Crenshaw that wants to border a lot?
	No, no.
	I want a Democrat.
	Who is it that blamed Trump for it?
	Uhh...
	Nikki Haley.
	No, no, no, no, no.
	He's asked for a Democrat.
	I don't remember anything.
	Elizabeth Warren on Colbert saying Mike Johnson's killing the bill for Trump.
	Let's see here, way back.
	So you have the cut sheets?
	Yeah, but it's all the way back to Monday.
	I'm going through the things, just trying to find...
	Oh, Schumer, where he says the mag extremists are ruining it.
	Yeah, good.
	Go to page 15, Eric.
	It's at the bottom.
	Yeah, Schumer.
	That's good.
	I'll come in with... Today's 2, you said?
	Today's two then I'll tee up Schumer after I've done Top 50. Yeah
	30 seconds you
	you you
	Thank you.
	That is your judgment.
	That is not the judgment of the press.
	They express concerns about your mental acuity.
	They say that you are too old.
	Mr. President, in December, you told me that you believe there are many other Democrats who could defeat Donald Trump.
	So why does it have to be you now?
	What is your answer to that question?
	Because I'm the most qualified person in this country to be President of the United States and finish the job I started.
	I think the Afghans would disagree.
	I think the Ukrainians would disagree.
	I think the Israelis would disagree.
	But most importantly, I think most Americans would disagree, especially those who live near the border or who've lost a loved one as a result of the fentanyl that's been smuggled across a literally open border.
	That was the dumpster fire of the press conference last night after the release of the special counsel's report.
	I'm Sebastian Gawker.
	This is Second Amendment Friday.
	Car firearms.
	Why do I carry a 9mm car?
	Because they're just that good.
	Carl Firearms understands the Second Amendment is the first civil right that makes all the others possible.
	Check out their amazing line of weapons at KAHR.com, which include the Desert Eagle, as well as the Auto Ordnance line that include the M1, the Tommy Gun, and the legendary 1911.
	KAHR.com, that's KAHR.com.
	So let's talk the border with you, Jim.
	We have an amazing 180, a total reversal.
	Now it is a crisis.
	John Fetterman says, why can't we fix it?
	But Chuck Schumer has a very strange spin on it all.
	Play cut.
	I say to Speaker Johnson, don't let the 30 hard right people in the House, who are extreme, they wanted us to default, they wanted the government not to pay its debts, they wanted the government to shut down, they're extremists.
	And they're running your show.
	Do the right thing.
	I'm confused.
	For three years we've been told the border was secure and they'd fixed it from the disaster they inherited.
	How is it now suddenly a crisis that the Republicans have to fix?
	And this is exactly why people hate Washington, D.C.
	Why they throw up their breakfast.
	It's literally, they look us in the face and they tell us these outrageous lies and they play absolute pure politics.
	And what's good for my politics is good for the nation.
	And they just expect us to swallow it.
	And, you know, on this one, on border immigration, Everybody knows that this is a lost cause.
	This is not a pig that you could put lipstick on.
	So do you think everybody?
	Do you think the nation?
	Really?
	Even Martha's Vineyard?
	Even the die-hard people that will vote for Joe Biden no matter what.
	They know it's a dumpster fire.
	I'm glad you asked about the border, because we ought to talk about the one issue that we tend not to talk about, and it's the one problem that a new president would have to solve.
	The most important problem.
	And again, I've said, and you know me, I'm not political, right?
	All this nonsense about a bill, and you can have Ukraine, but we need to... There is no way to get a secure border without a different president.
	I'm not recommending anybody.
	There's no bill that fixes this.
	There's no bill.
	There's nothing that fixes.
	The only way this gets fixed is if we have a different president.
	Otherwise, we're just going to have what we have.
	It's just that stark.
	Okay, here's the number one problem the president's going to have to fix,
	and it's not the stuff everybody thinks about.
	Because all that other stuff, we can fix that because we fixed that before.
	But the number one thing that's different than it was, say, four years ago when President Trump left office, or when he got first elected in 2016 is, What's happened in the last three years is that all the illegal migrant networks from all over the world have rerouted to bring people to Latin America and directly into the United States.
	So now we have these pathways and these flows from the Middle East.
	It's like that interview with that Iranian who flew to Turkey, went to Mexico to get into America.
	Africa right Africa from Asia.
	They're literally travel agents organizing this and there are platforms like Venezuela that this is all they're doing is they're just bringing people here That's got to stop because the numbers will not be in the millions.
	They'll be in not in the tens of millions They'll be in the hundreds of millions and once the floodgates just rip open and we see every month it's just so we've got 30 seconds and We've rerouted illegal migrants globally.
	Right.
	How do you change that?
	You have to just shut it down.
	Shut it down.
	Like in that movie, Dark City.
	Shut it down!
	Right.
	It starts in Venezuela and countries like that, which are just literally platforms, you just literally shut them down.
	And to quote my former colleague in the administration, Mark Hawkins, whenever I ask him, what are you going to do with all the illegals?
	Can you deport millions of illegals?
	And what does Mark, former Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, always say?
	Yeah, one by one.

	I'm going to talk right now to a new Second Amendment guest.
	He's one of my new Buddies from SHOT Show, which is why I go to SHOT Show, to meet good people.
	He is the host of the Langley Outdoors Academy on YouTube.
	Subscribe now, it's free!
	And his name is Brayden, Brayden Langley.
	Welcome to America First!
	Well, thank you, sir.
	It was a pleasure to meet you in SHOT Show as well.
	That was a fun time.
	It was a fun time, although standing there for hours smoking cigars and getting very philosophical was rather tiring.
	I'm getting old.
	I'm getting old.
	But I don't know if we can even get it into the seven-minute segment here.
	We might have to get you back for a whole hour to discuss it, because we didn't even talk... Well, let's get that out of the way.
	Let's have one gun question, then we can get philosophical.
	What's your carry gun right now, Brayden?
	I mean, my go-to question or answer on that one is always, what am I wearing?
	But I prefer full-size guns.
	So, you know, I'll be honest, I like to go with like Springfield XDM level.
	I can handle a Glock, of course, but like...
	Something that I can make work, I can be effectual, and then, you know, also still feel like I'm wearing something, you know?
	Can you tell this guy's a talker?
	I asked him to give me a name of a gun, and he goes on for like four paragraphs.
	A little bit of gun trivia for you, Brayden.
	Which individual was the first person to ever review the Proto-XDM when it was still the HS2000 in a national firearms publication in America?
	It was an American handgunner?
	Who was that man?
	I have no idea.
	I wouldn't even begin.
	I'm gonna guess Jerry Michalik just because Handgunner and Jerry and his machine gun.
	Well, you failed.
	It was me.
	1999.
	Well, you know.
	That's my one claim to fame.
	I reviewed the HS2000 before it became the XD and I loved it back then.
	All right, let's try and compress into like five minutes what you told me.
	You had this amazing Approach to winning the war of ideas for conservatives, for gun lovers, for second amendment people.
	Explain, if you will, your methodology.
	Let's do it like this.
	What do we do wrong in terms of our communication, Brayden?
	Well, I believe if we're going back to amongst all the cigar smoke and all the time we were talking, we were really hitting on What essentially boiled down to actual effective communication.
	How do we bring people to our side without turning people off?
	Right?
	And the way that I like to say it is you're going to bring more people to your side if you meet them where they're at.
	So for example, what I mean by that is if you can say, Hey, zoom out a little bit, let's inspire from here, the rights that we all have.
	Here's the things that we all enjoy.
	They're brought to you by this freedom.
	Let's start there.
	Instead of going down into the micro saying, hey, they're going to take your guns right this second and if you don't do this, then XYZ.
	That might be overwhelming to people who are just now getting in.
	We just now had a tremendous influx of new gun buyers.
	I don't know if you've covered that on your show, but... We're allowed to.
	It's like, what, 30, 40 million since COVID, which is huge.
	Yeah, it's massive.
	But those people, and I think there's a propensity to immediately want them to get all the way in, like, you know, gun ownership 404, right?
	And sometimes you've got to start at 101.
	And that's really getting into meeting them where they're at.
	And it's, You can inspire them from the common ideals of freedom, the common ideals of hope versus the specter of fear.
	I think that's really where.
	Oh, hang on, hang on.
	You said something fascinating.
	It's coming through the cigar haze now.
	Um, explain the difference of the motivational quality of a message of fear and a message of hope and heroes.
	Let's just, let's just, that was fascinating.
	Explain that Brayden.
	So in my personal experience, and I think that is something that we really connected on, right?
	You can inspire individual motivation for a short amount of time, very intense heat through fear, right?
	Now you're going to have to do one of two things.
	Either that fear fades or you find something else to have a fear response on.
	You see this in our political dialogue a lot.
	However, hope.
	Is the one thing that is not going to be crushed.
	And if you have hope and you have unification and message and ideals, you're going to be able to inspire leadership and you're going to be able to inspire forward momentum for a combined goal through hope and build a long-term versus the short burst of fear.
	If you're looking at energy release, hope has a longer lifespan.
	Fear may be more intense, but it has to be reinforced.
	Hope is back on the principles and the message of freedom.
	And that's kind of what we were high level talking about.
	Alright, we need to unpack this in a far longer fashion, but give us one example of how to do that, or somebody who's doing it right that doesn't say, OH NO THEY'RE COMING AFTER OUR GUNS or something like that, but more positive.
	You know, it's and we hit on this.
	We stumbled about this for a moment.
	There's not a single individual that only focuses on the hope angle or the, you know, the fear angle.
	There's kind of a mixture among the spectrum.
	But if you were to look at something that Trump does very effectively, right?
	Trump hits on, this is our country, this is, we're going to make America great again, we are going to go back to those ideals.
	He hits on those common themes consistently.
	And that's not based on, go get this person, or they're going to do this.
	That's based on, we have this country, we love this country, and we're going to move forward for the love of that country.
	That's what the left doesn't get.
	The left works in demographic buckets and targeting of different buckets versus different buckets, and that's the way that it operates.
	It drives on fear.
	What Trump taps into is the hope and the love of our country, which is why it's enduring beyond everything that they can throw at him.
	That's a perfect example of what we're talking about.
	I love it.
	We really need you back for a whole hour, because John Lovell may be a warrior poet.
	I think Braden Langley is a philosopher pistolero.
	I mean, seriously, dude.
	And this has been sitting on my desk, I just remembered, since Monday, because I went to the gun show with somebody who's a member of my team.
	who is now a purchaser and an owner of his first ever firearm.
	And we went to the Trump MAGA table, and they gave me this flag.
	The MAGA store from Philadelphia gave me the God, guns, and Trump flag!
	That's what it's all about.
	Trump gives a positive message.
	So that's why we are here fighting every single day.
	Follow this guy.
	It is the Langley Outdoors Academy channel on YouTube at Langley Outdoors.
	Keep doing what you do, Brayden, and we'll get you back.

	On the side of the US Constitution, America first.
	They've been waiting so very patiently.
	Julie, California, happy Friday.
	Good to talk with you again, Dr. Gorka.
	So I'll get quick to the point, because I know your time is precious.
	What steps do you think the NRA could do to get back into the fight for our rights?
	because here in California we just we had a short period of week of no
	background checks on our ammo and now that got repealed and it's back in the game.
	So there's a great organization I met one of the representatives of the California Pistol and Rifle Association.
	I think they're your best bet right now.
	They're fighting very hard across the state.
	The NRA is moribund.
	The NRA is dead in the water.
	Wayne Lapierre basically destroyed it.
	It needs new leadership with vision and energy.
	I vote for Donald Trump Jr.
	So the only way to save the NRA is to get somebody in there who's not a grifter, who actually is fighting for our Second Amendment rights.
	So Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr., we need new leadership.
	They, either of those, have got my vote.
	Great question, Julie, and thank you for waiting on the line.
	Let's get Julia her choice of our new t-shirts.
	She gets it for free.
	You can get yours at SebGorkerStore.com.
	Let's go to Joe Orange County, line one.
	Yes, Dr. Gorka, thank you for taking my call.
	There's three things that go into this issue that they just came up with President Biden
	that actually the state and the House and the Senate have the responsibility to react to.
	One, first they need to get rid of McConnell.
	They need to change the leadership in the Senate so we have an effective minority.
	Well, of course.
	Yeah, we know that.
	McConnell's the worst of the rhinos.
	Next.
	Right.
	Exactly.
	Going at the Article 25 through the House, but with two main points... That's not how it works.
	You're talking about the 25th Amendment?
	Yeah, the... The 25th Amendment is a vote of the Cabinet.
	It has to be half of the Cabinet plus the Vice President.
	It's got nothing to do with Congress.
	Okay, so that's what I was going to say.
	You would have to get with probably your co-host Mark Levine to figure out what's the legal way of doing it.
	Yeah, sadly it would have to be the cabinet, Biden's cabinet, that gets rid of him.
	That's never going to happen.
	Third thing?
	Well, that way we look at, one, that if he's incompetent, how can he execute any new executive orders?
	Well, how about this?
	How about any of the orders he's already signed?
	If you're proven medically senile, no contract you wrote is a legal instrument.
	You know that, Joe?
	It's a real amazing question.
	How is anything that Joe Biden has done for three years even legal if he's not mentally sound?
	Bingo.
	Those are the two points. Bingo. Yeah, well he can't do any new ones and we got to go back and look at what point was
	he incompetent.
	Bingo. If he was senile before he was inaugurated, then the last three years anything he signed is not a legal contract.
	Good stuff.
	Thank you guys.

	Well, for a man that don't go healed, you run your mouth kind of reckless, don't you?
	No need to go healed to get the bulge on a tub like you.
	Is that a fact?
	That's a fact.

	Amen.
	Thank you.
	A very different kind of Wyatt Earp.
	He doesn't use a weapon.
	He just slaps around a strangely portly Billy Bob Thornton.
	I don't think most people realize who's actually the crooked car dealer.
	An iconic scene from a movie I didn't pick.
	We're going to try and make it great.
	It's Making Movies Great Again.
	The choice is Tombstone from our co-host, the one, the only, Mr. Reagan, a.k.a.
	What was I going to say there?
	A.K.A.
	Chris Coles.
	Chris, I'm not into westerns.
	Tell me why you chose this movie.
	I'll be honest.
	I actually chose this movie because it's my friend Kurt's favorite all-time film.
	And I've seen it multiple times.
	It comes on TV all the time.
	But I don't think I've ever seen it from beginning to end.
	The original picture, not edited for TV.
	And I've got to say, at least for me, I'm very, very happy I chose this.
	And I and I sat through it.
	I watched it to the end, just, you know, doing nothing else, just watching the film, because I actually think this may be at least near the very top of one of my favorite films that we've
	ever done. And I think probably should be considered one of the greatest films of all time. This was
	really fun for me. I absolutely love this movie. So this is deemed, you know, the conventional wisdom
	and it's got a great, you know, rating amongst the viewers and the critics as
	well as the film that kind of not reinvented the Western but became a kind of benchmark
	for the modern Western. It came in 1993. It was a successful movie and it tweaked the
	established spaghetti Western kind of Clint Eastwood or the prior John Wayne type of cowboy movie.
	With an incredible ensemble cast and also visually one of the early comments I read about it as I was prepping for today's show was just the way the Earp brothers dress is actually more accurate to the period they didn't all walk around in leather chaps and you know massive 10-gallon hats very much Puritan very simple clothing but very elegant clothing so even stylistically this put a new spin on it but I'm gonna have to say it right up front here Chris and we're gonna walk through it because I enjoyed it because of the performances I mean the performances here are some of the best performances the ensemble cast members have given in my opinion
	But I don't know, I might get stripped of my American citizenship, but as a genre, Western just doesn't do it for me.
	I don't know why.
	Are you into Westerns?
	No, I'm actually not really so much into Westerns.
	Look, the reason that some of the Westerns that have been considered classics over the years are classics, I think, is because they are just top tier films.
	Yes.
	You know, good, the bad, the ugly, you know, some of these great films, a lot of what Elevated the genre in this way or that way.
	Some people didn't like it because it wasn't so much like the old John Wayne Westerns.
	I do think there's some really great John Wayne Westerns.
	My grandfathers were actually split on this.
	I had one grandfather who loved John Wayne and another grandfather who preferred the quick draw artists and he didn't like John Wayne because he's too slow.
	But you know, so yeah, it's true.
	It's true.
	But but yeah, different people appreciate different kinds of Westerns.
	But at the end of the day, the great ones, the ones that are remembered tend to be remembered just because they are so good.
	And I feel like this movie is one of those films.
	You know, it's such a quotable movie.
	There are so many moments like the clip we just saw.
	He goes, you're going to do I mean, who writes stuff like that?
	Such a brilliant line.
	And you really feel like you're there.
	I felt like, you know, it's kind of weird.
	I used to think of history as as stylized as the movies tend to make it.
	But as I grow older, I realize that throughout the generations, I think, I'm not sure how much people change.
	Sure, there are eras in which people try to be better human beings, and there are eras where people try to be more progressive and interesting, you know, and they're less interested in being good people.
	But for the most part, human beings are human beings.
	And this movie, despite the fact that there's a little bit of 90s-ness in there, like maybe the way some of the actors talk and stuff like that, I do think that they really humanize these characters.
	These are characters from history, real-life characters.
	Is this exactly how things played out in that historical drama back then in those days?
	No.
	These are actors playing The parts of these historic figures, these historic figures, we don't really know exactly what they were like.
	So this is some kind of an interpretation, right?
	But they've interpreted it in such a way that I really feel like these are real humans.
	And, you know, the stuff that they're going through, you can empathize with.
	It's kind of weird choices as well.
	Like, you know, not everything in this film makes these characters seem like perfect human beings.
	You know, they're flawed and they're struggling.
	You know, you really feel like when his brother dies or, you know, at the end when Doc You really feel sad for these characters.
	You know, they did such a good job with the acting.
	I think everything came together with this picture.
	I think it's a great film.
	I will say that, you know, you're right in terms of it's not a three hour movie and it has a huge cast.
	Therefore, you don't have a lot of time for exposition and character development of everybody in it.
	But nevertheless, Because, you know, they are at the top of their game.
	Everybody here is at the top of their game.
	You really do connect with these people.
	And even, as you said, with some unusual casting.
	I mean, I am a massive Powers Booth fan.
	I think Powers Booth is one of the biggest underrated, you know, Uh, character actors of the last 50 years, and to make him, you know, the deputy, or the, or the ringleader, really, I thought he was the ringleader, and then he dies in the river, and I think, oh my gosh, who's the bad guy now?
	What, it's Michael Biehn, who's the hero from Terminator and Aliens?
	Are you kidding me?
	So these kind of reversal castings of Powers Booth, the hero from Red Dawn, Michael Biehn, the hero from numerous Cameron, James Cameron movies, and dude, I, I don't, I don't question for a second that Powers Booth, that Ringo, Michael Biehn are evil SOBs.
	And then, I don't know about you, but I look at Val Kilmer, and I think he's sick.
	I mean, for two hours, I think this dude is literally coughing up a lung because he sells it so well.
	I may not be into the Westerns, but I can appreciate a good performance, as can our friend, our co-host of Making Movies Great Again.
	We are celebrating 1993's Tombstone.
	So much more to discuss.

	Let's get him back in the White House.
	It's up to us.

	Donald Trump did nothing wrong.

	All that and so much more, including all of my books at sebgorkastore.com.

	Alright, Pale Horse.
	Hey, Johnny.
	What'd I miss convener?
	Sick horses don't guess, huh?
	He's quoting the Bible.
	Revelations.
	Behold a pale horse.
	The man who sat on him was death.
	And hell followed with him.
	Now one of the reasons I started on the wrong foot here with this movie chris was the opening scene because the opening scene as far as i'm concerned is like a beat for beat uh theft from the the magnificent seven right i mean it is the poor mexican village
	...is ransacked and all the innocent people at the festival, at the wedding, are murdered by the bandits who, in this case, aren't Pancho Villa or some Mexican bandit, but it's actually, you know, the cowboys with their red sashes.
	Do you think there's a little bit of too much borrowing going on in the first scene of the movie?
	I actually think it's worse than that.
	I think that the writer of this script did an excellent job, I will say that.
	However, structurally, there are some things that I don't believe that he just invented the structure of this film.
	I think that he read books on how to write films, and then he kind of wrote those beats into the film.
	Right.
	So like there's a scene when this guy's smacking around Wyatt Earp's horse.
	And Wyatt Earp comes over and he slaps the guy around.
	He goes, doesn't feel very good, does it?
	And there's a book, a screenwriting book called Save the Cat.
	I've never read this book before.
	But my buddy told me about it.
	I mean, everybody talks about it, but my buddy had read it.
	And he said that the concept for the name of the book, Save the Cat, comes from the idea that if you have a hero come in early in this script and you want to identify them as a hero, have them save the life of a cat or have them do, you know, like save a baby.
	You're giving away all the Hollywood secrets!
	I know.
	I know.
	So he goes and he saves this animal, right?
	Which which obviously identifies wider as the hero.
	These guys are, you know, going into this village, killing these innocent people.
	OK.
	Identifies them as the cruel villains.
	And being in particular, it's a bit is a particularly cruel.
	He kills the priest.
	Yeah.
	Right.
	And actually being BN's performance is so good.
	He actually gives one of the most chilling moments I've ever seen in film.
	I'm just sitting here And I hear this line.
	They're watching a play.
	And they're watching a play about, you know, the Faustian bargain.
	Selling your soul to the devil.
	And, you know, his partner in crime there, he turns to him and he says, you know, he says, oh, this is what I would do if I made a deal with the devil.
	He goes, what would you do?
	And without, like, there's no sarcasm.
	It's not a joke.
	The guy's just sort of staring into space.
	And he goes, I've already done it.
	And like, it's so, It's so real.
	Yeah.
	I don't know how Bean did that, but I felt like that character really had done it, and he knew that he had sold his soul to the devil.
	He was going to hell, and he knew it.
	Right.
	And that was a cold moment in that film.
	As a result, and we're allowed to do this because we're the adults and this is our show, I'm going to jump right to the end.
	Don't you find The climax, anti-climactic, because I love the idea that Doc Holiday lies.
	He pretends that he's dying of consumption in the hospital bed so that he can't back up his body, Wyatt Earp, for this showdown.
	With Ringo.
	And then what does he do?
	He outflanks him.
	He gets there before Wyatt does.
	He does.
	He knows he's faster than Wyatt.
	And he saves his buddy by killing Ringo.
	But it's like that whole, that last moment.
	And we love the setup.
	Best friend lies to save his best buddy because he's a better gunman.
	But then that, that, that showdown, it lasts for about 40 seconds.
	And you just have Doc pull his gun and blast Bean through the skull, and it's like, oh, end of film, I guess.
	Wasn't it a little anticlimactic?
	And it does strip Wyatt Earp of his moment.
	Yes.
	His moment to challenge the villain.
	But here's the thing.
	Here's the thing.
	I'll walk around the space a little bit so that I can properly explain this.
	He's got to get all thespian on us now.
	No, really, because this to me is not a film about Wyatt Earp.
	And in fact, the actor, Kurt Russell, who was sort of co-directing, if not fully directing this film, went into the post-production and he stripped out a lot of his own scenes.
	Because it wasn't really a film so much about Wyatt Earp.
	It was a film about friends.
	About brothers, really.
	About brothers.
	And so I think it's okay.
	It's okay to give that particular moment to Doc Holliday because it was about the love of these men that, you know, they really had this brotherly love, even though Doc Holliday wasn't his actual brother and all these other guys were, right?
	Doc Holliday and him did have this relationship where they had each other's back.
	You know, they were there for each other.
	And there's a great moment where somebody says, why do you do this?
	You know, you're dying.
	You should be sick.
	You know, you're sick.
	You should be in bed.
	And he goes, well, wide ups my friend.
	And he says, well, I got lots of friends.
	And he goes, I don't.
	And it was such a beautiful moment because you're like, OK, this guy is—and, you know, men, we really do—there's this virtue, this value that I think is often lost in the modern age, which is loyalty and your duty to your friends and your fellow men.
	This is something that Donald Trump really cherishes, loyalty, right?
	And if you betray Trump, he goes crazy, right?
	This is—everybody talks about this in the press.
	Everybody talks about this.
	In the media, he's like, if you betray Trump, he will turn on you.
	But if you're loyal to him, he loves you.
	Right.
	And I think this is a really old fashioned value that we've really lost.
	And, you know, when you're a kid and you have very close friends, I had
	some very close friends as a boy.
	Uh, yeah, you, you kill for those friends.
	You die for those friends.
	You defend them with your life.
	And, you know, I think we miss that in the modern culture.
	And we miss that in the modern media as well.
	This is a film where they tried to be... I think they tried to be as accurate as they could to history.
	And they also tried to show at the same time that relationship that you just don't see all the time anymore these days.
	And I really love that aspect of the movie.
	I'll tell you, that's the thing that really resonated with me.
	You're right, it deprives him of his hero moment.
	When Doc Holliday creeps to that, you know, riverbed and kills Ringo instead of Wyatt Earp.
	But you know why it touched me?
	Because between male friends, one of the most powerful bonds you have
	is when you do something important for the other one, when they don't ask you to do it for them,
	and when they don't want you to do it for them.
	When you just say, I'm sorry, I'm his best buddy, I am going to do it for my buddy because he's my buddy.
	And that's what that moment is about.
	And I think you're absolutely right, in the modern age, utterly, completely lost.

	Okay, um, let's go from the sappiest part of the movie to one of my favorite parts.
	Let's go to the chick flick bit of it, uh, wired up like in love or something.
	Let's go.
	What do you want out of life?
	How do you get these questions?
	Just answer.
	Well, I don't know.
	Make some money, I guess.
	Maybe Have some children, right?
	Doesn't suit you.
	Well, how would you know?
	It just doesn't, that's all.
	Well, I ought to know my own mind, and I'm telling you what suits me as a family and kids.
	Suits me right down to the ground.
	In fact, that's my idea of heaven.
	All right, what's your idea of heaven?
	Room service.
	He's laughing again.
	Yeah, sadly in real life that actress never got married, never had kids, got the Margaret Sanger Award and is a massive pro-abortionist activist, so I guess a bit of typecasting there.
	Let's leave us on the screen and add one of my favourite parts.
	Let's talk about... yeah, you're not arresting us today Sheriff.
	All of you are under arrest.
	I don't think I'll let you arrest us today, B-hand.
	Yeah, sorry, not happening.
	When a man's a man and if you're not, you're not.
	Massively important aspect for this movie, I want it to be noted, all of our millions of listeners and viewers, Sheriff Behan is the only person in this movie who had a fake moustache.
	Every other moustache, including Kurt Russell's masterpiece of manliness that even outshines Magnum P.I.' 's tache, they're all real moustaches.
	That's pretty impressive.
	That is dedication to the art, is it not, Chris?
	I feel like I should grow one.
	What do you think?
	Handlebar mustache?
	Big, big, big, big handlebar one.
	What do you think?
	Yeah, I mean, they're beautiful mustaches.
	I mean, you know, I heard there's a rumor that all these guys were running around on set.
	They were just like admiring their, they just love them.
	They were just like, you know, through it.
	I've never grown a mustache before in my life.
	This is about as long as it gets and then I shave it off.
	This image, by the way, of the four brothers walking in front of the burning house, I think that's so iconic.
	Yeah, and there's no real reason for the burning house.
	They don't explain it.
	Suddenly burning in the middle of a tombstone and they're just like, huh.
	All right.
	And then, yeah, that kind of... I think they've put that on, like, the DVD and stuff like that.
	Yeah, it's definitely, like, an iconic image, beautiful image.
	Now, I mean, look, there is something... We talk about this a lot in the conservative circles these days, the sort of getting back to manliness.
	You got all these alpha male guys that are trying to explain, like... Somebody should do a manhood hour on a national radio show every week.
	What do you think, Eric?
	Should somebody do that?
	I think that sounds revolutionary.
	But you know, you know, manliness isn't always the you know, the cliche stuff, you know, you don't have to have a room absolutely just packed full of guns.
	But it but it helps.
	But I mean, when you want real credentials, if you're not if you're not smoking a really big cigar in a room packed with guns, how manly Can you be Chris?
	I mean, it's a question.
	I That's a little inside baseball.
	These are some inside jokes.
	Yeah, yeah.
	All right.
	No, but look, I'm actually thinking about doing a sketch.
	Okay, this is completely off time.
	Now we're going into crazy land.
	But just real quick, I'm thinking about doing a sketch where this guy has to explain to his wife that You know, like the marriage has been on the rocks for a while now, and she doesn't know why, and he doesn't know why.
	Oh, he does know why, but he's not talked to her.
	And he's talking to his buddy, and he's like, yeah, I'm gonna have to tell her that this year I'm voting for Trump.
	And so they have to figure out, like him and his buddy gotta figure out how to like let his wife in on this.
	And he's like, oh, you know, I should, you know, his buddy goes, I got an idea.
	Make yourself actually more Conservative, more masculine.
	He's like, what do you mean?
	He goes, because secretly, these feminist lefty girls, they actually all really want a conservative guy.
	So if you take out, if you stop being the beta male that you've been for years, and you become this badass conservative, she's not going to care that you're voting for Trump.
	So this is their plan, right?
	And I won't tell you the ending because there's a twist and it's beautiful.
	But Yeah, he's got to like eat steak now.
	And he's got to like buy a pickup truck and all this kind of stuff.
	And like, look, there are all the cliche things about being a man that you know, but there's also like, you know, just being a gentleman being a moral person doing the right thing, having this loyalty to your friends, this kind of stuff.
	And I actually feel like this movie really epitomizes what at least what it used to be to be masculine.
	Because it's not always the cliche stuff.
	Some of it's just like being a good person.
	And I feel like they really explore that in this movie because, you know, they're a little bit scoundrelly, especially like Doc Holly's a bit of a scoundrel.
	But you do get the sense that they're trying to do the right thing, at least when it counts.
	And I think that, you know, it epitomizes every man should watch that.
	They want to be a man.
	Watch Tombstone.
	Yeah, it's an important point that these aren't, what are they called in the industry?
	How they've destroyed the leading roles and everyone is a female hero.
	It's a Mary Sue, right?
	A Mary Sue?
	Mary Sue, right.
	None of these men, none of these men are perfect.
	I mean, even Wyatt Earp who says, I'm not a lawman, I don't do that anymore.
	Even the way he just muscles his way into the saloon, takes over the car table is like, Yeah, it's a little slimy.
	They're not perfect individuals, but where it matters, they are good men.
	You are listening, you are watching Making Movies Great Again with me, Sebastian Gorka, and our good buddy Chris Coles.

	He's bluffing, let's rush him.
	No.
	He ain't bluffing.
	Music lover.
	You're next.
	You're a drunk piano player.
	You're so drunk you can't hit nothing.
	In fact, you're probably seeing double.
	I have two guns.
	One for each of you.
	I have two guns, one for each of you.
	Eric, who are the two bad guys there?
	I mean, this cast is just full of easter egg casting.
	Who are the bad guys?
	I love this.
	So the first guy, Ike Clanton, the one that Kurt Russell puts the gun to his forehead, that is Steven Lang, who is most well known to modern audiences now as the main villain in James Cameron's Avatar movies.
	And then the other guy, the music lover that Val Kilmer holds up, is none other than Thomas Hayden Church, who I most well know, and I think most of them know him as...
	He was in the third Spider-Man movie as Sandman.
	Right, right.
	Amazing cast.
	All right, let's go through a little of these, Chris, because we've got to duff our caps.
	Of course, Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer, superb performances.
	Powers Booth as Curly Bill, playing a bad guy, and he does it so creepily so well.
	Ringo, Michael Biehn, usually always a hero.
	Bill Paxton, the late, great Bill Paxton.
	Sam Elliott playing...
	Sam Elliott, who he always plays with that amazing moustache.
	We've got Billy Zane!
	Billy Zane is the thespian, the slightly fae actor who of course gets killed.
	Billy Bob Thornton as the dodgy card shop or the dealer.
	Joanne Pakula, who of course from one of my favorite movies, we're gonna have to review that at one point, Gorky Park.
	She's one of the the victims of the Gorky Park movie.
	And then who have we got to mention?
	Oh my gosh, the narrator.
	How on earth did they get Robert Mitchum to be the narrator?
	That is quite the cast, is it not?
	Well, because I think he was supposed to play Like the main villain or something?
	I can't remember.
	Or maybe Virgil Earp?
	I can't... Bill, he was supposed to play a major character in the film.
	And he was deemed to be too old.
	Right, right.
	Or something happened.
	I don't remember exactly.
	He couldn't do it.
	So they instead just made him the narrator.
	But yeah, he does a fantastic job, doesn't he?
	Well, they all do.
	They all do.
	And the nice thing is, I don't know if you agree, but when you have casting, Not deliberately, but with a couple of these actors, goes against type, and it works.
	It's like, it's all the more powerful.
	Oh, you're talking about the villains, I think.
	Yeah, like Pals Booth, like Michael Biehn.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, you don't expect Biehn to be a villain, and he is so terrifying.
	And I talked about that a little bit.
	But yeah, I mean, some of these characters are to type.
	I mean, you expect, you know, Virgil Earp, you expect him to Be the heroic, you know, strong man that he is, Sam Elliott, you know, with that booming voice.
	And, you know, yeah, like, for sure, for sure, the Doc Holliday character, I don't know.
	I'm sure other actors could have played that well, but the way Val Kilmer played that character is legendary.
	I mean, I actually think that people remember that character In this film, better than anything else in the movie.
	And it doesn't hurt that he's got some of the best lines in the movie.
	Well, it doesn't hurt that Huckleberry is now a global meme.
	Right?
	I mean, that is a testament to Val Kilmer's performance.
	It might not have been if it was a different actor that didn't do quite as good of a job.
	I don't know how he became this character, but like you said earlier, you believe that he's sick throughout the film.
	And yet you also believe that he can whip those guns out faster than anybody else there
	and that all the villains in the movie are terrified of him.
	You know, at the end, Bean, when he figures out that, oh, it's not Wyatt Earp that's come
	to see me, it's Doc Holliday, you see the fear in his eyes.
	That moment of acting, Bean, oh my gosh, he's like, oh, I was just having fun.
	That was just a game.
	And then what is Doc's response?
	I wasn't playing a game.
	And the guy's like, uh-oh.
	And by the way, I mean, you were born in America, in Oregon.
	What does it mean to be somebody's huckleberry?
	I didn't learn that in the naturalization thing.
	What does it mean to be somebody's huckleberry?
	Well, I'll tell you something interesting.
	I believe Virgil Earp is buried in Oregon.
	And Sam Elliott is also from Oregon.
	Wow.
	So Sam Elliott, it's, yeah, actually, like that voice, that accent is kind of, I'm used to it.
	Like that's, that's from like, where I'm from, kind of.
	He's not so Southern, it's not so much, it's, it's from Oregon, his voice.
	But I, we never use that term.
	I don't know where that comes from.
	It's bizarre.
	The only thing people know it from is this movie, I think.
	I think it was a real term.
	As the gun geek here, I have to say I am so delighted, especially when you see the big, you know, widescreen moments of Val Kilmer pulling out his long bunt line colt.
	They actually show these guns recoiling.
	I mean, it's fake, right?
	Because there's no bullet to create the recoil.
	But every time they fire, unlike most movies, you know, including, you know, the John Wick movies, the guns actually, they simulate the recoil of the weapon, which means these are actors who took it seriously.
	And, by the way, for those who aren't familiar with what Chris said in an earlier part of this show, It has been confirmed by none other than Val Kilmer that Kurt Russell really was the director for this movie.
	Just as, you know, Steven Spielberg was the real director for Poltergeist, the first director was fired.
	He's actually the scriptwriter, Kevin Jarre, Who is the son of Maurice Jarre, the composer.
	He just couldn't bring it in on time.
	The rushes were late.
	So they brought in another director who was just, you know, the named director, George Cosmatos, whose record included First Blood and Rambo 2.
	But he was just the name for the billboards.
	And the guy who really directed it was Kurt Russell.
	If that's the case, Chris, that's pretty impressive.
	No, it's amazing.
	And a lot of people give Kurt Russell, like, from the set, they give Kurt Russell credit and talk about, like, this basically was his baby.
	This was his movie.
	Talking about the guns real quick, they took care to take beautiful shots of the guns.
	I mean, you really see these guns in this movie.
	And also, the way Doc Holliday shoots has such a unique flair and character to it.
	You know, and he's supposed to be the fastest gun.
	But he, it's almost like an elegant, uh, sloppiness or something like that.
	Cause he is a bit drunk all the time.
	He makes it, he makes it look easy.
	He's he's fast, but it's kind of casual.
	It's kind of casual.
	It's it's he's like whipping the guns around and somehow you kind of buy it.
	He's not aiming properly or anything.
	It's just like shooting from the hip, but you buy it.
	It really works.
	It's a stylized kind of way of shooting.
	The rest of the guys all kind of shoot the way you would expect a marksman to shoot a gun.
	He doesn't, but it works.
	It adds some character to him.
	A lot of this film is like that, where This character has this quirk or this interesting thing about them or really makes the character their own.
	Everybody was trying really hard in this film, but they weren't.
	But they did such a good job.
	It doesn't look like they're trying hard.
	And I think it's just magnificent.
	Right.
	Small details, but it doesn't make it look like artifice.
	It looks like it's actually part of the character.
	We're making movies great again.

	Alright, Huckleberry time!
	I didn't think you had it in you!
	I'm your Huckleberry.
	Why, Johnny Ringo.
	You look like somebody just walked over your grave.
	But it's not with you, Holiday.
	I beg to differ, sir.
	We started a game we never got to finish.
	Play for blood, remember?
	I was just fooling about.
	I wasn't.
	And so endeth the lesson with a very quick shot to the cranium from Doc Holliday.
	All right.
	Last thoughts?
	Ratings?
	Clearly you think this is one of your top movies, right?
	You know, it wasn't before I watched it this time.
	There's something about just sitting in the dark and watching a film where, you know, the pacing of this movie It's a little slower than a movie that you'd watch today.
	Yeah.
	You know?
	And what's interesting about that is I think that TV was always pretty fast-paced.
	Like, you watch an episode of The A-Team back in the 80s, or you watch an episode of MacGyver, Quantum Leap, these movies from the 80s, and they were always pretty quick-paced.
	You watch a movie in the cinema, and there are these kind of long, drawn-out scenes, like in this movie early on.
	You've got the Earp family, right, kind of, you know, going to Tombstone.
	You see them going to Tombstone.
	It takes time to watch this.
	They don't tend to put those kind of longer, drawn-out scenes in movies anymore, but it does give the film some weight.
	It gives it gravity that films today don't have.
	And I think it's because there's this expectation in Hollywood that people have lost the attention span to be able to pay attention to that sort of thing.
	I don't think that's true.
	I think if it's a movie, you should give it the gravity that it deserves, give it the time that it needs for people to really get invested and appreciate what they're watching, you know, use a little cinematography here and there.
	And yeah, and I, again, it's like the name of this show, Make Movies Great Again, they just don't make movies like they used to.
	And I think that this is really, truly a great film.
	Um, how are we going to rate it?
	What are the units of measurement?
	Right, before we get to that, I want to just play one more cut.
	It's my one of my favorite scenes from the movie.
	It's, um, they're leaving after their brother has been killed.
	Or are they?
	Take a good look at it, Mike, because that's how you're going to end up.
	The cowboys are finished, you understand me?
	I see a red sash, I kill the man wearing it!
	So run, you turd!
	Run!
	Tell all the other turds the law is coming!
	You tell them I'm coming!
	And hell's coming with me, you hear?
	Hell's coming with me!
	Cowboys are finished.
	I'm coming and hell's coming with me.
	Yeah, you believe Kurt Russell.
	All right.
	Units of measure.
	Well, it can't be red sashes.
	So what should it be?
	What unit of measure?
	Mustaches!
	It's got to be mustaches out of 10.
	All right.
	Edelbar mustache.
	You're doing for a modern audience.
	I'm doing it for the canon of great movies.
	What rating do we give it?
	Let me just say quickly, that scene was the moment when the film shifted from a movie about brotherhood, which the movie continued to be about until the end, to be fair, but it shifted a little bit to a movie about, what is it?
	A reckoning, as Doc Holliday puts it.
	That's when the movie shifted and it became Pretty cool after that, I feel like.
	People love that part of the movie from that point on.
	But it continues to be about brotherhood, and I think it's a great film.
	I actually think that for the right audience, people will love this.
	It's one of those films that I just think will live in infamy to last forever.
	You can watch it 100 years from now, and it'll still be amazing just because it was so well made.
	It's hard for me to give it anything other.
	I'm going to give it a 10 out of 10.
	That's what I'm going to do.
	10 out of 10.
	Sorry.
	10 mustaches out of 10 mustaches.
	All right.
	I'm going to be nice to you, Chris.
	Because I'm an American now and I have to like Westerns, I'm going to give Tombstone because of the performances.
	Eric, do I give it 7.5 or do I give it 8?
	Oh, you got to give it at least an 8.
	All right.
	I'll give it 8 handlebars.
	8 Kurt Russell thick, bushy, magnum PI mustaches out of 10 for the canon.
	All right.
	Successful movie, I forgot to mention.
	$25 million to make.
	It's like peanuts.
	Grossed $73 million in 1993.
	Right, what is left to do is pick a next movie.
	And it's my choice.
	We can go heavy, or we can go fun.
	Should we go heavy?
	I think... I think I'm going to go heavy here.
	One of my favorite movies ever.
	Although there's one scene I can't even watch to today, it's so horrific.
	But man, it's a good movie.
	Are you ready for the Chicago way, Chris?
	Are you ready?
	Let's do the Untouchables next week.
	The Untouchables.
	Kevin Costner.
	It's on my list.
	It's actually on my list.
	Well, now you can cross it off.
	All right.
	I think you can predict in advance what score I'll give it, but we're going to make it great together.
	In the meantime, make sure you're following Chris on YouTube, the Mr. Reagan and Alpha Critic channels, on Twitter at MrReaganUSA.
	I'm Sebastian Gawker.
	You've been listening to America First, making movies great again, wherever you are, whatever you're doing.
	Keep your head on a swivel.
	Watch your six.
	Hold the line.
	Never give up.
	Never give in.
