	It's too late. I mean, they took too long.
	It took them five days to get here.
	I mean, it took five days for Biden to come here, and he didn't think we were worth coming down to see us himself.
	He had to fly over on his way to Raleigh.
	It's disgraceful. I mean, they keep saying we the people.
	No, there is no we the people.
	It's them versus us.
	They're not for us. It's all about them.
	They tell us what we need instead of listening to us.
	An emotional-laden interview from Asheville, North Carolina, Jordan Lanning, telling my former Fox colleague, Jesse Waters, it's just too late.
	It's just too late.
	Do we have half of the elite simply not caring for Americans, especially Americans in trouble?
	We will discuss that and so much more.
	It's Friday. It's Second Amendment Friday.
	It's Ask Dr. G Anything.
	The phone lines are open.
	833-333-GORKER. That's 833-334-6752.
	But first, we are delighted, we are honored to have with us, based upon an article he wrote earlier this week on another topic, but they're all connected, senior fellow from the Hoover Institution at Stanford, the author of the newly reissued The Case for Trump, Professor Dr.
	Victor Davis Hanson. Welcome back, Professor.
	Thank you for having me, Seb.
	I want to go through the article you recently published on the five recipes for disaster in the Middle East, and we will make time for that this hour.
	But I cannot but ask you to react to what we've witnessed in the last week.
	President Trump has just landed in one of the stricken areas.
	This is his second visit to help those in trouble.
	And it beggars belief for me to say this.
	It's the beginning of the fiscal year, and we found out that FEMA has no money left in its budget.
	It's spent $650 million on illegals.
	We have a longer clip from Eric Trump who says 157 hotels in New York are unavailable because they are full of illegals put there by the Department of Homeland Security.
	Is there any analog to this in history?
	When does a nation or a civilization that does so much for those who aren't its citizens actually survive for very long, Professor?
	Not very long, but there's another way of looking at it.
	It's not just the heirs of commission.
	It's almost like they're deliberately trying to favor people who were not citizens.
	And I can see that in every...
	I think all of us can see that in every realm.
	If you want to go to a major airport, you're going to have to have a real ID, which is very hard to get.
	And yet, I was at an airport in the American Southwest when people just waved them in if they were illegal aliens being flown to another location.
	So they had no identification, not just a license, but Not just a lack of a real ID, but no identification at all.
	So we're getting to the point where citizenship is a disadvantage.
	And I mean that not with any hyperbole.
	I don't know what the reluctance is also, whether it's red state America or it's the East Palestine, Ohio factor, where these are the types of people who they feel will not vote for them, or they're not their constituency, or they're ultra-mega, semi-fat, whatever the disparagement is.
	They don't seem to be very worried about this devastation in the Carolinas and Georgia at all.
	Neither of us are psychiatrists or psychologists, but just as a rational human being, I return forever to this question of how does this occur?
	Because you run for office.
	But do you at some point in time make a conscious decision that I will favor those who aren't the citizens, whether they voted for me or not, but I will favor those who are illegals and who came here illegally?
	Or is it perhaps the function of some osmotic process whereby the ideology of 1619 and everything else, you know, Noam Chomsky on down, the The citizens' history to America, everyone else, that just the hatred of traditional values and norms creates a political class that just defaults to the anti-American decision?
	Do you have a theory as to how they get to this point?
	I don't think these are Democrats.
	I think the people who are in control of the Democratic Party are Jacobins.
	They're French revolutionaries.
	And everything from changing the foundational date to 1619 to statue removal, iconoclasm, name-changing, it's a holistic process.
	So they opened that border not because of laxity.
	They wanted 10 to 20 million new constituents.
	And that meant grow government, more entitlements, higher taxes, and You know, future voters under the 70% of the states, 70% of the ballots in states are now not cast on Election Day.
	So that was deliberate.
	And I think this is, you know, I don't want to make accusations without proof, but it's sort of like the Secret Service laxity or the FEMA laxity or the East Palestine laxity.
	It's not a pressing issue for them.
	And that's a charitable interpretation.
	But I really do think they feel And you can see that with Jack Smith's October surprise indictment.
	You can see it with the lawfare that's been waged for two years.
	Now they're talking about packing the court again, letting in new states.
	They really want to transform the constituency and the nation because they feel that it's not conducive to their agenda.
	They don't have public support.
	So they either have to mask who they are, and you see that in the Senate races, just as you do with Harris and Waltz.
	For 90 days or 120 days, they're not telling us who they are.
	And we all know they're going to go back to form as soon as the election's over, or they have to have a new constituency, or they have to change the system.
	They're not mutually exclusive.
	So I think we're in a revolutionary process.
	They're trying to change the way that we operate the government and the people participate.
	They're trying to bring in a new constituency, and they are clever enough not to tell us who they are.
	But are they also historically illiterate?
	Because whether you're a Jacobin or of a similar ilk that hates your own society and wishes to change it by bringing in foreigners, that rarely ends well and usually leads to the recrudescence of a nationalism that expunges those people who hate their own country.
	Do they not know that, Professor?
	No. Well, every iteration of that type of aristocratic down, top-down revolution never learns.
	I mean, the Bolsheviks would have never taken power if it hadn't been for the Russian aristocracy, who thought it was kind of nice to pose as if they were one with the people.
	Dostoevsky wrote about that.
	And the same thing was true with the Jacobins.
	They all thought that the revolutionary mobs they unleashed would never, ever harm them, that they were wealthy or they were all titled nobles.
	The Robespierre brothers and others, all of them.
	And I think these people feel the 10 or 20 million that come in are not going to bother them.
	If they get near Martha's Vineyard, they're going to be out of there.
	They're never going to go to a hotel anywhere in New York where there's illegal aliens.
	They don't have to deal with it.
	And I think by the same token, they don't really believe in the rule of law.
	It's any means necessary because they feel their ends are so morally exalted that They justify any modes of obtaining them.
	And that's why they're very dangerous people.
	And I think we don't realize that we're in a revolutionary cycle with these people.
	And they have no shame.
	I mean, you would have thought the CBS moderators wouldn't have dared did what they did after what they saw with ABC. They thought, wow, there's going to be scrutiny.
	But then the revolutionary mind says, I don't really care about the scrutiny.
	If I can weigh this debate to Waltz and he wins, and that's significant in the outcome of the election, I'll be a revolutionary hero.
	They'll all praise me. No one will say that I broke my own rules about fact-checking.
	And that's how they look at it.
	And the same thing with the interviews.
	You think that after the Philadelphia interview, the black journalist interview, the Dana Bash interview, the Oprah interview, You would think that one of them would say, this is getting ridiculous.
	And they don't look at it that way.
	They think each one of them will help her more than the prior one.
	They're all Marie Antoinette's, a whole class of Marie Antoinette's.
	VictorHanson.com, the book is The Case for Trump.
	We will return momentarily.
	Make sure you're following us on the podcast platform of your choice.
	Seb Gawker, Sebastian Gawker, America First.
	Give us a follow. Give us a five-star review.
	We'll be back after these messages.
	Victor, let me ask you in the break.
	Um...
	I got the Trump debate wrong because I was watching it with a MAGA crowd and a lot of us were disappointed that he let the moderators get under his skin.
	But if you look at the polling afterwards, the undecideds, the independents, really favored President Trump and didn't find her sympathetic.
	As a result, I held my fire after the vice presidential debate.
	I thought J.D. was...
	Polite may be overly polite, but maybe that's what was needed for the suburban housewives.
	And so what's your take on the VP debate?
	That's exactly. I mean, I thought he was going to nail Waltz on his lies.
	I thought he could really hit him on January 6th with all the election denialism the left has done over the years and the BLM and Antifa riots and what Harris and Waltz did in that violence.
	But then I thought, you know, that's not what his task is.
	His task is to show everybody that he's not the demon that they said he was and to be more polite than Waltz and to kind of say, you know what, you're kind of a sad character and I'm not going to really rub it into you.
	You've got a hard job defending her.
	But he did debate them.
	And I thought when it was all over, people liked him and that was what he was supposed to do.
	And he won the debate on He could have destroyed Waltz and made him look ridiculous.
	But I think it would have emphasized that JD is mean, that he's a right-wing zealot, that he's trying to hurt a nice guy.
	And I think he really took them off guard.
	They had no idea he was going to be that way.
	And Waltz was just stunned, like, wow, you're my friend.
	I like you. I can't believe you're nice to me.
	You're not calling me a liar.
	Right. Why aren't you calling me a liar?
	Right. The number of times you said, I agree with you, Tim.
	And it's like, oh my gosh.
	I know. I think it worked.
	Yeah. I think it worked. But we'll see.
	I mean, the polls are all up and down.
	And, you know, no sooner do you think that Trump is winning the swing states and the left gets angry and you get a left-wing poll that says he's not.
	So I don't know what's going on, but I get the impression that The Middle East and the hurricane and the These interviews that Harris is doing in the debate incrementally are helping Trump.
	I agree.
	I agree. And just the fact that, you know, Katie is the chair for the GOP in our county, the biggest county in Virginia.
	The early voting figures, over 200% higher turnout than 2020, and predominantly in the rural areas that are Republican.
	I mean, it's stunning. It's stunning.
	I got that kind of fantastic. Oh, yeah.
	Will you test the cop, please, John?
	Will you play? Do you agree?
	Do you have any worries that Netanyahu may be trying to influence the election and that's why he has not agreed to a diplomatic solution?
	No administration has helped Israel more than I have.
	None. None.
	None. And I think BB should remember that.
	And whether he's trying to influence the election, I don't know, but I'm not counting on that.
	Incredible. Incredible. Alright, I'll do...
	I'll do PhD...
	Actually, come in with Biden, then I'll do PhD, and then we'll go back to the professor.
	.........
	Do you agree, John?
	Do you have any worries that Netanyahu may be trying to influence the election and that's why he has not agreed to a diplomatic solution?
	No administration has helped Israel more than I have.
	None. None.
	None. And I think Bibi should remember that.
	And whether he's trying to influence the election, I don't know, but I'm not counting on that.
	That was a moment ago. That's the putative commander-in-chief, the current incumbent, Joe Biden, who said no administration has helped Israel more than he has.
	We'll dissect that momentarily.
	And he's asking whether a prime minister at war?
	Is trying to interfere with our elections?
	Stunning. Absolutely stunning.
	Before we proceed, I want to thank Dr.
	Ashley Lucas and her amazing team at the MyPhD Weight Loss team.
	Why? Because with their great offices, no needles, no injections, I shed 42 pounds in just a matter of months.
	My muse Katie lost 36.
	She looks stunning. If you want to proceed the natural way with five protein-rich meals a day that just burn the fat right off, call her team right now, 864-644-1900.
	You know me, I've got a wicked sweet tooth, I love my fried food, but if I can do it, anyone can.
	See the before and after pictures at myphdweightloss.com.
	Mine will shock you in a good way.
	And then call her team, 864-644-1900, myphdweightloss.com, myphdweightloss.com.
	Professor Hansen, you have a new article on how to blow up the Middle East in five easy steps.
	Let's start with the statement from the current incumbent that he is the most supportive president for the state of Israel America has ever had.
	Well, right in the middle of the war, he put a hold on 2,000-pound bombs to win over supposedly a Muslim-American vote in Michigan, which is going to be pretty important in the election.
	And he has told them again and again to be proportionate.
	So now Israel has had 320 projectiles and now another 182, and it's exactly replied with three missiles In response, it took out a couple of aircraft batteries because of this administration's pressure.
	So I guess he feels that if Israel has 500 launches at its homeland and it only replies in three cases with three projectiles, then that's proportionate.
	And you know, when he said about interference in the election,
	this is an administration that flew Zelensky into swing state Pennsylvania, took him to a munition plant
	where they bragged about the jobs were predicated on aid to Ukraine.
	And then he gave an interview, Zelensky did with The New Yorker, and he said that JD Vance was
	danger, danger and a radical.
	And he said Donald Trump didn't know what he was talking about.
	Right.
	If that isn't intellectual.
	And there were no Republicans invited for that tour.
	And finally, the embarrassment over Zelensky asked for an interview with Trump.
	But that was exactly what election interference is.
	And of course, the news, the reporter didn't mention Jack Smith coming with this ridiculous
	indictment contrary to all of the protocols, the DOJ,
	it says that they will not use the DOJ 90 days within an election to indict a political figure.
	You mentioned one of the five things in your article, and for me, it was one of the proudest moments of my time in the White House when we stood in front of the president and we argued with Steve Bannon to the rest of the cabinet why the JCPOA-Iran deal has to be killed.
	And this is in contrast to the Obama-Biden-Harris doctrine of, what did you call it, the balancing of tension?
	Creative. That's a term they have used, creative tension.
	In other words, by empowering the so-called underdogs of the Middle East, kind of like a community organizer does, that the Persians and the Shia have been discriminated along that axis as well.
	The Tehran, Damascus, Beirut, Gaza axis, they were going to play them off against our allies, the Gulf monarchies and Egypt and Jordan, as well as the only democracy in the region, Israel.
	And then we would come in once in a while and adjudicate without taking sides.
	And I think that's where Biden is right now.
	I mean, Hezbollah, the Houthis and Hamas and Iran have launched 20,000 rockets Are drones or cruise missiles at Israel since October 7?
	And what are they supposed to do?
	What does he want them to do?
	And I think they're really getting punished for their competence.
	In other words, this administration thinks, well, if they shoot them all down and they don't kill people as they were intended, these projectiles, then that's kind of an advantage Israel has.
	And maybe we should even the plane fill out and say that they can't respond.
	So it makes it fairer.
	And then also targeting Saudi Arabia as the pariah whilst releasing billions of dollars to Iran at the same time.
	Yeah. I mean, he campaigned.
	Remember, he said, Saudi Arabia is a pariah, and we're going to investigate them, he said.
	As soon as he came into office for crimes against humanity in Yemen, they were hitting civilian targets when they went after the Houthis.
	And then all of a sudden, the midterms came up, and the gas had doubled, and he started draining the patrolling reserve.
	And then all of a sudden, he went over to Saudi Arabia, and he was best friends again.
	He praised the Saudis.
	And, I mean, it was the worst act of being obnoxious and then obsequious, passive-aggressive, that I'd ever seen.
	And the Saudis have no—our allies have no confidence in this administration.
	They've done so much damage.
	It's just a question of whether They're incompetent or they're malicious and nihilist or both.
	Does reality impinge upon their thought process and the decision making because you've described them domestically as Jacobins?
	Does that ideological matrix determine how they act internationally in such a way that's counter?
	Go ahead. I think it does.
	I think they feel that The overdog is usually the American ally or the Western party, and it's their duty as Jacobins to level the playing field.
	So empower Iran, empower Hamas, empower Hezbollah, empower the Houthis.
	I mean, how else can you explain the Houthis have shut down the Red Sea, and you can't navigate into the Suez Canal, and they won't do anything about it.
	And I think they have, as Biden said, he sided with the Houthis early in his administration over Saudi Arabia.
	And it's the same thing throughout the world, that anybody who has a claim against the West of neocolonialism or imperialism, etc., etc., they seem to be sympathetic, whether it's in Latin America or Africa or the Middle East.
	And they don't like people who are competent.
	They feel they have too many advantages.
	So they don't like Israel.
	They really don't. And they can't stand Israel, to be frank.

	We'll be back with a good professor after these messages.
	Let me just repeat that number. 150 hotels in New York City that are completely full of illegal immigrants.
	New York City alone spends over a billion dollars a year on illegal immigrants.
	And then you see these pictures of husbands and wives and children who have lost everything.
	Their homes have floated down rivers.
	Their homes have been taken out by mudslides.
	Their vehicles are gone.
	Their picture albums are destroyed.
	Every sentimental value that they could ever possibly imagine is gone.
	You know, will never be brought back.
	And what does Kamala do?
	She comes out and offers $750.
	The TV in the person's house costs more than $750, and you see the absolute destruction.
	Sean, of all the political things that I've seen in the last decade, this is the one that bothers me the most.
	If we do one more segment and get you out by 1.40, that's good?
	Oh, 12.40? Yeah, 12.40.
	Okay, great. We'll do one more segment.
	Did you see what Susan Rice said about President Trump?
	Have you seen this? No, I haven't.
	Is that today? It's MSNBC. Will you play cut nine, John, for the professor?
	No. And along comes Donald Trump, who really is like the Neville Chamberlain of the Republican Party.
	He's an appeaser.
	He's a surrender monkey.
	And that's what we're seeing in his approach to Ukraine.
	And frankly, we've seen him fold to blandishments from Xi Jinping and many others when it was convenient for him and served his personal interests.
	Donald Trump is the surrender monkey Neville Chamberlain.
	Yeah, she was part of an administration that gave us reset.
	And remember, reset was the correction of George Bush supposedly being too hard on Putin.
	Trump came in, and what did he do with Russia?
	He spread oil all over the world, crashed the oil price.
	He got out of an asymmetrical missile deal.
	He killed, what, 200 of the Wagner Group in Syria.
	He sent javelins to Ukraine that Obama, Rice, had forbidden.
	Susan Rice had asked herself, there's been four administrations and there's only one when Putin did not leave his borders and he kept within his own confines, and that was Donald Trump.
	This is a person who came on TV four times and lied to the nation about Benghazi in one single outing.
	And when you look at the record of the Middle East, it's a mess.
	And it didn't come from Donald Trump.
	I don't know what she thinks appeasing Putin is, but we've given $170 billion to Ukraine, and Putin didn't dare to go into Ukraine.
	And she should ask why Joe Biden said his reaction to a possible invasion of Ukraine by Putin would depend on whether it was a major or minor invasion.
	Invasion, right? Yeah.
	Remember he also said...
	Yeah. I'll come in with cut seven.
	Yeah. Yeah, whether it was a major or minor military operation.
	yeah yeah and then i'm gonna tee up cut 14 after i do my pillow
	so so
	how confident are you that a full out all-out war can be averted in the middle east
	How confident are you that it's not going to land?
	I don't believe we're going to be in all our war.
	I don't care what your political stripe is, what party you represent.
	If you're the commander-in-chief and you're asked on camera, are you confident that there won't be a broader war in the Middle East?
	Your answer should never be, are you confident it won't rain tomorrow?
	That is not leadership.
	And that was Joe Biden last night with regards to what is happening between Israel and Iran.

	MyPillow.com.
	I'm a little bit leery of doing this, Professor, because playing a cut of a mental midget like Joe Scarborough in front of you is...
	Well, anyway, it's indicative of the Jacobins, I would say, because of the point he makes about if President Trump were to win, God willing, in 32 days' time.
	Let's play cut 14, please, John.
	They have promised, Jonathan, that this next term, the Trump second term, they will have people there who will execute every one of Trump's orders and demands.
	And they have promised that they, well, you know, Bannon and Kash Patel just looked at the camera and said they were coming after us.
	They have promised we will not miss next time.
	We will find our targets and we will throw them in jail.
	That includes Morning Joe. We will not miss after President Trump was shot in the head by a Democrat donor.
	And then they're saying that Steve Bannon and Kash Patel will throw people in jail.
	Do these people even know?
	Maybe they don't. Do they know that Steve Bannon is in jail right now, Professor?
	I don't think they do.
	I don't think they have any memory of a Russian collusion that sidetracked 22 months of the Trump administration.
	They don't remember the laptop disinformation hoax that really changed the 2020 election.
	51 intelligence so-called authorities lied to the American people to help Joe Biden in his last debate.
	I don't think they under- what was the 16 states that tried to take Trump off the ballot?
	Why was Fannie Willis's boyfriend in the White House legal counsel's office?
	Why was the third ranking DOJ member working with Alvin Bragg, etc., etc.?
	They have- they always project.
	And I think what they're worried about and scared is they know that if they were Donald Trump, and they had done to Donald Trump what they had done, and they had suffered from it, they know what they would do if they came back into power.
	And so they're thinking, well, we would go after all the Trump people if they had done this to us.
	So surely Trump thinks like we do, and he'll go after us.
	But it's a sign of their own guilt.
	Do you think that what we're seeing, we mentioned this in the break, my wife is very involved with the politics in the Commonwealth of Virginia, we're seeing unheard of early voting and specifically in rural areas.
	Record-breaking. Record-breaking.
	Does this buoy you in terms of a conservative victory, or are you afraid of more shenanigans like 2020?
	Because now they don't have COVID, so it's going to be harder, is it not?
	Yeah, I think so. I think it's kind of a trade-off, though, because of the mail-in balloting and the early balloting.
	When 70 percent of the people don't show up on Election Day and the error rate or the rejection rate of ballots has dropped by a magnitude of 10, which it did in 2020, in many states, and that hurt Donald Trump because he was not prepared for that.
	And it's just a question, are Republicans fighting fire with fire?
	What degree are they using mail-in ballots?
	I don't mean to cheat. And are they being vigilant?
	And so I think the traditional idea is that the polls are, in his favor, they're rigged or they're biased two or three points.
	But on the other hand, he might need those two or three points, given the mail and bailing.
	So whatever the polls are, I think this year are pretty accurate, in the sense that They undervalue his support, but he's going to need more than normal support, given the way that we ballot now.
	But if we look at the results from the Teamsters Union, we look at the youth vote, even CNN had to admit that Kamala is not very popular today.
	No, she's not.
	And you can see, I think he's going to get a record number of Hispanic men, young black men, more than any other Republican in history.
	I think he's going to get a lot more younger people than we thought.
	And a lot depends on the final stretch.
	And they're going to have a lot of October surprises like we saw with Jack Smith.
	It depends on how well people in the Republican Party unite.
	What we see in Georgia with Governor Kemp is very good.
	Maybe Nikki Haley could do something.
	But there has to be an ecumenical effort of everybody.
	Because they have no margin of error.
	We're the ones who welcome Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard.
	So if there is a tolerant party, it's the Republicans.

	James Womack. Yeah.
	Are you all right if he's phone?
	Yes. He says he can try Skype, but he's not sure what the...
	Yeah, I'm fine with that.
	So we've got him for 2B, right?
	Yeah. Do you have a position for him?
	Did he give you something? You want me to ask him?
	No, I'll ask him before we go live.
	All right. I'm going to tee up 16.
	And then I'll do Tunnel to Towers.
	Copy that. Hey, I think I left my coffee out there.
	Can someone...
	Where is it?
	No, it's not there Would it would have been a gay
	It's not near Guy? No, it's not.
	Alright, then I lost it.
	Did you take it over to the old studio?
	Maybe I finished it and threw it out.
	Maybe it's in the trash. Maybe I finished it.
	That's a frightening thought.
	There's one in the trash, Joe.
	Oh, that's it. Thanks, Joe.
	By the way, I just watched that press conference.
	Terrible. First of all, he takes credit for the strike, yeah.
	And then the jobs record.
	And he spent like 15 seconds on the hurricane.
	Wow. And then what else did he talk about?
	He took a couple questions.
	The first reporter, thank you so much for doing this.
	And then the other reporter thanked him.
	But that was in the actual press briefing room.
	They said that it's either the first or second time he ever used that.
	He also said he's concerned about Trump accepting the results of the election.
	Ins and outs for Dylan?
	Bye.
	Hang on a second. Can we get the feed ready, John, if he starts talking?
	Yep. Really?
	Okay, great. And the hurricane's becoming a problem for him.
	MSNBC today was talking about it.
	All it was was B-roll in the back of FEMA passing things out.
	It was so purpose, you could just tell.
	Alright, so what is this? Columbus County, right?
	Columbus County. Evans, Georgia.
	Okay. Or Columbia County.
	Columbia County.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	Thank you for watching.
	This is a test.
	This states the storm zone need, Mr. President.
	President? What do the states in the storm zone, what do they need after what you saw today?
	Oh, in the storm zone?
	Yes, sir. I don't know what story they're talking about.
	They're getting everything they need.
	And they're very happy across the board.
	So we just gotta keep...
	I'm gonna have to go back to the conference and get some more money to return.
	Jeff, did Biden just say, what storms?
	Yeah. And then did he say that everyone there is very happy?
	Yeah, what storms when he was returning from visiting there yesterday, the storms.
	And then he said they're all very happy?
	Yeah, then a typical politician, we just need Congress to give us more money.
	That's their solution to every problem.
	That's absolutely incredible.
	For those who didn't believe what I said yesterday, this is the guy who's meant to be in charge of all of these operations, to whom FEMA responds.
	This is Alejandro Mayorkas, the Secretary of Homeland Security, Kat 18, explaining why they're not getting everything they need.
	We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have.
	We are expecting another hurricane hitting.
	We do not have the funds.
	FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the season.
	Jeff, we're the richest country in the world.
	We're the only nation to put 12 men on the moon.
	We've got a dozen nuclear aircraft carriers.
	Why does the Federal Emergency Management Agency...
	The fiscal year has just begun, four days ago.
	Why does FEMA not have any money for people in the hurricane zone?
	Because it's a shell game.
	Because the same guy that's over the border lets everybody in, and then he shuffles money to FEMA to be able to pay for it.
	Oh, you mean the illegals have got the money from FEMA? Yes, the same guy that's over the border is also over FEMA. So do we have proof of that?
	He would never admit that on an interview, would he?
	Maybe. Maybe?
	Oh, hang on, he did.
	This is Cut17.
	This is the same person back in January.
	FEMA is providing emergency food and shelter program funds to help cities around the country Recover or defray the cost of noncitizen arrivals.
	CBP and ICE are working closely with cities to share information and coordinate the disposition of noncitizens I love the non-citizens, Jeff.
	He means illegals, right?
	Exactly. You know what this is code for, too, while they're running out of money?
	What? This is to get FEMA more money for illegals.
	They're going to use this storm for that.
	I can guarantee you that. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
	Absolutely. $650 million was not enough for the illegals.
	Have we played the cut from Eric Trump?
	We haven't played that, have we?
	Okay, before we do that, we're waiting for President Trump to take the podium in Columbia County, Georgia.
	We'll play that for you live.
	But first, Tunnels to Towers are our latest partner.
	We're so excited to support this superb organization.
	Let me tell you the story of Christopher Chambers.
	He enlisted in the Navy and later graduated BUDS, the SEAL Selection Programme.
	He was 37 years old when on a nighttime raid against the Houthi rebels, he died while serving as a SEAL. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation provided his family with a mortgage-free home.
	They honor the legacy of those who made the ultimate sacrifice to our country and to our communities.
	Additionally, they're working to eradicate veteran homelessness across the country, and they will never let us forget what happened on September the 11th, It's not just our warfighters, it's our first responders as well.
	Help the heroes who protect the freedoms that we all enjoy.
	Donate just $11 a month to the Tunnel to Towers by going to T2T.org today.
	That's the letter T, the number 2, and the letter T.org.
	Please support this incredibly worthy, worthy foundation.
	That's T2T.org, T2T.org.
	I promised this when we were talking to Victor Davis Hanson.
	This has got to be an evergreen.
	This is hard to believe.
	Eric Trump on Fox relating the disasters across the nation to the reality of life isn't illegal in New York.
	Right now, there are 157 hotels in New York City that are completely full of illegal immigrants.
	Let me just repeat that number. 150 hotels in New York City that are completely full of illegal immigrants.
	New York City alone spends over a billion dollars a year on illegal immigrants.
	And then you see these pictures of husbands and wives and children who have lost everything.
	Their homes have floated down rivers.
	Their homes have been taken out by mudslides.
	Their vehicles are gone. Their picture albums are destroyed.
	Every sentimental value that they could ever possibly imagine is gone.
	It will never be brought back.
	And what does Kamala do? She comes out and offers $750.
	The TV in the person's house costs more than $750, and you see the absolute destruction.
	Sean, of all the political things that I've seen in the last decade, this is the one that bothers me the most.
	A one-time payment of $750 to those who've lost everything, and 157 hotels in New York have been taken over by illegals, and their rooms are paid for by you.
	That's the reality.
	All right. Calls are coming in.
	Sean, Bill, don't go anywhere.
	The number is 83333-GORKER. That's 833-334-6752.
	I didn't mention it earlier, but if you want to keep abreast of the breaking news, I'm going to be in Butler, Pennsylvania tomorrow with the president.
	Who else is going to Butler?
	Jeff, you sent me something.
	Who else is going? Elon Musk.
	Elon Musk? Did he actually make a post about that?
	Yes, he did. Wow, that's even better than an endorsement, isn't it?
	He's actually going to go to the place where President Trump was shot?
	I bet he speaks, too, for a couple minutes, too, don't you think?
	Oh, hang on, hang on.
	That's interesting.
	You think he's going to take the podium?
	You have to let him for a couple minutes, I think.
	Well, yeah, but you think he wants to?
	Because that's like, I mean, they hate him badly enough already, but if he speaks from the podium for a presidential rally...
	Well, it doesn't matter. Trump will just call him out in the crowd, and then he'll say, Elon, come up and say a couple words.
	Alex, do you think Elon is going to do that?
	Yeah, and you've got to take him this flag or a hat or something.
	I'm going to take him the first butler mug.
	What do you think? I like that.
	That's a great idea.
	Maybe he smokes cigars.
	Maybe I can take him some of our Dr.
	G. I haven't even mentioned our cigars since I got back from my little vacation.
	If you are a cigar smoker, then check out the Teddy Roosevelt Dr.
	G. Liberty cigars at SebGorkaStore.com.
	They really are very, very good.
	I'll be taking some with me to Butler.
	Maybe some for Musk.
	That's a great idea.
	Okay, so you've got to exercise, you've got to eat right, and you've got to get a good night's sleep.
	How do you do that? Well, just listen to my muse.
	Katie, talk to us about Z Factor.
	Okay, I will say, if I don't take it, I'm up at 4.
	And I love that time with the dogs, but I'd rather be asleep in bed.
	So when I take Relief Factor, I actually sleep till 6, even 7 o'clock in the morning.
	I tell you what, I'm a much happier camper.
	So am I. If you've tried everything else and it didn't work, oh, worse than that, you've got to, you know, sleep, but you woke up all woolly-headed, fuzzy-headed in the morning.
	Don't you just hate that?

	Who's here?
	Former Congressman Doug Collins.
	Where's Doug Collins? Is he around here?
	Doug Collins. What a nice guy he is.
	Oh, Doug, I haven't seen you in so long.
	You haven't changed. You look better, actually.
	State Senator Max Burns, who's here, and District Attorney Bobby Christine.
	We want to thank the people that are working so hard, and we're Here in Evans, Georgia to express our support, our love and our prayers and all of the communities that are suffering.
	It's not even believable when you look and you see the kind of suffering that's going on right now.
	One of the biggest, I guess, question marks is the fact that there's so many people missing.
	I've never seen anything where so many, the numbers are so large.
	The backdrop's got to be the chart tomorrow, don't you think?
	Something that will be found and they'll be found very healthy, but it never looks great.
	It never looks great. Our hearts break for the more than 200 American families who have lost their lives already.
	Officially, 200, and that number, unfortunately, is going to be going up.
	It's one of the deadliest storms in American history.
	More than two dozen Georgians have died, including a 27-year-old mother and her two precious babies who lived not very far from the From McDuffie County.
	And father, a lot of people knew these people.
	They're great. As father and grandfather, I know that such sudden and tragic loss.
	Music...of equipment to the governor, to Georgia, and to North Carolina in particular.
	And he acted very, very quickly.
	They needed communication. There was no communication.
	The poles are down. The wires are down.
	And he acted really, really quickly.
	In fact, I called him, and I was getting thank-you notices already from North Carolina and Georgia, and I wasn't off the phone with him.
	So I don't know what the hell he's...
	I guess he's got some kind of a little special deal going.
	He works pretty fast, I'll tell you.
	But he's been great. And Larry Ellison made a very big contribution.
	And a friend of the governor's and mine is right here, Steve Whitcoff, who also made a very big contribution.
	Steve, we appreciate it very much.
	Thank you. The homes and roads, as the governor told you, it's all being worked on.
	Everything's being worked on.
	And the good thing is when I just met a group and now I met two groups and now I'm meeting a third.
	President Trump talking live from Georgia.
	Big shout out for our buddy Doug Collins just a few moments ago.
	God bless President Trump.
	Let's go to your calls. Let's go to Bill in Michigan Line 2.
	Hey, Seb, I love when you let things roll off your tongue.
	But anyhow, you're a good man.
	God bless you and anybody who looks like you.
	But anyhow...
	You mean like handsome, very handsome people?
	Yeah, yeah, you're the one.
	You're the one. What would you like to talk about, my friend?
	What would you like to talk about? Okay, well...
	It's so unrealistic that any country would let anybody that's an illegal alien vote.
	And furthermore, the Harris regime wants to have Prisoners having sex changes and stuff like that.
	No, no, no, no, no, no.
	They want you to pay for it, Bill.
	They want transgender surgery for prisoners paid for by you, Bill.
	This is hurting me.
	This is hurting me.
	God help me. God help all of us, but it's not just prayers that are going to help us.
	We have to get engaged.
	Thank you for your kind, kind comments.
	Bless me and everyone who looks like me.
	I never had that said to me.
	That's wonderful. Don't go anywhere, John and Sean.
	We're going to save the monologue at the top of the next hour.
	I'm going to take calls instead.

	Thanks for watching.
	Bye.
	That's a shame. I don't know anything about what he said.
	I only can hope that it's going to be free and fair.
	And I think in this state it will be.
	And I hope in every state it will be.
	And I think we're going to do very well.
	But right now we're focused on this.
	We're not focused on the election.
	Well I won it easily in 2016.
	We actually were very close last time.
	And right now, the recent poll came up.
	We're up seven. So I think we're pretty far up and we seem to be going up and she seems to be going down.
	So I hope we're going to keep it that way.
	Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much.
	I appreciate it. Thank you.
	Thank you. We got you.

	President Harris will be able to unite this nation.
	I know that she will be a president who will defend the rule of law.
	And I know that she will be a president who can inspire all of our children, and if I
	might say so, especially our little girls, to do great things.
	you Hey Jeff, Nancy Pelosi, she dyed her hair.
	I don't recognize Nancy there.
	No, that's Liz. Like Liz Warren?
	No, Liz Cheney.
	Excuse me? Liz Cheney endorsing Kamala?
	Yes. As an exemplar for young women?
	Yes, exactly. Because they should have sex with their political elders?
	I didn't think about that part.
	Or what about marrying a guy that likes to beat his girlfriends or get the nanny pregnant?
	Yes. That's a good...
	Is that the model? Is that the model?
	That's the real male that we need.
	Oh, that's the positive masculinity.
	Yes. Okay. So, I'm curious.
	Why is the story of Doug Emhoff getting the nanny pregnant and then paying for the abortion, allegedly, and then slapping his girlfriend in the Cannes Film Festival after Harvey Weinstein party?
	Why... Was that on CNN last night, Jeff?
	That was absolutely nowhere.
	What? Nowhere.
	But why would Kamala Harris marry a guy that beats his girlfriend and gets the nanny pregnant?
	I don't know, but I'd like to know her reaction when that story came out.
	I'm sure she wasn't very happy about that.
	You think it's the flying ashtrays like Hillary?
	I think she returned what Doug did to her.
	I think she gave Doug a slap.
	Do you think he flew around and twisted like Dougie's old girlfriend did?
	Probably wouldn't take much force to get him to...
	But he's so manly.
	Don't you know that Doug Emhoff is the manly exemplar for America?
	He's setting the example. That's what Jen Psaki says.
	It's him and Timmy Tampon Walsh, right?
	Yes, yes. Oh, I said Walsh.
	I said Walsh, and it's Walsh.
	Who must I be thinking of?
	Who was that guy who had that local radio show?
	Who am I thinking of? Oh, Joe Walsh.
	Joe Walsh, is he still alive?
	Is he, like, breathing? Is he around?
	Yeah, he's doing big-time events right now, he was talking about.
	Really? Yes. And he's really got the finger on the pulse of American politics because he wants...
	What does he want? He wants Mittens' Pierre Delicto.
	Sorry, Mitt Romney to endorse Kamala, right?
	Yes. Really?
	It needs to happen right away.
	Because that'll move the needle. Wow, because that's what conservatism is in 2024.
	It's Mitt Romney endorsing Kamala Harris.
	Exactly. This isn't a joke, ladies and gentlemen.
	Here you go. Cut 10. I'm glad that Liz Cheney is on board.
	I'm looking in the camera directly at you, Mitt Romney.
	Get off your butt, Mitt Romney, and endorse Kamala Harris.
	But Laura, this is already in motion.
	I've been in every single battleground state.
	I'm in Georgia right now.
	I did an event with Jeff Duncan here in Atlanta, and we had an enthusiastic crowd of Republicans who support Kamala Harris.
	I don't think the pollsters are measuring this.
	Who's Jeff Duncan? Is that the founder of Dunkin' Donuts, Jeff?
	No, it's the former, I think, lieutenant governor of Georgia.
	What, like a real MAGA guy, right?
	Yeah, and it's one of those positions you never know his name, but since he came out against Trump, then he's just the best.
	But why would anybody want Mitt Romney to do anything today?
	I don't get that either.
	Like, what is the reasoning?
	He already talks about he hates Trump all the time.
	Why do you need him to endorse Kamala?
	But at least there wasn't a Mitt Romney fake license plate behind Joe during that interview, right?
	I mean, that would be, like, really embarrassing, right?
	No, I'd like that. That's a nice piece.
	I might put that up in my home studio.
	A historic memento.
	Yeah, exactly. All right, stop having so much fun.
	Let's go to the calls waiting patiently in New Jersey.
	John! Hello, Dr.
	G. I got a cigar question and a music question.
	Cigar and music?
	All right, let's do it. It's Friday.
	What is the first question, John?
	91, I saw...
	I mean, in 81, I saw ELO at the Time Tour.
	Have you ever listened to any of their music backwards?
	And how was the concert? Hang on, hang on.
	Slow down. Have I ever listened to ELO's music backwards?
	What is this, the Warris and the Beatles?
	What are you talking about, John?
	They used backmasking on quite a number of their phones.
	No, you're just spinning me a yarn now, John.
	The perfect example is Fire on High.
	Bev Bevan, if you play it backwards, it's him saying the music is reversible, but time is not.
	They did it on almost every one of their albums.
	Engineer John, you've got a big grin on your face.
	Do we buy any of this or do we have a big bucket of salt?
	I don't know. I'd have to check for myself.
	We're going to have to do some research. All right.
	Look, you're clearly talking about me going to see ELO last...
	What day was it? What day did I do that?
	Was that Friday night or Saturday night?
	With my good friend Jeff who taught counter-terrorism with me at the National Defense University.
	I'd never seen ELO live ever.
	It was incredible, John.
	But I'm not familiar with the Backwoods music stuff.
	Yes, and regarding cigars.
	Oh, hang on. Before we get to cigars, I have some proof that I actually went to a concert.
	Here we are in the stadium last week with my buddy, Jeff, rocking it with the ELO symbol behind us, the massive LED screen.
	It was quite an event.
	Wow. And I got to say, Jeff Lynn, Mr.
	ELO, 76 years old.
	He had the whole arena in the palm of his hand.
	What a pro.
	Absolutely. We salute you, Jeff Lynn and the Electric Light Orchestra.
	Sorry, John, I'm just waxing lyrical.
	What is your cigar question?
	My cigar question, real quick, you can have your guys look up the back masking.
	It's common on all ELO back then.
	But the cigars, I love the smell of cigars, but I have a very sensitive throat.
	I have a lot of friends that I would love to sit around and let them smoke.
	Can I get your cigars wrapped or in humid tubes?
	They come in a box and they're not as they are made by the Liberty Cigar Company.
	They're not in tubes or individually in cellophane because they come in a beautiful cedar box.
	But stay on the line, John, and I will talk to the CEO of Liberty Cigar Company.
	John Adams, who is actually a descendant of the John Adams.
	And I'll ask him if there's any variety of his cigars that comes in tubos or in cellophane just for your delectation.
	So stay on the line. Give your email to Jeff and I will do some research on your behalf.
	What is happening with the call board?
	It's flipping, exploding.
	Let's go to Sean in New York City.
	Dr. Gorka, before I discussed my idea for the SAFE Act, I thought it was really funny today when President Trump said she's going down.
	And we're going up.
	I thought that was very funny.
	That said, I... No comment.
	That's all I'm going to say, Sean.
	No comment. Carry on.
	So, I haven't read the SAFE Act, which failed in Congress, but I'm hoping that, you know, when we take back the Congress and President Trump makes his glorious return, that they may consider my idea, which is, for the elections, why don't we use passport ID cards?
	It has a barcode, and it could ensure that the person is an American citizen.
	They show up with their passport ID card, the barcode gets scanned.
	Or we can do this through the computer.
	You scan your barcode.
	I think India does something similar to this.
	They're the largest democracy in the world.
	Yeah, India has voter ID, largest democracy in the world.
	Mexico in a state of narco-insurgency is voter ID. Look, I'm for it.
	I'm totally for some kind of unfakeable voter ID. The only thing that I think is an obvious problem with passports, I think a fraction of the population have passports.
	The vast majority of Americans have never been abroad, so you'd have to force people to get passports.
	I don't think you can force people to get a document they may not need or want to have.
	But an alternative kind of voter ID, if we say that real ID is the requirement to get on a plane and every driver's license, even if there are different designs, has to comport with real ID, then why not have real ID requirements for voting?
	Great, great idea, Sean.
	Thank you. Let's go to...
	Oh, David's got a firearms question.
	Line 2, Scottsdale. Hey, Sebastian.
	How are you doing? Good, good, good, good.
	Are you enjoying your suppressor?
	I love it, yeah.
	It's pretty good. It's a civilized way to shoot, isn't it?
	It is, it is.
	I use it as often as I can.
	I like it. But I know it's Second Amendment Friday, and I have a firearms question for you.
	All right. In your many things that go bang, do you possess...
	A Bull Armory Tac Pro.
	I have several Bull Armories.
	The Tac Pro, I think, is the full-size one.
	I have the Mark II SS, which is their tiny little one.
	I actually have two of them. They're so bloody good.
	And I have one of their extended slide race guns.
	They are excellent, Dave. And for the price, for a 2011 made in Israel, it is well worth the money.
	So you have the Ultra.
	I think they're called the Ultras.
	I'm not sure. Yeah, I think it's like the SS2 or something.
	Yeah, the Ultra. Correct. The tiny little one and I have a full sight race gun.
	Are you considering getting a Bull Armoury?
	Well, yes. They're really hard to get, as you know, Sebastian.
	I'm looking for the TAC Pro.
	Okay, stay on the line.
	I know the people. I know Ben, who runs Bull here on the USA. Stay on the line.
	I know Jeff has your contact details, but I need to get your email again, and I will get you in touch with Bull Armory, because we are a full-service establishment.

	you you
	you president North Carolina election integrity team
	Do you have a website or a Twitter?
	Yeah, yeah, www.nceit.org.
	nceit.org?
	That's it. Okay, nceit.org.
	Great. All right, so you're going to tell us how bad the situation is in North Carolina, right?
	I didn't hear it. I'm going to tell you what we know about the ability to vote in the western counties.
	No. Okay.
	What about the effects of the hurricane?
	Well, I mean, we can talk briefly about that.
	I've not physically been to the site, so I can only relay reports that we have from people that are out there.
	But yeah, the voting thing is the biggest issue we have right now is that it's being slow-walked.
	There's an intentional suppression of the vote, we think.
	All right, John, that's President, North Carolina Election Integrity Team.
	And the website is www.nceit.org.
	Alright, I got it up on the, if you want to take a look.
	Good. And before we go to Jim, I'm going to tee up 19 quickly.
	Copy that.
	But first I'm going to do the car read.
	I'm going to do the car read.
	I'm going to do the car read.
	This is Second Amendment Friday on America First with Dr. J.
	G. Car Firearms is fighting for America and for the first civil rights, the one that makes all the others possible, the Second Amendment.
	I carry a 9mm car every single day.
	Check out their amazing line of weapons at kahr.com, which also includes the Desert Eagle line of iconic Hollywood weapons and the historic inter-ordnance series of U.S. military weapons, including the M1 carbine, the Tommy gun, and the venerable 1911.
	This company understands quality, and the Second Amendment is the amendment that makes all the others possible.
	Go to kahr.com.
	That's kahr.com.
	Back to your calls in a moment.
	The number is 833-333-Gawker.
	That's 833-334-6752.
	But first, we're going to...
	Continued discussion of what Hurricane Helene has wrought on our nation.
	Here is Tim Kennedy with a very disturbing report from the field.
	Cut 19. They're in the way.
	They are directly interrupting our ability to conduct missions and operations.
	And I'm not going to disparage anybody because we are trying to work within partner relationships, both government and non-government entities within state and federal and county.
	You know, I went to put a couple of people into a hotel last night, and they have a security guard at the hotel.
	They said, oh, we're so sorry.
	The entire hotel has been booked.
	For federal employees.
	And I was like, no, I have people that would just pull out of a mountain that are living out in the hills and there's not a place for me to put them because we have federal employees that are staying in the hotel.
	I slept in this white car last night.
	I smell like foot and death right now.
	As does every single person on our team.
	Not a single one of us slept.
	We got done maybe at 3 o'clock the moment the sun was up.
	We could fly helicopters again.
	We were back in the air.
	And we have not stopped.
	And I was like on the fence about trying to get on this program or not.
	I want people to understand how incredible this organization is.
	Save Our Allies and all the work that all of these volunteers are doing.
	But people, this is biblical level devastation.
	This is apocalyptic.
	The things that we see out there.
	And where's Kamala Harris?
	Where's Joe Biden?
	And why are all the feds taking up the hotel rooms?
	I guess that's what we have to get used to.
	Let's talk about what's happening in North Carolina in terms of devastation from natural disaster and also political shenanigans with the president of the North Carolina election integrity team, James Womack.
	Welcome to America First. Thank you, Dr.
	Gorka. Good to be here. So tell us what you're hearing from other parts of your state with regards to this isn't just a small, small natural disaster, is it?
	No, sir, it isn't.
	We have 1,800 or so volunteers around the state, a good number of whom are in the 25 affected counties.
	Twelve of those counties were hit very hard from the flooding.
	Whole cities were devastated, like Chimney Rock, North Carolina, which is almost nonexistent now.
	We... The concern that we have at this juncture is that it's a weekend from the disaster, and yet it seems like it's like the day after that the federal and state authorities are very slow in responding, very poor presence on the ground, very poor organizational leadership on the ground.
	Volunteers, like you just saw, are frustrated because they're trying to help Save lives and restore services at the same time that the federal and state governments are getting in their way and constraining their activity.
	So it's a big problem.
	And, of course, my biggest concern long term is the ability for these people to vote and influence the election.
	North Carolina, as you know, is a pivotal swing state.
	And the margin of victory from the 2020 election was less than $75,000.
	Well, let's talk about that. Let's talk about that, because you were on a conference call with my wife today, the chair of the GOP for Fairfax County here in Virginia, and you've been investigating election integrity for North Carolina.
	How concerned should we be?
	How much has been fixed?
	And what is the biggest concern for the next 32 days, Jim?
	The biggest concern for Western North Carolina is the fact that we've had Tens of thousands of people relocated, many of whom moved out of the county, have no idea how they're going to be able to vote.
	A lot of these election sites are inoperable.
	The State Board of Elections has not taken action to approve new sites.
	They haven't even completed their survey of the damages yet, a weekend.
	And so citizens, you know, they can't respond on a post to a website.
	Late in the game, the early voting starts on the 17th of October.
	And the election is the 5th of November, and all ballots have to be in on that date.
	By law, they have to be in by 730 that night.
	And there are hundreds of postal services that have been discontinued, post offices that are closed indefinitely.
	And vote-by-mail is just not going to work in the western half of this state.
	And beyond that, beyond what is the consequence of Hurricane Helene, talk to us about broader election integrity issues.
	Well, so the state of North Carolina has a corrupt voter list like most of the states.
	We have half a million voters on our voter list that don't have federally required information under HAVA. And so we already have a corrupt voter list.
	In the devastation of Helene, what was compounding the problem is the fact that people could fraudulently vote and with relaxed provisions that may be coming.
	It would be easy to cheat or to steal a vote of someone who's been displaced.
	So we're really concerned about that, and the ability to monitor that activity is going to be very difficult.
	So what are you suggesting to the people of your state here in Virginia?
	We're making sure that people go to Trump47.com, energize the people around them to vote early, to get out there as volunteers at the polling stations.
	What is your specific advice, Jim?
	So, we sent a letter earlier this week, still on the eve of the devastation, we sent a letter from my organization to the state officials that are on charge of the General Assembly suggesting to them things that they can do in immediate action which would help secure the election and make sure that people have every chance to vote.
	That's gone unanswered, essentially.
	We don't know that the General Assembly is going to take any action other than funding for federal and state relief.
	My advice to people is, number one, if you see issues with election integrity in the western counties, to report it, to make sure our Insight organization is notified.
	We have representatives in every county in the western part of the state, and they can
	report those things into our statewide reporting system.
	And that way, we can at least put an investigation in on it.
	The other thing is to make sure that you do extra effort to reach out to people who have
	been displaced, who have been relocated, particularly seniors that have left many of those nursing
	facilities and rest homes in the western part of the state.
	Reach out to them. Make sure that you help them exercise their right to vote.
	And if there's any questions at all, you can relay that information back to me at my organization at www.nceit.org.
	We certainly will welcome any inputs and any assistance that can be rendered there.
	Well, God bless you, James Womack, and your whole team of the North Carolina Election Integrity Team.
	Please make a note of this website.
	And if you're concerned about how this may be occurring in your state, look at what they're doing on their website, nceit.org.
	That's nceit.org.

	More of your calls here on Ask Dr.
	G Friday. We see something that said, Take a look at what happened
	This is a story of a man who was a hero. He was a hero. But he was a hero.
	Thanks for watching!
	Take a look at what happened Thanks for watching!
	That was, what, nine weeks ago, ten weeks ago?
	President Trump shot in the head.
	Butler, Pennsylvania. And tomorrow, at five o'clock, he'll be taking the stage again at Butler, Pennsylvania.
	I'll be there. Elon Musk will be there.
	And the man is fearless.
	Absolutely fearless.
	On that subject, let's go to line one, Chris, Texas.
	Dr. Gorka. Yes.
	I just appreciate the way you keep playing that Trump Pennsylvania clip.
	That thing's getting buried everywhere else.
	That was a game changer for me.
	I just appreciate you so much.
	Explain. I think every conservative show host should be playing that with regularity.
	In what way was that a game changer for you?
	Well, I just...
	I had never been enthusiastic about Donald Trump.
	I was going to vote for him because I hate what the Democratic Party has become.
	But when that happened, that's next level.
	There's no way I'm going to surrender my manhood to vote for anybody else.
	And why weren't you enthusiastic for him?
	Oh, I just remember him from the 80s and 90s, and I never took him that seriously.
	He was a great president.
	His presidency was great.
	It was his personality, I guess.
	But that's the point.
	The point is what his presidency was like.
	Exactly. And what he showed, I don't know, that was historic.
	His response, the fight, fight, fight, the taking control of his personal security detail was absolutely historic.
	And the fact that he's going back there three months later is absolutely unbelievable.
	Thank you for your comments, Chris.
	It is Second Amendment Friday.
	KAH Firearms understands that of all our civil rights, it is the Second Amendment, the right to keep and bear arms, that makes all the others possible.
	Check out their website, kahr.com.
	There's a reason I carry a 9mm car every single day, because their line of personal defense weapons are superb, and also they have fun things as well, like the...
	The Desert Eagle, the Deagle line, Hollywood superstar, and the iconic auto-ordnance line of historic military weapons, including the M1 carbine, the Tommy gun, and the 1911.
	Check them all out at car.com.
	That's K-A-H-R.com, car.com.
	Let's go to Tom in Atlanta.
	Thanks for taking my call, Sebastian.
	Yeah. So, you're going to be on stage tomorrow.
	No, no, no, no, no, no.
	No, no, no, no, no.
	Unless he wants me up on stage, I am just there as a guest.
	But carry on, please. Okay.
	Well, I've been thinking about this for a long time.
	So, I have... I can't sing and I can't draw.
	But I do have lyrics to a tune followed by a cartoon.
	So, the lyrics are the Mickey Mouse Club theme tune...
	And I'm thinking Trump comes out on stage and is greeted by you and the front row Joes who will greet him with the following words.
	We're not doing lyrics.
	Are you doing a whole song now?
	We're not doing a whole song, Tom.
	No. Just the chorus.
	Who's the leader of the club that wants to keep us free?
	D-O-N-A-L-D-T-R-U-M-P, Donald Trump.
	Donald Trump. Thank you, Tom.
	I appreciate it. Maybe Elon Musk can carry a tune.
	Maybe he could sing it when he gets the mic tomorrow.
	God bless you, Tom. Oh, let's go to Don in Los Angeles, line five.
	Dr. G, rolling thunder on the right.
	Happy Friday, my friend.
	Happy Friday to you.
	What brings you to our humble radio show today?
	Well, real quickly, I remember, you know, last week or so, you know, we touched on, you know, the passing of the great James Earl Jones.
	Yes. And I just got in the mail today, I'd ordered the DVD of his breakout role, The Great White Hope, where he plays Jack Johnson.
	They call him Jack Jefferson to avoid any, you know, legalities.
	But it's a tour de force.
	I've never seen it.
	Is he convincing?
	Oh, absolutely.
	It's one of the greatest things I ever saw.
	He got nominated for the Academy Award.
	He didn't get it, but that's a travesty.
	He did? He should have gotten it. Wow.
	I had no idea.
	He's so young and in shape with the shaved head.
	They taught him even how to box in the style of that era.
	You know, the hands down, the lower hands.
	And every speech is just so polished and chiseled.
	Every gesture. You know, I had an old Shakespeare director that said, You get one gesture per scene.
	Make it a good one. And boy, does he ever.
	I mean, oh, Dr.
	G, if you haven't seen it, you've got to see it.
	I'm writing it right down.
	I'm putting it on our list of movies right now as we speak, my friend.
	Right before this big fight in the movie, a group of black preachers come up to cheer him on.
	But, you know, they're just not cheering him as a person.
	It's like just because, you know, he's the soul brother fighting the white guy.
	And Johnson gets mad and he says, I ain't nothing but a big, black, ugly fist to you.
	And to just hear James Earl Jones give it with all the pipes, oh, you've got to see it.
	I think I might have to watch it this weekend.
	And, of course, the late Joe Jackson was posthumously pardoned by my former boss, President Trump, because he's a racist, I guess.
	Thank you, Don, for that recommendation.
	This is America First coming to you from the relieffactor.com studios.
	Why is this product being taken every morning and every evening by over a million Americans?
	Well, I'll tell you my reason.
	Because I take it every day.
	Because it works.
	I had a lower back pain issue that plagued me for nine years, for almost a decade.
	Nothing I did really helped.
	Then I took relief factor, and two weeks later, I knelt down in church, and it always was uncomfortable for me.
	And half an hour later, I realized, hang on a second, my back doesn't hurt.
	That's because of relief factor.
	And that was almost six years ago, and I'm still pain-free.
	You should have the same story.
	Find out today. There's only one way.

	All right, so that's PDW. Okay, we'll call that PDW. Okay, good.
	Yes, we'll call that Seb's gun.
	If I call for it, Seb's gun.
	Go ahead. America, we'll call that pipe dream.
	Okay. And then there should be a couple of videos.
	I just have the one that Jeff got, the one Seb.
	Jeff, I sent you the YouTube one as well.
	Yeah, I know. I'm going to cut it now.
	It's a favorite convert.
	There's HK slap.
	And then there's HK slap.
	Alright with SG range, okay.
	So the order is going to be...
	The first one you showed me, the PDW. Copy.
	Then two is going to be the video that Jeff is cutting now, YouTube.
	Okay? Then three is going to be Pipe Dream.
	And then four is going to be...
	It's going to be the one you just played with me on the range.
	One, two, three, four.
	That's right. What about the Seb's Gun picture?
	Oh, sorry. Seb's Gun. Seb's Gun is going to be...
	Hang on. One is PDW. Two is YouTube.
	You're getting now.
	Three is Pipe Dream.
	Four is going to be...
	Seb's gun. Seb's gun, yes.
	And then five is going to be me at the range.
	Okay, copy that. Perfect, yes.
	All right. Have we got him?
	Getting him right now. I need to talk to him quickly if he's there.
	Coming with the Second Amendment, right?
	Yeah.
	I need to talk to him.
	Please stayed tuned for that.
	This is Second Amendment Friday on America First.
	Brought to you by Carr Firearms.
	There's one company that understands the Second Amendment.
	It's not about whitetail.
	It's not about hunting.
	It's about freedom.
	The ultimate guarantee of your liberty.
	It's the civil right that makes all the others possible.
	Justin Moon and the team at Carr gets it.
	That's why I carry a 9mm car every single day.
	Check out their amazing line of weapons at kahr.com that include the Hollywood superstar that is the Deagle, the Desert Eagle, and the historic auto-ordination line of military weapons, including the M1 carbine, the venerable Tommy gun, and the...
	Legendary 1911. KHR.com.
	Take the Second Amendment seriously and check out their line of weapons at KHR.com.
	Today, for Second Amendment Friday, we are delighted to have a man who...
	Lost his balaclava in the laundry.
	He is known as Administrative Results.
	I don't know if his name is known to mere mortals, but I'll just call him Aaron.
	Aaron, welcome back to America First and Second Amendment Friday.
	Doctor, good to be back.
	Thanks for having me. We were chatting yesterday, and I just said, of all the gun YouTubers out there, you have the closest kind of taste to guns that I have.
	I loved your recent video on our bag guns, a dumb idea or not.
	A very methodological analysis.
	I think we have the front page of that YouTube video that everybody should check out by...
	Following administrative results on YouTube.
	And then we had also a commonality in that one of your newest sponsors is Americana Pipe Dreams.
	And I love those guys.
	Just, you know, young kids who are into all the kinds of camouflage, cool, milsurp stuff.
	But then it got really interesting.
	Because you did a video on...
	Well, do we have the YouTube clip?
	Is the YouTube clip available?
	Let's play a little clip from one of your great videos.
	I own ammo for this using M80 ball.
	I was trying to use AAC-168 grain inside of this short gun, but it would not cycle.
	It turned into a bolt action.
	I had to manually cycle every round.
	So that's the full disclaimer for everything involved.
	Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
	So all that to be said, I do think G3-style battle rifles are cool.
	Clearly you saw me make an HK-91 video.
	Everyone out there knows the MP5 is a cool weapon from Operation Nimrod, but the caliber's tiny.
	.308 is the way to go, is it not, Admin?
	You know, it's one of the ways to go.
	It definitely is one of the ways to go.
	That is for sure. If you want to smoke somebody and his buddy behind him and destroy, or I should say make cover into concealment, then yes, 308 is a phenomenal round.
	But it's also great because if you miss the guy, you give him sunburn.
	That's right, yeah. Give yourself a TBI and give that dude a concussion for sure.
	But I'm going to do a reverse masculinity test on you because you were firing, what, the 8-inch version of the PTR G3, and my gun is a little bit even smaller than that.
	It's.308, but I think it's got like a 4-inch barrel, up next to a 1911.
	Now, that could be the Dr.
	G latest concealed carry.
	What do you think, Admin? I think that is probably the premier way to carry the 308 ramp.
	If anything, I think you are going to alert the International Space Station for being robbed at your local 7-Eleven.
	I think it's brilliant. If you never want to hear music again.
	For those who don't believe me, this was me.
	I took a day off on Monday.
	I didn't come into the studio.
	My wife said, go to the shooting range.
	I had it all to myself.
	And I just really find the HK slap, because I did it 7.62 style.
	Here we go. Play the video.
	There's HK slap and then there's HK slap Not quite an MP5, but a real calibre
	It's an MP5 and a real caliber.
	I mean, who can disagree?
	I could tell that the phone recording even got damaged from the audio after you shot.
	Look, who needs M-Lock key mod?
	Who needs lasers, IR? I mean, when you started shooting those concrete bricks from Arizona, you turned them into dust within two shots, dude.
	Exactly. That is the idea.
	We love it. Look, I grew up on the FNFAL, the FNFAL in the British Army, so I think I'm a little bit biased to 7.62.
	All right, let's talk about your latest project.
	You've got a new channel launching soon, and it's not just going to be you running around the desert without a balaclava.
	You're taking it up a notch, so give us a little tease, Admin.
	What's coming next?
	So a little teaser is I want to do a third channel that was going to be nothing firearms related, not because I don't love my guns, of course, but because I wanted a venue where I could talk about more abstract ideas that wouldn't fit in that crowd's viewing cycle.
	So essentially started a third channel.
	I'm actually going to film a video right after this.
	There's already been one filmed as well.
	If you want to check it out, it's called Bureau Files.
	And the idea is a little bit more out there style videos and playing with concepts that are kind of crazy.
	And it's supposed to cater to the guys that watch YouTube when they're on the toilet or they're eating their food, which is...
	Does anybody do that?
	Does anybody watch YouTube when they're on the toilet or eating food?
	Have you done market research?
	Yeah, from all my comments, I constantly get told that I have catched guys on the toilet, or I should say caught them on the toilet.
	Many times. So this is Bureau Files.
	Would you tease the one you mentioned to me yesterday?
	Because I love the idea. What's the topic you're going to be working on?
	About a film right now, it's going to be how to properly defend Helm's Deep or how I would defend Helm's Deep.
	But that's a very short video.
	How to defend Helm's Deep.
	It's 308. 762.
	Exactly, Doctor.
	But I don't think King Thaden and the real Hiram had access to 308.
	So I've got to play by their rules.
	Oh! Alright, so no time machines, no fully automatic squad weapons.
	You're gonna be in the Lord of the Rings?
	It's got to be in the Lord of the Rings to make it more viable because obviously I'd want a 240 Bravo smoking the Orkai.
	Absolutely. But everyone knows it's not as intrinsically interesting as if you apply the tactics that could have been applied.
	So that's the idea of the video.
	Dude, get busy because I don't want anybody else to steal it.
	So that's Bureau Files on YouTube.
	Yes, sir. Bureau files on YouTube.
	All right. Admin.
	Administrative results. You gotta follow him on YouTube.
	Superb content. And he knows which caliber is the only caliber.

	All right, um, you'll explain cut 13, Jeff, and what he did for seven minutes before that, right?
	Yes. Okay, good.
	Come in with six.
	Copy that.
	I'm going to go ahead and get that.
	Okay.
	I'm Bruce Springsteen.
	Friends, fans, and the press have asked me who I'm supporting in this most important of elections.
	And with full knowledge of my opinions no more or less important than those of any of my fellow citizens, here's my answer.
	I'm supporting Kamala Harris for president and Tim Walz for vice president, and opposing Donald Trump and J.D. Vance.
	Here's why. We are shortly coming upon one of the most consequential elections in our nation's history.
	Perhaps not since the Civil War has this great country felt as politically, spiritually, and emotionally divided as it does then at this moment.
	It doesn't have to be this way.
	Jeff, that guy, he's worth, according to the interwebs, $1.2 billion.
	That diner, that made me feel like he's a real American, that he's sitting in there right there.
	That's exactly what I thought.
	He tries to play the jersey diner role and he's got the flannel shirt on and everything.
	Why can't he afford the sleeves for his jacket?
	He just sold his catalog for a half a billion alone.
	That's just his catalog that he just sold for a half a billion.
	That's not all the rest of the money that he has.
	Why does he think we care who he's voting for?
	You know, I'd like to know that, too.
	I'm curious. And he does this every election, too.
	Oh, he does? Oh, yeah.
	He's been doing this since the Bush days.
	Unbelievable. Can you explain the next cut to me?
	Because this is, what's his name, Steve Ratner.
	He was the junk, what was he, the clunkers for Obama, right?
	Yeah, this was with Joe Scarborough, and he was very excited about it.
	Ratner went on for seven minutes with all of these graphs and charts behind him.
	So he's talking about how Kamala's winning because she's got a plan and how the economy's better under her.
	Yeah, and then how Trump's plan is going to add $5.2 additional trillion to the debt.
	Okay, so he does this for seven minutes.
	And Kamala's going to balance the budget.
	This is my favorite part.
	And then they ask him an interesting question about his sources.
	Let's just listen. Steve Ratner, after seven minutes of blowing smoke up Kamala's bottom.
	Cut 13. I want, this is fascinating, and again, it's really fascinating.
	Give me your sources here, again.
	What are the sources for these numbers?
	These are Congressional Budget Office numbers.
	What about the Harris plan?
	These are numbers that her campaign produced, but have been vetted by independent, the Tax Foundation, independent scorekeepers of this sort of thing.
	These are honest numbers. So they're honest numbers because they come from the Kamala campaign, right, Jeff?
	And then they're verified by scorekeepers of these sort of things.
	You mean like Democrat Foundation?
	Like him, like the producer.
	Oh, oh, oh, oh, now I understand.
	Okay, so the Kamala campaign says that Kamala's ideas are good.
	Wow, that's shocking.
	That's really, real impressive journalism there.
	How did we get here?
	The Democrat Party hates America.

	Samantha Coleman, WNTW for Nighttime News.
	Another fictional nation with a dictator?
	Or is it fictional?
	Does it connect this movie to classics of the era, such as Predator and Commando?
	We are talking Die Hard, the sequel, because my colleague and my co-host He has a thing for sequels.
	It's Bruce Willis again, under the guidance of a Finnish director who specializes in horror movies, Renny Harmon, Chris Coles.
	Let's make some movies great again.
	Let's do it.
	All right, so what is it about you and sequels, Chris?
	I'll tell you. I have a theory about movies.
	I've told you this theory before.
	If I like a movie, I want to continue living in the world of that movie sometimes, you know?
	Two hours just was not enough diehard for me.
	And let me tell you...
	I really did feel like I was back in the world of Die Hard.
	There were a few things that were not done perfectly in this film.
	It certainly wasn't as good as the first film.
	It wasn't as tight. The story wasn't as good.
	There were a lot of things that weren't as good as the first film.
	But let me just say, I did feel like this was John McClane.
	I did feel like this was the Die Hard universe.
	And... Here's why I think probably people don't like this film or didn't like it as much as the first one at the time.
	Okay, obviously it's not as good.
	But after Die Hard, Die Hard was such a...
	You like to use the term sui generis film.
	It was sui generis, but it was impactful.
	And then it sort of spawned all of these copycats.
	Like, there was a whole genre, essentially, that grew out of Die Hard.
	So by the time Die Hard 2 comes around...
	People were kind of used to that world and living in that world.
	There were TV shows that kind of mimicked the feeling of Die Hard.
	So it wasn't like people were yearning to get back into that world.
	They kind of lived in that world in Hollywood and cinema and television.
	Now, in 2024, if you go back and watch Die Hard 2, it does give you that feeling of Die Hard 1 again.
	Again, not as good, but still you're living in that world.
	We talked about this with Ghostbusters 2.
	Just because it's not as good as the first one doesn't mean it's not also absolutely 100% enjoyable to watch.
	I had a blast watching this movie.
	Yeah, super fun movie, although saying that Green Berets slaughter each other and they're corrupt, it's like I have known hundreds of Green Berets.
	That kind of irked me.
	But at the end of the day, it kind of breaks the mold because for eons, for decades, people said...
	Don't... Sequels? No, no, no, no, no.
	We don't... Sequels are naff.
	No, we don't do them.
	But in the 80s, and this is 1990, they kind of broke that, right?
	Empire Strikes Back, arguably a better movie than Star Wars.
	We're not going to argue that right now.
	But this, likewise, maybe not as good as the original Die Hard.
	But, you know, the age of sequels being garbage rip-offs is kind of broken in this decade.
	And a lot of it has to do...
	With the genre that they created, let's unpack this a little bit here.
	Bruce Willis is a new kind of hero.
	He's not the muscle-bound Arnold.
	He's not the Schwarzenegger, sliced alone, impervious to bullets or pain.
	What is the most fascinating thing about the original Die Hard?
	And, of course, by the end of this movie, he may not be in a wife-beater vest that's gone from white to black because of the dirt.
	But John McClane is covered in blood.
	He kisses his wife at the end of the movie, smears her face with the blood that's on him, because this is a hero, Chris, who bleeds.
	This is a hero who almost dies multiple times.
	Is this the success of these movies, that this is a fallible human hero?
	Oh, yeah. I mean, nail on the head, look.
	James Bond has his charm, his charisma, his looks.
	Schwarzenegger has his muscles.
	John McClain has his toughness, his resilience, his tenacity.
	This is what John McClain is.
	He may not be the best fighter, he may not be the best shot, but he's going to use everything at his disposal to try to survive and to defeat the bad guys.
	And he has courage, you know.
	What's interesting is like, One thing that I think this film does really, really well – and you can kind of tell that the people who worked on this film worked hard because they knew that they had to live up to the success of the first one, and they knew that was an impossible task.
	So you could tell they actually worked hard at this.
	And one thing I think was really good about this film is the casting of the bad guys.
	The casting of the bad guys – these guys look tough.
	These guys look scary.
	When they're talking about how these guys are trained professionals they know what they're doing we should take these guys seriously When you see their faces, I mean, the chief villain, the primary villain of the film, his face looks skeletal.
	I mean, I've seen him in other movies before, and it's terrifying.
	You're talking about the colonel.
	You're not talking about Franco Nero, the general, right?
	You're talking about the guy who, in that homoerotic scene at the beginning, is exercising, sweaty, and naked.
	That guy is creepy!
	He's creepy. And actually the exercising naked thing, the practicing, the – I don't know what he's practicing, some kind of martial art naked.
	I actually thought that was really brilliant because it does create this sense – this surreal sense of creepiness like you said.
	And it gives you this fear.
	It gives you this sense of, like, this guy is dangerous.
	There's something wrong upstairs.
	And you look at his face, and you look at the other guys, and you think these guys are capable.
	I don't think they cast like that anymore.
	It's weird. I don't know why they don't do this kind of stuff anymore.
	I think there was a time in the 80s when the action film genre became so perfected that they just thought, we can't do this anymore.
	And they kind of shifted...
	I think it's about time we get back to it, because watching this film, I'm like, dang, why don't they produce anything like this anymore?
	I want to watch a new film that has everything Die Hard 2 has, and we just don't have opportunities to see stuff like this anymore.
	Is this just a very delicate and subtle way for you to say what many people have said to me before, that a certain British-American, Hungarian radio broadcaster and TV personality should play the villain in the next James Bond movie?
	Is that what you're trying to say, Chris, that I am so scary that I should open my Hollywood career right now?
	You know, if you did, I don't think it would be a bad move for Hollywood.
	You could pull it off.
	We could bring back the 80s, Chris.
	With one casting decision, Dr.
	G as the new Blofeld, we could save Hollywood, Chris.
	Do you not agree? But, Seb, consider this.
	You could play Blofeld, but you could also, you could also, let's face it, you could play M. You could play M. And give M, give M. Give Em some kind of handgun.
	Have him maybe save the day in a scene?
	I think that would work as well.
	You and Bond side by side?
	I want to see that.
	Well, you know I'm a big gun guy, but can I just, I mean, I know you're the actor, you're the script writer, you're the YouTube content provider par excellence.
	Could I suggest that while I have a very cool handgun as M, that I save the day with the ceremonial sword that hangs above my desk at MI6 headquarters?
	Could it be a sword, Chris? What do you think?
	Can we go really toxic at this point?
	That might be too cool.
	I think you've gone from cool to just too damn cool.
	I don't think Hollywood can handle that at this point.
	We've got to try, guys.
	We've got to try. We've got to save Hollywood.
	Maybe we just are too cool, but we're never going to give up.
	We're never going to give in. Because we fight!
	Fight! Fight! Where did that opening segment go?
	We're out of time. That's nuts.

	Luggage? That punk pulled a Glock 7 on me.
	You know what that is? It's a porcelain gun made in Germany.
	Doesn't show up on your airport x-ray machines here and it costs more than you make in a month.
	You'd be surprised what I make in a month.
	If it's more than $1.98, I'd be very surprised.
	Hey, McLean, don't start believing your own press, huh?
	Yeah, yeah, I know all about you and that knack that told me thing in L.A. But just because the TV thinks you're a hot, that don't make it so.
	Look, you are in my little pond now, and I am the big fish that runs it.
	The superb Dennis, friends.
	We're going to talk about a couple of the issues with this movie, the Glock 7 ceramic handgun being one of them.
	All right, you said in a couple of places, Chris, credulity is stretched a tad in this movie.
	I'm just going to get it out of the way.
	This movie is responsible for some of the biggest garbage propaganda against the most popular modern handgun in the
	world.
	The polymer, plastic, polymer framed Glock 17 and 19 that came from Austria, isn't made of ceramics,
	and isn't invisible because the barrel and the slide are made of steel.
	You can't smuggle it through metal detectors. Not true.
	Glock had to deal with this Hollywood stretching of reality quite a bit after the movie came out.
	And one more thing, and there are others we can mention.
	The scene when McClane fires the bad guys Heckler & Koch MP5 submachine gun,
	and proves that, well, they're firing blanks, and they're fake Green Berets, not real ones.
	Hey guys, Hollywood, there's a little problem here.
	You can't fire a gun with blanks and have it work unless there is an objuration of the barrel simulating the bullet and the pressure it creates to cycle the weapon.
	That's why on exercises on the end of an M16 you see a big red clamp that objurates the barrel at least partially so this The scene doesn't work.
	It's fake. It's not real.
	And one last thing, as a person who lives in the swamp, that's not Dulles Airport.
	It's actually LAX. And Dulles isn't in the District of Columbia, Mr Police Chief, when he says, you've contravened the rules of the District of Columbia.
	Chris, doesn't everybody in Hollywood know that Dulles Airport is in Virginia, or are they just so stupid?
	Well, also, you know, there's that amazing scene toward the end of the film, you know, the climax of the film, really, where he pulls that gasoline release valve, whatever thing.
	Yeah, the fuel release on the wind.
	Right, right. He casually lights his lighter and throws it onto the gasoline.
	The flame races up to the airplane, blows the whole thing up.
	It was really weird how in the 1980s and 90s, airplanes were absolutely full of explosives.
	Those things would just boom!
	They catch fire. The whole plane would explode.
	But you know what?
	I think that's actually fine.
	The only problem was that in the 1980s and the 1990s, we didn't really have the internet, at least not in 1990.
	We didn't have the internet. So people couldn't look this stuff up in real time and figure it out.
	Audiences were a little bit naive about this stuff.
	And producers knew this.
	Writers knew this and they knew they could kind of make stuff up and kind of cheat here and there
	And right if it was kind of cool the audience wouldn't mind I don't think and they wouldn't be able to look it up
	anyway, so they're just kind of like yeah Let's just make it up and it'll be fine
	Nowadays you can't really do that because everybody's on their phone fact-checking while they're watching it right
	Chris You've got it exactly
	I mean something like fast and furious where we know it's stupid of stupid popcorn movie
	and we're not going, you know, we don't care.
	We don't care. Of course it's ridiculous.
	It's absurd. But back then they were kind of telling you this stuff in a way that sounded real kind of and people kind of believed it kind of.
	It's kind of like what the Democrats do today with things like the new – whatever his name is, Jack Smith's new report.
	Oh, Trump committed crimes.
	Are you saying as an American taxpayer and a voting citizen that 32 days before an election, when you're not supposed to have a court motion exceed 35 pages, are you saying that the Biden Department of Justice's special counsel dropping a 165-page motion in Judge Chuck Kent's court, the same judge that worked with Hunter Biden in the same law firm for 14 years?
	Are you saying that...
	That's like election tampering a month before an election, Chris?
	I might be suggesting something like that.
	Yeah, I mean, it's just more lawfare.
	We all know this. But, you know, Hollywood used to try to trick people a little bit here and there, and now it's the Democrat Party in Washington, D.C. Hollywood can't get away with it, but they can.
	You know why? Because their voter base is just that gullible, sadly.
	Yeah, and that's why we need a real Bruce Willis back in the White House.
	As for this scene with the massive explosion of the bad guy's jet because John McClane throws his lighter onto the trail of fuel, the other thing I find quite amusing is you've got like hundreds of planes waiting to land and they can't because the bad guys have taken over the air traffic control, but then they see the trail of the burning fuel and the The carnage of the explosion, and they say, well, that's great.
	That's our landing strip now.
	So, Chris, I don't know about you, but if my captain decided to land our plane on a burning runway full of a carcass of a Boeing jet, I'm not sure that'll work too well.
	Sam, shush, okay?
	It was a beautiful ending.
	It was clever. It was clever.
	It was clever. And you know, Bruce Willis' very casual way he lights that on fire, it is cool.
	Well, and of course he drops the catchphrase from the original Die Hard, right?
	As he throws the liner, he drops the word we can't mention on the radio without getting sued.
	Yeah, yippee-ki-yay, bad persons.
	We are talking making movies great again.
	Die Hard 2, the sequel, maybe not as good as the original, but a lot of fun, especially since it was made before the advent of the Internet.
	So you just got to roll, just suspension of disbelief.
	The bad guys are wanting to save an evil general, and the only one who can save them is a fallible hero, John McClane, a.k.a., of course, the one and only Bruce Willis.
	We do have just a month to go in this election.
	How do you stay abreast of all the insanity, the new cycle, the lawfare, as our friend Chris calls it?
	You know, there are going to be more October surprises.
	Make sure you're following Chris at MrReaganUSA and me too on all the social media platforms that matter.

	That's my whole name. There's one word, sebastiangorka.substack.com.
	Attention all the controllers, attention.
	We have a code red alert.
	Every aircraft approaching our sector who are not already in our landing pattern gets diverted to their alternate airport now.
	Everyone already on approach or inside our pattern holds at the outer markers.
	Stack them, pack them and wreck them.
	Move. Get someone on it!
	All right, not a word of this leaves this room.
	There must be 15,000 people in this airport, and we don't need panic on our hands.
	We just bought ourselves maybe two hours.
	After that, those planes, low on fuel, aren't gonna be circling.
	They're gonna be dropping on the White House long.
	McLean, is this what you expected?
	No. This is just the beginning.
	Stack em, pack em, and rack em.
	The superb Fred Thompson, the late Fred Thompson, the late Senator Fred Thompson.
	We loved him in The Hunt for Red October and his other forays into the world of acting.
	We are reviewing Die Hard 2.
	You said it already, Chris, an amazing cast.
	Not only Fred Thompson, but the...
	The creepy, nasty journalist that we've seen in the first Die Hard, William Atherton, who played, what was he, like Chief of Staff to the mayor in Ghostbusters.
	Can you tell me, as an actor, if you're the most famous in your career for playing creeps that, you know, grandmothers like to tase, it's gotta be tough in real life, right?
	Yeah, I don't know how I would deal with that.
	I remember I was a kid and I was thinking about that at one point and I thought, man, it must suck to play the creepy, annoying, bad guy all the time because… I mean, it's bad enough to be so famous that you get recognized at the grocery store and you can't live a normal life.
	Imagine being recognized at the grocery store and everyone hates you.
	But I guess he got paid.
	He got compensated well enough for it.
	I would like to say John Amos, who played another villain in the movie, who we think is a hero early on but becomes a villain.
	He actually died a couple weeks ago as well.
	So I think this film kind of pays tribute to him a little bit because he did a fantastic job in this film.
	Like I said, he was again another one of these characters who really does seem to have...
	He seems to have a capability where when John McClane finally has to get in a fistfight with this guy, I was sitting there and I was thinking, is John McClane going to win this?
	This guy's a tough guy, man.
	I don't know. Another thing that scared me a little bit is every time John McClane, his pager would go off, I was thinking, oh man, I hope that's not the Mossad.
	Just recent events...
	We hope he didn't buy used on the streets of Beirut from a pager vendor, right?
	That's right. Exactly right.
	Yeah, I got a little nervous every time I saw that.
	John Amos, rest in peace.
	He actually died, what was it, Eric, like a couple of months ago, but his family only just released the news this week, right?
	He died on August 21st, but they announced it on October 1st.
	Right, yeah, it was a month and a month and a half.
	Yeah, we have to pay tribute to him.
	Also, we lost James Jones just a couple of weeks ago.
	I forgot this.
	He's such a distinctive character, but also he played Kunta Kinte in the original Roots TV show.
	So, John Allen Amos Jr.
	Who else? Oh, let's talk about Frank O'Neill.
	Frank, I have never understood...
	The popularity of Franco Nero.
	This guy, I know he was in the original Django and lots of spaghetti westerns, and he's got quite a remarkable face, but this Italian actor, he can't act for toffees.
	Which one is he? I don't even know who he's talking about.
	He's the general. He's the general that the whole thing is about.
	The Italian, you know, who's playing the general from Valverde.
	I see. I see. I mean, is he in a lot of...
	Okay, you said he was in Django.
	He was in a lot of...
	The original Django. So he made his career in the 60s in Spaghetti Westerns in Europe.
	And then he just... He was kind of a big deal in Italian cinema, Spanish cinema, and I guess a couple of American productions.
	For me, he was good in this because the accent maybe covers up some of the acting sins, and they just didn't give him very many lines.
	No, that's true. That's true.
	He's got a look. So it kind of worked out.
	It kind of worked. Keep his lines down to a minimum, and maybe he is impressive.
	We are talking Die Hard 2, the sequel.
	I'm Sebastian Gorka, and we are coming to you from the ReliefHactor.com studios.
	At least the truth is not among the hostages, because I... Richard Thornburg just happened to be here to put his life and talent on the line for humanity and country and if this should be my final broadcast.
	Amen to that, Dick.
	Dick! We're live, Dick! Where are you now? Dick?
	Oh yes, the great Bonnie Bedelia and Dick the reporter being tased.
	I've got to say, these are the moments, Chris, and I'm sure you understand the fine art of this, where they stretch credulity with a line that an actor says in the movie when, oh, I'm risking my life, I'm risking my career.
	But it works.
	Why? Because we all know dicks like that, don't we, Chris?
	Exactly. Exactly.
	He's the guy you want to hate.
	There are some people in this world you kind of enjoy hating, and they give us that in this film.
	Back then in the 80s and the 90s, they knew how to make movies.
	They knew how to give the audience what they wanted.
	Today, they're force-feeding us DEI garbage.
	But back then they knew exactly what the audience wanted to see, wanted to hear.
	And honestly, this actor does such a good job.
	I don't know if this was scripted or if he just thought of it, but you've got that big mirror in the bathroom, bigger than any mirror I've ever seen in an airplane bathroom.
	And he gets up and he's talking about, you know, this whole situation, you know, reporting on it.
	And how amazing he is.
	He checks himself. Exactly.
	Talk about how amazing he is.
	He's so courageous. And he's checking himself out in the mirror.
	Chris, nobody does that in Hollywood, right?
	That doesn't exist, that kind of person.
	Well, I don't know how he...
	I mean, he just...
	I don't know if this is because he's like that or if he knows people like that, but the fact...
	Look at him looking in the mirror. I mean, if you can't see this, if you're on the radio, but man...
	It's perfect. The way he looks himself in the mirror is, like you said, there are people like this.
	We know people like this.
	We love to hate them.
	And he just executes it perfectly.
	I don't know if the next thing is perfect execution, but as a little boy who liked to blow up and burn plane models, you know, it's because little boys do that.
	We just, you know, we make improvised explosive devices out of firecrackers and we have fun.
	I've got to say, I'm really impressed.
	With the special effects in this movie, they did have a real Boeing jet, but a lot of it, including the whole airport and all the other planes, were a massive model in many cases.
	And here's a little peek behind the scenes of the magic that is pre-CGI Hollywood.
	The sheer scope and staggering premise of Die Hard 2 created a unique set of problems for the talented production team.
	And none was larger than the task of constructing a major metropolitan airport, complete with a 10,000-foot runway, all within the confines of a soundstage 200 feet long.
	We first had to figure out the scale of an actual airport.
	And then shrink it down to the size that would fit in the stage.
	There's really a gag in here where all the runway lights go out.
	They're turned off by the terrorists.
	We had to be able to build that in model form.
	There was no other way of doing it because of the snow problems.
	And what airport would be complete without airplanes?
	Customized, of course.
	They have a full-scale wing of a 747 that we've been shooting on.
	We are rolling into the air.
	Ready?
	Close the flaps.
	Close the flap. Making those planes fly was a mission requiring the technical assistance of the special effects wizards at the Industrial Light and Magic Workshop.
	But the real fun came when it was time to blow up the planes.
	Ladies and gentlemen, as you've probably noticed, we've started our descent.
	We are sorry for the inconvenience, but we'll all be on the ground in a few minutes.
	But before the final explosion could be filmed, it required several tests like this one for the crash of a mythical British airliner.
	This is the third test we did.
	We did a few more up in Northern California just to get an idea of what mixture we wanted.
	Approach webs and now it's just a matter of how often or how quickly the bombs are going to go off.
	Approach speed 140.
	Approach speed 140.
	The editors will get, you know, a couple more cuts out of it.
	One more drama. Watch this.
	We shoot a real plane landing.
	Then we shoot miniatures actually crashing.
	And then we use actual real-life plane wreckage for the aftermath sequence.
	Chris, I don't know about you, but could you imagine getting paid as a job to blow up 40-foot long models of
	Boeing 747s?
	How cool is that? It's pretty cool.
	Look, when I was working in Hollywood, there is a place, there's a business industry It's this company that I don't know.
	They buy up old planes.
	It's like an airplane jet graveyard.
	I had to play a pilot once.
	Oftentimes, you're just in the seats.
	But it's... It's a phenomenal place.
	It's kind of a magical place because you get to explore all these kind of old planes and stuff, and there's airport lobbies and things where they shoot.
	But this is another level.
	This is very cool.
	These guys, you know, this is back before computer-generated anything.
	So these guys had to do everything practical, practical effects.
	And, yeah, this film, like we've been saying, not everything is, like, Super realistic in this movie.
	It's like really over the top.
	But man, it's fun to watch.
	And you can really see the effort they put into it.
	It's a top-level A-list film from...
	From 1990. Fantastic cast, fantastic special effects.
	I know you're a whippersnapper by comparison to me.
	I know you're a young man.
	But I don't know.
	It's pre-CGI. But I don't know.
	It kind of holds up. What is the youth's verdict on the effects?
	It totally holds up. Okay. Good.
	Yeah, it totally holds up.
	And also, you know, it's from that era.
	So the effects that they use, like the digital-looking effects on the computers and stuff...
	Honestly, sometimes I think this stuff is better than the stuff we get today.
	The stuff that's in camera, and then, you know, you don't even realize as a viewer, and I'm pretty much a movie buff, when they tell you none of the planes that you see fly are moving, they're just blowing clouds past a station in a massive model, and you go... Well, that's pretty clever.
	That's pretty smart.
	We're talking Die Hard 2, the sequel, John McClane, based on a book, by the way, called 58 Minutes.
	Yes, I've just bought the book because I want to see what the original book was like that they based the movie on.
	Hi. Hello.
	Who are you? I don't want to talk.
	I'm Andy. Yeah, good.
	Can you honestly tell me the difference between cow meat and man meat?
	Don't get stupid with me, man.
	How many did you get? How many what?
	I don't know. You tell me.
	Shut up, all right?
	You hit me in the face as hard as you can, and I'll bite you with my teeth.
	You bite me with your teeth, and I'll knock your teeth on your throat.
	Let's both dump on the floor.
	Gun! Come on, give me a free shot in the face, and I'll bite your arm off.
	Hey! Hey!
	Hey! Okay, this is you hitting me, and now here comes me!
	Get the hell away from me!
	Hey! Hey! Hey!
	Hey! Hey!
	Put your finger at me!
	You got a damn cannibal in here, man!
	Back off, back off, back off!
	Hey!
	Why don't you take Jay and Dave on them, huh?
	I'm feeling your voice!
	Can you give me a five-year bit?
	I can get you a conversation with the DA.
	Well, give me...
	Hey Hey, who's hungry?
	I know it's about John McClane.
	I know it's about Bruce Willis.
	But I want to celebrate one of my favorite actors on the planet.
	He's still around.
	I wish he got more credit than he does.
	Dennis Franz, who plays the grumpy chief of police at Dallas Airport.
	If you haven't watched Hill Street Blues or him as the Detective Sipowicz character in NYPD Blue, you're missing out on something.
	How did you like Dennis Franz's performance as the grotty, grumpy chief of police, Chris, You know, if you were to summarize this film, you could actually say, Die Hard 2, the most difficult way in history to get out of a traffic ticket.
	Because that's really what happens, right?
	They start the movie out.
	With Bruce Willis getting a traffic ticket.
	And sort of the last thing that happens in the movie is this guy's like, you know what?
	I'm going to tear up this traffic ticket after all.
	And Bruce Willis is like, hey, fantastic.
	And that's how the movie ends.
	So, yeah, it's just a long way to get from scene one to the end.
	I don't know if somebody's been giving you my cut sheet, if Eric is...
	Has been like, you know, leaking, leaking to Chris Coles.
	But I think he's right.
	It's a two-hour story about how to get rid of a parking ticket because this is how the movie ends.
	Play the card. Officer!
	Hey, come on! Come on!
	Hey, hop on in there!
	Get your messes in!
	What do you say, Marv?
	I'll be damned if I'm gonna clean up this mess!
	Ha ha ha!
	Hey, McClane!
	You get this parking ticket in front of my airport?
	Yeah. Yeah, what the hell?
	It's Christmas!
	Oh, the weather outside is so delightful.
	But the fire is so delightful.
	And since we know place to go...
	Nice summary, Chris.
	Nice summary. All right.
	What else have we got to note before we pick our next movie?
	Or I think I get to pick the next one.
	1990, Finnish Reni Harmen filmed it.
	Of course, the man who is used to the cold.
	Apparently, this was a freezing movie to film.
	The outside scenes were done in Michigan.
	Then we have how much it cost and how much it made.
	62 million. Quite a bit of money back in 1990.
	But it grows 240 million, a success all told.
	All right, before we discuss our next choice, you're going to rate it.
	What do we rate it out of?
	Do we rate it out of tasers?
	Porcelain guns!
	Porcelain Glock 7s.
	How many porcelain Glock 7s out of 10?
	For a modern audience, do you give the sequel, Die Hard 2?
	Look, at the end of the day, this is a lot of fun.
	Everybody will have fun watching it.
	But everybody will see that it is not as good as Die Hard.
	It's not as good as Die Hard with a Vengeance.
	It is the second installment.
	But if you want to live in that world for two more hours...
	You're going to enjoy this film.
	I'm not going to give it the same level as a classic.
	I'm not even going to give it the same level as something that edges toward a classic.
	But I loved it.
	I think there's a certain percentage of the audience that will love it, especially people that, you know, maybe my age.
	But I'll give it seven Glocks.
	I'll give it seven Porcelain Glocks.
	Seven Porcelain Glock sevens.
	I like it, especially because my rating is for the galaxy of all movies.
	And I concur. I too will give it seven ceramic porcelain clock sevens out of ten.
	It's better than people think.
	Your obsession with sequels is well-founded.
	It pays off. It pays off.
	All right, so I had chosen another movie from 1958, 1952, a classic, a little earlier than we usually do.
	But then as we were prepping for the show, I asked Eric about, His favorite movie, and he shocked me, and he said, we haven't reviewed it.
	Eric, what's your favorite movie?
	My favorite movie of all time is the 1982 sci-fi horror classic by John Carpenter, The Thing.
	Chris, are you ready to tremble in your seat?
	I am, because I'm very familiar with The Thing, but I've actually never seen it.
	I can't believe it!
	This is like the 48th time he's said that.
	Classic movies he says he's familiar with but he's never seen.
	Well, this time he's gonna.
	I love it too. Rob Bottin's effects, absolutely incredible.
	The lead, McCready, played by Kurt Russell, superb.
	On and on and on. Next week it is The Thing, Be There or Be Bored.
	I'm Sebastian Gorka.
	This has been Making Movies Great Again with the great Chris Coles.
	His YouTube channel is Mr.
	Reagan. Follow him right now.
	And in the meantime, and especially for the next 30 days, keep your head on a swivel.
	Watch your six. Hold the line.
	Never give up. Never give in.
