Good evening everybody.
You're watching America First.
My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.
We have a great show for you tonight.
Very excited to be back with you here tonight on Wednesday.
We have a lot to talk about tonight.
Lots to get into.
We really don't.
It's such a freaking slow week.
Nothing's going on.
But our featured story tonight is about Russia again.
About more Ukraine stuff.
And we talked about this a few months ago and it's more of a reality today.
Big report in CNBC about how we're running out of military supplies.
We have given so much of our artillery and other heavy weaponry that we have literally run out.
And the United States has said that we're basically just done with certain parts of the arsenal that we're giving to Ukraine, in particular the long-range missiles and the long-range howitzers.
We've given them all the ones that we have, or all the ones that we can spare.
And now the administration says that we cannot give any more of that without getting into our supply that we would actually need in a war.
So it looks like all this support that we're giving to Ukraine may be running out pretty soon because we just don't have enough supplies.
And we're giving Ukraine so much stuff, we just don't make enough of it to replenish it.
In a reasonable amount of time.
And that's because the United States and all the NATO countries are technically in peacetime, so we don't have the level of wartime production that's required for a war, or to sustain a major war effort.
So all this stuff that we've been giving to Ukraine, this is an arsenal that has been built up over the course of 10 or 20 years, and we've given them everything that we made In the 21st century and now we don't have any and it's gonna take, excuse me, another 10 years at the current levels of production to even be able to replenish what has already been sent.
So that's our feature story.
Kind of funny when you think about it.
And we'll also be talking tonight about a major protest in Prague in the Czech Republic protesting the Czech government support for the Russian sanctions and for the Ukrainian war effort.
And we covered this a little bit last night.
This is part of the pressure that is going to come on NATO and the European Union as the winter approaches.
Because even if the government is all on board, even if the government is okay with the recession and with the high energy prices and so on, the people are not.
The consumers are not, and they're the ones that are going to really get squeezed in the coming months, is the businesses in particular.
Because if you look at, for example, in the United Kingdom, they passed a bill to subsidize the energy prices or the energy consumption for individuals, but the businesses are just out of luck.
And in Eastern Europe and in Central Europe, they're not even getting, as of right now, any major relief.
So, we talked earlier this year about it's this retaliatory escalation, this reciprocal escalation which is driving us further and further into the war, and how Russia and the United States and NATO seem to be equally willing and able to continue to escalate.
It seems like that may no longer be the case anymore because of these two factors.
Because of the energy cost, and because we just don't have the kind of wartime production necessary to be able to fight a war with Russia, which is what we're doing.
So, we'll talk about that.
Should be a pretty good show.
Although, like I said, it's just... Man, like, there's not one thing going on.
I know there's a hurricane, but that's not really news.
That's not, like, political.
What's the angle?
So... And by the way, I hope everybody in Florida is doing okay.
I saw there's a... It was Category 4 when it made landfall today, this Hurricane Ian, which is hitting the west coast of Florida.
And apparently it hit near Sarasota, I think about north of Fort Myers, south of Tampa.
I think it's in the middle.
And it made landfall as a Category 4 storm and looks like a lot of flooding.
What do they call that?
They call that a storm surge, I think.
So I hope everybody in Florida is doing okay.
It's gonna be rough.
Even the people that didn't get hit directly by the hurricane.
There's power outages, it's flooding.
So I hope Baked Alaska and all our other friends, Stephen Bonnell, are doing okay.
Although, Stephen Bonnell, he's in Miami, so I don't think they're getting it so bad in Miami, but... Aside from that, there's just nothing going on.
Boring!
Everybody's mad I'm late.
It's like, late?
What is there even to talk about?
What is there even to do tonight?
I should just take, now would be the time to take a month off.
Maybe I'll just take October off and just come back when the election happens, because it always goes like this.
Whenever I'm here, there's nothing going on.
Then when I want to take a break, or I have somewhere to go, or there's travel, that's when all the news happens.
That's when all the stuff happens.
unidentified
So maybe I'll take a break because it's just so slow.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
Although it might not be slow for very long.
Today the U.S.
government and various Eastern European governments told all of their embassy personnel to leave Russia immediately.
Estonia, Latvia, Bulgaria, Romania, and the United States all put out a travel advisory and a warning to their diplomatic personnel to leave Russia.
So what the hell does that mean?
Does that mean they're about to attack?
Does that mean that we're about to attack Russia?
Or is that posturing?
I don't know what that is, but it's kind of freaky.
So maybe it won't be too long before there's some news.
And anyway, before we get into tonight's whatever, remember to follow me here on Cozy, smash the follow button to get a push notification whenever I go live.
Also follow me on Gab Telegram, true social, links are down below.
I think this weekend I'll be doing a major stream.
I don't know though, because I have this wedding on Saturday.
Which my mom told me, she's like, you're going.
You're going to the wedding.
I'm like, okay, I'll go to the wedding.
I told them you're going, so you're going.
Alright.
So, of course, when I have the one weekend I have something going on, Destiny will be debating Jordan Peterson, apparently, on Saturday at 11.30 Central Time.
11.30 in the morning.
So if I can, if I can, I'm gonna try to review it.
I don't know what time the wedding starts.
I think it's not until later.
So maybe I could be a little bit late.
I don't know, but I'd like to do that this weekend.
So that's my announcement.
And I just saw that on Twitter tonight.
So that's my announcement.
I think I'll be reacting to that Saturday 11.30 central time In the morning If I can And it's family But I don't really like weddings I'm going to be real with you I'm gonna be honest, I don't really like them.
And I went to a couple this year and then I said, you know what, I'm kind of, I'm just, I'm not doing it anymore.
I went to a couple weddings this year and after the last one I was like, I'm good on weddings for this year.
I don't think, at least I don't need to make another trip out.
Because you know what happens is everybody I'm everybody's best good friend and all this but people don't live where I live so all my friends are getting married and they're sending their invites to me and it's like now it's not you know if I were in town I'd go to the wedding but they send me the invitation it's like you gotta fly out you gotta get a hotel you gotta pack up you gotta miss a show on Friday you gotta do all this
And I've done it.
I've done it a few times and now it's like, okay, well, you know, I can't go to all the weddings.
I can't go to every wedding.
Okay, I can't go to every wedding.
I've been to a few.
Now I'm just sort of...
If it's not in Chicago, I'm not, I'm probably just not going.
Unless I'm in the wedding.
Unless I'm in, if I'm in the wedding, maybe I can make an exception.
But I'm like flying out to these weddings.
I flew out to this one wedding recently and I'm sat in the back of the, I'm like, I flew out here, I'm in the back of the thing?
Seriously?
That's fine.
It's fine, but it's like... I'll just say this.
It's a lot easier to invite somebody to the wedding than it is for me to pack up all my shit and cancel the show and get a plane and get a hotel and get a rental car and fly out there and drive out there and, you know, all the whole ordeal that it is.
People love inviting me to the wedding and then it's like, now you gotta pack up and get on a plane and fly it.
It's like, you know, I'll send a gift.
I'll send an envelope, okay?
unidentified
I'll send an envelope.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
Okay.
unidentified
I'll send an envelope.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
So, anyway.
So, yeah.
So, I got this wedding on Saturday.
It's okay.
I'm, you know, family.
I gotta go.
I'm gonna go.
But of course, the one time something like mildly interesting happens, I have a... I have a wedding to go to.
So we'll see if I have time to do that.
I don't know when it starts.
I don't know all the customs about this.
I don't know how to act.
I don't know how to behave.
I go to these social functions.
I don't even know what to do.
I feel like that's just a Zoomer thing.
I don't even think that's a me thing.
I think that's a Zoomer thing.
Because you know what happened?
Zoomers were raised by Boomers that didn't really want to teach us anything.
I feel like Boomers, they go on and on about how it was different in those days.
But in those days, their parents taught them how to do stuff.
Or they at least have the freedom to learn things on their own.
And we're like the anarcho-tyranny generation.
You could call it like anarcho-tyranny, because at once, we didn't get the mentorship of the parents that the previous generations got, but we also didn't get the freedom either.
So we were sort of in the middle where they wouldn't tell us how to do anything but also they were very restrictive and helicopter and so we couldn't go out and learn on our own.
And we're in this position where we just grew up to be stunted.
I could make a list of everything that I didn't learn how to do when I was a kid that now I'm kicking myself because now I got to learn how to do as an adult.
Like cooking and car stuff and chores and And even to some extent socializing and that sort of thing although that's it's easy enough to get along in that venue But it's still difficult So Because I think about myself, my parents are like, why don't you just cook?
And I'm like, well, I don't know how to cook anything.
And they're like, you're 24 years old, you don't know how to cook anything?
It's like nobody ever... I was never told how to cook anything, and every time I tried, I got yelled at!
Every time you tried to do something, it was, oh, you're making a big mess, oh, I'll do it, you know?
What's the expectation?
Yeah, I'm an adult that needs to learn how to do things.
I gotta learn now because I didn't learn then.
Don't give me that exasperation.
Somebody says I didn't brush my teeth till I was 16.
Yeah.
Okay, I don't go that far.
So is that a Zoomer thing?
I feel like a lot of Zoomers can relate to that.
We're this generation where the parents want to do everything.
And then we grow up and we're all a bunch of retards.
We're all a bunch of retards, don't know how to do anything.
And that's okay, you learned.
But I wish I learned when I was a teenager.
Instead I was getting yelled at for not doing my homework.
I was getting yelled at for not doing my chemistry homework.
Now I'm a grown man that can't make anything other than scrambled eggs.
So, go figure.
It's on the parents.
That's on the parents.
I blame it on the government.
That's not my fault.
I blame that on my parents.
So anyway, so it's called, we're trying to adjust.
We're trying to adult.
And yeah, so the wedding thing... Is that just me?
I don't really care for it.
It's all these social confes... You know what it is?
Maybe that's where it is, just me.
It's the anti-social thing.
Because I go to these things and you gotta say hi to everybody.
And it's all this small talk and it's all this like... I want to go to these things but just like don't look at me, leave me alone.
Don't look at me, leave me alone.
I want to go to a social function where people, where I could just be present.
Can I just be present?
Can I just go and just exist there?
Instead of all the participation that you've got to do, the effort.
I don't know.
Maybe that's just me.
But anyway.
So like I said.
So we'll do the debate on Saturday.
Destiny vs. Jordan Peterson.
1130 a.m.
Central Time.
If I can make it.
Okay?
That's my announcement.
Alright.
So with that out of the way, we'll dive into the news and...
Yeah, there's just nothing happening.
So our first story is about this protest in Prague, and it's everything we've already been covering.
You already know.
The people in Europe are pissed because the energy is just through the roof.
Major protest in Prague already.
There was a big one on September 3rd, where there were, I think, it was 70,000 people.
70,000 people, like serious crowds in Czech Republic.
And they're protesting the Czech government's support of the sanctions against Russia and the war effort in Ukraine.
And they blame the Czech government for bringing on all this economic pain, the rising energy cost, rising food cost, general inflation.
to participate in this war, which really nobody even wants.
It's not really in anybody's interest within these countries.
So this is the story.
It says, quote, quote, quote, says, quote, quote, quote, says, quote, quote, quote, says, Demonstrators called for Czechia's neutrality and protested Prime Minister Fiala's policy of sanctioning Russia, which has driven up energy prices.
Meeting on a public holiday celebrating Czech statehood, the crowd took to Prague's main square.
Named after the medieval saint and chanted slogans against the European Union, NATO, and the government.
Prague police would not give a specific figure of the estimated crowd size, calling it only tens of thousands.
The protest was organized by a group called Czech Republic First.
Let's go!
Czech Republic First.
It's a little bit... I don't know if that has a great ring to it.
America First.
Czech Republic First.
It's too many... I think that's too many syllables.
Czech Republic first, let's go, which Reuters described as a coalition of far-right and fringe groups and parties including the communists.
Interesting.
CRF opposes the EU and NATO and has called for Czechia's military neutrality.
Do we have any Czech groipers watching, I wonder?
I went to Czech Republic in 2018.
Any Czech groipers?
Sound off if you're in Czech Republic first.
Maybe I'll come visit you.
Because it was nice.
I went to Prague years ago.
It was very nice.
One unidentified speaker at the rally said, a government has two duties to ensure our security and economic prosperity.
This government does not fulfill either of these duties.
Another demonstrator accused the government of being anti-Czech and serving only the European Union, NATO, and American power at the expense of Czech interests.
The organizers called for another protest on October 28th and said they intend to ask President Milos Zeman to disband the government and call for early elections.
It was the second such rally this month after some 70,000 people took part in the September 3rd protest.
Similar rallies in other Czech cities drew hundreds of participants.
Fiala had dismissed the September 3rd demonstrations as pro-Russian, accusing their organizers of listening to Russian propaganda and disinformation campaigns.
His government has diligently followed the lead of Brussels in imposing trade embargoes against Moscow over the conflict in Ukraine, which has translated into skyrocketing prices of energy normally imported from Russia.
So, major protest in the Capitol, and once again you see, like we talked about last night, that it's about the regime.
And that is, if there's one takeaway from the show, it's this.
That what goes on in the world is not, at the end of the day, about... and it is about ideas to some extent, but when you look at these types of situations, it's about power.
That's all that it's about.
And we know that because of these clear-cut examples of hypocrisy.
And what do I mean by this?
Well, this whole thing in Ukraine is about the Maidan.
Right?
Allegedly.
That's the precipitating cause of the conflict.
There's more to it.
There are strategic interests at stake and there's a long-standing geopolitical situation there.
But they say, and the current political crisis is the result of the Maidan coup, which in 2014 was a revolution in Ukraine which deposed the pro-Russian leader who turned down a deal to join the European Union and NATO in favor of closer trade relations with Russia and a promise to join the supranational organizations headed up by Moscow.
So in 2014 there's a coup and Yanukovych, the pro-Russian leader who turned down the EU-NATO deal, is ousted and they put in place a pro-Western leader and it's in response to this that Russia holds a referendum in Crimea and claims that Crimea is annexed to Russia.
They claim Crimea as Russian territory and they begin fueling the separatists in Donbass.
And then the government in Kiev begins militarizing and NATO throws their support behind Kiev and they create this wedge.
But go back to the whole issue at hand, which is the Maidan.
Why was Yanukovych ousted?
They say because of mass protests about... Oh wait, stop right there.
Mass protests.
So the West, Washington, and Brussels They wanted Ukraine to join NATO and the European Union, and when a giant crowd formed demanding that was what they wanted, NATO and the European Union and the United States said, well, Ukraine must join NATO.
The Ukrainian government must follow the will of the people.
The Ukrainian government must become a liberal democracy.
So that's why they supported the revolution, and then they recognized the post-revolutionary government.
When there were mass protests in 2014, that was democracy.
That was democracy, that was legitimate, that was the people making their voices heard.
And when they overthrew the government, the United States supported that, and they recognized the succeeding government, and militarized it.
And that's ostensibly what this is all about.
When you debate liberals, and when I debated Destiny on this, they said that the Ukrainian people have a right to join NATO.
They have a right to join the European Union.
And they express their voice at these protests, or at the ballot.
They say the ballot's rigged though, so we have to listen to the protesters instead.
So when there's a protest in favor of Ukraine joining NATO, which is something that NATO wants, well then that's the will of the people.
And when they get their way, that's a triumph of liberal democracy.
And when Russia invades, well that's an attack on democracy by autocracy.
That's an attack on rule of the people by those that want to see rule by an autocrat, by a dictator.
Okay.
But when 100,000 people in Prague protest the sanctions because energy costs are through the roof and food prices are through the roof and inflation is 10%, well, their own government says, well, that's pro-Russian.
They're eating, they're consuming Russian propaganda.
That's not, that's not really the voice of the people.
We can safely And justly dismiss that and ignore that because those protesters, those people marching in the streets, 70,000 of them, well they're wrong.
They're wrong and they're just reading fake news that was given to them by Russia.
They're ignorant.
They have no agency.
We don't need to listen to that.
That's not the will of the people.
That's not democratic.
They're all Russian shells, okay?
So which is it?
Are mass protests in the Capitol the will of the people that should be respected under every circumstance and never has foreign involvement?
Or if there's a giant protest, is it the result of fake news?
Well, it seems to depend on what the regime wants.
It seems to depend on whether what the protesters want is in line and consistent with what the regime wants.
Insofar as what the protesters call for is not what they want, it's the result of foreign interference and disinformation or they're extremists or something like that.
If it is in line with what they want, well then it's a great triumph, and it's democracy, and that's what it looks like.
And you see that across the board.
That was BLM, and Antifa, and the Women's March, and everything like that.
That was all welcomed.
When it was violence against Trump, and the Trump government, and Trump supporters, or even just by their allies, even just by Antifa, or by black people, then it was fine.
And that was the will of the people, which we must listen to.
But when it's people they don't like, or an agenda they don't like, well then it's everything wrong with the world.
When it's the Trump supporters doing Stop the Steal, well, that was anti-democratic and the result of Russian interference.
And when it's in Prague, and when it's in Germany, and when it's in Italy, it's foreign interference.
That's why you can't listen to any of the propaganda.
And I remember debating with Destiny about this and I keep bringing that up because he's the perfect example of a true believer.
Because to me, all of this seems so obvious.
It seems so transparent.
But this country is full of true believers who really are buying into the liberal narrative on these things, which is that every protest that is backed by the CIA really is organic, and completely democratic, and they're freedom fighters, and we should support whatever comes next.
And anything that's a reverse is not.
So when, as I said the other night, When Ukraine holds a runoff in 2004 against their own constitution and they elect Yushchenko, the pro-western leader in the Orange Revolution, that was a democracy.
When Russia invades and holds referendums in the Ukrainian territories or in Donbass or in Crimea, oh well they were obviously rigged.
It was under duress.
A referendum under the threat of force is not legitimate.
We can't count those reasons.
Okay, really?
And when an election is held in the United States where half the ballots are mail-in and there's serious doubts about its authenticity by most of the opposition, oh well, they're extremists, censor them, it's disinformation, arrest the protesters, shut it down.
When Vladimir Putin gets elected in Russia and he's got a 60% approval rating, oh well that's all fake, that's because of propaganda, oh that's brainwashing, whatever.
Now it's not to say that it's all or nothing, that either all elections are fake or all elections are legitimate.
Because that would be ridiculous.
Some elections are fake and some elections are real.
But the point is that clearly there are no such thing as neutral parties when we're talking about a war.
Certainly we cannot trust the State Department and the Defense Department and our own government, which is a party to this war, to objectively discuss the war.
But that is what many liberal ideologues expect.
unidentified
Which is wrong.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
I'm willing to believe that some elections are fair and some are not.
I'm willing to believe that some protests are the will of the people and some are not.
But who is to say?
And who is to draw the line?
Well, on the other side they say it's got to be the government.
It's got to be the government and it's got to be the intelligence agencies and it's got to be the NGOs or private entities that are in bed with the government, that contract with the government.
Who's going to determine what's real and fake news?
unidentified
Facebook.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
And who does Facebook bring on to determine what is extremism?
People that used to work in the State Department.
People that used to work in the government.
So it's really like, I mean you could say it's a private company, but it's like it's the government.
And we're expecting all these entities, public or private, but they really all come from the security state.
And they're the ones that are going to tell us what is good, and what is bad, and what is true, and what is false.
And they are supposed to be the authority on that.
The government, our American government, which has the biggest and most sophisticated intel operation, spy operation, diplomatic operation in the world, we're supposed to believe that when we intervene in other countries, it's totally justified, it's totally legit, totally organic, it's what they want, it's better.
When other countries do it, it's evil, it's an act of war, they did that to spread their hateful ideology, and so on.
And so waking up is realizing the people in Prague are not Russian shills.
They're people that don't want to pay a thousand percent more for energy because of a war that isn't their own.
And what is the interest of the Czech Republic in supporting the sanctions against Russia because they invaded Ukraine?
How does, in what way does that even concern Czech Republic?
It's closer to Ukraine than the United States.
What's their, what's their angle?
What do they get from that?
If you're a person living in Poland or Czech Republic or any of the countries that are not the United States or Belgium or a handful of other beneficiaries, what's your angle?
All you're getting is higher energy prices.
The sanctions are not stopping Russia.
The war is ongoing.
The war happened.
Russia invaded.
How does that even work as a deterrent?
Because the argument would go something like, well, we've got to punish Russia because if we don't, then Russian aggression will go unchecked, and theoretically, then one day, Russia may invade Czech Republic.
But does anybody seriously think Russia will invade Czech Republic anytime soon?
Czech Republic's a part of NATO.
Isn't that what NATO exists for?
So that invading one, attacking one, is an attack on all, and Russia would never do that?
Well, newsflash, Ukraine isn't in NATO.
So in what world does Russia invading Ukraine, a non-NATO country, create some kind of threat to the NATO countries, particularly one like that, which is not very close.
Or not, I should say, on the border.
I mean, they're just getting screwed over.
They're participating in this coalition of democracy led by Washington against Russia, and it's not to deter Russia.
It's not even to win this war.
The goal is, and there's a few things going on here, but I guess the primary goal is to just make Russia lose money, which is something that just benefits the American grand chessboard strategy.
That's it.
They know that Russia's not going to lose this war.
They know that the sanctions and all of this, it's not going to stop Russia.
All it's going to do is weaken an adversary of the United States.
An adversary which, by the way, cannot even really threaten the United States.
But it just makes the adversary less able to project power in its immediate vicinity, which allows the United States to do more of that.
Which is project power in the vicinity of Russia.
So what Czech Republic is paying for is essentially for the right of the United States to project power even further than they already do.
They're fighting for the ability of Washington to pick up where Russia has receded because of the damage to their economy as a result of the United States making this war very painful for them.
If the United States supplies Ukraine with weapons, then it makes the war more costly, more deadly for Russia.
It destroys more of their supplies.
The longer the sanctions go on, the larger the contraction of the Russian economy will be.
And so they want to make this as costly Why is that in their best interest?
Why is that good for them?
that their adversary will be weakened and that in the theoretical balance of power that governs global hegemony will make america more powerful so why are czech why are people in czech republic paying a thousand percent more for their energy for that why is that in their best interest why is that good for them why is that worth what they're paying because you could argue in america if we were paying a high cost like that which we really aren't we're paying the gas price
that that is that is really the main effect of the war in russia on the united states We're suffering a little bit from the food inflation, a little bit from the energy inflation, but not to the extent they are in Europe.
But even still, you could argue, is it worth it for America?
Well, at least our country benefits in some way.
At least our government benefits in some way.
But it's totally disconnected from the advantage or the plight of the average European citizen in a European country.
And that goes for Czech Republic, that goes for Germany, Italy, France, Portugal, you name it.
What's the benefit?
And that just goes to show the globalism is the scourge of the entire world.
It's not just happening in America, it's all these governments that are dominated by global government.
That's what globalism is.
We said the other day, and this is what Sam Francis outlined 30 years ago, It's a globalization of the population with immigration, of the economy with free trade, and of the government with global government.
And so in the 1990s, you see the triumph of open borders, free trade agreements, And you see the triumph of these supernational institutions like the EU, and NATO, and the UN, and the IMF, and the WTO, and all these, which subordinate the sovereignty of the national government.
And you think about these countries, or at least I do, as the hinterlands.
This is all the way on the other side of the world.
But on the other side of the world, they're having the same problem.
It's actually probably even more acute.
Because at least America To the extent that it's our government, which it really isn't, but to the extent that it bears our name and we could be elected and work in it and so on, at least it's our government which is running the institutions.
We still have the same problem.
But you would say it's more acute for someone in Czech Republic because their government works for our government.
So it's a scourge of the entire world, and over there, it's the communists and the nationalists teaming up for the same thing, which is, hey, it's not about ideology.
We want a government that puts the people first, puts the national interest first, rather than these abstract, theoretical, universal values or goals.
They're playing America's chessboard game?
Why?
They're in NATO.
Isn't that part of the deal?
Why now do they have an obligation to pay for Ukraine's war?
Ukraine isn't even in NATO and it shouldn't be for all the reasons we've discussed at length all year.

So...

That's what's going on in Czech Republic.
That one's a Russian shill protest.
But if they're protesting for BLM or immigrants, it would be legit, and we should change the policies based on it.
If it's something they don't want, ah well, shut up.
We're not listening to you.
You're just paid for by Russia.
Okay.
And I know we all know that, but it's pretty rich.
I mean...
When we say that the Maidan was influenced by the United States, people say there's no evidence for that, there's no evidence that the United States supported the coup in Kiev in 2014.
Oh, okay.
70,000 people protesting in Prague because they don't want to pay a 1,000% increase in energy?
Oh, well, they're all paid for by Russia.
Oh, seriously?
So, when, again, When all these coups happen all over the world, when all these revolutions happen, well that's total when hijabis, when the women in Iran are burning their hijabs, that's all organic and we need to listen to them and we don't have our fingerprints all over that.
And when, who was it, Newland, Victoria Newland, when she sponsors and makes a comment on a phone call about how they were behind the Maidan in 2014, oh well that's not real evidence, there's no evidence we're behind that.
But when Trump wins the election, blame it on Russia.
Why?
13 Russian citizens bought $10,000 worth of Facebook ads in Michigan.
Okay.
And so on.
So it's more hypocrisy, and I hate to do the hypocrisy thing because as time goes on I question how useful it is to point that out, but the fact remains it elucidates a little bit of what's going on.
That's the red pill, which is that what we're being told about these things, it's obviously just state propaganda.
There's no way around that.
It doesn't even get reported in the United States.
They didn't even, they didn't report on the Yellow Vest Movement throughout the Trump administration.
They just didn't talk about it.
Just like they don't talk about the protests against the sanctions against Russia, just like they never talked about the protests against the mask mandates or the vax passes throughout Europe, which were going on So they choose what to cover, and they choose what not to cover, and the things that they support and they like are the triumph of democracy and we need to support that, and the things they don't like are evil and supported by extremists or foreign states.
Except for when we like it, then that's impossible.
So that's Czech Republic, but we've heard about that, and the hope, the goal, is that These governments will be replaced by anti-EU governments.
That's the goal.
The goal is that, and this is why I wasn't so happy about the new Prime Minister in Italy, is that the goal of things getting so bad like this is we want people to want to destroy the European Union and want to destroy NATO.
We want a nationalist uprising that's catalyzed by these horrible abuses visited on the people by rule from Brussels or rule from London or rule from Berlin or Washington.
That's what we want.
We want the people that are out there protesting to go then and elect a government that says we're out of the EU.
We want that in Hungary.
We want that in Czechia.
We want that in France.
We want that in Italy.
We want that in the United States.
But you question how possible that is with rigged elections and rigged media.
But anyway, we're gonna move on.
I want to get into our featured story which is about the stockpile.
I gotta loosen this tie.
Like, I can't breathe right now.
Okay.
So we're gonna move on.
We'll get into our featured story about the NATO stockpile being totally diminished by the war.
And we already covered this months ago.
But it's back in the news and we said this was going to be a problem.
I think it was back in August or July.
They talked about how our arsenal was basically just empty.
We're giving and when Biden gives $80 billion to Ukraine, you have to understand we're paying for this stuff.
It's not like we're giving them that in cash.
What could they do with the cash?
We're giving them $80 billion worth of equipment, which is crazy.
Because our annual budget is like $700 billion.
Our annual military budget is $700 billion.
So if we're giving Ukraine, which I think the new number is $100 billion, they just greenlit another $20 or $30 billion.
If we're giving Ukraine $100 billion, we're not just giving them that in cash, which cash is worthless.
We print cash all day long.
It doesn't matter.
We give them a trillion, we could give them a million trillion, just print more of it.
That's what we did in 2020.
We just printed $4 trillion.
We're giving them $100 billion worth of supplies.
We're appropriating $100 billion worth of money to pay for the stuff to send to them.
So we're giving them one-seventh, which is a not negligible percentage of our annual military budget, the entire Russian country.
Russia pays $65 billion per year on their military.
That's their military budget for the year.
And we're giving Ukraine twice that In seven months.
Twice, close to twice, the annual military budget of Russia in seven months.
And we're not even in the war!
And that's just on equipment that we're giving them, and bullets, and things like that.
And so, earlier this summer, they talked about how we're gonna run out of stuff.
Because we don't make that much stuff.
We have a peacetime defense industry.
So we're not making artillery, we're not making missiles, we're not making missile launchers and bullets, we're just simply not making enough stuff to support a war.
And we certainly don't have enough stuff sitting around to support a prolonged war like that, or at least enough stuff to give to another country fighting a war like that.
So back in the summer they talked about how our stockpile is empty and pretty soon we're just going to start eating into the stuff that we need to fight our own wars.
Well now that day has finally come and this is a new report from CNBC.
It says, quote, in the U.S.
weapons industry, the normal production level for artillery rounds for the 155mm howitzer, which is a long-range heavy artillery weapon currently used on the battlefields of Ukraine, is about 30,000 rounds per year in peacetime.
That's how much ammunition we make for that particular kind of artillery piece in one year.
unidentified
30,000 rounds.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
The Ukrainian soldiers fighting invading Russian forces go through that amount in roughly two weeks.
That's according to an associate professor and senior military fellow at US National Defense University, Dave DeRoche.
And he's worried.
He says, I'm greatly concerned.
Unless we have new production, which takes months to ramp up, we're not going to have the ability to supply the Ukrainians.
Europe is running low, too.
He said the military stocks of most European NATO member states have been, I wouldn't say exhausted, but depleted in a high proportion because we have been providing a lot of capacity to the Ukrainians.
This is Josep Borrell, the EU's High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy.
NATO Secretary General Jen Stoltenberg held a special meeting of the Alliance's Arms Directors on Tuesday.
To discuss ways to refill member nations' weapons stockpiles.
Military analysts point to a root issue.
Western nations have been producing arms in much smaller volumes during peacetime, with governments opting to slim down very expensive manufacturing and only producing weapons as needed.
Some of the weapons that are running low are no longer being produced at all, and highly skilled labor and experience are required for their production, things that have been in short supply across the U.S.
manufacturing sector for years.
The U.S.
has been by far the largest supplier of military aid to Ukraine in its war with Russia.
Several of the American-made weapons have been game-changers for the Ukrainians, particularly the 155mm guns and long-range heavy artillery, like the Lockheed Martin-made high-mobility artillery rocket system.
The U.S.
has essentially run out of 155mm howitzers to give to Ukraine.
To send any more, it would have to dip into its own stocks reserved for U.S.
military units to use them for training and readiness.
But that's a no-go for the Pentagon.
What this means for Ukrainian forces is that some of their most crucial battlefield equipment is having to be replaced with older and less optimum weaponry.
Other weapons Ukraine relies on that are now classified as limited include those HIMARS launchers, Javelin missiles, Stinger missiles, the M777 howitzer, and 155mm ammunition.
The Javelin, produced by Raytheon and Lockheed Martin, has gained an iconic role in Ukraine.
The shoulder-fired, precision-guided anti-tank missile has been indispensable in combating Russian tanks.
But production in the United States is low, at a rate of around 800 per year.
And Washington has now sent 8,500 to Ukraine.
More than a decade's worth of production.
So again, it goes back to what I was saying earlier.
There's no way that we're gonna win this war.
There's just no way.
It's just not possible.
And we're running into all these feasibility issues like, guess what?
We're out of gas!
We're out of energy!
Germany is out of energy and they can't get any more of it.
The energy that they've lost Because of the destruction of Nord Stream 1 and 2, and because of the sanctions on Russia, they cannot replace.
They cannot replace all of it.
And they need it!
Their supply will fall short of demand this winter.
So that means layoffs, that means factory closures, that means business closures, that means a recession.
They can't replace it.
They relied on cheap gas coming through pipelines to support their energy demand and those pipelines got exploded.
What do you do now?
Build a nuclear plant in three months?
Good luck!
Build a nuclear plant and hook it up to... It doesn't work like that!
Hook up the nuclear power plant to the blown-up pipelines?
It doesn't work like that!
You're out of energy.
You're out of luck.
You're done.
You're in a recession.
And the same thing goes for the Ukrainian military.
They're talking about, this war is going to go on for years and we're going to beat back Russia.
How are you going to do that?
The casualty rate is 10 to 1.
Ukrainians are dying at a rate of 10 for every one Russian killed in the war.
So, you're going to run out of people.
And if you don't run out of people, you're going to run out of equipment.
The Russians, every day, are destroying Ukrainian equipment.
With their artillery, with their airpower, with now kamikaze drones, which they have from Iran.
And so the Ukrainians are getting their weapons depots destroyed, their barracks destroyed, and they're relying on this life support from the United States, which is these weapons which we're sending them.
We're running out of weapons!
And guess what?
There's not a limitless supply of weapons.
You gotta make more.
One problem, we don't make that much.
Well, why don't you make more of it?
We can't.
We don't make the people that make those things.
We don't make the engineers that make those things.
We don't make the manufacturing workers that make those things.
We don't build the factories that make those things.
We don't even have the raw materials to make those things, like the optics or...
Other components, the semiconductors.
We don't even make the things that make the things.
We don't make the people that make the things or the facilities that make the things.
So we can't even make more of it even if we wanted to.
We don't even make them anymore.
So can one person tell me how Ukraine is going to win the war if they're running out of people, they're running out of weapons, and they're running out of energy?
Like there's just... what do you do at that point?
Well, I'll tell you what happens.
You just lose.
You just start to lose.
You lose.
And it seems that we're not far off from the Ukrainian war effort collapsing.
Not like slowly getting beat back like it has been for the past seven months where it's been a stalemate and slow gains.
It seems like the date is fast approaching when the Ukrainian Armed Forces are just going to collapse.
Just collapse!
And the Russians are going to make a beeline for Odessa, and maybe for Kiev, and the war will be over very quickly.
Because how is this going to continue?
I don't see it.
On the Russian side, conversely, they're doing fine.
The Russian economy is going to contract 6%.
That's about how much GDP the United Kingdom is losing because of their sanctions on Russia.
The Russian economy is losing 6% which, all things considered, is not a big deal.
And if you don't know, GDP is consumption, investment, and your exports minus your imports.
That's how it's calculated.
So when you say it's a 6% contraction in GDP, of course the GDP will contract.
They're being sanctioned by the biggest economies in the world.
They're being sanctioned by the United States, France, the Eurozone.
The European Union and the United States are the two biggest economies in the world, if you take the EU as one unit.
So of course their trade will be diminished.
Of course their consumption and investment is going to be hurt by this.
Of course economic activity will decline when you get completely cut off from the two biggest economies in the world and your foreign currency reserve stolen and your currency being blocked from trading with the dollar, which is how all international trade is denominated.
But 6%?
That's not really that bad.
They were saying 15%, 10%.
Probably before the end of the year they'll reduce the forecast even lower.
So meanwhile in Russia, they're gonna have enough energy.
They make the energy.
They're gonna have enough food.
They make the food.
They'll be good.
And as far as their capacity, well they're running into some problems as well.
They seem to be running into an issue where they may have to buy more missiles from other countries.
But the fortunate thing about Russia is that they're allied with China, which makes things.
China makes things.
China and Iran and Russia, they all make things because they have to.
And you're starting to see the problem that I laid out earlier this year, which is that it is going to be these countries on the world island which are benefiting from this war.
And the countries of the world seas, the country of trade, which is the United States, the country that gets its wealth from trading with all the other countries because of its rule of the seas, they seem to be at the disadvantage.
We seem to be at the disadvantage here.
Who is hurt more by an embargo on trade?
If China banned us from trade, who would hurt more?
Probably in real terms, we would, because take a look at all of the essential minerals and the essential other raw materials that are needed for advanced manufacturing.
They all come from China.
Almost all of them come from China, with few exceptions.
Lithium is for the batteries.
That's in South America and in Spain.
And hafnium is made in France, and there's a few ones that are in Europe, and there's a few ones that are in the United States, beryllium.
But all of, but almost all of them are made in China.
Almost all of the raw materials that are needed in advanced manufacturing are the most, the vast quantities of them are found in China, or in Central Asia, or in Russia.
Or in those countries that are allied with Russia and China.
So who's gonna fare better?
If it's gonna turn into, as all wars eventually do, a question of industry and a question of economic output, who's gonna win that war?
The countries that preside over the land from the Volga River to the Sea of Japan?
unidentified
Or is it gonna be America?
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
America and Europe?
Hate to break it to ya, but it's probably gonna be Uh, Eurasia that's gonna win that war in the long run.
If that's what it turns into.
unidentified
Just like it was in World War II.
nick fuentes ▲ ● ▼
World War II, it was a big, obviously the United States had a big impact because of our industrial capacity, but it was really Russia's ability to ramp up production.
It was Russia that was able to win the war back then.
And it's Russia that's gonna win this war now, and it's Russia and China that are gonna win the war of the future as well.
If this is how it's gonna go.
So that's the situation in Ukraine.
I love to see it.
It looks like a lot of positives for Russia this week between the annexation of those four territories, the mobilization of the reservists, the United States running out of supplies.
If the Ukrainians don't have those long-range missiles, they're just gonna lose.
How do you fight an enemy that has a longer artillery range than you do?
In other words, you're over here and they're over here.
And they can hit you from where they are, and you can't hit them from where you are.
How do you win that?
How do you win that war?
If they've got air superiority, if they've got drone superiority, if their reach is farther with artillery, how do you hit an enemy that can hit you from further away?
It's not gonna happen.
And pretty soon, the same
Social unrest that you see in Europe you're gonna start to see in Ukraine They talk about their civil unrest in Russia because of the conscriptions just wait It's only a matter of time before that happens in Ukraine and they go and try and kill Zelensky or do a revolution or something because I Mean they got to recognize when it's over and it's over here so or at least it's about to be over in short order and
So that's the situation with Ukraine and the United States.
And it also is a sad reflection on the state of our military that we just don't make this stuff anymore.
We're not the arsenal of democracy anymore.
The weapons that we will eventually need in the future, we just don't even make anymore.
And you almost have to wonder what that would look like for the United States.
Where are they going to get the people that are going to make these things in the future?
As you look around the country and we've got this military that's having this recruiting crisis.
The military just can't hit its recruitment numbers anymore.
And the people that we are recruiting, it's a lot of good old boys, a lot of southerners, a lot of legacy people, and to some extent there's minorities in the military.
Where is the army of the future going to come from in the United States?
And what is the economy going to look like that supports that military?
I don't know how that's going to work.
And this is where personnel becomes policy.
It's like I've said, for the same reasons that you're going to have planes falling out of the sky because they have to bring on women pilots for affirmative action, it's the same reason the U.S.
military is not going to win a war against China in the future.
Who are we picking to lead the military?
Who are we picking to be in the military and make the stuff?
Because if it's anything like the people that make everything else here, it's not going to be doing so hot.
So, that's what we're headed towards.
Sort of foreshadowing.
This conflict should be a huge red flag for the United States.
We are not prepared.
But that may be a good thing for us, I guess, if the United States turns out to be the paper tiger here.
But that's that.
We're gonna move on.
We'll take a look at our Super Chats and see what you guys have to say.
Kind of a slow day.
Not a lot of stuff we haven't already talked about, so... I mean, it is what it is, but...
Let's take a look.
We'll see.

I mean, I don't think I have the best work ethic.
What gets you going?
Well, I would say I'm a good worker under certain conditions.
What gets me going?
I don't think there's any trick.
Work is hard.
I don't think anybody really wants to work.
Some people do, but the point is, is it's uncomfortable.
If people could not work, would they?
If people could choose recreation or work, how many people would really choose work?
Certainly there's some people out there that they really love what they do.
