RattlerGator Report: 9/9/26 - LSU's SEC Showdown and a Deep Dive on American Power

0:00The badlands, you want to get the badlands, explain those badlands. That's a hell of a name. Good morning. Good morning. Oh Lord. I've left just give me a second. I've left open another account and I've got to close.

1:01Well, now I can't find. I've got to mute myself for a second. Just so I don't hear the echo. I'm still here in the dam. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the rally get a report for September 9, 2026. This is episode 42.3. I am not going to continue with this. So you're going to just have to wait and let old band figure out where did I put that that other account. Don't want to shut all of your down.

2:05But that's what I'm going to have to do. As a process of our imagination. There it is. All right. That should have solved the problem. I do not hear the yay. Oh my Lord, I tell you. I'm uncomfortable with this setup. And for the life of me, I can't quite figure out how to set it up so that I'm comfortable with it. And that means I'm probably just going to have to say the hell with it and y'all probably already know I don't like.

3:10I'm not going to do that. It's going to bug me. But look, OK, we got all kinds of stuff theoretically to go through as we race through this hour yet again. I've put in this cynical, poobliest piece that's a long read. And I may not get to it today. But we shall see. I wanted to because look, I apologize on Monday. I'm not going to do a show on Monday. And in my mind, it was like, unless you hear from me that I am going to do the show. Don't schedule it. And yeah, I had not communicated that to Jessica or anybody else. So that is totally on me. I was down in Miami. All kinds of stuff was going on. And here we are. OK, here we are. I wanted to briefly, without getting on the show, I wanted to briefly, without getting off track, you know, I'm a sports fanatic. And I'm super happy with my gators.

4:11That is the only thing that really matters right now. I am super happy with the gators. I am damn South Carolina State Bulldogs came down to Miami. Beat up all my family ratlers. I'm not happy about that. My wife is very happy about that. And then of course, there's this craziness with Western Michigan and the big 10 and Michigan. And I'm not going to. I'm not going to ramble on that. But yeah, Western Michigan won that game. And why they would even dare. I just don't understand. But you know, look, we've also got this LSU foolishness. Why would they even dare? And you know, I don't think I pulled up. And you know, this is part of the problem with my not being comfortable with my setup.

5:17And you know, I'm working off of two laptops. And because I'm distracted with the protocol and the setup and make sure you get X, Y, Z, done. Anyway, so I've got to pull up. I prepped it on that damn. Anyway, you don't. I mean, not. Get you involved in. I'm not really a new sheet. I don't need. Is of importance to me. But. I'm going to have to force myself to do the final. Prep for the show on this laptop. Because otherwise I'll forget as I'm rushing around. And I don't wind up getting this thing. And so I'm going to post.

6:19I put the stuff in the chat. But for those who don't really focus on the chat. I'm going to. Again, I am sports to me is so important in its intertwined into what's happening in America. And people just don't get it. And I think this LSU example, if you are not a sports fan, college sports fan, you probably don't even know what the hell I'm talking about. But. We have a problem in this country that's not sports related. But it bleeds into sports. And that is we've given way too much depth to judges and lawyers. And these anal retentive motherfuckers really find it easy to just screw things up. And we have a prime example with LSU in the southeastern conference where a state court judge in Louisiana dares to think he's going to dictate to the southeastern conference what the fuck they can and cannot do.

7:32And if you're going to be a judge, don't get power hungry as if you can dictate what is your authority. Part of the problem I've said this is, you know, we got a media that keeps talking about what the Supreme Court allows allows that's the wrong damn word. They're acknowledging some authority or they're not acknowledging some authority and allowing shit. And it drives me crazy because it makes anal retentive people like this state court judge in Louisiana. I think they've got all kinds of power to do stuff that they don't have the authority to do. And anyway, it has upset me.

8:32You can tell. And I don't think of the issue is quite as the media is reporting it. Again, we've got dumbassery in the media. But I don't think the southeastern conference gives a damn about these two players for real for real at LSU that they were trying to play. Let me go ahead and present this screen. Let me see. Present. And I'm going to have to not get off track because I could talk a whole hour about this foolishness. But LSU talked all this big and bad shit. Okay, they just so big and bad and powerful. And they were going to add these two players to their roster who had gone up and participated in the NFL tryouts and preseason, all this other kind of stuff.

9:34And the SEC said, no, you're not. And LSU said, yes, hell we are. And they sued and state court. And of course, the judge did exactly what LSU wanted to do. Now, here's the thing. You almost have to be a sports fan who has tracked some of this stuff as a SEC fan. I mean, really tracked it because a bunch of SEC people don't understand what's happening here. This ain't about laying kiffin. I mean, we don't have to think about these two players. This is about a lack of institutional control. Okay, and it ain't about the football to really get to the heart of this. You've got to understand that the governor of Louisiana, essentially dictated to the athletic director of LSU, that, yeah, you're going to fire our basketball coach. So that we can bring back this will wait, Mofu, who had gotten us in trouble with the NCAA going off the North Carolina state.

10:42And the athletic director, a Baton Rouge native, an LSU graduate and an elite athletic director who had worked his way up to Texas, A&M as athletic director and then came home to LSU. That athletic director said, no, hell, we're not doing that shit. And do you know what the governor of Louisiana said? Yeah, he essentially said, we're going to fire your ass. And they did. And after firing his ass, they put in a new athletic director who brought that will way boy back from North Carolina state to be the basketball coach. That's the beginning of this shit that has pissed off the SEC and it's them talking about lack of institutional control. Okay. And the lane kiffin stuff just follows it on. Because lane kiffin is a dumb fuck and he's making LSU be a dumb fuck. And this is me saying sooner or later LSU was going to bend the fucking knee and they are going to get punished by the South East and Conference.

11:47You can bet your bottom dollar on that. They are going to get punished because they've been dumbasses. But here we are. I've got the stuff on the screen. How do you know they're bending the knee on three is reporting that LSU is adding two players to reach the 105 man roster eliminating the possibility of adding former NFL players, Desquandrite and Xavier Harris. Now LSU was trying to be too clever by half and they had 103 man roster saving these two spots based on the court activity to allow these two players. But this is the indication that yeah, you fucked up. They're bending the knee. And all we're waiting on now is to see how this plays out through different little court actions or whatever. But we know what the end result is going to be. They are going to humble themselves or they're going to get put the fuck out. And the whole conference is behind this.

12:50The whole conference does not give a damn if LSU gets put out really and truly. Because we can't have this kind of bullshit. We just can't. And that is going to play out just watch and see. All right, I've spent enough time on that. Let me stop sharing. Now. The next thing I need to do and I'm going to have to try and figure out, am I going to follow the chat. This is another thing. Why I'm so damn uncomfortable. I've got to put something. I've got to figure something out so that I can see it. That I have a turn and you know. Oh man, I don't want to bitch in my I don't want to bitch in my own. But. I want it to talk today about the world of competing confusions. Because so much is integrated your discernment. And I see it all over the place. In Badlands media, the content creators and all this other kind of stuff.

13:53And we do a poor job of seriously contemplating this world of competing confusions. Now, I put a link in the chat on Don server. He's got a beautiful piece. Bitter old women against Maga and it is phenomenal. Now, I'm not going to read it. I'm just going to highlight it for you. Because it taps into the next post this Walter Russell me piece on why the world order is collapsing. And America power is rising. I'm going to play a long excerpt. Maybe eight. Nine minutes, but it's very good. From a political scientist point of view. And this is what you need. It seems to me. To really tune up your discernment. On what is happening. In our country right now with all of these politicians and things like that.

14:56Because what Don server is pointing out is you've got a crowd of people. Who are not conservatives. The way. The majority of conservatives in this country think of themselves. The majority of Republicans. And what they are is. I don't want to say grifters. That maybe too harsh. But they certainly are opportunists. And they've come from a crowd. An establishment crowd. And we've got there's not just one establishment. Crowd in this country. This is what you have to understand. This is the difficulty. That's why we have so many invisible enemies that people just. They want to do something of a binary. No, there's a multiplicity of invisible enemies who are sometimes doing battle with one another. But at all times. Doing battle against we the people. That is what's going on.

15:58And so Don highlighted. Megan Kelly. Is that yeah. Yeah. Megan McCain. I think I'm having doubts about the names now for some reason. And Tucker Carlson. And as a jab to Tucker, he included him in the bitter old women against maggot. Because what is this punk motherfucker doing? What is he doing? And I don't know. Again, because his father was CIA. Y'all may remember I read the obituary wrote for his father loved it. They really brought the father to life. It touched me. But is this motherfucker doing something with the CIA? Is it with the rogue element of the CIA that is working against Donald Trump? Or is he doing. Again, what I'm convinced the Santas was doing drawing out. People. He's playing a role.

16:59That Donald Trump needs him to play. I've said, y'all, look, this is why we live in the world of competing confusions. They can often be a 51-49. And who the hell really and truly knows. Okay. Who the hell really and truly knows. That's part of the difficulty of what, you know, Badlands media is trying to address. You know, there's a attempt to help individual Americans with their discernment. And even within our group, there are strong, differing opinions. It's part of being an American and, you know, being free to think what the hell you want. And figure things out the way you figure things out. And so I'm going to play this piece. I've got a first got to. Oh, Lord, you know, just.

18:02Once again, I did not. Okay, let's stop. Let's stop. This video is getting ready to load. And it's like, okay, is this at the right. Is this at the right segment? Yeah, it is. Essentially, but. I did not load my advertisement. That's what I just figured out. I'm hoping. I'm hoping my advertisements are the same. As. Last week, if not. I might be in a little bit of trouble. And you know, Jessica gave me. Because I'm still trying to, I'm still. I'm still trying to get back in the groove.

19:03And it's like, oh, yeah, that's right. I have to do this to get these advertisements from the Google Drive. And it's easy for me to forget that. Because my ass is old, as y'all know. And let's see. What do we have? I'm going to have to go to the chat. And see how much spillover do I have? How much are y'all laughing at me? Okay, that is. That is not what I need. What the hell is. I'm looking at. Yeah, I'm about to get upset.

20:04Really upset with myself because I've done something incredibly stupid. And I'm drawing a blank yet again on. Okay, where is that? It's in the shared. I know that, but. Wow. Wow. I'm not saying damn the audience. Damn the dead space. Figure this thing out. It's. Wow.

21:09Wow. I am. And I'm trying to remember. How I did this. I created a shortcut just so that I would not ever have this brain cramp. And. And yet here I am with the spring cramp. And this is, you know, when I was on this extended break. It's like, yeah, man, this is this is. This is some young people shit. Maybe you need to leave this damn thing alone. Wow.

22:09I'm going to have to. I'm going to have to leave the ads alone. I'm going to have to leave the ads alone because the brain cramp is total. As soon as I shut the showdown, I'm going to remember exactly what I need to do. Because it's incredibly simple. And wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. I'm going to have to go to this video. I'm going to play this. I'm going to play this long video. It's eight or nine minutes. And that may give me time to go on the other laptop and figure out, okay, play the hell of my ads. And I can at least get some of them in. And at worst, I'll just do the one from last week because that's already in the system. That may not be what they intended, but at the very least, I can at least get these ads done. 36, 51 minute mark, 36, 51 minute mark.

23:17Okay, so that's tuned up. Let me share the screen. And, okay, so then. Wow. Play the video. And get myself off the screen. Interesting. One of the interesting things about America is that we are it. Our foreign policy arguments are very repetitive. Basically, if something comes up in foreign policy, we'll argue about it in many of the same ways they would have done in George Washington's day. Our views of the country and a foreign policy fairly predictably fall into one of four baskets. And what I do call Hamiltonian, Alexander Hamilton, and what you see is a strong capitalist economy that is trading effectively with the rest of the world provides the sort of money and the technological progress that holds society together.

24:29And so, you know, we're going to have a strong federal government that does things like promote infrastructure at home that sees itself as trying to help major American companies succeed internationally. And so, you know, we're going to have a strong government that's going to help major Americans succeed in some ways. Then you have people who say, oh, money, that's just so vulgar. What about human rights? And would argue, you know, what causes the threats that America faces? Well, it's bad governance, dictatorships. American foreign policy should be about promoting democracy globally, promoting international institutions. Let's get rid of war by getting rid of the causes of war. And that's a kind of Wilsonian approach, which we certainly had actually long before Woodrow Wilson.

25:34Then you've got people who say, wait a minute, the thing that's great about America is personal liberty. In fact, the government doesn't control us all and isn't taxing us to death. If we get involved, whether it's these Wilsonians crusades for human rights or Hamiltonian great power balance of politics, international finance, what we're going to have is a powerful government that has secrets from the American people, runs colossal defense budgets, gets us into endless wars. And that will destroy the liberty. You know, we can conquer the world and lose our freedom at home. What kind of farm policy is that? And again, we've been having this since the 1790s. And then finally, there's the group I call Jacksonian after Andrew Jackson, who sort of say, well, listen. And foreigners, they can be democratic. I don't really care what the foreigners do as long as you don't attack us or impune our honor.

26:35If somebody attacks us, we should just go ahead and crush them and laws of war. That just, you know, no, like rats, you should exterminate them and you beat them and pound them and crush them. And to lay understand that the last thing they should ever do is raise their hand against the United States. And Jacksonians often look like Jeffersonians, the isolationists in times of peace, but something happens like Pearl Harbor and 9-1-1. And suddenly the Jacksonians are activated. So I think we've been having these things for a very long time. We still have today. I say these are like, you know, suits in a deck of cards. And so very few of us have just like all 13 Hamiltonian cards. Right? We generally all have a mixed hand, but we tend to have some suits stronger than others for each of us. Are those suits, do you think most defines us today? Well, I think the old democratic consensus, let's say the Clinton consensus was very much a coalition of Wilson and Hamilton.

27:42And build a global system that advances the country's economic security, but also deals, you know, promotes human rights and democracy. And that will both make us rich and build a last and global peace. And so that's been kind of the predominant establishment idea really since World War II. And when I actually wrote special providence came out right around the time of 9-1-1. And people at that time weren't really aware that there was anything but Hamilton and Wilson. And then suddenly discovered, oh, wait a minute, there are these Jacksonians there who want a new Afghanistan or whatever came up after that. So I would say that Trump's coalition is a mix of Jefferson, Jeffersonians and Jacksonians, isolationists and hawks. You could say, Vance as the isolationist champion and in some ways and Rubio as the hawk.

28:42And Rubio is not interested in the United Nations or you know, look at in Venezuela, like let's get rid of our enemy Maduro. We're not going to make the restoration of democracy in Venezuela, the key of everything, which someone like an Obama I think, or a Biden would have tried much harder to do. So on Ukraine, you can see the Jeffersonians are saying, well, this is not really our fight. Let's stay out of it while the Jacksonians are saying Russia's the enemy. Let's not Putin in punching them in the nose while we can. So I think, yeah, we're they're all active today. And maybe say one word more about this notion of tech Hamiltonians as a key faction that's emerged. Typically tech in the government were at least in my career were kind of foreign different concepts. One of the biggest things that happened in America is modern American history is the mutual discovery of tech and government.

29:43I mean, in the 1990s, which was back in the old post end of history, end of nations, companies would say, oh, I'm not an American company. I'm a global company, right? And nowhere was that stronger than in the world of tech where Google has no boundaries. You know, the cyber world is completely different. All of that stuff is irrelevant to us. Washington, they don't even understand us. And we will just do what we do. Today, tech is actually the locus of international great power competition. And China's attempt to build a technosphere that can dominate the American technosphere is, you know, to American tech companies. This is really critical to your business, but also to the American state, American government. It's critical to power and independence. And they much, I think, to the surprise of both the tech world and the political world, they've been driven in on each other.

30:45And there's a kind of re-nationalization of tech and of the economy that we see. And the tech folks, and you may know better, certainly Jeremy understands them a lot better than I do. And the sense is that when the tech folks think about what are their economic interests, they're different from what you might call a legacy multinational. You know, the post-World War II that are basically global trading and manufacturing companies. I make cars from things I import from all over the world. I have factories all over the world that make cars. And these companies free trade is the essence of their business. I need financial markets. I need labor markets. And I need manufactured good markets that are seamless and open. As Tom Friedman put it, I need a flat earth. But if you're a tech company, you don't.

31:47You're not in Google is alphabet is not importing and exporting a lot of goods. Even something like immigration, which is if you're a hotel company or a construction company, having hard working cheap migrant labor is pretty important to your business model. If you're a Silicon Valley company and suddenly there's no more unskill labor crossing from from from Mexico, right, the cost of your janitorial and gardening services rises 30%. So what right you're much more concerned about security supply chain security of international pr of intellectual property. And I think increasingly companies are starting to realize that they need their employees to be patriotic. That is the your employees. All right. I couldn't hear a damn thing.

32:50I let me get myself back. I could not hear a damn thing. But so it goes with relearning how to avoid certain gremlins and it's going to take another couple of days, couple of shows probably. But let me play these ads. The thing I hope that you all got out of that piece. When we're talking about living in a world of competing confusions, you're talking about I am talking about the global war that is always happening between major nation states and the intelligence communities that engage in those wars. We can be so naive sometimes when we're having these discussions. And it's one of the things I try to say Mike Ben's, Colonel, towner, walkins, walkins, towner, or Jesus Christ. Why am I having anyway. Y'all know.

33:56We cannot walk down a street where it it's always CIA, CIA, CIA because you even if unintentionally you're communicating to your audience that you're dismissing these other intelligence communities that are doing battle on the battlefield. And this is what's always happening. Notice Donald Trump extended that national emergency thing on election interference. What the fuck do you think he's doing and why the fuck do you think he did that original order. There are a range of players on the battlefield engaged in this war against us. And Donald Trump is engaged in a multifaceted war. This isn't some simple binary bullshit. He's trying to take down an entire system and it ain't just no city of London shit.

35:00We have to understand the totality, the breadth of the problem. He is doing God's work, but it is an incredibly difficult. I'm wanting to play that Walter Russell me because look that Jeffersonian, that Hamiltonian you heard him talking about that. You can see some of this like JD Vance and Marco Rubio. Same team given certain roles because Donald Trump knows all of this. He knows all of this in his one particular genius because I think he's got levels of genius is how to hire people to get a job done. And the whole question is, are you loyal to me, motherfucker? Because I'm going to give you a certain role over here and I need you to do that role while being loyal to me. And if you see how he's dismissed people from the military. And you know, we can have a simplistic discussion about the military industrial complex, hush, hush, because it's far more varied than most people seem to understand.

36:10And it confuses the issue sometimes when you're just talking this. Dark or bad bullshit. No, no, no, dark is not bad. And wow, wow. Let me, let me do these ads and try and come back and interact with the chat. Yeah, we're obviously not going to do the cynical publiest and hey, I may never do the cynical publiest. I've given you the link. These smears are one active component of what's often planted by intelligence communities, a range of them. And we fall for it because we have these freedoms. And the bigger picture is the big play is our freedoms ultimately are our strength, even if it allows some of these players to come in with their dumb assery. Enough of us are eventually going to figure the shit out and make our way forward. And Donald Trump is proof of that to save the day. America always seems to pull in people who will save the day enough to allow us to continue to march.

37:28Okay. All right, let me see if I can get up here properly. And at least get some advertisements in. And I have a prep sheet and you know, I didn't have to do this now, but again, I'm old. So I think I have to put on the prep sheet a link in case I ever have a brain cramp again. Negro. Here's where you go to see the ads for today. Wow, wow, that's still. It's still amazing to me. Let's try. Oh, Lord, have mercy. Jesus. What the. This thing has reverted back to, oh, those are. Okay. I was about to really have a panic. Those were, I was about to try and put up an image and I need the ads. So let's see if I can get out of this loop by doing guard.

And so now I need to try and see what is going on with y'all in the chat since I've got maybe 15, 16 minutes left.

42:19And I need to clear. I need to clear my brain. Let's see. I don't want to try and turn and read on the other laptop. My feed. I'm on my full. And you know, my internet, I'm just worried that I'm going to start having spotty internet issues because I've noticed that while I'm just watching some streaming stuff here periodically. The internet just drops. And it's like it's been a long time since I've had that issue. But okay.

43:30Yes, I hear you. I hear you being kind, but I hate having technical issues. I hate having technical issues. So yeah, and I figured, okay, it's somehow with my laptop. I'm not going to obsess about it now. Everything was indicating the sound should be playing. So there's. There's some little check that is somehow overriding. And you know, periodically, I get rid of the problem and I forget. Okay, yeah, this is. Ellen or you having that too. And see, I've got Starlink, but I have not put it up here at the house. It's in in the house. I just haven't put it up. And it's like, wow, I'm going to have to put, but I've got so many trees around this house. I don't know that there's a good line of sight to get good accurate coverage from Starlink.

44:42But I have this T-Mobile that I carry around with me like when I go to guard or something, I bring that bad boy with me. Whenever I'm traveling, I bring it so that I can use my own system. I don't have to rely on the hotel or anything else. And in the past, whenever I've been here in Tallahassee and used that T-Mobile, never an issue, never an issue, constant stream. It's this crazy ass Comcast crap that we have where there would always be some issues. Well, now there are issues with T-Mobile. And I don't know what to say about that. And anyway, let me see what's popping in the chat. You're here for the year. Let me go back to this world of competing confusions. The Intel look look. I had a top secret clearance in the army. My final year, I was in an ASA unit.

45:46Okay, this is only East German border, Czechoslovak border. And we had all kinds of people who obviously were going to go on to Fort Mead. Some of them work in the NSA. What am I trying to say? We don't pay enough attention to these intelligence communities. And we don't know how to give DAP to the Russians. And some of us give way too fucking much DAP to the Russians. As if they don't have an intelligence community trying to work an anti-American narrative that Americans can simply accept as if this is merely a political position staking out ground.

46:47No motherfucker has been seated by the Russians and it's bullshit. The whole thing with the environmental movement. That's some Russian Chinese bullshit to deter Americans. Okay, and it's like people don't seem to get that. These women have been... I'm trying to phrase this. Such a way after driving from Dallas, he took Miami and back with my wife who's on the other side of the thing. And you know, I'm listening to a guy he's talking about the Gatorbait cheer being brought back to the University of Florida. Yet another indication to me of our return to normalcy of the country's collective voice saying to hell with all the stupid shit. We're not dealing with stupid shit anymore.

47:47And you know, my wife is just like, oh, it's not okay. I don't want to throw y'all into Republican Democrat from a black perspective issues while driving enclosed in a car. And I was like, oh man, I cannot... She can't listen to certain shit and I can't listen to certain shit. Put on some headphones, damn it. But it's just to me a beautiful thing is contemplation. And this rat clips trip to Russia to me is a... I wish we could maybe just have an hour and let y'all... Because I know kids go, I think, Diane, there are other people in here. Very sympathetic to the Russians. And for good reasons, you know, I am not going to sit up here and say you don't have reasons. But this multiplicity of invisible enemies as an American to me, you have to be really savvy.

48:56And so I wanted to play that Walter Russell me. He's not an old Foggy dumbass. He's a historian and probably center left if I had to guess. But it's an important perspective. These geopolitical positions that tend to repeat in American history. Donald Trump's a Jacksonian. You may remember I read a piece before I... Maybe the week that I stopped before summer break or the two weeks something. I read a piece and talking about Donald Trump is not a conservative or a liberal. He's a pragmatist. And that used to be far more prominent in American politics so that you had liberal Democrats and conservative Democrats. That's you had liberal Republicans and conservative Republicans. This war that's been played against us has changed all of that so that we essentially until we win this war.

50:02And Donald Trump has us right at the edge of winning. Then we can go back to normalcy in terms of politics so that we have two major political parties that have liberal centrist and conservative wings within them. That's the American way. And you know, I think we are getting back to that but we've got to first within this war. We have to win this war because China is playing for keeps. They hoard out so many and they've utilized the Russians. If you don't think they're working together, you... I don't want to be uncharitable. And I can be very uncharitable when it comes to the Russians and the Chinese. But I know we've got people in here. Hey, look, opinion leaders, thought leaders, I've told you. I consume a good bit of this Promethean stuff. Love. Most of what they do. But my God, they have a blind spot.

51:03Jesus. Do they have a blind spot? And same thing with Tom Luongo. I love what Florida boy does. Bob Maggadi has a blind spot. It seems to me. And this is part of what's playing out right now. This is part of what Donald Trump is dealing with. So you send Ratcliffe to Russia and people can't know what the real deal is. This is, again, part of the genius of Donald Trump. People can't know. And they hold that very close. And then they see bullshit out there just to see, okay, how are people responding to this and that? It's almost like, you know, I wanted to... Okay, God. Let me see. Let me see. I had loaded up an image because I had a link that I wanted to discuss. Let me see if I can bring up the white. Uh, no, that ain't it.

52:06Here is the white. Now, let me put up this 13. Yeah, and I can't read it. Damn it. I needed to print that out too. I should have known 13 strategic defeats. But people, I tell you, I just am stunned. How, how simplistically, if that's simplistically ignorant, um, people are being about this Iran war, Donald Trump, and the United States of America is kicking their mother fucking ass. No, if snow, and snow butts, it ain't even a close call. And their entire strategy, hang around like a fucking nap, so that they can play the political game that has periodically worked in the United States with the media and the public. You talk this stupid shit until people get tired. You know what, we're weary.

53:06We're weary of the Vietnam War. Even though we're kicking their mother fucking ass, we're weary. The Ted Offensive, we kicked their ass, but hey, we're gonna have Walter Crunk. I tell you something different, and you give the fuck up. Oh my God. Donald Trump ain't playing that game. He's hip to all of that bullshit. All of it. And he doesn't give a damn, and neither does Scott Besson. We might have to, I might have to do a total show on just how much of a warrior that Mohu is. And he ain't shucking in jiving. But what they've done, I halfway think the Trump administration is the one who ceded this sovereign alliance, that's bullshit, America, Russia, China. Halfway thing, they ceded that bullshit, because they knew there are certain tendencies that people have, and we could use that to our advantage while we are resetting the globe. People ain't got to know, this is one of my things that just drives me crazy.

54:09You can see online sometimes somebody takes a position and as if, when are they gonna be prosecution? Are you gonna arrest somebody? Shut the fuck up. It just, in the first Trump administration, I went off on this, like, tell me you don't know shit about complex prosecutions. Without saying explicitly, I don't know shit about complex prosecutions. You don't just go fucking arrest somebody. That's what your fucking adversary wants you to do, because you fuck up the case, motherfucker. Let them cook. Let them take their time. They positioned everybody. Seems to me, they positioned everybody to whoop that ass. And that little thing about the extension, August 31st, the extension of the national emergency, they know they're going to win the midterms or something is going to happen that allows them

55:09to maintain control through the midterms. And they, in the first Trump administration, put people in position to make them accountable. Chris Krebs, and this damn most secure election ever, that motherfucker is trapped by what the fuck he's done and with on the record. Ain't no wiggle room for him to get out, okay? They've trapped people like that. And so they are getting ready to let the dominoes roll, but you know, you got to not be stupid, because Donald Trump is playing the long game. He is playing it beautifully. And I tell you the truth, is Scott Besson, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, an executioner. He is this dumbass game, the Iranians have played, and you know, look, okay, I've said, I mean, I'll be making sense to y'all.

56:11I mean, I'm gonna meet the insi some stuff extremely clearly, but it just ain't broad enough. And it just ain't from enough of, in my estimation, a total American point of view in position. Notice how they brag on Hamilton, you know, the Hamiltonian, the American system. You have to understand, it's not an all or nothing with these four different positions like American foreign policy, et cetera, okay? There are pieces. That's why Rubio is so damn good. That's why advanced is so damn good. We're covering the 180 degrees of that spectrum that needs to be covered. That's the beauty of what Donald Trump's team is doing. Why we're maneuvering on the down low, and setting everything up. Oh my goodness, I just, I don't know why people have such a hard time seeing this. Or the, or the, or the, the, the, the, the, the,

57:13the Megan, McCain, Kelly, Tucker Carlson, what the hell is going on? I don't know, man. But it's a 51-49 situation in many places. And so, do we or do we not have competent professionals in place? To me, that's the major question. Okay? In the first Trump administration, there were all kinds of people who clearly were part of these invisible enemies, trying to come up with Donald Trump was doing, and he knew there would be these people. We didn't know that. I certainly didn't know the extent of it. I would have said, I just had no idea. Shit was that bad. I had no idea. But it was that bad. And so, they had to have at minimum a 12-year plan, at minimum. And we're in that, what, 10th year, getting into the 11th year of that plan.

58:13And I think even beyond that, again, he set up a team where easily, JD Vance and Marco Rubio, who are friends, can have an administration and go kick ass and take names. We have such an incredible technological lead. All of this stuff works in America's favor. And so, I invite you to go watch that Walter Russell meet peace. It seems like this global order is collapsing in America, is getting stronger because this is the American century, the 21st century. This is ours. And we have an unassailable technological lead, and you need to understand that. And the only way we get screwed up is if we let these dumbasses do what they've done historically, through the media, through these horde out politicians, all we've got to do is rock and roll with Donald Trump. That's all we got to do. Sit down, shut the fuck up, let the president handle his business, and support him.

59:13Period. Okay. With that gang, I got to shut this thing down and try and figure some stuff out by Friday. I hope y'all appreciated my attempt to get to the end. And attempt to get back in the groove and have some conversations with you because, yeah, all I want to do is think football, watch football, and enjoy this phase of my life. But we've got to win this motherfucking war. We have to win this motherfucking war. All right. With that gang, I am going to say, see you later alligator, and check me out again on Friday. We will get after it. I promise you, hopefully, with a clean broadcast. Later, gators. Thank you so much for joining us, and don't forget to hit the thumbs up on this video.
