Trump trumps the world: Islamists and globalists struggle to fight back

In this political Coliseum, we slay the rising beast with the fateful sword of truth that

transcends hypocrisy and censorship.

It's time to unleash yourself from the tyrants of media propaganda on the America out loud

talk radio network.

This is Unleashed, the political news hour.

Welcome to Unleashed, the political news hour. I'm your host, Bruce Robertson.

What a week folks. It's another action packed week and there's so many exciting things going

on the world. I can barely contain myself. But before we get started, I'd like to share

something with you as we start off this program. This is something that I found intriguing.

I saw this on the news in the last couple of days and it was about a liberal kid who got

schooled on CNN. You know, you probably have been seeing it out there. Apparently the

Democrats suddenly hate the higher gas prices that they themselves demanded for years before

Trump got elected. So there was a 23 year old commentator named Adam Mockler. He's on

the Midas Touch program and he kind of rolled on to CNN's News Night one night just recently

thinking that he had a killer attack line for President Trump and the rise of gas prices

amidst the recent Iran conflict. So he said he predicted a big blue wave in the midterms

blaming the pain at the pumps on Republicans while playing the Everyman card about spotting

sticker shock at the gas stations on his drive to the airport. Okay, you follow me. He saw

higher gas prices driving to the airport and he thought he'd tag Trump with that. You know,

he said this is going to be a big blue wave. And he said it was already going to be, it

was already going to be before the war in Iran. And this is the most, this is the most

like visceral change that we've seen so far. He said when I drove to the airport today,

I'm quoting him now when I drove to the airport today, I passed by two gas stations and I was

paying attention. American families are paying attention to this. So on the show was Republican

strategist Scott Jennings old enough to remember actual democratic policies instead of just

some scripted outrage by, you know, a young guy. And Scott Jennings wasn't having it at all.

He dropped a hammer on him with some cold truths. Jennings said I'm old enough to remember

when Democrats were advocating for higher gas prices to bring about the end of the internal

combustion engine. Now all of a sudden gas prices are a big deal. And mockler, this young guy got

clearly caught off guard and he started to stammer. He's like, wait, wait, which Democrats said

they wanted higher gas prices. And Jennings didn't miss a beat. He said literally all of them.

And mockler doubled down and disbelief. He said, they said I want higher gas prices.

And Jennings closed the trap on him. He said, yes, that was the stated policy to drive gas

prices up to get rid of the internal combustion engine. Well, boom, schools in session, young man.

This isn't some gacha coming out of thin air. Democrats have spent years pushing green mandates

and electronic vehicle electric vehicle timelines and carbon schemes explicitly designed

to make gasoline far more expensive. So Americans could ditch reliable trucks and cars

for their favorite electric, their favorite electric, electric toys. Obama mused that higher gas

prices would nudge the country toward clean energy. Biden's team locked in the 2035 combustion

engine phase out while regulators were piling on taxes and restrictions that jacked up the cost

at the pumps. So now that global events are spiking prices and voters are feeling the squeeze

the same crowd is crying crocodile tears and blaming Trump.

American families aren't stupid folks. They remember the $5 a gallon plus prices under Joe Biden.

They remember the endless lectures about saving the planet by paying more and the smug elite

people in their Tesla is telling everybody else to suck it up. Suddenly the pain at the pump

is Trump's fault. Come on. Scott Jennings exposed the hypocrisy in real time. Democrats wanted

expensive gas as a feature, not a bug of our future economy. That is until it became a political

liability to them. The liberal kid learned a hard lesson on live TV. He got spanked and policy,

of course, is is it has consequences, right? So he learned that lesson policy has consequences

and that memory lasts far longer than silly sound bites and that voters can see through the flip

flop. That's right. High gas prices were supposed to be the noble sacrifice for the climate

cold zombies. Now that regular people are paying for it. The left wants to pretend they never

asked for it. Nice try. The American people are paying attention. They're not buying the rewrite

of history. So I want to share something else with you, ladies and gentlemen. I've uncovered

something that I think is absolutely insane about internet media and it's likely why the

Democrat party still has supporters. You know, most people now today you either have, you know,

the two most popular phones out there are Apple iPhones and Google phones, you know, the Android

phone. So most people now get their news from Google and Apple, you know, even Samsung runs on

an Android platform. So a company called Media Research Investigation has done a survey and they

found that only 2% of Google's top-morning articles. Now people pick up their phone in the morning

and they look at the news on their phone. Nobody watches TV anymore, hardly anybody, unless you're

over 70. Only 2% of Google's top-morning articles were from any right-leaning news site.

Just 2%, 98% were from left-leaning news sites. The vast majority of the rest all left-leaning

outlets. So 2% versus 98% sounds like fair and balanced to me. Not quite. I've been noticing. I

personally have been noticing a disturbing trend in network and internet media and newspaper media

and magazine media for quite a long time and maybe you have too. Network biases are real

and I've been very sensitive to it and I've been keeping an eye on it and I've been keeping sort

of a mental note of it. So, you know, we find it now in Hollywood movies. We find it sneaking into

Netflix series. We find it in mainstream network news and of course we find it in the yellow journalist

newspapers and periodicals like the New York Probda. Apple has been a tremendous success worldwide.

As everybody knows, if you own the stock, you've done very, very well and Google with their

Android phones, they have done very, very well. And again, if you own the stock, you've done

very, very, very well as well. So, a majority of people around the world who have cell phones

now have Apple phones and computers and or they have Google phones and they use Google.

So, that means that a lot of people spend their time glued to either an Apple screen or a Google

screen of some sort for most of their day. Now, a while ago I noticed that Apple news went

three straight months without featuring a single article from a single conservative news outlet

in its top stories. And now they can hold Google's beer because, you know, I see, you know,

I use Google mail like everybody else I guess and I'm not, I'm not pitching Google. In fact,

I'm probably going to get off it. But Google delivers news to the world too. And if you have Google,

you know what I mean. On your screen, when you open up Google, you see when you open up your

browser, if Google is your browser, you'll see Google news. Either that or you have Microsoft

network, MSN. That's another liberal news feed. So, Google delivers news to the world and I've

noticed this trend on Google as I have on MSN, as I have on Bing, which is Microsoft, as I have on

Apple news. And I've dialed back really my use of Google in favor of some other search engines

and also alternative search engines and artificial intelligence now. Okay. So,

by the way, did I mention that if you don't have an Apple phone, you likely have a Google phone

delivering your news or when you open up your laptop, any kind of laptop, you know, if it's a

PC, you probably have MSN news or you have Bing from Microsoft. And if you have an Apple computer,

you have Apple news. And if you have Google up on your screen, you have Google news. So,

these are the people that control your news feed. And it's no better if you turn on the

intelligence that, by the way, even Fox News is biased. So, only 2% of Google's top morning

articles, Google now, not just Apple, not just MSN, not just Bing, only 2% of Google's top morning

articles in the month of February were from a right-leaning news site. The vast majority of the rest

of the news that you see on your computer or your phone was all from left-wing outlets. So,

the Media Research Center used the nonpartisan firm called All Sides, which ranks news outlets

based on the political slant of the 487 articles that Google featured in their top morning stories

in February and found that only 11 of 487 stories were from right-leaning sources.

Now, let that sink in. In fact, Google News featured zero articles from any right-leaning news outlets

over a period of 17 days during the month of February. Now, this is one of the most widely

used news apps in the entire world with over 280 million users generating more than 24 billion

clicks per month. So, when they overwhelmingly push left-wing views that ignore any conservative

counterpoint, they're skewing public opinion. They're picking and choosing what information people

consume and what they never get to see and they're doing it on purpose. And this is propaganda,

folks. So, the next time you wonder why so many people seem to be so whacked out and stone drunk

on the left-wing Kool-Aid, this is why. And now, we're going to jump off for a break and we'll be

right back with, unleashed, the political news hour. Stay with us.

Bruce Robertson. Before we left for the break, I was talking about the propaganda in almost every

news feed that we have as consumers. In all our phones, in all our television media,

almost all of it, in all our movies, all our newspapers, all our periodicals, they're all marching,

they all belong to the same five or six media companies. And so, you know, where are you going

to get your news from? Well, I get some news from X. Now, believe it or not, I get some news from

Telegram. I get news from alternative sources because I can't trust the mainstream corporate media.

And so, now I'd like to jump on to the big story, okay? I'm starting to connect some dots,

ladies and gentlemen. And this story is bigger than most people might realize. So,

Qatar's liquid natural gas facility just got hit. Now, that's one of the biggest

gas suppliers on earth, okay? And at the same time, now this is going on, the United States

is already the number one exporter of liquid natural gas. We do 15 BCF per day,

right around 15 BCF, that's billions, by the way, and 10 to 11 million barrels a day of oil,

okay? We're the number one exporter of petroleum. So, now, layer this on top, we're opening the

doors back up with Venezuela, okay? Follow me here, okay? Stay with me on the numbers. We're

opening the doors back up with Venezuela. Currently, 800,000 barrels a day, something like that

in Venezuela, but we're sitting on some of the largest oil reserves in the world,

and some of the largest liquid natural gas reserves. So, what's really happening? Global supply

gets disrupted. Qatar gets hit. You know, Carg Island got bombed a little bit by Israel,

and until Trump told them to stop. And prices go up. The US steps in as the dominant supplier

of oil and gas. And now, we're also positioning our backup supply through Venezuela, which Donald

Trump conveniently took out the leader of Venezuela before moving across the pond to take care

of things in the Middle East. This is not random, folks. None of this is random. It's strategy.

This is global energy chess, and I use the analogy of chess all the time with Donald Trump.

Global energy chess playing out in real time while his opponents think he's a dumb dumb.

This guy is no dumb dumb. If you understand energy, you understand where money, power, and

influence are going next. Most people are just watching headline news. They can't even pay attention

for more than 30 seconds. But the smart ones are watching the chess moves behind the headlines.

Iran's Hormuz trap has backfired spectacularly on our American hating allies.

And so, Iran thought that blocking the streets of Hormuz, the street of Hormuz would spike US oil

prices. It would crush American workers and force President Trump to back down.

Well, the plan was classic Tehran. Weaponized the global energy and kneecap the West.

We've seen that playbook before. Well, did prices go up? Yeah, gasoline prices went up. They

went up. Oil prices went over $100 a barrel. Maybe they had $105. Now they're back down again.

But gasoline prices are staying up a little bit, feeding. I mean, you know, I think I paid

something like $4.11 or $4.22 for premium gas the other day. All right, it's costing a little more.

But this plan to kneecap the West has exploded in their faces. The American refineries

are ramping up output on abundant domestic light sweet crude that never touches the

street of Hormuz. And that keeps US prices steady around $100 a barrel. So we can function

at $100 a barrel. Now, Asia, what about Asia? Asia is getting hammered at $150 a barrel or more.

China, India, Japan, South Korea. The very nations, mostly that snubbed Trump's call for

naval help originally now face crippling shortages. China's imports through the

strait of Hormuz have plunged 77 percent. Their oil reserves will last just 108 days. And

they're scrambling to buy premium non-Middle East oil at a massive markup.

Schools are shutting down across Southeast Asia. Workers are being sent home. Gas pumps are

sitting dry. Now, this isn't just market chaos. I'd call it poetic justice. NATO allies

dismiss it as not our war. Japan declined initially to participate. And now, of course, the Japanese

Prime Minister is running up the Trump and giving him a hug. Australia declined.

Even as Iran selectively lets non-US ships pass while choking everyone else off,

the so-called partners who lectured America on global responsibility are learning the hard way

what real vulnerability looks like. And Trump warned them, you know, he asked for support

to open the strait and to secure the flow. They refused originally anyway. Now we're getting,

I think, 22 members are saying that they'll help out. You know, nothing like closing the barn door

after the horses have already run away. But they refused initially. So now, the blockade that

they ignored is punishing them the hardest. While American energy independence is shining

through stronger prices and stronger production and more refineries, we're stronger than ever.

So while the global order is fracturing exactly as our free-riding allies deserve,

you know, now maybe it's the time for Trump to tie Ukrainian aid and other US commitments

to real reciprocity in the strait of war moves. No more one-way street, America first means holding

the line and letting the freeloaders feel the pain that they helped create because they set all

this stuff up. And just like that, after what was no doubt a careful consideration, and I was

hinting at this a little earlier, what was no doubt careful consideration of the corner

that Trump painted them into. A number of NATO allies and others finally

agreed to join the US with some military force and help to police the strait of war moves.

You know, folks, the media is lying to you about Iran. Two weeks in, Iran has no navy,

no air force, no functional missile defense. Now we're in our third week, I think.

No functional missile defense, no command to control, and the media is telling us, we're losing.

Okay, Iranian drone and missile output to the Gulf states and Israel is down 90%.

The Republican Guard is under sustained and constant assault. The regime is in shambles.

We've already taken out a couple Iatolas, and if they put it more, we'll take them out too.

And the only western outlets that Iran lets inside its borders are CNN, and they're operating

under conditions that the shreds of remaining former theocracy has set. Now that's not journalism,

folks. That's like getting a state press pass in a totalitarian dictatorship. Now compare the

math. By the way, they're showing fake videos. They were showing videos there that our ships

are sinking and our planes are being shot down. I mean, they make all that stuff up with AI now.

Compare the math. The first Gulf war took 42 days. It cost 300 American lives and left

Saddam Hussein in power. We've been at this two weeks. They finally got Saddam Hussein, by the way,

but it took longer. We've been at this two weeks. We lost roughly a dozen people. Maybe more now,

maybe a few more. It could be as high as 30. And the far more dangerous Iranian war machine,

the Iraq wasn't really not much to behold. They're functionally destroyed. Now that's not a

quagmire. That's not like we're stuck in Iraq and we can't get out. We're stuck in Iran and we

can't get out. I'm sorry. That's one of the most lopsided opening campaigns in modern military

history. So why does the coverage on the media feel like a disaster narrative? Do you remember what

they said about the corporate mainstream media before in the propaganda? I mean, it's putrid.

And that's because the Democrat Party and the mainstream corporate media has a direct political

interest in you believing that we're losing. The midterms are eight months out, folks. If they can

manufacture a quagmire narrative, if they can flip Congress in the midterms, I mean, the squad

is literally protesting in the streets with their minions on behalf of Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas.

I mean, which party in America supports the terrorists more? I think it's a pretty easy answer.

This isn't fringe anymore. This is the base of the Democrat Party. Seven consecutive

presidents from both parties have said consistently over the years, over the decade. Since the late 70s,

they said Iran would never get a nuclear weapon on their watch. None of them did a damn thing

about it. Trump is doing the thing. He's doing the thing that none of these other leaders had

the gall of the stones to do. Trump is stopping them from gaining a nuclear weapon on his watch.

And that's why the left and their lap dogs in the mainstream media hate him.

The regime will fall. The Iranian regime will fall. Or they'll cut a deal. Or they'll limp forward

for a little while with their military gutted. Okay. Every one of these outcomes is far better

than the world we were living in three weeks ago. When Iran had 3,000 missiles and active nuclear

program and was threatening to close the strait of war booths on a whim and bomb Israel and all

their neighbors. Okay. Don't let the lying change the math here. Because their math on the left,

it ain't mathin. And now some more news. This is breaking under intense pressure from President

Trump. Six key American allies have now pledged their support to help secure the vital strait of

war booths shipping lanes. Now, we've seen others kind of try and pile on, you know, but there's

six key members now. That's a complete 180 degrees from what they were saying just days ago.

The countries that are stepping up are Japan, Britain, France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.

So there's no more free ride on American security if you're a NATO member. Let's just put it that

way. And President Trump wins again. So we've seen right now ABC, CNN, CBS, Washington Post,

New York Slimes, a hundred percent negative stories on the Iran War, a hundred percent negative

spin. And people are marching in the streets basically in support of Hamas and Hezbollah.

You know, the raping of nine-year-old girls and the forced beatings of them and the murders of

women who won't wear a headscarf, etc. Now, also the terrorism in the world, bombing school buses

and all this kind of stuff, hiding behind hospitals. That's what they do. So why? Aren't they hoping

that we win with the least amount of casualties in the shortest time? Aren't they on America's side?

Or do they want a bloody war so they can smear Trump with it? No, they don't. They're not on our side.

They would rather have more casualties, setbacks, failed missions and losses because they hate Donald

Trump more than they love the United States of America. They are sick people and they're evil.

There, I said it. What they don't seem to get is that this is all about America's business,

the business of America is business. What they don't get is that this is all about trade.

The golden age of America is closer than people think. We're watching things line up in real time

with trade and shipping routes and strategic positioning, whether people fully realize it or not.

Right now, it might feel scattered, a little scary, unclear. That's mostly because the mainstream

media is trying to pump us up with fear porn. But it's not random, folks. It's not random.

There's a bigger picture forming here and soon it's going to start making a lot more sense.

So I'd say buckle up and pay attention because whatever Trump's master plan is,

it revolves around global trade. He's securing global maritime shipping routes,

especially strategic choke points in the world like the Panama Canal and the Strait of Hormuz.

He's probably going to tighten up the Sinai, the Suez Canal, and some of these other major trade

routes, the northern routes, because we can't have interruptions to our supply chain for any

product, especially oil. He's got the Arctic shipping routes, Greenland, Canada. He wants to

lock all that stuff down. People said he was crazy to go after Greenland and Canada.

Guess what? That northern shipping is very important. Now, combine that with tariffs?

Come on. It's all about trade. It's all about trade. It's all about trade dominance and control,

and assuring for us that the business of America stays open because the business of America is

business. The city of London globalists, on the other hand,

expected that the cancellation of war risk insurance by the empire's oldest insurance company

would bring shipping to a halt. It would spike oil prices and shatter economies.

Well, that didn't happen at all. Ladies and gentlemen, I want to talk about your health for a minute.

We have here on our channel, on Unleashed, our sponsors, AmericaOutloud.shop.

If you go there, AmericaOutloud.shop. If you go to our shopping site, we have so many great

who was a nurse. She's a nurse, and she was forced to be coerced to be vaccinated with the COVID

jab. She was saying to me that she was scared because they made her get these shots in order to keep

her job, and now she's having some medical infirmities. She's not feeling well all the time,

and she thinks it might be the jab. If people have gotten the shot for one reason or another,

they didn't know any better, or they got talked into it, or they had to get a further job,

or firemen, or nurses, or policemen, and so forth. There's a way that you can clean out

your system and probably mitigate some of the ill side effects of the vaccine. One of them

is spike support by the wellness company, and we promote that product because it's a very good

product. Dr. McCullough, who's one of our colleagues here on the show, has endorsed that product.

It's really a great product. I carried in my closet, in my medicine chest, and the spike

support formula can really mitigate some of the problems with your health that may be related

to spike proteins from the gene experiment that they forced on much of the nation.

I hope you enjoyed those words from our sponsors. We really have great sponsors here folks.

Try our products. They're really great. They're not ours. They're our sponsors products. But I

use them and I love them. The City of London. I was talking about the City of London and most

people don't realize the City of London has had a global stranglehold on a lot of things. First of

all, all the offshore banking, the money laundering, the drug cartels, all the money that goes

through, all the trafficking. They turn their shoulder to the criminal activities and they're

happy to profit off of that stuff. And they also had a stranglehold on Persian oil for a long time.

That's Iranian oil. And that's because London really got a they were the first ones to discover

oil in Persia. They cut a sweetheart deal with Persia and they have absconded with most of the

profits on Iranian oil for a long time. And that's under the British Persian petroleum company

or oil company. And then it became BP, British petroleum. And that was mostly owned by the British

government for a long time, just like the BBC was mostly owned by the British government.

So these the government and these the royal family and all these people are all involved in

this stuff. And the City of London globalists, you know, they expected that I think they expected

that the cancellation of war risk insurance on tankers going through the Strait of Hormuz

by the Empire's oldest insurance company, Lloyds of London, London would bring shipping to a halt

and spike oil prices and shatter economies. Now, this was supposed to be economically and

politically disastrous for President Trump. And they were trying to get the Iran plan to backfire

against him. But the president himself was ready. He moved on three fronts simultaneously. And

Lloyds of London and the London cabal never recovered. And now they're kind of floundering and

they're trying desperately to try and remain viable in the conflict. So first, Trump announced that

the development finance corporation would step in, that's US-based, would step in with political

risk insurance. And he named a number. He said $20 billion that should cover the tankers for a

period of time. And it will. You know, since Lloyds pulled coverage, Washington replaced it within

days. Problem solved. Second, Donald Trump announced that the Navy was unnoticed to protect shipping

in the Strait as needed. And third, and this is the move that tells you everything about how

differently this president thinks, ladies and gentlemen. Trump lifted some sanctions on Russian oil

to ease tension in the oil market. Like, you know, India could get some Russian oil and fill up

their reserves and so forth. And some of these bigger nations would not have such a tightness and

problem. And not only that, Trump also used the opportunity to get on the phone with President

Putin to discuss the conflict in Iran and keep them on the same page.

So let's put all of this in context. Just last week, Donald Trump branded Great Britain as our

former closest ally, former closest ally, his words, not mine. That's the same Great Britain,

which has led the charge to sanction Russia and keep the Ukraine war going in perpetuity.

That's the same Britain, which is home to Lloyds of London, which just tried to strangle the world

oil supply rather than help us out. That's the same Britain that, you know, Trump calls our

former ally. So instead, what did Trump do? He turns to Russia to get oil flowing and cordially

chats up Putin on the phone for an hour. And I got to tell you, I don't think that was on

Carmers and Great Britain's, a Starmer rather, Starmers and Great Britain's Bingo card.

I don't think that was on their Bingo card, folks. And now, here's something else you probably

didn't see coming, especially if you've been drinking the mainstream media, you know, Israel runs

Trump kind of cool aid that the left keeps barking out, you know, the Israel hating left,

saying Israel's running Trump and Trump is not in control, Israel's in control, Netanyahu runs

Trump, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. The other day, Axios News Network carried a headline saying

that Trump is firmly asking Israel to halt strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure. You know,

they got a little carried away and they bombed some facilities. And, you know, I think a long

carg island. Now, we were wiping out military installations, but we were keeping the oil infrastructure

intact as much as we could, but Israel decided they were going to bomb some oil infrastructure as

well. So Trump is like, no, no, no, I'm running this thing and you guys don't get to do that anymore.

And Axios reported that Trump had three reasons for this. There's only three possible reasons

for this. Number one, to protect Gulf energy stability, okay, to avoid price spikes as much as

possible, even though there's a war in the region or an military activity in the region,

which spikes prices enough, okay. And also to preserve Iran's oil sector for post-war

cooperation with their newfound American allies. And mostly, I think that's kind of that's really

what the story behind the story is there. So this is the same or similar approach, very much the same

actually that President Trump used with Venezuela, just not even, you know, not very long go at all

when he deposed Maduro. Trump isn't protecting the regime that's in place or even trying to

change the regime himself. And he's not doing Israel's bidding at all apparently because he's

telling Israel to back off and they don't like it, right? They want to wipe Iran off the map just

like Iran wanted to wipe Israel off the map. Now, Trump's planning for what comes after this

and it doesn't conform to Israel's agenda. So think about what that means. Israel doesn't have a

blank check in the region. The Gulf states are being protected, right? Even though, you know,

Iran initially shot some missiles into, you know, some of the Gulf states and they didn't like it

very much. And you know, Iran, the Iran, you know, the remaining shreds of government better watch out

because if all the Gulf states gang up against them with all the F-35s that we've given them,

they're going to have hard time. And the great pilots too, especially the Saudi pilots, they're

great. We trained them. Anyway, the Gulf states are being protected. Iranian oil is being now

preserved for the Iranian people as much as possible after the Ayatollah regime is removed and the

IRGC, the Republican Guard are either removed or absorbed into the mainstream of a democratic Iran.

And, you know, so this is not a neocon war plan as we saw with some of the other presidents named

Bush mostly and Clinton and even Obama. This is a president managing the end game according to

Sun Su's Art of War. And I don't know if you've read that book, but I have and I know President

Donald Trump has because Donald Trump modeled his Art of the Deal after Sun Su's Art of War.

Did you know that? Anyway, his Art of War and the Art of the Deal are being used simultaneously

by Donald Trump. That's my hypothesis. And it's all being done while the bombs are still falling.

And, you know, here's another page from the neocon playbook that Trump is tossing into the wood

and that's the page about how Trump's Iranian moves are aimed solely at China. Now, initially I

thought so too. I thought maybe he was trying to choke off China. But, you know, I think it's more of

a diplomacy thing now that I look at it. I mean, we're in a very good position. But, you know,

this is kind of very unfair to the parts of the world like China that needs this, that needs oil

to stay alive. And, you know, there's a billion, what do they have? Two billion people now,

something like that. I mean, it's crazy. So, we don't want all those people to starve. We don't

have bad relations with China. I mean, we got to smack them once in a while with some tariffs and

things like that to let them know we mean business and let them know who's the boss in the world,

okay? But, I mean, we're doing this with the other parts of the world, including countries like

China, and they get a lot of their oil through the Strait of Hormuz. So, we're doing this not only

to exercise control, but we're doing it to show that we can help them if they play ball with us.

We have a very good relationship. It's leverage though. With President Xi and China,

and that's been going on now over there for some time and doing since Trump's first administration.

He had very good relations with President Xi. And, you know, Trump is showing the world,

including China, that we're protecting the world from what these lunatics are trying to do

in the Middle East, these Iranian mullahs and, you know, the Ayatollas. And we're doing so very

swiftly and successfully. So, let's line it all up for a second. First of all, Trump called

Lloyds of London's bluff and called Britain our former ally. That's a smack. And then he eases

sanctions on Russian oil and he calls up Putin and he says he's doing it for China and the rest

of the world, okay? And then, you know, then you got to look at it. You got to say, gee, don't

wonder. Heads are exploding in all of the think tanks in London and Washington, right? I mean,

this is the real story behind the surface story. This is not the missile strikes alone or the

carrier movements or the bombings or the panic, fear porn market headlines that are being brought

to you, you know, courtesy of the propaganda corporate news networks. But this is the strategic

landscape that's being recasted, remade in real time. And this is what unleashed the political

And we have all kinds of shows. We have nurses out loud. We have, you know, we have many,

many topics that are interesting to you. So, on a different topic, let's talk for a moment

about the war on poverty. Since we talked about the war against Islamism, against the war,

you know, we've got a war against socialism and communism in the world. So, let's talk about

the war on poverty because they have something to do with each other. As I like to call the war

on poverty, I call it the air conditioned gutter, which has become a comfortable grave really

for the working class and professional welfare kings and queens. Yeah, I'm not going to

mention any words about it. Okay. This week, New York billionaire Katsumatides has slammed

Kathy Hoechul's desperate plea that wealthy residents return to New York to fund her failed

liberal policies. That's right. New York Governor Kathy Hoechul recently begged wealthy residents

who fled to low-tech states like florida and texas to come back. This is after she told them,

we're not going to miss you. Take the next bus. Get out of here. You don't belong here. Okay.

Just maybe two weeks later or a week later, she said, please come back because so many people left.

So, now she's begging them to come back and she's admitting that the state's tax base has begun

until we rode and she needs their money to sustain her state's generous give-outs and social programs.

Well, billionaire John Katsumatides, he's also got a radio program. He's Greek like me. I mean,

he knows we've met each other. I know his daughter a little bit. Katsumatides is a New Yorker.

He's Greek by heritage, but he's a New Yorker and he's a very proud New Yorker.

And he's owned Mercedes supermarkets and a bunch of other things. He's a billionaire.

He has appeared recently on Fox News to torch the idea of going back to New York and he's declaring

the exodus permanent. And he's warning that these punishing tax hikes from Mamdani and Cathy

Hocho, including a radical proposal to slash the estate tax exemption from over $7 million to just

$750,000, which means they start taxing you on every dollar over $750,000 if you die with more than

that amount of money. And there's a lot of New Yorkers that are pretty sensitive to that.

And he's saying that this will only drive more people away. And even middle class people,

if you will, upper middle class people, not just billionaires. So nobody that's gone down to Florida,

Katsumatides said, is coming back. People that went to Florida, he said, the ones that went to

Texas, they're not coming back. He was very blunt about it. And he mocked Governor Hocho's logic.

And he, you know, he made fun of her. He said, we just want you to come back so you can fund

our far left policies in the state. What do Katsumatides say? Won't happen.

John Katsumatides, eligible for a state taxes himself, pointed out the personal stake in the matter.

He said, I'm eligible for a state tax. A big one. My kids will hate me if I don't move to Florida.

And now you know the rest of the story. I'm Bruce Robertson.
