What this episode covers

00:00 Good afternoon, always a privilege sitting in for Charlie. Hey, listen guys, I have a new podcast out that you can find on the Odyssey app or anywhere you get podcasts. It's called Vegas Crime Files. It's all about crimes that have happened in the crazy city of Vegas. And the next edition's coming out this week and it's about the October 1 shooting where 60 people were shot in a mass shooting in Vegas. Talk to a couple of the detectives so you don't wanna miss that. Anyway, check it out, Vegas Crime Files, wherever you get podcasts. 00:25 We are talking about what's going on in the Middle East and the fact that we are not winning the war over there. And I think that once again, Trump voter three times. So don't give me this nonsense. You hate Trump. It's not true. Voter form three times, but we're not winning this war. And it's because I believe Trump doesn't understand who we're fighting. I believe that we have the best military in the entire world. Nobody doubts that. And nobody doubts that we can blow them back to the stone age. Yes, we can. But when you're dealing with an enemy who doesn't care and will crawl back out of the hole, 00:55 come at you in their pajamas, you got problems. And I don't think Trump gets it. 800-905-0989, SWORD Talk Live, where we find Christina in Travelers Rest, a very pretty place. How are you, Christina? 01:12 I'm you're substituting for Charlie. And you are a very knowledgeable and educated individual about the psyche of the Islamic shi'atist. And I'm so glad to hear you say that. I wish somehow you could channel Trump. I love Trump to death, but you are absolutely, you're absolutely right. 01:41 and i've said this i've said to charlie i'd wish i'd i'd could give the recommendation to to clark to to marco rubio to witkoff to remember to number one reed the coran and number two reed after the guy in in new york city through the bombs and the new york uh pd interviewed him 02:11 and uh... he said and they'd be said that the comp comp on a tree at the time with uh... training for prices is what we do he had it's what we do we kill the infidel so i'd said they need to listen to that audio and also 02:40 They need to read the book by Brian Kilmeade, Thomas Jefferson, and the Tripoli Pirates, because it goes back to the time. Oh, back. Well, it goes back farther than that, but it goes back. Yeah, that's the reason we modernized our Navy, was to fight the Barbary Pirates, they called them then. So, well, they just like, with the oil blockade, Iran figured out, oh, wow, we've got a gold mine. 03:09 india's charging toll straight up what do it like back in the time of thomas jefferson when they were paying in the mediterranean they were paying up protection money and they would supposedly entering to the treaty that they wouldn't back and feel the cardinals 03:37 and they thought they were entering into treaty and they did it anyway.
