Where is the Country headed?

0:00 Speaker 1 What is today is the former Speaker of the House, New Gingridge, one smart guy, one religious guy, a historian, knows a little bit about everything, and who better to have on a Sunday morning than Newt Gingridge. Uh, mister Speaker, So many things are going on in our country, but I’m going to ask you last week or I’m losing track,

0:24 was Easter. There’s an attack on religion all over our country. And Callista, your wife was the ambassador to the Vatican. You’re very religious, So let’s bring up that question first.

0:43 Speaker 2 Well, okay, I think the striking thing least speak with these two Sunday was that nobody in the Biden White House figured out that it was the worst possible day to issue a trench gender proclamation. You know, the for virtually everybody who’s Christian, Easter is the most important day of the year. It’s a day when He has risen

1:14 and it’s a very solemn celebration all over the world. And for the Biden White House, either out of sloppiness or incompetence, to issue a resolution honoring transgenderism on Easter was just a remarkable assault. But it’s typically what’s going on.

1:34 It’s like the FBI actually opening a file based on the idea that if you are a Catholic who goes to Latin mass you could be a dangerous subversive. It’s typical of overseeing across the whole system where to be actively religious, whether you’re Jewish or or you’re Christian, is totally unacceptable. It’s acceptable elite if you’re Muslim, because in

2:00 a sense among the elite, Muslim is a protected class, but it is totally unacceptable to be a devout Christian or a devout jew.

2:10 Speaker 1 It is. I am so upset about that. It’s crazy. What’s going on in our country. Seems to be under attacked in many ways. Uh One, the fetanyl has not stopped, and it’s killed over one hundred thousand Americans and in just a year. And I’ve said to the some of my Chinese friends that are high up in the government,

2:39 why doesn’t I said, at a snap of a finger, your leadership could stop this. I mean what else could I say?

2:50 Speaker 2 Well? Kind of the fact is, and Peter Schweitzer just wrote a very powerful book on this topic. You have a Chinese offensive using non military means, crippling the United States, using TikTok to undermine our young people, pouring fentanyl into the country, encouraging the legal immigration, infiltrating our universities. All of these things are a long term Chinese strategy to

3:18 undermine and weaken America. And I think that it’s extraordinarily dangerous that we don’t realize that this kind of offensive can ultimately defeat our country. And you’re exactly right. Drug overdoses annually kill more people than we’re killed in eight years of the Vietnam War. Let me think about that.

3:41 We have a wall in Washington of the Vietnam Memorial Dead. If you had a similar wall for the number of people who died from fentanyl, it would basically run the link of the whole city.

3:54 Speaker 1 I agree with you. Let’s go international. Now, what the heck is going on in Israel? How do you see things? And also we’ll take up the Ukraine too, And there’s so much controversy about what wheedy is going on with the Ukraine.

4:12 Speaker 2 Well, I think you have two or three things going on in once. First of all, the Iranian dictatorship says publicly that his policy is death to America and death to Israel, and we seem confused about what that means.

4:26 As a historian, I’m pretty sure I know what death to America means. It means they would like to destroy US as a country. And they fund the whole bunch of puppets who have been attacking and killing Americans. And the Biden administration is so pathetic, so oriented towards weakness and appeasement, that is actually giving them money while they’re

4:45 killing Americans. That’s one front. The Israelis have a very straightforward problem. The official policy of Hamas is not a single Jew will remain well. That’s their official policy, and they’ve verified at recent and they have said publicly the first chance they get, there’s going to be another attack, like October seventh. The Israeli response has been to say

5:09 we’re going to destroy Hamas. Biden, for reasons that are very puzzling, came out and said that Rafo, the last great city that Hamas is hiding in. The Rafa should basically be a sanctuary city terrorism. If that happens, Israel will have lost the war because if Hamas can regenerate and reorganize and recruit, they’re going to be right back

5:33 trying to kill Israel. And we have to understand that this isn’t a fight where there’s a good negotiating position. I mean, if the other guy says not a single Jew will remain, should our big plan be well, could tend stay or could twenty stay? I mean, it’s crazy.

5:49 The kind of terrorism that Hamas represents has to be decisively defeated and wiped out. And that’s going to mean. Now you’ll notice nobody calls on Hamas. You don’t see Biden saying Hamas should release the hostages, Hamas should quit hiding behind civilians, Hamash should agree to a cease fire.

6:10 The pressure is always on Israel, and the anti Semitism inherent in that is stunning and a very dramatic change in the Democratic Party which is rapidly becoming the anti Semitic and anti Israeli party.

6:25 Speaker 1 I agree and UH and in Israel, I think what I’ve been told UH privately is is forbidden from attacking, attacking Iraq, Iran, UH and the Mullers who are supplying the money to the Hooties and and Hamases. And it’s just crazy what’s going on. And we’re allowing the hoodies to shut down the Suez Canal and shut down the UH,

6:57 the UH red sea, which increases the price of oil, increases the price of food.

7:03 Speaker 2 Yeah. Well, again, the most powerful navy in the world and the most powerful air force in the world are not being used to destroy the capacity of the hoodies. And they don’t. You know, as long as the Iranians pay them, and the Iranians keep giving the missiles, they don’t suffer any great loss by having this happens. It’s

7:24 an infuriating situation.

7:27 Speaker 1 It’s just terribly Ukraine. There’s there’s so many things going on in Ukraine that Zarinsky is stealing half the money’s going there as one as one story. The other story is they need more arms because they are they are breaking uh, Russia. The third story is but they can break Russia but not cross off the over the border

7:58 of Russia. Does anybody really know the truth?

8:03 Speaker 2 Well, I’m not sure how you would define the truth. It’s an objective fact that Putin launched a war. It’s an objective fact that the Ukrainians fought. When the American military member, the chairman that Joint Chief said the Russians will be in Kiev in three days, well they’re not there.

8:22 We were wrong, and the Russians were wrong, and the key question is if Putin wins in Ukraine, does he stop or does he go after Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania. And all the evidence is that if he could win in Ukraine. I’m not sure he can, but if he could win in Ukraine that he would continue to be

8:42 an expansionist leader trying to rebuild the Soviet Empire, which is what he wants to do. So we have a big vested interest. I hope that the House this coming week is going to pass sufficient aid to Ukraine that they do not run out of artillery, shows are able to compete with the Russians, and I think gradually they’re

9:04 actually wearing the Russians down and Ukrainians are getting much more sophisticated and much more capable. They recently bombed a factory eight hundred miles inside Russia with a drone, and they have destroyed about one third of the Russian Black Sea fleet and really driven it totally away from the Ukrainian coast. So we’re seeing some places where there is hope.

9:31 But if the West would rally and provide the equipment, and this is the key thing. Formever, Ukrainians have not asked for troops. They not asked for a single American to come to Ukraine. What they’ve said is, you give us the weapons, we’ll get the job done. Well. I think in this case it’s deeply to our interest to

9:50 not allow Putin to win, and I think it would be a very big, long term disaster if Putin does win.

9:58 Speaker 1 Understood, we’ve got a minute left. Anything on your mind that you want to get off your chest on a Sunday morning.

10:07 Speaker 2 Yeah, I think this coming week we’re going to see one more example of the total corruption of the New York system. The case that President Trump has been drug into is phony. The behavior of the judges, as the behavior of the Attorney General of New York and the District Attorney of Manhattan and the other judge who tried him.

10:29 These people are all crazy. We were warned a long time ago the power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. I think we’re seeing the most corrupt judicial system of American history in New York today, and I think that it calls for very dramatic reform.

10:49 Speaker 1 I agree one hundred percent. You can’t stop a competing president from running against Joe and also giving him a gag order. So you can’t even talk. I mean, this is worse than the third world country.

11:04 Speaker 2 Yes, and you saw Robert F. Kennedy Junior say on CNN that Biden is a greater threat to democracy than Trump, and that Biden’s government is an active, serious threat to freedom in America.

11:17 Speaker 1 And Biden will not even give Secret Service protection to Robert Kennedy even though his his father and uncle died by bullets from assassins.

11:30 Speaker 2 I mean, you can you cannot imagine a crueler and more calculating active viciousness than Biden saying we are not going to let the Secret Service protect you even though your father and your uncle were both assassinated. I mean, it’s just there’s something sick about the Biden administration.

11:50 Speaker 1 Mister speaker, thank you so much for coming on, thank you for telling getting you off your chest and telling the truth to the American people. And we’ll catch up again, will soon.

12:00 Speaker 2 It’s always great to be with you. M
