0:00 fill her up you're listening to the gas digital Network we need to roll back the state we spy on all of our own citizens our prisons are flooded with non-violent drug offenders if you want to know who America's Next enemy is look at who we're funding right now every single one of these problems are a result of government being way too big you're always you're listening what's up everybody Welcome to a brand new episode of part of the problem very special episode today I'm I'm very excited about this show uh we have joining us uh guest who I'm thrilled to have on the show he is a current candidate for president of the United States on the Democratic party he is one of the most interesting political figures in America today at least in my humble opinion Mr Robert F Kennedy Jr thank you so much for taking some time you know I've I've known of you for a long time but I became really interested

1:04 in you during the covid the response Insanity it was really nice to see people of prominence who hadn't lost their mind uh during that time and of course I've been very interested in your your presidential campaign um well I I where should I start here did you uh was it just in your blood that you were destined to run for president did you think you were going to run for president if I thought I was going to run for president but I um you know that what happened during covet was just it seemed like not only the country but the party my party had completely gone off the rails and had was departing from all of the you know um the the principles and beliefs that liberals Democrats were he's always stood for we became the party of War uh when Democrats were always skeptical of War we became the party of fear and you know fdrs had the only thing we have to fear is fear itself and the reason that he

2:07 said that he said that in 1932 during his inaugural address for his inaugural during his first uh presidency and he said that because the Depression had scared everybody and uh there were people in our country who were you know taking their money out of the banks and putting in their mattresses the unemployment was it historical highs Banks were closing businesses were closing the same thing was happening in Europe and Roosevelt saw what was happening in Italy and Spain and Germany where totalitarian right-wing totalitarian elements who are promoting and uh and using fear in order to erase Democratic rights and constitutional rights Germany was the most democratic uh nation in Europe and to uh and to erect these uh totalitarily totalitarian infrastructures in Eastern Europe and and Russia in the Soviet Union the same thing was happening you had just all in others using fear to create a left-wing totalitarianism and what

3:20 Roosevelt in our country a third of the people had lost faith in democracy and wanted to mimic what was happening in uh in Western Europe with the fascist regime and another third had lost faith in democracy and wanted to be communist and so he he was saying to the American people the thing we need to fear is fear as fear is a tool of totalitarian elements whether they're left-wing or right-wing and if we stay the course and stay calm I'm that this ship is going to write itself and uh and so that was a warning you know that I grew up thinking that America was the home of the free in the land of the Brave and the reason that we were the home of the free is because we were the land of the Brave and all of a sudden you had the Democratic party that was just you know pumping up fear and stoking it and you know and inflaming it and telling us we all had to obey and we all had to abandon our constitutional

4:19 rights and they you know they they dismantled the car in front of my eyes they dismantled the Constitution they went after first freedom of speech which Madison Hamilton Adams said we put that in a free expression the First Amendment there's all the other amendments are dependent on it if a government can silence its critics it has license for any atrocity and as soon as they realize okay they're putting up with it you know they're actually going to put up with this they went after the other Plank and the first amendment was freedom of worship they closed all the churches for a year with without any scientific citation no Democratic process no notice and comment rule making all the things that I've been suing government corporation for years of enacting rules without notice and comment rumik suddenly they had one an elected bureaucrat who's telling everybody to stay in your arms they closed 3.3

5:20 million businesses with no due process not just compensation they they banned jury trials or pharmaceutical companies who injured you know their customers uh and they you know they got rid of they made an all-out assault on the fourth amendment prohibitions against warrantless searches and seizures with all this surveillance and intrusion you know and truth and questions about we have to produce our medical records before we leave our home and go into a building or fly on an airplane or whatever so I saw this happening and uh and the Democratic party everybody just going along with it and I uh and that was when I started because I was getting I was the target of a lot of the censorship you know the White House we now know from the Twitter files and from the Facebook uh email release is the White House was directly collaborating with Mark Zuckerberg and with Twitter and they had given a portal with the CIA

6:19 and the FBI censoring American citizens including me and so at that point I uh I said well the only way that I'm going to be allowed to speak is if I run but my wife would never let me run if she didn't if I she would not not allow me to run just to make a point right you know make an argument so but then we started seeing these polls there's a a poll famous pollster called Jeremy's ogby that started polling me without me knowing it and he brought me the polls and when that showed you know that I could win and I showed those to Cheryl and she said okay I'm on board wow okay that's it see my wife would have the opposite attitude she'd go if there's a chance you could win you can't do it but if you're definitely not gonna win then then go for it make your point but that is no listen if you were trying to just make a point and not win and you're looking at some of these polls I think I'd be a little concerned because you

7:20 are that it is very interesting to see the way the the uh corporate press is trying to deal with you now I talk about on this show constantly the dishonesty of the corporate press and the propaganda and the misinformation they accuse us of spreading misinformation but the real misinformation that comes out I mean just in the last 20 years misinformation with uh with catastrophic consequences like claiming that Saddam Hussein was working with Osama Bin Laden to plan a news weapons of mass destruction you know that was an eight trillion dollar lie yeah yeah when and a million human being in Iraq days and three three and a half thousand Americans more people than died in the World Trade Center and and by the way that's not counting the soldiers who came home and blew their brains out from the trauma so yeah then another right so make it more like yeah 23 a day yeah yeah it's horrific and so so that's like

8:16 the misinformation they put and then of course through the covet and all of the you know the the vax if you get the vaccine you can't get the the the virus you can't spread the virus and none of those guys ever get labeled as someone who spread coveted misinformation but I gotta say even as somebody who focuses uh like very intently on the propaganda spread by the corporate press I was really Blown Away by Abc's handling of of your interview where they actually these people who all day long are shouting about the threats to democracy decided you the viewer cannot hear what this presidential candidate who in the latest Rasmussen poll is tied with the sitting press president what this candidate has to say to you you cannot hear but we will inform you that it's wrong and if there was something about that that really like I was like I can't believe they're actually going for this and I think obviously it's because

9:13 people because they know that you're making a really good point about this stuff and they don't want their viewers to hear it because they're worried they might be persuaded by what you have to say yeah but it is weird that they think um you know that they're they think that their job now they it used to be that the Press uh considered itself the guardian of the First Amendment and that any intrusions or impingements on Free Speech uh they all had to get up and shout them down and now they're they're purveyors of censorship and on that you know I mean what they did on ABC was particularly egregious because they they just were doing it right in front of us she asked me that you know the host asked me a question said it was a setup question I I didn't go on there to talk about vaccines I you know I'm not leading with vaccines of people I don't talk about vaccines my speeches unless you know the group wants me to

10:12 um and it's not you know the reason that I'm running but if somebody asked me about them I'm going to tell the truth and I know a lot about it and so she said to me you know something to the extent it was like not just a question but it was a speech in a question it was everything you've said about vaccines and autism is has been debunked how do you explain yourself so I you know I let loose and I know a lot about it and I was citing job studies and you know the names of studies and and uh and so when when she aired it she got it to her her little question was on and then it and then everything I said was was removed and at the end and and they started out that she bracketed the uh the segment with a little speech about Pharma at the beginning and saying I was you know condemning me as a spreader promoter of misinformation and then she did the same thing at the end and she said we had to censor him

11:14 because he was saying something that wasn't true and we know you appreciate that as our audience it's very very strange and disturbing yeah and then a couple weeks later Donald Trump has this uh town hall on CNN where I guess they did let him speak but they're getting a lot of pushback uh from people who are saying oh you shouldn't have given him a platform we shouldn't have let him speak I mean however you feel about Donald Trump this just seems to me to be a crazy position that the former president of the United States of America ought be silenced so that the the the current front-runner in the Republican field that the Americans it's just it's very bizarre to me how every single day these people talk about the threats to democracy and yet they seem to be the first ones who Embrace censorship of political figures who are not like Fringe this guy's at one percent political figures but guys who are

12:12 polling very well with I mean if they can't speak then what is democracy what's the you get to vote but you can't hear what people are running on and make your own decisions it's this is something out of like a cartoon world yeah and you know um the Democrats don't like and that management media is not really talking about the Durham report but for me because I've been concerned for so many years about um you know the the uh about the CIA is illegal uh propagandizing American people which is not legally allowed to do that report is appalling and it's not just the report and the guy who did it which you can say okay you know he had some motive or whatever but you know it's the the transcripts of the conversations at the CIA and FBI agents were having where they were acknowledging what they were doing was wrong that it had no basis and so you have the CIA coming in 50 CIA top level CIA agents

13:16 who agree to collaborate in a project uh to uh to fix an election and to discredit one of the candidates and you know I'm not I don't like Donald Trump I don't think he was a good president and he and you know but but people are allowed to disagree with that and I can be friends with people who don't agree with me and I can listen to their point of view and you know we we need to apply rules across the board yeah we just can't just say it's okay to shut up Donald Trump it's okay for CIA agents to you know to fix an election against him yeah exactly it's unbelievable how many people have this binary thinking because I'll say something about this like how how uh you know horrible uh uh this this whole you know Russian investigation was and people would be like oh so you love Donald Trump and like no I think Donald Trump was a horrible president on many fronts I think the like I will never forgive

14:15 Donald Trump for funding the Saudi war in Yemen I will never forgive Donald Trump for blowing up budgets in The Reckless way that he did and I will never forgive him for keeping fauci as the head of the task force in the fall of 2020. or how about however locking down the whole country yeah and supporting it at least the governors were doing it however I can also look at the information here and go look it's pretty clear that this was a frame job and what you have here is the the intelligence agencies framing the sitting president of the United States for treason this is a very serious offense now I'm sure you've never heard of the CIA working against a sitting president before nothing in your family history that could possibly uh maybe bring that up but that obviously this also is not how they're doing it right in front of us yes that's right all right guys let's take a moment and thank

15:59 at sheathunderwear.com all right let's get back into the show so let me ask you because uh like it's a little bit off or yeah if you want to whatever you want to do sure it's um it's it's almost a little look to whatever you want take it all off sir to me um there is a there this is like I'm talking about American history uh and I tried to segue in with a a bad joke but I know I'm when I'm talking to you about this I'm talking about like your father and your uncle so it's it's a little bit more personal but I know you've talked about this before but isn't this kind of in some way doesn't it kind of remind you of like what happened with your uncle um what seems to have happened with Donald Trump not saying whether you agree with the policies either way but it does seem like you ask the question like what's really going on here in this government when we have these unelected um secretive three-letter organizations

16:55 that are working against the duly elected president of the United States you know if for all the people freaking out about democracy it seems to me like that would be a real threat to democracy yeah I mean I um yeah I mean I I just I think it's so um you know I use the word appalling um but you know and January 6 was I was a really you know was uh was was a horrible thing day for our country and the people who broke the law as you go to jail but is it more threatening to our country if you have a bunch of you know sort of yahoos storming the capital because you know okay they make great great Havoc for a day but the whole you know United States military is sitting there to protect our government and they're not going to bring down American democracy even when you have a president who you know would like to fix the vote or whatever there's there's a lot of checks and balances but what happens when the CIA is

17:57 interfering with elections there's no checks and balances that is a real threat to American democracy what happens when the CIA is involved in censoring people like me who are critical of government policies and by the way if I was promoting misinformation the Constitution protects that oh you know the remedy for misinformation is not censorship it's more information but having said that I was promoting misinformation if I was promoting this information show me the statement I made that was actually incorrect well that's why it's so guess what all all corrected right well that's why the ABC reaction was so crazy because look if obviously if you're uh the a journalist and you claim someone is promoting misinformation well then your job is to know 10 times more than they know about the the subject and demonstrate to your viewer how they're wrong about this and then let your viewer decide like oh yeah it did seem

18:56 like that journalist actually knew a lot more about the vaccine than RFK Jr did and therefore she was able to expose him however they know that you know 10 times more than them and that they can't do that so they just silence you but I do I I just wanna and I I wouldn't object even if they asked me the question and let me answer and then have their whole Army of researchers go out and look at everything I said and parse in and then put up you know some you know a defense saying he was wrong here was wrong there they can do that but to just say we're going to censor him is really uh shows a contempt for the law because the law makes it illegal to censor on that on the on the publicly owned Airwaves ABC does not own the airwaves ABC has a license to use them and it must use them for the public benefit um and you know part of the public benefit there's a provision in the code of federal regulations 45 CFR I think is

19:53 413. that says you can't censor a presidential candidate um so they were showing contempt for the law but they were really showing contempt for their their function you know which is to not to manipulate information but to tell the truth unvarnished to the American people and let us make up our mind instead they were manipulating the public you know they were saying you are not mature enough to hear things that and we're going to decide what you can and cannot hear and we're gonna get we're only gonna allow you to hear things that um that promote the reigning orthodoxies right well I think one of the things that you're uh ironically I think you're benefiting from this treatment that the media is giving you because I do and I think that's part of the reason why I think your poll numbers have gone up since uh some of this treatment from the media because I do think that for the majority of people look even in that ABC

20:52 interview one of the things that I thought was kind of uh amusing was they they started with trying to like throw at you that some of your family disagrees with the positions you've been taking and they're like well this family member of yours doesn't agree with you and this family member said this and I I'm I'm sitting there listening to it and the only thing I feel when I hear that is I go oh well that's that's kind of courageous that he would this guy will take a position that is even going to get him some heat from within people very close in his life but he really believes it so he's going to take this position and they don't even see it from that angle and I think for a lot of people I think this is one of the things uh one of the things that Donald Trump benefited from a lot in 2016 and then throughout his presidency is that whether you like him or not I used to say this all the time I'd be like I

21:39 can't stand Donald Trump but the media makes me want to root for him because they're so unfair to him that he just makes you want to root for them and I like you much better and the media is making me want to root for you and especially because I also happen to think you're right about these uh these issues that you're talking about um you know the other thing about that you know my family first of all I mean and what I said to her is I said does your family like support everything you say because mine doesn't my family you know like coming home to the dinner table and my parents encouraged us when we were kids they're you know 11 kids and they encourage us to argue with each other and to you know and to stand up for ourselves and you know our dinner table was like hand to hand combat you know but we still love each other right we know we can disagree on issues and if you read anything about my grandfather

22:32 Joseph Kennedy that's what he did with his kids he would take a position and then make him argue against it so you know I there's many things that I've differed over the history with my family um there are people in my family who like legalize marijuana they're people who don't you know there's people in my family now who like the war in Ukraine and you know I and other members don't so but it doesn't make us hate each other and that's something we need to do learn to do as a country um but you know the the reference to that in is so ubiquitous in every article about me his own family disagrees with them but you know show me let's talk about the issues let's talk about why I'm wrong on the issues and my you know that's I think that would be more productive one of the things that happened during the pandemic that was really kind of disturbing to me was that appeals to Authority which is a

23:30 logical fallacy I'm displaced uh actual evidence-based arguments so that you could say you're wrong about this issue because CDC says you know you're wrong CDC says something different who says something different and we have to trust the experts are trusting the experts is not a function of Science and it's not a function of democracy it's a function of uh of you know religion and totalitarian regimes yeah science Dynamic it changes constantly I you know I I've brought over 500 lawsuits and every lawsuit that I bring almost all of them involves scientific controversy and there's always experts on both sides so when we sued Monsanto there were you know there were experts at Monsanto running experts from Stanford from Yale and Harvard and we had experts from Stanford Yale and Harvard and they were looking at the same evidence and saying completely different things and so trusting the experts is not

24:35 something that you know we do and is not something that's done in science if he trusted the experts we'd still believe that you know the sun revolved around the earth right it was one dissident you know Galileo and also Copernicus who said no um the the sun is is stationary and we're revolving around it and that was heresy and all the experts on that time disagreed with them and you know the experts disagreed about many things in the modern era about smoking cigarettes you know doctors recommended it for many years x-rays um you know x-raying pregnant women which was you know causing all these cancers and every doctor was supporting it thalidomide viox opioids the entire regulatory superstructure was saying opioids are not you know oxycodone is not addictive yeah all the doctors you know people say oh I have to trust my doctor all the doctors were saying that I have friends of mine and most people

25:36 around my age I'm 40 a lot of people around my age know this I I have friends of mine who became drug addicts because they in the 90s they were just prescribing opioids like crazy it was just like whatever some kid you know broke his leg or something like that they just give him tons of opioids and I mean I know one kid who's dead now and went into heroin yeah that's horrible many many I mean you know I have not many people who died who died too including Family Matters um uh a hundred thousand kids die a year now from that that mistake you know that FDA made with by collaborating secretly with the opioid industry with the sacklers making secret deals overruling people within the agency who are saying wait a minute this is not right and then going ahead and putting that recommendation on the you know on the on the bottles um and on there um manufactures inserts where they could say it's not addictive and the doctors

26:37 were reading that saying oh FDA says it's not addicted to the same thing they did with the vaccines and you know and so you can't really trust the experts especially when it's a regulatory agencies that are you know who are a captive agency they're basically a wholly owned subsidiary of the pharmaceutical industry yeah and and somehow it's like a one-two punch because all the people who are saying trust the experts or the regimes that insist you trust the experts also come down the hardest on any expert who deviates from what the experts are supposed to be saying so it's like it's like trust the experts but this one must be ruined you know like he can't not that expert not the Great Barrington declaration like those aren't experts all of a sudden so it's this interesting thing when you gave I listened to your uh your announcement speech that you gave a few weeks back um which was a really great speech it

27:25 was over an hour long and the central theme of it really was uh on what you were just saying that essentially there is this Unholy alliance between big business and big government that is screwing over average Americans and I really love that because I you know I don't think I don't know that there's been a president campaign since I would say Ron Paul's campaigns got it that I don't really think there's been a presidential campaign since where that has been the central issue of what they're saying that it's like look this is obviously all all of it like all the major crises that are facing this country are a rigged game on behalf of the powerful and you can get here from like a liberal Democrat point of view or from a Libertarian point of view either way we could have a but look if you're talking about the Warfare machine you're talking about look however you feel about the war in Ukraine like I'm

28:16 completely opposed to American intervention and support for it but even if you support it you can recognize that there are weapons companies that are raking in tens of billions of dollars off this yeah it's a money laundering yes game for you know we give our 113 billion to the Ukraine but 90 of that comes right back to the you know to the military industrial the big contractors you know General Dynamics Etc Lockheed who are making the weapons that are being sold over there and by the way then you look at all the generals who are appearing on CNN yeah and saying oh we need to be over there and they're retired generals and you look at where they're working well they're working for those contractors so you have this whole thing that's rigged to keep us in this concept of this to provide a constant pipeline of new Wars in order to feed the military industrial complex and you know the CIA is a

29:10 captive agency and my uncle recognized that my uncle and he came into office two months in and you know he sat down with Alan Dulles Richard Bissell from the CIA and uh and Charles Cabell and they told they lied to him to his face about Cuba they said he said how are these 1200 guys going oh you know conquering an army casual was an army of 200 000 men really well trained and the best intelligent service in the Western Hemisphere how is this going to happen they said there's so much discontent against Castro on that uh that that the people as soon as they land they don't need Military Support as soon as they land the people are going to rise up and support them and they send them to a place where there was no place they could hide you know and my uncle realized when those men were dying on the beach you realize that that the CIA had lied to him and he came out of his office and he said I want to take the CIA and

30:13 shatter it in a thousand pieces and Scatter it to the winds and uh he recognized then and thereafter that he was surrounded by an intelligence apparatus and by uh Pentagon brass is Joint Chiefs who believe who's you know the intelligence apparatus had devolved into a function of just providing this constant uh parade of new Wars and the Pentagon Chiefs wanted to get into the war because that's how they get promotion that's how they expanded he said at one point yeah we got it in a nuclear conflict with the Russians and 30 million Americans die 130 million Russians and then who's in charge it's going to be these guys you know so they're going to win no matter what and you know he recognized that he was surrounded by this you know this cabal that um that wanted to go to war and my uncle his best friend one of his two best friends Ben Bradley who was the publisher of the Washington Post asked him one day what do you want in

31:15 your grave Stone and my uncle said instantly he said he kept the peace and he said to Bradley the primary job of a president of the United States is to keep the country out of war and um you know if he you know and he was able to do that during his regime he didn't he never said any combat troops abroad he sent he sent and they wanted him to send 250 000 uh combat trips to Vietnam they said it would fall and he said if it's not our war they need to win it themselves we'll send advisors he sent 16 000 Green Berets and they weren't by the rules of engagement allowed to participate in combat which they violated but and 75 of them died and he asked for a casualty report one day from one of his aides and they came back and said 75 and he said we're not going to lose another one this is not worth an American Life and that day this was October of 63 less than a month before he died he he ordered he signed a national

32:20 security order that afternoon ordering all those troops home by the end of 65 and the first thousand and the next month and um you know by by the way he sent more people more troops federal troops to to Jackson Mississippi to get Meredith into Ole Miss oh you know this is a very minimal commitment um but he managed to keep Americans out of out of Vietnam and uh and out of Wars he refused to go into Laos he refused to go into Berlin when the military all wanted him he figured out how to resolve this huge conflict that we had in 62 at Checkpoint Charlie and he became in the process friends with Khrushchev and he put a telephone in our house you know that's in my brother's house now the lines are still coming out uh but when we we knew when we were kids that you know his house at the cape which we wandered through all the time you know walked in uh every day that if we picked up that red phone the

33:21 Khrushchev would answer because he why he didn't trust his own people right and he knew for a good reason yeah both both probably for a good reason you know it's interesting because one of the craziest aspects over the last year plus now during this war in Ukraine is that there isn't communication and in fact that blanket brags about the fact that he's not negotiating with Sergey lavrov that he's not negotiating and in fact at least according to Fiona Hills reporting and a couple other reports that we've been discouraging negotiations between the ukrainians and uh the Russians and it's like my God I mean just imagine imagine if your uncle was not willing to talk to the Russians during say the Cuban Missile Crisis or something right I mean and so it's like the game that they're playing is it's there's there's no language strong enough for how Reckless it is it's insane and the the you know the tell

34:16 is that zielinski calls up prime minister Jay from uh China and says to him will you settle this war because I know that you know my supporters don't want it settled and you know by the way zielinski ran in 1990 and 2019 he ran he here's a guy who's a comedian an actor and which you know I'm not saying in a disparaging way because go ahead it's fine I'm married to one of those too and uh but he won with 70 of the vote and the reason he won is he ran on a peace platform and he ran saying I'm going to sign the mixed Accords and people need to know the men's Accords were the you know I mean just to go through some of the history and um in 24th the Ukraine had a democratically elected government and uh that was that was neutral but very open and welcoming to the rush and uh and and we overthrow that let me put it this way we spent five billion dollars creating protest movements to fund protest

35:29 movements over there that ended in 2014 with the overthrow of that government and it's unclear how much America the United States government was orchestrating the actual violent part of that that happened at the very end but we do know that Victoria Newland who's one of the neocons has been around since you know forever since the Iraq War Real Deal neocon Robert kagan's wife the founder of project for New American Century like real high-level neocons yeah and these are the people who got us into Iraq yes so you know they went into Iraq it was an eight trillion dollar mistake that ended up uh you know with leaving Iraq much worse as you pointed out we killed a million Iraqis far more Iraq we killed more Iraqis than Saddam Hussein ever did we left that Nation uh this kind of incoherent mess with which a battle between Sunni and Shia death squads we push it into a proxy posture with Iran which is the foreign policy

36:29 objective that we've tried to avoid for 40 years we created Isis we've we then you know it it led into the amen war or LED into Syria and we created two million refugees who then flooded Europe and destabilized every nation every democracy in Europe and probably almost certainly led to brexit and uh and the breakup of Europe so that's what we got and that eight trillion dollars that Victorian Newland and her you know or her gangs man so now she wants to do the same thing regime trains with with Russia which they're very open about that is the aspiration of the neocons so they have her on a telephone you know that was recorded choosing the next cabinet when we overthrow when the when the government gets overthrown Russia then you put yourself my uncle always said you got to put yourself into this is the adversary says okay there's a U.S government there's a U.S created government now in Ukraine on our border

37:33 the Russians are worried about Ukraine because they've been invaded three times through Ukraine and the last time they were invaded in World War II Hitler invaded through Ukraine and killed one out of every seven Russians right 13 of the of the country was killed and uh and and we we reduced to rubble a third of the country so they're sensitive about the Ukraine they don't want nato in the Ukraine and they don't want you as weapon systems in the Ukraine and they made that really clear and now they say okay now we have a hostile U.S government U.S Place government in the Ukraine um and so they go in immediately and invade Crimea why because the uh they're scared that the U.S Navy is going to make Sebastopol a U.S base a naval base because the U.S Navy is already in the Bosphorus and the Black Sea and um and that's their nightmare it's their only warm water Port it's been with that it's been the airport for 370

38:41 years so it's it we would do exactly the same thing if we were in that position we would go in and we would take control of the board yeah it's critical to our national security you know before the U.S Navy arrived sure and then um so then then the U.S meanwhile Trump walks away from the internet intermediate nuclear uh weapons treaty which had you know was critical to Russia we also walked away from the ABM Treaty we start funneling uh offensive weapons in to Ukraine and we start training the Ukrainian Army for interoper operability with NATO and so that Russians are looking at this plus the new government comes in and the nation and and starts killing Russians and the dumbass ethnic Russians and the dumbass the people dumbass then has an election and they vote to join Russia Russia says we don't want it we don't want to break up Ukraine here's what you do and they they work out with Germany and France

39:51 the Mexico Court the mix Accord says okay uh Damas is going to say part of Ukraine but it's going to be autonomous so they can have their own language because the new government had banished the Russian language that was their first act the first act after they came in right yeah so they were treating the dumbass like red-headed stepchildren and you know I'm like foreign you know uh uh threats and the Russians who lived in Nebraska but Russia supports the Mexican courts so in the men's Accords get NATO out of pledge that NATO will never envelop Ukraine and that um and that dumbass will have an autonomy within the Ukraine so we can have its own language have its own culture and protect its citizens from aggression by the Ukrainian government and um and solenski runs in 2019 saying I'm going to ratify the Minx Accords but he gets in there and then the U.S government moves in and says you know we

40:56 don't want that we want essentially we want a war with Russia and um you know now you know I think anybody in Ukraine would accept the mix Accords with you know that that outcome you know which I think is going to be hard to reach at this point because the Russians are now already um change their constitution to make dumbass part of Russia all right guys let's take a moment and thank our sponsor for today's show which is zebiotics if you've ever skipped a workout because of drinks the night before or you've just had a rough morning after drinks the night before go check out zebiotics zebiotics pre-alcohol probiotics is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic it was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking here's how it works when you drink alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut it's this byproduct not dehydration that's to blame for your

42:57 who is the current head of the CIA he himself when he was informing the Secretary of State he the the memo basically reads that hey if you continue with this talk about Ukrainian entry into NATO Russia is very concerned that this is going to happen and this is going to happen and if there's a civil war Russia will have to decide whether to intervene and he says in his own words the head of the CIA he says a choice Russia does not want to have to make and it seems pretty clear that they did not want it to get to this point now again people who hear this will say so you're justifying Putin Invaders which is which is nonsense of course he's not justified and invading but let's just understand the situation here that it does seem that he wanted to avoid this and it seems like man it seems like the higher ups in the U.S government wanted him to be put into this position and as zabigny as a big

43:45 new Brzezinski bragged in his Memoir that they wanted to lure the Soviets into Afghanistan to give them their own Vietnam that this seems like once again that's the plan we've done it before and it seems like we probably did it again and look like again and and the last thing I'll say and then I'll turn it over to you because I know we got a rap soon um your uncle I think very reasonably said when the Soviets wanted to put missiles in Cuba he said no that is a deal breaker for us like I know technically Cuba is not U.S territory but you cannot have nuclear missiles pointed at our country from a few miles off of our Shores that is a deal but we will not stand that we're taking that as an act of aggression and almost all Americans look at that and say yeah that's reasonable that's reasonable to say there's no reason for Russian missiles to be a few miles off of our border and before Putin invaded

44:35 to say hey Ukraine cannot be a part of your military Alliance I think is a reasonable position for the Russians to have I think there's nothing wrong by the way my uncle and my father made the deal with Khrushchev they made a secret deal right and the secret deal was we will take the U.S that the reason Russia wanted to put the misses in Cuba is because we had put Jupiter missiles in Turkey right right and and by the way I Ukraine there's parts of the Ukraine that are only 400 miles from Moscow that's a lot farther than Cuba was from Washington DC oh you know the threat and we we have a rule in our hemisphere we've never been invaded we have a rule that our atmosphere called the Monroe's auction that says nobody can put any weapons or any of their soldiers no European country can put any of us or Asian country anywhere in our hemisphere even Argentina Sierra del Fuego you're not allowed to do it so you know for us to

45:37 say okay we're going to enforce that year but we're gonna have a different set of rules for Raja because Russia's the enemy and by the way when did Russia become the enemy you know when we decided we told Russia in 1991 and 1992. we we were trying to get you know Gorbachev said look I'm into dismantle this Soviet Union you need to make me a pledge you're not going to move NATO to the east because what if I'm in dismantling the Soviet Union it meant allowing reunification in Germany there are 400 000 Soviet troops in Germany so and they and group Gorbachev agreed to remove those troops and allow NATO to take over Germany so he was allowing you know a hostile Force to take over and moving his own troops out but he said you got to promise me before you do this and we you know there's in all of these documents that are now available in the archives who you cannot move NATO to these and Bush told them we will not move Nato one

46:40 inch to these well now we've brought it a thousand miles to these we have 14 countries we put Aegis missile systems which are nuclear uh adaptables so you they they brag locky brags on the you know the manufacturer's promotional materials these will take the tomahawk missiles which have nuclear warheads and can be in minutes in Moscow we put those in Romania we put them in Poland and clearly you know they were worried that we were now going to make a Ukraine part of NATO and put them there oh to say that they don't have some legitimate Security National Security concerns is is uh I don't know there has to be something you have to have some kind of cognitive dissonance and you know to the point that you were making about kind of how the mission had changed from there because my my son went over there to fight so you know my son didn't tell anybody what he was going to do and my son Connor and and uh

47:40 I told he had a you know a summer job for bomb Headland which is you know the best Law Firm on the west coast and he was going to live with us and I was really excited about it and he um you know at the beginning in Spring I said when do you start working from Headland and he said uh he said I gave them notice I'm not going there and I was like what are you doing and he said he was at dinner with me and Cheryl and his girlfriend who knew what he was doing but didn't tell us and he said I'm uh I I'm doing something and Dad I don't want you to ask me what I'm doing and then he disappeared and so you know Cheryl and I were like wow that's unusual but you know what are we going to do with it he's a grown-up then he disappears and we do see a credit card bill I had access to his credit card bills and we saw a credit card bill from Poland so I thought oh he may be you know doing something in Ukraine and then

48:37 we got another one from the Ukraine and then they just stopped and for two months we didn't really hear from him and he joined the Special Forces Unit he joined the Foreign Legion uh he was assigned to a Special Forces Unit and he was a machine gunner for the union so he went over there because he was motivated for the same reason that they take advantage of all Americans I'm not saying he was taking advantage of it I supported you know support for the Ukraine and he did too and he thought you know I shouldn't but I argued with him a lot about the Ukraine and he felt like I shouldn't be arguing and you know forward and letting other people fight the war oh he went over there and um for the same reason we all did it was humanitarian we have a huge compassion with the Ukrainian people who've been illegally invaded in the brutality and violence of that invasion and for admiration for their Valor and

49:30 their courage and standing up this incredible courage they've demonstrated um but then you know we start it starts looking a lot less like in a humanitarian mission every choice we make is about prolonging the war right and it's not about you know if it's humanitarian it means curtailing the war and and and reducing the bloodshed and Biden comes out and says oh what we're doing over there is actually regime change against Putin which is this old ambition of Victoria Newland and the neocons and then Lloyd Austin who's the Secretary of Defense says that uh you know our purpose over there is to degrade the Russian army and exhaust its capacity to fight anywhere else in the world well that's the opposite of humanitarian right that is a war of attrition and who is getting killed it's the you know Ukrainian said I've used this figure that 300 000 you granted that we know the U.S government and Ukrainian government are lying about

50:34 the the cost to Ukrainian kids how many have died in this war but when um when General's illusioning and Vladimir zielinski came to Washington in December they had a private meeting in the Pentagon and a pentagon with Mark melley and with that it was out of the Joint Chiefs and defense secretary Lloyd Austin and during that meeting one of some of the staffers said afterward that solution he said we have lost 300 000 troops already and I talked to uh uh Colonel Doug McGregor yesterday who was the 400 former senior advisement yeah we've had him on the show before he's great yeah he's terrific and he said um that it's probably at 350 000 now because two two thousand were killed this weekend ukrainians and they're they're killing the Russians are killing ukrainians they're ratives you know five to one or six to one but it's not you know we were I feel like okay we were tricked this was not a war of humanitarian War uh we

51:41 have turned Ukraine into a pawn in these you know geopolitical imaginations that are that you know have created this proxy war between two great powers and we're grinding this poor little Nation to dust in between them and and Ukraine will be lucky if it comes out as a country even at this point the Russians this is a critical issue with Russians they cannot lose this war it would be like us losing a war to Mexico you know we we can't afford to do it and if China you know was was uh putting missiles in Mexico and Ouija and and Mexico was killing killed 14 000 American expatriots we would go in and stop and and we can't afford to lose it and you know for us Ukraine is an afterthought it has nothing to do with our national security yeah for the Russian it's critical and our national security should be dictate that we should not be at war with Russia because our primary adversary right now is China

52:43 and pushing the Russians into alliance with China as Kissinger said is the worst possible outcome for National Security of the United States of America and it's already been achieved it seems it seems like we've pushed them into an alliance you know it's funny just as you mentioned I told you before we started recording that kind of my political origin story was the Ron Paul uh campaign in 2008 and this was really essentially the point he was making when he was talking about why there is so much hatred for us in the Muslim world and he was saying well look at our foreign policy and how many Muslims get killed over there this makes them very angry and it's just like the most basic just put the shoe on the other foot like just as you're saying now like just I I it it's crazy to me that people can't just see this like what would we do if Russia was interfering in Mexico and overthrowing their government and

53:29 putting military bases in there and it's like oh yes obviously we wouldn't put up with that so of course we can expect that they wouldn't either this to me just seems like common sense but I'm very glad that someone who's running for president someone who's doing as well as you are uh is is actually saying this so before I I've been told we got a rap what can people do if they want to support your campaign or find out more about you uh what's the any website or where can they go uh yeah they could go to uh kennedy24.com and please God please do so and you know if you can contribute uh to that if you can volunteer to do that let me make one other point of course absolutely when when my uncle was President he kept us out of War and he said I don't want the face of America abroad to be a soldier with a gun I want them to be a Peace Corps volunteer and he launched the Kennedy milk program that provided

54:21 um nutrition to millions of undernourished kids all over the developing world he launched the alliance for progress and usaid to try to build the middle class to go around no longer support military dictators but to actually build the middle class he said there's a revolution that's going to come in these countries and either Russia is going to own it or we are going to and we want to we want to be on the side of the oppressed America should be and you know as a result of that there's more statutes to my uncle um there's more boulevards named after more Avenues more universities and hospitals than any other U.S president and that's good for our national security you know I'm just saying this because it's the inverse of what right all said right and what we ought to be doing is not projecting military power abroad we ought to be projecting economic power which is what the Chinese do you know we

55:15 should build ourselves as a you know my my grandfather said America should be Fortress America we arm ourselves to the teeth around our borders and make ourselves too expensive to conquer and then we put all that money into building infrastructure and and building a generator for economic growth because that is the real power of a Nation every you know Paul Kennedy who's a great Yale historian did this article this book um called the end of Empires there's a client of fall of Empires um and he goes through all the empires of over 500 years and each one of them uh met its demise through over extending its military abroad right and why do we want to follow that the Chinese learn the the lesson from my uncle they're projecting we've spent eight trillion dollars since Iraq bombing Bridges and airports and ports and hospitals and homes and they've spent eight trillion the same amount building

56:16 those things and they have permanent friendships and our friendships you know our friendships are like are you I said this on a part of this metaphor on the on the all-in podcast the other day that we're like the alcohol that goes behind on his mortgage and he goes into the bar with a milk money and he buys rounds for you know strangers and he thinks he's making friends yeah that's right but the male moment that money runs out they're no longer his friends and uh and that's what we've done that's our you know that's our strategy around the world the Chinese go in they don't ask is attached they build you a road they build you a hospital and they build you a university and people want to do business with them and the whole world now is you know Brazil just went over and switched the Chinese currency Argentina is about to go they they just brokered a deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran and they're switching the signings

57:13 that's going to cost us the loss of that Global Currency is going to cost us a minimum of 750 billion a year three quarters of a trillion dollars and you know we're letting it all happen because we're addicted to war and you know I look as commander-in-chief I'm going to defend our country but I'm going to ask this question is this important for U.S national security right are the is that a bad guy not are we helping somebody is it good for this country yeah and if it's not I'm not going to do it well that would be such an improvement over current policy I cannot tell you how much I hope Joe Biden makes the mistake of debating you I really hope that they're pushed into it because I would just love to see that and look I will say uh for the rest of your presidential campaign and Beyond this platform is open to you anytime you want to even if you're not in town if you want to do it over the computer I'd love to to talk

58:06 more because I found this all interesting and thank you so much for taking the time and coming in and best of luck with the rest of the campaign Dave thanks so much for having me all right and thanks everybody for listening catch you next time foreign
