Who will help when our military runs out of ammo?
The 35% are the HARD CORE American, let me say again, Americans, who HATE the country; who believe the country's founding was unjust, and are RABID Socialists or Communists. Talk about indoctrinated🤯🤖
My opinion, is that Blinken & Company, to help the 2024 election, will do their best to thwart Israeli efforts. Hamas must be defeated in detail. The Democrat Party will do ANYTHING to keep power!!👽🤖
Mayor Adams is an idiot. If the "demonstrators" would carry photo placards of George Floyd, wonder how many NYC residents would join in? You think DA Bragg is gonna prosecute any of these "students"? I hear Mayor Adams has a bridge for sale, too.🤣
Well, Mr. Wray, just what are YOU doing about it? Sounds to me like you are in CYA mode.
God already made it a one-state solution
A special "Thanx" to the Biden Admin, and Anthony Blinking and his 'foreign policy geniuses' for the BILLIONS in funds released to Iran so they can carry on their 'Death to Israel'; Death to America' PEACE efforts.🤮🤖
"Democracy" that is promoted by the likes of Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, AOC, Joe Biden, and the rest of the leftist corrupt, political "celebrities" is NOT something that has your best interest in mind. Their SOLE objectives are 1. Power, and 2. Your money.🤖
FISA was abused. CIA and others are corrupt. Maybe the 'Intel Community's should say ' We're sorry; it won't happen again' (🤞); only 'former CIA' would believe that. I'm all for letting it expire; other than spying on Trump and OTHERS in his circle, how has it helped...hmmm.?🤔 Asking for a friend.🤠
The Fed Govt has already shown it will abuse FISA. This should not be allowed. it WILL BE. abused. Trust Me👽👻
Since when are the DEMOCRATS going to do ANYTHING about border security? Biden OPENED the border with the stroke of his pen; he can CLOSE the border with a stroke of his pen. All you ILLEGALS, don't forget to register to vote to keep the 'free sheet' coming your way.👍👽🤖

That’s a lot of commercials for a 15 min podcast. I’m trying this out, but what a turn off.

I don't care for Spainish Speaking Commercials that I do NOT UNDERSTAND. AMERICAIN ENGLISH is our Native Language. and we went to great Strides to Get English the International Language for all Aircraft and Businesses.
looking forward to new episodes, but please work on that radio voice! More natural sounding, less like a Michael Bay movie trailer.
What happened? You said there was going to be an announcement on the next podcast, which never came.
Blackwater was a private security company. To compare Blackwater and Wagner is a far stretch. When the Columbian shooting occurred, it was Blackwater Water that came up with Anti-school shootings procedures. Mutiple Police agencies went and trained on Blackwater mount sites to learn how to deal with hostage situations and active shooter situations. Also, Blackwater was one of the major four companies subcontracted by the State Department. Their primary focuse was providing security for government employees, including Civil Services contractors. They weren't ever a private military as Wagner is being used as. Many in the US military did not understand that Blackwater could not fall under the jurisdiction of the DOD. Private security is protected under the Genva Convention, mercs are not. If Blackwater fell under the US military, then it would violate the US agreement of the Genva Convention.
Love the podcast, but the in consistant posting times bothers me. I prepare my podcast list before 6 am, sometimes this podcast posts before 530, sometimes at 530, and other times we'll after 530. Also the inappropriate ad, I could do without. "where's the stage at place you've gotten lucky"
