What does the primal scream of a dying regime signify?

Eric Prince 0:02
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. I got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people. The people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
Brendan Steinhauser 0:24
And where do people like that go to share the big lie? Mega media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

How does the concept of mega media influence public perception?

Eric Prince 0:34
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved. War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bann. Okay, Colonel. By the way, you go by Colonel or you go by Doc? Go by Doc. It's the term of endearment my boys gave me in our first combat deployment in Iraq. They call doc, you better run. You better run. So listen, why are you doing this? What are the two or three priorities as you see it in the state of Texas that Abbott can't do? And why does it have to be you? Well, first of all, I was asked by a group of people to explore the idea. When I called General Flynn, when I called Allen West, when I called people that are serious in this business of security, which is really the baseline of it all for us, for me.
Eric Prince 1:33
It's like Eisenhower coming in, another Texan coming in after World War II and leading into the Cold War and really setting the conditions for Reagan's. By the way, Reagan is the first president I served under. I was asked, of course, I prayed about it. The most dangerous prayer you can pray. Lord, your will be done. Well, here I am. Now you can't jump out of a plane and go back in as a paratrooper. So we're on the ground, but we are making headway. Abbott's ratings right now are at 30% favorability ratings. University of Texas study. So for me, we're going to bring them onto our battlefield, the tactic, if you will. What can I do differently? I will provide serious security for the state. I will improve the Texas State Guard, a commensurate with at least, minimum, what Florida has right now, the State Guard.
Eric Prince 2:22
That is the state militia. 16 states have them underneath the Texas Military Department for me. And then I will then shut the border if and when when something else after President Trump comes in, I don't know who it's going to be. We don't work in a reactionary type of situation when we're trying to protect citizens. We have to be left to bang, if you will. That's the idea in the road. We got to be left, hit it before. So we've got to be prepared for that. So we must build a robust state guard system. It's there. It serves as a different capacity, but we need to bring it back up to what it was. Then you have to have the fiscal security. But understand the other vectors of attack. In Texas, water is a commodity.
Eric Prince 3:06
It is a commodity. But there are 300 right now that I know about AI data centers on their way into Texas. I don't know about you, but I can draw a picture of a glass of water, but I can't drink anything that AI can produce. And honestly, they use hundreds of millions of gallons of water, and they're putting one in Abilene right now that gets 18 inches of rain. The citizens don't like it because it was a backroom deal in Austin. Austin doesn't live in the periphery.

What are the priorities for security in Texas as discussed by the guest?

Eric Prince 3:30
Austin has a different mentality. Our legislators in Austin are mostly rhinos. There are some good ones in there, but they're in the minority. Byron Harrison's one of them, leading the charge on letting out. He's another sentinel, if you will. He's a watchman. And so we get more and more like that. We can shift the tide. Why can I do that? I don't know everything there is to know with regard to taxes, but I got the smartest people in the state working on it. I do understand that leadership is the bottom line on how to be responsible for everything that happens and fails to happen and to delegate out as appropriate to the smartest people in the room. You are hitting on something. It's the data centers. It's not just the energy.
Eric Prince 4:09
It's the water, and particularly the aquifers in West Texas and Arizona are going to be sucked dry.
