And I really appreciate that. So I'm going to turn over the news now to Owen and Marcella. I don't know whose story is starting first, but you two can take it away.

Chapter 3: What is Hillary Clinton's stance on immigration during the Munich panel?
It was wonderful. Even the Europeans loved it, which is kind of amazing. The main thing is that he outlined how great Europe used to be and talking about the Sistine Chapel, talking about all the great discoveries and everything else that Europe has done. So he laid it out. He paced and led them, not necessarily talking down to them, but in a high ground maneuver
We'll go into it, but the main thing is, he said, we in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West's managed decline. Basically a red line. that this has to stop. He talked about immigration, how the US opened its borders to immigration and how Europe has opened its borders to immigration because we're good people. We want to help.
We feel the plight of all these people. but at the same time we have to um secure our borders secure our our livelihood secure our culture and that's basically what he said that we have to reverse that that yes he understands europe opened its borders but at the same time they must also be closed now so that it can be restored back to the greatness that it was and he outlined how
Europe and America work together to end World War II. And that can again happen. So I'll open it to everybody. Erica, what are your thoughts?
You know, I loved how he he pointed out, like he tried to highlight to them what their greatness was and the nation that they were, and that this is a chosen decline, right? So it's a chosen decline. So he's saying like, you can keep going on this path. We're not going to get you out of it.
Or you can remember what you were and where you came from and reminded them that what they say, like we were How did he put it? We were like born out of them. So like we were like a sister or a brother to them. I forget the exact word.
I think he said we'd always be a child of Europe.
a child of Europe. And I love that because it was like some kind of being humble and saying like, we're a child of Europe, but that was because we shared the same values and we were, you know, the same morality and things like that. Now they've chosen another path. So they're saying like, you can go that way. We'll be sad, or you can regain what you had and, and take it back. And,
then we can continue working together. And I think it was a good reminder. And I think that the people in there that were applauding were like, yeah, you know, we miss what we had too. And we do want it back and we see the decay and the decline. And I don't know, I felt like it was a message of hope, but it was strong and it was really putting the ball in their court.

Chapter 4: What controversial remarks did Gavin Newsom make at the Munich conference?
And Marcela mentioned how the speech was aspirational and not pointing down at them, right?
been um talking down to them it was all about if we rise you rise we all rise together so uh yeah marco rubio ended up being a fantastic uh representative for america and the new america the old america we had all the representatives but for tony remember tony blinken wasn't he the secretary of state compared tony blinken to Marco Rubio. I mean, it's amazing the contrast.
So that's what I see with this. Yeah.
I was going to say something similar just about it being like a positive reframe of Trump's statements about Europe, because I think Trump has taken more of a negative stance in terms of you know, bashing them about all the things they're doing wrong.
And, um, the very first statement that the person interviewing Ruby after the speech said was he thought their reaction was that it was a very reassuring speech, that it was like a reassurance that we're on the same side and we're going to be working together. And I think that's probably a response to Trump sort of, you know, saying you guys are on a bad path doing bad things and, um,
that we're not following and we're not going to be part of this and you guys got to do things on your own and defend yourselves and do all these other things and i think rubio you know i didn't hear him like walk any of that back but i but at the same time he kind of turned it into a positive frame so it was a very well written speech and um you know i think he put a a better picture on it but still didn't pull any punches like he talked about how globalism was a huge mistake that
you know, getting rid of the national view and trying to go to this global rules-based order or whatever it was, was a huge mistake. And exporting all our manufacturing and our supply chains to our enemies and rivals was a huge mistake. So he, he hit all those points, but he also just had enough positive in there that said, you know, we need to work together and turn this around basically.
And so it was really a really well-written speech. I liked it a lot.
One quote that he said, I don't know if he said exactly like this, but it was quoted like this, that the old world is gone. He said that the old world is gone. And that, I made a little meme of it because that's what I call the speech, the old world is gone. It used to be, excuse me, the old world order is gone. Old world order.

Chapter 5: What challenges do Democrats face with their current leadership?
So hearing Rubio speak through this leftist news sources allows them to hear these ideas that they're not usually listening to. So it's kind of like South Korea playing democracy,
stories in north korea you know i don't want to compare the two but it's it feels like that so i i think that's what's really going to help is getting the ball rolling with the european people yeah it's like uh rubio is like a little starlink dropping down into there like giving you some information you might not know yes it's like starlink in iran or something like that
right well you guys make sure you check that out it was great it was great so on on this note we go next to the next story unless owen has his stories ready but the next one i love it's basically the next few stories are going to be the comparison the juxtaposition of here's rubio here's what he's presenting and then comes hillary
She gets roasted in Munich because from the Czech prime minister roasts her because of what she says. He is trying to speak and she interrupts him. They're on a panel. And you must watch the video because I make no justice of it. You have to watch the Hillary video of her getting roasted. But he says to her, first, I think... You don't like Trump.
So let me speak and let me tell you the issues that I have. And basically what he was outlining is that the reason Trump has had to have a strong border, strong, just basically strong everything is because the previous administrations have allowed all this to happen. Basically, I'm paraphrasing what he's saying. And he is Peter Machinka, which I probably mispronounce.
Every Czech person over there is like, no, Marcela, that's not right. And so sorry for my Czech. By the way, Czech Republic did not allow me into their country. But anyways, long story. They didn't allow you in? No, they didn't. But I'll go into that one day.
so they were like maybe now they would um you know this is absolutely true clinton said clinton actually agreed that there is issues with immigration and that immigration does need to be reinforced immigration law but that it has to be done in a better way, in a more sweet, what was her word? It's gone to compassionate. That's exactly what it was. You know it.
And then she said that, yes, there needs to be like a wall, a secure wall, some kind of thing like that to secure the borders.
She agreed with him, but basically he called her out on her wokeness and on the fact that the wokeness that pushed this country to this level of chaos, I would say, or destruction, is the reason why Trump has to be a straightaway because he's trying to redo everything and reform everything. So there you are.

Chapter 6: How does AOC's wealth tax proposal fit into the current political landscape?
He's over with that. And that's what meant that I think that he's the most base person in their party that is showing us that we have to reconcile now. We have to work our way through. And that's what Marco is doing with his speech, right? It's like unite together and we can be invincible. And there's nothing that can stop us. So that's it.
Some people were commenting that this is for the midterms, that basically Hillary is trying to claw herself back, like she's Gollum or something. She's crawling herself back into a position that's more moderate.
so that people are like oh yeah immigration humane we must do it but you still believe in it so this kind of positioning how one said into this idea that you can have it um in the same realm we have so this is all a juxtaposition i'm showing you rubio i started with rubio there's a reason then we go to hillary now we go to newsome newsome uh went in munich
mr ken um barbie ken um he went to munich and he spilled his ick into munich he didn't necessarily call federal agents and ice nazis but basically that's kind of what he said he didn't use the word nazi so everybody don't think he used it but he told um
In an interview, he goes, I want to remember, this is his words, I want to remember all those images of masked men, the secret police, something familiar in Germany. Those first images came out of my state, the second largest city of the United States of America. We saw 4,000 National Guard federalized for the first time. We've never seen anything like this. 700 active duty Marines.
sent not overseas but to the second largest city in the United States of America, militarizing the streets of my city. He went to that level of using the visual, as Scott would tell us, visuals are so important, as well as fear in persuasion.
But the key thing is he tries to skirt the whole idea of calling the federal agents and the National Guard Nazis by calling it out as, oh, this reminds me of Germany and secret police. Again, going into this is the old way of thinking. This is what they always try to do. They have nothing to offer us. So they go in to use visuals, to use fear in order to get support.
And it's interesting that we have Rubio going to Munich with a message of hope, with a message of actually doing something and reversing the destruction. And then we have Hillary trying to bring it down and we have Newsom. with actually no ideas to bring to the table. It's not like they have something to say, hey, your policies are this. They don't talk policy. They only talk fear.
And to me, that was interesting. And again, going back to the same theme, the reason why Los Angeles needed all these national guards is because Los Angeles is out of control. It's the, basically the Democrats cost the situation and here comes Trump trying to correct it. And the reason why it had to be such a strong showing, like he said, this has never been done before.

Chapter 7: What are the implications of drone warfare in the Ukraine conflict?
So I hear Hillary saying this and I hear Newsom saying that, but they just look so weak now, right? They all look so pathetic now. They don't have any power, nothing behind them anymore. And just like, yeah, you're starting to scare women and well, not just women.
all kinds of people scared him into action like when marcelo was saying and um and the only way that we're going to stop that is by ridicule them we had to ridicule them as much as possible make fun of them um not take him seriously anymore that's what i'm saying like uh the way that guy talked to hillary he just like i only didn't take you seriously anymore it wasn't like oh hillary's gonna kill me no no nobody's scared of hillary anymore
And I would point out that they're dragging out Hillary, right? And they're dragging out Obama. They're bringing out these people that are no longer active in politics. And to me, that's a clear sign that they have no bench. They have no new blood. They have nobody. Yeah, Newsom and Whitmer are supposedly probably trying to run for president, but other than
them and even they are you know people who've been around a long time it's not a new voice it's not anybody new and um it just seems like they don't have anybody and um especially when they bring people out like hillary and even biden they've dragged them out for a couple things like it's like they don't have
Anybody and they keep trying to bring out these voices that I don't think anyone wants to listen to on either side. I don't think the Democrats want to hear from Hillary. I don't think they want to hear from Kamala. I don't think they want to hear from Biden, but they keep putting them in front of microphones because they don't have anything better.
I feel like we did hear from Kamala there when I got to hear AOC with her word salad.
That's our next story.
I was going to say, sure, Marcella, just like drive the knife in further. We had to do, you know, Hillary and Newsom. Now let's just top it off.
somebody mentioned aoc and what were on the bench just on the bench i want to say that um you know they have no bench and our bench is like so deep right we have uh so many people with we don't even know what to do with so many people can be that can be president you know and also like everybody calm down like trump's not running again like this trump derangement syndrome like just stop he's out of here in a few years so

Chapter 8: What corruption issues are emerging in the Ukraine war?
That was the vibes I got.
They definitely didn't read the book before class.
Yeah, they did not do their homework.
Again, it was more opportunities, more moments, right, to capture for the campaign. This is amazing. It's just the stage was set perfectly to capture all this. I just find it hard to believe.
Like, these are issues that have been in the news, like, all the time for years. And, like...
anybody that's in politics you would think would be very well aware of the whole situation in taiwan and have come up with some kind of position on it and the same thing with ukraine it's like how can you not you know what position on ukraine this is a very good example right that when you know what you want and you have a very a clear stated position it's very easy to articulate it even if you are not a master speaker but if you don't know who are is in the audience you know because these people
normally speak to audiences right so they want to see who to talk to who they have to agree with um and so free palestine and and maybe not and they always like doing that right so they always have to be so careful and they just lose it when they get overwhelmed with their lies.
There's so many lies that they have to keep together because when you have common sense, it's so easy to explain anything to anybody, right? It's just clear.
Yeah, it's kind of blew me away in this case because Palestine or Gaza, that is a controversial issue.
