"Advocating not publishing your book. Yeah, yeah, Simon and Schuster was the one. I found a publisher who was willing to do it. It was a smaller publisher at Nashville, post hill press. Anthony is a card he's the owner there. Super great guy. But his only resource of getting books out is through Simon and Schuster is the distributor. And once they cut him off and said, nope, not happening. Not doing it, not putting it on. Amazon, we're not printing it. We're not doing anything. He was stuck. And he felt horrible. And I still appreciate him. I like him because he hooked me up. I had a couple other people went and went in the rights to it. We went with daily wire because I thought if Amazon shuts us down or for anybody else, at least they have some outlets to get it out. Doesn't mean I agree with everything they do or say either, but at least they have outlets to get it out. Because since then, I've had major right wing or conservative people and stations that won't touch this. That said all the stuff before until the truth came out, and they won't touch me now. And that was with Ben Shapiro's crew asking them, do us a favor. They do this back and forth all the time with each other, helping each other out. And when even through their requests several times, they were denied because they just didn't want to touch it. But you're saying it, but Ben Shapiro's daily wire folks are the ones who publish this. Yes. You know who else he's picked up to that got canceled by Hollywood? Was Josh Holly? Gina kafar. She was in The Mandalorian. Yeah. I mean, again, it's one of those things. You know, and people are going to say, well, Ben's right wing. He's this, he's that, you know what? I think we've lost the ability in this country to have a conversation to have uncomfortable conversations and have divergent points of view. And still, when you get done, be a friend, go out and have a cup of coffee or a beer or a drink or go to dinner and stuff. You know, Steve and I have talked about this. We both have friends that are as far one side of the spectrum as we are politically, but you know what?

"Had a show one more segment with AJ rice the author of the woking dead from post hill press one 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo one 8 6 6 5 O 5 four 6 two 6 Andrew calls in from Chicago good evening Andrew. I can't believe that your guest was able to get his book published because it makes too much damn sense. There are publishers out there who will publish such things. Well, he found one. Thank God. Yeah. Regnery is another one. There are several. So I'm just wondering, you know, I grew up in a household. I'm 62 years old. I grew up in a household with 5 sisters and one bathroom. And we only had four television stations and we listened to the radio. At times were simpler. And I'm wondering if your guests thinks this because I'm seeing it in my kids. And that I was raised in a pretty strict family, good rules, strict parents, and we turned down a lot okay. And I'm seeing that I raised our kids the same way. And I'm just wondering if you feel that raising of kids from our generation is a cyclical thing and that those core values will come back because it's a mess the way things are right now. It is a mess. And I don't know if it's cyclical. I hope it is. You thought that AJ? Well, look, I've got, you know, I'm a millennial, and I've got I've got a child under the age of one, okay? And they apparently call this generation generation alpha. And, you know, a lot of millennials that have boomer parents. You can sort of draw a direct line from the greatest generation to the boomers to the millennials. And there is some continuity there. There is. It's not just size. There's a certain work ethic that's there. There's a lack of alienation that's there. And look, I run a company of marketing company and it's amazing when I get resumes and I interview people, I can kind of tell without even seeing the date that they were born, where when and where they were born. And, you know, there's sort of this bright line. I hate to say it, but I can kind of tell. It's a cultural thing. Whether or not someone can handle criticism without falling apart. Yeah, I mean, the same generation, the same generation that's produced all of these woke young people also produced our American military. So it isn't just age. Correct. Correct. One of the reasons I wrote the book and I've worked with so many authors and people over the years as their publicist was nobody wants a coach that hasn't played the game. So I've kind of gone through this process now and I've learned a lot and one of the things that I sort of gravitate towards is looking for leadership without, you know, in different things, not just in a military history and politics and I feel that there is some leadership lacking in the younger generation right now in the sense that they're kind of lost. They're having a hard time being authentically human. Because they do have the devices, like I talked about earlier, they've been sort of bombarded by Black Lives Matter and the me too movement, which has confused them. The transgender movement has really confused them. A lot of the people that they deal with on a daily basis that are supposed to be the sort of purveyor of authority, especially in a lot of these public schools, they themselves are groomers or they themselves are sort of tenured protected left wing people. So certain opinions at certain aspects of history are no longer getting taught. So, I mean, I do worry about that. Right? I mean, we have sports. Things that are being erased, Columbus days coming up. Use it as a litmus test on what are the teachers going to tell your kids in school for Columbus day. That should really be the litmus test. At least in October. And don't have any data about what it is. It's almost certainly going to be that it's indigenous people's day. All right, Harry in Harry listens to Katie KA in Pittsburgh, a good evening Harry. Yeah, shower you, sir. Fine, thank you. Okay, I wanted to agree with your guests so hardly I think control the schools, it's what's either going to save this country or doom it. If we can get a red wave and take back the House and the Senate and then get the CRT and the 1619 Project and like you said, the transgender things out of the schools and teach kids fundamentals and basics, they'll have a chance. But the things that you and I did growing up that we took for granted, changing breaks on the car, doing your own tune up, replacing a faucet washer, or putting in a new water heater. That certain group, they have no skills in actual hands on work. And if it doesn't go right for them the first time, they threw up their hands and cry. There was a certain amount of that. I thought AJ well, wasn't it Thomas saw, who said there's too many people going to college? I mean, look. Joe Biden with an executive order is trying to bail out college loans. Well, which loans are you trying to bail out? Are they a bunch of veterinary technicians or people that are radiologists or actually got to a degree in something that they were able to make money immediately and pay off their loans? No, it's not those people. It's the people that made your day in underwater basket weaving. And they're sitting around on the floors of the Barnes and nobles of the world with their Bernie Sanders tattoos on their forehead, complaining that the government needs to bail them out for the ridiculous woke studies degree. Now, absolutely. This was a heck of a book. AJ rice has written the woking dead from a post hill press subtitled how societies Vogue virus destroys our culture, but that is not to say that all is lost, all is being lost, but it can be turned around, and each of us can do our part. We'll continue, I'll take your calls when we come back with more on the Jimbo hadn't show one 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo in just a moment.

"Welcome back to the Jimbo hadn't show one 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo one 8 6 6 5 O 5 four 6 two 6 with AJ rice. Who is the author of The Walking Dead from post hill press? And our number again one 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo one 8 6 6 5 O 5 four 6 two 6 we should be able to get calls on. It may be a painful process from time to time, but we should be able to get you on. Except the way it appears. Incidentally, if you missed any of tonight's show or would like to hear some of our previous shows, be sure to check out the Jimbo head and show on Apple podcasts or wherever you look for a podcast. Now, AJ, let's talk about some of the folks that who come up in the book, The Walking Dead. It's hard for me to imagine Joe Biden as being in charge of all of this or in charge of anything besides keeping his pants dry, so how does he fit into all of this? Well, I mean, he is the reanimated corpse. He's the leader of The Walking Dead. He, I mean, is he in charge? I mean, he kind of shuffles about like a meat puppet. There's definitely people putting things in front of him to read. And he'll read anything that's in the teleprompter. I'd like to drill down on the Philadelphia speech. I'm from Philadelphia. I don't appreciate him going to my city using the marines. Using marines as props for God's sake. And also charging charging that speech and the travel to and from Philadelphia to the taxpayers. As we pointed out before in this program, when you see a political rally or a political convention, the political party of that particular president pays for the costs involved. For what is built as a national presidential address, we pay for it. And that diatribe was billed as a national presidential address. So go ahead. And look, the marines, the marines were the marines were founded in Philadelphia and a bar, the con tavern. So it was a sad display. What I noticed is they're getting desperate, The Walking Dead are getting desperate because I do believe this is the tyranny of the minority. I don't think they're in the majority. They do control the engines of propaganda, but they're not, I just don't think regular run of the mill people want to be told that western civilization has to go. And that the country was founded by racists and white people are this and black people are that. The regular people, most of politics takes place between the 40 yard lines. So when you get this crazy hyperbolic, I mean, the left has gone from calling us alt right to deplorables to ultra maga. Now we're semi fascists by November, we're going to be Mussolini with a bowl of spaghetti. I mean, that's where we're going to be at. It reminds me Jimbo of when Gore Vidal tried calling William F. Buckley junior a crypto fascist on live television. He was ready to basically take him out. And now this isn't Trump. This isn't the wild man from queens. This is one of the most sophisticated conservative of the last hundred years. And there they are in the 60s, calling Gore Vidal calling way meth Buckley junior a fascist on television. Yeah, and Buckley Buckley angry because at least he had served the nation in uniform, which it was a lot of gore but I could say, we have a call from mat or an eastern North Carolina good evening mad. Jim, how are you today? I'm fine. Thank you. Very good. I want to compliment AJ rice. I believe you can hear me. Yes, you're on the radio, Matt, please proceed. The radio's author. I know it's off. Just keep talking. We're hearing you. Go ahead. Oh, I'm sorry. Like right now. Go ahead, sir. Hey, dropped. Oh, okay. We lost them. Or we lost him, whichever. One of the things Jim that I noticed in the last couple of weeks was you had the death of these two figures. Gag Gorbachev and Queen Elizabeth. And certain aspects of the media was super upset about Gorbachev going. And then some of these same people once Queen Elizabeth dies. They start attacking this woman. And who are these people? These are The Walking Dead and what are they doing? What are they saying about this woman? This woman had fought the Nazis. This woman, there was a staunch cold warrior, their attacking her as a vestige of white supremacy and colonialism and that she that her family stole the riches of the third world off the backs of brown and black people. They could not resist the woking dead could not resist to throw shade at her. But when you really think about it, Jim, the English speaking world, you know, the house of Windsor should basically say to the world you're welcome. Because the English speaking world, which includes Australia, Canada, the United States, have given more of their wealth away and medicine and commerce and education

"Welcome back to the Jim bohannon show at one 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo, one 8 6 6 5 O 5 four 6 two 6 AJ rice has written the woking dead from post hill press and it takes a look at just exactly what we've been facing now and not just recently it's come to a head recently, but back many, many years. Steve and Santa Cruz, California good evening. Thanks for taking my call. Hi, Jim. I'm gentlemen. Yes. You know, I just wanted to I just wanted to call and say this. With all the intrigue of who's sabotaging America, I don't think enough is being said about the former USSR. For example, your guests mentioned that the USSR was founded by killing the Tsar, et cetera and their vicious. And I'm saying they spend more money, sabotaging us and infiltrating us than they do. On weaponry. Well, so yeah, the Soviet Union's been gone now for 31 years, but yeah, it's if you believe that. I don't believe that. And so what do you mean? The Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. I mean, Russia graduate is no great improvement, but the Soviet Union trust me is gone. But when they were going under and when they dissolved, they didn't bring in their spies that were stationed in America. They kept them here. They kept their editors. They kept their police chiefs. They kept their judges, they kept their politicians. Well, to the extent that they had police chiefs and judges, I daresay they may have, but suffice it to say that a lot of the bad that was part of the Soviet Union extends to the bad that is in Russia. That's true. I think they've been in our presidency a few times. Well, I don't think you'd better be all out full bore Kremlin debates. I think you've had a lot of people who think that we're heading towards some socialist Paradise, but I'll defer to AJ. Yeah, well, look, they, there are some similar tactics, right? So Putin's ex KGB. When you talk about the sort of tactics of the KGB, the tactics of many, many, many authoritarian states. You have to ask yourself, what is the end goal of locust? General spaulding gives me a blurb for the book, air force general. He says if China loves anything that makes America weaker, I've got to assume Putin and Russia feel the same. I definitely know North Korea and Iran also probably feel the same. So you've got authoritarian states that look at us and if they see weakness, they're smiling. It's why China does its best to placate multinational corporations that push wokeness. They love Disney. They love that Mulan movie, which was a propaganda vote. They love when LeBron James comes to China to promote space jam two. Right? So there is an overlap there. Absolutely. And you know, I tell people you can vote with your wallet. But I think some of these corporations have made a calculation. That they're willing to give up the audience of this show and Jimbo and me, because they've got 1.3 billion Chinese that can be their customers. So that is what we're dealing with now. China is powerful in the way that it can sort of throw its weight around as a customer for what are supposedly American companies. Supposedly. Watch the way Coca-Cola acts. Nike acts, they don't Google. They don't behave like American companies. No, I thoroughly agree. I mean, some of the biggest prostitutes in America are corporate leaders, I long for the good old days of corporate leaders who were always accused of being hardcore capitalists, whatever happened to them. Sure, well, look, I see The Walking Dead. They're in these corporations. Are they in the boardroom or the CEOs? Maybe some of them yes. But it's the middle management where the terror comes from. These are the people that are in Netflix's parking lot, having an intifada. That's who's there. These are the people that are saying, you better dump Joe Rogan, you better do what Neil Young. What Neil Young says or else? So now up till this point. What is the Orioles, by the way? What is the or else aside from not getting invited to the right cocktail parties? I mean, you know, they could tell me or else and I would say, you know, why don't you just stick it somewhere? I don't care about your or else. I don't care about you. I don't care about your opinion. Sure. I'm just curious. What is the overwhelming influence? Oh, all is lost. These middle managers are opposed to it. The hell with them. Correct. But look, the tyranny of the middle management is going on everywhere. I mean, Trump was impeached twice because of the middle man. The middle management and the executive branch that sit there for 30 years, listening in on phone calls, writing down stuff. If he ever gets back in The White House, you know, he's going to have to probably strip mine. It's not just replacing obviously the fish rot from the head, but it's not just replacing cabinet secretaries anymore. They're going to have to, you're going to have to strip mine all the way down like ten layers. Because the radicals are in that area, that middle management area that we're talking about here. It doesn't matter whether it's the NFL, ESPN, The White House, Netflix, it doesn't matter. What I find interesting, Jim about the Netflix thing is, here's Dave Chappelle, right? He's a black guy born in D.C.. He's a Democrat. And he's asking some simple questions. He wants to know why the LGBTQ people got their rights at 40 seconds. And it's taken black people hundreds of years. It's a very simple question. Apparently you're not allowed to ask. Apparently, yes. That would seem to be the case. And again, you get into this thing called cancel culture. We'll talk some more about that. AJ rice is our guest author of the woking dead. How societies Vogue virus destroys our culture and is published by post hill press and we'll continue our discussion right here on the Jimbo hadn't show. All kinds of stuff in here and as I said earlier, this goes back more than just say the last ten or 15 years. It goes back a good many years.

"Talks and we're joined in this portion of the program by AJ rice, who is the CEO of the public public relations. A premier communications firm in the nation's capital and also a man with the pretty firm thoughts about what's happening in this country right now. Hence his new book, the woking, dead, how societies Vogue virus destroys our cultures, published by post hill press and AJ thank you for being with us. Jim bow, it is really an honor to be here. I met you many moons ago when I was a puppy. I believe at a talkers convention, so really it's an honor, sir. Well, thank you. Broadcasting legend. Your mighty kind and I appreciate that AJ. Who exactly are the woking dead on the cover of the book is this hand reaching out from the ground like The Walking Dead I suppose, or the like, who would you describe as The Walking Dead? Well, that's Nancy Pelosi's hand. You don't recognize it? No. No, I didn't. I guess the lack of the lack of makeup and the dirt on the wrist there. It was hard to recognize. That's right. So we have been fighting political correctness and the nanny state for some time. And we've always had it. It's always been there It's sort of spins up every decade or so. And then it gets kind of pushed back down. We are fighting it. We're fighting the Murphy Brown battalions, the pantsuit battalions in the 90s that we're trying to regulate our speech then and be PC. There were more people in the game though pushing back on this on the attack on the language. There were more First Amendment absolutists back then. But The Walking Dead as it sort of constituted now is much more nefarious and it's everywhere. A lot of it comes in the form of cancel culture and the sort of social justice warriors that are trying to change really or tear down, I should say, western civilization, so you've got the 1619 Project. You've got critical race theory, you have what's going on on college campuses and what used to be only on college campuses now, we've got stuff being taught to kindergartners that you used to have to go into some kind of postmodern philosophy class to hear. You know, there's things that are happening with the LGBTQ community that are attacking and sort of trying to cancel people if they have a differing opinion. So The Walking Dead are everywhere. They're in the NBA. They're in Nike either in Disney. And one of the reasons I wrote the book is because I could see that the youth, and I'm a millennial, I'm a geriatric millennial, but a millennial, nonetheless, Gen Z in particular, which is the generation after us, they're being captured by this. They're totally being captured. Jimbo, they already had a hard time communicating. I mean, this is the generation that was born with a smartphone in their hand. I mean, I could remember a VCR and a pager. I can go back that far, at least, right? Oh yeah. So yeah, so that's one of the reasons I wrote it. It's a cultural virus. It's a Vogue virus. I do believe there's an expiration date on it. But the book, we try to have some fun, there's vignettes in the book. We poke fun at a lot of different aspects of where this stuff pops up. Yeah. And you talk about how it's gotten worse. Idaho wonder that it's gotten worse. You've had another generation who's been put through the indoctrination factory. I mean, if we continue at this rate and allow our young people to continue going through the indoctrination factory, there won't be many of you and me left in a few more years. Correct. And when people ask me where did this come from? I mean, it didn't come from the 90s. This is been part of the sort of long march through the institutions that really predates World War I. You had trendy Marxism show up on America's shores. And they surveyed a landscape a hundred years ago and they kind of dawned on them that they're not going to get a worker's revolution from a bunch of plumbers, longshoremen, lumberjacks, carpenters, bricklayers, and they needed different foot soldiers. They needed different people to sort of carry their message out because they weren't going to no matter what they thought they was going to happen with unions. And no matter how many socialists they thought they could maybe get elected, it wasn't going to happen here the way it did with the romanovs being murdered and overthrown to create the USSR. So where did they look? Well, they looked at academia. They looked at the media. They looked at the theater districts and the entertainment industry, which eventually beyond Broadway became Hollywood and silent pictures. And they found home in the Democrat party with everyone from Margaret Sanger to Woodrow Wilson. And if you fast forward a hundred years, Jimbo, I mean, these are the same villains we're fighting now. The same crew, the only difference is they have big tech now, which kind of acts as a force field for them. It kind of acts as their midair refueling tanker. It gives them the ability to deplatform, demonetize, shadow ban, a hundred years ago, if you wanted to censor Twain or Hemingway or the Bible or Graham Greene or whoever, it took a lot of effort to do that, you know? And even a hundred years ago, the push against some literature that was out there was mostly coming from religious groups that found certain things to libertine for the times

"Galvin, the author of a few bad men from post hill press. Subtitled the true story of U.S. Marines ambushed in Afghanistan and betrayed now nobody in Washington in an official capacity said we're upset with these troops for not doing their duty and getting shot and killed. They had a rationale what was that rationale well, the only way you could explain it is that they didn't want this to happen. As another data point besides our ambush was 6 months earlier, right after the NATO rules of engagement had gone into effect in eastern Afghan and all of Afghanistan, but there was a colonel the same colonel we worked for and he reported to major general Kearney, who used the commander of all special operations forces in the entire Middle East, well, this green beret team, army, U.S. Army green blaze were out on an approved capture kill mission of the terrorist who was a suicide, it was a facilitator of suicide bombers. And they positively identified him. This is in late 2006. On an approved capture kill mission they took one shot from sniper F what hit him in the head and that's it. They didn't do anything else. In the U.S. Army criminal investigative division went in, they even said it was a clean shoot. The major general Kearney had his investigating officer, charge him with negligent homicide, the same charge that that same investigating officer didn't came out during his air force colonel why you'd have an air force colonel investigating green bray teams and marine raiders is defies logic. But when the outcome is what you particularly want and that's a charge these guys with negligent homicide, then it makes a little bit more sense. And does set some of the backdrop. Some things had occurred before this. There was the 5th investigation of the pat Tillman case, and as your listeners probably remember, they covered Corporal pat Tillman in a U.S. Army ranger former National Football League champion. He went to war, died as a result of friendly fire. They covered it up. So this is Mary Tillman demanded to know the truth and their ongoing there on their 5th investigation. Be able to say like, well, we can't have a repeat of this in the Marine Corps had similar situation in cases in Afghanistan with Fallujah. Hadith, harmonia, there was three in a row of different war crimes allegations where civilians were killed. So the result of all this was we need to instead of under investigate, we will over investigate, we will do this virtue signaling, throw the book at them and show that I would never do that. We're going to point the finger into the critic. And that's going to make us look good because we're making sure that as U.S. Army colonel John Nicholas, Nicholson said, first, do no harm in a lot of harm was done. I wouldn't do that. He gave us speech to The Pentagon press corps using those exact words. We've done a lot of harm to the people referring to us. That's how people got promoted. This idea of looking good to whom. I'm not interested in looking good to a lot of people. Right. That's a good point. The to whom is to the senior military and the politicians that at that point, they figured out, hey, let's use this count on insurgency strategy. And my question is, Jim, if we've been implementing that since 2006, this winning hearts and minds didn't work, shouldn't there be some consequences or accountability shouldn't these generals who lied before Congress and continue to say the metrics are showing this is successful. They even were doing it a year ago, Jim, to you, me and all your listeners by saying that they may lose mazar E Sharif or one or two other cities, but the Afghan national army will hold these major cities in the balance of power in Afghanistan. Did any of that? Come to know. Not only was it a lie last year, it was a lie for over a decade. They knew this advise and assist mission with Afghan national army was an abject failure and they continued to testify that we need to stay the course invest continue to make these investments in all succeed, but it never did and they knew it. And I was there on multiple deployments and I saw how it's a joke, how these the facts in these cases are being diluted in the truth is being distorted to give to Congress and say this is winning when we knew it was not winning. And we are going to sell to people. The troops informed, let's say from the field grade major and lieutenant colonels down through the ranks where they informed that they could possibly face charges of negligent homicide in doing their duty in our time frame, yes and no. So yes, they let us know that if there is civilian casualties, you can. So but it didn't stop us from going out and doing our jobs. After our case and the green break 6 months prior, people became very hesitant. And that's what got us into the quagmire of where senior commanders at the tactical level. I'm talking lieutenant colonel and colonels. They didn't have any incentive to leave the wires. And many of

"Based it on a real power struggle in the Chinese government, but it takes place in the past. I don't comment on the current regime. So who knows? But clearly, as I said at the beginning, any story involving an American aiding the defection of the Chinese military leader probably isn't looked on kindly, but the Chinese government doesn't come after me anytime soon. You have a great gift for understatement. I daresay. Your thoughts about nationalism in China today, for example, I can not only that we had, of course, this threat to shoot down the jet carrying the House speaker. But do you go back a few years and I can remember when there was another flare up over Taiwan and a Chinese general at the time openly speculated in the media that he didn't think the United States would be interested in having a missile lobbed into Los Angeles. I mean, this kind of rhetoric is really not that new. Yes. At the risk of founding academic and going on a little too long, I'll try to share my views which are a little nuanced.

You were a teacher in a top university in Beijing, is that right? Yes, I started by time in China, studying Chinese and teaching at a university, and I worked in business in China for many years, about 20 years. But you're no longer there, I would gather. In fact, I understand you're calling in tonight from Japan and we'll talk a bit about more about that. I'm calling it from Tokyo. I left a little post COVID. I left late in late 2020, not China. Because I could imagine that the leadership of the Chinese government might not be thrilled by the book China hand. Well, there are several reasons I am using a pseudonym and I wouldn't say the book, the book is not, I wouldn't say anti China at all, but of course anytime you're writing a book about the defection of the top Chinese military officer, you could imagine they might not like it. So I'm not expecting the book to be sold in Beijing anytime soon. Not anytime soon, I would daresay. All right, before we get into the book and what it might say about China because after all novels can be fact based or not, but of course they don't have to be there. Their works of fiction. But I'm curious how the Japanese media are carrying the story of the House speaker Nancy Pelosi who visit to Taiwan. Well, I wouldn't say I try to read the media from all over the world, but especially the U.S. and Japan and China. I wouldn't say that the Japanese coverage is all too different from the coverage in the U.S. and what I mean by that is I think you see two sides to the story. On the one hand, as you hear from some of the press in the U.S., Japan, historically, has been a very pacifist, very concerned about confrontation. They don't certainly don't want conflict with China. They've had a very small self defense force ever since World War II. And I think the default post World War II for Japan has been to avoid confrontation. On the other end, so you hear that in part of the media like the U.S. trying to stir up stir up trouble that's going to potentially draw Japan to a larger conflict. On the other hand, you increasingly have a point of view in Japan that as China has gotten wealthier, stronger. They've started to throw their weight around a lot and Japan is threatened and Japan like any normal country needs to have a normal normal sized military needs to be able to defend itself. And can't allow China to be bullying whether it's Taiwan or Japan as well because Japan is very aware that they have some territorial disputes with China as well. And China threatens to take whether it's this intact islands or occasionally they even mentioned Okinawa. So yeah, I think you do here two sides, but increasingly the Japanese sort of stand with the U.S. when it comes to standing up to perceived Chinese aggression. Now, technologically, it would take Japan maybe a couple of months to build a nuclear weapon. I mean, it's not like this is any major challenge to them that the Genie is out of the bottle and the Chinese and the Japanese rather are as the technologically developed as any society on the planet. I don't know the extent of which again you've kept track of that, but of course following World War II a pacifism was in fact written into the Japanese constitution. We're not going to let the spirit of bushido and the harsh militarism take control again in this country. I can easily see that changing. Especially if they were to take the view that they can't really depend on the United States necessarily. I think that's exactly right. And I can't predict how it's going to play out, but there's definitely been discussion about developing nuclear weapons. As you said, my understanding if they could develop them very, very quickly, they have civilian nuclear power and they have the stockpiles of uranium and so on that could be used for the weapons. So it's just a matter of them making the decision to do so and I can't predict whether it will happen, but clearly perceived Chinese bullying China is a major nuclear power pushes them towards problem nuclear weapons potentially. I could certainly see that happening as well. What did you teach in China? I just thought I had just graduated from college. And I just taught English. It was a very, it was one of the top universities, but I was teaching, I'll say American society and politics and other topics basically in English. It was English based reading of different news and things like that. And in terms of the average Chinese student, how did they take to an American professor? I'm just curious. Well, you know, China is a country like any other. And you have all types. And I really tried to capture this in my book. And what I would say is when I was there, we got to keep in mind that I taught about 2025 years ago and China at that point was much poorer than it is today. Per CAPiTA income was under a thousand U.S. dollars per year. The country was still about 70% rural. So literally, probably 50, 60% of my students were basically fresh off of a farm. They were a bit intimidated, I think, by seeing foreigners, sometimes for the first time, they were generally fairly shy, frankly, many were pretty malnourished. And so there was definitely a lot of curiosity from the average student, but also a little bit of fear. I should also say that at the particular school where I taught, which is kind of the basis for the school in the book. It was a school for future diplomats and frankly spies. There was definitely kind of a lot of indoctrination that went on a lot of so called patriotic education. And that also made its way in. But I would say back then, you definitely had a lot of curiosity and mixed views. I would say though today, after really 25, 30 years of very strong patriotic education, they are definitely much more nationalist nationalistic than they used to be. And I think that's one of the reasons there is real danger when you see Pelosi visiting Taiwan or some of these perceived provocations by the U.S., the average Chinese would probably choose to go to war. They're very militaristic and nationalistic at this point. You brought up Japan a few minutes ago and I do see parallels to Japan prior to World War II. So I'm not predicting a war, but I do think the U.S. needs to be very careful because the level of nationalism has written a lot and Chinese definitely believe that Taiwan is an integral part of China and they would go to war over that. And we just need to be aware that that is something we're playing with. And they need to be aware that knuckles dragging misfits shouldn't be allowed to represent a country in terms of shooting down a high elected official from another country. If they had even understand what the hell is an elected official. All right, stay with us more to come here with our guests, Scott, space, and his new book China hand.

Actions include deploying patrol boats, drones, and helicopters on the south shore, along with more public outreach. State parks are also boosting lifeguards at ocean beaches by 25% by having them work overtime. At least 5 people have been bitten by sharks and Long Island waters in recent weeks. The queen's bus rider assaulted in an alleged anti white crime by three African American women told the New York Post that one of her attackers accused her of being a fan of former president Donald Trump before the assailants bashed her on the head. The 57 year old grandmother of 5 was left bleeding after she was attacked July 9th while riding the city bus and attacked being investigated by the NYPD's hate crime task force. The victim says, quote, before they hit me, the girl with the green hair said you probably like Trump. Don't you? She responded, I love him.

going to be talking about this situation tonight with your calls at one 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo one 8 6 6 5 O 5 four 6 two 6 and with Harlan ullman senior adviser at the Atlantic council and also author of the book the 5th horseman which is to say the least apocalyptic look at things that might be happening in this world of our mister omen thank you for being with us tonight Long time It has been a while for those who might not have been around the last time for those who are not familiar with the Atlantic council and the website Atlantic council dot org what is it The 11 council was a nonpartisan think tank that is out to advance an American leadership in the world And it is probably one of the premier think tanks and not only in Washington but across the world which is entirely bipartisan which in today's environment is saying quite something Yes it is to say the least I will give out the full title of your book We'll come back and talk about it later in greater detail the 5th horseman and the new mad from post hill press and subtitled how massive attacks of disruption became the looming existential threat to a divided nation and the world at large so as I said obviously a topic that is not small time but we will get back to that right now the immediate threat on which the world is quite focused and that is the Russian incursion into portions of eastern Ukraine which have been going on for some time really I mean where do you think that the separatists got all that artillery and those artillery rounds that it wasn't on eBay and now of course the threat that very possibly there might be a full scale invasion of the entire country of Ukraine particularly from Russian troops based in Belarus directly to the north and about a three hour drive in peaceful times from the Kyiv the capital of Ukraine Your assessment of where we are and where we're headed Harlan Oman Unfortunately we've got two sides who don't want to listen to the other side Vladimir Putin has said for a very very long time that he has been fed up with the way that Russia has been treated for 20 years We've rejected those grievances I'm not taking his side but sometimes people have reasons to say that on the American side we have not enabled to come to terms to negotiate with Putin on what he sees are the big issues and security framework in Europe What happens to NATO and what about Ukraine And so Putin has organized the strategy whereby he is going to continue to put the pressure on Ukraine and the west by virtue of his military forces and by his salami tactics will be probably short of all out war But nonetheless very very powerful If Putin was stupid enough to invade Ukraine this would be the end of him in Russia as it currently exists for a number of reasons It would precipitate in my view an economic crisis even a recession And China would not like that Oil would spike the $300 a barrel of some huge amounts supply chains would be interrupted We in the west would be affected but Russia and Putin be affecting much more so And I think if we would do this the same fate would befall him as the fell a key to khrushchev after the Cuban missile crisis in October 1962 when two years later he was fired as for secretary head of the Soviet Union for a hair brained scheme I think Putin understands that Putin does not want to see body bags coming back to Russians but having said that we have to understand in this particular case Donald Trump was not wrong so one of the few times in his life quote is really smart and really clever And I think we have not been equally clever in dealing with him giving him the initiative The west has huge advantages We have far more people who are on our side and we have far more economic and military power And so what we should be doing is saying to Putin and I don't know that the president has done this what does he want How do we negotiate Telling Putin that if he continues to keep on doing we are just going to impose threats and thanks which aren't going to work It's not a way to negotiate We need to find out what Putin says and what he wants and to see if we can deal with if we can't then we impose all the sanctions We isolate Russia It'll be painful all around But a year from now two years from now we will prevail as we did during the Cold War But unfortunately I don't see that we have a clever strategy except to say and we're going to impose sanctions And I'm concerned that this could escalate for reasons that are what both sides would like to avoid So let's take a look at what he wants He's already said what he wants He wants a demilitarized Ukraine He wants NATO influence out of the former Warsaw Pact nations and he wants the two easternmost provinces of Ukraine You know what he wants I mean what he wants basically to reestablish the old Soviet Union which he pines for in its publicly said that the greatest tragedy of the 20th century if you can believe that the greatest tragedy of the 20th century was the end of the Soviet Union when most people would say that our century that got pretty terrible at times that would be at least one of the top three things that were good that happened during the 20th century We know what he wants and I must say honestly other than listening just to go through the whole thing perfunctory I can't imagine why we would listen None of that is acceptable Let me take that apart All right Why did he say why did he say the dissolution was of the Soviet Union was the greatest catastrophe in the 20th century Because he was an idiot But I know you've got a more nuanced response so please go ahead No I don't I have Putin's response I have Putin's response Why don't we listen Putin said several times that 30 million Russians no longer were Russians Now you can agree with that or not but that's what Putin said and you need to start with what he talks about What he says is unacceptable We should understand that There's no way that Ukraine is going to join NATO We all know that So why don't we say what is plan B If Putin says he wants to return to a framework in Europe three 1997 what does that mean for Russia It means Russia has got to remove its forces from Ukraine from Georgia It means it has to stand down with its forces in Kaliningrad which is a small enclave that separated from Russia in the Baltic pie Poland and Lithuania It means that Russia has got to take on certain steps So why don't we say okay what does this mean for Russia instead of rejecting In other words if this were a legal case and you were arguing you would take the other side plea and take it apart We have not done that Jim Well shame on it We all know that Nate Ukraine will not join NATO if in fact the salami approach of peeling off Crimea and the two easternmost provinces who knows what's next If that continues why would the remainder of Ukraine not immediately apply for and frankly in my view not immediately receive NATO membership This is the white people countries one of the large and NATO It's to keep the Russian combat boot off their necks which they know full well from several decades of Soviet direct control of their lives That's a great question That's a great question And I'll answer two ways One article ten of the NATO trees makes that impossible because Ukraine does not have stabilized for it So by its own document Ukraine is not accessible to NATO and second I guarantee you any number of NATO nations namely France and Germany would vote against it And sure other points Because we don't.

It is from Post Hill Press and subtitled How The Washington Post Betrayed Deep Throat, covered up Watergate and began today's partisan Advocacy journalism. First of all, you were the attorney for Deep throat correct. Well, that's right. And, interestingly deep throat Mark felt was the head of the FBI. And he started the whole life that the head of the FBI overall but he was the director. The head of the FBI investigation was the number two man. And what is important is let's forget about Watergate Jim. He actually went after the weather Underground and the P L O. The P L O after the Munich massacre and Munich Olympics came to the United States. And Mark Felt said. We have to go in and find out who these people are so we can get them out and avoid the slaughter of thousands of Jewish citizens in New York. We have to go find the weather underground, so he allowed His agents to search Uh, apartments and places. Uh, near and dear to those two wonderful organizations and they were very successful against the P l O. They drove the P l o out of the country. They didn't find any weather underground people, but nonetheless years later. When these searches came out The Washington Post railed that deep throat they didn't know nobody knew it was deep throat that Mark felt should be prosecuted that somehow this was unconstitutional for the man. To allow warrantless searches against our terrorist enemies. Now what happened was he was prosecuted. The prosecutor got the judge to issue instructions to the jury to presume him guilty. It was a kangaroo court. But that's what started FISA. That's when they decided that face had to be enacted to help protect these agents. But the history of our response to terrorism since Mark Felt's case has been this modeled, very, um Half baked. Uh, you know, uh, right arm not knowing what the left arm is doing, and Mark felt warned that if we didn't have more robust Uh, responses to terrorism. Pretty soon there was going to be something terrible that was going to happen in United States, and he described an event much like 9 11. He said. We cannot wait around, put our fingers in the ear our ears until there's an explosion and then try to get the criminals. We have to get the terrorists before they act. And so he was prosecuted. And guess who was the newspaper that rallied the public A rallied the Justice Department to indict him. The Washington Post. The Washington Post started all of this. Back in the 19 seventies late 19 seventies, knowing by the way that Mark felt was deep through other that helped them in Watergate. And so what The Post did was all things. Uh, conservative were to be stewed were to be, you know, frowned upon and Mark felt had done a conservative think he tried to protect our country. Now What happens is there's a long line of of, uh, results from Mark Pilz trial that I will not bore the the audience with, but it resulted in The fact that when the terrorists when the FBI came up with The laptop of a terrorist that was going to fly a plane. The judge said. Oh, you have a constitutional right? You can't open up the, uh, laptop. We'll all this comes from the Washington Post. Uh, idiotically, saying that we have that all these terrorists have constitutional rights. They do not have them now Mark felt was proven right by history. Ronald Reagan pardoned him thought it was a ridiculous prosecution is prosecuted under Jim Jimmy Carter. But my point is, is that These things have consequences when we have, uh Much brained people who want to be nicey nice but don't understand the Constitution. We end up slaughtering our citizens, So they think they're being real Good. The Washington Post other being so no noble and then they cry and scream when we have 9 11. Guess what those things are related. If they would have been on the side of good. Solid law enforcement is Mark felt The very honest and honorable man, Uh, suggested we wouldn't have had 9 11. I'm sorry it wouldn't have happened. And that's the fact and what Mark felt was prosecuted criminally for doing what we would all want him to do as a law enforcement officer. So these things this much brain stuff we're talking about today has consequences. And when people get killed 3000 people probably 10,000. When you talk about all the people that smoke inhalation and all that stuff, maybe more. All this comes about because people decide that in their wisdom. All this has to be nicey. Nice. They're not getting killed. Somebody else is getting killed. They're willing to sacrifice those people so that they can feel good about themselves. And I'm sorry. I think that's immorality.

"And someday there will be other revolutions that we're gonna have to face and I think we're at that point. I'm trying to prevent that and I get certain Solutions. And in this book, it takes a revolution on how we can weighs a peaceful and legal revolution. But I'm afraid that things were going to explode and its impeachment trial could be a flashpoint. Many people in this country to take matters into their own hands. I would would note by the way that we heard, of course, in that inaugural address all kinds of calls for healing and unity. And it occurred to me that if I were advising Joe Biden, which I certainly do not If I had his best interests at heart, which again I really don't, But I would say Here's your chance. You want a hell you might even pick up a few votes here and there on things like your agenda and confirmation of your top officials. Simply call up Pelosi and Schumer and say, OK, that's it. All right. You impeached him again. No trial. Forget it, calling off. On Duh, but he passed on that opportunity, So I guess we just have to consider the healing and unity speech as Biden blather. Well, it's not gonna happen and we've seen in the last week and a half one executive order after another, which undid everything that President Trump accomplish accomplished in four years. So you couple that with an impeachment trial, and you're in a very explosive situation, not just with regard to not getting anything accomplished in Washington. There are a lot of people out there, frankly, who are really mad. They're angry, and even yours truly. I mean, who I didn't I never saw Trump was the political messiah. The American people are We're the this country We have to rise up. We have to take the country back. But right now, the left controls all three branches of government. They control the Justice Department. They control the FBI. The FBI is out right now running down people who appeared at the rally for President Trump. I know that because people have called me They're threatening them to turn over their cell phones that they don't turn it over there going to be slapped with a warrant. They could be indicted. And this is an effort to intimidate any dissent in this country, and this impeachment trial is part of that is sending the message. The American people from this from the left from the radical left, which is now taken control of our government that we should not criticize. We should not oppose, which is simply accept. Socialization and potential communist ation of this country under Biden and Harris did you by the way here the remarks of Speaker Pelosi this the past day. But she says that more money is needed to protect lawmakers from threats of violence from an enemy within Congress or the direct quote form or security from members when the enemy is within the House of Representatives, a threat that members are concerned about asked to clarify that Pelosi went under and it means that we have members of Congress who want to bring guns on the floor and I threatened violence on other members. Of Congress. I know Valise one case in which a lawmaker was stopped on a metal detector, bringing trying to bring a gun under the floor. Ah violence and other members of Congress. I'm not aware of anything current. Although I do recall the Democrat who once came to senseless, a member of the U. S. Senate. Back before the civil war. But those facts not withstanding your your thoughts about the latest Nancy Pelosi statement, referring to the enemy within the House of Representatives. Well, this is a perch. You know, Once leftist takes control, we have examples over history whether it was the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. Whether it was Iran whether it's communist China, whether it's Venezuela, whether it's Cuba, they don't want to relinquish power. I don't believe they ever will relinquish power, and they Worked up in electoral system right now that guarantees a victory nearly every presidential election. But they're trying to eliminate the scent. And these Republicans eliminate the Senate. Pardon me. Descent Descent. I misunderstood you. Please continue. Right right. They eliminate the scent, and this is a way to do it. And what's iron? Ironic here is that you know you still have in Washington, D C about 7000 National Guardsmen troops. Apparently more than we currently have in Afghanistan, as a matter of fact, and they're there to supposedly protect these congressmen and senators and federal officials against we, the people. Him. It was How much Jefferson that said that when the people fear the government there's tyranny. But when the government fears the people, there's liberty, So perhaps some good will come out of this because this government Frankly needs to fear the people because they have not been representing the interests of the people, and the people know that. And I think what happened to three weeks ago Wednesday was the natural manifestation. Of the government, not representing the people, you know, at the beginning of our declaration of independence. May paraphrase because my book is dedicated to Jefferson. It says that I'm paraphrasing when in the course of human events. Sovereign the rulers. No longer represent the people. The people have a right under the laws of nature and nature's God. To alter or abolish that government and to form a new government. Fine for the people with inalienable rights for everyone in pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. I'm paraphrasing. And I think we've come to that point Is it people see that the government doesn't represent them? Whether it's the Justice Department who you know, covered up Russian witch hunts. Nobody gets indicted. No one's held accountable. You know that we've Known each other since I read Judicial Watch. In the 19 nineties, none of high people ever held accountable now one of the elite of Washington or held accountable, they're not responsive to the needs of the American people in these federal judges who get their job, including Supreme Court justices. With a Z, a result of political campaign contributions, other perks and sometimes outright bribes. Our yes men and women that are put on the bench and President Trump's own judges, which he constantly boasted about 300 Trump judges and I talked about it in my book. I've been front of eight of them. They have no courage, your little different than Obama and Clinton judges. These judges threw him under the bus and even his own Supreme Court Justices Gorsuch Cavanaugh and Tony Barrett, in a case that was well brought by the attorney general of Texas. They threw it in the trash. So the people see that they have no justice system that will protect them. And we are in a situation where in a revolution right now, and I wrote this book. It takes a revolution because I don't want to see you get violent. I want to see it. Peacefully in legally. Reformed. This government needs to be reformed, altered or abolished, and we need to form a new government if they're not going to represent us. Stay with us more to come as we speak tonight with the Larry Klayman again. He is the founder of Freedom. Watch us a dot org's his book, It takes a Revolution. Forget the scandal industry is in paperback from Post Hill Press, and we'll continue with more on the Bohannon show in just a moment. When the for gotten poor are suffering and in.
