1:25As usual, today's Tuesday, March 17th, Happy Saint Patrick's Day, I'm not even wearing gray. Oh, I've got a dinosaur. No, it's a green cactus. I got a green cactus on my shirt, so a few. Nobody's going to pinch me today. The whole woke people talking about Saint Patrick's Day, which is where we're going to start, is draining 35 seconds and how can you make Saint Patrick's Day boring? You're not standing there with a green beard, she's not even wearing green, so I'm glad that I can throw shade at her because I'm wearing green kind of. People who are working from home, for the federal government, it costs the federal government millions of dollars to pull this off. And did it help? No. It just had productivity fall. Do you remember trying to get a passport a few years ago? Terrible. Absolutely awful. Cuba is, it looks like it's falling, it looks like it looks like that's it. Some people were saying we should help them. And I said, no, why would you prop up a communist dictatorship? Why would you give them money? Oh, those poor people, those poor communists, when they're free, we can trade with them.

2:27But until then, they've got to solve their problem. And then we could say, hey, new free Cuba, let's trade. Do you want any oil? Because it's going to take us a while to build a pipeline to get to tidewater. But once we do, we're communist. I think it's foreshadowing our future. Mipers at the St. Patrick's Day events. So top of the morning to you, it's waterloo. And sometimes their stuff gets out of hand. But do you need snipers? Are the students really that bad? What's the ratio? Like what? I remember being in waterloo for St. Patrick's Day in 2004 or something like that. And we were right on, right on Herb Street, which is one of the big streets for, although I don't think they were doing street parties on Herb Street. But we were right on Herb Street. I've been to street parties on Herb Street. It's a busy road. But it's one of those things where I don't think you needed snipers. So I mean, the demographic shift is a concerning thing. In 20 years, now we need snipers. What's another 20 years going to bring? Switzerland defends our north. Carnies went to Norway and is excited about that.

3:29And I have the same question. If something happens, the US one is defending our border, our north now. It's now become the North American north or something like that, not the Canadian north. And two, Switzerland, hey, Switzerland, we've got stuff happening. We don't have sleeping bags for our military. So could you help us out? Oh, yeah, we'll be there real soon. We're just going to get the ships ready. And we'll start sailing there. We'll be there any, a couple of weeks. We'll be there in like, you know, a day and a half, two days. How long does it take to get 25? So it's one of those things that I just, I'm very skeptical of all these virtue signalling deals that Carnies making because it's all bullshit. C22 is an attack on privacy. And we've got some more fleshed out a little bit today as well. So lots to get to. Let's get to it first, St. Patrick's Day. Woke people talking about St. Patrick's Day awful. Here's the prime, or the president. This was supposed to be Conor McGregor. This was supposed to be that guy, right? He was supposed to be the MMA fighter president of Ireland who was going to restore Ireland to its former glory and get the snakes out and stuff. But that didn't happen.

4:31And this person, 13% of the vote spoiled their ballot. Lois turned out in Irish history. They all knew it was a rigged system. And yet this is the president of Ireland. She's got all that power, right? So Kirk says in 63 seconds, Ireland's new president and her first and her first St. Patrick's Day message, she sends out a message to humiliate Ireland with woke nonsense. In 63 seconds, she calls St. Patrick Patrick four times. In turn, ignoring Ireland's Catholic historical traditions, refuses to wear green opting for black instead like a funeral. And espouses a historically inaccurate version of events compared to St. Patrick, comparing St. Patrick to a migrant, he was a slave, to create a modern day socialist propaganda speech. This is graceful. So this is where we're at. I'm sorry. I don't mean to ruin your St. Patrick's Day. Go grab a beer. Day drinking is okay on St. Patrick's Day, according to lots of people. And this is just woke nonsense. That's why I'm showing it to you. I don't believe in anything she's saying. I'm saying, look how crazy these people are. It's like we're in a zoo. Here we go.

6:33Big story speaks not only to the Ireland of the 5th century, but to the millions still subjected to trafficking, forced labor, and displacement today, as we recall the life of... That's just 30 seconds. 30 seconds. I was like, we've got to be at a minute. And when she said the millions, I was in my head, I was like, and millions, oh fans right, come for the rock. I don't know why. I haven't watched WWE in forever. Anyway, that's how terrible this is. Do you want to hear the rest? I don't. I really don't. So that's what they're trying to do. Pissing all over the culture, pissing all over the West and everything that we hold dear. They put in their puppets and they reinvent history to fit with their narrative. He was a migrant. He sure wasn't. Alex Jones says Ireland's new communist president declares war on the very existence of Ireland during her first St. Patrick's Day message. Remember college... Remember colleagues, UKWider now saying that the English, Scottish, and Irish people never existed, colleges.

7:35Educational TV programs show Vikings as Africans while white culture is being deliberately erased by replacement migration and the history that proves we ever existed is being destroyed. This is beyond book burning. She calls St. Patrick, Patrick four times, and we've gone through the rest of Alex Jones points here. So it's weird. It's weird. And here's the snipers. In Waterloo for those rowdy St. Patrick's Day celebrators. Ontario Police Services responding to online reaction after images circulated on social media showed a police sniper positioned above a St. Patrick's Street Party. Waterloo Regional Police confirmed a sniper was watching over the annual unsanctioned gathering near Wilford, Laurier University over the weekend. Police say the deployment of tactical officers was part of a broad safety plan that considered the possibility of mass casualty events, adding the practice is common for large gatherings. Ontario Police Services responding to online reaction after... Sorry my mouse was disappeared there.

8:37So you know, snipers, it's just what we do, weird. So Donald Trump, some people think Donald Trump has set a trap for NATO. Like what's the use of NATO if we're just going to do this anyway. And NATO's said of the Strait of Hormuz, not our problem. You did this. NATO is not involved in this. So you know, you're bad you lie in it, type deal. Here is Trump and yesterday I said maybe Trump got got and by that I mean, maybe Trump got convinced that this was a virtuous thing to do. Maybe he got got. And the other point is maybe this is part and parcel of cutting off the head of rogue states that are controlled by the deep state, but I don't know. It's see, it sounds in this clip like to an extent, he got got. Here we go. Can we wrap this war up this week? Yeah, sure. Yeah, okay. I don't think so, maybe some won't be alone. And we're going to have a much safer world when it's wrapped up. It'll be wrapped up soon.

9:37We're going to have a much safer world. I had an obligation to do this. I didn't want to, I called it an excursion. I didn't want to make this journey. We had the highest stock market in history. We had low gas prices. Everything was good. And I know exactly. I know what you're going to do it and people are going to raise the price of oil. But I know that. But that's a very small thing compared to allowing them to have, you want to see a stock market go down, start letting them hit you with nooks, okay? I think I said it this morning, I think it's a very small price to pay. Can we wrap this war up this week? I thought his response here, the kind of non-committal, yeah, we could wrap it up and then will we? Well, no, probably not. Okay, if you can, then why not? Is there a reason for dragging it out? And I mean, maybe you're looking for a result from the Iranian people. Maybe you're waiting for the Iranian people to do something. Who knows, right? Who knows? I don't know what the timeline is.

10:37I don't know. But all I'm doing is watching from my garage. Chase says rip, rest in peace, NATO. The Germans in British just gave the middle finger to Donald Trump and the USA. As we say in Ireland, eaten bread is soon forgotten. So not NATO's war, Germany and the UK reject Trump's call for help in the Strait of Hormuz. A starmer seems to have made it and made an about face on this and says that he will help with the Strait of Hormuz. But I'll believe it when I see it. Here's Germany's chancellor and he says, we will not participate in ensuring freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz by military means. The war in the Middle East does not matter for NATO. Therefore, Germany will also not become involved in military. Oh, okay. That's not a NATO. Okay. Why isn't it a NATO thing? Doesn't NATO buy a crap ton of oil through the Strait of Hormuz and isn't Iran a rogue state? Whether it's deep state controlled or not, isn't it a rogue state that's threatening a bunch of people and has attacked a bunch of people in the last little while? Not a NATO issue. Yes, we're watching the Middle East with concern. But we don't see anything that requires our intervention.

11:41There are bombing places with drones, like civilians with drones. This is a state nothing to do with NATO. Are you kidding? Canada too. Bill Blair on Trump's request for warships in Hormuz to the best of my knowledge. He says Canada has not yet made any commitments to send any of our naval assets into the region. As the Prime Minister has been so clear, we are not participating in that conflict. And Dan says, I'm just asking the question nobody else will, how does the Muslim community have this total cuckold grip over Mark Karni and the Liberal Party? Iran bombs one of our own bases and he buries the story for two full weeks. Why? So he doesn't have to lift a finger to defend Israel and piss off his radical base. So I'm paraphrasing here, but he's afraid of the Muslims, right? So that's not so good. Somebody make it make sense. Yeah. Yep. Kurt says the real story about NATO countries refusing to help the United States is not that they disagree with American policy. In fact, they're very happy with, they're very happy we're eliminating Iran as a threat. They're just afraid of all the Muslims they led in, so they won't say it out loud.

12:42The real story, however, is the fact that they don't have a military that's capable of performing the mission. So the next, so next time some Jibu from Denmark, I don't know what Jibu is. From Denmark starts crowing about how they turn down their NATO ally, ask them what ship they could deploy to the Persian Gulf within one week could, could, could conduct those operations and you will never get an answer because the answer is they don't have one and I don't disagree. Here is terror alarm. They said this morning, the EU announced it will not join the war or help the US reopen the street of Hormuz. Tonight an Iranian drone hit Baghdad's Al Rashid hotel, striking the floor, hosting the EU delegation and several European diplomatic officers. So there you go. Iranian drones, but apparently the EU sees past all that. There's nothing. There's nothing to see here. I don't know what you're talking about, everything's fine. Open source intel says President Trump, or President Trump says, you have to remember we have 45,000 troops in Japan, 45,000 in South Korea, 50,000 in Germany.

13:44He's talking about, you ask for a little bit and they don't, and they don't help. Why not? I don't need your aircraft carriers after we've already won. So you know, those things are very disappointing and you have to remember we have 45,000 troops in Japan. We have 45,000 troops in South Korea, we have 45,000, 50,000 troops in Germany. We defend all these countries and then do you have any mind sweepers? And they say, well, wouldn't it be possible for us not to get involved? I've been saying it for a long time, I don't need your aircraft carriers after we've already won. Right. We don't need your help after we've already won. Here is Eric Darity and this is a little bit longer and I think it's worth listening to you. Done a great job and when we want to know, do you have any mind sweepers? Well, would, would rather not get involved through, I said for you mean, for 40 years we're protecting you and you don't want to get involved in something that is very minor, very

14:47few shots going to be taken because they don't have many shots left. But they said, would rather not get involved. I just want the fake news media and everybody else to remember that that was said because when, you know, I've been a big critic of all of the protecting of countries because I know that we'll protect them and if ever needed, if we ever needed help, if they won't be there for us, I've just known that for a long period of time. Just like I knew about the straight that it would be a weapon. So there you go, he's not wrong and why wouldn't they help? Here is Trump and this guy's, Glenn is trying to take down Trump and I think this is actually Trump's illustrating that we don't need, we don't need you guys after we've already won and if you want us to protect you, if you want us to spend our money on protecting you,

15:49then you might find out that we're not going to be there for you when you're not there for us, right? And I don't think Trump's wrong to say this, to highlight these things. We don't need you after we've won. We need you now to help with this whole thing because we're not the only people who benefit from this and he says that we get less than 1% of our oil through that straight, you know, like that's not where we get our oil from. I don't know if that's true, but he said that. But it seems obvious to me that if you've pledged a protection thing and you're supposed to be the world police or whatever, not just the United States, but NATO, right? And now the straight of Hormuz is being closed and you're like, I don't see any reason to step in here. Seems like bullshit. If we haven't needed help, they won't be there for us. I've just known that for a long period of time. We have some that are really enthusiastic, they're coming already. This isn't need, need would be one of the big boys. If we need their mind votes or if we need anything, any piece of apparatus that they may have because of a situation that they have, they should be jumping to help us.

16:52We want them to come and help us with the straight. My attitude is, we don't need anybody. We're the strongest nation in the world. We have the strongest military by far in the world. We don't need them. Yeah. Take another context. It doesn't sound coherent, but it is coherent because I think the point he's trying to make is that you should act now. Marco Rubio, people we're talking about, recruiting him for the next 28, but for right now, he's talking about the impact of this conflict, but I've got to say goodbye to the stream. So thanks for watching, everybody. If you want the whole show, head over to Candidapolly.com. If not, that's okay. I'll be around tomorrow and for everybody else, we'll carry on as soon as I kill the stream. Done. Done. Done. Good. This is reporting.
