Hi everybody. I’m Bianca Delarza and you
have to check out Jean Valentino’s
Grassroots Truths Cast podcast. I was a
guest. He has the best guests. Always
Throughout history, the spirit of
patriotism has prevailed. The battles
may have changed, but the values remain
the same. Today in 2024, we find
ourselves at a pivotal moment where the
call for unity, freedom, and a better
future echoes louder than ever. For more
than 10 years, Patriot Mobile has been
committed to supporting the values that
make our nation great. With affordable
plans and reliable nationwide coverage,
Patriot Mobile is not just a wireless
service. It’s a call to action for those
who believe in the American dream.
Because this year is not just any year.
It’s the most important year since our
nation’s founding. Choose a wireless
carrier that shares your values. Choose
pleased to bring in co-founder of the
Tea Party Patriots Action, Jenny Beth
Martin, and he is host of the Grassroots
Truthcast podcast, Gene Valentino.
Welcome in panel. Great to see you both.
Uh, so obviously these images of Bergam
and Deli, a vote of confidence for Deli,
and you know, we saw the ouster and a
lot of naysayers saying, “Oh, this is
going to be so much instability.” Um,
Doug Bergam’s also working on a gold
deal. I’ll start with you, Jenny Beth.
You know, the economics of this very
important because it’s also a
stabilizing factors. Markets don’t like
instability. President Trump has been
saying hold on and so has Treasury
Yeah, I think that it you’re right. The
markets don’t like the instability and
there’s going to be fluctuation and I
don’t think that should surprise anyone.
What I think is important to remember is
that one of the things President Trump
has been working on for the last year
and a half is making sure that we are
focused on drilling more in America,
that we have pipelines in America, and
that America is getting back to energy
independence. So if he had taken this
action in Iran right after he came into
office, we wouldn’t have some of that
that same the same energy here in
America available the way that he has
helped over the last year and a half.
Okay? Plus we have what has happened
and now oil is flowing from Venezuela.
So that is going to help make up for it.
And finally, President Trump has said
that he’s going to protect the ships uh
in Iran to make sure that they’re still
able to move oil in and out and around
that region. And I think all of that is
extremely important in helping stabilize
gas prices as we get through this very
defined mission in Iran right now.
It could be weeks, could be four weeks.
Uh Jean, I’m bringing you in here.
President Trump, you know, obviously
when it comes to energy, he wants drill,
baby drill. He’s got Chris Wright. He’s
got Doug Bergam. The people that are in
the White House are adults in the room.
Uh they’re getting rid of the EV
mandates. They’re getting rid of all the
restrictions here. So again, while this
isn’t a time for markets to be a little
bit rattled, what do you make of Susie
Wild saying, “Hey, let’s get some ideas
going on.” Because, you know, the
message has to be delivered to the
American people. So important as well.
Yeah. Controlling Wall Street should
never be government’s role, but helping
to facilitate free trade, free supply.
There’s a role for for government to do
that. Susie Wilds is correct about
trying to stimulate things on that side
of the paradigm. The the real concern is
when government steps too far and tries
to establish mandates like they did with
vaccines. uh in this case just creating
pathways or corridors for free markets
and open trade where supply and demand
factors kick in to justify price. So the
barrel the price per barrel getting up
over $80 a barrel. Not surprised.
Earlier reports indicated $100 a barrel.
Not surprised if we see that as well.
But um it will be the free market that
responds to the level of supply uh based
on the level of demand to determine
where those prices come back down. It’s
not necessarily government’s role to
stick a price out there. If they want to
try to talk in general terms about
bringing it back down under $2 a gallon,
that’s fine. But mandating that the
delivery folks of gasoline go to $2 a
gallon is inappropriate and goes it’s it
it’s cross purposes with free market and
Le let’s talk about this vote now that’s
about to happen in Kilman’s there on the
hill. So you’ve got war powers. They
want to restrict President Trump in the
middle of a conflict where it does seem
to be um hour by hour more and more uh
destructible for Iran. Uh you have a lot
of the left trying to say that there was
no strategy and also some like AOC
saying that President Trump is trying to
distract from the Epstein scandal. I
mean as outrageous as it is, she goes on
and says he impulsively went in on
Venezuela, impulsively went in on Iran,
and every time he’s done that, it has
been inconsistent with a spike or
revelation of what is happening with the
Epstein files and says Trump should be
removed from office. I mean, AOC just
joining up the base here, but what about
all the women uh in Iran, Jenny Beth,
who are now just celebrating the chance
of being free and not having to cover
their hair. I mean, again, AOC here not
really able to grasp that we’re not on
the side of terrorists still.
Yeah, it it she’s looking for any reason
that she can any reason she can find to
try to impeach President Trump and she
hopes that Democrats will win in the
fall so they can impeach President Trump
again. It’s why we absolutely must not
let that happen. But the bigger point
here is President Trump did not act
impulsively. He did not act impulsively
in Venezuela or in Iran. We can look at
how targeted what happened in Venezuela
was. H how the entire um mission was
executed with such precision. That does
not indicate impulsiveness. That
indicates forthought and and very
deliberate execution. The same thing is
happening in Iran. President Trump has
laid out clearly defined objectives. He
wants to destroy Iran’s missile
capability, destroy their navy, make
sure they never have a nuclear weapon,
and stop their payments to terrorist
organizations around the world. Those
are very clear objectives. All of them
affect America and national security.
And she’s just completely wrong when she
says it’s impulsive and there is no
strategy. and the people who are voting
right now in the House with the War
Powers Act. President Trump acted within
within his powers within the way the law
is described. We can debate the
constitutionality of it, but he acted
within the the way the law was defined.
Yeah. And I want to bring in one more
thread here and then Jean, you can give
us your final thoughts. I mean, it’s
amazing how, you know, this will go. I
mean, Iran obviously with its bluster,
not getting any support, has no allies,
has no friends. Um, the foreign minister
Abbas Aragoti saying that the country is
ready for a ground invasion by American
troops. So, here we go. Uh, flexing a
little bit hard there as they know the
Well, there’ll be a ground invasion of
of sorts, but it’ll be from the Kurds,
not from America. And that too is the uh
acumen and keen thought pattern of
Donald Trump, his desire to uh to stay
out of it, which is what uh many of the
folks in Congress want. Uh but on on
AOC, that’s the antithesis of a keen
acumen. Uh she’s dealing solely AOC that
is is dealing with suspicion, a
microphone, and zero evidence. The
opposite’s true with Donald Trump.
Yeah. Um, also let’s get in this.
California Governor Gavin Newsome, uh,
again talking about President Trump. We
blurred it. You can see what the sword
is, though. Uh, he also echoed this
during a recent interview. I mean, this
guy is trying to run in 2028 on, you
know, obviously failed California.
Doesn’t matter if you’re running in a
uniarty state, Jenny Beth. But how do
you think he’s going to fare as he
continues on with these attacks on
President Trump? And at some point
he’s going to be called to answer for
what he’s done in California or what he
Yeah. I think that when it comes time to
voting in for for the nominee and then
for the president in 2028, we can look
at his failed state of California, all
the problems that that have have
happened in California, including a rise
of homelessness, the problems not taking
care of the the victims of the
wildfires, uh the the lack of parental
rights, the list can go on and on and
on. and then we’ll be able to compare it
to President Trump’s very successful
record during his second term. And if
you want a failed track record like
California or you want a wonderful
thriving country like what President
Trump will be handing to the next
president, I think that the contrast
will be very clear and putting out posts
like that on social media. Maybe it
makes him feel better, but I don’t think
it’s actually going to help him in the
long run, especially in November of
Jenny Beth Martin, Jeene Valentino,
