Hate for Israel and Praise for China. How Did We Get Here? w/ Gen Michael Flynn | The Schaftlein Report Ep. 6

Hello everybody, mark Schafflein with you and this is the Schafflein Report. It's Thursday's edition and we are broadcasting from Venice, florida. Happy to have you with us today. And, folks, we have a very special treat for you today we are broadcasting from the headquarters of General Michael Flynn. General Flynn, welcome to Schafflein Report, happy to have you with me today.

This is great, mark, and we really do appreciate being part of your show and welcome to your audience. I like to call it the inside the skiff, but this is our headquarters in Venice, florida, and this is our corporate headquarters where we operate and do a lot of things out of here nationwide, so this is a great opportunity for us to spend a little bit of time with you and your audience.

General Flynn, let's get some of the hot topics of the day. We have seen some of the most incredible hideous reactions across the country, even as late today. The level of anti-Semitism in this country. I never thought we would see something like this. We're seeing college students supporting Hamas. We're seeing late breaking news today A college professor was charged with manslaughter in the killing of a 69-year-old Jewish man in Los Angeles. General Flynn, what is the root cause and why are we seeing this just what I deem un-American activity happening at our college campuses?

There's so many different components to answering a question like that in terms of root causes. I think the bigger sort of strategic issue that we are facing is we're facing a complete cultural shift in the United States of America, a cultural shift from where we were a democracy run under a constitutional republic. We're experiencing this cultural shift towards socialism and communism and what we are seeing is this lack of. When you think you control a society through warfare, through what I call these endless wars, that typically gets out of control and I think what we're seeing, particularly the most recent attack on the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington DC. We see the seizure, the seizing of a couple of key road networks, what Mark just talked about in places like Boston, and I think it was New York or another San Francisco San Francisco was another part. We see what Mark just reported on, this manslaughter by a college professor. So the institutions of higher learning in this country are a system of government and the takeover by elements that are subversive elements to many of our institutions, like the Department of Education, the Department of Justice, the FBI, the intelligence community. All these things matter and those things are starting. What is starting to appear is the real growth of a subversive element, mainly this rise of radicalism inside of one party, particularly, in this case, the Democrat Party of this country, and I think what's happening is even the Democrat Party, because we heard Hakim Jeffries actually, I listened to that speech. We talked about this off camera Hakim Jeffries, who's the leader of the Democrat Party in the House of Representatives. I actually thought he gave a pretty good speech the other day, but I think that what they're beginning to realize, what the Democrat Party is beginning to realize, is that they can't control these elements, and these elements are now starting to take control of the streets of America, never mind what's happening with Xi Jinping's visit here to the United States of America, which is another topic that we wanted to talk about.

Well, and it gets worse because you have some of these left-wing organizations funding these universities, and our United States government provides massive amounts of money to some of the higher educational companies, like MIT, like Harvard, yale, etc. And we're just seeing. It's incredible. I mean, general, even some of the wealthy donors to these colleges are saying enough is enough, we have to stop this stuff. So, folks, I got to tell you something. We talked about this today. It's not getting better, it's going to get worse as this continues. General, before we get on to China, can you give, for our audience, a military assessment of what's working, what's not working, as the Israelis continue their war on Hamas, which I applaud, and, contrary to everyone at the United Nations, calling for a quote ceasefire?

Give us your answer, I think that, first of all, for everybody, the war in the Middle East between, frankly, the Jews in Israel and these radical Islamists, not just in Gaza but all over the Arab world and the Muslim world, primarily the Muslim world, and so that war is going to continue to drag on and it's going to get worse before it gets better. The fact that we still have hundreds of hostages being held, and the age range of the hostages are from three years old to 87 years old. We know that there have been reports of rape. We know that there have been actual rapes of children I'm talking babies and young girls and boys. We know that there have been brutal murders by Hamas when they originally attacked on the 7th of October, and we know that there are a fair number of Americans being held hostage. I think that the numbers of Americans are still around three to 400. We know that there were Americans killed in that initial attack and we know that there have been Americans killed since then. So, and we know that there have been American military forces attacked by Iranian backed organizations in Iraq and in Syria, and now we're upwards of around 100 attacks have occurred. We have probably 60 to 70 US injured. That number is. You know, don't hold me to that number, that number is probably higher. So the overall situation in the Middle East is one where we still are at war. Israel is still under assault on their southern border by Hamas, on their northern border by Hezbollah and on their sort of north and east border by elements of the Syrian military, as well as under the threat of the umbrella of Iranian missiles, potentially that we know of at least eight have been fired from Yemen and those, those eight, have been knocked down. We know that the Iranian I don't know whether it's the prime minister or the foreign minister who has gone to Turkey to have negotiate or have talks with the, with the Turkish president, and these talks are not going to be in Israel's favor. They're not going to be in Israel's favor there. When they talk about a ceasefire, the ceasefire is not in in support of Israel. The ceasefire is in support of the efforts of the Hamas, principally the Hamas, but these radical Islamist groups, and their desire is to wipe Israel off the face of the plan. It's not about a ceasefire to have peace and long lasting peace. If it was, if it was about long lasting peace, we wouldn't be in this situation, because Israel was not looking for a war in the Middle East. Believe me, israel is a place where, in fact, a week and a half from now, I was supposed to go on a 10 day tourist trip to Israel, but of course you know, I wasn't going to go to Gaza, I wasn't going to go tour Beirut, lebanon, or wasn't going to go tour Damascus, because you cannot, because they're not democracies. If a guy like me went in there I'd be beheaded. So it's a. It's one of these things that people have to understand. Israel is a, is a, is a democracy in a cauldron of radicalism. And what we're seeing right now is we're going to see a war that's going to go on for some time. It is going to bring in as it already is, is bringing in the American people on the streets of America in a very, very harsh way, and we, as Mark highlighted, we've seen one man already murdered because of it and we've had people injured. We had a six police officers the night before last or last night, I guess, democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington DC. Six and one of those police are seriously injured, but six got injured because of that by by Palestinian quote, unquote Palestinian protesters, right, right. So we just cannot have this in. And it's not just, it's like the border invasion going on on our southern border. It's not just happening at the southern border. We have illegals occupying all kinds of places in some of our major cities in this country. And now the war in the Middle East is not just happening on the, you know, in the southern zone of Israel against Hamas and in the Gaza. It's happening on the streets of America and it's going to get worse. It is going to get worse until we see leadership out of this White House take responsibility and start to do the things that are necessary to be able to take control of our streets again and not have police and I feel like their hands are tied to be able to actually take the responsibilities that they have to provide safety and security for the people of their communities.

That's just where we are General. I want to ask you one other question. This sort of talks about the response that the Biden administration has handled in this we have, as you mentioned, we've had service members injured at our bases throughout the Middle East. General is President Biden's response to blowing up ammunition depots in Syria? I mean, the proportionality of it seems to me to be woefully inadequate. And does that stem from our enemies learning about what happened when Biden had that disastrous exit from Afghanistan? Is there a perception in the Middle East that America is not going to respond while President Biden is there, and contrast that President Trump did when he was hosting President Xi at Mar-a-Lago? He leans over the table and he says President Xi, we're just eliminating Soleimani. I mean, it's not true.

I'm not one terrorist in the world at the time. Yeah, all you have to do is look at how Xi Jinping was welcomed into the United States of America in San Francisco, and that tells you everything you need to know about the weakness of the current US leader sitting in the White House. So everything that was just outlined. You know the disastrous retreat and surrender to the Taliban, and then retreat from Afghanistan to the way that we are carrying out our foreign policy and our military policy in the Middle East right now, and I'm not calling that for us to go back into another 20-year war. We just got out of one 20-year war. But look at what the results of that are when the sharks taste blood in the water, and the blood that's in the water is, frankly, american blood that's been spilled, and it's been spilled by weak leaders in the likes, in this case, of President Biden in the White House, and weak leaders across our government, whether it's Blinken at the State Department or Austin in the Department of Defense. Our military, like I just talked about, our police, our police hands are tied in the streets of America. Our military's hands are tied. Believe me, the people in the military, if they had the wherewithal to be able to retaliate sort of the tit for tat. It would be in a much, much different way. So their hands are going to be tied because this administration refuses to basically demonstrate the leadership that's necessary. What these countries like China, like Iran, like Syria, like these organizations like Hamas, hezbollah, what they recognize is they recognize strength. They recognize strength and they recognize what they need to be doing to be able to get to have the United States of America actually rise back up and start showing that kind of strength, and that's what they recognize. They'll recognize that kind of of retaliation, I guess, if necessary, to be able to stop this craziness that we see in the Middle East and, frankly, what we're seeing right here in the streets of America. We can't have this. These people are going to continue to just pick at the scab that is sort of the White House, the scab in the White House, and that is a festering problem, because we are showing no leadership whatsoever and people are just walking all over this administration and taking advantage of them.

General, we got a couple minutes in this segment. Let me ask you this it was astounding. Yesterday, when we've looked at that motorcade of sheep coming through San Francisco, we saw nothing but Chinese flags. I mean, where were the American flags? I mean, I cannot under President Paul.

I couldn't imagine. Well, here's something that we talked about, you know, and because we're watching it right, we're watching it as it was unfolding and I can tell you that had Trump been in the White House, he would have not allowed any Chinese flags on the streets of San Francisco. He would have said I want that route line with American flags, I want that route line with veterans, I want that route line with with police, I want that route line maybe even with some military, you know, units standing up there, and I want American music being played instead of having nothing but Chinese flags and fences along the streets to show, basically, what? Just another, again, another level of weakness. I hate to keep pounding on this, but the level of weakness that we are displaying and it's carrying out today in what we're seeing in some of these, these, these big CEO meetings that they're having with the Xi Jinping 40,000. Yeah, and they're. And now they? We just learned that Elon Musk was taken off of the of the speaker role and John Kerry was was plugged in at the last minute. You know, right prior to to coming on here, one of the things that I was sending some notes to some friends of mine was to say. What Elon Musk ought to do is he ought to just immediately start a Twitter spaces and and have a conversation. Believe me, nobody would even pay any attention anymore to what this administration is doing.

We'll be back in one minute with General Mike Flynn.

Bank's are supposed to be the safest placeholders for cash in the world, but in 2022 that changed. The Federal Reserve pulled out 2.5 trillion of liquidity out of the banks and the Fed also changed the requirements, so banks don't need to keep any funds on hand. This means banks are starved for liquidity and have now become very dangerous places to hold your assets. Get out of the system with the world's safest and most private assets silver and gold called Kirk Elliott, phd at 720-605-3900.

International issues, things going on in Israel, the protest here in this country, the relationship with China At the end of the day, it all ties back. You know how the Democrats are going to position everything the. It was predictable what the media was going to say oh, biden did great, this is what we accomplished with China. They came away with some things about fentanyl and climate change and panda bears, and I'm sitting here saying the media is going to say it was a great meeting because Biden was able to get through the meeting and they're going to have another meeting. I mean it's really crazy. But where this is going politically, folks, I want to dive into some of these numbers and we're going to talk Donald Trump, the Republican field and how he stacks up against Joe Biden and what's the effect of Kennedy on this race. General, let's start with this. President Trump's numbers are continuing to grow. I mean he's up 45 to 50 points now over his nearest competitors. I mean Ron DeSantis, nikki Haley are floating anywhere from 10 to 15 percent. Vivek Rameshwamy 7, 8 percent and that's it. I mean Chris Christie's down there around three with a 45 to 50 point lead. General, what?

So a couple of things In terms of the, the primaries. So we're in the throes of the primaries. We've seen some of these debates. We have the primaries beginning in January. They'll probably be done by about the fifth or sixth of March. That's the big. That's sort of the super Tuesday, big 16. With Trump up as he is, my expectation is Trump will clearly be the clear winner of the Republican primaries. All these other candidates and you can see Rameshwamy's going at Haley and Haley's going at Rameshwamy it's like they're just wasting time, they're wasting money and they're wasting resources. They're there on at best, at best around. You know true numbers. They're probably around four to about 8 percent, and that even includes Ron DeSantis. Ron DeSantis numbers head to head against Trump. In Florida. He's down like 30 or 40 percentage points. I mean it's just unbelievable. So so the, the, the Republican primary is, is clearly the clear winner is going to be Trump, and that'll that'll be in just a few more months from now. The real interesting parts of this race are going to be you know where is Kennedy at? right now, and Kennedy's numbers from a, from an independent you know, republican and Democrat review of everything. Kennedy's numbers are around 13%. So he's he's going to have an impact one way or the other and it'll be interesting to see how that plays out as the, as the months go by here and we go into the, we go into the summer conventions. The real interesting thing for me because I've been saying this for a while is that I don't think Joe Biden is going to be the nominee for the Democrat party and there's a lot of infighting right now as to how they're going to maneuver that 50, 54% to 28,.

General Democrats do not want Biden to be their nominee. So yeah, okay. So I think what's going to.

What we're going to see is, you know, the conventions are in essentially around the month of July, this summer, and that's not that far away. We're only talking about seven to eight months, you know, to really have that, that setup ready. So, between now and then, because there are people that are now starting to see your, starting to see heads pop up that are saying I might join the, I might run as a Democrat in the primers Once you start to see that, you start to hear people like David Axelrod David Axelrod in longtime Democrat operative and David Axelrod recently was talking about you know the fact that, while I'm not sure Biden can make it and Axelrod was an Obama guy Big time, big time. So these are people that, if you're listening to them, that's why, for me, I've known since the beginning of this thing that there's no way in the world that they're going to ride Biden. They're going to try to ride Biden again into another presidential election. Because to me and I'm not on election deny, I don't deny that elections occurred, I just deny that they were fair. And I don't think the 2020 elections were fair and we're seeing more and more of that come out. So the 2024 elections as we get going forward. There's no way in the world, with the horrific economy, the border invasion, the rise of fentanyl on the streets and the deaths and we're talking about close to 200 thousand now in the streets of America in just the past year with fentanyl you know the weak leadership. You know from a foreign policy, our military, all these different dynamics that this administration has. The Democrat Party knows they got a dump Joe and I think that's going to start trending dump Joe right. So when that happens now, who comes in? Is it Newsom out of, out of California? Is it a Kamala Harris? Is it another Republican or, I'm sorry, a Democrat governor that rises up? We're going to have to wait and see, but I think these decisions and we're going to start to see this happen in probably the next, probably three to four months- and let's talk about the implications of that general in and folks.

These are in a five person race, meaning President Trump, former President Trump, president Biden, kennedy, and then you've got lesser known people Jill Stein and I know you're laughing at it, don't laugh at it, cornell West. Let me tell you why you don't laugh at this, folks, and I'm gonna give you some history here. Back in the 2000 election, when George Bush barely eeked out like this over John Kerry, it came down to a handful of hanging chads in Palm Beach County who actually liberal Democrats, voted for Pat Buchanan. So when you say, hey, stein doesn't matter, west doesn't matter, and we haven't even talked about the fact that Joe Manchin and the no Labels Party are possibly getting in general with the split of the vote like that.

And I'm glad you brought up Joe Manchin, and it was George Bush and Gore in 2000.

Yeah, Bush and Gore, yeah, excuse me, yeah, in Florida.

But the interesting because, joe Manchin, that's a really interesting. So is Joe Manchin stepping down, saying I'm not gonna run for Senator again because the Democrats have enticed him to? Hey, come on, joe, another Joe, right, Come on. And why don't you run as a Democrat? Why don't you run on the Democrat ticket? West Virginia it's a big that part of the country. It doesn't count for a lot of electoral votes, but it counts for other things, right? So, joe Manchin, let's see what he does. Kennedy, stein, stein. Stein during the 2016 race. She ran as the Communist Party of America. Stein during the 2016 race. If I remember right, she got about 2% of the vote.

Enough in those key swing states that Trump won to take away votes from the Democrats.

And those swing states were places like Wisconsin. Michigan because they have a large population, frankly, of Communists. So what people have to understand is that there is such a play going on right now to maintain the control and the power that these globalists I call it the globalist elites have over the United States of America. And when you have a guy like Joe Biden, who is barely there, but when he is, I know because of just my own, my own intel inside of the White House, they are still arguing with him about whether or not he's gonna step down, and nobody likes Kamala Harris. So Kamala Harris, she couldn't even get 3% during the Democrat primaries back in 20, in the 20s she didn't even get a single delegate and brought that up at the Iowa Congresses.

Got zero votes folks.

So we're in a place right now where, from my perspective and I'll speak for myself that if we don't have Trump get reelected again and I say again and again, because he won in 2016, he actually won, at least from my standpoint, in 2020, but we gotta get him reelected in 2024 because we need that level of leadership, like him or not, like his tweets or not, but this is the type of leader and, again, I always tell people because I could be his worst nightmare and I'm not. Why am I not? Because I don't think that the decision that he made to get rid of me in 2017 was based on good information that he had and, frankly, that's a story for another interview that we can have. But people need to know that I'm standing here in full support and full-throated support for Donald J Trump to be the next president of the United States of America, and I'm doing it because we need that type of leadership in the White House right now, at this moment in history. If we don't have that and we have another outcome, like we had in 2020, we're gonna move towards socialism here very, very rapidly and we will not be returning to a constitutional republic anytime soon, and that could be and that timeframe is like in the timeframe of my children and my grandchildren. It could be that long.

General right now. Trump is up about five points on Biden in these and folks. When I talk about polls, I'm talking two credible polling companies here, quinnipiac and Fox. Now, some of you may disagree with them, but they have reputable polling data General. The data was almost like a mirror laying on top of each other. Trump up five and folks. That five points is like not the margin of error and general in the key swing states Wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania, nevada, arizona, georgia and maybe folks, even New Hampshire little New Hampshire could play a role in the electoral votes. Donald Trump's up in six of the eight swing states. He's head to head.

He's up head to head between, not just up in the Republican ticket, but he's up head to head against the current president of the United States, joe Biden. So one of the things that will happen and this is sort of the strategy that these parties do have, and in the case of the Democrat Party, they are really seriously thinking about how do they get rid of Joe and make it look like he's done a great job and the country's in great shape, but he's just decided for the good of the country or the good of his family or whatever, whatever the excuse is and they bring somebody else in, and what they want is they want to do that timing very precisely so when it does happen, they can immediately get a boost in the polls. Ok, mark, my work. They're going to want to try to time it so they get an immediate boost in the polls and then that person runs to the Democrat a convention in July and during the convention, with no primaries, during the convention, they elect that person as their candidate going into the final horse race, going into November, really, from the, from the middle of the summer, into November. That's a dead sprint. Having been there before with Trump, that's a dead sprint. It's a hard fought. You know battle every single day, and so one of the things that we are looking at is from the framework of where we're standing today. This is where we're talking. I use the phrase guard the vote and I use the. I also sort of coined the term local action equals a national impact, because how do we get ourselves out of this mess?

We're in a mess. Well, we are in a mess. And the old age, old question are you better off now than you were four years ago? It's an easy answer. Hey, general, we got a minute left. I want you to tell our audience a lot of them are big fans of yours Talk about some of these books you've read and where people can go to get them, and let's show them.

So real, real quick. They can go to generalflincom. Generalflincom and the two latest, latest books are session one, citizen's guide to fifth generation warfare, and session two, how to fight artificial intelligence. Both of them are huge best sellers. You can get them on Barnes and Noble or Amazon or if you go to generalflincom, you can get them cheaper. We sell them a few dollars cheaper, but these, these are great books to have their great Christmas gifts, holiday gifts and they'll. They'll teach you what you need to know about the type of warfare that is being waged on us right now, this idea of fifth generation warfare. So I appreciate you allowing me to shamelessly plug those.

Well, generalflin. On behalf of everyone, thank you for being my guest today. God bless you and God bless the United States of America. Thank you for joining us today. This is a special interview is going to happen again, folks, and we will see you on Tuesday. Have a safe, successful weekend.

The world is about to shift. Banks are going cashless globally. With the emergence of central bank digital currency, which will bring with it programmable money and the ability to turn on or off your purchasing power based on your digital social profile, it's like the equivalent of spyware in your bank account. You need to get out of the system with the world's safest and most private assets silver and gold. Called Kirk Elliott, phd, 720, 605, 3900.
