It’s great to be able to talk about a movie actually shown at movie theaters across America that is at least somewhat conservative and anti-communist. Such a film is Reagan starring Dennis Quaid and John Voight. The film was written by Paul Kengor, a legitimate anti-communist author who wrote Dupes.
It is impossible for a movie to capture the complexities involved with a life and career like Reagan’s. I do not agree with the overarching assessment that the Cold War was “won,” by Reagan or anyone else, a controversial sentiment I briefly explain in this episode. I give some background concerning John Birch Society leader Congressman Larry McDonald, who was a passenger on a commercial airliner KAL-007, shot down by the Soviets during Reagan’s tenure.
The gulf between the critics and the audience on Rotten Tomatoes (audience 90+%, Critics, 20% or so) says it all about our elites. I am completely for promoting anticommunist, pro-conservative films and despite any other deficiencies I could identify, this movie qualifies. So go see it, its still in many theaters, or rent it.

From friend of the show, J.R. Nyquist, a voice of authority on the strategic deception of the U.S. by the USSR:

[00:00:07] It's midnight in America, and this is the Hour Of Decision.
[00:00:37] If our freedom was blessed by God, we will be too. If like them, we decide to fight.
[00:00:44] Against tyranny and corruption for Christ and Constitution.
[00:00:49] The Hour Of Decision with Lou Moore starts now.
[00:00:59] Welcome to Hour Of Decision. My name is Lou Moore.
[00:01:05] Well folks, wrong still rules the land, while waiting justice sleeps.
[00:01:13] And what prompts me to say that? Well, first of all, it's the motto on my website, loumoore.com.
[00:01:20] But secondly, I'm thinking about, oh, Pete Hegseth,
[00:01:25] President Trump's nominee for the Department Of Defense,
[00:01:29] a key nominee that President Trump has put forward.
[00:01:34] But as I said in a recent podcast, there's blood in the water now
[00:01:38] because these rhinos in the Senate and Trump's enemies were able to defeat his first
[00:01:45] and most important Cabinet nominee, Matt Gaetz, for Attorney General.
[00:01:52] And so with that blood in the water, that taste of blood that the predators around Trump have,
[00:01:59] now they're just going to try to pick him off one by one, folks.
[00:02:02] And the next one up in the chopping block is Pete Hegseth.
[00:02:06] And by the time you hear this show, I won't know Mr. Hegseth's fate.
[00:02:12] I hope he can hang in there.
[00:02:15] But let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, he'll be in the chopping block.
[00:02:19] Then it'll be Tulsi.
[00:02:21] Then it'll be Bobby Kennedy Jr.
[00:02:23] And of course, the big, big target that's kind of off the radar just at this precise moment
[00:02:30] as I'm recording this is Kash Patel at the FBI.
[00:02:34] They don't want him anywhere near the control panel.
[00:02:38] So we'll have to see what happens.
[00:02:40] But what is obvious, ladies and gentlemen, is that we have a severe rhino problem in the U.S. Senate.
[00:02:51] And, you know, as it was pointed out today on Charlie Kirk, something I point out all the time,
[00:02:57] living in Utah with people like Mitt Romney and now John Curtis representing us in the U.S. Senate,
[00:03:04] is that a lot of the most red states in America are the most corrupt and have the most corrupt Republican establishment
[00:03:14] sending the worst possible people to places like the U.S. Senate.
[00:03:20] I mean, we got a Nebraska problem.
[00:03:22] We have an Idaho problem.
[00:03:24] We have a problem, big problem in Alaska.
[00:03:28] We got a problem in Alabama.
[00:03:30] We got a problem in Mississippi, a big problem in Oklahoma.
[00:03:34] But we have Senator Lankford there that was all for allowing 5,000 illegal aliens across our border every day
[00:03:42] in that so-called bipartisan immigration deal that Trump killed,
[00:03:49] that he was continually remonstrated for during the campaign because he did kill it.
[00:03:56] But anyway, we got a big rhino problem in the U.S. Senate.
[00:04:01] Mitch McConnell from Kentucky, another solid red state, another traitor to our cause, causing us nothing but problems.
[00:04:10] John Thune from South Dakota, totally a red state, folks.
[00:04:14] Kramer up in North Dakota.
[00:04:16] Mike Rounds, North Dakota.
[00:04:18] These people aren't with us.
[00:04:20] We can't trust them at all.
[00:04:22] And they're one by one trying to torpedo either publicly or behind the scenes.
[00:04:30] Many of these people are trying to torpedo President Trump's picks.
[00:04:35] So we got an ongoing problem.
[00:04:37] This fight's just beginning, folks.
[00:04:40] This fight, the fact Donald Trump won, signaled that the fight is just beginning.
[00:04:46] And this is obviously the case.
[00:04:49] And then there's Mar-a-Lago.
[00:04:51] We got some Mar-a-Lago problems, too, folks.
[00:04:54] They appointed, they put forward this Sheriff Chronister from Florida to be the head of the DEA.
[00:05:01] This guy's a fascist.
[00:05:03] He was terrible.
[00:05:04] Now, Trump's pulled his nomination.
[00:05:06] But why in the hell was his name ever put forward?
[00:05:10] As soon as Trump found out what this guy had done with the lockdowns, his persecution of pastors, his DEI policies, he pulled the plug on this guy.
[00:05:19] But why was his name ever put forward?
[00:05:22] Big problems in Mar-a-Lago as well.
[00:05:25] And I've heard there's a little grousing about Pete Headset from Suzy Wiles.
[00:05:31] Now, I hope that's not the case.
[00:05:33] But we got enemies on every side.
[00:05:36] And someone else that had enemies on every side was the last great Republican president, Ronald Reagan.
[00:05:43] And we're going to do a hour of decision replay today, folks.
[00:05:48] We're going to do a replay of a podcast, one of the last podcasts I did before I got my show here on Liberty News Radio.
[00:05:56] So we're going to replay my review of the movie Reagan because now it's out for home viewing.
[00:06:03] And if you didn't see it at the theater, if you haven't seen it already at home, I highly recommend that you do.
[00:06:12] Reagan suffered from a lot of the same things that Trump is now.
[00:06:15] People around him that weren't with him.
[00:06:18] Senators that didn't want to cut the budget.
[00:06:20] And then there was the Bush family.
[00:06:22] But we're going to talk about that in the episode.
[00:06:26] So here we go.
[00:06:28] Ronald Reagan, the movie.
[00:06:30] My name is Lou Moore.
[00:06:33] Tonight, we're going to talk about going to the movies.
[00:06:37] That might seem a little incongruous after what I just read to you.
[00:06:40] But actually, if you remember my podcast about direct action, about doing something rather than just talking.
[00:06:49] One of the things I suggested is that you make sure that you and the family have a little time to have some fun to get out.
[00:06:58] But also to support patriots in music, in the arts, and making movies.
[00:07:06] And there seems to be a few of them now.
[00:07:09] Pretty amazing.
[00:07:10] So tonight we're going to talk about one of those movies, the movie Reagan.
[00:07:15] The establishment evidently was able to delay the release of the new movie Reagan for over two years.
[00:07:25] Their punishment for this typical left-wing, holly-weird censorship behavior was the release of this pro-Reagan film in the heat of the presidential election of 2024.
[00:07:41] Another aspect of the establishment versus the people drama is simmering on the movie review website Rotten Tomatoes.
[00:07:52] Which features one rating by the expert critics and the other one produced by the movie goers who watch the film in question.
[00:08:02] In this case, we have the whitest gulf ever, ever registered on Rotten Tomatoes between the uber-left critics and the public.
[00:08:13] The critics are rating the film somewhere around a lowly 20% approval, while the public is registering a whopping 98% approval.
[00:08:25] The film is written by Paul Kengor, a credible anti-communist conservative.
[00:08:33] He authored the book Dupes, which is about the communists and sympathizers in the government and the film industry, among other places, in a bygone era.
[00:08:46] The communist Dupes and Kengor's books, a book, excuse me, were likely the grandparents or the parents of many of these professional critics we just mentioned,
[00:09:01] who are giving the Reagan film the terrible rating, that rating from the experts.
[00:09:09] Well, there's plenty of star power in this movie, starting with Dennis Quaid, as Ronald Reagan, and John Voight, as a retired KGB agent,
[00:09:20] who explains to a young Putin type why the former president kicked their butt in the supposed end of the Cold War.
[00:09:30] But this, in fact, is the center of the story told here.
[00:09:35] Reagan's confrontation with the former USSR.
[00:09:40] But before we see our hero growing up, before that, excuse me, we see our hero, Ronald Reagan, growing up in a small Midwestern town,
[00:09:53] inculcated with Christian values by his pious mother.
[00:09:57] We see his unsuccessful marriage to the worldly actress Jane Wyman and his transition from a B or maybe a B plus actor to the presidency of the Screen Actors Guild,
[00:10:13] which is kind of the union for the actors and actresses, although we're not supposed to say that.
[00:10:19] We're just supposed to say actors now in Hollywood.
[00:10:22] Ronald Reagan's time as an entertainment union president in Hollywood affords us a peek into the big fight going on throughout America
[00:10:33] against the domestic communist menace at the end of World War II,
[00:10:39] which was frequently behind communist strikes, including in Hollywood.
[00:10:46] Actors, directors, etc., who whined about being singled out as Stalinists supporting dupes or as communists,
[00:10:59] were happy to participate in an entertainment industry culture that then and now routinely destroys the careers of conservatives,
[00:11:10] of Christians, of patriots.
[00:11:13] Just ask Jim Caviezel.
[00:11:17] Just ask Jim Caviezel.
[00:11:19] Who was the lead star?
[00:11:21] A rising star, having a meteoric rise in Hollywood.
[00:11:26] Who was the central figure, the star of the movie The Passion of the Christ?
[00:11:31] Which, ladies and gentlemen, is the largest grossing film ever?
[00:11:36] Well, after that movie was made, which the certain antichrist forces in Hollywood, which basically is Hollywood,
[00:11:46] boycotted him, prevented him from even getting a role for years after he did this tremendously successful movie.
[00:11:55] Yeah, these people whining.
[00:11:57] You might have seen the movie.
[00:11:59] I believe there is a movie.
[00:12:00] There's certainly a narrative about the Hollywood 10, the poor Hollywood 10.
[00:12:08] These people who were supporting Joseph Stalin, who were actors and screenwriters,
[00:12:16] who were supposedly boycotted by the evil and mean-spirited owners of movie studios in Hollywood.
[00:12:26] But, folks, you know, the details are a little bit different in every one of their cases.
[00:12:31] They're all different.
[00:12:34] They're all human.
[00:12:36] But it pales in comparison with the ongoing, current blackballing of conservatives, of Christians,
[00:12:48] in the non-Christian Hollywood culture and Hollywood movie industry.
[00:12:56] I wish the film would have included a sample.
[00:12:59] Now, going back to the strike that Ronald Reagan had to deal with as president of the Screen Actors Guild,
[00:13:07] I wish the film would have included a sample of the many phone calls that actor,
[00:13:14] and later John Birch Society member, John Wayne, made to Nancy Reagan to cheer her up
[00:13:21] after the most recent press smear attack on her anti-communist husband.
[00:13:28] Ladies and gentlemen, the newspapers in Los Angeles, just like the press is today, actually,
[00:13:35] the corporate mainstream press, were constantly attacking Reagan because he was standing up to the communists.
[00:13:46] The love story with wife Nancy in the movie is given full flower.
[00:13:50] The film then rather quickly moves on to Reagan's beginnings in the GOP and conservative politics
[00:13:59] and alludes to and has a scene involving the speech.
[00:14:04] The speech was, of course, Ronald Reagan's televised 30-minute last-minute plea for the Barry Goldwater campaign in 1964,
[00:14:17] which was entitled Rendezvous with Destiny.
[00:14:22] I talk about the speech in my Goldwater episode, and I again demand that you watch it on Rumble or YouTube.
[00:14:33] I'm sure you can pull it up in just a minute.
[00:14:35] Ronald Reagan's speech, Rendezvous with Destiny.
[00:14:38] It runs about 28 minutes.
[00:14:42] 1964, folks.
[00:14:44] Same issues we're dealing with today.
[00:14:46] The same situation in 1964.
[00:14:49] So in the film, Reagan is shown with, which was in real life, a group that was called his Kitchen Cabinet,
[00:14:59] a well-heeled Southern California businessman who financed his successful run for governor of California.
[00:15:08] So just to keep the timeline straight here, Ronald Reagan was in the Screen Actors Guild.
[00:15:14] He became the president of the Screen Actors Guild.
[00:15:17] Then years later, he got involved in Barry Goldwater's campaign in 1964, went all over speaking and campaigning for Goldwater,
[00:15:27] and then made this speech, which was carried on national evening television.
[00:15:33] The Goldwater campaign bought 30 minutes of prime time in the era where there was just the three networks,
[00:15:39] ABC, NBC, and CBS.
[00:15:43] And they bought time, I believe, on all three of these networks.
[00:15:48] One of them for sure.
[00:15:49] I mean, it was carried in prime time, 30-minute speech promoting Goldwater's campaign.
[00:15:55] So that happened.
[00:15:57] And then after that, immediately, Reagan decided to run for governor of California two years later in 1966.
[00:16:05] So he's shown in the movie here with some of his backers, some of his financial backers who helped him run for and then become the governor of California.
[00:16:17] I don't really like how the scene makes it seem like Reagan is suddenly appearing in the Goldwater campaign just to vault himself into the political arena himself.
[00:16:28] Didn't happen that way, folks.
[00:16:31] The truth was that Reagan was a mainstay at conservative and anti-communist rallies, particularly some of the huge, we're talking 20, 30,000 people attending rallies at the Hollywood Bowl in Orange County
[00:16:48] and in other places in California that had been taking place for years.
[00:16:54] This is the emergence, folks, of the John Birch Society.
[00:16:57] This is the emergence of Cleon Skousen's book, The Naked Communist.
[00:17:02] This is the big wave, this big wave of anti-communist, pro-American, pro-free enterprise, nationalist fervor that culminated in the Goldwater movement and the Goldwater campaign of 64,
[00:17:20] which I talk about a lot because I do a whole podcast on the Goldwater campaign of 64.
[00:17:25] So Reagan was a mainstay for several years in this movement.
[00:17:31] And it's actually kind of funny.
[00:17:34] They show him doorbelling, which is a little bit incongruous.
[00:17:38] I don't know how much doorbelling Ronald Reagan actually did, but they show him doorbelling as he's running for governor of California in the 1966 campaign.
[00:17:48] And he goes, hello, my name's Ronald Reagan.
[00:17:53] And the gal goes, dear, dear, Roy Rogers is at the door, which is kind of funny, but RR.
[00:18:01] But in fact, I have a photo of Reagan at an anti-communist rally in 1961 in Orange County with none other than Roy Rogers.
[00:18:12] So there you go.
[00:18:13] Anyway, he also, a lot of people don't know this.
[00:18:17] A lot of people don't really know the history of Reagan.
[00:18:19] We're going to do a whole podcast on this, folks.
[00:18:21] It's just one or two on Ronald Reagan and his place in the conservative firmament and his place as a president of the United States of America.
[00:18:32] But after he was president of the Screen Actors Guild and after he really struggled himself with his career, after taking a firm stand against the communists as the president of the Screen Actors Guild,
[00:18:47] he got a gig with General Electric, GE, to go around the country and go around all the big plants they had at the time in California to speak about the American system,
[00:19:00] to speak about the free enterprise system.
[00:19:04] Now, GE has a checkered past, to say the least.
[00:19:09] But, you know, I don't always know myself how to explain all these things.
[00:19:13] But there was an executive at GE by the name of Leonard Boulware, B-O-U-L-W-A, if I remember correctly.
[00:19:23] I actually don't have that in front of me.
[00:19:26] And he was a vice president.
[00:19:28] He was high up.
[00:19:29] He wasn't the head of GE, but he was a senior executive at GE who was a militant anti-communist and free enterprise advocate, best we can tell.
[00:19:43] And it was Boulware that brought Ronald Reagan in to speak to workers in the factory.
[00:19:50] And they loved him.
[00:19:53] They loved hearing Ronald Reagan speak.
[00:19:55] And Reagan did so much of this speaking, he became really, really good at speaking.
[00:20:02] And that's why they called him later the great communicator and possibly the greatest communicator of the conservative message,
[00:20:12] at least the message that was given to the public in the early 1960s, which is still a whole lot of my belief system and not entirely.
[00:20:25] I might say not even close.
[00:20:27] But anyway, I'm a little torn on that one.
[00:20:29] But Reagan, a great articulator of the free enterprise system of freedom of the Constitution and of confronting communism, just as Barry Goldwater did, just as he believed.
[00:20:46] Reagan was totally against the establishment consensus of the time that I talk about in several podcasts, the Fabian socialist consensus that was a mainstay of the leadership of both Republican parties,
[00:21:04] really limiting the debate in the presidential elections of several cycles, that consensus that we believed in larger government, ever bigger government at home,
[00:21:16] using government to solve more and more of our problems, and being opposed to communism overseas, but being against confronting communism.
[00:21:28] Just trying to contain communism was supposed to be the right answer.
[00:21:32] The whole doctrine of containment, which if you listen to any number of my podcasts, you know, I absolutely hate the doctrine of containment.
[00:21:43] It came from the pit of hell, and it was used by the Fabian socialists in control of our country to pretend like they were anti-communists without doing anything about communism.
[00:21:56] So, like Goldwater, Reagan was an opponent of this idea of containment.
[00:22:02] And, of course, that's going to play out here as we continue.
[00:22:06] So, he was making these speeches for GE, and then he started transitioning into very much more political speech-making and speaking before large rallies,
[00:22:17] which were going on all over, particularly all over California, over the issues of the UN, world government,
[00:22:25] and of freedom, of censorship, of what they did to Joe McCarthy, all of these things that, you know, led eventually to the MAGA movement and to the campaign of Donald Trump.
[00:22:38] So, Reagan was very involved in that.
[00:22:41] And so, then, in the film, I've wandered away from the film a little bit, haven't I?
[00:22:46] But, anyway, so, you know, they show him speaking a little bit, you know, with the GE folk.
[00:22:52] And then they show him becoming governor of California.
[00:22:58] And then his struggle to win the White House, which he ran briefly in 1968.
[00:23:06] That was a last-minute effort, a stop Nixon type of effort that was unsuccessful.
[00:23:12] We'll go over that when I do my podcast on Reagan.
[00:23:15] But he went to the wall in 1976 against Gerald Ford.
[00:23:21] Came up short in 1976.
[00:23:25] Full court press by the establishment to keep Reagan out.
[00:23:28] And then, of course, as we know, after a sputtering start, when he got rid of his moderate internationalist campaign manager, John Sears, in 1980, he then won and became our president.
[00:23:44] So, you know, not long after he became president, there was an attempt on Reagan's life, which was depicted in the movie.
[00:23:52] And then there was a little veiled reference to George Bush, alter ego, James Ego, excuse me, James Baker III, a Bush guy, assuming the role of chief of staff at the White House for Reagan.
[00:24:07] And as I've already mentioned in a couple of my podcasts, and we'll talk about this quite a bit more,
[00:24:13] the Bush people, basically the entire term of Ronald Reagan, were pushing out the loyal Reagan people.
[00:24:20] And then when Bush was elected, he ruthlessly got rid of all the rest of them and any senior positions.
[00:24:28] And staffing is very important.
[00:24:33] You're listening to Hour of Decision on Liberty News Radio.
[00:24:37] And we'll be right back after the news.
[00:24:43] Welcome back to Hour of Decision.
[00:24:46] My name is Lou Moore.
[00:24:48] And we've been listening to a replay, an Hour of Decision replay.
[00:24:52] I did this, taped this podcast in October, a review of the movie Reagan.
[00:24:59] Of course, I digress a little bit and talk about my hero, Lurie McDonald, about the Cold War and a few other things.
[00:25:05] But I hope you're enjoying and will continue to enjoy this review of the movie Reagan.
[00:25:11] As we've talked about before, personnel is policy.
[00:25:16] Bush is only mentioned very briefly himself in this show.
[00:25:21] But we do get into the Iran-Contra situation and the war against the Sandinistas and Nicaragua.
[00:25:30] It's covered in some length.
[00:25:31] So despite a full-blown incursion on the part of the USSR into our hemisphere, into Nicaragua through the Sandinistas,
[00:25:43] the Democrats in Congress absolutely refuse to spend any resources on fighting it,
[00:25:51] forcing Reagan to come up with creative alternatives to fund the Nicaraguan resistance known as the Contras.
[00:26:02] And what we're going to talk about at length in a couple of episodes,
[00:26:07] we're going to talk about this with Reagan, but I'm going to do a whole episode, folks,
[00:26:12] on who are the ones promoting getting drugs, pushing drugs into the United States.
[00:26:22] It's the left-wing narrative, the former USSR narrative, the communist Chinese narrative,
[00:26:31] and unfortunately, the narrative now of too many patriots who have been sucked into all of this anti-CIA propaganda.
[00:26:40] There is some real problems with the CIA.
[00:26:43] But this basically communist propaganda that it was the CIA that was behind all of the drugs,
[00:26:49] and that's how the cartels got started, and blah, blah, blah.
[00:26:52] It's not only a lot more complicated than that, folks.
[00:26:56] Basically, if you're going to point the finger at one element that brought drugs to America,
[00:27:02] you need to be looking at the communists.
[00:27:05] This, Zhao An-Lai was bragging about this to Henry Kissinger when they were preparing for Nixon to go over there.
[00:27:13] This is, it's a stone-cold fact, folks.
[00:27:15] It's not refutable.
[00:27:17] And again, just like with the Kennedy assassination.
[00:27:20] Oh, no.
[00:27:21] You're just a fool if you thought the communists did.
[00:27:24] It was our own evil government did.
[00:27:26] It was all these evil people in America.
[00:27:27] And again, another complicated situation.
[00:27:31] But this idea that, oh, the communists didn't really do anything wrong.
[00:27:35] You know, this one book.
[00:27:37] Well, it's a two-volume set.
[00:27:40] But as a name, I'm turning around in my library here.
[00:27:44] I actually don't see those two books right now.
[00:27:47] I'll get back to them because they have this whole narrative about all this chicanery
[00:27:55] and all this evil doing and wrong thinking on the part of the business establishment in America,
[00:28:02] all these Jewish liquor barons and all these other people.
[00:28:05] There's not a word about the communists in this whole book.
[00:28:09] Maybe there's a little problem with that narrative.
[00:28:12] Anyhow, so I'm going to put a little marker right there.
[00:28:16] And this whole question of who was funding the Contras, you know, the cocaine.
[00:28:21] There was cocaine coming into the MENA airport.
[00:28:23] Bill Clinton was involved with it, no doubt, in my mind.
[00:28:29] But the base origin, you look at the Medellin cartel,
[00:28:33] you look at the other big cartel they had down there in Colombia,
[00:28:37] and you move up to the Sinaloa cartel when the center of gravity of these cartels moved to Mexico.
[00:28:45] There's communists all over this thing, folks.
[00:28:48] Just going to tell you right now.
[00:28:49] Now, anyhow, there's a little bit of a depiction in there of, you know,
[00:28:55] Reagan dealing with that, trying to fund an anti-communist resistance,
[00:29:00] which was successful for a while in Nicaragua.
[00:29:05] Unfortunately, the Sandinistas are again in power.
[00:29:08] Daniel Ortega, he doesn't call himself a Sandinista anymore,
[00:29:12] but he's still as red as they get.
[00:29:15] But Reagan fought communism.
[00:29:17] He really did.
[00:29:18] He really tried to fix a lot of big, big problems.
[00:29:23] Our establishment brought to our door as the American people that we've had to suffer for.
[00:29:30] While that was mentioned, there was another incident in that movie.
[00:29:34] The downing of KAL-007, which was a commercial flight to Seoul, South Korea from the United States,
[00:29:43] which was shot down by a Soviet missile.
[00:29:47] That caused a little bit of a problem because, diplomatically,
[00:29:52] because among other things, there was a sitting congressman,
[00:29:55] a United States congressman on flight KAL-007.
[00:30:02] His name was Larry McDonald, a Democrat,
[00:30:05] but a very conservative and constitutionalist Democrat from the state of Georgia.
[00:30:13] Larry McDonald, to say the least, was not just another Washington, D.C. politician.
[00:30:19] I'm going to identify him right now, folks, as one of my heroes.
[00:30:24] Larry McDonald was a great, great American.
[00:30:31] And he was, at the time, he had just been put in place three months before this flight,
[00:30:37] before this flight was shot down, and he either died or was disappeared into the Soviet gulag system.
[00:30:47] He was the chairman of the John Birch Society,
[00:30:50] which I've also mentioned on a few podcasts.
[00:30:52] Yes, I just mentioned them a minute ago.
[00:30:56] Birchers, a militant, anti-communist, and anti-Soviet, at that time, organization in the United States.
[00:31:04] And they're still around, and I like them.
[00:31:07] So, possibly of more importance than McDonald's leadership in the John Birch Society,
[00:31:15] was his leadership in another organization called Western Goals Foundation.
[00:31:21] And the purpose of the Western Goals Foundation was to recover and save,
[00:31:27] in as many cases as possible.
[00:31:30] Government files on domestic communists.
[00:31:36] After taking out Senator Joe McCarthy's,
[00:31:41] after they took out Senator Joe McCarthy,
[00:31:45] communist-friendly members of Congress launched an all-out war
[00:31:49] against both the House Un-American Activities Committee,
[00:31:53] also called HUAC,
[00:31:55] and the Senate Internal Security Committee,
[00:31:58] as well as any investigations from other Senate committees,
[00:32:02] like McCarthy's, the Oversight Committee in the Senate.
[00:32:05] And at the same time, this attack was occurring,
[00:32:09] and this attack eventually was successful, folks.
[00:32:12] They shut these investigations down.
[00:32:15] At the same time, leftists,
[00:32:18] now taking over every big city government around the country,
[00:32:22] and leftists going farther and farther to the left,
[00:32:25] and more and more under the thrall of the communists,
[00:32:29] were destroying and closing police agencies
[00:32:33] that they used to call red squads,
[00:32:35] which were groups of law enforcement people in the cities
[00:32:39] that were keeping tabs on subversives within their city limits,
[00:32:44] and keeping extensive files
[00:32:47] on communists and communist-adjacent agitators
[00:32:52] within their cities.
[00:32:54] So these files were being destroyed,
[00:32:56] all these paper trails leading,
[00:32:59] leading to the thousands of communists
[00:33:02] that were embedded in our society around the country.

[00:34:03] The Path to State and Local Sovereignty.
[00:34:07] That's where it's going to be at, folks.
[00:34:09] State and local sovereignty.
[00:34:11] If we're going to save this nation,
[00:34:12] we've got to return power to the people at the local level.
[00:34:16] It's the best way to defend ourselves
[00:34:19] against those nasty powers that be.
[00:34:22] So you can hear The Path to State and Local Sovereignty
[00:34:25] on News for America at newsforamerica.org.
[00:34:30] So with the post-Watergate atmosphere in America
[00:34:36] of distrust of government
[00:34:38] and the church committee investigations,
[00:34:42] by the way, folks,
[00:34:44] I am not a fan of Frank Church in any regard.
[00:34:48] His chief of staff was a communist.
[00:34:52] I think you're Bernard Christensen,
[00:34:54] I don't remember her name now,
[00:34:55] but she's an ultra-left-winger.
[00:34:56] And church right there with her.
[00:35:00] This was an earlier day in Idaho,
[00:35:02] not like the people they're generally electing now.
[00:35:06] Now they're electing rhinos.
[00:35:08] Then they were electing straight-up ultra-lefties.
[00:35:11] But the church committee hearings
[00:35:14] created an atmosphere where the pro-communists in America
[00:35:18] started pushing very hard.
[00:35:19] They were attacking the CIA,
[00:35:21] going after the FBI and the CIA and all that.
[00:35:23] But that's when the push really became very hard
[00:35:27] to get rid of the House Un-American Activities Committee
[00:35:31] and the Senate Internal Security Committee,
[00:35:35] the two principal vehicles to investigate the left
[00:35:40] and to investigate communist activities
[00:35:43] within the borders of the United States.
[00:35:47] And this push led also to the destruction of evidence
[00:35:51] involving thousands of suspects,
[00:35:54] as I just mentioned, on these red squads.
[00:35:58] And Western Goals,
[00:35:59] Larry McDonald's group Western Goals,
[00:36:02] worked very closely with anti-communists
[00:36:05] in the Reagan administration to fill the void.
[00:36:08] Left by the end, essentially, effectively,
[00:36:13] the end of communist investigations,
[00:36:16] and to save the files that had been accumulated
[00:36:19] from these investigations,
[00:36:22] this was the extremely important work
[00:36:24] McDonald was involved with
[00:36:26] when he was killed by the Soviet communists.
[00:36:30] Both the long-term educational mission
[00:36:33] of the John Birch Society,
[00:36:35] education being the principal activity
[00:36:39] of the Birch Society.
[00:36:41] And by the way, folks,
[00:36:42] they have been right about just about everything.
[00:36:45] And this more immediate task
[00:36:48] that McDonald was involved with,
[00:36:50] of protecting intelligence files,
[00:36:53] vital to the effort to defeat domestic communism,
[00:36:57] made McDonald an understandable target
[00:37:00] of the communists,
[00:37:01] of the world communist movement.
[00:37:04] So, McDonald, without question,
[00:37:06] was an asset of the administration,
[00:37:09] of the Reagan administration,
[00:37:11] in their war against the Soviets.
[00:37:14] And the Soviets, because of that,
[00:37:17] directly took him out of that war,
[00:37:19] took McDonald out.
[00:37:21] So, I will now state something
[00:37:23] very controversial
[00:37:26] about Reagan, Reagan's efforts,
[00:37:29] and the Reagan administration.
[00:37:32] From the right,
[00:37:33] there's been this celebration.
[00:37:35] Of course, I mean,
[00:37:37] we're talking now 30 years,
[00:37:40] over 30 years.
[00:37:41] But this celebration
[00:37:43] of the defeat of communism by Reagan
[00:37:45] and the, quote,
[00:37:47] end of the Cold War, unquote.
[00:37:50] Didn't happen, folks.
[00:37:52] Just flat out,
[00:37:54] did not happen.
[00:37:55] Yes, the USSR,
[00:37:58] the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics,
[00:38:01] dissolved,
[00:38:02] and KGB assets and operatives
[00:38:06] took over virtually
[00:38:07] every one of the former
[00:38:09] sub-former Soviet republics
[00:38:13] in short order,
[00:38:14] and they took over Russia
[00:38:16] in the form of spymaster
[00:38:19] Vladimir Putin.
[00:38:21] Essentially, the KGB
[00:38:23] just replaced
[00:38:24] the Communist Party itself
[00:38:25] as the ruling force
[00:38:27] over both Russia
[00:38:29] and, to a large degree,
[00:38:31] Russia's sphere of influence,
[00:38:33] its former republics.
[00:38:36] In the GOP,
[00:38:38] the Reagan celebration
[00:38:39] of the end of the Cold War
[00:38:41] was attributed,
[00:38:43] and attributed in the
[00:38:44] corporate media,
[00:38:46] to Reagan's aggressive buildup
[00:38:49] of the U.S. military,
[00:38:50] a very expensive buildup,
[00:38:53] and that the USSR realized,
[00:38:57] oh, they just wouldn't
[00:38:58] be able to keep up.
[00:38:59] Suddenly, they realized this.
[00:39:01] This argument
[00:39:02] is only partially true
[00:39:05] at best.
[00:39:07] The truth is,
[00:39:08] Reagan,
[00:39:09] through his national security advisor,
[00:39:11] Richard Allen,
[00:39:13] and through Reynolds Robinson,
[00:39:15] who worked for Richard Allen,
[00:39:17] cut off
[00:39:19] all the economic
[00:39:20] largess
[00:39:21] the USSR
[00:39:22] was receiving
[00:39:24] from both
[00:39:25] the U.S. government,
[00:39:26] if you can believe it, folks,
[00:39:28] finance critics,
[00:39:29] and from corporate America.
[00:39:32] So, we're talking
[00:39:33] primarily
[00:39:34] credits,
[00:39:35] capital
[00:39:36] for the USSR,
[00:39:39] and technology
[00:39:40] transfers.
[00:39:42] Galitzen,
[00:39:42] as I stated
[00:39:43] in my podcast
[00:39:44] on the Fabians,
[00:39:45] and the
[00:39:47] let me start over
[00:39:48] with that sentence,
[00:39:49] as I stated
[00:39:50] in my podcast
[00:39:51] on the Fabians,
[00:39:53] and on the one
[00:39:54] I did
[00:39:54] on Vietnam,
[00:39:56] big U.S.
[00:39:57] corporations
[00:39:57] have propped up
[00:39:59] and strengthened
[00:40:00] the USSR
[00:40:02] communists
[00:40:03] from the time
[00:40:04] of Lenin.
[00:40:05] It's an unbroken
[00:40:06] line, folks,
[00:40:08] of support
[00:40:09] coming from
[00:40:09] our corporate
[00:40:10] masters
[00:40:11] to
[00:40:12] the communists
[00:40:13] in Russia.
[00:40:15] These efforts
[00:40:16] choked off
[00:40:17] resources
[00:40:18] to the evil
[00:40:19] empire.
[00:40:19] These efforts
[00:40:20] of Ronald Reagan's
[00:40:22] administration
[00:40:23] had forced
[00:40:24] the communists
[00:40:25] running
[00:40:26] that administration
[00:40:27] in Moscow
[00:40:28] to go to
[00:40:29] a plan B,
[00:40:31] so to speak.
[00:40:32] It's described
[00:40:33] in detail
[00:40:34] by a book
[00:40:35] by,
[00:40:36] and now I will
[00:40:37] say his name,
[00:40:38] Anatoly Golitsyn,
[00:40:40] a defector.
[00:40:41] The book
[00:40:42] was called
[00:40:42] New Lies
[00:40:43] for Old.
[00:40:45] Golitsyn,
[00:40:45] a highly
[00:40:46] placed
[00:40:46] Soviet
[00:40:47] intelligence
[00:40:48] officer,
[00:40:49] wrote a book
[00:40:50] after he
[00:40:51] defected to
[00:40:52] the United
[00:40:52] States
[00:40:52] called
[00:40:53] New Lies
[00:40:54] for Old.
[00:40:55] And what
[00:40:56] he stated
[00:40:57] in this book
[00:40:58] was that
[00:40:59] they had
[00:41:00] a plan
[00:41:00] to dissolve
[00:41:02] the Soviet
[00:41:03] Union,
[00:41:04] a mass
[00:41:05] deception,
[00:41:06] and create
[00:41:08] a different
[00:41:09] type of
[00:41:09] entity
[00:41:10] to continue
[00:41:11] their efforts
[00:41:13] at world
[00:41:14] domination.
[00:41:15] And the
[00:41:15] most interesting
[00:41:16] thing about
[00:41:17] this book,
[00:41:17] folks,
[00:41:18] is it was
[00:41:19] written and
[00:41:20] published
[00:41:21] several years
[00:41:22] before this
[00:41:24] plan was
[00:41:25] essentially put
[00:41:26] into place.
[00:41:26] I read this
[00:41:27] book in,
[00:41:28] I think,
[00:41:29] 1985,
[00:41:30] and we're
[00:41:31] talking 1989,
[00:41:32] -1990,
[00:41:34] before we
[00:41:34] saw the
[00:41:35] quote-unquote
[00:41:36] fall of the
[00:41:38] Soviet Union.
[00:41:39] And this
[00:41:39] is a topic
[00:41:41] that could
[00:41:41] take many
[00:41:42] podcasts,
[00:41:43] but there
[00:41:44] are more
[00:41:45] than a few
[00:41:45] writers that
[00:41:47] are onto
[00:41:47] this,
[00:41:48] onto what
[00:41:49] happened in
[00:41:51] Russia,
[00:41:51] and they're
[00:41:52] onto Putin,
[00:41:53] folks,
[00:41:54] and not a
[00:41:55] fan of
[00:41:55] Putin,
[00:41:56] not a fan
[00:41:57] of Russia
[00:41:58] under Putin,
[00:42:00] and they've
[00:42:00] worked with
[00:42:01] the Chinese,
[00:42:01] unbroken
[00:42:02] chain of
[00:42:03] an alliance
[00:42:05] with the
[00:42:05] Chinese,
[00:42:06] despite what
[00:42:06] you've heard
[00:42:07] about that
[00:42:07] topic.
[00:42:08] And,
[00:42:09] of course,
[00:42:09] that continues
[00:42:10] in earnest
[00:42:11] to this
[00:42:12] day.
[00:42:14] But those
[00:42:15] efforts were
[00:42:16] triggered by
[00:42:16] Reagan.
[00:42:18] His military
[00:42:19] buildup,
[00:42:19] a small
[00:42:20] factor,
[00:42:20] but the
[00:42:21] primary factor
[00:42:22] was cutting
[00:42:23] off the
[00:42:23] money to
[00:42:25] where the
[00:42:25] USSR
[00:42:26] couldn't
[00:42:27] function,
[00:42:27] because they've
[00:42:28] always been a
[00:42:29] tool,
[00:42:29] ultimately,
[00:42:30] in the big,
[00:42:31] big picture,
[00:42:32] of our
[00:42:33] corporate
[00:42:35] masters.
[00:42:36] And so,
[00:42:37] this is the
[00:42:38] backstory and
[00:42:39] the backdrop,
[00:42:40] and it's why
[00:42:41] the Cold War
[00:42:42] wasn't over
[00:42:43] when the
[00:42:45] USSR
[00:42:45] fell.
[00:42:47] So,
[00:42:48] but the
[00:42:49] convenience now,
[00:42:50] I want to talk
[00:42:51] about the
[00:42:51] convenience,
[00:42:52] and we'll get
[00:42:53] back to this
[00:42:53] topic in
[00:42:54] earnest,
[00:42:55] in more than
[00:42:56] a few podcasts.
[00:42:57] I'm going to
[00:42:57] link to this
[00:42:58] book,
[00:42:58] New Lies
[00:42:58] for Old,
[00:42:59] if you want
[00:42:59] to check it
[00:43:00] out for
[00:43:01] yourself,
[00:43:02] by Anatoly
[00:43:03] Golitsyn.
[00:43:04] But there
[00:43:05] was a great
[00:43:05] amount of
[00:43:06] convenience on
[00:43:07] our side,
[00:43:08] not just
[00:43:08] saying that
[00:43:09] the Cold War
[00:43:10] was over,
[00:43:10] it was very
[00:43:11] convenient for
[00:43:11] the Republicans.
[00:43:12] Yay,
[00:43:13] Republicans,
[00:43:13] we crushed
[00:43:14] the Soviet
[00:43:15] Union,
[00:43:16] we won,
[00:43:17] total victory.
[00:43:18] I mean,
[00:43:19] there was
[00:43:19] reasons for
[00:43:20] some people
[00:43:20] to want to
[00:43:21] say that,
[00:43:22] but in a
[00:43:23] little bit
[00:43:23] bigger picture,
[00:43:24] there's a
[00:43:24] reason to
[00:43:25] say that
[00:43:26] it was the
[00:43:26] military
[00:43:27] buildup.
[00:43:29] The
[00:43:29] military
[00:43:30] buildup,
[00:43:30] the big
[00:43:31] infusion
[00:43:31] of cash
[00:43:32] into our
[00:43:33] military
[00:43:33] industrial
[00:43:34] complex,
[00:43:35] to use
[00:43:37] that narrative
[00:43:37] to explain
[00:43:38] why there
[00:43:39] was the
[00:43:39] collapse
[00:43:40] of the
[00:43:41] Soviet
[00:43:41] Union.
[00:43:42] And the
[00:43:43] first reason
[00:43:44] for using
[00:43:44] that was
[00:43:45] that it
[00:43:46] hides the
[00:43:47] role of
[00:43:47] U.S.
[00:43:48] big business
[00:43:48] in working
[00:43:49] with Moscow.
[00:43:50] And by
[00:43:51] the way,
[00:43:52] Richard Allen,
[00:43:54] the national
[00:43:54] security advisor
[00:43:56] who worked
[00:43:57] this for
[00:43:57] Reagan,
[00:43:58] who broke
[00:43:59] the code
[00:43:59] on this,
[00:44:00] who figured
[00:44:01] out,
[00:44:01] duh,
[00:44:02] cut off
[00:44:02] their money
[00:44:03] and they're
[00:44:04] not going
[00:44:05] to be able
[00:44:05] to continue
[00:44:06] operating as
[00:44:07] they have
[00:44:07] been,
[00:44:08] he was
[00:44:09] pushed out
[00:44:10] as James
[00:44:12] Baker III
[00:44:13] and other
[00:44:14] Bush elements
[00:44:15] gained more
[00:44:16] and more
[00:44:17] power in
[00:44:17] the Reagan
[00:44:18] administration.
[00:44:20] He was
[00:44:21] pushed out,
[00:44:22] folks,
[00:44:22] before the
[00:44:23] Reagan
[00:44:23] administration
[00:44:24] ended.
[00:44:24] He was
[00:44:25] one of the
[00:44:26] real heroes
[00:44:27] of this
[00:44:27] whole situation.
[00:44:29] So it
[00:44:30] hides the
[00:44:30] role of
[00:44:31] U.S.
[00:44:31] big business
[00:44:32] to say
[00:44:32] it was a
[00:44:33] military
[00:44:33] buildup
[00:44:34] rather than
[00:44:35] it was
[00:44:36] big business
[00:44:36] working with
[00:44:37] Moscow
[00:44:38] that ended,
[00:44:39] that was
[00:44:40] disrupted.
[00:44:40] It didn't
[00:44:41] end,
[00:44:42] but it
[00:44:42] was disrupted
[00:44:42] and that
[00:44:43] was the
[00:44:44] principal
[00:44:44] reason.
[00:44:46] Touting
[00:44:47] the military
[00:44:48] buildup
[00:44:49] as an
[00:44:49] explanation
[00:44:50] touts
[00:44:51] spending
[00:44:51] a lot
[00:44:52] of
[00:44:52] money
[00:44:52] on our
[00:44:53] military
[00:44:53] and on
[00:44:54] military
[00:44:55] contractors
[00:44:55] as the
[00:44:56] way to
[00:44:57] accomplish
[00:44:57] big
[00:44:58] things
[00:44:59] in foreign
[00:44:59] policy.
[00:45:00] And
[00:45:01] number
[00:45:01] three,
[00:45:02] most of
[00:45:02] all,
[00:45:03] using this
[00:45:04] military
[00:45:05] buildup
[00:45:05] argument
[00:45:06] hides
[00:45:06] the fact
[00:45:07] that,
[00:45:07] as I
[00:45:08] said,
[00:45:09] Reagan
[00:45:09] pressured
[00:45:09] the
[00:45:10] USSR
[00:45:10] to
[00:45:11] dissolve,
[00:45:11] but Russia
[00:45:12] and the
[00:45:13] nations
[00:45:13] within
[00:45:14] the
[00:45:14] USSR
[00:45:15] were
[00:45:16] soon
[00:45:16] with
[00:45:17] only a
[00:45:17] couple
[00:45:18] of
[00:45:18] exceptions
[00:45:19] in the
[00:45:19] hands
[00:45:20] of
[00:45:20] former
[00:45:22] communists
[00:45:23] or
[00:45:23] KGB
[00:45:24] assets.
[00:45:25] There
[00:45:25] was no
[00:45:26] accountability
[00:45:26] for Russian
[00:45:28] tyranny.
[00:45:28] There
[00:45:29] was no
[00:45:29] trials
[00:45:30] like they
[00:45:31] had at
[00:45:31] the end
[00:45:31] of World
[00:45:32] War II
[00:45:32] with
[00:45:33] Germany.
[00:45:33] All
[00:45:34] of the
[00:45:35] murders
[00:45:36] that were
[00:45:36] committed,
[00:45:37] the
[00:45:37] slaughters,
[00:45:38] the Katan
[00:45:38] forest
[00:45:39] slaughter
[00:45:39] of 10,000
[00:45:40] Polish
[00:45:40] officers.
[00:45:41] What
[00:45:42] happened
[00:45:42] in the
[00:45:43] Ukraine?
[00:45:44] Millions
[00:45:44] of people
[00:45:45] starved
[00:45:45] to death.
[00:45:46] I mean,
[00:45:46] there's
[00:45:46] one
[00:45:47] Holocaust,
[00:45:48] if we're
[00:45:49] going to
[00:45:49] use that
[00:45:49] term,
[00:45:49] after
[00:45:50] another,
[00:45:51] perpetrated
[00:45:52] by the
[00:45:52] Russian
[00:45:53] communists
[00:45:54] and
[00:45:54] perpetrated
[00:45:55] by peoples
[00:45:56] in other
[00:45:57] countries that
[00:45:57] were put
[00:45:58] into power
[00:45:59] and powered
[00:46:00] by the
[00:46:01] Russian and
[00:46:02] Soviet
[00:46:02] communists.
[00:46:03] There's no
[00:46:03] accountability
[00:46:04] for this,
[00:46:05] folks.
[00:46:05] We just
[00:46:06] go right
[00:46:06] on working
[00:46:07] with basically
[00:46:07] the same
[00:46:08] people.
[00:46:09] There was
[00:46:10] no
[00:46:11] accountability
[00:46:11] for Russian
[00:46:12] tyranny
[00:46:13] and their
[00:46:13] nefarious
[00:46:14] activities,
[00:46:15] including
[00:46:16] with China.
[00:46:18] They
[00:46:18] continued.
[00:46:20] So now
[00:46:20] back to
[00:46:21] the movie.
[00:46:23] Despite
[00:46:24] the deficiencies,
[00:46:25] the movie
[00:46:25] overall is a
[00:46:27] very good
[00:46:27] thing.
[00:46:28] Why?
[00:46:29] Anytime
[00:46:30] we see
[00:46:30] anything
[00:46:31] from Hollywood
[00:46:32] standing
[00:46:33] up for
[00:46:33] conservatives,
[00:46:36] employing
[00:46:36] conservatives,
[00:46:37] and portraying
[00:46:39] in any
[00:46:40] degree the
[00:46:41] evils of
[00:46:42] communism,
[00:46:43] that is a
[00:46:44] good thing.
[00:46:46] Hats off
[00:46:46] to Dennis
[00:46:47] Quaid,
[00:46:47] who left
[00:46:48] a life
[00:46:49] of Hollywood
[00:46:50] cocaine
[00:46:51] and degeneracy
[00:46:53] behind to
[00:46:55] become a
[00:46:56] Christian,
[00:46:57] and it
[00:46:57] would seem
[00:46:58] a patriot.
[00:47:00] And I
[00:47:01] believe Reagan
[00:47:02] did his best,
[00:47:02] and again,
[00:47:03] I'm going
[00:47:03] to talk a
[00:47:04] lot more
[00:47:04] about Reagan.
[00:47:05] I'm not
[00:47:05] one of these
[00:47:06] far-right-wing
[00:47:07] extremists
[00:47:08] that were
[00:47:08] bashing Reagan
[00:47:09] all the
[00:47:10] time.
[00:47:11] Far from
[00:47:11] it.
[00:47:12] But I'm
[00:47:13] going to
[00:47:13] leave it
[00:47:13] there for
[00:47:13] now to
[00:47:14] be picked
[00:47:14] up with
[00:47:15] a whole
[00:47:15] podcast or
[00:47:16] two or
[00:47:17] three on
[00:47:19] Ronald Reagan.
[00:47:20] So I'm
[00:47:21] advising you
[00:47:22] to see this
[00:47:23] film if you
[00:47:23] haven't already
[00:47:24] seen it,
[00:47:24] but just see
[00:47:26] it with the
[00:47:26] understanding
[00:47:27] that first
[00:47:27] of all,
[00:47:28] a movie
[00:47:29] is not
[00:47:30] the medium
[00:47:30] to explain
[00:47:31] the complexities
[00:47:32] of things
[00:47:33] in politics,
[00:47:35] particularly
[00:47:36] not the
[00:47:36] complexity
[00:47:37] of the
[00:47:38] topics
[00:47:39] related
[00:47:40] to Reagan's
[00:47:41] career.
[00:47:42] So go see
[00:47:43] it if you
[00:47:44] can,
[00:47:44] or watch
[00:47:46] it at
[00:47:46] home.
[00:47:47] It's still
[00:47:47] playing,
[00:47:48] at least
[00:47:48] around here
[00:47:49] it's still
[00:47:49] playing.
[00:47:49] And I
[00:47:50] was back
[00:47:51] east a few
[00:47:51] days ago,
[00:47:52] I was playing
[00:47:52] in the town
[00:47:53] I was in
[00:47:53] back there,
[00:47:54] so I
[00:47:55] believe it's
[00:47:55] going to be
[00:47:56] around for
[00:47:56] at least a
[00:47:57] few more
[00:47:57] days at
[00:47:58] the theater.
[00:47:58] And I
[00:47:59] think it's
[00:47:59] a good
[00:47:59] idea to
[00:48:00] go to
[00:48:00] the theater
[00:48:01] if you're
[00:48:02] able and
[00:48:03] willing to
[00:48:04] do that,
[00:48:04] to show
[00:48:05] support and
[00:48:06] continue our
[00:48:07] access to
[00:48:08] theaters who
[00:48:09] are desperate
[00:48:10] to get the
[00:48:11] public that
[00:48:12] doesn't like
[00:48:13] all the
[00:48:13] creepy,
[00:48:14] scummy,
[00:48:16] degenerate
[00:48:17] content coming
[00:48:18] out of
[00:48:19] mainline Hollywood,
[00:48:20] those people,
[00:48:21] to get them
[00:48:22] in the
[00:48:23] theater.
[00:48:24] So anyway,
[00:48:25] so that's
[00:48:26] the movie
[00:48:26] Reagan.
[00:48:28] It's midnight
[00:48:29] in America,
[00:48:30] America.
[00:48:30] And this
[00:48:31] is indeed
