Bukele Speech Of The Century

Nayib Bukele's warning to the West may be the most important speech in history.

Nayib Bukele’s CPAC 2024 delivery is in the class of JFK’s “Secret Societies” and Eisenhower’s “military industrial complex” speeches, but his message is even more urgent.

”Thank you for the kind invitation to have me here at CPAC. It is truly an honor to be here just a few days after our presidential and legislative elections, which, by the way, pulverized the opposition. They say globalism comes to die at CPAC. I'm here to tell you that it's already dead in El Salvador.

But if you want globalism to die here, too, you must be willing to fight against everything and everyone who stands for it unapologetically. Fight for your freedoms; fight for your rights. The next President of the United States must not only win an election but also have the vision, the will, and the courage to do whatever it takes. And above all, he must be able to identify the underlying forces that will conspire against them. These dark forces are already taking over your country. You may not see it yet. But it's already happening. You don't see it as clearly because people are designed to see linear changes, not exponential ones.

We don't always recognize how fast a problem can multiply and spiral out of control. The problem is much like the metaphor of the boiling frog. Once the water boils, it's already too late. People fail to see these things. It's our nature. Like the frog, people become complacent and don't realize how bad things are getting until it's too late. Why?

I know, of course, El Salvador is a lot smaller country. Setting aside the differences, there is a similarity with what is happening here in the United States. We also have many apparently isolated problems in the 60s and 70s. We failed to realize the severity of their situation as a country until it became a civil war. By the time we reacted, it was already too late. We were already boiled by the frog. And it took us 50 years, two wars, 250,000 lives, and a third of our population displaced, and a near miracle to get our country back.

As your friend, I want to issue this warning for you to avoid the same mistakes we did in the 60s and the 70s. It is not easy to pull yourself back once you're in boiling water. In fact, all the experts said it was impossible. And besides, you don't want to wait 50 years and maybe hope for a miracle to get out of hell. You can still jump before the water boils. Some might say I'm exaggerating. But we can clearly see the science of a declining society because our own hit rock bottom decades ago. It is like when we see someone getting sick. First, he may just have a stomachache, headache, or a small fever. But if you don't deal with the disease, it will only get worse, and then it will may be too late.

Even after our first war in El Salvador, we failed again to look into the signs of the second civil war that was coming, the gang war, after a million people fled the first war. A lot of them came to live in ghettos here in the United States. Where the gangs were formed. When former President Clinton deported a lot of those gang members without telling us they were gang members, they were criminals. They roamed free, and recruited young people 1000s of young Salvadorans to join the gangs. At first, they seemed like petty criminals. But they began to change and transform until they became the unscrupulous terrorists that we know today. Most of them even perform satanic rituals. And this has been well documented.

The government back then didn't deal with the disease. Nor did the next administration or the ones after that. The disease that had begun with mild symptoms got worse and worse. It became a cancer that seemed incurable. We are already seeing the symptoms in the United States. Big cities in decline, like Baltimore, Portland, and New York, just to name a few places, where crime and drugs have become the nearly daily norm and even accepted and promoted by the government.

How many young people have you lost to the streets of Philadelphia or San Francisco to friends now? Did we see these apocalyptic sights 15, 10, 5 years ago? Can you imagine what it will be like in the next 5-10-15 years? The same thing was happening in El Salvador in the span of less than a decade. Gangs took control of the country and our society. They evolved into a parallel government controlling elections and even political parties; the gangs controlled every aspect of the daily life of most people. "Murder capital of the world" is a tragic title to hold. Getting rid of that was the bare minimum we had to achieve even to start thinking about rebuilding our country.

Jumping out of the water when it's already boiling is an almost impossible feat. You're not there yet. And believe me, you don't want to be. We did the unthinkable to cleanse our society. We arrested the terrorists. We had to remove corrupt judges and corrupt attorneys and prosecutors.

These corrupt judges and prosecutors were setting the gang members free. And it wasn't just the gangs. The corrupt system worked in tandem with the so-called international community, the NGOs, and, of course, the fake news. Just like it happens here in the United States. Unelected bureaucrats are trying to state public policy. Who elected them? They don't have a democratic mandate. If they want a seat on the table, they should run for office.

Let the people vote. It will not be a pretty sight for them. If the elections are free and fair. I mean, who would like Soros to dictate public policy and laws? Why does he feel entitled to impose his agenda? Let me tell you something, Soros and his cronies hit a brick wall in El Salvador.

Thank God, Glory be to Him. Salvadoreans are now immune to his influence. No one believes his lies anymore over there. We just had free and fair elections and we won in a landslide, with more than 84% of the vote.

With that thinking, more than 84% of the people voted to continue our policies, our victories unprecedented in the history and modern democracies in the world. They also gave us a supermajority in Congress. More than that: 54 seats out of 60. If we count our allies that's that's 95% of Congress. Let that also sink in.

The people of El Salvador have woken up. And so can you.

The global elites hate our success, and they fear yours. The people's free will to choose their leaders is something they despise because they cannot control it. You have experienced this firsthand here in the United States. The global elites control the mainstream media. They finance campaigns, district attorneys. They abuse their powers. They persecute political opponents. You know, in El Salvador, we don't weaponize our judicial system to prosecute our political opponents. A practice that may sound familiar to you, but we don't do that there.

And who's the dictator? The global elites and the media. They work in conjunction. They run some stories and publish the same pictures to reinforce agendas. You're no stranger to that here in the United States. We deal with that in El Salvador too. That is the free press they talk about? Please. I always criticize the defenders of institutionalism, not because I don't think strong institutions are paramount and necessary for a democracy but because I find them very hypocritical. They don't seem to have the same standards for themselves as they are trying to impose on others.

But there's yet another component that is more dangerous than a simple double standard. Institutions were created to serve the people and not the other way around. Somewhere along the way, those people forgot their fundamental purpose, which is more important these days than the institution itself. When the judicial system was created, it was created out of the necessity to bring justice. But now it seems the survival and control of the judges of the AGs, among others, are paramount. And the need to bring justice is merely a little more than an afterthought.

Another example. The police were created to bring law and order. Let them seek law and order, then. But now, some of them are even afraid to do their job because they fear the consequences we're doing. They should be encouraged to fulfill their foundational roles without fear of repercussions that distract them from their missions.

If the police were created to bring law and order, let them bring law and order. If the judicial system was created to bring justice, let them bring justice. Let them protect their purpose at all costs. The same goes with the press. Let them do it. Be free. A democracy needs a free press. But to enjoy that membership, you must adhere to the duty as a reporter. Report the facts. Don't be a puppet of those who finance you or finance the organizations that you work for.

Your freedom of speech will always be protected. We believe in free speech. Everyone here believes in free speech. Your free speech will always be protected. But don't call yourself a journalist if you're just an activist.

Don't call yourself independent if you depend on open society.

Those sacred institutions have morphed away from the purpose for which they were created. We should not defend them for the sake of being institutions. Instead, we should defend the principles that created them in the first place.

It's troubling to see that this is happening everywhere, not only in El Salvador or the United States. It is happening everywhere. But even here in the United States, in the most powerful country in the world, even here, it's happening. America should listen to these words not because the El Salvador model should be replicated here, but because this specific example applies to any nation that has lost or is losing its way.

Ask yourself why this is happening. Who is supporting it? Whether it's by ignorance, or by choice. And fight it. Fight it with all your heart and soul and be the beacon of hope that your founding fathers, with all their faults - like every human being has - dreamt for your country.

Fight for your freedoms, for your rights. Fight for the original purpose of these institutions and not their mere existence. It's still not too late. It can be done. It is time to raise these new paradigms that have been imposed in recent years that make no sense. If you just free minds from those invisible chains, you could do it.

This is an extremely dangerous trend that undermines these institutions’ effectiveness. Their credibility is at stake both at home and abroad. This is a warning from a friend. You should adhere to their foundational principles and purposes and denounce this new institutionalism.

Now, you would think that's it. As if it wasn't enough, right? But unfortunately, there's more. There are other symptoms that are even more difficult to diagnose. For instance, the financial situation of the United States. When I talk to my conservative friends right here, they always tell me the problem is high taxes. But they're wrong. Of course, taxes are extremely high here in the United States. I give you that. You're right in that. But that's not the real problem. The real problem is not the high taxes themselves but the fact that they are not even really funding the government. Not even those high taxes, higher than in a lot of places in the world, not even those taxes are really funding the government. So who's financing the government? The government is financed by Treasury bonds. Paper. And who buys the treasury bonds? Mostly the Fed. And how does the Fed buy them? By printing money. But what backing does the Fed have for that money being printed? The Treasury bonds themselves. So basically, you finance the government by printing money out of thin air. Someone could ask, well, so if the government can print the limited amounts of money out of thin air, why do they collect taxes?

I mean, the theory will make sense, right? If they can print unlimited amounts of money, why would they need that? The answer is simple, but it's very shocking. The real problem is that you pay high taxes only to uphold the illusion that you are funding the government - which you are not.

It's shocking, but it's true. The government is funded by money printing, paper backed with paper, a bubble that will inevitably burst. This situation is even worse than it seems.

If most Americans and the rest of the world were to become aware of this farce, confidence in your currency would be lost. The dollar will fall and the Western civilization with it. If the next President of the United States doesn't make the necessary policies and structural changes, that bubble will burst sooner or later. There's still time. You don't have to make the same mistakes we did in the 60s and the 70s. You can still jump before the water boils. Winning the election isn't enough to solve these problems. They will not simply go away as a consequence of an electoral result. It will take a total reengineering of the government top to bottom. It will entail making difficult decisions like the ones we made in El Salvador since 2019, and they're already paying off.

It will be hard. The system will push back, but you have the right to determine your own fate.

Salvadoreans did the same. We made the decision to direct our nation's direction, and it continues to be ours. We didn't tolerate being told what to do. In doing so, we did the unthinkable against all adversity. We transformed El Salvador from the most dangerous country in the world to the safest in the Western Hemisphere.

We did it by defying the global elites. We told them no more. And that is my message to you. Put up the fight because, in the end, it will be worth it. It has been for us. And you will have your country back. May God bless you. May God bless the people of the United States. May God bless El Salvador and the future are both our nations. Thank you very much.”
