00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 3: about finance. And I'm really excited about a Memphis business

13
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 3: owner who was invited by President Trump to be a

14
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 3: part of this roundtable on how to make America safe again.

15
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 3: His name is Tim Pew. He's the co owner of

Speaker 3: Pew's Flowers, and we're excited to have him in the

Speaker 3: studio today. That is going to be a wonderful, wonderful conversation.

18
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 3: By the way, right down our telephone number an I

00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 3: know one two six zero five nine two six again

20
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 3: that number nine oh one two six zero five, nine

21
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 3: to six. So last night on the on the Todd

22
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 3: Sterns Show on Newsmax, we had a really fascinating conversation

23
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 3: with Glenn Beck, who has a great radio program. Many

24
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 3: of you watch Glenn on the Blaze, uh, and he

25
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 3: has a very powerful new documentary out about the rise

26
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: of Islam. And it's an issue that a lot of

27
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 3: people in this country are not paying very much attention to.

28
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 3: But quite frankly, I believe it is the absolute most

29
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 3: important thing that we ought to be doing and that

30
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: we ought to be focused on. Now we've been covering it,

31
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 3: it seems like quite a bit over the past couple

32
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 3: of months, as we have seen many cities and towns

33
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 3: fall under the control of the Islamist Here in this country,

34
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: we have seen many Democrats and quite frankly Republicans and

35
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 3: states like Texas for example, that are embracing Islam. As

36
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 3: a matter of fact, today the governor of New Jersey

37
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 3: of female visited a moskin. She wore a full hint job.

38
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 3: And at the end of the day, these folks are

39
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: going to be very disappointed when they discover that the

40
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 3: Islamists are not here to be our friends. They are

41
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 3: here as conquerors. Their goal is to destroy the Christians

42
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 3: and the Jews and to kill off the LGBT community.

43
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 3: That's the ultimate goal here. And You've got a lot

44
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: of folks in the social media world. And I'm not

45
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 3: going to name names. I know many of you want

46
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 3: me to name the names. I'm not going to name

47
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 3: the names. And I want to explain why I'm not

48
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 3: going to name the names because I have suspicions, I

49
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 3: do not have proof. But let me just ask you

50
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,839
Speaker 3: a question. Well, this is sort of a hypothetical question here.

51
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 3: If Todd Stearns one day, you know, and for the

52
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 3: past I don't know, fifty well, for the past thirty

53
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 3: five years, I guess when I really started following politics.

54
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 3: Maybe it was forty years forty years when I really

55
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: started following politics. Jeez, Lou, I'm old, Dylan. So I've

56
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 3: been following politics for all the time. From day one.

57
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 3: I've always been pro life, and I've always been pro

58
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 3: Israel always, and both of those things, by the way,

59
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 3: they're not influenced by my politics as much as they

60
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: are my faith, and my faith flavors everything I do,

61
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 3: and it flavors my politics, which is why I became

62
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 3: a Republican. And let's just say that, just one day

63
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 3: out of the blue, Todd Starns announces that he is

64
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 3: anti Israel and that he is pro choice, And all

65
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 3: of a sudden, I have a multi million dollar beach

66
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 3: hon and I'm also driving a what's a big fancy

67
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 3: car dealing that's a people a Rolls Royce pulling up

68
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 3: in a Rolls Royce. Ben Dieters my chauffeur. What would

69
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 3: you think happened?

70
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: There?

71
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 3: No rhyme or reason. I've just one day woke up

72
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 3: and decided that, you know what, I'm going to be

73
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 3: pro choice. I'm going to be pro or anti Israel.

74
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 3: And when people ask about it, you're like, well, I

75
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,239
Speaker 3: just you know, I've had a change of heart. Really,

76
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 3: is it really a change of heart or is it possible,

77
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 3: just possible that I was influenced by a change in

78
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 3: my bank account. So all that to say, I suspect

79
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 3: that a lot of the people that are going out

80
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 3: there and these podcasters and these social media influencers and

81
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 3: the reason why they have turned their back on not

82
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 3: only Israel, not only America, but also President Trump. The

83
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 3: reason they're doing that is because they are being influenced

84
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 3: by the almighty dollar, from Arab nations and possibly from

85
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 3: people who hate this country and want to destabilize this country.

86
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 3: Don't you think that's a possibility that a lot of

87
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 3: these people. For years, I've been telling you about this,

88
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 3: that a lot of the people that you see on

89
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 3: TV in the conservative world, a lot of the podcasters

90
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 3: U see are not really conservatives. They're just playing a part.

91
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 3: They're grifting off of you, and a part of that

92
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 3: grift has resulted in what is a fracture right now

93
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 3: in the Republican movement. You guys can feel it, right,

94
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 3: you can see it. And it pains me to say

95
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 3: all of this, it really does. But it's not surprising now.

96
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 3: There are many For example, Mark Levinn. Mark Levin didn't

97
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 3: just wake up one day and be pro Israel. That's

98
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 3: the way he's always been. Mark Levin's opinions and values

99
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 3: have never changed. Why if you've heard Mark l I

100
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 3: love Mark Levin, the great one. That's my Mark Levin impression.

101
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 3: His opinions have never changed. But now all of a

102
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 3: sudden you would think that he is some sort of idolo,

103
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 3: a double agent for Israel working against America. That's ridiculous.

104
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 3: I'll give you another example. And again, just all right,

105
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 3: I said it was no, I'm not going to mention that.

106
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 3: I'm not going to mention ase. But there's one in particular,

107
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 3: and he's going after my Now, all of a sudden,

108
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 3: Mike Cockabee, who's held the same set of beliefs that

109
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 3: I've held, is now anti American. Franklin Graham now all

110
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 3: of a sudden considered to be anti American. You see

111
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 3: where all of this is going. There is an effort

112
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 3: to destroy the true leaders and the true influencers within

113
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 3: the conservative movement and within the evangelical Christian community. That

114
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 3: is a nefarious thing. And ladies and gentlemen, I want

115
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 3: to just positive theory here. Could it be possible that

116
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: the Muslims, the Islamic radicals, who are incredibly well funded,

117
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 3: could it be that they are using some of these

118
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 3: podcasters and social media influencers to not only infiltrate the

119
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 3: Trump administration, which has been done, but also to divide

120
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 3: all of us. And that's why it is so very

121
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 3: important for you to make sure that you are doing

122
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 3: your homework. You're researching and you're coming to the table

123
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 3: armed with facts and not what somebody is spewing at

124
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 3: you from some sort of a podcast, because they have

125
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 3: millions and millions of followers, and it is having an impact.

126
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 3: And I will say this, and we're going to get

127
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 3: into to the elections. Yesterday, President Trump a little. It's

128
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 3: a black eye for the president when the state representative,

129
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 3: the state lawmaker there a Republican lost to a Democrat.

130
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 3: President Trump now represented in Florida by a Democrat at

131
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 3: least for right now. And you know what people are saying, Well,

132
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 3: you know, it's just it doesn't really mat these are

133
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 3: special elections, they don't really matter. Republicans don't go out

134
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 3: to vote for special elections. Why not? Why? Why? What's going?

135
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 3: Is it possible? Is it possible that the fracture has

136
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 3: resulted in demoralizing and destabilizing the Republican Party? Is it

137
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: possible that Republicans just don't feel like getting up and

138
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 3: going and voting right now? And that's why this has

139
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 3: become an issue that we're going to talk about. So

140
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 3: Glenn Beck joined me last night on my NEWSMAC show

141
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 3: and we had a long conversation about this. We're gonna

142
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 3: we're gonna play some of that, uh in just a

143
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 3: little while. But Glenn Beck believes that this that the

144
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 3: the is the rise of the Islamist is the most

145
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 3: pressing issue facing our nation. And here's the reason. Why

146
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 3: do you think the Do you think the Islamist are

147
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 3: going to stop with Belgium or France or the UK.

148
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 3: Do you think they're going to be satisfied with with

149
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 3: conquering those nations?

150
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 5: No?

151
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 3: I don't believe so, because those nations really aren't all

152
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 3: that free. I mean, yes, they do have. I mean

153
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 3: there's a lot to admire and respect it. Of course,

154
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 3: there are allies, and I don't mean them anything except

155
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 3: for the French, who just annoy me. But ultimately, the

156
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 3: greatest prize for the Islamist is to conquer the United

157
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 3: States of America. And you know how they're going to

158
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 3: do that, folks, They're going to do that through empathy.

159
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 3: There is a large swath of the Christian community here

160
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 3: in this nation, and they're weak, they're limprested, they're lily livered,

161
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 3: as we say in Mississippi, and they don't mean anything

162
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 3: by it. That's just who they are, that is their

163
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 3: nature and they believe it's sort of like a church

164
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 3: version of DEI. They believe that the diversity of the

165
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 3: nation's religious community is what makes us stronger, when in fact,

166
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 3: it is exactly what is making us weaker because we

167
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 3: are meant to be a Christian nation. And we're not

168
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 3: going to go through all of that today, but we

169
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 3: have well documented this in many books about how our

170
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 3: founding fathers meant for us to be a Christian nation.

171
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean forcing people to go to church, but

172
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 3: it does mean that our guiding principles are all based

173
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 3: on Holy Scripture. And as a result of that, you

174
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: do have a choice to worship God or not worship God.

175
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 3: And you're not going to get in trouble for that.

176
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 3: Nobody's gonna yell at you. You're not going to get

177
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 3: in trouble if you're a Methodist or a Baptist, or

178
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 3: a Presbyterian or a Pentecology. It doesn't matter if you

179
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 3: want to be If you want to be a Hindu

180
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 3: or a Buddhist, you can do that so long as

181
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 3: you don't blow the rest of us up. We don't care.

182
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 3: But that philosophy only works under our form of governments,

183
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 3: and what have they been doing. They've been chipping away

184
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 3: at it day after day after day. And Donald Trump

185
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 3: steps in and he's done a terrific job of shoring

186
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 3: back up the foundation. But we've taken a lot of

187
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 3: sucker punches. And the biggest, I think was when the

188
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 3: China virus happened and the government shut down our churches.

189
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 3: Let me stop there, my apologies. We let the government

190
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 3: shut down our churches. That was I think the turning point.

191
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 3: So ultimately the grand prize in the conquest is going

192
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 3: to be the United States of America. That's what the

193
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 3: Islamists want to destroy. They want to destroy our way

194
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 3: of life, and they want to take over. They want

195
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 3: to take over our nation. And Glenn is going to

196
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 3: talk about this, and we're going to play some of

197
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 3: the audio from that interview coming up at the bottom

198
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 3: of the hour. Our telephone number nine oh one two

199
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 3: six zero five, nine two six. That's nine oh one

200
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 3: two six zero five to nine two six. Another question

201
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 3: here is why the Democrats and why do you believe

202
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,560
Speaker 3: the Democrats keep winning these special elections. I mean, of

203
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 3: all places Florida, there were two two Republicans lost their

204
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 3: races in of all places, Florida yesterday. Why do you

205
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 3: believe that is and should we be concerned about that?

206
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 3: Do you believe that we ought to be paying attention here?

207
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,199
Speaker 3: And if there's something broken, what needs to be fixed again?

208
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 3: Our number nine oh one two six zero five nine

209
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 3: two six. This is the Todd Sterns Show. Hey, everybody,

Speaker 3: four nineteen hundred and say Starns.

228
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 6: I saw one part you had a statue of Jesus.

229
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 6: Now I know you laughed, But do you think that

230
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 6: for many listeners they would find that so deeply offensive

231
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 6: to take a badence of smash Jesus into pieces?

232
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 7: Wasn't it Madonna, by the way, No, it was.

233
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 6: There was one I think of Madonna, the Madonna and

234
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 6: the child, and that was one of Jesus.

235
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 8: So the thing, that's a very good question, because I

236
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 8: think it might offend people. I think in Belgium not really.

237
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 8: We're not a very religious country and definitely not the

238
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 8: listeners of Studio Brussels. But what we did, all the

239
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 8: things we smashed, we made it very clear as well

240
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 8: that these were all things that were already broken. So

241
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 8: the statue it was turned face towards the back of

242
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 8: the room so you wouldn't see the face as well,

243
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 8: because that was already it was a broken statue as well.

244
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 8: But I think I would have been more careful in

245
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 8: another country, Definitely in Belgium, it is not a big issue.

246
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 6: Let me ask you this, if you were doing the

247
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 6: video again, would you smash a symbol of the prophet Mohammad?

248
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 2: That is a very dangerous one.

249
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 6: You wouldn't do it?

250
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 9: Why not?

251
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 6: No?

252
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 7: Because that would be inappropriate because in Belgium there are many.

253
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 6: There are Christians too, I know the Pope visited Belgium recently.

254
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 7: No, I know there are Christians, but it's since we

255
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 7: are all from the Christian tradition. I think it's like

256
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 7: laughing with yourself, or like.

257
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 6: You would never do it with Mohammed. No, no star

258
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 6: of David for Judaism.

259
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 2: I would do it. I wouldn't do it.

260
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 3: No, All right, there you have it. Those are Belgium

261
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 3: radio hosts. Christian's fair game. But whoa Nelly, we're not

262
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 3: going to be talking about the musclim No, no, no,

263
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 3: we're not. No, please, radio host, go boom. Nobody wants that.

264
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 3: Let's go to the phone lines here. Nine oh one

265
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six. Bob is calling

266
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 3: in from o'calla, Florida. WOCA are great affiliate there, Bob.

267
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 3: What in the world is going on in your state?

268
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 10: Oh?

269
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, the Florida is pretty decent. It hands deepex,

270
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 4: but it's a pretty decent place. I want to talk

271
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 4: to you about New York. I was elected official in

272
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 4: New York, and so I keep in touch and maney

273
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 4: of many of the people that I know, they were

274
00:16:54,600 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 4: good Conservatives have used out of New York. And and

275
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 4: this is what the supervisor and the town I came

276
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 4: from had told me. And we were discussing, uh, the politics,

277
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 4: and I said, well, what was what's the Democratic Party

278
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 4: going to do about this? And he looked at me

279
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 4: and he said, there is no Democratic Party here. And

280
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 4: I says what he says, No, there's no Democratic Party.

281
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 4: He said, the town board wants to put their live

282
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 4: in partners on the health insurance and have the taxpayers

283
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 4: paid for the health insurance. And I said, I said, well,

284
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 4: how can that happen? He says, well, the people that

285
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 4: had been elected the town board are really not Republicans anymore.

286
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 4: They're the Democrats. Democrats is taken over the town board.

287
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 4: And so what I just want to tell you is that, uh,

288
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:13,880
Speaker 4: it's not a big step for the Muslims who've taken

289
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 4: over the Democratic Party to now step over and take

290
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 4: over the Republican Party, and so that's what they want

291
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 4: to tell you.

292
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,479
Speaker 3: Well, well, Bob, I appreciate you calling in, and let

293
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 3: me just say this that when you, when you do

294
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 3: look at the Democrat Party, they have surrendered to the Muslims.

295
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 3: There's no doubt about that. And of course we're seeing

296
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,360
Speaker 3: that play out in many American cities. I suspect we're

297
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 3: going to be seeing many, many more Islamists who are

298
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 3: who are being elected to office, and a lot of

299
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,239
Speaker 3: it has to do with the fact that Republicans are

300
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 3: as terrified. Republicans don't want to be labeled as Islamophobic,

301
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 3: so I'm not terribly surprised by that, but I'm curious

302
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 3: what what do you folks think is going on here?

303
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 3: Because since President Trump was elected, Democrats so far have

304
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 3: flipped more than two dozen seats in Republican or battleground states,

305
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 3: including Arkansas, by the way, and New Hampshire. Republicans, on

306
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 3: the other hand, have not captured any Democrat seats at all.

307
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 3: So Democrats are making gains. And the argument is, well,

308
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 3: you know, this just always happens, really is that it?

309
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,880

326
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 3: the Golden Age, How Trump Saved America, and the President

327
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 3: wrote a nice little blurb, thank you, mister President. The

328
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 3: Speaker of the House Mike Johnson also endorsing the book,

329
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 3: along with a number of other lawmakers and the religious leaders.

330
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 3: And we're just mighty thankful for all of them. So

331
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 3: look here here's the situation circling back to what Glenn

332
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 3: Beck is very concerned about. He believes that we are

333
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 3: living in the end of days. He believes when you

334
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 3: look at all of the signs, that we are living

335
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 3: in the time of the rapture. And you'll hear him

336
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 3: talking about this. The starting off point was the fact

337
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 3: that the Islamis desecrated the nine to eleven Memorial for

338
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 3: Firefighters in New York City when they draped the memorial

339
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 3: with Muslim prayer rugs. They know what they were doing.

340
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 3: I do not find that to be coincidental at all

341
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 3: or incidental. Here's the conversation with the great Glenn back Well.

342
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 3: Joining now is Glenn back host of the Glenn back Program,

343
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 3: founder of the Torch, and he has a very important

344
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 3: documentary out exposing the Islamis blueprint for conquering the West.

345
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 2: Glenn, good to see you.

346
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 3: I'm just curious, what do you make of what happened

347
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 3: at Fire Department headquarters there at New York City.

348
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 11: You know, not knowing any of the groups involved, you know,

349
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 11: would only be speculating. But after doing this documentary it

350
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 11: took us four months to make it, and after putting

351
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 11: it together, I just don't believe that there is such a.

352
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 9: Thing as a coincidence. I mean, it is a.

353
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:21,640
Speaker 11: Stated goal to turn America into an Islamic state, get

354
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,679
Speaker 11: rid of our constitution or our constitutional freedoms, and it

355
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 11: is a very well laid plan. On the documentary, we

356
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 11: showed that a group that was actually tied to the

357
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 11: Muslim Brotherhood, which is a terrorist organization, was scheduled to

358
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,679
Speaker 11: meet with George Bush in the Oval Office on nine

359
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 11: to eleven, two thousand and one. It was supposed to

360
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 11: happen to three h five in the afternoon. And that

361
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 11: just shows access. They have been working on access for

362
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 11: a very, very long time.

363
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 3: I had a Senator Tommy Tubbervelt on the show just

364
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 3: last week. I want to play a bit of our

365
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 3: conversation this issue. I'm just wondering, do you have any

366
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 3: regrets by what you posted?

367
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 2: No, I don't have any aggress whatsoever. Todd. The enemy

368
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 2: is inside our gates. We got them here. Joe Biden

369
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: and Barack Obama brought them here by the thousands. It's

370
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 2: a disgrace.

371
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 3: You know, if you preach or teach Sharia law, you

372
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 3: need to go home. Yeah, Glenn, I know a lot

373
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 3: of folks saw that. What do you think about what

374
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 3: the senator just said.

375
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 11: There agreed, If you're into sharia law, that is absolutely

376
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 11: un American.

377
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 9: It's not constitutional.

378
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 11: And remember, sharia law is a political and governmental base.

379
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 9: It's not religious. When we're talking.

380
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:51,199
Speaker 11: Islamists, you're not talking of religion. You are talking about

381
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 11: a political movement to overthrow countries and take control of

382
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 11: the country. Sharia law. We cannot have two sets of laws.

383
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 2: We can't. We can't.

384
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 11: It will not survive. England is going through this, Germany

385
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 11: is going through this. If we don't wake up now,

386
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 11: they're about maybe maybe five years ahead of us. But

387
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 11: as the documents show that we showed on my special,

388
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 11: America is the number one target for a global caliphate.

389
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 11: They must have America and they are targeting it, and

390
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 11: it's time we take it seriously. You know, after nine

391
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 11: to eleven, all we paid attention to were the explosions

392
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 11: and the terror vests and the bombs and.

393
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 9: The airplanes and everything like that. We did not pay attention.

394
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 11: In fact, we've ignored what is happening in our own communities. Dearborn,

395
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 11: how about Minnesota? What is happening? This is not a coincidence.

396
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,719
Speaker 11: This is not They are not melting into our society.

397
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 11: This is a problem because for many the goal is

398
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 11: surey a law.

399
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 3: So, Glenn, I want to talk about the documentary exposing

400
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 3: the Islamist blueprint for conquering the West, and again it

401
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 3: is available exclusively on the Torch. You say that we're

402
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 3: sort of missing the real long game strategy here. I

403
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,159
Speaker 3: got everybody wants to focus on nine to eleven or

404
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 3: you know, the recent terror attacks. But what did you

405
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 3: what do you mean by the long term strategy, long

406
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 3: game here.

407
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 9: At Global Caliphate?

408
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 11: You know, you remember the days when I had a

409
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 11: chalkboard years ago and I put on the chalkboard Islamists, socialist, communist, radicals,

410
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 11: anarchists will work together to destabilize the Middle East, Europe

411
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 11: and America to overthrow the Western world. And everyone said

412
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 11: that was crazy on so many fronts. One they would

413
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 11: never work together, the Green Red Alliance. I didn't even

414
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 11: know what that was. I'm not even sure it was

415
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,199
Speaker 11: named that when I first put that chalkboard up. It

416
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,959
Speaker 11: is the alliance of the Marxists, those radicals along with

417
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 11: the Green Radical which are the Islamists, the ones who

418
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 11: want Shuria Law. They are working hand in hand because

419
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 11: they have one goal in hand, and that is destruction

420
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 11: of the Western world, the destruction of capitalism. It is

421
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:20,200
Speaker 11: well documented. I mean, go to stop the Conquest. If

422
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 11: you watch the special, I think on Thursday, I'm coming

423
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 11: out with a handbook on it that gives you all

424
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 11: of the documents in their own words, what they are

425
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 11: saying they're doing to America. You know, in nineteen ninety nine,

426
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 11: I was on the air at WABC and I actually

427
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,479
Speaker 11: stood up for the action that Bill Clinton took when

428
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 11: he was when he bombed the aspirin factory.

429
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 9: I don't remember that.

430
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,919
Speaker 11: And the reason why I said, he's going after a

431
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 11: guy named Osama bin Laden, and I had not heard

432
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 11: of him before, but I looked him up that day

433
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 11: and I read his words, and no one took me

434
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 11: seriously then, and I said, I'm telling you, within ten years,

435
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 11: there will be blood bodies and buildings in the streets

436
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 11: of Manhattan and it will have his name on. That

437
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 11: was nineteen ninety nine, two thousand and one, we saw

438
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 11: his work. The same warning I issue. Now they are

439
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 11: telling us what they're doing in their own words. They're

440
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 11: telling us what they're doing to the West. We must

441
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 11: pay attention.

442
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,439
Speaker 2: Have to Glenn, Here's what concerns me.

443
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 3: I'm an Evangelical and I don't see our evangelical churches

444
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 3: standing up and mass to this fight, even so much

445
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 3: as educating Christians about what the Islamist really want. I

446
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,400
Speaker 3: think we're certainly seeing a robust experience people going back

447
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,880
Speaker 3: to the Catholic Church. But do you see the Christian

448
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 3: community at large here in America understanding what I consider

449
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 3: to be a clear and present danger.

450
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 11: So I will tell you I'll go further then you will,

451
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 11: and probably most will, and probably what's good for me.

452
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 11: But I believe there is a possibility that we are

453
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,880
Speaker 11: living in the end of days they especially what's happening

454
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 11: with the twelve Verse in Iran. I've been talking about

455
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 11: them for thirty years. They were so radical that the

456
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 11: Ayatola Kamani said they could not be part of the revolution, which,

457
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 11: by the way, the revolution to overthrow Iran was Marxist

458
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 11: taking the colleges and the Islamist taking the all of

459
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 11: the religious combining and overthrowing. And then after the Islamist

460
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 11: revolution with the Marxists, they killed all the Marxists but anyway,

461
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 11: the twelvers are so dangerous because they believe that the

462
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 11: twelfth the mom the Mahadi is coming, and when you

463
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,120

00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,479

00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 3: No, Ron may ask you a question. Do you do

563
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 3: you hear music somewhere wrong?

564
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 13: Is that just me? Oh right, I'm telling you right now,

565
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:49,600

00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 3: Hey now, hey now shuts so man, shut o mouth right,

571
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 3: keep back going there. Telling you know, Ron, it's interesting

572
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,439
Speaker 3: because when we're you know, you raise a great point.

573
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 3: And I do wonder if these Republicans really do want

574
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 3: to win, and I'm I'm leaning towards a national conspiracy

575
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 3: where they're trying to sabotage Trump and they want to

576
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 3: shut down his agenda.

577
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 15: I exactly agree with you, because you're the point. They're

578
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 15: like the Pharisees in Jesus Christ. Time they allow us

579
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 15: sit in season a piece Jezebel, and they have the

580
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 15: Caesars and say they're doing something while they let the

581
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 15: people suffer and be deceived by the devil's intents.

582
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 3: I think, Ron, what you're trying to say is that

583
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 3: the Republicans are given President Trump the shaft.

584
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 15: That's right, I'm sad to say, but we need Jesus

585
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:01,760
Speaker 15: as said, we can get power.

586
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 13: We have the history, we have the Bible, and we

587
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 13: got help this season of faith. And if this can

588
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,719
Speaker 13: go through and talk to the people instead of trying

589
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 13: and use data and.

590
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,879
Speaker 15: Media what they're doing in my state and think that's

591
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 15: gonna get you across the finish line. When I talked

592
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,120

657
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 3: lead a panel tomorrow on faith and politics. So those

658
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 3: are the two topics you're really not allowed to talk

659
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 3: about or shouldn't talk about, but we're going to be

660
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 3: talking about them at SEAPAC tomorrow in Dallas. By the way,

661
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 3: our telephone number if you want to weigh in on

662
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 3: the conversation today nine oh one two six zero five

663
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 3: nine two six. That's nine oh one two six zero

664
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 3: five nine two six. Well. Crime has been a big

665
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 3: issue across the nation. I think a number of George

666
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:50,400
Speaker 3: Soros style district attorneys soft on crime, defending the criminals

667
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 3: and treating victims as if they're the bad guys. And

668
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 3: it has been mayhem in our country. As a matter

669
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 3: of fact, Memphis, Tennessee, the deadliest city in America, the

670
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 3: most isilent city in America, a city controlled for decades

671
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 3: by the politics and the policies of the Democrats. President

672
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 3: Trump was on this very radio program. I told him

673
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 3: about how bad things were. He promised he would look

674
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 3: into it, and a few months later National Guard boots

675
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 3: on the ground here in the Bluff City. Well, a

676
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 3: few days ago I was invited to visit with the

677
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 3: President backstage before his roundtable discussion of Memphis. We had

678
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,840
Speaker 3: a wonderful conversation and for the President, you know, ultimately

679
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 3: everything sort of falls back to business. And when you've

680
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 3: got high crime, you've got bad business. It's not good

681
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 3: for business. And so a part of the roundtable, the

682
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 3: President invited one of the most prominent businessmen in Memphis

683
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 3: to be a part of the conversation. His name is

684
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 3: Tim Pugh, and he is the co owner of Pew's

685
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,800
Speaker 3: Flowers and it's a wonderful flower shop and we utilize

686
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 3: them for all sorts of things and they do a

687
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 3: wonderful jo and Tim is joining us in studio in

688
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,839
Speaker 3: Memphis today. Tim, good to see you. Nice to see

689
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 3: so congratulations. That must have been quite the experience being

690
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,840
Speaker 3: up there on the podium with the President of the

691
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 3: United States.

692
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 5: It was amazing, first time I'd ever done anything like that.

693
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 5: I don't know how well I did, but it was

694
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 5: amazing to meet him and all the people on the

695
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 5: panel and backstage.

696
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 3: So you had a chance to Did you have a

697
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,319
Speaker 3: chance to talk to the president one on one?

698
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,959
Speaker 5: Not a lot, most of the other people hung around

699
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 5: for a while. They had said before we met, my

700
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 5: wife actually said do you think i'll meet Trump? And

701
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 5: he said, well, he really wants to go to Graceland after,

702
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 5: so he may head out the back door after it's,

703
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,840
Speaker 5: which he did. I briefly talked to him for a

704
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 5: minute or two. He told me, good job. I'm proud

705
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 5: of you. Just really nice guy.

706
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 3: You know, the whole day it was just somewhat surreal.

707
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 3: But to see you know, Memphis on display really for

708
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 3: the whole nation. I'm just curious that you you know,

709
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,399
Speaker 3: the message that you brought for folks that maybe were

710
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 3: not watching it in real time. What was the message

711
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 3: that you brought to the president.

712
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 5: Well, they'd asked me, we have, of course our flower

713
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 5: business and our landscape business, and we've been affected by crime.

714
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 5: We've had van stolen. We'd go up to somebody's door

715
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,320
Speaker 5: deliver flowers turn around and the van would be gone.

716
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,720
Speaker 5: You know, it's ridiculous. We'd had We've had a truck

717
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 5: stolen at gunpoint from our landscape drivers. We've had to

718
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 5: make sure we lock equipment on a job site while

719
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 5: we're there. We've had to put cameras and electric fence

720
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 5: around our main store for all our landscape equipment and trucks.

721
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 5: So it's affected us. And I've been here all my life.

722
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,680
Speaker 5: My parts are raised here. So we go way back

723
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 5: in Memphis, and so the crime is an issue for everyone.

724
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 5: I didn't want to go and get political, but if

725
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 5: if you know, if Biden had to send the task

726
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 5: force skin and invited me out a gone and so

727
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 5: I knew I'd get some backlash, but I went. I

728
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 5: was proud to do it, and I told them that

729
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 5: the crime is way down.

730
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 3: Have you noticed that, I mean from you know, from

731
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 3: your employees, the folks that are out there, have they

732
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 3: noticed that there's been a drop in crime.

733
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,439
Speaker 5: I've got a this is about about a month ago.

734
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 5: Some of the girls that worked the flower designers there

735
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 5: in their twenties. They came back on a Monday, and

736
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 5: I'm like, what are y'all talking? To me. I was

737
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 5: so excited. Ago we went to Bill Street last night.

738
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 5: She goes, it's the safest place we've ever been. Had

739
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 5: their pictures taken with the FBI, the National Guard, and

740
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 5: they said we felt so safe. We hadn't been in years.

741
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 5: So I mean, just things like that you hear all around.

742
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 5: We were having, as you probably know, carjackings almost on

743
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 5: a daily basis, where I wouldn't let my wife go

744
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,439
Speaker 5: pump pump her own gas. And now I haven't heard

745
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:49,759
Speaker 5: of one.

746
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 3: You see people when they hear that, you know, they're like, no,

747
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,319
Speaker 3: that can't be really in America. But that's that was

748
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:57,240
Speaker 3: our way of life.

749
00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 5: It was and it was everywhere, good parts of town,

750
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 5: parts of town, so you wanted to pump gas before

751
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 5: it got dark. And you always look at your surroundings

752
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 5: and it has really changed.

753
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:10,879
Speaker 3: Oh here's one for you. When I had just moved

754
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 3: back from living in New York City for fifteen years,

755
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 3: moved back to Memphis, and I was at the traffic

756
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 3: light in front of the Ruth's Chris, which is a

757
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 3: really nice part of town, and the light turned to

758
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 3: the car in front of me did not move, so

759
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,280
Speaker 3: I just did a little you know the love tap.

760
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 3: As soon as I did, the gun comes out the

761
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 3: side of the car and the driver was, you know, fortunely.

762
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 3: I guess he was in a good mood and didn't

763
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 3: shoot me. But you're like, jeez, a lou, you just

764
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 3: don't think about those kinds of things happening in an

765
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:41,560
Speaker 3: American town.

766
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 5: Now, But it really happened in Memphis. I would tell

767
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 5: my wife. She gets off frustrated in traffic and will

768
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 5: hold her hands up and I'm like, Chris, do you

769
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 5: know that meat what that means? And so you cannot

770
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,799
Speaker 5: do that. Just just be quiet and pay attention and

771
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,800
Speaker 5: let him go in front of you whatever. Just be calm.

772
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,400
Speaker 3: That's it. I mean, you got to do what you

773
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 3: gotta do. But again, after a while, you almost I

774
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 3: think for the mom who was there, and she was

775
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:10,720
Speaker 3: she told her story originally on the radio station KWAM,

776
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 3: our station here in Memphis, and then came on our

777
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 3: NEWSMAC show. And the idea that she could let her

778
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 3: kid play in the front yard and she could sit

779
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 3: on her front porch and drink iced tea. That really

780
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 3: moved a lot of people.

781
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 5: I think it did. I mean, that's the way we

782
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 5: grew up I went to a public school out in Raleigh,

783
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,919
Speaker 5: Craigmunt High School, and we just didn't have the crime.

784
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 5: Then you just didn't think about it as probably. You know,

785
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 5: when we were kids, we left the house on a

786
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 5: summer morning and you came home for dinner, then you

787
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 5: left again to your curfew, and your parents had no

788
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:43,960
Speaker 5: idea where you were, but they weren't too worried about you.

789
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 3: That's right, that's right. Don't come back home till the

790
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 3: street lights come awise exactly.

791
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 5: Nowadays, you want to make sure your kid has her

792
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,320
Speaker 5: cell phone and you're checking where they are at always.

793
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 3: And I think the President did a great job of

794
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 3: conveying that this is Look, this is a universal problem

795
00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:59,240
Speaker 3: with it's not a black problem or a white problem

796
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,000
Speaker 3: with and everybody problem and we all want the same

797
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,720
Speaker 3: things for our kids. We don't want them to get

798
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 3: shot at going to a park like the portal of

799
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 3: seven year old boy that was robbed at gunpoint of

800
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 3: his ten dollars. You know, people should not have to

801
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:12,319
Speaker 3: live like that.

802
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,239
Speaker 5: No, they shouldn't. And you know, like even if you're

803
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,799
Speaker 5: in school, we knew that the top ten kids that

804
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 5: made all the trouble you get rid of those top ten.

805
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 5: You've got to safe school. It's the same thing in

806
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 5: the city. They know the top five hundred criminals. You

807
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 5: get them off the streets and you don't have the

808
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 5: crime anymore.

809
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 3: Tim Pugh is joining us here in studio. He is

810
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 3: the co owner of Pew's Flowers, pug h Pew's Flowers,

Speaker 3: just going to tell you. Every Monday we get these

813
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 3: incredible flower arrangements sent to us here at the radios.

814
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 3: Just unbelievably gifted and talented the designers are that you

815
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:52,839
Speaker 3: guys have.

816
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,799
Speaker 5: Well, thank you. It's a family business we have. It's me,

817
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 5: my two brothers and our landscape company and flower shops.

818
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,799
Speaker 5: My three children work in it. My niece works in

819
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 5: the business, so it's truly a family business.

820
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 3: So tell me you mentioned as a family business. And

821
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 3: you guys have been here for so very long. Tell

822
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 3: us about how the Pew's story started here.

823
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 5: Well, it's been fifty years this year. My father was

824
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 5: a banker in the mid seventies, got tired of bureaucracy

825
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,399
Speaker 5: and politics and banking and quit one day and worked

826
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 5: at a flower shop in high school here in Memphis

827
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,759
Speaker 5: and decided he would buy a small flower shop, and

828
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,760
Speaker 5: so he did in the late seventies, and then about

829
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:39,320
Speaker 5: seven eight years later, he suddenly got cancer and passed away.

830
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,840
Speaker 5: So I was nineteen, my brother was older. We decided

831
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 5: to ask my mom and his partner if they would

832
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,919
Speaker 5: take a note and let us buy it. So they did.

833
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 5: So it's me my two brothers. A few years later,

834
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,759
Speaker 5: we needed to grow make more money. There's three us,

835
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 5: to know. So my younger brother started a landscape and

836
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,400
Speaker 5: brought that in with us, and so it's grown a lot.

837
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,440
Speaker 3: You know, And that's really what I want, you know,

838
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,319
Speaker 3: the radio station to be k Ram, you know, I,

839
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,880
Speaker 3: you know, moved back home, bought the news radio station,

840
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,920
Speaker 3: and I really felt it was important for us to

841
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 3: have a local station, a locally owned radio station, so

842
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,440
Speaker 3: we could talk about the issues that a lot of

843
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 3: other stations are not allowed to talk about by their

844
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 3: corporate overlords. And one of those was, in fact, crime.

845
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:23,359
Speaker 3: And I think the I think our lawmakers understood when

846
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 3: people would be calling in to the radio shows or

847
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,919
Speaker 3: going on our social media platforms, they realized, oh wait

848
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,120
Speaker 3: a second, this is a lot worse off than we thought,

849
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 3: you know, than we thought it was.

850
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you really don't realize, if you're around the country,

851
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 5: in your own own little world, we would constantly tell

852
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 5: our children there's no need to go downtown on Friday night,

853
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 5: or don't you don't need to go downtown or Saturday night,

854
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 5: just stay out east or whatever, And so you worried

855
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:53,280
Speaker 5: about them. Now it's it's really changed. You feel it's different.

856
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 5: You know the statistics crime is down way over forty

857
00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 5: percent and fifty percent in some categories. But you also

858
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:01,759
Speaker 5: you can feel it.

859
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 3: You can feel it, right, you can You're absolutely right,

860
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 3: you can feel it. It's I don't know the the

861
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 3: agen zs call it a vibe, you know, I mean

862
00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,240
Speaker 3: it's it's a great vibe. Did I use that correctly, Dylan?

863
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 3: Almost are we vibing?

864
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 2: Yeah?

865
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 3: It no, No, you got to help us, Temini. We're

866
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,800
Speaker 3: kind of the same vibe es are the vibes?

867
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 5: Yeah? Okay, thanks. Got to learn from my children, they're

868
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:22,320
Speaker 5: in their twenties.

869
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 3: I tell you, it's it's tough. It's tough, but thank

870
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:27,000
Speaker 3: you for that, Dylan.

871
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:30,320
Speaker 5: But it does now you don't worry about your kids

872
00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 5: as much. You don't see the cars going around the

873
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 5: expressway at one hundred and ten miles an hour, almost

874
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 5: cutting you off. And you know, the highway patrol came

875
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 5: in a few months ago, very strong, and it's it's

876
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 5: it's all of everybody together, Memphis Police, Shelby County Police,

877
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 5: they're all working together, which which is making it work.

878
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 5: I was at Target about a month ago and in

879
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 5: the parking lot there was Memphis Police, UH, Shelby County Police, FBI,

880
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 5: National Guard. They're all in a group just talking, kind

881
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 5: of laughing, huddled up, hanging out, and You're like, God,

882
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 5: that's that's perfect. They're all getting doing the same thing.

883
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 3: That's what it's all about.

884
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:09,720
Speaker 5: Yeah.

885
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:12,439
Speaker 3: I know our good buddy Jim Olsapio, he owns rum

886
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,720
Speaker 3: Boogie down on Beal Street and Dale's over in South Haven,

887
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 3: and there you walk into those restaurants or pubs or whatever,

888
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 3: you're gonna get a free meal if we're wearing a uniform,

889
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 3: you know. And I just love how the business community

890
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,320
Speaker 3: has really embraced the National Guard and the Task Force,

891
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:31,319
Speaker 3: but not just the business owners giving free food or

892
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,759
Speaker 3: chiropractor work or whatever, but also the citizens, you know,

893
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:36,680
Speaker 3: just saying thank you and one of the things that

894
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 3: really bothered me, and somebody sent me a note about

895
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:43,760
Speaker 3: this yesterday. All the media coverage they did not mention

896
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 3: how many people in like for example, the minority communities

897
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 3: were out there saying welcome to Memphis, President Trump. They

898
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:52,759
Speaker 3: didn't put those folks on the TV.

899
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:57,439
Speaker 5: And I think, well, crime is not political only for politicians.

900
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:02,520
Speaker 5: So I was at when walmart on Winchester in Hickory

901
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 5: Hill part of town last Sunday before last, and there

902
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,759
Speaker 5: was National Guarden there and no matter what color you are,

903
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,799
Speaker 5: everybody was happy to see him because they're like, oh,

904
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 5: probably not gonna be a crime and here today.

905
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:17,799
Speaker 3: Right. It's a great point now that being said, So

906
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 3: you're the you. The President invited you as a patriotic American.

907
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:25,280
Speaker 3: You accepted the invitation and it was a wonderful event

908
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 3: and it really wasn't about politics. It was just about

909
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:30,440
Speaker 3: fixing crime and you know, dealing with crime here. And

910
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 3: I understand you've actually been getting blowback for being on

911
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:34,920
Speaker 3: that panel. Is that true?

912
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 4: Yes?

913
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,120
Speaker 5: I went on there because I love Memphis, my family

914
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:39,920
Speaker 5: lives here, my new grand baby lives here. I want

915
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,359
Speaker 5: it to be safe. So I knew anything you do

916
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 5: that has a Trump name on it, there's going to

917
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:45,919
Speaker 5: be people that go crazy. So I knew it before

918
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:47,839
Speaker 5: I went on, but I said it even if it

919
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:49,719
Speaker 5: was Joe Biden and he brought a huge task force

920
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:51,919
Speaker 5: to Memphis and made it safer, I would do the same.

921
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,279
Speaker 5: So I thought, that's not going to be politically though

922
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 5: it's probably gonna be perceived that way. So I went

923
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 5: on and told them what I thought, that my family

924
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 5: lived here and it is safe for us. Said, I

925
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,879
Speaker 5: get an email every Friday from the mayor. We all

926
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,720
Speaker 5: do if you're subscribed to it, and he talks about

927
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,640
Speaker 5: crime statistics. Last Friday he said it's well down over

928
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 5: forty and fifty percent. So that wasn't me saying that's

929
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 5: me the mayor saying it. And I can feel it,

930
00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 5: and I said that, And so I didn't go as

931
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 5: political as excited to go, of course, and it was.

932
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:24,200
Speaker 5: It was a lot of fun.

933
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:26,880
Speaker 3: And you've gotten some blowback though, Oh.

934
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:27,400
Speaker 5: I've gotten a lot.

935
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 15: Well.

936
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 5: I had to get off social media because I've been

937
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:32,800
Speaker 5: getting a lot of blowback, which I knew I probably would.

938
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 6: Uh.

939
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 5: My daughter, she's my big protector, so she's been going

940
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 5: on there. She finally had to get off to I said,

941
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:40,799
Speaker 5: just let's just all get off and maybe it'll blow over.

942
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 3: Well, no, and it will, it will. And I think

981
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:50,320
Speaker 3: as good as gold. And it really it really angered

982
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:54,600
Speaker 3: me that you've got the leftist mob and the only

983
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:59,480

Speaker 3: com and also one of my favorite writers in America. Liz,

1018
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:10,720
Speaker 3: hope you're doing well today.

1019
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:15,720
Speaker 16: I am, although I have to tell you I'm very

1020
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 16: concerned about this Democrat upset in South Florida, which you know,

1021
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 16: it's a local seat, it's a state seat in Florida,

1022
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:30,720
Speaker 16: but it is exactly the kind of outcome to that

1023
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:35,120
Speaker 16: people in Florida, people in Texas are panicked over these

1024
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 16: states where you've had this huge influx of Democrats fleeing

1025
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:44,080
Speaker 16: the high taxes and unaffordable living in New York and

1026
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:48,400
Speaker 16: New Jersey and Illinois and California. They arrive in places

1027
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:50,840
Speaker 16: like Texas and Florida, and what do they do, Lifelong

1028
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 16: Democrats They revert to form and they start voting Democrat.

1029
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 16: I mean, it's really an unbelievably stupid, mindless thing to do.

1030
00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:01,919
Speaker 16: But that's what's going on. And you know, I think

1031
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,680
Speaker 16: people are really concerned about it. I'm concerned about it.

1032
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 16: Having bought a place in Florida, the last thing you

1033
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 16: want is for everything to turn around and you know,

1034
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 16: Florida start looking like New York. And I know this

1035
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 16: is like, you know, only one indicator, but it's sort

1036
00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 16: of like the nose under the tent.

1037
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 15: Right.

1038
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 3: Well, look, we talked about this earlier in the show,

1039
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,200
Speaker 3: and we actually had a guy who lives in the

1040
00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 3: Okalla area who was from New York and he's a

1041
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:32,520
Speaker 3: good guy. He's a Republican and he maintained his Republican

1042
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 3: status when he moved to Florida. But he said, this

1043
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 3: is this is a big problem. And when you I

1044
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,200
Speaker 3: was looking at some of the data from last night, Liz,

1045
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 3: and the issue was not Republicans not showing up. The

1046
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,560
Speaker 3: Republicans showed up in their regular numbers. But the problem was,

1047
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 3: you know, there were just a lot more Democrats who voted. Now,

1048
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:56,760
Speaker 3: people tell me, Starns, we don't have anything to worry about. However, Liz,

1049
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 3: according to the New York Times, more than two dozen

1050
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:03,960
Speaker 3: seats have flipped since the presidential election, and they've all

1051
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,000
Speaker 3: flipped in favor of the Democrats and not the other way.

1052
00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:08,439
Speaker 3: What is going on here?

1053
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:13,520
Speaker 16: Well, you know, I think that it's one thing that

1054
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:17,480
Speaker 16: Trump on the ballot as we did last year in

1055
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 16: twenty twenty four, I should say year and a half ago,

1056
00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 16: and he carried a great many candidates. I think that

1057
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 16: is a fair statement. He was popular, and he campaigned

1058
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:34,120
Speaker 16: on popular issues. People were very concerned about the open

1059
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 16: border of Joe Biden, concerned about law and order, and

1060
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 16: so I think Trump was a very powerful positive element.

1061
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 16: And now what the New York Times would say, and

1062
00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 16: I don't think you can totally dispute this. There is

1063
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 16: such hatred for this president. Now, yes, his base is intact,

1064
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:57,360
Speaker 16: but the other side is like brainless. I mean, the

1065
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:03,160
Speaker 16: fury and anger and hatred being directed at Donald Trump

1066
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 16: is actually something incredible to me. And when you see

1067
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,520
Speaker 16: people in the progressive left, people like Chris Murphy, who

1068
01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:14,680
Speaker 16: is a really detestable senator from Connecticut, talking about how

1069
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:16,720
Speaker 16: ICE agents are going to go into the airports and

1070
01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:19,360
Speaker 16: they're going to kill people. I think he literally said that,

1071
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 16: or you know, others sort of talking about how Iran

1072
01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 16: is the worst mistake we've ever made. This while our

1073
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 16: men and women in uniform are over there trying to

1074
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,600
Speaker 16: win a war. You just have to sort of say,

1075
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:38,400
Speaker 16: people are unbalanced on the other side, and there is

1076
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:43,520
Speaker 16: enormous amounts of misinformation, pure out and out lives about

1077
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:48,000
Speaker 16: the Trump administration, about what they're doing, et cetera, about Ice,

1078
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 16: and you know, so I think I think a lot

1079
01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:54,760
Speaker 16: of people who don't really do their own homework and

1080
01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 16: don't really try to get to the bottom of all

1081
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:00,800
Speaker 16: these issues. They really hate Donald Trump and they're trying

1082
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:05,480
Speaker 16: to act that out or act out by voting against

1083
01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:08,200
Speaker 16: a Republican that has any kind of endorsement. This guy,

1084
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:12,760
Speaker 16: Maples in South Florida was endorsed by Donald Trump, and

1085
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:16,320
Speaker 16: I've seen as by him. He's a very attractive black businessman.

1086
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:18,880
Speaker 16: I have no idea why he lost, and you, I think,

1087
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,400
Speaker 16: have done more research. I am just beginning to read it.

1088
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 16: But it's pretty discouraging.

1089
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:28,520
Speaker 3: It is discouraging, and you know, again, I just think

1090
01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 3: these are wake up calls when you look at what happened,

1091
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,240
Speaker 3: look at what happened in Virginia and the elections, and

1092
01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 3: I think there the Republicans seem to be there seems

1093
01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:40,160
Speaker 3: to be a bit of a groundswell now to stop

1094
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 3: the redestraating effort. But that is going to be it's

1095
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 3: going to be problematic for us in the midterms. And again,

1096
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 3: I'm with you. I do think this hatred of Donald Trump,

1097
01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:54,000
Speaker 3: But Liz, I'm also wondering about you know, these and

1098
01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 3: I wanted to do the name calling, but the social

1099
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,800
Speaker 3: media influencers and the podcasters. Do you think that's causing

1100
01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:04,800
Speaker 3: riffs in the America First movement, the conservative movement?

1101
01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 16: You know, I tend to discount that, and perhaps at

1102
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:13,240
Speaker 16: my peril because I find these people and I will

1103
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:17,120
Speaker 16: name them, Tucker Carlson and the others who are Candae

1104
01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:20,280
Speaker 16: Owens and so forth, who are so loud and so

1105
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 16: strident in there. Now you know, they're sort of anger

1106
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:32,400
Speaker 16: at Donald Trump for engaging with Iran, for trying to

1107
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:36,680
Speaker 16: suppress forty seven years of terror in the Middle East.

1108
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:39,200
Speaker 16: But they seem like wing nuts to me, and I

1109
01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 16: really can't I would love to think that conservatives generally

1110
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:46,560
Speaker 16: are too smart to think that Israel is the master

1111
01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:50,479
Speaker 16: puppet pulling the strings. Has anyone ever tried to pull

1112
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:54,160
Speaker 16: Donald Trump by the nose to do anything? Nobody, I mean,

1113
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 16: the biggest complaint about Donald Trump in his inner circle

1114
01:02:57,760 --> 01:02:59,720
Speaker 16: is that no one can convince him to do anything.

1115
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:01,480
Speaker 16: He will to do what he wants to do. So

1116
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:06,760
Speaker 16: the idea that bb Net and Yahoo is behind are

1117
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 16: getting into a war in the Middle East, I think

1118
01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,360
Speaker 16: it's crazy. I actually think these people are slightly lunatic,

1119
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:15,520
Speaker 16: and they are driven todd by the fact that they

1120
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:19,040
Speaker 16: have to create their own revenues, they have to create

1121
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:21,760
Speaker 16: their own presence, and the more and you and I

1122
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,880
Speaker 16: both know, the more outrageous you are, the bigger footprint

1123
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,960
Speaker 16: you have these days. And sadly that's true on the

1124
01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,960
Speaker 16: right as well as on the left. And I refuse

1125
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,040
Speaker 16: to go there. I think you refuse to go there.

1126
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:39,920
Speaker 16: It's just too offensive to bend your convictions and the

1127
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:43,120
Speaker 16: truth to get a few more clicks. And I think

1128
01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:43,959
Speaker 16: that's what they're doing.

1129
01:03:44,280 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 3: Liz One thousand percent. I am in such agreement with

1130
01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:50,960
Speaker 3: you on this, and you're right, it's for many of them,

1131
01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:54,920
Speaker 3: it's about the almighty dollar. When you're and we use

1132
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:57,240
Speaker 3: the example, it's like, okay, let's just say for your

1133
01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:00,360
Speaker 3: entire career, you've been pro life in pro Israel, and

1134
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:04,040
Speaker 3: then one day you announce I'm pro choice and I'm

1135
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:06,440
Speaker 3: you know, anti Israel, and all of a sudden, you're

1136
01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 3: driving around in a you know, a Rolls Royce and

1137
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:11,920
Speaker 3: you're buying beepside property you're running Wait a second, was

1138
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,880
Speaker 3: this some sort of a genuine ideological shift or are

1139
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 3: you being paid to change your opinion? And you know,

1140
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,240
Speaker 3: you hate to think that, but the reality is they're

1141
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,840
Speaker 3: calling people like Mark Levin. I mean, just think about this,

1142
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:29,760
Speaker 3: Mark Levin, President Trump, Mike Huckabee, Franklin Graham. Now are

1143
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 3: I guess enemies of the state. According to a lot

1144
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:34,480
Speaker 3: of these podcasters and influencers.

1145
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:40,440
Speaker 16: It's absurd, it's absurd, it's hateful, and it's totally divisive,

1146
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 16: as you said, But again, I just hope that there

1147
01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:46,240
Speaker 16: are enough people with common sense again, who do their

1148
01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:48,760
Speaker 16: own homework and kind of come to their own realizations.

1149
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 16: For me, probably The greatest outrage is that they've turned

1150
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:55,200
Speaker 16: on Winston Churchill. Oh my god. Anybody who has read

1151
01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:59,440
Speaker 16: anything about the history of World War Two revers Winston Churchill.

1152
01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:02,439
Speaker 16: He was a full, courageous leader at a time when

1153
01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:05,960
Speaker 16: otherwise England, frankly would have been gone. I mean, you

1154
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:09,640
Speaker 16: know there was they needed someone to stand up and

1155
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 16: lead that country in a perilous time. I'll tell you

1156
01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:14,560
Speaker 16: what I think, Donald Trump is that person here in

1157
01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 16: our country today. And you know I cannot explain to

1158
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 16: you anyway. The answer is I relegate them, in my head,

1159
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:26,320
Speaker 16: to a fringe, nonsensical group. I could be wrong. It

1160
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:28,680
Speaker 16: could be that they are hurting him, but when you

1161
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:31,000
Speaker 16: look at the polling todd it doesn't really seem that way.

1162
01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:32,720
Speaker 16: It seems like most of the people who voted for

1163
01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 16: Donald Trump are still pretty much.

1164
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:34,880
Speaker 12: On his team.

1165
01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:38,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. And again, there's a lot to

1166
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:42,600
Speaker 3: wash out between now and an election day, and you know,

1167
01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:44,960
Speaker 3: we'll see how all this plays out. But I think

1168
01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:49,200
Speaker 3: alarm bell should be sounding. I've been really, really disappointed

1169
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:51,919
Speaker 3: in the r NC. I just don't see them being

1170
01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 3: effective anywhere right now. And I don't know what that's

1171
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 3: all about, but they've got to get it together.

1172
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:01,680
Speaker 16: Yeah, I agree with you. And it's not like they

1173
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:04,959
Speaker 16: don't have money. They do, and I don't know whether

1174
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:08,120
Speaker 16: they're spending it in the wrong places. I don't know.

1175
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:12,760
Speaker 16: I mean in New York, where I live, you can't

1176
01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:15,520
Speaker 16: really read much from that, because the New York Republican

1177
01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:19,680
Speaker 16: Party is sclerotic at best, that's the best description I

1178
01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:25,680
Speaker 16: can give it, and not very aggressive. But elsewhere, for example,

1179
01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:28,600
Speaker 16: in this little special election in Florida, I also think

1180
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:32,280
Speaker 16: Todd in a place like this, my guess is in

1181
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:35,640
Speaker 16: a place like South Florida, there's a certain complacency. I mean,

1182
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 16: this area has been pretty much Republican dominated, Republican successful

1183
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:44,080
Speaker 16: for so long. Maybe they're just not I'm guessing they

1184
01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:46,320
Speaker 16: just didn't think it was a big challenge, and so

1185
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:49,240
Speaker 16: the RNC may not have gotten involved here, I don't know.

1186
01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,080
Speaker 3: Just to show you how crazy people are. Just before

1187
01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 3: you came on, of course, the President was in Memphis

1188
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:58,360
Speaker 3: to do the big round table and got a chance

1189
01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:02,080
Speaker 3: to be with the President and the Attorney General, and

1190
01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:04,880
Speaker 3: people here are just so excited and delighted. And they

1191
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:08,480
Speaker 3: invited a local business owner. His name is Timpeugh. They

1192
01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:12,120
Speaker 3: own a flower shop here, very successful flower shop, and

1193
01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:14,520
Speaker 3: he was just explaining he was invited on the panel

1194
01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:17,200
Speaker 3: as a businessman to say, yeah, you know, we've had

1195
01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 3: to like lock down our flowers. You know, our flower

1196
01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:24,040
Speaker 3: trucks have been stolen during deliveries. It's insane. Do you

1197
01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 3: realize the flower shop is now coming under attack because

1198
01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 3: he dared accept the President's invitation. It's insane.

1199
01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:33,880
Speaker 16: I'll have sad. It's a little bit like the hockey

1200
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:37,560
Speaker 16: team men's hockey team getting blasted by so many people

1201
01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:40,520
Speaker 16: for going to the Oval Office, going to the White

1202
01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:43,000
Speaker 16: House to meet President Trump. If you were a young

1203
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 16: person and you had just achieved a marvelous victory in

1204
01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 16: the Olympics and represented our country, don't you think you

1205
01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 16: deserve to go to the White House if you want to,

1206
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:56,680
Speaker 16: and if you're invited. I mean, honestly, really, again, the

1207
01:07:56,800 --> 01:08:00,520
Speaker 16: level of hatred that I see out there for President

1208
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:03,520
Speaker 16: Trump is I've never seen anything like it focused on

1209
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:08,040
Speaker 16: one person. Interestingly, I talked to some people who had

1210
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:10,840
Speaker 16: dinner at mar A Lago the other night he was there,

1211
01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 16: and they said he was in a great mood. You know,

1212
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:17,320
Speaker 16: he was clearly enjoying himself I don't think. I mean,

1213
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,280
Speaker 16: the amazing thing is it isn't getting to him, Todd,

1214
01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:23,320
Speaker 16: How can it not get to him? He is so

1215
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:26,559
Speaker 16: sure that what he's doing is the best thing he

1216
01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:29,240
Speaker 16: can be doing for our country that I think all

1217
01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,599
Speaker 16: these attacks from the left are just fort of bouncing

1218
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,200
Speaker 16: off him like ping pong balls. He just doesn't care.

1219
01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:37,559
Speaker 16: And good for him because it isn't. He isn't cowering

1220
01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:40,559
Speaker 16: in his corner. He's not Chuck Schumer scared the death

1221
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,519
Speaker 16: of AOC primary him. Trump knows he's got to do

1222
01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 16: what he's got to do. He only has two more

1223
01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:48,960
Speaker 16: years left or two and a half, and so he's

1224
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:50,519
Speaker 16: going to do what he thinks is right. And boy,

1225
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:51,200
Speaker 16: that's a great.

1226
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:52,720
Speaker 11: Place to be, it really is.

1227
01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 3: And let me tell you something. He was in a

1228
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:57,680
Speaker 3: great mood in Memphis and he was so excited. He

1229
01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:01,200
Speaker 3: got a private tour of Graceland and the man was

1230
01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:03,479
Speaker 3: in hog heaven. I mean, it's h he's living his

1231
01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:04,200
Speaker 3: best life.

1232
01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:07,639
Speaker 11: So good for him.

1233
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:10,960
Speaker 16: He deserves it. After all they've thrown at him, all

1234
01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 16: the nastiness and the bilification, and you know, two attempts

1235
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,880
Speaker 16: on his life, et cetera. I gotta tell you if

1236
01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:20,599
Speaker 16: he wants to go to Graceland and have a good time,

1237
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:21,519
Speaker 16: he sure deserves that.

1238
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:24,719
Speaker 3: And Liz Peak, there's no excuse. The president has visited

1239
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:27,719
Speaker 3: the jungle room. Now we need to get Liz Peak.

1240

1249
01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:56,559

Speaker 3: Right. No, I'm telling you we've got to get we

1292
01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:28,000
Speaker 3: Text and data rates may apply. Let's go to North Carolina.

1293
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:30,920
Speaker 3: Charles is on the line, Hind Charles, what's going on?

1294
01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:35,439
Speaker 14: Hey, Tid, I was just listening to the conversation you

1295
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:37,559
Speaker 14: were having with Liz Peek and just wanted to weigh

1296
01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 14: in on that. I'm concerned about what happened in Florida

1297
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 14: at the state level as well. But godd, I think

1298
01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:51,360
Speaker 14: what's going on there is all an indicator of just

1299
01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:57,000
Speaker 14: a lack of enthusiasm among Republican voters because of they're

1300
01:12:57,160 --> 01:13:00,479
Speaker 14: the Republican's lack of getting anything done at the national level.

1301
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,280
Speaker 14: I think that people are just getting weary and they're

1302
01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:09,000
Speaker 14: getting they're getting ticked off. And case in point is

1303
01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:09,720
Speaker 14: this Save Act.

1304
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:09,960
Speaker 2: God.

1305
01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:13,880
Speaker 14: I mean, you've got eighty percent of the country in

1306
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:18,120
Speaker 14: supermajorities of Democrats, Republicans and Independence to want this thing passed,

1307
01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:25,439
Speaker 14: and yet it's not passed. And I don't understand. You

1308
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:28,040
Speaker 14: spoke with President Trump last week and maybe you guys

1309
01:13:28,080 --> 01:13:30,519
Speaker 14: talked about this. If so, I'd like to hear about it.

1310
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 14: But I think that the President needs to do like

1311
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:36,800
Speaker 14: an address to the nation to give it more of

1312
01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:40,360
Speaker 14: a sense of urgency, and he needs to explain to

1313
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 14: the American people what the Save Act is and why

1314
01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:45,960
Speaker 14: we need to pass the given everything that happened in

1315
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:51,919
Speaker 14: twenty sixteen, twenty twenty, the fifteen million I legal aliens, assassinations, attempt,

1316
01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:54,400
Speaker 14: all of this stuff, he needs to go before the nation,

1317
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:58,439
Speaker 14: lay it out and just demand that this Act is

1318
01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,880
Speaker 14: going to pass. And he's going to invoke Article two,

1319
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:06,120
Speaker 14: Section three of the Constitution, which is an emergency legislative

1320
01:14:06,200 --> 01:14:10,719
Speaker 14: session of Congress. He can do both houses or just one,

1321
01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:14,280
Speaker 14: but emergency session of the Senate and tell John Thune

1322
01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:18,280
Speaker 14: that the Senators are not leaving Washington, d C. Until

1323
01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:21,800
Speaker 14: they pass the Sayback. That can be one week, it

1324
01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:24,880
Speaker 14: can be seven months. But they're staying there and they're

1325
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:28,519
Speaker 14: doing their jobs. We haven't come this far to risk

1326
01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:31,959
Speaker 14: losing at all by allowing a bunch of illegal aliens

1327
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:35,800
Speaker 14: to influence the twenty six and plenty eight election. It's

1328
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:36,639
Speaker 14: just that important.

1329
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:40,880
Speaker 3: Well, it is important, and we're Charles. I'm going to

1330
01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:44,639
Speaker 3: talk more about this coming up in just a few

1331
01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:47,600
Speaker 3: moments at the top of the next hour. I have

1332
01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,719
Speaker 3: a lot to say about that. And the big concern

1333
01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:55,840
Speaker 3: now is Senators going into recess, possibly without voting on

1334
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,960
Speaker 3: the Save Act. If that happens, we're going to have

1335
01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:02,960
Speaker 3: major problems in the midterms. Charles, it's a great thought.

1336
01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:06,439
Speaker 3: Hang tide. Everybody got to take a break. Nine oh

1337
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:09,879
Speaker 3: one two six zero five, nine two six is our number.

1338
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:12,920
Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

1339
01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:15,280
Speaker 3: We'll be right back, everybody. You're gonna stick around and

1340
01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:16,599
Speaker 3: hear what I've got to say.

1341
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:35,920
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

1342
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:38,360
Speaker 1: America's conservative blowtorch.

1343
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:44,120
Speaker 11: That's us, that's American.

1344
01:15:46,920 --> 01:15:47,480
Speaker 2: Starts.

1345
01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:51,439
Speaker 3: All right, well, hello, I just want to give you

1346
01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:57,640
Speaker 3: an update here. Chucky Schumer has has decided it's his

1347
01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:00,640
Speaker 3: way or the highway. He says there will be no compromise,

1348
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:05,200
Speaker 3: that Republicans must capitulate to every single one of their

1349
01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:09,639
Speaker 3: demands when it comes to reopening Homeland security, Ladies and gentlemen,

1350
01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:13,360
Speaker 3: At some point, at some point, we're either going to

1351
01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:17,120
Speaker 3: have to determine that the Democrats are in control of

1352
01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:19,800
Speaker 3: Washington or we're going to have to light a fire

1353
01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:25,280
Speaker 3: under these Republicans. But Chuck Schumer is doubling down now

1354
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:28,280
Speaker 3: and saying they will not be they will not be

1355
01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:31,920
Speaker 3: making a deal with Republicans. They say Republicans have to

1356
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:37,280
Speaker 3: capitulate on everything. All right, Wow, we'll keep you updated.

1357
01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:40,240
Speaker 3: But that's what's going on. By the way, I may

1358
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:44,080
Speaker 3: I just say something here about about Florida and the

1359
01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 3: fact that the Florida Republicans just lost two House seats

1360
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:52,520
Speaker 3: last night. President Trump Mara a Lago now being represented

1361
01:16:52,520 --> 01:16:57,240
Speaker 3: by a Democrat. One of the reasons why is that

1362
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:00,559
Speaker 3: there's a sense of complacency. And you heard is talking

1363
01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:03,479
Speaker 3: about this. Do you realize that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis

1364
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:07,120
Speaker 3: did not put out any messages yesterday urging people to

1365
01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:11,439
Speaker 3: get out and vote, urging Republicans to get out and vote. Now,

1366
01:17:12,600 --> 01:17:15,680
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you, I am seeing this at the

1367
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,160
Speaker 3: local level. I'm seeing this kind of attitude at the

1368
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 3: state level and now at the national level, where these

1369
01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:26,720
Speaker 3: Republicans think that you guys owe them something, that the

1370
01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:31,240
Speaker 3: Republicans don't have to work for anything. And I've seen

1371
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:34,200
Speaker 3: this sort of this holier than now attitude coming from

1372
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:37,120
Speaker 3: a lot of these Republicans and a lot of them.

1373
01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:40,760
Speaker 3: And I told the story yesterday of one Republican leader

1374
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:43,439
Speaker 3: and they wanted to do something nice for the donors,

1375
01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:46,000
Speaker 3: for the big dollar donors. So they bought these little

1376
01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:49,080
Speaker 3: white House Christmas ornaments and they put them in wrapping

1377
01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:52,120
Speaker 3: paper with Donald Trump's face on it. And they said, no, no, no, no, no,

1378
01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:54,439
Speaker 3: we can't do that. We're moving on, We're moving on

1379
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 3: from Trump. So there's a lot of that going on here.

1380
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:02,200
Speaker 3: You know what, Donald J. Trump is still your president,

1381
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:04,280
Speaker 3: ladies and gulmen, and I don't know who in the

1382
01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:08,200
Speaker 3: Republican Party needs to hear that. But Donald J. Trump

1383
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:12,680
Speaker 3: is still your president. And the fact that we're not

1384
01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:17,400
Speaker 3: knocking down doors for every single election, that is incredibly

1385
01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:20,479
Speaker 3: disturbing to me. As a matter of fact, most people

1386
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:22,920
Speaker 3: in Florida didn't even realize on the Republican side of

1387
01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:25,960
Speaker 3: the aisle, they didn't even realize there was an election yesterday.

1388
01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:32,760
Speaker 3: So it's time to have a swift kick in the

1389
01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:36,040
Speaker 3: pants when it comes to the Republicans, because they are

1390
01:18:36,120 --> 01:18:39,840
Speaker 3: heading us. They're heading towards a cliff. I want to

1391
01:18:39,840 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 3: read to you what generated a lot of controversy, a

1392
01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:47,280
Speaker 3: lot of buzz on X yesterday late last night. Here's

1393
01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:51,240
Speaker 3: what I posted. And again I try to you know,

1394
01:18:51,280 --> 01:18:56,679
Speaker 3: I speak more bluntly to you, this great radio audience

1395
01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:59,080
Speaker 3: because I know you guys know where I'm coming from,

1396
01:18:59,240 --> 01:19:01,719
Speaker 3: and you kind of hear the tone and the tenor

1397
01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:03,639
Speaker 3: of my words, and you know, what's all coming from

1398
01:19:03,680 --> 01:19:07,240
Speaker 3: a good spot. I don't really begrudge anybody. I don't

1399
01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:10,080
Speaker 3: hate anybody. I just I want the Republicans to do

1400
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:16,640
Speaker 3: good because it's just too dangerous. The unthinkable is just unthinkable,

1401
01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:20,960
Speaker 3: which is why it's unthinkable. Think about it, that makes sense.

1402
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:27,280
Speaker 3: This is what I wrote. Senate Republicans never had any

1403
01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:30,880
Speaker 3: intention of passing the Save America Act. It's kabuki theater,

1404
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:33,439
Speaker 3: by the way, that's what's going. It's kabuki theater. Pardon me,

1405
01:19:33,560 --> 01:19:37,679
Speaker 3: let me continue, and there will likely not be any

1406
01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:41,640
Speaker 3: other votes of consequence between now and the midterms. It's it,

1407
01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:46,120
Speaker 3: that's it. What we have done is done. Make no mistake.

1408
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:49,439
Speaker 3: John Thune and his leadership team have betrayed the American

1409
01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:53,719
Speaker 3: people and their president and they don't care. They don't care,

1410
01:19:54,000 --> 01:20:00,680
Speaker 3: not one bit. They sabotage the president's agenda from day one.

1411
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:04,679
Speaker 3: Their behavior may likely cost Republicans the House and the Senate,

1412
01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:09,920
Speaker 3: and they deserve to lose. However, you knew there was

1413
01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:15,200
Speaker 3: a however coming. However, President Trump does not deserve to

1414
01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:18,160
Speaker 3: be impeached, and that's exactly what would happen if the

1415
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:23,240
Speaker 3: Democrats regain control. So we can't let that happen. For

1416
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:28,160
Speaker 3: Donald Trump's sake. Let's spare President Trump and the First

1417
01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:32,240
Speaker 3: Lady the agony of endless investigations and trumped up charges.

1418
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 3: I say this, re elect the gutlass gutter snipes. We

1419
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:43,240
Speaker 3: can deal with the jack assery of John Thune and

1420
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:47,760
Speaker 3: his cowardly band of traders in twenty twenty eight. Our

1421
01:20:47,800 --> 01:20:52,479
Speaker 3: president deserved better, and so did America First voters, but

1422
01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:59,040
Speaker 3: we got screwed by the Republicans and that has generated thousands,

1423
01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:06,479
Speaker 3: ten of thousands of comments and reactions on social media.

1424
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:08,960
Speaker 3: Did I get it right? Ladies and gentlemen, Nine oh

1425
01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:12,040
Speaker 3: one two six zero five to nine two six is

1426
01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:15,519
Speaker 3: our telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero

1427
01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:17,799
Speaker 3: five to nine two six. That was one of the

1428
01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:22,400
Speaker 3: conversations I had with Pete Sessions, great congressman out of Texas,

1429
01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:24,640
Speaker 3: and he's frustrated. I think a lot of people in

1430
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:26,479
Speaker 3: the House, and by the way, the House has been

1431
01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:29,880
Speaker 3: doing their job. It's the Senate that's holding all of

1432
01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:31,720
Speaker 3: this up. I want you to take a listen to

1433
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:36,440
Speaker 3: Congressman Sessions. All right, joining me now, Congressman Pete Sessions

1434
01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:40,480
Speaker 3: from Texas. All right, you heard the president there, Congressman,

1435
01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:43,320
Speaker 3: he previously said, by the way, there would be no

1436
01:21:43,439 --> 01:21:47,759
Speaker 3: deal on homeland security unless the Save America Act was passed.

1437
01:21:47,800 --> 01:21:50,080
Speaker 3: What do you make of all of this, Well, it's

1438
01:21:50,080 --> 01:21:50,760
Speaker 3: a problem.

1439
01:21:50,920 --> 01:21:54,240
Speaker 17: The problem is that happen when you look at the

1440
01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:59,240
Speaker 17: long lines that are at airports across the country at

1441
01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:03,880
Speaker 17: a very difficult time it's called spring break, when the

1442
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:08,920
Speaker 17: commerce of this country is already reeling with a little

1443
01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:13,680
Speaker 17: bit of indecision around world affairs. So I think that

1444
01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:18,120
Speaker 17: what our Senate colleagues are attempting to do is to

1445
01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:24,599
Speaker 17: fund DHS minus ICE, as I understand it. Does that

1446
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:31,560
Speaker 17: make sense, well, I think funding the airport operations, funding

1447
01:22:31,720 --> 01:22:33,840
Speaker 17: the things that need to take place. You know, there

1448
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:38,559
Speaker 17: was a huge storm in Hawaii over the weekend. And

1449
01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:43,000
Speaker 17: while I still held, at least as of this morning,

1450
01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:46,360
Speaker 17: the belief that I would hold the position I was in,

1451
01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:51,160
Speaker 17: but know that two senators from from Hawaii would be

1452
01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:53,880
Speaker 17: in trouble. I'm willing to listen.

1453
01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:57,760
Speaker 3: Congressman, I just don't get this. You know, we've been

1454
01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:01,439
Speaker 3: down this path so many times. We're Senate Republicans hold

1455
01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 3: the majority and they always give it up. There really

1456
01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:09,080
Speaker 3: is no compromise here. It's always really capitulating to what

1457
01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:14,679
Speaker 3: the Democrats want. Christy Nomes already out. Democrats were pretty

1458
01:23:14,720 --> 01:23:18,200
Speaker 3: adamant about that. Seems to me that's the compromise. So

1459
01:23:18,520 --> 01:23:21,000
Speaker 3: let's get this thing done, and let's go ahead and

1460
01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:25,480
Speaker 3: fund everybody. But if the Republicans capitulate on this, Congressman,

1461
01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 3: I don't see that this is going to be a

1462
01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:30,479
Speaker 3: win for our side of the aisle.

1463
01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:33,880
Speaker 17: Well, you know, I want to completely agree with you,

1464
01:23:33,960 --> 01:23:37,559
Speaker 17: as I told you, I have not gone that direction yet.

1465
01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:40,280
Speaker 17: But for me to say that I do not want

1466
01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:43,240
Speaker 17: to listen to what the idea might be would be foolish.

1467
01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:44,960
Speaker 2: The bottom line is is.

1468
01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:49,280
Speaker 17: That I feel like that the two senators from Hawaii,

1469
01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:53,040
Speaker 17: after the eighteen inch train and the billion dollar damage,

1470
01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:54,040
Speaker 17: they need FEMA.

1471
01:23:54,439 --> 01:23:55,640
Speaker 9: They need FEMA.

1472
01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:58,799
Speaker 17: Operating, and it just I don't know what the trigger

1473
01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:02,240
Speaker 17: point would be where we would ever gain the upper hand.

1474
01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:07,120
Speaker 17: And the ICE operations are vitally important to this nation.

1475
01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:11,240
Speaker 17: They're vitally important to rule of law. They're vitally important

1476
01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:14,760
Speaker 17: to the things that we as Republicans agreed that we

1477
01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:18,320
Speaker 17: would do. To back away from that once again is

1478
01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:23,320
Speaker 17: not something that I'm for. But you ask me about this,

1479
01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:26,280
Speaker 17: and I think I would. It would not be a

1480
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:29,160
Speaker 17: Peat Sessions like thing to say I'm not willing to

1481
01:24:29,240 --> 01:24:32,280
Speaker 17: at least listen to what some of my colleagues from

1482
01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:32,759
Speaker 17: the Senate.

1483
01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:35,120
Speaker 2: But no, look, I don't have to agree with them. Yeah,

1484
01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:35,960
Speaker 2: and that's fair enough.

1485
01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:40,240
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I get that, And look, I can respect

1486
01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 3: that position, and there's nothing wrong with listening House Freedom

1487
01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:47,680
Speaker 3: and Caucus. They're responding to all of this. The new

1488
01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:50,439
Speaker 3: plan to pass the Save America Act. Guys, if we

1489
01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:53,599
Speaker 3: can get that up on the screen please, Here's what

1490
01:24:53,640 --> 01:24:56,240
Speaker 3: they had to say. It may not even be possible

1491
01:24:56,280 --> 01:24:59,160
Speaker 3: out of the Senate's arcane rules and would allow Democrats

1492
01:24:59,240 --> 01:25:05,160
Speaker 3: to offer unless limited amendments on the bill. This is gaslighting.

1493
01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:08,639
Speaker 3: The American people are not stupid and will not accept

1494
01:25:08,640 --> 01:25:13,280
Speaker 3: more failure theater from Republicans. And I have to imagine

1495
01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:17,360
Speaker 3: there the House Freedom cock is referring to whatever is

1496
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,960
Speaker 3: happening with the Save America Act, which I've already prepared

1497
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:21,160
Speaker 3: my radio audience for.

1498
01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:23,599
Speaker 2: I don't think that's going to get out of the Senate.

1499
01:25:24,520 --> 01:25:27,000
Speaker 17: Well, you know what, it may or may not get

1500
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:30,360
Speaker 17: out of the Senate. But we are for the bill

1501
01:25:30,479 --> 01:25:33,519
Speaker 17: and should take it as far as we can and

1502
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:37,640
Speaker 17: highlight those that are not. And I think finding a

1503
01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:40,600
Speaker 17: side door, a back door, or a trapdoor out of

1504
01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:46,360
Speaker 17: this issue is It's not something that I would be for,

1505
01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 17: but I'm willing to listen and I think that we

1506
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:52,080
Speaker 17: will hear volumes about it.

1507
01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:04,719
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back. Let's go right to the phone lines, Gainesville, Georgia.

1508
01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:09,480
Speaker 3: Wdun Alan is with us. Hi Allen, what's on your mind?

1509
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:10,519
Speaker 9: H Todd?

1510
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:13,400
Speaker 18: And thanks for letting us have a voice with you.

1511
01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:17,920
Speaker 10: Yes, sir, Yeah, I wanted to ask you if you

1512
01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:22,479
Speaker 10: would talk a little bit about the hierarchy as the

1513
01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:26,040
Speaker 10: Senate and the Congress used to select their leaders.

1514
01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:29,760
Speaker 18: I've looked at things for the last several years. I

1515
01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:33,719
Speaker 18: watched Jim Jordan, you know, be passed over and somebody

1516
01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:36,840
Speaker 18: you know from California gets in and does nothing. Dead

1517
01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:39,559
Speaker 18: Cruise in the Senate, who's been a leader for years

1518
01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:44,080
Speaker 18: and years in the Republican Conservative Caucus, he gets passed over,

1519
01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:46,479
Speaker 18: and somebody like Dune gets put in any sense on

1520
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:50,760
Speaker 18: his hands. How does that work that these people have

1521
01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:54,280
Speaker 18: the power to get in there when we know they're

1522
01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:56,520
Speaker 18: not the real outstanding conservatives.

1523
01:26:57,200 --> 01:27:00,200
Speaker 3: Well, I'm gonna do my best to answer that question

1524
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:03,960
Speaker 3: for you, allan, and it's a great question. First and foremost,

1525
01:27:04,560 --> 01:27:08,160
Speaker 3: John Thuon is all about the money, and this guy

1526
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:11,720
Speaker 3: has been able to raise a lot of money for

1527
01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:15,719
Speaker 3: a lot of these Republican senators and ultimately that Trump's

1528
01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:19,720
Speaker 3: any loyalty that you know, the senators might have for

1529
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:22,679
Speaker 3: their home states, you know, so they are no longer

1530
01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:26,040
Speaker 3: beholden at that point to the voters and say, you

1531
01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:30,280
Speaker 3: know a Georgia for example, or wherever else. Well, you

1532
01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:34,080
Speaker 3: guys have two Democrats. But let's say we'll say North Carolina.

1533
01:27:34,400 --> 01:27:37,439
Speaker 3: They're not beholden to you good people in North Carolina. No, no, no, no,

1534
01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:41,840
Speaker 3: they're actually beholden to John Thune. So you have to

1535
01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:44,479
Speaker 3: go back, and a lot of this is done in secret, Allen,

1536
01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:49,679
Speaker 3: So it was a secret vote Mitch McConnell's stepping down.

1537
01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:53,040
Speaker 3: John Thune was the longtime whip, and there was a

1538
01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:57,320
Speaker 3: secret ballot thun, John Cornyn and Rick Scott. Of course,

1539
01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:01,600
Speaker 3: many Conservatives wanted to go with Rick Scott, and it

1540
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:05,479
Speaker 3: turned out that John Thune actually won that secret ballot.

1541
01:28:05,600 --> 01:28:09,320
Speaker 3: So really it's a continuation of the policies of Mitch McConnell,

1542
01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:10,479
Speaker 3: is what we're looking at here.

1543
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:16,960
Speaker 18: Wow, that's just terrible. You know, we should we should

1544
01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:21,000
Speaker 18: move with what's happening with the presidency. I mean, that

1545
01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:23,120
Speaker 18: ought to be a focus when we go out and

1546
01:28:23,160 --> 01:28:26,200
Speaker 18: have a national election, and we want to change in

1547
01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:31,920
Speaker 18: this country. We should change leadership to that direction of

1548
01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:36,200
Speaker 18: where we're headed, especially people in the public certin side

1549
01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:40,600
Speaker 18: the Democrats all seem to agree on everything. We have differences,

1550
01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:44,080
Speaker 18: and we have people in the presidency who can't get

1551
01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:48,240
Speaker 18: support by our own senators and congressmen. And that's where

1552
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:51,920
Speaker 18: we need our leadership to be following who we elect

1553
01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:53,160
Speaker 18: to lead this nation.

1554
01:28:54,120 --> 01:28:57,840
Speaker 3: Isn't that amazing? Alan that right now the biggest opposition

1555
01:28:58,040 --> 01:29:00,360
Speaker 3: to Donald Trump is coming from members of his own

1556
01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:06,400
Speaker 3: political party. Yes, yeah, that's it's it's disgusting and it

1557
01:29:06,520 --> 01:29:09,200
Speaker 3: is something that we are going to have to address

1558
01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:13,200
Speaker 3: with our elected senators. I mean, that's that's going to

1559
01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:16,559
Speaker 3: be the big challenge here. Alan, appreciate the call. Thank

1560
01:29:16,600 --> 01:29:20,519
Speaker 3: you for that. Well, time now for the mail bag.

1561
01:29:20,600 --> 01:29:23,599
Speaker 3: We actually have some nice male you know, normally it's

1562
01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:27,040
Speaker 3: not all that not all that nice, I'm gonna tell

1563
01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:31,760
Speaker 3: you sometimes people can be unkind Dyla night. I know

1564
01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:33,240
Speaker 3: that seems to be a shock to you.

1565
01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 5: It is a surprising that you could be mean to.

1566
01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:46,200
Speaker 3: Well, here's one from Memphis, Tennessee. Dere Todd. You're a

1567
01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:47,360
Speaker 3: whitey jackass.

1568
01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:50,080
Speaker 2: That's not nice.

1569
01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:55,479
Speaker 3: Here's another from Chris. Why you why you be blanking

1570
01:29:55,720 --> 01:30:06,679
Speaker 3: lying with multiple emojis after? That's not very kind. Oh

1571
01:30:06,720 --> 01:30:08,880
Speaker 3: here's the nice one. I was scrolling down. I was

1572
01:30:08,880 --> 01:30:13,320
Speaker 3: trying to find it or scroll a long time. We're

1573
01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:15,599
Speaker 3: getting a lot of hate mail these days, a lot

1574
01:30:15,600 --> 01:30:20,360
Speaker 3: of hate mail. This is from North Carolina. Hello Todd.

1575
01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:24,000
Speaker 3: I've been thinking a long time about the Save America Act.

1576
01:30:24,479 --> 01:30:26,680
Speaker 3: I called my Senator Ted Bund and told him they

1577
01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:29,160
Speaker 3: need to pass the Save Act. But all you hear

1578
01:30:29,320 --> 01:30:31,840
Speaker 3: is we don't have the votes to pass it. Look

1579
01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:34,640
Speaker 3: at Tom tell Us. We had Tom Or a Democrat.

1580
01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:37,599
Speaker 3: They know you won't vote Democrat, so he voted again

1581
01:30:37,680 --> 01:30:40,599
Speaker 3: some people in North Carolina and did not care. Thank God,

1582
01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:44,639
Speaker 3: he will be gone soon enough. I think one way

1583
01:30:44,680 --> 01:30:47,160
Speaker 3: to wake up all these Republican lawmakers. If all the

1584
01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:53,080
Speaker 3: registered Republicans changed their voter registration to unaffiliated, Democrats will

1585
01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:56,400
Speaker 3: think the MAGA movement's over. Republicans will have to work

1586
01:30:56,439 --> 01:30:59,840
Speaker 3: to ensure we will vote for them. Tom, your show

1587
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:03,679
Speaker 3: has millions and millions of people listening. Just think if

1588
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:08,160
Speaker 3: one million people change their status, the Ring the Rhinos

1589
01:31:08,880 --> 01:31:12,280
Speaker 3: would have to pay attention. Thank you, love your show

1590
01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:16,200
Speaker 3: you replace the empty space in my heart after Rush

1591

Speaker 3: left this earth. Oh that make a nice bumper.

Speaker 19: How's going on?

1648
01:34:36,640 --> 01:34:38,160
Speaker 3: I'm pretty good. You know Trump was in town.

1649
01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:40,759
Speaker 19: I was about to say that I actually saw the President,

1650
01:34:40,880 --> 01:34:43,439
Speaker 19: not not directly, but my plan was flying into Memphis

1651
01:34:43,479 --> 01:34:46,240
Speaker 19: are National on Monday, and I saw him just taking

1652
01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:48,160
Speaker 19: off as we were taking pulling ends.

1653
01:34:48,200 --> 01:34:49,840
Speaker 3: That's something you don't see every day.

1654
01:34:49,800 --> 01:34:50,639
Speaker 20: Every day, not at all.

1655
01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:53,439
Speaker 19: Did you see the picture of the beast in front

1656
01:34:53,439 --> 01:34:54,960
Speaker 19: of Graceland.

1657
01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:55,479
Speaker 3: That looked pretty sweet?

1658
01:34:55,479 --> 01:34:56,080
Speaker 19: It was pretty cool.

1659
01:34:56,120 --> 01:34:57,880
Speaker 20: Yeah, you know, I've lived here my whole life. Never

1660
01:34:57,920 --> 01:34:59,920
Speaker 20: step foot in Graceland, Is that right?

1661
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:02,479
Speaker 3: That's right? What is wrong with you? Why is? It's

1662
01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:04,200
Speaker 3: kind of like people in New York City they never

1663
01:35:04,240 --> 01:35:05,479
Speaker 3: go to the Stantue of Liberty.

1664
01:35:05,680 --> 01:35:05,840
Speaker 11: You know.

1665
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:07,720
Speaker 20: It's just one of those things that just kind of

1666
01:35:07,720 --> 01:35:09,679
Speaker 20: out of sight, out of mine. My wife and I

1667
01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:11,559
Speaker 20: obviously had a different walk of life with a one

1668
01:35:11,640 --> 01:35:14,000
Speaker 20: year old. So we're going to places like the zoo

1669
01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:16,520
Speaker 20: and the children's museum, We're not going to Graceland.

1670
01:35:16,600 --> 01:35:17,920
Speaker 3: So I love that.

1671
01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:20,080
Speaker 19: I love the part where Trump walked in the door

1672
01:35:20,120 --> 01:35:22,800
Speaker 19: and they said, welcome, mister President to the second most

1673
01:35:22,880 --> 01:35:26,200
Speaker 19: visited house in the country. Believe or not, your house

1674
01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:26,760
Speaker 19: is number one.

1675
01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:29,759
Speaker 3: So it's true, the White House number one and number

1676
01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:30,879
Speaker 3: two is a Gracelan.

1677
01:35:31,040 --> 01:35:32,879
Speaker 19: It's just fitting, you know, just to have that in Memphis,

1678
01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:33,160
Speaker 19: you know.

1679
01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:33,720
Speaker 2: It really is.

1680
01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:34,519
Speaker 3: It was a funny.

1681
01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:35,000
Speaker 12: You know.

1682
01:35:35,400 --> 01:35:37,439
Speaker 3: I hate that he didn't get down to Beale Street,

1683
01:35:37,479 --> 01:35:39,479
Speaker 3: you know, but that would have been getting me out

1684
01:35:39,520 --> 01:35:40,920
Speaker 3: to a rum boogie or something like that.

1685
01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:43,479
Speaker 20: You'd probably need more Secret Service help going down to

1686
01:35:43,479 --> 01:35:45,200
Speaker 20: Bill just a smidge.

1687
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:48,160
Speaker 19: Hey, so's with the president that would be fine.

Speaker 19: Yep, yeah, diving goats. That and the what is it

01:35:55,680 --> 01:35:58,720
Speaker 19: the Blarney stone the barn they have a stone from

1692
01:35:59,040 --> 01:36:00,960
Speaker 19: a castle in Ireland, Scotland.

1693
01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:01,400
Speaker 5: Or something like that.

1694
01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:04,000
Speaker 19: Wow, and you kiss it for good luck. So should

1695

1696
01:36:05,720 --> 01:36:06,879

Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

1714
01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:47,320
Speaker 3: I want to start with some audio. This is a

1715
01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:51,639
Speaker 3: kindergarten teacher in Texas and she's having a very difficult time.

1716
01:36:52,400 --> 01:36:59,280
Speaker 3: She has generated widespread discussion on social media. She revealed

1717
01:36:59,280 --> 01:37:02,360
Speaker 3: that she's home seventy five hundred dollars a month as

1718
01:37:02,360 --> 01:37:06,040
Speaker 3: a kindergarten teacher and it's just not it's not covering

1719
01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:07,560
Speaker 3: all of her bills.

1720
01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:09,439
Speaker 20: Well, I would like to know what part of the

1721
01:37:09,479 --> 01:37:12,320
Speaker 20: country a kindergarten teacher gets seventy five hundred dollars a month.

1722
01:37:12,520 --> 01:37:15,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what ninety thousand here? Yeah, that's pretty good, moddy.

1723
01:37:16,240 --> 01:37:18,040
Speaker 3: So let's take a listen how much.

1724
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:21,960
Speaker 21: My paycheck is as a Texas teacher of kindergarten and

1725
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:24,320
Speaker 21: what I do with it. So my direct deposit hit

1726
01:37:24,360 --> 01:37:27,920
Speaker 21: today it was seven thousand, five hundred dollars and eighty

1727
01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:31,040
Speaker 21: one cents. I did pay the rent at our condo

1728
01:37:31,080 --> 01:37:33,240
Speaker 21: because I am responsible for that. That was three thousand,

1729
01:37:33,320 --> 01:37:36,439
Speaker 21: five hundred and eighty one dollars some change. I'm just

1730
01:37:36,479 --> 01:37:39,760
Speaker 21: going to round everything up here. My utilities for the

1731
01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:43,559
Speaker 21: month at a condo were twelve hundred dollars my gym

1732
01:37:43,640 --> 01:37:47,920
Speaker 21: membership it's two hundred and fifty one dollars a month.

1733
01:37:48,439 --> 01:37:51,080
Speaker 21: I had groceries delivered this month twice, for a total

1734
01:37:51,080 --> 01:37:53,400
Speaker 21: of five hundred and forty eight dollars.

1735
01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:54,759
Speaker 7: I did not have.

1736
01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:58,280
Speaker 21: Enough money this month to move inthroto savings. The payment

1737
01:37:58,320 --> 01:38:00,880
Speaker 21: on my g wagon is one thousand, five hundred and

1738
01:38:00,920 --> 01:38:04,040
Speaker 21: forty eight dollars. I didn't do anything for my kids

1739
01:38:04,080 --> 01:38:06,240
Speaker 21: this month because it was a tight month. As you know,

1740
01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:07,360
Speaker 21: teachers do not make a lot.

1741
01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:08,919
Speaker 2: And then.

1742
01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:12,679
Speaker 21: I did get my hair done twice and my nails,

1743
01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:16,400
Speaker 21: totaling five hundred dollars. I didn't get gas this month.

1744
01:38:16,760 --> 01:38:20,360
Speaker 21: That was my husband's bill. After I add everything up,

1745
01:38:20,400 --> 01:38:22,600
Speaker 21: it was a grand total of negative one hundred and

1746
01:38:22,680 --> 01:38:25,160
Speaker 21: twenty four dollars, and that I'll borrow from my friend.

1747
01:38:25,479 --> 01:38:26,479
Speaker 19: I love being a teacher.

1748
01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:29,280
Speaker 3: Job she's not a math teacher.

1749
01:38:29,400 --> 01:38:32,200
Speaker 19: Oh so some thoughts.

1750
01:38:32,120 --> 01:38:35,280
Speaker 20: Well, this is as simple as it gets. We always

1751
01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:38,400
Speaker 20: talk about priorities, what do you prioritize? And what I

1752
01:38:38,520 --> 01:38:42,200
Speaker 20: gathered in that is that family and children and getting

1753
01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:45,040
Speaker 20: ahead in life is not much of a priority as

1754
01:38:45,080 --> 01:38:48,160
Speaker 20: it is to a status of thirty three thousand, dollars

1755
01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:51,160
Speaker 20: plus in rent, not even owning your home and a

1756
01:38:51,240 --> 01:38:53,640
Speaker 20: g wagon. Is that necessary for your lifestyle?

1757
01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:57,920
Speaker 19: You know, yeah, that's that's an interesting bit there, because

1758
01:38:57,960 --> 01:39:01,840
Speaker 19: you see the temptation has todd to get the shiny thing, right,

1759
01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:05,240
Speaker 19: it's to get the toys. Well, that's all wrong. Good,

1760
01:39:05,320 --> 01:39:08,400
Speaker 19: but guess what. Guess what toys don't do. Toys do

1761
01:39:08,439 --> 01:39:11,639
Speaker 19: not appreciate, in fact, they very much depreciate, very quickly

1762
01:39:11,640 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 19: in fact. So that's that's very interesting. And I understand,

1763
01:39:16,280 --> 01:39:18,360
Speaker 19: you know, we are very sympathetic to teachers. Thank you

1764
01:39:18,360 --> 01:39:20,679
Speaker 19: for your service out there if you're a teacher, because

1765
01:39:20,720 --> 01:39:23,720
Speaker 19: that is a very difficult job and you're you're right

1766
01:39:23,760 --> 01:39:25,559
Speaker 19: on the money there. Teachers do not get paid enough.

1767
01:39:25,600 --> 01:39:29,680
Speaker 19: But seventy five hundred dollars a month. There's definitely some

1768
01:39:29,800 --> 01:39:32,960
Speaker 19: expenses there that are again less of less of needs,

1769
01:39:33,320 --> 01:39:36,000
Speaker 19: and more of status, more of once and more of

1770
01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:38,600
Speaker 19: just trying to fulfill that status. So that's disappointing to

1771
01:39:38,640 --> 01:39:40,280
Speaker 19: hear that was the case because how many people across

1772
01:39:40,280 --> 01:39:41,360
Speaker 19: the country are in that situation.

1773
01:39:41,600 --> 01:39:43,479
Speaker 3: You know, it's a great point and especially and I

1774
01:39:43,479 --> 01:39:46,639
Speaker 3: don't want to you know, target generations here, but gen

1775
01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:51,639
Speaker 3: Z and millennials especially, they are living well beyond their means,

1776
01:39:51,960 --> 01:39:54,639
Speaker 3: and you know, they're spending their money on a lot

1777
01:39:54,680 --> 01:39:58,240
Speaker 3: of things that I would say other generations would consider frivolous.

1778
01:39:58,240 --> 01:40:01,400
Speaker 3: I mean, for example, going to Starbuck every day dropping

1779
01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:03,960
Speaker 3: five six dollars you know, on coffee that you could,

1780
01:40:04,080 --> 01:40:06,519
Speaker 3: you know, make much cheaper at home. And then this

1781
01:40:06,600 --> 01:40:09,160
Speaker 3: whole thing called something called avocado toast. I never never

1782
01:40:09,280 --> 01:40:09,960
Speaker 3: understood that.

1783
01:40:10,400 --> 01:40:12,120
Speaker 20: Well, you know, I think we live in a world

1784
01:40:12,280 --> 01:40:15,960
Speaker 20: of social status. Maybe social media is to blame for that,

1785
01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:19,240
Speaker 20: but you know, what I would tell a lot of

1786
01:40:19,240 --> 01:40:22,800
Speaker 20: people is separate your own situation from somebody else's and

1787
01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:25,639
Speaker 20: think about, Okay, what's causing a pain point in my life.

1788
01:40:25,760 --> 01:40:28,400
Speaker 20: Obviously this was a big stress for her. She wanted

1789
01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:31,120
Speaker 20: to put it out there that hey, I make seventy

1790
01:40:31,120 --> 01:40:33,160
Speaker 20: five hundred, but I don't have nothing to show for it.

1791
01:40:33,240 --> 01:40:34,720
Speaker 3: And what we would.

1792
01:40:34,479 --> 01:40:38,760
Speaker 20: Say in that meeting is just, okay, can we reprioritize

1793
01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:40,760
Speaker 20: what you're wanting to use your money to do for

1794
01:40:40,880 --> 01:40:44,640
Speaker 20: you and put less emphasis on keeping up with the

1795
01:40:44,760 --> 01:40:47,719
Speaker 20: Joneses and more emphasis on how do I get ahead?

1796
01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:49,920
Speaker 20: And we would be in a better position.

1797
01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:52,400
Speaker 19: Yeah, we tell people a lot to they really need

1798
01:40:52,439 --> 01:40:54,800
Speaker 19: to suspend their own disbelief and what does that mean?

1799
01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:56,840
Speaker 19: That means, hey, look, take a good look in the

1800
01:40:56,840 --> 01:40:59,519
Speaker 19: mirror and say, okay, is this really necessary for me

1801
01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:02,160
Speaker 19: to have right now versus like in terms of the

1802
01:41:02,200 --> 01:41:05,200
Speaker 19: tangible items in life, versus taking care of my kids

1803
01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:08,320
Speaker 19: and putting things away for retirement and putting things in

1804
01:41:08,320 --> 01:41:10,400
Speaker 19: savings for a rainy day when the storm comes. And

1805
01:41:10,439 --> 01:41:12,280
Speaker 19: guess what the storm will come at some point where

1806
01:41:12,320 --> 01:41:12,920
Speaker 19: you will need that.

1807
01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:14,720
Speaker 5: Uh. You know, another question that.

1808
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:16,439
Speaker 19: We probably ask is guess what where where is the

1809
01:41:16,520 --> 01:41:17,400
Speaker 19: husband and all this?

1810
01:41:17,800 --> 01:41:17,960
Speaker 5: Right?

1811
01:41:18,120 --> 01:41:21,040
Speaker 19: Do income household that being able to partner that and

1812
01:41:21,200 --> 01:41:23,400
Speaker 19: you know, figure out a game plan. Those go hand

1813
01:41:23,400 --> 01:41:24,160
Speaker 19: in hand with each other.

1814
01:41:24,200 --> 01:41:26,240
Speaker 3: You know, I was wondering about that because you didn't

1815
01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:28,720
Speaker 3: mention she's got the husband there and so okay, do

1816
01:41:28,760 --> 01:41:30,760
Speaker 3: they have is that a joint account or do they

1817
01:41:30,760 --> 01:41:33,280
Speaker 3: have their own separate accounts? And you know they you know,

1818
01:41:33,439 --> 01:41:35,720
Speaker 3: have you, hey, guys ever experienced that where you know,

1819
01:41:36,120 --> 01:41:38,360
Speaker 3: married couples come in and say, okay, how do we

1820
01:41:38,400 --> 01:41:38,720
Speaker 3: do this?

1821
01:41:38,880 --> 01:41:39,320
Speaker 5: We do it?

1822
01:41:39,400 --> 01:41:41,679
Speaker 20: I did with that a lot. Actually, you know, where

1823
01:41:42,320 --> 01:41:44,360
Speaker 20: I want the husband and wife to be on the

1824
01:41:44,400 --> 01:41:48,160
Speaker 20: same team because it creates less friction and it's an

1825
01:41:48,200 --> 01:41:51,880
Speaker 20: easier path going forward if everybody's on the same page.

1826
01:41:51,880 --> 01:41:54,040
Speaker 20: But yeah, we deal with it a lot where it's like, hey,

1827
01:41:54,040 --> 01:41:56,479
Speaker 20: this is my money. It's our agreement in our marriage

1828
01:41:56,479 --> 01:41:58,200
Speaker 20: that what I bring to the table, that's what I

1829
01:41:58,240 --> 01:42:00,800
Speaker 20: get to use to spend, and how they want to

1830
01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:04,200
Speaker 20: allocate it towards retirement or investments or whatever, that's their

1831
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:07,080
Speaker 20: decision to make. We don't do these things jointly. So

1832
01:42:07,120 --> 01:42:10,840
Speaker 20: it's very common. And obviously in that little radio clip

1833
01:42:11,160 --> 01:42:13,439
Speaker 20: she said that the gas was her husband's bill, So

1834
01:42:13,479 --> 01:42:16,559
Speaker 20: I'd imagine that they do their finances that way.

1835
01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:19,760
Speaker 19: You know, we encounter quite a few couples actually where

1836
01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:23,200
Speaker 19: I'm thinking too specifically. They came in in day one.

1837
01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:25,519
Speaker 19: They looked at us and said, you know, we give

1838
01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:28,320
Speaker 19: each other an allowance, which I thought was hysterical because

1839
01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:30,880
Speaker 19: you're like, well, it's y'all's money, so who makes that decision.

1840
01:42:30,920 --> 01:42:32,720
Speaker 19: It's like, well, it's a way for each other to

1841
01:42:32,760 --> 01:42:36,040
Speaker 19: hold ourselves accountable, because how often are we tempted We

1842
01:42:36,400 --> 01:42:38,080
Speaker 19: go down the road and we see the in and

1843
01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:40,920
Speaker 19: out Burger sign light up, or the Waterburger signlight up

1844
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:44,519
Speaker 19: or the Starbucks and we go, oh, that's something I need. Well,

1845
01:42:44,720 --> 01:42:47,320
Speaker 19: not necessarily. If you are operating off of an allowance

1846
01:42:47,360 --> 01:42:49,720
Speaker 19: and a budget strictly, and that way, it's keeping it

1847
01:42:49,920 --> 01:42:53,320
Speaker 19: separate from the household expenses and everything like that, you're

1848
01:42:53,360 --> 01:42:56,559
Speaker 19: able to poortize what actually matters right now versus the once.

1849
01:42:56,760 --> 01:42:59,320
Speaker 3: And that's the thing is understanding what you know again

1850
01:42:59,360 --> 01:43:02,040
Speaker 3: when you all, I grew up in the seventies and eighties,

1851
01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:06,080
Speaker 3: and you know, we lived in a relatively small home.

1852
01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:09,040
Speaker 3: I mean it would be teeny tiny compared to today's statuses.

1853
01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:12,640
Speaker 3: So you wonder, even today are people living well, you know,

1854
01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:17,120
Speaker 3: beyond their means? And you know what, when how do

1855
01:43:17,200 --> 01:43:19,080
Speaker 3: we get back to going back to those days of

1856
01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:19,919
Speaker 3: being frugal?

1857
01:43:20,520 --> 01:43:22,720
Speaker 20: Well, I think it's really when when they have that

1858
01:43:22,840 --> 01:43:25,280
Speaker 20: aha moment. I mean we always say, like we can

1859
01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:27,559
Speaker 20: lead a horse to water, but we can't make it drink.

1860
01:43:27,600 --> 01:43:30,360
Speaker 20: And part of what we do is financial advisors, is

1861
01:43:30,960 --> 01:43:33,040
Speaker 20: we have to be those life coaches. We have to

1862
01:43:33,040 --> 01:43:36,479
Speaker 20: be the ones that present the difficult conversations to them

1863
01:43:36,520 --> 01:43:39,200
Speaker 20: and force them to talk about it because I'd imagine this,

1864
01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:42,320
Speaker 20: you know today, her lifestyle is is keeping up with

1865
01:43:42,360 --> 01:43:44,800
Speaker 20: the Joneses and having a status that she wants to

1866
01:43:45,360 --> 01:43:48,160
Speaker 20: project out to everybody. But maybe when she's older and

1867
01:43:48,240 --> 01:43:50,160
Speaker 20: all those things don't matter anymore, she may have an

1868
01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:52,360
Speaker 20: epiphany and say, what was I thinking?

1869
01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:55,519
Speaker 3: I always think about Warren Buffett, who still lives in

1870
01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:57,479
Speaker 3: the same house that he lived in before he became

1871
01:43:57,520 --> 01:44:00,479
Speaker 3: a bazillionaire, still goes through the driving through it make Donald's.

1872
01:44:00,479 --> 01:44:03,160
Speaker 3: You need to get his breakfast, same thing every time. Yeah,

1873
01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:05,200
Speaker 3: it's it's the It's. But I think there's a lot

1874
01:44:05,200 --> 01:44:06,120
Speaker 3: for us to learn there.

1875
01:44:06,360 --> 01:44:06,519
Speaker 4: Well.

1876
01:44:06,640 --> 01:44:10,880
Speaker 19: Consistency, for one, right, you know, less trying to just

1877
01:44:11,040 --> 01:44:14,080
Speaker 19: one up the next person on social media or a

1878
01:44:14,080 --> 01:44:17,400
Speaker 19: neighbor with the nice car, the nice food, or the

1879
01:44:17,479 --> 01:44:19,880
Speaker 19: eight dollars coffee that doesn't even taste good at the

1880
01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:22,760
Speaker 19: end of the day. Uh, but being able to look

1881
01:44:22,800 --> 01:44:24,600
Speaker 19: down and say, Okay, hey, I can do this. This

1882
01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:28,040
Speaker 19: is manageable, and it gives me room to grow, not room,

1883
01:44:28,240 --> 01:44:29,720
Speaker 19: not to where I'm having to feel like I'm having

1884
01:44:29,720 --> 01:44:30,240
Speaker 19: to catch up.

1885
01:44:30,320 --> 01:44:31,519
Speaker 3: It's a it's a great point.

1886
01:44:31,920 --> 01:44:32,240
Speaker 5: All right.

1887
01:44:32,280 --> 01:44:34,639
Speaker 3: We've got Adam Martin and Chris Loftus with us from

1888
01:44:34,680 --> 01:44:39,320
Speaker 3: Strategic Financial Partners. Strategic Financial Partners dot com is the

1889
01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:41,519
Speaker 3: website and if you have a question, give us a

1890
01:44:41,560 --> 01:44:44,320
Speaker 3: call nine oh one two six zero five nine two six,

1891
01:44:44,600 --> 01:44:47,000
Speaker 3: or if you have a suggestion for this kindergarten teacher,

1892
01:44:47,360 --> 01:44:51,320
Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

1893
01:44:51,479 --> 01:44:54,080
Speaker 3: I remember when I was growing up and going through school,

1894
01:44:54,120 --> 01:44:57,280
Speaker 3: you know, we had to take a home finance course, right,

1895
01:44:57,439 --> 01:45:00,280
Speaker 3: so it was part of you know, getting ready to grant, wait,

1896
01:45:00,640 --> 01:45:03,679
Speaker 3: learning how to balance a checkbook and do all those things.

1897
01:45:03,760 --> 01:45:07,280
Speaker 3: And you wonder are they teaching kids those those skills

1898
01:45:07,760 --> 01:45:09,280
Speaker 3: in modern day schools.

1899
01:45:09,360 --> 01:45:11,040
Speaker 20: Well, I tell you I think they could definitely do

1900
01:45:11,080 --> 01:45:13,439
Speaker 20: a better job at that. And one of the things

1901
01:45:13,439 --> 01:45:15,680
Speaker 20: that our firm actually does is we partner with the

1902
01:45:15,720 --> 01:45:19,560
Speaker 20: Junior Achievement of Memphis and we do go to classrooms

1903
01:45:19,600 --> 01:45:23,120
Speaker 20: and we basically give them a little educational seminar about,

1904
01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:26,840
Speaker 20: you know, how to balance a checkbook or how to

1905
01:45:26,160 --> 01:45:29,439
Speaker 20: take control of your finances when you start making money.

1906
01:45:29,520 --> 01:45:32,160
Speaker 20: And I firmly believe that if we want to see

1907
01:45:32,160 --> 01:45:35,519
Speaker 20: a shift in our in our generations ahead, we've got

1908
01:45:35,520 --> 01:45:37,120
Speaker 20: to do a better job at educating them.

1909
01:45:37,479 --> 01:45:37,680
Speaker 5: You know.

1910
01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:40,800
Speaker 19: To add something to that, something I've noticed is that well,

1911
01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:42,759
Speaker 19: I'll use a story for this. One of my earliest

1912
01:45:42,760 --> 01:45:45,679
Speaker 19: memories when it comes to finance is my dad take

1913
01:45:45,760 --> 01:45:48,120
Speaker 19: me to when it was sun Trust Bank and opening

1914
01:45:48,160 --> 01:45:50,280
Speaker 19: up a bank account and I got my very first checkbook,

1915
01:45:50,360 --> 01:45:52,639
Speaker 19: and he sat down with me that night and taught

1916
01:45:52,640 --> 01:45:56,040
Speaker 19: me line by line how to craft a monthly budget

1917
01:45:56,120 --> 01:45:59,519
Speaker 19: with all my expenses accounted for. We can talk about

1918
01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:02,519
Speaker 19: a generational failure all we want, but I bet you

1919
01:46:02,520 --> 01:46:04,519
Speaker 19: there's probably a lot of parents out there that are

1920
01:46:04,560 --> 01:46:07,000
Speaker 19: not sitting down with their kids and walking them through

1921
01:46:07,040 --> 01:46:09,200
Speaker 19: how to do that on an individual basis. We talk

1922
01:46:09,240 --> 01:46:12,080
Speaker 19: about business expenses a lot, we talk about household expenses

1923
01:46:12,080 --> 01:46:15,080
Speaker 19: a lot, but it comes to personal expenses that starts early,

1924
01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:18,439
Speaker 19: especially when it comes down to you know, putting your

1925
01:46:18,479 --> 01:46:20,280
Speaker 19: your the pedals to the metal and saying, okay, hey,

1926
01:46:20,280 --> 01:46:22,040
Speaker 19: we were only going to spend this amount. This is

1927
01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:24,160
Speaker 19: within our means. We're not going to go above this.

1928
01:46:24,400 --> 01:46:26,160
Speaker 19: So it's very easy fall into that truck, you.

1929
01:46:26,080 --> 01:46:30,360
Speaker 3: Know, for me, it was really my dad was the

1930
01:46:30,360 --> 01:46:32,240
Speaker 3: same way. And it's like, you know, you turn a

1931
01:46:32,240 --> 01:46:34,200
Speaker 3: certain age, you get your first job, you know, you

1932
01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:37,679
Speaker 3: get a little part time job, uh, you start earning money.

1933
01:46:38,040 --> 01:46:40,160
Speaker 3: When it was time to buy a car. I ended

1934
01:46:40,240 --> 01:46:44,160
Speaker 3: up buying my grandpa's old Oh gosh, what was that?

1935
01:46:44,880 --> 01:46:47,639
Speaker 3: Oh Jesus a loo. It was a little pickup truck.

1936
01:46:47,720 --> 01:46:48,559
Speaker 3: Low What was the low?

1937
01:46:49,120 --> 01:46:50,799
Speaker 19: That Chevy Ford?

1938
01:46:51,120 --> 01:46:51,360
Speaker 13: It was?

1939
01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:53,480
Speaker 3: It was a forward.

1940
01:46:55,560 --> 01:46:56,160
Speaker 2: That's awesome.

1941
01:46:56,720 --> 01:46:59,080
Speaker 3: What was the name is a low slung truck? It

1942
01:46:59,120 --> 01:47:02,400
Speaker 3: was really cool with arkly baby blue paint. So I

1943
01:47:02,520 --> 01:47:03,960
Speaker 3: was it was the pride of white Haven.

1944
01:47:04,520 --> 01:47:06,120
Speaker 19: Everybody knew who was driving down road when the.

1945
01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:08,760
Speaker 3: Oh yeah yeah, but you know what, I had to

1946
01:47:08,760 --> 01:47:10,800
Speaker 3: make sure that I had enough money coming in to

1947
01:47:10,880 --> 01:47:13,160
Speaker 3: pay for gas and pay for insurance, and that those

1948
01:47:13,160 --> 01:47:16,360
Speaker 3: are the big things. And you you, you nowadays you

1949
01:47:16,439 --> 01:47:20,080
Speaker 3: watch these kids and they're driving like brand new cars

1950
01:47:20,320 --> 01:47:22,519
Speaker 3: off the you know, off the dealership, and you're like,

1951
01:47:22,880 --> 01:47:24,920
Speaker 3: holy cow, you know what kind of lessons are you

1952
01:47:24,920 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 3: teaching those kids? And by the way, they're going to

1953
01:47:27,040 --> 01:47:28,120
Speaker 3: be wrecking that vehicle?

1954
01:47:28,360 --> 01:47:29,519
Speaker 5: No, yeah, no doubt.

1955
01:47:29,600 --> 01:47:30,840
Speaker 20: I mean, and.

1956
01:47:30,400 --> 01:47:34,679
Speaker 3: Al Camino was gonna come to me an El Camino.

1957
01:47:34,920 --> 01:47:40,120
Speaker 20: You know, Opportunity often disguises itself as work. To be disciplined,

1958
01:47:40,200 --> 01:47:42,559
Speaker 20: you have to work at that. And when we think

1959
01:47:42,560 --> 01:47:45,680
Speaker 20: about like how do I get ahead, it's being disciplined,

1960
01:47:45,760 --> 01:47:48,400
Speaker 20: sticking to a plan. That's what we're here to do

1961
01:47:48,479 --> 01:47:50,439
Speaker 20: is get in front of you and identify it. So

1962
01:47:50,600 --> 01:47:53,160
Speaker 20: if I was speaking to that teacher, I'd say, here's

1963
01:47:53,200 --> 01:47:56,000
Speaker 20: what I see are the issues, and how do you

1964
01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:58,360
Speaker 20: want to address this? Are you willing to give up

1965
01:47:58,400 --> 01:48:00,760
Speaker 20: paying as much as you do every month for a

1966
01:48:00,800 --> 01:48:03,400
Speaker 20: car that's not necessary? You know, we could get from

1967
01:48:03,439 --> 01:48:06,160
Speaker 20: A to B with a cheaper car. That's gonna free

1968
01:48:06,240 --> 01:48:08,840
Speaker 20: up cash flow for you. If do we have to

1969
01:48:08,880 --> 01:48:12,000
Speaker 20: spend as much on our manicures, pedicures in our hair,

1970
01:48:12,120 --> 01:48:16,040
Speaker 20: just gym membership, gym memberships, you know, go outside lift

1971
01:48:16,080 --> 01:48:19,400
Speaker 20: something heavy for free, you know. But I'm not saying

1972
01:48:19,439 --> 01:48:21,360
Speaker 20: we have to go to the extremes. We want you

1973
01:48:21,439 --> 01:48:24,120
Speaker 20: to continue to live the life you want, but we're

1974
01:48:24,160 --> 01:48:26,160
Speaker 20: gonna help you figure out how to free up those

1975
01:48:26,200 --> 01:48:28,680
Speaker 20: dollars that we can address the things that are inevitable.

1976
01:48:28,720 --> 01:48:30,559
Speaker 20: I mean, you're gonna quit work at some point in

1977
01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:32,439
Speaker 20: your life. How do you pay your bills if we

1978
01:48:32,439 --> 01:48:34,200
Speaker 20: don't have anything stored away for retirement?

1979
01:48:34,680 --> 01:48:35,599
Speaker 3: You know, it's a great point.

1980
01:48:35,920 --> 01:48:38,320
Speaker 20: I mean, sofe security is going through its turmoils now.

1981
01:48:38,479 --> 01:48:40,559
Speaker 20: I hope that it's there, but what if that's not there.

1982
01:48:40,600 --> 01:48:42,280
Speaker 20: How do we how do we live in retirement?

1983
01:48:42,560 --> 01:48:44,240
Speaker 3: You know, you look at other cultures as well.

1984
01:48:44,280 --> 01:48:44,559
Speaker 2: Guys.

1985
01:48:44,600 --> 01:48:46,519
Speaker 3: I was, you know, I'm trying to figure out do

1986
01:48:46,600 --> 01:48:48,559
Speaker 3: I really want to buy a house or am I

1987
01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:51,160
Speaker 3: happy being on a condo where everything is taken care of?

1988
01:48:51,560 --> 01:48:53,639
Speaker 3: And then it's like I got the call, oh, well,

1989
01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:55,759
Speaker 3: maybe you need to go ahead and start making plans

1990
01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:57,599
Speaker 3: for the forever home. But you know, in a lot

1991
01:48:57,640 --> 01:49:01,400
Speaker 3: of societies that never happens. Mom and dad and grandma

1992
01:49:01,479 --> 01:49:04,080
Speaker 3: and grandpa everybody, at least back in this country, it

1993
01:49:04,160 --> 01:49:06,400
Speaker 3: used to be that way. But now, you know, the

1994
01:49:06,439 --> 01:49:09,720
Speaker 3: family seemed to be disjointed, and I think there was

1995
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:13,519
Speaker 3: a movement at some point of the country for people

1996
01:49:13,560 --> 01:49:15,080
Speaker 3: to you know, kick the kids out of the house

1997
01:49:15,080 --> 01:49:17,400
Speaker 3: when they're eighteen years old. But now it looks like

1998
01:49:17,439 --> 01:49:20,240
Speaker 3: people are going back to that, you know, let's keep

1999
01:49:20,280 --> 01:49:21,679
Speaker 3: all the family under one roof.

2000
01:49:21,960 --> 01:49:24,000
Speaker 20: Yeah, And I did see a statistic the other day

2001
01:49:24,040 --> 01:49:28,120
Speaker 20: where the average age of home buyers is getting lower

2002
01:49:28,120 --> 01:49:29,880
Speaker 20: and lower. I think there was like a thirty percent

2003
01:49:29,920 --> 01:49:33,000
Speaker 20: increase for first time home buyers of age thirty six,

2004
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:36,479
Speaker 20: and so I'm I'm glad to see that trend coming back.

2005
01:49:36,520 --> 01:49:38,360
Speaker 20: You know, one of the things that she mentioned was

2006
01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:41,120
Speaker 20: that she pays rent. You're getting no equity and you're

2007
01:49:41,160 --> 01:49:43,800
Speaker 20: paying over three thousand dollars a month for something that

2008
01:49:43,840 --> 01:49:47,439
Speaker 20: you rent. The home for a lot of young people

2009
01:49:47,560 --> 01:49:49,679
Speaker 20: is the first place where they really start to see

2010
01:49:49,720 --> 01:49:52,920
Speaker 20: substantial net worth because the equity in their home increases.

2011
01:49:53,840 --> 01:49:56,439
Speaker 3: That's amazing, Guys. Where can people go if they want
