00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 3: The voice of free speech, the truth delivered common sense

9
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 3: for the American view of Welcome to the Scott Jenning Show.

10
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 3: Will the Iran ceasefire hold?

11
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: We'll have the latest on this with Eli Lake in

12
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: just a few minutes. Congressman Tom Cole joins to discuss

13
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 1: what happens when Congress returns to Washington next week. Interior

14
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: Secretary Doug Bergham is here today to talk about beautifying Washington,

15
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: DC ahead of America's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary, and

16
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: the Artemis Astronauts talk to the world as they speed

17
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: toward a Friday night splashdown back home. It is Thursday,

18
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: April the ninth. This is common sense for the American people,

19
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: and I am Scott Jennings broadcasting for Salem and on

20
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: this day in history, a defining moment for the nation.

21
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: In eighteen sixty five, the American Civil War came to

22
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: an end as Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered to

23
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: Union General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Courthouse. As for

24
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: today's news, we begin with Iran, and as far as

25
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: we know, the peace talks set for this weekend are

26
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: still on. Vice President Vance set to lead the delegation

27
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: to Pakistan to work.

28
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: Out something with the Iranians.

29
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 1: If this meeting goes through, it will be the highest

30
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: level American meeting with this particular regime since it took power.

31
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: But this has pardon me, but this ceasefire is somewhat

32
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: ragged around the edges today.

33
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 2: Those tears are getting bigger every moment.

34
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: It is a fair question to ask can Iran even

35
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: be trusted to keep any promises today or in the future.

36
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: The President says the US military remains locked and loaded

37
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: should Iran violate the agreement, but some people say they already.

38
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: Are two major issues to discuss. First, Iran is angry

39
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: that Israel is shelling Hesbela and Lebanon. Heavy bombardment continues

40
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: in Beirut. The Iranians want the Israelis to stop the

41
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: allies say this was never part of the deal and

42
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: this is just into the show here. Prime Minister NETANYAHUO

43
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: in Israel has released a statement I'll read it for

44
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: you quote. In light of Lebanon's repeated request to open

45
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: direct negotiations with Israel, I instructed yesterday to begin direct

46
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: negotiations with Lebanon as.

47
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 2: Soon as possible.

48
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: The negotiations will focus on disarming Hesbela and establishing peaceful

49
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: relations between Israel and Lebanon. Israel appreciates the Lebanese Prime

50
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: Minister's call to demilitarize as Bay Roots, so there may

51
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 1: be some movement on this topic. The other issue, of course,

52
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: is the Strait of Hormews. Iran still has something of

53
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: a chokehold on it. Trump said the ceasefire will only

54
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: be valid if it is fully open. That doesn't seem

55
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: to have happened yet, although although a handful of vessels

56
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: have passed through the strait today so there is some

57
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: activity there. Hour by hour things change, Public posturing occurs,

58
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 1: Misinformation and propaganda is put into the water by numerous parties,

59
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: including some in the media who falsely reported that the

60
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: United States had accepted some ridiculous ten point plan from

61
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: the Iranians. Not so fast, says White House Press Secretary

62
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: Caroline Levitt.

63
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: Let's hear her and cut number twelve.

64
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 4: The Iranians originally put forward a ten point plan that

65
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 4: was fundamentally unserious, unacceptable, and completely discarded.

66
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 2: It was literally thrown in.

67
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 4: The garbage by President Trump and his negotiating team. Many

68
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 4: outlets in this room have falsely reported on that plan

69
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 4: as being acceptable to the United States, and that is false.

70
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: The bottom line question here is will all of this

71
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: hold together long enough to get to the negotiating table

72
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 1: on Saturday. Well, we all wait, and we all watch,

73
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: and we follow the breaking news here on the Scott

74
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: Jennings Show. Now, this Iran business has further frayed President

75
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: Trump's already jaundice view of the NATO alliance. He's publicly

76
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: musing about what the future of NATO might look like.

77
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: Several NATO allies have been less than helpful on the

78
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: Iran issue, and Trump has certainly noticed. The President did

79
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: meet with NATO's Secretary General Mark Ruda last night in

80
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: the White House. Ruda was asked by CNN yesterday if

81
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: what the US has done to Iran militarily has made

82
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: the world a safer place.

83
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 2: His answer in cut number three is.

84
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 5: The world safer today than it was before the war

85
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 5: was started?

86
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 6: Absolutely because, and this is thanks to President trump leadership,

87
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 6: the degrading these capabilities is really really very important for

88
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 6: your and my safety here in the US, in Europe,

89
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 6: in the Middle East.

90
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: While Trump remains angry with NATO, his meeting with Ruda

91
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: last night appears to have at least delayed any dramatic

92
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 1: statements about the US withdrawing from the alliance. But you

93
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: can bet the President remains very upset by the actions,

94
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: or rather inactions of some of our supposed allies in NATO.

95
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,359
Speaker 1: In box today from the Department of Homeland Security, the

96
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: numbers are in and eleven straight months of zero releases

97
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: at the Southern border. Daily apprehensions are down ninety five

98
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: percent from the Biden years. The Southern border is more

99
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: secure now than at any time in our nation's history,

100
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: it seems to me speaking of has arrested more than

101
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: eight hundred people after receiving tips from the TSA using

102
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: data from over thirty one thousand airline passengers. That program

103
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: was originally designed for counter terrorism, they're now using it

104
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 1: to track down immigration suspects and even anticipate their travel plans.

105
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: The Artemist two astronauts are on their way home, and

106
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: last night they made a few comments about their mission.

107
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,559
Speaker 1: These four people up in space. They embody the word team.

108
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: Take a Listen to mission specialist Christina Cooke here in

109
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: cut number twenty.

110
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 7: I will miss this camaraderie.

111
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 2: I will miss.

112
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 7: Being this close with this many people and having a

113
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 7: common purpose, a common mission, getting to work on it

114
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 7: hard at heart every day across hundreds of thousands of

115
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 7: miles with a team on the ground. This sense of

116
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 7: teamwork is something that you don't usually get like as

117
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 7: an adult. I mean, we are close like brothers and sisters,

118
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 7: and that is a privilege we will never have again.

119
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 7: I have to say, I don't think there's anything I

120
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 7: would say I won't miss or that I'm just ready

121
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 7: to be over, because this whole thing is a package.

122
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 7: We can't explore deeper unless we are doing a few

123
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 7: things that are inconvenient, unless we're making a few sacrifices,

124
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 7: unless we're taking a few risks, and those things are

125
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 7: all worth it.

126
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: Really, I've enjoyed listening to the Artemis crew talk to

127
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: the people of Earth while they're on this extraordinary mission.

128
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: The Friday Nights splashed down off the coast of San

129
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: Diego remains on track for these brave astronauts. Secretary of

130
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: War Pete Hegseth is moving the military away from its

131
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: long standing partnerships with ID League schools, and they're now

132
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: focusing on other colleges like our friends at Hillsdale College

133
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: up in Michigan. Hillsdale President Larry arn has sent a

134
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: letter to Hegseth and said the college would be honored

135
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: to teach military officers through the Senior Service College Fellowship program,

136
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: which educates potential defense leaders. I can't think of a

137
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: better place, frankly than Hillsdale for military leaders to learn

138
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: about the American tradition, to learn about Western civilization and

139
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: why defending these values is so vital to our future.

140
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: The Trump administration is taking aim at schools in Los

141
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: Angeles over transgender policies. Federal officials are investigating the LA

142
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: School District, focusing on rules that allow schools to withhold

143
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: a student's gender identity from parents. The administration says that

144
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: violates parental rights and it undermines transparency in education. The

145
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 1: hours top story is, will we have peace talks with

146
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: Iran this weekend supposed to take place in Pakistan, and

147
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: will the issues at play derail those peace talks. One

148
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: of the issues is the continued fighting going on between

149
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: Israel and Hesbola, which operates out of Lebanon, is mad

150
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,719
Speaker 1: about that. The Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has reached out

151
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: to Lebanon about talks regarding this matter. I do have

152
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: some fresh audio into the Scott Jennings show the guys

153
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: in the booth. We'll call an audible here. We have

154
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 1: the Vice President now jd Vance. Let's hear what he

155
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: has to say about the possibility of Iran calling off

156
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: peace talks over the Lebanon issue. We'll hear the Vice

157
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 1: president here and cut number twenty eight.

158
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 5: But look, if Iran wants to let this negotiation fall

159
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 5: apart in a conflict where they were getting cammered over Lebanon,

160
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 5: which has nothing to do with them and which the

161
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 5: United States never once said was part of the ceasefire,

162
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 5: that's ultimately their choice.

163
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 2: We think that would be dumb.

164
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 8: But that's their choice.

165
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 1: Vice President Jade Vance is set to lead the US

166
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: delegation to Pakistan with Witkoff and Kushner on Saturday. A

167
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: word from our friends at Relief Factor. You know, our

168
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: founders believe that freedom wasn't just a word, it was

169
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: a way of life, the freedom to move forward, to

170
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: pursue what matters most, to live your life fully. But

171
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: pain has a way of taking away that freedom, doesn't it.

172
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: That's why relief Factor exists. You know, we like it

173
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: in the Jennings Household, part of our daily routine there.

174
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: Relief Factor is a one hundred percent drug free, research

175
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 1: based supplement designed to help support a healthy inflammatory response,

176
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: addressing pain at its source, not just covering it up. Now,

177
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: over a million Americans have found relief and reclaimed parts

178
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: of life they thought were gone forever. So this year,

179
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: as we celebrate two hundred and fifty years of American freedom,

180
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: ask yourself a simple question.

181
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: Are you living with a freedom that you deserve?

182
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: Relief Factor gives you the opportunity to live pain free

183
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: and get back to the life that you love. Here's

184
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: how you get started. It's called the three week Quick

185
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: Start Plan. It costs but nineteen dollars in DA ninety

186
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: five cents. You visit relief Factor dot com or call

187

Speaker 1: one eight hundred four relief coming up. Eli Lake joins

188
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: us as we continue the conversation on Iran.

189
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 2: Right after this. Gold and silver recently soared to record.

190
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: Highs and then pulled back, So our precious metal still

191
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 1: a goodbye. Many Wall Street experts predict higher prices ahead.

192
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: Why well, because we still have trillions in national debt,

193
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:30,599
Speaker 1: a declining dollar, and inflation that keeps shrinking our savings.

194
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: Even with corrections along the way, gold remains.

195
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 2: A historical hedge for wealth protection.

196
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: That's why Morgan Stanley's chief investment officer ditched the sixty

197

Speaker 1: forty stocks in bonds portfolio and is recommending up to

Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show here on Thursday, April ninth,

211
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: tracking the ceasefire in Iran? Will it hold? Will we

212
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,359
Speaker 1: get to peace talks on Saturday? Our next guest.

213
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 2: Is Eli Lake.

214
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: He's a columnist and host of Breaking History for the

215
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: Free Press and a contributing editor at Commentary. His latest

216
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: piece caught my attention entitled Trump's Madman Act Delivers in Iran.

217
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: Eli Lake, Welcome into the Scott Chenning Show.

218
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 10: Oh, thanks so much for having me, big fan.

219
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: Well, I'm same here, been reading you for years. You

220
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: wrote this piece just after the ceasefire was announced. Obviously

221
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: a few things have occurred since that moment. Where do

222
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: you think things stand at this hour? Are we going

223
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: to get to the negotiating table on Saturday?

224
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 10: It's unclear and it's touch and go. Some of the

225
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 10: public statements from the people who would effectively be in

226
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 10: charge of the battered regime in Iran suggests that unless

227
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 10: there is a sort of ceasefire in Lebanon, then there

228
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 10: will be no talks. That said, as you read at

229
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 10: the top of the show, there seems to be some

230
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 10: wiggle room from Prime Minister net Yahoo in this respect.

231
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 10: I think it's fairly important because he is saying that

232
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 10: he is in touch with the government in Lebanon that

233
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 10: for the longest time was bullied by Hasballah and Iran

234
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 10: into basically allowing a kind of state within a state

235
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:57,359
Speaker 10: to put their own country at great risk. And finally,

236
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 10: because of Israel's milit terry campaign against Hesbla, on the

237
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 10: American Israel campaign against Iran, we're starting to see that

238
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 10: the government in Bayroot has found some carriage and has

239
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 10: you know, expelled the Iranian ambassador is in the process

240
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 10: of now at least claiming that they would like to

241
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 10: take on this this other militia in southern Lebanon and Hesbelah.

242
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 10: That is a very good thing. And I think that

243
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 10: if Netnyaho can secure some important pledges, and then I

244
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 10: think the question is capability at this point not so,

245
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 10: you know, with the Lebanese, then backing off now might

246
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 10: be a very wise move to give the US some

247
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 10: time in these discussions to see what they can get

248
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 10: out of the Iranians and these talks that begin over

249
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 10: the weekend, and then to do it in partnership with

250
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 10: the government in Bayrout really is a game changer.

251
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: The other issue, of course, is the Strait of Horror moves.

252
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: When Trump announced this ceasefire, he said it was pen

253
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: the opening of the Strait of Horror moves. Iran has

254
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: had something of a choke hold on this. I think

255
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: a few ships went through yesterday. There's been some activity today.

256
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: Do you consider this to be fully opened at this point,

257
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: as the President called for? Does it need to be

258
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: quote fully opened before we show up at this meeting

259
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: on Saturday.

260
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 10: Well, I do think it's not fully opened, but I

261
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 10: also think that at this point it's worth it if

262
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 10: you can, if you feel like you can get the

263
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 10: agreement to open it, because what that does is that

264
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 10: really does take care of this risk of an economic

265
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 10: shock as a result of the war. And that's important

266
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 10: politically for the President, it's important obviously for regular Americans,

267
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 10: and I think it buys him more time if he

268
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 10: needs to use military activity later on. So that's the

269
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 10: one hard power threat and piece of leverage that the

270
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 10: Iranians have is the ability to harass and threaten shipping

271
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 10: through the Strait of Our Mouse. If they're willing to

272
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 10: back that away then, I mean, all all the rest

273
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 10: of their military is pretty wrecked. Their ability to threaten

274
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 10: their neighbors has been significantly diminished. Although they still have

275
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 10: some ballistic missiles, and you know, much of their nuclear

276
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 10: program was destroyed in the Twelve Day War, there are

277
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 10: still important, you know, interests. The United States has to

278
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 10: get out of these negotiations and would like to get

279
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 10: out of these negotiations, mainly the over nine hundred pounds

280
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 10: of enriched uranium, which we think is buried beneath you know,

281
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 10: one of these kind of cratered Enrichmond facilities in Isfahan

282
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 10: or somewhere else. But that right there, you know, is

283
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 10: kind of you can I could see even if you

284
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 10: don't get an agreement right away on that. The Iranians

285
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 10: have been set back enormously on their nuclear ambitions, and

286
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 10: I think their regime is significantly weakened, their militaries and

287
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 10: you know, dire straits. So I think overall, right now,

288
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 10: I'd rather be America than Iran.

289
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's pretty easy to tell who's winning

290
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: and losing here, unless unless you're a Democrat or somebody

291
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: in the American punditocracy. Who's just committed to making everything

292
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 1: negative about Donald Trump, then you're having a very difficult

293
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: time telling the good guys from the bad guys.

294
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:13,320

312
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 2: Hey, it's Scott Jennings. I have a message about crime.

313
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: It's skyrocketing and you may already own a firearm. However,

314
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: before you face the financial, legal, and emotional weight of

315
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 1: pulling the trigger, there's a smarter option.

316
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,199
Speaker 2: It's called Burna. That's b y r in a. Let

317
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 2: me tell you about it.

318
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: Burna makes less lethal launchers that fire tear gas and

319
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: kinetic rounds designed to stop an attacker for up to

320
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: forty minutes that gives you time to escape and call

321
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: for help without deadly consequences. Their best selling Compact launcher

322
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 1: is sleek, slim, and incredibly powerful. It's about the size

323
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: of a smartphone. It's ideal for concealed carry, comfortable, discreete

324
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,479
Speaker 1: and confidence building. I got to tell you I've used it,

325
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 1: I've shot it. You would really really be amazed at

326
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: what this Burna launcher can do. It fires at four

327
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: hundred feet per second with serious stopping power, enough to

328
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 1: shut down a threat fast and without the legal and

329
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: moral complexity of lethal force. Burna is proudly American. Over

330
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 1: eighty percent of the components are US sourced. Every launcher

331

Speaker 1: is hand assembled in Fort Wayne, Indiana, with over seven

332
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand of these things sold worldwide. Burna

Speaker 9: Scott Jennings.

339
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 2: It is Thursday, April the ninth.

340
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: Welcome back to common sense for the American people.

341
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 2: It is day fifty four of.

342
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: The Democrat shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, which

343
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: of course continues to raise serious concerns about our national

344
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: security at a time of war. Coming up in sixty seconds,

345
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: we have the Chairman of the House House Appropriations Committee,

346
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 1: Tom Cole of Oklahoma. He is joining us live to

347
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: discuss the prospects for getting DHS reopened. First, I do

348
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: need to deliver a serious message from our friends at

349
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: Child Help. Every single day in America, six children lose

350
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: their lives due to abuse or neglect. Now April is

351
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: National Child Abuse Awareness Month. This is a time that

352
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 1: we need to shine a light on a crisis that

353
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: often goes unseen until tragedy strikes. Most people don't realize

354
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: how common child abuse really is or how often it

355
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: happens behind closed doors.

356
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 2: For nearly seven.

357
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: Decades, child Help has been on the front lines of

358
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 1: prevention and healing, working nationwide to protect children through education,

359
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: advocacy centers, foster care and adoption services, therapy, and of course,

360
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 1: their twenty four to seven.

361
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 2: National Child Abuse Hotline.

362
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: If something doesn't feel right, you don't have to be

363
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: certain to reach out and make a call, and just

364
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: one call can.

365
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 2: Help save a child's life.

00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,200
Speaker 1: Visit childhelp dot org to learn the signs, to find

367
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 1: support and to be part of the solution. Every child,

368
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: every child deserves a safe childhood, and every voice matters.

369
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: This is Scott Jennings Broadcasting for Salem. Joining us now

370
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: is Republican Congressman Tom Cole of Oklahoma. He is the

371
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee. Mister Chairman, great to

372
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: have you back on the Scott Jennings Show. Before we

373
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: get to the legislating that needs to be done next week,

374
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: I wanted to get your quick reaction to the situation

375
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,479
Speaker 1: where Iran, the ceasefire and these peace talks that are

376
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 1: supposed to happen this weekend.

377
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 2: How are you feeling about it all?

378
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,400
Speaker 11: Sir well, I have a lot of confidence in President

379
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 11: Trump on this look. I think he's achieved most of

380
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 11: the military objectives we have. That is, he's significantly there

381
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 11: is no Iranian for there is no Iranian navy. He

382
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 11: significantly degraded their missile and drone capability. The launches were

383
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 11: down over ninety percent, of missiles over eighty percent the

384
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 11: time of drones at the time of the ceasefire. Obviously,

385
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 11: the Israelis have taken out a couple of layers of

386
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 11: Iranian leadership, and I don't know obviously what's going on

387
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 11: behind the scenes in terms of discussions. I've learned what's

388
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 11: said privately doesn't always reflect what the Iranians say publicly.

389
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 11: But the President clearly season opening air and has given

390
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 11: them an opportunity. But I think it's also signals he's

391
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 11: quite prepared to go to the next level militarily if

392
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 11: that's needed. And the balls in the Iranian court now,

393
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 11: I think pretty quickly we'll know whether or not they're

394
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 11: going to open up the Strait of Hormuz. Pretty quickly,

395
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 11: We're going to know whether or not they are serious

396
00:22:55,359 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 11: about lowering their involvement in terrorism within the region. And

397
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 11: I think We've already made the nuclear option, one that

398
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 11: you know is very difficult for them. I mean, the

399
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 11: nuclear material that we know they have, they have a

400
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 11: hard time getting to because it's buried under tons of rubble,

401
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 11: and it's something we can do at our will. So again,

402
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 11: we'll find out if they want to sit down and

403
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 11: come to a deal. I think the president's a reasonable guy.

404
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 11: If they're not, then there's certainly the prospect to presume

405
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 11: military activity.

406
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 2: All right, let's bring it home to Washington, d C.

407
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: Congress has been on recess for Easter that ends next week.

408
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 1: You all will be coming back to town, and you're

409
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: coming back to town with the Department of Homeland Security still

410
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: shut down. The Democrats have had this shutdown. It's the

411
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,120
Speaker 1: longest shutdown of any part of our government in US history.

412
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: There is this two track plan. One track to fund DHS,

413
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 1: sands immigration enforcement through an appropriations bill and the second

414
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: track to fund immigration enforcement plus other things through a

415
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 1: budget reconciliation track. Is that still the plan and do

416
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: you anticipate the House acting on that early next week?

417
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 11: I think that is the plan. It's unfortunate, by the

418
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 11: way we're at this point. The House has passed four

419
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 11: times full funding for the entire department, and to be

420
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 11: fair to the Senate, they have to at least in

421
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 11: terms of a majority of votes. We've got a pretty

422
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 11: solid fifty five, pretty much all the Republicans couple the Democrats.

423
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 11: So this is really a problem created by Senate Democrats,

424
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 11: egged on, I will say, by House Democrats. But you know,

425
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 11: we have majorities in both chambers that ought to be sufficient.

426
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 11: We have the filibuster. There's a couple ways around that

427
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 11: the Senate could change. That's not my business. I respect

428
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,239
Speaker 11: the Senate's choice of what it wants to do. Or

429
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 11: they could simply remove appropriations bills from the ability to filibuster.

430
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,479
Speaker 11: Then we've done that with the appointment process to judges.

431
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 11: So there's a couple of things there. But I do

432
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 11: think we will eventually get this solved again the majority

433
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,919
Speaker 11: of both chambers want to do it. But what the

434
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 11: Democrats are doing here is unprecedented. We've never seen appropriations

435
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 11: used in this fashion where you would fund almost all

436
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 11: the department. Nobody's mad at the Coastguard, nobody's mad at

437
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 11: the Secret Service, nobody's mad at FEMA, nobody's mad as

438
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 11: the tsa people that keep people with bombs from getting

439
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 11: on airplanes. Democrats have been willing to punish all of

440
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 11: those people simply because they want to open the borders

441
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 11: back up again. They don't want to fund the border patrol.

442
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 11: I mean, why would anybody be mad at the border patrol.

443
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 11: We're in the eighth month of no known illegal entry

444
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,919
Speaker 11: into the United States. God blessed the border patrol and

445
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 11: the President because they've gotten that problem solve faster than

446
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 11: anybody can imagine. And then frankly, I think the ice

447
00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 11: element has been pretty systematically smeared by the Democrats. Again,

448
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 11: you have to have internal enforcement of immigration. All about

449
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 11: forty percent of the people that are here illegally come

450
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 11: legally under a visa and then overstay it. So you

451
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,239
Speaker 11: have to have those folks and where where they had

452
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 11: the opportunity to work with law enforcement. We don't have problems.

453
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 11: Where we have sanctuary cities in democratic areas and sanctuary states,

454
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 11: that's where we have problems. So again, I think we'll

455
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 11: work through it, but people are recognized it's Democrats putting

456
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 11: the literally the safety of Americans at risk at a

457
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 11: time of international tension. Even though both the House and

458
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 11: the Senate under Republican leadership, is consistently passed full funding.

459
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 11: And even though House, excuse me, Senate Democrats actually accepted

460
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,640
Speaker 11: the deal that we gave them and then broke their word,

461
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 11: they're consistently breaking their word, coming to agreements in private

462
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 11: and then publicly deciding now we're not going to do that,

463
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 11: and if we have to put the the American people

464
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 11: a risk to make a point, we will. That's just

465
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 11: not only unpatriotic, it is dangerous, reckless, and irresponsible.

466
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: Mister Chairman, it sounds like the DHS funding plan without

467
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: the immigration enforcement can get done fairly quickly. The supplemental

468
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: here funding piece that will be done through budget reconciliation,

469
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: that'll take a little bit of time.

470
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 2: So I have two questions about that.

471
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,919
Speaker 1: One is how long will it take for this reconciliation

472
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 1: process to unspool? And number two, I know Republicans will

473
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:36,440
Speaker 1: put and restore immigration enforcement as part of reconciliation. We're

474
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 1: also hearing from the White House they're going to need

475
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: supplemental funding for the war effort and for national defense.

476
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 2: There may be other things.

477
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: Can you give us a preview about the timing here

478
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: of the reconciliation process and what you anticipate being in there,

479
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: And does the administration need two hundred billion dollars that's

480
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: the number that's been floated for national defense.

481
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 11: Well, let's break that into several parts. First of all,

482
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 11: you know it would it's hard to know if reconciliation

483
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,719
Speaker 11: will work. It's always a difficult process. As you know,

484
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 11: it's a partisan process. You have to have every single

485
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 11: one of your members in favor of it. The action

486
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 11: starts in the Senate. On this case, the Senate would

487
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 11: have to pass the reconciliation bill. I think Senator Graham

488
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 11: is committed to do that. It's really up to them

489
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 11: what else they want to put in it. I think

490
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 11: it's easier if it's narrow. No appropriators like reconciliation. Frankly,

491
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 11: it removes part of the executive brand from supervision, and

492
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 11: to be fair, that's not what the president wants to

493
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 11: do either. But he's got to fund the government, so

494
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 11: I got you know his situation. The second thing is

495
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 11: how long will it take. It could happen as quickly

496
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 11: as a couple of weeks, and there's a lot of

497
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 11: sentiment in the houses they don't want to fund the

498
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 11: government or DHS partly until they get that part. They're

499
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 11: not willing many members willing to do it. And we

500
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 11: could probably do it because all the Democrats would vote

501
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 11: for it and you'd get some Republicans, but it's a

502
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 11: high risk political event. The other problem in the Senate

503
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 11: version from a House standpoint is it doesn't just fund

504
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 11: everything but excuse me, but border patrol and ice. Its

505
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 11: specifically zero's out border patrol and ice. And there's a

506
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 11: lot of my colleagues that will never vote for that,

507
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 11: and I understand why. Who wants to be on record

508
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 11: we are not against border patrol. We are for border patrol,

509
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 11: we are not against ice. We think they're absolutely critical

510
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 11: of protecting the country. None of our members want to

511
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 11: put their fingerprints on something that literally says in the bill,

512
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 11: we're defunding you and taking you down to zero. That

513
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 11: language ought to be dropped by the Senate, in my opinion,

514
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 11: and we just should fund what they want to fund

515
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 11: and then get the others through reconciliation. So that's still

516
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 11: a point of this probably between the two chambers.

517
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: Interesting, So you're saying the Senate may yet need to

518
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: make some changes to this two track plan. That we

519
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: have going here, mister Cherman, we got about a minute left.

520
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about the rest of

521
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: the year. Obviously, a lot of what you could do

522
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 1: will be in these funding mechanisms. Is there any other legislation,

523
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: any other ideas floating around out there from the Republicans

524
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: that you think are critical to passage this year for

525
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: policy reasons, but maybe even for political reasons to show

526
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 1: the American people that the Republicans deserve to hold their

527
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: majority this November.

528
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 11: There are I mean there's some things. Let's take the

529
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 11: farm bill. Republicans represent ninety one percent of the arable

530
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 11: acres in the country, the farming community as part of

531
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 11: our backbone. We've gotten it out of committee. We need

532
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 11: to get that done before the end of the year.

533
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 11: There's some important work in cryptocurrency that's being done in

534
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 11: financial services that actually is genuinely bipartisan. They need to

535
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 11: work out the kinks and get that done. We need

536
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 11: to get all the appropriations bills for the next fiscal

537
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 11: year out of committee and start negotiations where the Democrats

538
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 11: wants that begin. And frankly, I personally think we ought

539
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 11: to look at some of the legislation Senator Langfort has

540
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 11: a bill. Senator Johnson has a bill on what do

541
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 11: you do and shut downs? So we don't let Democrats

542
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 11: ever again hold the country hostage in the way they

543
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 11: have late last year and this year.

544
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 1: Sounds like a robust agenda could be coming down from

545
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: the House Republicans. That voice you're hearing today Tom Cole

546
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: of Oklahoma, he's the chairman of the House Appropriations Committee,

547
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,959
Speaker 1: one of the most experienced and knowledgeable and important policymakers

548
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. Mister Chairman, thanks for your time

549
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 1: and good luck as you get back to.

550
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 2: Town next week.

551
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 11: Scott, thank you all right.

552
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 2: Thank you, sir.

553
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: Word from our friends at the International Fellowship of Christians

554
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 1: and Jews, and we have a story to bring you

555
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 1: from them. It's about a man named Phineas who has

556
00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: a child survived the Holocaust. Now, Phineas survived because Christians

557
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: hid him from the Nazis. They risk everything to save

558
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: his life. Today, Phineas is in his eighties. He can

559
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: no longer stand on his own, he can't even leave

560
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: his home to receive medical care. And when those sirens

561
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: are sounding and the missiles are falling in the Holy Land,

562
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 1: he doesn't have the time.

563
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 2: Or the strength to get to safety.

564
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: But once again Christians are helping save his life. Through

565
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, a mobile clinic

566
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 1: brings doctors in medicine right to Phineas's home, providing care

567
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 1: that he otherwise would not receive, especially during this wartime.

568
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: Christians saved my life during the Holocaust, Phineas says, and

569
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: now again they are helping me. As Israel's Holocaust Remembrance

570
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: Day approaches, remember these precious children of God by lifting

571
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,479
Speaker 1: them up in prayer. We ask for his protection, his

572
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: comfort in his peace. Stand with Israel in prayer by

573
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: visiting support. IFCJ dot org that is support. IFCJ dot org,

574
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 1: I'd be honored if you join me in doing that today.

575
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: A couple of more news stories to round out the hour.

576
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 2: When do we come back? It's Scott Jennings on Salem.

577
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 9: Stay with us, cutting the left with the best weapon

578
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 9: we have, common sense. This is the Scott Jennings Show.

579
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: It is Thursday, April the ninth. Welcome back here to

580
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: Scott Jennings Show on Salem. An update now to a

581
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: story that we've been following closely for months. The brutal

582
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: killing of Irena Zurutska, a young woman who came to

583
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 1: this country seeking safety and who was stabbed to death

584
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 1: on a train in Charlotte, North Carolina. We have covered

585
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 1: this case extensively here because the warning signs were everywhere.

586
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 1: A suspect with a long criminal history prior arrests, documented

587
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: mental health issues and was still out roaming the reads. Well,

588
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: we have a major development in this case. The man

589
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: accused in that killing, his name is de Carlos Brown, Junior,

590
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: has been ruled incompetent to stand a trial after a

591
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 1: psychiatric evaluation. Now that means this case is now effectively

592
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 1: on hold and a North Carolina judge will have to

593
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: decide what to do. Here here is Assistant Attorney General

594
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 1: Harmeet Dillon weighing in. She has made clear from the

595
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: federal government's perspective that this case is far from over.

596
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 2: I'll read it to you, folks.

597
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: Harmeat Dillon says, I had a great call this morning

598
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: with our US attorney in Charlotte. De Carlos Brown remains

599
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: in federal custody and so the parallel state proceedings are

600
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 1: in no way dispositive. There will be a federal competency

601
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: determination and prosecution track taking precedence. So no matter what

602
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: happens at the state level in North Carolina, it sounds

603
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 1: like the Feds, who also charged to Carlos Brown in

604
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: that killing, are going to keep their case alive. That's

605
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,799
Speaker 1: a tragic situation there. Someone who should have never never

606
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: been on the streets ended up murdering that poor woman.

607
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 1: Here's another story. We're following a developing story out of

608
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 1: the Bahamas. The husband of a woman who vanished at

609
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: sea was arrested by the Royal Bahamas Police Force as

610
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 1: serious questions are mounting about what really happened. Authorities say

611
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: Brian Hooker claimed his wife fell overboard in rough waters.

612
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,800
Speaker 1: The search for fifty five year old Lynette Hooker still

613
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: continues now the Coastguard has opened a criminal investigation. The

614
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 1: man's stepdaughter appeared on Fox and Friends, and she says

615
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 1: she suspects foul play.

616
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: Let's listen to her. In cut number thirty.

617
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 12: He says, three out of very four people arrested in

618
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,280
Speaker 12: fair Vaccini are leagal aliens. They're asking you to discontinue

619
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 12: Century City policies. Any comment along those lines, Governor, Governor,

620
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 12: any comment on the DHS request.

621
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 2: I think I think we I think we played the

622
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:14,879
Speaker 2: wrong clip there.

623
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: So obviously from a different story, but suffice to say,

624
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,680
Speaker 1: there are some fishy things going on in the Bahamas

625
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 1: there with this Hooker story. Hooker's attorney, for what it's worth,

626
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 1: denies that they had any wrongdoing. All right, I want

627
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 1: to talk to you again about the cruise. We are

628
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 1: going on a cruise in November. It's taking place right

629
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 1: after the election. We've got let's see, who do we have.

630
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 1: We have Larry O'Connor from town Hall. That's going to

631
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: be great. Do you ever read town Hall, by the way,

632
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 1: is terrific. You should really if you don't visit town

633
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: Hall as a news source, visit it and read our

634
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: friend Larry O'Connor, watch his podcast. He's he's going to

635
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: be on the ship. This is called the euro Dam

636
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,439
Speaker 1: by the way. So we've got that going on. We've

637
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: got my Gallagher, the legend here from Salem. He's going

638
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 1: to be there. I'm going to be there, and we're

639
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: going to cruise around in mid November. It's a week

640
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 1: and we're going to be in the Gulf of America.

641
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 1: We're celebrating America's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary. We're going

642
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: to talk about the issues of the day. I would

643
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: just point out this is going to be right after

644
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,400
Speaker 1: the election. Right after the election, we're going to have

645
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: a ton of stuff to discuss the election results, what happened,

646
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,240
Speaker 1: who won, who lost, who's in control, And I'm sure

647
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: we're going to be talking about what's coming up next,

648
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: which will be, of course, the run up in the

649
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: race to the twenty twenty eighth presidential election.

650
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 2: You can still book your cabin to be on this cruise.

651
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 2: By the way. The ship is great, but the destinations

652
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 2: are great.

653
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: We start, I guess in Fort Lauderdale and then we're

654
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: going to the Bahamas. We're going to Jamaica, We're going

655
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: to the Cayman Islands, We're going to Mexico, and then

656
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 1: we return to Fort Lauderdale. So it's a really good

657
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: it's like an eight deal.

658
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,240
Speaker 2: It's amazing. Here's how you sign up for the cruise.

00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: Mike Gallagher, Well, he'll have like a hustling ring.

664
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 2: Up at the pickleball deck.

665
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: He'll be up there taking your money in pickleball matches,

666
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 1: which sounds terrible, but playing pickleball with Mike Gallagher it

667
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,800
Speaker 1: could be fun. Even if he does take your money

668
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: in the gambling ring. He's planning to.

669

Speaker 1: on Salem.

675
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 2: Stay with us. If the leftists haven't had enough yet,

676
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 2: there's more.

677
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:50,839
Speaker 9: This is the Scott Jennings shot out.

678
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 1: All right, welcome back here on Thursday, April the ninth.

679
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 1: It's common sense for the American people. Scott Jennings is here.

680
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 1: We've got a great hour of radio coming up for you.

681
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: Don't miss a thing.

682
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 2: We'll do a quick check of the headlines right now.

683
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: And we're watching and waiting to see what happens when

684
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: Congress comes back to town next week. As it relates

685
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: to the Department of Homeland, Security funding fifty four days now,

686
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 1: DHS has technically been shut down.

687
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 2: This just end of the Scott Jennings Show.

688
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 1: Senator Barasso and Senator Lindsey Graham, senior members of the

689
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: House sorry of the Senate Republican Conference. They say they

690
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 1: are meeting with President Trump tomorrow at the White House

691
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 1: to discuss the next reconciliation bill.

692
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:34,240
Speaker 2: So there's still this two.

693
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: Track plan to fund the Department of Homeland Security and

694
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: to get the Immigration Enforcement funded as well. Part of

695
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 1: that is called budget reconciliation. It's not as easy as

696
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: it sounds. They made it sound easy last summer with

697
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 1: a big, beautiful bill, but it's not as easy as

698
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 1: it sounds. We'll see what happens with that meeting. Barasso

699
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: and Graham to the White House tomorrow. The Justice Department

700
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: is opening an investigation into the NFL in order to

701
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 1: hermann if the league has engaged in anti competitive behavior

702
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: that has harmed consumers.

703
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 2: Now.

704
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 1: Specifically, the claims here revolve around these television deals and

705
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 1: how the NFL licenses games out to multiple platforms at

706
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,800
Speaker 1: the same time. This is a major development the Justice

707
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 1: Department looking into the NFL and how you watch professional

708
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: football on TV. The US government has also been revoking

709
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: the legal permanent residence status of the relatives of some

710
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 1: key Iranian regime figures, including the niece and grand niece

711
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: of deceased Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Major General Case of

712
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,800
Speaker 1: Solomany and the daughter of former Secretary of the Supreme

713
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,919
Speaker 1: National Security Council of.

714
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 2: Iran, Ali Lera Johanni.

715
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: Joining me to discuss this is Congressman Buddy Carter of Georgia.

716
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,320
Speaker 2: He wrote this letter demanding the immediate removal.

717
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: Of doctor Fatima share Lara Johanni from her position at

718
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,760
Speaker 1: Emory University and the revocation of her Georgia medical license,

719
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: citing the woman's father who has publicly advocated violence against

720
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 1: Americans and against US allies. Buddy is hair Congressman Carter

721
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: tell us about this letter, When did you learn about this?

722
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 1: How long had you known that this person was living

723
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:23,320
Speaker 1: in Georgia.

724
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,240
Speaker 13: Well, we had only known it for a couple of weeks,

725
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,359
Speaker 13: and of course we needed to research it make sure

726
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,320
Speaker 13: that we had all our facts right, and we did.

727
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 13: And after we did that, we were quick to send

728
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 13: off the letter and to communicate with Emory University. And

729
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 13: I might add kudos to Emory because they did they

730
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 13: did respond, and they did the right thing, and that

731
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 13: was very important and imported to us in Georgia because

732
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,839
Speaker 13: Emory's got such a good reputation and they don't want

733
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 13: to be affiliated with anything like this, and they were

734
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,240
Speaker 13: quick to go ahead and take action on it after

735
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 13: they researched it themselves. The Composite Medical Board of Georgia

736
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 13: as well, they took action and then she self deported.

737
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 13: But you know, we don't need somebody like this in

738
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 13: our country, certainly not at one of the leading medical facilities,

739
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 13: not only in the state but in the country, at

740
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 13: Emory University. So I'm glad the way it turned out.

741
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 13: It should have never happened, to be quite honest with you.

742
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 13: But you know, sometimes things fall through the cracks like that.

743
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 2: Well that's my next question.

744
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:30,319
Speaker 1: I saw the reports of these relatives of some of

745
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 1: these Iranian regime figures, and they were living, you know,

746
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,800
Speaker 1: in some cases, quite lavish lifestyles here in the United States.

747
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,720
Speaker 2: Some of them had been here for several years.

748
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,240
Speaker 1: I think the average person would look at this and say,

749
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: how did we let them in in the first place?

750
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: You know, what kind of visa were they on what

751
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,719
Speaker 1: sort of process is there for letting in somebody like this?

752
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: Is there any vetting done on any of this at all? Now,

753
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 1: the Trump administration and thanks to you, taken action on

754
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,879
Speaker 1: some of this, but it does beg the question how

755
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 1: did this happen and are we going to be able

756
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 1: to stop things like this from happening in the future.

757
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 13: Well, obviously, if there was a vetting process, it wasn't

758
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 13: a very good one, and we know that and it

759
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 13: needs to be improved upon, and certainly that's something that

760
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 13: we need to study. I mean, you know, for me,

761
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 13: want shame on me, for me twice, or for me

762
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 13: want shame on you for me twice, shame on me.

763
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 13: If we let it happen again and continue to let

764
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 13: this happen, then then we're at fault here. That's why

765
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 13: we need to do a better job of the vetting process.

766
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 13: And I think it's important to make the point Scott

767
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 13: that you know, for four years in the Biden Harris administration,

768
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,879
Speaker 13: John also offered the Democrats supported open borders. We would

769
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 13: be naive to think that have those fifteen million people

770
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 13: who came across that border illegally during that time, that

771
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 13: there weren't some bad people that there weren't, some terrorists,

772
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 13: that there weren't some criminals, and there were. That's why

773
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,319
Speaker 13: we've got and that's why ICE is doing their job

774
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 13: right now. They're trying to get rid of the criminal

775
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 13: illegal immigrants in our country.

776
00:43:59,000 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 8: I hear people.

777
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,959
Speaker 13: Hollering all the time, Oh, what about the one who's

778
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 13: been here for twenty years working alongside us, And no,

779
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,720
Speaker 13: that's not who we're talking about right now. We will

780
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 13: at some point, and they did break the law and

781
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,319
Speaker 13: they need to suffer the consequences of that. But right

782
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 13: now we're concentrating on the illegal and the criminal illegal immigrants,

783
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 13: the ones who killed Lake and Riley, the ones who

784
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,960
Speaker 13: killed the beloved teacher in my hometown of Savannah, Georgia,

785
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:28,919
Speaker 13: doctor Linda Davis. And she was driving to work as

786
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 13: a special education school teacher and an illegal immigrant who

787
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 13: should have been deported two years ago crashed into her,

788
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 13: killing her instantly. And that's the kind of people that

789
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 13: we're looking for right now.

790
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 2: And this is the illegal immigration issue.

791
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,840
Speaker 1: Congressman, I'm certain you're hearing about it as you travel

792
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 1: the state of Georgia. You're also, of course running for

793
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 1: the United States Senate, and you have to cast some votes,

794
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 1: probably beginning next week, about immigration enforcement funding. This DHS

795
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:01,320
Speaker 1: shutdown continues, this two track plan, I guess, is still

796
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: moving forward. So the Senate has passed this bill to

797
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:10,799
Speaker 1: get DHS reopened, but without funding for immigration enforcement. In fact,

798
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: there's a line in what the Senate did that says

799
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 1: zero dollars for immigration enforcement. I assume that is not

800
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 1: something that you'd be comfortable voting for as it is

801
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 1: currently written. Are you looking for changes to the Senate

802
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: DHS bill before you, as a House Republican could say

803
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 1: yes to that?

804
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:31,960
Speaker 13: Absolutely, I'm looking for changes. I don't want to see

805
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 13: those zeros in there, and I'm not sure that I

806
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 13: can vote for that. I will tell you I think

807
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,320
Speaker 13: the tract that we're on is okay. As you mentioned

808
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 13: about reconciliation, that is not an easy process. Now, we

809
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 13: did make it look easy when we did it with

810
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,120
Speaker 13: the Working Family's Tax Cut AG, but I had to

811
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 13: tell you it's a laborious and very difficult process. You

812
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 13: got to have a budget resolution to begin with. You

813
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 13: got to offset any money that you're spending with cuts

814
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 13: in other areas. You've got to identify that you've got

815
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 13: to make sure your wordings correctly so that it passes

816
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 13: the bird bath, so that it doesn't get kicked out

817
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,840
Speaker 13: by the parliamentarian in the Senate. All of those things,

818
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,799
Speaker 13: and as I say, it's a very low borious process. Now,

819
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 13: we can do it, and we will do it if

820
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:24,800
Speaker 13: we need to. But you put it together with the

821
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 13: funding bill that zero's out certain departments like Ice. I'm

822
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 13: not sure that's going to find the House. I know

823
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 13: I'm going to have a lot of heartburn when that

824
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 13: comes out.

825
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,799
Speaker 1: Well, I think a lot of Republican voters would have

826
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:38,560
Speaker 1: a lot of heartburn.

827
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 2: Let me close with this. We've got about a minute

828
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 2: to go here. Congress.

829
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 1: When you're out traveling the state, you're talking to Republicans.

830
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,319
Speaker 1: How are they feeling right now? We're getting a lot

831
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,319
Speaker 1: of news that some of the conservative podcasters are mad

832
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 1: at President Trump. The media is trying to say, you know,

833
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 1: Republicans are fractured. Are you picking that up out on

834
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,879
Speaker 1: the campaign trail or is there still broad agreement that

835
00:46:57,960 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 1: Republicans trust the judgment of our president.

836
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,840
Speaker 13: No, I think they're still broad agreement. You know, obviously,

837
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,760
Speaker 13: people are upset about high gas prices, Obviously they're concerned

838
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:11,839
Speaker 13: about what's going on in Iran. But the president's concerned too.

839
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,760
Speaker 13: He doesn't want it forever war, he doesn't want boots

840
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 13: on the ground. But you have to applaud him for

841
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 13: what he's doing. He's addressing a situation that's been forty

842
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 13: seven years in the making, the leading state sponsor of terrorism.

843
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 13: Let's not forget that this regime has blood American blood

844
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 13: on their hands. We only have to look back as

845
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 13: far as the USS coal only have to look back

846
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 13: as far as October seventh in Israel. Yes, a thousand

847
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:40,360
Speaker 13: Israelites were killed, but forty six Americans were killed as well. Finally,

848
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 13: this president is addressing it. So what I see when

849
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 13: I'm on the campaign trail, I see a lot of

850
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 13: pride and a lot of people saying, finally we've got

851
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,439
Speaker 13: somebody who's going to do something about this.

852
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: Hey, Voyce, you're hearing today Congressman Buddy Carter of Georgia.

853
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,240
Speaker 2: He's in the House, he's running for the United States Senate.

854
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 1: Buddy, good luck, and I'm sure we'll have you back

855
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,759
Speaker 1: in the near future. And congrats on that letter regarding

856
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 1: that person over at Emory that that was good to

857
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:07,720
Speaker 1: constituent services.

858
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:08,880
Speaker 2: I think for the people of Georgia.

859
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:13,640
Speaker 13: Absolutely, Thank you Scott, always a pleasure all right.

860
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:15,399
Speaker 1: Good to see you, sir. A word from our friends

861
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,960
Speaker 1: at Relief Factor. You know, for two hundred and fifty years,

862
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,359
Speaker 1: Americans have believed in a powerful idea that we were

863
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:25,320
Speaker 1: meant to live free, free to work, free to move around,

864
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 1: free to enjoy life without being held back. But if

865
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 1: everyday aches and pains are slowing you down, it might

866
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:36,080
Speaker 1: be time for you to declare your independence from pain.

867
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 2: Now.

868
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: You know, we love Relief Factor in the Jennings household

869
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 1: and I think you will love it too. Relief Factor

870
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:45,800
Speaker 1: is a one hundred percent drug free, research based formula.

871
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 1: It helps your body fight off inflation, which is the

872
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: root cause of pain. It's not a quick fix, it's

873
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 1: not a temporary mass. It works from the inside out,

874
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: tackling pain at the source. It was created to get

875
00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 1: you back to living the life that you want to

876
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:04,280
Speaker 1: live on your terms, working, walking, exercising, doing the things

877
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 1: that you want to do. As we celebrate our American

878
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,600
Speaker 1: independence this year, I want you to take a stand

879
00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 1: for your own freedom. Declare your freedom of your own

880
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,919
Speaker 1: independence from pain. Try relief factor. The three week quick

883
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: it's Scott Jennings on Salem, Stay with us.

884
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:30,839
Speaker 9: Ready for more common sense here, CNN senior political commentator,

885
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 9: New York Times best selling author at America's favorite political

886
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,880
Speaker 9: pundit in Scott Jennings.

887
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 1: Thursday, April the ninth, Tracking the news on Iran. The

888
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,480
Speaker 1: ceasefire is still holding as far as we know, and

889
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 1: the peace talks are still on Saturday, as far as

890
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,200
Speaker 1: we know. Vice President Vance will lead the US delegation

891
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:54,920
Speaker 1: to Pakistan. That's where they're going to be talking to

892
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 1: the Iranians. By the way, this will be the highest

893
00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 1: level US official I guess to ever meet with the

894
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 1: Iranian regime, so high stakes in Pakistan. Vice President Vance

895
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 1: has made some remarks about all of this, and again,

896
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: don't lose sight of the number one objective. We don't

897
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 1: want Iran to have a nuclear weapon, period, full stop.

898
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 1: That's Donald Trump's position. It's always been his position. For

899
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,960
Speaker 1: people out there saying we had no idea Donald Trump

900
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 1: might attacker it. He's always said, I got a red line.

901
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 1: They will not cross it. Here's Vice President Vance and

902
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 1: cut number five.

903
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,359
Speaker 5: What the President has said is that we don't want

904
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 5: to Ran to have the capacity to build a nuclear weapon.

905
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 5: The President's also said that we don't want to Ran

906
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,399
Speaker 5: enriching towards a nuclear weapon, and we want to Ran

907
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,239
Speaker 5: to give up the nuclear fuel. Those are going to

908
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,839
Speaker 5: be our demands during the negotiation, and again we're going

909
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 5: to see what the Iranians are willing to give up

910
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,799
Speaker 5: if they make a good faith effort to actually give

911
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:51,880
Speaker 5: us the things that we need to have a successful

912
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 5: negotiation to the security of the American people.

913
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:55,879
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot on the other end.

914
00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 5: If they don't give us what we need, then I

915
00:50:58,000 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 5: think it's.

916
00:50:58,360 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 2: Going to be bad.

917
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:02,760
Speaker 5: But I'm optimistic that the Iranians are going to be smart,

918
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 5: that they're going to negotiate a.

919
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 2: Good faith all Right.

920
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 1: Vice President Vance showing some optimism as he prepares to

921
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: head to Pakistan. Let's hear from Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman today.

922
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 1: You know, still probably the most level headed Democrat I

923
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:21,800
Speaker 1: was going to say in Washington, but probably in America.

924
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 1: He is going after his own party again. They've been

925
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,920
Speaker 1: highly irresponsible in their rhetoric when it comes to Iran

926
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,720
Speaker 1: and invoking the twenty fifth Amendment against President Trump.

927
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 2: Listen to Fetterman here cut number two.

928
00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 14: If you make these kinds of let's let's go for

929
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 14: the twenty fifth Amendment and then you know, then we

930
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,560
Speaker 14: have we have a ceased fire, then it's.

931
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 8: Like taco taco taco.

932
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 14: I mean, I mean, you know, like you can't have

933
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:48,320
Speaker 14: it both ways.

934
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 2: I mean, so where we are, it's like strange to be.

935
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 14: Gleeful, gleeful that you know that we still have to

936
00:51:56,560 --> 00:52:00,120
Speaker 14: accomplish some things and make these kinds of statements. I mean,

937
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 14: you know, I'm old enough to remember we used to

938
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 14: root for our military and we would all agree that

939
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 14: Iran is the world's leading terrorism underwriter.

940
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:15,040
Speaker 1: Fetterman is the most common sense Democrat in America. And

941
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 1: for that, for being a common sense Democrat, what do

942
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,880
Speaker 1: you get your approval ratings in your home state among

943
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 1: these crazy radical democrats plummets. Republicans know he's common sense,

944
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 1: They appreciate him independence. I think like John Fetterman, but

945
00:52:30,160 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 1: these radicalized Democrats and his base numbers are terrible because

946
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 1: he says what's true.

947
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:38,879
Speaker 2: He says common sense things.

948
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 1: That's say you get treated the Democrat Party one other story,

949
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:43,640
Speaker 1: and I have to tell you this is one of

950
00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 1: those things that makes you ask what took so long?

951
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 1: The Trump administration is killing one of the most annoying,

952
00:52:53,000 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: intrusive government mandates ever forced on American drivers. You can

953
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 1: thank the Obama error regulators for shoving it down your

954
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 1: throat in the first place. What we're talking about here

955
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:12,400
Speaker 1: is the automatic start and stop feature on your car.

956
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:16,360
Speaker 1: So every time you stop it a light, your engine

957
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:19,480
Speaker 1: shuts off and it gives you a panic attack. Did

958
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,400
Speaker 1: my car just die? They've been putting this in cars

959
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: for years. Nobody ever asked for this, Nobody likes it,

960
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:30,239
Speaker 1: nobody wanted it, but these but Obama and all the

961
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:35,239
Speaker 1: Obama climate cult people. They thought they knew better, and

962
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 1: they put it in the cars. They thought they knew

963
00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 1: better than the mechanics. By the way, now here's the kicker.

964
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 1: The justification was always about, oh, this is going to

965
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:48,919
Speaker 1: help the environment, it'll reduce emissions. Here's what they never

966
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 1: told you. More wear and tear on your car, more

967
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 1: expensive batteries, more starter failures, and the driving experience. I mean,

968
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:01,279
Speaker 1: it would be as hard to measure this, but the

969
00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:06,640
Speaker 1: amount of anxiety foisted upon American drivers because of this

970
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 1: automatic start stop terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible, and in a

971
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 1: victory for the common sense agenda President Trump and his

972
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 1: administration under the leadership in this case of EPA administrator

973
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:26,080
Speaker 1: Lee Zelden, who continues to impress they are getting rid

974
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:28,800
Speaker 1: of the automatic start stop. Thank goodness. You know I

975
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:32,239
Speaker 1: don't have it on any of my cars. I have

976
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:34,280
Speaker 1: an older truck. I think I guess it came before

977
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 1: it went in. Every time I rent a car and

978
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: I have this, I just I want to drive it

979
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:44,400
Speaker 1: off into the nearest large body of water. Terrible, but

980
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,239
Speaker 1: again a victory for common sense. Donald Trump and Lee

981
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:51,960
Speaker 1: Zelden killing off the automatic start stop just I mean,

982
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,960
Speaker 1: one of those little nagging things, and here they are

983
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 1: taking care of it. I think the American people will

984
00:54:57,640 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 1: sincerely appreciate it. We're going to take a break when

985
00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:02,560
Speaker 1: we come come back. The Secretary of Interior is coming by.

986
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,360
Speaker 1: Doug Burgham is here, one of our favorites at the

987
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 1: Scott Shetting Show.

988
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:07,359
Speaker 2: Don't miss it. Right after this.

989
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:13,280
Speaker 9: Saving Western civilization, one busted leftist narrative at a time.

990
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:15,960
Speaker 9: It's the Scott Jenning Show.

991
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,400
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show here on Thursday, April to ninth.

992
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 1: You know, I've been spending some time in our nation's capital,

993
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 1: and if you have been here, I'm sure you can't help.

994
00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,920
Speaker 2: But notice everywhere you look, Washington, d C.

995
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:35,680
Speaker 1: Is being refreshed, restored, beautified, and finally made safe. It's

996
00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 1: happening exactly at the right time as preparations ramp up

997
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 1: for a major milestone, which is America's two hundred and

998
00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:47,279
Speaker 1: fiftieth anniversary this summer. Joining us to discuss this, Secretary

999
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 1: of Interior Doug Burgham to talk about those preparations and

1000
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,040
Speaker 1: how our nation's capital and the country is getting ready

1001
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:57,440
Speaker 1: to mark this historic moment. Secretary of Burgham, welcome back

1002
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 1: here to the Scott Jennings Show. I've been going around

1003
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 1: on DC and everywhere I look, I see Department of

1004
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 1: Interior signs, National Park Service signs. You guys are getting

1005
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:10,239
Speaker 1: the city in shape, and boy, it is noticeable on

1006
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 1: almost every corner. Congratulations on the effort and tell us

1007
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:13,399
Speaker 1: about it.

1008
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 8: Well, thank you, Scott. Great to be with you.

1009
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 15: And of course there's one person to think that's the cheerleader,

1010
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 15: the leader, the commander in chief himself. President Trump deeply invested,

1011
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 15: deeply interested, sign an executive order about making DC safe

1012
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 15: and beautiful that unleashed a number of both emergency authorities

1013
00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:37,520
Speaker 15: but also funding for us to go do what's get done.

1014
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:41,560
Speaker 15: And it's been incredible between the separate organization, the US

1015
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:45,399
Speaker 15: Park Police, which is the nation's oldest federal police force,

1016
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:48,720
Speaker 15: founded by George Washington seventeen ninety one. They've got special

1017
00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 15: authorities for the National Mall, the parkways that come in

1018
00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,640
Speaker 15: and out.

1019
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 8: Of Washington, d C.

1020
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:58,760
Speaker 15: The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island and the Golden

1021
00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 15: Gate Recreation areas. So these are the icons, the memorials

1022
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 15: in d C, the Statue, these are the icons of

1023
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 15: democracy that the world sees, these images, and the US

1024
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 15: Park Police is there to protect them and the tens

1025
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:15,959
Speaker 15: of millions of visitors that visit these places every year.

1026
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:19,600
Speaker 15: So a real serious security result. But like a lot

1027
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 15: of organizations, the US Park Police had been under the

1028
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:26,720
Speaker 15: previous administration, had been defunded. Under this sort of defund

1029
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:31,440
Speaker 15: the police approach, they had reduced about half their size

1030
00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 15: a typically you know, a year. These guys used to

1031
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 15: be at a force about six hundred. They were down

1032
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 15: to three hundred here in d C. We've doubled that

1033
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 15: size back again. A typical year for hiring was twenty

1034
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:46,880
Speaker 15: four officers. We've hired three hundred highly qualified, experienced officers

1035
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:50,320
Speaker 15: into the US park Police in the last six months,

1036
00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:54,600
Speaker 15: have them deployed working with the National Park Service, which

1037
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:55,720
Speaker 15: controls the National Mall.

1038
00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 8: That group has removed over eighty.

1039
00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:03,640
Speaker 15: Two homeless camps in a efficient, effective and humane way,

1040
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:07,520
Speaker 15: relocating these folks that generally that are dealing with both

1041
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 15: addiction and mental health issues dual diagnosis, but without a

1042
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 15: front page story from the Washington Post, if you can

1043
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:15,200
Speaker 15: believe that's Scott.

1044
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:16,200
Speaker 8: So we've done that.

1045
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 15: Over one thousand graffiti sites have been removed, and the

1046
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,120
Speaker 15: crime rate is dropped in DC to the lowest levels

1047
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:24,440
Speaker 15: that you've seen in some cases in one hundred years.

1048
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 15: And so that's on the safe side and on the

1049
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 15: beauty side.

1050
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 8: Happy to talk about that. But President Trump, there's.

1051
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:33,120
Speaker 15: Not a detail that doesn't whether it's reflecting pond in

1052
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,600
Speaker 15: front of the between the Lincoln and the Washington Memorial.

1053
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 8: He's calling me like, are you the pond guy?

1054
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:40,560
Speaker 15: I just had some in my office saying that that

1055
00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 15: pond is dirty.

1056
00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:43,200
Speaker 8: We got to get that thing drained this afternoon.

1057
00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 15: I mean, he is on top of it, and he

1058
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:48,320
Speaker 15: helped us get sure that we've got over one hundred

1059
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:52,040
Speaker 15: million dollars. There's nineteen fountains in d C, many that

1060
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 15: haven't worked for decades, that are all.

1061
00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 8: Being completely refurbished.

1062
00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:00,120
Speaker 15: They're going to be ready to go before before the

1063
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:02,720
Speaker 15: fourth of July to celebrate the US two fifty, including

1064
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 15: places like Columbus Circle, you know right outside of the

1065
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 15: Union Station between there and the Capital.

1066
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,360
Speaker 8: That place was just all it was was.

1067
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 15: Awful, NonStop protests and was just awful and you know,

1068
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:15,959
Speaker 15: homeless protests, whatever.

1069
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:17,640
Speaker 8: Now the place is going to be beautiful.

1070
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 15: President Trump got a vision that we should have the

1071
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 15: most beautiful capital in the world, the greatest country in

1072
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:25,480
Speaker 15: the world out of the most beautiful capital and the safest.

1073
00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 15: And progress is just visible, as you say, and you

1074
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:31,600
Speaker 15: can feel it.

1075
00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:32,280
Speaker 8: People feel.

1076
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 15: People are getting back to going back to restaurants, people

1077
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 15: are walking on the streets. This is it's exciting to

1078
00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 15: see and what a great President Trump's leadership here should

1079
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 15: be followed by every major metro blue mayor in the

1080
00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:49,120
Speaker 15: country that says they can't solve homelessness, and they can't,

1081
00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 15: you know, have clean and safe cities. I mean, he's

1082
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:53,720
Speaker 15: proving out the formula that it can be done, and

1083
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:54,880
Speaker 15: it starts with leadership.

1084
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:56,080
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1085
00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:57,920
Speaker 2: I've been coming in and out of Washington, d C.

1086
00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:00,680
Speaker 1: Now for almost thirty years, don't I don't remember a

1087
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:04,400
Speaker 1: time when walking around I felt safer with it. I

1088
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:07,160
Speaker 1: don't remember a time when, you know, you really weren't

1089
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 1: encountering a homeless encampment.

1090
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:10,680
Speaker 2: As you mentioned, you don't see that at all anymore.

1091
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:13,280
Speaker 1: The graffiti being cleaned up, but just sort of the

1092
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 1: city is being refreshed. You feel safer, and why shouldn't it.

1093
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it's our capital. Millions of people come here

1094
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:23,280
Speaker 1: from around the country and around the world, and on

1095
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:26,560
Speaker 1: our two hundred and fiftieth anniversary, you want the country

1096
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:29,920
Speaker 1: to put its best foot forward. And by making.

1097
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:30,400
Speaker 2: Washington, d C.

1098
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:34,040
Speaker 1: Safer and more beautiful, you're absolutely doing this. Just go

1099
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:35,880
Speaker 1: back to the park police issue for a minute. I

1100
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:37,680
Speaker 1: don't think a lot of people know this that the

1101
01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:41,960
Speaker 1: park Police has absolutely been part of this overall federal

1102
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:44,480
Speaker 1: intervention in making Washington d C.

1103
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 2: Safer.

1104
01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: You know, we think about the FBI, we think about

1105
01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 1: the cops and the traditional law enforcement agency, but these

1106
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 1: folks at the Park Police have been right in the

1107
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:54,840
Speaker 1: middle of it and it has worked. It has absolutely

1108
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:57,920
Speaker 1: worked in getting these violent criminals off the streets. And

1109
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,320
Speaker 1: that comes right under your leadership there at the Apartment

1110
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:00,840
Speaker 1: of Interior.

1111
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was.

1112
01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:07,640
Speaker 15: We've got five different law enforcement agencies across park Rangers,

1113
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:11,919
Speaker 15: game Wardens, Bureau of Indian Affairs, law enforcement, the US

1114
01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 15: Park Police. What a special group of people, you know,

1115
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 15: holding this responsibility. You know, if you were to go

1116
01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:22,440
Speaker 15: in the dark web and look at terrorists recruiting that

1117
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 15: happens around the world, the number one images that you

1118
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 15: see on those tariffs recruiting sites are either monuments on

1119
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:31,200
Speaker 15: the National Mall or the Statue of Liberty. I mean,

1120
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,240
Speaker 15: this is like literally going back to al Qaeda, which

1121
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 15: is like we're going to try to recruit someone.

1122
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:37,560
Speaker 8: These these are the points of attack.

1123
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:41,440
Speaker 15: US Park Police that over four million people visit the

1124
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,440
Speaker 15: Statue of Liberty every year. We've got to screen all

1125
01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:45,200
Speaker 15: those people before they get on a boat to go

1126
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:48,360
Speaker 15: out to the island. They screen them again if they're

1127
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,040
Speaker 15: going to go up in the statue. So this is

1128
01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 15: a very serious group of people in the park police

1129
01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 15: taking doing their job with great skill and care.

1130
01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 8: But here in d C.

1131
01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 15: The DC Metro has about four thousand people on their

1132
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:03,920
Speaker 15: police force.

1133
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:06,080
Speaker 8: We were down to three hundred. Now we're back up

1134
01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 8: to six hundred.

1135
01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,760
Speaker 15: As I said, over twenty to twenty five percent of

1136
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,680
Speaker 15: the arrests that have been made under the surge have

1137
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 15: been from this group that represents less than ten percent

1138
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:17,880
Speaker 15: of the people on the street. I mean in terms

1139
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:20,240
Speaker 15: of police for this is the way when I was governor,

1140
01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,000
Speaker 15: you thought about your highway patrol is North Dakota's finest,

1141
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,800
Speaker 15: the US park Police there the kings of the road here.

1142
01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 15: When I was doing a ride along last fall, I

1143
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 15: found out that they'd have the authorities taken away from

1144
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,240
Speaker 15: that they couldn't even do a pursuit. I was in

1145
01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,960
Speaker 15: the car we had in front of us going through

1146
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:40,400
Speaker 15: a you know, an area of neighborhood in DC known

1147
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,880
Speaker 15: for its crime, but with federal nexus where they had authority,

1148
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:46,200
Speaker 15: and we had a car had stolen plates because they

1149
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 15: have license plate readers, had tinted windows that's.

1150
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:49,520
Speaker 8: Against the law.

1151
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 15: Smell marijuana just reeking out of this vehicle, And I said, well, hey,

1152
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:56,160
Speaker 15: We're going to pull these guys over. And they said, well,

1153
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:57,960
Speaker 15: if we do, the DC judges will let them go.

1154
01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 15: And I said, well, you know, I'm a right let's

1155
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 15: pull them over anyway. They said, well, if we pull

1156
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,200
Speaker 15: them over, they can drive. They just drive away because

1157
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:07,000
Speaker 15: we don't have pursuit authority. I said, are you kidding me?

1158
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:10,320
Speaker 15: And they said, you know. I said, we need to

1159
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:12,040
Speaker 15: fix that, and they said, good luck. It'll take you

1160
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:14,600
Speaker 15: six months. They don't have to be pulled off the road.

1161
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 15: Two weeks of training. We'll have a bunch of lawyers

1162
01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:18,360
Speaker 15: tell us when we can chase, when we can't, when

1163
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:19,160
Speaker 15: we can pursue.

1164
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:21,480
Speaker 8: I said, check back, So then you know.

1165
01:03:21,560 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 15: Again with a support of President Trump, the next day,

1166
01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:29,680
Speaker 15: we put out a memo that said pursued authority. Reid stated,

1167
01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:32,160
Speaker 15: like less than twenty four hours. When I was on

1168
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,160
Speaker 15: the ride along, the email went out at five o'clock

1169
01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 15: and some of the officers thought they're getting punked. They're like,

1170
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,360
Speaker 15: this can't be possible. Are you sure this is a

1171
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 15: real thing? Mean, like, starting tonight, we can we can

1172
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,920
Speaker 15: actually go back and be do our law enforcement.

1173
01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:49,000
Speaker 8: Why we signed up? The answer was yes.

1174
01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,720
Speaker 15: So they go in the night shift at six six fifteen,

1175
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 15: they pull somebody over just like I described. They get

1176
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 15: out of the car, they start walking towards him as

1177
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,160
Speaker 15: they've been doing for years. Cars strives away because they

1178
01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:03,240
Speaker 15: thought there's no pursuit of Thorny. They jump back in.

1179
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:06,360
Speaker 15: They chase them. In a matter of minutes, you've got

1180
01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:08,960
Speaker 15: the guy. The guys that are fleeing looking over their shoulder,

1181
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:13,400
Speaker 15: they crash. The team walks up to them, arrests, arrests them.

1182
01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 15: You know, a bunch of priors that on these guys,

1183
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:19,320
Speaker 15: and they and the and the people that were fleeing

1184
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:21,840
Speaker 15: said to the law enforcement, you can't chase us.

1185
01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:23,680
Speaker 8: That's against the rules. You can't do that.

1186
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:28,360
Speaker 15: And I said to the team that was involved in

1187
01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 15: the first pursuit, I said, well, what did you say

1188
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:33,360
Speaker 15: to them? And one guy smiled and said I said,

1189
01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 15: I said, oh, you guys didn't get the email.

1190

01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 8: I'll call him tomorrow.

1235
01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:25,440
Speaker 15: So he called the officer the next day, and the

1236
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:28,600
Speaker 15: officer was an unknown number, and the officer didn't pick

1237
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:30,960
Speaker 15: it up because he thought, he you know, who's calling

1238
01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:32,080
Speaker 15: me from an unknown number?

1239
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 8: You know, listens to his voicemail.

1240
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 15: He's got a voicemail from President Trump, which he's now

1241
01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 15: shared with all of his with all his brothers in arms.

1242
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:42,680
Speaker 15: But you know that's our president, you know, supporting the

1243
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:45,880
Speaker 15: front lines of the law enforcement and he came the

1244
01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:49,480
Speaker 15: President came out, was with with myself and others on

1245
01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:51,800
Speaker 15: when we started the surge. Came out, met with hundreds

1246
01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:53,760
Speaker 15: of officers on the night that this thing was started.

1247
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:56,560
Speaker 15: But when they know that the president has their back,

1248
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:58,600
Speaker 15: you know they're going to get out there and do

1249
01:06:58,680 --> 01:06:59,000
Speaker 15: the job.

1250
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 8: We're giving them the pay, the resources, the equipment.

1251
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:04,440
Speaker 15: We've got more license plate readers, we've got more authorities

1252
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:05,200
Speaker 15: who've got more whatever.

1253
01:07:05,240 --> 01:07:05,440
Speaker 8: I mean.

1254
01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:08,240
Speaker 15: When you let law enforcement do their job, that's when

1255
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:09,680
Speaker 15: you see the crime rates go down.

1256
01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:10,960
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1257
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:13,720
Speaker 1: What I love about all of this story here, Secretary

1258
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:16,000
Speaker 1: of Burgham, is you have a hands on president, you're

1259
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:19,000
Speaker 1: a hands on Secretary of the Interior, and you're willing

1260
01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,640
Speaker 1: to make quick decisions that make an actual difference.

1261
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:24,240
Speaker 2: DC is going to be beautiful. D C is already

1262
01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:24,800
Speaker 2: safe again.

1263
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:27,640
Speaker 1: And as we do America two fifty, I think the

1264
01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:30,520
Speaker 1: people of America deserve no less. Secretary of the Interior,

1265
01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:32,560
Speaker 1: Doug Burgham, thanks for your time today. Look forward to

1266
01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:35,760
Speaker 1: seeing you soon, probably probably out of North Dakota when

1267
01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:37,200
Speaker 1: we do the Teddy Roosevelt Library.

1268
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:39,120
Speaker 2: I'll see you then. But thanks for coming by the

1269
01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:39,640
Speaker 2: show today.

1270
01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:43,959
Speaker 15: Absolutely that's going to be another fabulous Freedom two fifty event,

1271
01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:46,479
Speaker 15: the opening of the Theodore Roosevelt Library at the entrance

1272
01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:49,400
Speaker 15: to Theodre Roosevelt National Park. It's going to be fantastic.

1273
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:51,480
Speaker 15: We'll see you there, if not sooner, Scott, thank you.

1274
01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,560
Speaker 1: All right, Thanks Doug, appreciate your time today. Quick word

1275
01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,400
Speaker 1: from our friends at Chapter. If you or someone you

1276
01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 1: love is on medicare, you know it's very confusing.

1277
01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:01,120
Speaker 2: It's a mess.

1278
01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 1: You get the mailers and the robo calls, and somebody

1279
01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:07,440
Speaker 1: needed to do something about this, and they did. That's

1280
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 1: why I'm partnering with Chapter because they actually are cutting

1281
01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:12,720
Speaker 1: through all the noise. Now, I just put my parents

1282
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:15,680
Speaker 1: through their consultation. I'll give you the results. My mom,

1283
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:18,439
Speaker 1: because of their consultation, she's going to save six hundred

1284
01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:20,720
Speaker 1: bucks a year. My dad, they helped him find a

1285
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:24,360
Speaker 1: new primary care physician. They were like a true concierge service.

1286
01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:26,559
Speaker 1: After my dad moved he needed a doctor. They found

1287
01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 1: him the right doctor. Chapter advocates for you, not the

1288
01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:32,920
Speaker 1: insurance companies. They'll tell you if you're on the best plan,

1289
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:35,439
Speaker 1: or if they can get you a better plan and

1290
01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:39,720
Speaker 1: save you some money. It's very simple to sign up

1291
01:08:39,720 --> 01:08:42,360
Speaker 1: with chapter. All you have to do is dial pound

1292
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:45,920
Speaker 1: two fifty and say Medicare plan. You dial pound two

1293
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 1: fifty and say Medicare plan. You won't regret it. Chapter

1294
01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:50,840
Speaker 1: dealing with Medicare the way it should be dealt with.

1295
01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:52,639
Speaker 1: We'll wrap up the show when we come back. It's

1296
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: Scott Schennings on sale.

1297
01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:57,880
Speaker 9: Quelling and leftist arguments with truth and common sense. They

1298
01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:00,839
Speaker 9: hate that this does this Scott Nick's show.

1299
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:03,840
Speaker 2: Home stretch here on Thursday, April the ninth.

1300
01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:06,639
Speaker 1: Thanks again to Secretary Doug Bergham for coming by.

1301
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 2: Really one of my favorites.

1302
01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,639
Speaker 1: Just an inspired pick by President Trump for the cabinet.

1303
01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:12,800
Speaker 2: And it is true.

1304
01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:15,559
Speaker 1: If you come to Washington, you drive around here and

1305
01:09:15,640 --> 01:09:19,160
Speaker 1: you'll see these interior and park Service signs all over.

1306
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:20,760
Speaker 2: It's noticeable.

1307
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,519
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you if you've been thinking about, ah,

1308
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:24,600
Speaker 1: should I visit DC, it's a good time to do it.

1309
01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 2: They got it cleaned up for right now.

1310
01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,320
Speaker 1: We're going to wrap up the show today with a

1311
01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:33,080
Speaker 1: story of what happens when you campaign is one thing

1312
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:37,000
Speaker 1: and you turn out to be another. You remember Abigail

1313
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:41,400
Speaker 1: Spamberger's campaign for governor of Virginia. How many times were

1314
01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:46,760
Speaker 1: you told she was a moderate, she's a centrist. Since

1315
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:52,000
Speaker 1: she took office, it's been nothing but extreme left wing partisanship,

1316
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:58,160
Speaker 1: tax increases, this redistricting, ridiculous redistricting power grab, and all

1317
01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:01,559
Speaker 1: the lies that have been about it. Now she's trying

1318
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,160
Speaker 1: to laugh it off. Let's listen to the governor got

1319
01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:04,800
Speaker 1: twenty six.

1320
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 16: There was a pull up that had your numbers unfavorable.

1321
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:11,840
Speaker 16: And then your predecessor, Glenn was making a podcast run

1322
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:15,320
Speaker 16: earlier this week to taking a couple jobs at you.

1323
01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:17,839
Speaker 16: I guess overall on your numbers, what do you attribute

1324
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:19,080
Speaker 16: that to you? And then what would you say back

1325
01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:19,880
Speaker 16: to Glenn?

1326
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:23,320
Speaker 4: I would say, if everybody hated me, why is everybody

1327
01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,560
Speaker 4: putting my face on their mailers from the referendum?

1328
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 2: Would be question number one.

1329
01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,439
Speaker 1: Her poll numbers are down, by the way. I mean,

1330
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 1: she has squandered all this capital. She got like fifty

1331
01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:35,559
Speaker 1: seven percent of the vote. She's down in the mid

1332
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: forties on her job approval. Now, people don't like bait

1333
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:41,760
Speaker 1: and switch, so to say what she said is not

1334
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:44,360
Speaker 1: really the flex that she thinks it is. Anyway, all

1335
01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:48,080
Speaker 1: this is happening while migrant crime is going nuts in

1336
01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:50,960
Speaker 1: Fairfax County. This is one of the state's most populated

1337
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:54,639
Speaker 1: areas in northern Virginia, and it is a problem that's

1338
01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:59,520
Speaker 1: only increasing because the Spamburger administration is refusing to cooperate

1339
01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:04,639
Speaker 1: with ICE to remove violent illegal aliens from Virginia. Seventy

1340
01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:07,719
Speaker 1: five percent of the murders in Fairfax County this year

1341
01:11:08,360 --> 01:11:11,839
Speaker 1: have been committed by illegal aliens. Listen to how Governor

1342
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:15,639
Speaker 1: Spamberger responded when she was finally pressed on this by

1343
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:16,400
Speaker 1: someone in the media.

1344
01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:17,280
Speaker 2: Cut number thirty.

1345
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:20,920
Speaker 12: He says, three out of very four people arrested in

1346
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:22,800
Speaker 12: fairbex County are legal aliens.

1347
01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:24,000
Speaker 2: They're asking you to.

1348
01:11:23,960 --> 01:11:30,360
Speaker 12: Discontinue Century city policies. Any comment along those lines, Governor, Governor,

1349
01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:32,120
Speaker 12: any comment on the DHS request.

1350
01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:35,639
Speaker 1: Well, I said she was going to respond. It turns

1351
01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:37,880
Speaker 1: out she just walked right past it and walked away.

1352
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:41,240
Speaker 1: There is no response. I mean, the democratic response is, yeah,

1353
01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:44,879
Speaker 1: we care more about hurting the feelings of illegal aliens

1354
01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:47,720
Speaker 1: than we care about protecting the American citizens that they

1355
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:51,719
Speaker 1: are violently attacking and murdering and committing crimes against.

1356
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:54,040
Speaker 2: And here's one more thing going on in Virginia.

1357
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:57,120
Speaker 1: There's a new report in the Washington Free Beacon showing

1358
01:11:57,120 --> 01:12:01,599
Speaker 1: that span Berger is taking credit for seven point one

1359
01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:04,679
Speaker 1: billion dollars in business investment in the state.

1360
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:06,520
Speaker 2: Here is the problem.

1361
01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:11,080
Speaker 1: All of the investment on the governor's list was actually

1362
01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:16,400
Speaker 1: secured under Republican Governor Glenn Younkin. They put out this

1363
01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:22,520
Speaker 1: long list of job projects, every single one of them.

1364
01:12:22,840 --> 01:12:26,160
Speaker 1: It was Glenn Younkin, the previous governor that got it.

1365
01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:29,320
Speaker 1: So right, now, Spamburger, let's see, she got the lowest

1366
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:33,639
Speaker 1: approvals at this point in her gubernatorial tenure of any

1367
01:12:33,880 --> 01:12:38,479
Speaker 1: governor of Virginia in history. She's dodging questions about illegal

1368
01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:41,720
Speaker 1: aliens committing murders in her state. She's blaming it on

1369
01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:46,160
Speaker 1: everyone else. It's getting bad, politically bad. We'll see what happens.

1370
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:49,200
Speaker 1: By the way, in the redistricting referendum, I don't know

1371
01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:51,360
Speaker 1: what's gonna act. And I was thinking, well, they spend

1372
01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,599
Speaker 1: all this money and they've lied to the people over there.

1373
01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:57,479
Speaker 2: We'll see if it passes. I don't know. It's getting bad.

1374
01:12:57,520 --> 01:12:58,760
Speaker 2: Here's cutting number thirty one.

1375
01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:01,080
Speaker 1: Listen to this Spamburger trying to throw out the first

1376
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:21,760
Speaker 1: pitch at a baseball game. A lot of booing and

1377
01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:24,040
Speaker 1: if you can see it on the Salem News Channel.

1378
01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:28,599
Speaker 1: The pitch was terrible and that about summarizes it. Booed

1379
01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:32,080
Speaker 1: by the people and throwing it in the dirt. Virginians

1380
01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:35,920
Speaker 1: have noticed all of this. They have a real case

1381
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:40,640
Speaker 1: of buyer's remorse over in Virginia on Abigail Spamburger. Well,

1382
01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:42,759
Speaker 1: that's going to wrap up our show for the News today.

1383
01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 1: Before we go away, I did want to put in

1384
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:46,559
Speaker 1: another pitch for the cruise.

1385
01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:47,200
Speaker 11: The cruise.
