1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: The voice of free speech, the truth delivered, Common sense

2
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:09,399
Speaker 1: for the American people.

3
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Scott Jenning Show.

4
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: NASA is forced to postpone it's lunar mission. We have

5
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: a live report on that in just a few minutes.

6
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: Don Lemon cries to Jimmy Kimmel blue state policies are

7
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: making life miserable and causing people to move away. Christy

8
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,599
Speaker 1: Noams sending body cameras to federal officers in Minneapolis, and

9
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: new national polling paints a clear picture. Democrats are completely

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: out of step with the American people on illegal immigration.

11
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 2: It is Tuesday, February third.

12
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: This is the Scott Jennings Show here on Salem, Common

13
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: Sense for the American People, broadcasting live from Boston, Massachusetts today.

14
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 1: I guess, Jared, we're broadcasting from stolen land. Jared, you

15
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: should have called Elizabeth Warren for permission to broadcast here

16
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 1: from her reservation. What were you thinking? You didn't call Pocahontas.

17
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: After the show. By the way, Jared and I have

18
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: to drive out to Dartmouth in New Hampshire for a

19
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: debate tonight about the future of the Republican Party. My

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: sparring partner is Anna Navarro. Yes, that Anna Navarro, and

21
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: we'll be back on the air on CNN tomorrow night.

22
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: In New York City. Let us get to the news.

23
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: President Trump is meeting with President Gustavo Petro of Columbia today,

24
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: a constant thorn in his side. It's closed press, they say,

25
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: but we'll keep an eye on this meeting. Homeland Security

26
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: Secretary Christy Noam says body cameras have been sent to

27
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: Minneapolis for use by federal officers. ICE and Border Patrol

28
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: will now wear body cams. The President says, that's a

29
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: good idea. Here's cut ten at Christinom.

30
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 3: Just announced that you're deploying body cameras to Minneapolis.

31
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 4: What's your thinking behind this decision? And do you want

32
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,839
Speaker 4: to see this? Well, it wasn't my decision. I would

33
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 4: you know, I leave it to her.

34
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 3: They generally tend to.

35
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: Be good for law enforcement because people can't lie about

36
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: what's happening.

37
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 5: So it's generally speaking, I think eighty percent good for

38
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:23,519
Speaker 5: law enforcement.

39
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 2: But if he wants to do that, I'm okay with it.

40
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: This news comes as national polling emerges on how Americans

41
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 1: feel about the immigration debate, and it turns out that

42
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: Democrats have badly misread the electorate.

43
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 2: The latest Harvard Harris survey.

44
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: Is out and two thirds of Americans fully sixty seven

45
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: percent say that yes, yes, local police and jails should

46
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: hand illegal immigrants over to federal law enforcement. Of course,

47
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: the Tim Walls and Jacob Fry position, along with a

48
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: slew of other Blue state mayors and governors, is that

49
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: they will not cooperate. They will not hand illegal aliens

50
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,399
Speaker 1: over to the feds. Democrats, it seems, are badly out

51
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: of step with the American people. Next hour, we'll talk

52
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: to a polster, Brent Buchanan of Signal, who has even

53
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: more data, making it clear the Democrats do not speak

54
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: for the American people when it comes to coddling illegal

55
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: immigrants and attacking federal law enforcement. Speaking of Minneapolis, it

56
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: continues to be a lawless place, with random people setting

57
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: up roadblocks in the streets, stopping citizens who are driving through,

58
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,279
Speaker 1: and running their license plates against some sort of database

59
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: to determine whether the vehicle belongs to ICE. Take a

60
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: listen to this interaction at one of these roadblocks. Cut eleven.

61
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 3: Right, I'm going.

62
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 4: He said his license plates are ICE.

63
00:03:59,200 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 6: Guy.

64
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was just saying, it looks like in our system,

65
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: your plates came up as an ice plate.

66
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 4: That doesn't seem like it's the case.

67
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 7: I just want to come through.

68
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 2: And see what was up and talk to you, see

69
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: how you're doing.

70
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 8: Okay, I can't here, Yeah, yeah, totally, totally.

71
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 9: Yeah.

72
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: Not clear to me whether anyone has been arrested in

73
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: Minneapolis for setting up these illegal roadblocks, But there is

74
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: evidence that Democrats across the country are planning to replicate

75
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: these paramilitary tactics of these Minneapolis radicals. Here's Maine Senate

76
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: candidate Graham Plattner. This is the Bernie Sanders supporter with

77
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: the Nazi tattoo cut two, and I will say.

78
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 10: To the people of Minneapolis, we and Mane are watching

79
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 10: with awe and inspiration. But what the people of Minneapolis

80
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,559
Speaker 10: have been able to put together, the networks they have built,

81
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,679
Speaker 10: the organizational structure, the tactics, and the strategies they're using

82
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 10: to resist, We in Maine are looking at them and

83
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 10: using them as a blueprint because we're very convinced that

84
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 10: we are seeing the beginning of the exact same kind

85
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 10: of operation here.

86
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: There you have it, folks, Democrats around the country are

87
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: planning to block your roads, check your license plates, and

88
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: generally make your community miserable, all all so they can

89
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: keep illegal aliens in your town. Disgraced former CNN host

90
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: Don Lemon predictably showed up on Jimmy Kimmel's show last

91
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: night to cry about being arrested for illegally entering a

92
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 1: church a couple of weekends ago. Lemon says the FEDS

93
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: wanted to scare him, and they made him uncomfortable when

94
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: they arrested him.

95
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 2: Here's cut twelve.

96
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 10: Well, you're right about more than just some ways of resources.

97
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 4: They want that.

98
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 5: They want to embarrass you, They want to intimidate you.

99
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 10: They want to instill fear, and so that's why they

100
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 10: did it that way.

101
00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: Instill fear, you say, Don Lemon, here's a flashback to

102
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: what Don Lemon said the day that he and his

103
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: band of radical agitators invaded the Baptist church in Minneapolis.

104
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 2: Cut thirteen. You heard what some of the folks said

105
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: in there. You know that this is uh.

106
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 5: They shouldn't be there, and you know they shouldn't be

107
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 5: uncomfortable and this is our house and whatever.

108
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 2: That's what protesting is about, is to make people uncomfortable.

109
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 2: You may not like it.

110
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: For Don Lemon, it seems to me what is good

111
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: for the goose is good for the gander. Up on

112
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill, Republicans in the House, led by Speaker Mike Johnson,

113
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 1: have just broken the Democratic shutdown, voting two seventeen to

114
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: two fifteen moments ago to fund the government. Reopen the government,

115
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: but but questions remain over DHS funding long term, as

116
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: Democrats continue to push for defunding federal immigration enforcement. But

117
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: for today, another win for Magic Mike Johnson and the

118
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: House Republicans. Also in Washington, Conservatives are pushing for the

119
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: passage of the Save Act, which would, among other things,

120
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: require documentary proof of US citizenship before registering an individual

121
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: to vote in a federal election. Now there is overwhelming

122
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: support for ensuring that only citizens vote and for providing

123
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: voter ID when they do. This morning, on CNN, polling

124
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: director Harry Anton called it this way.

125
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 2: Here's cut nine.

126
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 8: Take a look here, favorite photo ID to vote. Eighty

127
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 8: five percent of white people favorite, eighty two percent of Latino,

128
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 8: seventy six percent of Black Americans favorite. So the bottom

129
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 8: line is this voter ID is not controversial in this country.

130
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 8: A photo ID to vote is not controversial in this country.

131
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 8: It is not controversial by party, and it is not

132
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 8: controversial by race. The vast majority of Americans agree with

133
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 8: Nicki Minaj that, in fact, you should have a photo

134
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 8: ID to be able to vote.

135
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: So something of none.

136
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: Fully eighty three percent of the American people support photo

137
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: ID before you can vote. And to reiterate, black voters

138
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: seventy six percent, White voters eighty five percent, Latino voters

139
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: eighty two percent. Now, Chuck Schumer, the Senate Democratic leader,

140
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: calls all of this Jim Crow two point oh. Now,

141
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: when you hear them bring out that old chestnut of

142
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 1: a talking point, you know they really have nothing. But

143
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: how can it be when Jim Crow two point zero

144
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: when Black voters themselves overwhelmingly support voter ID. Again, black

145
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: voters support showing ID seventy six percent. A white Democrat

146
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: from New York City, it seems to me, is telling

147
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: black voters they are too stupid to know what is

148
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 1: best for them, and that, ladies and gentlemen, is the

149
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 1: modern Democratic Party in a nutshell. This is the Scott

150
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 1: Shedding Show here on Salem. We're broadcasting live from the

151
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: Salem installation in Boston, Massachusetts today, right near Boston Harbor.

152
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: It is common sense for the American people. We do

153
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: have more news on aches and pains, and we've gone

154
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: right to the source here. Let me share a story

155
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: from a listener. His name is Rod. He lives in Texas.

156
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: He says, I am sixty four years old and I

157
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: used to build houses on the side. Years of hard

158
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: physical work left me with excruciating back pain that became unbearable.

159
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: I finally gave relief factor a try, and within four

160
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: days most of the pain subsided.

161
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 2: Over the next few weeks it continued to improve, and.

162
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: Rod said, and I quote, being pain free is indescribable.

163
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: We have seen improvements in the Jennings household. I spoke

164
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: to my father last night. He made his winter sojourn

165
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: to Florida. After all that driving, he said his back

166
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: was feeling good, no aches and pains. He's looking forward

167
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: to an active winter of golfing and doing the things

168
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: he likes to do. And he's been religiously using relief factor.

169
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: In fact, before he left on his trip, he said,

170
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: where is the relief factor?

171
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 2: I have to load it into the car.

172
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,720

184
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: The United States military and F thirty five to be exact,

185

Speaker 1: has shot down an Iranian drone as it approached the

186
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: USS Abraham Lincoln in the Arabian Sea. Don't want to

187
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: mess with those F thirty fives, I can tell you that.

188
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:19,319
Speaker 2: And we have a date.

189
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: The Clintons have agreed to be deposed by the House

190
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: Oversight Committee with Chairman Jamie Komer. He's a dog with

191
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: a bone, folks. They're going to do it February twenty

Speaker 1: sixth and twenty seventh. Hillary on day one and Bill

193
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: on day two. We're going to look forward to tracking that.

194
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: This is the Scott Jennings Show. We are in Boston.

195
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: I wanted to check in on how things are going

196
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: here in the Bay State, a blue state?

197
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: How are people living here in Massachusetts?

198
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: On the line to talk a little bit about what's

199
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: going on here is Jim Sturgis, the executive director of

200
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: the Pioneer Institute.

201
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 2: Jim, welcome to the show.

202
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 3: Glad to have you, in pleasure to be with you.

203
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 3: Welcome to Boston.

204
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 2: Thank you very much. Jim.

205
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: I was looking at a chart. The chart says domestic

206
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 1: net migration by state cumulative change April first, twenty twenty

207
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 1: to July first, twenty twenty five, and Massachusetts had lost

208
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty two thousand, one hundred and forty

209
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: five of its population in that five year period. What

210
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: is going on in Massachusetts from your perspective? Why are

211
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: people fleeing the Bay State?

212
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 3: Well, Scott, you know, for about thirty years we had

213
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 3: blue dog Democrats and Republicans working together to cut tax

214
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 3: A couple of dozen times we did a lot to

215
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 3: shed that label of Taxachusetts. And since really twenty eighteen,

216
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 3: especially twenty twenty two, we've done what you know, California,

217
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 3: New York, Illinois, and other Blue states have done, which

218
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 3: is to put in place either higher earner taxes or

219
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 3: wealth tax, and they're still talking about I mean, California

220
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 3: is thinking about another one. Rhode Island's going to thinking

221
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 3: about both a higher earners tax and a wealth tax.

222
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 3: And it is driving people away. I mean, for thirty

223
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 3: years we were one of the top states in terms

224
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 3: of economic growth. We're always ranked highly on competitiveness. We're

225
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 3: just shetting people. They're making a choice. I mean people.

226
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 3: States have made lots of policy changes over the last

227
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 3: five ten years, about twenty five of cut taxes. We're

228
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: one of the few that's increased our taxes dramatically, and

229
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 3: people are leaving young people, older people, people with companies, investors,

230
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 3: and it's really I mean, we're one of the only

231
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 3: four states in the cun we've lost jobs, private sext jobs.

232
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 3: The rest of the country has grown like crazy.

233
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: I was looking on your website at the Pioneer Institute, which,

234
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: by the way, Pioneer Institute dot org if you're interested

235
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: out there. You had a study that said net out

236
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: migration of wealth from Massachusetts nearly quinntupled from twenty twelve

237
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: to twenty twenty one money wealth just flowing out of Massachusetts.

238
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 1: Why is that and what are the consequences to the state.

239
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 3: Then, well, you know it's Look, it's it's simple math.

240
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 3: In real terms, the state budget has it's by about

241
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: thirty percent in fifteen years, and people's household income has

242
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 3: only grown thirteen percent. There are many people who say

243
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 3: that Massachusetts is not investible because of policies at the

244
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 3: City of Boston advances, but also the cost of doing

245
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 3: business here, Scott, I guess when I put into very

246
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 3: simple terms, look, North Carolina is not that different from

247
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 3: Massachusetts in terms of industry mix, the size of the state.

248
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 3: I mean, North Caroline's got the research Triangle's Charlotte's got finance,

249
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 3: it's got healthcare, It's got professional, scientific, technologal businesses and

250
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 3: jobs just like we do. They have grown their job

251
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 3: based in the past five years by two hundred and

252
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 3: fifty five thousand jobs. We've lost twenty five thousand jobs.

253
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 3: I mean, no real opportunity here because people not investing,

254
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 3: because the policies are not welcoming.

255
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 2: Jim, I've got about thirty seconds.

256
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: I did want to ask you a question about one

257
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: Democrat who is in office here I saw a story

258
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: the other day about the state auditor, Diana Dezoglio. She

259
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: looked like me, like she was trying to do something

260
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: right and she was fighting with some of these old

261
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: school Democrats in the legislature. Is Auditor Dezoglio someone that

262
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: I know you're a conservative think tank, But do you

263
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: think she's on the right track when it comes to

264
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: auditing and ferreting out waste, fraud and abuse in Massachusetts

265
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: state government?

266
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 3: Absolutely? Look, if you look at Poles ten years ago,

267
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 3: people in Massachusetts were still thinking that they could trust

268
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 3: the state government with their dollars. If you look at

269
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 3: any of the polling now with the state government saying

270
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 3: no way, we're not going to allow ourselves to get audited,

271
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 3: she really put her thumb on an issue. Now about

272
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 3: seventy five percent of the people don't trust their government

273
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 3: with their money. So she's definitely onto something.

274
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing Jim Sturgis a member of the

275
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,360

00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,960

00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: They want to talk about an idea that's worth revisiting,

317
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: and that is the pursuit of happiness. Our founders envisioned

318
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: the freedom to work hard, raise a family, and worship freely.

319
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: Here's what they did not mean big government programs and handouts.

320
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: Our friends at Americans for Prosperity believe the pursuit of

321
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 1: the American Dream is a core part of what makes

322
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 1: this country exceptional, and that's why I am proud to

323
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 1: partner with them. If you believe in the American Dream

324
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,960

Speaker 1: because the American Dream isn't a big government program.

332
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 2: It is our pursuit of happiness.

333
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: It's Scott Jennings on Salem and joining us live to

334
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: discuss this NASA rocket launch that has been delayed but

335
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: not permanently. Is the Press Secretary, an official spokeswoman for NASA.

336
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 1: Her name is Bethany Stevens, and she is at the

337
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral. Bethany, We're honored to

338
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: have you on the show. Welcome in.

339
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 9: Thank you so much for having me.

340
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 2: Scott, of course, thank you. I want to first just

341
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 2: ask you about the news.

342
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: What happened this morning that is causing the Artemis rocket

343
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 1: flight delay.

344
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 9: Absolutely, yesterday morning, we undertook the wet dress rehearsal, which

345
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 9: is a fueling test of our Space launch System rocket,

346
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 9: the SLS that's not at launch Pad thirty nine D

347
00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 9: here at Kennedy Space Center. We do these tests to

348
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 9: any launches to ensure that our vehicles are ready to

349
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 9: safely transport crew into space. And throughout that test, we

350
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 9: encountered a couple of challenges, which is precisely why we

351
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 9: conduct these tests, so that we can find them and

352
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 9: address them prior to the actual launch day.

353
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 3: As a result of.

354
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,959
Speaker 9: That, we're going to take this rocket back in and

355
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 9: we are going to address these issues, and we are

356
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 9: going to take the rocket back out to the pad

357
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 9: and then pursue lunch.

358
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: And it says here that you have future available launch

359
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: opportunities from March sixth through March ninth. You could do

360
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 1: it on March eleventh, then you also have additional dates

361
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: in April. Is it your anticipation that you'll try again

362
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: on March the sixth.

363
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 9: We're looking at March right now. We have not solidified

364
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 9: a specific date there, but we are optimistic that the

365
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 9: March window will be a go.

366
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 2: All right.

367
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: That's Bethany Stevens with NASA talking to us about the

368
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 1: Artemis launch. It has been delayed. We're looking at dates

369
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: in March and April. Bethany, when this rocket leaves Earth,

370
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 1: tell me, what are you hoping to accomplish with the mission?

371
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: It doesn't land on the moon, it goes around the moon.

372
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 1: But what is the purpose of this moonless lunar mission?

373
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 9: Absolutely so, this is potentially the farthest Americans or anyone

374
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 9: will have gone from Earth ever. So it's historic in

375
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 9: that regard. But this is the first step in terms

376
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 9: of crude missions as a part of the Artemis campaign

377
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 9: that will help us to eventually get American boots back

378
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 9: on the lunar surface, but also to establish a lunar presence.

379
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 9: So that means for the President's National Space Policy that

380
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 9: we're going to establish a lunar base and continue using

381
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 9: what we learned from that to go onwards to Mars

382
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 9: and even further than ever before.

383
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: So this will be the furthest away from Earth that

384
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: human beings have ever been. That's a cool fact, and

385
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 1: we haven't been to the Moon in over fifty three years.

386
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: The President, of course, would like to establish a Moon base.

387
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 1: As you pointed out, when you look at the old missions,

388
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: the old NASA missions to the Moon and all the

389
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: work that was done over the decades, how helpful is

390
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,439
Speaker 1: looking at that old tape, the old data, the old missions.

391
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 1: How helpful is all that in guiding how you plan

392
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 1: out this lunar launch and the idea of going back

393
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 1: to the Moon here in the next few years.

394
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 9: It's very helpful. You'll see that on Apollo eight, the

395
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 9: last time that we went around the Moon, it followed

396
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 9: a very similar flight path to what we're looking at

397
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 9: for Artemis two. So we're definitely able to gain insights

398
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 9: from those previous missions. But you'll also note that the

399
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 9: Mass Administrator, Jared Isaacman, has said that it's said that

400
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 9: we ever lost sight of the Moon to begin with. So,

401
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 9: as you mentioned, the President has indicated his desire to

402
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 9: go back to the Moon. Actually, under his first administration,

403
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 9: he established the Artemis program so that we could get

404
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 9: Americans back on the lunar surface, and now we're one

405
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 9: step closer to that with Artemis two and then onto

406
00:22:59,040 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 9: Artemis three.

407
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: So we haven't been to the Moon in fifty three years.

408
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 1: Is it the administrator and the President's anticipation that American

409
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: astronauts will step foot on the Moon before Donald Trump

410
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: leaves office?

411
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 9: Absolutely before twenty twenty eight, And we're working on that diligently,

412
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 9: even through our Artemis two preparations. We're working on the

413
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 9: human Landing system, which is what's going to enable us

414
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 9: to put those American boots back on the Moon. We're

415
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 9: working on the space suits, which you've all seen the

416
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 9: iconic shot of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin and all

417
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 9: the other people who have walked on the surface of

418
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 9: the Moon. We're looking to do that again, and we're

419
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 9: looking to do it before the President leaves office.

420
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing is Bethany Stevens. She is the

421
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: Press Secretary at official spokeswoman for NASA. You can follow

422
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: her by the way on x at NASA spokes spox

423
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: at NASA spokes So you mentioned a moment ago that

424
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: the President and Administrator Isaacman of NASA have a National

425
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: Space policy. Tell us about the holistic goals of the

426
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 1: National Space policy. I know we want to go to

427
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 1: the Moon, but overall what are we trying to accomplish

428
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:09,719
Speaker 1: in space?

429
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 2: How will it benefit the American people.

430
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 9: Absolutely, it's no secret that we have a huge geopolitical

431
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 9: rival in China.

432
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 5: It's also no.

433
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 9: Secret that China is making huge progress on their own

434
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 9: lunar missions. The Chinese National Space Agency CNSA has indicated

435
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 9: that they aim to get to the Moon before twenty thirty.

436
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 9: As we just spoke about, we are hoping to get

437
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 9: back to the Moon before twenty twenty eight is over.

438
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 9: That said, we're in the midst of a second space

439
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 9: race here. The first one was with the Soviet Union

440
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 9: back during the Cold War era, and now today we

441
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 9: are hoping to get back because there is a national

442
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 9: security interest in space and establishing the ultimate high ground.

443
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 9: The President is hoping to establish through this National Space Policy,

444
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 9: which is actually an executive order, about establishing space superiority,

445
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 9: making sure that we are for acting American dominance in

446
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 9: the ultimate high ground, so that will include life changing

447
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 9: science and crude missions and all kinds of things, including

448
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 9: a nuclear reactor on the Moon, and including establishing a

449
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 9: lunar base where we can continually send American astronauts up

450
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 9: to the Moon and hopefully establish a persistent lunar presence.

451
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: Do you anticipate that a lunar base would be fully

452
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 2: a military base or do you think it would be

453
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 2: part part commercial, part civilian. What is the vision of that.

454
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 9: This specific lunar base will be entirely civilian? Actually, under

455
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 9: President Trump, we established the Artemis Accords. We now have

456
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 9: over sixty nations that are partners with us in that

457
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 9: endeavor to keep space exploration peaceful and transparent. So the

458
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 9: lunar base that we're talking about over here at NASA

459
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 9: will be entirely civilian. However, it is worth noting that CNSA,

460
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 9: the Chinese National Space Agency, is both civil and mili

461
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 9: carry space, so they potentially are going with militaristic endeavors.

462
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: And this Artemis rocket, I want to ask you about

463
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:10,959
Speaker 1: the nature of the rocket.

464
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 2: Is it who built it?

465
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 1: This is not a SpaceX rocket, but I know NASA

466
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:21,239
Speaker 1: is working with companies like SpaceX on its endeavors. Kind

467
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,120
Speaker 1: of talk to us about this specific rocket that we're

468
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 1: using this year, how you partner with SpaceX, and how

469
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: sort of it all works together government with private companies

470
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: as we look to the future of space.

471
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 9: Absolutely now that has a huge coalition of commercial partnerships.

472
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 9: The specific rocket that we're using for this mission and

473
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 9: for Artemis three is the SLS, which is the space

474
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 9: launch system that is built by Boeing in conjunction with

475
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 9: other commercial partners and then the actual spacecraft that the

476
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,239
Speaker 9: crew will be inside, the Orion spacecraft, is built by

477
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 9: Lockheed Martin. There are other components of the mission. You

478
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,719
Speaker 9: mentioned Space ax who's building us a human landing system

479
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 9: for Artemis three. Blue Origin is also building a human

480
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,639
Speaker 9: landing system for a later Artemis mission. So there's so

481
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 9: many people that are involved in this. Axiom is building

482
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 9: the spacesuits, and there are many more that are helping

483
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 9: us to meet these critical goals.

484
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: Now, ultimately, when you send astronauts back to the Moon,

485
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: which you hope to do before Trump leaves office, how

486
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: do you choose them? I mean, there's obviously people in

487
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 1: the astronaut program, but for the Americans who are going

488
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: to set foot on the Moon for the first time

489
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 1: in over fifty years, how does the administrator, how does

490
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 1: the program go about choosing those special people who are

491
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,199
Speaker 1: gonna you know, that'll be that'll be one of the

492
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: biggest events of Donald Trump's entire administrator will be one

493
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: of the biggest events in decades for the world.

494
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 2: How do you pick those people?

495
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 9: Absolutely, it's very exciting. We pick these people based on

496
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 9: merit alone. We have an incredibly accomplished astronaut corps. They're

497
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 9: all based out of Johnson's Space Center in Houston, Texas,

498
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 9: and we have many people who are ex military. We

499
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 9: have accomplished medical professionals. We have people who have experience

500
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 9: that's derived from all different sectors, and that leads us

501
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 9: to an incredibly talented astronaut pool to choose from. We

502
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 9: have yet to establish or choose the Artemis three astronauts,

503
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 9: but there's not really a way that you can go

504
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 9: wrong when we have as much talent as we do

505
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 9: here at NASA. So it's definitely a big decision and

506
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 9: I'm excited to see who the agency ends up choosing.

507
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 9: That's a decision that will be made between the Astronaut

508
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 9: Office out of Houston and the Chief Astronaut, along with

509
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 9: the administrator and leadership at NAESSA, as well as obviously

510
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 9: the White House and the President.

511
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing Bethany Stevens. She is the official

512
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: spokesperson for NASA. She comes to US Live today from

513
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: Cape Canaveral at the Kennedy Space Center. The news of

514
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 1: the day is that NASA completed a dress rehearsal for

515
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: the Artemis two mission in the early morning hours on

516
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 1: February third, and because of some issues in that dress rehearsal,

517
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: the launch has been postponed, but there are dates in

518
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 1: March and April for this mission, which will fly a

519
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: rocket around the Moon and ultimately send humans as far

520
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: away from Earth as they have ever been. Bethany, thank

521
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 1: you so much for joining us on the Scott Jennings Show.

522
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: We're going to take a break and when we come back,

523
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: a little bit of immigration news. You don't want to

524
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: miss it. First, I have some information about debt debt.

525
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: If you're stressed about debt because you're in it, I

526
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 1: have something you need to know. According to the Federal

527
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: Reserve's latest survey, many banks are tightening their standards. That

528
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: means right now might be your best window to negotiate

529
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 1: settlements before lenders tighten up even further. And this organization

530
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: called Done with Debt is one of the best I've

531
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 1: ever seen at navigating debt relief, especially in a complicated

532
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: regulatory environment. Last year they enrolled over one hundred and

533
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,479
Speaker 1: two million dollars in debt for our listeners and others.

534
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 2: Done with debt.

535
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: They are experienced at knowing how to negotiate and when

536
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: they will get you the biggest reduction possible. Done with

537
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: debt helps you through the debt relief process so that

538
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: you keep more of your paycheck every month. Imagine waking

539
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: up without that weight on your shoulders and doing it

540
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: without taking out another loan or having to file for bankruptcy.

541
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: That would be a relief, would it not? Do not

542
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: wait for the lenders to tighten up their policies. That's

543
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: the danger to you. You got to move fast and

591
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: to close out the hour by the way talking to

592
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 1: you about propaganda. The fight over immigration in the United

593
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: States has, as much as anything, devolved into an information war.

594
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: And coming up next hour, by the way, my friend

595
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: Brent Buchanan from Signal Polling has some insightful new polling

596
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: numbers on the American electorate. I think Democrats, by the way,

597
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: are going to find they are way out over their

598
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: skis when it comes to this coddling the illegal immigration

599
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: and this demand to defund ice. But we'll talk about

600
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 1: that in a few minutes. This propaganda war, though, has

601
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: manifested itself in story after story that's told to you

602
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: to confuse you, to lie to you, to cause you

603
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: to believe things that just aren't true. The five year

604
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: old kid in Minneapolis, remember that the details that you

605
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 1: got initially, that's not what happened at all. Renee Good,

606
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,399
Speaker 1: remember what you were told initially, random passerby accidentally caught

607
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: up in traffic, That's not what happened. Remember that you

608
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: were told ice rated a daycare. Didn't happen. They were

609
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: chasing someone who ran into a daycare. Here's a new

610
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: one today out of Los Angeles that I thought I

611
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:51,800
Speaker 1: would share. KTLA Television in Los Angeles reported the news

612
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: this way. A San Fernando Valley community is outraged and

613
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: devastated after federal immigration agents forced their way onto the

614
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 1: grounds of a church during a food giveaway and arrested

615
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: a man who church officials say helps with children's ministries. Now,

616
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:14,359
Speaker 1: reading that, you might think I don't like that, but

617
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: that's not what happened. Here's the real story, straight from

618
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 1: the Border Patrol. They weren't targeting a church. They were

619
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: targeting and illegal alien named Carlos Chavez Guzman, a Mexican

620
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 1: illegal alien. I guess I can say that they're telling me,

621
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 1: I can't say that in some venues. I'm gonna say

622
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,240
Speaker 1: it illegal alien. He was deported from the United States

623
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen. He illegally re entered the country, a felony. Agents.

624
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 1: Border Patrol agents approached this man legitimate thing to do,

625
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 1: and of course he ran away, causing a footchase. He

626
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 1: was tracked down and arrested by agents. Lots of crimes here,

627
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 1: entering in the first place, illegal re entering, felony, running

628
00:35:54,600 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 1: from cops, felony. But the propaganda from KTLA makes you

629
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: think that the Border Patrol was rating against their will.

630
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 2: Some church.

631
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: We are fully committed to telling you the truth on

632
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 1: this show, but understand much of what you're being told

633
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 1: about what's happening with immigration is propaganda. They want you emotional,

634
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 1: and they want you stupid, and I want you to

635
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 1: have the facts and I want you to have clear eyes.

636
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 2: That's what you get.

637
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,280
Speaker 1: More coming up in the next hour, it's common Sense

638
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:27,880
Speaker 1: for the American People.

639
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 2: We're on Salem. I'm Scott Jennings.

640
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: Stay with us, the voice of free speech, the truth delivered, common.

641
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 4: Sense for the American people.

642
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Scott Jenning Show.

643
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,720
Speaker 2: It is Tuesday, February third.

644
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: We're broadcasting live from Salem in Boston, Massachusetts. This is

645
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,840
Speaker 1: the Scott Jennings Show, Common Sense for the American People.

646
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: At the bottom of the hour, thirty three minutes passed

647
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 1: brand new polling hot off the presses. Brent Buchanan from

648
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: Signal Polling is here and I'm just going to preview

649
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 1: it for you. Democrats are way way way out over

650
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 1: their skis way off message when it comes to dealing

651
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: with the illegal immigration crisis in America.

652
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 2: You don't want to miss this conversation.

653
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 1: We do have some breaking news House Republicans have ended

654
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: the short partial Democrat shutdown, voting two hundred and seventeen

655
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 1: to two hundred and fifteen to fund the government. Just

656
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: a few moments ago, Magic Mike Johnson delivers again. NASA

657
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: has scrubbed its Artemis two space launch today during address rehearsal. Overnight,

658
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 1: some hydrogen was leaking, so back to the garage for

659
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. They'll try again in March or April.

660
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: The administration remains committed to putting a man on the

661
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:58,720
Speaker 1: moon before Trump leaves office. President Trump is touting talks

662
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: with Iran the Friday, dispatching his envoy Steve Whitkoff and

663
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 1: his son in law Jared Kushner to meet with a regime.

664
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,800
Speaker 1: The New York Times says the Iranian regime is willing

665
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 1: to do away, perhaps with its nuclear program, although I

666
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,840
Speaker 1: thought we did away with it for them last summer.

667
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: Iran is demanding changes to the venue in format for

668
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 1: these negotiations. We'll see if the talks actually proceed. And

669
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: today there has been a military skirmish. The United States

670
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: shot down an Iranian drone that had approached the USS.

671
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 1: Abraham Lincoln White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt confirming the details.

672
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,800
Speaker 2: Here is Caroline today.

673
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 11: I did speak with folks over at the Pentagon this

674
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:51,359
Speaker 11: morning who said that SEDCOM acted both appropriately and necessarily

675
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 11: to protect our US personnel and equipment in the region.

676
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 11: So SEDCOM did make the decision to shoot down that

677
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 11: Iranian drone. It was on de manned, it was acting

678
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:05,880
Speaker 11: aggressively towards our USS Lincoln, which we know that aircraft

679
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 11: carrier is in the region, at the direction of President Trump.

680
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,720
Speaker 11: As for the President, he remains committed to always pursuing

681
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 11: diplomacy first. But in order for diplomacy to work, of course,

682
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 11: it takes two to tango, you need a willing partner

683
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,240
Speaker 11: to engage, and so that's something the President and Special

684
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 11: Envoy Witcoff are exploring and discussing right now. A Special

685
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 11: Envoy Witcoff is set to have conversations with the Iranians

686
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,879
Speaker 11: later this week. Those are still scheduled as of right now.

687
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 11: But of course the President has always a range of

688
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 11: options on the table, and that includes the use of

689
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 11: military force. The Iranians know that better than anyone. Just

690
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 11: look no further than the highly successful Operation Midnight Hammer,

691
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,359
Speaker 11: which took not just Iron but the entire world by

692
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 11: surprise and completely obliterated their nuclear capabilities earlier last year.

693
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 1: With me to discuss all of this is Benham Ben Talablue,

694
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: the Iran Program Senior Director and Senior Fellow at the

695
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 1: Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Benham, Welcome in to the

696
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: Scott Jennings Show. I'd like to get your reaction to

697
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,920
Speaker 1: all of this, the possible talks, the shooting down of

698
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: the drone. What you heard Caroline Levitt say, where do

699
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 1: we stand with Iran right now?

700
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 2: In your opinion?

701
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 12: Well, it's a pleasure to be with you, Scott. Listen,

702
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 12: we're either on the precipice of a bad deal or

703
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 12: a military conflict. But to what end is the million

704
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,880
Speaker 12: dollar question? And I think President Trump has everybody right

705
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 12: where he wants them, with both allies and adversaries alike

706
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 12: trying to guess and figure out and hedge as it

707
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 12: comes to his next move. In twenty twenty five, for example,

708
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:50,359
Speaker 12: we saw President Trump literally go through every option on

709
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 12: the table as it comes to Iran. The reason now

710
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 12: we're talking about these Lama republic In twenty twenty six, however,

711
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,720
Speaker 12: is that there was massive nationwide protests and these Lamach

712
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 12: Republic brutally brutally repressed those protests, and the president, not

713
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 12: talking about nuclear and not talking about missile, not talking

714
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 12: about terrorism, not talking about maritime, drew not one, but

715
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 12: multiple red lines in the sand there and said that

716
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 12: if the regime continued to crack down, that he would

717
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,360
Speaker 12: hold those who cracked down responsible, that the US was

718
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 12: locked and loaded, and that more recently help was on

719
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 12: its way. Now, in my view, there is no nuclear

720
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,799
Speaker 12: deal off ramp that the US Special Envoy or the

721
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 12: president's son in law at this point in time can

722
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 12: negotiate with a regime like the Islamic Republic. Lest we forget,

723
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 12: this is a regime that has a bounty on the

724
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 12: president's head, has a fatwah against him, against his property,

725
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 12: and even against the female members of his family. Always

726
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 12: important to remember that here and then moving forward, of course,

727
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 12: we can't forget that Donald Trump really broke the taboobs laughter,

728
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 12: the sacred cow that used to govern Washington, d C.

729
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 12: For decades that said you can't even provide political or

730
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 12: moral support for protesters. He showed that was absolutely possible

731
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 12: in term one. Now in term two, when the regime

732
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 12: is trying to call his bluff to see if he

733
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 12: would do more than provide moral or political support for protesters.

734
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 12: You have the Abraham Lincoln in the region, and the

735
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 12: Runians right now are trying to buzz or have tried

736
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 12: to buzz that with a Shahad one thirty nine drone.

737
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 12: It's a modified drone. It's an unmanned combat aerial vehicle.

738
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 12: It can do surveillance and reconnaissance, but more importantly, it

739
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 12: can carry guided munitions. And I think it was precisely

740
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 12: prudent for the USS Abraham Lincoln to launch that F

741
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 12: thirty five and take out that drone so that there's

742
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 12: a strong signal of resolve. So whatever direction the president

743
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,239
Speaker 12: goes in that he can take the best hand with him.

744
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 1: In your opinion, how close is the Iranian regime to

745
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,840
Speaker 1: falling and can it fall without a push from the

746
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: United States or do you believe that only military intervention

747
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,280
Speaker 1: will ultimately lead to regime change in Tehran?

748
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 12: You know, this is a regime that is weak, but

749
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 12: it is still very lethal, and that's what we have

750
00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 12: to remember. This is a regime that is willing and

751
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 12: I'm nfortunately just proved that is shooting its way out

752
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 12: of the crisis. Under the cover of an Internet blackout,

753
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 12: thirty six to forty three thousand Iranians have been killed

754
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 12: in a record matter of days, shattering both records for

755
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:16,240
Speaker 12: killings and executions inside the Islamic Republic in contemporary Runian

756
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 12: history and even comparable to some grotesque twentieth century massacres

757
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 12: in recorded history. In that case, an unarmed pro American,

758
00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 12: pro Western population in the heartland of the Muslim Middle

759
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 12: East needs support. It is highly unlikely that this unarmed

760
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 12: population is going to be able to overcome and overwhelm

761
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 12: the regime and its layered security forces. And here I believe,

762
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 12: as Henry kiss injury used to stay many years ago,

763
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 12: and as it's abscribed to him, that foreign policy is

764
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 12: not missionary work. There's a huge difference between foreign imposed

765
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,839
Speaker 12: regime change, which is something that Uncle Sam unfortunately has

766
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 12: done in this region and hasn't had great successes with,

767
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:00,799
Speaker 12: versus foreign supported regime change. You know, if we could

768
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,319
Speaker 12: flip the script on the iatolas, I think that would

769
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,760
Speaker 12: be a huge strategic and political win for the president,

770
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:07,280
Speaker 12: not just a moral one.

771
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:10,840
Speaker 2: We have about a minute to go. I'm just going

772
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 2: to ask you point blank.

773
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,840
Speaker 1: The President has broad peace plans for the Middle East,

774
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: and he has done more than virtually any other president

775
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: in my lifetime to get there. But in order to

776
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 1: achieve his full vision, does he need Iran to fall?

777
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:28,959
Speaker 1: Does he need to get rid of the Iapolla or

778
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 1: can he still achieve peace if somehow this regime survives.

779
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,359
Speaker 12: I think at best the President would be holding his

780
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 12: vision for peace together and more importantly prosperity together with

781
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 12: spit and gum and glue, and it would not out,

782
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 12: and it would not have a political legacy beyond his administration.

783
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 12: There is no way out but through here. Uncle Sam

784
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 12: needs to help flip the script to empower the street

785
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,880
Speaker 12: in Iran, which is pro American and pro Israeli, against

786
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 12: the state which is the most anti American and the

787
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 12: most anti Israeli in that part of the world. The peace,

788
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,600
Speaker 12: the path of prosperity, the path to stability, only can

789
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,400
Speaker 12: happen when you take out Tetron's theocrats. Those American partners

790
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,360
Speaker 12: in the region who are currently hedging, which believe that

791
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,720
Speaker 12: statist equal stability, needs to only look to the past

792
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,360
Speaker 12: forty seven years to realize that by locking in the

793
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 12: Islamic Republic. They had only guaranteed further instability.

794
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:26,759
Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing Benhem ben Taliblue, the Iran Program

795

Speaker 1: back in with you. The facts are protesters are being slaughtered.

799
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: The Iranian regime continues to chant death to America. They

800
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:52,360
Speaker 1: are sending drones to buzz the USS Abraham Lincoln, and

801
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 1: we're planning to talk. I'm not holding my breath if

802
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 1: they'll have anything useful to say, but we'll check with

Speaker 1: Show here on Salem. Common Sense for the American people.

805
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,960
Speaker 1: I have some common sense for you from a man

806
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: named Keith in Washington. As you know, we've been canvassing

807
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:17,360
Speaker 1: the customers, satisfied customers of relief factor and common sense.

808
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 1: Keith tells us this that he was an extremely active guy,

809
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: former college athlete, martial arts instructor, teaching multiple classes a day,

810
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 1: but over time his body was wearing down and he

811
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:34,799
Speaker 1: tried relief factor and all of a sudden, All of

812
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 1: a sudden, his knee pain nearly disappeared, his neck pain

813
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: drops significantly. He was able to keep training, and he

814
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:48,760
Speaker 1: even earned his black belt again. Letter after letter, after

815
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 1: anecdote after story comes in and they all say the

816
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:53,399
Speaker 1: same thing.

817
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:54,920
Speaker 2: I had pain.

818
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:59,960

Speaker 1: This is Scott Jennings on Salem More after this.

826
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,720
Speaker 5: Use comments and the stories. In fact, the mainstream media

827
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 5: refuses to discuss. And it's the Scott Jennings Shop.

828
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: It is Tuesday, February third, Scott Jennings broadcasting line from Boston,

829
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,399
Speaker 1: Massachusetts today after the show, driving out to Dartmouth having

830
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: a big debate against Anna Navarro on campus tonight, debating

831
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 1: the future of the Republican Party out there. We look

832
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:47,720
Speaker 1: forward to that drive, Jared. We're gonna drive through the countryside.

833
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 1: We'll see the site, see the snow. I do want

834
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 1: to talk to you, by the way, about some politics.

835
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 1: This segment a Senate race is going on in Texas.

836
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 1: Someone is challenging the smartest person in national democratic politics.

837
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,920
Speaker 1: You know who that is, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. She's their

838
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: highest IQ Democrat. But the same political ecosystem that gave

839
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 1: us Beto O'Rourke and then Pete Bootage has now rolled

840
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 1: out version three point zero of this kind of candidate.

841
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:22,440
Speaker 1: His name is James Tallarico. Now, Tallarico is different, but

842
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 1: not in a good way. He is not your garden

843
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 1: variety radical progressive. He actually tries to put a religious

844
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 1: spin on his radical liberal progressive politics. He is not

845
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: just coming to take your guns, to trans your kids,

846
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 1: and to reorder American society from top to bottom. He

847
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: is going to do it while telling you that God

848
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 1: is totally cool with it. That's the pitch, anyway. And

849
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but that's not bold. It's not brave, and

850
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:59,720
Speaker 1: it's not compassionate. In fact, I think it's deeply sick stuff.

851
00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:02,440
Speaker 1: Don't take my word for it, though. Let's hear it

852
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 1: straight from his mouth. Let's play tall Rico Cut four.

853
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 7: The first two lines of the Bible. The first two

854
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:16,800
Speaker 7: lines in Genesis used two different Hebrew words to describe God.

855
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:23,760
Speaker 7: One is the masculine Hebrew noun for divinity. The second

856
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 7: is the feminine Hebrew noun for spirit. God is both

857
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:37,200
Speaker 7: masculine and feminine, and everything in between. God is non binary.

858
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 2: God is non binary.

859
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 1: Tall Rico says, I don't think you need to be

860
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,879
Speaker 1: a master theologian or have gone to seminary or even

861
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 1: cracked open a Bible lately to understand how off base

862
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,719
Speaker 1: this man is. But here's the thing he nor does

863
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,839
Speaker 1: the progressive left actually care, because they'll clap for this,

864
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 1: They'll NodD along, they'll celebrate this use of religion to

865
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 1: justify mutilation of children. They use religion as a tool

866
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:16,040
Speaker 1: to advance their ideology. Faith isn't sacred to them. It

867
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 1: is instrumental, and it doesn't stop with twisting theology to

868
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: justify radical social policy. It also shows up in the

869
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 1: way Tallarico talks about other Christians, Christians who simply don't

870
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 1: share his politics. Remember he serves in the Texas State

871
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: House alongside people who are in fact openly Christian.

872
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 2: Listen to how he talks about them. Here's cut three.

873
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 11: And that odlies to Muslims and Hindus.

874
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:41,799
Speaker 12: I have.

875
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 2: This is the you know, they can learn a lot.

876
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 13: I have Jesus, I have met, I have met so

877
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:53,160
Speaker 13: many Hindus, Buddhists, seek Jews, Muslims, atheist agnostics who are

878
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,799
Speaker 13: more christ Like than some of the Christians I serve

879
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 13: with in the text of legislature.

880
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:03,280
Speaker 1: Now, look no offense to anyone who isn't a practicing Christian.

881
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 1: You are free Americans. You're entitled to your beliefs. But

882
00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 1: I got to say, to be Christ's like it usually

883
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:10,760
Speaker 1: helps to be a Christian.

884
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,720
Speaker 2: It's right there in the name, after all.

885
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,239
Speaker 1: And it is especially wild for tall Rico to argue

886
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 1: that an atheist, someone who explicitly rejects the existence of

887
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:23,680
Speaker 1: God and the divinity of Christ, is somehow more christ

888
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:26,120
Speaker 1: Like than people who actually believe in Christ.

889
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 2: That's not theology. That's political gas lighting.

890
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 1: Nothing matters to the left except gaslighting you into accepting

891
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 1: their agenda. Truth doesn't matter, consistency doesn't matter, faith doesn't matter.

892
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:44,920
Speaker 1: And now he's justifying abortion with his biblical claims.

893
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 2: Here's cut number five.

894
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,720
Speaker 7: But I think all this in terms in context of abortion,

895
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:56,360
Speaker 7: because before God comes over Mary and we have the incarnation,

896
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:02,359
Speaker 7: God asks for Mary's consent, which is remarkable. I mean,

897
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:07,279
Speaker 7: go back and read this in Luke. I mean the

898
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,799
Speaker 7: angel comes down and asks Mary if this is something

899
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 7: she wants to do, and she says, if it is

900
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:15,799
Speaker 7: God's will, let it be done, let it be let

901
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,759
Speaker 7: it happen. So to me, that is an affirmation in

902
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,480
Speaker 7: one of our most central stories that creation has to

903
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,640
Speaker 7: be done with consent. You cannot force someone to create.

904
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:28,440
Speaker 7: Creation is one of the most sacred acts that that

905
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 7: we engage in as human beings. But that has to

906
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 7: be done with consent. It has to be done with freedom.

907
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:39,280
Speaker 7: And to me, that is absolutely consistent with the ministry

908
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,480
Speaker 7: and life and death of Jesus. And so that's that's

909
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 7: how I come down on that side of the issue.

910
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 1: James Tallerico says that an angel came and offered Mary

911
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:53,480
Speaker 1: an abortion. That's his view to support his idea that

912
00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 1: the Bible is pro choice. This man is a phony,

913
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 1: a liar, and a total joke. When we come back

914
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 1: holding on immigration, don't miss it at Scott Jennings here

915
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 1: on Salem. Hey, it's Scott, and I'm so excited to

916
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:09,240
Speaker 1: welcome Crowdhealth as a new partner to the Scott Jennings

917
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: Show for several years, I'm hearing more people voicing frustration

918
00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:17,719
Speaker 1: with traditional health insurance. Bad incentives baked into Obamacare have

919
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 1: sent cost soaring. The rules are a maze of jargon,

920
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 1: and people feel stuck. That's why I want to tell

921
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:27,880
Speaker 1: you about my new partner, Crowdhealth. Crowdhealth is an insurance.

922
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 1: It's a community that cuts out the middleman to help

923
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:35,160
Speaker 1: one another fund medical expenses, giving you more freedom, fewer surprises,

924
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:39,279
Speaker 1: and greater control over your healthcare choices. And when it

925
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,720
Speaker 1: comes to cost, members are spending hundreds less per month

926
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 1: compared to traditional insurance. Right now, you can get started

927
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 1: for just ninety nine dollars per month for your first

928

Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Scott Chenning Show, Tuesday, February third.

Speaker 1: Tracking all the breaking news today, of course, a lot

935
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:20,319
Speaker 1: of it revolving around immigration, and I've been wondering what

936
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,399
Speaker 1: do actual voters think about all of this back and

937
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:29,720
Speaker 1: forth on Minnesota the idea of enforcing our national immigration laws.

938
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 1: And fortunately I know someone who can tell us the answer.

939
00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 1: My friend and nationally renowned Republican polster Brent Buchanan is

940
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:46,920
Speaker 1: here from the Signal that's cyg Nal polling group joins

941
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:50,600
Speaker 1: the show. Brent, you all over at Signal published some

942
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:56,200
Speaker 1: eye popping polling data yesterday and I was perusing this

943
00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:59,920
Speaker 1: and the only thing I can say is that democra

944
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:04,840
Speaker 1: are absolutely out over their skis when it comes to

945
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 1: their political positioning on immigration. Brent, welcome back to the show.

946
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this poll.

947
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:11,759
Speaker 2: Man.

948
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:12,760
Speaker 4: They live in a bubble.

949
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,759
Speaker 6: If you watch the news and you polled people who

950
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,439
Speaker 6: are delivering the news to us, quote news, you would

951
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 6: have a drastically different view than what Americans actually believe.

952
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,160
Speaker 6: That's why we did this poll last week because I

953
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,319
Speaker 6: knew there was a gap. I didn't realize there was

954
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:31,440
Speaker 6: a chasm between the two. And even just starting with

955
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:34,840
Speaker 6: the principle of what does illegal mean, you know, we

956
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,000
Speaker 6: had to have this discussion of what is a man

957
00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 6: and what is a woman. The Democrats still haven't figured

958
00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,399
Speaker 6: that one out. They also don't know what the word

959
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 6: illegal means. So seventy three percent of voters say that

960
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,960
Speaker 6: if you came here without permission, you broke the law.

961
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 4: That is the definition of illegal.

962
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:53,399
Speaker 6: But the reason it's so low is because forty five

963
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:56,479
Speaker 6: percent of Democrats disagree with that statement, and of those

964
00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:00,760
Speaker 6: the remainder who do agree, it's very soft. They're super

965
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:04,719
Speaker 6: tepid in their understanding of what the word illegally even means.

966
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:06,759
Speaker 6: So if we can't agree on that, how do we

967
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 6: agree on deportation wise in any of these other issues.

968
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:13,359
Speaker 1: Well, it's a good question, and I have sat on

969
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:17,399
Speaker 1: many a CNN panel over the last several months, and

970
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 1: I have been chastised and condescended to about this. I've

971
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 1: been told by news anchors that it's not actually illegal

972
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:26,160
Speaker 1: to enter our country illegally.

973
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:27,600
Speaker 2: I was told by some.

974
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 1: Twerp the other night, I'm not allowed to use the

975
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:35,360
Speaker 1: phrase illegal aliens anymore, even though that phrase does appear

976
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:38,520
Speaker 1: in US law. But for the record, it is a

977
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:42,040
Speaker 1: crime to come into the country illegally. It's also a

978
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,480
Speaker 1: crime to come in, be deported and come back in.

979
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 1: It's also a crime to run away when you're trying

980
00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 1: to be apprehended by ice.

981
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:50,040
Speaker 2: We've seen that happening.

982
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:55,040
Speaker 1: So according to your polling, though, despite all the propaganda about, oh,

983
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 1: it's not really a crime, you're saying, Brett, the American

984
00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:59,359
Speaker 1: people know full well that it is.

985
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,840
Speaker 4: A crime unless you're a Democrat.

986
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:06,560
Speaker 2: Yes, right, of course, unless you're a Democrat. All right,

987
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:08,920
Speaker 2: So the first question very clear.

988
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 1: Three quarters of the American people say, yes, it is

989
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: a crime to enter the country illegally. Let's talk about

990
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,480
Speaker 1: the severity of the problem. Another thing that we often

991
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:22,640
Speaker 1: hear is that, oh, well, you know, why are we going.

992
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 2: After these illegal aliens? Is this really an issue?

993
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:29,160
Speaker 1: And then they make up anecdotes or fantasy stories about

994
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 1: bakers who've been in the country for forty seven years

995
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 1: and they're just baking their muffins and they're not bothering anyone.

996
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:38,120
Speaker 1: What are the American people have to say, according to

997
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:41,960
Speaker 1: your polling about the severity of the problem of illegal immigration.

998
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,800
Speaker 6: Well, let's start with Democrats, because they're in this parallel universe.

999
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,600
Speaker 6: And it reminds me of this great movie Monty Python

1000
00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 6: where the night is bleeding now has no legs and

1001
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 6: says tisimere flesh wound, And that's essentially where Democrats are

1002
00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 6: right now, sixty one percent say it is not a

1003
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 6: serious problem, not even a problem at all, two thirds

1004
00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:05,320
Speaker 6: of Democrats. You go to look at voters overall, and

1005
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:08,160
Speaker 6: it's two thirds say it is a somewhat or very

1006
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 6: serious problem. It's even stronger among swing voters. You go

1007
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:14,760
Speaker 6: look at the demographics who matter and make decisions and

1008
00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 6: who wins elections, they all strongly agree that this is

1009
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,360
Speaker 6: a real problem. It's just on the other side of

1010
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 6: the ledger. The Democrats think it's tis mirror a flesh wind.

1011
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:27,720
Speaker 1: I guess it stands to reason though, that if you're

1012
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 1: a Democrat who doesn't believe that it is illegal to

1013
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: enter the country anyway, then you wouldn't think illegal immigration

1014
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 1: was a problem because you don't actually believe that immigration

1015
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:37,800
Speaker 1: is illegal.

1016
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 2: So I guess it stands to reason.

1017
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:43,080
Speaker 1: But on this note, as an issue for electoral matters,

1018
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 1: you've got a political party that says, no, no, this isn't

1019
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 1: a problem. But you've got two thirds of the American

1020
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 1: people that say, yes, illegal immigration is a severe national problem.

1021
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,120
Speaker 1: All right, So if you've got two thirds of the

1022
00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,120
Speaker 1: American people who say it's a problem, you've got three

1023
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,520
Speaker 1: quarters of the American people who acknowledge that people are

1024
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 1: breaking the law when they come into the country illegally.

1025
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:08,480
Speaker 1: Let's talk about what your polling found. What should we

1026
00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 1: do about it? People's opinions of actual deportation. What do

1027
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 1: people think about deporting those who are here illegally?

1028
00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 2: Brent Buchanan of Signal, A lot.

1029
00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 6: Of times you see this question where it says deport

1030
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 6: those criminals who are here illegally. And I think that,

1031
00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:29,280
Speaker 6: of course, is going to perform well, because who's going

1032
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:31,400
Speaker 6: to say keep criminals here? Except I bet there are

1033
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 6: many Democrats who.

1034
00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 4: Would say that.

1035
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,960
Speaker 6: So we wrote the question a bit more basic and said,

1036
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,960
Speaker 6: do you support or depose those illegally here in the

1037
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:44,640
Speaker 6: US back to their country of origin? Sixty one percent support,

1038
00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:48,560
Speaker 6: and then Democrats and their alternate reality sixty seven percent

1039
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 6: in opposition. And I begin to wonder as I look

1040
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:54,520
Speaker 6: at all of this, because rule of law is common sense,

1041
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:57,360
Speaker 6: and you know, these are the same people who are

1042
00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 6: telling us to trust the science during COVID, yet they're

1043
01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 6: completely ignoring the rule of law. And I really wonder

1044
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:05,640
Speaker 6: how much of this is just the fact that Donald

1045
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:08,040
Speaker 6: Trump thinks it's illegal. If you cross the border, which

1046
01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,880
Speaker 6: is common sense. And Donald Trump thinks that people need

1047
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 6: to go back who came here illegally, and therefore they

1048
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,560
Speaker 6: have to oppose it. They it's like morally within their

1049
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:20,080
Speaker 6: code that they cannot agree with Donald Trump on anything.

1050
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 1: And let's set some facts about your polling sample here.

1051
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 1: You pulled over a thousand Americans and these are all

1052
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 1: likely mid term voters.

1053
01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 6: Correct, Correct, and we even set the frame because when

1054
01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 6: you're doing polling, you've got to look at what is

1055
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:35,800
Speaker 6: turnout going to be?

1056
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:37,919
Speaker 4: And that is not just a number, It.

1057
01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 6: Is a how it is, gender breakdown, how does age breakdown? Education,

1058
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:45,600
Speaker 6: you know, college education versus not college education, Partisanship, There's

1059
01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:47,439
Speaker 6: a lot of factors that go into how we're looking

1060
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,080
Speaker 6: at this. And our team has just decided that we're,

1061
01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:53,000
Speaker 6: at least this far out from the election, going to

1062
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 6: take a conservative approach to what we think the turnout's

1063
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 6: going to be, and that it's going to look a

1064
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 6: little bit more like twenty eighteen.

1065
01:00:59,040 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 4: Than it did twenty twenty.

1066
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,880
Speaker 6: To you know, I'm beginning to believe with issues like

1067
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:05,320
Speaker 6: this that we're going to see a midterm that looks

1068
01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:08,280
Speaker 6: more like twenty two. So you can almost take this

1069
01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 6: as a worst case scenario poll that the numbers are

1070
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:14,640
Speaker 6: likely better than this if Republicans are able to capitalize

1071
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:18,360
Speaker 6: on this issue and really cast the Democrats as extreme,

1072
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 6: because that's what elections come down to. It's the reason

1073
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 6: that nobody had on their bingo car that we were

1074
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:27,480
Speaker 6: going to close out the presidential election with transgendered sex

1075
01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:30,840
Speaker 6: changes for prisoners or men and women's sports.

1076
01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:32,280
Speaker 4: But here we are. That's how we.

1077
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 6: Closed out the election. And that's not because that was

1078
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:37,000
Speaker 6: the most pressing issue. It's because that was a great

1079
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 6: way to show that the Democrats are extreme and radical

1080
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:42,480
Speaker 6: and way outside the mainstream. And I view this immigration

1081
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 6: and deportation issue is the exact same opportunity.

1082
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:48,920
Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing on the Scott Shedding Show today,

1083
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:53,960
Speaker 1: that of Brent Buchanan of Signal cyg NAL, a leading

1084
01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:59,400
Speaker 1: polling organization for Republicans. We're talking about some national polling

1085
01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:02,360
Speaker 1: that Brent had company have just come out of a

1086
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:06,040
Speaker 1: field with so on the issue of deportation, over sixty

1087
01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:09,280
Speaker 1: percent of midterm voters say deport those who are.

1088
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:10,560
Speaker 2: Illegally in the United States.

1089
01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:12,960
Speaker 1: And you didn't parse it out and say those who

1090
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:16,400
Speaker 1: are here illegally and have committed other crimes. This is

1091
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 1: simply if you're in the country illegally. Sixty percent of

1092
01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 1: midterm voters want those people deported.

1093
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,560
Speaker 2: That's a clear majority of the American people.

1094
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:27,360
Speaker 4: Oh, it's huge.

1095
01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 6: And I actually was digging in this morning and wrote

1096
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:31,480
Speaker 6: an article about this, and you can check it out

1097
01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 6: on my x profile of why is this so radically

1098
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:38,400
Speaker 6: different of how the media is framing this and how

1099
01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:41,920
Speaker 6: American voters set Because if you look at the media framing,

1100
01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:45,840
Speaker 6: it's over ninety percent negative on the issue of deportation.

1101
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 6: And I found a subgroup of voters who I'm pretty

1102
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 6: darn sure as in control of the media, and it

1103
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,680
Speaker 6: is young, white liberal women. They are ninety four percent

1104
01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:57,200
Speaker 6: opposed to deportations, ninety four percent, when the rest of

1105
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:59,760
Speaker 6: the country is sixty one percent in support of it.

1106
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 4: I mean, that is a that's beyond a chasm.

1107
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:04,040
Speaker 6: I don't know what the next adjective I can use

1108
01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:06,680
Speaker 6: to describe is, but it makes a lot of sense

1109
01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:09,840
Speaker 6: when you realize who is pushing this news to us

1110
01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,680
Speaker 6: and how radically different they are on this topic than

1111
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:14,360
Speaker 6: literally everybody else.

1112
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,480
Speaker 1: Well, it's not just this topic it's a lot of topics,

1113
01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:20,200
Speaker 1: but that'll be a conversation for another day. Rent a

1114
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,959
Speaker 1: couple of more questions you asked, and you talked about

1115
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 1: the relentless negative media coverage. If it's ninety percent negative

1116
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 1: on deportations, it's one hundred percent negative when it comes

1117
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:34,440
Speaker 1: specifically to ICE and ICE tactics. But in your survey,

1118
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:38,400
Speaker 1: you found a majority of the American people support ICE,

1119
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:43,800
Speaker 1: specifically saying ICE en forcing immigration laws to remove illegal immigrants.

1120
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,720
Speaker 1: It says here, fifty four percent of the American people

1121
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:48,680
Speaker 1: support ICE removals.

1122
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:51,000
Speaker 2: But what was the story among democrats?

1123
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:56,360
Speaker 6: Eighty one percent of post you're taking to liberal women,

1124
01:03:56,400 --> 01:04:01,520
Speaker 6: and it's approaching one hundred percent in opposition to what

1125
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,160
Speaker 6: ICE is doing. And the same reason on this that

1126
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:06,280
Speaker 6: we phrased the question. We didn't say do you like Ice,

1127
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,439
Speaker 6: because my guess is that that is actually upside down.

1128
01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:13,040
Speaker 6: But we said ICE, which is its mission to enforce

1129
01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 6: federal immigration laws by what? By removing illegal immigrants from

1130
01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:19,680
Speaker 6: the US. We laid out exactly what ICE does and

1131
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:21,720
Speaker 6: what it is currently doing, and it gets fifty four

1132
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,200
Speaker 6: percent support among swing voters, it jumps to almost sixty

1133
01:04:25,200 --> 01:04:28,280
Speaker 6: percent support. So again, it's just the Democrats once again

1134
01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 6: strongly in opposition to an issue that sixty percent of

1135
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:33,880
Speaker 6: the people who are going to decide this selection swing

1136
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 6: voters actually agree with Donald Trump and the Republicans on all.

1137
01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:41,400
Speaker 1: Right, Brent, let's close out this conversation by talking about

1138
01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:46,160
Speaker 1: electoral impact on the initial generic ballot. You found that

1139
01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:51,240
Speaker 1: Democrats had a small lead over Republicans on the generic ballot.

1140
01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:55,320
Speaker 1: But when you ask people do these immigration issues, does

1141
01:04:55,480 --> 01:05:00,000
Speaker 1: opposing ice enforcing immigration laws make you change your opinion?

1142
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 2: And what happened?

1143
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:04,800
Speaker 1: In other words, my question is is can Republicans use

1144
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:08,840
Speaker 1: the immigration issue and pivot off of what Democrats are

1145
01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:12,560
Speaker 1: saying to erase the democratic advantage that they appear to

1146
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:13,360
Speaker 1: have in the midterm?

1147
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:13,680
Speaker 2: Yes?

1148
01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 3: Or no?

1149
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 6: Completely lean in harder, don't go backwards. When I see

1150
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 6: some of these members of Congress talking about how we

1151
01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:24,520
Speaker 6: should have been more targeted and how we're approaching this,

1152
01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:26,600
Speaker 6: and then I look at this data and think, you.

1153
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:29,600
Speaker 4: Guys need to go You're part of the problem.

1154
01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:32,520
Speaker 6: You know, the Republicans who are saying go further are

1155
01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 6: the ones who are part of the solution here, because

1156
01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 6: that's what voters are telling us.

1157
01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 4: Almost sixty percent of folks oppose shutting.

1158
01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:44,160
Speaker 6: Down the government to defund ICE. They oppose defunding ICE, period.

1159
01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:46,840
Speaker 6: And then when you to your point you ask about

1160
01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 6: it in an electoral context, that swings the race six points.

1161
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:53,120
Speaker 6: That is almost double the margin of era of this

1162
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:58,080
Speaker 6: poll shift. When we make this election about Democrats not

1163
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:01,080
Speaker 6: supporting ICE, not being for deport people, and then going

1164
01:06:01,080 --> 01:06:02,600
Speaker 6: so far as because they want to shut down the

1165
01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 6: government over it, that is a six point swing. I

1166
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,400
Speaker 6: don't know another issue that I could lay out for

1167
01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 6: our clients, who are a lot of these people you know,

1168
01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 6: running for office and in an office right now, that

1169
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:14,880
Speaker 6: would give them a six point swing, double the margin

1170
01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:15,760
Speaker 6: of error for survey.

1171
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:20,720
Speaker 1: That voice is Brent Buchanan. He is a leading Republican polster.

1172
01:06:20,880 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 1: He is with signal Brent. We've got about thirty seconds.

1173
01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm just going to sum it up. Number one, the

1174
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:30,120
Speaker 1: American people want deportations. Number two, the American people support ICE.

1175
01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:33,800
Speaker 1: Number three, Democrats are living on another planet when it

1176
01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 1: comes to immigration. And number four, if you're a Republican candidate,

1177
01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: within the sound of our voices, lean in, don't lean out,

1178
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:46,560
Speaker 1: don't go wobbly, be for deportations, be for strong borders

1179
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:50,160
Speaker 1: and b for the American people. That was Brent Buchanan.

1180
01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:52,960
Speaker 1: This is Scott Jennings. You're listening to common sense for

1181
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:54,760
Speaker 1: the American people. More after this.

1182
01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 5: S slag the lovediest narratives one by one. This is

1183
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:00,080
Speaker 5: the Scott Jennings shit.

1184
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 2: Breaking news to all of you.

1185
01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,880
Speaker 1: This morning, as I was preparing the show, I was

1186
01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:16,880
Speaker 1: preparing to report to you all about the neighborhood blockades

1187
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:18,400
Speaker 1: that are going on in Minneapolis.

1188
01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:19,240
Speaker 2: You've seen the video.

1189
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:23,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure these civilians are setting up blockade. You pull

1190
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:28,240
Speaker 1: up and they check your license plate. These people aren't police,

1191
01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:31,280
Speaker 1: they're not there in any official capacity, but they check

1192
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:37,120
Speaker 1: your license plate. This is highly illegal. So I emailed Jared,

1193
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:41,000
Speaker 1: you know you were there. I emailed the city of Minneapolis,

1194
01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:45,440
Speaker 1: and I had a simple question. Has anyone been arrested

1195
01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:51,120
Speaker 1: for setting up illegal blockades, for harassing citizens, for apparently

1196
01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 1: having some sort of secret database by which they check

1197
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:58,920
Speaker 1: whether your license plate belongs to an ice vehicle. And

1198
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,760
Speaker 1: after some back and forth with the City of Minneapolis

1199
01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:07,240
Speaker 1: just a moment ago, literally minutes ago, we got a

1200
01:08:07,280 --> 01:08:09,880
Speaker 1: response from the Minneapolis Police.

1201
01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:17,759
Speaker 2: I will read it to you. No arrests have been made. Now.

1202
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:20,880
Speaker 1: The city did tell me that the public works team

1203
01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:24,800
Speaker 1: did clean up the street and they took away the

1204
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:27,920
Speaker 1: barricades and all the crap that was in the street,

1205
01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:36,080
Speaker 1: But no arrests have been made. Why Why Why are

1206
01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:41,280
Speaker 1: civilians in Minneapolis, Minnesota, or anywhere else for that matter,

1207
01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 1: allowed to go out into the street, build a barricade,

1208
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:52,440
Speaker 1: physically stop other citizens other people from driving their cars,

1209
01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:55,799
Speaker 1: tell them to roll down their window. I've seen video

1210
01:08:56,640 --> 01:09:00,880
Speaker 1: of people saying, oh, we ran your licenate through a

1211
01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:04,160
Speaker 1: database and it looks like your car is owned by ice.

1212
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 2: We need you to get out of the car. We

1213
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:07,880
Speaker 2: need to talk to you about this.

1214
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:11,479
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something right now, if I rolled

1215
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:17,800
Speaker 1: up on some rinky dink makeshift barricade and somebody had

1216
01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:21,400
Speaker 1: me rolled down my window and said, hey, I need

1217
01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:24,720
Speaker 1: to talk to you about your license plate, well, let

1218
01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:27,679
Speaker 1: me just tell you I wouldn't be putting it in park.

1219
01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 2: Okay, this is not normal behavior. Why?

1220
01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:37,080
Speaker 1: But again, there's a lot of mental illness out there.

1221
01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:42,439
Speaker 1: I don't understand why the police don't arrest people now.

1222
01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:44,200
Speaker 2: We already know that in Minneapolis.

1223
01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:47,799
Speaker 1: According to Todd Lyons, who told us on this show.

1224
01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:51,599
Speaker 1: The mayor told the police department do not assist ICE

1225
01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:55,960
Speaker 1: if they are under attack from illegal aliens. So if

1226
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,439
Speaker 1: ICE is out doing its job and they come under attack,

1227
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:03,519
Speaker 1: we know that the police were instructed not to help. Now,

1228
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:07,200
Speaker 1: it seems to me, because no arrests have been made

1229
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:11,960
Speaker 1: in these blockades, that somebody told the police don't arrest

1230
01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:15,559
Speaker 1: these guys. And you know what happens when people get

1231
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:19,320
Speaker 1: away with crap like this, They will do it again.

1232
01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 1: Other people will be inspired to do it. That's what

1233
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:30,320
Speaker 1: you get. That's what you get when you don't arrest people.

1234
01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:34,920
Speaker 1: But that's the breaking news from the Scott Jennings Show.

1235
01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:40,120
Speaker 1: To close out today, I have received official confirmation from

1236
01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:44,000
Speaker 1: the City of Minneapolis, the public information officer of the

1237
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:46,240
Speaker 1: police department. It's right here in front of me on

1238
01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:52,600
Speaker 1: this screen. No arrests have been made, even though we

1239
01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 1: have people in the street building barricades and stopping their

1240
01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 1: fellow citizens. It is more than just a traffic hazard.

1241
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:03,720
Speaker 1: It is unsafe, it is harassment. This is clearly illegal behavior.

1242
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:09,080
Speaker 1: But in Minneapolis, where they exist in a state of

1243
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:13,680
Speaker 1: secession from the federal government, apparently they also exist in

1244
01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:17,280
Speaker 1: a state of secession from their own laws and from

1245
01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:21,840
Speaker 1: good public order. If I lived in Minneapolis, I would

1246
01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 1: demand arrests. I want people arrested for doing crap like this.
