Welcome to the Scott Jenning Show. 3 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 3: Heynn Jennings. 4 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 4: I'm out traveling today, but sitting in for me, Jennifer Horn. 5 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 3: Jennifer, thank you and take it away. 6 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:21,759 Speaker 2: Thank you, Scott.

Scott is off today. 10 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 2: I'll be back next week. He'll be back on Monday. 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: In the meantime, I'm Jennifer Horney. Scott said, I host 12 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 2: some Morning Answer on Salem Radio in Los Angeles AM 13 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 2: eight seventy AM five ninety the Answer, and boy, we 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 2: are ground zero for what has been a new investigation 15 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: into election fraud, slow vote counting. We'll have all of 16 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 2: that this hour, but first I promise you some good news. 17 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 2: We're delivering common sense and good news because guys, it's Friday. 18 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 2: I don't know if you've heard the breaking news. It 19 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 2: is Friday. It is June fifth. And as much as 20 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: Democrats would like you to believe that the economy is 21 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: suffering well, the US labor market appears to have found 22 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 2: its footing, the economy adding one hundred and seventy two 23 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 2: thousand jobs in May, shattering expectations. This has new data 24 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,559 Speaker 2: releases some morning hot off the presses from the Bureau 25 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 2: of Labor Statistics. The latest jobs report provided a reassurance 26 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 2: for those doubters that the US labor market is stabilizing 27 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: after a year. Biden of week and stilled to job growth. 28 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 5: Now. 29 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: To be fair to Joe Biden, he had job growth, 30 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: it was just in the public sector. The nice thing 31 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: about President Trump is that government jobs are no longer growing. 32 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: It is the private sector. It's those small businesses, medium 33 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 2: sized businesses that are actually seeing the job growth. Unemployment 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 2: held SETI at four point three percent. Employment gains topped 35 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: one hundred thousand and for the third consecutive months that 36 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 2: has not been seen since twenty twenty four. Job growth 37 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 2: also far stronger than initially thought. In recent months, the 38 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 2: March payroll gains were revised up from twenty nine thousand 39 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 2: to two hundred and fourteen thousand, while the April tally 40 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 2: was revised higher by sixty four thousand to one hundred 41 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: and seventy nine thousand jobs added. Now, I know there 42 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: are a lot of people out there it's a midterm 43 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: year who are on the other side of the aisle, 44 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 2: who are saying President Trump's economy is somehow stuck, that 45 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 2: it's not good. I've had people, when they hear me 46 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: say that the Trump economy is actually roaring, challenge me 47 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: and say, well, how can that be. But if you 48 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: look at the stock market, you look at the job numbers, 49 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: you look at inflation, everything is better from when Biden 50 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: was in office. The one place where President Trump obviously 51 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 2: has work to do is on gas prices. Now under 52 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 2: his administration, gas prices have not been lower in years, 53 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 2: but certainly this war in Iran has made those gas 54 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,119 Speaker 2: prices go up, which impacts the cost of goods and services, 55 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 2: things that we see at our grocery store, everything that 56 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: relies on truckers the road on fuel to deliver them. 57 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: So once the war in Iran ends, once President Trump 58 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 2: and we don't even need the war to end, but 59 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 2: once the straight of horror moves is open, and those 60 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 2: global oil markets start to settle, I don't see how 61 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: Democrats will be able to touch Republicans and President Trump 62 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 2: with talk of the economy. I just don't get it. 63 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 2: You can talk about affordability and it's smart because everybody 64 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 2: wants more money and everybody thinks that things should be 65 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: more affordable, so it hits people's emotions. But if you 66 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 2: really look around this latest report today, with the job numbers, 67 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 2: looking at the stock market reaching historic highs, this economy 68 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: is sailing now. The Republican Party just needs to do 69 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: a better job of messaging that because Democrats seem to 70 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: get more microphone time, more time in front of those 71 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: news cameras to talk about just how poor it is. 72 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: But I say, how do you feel that this economy 73 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 2: is suffering? We can work on gas prices, that has 74 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: to be improved before the midterm elections. But in every 75 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 2: other way, President Trump has done everything he can to 76 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: make this economy start to sing. And I see with 77 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: his policies in place and this big, beautiful bill finally 78 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: rolled out, we're going to see more and more of 79 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 2: that now also going on today. And good news for 80 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: President Trump and Senate Republicans. They were able to advance 81 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: ice and border patrol funding through the end of President 82 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: Trump's second term after beating back multiple amendments targeting his priorities. 83 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 2: During one of these eighteen hour vote a ramas, they 84 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: were able to knock that down, and they did that quickly. Well, 85 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: if you consider eighteen hours quick these things are always fun, 86 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: you know. They just vote, vote, vote, talk talk, talk 87 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 2: talk talk. This was a party line vote, and it 88 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 2: had been in flux over the last couple of weeks, 89 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: senators revolting against the Anti Weaponization fund that President Trump 90 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 2: chose to give up at least for now in order 91 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 2: to get this thing done. The final vote was fifty 92 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 2: two forty seven, with Senator Lisa Murkowski voting no. She's 93 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 2: from Alaska's we should just call her miss No. She 94 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: is always a no vote pretty much on everything, and 95 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 2: Senator Michael Bennett in Colorado not voting. The vote rama 96 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 2: allowed senators to vote to offer unlimited amendments, forcing GOP 97 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 2: leadership to repeatedly defeat amendments that targeted the two Trump provisions. 98 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: But we were able to get this in passed. Now 99 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 2: we've got full funding for ICE through the end of 100 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 2: Trump's term. And thank goodness, because while things have settled down, 101 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 2: you the border is by and large it's secure from 102 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 2: people coming across it. Willy nilly like they were under 103 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: the Biden administration. But the drugs are still coming, the 104 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 2: cartels are still running. There are still instances where this 105 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 2: border needs full funding, and ICE needs to have the 106 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 2: money to do that. Not only do we need them 107 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 2: in our cities, but we still need them at the border. 108 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: Customs and Border Protection. I don't know if you've heard 109 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 2: about this. They stopped two vehicles and confiscated are you ready, 110 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: three hundred thousand dollars worth of narcotics in the span 111 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 2: of one day. 112 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 6: Now. 113 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 2: I'm not an expert in the drug business, but sounds 114 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 2: like a lot of drugs. Sounds like a lot of 115 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: drugs to me. The apprehensions continue to show that high 116 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: volume of narcotics that smugglers are attempting to bring across 117 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: the border. Even as immigration numbers start to plummet, we 118 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: still need that border protection. The fact that Democrats were 119 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 2: trying to hold back on this, it's absolutely astonishing. Nothing 120 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: surprises me anymore, but it really is shameful because not 121 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 2: only do we need CBP and ICE to maintain order 122 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 2: to get out the worst of the worst people who 123 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 2: were let into this country by the Biden administration, but 124 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: they need to be on duty and at full strength 125 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 2: to combat these cartels. So this all happened on May seventeenth, 126 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 2: where agents in the Santy Citro Port of Entry refer 127 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 2: to a twenty thirteen Honda Civic for secondary inspection. They 128 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 2: had an imaging system that detected anomalies in the car's firewall. 129 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 2: They discovered six packages of white fatinal powder worth roughly 130 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirteen thousand, six hundred dollars, along with 131 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 2: eight point four pounds of cocaine estimated to be worth 132 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: one hundred and sixty one thousand, six hundred dollars and 133 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 2: no Hunter Biden was not driving that Hunt A seven 134 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,679 Speaker 2: by the way, in case you're worried he was not there, 135 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: we can clear him of that that same day. So 136 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: that was just one instance. But that same day at 137 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 2: the Calexico Port of Entry, about one hundred miles away, 138 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: a twenty eleven Nissan Cube was also sent in for 139 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 2: secondary inspection. Agents there discovered sixty three packets of meth 140 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 2: after a scan of the vehicle, thought, hmm, a little 141 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: bit of abnormality in the flooring of that vehicle, so 142 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 2: that it's shoved under the floor of the car. The 143 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: San Diego, director of Field Operations for CBP, said, Sunday 144 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: maybe a day of rest for many, but criminals don't 145 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 2: take it off, and neither do the CBP officers. She 146 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 2: said that they're remaining vigilant around the clock and that 147 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: these seizures are a direct result of their commitment to 148 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: keeping dangerous drugs off the street. These operations, by the way, 149 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 2: are so important. You've got to have these checks and bounces. 150 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 2: They've had to shut down because of funding issues entire 151 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: ports of entry. So the fact that they have people 152 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: out there and that they're fully funded, it's a big deal. 153 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 2: And it's about time the United States Senate Republicans in 154 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: there actually got this thing done. All right, Coming up today, 155 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 2: we have lots to talk about. We have a brand 156 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 2: new nomination for attorney General. President Trump officially announcing Todd 157 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: blanche as his permanent pick to replace Pambondy, And he 158 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 2: is saying that California is guilty perhaps voter fraud. Some 159 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: new investigations into what is happening in my state of California. 160 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: As votes are slowly counting, it's amazing. As they're being counted, 161 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 2: the numbers for the Democrats are ticking upwards. This always 162 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: makes people lose faith in the system. President Trump has 163 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 2: been talking about this, gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton has been 164 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: talking about this, and we will go through what that 165 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 2: investigation is going to look like and just why the 166 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 2: vote count is taking so long. The California governor even 167 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 2: chiming in on this and blowing it off, basically saying 168 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 2: that President Trump and Steve Hilton, the gubernatorial candid, don't 169 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 2: know exactly how the system works, and saying he wishes 170 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: that counting would go faster in California.

I'm Jennifer Horn. I host 179 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: the Morning Answer on Salem Radio in Los Angeles. You 180 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: can give me a follow at Jennifer Horn or Jennifer 181 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 2: Horn Radio on Instagram and Facebook, and always follow the 182 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 2: Jenning show at Hey Jenning Show on X all Right, 183 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 2: yesterday President Trump made it official. He has officially decided 184 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 2: to replace outgoing attorney general. She's fired Pam Bondy with 185 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 2: Todd blanche who is the acting Attorney General, former attorney 186 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 2: for the president. He announces yesterday cut twenty seven he's. 187 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 3: Acting Attorney General. Tomorrow. 188 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 7: I'm in trucking Dad and everybody else that's involved in 189 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 7: that very complicated process which is. 190 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 8: Going to go. 191 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 7: I think very quickly that we are going to make 192 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 7: him permanent attorney general. 193 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 2: All right, So he wants to make him permanently the 194 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 2: attorney general. But are the senators ready to go along 195 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 2: with the president. Now, I've always said, no matter who 196 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 2: is in the White House, they should be able, barring 197 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: extenuating circumstances, to have the people around them that they 198 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 2: wish to have around them, whether that was Barack Obama's 199 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 2: team or President Trump's team. Unless there is a huge issue, well, 200 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 2: they deserve to have their people confirmed. And I think 201 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: most people who are given true sarum would agree with that. 202 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: But this is not the old days, and senators look 203 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: to see what they can get for pushing along a confirmation. 204 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 2: Now we know that Senator John Fetterman is the one 205 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 2: Democrat who seems to have that same mentality that unless 206 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 2: there is a massive problem, he is going to vote 207 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 2: for to confirm. So President Trump can probably think that 208 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: he will have Fetterman on the Democrats side and not 209 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 2: much else. We heard Senator Whitehouse say that he was 210 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: not in on this Blanche nomination. He called it disgraceful. 211 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 2: Take a listen, cut seven. 212 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 9: We've gone from the Trump thug moment where they all 213 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 9: have to obediately obey to now what I call the 214 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 9: Blazing Saddles moment. If you remember the scene in Blazing 215 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 9: Saddles where the governor says, boys, it's time we started 216 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 9: looking out for our own phony, blowny jobs. So you know, 217 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 9: this Blanche nomination is so disgusting that it's really going 218 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 9: to put them over a barrel. And to some extent 219 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 9: it's like wonderful for us, great bring it. 220 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 2: I'm just curious why this is more awful for Senator 221 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: white House and some of these other senators on the 222 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 2: Democrat side than it was for Eric Holder to be 223 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 2: the attorney general for Barack Obama saying I'm his wingman. 224 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 2: Are they upset because Todd Blanche was the former personal 225 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: attorney of President Trump. He's still doing the work of 226 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 2: the attorney general, and from what I can tell, he's 227 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 2: doing a good job. But even Republicans are going to 228 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 2: be playing games with this nomination, including the man who 229 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 2: has caused some trouble for the Trump administration and for 230 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: Republicans in the Senate. Senator Tom Tillis from North Carolina. 231 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: He's on his way out the door, and he says 232 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: that if Todd Blanche is confirmed, if he gets his vote, 233 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 2: he's going to have to make apologies and make a 234 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: statement about January sixth, and the rioters take a list, 235 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 2: and this is cut eleven. 236 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 10: Could you support Todd Blanche's attorney general. 237 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 11: We're looking at it. I haven't made a decision. Yeah 238 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 11: that the key for Todd or anybody going through Judiciary 239 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 11: Committee has been pretty tight. On January sixth. They better 240 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 11: or not have said for one minute that the people 241 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 11: that made up police officers like these right down here, 242 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 11: we're righteous people. You come even close to saying that 243 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 11: you don't have a chair of get my vote in 244 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 11: judiciary all right. 245 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, the DOJ last month announced to an indictment against 246 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 2: the Southern Poverty Law Center, alleging that civil rights nonprofit 247 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 2: defrauded donors by secretly paying informants associated with extremist organizations, 248 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 2: including the ku Klux Klan. Federal jury grant Ury in 249 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 2: the Middle District of Alabama returned an eleven count indictment 250 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 2: in April, which we all heard about the Southern Poverty 251 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 2: Law Center with six counts of wire fraud, four counts 252 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 2: of making false statements to a federally insured bank, and 253 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: one count of conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering. According 254 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 2: to the Justice Department, that superseding indictment retains those charges 255 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 2: and expands alleged misconduct. According to the DOJ, the SPLC 256 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: secretly funneled three million dollars in donor funds between twenty 257 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 2: fourteen and twenty twenty three to numerous individuals associated with 258 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 2: extremist organizations, including the KKK, United Clans of America, the 259 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 2: National Socialist Movement, participants in the Unite the Right rally, 260 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 2: and the Area Nations affiliated. Are you ready for this? 261 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 2: Anybody a member of the Sadistic Soul's Motorcycle Club. That's 262 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 2: a Southern Poverty Law Center that is taking money from 263 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 2: their donors and putting them into organizations to help fuel 264 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 2: rallies that are I guess set up to make the 265 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: right look bad. Although I don't know many people on 266 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: the right who are members of the Sadistic Soul's Motorcycle 267 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 2: Club the KKK United Clans of America. This is unbelievable 268 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 2: and it is about time there is some accountability here. 269 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: So we need somebody strong like Todd Blanche in that 270 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 2: position and as Attorney General, to keep an eye on things. 271 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: All right, guys, as we continue, we'll be joined by 272 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 2: an assemblyman from right here in my state of California. 273 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: I'm Jennifer Horn.

It's very funny, 284 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 2: as someone who's lived in California my whole life, to 285 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: actually see the controversy over this election. And that's because 286 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 2: people are actually paying attention to California. With Steve Hilton 287 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 2: in the governor's race and Spencer Pratt in the LA 288 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 2: Mayor's race, this has been a problem long plaguing our state, 289 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: at least for the last to almost ten years now. 290 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 2: Federal prosecutors today say that multiple election fraud investigations are 291 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 2: underway in California as officials continue slowly to count ballots 292 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 2: from this week's primary election.

But I 305 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 3: think that's making him. 306 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 5: A better lawyer because he knows where all the bodies 307 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 5: are buried. 308 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 2: You know, it's funny when I was talking to him 309 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 2: about this issue with the elections, I Saippill, you know this. 310 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 2: You live through this because you have. You were running 311 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 2: for office yourself, and look, Assemblymen, you are in a 312 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 2: district where you won. What was the vote total? Like 313 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 2: I think four people didn't vote for you in your district? 314 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 2: What was it again? 315 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, well we won ninety five percent of the vote. 316 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 2: But who's bragging? 317 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 3: I mean, come on, well, I've got. 318 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 5: To figure out who that other vive went to and 319 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 5: see what we've got to do to be better. 320 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 2: That's right that you can always strive for more, But 321 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 2: I mean Bill Sale, he won some of his races 322 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 2: by a very thin margin. And we know that there's 323 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 2: been a problem with the voter rolls for a long 324 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 2: time in the state. But people are waking up to 325 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 2: why it takes so long to count the votes. And 326 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 2: the problem, in my mind, Assemblymen, are these mail in 327 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 2: ballots because we are accepting ballots for basically a week 328 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 2: after election day as long as they are postmarked. How 329 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 2: are you looking at this and is there room to 330 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 2: improve this system in California which is now kind of 331 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 2: making us the laughing stock of the country. 332 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm actually glad that a lot of people are 333 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 5: seeing why we're so frustrated with the system in the 334 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 5: state of California. People do not feel confident that when 335 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 5: you cast a ballot on a Tuesday, the first Tuesday 336 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 5: of the month, and then all of a sudden thirty 337 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 5: days later, well the end results are off by a 338 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 5: monumental amount, and so people they don't feel confident on that. 339 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 5: We have showed that in the California election, a dog 340 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 5: has successfully voted in the election. We have seen that 341 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 5: there are city council members like the one from Lodi 342 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 5: actually ran an operation of fraudulent ballots and registration. Not 343 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 5: only that, we also have a conviction and a guilty 344 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 5: charge that BILLI. Saley was able to bring to a 345 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 5: lady that was registering homeless people to sign ballots and petitions, 346 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 5: and she was registering to their homes. So some of 347 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 5: the issues that a lot of people are seeing today 348 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 5: is something that Californians have been frustrated for a long time. 349 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 5: So I'm actually really glad that this is finally getting 350 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 5: the attention because now we don't sound crazy. Now we 351 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 5: don't sound that we're just talking about this stuff. It's like, no, 352 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 5: there is an issue these melon ballots. 353 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 3: There's a pro that needs to be done. 354 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 5: And what we have right now is an honor system 355 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 5: with a lot of dishonest people that are playing the game, 356 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 5: and you can't just say, well, we hope they're doing 357 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 5: the right thing when it comes to casting ballots. And 358 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 5: in a state like California that has a large scale 359 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 5: population of illegal immigrants, in people who shouldn't have been 360 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 5: here in the first place, there's an issue when you 361 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 5: have an honor system, and so we know that there 362 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 5: are safeguards that need to be done. I don't believe 363 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 5: that we should have same day registration. I do believe 364 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 5: that we need some type of address or verification. I 365 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 5: almost put out, actually, this joke video for the amount 366 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 5: of people that want to vote for Spencer Pratt is 367 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 5: actually kind of insane. That Winser is doing a great job, 368 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 5: and I was going to tell them Hey, if you 369 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 5: want to vote for Spencer Pratt, here are the laws 370 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 5: in California that would allow you to do so. Now 371 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 5: I'm not encouraging it, I'm just simply saying the laws. 372 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 5: If you want to go to the city of la 373 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 5: you can tell them that you live on a park bench. 374 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 5: It is illegal for them to ask you for an ID. 375 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 5: To do it, you can same day register and they 376 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 5: have to give you a ballot. 377 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 3: Those are the laws in California. Do we think that 378 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 3: that is safe. Probably not. 379 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 5: But if you feel motivated and compelled to vote for 380 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 5: Spencer Pratt, those are the laws. And if anybody asks 381 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 5: you for an ID or an address verification, remind them 382 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 5: that it is illegal in the state of California for 383 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 5: them to ask for an ID, because those are the 384 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 5: ridiculous laws that the state of California have passed. 385 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 2: You know, I love that you bring that up, because 386 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 2: until something like that happens, where somebody walks in a 387 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 2: Spencer Pratt bro as they call him, and wants to 388 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 2: vote because he lives on a park bench and in 389 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 2: the city of Los Angeles, these laws will not change 390 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 2: because the Democrats that have been running the state have 391 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 2: been getting away with it for such a long time, 392 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 2: and you know, it's so funny. 393 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 12: To me. 394 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 2: The response from Gavin Newsom's press office is just so appalling. 395 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 2: Steve Hilton and President Trump have been talking about the 396 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: slow vote count. Obviously that is a big issue and 397 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 2: we want to make sure at that vote total stage 398 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 2: where it should for Steve Hilton. But Gavin Newsom said 399 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 2: his press office is I wish I could change things now. Assemblyman, 400 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 2: He's been in office for eight years. If you wanted 401 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 2: to change something, he had prime opportunity to do that. 402 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 3: Ye're on hred percent right. I mean, think about this. 403 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 5: California is the richest state in the richest country in 404 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 5: the history of the world, and they're saying that they 405 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 5: can't do something. We are the tech innovative capital of 406 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 5: the world, and we have more resources than any other state, 407 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 5: than any than almost all countries in the world, and 408 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 5: yet we can't do something. 409 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 3: That's wrong to me. 410 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 5: Actually, not only is that wrong to me, this is 411 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,479 Speaker 5: what happens when you have an inept government that simply 412 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 5: says that we can't even count ballots properly. 413 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 3: And if you can't count ballots properly. 414 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 5: And do something that's been a normal system for as 415 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 5: long as votes have been that as long as we've 416 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 5: had a republican a democracy. That's the rediculousness of the 417 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 5: state of California that is today. And so this is 418 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 5: where when the governor is just trying to say I 419 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 5: wish I could do something, I don't think he does. 420 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 5: I think they like this broken system because it makes 421 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 5: it very easy to get away with certain things. And 422 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 5: if nobody's looking and if nobody's checking, if you don't 423 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 5: have an attorney general that wants to demand things, if 424 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 5: you don't have a Secretary of State that wants to 425 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 5: put safeguards in place, and if you don't have a 426 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 5: governor or a legislature that wants to mess with their 427 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,239 Speaker 5: own bottom line because votes are their bottom line, then 428 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 5: there's no reason to change it, and they don't have 429 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 5: a reason to do so. But I'm glad right like 430 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 5: I said, right now, finally the exposure is coming showing 431 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 5: how ridiculous it is here in California. 432 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 2: And they benefit from the fraud, whether it's voter fraud, 433 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 2: whether it's the fact that people just feel disenfranchised and 434 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: stay home. Democrats benefit from that too, and they also 435 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 2: benefit from the fraud financially that has plagued our state. 436 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 2: I know you've been watching out for us here in California. 437 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 2: In the State Assembly. We've had a lot of conversation 438 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 2: about the fraud that's going on in Minnesota and now 439 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 2: here in California, the fraud and corruption that's been happening 440 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 2: in our state. Now, you just worked on a bill 441 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 2: Assembly Bill fifteen sixty, which is an anti corruption bill 442 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 2: pass the State Assembly. Tell us about this one. 443 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,719 Speaker 5: Well, this was one of my stable pieces of legislation 444 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 5: because I used to think when I was a citizen, 445 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 5: not before I was unelected, and I used to think 446 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 5: about where's the money, where's everything going? 447 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 3: How is it? How are we such a powerful economy 448 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:30,959 Speaker 3: in the world. 449 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 5: How are we the richest state in the richest country 450 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 5: and we have more resources than anywhere else and there's 451 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 5: nothing to show for it. You can't just say you're 452 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 5: the fourth largest economy. You should look like it, sound 453 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 5: like it, and act like it. In California doesn't. And 454 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 5: this is where we found out. Earlier this year, the 455 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 5: governor's former chief of staff has pled guilty to public 456 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 5: corruption charges. While she was in her trial proceedings, she 457 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 5: was attly soliciting contracts to get paid as a retainer 458 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 5: so she could make money for lobbying, gigs and government affairs. 459 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 5: Not only that, Xavier Visera's potentially the next governor of California, 460 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 5: his chief of staff also pled guilty to corruption. These 461 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 5: are major positions. What I want people to realize is 462 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 5: that a chief of staff is the direct access to 463 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 5: an elected official. They do our scheduling, they do our planning, 464 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 5: They tell us when we can eat. I mean, that's 465 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 5: how much they control our lives. And these people were 466 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 5: caught up in corruption, using the influence that they had 467 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 5: of their office to make sure that they can get 468 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 5: contracts and solicit money. That is how bad it is 469 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 5: in California that all the way up to the governor's 470 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 5: office we have a verified, convicted case of corruption. And 471 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,159 Speaker 5: what my bill, maybe fifteen sixty did was make a 472 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 5: declaration that you are not welcome into the halls of 473 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 5: government here in the state of California if you have 474 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 5: been charged and convicted of public corruption. Now, I was 475 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 5: forced to take some amendments on that bill because I 476 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 5: wanted it to be an indefinite man. They decided not 477 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 5: to do that. But we will work on that continuously. 478 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 5: And it's where I believe all forms of corruption, all 479 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,959 Speaker 5: forms of heavy felonies, you should not be able to 480 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 5: influence the government because you have been proven to be 481 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 5: a bad actor in this system. And so we wanted 482 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 5: to make sure that we were bringing accountability and safeguards 483 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,239 Speaker 5: back so that way the people could know that they 484 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 5: don't have a corrupt government. 485 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 3: And we're still working on that bill. 486 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 2: Trust is what we want and I think Democrats and 487 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 2: Republicans in the state should be forced to vote. I mean, 488 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 2: how could you not vote for that? That is the issue. 489 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 2: But some Democrats will vote against it, I'm sure Assemblement 490 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 2: in our final moments here with you. This brings on 491 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 2: the next topic, which is the Assembly attempt to try 492 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 2: to stop Nick Shirley and independent journalists from exposing this 493 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 2: fraud and they are trying to make it very difficult 494 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 2: for these people who I think are doing the best 495 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 2: work out there to uncover some of the fraud rings 496 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 2: that they might be a part of. And it even 497 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 2: goes back to Mia Banta, your colleague in the Assembly, 498 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 2: who happens to be the wife of the Attorney General, 499 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 2: who says he's serious about cracking down on fraud. Where 500 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 2: does this stand today? Assemblymen. 501 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 5: So this is what people need to know when they're 502 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 5: arguing with people like this, is that this is the 503 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 5: worst toxic relationship you could possibly imagine. And so when 504 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 5: it comes to the Stop to Make Sureley Act, they're 505 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 5: trying to tell us that no, it's not we're not 506 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 5: doing anything, that all we're doing is expanding a program 507 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 5: called Safe at Home, which is supposed to hide the 508 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 5: address to make sure that workers feel safe at home. 509 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 5: What they don't tell you is all of the expansions 510 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 5: that they add to a good program and say, well, 511 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 5: now you're just you know, you're weaponizing this whole thing. 512 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 5: They make it to where they can give a penalty 513 00:26:54,359 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 5: to anybody that actually records a nonprofit organization, any organization 514 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 5: that's deemed protected by the Attorney General, which is also 515 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 5: the author of the bill's husband. And then they name 516 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 5: all of that stuff and just call it Immigration Support Services. 517 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 3: So this is where. 518 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 5: They're really lying and getting around it. That bill has 519 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 5: passed the Assembly, it is now going to the Senate. 520 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 3: And here's the question that people really need to see. 521 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 5: They know that there is fraud and waste and corruption 522 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 5: in our government. And instead of passing bills to root 523 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 5: out the fraud, the waste and going after those people, 524 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 5: the only bill the majority in California is passing is 525 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 5: making it harder to videotape those. 526 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 2: Ridiculous I know it's ridiculous. We're out of time, but 527 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 2: Assemblyman David Tongkapa, thank you so much for being with us. 528 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 2: Follow him at David ton Gyapa. It's a Scott Jenning show. 529 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: We're leftist narratives go to die. This is the Scott 530 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: Jenning Show. 531 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us.

You can find 536 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 2: me Jennifer Horn on ex Jennifer Horn Radio, on Instagram 537 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 2: and Facebook. And I cannot believe I am saying this, 538 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 2: but Hunter Biden, Where's hunta He's back in the news 539 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 2: once again, and that is because, as Axios described it today, 540 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 2: he's staging a reinvention in politics. He's attempting to charm 541 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 2: and disarm internetrolls who saw some pretty bad stuff. We 542 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 2: all saw some pretty bad stuff. We saw more of 543 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden than maybe some of us have seen of 544 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 2: our closest friends, relatives and left ones. You've seen a 545 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 2: lot of Hunter Biden, a lot of pictures. We've heard 546 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 2: a lot about his bad behavior. Well, it seems that 547 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 2: he is now trying to revive his image. He even 548 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 2: went on and this is bizarre and did like a 549 00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 2: two hour interview with Candae Owens. Okay, so he's out 550 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 2: there trying to talk to people on the right. He's 551 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 2: out there trying to revitalize himself, get back into the news. 552 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 2: His mom, well stepmom, doctor Jill Biden, of course, has 553 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 2: that book out. Joe Biden's been out there a little 554 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 2: bit there. Biden family is kind of resurging again, apparently 555 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 2: by the way Candice Owen's apologized and admitted to treating 556 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 2: Biden as a caricature rather than as a person, and 557 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 2: Biden replied, it means the world how emotional and touching. 558 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 2: Isn't that sweet? Well, yesterday at the White House, President 559 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 2: Trump was asked about whether or not Hunter Biden could 560 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 2: run for the presidency in twenty twenty eight got twenty eight. 561 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 3: How would he do? 562 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 5: Hunter Bidens in a twenty twenty eight? 563 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 7: What you would think that, you know, past has something 564 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 7: to do with winning an election, and I would say 565 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 7: his past is not the greatest. Where's Hunter? I remember 566 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 7: my Where's Hunter became the number one shirt anywhere in 567 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 7: the world for about three weeks. I'm not gonna say, Pat, 568 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 7: I'm sure you know, Hey, if the guy from Maine 569 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 7: can do well, I guess Hunter could do well too. 570 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 7: Because the guy from Maine is a basket case. And 571 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 7: I would say worse than him is the one from 572 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 7: Texas that looks like alfredy Newman. I would say that 573 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 7: if he can do well, maybe Hunter can do well. 574 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is Graham Platner in Maine. That he is 575 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 2: talking about, the man with the Nazi tattoo, and James Talerico, 576 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 2: the guy in Texas who thinks that there's multiple genders, 577 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 2: and I don't know he's running his vegan campaign. He's 578 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 2: a strange man for the Senate race for sure. Now 579 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 2: let's talk about Graham Platner because he has done some 580 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 2: interviews trying to explain himself. He's really trying to save himself. 581 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 2: Because he knows that he's on his way out of 582 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 2: this race. Susan Collins, by the way, must be loving life. 583 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 2: She is the incumbent senator from Maine. She doesn't really 584 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 2: make Republicans happy, she doesn't really make Democrats happy, but 585 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: at least she's not this cut fourteen. 586 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 10: You refer to the tattoo as my totten kumf, which 587 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 10: is the German word for this particular Nazi symbol. There's 588 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 10: other reporting and Jewish Inside Are in October in which 589 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 10: an anonymous acquaintance says he used that same phrase. Did 590 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 10: you know what this tattoo was about before last October 591 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 10: when you said you first became. 592 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:25,959 Speaker 13: Aware of it? 593 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: No? 594 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 13: I did not. And I also think it's important to 595 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 13: note that it's very likely and I think that she 596 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 13: is that same source. She's the person who's been telling 597 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 13: people this from the beginning. And it's a so I 598 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 13: feel like, you know, we're kind of rehashing the thing 599 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 13: we've been through. 600 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 2: All right. That was a grand Platner on MS now 601 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 2: and basically again denying that he knew he had a 602 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 2: Nazi tattoo on his chest. Now, that means one of 603 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 2: two things. Either you have a really bad substance abuse 604 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 2: from and you're out there getting tattoos willy nilly, or 605 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 2: or you are a Nazi. Those are the two things 606 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 2: that meets one or the other. You either pick that 607 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 2: tattoo knowingly or you're so drunk that you don't know 608 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 2: and you wake up one day and then immediately look 609 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 2: at your test and go, I better get that thing 610 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 2: covered up fast. He did not do any of those things, 611 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 2: and now he's blaming this woman he had a relationship with, 612 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 2: calling her a gop operative. Look at gop operative. Did 613 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 2: not make him write anti Semitic things. It did not 614 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 2: make him write racist things. It did not make him 615 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 2: treat women poorly, It did not make him go on 616 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: kick and send nasty pictures to people that might have 617 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 2: been underage. Didn't make him do any of those things. 618 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 2: So I would say Graham Platner has to look in 619 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 2: the mirror and decide what's best for him. But here's 620 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 2: my message to Republicans, stop trying to drive this guy 621 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 2: out of the race. They're trying fast. Democrats are now 622 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 2: going to try to get him out of the race. 623 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 2: Give a break to Susan Collins. She may not be 624 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 2: the greatest but she's a Republican and she votes with 625 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 2: us some of the time. So you know what, if 626 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 2: this is who Democrats want to try to twist their 627 00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 2: souls to vote for, let them do it. Only one 628 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 2: on talk radio telling you to just let this guy 629 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 2: stay in the race. But let you know, if this 630 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 2: is the best Democrats can do by all means, let's 631 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 2: watch and pop our popcorn and see how they can 632 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 2: convince themselves that it is okay to vote for this 633 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 2: guy because they hate Trump. I'm Jennifer Horn. There's more 634 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 2: up ahead. This is the Scott Jenning Show. 635 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: If the leftist haven't had enough yet, there's more.

I host Some Morning 640 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 2: Answer on Salem Radio in Los Angeles AM eight seventy 641 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 2: AM five ninety the Answer, and happy to be filling 642 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 2: in for my friend Scott, who will be back with 643 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 2: you on Mondays back next week now. Speaking of Los Angeles, 644 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 2: just off the shore of California, the Secretary of Energy, 645 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 2: excuse me, the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary 646 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 2: of Energy Chris Right. They well, they had a little 647 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 2: meeting today to talk about Gavin Newsom's policies and what 648 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 2: the Trump administration is doing to get around them. Take 649 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 2: a listen. This is Doug Burgham from earlier today, cut 650 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 2: twenty five. 651 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,720 Speaker 4: Everybody needs to know in California, the reason you're paying 652 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 4: more for gasoline than anybody else in the lower forty 653 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 4: eight more for diesel is because of the state policies. 654 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 4: It's not because of some war overseas. It's because of 655 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 4: the policies of that the state of California has, and 656 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 4: of course it's just going to get worse. They're regulating 657 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 4: refineries out of existence. There used to be forty refineries 658 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 4: in California. Then it was eight, then seven, then six. 659 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 4: They're putting so much pressure. So California not only imports, 660 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 4: as Chris said, sixty percent of their oil from foreign countries. 661 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 4: That is a absolute national security risk. The number one 662 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,919 Speaker 4: importer into California on February first of this year, twenty 663 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 4: twenty six was a RAQ. So California has a policy. 664 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 4: They've turned themselves into an energy desert and energy island. 665 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 2: That was a Secretary Doug Burgham Secretary of the Interior, 666 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 2: talking about the problems that California faces because of our 667 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 2: reliance on foreign oil when we have a whole plethora 668 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 2: of resources right here in our state and in this country. 669 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 2: Thought it would be a great day to talk to 670 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 2: my friend Mark Morano is here. He is the editor 671 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 2: in chief of Climate Depot, which you should check out 672 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,280 Speaker 2: all the time for all the latest news at Climate 673 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 2: Depot is where you can find him on X and Mark, 674 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 2: it is great to see you, Thanks so much for 675 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 2: joining us, and welcome to the Scott Jennings Show. 676 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 14: Thank you, thanks a lot, Jennifer, happy to be on. 677 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 2: All right, So you heard from Secretary Berghram right there 678 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 2: criticizing the policies of Governor Gavin Newsom. And this is 679 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 2: part of the Trump administration's policy to start unleashing our energy, 680 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 2: our natural resources, our own oil so that we're not 681 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 2: dependent on all these other countries. What do you make 682 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 2: of that? It's on federal properties offshore, so it's not 683 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 2: under Gavin Newsom's domain, but there will be some pushback. 684 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 14: What's funny is if we're a little further offshore, closer 685 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 14: to China, Gavin Newsom would have no problem with the 686 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,720 Speaker 14: low environmental standards of China and no problem importing that energy, 687 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 14: because in the end, what Gavin Newsom's all about is 688 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 14: an accounting trick on paper to say, look, we're trying 689 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 14: to achieve net zero. Well, they outsourced most of their 690 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 14: energy from foreign nations. It's completely bonkers. Just to give you, 691 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 14: and Doug Bergan went through the list, but forty refineries 692 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 14: in California down to eight, down to six two with 693 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 14: the two most recent leaving. He has run California energy 694 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 14: policy as imposing Soviet style quotas on the entire energy grid. 695 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 14: It's because of policies against gas powered cars, against the 696 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 14: policies against offshore drilling, against all kinds of policies against 697 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 14: on the energy extraction on land. We saw the way 698 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 14: they have fires and the rebuilding have been handled. California 699 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 14: is a cluster f under this under his administration, in 700 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,919 Speaker 14: most of the California governors of recent years. And this 701 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 14: is what the federal government is now being forced to 702 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 14: essentially invoke, you know, wartime powers to try to overcome this. 703 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 14: And he said something else that was incredibly important. This 704 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,240 Speaker 14: is a national security risk when you look at the 705 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 14: military airports in California when you look at the strategic 706 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 14: location on the coastline and you have a state that 707 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 14: is just literally going around and stifling off energy and 708 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 14: making it more reliant on international sources of energy. And 709 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 14: by the way, he loves to think of himself Newsome 710 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 14: as ahead of state. He's met with the Chinese premier 711 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 14: essentially signing California and China climate agreements when California is 712 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,919 Speaker 14: not even its own nation state, which, by the way, 713 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 14: I live in Virginia. Be happy to see California seceed 714 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,279 Speaker 14: if you guys ever want to push that and you know, 715 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 14: leave the United States. But sorry, but that's it's irrelevant. 716 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 2: But you're going to have to be a spare bedroom 717 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 2: then Mark if that is. If that's the case, I 718 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 2: don't want to fall off into the ocean. Well, you know, 719 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 2: you make some great points. And for people who are 720 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 2: not familiar, you've been doing this for a long time 721 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 2: at Climate Depot kind of tamping down. I mean President 722 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 2: Trump calls it the green New Scale, But you've been 723 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 2: talking about how environmentalists have been running not just the 724 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 2: state of California, but the government for a long time, 725 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 2: making these ridiculous decisions for problems that they are in 726 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 2: many ways manufacturing. And the Trump administration has been coming 727 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 2: in there, and yesterday this announcement a seven hundred million 728 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 2: dollar investment in coal plants. That's enough to have environmentalists, 729 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 2: you know, getting into a bunker and hiding out. But 730 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 2: this is the way that America can unleash our own 731 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 2: energy and our own prosperity. 732 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 14: Right absolutely, when you're talking about national security, the number 733 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 14: one issue is domestic energy supply. And by the way, 734 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 14: the number one energy supply for national security happens to 735 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 14: be coal. And secondly coal, the United States has the 736 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 14: largest reserve of coal in the world, where the Saudia 737 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 14: Arabia of coal and President Trump just yesterday as well 738 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,359 Speaker 14: with Doug Bergham, announced that they're going to be doing 739 00:38:55,600 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 14: a Wartime Production Act invoking an old Cold War Cold 740 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 14: War era law that's essentially going to revitalize coal. Now, 741 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 14: remember we dealt with under Obiden and Obiden. There you 742 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 14: go over Obahama and Biden. We dealt with twelve years 743 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 14: of the war on coal, and we have you know, 744 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,320 Speaker 14: even at one point the EPA director under President Biden 745 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 14: actually said there's no war on coal. And behind her 746 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 14: she had a poster celebrating the war on coal and 747 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 14: stopping coal. So that is one of the biggest things is, 748 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,439 Speaker 14: you know, national security. And the big thing about coal, 749 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 14: which is what President Trump is doing to try to 750 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 14: bypass things that Gavin Newsom is doing, is that coal 751 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 14: is not subject to a global price like oil. We 752 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 14: can drill as much oil as we want. Unless the 753 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 14: US government nationalizes our oil industry, We're still going to 754 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 14: be subject to the global oil market price. So if 755 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 14: there's conflict Middle East oil goes up. Coal does not 756 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 14: have that problem. And so President Trump recognizes that. Doc 757 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 14: Bergham recognizes that, Chris Wright recognizes that. Leezeld in the 758 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 14: EPA recognizes that. 759 00:39:58,280 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 2: And we have the most pro. 760 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 14: I shouldn't even say pro America pro friendly, but this 761 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 14: is the most pro energy administration in the history of 762 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 14: the country. 763 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 2: You know how bad it is. 764 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 14: CNN was forced to admit that the US is now 765 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 14: drilling more oil than any country in the history of 766 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 14: the planet. And that's despite Gavin Newsom's best effort as 767 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 14: the largest state to try to stop that. 768 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,399 Speaker 2: It's just amazing and just switching gears for a second too. 769 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 2: You know, we have this war of affordability that Democrats 770 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 2: have tried to launch against President Trump and started. We 771 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 2: started the show last hour with the new jobs Report, 772 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 2: which has been incredible to see the u turns on 773 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 2: energy that the Trump administration has made from the Biden administration. 774 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:46,240 Speaker 2: Talk to us about what you think the gas prices 775 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 2: will do. Do you see them coming down? I know 776 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 2: for the midterms we want them to. This conflict in 777 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 2: Iran going longer than I think the President is comfortable 778 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 2: with this moment, in our final moment, how do you 779 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 2: see gas prices turning around as we go into the summer. 780 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 2: Do you are they going to continue to go up? 781 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 14: Well, it's all the pens, that's the answer to that. 782 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 14: I think they have dropped recently. Surprisingly. It all comes 783 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 14: down to the straight of war moves. If we can 784 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 14: get that straight open and we can get the flow 785 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,760 Speaker 14: of well even just the announcement. I shouldn't say the announcement, 786 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 14: because how many times have we announced that it's open. Even 787 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 14: once the ships start flowing and we get back to 788 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 14: pre war levels, I think because oil is a speculative 789 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 14: futures market, the price could come down almost immediately. Now 790 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 14: getting back down all the way could take some months. 791 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 14: I don't know even if the war is straight of 792 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 14: war moves and open tomorrow, if it would be lower 793 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 14: than it was. But I think we could go a 794 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 14: long way seventy five percent drop, but we have to 795 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 14: get the straight of hoar moves open. Without the straight 796 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 14: of war moves to say, we keep in the stalemate, 797 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 14: I think it's looking very grim to have any substantial 798 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 14: changes in the oil now. I will say that one 799 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:50,760 Speaker 14: of the things you'll see a lot of these energy 800 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 14: analysts predicting gloom and doom. Oh, the infrastructure of Kuwait, 801 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,400 Speaker 14: Saudi Arabia and the United airb Emirates has been damaged. 802 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 14: It's going to take seven years. These are some of 803 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 14: the wealthiest countries in the history of the planet, right 804 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 14: and they're going to have means, motive and opportunity to 805 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 14: literally invest everything and throw all of their resources at 806 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 14: rebuilding everything and getting the oil infrastructure back up and running. 807 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 14: So I think all those you know, those predictions are pessimistic. 808 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 14: The only thing that's stopping us right now is the 809 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 14: strain of our moves has to be reopened. Okay, That's 810 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 14: that's my message. And once that happens, I think this 811 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 14: issue like melts away. 812 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: It's unleashed, and I think everything else at President Trump 813 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 2: has done for the economy will start to feel it 814 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 2: as that happens.

I'm Jennifer 827 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 2: horn happy to be sitting in for my friend Scott Jennings. 828 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 2: He will be back with you next week. Follow him 829 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 2: in the meantime at Jennings Show. Now, I love the 830 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 2: story of a good hypocrite. And you know, guys, everybody 831 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,360 Speaker 2: has been a little hypocritical in their lives. I have, 832 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 2: you have, everybody has, but it's different when you have 833 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 2: a public form, and it's different when you spent a 834 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 2: lot of time clutching your pearls about a certain issue 835 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,800 Speaker 2: and then you get caught Seattle, which has turned into 836 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,959 Speaker 2: a I mean, it's always been the wild wild West 837 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 2: of liberalism, but now it seems like it's just a 838 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 2: lunatic factory up in the Pacific Northwest. The mayor of Seattle, 839 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 2: and it's a gorgeous city, one of my favorites. But 840 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:54,759 Speaker 2: the Seattle Mayor, Katie Wilson, last year urged residents to 841 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 2: boycott's Starbucks. Now, look conservatives of boycotted Starbucks before they 842 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 2: were coffee bean and tea leaf all the way. I 843 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 2: don't know. I don't get too involved with these boycotts 844 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 2: unless they really are offensive. But the mayor wanted her 845 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,799 Speaker 2: residence of Seattle to boycott Starbucks. A big deal since 846 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 2: Starbucks is from Seattle and Seattle like they're the coffee 847 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 2: culture and the coffee capital of the country. Well, she 848 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 2: asked her residence to boycott, but then guess what she 849 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 2: got caught walking into Starbucks buying her latte. Now, she 850 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 2: hasn't commented on whether or not she thinks the boycott 851 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 2: should continue, but she did just admit that she had 852 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 2: the pleasure of visiting the Pike Place Market Starbucks and 853 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 2: she ordered a blueberry muffin latte, which was a staff creation. 854 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 2: A boy She's a Foo food drinker. She did an 855 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 2: interview that was published this week on a local Fox 856 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:56,799 Speaker 2: affiliate there, and the anchor asked if she is still 857 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,919 Speaker 2: supporting the boycott of Starbucks. She said, quote, I guess 858 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:03,839 Speaker 2: I broke my own boycott, and yeah, but I don't 859 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 2: know what do you want me to say about that. 860 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 2: I want you to say you were thirsty, Katie. That's 861 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,839 Speaker 2: what I would like you to say, because you ask 862 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 2: people to do silly boycott's for silly reasons, and then 863 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:17,320 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, you're thirsty, you need a blueberry 864 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 2: muffin latte, and you have to go into that Starbucks. 865 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 2: Then you get caught. So apparently she was upset because 866 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 2: Starbucks was not gonna do union support. She wanted to 867 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 2: support a unionizing of the Starbucks in her area. She 868 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:34,919 Speaker 2: declared that the boycott would begin last summer. She saw 869 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,280 Speaker 2: the barista picket line, she said, I'm not buying Starbucks, 870 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 2: you should neither, to the Seattle Time. So well, now 871 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 2: she has changed her mind. Isn't it funny how leftis 872 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 2: do this? The hypocrisy can be seen all over the place, 873 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 2: not just in Seattle, not just here in California, but 874 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. Where Alexandria Ocasio Cortez also has 875 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 2: shown herself to be a bit of a hypocrite. Cut nineteen. 876 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:02,799 Speaker 12: If you're reported Platner in this New York Times article traffic. 877 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 5: A little bit of rooth of being physically Yeah. 878 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 8: I mean, as you all know, this all kind of 879 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,840 Speaker 8: just came out. I've been doing legislay of business on 880 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,840 Speaker 8: the floor, so I need to dig into everything further 881 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 8: before commenting on it. Yeah, because I think this reporting 882 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 8: just recently came out, So I just want to make 883 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 8: sure that I'm fully read up office for I. 884 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,479 Speaker 2: Commented generally about Platter. Are you concerned by what you've 885 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 2: seen so far? Does he offer voters more? 886 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 10: Does he need to offer voters more of an istallation? 887 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 8: I mean, again, I think I have to read up 888 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 8: on this latest reporting. You know, I think everyone when 889 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 8: we run for office, our responsibilities to our constituents and 890 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 8: to the people of for me in New York fourteen 891 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 8: in this case, for the people of Maine. 892 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 2: Just drink the coffee. AOC, just like Katie Miller. She 893 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 2: just had to go into that Starbucks. The draw was 894 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,280 Speaker 2: too strong. That's exactly what we're going to see with AOC. 895 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 2: AOC is going to have to figure out a way 896 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 2: that she votes for Graham Platner if he is the nominee, 897 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 2: because she couldn't dare vote for one of those big 898 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,439 Speaker 2: bad Republicans. Right all right, Now, here's how you call 899 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 2: out the hypocrisy. One of my favorite cabinet secretaries in 900 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 2: the Trump administration, Scott bessnt Well, he went after Senator 901 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 2: Wide and take a listen. Cut twenty. 902 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 15: Senator Wyden has mendaciously slandered the Treasury Building in an 903 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 15: attempt to cover up his son having an investment meeting 904 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 15: with Jeffrey Epstein to ask for funding. 905 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: Thank you, thanks, Chairman. 906 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 6: Yes, let's be clear here, nobody is interested in the 907 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 6: ramblings of a capo in the most corrupt regime in 908 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:52,239 Speaker 6: American history. 909 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 2: Okay, wait, actually yes we are interested. Does your son 910 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 2: have ties to Jeffrey Epstein Senator, because that's what I 911 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 2: think we want to know. You can't say we don't 912 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:04,920 Speaker 2: have interest in Epstein. Everybody's had interest in Epstein. Are 913 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 2: you kidding me? Everybody has. You guys were dying for 914 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 2: those papers and the reports to be leaked out, and 915 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 2: now you don't care because Trump. Oh yeah, YEI. This 916 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 2: is the hypocrisy of the left. So you know what, 917 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 2: let's call him out for drinking the coffee and for 918 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 2: supporting Nazis and being crazy. I'm Jennifer Horn. This is 919 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:24,399 Speaker 2: the Scott Jetting Show. 920 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: Klee leftist arguments with truth and common sense. They hate 921 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 1: that this is a Scott Jenny show. 922 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 2: They sure do. Common sense doesn't last long on the 923 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 2: left in this country. But we're glad to have you 924 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 2: where we deliver common sense to the American people. This 925 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 2: is the Scott Jenning Show. I'm Jennifer Horn. Happy to 926 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 2: be filling in for Scott. He'll be back with you 927 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,359 Speaker 2: next week. In the meantime, it is time to check 928 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 2: in with a friend of mine. Congressman Kevin Kylie has 929 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 2: a very interesting story to tell. He represents California's third 930 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 2: district in the United States House of Representatives and Congressman Kylie. 931 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 2: Welcome in to this Scott Jennings show. Great to have 932 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 2: you here, great to be with you. 933 00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 12: Thanks, thanks for having me. 934 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 2: So let's talk about the attempt to well they did 935 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:13,720 Speaker 2: registrict California. I think it could still be challenged because 936 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 2: there is no way that you could argue it was 937 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 2: not redistricted using race as part of the criteria. But 938 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 2: you've been a thorn in the side of Gavin Newsom, 939 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:25,560 Speaker 2: I think it is fair to say, and he definitely 940 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,280 Speaker 2: he and his team were looking at your congressional district 941 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:30,799 Speaker 2: as one that they'd love to knock out and give 942 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 2: to Democrats. And you did something really interesting. You changed 943 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 2: your party preference, no party preference. You're an independent by 944 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 2: all accounts. Tell us how you did it and give 945 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 2: us the results because you had a big win this week, 946 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:42,360 Speaker 2: my friend. 947 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,319 Speaker 12: Yeah, so we made a little bit of history in 948 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,120 Speaker 12: this new six sixth the district in California. And you're 949 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:54,200 Speaker 12: absolutely right. Gavin Newsom has been targeting me in every 950 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 12: way possible. Even last election in twenty twenty four, his 951 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 12: own staff member ran against me, although we run by 952 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 12: forty five thousand votes, and so that didn't work out. 953 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 12: So well for him, So you know, he ended up 954 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 12: jerrymandering the map in California. But you know, it's just 955 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 12: a testament to the hubris of politicians who engage in 956 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,839 Speaker 12: jerrymandering that they think they can just, you know, move 957 00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 12: the lines around on the map and pick your representative 958 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,919 Speaker 12: for you. But the voters in my area have something 959 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 12: else in mind. You know, they're not going to let 960 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 12: political insiders choose their representative for them. So in this primary, 961 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 12: as the results are right now, I'm in first place. 962 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 12: This will be history making for an independent to advance 963 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,800 Speaker 12: in first place in a California primary, and we fully 964 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 12: intend to make history again this November. 965 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 2: I think it's incredible. And here's what's even more of 966 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 2: an interesting piece. You had a Republican and a Democrat 967 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 2: running against you, and it's neck and neck right now. 968 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 2: We don't know how this thing will go, but the 969 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 2: last time I checked, the Republican was ahead by just 970 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 2: a bit. And so wouldn't it be interesting if Gavin 971 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 2: Newsen wanted to get a conservative out of that spot. 972 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 2: If it's Kevin Kylie, Who's and i'll use air quotes here, 973 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,400 Speaker 2: an independent and then a Republican challenger, Well, Gavin Newsom 974 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 2: has double fs on that attempt to redistrict Republicans out 975 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 2: of a seat. 976 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:15,480 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, from the way I see it, no 977 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 12: matter who my opponent is in November, we're planning to win, 978 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 12: and so I fully, you know, intend to overcome this 979 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 12: attempt to deprive our area of representation, regardless of who 980 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 12: the opponent is. And it is true that, you know, 981 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 12: in California's top two system, you know, you can get 982 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 12: all kinds of different possibilities. We'll see how the late 983 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 12: vote counting goes. You know, it's crazy in California. We 984 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 12: still have probably roughly half the votes to count in 985 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 12: my district. The election was three days ago. But we'll 986 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 12: see how the remaining count goes. But we're confident that 987 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 12: I'm going to advance to the top two. 988 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 2: Let's talk about that, because the slow counting makes people 989 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 2: lose faith in the system. President Trump has already been 990 00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 2: talking about this. He says California could be up to 991 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,760 Speaker 2: the funny busin and this again. Steve Hilton, gubernatorial candidate, 992 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:06,239 Speaker 2: is having a press conference today dealing with this. We 993 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,799 Speaker 2: look like the laughing stock of the nation. And it's 994 00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 2: not new to us. We've dealt with this for the 995 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,720 Speaker 2: last several election cycles, waiting and waiting and waiting thirty 996 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 2: seven days till election results are certified. What are you doing? 997 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,239 Speaker 2: I know you're looking into into trying to create some 998 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 2: legislation that make this go faster. What are you up to, Congressman? 999 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 12: Yeah, exactly, And you're right, it is so embarrassing for 1000 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 12: our state. And it's not just me saying it. It's 1001 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 12: people on all sides who are watching this nationally and saying, 1002 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 12: what in the world is wrong with California Where their 1003 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:38,800 Speaker 12: state politicians can even manage to do the most simple 1004 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 12: administrative task of a democracy, which is to count fos, 1005 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 12: and it has all kinds of negative ramifications. It erodes 1006 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 12: trust in the process, that creates instability and uncertainty. And yes, 1007 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 12: it's just embarrassing for our state. And by the way, 1008 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 12: you know, those who are in charge in California, they'll say, oh, no, no, 1009 00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 12: this is about voter access, this is about voter integrity 1010 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 12: or what have you. Then why is it that every 1011 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,320 Speaker 12: single other state manages to account their votes in the timeily, 1012 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 12: whether it's a Democrat state like Massachusetts or Republican state 1013 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,320 Speaker 12: like Florida. They get the results on election night. So 1014 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 12: it's not a Democrat Republican thing. It's just the unique 1015 00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 12: incompetence of California state government. So we have a bill 1016 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:18,320 Speaker 12: that we've introduced in the House called the Election Results 1017 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 12: Accountability Act, which simply says, enough is enough. You know 1018 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 12: you got to count your votes in a timely fashion. 1019 00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's really ridiculous. I was talking to 1020 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 2: Steve Hilton earlier today on the morning show that I 1021 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 2: host in Los Angeles, and he was saying that there's 1022 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:34,399 Speaker 2: a county in California, venture a county where they only 1023 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 2: have like eighty thousand plus votes to count and they're 1024 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 2: not even going to be releasing another number drop until Tuesday. 1025 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 2: Today's Friday. Those are the kinds of things where you go, okay, 1026 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 2: is it staffing issues? Obviously another piece of this is 1027 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 2: that we accept ballots that were postmarked on election day 1028 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,320 Speaker 2: for seven days after. So this is why I think 1029 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,320 Speaker 2: when we talk about the low number of voter turnout 1030 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 2: and low turnout elections, people lose faith and they just say, 1031 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 2: I'm not going to do it. I don't trust the system. 1032 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,879 Speaker 12: Well, sure, I think that it does breed distrust when 1033 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:11,080 Speaker 12: people exercise their right as a citizen to vote, carry 1034 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 12: out their civic duty, and then they expect to learn 1035 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 12: what happened to be able to find out who won. 1036 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 12: Then it's one person who's ahead on election night, and 1037 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 12: then maybe it changes multiple times over the course of 1038 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,239 Speaker 12: the next month. You know, people have moved on with 1039 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 12: their lives and then suddenly they get to find out, 1040 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,799 Speaker 12: you know, a month after they vote, Oh, by the way, 1041 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,680 Speaker 12: this is who won. And think about a perspective of 1042 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 12: the candidates. If you're at a close race, you're basically 1043 00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 12: going through torture. I mean, you have one result on 1044 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:40,200 Speaker 12: election night, and then maybe every few days you get 1045 00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:44,399 Speaker 12: these incremental updates over the course of the next several weeks, wondering, okay, 1046 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 12: am I going to be a city councilor or a 1047 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 12: school board member, or a state legislator or a member 1048 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 12: of Congress. Do I need to start organizing my staff 1049 00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:54,240 Speaker 12: and training and going to orientation and all of these things. 1050 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 12: I mean, it's just nuts. It is a failure of 1051 00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 12: government performance at the most basic. 1052 00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 2: Level on a whole. I want to ask you about 1053 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 2: what you are going to be focusing on in the 1054 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 2: next few months in Congress. I know we'll have some 1055 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 2: breaks going on, certainly, but there is a real challenge 1056 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 2: I think for Republicans, you're an independent now to message 1057 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,919 Speaker 2: some of the successes that have happened over the last 1058 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 2: two years. Democrats are still touting this message of affordability. 1059 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 2: I think you look at the job numbers, you look 1060 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,719 Speaker 2: at where the economy is. I don't think that we 1061 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 2: are having an economic crisis. We need to get gas 1062 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:33,000 Speaker 2: prices down, certainly, but I think people are starting to 1063 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 2: feel it. I think Democrats might need more What do 1064 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 2: you think the balance of power looks like as we 1065 00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 2: move into this midterm cycle into November. 1066 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:44,439 Speaker 12: Well, I do think that making life more affordable needs 1067 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:48,399 Speaker 12: to be the central focus. And that is particularly true, 1068 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 12: as you know, Jen, for those of us in California, 1069 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,880 Speaker 12: sure where we have the highest cost of living in 1070 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,840 Speaker 12: the entire country. So we're talking about highest gas prices 1071 00:55:56,840 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 12: in the country by far, highest electricity rates. We're in 1072 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 12: the top three when it comes to groceries and housing 1073 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:08,560 Speaker 12: and water. So if you're in California, then life is 1074 00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 12: a lot more unaffordable than if you're in any other state. 1075 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:13,839 Speaker 12: Which is not to minimize the struggles that people are 1076 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:17,320 Speaker 12: experiencing elsewhere. But it's to say that actually, the most 1077 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,799 Speaker 12: high impact thing that I can do as a Member 1078 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,880 Speaker 12: of Congress from California is to try to counteract some 1079 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,120 Speaker 12: of the policies in our state that have caused the 1080 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 12: cost of living to explode. So, for example, I have 1081 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 12: a bill to cap how high the state's gas tax 1082 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 12: can be, saying that there's no reason that any state 1083 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,600 Speaker 12: should have to have a gas tax over fifty cents. 1084 00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 2: As ours in California goes up, it's going up again 1085 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,799 Speaker 2: in July. 1086 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:40,879 Speaker 12: It's going up for two more cents. 1087 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 3: So this would actually put a cap and. 1088 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:43,879 Speaker 12: It would give an immediate really to and it would 1089 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 12: prevent politicians in California from raising the price of gas 1090 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 12: again or expanding domestic energy or for example, you know, 1091 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,279 Speaker 12: the Newsom had a ban on gas power cars that 1092 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 12: I introduced a bill verse and we actually got that 1093 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 12: passed with bipartisan support and signed in the I that's 1094 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,880 Speaker 12: gone away. People can drive the car of their choice. 1095 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 12: There's a lot we could do. There's more we could 1096 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,479 Speaker 12: do at the federal level as well. We did pass 1097 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 12: a bipartisan housing bill that will help with housing affordability. 1098 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 12: Of course, the tax relief that was passed is going 1099 00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:17,840 Speaker 12: to be particularly beneficial to Californians because we quadrupled the 1100 00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:20,919 Speaker 12: state and local tax deduction in addition to increasing things 1101 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:24,680 Speaker 12: like the child tax credit, the adoption tax credit, and 1102 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 12: making Social Security tax free for most seniors. So these 1103 00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:32,160 Speaker 12: are really important things from an affordability perspective. But certainly, 1104 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 12: you know, folks are continuing to struggle and we need 1105 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 12: to address it in every way we can. 1106 00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:40,479 Speaker 2: So as a government governing body, what are the House 1107 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 2: of Representatives going to be working on in the next 1108 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 2: Is there anything that they're going to be pushing for 1109 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,800 Speaker 2: before the November midterms or is this pretty much just 1110 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 2: stay low, start working and get yourself re elected. 1111 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:53,920 Speaker 12: Well, there's actually a lot on our plate. I mean, 1112 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 12: we've got the annual appropriations bills. We just make one 1113 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 12: of them last night, dealing with agriculture. There's the issue 1114 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:05,400 Speaker 12: of FAISA that continues to be you know, contentious, where 1115 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 12: there's a balance between national security and civil liberties concerns. 1116 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 12: There's the issue of border funding, and the housing bill 1117 00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:18,240 Speaker 12: still needs to be finalized between the House and the Senate. 1118 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 12: And then I think there's a lot of other legislation 1119 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:23,200 Speaker 12: that we really ought ought to move forward. I've got 1120 00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:25,840 Speaker 12: bills that I'm working on related to education. I'm the 1121 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 12: chair of the K twelve Education Subcommittee. I mentioned this 1122 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 12: election reform bill that would speed up vote counting in California, 1123 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 12: bills like the Lower Gas Tax Production Act that I've introduced, 1124 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,520 Speaker 12: in addition to a number of others. So I think that, 1125 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,920 Speaker 12: you know, there's plenty that we can do, even within 1126 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 12: the relatively condensed timeframe in an election year. And the 1127 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,240 Speaker 12: way I see it, you know, we can't afford to 1128 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,480 Speaker 12: waste any day that we have the opportunity to, especially 1129 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 12: for you know, those of us in California when there's 1130 00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:56,560 Speaker 12: so much wrong with the direction of our state. So 1131 00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:59,520 Speaker 12: anything that I can do to counteract that here, I think, 1132 00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 12: you know, I want to make sure I take advantage 1133 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 12: of it. 1134 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:04,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, actually actually getting some work done. Congressman Kevin Kylie 1135 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:08,400 Speaker 2: is with us. He represents California's third congressional district. You 1136 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 2: can follow him at Rep. Kylie. And in our final 1137 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:12,960 Speaker 2: moments here, I was very happy to see that the 1138 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:16,040 Speaker 2: Senate just funded CBP. They funded ICE through the end 1139 00:59:16,080 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 2: of Trump's term. That has been such a point of contention, 1140 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 2: especially in a state like California or any of the 1141 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 2: border states where you really see the fentanyl, the drugs 1142 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 2: and all of the issues that are still coming across 1143 00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 2: our border, even though the people have freely stopped, I mean, 1144 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:32,160 Speaker 2: that's slowed down, but certainly there are still cartels that 1145 00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 2: are running. And Congressman, this is really important that funding 1146 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:36,480 Speaker 2: means something. 1147 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 12: Well, it is important to recognize, as you just said, 1148 00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 12: that we have had a one hundred and eighty three 1149 00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,880 Speaker 12: turnaround at the border, and it's one of those things 1150 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,600 Speaker 12: where sort of, once the problem doesn't exist in the 1151 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 12: dramatic way that it did before, it kind of, you know, 1152 00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 12: is not on top of mind anymore. 1153 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 3: And so you know, we you know. 1154 00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 12: Tend to have short memories and forget what a crisis 1155 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 12: the border or was just a few years ago, where 1156 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,320 Speaker 12: you've had unprecedented numbers of people coming over, ten million, 1157 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 12: fus coming over, known terrorists coming over, human trafficking, unaccompanied children, fentanyl, 1158 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 12: and all the rest of it. So that has been 1159 01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 12: a major success of Congress and the administration is bringing 1160 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:22,880 Speaker 12: that essentially to a standstill now. It is rather unfortunate 1161 01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 12: that we have not been able to find bipartisan support 1162 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:30,760 Speaker 12: for an appropriations bill to provide funding going forward. I 1163 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 12: think that there's many that we and I'm one of them, 1164 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 12: that that should have been possible to do that, along 1165 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:41,160 Speaker 12: with having some common sense reforms to interior immigration enforcement 1166 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 12: that are supported by people on both sides of the aisle. 1167 01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 12: So I'm still hopeful in advocating for something like that 1168 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:46,720 Speaker 12: to come together. 1169 01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:50,480 Speaker 2: Well, we appreciate you and your fight for sure for 1170 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:54,040 Speaker 2: our state of California and the country. Representative Kevin Kylie 1171 01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 2: is with us. He represents California's third district. You can 1172 01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 2: give him a follow at Rep. Kylie. Congressman Kylie, thanks 1173 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 2: so much much for being with us.

Now a little 1185 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 2: bit of breaking news to share with you. President Trump's 1186 01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 2: envoys Steve Whitkoff and Jared Kushner have traveled to the 1187 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:42,280 Speaker 2: National Lab This sounds scary to me in Oakridge, Tennessee, 1188 01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 2: on Thursday for consultations with the team of technical experts 1189 01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:49,680 Speaker 2: that could play a role in nuclear negotiations with Iran. 1190 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 2: This is being reported today by Axios. The White House 1191 01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 2: is trying to reach a memorandum of understanding with Iran 1192 01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 2: to end the war and begin in depth nuclear negotiations 1193 01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 2: and wants to have experts at the ready should those 1194 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 2: talks be launched now as that is going on a 1195 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 2: potential peace deal between Iran and the United States. Hinges 1196 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,920 Speaker 2: on the Trump administration agreeing to release are you ready 1197 01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:19,440 Speaker 2: twenty four billion dollars in frozen Iranian assets, I'm going 1198 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 2: to say that's a no. I'm going to say, you know, 1199 01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 2: I know that's what they're going to want, and I 1200 01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,160 Speaker 2: know President Trump is going to have to be in 1201 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 2: a bad situation. But unless they hand over every bit 1202 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:31,760 Speaker 2: of nuclear matter. I don't know that you can start 1203 01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:36,320 Speaker 2: handing money back the Barack Obama days of filling up 1204 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:39,240 Speaker 2: a plane full of cash and then sending it to 1205 01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:41,120 Speaker 2: an Iran that just says, oh, yeah, we're not going 1206 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:42,920 Speaker 2: to have a nuke. Those days are over. We need 1207 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 2: to make sure that this is in Iran, who has 1208 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 2: been cut down if you're going to start to release 1209 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 2: these sanctions, and they're going to need the money because 1210 01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 2: the country of Iran has been bankrupted by all of 1211 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 2: the activities of the United States thanks to the United States. 1212 01:02:57,640 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 2: Now they want those assets released. According to a to 1213 01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 2: Operanian official, they warned that the US would enter into 1214 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:10,160 Speaker 2: a dark corridor should it resume fighting. What does that mean? 1215 01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:14,600 Speaker 2: A dark corridor? The negotiations, they say, are at a deadlock, 1216 01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 2: and President Trump must break the deadlock, according to the 1217 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,800 Speaker 2: Supreme Leader, well In, a military advisor to the Supreme Leader, 1218 01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:25,520 Speaker 2: he did an interview in Tehran saying that the ball 1219 01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 2: is in Trump's court. Iran repeatedly demanded the release of 1220 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:33,280 Speaker 2: twelve billion in frozen funds as soon as this introm 1221 01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:36,560 Speaker 2: agreement is signed with the US, and another twelve billion 1222 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:38,960 Speaker 2: at a later stage. How do you feel about that, 1223 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:44,360 Speaker 2: about this money being released for me, this is one 1224 01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:47,280 Speaker 2: of those things that make me think, hmm, cannot we 1225 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:50,200 Speaker 2: can't do that. We need the straight of horror moves opened. 1226 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 2: We need the mines removed, We need them to stop 1227 01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 2: with the tolls and the nonsense, step away from the 1228 01:03:57,400 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 2: strait that has to be opened up, that has to 1229 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 2: be available to the global economy, basically global shipping to 1230 01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:06,720 Speaker 2: get through there. That's number one. We know that we've 1231 01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:10,400 Speaker 2: degragated their military. We know that their navy is gone, 1232 01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:15,160 Speaker 2: we know that their air support is gone. They've been 1233 01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 2: really knocked down several notches when it comes to their 1234 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 2: military might. But they do still have the nuclear dust, 1235 01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 2: as President Trump likes to talk about, and they do 1236 01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:30,680 Speaker 2: have friends who are evildoers out there like China who 1237 01:04:30,680 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 2: would like to help bolster them. So to just hand 1238 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:35,720 Speaker 2: over cash right away, I don't think President Trump is 1239 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:37,560 Speaker 2: going to fall for that. So then how do you 1240 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 2: open up the straight and move away from this with 1241 01:04:42,520 --> 01:04:45,960 Speaker 2: the degraded around That's the question. US officials are concerned 1242 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:49,920 Speaker 2: right now, as they should be, that unfreezing funds at 1243 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:53,960 Speaker 2: this stage could remove their leverage point over run. They're broke. 1244 01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:58,240 Speaker 2: The people are broke. Trump has demanded that any agreement 1245 01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:01,480 Speaker 2: appears stronger than the nuclear deal struck in twenty fifteen 1246 01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 2: by Obama, and to avoid anything that could be construed 1247 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 2: as handing over palettes of cash I just talked about. 1248 01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 2: He criticized President Obama. He is not going to do that. 1249 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:13,880 Speaker 3: Now. 1250 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,960 Speaker 2: Here's what this advisor to the Iatola said. He said 1251 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 2: he wants to release frozen Iranian assets. He framed the 1252 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,520 Speaker 2: demand as a trust building measure. I'm sorry, there is 1253 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 2: no trust building measure with Iran. They are known terrorists 1254 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 2: who want to kill the West. They want to kill 1255 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 2: the Jews, they want to kill America. So for me, 1256 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 2: there is no trust. You just have to have a 1257 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:36,720 Speaker 2: deal with strict stipulations and oversight. He warned against return 1258 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 2: to war, saying that Iran will drag the war beyond 1259 01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 2: the Persian Gulf if the US resumes the conflict, potentially 1260 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 2: expanding military operations from the Strait of Hormves. He talked 1261 01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:50,280 Speaker 2: about a potential meeting with Trump and the Iahtola. He 1262 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:53,000 Speaker 2: didn't answer a question about that, and he didn't answer 1263 01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:55,680 Speaker 2: a question about the Iyatola's health and how he is 1264 01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:59,280 Speaker 2: actually functioning as a decision maker in the country, and 1265 01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:02,480 Speaker 2: then he read rated the claim of sovereignty over the 1266 01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,959 Speaker 2: Strait of hormones. All of these things make a deal 1267 01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:09,000 Speaker 2: with Iran dead on arrival. This is a sticky, wicked 1268 01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:10,880 Speaker 2: This is the thing that we knew President Trump would 1269 01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:13,000 Speaker 2: have to deal with to try to figure out how 1270 01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 2: you get these more extremists out of the way and 1271 01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:17,720 Speaker 2: you start dealing with the people who are actually a 1272 01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:20,200 Speaker 2: little more sane in Iran, who represent the will of 1273 01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:22,280 Speaker 2: the people. That's going to be the project of the 1274 01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:25,760 Speaker 2: administration this weekend, I can tell you that much.
