It was Russia's rule Monday through Thursday, 80 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 5: only what he cared about. I think that's a good 81 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,679 Speaker 5: rule of thumb. But on Friday he said he would 82 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 5: take a career risk and hand the show over to 83 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 5: rank amateurs, to hijack the show and do whatever you want, 84 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 5: talk about whatever you want, So come on in.

You can 103 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 5: call me and just have it out. I have people 104 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 5: that send endless messages and emails all day long. That 105 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 5: could be your whole day just firing back and forth 106 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 5: behind a keyboard. 107 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 2: I can't stand it.

I'm considering lobbying Congress to 114 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 5: OUTLAWED entirely.

She has the office signature. 119 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 5: You know, whenever she sends out an email and it 120 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 5: lists her email address of course cause you're getting an email, 121 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 5: and then it lists her cell phone number and she writes, 122 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 5: text me, it's best and that's exactly right. You want 123 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 5: to reach me, call me or text me. The idea 124 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 5: to sit and hammer out message after message all day long. 125 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 5: People that you know, these people, it's their they're livelihoods. 126 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 5: Like I think they think they're compensated in per the 127 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 5: letter typed just type any type, any type any time. 128 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 5: How does anybody get anything done with the constant?

Today? 177 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 5: Ellison has said as the attorney general of Minnesota, he 178 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 5: did not agree. Because Holman said that they agreed that 179 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 5: they would not release criminals. ICE detainers would be held detaining. 180 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 5: That is, if someone was arrested and they were wanted 181 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 5: by ICE, that in fact, Minnesota and county and state 182 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 5: officials would agree to hold these detainees and hand them 183 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 5: over to ICE.

They were going to try 198 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 5: to play that over DHS. It looks like that's not 199 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 5: going to work out on the short order. But it's 200 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 5: a show. It's all a show, a show that's been 201 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 5: working to great effect, so why would they abandon it? 202 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 5: Even Joe Rogan recognizes the show.

Wayne Newton was a great guy 424 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 5: at the USO for years and years, and I think 425 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 5: we share politics, though I can't confirm. 426 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 2: I don't know it. 427 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 5: Look, the problem is even some conservatives in entertainment still feel. 428 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 2: Like, Eh, I don't want to you know what I mean. 429 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 5: I don't want to go on the Conservative Guys Show 430 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 5: because I really don't want to call attention to my politics. 431 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 5: There are still and he's in an age at a 432 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 5: time where he's of goodwill across the board. 433 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 2: Everybody loves them.

We really don't want to go there. That's 440 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 5: my hunch with That's been my experience in. 441 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 8: The past with people in entertainment. That has happened when 442 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 8: I've reached out, like sometimes we'll actually have someone very 443 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 8: mainstream a list booked, and then their press person will 444 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 8: call me and say it's just like, look, you know 445 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 8: the content of your show. 446 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 3: That that happens. 447 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 2: All the time. 448 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 8: So Wayne's people haven't said that specifically.

I 513 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 5: probably I shouldn't go too far with this, So I'm 514 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 5: just going to say my first reaction to it was, 515 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 5: I don't believe this. I don't believe this happened. I 516 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 5: don't believe the authenticity of any of this. This is 517 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 5: a Jesse Smolette thing. My first, I mean, my very 518 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 5: first initial reaction to this video was that, but I 519 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 5: know the guy's been arrested or whatever. 520 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 2: But was that yours or not? What was your reaction 521 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 2: to it? 522 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 14: Not? 523 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 3: At first, I will say not. 524 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 8: At first, I thought there's there are enough pissed off 525 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 8: people that somebody would go to. 526 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 3: Her town hall and throw something on her. I'm not 527 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 3: saying that's right, I agree with that, but I did 528 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 3: not think it was vacant first. 529 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 2: I'll say this. 530 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 5: Let me just start by saying, if this is legit, 531 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 5: and if this guy is real, and I know he's 532 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 5: been charged, and he should be charged, and if he's 533 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 5: really just an ilin Omar hater and he got in 534 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 5: there just because he's, you know, a hater who wanted 535 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 5: to take it out on elon Omoer. First of all, 536 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 5: he really sucks at protesting. I mean, it just goes 537 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 5: to show you if in fact he really is critical 538 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 5: of elon Omar. I don't know what this was about, 539 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 5: scorting a syringe of vinegar on her, like, I'm not 540 00:24:55,280 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 5: even sure, but to me, she's reading her prepared statement 541 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 5: and she kind of looks up out of the corner 542 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 5: of her eye as if to say, you ready, cue, 543 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 5: because he jumps up and he kind of squirts her 544 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 5: half hard and she goes charging at him. Now, ed, 545 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 5: I don't know many people who, if suddenly attacked or 546 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 5: about to be attacked, go charging at someone who squirts 547 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 5: something at them, particularly if you're a member of Congress 548 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 5: and she had security, and as security steps in. 549 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 2: She says, oh no, let me at him. Now, I'm 550 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 2: not going anywhere. I'm gonna stand here and validly continue 551 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 2: my speed. Just stop it. 552 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,360 Speaker 5: If you're a member of Congress and someone is there 553 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 5: to do you harm, the first thing you do is 554 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 5: get the hell out you beat it out of the room, 555 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 5: and security doesn't let her stay in the room. 556 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 2: But there was this big show about, oh no, I'm 557 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 2: gonna I'm gonna go fight him, and I'm not gonna 558 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 2: go anywhere. I'm tough and I'm strong. And then all 559 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 2: of a sudden, what happens. 560 00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 5: We're not talking about ilhan Omar's on you usual wealth. 561 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 5: All of a sudden, we're not talking about Somali fraud. 562 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 5: All of a sudden, we're talking about a guy who 563 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 5: shot apple cider vinegar out of a syringe. 564 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 2: Isn't that something? It's funny because. 565 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 5: The last time something like this happened, maybe not quite 566 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 5: like this, but similar. 567 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 2: Renee Good, the Renee Good story happened. 568 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 5: Do you remember when the day after Tim Wall steps 569 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 5: down over rampant billions of dollars in fraud in Minnesota? 570 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 5: Isn't it funny? My point is that, isn't it funny 571 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 5: that every time the walls start to close in politically 572 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 5: on Democrats and their theft, something extraordinary like Renee Good 573 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 5: or the guy with the vinegar syringe happens. 574 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 2: Isn't that something? And then we all start talking about. 575 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 8: That the time, Ah, the timing is impeccable. It seems 576 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 8: almost too perfect every single time. 577 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 5: So I'll just say, if the guy with the syringe 578 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 5: is a legitimate ilan Omar are protester, maximum extent of 579 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 5: the law, bring punishment down on him. I remained dubious 580 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 5: ornam minute.

There was a conversation 588 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 5: in Kansas City for a time that they just tear 589 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 5: the thing down and boy, and then there was a 590 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 5: decision to restore it and years ago and they did, and. 591 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 2: It's just gorgeous. 592 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 5: And I could just stand and stare at old architecture 593 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 5: like that and not even that old. I mean, you're talking, 594 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 5: you know, back in what the early nine hundreds, I 595 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 5: think when that was built. It's there's just something about 596 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,239 Speaker 5: they don't such an old guy thing to say. They 597 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 5: don't make buildings like that anymore. People just don't build 598 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 5: like that anymore. It's just it's beautiful. I love to 599 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 5: stare at the architecture of old buildings like union station 600 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 5: and train stations.

But I'm going to contact my local Assembly 836 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,360 Speaker 17: and senat their advice, even though they're democrat avin tolise 837 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,839 Speaker 17: them that this is not a good idea. We need 838 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 17: to be federal UH employees. ICE need to be respected 839 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 17: and they need to be able to do their job. 840 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 17: Number One, we didn't create the situation the previous administration 841 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,839 Speaker 17: letting the borders open and then you know, and then 842 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 17: and then all this stuff with Barack Obama doing the 843 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 17: same stuff. Now we're getting criticized, so it doesn't make 844 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,439 Speaker 17: any sense.

So that's 848 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 17: my opinion. 849 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 5: She got it well.

I'll just say, uh, it is 857 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 5: not exclusive coming from the left and leftist media when 858 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 5: we talk about this pushback on ice as you know, 859 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 5: and I have talked a little about this, I will 860 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 5: just say that News Corp, the folks that own the 861 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 5: Wall Street Journal and Fox News, they are as pro 862 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 5: open borders as anybody else. Now they may mask it 863 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 5: a little bit better, but they are just as much 864 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 5: part of the cologne and cufflink chamber of commerce. 865 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 2: Traditional Republican class as the rest of them. 866 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 5: And so I'm not assigning this to any personality on 867 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,399 Speaker 5: Fox or any particular journalist at the Wall Street Journal. 868 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 5: I'm just saying, organizationally, when the top believes in something, 869 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 5: even if you have great folks working on the networks 870 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 5: or are publishing great work at the Wall Street Journal, 871 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:51,880 Speaker 5: understand organizationally. The Fox News organization, the News Corp organization, 872 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 5: the Wall Street Journal organization, the editorial board. They love 873 00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 5: open borders and they don't like this is why we're 874 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 5: treated to stories like this from the Wall Street Journal. 875 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 5: These young voters are starting to regret their vote for Trump, 876 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 5: and then this whole thing, it's a whole story that 877 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 5: was written what two days ago about how young people 878 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 5: are very very disconcerted. They don't like turning on their 879 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 5: TV and seeing the way they don't like watching their 880 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 5: news feed and seeing the way Ice is behaving. Young 881 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 5: people are turning from Trump even though they voted for Trump. 882 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 5: They're turning from Trump because of Ice. Is what the 883 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 5: Wall Street Journal's entire story is. Uh huh.

I know you wouldn't 992 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 5: trade the blessing of your son for anything. Thanks for 993 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,919 Speaker 5: sharing moren a minute, mister wonderful on the way now 994 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 5: you should know and I know that you do, that 995 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 5: we are inching closer perhaps to a Senate deal on 996 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 5: this Save Act. And John Thune yesterday said, I'm just 997 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 5: reading here from the Daily Signal. Some Senate Republicans are supporting, 998 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 5: some are supporting Senate Majority leader John Thune's promised to 999 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 5: hold a vote on an amended election security bill on Wednesday. 1000 00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:31,160 Speaker 5: He called for adding a voter id mandate to a 1001 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 5: bill requiring proof of citizenship to vote in a federal election. 1002 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 5: At some point, we're going to have that vote, Thuon said. 1003 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 5: On the Senate bill. The House first approved the Safe 1004 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:47,800 Speaker 5: Guard American Voter Eligibility Act, or the SAVE Act, sponsored 1005 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 5: by Chip Roy of Texas. The legislation requires voters to 1006 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 5: provide proof of citizenship in person to register to vote 1007 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,479 Speaker 5: in a federal election, and require states to remove non 1008 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:03,200 Speaker 5: citizens from voter rolls. The Senate version of the bill, 1009 00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 5: sponsored by Mike Lee of Utah, has lingered in the chamber. However, 1010 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 5: it has gained momentum after Rick Scott of Florida strongly 1011 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:15,880 Speaker 5: advocated for it earlier this week. I have co sponsored 1012 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 5: the SAVE Act in the past, he said. My understanding 1013 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 5: is that they are still modifying the bill. It includes 1014 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 5: right now a requirement that you be a citizen to 1015 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 5: register to vote, but it doesn't include a requirement. But 1016 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 5: it doesn't include a requirement that to vote you must 1017 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 5: be a citizen. In other words, if you're going to 1018 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 5: have what we call voter ID or photo ID when 1019 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 5: somebody goes into a ballot box to vote. That's not 1020 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,720 Speaker 5: completely covered in the current bill. So that's been fixed 1021 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,719 Speaker 5: and addressed, says Thune. And I think the new bill 1022 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 5: will deal with that, but at some point we'll have 1023 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:49,240 Speaker 5: that vote. 1024 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 2: I'm for it. 1025 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,359 Speaker 5: I think most of our colleagues in the Senate are. 1026 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:56,319 Speaker 5: It hasn't had consideration in the relevant committee yet, but 1027 00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 5: I know there is high level of interest among our 1028 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 5: members in the Save Act. Currently, thirty six states require 1029 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 5: voters to show some form of idea at the polls, 1030 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 5: according to the National Conference of State Legislatures, so about half. 1031 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:12,120 Speaker 2: Of those. 1032 00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:15,400 Speaker 5: Only nine states require photo ID and other fourteen states 1033 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 5: and DC require no ID to register to vote. This 1034 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 5: is a no brainer, it's common sense. So who's out 1035 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 5: to oppose it? 1036 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:22,880 Speaker 2: Right now? 1037 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,480 Speaker 5: Well, I just remind you you're going to see a 1038 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 5: steady diet, and it's not going to come exclusively from 1039 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,320 Speaker 5: CNN and MS now and left wing media outlets. You 1040 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,359 Speaker 5: are going to see it heavy now from the Wall 1041 00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 5: Street Journal. You're going to see it heavy now from 1042 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:40,839 Speaker 5: Fox News. I'm sorry to say, you're going because all 1043 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 5: of these people are pro open borders, and they are 1044 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 5: pro illegal alien and they are pro taking advantage of taxpayers. 1045 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 5: That's all I can say about it. I don't know 1046 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 5: how else to frame it. They love illegal voting, they 1047 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 5: love illegal labor, they love it. Nobody wants the graft 1048 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:58,239 Speaker 5: to stop. Nobody, And I'm sorry to say that is 1049 00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:02,080 Speaker 5: not exclusively found on the demo side. It is found 1050 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 5: on the. 1051 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 2: Boards of places like News Corp. 1052 00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:08,920 Speaker 12: So just know. 1053 00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 5: And the campaign is starting in Earnest this morning. I'm 1054 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 5: watching it out of the corner of my eye. They're 1055 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 5: running poles. But our young people and people in general 1056 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:19,399 Speaker 5: are uncomfortable about ice, and small businesses are hurting. And 1057 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 5: the Wall Street Journal teratoryizes today, Boy, they really wish 1058 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 5: Trump would stop talking so much about immigration and focus 1059 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:25,240 Speaker 5: on other things. 1060 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,120 Speaker 2: Uh huh, just. 1061 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 5: Beware, That's all I got your Paul, I got it, 1062 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 5: So just beware, all right.

We sat down to speak with 1065 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,240 Speaker 5: him this week. Is the rollout for Trump accounts happened 1066 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 5: in Washington.

Well. 1068 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 3: Here we are in Washington, d C. 1069 00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 2: With Kevin O'Leary, mister wonderful himself. Pleasure to see in. 1070 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 2: Persons are great to be here. 1071 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 16: Thank you. 1072 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,320 Speaker 5: You kicked off the morning. Yeah, on the Trump bonds. 1073 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 5: This is I know, if anything else. You're a free 1074 00:51:57,640 --> 00:52:00,600 Speaker 5: market guy. You must love for once government officials talking 1075 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 5: about the free market. 1076 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I do. 1077 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 16: I mean, listen. 1078 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,280 Speaker 19: I got on board with this because it's good policy. 1079 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:09,240 Speaker 19: I don't shill for politicians, I really shill for good policy. 1080 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 19: And I thought this was a great idea. It's really 1081 00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 19: bipartisan in many ways anyways. But what really struck me 1082 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,719 Speaker 19: about it when I heard the details I've heard. I've 1083 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 19: heard about this maybe seven months ago. It's the first 1084 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:20,800 Speaker 19: time I came on my radar. 1085 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 16: I'd spent so much time in my early. 1086 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,320 Speaker 19: Career in educational software, a learning company. We're the largest 1087 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:31,879 Speaker 19: education software company, and we were terrific in advancing math 1088 00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 19: and reading scores. But nobody in our industry even focused 1089 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,400 Speaker 19: at all on financial literacy. And we really failed the 1090 00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:41,800 Speaker 19: country because today there's one hundred and ten million people 1091 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:45,520 Speaker 19: out there that have no idea what to do near retirement. 1092 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,280 Speaker 19: They have no savings accounts. They haven't planned for anything. 1093 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 19: You know, they're in their forties, fifties and sixties and so. 1094 00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 2: And in fairness probably weren't taught. 1095 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 16: They weren't. 1096 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:58,920 Speaker 19: But this idea has a brilliant educational aspect to it 1097 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:02,800 Speaker 19: because when you open this account in an individual's name, 1098 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,720 Speaker 19: and as soon as they're cognizant of money at probably 1099 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,279 Speaker 19: the age of five or six, they're going to be 1100 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 19: interested in what's in there, and they're going to start 1101 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,520 Speaker 19: to learn about how it works. They're going to see 1102 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 19: it on their mobile device whatever they look like in 1103 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 19: five years. 1104 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 16: But the key to this is that it's going. 1105 00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 19: To grow at the traditional market rate of eight to 1106 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 19: ten percent a year. So you know, if you just 1107 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:27,320 Speaker 19: start with the basics and put in the minimum amounts, 1108 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 19: you could be fifty sixty even eighty thousand at eighteen 1109 00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:34,239 Speaker 19: years old, which is a great anchor to start life with. 1110 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 19: I mean, you actually have to deal with educational costs 1111 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 19: and everything else. 1112 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 16: So I like that a lot. 1113 00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 5: You like good policy, you said, you're not really a 1114 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 5: political shill or you like good policy. The one thing 1115 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 5: that you share in common with your colleague Mark Cuban 1116 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:49,800 Speaker 5: is he's also politically active. I don't know that he 1117 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 5: necessarily sees things out of eye, but I know you've 1118 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,719 Speaker 5: both done well financially. Do you think he didn't break 1119 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:55,720 Speaker 5: something like this even though he's not a big fan. 1120 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,320 Speaker 16: Of the President's You're right, I think he would. 1121 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,759 Speaker 19: I haven't talked about it yet, but you know he's 1122 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:04,320 Speaker 19: very busy trying to reduce pharmaceutical costs. 1123 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:07,640 Speaker 16: Yeah, but Mark's pragmatic. This makes sense. I mean, I 1124 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,000 Speaker 16: don't know why anybody wouldn't like it. 1125 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:13,880 Speaker 19: I think you can be on different political spectrums, but 1126 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,040 Speaker 19: on this particular policy. 1127 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 16: It's a unifier. I really really think so, because we. 1128 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 2: Got a big problem. 1129 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,799 Speaker 19: We got a lot of people that have zero plans 1130 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,479 Speaker 19: for how they're going to survive when they had sixty five. 1131 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 19: And I think that's a huge problem because you're putting 1132 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:32,239 Speaker 19: the burden on social Security, which in itself is a 1133 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 19: much more expensive vehicle than this. This has very little cost, 1134 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 19: associatingly that it's frictionless, and I think it's even better 1135 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:41,320 Speaker 19: than Charley in some ways. 1136 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 5: You said to me we were just talking before this 1137 00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 5: interview about if people follow you on social media, you're 1138 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 5: often you're doing your morning media hits in pajama Pan said, 1139 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 5: you said, I just don't I don't care, I don't 1140 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 5: have That's what I love about you.

The entertainment community, as we know, 1144 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,840 Speaker 5: is particularly hostile to this administration. How has it treated 1145 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 5: you or do you care? 1146 00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:06,760 Speaker 2: Is my point. 1147 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,600 Speaker 19: You know, I just finished shooting and I'm very proud 1148 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 19: to say that's been nominated for an Oscar Marty Supreme. 1149 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 16: And you know, when the. 1150 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 19: Director, Josh Safti came to me said, look, we're looking 1151 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:20,839 Speaker 19: for a real a hole and you're it. 1152 00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,960 Speaker 16: So I said, I'm just proud to be that guy 1153 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 16: for you. 1154 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 19: And you know, the whole experience was wonderful because it 1155 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,439 Speaker 19: really took me out of my comfort zone. But you're right, 1156 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 19: I think Hollywood traditionally has been quite hostile to. 1157 00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 16: The more conservative movement. 1158 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:41,800 Speaker 19: I don't consider myself I'm sort of pragmatic in my views. 1159 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,880 Speaker 16: You know, there's some liberal policies I agree with and 1160 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:48,239 Speaker 16: some that I don't. But basically I want. 1161 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:53,480 Speaker 19: The country to be successful for entrepreneurs. The entire American 1162 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 19: economy for two hundred and fifty years has been driven 1163 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:57,720 Speaker 19: by people that take risks. 1164 00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 11: It's about a. 1165 00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 16: Third of the population. I'm their advocate in Washington. 1166 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,360 Speaker 19: That's why I'm here so much, supporting businesses five to 1167 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 19: five hundred employees, and most of those. 1168 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 16: People are pragmatic people. They're not all conservatives. There's plenty 1169 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:14,719 Speaker 16: of liberals, but they're pragmatic. 1170 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,840 Speaker 19: They live their lives, building their business, taking care of 1171 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 19: their families and their customers. They're not tied up in 1172 00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 19: the crazy stuff that sometimes politics drags us into because 1173 00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:29,319 Speaker 19: they have to make a living, and I think that's 1174 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 19: what's so refreshing about working with them. 1175 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 5: Final question. I know you got to run TikTok. You 1176 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,000 Speaker 5: had expressed some interest in that. I had a while back. 1177 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 19: You know, I was one of many bidding groups. You 1178 00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 19: can't win every deal, and I tried everything in my power. 1179 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:44,319 Speaker 19: I was just talking to Michael Dell about it because 1180 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 19: he's in the syndicate. I tried everything I could to 1181 00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:47,919 Speaker 19: get in there. 1182 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,760 Speaker 2: But are you happy where it's end it up? I mean, ultimately, 1183 00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:51,880 Speaker 2: I think you would have preferred. 1184 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 19: It be I was willing to be twenty billion for it, 1185 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 19: so the President god for fourteen. He did a phenomenal deal. 1186 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,720 Speaker 19: That business is worth way more than fourteen billion dollars. 1187 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 19: You know, it's got seven million businesses on it that 1188 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 19: are really really productive and profitable, and I love them, 1189 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 19: and I you know, I'm never a sore loser because 1190 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:15,239 Speaker 19: the people that are in that syndicate are people I 1191 00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 19: do business with now anyways. So it's sort of like 1192 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,600 Speaker 19: we all try to get in. This deal is really 1193 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 19: led by the Ellisons in terms of they took over 1194 00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 19: the responsibility for the servicing of the tech and providing 1195 00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 19: the covenants that are acquired by law by the Supreme Court, 1196 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 19: which has a big responsibility, and then silver Lake and 1197 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,720 Speaker 19: then of course you know some other players on it 1198 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 19: that fit into that. But it's a very small cap. 1199 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:47,040 Speaker 5: Title outside of business important from a geopolitical point of 1200 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:48,960 Speaker 5: view that it's not in China's control. 1201 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 15: Yeah. 1202 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 16: Look, I'm not a big China fan. 1203 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 19: I love the Chinese people, but I don't like the 1204 00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 19: Chinese government, and I think they're the only enemy. I mean, 1205 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 19: when I think about policy with Canada, for example, I 1206 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 19: want to unify the economies for one thing reason to 1207 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:03,440 Speaker 19: tell the Chinese all mess will us because I think 1208 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 19: we have to spend five percent of the combined economy's 1209 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 19: GDP just to defend the North. 1210 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:10,919 Speaker 16: Look, the Chinese are coming for us. I'm sorry, it's 1211 00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 16: just that's a fact. 1212 00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 19: And if people don't wake up and smell the roses, 1213 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 19: they're gonna miss this thing. 1214 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:16,479 Speaker 2: It's bad. 1215 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 5: Kevin O'Leary, thanks a lot for your time, sir got 1216 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 5: I appreciate your job. 1217 00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:28,480 Speaker 2: The dun Road Doctrine.

So now we're going to do I mean, 1311 01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,600 Speaker 5: and again, we don't know how many of them went 1312 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:44,520 Speaker 5: to Biden or how many of them went to Trump. 1313 01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:47,240 Speaker 5: But what we do know is hundreds of thousands of 1314 01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 5: ballots were improperly counted by their own admission, and if 1315 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:55,360 Speaker 5: Joe Biden won Georgia by eight thousand. You know what 1316 01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:58,040 Speaker 5: I heard ABC News say yesterday. I caught this while 1317 01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 5: I was flipping around. ABC newsaid, you know, it was there. 1318 01:04:02,920 --> 01:04:05,200 Speaker 5: I don't know, Frenchy sounded name reporter, what was his name, 1319 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,800 Speaker 5: pe or something or other, their FBI correspondent. He was 1320 01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 5: there on the ground reporting for David Muir and his 1321 01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 5: very skin tight suit jacket. David here in Atlanta, brother 1322 01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:16,960 Speaker 5: Fulton County, or wherever the hell he was. You know, 1323 01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:21,600 Speaker 5: it's worth repeating that even had the election gone in 1324 01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 5: a different way for Donald Trump and Georgia, he still 1325 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 5: would not have won the presidential election of forty twenty. 1326 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:29,400 Speaker 2: Ah. 1327 01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:34,640 Speaker 5: So now we're moving the goalposts. They're already setting you 1328 01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 5: up for oil. Okay, so Trump rightly won Georgia, but 1329 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 5: it still doesn't mean he would have won in twenty twenty. 1330 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:47,040 Speaker 5: A great to be with you, folks, Dallas, Texas.

School Choice has grown by leaps and 1355 01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 5: bounds over the past six years, but the fight for 1356 01:05:55,240 --> 01:06:00,479 Speaker 5: education freedom will continue boldly in twenty twenty six. School 1357 01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 5: Choice Week is underway with events in various states, and 1358 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,360 Speaker 5: while they're not expecting another banner year like twenty twenty five, 1359 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,400 Speaker 5: when five states approved new school choice programs and another 1360 01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:14,480 Speaker 5: five expanded theirs, various improvements and expansions are in the works. 1361 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 5: First among them our efforts to pass broad school choice 1362 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:21,240 Speaker 5: in Mississippi, a measure there did not advance last year 1363 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:24,040 Speaker 5: amid divisions amongst Republicans. This year, the House passed the 1364 01:06:24,040 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 5: school choice bill at the start of the legislative season 1365 01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 5: in Mississippi, and some I believe now twenty seven states 1366 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:35,479 Speaker 5: have some form of a Club for Growth is proud 1367 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 5: to invest seven figures across the country, advocating for results 1368 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:43,960 Speaker 5: in places like Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Missouri, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, 1369 01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 5: South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas. 1370 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:46,480 Speaker 2: And Wyoming. 1371 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:52,240 Speaker 5: Wyoming school choice topped one point five million participants in 1372 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:56,080 Speaker 5: twenty twenty five, and we'll expand further this year thanks 1373 01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:58,160 Speaker 5: to Texas and Idaho launching programs. 1374 01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:00,920 Speaker 2: It's big, really big. And then I got a stack of. 1375 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:04,240 Speaker 5: Stories that confirm why if you're not thinking about alternatives 1376 01:07:04,280 --> 01:07:10,920 Speaker 5: for education for your kids. You should because I know 1377 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 5: that there are a lot of good people in public 1378 01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:14,960 Speaker 5: education who are trying their best. And I have personal 1379 01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 5: friends and relatives, including the woman I married and my mother, 1380 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:21,960 Speaker 5: who are public educators. So I'm not tastigating everyone in 1381 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 5: public education. But it is a cesspool and it's getting worse. 1382 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:27,440 Speaker 5: And I wish I could tell you the white hats 1383 01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 5: out number the black hats and people that are genuinely 1384 01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 5: trying to educate your kids, but that's just not so. 1385 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,400 Speaker 5: There are too many options today to just send your 1386 01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:40,160 Speaker 5: kid into the buzzsaw of public education. Too many options 1387 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:42,600 Speaker 5: I don't want to hear its. Do you experience evecuse? 1388 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:44,760 Speaker 5: Do you expand the hell it is? There are too 1389 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 5: many options to educate your child. You do not have 1390 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:50,600 Speaker 5: to send them into the buzzsaw of public education where 1391 01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,680 Speaker 5: they teach them about all this radical transgender crap, amongst 1392 01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:56,320 Speaker 5: many other things. Here to talk about. One of those 1393 01:07:56,360 --> 01:08:00,840 Speaker 5: options is Adam Mangana. He is with Optimum Academy. This 1394 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:03,880 Speaker 5: is an online school option out there K through twelve 1395 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:07,840 Speaker 5: and he's the CEO and founder of Optima. Adam, we 1396 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:11,280 Speaker 5: welcome you to the show, sir. Good morning, Chris. 1397 01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:13,600 Speaker 14: Thank you so much for having me. Loved your intro 1398 01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:16,360 Speaker 14: and excited to chat more about these options. 1399 01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:19,160 Speaker 2: Am I right? Or am I right? When I say? 1400 01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 5: And I know that you will happily tout options. You 1401 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:22,759 Speaker 5: would love people to look into Optima. 1402 01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:23,439 Speaker 2: But there are just. 1403 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:27,120 Speaker 5: Two many ways to educate your child today, if nothing else, 1404 01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:30,200 Speaker 5: educating them at home I think is preferable in my 1405 01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 5: view these days, than just sending them out there and 1406 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:37,160 Speaker 5: hoping for the best eight hours outside of your watchful eye. 1407 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:38,479 Speaker 17: That's right. 1408 01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:42,599 Speaker 14: The biggest hidden monopoly in education is geography. And you're 1409 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:46,080 Speaker 14: exactly right. We've been too long tethered to the zip 1410 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,200 Speaker 14: code that we happen to purchase a house in. And 1411 01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:53,000 Speaker 14: what has been amazing about this administration's innovation in terms 1412 01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 14: of policy, right, these educational savings accounts that you've been 1413 01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:59,080 Speaker 14: talking about all week. You know, the dollars are now 1414 01:08:59,160 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 14: following the child. 1415 01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 15: And in a place like Texas, right. 1416 01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 14: Dallas, you can have ten thousand dollars right to make 1417 01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:09,200 Speaker 14: those options accessible, thirty thousand dollars if your child has 1418 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:12,920 Speaker 14: learning differences. So we are no longer kind of stuck 1419 01:09:13,479 --> 01:09:16,120 Speaker 14: and with solutions like ours right where we're trying to 1420 01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:19,760 Speaker 14: make ambulatory learning great again. Right, Our greatest teachers ever, 1421 01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 14: Jesus Socrates, they walked alongside their students, and to be 1422 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,360 Speaker 14: able to do that different than the checkerboard of faces 1423 01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 14: that we have here, but actually in an immersive environment 1424 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:32,280 Speaker 14: where we've built the world's first virtual reality school where 1425 01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:35,439 Speaker 14: students can actually be present magic school bus style walking 1426 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:39,520 Speaker 14: alongside their teacher is a transformational tool and a transformational 1427 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:40,559 Speaker 14: technology for learning. 1428 01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 5: Adam ted Cruz said that he believes that what was 1429 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:48,080 Speaker 5: passed in the One Big Beautiful Bill last year, the 1430 01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:51,559 Speaker 5: federal education tax credit scholarship program. He says, this is 1431 01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:55,000 Speaker 5: like a generational shift, he believes coming out of the 1432 01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 5: federal government. What does it mean to an organization like yours, 1433 01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:01,519 Speaker 5: Optima Academy, How does how does a parent take advantage 1434 01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:04,759 Speaker 5: of it? And what does it mean for children's learning 1435 01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 5: through a vehicle like Optima. 1436 01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:11,080 Speaker 14: Yeah, there are two real innovations taking place right now 1437 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 14: that are going to transform education. 1438 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 17: You know. 1439 01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 14: Of course, people talk about the technological innovation, the aerospatial 1440 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 14: computing AI and immersive computing, which I think parents rightfully 1441 01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:25,200 Speaker 14: so have a little bit of skepticism around. We see 1442 01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,639 Speaker 14: that technology as a way to kind of preserve what's 1443 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 14: best about learning, not just try to change. 1444 01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 15: Innovation for innovation's sake. 1445 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:35,000 Speaker 14: The other innovation is what we've discussed a little bit, 1446 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:38,320 Speaker 14: which is the educational savings accounts. This is the first 1447 01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:42,160 Speaker 14: time in history where the dollars are now following the child. 1448 01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:46,720 Speaker 14: That is a very profound difference which will allow families 1449 01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:49,400 Speaker 14: who have been kind of priced out. Right, it's either 1450 01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:52,000 Speaker 14: welfare for the rich or welfare for the poor. Right, 1451 01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:55,799 Speaker 14: we now have in this policy baked in an opportunity 1452 01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:59,320 Speaker 14: for middle class folks to be able to access private options, 1453 01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:02,679 Speaker 14: charter options, public school options. As you mentioned, I think 1454 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:05,479 Speaker 14: to your point, people don't have beef with teaching and 1455 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:07,760 Speaker 14: the teaching profession. They have beef with the system so 1456 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:09,000 Speaker 14: to be able to vote with their feet. 1457 01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:10,280 Speaker 2: This bill allows for that. 1458 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:13,479 Speaker 5: I mean, I have a stack of stories here in 1459 01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 5: front of me, Adam. It's just you know, and I 1460 01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:19,800 Speaker 5: can't speak specifically to Optima Academy, although I know you're 1461 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:21,680 Speaker 5: good people and you do. 1462 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 2: It right and you do it well. 1463 01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:27,440 Speaker 5: But when you talk about curriculum, here again, Virginia Democrats 1464 01:11:27,479 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 5: move to embed transgender and queer history across all kids 1465 01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:36,040 Speaker 5: curriculum under the new moderate governor, Abigail Spanberger. Transgender and 1466 01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:39,880 Speaker 5: queer history is back, Chicago teacher. This is just a 1467 01:11:39,880 --> 01:11:43,200 Speaker 5: stack of headlines I have here. Adam Chicago teacher placed 1468 01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:46,919 Speaker 5: on leave after a Facebook post supporting ICE. In Kansas, 1469 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:49,320 Speaker 5: the students were told they couldn't name Charlie Kirk or 1470 01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:53,080 Speaker 5: Trump as role models for an assignment. The NEA doubles 1471 01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:58,120 Speaker 5: down on restorative discipline, whatever that means. California violated family 1472 01:11:58,160 --> 01:12:02,919 Speaker 5: rights law by secretly transition students. This transgender stuff inside 1473 01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:06,400 Speaker 5: the NEA and and a lot of schools. It's it's 1474 01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:10,360 Speaker 5: most alarming, and it's it's it's not it's not receding. 1475 01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:12,880 Speaker 5: You would think that this would quiet and pull back, 1476 01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:15,760 Speaker 5: but it is as aggressive in public education as it's 1477 01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 5: ever been. And it's why I want to continue to 1478 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:20,679 Speaker 5: highlight to people that there are so many other ways, 1479 01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:23,879 Speaker 5: like Optima, for your kids to go get an education 1480 01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:25,760 Speaker 5: devoid of this garbage. 1481 01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:31,040 Speaker 14: Chris Focus is the new IQ. It almost assumes that 1482 01:12:31,479 --> 01:12:34,639 Speaker 14: you know, we don't have a curriculum crisis, right. We 1483 01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:37,559 Speaker 14: have to work on reading, writing, and arithmetic, and we 1484 01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:41,040 Speaker 14: have to focus because we're in an an in an 1485 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:44,800 Speaker 14: international competition for the very best thinkers. If you if 1486 01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:47,560 Speaker 14: you're following where we are in terms of student outcomes, 1487 01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:49,840 Speaker 14: we don't have the luxury of working on these things 1488 01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:52,679 Speaker 14: that you're describing. What we're doing at Optima is really 1489 01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:56,400 Speaker 14: driving student growth and student results, and that's where our 1490 01:12:56,840 --> 01:12:58,320 Speaker 14: society and our system. 1491 01:12:58,040 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 15: Needs to be focused on. 1492 01:12:59,120 --> 01:13:01,080 Speaker 14: The other thing we do it that I think is unique, 1493 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:06,000 Speaker 14: as we really prioritize civic virtue. Part of the purpose 1494 01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:10,360 Speaker 14: of school is to create citizens. And you want citizens 1495 01:13:10,400 --> 01:13:13,640 Speaker 14: that are contributing and not citizens that are detracting. And 1496 01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:16,320 Speaker 14: so to be able to go back, for example, in 1497 01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:18,839 Speaker 14: some of our lessons to the founding of our country 1498 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:21,720 Speaker 14: and learn the true history and interview Benjamin Franklin and 1499 01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:24,280 Speaker 14: our founding fathers. These are ways that we can frame 1500 01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:27,720 Speaker 14: for all children in the United States. The beauty of 1501 01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 14: this experiment, right, this United States experiment that has allowed 1502 01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:33,400 Speaker 14: for us to be the best country on the planet. 1503 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:36,719 Speaker 2: This is the worlds you're touting this as the world's 1504 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:40,799 Speaker 2: first virtual reality school accredited K through twelve curriculum Optima 1505 01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:41,719 Speaker 2: Academy Online. 1506 01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:45,479 Speaker 5: You can go to Optima Academy dot online to learn 1507 01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:46,000 Speaker 5: more about this. 1508 01:13:46,360 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 2: I'll just say here again, Adam. The fact is. 1509 01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:51,839 Speaker 5: I've read this earlier in the week. A university president 1510 01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:56,200 Speaker 5: of Brandeis University in Massachusetts recently warned up to a 1511 01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:59,439 Speaker 5: quarter of American colleges and universities could close permanently in 1512 01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:03,559 Speaker 5: the coming years because of higher education not only being 1513 01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 5: unsustainable in terms of cost, you know, birth rates are 1514 01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:11,240 Speaker 5: declining and frankly, the value I have so many stacks. 1515 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:16,559 Speaker 5: Small businesses, you know, aren't They're not looking for big 1516 01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:19,400 Speaker 5: fancy degrees anymore. And a lot of blue collar jobs, 1517 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:21,799 Speaker 5: as we know, as well as a lot of companies 1518 01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 5: are deciding to train online in house. So a new 1519 01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:28,840 Speaker 5: way of thinking about education, not just K through twelve, 1520 01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:32,719 Speaker 5: but even after. We've got to start thinking differently. That doesn't, 1521 01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:35,400 Speaker 5: you know, cost us a fortune and radicalize our kids. 1522 01:14:36,800 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 14: You know what, Chris, I think part of what we've 1523 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,680 Speaker 14: missed too is what do we preserve in education? The 1524 01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:43,880 Speaker 14: thing that often is doing, even though it's marrying to 1525 01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:49,920 Speaker 14: a new delivery medium, is preserving the great books, preserving 1526 01:14:50,160 --> 01:14:55,400 Speaker 14: the enchiridim of Epictetius, Plato, Socrates. The magic of virtual reality, 1527 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:58,160 Speaker 14: right is that we can actually be present together. So 1528 01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:01,439 Speaker 14: when you're teaching in the Socratic method and asking questions 1529 01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,120 Speaker 14: to extend thinking. You're not on this checkerboard of faces 1530 01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 14: that you and I are on today, You're actually present 1531 01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:09,840 Speaker 14: together in a virtual space. And that level of accountability 1532 01:15:09,840 --> 01:15:13,320 Speaker 14: and structure is time tested, and that's what we need right. 1533 01:15:13,360 --> 01:15:16,960 Speaker 14: We have too many models that have prioritized something other 1534 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 14: than children's learning, and at Optima, we put the children first. 1535 01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:27,040 Speaker 5: Adam Mangana is the CEO, the founder of Optima Academy. 1536 01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:31,600 Speaker 5: Look them up online Optima Academy and Adam God bless you. 1537 01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:33,559 Speaker 5: Thank you for the work you're doing, the innovation and 1538 01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 5: giving parents options. We appreciate you. Happy school choice, You're ready. 1539 01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:45,679 Speaker 5: This just in breaking news this morning.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. He led 1553 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:35,400 Speaker 5: that goon squad into that church, and you know he 1554 01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:38,759 Speaker 5: was just doing journalism, you know, mister First Amendment protection. Well, 1555 01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:42,400 Speaker 5: they can prove now that this was highly coordinated. And 1556 01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:44,400 Speaker 5: of course there was so much more about that church 1557 01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:50,160 Speaker 5: raid that we hadn't seen. These sorts of odious actions, 1558 01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:53,439 Speaker 5: particularly as it relates to our First Amendment right to 1559 01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:56,240 Speaker 5: assemble and worship freely, they've got to be dealt with 1560 01:16:56,320 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 5: aggressively and swiftly. And if you're going to yank a 1561 01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:02,599 Speaker 5: guy like Mark Hawk out of his home and there, 1562 01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:05,320 Speaker 5: I hope, I sincerely hope, I really do. I hope 1563 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:07,360 Speaker 5: Don Lemon was pulled out of his home early this 1564 01:17:07,400 --> 01:17:15,240 Speaker 5: morning before sun up that I sincerely hope that, because 1565 01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:20,200 Speaker 5: fighting fire with fire in a movement like this is 1566 01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:23,080 Speaker 5: the only thing that's going to work. And I know 1567 01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:24,680 Speaker 5: people say, oh, we've really got a tone it down, 1568 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:27,200 Speaker 5: We've really got to tone it down. No, they started it. 1569 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:30,439 Speaker 5: They started it and it must be met with as 1570 01:17:30,520 --> 01:17:33,160 Speaker 5: much intensity. He broke the law, he was in violation 1571 01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 5: of the law, and he must be treated the exact 1572 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 5: same way legally that President Trump and so many others 1573 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:43,519 Speaker 5: have been treated, and they didn't violate the law the 1574 01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 5: way Don Lemon has. So this is a delight. It 1575 01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:50,040 Speaker 5: took longer than some wanted, but see, patience is a virtue. 1576 01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:53,559 Speaker 5: This is very, very good news. Patience is a virtue. 1577 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:54,040 Speaker 2: It came. 1578 01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 5: Let's go to Glenn in Ohio.

You're part of my 1609 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 9: morning making every day any Thank you, Jack. I wanted 1610 01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:27,479 Speaker 9: to talk about. You know, Trump's doing a fantastic job. 1611 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:31,120 Speaker 9: He's taken on the hard jobs of turning this country around. 1612 01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:36,880 Speaker 9: Yet we have seckless Republicans i e. Rhinos in the 1613 01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:41,000 Speaker 9: in the legislature that are slow walking and blocking them 1614 01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:43,559 Speaker 9: at every turn. I think it has a lot to 1615 01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:46,520 Speaker 9: do with the same problem we're dealing here within Texas, 1616 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:52,960 Speaker 9: in that overwhelmingly or Republican state. We are elected Republican 1617 01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:56,920 Speaker 9: legislature for the state, yet they turned out to be 1618 01:19:57,160 --> 01:20:02,800 Speaker 9: rhinos just jackasses and elephants dents that are siding with 1619 01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:06,519 Speaker 9: the Democrats and we're not getting anything done. Now, Steve 1620 01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:08,439 Speaker 9: Bannon's done a lot of work in the state and 1621 01:20:08,479 --> 01:20:11,240 Speaker 9: trying to identify this, but I'm wondering what you think. 1622 01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:14,479 Speaker 9: I think this is a similar problem that most states 1623 01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:16,480 Speaker 9: are having. He just hasn't been identified. 1624 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:18,360 Speaker 2: And how do we get Well, I'll tell you. 1625 01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:23,280 Speaker 5: I know, we saw in Indiana where they tried to redistrict, 1626 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:25,720 Speaker 5: you know, and the Senate Republicans and the Indiana State 1627 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:30,800 Speaker 5: Senate bucked that. And President Trump is personally primary ing 1628 01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:33,640 Speaker 5: something like nine Senate Republicans in Indiana over it. 1629 01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:34,920 Speaker 2: So you're right, it is it. 1630 01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:38,240 Speaker 5: I mean in Iowa, for instance, Governor Kim Reynolds of Iowa, 1631 01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:43,280 Speaker 5: she primaried every single member of the Senate in Iowa 1632 01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:48,000 Speaker 5: when she was governor to get universal school choice passed, 1633 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:50,160 Speaker 5: for instance, and she won. She used the power of 1634 01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:53,839 Speaker 5: her bullypul but to crisscross the state and primary Republicans 1635 01:20:53,880 --> 01:20:56,000 Speaker 5: who would not support her school choice agenda, and she 1636 01:20:56,080 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 5: got it done. So you're one hundred percent right. If 1637 01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:03,880 Speaker 5: real conservative leaders, the desantist types, the Kim Reynolds types, 1638 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,400 Speaker 5: if they want to use their bully pulpits to crisscross 1639 01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:09,960 Speaker 5: their states and primary state legislative members who will not 1640 01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:11,200 Speaker 5: get on board their agenda. 1641 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:13,240 Speaker 2: I think it's brilliant. I mean Trump can't do it 1642 01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 2: all by himself, to your point, right. 1643 01:21:15,720 --> 01:21:18,920 Speaker 9: Right, And somehow we need to identify these people. I mean, 1644 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:25,160 Speaker 9: we need maga endorsed Republicans. You know, the voters see 1645 01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:27,960 Speaker 9: that it's not just a Republican that you're voting for, 1646 01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:31,519 Speaker 9: it's mega endorsed, because otherwise than that, we just keep 1647 01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:32,720 Speaker 9: getting the same rhinos. 1648 01:21:34,439 --> 01:21:36,599 Speaker 5: It's a wonderful point, and I really appreciate the call, 1649 01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:39,879 Speaker 5: my friend. Our telephone number is eight five five Stigall 1650 01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:41,840 Speaker 5: if you want to get in here today. Jack makes 1651 01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:43,760 Speaker 5: the point and we should all pay close attention to 1652 01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:46,360 Speaker 5: our local politics. Do you know who your state senator is? 1653 01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:49,080 Speaker 5: Do you know who your state representative is? In your 1654 01:21:49,080 --> 01:21:51,760 Speaker 5: state legislature. I'm not talking about at the federal level. 1655 01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:55,280 Speaker 5: That's another thing. Member of Congress, you know in Washington, 1656 01:21:55,320 --> 01:21:59,080 Speaker 5: your congressional representatives in both the Senate and the House, 1657 01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:01,880 Speaker 5: that's one thing. What's going on in your state legislature? 1658 01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:05,160 Speaker 5: Who represents you in your own backyard? Who runs your county, 1659 01:22:05,640 --> 01:22:08,160 Speaker 5: who's your state rep. Who's your state senator. Those people 1660 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 5: have an undue amount of influence over your day. And yeah, 1661 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:13,640 Speaker 5: we do need to find out who they are and 1662 01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:15,640 Speaker 5: if they're on board the MAGA agenda or not, and 1663 01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:20,680 Speaker 5: if they're not, call them out, primarium run against them. 1664 01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:22,960 Speaker 5: Breaking news again this morning, Don Lemon has been taken 1665 01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:25,160 Speaker 5: into custody. If you're just joining us, you hadn't heard 1666 01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:28,800 Speaker 5: that former CNN anchor and that lunatic goon who took 1667 01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:32,400 Speaker 5: those left wing protesters into a church last week in 1668 01:22:32,439 --> 01:22:35,000 Speaker 5: disrupted worship service. Don Lemon has now been taken into 1669 01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:37,599 Speaker 5: custody this morning. That's the breaking news I'm happy to deliver. 1670 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:40,120 Speaker 5: We'll continue to stay on that and probably have more 1671 01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 5: on Monday. Meanwhile, there are reports that leadership in Iran 1672 01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 5: has hopped a plane and is flying to Moscow right now. 1673 01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:47,840 Speaker 2: Now. 1674 01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:50,120 Speaker 5: I can't independently verify that. I saw that on X 1675 01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:52,680 Speaker 5: this morning, but if true, here again this proves the 1676 01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:56,439 Speaker 5: don Roe doctrine is working. Iranian leadership starting to collapse. 1677 01:22:57,160 --> 01:23:00,280 Speaker 5: This another story on Cuba. President Trump announcing yes today 1678 01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:03,000 Speaker 5: his plan to impose additional tariffs on countries that provide 1679 01:23:03,040 --> 01:23:07,880 Speaker 5: oil to Cuba. Declaring a national security emergency regarding the 1680 01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:12,559 Speaker 5: island nation. In an executive order, Trump told folks that 1681 01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:15,719 Speaker 5: the policies, practices, and actions of the government of Cuba 1682 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:21,800 Speaker 5: constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat. Donald Trump warns Iran's 1683 01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:24,679 Speaker 5: time is running out for deal to avert US military action. 1684 01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 5: This root guy or Rootie or rut or however the 1685 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:34,320 Speaker 5: hell you say his name, he said. NATO secretary generals 1686 01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:36,320 Speaker 5: who I'm talking about. He said this week that Europe 1687 01:23:36,360 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 5: is dreaming if it believes it can defend itself without 1688 01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:45,320 Speaker 5: US backing. The EU has sanctioned fifteen Iranian officials. Trump 1689 01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:47,519 Speaker 5: is expanding his trade war with Canada by. 1690 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,040 Speaker 2: Going all all of all of. 1691 01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:58,920 Speaker 5: This, All of this is because of the emerging Donroe doctrine, 1692 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:04,160 Speaker 5: which is simple and it is clear the United States 1693 01:24:04,280 --> 01:24:07,800 Speaker 5: is no longer going to allow hostile or unstable regimes 1694 01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 5: to gain a foothold anywhere in this hemisphere. This is 1695 01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:16,479 Speaker 5: a modern update of the Monroe Doctrine, which I've written 1696 01:24:16,520 --> 01:24:19,840 Speaker 5: about and we've talked about here. It's built though for 1697 01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:23,799 Speaker 5: today's world, where places like Cuba and Venezuela and others 1698 01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:28,639 Speaker 5: serve as platforms for outside powers like Russia, China, and Iran. 1699 01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:32,560 Speaker 5: Nothing shows this shift more clearly than what Trump is 1700 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:36,320 Speaker 5: doing right now in this approach to Cuba. For decades, 1701 01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 5: democrats have treated Cuba as some kind of country America 1702 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:42,599 Speaker 5: should normalize. Barack Obama was one of the most famous 1703 01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:46,799 Speaker 5: for this. He reopened democratic ties to Cuba in twenty fifteen. 1704 01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:49,360 Speaker 5: Remember he went down there and watched a baseball game. 1705 01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:52,519 Speaker 5: He stood there in front of that big mural of 1706 01:24:52,560 --> 01:24:53,839 Speaker 5: Shee Govera on the building. 1707 01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:54,599 Speaker 2: Remember that. 1708 01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:59,160 Speaker 5: But see, Obama did not want to soften the regime 1709 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,320 Speaker 5: of Cuba. He wanted to the glamorize it. He wanted 1710 01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:04,240 Speaker 5: to prop it up. He wanted to normalize communism. Again, 1711 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:07,080 Speaker 5: the photo of him at a podium, sitting next to 1712 01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:09,680 Speaker 5: the castros at a baseball game, and the photo of 1713 01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:11,120 Speaker 5: shag Guavera over his shoulder. 1714 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:12,639 Speaker 2: That wasn't by accident. 1715 01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:16,879 Speaker 5: You don't take press conferences as president with Shag Guovera 1716 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:21,080 Speaker 5: over your shoulder by accident. He wanted to glamorize and 1717 01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 5: prop it up and normalize a communist state. His policy 1718 01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:28,040 Speaker 5: was not about promoting democracy or human rights. It was 1719 01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:36,320 Speaker 5: about giving legitimacy oxygen and international prestige to dictatorships just 1720 01:25:36,400 --> 01:25:39,400 Speaker 5: ninety miles off the coast of Florida. Now, a lot 1721 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:42,799 Speaker 5: of Democrats in leadership have long sympathized with communist systems, 1722 01:25:42,840 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 5: and Cuba served as a shining symbol of their ideological 1723 01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:51,240 Speaker 5: affinity for communism. Biden wanted to continue more of the 1724 01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:55,920 Speaker 5: same in that vein his administration kept expanding Obama's approach. 1725 01:25:56,840 --> 01:26:02,920 Speaker 5: They loosened restrictions on travel, remittance trade. Because Biden was, 1726 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:05,280 Speaker 5: in essence, as we all know, just a third term 1727 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 5: of Barack Obama. Biden wasn't running anything. It was Obama's 1728 01:26:09,160 --> 01:26:14,680 Speaker 5: henchmen that were running that husks first and only term. Thankfully, 1729 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:19,960 Speaker 5: the autopen president followed the very same script as Obama. 1730 01:26:20,640 --> 01:26:29,760 Speaker 5: Engagement over pressure, normalization over confrontation, soft power over hard leverage, 1731 01:26:30,040 --> 01:26:33,600 Speaker 5: and as you know, Donald Trump is all about hard leverage. 1732 01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:38,240 Speaker 5: Democrats have always framed Cuba as a victim of American hostility, 1733 01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:44,280 Speaker 5: and they've always praised Cuba as this beacon for universal 1734 01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:47,600 Speaker 5: healthcare or whatever. They've always ignored the fact that the 1735 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:53,440 Speaker 5: regime is a brutal, repressive place that takes political prisoners 1736 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:59,400 Speaker 5: and has failed economically at every turn broke dirt. Poor Trump, 1737 01:26:59,479 --> 01:27:01,640 Speaker 5: on the other hand, and sees Cuba very differently the 1738 01:27:01,680 --> 01:27:05,320 Speaker 5: way normal people do. And by the way, ask anybody 1739 01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:08,800 Speaker 5: who's tried to escape there on a makeshift draft why 1740 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:11,960 Speaker 5: they've tried to escape. Trump understands that, so does Florida, 1741 01:27:12,160 --> 01:27:14,280 Speaker 5: which is why Southern Florida went for Trump in such 1742 01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:19,400 Speaker 5: a resounding way. Look, the Dunroe doctrine has changed all this. 1743 01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:23,800 Speaker 5: Cuba is now seen as a direct security threat just 1744 01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:27,280 Speaker 5: ninety miles off the coast of Florida. Remember it wasn't 1745 01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:32,280 Speaker 5: too long ago you had Chinese and Russian vessels sailing 1746 01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:36,639 Speaker 5: around the coasts of Florida and Alaska, and they're cruising 1747 01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:41,880 Speaker 5: around Greenland too. They're very emboldened. Trump's laying the SmackDown. 1748 01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:46,719 Speaker 5: The Cuban regime depends almost entirely on foreign oil to survive. 1749 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:52,280 Speaker 5: After Trump removed Maduro from Venezuela earlier this year, Maduro's 1750 01:27:52,400 --> 01:27:57,479 Speaker 5: close ally Cuba worked with him pretty closely, and that 1751 01:27:57,520 --> 01:28:00,639 Speaker 5: was a huge mistake. Now that oil life has dried 1752 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:06,360 Speaker 5: up for Cuba, Mexico became Cuba's main supplier until Trump 1753 01:28:06,400 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 5: acted January twenty ninth, mark it down. I just read 1754 01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:15,519 Speaker 5: it to you. The day Trump signed an executive order 1755 01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:19,280 Speaker 5: declaring a national emergency and authorizing tariffs on any country 1756 01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 5: that supplied oil to Cuba. The target obvious, Mexico, that's right, 1757 01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:30,719 Speaker 5: Just like he's gone after Cuba on tariffs, or excuse me, Canada, 1758 01:28:31,040 --> 01:28:35,000 Speaker 5: he's gone after Mexico. Now within days, Mexico has already 1759 01:28:35,080 --> 01:28:37,920 Speaker 5: signaled they're going to pause their oil shipments to Cuba. 1760 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:41,560 Speaker 5: And what does that do? Just like Venezuela, it's squeezing 1761 01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:44,759 Speaker 5: the communist dictatorship of Cuba without firing a single shot. 1762 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:49,599 Speaker 5: Cuba now only has weeks of fuel reserves. They face 1763 01:28:49,720 --> 01:28:54,120 Speaker 5: rolling blackouts, and they face an economic crisis, and their 1764 01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:57,080 Speaker 5: weak dictatorship will not be able to withstand this for long. 1765 01:28:57,120 --> 01:29:00,719 Speaker 5: It's the exact same thing that happened in Iran. Trump's 1766 01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:04,240 Speaker 5: message is blunt. You cut off the regime's energy and 1767 01:29:04,320 --> 01:29:09,160 Speaker 5: they collapse. And again, I stress, not a single American 1768 01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:14,439 Speaker 5: shot fired. This is economic pressure used as national defense. 1769 01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:19,400 Speaker 5: Democrats hate this not because they love Cuba's dictatorship necessarily, 1770 01:29:19,439 --> 01:29:22,640 Speaker 5: although I think they do. It's more because Trump is 1771 01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:25,720 Speaker 5: dismantling the approach they have defended for years, which is 1772 01:29:25,760 --> 01:29:32,800 Speaker 5: normalization and engagement and negotiations and glamorizing communism. The Donroe doctrine, 1773 01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:38,600 Speaker 5: it makes that strategy irrelevant. Instead of offering Havana incentives, 1774 01:29:39,040 --> 01:29:42,519 Speaker 5: Trump is using massive leverage. It's the same tool he 1775 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:47,720 Speaker 5: used in Venezuela and even with Denmark over Greenland. To Democrats, 1776 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:51,200 Speaker 5: this is destabilizing. But to Trump, it's how you protect 1777 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:55,800 Speaker 5: America's backyard and you force hostile regimes to crumble under 1778 01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:59,040 Speaker 5: their own weights. And whether critics like it or not, 1779 01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:03,880 Speaker 5: it's the Donro doctrine and it works. You threaten American security, 1780 01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:07,960 Speaker 5: you lose your lifeline. Oh they're all on it now. 1781 01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:08,280 Speaker 15: Yeah. 1782 01:30:08,320 --> 01:30:13,280 Speaker 5: All the cable news is a wash of the news 1783 01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:16,679 Speaker 5: that Don Lemon has been arrested. It's a good Friday. 1784 01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:18,920 Speaker 5: I welcome you in on Open Line Friday. Thanks for 1785 01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:25,800 Speaker 5: listening on AM six seventy in Miami. The aforementioned celebrating 1786 01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:29,560 Speaker 5: the don Roe doctrine in twenty twenty six, Cuba, Mexico, Venezuela. 1787 01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:31,760 Speaker 5: They're all learning the same lesson the hard way. You 1788 01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:35,760 Speaker 5: threaten American security this close to home, and you're going 1789 01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:38,439 Speaker 5: to lose your lifeline. You don't screw around with US. 1790 01:30:38,479 --> 01:30:42,840 Speaker 5: In the Western hemisphere.

Likewise to 1812 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:04,680 Speaker 7: thank you, I'm calling because I'm a little discouraged. 1813 01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:08,479 Speaker 2: I oh, Don Lemon's arrested. 1814 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:15,519 Speaker 7: That's awesome, that is awesome. I'm so glad. You know, 1815 01:32:16,320 --> 01:32:19,320 Speaker 7: shout seems to stay a step ahead of everybody. I'm 1816 01:32:19,360 --> 01:32:24,120 Speaker 7: so glad. He's a great president. But you know, Chris, 1817 01:32:24,160 --> 01:32:27,759 Speaker 7: I'm a Christian and I believe in the Word of God, 1818 01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:33,640 Speaker 7: so I'm I'm also aware that the tribulation is on 1819 01:32:33,840 --> 01:32:38,040 Speaker 7: the agenda too for us, and I don't know if 1820 01:32:38,360 --> 01:32:40,960 Speaker 7: we're in it or the beginning of it, or if 1821 01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:44,680 Speaker 7: we're headed for that. But and I know what the 1822 01:32:45,240 --> 01:32:48,200 Speaker 7: Democrats are trying to do to Trump. They want to 1823 01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:51,440 Speaker 7: get him in a situation where they can impeach him, 1824 01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:54,439 Speaker 7: and that's going to be a nightmare for him. And 1825 01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:57,479 Speaker 7: they say that that will stop him from being able 1826 01:32:57,520 --> 01:33:02,479 Speaker 7: to accomplish much. So well, I'm concerned. I was going 1827 01:33:02,560 --> 01:33:05,519 Speaker 7: to say, Chris, give us some good news, okay, other 1828 01:33:05,600 --> 01:33:10,519 Speaker 7: than Don Lemon. I need some good news because I 1829 01:33:10,560 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 7: am worried about Trump. I'm worried about the future for him. 1830 01:33:16,560 --> 01:33:18,800 Speaker 5: I will tell you this that God already knows how 1831 01:33:18,840 --> 01:33:21,040 Speaker 5: this ends. So as a Christian, Carlene, the thing we 1832 01:33:21,120 --> 01:33:24,719 Speaker 5: must understand is, ever since the day they crucified our Lord, 1833 01:33:24,760 --> 01:33:27,880 Speaker 5: and he rose to be at the Father's right hand. 1834 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:30,800 Speaker 5: We have been in the tribulation ever since. In theory, 1835 01:33:30,800 --> 01:33:33,160 Speaker 5: that's what my pastor likes to remind us. So, yeah, 1836 01:33:33,200 --> 01:33:35,920 Speaker 5: we're in times now, we've always been, and we will 1837 01:33:35,920 --> 01:33:38,760 Speaker 5: be until Christ returns. So i'd put that out of 1838 01:33:38,760 --> 01:33:42,439 Speaker 5: your mind in terms of a timetable. But I also believe, 1839 01:33:42,840 --> 01:33:45,280 Speaker 5: like Proverbs says, that God's going to have his way 1840 01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:50,000 Speaker 5: and steers the hearts of kings like a river. God's 1841 01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:52,280 Speaker 5: in control, He's not surprised by any of this. Let 1842 01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:54,400 Speaker 5: that give you comfort. Let that give you some peace 1843 01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:57,600 Speaker 5: and some happiness. That'll do it for me today. But 1844 01:33:57,680 --> 01:33:59,160 Speaker 5: before I close, I want to tell you about the 1845 01:33:59,200 --> 01:34:01,600 Speaker 5: good people at really Factor who made think Factor for 1846 01:34:01,720 --> 01:34:03,920 Speaker 5: me and you, for those of us who like to 1847 01:34:03,920 --> 01:34:08,920 Speaker 5: stay sharp of mind and focused. It's think Factor. I 1848 01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:11,000 Speaker 5: love this product and I take it every day. I 1849 01:34:11,080 --> 01:34:15,120 Speaker 5: do now. I'd Relief Factor when they made their pain reliever. 1850 01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:17,599 Speaker 5: I don't suffer from pain. I'm thankful when they said, Chris, 1851 01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:19,120 Speaker 5: we don't want you to say anything you don't believe, 1852 01:34:19,160 --> 01:34:21,599 Speaker 5: So if you don't take it, that's fine. Christine has 1853 01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:23,280 Speaker 5: taken it to great effect. But when they came out 1854 01:34:23,320 --> 01:34:27,160 Speaker 5: with a really think Factor to keep your mind focused 1855 01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:29,160 Speaker 5: and sharp. They said, try this and see if you 1856 01:34:29,240 --> 01:34:31,320 Speaker 5: like it. I have been every day, morning and night, 1857 01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:33,880 Speaker 5: and I can tell you this. What I have noticed 1858 01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:36,640 Speaker 5: instantly is that brain fog that I get in the 1859 01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:40,120 Speaker 5: middle of the day has completely dissipated. I've been able 1860 01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:42,400 Speaker 5: to maintain my focus all day long in a way, 1861 01:34:42,439 --> 01:34:45,120 Speaker 5: and I've noticed it, and not because I'm highly caffeinated, 1862 01:34:45,160 --> 01:34:47,559 Speaker 5: but because the only thing differently I've done is think Factor. 1863 01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:50,400 Speaker 5: Get your bottle of it for nineteen ninety five. It'll 1864 01:34:50,400 --> 01:34:52,960 Speaker 5: help you stay sharp and mentally focused to eight hundred 1865 01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:56,280 Speaker 5: to number four relief or relief Factor dot Com.
