I saw, I guess heard a reporter this 62 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: morning say something that NEI nearly made me fall out 63 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: of my seat. He was a CQ roll call reporter. 64 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: That's a new merging media entity that I think usually 65 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: has access to the White House. Porter said, and I 66 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: kid you not Eddie now without me saying a word 67 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: about it. I'm just I'm going to tell you what 68 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: the guy said, and you tell me your instant reaction 69 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: to this. He was lamenting that Donald Trump would headlong 70 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: into Iran without any thinking, and that he didn't have 71 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: a plan, and that he didn't talk to anybody about it. 72 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: And he said, you know what I'm hearing when I 73 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: talk with other people inside the administration or intel officials, 74 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: or of course they never named them, he says, is 75 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: that Barack Obama and George W. Bush they listened to 76 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: intelligence reports and they had thoughtful conversations where intelligence officials 77 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: came and sat down and they talked at great length. 78 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: I don't see as much evidence that this president does 79 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: a lot of sitting and talking and listening to intelligence officials, 80 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: said this CQ Roll Call reporter legitimately criticizing Donald Trump. Now, 81 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: your reaction, as an American citizen to that critique. Donald 82 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: Trump does not listen to the intel like Bush and 83 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: Obama did. 84 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 6: That tells me that reporter being experienced. Yeah, I mean, yes, 85 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 6: the president's the commander in chief. 86 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: But that's that's stupid. That's what you know. Nobody he's 87 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: not gonna say. I would have Bob my ran today 88 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: boom no, come on right, Well, the fact that he 89 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: makes decisions bothers them, that he's a decisive president, that 90 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: he doesn't did there and spend a lot of time 91 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: that bugs them. But specifically, what stood out to me 92 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: about that when I nearly blew coffee out of my 93 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: nose listening to that criticism. You're actually going to hold 94 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:38,119 Speaker 1: the combat missions of George W. Bush and Barack Obama Iraq, Afghanistan, 95 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: the botched withdrawal Afghanistan under Biden. You're going to hold 96 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: those administrations up as virtuous or successful because they listened 97 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: to the intel. What about George W. Bush, Barack Obama, 98 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and the way they've conducted missions overseas over 99 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: the years, what about them have been admirable compared to 100 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: the way Donald Trump is executing his strike on Iran 101 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: serious question? I mean, ed, I don't mean to give 102 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: a history test here, but just kind of your snapshot 103 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: memory of what you know about Barack Obama, Joe Biden, 104 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: and George W. Bush. Would you say that the American 105 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 1: public rate ranks them as wildly successful commanders in chiefs 106 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: in time of war? 107 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 6: It has to be some of the worst foreign policy 108 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 6: I would think in the history of the country. 109 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: I mean most Okay, yeah, yeah, bingo. Good. So then 110 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: for a reporter to say we have no evidence that 111 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is doing the same thoughtful listening that Bush 112 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: and Obama did, does that mean a whole hell of 113 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: a lot to you? 114 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 6: Absolutely not. I can't believe I jumped right over that. Yeah, 115 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 6: this person's crediting George W. 116 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: Bush too. Yeah, sorry about that. Hey, no, no, no, no, 117 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: that's okay. I just wondered if you caught that, because I, 118 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,559 Speaker 1: like I said, snorted coffee right out of my nose 119 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: listening to that. Yes, the very thoughtful George W. Bush 120 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 1: listen to intelligence officion no evidence to Trump. Now, having 121 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: said all that, listen, I get this. I do understand 122 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 1: there's some real ugliness associated with combat, no doubt about it. 123 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,679 Speaker 1: And you know this report, and we haven't really gotten 124 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: into it yet, that this school of some one hundred 125 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: and sixty children in Iran was inadvertently accidentally hit. John Kennedy, 126 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: Senator from Louisiana, give me number seven, if you would please. 127 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: In clip seven, John Kennedy says, yeah, in fact, I 128 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: think that was our doing. I think we struck that 129 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: school take a listen. 130 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 7: But I think it was a horrible, horrible mistake. I 131 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 7: wish it hadn't happened. I'm sorry it happened. I can 132 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 7: assure it wasn't intentional. That's not that's the sort of 133 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 7: thing Russia to us. 134 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 3: We don't do that. 135 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 7: But you know, I don't see any other possible explanation. 136 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 7: And when you make a mistake, you ought to admit it. 137 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 7: Most people understand the one perfect. But I don't think 138 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 7: our men and women who are fighting force didn't intentionally. 139 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: I'll never believe that. Well, of course they didn't, and 140 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: anyone suggesting they did is disgusting. And I don't know 141 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: that there's any official denial that that happened. They're still 142 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: taking a look at it. President Trump said, listen, it's 143 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: Tomahawk missile. We're not the only ones with them, but 144 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: we want to be clear as to who did it. 145 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: But yeah, that is one of those ugly things. We 146 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: now have seven dead service personnel, seven dead heroes who've 147 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: come home to Dover because of this act. Reuters has 148 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: as many as one hundred and fifty US troops wounded 149 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: so far in the war. Sources say, now again, I 150 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: just as many as one hundred and fifty US troops 151 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: have been wounded in the ten day war with Iran. 152 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: Two people familiar with the matter telling routers so again unofficial. 153 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: Every time I read sources familiar go unquoted. I'm not 154 00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: really comfortable with it. But is it true that war 155 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: is hell and there is death that comes with that? 156 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: There is? But is it also true? And again just 157 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: historically that hundreds, maybe thousands of Americans have died at 158 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: the hands of this Iranian regime through many presidencies over 159 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: the last forty seven years, none of whom have actually 160 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: taken any real actions to stop it like Donald Trump. 161 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: Is that's also true? I said that yesterday on social media. 162 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: I continue to hear that the coalition of young Trump 163 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: voters are very disenchanted, very displeased, very upset with Donald 164 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 1: Trump's decision to strike Iran, to which I say, I'm 165 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: sure that's true. But how many of them are aware 166 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: of the Iranian regime's history? And we kind of got 167 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: into that a little bit yesterday ed just how many 168 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: young people who voted for Donald Trump enthusiastically and may 169 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: say they're unhappy with him striking Iran. If you put 170 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 1: a test in front of them. How many of them 171 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 1: do you think would pass it? In terms of the 172 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: history of Iran, our dealings with Iran, the deadliness of Iran, 173 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: the havoc that they've reaked in the Middle East, How 174 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: many young Americans who voted for Trump would be able 175 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: to pass that test do you think? 176 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 6: I don't think many, Chris, because I mean I can 177 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 6: speak even for myself. In college and I graduated in 178 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 6: eight we weren't really taught the history of what's happened 179 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 6: in Iran in the past forty years either, So I 180 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 6: don't think many would. 181 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: Yea, I think you're right about that. Donald Trump has 182 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: made a decision not because of politics, not because of polls, 183 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 1: not because of the young vote, not because of intelligence necessarily, 184 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: although I'm certain he's listening to intelligence, I'm not suggesting 185 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: he's not. I think John Ratliffe has been in the room, 186 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: the CIA director, for every decision that's been made. All 187 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: the situation room pictures that I've seen feature him and 188 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: the intellificials gathered around Trump. But Trump is the decider, 189 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: as Bush used to call him. Michael Schellenberger, great journalist 190 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: over at Substack, just gave an interview here recently I 191 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 1: came across this. He was talking about this very thing 192 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: that you can be critical of Trump about a lot 193 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: of things, but the idea that somebody else leads him 194 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: around by the nose, like the criticism, I guess is 195 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 1: that somebody else is telling Trump to do it. Trump 196 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't make these decisions if somebody else wasn't telling him 197 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: to do it. Shallenberger says, no, that's not true. Give 198 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 1: me number five here. 199 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 8: I think this president has shown whether you like him 200 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 8: or not, you know, and there's certainly things that I'm 201 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 8: unhappy about and have criticized, but I think Trump is 202 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 8: in charge. 203 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: Like he's making these decisions. 204 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 3: There's nobody behind him. 205 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 8: There's nobody going to be point for all of that, 206 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 8: you know, the Russians or whoever sometho you know he 207 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 8: is now the Israelis. 208 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 3: You know, it's just he's clearly. 209 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 8: I mean, Elon gave him, you know, two hundred and 210 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 8: fifty million dollars and he's still you know, he didn't 211 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 8: give him even the electric car credit, you know, like 212 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 8: like Trump is in charge, you know, Like I think 213 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 8: that's one of the big lessons from this. 214 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: And I don't think that. 215 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 8: I think that means that there's not a lot of 216 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 8: like second order things here, like oh, what's the move 217 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 8: after that? 218 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 3: He doesn't know, he's just acting. 219 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 8: That's what's so wild about is that this older foreign 220 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 8: policy establishment, which you know, was like, let the experts 221 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 8: decide what the right foreign you know, all these things tanks, 222 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 8: and that's just gone. 223 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: Now, well back to what I heard this morning, the 224 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 1: CQ roll call guy criticizing Donald Trump because the intel 225 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: community doesn't have the loudest voice of the biggest influence. 226 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is actually a chief executive, and he's making 227 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: decisions like an executive. He's taking in all sides. He's 228 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: even acknowledged that JD. Vans, his vice president, maybe sees 229 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: this a bit differently that he does. Fundamentally they share 230 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: the same point of view, but maybe they see the 231 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: strategy or whatever. We don't know. He didn't really go 232 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: into great detail the differences they see. But Donald Trump 233 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: and people see it. People who are honest see it. 234 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: This isn't Donald Trump being led around by the nose 235 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: by apparatricks in Washington, d C. Career bureaucrats are intellipace 236 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: or warhawks like Linda I don't think Lindsey Graham has 237 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's ear. I think Donald Trump evaluates the situation. 238 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: He looks out at the world as we live in 239 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: it today. He has seen the past troubles of past presidents. 240 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: He has decades on tape of things he said about 241 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 1: Iran and foreign policy in the stupidity of the foreign 242 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: policy of this country. He hasn't forgotten those things. But 243 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: he's trying to leave real, meaningful, impactful, lasting change for 244 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: free people, both here at home and around the world. 245 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: He's the decider, and I, for one him thrilled to 246 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: have a strong chief executive. Eight five five stigalls our 247 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: telephone numbers, we get underway here. On the Wednesday edition 248 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: of The Stagall Show, Glad to have You So, Rogan 249 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: says he's disappointed that he feels betrayed with Donald Trump 250 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 1: going to war in Iran or blowing the hell out 251 00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: of Iran, however you want to phrase it. 252 00:12:59,400 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 9: Now. 253 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: I didn't listen to the entire Rogan podcast, so I 254 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: don't know exactly what he said or the context in 255 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: which he said it. I suspect if Joe Rogan were 256 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: here and I asked him, would you have had it 257 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: any other way, would you have voted for Kamala Harris 258 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: over Donald Trump. I think he would have said no. 259 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: I think he'd still say no. I think he'd still 260 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: say he'd vote for Donald Trump. But here's what I 261 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: do think, and it's just true. And we've talked about 262 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: this well before today. I would like to see this 263 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 1: president maybe when things calm down a little bit, and 264 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: he says that soon it will certainly not in the 265 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: middle of conducting this campaign, but when it raps or 266 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: comes closer to rapping. Wouldn't you like to see President 267 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: Trump go on a blitz of these shows the way 268 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 1: he did, and sit down and talk to guys like 269 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan. I don't think they should bunker or hide 270 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: from the people that brought them to the dance. And 271 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 1: a lot of these alternative forms of media are what 272 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: did it pushed them over the time, There's no doubt 273 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: about it. So go on these shows, go toe to 274 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: toe with people that have been fair I don't mean 275 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: people that have turned insane. And you know the difference, 276 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,839 Speaker 1: and the White House knows the difference. But go ahead 277 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: and sit and talk to Joe Rogan and explain to 278 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: him the arrogance is if I may. And I've got 279 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: to be careful here, those of us in media, whatever 280 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: it is we do, whether it's a podcast or a 281 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: show like this one on radio or television, or whatever 282 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,359 Speaker 1: it is you do in media, there is a tendency, 283 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: obviously for attention to declare things with certainty that maybe, 284 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: just maybe you may not have the full picture of. 285 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: And I feel like I'm one of the few hosts 286 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: left who's willing to admit to you. And I learned 287 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: this a long time ago in politics, it's better to 288 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: acknowledge what you don't know than pretend you know for 289 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: certain what you're saying and then look like a fool 290 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: later when it's proven. I think Mark Twain had a 291 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: similar quote. I'm not reinventing the wheel here, but once 292 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: I've told this story before, Eddie likes this story. I once, 293 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: while working for a member of Congress, was out in 294 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: the field talking to a constituent, and this constituent asked 295 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: me something very specific about the congressman's opinion on a 296 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: particular matter, and I, thinking as a young buck, I 297 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 1: had to have the answer I needed to sound smart, 298 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: took it upon myself to answer the question in the 299 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: affirmative and basically answer on behalf of the congressman. And 300 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: as it turns out, I was completely wrong. Not only 301 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: did I not know what I was talking about, I 302 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: took the opposite point of view from the congressman and 303 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: I caught hell. Chief of staff called me in, dressed 304 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 1: me down and say, if you don't know the answer 305 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: to something, you say I don't know the answer to something, 306 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: I'll get back to you as soon as I go 307 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: find authorities who do, and I'll relay that information to you. 308 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: Don't just pretend you know. So, with all due respect, 309 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: may I just say there are a lot of hosts 310 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: pretending they know and they don't have the full picture. 311 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: Guess who does. The chief decider, the commander in chief 312 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: of armed forces, has all the information and he's the 313 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: best communicator that they have. So I think he should 314 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: start to explain soon why he reached the decisions he's reached. 315 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: For a minute, good to be with you this morning 316 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: on AM nine fifty The Answer in Orlando, Florida.

I was just 329 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: thinking about being thirsty last week, And to most of us, 330 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: that means going to the sink, turning on the fallset, 331 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: getting a clean glass of water. Throughout poor countries in 332 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: our own hemisphere. Here in the Western Hemisphere, children are 333 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: literally dying because they don't have clean, living water. That 334 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: is the story of an untold I would imagine thousands, 335 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: maybe more. I shudder to think of the number of 336 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 1: people like Father Dominic and Haiti speaking through a Food 337 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 1: for the Poor interpreter. Just listen to this. 338 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 10: I think one of the biggest challenges that we have 339 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 10: as a community is water. We don't have any water 340 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 10: to drink people. We have to wait for the rain 341 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 10: to fall, and that's when we really have water to drink. 342 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 10: Right now, the community has no water to drink. 343 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: But what I know about this audience, and I want 344 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: to just say from the outside, we launched our Food 345 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: for the Poor campaign here a couple of days ago, 346 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: and your generosity is already just unbridled, and I thank 347 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: you for it. Last year, the very first time I 348 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 1: talked about Food for the Poor and I had the 349 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: privilege of doing this and talk about them. I met 350 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 1: with them over a zoom call, that is, the whole 351 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: team at Food for the Poor. They shared with me 352 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: the mission work they do, and I shared with some 353 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: of my team conversation. In conversation, well, I should say, 354 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 1: they shared with me the stories their experiences of going 355 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: there and being on the ground and watching Food for 356 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: the Poor at work. And then I started really digging 357 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: in and asking a lot of questions. I said, I 358 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: want to get a better sense of what you do 359 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: and how you spend your money, and can I tell 360 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: you something I've never and this is the truth. I 361 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 1: typically when I give a buck or two to charity, 362 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: I don't really look much into charities or where the 363 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: money goes. But I said to them listen. You and 364 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 1: I've not worked together before, but I know you've worked 365 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 1: for years with the Saleam Media Group, my parent company. 366 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: This is my first time I'm asking my audience to give, 367 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 1: and I want to be sure I understand where the 368 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: money goes and how you use it. What I learned 369 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: about this organization and I encourage you to do the 370 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: same research is they can take a dollar and do 371 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: miracles with it. If you wonder, when I give, does 372 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: this charity use it for a bunch of administrative stuff 373 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: or whatever. No, sir, no, ma'am. Our friends at the 374 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,239 Speaker 1: Christian nonprofit Food for the Poor take fifty dollars and 375 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: can provide two needy kids with safe and living water 376 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: for an entire year. That's the truth. Fifty dollars two 377 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: kids get fresh water for a whole year. So you 378 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: do one hundred bucks to Food for the Poor. That's 379 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: the same blessing for a family of four. And at 380 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: the same time, the most important work they do is 381 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: give it the living water of Jesus and the written 382 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: Word of God, a gospel centered transformation through their trusted 383 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: local partners on the ground. This is a real, tangible, 384 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 1: measurable impact. I know things feel sometimes frustrating dire. Your 385 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: blood pressure can rise, your frustration can rise. This is 386 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: one of those things that as people of God, we 387 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 1: can do something tangible, real to touch the lives of 388 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: people who have absolutely nothing. And this audience stepped up 389 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 1: in such a huge way last year, and I know 390 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: we're going to again. And I told them that I 391 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: felt very very confident. I had no doubt in my mind. 392 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, we were going to hit 393 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: our goal this year. And I told them. They asked me, 394 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: they set a goal last year for us because it 395 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: was our first campaign. They said, do you think you 396 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 1: can do forty thousand dollars to help us with our 397 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: ministry and our mission work there? And I said, I 398 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 1: don't know. This audience last year blew it up. I mean, 399 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: you darn near doubled that. And I said, listen, I 400 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: feel very very good that this audience understands the work 401 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: you do now. And I feel very very good in 402 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: asking them for help. A fifty A gift of fifty 403 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: dollars or in any amount, enables at risk kids to 404 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: have safe and living water. So if you can help today, 405 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: as we launch this week our twenty twenty six food 406 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: for the Poor campaign.

He is of no 498 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: help to this administration and would do well to just 499 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 1: bow out and stay out of this discussion. He does 500 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: sound like a guy that's constantly flexing with the blood 501 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: and treasure of the American people. You notice that he 502 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: always sounds like a tough guy who's willing to send 503 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: any amount of It's very biden Esque. Whatever it takes, 504 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 1: as long as it takes. And you made a great 505 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: observation yesterday that I didn't give you credit for, and 506 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: I want to. You reminded me that the Husk was 507 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: constantly saying whatever it takes, as long as it takes 508 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: in Ukraine, and the Left cheered it. In fact, to 509 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: this day they would tell you they wear their little 510 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: Ukraine flagpen and say right on, whatever it takes as 511 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: long as it takes. That was the stated mission of 512 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, and we as a show certainly rejected that 513 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,479 Speaker 1: and said that's not an answer. Whatever it takes, as 514 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: long as it takes, is not an answer. Pete Hagsith 515 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: and this president have gone to great lengths to say 516 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: that is not our position. Whatever it takes, as long 517 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: as it takes, we decide. But this isn't going to 518 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 1: be a protracted quagmire like the Bush era. Then along 519 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: comes a guy like Lindsay Graham ed and he makes 520 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: you feel like, whatever it takes, as long as it takes, 521 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: protracted quagmire. That's the feeling he elicited. 522 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 9: Dent. 523 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 6: No, absolutely, and unfortunately, unfortunately, like so, my family has 524 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 6: to deal with me, you know, reviewing cuts and everything 525 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 6: news going into the show, and yeah, I pull that 526 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 6: clip up, I pull that clip up of Lindsay Graham, 527 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 6: and I'm just previewing it and I'm sitting there. My 528 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 6: wife's just like, oh my gosh, what is this guy's 529 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 6: deal because she remembers, you know, the twenty sixteen debate 530 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 6: when the stage was really big, and he's like, yeah, 531 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 6: well we need to go into Syria with thirty thousand troops. 532 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: He's the only one saying that things like it's lunacy. 533 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: You're exactly right, the guy is. He's a lunatic. He's 534 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 1: not just a warhawk. He sounds like a lunatic. And 535 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: he lends credibility to the pushback that President Trump is 536 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: receiving from otherwise supportive corners because he sounds like he's 537 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 1: an authoritative position to speak on behalf of the Trump administration. 538 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: He's not. He's not an official spokesperson for this administration. 539 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: And I wish he'd shut the hell up and understand 540 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 1: the damage he does. And then he's not being helpful. 541 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: I have a feeling he won't, and Fox continues to 542 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: invite him. By the way, if we ever have the chance, 543 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: just cancel the interview. I don't care.

His name is Connor. 593 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: Connor has come into the family business as well. And 594 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: so now here's Bob who's been a friend of mine 595 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: for the longest time, and his daughter who's practicing alongside him, 596 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: and his son in law in the same field, practicing 597 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: they've been expecting.

I can tell you that 604 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: if there was a guy that was built to be 605 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: a grandpa, it's my friend and my Dennis.

So congrats to all of them. I just 627 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: thought that was the coolest. I got a picture of 628 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: him this morning on the phone. Eh, that's cool, all right, 629 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: eight five five Stagall's my telephone number. One more thing, 630 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to address this. I'm going to try to 631 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: get all the negative Nancy stuff out of the way. 632 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: Here in the hour the first hour, Ted Cruz addressing 633 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: some kind of Israeli group or Jewish group yesterday and 634 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: I came across this on social media and I addressed it, 635 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: give me number four if you would please quickly. Gee. 636 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 12: But in the college classroom, I'm a lot less certain, 637 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 12: and it is being spread by loud voices, the most 638 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 12: consequential of whom. 639 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: Is Tucker Carlson. 640 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 12: I believe Tucker Carlson is the single most dangerous amagogue 641 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 12: in this country. 642 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: All right, I'm just going to say I'm breaking my 643 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: pledge a little bit in talking about other shows. But 644 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: in this case I have to step in and say 645 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: to Senator Cruz, much like Senator Graham on this sh 646 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: no speaker, no need for this. Free speech is allowed. 647 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 1: We can tolerate, and we can live with it. More speech, 648 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: combating absurd speech is what's necessary and needed, not silencing speech. 649 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: Speech is not dangerous. Senator, Let's not go down that path. 650 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: That's all. I don't know about you. If you have 651 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: yo yo dieted all of your life, I certainly have 652 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: keto paleo weight watchers, intermittent fasting. You lose weight, and 653 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: I have. I've lost dramatic amounts of weight before, only 654 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: to gain it back and then some. And you probably 655 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: kick yourself for it, and you think it's all about 656 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: your own willpower and your own lack of discipline. Look, 657 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: maybe Eire's some of that, but the real truth of 658 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: it is it was not strictly about willpower. There is 659 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: one thing only that determines whether you're body burns fat 660 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 1: or stores fat. And if you don't know how to 661 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: fix that, every diet you're ever going to try fails. 662 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:12,320 Speaker 1: That's all that changed for me was looking at it differently, 663 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 1: and PhD Weight Loss told me how to look at 664 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: it differently. Doctor Ashley Lucas and I started talking about 665 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: her program and why it's worked so well for some 666 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: of my colleagues, and how she's different. And so when 667 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,320 Speaker 1: I went on this program last year and I began 668 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 1: to eat real food, I didn't have to take any 669 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: kind of shots or any kind of gimmicky drugs or 670 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: anything like that. It was just purely understanding how my 671 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: body best metabolizes food, when to eat, what to eat, 672 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 1: and not starving myself. By the way, And here's the deal. 673 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: You start to have real victories quickly, and I lost 674 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 1: over forty pounds in under four months time. Fast Eddie, 675 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,479 Speaker 1: our executive producer, was so impressed with it. He said, 676 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind trying it. I said, how much you 677 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: want to lose, he said, fifty pounds. So we dialed 678 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,240 Speaker 1: up Ashley Lucas and I said, can lose fifty pounds 679 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: along with me here, and she said, oh absolutely, Let's 680 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: give it till May. So he started the program. Folks, 681 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: he is already halfway to his goal after just thirteen 682 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 1: weeks or so. So, I mean, you're talking about over 683 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: twenty five pounds in a matter of weeks. That could 684 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: be your story. 685 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 3: Now. 686 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,479 Speaker 1: I have managed to lose that kind of weight last 687 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: year and coming into a new year keeping that weight off. 688 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 1: That's the first time in my weight loss history that 689 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: I've lost that kind of weight and maintained the weight loss. 690 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,479 Speaker 1: Because at PhD Weight Loss they've identified that one thing 691 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: about your system that you can kick into action and 692 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: help you lose that weight and keep the body working 693 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 1: for you, not against you.

But I today really over the last couple 739 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: of days, but today in earnest we kicked off our 740 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 1: Food for the Poor campaign to help give living water 741 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: to these folks who so desperately need it throughout Latin 742 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: America and the Caribbean. They work with over a dozen 743 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: nations of some of the most extreme, extraordinary poverty you've 744 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 1: ever seen. And one of the things that they do 745 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: is get water to these people who otherwise have to 746 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: walk miles for any semblance of clean water, or in 747 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: fact don't have access to it at all. It's just 748 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: it's hard to impress upon folks how devastating it is 749 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: until you see it in person. And I told you 750 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: yesterday that my daughter is going on a second mission 751 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: trip for the year to the Dominican this summer, and 752 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,839 Speaker 1: I'm so proud of her. And one of the things 753 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: that she came home to say is, Dad, I just 754 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: feel almost guilty for the blessings that we have. And 755 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 1: I understood what she meant. She didn't literally mean guilty 756 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: in the sense we were doing anything wrong, but the 757 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: abundance that we enjoy that God has blessed us this country. 758 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 1: Even the most impoverished in this country are blessed compared 759 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 1: to the poverty that Food for the Poor and the 760 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: people they help experience, and just good old fashioned running water, 761 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: fresh water. Do you know that we're again for fifty dollars, 762 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 1: you can get drinking water to two people, two children, 763 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: who need drinking water for an entire year. That's what 764 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: Food for the Poor can do with a buck. Fifty dollars, 765 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: two kids a whole year, fresh drinking water. That's just two. 766 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: You double that and you do one hundred dollars gift. 767 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,919 Speaker 1: You're talking about four people, a family, four with fresh 768 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,399 Speaker 1: drinking water for an entire year. That's what your gift 769 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 1: can do today. And you guys have been just stepping 770 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: up and giving. I can't say thank you. Phyllis just 771 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 1: gave one hundred dollars in Hendersonville. Jim just gave in 772 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: Orlando and he said, thank you, Chris for all you do. 773 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 1: Good day, sir, listen, thank you sincerely. It means more 774 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: to me than I can say. 775 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 3: I know. 776 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: These Food for the Poor folks. They stopped me a 777 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:28,360 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago when I bumped into them at 778 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,320 Speaker 1: the National Religious Broadcasters Association, and they said, would you 779 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,879 Speaker 1: please tell your audience we are still buzzing about their 780 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: generosity from last year. You don't know what a blessing 781 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: they were to us. It was a game changer. And 782 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: I said, I haven't any doubt that's true, and I 783 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: haven't any doubt they're going to step up and do 784 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 1: it again this year. I know the work they do. 785 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: You can research them, and I want you to. I 786 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: would never ask you to give to an organization that 787 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: I don't implicitly trust and know is going to do 788 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: good work and most of all God's work with your donations. 789 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: So if you would, if you can whatever amount, I 790 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 1: don't care what it is. It doesn't have to be fifty, 791 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 1: it can be ten, it can be five. But if 792 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 1: you can help these good people at Food for the Poor, 793 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 1: this is what we can do. We can be a 794 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: blessing at a time when things seem dark, confusing, frustrating 795 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: and the rest and we get caught up in politics. 796 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:20,880 Speaker 1: This is one of those things you can really do 797 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: in a positive way to be a light for Christ 798 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 1: and really make an impact and feel good about what 799 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: you've done. By the way, every nickelot's tax deductible. Two 800 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 1: not why you do it, I know, but just wanted 801 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 1: to let you know that you thousand dollars givers.

Now, whatever you think of her, 831 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 1: I don't think we think stop and consider enough what 832 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 1: kind of dress, what kind of threats she's living with? 833 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,239 Speaker 1: And when The New York Times writes it, you know 834 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 1: it's got to be serious. Is there no fans of hers? 835 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: For sure? Or this administration? Attorney General Pam Bondi has 836 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: quietly did you know this? I hadn't heard anything about her. 837 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 1: She hasn't really been on our minds much because we've 838 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 1: been talking mostly about Iran. Pam Bondi has quietly relocated 839 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,800 Speaker 1: to one of several military bases in the Washington area 840 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 1: where other Trump administration officials are also living. After facing 841 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: threats from drug cartels and critics of her actions of 842 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 1: handling the Jeffrey Epstein case. Now, Eddie, whatever you think 843 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: of the Epstein case, the drug cartel thing is one thing, 844 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 1: but there are people actually threatening her life over the 845 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: Epstein stuff, and so much so she feels she's got 846 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 1: to go live in military barracks for safety. How does 847 00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 1: that sit with you? 848 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 6: That's horrible, man, That's this is someone tasked with doing, yes, 849 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 6: a very hard job, a very important job. That's disgusting 850 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 6: that she because the thing is, will she ever be 851 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 6: able to live freely again after that? 852 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: It's scary. It's I do on a link it. One 853 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 1: catalyst was an increase in threats following the capture and 854 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 1: prosecution of Nicholas Maduro in Venezuela. MS Bondi is the 855 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 1: latest administration official to move into heavily guarded quarters at 856 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 1: military facilities in or near the nation's capital, after citing 857 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 1: danger from criminals, adversaries overseas, and protesters. Well, I mean, 858 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: you just had two Islamists try to lob IEDs into 859 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,720 Speaker 1: a crowd of protesters out in front of the mayor's mansion, 860 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: Gracie Manor. I was corrected yesterday. I got many notes 861 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: on that irritated New Yorkers that I called it Gracie Mansion. 862 00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 1: My apologies, I don't care really enough to learn it. 863 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: But okay, duly noted and corrected Gracie manor too wackos 864 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 1: left wing ideologues gie Hottists, self radicalized here in the 865 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 1: United States, go to New York and try to lob 866 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:20,280 Speaker 1: explosive devices into a peaceful protest, a peaceful protest against 867 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:24,319 Speaker 1: the Islamification of the country, and the Mayor of New 868 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 1: York effectively excuses them. I mean, yeah, he gives some 869 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,879 Speaker 1: sort of lip service to but then basically says, well, 870 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:37,280 Speaker 1: the protesters had it coming, and it is the potential bombers, 871 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: the radical gie Hottists, the terrorist kids. It is they 872 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 1: for whom we should feel sorry. They were just trying 873 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,760 Speaker 1: to right or wrong or some such thing on behalf 874 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 1: of Islam. Right. So that's what we're dealing with domestically, 875 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 1: a media that is willing to kind of whitewash this 876 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: story and sell it as a couple of youths out 877 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 1: trying to enjoy the weather. I mean, it was disgusting 878 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:05,759 Speaker 1: the way the media spun this story. I'm sure you 879 00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: read and saw all the headlines of the way they 880 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 1: twisted and contorted this story. They've been romanticizing terrorists like this, 881 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,240 Speaker 1: terrorists like the kid that killed the health insurance executive. 882 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: The left is a death cult. They're a murderous, threatening, 883 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 1: menacing death cult. And do you know how effective the 884 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 1: Trump administration is in dealing with them and tackling them. 885 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 1: They have to go move into military barracks for protection. 886 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: That's the story of this administration and the people doing 887 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 1: this work that you're not being told. And I do 888 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 1: credit the New York Times for actually telling this story. 889 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 1: I hadn't heard this. Had you heard this, Ed, I'd 890 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 1: not heard that we had Trump administration officials living under 891 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:50,320 Speaker 1: military protection because of their threat level. No, this was 892 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 1: the first I heard of it. And now it makes 893 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 1: me wonder what else is going on? Who else is 894 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: going through this? Tom Holman? And to their credit, they're 895 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: not running around crying about it. But yeah, Tom Holman, 896 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: you can damn sure bet we don't hear about it. 897 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 1: Tom's a tough guy. They're not crying about it. They're 898 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: still going about their work. That's the thing that's what 899 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:13,800 Speaker 1: just infuriates me. These men and women, by and large, 900 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: I've met a good number of them now, just in 901 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: this last year, and I can tell you they are intentional, 902 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 1: mission focused, smart, personable people who want the best for 903 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: the country. Most of them have come out of the 904 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,840 Speaker 1: private sector to try to make an impact for the 905 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: greater good, genuinely impact the country, and then return to 906 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,840 Speaker 1: their private lives. That's what most of these people. I 907 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: can't speak to the heart and intention of everybody inside 908 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,800 Speaker 1: the Trump administration, but I feel like as a fairly 909 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,360 Speaker 1: decent judge of character, these are people that could have 910 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: been out making millions of dollars in the private sector, 911 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 1: all by themselves, doing whatever, and you'd never hear of them. 912 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 1: And they don't need to trouble themselves or disrupt their 913 00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 1: lives or leave their families, and yet they've done so. 914 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: Now what we're learning is great personal cost. Can you 915 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 1: imagine having to live under military guard just for carrying 916 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 1: out the law, ensuring drug cartels are punished, illegal aliens 917 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 1: are kicked out of the country. It's it's sick, it's 918 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:20,400 Speaker 1: a dark time. These people are under tremendous stress. We 919 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:22,800 Speaker 1: pray for them.

Kansas 996 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:45,239 Speaker 1: City stop number one. They're there right now. That cool, Yes, No, 997 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:46,160 Speaker 1: And I got to get to that. 998 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 6: For the World War One Museum, I really really want. 999 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,600 Speaker 1: To get there. I commend it to you, and I'll 1000 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 1: tell you it's every bit as good as a Smithsonian museum. 1001 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 1: If you've not been, do make it a point to 1002 00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:59,359 Speaker 1: go see it. The Truman Museum is a really great 1003 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 1: The Trubman Libebrarian Museum is great. And that World War 1004 00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: One it's the official World War One memorial in museum 1005 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 1: in the country. There is not one actually in Washington DC. 1006 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: And this is like a Washington d C. Caliber one 1007 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: there in Kansas City. So anyway, that's where the founding 1008 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: documents have stopped on stop number one. They're traveling around 1009 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 1: the country. In fact, I'm going to get more information 1010 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:26,400 Speaker 1: for you on that and share it with you because 1011 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:27,880 Speaker 1: if you happen to be in a city where these 1012 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 1: are traveling, what a cool experience. And you don't have 1013 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,279 Speaker 1: to actually go to Washington, d C. To see it. 1014 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 1: So we'll share more of that with you coming up. 1015 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,759 Speaker 1: I just wanted to quickly put a bow on this 1016 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 1: story because again, we had some glitches earlier and I 1017 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 1: just I didn't want to miss this because I wanted 1018 00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 1: to close the loop. On my point, I brought up 1019 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:54,280 Speaker 1: specifically the murder really of Corporal Timothy O'Connor junior, aged forty, 1020 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania State Police officers Sunday and what's being described as 1021 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,320 Speaker 1: a murder suicide. The guy involved in it as a 1022 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,920 Speaker 1: thirty two year old named Jesse Nathan Elks of Honeybrook, Pennsylvania. 1023 00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:10,760 Speaker 1: Investigators say the state police officer O'Connor stopped a vehicle 1024 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,479 Speaker 1: after reports of erratic driving. Police say this guy Jesse 1025 00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:19,320 Speaker 1: Nathan Elks opened fire from inside the vehicle, striking O'Connor 1026 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: exited the vehicle before shooting himself with a pistol, and 1027 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 1: they looked into who this guy. This Esse Nathan Elks 1028 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: guy is publicly available. Photos from his Facebook account include 1029 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 1: phrases such as forever comrade, free Palestine, no war but 1030 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:47,360 Speaker 1: class war, and no borders, no cops, no cages. So 1031 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 1: this thirty two year old Jesse Nathan Elks of Honeybrook, Pennsylvania, 1032 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:57,359 Speaker 1: shot and killed an officer of the law and as 1033 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 1: a left wing committed wacko. He's thirty two. I just 1034 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,319 Speaker 1: told you Pam Bondi is living under military protection right now. 1035 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 1: So it's not just drug gang. She's dealing with these 1036 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,480 Speaker 1: narco traffickers and terrorists that they've been blowing the drug 1037 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,440 Speaker 1: boats out of the water and Maduro and the likes 1038 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 1: of that. But she's dealing with domestic terrorism too. It's 1039 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: very real. Whether it's this Luigi Mangione guy who's assassinating 1040 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,320 Speaker 1: a health insurance executive, or whether it's these two radical 1041 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:30,239 Speaker 1: jihattists from Pennsylvania, these teenagers who self radicalized and tried 1042 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 1: to blow up protesters over the weekend or whether it's 1043 00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 1: on this same Sunday a Pennsylvania guy named Jesse Nathan 1044 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:42,880 Speaker 1: Elks who shot and killed a state trooper and was 1045 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 1: a committed leftist, forever comrade, free Palestine, no war, but 1046 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:51,359 Speaker 1: class war. This is who the left is and it's 1047 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 1: it's sick. As a matter of fact. From the Daily 1048 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,760 Speaker 1: Wire to the point. As the twenty twenty six midterm 1049 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 1: elections approached, Democrat are fighting to claim the majority in 1050 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: one or both chambers of Congress. But according to a 1051 00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:08,400 Speaker 1: recent poll, the Democrat Party is polling below almost every 1052 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 1: key figure and organization, with the exception of the Iranian regime. 1053 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 1: Sounds about right. An NBC News poll published earlier We 1054 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 1: read some of those numbers earlier in the week. Asked 1055 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:21,920 Speaker 1: a number of standard questions on the military and the 1056 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 1: like overall performance thus far of Donald Trump. It also 1057 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 1: ranked a number of key figures and organizations based on 1058 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:31,359 Speaker 1: their net favorability. The Democrat Party, with a net favorability 1059 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 1: rating of minus twenty two, ranked near the bottom of 1060 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:38,839 Speaker 1: the list. In fact, only the Iranian regime ranked below Democrats. 1061 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:48,560 Speaker 1: Sounds about right. A murderous authoritarian theocracy, a global caliphate 1062 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,279 Speaker 1: for terror is the only thing less popular than the 1063 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 1: Democrat Party in the United States. Their following given their voters, 1064 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:06,280 Speaker 1: sounds about right. That's who they are. It's a death cult. 1065 00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: They're lunatic death cult crusaders. Whether it's abortion, whether it's jihad, 1066 00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 1: whether it's this Marxist lunatic stuff where they're killing officers 1067 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 1: of the law, whether it's standing up for illegal aliens. 1068 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 1: They're destructive as hell. And so you tell me Donald 1069 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:33,440 Speaker 1: Trump is losing support from his base. Well, as he 1070 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 1: said in the State of the Union, these people are crazy. 1071 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 1: Stand up if you believe our first obligation is to 1072 00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 1: protect the citizens of the United States, and they sit. 1073 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 1: That's who Democrats are. And you tell me Donald Trump 1074 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 1: is losing support, folks, I'm sorry. I just maybe that's 1075 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 1: what shakes out. Maybe the midterms show us that the 1076 00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:56,520 Speaker 1: Democrats winning or route. But I'm not there. I don't 1077 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: see any evidence to see that the American people say, oh, well, 1078 00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:01,400 Speaker 1: that's a group of people I want to follow the 1079 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: Democrat Party. I see no evidence of that. All right, 1080 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: we are really thrilled to partner with our friends at 1081 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 1: the Herzog Foundation. If you don't know about them, go 1082 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:16,240 Speaker 1: to Herzog Foundation dot Com and learn more. These people 1083 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 1: do fantastic work nationwide, catalyzing and growing Christian education, encouraging homeschool, podschool, 1084 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 1: alternative forms of education for kids wherever you live, all 1085 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:31,040 Speaker 1: across the country. If you're a Christian school organization, you 1086 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 1: love working with them. They have put together a series 1087 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 1: called Faith and Freedom to fifty, celebrating the Christian traditions 1088 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 1: of this country as we approach that two hundred and 1089 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 1: fiftieth birthday I was just talking about. Here's just a 1090 00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 1: sampling of what they do. Take a listen. 1091 00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 14: The United States of America was founded on a bedrock 1092 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 14: of religious principles. Now this may see him out of 1093 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:06,040 Speaker 14: step with what the media and mainstream education system have 1094 00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:10,720 Speaker 14: promoted for generations, but it is an undeniable truth. 1095 00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 4: From the earliest settlement of North America, over a century 1096 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:18,960 Speaker 4: before the American Revolution, this continent was developed by people 1097 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 4: seeking religious freedom. The story of how America was populated 1098 00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 4: and built is a story of faith, Faith in God 1099 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 4: and faith in each other. Faith in a society not 1100 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:36,160 Speaker 4: governed by kings, but by neighbors, by those who shared 1101 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,360 Speaker 4: in the same struggles and joys of life. 1102 00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 15: In sixteen thirty, John Winthrop delivered his famous City on 1103 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 15: a Hill sermon to settlers about to land in the 1104 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 15: New World. 1105 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 16: He urged, we. 1106 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:51,680 Speaker 15: Must delight in each other, make others' conditions our own, 1107 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 15: rejoice together, mourn together, labor and suffer together. For we 1108 00:59:57,480 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 15: must consider that we shall be as a city on 1109 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 15: a hill, the eyes of all people upon us. These 1110 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:06,440 Speaker 15: settlers had fled persecution in Europe. They were making a 1111 01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,880 Speaker 15: new covenant, not only with one another, but with God. 1112 01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:14,880 Speaker 15: Their goal a society where their faith guided their daily lives. 1113 01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 4: A look at the Eastern Seaboard in the seventeen hundreds 1114 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 4: reveals a pattern. Religious groups fled Europe and settled in 1115 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 4: colonies where they could worship freely. Congregationalists in Massachusetts, Quakers 1116 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:34,600 Speaker 4: and Pennsylvania, Catholics in Maryland, Anglicans, Lutherans and Presbyterians in 1117 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 4: the Carolinas all came seeking freedom and grace, hoping to 1118 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 4: find peace in this life and perfection in the next, with. 1119 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 2: The Word of God serving as the primary book of 1120 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,760 Speaker 2: instruction for most school children and churches providing the made 1121 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:51,720 Speaker 2: meeting place. In colonial America, religion and faith were the 1122 01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:55,640 Speaker 2: common bonds which tied a community together. These eternal truths 1123 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 2: also provided the framework for how society functioned. Faith wasn't 1124 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:02,120 Speaker 2: just a personal finging back then, it was public. Faith 1125 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 2: wasn't separated from life. It shaped their everyday lives. 1126 01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:08,400 Speaker 4: The religious fire that led to the colonization of the 1127 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 4: Eastern Seaboard would be fanned by the Great Awakening of 1128 01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:15,440 Speaker 4: the seventeen thirties, in a direct response to the Age 1129 01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:20,520 Speaker 4: of Reason sweeping through Western civilization. The Great Awakening transferred 1130 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:26,280 Speaker 4: the administration of faith from the few ordained clergy to individuals. 1131 01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,040 Speaker 1: Faith became deeply personal. 1132 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:34,240 Speaker 4: Ordinary people, not just clergy, began to see their relationship 1133 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:37,040 Speaker 4: with God as their own responsibility. 1134 01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:40,000 Speaker 15: It's in this period that the engine of the American 1135 01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 15: Revolution was born. The men and women who came of 1136 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:46,400 Speaker 15: age during and directly after the Great Awakening would be 1137 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:50,160 Speaker 15: those who challenged the greatest military force on the planet 1138 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 15: and forge a new nation with a new set of ideals. 1139 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 15: A study of those who attended the First and Second 1140 01:01:56,720 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 15: Continental Congresses will show a full range of religious practice 1141 01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:03,440 Speaker 15: among them. Church attendance was almost a given in the 1142 01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:06,680 Speaker 15: time period before the Revolution, a social Norman, which a 1143 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 15: high percentage of the colonists believed. Surely there were deists 1144 01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 15: among them, but even these often practiced the religion of 1145 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,600 Speaker 15: their forebears, even as they philosophized about the rational nature 1146 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:18,000 Speaker 15: of God. 1147 01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:20,960 Speaker 2: Look at the Declaration of Independence, the founding document of 1148 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 2: our nation. It's full of references to God. It's clear 1149 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 2: that our rights don't come from a king or a government. 1150 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 2: They come from a higher power. They are unalienable, natural, 1151 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:30,200 Speaker 2: God given, and not. 1152 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:30,920 Speaker 3: Up for debate. 1153 01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:34,360 Speaker 2: During the war, American leaders called on God constantly. They 1154 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 2: prayed for protection, for guidance, for victory. They gave thanks 1155 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:41,439 Speaker 2: after every battle, every breakthrough, in every moment of hope. 1156 01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:44,320 Speaker 15: In the Bill of Rights, religion has a pre eminent 1157 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 15: spot in the first Amendment, restricting Congress from making any 1158 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:52,439 Speaker 15: law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free 1159 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 15: exercise thereof. The Constitution breaks with the classic model that 1160 01:02:56,520 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 15: each nation has its own religion and prohibits the government 1161 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:02,360 Speaker 15: from forcing any one faith on its inhabitants. 1162 01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:04,800 Speaker 1: It goes on to deny the government. 1163 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:08,000 Speaker 15: From persecuting anyone for their own religious beliefs or practices. 1164 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:13,120 Speaker 15: This often misinterpreted language gives the broadest freedom to citizens 1165 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,720 Speaker 15: in the history of the world. It can be no 1166 01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 15: accident that this is the very first, right protected proof 1167 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 15: of just how important faith was in the founding of 1168 01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 15: the United States. 1169 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:27,160 Speaker 2: Nearly twenty years after the declaration, George Washington stated the 1170 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:30,400 Speaker 2: cause for faith plainly and his farewell address of all 1171 01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:34,120 Speaker 2: the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, Religion, 1172 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:38,200 Speaker 2: and morality are indispensable supports joining together our nation's future 1173 01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 2: success in the foundation of faith. 1174 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,920 Speaker 4: A student of history cannot escape from multitude of references 1175 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,160 Speaker 4: to biblical stories and lessons in the writings of the 1176 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 4: founders of our nation, nor can they miss the obvious 1177 01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 4: impact of the age Old Judaeo Christian influence on our 1178 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:59,240 Speaker 4: laws and on the structure of society. A nation without 1179 01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 4: that found of faith wouldn't just be different, it would 1180 01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:09,120 Speaker 4: be something completely holly, contrary to the founding tradition. 1181 01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 1: Let's go to Maryland and talk to Chris, who's been 1182 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:23,560 Speaker 1: waiting patient this morning. And Chris, I'm glad you called. 1183 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 1: Welcome in, sir. 1184 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:25,200 Speaker 13: Thank you. 1185 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:25,480 Speaker 9: Chris. 1186 01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:29,320 Speaker 17: How are you doing this morning? Hey, I'm doing. 1187 01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 1: Great, all things considered, my friend. How about you? 1188 01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 17: Yeah, I'm doing well, just on my way to work, 1189 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 17: but I wanted to call in. I want to discuss 1190 01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 17: this Day of America Act. I feel like I feel 1191 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 17: like people need to be talking about this more. You know, 1192 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,520 Speaker 17: the midterm elections are coming up in November, guys, that's 1193 01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 17: not that far away. And basically, right now, we have 1194 01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:50,480 Speaker 17: millions and millions and tens of millions of illegal immigrants 1195 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 17: in this country, but we don't even have a law 1196 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 17: that says you need a group of citizenship and an 1197 01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 17: idea to vote. And so I'm just wondering why Johnson 1198 01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:04,520 Speaker 17: in the Senate is not doing something with a filibuster, 1199 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:08,080 Speaker 17: whether it's making it a talking filibuster, apparently doing away 1200 01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:11,520 Speaker 17: with the filibuster to get this law passed. I really 1201 01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:15,440 Speaker 17: don't understand. I've read things where John Thune and said, well, 1202 01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:18,480 Speaker 17: if we do this or that, then it might give 1203 01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 17: us a hard time in the midterm elections and we 1204 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:23,440 Speaker 17: might not fare so well. It's like, you have to 1205 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:27,919 Speaker 17: start from just the basic common sense of you must 1206 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 17: be an American citizen to vote, because if you don't 1207 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:33,760 Speaker 17: have that, all else is out the window. And also, 1208 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:37,160 Speaker 17: we need to remember when Obamacare was passed, it was 1209 01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:42,080 Speaker 17: passed with reconciliation, I believe without one single Republican vote. 1210 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 17: Remember that. So I don't know, we need to figure 1211 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:46,760 Speaker 17: something out. 1212 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:52,240 Speaker 1: In the middle of Yeah, in the middle of the 1213 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:55,600 Speaker 1: snowstorm on Christmas Eve, they got Obamacare pass. Democrats had 1214 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:57,880 Speaker 1: a will and it cost them their majority for years, 1215 01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 1: but they were that committed. Jerry rigular way to get 1216 01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:04,040 Speaker 1: it done. To your point, and that's the thing, Chris. 1217 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:08,320 Speaker 1: People feel like Thune isn't interested in getting creative and 1218 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:10,800 Speaker 1: fighting even if they didn't get it done. And there 1219 01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,280 Speaker 1: were a couple of recalciltrant Republicans and there are, by 1220 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:16,480 Speaker 1: the way, he is correct in this. There are four 1221 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:20,880 Speaker 1: Republicans at least that we know of, maybe more. Actually 1222 01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:23,800 Speaker 1: there are maybe half a dozen, No, maybe more like 1223 01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:25,840 Speaker 1: a dozen, I'm sorry to say, who actually haven't committed. 1224 01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,120 Speaker 1: And I'm not say they're all against it, but there 1225 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:30,440 Speaker 1: are well over a dozen. We're going to talk with 1226 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:33,120 Speaker 1: Senator Eric Schmidt tomorrow about this of Republicans who have 1227 01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:36,600 Speaker 1: not committed to supporting this yet. So Thune keeps saying, listen, guys, 1228 01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:41,160 Speaker 1: I don't have the numbers. It won't pass. I can 1229 01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:43,920 Speaker 1: blow up the filibuster. I can do all kinds of 1230 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:45,600 Speaker 1: creative things, but it won't pass. 1231 01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:48,640 Speaker 17: And to that, you say what Chris Well, I would say, 1232 01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 17: I think with if he keeps the filibuster in place 1233 01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:54,520 Speaker 17: and blah blah blah, I think he needs sixty, if 1234 01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 17: I'm not mistaken, If he does the way with it, 1235 01:06:56,440 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 17: he needs fifty. I might be messed up on those numbers. 1236 01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 17: But like you said, there's got to be a creative way. 1237 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,680 Speaker 17: And I say that when Donald Trump's hurt was first 1238 01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:07,960 Speaker 17: in office in this first term, he also had the 1239 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 17: majority in the House of the Senate, if I'm not mistaken, 1240 01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 17: and he was telling the Republicans, he was telling the 1241 01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:15,800 Speaker 17: Congress a lot of things like, Hey, we need to 1242 01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:19,160 Speaker 17: do something about the social media companies and curb their power. 1243 01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:22,440 Speaker 17: We need to do something about this wall. We need to, 1244 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 17: you know, close the border. He was talking about a 1245 01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 17: lot of the things that he was talking about in 1246 01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:29,560 Speaker 17: his second term as well. And it didn't happen. The 1247 01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:32,640 Speaker 17: Republicans chickened out, if you recall, And then what happened 1248 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:35,920 Speaker 17: since since they didn't act when they could have when 1249 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 17: they had the majority, then came by and then his 1250 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:40,960 Speaker 17: next term and blew everything up with the border and 1251 01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:44,280 Speaker 17: let the blood in. And so we're back at a 1252 01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:47,520 Speaker 17: similar situation. We have the majority. It doesn't happen that 1253 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,120 Speaker 17: much when you have both Houses of Congress and the 1254 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 17: executive branch. You need to act and we must pass 1255 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 17: some laws here that require proof of citizenship. I mean, 1256 01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 17: it's not that hard, guys, because if we don't then 1257 01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:03,000 Speaker 17: sure enough, you know, we're not going to have that. 1258 01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:06,120 Speaker 17: And how are we supposed to then, you know, I mean, 1259 01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 17: how are the elections going to be? 1260 01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:09,240 Speaker 3: You know? 1261 01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 17: I mean it's an election integrity thing. It's a common 1262 01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:13,960 Speaker 17: sense measure that we should be able to. 1263 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:18,720 Speaker 1: Hey, listen, I I do not disagree Chris with a word. Yeah, 1264 01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:23,519 Speaker 1: I don't disagree with a word you're saying, Chris. I 1265 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,040 Speaker 1: agree with every word you've uttered, and I know most 1266 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:29,280 Speaker 1: Americans do too. It's an eighty twenty issue. Even with Democrats, 1267 01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:33,600 Speaker 1: it pulls in the seventies of support.

I get a little even emotional and 1327 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 1: moved by this audience's generosity. Here we are in year 1328 01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:35,000 Speaker 1: two and last year when we started the Food for 1329 01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:37,840 Speaker 1: the Poor campaign, I was curious, as a new show 1330 01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:40,920 Speaker 1: whether the audience would respond, and I was getting to 1331 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:44,080 Speaker 1: know the Food for the Poor people. This year, I 1332 01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 1: bumped into the leadership at Food Food for the Poor 1333 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:50,760 Speaker 1: at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention in Nashville, and they 1334 01:11:51,280 --> 01:11:54,880 Speaker 1: personally wanted me to come to you and say thank 1335 01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:57,960 Speaker 1: you so much for the difference you made last year. 1336 01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 1: They said, Stigall, you have no idea Dia the impact 1337 01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:06,880 Speaker 1: your audience made on the lives of so many families 1338 01:12:07,160 --> 01:12:11,880 Speaker 1: throughout Central America and throughout the Caribbean. They help some 1339 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:17,479 Speaker 1: seventeen different impoverished nations and communities therein not just with food, 1340 01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 1: but also giving them living water. And as you know, 1341 01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 1: in a lot of these places, we take it for granted. 1342 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:28,000 Speaker 1: You turn on a faucet and there's the water. You 1343 01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:29,880 Speaker 1: ever just said, boy, I'm just dying of thirst, And well, 1344 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:33,040 Speaker 1: these are people literally dying of thirst. And what I 1345 01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:36,679 Speaker 1: love love about Food for the Poor is the fact 1346 01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:39,320 Speaker 1: that they take a dollar and they stretch it and 1347 01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:41,360 Speaker 1: they make it work. Do you know with fifty dollars 1348 01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 1: they can get clean drinking water to some of these 1349 01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:49,160 Speaker 1: villages in Central America and in the Caribbean. For fifty dollars, 1350 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:53,559 Speaker 1: they can get two children fresh drinking water for an 1351 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:56,040 Speaker 1: entire year. You give one hundred dollars to Food for 1352 01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 1: the Poor, they can get a family of four fresh 1353 01:12:59,120 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 1: drinking water for a full year. Now, that is stretching 1354 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:02,920 Speaker 1: a dollar. 1355 01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:03,880 Speaker 18: I know. 1356 01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:06,439 Speaker 1: I've looked in the eyes and sat in meetings with 1357 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:09,160 Speaker 1: these Food for the Poor folks. They're getting ready to 1358 01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 1: invite me personally to one of the communities that they 1359 01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 1: operate in. I think in Guatemala, maybe in the next year, 1360 01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:18,160 Speaker 1: and I'm eager to go. The colleagues of mine that 1361 01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:21,679 Speaker 1: have gone, say stigaule will it will touch your soul. 1362 01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:24,760 Speaker 1: You will never experience anything like it. You will never 1363 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 1: see such poverty, but you will never see such belief. 1364 01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:36,400 Speaker 1: And so if you haven't given yet, and if you're 1365 01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:39,120 Speaker 1: inclined to give, I hope that you will.

Yep, isn't that cool? All right? This 1435 01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:16,400 Speaker 1: John Thune business ed. Let's talk about this for a minute. 1436 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:20,680 Speaker 1: I've written more in more detail about this at the 1437 01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:23,600 Speaker 1: hump Society today. Speaking of I mean, Americans did not 1438 01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:27,280 Speaker 1: hand Republicans the Senate, so John Thune could just preserve 1439 01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:32,439 Speaker 1: Senate club etiquette all right, this is not Robert's rules 1440 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:37,240 Speaker 1: of order. We're tired of patty cake. Conservatives and Republicans 1441 01:17:37,280 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 1: took control of the Senate and the Congress to secure 1442 01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:42,600 Speaker 1: the vote, and yet here we are we have a 1443 01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:47,640 Speaker 1: Senate majority leader who is slow walking. That's the only 1444 01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:50,280 Speaker 1: way I can describe its slow walking the Save America Act. Now, 1445 01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:53,040 Speaker 1: it is true, let's be fair. How do we deal 1446 01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:54,920 Speaker 1: with this? D It is true that he says he 1447 01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:57,679 Speaker 1: does not have the Republican support even if he blew 1448 01:17:57,840 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 1: up the Filipbuster, he does not have the Republican support 1449 01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:06,960 Speaker 1: to get a fifty one vote majority to pass it 1450 01:18:07,080 --> 01:18:09,040 Speaker 1: right now? So what do you do about that? 1451 01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:12,600 Speaker 6: Yes, that is true, and I have given him a 1452 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:15,080 Speaker 6: lot of grace with this, but he already tipped his 1453 01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:17,240 Speaker 6: hand early when he's talking about we have to do 1454 01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:19,519 Speaker 6: the farm bill, we have to do the infrastructure bill, 1455 01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:21,200 Speaker 6: we have to do the highway bill. It's just like, right, 1456 01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:24,479 Speaker 6: what do these senators then need? The Save Act is 1457 01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:27,360 Speaker 6: of utmost importance? Then what do these people that you 1458 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:30,760 Speaker 6: can't bring across the finish line? What is it that 1459 01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:32,880 Speaker 6: they need in the things that you listed that were 1460 01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:35,720 Speaker 6: so important that you need to get done? For them 1461 01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:37,960 Speaker 6: to get them across the finish line on the Save Act. 1462 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:43,400 Speaker 6: Election integrity is not a fringe issue. I mean, there's 1463 01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:47,920 Speaker 6: another story just today as a matter of fact, that 1464 01:18:48,560 --> 01:18:51,679 Speaker 6: a top DOJ prosecutor here, this is just the news, 1465 01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:54,200 Speaker 6: says tens of thousands of non citizens are on voter 1466 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:59,760 Speaker 6: rolls and illegally voted. Harmeiat Nyllan said Tuesday night, it's 1467 01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:03,920 Speaker 6: really frustrating were being prevented from doing our job. She 1468 01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 6: works in the Civil Rights Division at DJ criticizing state 1469 01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:10,160 Speaker 6: election offices and federal judges who are blocking her office 1470 01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 6: from her historic effort to obtain and review every state's 1471 01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 6: voter roles. Thousands, tens of thousands of non citizens are 1472 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:24,040 Speaker 6: on the voting rules, says Harmeat Dylan. So this is 1473 01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:28,280 Speaker 6: not some fringe issue. The bill is a simple one. 1474 01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:31,479 Speaker 1: The Save Act has overwhelming support, over eighty percent approval 1475 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:34,559 Speaker 1: amongst Trump voters and Republicans, over seventy percent approval even 1476 01:19:34,600 --> 01:19:38,559 Speaker 1: amongst Democrats. Proof of citizenship to register, strict voter ID, 1477 01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:44,520 Speaker 1: stronger voter role verification, tighter mail in ballot rules, safeguards 1478 01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 1: most legitimate countries would call common sense. Nevermind states and 1479 01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:55,760 Speaker 1: again overwhelmingly most Americans agree with this. So can John 1480 01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 1: Thune what you're saying, ed, can he bribe some of 1481 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 1: these Republicans who aren't for whatever reason, on board getting 1482 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:05,280 Speaker 1: this done? Or maybe some Democrats, I mean Fetterman's one. 1483 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:08,160 Speaker 1: Are you saying that there's surely got to be a 1484 01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:11,240 Speaker 1: way to grease the skids here and make these guys 1485 01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:13,640 Speaker 1: play ball, Throw a little pork at them in a 1486 01:20:13,680 --> 01:20:15,880 Speaker 1: piece of legislation, put some pork in the Save Act 1487 01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:17,960 Speaker 1: to get it done if need be. But look like 1488 01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:20,280 Speaker 1: you're fighting. That's exactly right. 1489 01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:23,760 Speaker 6: I mean, we already had proven in Trump's administration in 1490 01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:26,600 Speaker 6: the first year of trump forty seven year one that 1491 01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:31,080 Speaker 6: Lisa Murkowski can be bought. So like, let's go, what 1492 01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 6: do we have in these bills that everybody needs to 1493 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:34,880 Speaker 6: get the Save Act done? 1494 01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:38,920 Speaker 1: Yes, bribe them. I have plenty more to say about 1495 01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 1: this at the Herum Society today. I hope you'll join 1496 01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:44,200 Speaker 1: me at the Herm Society and give me your comments. Thuns, 1497 01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:47,400 Speaker 1: you know, and now he's attacking people who are laying 1498 01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:50,640 Speaker 1: on him, and conservatives all across the country who are 1499 01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:54,760 Speaker 1: calling up their Senate switchboard and pressuring them. He's getting mad. Well, 1500 01:20:55,040 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 1: he ain't seen nothing yet, So Senator Thun, I wouldn't 1501 01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:01,000 Speaker 1: go attacking the people who put you in power. As 1502 01:21:01,080 --> 01:21:04,280 Speaker 1: we were saying, there's a Harvard Harris poll out there 1503 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:07,599 Speaker 1: that found seventy one percent support for the Save Act overall, 1504 01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:13,439 Speaker 1: eighty one percent support voter ID, eighty percent support removing 1505 01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:18,040 Speaker 1: non citizens from voter rolls, seventy five percent support proof 1506 01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:23,720 Speaker 1: of citizenship. Even among Democrats, the numbers are stunning. You 1507 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:26,719 Speaker 1: never get this kind of universal support from the American 1508 01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:32,800 Speaker 1: people on anything anymore. Seventy percent of Democrats support voter ID, 1509 01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:38,840 Speaker 1: roughly half support the full bill. This is not some 1510 01:21:39,160 --> 01:21:45,840 Speaker 1: kind of partisan demand, folks. It's a national consensus. And 1511 01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:48,200 Speaker 1: I was really glad that President Trump drew the line 1512 01:21:48,240 --> 01:21:55,360 Speaker 1: this weekend. Move this bill to the front of the line, 1513 01:21:56,520 --> 01:22:02,160 Speaker 1: send this bill to his desk. Stop negotiating against yourselves. 1514 01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:06,960 Speaker 1: And Thune's response, I'm sorry to say, has been classic 1515 01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:13,120 Speaker 1: establishment mush. He says he supports the bill, but Republicans 1516 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:16,840 Speaker 1: aren't there yet, he says, on a talking filibuster, and 1517 01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:22,559 Speaker 1: he even dismissed grassroots pressure as paid influencer ecosystem stuff. 1518 01:22:24,400 --> 01:22:26,960 Speaker 1: Very frustrating and tells you everything you need to know. 1519 01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 1: This is not caution, it's institutional capture. Fune has inherited 1520 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 1: the machinery of Mitch McConnell and is now guarding it 1521 01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:44,400 Speaker 1: like a caretaker, not a conqueror. He's defending procedure, and 1522 01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:49,439 Speaker 1: he's hiding behind the filibuster at the exact moment. Voters, 1523 01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 1: and not just Republicans. Most voters want a leader willing 1524 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:58,000 Speaker 1: to burn floor time and force the fight. So let's 1525 01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:01,360 Speaker 1: stop pretending like this is some kind of noble tradition. 1526 01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:06,519 Speaker 1: A talking filibuster is a procedural choice. It's not a 1527 01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:12,120 Speaker 1: constitutional sacrament. Okay. Republicans would not need to change a 1528 01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:15,839 Speaker 1: single Senate rule to force this fight. They could simply 1529 01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,160 Speaker 1: keep the chamber open and make Democrats hold the floor 1530 01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:23,160 Speaker 1: if they want to block the bill. This tool exists, 1531 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:28,920 Speaker 1: and Thune simply refuses to use it. Instead, he seems 1532 01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:32,760 Speaker 1: to be doing what establishment Republicans always do, I'm sorry 1533 01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:36,800 Speaker 1: to say, when the stakes get real, they praise the 1534 01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:39,719 Speaker 1: goal and then they pretend like it's not as urgent 1535 01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:41,880 Speaker 1: to them as it is to the rest of us, 1536 01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:45,920 Speaker 1: And then they dare lecture us about the process like 1537 01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:50,960 Speaker 1: we care or it matters, And of course the legacy 1538 01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:53,719 Speaker 1: media is all too happy to help sell the delay, 1539 01:23:55,840 --> 01:24:00,280 Speaker 1: framing it as statesmanship while we're demanding a real fight. 1540 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:04,120 Speaker 1: You and I did not drain the swamp. We did 1541 01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:07,840 Speaker 1: not walk through the hell of many of our family 1542 01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:14,160 Speaker 1: and friends and online trolls of twenty twenty in twenty sixteen, 1543 01:24:15,320 --> 01:24:19,320 Speaker 1: only to refill the swamp with slightly friendlier reptiles. We 1544 01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:25,400 Speaker 1: voted for fighters, not caretakers. More in a minute. Our 1545 01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,880 Speaker 1: friends at town Hall have been doing remarkable work over 1546 01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:30,639 Speaker 1: the years. If you don't know town hall dot com, 1547 01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 1: you got to go there, and you've got a bookmarket. 1548 01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:37,160 Speaker 1: It's Larry O'Connor, my dear friend, does a great daily 1549 01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:39,720 Speaker 1: show there. But also it is just some of the 1550 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:43,720 Speaker 1: most top shelf reporting that you're going to read. And 1551 01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:47,840 Speaker 1: here this week they've busted a story wide open. If 1552 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:49,599 Speaker 1: you know this show at all, you know my passion 1553 01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:54,040 Speaker 1: for school choice and increasingly school choices growing across the country, 1554 01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:56,920 Speaker 1: and I suspect it as largely because of stories like this. 1555 01:24:58,200 --> 01:25:00,400 Speaker 1: Before we go to our guest, Kyle Olson, who written 1556 01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:02,160 Speaker 1: the story and broken the story at town Hall, I 1557 01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:05,400 Speaker 1: wanted to give you some of the video related related 1558 01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:08,679 Speaker 1: to the story. This is video taken at Health Leadership 1559 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:13,320 Speaker 1: High School on November thirteenth, twenty twenty five, and what 1560 01:25:13,439 --> 01:25:15,800 Speaker 1: it shows is a man sitting at the reception desk 1561 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:21,160 Speaker 1: of Owen's Administrative and Healthcare Supports Services, a school based 1562 01:25:21,240 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 1: privately owned health center in Albuquerque, and their Leadership School 1563 01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:29,760 Speaker 1: says it's their mission to quote equip students with the 1564 01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 1: skills they need to become leaders in healthcare. Well, take 1565 01:25:34,439 --> 01:25:37,040 Speaker 1: a listen to some of this and then we'll get 1566 01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:38,840 Speaker 1: to Kyle and talk about the reporting on it. 1567 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:43,560 Speaker 13: Here we go within the three schools, this is the 1568 01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:51,679 Speaker 13: most welcoming, okay, especially of individuals of an alternative lifestyle. 1569 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:52,320 Speaker 1: Got it. 1570 01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:55,280 Speaker 3: A. 1571 01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:59,200 Speaker 13: We've had a few transgenders students come through here. Again, 1572 01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:05,599 Speaker 13: we can't offer gender firming care. We can give some therapy, 1573 01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:11,120 Speaker 13: but due to the new federal mandates, we can't call 1574 01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:17,759 Speaker 13: it gender affirming therapy. Okay, we call it identity therapy. Basically, 1575 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:21,640 Speaker 13: it hasn't changed. It's just the way we have to 1576 01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:25,599 Speaker 13: name it in order for billing to take place. 1577 01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:28,720 Speaker 3: Right, So if you call it one thing, then you 1578 01:26:29,040 --> 01:26:30,840 Speaker 3: can be reimbursed or something like that. 1579 01:26:31,240 --> 01:26:36,479 Speaker 13: Right, All school based health connects or state run Well, 1580 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:38,840 Speaker 13: all the funding comes in from the state, got it. 1581 01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:41,639 Speaker 13: We are completely funded by the state. 1582 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:43,519 Speaker 9: That's it. 1583 01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:44,600 Speaker 3: Got it. 1584 01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:48,080 Speaker 1: The only people that we build is Medicaid. 1585 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:49,760 Speaker 3: It's Medicaid, yes, got it. 1586 01:26:50,160 --> 01:26:52,479 Speaker 13: But all of our services are free no matter what 1587 01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:57,240 Speaker 13: private insurance, doesn't matter. They still get the same amount 1588 01:26:57,280 --> 01:27:01,080 Speaker 13: of care that anyone else. I don't work for the school, 1589 01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:05,040 Speaker 13: got it. We're an outside entity that is just howsed 1590 01:27:05,120 --> 01:27:06,639 Speaker 13: within the schools. 1591 01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:13,960 Speaker 1: That's right. That is Health Leadership High School in Albuquerque, 1592 01:27:14,200 --> 01:27:18,000 Speaker 1: New Mexico. Covering this at townhall dot Com is special 1593 01:27:18,040 --> 01:27:21,800 Speaker 1: correspondent Kyle Olsen, and he joins us this morning. Kyle, 1594 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:22,720 Speaker 1: good to have you here, sir. 1595 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:25,800 Speaker 3: Thanks a lot for your time, Good morning, thanks for 1596 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:26,160 Speaker 3: having me. 1597 01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:30,560 Speaker 1: One wonders right away when you hear in exchange like 1598 01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:33,960 Speaker 1: this on the undercover video, This is probably going on 1599 01:27:34,120 --> 01:27:37,120 Speaker 1: in schools and government offices all over the place, isn't it. 1600 01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:39,560 Speaker 1: If we're to be honest, people who are trying to 1601 01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:42,800 Speaker 1: dance around the rules, we're just not gonna call it 1602 01:27:42,960 --> 01:27:45,200 Speaker 1: that anymore. So when we talk about even DEI being 1603 01:27:45,280 --> 01:27:48,600 Speaker 1: dead or gender affirming care, are they just changing the 1604 01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:49,479 Speaker 1: verbiage Kyle. 1605 01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:53,040 Speaker 18: Yes, and that's exactly what they're doing. And I was 1606 01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:55,920 Speaker 18: going to say, it's the same thing with THEI. You know, 1607 01:27:56,040 --> 01:27:58,519 Speaker 18: there has been other videos that show, oh, we're just 1608 01:27:58,640 --> 01:28:00,880 Speaker 18: changing the name. We have to change the name to 1609 01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:04,439 Speaker 18: stay under the federal radar, so we don't get we 1610 01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:07,200 Speaker 18: don't attract too much attention. But think about this. It 1611 01:28:07,360 --> 01:28:11,639 Speaker 18: is Health Leadership High School, and as you said, their 1612 01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:14,639 Speaker 18: mission is to equip students with the skills they need. 1613 01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:19,080 Speaker 3: To become leaders in healthcare. And this is what's happening 1614 01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:20,240 Speaker 3: in the school. 1615 01:28:20,880 --> 01:28:23,639 Speaker 18: And so the individual that was played in the video, 1616 01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 18: I mean, he sort of he gives it all away. 1617 01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:28,760 Speaker 18: We don't call it gender or we don't call it 1618 01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:31,920 Speaker 18: gender affirming therapy, we call it identity therapy. 1619 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:34,320 Speaker 3: And that way, they just rename it. 1620 01:28:35,040 --> 01:28:38,559 Speaker 18: So then the federal dollars, the medicaid dollars will continue 1621 01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:39,040 Speaker 18: to flow. 1622 01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:44,560 Speaker 1: This is at a federal level. My understanding is, and 1623 01:28:45,760 --> 01:28:50,559 Speaker 1: independent of government. You're talking about institutional medical institutions who 1624 01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:54,040 Speaker 1: have said they don't embrace this any longer, certainly not 1625 01:28:54,120 --> 01:28:54,599 Speaker 1: for miners. 1626 01:28:54,640 --> 01:28:54,760 Speaker 3: Now. 1627 01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 1: I don't know that they stipulate whether we're talking about 1628 01:28:56,520 --> 01:29:00,920 Speaker 1: adults miners necessarily in this video, but certainly about kids. 1629 01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:05,519 Speaker 1: Even the medical establishment has largely embraced the idea that 1630 01:29:05,640 --> 01:29:07,639 Speaker 1: we're not we're not going to talk about this stuff 1631 01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:11,360 Speaker 1: with miners anymore. But yet you hear these bureaucrats they 1632 01:29:11,439 --> 01:29:14,040 Speaker 1: talk around it like, eh, screw that. Yeah, we know 1633 01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:16,720 Speaker 1: what the Fed say, we know what even medical establishment says, 1634 01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:20,040 Speaker 1: but we're doing it anyway. It's become it's religion with 1635 01:29:20,120 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 1: these people, it seems. 1636 01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:24,400 Speaker 3: Kyle, that's I think that's exactly what it is. 1637 01:29:24,600 --> 01:29:27,360 Speaker 18: And this, this whole scenario that plays out in this 1638 01:29:27,520 --> 01:29:30,519 Speaker 18: video that you can find at town Hall is premised 1639 01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:34,040 Speaker 18: on the idea that a fourteen year old girl wants 1640 01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:35,599 Speaker 18: to transition to become a boy. 1641 01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:38,600 Speaker 3: And so that's the context of this discussion. 1642 01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:42,760 Speaker 18: And so everything that this individual is giving to the 1643 01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:47,479 Speaker 18: person who is the undercover journalist is premised on the 1644 01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:49,559 Speaker 18: idea that this is a fourteen year. 1645 01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:51,840 Speaker 3: Old student that we're talking about. 1646 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 18: And so and what they what they're what we're finding 1647 01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:58,160 Speaker 18: and there's we have more stories coming out today and 1648 01:29:58,240 --> 01:30:02,600 Speaker 18: tomorrow at town Hall of other example schools. But what 1649 01:30:02,720 --> 01:30:07,559 Speaker 18: we're finding is that if this if the individual clinic 1650 01:30:07,800 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 18: at that school cannot provide those services. They will refer 1651 01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:14,519 Speaker 18: a student out to be able to get those, and 1652 01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:18,000 Speaker 18: we're talking potentially and there they even say it's difficult 1653 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:22,280 Speaker 18: to find a clinic that will do surgery in New Mexico, 1654 01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:25,240 Speaker 18: but we can refer you to the University of Colorado. 1655 01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:29,080 Speaker 18: There's there's places in New York. Of course, there's places 1656 01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:32,080 Speaker 18: in San Francisco, which is you know, not a surprise. 1657 01:30:33,200 --> 01:30:36,080 Speaker 3: But they if this is what they want, they will 1658 01:30:36,120 --> 01:30:37,000 Speaker 3: find a way to do it. 1659 01:30:39,040 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 1: This is kind of like voter id most people, I think, 1660 01:30:43,360 --> 01:30:46,760 Speaker 1: regardless of your politics. I think most people, and again 1661 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:49,720 Speaker 1: even the medical establishment, the AMA and others who are 1662 01:30:49,760 --> 01:30:53,920 Speaker 1: typically left leaning these days politically, most people, even Europe 1663 01:30:54,080 --> 01:30:57,280 Speaker 1: Kyle have said when it comes to minors, leave them 1664 01:30:57,320 --> 01:30:59,280 Speaker 1: out of it. We don't do this stuff. And yet 1665 01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:01,840 Speaker 1: they still are and they're still using taxpayer money to 1666 01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:05,559 Speaker 1: do it. That's the real scandal here, correct, Yeah, we're 1667 01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:07,839 Speaker 1: not talking about adults. We're talking about minors. 1668 01:31:08,520 --> 01:31:12,839 Speaker 18: And to show I think the intent of the leaders 1669 01:31:12,880 --> 01:31:16,759 Speaker 18: in New Mexico, they change the law so a fourteen 1670 01:31:16,840 --> 01:31:19,400 Speaker 18: year old is treated as an adult. So if a 1671 01:31:19,520 --> 01:31:22,599 Speaker 18: fourteen year old wants to do this, if they want 1672 01:31:22,640 --> 01:31:25,719 Speaker 18: to have an abortion, whatever it is, the school clinic 1673 01:31:25,840 --> 01:31:28,959 Speaker 18: will enable them to do that. And because they're fourteen 1674 01:31:29,080 --> 01:31:31,880 Speaker 18: and they're being treated as an adult, it's kept from 1675 01:31:31,920 --> 01:31:35,320 Speaker 18: the parents, and so there's patient privacy. The parents don't 1676 01:31:35,360 --> 01:31:38,600 Speaker 18: know what's going on. There's no parental consent law, and 1677 01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:40,760 Speaker 18: so the parents are kept in the dark. 1678 01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:41,839 Speaker 3: And to me, the real. 1679 01:31:41,720 --> 01:31:44,400 Speaker 18: Irony of all of this is, you have to be 1680 01:31:44,520 --> 01:31:47,800 Speaker 18: twenty one years old in New Mexico in order to 1681 01:31:47,840 --> 01:31:50,760 Speaker 18: buy a pack of cigarettes, but if you want to 1682 01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:54,920 Speaker 18: permanently alter your body, you have to be fourteen. And 1683 01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:58,320 Speaker 18: it's just I mean, this is I think this crazy 1684 01:31:58,520 --> 01:32:01,280 Speaker 18: gender theory that we're seeing play out in real time 1685 01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:02,679 Speaker 18: in places like New Mexico. 1686 01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:08,000 Speaker 1: This reporting that you've done Kyle at townhall dot com. 1687 01:32:08,200 --> 01:32:11,799 Speaker 1: Please do go check it out. Drag Queens Staff's school 1688 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:16,360 Speaker 1: clinic explains rebranding of gender affirming care to avoid pederal scrutiny. 1689 01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:20,360 Speaker 1: That's one of a few stories coming out. Any official response, briefly, Kyle, 1690 01:32:20,439 --> 01:32:22,080 Speaker 1: from the people in this video. 1691 01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:26,400 Speaker 18: I've not seen any official response yet, but I can 1692 01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:29,040 Speaker 18: tell you that there are more videos coming. 1693 01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:30,960 Speaker 3: I've seen some of them. 1694 01:32:31,080 --> 01:32:35,880 Speaker 18: I've written three stories for town Hall, and there will 1695 01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:40,120 Speaker 18: be about seven or eight videos. In those stories, I 1696 01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:42,759 Speaker 18: can tell you that there's more. And what it shows 1697 01:32:42,880 --> 01:32:46,600 Speaker 18: I think because of the volume of the videos, I 1698 01:32:46,680 --> 01:32:48,960 Speaker 18: think it shows these are not one offs. These are 1699 01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:51,599 Speaker 18: not bad actors or just you know, oh this person, 1700 01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:54,559 Speaker 18: you know doesn't know the policy. There's a real intent 1701 01:32:54,760 --> 01:32:58,680 Speaker 18: in New Mexico to alter kids' bodies to enable this 1702 01:32:58,880 --> 01:33:02,080 Speaker 18: sort of behavior, both on the part of kids but 1703 01:33:02,200 --> 01:33:08,599 Speaker 18: also adults. In the Federal Health and Human Services has 1704 01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:11,559 Speaker 18: issued rules. There has been a bill that was passed 1705 01:33:11,560 --> 01:33:14,000 Speaker 18: by the House that's currently sitting in the Senate to 1706 01:33:14,120 --> 01:33:16,439 Speaker 18: do away with a lot of this, but today it's 1707 01:33:17,040 --> 01:33:18,280 Speaker 18: still happening in New Mexico. 1708 01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:23,559 Speaker 1: Kyle Olson, outstanding work at Kyle Olsen, the number four 1709 01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:26,320 Speaker 1: at Kyle Olson, the number four on X and over 1710 01:33:26,360 --> 01:33:28,680 Speaker 1: there at town Hall.

As a matter of fact, I know gloom 1719 01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:56,640 Speaker 1: and doom is what's selling, but Caroline Levitt wants to 1720 01:33:56,720 --> 01:33:58,559 Speaker 1: remind you our men and women are doing some really 1721 01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:01,000 Speaker 1: remarkable stuff. Here. Take a listen. 1722 01:34:01,960 --> 01:34:05,120 Speaker 19: Ten days in this campaign has been a resounding success 1723 01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:08,840 Speaker 19: thus far, and America's warriors are winning this important fight 1724 01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:12,720 Speaker 19: at an even faster pace than we anticipated. More than 1725 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:16,639 Speaker 19: five thousand enemy targets have been struck so far. Iran's 1726 01:34:16,680 --> 01:34:20,200 Speaker 19: ballistic missile attacks are down more than ninety percent, and 1727 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:23,759 Speaker 19: their drone attacks are down by approximately eighty five percent 1728 01:34:24,240 --> 01:34:27,880 Speaker 19: since the start of Operation Epic Fury. The United States 1729 01:34:28,000 --> 01:34:31,280 Speaker 19: is also annihilating the Iranian regimes navy, and we have 1730 01:34:31,400 --> 01:34:35,799 Speaker 19: destroyed more than fifty Iranian naval vessels, including a major 1731 01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:39,720 Speaker 19: drone carrier ship. None of the regime's vessels are operating 1732 01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:43,120 Speaker 19: in major regional waterways, and the Iranian Navy has been 1733 01:34:43,160 --> 01:34:45,600 Speaker 19: assessed as combat ineffective. 1734 01:34:48,600 --> 01:34:54,280 Speaker 1: So that's overseas here domestically, talking about the economy, in 1735 01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:59,040 Speaker 1: number sixteen, if you could gee tax season, we know 1736 01:34:59,240 --> 01:34:59,800 Speaker 1: that more. 1737 01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:04,040 Speaker 19: Than twenty seven point five million individuals who have filed 1738 01:35:04,040 --> 01:35:06,920 Speaker 19: their tax returns thus far have claimed at least one 1739 01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:09,960 Speaker 19: of President Trump's new tax cuts. Over three and a 1740 01:35:10,040 --> 01:35:13,400 Speaker 19: half million returns have claimed no tax on tips, Over 1741 01:35:13,560 --> 01:35:17,320 Speaker 19: fifteen point five million returns have claimed no tax on overtime, 1742 01:35:17,720 --> 01:35:20,759 Speaker 19: Over nine point two million returns have claimed the enhanced 1743 01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:24,719 Speaker 19: deduction for seniors, and over sixty six hundred and ninety 1744 01:35:24,800 --> 01:35:28,120 Speaker 19: thousand returns have claimed no tax on car loan interest. 1745 01:35:28,600 --> 01:35:32,719 Speaker 19: And another amazing statistic, nearly three point five million Trump 1746 01:35:32,800 --> 01:35:37,040 Speaker 19: accounts have been opened for children in our country thus far. 1747 01:35:38,880 --> 01:35:40,880 Speaker 1: Now, again, you wouldn't know any of this if you 1748 01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:44,519 Speaker 1: weren't listening to shows like this one, because those are 1749 01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:47,120 Speaker 1: not things that media want to talk about, including I'm 1750 01:35:47,160 --> 01:35:49,120 Speaker 1: sorry to say a lot of conservative outlets that it's 1751 01:35:49,520 --> 01:35:52,960 Speaker 1: just sexier to pile on right now than to actually 1752 01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:55,960 Speaker 1: embrace what is really tough work and turning around what 1753 01:35:56,120 --> 01:35:58,920 Speaker 1: has been an absolute mess in just over a year. 1754 01:36:00,240 --> 01:36:03,560 Speaker 1: It's remarkable stuff. I am not gloom and doom and 1755 01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:06,360 Speaker 1: pessimism about this stuff, folks. I'm thrilled this president is 1756 01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:10,080 Speaker 1: rolling the way he is, and I'm thrilled, as I've 1757 01:36:10,080 --> 01:36:12,320 Speaker 1: said on social media and other places, i voted for 1758 01:36:12,439 --> 01:36:15,280 Speaker 1: him three times and I don't question that vote for 1759 01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:18,600 Speaker 1: a second. As for John Thune and the Senate and 1760 01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:20,800 Speaker 1: the Save Act, she was asked about this and where 1761 01:36:20,800 --> 01:36:23,280 Speaker 1: the President stands on that in number fifteen. 1762 01:36:28,439 --> 01:36:32,120 Speaker 19: I think President Trump the urgency behind his need to 1763 01:36:32,280 --> 01:36:34,720 Speaker 19: pass the Save America Acted, his desire to get this 1764 01:36:35,160 --> 01:36:38,760 Speaker 19: country saving legislation passed has been made quite clear. He 1765 01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:41,160 Speaker 19: wants all options on the table, and he wants the 1766 01:36:41,240 --> 01:36:44,360 Speaker 19: Senate to move as quickly as possible through whatever means necessary. 1767 01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:48,160 Speaker 1: So she says it with a smile, but President Trump 1768 01:36:48,280 --> 01:36:51,280 Speaker 1: is very very serious about it. All right, As we 1769 01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:53,559 Speaker 1: wrap up today, I just want to say thank you again. 1770 01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm checking the totals at Chris stigaul dot com on 1771 01:36:55,880 --> 01:36:58,520 Speaker 1: our Food for the Poor campaign.

I mean, if you've ever heard 1773 01:37:03,720 --> 01:37:06,000 Speaker 1: your kids or you yourself have even said I'm just 1774 01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:08,760 Speaker 1: dying of thirst today, well that's just rhetorical. You know, 1775 01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:12,800 Speaker 1: obviously we don't really mean that, but that just means 1776 01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:14,360 Speaker 1: going to the sink and getting a clean glass of 1777 01:37:14,439 --> 01:37:16,560 Speaker 1: water if we need it. But throughout poor countries in 1778 01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:20,160 Speaker 1: our own hemisphere, kids are dying due to a lack 1779 01:37:20,200 --> 01:37:23,920 Speaker 1: of clean living water.

Do you know that 1787 01:37:48,200 --> 01:37:50,680 Speaker 1: if you give fifty dollars to this organization that it 1788 01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:54,479 Speaker 1: provides two kids with safe, living drinking water for an 1789 01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:58,200 Speaker 1: entire year. One hundred dollars gift gives that same blessing 1790 01:37:58,280 --> 01:38:00,680 Speaker 1: to a family of four for an entire year. And 1791 01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:04,160 Speaker 1: most importantly, Food for the Poor is a gospel centered, 1792 01:38:04,280 --> 01:38:08,400 Speaker 1: transformative organization.
