00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 3: The voice of free speech, the truth delivered common sense

9
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 3: for the American people. Welcome to the Scott Jenning Show.

10
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 1: The Department of Homeland Security remains shut down today. Democrats

11
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: are determined it seems to continue the pain at America's airports.

12
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: A Democratic congresswoman faces a rare Ethics Committee trial for

13
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: stealing millions of taxpayer dollars.

14
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 2: We have the details on that.

15
00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: Senator John Barrasso joins the show today as the Senator

16
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: Roger Marshall and he's going to talk about Operation Arctic Frost.

17
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: There was a hearing on Capitol Hill yesterday and two Democrats,

18
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocassio Cortes, are attempting to shut

19
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: down AI data centers. Will have the details on their effort,

20
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: which is being announced this afternoon. It is Wednesday, March

21
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth. This is common sense for the American people.

22
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: I'm Scott Jennings, broadcasting for Salem, and we are live

23
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: in your nation's capital today and the city is full

24
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: of people who cannot get enough of the cherry blossoms,

25
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: which are in fact blooming beautifully as we speak. I

26
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: still see some puffy white out there, but a lot

27
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: of pink on the trees during cherry blossom Week here

28
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. If you're out and about, please enjoy,

29
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: but please be mindful of the traffic laws and don't

30
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: get yourself run over out there in the streets.

31
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 2: A lot of folks and won this week.

32
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: Topping the news today, day forty of the DHS shut down,

33
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: and the deal we thought was emerging to get it

34
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: funded seems on shaky ground today. We reported to you

35
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: yesterday that Senate Republicans and President Trump had agreed to

36
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: a deal where a two part plan to fund DHS

37
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: and therefore TSA was taking shape. You do the funding

38
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: for DHS through normal order, and then you go put

39
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 1: the ICE piece through a second reconciliation bill, so you

40
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: would separate ICE out from DHS funding at large. It

41
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 1: would have funded about two hundred and fifty four thousand

42
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 1: of the two hundred and sixty thousand employees of the agency.

43
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: Sounded pretty reasonable.

44
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: This plan would have required seven Democrats to join fifty

45
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: three Republicans to get the first part moving and Heretofore,

46
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: Democrats have said they want to fund everything at DHS

47
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: except for ICE. So Republicans called their bluff and said, fine,

48
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: let's do it. And now Chuck Schumer and Akeem Jeffries

49
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: are moving the goalposts. They say Democrats will not support

50
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: that plan. So we are waiting to see what happens

51
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: today as Americans are also waiting, and they continue to

52
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: go to airports and find three, four and five hour

53
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: lines sometimes more. Did you know, by the way, that

54
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: this fiscal year, the TSA has been shut down for

55
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: fifty percent of the time, eighty five days in total.

56
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: You have to remember Democrats did a shutdown maneuver back

57
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: in the fall. And if this shut down continues until Friday,

58
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: well it means TSA agents will have missed a combined

59
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: one billion dollars in paychecks. It's no wonder that nearly

60
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: five hundred agents have left the agency altogether. Democrats are

61
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: terrorizing them. Half the time, taking away their paychecks and

62
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: leaving them and their families in constant limbo. The average

63
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: TA agent makes around fifty thousand dollars per year. By

64
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: the way, these are working class Americans who signed up

65
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: to serve their government, only to be served up themselves

66
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: as human sacrifices on the liberal political al term. Listen

67
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 1: to this TSA worker union representative. She's in Florida and

68
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: she's had enough. She told CNN about it today here

69
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: in cut number eleven.

70
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 4: This is unacceptable. Those are people who have been put

71
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 4: on a position by constituents and they need to represent us,

72
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 4: and that also means making sure we are able to

73
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 4: put food on the table while we've been working. It

74
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 4: is unacceptable at this point that you know, we are

75
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 4: showing up to work with no.

76
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:53,239
Speaker 2: Pay mad at all.

77
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: Now, the acting TSA administrator, when McNeil testified before Congress

78
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: this morning on the devastating impact that the Democratic shutdown

79
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: chaos has inflicted on the rank and file workforce, let's

80
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: hear that in cut number thirteen, we.

81
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 5: Have already lost over four hundred and eighty tsos this shutdown,

82
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 5: and our call out rates have accelerated as our workforce

83
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 5: was still reeling from the last shutdown. Prior to this shutdown,

84
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 5: our TSO call out rate was four percent. Now, multiple

85
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 5: major airports are experiencing days where forty to fifty percent

86
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 5: of their staff are calling out because they simply cannot

87
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 5: afford to report to work. This has led to the

88
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 5: highest weight times in TSA history, with some waight times

89
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 5: greater than four and a half hours. We are being

90
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 5: forced to consolidate lanes and may have to close smaller

91
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 5: airports if we do not have enough officers.

92
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 2: Workers are quitting.

93
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: Wait times are growing, and smaller airports are now at

94
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: risk of closing. The deliberate strategy to inflict pain on

95
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: the American people and then blame Trump for it is

96
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 1: in full swing. Republicans, understandably, are beside themselves on Capitol

97
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: Hill also this morning, and exasperated House Speaker Mike Johnson

98
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 1: held a press conference to address the situation, and he

99
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: made the point and it is undeniable that Democrats are

100
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 1: doing all of this at the behest of and on

101
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: behalf of illegal aliens like Jose Medina who killed eighteen

102
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: year old Sheridan Gorman in Chicago this weekend.

103
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 2: Here's the speaker in cut number.

104
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 6: Ten, this is not a game. But Democrats have shut

105
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 6: down the exact law enforcement agencies that are responsible for

106
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 6: apprehending and to boarding criminal illegal aliens, just like this

107
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 6: criminal here. It took Sheridan's life. Congressional Democrats have held

108
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 6: our airports, TSA, FEMA, the Coastguard, so many critical functions

109
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 6: of our government. We're talking about anti bioterrorism matters and issues.

110
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 6: You're talking about cybersecurity, all these things. They are holding

111
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 6: the government hostage. Why what is their demand at at

112
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 6: the root of all this. They want to reopen the

113
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 6: border and they want to protect criminal illegal aliens, just

114
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 6: like this murderer here. That is the modern Democrat party.

115
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: And one of Speaker Johnson's top lieutenants, Congresswoman Lisa McClain,

116
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: had this to say in cut number fourteen.

117
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 7: Dickens me, I'm here to protect Americans and I'm here

118
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 7: to protect law abiding citizens. And that's what we're going

119
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 7: to vote again. We're going to stop playing politics. We're

120
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 7: going to put the American people first again. And I

121
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 7: will close by saying this, thank you President Trump for

122
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 7: doing what the Democrats refuse to do, and thank you

123
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 7: for always putting Americans first.

124
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: McLain referencing there President Trump sending ICE agents to the

125
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: airports to help out. By all accounts, these ICE agents

126
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: have been helpful wait times, as some have been alleviated

127
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: by their presence, including in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. But has that

128
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: stopped Democrats from saying deranged things.

129
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 2: No, of course not.

130
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: In fact, the deranged local prosecutor in Philly, a man

131
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: named Larry Krasner, threatened to throw in jail ICE agents

132
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: for the crime of let me check my notes here

133
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: helping you get to your flight. Listen to this lunatic

134
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: and cut number three.

135
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 8: You commit crimes within the jurisdiction that is the city

136
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 8: and County of Philadelphia.

137
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 2: I prosecute you.

138
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 8: That is how it works. No, I don't take a

139
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 8: phone call from the President saying let them go. No,

140
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 8: the President cannot pardon you. I'll say it again, the

141
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 8: President cannot pardon you. And yes, I will put you

142
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 8: in handcuffs, and I will put you in a courtroom,

143
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 8: and if necessary, I will put you in a jail cell.

144
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: So to recap the news here, Republicans are trying to

145
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: reopen the Department of Homeland Set Security, which has been

146
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: closed for the last forty days, Democrats are refusing to

147
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: do that, which means we aren't paying the TSA agents

148
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: who get you through the line at the airport. And

149
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: Democrats are doing this because, well, they care more about

150
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 1: illegal aliens who break into our country and kill us

151
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: than they do about American citizens being able to travel freely,

152
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: or American citizens who wind up victims of these illegal

153
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: aliens who come to our country and sometimes commit very

154
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: violent crimes. As for the legislative strategy, it appears that

155
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: Republicans are committed to voting on their plan by tomorrow

156
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: and giving the Democrats another chance to go on the

157
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: record and show the American people where they really stand.

158
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: I suspect that we'll see once again that where the

159
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: Democrats stand is decidedly not with you. It's Scott Jennings

160
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: here on Salem. You're listening to common sense for the

161
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: American people.

162
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 2: A word from our friends at Relief Factor.

163
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 9: Now.

164
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: Since discovering Relief Factor last summer, you've heard me talk

165
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: about it. You've also heard me share stories from people

166
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: across the country who have found relief to their daily

167
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: aches and pains through Relief Factor. A lot of them

168
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: got started by the way by doing this, go.

169
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 2: And use the three week quick Start plan.

170
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: You go to relief Factor dot com or you call

171
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: one eight hundred four Relief and you simply say, I

172
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 1: want to get rid of aches and pains. I want

173
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 1: to try the three week quick Start. It just costs

Speaker 1: nineteen dollars and ninety five cents. You really have nothing

175
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: to lose, but it might set you on a path

176
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: to really change your life, to get rid of the

177
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: aches and pains. And oh, by the way, relief Factor

178
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: recently has improved their formula. They've added a premium black

179
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: pepper extract. It helps your body absorb all the key

180
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: ingredients even better than before. So my advice, take it

181
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: for me, Take it from the thousands of people we

182
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 1: hear from.

183
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: Try it out.

184
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: Three week quick Start, go to relief Factor dot com

185

Speaker 1: or call one eight hundred four Relief.

186
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: I don't think that you will regret it.

187
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm back a story about a Florida congresswoman, a Democrat,

188
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: who is alleged to have stolen five million dollars. Crazy story,

189
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: and we have it next here on the Scott Jenning Show.

190
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: Gold and Silver recently soared to record highs and then

191
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: pulled back, so our precious metal still a goodbye. Many

192
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: Wall Street experts predict higher prices ahead. Why well, because

193
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: we still have trillions a national debt, a declining dollar,

194
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: and inflation that keeps shrinking our savings.

195
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 2: Even with corrections along the way, gold remains a historical

196
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 2: hedge for wealth protection.

197
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: That's why Morgan Stanley's chief investment officer ditched the sixty

Speaker 10: Conversation said to stories you simply won't hear from the

209
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 10: mainstream media. It's the Scott Jenny Show.

210
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 1: Welcome back to common sense for the American people. Scott

211
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: Jennings is here. By the way, have you heard the

212
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: one about the sitting Florida congresswoman who stole millions of

213
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: dollars in FEMA disaster relief funds and then use the

214
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: money on her campaign for Congress. No, you haven't heard

215
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: this story. Well, I wonder why that might be, because

216
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why. The congresswoman in question is a Democrat,

217
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: and that tells you everything you need to know about

218
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: the state of the American media. Now, this is not

219
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,719
Speaker 1: some minor ethics flat. We're going to tell you all

220
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: about it. This is not a paperwork, eir. This is

221
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: not a technicality here, folks. This is one of the

222
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: most serious corruption cases involving a sitting member of Congress

223
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: to come along in years. The congresswoman in question is

224
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: named Sheila Sherphilis McCormick. She is a Democrat from Florida.

225
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: She represents parts of Broward and Palm Beach Counties. And

226
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: here is what happened. A grand jury indicted her for

227
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: allegedly stealing five million dollars in FEMA disaster relief funds,

228
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: money that was supposed to go to help Americans during COVID.

229
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: According to prosecutors, that money didn't just disappear, It was laundered,

230
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: funneled through a family business, and then prosecutors say she

231
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: used the money to fund her own campaign for Congress.

232
00:13:55,280 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 2: Now, why haven't you heard about this again? Ah? Yes, forgot.

233
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: This is a Democrat we're talking about who took disaster

234
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 1: relief money and turned it into campaign cash. Now the

235
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: charges don't stop there. We're talking about conspiracy here, money laundering,

236
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: illegal campaign contributions, even allegations of falsifying tax documents. If

237
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: convicted in federal court, she could face decades in prison.

238
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: So her federal trial is scheduled for next month. But

239
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 1: these issues are going to be dealt with today on

240
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill in a rare public ethics trial over in

241
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: the US House. And when I say rare, I mean rare.

242
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: The House Ethics Committee almost never does this, and they

243
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 1: had to create a special adjudicatory panel because investigators found

244
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: what they called quote substantial evidence of her misconduct. The

245
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: committee reviewed tens of thousands of documents, interviewed dozens of witnesses,

246
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: and said the evidence lines up not just with the

247
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 1: indictment which I just told told you about, but potentially

248
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: even broader misconduct. It goes beyond what federal prosecutors have

249
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: even alleged in court. So let me ask the obvious question,

250
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: where is the Democratic Party?

251
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 2: Where is the outrage? Where is the moral clarity?

252
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: Because when Republicans have even a whiff of scandal, what

253
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: do we hear, resign, step down, zero tolerance. My goodness, gracious, Democrats.

254
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: Just the other day we're going crazy about Pete Hegsas

255
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: supposedly buying millions of dollars in lobster. But they have

256
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: nothing for this. Do you remember the name George Santos.

257
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: He was the Republican congressman from New York campaign fraud

258
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: indictment and later a conviction, and it was Republicans who

259
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: cleaned up their own house and expelled him from the body.

260
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: But here with Democrat McCormick, what do we hear from

261
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: Democratic leaders, Well, we hear nothing, total silence. What do

262
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: we hear from cable news? Nothing? A blackout on this story,

263
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: it seems. And that is the real story today, not

264
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: just the alleged corruption, but the complete lack of accountability

265
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: from the political system that surrounds it. Because this isn't

266
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: just about a congresswoman who is corrupt.

267
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 2: It is about a culture where.

268
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: If you're on the right team and if you vote

269
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: the right way, well, things tend to just get ignored

270
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: and overlooked, at least as a matter of public accountability.

271
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: If these allegations are true, and it certainly seems like

272
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: the Ethics Committee believes they are, this is one of

273
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: the most brazen abuses of taxpayer money in recent memory,

274
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: stealing from a.

275
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 2: Disaster relief program during.

276
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: A national emergency and using it to climb the ladder

277
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: of political power. After this ethics trial, will there be

278
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 1: any public exploration of exactly what happened here? We get

279
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: breathless coverage of everything Trump or any Republican does, reel

280
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 1: or imagined, but a Democrat stealing five million dollars, well,

281
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 1: we've gotten nothing so far. But maybe hopefully that will

282
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: change after the Ethics Committee does its job today and

283
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens to Representative McCormick of Florida. But

284
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: as they say, it don't look good. We're going to

285
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: take a break, and when we come back, we're going

286
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: to talk about the news of the day. A little

287
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: bit more on the war in Iran with Josh Kraushawer

288
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: he's one of the smartest political journalists in Washington, d C.

289
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: He's also the editor of the Jewish Insider, but he's

290
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: got always chock full of information. We'll talk to Josh

291
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: Kraushawer and just a little bit also later on the

292
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,679
Speaker 1: show today, Senator Barasso is coming by Senator Marshall. A

293
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: lot of stuff going on in DC and we've got

294
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: all the political players to bring you the latest news

295

Speaker 1: We sincerely appreciate you out there all across this country.

Speaker 1: tie today and matching cherry blossom pocket handkerchief. Want to

305
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: say thanks to my friend Henry at Andrew's Ties and

306
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: Union station in Washington last night where I popped in

307
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: and I said, you know what I'm going to will

308
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: spring into existence. I'm going to will it into existence

309
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: with some sartorial choices. So he comes up with this tie.

Speaker 1: I wore a salmon jacket on CNN last night. I'm

311
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 1: bringing it about and hopefully it will not go back.

00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 2: We'll get Josh opinion in a moment.

316
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 1: First, I do have a message that every parent and

317
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 1: grandparent for that matter, needs to hear. It comes from

318
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: our friends and partners at Child Help and they want

319
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 1: you to know, and this is vital information. Your kids

320
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: are being targeted online. If they're on gaming platforms or

321
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: social media or messaging apps, chances are they are encountering

322
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: people who are not who they say they are. You

323
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: have all these kids and all these apps they're on.

324
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: There a lot of screen time for the kids, and

325
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: sometimes predators slip through the cracks, and it's families that

326
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: pay the price. Childhoo Help runs this national child abuse hotline.

327
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: They hear from kids every single day who were contacted

328
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: through these games and apps. These kids were groomed, manipulated

329
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: and threatened by adults who are pretending to be someone else.

330
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: One boy in fact called child Help, and he said

331
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: this adult got in touch with him and was demanding

332
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 1: photos of the boy, and he was threatening to lie

333
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: to his parents if he didn't comply.

334
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 2: Now put yourself in the you're a young kid. You're

335
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 2: playing a game.

336
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: Somebody is talking to you and they start saying, send

337
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: me photos or I'm gonna call your parents. I mean,

338
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: this is frightening stuff, but it happens every single day.

339
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: But calling up child Help and getting help from them

340
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 1: probably save this boy's life. That's why child help matters.

341
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: I'm a donor, I know the leadership. I've been to

342
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: the headquarters. I personally vouch for child Help and I'm

343
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: asking you today for twenty seven dollars. A donation of

344
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: twenty seven dollars. That's what it takes to do one

345
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 1: of these phone calls to the child Help hotline. It's

346
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: it twenty seven bucks. It's not much to ask, but

347
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 1: you could save a life by partnering with child Help.

348
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 2: That's what I've decided to do.

Speaker 1: of Jewish Insider. He is here to talk about the

354
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: war in Iran plus other news going on in Washington.

355
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: My friend Josh Kraushawer is here. Josh, Welcome back to

356

Speaker 1: the Scott Jennings Show. I see you on the monitor here.

357
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: You're in the uh Kraushower patio area taking advantage of

358
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: the nice Washington area weather, and you and I are

359
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: both ready for the beginning of baseball season today.

360
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us.

361
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 11: Yeah, thanks Scott. It's great to be back on the show.

362
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 11: It's this is the nerve center where it all happens,

363
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 11: both a Jewish Insider and Fox News and uh yeah,

364
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 11: we're all the It's very yeah. The fact that spring

365
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 11: is almost here DC very unpredictable marches. It comes in

366
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 11: like a lion, out like a lamb, but eager for baseball.

367
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 11: It's gonna be fun tonight.

368
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 2: Absolutely same same for me.

369
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: Although you and I a Nats and Cardinals, those these

370
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 1: are our teams. I don't have a I'm just hoping

371
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: for the best in the rebuild for Cardinal Nation. We

372
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: have just settled on rebuilding for the next couple of years.

373
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 1: I don't know what you've settled on with the Nats.

374
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: I'm not entirely.

375
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 11: Sure what you're spoiled. The Cardinals had a couple down

376
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 11: years and now it's you know, and no one's showing

377
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 11: up at Bush Stadium. We've we've had city, you know,

378
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 11: since the World Series in twenty nineteen. We've had six

379
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 11: really dismal years. And hopefully we can get off the

380
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 11: schneid that this campaign with some good young prospects.

381
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, we'll follow along with baseball beginning this week, Josh.

382
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: We're also following along other news, and I want to

383
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: start with the war in Iran. So it seems like, Josh,

384
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 1: we've got back and forth going on between Trump and

385
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: Trump's envoys and some people in the Iranian government, whatever's

386
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 1: left over there. There was some rumor that it was

387
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 1: the speaker of the Iranian parliament. There's been some news

388
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 1: that the White House offered up some peace plan points

389
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: to Iran, and RAN's publicly saying they're rejecting that. There's

390
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 1: also other news that there could be talks and negotiations

391
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: set up for this weekend.

392
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 2: What are you hearing on this? What do you expect

393
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 2: to come of it over the next few days.

394
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 11: Well, Scott, there appear to be some backchannel negotiations which

395
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 11: which are quite significant. And we've learned that there's this

396
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 11: fifteen point plan that the White House has sent to

397
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 11: Iran and was rejected by the Iranians. And it frankly

398
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 11: looks very similar Scott to sort of the conditions that

399
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 11: the US was looking at discussing before the war began, namely,

400
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 11: I Ran getting rid of its ballistic missile missile production

401
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 11: and getting rid of its nuclear enrichment, and and and

402
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 11: and and and stop sponsoring terrorist activities in the region.

403
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 11: That's why the war began. The Ran rejected those those conditions,

404
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 11: and and we're now at the same moment where a

405
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 11: lot of I think Iran's see the devastation of Iran's

406
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 11: military infrastructure in the last few weeks. Uh, there's a

407
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 11: pass I know israel Is is kind of they budgeted

408
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 11: I think around you know, eight weeks maybe of of

409
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 11: of of enough wartime to really degrade significantly. Uh, those

410
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 11: that infrastructure, the military infrastructure Iran has. But look, I

411
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 11: think Trump is giving the Iranian regime and out, but

412
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 11: it would impose various severe conditions if there was some

413
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 11: kind of ceasefire or some kind of deal struck. So

414
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 11: I'm you know, I remember that we've had these conversations

415
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 11: at dil back channel diplomacy before the war began. It

416
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 11: didn't really lead anywhere. I'm not very optimistic it's going

417
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 11: to lead anywhere at this point. But there are domestic

418
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 11: political pressures that the White House is facing, namely the

419
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 11: rise and gas prices, and it's something that Trumps never

420
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 11: backed away from the possibility of making a deal, and

421
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 11: he's still looking to do so with the Iranian regime

422
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 11: down on its heels.

423
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 1: The red line for Trump has been and remains first

424
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 1: and foremost, the nuclear weapons piece. I mean, this is

425
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 1: what triggered this war in the first place. Wick, Coff

426
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,199
Speaker 1: and Kushner go to talk to the Iranians. They say, well,

427
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: we got enough enriched uranium here to make eleven nuclear bombs,

428
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: they tell Trump, and all of a sudden, where it

429
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: war with Iran. That's still got to be the red line, right.

430
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: I Mean, my view is you can't exit this without

431
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: being able to tell the American people we went and

432
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 1: we met the principal objective, which is to stop these

433
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,399
Speaker 1: Iranians from ever having the possibility of building a nuclear weapon.

434
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 2: You agree with them, that's right.

435
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 11: I think there are two essential conditions the US side,

436
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 11: certainly UH for this war to end up with a victory,

437
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 11: which is number one. There's been discussion about sending some

438
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 11: kind of special forces unit to secure the nuclear material

439
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 11: that that you know, Iran still has under their control,

440
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 11: and that that would I think be a complicated operation.

441
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 11: It's been talked about, We've seen some reporting in the press,

442
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 11: but that that is one idea being floated about to

443
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 11: ensure that Iran doesn't have these the same nuclear capabilities

444
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 11: that they did before the war.

445
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 12: UH.

446
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 11: The other big issue I think that Trump is going

447
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 11: to need to resolve before he can actually declare a

448
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 11: win for the United States and our allies is clearing

449
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 11: and and and opening up the straight up horn moves

450
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 11: once again. And I think that might be a little

451
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 11: more complicated than than he'd he initially bargained for. And

452
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 11: it may actually take more you know, military assets into

453
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 11: the region to lead a coalition to clear up the

454
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 11: shipping lanes. But that's something that Iran has been playing

455
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 11: an asymmetrical game. They don't have the military strength, but

456
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 11: they do have the ability to really make things dicey

457
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 11: for the US and its allies, and I think that's

458
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 11: one of the conditions that Trump is going to need

459
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 11: to resolve before declaring victory.

460
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: Josh Krausharer is our guest. He's the editor of Jewish Insider. Josh,

461
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: talk to us about the Israeli perspective right now, because

462
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 1: I think, you know, for them, this is the end

463
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: of October the seventh. I mean, part of the reason

464
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: they're going after Iran is because Iran funded, planned and

465
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: stands up all these proxies that ultimately led to what

466
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: happened on October the seventh. But long term, you know,

467
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,159
Speaker 1: I think a lot of Americans wonder, Okay, well, what

468
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,880
Speaker 1: are we going to be doing here over time, even

469
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 1: after the military operations basically come to an end. What

470
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: kind of monitoring is going to be required, What kind

471
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: of international coalitions, say would be needed to keep the

472
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: Strait of horor moves open? And for Israel, talk to

473
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: us about their perspective on you know, what will be

474
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: eternal vigilance I assume, on monitoring Iran so that they

475
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: never are able to build up the kind of tear

476
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 1: network that led to what happened on October the seventh.

477
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, Scott, if you live at Israel right now,

478
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 11: you're going to bombshelter, you know, at least several times

479
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 11: a day because of the missile barrage that Iran is

480
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 11: is thrown against against both Israel and a lot of

481
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,160
Speaker 11: the other US allies in the region. So you have

482
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 11: the reality of being in more time, and you also

483
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 11: have the reality that most Israeli Is, an overwhelming number

484
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 11: of Israelis support the war because they know what how

485
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 11: significant a threat Ran poses to the day to day

486
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 11: livelihoods of Israelis. They lived through October seventh. They know

487
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 11: that the kind of Iran is ahead of the snake.

488
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 11: But there so there were so many proxies like Hesbula Hamas,

489
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 11: the Hutis that that have been part of that Iranian

490
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 11: kind of coalition, if you will, and and they're they're

491
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 11: in it for the long haul. I think the Israelis

492
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 11: have said, at least according to public reporting, that they

493
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 11: think that they can kind of significantly degrade Iran's military

494
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 11: capabilities in about eight weeks, and that I think that's

495
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 11: the time frame that psychologically Israelis are kind of budgeting

496
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 11: for this war to last. Now, there are certainly political

497
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 11: pressures at home that that that Donald Trump, President Trump

498
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 11: is dealing with. But I think that the other the other,

499
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 11: the other difference, I think from the Israeli perspective is

500
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 11: they really would love and are committed to seeing this

501
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:17,360
Speaker 11: regime of the Iatolas uh literally you know, taken out

502
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 11: and and and thrown to the dustment of history. That

503
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 11: that is a focus of Theirs. I don't think the

504
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 11: you know, I think the military successes in the first

505
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 11: month of the campaign have been quite significant, though I

506
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,879
Speaker 11: also think that the IRGC and a lot of the

507
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 11: remnants of the Revolutionary Guard are still very much entrenched,

508
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 11: and the notion of regime change may look a little

509
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 11: more distant that it did, and Israelis are willing to

510
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 11: see this through to actually have less threatening regime in

511
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 11: Iran by whatever means possible.

512
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 2: Vois.

513
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: You're hearing Josh Kraushaw. Are you see him on Fox News?

514
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: Here him on Fox News Radio and also he is

515
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: the editor of Jewish Insider, one of the most experienced

516
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: political journalists in Washington, d C.

517
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 2: Josh shifting gears. Just for a moment, We've got a

518
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 2: minute half left here, So how is this shutdown going

519
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 2: to end?

520
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: We've been reporting all week on the efforts to get

521
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: a deal to end the DHS shutdown. Seemed like maybe

522
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: there was movement for a deal over the last couple

523
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: of days.

524
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,719
Speaker 2: That feels like it might be falling apart. Today.

525
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: Senator Moreno of Ohio tells me they're going to vote

526
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 1: on it Thursday one way or the other. What do

527
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: you think Democrats are going to do here? And politically,

528
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: who's winning and losing on the shutdown?

529
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 8: Well?

530
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 11: Maybe I'm old school Scott, but the notion that we're

531
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 11: in a war and we have a very heightened level

532
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 11: of potential Iranian back threats to the homeland and we

533
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 11: don't have DHS funded is a scandal to me. Like,

534
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 11: there's actually the outlines of a deal, and I think

535
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 11: Republicans are willing to fund DHS carve out, you know,

536
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 11: according to all the comments being made by Republican leaders,

537
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 11: I think they're willing to kind of leave out the

538
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 11: ICE funding. And by the way, the Reconciliation Bill very

539
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 11: much allocated plenty of money for ICE, so I don't

540
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 11: think that's as much of a concern, at least for

541
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 11: the time being for Republicans, and yet you still have

542
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 11: Democrats looking to hold out and trying to get more

543
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 11: more restrictions and regulations as part of any any compromise. Look,

544
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 11: it's you see that you obviously the political pressure with

545
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 11: the lines at some of their airports, that that's that's

546
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 11: a political problem. But I'm stunned that it's not. There's

547
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 11: not more political pressure. We're at war, we're facing significant

548
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 11: level of threats to the homeland, and we're content and

549
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 11: know there's been no impetus for Democrats to step up

550
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 11: and at least during this very fraud period that to

551
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 11: make sure we're the Homelandsecurity Department is fully funded. If

552
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 11: God forbid, if something happens, it's gonna there's gonna be

553
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 11: a lot of a lot of people regretting not not

554
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 11: not acting sooner.

555
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: Josh Krauscher, Jewish Insider, you see him on Fox News.

556
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us. We'll have you back soon. Appreciate you, brother.

557
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 11: Thanks Scott.

558
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 2: A word from our friends at Patriot Mobile.

559
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 1: You know, most wireless companies don't care who you are

560
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 1: or what you believe.

561
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 2: They just want your money.

562
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: But our friends at Patriot Mobile are different and for

563

564
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: believe that freedom is worth defending, and they've been funding

565
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: the Christian Conservative movement while others stay silent. That's why

566
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: I love Patriot Mobile. That's why I do business with

567

Speaker 1: That's our wireless provider here at the Scott Jennings Show.

00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 2: It is Wednesday, March twenty fifth.

581
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 1: We are currently watching some video here of White House

582
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: Press Secretary Caroline Levitt. She has taken the podium in

583
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 1: the last few minutes and she did announce by the

584
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: way that President Trump's long awaited meeting with President she

585
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: of will now take place in Beijing on May fourteenth

586
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 1: and May the fifteenth, So that was a little bit

587
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: of news. The First Lady will host President she and

588
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: his wife for a reciprocal visit in Washington, d C.

589
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: At a date to be announced later this year. So

590
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: diplomacy with the Chinese will commence in Beijing on May

591
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: fourteenth and May fifteenth.

592
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 2: On the Senate floor.

593
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: Also looking at video right now of the Senate Majority

594
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,239
Speaker 1: Leader John Foon. So he's been having some back and

595
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 1: forth with the Democrats in the Senate over how to

596
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: get the Department of Homeland Security funded. Republicans made an

597
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: offer which was for democratic purposes, very simple. It's fun

598
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: everything at DHS except for ICE, and that would include TSA.

599
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: The Democrats have responded with a counter offer, and Fun

600
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: is now on the floor telling us that it is

601
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: the same as their past offers. He's bashing this, he says,

602
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: there's quote no point to Republicans sending another counter offer.

603
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 1: Here's a quote from Senator thuon they're asking for things

604
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,959
Speaker 1: that have already been turned down. So it just seems

605
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 1: like they're going in circles and Thuon is saying that

606
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: warrants and mask demands have never been on the table

607
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: for Republicans and that Democrats know that. So what's going

608
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: to happen on the floor of the Senate tomorrow is

609
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: that Republicans are going to put up their plan which

610
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: would fund all of the Department of Homeland Security except

611
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: for ICE. So that would be about two hundred and

612
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: fifty six thousand of the two hundred sixty thousand employees.

613
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: They're going to put that on the Florida tomorrow and

614
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: see what happens. Republicans, I think, are going to vote

615
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: for it. Democrats are going to vote against it. And

616
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: we're in day forty of this crazy shutdown. Last night

617
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: I was on CNN and wanted to bring a little

618
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: audio to you from my latest debate. I don't think

619
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: I've debated her before, but former Congresswoman Val Demings of Florida.

620
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: You might remember her if you're down in the Sunshine State.

621
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: She came by for a debate. At least she wasn't

622
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: prepared for it, but we'll listen to it. Nonetheless, here's

623
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: cut sixteen, and.

624
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 13: So the American people nor the troops on the ground,

625
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 13: have a clue what the president's mission is, what the

626
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 13: way out is? Thirteen people us so just have already died.

627
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,280
Speaker 13: We need a clear mission. Respectfully, ask you a question.

628
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 14: Do you believe that Iran has been the world's largest

629
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 14: state sponsor of terror for the last nearly president.

630
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 13: Is the one Scott who said nine months ago, I'm

631
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 13: asking you that that he I'm always you literate it

632
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 13: any capability that they had, you know, what is the

633
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 13: what is the mission?

634
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 14: Now? I think the president I'd like to ask you.

635
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 2: We're having a debate, So I'm asking question, believe.

636
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 13: The Americans explanation for why it's okay to send our

637
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 13: sons and daughters into a war, into a war because

638
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 13: people have you sent an additional one?

639
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 14: Because you're nobody's yelling right now because because you're not

640
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 14: prepared for of this debate. Let me tell you what

641
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 14: prospectives are. Number one, they are the world's largest state

642
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 14: supporter and exporter of terrorism. Number two, they have a

643
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 14: ballistic missile program, which we found out this past weekend

644
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 14: can reach most of Europe.

645
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 2: Number Three, they lie about their table. They lied about

646
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 2: at the table that is discussion.

647
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 15: There.

648
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 14: Why wasn't you.

649
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 1: Why weren't our allies I've seen, I've seen now, Why

650
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 1: you don't know the objectives?

651
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 2: You all stopped talking long enough to listen. Number A

652
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 2: number three they have a navy, the therasas ships.

653
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 13: In the beginning number discussion and the sertain number four.

654
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 2: In the original to sixty. Do you listen to what

655
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 2: I have to put up with night after night? I mean,

656
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 2: it's really unbelievable.

657
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 12: Do you hear this?

658
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 1: There is no reasonable conversation, There is no debate. You

659
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: have people who have August titles like congress person or

660
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: in her case, I think sheriff for chief of police

661
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: or whatever she was in Orlando, and they show up

662
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 1: and these are serious issues. Going to war is a

663
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: serious issue, but there is no active listening. This is

664
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,919
Speaker 1: probably the thing that would shock you the most about

665
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:15,760
Speaker 1: what happens on cable television. There is literally no active listening.

666
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: Did you hear any listening there? This poor lady val Demmings,

667
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: she can't listen because it's difficult to listen if you

668
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 1: just keep talking the entire time. And the reason they

669
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: keep talking the entire time is because they know that

670
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 1: if they permit me or a Republican or a conservative

671
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,479
Speaker 1: to talk. They're not going to be able to answer

672
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 1: the questions, so they want to come out with the

673
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,880
Speaker 1: talking points. There's no mission, we have no idea what

674
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: we're doing. You lay it out, but they know if

675
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 1: you're allowed to lay it out, they're going to sound stupid.

676
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 2: So the only alternative is I'm.

677
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: Just going to keep talking and keep shouting and keep

678
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: saying President Trump over and over again and putting my

679
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: fingers in my ears, and we'll see what happens. Sort

680
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 1: of mind numbing, honestly, but I think we made the

681
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: points and hopefully the American people are getting it.

682
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 2: Hour number two is next. It's Scott Jennings on Salem.

683
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 2: Stay with us. It is Wednesday, March twenty fifth.

684
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,439
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us here on the Scott Jennings Show

685
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,320
Speaker 1: Common Sense for the American people. Normally I give you

686
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 1: a quick check of the headlines, but I think I'm

687
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 1: going to start this hour with the breaking news out

688
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 1: of Washington, d C. It appears that in the United

689
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 1: States Senate the deal to possibly get the Department of

690
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 1: Homeland Security funded is crumbling. We've had Senator Thun, the

691
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 1: Republican leader, on the floor in just the last few

692
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 1: minutes talking about the back and forth we're having with

693
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,839
Speaker 1: Democrats here, and it just doesn't sound like it's going

694
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 1: well at all. Democrats moving the goalposts on what they

695
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 1: want to get DHS funded. In order to illuminate this situation,

696
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: I do have on the phone a member of how

697
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 1: of Senate Republican leadership, John Barrasso, Senator Barasso is on

698
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 1: the line. He just steps off the Senate floor and

699
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 1: he joins us live. Senator Barasso, thank you for your time.

700
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: I know you all are in the middle of it

701
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 1: there in the United States Senate, but tell us what's

702
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: going on. It sounds like from Senator Thun's remarks, the

703
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: Democrats here want to keep this shut down going.

704
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 2: Is that your understanding?

705
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:12,839
Speaker 9: It sure seems that way to me. Scott. It's great

706
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 9: to be with you. You know, you have lots of

707
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 9: fans here on the Republican side of the aisle in

708
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 9: the Senate. And what we're proposing is something that the

709
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 9: President agrees we need to do, which is open up

710
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 9: all of government, all of the Department of Homeland Security.

711
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,399
Speaker 9: There are parts of it that we pre funded last year,

712
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 9: and what the President calls the you know, the one

713
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 9: big beautiful bill. It's our working families tax cut law.

714
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 9: So we've pre funded the specific ice things because we

715
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 9: knew the Democrats were not going to be for that.

716
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 9: So we need to get the government open. In the

717
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 9: standpoint of the Department of Homeland Security, which is this

718
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 9: comprehensive department set up after nine to eleven when we

719
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 9: were under attack, and it's to protect our airports, our borders,

720
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 9: it's such attack against cyber attacks, all of those areas things,

721
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 9: and the Democrats have been against it because as Senator

722
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 9: Chris Murphy, who's from Connecticut, very liberal, has said, and

723
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,359
Speaker 9: the videos around there, I can send you a copy

724
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 9: of this, he says, the people we care about, most

725
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 9: undocumented migrants. The Democrats would rather stand with legal immigrant

726
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 9: criminals than with the safety and security the American people,

727
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 9: and that's regrettably where they're making their stand. We had

728
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:25,879
Speaker 9: agreement two days ago, Chuck Schumer agreed to the sources

729
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 9: of things we needed to do to open the government,

730
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 9: and he must have gotten an earful from some of

731
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 9: his conference because now he has moved the goalpost, significantly

732
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 9: walked back what he had agreed to before. But we're

733
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 9: going to have a vote later today in the Senate

734
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 9: on what he had agreed to before and put.

735
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 2: Them all on the record. That is Senator John Barrasso

736
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 2: from Wyoming.

737
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 1: He is number two in the Senate Republican leadership, and

738
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: he speaks to us now live just steps off the

739
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,800
Speaker 1: Senate floor. We're talking about are we going to be

740
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,320
Speaker 1: able to get DHS funded?

741
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:57,720
Speaker 2: And that includes TSA.

742
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 1: Senator, it is incredible to me that these Democrats are

743
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 1: willing to inflict this much pain on the American people.

744
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: We're seeing three four five hour lines at airports around

745
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 1: the country, and as you just pointed out, they had

746
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 1: absolutely moved the goalposts. They said they wanted to find everything,

747
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: including TSA. But Ice, you said, fine, let's do it.

748
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 1: And now they're saying, whoa, whoa. You called their bluff

749
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: and now they're running away from a deal. It just

750
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: feels like we're nowhere near the end of this and

751
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,440
Speaker 1: we're in spring break season. Just a message for the

752
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: American people here. If you're standing in line, Senator, in

753
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 1: your opinion, who is causing the misery, Well, it's the Democrats.

754
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:36,879
Speaker 14: They don't seem to care.

755
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 9: One of the Democrat House members say, well, we're going

756
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 9: to cause pain. Another one of the Democrats in the

757
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,760
Speaker 9: Senate said he felt serene with the position that they've taken.

758
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 9: This is obscene. It's not serene. It's terrible to the

759
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 9: people in line. And it's not just the people in line,

760
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 9: the TSA agents who are showing up, and we know

761
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 9: that many of them aren't coming to work or they're

762
00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 9: calling in sick. Well, it's not because they're sick. Some

763
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 9: of them are trying to actually go make money as

764
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 9: uber drivers are doing other sort of things like that

765
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 9: to earn money. There was a story about some of

766
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 9: them going to sell plasma to earn money.

767
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 12: Are current.

768
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 9: My Rotary Club in Casper, Wyoming put out an email

769
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 9: this morning said currently there are forty TSA employees in

770
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 9: Casper who are not being paid. Well, they haven't been

771
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 9: paid this whole Democrat shutdown. It says the airport is

772
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 9: collecting food and other supplies, dog food, cat food, toilet paper.

773
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 9: The employees can't accept cash or cash equivalent cards like

774
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 9: Visa gift cards. However, they can accept gas cards and

775
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 9: gift cards to places like Walmart or Target, which give

776
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 9: them the flexibility to purchase what they truly need. So

777
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:43,359
Speaker 9: once again, the American people, big hearted people are coming

778
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 9: to the aid of the TSA agents. But people have

779
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 9: been standing in line for hours to get through the

780
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 9: security lines. And this is all on the Democrats who

781
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,279
Speaker 9: refuse to fund the Department of Homeland Security, which is

782
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 9: set up to keep us straight safe. After nine to eleven,

783
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:02,760
Speaker 9: they continue, the Democrats continue to stand up for illegal

784
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,320
Speaker 9: immigrant criminals more than the safety and security of the

785
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 9: American people.

786
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 1: Senator I heard an incredible statistic today, and that is

787
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:14,879
Speaker 1: that in this fiscal year, the TSA has been shut

788
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: down and the DHS has been shut down for fifty

789
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 1: percent of the days in this fiscal year. How in

790
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:26,240
Speaker 1: the world can you expect to run a national transportation system,

791
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 1: How in the world can you keep us safe from terrorism?

792
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,839
Speaker 1: If you know, and this is Democrats shutdowns, If you're

793
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,359
Speaker 1: willing to keep this stuff closed half the time, I mean,

794
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 1: that ought to be alarming to the American people that

795
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 1: this critical agency is open literally half the time because

796
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 1: of Democrats.

797
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 2: It's nuts.

798
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, And Republicans have continued to bring forth legislation called

799
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 9: the Shutdown Fairness Act and prevent shutdowns those sorts of things.

800
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 9: Democrats block them. The Democrats love to shut down the

801
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 9: government because they hate President Trump. You know, there's this

802
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 9: really great book out there for your listeners. If they

803
00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 9: haven't read it, they Should's called a Revolution of com

804
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 9: and Sense. A guy named Scott Jennings wrote it. It

805
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 9: is full of common sense items, and it seems that

806
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 9: every time the President comes up with some eighty percent

807
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:13,760
Speaker 9: positive common sense idea, the Democrats, these knee jerk liberals,

808
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 9: they seem to have to oppose it just because the

809
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,800
Speaker 9: President has supported it. I mean, this is where we

810
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 9: are today because they hate the president so much they'd

811
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 9: rather hurt the American people that help the country move forward.

812
00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: Senator, we're all focused on what's happening at the airports,

813
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,320
Speaker 1: but as you pointed out, the Department of Homeland Security

814
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: deals with a lot of things, and we are at

815
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 1: war were the ran right now, and we have had

816
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 1: numerous instances of radical Islamic domestic terrorism here in the

817
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:43,000
Speaker 1: United States. How worried should people be that DHS is

818
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 1: closed right now at a time when we are seeing

819
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 1: heightened threats from radical Islamic terrorists in our own country.

820
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 9: Well, we're certainly on red alert, and the security agencies

821
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 9: will tell you that you know, we still don't know

822
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 9: who are going to be radicalized as terrorists who are

823
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:03,160
Speaker 9: here as sleeper sales, and then what organized from Iran.

824
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,479
Speaker 9: Cyber attacks can come and you may have seen there's

825
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 9: a cyber attack against a medical firm, a nationwide firm

826
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 9: that successfully got through and it shut down their operations.

827
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 9: So Iran is continuing in spite of this significant and

828
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 9: successful bombings. They still have the capacity to try the

829
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 9: cyber attacks. That's all coming at us. And we do

830
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:25,960
Speaker 9: have in the Department of Homeland Security, now shut down

831
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 9: by the Democrats, a cyber component to that. It does cybersecurity,

832
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 9: and I think over half of them are on furlough,

833
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 9: so they're not getting paid, they're not working, and we

834
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 9: are a definite risk at home from terrorism abroad as

835
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 9: well as at home.

836
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 2: Senator, last question for you.

837
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 1: Obviously, Schumer has made his position clear he doesn't want

838
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 1: to fund the Department of Homeland Security. I have a

839
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: hard time believing that there aren't at least a few

840
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,800
Speaker 1: Democrats in his conference who are looking at these airport

841
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,759
Speaker 1: situations back in their home states and gritting teeth. There

842
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 1: seems to be one reasonable person, John Fetterman, is it

843
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 1: possible that Schumer could face a jail break from inside

844
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,360
Speaker 1: of his own conference people who just can't stand the

845
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 1: idea that the Democratic Party has become known for one

846
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: thing and one thing only, and that's inflicting pain on

847
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 1: the American people, all to support and coddle and keep

848
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 1: here illegal aliens. I mean, that's what their brand is,

849
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,719
Speaker 1: That's the Schumer brand right now. Are Democrats really willing.

850
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 2: To live with this?

851
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 9: But we're going to find out when we call the

852
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 9: vote later today to see how many stand up for

853
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 9: the American people and how many just followed Chuck over

854
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 9: the liberal cliff. You know, there's an effort called Chuck

855
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 9: Chuck to get rid of Chuck Schumer. That the liberal

856
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 9: base of the Democrat Party and you're doing. These are

857
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 9: the folks that you elected. Mondami in New York is

858
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 9: the mayor. So that is where the energy and the

859
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:55,280
Speaker 9: action is in the Democrat Party. And Chuck is trying

860
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 9: to follow them because they're the ones that leading them,

861
00:45:58,520 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 9: and they're going to there's no way to sign up

862
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 9: that group. They hate President Trump so much that there

863
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 9: is no satisfying them. They're reflexively anti Trump no matter

864
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 9: what President Trump says, good, bad or indifference. They are

865
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:15,200
Speaker 9: after and against President Trump.

866
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 12: And you know who they are.

867
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,360
Speaker 9: I mean, there's in the elitist, the coastal elites, the

868
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:21,800
Speaker 9: people in California and New York City, the Boston those folks,

869
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 9: and they're the people in the sanctuary states. And that's

870
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,240
Speaker 9: what the fight is about right now across the country.

871
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 9: And we need to continue to stand up for common

872
00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,760
Speaker 9: sense principles that the American people voted for in twenty

873
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,359
Speaker 9: twenty four when we return President Trump to the White House.

874
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: Senator Barasso from Wyoming, you're number two in command there

875
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: in the Republican Conference. Thanks for stepping off the Senate

876
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 1: floor to update us on this evolving and disappointing situation.

877
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,439
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you again soon and appreciate your reading

878
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 1: the book. A lot of people did, and I'm glad

879
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,400
Speaker 1: you're one of them, because you're one of our favorites

880
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:55,880
Speaker 1: there in the United States Senate.

881
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 9: You asked the question in the book, does it make

882
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 9: America safer? Does it make America strong? Does it make

883
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 9: America more prosperous? And that's what I'm working for every day.

884
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 2: We know you are, sir. Thanks for the time today

885
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 2: and we'll see what happens this afternoon.

886
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 1: The breaking news from Senator Barasso is even though Democrats

887
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,359
Speaker 1: are balking, the Republicans are still going to put up

888
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,480
Speaker 1: on the floor this afternoon a funding bill to get

889
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: DHS and TSA that means the airport's open and functional again.

890
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:26,799
Speaker 2: Will Democrats go to the floor and vote it down?

891
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 1: It sounds like yes, but they're going to get a

892
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,200
Speaker 1: chance to see, and you'll get a chance to see

893
00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 1: do they stand with the American people or do they

894
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: stand with the illegals. We'll find out this afternoon. More

895
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 1: to come on the Scott Jenning Show after this, fighting

896
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 1: the left.

897
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 10: With the best weapon we have common sense. This is

898
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 10: the Scott Jenning Show.

899
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,320
Speaker 1: Here on Wednesday, March twenty fifth, we're tracking the breaking

900
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 1: news in Washington. It seems like things are falling apart

901
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,240
Speaker 1: over in the Senate to get the Department of Homeland

902
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 1: Security funded. Democrats are balking at the latest Republican effort

903
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 1: to get this agency open to get the airports running properly.

904
00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: There is we just learned here on the Scott Jenning

905
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 1: Show from Senator Barasso. There is going to be a

906
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: vote on the Senate floor this afternoon. We're expecting Democrats

907
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 1: to vote against it, as they have been for the

908
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 1: last forty days, and the White House Press Secretary Caroline

909
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 1: Levitt is briefing the media as we speak. We have

910
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 1: a bite from Caroline here. Let's listen to Cut twenty seven.

911
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,200
Speaker 16: It's the Democrats who have led to this stalemate over

912
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,760
Speaker 16: the past six weeks. The President and the Republicans position

913
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,800
Speaker 16: has been very clear, fund the Department of Homeland Security.

914
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,800
Speaker 1: To comment on all of this is the vice chairman

915
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:40,840
Speaker 1: of the House Republican Conference. He represents Utah's first congressional district.

916
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:44,760
Speaker 1: Congressman Blake Moore is joining us for his inaugural appearance

917
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 1: on The Scott Jenning Show. Congressman Moore, thanks for your

918
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:50,919
Speaker 1: time today. You're hearing the breaking news at the same

919
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 1: time we are. Obviously, the House Republicans have voted to

920
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,040
Speaker 1: fund the Department of Homeland Security. But when you see

921
00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: the Democrats posture in the Senate and like, we're back

922
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 1: at square one here, what's your reaction to that?

923
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think it's completely nonsensical at this point there.

924
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 15: If I think where we were maybe six weeks ago,

925
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 15: with everything going on in Minnesota and what happened since

926
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 15: then President Trump brought in Tom Homan, a consummate professional,

927
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,520
Speaker 15: someone who understands this, has worked for multiple administrations Republican

928
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 15: and Democrat, brought that temperature down. There's a change at

929
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 15: the secretary level. And that can't even be enough for

930
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:31,879
Speaker 15: Democrats to go, Okay, yeah, this is good, this is good.

931
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,439
Speaker 15: We're moving in the right direction. And you know where,

932
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,239
Speaker 15: there's a give and take that has to happen in

933
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,080
Speaker 15: the Senate to get to a point where they fund it.

934
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,720
Speaker 15: And so it's just it's just nonsensical the republic Democrats

935
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,919
Speaker 15: have supported this level of funding over and over again,

936
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 15: have lasted Republicans for not being willing and calling it

937
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 15: dangerous to go into these shutdowns. We've got TSA officers.

938
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 15: These folks haven't been paid over three times over the

939
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 15: last six months in long period stretches for just showing

940
00:49:57,719 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 15: up to work.

941
00:49:58,160 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 2: It's ridiculous.

942
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,920
Speaker 1: Congressman, you're from Utah. What are you hearing from your

943
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:06,239
Speaker 1: people back home at the Salt Lake Airport? We're seeing

944
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,680
Speaker 1: long lines at airports across the country. How are they

945
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:10,759
Speaker 1: handling it back in Salt Lake? Sitting?

946
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 15: Well, I'll tell you you know, Salt Lake, Utah. In general,

947
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,800
Speaker 15: we typically run things pretty well. They're going through some

948
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 15: pain right now. There's extra support for our TSA agents

949
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 15: based at the airport, you know, food services, things like that,

950
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 15: to help out at least Olivia some of the burdens.

951
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 15: So Utah does things really well in times like this.

952
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 15: We have national parks when Democrats shut down everything last fall,

953
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 15: like our state steps in and we try to keep

954
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 15: things running. We can't do it forever, but we do

955
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 15: a good job of covering it so there's not those

956
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 15: pain points. But when I go through security, and I've

957
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 15: been through security probably eight times during this last this

958
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 15: last month and a half, I look at these folks

959
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 15: and I'm like, thank you, thanks for being here.

960
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 2: This makes absolutely no more sense.

961
00:50:57,760 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 15: And the fact that you have nothing to do with

962
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 15: any of these partisan fights that are going on that

963
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,520
Speaker 15: Schumer's trying to lead, it's like they can't take yes

964
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,600
Speaker 15: for an answer. They're you know, the rhetorica everything in

965
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 15: Minneapolis is there's they they've toned things down, they're addressing things.

966
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 15: The Trump administration is securing the border. They are trying

967
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 15: to make sure that that violent crime crimes being committed

968
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 15: by legal immigrants. Those are the ones that are the

969
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 15: priority on the deportation and like, trying to navigate the

970
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,640
Speaker 15: rest of this and the immigration policy is incredibly difficult,

971
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 15: and the Trump administration is navigating and the very best

972
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 15: they can. We're just saying, let's fund that last portion.

973
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 15: This is the twelfth of twelve bills. And Democrats are

974
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 15: just going to hang on to it for another political reason.

975
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 15: And it's those tsah instead of showing up every day

976
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:46,839
Speaker 15: without any pay that are that are bearing the brunt

977
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 15: of it.

978
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, the congressman, it seems to me this entire thing

979
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,839
Speaker 1: is about immigration, and the Democratic Party has been taken

980
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 1: over by people who simply don't want to enforce any

981
00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 1: immigration laws at all.

982
00:51:59,400 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 2: Uh.

983
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 1: Even when you have stories going on like this terrible

984
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 1: murder in Chicago, Sheridan Gorman, eighteen year old college freshman

985
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:10,120
Speaker 1: murdered by a Venezuelan illegal alien in the country illegally

986
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:13,120
Speaker 1: for a few years in a sanctuary city, kills an

987
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 1: American citizen, eighteen year old girl, entire life ahead of her.

988
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 1: Even stories like that seem not to shape the resolve

989
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party to fully stand up for their

990
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: number one constituency, which is illegal aliens.

991
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:28,320
Speaker 2: Right now, I'll give you the last word on this.

992
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:29,440
Speaker 2: I got twenty seconds.

993
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,239
Speaker 1: Is there anything that can be done from your perspective

994
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:33,719
Speaker 1: over in the House or are you guys just sort

995
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 1: of at the mercy of the Senate right now?

996
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 15: And it's so wild to me because fourteen months ago,

997
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 15: the very first bill that President Trump signed when he

998
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 15: came into office was the Lincoln Riley Act, and it

999
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,839
Speaker 15: was because Democrats actually supported There were enough democrats. There

1000
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 15: wasn't full support by any means, but there were enough

1001
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 15: Democrats to come on board and say, hey, this is wrong.

1002
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 15: So the scenario, the tragic event that you just mentioned,

1003
00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,759
Speaker 15: there's going to be more of that nonsense going on,

1004
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:04,040
Speaker 15: and were awful. We had support fourteen months ago to

1005
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,640
Speaker 15: do this, and right now they're just sticking together even

1006
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:09,440
Speaker 15: though yeah, good change as that are going on. We're

1007
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 15: navigating this really well.

1008
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:11,280
Speaker 4: It's ridiculous.

1009
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,400
Speaker 1: Congressman Blake Moore from Utah, thanks for your time. We'll

1010
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,640
Speaker 1: have you back soon. We know you're watching and waiting

1011
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 1: like the rest of us over in the US House.

1012
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: We'll take a break when we come back. Kansas Senator

1013
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:24,360
Speaker 1: Roger Marshall is here. Operation Arctic Frost was up yesterday.

1014
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 2: We'll learn about that.

1015
00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 10: Finding that for a free speech at Western civilization. This

1016
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 10: is the Scot Jenny Show and you're.

1017
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:36,000
Speaker 1: Listening to common sense for the American people here on Wednesday,

1018
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:39,760
Speaker 1: March twenty fifth. Not a lot of common sense, however,

1019
00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:43,319
Speaker 1: happening in the United States Senate right now. We broke

1020
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:45,759
Speaker 1: some news here at the top of this hour from

1021
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:50,840
Speaker 1: Senator Barasso of Wyoming, who tells us that Democrats have

1022
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: blown up. It sounds like the talks with Republicans about

1023
00:53:55,600 --> 00:54:00,839
Speaker 1: getting the Department of Homeland Security funded, and the Republicans

1024
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:02,719
Speaker 1: are sort of back at square one here, although they

1025
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 1: do have their deal that they got President Trump to

1026
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 1: agree to, which would essentially fund everything except for Ice,

1027
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:11,200
Speaker 1: and then they would do ice and save America in

1028
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:15,799
Speaker 1: a separate reconciliation package. But I guess the news here

1029
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 1: is the Republicans are going to put this on the

1030
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:21,919
Speaker 1: floor this afternoon. There will be a vote. Find out

1031
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: where your senator votes on this. If you live near

1032
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:29,160
Speaker 1: an airport, if you're at an airport, if you're using airports,

1033
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 1: if you're worried about terrorism, if you think the Coastguard

1034
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:34,040
Speaker 1: should be funded.

1035
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 2: Watch this vote this afternoon.

1036
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:40,759
Speaker 1: This bill they're going to vote on funds everything at

1037
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:45,160
Speaker 1: the Department of Homeland Security except for ICE. So this

1038
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 1: is TSA, cokest Guard, FEMA, all of it all would

1039
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:52,719
Speaker 1: be funded. This is what Democrats said they wanted. Now

1040
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:54,759
Speaker 1: they're saying they don't want that. They want something else,

1041
00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 1: And we're going to find out who stands where. We

1042
00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,719
Speaker 1: have Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas joining us in just

1043
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 1: a second. We're gonna talk about something else happening in

1044
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 1: the Senate, a big hearing yesterday. Let me put in

1045
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,880
Speaker 1: a quick word though, for our friends at Relief Factor.

1046
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to send some relief Factor up to

1047
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:16,160
Speaker 1: Senator Thune's office. He's suffering from the aches and pains

1048
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,880
Speaker 1: of having to deal with Chuck Schumer. If he did

1049
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:22,960
Speaker 1: take Relief Factor, he would find out that they have

1050
00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 1: added a premium black pepper extract to the formula, which

1051
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:30,040
Speaker 1: would help his body absorb the key ingredients. Even better,

1052
00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:33,600
Speaker 1: it would help alleviate the aches and pains of having

1053
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:38,760
Speaker 1: a deal with these Schumer led Democrats in the Senate. Listen,

1054
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,840
Speaker 1: here's a real talk. I've used it. People in my

1055
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,880
Speaker 1: family have used it. Thousands of people around the country

1056
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,120
Speaker 1: have used it. We get cards, we get letters, we

1057
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 1: get calls. They all say the same thing. I didn't

1058
00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:53,200
Speaker 1: know what to do. I tried Relief Factor, and Hoila,

1059
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,120
Speaker 1: things are getting better for me. I can get back

1060
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:59,719
Speaker 1: to regular life. There's a really simple way to try this.

1061
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:03,240
Speaker 1: It's called the three week Quick Start. It costs nineteen

1062
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,040
Speaker 1: dollars and ninety five cents. You had nothing to lose.

1063
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 1: Here relief Factor dot com or call one eight hundred

1064
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 1: and four relief Try it for three weeks.

1065
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 2: And if you feel better, keep going. I think you

1066
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 2: would not regret the decision.

1067
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: All right, joining us now, Kansas Senator Roger Marshall is

1068
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:26,080
Speaker 1: here now, Senator, I wanted to had you on it.

1069
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:27,879
Speaker 1: I want to talk about Arctic frost because you guys

1070
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:31,000
Speaker 1: had a big hearing yesterday about this, and obviously we

1071
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: continue to uncover all the malfeasans I think in the

1072
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: Biden era Department of Justice and the spying and the

1073
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:40,440
Speaker 1: harassment that went on of Republicans before we do that.

1074
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 1: I just wanted to get your quick comment on the

1075
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:46,360
Speaker 1: breaking news Democrats blowing up the funding here for DHS.

1076
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:49,359
Speaker 1: Yet again, how does this strike you and how does

1077
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,239
Speaker 1: it strike the people back in Kansas? Democrats simply keeping

1078
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:56,080
Speaker 1: this agency shut down for weeks at a time, putting

1079
00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:56,839
Speaker 1: us all at risk.

1080
00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:57,719
Speaker 2: What do you think?

1081
00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:00,719
Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, Scott, Well I would take a double dose

1082
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:05,320
Speaker 12: of relief factor right now, I really would. You know,

1083
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:07,920
Speaker 12: it's pretty much paralyzed the whole country. I mean, we're

1084
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 12: not able to work on anything else because of this,

1085
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:16,840
Speaker 12: you know, the TSA situations, the agents themselves, the officers themselves,

1086
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:20,320
Speaker 12: their families are at the end of their ropes, and

1087
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,760
Speaker 12: of course are constituents out there in four hour lines.

1088
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,919
Speaker 12: That just doesn't work, you know, Scott, when things don't

1089
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,320
Speaker 12: make sense to me. I mean, I can't explain why

1090
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 12: the Democrats said we'll fund everything, but ice we said great.

1091
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:36,000
Speaker 12: They're like the dog that caught the car, and now

1092
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,400
Speaker 12: they're going to say say no. So it's political, right,

1093
00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,680
Speaker 12: it's a political reason. They're not wanting to do this.

1094
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 12: They like the issue, they like the DHS being shut down,

1095
00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 12: they like the issues at the airport. The legacy media

1096
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,440
Speaker 12: is covering for them right now, blaming Republicans for it.

1097
00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 12: But we voted five times to fund it. We're going

1098
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:57,120
Speaker 12: to vote a six times this afternoon take out the

1099
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:01,720
Speaker 12: ICE funding that they wanted, and they won't take yes

1100
00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 12: for an answer. So we're yeah, frustrated. It would be

1101
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 12: an understatement.

1102
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:06,960
Speaker 2: Okay.

1103
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,480
Speaker 1: This is Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas reacting to the

1104
00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:13,000
Speaker 1: breaking news that Democrats have blown up the negotiations over

1105
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 1: getting Department of Homeland Security back and functioning. I heard

1106
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 1: the craziest stat today that in this fiscal year, fifty

1107
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 1: of the time this fiscal year DHS has been shut

1108
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 1: down because of Democratic shut down.

1109
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:27,760
Speaker 2: I mean, think about that.

1110
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 1: Half the time, if you're a TSA agent, half the

1111
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:33,080
Speaker 1: time you've spent being asked to come to work and

1112
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 1: not get paid.

1113
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 2: It's outrageous. And these people make fifty thousand dollars a year.

1114
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:37,520
Speaker 14: It's nuts.

1115
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:41,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, and that's why you know a lot of them

1116
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:43,720
Speaker 12: might quit, a lot of them are looking for other jobs.

1117
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:47,120
Speaker 12: They found another job. It'll take months to recover from this.

1118
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:52,240
Speaker 12: But again, why, it's the whyness the Democrats want the issue.

1119
00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 12: They waited thirty days for DHS to be shut down

1120
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:57,880
Speaker 12: before they even were willing to set down and talk

1121
00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 12: to us, and then on the on the floor on

1122
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 12: the Senate floor over the weekend, they say, well, we'll

1123
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,560
Speaker 12: fund everything but ice, and it was so great. We've

1124
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:08,640
Speaker 12: got the bill together, we've worked it out with the President.

1125
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 12: We're going to go back and fund ICE. We've already

1126
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:12,960
Speaker 12: funded it. We have two years of more of funding

1127
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 12: already because of our Working Family tax cuts bill, and

1128
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:19,120
Speaker 12: we'll go back into a reconciliation bill through with Republican

1129
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:22,000
Speaker 12: votes only to fund ICE for the next ten years.

1130
00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:24,680
Speaker 12: But now they're backing out of this, and it'll be

1131
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:26,280
Speaker 12: interesting to see where they go.

1132
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 1: All right, Roger Marshall of Kansas, US Senator is our guest.

1133
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 1: I want to talk about something that happened yesterday in

1134
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 1: the Senate. And we've covered this a little bit, but

1135
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 1: it's been a few months and I'm glad you all

1136
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:40,360
Speaker 1: revisited it. And it's this issue of Operation Arctic Frost.

1137
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:43,080
Speaker 1: And for our listener's sake, why don't you give us

1138
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 1: thirty seconds on this. This was you know, this was

1139
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 1: what was going on when Biden was in to sort

1140
00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:50,959
Speaker 1: of harass and spawn Republicans. But give us the thirty

1141
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 1: second synopsis of Operation Arctic Frost. What you've uncovered and

1142
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:57,160
Speaker 1: what we talked about in the hearing that happened in

1143
00:59:57,200 --> 00:59:58,040
Speaker 1: the Senate yesterday.

1144
00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 12: Yeah, so our archie Frost is a weaponization of the

1145
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 12: government by the Bide administration in twenty twenty two. This

1146
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:10,040
Speaker 12: was the Attorney General, this is the head of the FBI.

1147
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 12: They involved the appointed to Special counsel Jack Smith.

1148
01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:14,800
Speaker 2: They went on.

1149
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 12: They actually worked with the Post Office, they worked with

1150
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 12: the National Archives, and of course our telephone telecommunications company.

1151
01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:27,200
Speaker 12: We found out yesterday that they bugged Susie Wils's phone call,

1152
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:30,400
Speaker 12: a previous phone call with her lawyer. We found out

1153
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:33,760
Speaker 12: that a fifth of Republican Senators had their phone records

1154
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 12: retrieved and looked at as well. Again, Scott, I just

1155
01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:41,960
Speaker 12: think it's you know, Chuck Grassey called it worse than Watergate,

1156
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 12: and you know, I can't disagree with that. Watergate was

1157
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,880
Speaker 12: kind of a bottom down, bottom up crime, and this

1158
01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:51,160
Speaker 12: is a top, from the very top, multi agency crime

1159
01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:56,880
Speaker 12: of our constitutional rights. Is what occurred here, the total

1160
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:58,200
Speaker 12: weaponization of the government.

1161
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 1: So what happens now, I mean, obviously Jack Smith was

1162
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 1: involved in this other Biden administration people.

1163
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:06,800
Speaker 2: I guess for you know, I'm a laper, I'm not

1164
01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 2: a lawyer.

1165
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: But for the average person sitting out there who's like, Okay,

1166
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,479
Speaker 1: well they weaponize the government. They did all these terrible things.

1167
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 1: We've uncovered it. Thank goodness, the investigation is good. What

1168
01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 1: do you do now, I mean, do people just get

1169
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,960
Speaker 1: away with this and then when Democrats take over the

1170
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:22,160
Speaker 1: same people come back or how do you how do

1171
01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 1: you punish them and how do you keep them from

1172
01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:24,240
Speaker 1: doing it again?

1173
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 12: Well? I think number one, of course, is just full transparency.

1174
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:31,000
Speaker 12: I think we need to look at every document, every subpoena,

1175
01:01:31,880 --> 01:01:34,320
Speaker 12: every every internal mimmo that was going on, and make

1176
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:37,440
Speaker 12: sure the American people know exactly what happened. And then

1177
01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 12: then the accountability. You know, I think FBI Director Bettel

1178
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 12: has already started that accountability process. He disbanded the unit

1179
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:46,360
Speaker 12: that was in charge of this. But we need to

1180
01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:49,800
Speaker 12: go through the cover up right and figure out, you know,

1181
01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,080
Speaker 12: who who ordered it, how high did it go? You know,

1182
01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 12: think back again to Watergate. That's something I lived lived

1183
01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,200
Speaker 12: through and I think, but will the national media cover

1184
01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:01,960
Speaker 12: this story and expose it was this weaponization of government?

1185
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 12: You know, Scott, one of the things I talked about

1186
01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:08,160
Speaker 12: a lot is projection. What the Democrats accused Donald Trump

1187
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 12: of is what they're doing. You know they said Donald

1188
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 12: Trump weaponized government. Well here's a clear example then weaponizing government.

1189
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 12: They they'll say that Donald Trump is the threat to democracy.

1190
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 12: Well they're the threat to democracy. But it's real hard

1191
01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:22,960
Speaker 12: to throw anybody in jail over this. So that's what

1192
01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:24,800
Speaker 12: people back home would love to see, is how do

1193
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:27,000
Speaker 12: we throw people in jail? And I don't think we

1194
01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:29,440
Speaker 12: ever get to that point again. I'm the country doctor,

1195
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 12: I'm not a lawyer, but I don't know how we

1196
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:32,520
Speaker 12: throw anybody in jail over this.

1197
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:35,880
Speaker 2: Well, we'll keep watching. I do agree with you.

1198
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,720
Speaker 1: Transparency here is key because the people who did this,

1199
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:41,440
Speaker 1: if you don't have transparency, they'll think they can come

1200
01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:43,360
Speaker 1: back and do it again. So maybe at a minimum

1201
01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:46,320
Speaker 1: of shining a bright light on all these bad actors

1202
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:48,720
Speaker 1: will prevent them from being able to come back and

1203
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,080
Speaker 1: do it again. I want to get one more topic

1204
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 1: in here, Senator, and that is the topic of Operation

1205
01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:57,240
Speaker 1: Epic Fury, our war against Iran. Caroline levi Att, the

1206
01:02:57,280 --> 01:02:59,400
Speaker 1: White House Press Secretary, was at the podium just a

1207
01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:00,160
Speaker 1: little while go.

1208
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:01,920
Speaker 2: I want to hear from her and get your reaction.

1209
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:03,880
Speaker 2: Here's Levitt cut twenty five.

1210
01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:06,960
Speaker 16: There does not need to be any more death and destruction.

1211
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:09,720
Speaker 16: But if a ron fails to accept the reality of

1212
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:12,480
Speaker 16: the current moment, if they fail to understand that they

1213
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 16: have been defeated militarily and will continue to be, President

1214
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,000
Speaker 16: Trump will ensure they are hit harder than they have

1215
01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 16: ever been hit before.

1216
01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:24,280
Speaker 2: Senator Marshall, where do you think we are in this?

1217
01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:26,840
Speaker 1: I've heard Speaker Johnson say he thinks we've basically met

1218
01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:29,720
Speaker 1: our objectives here. The President says we've won, and I

1219
01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:33,440
Speaker 1: think that's indisputable. We have defeated their military. There's talks

1220
01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,080
Speaker 1: that maybe there's some diplomacy going on behind the scenes.

1221
01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 1: What's your gut tell you where we are in the

1222
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:40,400
Speaker 1: lifespan of this military operation.

1223
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 12: Well, I think we're ninety percent there, Scott. I think

1224
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:45,960
Speaker 12: that we've accomplished ninety percent of what we set out

1225
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 12: to do. Remember, the President very clearly, don't let the

1226
01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:51,280
Speaker 12: legacy media fuel you. President barely clearly said poor jeps,

1227
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,320
Speaker 12: US destroy their missiles, their nukes, their navy, as well

1228
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 12: as their ability to fund an armed terrace in the future.

1229
01:03:57,400 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 12: So I think we're very much at ninety percent of

1230
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,320
Speaker 12: those But the last ten percent may be harder than

1231
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:06,520
Speaker 12: the first ninety percent. I feel like, look, regardless of

1232
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:09,160
Speaker 12: how you felt about getting here, we need to keep

1233
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 12: our foot on their neck and finish the job. They

1234
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:15,720
Speaker 12: are a wounded animal. They're going to do crazy things

1235
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:19,360
Speaker 12: as well. Look, I don't want boots on the ground.

1236
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:21,200
Speaker 12: I don't know if you know much of my bioscott,

1237
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,240
Speaker 12: but but I served in the military. My dad, my

1238
01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 12: brother served, my son as serving and I hate war.

1239
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:29,400
Speaker 12: I hate war. President eisenhowerst is only a soldier who

1240
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:32,400
Speaker 12: lived at canned with all his brutality and futility. So

1241
01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:35,640
Speaker 12: I want this war to come to a very quick conclusion.

1242
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:37,720
Speaker 12: But I also want to make sure that my family

1243
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 12: and future generations of Americans are safe as well. And

1244
01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 12: I don't think we're there yet. And so if they

1245
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:47,200
Speaker 12: have a regime change this week, then I think that

1246
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 12: we're getting closer to it. But we need to put

1247
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:51,800
Speaker 12: the pressure on him, and maybe that's not what America

1248
01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,160
Speaker 12: wants to hear. I don't want boots on the ground.

1249
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,440
Speaker 12: We need to keep the pressure on them until they

1250
01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 12: give up. And right now I think they're just lying

1251
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:01,840
Speaker 12: to us. I think that's all that's going on.

1252
01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:04,160
Speaker 2: Well, I agree with you on that.

1253
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 1: This regime and the people who are left there, I mean,

1254
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:09,240
Speaker 1: they're known liars. Back in February, they were telling us

1255
01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:11,200
Speaker 1: they had no missiles that could go very far. We

1256
01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:13,480
Speaker 1: found out this weekend. No, they have missiles that can

1257
01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 1: go at least four thousand kilometers. They could reach most

1258
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 1: of Europe for that, and you know, throw a nuclear

1259
01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:20,400
Speaker 1: warhead on there, and all of a sudden you can

1260
01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 1: see why the President was right in saying, in fact,

1261
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 1: this regime is and was an imminent threat to Western civilization.

1262
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,000
Speaker 1: Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas, thanks for your time today.

1263
01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:32,280
Speaker 1: I know you've got to get off to the Senate

1264
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,560
Speaker 1: floor because this Homeland Security vote is pretty soon.

1265
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:37,160
Speaker 2: We wish you luck with that and we'll have you

1266
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,600
Speaker 2: back soon. Thank you, sir, So thank you, Scott. I

1267
01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 2: have a great day, all right.

1268
01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 1: Roger Marshall of Kansas stopping by to give us his perspective.

1269
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,120
Speaker 1: I do want to put in a word for our

1270
01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:50,360
Speaker 1: friends at the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

1271
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 2: We were just talking about the war in the Middle East.

1272
01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:57,080
Speaker 1: It's called Operation Epic Fury, Operation Roaring Lion in Israel,

1273
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:00,520
Speaker 1: and because of it, the red alert sirens continue to

1274
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:02,720
Speaker 1: fill the air in the Holy Land. They go off,

1275
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,480
Speaker 1: and these folks that live in Israel have about fifteen

1276
01:06:05,560 --> 01:06:08,400
Speaker 1: seconds to make it to a bomb shelter. It's times

1277
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 1: like these that the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews

1278
01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 1: is on the ground and they are preparing large scale

1279
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:18,560
Speaker 1: distributions of life saving food and first aid and emergency

1280
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,760
Speaker 1: essentials for the most vulnerable population in Israel. We're talking

1281
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:26,360
Speaker 1: about the sick, the elderly, children and families. They depend

1282
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:30,040
Speaker 1: on the Fellowship especially now, and the people of the

1283
01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:34,040
Speaker 1: Holy Land depend on your prayerful support. So I'm asking

1284
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,680
Speaker 1: you to join Christians and Jews around the world in

1285
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:40,400
Speaker 1: praying for the protection of Israel her people, and also

1286
01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:44,480
Speaker 1: for the brave American and Israeli troops who are putting

1287
01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 1: their lives on the line in this fight for freedom

1288
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:50,080
Speaker 1: and in this fight, this righteous fight to defeat the

1289
01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:55,560
Speaker 1: Iranian terror regime. Stand with Israel today. Visit support IFCJ

1292
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:04,320
Speaker 1: Let's talk AI Data centers. Interesting developments today. Right after

1293
01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:05,560
Speaker 1: this straight.

1294
01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:08,840
Speaker 10: Tis without the bluster. When you positively need the truth,

1295
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:10,280
Speaker 10: this is where you come.

1296
01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:11,919
Speaker 2: The Scotch Jenning Show.

1297
01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:15,760
Speaker 1: All Right, breaking news to round out the Scotch Jennings

1298
01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:22,400
Speaker 1: Show today, Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocassio Cortes,

1299
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:26,960
Speaker 1: in a couple of hours will announce legislation that will

1300
01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:33,080
Speaker 1: pause all new data center construction nationwide until they get

1301
01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:38,600
Speaker 1: certain AI safeguards. This matters because Sanders and AOC are

1302
01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:40,760
Speaker 1: really putting forward what I think is one of the

1303
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:45,040
Speaker 1: most aggressive positions on AI and data centers and the

1304
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 1: surrounding issues. A lot of people are saying what they

1305
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:52,240
Speaker 1: are doing is a gift to China. Not surprising coming

1306
01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:55,000
Speaker 1: from the socialist wing of the Democratic Party. I suppose

1307
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,440
Speaker 1: joining us to discuss this breaking news is the executive

1308
01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 1: director of Build American AI. His name is Nathan Lemer.

1309
01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about this possible legislation that's coming out. Nathan,

1310
01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:09,680
Speaker 1: thanks for joining us here on the Scott Chenning Show.

1311
01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:13,640
Speaker 1: You're part of an organization that is working to educate

1312
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 1: the American people about why it's important to win the

1313
01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:20,280
Speaker 1: race against China to build AI infrastructure. Now you have

1314
01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:22,640
Speaker 1: Sanders and AOC trying to put a stop to it.

1315
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,400
Speaker 1: When you heard this today, what was your reaction.

1316
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:29,560
Speaker 17: It's ludicrous and it's you know, typical type of overreaction

1317
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:33,439
Speaker 17: from members like Senator Sanders and AOC. The reality is

1318
01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:36,680
Speaker 17: data centers are an important part of increasing capacity so

1319
01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:39,599
Speaker 17: that we can have more Americans participate in the digital economy.

1320
01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 17: That's better schooling, that's better jobs, it's better opportunity. And

1321
01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 17: when you cut their ability to build new data centers,

1322
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:49,439
Speaker 17: it hinders the ability of local communities to participate in

1323
01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:50,599
Speaker 17: this burgeoning economy.

1324
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: So, based on your knowledge of what they're doing and

1325
01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,599
Speaker 1: sort of the political environment in Washington, d C. Are

1326
01:08:57,680 --> 01:08:59,640
Speaker 1: they out on a limb on this thing, or do

1327
01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:01,839
Speaker 1: you think they're going to get support from other members

1328
01:09:01,920 --> 01:09:04,160
Speaker 1: to try to move this moratorium forward.

1329
01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:08,120
Speaker 17: I think there's a handful of activists who have generated

1330
01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:11,600
Speaker 17: some engagement among certain progressive members of Congress, but I

1331
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:14,320
Speaker 17: think they're in the minority. The reality is in communities

1332
01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:18,880
Speaker 17: like Loudon County, we've seen taxes go down because of it.

1333
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:21,880
Speaker 17: It's actually covering the taxes for regular Americans. We're seeing

1334
01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:26,000
Speaker 17: jobs start up, We're seeing construction opportunities, trade skills, all

1335
01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:28,719
Speaker 17: kind of flourishing around the country. And when that goes away,

1336
01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:32,000
Speaker 17: you're hindering the ability of people to participate and engage

1337
01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:33,519
Speaker 17: and grow and build, which is what we need to

1338
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:35,599
Speaker 17: do to compete with China as well as to build

1339
01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:38,320
Speaker 17: up our own future AI ecosystem.

1340
01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:39,680
Speaker 2: We've had some.

1341
01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:43,000
Speaker 1: Political leaders Nathan on the Scott Jenny Show who have

1342
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:46,519
Speaker 1: really touted their efforts to recruit these data centers.

1343
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:49,720
Speaker 2: The governor of West Virginia the other day, he was

1344
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:50,519
Speaker 2: really proud of it.

1345
01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:52,360
Speaker 1: And then we've had some other stories on the show

1346
01:09:52,400 --> 01:09:54,479
Speaker 1: where we've seen local people who have just said, I

1347
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:57,120
Speaker 1: don't want this in my backyard. I guess the question

1348
01:09:57,240 --> 01:10:00,439
Speaker 1: I have is has the political class that I think

1349
01:10:00,560 --> 01:10:03,960
Speaker 1: supports and inherently understands the importance of this, have they

1350
01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:07,640
Speaker 1: done a good enough job so far educating their constituents

1351
01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:10,799
Speaker 1: in the public about why this is good, why ultimately

1352
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:12,960
Speaker 1: we need to do this, how it can be helpful.

1353
01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:16,559
Speaker 1: Or I guess is there more communications in pr required here.

1354
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:18,560
Speaker 1: I feel sometimes like there's a little bit of a

1355
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 1: disconnect between the politicians who are in on it and

1356
01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 1: they think it's great and the people on the ground

1357
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 1: who are going to have these things in their counties

1358
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:26,120
Speaker 1: and communities.

1359
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:29,479
Speaker 17: I think that is an important point. It's important to

1360
01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:32,080
Speaker 17: cut through the noise and explain separate fact from fiction,

1361
01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:35,080
Speaker 17: and the reality is these data centers are the tip

1362
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,760
Speaker 17: of the iceberg. When it comes to opportunity. It's not

1363
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:40,519
Speaker 17: just the construction jobs. It's not just the tradesmen, it's

1364
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:42,599
Speaker 17: not the guys who just build them. It's actually also

1365
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,760
Speaker 17: the other community, other jobs that come around to it

1366
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:48,120
Speaker 17: because of it's basically a factory coming to your talent.

1367
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 17: It's creating more capacity and more opportunity in order for

1368
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,840
Speaker 17: the US to compete, me to reindustrialize the United States,

1369
01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:55,840
Speaker 17: and the best way of doing that is to enable

1370
01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 17: opportunities in communities, not just Silicon Valley, but in areas

1371
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:02,559
Speaker 17: like Kentucky or Ohio or Michigan. And the only way

1372
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:04,719
Speaker 17: to do that is to have the capacity to actually

1373
01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:08,000
Speaker 17: use the Internet accordingly and to be able to compete

1374
01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:09,120
Speaker 17: globally with China.

1375
01:11:10,280 --> 01:11:12,040
Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot of issues at play here, and

1376
01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:14,439
Speaker 1: a lot of people have questions, but it seems to

1377
01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:17,560
Speaker 1: me that if you believe the United States needs to

1378
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:20,920
Speaker 1: control this and needs to be the world leader in AI,

1379
01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:23,320
Speaker 1: we got to have the data center capacity to do it.

1380
01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:27,120
Speaker 1: And now you've got Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez

1381
01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:29,439
Speaker 1: coming along, trying to put a moratorium on it. This

1382
01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:32,000
Speaker 1: would do nothing but set us back. I mean, the

1383
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:34,880
Speaker 1: Chinese aren't stopping. They are full speed ahead on this,

1384
01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:37,200
Speaker 1: and I assume you would agree with that. We can't

1385
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:39,400
Speaker 1: let them run this for the rest of the world.

1386
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:40,960
Speaker 1: I give you the last word of twenty seconds.

1387
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,160
Speaker 2: That's exactly right. They have started the race and we

1388
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:45,840
Speaker 2: need to catch up.

1389
01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:47,240
Speaker 17: And the only way to do that is to build,

1390
01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:48,920
Speaker 17: and we need to do it across the country so

1391
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:51,160
Speaker 17: that every community can participate and be part of this

1392
01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:52,120
Speaker 17: burgeoning economy.

1393
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:54,560
Speaker 1: Thanks a good for having me, Nathan, Yeah, thanks for

1394
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 1: being here. Nathan Lemur. That's the voice you've been hearing.

1395
01:11:57,240 --> 01:12:00,320
Speaker 1: He is the executive director of an organization called Build

1396
01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:03,840
Speaker 1: American AI. And we're going to track this Sanders and

1397
01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:07,120
Speaker 1: aoc announcement this afternoon and talk about it later this

1398
01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:10,120
Speaker 1: week on the show. But again, if you're tracking this stuff,

1399
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of information swirling, but it

1400
01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 1: seems to me stopping in our track so that China

1401
01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:17,599
Speaker 1: can get ahead of us, Well, that is just silly.

1402
01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:17,960
Speaker 2: Nathan.

1403
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:20,639
Speaker 1: Thanks for coming on the show and everybody around the country.

1404
01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:23,599

1405
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 1: news today. We'll get into it tomorrow. We'll track this

1406
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,360
Speaker 1: vote in the Senate on the Homeland Security but it

1407
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:31,160
Speaker 1: seemed like Democrats want to keep it shut down and

1408
01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:34,160
Speaker 1: keep you in misery. I hope not, but that's what

1409
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,960
Speaker 1: we're expecting. More tomorrow, Scott's out. We'll be in Florida.
