Congressman Barry 18 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: Moore from Alabama is here, and we learn from a 19 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: military expert about the process of a dignified remains transfer, 20 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: which we saw this weekend when six American heroes came 21 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 1: home from the Middle East. It is Monday, March to ninth. 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,639 Speaker 1: This is common sense for the American people. I'm Scott 23 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: Jennings and I'm broadcasting live from New York City and 24 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: we'll see you back tonight at ten o'clock at the 25 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: Debating Table with Abby and Friends on CNN. Topping the 26 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: news today, it seems to me that we are living 27 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: in a country that is whistling past the graveyard when 28 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: it comes to our safety. In New York City this 29 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: weekend to radical Islamic jihadis through IEDs improvised explosive devices 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: into a crowd of protesters in front of the Mayor's mansion. 31 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: They were intending to kill those protesters and maim those 32 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: people and the assembled police officers, but you wouldn't know 33 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: it from reading the statements of various democratic politicians or 34 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: the write ups from mainstream media outlets. Mayor Mamdani released 35 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: a statement Sunday intended to make you believe that islamophobes 36 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: had done it. Several news outlets wrote wildly inaccurate headlines 37 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: and then refused to print the names of the Islamic 38 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: terrorists in their stories. The collusion between Democrats and media 39 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: to keep you from the truth continues, and of course 40 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: these are not trivial matters. Both of those institutions are 41 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: doing their best to also ignore or obfuscate another serious 42 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: problem that the Department of Homeland Security remained shut down 43 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: while all of this is going on. 44 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: Oh that's right. 45 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: Just days ago we had a terrorist attack in Austin, 46 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: Texas where a radical Islamic terrorists killed two people and 47 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: injured several others. And now this weekend in New York City, 48 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: another attack, and yet Democrats refused to vote to open 49 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: the Department of Homeland Security. If ever there was a 50 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: for a Homeland Security department, now would be it. But 51 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: I guess Democrats simply don't believe that. But the American 52 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: people are starting to notice because airports are starting to 53 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:16,119 Speaker 1: crack under the pressure of TSA agents not receiving their paychecks. 54 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: At Hobby Airport in Houston this weekend, passengers waited in 55 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: line for hours, and now that airport is asking you 56 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 1: to arrive five hours five hours before your flight. In Atlanta, 57 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: at Hartsfield Busy Airport, same story, this passenger told it 58 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: like it is in cut number two. 59 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 2: It's the longest I've ever seen it. 60 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 4: I phoned into Atlanta several times and this is by 61 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 4: far the longest I've ever seen in my life. 62 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: Several other airports are reporting longer lines as TSA's staffing 63 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: shortages become more acute as these agents are once again 64 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: asked to work without pay by Democrats who are voting 65 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: over and over to keep their agency shut down. Here 66 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: is one of those agents in cut number one. 67 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 5: We're fed up. We had enough. That's this is the 68 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 5: TURCH shutdown in a matter of six months. 69 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 6: Jovon Petkovich has been with TSA for ten plus years 70 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 6: and is based out of Phoenix. 71 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 5: He calls the shutdown a huge economic roller coaster. 72 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 6: You sent Atlanta passengers? How many delays is it? You 73 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 6: know how many flight attendants are being impacted by this 74 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 6: because of their flights either being delayed or being canceled out. 75 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 5: That means they're not getting paid. 76 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 6: If you're not sitting behind the controls as a pilot, 77 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 6: you're not getting the paycheck the trumpet. 78 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: Jovon Pittkovich is a TSA agent who works in Phoenix, 79 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: speaking with a local Fox affiliate there. 80 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: The same thing happened last fall. 81 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: Democrats treated TSA agents like garbage as they shut down 82 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: the government for forty three days. So how long will 83 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: this DHS shut down last, Well, your guess is as 84 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: good as mine. Democratic leader Hakim Jeffrey continues to blame Republicans, 85 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: but anyone can look at the vote tallies here. It's 86 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: Republicans who are voting to open DHS while Democrats are 87 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 1: voting in mass to keep it closed. What Democrats are 88 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: protesting here with these votes is ICE, the agency that 89 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: enforces federal immigration laws. And given that illegal immigrants are 90 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: now the principal constituent group of the Democratic Party, I 91 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't hold my breath for a quick solution. 92 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: So if you're stuck in. 93 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: An airport line today, just remember the Democratic Party cares 94 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: more about keeping illegal aliens in America than it cares 95 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: about you standing in line for the next five hours. 96 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: The dumb part is ICE is already funded until twenty 97 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: twenty nine. So the current Democratic tantrum does nothing to 98 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: stop ICE from doing its job, but it does stop 99 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: the TSA from doing theirs, and it keeps our homeland 100 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: security apparatus closed as we increased terror attacks from radical 101 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: Islamic jihadis in multiple American cities. Oh, the names of 102 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: the two radical Islamic terrorists in New York City, Emir 103 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: Balat and Ibrahim Nick. They told police they were inspired 104 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 1: by Isis. Both lived in Pennsylvania, they drove up to 105 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: New York City. Authorities are searching their homes. They are 106 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: now in federal custody, and in breaking news just into 107 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: the show, Attorney General Pam Bondi says they are both 108 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: being indicted by the FEDS. Understand something, real, folks. The 109 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: mayor of New York City, Mamdani, simply cannot tell you 110 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: the truth about radical Islamic terrorism because he apparently believes 111 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: it is a justifiable means to an end, that it 112 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: fits with his world view that the oppressed have come 113 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: to balance the cosmic scales against their oppressors. And his wife, 114 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: Rama Duaji, made clear her views on it too, who 115 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: as dozens of posts have come to light wherein she 116 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: was liking and cheering on the terrorists who committed the 117 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: atrocities of October the seventh. I encourage you to read 118 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,119 Speaker 1: Olivia rein Gold's reporting in the Free Press about this matter. 119 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: Oh and before you chastise me about taking a politician's 120 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: wife to task, save it, I sat through too many 121 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: panels and too much handwringing over justice. 122 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 2: Sam Alito's wife hanging up a. 123 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: George Washington flag on their vacation porch to let mom 124 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: Donnie's October the seventh loving spouse off the hook. 125 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 2: These are their rules. I'm just gonna play by them. 126 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: So inside Gracie Mansion today, two people who excuse or. 127 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 2: Worse cheer on radical Islamic terrorists. 128 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: After October the seventh, New York City's first lady liked 129 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: posts calling the atrocities quote a mass rape hoax. She 130 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: literally cheered on the people murdering and raping and killing 131 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: Israelis and Americans. And now the Mamdanis have radical Islamic 132 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: terrorism to deal with in New York City on their watch, 133 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: and the mayor's first instinct was to lie to his 134 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: constituents about it. Wake up, America. Your Department of Homeland 135 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: Security has closed, You are feeling pain in airports across 136 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: the country. You have terrorist attacks occurring in major cities, 137 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: and one of the two major political parties and their 138 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: leaders are choosing to lie to your face about all 139 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: of it. As it unfolds in other news today, the 140 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 1: thing they say never happens has happened again, this time 141 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. Federal government's arrested any illegal immigrant named Mahadi 142 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: Sako for voting in five five presidential elections. He was 143 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: ordered removed from the country in two thousand and yet 144 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: here he is in twenty twenty six, voting in our 145 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: presidential elections, all the while. 146 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: In Zafrill's, Florida. 147 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: Near Tampa, an illegal alien from Guatemala is facing dui 148 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: manslaughter charges after killing a fifty one year old motorcyclist. 149 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: Police say twenty nine year old minor Million Morales tried 150 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: to pass in a no passing zone. He hit an 151 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: oncoming suv, triggered a chain reaction involving two trucks, two motorcycles, 152 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 1: and the suv. The illegal alien had a blood alcohol 153 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: content of zero point one oh six. He did not 154 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: have a valid driver's license. It's another person who should 155 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: not have been in our country and another American who 156 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: is dead because of it. You're listening to common sense 157 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: for the American people. It's Scott Jennings broadcasting to you 158 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: on Salem. I need to share with you a listener 159 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: story Rod from Texas.

What did Rod do? 163 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: He finally gave relief Factor a try, and within a 164 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: few weeks his pain improved. It is nearly subsided entirely. 165 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: His words were simple. Being pain free is indescribable.

His name is James Tallerico, 201 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: and there appears to be no end at all to 202 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: his extremism and downright nutty views. Last week we reported 203 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 1: to you that he believes there are six genders, not four, 204 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: not five, not seven, but specifically six. Today we're learning 205 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: more about his views on abortion. Remember this is a 206 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: supposed Christian pastor who believes that God sent an angel 207 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: to Mary to ask her if she wanted to have 208 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: an abortion while she was pregnant with Jesus. I know 209 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: it sounds crazy, but here is Tallarico telling that story 210 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: and cut number five. 211 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 7: But I think all this in terms in context of abortion, 212 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:28,479 Speaker 7: because before God comes over Mary and we have the incarnation, 213 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 7: God asks for Mary's consent, which is remarkable. I mean, 214 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 7: go back and read this in Luke. I mean, the 215 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 7: angel comes down and asks Mary if this is something 216 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 7: she wants to do, and she says, if it is 217 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 7: God's will, let it be done, let it be let 218 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 7: it happen. 219 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: This is how committed to abortion on demand that the 220 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: Democrats are. They have put all their hopes and dreams 221 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: into a man under the guise of Christian theology who 222 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: believes God offered Mary an abortion, and he would like 223 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: to offer you one as well. So I guess it 224 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 1: should come as no surprise that Tallerco once sent a 225 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: letter on official Texas State legislative letterhead asking then President 226 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: Joe Biden to transform federal facilities like military bases, post offices, 227 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: and national parks into abortion clinics. 228 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 2: Yes, you heard that right. 229 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: Taller Ico asked Biden to open abortion clinics at post offices, 230 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: national parks, and military bases. Let me read to you 231 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: from the letter dated June twenty fourth, twenty twenty two, 232 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: on behalf of my constituents, I urge you and your 233 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: administration you here is Joe Biden, to consider taking the 234 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: following executive actions to protect the right to an abortion. 235 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: Leasing federal property to abortion clinics on federal lands or 236 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: in federal office, Prohibiting states from imposing restrictions on abortion 237 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: through medication through the Food and Drug Administration, hiring abortion 238 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: providers as federal employees to provide immunity from state lawsuits 239 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: the General Services Administration. Tallerico writes, manages more than eight 240 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: hundred federally owned or leased buildings in Texas alone. Just 241 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: repurposing a small fraction of those spaces can provide critical 242 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: life saving care to people across the state. We'll have 243 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: to quibble with the term life saving, since the purpose 244 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: of an abortion is to kill, literally kill a human life. 245 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: But I ask do we think this is going to 246 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: fly in Texas? A guy who looks like he's up 247 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: past his bedtime fighting to open up an abortion clinic 248 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: in your local post office, at your national park, at 249 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: a military base, and doing it all under the guise 250 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: of well, you know, the Bible says God asked Mary 251 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: if she wanted to have an abortion. I don't think so. 252 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: The Democratic Party has become so divorced from average, regular, 253 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: everyday men and Christians that this tallarrico is what they 254 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: think passes for both. They have no idea whatsoever, none 255 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: what average people, average men, or average Christians think or believe, 256 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: and this is what their primary process crapped out as 257 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: a result. This is what complete and total divorce from 258 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: Middle America actually looks like. And Democrats and their cheerleaders 259 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: in the media are clapping like seals for it, just 260 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: like they did when they saw Tim Walls's flannel shirts. 261 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: Oh gee, whiz, here comes a real man. Well, that 262 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: was when the jazz hands came out and the narrative crumbled. 263 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,119 Speaker 1: Now with tall Rico, this is nothing short of insane, 264 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: galaxy brained extremism wrapped in a theology that is more 265 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: focused on justifying political positions than saving your or anyone 266 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 1: else's soul, and that, friends, I think is bad for Christianity, 267 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: bad for American politics, all at the same time. Not 268 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: too many people can destroy their own credibility in two 269 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:17,719 Speaker 1: professions at once, but Tallerico here has managed to do it. 270 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: Scott Jettings, you're listening to this show on Salem.

They drew him in a 365 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 4: pretty horrible district in California, and I can't help but 366 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 4: wonder if he might be thinking down the road he 367 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 4: may need to run as an independent to maintain his seat. 368 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:40,479 Speaker 5: I don't know. 369 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 4: I was kind of shocked to hear that when you 370 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 4: mentioned it to me before the break, but yeah, it 371 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 4: seems like to me, I think he's trying to plan 372 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 4: to run maybe as an independent, to try to maybe 373 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 4: swing some of the Democrats, because I don't know what 374 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 4: that district went to in California, but the Blue states 375 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 4: are pretty good at making it part on the Republicans 376 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 4: to get elected, and I think that's the battle Kevin's then. 377 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 1: Now, well, if he plans to caucus with the Republicans 378 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 1: for the rest of this Congress, that shouldn't make Speaker 379 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: Johnson and the leadership team's job any harder, although it 380 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: is quite hard already. 381 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 2: Although we'll keep an eye on that. 382 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 1: Other breaking news, as you might have learned, Congressman, or 383 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: might have heard, there was terrorism in New York City 384 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 1: this weekend. We had two radical Islamic terrorists throwing an 385 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: improvised explosive device into a protest in front of the 386 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: mayor's office. Of course, we also had terrorism in Austin, 387 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: Texas just a couple of weeks ago. A radical Islamic 388 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: terrorist killed two people and wounded several others in a 389 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: shooting at a bar late at night on a Saturday night. 390 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: All the while, the Department of Homeland Security remains closed 391 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: because Democrats are voting to keep it closed. Tell us, Congressman, 392 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: is this the height of irresponsibility to have DHS closed 393 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: down while we face this terrorism in the United States? 394 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 4: Absolutely, Scott. I mean the four years with the open 395 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 4: boy their policies that we had under the prime administration, 396 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 4: under Bien and Harris, that you know, we know now 397 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 4: for sure that there were at least three hundred and 398 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 4: thirty maybe a few more non terrorists that came across 399 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 4: that border. And that's the one that we know about. 400 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 4: And so we have those Muslim terrorsts, those people that 401 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 4: are on the watch list in this country. And for 402 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 4: the Democrats to start playing politics with public safety, and 403 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 4: it's all over this Minneapolis thing and the job that 404 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 4: they're trying to do to clean up the fraud up 405 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 4: there that the Dems are pitching a fit and putting 406 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 4: American people's safety. They're putting in politics above the American 407 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 4: people's safety, and so yes, that's well, then of course 408 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 4: we had that. Don't forget. We had the individual on 409 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 4: the flight going into Florida from Nashville this weekend that 410 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 4: jumped up and you know, he held ogbar all os 411 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 4: bar and then one of the guys tackled him on 412 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 4: the plane. So we have some people in this country 413 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 4: with the things that are going on, and I ran 414 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 4: right now with the open borders, we had the power. 415 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 4: Four years of this administration certainly put American people at 416 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 4: risk by not funding DHS. 417 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: Congressmen, we're starting to get reports from numerous airports across 418 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: the country that the shutdown at DHS, which is where 419 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 1: the TSA is located the Transportation Safety Administration, is affecting 420 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: their operations. We had lines up to five hours in Houston. 421 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: We've got the longest lines that people have ever seen 422 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,919 Speaker 1: in Atlanta. I'm not sure what airport you used to 423 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 1: go back and forth to Washington from your district, but 424 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: are you concerned that in Alabama we're going to start 425 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: seeing very long lines and major impacts to everyday travelers 426 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: because of the shutdown. 427 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a possibility. I mean, obviously we'd love to 428 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 4: get it resolved. I was hoping we'd have it done 429 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 4: by the first of the month. If we can get 430 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 4: DHS the appropriations process down there, Scott, that'll be all 431 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 4: twelve approach bills. For the first time in three decades 432 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 4: in this nation, we'll be using a regular order to 433 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 4: appropriate funds to run the government. And the Democrats have 434 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 4: picked this time in our history. Right now we've known 435 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 4: of the borders will open. Like I said, we know 436 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 4: that we're at war with a ram where a lot 437 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 4: of these islam As extremists come from. And all of 438 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 4: a sudden, it's like they want to use this to 439 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 4: fight because we found of Minneapolis. It's really pretty it's 440 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 4: pretty telling of the Democrat Party. We could have this 441 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 4: done and find a government no more cit ours, no 442 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 4: more omnibuses at Christmas, the gift that keeps giving if 443 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 4: they would just go ahead and let us through regular order. 444 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 4: And the thing is, these approach bills came through committees, 445 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 4: so they've been vetted, they've been voted on by both 446 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 4: Republicans and Democrats to get to the floor, and now 447 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 4: they're planned politics. 448 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: As Congressman Barrymore from the state of Alabama, also a 449 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: candidate for the United States Senate Congressman Moore, let's talk 450 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: about the war in Iran. We see near air superiority 451 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: for the United States and for our allies Israel. 452 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 2: In this war. 453 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: We've seen Iran pick a new Ayahtola, who is the 454 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: son of the previous Supreme Leader of Iran. Based on 455 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: everything you've heard from the administration, based on your observations, 456 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: how are you feeling about the war efforts so far? 457 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 4: Well, I think it's moved along pretty well the briefs 458 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 4: I've gotten obviously, I think we're moving with a plan 459 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 4: that Hegseth has laid out the Department of Wars executing plan. 460 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 4: Back to the Midnight Hammer, when we took out Iranians 461 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 4: nuclear capabilities in the thirty short hours or so, the 462 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 4: President told him says, do not try to build nuclear Weston, 463 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 4: do not try to get back into a rich uranium, 464 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 4: don't try to get that sixty percent stuff. And they 465 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 4: went right back to doing what we told him. And 466 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 4: he said, the next time, if you do this, it's 467 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 4: going to be harder on you. The next time and 468 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 4: so the President was not one to make out the threats. 469 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 4: And so when he tells you something, and he's a 470 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 4: great negotiator now, but when he asks you to do 471 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 4: something and you continue to push, then he will respond 472 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 4: in the appropriate action. And look, Iran's been at war 473 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 4: for us with us for a long long time. You 474 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 4: go back to Cole, the Barracks and Beyrud, those guys 475 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 4: have been chanting death to America for a long long time. 476 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 4: And certainly the attacks on everyone, and to me, the 477 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 4: slaughtering our thirty two thousand liberty loving Iranians, that to 478 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,959 Speaker 4: me was just the final nail in the coffin, if 479 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 4: you will, followed just proceeded by October seventh attacks on Israel. 480 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 4: I mean, they just they asked for this in some 481 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 4: kind of way. But they've been after us for a 482 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 4: long time. They've been at will with us for a while. 483 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 4: And I think what we're doing now excuting a plan 484 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 4: shows that the President is serious and that we won't 485 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 4: peace in that region and we're not going to tolerate 486 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,679 Speaker 4: terrorists and these proxy wars that they've been funding with 487 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 4: Maas and has Belah, those sort of things you just 488 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 4: can't do on this president's watch, and I'm thankful for 489 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 4: the leadership be show Congressman. 490 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: You said on the Agriculture Committee, and I believe last 491 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: week the committee advanced the Farm Bill, which is important 492 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: to a lot of people in rural and middle America. 493 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: We haven't passed a farm bill in this country, I 494 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: think since twenty eighteen. What do you think can we 495 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: get a farm bill across the line in the House. 496 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: Can we get something passed by this Congress this year? 497 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 5: Yeah? 498 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,479 Speaker 4: I think so, Scott. We had a bill last year, 499 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 4: the Dems killed it in the Senate, but now are 500 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 4: the year before. But now that we have the majority 501 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 4: of the Senate and in the House, I think that 502 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 4: we'll have an opportunity. This farm bill. It does the 503 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 4: things that are much needed to bring food security to 504 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 4: this country. And look the producer who are in a 505 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 4: tough spot. I mean, they've had a tough few years 506 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 4: with inflation. We printed money on the prior administration like 507 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 4: drunk sailors, and that's acually an insult the drunk sailors. 508 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 4: So inflation hit those guys and their commodity based pricing 509 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 4: and so their input costs went up. So we've got 510 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 4: to get these producers something that they can take to 511 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 4: the lenders, to put a seat in the ground for 512 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 4: this food for America, and I think this Farm Bill 513 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 4: does that. It's just Teppen a great direction. Again, it 514 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 4: shows the Republican Party, even one or two vote majority, 515 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 4: we're delivering on the appropriations process. We're delivering on legislation 516 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 4: that's important for our people that we represent. And I'm 517 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 4: honored to be a part of that and glad to 518 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 4: be on ad committee, Glad to see that thing go 519 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 4: to the Senate. 520 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing today Congressman Barry Moore of Alabama 521 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: running for the United States Senate this year. There is 522 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 1: a primary going on. However, you have the support of 523 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: President Trump and Vice President Vince you have the support 524 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: of a number of members of Congress as well. 525 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 2: Why did you decide. 526 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: To jump from the House to the Senate and tell 527 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: us how's the primary unfolding? 528 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 4: Scott, We had to pray pretty hard about it. I've 529 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 4: got the first congressional district in Alabama, which is one 530 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 4: of the most conservative districts in the nation, from the 531 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 4: Gulf of America to the eastern shore of Alabama over 532 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 4: to Georgia, and so really for us, it was a 533 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 4: tough decision. I was the first elected official in the 534 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 4: nation indorse Donald Trump August twenty first, twenty fifteen in 535 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 4: lab People Stadium, and that's been eleven years. And he 536 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 4: asked us to run for Congress. We got in that fight, 537 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 4: and then we coach decided that he wanted to run 538 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 4: for governor of Alabama. He has a ninety five liberty 539 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 4: score and I got a ninety six. I'm remember House 540 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 4: Freedom concass. So all my conservative friends started saying, Barry, 541 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 4: you really need to consider this. So but unt a 542 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 4: lot of prayer. But we've been so pleased We've gotten 543 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 4: Jim Jordan's endorsement. We've been rolling out turning points today 544 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 4: Vice President President and the conservatives in the nation are 545 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 4: with us in this fight. That people in our state 546 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 4: loved Toronald Trump, and so we're pleased with where we're at. 547 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 4: We're going to run through the tape on May nineteenth 548 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 4: and would love to win this thing without a run off, hopefully. 549 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: Congressman, we've got about thirty seconds. I'm interested when you're 550 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: out campaigning and talking to republic voters, what is the 551 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: number one thing or issue that they're bringing up to 552 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: you on the campaign trail. 553 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 4: God, it has to be the Save Act. I'm hearing 554 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 4: so much about securing American elections, and I think that 555 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 4: if you know this, I mean, you've been in this 556 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 4: world for a while, that it polls even with Democrats. 557 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 4: People want American citizens electing American leaders for American priorities, 558 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 4: and so it's kind of an America first thing, but 559 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 4: even the Democrats sport it, and so I think that's 560 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 4: the issue right now. Obviously, the debt and affordability. We're 561 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 4: working on that, trying to get some of this some 562 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 4: of these you know, these inflationary things that were a 563 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 4: result of the prier administration on control with with what 564 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 4: we're doing on policy, but right now the Save Act, affordability, 565 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 4: continue to fight s through the border and get these 566 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 4: criminals out of this country. 567 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: As Congressman Barry Moore of the state of Alabama, he's 568 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: in the House, he's looking to go to the United 569 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 1: States Senate.

The 652 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,919 Speaker 9: dignified transfers of ceremony that has taken place at Dover 653 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 9: since nineteen fifty five. It's where they're processed for mortuary 654 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:30,799 Speaker 9: affairs right there in Delaware. And you know when I 655 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 9: watched that on TV it's it's a national really where 656 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 9: we pause and nationally remember these heroes who gave the 657 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 9: ultimate sacrifice. You know, they voluntarily, you know, put themselves 658 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 9: in harm way, harms way, and they voluntarily said I'll 659 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,479 Speaker 9: sacrifice my comfort for your freedom. And so I pause 660 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 9: to remember them, and I can't help but think of 661 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 9: you know, witnessing you know, and interacting with families who 662 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 9: have lost loved ones, you know, in conflict. It's you know, 663 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 9: I think about the mothers and the daughters, and the 664 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 9: fathers and the parents who have been notified before they 665 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 9: you know, before the remains are transferred to Dover, and 666 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 9: the goal of the Department of Defense, Department of War 667 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 9: is to have those military members remains back to the 668 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 9: families and loved ones as quickly as possible. But I 669 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 9: think about what happens before they're actually here. They you know, 670 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 9: the Casualty Assistance officer has to notify the families and 671 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 9: so uh that is an unimaginable event where you have 672 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 9: to tell a family member that they've lost their their 673 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 9: their dad or their son, uh and or their mother, right, 674 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,720 Speaker 9: And there's a lot of emotions that happen with that. 675 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 9: The family goes from you know, uh, maybe woken up 676 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 9: in the middle of the night to unbelief and then 677 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 9: they're going to ask the casually assistance officer has to 678 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 9: tell them basic based on what they know what happened, 679 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 9: because that's the next thing that happens. There's shocked and 680 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 9: then they ask how to happen. And so these casually 681 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 9: assistants officers or military members that help the family through 682 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 9: that process. 683 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's incredibly emotional. 684 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,879 Speaker 1: When I work for President Bush back in his second term, 685 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 1: I was on a few trips with the President where 686 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: you know, he would routinely meet with the families of 687 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: the fallen from that war at that time, and the 688 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: emotions are just incredible. And at the same time that 689 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 1: they're processing the emotion of having lost someone a son 690 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: or a husband, or an uncle or a brother, they're 691 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: also having to deal with what that means functionally systemically 692 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: with the Department of Defense. These casualty assistance officers tell 693 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 1: us about the critical role that they play making sure 694 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: the families are fully taken care of with what it 695 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: means to have had someone serve, have them die, and 696 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: everything that happens to a family after that. 697 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,959 Speaker 9: Yeah, great question, Scott so they are you know, they're 698 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 9: there on the doorstep initially to inform the families of 699 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 9: the tragic event, and then you know, they walk through 700 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 9: the process from you know, aggrieving with them to really 701 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 9: kind of walking them through the logistics of what happens 702 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 9: next with funeral arrangements, to benefits, you know, to you know, 703 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 9: honor guard for the for the ceremony.

On the issue of the economy, 722 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,760 Speaker 1: the two parties were tied. The same poll incidentally tested 723 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: a number of people and institutions for popularity. The two 724 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: at the bottom were the Democratic Party and Iran Out 725 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: In California, Los Angeles, a man is dead murdered by 726 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 1: a homeless person while the victim was trying to charge 727 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,760 Speaker 1: up his electric vehicle, and now his family is suing 728 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 1: the city for forty million dollars.

But as Newsom gropes for a new 736 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: political identity as he ramps up a presidential campaign, things 737 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: are not going so well that same NBC poll from 738 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 1: above shows just twenty seven percent of Americans have a 739 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: favorable view of him, and already forty five percent have 740 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 1: an unfavorable view. 741 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 2: That is eighteen points underwater. 742 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: Baseball is back, Spring training is in full swing, and 743 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: so is the World Baseball Classic.

That's where you find FEMA. Seems like 764 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 1: we should be doing something about that about now. And 765 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 1: last week the President held a policy meeting on something 766 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: called the Ratepayer Protection Pledge. He pitched this in the 767 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 1: State of the Union. Companies expected to sign onto the 768 00:42:56,400 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: pledge include Google, Microsoft, Meta Oracle, Xai, Open Ai, and Amazon. 769 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: Here to discuss that is our friend, Patrick Hedger, director 770 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 1: of policy for Net Choice. 771 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,760 Speaker 2: Patrick, welcome back to the show. 772 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 1: Tell us what is this ratepayer Protection Pledge and what 773 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: was the President doing with this meeting last week. 774 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, so this is a really exciting thing that the 775 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 10: President is doing. What the rate Prayer Protection Pledge does 776 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 10: is it has those companies that you listed agree to build, 777 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 10: bring or buy new generation resources and cover the cost 778 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 10: of all power delivery infrastructure upgrades required for their data centers. 779 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 10: Right now, data centers are taking a lot of the 780 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:42,320 Speaker 10: blame for really bad electricity policy over the last several decades. 781 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 10: That's coming to a head and increasing rates for a 782 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 10: lot of folks. So this is just a commitment to 783 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 10: what a lot of these companies are already doing, elevating 784 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 10: it at the federal level and ensuring folks know that 785 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 10: data centers are not the culprit behind rising electricity costs. 786 00:43:57,960 --> 00:43:58,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. Patrick. 787 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 1: A Politico that they published last week found that voters' 788 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: top concerns about data centers really revolve around household costs. 789 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: Voters were asked about the drawbacks to building data centers, 790 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: and twenty nine percent said it would mean higher electric bills, 791 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: twenty four percent said it would increase the likelihood of blackouts, 792 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: and twenty three percent said the projects would cost taxpayer money. 793 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: What do everybody, from the President to these companies that 794 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: need the data centers need to do to turn around 795 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,320 Speaker 1: this public perception because it's fairly pervasive out there. 796 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 10: Yeah, and the administration has been working hard on this. 797 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 10: A study that came out of the Lawrence Berkeley National 798 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 10: Labs under Department of Energy looked at what has been 799 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 10: causing the actual increases that we've seen in electricity prices 800 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 10: because in the states with the concentration of the most 801 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 10: data centers Virginia, Arizona, and Texas, those states' electricity rates 802 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 10: have actually increased below the national average of the increase. 803 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 10: So if the data centers were the problem, you would 804 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 10: see major increases in those states. But what's really happening 805 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 10: is we have really bad policies related to the permitting 806 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 10: for new transmission lines, policies shutting down existing coal natural 807 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 10: gas plants as wet and transitioning to new types of plants, 808 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 10: as well as renewable portfolio mandates, so renewable energy mandates 809 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 10: at the state level that are all kind of coming 810 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 10: into play at the same time. Those were found to 811 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 10: be primarily responsible for increasing electricity rates, while data centers 812 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 10: are actually making investments in the grid that are helping 813 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 10: lower rates. 814 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 2: Patrick. 815 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: At the moment, I think about four to six percent 816 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 1: of the energy grid goes to data centers, although there 817 00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,359 Speaker 1: are some reports that by twenty twenty eight this could 818 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: be as high as twelve percent. 819 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 2: How do those numbers strike you? Does that feel accurate 820 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 2: to you? 821 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 1: And should people be worried if one specific thing is 822 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 1: that big a percentage of our energy grid. 823 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 10: I don't think folks should be worried because what's a 824 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 10: big part of this great pair of protection pledge is 825 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 10: the federal government committing to help companies make investments to 826 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 10: make the grid more reliable and put more electrons on 827 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 10: the grid right, generate more power. And what's really exciting 828 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 10: is that these are companies that are sitting on trillions 829 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:15,839 Speaker 10: of dollars in capital that are able to actually make 830 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 10: these investments right, And that's what the rate Payer Protection 831 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 10: Pledge commits them to do, is actually bringing power to 832 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 10: the grid in the future. But if forget AI for 833 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,399 Speaker 10: a second, forget data centers, if we want to bring 834 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 10: back manufacturing to this country, if we want to build 835 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 10: more homes for people, residential ac is still by far 836 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 10: the number one consumer of electricity in this country, So 837 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 10: we need more power for all of the above. 838 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 1: Patrick, I read off a list of large tech companies 839 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 1: and organizations that are signing on to the rate Payer 840 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 1: Protection Pledge. Is there anybody missing from this right now 841 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 1: that you think needs to come in to the fold 842 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: and join the President's effort. 843 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,760 Speaker 10: Yeah, So any company that is building data centers, building 844 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 10: the hyper scale data center, I think would be well 845 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 10: served by committing to this. Again, what the President is 846 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 10: doing is elevating a lot of what's already happening. What 847 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,400 Speaker 10: is codified in state law and what the companies themselves 848 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 10: have agreed to do, and giving the platform of the 849 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 10: White House to help reassure folks that America winning the 850 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 10: twenty first century, winning the AI race is not going 851 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 10: to come out of their pocketbooks, you. 852 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 2: Know, Patrick. 853 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: At the local level, it strikes me that one of 854 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 1: the biggest political debates, biggest political fights going on in 855 00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 1: this country are over these data centers. There are governors 856 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: and other national policy makers out there that are talking 857 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,280 Speaker 1: up AI and talking up the need for data centers, 858 00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 1: and then at the very very local level, you have 859 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 1: people trying to build them and a lot of local 860 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 1: folks who are turning up to oppose them. Sometimes they 861 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 1: get built, sometimes they don't. Do you think that national 862 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: political leaders need to give more air cover, if you will, 863 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 1: to some of these very local fights. I mean, ultimately, 864 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:58,319 Speaker 1: if we're going to win the AI race and it's 865 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: going to help ultimately span the American economy, we have 866 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 1: to build these data centers. But there's a lot of 867 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 1: fights going on out there, and they're not all being one. 868 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think any help would be needed at this 869 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 10: because the data centers are so important for not just AI, 870 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 10: but any sort of data processing, web hosting, things like that. 871 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,399 Speaker 10: You want to live in this twenty first century world 872 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,800 Speaker 10: where you have the convenience of everything that's on your phone, 873 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,560 Speaker 10: from your pictures of your kids to your health records, 874 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 10: to being able to access a suite of services, order 875 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 10: an Uber for example, order a package from Amazon. All 876 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,799 Speaker 10: of these things run through a data center. And so 877 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 10: if you don't have the infrastructure that backs up the 878 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:41,200 Speaker 10: web economy, you're going to see that future to China 879 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 10: where they are building these things at a rapid scale, 880 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:46,720 Speaker 10: and they do have companies that can compete with American companies. 881 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing Patrick Hedger of net Choice. These 882 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: are policy guru on tech and AI and data centers. Patrick, 883 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: We expect to hear from you in the future. Thanks 884 00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 1: for joining us. We're going to take a break here 885 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,280 Speaker 1: on the Scott Jetting Show talk about Iran. They picked 886 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:05,040 Speaker 1: a new Ayatola, a new Supreme leader. We'll talk about 887 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 1: that with Janette and Saya from the Foundation for Defensive 888 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: Democracies when we come back. It's common sense for the 889 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 1: American people. I'm Scott Jennings. You're on Salem. 890 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 2: Stay with us. 891 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 5: If the leftist haven't had enough yet. There's more. This 892 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 5: is the Scott Jenning Show. 893 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: Is Monday, March the ninth. Let's check in on what's 894 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 1: going on with Operation Epic Fury. 895 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 2: To chat with us about that. 896 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 1: Jonathan Seyya research channalyst at the Foundation for the Defense 897 00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,720 Speaker 1: of Democracies. He is an expert on the Middle East 898 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,759 Speaker 1: and also on China, and in this case, these two 899 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 1: matters are definitely linked. 900 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,479 Speaker 2: Jonatan, Welcome into the Scott Shenning Show. 901 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 11: Hi, It's great to be with you. 902 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:44,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks for the call today. 903 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:48,359 Speaker 1: And the news today is that the Iranian regime has 904 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 1: announced that Motaba Kamani, who is the son of the 905 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: previous Ayatola, has been chosen rather as the Supreme leader 906 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,800 Speaker 1: of Iran. When you heard that news, are you surprised? 907 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 1: What can you tell us about this new commandee. 908 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 11: I don't think any of us for a surprise, given 909 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 11: that the regime has had no contingency plan except immediate 910 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 11: family of the Supreme Leader. I think it says a 911 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 11: lot about their capabilities that they have to opt out 912 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:19,399 Speaker 11: for a hereditary succession. Now it tells us that this 913 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,359 Speaker 11: new guy has bring ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard cord, 914 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 11: the main ideological entity that has been leading this war. 915 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:29,879 Speaker 11: It's going to tell us that Tehran is choosing to 916 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 11: escalate instead of a signaling compromise to the United States. 917 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 1: Okay, so Americans have been watching the US military and 918 00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:45,319 Speaker 1: the Israeli military absolutely pound Iranian positions for over a week. 919 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:45,640 Speaker 2: Now. 920 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 1: You know, we've taken out government facilities. We bombed the 921 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 1: building where the clerics were meeting. You know, we were 922 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 1: said to have taken out the bunker that was underneath 923 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 1: the iatola's offices, the secure bunker. They thought there were 924 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 1: some regime officials down there. In your opinion, how much 925 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,959 Speaker 1: disarray is there in the Iranian government? Is this thing 926 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:09,319 Speaker 1: teetering on the brink of collapse? Are they stronger than 927 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: we think? Kind of give us an idea, you know, 928 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,720 Speaker 1: after a week of war, where you think they stand 929 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 1: in terms of sort of internal stability. 930 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 11: Well, when it comes to their military capabilities, I don't 931 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 11: think we, by any means overestimated that. I think you're 932 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,840 Speaker 11: talking about a very fragile regime that only had missiles, 933 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,359 Speaker 11: had no air force, had no naval force. So that's 934 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:34,760 Speaker 11: on one hand, but when it comes to their internal apparatus. Listen, 935 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 11: this is a regime that has more than one figurehead. 936 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:41,080 Speaker 11: They have parallel institutions. So if you want to talk 937 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 11: about the regime collapse of this context, it's not just 938 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 11: taking it about taking out the command structure, which we've 939 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 11: done a great job at by the way, as you 940 00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 11: know that we've taken out every senior person there is, 941 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,439 Speaker 11: But it's really about coming down to the mid level 942 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 11: of law level people. You know, these targeted assassinations really 943 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:58,879 Speaker 11: need to go on and hire in numbers because we've 944 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,839 Speaker 11: taken out the infrastructure with the personnel remain and that's 945 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:03,319 Speaker 11: going to be the next phase of the war. 946 00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 1: The President Jonathan has repeatedly said he wants the people 947 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 1: of Iran to rise up and take back their country. 948 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 1: Is there any evidence that that is happening? Before the war, 949 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 1: we saw protesters in the streets by the thousands. We 950 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:20,400 Speaker 1: also saw the regimes slaughter people by the tens of thousands. 951 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,879 Speaker 1: Where do you think that stands now? Is there going 952 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:27,239 Speaker 1: to be a popular uprising in Iran while they have 953 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 1: the air cover to do it? 954 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:31,880 Speaker 11: Without a doubt, there will be, But we need to 955 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:35,239 Speaker 11: specify what the president said. The President told the Iranians 956 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 11: to stand by. He said, once the bombing stops, it'll 957 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 11: create an opportunity for them to rise up. But we're 958 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 11: not at that point yet. He's repeated it a couple 959 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,360 Speaker 11: of times now. The opposition leader of the Cronference, Patlavi, 960 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 11: has also stayed at the same notion that right now 961 00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,880 Speaker 11: it is not safe because the bombing campaign is still extensive. 962 00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 11: But once that is done, and once there's a power vacuum, 963 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,719 Speaker 11: that's when we have to see masses coming out. You 964 00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 11: write to point out January we saw millions there. We 965 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 11: hope to see millions again because it's going to be 966 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 11: a numbers game against these brutal dictators that are going 967 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 11: to open fire on their own. 968 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 2: People talk about the price of oil briefly. 969 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 1: There was some concern last night and this morning about 970 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 1: oil futures. A barrel top to one hundred dollars a barrel. 971 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: It looks to me like just checking it here, it's 972 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,400 Speaker 1: down to about ninety two dollars, so we've had some 973 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 1: drop throughout the day. This, of course, is related to 974 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 1: the fact that the strait of horn Moves is impacted 975 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:30,920 Speaker 1: by these military operations. What's your expectation on oil. The 976 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 1: price of oil, what American consumers can expect over the 977 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:34,560 Speaker 1: next few days. 978 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 11: Well, it's probably going to frustrate up and down. We 979 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,919 Speaker 11: have to remember the war in Ukraine had similar consequences 980 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 11: in the early stages, but as it went on the 981 00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 11: price has calmed down. Now, you're right to point out 982 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 11: the street of horn Mooves because it's of course they 983 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 11: ain't choke hold that most of the energy supplies go through. 984 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 11: But that said, because the running oil itself has been 985 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 11: sanctioned for so long, the absence of the running oil 986 00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:59,919 Speaker 11: is not going to be something new. Therefore, the shock 987 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,600 Speaker 11: the market is experiencing right now is because of the war, 988 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 11: and it's not because of a limit on supply. So 989 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,319 Speaker 11: I do think it's a temporary measure. I think once 990 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,400 Speaker 11: things calm down a little bit, we've got to have 991 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,479 Speaker 11: to see how the prices are going to drop. But again, 992 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 11: it's nothing new. This something to be expected. If anything, 993 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,360 Speaker 11: it took too long for the prices to skyrocket. 994 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:23,360 Speaker 1: All right, that voice you're hearing, Jonathan say, research analyst 995 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 1: at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, expert on the 996 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,920 Speaker 1: Middle East and China, Jonathan will have you back. I'm 997 00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 1: sure in the near future as the Operation Epic Fury continues. 998 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 1: We're going to take a break when we come back. 999 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:40,320 Speaker 1: National Republican spokesperson, former now kind of a Republican influence 1000 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 1: or interesting person, Elizabeth Pipco is coming by to talk 1001 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:45,560 Speaker 1: news of the day.

Here to discuss it all as my 1011 00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 1: friend Elizabeth Pipco. For the last ten years, Elizabeth has 1012 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 1: been working for Donald Trump, both officially and on campaigns 1013 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 1: and in political apparatus. He was the national spokesperson for 1014 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 1: the Republican National Committee last year and also for the 1015 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:33,359 Speaker 1: Trump campaign. Elizabeth, Welcome into the Scott Jennings Show. 1016 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 2: Glad to have you here today. 1017 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:36,279 Speaker 12: Thanks for having me. 1018 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, really happy to see you. We've got a lot 1019 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 1: going on. So let's start here a little bit of 1020 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 1: breaking news. I'm seeing video now of Jay Clayton, the 1021 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:50,400 Speaker 1: US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announcing 1022 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 1: federal charges against two guys, Emir Ballot and Ibrahim Kayumi. 1023 00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:58,800 Speaker 2: These are the people. 1024 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 1: Who I think through the improvised explosive devices in front 1025 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 1: of Gracie Mansion this weekend. They said they were inspired 1026 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: by ISIS. It's the second kind of terrorist attack, Elizabeth, 1027 00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 1: I think we've seen in the United States in the 1028 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,800 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. We had one in Austin, Texas, 1029 00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 1: just a couple of weekends ago. Yet the Department of 1030 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 1: Homeland Security remains shut down. What do you make of 1031 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 1: the Democratic position here? We're at war, we have terrorism, 1032 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,959 Speaker 1: but because of their position on immigration, Democrats simply won't 1033 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,760 Speaker 1: open the Department of Homeland Security. 1034 00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 2: Well, it's a. 1035 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:35,800 Speaker 12: Combination of their actual position on immigration and their position 1036 00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 12: on opposing anything that Donald Trump does, which is what 1037 00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 12: we're in. The mess that we're in with our country 1038 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 12: successfully striking one of our greatest threats in the last 1039 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 12: two decades, and most Democrats actually vocalizing their opposition to this, 1040 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,480 Speaker 12: despite claiming for years. This is what they wanted to do, 1041 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:54,320 Speaker 12: This was the correct thing to do. It's also a problem, 1042 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,279 Speaker 12: i'd say for New Yorkers that they have one of 1043 00:56:56,320 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 12: the furthest left Democrats that exist right now in power there. 1044 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:02,560 Speaker 12: If you're in New York City, you are dealing with 1045 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:06,440 Speaker 12: a man who loves socialism and communism and has no 1046 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 12: interest in criticizing Hamas and really criticizing any anything that 1047 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 12: really is an enemy of the United States of America 1048 00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 12: is probably the best way to describe it. That's the 1049 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 12: saddest position. So I'd say it's not just a Democrat problem, 1050 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 12: it's a far left progressive problem that's kind of taken 1051 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 12: over the Democrat Party. And unfortunately I had to leave 1052 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 12: New York a lot of my friends that as well. 1053 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 12: But what's happened to what I think was the greatest 1054 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 12: city on the face of the earth in the last 1055 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 12: few years, but especially the projection that it's going to 1056 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 12: get only worse, i'd say over the next few years 1057 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,720 Speaker 12: of Mondani's rule, I think that's the real real problem 1058 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:40,440 Speaker 12: obviously for Democrat Party, for also for every decent person 1059 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,320 Speaker 12: in our country that's left and doesn't want to see 1060 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 12: this happen. 1061 00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 1: You know, this story of these terrorists in New York 1062 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,520 Speaker 1: City this weekend is incredible. So he had a protest 1063 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 1: going on in front of Gracie Mansion. He had a 1064 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 1: counter protest, and these two radical Islamic Jihatis drive up 1065 00:57:56,320 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 1: from Pennsylvania and they have these improvised explosive devices. I 1066 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:02,840 Speaker 1: think they've found three of them now. But if you 1067 00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 1: look at the initial statements that came out of both 1068 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: Mom Donnie and other Democrats and toss on a lot 1069 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 1: of media outlets, you would have never known the truth 1070 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: of what happened. They worked very hard this weekend to 1071 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:20,800 Speaker 1: make it seem like Islamophobes or Republicans or someone other 1072 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:24,600 Speaker 1: than who did it had actually committed the terrorist act. 1073 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,800 Speaker 1: It is amazing to me that they just can't be 1074 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 1: honest with the American people. We do have radical Islamic 1075 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 1: terrorists in our midst and we have to call it 1076 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 1: out and we have to tell people the truth about it. 1077 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 2: Why won't they, Elizabeth. 1078 00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 12: Well, they can't because it goes against their narrative, right, 1079 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 12: because we've been saying this is a problem for many 1080 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,400 Speaker 12: years now. Obviously, these two kids, I believe one of 1081 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:47,120 Speaker 12: them if not. Both actually pledged their support for ISIS 1082 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:50,160 Speaker 12: as they were being handcuffed. I mean, we know exactly 1083 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 12: what this was. This was not a kid misbehaving, as 1084 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 12: I'm sure they're going to try to claim. This was 1085 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 12: someone who was radicalized online. So one who I believe, 1086 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 12: if I'm not mistaken, actually travel to recently came back 1087 00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 12: and decided he was going to act in the supportive 1088 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:05,800 Speaker 12: ISIS and try to harm people in New York. Thank 1089 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,360 Speaker 12: god those bombs did not go off. But like you said, 1090 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 12: no one even knows that this happened. I have friends 1091 00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:12,240 Speaker 12: in New York who I had to explain this to 1092 00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 12: this morning because they had no idea. They had heard 1093 00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:17,320 Speaker 12: a totally opposite story. They were asking me if I'm 1094 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 12: okay with those on the conservative side coming with bombs 1095 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 12: to protests, and I had to explain that that's the 1096 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 12: opposite of what had happened. Obviously, if you follow the 1097 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 12: mayor as well, he put out a long post today 1098 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,120 Speaker 12: and you would again have no idea what had happened 1099 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,040 Speaker 12: if you read that post. It was blamed on Republicans, 1100 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 12: was blamed on some really prominent conservative media faces in 1101 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 12: New York as well, and most people are going to 1102 00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:40,640 Speaker 12: forget that this ever happened. So I think the problem 1103 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,880 Speaker 12: is really not even the terrorists in our country. It's 1104 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,240 Speaker 12: the democrats. It's the media that want to cover for 1105 00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 12: them and make sure that they come out ahead, even 1106 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:50,040 Speaker 12: if Americans are literally getting hurt in the process. 1107 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:51,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, you use the right word. 1108 00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:55,640 Speaker 1: It's about narratives, and when things happen, they create these narratives. 1109 00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 1: And it's really incredible to me how fast narratives can 1110 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 1: spread on the left. And of course they spread online, 1111 01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 1: and they're very authoritarian in their messaging. They get everybody 1112 01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:06,760 Speaker 1: on the message, and if you get off message, they 1113 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 1: come for you immediately. 1114 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 2: And in this case, I think you're right. 1115 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,120 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people have immediately been convinced 1116 01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 1: that this was some right wing terrorism, when in fact 1117 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 1: it was left wing radical Islamic terrorism. Thank goodness, the 1118 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 1: FEDS have arrested these folks. I'll ask you one more 1119 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:24,000 Speaker 1: question about the mom Dnni situation. Here. I'm going to 1120 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 1: ask you about his wife, the First Lady of New 1121 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:27,960 Speaker 1: York City. 1122 01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:29,160 Speaker 2: There have been. 1123 01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 1: Dozens and dozens and dozens of posts that have been 1124 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 1: discovered online where she was liking posts that were celebrating 1125 01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 1: October the seventh, that massacre that happened in Israel. 1126 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 2: She was calling it a rape hoax online. 1127 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously she was expressing solidarity and jubilee with 1128 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 1: the terrorists and what they had. 1129 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:52,640 Speaker 2: Done on October the seventh. What do you make of this? 1130 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:54,360 Speaker 1: I remember a couple of years ago we had to 1131 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 1: live through the whole frenzy where Samuel Alito's wife had 1132 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:00,760 Speaker 1: hung up a George Washington flag on the front porch 1133 01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:04,280 Speaker 1: and the entire left in media went crazy. Are the 1134 01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:08,320 Speaker 1: mayor's wife's social media interactions here fair game for people 1135 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 1: to talk about? 1136 01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 12: Well, they're one hundred percent fair game. But the problem 1137 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,480 Speaker 12: is that we're pretending that this is a surprise, right. 1138 01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,120 Speaker 12: A bunch of people are not saying that, oh, this 1139 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:18,919 Speaker 12: is not surprising at all. We know that he holds 1140 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 12: the same views. They're instead pretending that he is this 1141 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,160 Speaker 12: innocent man who's married to someone who's completely off limits, 1142 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 12: and that very, very often to these high profile relationships, 1143 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 12: the husband and a wife don't discuss their political beliefs, 1144 01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 12: and they might hold very different values and it's irrelevant 1145 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:34,960 Speaker 12: what she thinks, when in reality, not only is it 1146 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 12: not irrelevant what you think. But I think you and 1147 01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:39,320 Speaker 12: I and how many other people have said that these 1148 01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:41,920 Speaker 12: are his beliefs as well. Mam. Donnie has not really 1149 01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:44,320 Speaker 12: fought the allegations at all over the last few years 1150 01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 12: of campaigning that he does not share the exact same beliefs. 1151 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:48,800 Speaker 12: When I saw this, I was wondering why it was 1152 01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:51,400 Speaker 12: a major story today when I had seen those likes. 1153 01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 12: We'd all discussed this many many months ago, if not 1154 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 12: years ago, at this point. So I think the narrative 1155 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:58,320 Speaker 12: again is the problem. We're wondering if it's off limits 1156 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:00,760 Speaker 12: to discuss her posts, why are we not wondering the 1157 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 12: fact that he literally agrees with everything that you said. 1158 01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 12: He probably has the exact same post that he had 1159 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 12: to hide before running, and we all know these are 1160 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:09,720 Speaker 12: the exact views of the current mayor of New York City. 1161 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 12: I don't really care what his wife believes. 1162 01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:14,000 Speaker 2: That voic you're hearing Elizabeth Pipco. 1163 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 1: She former spokesperson for President Trump and his campaign in 1164 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:21,840 Speaker 1: the Republican National Committee, now a prominent national conservative commentator. Elizabeth, 1165 01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 1: I want to play a clip of our Secretary of State, 1166 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,160 Speaker 1: Marco Ruby. I'm going to play this by the way, 1167 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 1: because I keep going on television with people who keep 1168 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:31,760 Speaker 1: saying things to me like we've never heard the administration 1169 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,280 Speaker 1: say what the rationale for the war in Iran? If 1170 01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:37,800 Speaker 1: we've never heard any explanation about this at all, And 1171 01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,400 Speaker 1: yet I keep hearing Marco Rubio and the President and 1172 01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 1: everyone else say the same thing over and over again. 1173 01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 1: It makes me wonder if we're living on two different planets. 1174 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:46,360 Speaker 1: Let's hear Rubio in cut eleven. 1175 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,120 Speaker 13: The goals of this mission are clear, and it's important 1176 01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 13: to continue to remind the American people of why it 1177 01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 13: is that the greatest military in the history of the 1178 01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:55,800 Speaker 13: world is engaged in this operation. It is to destroy 1179 01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 13: the ability of this regime to launch missiles, both by 1180 01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:03,080 Speaker 13: destroying their missiles and their launchers, destroy the factories that 1181 01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:05,600 Speaker 13: make these missiles, and destroy their navy. 1182 01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:09,880 Speaker 1: All right, pretty clear goals here, And I want to 1183 01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,840 Speaker 1: get your thoughts on, you know, the Democratic talking point 1184 01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:15,440 Speaker 1: that A, this is an unnecessary war and B there 1185 01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:17,560 Speaker 1: are no objectives. And I also want to get your 1186 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:20,360 Speaker 1: views on Rubio. The President says he's the best secretary 1187 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:21,800 Speaker 1: of State we ever had. 1188 01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:22,480 Speaker 2: You agree with that. 1189 01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:25,800 Speaker 12: I do agree with that. I'm a major fan of 1190 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:27,959 Speaker 12: Mark Rubio, and I think he does a brilliant job 1191 01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 12: and has especially these last few weeks when talking about Iran. 1192 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:32,920 Speaker 12: But again we're living on two different worlds, like you 1193 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 12: just said, because Democrats, who used to have some kind 1194 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,640 Speaker 12: of common sense before Donald Trump brand for office and 1195 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 12: destroyed their brains, have also laid out exactly why Iran 1196 01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:43,360 Speaker 12: is an enemy and why this might have to be 1197 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 12: a move to the United States. Makes we all used 1198 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,000 Speaker 12: to agree on this. You shouldn't need MARKA. Rubia to 1199 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 12: explain it because most common sense Americans actually understand that 1200 01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 12: Iran has been not only a threat, but a major 1201 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 12: enemy for decades now that has harmed, tortured, kidnapped, murdered 1202 01:03:56,920 --> 01:04:00,000 Speaker 12: countless American lives. That they cannot have a nuclear weapon, 1203 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 12: they are a threat to the United States. So again 1204 01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,439 Speaker 12: it has nothing to do with Mark Rubio, who, again, 1205 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:06,680 Speaker 12: like you said, if you want to miss the explanations 1206 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 12: from the administration, you can, but they've been put out 1207 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:11,720 Speaker 12: by J. D. Bance, Marc Rubio, Caroline Levitt, Donald Trump, 1208 01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 12: countless others. But again, most Democrats, most Americans four years 1209 01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 12: agreed on this fact and laid out the exact same 1210 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,440 Speaker 12: realities that Mark Rubio is laying out right now. So 1211 01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 12: it is a lie if anyone says to you that 1212 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,760 Speaker 12: this is news to them or doesn't understand exactly why 1213 01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:27,080 Speaker 12: this or these strikes have to be necessary. 1214 01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:31,480 Speaker 1: Elizabeth Pipco is our guest conservative commentator, former spokesperson for 1215 01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 1: President Trump other news. 1216 01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:35,320 Speaker 2: This is just coming out in the last few minutes. 1217 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 1: Prominent sports and cultural commentator, I guess Steven A. Smith 1218 01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 1: has said he's ruling out a White House bid in 1219 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight. In fact, he said he'd back Rubio 1220 01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,440 Speaker 1: over some top Democrats if that were the way it 1221 01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:51,880 Speaker 1: shook out. He said, quote, let me put the presidential 1222 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 1: aspirations to bed. This was on the premiere episode of 1223 01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 1: the Hangout with Sean Hannity podcast. He said, if I 1224 01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:01,640 Speaker 1: have to give up my money, it's not happening. 1225 01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:04,520 Speaker 2: Elizabeth A. Do you take Steven A. Smith at his word? 1226 01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 1: And b do you think Democrats are more likely to 1227 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:10,920 Speaker 1: nominate a politician or are they more likely to go 1228 01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: outside that and nominate someone like Smith who comes from 1229 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 1: outside the party but of course brings a huge following 1230 01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 1: into a campaign. 1231 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:21,640 Speaker 12: You know, I was actually baffled when it was still 1232 01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:23,959 Speaker 12: being talked about quite a bit that he might run 1233 01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:26,400 Speaker 12: for office. I was watching The View, I'm sure everybody's 1234 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:29,320 Speaker 12: favorite show, and they were very, very upset about this. 1235 01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 12: They thought it was absolutely asinine that someone without decades 1236 01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:34,520 Speaker 12: of political experience could go in and believe that they 1237 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:37,480 Speaker 12: were worthy of that nomination and of the Oval office. 1238 01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:40,000 Speaker 12: And I think they're just so so out of touch 1239 01:05:40,040 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 12: with the average American and what people are looking for, 1240 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,720 Speaker 12: what people are attracted to and interested in. I think 1241 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:46,600 Speaker 12: that was the biggest sign for me that they have 1242 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,200 Speaker 12: no idea what wins elections. But no, I don't think 1243 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:51,120 Speaker 12: they would have any chance of nominating someone with the 1244 01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:54,560 Speaker 12: personality somebody who can't be controlled, someone who can't really 1245 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:57,280 Speaker 12: fall along blindly with that narrative, someone who has a 1246 01:05:57,360 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 12: following based on their actual genuine opinions about and isn't 1247 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:03,240 Speaker 12: just another you know, machine that they've built with this 1248 01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:05,960 Speaker 12: Democrat operation for years. So no, I would say, right 1249 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 12: now they're looking at a gap and there's some even 1250 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 12: maybe a Kamala Harris before they would ever risk it all, 1251 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:12,200 Speaker 12: what's the one they can't control, like Stephen A. 1252 01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:13,880 Speaker 2: Well, we couldn't. 1253 01:06:13,920 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 1: We could be so lucky to see Kamala Harris back 1254 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:18,439 Speaker 1: on the back on the national ticket. 1255 01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 2: Elizabeth. 1256 01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 1: One last person I want to ask you about James Tallerico, 1257 01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:25,480 Speaker 1: the Democrat candidate running for Senate in Texas. Let's listen 1258 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:28,800 Speaker 1: to this weird exchange he had on a podcast cut 1259 01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:29,320 Speaker 1: number four. 1260 01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 5: Please something that you love that's not family or friends. 1261 01:06:35,840 --> 01:06:39,080 Speaker 7: I love. I'm just saying this because it's on my mind. 1262 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:43,720 Speaker 7: The trans children who showed up yesterday at the state 1263 01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 7: capitol to advocate for their humanity. They shouldn't have to, 1264 01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 7: but it was an inspiration to watch. 1265 01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 2: Elizabeth. 1266 01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:55,439 Speaker 1: When you get asked to name things that you love, Hey, 1267 01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:57,200 Speaker 1: is that where your mind goes? 1268 01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 2: Be a little creepy, right. 1269 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:02,480 Speaker 12: Extreme, extremely creepy. But I'm going to give him a 1270 01:07:02,480 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 12: little bit more credit than I think many are giving him. 1271 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 12: I think this was planned and he wanted it to 1272 01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:09,600 Speaker 12: go viral again. He wanted conservatives to post about it 1273 01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:11,600 Speaker 12: and to attack him so that he could gain with 1274 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:14,360 Speaker 12: a little bit of support and you know, followers and 1275 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:16,200 Speaker 12: views and recognition because a lot of people in the 1276 01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 12: country still don't know who he is. He's one of 1277 01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:21,680 Speaker 12: the strangest characters I've seen come up from the Democrat side. 1278 01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:24,320 Speaker 12: But just like he played Stephen Colbert and made sure 1279 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,080 Speaker 12: that he beat Jasmine Crockett with you know, the attention 1280 01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:29,720 Speaker 12: he got from that interview that apparently Donald Trump banned 1281 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:32,200 Speaker 12: from anyone ever seeing this was the exact same thing. 1282 01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:34,240 Speaker 12: I think he knows what goes viral. He knows exactly 1283 01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:34,800 Speaker 12: what he's doing. 1284 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:38,160 Speaker 1: Elizabeth Pipco, thanks for joining us on the Scott Jenny Show. 1285 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 2: We'll have you back soon.

They all 1293 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:06,440 Speaker 1: depend on the Fellowship at times like these people in 1294 01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 1: the Holy Land are depending on our prayerful support.

This is the Scott Jenny Show. 1303 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:41,559 Speaker 1: Rounding out the show today with more detailed coverage of 1304 01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:45,880 Speaker 1: Operation Epic Fury, an incredibly successful military campaign so far 1305 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:49,519 Speaker 1: waged by the United States and Israel against the greatest 1306 01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 1: state sponsor of terrorism. 1307 01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:52,679 Speaker 2: In the world. 1308 01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:56,920 Speaker 1: The Iranians were unwilling to conduct faithful negotiations and because 1309 01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:59,559 Speaker 1: of that now they are facing an onslaught from air 1310 01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 1: and see these strikes are strategic not just to cripple 1311 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 1: Iran's nuclear program and to stabilize their military and leadership, 1312 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:13,840 Speaker 1: but also to kneecap one of China's closest partners in 1313 01:09:13,880 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 1: the region. In the Free Press, last week, our next 1314 01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:21,000 Speaker 1: guest wrote an article called the Iran strike is all 1315 01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:25,440 Speaker 1: about China. Let's talk about this connection. This is very fascinating. 1316 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:28,479 Speaker 1: Joining us as the author. Zeneb Rabua, research fellow at 1317 01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:33,920 Speaker 1: the Hudson Institute and founder of it's China Project. 1318 01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:36,599 Speaker 2: Zeneb, thanks for joining us. On the show. 1319 01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 1: Here I read your article fascinating stuff. Please start here 1320 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 1: explain to our listeners the connection between Iran and China 1321 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 1: and why this strategic play by the United States makes 1322 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:48,160 Speaker 1: a lot of sense. 1323 01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:53,160 Speaker 14: Well, thank you very much for having me. Indeed, I 1324 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:57,759 Speaker 14: think that people forget that Iran is really a central 1325 01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:01,400 Speaker 14: pillar of China's strategy in the Melas. When someone thinks 1326 01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:04,439 Speaker 14: about the built and Road corridors, the build and Road 1327 01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:08,520 Speaker 14: initiative of China, the Digital Selle Corode, all these projects 1328 01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:12,680 Speaker 14: they go through Tehran. And on top of that, there 1329 01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:15,920 Speaker 14: is also an oil that they mentioned to it. The 1330 01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:22,760 Speaker 14: Chinese really rely heavily on at least they rely on 1331 01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:26,439 Speaker 14: a bunch of discounts that the Iranians give them. Ninety 1332 01:10:26,479 --> 01:10:29,920 Speaker 14: percent of Iran's oil goes to China. 1333 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:31,040 Speaker 5: It's true that. 1334 01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 14: It's just thirteen percent of China's you know, crude imports, 1335 01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:37,360 Speaker 14: but there are a huge discount that makes that makes 1336 01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:42,040 Speaker 14: it very good for their all, for their own industrial base. 1337 01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 14: And the third thing is that for a very long time, 1338 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:50,599 Speaker 14: Iran was very good for Beijing's diplomatic business in the Gulf. 1339 01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:56,320 Speaker 14: People don't I think they forgot about how Beijing was 1340 01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:59,840 Speaker 14: the one that helped Brocker this deal of normally the 1341 01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 14: in between Saudi Arabia and Iran, and it's how Beijing 1342 01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 14: get closer to Ceudi Arabia, which is a key US 1343 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:09,640 Speaker 14: partner in the region. But now because of all the 1344 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:12,800 Speaker 14: things that are unfolding, well, it seems that China is 1345 01:11:12,840 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 14: actually kind of scrambling. They don't know what you say. 1346 01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:18,640 Speaker 14: Are they against the strikes and their quarter strikes? And 1347 01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:22,760 Speaker 14: so they're taking a very diplomatic it's very China too, 1348 01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:28,000 Speaker 14: it's very pragmatic approach. But they are cuggling because the 1349 01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:32,560 Speaker 14: very purpose for which they blocker that deal, the normalization, 1350 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:37,080 Speaker 14: well they can't really ask Iran to escalate. In fact, 1351 01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:40,679 Speaker 14: Iran has been striking more and more its own neighbors. 1352 01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 2: Zineb. 1353 01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 1: Is it true that Iran uses Chinese made military equipment? 1354 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 1: I'm asking because if it is, and you see what 1355 01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:53,599 Speaker 1: that equipment is able to do against the United States 1356 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:57,320 Speaker 1: and against Israel, China must be looking at this and thinking, oh, dear, 1357 01:11:58,160 --> 01:11:59,719 Speaker 1: we may have wandered into the wrong bar. 1358 01:11:59,760 --> 01:12:02,200 Speaker 2: Here in the Middle East. Tell us about that connection. 1359 01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think I think it's totally true. They did 1360 01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:09,160 Speaker 14: use and did they did buy a lot of equipment, 1361 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:11,680 Speaker 14: but they even more so relied on a lot of 1362 01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 14: chemicals that China provided so that they can make the missiles. 1363 01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:16,880 Speaker 10: A lot of. 1364 01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:22,120 Speaker 14: Those companies that provided the components, they were actually sanctioned 1365 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:25,640 Speaker 14: by the United States UH since the buyer iministration, but 1366 01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:29,720 Speaker 14: even more so during Trump administration, they've been heavily sanctioned UH. 1367 01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:34,040 Speaker 14: Obviously on the radars and other things. Well, they it 1368 01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 14: seems that the Chinese Chinese equipment is just not performing well. 1369 01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:41,200 Speaker 14: A lot of the drones, I mean, we will know 1370 01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:44,280 Speaker 14: more UH in a few in a few days, or 1371 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,879 Speaker 14: maybe in a few weeks and a few years maybe, 1372 01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 14: but the a lot of the drones have been intercepted 1373 01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:53,799 Speaker 14: and and and they've been weakened with a cyber attack 1374 01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 14: by both the Israelis and the United States. So yes, 1375 01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:58,880 Speaker 14: there are a lot of going There's a lot is 1376 01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 14: going on, UH for China. They've been trying to test, 1377 01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 14: to use that as a laboratory test two week in 1378 01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:11,680 Speaker 14: US and Israeli military posture. But I think it's backfiring. 1379 01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:16,040 Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing zaneb Rabua.

Yes, it's about 1386 01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:36,559 Speaker 1: Iran state sponsor of terror, but there's a lot going 1387 01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 1: on with the connections with China, Z ANDEB. 1388 01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:39,679 Speaker 2: We'll have you back as. 1389 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:43,400 Speaker 1: We continue to watch Operation Epic Fury unfold.
