1
00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: The voice of free speech, the truth delivered Common Sense

2
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 1: for the American People.

3
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,800
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Scot Jenning Show. All right, Congress returns

4
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 2: to work on Capitol Hill. Can the Republicans get a

5
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: reconciliation bill together and pass it this summer. We'll get

6
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: a live report from inside the Capitol. Secretary of State

7
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 2: Marco Rubio moves against the International Criminal Court and for

8
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 2: good reason. We'll bring you Rubio's words in just a

9
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 2: few moments. And yes, the home run Derby last night

10
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,239
Speaker 2: in Philadelphia was awesome and I was there. We'll have

11
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 2: some thoughts on Cardinals slugger Jordan Walker, who pulled off

12
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: the most dramatic comeback in Derby history to win the crown.

13
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 3: Today is Tuesday, July the fourteenth.

14
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: We broadcast live from New York City on this day,

15
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five year ago today, broadcasting history was made

16
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 2: when Common Sense for the American People launched right here

17
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: on the Salem Radio Network. One year of coming to

18
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 2: you daily on this radio program. We've had some laughs,

19
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 2: we've had a few sad days, and we have covered

20
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: the world, the nation, and the politics of it all

21
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 2: as honestly as anyone out there, and that is the

22
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 2: hallmark of this show.

23
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 3: I will tell you the truth.

24
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: I of course have my opinions, but never doubt I

25
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: will tell you the truth as I know it to

26
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 2: be at that moment here on this live radio show.

27
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 2: And that is the difference between what we do here

28
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 2: and how a lot of other people choose to conduct

29
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: themselves in a world gone mad with conspiracy, theories, conjecture,

30
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: have truths, made up, narratives and alternative realities. We have

31
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: only the truth to bring you here, and I thank

32
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 2: you sincerely for your attention and your loyalty. Also some

33
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 2: other American history today and composer Woody Guthrie born on

34
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: this day in nineteen twelve. He made music for the

35
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 2: common man, including this song cut eleven.

36
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 4: This land is your land, This land is my land,

37
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 4: from California to the New York Island, from the Redwood

38
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 4: Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters. This land was made

39
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 4: for you and me.

40
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: Speaking of our land, things got a little cheaper in

41
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 2: it last month. New data shows inflation posting biggest one

42
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 2: month dropped since April of twenty twenty, and June prices

43
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: fell zero point four percent from the previous month. The

44
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: annual inflation rate cool to three and a half percent.

45
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 2: Let me repeat, this is the largest inflation decline in

46
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 2: over six years, core inflation coming in at two point

47
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 2: six percent. Four years ago under Biden it was nine

48
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 2: point one percent. Don't let anyone tell you Trump hasn't

49
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 2: solved Biden's inflation crisis. The war for the future of

50
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: Western civilization continues, and the barbarians are inside the gates.

51
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 2: Let me tell you about some shock pulling from Pew Research.

52
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 3: It has landed on our desk here.

53
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 2: Pew Research, reputable organization, Pew has found that forty four

54
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 2: percent of Muslim Americans surveyed said they have a favorable.

55
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: View of Hamas.

56
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 2: Hamas the terrorist organization now HAMAS is officially designated foreign

57
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 2: terrorist group by the US government that murdered civilians, kidnapped hostages,

58
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 2: and openly waged war on Jews and Americans alike, the

59
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: perpetrators of October the seventh. Let me repeat the findings

60
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: for you. Nearly a half of respondents in this survey

61
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 2: express a favorable opinion of a terrorist organization. We have

62
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 2: people in our midst who look favorably upon some of

63
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: the worst terrorists on planet are Earth, who do unspeakable

64
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: things to women and children and others, and who seek

65
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: to impose radical Islamic rule everywhere on the planet. Folks,

66
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 2: consider your vote a weapon in the war to save

67
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: America and to save the West. Speaking of Secretary of

68
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 2: State Marco Rubio has once again struck a blow for

69
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 2: American sovereignty in the face of malignant international organizations that

70
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 2: operate counter to American interests. Rubio is launching an all

71
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 2: out campaign against the International Criminal Court, arguing the ICC

72
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 2: has no legitimate authority over the United States, but continues

73
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: to claim the power to investigate and even prosecute American troops, officials,

74
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: and close allies. Here is Secretary Rubio explaining this important

75
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: effort cut number one.

76
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 5: For two hundred and fifty years, America have governed ourselves

77
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 5: as a free and sovereign people. We choose our own leaders,

78
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 5: we determine our own laws, and when we're accused of

79
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 5: a crime, we stand for judgment before a jury of

80
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 5: our own peers. This is the essential and indispensable feature

81
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 5: of our form of government. It is the foundation of

82
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 5: our shared way of life. But today powerful people and

83
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 5: faraway places want to take that away from us. They

84
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 5: believe that they should be in charge of your laws,

85
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 5: of your country, your life, and they don't care whether

86
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 5: or not you agree. Halfway across the world, there's an

87
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 5: institution that calls itself the International Criminal Court.

88
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: Maybe you've heard of it, maybe you haven't.

89
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 5: But chances are you don't know the names of its judges,

90
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 5: of its prosecutors, or its president, and you shouldn't have to.

91
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 5: But as we speak, the ICC and its friends are

92
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 5: waging a war against our country, not with bullets or missiles,

93
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 5: but with statutes and compacts and the force of so

94
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 5: called international law.

95
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: Now, Rubio says this is just the beginning of a

96
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 2: broader diplomatic campaign designed to strip the ICC of legitimacy

97
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 2: and prevent what it calls politically motivated prosecutions of.

98
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 3: Americans and US allies.

99
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 2: Here's more of Rubio, who says this started as a

100
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 2: way to tackle major issues the ICC, but it is

101
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,679
Speaker 2: morphed into something else, something far more sinister.

102
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 3: Cut number two.

103
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 5: But the truth is it was something far more radical

104
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 5: and extreme. It was a global tribunal staffed by unelected

105
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 5: globalist bureaucrats who claim their power is almost unlimited. The

106
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 5: danger of this global Court has only continued to grow today.

107
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 5: It threatens every aspect of our political and legal system.

108
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 5: Border patrol agents removing violent criminals from our country, American

109
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 5: marines risking their lives to defend our homeland. Prosecutors working

110
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 5: to dismantle terrorist plots to attack and kill Americans. If

111
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 5: we stand idle, all of them would be at the

112
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 5: mercy of foreign judges thousands of miles away, facing the

113
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 5: constant risk of prosecution and even imprisonment for the so

114
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 5: called crime of defending their own country.

115
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: Secretary of State Marco Rubio, once again taking big swings

116
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 2: at people and institutions who have nothing but contempt for

117
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 2: the United States and for the West Capitol Hill, a

118
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: bipartisan effort to end the twice a year clock change

119
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: is gaining momentum, at least in the House. Now, the

120
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: House Rules Committee has advanced a Trump backed Sunshine Protection Act.

121
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 2: They call it, setting up a full House vote that

122
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 2: would allow states to adopt permanent daylight saving time year round. Now,

123
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: the politics of this over in the Senate not so simple.

124
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: There's reporting today that Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas plans

125
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 2: to try to block the bill. He gave a long

126
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: speech about his opposition in twenty twenty five.

127
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 3: Let's hear from Tom Cotton.

128
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 6: Millions of Americans traveled to work in and school and darkness.

129
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 6: Commuter trains were delayed, school children carried flashlights. Tragically, some

130
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 6: of these kids were struck by cars and killed while

131
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 6: walking to school in the dark. One woman from Long Island,

132
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 6: speaking to New York Times, summed up the black mood

133
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 6: of the nation. It's the end, she said. I can't

134
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 6: cope anymore. I'm just staying in bed. What calamity had

135
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 6: befallen our nation? Had Soviet Russia finally attacked America? Had

136
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 6: we suffered a nationwide power image. Were the heavens conspiring

137
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 6: to plunge our nation into darkness? No, As it turns out,

138
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 6: the answer was more mundane and foolish. A few months earlier,

139
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 6: Congress and its eternal wisdom had imposed a top down

140
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 6: change on every American's daily life, eliminating standard time and

141
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 6: adopting daylight savings time year round.

142
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 2: Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas, speaking on the Senate floor

143
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: last year. The beginning of that clip was a little

144
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 2: cut off, but he was discussing what happened when we

145
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 2: actually did adot permanent daylight savings time back in nineteen

146
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 2: seventy four. So we'll see where this goes. Thank you

147
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 2: for listening to common sense for the American people. Great

148
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 2: show for you today. I do want to talk to

149
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 2: you about supplements for a moment now. When you think

150
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 2: about those supplements, really two things matter the most.

151
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 3: That it works and that you can trust it.

152
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: So rather than me just talking to you about relief Factor,

153
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 2: I think I'll let our customers do it for me now.

154
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 2: I hear lots of great stories from people who have

155
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 2: seen dramatic improvement with relief Factor.

156
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 3: Here's one of them.

157
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 2: Jim actually tells us that he ran out of relief

158
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: Factor twice. Twice he ran out and both times his aches,

159
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 2: his stiffness, and his pain came back. Once he restarted it,

160
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 2: he says he felt better again. As Jim puts it,

161
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,719
Speaker 2: and I quote, you know something is working when you

162

Speaker 2: production has increased by nearly sixty percent in the past

179
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 2: three years, and with plans to invest over ten billion

180

Speaker 2: The entire Congress is back at work in Washington this week,

188
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 2: and joining me now is one of those members. Congressman

189
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,719
Speaker 2: Rich McCormick of Georgia's seventh District. Congressman, thanks for joining us.

190
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 2: I know you all had a big House Republican conference

191
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 2: meeting this morning.

192
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: What happened in there?

193
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 3: What did you discuss?

194
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 7: You know, a lot of it's just about the states

195
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 7: that are up for grabs now. It's very interesting to

196
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 7: watch the left continue to drift hardcore to not just socialism,

197
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 7: but embrace communism. Really call it what it is. When

198
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 7: you talk about control of the people, when you talk

199
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 7: about control of businesses, you could even cross. It's funny

200
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 7: they like to call it fascists. I don't even think

201
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 7: they know what the word means. But when you see

202
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 7: the radical left candidates coming out, it puts a lot

203
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 7: more on the table for very competitive races, and I

204
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 7: think it puts in a much better position to maintain

205
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 7: the control.

206
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 8: Of the House.

207
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 2: Congressman, is it is it your aals belief that Democrats

208
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 2: have nominated candidates who are so far out of the

209
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 2: mainstream that it may put some of their race projections

210
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 2: in jeopardy. I mean, there are a lot of people

211
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 2: that thought Democrats might be on offense, but some of

212
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 2: these socialist candidates are you Are you saying that maybe

213
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 2: Democrats have played themselves out of some of these competitive races.

214
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 7: Precisely when you when you see the Democratic Party, sixty

215
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 7: six percent of them identify as socialists now, and a

216
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 7: lot of them don't even know what that means, that

217
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 7: they're really when they're what they're expousing, what they're what

218
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 7: they're actually for is communism, unapologetically. When they're talking about

219
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 7: stacking the court, when they're talking about making two new states,

220
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 7: you're talking about transforming the United States from something that's

221
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 7: always been Because they don't even like over fifty percent

222
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 7: of the Democratic Party right now would rather live in

223
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 7: a different country than what they live in. They don't

224
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 7: like this country. They don't like what we stand for.

225
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 7: They don't understand what the advantages we have from a meritocracy,

226
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 7: from a capitalistic society that's built the largest economy the

227
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 7: world's ever seen, the most dominant economy that the world's

228
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 7: ever seen, the most prosperity and the highest living standards,

229
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 7: the most influenced, the greatest technological advance of all times.

230
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,199
Speaker 7: They don't appreciate that because they think, for some reason

231
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 7: that embracing this idea, this insulting idea of equity, which

232
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 7: I was just talking to a bunch of Indian imgrands.

233
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 7: I said, nobody should be more insulted than you when

234
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 7: you come here from Nigeria or India, or Korea or

235
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 7: South America or anywhere else in the world to have

236
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 7: a better living standard, to be told that, don't worry

237
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 7: the government will take of you. That's the worst possible condition.

238
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 7: That's where you came from. This is the greatest nation

239
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 7: in the world for a reason. When you embrace something else,

240
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 7: beware because it will ruin this country.

241
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: Congressman, I know there's an issue floating around out there

242
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 2: that I don't think is getting enough attention, but I

243
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 2: know you're paying close attention to it, and that is

244
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 2: the issue of the strategic oil reserves in the United States.

245
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 2: They have dropped to fairly low levels. Talk to us

246
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 2: about that. What does the administration need to do about

247
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 2: our strategic oil reserves.

248
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 7: So this is something I've been very alarmed at. I

249
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 7: was very very concerned when Biden used it just to

250
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 7: manipulate the oil market in the price of gas, which

251
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 7: is not what it's meant for. But now literally when

252
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 7: we have a shortage around the world because of thirty

253
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 7: percent of the world's oil coming from the region that

254
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 7: now is essentially strangled when you dipped into it. In

255
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 7: China and ourselves have the two largest oil reserves in

256
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 7: the world. They have about fifteen times the oil reserves

257
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 7: we do. They've been very strategic. They're not really importing

258
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 7: oil at all right now, and thank god, because the

259
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 7: world market would be instantly corrupted if they did. But

260
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 7: eventually they're going to have hard times too. We've continued

261
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 7: to diminish ours at a necessity, but if we don't

262
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 7: do something, This is why being forward thinking, having more refineries,

263
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 7: we have the capacity to produce a whole lot of oil.

264
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 7: We have more oil than anybody else in the world,

265
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 7: but we have not set ourselves up to be successful

266
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 7: in these sort of strategic landmark times and history. And

267
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 7: that's you think nobody but the Democratic Party for that.

268
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 7: They're not visionary, they're reactionary. They think you're gonna you're

269
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 7: power of the United States by solar panels. Well, just

270
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 7: look at one data center and you'll laugh that out

271
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 7: of the context. The fact that China produces more solar

272
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 7: paneters than the rest of the will combined, yet they

273
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 7: rely on less than two percent of the energy produced

274
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 7: by solar panters should tell you everything you need to

275
00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 7: know about the future of energy, about the future of ordersers,

276
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 7: and where we need to be. We need to be

277
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 7: thinking about replenishing, not diminishing, our old reserves. Unfortunately, right now, strategically,

278
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 7: that's not possible.

279
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 2: Congressman ten second prediction. Can the House Republicans get a

280
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 2: reconciliation bill over the finish line this summer and something

281
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 2: over to the Senate that the Senate might then be

282
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 2: able to pass.

283
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 7: The House Republicans absolutely will, We can, and we will.

284
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 7: This is the most united our parties ever been despite

285
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 7: our problems. We've never been this united ever as a

286
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 7: percentage of the Republican Party before, and will continue to

287
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 7: get it done.

288
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 2: Congressman Rich McCormick, Georgia's seventh district. Congressman, thanks for your

289

292
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,000

293
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: daily lives running, It powers innovation, it creates new opportunities

Speaker 2: for communities large and small, and Duke energy is meeting

295

Speaker 2: the country. Through smart investments in technology and infrastructure, they're

298
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 2: adding enough capacity to power ten and a half million

299
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 2: homes over the next five years, and they're doing it

300
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 2: while keeping costs as low as possible, returning billions to customers,

301
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,719

304
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 2: customer savings, including over three billion from federal tax credits.

305

316
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:24,880
Speaker 2: we've ever had, in which Cardinals slugger Jordan Walker silenced

317
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 2: the Phillies fans, silence the Philadelphia crowd to pull off

318
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 2: one of the greatest feats, six swings, six home runs

319
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 2: to defeat Kyle Schwarmer. I'm going to talk about my

320
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 2: experience at the home run derby in just a minute,

321
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: but first I do want to talk to you about

322
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 2: a key issue, and it's a reality for our country

323
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 2: that the bureaucrats don't want to acknowledge, and that is

324
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 2: that Alzheimer's is becoming an economic time bomb. We're not

325
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 2: ready for this. Cases are on track to nearly double

326
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 2: by twenty sixty. That would be about four firteen million cases.

327
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 2: A lot of cases puts pressure on families, the workforce,

328
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 2: and certainly an already strained Medicare and Medicaid program. Now

329
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 2: here's the part that should get your attention about this.

330
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 2: American families shoulder most of the burden. They cover about

331
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 2: seventy percent of the four hundred thousand dollars lifetime care cost. Now,

332
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,879
Speaker 2: our competitors in the world are not standing still. China,

333
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 2: in fact, has launched a national priority to aggressively expand

334
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 2: early diagnosis and treatment. But here in the United States.

335
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 2: We're waiting, still waiting, until it's too late. However, we

336
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 2: could turn this around. We have the tools like simple

337
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 2: blood tests to spot the early signs of Alzheimer's, and

338
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 2: that could keep people healthier, longer and in the workforce. Now,

339
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 2: four out of five voters say they are more likely

340
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 2: to support a candidate who prioritizes better access to Alzheimer's detection, diagnosis,

341
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 2: and treatment. That's good for family, it's good for the economy,

342
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 2: and frankly, it's just common sense, which you know we

343
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 2: fight for around here.

344
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 3: If you want to learn more.

345
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 2: And join the fight, go to market Institute dot org.

346
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: It's our friends at market Institute dot org. It is Tuesday,

347
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 2: July fourteenth. This is common sense for the American people.

348
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 2: I'm Scott Jennings. I don't know if you can detect it,

349
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 2: but I got a little.

350
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 3: Hoarseness in my voice.

351
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 2: Today because I am suffering, struggling after yelling myself to

352
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,119
Speaker 2: death last night in the stands, I was sitting just

353
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 2: over the right field wall, about five or six rows

354
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: back for the home run derby. I don't know if

355
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 2: you like the home run derby, if you like baseball,

356
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:51,479
Speaker 2: I love home Run Derby.

357
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,479
Speaker 3: Do you ever remember any of you all out there?

358
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 2: When I was a kid, I remember on I forget

359
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 2: it might have been ESPN Clubs. I can't remember one

360
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 2: of the uh one of the stations would play reruns

361
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,360
Speaker 2: of the original Black and White Home Run Derby where

362
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 2: they would take two stars of the game, you know,

363
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 2: Arnie Banks, Harmon Killer Brew and they would have a

364
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 2: one on one home run Derby. It was a black

365
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 2: and white show. There was an announcer, and it was

366
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 2: really interesting.

367
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 3: Anyway.

368
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 2: I love that as a kid and as an adult.

369
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 2: Part of the my favorite part of the All Star

370
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 2: Game festivities is the Home Run Derby. I'd never been,

371
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 2: but I got a chance to go last night in Philadelphia,

372
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 2: and I sat in what I thought was going to

373
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 2: be the home run landing zone right over the wall.

374
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 2: Little did I know, virtually every ball that was hit

375
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 2: to right field went over my head, not just to

376
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 2: buy a little, but by a lot. But what I'm

377
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 2: gonna remember now, I'm a Cardinals fan. You all know

378
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 2: that I talk about the Redbirds out here sometimes, But

379
00:21:52,680 --> 00:22:00,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna remember Jordan Walker leaping onto the national stage. Bye,

380
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 2: pardon me bye. Well, he had a great first round,

381
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 2: he hit like thirteen home runs. Then he easily defeated

382
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 2: his opponent in the second round, and then in the finals,

383
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 2: Jordan Walker had to hit six home runs in a row.

384
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 2: He had to hit six in a row without missing

385
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,479
Speaker 2: to win it. And here is the final swing. I

386
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,400
Speaker 2: took this video. I took this video. Cut fifteen.

387
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 10: Okay, man, let's coach j Walk. Here me go one

388
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 10: swing for the home or Walker.

389
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 8: Up.

390
00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 10: Oh my god.

391
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 2: Now, if you're just listening on the radio show, you

392
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 2: heard me screaming about Jordan Walker.

393
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 3: I couldn't believe it.

394
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 2: But he's got this easy power, just very fluid, smooth swing.

395
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 2: He doesn't look it's not overly violent, just easy power.

396
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 2: When he hit that last ball, I'm out there screaming.

397
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 2: My oldest Everett is out there going crazy. You know,

398
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 2: we're wearing Cardinals jerseys out in the outfield, and I'm

399
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 2: sitting out there in a sea of Phillies fans, and

400
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 2: you know, Philadelphia sports fans are known for their graciousness

401
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 2: and politeness and so on. So as you can imagine,

402
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 2: they fell silent and had to listen to Everett and me,

403
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 2: And there was like one other Cardinals guy out there

404
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 2: in right field. It was quite a thrill I'd never

405
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 2: been to. It was amazing. By the way Major League Baseball,

406
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 2: I have to say, they changed the rules this year.

407
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 2: Used to be on a timer, you would just keep

408
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 2: swinging until your clock ran out. This year they did

409
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 2: it by total swings. Give you fifteen swings, and that's

410
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 2: how many chances you got, and that's how you'd hit

411
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 2: home runs based on swings, and even a home run

412
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 2: countada as a swing. So what Jordan Walker did was

413
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 2: nothing short of miraculous. And he did it by defeating

414
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 2: Kyle Schwarber, who, if you're not a baseball fan, is

415
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: like the number one fan favorite for the Philadelphia Phillies

416
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 2: and a great player and a great left handed hitter,

417
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: a lot of power, and he also put on an

418
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 2: amazing performance. Nothing against Kyle Schwarber, but Jordan Walker is

419
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 2: having a breakout season. And I wanted to bring this

420
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 2: up with you all because not what happened during the

421
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:59,679
Speaker 2: home run Derby, but something that happened right after Jordan

422
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 2: Walker her celebrating his home run Derby title, brings out

423
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 2: onto the field his family, including his grandmother and his father,

424
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 2: and you know, we promote families here, and we promote

425
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: family friendly cultural ideas here. And I was so impressed

426
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: with Jordan Walker's family. They've been through it with Jordan Walker.

427
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 2: He's still young, but he came up young and really

428
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 2: struggled with Major League baseball, got sent back to the

429
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 2: minor leagues. It was like a year ago that Cardinals

430
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 2: fans were wondering would we ever see Jordan Walker again?

431
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 2: Six months ago, even even in spring training this year,

432
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 2: And yet here Jordan Walker as he's been one of

433
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 2: the best hitters at baseball this year. Now he's the

434
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 2: home run Derby champion, and everything he's doing is rooted

435
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 2: in this clear, strong family unit that he has. Let's

436
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 2: hear Jordan Walker's grandmother on the field with him right

437
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 2: after the home run derby cut three.

438
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,159
Speaker 7: I want to ask, amazing, grandma, how are you feeling

439
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 7: out there?

440
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 10: Oh?

441
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,919
Speaker 11: My god, just I can't express it, but he knows.

442
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 11: I've watched him since he was illegal playing baseball, he

443
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 11: was too young to play, and I've been following him

444
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 11: since he started when they couldn't find cleet small enough

445
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 11: for him, and he was truly engrossed. And I do

446
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 11: believe this is his life call I believe.

447
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 3: Listen to that.

448
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 2: I've been watching Jordan Walker since they couldn't find cleats.

449
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:41,479
Speaker 3: For him his feet were too small.

450
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 2: And his father, the relationship between Jordan Walker and his father,

451
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 2: you know, his dad was out there and they kept

452
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 2: showing his dad on the broadcast and he came out

453
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 2: on the field.

454
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 3: Listen to this, Listen to this cut number four.

455
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: Oh you're dad, Derek, get over here, Get over here.

456
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 10: How about your book? Oh?

457
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 12: He was awesome today. I just loved everything about it.

458
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 12: Just his attitude, his approach, the smoothness is the sleep

459
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 12: look like his dad.

460
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: But yeah, he just did a great job. We're so

461
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: proud of him. He just really went proud.

462
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,199
Speaker 2: He told me at six years old he had home

463
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 2: run hit his grandma's car.

464
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,159
Speaker 1: When did you know he could be this?

465
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 2: Oh?

466
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: Man, So that was an indication there. That was one

467
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 1: good indication.

468
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 12: I think again, from early age, he always loved the game.

469
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 12: He always loved to play baseball. He loved to sleep

470
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 12: with his glove. He always had a bat. We traveled

471
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 12: with it all the time. He you know, h slept

472
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 12: thought baseball and he just kept progressing. He just he

473
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 12: just kept getting better and better and working in his craft.

474
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: And again, we can't be more proud. You said you

475
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: were so nervous Jordan coming in you full of me.

476
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 10: We didn't look it.

477
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: No, No, absolutely was nervous.

478
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 8: Man hold on one sing right.

479
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 13: Howard with the Jaine loved laying from Ryan Howard.

480
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 2: I couldn't hear all this going on in the stadium,

481
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 2: but I could tell something was going on up there

482
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 2: and by home plate, And when I watched it later,

483
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 2: I was so proud for Jordan Walker. The whole message.

484
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 2: You know, sometimes in life you run into difficulties, you

485
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 2: hit speed bumps, feels like you've run into a brick wall.

486
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 3: How am I going to get through this?

487
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 2: Have I been pursuing a dream for so long and

488
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 2: only to find out I can't make it? I don't

489
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 2: have the talent. I've worked as hard as I can

490
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 2: and it's not good enough. I'm sure that's how Jordan

491
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,719
Speaker 2: Walker was feeling over the last couple of years. If

492
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 2: you follow baseball and follow his story, he was a

493
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 2: celebrated young player. They brought him up very young, and

494
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 2: he had moments of brilliance. He had flashes of brilliance,

495
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: but overall it was a struggle, and it looked like

496
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 2: maybe the hype was just that hype that Jordan Walker

497
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: wasn't everything they said he was going to be. And

498
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 2: you know, he just went back to work. They sent

499
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 2: him down to the minor leagues. He spent the entire

500
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 2: off season basically revamping his swing. He worked and he

501
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 2: worked and he worked, and he never gave up. And

502
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 2: I can tell you watching those clips, his family never

503
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 2: gave up on him either. And the lesson in this

504
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 2: is so critical. What happens to kids who were growing up,

505
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 2: who have dreams, who were trying to grow into those dreams.

506
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 3: What happens to kids.

507
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 2: Who have that supportive family unit, who have parents and

508
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 2: grandparents who were there with him every step of the way,

509
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 2: who never lose faith? And what happens to kids who

510
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 2: don't Jordan Walker had as that, I think we know

511
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 2: the answer to it. And as a society, as a culture,

512
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: as a political culture, truly a good idea for us

513
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 2: to promote policies and to promote structures that give kids

514
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 2: that family unit, because kids, your kids are going to

515
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 2: run into difficulties out there, but the ones who make

516
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 2: it most often are the ones who have those.

517
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 3: Strong families behind them.

518
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 2: Congratulations of Jordan Walker into Jordan Walker's family, couldn't be

519
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 2: more proud for him and to be a Cardinals fan.

520
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 2: It's a great day in Cardinal Nation because of Jordan Walker.

Speaker 1: Well, he's done. The Oval Office are owning the libs

542

Speaker 1: on CNN. He's here with us. It's the Scott Jennings Show.

543
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 2: Tuesday, July to fourteenth. Thanks for listening. I want to

544
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: talk a little free speech issue. This one caught my

545
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 2: attention and well we'll submit it to you to see

546
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 2: what you think. Florida International University FIU, as it's known,

547
00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 2: is facing national scrutiny from an organization call the Foundation

548
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: for Individual Rights and Expression. You hear it called fire

549
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 2: over its discipline of seven students who silently protested an

550
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 2: FIU ICE agreement at a March twenty twenty six campus event.

551
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 3: This happened March the thirteenth.

552
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 2: I believe the event featured a fireside chat with FIU

553
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 2: president Jeanette Nunez in that seven students stood up, unzipped

554
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:30,239
Speaker 2: their hoodies to reveal ICE off FIU T shirts, and

555
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 2: they walked out. University officials later acknowledged the protest did

556
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 2: not disrupt the event. Regardless of how you feel about

557
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 2: ICE and enforcing the law. What happened next is what

558
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 2: is of interest to me. FIU demanded that students record

559
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 2: video reflections regarding their behavior in order to remain students

560
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 2: in good standing, and they were required to I guess

561
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 2: in gay and what Fire calls some state scripted obedience.

562
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 2: It is a free speech issue that caught my intention

563
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 2: here to discuss is Robert Shipley, who is a special

564
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 2: counsel for Campus advocacy with Fire. Robert, thanks for joining

565
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 2: us on the Scott Jennings Show. This is interesting because

566
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 2: people may have different opinions about ice and immigration enforcement.

567
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 2: What I want to focus on is the free speech

568
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 2: implications of this. First of all, tell us what Fire

569
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 2: does regarding free speech and how you all view this issue.

570
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 14: At Florida International, sure Fire defends the free speech of

571
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 14: students on campus, professors and faculty members as well as Now,

572
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 14: after many years of doing that, which is what we

573
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 14: became known for, we do off campus cases as well.

574
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 14: But this is very much in the heart of what

575
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 14: Fire was founded to do, which was to push back

576
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 14: on universities trying to tell students and faculty members, regardless

577
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 14: of their political positions, that they have to say, or do,

578
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 14: or believe certain arguable political uh uh provisions or beliefs

579
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 14: in order to be successful and accepted on those campuses.

580
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 14: And so telling these FIU students that they actually have

581
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 14: to record uh, these these forced apologies, and that if

582
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 14: their apology isn't sincere seeming enough, they can be made

583
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 14: to re record it, and if they don't succeed in

584
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 14: satisfying the administrators, they're gonna have their diploma withheld.

585
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:37,280
Speaker 3: Is absolutely outrageous.

586
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 14: It's something you would see in an authoritarian uh dictatorship,

587
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 14: and not not something you should be seeing on a

588
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 14: public university campus in the United States.

589
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the part of the story that caught

590
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,839
Speaker 2: my attention. You know, look, I see there's jostling over,

591
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: you know, students and engaging in certain kinds of speech

592
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 2: on campus, and there's often you know, jostling over to

593
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,399
Speaker 2: this disrupt something, did it not? But the forcing them

594
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 2: to make VID and then having to approve those videos,

595
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,240
Speaker 2: that's what caught my attention. How many of the students

596
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 2: actually wound up doing it or did any of.

597
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 3: Them do it?

598
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 14: Well, we're going back and forth with FIU about this

599
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 14: right now, and I don't have the answer for you

600
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 14: as to how many of them are going along with this.

601
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 14: I know they don't wish to go along with it.

602
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,760
Speaker 14: But you know, at the same time, holding somebody's diploma

603
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 14: or their financial laid over their head is very powerful.

604
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 14: And you know what really gets to the heart of

605
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 14: it is what is FIU. What is any really authority

606
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 14: hoping to accomplish by making you say something that you

607
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 14: might not believe? You know, would this convince you or

608
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 14: your child or anybody else that you know, if you're

609
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 14: forced to apologize that you were actually wrong and that

610
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 14: you're actually sorry, or is this going to harden your

611
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 14: viewpoints and also send the message that the authorities get

612
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 14: to tell you what you can say. And think I

613
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,320
Speaker 14: think it's very clearly the latter.

614
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 2: Robert, We've got about sixty seconds left. What do you

615
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 2: hope the outcome is here? I assume you want to

616
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 2: get the FIU administration to back off of this provision,

617
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 2: not just for these students, but in general, you know,

618
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,879
Speaker 2: not not have a policy of making people say things

619
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 2: that they might not necessarily believe in.

620
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.

621
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,240
Speaker 14: We want FIU to acknowledge that it is not supposed

622
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 14: to be doing this and not to make a practice

623
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 14: out of doing this. One of the things that we

624
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 14: do know is that when we run into cases like this,

625
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 14: it's often the tip of the icebergy. Forcing people to

626
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 14: make a recorded apology video is not something maybe you

627
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 14: or I would automatically come up with. It suggests that,

628
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 14: you know, maybe this is the kind of thing that

629
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 14: is customary there, and if so, it needs to stop.

630
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 3: Robert Shipley is our guest.

631
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 2: He is special counsel for campus advocacy with a group

632
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 2: called Fire and Fire Advocates for Free Speech.

633
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 3: Robert, I appreciate your time today. We'll follow this story.

634
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 2: I'm kind of interested in how it turns out, so

635
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 2: if you'll keep your phone on, we'll look forward to

636
00:36:59,280 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 2: getting the up.

637
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 3: When it concludes, we're going.

638
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 2: To take a break. We have more to come after this.

639
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:04,720
Speaker 2: It's Scott Jennings on Salem.

640
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 9: Stay with us, common sense for the American people. This

641
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,359
Speaker 9: is the Scott Jennings Show.

642
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 2: Welcome back here. On Tuesday, July the fourteenth. Quick check

643
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 2: of the headlines. Some Supreme Court justices are up on

644
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,959
Speaker 2: Capitol Hill today for the first time in a number

645
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,240
Speaker 2: of years. Actually, Justices Elina Kagan and Amy Coney Barrett

646
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 2: testifying over the need for additional funding for their own security.

647
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 2: This is in the face of heightened threats against the Justices.

648
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 2: The Court's asking for an increase in the range of

649
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 2: about twenty million dollars to the budget that would go

650
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 2: to Supreme Court Police and Defense against cyber threats.

651
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 3: Now, I want you to listen to Justice.

652
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 2: Amy Coney Barrett describing her own experience with these threats

653
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 2: cut number seventeen.

654
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 13: Example is when threats to my life were particularly intense

655
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 13: a few years ago, around the time of the job.

656
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 13: Sleek my security details sent me home with the bulletproof

657
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 13: vest and I carried it into my house, put it

658
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,800
Speaker 13: into my bedroom, dropped it down on a table, turned around,

659
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 13: and my twelve year old son was standing in the

660
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 13: doorway of my bedroom and he wanted to know what

661
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 13: it was and why I had it. And I didn't

662
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,360
Speaker 13: know how to respond, because maybe I lack imagination, but

663
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 13: I didn't expect that performing this service was going to

664
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,280
Speaker 13: put me in the position of explaining to my children

665
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 13: what a bulletproofest was and why I had to wear one.

666
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 13: It's also been reported and the news that roughly six

667
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 13: weeks ago, I was the victim of a swatting incident.

668
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,320
Speaker 13: At that point, my teenage son, one of my teenage

669
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 13: sons opened the door to go out with friends and

670
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 13: saw in our street it was full of police cars

671
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 13: who had responded to a false report of gunshots and

672
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 13: raised voices in my home. I was very, very grateful

673
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 13: that I had Supreme Court police outside my home because

674
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 13: they were able to stop and meet with and explain

675
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 13: to the county police that it had been a false alarm,

676
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,839
Speaker 13: and so the police did not actually attempt to enter

677
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 13: our home.

678
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 2: Today from Amy Coney Barrett about all the threats to

679
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 2: these Supreme Court justices, hopefully they get their security funding.

680
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 2: Sounds like they certainly need it. There's been a major

681
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 2: new development from the Department of Justice today pertaining to

682
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 2: Jack Smith and his investigation team. Senator Chuck Grassley has

683
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,839
Speaker 2: confirmed today that his team, jack Smith's team that is,

684
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:33,760
Speaker 2: viewed the contents of private text messages sent by forty

685
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 2: four different members of Congress, with Chuck Grassley being one

686
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 2: of the forty four. Grassley is now alerting his impacted

687
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 2: colleagues and alongside Senator Ron Johnson, they are going to

688
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 2: release the evidence soon for the American people to see.

689
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 2: So information coming out that Jack Smith was in fact

690
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 2: spying on dozens and dozens of members of Congress and

691
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,919
Speaker 2: were just now getting more evidence on that trickling out

692
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 2: over time, but also chilling stuff. Also, as we mentioned earlier,

693
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:10,320
Speaker 2: the inflation data came out today from the government, and frankly,

694
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 2: it was phenomenal. It beat all expectations from the mainstream economists.

695
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 2: Inflation a month over month dropped more than it had

696
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 2: in six years. The month over month inflation data dropping

697
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 2: more than it had in over six years. This is

698
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 2: a testament to new policies, I think from the Trump

699
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 2: administration versus what we were getting out of the Biden administration.

700
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 3: We're hoping to get on the line with us in

701
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 3: just a moment a member.

702
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 2: Of the White House staff to discuss these inflation numbers.

703
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 2: But you know what was interesting about the data reports

704
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 2: that came out today. Mainstream economists did not predict this.

705
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 3: There was no.

706
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,360
Speaker 2: Forewarning that we were going to see such a reduction

707
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 2: in the inflation numbers. Now, some of the had to

708
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 2: do with gas prices coming down dramatically, but it is

709
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 2: interesting to discuss this inflation data in the context of

710
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:15,280
Speaker 2: the way Democrats are choosing to prosecute the case against

711
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 2: Donald Trump and the Republicans ahead of the midterm election.

712
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 3: Now you go back four years.

713
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 2: Right now, year over year inflation is like three and

714
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 2: a half percent.

715
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 3: Core inflation is less than that.

716
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 2: You go back four years under Joe Biden, inflation was

717
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 2: nine percent nine percent. And the people who ran that administration,

718
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 2: and the Democrats in Congress who supported that administration, who

719
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 2: covered up for that administration, who told you the American

720
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:58,839
Speaker 2: people that everything was fine during that period of time

721
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 2: when inflation was skyrocketing, all those people are now the

722
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 2: same people telling you that Donald Trump has somehow caused you.

723
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 3: To have an inflation crisis in your life.

724
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 2: Somehow it's Donald Trump's fault that prices were taken to

725
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 2: the moon.

726
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 3: During the Biden administration.

727
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 9: It's not.

728
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:26,280
Speaker 3: Here's what happened.

729
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 2: For four years, Democrats and Democratic policies drove up inflation

730
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 2: to astronomical rates. You all can debate amongst yourselves how

731
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,400
Speaker 2: historic or unprecedented it was. But all I know is

732
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 2: the average person out there is not worried about the

733
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 2: adjectives to describe it as much as they were worried

734
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 2: about why it was happening to them and why were

735
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 2: people lying to them about it. During the Biden administration,

736
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 2: gas groceries, housing, energy, you name it, and it went up.

737
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 2: We have the data, the rates of inflation. That's what

738
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 2: we're talking about here, the rates of inflation, massive spikes

739
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 2: in everything Trump takes over. The rates of inflation have

740
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 2: fallen dramatically. There is fluctuation in the data month to

741
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 2: month and over time. But if you compare, according to

742
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 2: today's data, what's happening today versus what was happening four

743
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 2: years ago, there is no comparison. And yet Democrats are

744
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 2: making a political argument that Donald Trump is causing an

745
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 2: inflation crisis, an affordability crisis, they call it. They've adopted

746
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 2: this word affordability. It's a word they just recently learned.

747
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:58,919
Speaker 2: They didn't learn it during the Biden years. They didn't

748
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 2: know what it meant. They'd never heard of it. Now

749
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 2: they say it all the time. But the data is

750
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:09,399
Speaker 2: pretty clear. You've got the biggest inflation drop month over

751
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,759
Speaker 2: month that you've seen in six years. Since April of

752
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 2: twenty twenty, the annual inflation rate is three and a

753
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 2: half percent. Core inflation two point six percent. Four years ago,

754
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 2: under Biden, it was over nine percent. And the people

755
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 2: who apologize for that ignored it or lied about it.

756
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:33,360
Speaker 2: Are now telling you that we have a problem, joining

757
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 2: me to discuss this. Cush to sign, Deputy White House

758
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 2: Press Secretary Cush. Thanks for hopping on the phone with

759
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 2: us here. You all have seen the data today on inflation.

760
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 2: What does this tell you about how the President's policies

761
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 2: are working for the American people?

762
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 15: Thanks for having me on, Scott. Look, I think this

763
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 15: vindicates everything that President Trump has been saying and morep

764
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 15: only everything that President Trump has been doing. As you

765
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 15: mentioned earlier, this broke this as every single expectation that

766
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,279
Speaker 15: the so called expert e Congress had put out there.

767
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 15: The consensus was that inflation would drop by two negative

768
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,399
Speaker 15: point one percent, and it actually came down. Prices actually

769
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 15: came down four times lower than that, by point four percent.

770
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 15: And I think there's two major trend lines here that

771
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,839
Speaker 15: are worth underscoring. Is that Number one, President Trump very

772
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 15: consistently said at the beginning of Operation Epics theory that

773
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,560
Speaker 15: oil and gas prices would go up temporarily and as

774
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,959
Speaker 15: soon as we had some resolution here, those prices would

775
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 15: plummet and overall inflation would plummet again. And that's exactly

776
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 15: what happened this inflation report. We saw gas prices come

777
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,439
Speaker 15: down by almost ten percent, and that dragged overall inflation down.

778
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 15: But more importantly, I think, Scott, is that some of

779
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 15: the longer term agenda items that the President and this

780
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:51,720
Speaker 15: administration I've been working on showed right through this report.

781
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 15: You saw declins and prescription drug prices and healthcare services

782
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 15: and auto insurance, and these are all things. These are

783
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 15: all results of the things that the President is doing

784
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 15: on immigration to get reckless and legal immigrant drivers, offer

785
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 15: roads to get drug prices down by cutting those MFN deals.

786
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 15: So I think there's a lot of great news here,

787
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:09,919
Speaker 15: and I think there's any more to come.

788
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's good news too, Cush. And what's

789
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,520
Speaker 2: amazing is that the economists that they always survey about

790
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 2: this before the data comes out, they all missed it.

791
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 2: They all seem to not know what's going on out there.

792
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 2: But the facts are we've had the biggest inflation drop

793
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 2: month over month that we've had in six years. Pushed

794
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 2: aside from the White House, thank you for joining us.

795
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,239
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about supplements.

796
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:31,840
Speaker 3: For a moment.

797
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 2: When you're thinking about supplements, only a couple of things

798
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 2: really matter.

799
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 3: Does it work. Can I trust it? That's what you

800
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:37,640
Speaker 3: want to know.

801
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 2: Now, we hear from people here every single day who

802
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 2: ask these questions about Relief Factor, and they keep coming

803
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,719
Speaker 2: back with the same answers. Yes, it works, Yes you

804
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 2: can trust it, but don't take my word for it.

805
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 3: Listen to the customers.

806
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 2: Joni, she tells us her husband could not open his

807
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:59,320
Speaker 2: hands in the morning to play the guitar.

808
00:46:59,440 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 3: It was amused.

809
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 2: Now he wakes up every day with that flexibility back,

810
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:06,760
Speaker 2: and he's playing music again. Both Joni and her husband,

811
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:11,799
Speaker 2: the musician, recommend Relief Factor as to their friends as

812
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 2: a way to get back to enjoying the things that

813
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 2: they love. So don't take my word for it. Talk

814
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 2: to people like Joni. Talk to Jony's husband, he's playing

815
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 2: the guitar. Get yourself a three week supply of Relief Factor.

823
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 2: riff over pretzels at the Social Security Administration.

Speaker 9: Stay with us news, comment and the stories in facts

826
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,560

00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 1: It's the Scott Jennings Show.

828
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:59,319
Speaker 2: All right, Tuesday, July the fourteenth, Thanks for being here.

829
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:03,280
Speaker 3: Common sense for the American people. Common sense.

830
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,920
Speaker 2: I feel like every single day I read something and

831
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:11,920
Speaker 2: my reaction to it is, can people just not use

832
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:13,160
Speaker 2: their common sense anymore?

833
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 3: Maybe you feel that way too, So I'm reading this.

834
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 2: There's a news website called Notice NTUS, which is a

835
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:27,440
Speaker 2: play on acronyms. You ever heard the term potus pot

836
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:31,719
Speaker 2: us president of the United States. Notice means news of

837
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 2: the United States. Okay, clever. I know some Notice stories

838
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 2: and reporters and follow it a little bit. So I'm

839
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 2: reading Notice and they have uncovered what can only be

840
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:49,839
Speaker 2: described as the most important breaking news of the day.

841
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know how we live without news

842
00:48:53,160 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 2: like this. Their story today is that the employees of

843
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:05,879
Speaker 2: the Social Security Administration are mad about pretzels. Specifically, they're

844
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 2: mad that somebody gave them pretzels. Why would you be

845
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 2: mad about getting pretzels. Well, let's look into it. The

846
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:19,440
Speaker 2: story says that the commissioner of the Social Security Administration

847
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 2: is named Frank Bissangno, and he is found to have

848
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:33,880
Speaker 2: been sending packages of chocolate covered pretzels to his employees

849
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 2: as a thank you to their hard work for their

850
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:44,239
Speaker 2: hard work. Now, the pretzels are made by a company

851
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 2: that his daughter runs called Pretcibles. Okay, so he has

852
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,239
Speaker 2: a daughter that makes Principals pretzels.

853
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:53,880
Speaker 3: Her company is Principles.

854
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 2: So he says, I'm trying to send these pretzels around

855
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 2: to help with office morale. I mean, if I work

856
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 2: at the Social Security Administration, I would need you'd have

857
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:06,279
Speaker 2: to send me pretzels every ten minutes to get my

858
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 2: morale up. But anyway, so he sends these things around

859
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:20,239
Speaker 2: by the way out of his own pocket, no taxpayer money.

860
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 2: He literally dips into his own pocket and says, you know,

861
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:27,439
Speaker 2: these people work for me. They work very hard. Maybe

862
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 2: we're understaffed. It's kind of a thankless job, sitting in

863
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 2: an office building in a cubicle all day talking about

864
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 2: Social Security. I'll send these people some chocolate covered pretzels.

865
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:48,600
Speaker 2: Several Social Security Administration employees interviewed by Notice News of

866
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 2: the United States said the gifts did little to improve

867
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:58,319
Speaker 2: morale at the agency. Some employees characterized the gesture as

868
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:04,839
Speaker 2: tone deaf. In some offices, employees reportedly chose not to

869
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 2: eat the pretzels. Somebody sent them some pretzels, chocolate covered pretzels,

870
00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,440
Speaker 2: and they literally sat there, looked at the pretzels and said,

871
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 2: I'm going to make an active decision not to eat

872
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:22,920
Speaker 2: these pretzels.

873
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,960
Speaker 3: I will send a message I'm not happy. I'm not

874
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,040
Speaker 3: going to eat the pretzels.

875
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 2: Government ethics experts quoted in the article raised questions about

876
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 2: whether a public official should use his position to distribute

877
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 2: products from a family member's business. Now, I actually would

878
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:48,919
Speaker 2: agree if they're using taxpayer dollars, maybe you would too.

879
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:54,920
Speaker 2: But according to Notice the News of the United States,

880
00:51:55,800 --> 00:52:00,279
Speaker 2: they spoke to the SSA Social Security Administration who's said

881
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,319
Speaker 2: that no taxpayer funds or agency resources were used to

882
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:07,840
Speaker 2: purchase or distribute the pretzels. The gifts underwent an ethics

883
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 2: review and were cleared before being sent. This man, Frank Bisango,

884
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 2: literally went to the ethics people and got the pretzels cleared.

885
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:24,319
Speaker 3: Before he sent them out.

886
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:30,280
Speaker 2: They said, fine, he sent them out, And still these

887
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:38,040
Speaker 2: miserable bureaucrats are complaining, complaining about getting a gift from

888
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 2: their boss, chocolate covered pretzels. I was reading this today

889
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 2: and I was thinking to myself, how miserable do you

890
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 2: have to be to complain that your boss, who clearly

891
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 2: wants to do something nice for you, sent you some

892
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:00,800
Speaker 2: chocolate pretzels.

893
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 3: Also, how miserable do you have to be.

894
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 2: To wake up today and say I work for the

895
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 2: news of the United States.

896
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 3: You know what today's top news is.

897
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:21,720
Speaker 2: Chocolate covered pretzels being sent against the will of these bureaucrats.

898
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 3: That's the news. I'm going to get to the.

899
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 2: Bottom of this story. These sinister pretzels.

900
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:35,360
Speaker 3: Well they did it.

901
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 2: Congratulations Do everybody involved? All right, let's talk about an issue, Alzheimer's.

902
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:45,080
Speaker 2: You know who doesn't want to talk about Alzheimer's the bureaucrats,

903
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,640
Speaker 2: because they don't want you to know. This is becoming

904
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:49,960
Speaker 2: an economic time bomb.

905
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 3: We're not ready.

906
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:56,279
Speaker 2: Cases are doubling by twenty sixty to fourteen million. This

907
00:53:56,320 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 2: will put pressure on families, our workforce, and medicare and

908
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 2: Medicaid's not good. You know, families shoulder the burden here.

909
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:08,520
Speaker 2: Seventy percent of the four hundred thousand dollars lifetime cost

910
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 2: is shouldered by these families. Our competitors in the world,

911
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:17,000
Speaker 2: they know it's a problem. China's launched a national priority.

912
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 2: You need to get on this. Join the fight for

913
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 2: better Alzheimer's Detection Policy Market Institute dot org, Market Institute

914
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 2: dot org. We got to do better here would make

915
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 2: good common sense to do so more after this, stay

916
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:31,879
Speaker 2: with us.

917
00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 9: You want to drive a leftist crazy, Tell the truth

918
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 9: and keep smiling.

919
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:38,439
Speaker 1: This is the Scott Jenny Show.

920
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:40,959
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to the show.

921
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:45,360
Speaker 2: You know, I was thinking yesterday and today, because of

922
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,640
Speaker 2: everything else that's been going on, we have not been

923
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 2: doing our usual deep dive into issues surrounding this fight

924
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 2: that the United States and Israel has going with Iran.

925
00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 3: I'm sure you've been following.

926
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 2: The news throughsidential statements. Presidents said today he's dropping his

927
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 2: idea of charging tolls for people going through the Strait

928
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 2: of Horne moves. We still have a tax going on

929
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 2: between Israel, I'm sorry, between the United States and Iran. Israel,

930
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 2: of course still has national security implications on their own border.

931
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:20,040
Speaker 2: They are dealing with a lot going on here, and

932
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,279
Speaker 2: I wanted to catch up on all of it with

933
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:27,399
Speaker 2: our friend Michael mckowski, doctor Makowski. Since twenty thirteen, he's

934
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 2: been the President and CEO of the Jewish Institute for

935
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:36,360
Speaker 2: National Security of America. He has a long history working

936
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:41,400
Speaker 2: on US Israel defense issues, US policy towards Iran and

937
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:44,439
Speaker 2: other places in the Middle East, the role of US

938
00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:48,520
Speaker 2: energy and national security policy, et cetera, et cetera. Former

939
00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,840
Speaker 2: Pentagon official as well. Mike, thanks for joining us. Most

940
00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:54,839
Speaker 2: importantly on your resume is that you're a fellow Saint

941
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:58,240
Speaker 2: Louis Cardinals fan, So I already held you in high esteem.

942
00:55:58,760 --> 00:55:59,919
Speaker 3: Now I assume you're IQ.

943
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 2: You is like fifty points higher because you cheer for

944
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 2: the correct team.

945
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 3: I know you're from Saint Louis.

946
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 2: You must have been as excited as I was to

947
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 2: see Jordan Walker do so well last night.

948
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,520
Speaker 16: Yeah, First of all, thank you very much for having me.

949
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,120
Speaker 16: It's an honor to be on and I agree with you.

950
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 16: I think Jordan Walker, first of all, he seems like

951
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,360
Speaker 16: a great guy and it's been one of the great

952
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 16: stories of baseball to have a turnaround story, like he's

953
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:27,960
Speaker 16: had a guy that everyone thought was going to be

954
00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 16: Rookie of the Year, then was a bus for two years,

955
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,360
Speaker 16: and then is having this phenomenal breakout season, then to

956
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:37,279
Speaker 16: win the home run derby. It's a great story, and

957
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:40,680
Speaker 16: I'm very happy for him and his family and the Cardinals.

958
00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:41,359
Speaker 3: Yeah.

959
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:44,200
Speaker 2: Great, great story, great family story. We talked about that

960
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,200
Speaker 2: a little earlier on the show. His father and his

961
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:48,920
Speaker 2: grandmother down there on the field with him. They were

962
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 2: great last night. All right, let's turn our attentions to

963
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 2: foreign affairs and to what's going on here with a Ran.

964
00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:59,279
Speaker 2: So let's start here. We had the memorandum of understanding.

965
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 2: We had a sea that's obviously falling apart. The President

966
00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:05,359
Speaker 2: says there is no cease fire. He also says there's

967
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,759
Speaker 2: still talks going on, and now he said today that

968
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 2: Iran still maybe wants to talk about making a deal.

969
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know.

970
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:17,280
Speaker 2: I've been skeptical of how you deal with the Iranians

971
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 2: through any means other than military strength from the beginning,

972
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 2: although I have supported the President and the administration trying

973
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 2: to pursue diplomacy, even though I expected the Iranians to

974
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:33,640
Speaker 2: sort of bite the hands here at the negotiating table.

975
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 2: Where do you see things right now, Mike, I mean,

976
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 2: where do you see the president's position? And what do

977
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 2: you think ought to happen next?

978
00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 8: I think.

979
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 16: I think the President has had it with the Iranians.

980
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:51,160
Speaker 16: He tried this MoU, which you know, I thought was

981
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:56,440
Speaker 16: far too favorable to Iran, but he gave it a shot,

982
00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 16: and the Iranians just kept violating the deal. The whole

983
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:04,040
Speaker 16: point of the MU was to allow freedom and navigation,

984
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 16: and they violate. If I may for a second, you know,

985
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 16: there's this old story where a scorpion asks a frog

986
00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 16: to carry him over a river there's scorpions.

987
00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 8: The frogs says, why you're gonna Why would I do that?

988
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 16: You're gonna You're gonna sting me, And the scorpion says, no,

989
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 16: you know, if I sting you, we're both going to drown.

990
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:25,200
Speaker 16: So the frog does it, and when they're going across

991
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:28,439
Speaker 16: the river, the scorpion stings the frog, and the frog says,

992
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 16: why do you do that? And uh, the scorpions says,

993
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 16: because I'm a scorpion. And I think that's kind of

994
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 16: the way it is with the Iranians. They can't help

995
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:39,880
Speaker 16: but violate any agreement they say they're going to observe,

996
00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 16: and they're not gonna stop and attacking these ships. And

997
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:51,600
Speaker 16: I think I give Trump credit for recognizing that what

998
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:53,880
Speaker 16: the Iranians are, and that he gave it a shot

999
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,880
Speaker 16: and they violated it and he's trying to clear the

1000
00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 16: straits now. That Yeah, So I think that's kind of

1001
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 16: where we are. So I think we just keep going

1002
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:03,760
Speaker 16: back and forth for now.

1003
00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:08,240
Speaker 2: Now the President Mike has said that the United States

1004
00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 2: is reinstating the naval blockade on Iran and that will

1005
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 2: prevent any ships from leaving or entering Iranian ports, and

1006
00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:21,120
Speaker 2: that goes into effect today this very afternoon at four

1007
00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:24,520
Speaker 2: o'clock Eastern time. I think the naval blockade initially was

1008
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:25,920
Speaker 2: a very successful strategy.

1009
00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 3: We're going to go back to that. Is that the

1010
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:28,520
Speaker 3: right call at this moment?

1011
00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 2: Oh?

1012
00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:36,120
Speaker 8: Have we lost my right thing?

1013
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,440
Speaker 16: And installing it? I just think we have to temper

1014
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,720
Speaker 16: our expectations. I think, Ron, are you hear me?

1015
00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 8: Okay, yeah, go ahead.

1016
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,280
Speaker 2: We had a brief interruption and I was just asking

1017
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,160
Speaker 2: you if you thought the blockade was the correct was

1018
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 2: the right call?

1019
00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:51,600
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1020
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think it is the right call. I just

1021
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:59,080
Speaker 16: think we have to temper our expectations of what it

1022
00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:02,880
Speaker 16: could achieve. I think it's the right thing to do,

1023
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 16: and we just got to keep pressuring the regime. But

1024
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 16: I don't think we should expect that it's going to

1025
01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 16: solve the problem, because I think the regime ultimately just

1026
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 16: cares about the survival of the regime and they don't

1027
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 16: ultimately care about how much oil revenue they're going to have.

1028
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 16: So I think it's good to do it, but I

1029
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 16: don't think it's ultimately going to solve the problem. And

1030
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 16: I think part of the problem is is that we

1031
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:33,720
Speaker 16: led the Iranians to believe that they won this war,

1032
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 16: so they feel very emboldened. And I think the only

1033
01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:39,440
Speaker 16: way we're really going to change things is if they

1034
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,400
Speaker 16: feel they're going to be that they're losing.

1035
01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 2: Well, certainly they've gotten that message from Democrats and the

1036
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 2: American media.

1037
01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 3: They keep saying every day that somehow Iran has won

1038
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 3: the war.

1039
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,360
Speaker 2: Despite the fact that their military has been decimated and

1040
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:56,919
Speaker 2: the nuclear stock piles at the bottom of rubble, et cetera,

1041
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 2: et cetera.

1042
01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 3: But we can discuss that another day.

1043
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about Israel's position in

1044
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:05,200
Speaker 2: all of this. Obviously, Israel and the United States are

1045
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:07,560
Speaker 2: allied here, but Israel's the one that's got to live

1046
01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 2: with us in their backyard. They're also the ones that

1047
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:13,920
Speaker 2: have been on the front lines fighting off all the

1048
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:17,960
Speaker 2: Iranian terror proxies. Do you think this whole process here

1049
01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:21,600
Speaker 2: with the US Israel alliance has put Israel in a

1050
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:26,280
Speaker 2: stronger position as it relates to its own national security

1051
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:29,080
Speaker 2: visa VIDs Iranian terror proxies.

1052
01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:34,320
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think, look the beginning, I think the Israelis

1053
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:38,680
Speaker 16: deserve most of the credit. Of course, once they suffered

1054
01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 16: the tremendous failure and defeat of October seventh, they've you know,

1055
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:49,440
Speaker 16: slowly but surely have really decimated Iranian proxies. As Bola

1056
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:53,240
Speaker 16: is not out, but they've certainly severely weakened. Maybe they

1057
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 16: have five or ten percent of the missiles and rockets

1058
01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 16: that they had before October seventh. Hamas is pretty much decimated.

1059
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 16: They controlled parts of Gaza, but they don't really pose

1060
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 16: a threat anymore, at least right now to Israel the

1061
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:13,440
Speaker 16: way they did before. The Huthis are another story. But

1062
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:17,040
Speaker 16: obviously the United States and Israel working together, what they

1063
01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:19,280
Speaker 16: were able to do to hit sort of what they

1064
01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 16: call like the head of the octopus.

1065
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 8: What they did last.

1066
01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:26,840
Speaker 16: Summer in the Twelve Day War, the United States coming

1067
01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:30,640
Speaker 16: in with Midnight Hammer and then working shoulder to shoulder

1068
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,920
Speaker 16: in this war I think has been tremendous for Israel,

1069
01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 16: but also for the United States. I mean, imagine what

1070
01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:40,560
Speaker 16: other ally since World War Two has really worked with

1071
01:02:40,680 --> 01:02:44,840
Speaker 16: us almost on par in the military campaign like the

1072
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:49,280
Speaker 16: Israelis have. So I think it's a relationship that's incredibly

1073
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:52,880
Speaker 16: beneficial to both sides. And what I'd like to see

1074
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:56,600
Speaker 16: going forward is even though while Israel's becoming so politically

1075
01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 16: controversial to politically militarily, I think through relationship is fantastic

1076
01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 16: and I would like to see America even more I think,

1077
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:07,760
Speaker 16: and I think we're going to see it, probably put

1078
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:12,360
Speaker 16: more of our military assets more permanently stationed in Israel.

1079
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,800
Speaker 8: I'd hope that's going to happen. I think that's.

1080
01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:16,600
Speaker 16: Kind of where we're going because this was like the

1081
01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 16: only country in the region that gives America American military

1082
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,800
Speaker 16: assets complete freedom of action, and they're far away from

1083
01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:29,240
Speaker 16: Iran where they could be defended, but they're still close

1084
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:33,800
Speaker 16: enough that Israel could be used as a launching a point.

1085
01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:35,040
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1086
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 2: Mike Mkowsky as our guest. He is a former Pentagon official.

1087
01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:41,840
Speaker 2: He previously served in the Office of the Secretary of Defense.

1088
01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:45,680
Speaker 2: He's president and CEO of the Jewish Institute for National

1089
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 2: Security of America. On top of the military cooperation we saw, Mike,

1090
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,720
Speaker 2: something happened just the other day when President Trump was

1091
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:57,680
Speaker 2: in Turkey for the NATO meetings. The Israeli intelligence forces

1092
01:03:57,840 --> 01:04:03,080
Speaker 2: gave our government intelligence that help them get away from

1093
01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:09,560
Speaker 2: or thwart a planned assassination attempt by Iran on our president.

1094
01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 2: When you consider the level of cooperation militarily and via

1095
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,640
Speaker 2: our intelligence agencies, I'm going to.

1096
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:16,880
Speaker 3: Raise this because you raised it.

1097
01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 2: How surprising has it been for you to see the

1098
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:23,560
Speaker 2: politics of Israel, you know, fall out the way it has,

1099
01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:26,800
Speaker 2: particularly on the Democratic side. You know, you do have

1100
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:30,680
Speaker 2: some frame I think of support for Israel on the right,

1101
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,680
Speaker 2: but in the Democratic Party right now, you couldn't run

1102
01:04:33,720 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 2: for president in twenty twenty eight and say I think

1103
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 2: we should have a strong alliance with Israel. You'd be

1104
01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:40,840
Speaker 2: thrown out of any debate or any Democratic Party dinner

1105
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:41,400
Speaker 2: if you said that.

1106
01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 3: What do you make of all that.

1107
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's really frustrated.

1108
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:47,720
Speaker 16: Look what we just saw on the last couple of

1109
01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:52,840
Speaker 16: days with ro Kahana, you know, kind of creating the spectacle.

1110
01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:57,960
Speaker 16: He just kind of fabricated a sort of confrontation with Israel,

1111
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:03,120
Speaker 16: you know, because he trying to apparently, you know, strengthen

1112
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:06,919
Speaker 16: his bona fides with Democratic primary voters so we could

1113
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,680
Speaker 16: run for president. And then we saw with a more

1114
01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:14,960
Speaker 16: definitely pro Israel democrat and Ram Emmanuel went to Israel

1115
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 16: last week to kind of lecture the Israelis. So I

1116
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:22,320
Speaker 16: think Israel's being used as a prop It's very disappointing because,

1117
01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:26,760
Speaker 16: as I said, the military relationship is unprecedented, the intelligence cooperation,

1118
01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:31,680
Speaker 16: the military coatration is fantastic, and it's just very disappointing

1119
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:33,000
Speaker 16: to see this.

1120
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:35,280
Speaker 8: I think, Look, there are are.

1121
01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,760
Speaker 16: Several reasons for it, but you know, one of the

1122
01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 16: reasons is that I think it's I see it also

1123
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:43,880
Speaker 16: in the context not just about Israel, but it's about America.

1124
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 16: And unfortunately we see this on the farther left, particularly

1125
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:52,280
Speaker 16: on the on the socialist side, the DSA types, they're

1126
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:55,640
Speaker 16: anti American, and I think that's part of this here

1127
01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:58,560
Speaker 16: is that it's not just about Israel, but it's also

1128
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 16: about America. If your critician in Israel like this, I

1129
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:03,680
Speaker 16: think it also says something, how you look at the

1130
01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:05,800
Speaker 16: United States, Well.

1131
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree with you more. I think it has

1132
01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:09,560
Speaker 2: to do with the future of America. I think it

1133
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,360
Speaker 2: has to do with the future of Western civilization. And

1134
01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:16,840
Speaker 2: I think these Democratic socialists, you know, they've they've admitted

1135
01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:20,080
Speaker 2: as much their their goal here is to upend America

1136
01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:22,680
Speaker 2: from the inside, and to upend really, you know, the

1137
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:27,720
Speaker 2: tenets of Western civilization that goes back to Jerusalem, Athens, Rome.

1138
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 2: That's where the way our culture work, that's where our

1139
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:34,880
Speaker 2: civilization comes from. And they are attempting to upend really

1140
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 2: thousands of years of US building this Western civilization culture,

1141
01:06:38,600 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 2: and they're trying to do it through the American political system.

1142
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:42,080
Speaker 3: Let's hope they don't succeed.

1143
01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:46,560
Speaker 2: Mike Makowski is the President and CEO of the Jewish

1144
01:06:46,600 --> 01:06:51,560
Speaker 2: Institute for the National Security of America j I ns A. Mike,

1145
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 2: We'll see how the situation unfalls, and we'll have you back.

1146
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:58,000
Speaker 8: Great. Thank you very much, great to see and have

1147
01:06:58,080 --> 01:06:58,760
Speaker 8: a great week.

1148
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,440
Speaker 3: Thank you, sir, and go cardinals.

1149
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:03,840
Speaker 2: All right, if you're sixty four or older, you got

1150
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:06,760
Speaker 2: to be careful who you trust for Medicare advice, and

1151
01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:07,640
Speaker 2: we have to be honest.

1152
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:08,880
Speaker 3: The system's a total mess.

1153
01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 2: My own parents have seen firsthand how easy it is

1154
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:15,200
Speaker 2: to get steered into decisions that aren't really actually the

1155
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 2: best fit. That's why I like Chapter. My mom just

1156
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 2: did a Medicare review with Chapters. She thought she was

1157
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:27,800
Speaker 2: already in a solid plan, nothing obviously wrong, but in

1158
01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:31,160
Speaker 2: under twenty minutes, the advisors at Chapter took a close

1159
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:34,040
Speaker 2: look and found the exact same plan for her, but

1160
01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:39,280
Speaker 2: six hundred dollars less per year, same coverage, same protection,

1161
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:42,680
Speaker 2: but money back in her pocket. Took less than twenty minutes.

1162
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 2: They don't work for the insurance companies. They work for you.

1163
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 2: If you're dealing with Medicare for yourself or for your

1164

Speaker 1: Stay with you, David the Leftist saying hamana, hamena. Yeah,

Speaker 1: this is the Scott Jennings Show.

1175
01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:28,720
Speaker 2: All right, home stretch here on Tuesday, July the fourteenth.

1176
01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:31,200
Speaker 2: Scott Jennings with you on Salem. What's going on here

1177
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:34,760
Speaker 2: on Capitol Hill? Let's see, Well, the Senate Republicans had

1178
01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:38,120
Speaker 2: their lunch today. I'm told by some reporting here from

1179
01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:42,880
Speaker 2: our trusted journalist Andrew Desiderio that the Senate Republican lunch

1180
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 2: was largely a memorial to the late Senator Lindsey Graham.

1181
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:50,439
Speaker 3: Marco Rubio was also there also.

1182
01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:56,000
Speaker 2: Andrew is reporting, and this is interesting that Senator Roger

1183
01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:59,960
Speaker 2: Wicker was very angry at the lunch today over Democrats

1184
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:05,639
Speaker 2: expected move to block the NDAA, that's the National Defense

1185
01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:10,880
Speaker 2: Authorization Act. Sounds pretty important because it is Democrats are

1186
01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:14,400
Speaker 2: planning to block it. Roger Wicker, according to the reporting,

1187
01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:16,080
Speaker 2: called it a new low. So we've got to keep

1188
01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:19,920
Speaker 2: our eye on the NDAA. Also up on Capitol Hill

1189
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:23,400
Speaker 2: the acting Attorney General, Todd Blanche, is moving through his

1190
01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:27,719
Speaker 2: confirmation process and seems to be doing pretty well. President

1191
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:29,960
Speaker 2: Trump has issued a statement the last little bit saying

1192
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:34,200
Speaker 2: Todd Blanche is doing a phenomenal job. Under Todd's leadership,

1193
01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:37,040
Speaker 2: murder is down to the lowest level since nineteen hundred.

1194
01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:40,599
Speaker 2: We just saw the biggest one year drop in recorded

1195
01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:44,000
Speaker 2: history and murders. In fact, violent crime arrests are up

1196
01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:48,519
Speaker 2: one hundred percent. Robbery's, carjackings, assault, it's all crashing. More

1197
01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:51,839
Speaker 2: than five hundred million deadly doses of drugs have been seized,

1198
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,840
Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. The statistics for Todd Blanch looked

1199
01:09:55,880 --> 01:10:00,000
Speaker 2: pretty good, and the confirmation process is skating along as well.

1200
01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:01,720
Speaker 3: Well. Also, some things have.

1201
01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:03,840
Speaker 2: Come across my desk in the last couple of days

1202
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:08,599
Speaker 2: from the state of Michigan, and I just you know,

1203
01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,800
Speaker 2: Michigan's interesting place, purple state. Big Senate race this year,

1204
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:15,320
Speaker 2: and they already have a senator who just got elected.

1205
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:19,599
Speaker 2: Her name is Alissa Slotkin. She beat Mike Rodgers, who's

1206
01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:22,519
Speaker 2: going to be the Republican this year. She beat him

1207
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:25,840
Speaker 2: in the last election. Well, she's out making some speeches.

1208
01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:30,280
Speaker 2: I want you to this is a purple state, and

1209
01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:34,360
Speaker 2: Alyssa Slotkin is one of these Democrats. They posit is

1210
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:37,559
Speaker 2: a moderate Democrat. Well's listened to Alyssa Slockin. This just

1211
01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:41,200
Speaker 2: came across the desk today. Here's cutting number six.

1212
01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:44,280
Speaker 17: But the place that I ran on the first time

1213
01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:47,760
Speaker 17: was a Republican drawing district. That feels a lot like

1214
01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:52,360
Speaker 17: kind of running in Indiana. We know of two, not one,

1215
01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:57,559
Speaker 17: but two fake book clubs, women who literally told their husbands, husband,

1216
01:10:57,680 --> 01:10:59,680
Speaker 17: I'm going off to book club and they would come

1217
01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 17: in fallolunteer at our office.

1218
01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:08,320
Speaker 2: That's Alyssa Slotkin speaking, I think at a political dinner

1219
01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:12,639
Speaker 2: in Indiana. You know this is made up, right, I've

1220
01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:17,960
Speaker 2: heard a version of this canard on CNN over the years,

1221
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:23,480
Speaker 2: that women were lying to their husbands, you know, elaborately

1222
01:11:23,520 --> 01:11:27,520
Speaker 2: creating fake book clubs, but secretly going out and engaging

1223
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:33,920
Speaker 2: in clandestine political activity. You know it's made up. But

1224
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:37,559
Speaker 2: she didn't stop there. Listen to what she said. This

1225
01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:41,240
Speaker 2: is Alyssa Slotkin about the Save America Act.

1226
01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:43,960
Speaker 3: Listen carefully. Cut seven.

1227
01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:47,120
Speaker 17: The other thing that we balked yesterday was the same act,

1228
01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:58,880
Speaker 17: right which I didn't allow this administration to rig of

1229
01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:01,840
Speaker 17: our democracy, that it would be hard for any Democrat

1230
01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:06,000
Speaker 17: in any state to win any election and disenfranchise all

1231
01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:07,280
Speaker 17: married women in the meantime.

1232
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:08,639
Speaker 1: By the way, and just you.

1233
01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:10,880
Speaker 3: Have to show your birth certificate at the polls if

1234
01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:11,760
Speaker 3: you have a married name.

1235
01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 2: Okay, that's a lie. Again they're making things up about

1236
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:21,080
Speaker 2: the Save Act. But the fact that Alissa Slotkin there

1237
01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:24,559
Speaker 2: said the Save Act would make it hard for any

1238
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:30,760
Speaker 2: Democrat in any state to win any election. It's kind

1239
01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:33,280
Speaker 2: of a tell, isn't it. What is the Save Act

1240
01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:37,600
Speaker 2: trying to do? Have you show voter ID so we

1241
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:40,400
Speaker 2: can see if you're actually eligible and registered to vote

1242
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:44,000
Speaker 2: in this election? And yes, they would like to ensure

1243
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:48,640
Speaker 2: that only American citizens can vote. That's the point of

1244
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:52,640
Speaker 2: the Save Act, Save America Act. The fact that a

1245
01:12:52,760 --> 01:13:00,600
Speaker 2: Democrat US senator is saying, if we have voter ID

1246
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:06,680
Speaker 2: and we ensure that only American citizens can vote, no

1247
01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:09,559
Speaker 2: Democrat can win an election in any state in the country.

1248
01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:16,160
Speaker 2: That was her message. Kind of a tell, kind of

1249
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:21,200
Speaker 2: a tell, kind of an honest moment from a Democrat.

1250
01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 2: I think, of course, you hear the Democrats in that

1251
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:28,200
Speaker 2: room hoop begin hollering they make up these lies about

1252
01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 2: you know, married women.

1253
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:31,439
Speaker 3: Won't be able to vote anymore.

1254
01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:33,320
Speaker 2: I mean, what they're saying to married women is you're

1255
01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:34,960
Speaker 2: too stupid to figure out how to vote.

1256
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 3: So that's that.

1257
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,600
Speaker 2: Hope you take note of that, but pretty telling the

1258
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:44,439
Speaker 2: Save Act, voter ID and ensuring citizenship would make it

1259
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:45,680
Speaker 2: hard for Democrats to win.

1260
01:13:46,360 --> 01:13:47,960
Speaker 3: I bet you'd like to have that one back.

1261
01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:50,679
Speaker 2: We're done for the day, See you tomorrow, Scott Jennings

1262
01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:51,360
Speaker 2: on Salem.

1263
01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:52,240
Speaker 3: Thanks for listening.
