Before we get started tonight, just 4 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 2: want to start with a couple of videos. See what's 5 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 2: going on out there, See what we got here? We go. 6 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 3: And everybody who was like, oh, Rachel, you and the 7 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 3: Russia stuff, like, isn't that really isn't that a little 8 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 3: over the top? Like how what do you what do 9 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 3: you mean that? Donald Trump and Russia? I'm sorry, We 10 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 3: now have a white House that works for the for 11 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,959 Speaker 3: the Kremlin, and they're not even they're not even hiding it. 12 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 3: They're not even hiding it anymore. 13 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 2: Okay, I have a lot of thoughts. How long do 14 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: we have for this this video? First of all, what 15 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: is Rachel Matto wearing? Are is that a that's that's 16 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 2: what you chose to wear? It's like a snuggie or 17 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 2: I don't know what she's got on there, a blanket 18 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 2: perhaps on her. The other individual in that video is 19 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 2: Jamie Harrison. He was the chairman of the DNC while 20 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 2: I was the co chair of the RNC, and I 21 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:19,119 Speaker 2: vividly remember Jamie laughing about me becoming the co chair, 22 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 2: being voted into that position. By the members of the 23 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 2: Republican National Committee and saying that we were going to lose, 24 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 2: that we weren't going to be able to fundraise that. 25 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 2: What did I know about anything? Well, Jamie, how did 26 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 2: it work out? I'll wait for you to respond to that. 27 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 2: The other part of that video is perhaps the most 28 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 2: crazy thing I've ever heard. They're still trying I hope 29 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 2: everybody understood what was going on there, still trying to 30 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 2: push the Russia collusion hoax. How is this White House 31 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: Rachel working for the Kremlin? And Jamie, can anybody explain 32 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: that to me? I recall the Hillary Clinton campaign actually 33 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 2: colluding to sway an election with Russia. Steve dossier, the 34 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: email is back and forth, the interference of our federal 35 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 2: law enforcement agencies to prop that up and to kind 36 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: of push it out there as a narrative. When are 37 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: you guys talking about that? When are we going to 38 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 2: go down that path? No one from the Trump campaign, 39 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 2: donald Trump himself, no one in our family ever colluded 40 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 2: with Russia. And you know how we know? There was 41 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: the Mueller investigation, tens of millions of dollars, two years 42 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: of an investigation, and a waste of so much effort 43 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: to show what there was no collusion. These people are crazy. 44 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 2: These people are delusional, and they have absolutely no idea 45 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: what to do with themselves. Because Donald Trump is delivering 46 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 2: for the American people. He's actually doing the things he 47 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 2: said he was going to do when he got into 48 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 2: the White House. They don't know how to handle it. 49 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 4: Jamie. 50 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 2: I'm still waiting for the apology from you, so I'll 51 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: be here. You know where to find me. 52 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 5: I don't know what to do. We should do whatever 53 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 5: you want to read a brook watch nighttime talk shows. 54 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 5: You don't like the view or something? 55 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 4: What's the view? 56 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 5: A bunch of pissed off millionaires mentioned about how much 57 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 5: they hate millionaires, trump Man and everybody else. They got 58 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 5: to be up there ass about it's pretty funny. Film 59 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 5: sound funny? I joke FI, It's like park Church by you. 60 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 5: That's no sound funny either. It depends on your proximity 61 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 5: to the fart. 62 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: I mean, if I had to, uh, if I were 63 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: pushed to say, what I would associate with the view. 64 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: Maybe it is flatulence. Maybe it is that that's that's 65 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: pretty solid. That's how you know things are changing right there. 66 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 2: Whenever you have on a kind of mainstream TV show 67 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 2: like that knocking the View. I mean, the View has 68 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: been around forever, right. It used to be something that 69 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: people would tune into and say like, oh, maybe we 70 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: can kind of get a hot take on. Now you 71 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 2: don't do that anymore. The people who tune into the 72 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 2: View tune in because they're miserable and they want to 73 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 2: see other miserable people just kind of dump on Donald 74 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 2: Trump and Republicans and the country as much as they 75 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 2: possibly can. But yeah, that's pretty much it. That's exactly 76 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 2: how I would describe them. The fact that that is 77 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 2: out on a mainstream platform of any variety, and that's 78 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 2: on a pretty standard show these days. Maybe it shows 79 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 2: you the tide is changing. Maybe it shows you that 80 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: somebody out there somewhere is getting it. Half the country 81 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 2: is conservative, if not more. We know that the people 82 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: in every possible state in America moved to the right 83 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: this past election. So I don't know, maybe they're starting 84 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 2: to get it, And you know what, that's okay with me. 85 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 6: And the most common form of gender firming care for 86 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 6: young people is medications that simply pause puberty and have 87 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 6: been used safely for decades. 88 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 7: So why do my colleagues across the aisle. 89 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 6: So called limited government people suddenly want government to get 90 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 6: in the way of the decisions that parents and their 91 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 6: kids make together. Why did they want to stop children 92 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 6: from getting medical care that has been proven to be 93 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 6: safe and effective and helps them to live happily, helps 94 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 6: them to. 95 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 4: Live, just live. 96 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 2: Why do they want why would we possibly want to 97 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 2: stop this? First of all, nothing is safe and effective 98 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 2: about any of these things. You take these drugs, you 99 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 2: may end up Sari one day, you may end up 100 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 2: I mean, we don't even know the long term effects 101 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: of these. We want to give these to kids. You 102 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: want to give these drugs that have a huge impact 103 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 2: on their growth, on their development, on their future to kids. 104 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 2: You know, my kids come up to me sometimes and 105 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 2: they tell my daughter wants to be an elf on 106 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 2: the shelf, Like she literally is, like, I'm an elf 107 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: on the shelf. We got one named Winter that things 108 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 2: had a couple of different names. Now can't wait for 109 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 2: that one to go away for the season and not 110 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 2: come back for a very long time. But nonetheless, day 111 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 2: to day they change what they're doing. My son was 112 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: a diehard Kansas City Chiefs fan. Now he tells me 113 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: he's rooting for the Jaguars all of a sudden, like 114 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 2: what's going on. Kids don't have the ability to make 115 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: these decisions, okay, And the point that I think Republicans 116 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: have had is that we should never be offering medication 117 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 2: or procedures to kids that it will permanently damage them. 118 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 2: They don't have the brain capacity to make this decision. 119 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 2: They don't even know what they want themselves. I can 120 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 2: see at a time in my life whenever I was 121 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: really into sports, all I wanted was to be a 122 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: football player. I used to go practice kicking a football 123 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,359 Speaker 2: because it's like, maybe I'll be a kid or on 124 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 2: a team had I been born twenty years later, I 125 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 2: could very clearly see how a teacher out there may 126 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: get me at a weak moment and say like, Hey, 127 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 2: if you feel like you want to be a football 128 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 2: player and you wish you were a boy, which I 129 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 2: used to say to my dad all the time, I 130 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 2: wish I'd have been born a boy, maybe you should 131 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 2: just go for it. Imagine I listened to those people. 132 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 2: Imagine I listened to this lunatic who wants to give 133 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: this stuff to our kids. No, this is something the 134 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: president feels very strongly about. This is something that a 135 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 2: lot of parents are terrified about. And you live in 136 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 2: the wrong state in America, and you have no say. 137 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 2: If your child goes to the school and says, this 138 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 2: is what I want to do, they don't need to 139 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 2: say anything to you. And if you try to stop 140 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: your child, they could be taken away from you from 141 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 2: with child protective Services. That's where we are in America, 142 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen. So let's make sure we start voting 143 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 2: people into office who don't say crazy things like this. 144 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 2: Let's make sure we start putting people in office who 145 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 2: actually care about our kids and don't want to destroy 146 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: their future, which all of this nonsense we'll do all right. Tonight, 147 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: we're joined by former RNC national spokesperson Elizabeth Pipco, as 148 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 2: well as editor at large for The Washington Times Alex Swoyer. 149 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: Alex and Elizabeth tis the season. Welcome to the show. 150 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what the gift that kind of keeps 151 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 2: on giving in terms of just full blown chaos is 152 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 2: the state of Minnesota. Man, it is a disaster over there. Liz. 153 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 2: We thought that it was like a billion dollars that 154 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: was stolen in this kind of fraud, this medicaid medicare 155 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 2: fraud that was perpetrated on the people of Minnesota via 156 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 2: a largely Somali population there. It turns out it's closer 157 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 2: to nine billion dollars nine billion. That's crazy. And the 158 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: crazy part to me is that this money didn't just 159 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 2: stay there in Minnesota. It's not like these people some 160 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: of it did. We're getting themselves cars and all kinds 161 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 2: of things with a trips, this, that, and the other. 162 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: A lot of this money got sent overseas, back to Somalia, 163 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: back to a terrorist organization, al Shabab. That is a 164 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: big problem for the people of this country. Not only 165 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 2: do we not like people stealing from us, we certainly 166 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 2: don't like them stealing from us and then sending money 167 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 2: to terrorists. That's a big problem. President Trump said that 168 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: Minnesota was a hub of fraudulent money laundering activity. And 169 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 2: I thought it was interesting too, because whenever you listen 170 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: to the first assistant US Attorney there, he seems to 171 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 2: think that this is even bigger than what we know 172 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 2: right now. He says, I don't make these generalizations in 173 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 2: a hasty way. When I say significant amount, I'm talking 174 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 2: on the order of half or more. What he's talking 175 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 2: about is that there have been eighteen billion dollars in 176 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 2: Medicare claims or Medicaid claims in the state of Minnesota 177 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 2: since twenty eighteen. He believes that half or more Liz 178 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 2: were fraudulent, meaning these people are just We're just running 179 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 2: a whole, full blown scam. He says the magnitude of 180 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: front of Minnesota cannot be overstated. It's staggering amounts of 181 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: money that have been lost. He sees red claim red 182 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 2: flags all over the claims that he's looked at already. 183 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to get much better. I 184 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 2: think he's going to continue getting worse. 185 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 8: Liz. 186 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 2: Tim Walls, huh. 187 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 4: Poor a tampon, Tim. 188 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 7: I mean, all I can think about is thank God, 189 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 7: obviously for President Trump, for Jadevans. 190 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 4: I mean, this man was. 191 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 7: So close, or at least people thought he was so 192 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 7: close to that Oval office, and now we're realizing that 193 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 7: he was probably one of the worst VP picks, I think, 194 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 7: in American political history, and also realizing what goes on 195 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 7: in our country when there's like just a tiny bit 196 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 7: of a spotlight placed on this, I'm sure it does 197 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 7: not you know, stop in Minnesota. I'm sure this is 198 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 7: going on everywhere, and I'm also sure of that mostly 199 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,599 Speaker 7: because of the response to this. Right, you and I 200 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 7: are talking about it. I've obviously seen Fox covering it, 201 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 7: but most people aren't talking about it. I know a 202 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 7: lot of folks who haven't even heard about this scandal. 203 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 4: And that's the problem. 204 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 7: Right, No one wants to report on it because it 205 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 7: makes Democrats look bad, It makes Tim Wallas look bad, 206 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 7: it makes Minnesota, of course look bad. But this should 207 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 7: be breaking news everywhere until we get to the bottom 208 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 7: of what happened and make sure it never happens again. 209 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 7: Like you said, the money was not just spent illegally here. 210 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 7: It was sent to literal terrorists, right, sent to those 211 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 7: that want to deshow Americans stand against everything that we 212 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 7: stand for. Those are American tax dollars that were sent 213 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 7: overseas and a huge scandal. It should be one of 214 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 7: the biggest political scandals of this last decade. Meanwhile, there 215 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 7: are people who haven't even heard about it because all 216 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 7: they hear is bad things about President Trump. So I 217 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 7: just wish more people spoke about it. I know that 218 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 7: we know what the media stands for at this point, 219 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 7: and how hypocritical they are. 220 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 4: But you would think when something like. 221 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 7: This breaks that you would want to use the opportunity 222 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 7: to show that you aren't a hypocrite and report on 223 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 7: the mistakes that even democrats, yes, democrats, have made in 224 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 7: our country. But again, thank god for the good people 225 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 7: reporting on it, and thank god people are realizing that 226 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 7: this is happening in front of our own eyes and 227 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 7: at least trying to put a stop to it. 228 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and obviously this is this encompasses Medicare and Medicaid 229 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: alex And the interesting thing is from that perspective there 230 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 2: the centers for Medicare and Medicaid are actually saying, look, 231 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 2: we're trying to get some of this money back. Like 232 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 2: I know, they think it's just gone. We're trying to 233 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 2: get it back. Whenever the whenever you come over from 234 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 2: another country, you often have to have a sponsor or 235 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 2: someone here who kind of vouches for you, an American 236 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 2: citizen who says like, Yeah, these are good people, this 237 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 2: is a good person, this would be a great fit 238 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: to come to the state of Minnesota. I can vouch 239 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 2: for their character, I can vouch for their work ethic. 240 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 2: They're going to fit in great in this country. We 241 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 2: want to have these people here. So at the centers 242 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,479 Speaker 2: for Medicare and Medicaid, they're saying, where are those Americans 243 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 2: who vouch for these people because they weren't so great 244 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,599 Speaker 2: and somebody owes a lot of money back to the taxpayers. 245 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,719 Speaker 2: Here's what doctor Oz, who's the administrator for Medicare and 246 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 2: Medicaid said. He said, if we're unsatisfied with the states' 247 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: plans or cooperation, we'll stop paying the federal share of 248 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 2: these programs. The message to Walls is clear, either fix 249 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 2: this in sixty days or start looking under your couch 250 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 2: for spare change, because we're done putting the bill for 251 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 2: your incompetence. Not only are they on the Americans who 252 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 2: vouch for these people to come here, these largely Somali 253 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 2: populations that's wrapped up in this, they're also looking at 254 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 2: Tim Walls, Alex and they're saying, you got to figure 255 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: out what happened here and how we're going to get 256 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 2: this money back. 257 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 9: Well to both of your points, Laura and Elizabeth, you 258 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 9: both hit on why the media isn't covering this. First, 259 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 9: we talked about how it makes Democrats look bad. But 260 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 9: Laura you just went into. It also talks about the 261 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 9: issues with our immigration system, right, that's a big topic. 262 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 9: So reporters they should be digging into this. There could 263 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 9: be a various angles they could be exploring. But you know, 264 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 9: because it does touch immigration and the Somali population, I'm 265 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 9: not sure if we're going to get a fair shake 266 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 9: from you know, MSNBC or. 267 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:57,719 Speaker 8: Whatever, Okay, And. 268 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 9: I guess I don't want it, So I don't know. 269 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 9: I think it's has been not a now. But one 270 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 9: of the things I was going to also mention is 271 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 9: when we first started learning about this, if you recall, 272 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 9: I think there was dozens of whistleblowers, dozens of like 273 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 9: state employees who had come forward about this, raising concerns, 274 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 9: and that had been put at BAY. I think we're 275 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 9: getting at a point now with the number you mentioned, 276 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 9: nine billion. I think the US attorney even said, like 277 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 9: quote staggering amounts, even expects that to go higher, that 278 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 9: there needs to be some criminal liability at the top. 279 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 8: What happened? 280 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 9: Who was did somebody know about this and was hiding it? 281 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 9: I think those are legitimate questions that a good reporter 282 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 9: would be asking and pushing forward and hopefully we'll have 283 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 9: some accountability. I'm a little nervous about doctor Oz's sixty 284 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 9: day deadline. I'm not sure the state will be able 285 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 9: to put to meet that sixty day requirement. It should, 286 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 9: but given the rampant amount of fraud, I'm not sure 287 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 9: that that's realistic, especially because it's Walls is the one 288 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 9: who added appointed. I guess I should call a director 289 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 9: of program integrity. So do we trust him to be 290 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 9: the one to appoint some director of integrity that's going 291 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 9: to come forward and be able to give the Feds 292 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 9: these reports? 293 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 8: I don't think so. I think that there. 294 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 9: Needs to be someone from the outside coming in. 295 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 2: Well, I agree that there's more to this than just 296 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 2: the fraud. This is also an immigration issue, and you're right, 297 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: that's why the mainstream folks out there don't want to 298 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 2: talk about this because it backs up what President Trump 299 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 2: has said, by the way, all the way since back 300 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: in like twenty seventeen, when you have these diversity visa 301 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 2: programs where there was this lottery to bring people here 302 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 2: to America from various countries, Liz, where maybe we didn't 303 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 2: get a lot of immigrants from those countries and we 304 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: just sought them out to diversify our immigrant population. How stupid? 305 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 2: Who cares? How about this? Let's give people to come 306 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 2: to America who want to come here and contribute to 307 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: our society, who want to come here and pursue their 308 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 2: version of the American dream. Who gives a crap? Quite frankly, 309 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: where these people are from, if they want to come here, 310 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 2: they're welcome to come here and apply like everyone else does, 311 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 2: to become a United States citizen and to come into America. 312 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: But all the way back in twenty seventeen, President Trump 313 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 2: was calling this out and saying like, hey, I don't know, 314 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if we want to continue this program. 315 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 2: I don't believe in this. This is a great example 316 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 2: of what happens when you don't bring the best and 317 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: the brightest into the United States of America. Instead you 318 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 2: go for some dei program that led itself down this 319 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 2: path where you have again this huge and no one 320 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 2: would say it. Oh, the Somali population. Guess what it was, 321 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: the Somali population there in Minnesota who perpetrated most of 322 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 2: this nine billion, probably plus dollars that were defrauded from 323 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 2: taxpayers here in America. That's a big problem. We have 324 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: to start talking about the root of these problems. Otherwise 325 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 2: we're just kind of skimming the surface on it. 326 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 7: Liz are and I think the problem is, as you 327 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 7: both hit on, people are genuinely afraid of this topic 328 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 7: because they they know that, you know, they sound like 329 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 7: common sense Republicans if they start telling the truth. And 330 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 7: you mentioned twenty seventeen. Of course President Trumphy first got 331 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 7: in was able to see just how bad this was. 332 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 7: But he talked about it in twenty fifteen when he 333 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 7: announced that's when they started calling him every name in 334 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 7: the book, when all he said was they're not sending 335 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 7: their best, and the reality is they're not. They're sending 336 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 7: those that want to take advantage of our country. There 337 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 7: are so many people that come here obviously wanting to 338 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 7: be proud Americans, wanting to work their butts off, wanting 339 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 7: to become you know, that American dream. My own two 340 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 7: parents came here the right way and fought tooth and 341 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 7: nail to give me the life that I have right now. 342 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 7: And they're embarrassed by those that come here the wrong way. 343 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 7: They're embarrassed by Democrats who cover for those people. They 344 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 7: want everyone to come here correctly and for nobody, let 345 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 7: alone foreigners to come and take advantage of our great system. 346 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 7: So I think the reality is Donald Trump said it 347 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 7: in twenty fifteen. The world turned on him then, but 348 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 7: every common sense Americans that hey, this is actually exactly 349 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 7: what we're worried about. This is what we need. And 350 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 7: how dare you Democrat or Republican want to put somebody 351 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 7: else before a legal American citizen or someone who came 352 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 7: here the right way to try and become one. 353 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 4: So again, thank. 354 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 7: God for the President, but thank God also for just 355 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,199 Speaker 7: common sense Americans who want people to come here, who 356 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 7: love when people come here the right way, but who 357 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 7: want people that want to be here and have no 358 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 7: interest in treating our system poorly, taking advantage of the 359 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 7: American people, wasting American tax dollars, or even worse, sending 360 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 7: them to terrorist groups. 361 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's about That doesn't get much worse than that. 362 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 2: That's pretty bad when when you go in on that path, 363 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 2: just in the same area of the country. Remember the Milwaukee, 364 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 2: Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan who back last spring was helping 365 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: an illegal immigrant. She basically was obstructing ice. And she's 366 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 2: a judge who you got video of her kind of 367 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 2: like helping this guy out in like escaping from being 368 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: arrested essentially, Alex by Ice, Well, she's been found guilty 369 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: of obstructing Immigration and Customs enforcement agents during that incident 370 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 2: where they were trying to serve a warrant at the courthouse. 371 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 2: But of course she attempted, like I said, to help 372 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 2: this illegal immigrant out. I mean, you're a judge, You're 373 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 2: supposed to apply the law. It's just it's outrageous. It's crazy. 374 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 2: She's found guilty by a jury and is now facing 375 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 2: up to five years in prison on account of felony obstruction. 376 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 2: And it was an only a six hour deliberation of 377 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 2: the jury, Alex, it took to figure this out that 378 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: they were gonna say, yeah, you're definitely guilty of this. 379 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 2: This this one to a lot of us when we 380 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 2: saw this, Alex was like, I mean, it was just crazy. 381 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 2: Where have we come in America? Where you, as a judge, 382 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: is a person who's supposed to enforce the laws, are 383 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: helping someone forward the law just just flagrantly doing it. 384 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess good news is she's gonna be 385 00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: you know, she's not guilty. She's gonna have to serve 386 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 2: some time for it. 387 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 8: And hopefully lose her judge ship. 388 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 5: Right. 389 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 9: I don't know how you can go to prison or 390 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 9: go to jail and not and stay on the bench. 391 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 9: But we'll see what happens with her. I think there's 392 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 9: a couple things to note. You said a quick six 393 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 9: hour deliberation. I'm thinking, did it really take them six 394 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 9: hours to like? 395 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 4: What come on? 396 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 8: It's pretty obvious to what happened. So there's that. 397 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 9: The other aspect of this is we're putting we're seeing 398 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 9: a judge put a criminal, illegal alien ahead of US citizens, 399 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 9: but also to that point, a domestic abuser charged with 400 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 9: strangulation suffocation of our fellow Americans. 401 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 8: That's a problem, right. 402 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 9: These are is a felony to come into this country illegally, 403 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 9: But when you also have someone who's violent, who has 404 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 9: a violent passed, why would anyone Democrat, Republican judge or 405 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 9: not want them to stay in this country or evade arrest. 406 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 9: It's sincerely teds to an extreme. And what we're seeing 407 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 9: here is it's great that this judge is being held 408 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 9: accountable because I hope the same is done with the 409 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 9: new Jersey lawmaker who rushed the Ice facility who was 410 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 9: facing charges I believe still pending. We've seen a thousand 411 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 9: plus percent attacks on our ice agents. It's time that 412 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 9: we see this type of sentence across all media platforms. 413 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 9: So people get the idea that you will be held 414 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 9: to account, no matter who you are, if you assault 415 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 9: federal agents trying to do their job. And so I 416 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 9: think that's one of the most important takeaways from this. Also, 417 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 9: it should be a warning to other judges out there, 418 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 9: which Laura, your family is no you knows you're well 419 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 9: aware of these activist judges across the board, whether it's 420 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 9: personal or what they've done to the administration. Judge Boseburg 421 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 9: comes to mind with some of his orders, and so 422 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 9: I think this is great to see a judge held 423 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 9: to account. I'm curious if we're going to see lawmakers 424 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 9: in Congress do anything with some of these federal judges 425 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 9: that have been, you know, having a dose with their 426 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 9: own tds, whether it's in orders or in their written opinions. 427 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 9: I have a story coming out soon about Reagan appointees. 428 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 9: Some of the things they've put in opinions are eyebrow raising, 429 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 9: taking democratic talking points about the rule of law and 430 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 9: somehow that gets in a judicial opinion. I think it's 431 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 9: alarming and there needs to be some accountability. 432 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 2: Wow, well, we'll definitely look out for that, Alex for sure. 433 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: You know, in my mind was this judge and those 434 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 2: you know, those activist judges sort of like Alex is 435 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 2: talking about, Judge Murshan comes to mind as well. We 436 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 2: might people might know that name as well. In my mind, 437 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: they feel like they're some kind of freedom fighter, like 438 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 2: they're standing up like history is going to look back 439 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 2: on them as you know, like some person who helped 440 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 2: right the wrongs of our society right now, you know, 441 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 2: the freedom fighters, and when history right, there's gonna be 442 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 2: a whole movie on this judge. These people are delusional. 443 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 2: You're breaking the law. The law of the land is 444 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 2: that if you come here and you come here improperly, 445 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 2: you're it's illegal. You broke our law and there has 446 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 2: to be accountability for that. And guess who holds you 447 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 2: to account. Immigration and Customs Enforcement does it. It's so funny, though, 448 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 2: because I feel like, once there's some space from this, 449 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 2: and once these people actually get a handle on their 450 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 2: life again and they stop their tds because look, Donald 451 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 2: Trump is not going to be president forever. I know 452 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: that the Democrats are gonna hate to hear that. They 453 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 2: think he's gonna hold on. He's just gonna hold up 454 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 2: in the White House and just like they'll have to 455 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 2: drag him out by his fingernails. That's not the case 456 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 2: when he leaves. What is their excuse going to be then, Liz, 457 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 2: like they're going to look back on this one day 458 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 2: and say, God, we look like such utter fools. I mean, 459 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 2: at least I believe they will for sure. 460 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 7: And by the way, it's not just Democrats. I'm also 461 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 7: sad that Donald Trump is not going to be president forever. 462 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 4: A lot of us are. But no, it's ridiculous. 463 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 7: I remember someone asking Major the first term, how I 464 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 7: feel about those that were like serving in the ADMIN 465 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 7: and coming out and speaking against Donald Trump and what 466 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 7: that must mean about what it takes to work for him, 467 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,719 Speaker 7: And I said, has nothing to do with him. It 468 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 7: has to do with this environment that the media has 469 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 7: created where they will actually turn you into an overnight 470 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 7: celebrity if you turn on Donald Trump. Never before that 471 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 7: have we seen anyone be rewarded for turning against the 472 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 7: president of the United States or an American administration. 473 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 4: The office of the. 474 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 7: President was respected, whether you voted for them or not, 475 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 7: whether it was George Bush or Barack Obama or anybody else. 476 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 7: You were not put on MS now or CNN or 477 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 7: anything else. You didn't get you know, you didn't get 478 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 7: book deals right away, nothing happened. If you turned against 479 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 7: the president, you were kind of just laughed at. And 480 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 7: now it's the opposite. You become an overnight celebrity. You're 481 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 7: welcome into Hollywood circles, you're welcome on television, you get 482 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 7: a little bit of a following, and like you said, 483 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 7: in a few years when Trump is out of office, 484 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 7: you realize now that really mattered, and you actually a 485 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 7: kind of a traitor to your own country, and you 486 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 7: know yourself actually for going against your previous positions because 487 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 7: you want to have a tiny bit of fame. So 488 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 7: I think it's just an environment we've never seen before. 489 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 7: And it's said that people at the highest levels of 490 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 7: authority in our country, like judges, can kind of become, 491 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 7: you know, a part of it as well and fall 492 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 7: for it too, and hope to get a few Twitter 493 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 7: followers out of it or a few pats on the back. 494 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 7: But that's kind of what's happened, and it's taken over, 495 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 7: and I just hope most people realize again, it's not 496 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 7: about Donald Trump or US.

Yeah, even the judges are not immune to 540 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 2: Trump derangement syndrome. They even have suffered from it. It's 541 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 2: really crazy. But speaking of the Democrats, you know, oftentimes, 542 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 2: if you are like a sports team, for example, and 543 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 2: you horribly lose a game, you go back Alex and 544 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,360 Speaker 2: you watch the footage from the game and you kind 545 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 2: of play by play dissect and do an autopsy of 546 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 2: sorts on that game, and you say, like, what went 547 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 2: wrong here? What plays could we have done better? Where 548 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: could we clean ourselves up? Where can we tighten it 549 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 2: up a little bit for the next game so that 550 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 2: maybe we don't go in and completely embarrass ourselves. So 551 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 2: the Democrats did this apparently for the twenty twenty four election. 552 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 2: Which man, did they need to do that? Because what 553 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 2: a complete and total disaster. And it's interesting because they 554 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 2: of course talked about it and they said, well, you know, 555 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 2: we're going to release this autopsy. We're going to figure 556 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 2: out what went wrong. Release the autopsy. And then Ken Martin, 557 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 2: the DNC chair, who previously said he would publicly release 558 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: the review of the twenty twenty four election, said in 559 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 2: a statement that the review was complete and the committee 560 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 2: was already putting our learnings into motion. They're saying now, 561 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 2: they're like, you know what, we actually don't need to 562 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: release that, and you know, we're not even going to 563 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 2: talk about it. We're just going to focus on winning. Well, 564 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 2: how do you do that, Alex If you can't even 565 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 2: talk about what went wrong? And I mean, maybe in 566 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 2: some cases, as Republicans we should celebrate this, but if 567 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 2: I were a Democrat voter, I'd be pretty perturbed by 568 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 2: the fact that the DNC is not going to talk 569 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 2: at all about what went wrong in twenty twenty four. 570 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 9: Yes, to your point, I think Democratic voters have some 571 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 9: frustration about this. But even beyond that, I think it 572 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 9: could be other fellow Democratic candidates that are looking to 573 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 9: possibly run in twenty twenty eight. I saw some reporting 574 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 9: that the idea of not releasing this report suggests that 575 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 9: there's a favor to Kamala Harris and if she decides 576 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 9: to run again that this does her a favor. I'm questioning, 577 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 9: you know. I guess the reporter in me is wondering 578 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 9: if we're going to get a leak of this autopsy report, 579 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 9: because you would think, just like any healthy organization, there 580 00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 9: would be some dissent about this decision, especially given the 581 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 9: fact that I think I read hundreds of Democratic voters 582 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 9: were interviewed for this across all fifty states. You would 583 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 9: think this would be something that they spent time and 584 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 9: money on if they would want to benefit from and 585 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 9: you utilize. But I guess that's what Democratic lawmakers do. 586 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 9: Democratic politicians, they like to waste the time and money, 587 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 9: so here we are again seeing them do it with 588 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 9: the autopsy report. To your point, I do think Republicans 589 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 9: benefit from this. It suggests to not only Democratic voters, 590 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 9: but independents Republicans that the Democratic Party is not willing 591 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 9: to address what went wrong. I think part of the 592 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 9: reason they're not wanting this out there is because it's 593 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 9: obvious common sense issues. Immigration, a lot of the LGBTQ issues, 594 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 9: you know, transgender athletes in girls' sports, and girls bathrooms 595 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 9: and schools, all of that. I think did not play 596 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 9: to their favor. And it's common sense, it's what Republicans 597 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 9: have been saying, and it would just you know, fuel 598 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 9: the right and let the American people know that Republicans. 599 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 8: Donald Trump was right. 600 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, we can't have that, cannot possibly have something like that, Liz. 601 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 2: As part of the review, this committee interviewed people across 602 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 2: all fifty states about issues with both the presidential and 603 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: down ballot races in twenty twenty four and any previous 604 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 2: structural challenges that were in place. The results included lessons 605 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 2: about organizing, communications, fundraising, and spending. Though the report found 606 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,959 Speaker 2: Democrats outspent Republicans at all levels. But we knew that 607 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: you and I were at the RNC. We knew that 608 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 2: they were spending boatloads of money. And now they're in 609 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 2: debt the DNC because of they're bad candidate and Kamala 610 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 2: Harris both of them, quite frankly, Joe and Kamala terrible candidates, 611 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 2: and them trying to sell something that the American people 612 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 2: were not interested in. They thought, let's just keep throwing 613 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 2: money at it and maybe it'll help, maybe it'll do something. 614 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 2: It's very clear if you go back and look that 615 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 2: the people I think of this country lost a lot 616 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 2: of faith in the entire process based on what happened 617 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four. They did not give their voters 618 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 2: a chance to vote for someone. They plugged in candidates, 619 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,719 Speaker 2: including Joe Biden. There were people who wanted to challenge 620 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 2: Joe Biden. Don't forget RFK Junior, who's now our HHS secretary, 621 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 2: wanted to run for president as a Democrat. They wouldn't 622 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 2: allow him on any ballots. Dean Phillips wanted to run 623 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 2: for president as a Democrat. They wanted to primary Joe Biden. 624 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 2: Which if any of these people at the DNC had 625 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 2: any kind of sense, man, how much better off would 626 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 2: they have been doing that having Joe Biden at that 627 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 2: point early on kind of say like, all right, I'm 628 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 2: out of here. I'm gonna step aside. I'm gonna like 629 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: pass it on. Those are two strong candidates. Instead, they 630 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 2: let him stay in there. They pushed anybody who wanted 631 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 2: to challenge him out, and then in the eleventh hour, 632 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 2: when they started panicking because they knew Joe couldn't win, 633 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 2: they said, oh, what do we do? The only person 634 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 2: we have is Kamala Harris. There I saved everybody. The 635 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 2: post mortem on the twenty twenty four election where the 636 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 2: Democrats was. 637 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,479 Speaker 4: You did know that that's literally what happened. 638 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 7: And then, like you said, if through all the money 639 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 7: that they had at the problem, convinced that it would 640 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 7: win because they believe that they are not only right, 641 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 7: but they believe that they are better than the American people, 642 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 7: that they can spend enough money to trick them or 643 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 7: to convince them into voting the way that they believe 644 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 7: is right, because they actually look down on the American public. 645 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 7: We saw this happen in twenty sixteen. It wasn't even 646 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 7: an idea in anyone's minds that President Trump could win. 647 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 7: It wasn't just because he was against Hillary Clinton. It 648 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 7: was because he was against the operation that she had built, 649 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 7: all the money that you had behind her, the staff 650 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 7: she had, which was like over five times bigger than 651 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 7: our staff, the experience that you had, and the idea 652 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 7: that no American was going to go out and think 653 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 7: for themselves when they were being told by every single writer, 654 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 7: every single you know, Hollywood star, every single advertisement that 655 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 7: they had, because again they had many more then we did, 656 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 7: that they had to vote for Hillary Clinton and that's 657 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 7: what was going to happen. I think on election day 658 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 7: the New York Times that there was a ninety eight 659 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 7: percent chance that she won, because they could not fathom 660 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 7: that the American public could think for themselves and would 661 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 7: disagree with the narrative that they had spent so much 662 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 7: time and money on building and shoving down all of 663 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 7: our throats, and they did not learn their lesson. I 664 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,760 Speaker 7: don't think they did an autopsy in twenty sixteen either, obviously, 665 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 7: because they tried it again. Like you said, they didn't 666 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 7: care that Joe Biden was not the candidate anybody wanted. 667 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 7: They didn't care that Kamala Harris was not the replacement 668 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,240 Speaker 7: candidate anybody wanted. They believed if you continued to spend money, 669 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 7: which again they spent more than we did, on telling 670 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 7: the American public Donald Trump was bad, that that was 671 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 7: just going to work. That they were going to pay Oprah, 672 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 7: they were going to pay different rappers to show up. 673 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 7: They were going to tell the people Donald Trump is 674 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 7: even more evil than he was before. That's why they 675 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 7: tried to throw him in prison and spend all of 676 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 7: your tax dollars on investigating him. He was going to 677 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 7: end up back at home and Kamala Harris would take 678 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 7: the rightful throne of the presidency. And it didn't work. 679 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 7: And I don't know if the autopsy is really necessary. 680 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 7: Like you said, we know exactly what happened, But I 681 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 7: hope they gained a little bit of respect for the 682 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 7: American public, that's it, and realize that any candidate moving forward, 683 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 7: right or left, actually has to win over the votes of. 684 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 4: The American people. 685 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 7: You can't just spend money anymore in higher the best consultant. 686 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 4: It doesn't work. 687 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 7: In the age of twenty twenty five, the age of 688 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 7: President Trump, or candidates have had to literally prove themselves 689 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 7: against every single obstacle that's come their way and set 690 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 7: a precedent that most people honestly are not going to 691 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 7: be able to follow. 692 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we deserve it as a country. That's 693 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 2: how the process is supposed to work. You know, we 694 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 2: the people are supposed to vote for who we want 695 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 2: to represent us on a whole different host of spaces 696 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 2: in Congress, in the White House, right all the way 697 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 2: top to bottom. But the Democrats have pretty clearly now 698 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: for three elections, just decided like, man, we don't really 699 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 2: care about that. They did it with Joe and Kamala. 700 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 2: Obviously we saw that I would say they did. It's 701 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 2: Bernie Sanders twice in twenty sixteen and in twenty twenty. 702 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 2: So if you're a Democrat voter out there, you may 703 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 2: want to take a look at your party a little bit. 704 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 2: You may want to kind of really consider what am 705 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 2: I doing? Why am I voting for these people? They 706 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 2: don't really care what I want. Before we wrap up 707 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 2: here today, something that I think about a lot as 708 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 2: a mom. My kids are six and eight. They're too 709 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 2: young to have phones. They're not gonna have phones for 710 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 2: a long time, any sort of a device. In fact, 711 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 2: my husband and I took away any devices that they had. 712 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 2: They had an iPad that they would share in fifteen 713 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 2: minutes of time, you know, once a day if they 714 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 2: did all their homework and got everything done. Alex. We 715 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 2: took that away about three months ago. We're done with that. 716 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:24,879 Speaker 2: We're just and now my kid's are reading a lot more. 717 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 2: It's actually sort of amazing. But a new Fox News 718 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 2: poll shows that apparently sixty four percent of parents would 719 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 2: be in favor of banning social media for children under 720 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: the age of sixteen. By the way, that's pretty staggering. 721 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,319 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and plug myself into that category. 722 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 2: I think we've seen the horrors of social media. You know, 723 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 2: you keep seeing more and more of these kids who 724 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 2: are committing suicide because they are sort of like entrapped 725 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 2: in a situation where it's not even like people they 726 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 2: know most of the time. They somehow get down this 727 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 2: path of a person who says, hey, they're trying to 728 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,839 Speaker 2: extort them. They're saying, well, you pay me a certain 729 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 2: amount of money, or I'm going to release these like 730 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 2: naked pictures of you that you sent because you thought 731 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 2: it was you know, somebody that I'm not. It's it's 732 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 2: really scary stuff. I think it just goes to add 733 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 2: to like depression and body image issues and anxiety, all 734 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 2: the things. I am in favor of this. What do 735 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 2: you think about this? 736 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 8: Alex one hundred percent. 737 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 9: I sixty four percent, and that pole is high, but 738 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 9: I kind of was surprised it wasn't even higher. I 739 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,240 Speaker 9: would think this would be a seventy percent or higher issue. 740 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:41,720 Speaker 8: To be frank, I'm. 741 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 9: Somebody who doesn't like the government coming in and regulating anything, 742 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 9: but here I would totally support Kung I think it 743 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 9: should be a bipartisan issue that they should come in 744 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 9: and get some sort of age limits to social media. 745 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 9: For sure, even sixteen seems a little young, Like we know, 746 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 9: you know it's eighteen plus to be tried as an 747 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 9: adult because your brain's not quite developed, right. I think 748 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 9: that that's something that should be considered and looked at. 749 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 9: I think other countries have done this, if I recall correctly. Yes, 750 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 9: And you know, I think it's so important. I have 751 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 9: a four year old daughter, she just turned forced. I 752 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 9: have a little bit of time before she's really into 753 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 9: any sort of electronics. But I think it's terrifying to 754 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 9: your point talking about the depression and the anxiety, the bulling, 755 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 9: the cyberbulling that happens these days. You know, when I 756 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 9: was little, there was no internet, right, so nothing lasted forever. 757 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 9: But here you have something that could last forever haunt 758 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 9: these little kids who are not emotionally developed to handle that. 759 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 9: One more thing I think next month is there's a 760 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 9: trial that's actually going to be taking place involving some 761 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 9: of these social media companies that have been sued by 762 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,760 Speaker 9: school districts, and they're talking about one of these social 763 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 9: media companies to have some sort of funding for counseling 764 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 9: in schools, that sort of thing, fixing some age problems 765 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 9: with their sites. And that's when I'm watching I think 766 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 9: that there's some real teeth there that these school districts 767 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 9: they can see it real and in person, live what's 768 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 9: happening in classrooms with friends and classmates because of social media. 769 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 9: So yes, I am one of the sixty four percent 770 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 9: that would definitely support increasing an age to access on 771 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 9: social media, whether no matter what the platform is. Snatchat Facebook, Instagram, 772 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 9: all of it. 773 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 2: It's just it's all. It's all bad, Liz, It's all 774 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 2: just the brain is developing. I remember being back in 775 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 2: like high school and the tiniest thing was like the 776 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:30,280 Speaker 2: biggest deal. 777 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 8: In the world. 778 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 2: And you get a little bit older and you get 779 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 2: a little life experience and you're like, oh, well that 780 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 2: doesn't really matter. But I can still tell you and 781 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 2: Liz you probably know this too, Alex you probably as well. 782 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: You know, once you get the first like nasty article 783 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 2: written about you, it can be it can be very 784 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 2: jarring and now, my god, like it's like water off 785 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 2: a duck's back, like we're so used to it in 786 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 2: my family, we don't even bad an eyelash at it. 787 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 2: But it is tough. It's still tough for adults to 788 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 2: deal with this stuff, let alone kids. By the way, Alex, 789 00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 2: you said you thought it should be a seventy percent 790 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 2: or more issue. I'll tell you what actually is is 791 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 2: banning cell phones in K through twelve classrooms. Sixty nine 792 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 2: percent of people were in favor of that. I think 793 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 2: that this is to me, this is exactly where we 794 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 2: need to be going. I mean, I hate to Alex's point, 795 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 2: I hate Liz the idea of adding a government, you know, 796 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 2: big brother type thing to any space. I want freedom 797 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 2: for all, et cetera. This is like a little bit 798 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 2: like alcohol and cigarettes. To me, it is very dangerous. 799 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 2: It's very detrimental to health and development of our kids. 800 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 2: And I, as a parent, would love because you know, 801 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 2: the problem is going to be if I tell my kids, well, 802 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 2: you can't have this until you're in eighth grade or older, 803 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 2: which is what a lot of these schools are trying 804 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 2: to advocate for right now social media, at least in phones. 805 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 2: Then what happens when their friend who is you know, 806 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,320 Speaker 2: ten years old, already has a phone and is already 807 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 2: on social media. It's hard to say to your kid, well, 808 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 2: you can't do it because you're alienating them from so 809 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 2: much of what's going on out there. So let's just 810 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 2: do a blanket. I'm great with that. What do you think, Liz. 811 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 4: No, I completely agree. 812 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 7: I think most common sense people agree, even those like 813 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 7: us who really really hate government overreach. I still think, 814 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 7: much like the abortion issue, I think the government has 815 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 7: a responsibility of protecting the most vulnerable and innocent among us. 816 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 4: Those are miners, those are kids. 817 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 7: A lot of kids, by the way, don't have parents 818 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 7: to make these decisions for them. And I don't think 819 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 7: anyone should have to be harmed by social media or 820 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 7: anything else because they didn't have the privilege of having 821 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 7: two parents like many of us did to protect them. 822 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 7: I think we don't even know how bad social media is. 823 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:37,800 Speaker 7: We don't have enough time and research done yet to 824 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,400 Speaker 7: see the actual negative effects it will have on the 825 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 7: next generation. I am terrified to find out. I'm so 826 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 7: terrified looking at my niece's phones and seeing the pictures 827 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 7: that they post and what they see, and knowing that 828 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 7: anyone can contact them at any point from anywhere in 829 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 7: the world. I think this is a no brainer. I 830 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 7: don't know why it's less than seventy percent. I think 831 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 7: most people, if you ask them, would say anyone under 832 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 7: eighteen should be protected from the most dangerous that's around. 833 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 7: The Internet is definitely one of those threats. And I 834 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 7: think all of our kids would do a lot better 835 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 7: moving forward if we got rid of phones and tablets 836 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 7: and Facebook and Instagram and everything else and just let 837 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:11,800 Speaker 7: kids be kids for the first time in a while. 838 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 2: Man, what a novel idea, Liz, Let's let kids be kids. 839 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 2: It's really true that whenever you take this stuff away, 840 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,320 Speaker 2: they thrive. I've seen it with my own two kids, 841 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 2: and yeah, they give you a little pushback at first, 842 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 2: and then you're just like, well, no, that's it. It's done. 843 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 2: You're the parent, you lay down the law, you tell 844 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 2: them what's going to happen, and then they have no alternative, 845 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 2: and they go outside and they make up games together 846 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,040 Speaker 2: and they figure it out and it's a beautiful thing 847 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:42,399 Speaker 2: to see.
