Okay, we got all the 15 00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: housekeeping out of the way. I can't believe it's Friday already, guys. 16 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: I'm really struggling with the pace of how this holiday 17 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: season is moving. I'm sure you are too. It feels 18 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: like it's mirroring the pace of how the political cycle 19 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: is moving. Just everything's been moving at breakneck speed this year. 20 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 2: I feel like I just got used to writing twenty 21 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 2: twenty five on my checks and all the dates, and 22 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: now we're getting ready to move into twenty twenty six, 23 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: and twenty twenty six is going to be a huge 24 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: year for us. So we got to do a few 25 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,919 Speaker 2: things as we wrap up this holiday season. We need 26 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: to tie up some of the loose ends politically that 27 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 2: we're dealing with. But then we need to get on 28 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 2: the same page about how we're going to attack twenty 29 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 2: twenty six, because I think what is I believe what 30 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 2: is going to happen. I believe the administration when they 31 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: say that a lot of things are going to kick 32 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: in in twenty six. The tariffs, lower taxes, the big 33 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: beautiful bill. We'll start to see some of the cascading 34 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: effects from the deportations, that kind of stuff. I believe that. 35 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: And yesterday Trump did something which I think Tony's listeners 36 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: in the Midwest and Indianapolis area particularly will find interesting. 37 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 2: But he released the auto industry from the cafe standards. 38 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 2: So they've taken the guard rails or the handcuffs, I 39 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: think that's a better word for it, off of the 40 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: auto industry. President Trump has and he said, go make 41 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 2: those cars. Go make all the cars you want, Make 42 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: the electric cars, make the diesel cars, make the tiny cars. 43 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: I didn't know we weren't even allowed to build the 44 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: tiny cars here. I thought that would have been a 45 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: Democrat fantasy. But for some reason, we couldn't build the tiny, 46 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: little pansy cars that have usefulness in areas like let's 47 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 2: say New York City or LA I wouldn't get in one, 48 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: but they have a usefulness. We weren't allowed to sell 49 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 2: them here. I didn't know that until President Trump said something. 50 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 2: So we've released those cafe standards. This means the auto 51 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 2: industry not only are they going to be able to 52 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: increase production, but they're also going to be able to 53 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: offer vehicles at a lower price. I saw the President 54 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 2: of Ford on the Fox Business last night, and he 55 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: said he predicts car prices could drop as early as 56 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: the beginning of next year. He's feeling good about it. 57 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 2: I think things like that are going to shift the 58 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 2: mood of the American electorate. But if the Republican Party 59 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: isn't prepared to catch up to it, it'll be all 60 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: for not. If they're not prepared with the messaging, it's 61 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: not going to make a difference. It won't matter you 62 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: and I know that the Republican Party is the best 63 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: at snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory. And 64 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 2: by the way, we have no assured victories in twenty 65 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: twenty six. I'm afraid we're going to have to scrape 66 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: all the way to twenty twenty eight. Everybody. No one's 67 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: going to get to rest on their laurels. No one's 68 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 2: gonna get to relax. And we had some fun post 69 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 2: election night in twenty twenty four. We had some fun 70 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: with the media. We had some fun watching the meltdowns. 71 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 2: It got a little less fun after they took Charlie 72 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 2: from us. It got a little less fun. So now 73 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 2: what we have to do is buckle down. And I 74 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 2: think I know a lot of you out there have 75 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: felt that perhaps we did the hard work in November 76 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty four, and then some of these other people, 77 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 2: like the Charlie Kirks or like the people that he 78 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: worked with, his colleagues, and maybe even people like Tony 79 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 2: or myself. You might look to those people and say, Okay, 80 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 2: they've got it. The talkers, the influencers and some of 81 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 2: the bigger politicians. I can go back to my normal life. 82 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 2: But I'm afraid it's not time yet. It's not time yet. 83 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: Maybe you can do it if we can pull out 84 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 2: a victory in twenty six, but I don't think we're 85 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: going to pull out any victories in twenty six if 86 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 2: we don't knew the filibuster. We need to do it. 87 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 2: And this is how crazy the news cycle is. This 88 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 2: is how crazy of a time it is. Because Kia 89 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 2: Davis three years ago, four years ago, you can go 90 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 2: listen to my podcast, my old podcast, just listen to yourself. 91 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: My new podcast is just Kira Davis, and I can 92 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: get a little more salty on that one. But in 93 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 2: my old podcast, just listen to yourself, you will hear 94 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: episodes of old Kia Davis admonishing Democrats, telling them don't 95 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: don't nuke this tradition. Now, the filibuster isn't necessarily built 96 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: into the Constitution, but it is a congressional tradition and 97 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 2: it has a good purpose, and it was instituted for 98 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 2: a good purpose during during the Civil War era. And so, uh, 99 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 2: you know, I would if you would have heard me saying, 100 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 2: don't do it, because you're gonna you're gonna wish you 101 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: had it. You're gonna wish you had it. And we 102 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 2: did nuke the philip Us in Trump one point zero 103 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 2: so we could get his appointees across. For for some reason, 104 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 2: the Republican controlled Congress thinks that nuking at this time 105 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 2: would be a bad idea because if Democrats come back 106 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 2: into power, they'll just they'll you know, they'll use the 107 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 2: same thing, but they're gonna nuke it anyway. There is 108 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: no scenario, there is none in which the Democrat Party 109 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: takes control of Congress in twenty twenty six and does 110 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 2: not permanently nix the philibuster. There's no scenario. This is war, 111 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 2: and so whatever tools we have in our belt to use, 112 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 2: we have to use them. And the thing is, we're 113 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 2: not gonna win twenty twenty six and twenty twenty eight. 114 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: I'm telling you this, We're not gonna win those things 115 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 2: if we can't fix this rigged electoral system. I'm telling 116 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: you this as I sit here in southern California, a 117 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 2: state that is solely and completely corrupted electorally speaking. You 118 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: know this, I know this. We're battling. We've got a 119 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 2: gubernatorial battle next year, and we could use the help 120 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 2: of Congress. We could use a federal ID, you know, 121 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: we could use some national voter ID. We could use 122 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 2: some juice here. We're trying to get a state voter 123 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: ID past here. We might be able to get it 124 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: on the ballot. We may be able to do it. 125 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 2: It looks like we're collecting the signatures. Carl de Miles 126 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: out there working hard. Benny Johnson has come in, and 127 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 2: TPUSA has come in. I'm not a person who really 128 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: you know, as an activist, it is it does make 129 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 2: you a little salty when the Johnny cum Lately's come in, 130 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 2: you know, at the last second, and then they get 131 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 2: to have all the credit for quote saving things. But 132 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 2: at this point I really don't care. We just we 133 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: just need to win. So bring all the Johnny cum latelies, 134 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: bring all the influencers. Candice is not welcome. Everybody else 135 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 2: is welcome, though, you know, bring them all and let's 136 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 2: get this done. I we know here in California what 137 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 2: we're up against. We understand that the system is rigged. 138 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 2: What we cannot do is quit because it's rigged. That 139 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 2: doesn't feel right. A lot of people have already dropped 140 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 2: out of the system because of that. I understand that, 141 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 2: but that doesn't it's not right. It doesn't feel right, 142 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 2: and we've got to fight and we need help from 143 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: the Feds. So we need to nuke the filibuster because 144 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,119 Speaker 2: we need to be really serious about what has to happen. 145 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 2: You got to nuke the filibuster, and then you pass 146 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 2: all that stuff, you pass everything, you know what? You 147 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 2: know what, people, if Republicans really wanted to get serious 148 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: about changing America for the good and for forever, eliminate 149 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 2: the income text, like just be bold, do you know 150 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: what I mean? We all have this mindset that just 151 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 2: things can't change, that this is just the way things are. 152 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 2: But I feel like when Trump got elected last year 153 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 2: and then he brought in and Doge, you know before 154 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 2: they're big blow up watching the stuff that Elon was 155 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 2: was uncovering and then watching him provide solutions. We didn't 156 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: necessarily take all those solutions, but watching him say, hey, 157 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,839 Speaker 2: here are ways we can improve this or we can 158 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 2: stop this fraud, it made you realize that we absolutely 159 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,599 Speaker 2: do not have to live like this in any capacity, 160 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 2: in any aspect of your life. You don't have to 161 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 2: live like this. All that traffic that suddenly popped up 162 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: in the last decade in your city, in town. You 163 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: don't have to live like that. Half of it is 164 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: illegal aliens. And that's the truth they try to tell. 165 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 2: They try to lie to us all the time. Out know, 166 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter if the population is growing, but population 167 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: is not growing. The immigration population is growing. Our birth 168 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 2: rates are dropping exponentially because not enough of y'all are 169 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 2: having babies out there, particularly white people. The birth rate 170 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 2: are among white Americans has crater. So you guys need, really, 171 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 2: you guys need to catch up to the rest of 172 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: us out here. I have I only have I'm supposed 173 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 2: to have two point three. I only have two, So 174 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 2: I also have failed in that aspect. But I have 175 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 2: made it my mission to encourage other people to have 176 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: lots and lots of kids, including my own. But we 177 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: don't have to live like that. You don't have to 178 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 2: live with the idea that going to the emergency room 179 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 2: is going to be a twelve hour, twelve thousand dollars proposal. 180 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: You don't have to live like that. That's because of 181 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 2: all the illegals, that's because of Obamacare. But it doesn't 182 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: have to be like that. It doesn't have to take 183 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 2: your city government eight weeks to approve a patch for 184 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: a pothole. It really really doesn't You know what the 185 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: difference is, folks, it's me and you and I know 186 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 2: we don't want that to be the difference. We want 187 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 2: the leaders to be the difference. We want the people 188 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 2: we elected to be the difference. Isn't that what we 189 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 2: went to the ballot box for. But the whole system's 190 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 2: corrupted top to bottom, even the way we recruit candidates. 191 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 2: So it's really hard to get strong candidates who stay 192 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 2: strong when they get the job. That means it's your 193 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 2: job to make sure they're doing their job. And I 194 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 2: know it sucks, and I know you hate it, but 195 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 2: this is where we are. We're at war and there 196 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 2: are no everybody's got a uniform on everybody does you're 197 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: in it? You don't, We're not. It's it's no longer 198 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: in a situation where we're sending our boys to the 199 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 2: front lines. Front lines are in our front yards. That 200 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 2: means you can't relax right now. It means you got 201 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,599 Speaker 2: to be vigilant and you've got to be on the battlefront. 202 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 2: And part of being on the battlefront without necessarily being 203 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 2: you know a big player in the game, part of you, 204 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 2: of you doing your part where you are. It's pointing 205 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 2: out what's wrong and saying, no, we don't have to 206 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 2: tolerate this. No, you don't have to tolerate that mess 207 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 2: that's going on on your city council. You really don't. 208 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 2: You don't. You don't have to accept that all this 209 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: fraud is happening. We need to change our mindset. When 210 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: we come back for break, I want to talk about this. 211 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: I think I talked about it even a little bit 212 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: the last time I was on with you when I 213 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 2: filled in for TONI, but I want to talk a 214 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: bit more about this new campaign from the Department of 215 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 2: Transportation under Secretary Duffy Fly Classy. You know the idea 216 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,479 Speaker 2: of classing up travel, and I know it seems ridiculous 217 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 2: and it is on one level, but I'm going to 218 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 2: explain why it matters on another level. So let's take 219 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 2: a break. Don't go anywhere. I'm Cura Davis filling in 220 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: for Tony Kats and this is Tony Katz Today. Welcome back, everybody, 221 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 2: Happy Friday, Welcome back. You're listening to Tony Katz Today. 222 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 2: I'm your guest host Kira Davis coming into Live from 223 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 2: southern California. There's still some decent people left behind the 224 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 2: iron curtain here in California. We were talking before the 225 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: break about how we all need to work together to 226 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: change things. This is a top two bottom approach. I 227 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 2: actually spoke about it on Fox News last week at 228 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 2: the privilege of joining hand and with guest host Jason Chaffitts, 229 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 2: who's actually one of my favorite guest hosts over there, 230 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: and I told him, look, we're talking about the autopen really, 231 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 2: but what I said was all of this has to 232 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 2: happen at the same time. Does everybody understand the extraordinary 233 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 2: moment we are in history. It's very risky. We are 234 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 2: on a razor's edge right now, and it really could 235 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 2: go either way. But the flip side of that is 236 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 2: a really exciting time to be alive because we're in 237 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 2: a live We're alive at a juncture right We're alive 238 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 2: at a moment of fruition. It's very rare that people 239 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 2: get to live through that moment where you see the 240 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: effects of years and decades of policy and direction and 241 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 2: cultural influence all culminate into something so drastic and so 242 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 2: important here But here we are, and in this moment 243 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: we can tip over either way. And so the battle 244 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 2: is not over yet. Where we're all in it together, 245 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: We've all got to do our part. So that's what 246 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: I was telling Jason Chaffits. It's top to bottom. It's 247 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: not just prosecuting the autopen absolutely has to be investigated 248 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 2: and prosecuted. People need to go to jail for what 249 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 2: they did to us. Americans need to see some Democrats 250 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: go to jail. We do, and we need some big names. 251 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 2: We need to see it. It's not just that we 252 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 2: want to see it, mister President, we need to see it. 253 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: If you're going to get us across the line in 254 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, we need to see it top to bottom. 255 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: It's got to happen. It can't just be at the 256 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: auto pen. It's got to be the border. It's got 257 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 2: to be the tariffs, it's got to be the economy. 258 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: But it's got to be all the cultural stuff. We 259 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 2: talked on the last show that I hosted about the 260 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 2: movies that Trump is promoting. He's trying to get the 261 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 2: Kennedy Center. He understands the value of the culture. Well, 262 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 2: the Department of Insportation has launched this fly classic campaign, 263 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 2: the idea of let's get dressed up to travel, let's 264 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 2: put a little more effort into it. And Sean Duffy, 265 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 2: Department of Transportation Secretary, somebody who I've had the privilege 266 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 2: of working with on Fox News from time to time, 267 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 2: and his wife as well, And of course that was 268 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 2: awesome because they're MTV royalty, which is how I know 269 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: them as a gen xer. So I flipped out the 270 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: first time I met Sean. I really didn't have nothing 271 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 2: to do with his politics, but that's either here to 272 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 2: ignore there. He's actually as lovely in person as you 273 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 2: would imagine him to be, and he has been criss 274 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: crossing the country promoting this. He's been catching a lot 275 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 2: of flat from Democrats saying, oh, look at this problem 276 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 2: going over here. But he wants you to dress up. 277 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 2: But there's a method to the madness. It matters. I 278 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: want to just play you this little clips as we 279 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 2: wrap up this half hour. But I wanted to play 280 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 2: this little clip. I might cut it short of a 281 00:15:55,040 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 2: comedian that our Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy posted 282 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 2: today from the dot account, which I think is really cute. 283 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 2: But he says you know, listen to this comedian no 284 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 2: more Jammy's on the airplane. 285 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 3: Listen what is going on at the airport? Could we 286 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 3: put a dress code at the airport? It looks like 287 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 3: a slumber party. 288 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 2: Do people care what they look like anymore? 289 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 3: They just come out now as is, They must roll 290 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 3: out a bed and then they're at United What. I'm 291 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 3: not into this. I'm not into casual. I like the 292 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 3: fifty sixties people dressed up right. I'm not into this 293 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 3: whole casual you meet these people. I'm comfortable and care 294 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 3: what people think of me as long as I'm comfortable. Yeah, 295 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 3: I'm uncomfortable to air com shower. I'm not into this. 296 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: It's got to stop. 297 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,359 Speaker 3: When you go to the airport, when you see. 298 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: The world, the world sees you. And now what we do. 299 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 3: We sit down on the plane and now we look 300 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 3: to see what could astrophe that's going to be sitting 301 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 3: next to us for a. 302 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 2: Final But it's true, think about that, don't you do that? 303 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 2: When you're sitting on a plane, you're like, oh, I 304 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 2: hope the middle seat's open. But people keep coming and 305 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 2: maybe you know someone who's weighs a bit too much, 306 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 2: or someone who is sloppy, or is eating smelly food 307 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 2: you're wishing, you're hoping that person doesn't sit next to you. 308 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 2: But think about how that affects your mood though, right 309 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 2: the unkempt person who ends up plopping themselves next to 310 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 2: you makes you feel out of sorts and annoyed, even 311 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 2: if they might be very pleasant and nice person personally, 312 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 2: and maybe you get to know them and then you 313 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 2: have a nice flight together, but still it sets everybody 314 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 2: on edge. The idea of dressing up to fly, which 315 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 2: is a horrible experience in these days. I don't blame 316 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 2: anyone for wanting to be comfortable, but the idea of 317 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 2: dressing up to fly isn't just about changing how you 318 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: think about yourself, but it's how other people respond to you. 319 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 2: It creates a chain of events. Does everyone understand what 320 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 2: I'm saying? I actually I had my daughter dress up 321 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: for Thanksgiving. I said, dress up to get on the 322 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,959 Speaker 2: flight today. It's going to be really busy, it's holiday season. 323 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 2: You need every advantage you can't get through the airports. 324 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:16,959 Speaker 2: And so she did, and when she got home she 325 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 2: was so surprised. She said, I couldn't believe how much 326 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: better I was treated going through the airport. She's eighteen 327 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 2: years old, she's young, she's cute, she's like, got the 328 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 2: whole package right, Just put on a cute output and 329 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 2: watch the doors open for you. And it did. And 330 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 2: you know what, this whole body positivity movement that we've 331 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 2: been doing, I'm not opposed to that. My family isn't 332 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 2: a bunch of stick fin figures. We're not models. I'm 333 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: not opposed to the idea of being comfortable in how 334 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 2: you look. But I think we have gotten away from 335 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: the idea of being proud of how you look too. 336 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 2: With the body positive movement, just trying to teach you 337 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 2: to be proud with whatever slop you've got going on. 338 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 2: And that's not pride, that's resignation, that's acceptance. And I think, 339 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 2: just to look back to how I started this segment, 340 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 2: you know, we cannot be resigned. We cannot be resigned Americans. 341 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 2: And that goes from top to bottom, whether we're talking 342 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,479 Speaker 2: about our border patrol policy or whether we're talking about 343 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 2: how you treat yourself and others when you get on 344 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 2: an airplane. You cannot be resigned to mediocrity. Now is 345 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 2: the time for greatness.

We've been talking so far this 364 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 2: morning about how everyone's got to do their part. Everyone's 365 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 2: got to get in the game here. This is a 366 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 2: war and twenty twenty six. You know, we're pulling up 367 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 2: on the end of this year. I don't mean to 368 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 2: bring everyone down in the holiday season, but twenty six 369 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 2: is coming up, and we need to start thinking about it. 370 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: We need to start thinking about what it means to 371 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 2: win America, that this isn't just about elections. Everybody's got 372 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 2: a job to do, everybody's got a part to play. 373 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: I want to ask you guys about this, this story 374 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 2: that I found. I followed this. I followed this saloon 375 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 2: on on X since Idaho Saloon, it's the old State Saloon. 376 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 2: They've been actually been getting into trouble for years on 377 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,479 Speaker 2: X when it was Twitter, I think they had their 378 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 2: accounts suspended. They're very vocal about the well, they were 379 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 2: very vocal about COVID. I think they stayed open through COVID, 380 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 2: and then they were very vocal about the illegal immigrant issue. 381 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 2: And I don't know who owns it, but they're definitely 382 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 2: like hard to the right, and they've been protested by locals, 383 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 2: they've been docked, they've been sued, they've been and they 384 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 2: just it's just pushed them further and further to the right. 385 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 2: They've just dug in well one of the things they 386 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 2: are doing now is offering a program where they offer 387 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 2: free beer free beer to anyone who reports on illegals 388 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 2: and who informs ICE of any illegals in the area. 389 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 2: I got this little report from Lives of TikTok. Let's 390 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 2: just play that. 391 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 4: Ryan Spoon, the so called first winner of Old State 392 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 4: saloons a month of free beer promotion, told Idaho New 393 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 4: Six he filed that tip believing the man he reported 394 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 4: worked for Mickelson's farms. 395 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 5: Basically, I repeated Representative Stephanie Mickelson's state House Representative Mickelson, 396 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 5: she gave public floor testimony on the floor of the 397 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 5: Idaho State House in twenty twenty four. 398 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 6: I believe it was where, in her own words, she 399 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 6: said that quote every food processor in the state unquote 400 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 6: hires illegals. 401 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 4: Michelson, whose family employs hundreds of workers, says she decided 402 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 4: to speak now to let others know she thinks the 403 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 4: saloon's promotion is despicable. 404 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 6: If we start targeting people based upon the color of 405 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 6: their skin, that we really have a big problem here. 406 00:22:55,680 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 4: Immigration attorneys warned that programs like this hamley to false 407 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 4: accusations targeting of Hispanic workers and misuse of federal agencies. 408 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 2: Tell me what you guys think, Go hit me up 409 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 2: on egsach Kara Davis. But I I'm on the fence 410 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: about this. It seems a little mean spirited. But I'm 411 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 2: going to tell you what I think. Americans are all 412 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 2: out of compassion. I think we're spent. I say this 413 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 2: as a dedicated, committed Christian who understands that as a 414 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,199 Speaker 2: part of our faith, we are tasked to care for 415 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 2: the wary and the needy, the poor and the widowed. 416 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 2: So for someone like me to say this, you must 417 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 2: know that we are at the end of our ropes. 418 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 2: And it's not about cruelty. It really isn't, although it's 419 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 2: tempting to be cruel and to sound cruel, and sometimes 420 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 2: I do, and sometimes the people I talk to and 421 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: hear talk about this do. But again, I just think 422 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 2: we're all out of compassion. I actually a podcast on it. 423 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 2: You go over the check that out at Jess Kira 424 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 2: Davis or go to my subsec. That's the best way. 425 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 2: My subsec is just Cure Davis dot com. And it's 426 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 2: like all of my articles, all of my recordings, media appearances, 427 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 2: just everything in one place. But I talked about this, 428 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 2: and I said, look, I do I think Americans are done. 429 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: Every story that you see about in illegal you know, 430 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 2: getting arrested at the airport because they have the audacity 431 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 2: to travel by air in the era of real ID 432 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 2: knowing you're illegal. Okay, but whatever, you know, we see 433 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 2: stories about them getting picked up at the airport or 434 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: separated from their families, and they don't resonate anymore. Maybe 435 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 2: the true blue, sold out progressives are weeping over, but 436 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 2: the rest of us are going, no, we don't want 437 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 2: to live like this anymore. I told the story about 438 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 2: my my friend, my lovely friend, who got red pilled 439 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 2: through COVID. I'm starting to call it COVID pilled because 440 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 2: a lot of people got there. Here in California, a 441 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,239 Speaker 2: young mom in her thirties. She's very conservative and very 442 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 2: much a Republican now, but she was telling me, look, 443 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 2: I have I have reservations about the way Trump is 444 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 2: attacking immigration. I do think we need the importations, but 445 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 2: it's unrealistic to think we can deport everybody. And what 446 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 2: about people like my housekeeper, whom I love, who is 447 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 2: a wonderful person. She's not legal, but she's been here 448 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 2: for thirty years, raised her son here. He's actually in 449 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 2: the military, and they're both huge Trump supporters. And I 450 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,239 Speaker 2: love her, you know, and she's a great American. She 451 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 2: loves this country and she loves the President. I feel 452 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 2: like there's got to be a path for those people. 453 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 2: And I heard what she was saying. I did. I 454 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 2: heard it, But as she is speaking, as her thirty 455 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 2: something south was speaking to my fifty world self, I 456 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 2: was thinking, honey, you just got here, and you don't 457 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,959 Speaker 2: know that We've already had this conversation a dozen or 458 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 2: more times, and we've acted on it. We've passed act 459 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 2: after act and after Amnesty, the Dreamers Act, We've done everything, 460 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 2: and every time they swear this is it, We're going 461 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 2: to make this path and then it's solved. We're never 462 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 2: worrying about this again, and it doesn't happen. So while 463 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,199 Speaker 2: I feel while her maid, her housekeeper, sounds like a 464 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 2: lovely person and has done everything that we would hope 465 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 2: an immigrant would do, assimilate, raise a good, productive citizen 466 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 2: who serves as country. While she's done all of that, 467 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 2: she still is here illegally, and thirty years is a 468 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 2: long time to never work it out. At what point 469 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 2: are we responsible for the decisions that other people make? 470 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? And that's where Americans are. Yes, 471 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 2: we feel for everybody else in the world. We're deeply 472 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: grateful to be Americans. We're not idiots. You know the 473 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 2: blessings we have here in our country. If I didn't 474 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 2: live here, I would be doing everything I can to 475 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: get here. I did do everything I could to get here. Thankfully, 476 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 2: I immigrated from a country that wasn't too difficult to 477 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 2: immigrate from or to live in Canada, so it wasn't 478 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 2: that difficult, and I had an American father that helps, right, 479 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 2: But I wanted to be here, and I led a 480 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 2: pretty decent life comparatively speaking to the rest of the world. 481 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 2: So I can't imagine living in a third world country 482 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 2: and seeing the jewel that is America, and I can't 483 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 2: imagine what that's like. Of course, you would want to 484 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 2: get there. We understand. It doesn't mean we have to 485 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 2: let everybody in here. We cannot sustain it. We can't 486 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 2: be who we need to be for the rest of 487 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 2: the world with them here, and they don't want to 488 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 2: be who they need to be in order for America 489 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 2: to be good for the rest of the world. So 490 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,919 Speaker 2: they're not welcome anymore. None of them are welcome. And 491 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 2: so while I think the saloon it may feel means 492 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 2: spirited what they're doing, and maybe it is mean spirited. 493 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 2: I don't know these guys. They might be mean spirited 494 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 2: men and women. I have no idea. I do think 495 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 2: that the larger issue here is that everybody's got to 496 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: get in the game, and we need to stop tolerating 497 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 2: the degradation of our day to day lives here in America. 498 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 2: It's okay to stand up and say this is not okay, 499 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 2: and you could do that without being a Karen, because 500 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: now we're all scared of being Karens after shaming the 501 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 2: Karens for so long, and those the Karens are liberals, 502 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 2: by the way, the Karens are liberals, and they all 503 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 2: deserve to be shamed. Yes, because they point out the 504 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 2: ridiculousness of bureaucratic red tape and what we lived through. 505 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 2: They served a purpose. But now we're all scared to 506 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 2: be Karens, and so we don't want to say anything. 507 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: And also we're scared of each other. That's the other 508 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 2: result of this unchecked immigration. We don't live in a 509 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:01,239 Speaker 2: high trust society anymore, so you don't know who's going 510 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 2: to pop off on you and maybe rape you, kill 511 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: you and then get let out of jail. In a 512 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:13,479 Speaker 2: city like New York City or Los Angeles, we don't 513 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 2: have to live like this. And it starts right where 514 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 2: you are. This is the thing everybody wants us to 515 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 2: be national, and it can't be. It's got to be 516 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 2: top to bottom, and top to bottom means all the 517 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 2: way to the bottom. That means you're freaking library board 518 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 2: in your town. You know your town has a library board, 519 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 2: It has a library board. Who's on it? You should 520 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 2: go look. Those are the people who decide what programs 521 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 2: go into your public library and what books are there. 522 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 2: And you may think that means nothing because nobody uses 523 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 2: the library anymore, Well nobody, that is true. No one 524 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 2: uses the library anymore except for children. They go there 525 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 2: during school hours because even schools take their kids to 526 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 2: the library. Still a matter of fact. In my town, 527 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 2: my suburb here southern California, the library is in the school. 528 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 2: The public library is attached to the local middle school. 529 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:12,239 Speaker 2: So it matters what's in your libraries and what kind 530 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 2: of programs are going on there. Do you even know 531 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 2: the people that are on your library board? I'm going 532 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 2: to challenge you to go look and come back and 533 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 2: tell me, because I bet you you're going to find 534 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 2: that the majority of them are avowed, publicly proud socialists. 535 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 2: The socialists have taken over the library boards of America. Yes, 536 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 2: it's true. It starts all the way at the bottom, 537 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 2: starts right where you are. And so this saloon, you know, 538 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 2: that's what they're doing right in their community. My friend said, 539 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 2: it's not realistic to deport twenty million people in four years? Perhaps, 540 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 2: but what if it but doesn't become more realistic if 541 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 2: every American becomes a de facto ice agent. There's ways 542 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 2: to do this, everybody. We need to start thinking outside 543 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 2: the box here, stop thinking like an establishment republican, and 544 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 2: start thinking like a revolutionary because that's the time we're 545 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 2: in right now. These are revolutionary times. Which side of 546 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 2: the revolution is gonna win? You're going to leave it 547 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 2: to the crazy progressive lunatics. You're going to let their 548 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 2: revolution win. Are you going to get in this game 549 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 2: and go storm the castle and go win this country 550 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 2: back for good? Let our revolution be the last revolution 551 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 2: we got to take a break. I'm Cura Davis filling 552 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 2: it for Tony Katz, and this is Tony Kats Today. 553 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 2: Welcome back everybody to Tony Katz today, Friday, December fifth. 554 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 2: I hope you're getting your Christmas shopping done this weekend. 555 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 2: I just realized, Oh, I don't have a stitch of 556 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 2: shopping done. I don't know what I'm going to do. Everybody, 557 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: I know we can order online, and I guess that's 558 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 2: what I'll be relegated to. I confess I am not 559 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 2: great at Christmas. I'm not great at it. But you 560 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 2: know I'm sitting on Tony Katz's show. He's not great 561 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: at Christmas either, you know, being Jewish and all. So 562 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 2: I guess I'm fitting right in anyway. Get out there 563 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 2: this weekend, y'all, get your Christmas shopping done. Before the break, 564 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 2: we're talking about how this is a top to bottom 565 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 2: solution for America. What's coming up? I want to read 566 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 2: you really quickly before we head into the next hour. 567 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 2: This story out of Texas from the Texas Tribune. I 568 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 2: think this is important. Texas removes women and minorities from 569 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 2: historically underutilized business program for state contracts that's what the 570 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 2: program is called. Historically underutilized Business, all right? The State 571 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 2: Controller's Office. Comptroller's Office announced Tuesdays that it's removing women 572 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 2: and minority owned businesses from the state program intended to 573 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 2: give additional exposure to businesses owned by economically disadvantaged groups. 574 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 2: The Historically Underutilized Business Program What a name? What a name? 575 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 2: It almost sounds insulting, almost like like you're just historically underutilized. 576 00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 2: HUB will now focus on businesses owned by disabled veterans 577 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 2: and be renamed the Veteran Heroes United in Business Program 578 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 2: or VET HUB. Only veterans with a twenty percent or 579 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 2: higher service connected disability will be eligible. According to a 580 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 2: news release, Businesses that have a HUB certification connected to 581 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 2: their owner's race, ethnicity, or sets will have their certification 582 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 2: revoked under the new rules. According to the Office, the 583 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 2: excuse me, the HUB program was created with the intention 584 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 2: of giving minority and women owned businesses a leg up 585 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 2: when seeking state contracts. On Tuesday, Comptroller Kelly Hancock released 586 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 2: a statement, our nation's veterans have always stepped up for US. 587 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 2: VET HUB is Texas's way of stepping up for them. 588 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 2: Cutting red tape, restoring constitutional integrity and opening doors for 589 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 2: the men and women who are who wore our nation's uniform. 590 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 2: These emergency rules ensure Texas's state contracting is free from 591 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 2: gender or race discrimination and keeps the program centered on 592 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 2: those who earned this support through their service. You'll be 593 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 2: unsurprised to hear that a non HUB certified company has 594 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 2: filed a lawsuit. Very upset, But this goes on all 595 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 2: over a lot of people don't know this. I know 596 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 2: this because I'm black and I have a business in California. 597 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 2: But you can get a little sticker if you're packed 598 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:29,839 Speaker 2: just for a you know, melanin count and you can 599 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 2: get a little sticker and it goes on your business. 600 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 2: And then people get tax incentives to hire your business 601 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 2: through the states. I don't have one, by the way. 602 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 2: I think they're absurd. And in California. Other states offer 603 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 2: them for free or even thirty or forty dollars. In 604 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 2: California it's like thousands. Absolutely not, but I would if 605 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 2: it would give me a leg up here in this 606 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 2: ridiculous state. But it's a ridiculous program, right I would 607 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,280 Speaker 2: be I would be knowingly taking advantage of a ridiculous program. 608 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 2: You have one in your state. And here's the thing. 609 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 2: We don't understand how much that affects where you live, 610 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 2: where you are, because this is diluting the quality of 611 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,359 Speaker 2: the contracts that get proposed to fix the things in 612 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 2: your community. It's diluting the quality of the contractors. That's 613 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 2: the whole problem with DEI and CRT. This is DEI, 614 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 2: this is DEI. That's a whole problem with it. So 615 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 2: your roads aren't getting fixed the way they should be, 616 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 2: your buildings aren't getting inspected the way they should be. 617 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 2: Traffic doesn't flow the way it should be because you 618 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,879 Speaker 2: don't have the proper contractors. Because your whole pool has 619 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 2: been diluted by things like this, All of it matters, folks, 620 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,720 Speaker 2: top to bottom. Catch you next hour. I'm Kira Davis 621 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 2: filling out for Tony Katz, and you're listening to Tony 622 00:35:43,360 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 2: CAATs Today. 623 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:59,399 Speaker 1: Live from the Heartland and the crossroads of America. It's 624 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:04,240 Speaker 1: that's today. 625 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 2: Welcome back to Tony Katz Today Hour two, Friday, December fifth. 626 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 2: This is your guest host, Kia Davis, not coming to 627 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 2: you from the heartland of America, coming to you from 628 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 2: the toilet bowl of America. I guess I don't know 629 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 2: how do we refer to California. I would love to 630 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 2: refer to it as something as all of the things 631 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 2: that it can be, but unfortunately we're up against a 632 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 2: lot these days. You guys know all about it. It's 633 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 2: nothing news, and you're going to be hearing a lot 634 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 2: more about it in the coming two years because our governor, 635 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 2: our governor in name only, is running for president, and 636 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,280 Speaker 2: so you're definitely going to be hearing more about our issues. 637 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 2: Another reason why you shouldn't just brush us off over 638 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,399 Speaker 2: here on the left coast. Everybody, I know, it's really 639 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 2: easy to say, well, you're just getting what you voted for, 640 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 2: or California is crazy, or it's just you guys get 641 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 2: what you deserve. And I'm not saying we don't deserve 642 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 2: all of this stuff. It's the political system and there 643 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 2: are a lot of bad voters here. But that being said, 644 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 2: California is coming to America. In fact, it's already there. 645 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 2: All of the things that you are complaining about right 646 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 2: where you live originated here. I would tell you what. 647 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 2: The last time I was in Indianapolis, I could I was shocked. 648 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 2: I could not believe at the condition that believe the 649 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 2: condition of that city, just physically speaking, but even politically 650 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 2: because as you guys know, I'm good friends with Tony 651 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 2: and so I catch up with him when I'm around 652 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,720 Speaker 2: and we talk about what's going on like here, everything 653 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 2: that's going on in Indie. All of that stuff came 654 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 2: straight out of the California playbook. So the rest of America, 655 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 2: it's not fair.

Now, 668 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 2: the unique thing about living in a place like Orange Catty, California. 669 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 2: Is that Orange County news is national news these days. 670 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,760 Speaker 2: It's kind of exciting, but a lot of people don't 671 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,360 Speaker 2: know the mechanics of what's going on here, and we 672 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 2: are ground zero for a lot of this stuff here 673 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 2: in Orange Caddy. As a matter of fact, after I 674 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 2: get off this show today, I mean to go interview 675 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 2: the mayor of San Clemente, which is a beach city 676 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 2: here in South Orange County, and they are being invaded 677 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 2: by Mexican panngas. Those are those little boats that wash 678 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 2: up unto the shore they are being in. San Clementi 679 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 2: is a small beach town. It's like it's surfers and 680 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,760 Speaker 2: mom and pop shops and it's just a little beach town. 681 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 2: And these these boat loads, some of criminals, some are 682 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 2: families though, are washing up on shore. But they're but 683 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: some of them don't make it. They have already had 684 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 2: I think up to twelve drownings this year so far 685 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 2: from them not they have to. If you're not an 686 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 2: ocean person, you don't understand. But to get past the break, 687 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 2: it's a very dangerous place to be. And if you 688 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 2: don't know how to swim, you know, you don't know 689 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 2: the ocean, which these people surely don't anyway, it's an invasion. 690 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 2: And as we know, those people don't stay here in 691 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 2: southern California, and then they fan out to the rest 692 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,959 Speaker 2: of the country and they bring all their problems with them, 693 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 2: including their coyote handlers. Right when, So when mom and 694 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:13,799 Speaker 2: husband land on the shores of South Orange County, California, 695 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:19,240 Speaker 2: and then they traveled to Indianapolis, Indiana, they still owe 696 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 2: the cartel the coyotes. They so owe thousands of thousands 697 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 2: of dollars. That means those people will be lurking around 698 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 2: your neighborhoods trying to get their money back. Do you 699 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 2: see what I mean? Do you see what I mean? 700 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:36,280 Speaker 2: What I say this is a top to bottom problem. 701 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 2: There is no such thing anymore as oh I wish 702 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 2: President Trump would talk about this and not that, or 703 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 2: I wish people would be concerned about this and not that. 704 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 2: There's no such thing anymore. We have to be concerned 705 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,400 Speaker 2: about it all. It's all got to happen at the 706 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 2: same time. If we pull this win out, it will 707 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 2: be one for the history books. Because because the Democrats 708 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 2: and the progressive left have had seventy five to one 709 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:09,359 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty years to do this to us. Really though, 710 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 2: I would say the Color Revolution, that Marxist stuff really 711 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 2: started pushing hard in the thirties and forties, and so 712 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 2: they've had all of this time to plan and execute 713 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 2: their strategy, and we're now living in that moment of fruition. 714 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 2: This is how this is what it looks like when 715 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 2: Democrats win. So this is this is the culmination of 716 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:40,760 Speaker 2: their winning. The place we were at November fifth, twenty 717 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 2: twenty four, that was the culmination of Democrat winning a 718 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 2: moment of fruition. And so now we have to combat 719 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 2: their seventy five years of execution with one year of 720 00:41:56,160 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 2: precise and excus act political strategy. We have one year 721 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 2: to do it. And everybody is a part of this battle. 722 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 2: You me, Speaker Johnson, President Trump, everybody. Yesterday, President Trump 723 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 2: announced that he will be launching a year long tour 724 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 2: to across the country to advocate for the midterm elections, 725 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,479 Speaker 2: to advocate for affordability. That's going to be the word 726 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,439 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six, affordability. He's launching a year long 727 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 2: tour because we saw, we have seen what happens when 728 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,320 Speaker 2: Trump is not on the ballot. So he's got to 729 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 2: figure out a way to get himself on the ballot, 730 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 2: at least in spirit. So he's launching a year long tour. 731 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: He gets it. Do you get it yet? Go buy 732 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 2: my book, Drawing Lines, Why Conservatives Must be Get a 733 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 2: Battle in the Arena of Ideas Now. The book is 734 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 2: written in twenty twenty two. It's never been more relevant. 735 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,720 Speaker 2: I'm actually going to do a little social media campaign 736 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 2: on it and I'm going to launch some clips because 737 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 2: it's never been more relevant never. It is about exactly 738 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 2: what I'm talking to you right now. It is about 739 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 2: you figuring out where your gifts are, where your talents are, 740 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 2: and where your time is, and then you getting in 741 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,439 Speaker 2: the game and picking a battlefield and then posting up. 742 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 2: Everybody has to do it, and so doesn't mean running 743 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 2: for office. Not everybody can run for office, Not everybody should. 744 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 2: But maybe you support the person who's running for office 745 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 2: that you really believe in. Maybe you volunteer for their campaign. 746 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 2: Maybe you join the library board, maybe you join your 747 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 2: city council. Maybe all you do is go to the 748 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 2: city council meetings. How many people go to your city 749 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 2: council meetings? How many show people show up. I will 750 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:57,280 Speaker 2: tell you that, even as a professional in this business, 751 00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 2: it is very difficult to go to a city council 752 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 2: meeting and sit there for hours and hours of it. 753 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 2: It's no small feat. It's why the journalists class for 754 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 2: as much criticism as we have for them and as 755 00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 2: I have for my colleagues. It's necessary they do the 756 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 2: work that a regular person wouldn't want to do. But 757 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 2: in a time of war, you need to be sitting 758 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 2: at the city council meeting for six hours and you 759 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 2: need to see what they're talking about. I think you'll 760 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 2: be shocked. I think most of you would be shocked 761 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 2: to see how your city council talks and how they 762 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 2: talk to the few people who do show up because 763 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 2: they know they're invisible. No one reports on them, no 764 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 2: one talks about them. That's why I'm doing my show, 765 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 2: The Orange Report, which we just launched our gives Send Go. 766 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 2: You can go look up The Orange Report on givesend 767 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 2: Go and support that mission. But it's just breaking down 768 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 2: the local news about what's going on here in Orange 769 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 2: County and California, so that that news can be disseminated 770 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 2: to the rest of the country. Everyone needs to know 771 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 2: what's going on here. You have no idea, You have 772 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:05,240 Speaker 2: no idea. It's so much crazier than you can even imagine, 773 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 2: and no one there's no one to talk about it. 774 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,439 Speaker 2: There's no one to expose it because we have la 775 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 2: we have San Diego, we have San Francisco, and they're 776 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 2: the only places people want to talk about. But there's 777 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 2: so much other dirt going on here in California that 778 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 2: affects the entire nation. Do you have a universal basic 779 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 2: income program in your city? A lot of blue cities 780 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 2: are doing this universal basic income where basically poor people 781 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,959 Speaker 2: get a guaranteed income every month from the state. That's 782 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,760 Speaker 2: from here. That's from here, that's us. As your city 783 00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 2: considering a mileage text, you know, that's from us. Sorry, 784 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 2: you got a bag band, a plastic bag ban, that's 785 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 2: from us. We try to hear first. We were the 786 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:53,840 Speaker 2: first people. That's from us. Right, everything is coming your way. 787 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 2: So you when you support voices like mine here in California, 788 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 2: you support that bad But if you regardless of where 789 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 2: you are and who you want to support or what 790 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:09,319 Speaker 2: you want to do, you've got to do something. So 791 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 2: just figure it out. Uh, here's here's an idea. And 792 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 2: again you might think this is silly, but it is 793 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 2: not silly. I promise you, as somebody who has run 794 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,440 Speaker 2: for office and also covered many people running for office, 795 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 2: I promise you you hosting a small gathering, a small fundraiser, 796 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 2: or a talk session with a local candidate. It could 797 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 2: change everything. Just somebody some a school board candidate or 798 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 2: the candidate for the water board or for you know, 799 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 2: college board. A lot of you have college boards and 800 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 2: you don't know, but what goes on in your state 801 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 2: colleges has a board, you know, invite that person, Invite 802 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 2: a few people over for our orders, and tell that 803 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 2: person come talk to my group and tell them why 804 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 2: you're running and what you're running on. It just it 805 00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 2: starts a chain, It starts an idea, It starts a 806 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 2: thought that perhaps we all can be engaged in this 807 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,759 Speaker 2: process and we don't have to pretend that these are 808 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 2: things that just happen outside of our purview, because they don't, 809 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,319 Speaker 2: and they affect us all. All right, let's take a break. 810 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 2: I'm here Davis filling in for Tony Kats and you're 811 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 2: listening to Tony Katz today.

Brian Cole Junior of Woodbridge, 821 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:03,959 Speaker 2: Virginia was brought before a magistrate judge on Friday, and 822 00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 2: he says the CNN is claiming that he was a 823 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:16,240 Speaker 2: Trump supporter and he was angry about the stolen election. 824 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 2: He believed that the election was stolen in twenty twenty. 825 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 2: This is what CNN is saying today. 826 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:21,840 Speaker 1: Now. 827 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:25,239 Speaker 2: I haven't read any I haven't seen anything. I haven't 828 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 2: seen any publication. I haven't seen like a receipt. I 829 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:31,879 Speaker 2: haven't seen a Facebook post. I haven't seen an ex 830 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,760 Speaker 2: post from him. I just saw this report in CNN 831 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 2: that said sources say he was upset and believed that 832 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty election had been stolen. I want you 833 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 2: to keep in mind the CNN also said that this 834 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 2: man was white, and he's not a white man, he's 835 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 2: a black man. But also, I want you to think 836 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:56,840 Speaker 2: about this. This is like five years later, five years later. 837 00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 2: We've only had this FBI for less than a year. 838 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 2: And when Cash Mattel and Pam Bondi were at the 839 00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 2: press conference yesterday, they both said there was no new 840 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 2: evidence in this case. We didn't uncover anything. The Biden 841 00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 2: FBI had everything. It was all just sitting in a file. 842 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 2: We had to do no extra leg work on this. 843 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 2: All we had to do was use the evidence they 844 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:24,359 Speaker 2: had already collected and press the charges. So you mean 845 00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 2: to tell me, CNN that this pipe bomber, this black 846 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 2: guy from Virginia was upset that the twenty twenty election 847 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 2: got stolen from Trump and that's why he placed a 848 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:40,320 Speaker 2: pipe bomb. And Biden's FBI, that's why Biden's FBI spiked 849 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 2: that investigation. Is this what I'm supposed to believe? Am? 850 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:49,360 Speaker 2: I too believe that Biden's FBI spiked an investigation and 851 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 2: possible arrest of a Trump supporter who was angry about 852 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:58,439 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty elections that they spiked that because why 853 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 2: they were protecting Trump. These people think we're stupid. They 854 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 2: think we're stupid. And you know what, it wouldn't even 855 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,760 Speaker 2: matter if this guy turned out to be a Trump 856 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 2: supporter at this point, he's not. Don't even fall for 857 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,560 Speaker 2: that banana and the tailpipe. As Jesse Kelly though pointed 858 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:18,000 Speaker 2: out on X Just now, it's the lie that matters, right. 859 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 2: They'll repeat it and repeat it, and your dumb liberal 860 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 2: aunt Peggy will hear it as facts and she'll never 861 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,800 Speaker 2: hear the correction. They're gonna have to correct the story. 862 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 2: She'll never hear it, and it will go down in 863 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,399 Speaker 2: history as the same thing as that the very fine 864 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 2: people lie it. It doesn't matter at this point. You 865 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 2: can't even worry about it. At this point, you really can't, 866 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,360 Speaker 2: because again I don't mean to sound like a broken record, 867 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:46,760 Speaker 2: but we are at war, so we can't be shy 868 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 2: about this stuff anymore. It doesn't really matter if he 869 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 2: was a Trump supporter. The point is that this country 870 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,880 Speaker 2: is rotten. It's been rotting from the inside for the 871 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:01,560 Speaker 2: last four years at least, and we need to fix it. 872 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 2: We can't tolerate this any longer. So if it's a 873 00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 2: Trump supporter or a Biden supporter, it doesn't matter. We're 874 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 2: not bombing each other everybody. We're not gonna do that. Okay. 875 00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 2: Liberals are so committed to this dynamic of left versus 876 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,800 Speaker 2: right they cannot see beyond it. It's what fuels are tds. 877 00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,760 Speaker 2: They cannot see beyond it. They don't understand the concept 878 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:29,280 Speaker 2: of justice. They only care about revenge. Justice is blind. 879 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 2: And that's why someone like me can sid on this 880 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:33,840 Speaker 2: mic and say, I don't care if it's a Trump supporter, 881 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:38,359 Speaker 2: prosecute him. It's not, by the way, it's not don't 882 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:41,400 Speaker 2: believe that story. It's a lie. But even if it were, 883 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 2: I don't care, and I don't think many Americans do anymore. 884 00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:52,279 Speaker 2: Shall we stop blowing each other up? And for not 885 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 2: just that, why don't we start prosecuting this stuff. It's 886 00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 2: not enough to say, look, everybody should be no one 887 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 2: should be above the law. It doesn't matter if this 888 00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,480 Speaker 2: was left or right we disapproved. That's not enough. We 889 00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 2: have to make examples of these people, no matter who 890 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 2: they are. Another reason why it's so ridiculous that CNN 891 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,240 Speaker 2: wants us to believe that this guy was a Trump supporter. 892 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 2: What was going on in January of twenty twenty one, 893 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:25,400 Speaker 2: January sixth, they had Grandma's in prison for crying out loud, 894 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:27,759 Speaker 2: for walking through the Capitol. You don't think they would 895 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 2: have taken advantage of this case if it was actually 896 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:35,719 Speaker 2: going to lead to Trump. No. If you listen to 897 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 2: the press conference yesterday, you'll hear Dan Bongino and Cash 898 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 2: Ftel say, this is the tip of the iceberg. There's 899 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 2: a trail there. Yeah. See, you gotta hear what's under 900 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,920 Speaker 2: the surface. You got to hear what they don't say, 901 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 2: not just what they not just what they say. I 902 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 2: heard them say there's more to this story, and that 903 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 2: might be why Biden's FBI chose not to follow up 904 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 2: on the charges. There's more to this story, and it 905 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 2: might be a bit more than just an antiva ring. 906 00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:09,839 Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean? Those tentacles may reach 907 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 2: into the government itself. But this is the point I 908 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:16,920 Speaker 2: was making at the beginning of the show. Mister president, 909 00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:19,400 Speaker 2: if you're listening to Tony Katz today, I don't know. 910 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 2: Maybe he does, mister President. We want to see arrests. 911 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 2: We want to see purp walks. We want to see 912 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 2: some Democrats and handcuffs. If you want to win twenty 913 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 2: twenty six, that's going to be a big part of it. 914 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 2: It's going to be a huge part of it. The 915 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 2: non base isn't going to like it that much, but 916 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 2: the base you need for midterms, and the base will 917 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 2: love it, and the base is what will push you 918 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,440 Speaker 2: across the finach line in midterms. The base and the 919 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:47,760 Speaker 2: people that we take with us. We need to see arrests, 920 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,479 Speaker 2: We need to see people held accountable. We know more, 921 00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 2: there's more to the story, and we're tired of being 922 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 2: made to feel like we're crazy because we're noticing things 923 00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 2: and patterns and we can't place them because we don't 924 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,279 Speaker 2: have all the information. We just know that what we 925 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:04,759 Speaker 2: see is wrong, and we're tired of feeling like we're 926 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 2: losing our minds. We want an explanation and we want punishment. 927 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 2: We don't just want punishment, we want justice because justice 928 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 2: is the only thing that's going to make sure this 929 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 2: doesn't happen again. At the end of the day. We're 930 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 2: all tired going back to the Idaho saloon story we did, 931 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 2: or my friend with the maid that she loves who's 932 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 2: been here illegally for thirty years, or the Somalian situation 933 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 2: in Minnesota. We're tired. We're all tired. We don't have 934 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:46,520 Speaker 2: any more room for sob stories. You know, one of 935 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 2: the responses I got on X to that Idaho saloon 936 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,400 Speaker 2: post was, you know, I don't like this because it 937 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:55,879 Speaker 2: pits human against human. And I understand the sentiment of that. Well, 938 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 2: here we are. It is. It just is what it is. 939 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:04,080 Speaker 2: We have pitted human against human. I think the decision 940 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:07,319 Speaker 2: to make now is which side of this fence you're 941 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 2: going to be on American or anti American, Because that's 942 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 2: the decision here, it's America versus Anti America. Which side 943 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 2: are you on? I'm Kia Davis feeling out for Tony 944 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 2: Kats and this is Tony Katz Today. Oh, welcome back 945 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,880 Speaker 2: everybody to Tony Katz Today. I'm your guest host, Kira Davis. 946 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,080 Speaker 2: I'm sorry I was busy on X. I had to 947 00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 2: reply to Senator Chris Murphy from Connecticut. It's regarding the 948 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:43,719 Speaker 2: CNN story. I was telling you CNN is trying to 949 00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 2: convince us that the guy is a Trump supporter, The 950 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:49,839 Speaker 2: pipe bomb guy is a Trump supporter, and that the 951 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:53,160 Speaker 2: Biden's FBI spiked the story for spike the case for 952 00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:56,800 Speaker 2: four or five years. I guess to protect Trump or 953 00:55:56,840 --> 00:56:01,399 Speaker 2: something's ridiculous. So Senator Chris Murphy from Connecticut, no one 954 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:05,160 Speaker 2: in America has done more to incite political violence than 955 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:09,440 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. And it's not close, Sir, Charlie Kirk is dead. 956 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 2: Take one million seats, Take them all. There's no more 957 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,799 Speaker 2: to this. We were not in a time for compromise 958 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,399 Speaker 2: with these people. Do you understand who they are? They 959 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 2: have no chill, They cannot compromise. Every act of compromise 960 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:32,840 Speaker 2: and I'm using air quotes that they've made in the 961 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 2: past has been a lie. It's just been to keep 962 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 2: you quiet, to keep you pacified, to keep you calm. 963 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 2: Their goal was always to end you right. Maybe not physically, 964 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 2: I'm not saying physically murder, although there's surely, as we 965 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 2: have seen unfortunately progresses out there who would like to 966 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:54,840 Speaker 2: see us all on the right dead. But they don't 967 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 2: want us to be a part. They don't want us 968 00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 2: to be a part of this country in any way. 969 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:01,239 Speaker 2: We don't even want to be like, yeah, we're just 970 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 2: gonna live together in harmony, and they don't want that. 971 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 2: They don't want you. You be like them, or you 972 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 2: be nothing. These people are willing to tear our entire 973 00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 2: country apart to make a political point. They are the 974 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:21,000 Speaker 2: enemy and they deserve no quarter. I'm sorry if I 975 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 2: sound very like harsh these days about this. But the 976 00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 2: longer this goes on, the more concerned I'm getting. I 977 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 2: don't think enough people are sounding the alarm that this 978 00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 2: is war and we're already in it. We're not about 979 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:36,800 Speaker 2: to be in it. We're already in it. Shots have 980 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 2: been fired, people are dead. We don't have time to 981 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 2: muck about for twenty twenty six. We don't have time 982 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:50,920 Speaker 2: to have the usual conversations we have around midterms, which is, 983 00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 2: you know, I don't want to support this person because 984 00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 2: I have this pet issue or that pet issue, or 985 00:57:56,640 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 2: what about this or that. We don't have time. Now 986 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 2: is battle time. Now is a time when you're going 987 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,520 Speaker 2: to have to make compromises to make sure that the 988 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 2: army wins. That means your guy that you're absolutely convinced 989 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 2: is the only guy for the job might not beat 990 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:16,520 Speaker 2: the guy for the job. You might have to go 991 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 2: with somebody else. Somebody else who has more support and 992 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 2: is going to win. I need every American to start 993 00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:30,360 Speaker 2: thinking like winners. This whole thing that we've been going 994 00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:33,760 Speaker 2: through for the last seventy five years, it's just again, 995 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 2: I cannot emphasize how incredible it is to be in 996 00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:40,280 Speaker 2: this moment and to have all of those years behind 997 00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 2: us now to see. And there's a lot of young 998 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 2: people in the industry now they're just coming up and 999 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 2: they don't know. They don't they don't have that experience. 1000 00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 2: They think they're saying all these things for the first time. 1001 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 2: They don't know what we've been through and what the 1002 00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,560 Speaker 2: patterns have been. But we can see the patterns now, 1003 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:02,640 Speaker 2: and we can see that the left has absolutely no 1004 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 2: scruples and they will do literally anything, including murder, including 1005 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 2: killing the President of the United States, if they can. 1006 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:15,560 Speaker 2: They'll do anything because they know that what Trump is 1007 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 2: doing isn't just about America. It's about the globe. It's 1008 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:25,440 Speaker 2: anti globalism. That's what we're fighting, this immigration incursion. It's everywhere. 1009 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 2: It's not just us, it's everywhere. It's every Western country. 1010 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:34,840 Speaker 2: We're all now having the same conversation. Finally, it's too late, 1011 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,040 Speaker 2: probably for a few of our Western allies. But finally 1012 00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 2: we're having the conversation, and that's thanks to Trump, and 1013 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 2: it's thanks to Trump leading on this issue that we 1014 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 2: can even have the conversation. But the conversation even is 1015 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 2: part of the war. It's part of the battle, it 1016 00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 2: really is it. I just I want you to take 1017 00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 2: a second and think about what's going to happen if 1018 00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:01,960 Speaker 2: Democrats win Congress back in twenty twenty six. It's not 1019 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:05,760 Speaker 2: business as usual. They will crush us and they will 1020 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 2: bury Trump in impeachments for the last two years they 1021 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 2: before the break, what did I say? I said, this 1022 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 2: is coming down to a difference between America versus Anti America. 1023 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 2: Those are the tribes. We're all getting tribalized now. Even 1024 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:25,000 Speaker 2: our media is getting tribalized. We have different sources. You're 1025 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:28,720 Speaker 2: on better footing though, because you live in a society 1026 01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:32,120 Speaker 2: that's dominated by liberal media and entertainment, so you get 1027 01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 2: both sides right. You have to go find your media 1028 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:37,800 Speaker 2: to get the information that you know is correct, and 1029 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:40,480 Speaker 2: then you're just saturated with the liberal media. So you're 1030 01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 2: of course, if you're listening to Tony Katz, you're a 1031 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 2: more well rounded consumer of media. But our compatriots on 1032 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:50,760 Speaker 2: the left or not. I went to see Scott Jennings, 1033 01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:52,720 Speaker 2: came here to Orange County the other night, got to 1034 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 2: meet a nice to meet you, sir. I would loved 1035 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,640 Speaker 2: to work with you someday over there on CNN. I 1036 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:01,840 Speaker 2: did get a call, and then I blasted Tapper publicly 1037 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:07,320 Speaker 2: for his book on the election, and then I got 1038 01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 2: a knot call. I never got invited back. So but 1039 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:12,840 Speaker 2: I would love to be on there with you, mister Jennings, 1040 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 2: and do more work with you. But it was lovely 1041 01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,919 Speaker 2: to meet him. He's a lovely man and very kind. 1042 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:23,480 Speaker 2: And but he did say, you know, he he talked 1043 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:27,800 Speaker 2: about Oh shoot, I forgot what he talked about. This 1044 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:30,560 Speaker 2: was just like so enthralled with my story about meeting 1045 01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 2: Scott Jennings over there at CNN. I don't know. I 1046 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 2: think I'm talking about liberal media silos and how he 1047 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:42,400 Speaker 2: talked about how everything is very siloed now and we're 1048 01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 2: living in two different ecosystems in the news cycle. And 1049 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:51,000 Speaker 2: that's why your liberal family and friends sound so crazy. 1050 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 2: That's why they sound that's why there are You cannot 1051 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 2: convince them they are unmovable. They don't they're not working 1052 01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:01,560 Speaker 2: with all the information, and they think they are, but 1053 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 2: they're only working with half of it. You're working with 1054 01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:09,240 Speaker 2: most of the information. Yeah, that's what we're up against. 1055 01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:10,720 Speaker 2: All right. Let me take a look at my clips 1056 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 2: list here because I had a couple I wanted to 1057 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 2: play on play here for you. I want to talk 1058 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:20,440 Speaker 2: about Yeah, I think we've got time. I found this 1059 01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 2: interesting clip from George Clooney yesterday. I want to talk 1060 01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 2: to you guys about this, and I think if it's 1061 01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:29,600 Speaker 2: nicely in with our theme today, we don't have to 1062 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,280 Speaker 2: put up with this anymore. Things don't have to be 1063 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 2: like this, and we shouldn't consider this normal. 1064 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:37,160 Speaker 3: Now. 1065 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:39,200 Speaker 2: I want you to think. Before I set this clip 1066 01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:42,880 Speaker 2: up for you, let me do a little like puzzle 1067 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 2: piecing for you. Imagine I'm a detective and I'm in 1068 01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:50,200 Speaker 2: my office and I've got the big bulletin board with 1069 01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:53,440 Speaker 2: the red yarn, and I'm connecting all these little dots. 1070 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:56,680 Speaker 2: George Clooney knows a big superstar is also best friends 1071 01:02:56,720 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 2: with a big political superstar. Baraco Obama and who Bill 1072 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 2: and Hillary Clinton, They're best friends. George Clooney was one 1073 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:10,800 Speaker 2: of Obama's biggest fundraisers. During the Obama administration and infamously, 1074 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:15,080 Speaker 2: now it was George Clooney who wrote the op ed 1075 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 2: in The New York Times urging President then President Biden 1076 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 2: to drop out of the race and let someone else 1077 01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 2: take over. Now, I have read several autopsies since that 1078 01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:30,800 Speaker 2: election cycle that have have pointed to George Clooney as 1079 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 2: being instrumental in the Biden dropout. And he was doing 1080 01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 2: that because he got the call from who is befath Obama? 1081 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 2: Barack Obama, Right, That's the kind of relationship they have 1082 01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:46,120 Speaker 2: and have always had. Now, who is George Clooney's wife, 1083 01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:49,320 Speaker 2: A Mall Clooney. A Mall Clooney is a human rights 1084 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 2: lawyer and she does a lot of work for Palestinian 1085 01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 2: slash Gazza causes as well as other causes. She has 1086 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 2: brought a lot of suits against Israeli and Jewish Jewish 1087 01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 2: interests in the Hague over the years. That's his wife. Okay, 1088 01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:14,360 Speaker 2: So here's George Clooney and Drew Barrymore's talk show just 1089 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:19,440 Speaker 2: casually talking about how he met his wife, very casually 1090 01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:23,320 Speaker 2: talking about meeting her for the first time, who she was, 1091 01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:26,160 Speaker 2: and trying to set up a date and then I 1092 01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:30,000 Speaker 2: want you to listen how he very casually drops her 1093 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:34,720 Speaker 2: involvement with the Muslim Brotherhood and what she does for 1094 01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 2: them and what she was doing for them at the 1095 01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:40,720 Speaker 2: time of their meeting. Just pay really close attention and. 1096 01:04:40,680 --> 01:04:44,880 Speaker 7: Then we then we and then I went to London. 1097 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:46,800 Speaker 7: She was living in London, and I went to London. 1098 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,040 Speaker 2: To score a movie. 1099 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 7: And I thought, if you're ever going to impress anybody, 1100 01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 7: it's at Abbey Road with one hundred and fifty piece 1101 01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:55,600 Speaker 7: orchestra there. And I called her up and said, you 1102 01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 7: want to come see a visit over at Abbey Road. 1103 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:01,440 Speaker 7: And She's like, yeah, I'm at a me at the 1104 01:05:01,560 --> 01:05:04,439 Speaker 7: Muslim Brotherhood right now, and I'll come right over. Because 1105 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:06,360 Speaker 7: she was in the middle of trying to redo a 1106 01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:11,800 Speaker 7: constitution for for Egyptians. Her life about my life are 1107 01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:12,400 Speaker 7: very different. 1108 01:05:12,440 --> 01:05:18,360 Speaker 2: I will say that, super cash, super casual. Oh yeah, 1109 01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:22,400 Speaker 2: she was redoing the Egyptian constitution for the Muslim Brotherhood. 1110 01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 2: Fast forward to twenty twenty five and President Trump has 1111 01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:31,560 Speaker 2: declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization. George Clooney's wife 1112 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:33,680 Speaker 2: works with the Muslim Brotherhood. The Muslim Brotherhood is one 1113 01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:38,520 Speaker 2: of the biggest terrorist organizations in the world, the Muslim Brotherhood. 1114 01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:41,240 Speaker 2: One of their greatest supporters is Barack Obama, who also 1115 01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:44,280 Speaker 2: supported their incursion into Egypt and has also given them 1116 01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 2: millions of taxpayer dollars over the years. Barack Obama is 1117 01:05:47,760 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 2: George Clooney's best friend. It's not an accident. None of 1118 01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 2: this is an accident. It's not just bad people, just 1119 01:05:56,680 --> 01:06:01,360 Speaker 2: bad politicians giving us bad policy. It's not that it's 1120 01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:06,840 Speaker 2: far worse. It's far deeper. It's much deeper. And I 1121 01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:09,240 Speaker 2: think as we start to unravel this, everybody needs to 1122 01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:12,240 Speaker 2: understand that this is the consequence of our looking away 1123 01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:15,360 Speaker 2: and trusting our politicians, the political class, to do the 1124 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:17,640 Speaker 2: thing they're supposed to do. And it starts right where 1125 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:21,520 Speaker 2: you are, right in your local community. That's the farm team, 1126 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:24,280 Speaker 2: isn't it. Those people move up to DC. Eventually the 1127 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 2: cream of the crop rises to the top, and then 1128 01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:29,480 Speaker 2: they get to DC. So you can stop the bad 1129 01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:32,919 Speaker 2: seeds right where you are by getting involved, right where 1130 01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 2: you are. The Muslim Brotherhood has been inside our government. 1131 01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 2: They're probably still there. Right If George Clooney's wife wrote 1132 01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:49,640 Speaker 2: the Egyptian Constitution in the late late aughts and George 1133 01:06:49,720 --> 01:06:52,560 Speaker 2: Clooney is best friends with Barack Obama, who was the 1134 01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 2: President of the United States for eight years, during which 1135 01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:59,000 Speaker 2: time they were friends, and during which time George Clooney 1136 01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:02,960 Speaker 2: was married to his wife. All do you mean to 1137 01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:06,600 Speaker 2: tell me that the Muslim Brotherhood had no ties to 1138 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:12,800 Speaker 2: our government? We have been sold out and the Democrats 1139 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 2: know it, and they know what they've done to us, 1140 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,840 Speaker 2: and they know they've been They've been covering their tracks 1141 01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:20,960 Speaker 2: for so long. You can bet what has happened is 1142 01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 2: they got lazy. This happens all the time in local government. 1143 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 2: I was talking to somebody who investigates school districts and 1144 01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:28,920 Speaker 2: he was saying, if you go to New Jersey and 1145 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 2: you investigate, it's brazen, it's blatant because no one gets caught. 1146 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 2: There's no justice mechanism anymore, and so they don't even 1147 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 2: try anymore. And it's just going to take the right prosecutors, 1148 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 2: somebody with some guts to go ahead and bring a 1149 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 2: case in New Jersey for it to all fall apart. 1150 01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,680 Speaker 2: You wouldn't believe the things they say out loud and 1151 01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:52,320 Speaker 2: send each other publicly because they know they're never going 1152 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 2: to get caught. And that's what's happened to the Democrats 1153 01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:59,480 Speaker 2: in our government? They have gotten lazy. So I guarantee 1154 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:02,480 Speaker 2: you there's juice there. There's some stuff to find out, 1155 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:05,840 Speaker 2: and they know and they know they're in trouble, and 1156 01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 2: that's why they're acting like lunatics because they know they're 1157 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:10,360 Speaker 2: at the end. Okay, I've got to take a break. 1158 01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 2: Don't go anywhere. I'm Cura Davis filling in for Tony 1159 01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:15,280 Speaker 2: Kats and this is Tony Cats Today.

Or you could just do 1165 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:35,920 Speaker 2: a Google search and my name will pop up with 1166 01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:39,839 Speaker 2: a million things, So do that if you find anything 1167 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:44,240 Speaker 2: I've been saying interesting. We've been talking about the immigration issue, 1168 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:47,920 Speaker 2: We've been talking about Americans are sort of getting sick 1169 01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:50,240 Speaker 2: of it all. I think on all counts I've been 1170 01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 2: I always am perusing X in the breaks, and it 1171 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:58,760 Speaker 2: seems like the mainstream media memo today is ICE is 1172 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:03,120 Speaker 2: arresting American citizens. So every story is about some naturalized 1173 01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:06,439 Speaker 2: American that got pulled over and detained or whatever. I 1174 01:09:06,439 --> 01:09:09,120 Speaker 2: don't even think those are hitting anymore. They certainly aren't 1175 01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:12,360 Speaker 2: for me. I just keep responding to everyone. What I 1176 01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:14,680 Speaker 2: do actually is I read the stories first, because when 1177 01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:18,280 Speaker 2: you read them, they're never what the headline is. Every story, 1178 01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:22,840 Speaker 2: this person was pulled over for something reasonable and then 1179 01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:26,479 Speaker 2: refused to comply, and then it just spiraled from there. 1180 01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:32,280 Speaker 2: But we've been talking about this going on and how 1181 01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:35,960 Speaker 2: things have been normalized, and the Somalian issue in Minnesota 1182 01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:40,000 Speaker 2: is finally, finally, after twenty years, coming to a head. 1183 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 2: It's been a long time that this has been coming 1184 01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:45,439 Speaker 2: to a head. The Somalian issue is coming to a 1185 01:09:45,479 --> 01:09:48,880 Speaker 2: head over there. President Trump has been saying these people 1186 01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:51,200 Speaker 2: are garbage. They come here in their garbage or taking 1187 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:53,759 Speaker 2: advantage of the system. A lot of them are here 1188 01:09:53,840 --> 01:09:56,519 Speaker 2: quote legally, but they're taking advantage of the system to 1189 01:09:56,600 --> 01:10:01,599 Speaker 2: do that. Now Reuter's airs are rep or saying that 1190 01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:04,280 Speaker 2: the Somalians are scared. Now they're scared because they're Trump. 1191 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 2: The Somalians in Minnesota. Let's play some of this report 1192 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:08,080 Speaker 2: I feel. 1193 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:10,719 Speaker 8: Like people are like afraid to get out of their houses. 1194 01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:15,400 Speaker 8: I am getting calls from my resident CAAI represents City Minneapolis, 1195 01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:17,680 Speaker 8: saying that what should I do? Should I come out 1196 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:20,519 Speaker 8: of the house? The ice is here. Uh, they are 1197 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:25,040 Speaker 8: going door to door. They are stopping folks on the streets. 1198 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:30,720 Speaker 8: And uh, they're not just targeting undocumented, They're targeting. 1199 01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:33,080 Speaker 2: Every other person. The saddest part is the okay, they 1200 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 2: can stop it there. Okay, so you know, so reuters 1201 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:46,120 Speaker 2: read the room. My first question to that guy is 1202 01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:48,519 Speaker 2: what are they afraid of? What are they? Are they 1203 01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 2: here legally? If they're here legally, we're assured all these 1204 01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:55,960 Speaker 2: people are legal citizens, and they're they're they're contributing to 1205 01:10:56,040 --> 01:11:01,440 Speaker 2: the country. You know, they're fine citizens, contributing to America's economy. 1206 01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:04,400 Speaker 2: Then what are they scared of. I'm not scared when 1207 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,000 Speaker 2: I leave the house. I'm an immigrant. Do you know why? 1208 01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:09,680 Speaker 2: Because I have an ID, I have a passport, I 1209 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:13,280 Speaker 2: have a Social Security number, I live here, I'm from here. 1210 01:11:14,280 --> 01:11:15,960 Speaker 2: I'm not scared. I don't have to think about leaving 1211 01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:17,760 Speaker 2: my house. Why do they have to think about leaving 1212 01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 2: their house because they don't belong here? If you're scared 1213 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:22,800 Speaker 2: to come out of your house because ice is wandering 1214 01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:24,920 Speaker 2: around your neighborhood. Maybe you don't need to be in 1215 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:27,879 Speaker 2: the country at all. I'm just saying. I'm Kara Davis 1216 01:11:28,000 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 2: filling in for Tony Katz, and this is Tony Kats Today. 1217 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:53,320 Speaker 1: Why from vall Hartbeiner and the Crossroads of America.

Too many cabs Today our three, Friday, 1220 01:12:03,479 --> 01:12:05,760 Speaker 2: December fifth, Tony is out. I am your guest host 1221 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:09,559 Speaker 2: Kira Davis, author of Drawing Lines Why Conservatives must begin 1222 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:12,080 Speaker 2: to battle fiercely in the Arena of Idea, and the 1223 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:15,080 Speaker 2: executive producer and hosts of the new show based here 1224 01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:19,479 Speaker 2: in California. The Orange Report just launched. You can become 1225 01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:22,720 Speaker 2: a partner and support that mission by going over to 1226 01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 2: Gibsend Go and looking up The Orange Report from Kira 1227 01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:30,320 Speaker 2: Davis and becoming a partner and getting the truth out 1228 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:32,719 Speaker 2: here in California. I actually wanted to start this show 1229 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:38,240 Speaker 2: now because we are coming up on the gubernatorial elections 1230 01:12:38,240 --> 01:12:41,600 Speaker 2: for twenty twenty six, and so the midterms will be 1231 01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:44,200 Speaker 2: very important. I'll have a lot to say about that, 1232 01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:47,759 Speaker 2: but I needed a place to do like California stuff, 1233 01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:51,360 Speaker 2: specifically and particularly related to what's going on here in 1234 01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:55,040 Speaker 2: Orange County, because we're really the beating heart of this 1235 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:57,720 Speaker 2: immigration issue. A lot of people don't know that, but 1236 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 2: Orange County's ground zero, so there's a lot going on. 1237 01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:04,120 Speaker 2: I wanted to start this show to move into twenty six, 1238 01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:09,160 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, excuse me, and give us just one 1239 01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:12,000 Speaker 2: more place to hear the truth, one more place to 1240 01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:16,320 Speaker 2: hear real information, one more place to just hear anything. 1241 01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:20,000 Speaker 2: That's why shows like this show, like Tony Kats today 1242 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 2: are valuable. It's just that it's people speaking, it's getting 1243 01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:29,200 Speaker 2: out there and being heard. If there's anything I've learned 1244 01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:32,639 Speaker 2: over the last five years, particularly, it's that you've got 1245 01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 2: to be the loudest voice in the room. And it 1246 01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:37,719 Speaker 2: wasn't always that way in media. As a matter of fact, 1247 01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:41,880 Speaker 2: I think I'm only recently understanding how the digital age 1248 01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:47,040 Speaker 2: has changed methods of response. You know, as a gen xer, 1249 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:52,760 Speaker 2: my my automatic response to anything insults or lies or 1250 01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:55,599 Speaker 2: rumor is just to ignore and do my own thing. 1251 01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,360 Speaker 2: I don't care what you say you're a liar or 1252 01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:00,680 Speaker 2: that it's not true. I don't care to ignore it, 1253 01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:03,519 Speaker 2: but that's not how it works nowadays. If you're not 1254 01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:06,080 Speaker 2: a voice out there, someone else's voice is going to 1255 01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:09,120 Speaker 2: get put in your place. So you got you kind 1256 01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:13,080 Speaker 2: of have to be deliberate about talking about all of 1257 01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:17,760 Speaker 2: this and discussing all of this. So that's what we're 1258 01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:21,920 Speaker 2: doing over there at the Orange Report. I was looking 1259 01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:27,000 Speaker 2: at this interesting article in the break and it has 1260 01:14:27,040 --> 01:14:28,960 Speaker 2: nothing to do with what we're talking about, I guess. 1261 01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 2: But I didn't know that there's a whole list and 1262 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:33,640 Speaker 2: it's natural if you think about it, but there's a 1263 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 2: whole list of banned publications in the correctionals correctional sector, 1264 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:45,160 Speaker 2: in correctional institutions, and as somebody here in California. The 1265 01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:47,040 Speaker 2: reason I know this is because somebody here in California 1266 01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:50,120 Speaker 2: is suing the state for quote banned books, so they 1267 01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:52,240 Speaker 2: can't get some gay book in there, and so they're 1268 01:14:52,280 --> 01:14:55,160 Speaker 2: suing the state for it, I think. But it caused 1269 01:14:55,160 --> 01:14:58,000 Speaker 2: me to go look at this list of banned books, 1270 01:14:58,040 --> 01:14:59,840 Speaker 2: books that are banned from prisons. I had no I 1271 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 2: I thought, well, what kind of books would they ban 1272 01:15:02,479 --> 01:15:06,000 Speaker 2: from prison? Obviously pornography that's probably going to be banned. 1273 01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously those guys figure out ways to get it. 1274 01:15:09,479 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 2: But here I thought you might think this is a 1275 01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:14,400 Speaker 2: little fun, interesting, at least interesting tidbit of information for 1276 01:15:14,520 --> 01:15:18,120 Speaker 2: your Friday afternoon. Here are some of the books that 1277 01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:22,360 Speaker 2: are banned in your correction correctional facilities. A book called 1278 01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:26,559 Speaker 2: one hundred Bullets by Brian Azirello and Eduardo Riisso, a 1279 01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:29,960 Speaker 2: book called one hundred Deadly Skills. It tells you the 1280 01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:32,880 Speaker 2: reason too. So they actually have a grid here and 1281 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:36,160 Speaker 2: it tells you the reason. And I'll put it up 1282 01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:39,679 Speaker 2: on X. Just go follow me on X Kira Davis, 1283 01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:41,880 Speaker 2: and then after the show, I'll put it up title 1284 01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:44,959 Speaker 2: fifteen and see it presents a serious threat to facility 1285 01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:51,080 Speaker 2: security or the safety of incarcerated persons. One hundred Japanese 1286 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 2: tattoo designs. That's banned. One hundred no equipment workouts that's banned. 1287 01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,200 Speaker 2: It could contribute The reason is then it could contribute 1288 01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 2: to violence or physical harm. I guess they don't want 1289 01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:07,640 Speaker 2: they don't want the convicts working out. I mean, famously, 1290 01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:10,439 Speaker 2: convicts have work got equipment, right. I guess they don't 1291 01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:12,320 Speaker 2: want to encourage you to get it done on your own. 1292 01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:16,000 Speaker 2: One hundred and one here's one this is fun. One 1293 01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:18,799 Speaker 2: hundred and one skills you need to survive in the woods. 1294 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:25,200 Speaker 2: No survival books allowed in prison. One hundred and one 1295 01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:28,759 Speaker 2: things not everyone should know how to do. That's definitely 1296 01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:31,240 Speaker 2: not a book you want your prisoners reading. And there's 1297 01:16:31,280 --> 01:16:34,519 Speaker 2: a lot of pornographic offerings on here. Let's see what 1298 01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:37,400 Speaker 2: else is on here. I'll go. It's all in alphabetical 1299 01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:39,400 Speaker 2: order to I'll go up to the seas or in 1300 01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 2: the seas CJNG A quick guide to Mexico's Deadliest cartel. 1301 01:16:48,439 --> 01:16:52,280 Speaker 2: Obviously you can't. You can't do that because of physical 1302 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 2: harm and violence. A lot of nudity stuff. Cosmopolitan, Oh wow, 1303 01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:01,800 Speaker 2: they even have the issues of magazines you can't read. 1304 01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 2: You can't read Cosmopolitan, May twenty twenty. Here's the reason 1305 01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:13,160 Speaker 2: this is fun. You can't read Cosmopolitan, May of twenty twenty. 1306 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:21,080 Speaker 2: The reason it lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value. 1307 01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:25,439 Speaker 2: No idea they thought about this stuff that hard anyway. 1308 01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 2: That's pretty interesting. Neither here nor there. I thought you 1309 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:32,559 Speaker 2: might get a kick out of it. I wanted to 1310 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:39,000 Speaker 2: talk about this real quick. I saw it's in my notes. 1311 01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:40,439 Speaker 2: Let me just pull it up here. I'm sorry, I 1312 01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 2: know this is not good radio, but I saw this story. So, 1313 01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:49,320 Speaker 2: as we know, Barry Wise has been appointed as a 1314 01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:53,040 Speaker 2: new chief exac over at CBS News. That's a big deal. 1315 01:17:53,160 --> 01:17:57,200 Speaker 2: Not because Barry is a conservative. She's not. I want 1316 01:17:57,200 --> 01:18:00,720 Speaker 2: everyone to understand. It's about Barry Wise. She a New 1317 01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 2: York elitist liberal, but she's super fun. She's very nice. 1318 01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:08,920 Speaker 2: I've met her, I partied with her and her wife, Nelly. 1319 01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:12,559 Speaker 2: She's very nice. But she's not one of us, you know, 1320 01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:15,680 Speaker 2: but she is just she's a free thinker is or 1321 01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 2: a free ish thinker is what it is. So it's 1322 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:21,920 Speaker 2: exciting that Barri's over at CBS because she understands that 1323 01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:23,680 Speaker 2: you have to have all points of view to make 1324 01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:26,960 Speaker 2: anything work. That is exciting. Now, don't get too excited 1325 01:18:26,960 --> 01:18:29,200 Speaker 2: because she's not one of us, but she doesn't need 1326 01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 2: to be. And here's why I saw this. CBS News 1327 01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:38,160 Speaker 2: will present a town hall with Erica Kirk, moderated by 1328 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:41,280 Speaker 2: CBS News Editor in chief Barry Weise. Kirk will talk 1329 01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:44,960 Speaker 2: about the murder of her husband, political violence, the future 1330 01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 2: of the right, and faith. He'll be on Saturday, December thirteenth, 1331 01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:53,280 Speaker 2: at eight pm Pacific on CBS and later on Power 1332 01:18:53,520 --> 01:19:01,720 Speaker 2: Paramount Plus. Do you guys understand the earthquake that is 1333 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:07,519 Speaker 2: just think about that for a second. We couldn't even 1334 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:10,960 Speaker 2: whisper in public that we were conservatives four years ago. 1335 01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:14,680 Speaker 2: You could lose your job for it, certainly in the media. 1336 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,960 Speaker 2: And it definitely wasn't getting any invitations. I wasn't getting 1337 01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:24,200 Speaker 2: certainly not the Kirks, getting any invitation to mainstream media. This, 1338 01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:26,519 Speaker 2: I said, this is what we're all with, all the 1339 01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:29,479 Speaker 2: angst and all of the stuff to worry about, and 1340 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:31,400 Speaker 2: all of the things that are going wrong. And I 1341 01:19:31,479 --> 01:19:33,760 Speaker 2: know you're nervous out there, but sometimes you need to 1342 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:36,560 Speaker 2: stop and look at what's going right. This is what 1343 01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:41,479 Speaker 2: I told you about Charlie's memorial. CNN aired, that MSNBC air, 1344 01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:46,639 Speaker 2: that NBC aired that. I watched CNN coverage. I didn't 1345 01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:48,720 Speaker 2: watch Fox. I watched CNN. I wanted to see what 1346 01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:50,400 Speaker 2: they were doing. They covered it all day. They didn't 1347 01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:54,200 Speaker 2: move away. So what was happening at the TPUSA Charlie 1348 01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,880 Speaker 2: Kirk memorial where people were praying and praising God and 1349 01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:00,360 Speaker 2: holding hands and singing songs of praise. There was no 1350 01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:05,360 Speaker 2: anger or rage. It was all glory. All of America saw. 1351 01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:08,040 Speaker 2: All of your hateful liberal friends and family who would 1352 01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:11,360 Speaker 2: never deign to turn on Fox News saw that. They 1353 01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:15,080 Speaker 2: saw it, and it maybe didn't change them in that moment, 1354 01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:18,240 Speaker 2: but it planted a seed because they got to see 1355 01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:21,639 Speaker 2: something they've never seen before. They only know us as horrible, 1356 01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:26,559 Speaker 2: terrible people who are Nazis and Hitler juniors. They only 1357 01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 2: know us as that because it's all they're allowed to see. 1358 01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:33,559 Speaker 2: So to have a woman like Erica Kirk show up 1359 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:37,080 Speaker 2: on CBS News where the liberals are a captive audience 1360 01:20:37,120 --> 01:20:40,760 Speaker 2: over there, right, they're running out of places to go 1361 01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:44,760 Speaker 2: to find their news. They're still watching CBS. She's going 1362 01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:46,519 Speaker 2: to be talking to people who have never seen her 1363 01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:49,400 Speaker 2: before and who have an idea of who she is, 1364 01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:52,960 Speaker 2: of who we are, but don't really know, and they're 1365 01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:54,439 Speaker 2: going to hear some things from her that are going 1366 01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:58,320 Speaker 2: to surprise them in all of the right ways. This 1367 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:01,759 Speaker 2: is so huge, you guys. We are on the verge 1368 01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:08,520 Speaker 2: of turning this country away from the cliff of disaster 1369 01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:13,519 Speaker 2: where everyone else is heading over. We could actually do this, 1370 01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:18,880 Speaker 2: We could actually win, and it's got again is going 1371 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:23,759 Speaker 2: back to my original thoughts of like top to bottom. 1372 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:26,639 Speaker 2: It's a top to bottom approach. It's not one thing 1373 01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:29,840 Speaker 2: or the other. You're no longer allowed to whine and 1374 01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:33,599 Speaker 2: moan on social media when your favorite politician or your 1375 01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 2: least favorite pundit talks about an issue you don't care about, 1376 01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:41,479 Speaker 2: you're no longer allowed to go, oh, why are they 1377 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:45,080 Speaker 2: talking about this? And not that we're talking about it all. 1378 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:48,280 Speaker 2: Everybody needs to be talking about it all. But I 1379 01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:51,720 Speaker 2: only have one mouth, right, so other people have to 1380 01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:54,960 Speaker 2: talk about other things. Today on the radio can't all 1381 01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:57,599 Speaker 2: be about immigration, right, that's what Kira is talking about. 1382 01:21:57,680 --> 01:22:00,680 Speaker 2: But today on the radio can't be all about that. Somebody, 1383 01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 2: some radio hosts somewhere in America, has to talk about affordability. 1384 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:09,360 Speaker 2: Some radio hosts somewhere in America has to talk about 1385 01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:13,840 Speaker 2: the corruption on the city council or Antifa or what 1386 01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:19,599 Speaker 2: voter integrity, all of it. It's a top to bottom approach. 1387 01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:22,719 Speaker 2: And it's even the culture. We've got to get in there. 1388 01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:25,439 Speaker 2: And that's why it means, Like now, what it means 1389 01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:28,880 Speaker 2: for you, just the normy out there who's not you know, 1390 01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:32,439 Speaker 2: maybe on Fox News every night, what it means for 1391 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:36,599 Speaker 2: you is all of those times, all of those moments 1392 01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 2: where you've held your tongue, where you've said, I'm not 1393 01:22:40,080 --> 01:22:43,480 Speaker 2: going to cause trouble. I'm not going to be disliked, 1394 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:47,760 Speaker 2: I'm not going to be suspected. I'm not going to 1395 01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:51,080 Speaker 2: make this situation worse. I'm just going to keep my 1396 01:22:51,120 --> 01:22:58,880 Speaker 2: opinion to myself while this person exposits without you know, 1397 01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:03,080 Speaker 2: without halt, just saying whatever they want. It might mean 1398 01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:08,440 Speaker 2: in those moments, instead of saying that, you actually respond, 1399 01:23:08,960 --> 01:23:13,839 Speaker 2: you actually say something. So if it's your sister, your neighbor, 1400 01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:16,760 Speaker 2: don't be cruel because these are people you live with. 1401 01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:18,559 Speaker 2: This isn't like being me. It's easy for me to 1402 01:23:18,560 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 2: be harsh and all this on the radio. I'm behind 1403 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:23,320 Speaker 2: a mike. I don't have to see anybody. These are 1404 01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:25,479 Speaker 2: people you live within your community, and so you know, 1405 01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:29,120 Speaker 2: be kind, but tell them the truth. Maybe now is 1406 01:23:29,160 --> 01:23:31,240 Speaker 2: the time when you start telling the truth. That's your 1407 01:23:31,240 --> 01:23:34,439 Speaker 2: little act of rebellion, that's your little piece of the war. 1408 01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:37,280 Speaker 3: You have. 1409 01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:44,680 Speaker 2: You have holy ground to defend, stake it out, defend it. 1410 01:23:44,760 --> 01:23:46,720 Speaker 2: Take a break.

Oh, 1417 01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:11,200 Speaker 2: I guess that one makes kind of makes sense that 1418 01:24:11,280 --> 01:24:14,720 Speaker 2: it wouldn't be allowed in prison. It's published by a 1419 01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 2: publication called Gorilla Convict Publications. I guess, yeah, we wouldn't 1420 01:24:21,160 --> 01:24:25,360 Speaker 2: want our prisoners having that. I wanted to talk a 1421 01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,520 Speaker 2: little bit about let's see, let me pull this up.

I know it's a pain, but we're ruining 1428 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:53,439 Speaker 2: everybody else's life, like we need help, Please help us, 1429 01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:58,280 Speaker 2: so we don't abandon us. But we're sending out these people. 1430 01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:02,280 Speaker 2: And the latest actscident that killed a couple a newlywed 1431 01:25:02,280 --> 01:25:05,439 Speaker 2: couple up in Oregon. The same thing, a man issued 1432 01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:11,720 Speaker 2: a driver's license through California's CDL program an illegal immigrant. Well, 1433 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:14,519 Speaker 2: there's a podcaster. I saw this on x randomly. I 1434 01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:16,800 Speaker 2: don't even know who this podcaster is. He has a 1435 01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:20,480 Speaker 2: lot of followers I don't know. But he was interviewing 1436 01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:25,640 Speaker 2: a woman about she's a CDL trainer in Texas, and 1437 01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:29,560 Speaker 2: she says that she recently got an influx of Afghany 1438 01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:35,400 Speaker 2: after we left Afghansian and Afghany CDL drivers who weren't 1439 01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:41,160 Speaker 2: who were really interested in taking pictures of infrastructure. And 1440 01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 2: I don't think I have enough time. Actually, I don't 1441 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:46,000 Speaker 2: think I'm going to play this clip actually because I 1442 01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:48,280 Speaker 2: don't think I have enough time. It's pretty long, because 1443 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:50,920 Speaker 2: I wanted to I want to talk this out. But 1444 01:25:51,040 --> 01:25:53,640 Speaker 2: she's telling him, I'll do this on x DO. I oh, 1445 01:25:53,720 --> 01:25:57,040 Speaker 2: I forgot to do that, didn't I? I forgot to 1446 01:25:57,080 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 2: post the other link on X Well, anyway, I'll post 1447 01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,120 Speaker 2: both and I'll try to remember. I'm fifty one, give 1448 01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:06,519 Speaker 2: me a break. But she was telling this interviewer, Yeah, 1449 01:26:06,560 --> 01:26:09,719 Speaker 2: I've been training for thirty years. I've been training CDL 1450 01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 2: license license drivers and an influx of Afghani employees. And 1451 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:19,840 Speaker 2: what she was saying was that in recent years, a 1452 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:22,840 Speaker 2: number of them, not one, a number of them, I 1453 01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:26,360 Speaker 2: think she said about a dozen she's had are wanting 1454 01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 2: her to stop during their lessons, stop the vehicle and 1455 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:34,479 Speaker 2: take pictures. So the interviewer asks her, we'll do they 1456 01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 2: want to take pictures of scenery, scenic stuff of flowers 1457 01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:42,439 Speaker 2: or mountains. You know, they're new to Texas, they're here 1458 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:45,280 Speaker 2: in America. Is that what they're doing? And she says, no, 1459 01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:50,160 Speaker 2: they want to take pictures of bridges overpasses. She said 1460 01:26:50,200 --> 01:26:54,720 Speaker 2: they were really interested in overpasses. And she said it 1461 01:26:54,760 --> 01:26:58,920 Speaker 2: was very interesting that they wanted to stop and that 1462 01:26:58,960 --> 01:27:01,040 Speaker 2: they asked her to stop. She says, you're when you're 1463 01:27:01,560 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 2: an instructor. The student doesn't ask you to stop, They 1464 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:09,400 Speaker 2: don't give you instructions. You give the instructions. I didn't 1465 01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:11,679 Speaker 2: see how it was only clip. I didn't see enough 1466 01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 2: of the podcast to know if she did stop if 1467 01:27:14,200 --> 01:27:16,640 Speaker 2: she did, but she said she had a number of 1468 01:27:16,720 --> 01:27:24,519 Speaker 2: students that were particularly interested in the overpasses. So when 1469 01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:27,720 Speaker 2: we are talking about things that seem harmless, like my 1470 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:30,599 Speaker 2: friend's made, who's here for thirty years and is a 1471 01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:37,880 Speaker 2: fine resident, even a patriotic one. But who's you know, 1472 01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:43,120 Speaker 2: here illegally and could get deported? You know, even even 1473 01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:50,440 Speaker 2: people like that have effects all the way down the line. 1474 01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:54,519 Speaker 2: Well you're talking, we're talking about truck drivers. Have you 1475 01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:59,000 Speaker 2: even thought about this issue before this year? No, I haven't. 1476 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,599 Speaker 2: I have never thought about who exactly is in the trucks. 1477 01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:04,599 Speaker 2: The only thing that's concerned me about trucks in over 1478 01:28:04,640 --> 01:28:10,080 Speaker 2: the last few years is automated trucks, self driving trucks. 1479 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:12,639 Speaker 2: We have a number of them here in California operating 1480 01:28:12,640 --> 01:28:14,920 Speaker 2: are already, and they make me nervous. I didn't think 1481 01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:16,960 Speaker 2: about this, even though I knew that had to have 1482 01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:20,880 Speaker 2: been happening, I didn't understand the problem. And even then 1483 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:23,800 Speaker 2: when it happened, when when these accidents happened, I was 1484 01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:27,360 Speaker 2: still only framing it as well, these people aren't properly trained, 1485 01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:30,160 Speaker 2: and so obviously they're going to be a problem. That's terrible. 1486 01:28:30,240 --> 01:28:33,920 Speaker 2: Get them out. It didn't even occur to me this 1487 01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:37,639 Speaker 2: other issue, which is a security issue, much like those 1488 01:28:37,720 --> 01:28:40,320 Speaker 2: nine to eleven terrorists took flying lessons, but they didn't 1489 01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:42,320 Speaker 2: want to learn how to land the plane. They only 1490 01:28:42,360 --> 01:28:45,760 Speaker 2: wanted to learn how to take off and navigate. We 1491 01:28:45,840 --> 01:28:51,880 Speaker 2: have a lot of Middle Eastern Muslim illegal immigrants in 1492 01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:56,680 Speaker 2: this country who are doing strange things like taking pictures 1493 01:28:56,680 --> 01:29:00,200 Speaker 2: of overpasses in random Texas towns. Why do you think 1494 01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:03,960 Speaker 2: they'd be doing that? Why? I mean? One reason might 1495 01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 2: be that if you can damage a nation's infrastructure, we 1496 01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:10,040 Speaker 2: still get most of our goods and services via truck 1497 01:29:10,479 --> 01:29:13,000 Speaker 2: and train. So if you can figure out a way 1498 01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:15,320 Speaker 2: to disable the train tracks and figure out a way 1499 01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:17,040 Speaker 2: to blow up the roads, you can do a lot 1500 01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:21,760 Speaker 2: of damage to how Americans get their goods, services, weapons, 1501 01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:27,559 Speaker 2: and military tools. China's buying up land next to our 1502 01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:31,439 Speaker 2: military facilities. How is that even allowed? It should be 1503 01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:36,760 Speaker 2: for nothing. We should be able to snap our fingers 1504 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:39,519 Speaker 2: and tell these people we're taking your land and get 1505 01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:43,080 Speaker 2: the hell out. There should be no reason why we 1506 01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:52,240 Speaker 2: don't do this, all right. I was just looking at 1507 01:29:52,240 --> 01:29:54,080 Speaker 2: my clip list and seeing what I want to play. 1508 01:29:55,400 --> 01:29:57,519 Speaker 2: I want to stay here though, because I want you 1509 01:29:57,600 --> 01:30:00,080 Speaker 2: to understand. I want everyone to think about how this 1510 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 2: affects you down the line. So again, we're not just 1511 01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:08,120 Speaker 2: talking about the accidents they cause. Were talking about letting 1512 01:30:08,200 --> 01:30:10,960 Speaker 2: terrorists into our country, giving them the keys to the kingdom, 1513 01:30:11,240 --> 01:30:15,840 Speaker 2: letting them take a look around. No, these people can't 1514 01:30:15,880 --> 01:30:19,000 Speaker 2: be here. And Christi Noman's on Fox News yesterday and 1515 01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:21,599 Speaker 2: she said, there's absolutely no reason. Why have we accepted 1516 01:30:21,640 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 2: it that it's like this? Why have we accepted that 1517 01:30:28,280 --> 01:30:30,760 Speaker 2: we just have to let people in from countries that 1518 01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:35,439 Speaker 2: have no system of documentation? Why we've been doing it forever. 1519 01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:40,320 Speaker 2: We've already deserved the refugees, they deserve it. Why why 1520 01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 2: are we doing this? We don't have to. If you 1521 01:30:42,680 --> 01:30:45,439 Speaker 2: can't even have a country, Your country is so messed 1522 01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:50,320 Speaker 2: up that you can't even that your people, Your people 1523 01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:55,120 Speaker 2: don't have ID birth certificates, why should we accept them? 1524 01:30:55,400 --> 01:30:57,439 Speaker 2: What do we owe you? What do we owe them? 1525 01:30:57,520 --> 01:30:59,519 Speaker 2: They can't even get a birth certificate? What are we 1526 01:30:59,520 --> 01:31:02,320 Speaker 2: supposed to do for them? It's all ridiculous. All right, 1527 01:31:02,400 --> 01:31:05,280 Speaker 2: let's take another break for winding on the show. I'm 1528 01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:07,160 Speaker 2: Kia Davids filling it for Tony Cats and this is 1529 01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:24,680 Speaker 2: Tonycats Today.

But if you want to, if you 1541 01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:02,719 Speaker 2: do want a gift to me with something, go support 1542 01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:06,160 Speaker 2: my new project, The Orange Report over at Gives Send Go. 1543 01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:11,040 Speaker 2: It's a locally based politics show that it's aimed at 1544 01:32:11,720 --> 01:32:16,559 Speaker 2: California and Orange County California politics in particular as it 1545 01:32:16,640 --> 01:32:19,880 Speaker 2: relates to national politics. The idea of being the California 1546 01:32:19,920 --> 01:32:23,200 Speaker 2: News is national news, and we need more voices out 1547 01:32:23,200 --> 01:32:27,160 Speaker 2: of here telling people what's going on in here, inside 1548 01:32:27,200 --> 01:32:30,280 Speaker 2: the inner workings, in the smaller areas where people don't look, 1549 01:32:30,600 --> 01:32:34,200 Speaker 2: because those are that's where all these stories start. You know, 1550 01:32:34,320 --> 01:32:36,760 Speaker 2: not every story's from Los Angeles. A lot of these 1551 01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:39,280 Speaker 2: stories start in small little towns and you don't know 1552 01:32:39,320 --> 01:32:42,799 Speaker 2: about them, and they go quietly because who cares? Who cares? 1553 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:46,799 Speaker 2: And then it's only when they become Think about Springfield, Ohio. 1554 01:32:48,479 --> 01:32:52,840 Speaker 2: You know, were worth fifty crises beyond that, But think 1555 01:32:52,880 --> 01:32:58,160 Speaker 2: about Springfield, Ohio in the days leading up to the election, 1556 01:32:59,439 --> 01:33:03,479 Speaker 2: and how that just popped off, and how suddenly it's 1557 01:33:03,520 --> 01:33:05,880 Speaker 2: a small town in Ohio no one ever heard of, 1558 01:33:05,960 --> 01:33:08,360 Speaker 2: No one was ever thinking about this town and suddenly 1559 01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:11,240 Speaker 2: became a national story because, as it turns out, they 1560 01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:15,880 Speaker 2: have been under duress for years. They've been absolutely invaded 1561 01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:21,240 Speaker 2: by illegal immigrants under the guise of labor, and they've 1562 01:33:21,240 --> 01:33:23,679 Speaker 2: been pushed out of their homes, pushed out of their jobs, 1563 01:33:23,720 --> 01:33:27,320 Speaker 2: pushed out of their schools. They can't even qualify for 1564 01:33:27,360 --> 01:33:30,920 Speaker 2: the benefits they pay taxes on because those benefits are 1565 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:33,240 Speaker 2: going to Somalians who are coming into their stores with 1566 01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:36,920 Speaker 2: EBT cards with thirty thousand or more dollars on them. 1567 01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:41,639 Speaker 2: We wouldn't have known that story if it weren't for 1568 01:33:41,880 --> 01:33:44,960 Speaker 2: Trump and the whole election thing and a couple of 1569 01:33:44,960 --> 01:33:48,120 Speaker 2: intrepid reporters going in there. But the truth is there's 1570 01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:52,000 Speaker 2: millions of those stories out there, and they only become 1571 01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:55,640 Speaker 2: big when it's too late. So I would like to 1572 01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:57,920 Speaker 2: be one of those people that's on top of that. 1573 01:33:57,960 --> 01:33:59,400 Speaker 2: So if you would like to help me out, make 1574 01:33:59,439 --> 01:34:01,439 Speaker 2: sure you go over to Gibsen, go look up the 1575 01:34:01,439 --> 01:34:04,519 Speaker 2: Orange Report by Kerrie Davis, and of course go sign 1576 01:34:04,600 --> 01:34:08,200 Speaker 2: up for all my other stuff. Well, I was reading 1577 01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:11,760 Speaker 2: this interesting article from Red State recently our friends over 1578 01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:16,880 Speaker 2: at red State, and headline caught my eye. This is 1579 01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:20,520 Speaker 2: from Ward Clark over at Red State. Pelosi Green retirements 1580 01:34:20,680 --> 01:34:25,760 Speaker 2: are now putting a spotlight on lavish congressional pensions. Now, 1581 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:28,360 Speaker 2: I have think of those assumed that our congress members 1582 01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:31,360 Speaker 2: are way overpaid and have way too many benefits. And 1583 01:34:31,439 --> 01:34:34,800 Speaker 2: you know, I've absumed that for a long time, but 1584 01:34:34,840 --> 01:34:39,240 Speaker 2: particularly when they went ahead and exempted themselves from Obamacare, 1585 01:34:40,160 --> 01:34:42,800 Speaker 2: then I figured, oh, yeah, these people are no good. 1586 01:34:43,760 --> 01:34:49,439 Speaker 2: So I've read this. Ward says, the recent retirements of 1587 01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:52,720 Speaker 2: ex Speaker of the House and representatives in Nancy Pelosi 1588 01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:56,519 Speaker 2: and Margie Taylor Green are drawing a lot of attention 1589 01:34:57,200 --> 01:35:01,680 Speaker 2: to the lavish congressional retirement plan. The vast majority of 1590 01:35:01,720 --> 01:35:05,840 Speaker 2: the record number of congressional lawmakers not seeking reelection next 1591 01:35:05,880 --> 01:35:11,120 Speaker 2: year will collect annual pension benefits that cost taxpayers some 1592 01:35:11,280 --> 01:35:17,000 Speaker 2: thirty eight million dollars a year to pay out. The 1593 01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:20,760 Speaker 2: timing of Green's abrupt retirement, as well as the six 1594 01:35:20,840 --> 01:35:24,479 Speaker 2: figure sum Pelosi will receive after serving nearly forty years 1595 01:35:24,520 --> 01:35:27,519 Speaker 2: in Congress, have brought attention to the little known perks 1596 01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:31,599 Speaker 2: for ex polls and renewed calls to end the program. 1597 01:35:32,479 --> 01:35:37,040 Speaker 2: Now granted, Green's payout in and of itself isn't exactly overwhelming. 1598 01:35:37,320 --> 01:35:41,040 Speaker 2: Brady calculated under the federal Employee's retirement system, Green will 1599 01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:46,400 Speaker 2: start collecting her eight thousand, seven hundred dollars per year pension, 1600 01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:51,320 Speaker 2: which is lower than average at sixty two. Based on 1601 01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:54,760 Speaker 2: the actuarial data, Green's total pension payouts could amount to 1602 01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:57,679 Speaker 2: more than two hundred and sixty five thousand dollars over 1603 01:35:57,800 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 2: per lifetime. Okay, well, that doesn't sound too bad former Speaker, 1604 01:36:02,040 --> 01:36:05,599 Speaker 2: though Pelosi, given the pay pumps she received this House 1605 01:36:05,600 --> 01:36:08,760 Speaker 2: Speaker and her election to the House before reforms made 1606 01:36:08,760 --> 01:36:11,960 Speaker 2: the system less generous, she'll be Hers will be one 1607 01:36:11,960 --> 01:36:15,360 Speaker 2: of the most substantial on record. One hundred and seven 1608 01:36:15,479 --> 01:36:20,000 Speaker 2: thousand dollars per year, But that's a lot of gourmet ice. Cream, 1609 01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:24,040 Speaker 2: isn't it. That's a lot of sub zero ice cream refrigerators. 1610 01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:27,760 Speaker 2: That's a lot of cash, Ward says, that's a lot 1611 01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:30,360 Speaker 2: of cash for someone who grew mysteriously rich on her 1612 01:36:30,439 --> 01:36:34,400 Speaker 2: husband's stunning stock trading ventures. I know, have you heard 1613 01:36:34,439 --> 01:36:39,280 Speaker 2: about that guy who developed the Pelosi app? He made 1614 01:36:39,320 --> 01:36:43,559 Speaker 2: an app and all it does is tracks Nancy Pelosi 1615 01:36:43,720 --> 01:36:47,200 Speaker 2: and Paul Pelosi's trades, and then he trades based on that, 1616 01:36:47,240 --> 01:36:54,960 Speaker 2: and he's made like millions of dollars. Let's see. Excuse me, 1617 01:36:55,120 --> 01:37:00,639 Speaker 2: just my mic here. Apologize for that. Everybody, Sorry about 1618 01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:02,559 Speaker 2: your ears. Here's what the taxpayers are on the hook for. 1619 01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:06,479 Speaker 2: The most recent publicly available data shows retirement benefits for 1620 01:37:06,479 --> 01:37:09,960 Speaker 2: former members of Congress totally more than thirty eight million 1621 01:37:10,040 --> 01:37:15,400 Speaker 2: dollars in twenty twenty two. The average annual annuity received 1622 01:37:15,960 --> 01:37:24,000 Speaker 2: was forty five thousand. Okay, why serving in Congress shouldn't go? 1623 01:37:24,000 --> 01:37:24,120 Speaker 1: Oh? 1624 01:37:24,200 --> 01:37:27,920 Speaker 2: Okay? So question is why, While it doesn't apply in 1625 01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:32,640 Speaker 2: all cases, members of Congress are often well above the 1626 01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:34,960 Speaker 2: American mean income level, and if they aren't wealthy when 1627 01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 2: they enter Congress, they sure seem to become wealthy with 1628 01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:41,760 Speaker 2: unsettling regularity once they've been in a few years. Why 1629 01:37:41,800 --> 01:37:46,120 Speaker 2: should taxpayers be paying their pensions? I agree with Ward. 1630 01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:49,479 Speaker 2: I think this is another thing we need to talk 1631 01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:55,880 Speaker 2: about that we don't talk about that we do not 1632 01:37:56,120 --> 01:37:58,120 Speaker 2: just what Congress is making, because I actually don't have 1633 01:37:58,160 --> 01:38:01,840 Speaker 2: a problem with the money they make as congress critters. 1634 01:38:01,880 --> 01:38:05,080 Speaker 2: It's a job. Then DC is an expensive place to 1635 01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:07,920 Speaker 2: live in. By the way, we should not be requiring 1636 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:10,960 Speaker 2: Congress to find their own housing in DC. If they 1637 01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:13,000 Speaker 2: want to, they can't, but we should have dorms for 1638 01:38:13,080 --> 01:38:16,000 Speaker 2: Congress to be honest. They shouldn't have to sleep in 1639 01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:19,080 Speaker 2: their offices at the Capitol, which they're technically not allowed 1640 01:38:19,120 --> 01:38:22,040 Speaker 2: to do, but of course everyone does it. You have to. 1641 01:38:22,720 --> 01:38:25,720 Speaker 2: This is ridiculous. This is ridiculous. But I don't think 1642 01:38:25,800 --> 01:38:28,320 Speaker 2: we should be paying pensions for sure, because the whole 1643 01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:31,680 Speaker 2: idea of Congress is supposed to be that it's temporary. 1644 01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 2: It's not supposed to be your full time job. Our 1645 01:38:36,360 --> 01:38:39,400 Speaker 2: founding fathers, you know, we need to get back to 1646 01:38:39,439 --> 01:38:42,360 Speaker 2: the time when you had to travel for months to 1647 01:38:42,400 --> 01:38:45,519 Speaker 2: get to Congress, right, we need to make it. Did 1648 01:38:45,560 --> 01:38:46,479 Speaker 2: you see who was that? 1649 01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:48,360 Speaker 8: Oh? 1650 01:38:48,400 --> 01:38:52,000 Speaker 2: I think he was from Minnesota or Michigan. But it's 1651 01:38:52,160 --> 01:38:54,880 Speaker 2: one of congressmen who raced back to d C over 1652 01:38:54,920 --> 01:38:58,040 Speaker 2: the Thanksgiving break to vote to reopen the government because 1653 01:38:58,600 --> 01:39:01,120 Speaker 2: he wasn't sure about the flight and so it was 1654 01:39:01,160 --> 01:39:04,479 Speaker 2: like almost a forty eight hour motorcycle trip. We need 1655 01:39:04,560 --> 01:39:06,880 Speaker 2: to do that again where we have to require our 1656 01:39:06,920 --> 01:39:11,120 Speaker 2: politicians to travel by foot to get to Congress to 1657 01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:14,000 Speaker 2: make their votes, because what it ended up doing is 1658 01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:19,160 Speaker 2: making it special. Right, everybody used their time judiciously because 1659 01:39:19,200 --> 01:39:22,479 Speaker 2: it took so much effort to get there and stay there. 1660 01:39:22,560 --> 01:39:25,880 Speaker 2: Why do we insist on making things convenient for people? 1661 01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:28,800 Speaker 2: You know, I don't really listen to me bahm bug 1662 01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:34,240 Speaker 2: at Christmas of all times. But I have the congresswoman 1663 01:39:35,640 --> 01:39:39,120 Speaker 2: Brittany what's your last name? I can't think of it 1664 01:39:39,200 --> 01:39:41,360 Speaker 2: right now, you know, the one I'm talking about. She's 1665 01:39:41,360 --> 01:39:43,960 Speaker 2: got her baby for some reason in Congress, and she's 1666 01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:48,160 Speaker 2: always advocating for more childcare, better childcare. Why can't I 1667 01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:50,759 Speaker 2: have more childcare in the capital. We need better childcare 1668 01:39:50,760 --> 01:39:53,960 Speaker 2: in the capital, ma'am. If you can't bring your baby 1669 01:39:54,000 --> 01:39:58,639 Speaker 2: to work, don't have that job, right, Maybe you shouldn't 1670 01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:00,280 Speaker 2: be in Congrea. Why are we trying to make get 1671 01:40:00,479 --> 01:40:05,280 Speaker 2: easier I'm going to say something controversial here. Are you ready? 1672 01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:07,080 Speaker 2: I don't think we need to make it easier for 1673 01:40:07,160 --> 01:40:10,439 Speaker 2: women to be in the workplace. I think that's a 1674 01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:16,799 Speaker 2: net negative. I was looking at a politician's childcare proposal 1675 01:40:16,840 --> 01:40:21,759 Speaker 2: the other day for increasing childcare subsidies, and she was saying, 1676 01:40:21,760 --> 01:40:24,360 Speaker 2: you know, it isn't fair. Subly, we do a lot 1677 01:40:24,360 --> 01:40:27,320 Speaker 2: of good work with our tax dollars, but we still 1678 01:40:27,360 --> 01:40:32,120 Speaker 2: have an increased childcare subsidies and working moms need that. 1679 01:40:33,040 --> 01:40:36,720 Speaker 2: And I thought to myself, isn't this crazy? Isn't this 1680 01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:42,719 Speaker 2: interesting how they've got us in this big circular jerk, 1681 01:40:43,320 --> 01:40:48,400 Speaker 2: if you will, this big circular mode where moms have 1682 01:40:48,520 --> 01:40:50,800 Speaker 2: to go to work to pay the bills, So they 1683 01:40:50,800 --> 01:40:53,559 Speaker 2: have to go to work to pay for the work 1684 01:40:53,640 --> 01:40:57,120 Speaker 2: that other moms do of raising their kids. Right, that's 1685 01:40:57,200 --> 01:41:00,760 Speaker 2: a job to pay somebody to raise your kids. That 1686 01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:03,320 Speaker 2: means somebody has to have the job. You've got to 1687 01:41:03,360 --> 01:41:06,400 Speaker 2: go to work to pay somebody else whose job it 1688 01:41:06,479 --> 01:41:09,400 Speaker 2: is to work to take care of your kids. It 1689 01:41:09,479 --> 01:41:13,559 Speaker 2: makes no sense. It makes sense if you're single, right, 1690 01:41:14,040 --> 01:41:16,320 Speaker 2: It makes sense if you live in a society where 1691 01:41:16,360 --> 01:41:20,960 Speaker 2: we don't value marriage and family and family planning and 1692 01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:24,639 Speaker 2: the role of a nuclear family. It makes sense if 1693 01:41:24,640 --> 01:41:26,960 Speaker 2: you're in that position. I mean, I'm not scolding you, 1694 01:41:27,320 --> 01:41:30,240 Speaker 2: and you can't change your life by snapping your fingers. 1695 01:41:30,280 --> 01:41:32,560 Speaker 2: Obviously you've got to be at work. You've got to 1696 01:41:32,600 --> 01:41:34,479 Speaker 2: be at work. If your single mom, your single mom. 1697 01:41:34,640 --> 01:41:38,719 Speaker 2: I can't change that just because I'm whining on radio. 1698 01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:44,040 Speaker 2: This is just Kira talking about her ideas. But I 1699 01:41:44,080 --> 01:41:46,920 Speaker 2: do think there's something to the It's ridiculous that we're 1700 01:41:46,920 --> 01:41:49,280 Speaker 2: making it easier for women to be in the workplace. 1701 01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:50,920 Speaker 2: I don't think we have to make it harder for 1702 01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:53,080 Speaker 2: women to be in the workplace. I'm saying they don't 1703 01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:55,760 Speaker 2: need special accommodations. We're making it too easy for them. 1704 01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:59,599 Speaker 2: A lot of times, we don't belong there, not at 1705 01:41:59,600 --> 01:42:02,479 Speaker 2: the time we're asking to be there. Brittany what's her face? 1706 01:42:02,479 --> 01:42:04,800 Speaker 2: Should really be home with her baby, not in Congress. 1707 01:42:05,960 --> 01:42:08,600 Speaker 2: But that's what Congress should be. It should be temporary. 1708 01:42:09,280 --> 01:42:11,320 Speaker 2: So no, you shouldn't get a pension because she should 1709 01:42:11,320 --> 01:42:13,160 Speaker 2: only be there a few months a year. We don't 1710 01:42:13,160 --> 01:42:20,200 Speaker 2: want to see you go away. Stop helping us. They 1711 01:42:20,320 --> 01:42:23,080 Speaker 2: work too much, so they don't need a pension. We 1712 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:25,080 Speaker 2: don't need to be worrying about them. It should be 1713 01:42:25,120 --> 01:42:27,599 Speaker 2: a thankless job. It should be a job you do 1714 01:42:27,640 --> 01:42:30,880 Speaker 2: because you're passionate about it. And you should leave poor. 1715 01:42:30,920 --> 01:42:33,200 Speaker 2: You should leave as poor as a day you went in, 1716 01:42:33,479 --> 01:42:36,200 Speaker 2: and then you earn your money. Then when you leave, 1717 01:42:36,240 --> 01:42:37,960 Speaker 2: you get to go to the think tank or you 1718 01:42:37,960 --> 01:42:41,200 Speaker 2: get the book deal. Or that's why Margie Taylor Taylor 1719 01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,000 Speaker 2: Green is leaving. That's one of the reasons, right, She's 1720 01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:47,040 Speaker 2: not making enough money and she's not a horrible enough 1721 01:42:47,120 --> 01:42:51,360 Speaker 2: person to go steal her way into prosperity in Congress. 1722 01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:54,519 Speaker 2: She makes good money on the tour circuit. That's what 1723 01:42:54,560 --> 01:42:57,160 Speaker 2: she's going to go do, all right, Good for her. 1724 01:42:57,200 --> 01:42:59,280 Speaker 2: I'm not going to make the money off the off 1725 01:42:59,320 --> 01:43:01,479 Speaker 2: the backs of the American taxpayer. I'm going to go 1726 01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:04,080 Speaker 2: do it honestly as a podcaster or whatever she's going 1727 01:43:04,160 --> 01:43:08,040 Speaker 2: to do. Fair enough, These people are supposed to go 1728 01:43:08,080 --> 01:43:10,600 Speaker 2: to Congress part time and then they're supposed to go 1729 01:43:10,680 --> 01:43:14,360 Speaker 2: home and work their regular jobs and live under the 1730 01:43:14,439 --> 01:43:19,640 Speaker 2: laws that they themselves created. That's how the system was 1731 01:43:19,680 --> 01:43:22,360 Speaker 2: created to work, and it's not how it works. It's 1732 01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:25,080 Speaker 2: a full time job now, and it shouldn't be. It 1733 01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:27,920 Speaker 2: shouldn't be. All right, let's take a break. I'm here, 1734 01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:30,160 Speaker 2: David's filling in for Tony Katz and you're listening to 1735 01:43:30,160 --> 01:43:36,439 Speaker 2: Tony Katz today.

Welcome back to Tony Katz today. 1738 01:43:46,080 --> 01:43:50,120 Speaker 2: We are wrapping up the show, and I thought it 1739 01:43:50,120 --> 01:43:52,080 Speaker 2: would be fun just to end with a little Christmas 1740 01:43:52,160 --> 01:43:55,400 Speaker 2: advice since we were you know, we're leading into the holidays, 1741 01:43:55,400 --> 01:43:57,200 Speaker 2: and I've been admonishing you the whole show to get 1742 01:43:57,200 --> 01:43:59,879 Speaker 2: out there this weekend and finish up your Christmas shopping. 1743 01:44:00,200 --> 01:44:03,320 Speaker 2: Don't be that person. A lot of people have a 1744 01:44:03,360 --> 01:44:05,120 Speaker 2: lot of questions about how to deal with family at 1745 01:44:05,160 --> 01:44:07,599 Speaker 2: a time like this, and I have this advice column 1746 01:44:07,760 --> 01:44:10,960 Speaker 2: over on my sub sect, just Karadavis dot com and 1747 01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:14,240 Speaker 2: it's for premium subscribers, but if you want to go 1748 01:44:14,439 --> 01:44:17,799 Speaker 2: enjoy that. I love giving advice. I found this Christmas 1749 01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:19,679 Speaker 2: advice callum. I thought we should go through it together. 1750 01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:22,439 Speaker 2: Here's a guy I thought it was interesting. He says, 1751 01:44:22,439 --> 01:44:25,160 Speaker 2: my in laws are unbearable to be around for any 1752 01:44:25,240 --> 01:44:27,639 Speaker 2: extended amount of time, not just by me, but by 1753 01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,760 Speaker 2: my kids, their grandkids, my father in law's sister, and 1754 01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:33,400 Speaker 2: to some extent, my wife, her brother. So the whole 1755 01:44:33,439 --> 01:44:37,160 Speaker 2: family just did. They're annoyed by these in laws. It 1756 01:44:37,200 --> 01:44:40,040 Speaker 2: wasn't so bad when my parents were alive. We would 1757 01:44:40,400 --> 01:44:45,000 Speaker 2: alternate so oh, he says, I've mostly started opting out 1758 01:44:45,040 --> 01:44:48,080 Speaker 2: of the lengthy events that they hold. It wasn't so 1759 01:44:48,120 --> 01:44:51,000 Speaker 2: bad when his parents were alive because they would alternate holidays. 1760 01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:54,240 Speaker 2: But now that this parents are dead, every minor holiday 1761 01:44:54,280 --> 01:44:56,360 Speaker 2: is now a big family event that no one wants 1762 01:44:56,400 --> 01:44:59,559 Speaker 2: to attend but I simply can't bear. So the whole 1763 01:44:59,600 --> 01:45:02,640 Speaker 2: family is being held captive by the parents by the 1764 01:45:02,720 --> 01:45:06,200 Speaker 2: in laws. Right, they have three and four day Christmas celebrations, 1765 01:45:06,240 --> 01:45:09,679 Speaker 2: three and four day anniversary celebrations, three and four day 1766 01:45:09,760 --> 01:45:13,640 Speaker 2: Father's Day celebrations, and everyone is expected to attend. And 1767 01:45:13,680 --> 01:45:16,679 Speaker 2: this guy is saying, it's a lot. It's just it's 1768 01:45:16,760 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 2: quite a lot. It was. He says that it seems 1769 01:45:21,520 --> 01:45:24,280 Speaker 2: that they're catching on that I'm avoiding them by planning 1770 01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:27,479 Speaker 2: ski trips to avoid a three day Christmas family gathering. 1771 01:45:27,720 --> 01:45:29,880 Speaker 2: And my mother in law has mentioned to my wife 1772 01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:32,840 Speaker 2: that she really wants me to like them and appreciate them, 1773 01:45:32,920 --> 01:45:36,439 Speaker 2: and I am appreciative of them. They're very generous, and 1774 01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:39,280 Speaker 2: they've helped me raise my boys, and they've made that 1775 01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:44,720 Speaker 2: a lot easier. However, they were never once They've never 1776 01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:48,639 Speaker 2: once given any reason to like them. Case in point, 1777 01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:51,000 Speaker 2: on Father's Day, they expected me to join them for 1778 01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:54,000 Speaker 2: a four day getaway, which, on the one hand, is 1779 01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:57,200 Speaker 2: better compared to the last few few years, where they 1780 01:45:57,320 --> 01:45:59,559 Speaker 2: just expected him to be the servant, you know, do 1781 01:45:59,600 --> 01:46:02,120 Speaker 2: the barbie you and make all the cocktails, and then 1782 01:46:02,280 --> 01:46:05,360 Speaker 2: never ask him about anything about his life. He says. 1783 01:46:05,360 --> 01:46:07,800 Speaker 2: In the rare chance I'm in a conversation with another 1784 01:46:07,840 --> 01:46:11,160 Speaker 2: family member, the father in law insists on interrupting the 1785 01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:15,800 Speaker 2: conversation with some inane announcement of how great he is. 1786 01:46:16,080 --> 01:46:18,280 Speaker 2: I've been married for twenty one years, and in that 1787 01:46:18,400 --> 01:46:21,000 Speaker 2: time they didn't attend any of my parents' funerals or 1788 01:46:21,040 --> 01:46:27,439 Speaker 2: any of our events. I've spoken with my wife, and 1789 01:46:27,479 --> 01:46:30,719 Speaker 2: I've spoken with this about my wife, and she understands completely, 1790 01:46:30,720 --> 01:46:33,040 Speaker 2: but her mother is filling her with guilt. I would 1791 01:46:33,080 --> 01:46:35,559 Speaker 2: love to have an extended family of people to socialize with, 1792 01:46:35,800 --> 01:46:38,200 Speaker 2: but how can I navigate this when every visit makes 1793 01:46:38,240 --> 01:46:40,840 Speaker 2: me feel like I'm about to lose my crap on 1794 01:46:41,120 --> 01:46:44,320 Speaker 2: all of them. I would love to like them, So 1795 01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:48,000 Speaker 2: is there any way to help them understand they need 1796 01:46:48,160 --> 01:46:53,639 Speaker 2: to be more likable? And here's a little tidbit in here. 1797 01:46:54,080 --> 01:46:57,000 Speaker 2: He did say I think they're Republicans. This is his problem. 1798 01:46:57,240 --> 01:47:01,120 Speaker 2: He did say he finally, I was always trying to 1799 01:47:01,120 --> 01:47:05,400 Speaker 2: steer the conversation about how guns are under my America. 1800 01:47:05,600 --> 01:47:10,000 Speaker 2: Biden wants to base taxes or this is all deies. 1801 01:47:10,600 --> 01:47:13,800 Speaker 2: And my advice to this man is to just plan 1802 01:47:13,920 --> 01:47:17,200 Speaker 2: your vacations and do that and don't worry about the family. 1803 01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:19,040 Speaker 2: They'll come to you if they really want to see you. 1804 01:47:19,280 --> 01:47:22,400 Speaker 2: They sound like narcissistic boomers. All right, I'm not a 1805 01:47:22,479 --> 01:47:24,800 Speaker 2: narcissistic boomer. I'm a happy gen xer and I'm going 1806 01:47:24,840 --> 01:47:26,479 Speaker 2: to head out great to be with you guys. I'll 1807 01:47:26,520 --> 01:47:33,200 Speaker 2: catch you on the flip side.
