1 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: Live from val Heartland and the Crossroads of America. It's 2 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: Tony Katz today. 3 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,320 Speaker 2: The US Department of Health and Human Services as frozen 4 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 2: childcare payments and started requiring documentation to prove entities are 5 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 2: indeed providing childcare. Other federal agencies are halting grant programs, 6 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: investigating public housing fraud, and strengthening program eligibility requirements. The 7 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 2: American people demand jail time for those who stole their 8 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 2: hard earned money and accountability for officials who sat by 9 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: as resources were drained. 10 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: Damn straight, Absolutely everybody opposed to investigations into the fraud 11 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. You got to push those people right to 12 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:52,639 Speaker 1: the side. They don't count and they should not be respected. 13 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: Tony Katz, Tony Kats today, good to be with you. 14 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: They aren't serious people. The fraud is massive, it's growing. 15 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: They were giving our federal government or states were giving 16 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: dollars to child's care programs that simply applied without actually 17 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: verifying that they actually did the job, which has you saying, well, 18 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: that's government for you, that's government for you. This is madness. 19 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: And those people are saying, well, this is just an 20 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: attack on Somali's Let's make this perfectly clear, shall we 21 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: There are a lot of Somali nationals and a lot 22 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: of people who hail from Somalia involved in a whole 23 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: bunch of freaking crime. There is a cultural component here 24 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: that cannot be denied. I agree that you can't simply 25 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: say everybody's from Somalia is a thief, and you can't 26 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,279 Speaker 1: trust or like or have anybody from Somalia. I don't 27 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: believe in that, and I think that the argument that 28 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: Noah Rothman made from National Review on this show is 29 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: a worthy one. In a recognition of our humanity, you 30 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: can't just say one person did this, so everybody who 31 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: looks like that, sounds like that, or has a connection 32 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: to that, is therefore evil. That's not it. But it 33 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: is without question important for us to recognize that there 34 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: are cultural differences in nations and in peoples, and in 35 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: philosophies and in religions, and in the case of Islam, 36 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: political systems, and those are incompatible. We are incompatible with Islamists, 37 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: we are incompatible with Sharia, we are incompatible with communism. 38 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: The American way of life simply cannot exist with those 39 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: other things. Now they could go exist where they are. 40 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: I feel bad for them. It's an awful way to live. 41 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: But they can't be here and trying to engage with 42 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: us utilizing their systems. If we are to believe in 43 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: the melting, those who are coming here must melt and 44 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: follow our standard. This is where it gets I push 45 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: back on jade Vance. Jade Van's America is not an idea. 46 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: America is a land and a people. It's not. His 47 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: argument is why don't we treat ourselves better? Like That's 48 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: I always think this is overarching argument, why don't we 49 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: treat ourselves as a country that has a history and 50 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: a heritage. And the answer is if the land underneath 51 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: our feet suddenly exploded but we were still alive, we 52 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: could go anywhere and recreate this. Our existence doesn't come 53 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: from land. And I actually think there's something rather uplift 54 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: about that, something incredibly valuable about that. And I think 55 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: the argument back is, well, then, how if we don't 56 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: engage the concept of the land, do we actually think 57 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: about protecting our nation? If the land doesn't mean anything 58 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: to us, right, if we're all honest, we can engage 59 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: this conversation. Well, I put forth to you that, in 60 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: my view, the fundamental flaw is allowing people into the 61 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: nation who have no interest in actually seeing the nation grow. 62 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: And while it was Noah Rolton from National Review saying, hey, 63 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: we have to you have people who are charged in 64 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 1: these charging documents. Those are the people who we should 65 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: be discussing here, not Somali's writ large. Even National Review 66 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: had to admit that the Minneapolis daycare only the tip 67 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: of the fraud scandal. And that is correct. Minnesota, Ohio, California, 68 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: Washington State and coming soon, your state, coming soon, North Carolina, 69 00:04:54,760 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 1: coming soon, Louisiana coming soon, Oklahoma, coming soon, Michigan and 70 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: actually not even coming soon. It's here, of course, it's here. 71 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: And if we were to take a poll right now, 72 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: a show of hands, how many people think there's fraud 73 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,119 Speaker 1: happening with these daycare centers in your state? Right now? 74 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: Look in the car next to you, Look at the 75 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: person next to you. One hundred every hands up. Who 76 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: doesn't believe this? That's the point. Everyone believes it. It's 77 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 1: that on the left, they don't want you to talk 78 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: about it. They don't believe you should be allowed to 79 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: talk about it. As a matter of fact, if you 80 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: talk about it, they call you, what a racist, a bigot. 81 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: This that a xenophobe, and that's why they must be dismissed. 82 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: Because if we do not discuss it, we don't get 83 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: rid of the fraud. What's our option live like this? 84 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: The leftist argument is you should live like this. I 85 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: don't think we should live like this. I think that's 86 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: a rather insane thing to do and to think. I 87 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: think that is a terrible way to live and to act. 88 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: We should say no. And why in the world is 89 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: this political? How did this become partisan? It's fraud and 90 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: Democrats are saying, look what those Republicans are done. That's 91 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: what Tim Walls, the government Minnesota, said, I'm not running 92 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: for reelection because those Republicans weaponize the scandal. Son, you 93 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: didn't handle your business. You're the governor and the buckstops 94 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: with you. You're the one who says it, but you 95 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: didn't do it. You look the other way because you 96 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: were so afraid of the Somali nationals, so afraid of 97 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: your leftist progressives, that if you looked into the scandal, 98 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: you'd be called a racist, and oh, you can't have that. 99 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: Being called a racist means nothing. Being called a racist 100 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: doesn't mean anything. It's just what losers say when they 101 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: don't want to have a discussion, when they don't want 102 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: to see the facts, when they want to keep you 103 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: from asking questions, it's a silencing mechanism. To hell with them. 104 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: We have got a major issue affecting every child in 105 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: America because the money that's stolen means we can't help 106 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: these kids. It's always about the kids, right, Black kids, 107 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: Asian kids, Hispanic kids, gay kids, White kids, straight kids, 108 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: Christian kids, Muslim kids, Jewish kids, all affected by these 109 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: lowlife scumbags in Minneapolis and California and Washington State and 110 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: Ohio and where you live, cheating the system and stealing 111 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: from the American people. In a choice between American kids 112 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: of all stripes and these low life scum bags, whether 113 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: they're American or otherwise, I choose the kids and let's 114 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: go get these people, charge them, put them on trial, 115 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,119 Speaker 1: and when found guilty, if there are American citizens in jail, 116 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: and if they're not citizens, deportation. How is that not 117 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: something that has one hundred percent unanimity. Boggles the mind. 118 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: But what you heard earlier was James Comer House Oversight 119 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: Committee talking about this fraud. So they had a hearing today, 120 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: and this is the ranking Democrat on the committee, Representative Garcia, 121 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: what does he say. 122 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 3: Being here today and for all of the members being back, 123 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 3: we all agree. I think everyone on both sides of 124 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 3: the aisle can agree that fraud is a threat at 125 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 3: every level of government, in every private sector business, and 126 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 3: to every single American. 127 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: Fraud exists everywhere. 128 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 3: When I was mayor of my hometown in Long Beach, 129 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 3: we worked for better and more efficient government and took 130 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 3: on fraud whenever it existed and wherever it. 131 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: To protect taxpayers. 132 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 3: It's something that all of us take seriously every single day. 133 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: When we find fraud, we should punish people and those 134 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: that are committing it against the American public, especially when 135 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: it damages services that people rely on. Now, what we 136 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 3: should not do is use fraud as an excuse to 137 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 3: rip away aid from innocent people who follow the rules 138 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 3: and need help in our society. 139 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 1: Let's stop right there. I think we would agree. I 140 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: think we would agree that just because one person commits 141 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: fraud doesn't mean that the other person should suffer. But 142 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: how are we supposed to get rid of the fraud 143 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: if we don't stop the fraud? And sometimes that involves 144 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: saying whohoa, whoa, whoa, who wo everybody stop, what are 145 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: we looking at here? You know this from your personal life. 146 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: You have never run for office, you've never been in office, 147 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: you're not a part of government, but you know from 148 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: your personal life. Whohoahahahahoa, everybody stop, what are we looking 149 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 1: at here? What is it that actually happened here? And 150 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: I will bet you without hearing this, I will bet 151 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: you that Representative Garcia is now going to accuse Republicans 152 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 1: of being bigots and xenophobes. 153 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 3: We should fight fraud when people rip off programs designed 154 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 3: to help working families, and also we should fight fraud 155 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: when large corporations and wealthy individuals dodge their own taxes 156 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 3: and rig the system for their own benefit. 157 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: Okay, so he didn't call anybody a xenophobe. He just 158 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: called you a tax dodger. That's the fault. Oh my god, 159 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: that is unbelievable. These people are lying and stealing millions, 160 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: if not billions of dollars, and in pure classic progressive form, 161 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: Representative Garcia of California says, it's the fault of rich 162 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 1: people not paying their taxes. No, no, it's it's not. 163 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: But you can't stop a progressive from doing progressive things. Yeah, 164 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 1: he won't stop progressiving. Progressive is in progressiving. You'll tell 165 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: me later. Meanwhile, back to the representative, and. 166 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 3: Especially, we should fight fraud when figures in our government, 167 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 3: particularly those in power within the White House or agencies, 168 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 3: get rich and profit from their offices. 169 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 1: So not only is he going after you for wanting 170 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: to pay less taxes, he's engaging the old trope of 171 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: Trump and a violation of the Molument's clause that's saying 172 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: that you can't profit from your office. That's in the Constitution. 173 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: He's not focused on the fraud, he's not focused on 174 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: the thieving. He's not focused on the lying. He doesn't 175 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: care about the children. Hey, little children, black and white 176 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: and Asian and Hispanic and Christian and Muslim and Jewish 177 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: and gay and straight. Guess what Representative Garcia, Democrat from California, 178 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: doesn't give a good holy damn about you. He only 179 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: wants to complain about Trump because as a progressive he's 180 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: not allowed to say anything else, because he actually has 181 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: nothing else to say. Can you believe it? But we 182 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: rational people, We actually think you should have a better future. 183 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: And if we're gonna be spending this money. It should 184 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: be spent on you and not these low life scumbags 185 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: who think they can steal from us. We're gonna put 186 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: them on trial. We're gonna throw the Americans in jail. 187 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna take people who aren't Americans who throw them 188 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: out of the country. You're gonna have a better life, 189 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: and don't forget people like Representative Garcia shouldn't get your 190 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: vote because they hate you. And he just told you so. 191 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: You're welcome to start talking to our kids like that. 192 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: You know, I'm right, we gotta start talking to our 193 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: kids like that. What a thing his opening statements, the 194 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: terrible rich people, bad Donald Trump. Neither one of those 195 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: groups of people or those entities have anything to do 196 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: with the fraud. Democrats don't care. 197 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 3: Fraud is never accept and it undermines public trusts whoever 198 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 3: commits it. But let's remember that some of the worst 199 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 3: fraud and corruption is actually found at sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue. 200 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: I'm done, I'm out, I'm out. I thought it was 201 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: gonna be about racism and xenophobia. No shame shame on me. 202 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: You know what, You're right, You're right. How could I 203 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: have missed it. You're totally correct. I screwed it up. 204 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: I am sorry. Of course it was going to be 205 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 1: about Trump. It can't just be about the thing. And this, 206 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: by the way, is why people hate politics, and they 207 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: hate politicians. This should be one hundred percent agreement. We 208 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 1: need to find these fraudsters, we need to arrest them, 209 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: we need to charge them, we need to put them 210 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: on trial, and if found guilty, they need to go 211 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: to jail or be deported. How could we not have 212 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 1: one hundred percent unanimity on the subject. And the only 213 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 1: answer one could come to is some people don't feel 214 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: the same way. Some people are okay with the fraud. 215 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: That's the only answer. And why are they okay with 216 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: the fraud because they don't want to admit out loud 217 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: that somebody who looks a certain way could have done 218 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: a certain thing, because that in and of itself is bigoted, 219 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: it's madness, it's pure nuttery. But that's who they are, 220 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: so twisted and so broken, so devoid any rational thoughts. 221 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: They can't allow themselves to say, I don't care that 222 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: they're black, and I don't care if they're from Africa, 223 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: and I don't care if they're a minority, and I 224 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: don't care if they are a refugee, and I don't 225 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: care if they're and an illegal immigrant. They did something 226 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: wrong and if they have to deal with the consequences, 227 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: they believe there should be no consequences. And you could 228 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: look at it another way. We cannot look at ourselves. 229 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: We cannot address other subjects. We cannot engage with the 230 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: Republicans in a way that shows a unified front to 231 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: the American people against the very concept of fraud. Our 232 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: entire guiding principle is Trump bad, hate Trump, hate Trump, 233 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: more Trump and Trump Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump Trump. And 234 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: let's talk a little bit about Trump. We discussed this yesterday. 235 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: This is their guiding principle. This is who they are, 236 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: This is how they think they're going to win in 237 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six, and this is why they have to lose. 238 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: They can't even call out fraud. And I think that 239 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: what happened with Maduro. I do think, of course the 240 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: economy in this. So I'm gonna play a part in 241 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: the midterms. Don't forget to join me.

I think Hilton pulled off a masterclass 247 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: in crisis management PR by dealing with this franchise that 248 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: wouldn't allow members of ICE or Homeland Security to stay 249 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: in their hotel in Minneapolis, by first stating, hey, these 250 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: are not our values. We allow this, and then when 251 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 1: being confronted with the evidence that while the franchise named 252 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: Everpeak Hospitality, claimed they were solving the issue, the evidence 253 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: showed that they weren't. So Hilton said, we are not 254 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: putting up with that. You're gone as a franchise Z. 255 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: You're not on our website. Forget it. It was quick, 256 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: it was decisive, it was no nonsense. It was we're 257 00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: going to protect the brand Tony Katz Cats today. Good 258 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: to be here, good to be with you. Now. They 259 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: could have gone down the road of we're totally with 260 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: the franchise e, we don't want these people in there. 261 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: That would have been a business decision too. If ever 262 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: Peak doesn't want to have members of people who work 263 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: for the government in their hotels. I think they should 264 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 1: be allowed to and you should be allowed, as a 265 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: business owner, not to serve anybody you don't want. You 266 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: don't want to serve liberals, don't serve liberals, you don't 267 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: want to serve blowns, don't serve blones. I believe in 268 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: actual freedom. I'm not looking other people. But what Hilton 269 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: said is no, no, no, that doesn't work for us. 270 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: We serve the people. They haven't done anything wrong. We 271 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: don't ask those questions. We say, here, you give us money, 272 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: we give you hotel room. I as long as you 273 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: don't break the rules that weing entered the contract with. 274 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: You're not causing a disturbance, you're not destroying property, etc. 275 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: Well then we're fine. We don't prejudge you. There are 276 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: no pre cogs here. This isn't minority report. We don't 277 00:17:56,359 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: do those things. The franchise e screws up. Hilton says, 278 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: we don't allow this. We've talked to the franchise e, 279 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: everything's getting resolved, and then find out that the franchise 280 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: e lied. They didn't They didn't like, say well, how 281 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: do we handle this? They said, no, no, no, we 282 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 1: don't get treated like that. You're gone, and one has 283 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: to respect it. It was the business decision that made sense, 284 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 1: because it's also the business decision that now sends itself 285 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: through the entire world of Hilton and all the chains 286 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 1: that they have. Don't lie, don't be dumb. If you 287 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 1: want to be dumb, you can be. No one says 288 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: that ever Peak can't be in business. By the way, 289 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: I would never say that they shouldn't have their license 290 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 1: pulled or anything like that, unless, of course, there are 291 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: rules about who you have to allow into the hotel 292 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: and you have to be opened to everybody, and they 293 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: violated one of those rules. A Masterpiece cake shop get 294 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: sued by Colorado for not decorating a same sex marriage cake. Well, 295 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: ever Peak may have to deal with the consequences of 296 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 1: their actions, But I don't think people should be care 297 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: I think they should be allowed to be in business. 298 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 1: It's just who's going to go there. Well, the federal 299 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: government has already said you're off the list. We don't 300 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: send any of our people there. No government dollars for 301 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: your hotel. Good right and smart. But I'm telling you, 302 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: when this story first broke, the first thing I said, 303 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,479 Speaker 1: is watch the Hilton stock price. And now I'm here 304 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: to tell you I think Hilton's going to be fine. 305 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 1: I think the word has come out and gone out 306 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 1: that they have handled this with a plum and with focus, 307 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: and that's respectable. I would have no issue based on 308 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: everything I know right now, staying in any Hilton hotel anywhere, 309 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: at any time, keep it here. This is Tony Katz today. 310 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: It's not surprising that the White House would have a 311 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: tremendous amount to say. I mean, we're already in the midterms, 312 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: and if you caught Trump a yesterday speaking to that 313 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: Republican retreat at the Kennedy Center, he's talking about the 314 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: ability to win, which is good. It's exactly what he 315 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,719 Speaker 1: should be doing. He's trying to give an uplifting message 316 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: that hey, everything's on our side. Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, 317 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: Good to be here, good to be with you. Find 318 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: everything at Tony kats dot com. I happen to be 319 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: one of the people who believes this. I have made 320 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: the argument that what has to happen is that the 321 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: economy has to just give a couple of things in 322 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: Trump's favor. By July and then you can obtain victory 323 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: even though in normal midterm years the party in power 324 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: loses seats. I think that can change. And there was 325 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: a there was an interesting piece. Oh, I have it somewhere. Oh, 326 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 1: this was Harry Nton. This was Harry Enton at CNN. 327 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: Check this out right here, and you know this to 328 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: be true. That's right now? 329 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Democrats and the minds of the American 330 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 4: public are lower than the dead sea. 331 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: What are we talking about. 332 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 4: Here, Well, let's take a look at the net approval 333 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 4: rating for Democrats in Congress. Satikate ballwin the lowest ever. 334 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: Look at this. 335 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 4: Overall, they are fifty five points underwater. They're approval rating 336 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 4: is south of twenty percent. It's even worse when you 337 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,479 Speaker 4: look at Independence. Look at this negative sixty one points. 338 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 4: That means that they're approval rating is sixty one points 339 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 4: lower than their disapproval rating. Quinnipiac has been pulling this 340 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 4: question for the better part of the twenty first century. 341 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 4: They have never found Democrats, at least those in Congress, 342 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 4: and worse shape than they are right now. 343 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's an opportunity, But that opportunity comes to 344 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: a political reality, and that political reality is an economy 345 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: that's working, but and that normally would have been in 346 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: And the butt that I just put in there, that 347 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: huge giants butt has to do with what happened with Maduro, 348 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: has to do with what's happening with the fraud in Minnesota. 349 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: These things are things that you can win on because 350 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 1: the Left is not playing it properly. They're not saying, 351 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: let's go after the fraud. They're saying, look at what 352 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump has done. They're not saying it's good that 353 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: Maduro is gone because he was killing people and he 354 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: was jailing dissonance and he wasn't the president. They're saying 355 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: he was the president. He's never done anything wrong, and 356 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: Trump bad, even though the Biden Harris team put out 357 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: a twenty five million dollar bounty on the guy. Everything 358 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: they're doing is missing with the American people. They can't 359 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: stop themselves, they cannot help themselves. So it was Caroline 360 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: Levitt engaging in the press briefing and brings with her 361 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: Brooke Rollins, who is the Secretary of Agriculture, and Robert 362 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: Kennedy Jr. The Secretary of Health and Human Services. And 363 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: as I've said, Maha is the key. Maha can help 364 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: you get a win in the midterms. Maha is popular, 365 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: and the left doesn't know how to confront that. 366 00:22:58,720 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 5: Yet. 367 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: Ah is popular, more Kennedy, more honest conversation, and the 368 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: left ones to say, because we cut the vaccine schedule 369 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: from seventeen vaccines to eleven, oh my gosh, it's a 370 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 1: war about vaccines. No, it's the American people saying good, 371 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: we were doing too much. And by the way, it 372 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: doesn't stop you from getting a vaccine. It's just the 373 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: schedule of vaccines and how the CDC recommends. Meanwhile, let's 374 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: listen to what happened in the briefing. 375 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 6: Good morning, Yes, come on up everyone, lovely officials with 376 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 6: me today, all right after Carson, come on up, Thank. 377 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: You so much.

The Trump administration took strong 396 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 6: action to bar hospitals from performing dangerous, irreversible, life altering 397 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 6: transgender procedures on children. The Trump administration announced funding awards 398 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 6: to states through the Rural Health Transformation Program, an unprecedented 399 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 6: fifty billion dollar investment established under President Trump's One Big, 400 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 6: Beautiful Bill. The Trump administration has also worked with eighteen 401 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 6: states across the country to ban junk food purchases using 402 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 6: SNAP benefits starting this year. 403 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: And thank you for leading that effort. 404 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 6: Seth and Jerry Rollins. 405 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: Tell me that MAHA isn't a winner. 406 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 6: Go on. 407 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: The Left can't counter this. Yes, you shouldn't be able 408 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: to use government benefits to buy junk food. This has 409 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: been a conversation for years. Yes, we're worried about children's health. Yes, 410 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: we're putting an end to the transgender nonsense. America in 411 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: the main is like good. They see this as valuable 412 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: and successful. Maha is a winning ticket. And I say, 413 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: this is a guy who still doesn't want Robert Kennedy 414 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: in the cabinet. This is working, and doctor Oz is working, 415 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: and doctor Marque is working. So we understand how to 416 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: approach this with the political left. Allow me. The adults 417 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: are in charge, real medical professionals. People who actually listen 418 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 1: to medical professionals and aren't interested in a narrative, are 419 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: interested in the results. The adults are in charge, and 420 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: the Democrats didn't put them there. 421 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 6: Additionally, President Trump took historic action to secure most favored 422 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 6: nation drug pricing and secured deals with major pharmaceutical companies 423 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 6: to massively lower the cost of prescription drugs, and those 424 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 6: effects are being implemented as we speak. Americans are going 425 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 6: to continue to see the result of these incredible deals. 426 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 6: The President cut and I know President Trump and this 427 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 6: scene behind me worked incredibly hard to lower those drug 428 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 6: costs for Americans. On Monday, the CDC adopted common sense 429 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 6: updates to America's childhood vaccination schedule based solely on the 430 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 6: gold standard of science. This action empowers parents and physicians 431 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 6: to make the best individualized decisions to protect our children, 432 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 6: while also restoring much needed confidence in our public health system. 433 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: And as a MAHA mom myself, I'm. 434 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 6: Very grateful for that, so thank you, Secretary Kennedy. To 435 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 6: build on this progress, Trump administration is now updating federal 436 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 6: nutrition standards and guidelines to ensure that Americans have the 437 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 6: most accurate, data driven information supported by science and hard facts, 438 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 6: not special interests or partisan ideology. President Trump has tasked 439 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 6: two of the great individuals behind me, USDA Secretary Rawlins 440 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 6: and HHS Secretary Kennedy with collaborating on this vitally important project, 441 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 6: and today they are here to officially unveil the twenty 442 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 6: twenty five to twenty thirty Dietary Guidelines for America. These 443 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 6: new guidelines are informed by the best and most reliable 444 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 6: research on health and nutrition, particularly as it relates to 445 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 6: the role of our diets and the prevalence of chronic 446 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 6: disease in the country. They are also these guidelines are 447 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 6: easy to read and understand, so every American young and 448 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 6: old can access this information that literally has the power 449 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 6: to change lives. But these are not just an updated guideline. 450 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 6: These are the foundation to all federal food programs in 451 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 6: our country. These new guidelines are going to update the 452 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 6: food that is served to America's children in our public schools, 453 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,439 Speaker 6: to the plates that are served to our great men 454 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 6: in uniform in our military, our veterans in the food 455 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 6: that they are consuming at the VA. And these new 456 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 6: guidelines are also going to impact nutritional programs for the 457 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 6: needy in our country, such as WICK and Headstart. Unfortunately, 458 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 6: for decades, federal dollars has promoted low quality, highly processed 459 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 6: foods that lead to scores of long term health issues, 460 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 6: which means Americans have gone broke because of these health issues. 461 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 6: Faulty dietary guidelines of the past stacked the deck against 462 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 6: healthy eating and food options for everyday American families, which 463 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 6: has fueled the chronic disease epidemic and jacked up the 464 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 6: healthcare costs of households across the country. 465 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: This is the conversation that has every mom saying, tell 466 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: me more, tell me more, because I noticed that my 467 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: kid eats this, and then they act like that. And 468 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 1: I noticed this with my neighbor's kid, and my mom 469 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: noticed this before her. This is the stuff, not pretending 470 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: that boys can be girls and that mutilating children is 471 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: somehow a value. Just listen to the language. It's the 472 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: kind of stuff that you're talking about. And even if 473 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: you haven't thought about this stuff, which is totally fine, right, 474 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: you could be in a place in life where you're 475 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: not thinking about this stuff. I can appreciate that if 476 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: you thought about it for a moment. Isn't this exactly 477 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: how it would be discussed, not in the maddening type 478 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: of principles, but rather in very rational, rational ways. This 479 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: is how it would be discussed the way people talk. 480 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: These foods are a problem, and they're affecting my children, 481 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: and we need to figure out what exactly the issue. 482 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: Is very very easy to understand here. 483 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 6: This failed approach and our public health system ends today. 484 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 6: When these guidelines are followed, Americans will be saving themselves 485 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 6: thousands of dollars. If we want to cut health care 486 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 6: costs in our country, we must become a healthier country. 487 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 6: According to the CEA, poor diet is the root cause 488 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 6: of obesity, which accounts for four hundred billion dollars in 489 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 6: medical spending each year. A healthier America will lead to 490 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 6: a more affordable America. The new dietary Guidelines from the 491 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 6: Trump administration will ensure federal dollars go to real food 492 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 6: to improve public health and therefore save the American people 493 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 6: their hard earned cash over the course of their lives. 494 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,479 Speaker 6: So with that, I am going to hand it over 495 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 6: to Secretary Kennedy. The great people behind me will give remarks, 496 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 6: and then we'll get into Q and A. For the 497 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 6: officials that are here on this specific topic, they will 498 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 6: leave because they're all very busy people. And then I 499 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 6: will open it up to Q and A the rest 500 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 6: of you on the rest of the news in the world. 501 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 6: So thank you, and we'll start with Secretary Kennedy. 502 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 5: Thank Today marks the decisive change in federal nutrition policy 503 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 5: made possible by President Trump's leadership and the work of 504 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 5: Mohammam's and public health advocates who demanded reform. Today, in 505 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 5: accordance with President Trump's directive, Brooke and I will release 506 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 5: the Dietary Guidelines for Americans twenty twenty five to twenty thirty, 507 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 5: the most significant reset of federal nutrition policy in history. 508 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 5: These guidelines replace corporate driven assumptions with common sense goals 509 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 5: and gold standard scientific integrity. These new guidelines will revolutionize 510 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 5: our nation's food culture and make America healthy again. For decades, 511 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 5: Americans have grown sicker while health care costs have swored. 512 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,239 Speaker 5: The reason is clear. The hard truth is that our 513 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 5: government has been lying to us to protect corporate profit taking, 514 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 5: telling us that these food like substances were beneficial to 515 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 5: public healths. Federal policy promoted and subsidized highly processed foods 516 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 5: and refined carbohydrates and turned a blind eye to the 517 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 5: disastrous consequences. 518 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: Today, the lies stop. 519 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 5: The new guidelines recognize that whole nutrient dense food is 520 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 5: the most effective path to better health and lower health 521 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 5: care costs. Protein and healthy fats are essential, and we're 522 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 5: wrongly discouraged in prior dietary guideline as we are ending 523 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 5: the war upon saturated fats. 524 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: And with that, just that you have voters. You have voters. 525 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: Am I supposed to not note that I'm a big guy, 526 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: I have got waiters, I have my whole life. And 527 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: while that's still true when I eat steak, when I 528 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: eat red meat, I feel better when I eat what 529 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: they say, I'm supposed to eat in this so called 530 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: balanced diet. I feel miserable. Miserable. Are we supposed to 531 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: pretend that the government didn't know what they were doing. 532 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: I want to have a faith in government institutions. I 533 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: want to have a faith in our government in regarding 534 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: Article on Section eight. But what we got was places 535 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: where people go to simply collect a buck and push 536 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: forward a narrative. And that narrative needed to end. And 537 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: what was doesn't mean what is right. It's Kamala Harris. 538 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: We can look to the future unburdened by what has been, well, 539 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: what has been has been crappy policy. And with that 540 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: conversation right there, you're getting voters there. This rollout is 541 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 1: very purposeful. This is midterm talk, and the midterms, I'm 542 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: telling you are up for grabs, up for grabs. I'm 543 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: Tony Kats and this is Tony Kats today. So we're 544 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 1: taking the Venezuelan oil. No, that's wrongly said. That's how 545 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: the left is gonna say it. The sanctioned oil from Venezuela, 546 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: fifty million barrels worth is making its way to the 547 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: United States, where it will then be sold and the 548 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: money divided between the US and Venezuela. Tony Kats, Tony 549 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: Kats today. Good to be here, Good to be with 550 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: you find everything I do over at tonycats dot com. 551 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: I hope you'll be a supporter over there. People are 552 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: gonna say, see, it was a war for oil. It's 553 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: always a war for oil. Booboo. It's always and in 554 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,919 Speaker 1: every way a war for oil. But it wasn't about 555 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 1: us getting the oil. It was about the people being 556 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: able to profit from the oil instead of Maduro being 557 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: able to profit from the oil. And certainly it's about 558 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: keeping it away from the Chinese and the Russians. I 559 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: can't expect the left to engage the way we do, 560 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: which is to say, well, what's actually happening here, not 561 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: what fits the narrative, what's actually going on, What does 562 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: it mean, How does it benefit us? How are we 563 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: better off? And the answer is we're all better off 564 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 1: when the Chinese and the Russians don't have access to 565 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: cheap energy, and certainly Venezuelan and people are better off 566 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: without a guy who wasn't actually the president. I don't 567 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: care what Seth Harp or anybody else says, not the president, 568 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: and we all know it. We all know it. So 569 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: this move on the oil is gonna rub the left 570 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: the wrong way because they won't actually look at it, 571 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: they won't actually engage about it. They'll only emote and 572 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: react to it, which is why you should pay them 573 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 1: no mind whatsoever.
