1 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: Seven hundred WLW twelve thirty nine, Dan Carrolyn for the 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 1: great American Bill Cunningham. Always great to be here for Willie, 3 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: and always great to have a chance to have a 4 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: conversation with my next guest, Scott Powell, is one of 5 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: the all time great guests at seven hundred WLW. He's 6 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: an entrepreneur, he's a historian. His book is Rediscovering America, 7 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: number one bestseller. He's a senior fellow at the Discovery Institute. 8 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,279 Speaker 1: And Scott Powell, it is great to have you back 9 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: on seven hundred WW. 10 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 2: Well, thank you, Jan and it's great to be with 11 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 2: you and your audience. 12 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: Thank you so much. You know, we live in interesting times, 13 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: and in my experience, here we are. It's Friday afternoon. 14 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: It was Tuesday night when Trump gave his State of 15 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: the Union speech, and in my experience it has been 16 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: that the president makes a State of the Union speech, 17 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: gets a pretty big splash, it's something good to talk 18 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: about for the next twelve, maybe forty eight hours. But 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,479 Speaker 1: here we are on this Friday afternoon, after the State 20 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 1: of the Union address on Tuesday night, and I've still 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 1: got people who want to talk about what Trump said 22 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: on Tuesday Night, and especially in recent years, in the 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: recent I don't know, last three or four administrations, that 24 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: has not been the case with any State of the 25 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: Union address I can remember. 26 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: And there's good reason for that, because people since that 27 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: this is a different man. This is not a traditional 28 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 2: politician by any means. He's an outsider. He speaks honestly. 29 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 2: He's not perfect, but he's a breath of fresh air, 30 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 2: and he's offering real hope, substantive hope to the people. 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 2: And when's the last time that a politician really offered 32 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: the kind of substance that Trump is doing. He's going 33 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 2: against the current He wants to eliminate income tax replace 34 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: it with tariffs, which, by the way, were used in 35 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: the early history of America. America's greatest economic boom was 36 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 2: in the eighteen hundreds. There was no income tax. Then 37 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:16,239 Speaker 2: there were terriffs. So he's very creative and and he's 38 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 2: created these you know, these accounts, these government accounts for 39 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: for newborn kids. If people sign up that there'll be 40 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: a you know, a deposit made in in you know, 41 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 2: in their account for the future. I mean, this is 42 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 2: you know, he's basically said, look, if you want to 43 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: come to America. You're a foreigner, I've got a you know, 44 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: I've got got special visa. I forget what he calls it, 45 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: you know, but it's you pay five million dollars you've 46 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 2: got to you can come into the United States. 47 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: That's the Trump and Trump Gold Card, which I think 48 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: is a great idea. Apparently they're going out the door too. 49 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: People are buying them up. Yeah. 50 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, and they do vetting on you better 51 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: be sure. So they're not going to be letting any 52 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 2: five million dollar criminals in. They're going to be letting 53 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 2: only people that have approven business track record and can 54 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 2: pay the high entry fee. And they figure, well, if 55 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 2: they've got five million, they've got money behind that, then 56 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,399 Speaker 2: they want to come here to do business and help 57 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,679 Speaker 2: us out. I mean, we are a country of immigrants, 58 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: so let's get really good immigrants coming into America instead 59 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 2: of instead of the riff raff and the criminals out 60 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:30,519 Speaker 2: of Somalia. 61 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: And that's the one thing that I have constantly said 62 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: about Trump is that Trump is a businessman. And if 63 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: you listen to him speak, what I get from him 64 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: is that he says it in different ways all the time. 65 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: Is that peace is better for business than war. And 66 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: when he was at one of the one of the 67 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: conferences I might have been the G twelve or the 68 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: g SE whatever conference, he essentially said as much they 69 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: talked about war is good for there are some businesses 70 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: that war is good for, but overall, when you talk 71 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: about an overall economy, peace is much better. So he 72 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: would much rather have peace. And I think that this 73 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: Board of Peace that he created is going to wind 74 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: up to be something very historic and very significant. If 75 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: this is this is the ideal that they're going to 76 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: try and and pursue for god, you know, for however 77 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: long that this board stays around. I mean, their what's 78 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: their mission? Their mission is peace? 79 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, now what what I would agree, and that would 80 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: be my optimism because I think it is a good thing. 81 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: But what we've learned is that the deep state is 82 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: truly deep, and it's very broad and the the the 83 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 2: interest behind the deep state is big money that want 84 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: to rig the system to keep you know, to keep 85 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 2: the game going. It's gotten you know, that's made them wealthy. 86 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: And so you take the pharmaceutical industry for instance. You know, 87 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: we really have not only a military industrial complex, but 88 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 2: we have a you know, a medical pharmaceutical industrial complex 89 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 2: that basically prospers most when people are kept ill. In 90 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 2: other words, there's even resistance to finding cures for cancer 91 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 2: because they make so much money on cancer. And you 92 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 2: can go down the list of all the ailments that 93 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 2: if there are huge cash cows for the industry and vaccinations. 94 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 2: Of course, you know that we've all woken up to 95 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 2: the fact that the COVID vaccine had a lot of 96 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 2: harmful ingredients in there, and it appears to be a 97 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: bio weapon. And if we listen to Bill Gates, well 98 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,679 Speaker 2: we learn that he's very comfortable with vaccines that helped 99 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 2: thin the population because he believes that, you know, the 100 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 2: population of the world is too large, and so it's 101 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 2: a good way. We won't we won't call it genocide, 102 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: but it is a partial genocide because in in well 103 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: administered vaccine programs for this purpose, not everyone dies, but 104 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: enough to die that you sin the population or they 105 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: get incapacitated. I mean, women that took the COVID vaccine 106 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: now are having a hard time with pregnancy. You know that, 107 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: don't you? 108 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: Uh, I have, I'll be honest, I've not read a 109 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: lot about that, but it would not surprise me. I've 110 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: I've seen I've seen all kinds of different reporting about 111 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: the unintended side effects of taking the will On vaccine. 112 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, so anyway, but but so we have to be 113 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 2: we we have to be on guard of these forces 114 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 2: that want to co opt and corrupt. Uh, you know, 115 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 2: new initiatives like like the Peace Board, because you get 116 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: you know, you get some people on there that appear 117 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: to be for piece, but they actually would prefer to 118 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: keep a war based foreign policy going. Yeah, because that's 119 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: been you know, that's that's that's that's been in place 120 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 2: for so long. When you really go back and study 121 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 2: our history, it's it's incredible. Most of the wars we've 122 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 2: been involved in for the last fifty years have been 123 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: really really a result of the military industrial complex. 124 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. When when you look at the current military build 125 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: up that we have in the Middle East right now, 126 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: and you look at the situation with with Iran and 127 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: possible regime change there, what what what do you see 128 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: right now as the best case scenario? 129 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 2: Think, well, the the Iranian situation is really really unique 130 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: in that the we'll just call it the Mullah regime. 131 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: So you have the I forget who the top guy's 132 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: name is, but he's sort of the uh Komane Kimani. Yeah, yeah, 133 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 2: it's changed because it hasn't been the same one, but 134 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 2: the latest one of the Comenai or something. He's not 135 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: the old Kamani, but he's the next. But there's a 136 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: whole big class of mulla's all around them, and they're 137 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 2: the ones who benefit from this regime. And uh so 138 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: it's doing a surgical strike to take out uh, you know, 139 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 2: the the top people, which is what we accomplished. Well, 140 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 2: we we only really seize Maduro in Venezuela. The other 141 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 2: crooks still in place, and you know, Trump's got to 142 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 2: have a plan to basically get that country clean of 143 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 2: all these you know, bad actors so that the people 144 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 2: can choose their own government because right now that you know, 145 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 2: they haven't had an election since Maduro was removed. And 146 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: and uh but the the Iran situation, mean, first of all, 147 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 2: they're they're heavily armed, and we're in a we're in 148 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 2: a tough place right now because we've you know, we've 149 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 2: assembled you know, the largest military naval presence I think 150 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 2: since the first Gulf War. So we're there poised to 151 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 2: strike and but we're having these negotiations, and you know, 152 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 2: if we don't strike, you know, even if we get 153 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 2: a reasonably good negotiation, they will view it as a victory. 154 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 2: Iran run as the as a victory, and it will 155 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 2: only strengthen the regime. I think probably the best thing 156 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 2: to do would be would be the do air air 157 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 2: drops of weapons to the to the people of Iran. 158 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: That's that's a good idea. And because yeah, and uh, 159 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: you know, maybe there was a on Trump's part, there 160 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: was a little bit of a miscalculation here by promising 161 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: all this assistance to the people who were on the 162 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,839 Speaker 1: streets and standing up against the tyrannical government there. And 163 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 1: it may be you know, following through on that promises 164 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,239 Speaker 1: probably turned out to be much harder than we anticipated. 165 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: But I would also suspect that there are forces and 166 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,719 Speaker 1: operations going on that that we don't know about that 167 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: may come. 168 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, if if there weren't you know, the 169 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 2: the you know, the the National security State wouldn't be 170 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 2: operating because they have to be they things can't be known. 171 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: You know, there was all this human cry when we 172 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: you know, when we suddenly uh you know, seized Maduro 173 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 2: and and got him, you know, captured him and removed him. Well, 174 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 2: you know, Congress wasn't informed. You know, this was wrong. This, 175 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: you know, this was a violation of the War Powers Act. This, that, 176 00:10:55,720 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 2: and the other thing. If if that operation had been 177 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: leaked to Congress, it never could have taken place. 178 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, kid, Okay, We've got a lot of people 179 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: in Congress who are looking out for their own self 180 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: interest first, and the interest of the of the country 181 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: comes in a distant second. You wrote a piece entitled 182 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 1: stalling of the Save Act is actually a gift, And 183 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about that because everyone I've 184 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: talked to and as I look at the Save Act, 185 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you and I have talked before 186 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: at length about having integrity when it comes to our 187 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,719 Speaker 1: elections and how there are a few things really when 188 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: you talk about the republic that we have, that there 189 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: are really few things, if anything, more important than American 190 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: people having confidence in their elections. So when you talk 191 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: about the stalling of passing the Save Act as a gift, 192 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,719 Speaker 1: how explain what that means to me? 193 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 2: Well, it can't be stalled for too long. You know, 194 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 2: it's now getting a lot of debate and it's you know, 195 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 2: it's unclear that the Senate will will allow it to 196 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 2: come to the floor, and that would be that would 197 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 2: be a travesty. But simultaneous to this, there's a lot 198 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:15,719 Speaker 2: of explosive proof of election fraud that's coming out out 199 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 2: of Fulton County, Georgia at Arizona's next, I mean the vote, 200 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: the vote fraud it is. I would remind everybody that 201 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: the corruption is so broad and so deep permitting our 202 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: political class that they could run an operation since the 203 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: two thousand election where most people are convinced that there 204 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 2: was no vote fraud. That's how strong their operation was. 205 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 2: The media wouldn't pick it up, the judges wouldn't hear it. 206 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 2: When when if you just use common sense, you know 207 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 2: there was massive vote fraud in twenty. 208 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: Twenty eighty one million votes. I don't think so. 209 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 2: No, there's no way that they Biden could get eighty 210 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 2: one million votes. That's a record number of votes. First 211 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 2: of all, I mean it's way above any prior you know, presidential. 212 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: Win you're a historian. If Joe Biden actually got eighty 213 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: one million votes, wouldn't there be books written, wouldn't there 214 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: be documentaries done? Wouldn't there be universities that would study 215 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: this inside and out about how Joe Biden was able 216 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: to mobilize the greatest political movement we've ever seen in 217 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: the United States and get eighty one million votes. Where 218 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: is all that stuff? 219 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 2: It doesn't exist, doesn't exist. Basically, what we're subjected to 220 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 2: in our country are just ongoing psyops, you know, psychological 221 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 2: operations through the media that convinced enough of the American 222 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 2: people that there's nothing to see here. And it's incredible 223 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 2: how successful they are. But it's not working anymore. They 224 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 2: don't work under Trump. 225 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 3: You know. 226 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 2: Trump's greatest accomplishment in this first term was to leave 227 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: office when most Americans were condensed that you know, the 228 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 2: media was fake, actually by repeating it over and over 229 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 2: and over again. Uh and and and then the election 230 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 2: fraud took place, and so and and COVID took place. 231 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 2: You know, Americans have all woken up that you know 232 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 2: that we are not being told the truth about a 233 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 2: lot of things, important things, our health, elections were being 234 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 2: lied to, and we have so much corruption. Uh So 235 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 2: it's you know, it's the media is corrupt, but you 236 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 2: know our judicial system is corrupt. It's so obvious to 237 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 2: everyone that we have a two tier justice system where 238 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: if you're a Democrat, you know, you get off, if 239 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 2: you're a Republican you get prosecuted. 240 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: That's pretty that's that's pretty much the size of things that. 241 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: We've had, absolutely and everybody can see it now. So 242 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: we're on the cusp of a lot of things. So 243 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 2: the other you quoted that article about the Save Act 244 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: that there were two other parts of that article. I 245 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: said there were three things that the Trump administration and 246 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 2: it isn't that Donald Trump can do at all, but 247 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: he has to make sure his cabinet and the agencies 248 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: carry out certain things. The second thing that I said 249 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 2: needed to be done is there need to be not 250 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: just verbal illusions and grand and grand juries that are 251 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 2: formed and you've got you, We've got to have people 252 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: going to jail who committed high crime. 253 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 4: Absolutely outside that's got to be seen. 254 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: By the American people, and it has to happen before 255 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 2: you know, the midterm election. 256 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 1: The people that I talked to on a regular basis, 257 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: that is the most the number one most frustrating thing 258 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: is that we see this complete lack of accountability that 259 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 1: it seems that you can't commit these crimes and do 260 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: these things, and no one pays the price for it. 261 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: But Scott Powell, we're gonna have to leave it right there. 262 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: I can't tell you how much how great it is 263 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: to hear your voice again and to talk to you again. 264 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: And I hope we don't wait so long before we 265 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: do it again down. 266 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 2: Well, you know, my book Rediscovering America is sort of 267 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 2: more important now than ever before, and it's it's timeless. 268 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 2: Everything I wrote in there is, you know, provides a 269 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 2: roadmap on how to you know, get our country back. 270 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, Rediscovering America wherever you buy books.

Thanks for having me back, Dan anytime. 286 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: Let me before we get into the meat of our discussion, 287 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: let me get your general overall take from the State 288 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 1: of the Union address this past Tuesday night. 289 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 5: Happily, so I'd say, and it'll be brief, but a 290 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 5: couple of comments that come out here is right now, 291 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 5: you know, you can put aside all the hysterical media headlines. 292 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 5: Right the media is trying its best to focus on 293 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 5: you know, Ice is out of control and it's a 294 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 5: fascist task force, blah blah blah. But what really happened 295 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty four and delivered a huge victory to 296 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 5: the Trump Vance campaign, right, was the Republican Party was 297 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 5: correctly seen as not the extremist party but the normal party. 298 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 4: Right, Like, we're against trans and case kids. 299 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 5: We want to have like an actual national boarder so 300 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 5: we can control who comes in and now, and the 301 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 5: Democrats looked crazy, right, And so that's the continued fight 302 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 5: as we head into the midterms, as we head into 303 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 5: twenty twenty eight, who's the party that captures the votes 304 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 5: of just kind of normal Americans who are not particularly political, 305 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,239 Speaker 5: but they don't want a country that's insane. So as 306 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 5: much as the media wants to make it look like 307 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 5: the Republican Party is this far right dangerous party, it 308 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 5: is the party of normal right now, and keeping that 309 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 5: image is really important. So I think there Trump really 310 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 5: hit it out of the park right just to focus 311 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 5: on here's what we've done, Here's how we're delivering for 312 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 5: ordinary Americans. These are the issues, and then we can 313 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 5: get in a little bit to the messaging. But I 314 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 5: think just on the whole, the theme was right on. 315 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, I agree with you. And I was 316 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: looking at some of the some of the counter programming 317 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: that was going on to the State of the Union 318 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean, and you talk about you talk 319 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: about you know which party is the party that looks normal. 320 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: I saw one of the events where they had had 321 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: people in frog costumes. They are up there bouncing around 322 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: the stage. There was a guy in a giraffe outfit 323 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: and he's singing some idiotic song. You had people like 324 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: Ed Markey and Primila Jaya Paul out there talking about 325 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 1: still wanting to you mentioned trans kids, They still want 326 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: to engage in this butchery of children. And you know, 327 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: the Trump administration has just shown outstanding leadership on that 328 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: issue and bringing this this barbaric practice to an end. 329 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: But it is it is amazing, just the crazy kind 330 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 1: of stuff that they are that they are advocating these days. 331 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: And the one thing I really found interesting was I 332 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: saw a clip of Bill Clinton from one of his 333 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 1: State of Union speeches, and he is on a diatribe 334 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: talking about and he's using the term illegal aliens coming 335 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: into this country taking up our resources, taking up jobs, 336 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: costing hospitals and schools, all this money, talking about how 337 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: we are going to send more resources and more money 338 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: to close the border and stop this invasion from happening. 339 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: And so he says this during his State of the 340 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: Union speech, and the entire audience stands up in applause, 341 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: Republicans and Democrats alike. But when Trump talks about it 342 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: in actually language that is a lot less harsh than 343 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 1: what Bill Clinton had to say, well, they can't have 344 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: any of that. 345 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's amazing. Yeah, you know, it's a fascinating thing. 346 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 5: I think partially this is just who who the left 347 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 5: has become. I think they actually a lot of the 348 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 5: party leaders are actually this extreme. But the other related 349 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 5: issue there is they've just lost. 350 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 4: Control of their base. Right. 351 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 5: It used to be that the Democrat machine worked, right, 352 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 5: Like twenty sixteen, Bernie Sanders comes charging in and gets 353 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 5: a lot of ground swelled support, and the machine comes 354 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 5: in and basically just make sure that Hillary Clinton is 355 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 5: the nominee. I don't know if they have that power anymore. 356 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 5: I think the far left lunacy has deep enough in 357 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 5: the party structure. I don't think they can prevent that. Again, 358 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 5: Like I wouldn't be shocked if it's AOC twenty two. 359 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 5: The Democrat Party is a different thing than it was, 360 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 5: as you said, definitely in the Clinton era, but even 361 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 5: ten fifteen years ago. But you're right in the optics 362 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 5: are amazing, and I think here Trump did something brilliant 363 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 5: the you know, I mean, obviously you watched it. Our 364 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 5: listeners here have mostly watched The State. 365 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 4: Of the Union. But it wasn't just that he was 366 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 4: making the party look normal. 367 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 5: He Trump's TV genius really handed all of the vulnerable 368 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 5: vulnerable Republicans heading into this midterm brilliant attack ads right 369 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 5: to be able to say, like, we can all agree 370 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 5: that parents shouldn't lose their kids if they don't want 371 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 5: to trans them, right, And then you know, you zoom 372 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 5: in on the Democrat looking angry and sitting there and 373 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,479 Speaker 5: not standing up, and then Trump, you know, oh crazy, 374 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 5: these people are crazy. 375 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 4: I mean masterful television. 376 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 5: And every Republican in a vulnerable seat who does not 377 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 5: use this stuff as for campaign ads is committing malpractice. 378 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: Maybe that's why so many Democrats didn't show up for that, 379 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: because they knew that that was coming and they didn't 380 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: want to have that video out there of them. 381 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that came. Jeffries kind of wishes that 382 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 4: none of his Democrats had shown up. 383 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: Just looking like frauds and the fools that they are. 384 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: So so Donald Trump says that I'm officially announcing the 385 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: War on Fraud, to be led by our great Vice 386 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: President Jad Evans. You know, I had on a guest 387 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: on my show the other night, Todd Sheets, and he's 388 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 1: been involved in investment banking, real estate mergers, a high finance, political, 389 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: political and economic analysis for for years now. And I 390 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: asked him if he was surprised by the amount of 391 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: fraud that has been uncovered in just about every aspect 392 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: of a government. If there's if there's money changing hands, 393 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: Frank de Vito from one section of government to anyone else, 394 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: it seems like there was built in fraud to these programs. 395 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 4: And so. 396 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: This is a guy who's been there, done that scene 397 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 1: at all. And he said, and I've even had politicians 398 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: that were in Congress, you know, to ten, fifteen, twenty 399 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: years tell me that they were aware that fraud was 400 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: going on. But the numbers that have come out have 401 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: are absolutely staggering to them. So this is a huge deal. 402 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: And you've got jd. Vance who is now going to 403 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: lead the way on this. And I don't know. I 404 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: don't know, Frank DeVito. I mean, it seems a little 405 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: risky because his predecessor really set a high bar for 406 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: forgetting things accomplished. And she, yeah, she was in office, didn't. 407 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,959 Speaker 1: I mean, can he live up to that level of expectation. 408 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good comparison. I was definitely going to 409 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 4: go there with border Zaar Kamala Harris. 410 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 5: You can't help it, right, So a couple of things, 411 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 5: for one, on the fraud issue itself. I mean this 412 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 5: is this is a case for for limited for local government, right, 413 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 5: because when you have all these vehicles, like why in 414 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 5: the world are we sending my tax dollars to the 415 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,880 Speaker 5: treasury so the treasury can put them through congressional appropriation, 416 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 5: send them back to the states, and then the states 417 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 5: administer these local programs, Like don't these things really belong 418 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 5: in the domain of like the states and localities in 419 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 5: the first place, Like why not cut out the middleman 420 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 5: so we don't have all of this leakage, Like just 421 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 5: have the state governments raise their money to put on 422 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 5: their social programs. 423 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 4: But I digress. I mean, the fraud is huge. 424 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 5: It doesn't help that you have all these steps where 425 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 5: the money flows here and there and everywhere. But to 426 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 5: the question about advance, it's really it's an interesting opportunity, 427 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 5: and I think a really important one because it will 428 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,959 Speaker 5: help to define you leading into a likely presidential run, 429 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 5: as we saw with border Zark Kamala. Right that one 430 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 5: of the big asterisks, and I talk about this a 431 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 5: little bit in my book, is that you can see 432 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 5: somebody's priorities, you can see how they've campaigned, you can 433 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 5: see how they've run as a senator or a VP, 434 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 5: But you don't know what kind of president someone's going 435 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 5: to be until they actually take executive authority and do 436 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 5: something right. So it's a huge opportunity. I mean, fraud 437 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 5: is a big deal. Vance is an accomplished, smart guy, 438 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 5: but we haven't really seen him execute on laws before. 439 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 5: This is this is a big chance to actually get 440 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 5: something done. And you're right, the bar is low to 441 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 5: do better than his predecessor as a czar of something 442 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 5: or other. 443 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 4: I like his chances. I mean, we've already seen it 444 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 4: come out. 445 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 2: Right. 446 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 5: They did the initial fraud investigations and paused a bunch 447 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 5: of medicaid money flowing into Minnesota for obvious reasons. 448 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 4: So I think this is great. 449 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 5: It allows Vance to step out into an actual leadership 450 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 5: role and get some exposure for it. 451 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the press conference that he had immediately after 452 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: the following day of the State of the Union address, 453 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: and he was there with doctor memon Oz and they 454 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: were talking about how they're going to get rolling on 455 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: this effort. In in Oz is a guy that has 456 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: seen this up close and personal, and I don't know 457 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: if he saw any of that. Of course, It didn't 458 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 1: get reported on by any of any of the major networks, 459 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 1: but I saw the raw video of the press availability 460 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: and mementav is just I mean, you talk about intensity, 461 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: You talk about a guy that is passionate about and 462 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: he's seen all the medicare, the medicaid fraud, the just 463 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: the horrific consequences that this has had, and how much 464 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 1: more could be available well to people who really need 465 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: it if we didn't have billions and billions of dollars 466 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: with the fraud connected to these programs. So I think 467 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: that is that is going to be a great team 468 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: that is going to hopefully not just uncover this and 469 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: expose it, but also wind up getting some accountability for 470 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: the people who have engaged in this kind of stuff. 471 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great point. I mean, you have to 472 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 4: really humanize these issues. 473 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 5: This is not just a you know, a budget item 474 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 5: for budget hawks to obsess over. 475 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 4: You're right to your point about that press conference. 476 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 5: This is about actual, vulnerable, poor, underserved Americans having taxpayer 477 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 5: dollars that are flagged for their medical care and instead 478 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 5: it's being siphoned off here, there and everywhere, right through 479 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 5: fraud given to legal immigrants and it's just completely out 480 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 5: of control and it's a really sad human story. 481 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:50,959 Speaker 4: All right. 482 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: So Gavin Newsom is out there and he is going 483 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: these days. Obviously he's going to run for president. He's 484 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: going in front of any anyone that will have him, 485 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: in front of any camera that he can find. And 486 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 1: here's what he said about JD. Vance earlier this week. 487 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: He said, Vance, for whatever reason, scares me almost more 488 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: than Trump. He said, I mean, talk about a guy 489 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: who puts on a mask and his face grew into it. 490 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: He said.

And for 536 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 5: him to look at Vance's like this all American success 537 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 5: story and call him the shape shifter weirdo, it just 538 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 5: plays so badly. 539 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is when you put it like that, it 540 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: does look like just another chapter out of the left 541 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: liberal and Democrat playbook when it comes to trying to 542 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: demonize your opponent. And of course there's no substance to it. 543 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: But this is the kind of stuff, you know. I mean, 544 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: the Hill likes to run with stuff like this, and 545 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: others are going to pick up on this, so I 546 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: think this is just the beginning, because I think we're 547 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: at a point now where I think little by little 548 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: we are really starting to see the emergence within this 549 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: administration of j. D. Vance and everything he is doing 550 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: is a little more high profile now. And then he 551 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: made a major economic speech in Wisconsin yesterday and everything 552 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: I've seen, and it was actually I was on the 553 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: air when the speech was going on. I had it 554 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: on the TV, but I didn't have the sound up. 555 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: But everything I've heard about that speech and read about 556 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 1: that speech, it's getting either that kind of stuff is 557 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,959 Speaker 1: getting great reviews. And so when you have people like Newsome, 558 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: when you have people like Bernie Sanders, when you have 559 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: people like AOC, they mine those things for ammunition to 560 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: try and attack Jade Vance. And if they can't find 561 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: anything that is legitimate, well they'll just make stuff up. 562 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 6: Yep. 563 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, that seems to be the playbook. 564 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: Isn't it great? Isn't it great? That's the world we 565 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: live in these days. 566 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's a world of vicious lies and 567 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 5: slander and calumny and attacks. And if there's not anything 568 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 5: there that's true, you still need negative press. 569 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: So you just pick something yeah, yeah, and you see 570 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: headlines about the Washington Post, how they lost a hundred 571 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: million dollars last year, and you wonder how that happened. 572 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 5: Shocking because when journalists aren't doing journalism, nobody bothers with 573 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 5: it anymore. 574 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: All right, well, Frank, I'll tell you what we got 575 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: to run, Frank DeVito.

Yeah, 818 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 1: you know, we went through the ts say we did 819 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,879 Speaker 1: the TSA screening there at the stadium right, then got 820 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 1: on the bus correct took the bus to the airport 821 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: with a las escort, with the police escort. Right, didn't 822 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 1: even go through the terminal, rolled right up to the airplane, right, 823 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: walked right up the steps. They shut the doors, boom, 824 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: and away we. 825 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 7: All we did was turn around and waved everybody as 826 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 7: we left, like the President does. 827 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: And then when you get to you know, Pittsburgh or Baltimore, Atlanta, 828 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,800 Speaker 1: wherever you're going, right, you get off the airplane, you 829 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 1: get back on the bus, another police escort, and you're 830 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,320 Speaker 1: whipping along the highway at like ninety miles an hour, bingo, 831 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 1: passing everybody up so that that police got the intersections block. 832 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 1: So you're like, you know, you're like the President, zooming 833 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 1: along right, and you get to the hotel. Look at 834 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: he split. It's amazing. 835 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 7: But Jeff does a great job with travel. I disagree 836 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 7: with that one hundred percent. 837 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:54,560 Speaker 1: Head coach a general manager C team ownership. I think 838 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,800 Speaker 1: they have one. Do they have a GM or I 839 00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:01,879 Speaker 1: guess Duke Tobin is player Parsonnella whatever they think that's 840 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 1: whatever they call them team ownership D A D plus 841 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 1: for team ownership. But I'm looking at the places like 842 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,879 Speaker 1: let's see Atlanta Falcons, treatment of families B plus, home 843 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: game field C.

Game home? 845 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: That says home game field. So in Baltimore they got 846 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 1: an A for a home game field. In Buffalo home 847 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:37,439 Speaker 1: game field F Carolina pants they go through too many 848 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: tables or something with home game field. I guess they're 849 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:42,840 Speaker 1: talking about the condition of the of the field they 850 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 1: play on. Home game field F. Where's F? That's Carolina Panthers, 851 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:55,279 Speaker 1: Carolina and F. Then we got how can you go 852 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:59,760 Speaker 1: wrong if you're playing on turf?

When it comes to 984 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 1: testimony about corruption within the Biden administration, When I hear 985 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:38,480 Speaker 1: testimony about fraud associated with you name the government program. 986 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 1: When I hear testimony about how the great institutions of America, 987 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 1: like the CIA and the FBI have been compromised and 988 00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:51,280 Speaker 1: used for political purposes. I've heard all this jaw dropping 989 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 1: testimony over the last couple of years about people dropping 990 00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 1: dime whistleblowers to you talking about the irs and how they, 991 00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:03,759 Speaker 1: you know, violated their own regulations so certain Democrats could 992 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:07,080 Speaker 1: get cut some slack. It's great to have all this information, 993 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 1: It's great to have all these revelations. But for God's sake, 994 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: can we at least for once have some accountability. Can 995 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 1: we have people who broke these rules, who broke these laws, 996 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 1: who violated the rules, who stole from the American government? 997 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 1: Can we Is it too much to ask to have 998 00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:30,239 Speaker 1: some of these perpetrators face justice and get what's coming 999 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 1: to them. 1000 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:33,879 Speaker 4: So that's a great question. 1001 00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 3: I think that is one of the most fundamental questions 1002 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:39,719 Speaker 3: we're facing right now. The way I look at it 1003 00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 3: is we have been and not just Republicans, not just conservatives, 1004 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:48,800 Speaker 3: across the board. People have wanted more accountability and government. 1005 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,960 Speaker 3: They want government waste cut. We disagree on what waste is, 1006 00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 3: but both sides want waste cut and dan It seems 1007 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 3: no matter who we vote for, they tell us they're 1008 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 3: going to do what we want and then they don't. 1009 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 6: Now, we've. 1010 00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 3: We've had times where we've done okay on this, nineteen 1011 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 3: ninety four, nineteen ninety six, even in nineteen ninety eight 1012 00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 3: we started getting a balanced budget. We've made progress, but 1013 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:22,760 Speaker 3: we have vaxlidden for almost thirty years now. The Brents 1014 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 3: have had this problem for about fifty years now, where 1015 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:29,919 Speaker 3: every time they voted for less immigration, every time they've 1016 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 3: been told, oh yeah, we'll get immigration under control, every 1017 00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 3: time it's gotten worse. So the fundamental question that you 1018 00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 3: it's behind what you just asked, is what do you do. 1019 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 4: In a liberal democracy? 1020 00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 3: Small l I know we're a constitutional republic, but the 1021 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 3: technical term liberal democracy, what do you do in a 1022 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 3: Western democracy? 1023 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 4: Wouldn't say it that way. 1024 00:56:56,239 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 3: When the politicians lie to you, no matter who they are, 1025 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 3: because the typical answer to that is, oh, well, you 1026 00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:05,400 Speaker 3: vote out the liars and you vote on. 1027 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 4: The new people. 1028 00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:11,359 Speaker 3: The problem is, we're not finding just a whole lot 1029 00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:14,880 Speaker 3: of new people who can fix this. We've got some, 1030 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 3: there's a smattering, but we can't even get the Dad 1031 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 3: Gum Save Act passed. Now, the Stay of America Act, 1032 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 3: we can't even get that passed. So the fundamental question 1033 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 3: is what do you do in a liberal democracy? What 1034 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 3: do you do in a constitutional republic? In a Western democracy, 1035 00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 3: when no matter how you vote, you're told one thing 1036 00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:41,919 Speaker 3: and the outcome is the opposite of what you voted 1037 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 3: for and the way they told you. That raises some 1038 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:49,680 Speaker 3: really really really fundamental and very scary questions that nobody. 1039 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 4: Wants to face. 1040 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 3: And the other thing, I'm that's just been I've been 1041 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 3: obsessing over Dan, I'm filmbustering. Stop me whenever you need 1042 00:57:59,000 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 3: me to shut up. 1043 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:00,560 Speaker 1: But much you're go. 1044 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 3: Get a cup of coffee and she'll out check your tag. 1045 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, go for it, go for it. 1046 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 3: I'll tell you a crazy story about something like that 1047 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:20,160 Speaker 3: one day. But uh, but yeah, the other thing I'm 1048 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 3: obsessing over is, uh, essentially, what we've got is we. 1049 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:29,040 Speaker 4: Have an entire society except for the maga. 1050 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,800 Speaker 3: Core even then a little bit. We've got the entire 1051 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 3: society that has become toddlers where they want just exactly 1052 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 3: what they want right now. They're completely emotionally driven. They 1053 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:43,640 Speaker 3: don't understand why they can't have what they have right now. 1054 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 3: They always pick up the story at the point that 1055 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 3: makes them look the best. Uh, when they complain about 1056 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,920 Speaker 3: their little brother hitting them, they never mentioned that they 1057 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 3: threw water on him first. You know, they always pick 1058 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 3: up in the middle of the store. There is no accountability. 1059 00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:06,240 Speaker 3: These are toddlers, and we don't seem to have enough 1060 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 3: parents to say, uh no, you can't spend our entire 1061 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 3: grocery budget on in the toy section at Walmart. 1062 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 6: We can't do that. 1063 00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,000 Speaker 4: We're able to eat if you do that. 1064 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 3: We don't have people doing that. 1065 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 1: Let me give you a clear example of the kind 1066 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 1: of thing I'm talking about. The other day, it snowed 1067 00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:28,400 Speaker 1: in New York City, and I think, and I think 1068 00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:31,439 Speaker 1: the whole thing with my dommy, you know, telling people 1069 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 1: you need two or three or four forms of ID 1070 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 1: to be able to come and shovel snow. 1071 00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:40,439 Speaker 3: But Dan, Dan remember remember at least that people dead 1072 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:42,600 Speaker 3: in the snow, most of them were addicts. 1073 00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 1: That's true. They have that going for Yeah, they're just 1074 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 1: you know, they's just nineteen nineteen dead when the snowstore 1075 00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: comes in. That that's not on the mayor. But we 1076 00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:56,440 Speaker 1: had we have this specter a couple of days ago 1077 00:59:56,720 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 1: of uniformed New York City Police officers who were out 1078 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 1: there and they are being pelted by people throwing snowballs 1079 01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:08,919 Speaker 1: and ice. I'm reading in the New York coast where 1080 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 1: some of these individuals were taking rocks and putting them 1081 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:14,680 Speaker 1: inside of snowballs. So these things could have done some 1082 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 1: real damage to these New York City Police officers York 1083 01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 1: and Mondani comes out and says, oh, it just looked like, 1084 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 1: you know, kids having a snowball fight. Well, you know, 1085 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:29,960 Speaker 1: and we used to have rules when assaulting a police 1086 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:33,000 Speaker 1: officer used to be frowned upon. And there was one 1087 01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: individual who was identified. Took him to court this morning 1088 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:41,040 Speaker 1: and then all charges are dismissed against this guy who 1089 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 1: was clearly throwing chunks of ice and snowballs and hitting 1090 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:49,200 Speaker 1: police officers, uniformed police officers in the face. That's an 1091 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:51,760 Speaker 1: assault on a police officer. And yet we let this 1092 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 1: get excused. So this is just one example, one symptom 1093 01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,200 Speaker 1: of a bigger problem than I was talking about before. 1094 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 1: Because stealing from the government that ought to be frowned upon, 1095 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 1: that ought to be illegal. In fact, it is illegal, 1096 01:01:05,560 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 1: but nothing gets done about it. I'm reading stories today. 1097 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you're old enough where you've been around long 1098 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:15,920 Speaker 1: enough that you remember Watergate and how that was that 1099 01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 1: came back on Nixon because they were spaying on the 1100 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 1: Democrat National Committee and they broke into the Watergate hotel 1101 01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:25,959 Speaker 1: and stole some whatever, you know, whatever documents or whatever 1102 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 1: secrets they stole from the DNC. And then I'm reading 1103 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:33,240 Speaker 1: where the Biden administration had the phones of Susie Wiles 1104 01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 1: and Cash Bettel tapped and they were listening in on 1105 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:39,920 Speaker 1: their conversations while they were private citizens and while they 1106 01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 1: were working for the Trump campaign. But yet there's no 1107 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 1: outcry about this. No one's ever going to be held 1108 01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 1: accountable for that. I mean, we had a president resign 1109 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 1: because of Watergate, and it wasn't the actual burglar of 1110 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 1: course it was the cover up, as everyone knows. But 1111 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden doesn't have to engage in the cover up. 1112 01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 1: Let it be out there. No one cares, there's no accountability, 1113 01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 1: no one, no one gets held responsible. So, you know, 1114 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:10,160 Speaker 1: the the hearings are great until and this is where 1115 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: they're really starting to lose me on Jim Jordan comes 1116 01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 1: out every other week. We're gonna have a hearing on this. 1117 01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 1: Get to the bottom of it. That's great, get to 1118 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 1: the bottom of it, but let's see someone who committed 1119 01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,320 Speaker 1: these crimes. And that's and that's my whole interest in 1120 01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 1: the Epstein things. 1121 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:25,120 Speaker 6: I want. 1122 01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:28,360 Speaker 1: I want the people who that we're engaging in sex 1123 01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 1: and abusing these young girls to be held accountable for 1124 01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 1: those crimes. And it doesn't seem like we're any closer 1125 01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:36,720 Speaker 1: to that now than we were two or four or 1126 01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:37,400 Speaker 1: five years ago. 1127 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we best faced scenario, we've got three years 1128 01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:48,240 Speaker 3: left of Trump with a you know, razor then GOP majority. 1129 01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:51,960 Speaker 3: Worst case, we've got one year.
