1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's go right back to Ben. In Texas, 2 00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: Ben grew up genuinely poor. They had very little. He 3 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: they had a clunker for a car. And there's no shame, 4 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: there's no dishonor in that. That's you know, that's life. 5 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: By the grace of God, there go I. And so 6 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: his family had to live on welfare. Yet Ben was 7 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 1: making I think a brilliant point, which is, as we 8 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: were growing up, because of welfare reform that was passed 9 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: under both you know, Bill Clinton and a Republican Congress, 10 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: you had people coming in to inspect to make sure 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,480 Speaker 1: it's poor people or the needy, those that are genuinely 12 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 1: disadvantaged that are receiving these welfare benefits and welfare checks. 13 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: Under Obama, these you know, inspections stopped, and now you've 14 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 1: got people living in you know, you know, nice apartments, 15 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: driving fancy cars, apparently going to Disney on vacation, and 16 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: they're getting welfare benefit after welfare benefit after welfare benefit. Ben, Please, 17 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: can you pick up where you left off? 18 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I wanted to say that when I 19 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 2: was a child, I would go they would give us 20 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 2: food coupons or food stamps. When I would have to 21 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 2: pay at a cash register with food stamps when I 22 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: was a child, because my mom would send me to 23 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 2: the corner store to buy some balgone or a loaf 24 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 2: of bread with the food stamps. I would see people 25 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 2: pay with money and I would have to pay with 26 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 2: food stamps. I felt ashamed. I don't know where the 27 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 2: shame came from, but I felt ashamed as a child. 28 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 2: I started working when I was nine years old for 29 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: a dollar a day, from seven in the morning to 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 2: almost a seven o'clock at night in a ranch. So 31 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: you know, I see that. They say, yes, it's you know, 32 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 2: food stamps and welfare is good for those who need it. 33 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: But these frosterures know. But I'll say one thing, even 34 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 2: if you do need it as a child, they say, uh, 35 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 2: welfare is a hand me. It's a it's a hand 36 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: me down or your. 37 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: Hannd out, a handout, a handout. 38 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: I don't think it's a hand me, like a hand 39 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: me up, like they'll there it's trying to help you. 40 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: I think now it's become a hand me.

I 44 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: knew that was wrong as a child, and I was 45 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 2: not going to fall into that trap. Right now, I 46 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 2: heard somewhere where it takes a like three four generations 47 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: to get out of poverty.

They've been the media, 212 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: the Democrats, and frankly even the Republicans. They're trying to 213 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: blackball Diana Dezaglio, the state auditor. They don't advertise, they 214 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 1: don't promote, they don't cover her, they don't going to 215 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: give her any attention. They're basically trying to ghost her 216 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: as if she doesn't exist. Because her logic and by 217 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: the way, she's very moderate on the issue of the 218 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: state audit. You want my aunt, and I like her 219 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: a lot. Please don't misunderstand this. I think she's way 220 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: too moderate personally, Okay, but that doesn't matter. She's right, 221 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: you know. This is her argument. Her argument is, seventy 222 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: three percent of the people of Massachusetts, across the entire 223 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: political Spectrumcrats, Independents, and Republicans, voted for a state audit 224 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: on the ballot. Open up the books, have transparency, Let's 225 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: see what our government is spending its money on. Honor 226 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: the wishes of the voters and the people. That's it. 227 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: That's the lyric. That's her argument. She's not saying there 228 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: is fraud. She's not saying she's going to prosecute fraud. 229 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: She's not saying she's going to make referrals to prosecute fraud. 230 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: All she says is, please just open up the books, 231 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: like you know, pretty please, with a cherry on top. 232 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: We have an electoral mandate from the people to have 233 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: a state audit. They're refusing to comply, they're obstructing, they're 234 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: stonewalling her, and she just keeps pleading and pleading and pleading, 235 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: and all she's saying is, what are you hiding? It's illegal, 236 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: which is true. It's unconstitutional, which is true. It seemral 237 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: and unethical, which is true. It's a betrayal of the voters. 238 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: It's a betrayal of democracy, which is true. It's all true. 239 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it's self evident. You know it's self evident. 240 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: And yet Channel four, Channel five, Channel seven, Channel ten, 241 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: Channel twenty five. I don't care. The print media, the globe, 242 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: you run down the list, they won't give her. They 243 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: won't give her thirty seconds. The Republicans don't highlight her. 244 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: They could be doing events in promoting her, they won't. 245 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: The Democrats want to bury her. And so here's this 246 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: woman who has the authority to expose billions of dollars, 247 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: if not tens of billions in massive on almost unheard 248 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: of waste, fraud and abuse, theft, corruption at the highest level, 249 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: and they have frozen her out. I feel very sorry 250 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: for her. She deserves a lot better than this. And 251 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: she's a Democrat. Just to let people know she's a Democrat, 252 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: she's a registered Democrat, and she's just saying, just let me, 253 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: like an accountant, let me just do an audit, so 254 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: that tells you everything you need to know. So anyway, well, 255 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: look I'm going to try to get her on see 256 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: if she's willing to come on the Kooner Report.

And it's true 300 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: what Julie said and with some callers have said they 301 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:49,360 Speaker 1: can't even get cash back. I'm looking at this, I go, whoa, whoa, whoa, 302 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: WOA what is this an ATM bank card? This is 303 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 1: supposed to be to buy food? So what do you 304 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: mean you can get cash back. If you can get 305 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: cash back, you can spend cash on anything, drugs, booze, cigarettes, lottery, 306 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 1: tickets or whatever, jewelry, whatever, I don't care.

And that's what we need. We can't 346 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 6: have all this what's going on. They're trying to bankrupt 347 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 6: the marror I make us a third world country. We 348 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 6: all know that. And man, do they have their hoofs 349 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 6: in doing what they're doing. We need heroes, not mattress heroes. 350 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 6: That's what I get to say, Jeff Well. 351 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: I got to say on Brian short Sleeve, I think 352 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 1: he was the first. I may be wrong on this. 353 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 1: I don't think I am at least. Look, I can 354 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: only go by what I receive. Okay, Well, this is 355 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 1: what I get in my inbox. It's up to their 356 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: communications people to target the media to get their message 357 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: out to the media, so I can only go by 358 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: what I get. Short Sleeve was the first one to 359 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: go after Healey on this fraud scandal on Snap and 360 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: to point out that Rhode Island had already warned her 361 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: in June of twenty twenty four. You've got stolen identities. 362 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: They're mostly coming from Massachusetts. The money is going to 363 00:23:55,200 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: mostly Massachusetts fraudsters. And they're using two apartments in Providence, 364 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: and they're claiming one hundred and seventeen stolen identities and 365 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: all of them getting EBT Snap benefits. One hundred and 366 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 1: seventeen in two apartments. We're talking massive fraud. And she 367 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: was tipped off, clearly tipped off by Rhode Island. And 368 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: she did nothing. She didn't say anything to the FEDS, 369 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: she didn't launch her own investigation, she did nothing. In fact, 370 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 1: she tried to sweep it under the rug. Now she's 371 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: trying to deny that now, but she can deny till 372 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: the cows come home. The facts are the facts are 373 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: the facts. So short Sleeve was the first one out 374 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: of the gate to go after Heally. But look, I'm 375 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: not trying to pooh pooh short Sleeve. As I said, 376 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: whoever wins the primary, I will support because Healey is 377 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: that much of a disaster. I look at all three 378 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: of them, Mike Minog, Mike Kenneally and short Sleeve. They've 379 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 1: got to be much stronger. I mean, I'm sorry, they 380 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 1: got to image. Just look at the Minnesota Republican Party. 381 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: How they're hammering Waltz, how they're hammering lan Omar, how 382 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: they're now hammering Amy Klobuchar. It's like night and day, 383 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, for the for a mass Republican to make 384 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: any kind of a criticism. Oh oh, it's like a 385 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: heroic act. You gotta smash them, you gotta break them, 386 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: you gotta shame them. No, look, I'm angelo. Look here 387 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: it is. Let me say it because it needs to 388 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: be said. Mori Healy is a crook and the Democrat 389 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:46,120 Speaker 1: Party is a corrupt criminal organization. And the reason why 390 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 1: they don't want a state audit is because they are 391 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: covering up billions and billions and billions of dollars of 392 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: which this snap fraud scheme is just the tip of 393 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: the iceberg of stealing taxpayer money and running a pay 394 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 1: to pay operation here in Massachusetts in which they're sending 395 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: money or allowing money to be given to illegals in 396 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: exchange for votes. That's what's going on, and people need 397 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: to be sent away in handcuffs. This is the rape, 398 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: the plunder, the abuse of taxpayers and our money. Now, 399 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that's what it is. 400 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 2: Now. 401 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: They're saying that in Minnesota the Republicans are because it's true, 402 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,919 Speaker 1: and they're on the verge of a red wave. I mean, 403 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: I know we're still, what is it, eight nine months 404 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,360 Speaker 1: away from the election, but you know they're breaking them 405 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 1: like an egg here. A press release is a big 406 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: thing for them. And you know, we want accountability, we 407 00:26:52,640 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 1: want transparency. This is a payn among more. Heally, because 408 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: I know the people who run their campaigns. I know 409 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 1: the losers who run their campaigns and everything is poll tested. 410 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 1: They pull test every word. They're losers. They lose. I 411 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,199 Speaker 1: don't know why they even get hired. They well, I 412 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: know why they're paid to lose. They lose election after 413 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: election after election, and so they put their candidate in 414 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: a straight jacket and they tie their hands. So my 415 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: advice to Brian Schwortzleeve. If he's listening, just let her rip. Man, 416 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: Mike Minogue, let her rip, Kenealy, let her rip. Don't 417 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: hold back. You're the underdog anyway. You're not expected to 418 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:51,959 Speaker 1: win anyway. You're up against a formidable Democrat machine that 419 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: uses voter fraud to steal and rig elections. So what 420 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: are you parsing your words for? Why are you way 421 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: every word and every phrase and just speak the truth 422 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: and people will listen. But if you come across as 423 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 1: just another politician, another slick, packaged politician, then the Democrats 424 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: are going to win. In other words, when you're running 425 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: against the gangster, call her a gainster. It's like going 426 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: up against al Capone. He's a gangster. Call him out Angelo. 427 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? Final word to you. 428 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 6: No, you're absolutely right. Take the gloves off. They've been 429 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:45,719 Speaker 6: causing havoc in this country. They just too much city burning, 430 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 6: all this ridiculous to get the alives across. Don't forget 431 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 6: they're doing what they have to do. You hit the 432 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 6: nail on the head many times by saying, don't burn 433 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 6: the country down just to not lose their power. And 434 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 6: you know we're not going to the streets we're doing 435 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 6: it by the pen with civilized people. We want to 436 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 6: help everybody, and that's hot to there. But come in legally, 437 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 6: do the right thing, and that's it, Jeff. I mean, 438 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 6: they gotta just expose them for what they are and 439 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 6: let's let's roll and keep America going great. I couldn't 440 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 6: believe what you said earlier. How if they just budgeted 441 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 6: the snap alone, it would it would straighten out all 442 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 6: our bills here. It's unreal. Let's get on it, keep 443 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 6: on them, and that's the end of them. 444 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: Amen. I agree. Look, just a welfare fraud. I mean, 445 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: this is coming from the Treasury Department. This is Catt Bessant, 446 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: and Elon is saying he's right, the whole country, not 447 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 1: just mass obviously, the whole country. Two trillion dollars. We 448 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: thought it was seven hundred billion, and that was an 449 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: incredible number, Okay, a massive, unheard of number. They're saying, no, no, no, no, 450 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: we're looking at maybe one point five two trillion. That's 451 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: the whole budget. The budget deficit. That's the budget deficit 452 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: right there. It's unbelievable. Look, it breaks my heart to 453 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: say this. You have no idea what she breaks my 454 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: heart to say this, okay, because my parents are from 455 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: Eastern Europe and I know that area very well, and 456 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: they're known for corruption. It's not just communism, to be fair, 457 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 1: it was before communism. It's not after communism. They just whatever. 458 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: They just corruption and public corruption and stealing people's money. 459 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: It's just more common in that part of the world 460 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: than frankly say, even in Western Europe. Okay, I believe now, 461 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: if you're just looking at dollar amounts, we're the most 462 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: corrupt country in the world. I'm sorry, it breaks my 463 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: heart to say this. Even the Russians don't steal two trillion. 464 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: I'm telling you they don't. They don't have two trillion 465 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: to steal. Even the communists Chinese, they don't steal two trillion. 466 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: The Ukrainians, which is maybe the most corrupt country in Europe, 467 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: them in the Russians. Okay, it's always a fight between 468 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: them who's number one. I mean, yeah, they're stealing hundreds 469 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: of billions because we're sending there. But they're not stealing 470 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: trillions because you can't. There's nothing you don't have. They 471 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: don't have trillions to steal. This is a mind boggling 472 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: amount of money that is now being siphoned off and 473 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: abused and wasted and outright stolen. And it's I'm not 474 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: saying Republicans are clean, because they're never clean, but this 475 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: is overwhelmingly among the Democrats. And this is what Nude 476 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: Gingrich is saying. He's looking around like what is wrong 477 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: with everybody? This is the issue you can take. It's 478 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: like a baseball back to the head. Politically, you can 479 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: smash and break the Democrats on this issue. And I 480 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: mean Minnesota, the Republicans are running on this, but here 481 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: in Massachusetts nothing and other states nothing main Republicans nothing. 482 00:31:55,760 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: I mean Janet Mills has turned She's a kleptocrat. Janet 483 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: Mills has turned Maine into little Somalia. And Maine, which 484 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: was one of the cleanest, most honest states with one 485 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: of the cleanest, most honest governments, is now another Minnesota. 486 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: It is ripe with corruption, rife with corruption. So to me, 487 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: this is the issue the Republicans should be running on. 488 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: Who likes to have their tax money stolen? I mean, 489 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: how is that a winning strategy for Democrats? And to 490 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: steal it either for themselves or to give it to illegals, 491 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: It's not even benefiting Americans for the most part, So 492 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: no this We've got them, but we've got to be 493 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: willing to go after them. Thank you so much for 494 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: that call. As always Angelo Dina in reading. Thanks for 495 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: holding Dina and welcome. 496 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 5: It's good morning, Joe, Dana. 497 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm I am Mike. How to I mean, you. 498 00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 5: Know, please forgive my nervous voice. 499 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: Go ahead, David. 500 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 5: I'm listening to this this morning, and my blood is boiling. 501 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 5: As a taxpayer, as a legal US citizen, as a 502 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 5: resident of the state for the last thirty one years. 503 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 5: Just shy of two years ago, I received a letter 504 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 5: from the State of Massachusetts instructing me to provide them 505 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 5: proof that I've been looking for work in order to 506 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 5: continue to receive my unemployment benefits. So number one, I've 507 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 5: never in my forty plus year career as an engineer, 508 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 5: have filed for any unemployment or any public assistance program ever. 509 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 5: And so I call up the state and I say, 510 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 5: what's going on here? Is why am I getting this? 511 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 5: And the lady was very kind and very polite, and 512 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 5: she just said, oh, it's if this is not you, 513 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 5: it's probably just fraud. She immediately rolled and said it's 514 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 5: fraud and I pushed her for giving me an answer 515 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 5: as to well, who is this person and how did 516 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 5: they get my personal information to claim unemployment insurance from 517 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 5: the state of Massachusetts. He informed me that this person 518 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 5: lived in Kentucky, but wouldn't give me any name or 519 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 5: other leads to follow up on. And I said, well, 520 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 5: what's my recourse. I want this corrected. I don't want 521 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 5: this on my record, I don't want to continue getting 522 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 5: these notices in the mail, and I want this fraud 523 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 5: stopped first and foremost. And her attitude to me was 524 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 5: just very blacks of days ago, very not unwilling, but 525 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 5: just oh, this happens a lot, and especially in the 526 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 5: state of Kentucky. There's a cozy relationship with Massachusetts unemployment 527 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 5: and Kentucky, so there's apparently across state boundaries a lot 528 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 5: of fraud going on. Once the money transfers from the 529 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 5: state of Massachusetts out of state, how does it get precked? 530 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 5: There's no trace, How does it get traced? How does 531 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:17,399 Speaker 5: all this fraud that's being perpetrated on the American taxpayer, 532 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 5: in particular state of Massachusetts taxpayers, how does that You 533 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 5: can't put a number on it yet it's it's beyond 534 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 5: snap and ebt. It's gross and disgusting and it's just 535 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 5: that's I just wanted to say that, and that's just 536 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 5: my experience. So yes, I have witnessed fraud an abuse 537 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 5: directly at a grocery store multiple times. And you know, 538 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 5: what do you do? You you don't dare say anything 539 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 5: for being fear of being escorted out of the building 540 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 5: and not being able to buy your own groceries. And 541 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 5: they apparently value the privacy and rights of illegals and 542 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:05,280 Speaker 5: people who commit fraud more so than legal American citizens 543 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 5: who pay their taxes due to flee every year and 544 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 5: stay out of trouble and abide by the rule of law. 545 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 5: So you know, how do they get my personal information? 546 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 5: It was my first concern and that's all I have 547 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:20,319 Speaker 5: to say. 548 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 1: Jeff, Well, you nailed it. Look, they care more about 549 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:28,959 Speaker 1: illegals foreigners. Let's be clear. These are foreign nationals who 550 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: illegally came into our country, which means they broke the law. 551 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 1: So they're criminals. Okay, I understand it's civil, it's not 552 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 1: technically criminal, but it's a crime. It's a crime to 553 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: come into our country illegally. And never mind all the 554 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:47,280 Speaker 1: other crimes they commit, document fraud, identity fraud, fake social 555 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 1: security numbers. I could go on and on. Okay, so 556 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: they will put criminal foreign nationals, their priorities, their interests, 557 00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: above hardworking, law abiding American citizens. Now that tells you 558 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,960 Speaker 1: everything you need to know about the Democrat Party, and 559 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 1: in particular about this governor and about the Democrats who 560 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 1: run this state with an iron fist. And it's not 561 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: difficult to break their stranglehold. But you got to have guts, 562 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 1: you've got to have courage, you've got to have honesty, 563 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: you have to have authenticity, and you have to be 564 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 1: willing to stand up to this corrupt machine. And you know, 565 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 1: we need a fighter. That's what you know. You really 566 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: want to know what we need. We need a Donald 567 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 1: Trump
