Great timing on 5 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: that one, considering the ice shooting of Minneapolis the other day. 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 1: Congressman Davids and welcome back to the fifty five Casey 7 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: morn showing a very happy new year to you, sir. 8 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, Happy new year, Brian. Always an honor to join you. 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: So I honored to have you on. And I was 10 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: lamenting that they're we're expecting massive protests today. Of course, 11 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: immediately the placards from all the different various anti American 12 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: organizations joined together and they're going out there calling this 13 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: this ice action shooting, the woman who tried to run 14 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: over the ice agent, whether automobile murder. I was lamenting that, 15 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: you know, this is not the first time this immediate, 16 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: well organized response has come out. We've been watching this 17 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: unfold now for years. Where is the conservative corollary to that? 18 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: The answer apparently to the question, which was which a 19 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: lot of people chimed in on over the break, the 20 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: conservatives are all work, They have jobs, they don't have 21 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: time to run out in the street. And protest. But 22 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: putting aside any levity associated with that, where are we 23 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: on this one? I think the correct answer to the 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: question is, don't interfere with federal law enforcement operations and 25 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: try to run over an officer with your car and 26 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: you won't run the risk of getting shot. Congressman Davidson, 27 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: your take on this whole thing. 28 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 2: Well, look, you know, to your point about where you know, 29 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: the rentom mob kind of program, how do you get 30 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: all this turnout to create the riots and protests. Well, 31 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: one of the easiest ways is you just cancel school. 32 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 2: So that's what Minneapolis has done. They canceled school so 33 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 2: all the teachers can go out and organize, you know, 34 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: their regular job, which is agitating the public and continuing 35 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 2: the Marxist revolution. They just do it outside the classroom 36 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: for a few days here this week, and then if 37 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 2: you've got older students, they can also participate and you know, 38 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 2: get their street cred in the little revolution. So, you know, 39 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 2: this is the kind of stuff that's going on in Minneapolis, 40 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 2: and for them, it's essentially a religious war. I mean, 41 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 2: you know, conservatives have crossed the heresy code line, which is, 42 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 2: you know, don't disrupt the invasion, and so they're doing 43 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: this righteous protection of the Somali pirates. They're plundering Minnesota 44 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 2: and frankly the taxpayer wealth around the country. And they're 45 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 2: doing it because you know, well, you know, you want 46 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: to help these people. Well okay, well a little fraud 47 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 2: is going to happen, but you know, you've got to 48 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: do the right thing. And there are people that bought 49 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 2: into this book line and sinker and and ice is evil. 50 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 2: They're like Nazi stormtroopers. And that's how you've agitated people 51 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: like this crazy lady that was all day driving her car, 52 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 2: getting between ICE agents and blocking people. And you know, 53 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: the normal the normal law enforcement program goes, you know, ask, tell, 54 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 2: make you know you man, please, could you please get 55 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: out of the car? Get out of the car. Then 56 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: you see the ICE agent going and they're going to 57 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: make her get out of the car, so she you know, 58 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: punishes it to go move. Now, the car was on ice, 59 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 2: so it slipped a little bit or it would have 60 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 2: gone to the left and fast right over the agent. 61 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: It started that way anyway, and that's when he draws 62 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 2: the fires. And so to me, when I look at 63 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: that video, I think, okay, is there possibility he could 64 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 2: have done something else. Yeah, but that's not the obligation. 65 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: The obligation is he feared for his life and the 66 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: safety of others, and he took action. And you know, 67 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: lesson learned. Just as you said, hey, listen to the 68 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 2: law enforcement even when they're wrong. You know, eventually, just 69 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: count on winning. But don't do something escalatory that is 70 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 2: going to be seen as a threat or you're gonna 71 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: get hurt. And if you do something that's viewed as 72 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 2: a lethal threat, there's a good chance you're going to die. 73 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 2: And instead of saying that, Governor Waltz and the mayor 74 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 2: of Minneapolis is out escalating the situation, instead of saying, look, 75 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: take note, I don't want anyone to get hurt, So 76 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 2: to take note, we're working with the federal government to 77 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: make sure we're doing this stuff better or whatever. But 78 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: that's exactly it. They're not working with the federal government. 79 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: They've tried to completely lock the federal government out of 80 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: their sanctuary city and their sanctuary state, even in the 81 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 2: wake of massive fraud and scandal. 82 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,919 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and this is a clear, clear parallel to 83 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: the defund the police movie he had the George Floyd Shiitting. 84 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: Then if people took to the street, police are illegitimate. 85 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: They are a racist organization. When you do everything we 86 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: can to stop policing neighborhoods and in crime ensues, we've 87 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: seen the aftermath of that. Hell, we can't even get 88 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: lateral hires in the city of Cincinnati. Thirty open spots 89 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: for a job with a pension and working with one 90 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: of the greater law enforcement agencies here in the country. 91 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: Seven people showed up to take up on the opportunity 92 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: to join the law enforcement. See, we've demonized police so 93 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: much that people don't even want to do the job anymore. 94 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: They're doing the same thing with Ice. Ice is out 95 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: trying to enforce the law. They're trying to pick up 96 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: and round up the worst of the worst of the 97 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants here. They have the lawful right to do it. Here, 98 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 1: you go interfere with police doing their duty, and something 99 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: bad is going to happen. I think this is what 100 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,679 Speaker 1: they were waiting for. All these leftist organizations couldn't wait 101 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: for this to happen. This poor woman is dead because 102 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: she did something that she was encouraged to do by 103 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: elected officials and all these other organizations. They've got their martyr. 104 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: Now it's time to go to the streets. 105 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look it's there's there's not a coincidence that 106 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 2: the Summer of Love started in Minneapolis, right. I mean, 107 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: this is ground zero for the neo Marxist ajut agitation 108 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: that that they're doing in the country. So they're not 109 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: going to miss the moment. They've got essentially field trips 110 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 2: to the streets for the students there because that's what 111 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 2: they've done, and they did the March Long March through 112 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 2: the institutions. One of the first things they seized was education, 113 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 2: and now they're doing, you know this to make sure 114 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 2: that the students don't draw the wrong conclusion. You know 115 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: that that you know, hey, don't break our laws and 116 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: invade our country by coming here illegally, and then don't 117 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 2: stop the people that are just enforcing the laws of 118 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 2: the country. We wouldn't want them to learn those things. 119 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 2: We want them to learn that you got to join 120 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: the cause and fight demand and you know, continue this 121 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: you know, anti anti law and order regime that they're doing. 122 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: So I hope the country takes a note because the 123 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: reality is this is the vanguard for what democrats want 124 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 2: to do all around the country. And it's the same 125 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 2: kind of thing like it spread in twenty twenty. They 126 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: wanted to spread. Look at the progress that was made 127 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 2: in Cincinnati, and it's still not recovered to where it 128 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 2: was in twenty twenty. So they want to do this 129 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 2: all over the country, cities around the country. And it 130 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: is the agenda for the people leading the Democrat Party. 131 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: I'm not saying every Democrat believes these things, but that's 132 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 2: where the direction of the leadership for the Democrat Party is. 133 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: And it is as Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, so, well, 134 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 2: well normal versus crazy, and you see crazy every day, 135 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: especially in Minneapolis. 136 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: Well, and then the other underlying point of all this, 137 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: or the argument that's made by those defending this fraud, 138 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: waste and abuse going on in Minneapolis, is that if 139 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: you bring it to anybody's attention, or you go after 140 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: and you enforce the law and you prosecute people for 141 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: violating the law, somehow, that's an active racism, which is 142 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: the most comical, stupid argument I think I've ever heard. 143 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: In making that argument, you're saying you're just going after 144 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: the black and brown community of the Somalis and you're 145 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: targeting them because you're racist. Now for you to protect, 146 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: to try to defend and protect the fraud, the criminal 147 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: activity by claiming it's racist to go after it is 148 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: in and of itself an active racism, which means you're 149 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: going to treat that community differently from other law breakers. 150 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: We're giving them a past because they're members of the 151 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: black and brown Somali community. That's nonsensical and in and 152 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: of itself racist. 153 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 2: Your take, Yeah, I mean that's right. But look how 154 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: long that worked, right, I mean, this is the same 155 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 2: playbook they effectively rolled out on pat You can and right, 156 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 2: oh he's a racist, And there was a well, I 157 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 2: don't know if you're a racist. I mean I'm not 158 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 2: a racist guy. So you've you've had you know, conservative 159 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: couckery here where you've not fought back or raised anything forever. Right, 160 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 2: It's like, look, it's not race, it's we don't get 161 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 2: mad at them because they're black or brown or from 162 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: this community. That it's because they're stealing after the people 163 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 2: that are stealing, or when you look at the crime, 164 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 2: the law and order, you know, you look at in Washington, 165 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: d C. Two percent of the population was accounting for 166 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 2: ninety percent of the crime. So when you target that 167 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 2: two percent, it's not racist. It's the two percent that's 168 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 2: causing the crime. 169 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: Right, right, that's the bottom line, Just not Caucussan Davids 170 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 1: And we got so much more to talk about. Got 171 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: to take a break though, let me just go straightforward 172 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: in the conversation. But it is time for a quick 173 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: couple of words. Here seven fifteen fifty five Karcity Talk Stations, 174 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about whether there's going to be 175 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: another governation sevent nineteen Fiftybouck Karcite Talxictionan, Brian Thomas A 176 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: Congressman Warren Davidson moving over. That's right. We did have 177 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: a government shutdown over these subsidies that were brought and 178 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: put in place for Obamacare because of COVID nineteen. COVID 179 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: nineteen's left us, thankfully, that's a good thing. The Democrats 180 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: put in place an end date for those supplements. That 181 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: date's come and gone. They have disappeared, and that resulted 182 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: in the government shutdown last fall. They were fighting like 183 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,359 Speaker 1: hell to keep them in place, even though the justification 184 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: for them no longer existed. Are we going to have 185 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: another government shutdown? Since that situation has not been resolved yet, 186 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: or are we going to come up with some probably 187 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: ridiculous compromise. Congressman Davidson. 188 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Democrats really want another shutdown. They feel like it worked, 189 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 2: and on balance, when you look at the Democrat base, 190 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 2: Democrats have declined with their base. Uh. And part of 191 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 2: the reason they declined is they agreed to reopen the government. Right, 192 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 2: So they were they were getting phrase from their base 193 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 2: when they had the government shut down. They were you know, 194 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 2: fighting you know, the evil Empire. Uh. And they were, 195 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 2: you know, great righteous warriors in this holy war they're 196 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 2: trying to wage. Uh. And then when they reopened the government, 197 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 2: they took blowback, you know, after six weeks of shutdown. 198 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: So now they're like, well, let's let's get back and 199 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 2: engage the base again and shut down the government again. So, 200 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 2: you know, that's what that's what Schumer's take, And from 201 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 2: talk to some colleagues, they're like, yeah, you know, I 202 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 2: don't really see where everybody's coming from, but that's kind 203 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 2: of where some of our base is. And uh, you know, 204 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 2: so they're probably going to try to do that. Uh. 205 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: The challenge has been that Republicans continue to try to 206 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 2: have a way to accommodate that. And just last night, 207 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: you know, we had nine Republicans joined Democrats. They signed 208 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: a discharge petition that takes the power away from the 209 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 2: majority party. The Speaker didn't want to put this on 210 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:08,239 Speaker 2: the floor, but some of our colleaguesjoined with all Democrats 211 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 2: to say, let's do three year continuation of the status quo. 212 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 2: And what is the status quo. It's sending more cash 213 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 2: to the insurance companies, and it's to give subsidies to 214 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 2: people that are at the very high end of the market. 215 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 2: A member of Congress who has no other income or 216 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 2: assets than the base pay from Congress, which is reasonably generous, 217 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 2: would qualify for subsidies for a family of flour. I mean, 218 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 2: that's crazy. You're looking at five thousand dollars going to 219 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 2: health insurance companies. And the fraud on this program has 220 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 2: been insane because all you have to do is sign 221 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: somebody up for it, and the money is getting sent 222 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 2: in their behalf to the insurance companies. So there are 223 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 2: people that are that are quote getting this benefit that 224 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 2: don't even know that the benefit exists, but the checks 225 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 2: are getting cut. There are no controls on a lot 226 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 2: of these programs, and that's what Doge was identifying, and 227 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: instead of going after the fact that hey, even if 228 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 2: it was working, which it isn't, it's rife with corruption, 229 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: and they're like, yeah, but let's keep doing it while 230 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 2: we fix it. And I mean, that's one of the 231 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 2: biggest things I miss about manufacturing. Even if you don't 232 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: know everything that's wrong, once you know you're making bad parts, 233 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: you at least stop making bad parts. 234 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: It's a good parallel well, and the subs you just 235 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: mask the failure that is Obamacare. That's the real devil 236 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: in the details here. You know, the premiums keep going 237 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 1: up with Obamacare because of the claims exposure. If you 238 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: don't have premium dollars coming in, there is no nothing 239 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: to cover the losses that are being shelled out. 240 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 2: So like, why is my. 241 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: Premium going up? Well, is because it's just so damn 242 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: expensive to ensure everybody out there, You've got to pay 243 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: more to get to get the benefits. By giving a subsidy, 244 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: you're masking the reality of the failure of the program, 245 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: and so you just keep going down with the same program, 246 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: not fixing. What you just pointed out is the overall problem, 247 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: which is the program itself. 248 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, this is the mastery, right, This, this 249 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: subsidy that they're fighting about, isn't even everything with Obamacare. 250 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: So if you're like a normal Obamacare person, you say, 251 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 2: you make forty fifty thousand dollars a year, you know, 252 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: you've got a you know, a family plan, and you're 253 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 2: you know, getting by. This is a program where you know, 254 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 2: let's say you work at a restaurant, you don't have 255 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 2: health insurance, or you're a real real estate agent or something, 256 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 2: you don't have health insurance. You're sort of independent. That's 257 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 2: what Obamacare was designed to do. And they're not affected 258 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 2: by this program. This is the other portion of Obamacare, right. 259 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 2: So it's like the really successful real estate agent that's 260 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 2: making one hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year, but 261 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 2: they're getting even more subsidies for it. Yeah, and a 262 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 2: thing that you put subsidies on, every single thing that 263 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 2: we're subsidizing the rate of inflation is higher than if 264 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: you didn't subsidize it. So for the broader market, the 265 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 2: broader market, everybody in regular insurance, insurance is getting even 266 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 2: more expensive. Healthcare is getting more expensive for everyone, including 267 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 2: the people that are paying cash. You know, it's the 268 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 2: same for education, right, all of tuition is getting more 269 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: expensive because you're dumping more and more federal subsidies into it. 270 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 2: So it's inflating the market. So more government equals worse 271 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 2: for everybody else in virtually every program. 272 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: Well, in the interest of times, since we're almost out 273 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: of it, briefly, the Biological Intellectual Property Protection Act, what's 274 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: just real? Briefly explaining that to my listeners, Congress Mo 275 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: Warren Davidson. 276 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 2: Well, it's a band on China, right, So look, if 277 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 2: you look at DNA, RNA, m RNA, all this kind 278 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 2: of stuff that's going on, China is basically buying up 279 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 2: data on Americans, indexing stuff. So if you want to 280 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 2: do therapeutic drugs, you know, you might want to look 281 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 2: at this kind of data and you would design it 282 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 2: in labs. If you wanted to engineer viruses, on the 283 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: other hand, and build bioweapons, you know, things that are 284 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 2: really bad bioweapons, you could also use this kind of data. 285 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 2: And so we're saying, you know, maybe just don't do 286 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: this in China, like particularly in Wuhan, for example, don't 287 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 2: don't send this biologic data out of the United States, 288 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: and so now you know it's basically treating it like 289 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 2: subject to our review on export controls for sensitive technology, 290 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: especially Americans. Biologic data is now going to be viewed 291 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 2: as sensitive information that doesn't get exported without a proper review. 292 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: Please tell me this enjoys bipartisan support. 293 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 2: So far, it is completely bipartisan in the House and Senate, 294 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 2: and we're hopeful that it'll get clear consensus. And it's 295 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 2: the kind of thing that a lot of time, it 296 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 2: won't be like a steamed the Loan bill where you 297 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: can get the Senate to vote on it. They'll hopefully 298 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: get passed through committee and then incorporated into a bigger package. 299 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: Well, as long as there's bipartisan support, because that sounds 300 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: like a very logical, reasonable, and necessary thing to put 301 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: in place. Congressman Warren Davidson, thank you very much for 302 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: joining the program. I look forward to our conversations and 303 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: appreciate you coming on and being willing to talk about 304 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: these sensitive and important issues. We'll do it throughout the year, 305 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: I hope, and happy New Year to you and your family. 306 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 2: Sir,
