WEBVTT - 1-21-26 Willie with Warren Davidson

0:00:07.560 --> 0:00:10.680
<v Speaker 1>By Billy Cunningham the Grand America. Welcome with glorious, glorious

0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday afternoon in the Tri State. I have a lot

0:00:13.000 --> 0:00:16.439
<v Speaker 1>of basketball tonight. I think Xavier owes the Blue Jays

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:17.600
<v Speaker 1>of creating a good beat down.

0:00:17.640 --> 0:00:18.000
<v Speaker 2>They come.

0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:19.800
<v Speaker 1>They came here about a month ago and create and

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:22.720
<v Speaker 1>beat Xavier by forty one points in the Centas Center.

0:00:22.920 --> 0:00:25.680
<v Speaker 1>As Warren Davidson knows, that isn't good. Now you see,

0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:27.800
<v Speaker 1>having beaten the number two team in the country, Iowa

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:30.920
<v Speaker 1>State is playing tonight late about eight thirty nine o'clock

0:00:30.920 --> 0:00:33.159
<v Speaker 1>out in Arizona, playing the number one ring team in

0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:36.040
<v Speaker 1>the country. I'm not sure anytime as you see ever

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:38.320
<v Speaker 1>beaten one and two in the country. And within about

0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:40.320
<v Speaker 1>a month period. We'll see what happens down the road.

0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.680
<v Speaker 1>But this morning in Davos, Switzerland, Donald Trump did a

0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 1>fabulous job of putting the cheese on the cracker with

0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:50.640
<v Speaker 1>these with these situations in Europe, at one point he said,

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:52.959
<v Speaker 1>you can sip your wine and eat your cheese. As

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Muslim rape squads pillaged the countryside and all of a sudden,

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 1>the European leaders didn't know what to do. Plus believe

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:01.960
<v Speaker 1>it or not, in about a week or eight days

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 1>or so, we're going to have a shutdown of the

0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:06.319
<v Speaker 1>government again. According to some of the Democrats, they want

0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:08.959
<v Speaker 1>to shut down the government this time over ice. But

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:12.679
<v Speaker 1>until then, Warren Davidson, the Congressman, welcome again to the

0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Bill Cunningham Show. And Congressman, how are you.

0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:17.080
<v Speaker 3>It's always an honored to join you.

0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:19.399
<v Speaker 2>Well, I understand, I understand.

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>This afternoon you've had meetings pow wows with other Democrats.

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:28.440
<v Speaker 1>There's a representations of Elon Omar and Nancy Pelosi and

0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Congressman Goldman of New York City. They may shut down

0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:35.640
<v Speaker 1>the government because of ice. But then there's other reporting

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 1>on newsmax dot com that there's about twenty more or

0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:42.759
<v Speaker 1>less reasonable Democrats in the Congress that say nah, bab nah.

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.880
<v Speaker 1>In fact, there is a Democrat in the Senate, Patty Murray,

0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:48.279
<v Speaker 1>as you know, in the state of Washington, who's telling

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 1>you and others that we have a deal as far

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 1>as cutting back some of the spending of ice. Where

0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>do things stand this Wednesday afternoon, about twelve ten in

0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>the afternoon, Where do things stand?

0:01:58.480 --> 0:01:58.640
<v Speaker 3>Well?

0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.240
<v Speaker 4>The Senate's out this week, uh, and so the House

0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 4>is voting on what we think will be the final package. Uh,

0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:08.799
<v Speaker 4>and we will have gotten through all the appropriations. Now

0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:11.360
<v Speaker 4>this isn't what we call regular order because they're not

0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:15.399
<v Speaker 4>like standalone bills. They're not really subject to amendment. They're

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:19.320
<v Speaker 4>all pre negotiated deals, and so it turns into kind

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.480
<v Speaker 4>of take it or leave it, And you know, some

0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:24.480
<v Speaker 4>of them will pass with overwhelming bipartisan audority's. But the

0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:28.840
<v Speaker 4>one that definite Democrats have definitely said they want to

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 4>stop is homeland security.

0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:31.680
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:33.960
<v Speaker 4>But I will say I don't think it's every Democrat

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:36.480
<v Speaker 4>that you know, they there were some, you know, like

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:39.720
<v Speaker 4>Corey Bush remembers she thankfully is no longer in Congress,

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.240
<v Speaker 4>but she was the trazy lady in Saint Louis who

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:44.640
<v Speaker 4>was like, no, we meant defund the police when we

0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:45.880
<v Speaker 4>said defund the police.

0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:49.120
<v Speaker 4>And they found out from the public that they better

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:51.799
<v Speaker 4>rebrand that so that they didn't really mean defund the

0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:53.840
<v Speaker 4>police when they were voting to defund the police, so

0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:56.360
<v Speaker 4>they tried to pretend that they were meaning something else.

0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:59.720
<v Speaker 4>She's like, no, no, we meant defund the police. And

0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.480
<v Speaker 4>now defund ice might be the next dumbest thing that

0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:05.360
<v Speaker 4>they've come up with and you know, you saw this

0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:09.320
<v Speaker 4>young man who's working for ICE stops and talks to

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.880
<v Speaker 4>a protesters like, look, we're en route to arrest a

0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 4>child sex predator, and you guys are stopping us from

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.800
<v Speaker 4>doing our jobs. Yeah, we're going to grab this guy,

0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:22.639
<v Speaker 4>We're going to try him and then deport them where

0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:25.280
<v Speaker 4>he's going to get some justice. And you're stopping our

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 4>enforcement action. So these are the crazy positions they're taking.

0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:31.560
<v Speaker 4>And so I think there's some Democrats. We're going to

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:34.079
<v Speaker 4>call it on a separate vote, in part because we

0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:35.720
<v Speaker 4>don't want them to hide behind it and say, well,

0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:37.839
<v Speaker 4>I wanted to defund this, that or the other thing.

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:41.880
<v Speaker 4>We want to clean vote on homeland security appropriations, and

0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 4>then we'll blend it all together and send the package

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:44.280
<v Speaker 4>of the Senate.

0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:44.880
<v Speaker 3>See what they do.

0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, I made a reference to this on

0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 1>my ex account, and that is deporting illegals, criminals and

0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:56.440
<v Speaker 1>otherwise have not been controversial at all until recently. I

0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>played for the American people the comments of Bill Clinton

0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:00.840
<v Speaker 1>to the State the Union address.

0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:02.760
<v Speaker 2>Al Gore was on board with this.

0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Then I played the comments of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer,

0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:10.120
<v Speaker 1>and Joe Biden and brock Hussein Obama. They sound like

0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump or you or me. This was ten years ago.

0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:16.880
<v Speaker 1>In fact, in twenty fifteen, there's a high Civilian award

0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:20.400
<v Speaker 1>given to it the person and the federal bureaucracy that

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:24.400
<v Speaker 1>the President considers to be performed in exemplary fashion his duties.

0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:26.719
<v Speaker 1>And that person in twenty fifteen, I'm looking at the

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>photo was a guy named Tom Homan.

0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 3>So Tom Homan amazing.

0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:34.599
<v Speaker 1>Tom Holman is wine dined in pocket lined Oliver Washington

0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 1>by the Democrats for deporting illegals.

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:38.599
<v Speaker 2>What the hell happened?

0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, somewhere along the way they changed the plan. And

0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:45.560
<v Speaker 4>I don't think they truly changed the plan. They would

0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 4>they would hide behind those we are deporting people, you know.

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.560
<v Speaker 4>Meanwhile they were saying, well, yeah, but on the other side,

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 4>we're bringing in a lot of illegals, so this is

0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 4>just optics so we can move the public alawn. And

0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:01.279
<v Speaker 4>that's really what was underway back then. They would celebrate

0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 4>the things they're doing to secure the border and then

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:05.520
<v Speaker 4>pretend there's nothing we could.

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.719
<v Speaker 2>Do, right, we can't do it, we can't do it.

0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 4>But then Donald Trump came in and they got serious

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:15.400
<v Speaker 4>of that immigration when Donald Trump came in, because he's like, no.

0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:17.640
<v Speaker 3>We're not doing that, and he did. He meant it

0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:18.960
<v Speaker 3>in the first administration.

0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 4>He wasn't going to do the fake deport these people,

0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:25.359
<v Speaker 4>but flowed the other people in the country. He was

0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.080
<v Speaker 4>going to get serious about securing the border. And that's

0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:32.800
<v Speaker 4>really what broke them. It was Trump arrangement syndrome and

0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:35.839
<v Speaker 4>just the realization that he really was going to change

0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:36.799
<v Speaker 4>the rules of the game.

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to show Tony Bender, my producer, I can't

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 1>do it in the radio. All the awards given to

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:47.440
<v Speaker 1>Barack Husain Obama's ice chief for the removal. These are

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the words of President Barack Husain Obama during his term.

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:54.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm proud to announce that Tom Homan has deported about

0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:57.159
<v Speaker 1>four hundred and nine thousand illegal criminals from our country,

0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:59.800
<v Speaker 1>including an additional two point five million. You shouldn't be

0:05:59.839 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 1>here in the first place, just to come into America

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.920
<v Speaker 1>as a crime itself, said President Obama, as you put

0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:07.960
<v Speaker 1>this gold medal around the neck of Tom Homan.

0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:10.640
<v Speaker 2>Now that's something the media will not deal with.

0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:13.760
<v Speaker 1>But right now Trump is not even close to the

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:18.360
<v Speaker 1>deportations of Obama, not even close because he's at every

0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:20.719
<v Speaker 1>turn he's being stopped, but he will not be stopped.

0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Do you think there's going to be a government shut

0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:25.279
<v Speaker 1>down in a week? Congressman? What do you say, get

0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:28.320
<v Speaker 1>out your crystal ball? What does Thomas Massey say about this?

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:31.280
<v Speaker 1>What does Ran Paul say about this? There'll be Republicans

0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:32.040
<v Speaker 1>voting against it.

0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:34.279
<v Speaker 2>What do you say?

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 3>I think there will not be a shutdown.

0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.600
<v Speaker 4>I think look, there's things in these mills, and the

0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:41.440
<v Speaker 4>real is, Look, we're not going to vote on an

0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:44.840
<v Speaker 4>ideal funding package, right, and look, the coalition that we've

0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:48.880
<v Speaker 4>got is a Republican coalition. There's not like one unified

0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 4>idiotology that gives us this narrow, narrow majority in the

0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 4>House and a functionally narrow majority in the Senate. That's

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.640
<v Speaker 4>the easier mass as people know. Look, Susan Collins and

0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:02.520
<v Speaker 4>Lisa Murkowski are sort of different kind of Republicans and

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:04.320
<v Speaker 4>a lot of the folks that were out there, so

0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:07.480
<v Speaker 4>we've got that in spades in the House, a lot

0:07:07.480 --> 0:07:08.320
<v Speaker 4>of personalities.

0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:10.080
<v Speaker 3>But I think the real question.

0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 4>Is, is the package that we're going to vote on

0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 4>this week in the House and next week in the Senate,

0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:17.160
<v Speaker 4>is that better than a status quo continuing resolution.

0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:18.360
<v Speaker 3>And right now it.

0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:20.560
<v Speaker 4>Looks like the winds We're still negotiating here in the

0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:23.000
<v Speaker 4>House right up to the clock until we vote probably

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:26.120
<v Speaker 4>Thursday or Friday on the package, But it looks like

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:28.120
<v Speaker 4>we're going to land something that is going to be

0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 4>better than a status quo CR. Maybe not a lot better,

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:35.480
<v Speaker 4>but it's something. And I think the crazy thing there

0:07:35.520 --> 0:07:38.040
<v Speaker 4>are going to be Democrats that also go, all right,

0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:41.360
<v Speaker 4>we agree, this is probably better than a status quo CR.

0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 4>And when you start seeing Democrats agree, usually that means

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:49.240
<v Speaker 4>they're either spending more money or Republicans are making concessions.

0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 4>So those are the kind of things we're going through

0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 4>right now to say what kind of deals were cut

0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:53.880
<v Speaker 4>in here?

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 3>What are we missing? Because at the.

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:57.720
<v Speaker 4>End of the day, this is over a thousand pages

0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:01.000
<v Speaker 4>of new policy we're going to vote on this week.

0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:03.480
<v Speaker 2>Do you actually speak to Tom Massey?

0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I like the guy personally, but he seems

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 1>like he's he's off track. You do you speak to

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:13.200
<v Speaker 1>him to give him whisper in his ear? Sometimes? Said Tom,

0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:15.040
<v Speaker 1>comment down a little bit. I mean, do you guys

0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:15.760
<v Speaker 1>talk to each other?

0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:18.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh? Yeah, yeah, he's a good friend and a great guy.

0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.520
<v Speaker 4>And look, I love him and I love President Trump,

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:24.880
<v Speaker 4>and I wish that they weren't feuding. But Thomas is

0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:28.080
<v Speaker 4>easy to understand. He wants less government. Yeah, and there

0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:32.640
<v Speaker 4>are a lot of Republicans that want, you know, more government.

0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:35.760
<v Speaker 4>They just wanted to do Republican things instead of Democrat things. Well,

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.520
<v Speaker 4>when they put those kind of bills on the floor,

0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:38.840
<v Speaker 4>Thomas isn't going to vote for him.

0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:41.240
<v Speaker 3>And you know, if you want to do.

0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:45.200
<v Speaker 4>Foreign aid, whether it's for you know, Canada or Greenland

0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:49.880
<v Speaker 4>or Israel or any other country, Thomas didn't len' for it.

0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 4>Now that's not a mystery. And people say, well, you

0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:55.600
<v Speaker 4>know he voted against this big thing here, just like

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.719
<v Speaker 4>the Democrats. Well for way different reasons, right, I mean

0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:02.560
<v Speaker 4>totally different reasons. And I think that's a dishonest characterization

0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:03.520
<v Speaker 4>that people a lot of these.

0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:04.559
<v Speaker 3>People who don't really know and.

0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:07.000
<v Speaker 4>Don't follow it, and they're like, oh, who's this guy,

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.080
<v Speaker 4>He's a rhino Like well, maybe in the sense that

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:12.719
<v Speaker 4>Republicans don't really want a smaller, more accountable government, or

0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:15.079
<v Speaker 4>we'd eventually get one. You got to house, the Senate,

0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.960
<v Speaker 4>in the White House. Definits are drolling, they're not shrinking.

0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:22.280
<v Speaker 4>So Massy's out there, and it's like when I said

0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.080
<v Speaker 4>I wanted a smaller government, I'm in it. So if

0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:25.560
<v Speaker 4>you put that on the floor, I'll vote for it.

0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:28.360
<v Speaker 4>If you don't, I'm not voting for it. That's a

0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:32.200
<v Speaker 4>lot of inflexibility where Trump's like, look, I kind of

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 4>get it, but you're not helping me get what I

0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:37.440
<v Speaker 4>can get across the finishing line. And that's where like, look,

0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 4>Trump didn't want to keep any part of the Green

0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:42.480
<v Speaker 4>New Deal in the big beautiful bill, and unfortunately we

0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:44.600
<v Speaker 4>couldn't get rid of it. We barely got the votes

0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:48.000
<v Speaker 4>to defund NPR for goodness sakes. But that's where some

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.640
<v Speaker 4>of the frustration is, is like, people are Trump kind

0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:53.720
<v Speaker 4>of turned his guns on Massy, when the reality is

0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:57.720
<v Speaker 4>the people were really betraying the movement were the moderates

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:01.240
<v Speaker 4>that kept the Green New Deal funding. And you know,

0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:03.760
<v Speaker 4>I think that pragmatically, Trump's realized, well, I can't go

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:04.920
<v Speaker 4>to war with twenty people, but I.

0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:06.120
<v Speaker 3>Might be able to go to war with one.

0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, I noticed yesterday the Department of Treasury

0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:15.240
<v Speaker 1>said America has now hit thirty nine trillion dollars in debt.

0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:18.760
<v Speaker 1>I set thirty nine trillion dollars in debt, and so

0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I get Tom Massey's point completely. I think given your druthers,

0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:26.040
<v Speaker 1>you would agree we have to live within our means.

0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:29.360
<v Speaker 1>So what argument do I have to liberal Democrats that

0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:32.640
<v Speaker 1>the Republican Party is good on debt when under Trump

0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:36.320
<v Speaker 1>the first time, spending went up about seven trillion dollars

0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:38.480
<v Speaker 1>extra in debt, and now in the first year of

0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:42.000
<v Speaker 1>the Trump term, we had about another seven hundred billion

0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:44.600
<v Speaker 1>dollars on our way to a trillion, a trillion here

0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:46.680
<v Speaker 1>and a trillion there. Suddenly we have a lot of money.

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Right now it's thirty nine trillion dollars. How do you

0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:51.880
<v Speaker 1>respond to the issue that we spend money on different

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:53.719
<v Speaker 1>things and that debt simply goes up.

0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:54.960
<v Speaker 2>What do you say about that one?

0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 3>That's true?

0:10:56.880 --> 0:10:58.640
<v Speaker 4>I mean, like I say, I mean, we want a

0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:01.640
<v Speaker 4>smaller government, but we're not getting one, and you know,

0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:03.880
<v Speaker 4>we don't have the votes to deliver one. And that's

0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.040
<v Speaker 4>where I'm like, Look, we do not have a unified

0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:09.760
<v Speaker 4>political party that has like one set of ideologies. We've

0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:13.640
<v Speaker 4>got a Republican coalition and it's a whole range of people.

0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 4>If you want to smaller more accountable governments, then reinforcements,

0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:21.240
<v Speaker 4>but don't direct your fire against guys like Tom Massey.

0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:22.559
<v Speaker 4>Direct your fire against the people that.

0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 3>Want more government.

0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:27.320
<v Speaker 4>And you know, I call these guys the Surrender Caucus.

0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.640
<v Speaker 4>It's not a formal group. They don't hold meetings and

0:11:29.640 --> 0:11:32.079
<v Speaker 4>they don't disclose their lists. But you can look at

0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:36.000
<v Speaker 4>like the vote on you know, saving Obamacare. No Republican

0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:39.480
<v Speaker 4>voted on saving Obamacare and continuing these COVID subsidies on

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:45.480
<v Speaker 4>Obama Healthcare, but seventeen Republicans voted to keep that going.

0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:47.400
<v Speaker 4>And they're like, well, we can't just cut it off

0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:50.800
<v Speaker 4>cold turkey. I'm like, COVID's been over since you know,

0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:53.679
<v Speaker 4>twenty one. You know, you're sitting here. We've carried it

0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:57.000
<v Speaker 4>on for an extra four years. And it's just payments

0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:00.199
<v Speaker 4>to insurance companies and it's not even traditional Obamacare.

0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:01.880
<v Speaker 3>But people don't want to explain it.

0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.679
<v Speaker 4>They're like, well, people think we're turning off all of Obamacare.

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:07.240
<v Speaker 4>We just need to keep cutting the checks. Now, those

0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 4>are the people that keep us from doing good things.

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:13.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, you kind of have a district that includes

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:16.760
<v Speaker 1>parts of Cincinnati, is that true, Well.

0:12:16.720 --> 0:12:19.320
<v Speaker 4>Doesn't include any of the city limits.

0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:20.640
<v Speaker 3>It's basically the west side.

0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:25.439
<v Speaker 4>So everything essentially from the Ronald Regan bypassed like Wyoming

0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:28.679
<v Speaker 4>right there, Glendale side of seventy five except for o

0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:32.680
<v Speaker 4>High Township right to the city limits is the district.

0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 3>Of course, it's changed in this.

0:12:34.640 --> 0:12:36.600
<v Speaker 4>Election cycle, and we'll go all the way over at

0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:38.720
<v Speaker 4>the eighth district to go all over to Blue Ash

0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:41.240
<v Speaker 4>and have Montgomery parts of Madeira and Indian Hill.

0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Wait a minute, what about what about Kenwood? Who's my congressman?

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:47.479
<v Speaker 1>I know everything. I have no idea who my congressman is.

0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Who's he now? Is it Landsman?

0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:50.520
<v Speaker 3>Right now?

0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:54.560
<v Speaker 4>It's Greg Lansman. And if everything goes right in January

0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 4>third to next year, it'll become Warren Davidson.

0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's good. I can call you, I can be

0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:01.200
<v Speaker 1>constituent anger. I'll be angry at you all the time.

0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:04.400
<v Speaker 3>So that'll I'll have to have an extra phone line added.

0:13:05.240 --> 0:13:05.440
<v Speaker 2>Now.

0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Lastly, there's a movement of foot uh in Washington, d C.

0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Which I think, uh, we know what's going to happen

0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:16.480
<v Speaker 1>in November if things don't go the right way. The

0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>impeachment trials of every cabinet official, beginning with the course,

0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:24.360
<v Speaker 1>President Trump and I think JD. Vance and everyone knows

0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:25.960
<v Speaker 1>at the top of the list all of them are

0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:29.560
<v Speaker 1>going to be impeached. Can you imagine in November if

0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:33.800
<v Speaker 1>the American people unwisely turn over the Congress to elon

0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:36.960
<v Speaker 1>Omar and her ilk and they're in charge of the

0:13:37.000 --> 0:13:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Congress with subpoena power. Talk to me about the road

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:41.440
<v Speaker 1>that would be taken in November.

0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.240
<v Speaker 3>It's the same one they've already done. I mean, in

0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:46.800
<v Speaker 3>a minute. The Democrats have the majeordy.

0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:50.480
<v Speaker 4>They try to push a discharge on impeaching Christy Nome,

0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:53.640
<v Speaker 4>you know, this year already, so they want to get

0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:57.840
<v Speaker 4>rid of Christy Nome and book. You know, for the

0:13:57.960 --> 0:13:59.680
<v Speaker 4>for the people that are frustrated, that's a good sign

0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:03.680
<v Speaker 4>she's onto something. The HS is getting something productive done

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:06.920
<v Speaker 4>because the Democrats want to impeach her. But you know, nevertheless,

0:14:06.960 --> 0:14:09.520
<v Speaker 4>look at how much time that will take in distraction

0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:13.959
<v Speaker 4>and frankly money. You know, they impeached President Trump over

0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:18.240
<v Speaker 4>calling Ukraine and saying shouldn't somebody look into this? And

0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:21.040
<v Speaker 4>most of the things that you say shouldn't somebody look into?

0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:25.280
<v Speaker 4>Once the investigations were done were vindicated. I mean Hunter

0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:29.800
<v Speaker 4>Biden was getting deals from Ukraine. Ukraine was paying out

0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:33.400
<v Speaker 4>money and corruption, and all he said was you got

0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:35.480
<v Speaker 4>to look into that. And you're like, why wouldn't the

0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:37.520
<v Speaker 4>State Department do that? Why wouldn't the Department of.

0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:38.240
<v Speaker 3>Justice do that?

0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:40.960
<v Speaker 4>It took the President of the United States to do it,

0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:45.000
<v Speaker 4>and because he was over the target, Democrats impeached him

0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 4>for it.

0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Are you endorsing are you.

0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:48.640
<v Speaker 3>Doubt that they would continue to do it?

0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Warren Davidson? Are you endorsing Thomas Massey? Whatever that's worth

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:56.000
<v Speaker 1>in Ohio to Kentucky, Are you endorsing Congressman Thomas Massey?

0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Would you vote for him Northern Kentucky if you could.

0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:01.480
<v Speaker 4>If I lived in Northern Kentucky, I would enthusiastically vote

0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:04.080
<v Speaker 4>for Thomas Massey. I think he's a great guy. He's

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:07.560
<v Speaker 4>a truly effective member of Congress. And you know, look,

0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.600
<v Speaker 4>I love President Trump, I love Thomas. I wish they

0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:14.320
<v Speaker 4>would get along better. But I'm not confused by his votes.

0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:17.520
<v Speaker 4>And I'd say, don't fall for the information off out

0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:18.680
<v Speaker 4>there on Thomas.

0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.840
<v Speaker 3>He's a good guy doing the right things.

0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:24.240
<v Speaker 4>There are some where you're like, man, we need your vote,

0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:26.960
<v Speaker 4>and that's where I get frustrated right with some of

0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:30.000
<v Speaker 4>the folks. I'm not going to say there's no room

0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:33.200
<v Speaker 4>on the right if this is NASCAR and racing, but

0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:35.720
<v Speaker 4>that's where the wall is, right, you don't go into

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:37.920
<v Speaker 4>the wall. I think Massy might have some paint off

0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 4>the right side of the car there because he hit

0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:39.920
<v Speaker 4>the wall.

0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:40.520
<v Speaker 3>A couple of times.

0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:44.080
<v Speaker 4>And you know, if you don't pass anything, nothing changes.

0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 4>So at some point you got to look at it

0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:47.920
<v Speaker 4>and say, well, we got to pass the best thing

0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:50.080
<v Speaker 4>that we can get across the finish line. There's a

0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:53.800
<v Speaker 4>couple of things there where I think people get frustrated because.

0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:54.400
<v Speaker 3>We don't have the votes.

0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:57.760
<v Speaker 4>But my frustration is on the other end, like why

0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:00.640
<v Speaker 4>are we boxed into this situation. We did and campaign

0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:04.160
<v Speaker 4>on saving the Green New Deal. Every Republican voted against it.

0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:06.560
<v Speaker 4>But now when we have the majority and it's time

0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:10.840
<v Speaker 4>to play the cards, the people that are betraying the movement,

0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:13.200
<v Speaker 4>they're not even getting named.

0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 4>That's what I call the surrender caucus. They're the reason

0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:19.000
<v Speaker 4>we can't have nice things. That's my frustration, and in

0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 4>general I have a weight in against those folks and primaries.

0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:26.960
<v Speaker 4>I just say send reinforcements for people that really do

0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:28.960
<v Speaker 4>want to do what we say we would do, and yeah,

0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.480
<v Speaker 4>tell us this frustration is, let's do what we said.

0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:32.840
<v Speaker 3>We would do, and we're not doing that.

0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:35.680
<v Speaker 1>You can't do that. And and just look, Democrats are

0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:38.960
<v Speaker 1>like pack animals. If one goes one direction, I guarantee

0:16:38.960 --> 0:16:41.080
<v Speaker 1>you you're not going to have ten or twenty Democrats

0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:44.360
<v Speaker 1>break off from M CKEM Jeffries and Alan Omar and

0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Nancy Pelosi and be on their own. Democrats are pack animals,

0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 1>and of course Republicans are like cats. They're pretty hard

0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:54.240
<v Speaker 1>to herd. But we'll see what happens by if you

0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:55.720
<v Speaker 1>had to put your chips down, whether it be a

0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:57.480
<v Speaker 1>government shut down on the thirtieth or not.

0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:00.440
<v Speaker 4>I don't think so. I think they'll be a big

0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:02.880
<v Speaker 4>deal cut. But that basically means that we're going to

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.280
<v Speaker 4>get more spending and more debt.

0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:09.239
<v Speaker 1>Well great, well some of the accomplishments. I look at

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:13.080
<v Speaker 1>things like immigration. Trump did that, ending DEI, he did that,

0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:16.359
<v Speaker 1>returning public education in the States, he did that. Lowering

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:19.600
<v Speaker 1>drug costs was going to metastasize in the next few weeks.

0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:20.320
<v Speaker 2>He did that.

0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Deregulation, the big beautiful bill that's going to be realized

0:17:23.760 --> 0:17:26.040
<v Speaker 1>sometime in the first quarter of this year. No tax

0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:29.520
<v Speaker 1>on tips and overtime social security. And also we have

0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.120
<v Speaker 1>the President of Peace who spoke this morning in Davos.

0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:34.840
<v Speaker 1>I loved every minute of it. Congressman Warren Davidson, you're

0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:37.480
<v Speaker 1>a great American. I look forward today that Greg Landsman

0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 1>will not be my Congressman.

0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:41.520
<v Speaker 2>It'll be you. So get ready for my phone calls.

0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:44.960
<v Speaker 3>I can't wait. And look, one big thing.

0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:48.640
<v Speaker 4>Not only did President Trump secure the border, Olkins give

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:50.320
<v Speaker 4>him a lot of money to do it, and that

0:17:50.440 --> 0:17:52.919
<v Speaker 4>was another key part of the big beautiful bill. So

0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:55.920
<v Speaker 4>in the worst case scenario, even if the Homeland Security

0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:59.080
<v Speaker 4>bill gets caught up and somehow the demotrats succeed in that,

0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:01.520
<v Speaker 4>know that we're going to keep securing the border.

0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Well we'll see what occurs. Tough times don't last, but

0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:07.920
<v Speaker 1>tough men and women do. My mother was a tough

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:10.720
<v Speaker 1>woman who weighed ninety five pounds, and she pointed her

0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:12.960
<v Speaker 1>finger at me. I could be thirty five or forty

0:18:13.040 --> 0:18:14.720
<v Speaker 1>years old at all I did say yes Mom.

0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:16.760
<v Speaker 2>That's all. I said, yes Mom. I called her ma,

0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:17.320
<v Speaker 2>Yes Ma.

0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:19.359
<v Speaker 1>She said, Billy you're going to do this, Augize, Ma,

0:18:19.560 --> 0:18:21.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to do it so it's not about the size,

0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:24.679
<v Speaker 1>it's about the power, and the Trumpster's got the power.

0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:27.399
<v Speaker 1>Warren Davidson, you're a great American. Thanks for coming on

0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:29.600
<v Speaker 1>the Bill Cunningham Show. And God bless you, and God

0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:30.360
<v Speaker 1>bless America.

0:18:30.480 --> 0:18:33.080
<v Speaker 3>Thank you always an honor. God bless you and all

0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:33.600
<v Speaker 3>your listeners.
