1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Buck Sexton Show. On this episode, 2 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna, which is so fun to say 3 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: because I knew her when she was just Anna Paulina, 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: a friend of mine for years, and now she is 5 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: a member of United States Congress. She's also a veteran 6 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,799 Speaker 1: and somebody who's got a whole range of things to 7 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: talk to us about today, Anna Paulina, Great to have 8 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: you on the program, Very exciting, very happy to be back. Buck. 9 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: So I don't want to start with this. There's a 10 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,959 Speaker 1: lot of big issues. We got to save America. It's 11 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: keeping me busy, keeping you busy different ways, but we're 12 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 1: rowing the boat in the same directions. How's being in Congress? 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 1: You know, this is funny because really you're like a 14 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: peer of mine that I knew outside. And there were 15 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of friends of mine who ran in 16 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: this last cycle. By the way, you were one. I 17 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: think I had about six or seven friends running for Congress. 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 1: You're the only one who won. So thank you, well done. 19 00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: And what's it like? It's been a pretty crazy learning experience. 20 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: What I keep what really blows my mind is how 21 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: time works in Washington. So I've only been in for 22 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: a little over two months now, maybe going on three months, 23 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,759 Speaker 1: But the craziest thing is that I feel like I've 24 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: already been there for like ten years. And then when 25 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: I go up to Washington, you know, you live your 26 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: life in fifteen minute increments, whether it's meetings, whether it's 27 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: running in between committees, hearings, testifying, all of that, and 28 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: so it's a huge learning curve. But really everything that 29 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: I thought going into this, you know, one of my 30 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: biggest goals for why I wanted to run is I 31 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: really wanted to help change the national discussion on issues 32 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: and how to fix these problems. And as a member 33 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: of Congress, you know, my hunch was correct. Now when 34 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: I send out press releases, when I'm debating on the 35 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 1: House floor, when I'm talking in committee, the press picks 36 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: up on that, and it really does contribute to not 37 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: only educating the American people, but also to solving some 38 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: of these problems. So it's been a really rewarding experience. 39 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: It's a ton of work. I definitely am not going 40 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: to be doing it forever, but I don't ever anticipate 41 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: or take it for granted that I'm just going to 42 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: get reelected. So I'm making account while I'm there, and 43 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: I'm very honored to represent Florida's thirteenth congressional district. So, 44 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: know what do people who who were paying very close 45 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: attention to the rebels. I don't know if you guys 46 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: ever had an official an official name, but the rebels 47 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: pretty good, right, you know, insurgence makes people think of 48 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: something else, So I think rebels is probably pretty pretty good. 49 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: But you guys didn't just go along with the McCarthy speakership. 50 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: You there was wrangling for a few days. I remember saying. 51 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: I was like, Yeah, isn't this what is supposed to 52 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: happen in Congress? What do people need to know about? 53 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: What really came out of that? What happened? So there 54 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: was the speakers fight, McCarthy became the speaker, but some stuff, 55 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: some concessions were made. What do people need to know? Well, also, 56 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: some of the biggest concessions were actually already seeing it 57 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: play out. And really this was when I tell people, 58 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: it's like if you have an argument with your brother 59 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: or sister, right like, sometimes it's really good to just 60 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: clear the air. You guys come to an agreement, and 61 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: then you move forward and as a result of that, 62 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: I mean, not only did other members in our Republican 63 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: delegation actually see what we were negotiating, and actually during 64 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: that entire time, through all fifteen rounds, we're pulling us 65 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: aside and saying like, look, we really appreciate what you're doing, 66 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: we support it. We don't really want to say anything 67 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: because we don't want to get in trouble necessarily, But ultimately, 68 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: as a result of that, the entire conference feels a 69 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: lot more united. But one of the biggest things that 70 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: we did was we set the bar and negotiating platform 71 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: for whether or not we were going to be raising 72 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: the debt ceiling. We set the terms and conditions for 73 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: ultimately getting rid of the consolidation of power that existed 74 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: in the House. So under Nancy Pelosi, she got rid 75 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: of an accountability mechanism called the motion to vacate the chair, 76 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: which means that if you have a Speaker of the 77 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: House and they go back on their promise to the 78 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: delegation and to the American people on what their goals 79 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: and objectives are for the country, you can actually do 80 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: something called vacating the chair. And it was actually put 81 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: in place by Thomas Jefferson, which stood for over two 82 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: hundred years, and of course Pelosi got the gabble and 83 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: she basically ran it like she was basically the Supreme Chancellor. 84 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: I mean, there was no voices for the representatives. We 85 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: couldn't bring amendments to the floor. You had the Rules 86 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: Committee that a lot of people might not realize, but 87 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 1: it's a small group of elected representatives. A lot of 88 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: them were moderates. And so when people want to know, 89 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: you know, why was it in twenty sixteen when President 90 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: Trump had the White House, the Congress, and Senate, why 91 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: couldn't he pass certain legislation, Well, it's because the Rules 92 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: Committee killed that legislation. And so we actually fought to 93 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: get conservatives people that actually have, in my opinion, being 94 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: a conservative, better approaches not just to fiscal responsibility, but 95 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: also to to backing the constitution. Get these conservatives in 96 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: positions where they can have a voice, whether it is 97 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: on appropriation with the budget plan, whether it is on 98 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: the rules Committee, so that we can bring rules to 99 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: the floor. And then obviously one of my favorite is 100 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: I ran on term limits and we actually have an 101 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: agreement to bring a bill to the floor to vote 102 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 1: on whether or not. We were going to pass term 103 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: limits in the House, and so you will be able 104 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: to see exactly what members of Congress are for and 105 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: against term limits, which is something we really need in 106 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: this country. The dead ceiling fight that looms, is it 107 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: going to be a real fight? And do you think 108 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: we could actually get something out of it? Yeah, we 109 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: will be getting something out of it. And I say 110 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 1: that I was actually just at an event with Representative 111 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan and Chairman Scott Perry of the Freedom Caucus 112 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: and we actually, as a Freedom Caucus adopted an official 113 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 1: position and put it out for everyone to see. So 114 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: if you really want to look into that, you can 115 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,679 Speaker 1: head over to the Freedom Caucus website and check it out. 116 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: And not even two hours after we did that press conference, 117 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: you had the Biden White House saying that MAGA extremists 118 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: were basically trying to shut down the country, which is 119 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: not true. All we're simply saying is we're not going 120 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: to continue down this path of reckless spending. We know 121 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: the Biden budget, which he's not going to get, by 122 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: the way, wanted to increase by trillions of dollars, and 123 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: we're saying, hey, COVID is no more. Why are we 124 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,239 Speaker 1: still operating in pandemic level spendings when it's been declared 125 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: not even a national emergency anymore. So we're going to 126 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: go back to or attempt to go back to twenty 127 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: nineteen fiscal spending, and then we are going to do 128 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: something called recisions, which is a mechanism that Congress has 129 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: to actually claw back some of the money that was 130 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: already allocated to be spent for a lot of these 131 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 1: woke programs, and we're actually going to bring that back. So, like, 132 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: even if we don't raise the debt ceiling and just 133 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: operate as is, what ends up happening is that's gonna 134 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: be the first time and I'd say over a decade 135 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: that we haven't raised the debt ceiling, and in my opinion, 136 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: we shouldn't be raising it. You know, at some point 137 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: someone's going to have to pay for this. And I 138 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: hate to bring up what happened with SVB Bank, but 139 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: that's a bailout. You know, a lot of people don't 140 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: want to call it that, but it is, and we're 141 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: going to be the ones paying for it. So conservatives 142 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 1: are being branded as you know, kind of the leper, 143 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: the lepers in Washington because we don't want to, you know, 144 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: just cave roll over and state we'll deal with it later. 145 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: We're going to handle it now. And I think that 146 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: we'll actually get something done this cycle. So remember we 147 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: have those twenty names, and those twenty names aren't playing, 148 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: you know, you Chip Roy Massey. I mean, some of 149 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: the names that have been involved so far, it makes 150 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: me think these are people who are going to see 151 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: this through. Yes, and yeah, I think I think that's 152 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: one lesson that people should take from all this. But 153 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: what does victory in a debt ceiling fight look given 154 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: the realities of where we are, you know, politically, what 155 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: does victory in the debt ceiling fight this year look like? 156 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: Meaning best possible? I'm not saying what will happen? What 157 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: is best possible scenario? From a conservative perspective, I'd say 158 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: best possible is, if possible, not raising the debt ceiling, 159 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: going back to pre pandemic level spending, and then recisions. 160 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: Recisions are important because when you have the administration and 161 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: really what they did with the Omnibus, which let's be 162 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: clear that was completely wrong. They should have not done that, 163 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: and really we were stabbed in literally not even the back, 164 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: but in the front by you know, Mitch McConnell in 165 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: regards to that. But with a lot of what we're 166 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: seeing happening is, you know, we need to be able 167 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: to take that back and a lot of these programs, 168 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: you have pots of money that are basically sitting in 169 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: different programs, different places around the country that are untouched. 170 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: And yet you have different entities of the federal government 171 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: that are saying that they can't operate if we don't 172 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: continue to raise it, when again, we're out of a pandemic. 173 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: So we need to seriously look at this. I frankly 174 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: don't care if people don't like me for saying this, 175 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: but like you would never operate your own bank account 176 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: the way that some of these representatives operate the federal 177 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: government's budget, And so I think that that's important to 178 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 1: note that you have people up there that are basically 179 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: spending I don't know if they don't realize that if 180 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: you spend recklessly, it leads to inflation and it's going 181 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: to tank our country. But every single you know, major 182 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: empire has failed because of what we're seeing happening now, 183 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: and so it would be stupid to continue down the 184 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: same path. Of doing the same thing over and over again. 185 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: I want to ask me come back in a second. 186 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: I've just got to have a word from our sponsor, 187 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: but I want to ask you, what are some of 188 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: the things that conservative colleagues in Congress are considering down 189 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: the road that you think are transformative, really important ideas 190 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: that Look, we know Biden the Senate, it's not going 191 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: to happen now, but twenty twenty four is going to 192 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: be here soon. So I just wanted to put that 193 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: thought out there as to what are some things that 194 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: you think could be achieved if we have the kind 195 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: of victory in twenty twenty four that I do think 196 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: is possible, especially if we go into a recession, which 197 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: I also think is more than possible. I think it's likely, 198 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: but we'll get to that in a second. Just talking 199 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: about recession, the bank failures we've seen are the largest 200 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: since the collapse of a financial institution known as Lehman 201 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: Brothers back in two thousand and eight. So if you've 202 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: been on the fence about buying gold then silver, now 203 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 1: is the time to make the call.

So best things that Congress 232 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: could do, like the kind of things that they should 233 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: be saying they will do if all goes according to 234 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: plan for twenty twenty four, what are they give me? 235 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: One or two? Number one that's very realistic that we're 236 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: already starting to see movement on is decoupling from China. 237 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,199 Speaker 1: So I'll give you an example. We basically one of 238 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: the committees that I'm on, I'm on Oversight, which conducts 239 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: the investigations, and then Natural Resources, which handles a lot 240 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: of our American energy independence and the natural resources here 241 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: in this country. But you know, we passed an amendment 242 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: to really prevent any company that is engaged in illegal 243 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: mining operations or human rights abuses and other parts of 244 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: the world to actually be able to mine here in 245 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 1: the United States. So China has a lot of these 246 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: companies and then they work with American based companies and yet, 247 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: for example, their cobalt mines in the Congo. You actually 248 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: have young people that sometimes youngest two years old up 249 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: to seventeen, that they're drugging, starving, and basically operating slave minds, 250 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: and then we buy it here and consume that here 251 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: in the United States. So I think from a humanitarian 252 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: perspective and American abundance for energy, really allowing that that 253 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: angle to operate here at home is the best right. 254 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: Even if you look at it from a climate change perspective, 255 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: China is destroying the environment, and so I've actually gotten 256 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: to a few of these debates on natural resources. Even 257 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: if you're talking from that perspective. Let's say you believe 258 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: in climate change, Well, China's destroy the environment, so why 259 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: wouldn't we do it here at home? And so I 260 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: think that d couple, whether it's from a production perspective 261 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: or from just a human rights perspective, I think that 262 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: that's going to start to happen. And then my number 263 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: one thing that I've been talking about for years and 264 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: I still think is probably single handedly the most important 265 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: thing that we can do as a country is really 266 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: to break up big tech. And so, as I'm sure 267 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: you saw with that oversight hearing where I had Yo 268 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: Roth from Twitter in there and we were questioning them 269 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: about Kia and how they were illegally coordinating with the 270 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security and these outside organizations to censor 271 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: the American people. You know that should never happen. But 272 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 1: realize that these companies, being as powerful as they are, 273 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: they are still actively engaged in suppression and they are 274 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: really tilting the balance in regards to some of these elections, 275 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: even with information just for presidential cycles. And so we 276 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: have to break that up. That's kind of our new fight. 277 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: That's going to be our generation's version of the Alama. 278 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: And so I'm peer for it. I'm leading it. I 279 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: think right you're yelling, yelling for the rampart, You're you're 280 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 1: throwing down over this. You're not You're not just You're 281 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: not just president. You are you are storming the barricades. 282 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: Um Actually want to ask you also about because you mentioned, 283 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 1: you know, China and foreign influence and all the rest 284 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: of it, does anything actually happen to any of the 285 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: Biden family members with all the CCP money that's come in, 286 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: all the COMI cash from Beijing that's been floated into 287 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: the coffers of the Biden family, do you think anything 288 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: really happens You're on House oversight. So we just last week, 289 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: we just received information in regards to this is from 290 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 1: the Treasury, So it's not just from a random sources 291 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: from the actual Treasury that showed that the Biden and 292 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: the Biden family was receiving wire transfers from the CCP 293 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: into the millions of dollars within months of him leaving 294 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: office as Vice president. And then from the administration's perspective, 295 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: we see this massive soft on China approach where they 296 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: are literally coddling the CCP. So you cannot tell me 297 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: that this administration, that this president is not compromised, but 298 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: in my opinion, the Justice Department is compromised. And so 299 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: what ends up happening is where they would typically bring 300 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: investigations forward, where you would typically have that accountability accountability mechanism. 301 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: Right now, I don't think that that really exists. Like 302 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: if that was like that was me, for example, and 303 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: my husband was receiving wire transfers from the CCP, like 304 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: I'd probably be in jail, I wouldn't be able to 305 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: hold office. And so the fact is is that it's wrong. 306 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: What's happening. We have something that we also negotiated in 307 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: the Speakers debate known as the hallam And rule, and 308 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: that can defund any federal position and basically remove the job. 309 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: We actually put it in place because of what happened 310 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: with doctor Fauci and the fact that he was obviously 311 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: not working in the best interests of the American people 312 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: during Code Response. But I believe that we can use 313 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: that position as well for you know, the DJ if 314 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: they're not going to do their jobs, and these people 315 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: that are corrupt, why should we be paying them. That's 316 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: kind of that accountability mechanism that Congress has. We have 317 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: the purse strings, right, and so that's what we're going 318 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: to try to use. But it's really upsetting sometimes, especially 319 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: as a member of Congress, because you realize that as 320 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: a Republican, as a conservative, even when we take back 321 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: the White House and the Senate, that the corruption and 322 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: bureaucracy in Washington, DC it's there. And that's why I 323 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: encourage people if you are looking to get involved in politics, 324 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: if you're really just tired of seeing what's happening, get 325 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: go to DC, like be the new blood that we 326 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: need there because people get entrenched and really a member, 327 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: you know, whether you're in Senate, whether you're in Congress. 328 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: Even a president, it's still a term. You have to 329 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: get reelected. But these bureaucrats stay there for decades and 330 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: so they're the ones that have the consolidation of power 331 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: that I think are responsible for. This is the swamp drainable. 332 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: It is, but it's going to take more people getting involved. 333 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: You know, a lot of people say, well, I'm going 334 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: to do it by running for Congress. I'm going to 335 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: do it by running for exenate. That is only one part. 336 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: We actually have to have good people up there that 337 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: are pushing in new blood, whether it's you know, and 338 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: this is the one thing I will say, whoever the 339 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: next president is, which I've already publicly pledge my support 340 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: for President Trump, but either which way, we need people 341 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: from outside Washington to be appointed to some of the 342 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,120 Speaker 1: positions because it has become so bad up there right 343 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 1: now that what ends up happening is we might have ideas, 344 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: right like, let's say I go up there and I 345 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: have this great idea for you know, a car that 346 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 1: doesn't emit any pollution. This is just an example. Well, 347 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: if you have someone up there that doesn't like your idea, 348 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: even if it's at a lower level, They're going to 349 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: kill that before it even has a chance to survive. 350 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: And that's ultimately what we're seeing happening, not just from 351 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: a policy perspective, but from a justice perspective. And I 352 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: believe that this country is worth saving and we cannot 353 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: continue down this path. But what I have seen from 354 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: an insider perspective now, just in the last couple of 355 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: months has really opened eyes and shown me that we 356 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: need a lot more people, a lot more good people involved, 357 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: because right now we're really fighting with one hand behind 358 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 1: our back. An you brought it up that would you 359 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: would vote for Trump in this primary? So I want 360 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: to come back to I want to ask you why. 361 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: I'm very curious one of your I think everybody else 362 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: that curious too. So we'll come and I just just 363 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: put that out there. I want to know what you 364 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: what you're reasoning is. We'll come back to that in 365 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: a second, but first, the Tunne of the Towers Foundation 366 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: does such critical work honoring the fallen and severely injured 367 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: heroes of the nine to eleven era and beyond, and 368 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 1: they do this with mortgage free smart homes. This year alone, 369 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 1: hundreds of gold star and fallen first responder families with 370 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: young children, and our nation's most severely injured veterans and 371 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: first responders are receiving homes. More than five hundred homeless 372 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 1: veterans received housing and services last year. More than fifteen 373 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 1: hundred receiving housing and services this year and this coming 374 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: Memorial Day, all the brave men and women low since 375 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: nine to eleven in the War on Terror are having 376 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: their names read aloud in a Tone of the Towers 377 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: ceremony in our nation's capital. Through the Tunnel of the 378 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: Towers nine to eleven Institute, the foundation is educating kids 379 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,360 Speaker 1: in kindergarten through twelfth grade about our nation's darkest day. 380 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: Joined Tune of the Towers on its mission to do good. 381 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 1: Please help America to never forget its greatest heroes. Join 382 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: me in donating eleven dollars a month the Tune of 383 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: the Towers at t twot dot org. That's t the 384 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: number two t dot org. All right, Sue, first of all, 385 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 1: your husband's Special Forces veteran, and you yourself or an 386 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: Air Force veteran. So does it, ever, does it feel 387 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: like we've moved on a little bit too quickly here 388 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: past what a lot of our men and women in 389 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: uniform had to do to serve our country overseas. It 390 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: feels like we don't hear as much about it these days. Now. 391 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: In fact, this is again some i'd blowing stuff I've 392 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: actually witnessed as an insider now, is that if you 393 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: are a conservative and a Republican that that doesn't matter. 394 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 1: There is no respect level for serving your country. And 395 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: in fact, I'm actually conducting an investigation right now with 396 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: House Oversight looking into how it was that the Air 397 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 1: Force managed to release the private documents health information, social 398 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: security numbers, and entire unredacted service records of sitting members 399 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: of Congress as well as candidates that were running for 400 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 1: office in the twenty twenty two election cycle. And so 401 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: I figured that the Air Force would probably not playball, 402 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: especially being that we have Lloyd Austin right now that's 403 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: in charge of everything. And so two days after I 404 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: sent my request to the Air Force, I actually also 405 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: decided to work with Judicial Watch Tafoya Information, And of 406 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: course last week we got a response from the Air 407 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: Force basically telling us to go pounce in and that 408 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 1: they would cooperate with our inquiry. And so it doesn't matter, 409 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: We're going to get the information anyways, But there is 410 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: a lack of respect for service in Washington, and unless 411 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: you're really a warhawk, I think that they try to 412 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: suppress your voice. And it's interesting because most people that 413 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: see war and long term inputs of that, I don't 414 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: think that they would advocate for the way that some 415 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 1: of these people do in Washington, DC. And so I 416 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: actually recently got on board with Representative Gates and a 417 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: few others, and surprisingly a quarter of Congress actually voted 418 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: to actually withdraw from Syria. And so you're starting to 419 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: see I think that be more of a popular perspective 420 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 1: and that we don't want endless wars, especially in this 421 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: generation and this Congress. But it's still going to take 422 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: a lot more pole that I think have the ability 423 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: to have a voice and aren't afraid of the military 424 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: industrial complex. Somebody who's definitely not afraid of the military 425 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: industrial complex is former President Donald Trump. And you have 426 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 1: already said, you've said it here on the podcast, that 427 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: he is your guy. You'll support another Republican if the 428 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: Republican is up against a Democrat, but he is your 429 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,959 Speaker 1: guy for this twenty twenty four election from the GOP side. 430 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: Why you know, what I've learned as a candidate running 431 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: for office and now as a member is that when 432 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: people are worried about being elected again, sometimes it ultimately 433 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: prevents them from being as effective as they could be 434 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: if they weren't concerned about that. And I feel like 435 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: right now, from a international perspective, the United States is 436 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 1: not respected. We have a lot of stuff happening, not 437 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: just with our oil and gas industry, but from a 438 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 1: perspective of Russia is aligning with China, who's aligned with Iran, 439 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: and they don't respect us, and they don't respect us 440 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: because of our leadership. And I want someone that from 441 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: an economic and policy perspective, can run this country how 442 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: it should be run and get us back to not 443 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: only being a world superpower, but a world superpower that's 444 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: respected and that doesn't necessarily have World War three knocking 445 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: at our front door as it is right now. And 446 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: So when I look at the field of candidates and 447 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: I look at who can actually make those decisions, who's 448 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: unconcerned about seeking a second term in presidency, I think 449 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: that that's President Trump. Penny he's elected, he will be 450 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: probably one of the most effective presidents because of the 451 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: fact that he's not worried about that second term in office, 452 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: and I think that that's what we need right now. 453 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: And also too, I mean, I think it's a pretty good, 454 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: pretty good thing to say that when you have the 455 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 1: entire Washington establishment against you and you're fighting for the 456 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: American people, that's who I want representing me. I don't 457 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: want someone that's going to be basically bought and paid 458 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: for by special interest. And now something else. I wanted 459 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: to switch gears a little bit. I know you have 460 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: an interest you mentioned reigning in big tech, which is 461 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 1: which is essential. I keep telling people if big tech 462 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: is able to collude with the federal government, with the 463 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: with the Democrat apparatus within the federal government and the 464 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: cabal at place like DJ you can talk about you know, 465 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: mail in ballots and a lot of other things, but 466 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: we might lose anyway because the power that they have 467 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: to move the narrative and to create perception. There has 468 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: never been in the history of the planet a more 469 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: powerful propaganda machine than big tech. I think that's very clear. 470 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: But as artificial intelligence may take this to another level. 471 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: And I wanted you to speak about what you see 472 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: on the horizon because I know you're looking at this 473 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: as a former member of the Air Force and as 474 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: the United States congressman right now? Congresswoman by the way, 475 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: just quick question, QUI quick question? Or is that a 476 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 1: thing like are we supposed to say congressman congresswoman? Or 477 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: do people just say, I know, you can just be 478 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: a member of Congress, but are we supposed to gender 479 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: or is it like, you know, actor Now, I know 480 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: it sounds crazy, but you're not supposed to say actress. 481 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: Everyone's just an actor. They just use the term actor. 482 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: They don't want that chriss. So do we still we 483 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: still go with congressman congresswoman? Right? Who usually do? I 484 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: usually actually prefer representative just because I feel like it's 485 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: more approachable, like repolunas like usually what I respond to. 486 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 1: But you know, I'm really used to I think this 487 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: is probably an air force in me. When I was 488 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: in the Air Force, I just went by airmen, you 489 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: know whatever. And so when people call me congressman, I 490 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 1: don't get offended or you know, member of Congress. You know, 491 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 1: I just I respond to as is. But it is 492 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: really interesting that a lot of the people that use 493 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: pronouns in Washington and their you know, email bios still 494 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: go by Congresswoman. So yes, it is interesting. Indeed, all right, 495 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: so back to back to this, so big tech is 496 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: the most effective propaganda machine ever built. We agree on 497 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: that AI may do something even beyond what we've seen. 498 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: What could that be? AI is scary, you know. I've 499 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: had this debate because we actually just had a hearing 500 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: with actually the founder and engineer in Google came in 501 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: and testified to one of the subcommittees. An oversight that 502 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: I'm on and what scares me about AI is that 503 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 1: it really has the ability to make us obsolete. And 504 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: what stops a machine something that can't learn empathy, that 505 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: doesn't really have the human perspective, doesn't have a spirit, 506 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: and cannot really truly understand the spiritual aspect of like 507 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: what is right and what is wrong? From thinking that 508 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: humans are basically a parasite to Earth and destroying us all. 509 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: And that's really what I'm concerned about. You have countries 510 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: like Iran, China, Russia that could weaponize this or terrorists, 511 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: let's say, there's crazy people out there, and so I 512 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 1: think it can be both good and bad, but it's 513 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 1: definitely something that I didn't want to have to deal 514 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: with in my generation, but I think that we're going 515 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 1: to and so I think that we have to be 516 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: very careful with it. There's an aspect of national security 517 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: that goes along with it and an aspect of human 518 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: survival that I think a lot of people aren't mentioning, 519 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: and so it's going to be interesting to see how 520 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: it plays out. But AI will have the opera. It's 521 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: really going to make I think many jobs that we 522 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: have that humans participate, whether you're a doctor, whether you 523 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: are a mathematician, whether you're engineer, architect, it's it's going 524 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 1: to make those jobs obsolete. And so it'll be interesting 525 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 1: to see how society changes as a whole as we 526 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 1: move forward with this evolution of AI and how it's 527 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: going to really, I think impact US long term as 528 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 1: a culture, not just from the United States perspective, but 529 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: I think from around the world. I should have asked 530 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 1: us when we're talking about the big tech side of it, 531 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: But just a circle back to that before maybe ask 532 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: another AI question, TikTok should it be banned by the 533 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: federal government? And then Comma, where am I going to 534 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: find out the best way to see a wag? You 535 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: steake and meltwall grow on top of it at the 536 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 1: same time. So I did. I did co sponsor a 537 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,719 Speaker 1: bill to actually band TikTok, and I did that because 538 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 1: TikTok is probably the biggest intelligence gathering operation for the CCP, 539 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: not just that, I mean it's literally brainwashing our kids. 540 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: When you look at actually what China's showing their youth 541 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: on their version of TikTok versus what they show our 542 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: youth here, I mean you have literally women twerking and 543 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: you know, not all of its steaks. But when you 544 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: ask young people what the number one job is they 545 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: want to have when they grow up, they say influencer. 546 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: In China, it's astronaut. And that's because of what they 547 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: actually show their people. Now, I'm not advocating for China 548 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: censorship because that's what it is. But they have specifically 549 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 1: engineered TikTok to target young people with an effort to brainwash. 550 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 1: And then they also found that on TikTok they actually 551 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: will artificially inflate the algorithms of certain inciniary content to 552 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: make political parties fight. So you know, you have this 553 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: app that's gone viral that's intentionally being use against the 554 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: American people using our own First Amendment against us. And 555 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: back to what you said about reigning in big tech 556 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: and really being a massive propaganda machine. I mean, you're 557 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,679 Speaker 1: absolutely right. When they looked at you know a lot 558 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: of people were saying, oh, the mid terms weren't as successful, 559 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,360 Speaker 1: why was it in there? You know, sideline quarterbacking. Everything 560 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: that happened one you had the maps aspects, so certain 561 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 1: states got obliterated by the activists attorneys that were set 562 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: up by some of these left leaning nonprofits to fight 563 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: on the constitutional redistricting. But then you had literally young 564 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: people gen z showed out and drugs outpaced baby boomers 565 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: and actually voted for these left wing politicians and Biden. 566 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: A lot of the reason was because it was what 567 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: they saw on their phones, and so what they saw 568 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: in these apps, whether it was Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, That targeting, 569 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: which can be done literally down to a science, is 570 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: what they're doing to young people. And so that's why 571 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: I tell people all the time. You know, especially some 572 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: of the older representatives. I'm saying you don't understand, but 573 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: you know your kids, your grandkids are on this, and 574 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: this is basically how we're getting all of our information. 575 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: We don't read the newspaper, we don't watch television, we 576 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: don't read the radio, or we don't listen to the radio. 577 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: This is one hundred percent of digital age. And so 578 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: getting them to understand that has been something that everyone's 579 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: starting to come on board with now and realize how 580 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: much of a threat it is. So what's top of 581 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: the agenda for you from now until the end of 582 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: the year. What are you focused in on? By the way, 583 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: just give you something easy to close us up here? 584 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: Do you just tell us you know what or to 585 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: close us out rather tell us you know what? Are 586 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: you trying to get done personally, professionally, anything, you just 587 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: you take it. Yeah. Number one is the debt ceiling, 588 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,479 Speaker 1: So we're working on that now. Number two would be 589 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: I actually just sponsored or I just wrote a bipartisan 590 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: bill that we got a few Democrats to co sponsor, 591 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: working with Republicans to actually prevent sexual assault in the military. 592 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: And so we think that that's actually going to pass 593 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: and it would do something this is so much common sense, 594 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: but it would actually require service member to do one 595 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: day out of the month during the time that they 596 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: would do pet combatives training for self defense and so 597 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: you'll be surprised to learn that not all branches do that. 598 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: You might if you're in the Marine Corps, but I 599 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: definitely did see in the Air Force and other branches 600 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: as well don't necessarily have that combatives training. So it's 601 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: it's multifaceted. It helps a service member both men and women, 602 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: but then it also too prepares permission readiness. And then 603 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 1: number three would be I'm trying to find a chocolate 604 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: Miran chicken because I obviously, as you might have seen 605 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: all my social media have chickens and they lay eggs, 606 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: and these chocolate Mirans have their chocolate covered eggs, and 607 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: they're hard to find, their considered designer chickens, and so 608 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm looking for one. Oh who WHOA. You can't just 609 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: you can't just like sprinkle this in at the end 610 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: and think that I'm just gonna let you. I know 611 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: you're busy, Rep. Luna, But first of all, you have chickens. 612 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: I did not know this. Second of all, your chickens 613 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: lay chocolate eggs. You gotta tell everyone, so every type. 614 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: So I have three chickens, but the different breeds of 615 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 1: chickens will lay different colored eggs. So right now, with 616 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: the chickens that I have. I have two Easter eggers, 617 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: one of which lays a bluish colored egg, and then 618 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: I have a black Rock, which lays a brown egg. 619 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: And then they have these breed of chickens called Chocolate 620 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: Moranes that lay a very dark like Hershey chocolate colored egg. 621 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: And so when you actually go and collect your eggs 622 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: in the morning, which we do every morning, we have 623 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: this great array, an assortment of eggs. It literally looks 624 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: like Easter eggs, Okay, like they're all different colors. And 625 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: so I've been looking for one of these chickens for 626 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: like six months, but they're so hard to find because 627 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: they're like a designer chicken now in the egg community, 628 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: and so I'm trying to find one. So if you know, 629 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: but let me know, by the way, this is probably 630 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: a great side hustle because if you were to just 631 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: like have Eddy your husband go out and sell eggs, 632 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: are like they're like one hundred dollars eats. They're like 633 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: Faberge eggs. Now they've gotten really expensive Arganic. Yeah, I'm 634 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: sure they're free range, are the See I've actually thought 635 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: about this now I'm still in apartment, but the wife 636 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: wants me to get a house, and we're talking. I've said, fine, honey, 637 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: because happy wife, happy life turns out very true. I 638 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: have found out by the keep her happy all the time. 639 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: So we're gonna get a house at some point, and 640 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: I would love, you know, with a yard and grass 641 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: and so then chickens would be a thing that we 642 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: could do. How much work are they? And then also 643 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: do you feel like the chickens? So I had a 644 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: pet bird for a little while growing up, and I 645 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: always tell people listen, it's like birds are weirdly smart 646 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: and when you spend time around them, they absolutely recognize 647 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: different people. They have people, they like, people they don't like, 648 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: they show affection whatever. But that was like a little 649 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: parrot based it was actually a cocateal. Do you like 650 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: do the birds? Do the chickens are? They're like, oh 651 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: what's up? Rep? Luna? Like good to see? Or does 652 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: it not matter? Do you know what I mean? No, 653 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: they have personalities for sure. They are actually surprisingly easy. 654 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: So I have a gravity feeder, which means I fell 655 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: at my feeder about once every three weeks, and then 656 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: they like literally will go down and so they're self sufficient. 657 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: I have an outdoor coop. I have a door on 658 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,719 Speaker 1: the coop that opens when the sun right and closes 659 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: when the sun sets, and they literally debug my garden. 660 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: I mean like they are the easiest things. And they 661 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: just rum around our front yard and our backyard because 662 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: we cut a little hole in the fence. So it's 663 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: funny because I'll see like my post office guy or 664 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,479 Speaker 1: the Amazon delivery people, and they're used to the chickens now, 665 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: but they can leave the gate open. They stay in 666 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: the front yard. They're literally the easiest thing. And then 667 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: we have a water feeder that basically feeds them themselves, 668 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: so they are the easiest things on earth. That's why 669 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: I tell people buy chickens, so much more easier to 670 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: get your eggs their organic, free range. And then also too, 671 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 1: I get a weird sense of pride when I go 672 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: to the grocery store and I see eggs are like 673 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: ten bucks and you can just go home and get 674 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: them from my chickens. I know what your answer is 675 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: going to be, but I just have to get you 676 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: on the record for this. If I gave you one 677 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: of your you know, blindfolded obviously right blindfold to tape, 678 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 1: if I gave you one of your chocolate blue or 679 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: whatever fancy eggs. And I just gave you, like an 680 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: egg that you'd get from one of those kind of 681 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: depressing styrofoam containers at a gas station somewhere. Could you 682 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: tell the difference? Yes? And this happened to me in Washington. 683 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: I was downstairs in the chow that's not a chowld, 684 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: the cafeteria of the Capital, and I went and gotten 685 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: about four hard boiled eggs, and I went up to 686 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,280 Speaker 1: my office to taste them, and they taste like absolute garbage. 687 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: Like I can tell the difference. The yolks are actually 688 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: a lot darker and the shells are actually a lot harder. 689 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: So whenever I go out now, I can actually tell them. 690 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: Like I don't even eat eggs when i'm out. I 691 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: just wait till i'm home. Wait, do you is dark 692 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: yolk better quality egg or lesser better quality? No, it's 693 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 1: better quality. Yeah, you'll actually see two. Like you can 694 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: tell what the chickens diet was. If they're free range 695 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: and they're eating literally as scavengers, which is what they're 696 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: supposed to do anyways, and they're not eating feed, they're 697 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: yolks will actually be darker our chickens literally ate everything though. 698 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: The lizards, they bugs. I feed them scraps from I 699 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: mean like they love cheese. I feed them scraps from 700 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: my salads. I mean they are just they're very well filled. 701 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: The chicken. They love watermelon. It's great. You do not 702 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: have a rooster, so you do not have the cockadoo 703 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: loo in the morning, right, that doesn't happen to correct, 704 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: But they are the one thing. No, yeah, I have 705 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: no roosters. They're fairly quiet. The one issue I am 706 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 1: having those they keep trying to eat my dog's dog food. 707 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 1: So they'll sneak in the back and then try to 708 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: get into some. I'm like, what do you guys do 709 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: they love his dog? They like they like his dog food. 710 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: Fair enough. Interesting, I gotta tell the wife brothers, we 711 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: gotta get some chickens. Representative Luna Anna paulina Um always 712 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 1: great to have you.

So 716 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 1: come back and talk to us for it, all right, 717 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: that's thanks. Fun
