They're not vetting them, and it's leading to 19 00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 4: what we saw just this week, terrorists being released in 20 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 4: to this country who are preparing to commit major terrorist attack. 21 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 3: We're going to address that as well. 22 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 4: And finally, we're going to talk about what's going to 23 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 4: happen with Hunter Biden, and in particular, Joe Biden has 24 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 4: said that he will not pardon his son, but he 25 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 4: has not committed that he will not commute the sentence. 26 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 4: We're going to talk about what is likely what Biden 27 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 4: is likely to do about his son, and we're going 28 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 4: to get into that. 29 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: I want to do it. 30 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 2: I want to do a vertical live from Vegas just 31 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 2: so we can get some good odds on that one centaer. 32 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 2: I think we can make some serious cash off of 33 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 2: those promises coming from the White House.

Centaer, this 77 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 2: was a very interesting moment on Capitol Hill. Donald Trump 78 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,559 Speaker 2: came and met with a lot of the Republican leadership. 79 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: A lot of your colleagues were there, and the initial 80 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: reports that came out were saying it was a lot 81 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: of enthusiasm and a lot of excitement from the Republican 82 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 2: leaders that were there. You were in the room, tell 83 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 2: us what was happening. 84 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 3: So I was. 85 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 5: So. 86 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 3: Trump began the day by meeting with the House Republicans. 87 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 3: I was not in that meeting. 88 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 4: Some of the reports of that as that was a 89 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 4: little bit wild and wooly, that got into all sorts 90 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 4: of topics. But Trump came by the Senate to have 91 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 4: lunch with us, and so we met at the National 92 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 4: Republican Senatorial Committee which is like three blocks away from 93 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 4: the Capitol, and Trump joined us for the lunch and 94 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 4: it started. We're all sitting sitting in a room. It 95 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 4: started with him talking for about oh, twenty twenty five minutes, 96 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 4: and then we did a whole series of Q and 97 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 4: A where probably about a dozen of us asked him 98 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 4: questions and he commented on those. And then we went 99 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 4: out and we did a press conference where we stood 100 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: we all stood behind him, and he stood up and 101 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 4: gave the press conference and listen, I gotta say the 102 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 4: biggest thing about the lunch that struck me was the 103 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 4: unity in the room. Look, the media likes to talk 104 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 4: about divisions and the Republican Party, and there are certainly some, 105 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 4: but today I didn't see any of that. 106 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 3: Today. 107 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 4: Everyone in the room was focused on winning in November 108 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 4: and turning the country around. And Trump was in great spirits. 109 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 6: You know. 110 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 4: One of the things I asked him after the meeting, 111 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 4: I came up and spent a couple of minutes talking 112 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 4: with him. I just asked, how are you doing? I mean, 113 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 4: it's been this BS you're dealing with with these New 114 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 4: York convictions, their utter garbage. But listen, it's not fun 115 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 4: to be convicted of felonies. I mean, it's been he's 116 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 4: been through hell, and so just as a personal level, 117 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 4: I was asking him how he was doing, and he 118 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 4: said he was doing fine, and it seemed real and genuine. 119 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 4: I mean, he was not He was not down in 120 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 4: the dumps. He was not discouraged. In fact, was he 121 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 4: was really in good spirits. He was optimistic. And his 122 00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 4: message to everyone is listen, let's stand togetherize several things. 123 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 4: Number one, he emphasize the border, that we've got to 124 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 4: secure the border, that it is insane that we have 125 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 4: open borders, that it's an invitation to terrorists. 126 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 3: And he's exactly right. 127 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 4: If and when Trump wins, we will secure the border 128 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 4: in the first month or two of the next Trump administration. 129 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 4: And I can say that because we know how to 130 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 4: do it. We did it before, and we'll do it again. 131 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 4: He also talked a lot about inflation and energy in particular, 132 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 4: and he pointed out quite rightly that energy is foundational 133 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 4: to inflation. One of the reasons that prices have gone 134 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 4: up on just about everything is that energy prices of 135 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 4: skyrocketed because the Biden administration has been waging war on 136 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 4: American energy and we are an energy powerhouse where the 137 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 4: number one producer of oil in the world, where the 138 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 4: number one producer of natural gas in the world, and 139 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 4: the Biden administration is doing everything they can to stifle that. 140 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 4: And Trump was very clear that we're going to reverse that. 141 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 4: We will reverse that fast early next year, and that's 142 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 4: going to have a real impact on energy prices and 143 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 4: inflation across the board. We also talked about national security 144 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 4: and in particular how insane it is that the Biden 145 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 4: administration has flowed one hundred billion dollars to Iran and 146 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 4: if and when Trump wins, that's going to end as well. 147 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 2: You mentioned a moment ago that there seemed to be 148 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: unity in the room. That's incredibly important for getting legislation passed. Yes, 149 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: and you need that, and we didn't have that type 150 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 2: of unity. I would argue last time in twenty sixteen, 151 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: early on, there was some splinters. There was somede divisiveness 152 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: in the House that Senate side. What you seem to 153 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: be describing this time is if Donald Trump is elected 154 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 2: and Republicans have control of the House Senate, it's game 155 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 2: on from the from January tecond there's not going to 156 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 2: be you know, let's get to know each other time 157 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: and have some meetings and maybe come over the White 158 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 2: House like there's an agenda and it's ready to go 159 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: for the American people. 160 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think that that's exactly right. 161 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 4: And let me put it in broader context, which is, 162 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 4: yesterday the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, came and 163 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 4: had lunch with all the Republican senators. And by the way, 164 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 4: that almost never happens. When Paul Ryan was speaker, he 165 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 4: didn't do that. When John Bayner was Speaker, he didn't 166 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 4: do that. When Kevin McCarthy was speaker, he didn't do that. 167 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 4: Mike Johnson has done that this multiple times. This is 168 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 4: either the third or fourth time he's come and had 169 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 4: lunch with all the Senate Republicans. 170 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 3: I think that's great. He was talking at lunch yesterday. 171 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 4: He said, you know, it's amazing that the media treats 172 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 4: it as a news story that the House and senator 173 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 4: talking to each other. And the reason he came over 174 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 4: and talked to us is is he said he's focused 175 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 4: on his end, very much on developing the agenda and 176 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 4: the plans to hit the ground running if and when 177 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 4: we win in November, if we come in to January 178 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 4: of next year with a Republican president, Republican Senate, Republican House. 179 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 4: We got an enormous amount to accomplish. And the Speaker, 180 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 4: to his credit, is very focused on the first one 181 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 4: hundred days. What can we accomplish, what can we do 182 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 4: to change the path of the country. I encouraged him 183 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 4: to dig in on that. In fact, I shared with 184 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 4: a speaker and with everyone else in the room. You know, 185 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 4: a lot of the senators that are there now were 186 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 4: not there back in twenty seventeen when Trump first became president. 187 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 4: You Know, the Speaker said, look, when Trump first became president, 188 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 4: he was a freshman, he was brand new in the Congress, 189 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 4: and he was amazed that the Congress was not prepared 190 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 4: with a legislative agenda from day one. And he pointed 191 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 4: out that he thought a lot of Republicans were surprised 192 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 4: that Trump won. They were expecting Hillary to win, and 193 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 4: so when the administration came in, they weren't ready for primetime. 194 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 3: They didn't know what to do. 195 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 4: In this instance, I'm very glad the Speaker is trying 196 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 4: to think proactively. And I described I described something that 197 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 4: I did back in the summer of twenty eighteen. So 198 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 4: summer of twenty eighteen, we did a lunch with all 199 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 4: the Senate Republicans and I prepared a PowerPoint. It was 200 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 4: about fifty pages long, and I spoke to my colleagues 201 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 4: probably the better part of an hour. And the title 202 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 4: of the PowerPoint was carpe dim And what I did 203 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 4: in the PowerPoint is I looked in the past, in 204 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 4: previous instances when one party controlled the White House, the House, 205 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 4: and the Senate. It happens pretty rarely. When the Democrats 206 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 4: do it, they fundamentally transformed the country. So in the 207 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 4: last century, the first time they did it, they passed 208 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 4: the New Deal. The second time they did it, they 209 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 4: passed the Great Society. The third time they did it, 210 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 4: they passed Obamacare and Dodd Frank. And now for the 211 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 4: last two years we've seen they've spent us into an 212 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 4: absolute inflation and recession home. And on the other hand, Republicans, 213 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 4: when we have unified control, we tend to do small 214 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 4: and piddling things. So what I argued in the PowerPoint is, 215 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 4: at the time I presented it was August of twenty eighteen, 216 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 4: I said, listen, any rational political observer recognizes that there's 217 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 4: a very real chance that we will lose at least 218 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 4: one House of Congress in November. And I said to 219 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 4: my colleagues, particularly the guys who were the sophomores, who 220 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 4: were the people who had been elected two years earlier, 221 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 4: and I said, look for you, guys, we have one 222 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 4: hundred and eighty three days till the next Congress. 223 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 3: For many of you. 224 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 4: If we do not pass things now, you will never 225 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 4: again have another chance to pass anything into law. And 226 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 4: so I put together a spreadsheet. It was about fifty 227 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 4: different bills. All of the bills had been written by 228 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 4: different Republican senators. Some I had written, but most of 229 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 4: them were my colleagues. And all of the bills were 230 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 4: bills that had a reasonable prospect of garnering fifty one votes. 231 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 4: They weren't fringe things that would get ten or twelve votes. 232 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 4: They were all things that would easily get forty five 233 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 4: Republicans and that had a real shot at getting fifty. 234 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 4: And what I argued is, I said, listen, this is 235 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 4: going to sound radical to you, Ben, we should do something, 236 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 4: We should not do nothing. Amazingly enough, that argument proved unpersuasive. 237 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 4: Mitch McConnell said well, so the principal avenue that if 238 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 4: you look, the biggest legislative victory of the Trump years 239 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 4: was the twenty seventeen tax cuts. We passed that using 240 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 4: what's called budget reconciliation. Budget reconciliation is a process under 241 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 4: a bill called the Budget Acted nineteen seventy five. The 242 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 4: budget p is not terribly consequential. What's consequential is, under 243 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 4: the terms of the statute, you have an up down 244 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 4: vote at fifty votes and it can't be filibustered. So 245 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 4: it's one of the most important exceptions to the filibuster 246 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 4: we could have. If you look at the Democrats, they 247 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 4: did three budget reconciliations. It's how they passed almost all 248 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 4: of their agenda that put us in this hole. When 249 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 4: the Republicans had the majority, we did only one budget reconciliation. 250 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 4: We did not do a single one in twenty eighteen, which, frankly, 251 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,599 Speaker 4: ben is indefensible. And so I made the case of 252 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 4: the Speaker and my colleagues, let's not make that mistake again. 253 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 3: Let's hit the ground running. 254 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: This seems different. 255 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: And even when I say different, there's also a lot 256 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: of people behind the scenes that are working on putting 257 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 2: together a Trump administration and a government and learning from 258 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 2: the mistakes that happened in twenty sixteen. 259 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: How encouraged are you by that? 260 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I've had quite a few people I know 261 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,719 Speaker 2: that that I've talked to in many different areas of 262 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 2: government who are saying, this just feels different. 263 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: This time. We learned from our mistakes in sixteen. 264 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: We learn from our inaction and people that we should 265 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 2: have replaced and changed with conservative minds, and we've witnessed 266 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: what happens when you do that. But this time it's 267 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 2: going to be different. That may be the thing I'm 268 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 2: the most excited about is if we had, like you mentioned, 269 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: a House and Senate ready to go, but also many 270 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 2: of the bureaucrats that have been changed out very quickly 271 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 2: this time. 272 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: That seems to be the plan. 273 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 3: Well. 274 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 4: In twenty sixteen, I think Trump's winning surprised a lot 275 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 4: of people. It surprised a lot of Republicans in the Senate, 276 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 4: it surprised a lot of Republicans in the House. It 277 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 4: frankly surprised the Trump campaign team, and I think it 278 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 4: actually surprised Trump himself. On election Day, I think they 279 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 4: were all a little bit startled that they had won 280 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 4: and suddenly, holdly, cow, we're going to go do this now. 281 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 4: And and so it resulted in when the administration came 282 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 4: in in the beginning of twenty seventeen, in Congress, Republican 283 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 4: leadership of the House and Senate was not prepared with 284 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 4: an agenda because they had assumed Hillary was going to 285 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 4: win and they didn't need one, and the White House 286 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 4: did not have the experience to know how to drive 287 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 4: an agenda. There was no first one hundred Days mission. 288 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 4: And you're right, there's a whole series of nonprofits that 289 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 4: are engaged in laying out specific plans for executive orders, 290 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 4: for regulations, for legislation, and whether it is the America 291 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 4: First Policy Institute or the Heritage Foundation or others. I 292 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 4: think if and when Trump wins this November, we will 293 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:49,119 Speaker 4: hit January with a much much better level of preparation 294 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 4: to make a lasting difference immediately. 295 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, you mentioned the border, and I want to talk 296 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 2: more about that in a moment, But first I want 297 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 2: to talk to you real quick. If you're a guy 298 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: and you're like me, and you've gotten a little bit 299 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 2: older and you feel like you've lost that edge, you 300 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 2: don't have the energy you used to have fatigue sits 301 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 2: in quickly. Now you want to be active, you want 302 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 2: to work out, but it's just not like it used 303 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 2: to be. 304 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: Well, the problem is very clear. 305 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: It's men's testosterum levels are off a cliff historically at 306 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 2: an all time low. And that's the problem that so 307 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 2: many guys as they end up getting to their forties 308 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 2: and above, end up having that major drop in testosterum. Well, thankfully, 309 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 2: the patriots at Chalk Choq are helping real American men 310 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: take back their right to proudly maximize their masculinity by 311 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 2: boosting testosterum levels up to twenty percent over ninety days. 312 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: Now. 313 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 2: I've been taking Chalk's Male Vitality Stack for over a year. 314 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: Now here's the best part.

You guys talked about that. It's 332 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 2: something that really I think catapulted Trump to get the 333 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 2: presidency in sixteen when he talked about building the damn wall, 334 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 2: and it clicked with a lot of Americans. Now the President, 335 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: Joe Biden the other day tried to help Mary and said, 336 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 2: all right, I'm gonna do some executive action here on 337 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 2: the southern border. But a new poll reveals that Biden's 338 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 2: border security move fails to set up five voters. As 339 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 2: the crisis continues. In other words, the American people are saying, 340 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 2: we're not taking the bait this time. We are seeing 341 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 2: your executive order is pretty much worthless. It is not 342 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 2: shutting down illegal crossings at the southern border. This on 343 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 2: top of the fact that we have now people that 344 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 2: are on the Terrace watch list and those connected isis 345 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: K that crossed the southern border and got into this 346 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 2: country that way, and then they let him go, and 347 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: so now they've been arrested the last week, and then 348 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 2: we got another warning center this week about we're not 349 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,479 Speaker 2: doing a good enough job betting the people that are 350 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: coming across that we are catching. 351 00:18:54,320 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 4: Well, that's exactly right. And listen, I think Democrats believe 352 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 4: that the American people, the voters, are stupid and that 353 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 4: they're easily deceived by an announcement that Biden's got an 354 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 4: executive order to secure the border good, the problems fixed. 355 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 4: I don't think the voters are stupid. I think they've 356 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 4: got an enormous amount of common sense. And at this point, 357 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 4: anyone who's paying attention even a tiny bit knows that 358 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 4: this invasion at our southern border is deliberate. It's what 359 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 4: the Democrats want, It's what Joe Biden wants, it's what's 360 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 4: Kamala Harris wants, it's what every Democrat in the Senate, 361 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 4: in the House wants. I think people get that, and 362 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 4: that's one of the challenges the Biden campaigns trying to 363 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 4: deceive them and saying no, no, no, no, it's not Biden. 364 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 4: He's trying to fix it. I don't think people are 365 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 4: going to buy that. But as you noted, just an 366 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 4: additional piece of evidence that's really quite compelling and quite 367 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 4: concerning is that there's a brand new report that came 368 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 4: out this week from the Inspector General of the Department 369 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 4: of Homeland Security, and the DHS Inspector General concludes number one, 370 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 4: that DHS has not been a effectively screening non citizens 371 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 4: and asylum seekers. Number two that CBP can't access all 372 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 4: federal data to complete thorough screening and vetting. And number three, 373 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 4: the DHS Inspector General in the Biden administration concluded as 374 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 4: following quote, DHS will remain at risk of admitting dangerous 375 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 4: persons into the country or enabling asylum seekers who may 376 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 4: post significant threats to public safety and national security to 377 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 4: continue to reside in the United States end quote until 378 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 4: these challenges are addressed. This is a bombshell report from 379 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 4: the Inspector General and so of course the corporate media 380 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 4: is ignoring it altogether. 381 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 2: You look at this, there's so many warnings, and we've 382 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 2: seen the FBI give their warnings that the director there 383 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 2: has given his warnings and he says that it is 384 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 2: a very concerning and real national security threat of the 385 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 2: open southern border. You then put this combined with ISIS 386 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 2: and what you just talked about, and you have to 387 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 2: ask yourself the question who is to blame for being 388 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 2: asleep at the wheel here or is it just Democrats say, Look, 389 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 2: we're willing to sacrifice some Americans, some of you are 390 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 2: going to die in a terrorist attack one day, but 391 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 2: we got in twenty million illegal immigrants and. 392 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: That was worth it for us. 393 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 2: How do you look at this subject now knowing these 394 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 2: warnings are coming now from people I think inside of 395 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 2: our government under Biden, who are trying to cover the 396 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 2: rear ends. 397 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 4: Well, Listen in terms of Washington Democrats, the Democrats in 398 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 4: the Senate of the House, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris 399 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 4: and the executive branch ben To be honest, I don't 400 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 4: think they give a damn. I have seen no evidence. 401 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: That's my worry. 402 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 2: It's like it's almost like it's, well, it's the price 403 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 2: that we're willing to pay. We're willing to sacrifice safety, security, 404 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 2: and in reality, if you compare it to what isis 405 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 2: K did in Russia, American lives to get what we 406 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 2: ultimately what we want, which is a new voting block. 407 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 4: Look, I think the Democrats right now in Congress are 408 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 4: incredibly cynical and the only thing they're focused on is 409 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 4: what will keep them in power, what will ensure that 410 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 4: they're more and more and more and more Democrat voters. 411 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 4: And I think they look at the eleven million people 412 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 4: they've allowed into this country illegally and they view them 413 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 4: all as future Democrat voters. Now, some of them, I 414 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 4: think they are counting on voting illegally this election, and 415 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 4: the rest of them, I think they're counting on voting 416 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 4: legally once a Democrat administration gets into office and grants 417 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 4: them amnesty. And so I think from their view, they 418 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 4: are fundamentally remaking the demographics of this country and they're 419 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 4: trying to remake it in a way that ensures that 420 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 4: Democrats remain in power forever. And the thing that is 421 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 4: tragic is they're more than happy. The Democrats are more 422 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 4: than happy to look the other way if the people die, 423 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 4: at the people dying crossing the border day after day 424 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 4: after day, the migrants dying, They're perfectly happy to look 425 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 4: the other way. At the children being brutalized. They're perfectly 426 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 4: happy to look the other way at the women being 427 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 4: repeatedly sexually assaulted. They're perfectly happy to look away at 428 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 4: all of the victims of crime we've seen all across 429 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 4: the country from illegal aliens that the Biden administration is released, 430 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 4: and most inexplicably, they have to date been perfectly happy 431 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 4: to look the other way at the growing and deeply 432 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 4: troubling risk of a major terrorist attack in the United 433 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 4: States from illegal aliens that the Biden administration is released 434 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 4: among us. 435 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 2: During your time serving in the Senate, have you ever 436 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 2: seen this many warnings on a national security issue? Now 437 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 2: come before you, guys publicly, because it's not just like 438 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 2: one person as a whistleblower. You're talking about the head 439 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 2: of the FBI, You're now talking about the DHA Inspector General. 440 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 2: You're talking about others with a Department of Home and Security, 441 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,880 Speaker 2: border patrol agents, the Border Union. I mean, they're all 442 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 2: singing now the same tune. Which is we're sitting on 443 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 2: a time bomb. 444 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 4: Well, I think the facts have gotten so overwhelming that 445 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 4: they had no choice. If you look at Christopher Ray, 446 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 4: who is the head of the FBI, he has testified 447 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 4: now repeatedly in front of Congress, and he said there 448 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 4: is an enormous risk of a terrorist attack in the 449 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 4: United States. It is from our southern border. We are 450 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 4: all vulnerable, and we've got to step up and fight 451 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 4: back on this. As you know, I know Chris Ray 452 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 4: very very well. We both clerked for the same Court 453 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 4: of Appeals judge. I've known Chris Ray for thirty years. 454 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 4: I think he's a good man. Interestingly enough, he's not 455 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 4: a Democrat. I think he fully considers himself a Republican. 456 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 4: And my fault with Chris Ray, which I've articulated multiple times, 457 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 4: is that I think he's a company man. I think 458 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:03,959 Speaker 4: his view of his job as the FBI director is 459 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 4: to defend the career employees at the FBI, to circle 460 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 4: the wagons around the senior leadership. And that might in 461 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 4: an ordinary circumstance make sense, but it doesn't make sense 462 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 4: here when you have hardcore partisans who have burrowed into 463 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 4: senior leadership. Positions and who are corrupting the integrity of 464 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 4: the FBI. That being said, Chris Ray keeps going to 465 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 4: Congress and saying people, the risk of a terrorist attack 466 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 4: is enormous. He's trying to ring the bell because he's 467 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 4: looking at the intel. Look, let me read you from 468 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 4: just the opening page of the report from the Inspector 469 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 4: General at the Department Homeland Security. It says, quote what 470 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 4: we found the Department of Homeland Securities technology procedures and coordination, 471 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 4: we're not fully effective to screen and vet non citizens 472 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: applying for admission into the United States or asylum seekers 473 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 4: whose asylum applications were pending for an extended period. Although 474 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 4: US Customs and Border Protection deployed new technologies to enhance 475 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 4: traveler screening, it could not access all federal data necessary 476 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 4: to ensure complete screening and vetting of non citizens seeking 477 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 4: admission to the United States. In addition, CBP used varied 478 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 4: and sometimes inconsistent inspection procedures for travelers arriving in vehicles 479 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,239 Speaker 4: at land ports of entry. Finally, CBP does not have 480 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 4: the technology to perform biometric matching on travelers arriving in 481 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 4: vehicles at land ports of entry. Once a non citizen 482 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 4: files an asylum application. US Citizenship and Immigration Services conducts 483 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 4: screening and vetting to verify each asylum applicants' identity and 484 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 4: determine their ability. However, USCIS did not always complete timely 485 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 4: screenings for more than four hundred thousand affirmative asylum app 486 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 4: applicants who filed for asylum between October twenty seventeen and 487 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 4: March twenty twenty three, four hundred thousand. Additionally, USCIS does 488 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 4: not have a dedicated procedure or comprehensive technology solution to 489 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 4: perform interim screening of asylum applicants whose cases were not 490 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 4: adjudicated within the required one hundred and eighty day timeframe. 491 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: So you look at all of that, and it reminds 492 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 2: me so much of nine to eleven, when we found 493 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 2: out afterwards, Yes, everybody wasn't talking to each other, the 494 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 2: FBI and the CIA weren't talking to another, and so 495 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 2: things were falling through the cracks. Except this time they're 496 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 2: all saying, are falling through the cracks before the attack, 497 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 2: not after. Is there any chance that we can get 498 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: this together quickly enough to fix it before it's too eight? 499 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 2: Or is this just now an administration's decision of hey, 500 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 2: we know what we're doing here, we know the risk, 501 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 2: and we're okay with it. 502 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 4: I think there's no chance with this administration. Look look 503 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 4: Joe Biden. It is terrifying. Joe Biden is utterly absent. 504 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 4: He is not competent to do the job. 505 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 3: He's in. 506 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 4: Kamala Harris is a dumpster fire. Alejandro Majorcas is brazenly 507 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 4: defying the law and is in fact presiding over the 508 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 4: criminal invasion of this country. Merrick Garland is so politicized 509 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 4: the Department of Justice is not going to do anything. 510 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 4: I do not believe these individuals will change their behavior. 511 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 4: They've made the devil's bargain that they will destroy our 512 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 4: country in order to let enough illegal immigrants into this 513 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 4: country to ensure they stay in power. And so I 514 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 4: think the only only only answer is for Republicans to 515 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 4: win in November, for Trump to win reelection, and for 516 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 4: us to win the Senate in the House. 517 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: This June marks two years since the overturn of Roe v. Wade. 518 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 2: But did you know that the number of abortions actually 519 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 2: increase the following year. In twenty twenty three, the amount 520 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 2: of abortions reach its highest level since twenty twelve, with 521 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 2: the abortion pill accounting for up to sixty three percent 522 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 2: of all abortions. It's tragically no surprise. Well, there is 523 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 2: one organization that is helping women choose life, and Preborn 524 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 2: continues to stand strong for women in crisis and at 525 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 2: risk babies. Preborn is a ministry of compassion that showers 526 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 2: women and babies with God's love, providing free ultrasounds to 527 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 2: mothers with unplanned pregnancies to introduce them to the precious 528 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 2: life growing inside of them. When a mother meets her 529 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 2: baby on ultrasound and here's their heartbeat, she is twice 530 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 2: as likely to choose life. 531 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: Let me say that again. 532 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 2: When a mother meets her baby on ultrasound and here's 533 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 2: her baby's heartbeat, she is twice as likely to choose life. 534 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 2: Twenty eight dollars sponsors one ultrasound, and that's where you 535 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 2: come in, and one and forty dollars can actually help 536 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 2: to rescue five babies.

Senator, 545 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: a moment ago you mentioned the President, you said you 546 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 2: think he is at this point clearly incompetent. He is 547 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 2: a guy that is his own just department said he 548 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 2: couldn't stand trial. He thinks he would be incompetence trial. 549 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 2: We've seen several videos come out over the last couple 550 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 2: of days of the President looking clearly like he's lost 551 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 2: at events, not knowing what's going on, and slurring his words. 552 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 2: But there does seem to be one issue that he's 553 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: still very much honed in on, and that is the 554 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 2: number one issue of taken care of his son, Hunter Biden. 555 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 2: Joe Biden has claimed he's not going to give a 556 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 2: pardon to his son, but we also know that Joe 557 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 2: Biden in the White House is very much getting the 558 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 2: idea out there. So people will, I guess, be okay 559 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: with it that he may commute his son Hunter sentence. 560 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 2: The question is will be smart enough to do this 561 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 2: after election day? And is it even a bigger possibility 562 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 2: that he may just be flat out lying and he's 563 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 2: going to just straight up pardon him. 564 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 4: Well, look, the odds are significant. I believe that Joe 565 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 4: Biden pardons his son, and I think it all hinges 566 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 4: on what happens in November. I think if Joe Biden loses, 567 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 4: then he will pardon Hunter. In November December, he will 568 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 4: pardon Hunter before leaving. If Joe Biden wins, it gets 569 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 4: more complicated. I think he will want a pardon Hunter. 570 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 4: But if he's starting a second term and he's got 571 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 4: four years to go, I think his political team will 572 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 4: be terrified that pardoning Hunter, especially after you promised the 573 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 4: American people you would not, would do irreparable damage to him. 574 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 4: And so what I think is likely is if he wins, 575 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 4: instead of pardoning Hunter, that he will commute the sentence. 576 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 4: Commuting the sentence basically says, Okay, no more jail time 577 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 4: for you. 578 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 3: You can go. 579 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 4: You're still a felon, You're still a convicted felon, you 580 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 4: still have many of the detriments of being a felon, 581 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 4: but you're wearing a bulletproof vest, so it is at 582 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 4: least much much harder to kill you. I think the 583 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 4: two options are Biden loses, he pardons Hunter. Biden wins, 584 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 4: he commutes Hunter's sentence and lets him go from jail. 585 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 2: You look at the White House, and what you said 586 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 2: would directly contradict what the White House has said. The 587 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 2: White House Press Secretary Jean Pierre saying this second one 588 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 2: with a cousin. 589 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: Pardon or commute his son if he's convicted. So I've 590 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: answered this question before. 591 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 5: It was asked of me not too long ago, a 592 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago, and I was very clear and 593 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 5: I said no. 594 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 2: I mean she didn't just say pardon. She also said 595 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 2: commute the sentence. The president will not do it. No, 596 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 2: And I guess that's a smart political answer going into 597 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 2: November and then after you win, who cares? 598 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: Right you? 599 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 2: Why to the American people on quote having a secure 600 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 2: border when they know they're what you're lying to. You'll 601 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 2: look at him in the face. You tell him Bidnomics 602 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 2: is working with every American turning. You tell people the 603 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 2: economy is strong and great right now, when it's clearly not. 604 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,359 Speaker 2: I mean, these are the lies that they tell every 605 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 2: single day, so why not lie on this one? 606 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 4: Well and listen, Kareeine Jean Pierre does that every day. 607 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 4: We have detailed at great lengths the deliberate lies she 608 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 4: has told for the White House Briefing room. The one 609 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 4: that is still the most galling is when she stood 610 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 4: up there and said, you know, people are not just 611 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 4: walking across our border. That's not happening, and that is 612 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 4: such a brazen lie. You'll recall on this podcast. I 613 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 4: invited to take Kareeine down to the border any day 614 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 4: of the week and we would go out on patrol 615 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 4: and we would find illegals crossing day after day after day. 616 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 4: That's how we got to eleven million illegals. She did 617 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 4: not take me up on that invitation, but I will 618 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 4: tell you multiple times over the last two years she's 619 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 4: gotten in arguments with this podcast, with points you and 620 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 4: I have made on the podcast that she's been forced 621 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 4: to stand up at the White House Press briefing and defense. 622 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 4: And actually one of our good friends, Kaylie Mcanany on Fox, 623 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 4: has put together a compilation of Kareem John Pierre's repeated 624 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,320 Speaker 4: flip flops and repeated lies. 625 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 7: Take a listen, Hunter Biden, I want you to watch 626 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 7: this closely because I'm very confused. Kareem John Pierre was 627 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:24,280 Speaker 7: asked her Eagagle yesterday if President Biden would commute Tunner sentence. 628 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 7: We know he said he would impart him. Would he 629 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 7: commute it? She answered very differently than she did on 630 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 7: September fifteenth, twenty twenty three. Watched the two answers. 631 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 5: What I'm saying is that the President I am not 632 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 5: spoken to the President about this, And what I'm saying 633 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 5: is he was asked about a pardon, he was asked 634 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 5: about he was asked about the trial specifically, and he 635 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 5: answered it very clearly, very forthright. As we know the sentence. 636 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,919 Speaker 5: He hasn't even been scheduled yet. I don't have anything beyond. 637 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 4: What the President said. He spent very clear about this. 638 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 8: Checond one with the president or commute his son if 639 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 8: he's convicted. 640 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: I've answered this question before. 641 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 5: It was asked of me not too long ago, a 642 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago, and I was very clear and 643 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 5: I said. 644 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 7: No, that's confusing. 645 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: That's a change. Yes it is. 646 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 8: I think she's clearly leaving the door open for America 647 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 8: to accept, frankly, a commutation inevitably, which who would be 648 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 8: surprised given the person at the helm. You were making 649 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 8: some great points of it, Hunter, I want to just 650 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 8: give you some space to make them too. 651 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 6: I just think that their real risk here is that 652 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 6: he is a vulnerability if he were to be facing 653 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 6: jail and flip and I know that's people. Oh my god, 654 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 6: he'd never flip me. If you read the text messages 655 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 6: and some of the stuff that's in evidence already in 656 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 6: the cases he's facing. There's no love loss between Hunter 657 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 6: and some of the members of the Biden family. Let's 658 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 6: just put it this way. He's not on the same 659 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 6: page with Jill. He's got issues with the uncle. I 660 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 6: think the uncle is actually the one that's the most vulnerable, 661 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 6: particularly in the area of the Chinese money. They can't 662 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 6: afford to have him turn hostile. And that's why once 663 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 6: his legal troubles conquered, all of a sudden, he's at 664 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 6: the White House, he's on the plane he's going to do, 665 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 6: you know, with on trips with Joe Biden, keeping. 666 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: Him close by the way. 667 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 2: One thing there that I do want to ask your 668 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 2: opinion of, there was some criticism of Joe Biden flying 669 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 2: back and forth to the trial. They were holding hands, 670 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 2: walking in and out of the courtroom, and coming back 671 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 2: from overseas to make appearances. 672 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 1: The point that was made there about. 673 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 2: The liability, like, hey, we got to keep him close 674 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 2: because if we're not sure he could even handle Jawn. 675 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 2: If he did, then what could happen to the other 676 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 2: family members. It's a very interesting perspective and point, especially 677 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,919 Speaker 2: if you go back and read some of the things 678 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,720 Speaker 2: that he has said and written in his own words. 679 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I got to say I don't actually agree with 680 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 4: the criticism of Joe Biden on this. She's his mom. 681 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 4: Her son is facing multiple felony counts. He's now been 682 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 4: convicted of multiple felonies. Her son has had a very 683 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 4: troubled life, has had enormous substance abuse problems. I am 684 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 4: never going to faul to a mom for loving her son, 685 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 4: and so the fact that she came back to be 686 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 4: with him in the trial, Look, that's part of being 687 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 4: a mom. 688 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: Fair point, Senator.
