If you've been to 18 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: d C, just down from Ford's Theater, just down from 19 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: the Arena, right in the center of Northwest Washington, d C. 20 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: Just a couple of blocks away from the Capitol, just 21 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: a couple of blocks away from the White House. In fact, 22 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: this morning I went up to Capitol Hill because I 23 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: have got my oldest son doing an internship, which is 24 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: the primary reason why I said, hey, let's go to 25 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: DC for a couple of weeks. So he is up 26 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: on Capitol Hill learning how the government works, and Dad 27 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 1: is in charge of him. Buck is stuck somewhere on 28 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: a tarmac, as many of you are aware, at thunderstorm season, 29 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: the worst time to be trying to travel anywhere. He 30 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: will be back with me tomorrow here in our DC studios, 31 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: and let me give you a little bit of roadmap 32 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: of where we're headed before I dive into this chaos 33 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles and why I think it's so significant. 34 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: Marcia Blackburn and Tommy Tuberville, two senators, are going to 35 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: be with us in studio here in the third hour, 36 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: so you can put that on the horizon. We will 37 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: also be joined by Riley Gaines here at the bottom 38 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: of the hour. She works at out Kick alongside of me. 39 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: She is fabulous and out of nowhere. Olympic gymnast Simone 40 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: Biles ripped her for being two outspoken on keeping men 41 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: out of women's sports, and so Riley is going to 42 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,919 Speaker 1: respond here on the show to that, So that will 43 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: be at the bottom of the hour. You guys can 44 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: be prepared for that. But I wanted to say, first 45 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: of all, hope you guys had fabulous weekends and we 46 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: are going to have like you can tell as I 47 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: just laid out a super pac show here on the 48 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: Monday edition of the program. But many of you, alongside 49 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: of certainly me, we're watching last night as unfortunately, we 50 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: had what felt like an echo of the summer of 51 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty emerging in Los Angeles. We had police cruisers 52 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: on fire. We had rocks and other projectiles being hurled 53 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: at police officers. We had five different Waymo vehicles. You 54 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: may remember I came on talking about how much I 55 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: loved riding in these autonomous vehicles waymos that have taken 56 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: over much of the travel in San Francisco, in La Phoenix. 57 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: I think a lot of you out there would be 58 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: riding in them as well. They're spreading across the country 59 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: very quickly. I had my oldest son with me in 60 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: San Francisco. He was super excited to ride in one. 61 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 1: I loved it. They were on fire in Los Angeles 62 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: and the cars were being graffited. People were waving the 63 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: flags of Mexico and other countries as they rioted against Ice. 64 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: And here's what I think is going on. I think 65 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: if you went back and maybe we'll talk about this 66 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: with President Trump Thursday in the Oval Office, I think 67 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: one of the things that Trump would say that he 68 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: learned in his first term in office was when violent 69 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: protests begin, you have to nip them in the bud immediately. 70 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: You cannot allow them to grow and spread and then 71 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: fester across the entire nation. And if you remember, in 72 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: the summer of twenty twenty, Tim Walls was the governor 73 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: of Minnesota responding to George Floyd. There is one hundred 74 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: percent should be one hundred percent openness for protest in 75 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: the United States. We should not ever allow violent protest. 76 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: And if you violently protest, whether you're a Democrat, Republican, independent, 77 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: whether you're a citizen or a non citizen, you should 78 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: be arrested and prosecuted I think to the full extent 79 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: of law. And we've been pretty consistent about that. Now. 80 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that you, as we saw in January sixth, 81 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, 82 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: and everybody else who was involved in the BLM protest 83 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: when they were trying to basically knock the fences down 84 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: at the White House, if you remember that well, when 85 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: they were attacking police like crazy. You should have no 86 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: charges brought based on the politics there, and every charge 87 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: brought based on the politics of January sixth. But if 88 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: you are going to charge everyone, regardless of political backgrounds 89 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: to the utmost stability for violence, I'm in favor of it. 90 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: I've been in favor of it my entire life, while 91 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: also being one hundred percent a First Amendment guy. I'm 92 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: banned from CNN as many if you remember, for saying 93 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: the only two things that have never let me down 94 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: are the First Amendment and boobs in a eight year 95 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: old viral clip that continues to be one of the 96 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: most popular clips. Every few months, it's circulating again, and 97 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: every new generation is becoming aware of it in a 98 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: positive way. By the way, they like it even more 99 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 1: the younger kids do, and I think that's because younger 100 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 1: men in particular are over the BS. So I think 101 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: what Trump learned from the first administration is you have 102 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: to stop these protests and not allow them to spiral 103 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: and grow, particularly because this is not a real protest, 104 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: it's astro turfed. They bring in professional protesters who want 105 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: to riot, who want to frankly, take away from whatever honest, 106 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,119 Speaker 1: peaceful protest is trying to be made, and they turn 107 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: many parts of American cities into violent cesspools. They burn 108 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: down buildings, they attack cars, they attack police. And so 109 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: this is what we started to see happen in Los 110 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: Angeles last night. And before I start playing some of 111 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: the clips from what happened last night, one bit of positivity. 112 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: I have not heard it talked about very much, but 113 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: murder rates in this country are collapsing all over the 114 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: country because Trump has committed to giving police the ability 115 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: to execute from a law and order perspective, and I'm 116 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: not hearing a lot of people talk about it. And yes, 117 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: murder rates do go up in the summer, Frankly, I 118 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: think it's because kids are out of school, people have 119 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: more time. But all over the country we are seeing 120 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five crime collapse. In fact, we could have 121 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 1: potentially the lowest murder rate in the US ever recorded 122 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: based on how much murder rates are collapsing in this 123 00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 1: country again. Trump took office, law order has been on 124 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: the upswing, and we are seeing massive declines in murder 125 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: rates all over the country. And it's not getting a 126 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: lot of attention. But let me just hit you with this. 127 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: Through May of twenty twenty five from last year, just 128 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: from last year, murder rates in New York City down 129 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: twenty seven percent. In murder rates in Chicago down twenty 130 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: four percent. Murder rates in Saint Louis down thirty five percent, 131 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: Denver sixty three percent decline, Baltimore thirty two percent decline, 132 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: Cleveland thirty seven percent decline, New Orleans thirty one percent decline. 133 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what the blue city is. A little 134 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: bit of red state law and order being applied makes 135 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: everybody safer. It's not getting a lot of attention, but 136 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: this is an incredible success story. And so what Trump 137 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: and his team saw is they said, we're not going 138 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: to elas the chaos that happened in twenty twenty to 139 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: take over the country again. And sadly, the people who 140 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: ended up losing the most were the people who had 141 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: to deal with the rates of violence overwhelmingly black and 142 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: brown in this country. As the BLM protest led to 143 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: a decline in law and order. So Trump says, hey, 144 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to bring in the National Guard. We're going 145 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: to provide even more protection than we did in twenty twenty. 146 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: We're not going to allow history to repeat itself. Now, 147 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: this is LA's police chief, Jim McDonell. This is cut 148 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: six last night, saying it's out of control what we 149 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: are seeing, the violence. This is cut six. 150 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 2: The National Guard was federalized, so they're working for the 151 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 2: US Army, not for the California State National Guard. 152 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 3: Do we need them? 153 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 1: Do we need them? 154 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 2: Well, looking at it tonight, you know this thing has 155 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 2: gotten out of control. What they're I think before I 156 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: could answer that, I'd have to know more about what 157 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: their capabilities are, what their role is intended to be 158 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 2: to be able to make that determination. 159 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: Okay, when the police chief says it's out of control, 160 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: that's a sign that probably he wants the National Guard 161 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: in that he doesn't feel like he has enough resources. 162 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: But I bet that this guy doesn't want to step 163 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: on Gavin Newsom, governor of California, and Karen Bass, the 164 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: mayor of LA, who are doing awful jobs. And here 165 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: is Tom Homan saying, protest all you want, but if 166 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: you touch law enforcement, it's a crime. Cut eight. 167 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 4: For those protests that cross the line. I've said many 168 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 4: times you can protest, you get your first point of rights, 169 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 4: but when you cross that line, you put hands on 170 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 4: my soft shirt, or you destroy property, or I say 171 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 4: that you're peed law enforcement, or you're normally heart reck 172 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,599 Speaker 4: consuming in halan, that's a crime, and that the trumpministration 173 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 4: is not what tolerant you cross that line.

He also 176 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: says that you just heard Tom Holman saying We're not 177 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: going to allow this to happen. Here is Tom Holman 178 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: saying the violence is escalating, getting worse, more violent. 179 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 2: Cut seven to the people who are not happy with 180 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 2: the fact that ICE is in the community doing what 181 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: ICE does? 182 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 5: You know? 183 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 2: It's I respect ICE for being a fellow law enforcement agency. 184 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 2: They have their mission, they have their what they have 185 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 2: to do. We don't engage in that activity, but again 186 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 2: we can't preclude them from doing that. 187 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: They have every right to do that. 188 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: This violence that I've seen is disgusting. It's escalated now 189 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 2: since the beginning of this incident. What we saw the 190 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 2: first night was bad. What we've seen subsequent to that 191 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 2: is getting increasingly worse and more violent. Tonight, we had 192 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 2: individuals out there shooting commercial grade fireworks at our officers. 193 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: That can kill you. Okay, Trump says, look, they spit, 194 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: we hit this cut one. Listen, I have a little statement. 195 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 6: They say, they spin, we hit. I told them nobody's 196 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 6: gonna spit on our police officers. 197 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 7: Nobody's gonna spit on our military. 198 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: Okay.

They 200 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: are being attacked police officers. Listen to what you heard 201 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: if you were on ABC News in La. This is 202 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: Mark Brown. He wants you to know. Look, this is 203 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: just a lot of people who want to have fun 204 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: watching cars burn. It's not a riot. This is what 205 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: this dude really said on ABC News. 206 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 8: Listen to cut four large group of people. It could 207 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 8: turn very volatile if you move law enforcement in there 208 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 8: and the wrong way and turn what is just a 209 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 8: bunch of people having fun watching cars burn into a 210 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 8: massive confrontation and altercation between officers and demonstrators. 211 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: Excuse me, a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn. 212 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: They're not pulling out skewers and making s'mores in the 213 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: backyard with the family. That's having fun watching a fire burn. 214 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: This is attacking people all over the city. Do you 215 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: think those cops were like, man, they're just having fun 216 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: watching the cars burn while molotov cocktails are raining down 217 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: on them from the overpass, which is what I saw 218 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: happening last night. Imagine you're watching ABC News. How does 219 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: that dude have a job. They're just having a There's 220 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn. Yeah, 221 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: that's kind of yeah, that's kind of what a riot is. 222 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: And also on CNN, Brian Stelter humpting himself, he wanted 223 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: you to know, most of La is fine. Uh, this 224 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 1: is cut three of it. Let me just say this too. 225 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: By the way, when La was burning, it wasn't the 226 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: entire city. Do you think people would have been happy 227 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: if you come on and you say, hey, yeah, there's 228 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: lots of people losing their homes, they're burning down. Most 229 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: of the city's not getting hit. I live in Tornado 230 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: Alley and a large extent in Nashville. Tornadoes come through, 231 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: they wipe out people's homes. Do you think if I 232 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: came on the day after a tornado and I was like, Hey, 233 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 1: just so, y'all know, most of the city didn't get 234 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: hit by the tornado, so we don't really need to 235 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: consider it a major issue. Of course not. But this 236 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: was Stelter on CNN saying, hey, it's really pretty isolated. 237 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: The riots cut three. 238 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 9: On one level, protests are always about images, about spectacle. 239 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 9: You might even say it's about theater, and we are 240 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 9: seeing that play out in La and I think it's 241 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 9: valuable to have that perspective as we see some of 242 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 9: these pictures, especially as we zoom out, and we recognize 243 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 9: that the unrest is isolated, is not overtaking the entire 244 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 9: city of La La is home to millions of people. 245 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 9: Most of them are having a normal day here on Sunday. 246 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the tornado. It just killed some people. Most 247 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: people are still that hurricane. Boy, you know, it didn't 248 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: hit most of Florida. It just hit part of Florida. 249 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: I mean, this is crazy, but that is what they 250 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: are trying to do to minimize Again, I think the 251 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: big story here is Trump one point zero and everybody 252 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: surrounding him saw what happened in the summer of riots 253 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: that led to I believe thousands of additional murders because 254 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: suddenly police couldn't do their job, and they are saying, 255 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: we're not gonna let the nation's second largest city, Los Angeles, 256 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: spiral out of control. By the way, a lot of 257 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: you in La listening to us. Now we have a 258 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: huge audience. You can weigh in and let us know 259 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: what you're seeing and what you think of the response 260 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: so far. And isn't it always interesting? Isn't always interesting 261 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: how the rioters, the looters and the protesters they never 262 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: do this when it's cold, Like they're never willing to 263 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: be out in the streets when it's twenty five degrees. Now, 264 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: I know LA's warm all the time, but it isn't 265 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: it amazing that they wait till the weather's perfect. It 266 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: has to be the summer. It has to be. When 267 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: it's not, you're not gonna be out in the streets shivering. 268 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: And and it's amazing they never really seem to hit 269 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: the bookstores, and they never really seem to do it 270 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: early in the morning. It's kind of interesting how it 271 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: all happens late at night, isn't it? And how it's 272 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: only like the best buy and the foot locker that 273 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: gets hit Barnes and Noble.

In the Harry Potter books right now, 277 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: they don't seem to be big readers the looters and 278 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: the rioters, despite the fact that they say that they 279 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: are trying to make a larger statement.

I had my 334 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: mother in law, my brother in law, and you sent 335 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: me the link and I thought, this can't be real. 336 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: There's no way that Olympic gymnasts Simone Biles, out of 337 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 1: nowhere just decided to rip you for simply saying, hey, 338 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: there shouldn't be a male pitcher winning a Minnesota Softball 339 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: Women's Championships title. And I still have a disbelief that 340 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: this happened. What was your reaction when you first saw 341 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 1: this when it popped up on your social media. 342 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 10: Feeds, Well, Clay, you were the very first person I 343 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 10: sent it to. I saw it pretty immediately, which is 344 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 10: pretty rare. I have my notifications off on X right, 345 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 10: like things don't typically pop up, but I think it 346 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 10: bypasses if someone mentions you or retweets or quotes you 347 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 10: and they have a certain number of followers. And so 348 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 10: I got this notification that said Simone Biles has tagged 349 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 10: you in a tweet, and I was honestly like starstruck 350 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 10: in that moment. I was I couldn't believe it. This 351 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 10: is a woman I publicly called on prior to this, 352 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 10: maybe a year or two ago, to stand with women, 353 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 10: not me personally, but just stand with the movement of 354 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 10: protecting women and girls in sports. So I click on it, 355 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 10: and Clay, I was It took me a minute. I 356 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 10: had to go back and forth to the profile several 357 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 10: times and make sure this was not a fake account. 358 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 10: But no, lo and behold, this was the real Simone 359 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 10: Biles following me, a bully for defending women and girls 360 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 10: in sports. Even still, just like you said, I'm in 361 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,479 Speaker 10: total disbelief that in the year twenty twenty five, this 362 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 10: is the stance that Simone Biles has chosen to take. 363 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 10: I think the response would have been a lot different 364 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 10: if this was in twenty twenty twenty one, maybe even 365 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 10: twenty twenty two. But to say this now, I just can't, 366 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 10: for the life of me, understand why she would do this. 367 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: So the attack was crazy on that, But then she 368 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,959 Speaker 1: also came after you over your body, which is like, 369 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: first of all, all athletes have, particularly as you become 370 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: Olympic champions. Sometimes bodies that are different, right like Michael 371 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: Phelps does not look like a normal human. It's one 372 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: reason why he's such an incredible swimmer Simone Biles is 373 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: not a quote normal sized human. It's one reason why 374 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 1: she can throw her body all over the place in 375 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: a women's at gymnastics, And so she's actually done body 376 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: positivity ads to try to make women and I think 377 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: boys too, more comfortable with their bodies. And so the 378 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: first thought when she attacked you that I had was 379 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: Riley's like the most average and I don't mean this 380 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: in a negative way, but you're actually the most average 381 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: sized girl out there, right, So my first thought was, 382 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: I mean, there's anything wrong with like a six foot 383 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: four woman or whatever you're And then I love you 384 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: made a video because my first thought was, like, Riley's 385 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: not even abnormally sized, but she was trying to ridicule you, 386 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: and she did it claiming that you are male size. 387 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: So that is even maybe crazier than the first tweet 388 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 1: she said. 389 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 10: It is by far crazier for a couple of reasons. 390 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 10: Number one because when she said this right, like fully 391 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 10: someone your own size, which would ironically be a man, 392 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 10: The first thing I thought of was this is this 393 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 10: is so hilarious because she's understanding and recognizing that men 394 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 10: and women are physically bio logically categorically different, right, Like, 395 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 10: like she just admitted that in this sea that I 396 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 10: think was meant to be an insult. But then of 397 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 10: course number two, yeah, to come from my body. First 398 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 10: of all, I'm five foot five, I mean relatively standard. 399 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 10: I think anyone would be a giant next to someone 400 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 10: who's like four foot eight, right, I think Simone Biles 401 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 10: is Yeah, I'm so standard sized. I'm like one hundred 402 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 10: and thirty one hundred and thirty five pounds. So it 403 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 10: took me a while to even make sense on this. 404 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 10: I'm like, is she calling me tall? Is she saying 405 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 10: I'm muscular? Is she saying I'm like, I didn't even 406 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 10: equate in my brain for a little bit. But I 407 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 10: will tell you the response that she has received from this. 408 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 10: I mean it's it's been the number one trending thing 409 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 10: on Twitter prior to the La riots, of course, which 410 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 10: is just terrific and an utter shame that this is 411 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 10: happening in our country. It was a number one trending 412 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 10: thing on Twitter for for I mean two days straight, 413 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 10: even on TikTok. Every TikTok video that pops up on 414 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 10: my for you page? Is someone coming for Simone Biles 415 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 10: for coming for me and for my body. Again, a 416 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 10: woman who has has historically made a platform a larger 417 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 10: platform for herself outside of her athletic success, for I mean, 418 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 10: praising women and their muscular bodies and the purpose that 419 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 10: they can serve. But nonetheless she has shown her true 420 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 10: colors here. I believe. 421 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: Well, I love that you posted a video with your 422 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: husband Louis, who is also awesome and was a swimmer 423 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: at the University of Kentucky where he actually measured you 424 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: and your slock feet. I'm presuming that was in the 425 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: front room of your home, which is really really funny, 426 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 1: but it also, just to me epitomizes the crazy hypocrisy 427 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: of her. To your point, yes, acknowledging bully someone on 428 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: your own size. Hey, there is a difference between men 429 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: and women, because that's oftentimes said, and so she's acknowledging 430 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: that even while she's trying to do it. So what 431 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 1: is the motivation here? I'm sure in some measure you 432 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: set back and you're like, yes, she has been thankful 433 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 1: obliterated by people from across the the athletic spectrum for 434 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: what she did. Why did she do it? Where did 435 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: this come from? 436 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 10: This is what I've been trying to figure out. I've 437 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 10: seen a couple of different series, and I've actually had 438 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 10: several Team USA gymnasts, both men and women, actually tons 439 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 10: of Olympians across the board, all kinds of different sports. 440 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 10: So every shout I will disclose any names, but several 441 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 10: have told me privately that this was an attempt to 442 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 10: put her name back in the spotlight prior to a 443 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 10: Netflix docu series that is to come out called Simon. 444 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 10: I think it's called Simone Rising or something of that nature, 445 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 10: which what a what a hilarious thing. Simone Bile's allegedly 446 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 10: feeling like she means to get back into the spotlight, 447 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:54,719 Speaker 10: and she does it by criticizing me insane, So that 448 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,959 Speaker 10: number one could potentially be a possibility. Some people are 449 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 10: saying they don't think this was really her, as a 450 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 10: management company or someone who runs her her social media 451 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 10: who posted this. Some people are saying she's been paid 452 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 10: to post this. That now posted receipts of her linked 453 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 10: with a certain like activist based organization that's in the 454 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 10: forty fifty million dollars and she's been tied to them. 455 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 10: So I have no idea. I cannot again I just 456 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 10: can't and with a sound mind, think she did this 457 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 10: because she actually believes it being an elite gymnast. I mean, 458 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 10: you look at men's and women's gymnastics. They're not even 459 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 10: the same sport essentially, Like you have palm of horse 460 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 10: and rings on the men's you don't have that with 461 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 10: the women. You don't have beam. Men don't compete on beam, right, 462 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 10: Like they're totally different sports essentially. I cannot believe that 463 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 10: she actually thinks this, So I guess the motive. The 464 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 10: motive is still in the up in the air. 465 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 1: Yeah. And by the way, let me say this because 466 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: my wife was a very good gymnast, and I think 467 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 1: she came in fifth in the state Michigan as a senior. 468 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. And she has argued for years if 469 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: men did the women's contests, men would be way better 470 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 1: at them than the women are. And to your point, Riley, 471 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: most women can't even do a lot of the things 472 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: that the men do right, like the rings, for instance, 473 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 1: Most women wouldn't have the upper body strength to be 474 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: able to do the things that men do. There. That's 475 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 1: not an attack on women's gymnastics. It's just that for 476 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: people who don't do those things men would be able 477 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: to do, for instance, the floor routine or the vault 478 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: or all these things, the ring the uneven bars better 479 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: than women do them because they're bigger, stronger, and faster. 480 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: That would translate even to gymnastics. I didn't know that. Again, 481 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 1: this is my wife analyzing it. Who does this stuff 482 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: at a high level or used to anyway, So she's 483 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: gotten attacked. I also think this is important. She waited 484 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: until her career was over, and you have talked about this. 485 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: Meghan Rappino did the same thing, the US women's soccer player. 486 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: You have seen women retire and then say, oh, I'm 487 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: fine with men going into women's sports. It's like they're 488 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 1: yanking the ladder up. I give credit. It's amazing. Jk Rowling. 489 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: Have you ever met jk Rowling? By the way, the 490 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: Harry Potter author, I have. 491 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 10: Never met jk Rowling. Of course she lives overseas, but 492 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 10: we've been able to communicate back and forth on X 493 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 10: maybe some other platforms. She's incredible the way that she 494 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:35,120 Speaker 10: had everything to lose. Yes, most people think she has 495 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 10: nothing to lose because she's already made her career. She 496 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 10: had everything to lose, yet it didn't matter to her. 497 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 10: It still doesn't matter to her, even she came out 498 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 10: with a pretty fiery tweet, Yes I directed towards some 499 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 10: own Biles. So she's to me a modern day civil 500 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 10: rights heroin. 501 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: I love her, And to your point, I read the 502 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: Harry Potter books back in the day. She's a billionaire. 503 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 1: She had no reason to need to an athlete to 504 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 1: speak out against the transagenda. She just saw it as 505 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: fundamentally a lie and wasn't willing to continue to tell 506 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: a lie. And so when you see Simone Biles, Megan Rapino, 507 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 1: your athletic career is now over and you are fighting 508 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: for your sister or other girls who might come after you, 509 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: for instance, to be able to compete only against women. 510 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: Isn't it uniquely awful and indefensible for highly successful female athletes, 511 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: who made tens of millions of dollars off of their 512 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: athletic talents, to suddenly come out in favor of men 513 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: and women's sports when they never are going to have 514 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: to compete against them themselves. 515 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 10: It's the definition of pulling up the ladder behind you. 516 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 10: That's exactly what Meghan Repino has done. That's exactly what 517 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 10: Simone Biles has now done. It's why. Look, like I said, 518 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 10: I publicly called on It was like this little campaign 519 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 10: thing I did maybe a year a year and a 520 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 10: half two years ago at this point, where I publicly 521 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 10: called on current elite male athletes in various different sports, 522 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 10: Caitlin Clark being one of them too, to stand with 523 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 10: women and just simply say that men should not be 524 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 10: in women's sports. I called them Serena Williams and if 525 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 10: you can remember she said on David Letterman in twenty thirteen, 526 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 10: I mean basically she already said it, but that was 527 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 10: before I guess it was bigoted or transphobic to say it. 528 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 3: But not a. 529 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 10: Single woman, not at least the ones that I've called on, 530 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 10: have chosen to respond in any manner. I mean, it's 531 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 10: been total silence. Crickets tried the same thing with men 532 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 10: on the other hand, but a totally different response. I 533 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 10: have male athletes, people like Bronk right, who come out 534 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 10: and say, yeah, men shouldn't be one in sports. Easy 535 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 10: to say that, right, Not really in my fight we 536 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 10: had several who said, you know, this is kind of 537 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 10: up to the women's handle, but yeah, this is crazy 538 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 10: I think it speaks to, of course, the physical differences 539 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 10: that are very obvious that people can see and observe 540 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 10: between men and women. But even just this little campaign 541 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 10: proved that men and women are inherently different in our 542 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 10: characteristics and how we approach things, and how women are 543 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 10: more emotionally driven and apologetic and empathetic and men are 544 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 10: typically more assertive, and that was made very clear in 545 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 10: this campaign we did. But yeah, Megan Raupino also important 546 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 10: to mention she's not interested in men. Therefore it is unlikely. 547 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 10: I know, she can still adopt or whatever options are 548 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 10: out there for her and her wife, Sue Bird, But 549 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 10: Megan Repino's not gonna have kids, so for her, she 550 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 10: has nothing on the line right Like she's done with 551 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 10: her career. She's not gonna have a daughter of her own. 552 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 10: She doesn't care. It's totally an attempt to virtue signal 553 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 10: be seen as this inclusive figure for all, but in reality, 554 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 10: what you're doing is being exclusive to women. 555 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: You have been so outspoken like Riley Gains. How much 556 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: do you let me mention this because I think people 557 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: might have missed it, But you had a man when 558 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 1: two different women's track titles in California had a man 559 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: win in Washington. The impetus for Simone Bile's reaction here 560 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: was a man was the star pitcher on a Minnesota 561 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: softball state champion team. And I think the initial comment 562 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: that she was responding to was you sharing the fact 563 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,959 Speaker 1: that in Minnesota they had turned the comments off on 564 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: the team photo which showed the boy way taller than 565 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: everybody else on the team. How much do you think 566 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: the conversation has changed as oh, this never happens when 567 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: you got California, Washington, and Minnesota all in the space 568 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: of basically a week with state championships being won by 569 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: men pretending to be women. 570 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, well, important to mention just last week, as you said, 571 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 10: this happened in five states Minnesota, California, Washington, Oregon, and 572 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 10: Maine where boys soul state qualifying spots, state championships or 573 00:31:55,200 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 10: podium spots from I mean deserving, hard working girls. So 574 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 10: five blue states that that you, I mean, the whole 575 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 10: it doesn't really happen argument. It can't stand at all 576 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 10: when it continues to happen. But that's the classic progression 577 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 10: of these issues is, well it doesn't happen, so we 578 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 10: don't have to worry about it. You know, you're you're 579 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 10: looking for a solution in search of a problem. That 580 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 10: that's step one, right, I think that was. That was 581 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 10: when I was competing, That was twenty twenty two. It 582 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 10: never really happens. Then it slowly shifts to you, Okay, 583 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 10: well it is happening, but it's not happening a lot, 584 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 10: therefore we shouldn't be concerned about this. Then it progresses too, Okay, 585 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 10: well it's happening, and here's why. It's a good thing 586 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 10: that it's happening. And then I think the final stage 587 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 10: of it is it's happening, it's a good thing, and 588 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 10: you're going to accept it or else. Again. That's that's 589 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 10: the classic progression, not just with this issue, but a 590 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 10: lot of these fringe cultural issues. That's why now you're 591 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 10: seeing what's happening in La happened. 592 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: It's it's the. 593 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 10: Same progression, but now the whole it's not really happening thing. 594 00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 10: It just doesn't stand. And to acknowledge how the blick 595 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 10: has has shifted to this again, look at someone biles 596 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 10: comments section, go on Instagram, go on Twitter, go on 597 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 10: on any article that's being posted, go on TikTok, and 598 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 10: she is getting absolutely demolished, to the point where I 599 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 10: almost feel bad for her, Like I really do have 600 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 10: reading these comments and like, oh my gosh, Like I 601 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 10: was prepared when I got that notification Clay on my 602 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 10: phone for that onslought of hatred to come towards me, 603 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 10: Like I was like, oh gosh, like she's going to 604 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 10: send all of her little little you know, minion people 605 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 10: who follow her over to my page. That is not 606 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 10: at all what has happened. I haven't read a single 607 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 10: negative comment about myself following this interaction, But you compare 608 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 10: that to twenty twenty two totally different response from the public. 609 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: Riley, keep up the fight.

Do you think you would have believed it? 674 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,720 Speaker 1: Were you interested in politics at that age? 675 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 5: I was very involved. Yes, I thought that good citizenship 676 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 5: was important and we even as I was cleaning out 677 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 5: some things one day I found a flyer I had 678 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 5: done and distributed to all my neighbors as part of 679 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 5: a citizenship project, reminding them to go vote and the 680 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 5: importance of going to vote. But never would I have 681 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 5: thought I would have been an elective office. But you know, 682 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 5: that's just one of those things I tell young people 683 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 5: all the time. Be ready to walk through open doors 684 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 5: and realize you don't chart your path, God charts your path. 685 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 5: And to be mindful and to accept those open doors. 686 00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 1: What did you think last night when you saw the 687 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: footage from Los Angeles out of control? 688 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 5: These men and women that are there trying to get 689 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 5: these criminal illegal aliens. Why in the world would you 690 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 5: have a mayor and a governor that are siding and 691 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:21,840 Speaker 5: trying to protect criminal illegal aliens and to obstruct ice 692 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 5: and keep them from doing their job. And you know, 693 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 5: I Clay, you talk to so many people when you're 694 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,240 Speaker 5: on the air every day. I'm not hearing from people 695 00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 5: that want to keep criminal illegal aliens. Look at what 696 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 5: is happening in Nashville. And this is not a partisan issue. 697 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,720 Speaker 5: This is a ninety percent issue. And people will say, 698 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:50,240 Speaker 5: if they are criminals, they need to be removed. Let's 699 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 5: remove these individuals. And people realize that coming across that 700 00:38:55,280 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 5: border illegally is a crime. And of course we isis 701 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 5: out there doing their job. We are a nation that 702 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 5: is built on the rule of law, and it is 703 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:15,720 Speaker 5: imperative that these officials implement and bide by the law. 704 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 5: If they don't like the law, they can try to 705 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:24,280 Speaker 5: change the law, but it is there are set procedures 706 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 5: for entering the country legally. There are statutes that determine 707 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 5: what is and is not a crime, and whether it's 708 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 5: a felony or a misdemeanor. And to have people that 709 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 5: want to pick and choose and say we're going to 710 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 5: enforce this, but we're not going to enforce that, and 711 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 5: a sanctuary for this but not for that. 712 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 3: This is. 713 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 5: What really spurs a lot of the chaos that you're 714 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 5: seeing take place in places like LA. 715 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 1: It's not just La either, because I hear from some 716 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 1: people and I know we've got a lot of people 717 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: listening in California, but they say, oh, that's just a 718 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: blue city there. What do I care. We live in 719 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 1: a red state. You and me one of my senators, 720 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: and I'm glad that you are, and maybe more here 721 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: in a little bit. But when you see what's happening 722 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 1: in Nashville, because I think a lot of people out 723 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: there say, okay, state Tennessee very red. There's a mayor, 724 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: Freddie O'Connell in a city of Nashville who has basically said, hey, 725 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 1: we're going to try to stop ice from doing their work. 726 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: This has become a big talking point many cities all 727 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: over the place. First, you have got a bill called 728 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,839 Speaker 1: the Remove Act that would take from ninety days down 729 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 1: to fifteen days to help expedite the removal of people 730 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 1: who shouldn't be in this country. So that is something 731 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: you're doing directly to try to help the president. But 732 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: when you see a city like Nashville, when you see 733 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 1: someone making the choices that the mayor there is making, 734 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,320 Speaker 1: that Karen bass is making in Los Angeles, to directly 735 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 1: defy the president's authority, can you believe it? 736 00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 3: It is difficult to believe. 737 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 5: And this is why removing these criminal, illegal aliens is 738 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 5: a ninety percent issue and people want them to be 739 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 5: taken out of the country. And the other thing is 740 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,399 Speaker 5: the doxing. This is something that happened in Nashville and 741 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 5: you had the mayor and his office that actually exposed 742 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 5: the names of HSI investigators and also of our ice 743 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:36,399 Speaker 5: agents and their operations. Now you cannot do that and 744 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 5: exposing that. We found out that it is not illegal 745 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 5: to reveal the name of a law enforcement officer. It 746 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 5: is illegal when they're undercover and you reveal their information. 747 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 5: So my preventing law enforcement doxing that legislation we've also 748 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 5: filed to include law enforcements who are implementing the law 749 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 5: in that so that we can protect our law enforcement 750 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 5: officers at the local, state. 751 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:12,720 Speaker 3: And federal level. 752 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:17,239 Speaker 5: It should be illegal to dox them, whether they're undercover 753 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 5: or out doing their regular job. And what we see 754 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 5: happening with this obstruction is people are saying, why the 755 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 5: Democrats choosing to. 756 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:31,839 Speaker 3: Die on this hill? 757 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 5: Why are they absolutely making this their issue number one 758 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 5: when this is something that people overwhelmingly support. Get them 759 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:49,919 Speaker 5: removed from the country. Protect law enforcement, don't dox them, 760 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 5: don't go put their pictures up, don't go put their 761 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 5: home address, don't endanger their families. People want to show 762 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 5: respect for law enforcement. 763 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: Department of Justice investigating what Nashville has happened. You've asked 764 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: for that, Yes, Pam Bondi's the attorney general. What do 765 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: you expect that investigation to be, like, how should it be? 766 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:12,399 Speaker 5: You know, I'm sure they will have something to say 767 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:12,839 Speaker 5: about this. 768 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 3: Sent the letter over. 769 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 5: I have requested that they formalize an investigation, and I 770 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 5: would expect that at some point we will hear from that. 771 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,479 Speaker 5: You do have the Homeland Security Committee in the House, 772 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 5: which is chaired by Representative Green out of Tennessee. Yes, 773 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 5: and also the Judiciary Committee in the house. They have 774 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 5: started an investigation and looking at what happened with obstructing 775 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 5: these raids. 776 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 1: Were you a studd I mean, you've lived in the 777 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 1: state of Tennessee and in the Nashville area, as have 778 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: I for a very long time. And look, sometimes mayors 779 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: are good, sometimes mayors are bad, particularly as it pertains 780 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: to any big city that you might have in a state. 781 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: I was stunned when I saw the mayor of Nashville, 782 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: Freddie O'Connell, engaging in this behavior and having a press 783 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 1: conference to brag about it. Were you as stunned as 784 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 1: I was? 785 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 5: I was stunned. I couldn't believe that there would be 786 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 5: a defiance of removing criminals. You know, one of the 787 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,880 Speaker 5: top issues when you talk to people in Middle Tennessee 788 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 5: and West Tennessee crime they talk about the escalated occurrence 789 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 5: of criminal acts. Carjackings, particularly home. 790 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: Robbery, had one of the high violent crime rates in 791 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: the whole nation, right, And. 792 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 5: So it has stunned people that Nashville had a mayor 793 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 5: that would come out and would choose to protect criminal, 794 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 5: illegal aliens over law abiding citizens. When people have been 795 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 5: saying we've got to get the crime down, they've been 796 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 5: really unsettled by the number of home rob yes that 797 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 5: have taken place and the number of gangs that have 798 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 5: moved into the Nashville area. I have not talked to 799 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 5: a single person who wants to have more Trenda or 800 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 5: Agua or MS thirteen in their community. 801 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 3: I mean, not one. They want them gone. 802 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: They should be gone. We're talking to Senator Marsha Blackburn 803 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 1: of Tennessee, Okay, in particular. Now, Big Beautiful Bill is underway. Yes, 804 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: you are in the Senate majority fifty three Republicans. I'm 805 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,360 Speaker 1: sure you like everybody else, saw Elon and Trump going 806 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 1: back and forth. Elon says there's not enough cutting of 807 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 1: spending that's going on. This is past the House. President 808 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 1: Trump says, Hey, we're going to create incredible growth rate. 809 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,720 Speaker 1: We're going to put in place all these tax cuts 810 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 1: for years and years ago, because otherwise they expire. What 811 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: should we know about the Big Beautiful Bill? What should 812 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 1: the timeframe be? There's a ton of deal with the 813 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 1: border as well, which would help to ideally keep some 814 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 1: other president like Biden from wide opening the border again 815 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 1: to allow people to pour in. What's the latest? What 816 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,320 Speaker 1: should we know? What's the time for us, yes, and. 817 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 5: We are hopeful to have it to the President by 818 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 5: July fourth, so that we've got that true independence today 819 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 5: and we know that this is a tax cut bill. 820 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 3: It is kind of tax cut and jobs at two. 821 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 5: Point zero, and we will make those tax cuts permanent. 822 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 5: We're also trying to make permanent R and D bus 823 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 5: bonus appreciation, interest expensing because we've got a lot of 824 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 5: small businesses in Tennessee. Ninety three percent of our jobs 825 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 5: are small business jobs in the state and that's important 826 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 5: to them. Also provisions for no tax on tips over 827 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 5: time and social Security, and that is my legislation to 828 00:46:55,360 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 5: remove the tax from social Security for our seniors. In 829 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 5: the process of negotiating those, we're finalizing some of those provisions. 830 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 5: We want to get permanence on these provisions. That's how 831 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:15,320 Speaker 5: you get that extended growth that will run out past 832 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:19,359 Speaker 5: ten years. So we'd like not to be back at 833 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 5: the negotiating table. In businesses and individuals, tennesseeans tell me 834 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:26,959 Speaker 5: all the time, just tell me what the rules are 835 00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 5: and I'll play by the rules. But we don't like 836 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 5: this changing everything, and especially when we have so many 837 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:39,719 Speaker 5: small businesses, mom and pops, small business manufacturing businesses on 838 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,360 Speaker 5: our main streets. We need some permanents. 839 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 1: We've had Senator Ron Johnson on the show. He says 840 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: more spending needs to be cut. We've had Ran Paul 841 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: On saying the same thing. Are you optimistic that the 842 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 1: Senate is going to be able to come to us? 843 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 3: Yes, sir, I am. 844 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:58,319 Speaker 5: The House did one and a half trillion in spending reductions. 845 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 5: The Senate won't say two trillillion dollar reduction. And we've 846 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:03,839 Speaker 5: got a pathway. 847 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 3: To do that. Now. 848 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 5: The Doge cuts are they have to come to us 849 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 5: through omb from the White House, and then that is 850 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 5: going into what is called a recision bill, So we 851 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 5: can't put those into the reconciliation the tax bill. 852 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 3: They've got to travel separately. Kind of. 853 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 5: It's the same time we got the first package of those. 854 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 5: It's nine billion dollars, which over a ten billion a 855 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 5: ten year period, you're talking about significant savings. 856 00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 1: Last question for you, I think the key to all 857 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,120 Speaker 1: this is growth. There's a guy who lives in the 858 00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 1: Nashville area. You're kind of smart. Come on, yeah, he 859 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: makes this case, but I think it's one that is 860 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: being missed a little bit. And I want to give 861 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 1: you an opportunity. But if we get the growth of 862 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 1: the economy to three percent or more, which I think 863 00:48:56,760 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: we will, then we are going to actually start to 864 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:01,880 Speaker 1: cut the deficit. 865 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:02,880 Speaker 3: That's correct. 866 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 1: It's really important because the CBO, and there's all these 867 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: numbers that are running around out there, all of it's 868 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: predicated the projections on what the growth rate of the 869 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 1: country is. If we get to three percent, then the 870 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 1: national debt starts getting paid down, and the President's focused 871 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,920 Speaker 1: on growth more than cuts. Ideally you get both, but growth, 872 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:25,320 Speaker 1: to a large extent, according to people like Art Laugher, 873 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:27,840 Speaker 1: is the most important thing that is accurate. 874 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:31,840 Speaker 5: And bear in mind CBO is always wrong on their projections. 875 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 5: They have been wrong every single time. They were wrong 876 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:40,280 Speaker 5: on the twenty seventeen cuts. And so you do want 877 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:44,320 Speaker 5: to reduce spending and you want to get that growth. 878 00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:50,080 Speaker 5: And President Trump had the Senate Finance Republicans at the 879 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 5: White House last week to work on some of this 880 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 5: with him, the Vice President, Secretary Besson, and Kevin Hassett. 881 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 5: And one of the things we know is that if 882 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 5: you are growing, if you put these cuts in place, 883 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 5: and it's the largest tax cut, and you get permanence 884 00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 5: on R and D and expensing and depreciation. Then you 885 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,960 Speaker 5: are going to see that because you will have your 886 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 5: small businesses choose to grow, yes, and to hire and 887 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 5: to expand. That is how you get that growth. And 888 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 5: the multiplier effect on that is so significant. 889 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 1: And not only that. COVID hit right as Trump's economy 890 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 1: was exploding right January of twenty twenty February of twenty 891 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 1: twenty probably the greatest economic season we've ever had. Correct 892 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,840 Speaker 1: and then COVID happened, and suddenly everything goes off the rails. 893 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 1: We get that rolling again by twenty twenty four, twenty 894 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 1: twenty eight, in the next election cycle, we should be 895 00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:58,240 Speaker 1: firing on all silly. 896 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:03,640 Speaker 5: That is accurate, and we are looking forward to having 897 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:08,759 Speaker 5: this permanence. And then bear in mind too, in twenty seventeen, 898 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 5: when we did the Tax Cut and Jobs Act, the 899 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 5: biggest benefactor of those changes were your small businesses. You 900 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:25,560 Speaker 5: saw such an explosion of small business manufacturing, and this 901 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 5: was so good for Tennessee. We had a lot of 902 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 5: businesses that had been there for years that this was 903 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 5: their chance to grow, so they jumped to that level. 904 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,200 Speaker 5: And now they are waiting to hire, They are waiting 905 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 5: to invest. They're waiting to punch send on those equipment 906 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:48,960 Speaker 5: orders because they want to be able to depreciate that 907 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 5: in that first year or two and then move into upgrades. 908 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 1: Senator Marshall Blackburn with us by the way, just walking 909 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 1: in behind you, one of your senate colleague, Senator Tommy Tubberville, 910 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: to be governor colleagues before long two. 911 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 3: Timmy Tubberville is a great guy.

You just heard from Senator Marshall Blackburn at Tennessee, 942 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:38,319 Speaker 1: and now you got a guy who's a senator and 943 00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:41,440 Speaker 1: also soon to be a governor, Tommy Tupperville. I know 944 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,240 Speaker 1: you made the announcement. It was the last week I was. 945 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 1: I was on a vacation with my kids running around 946 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: at Universal Studios, so I know you were on with 947 00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:52,280 Speaker 1: Buck but we'll dive into all that here in a moment. 948 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 1: But also, I know you are a monster football fan. 949 00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 1: They had a big decision about twenty and a half 950 00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,799 Speaker 1: million dollars to spend. I bet you still talk to 951 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 1: a lot of coaches. I do too. Did you ever 952 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 1: think that we'd end up in this situation where guys 953 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 1: are basically holding out every few months and saying, Hey, 954 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 1: unless I get ex coach, I'm not going to play 955 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,799 Speaker 1: for you. I know the Senate it's not easy, but 956 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: do a part of you feel a little bit sorry 957 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 1: for some of these coaches what they have to deal 958 00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 1: with on a day to day basis. 959 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,319 Speaker 6: It's a killer that's just gonna run a lot of 960 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,359 Speaker 6: people out. Obviously Nick didn't. He didn't last long. He 961 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:30,239 Speaker 6: got out. And when you can't control your destiny. And 962 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:32,920 Speaker 6: Nick and I and a lot of my buddies I 963 00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:36,879 Speaker 6: grew up with, we learned from from good people. Yeah, 964 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,359 Speaker 6: Jimmy Johnson, you bring in two three stars nobody ever 965 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 6: heard of, and you build a football team. 966 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 1: You can't do that anymore. 967 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 6: It's not about building a team, it's not about loyalty, 968 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 6: and it's not about education. The three things that it 969 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 6: should be about it's totally gotten away from that and 970 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,920 Speaker 6: out it's about money. And I'm fine with them making money. 971 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 6: I've always thought they should make money. It's a full 972 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 6: time job. And but there's really it's hard to make 973 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:05,760 Speaker 6: a plan for it. When you've got six hundred athletes, 974 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 6: half of them are women and then the other half 975 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 6: most of them are Olympic sports and men's sports non revenue. 976 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:16,719 Speaker 6: You have two sports. You know, basketball really doesn't make 977 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,840 Speaker 6: any money. Everybody said, well, men's basketball at one or 978 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,799 Speaker 6: two schools might make money them. They're lucky to break even. 979 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,879 Speaker 6: They spend a lot of money. The only only one 980 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 6: that makes money is the big stadium football teams. And 981 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 6: of course now the TV contracts have gotten huge. But yeah, 982 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 6: twenty zero point five million to spread around on each team. Now, 983 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,480 Speaker 6: you don't have to get involved in that, you know that, Clay, Yeah, 984 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:40,640 Speaker 6: you can opt out and say, listen, we don't have 985 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 6: the money to do it. And that's what's going to 986 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 6: happen to seventy percent. They don't have the money to 987 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:45,440 Speaker 6: do that. 988 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 1: Right. We're talking to Senator Tommy Tuberville. Next year he'll 989 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:52,239 Speaker 1: be governor Tommy Tuberbowl, which will be an interesting transition. 990 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 1: Why what's the role that as Alabama governor was so 991 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 1: attractive to you? Next year, you'll, I think, you know, 992 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: go ahead and make a prediction be the next governor 993 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 1: for Alabama. What do you want to do. 994 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 6: Well, I'm a builder, as I was a football coach, 995 00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 6: and up here you're one of one hundred, and you 996 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 6: can do a lot of good for your state and 997 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:15,560 Speaker 6: the country. It's really watered down. It runs at a 998 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:19,719 Speaker 6: slow pace. But I looked at stay in and my 999 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:21,839 Speaker 6: wife and I talked about it, and you know, I've 1000 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 6: got grandkids now, and I look at a situation where 1001 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 6: I can go home. I can take the experience that 1002 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,399 Speaker 6: I've learned up here, all the all the connections. Now 1003 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 6: you've got to have connections to get federal money. And 1004 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:35,080 Speaker 6: I can go back to Alabama and we can we 1005 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 6: can get a coaching staff, as i'd call it, you know, 1006 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,840 Speaker 6: people run education, health care, and military all that, and 1007 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:43,000 Speaker 6: do the same thing at a at a smaller level, 1008 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,799 Speaker 6: just for the five million people in the state. And 1009 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,240 Speaker 6: uh we go from there and we hit the ground running. 1010 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:52,240 Speaker 6: So you can you can see results as a governor. 1011 00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 6: You can see results here. Say they are few and 1012 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 6: far between, and they're very, very slow. And again I 1013 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,560 Speaker 6: didn't I didn't mind doing it when we would I 1014 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,239 Speaker 6: had bid administration. It was defense. I'm a defensive guy, 1015 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 6: but it was defense all the time. You couldn't get 1016 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:08,600 Speaker 6: anything done. Now with President Trump, and he's doing a 1017 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:12,320 Speaker 6: great job. He's gotten common sense back up here. He's 1018 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,239 Speaker 6: working the halls of the Senate trying to get this big, 1019 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 6: beautiful bill across, which it will eventually. But at the 1020 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 6: end of the day, I just looked at it and say, 1021 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,480 Speaker 6: you know, to use my ability as the best I 1022 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:25,360 Speaker 6: can and the best for Alabama. 1023 00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 1: Go back and be governor. Alabama is an awesome state. 1024 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,560 Speaker 1: It's a great place. There will be a Senate opening 1025 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: to replace you. It's going to be a Republican. How 1026 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:36,800 Speaker 1: do you see that race playing out? 1027 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 6: There'll be four or five six people run for it, 1028 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:42,439 Speaker 6: and they should They all call me, and I said, 1029 00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:44,600 Speaker 6: of course, you know, I'm telling y'all, I'm not going 1030 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:48,080 Speaker 6: to endorse anybody. You're on your own until you win 1031 00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 6: the primary. And I think that's the right way to 1032 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 6: do it. Just it'll be a free for all. Even 1033 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 6: Bruce Pearl, I've heard his name thrown in there. I 1034 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:57,120 Speaker 6: don't think at the end of the day, he will 1035 00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 6: do it. 1036 00:57:57,360 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: I've texted some about him. I love coach Pearl like 1037 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 1: you do. He's the basketball coach for Auburn for people 1038 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:04,479 Speaker 1: out there that might not know. And he's been really 1039 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 1: outspoken because he's been so fired up about the response 1040 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 1: since October seventh. As a guy who's Jewish, there's just 1041 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 1: a lot of awfulness that's been happening. Yeah. Yeah, and he. 1042 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,919 Speaker 6: Would be a great politician, But I just I don't 1043 00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,439 Speaker 6: think it's time for him. You know, I was retired. Yeah, 1044 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 6: you know, I wasn't still working. I could have been, 1045 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 6: but I just chose to get out and I worked 1046 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,480 Speaker 6: for ESPN for a couple of years and yeah, and 1047 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 6: I said, you know, I'm going to do something for 1048 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 6: American people, the country that gave me so much. And 1049 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 6: so that's the reason I did it. And I think 1050 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:36,320 Speaker 6: if he was retired, he'd be a great senator. 1051 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:39,240 Speaker 1: What should we know about the so called big beautiful Bill. 1052 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,480 Speaker 1: I was just talking with Senator Blackburn. She says she 1053 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 1: feels like there's a good pathway to get this done 1054 00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 1: by July fourth. I know that's the kind of back 1055 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,960 Speaker 1: of the mind target. Do you feel good about that? 1056 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,480 Speaker 1: What do you hear? Obviously there's been a lot of 1057 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 1: fireworks all around it as it's gotten closer. What do 1058 00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 1: you see on the floor? Yeah, first of all, we 1059 00:58:58,560 --> 00:58:59,880 Speaker 1: have no choice. We've got to get it done. 1060 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 6: It's got to be passed, and it's got to be 1061 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,280 Speaker 6: passed soon because if we don't, twenty two percent of 1062 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 6: everybody's taxes will go up. And and you can just 1063 00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 6: you can, you can say enough, you know, for the 1064 00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 6: Republican Party after we'd promised all this. Now the other part, 1065 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 6: other than the tax cuts, there's a lot of good 1066 00:59:16,080 --> 00:59:18,160 Speaker 6: things in the bill. Now, there's a lot of things. 1067 00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:20,600 Speaker 6: It's like, you know, putting lipstick on a pig, you know, 1068 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:23,000 Speaker 6: as a conservative like me, I'd rather not do it. 1069 00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,000 Speaker 6: But it's like anything else, Clai, you're not gonna have. 1070 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:27,880 Speaker 6: It's not gonna be perfect, but we have got to 1071 00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:31,440 Speaker 6: get growth in this country. A lot of my cohorts 1072 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,600 Speaker 6: are saying it's not enough cuts. Well, at the end 1073 00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:36,320 Speaker 6: of the day, we're counting on tariffs and we're counting 1074 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,520 Speaker 6: on growth to overcome a lot of the the cuts 1075 00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 6: that's not in the bill. And so it's it's gonna 1076 00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:46,240 Speaker 6: be a fight. You know, Rand Paul, he doesn't like 1077 00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 6: the debt limit five five tree and yeah, none of 1078 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:49,600 Speaker 6: us do. 1079 00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 1: Uh. But that's not to say you're gonna get there. 1080 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 1: I said, Ran. 1081 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,800 Speaker 6: You know, President Trump just wants to a point where 1082 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:57,479 Speaker 6: we don't have to raise it every three months because 1083 00:59:57,520 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 6: the Democrats are gonna hold our feet to the fire 1084 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 6: every time we want do it. Let's just do it 1085 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:04,959 Speaker 6: all at one time. Everybody's got a reason for doing 1086 01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:07,640 Speaker 6: it or not doing it. Some say there's not enough cuts, 1087 01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:11,439 Speaker 6: but we've got to take care of the people that work. 1088 01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:15,840 Speaker 6: Clay what President Trump and heights one in sixteen and 1089 01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 6: in twenty four was the people that go to work 1090 01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 6: every day and put their nose to the grindstone and 1091 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 6: barely make enough money to pay for their family and 1092 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:28,919 Speaker 6: their kids going to school. And they look around going, 1093 01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 6: we've got criminals that don't go with the law. We've 1094 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:36,200 Speaker 6: got we've got illegals here that are getting food stamps, welfare, 1095 01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:37,160 Speaker 6: free housing. 1096 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 1: What's going on? Who? 1097 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 6: Somebody's not standing for us what President Trump is And 1098 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 6: this bill stands up for the American worker, and that's 1099 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:46,920 Speaker 6: reading we have to get it done. We have to 1100 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 6: get it done now and then we can do it another 1101 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 6: We've got another reconciliation coming, so it's not like we're finished. 1102 01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 6: Let's get this one across the goal line. And there's 1103 01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:58,480 Speaker 6: some things that I want to push a little bit harder, 1104 01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 6: But at the end of the day, I'm gonna vote 1105 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,200 Speaker 6: for because I know how important it is to our country. 1106 01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 1: We had Riley Gaines on the show earlier today. You've 1107 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 1: done a lot of OutKick shows over the years with her, 1108 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 1: with her yeah, and a lot of our You know, 1109 01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:14,919 Speaker 1: I can't believe that out kick site that I found 1110 01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 1: it is the only one that we'll say men shouldn't 1111 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:19,880 Speaker 1: be playing in women's sports in all of sports. You 1112 01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:22,960 Speaker 1: have been working on this, but just as a preliminary 1113 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 1: you coach for a long time, would you have ever 1114 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:30,880 Speaker 1: believed that Democrats would make it their party belief system 1115 01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 1: that men who pretend to be women should be able 1116 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 1: to win women's championships? And for people out there who say, 1117 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: oh it doesn't matter, look California, Washington, and Minnesota. Just 1118 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 1: in the last week, men have won women's state championships. 1119 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this is crazy town. Did you see the 1120 01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 1: softball pitcher of course I did, bigger, taller. 1121 01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 6: They couldn't. They couldn't get to swing around, of course, 1122 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 6: or it passed them. It is foolishness, yes, And you know, 1123 01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:01,600 Speaker 6: it makes no sense whatsoever. The Democrats don't believe in it, 1124 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:03,640 Speaker 6: but they push it because they don't have anything else 1125 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 6: to push, and so they want to keep that group 1126 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,880 Speaker 6: of LBGTQ folks voting for them. And name Fray, Well, 1127 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 6: if we do this, and we're going to lose that 1128 01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:15,040 Speaker 6: voting base, and that's only really the vote voting base 1129 01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 6: they have, and they really don't have all of them. 1130 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:21,360 Speaker 6: It's just it makes no sense to me. 1131 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 1: Would you have ever believe that was ever going to 1132 01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:25,720 Speaker 1: be an issue? Hoolytically no. 1133 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 6: And and the other thing is not just participations, it's 1134 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:31,840 Speaker 6: dressing in the same dressing rooms and showers. I mean, 1135 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:36,440 Speaker 6: who believes that? Who believes that's right? I mean, it 1136 01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,160 Speaker 6: just makes no sense. And so again it goes back 1137 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 6: to their ideology. Uh, you know, these the Democratic Party 1138 01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 6: is just it's splintered. You've got the far left that's 1139 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,840 Speaker 6: pushing all this, and so you've got the people that 1140 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 6: are moderate Democrats are looking going, well, if I don't 1141 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,840 Speaker 6: go along with this, I'm not gonna get campaign money 1142 01:02:57,000 --> 01:02:59,800 Speaker 6: and I'm gonna be kicked to the curb and I'm 1143 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:00,880 Speaker 6: lose my seat. 1144 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:01,600 Speaker 1: That's read. 1145 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,200 Speaker 6: We need term limits, I'm telling you. If we don't, 1146 01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:06,360 Speaker 6: we got to do something where people don't have to 1147 01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:09,400 Speaker 6: be held hostage by the leadership of their parties. We 1148 01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:11,840 Speaker 6: have to have term limits where people can think for 1149 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 6: themselves and vote for their constituents. 1150 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:16,720 Speaker 1: And look, by the way you're making a choice. You 1151 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 1: could have stayed in the Senate as long as you 1152 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:19,800 Speaker 1: wanted to be in the Senate, right, you could have 1153 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:23,440 Speaker 1: been in here for decades. But you have served, and 1154 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 1: now you want to go back to Alabama and be governor. 1155 01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:28,480 Speaker 1: And I'm betting after eight years as governor of Alabama, 1156 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:30,120 Speaker 1: you'll probably just say, hey, it's time to work on 1157 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 1: my golf shots more. 1158 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would would, I would hope, but yeah, you know, 1159 01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:35,880 Speaker 6: And I've been one of the most outspoken and I'm 1160 01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 6: not a politician. Heck, I come up here and look 1161 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 6: around going, hey this, I stand for this, and I'm 1162 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:41,560 Speaker 6: gonna speak out for it. I'm the only one that's 1163 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:45,640 Speaker 6: had a bill on biological boys and men and women's sports, 1164 01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 6: and we voted on it three times. I've had it 1165 01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:50,280 Speaker 6: on the floor three times, and I've not cut one 1166 01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:50,920 Speaker 6: Democrat to. 1167 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:51,400 Speaker 1: Vote for it. 1168 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:54,840 Speaker 6: I actually lost a Republican the first time we we 1169 01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:57,600 Speaker 6: we had that on the floor. So that just no 1170 01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:01,200 Speaker 6: common sense up here when it comes a lot of things. Again, 1171 01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 6: the Democrats are look, they're searching for an ideology that 1172 01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 6: will strike a note with the American people where then 1173 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 6: get re elected. But this nonsense in California right now, 1174 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 6: the nonsense of the girls being beat up, literally beat 1175 01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:21,840 Speaker 6: up against men in sports. It's a losing. 1176 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,720 Speaker 1: Costs Alabama a lot of people with a lot of 1177 01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:27,560 Speaker 1: different beliefs. This is this kind of stuff would not 1178 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:30,480 Speaker 1: happen in Red states, right even with blue cities, They're 1179 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 1: not going to allow this kind of violence to take place. 1180 01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:39,120 Speaker 1: Did you ever think that it would be necessary to 1181 01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 1: just have a legislation to not allow men and women's sports? 1182 01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 6: And never dreamed it would even we even be talking 1183 01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,960 Speaker 6: about it. But if you go back to red and blue, 1184 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:53,720 Speaker 6: you know how sports how important they are in Red states. Yep, 1185 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 6: I'm talking about girls sports and little kids sports and 1186 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 6: in high school and junior high and then and then 1187 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:05,919 Speaker 6: even you know the higher education. It's so important. It's 1188 01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 6: not that important in blue states. I mean a lot 1189 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 6: of the Democrats up here that they would know difference 1190 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:13,960 Speaker 6: between football and basketball. I mean, it's not that important 1191 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:17,480 Speaker 6: in their family life. And so alway isn't making a difference, 1192 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:17,880 Speaker 6: you know. 1193 01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 1: It doesn't. 1194 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 6: So it's so important to in the state of Alabama 1195 01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 6: that you would have an uprising deluxe if you had 1196 01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:29,000 Speaker 6: had that pitcher in softball pitching against women, you would, 1197 01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:32,040 Speaker 6: I mean it would. And then of course you know 1198 01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 6: the swimming with Riley Gaines and very disappointed in the 1199 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:37,760 Speaker 6: gymnasts come out the other day. 1200 01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: Yes, on Biles, I couldn't believe it. I could not 1201 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 1: believe what she said. 1202 01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:47,400 Speaker 6: It makes no sense if if you can take the 1203 01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 6: top twenty men in the country that could have that 1204 01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:52,600 Speaker 6: were competed against her. 1205 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 1: That would probably have beat her. Yeah, true in anything. 1206 01:05:56,880 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 6: And so it's like some of the older of tennis 1207 01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:03,720 Speaker 6: players and that of the years have made tons of 1208 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,360 Speaker 6: money playing women's sports, and all of a sudden, oh yeah, 1209 01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:08,880 Speaker 6: I think this is right. They should be able to participate. 1210 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,720 Speaker 6: What I mean, you'd have been and also ran it's 1211 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 6: that had happened. So what's happening now is we're going 1212 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 6: to lose little girls. Yeah, we're gonna lose little girls 1213 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:20,840 Speaker 6: because they're gonna look at and parents are going to say, 1214 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 6: there's no reason for you to do that. We're gonna 1215 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 6: have a lot of cheerleaders, is what we're gonna have, 1216 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 6: because they like to be athletic. 1217 01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:26,400 Speaker 4: Uh. 1218 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:30,120 Speaker 6: And it's just it's just unfortunate that it's gonna happen. 1219 01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:33,800 Speaker 6: But you look at some and some people. You know, 1220 01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 6: there are entire teams in high school across the country, 1221 01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:42,560 Speaker 6: most on the West Coast. They're all tres trensenders. I 1222 01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:45,280 Speaker 6: mean it's over. And everybody said, well it's just a 1223 01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:47,480 Speaker 6: few of them. Now it's not a few, and it's 1224 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:49,000 Speaker 6: growing every day. 1225 01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:51,120 Speaker 1: Look, I will say this, and I think I've said 1226 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 1: it on the show, but if I haven't, Blue States, 1227 01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: the way that we are going, every track and field 1228 01:06:57,280 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 1: champion will be a man pretending to be a woman. Yeah, 1229 01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:03,400 Speaker 1: I mean that's where we're headed. It's crazy. Congratulations to 1230 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:06,440 Speaker 1: you a year in advance on being a governor. You 1231 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:08,240 Speaker 1: probably don't want to celebrate early. You don't want to 1232 01:07:08,280 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 1: high step into the end zone. Got to run through 1233 01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:12,480 Speaker 1: the end zone.
