1
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,880
Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirk Show starts now reasons.

2
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 2: I think that it could be.

3
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 3: We will see the policies of the Federal Reserve, the

4
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 3: spending policies. Congress sets the spending policies.

5
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 4: So look, I'm just going to I'm going to cut

6
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 4: to the chase because I'm out of time.

7
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 5: But at the end of the.

8
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 6: Day, what you're articulating is a double standard, and it's

9
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 6: disappointing to me. Thank you, mister Chairman, Thank you, Senator James, Chairman,

10
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 6: Thank you Sam.

11
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 2: Good to have you here this morning. I think we're

12
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 2: seeing here in this.

13
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 6: Committee is we really do have a divide between two

14
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 6: very different philosophies about how to go forward and what's

15
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 6: best for the American people in this economy, what's best

16
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 6: for global competitiveness. I remember sitting right in this chamber

17
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,119
Speaker 6: as we were debating whether or not which had launched

18
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 6: the multiple trillion dollar massive spending bills, which is a

19
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 6: two trillion dollar COVID bill, the Inflation Reduction Act, massive

20
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 6: multi trillion dollar bills that even Democrat former secretaries of

21
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 6: Treasury said could be inflationary, and indeed it was. You

22
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 6: compare that outcome to what we are going to return

23
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 6: back to the policies of the prior Trump administration that

24
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 6: when you lower taxes for businesses and the American people,

25
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 6: you create more tax revenue, you create more economic activity,

26
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 6: you create more wage growth, particularly for minorities as well,

27
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 6: and you start to get back into winning in terms

28
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 6: of global competitiveness.

29
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 7: We stopped the inversions.

30
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 6: It was absolutely like Boo went from multiple inversion to zero.

31
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 6: Once we move forward with this, and I couldn't be

32
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 6: proud of what we did boldly back during the Trump administration.

33
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 6: We try to fight against during this administration these massive

34
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 6: out of control spending bills that were inflationary, and the

35
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 6: American people suffered greatly with these high levels inflation, higher

36
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 6: mortgage rates, and so forth. And so I'm glad to

37
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 6: have you as our next Secretary of Treasure work with

38
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 6: you to restore sanity back to where we were under

39
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 6: President Trump's congratulation of your nomination, your willing us to serve.

40
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 6: With the expiration coming of these tax rates, were facing

41
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 6: a four point three trillion dollar tax increase if we

42
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 6: don't act this year. As we begin drafting this bill,

43
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 6: and I applaud Chairman Crapo, he brought us together as

44
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 6: ranking member last year prior to getting the majority back,

45
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 6: anticipating we might have this moment, and we started talking

46
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 6: about what what are some key themes that we got

47
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 6: into details over several months of working groups for this

48
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 6: next tax bill to new and protect, preserve the tax rates,

49
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 6: and prevent a fortunion our tax increase. One of the

50
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 6: key words was permanency. Permanency. I've expressed my support for

51
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 6: the use of current policy baseline. I've expressed my support

52
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 6: for permanency because we add uncertainty here in Congress with

53
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 6: expiring tax co provisions. It's time to make them permanent,

54
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 6: to take one additional burden away from the American people

55
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 6: wondering what's going to happen with Congress, whether my tax

56
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 6: rates will depend on what happens in the next election

57
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 6: or what happens in Congress.

58
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: Can act.

59
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 8: Let's take that off.

60
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 2: The table with permanency. My question for two percent is

61
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 2: you said.

62
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 6: We need to grow our way out of our current

63
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 6: economic situation. I couldn't agree more. And that's just the

64
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 6: philosophical divide we face here. Somebody who embrace more of

65
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 6: the supply side idea reduced rates unleash capital of the

66
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 6: end of the free markets and let those markets decide

67
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 6: where then investment relies very a bunch of bureaucrats here

68
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 6: in washing.

69
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 8: With wasteful spending.

70
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 6: How does permanency and certainty of the tax code affect

71
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 6: our ability to grow out of these problems.

72
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 3: Senator Damees, I've enjoyed getting to know you over the

73
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 3: past year they have with your work on the National

74
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,799
Speaker 3: Republican Senate Committee and talking to you in your office,

75
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 3: and also discussing your history in the private sector, both

76
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 3: of the big company and small companies. And that question

77
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 3: like that makes it clear to me that you understand

78
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 3: the incentives, that it is incentives that drive everything in

79
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 3: tax policy. And I can tell you that since November fifth,

80
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 3: for small businesses, we have seen the biggest increase in

81
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 3: optimism since they have been keeping the metrics so certainty.

82
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 8: Small p.

83
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 9: Every day is a battle for your mind, raging information

84
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 9: coming from every angle, but the will to the sea,

85
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 9: I fear not. You found the place for truth, the

86
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 9: voice a generation that still has the will to believe

87
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 9: in the greatest country in the history of the world.

88
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 9: Is to the Charlie Kirk show, TUK a lot here

89
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 9: we go.

00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 10: Okay, everybody, radio stations across the country honored to be

94
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 10: next Secretary of Interior. That is Chuck Grassley. I'm not

95
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 10: sure what hearing that is. I can't actually see what

96
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 10: that is. And then we have a lot of back

97
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 10: and forth going on right now. Let's listen live in

98
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 10: but before we do, I want to welcome you guys

99
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 10: to this broadcast. We will be going live for the

100
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 10: next two hours as we cover all of the confirmation

101
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 10: news live and in real time. President Trump's cabinet is

102
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 10: continuing under the advice and consent of the US Senate

103
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 10: as the team is being assembled. One of the most

104
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 10: important appointments for an incoming president is Treasury Secretary, the

105
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 10: person who's going to help manage the economy and all

106
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 10: of the headwinds. Let's listen to Scott Bessant as he

107
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 10: is taking questions right now. Let's go to Scott Bessant

108
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 10: for Treasury Secretary policy.

109
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 11: They actually extend current tax policy costs excuse me that

110
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 11: you agree that extending current tax policy actually costs money.

111
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 3: Again, I think I don't understand the nuance of that question,

112
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 3: but I will get back.

113
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 2: To you on it. Okay.

114
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 11: I appreciate that you have been supportive of many of

115
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 11: President Trump's tear plans, and I have heard the conversation there,

116
00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 11: so I am not going to go into that, and

117
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 11: we've talked a little bit about it in my office.

118
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 11: But let me jump back to these credits that we're

119
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 11: imposed that some of my colleagues are against, but they

120
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 11: have benefited Nevada, and I want to talk to you

121
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 11: a little bit about it. The forty five X manufacturing

122
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 11: tax credit supports thousands of jobs in the Reno area

123
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 11: and billions in investment across my state. It also is

124
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 11: key to reducing dependence on China for the critical minerals

125
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 11: we need for our military, and supports mining jobs in Nevada.

126
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 11: We are a mining state, we are mining critical minerals,

127
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 11: and so will you commit to opposing any effort to

128
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 11: repeal or reduce the forty five X tax credit, which

129
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 11: is not just a benefit in Nevada, it's a benefit

130
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 11: in other states as well, including Alaska.

131
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 3: So again, Senator, I am unfamiliar with that exact provision,

132
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 3: but I do believe that it is important for us

133
00:07:54,760 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 3: to mine, accumulate and to domestic production for rare earth

134
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 3: and other vital minerals. So I will get back to

135
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 3: you onct my thoughts on that exact program, but a

136
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 3: a atmospheric meta basis, I agree with the direction of travel.

137
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 8: Thank you.

138
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this.

139
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 5: We also talked about this.

140
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 11: President Trump has stated he thinks that the president should

141
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 11: have influence over the decisions of the Federal Reserve, and

142
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 11: we discussed this in my office, and I appreciate that opportunity.

143
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 11: Does it continue to be your view that the Federal

144
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 11: Reserve should be independent of the president.

145
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: Of course, and I actually believe.

146
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 3: That the notion that President Trump police he should have

147
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 3: influence there was I believe a highly inaccurate Wall Street

148
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 3: Journal articles saying that the believed something to the effective

149
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: he should be in the room. President Trump is going

150
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 3: to make his views known, as many senators did. Three senators,

151
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: including two on this committee, called for there was a

152
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 3: jumbo rape cut in September fifty basis points. Two of

153
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 3: the senators on this committee called and I ask my.

154
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 7: Center colleagues the politics on the resides.

155
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 2: I'm asking you, but.

156
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 11: Let me just say, but you don't deviate from our

157
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 11: conversation that you think that there should be independence.

158
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 3: I think on monetary policy decisions, the FLMC should be independent.

159
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 8: Thank you.

160
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 5: I appreciate that.

161
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 11: And then for the benefit of our colleagues, what you're

162
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 11: referring to earlier is in our meeting, I asked you

163
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 11: if there were any regulations treasury regulations that currently exist

164
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 11: that you disagree with, and in response and continuing in

165
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 11: response right now, you're saying you're going to look into

166
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 11: it and get back to me.

167
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 12: Is that right?

168
00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 3: Well, look, I believe as we saw, I don't know

169
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 3: if it's a regulation, but it's a policy. As we

170
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 3: saw from the December a pack by the some Chinese

171
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 3: entities into the Treasury, which very serious that that was

172
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 3: through a work from home software app. So one of

173
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 3: the policies that I support. I intend to be in

174
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 3: the building every day that I am in Washington, and

175
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: I support a return to the office, which is against

176
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 3: the current Treasury.

177
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 11: Policy, right, and I appreciate that. If there are any

178
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 11: others that you oppose and you can share with me.

179
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 11: It doesn't have to be right now, get back to me.

180
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 11: I appreciate that, of.

181
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 2: Course, I'm happy to provide that in writing.

182
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 5: All right, thank you, thank you so much, Thank you, miss.

183
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 13: Chairman, thank you Senator again, mister Best and good to

184
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 13: see you.

185
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,719
Speaker 14: Congratulations again on your nomination. Is hey, let's conversation and

186
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 14: thank you for your willingness to server.

187
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 10: Okay, so that is Scott Bestant right now receiving questions.

188
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 1: I want to listen in on the EPA.

189
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 10: Right now, the Environmental Protection Agency. This is like March madness.

190
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 10: We've got four games going on at once. You got

191
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,439
Speaker 10: the round of sixty four. Very contentious. Let's go to

192
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 10: Lee Zelden on the EPA. I'm not sure the name

193
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 10: of the committee. Let's listen live.

194
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 15: Oil and gas leases and explore for additional production of

195
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 15: oil and gas. The EPA has written one size fits

196
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 15: all solutions. We are not the majors, and we are

197
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 15: stripper whale producers, and I just want your commitment to

198
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 15: work with the industry, these small producers to find right

199
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 15: sized regulations for the circumstances that they're in center.

200
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 16: I would welcome an opportunity to travel to your state

201
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 16: to meet with them, whether it's at your office or elsewhere.

202
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 7: I want to know about all of your priorities.

203
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 16: Including this one, but also to make sure that anyone

204
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 16: who could provide any type of insight that can make

205
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 16: me better informed to make better decisions that I welcome

206
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 16: any of those opportunities for conversations and collaboration.

207
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 15: I think that's a wonderful offer on your part, and

208
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 15: I'm very grateful for it.

209
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 8: I sometimes am reluctant to ask every.

210
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 15: Nominee that comes before me, would you please come visit Kansas?

211
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 8: And you volunteered, so.

212
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 15: I'm appreciated that, and I would tell you I can't

213
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 15: imagine the excitement the opportunity that people in that industry

214
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 15: would see to have the capability of talking to somebody

215
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 15: like you directly in a state like Kansas. So thank you,

216
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 15: and we'll get on your schedule, although you have to

217
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 15: say once confirmed.

218
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 8: So I look forward to that.

219
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 15: In a different vein of energy production, I've created with

220
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 15: my colleague Center Bozeman and others, Sustainable Aviation Fuel Caucus.

221
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 15: Kansas and Wichita in particular, is the air capital.

222
00:12:58,679 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 17: Of the world.

223
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 8: We produce many more general.

224
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 15: Aviation aircraft than anybody. We manufacture with thousands of employees

225
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 15: working in aviation and aerospace, and I want to bring

226
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 15: together the opportunity to bring the agricultural aspects of Kansas

227
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 15: together with the aviation aspects and pursue the development of

228
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 15: staff sustainable aviation fuel. I wanted to know. I guess

229
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 15: the question would be, we need your help in pursuing

230
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 15: the opportunity.

231
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 10: Okay, let's go back to I well told those really

232
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 10: contentious maybe the Democrats are the Republicans seem to just

233
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 10: kind of be going through established order there. So we

234
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 10: have Scott Bessen, we have Dick Durban doing something that

235
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 10: looks like mister Rish from Idaho, and then we have

236
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 10: Senator Moran from Kansas basically talking about how he wants

237
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 10: people to visit Kansas.

238
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 1: Okay, let's go to Z factor.

239
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 10: Z factor is a great support, great supplement. So listen careful.

240
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 10: If you guys want to get a good night's sleep,

241
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 10: go to relief factor dot com. That is relief factor

242
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 10: dot com. We all know how challenging it can be

243
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 10: to get the quality sleep that we need, whether it's

244
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 10: falling asleep or staying asleep.

245
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: So many people are not getting the zs they need.

246
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 10: Z Factor from relief Factor has the formula to help

247
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 10: change that. Z Factor goes beyond melatonin and uses the

248
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 10: combination of four natural ingredients. It helps relax your mind

249
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 10: so you can fall asleep quicker. Then it helps you

250
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 10: so it helps you sleep soundly through the night. Z

251
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 10: Factor is one hundred percent drug free, so it's safe

252
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 10: to take regularly. Plus there's no groggy feeling when you

253
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 10: wake up. Go to relief Factor dot com. That is

254
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 10: Reliefactor dot com. If you're looking for the right formula

255
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 10: for better zs, give Z Factor a try. That is

256
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 10: relief Factor dot com. Reliefactor dot com. Better Sleep without

260
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 10: is underway right now. I'm not sure what nominee Dick

261
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 10: Durbin is grilling. Maybe it's a representative. Is this a

262
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 10: Pambondi thing? Not exactly sure what's going on there right now.

263
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 10: That's Lee's Elden taking questions, Scott Bessen taking questions. Pam

264
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 10: was not there since she had someone set on our behalf.

265
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 10: How does that work exactly? I don't understand. So they

266
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 10: take questions on behalf of PAM. I didn't even know

270
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 10: ongoing as Trump's cabinet is getting put together. Looks as

271
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 10: if the Bondie hearing is a journey as a Chuck

272
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:58,479
Speaker 10: Grassily is swearing some people in, We'll be right back everybody.

273
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 14: Application of tariffs, a skilled negotiator might sometimes use broad

274
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 14: tariffs to gain leverage, and then in other cases a

275
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 14: more sector specific approach could be effective. So what criteria

276
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 14: or perhaps benchmarks would you use to inform your decision

277
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 14: to go with across the board measures or more surgical tariffs?

278
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 2: In do you believe there should be any building.

279
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 14: Caps or triggers to prevent an unintended escalation?

280
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 3: So synerion, I haven't been confirmed yet President Trump isn't

281
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 3: in office, but I would imagine that the American people

282
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 3: should think about tariffs in three ways under the Trump administration.

283
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 3: One will be for remedying unfair trade practices either by

284
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 3: industry or country, all the Chinese tariffs they steal. Two

285
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 3: maybe for a more generalized tariff as a revenue raiser

286
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 3: for the federal budget. And three President Trump, I think

287
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 3: has added a third use of tariffs, as you said,

288
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 3: as a skilled negotiator to he believes that we've probably

289
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 3: gotten over our skis of it on sanctions, and that

290
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 3: sanctions may be driving countries out of the use of

291
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 3: the US dollars.

292
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 2: So the terraffs can be used.

293
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 3: For negotiations, whether it's for Mexico on the fentanyl crisis.

294
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 2: So you know, I.

295
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 3: Think you and the American people should think about those

296
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 3: three broad categories.

297
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 2: Thank you.

298
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 13: We need to move on. And next is Senator Sanders.

299
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 13: Senator Sanders, I don't believe you were here when I

300
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 13: welcomed everyone to the committee this morning, but as a

301
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 13: new member of the committee, I personally welcome you and

302
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 13: look forward to working with you.

303
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, and it's a pleasure to be here.

304
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 18: Mister Beston, thanks very much for being in the office

305
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:16,479
Speaker 18: the other day. Mister Besant, the United States today has

306
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 18: more income and wealth inequality, and as ever existed in

307
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 18: the history of our country.

308
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 2: You got three.

309
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 18: People on top, mister Bezos and mister Zuckerberg, who are

310
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 18: now worth almost a trillion dollars.

311
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 2: That is more than half of.

312
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 18: The bottom of our society, some one hundred and seventy

313
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,959
Speaker 18: million people. Three people more wealth in the bottom one

314
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 18: hundred and seventy million. We have more concentration of ownership

315
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 18: today than we have ever had. We have more concentration

316
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 18: of ownership in the media. We're a handful of billionaires

317
00:18:54,960 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 18: like Musk, Bezos, huperd Murdock increasingly own and the information

318
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 18: that the American people receive. We have a corrupt campaign

319
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 18: finance system in which a small number of billionaires in

320
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 18: both political parties make huge contributions into the presidential and

321
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 18: congressional campaigns.

322
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 2: When you have a small.

323
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 18: Number of multi billionaires who have enormous economic, media.

324
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,199
Speaker 2: And political power.

325
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 18: Would you agree with President Biden who last night stated,

326
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 18: and I quote and oligachy is taking shape in America

327
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 18: of extreme wealth, power and influence that threatens our entire democracy,

328
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 18: our basic rights and freedom center of quote. That's what

329
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 18: President Biden said last night. I agree with him.

330
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 2: Few Senator Sanders I enjoyed her visit, you can talk

331
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 2: a little bit closer than Michael.

332
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 3: I enjoyed her visit, and I hope you've got my

333
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 3: follow up materials that we've owned, the discussions, my predicious

334
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 3: stings on the Terras and China and with the three

335
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 3: billionaires who you listed that.

336
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 19: All made the money.

337
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 10: Okay, let's go right, and this is good stuff, Bernie

338
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 10: Sanders and Scott Besson.

339
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: This is really good TV.

340
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 18: Let's watch people only more wealth from the bottom half

341
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 18: of American society, when these people have enormous influence over

342
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 18: the media, when they spend huge amounts of money in

343
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 18: both political parties to elect candidates. But Biden said last nighters,

344
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 18: we're moving toward an olagaugy. I'm asking you that question.

345
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 18: Do you think forget how they made their money. Do

346
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 18: you think that when so few people have so much

347
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,719
Speaker 18: wealth and so much economic political power, that is an

348
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 18: oligockic form of society?

349
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 3: Well, I wouldn't note that the President Biden gave the

350
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 3: Presidential Medal of Freedom to two people who I think

351
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 3: would qualify for his oligarchs.

352
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 18: So this is not a condemination of any one individual.

353
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 2: I'm just asking you, with so few people have so

354
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 2: much wealth and power.

355
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 18: But do you think that that is an Oligothic form

356
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 18: of society?

357
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 2: Senator?

358
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 3: I think it depends on the ability to move up

359
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 3: and down the and no.

360
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: That's not really dance.

361
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 18: I mean even if you had that mobility, no matter

362
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 18: who those individuals might be. All right, But let me

363
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 18: ask you another question. Right now, in America, we have

364
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 18: over twenty two million workers who are making less than

365
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,719
Speaker 18: fifteen dollars an hour, and nearly forty million people in

366
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 18: our country earning less than seventeen dollar dollars an hour. Shamefully,

367
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 18: the federal minimum wage, despite the epis of myself and

368
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 18: other people here, have not been raised since two thousand

369
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 18: and nine and remains an unbelievable seven dollars and twenty

370
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 18: five cents an hour. Will you work with those of

371
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 18: us who want to raise the federal minimum wage to

372
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 18: a living wage to take millions of Americans.

373
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:24,360
Speaker 2: Out of poverty?

374
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 3: Senator, I believe that the minimum wage is more of

375
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 3: a statewide and regional issue.

376
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 18: So you don't think we should change the federal minimum

377
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 18: wage of seven dollars and twenty five cents an hour, No, sir, okay,

378
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 18: it's investment millions of working class Americans who are struggling

379
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 18: to keep their heads above water are paying outrageously.

380
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 2: High interest rates on their credit cards.

381
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 18: Over half the American people who take out new credit

382
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 18: cards are being charged interest rates of over twenty.

383
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 2: Four twenty four percent.

384
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 18: During his campaign, President elect Trump promised that he was

385
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 18: going to cap credit card.

386
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 2: Interest rates at ten percent.

387
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 18: I happen to think that that is a very good idea,

388
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 18: and I will soon be introducing legislation to do just that.

389
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:16,239
Speaker 18: Will you, as if you are confirmed, be supportive of

390
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 18: what President elect Trump said and what I want to

391
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 18: see happen, and that is the cap credit card interest

392
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 18: rates at ten Percenttor Senator, I think we can both agree.

393
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 3: That credit card many credit card companies have been bad

394
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 3: actors they throughout history.

395
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 2: And I will get back to you once my very

396
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 2: simple question.

397
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 18: Trump said he wants the cap credit card interest rates

398
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 18: at ten percent.

399
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:43,360
Speaker 2: I agree with him.

400
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 18: Will be You'll be supportive of what Trump and I

401
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 18: would like to.

402
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 3: Do when President Trump takes office, and if I am confirmed,

403
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 3: I will follow what.

404
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 2: President Trump wants to do. Thank you very much, mister Chentleman,

405
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 2: Thank you very much.

406
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 17: Next to Senator Smith, thank you very much.

407
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 10: Okay, let's come back here for just a second here, guys,

408
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 10: as we are split into those three, I think we

409
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 10: have screen four screens now. So what's going on in

410
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 10: the Pambondi hearing is that people are testifying pro and

411
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,959
Speaker 10: con on her behalf. We have the Leezelden situation going on.

412
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 10: That's Shelley Moore capito. We have the Governor Burgham situation.

413
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 10: And let me just tell you the difference of worldview

414
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 10: between Bernie Sanders and Scott Besson. Bernie Sanders is correct,

415
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 10: we are getting closer and closer to an oligarchy. We've

416
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 10: been saying that on this program for quite some time.

417
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 10: But it's not the type of oligarchy that he thinks.

418
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 10: It's an oligarchy of people that have centralized government type

419
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 10: control with corporate friendly power on the outside. And we

420
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 10: see this kind of inside out relationship. And the difference

421
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 10: between Bernie Sanders and Scott Besson is Bernie Sanders believes

422
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 10: in a fixed pie theory that just because somebody gets rich,

423
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 10: he thinks somebody gets poor. And Bernie Sanders is grilling

424
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 10: Scott Besson saying, should we not be able to take

425
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 10: this wealth away, but you can always make the pie bigger.

426
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 10: The thing about a market is market's work, and that

427
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 10: people get richer simultaneously through voluntary transaction, through the price system,

428
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 10: through the profit motive, the ability to make and take

429
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 10: risks in a market economy. And we know what the

430
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 10: horrors of socialism have done for so many people. Email

431

Speaker 10: us Freedom at Charliekirk dot com and I will add

432
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 10: to one more thing. We are going to kind of

433
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 10: go through Joe Biden's farewell address last evening that he

434
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 10: gave were very interestingly, if Joe Biden the Democrats would

435
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 10: have actually mentioned this rising fixture and consolidation of wealth,

436
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 10: it would have been a much easier political strategy for

437
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 10: them than whatever they ran on this last year.

438
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: But Scott Best and I thought.

439
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 10: Handled that beautifully and masterfully against mister Bernie Sanders, who

440
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 10: he does not care about the poor, he hates the rich,

441
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 10: and those are two very very different things. Email us

Speaker 16: where there will be opportunities for the EPA to follow

472
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 16: its obligations under the law. There's a possibility that Congress

473
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 16: might choose to make changes to the law on items

474
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 16: that are under EPA jurisdiction. I would look forward to

475
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 16: doing my part to make sure that the EPA is

476
00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 16: not holding up any opportunities to be able to pursue

477
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,640
Speaker 16: sound applications that otherwise would be and should be approved.

478
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 4: I think a lot of times in the public domain,

479
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 4: permitting reform means to certain people skirting the rules or

480
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 4: breezing through environmental reviews without really taking them seriously or

481
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 4: actually having them science based. As we've talked a lot

482
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 4: about today. That's not what permitting reform means. Permitting reforms

483
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:31,719
Speaker 4: means make these these environmental clean air, clean water rules

484
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 4: and others and other agencies work together and work so

485
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 4: that we are getting the right result of clean air,

486
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 4: clean water. But we're able to move forward, and so

487
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 4: I look forward to that. Here's another West Virginia issue

488
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 4: very quickly, and it's the Muddy Creek restoration project. It's

489
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 4: nineteen miles of waterways that has acid mind drainage, and

490
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 4: West Virginia went about, with coordination with the past Trump administration,

491
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 4: was initially championed by the Biden administration to deliver results

492
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 4: in cleaning up this area of our state.

493
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 17: It was a true win win.

494
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 4: The Biden administration, for some reason which we can't figure out,

495
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 4: flip flopped on this and they started putting more burdensome

496
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 4: costly in a much much slower clean up process. So

497
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 4: you're still having your ascid my drainage while we're getting

498
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 4: hung up here. It threatens projects like Muddy Creek and

499
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 4: discourages other communities from pursuing similar efforts to achieve real

500
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 4: environmental remediation and benefits. Will you commit to me working

501
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 4: with me in the state to try to reverse these

502
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 4: counterproductive changes and cut the red tape and restore this

503
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 4: for more cost effectic but also better environmental results.

504
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 16: Yes, Chairman Capital, I know how much of a priority

505
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 16: this is. You've been outspoken on this issue. It's my

506
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 16: commitment to work with you as soon as if confirmed,

507
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 16: as as soon as I'm in that position, I'd welcome

508
00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 16: that opportunity.

509
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 7: Thank you, Center, White House, Thank you again.

510
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 21: Chairman, mister Zell, and I have something of a life

511
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 21: experience PhD in fossil fuel pressure politics, and they'll be

512
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 21: coming after you hard, and they'll be feeling very entitled

513
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 21: based on their political spending toward a Trump victory.

514
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 2: I have two questions when you're faced with that.

515
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 21: The first is that prominent voices in Trump world have

516
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 21: been saying that it is important to traumatize EPA's workforce

517
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 21: to drive them out.

518
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 2: They've been saying that it's.

519
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 21: Important to cut EPA's workforce by two thirds or more,

520
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 21: not just Washington, but the field entire organization.

521
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 2: And they've been saying that it's important.

522
00:30:52,240 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 21: To destroy the professional civil service protections of EPA's work force.

523
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 2: How do you respond to those three threats?

524
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 7: Center or White House.

525
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 16: As I've stated earlier, my desire, if confirmed as EPA administrator,

526
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 16: is to increase productivity of the EPA. I want to

527
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 16: be able to help lead this agency in a way

528
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 16: that all of you on both sides of the aisle

529
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 16: can be proud of.

530
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 7: For us to be accountable and transparent.

531
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 16: I want maximum collaboration, not just with Congress, but internally

532
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 16: within the EPA. I've been hugely impressed with the level

533
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 16: of talent stepping up to serve at EPA, and that

534
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 16: is the pressure that I am feeling at this moment,

535
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 16: is to bring out the best of EPA to make

536
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 16: sure that we are fulfilling our mission of protecting public

537
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 16: health and the environment.

538
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 9: Letting everyone out as a book sucks the Jarley Kirk Show.

539
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 1: Okay, everybody, welcome back.

540
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,040

Speaker 10: For Hillsdale dot com Charlie four Hillsdale dot com. I

563
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 10: have a lot to add here. Let's go to Senator Wyden,

564
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 10: who I think is asking Bess in a question. Let's

565
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 10: listen in to Senator Widen from Oregon.

566
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 6: TAMAS twenty fourteen Spenning levels.

567
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 14: It would be six point two trillion dollars, the one

568
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 14: I like the best.

569
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 2: So I think it's we listen to MS. He's over.

570
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 10: Brasso has his life in our home States. Let's actually

571
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 10: go to Sheldon Whitehouse while asking Lee Helvin.

572
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 3: Questionship at the Department of India, a very significant player

573
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 3: in the fossil fuel funded climate denial Armada.

574
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 21: The successor to that Texas Public Policy Foundation CEO, and

575
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 21: a third individual called the chief of intelligence and research

576
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 21: at that same in my view, Climate Denial Front group.

577
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 21: In your political work, you've taken nearly three hundred thousand

578
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,359
Speaker 21: dollars from the oil and gas industry back to two

579
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 21: thousand and seven. You've had large campaign support from Coke Incorporated,

580
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 21: which gave a total of about sixty thousand dollars when

581
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 21: you count up all the contributions to packs and campaign funds.

582
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 21: David Coke himself maxed out to you, and Coke Pack

583
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 21: gave twenty thousand dollars to your Lee Pack. In the

584
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 21: wake of being so surrounded with so much corporate and

585
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 21: fossil fuel.

586
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 2: Influence, I want to give you two opportunities.

587
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,879
Speaker 21: One is to answer to me, now, how is it

588
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 21: that you'll be able to separate yourself from the influence

589
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 21: of these people in these interests when they come demanding

590
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 21: things that they think they've earned politically. And I'll also

591
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 21: turn that into QFR so that you can, with a

592
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 21: little bit more basis for reflection, make a more complete answer.

593
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,399
Speaker 2: So with that over to you for your responsor.

594
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 16: Senator, I don't need any extra time for reflection.

595
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:11,879
Speaker 8: On that one.

596
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,400
Speaker 16: There is no person who has ever provided any level

597
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 16: of support to me or anyone else who has any

598
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 16: special influence with me. When I was in the Army,

599
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,760
Speaker 16: I wore around my dog tags the seven Army values.

600
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 16: The acronym is leadership, loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity,

601
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 16: and personal courage. It is important for me to have

602
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 16: always been able to approach this position with a clear

603
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,280
Speaker 16: conscience to make decisions that I can live.

604
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 7: With for my entire life.

605
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 16: There is no dollar, large or small that can influence

606
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 16: the decisions that I make. Who has access to me

607
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:51,280
Speaker 16: and how I am ruling in my obligations under the law. Senator,

608
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 16: I'm happy to enthusiastically answer that question on any day

609
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 16: on the spot, and I would never need any extra

610
00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 16: amount of time of reflection.

611
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 2: Well, good luck stand up to these guys, because they're

612
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 2: going to come at you.

613
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 17: Thank you.

614
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 7: I understand that.

615
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,720
Speaker 4: Five minute break would be in your our best interest.

616
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,320
Speaker 17: Would you like to do that now you want to

617
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 17: keep going? I'll take five, I guess, thank you. So okay,

618
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 17: thanks Jeremy.

619
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 10: Let's let's throw back here as the Great lee Zelden

620
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 10: takes a five minute break. Scott Bessen is continuing as

621
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 10: we are here with January madness. As the cabinet is

622
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 10: being assembled, Lee Zelden is interviewing to become the EPA chief,

623
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 10: which is the Employment Prevention Agency. I'm kidding Environmental Protection Agency.

624
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 10: There are more nonsensical regulations that come from EPA than

625
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 10: almost any other agency. You would think you have Doug

626
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 10: Bergham there for Interior, yesterday was Chris Wright. You would

627
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,560
Speaker 10: think that Chris Wright being in charge of energy actually

628
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 10: as the most with oil, natural gas and fossil fuel production.

629
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 1: It's not.

630
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 10: It's actually Interior and EPA, EPA especially that oversee is

631
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 10: that the most. Let's go to Scott Besson here, who

632
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 10: is currently being asked a question from a senator. I

633
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 10: do not know the name of Scott Beston, who is

634
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 10: going to be managing the economy and whatever comes next.

635
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: Let's listen to that.

636
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 4: Let's listen it dollars worth of goods out of our

637
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 4: state versus importing one billion dollars.

638
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 8: But this is a big part.

639
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 2: Of it, and so the in the aviation sector.

640
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,720
Speaker 4: I think I sent you an article about the fact

641
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 4: that we think increasing our manufacturing.

642
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 22: Innovation to continue.

643
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 4: To have markets and sell to those markets is a

644
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:39,399
Speaker 4: good economic strategy.

645
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 3: Senator Cantwell, as I discussed in your office that in

646
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 3: my hometown of Charleston, South Carolina, Boeing is also the largest.

647
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 2: Employer, So I view aviation is very important.

648
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 17: Great.

649
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 4: So now I want to this is and believe me,

650
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 4: I would have the same conversation with Joe Biden or

651
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 4: Barack Obama or whoever. So I want to focus on innovation,

652
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 4: not the tariffs. I'm worried that the tariffs are going

653
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 4: to increase supply chain products, They're going to increase prices

654
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 4: on our farmers, They're going to increase prices on Americans.

655
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 4: And so I want to ask you, what do you

656
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 4: don't you think we are in an environment where exporting

657
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 4: products and growing markets outside the United States is a

658
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 4: big economic opportunity.

659
00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 22: And what are you going to do to build.

660
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 4: Coalitions to help us be able to achieve opening up

661
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:43,360
Speaker 4: those markets as opposed to just the retaliatory tariff environment

662
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 4: which may raise cost on Americans and not resolve these issues.

663
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 3: It's a Senator Campbell, thank you for that. And after

664
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 3: our discussion in your office, I actually went back and

665
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 3: looked at some older data two thousand in terms of

666
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 3: the labor share of aggregate income in the US sixty

667
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 3: nine percent the crew to labor today that number is

668
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,799
Speaker 3: sixty and you could see a sharp drop after what

669
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 3: is called the China shock. So I agree with you

670
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:27,280
Speaker 3: that opening markets is good, but the free trade must

671
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 3: be also balanced against fair trade. And clearly what has

672
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 3: happened is the trade has not been fair. That has

673
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:40,280
Speaker 3: fallen on the American workers, and we cannot allow. As

674
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 3: I think I mentioned to you, China is the most

675
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 3: imbalanced unbalanced economy.

676
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 2: In the history of the world.

677
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 3: They are in a severe recession slash depression. They may

678
00:39:52,400 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 3: have minus four percent disinflation, and they are attempting to

679
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 3: export their way out of that, as opposed to doing

680
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 3: the much needed internal rebalance. So I am with you

681
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 3: on the need to open markets, but we cannot allow

682
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 3: a player like this via.

683
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 2: To flood our markets or to flood the world.

684
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 4: Well, but I'm saying I believe in coalitions. We discussed

685
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 4: to technology NATO. I think you thought that was a

686
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 4: good idea the notion though, I mean, I can get

687
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,760
Speaker 4: upset with my colleagues on the other aisle all the time.

688
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,240
Speaker 7: And object, but that doesn't move me forward.

689
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 4: And so I hope that you will look at what

690
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 4: we're going to do to build allies. I mean, these

691
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 4: numbers that basically are talking about just the tariff and

692
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 4: what it would do to the device of gasoline given

693
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 4: Canada is concerning. And so I want to know that

694
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 4: the Trump administration is going to focus as much on

695
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 4: innovating our way to success as we are on the tariffs,

696
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 4: because I do think we're going to see retalitary turiffs.

697
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 8: We saw them in our state.

698
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: Okay, let's comet us in our agriculture.

699
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 10: That is Senator Maria Cantwell from Washington asking about tariffs.

700
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 10: Let me tell you why does she really care about tariffs?

701
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 7: I no, don't No.

702
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 10: She is a proxy for Boeing, one of the biggest,

703
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 10: most inefficient companies in America that has not made a

704
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 10: good airplane for twenty years. By the way, of course,

705
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 10: Boeing is headquartered in Seattle, Washington. Used to actually have

706
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 10: its corporate headquarters in Chicago, or at least a very

707
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 10: big office in Chicago. I'm not exactly sure where they're headquartered.

708
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,759
Speaker 10: It doesn't matter. The point is their biggest base of

709
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,440
Speaker 10: operation is in Seattle, Washington, and then she has a

710
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 10: proxy for Boeing. She is very worried that Boeing is

711
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 10: no longer going to be able to get cheap Chinese

712
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 10: parts to be able to build There's seven eighty seven

713
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 10: maxes that fall out of the sky and can't land correctly.

714
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 10: So that's why she's asking that question. Let's now go

715
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 10: to Governor Bergham, who wants to become Secretary Interior.

716
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 1: You do a great job at this.

717
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 10: By the way, of all the jobs in the federal government,

718
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 10: that is one of the few that I would love.

719
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 10: I would love to be the Secretary of Interior. See

720
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 10: why would you want to? I love nature, I love

721
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 10: the national parks. All right, let's go to Governor Burgham.

722
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:10,279
Speaker 10: Let's listen in.

723
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 23: Our nation's progress. And so I agree with you clearly.

724
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 23: And you mentioned the New York Times. If that article

725
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,839
Speaker 23: was someplace else, you know, But the fact that the

726
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 23: New York Times wrote that article I found also be

727
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:26,919
Speaker 23: remarkable in mission admission of at least one case where

728
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 23: there was the use of the Endangered Species Act relative

729
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 23: to it's intended you, So yes, you can count thank you.

730
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 24: I appreciate that because also I think not in light

731
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 24: just to this public admission, but also the West Virginia

732
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 24: case and the Lower bridecase, there could be legal infirmity

733
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 24: and a lot of our federal bureaucracy's past decisions. So

734
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 24: I appreciate your willingness to take a look at that

735
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 24: once you're on the job.

736
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 12: Thank you very much. That concludes Round one. We're going

737
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 12: to do a quick round two with some follow ups

738
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,520
Speaker 12: that a few members have asked. I talk to you

739
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 12: briefly about the fact that public lands represent a massive

740
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 12: public asset, and yet a lack of an accurate valuation

741
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,240
Speaker 12: is something that we don't have and that underminds informed

742
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:19,280
Speaker 12: decision making about their use and their management. What steps

743
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 12: would you take, if confirmed as secretary to improve the

744
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 12: transparency in this area and ensure federal land valuations reflect

745
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:28,880
Speaker 12: their value to the American people.

746
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 23: Well, I would just say on this idea that what

747
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:37,239
Speaker 23: I'll call America's balance sheet is something that the Trump

748
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 23: administration has quite a bit of enthusiasm and discussions with

749
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 23: the Treasury nominee Scott Bessant, Commerce nominee Howard Ludnik, and

750
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 23: even Speaker Mike Johnson called me a few weeks ago

751
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 23: and said, Hey, what's what's this American balance sheet idea?

752
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,360
Speaker 23: I mean, I think for our standing in the world,

753
00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 23: for us to you know, talk no unstop about what

754
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 23: our liabilities are, we should also be here.

755

783
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:39,440
Speaker 1: We have the EPA.

784
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 10: They're talking about something with Alaska, Doug Burgham and people

785
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:49,240
Speaker 10: testifying on behalf of Pambondy. Subscribe to our podcast January Madness.

786
00:45:48,840 --> 00:46:08,279
Speaker 17: Continues hundreds of millions of offshore.

787
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:14,239
Speaker 23: Sub service out of leasing, and that's viewed as a

788
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,319
Speaker 23: costless event. At least we could have the trade off

789
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 23: of say yes, it was some people thought it was

790
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 23: important to take that off.

791
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 17: Of the table. But what did it mean for the

792
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 17: American people?

793
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 23: Did we just take trillions of dollars of future revenue

794
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 23: out of the pockets of our future generations? And so

795
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:34,439
Speaker 23: I think again, creating a financial understanding that is where

796
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 23: we can have an honest discussion about some of these

797
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 23: executive actions that are happening at the end of the

798
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 23: end of this term, for example, would be useful for

799
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 23: all Americans to understand.

800
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 2: Thank you, I appreciate that.

801
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 12: I've got another question that I was going to ask

802
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 12: regarding pills. In the interest of time, I'm before goo

803
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:51,960
Speaker 12: that I'll just conlod it with a very brief statement.

804
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 2: Pills came in a lieu of taxes.

805
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,280
Speaker 12: Bettergument came up with that Congress came up with about

806
00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 12: fifty years ago to help offset the burden state carry

807
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 12: states with a lot of public land because they don't

808
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:04,840
Speaker 12: receive any privaty tax revenue from US, so it's supposed

809
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 12: to offset that. In some parts of the country where

810
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 12: there's a lot of public land, this works out okay.

811
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 12: In other parts it's pennies on the dollar compared to

812
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 12: what they would get if they could tax the land

813
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 12: even at its.

814
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,480
Speaker 2: Lowest evaluation and lowest rate.

815
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 12: So I would love to talk to you about pilled

816
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 12: reforms and making pills generally a priority because a lot

817
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 12: of these communities rely on it for fire search.

818
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 2: And rescue, schools, safety, so forth.

819
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 12: Senator Heinrich, Governor Senator Danes mentioned a very specific challenge

820
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 12: with the Endangered Species Act, But as a governor, you

821
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 12: know that one of the best ways to head off

822
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:46,800
Speaker 12: those conflicts is to prevent species from ever being listed

823
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:52,800
Speaker 12: by recovering them through proactive voluntary conservation at the state level.

824
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 8: Senator till Us.

825
00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 25: And nine of his Republican colleagues and I have a

826
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 25: highly bipartisan build called the Recovering America's Wildlife Act that

827
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:08,360
Speaker 25: helps states do exactly that, And in fact, North Dakota's

828
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 25: former Game and Fish Director, Terry.

829
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 26: Steinwand, was one of the architects of that legislation. It's

830
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 26: got strong support from the Association Efficient Wildlife Agencies, from

831
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:24,359
Speaker 26: many of the conservation groups that you mentioned in your exchange.

832
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 2: With Senator Justice.

833
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:29,360
Speaker 12: Does that sound like the kind of approach that you

834
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 12: could work with.

835
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 8: Senator Tellis and ie.

836
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,479
Speaker 17: On absolutely Senator Heinrich. I think that.

837
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 23: Again super sound principle there, which is to do the

838
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 23: work to keep it off of any kind of federal designation.

839
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 17: Working collaborative with the states.

840
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 23: I had the pleasure of working with our Game and

841
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,399
Speaker 23: Fish Commissioner Terry Steinwand for six of my.

842
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 17: Eight years as governor.

843
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 23: He had almost a forty year career in wildlife management.

844
00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,360
Speaker 23: It's people like that that I know in respect across

845
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 23: all the states.

846
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,759
Speaker 17: I know you've got him in New Mexico. I know

847
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:03,280
Speaker 17: we've got him in Utah.

848
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:07,399
Speaker 23: I mean, I have the people that work in game

849
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 23: and fish at the state level that are working on

850
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 23: these things. I just I haven't met somebody from the

851
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:13,879
Speaker 23: federal level that flies.

852
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:14,800
Speaker 17: In the North Dakota the carriage.

853
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 23: More about the soil's, the wildlife and the people who

854
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 23: we have.

855
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 5: Okay, everybody, welcome.

856
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 10: Back to Emails Freedom at Charlie Kirk dot com and

857

Speaker 10: subscribe to our podcast.

858
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:35,400
Speaker 1: The hearings are ongoing.

859
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:37,120
Speaker 10: Couple thoughts I want to make here, the first of

860
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 10: which is that the pace at which the Senate is

861
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:47,239
Speaker 10: operating here is remarkable, and the Democrats seem to lack

862
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 10: a little bit of spunk I mean, they're going through

863
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,719
Speaker 10: the motions, but this is not the type of resistance

864
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 10: that we saw in twenty seventeen. It is very clear

865
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 10: that President Trump has a mandate, he won the popular vote,

866
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 10: and the resistance this is kind of shrugging their shoulders.

867
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 10: They look fatigued, they look tired, and it is a

868
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 10: confirmation blitz krieg that is ongoing right now. This is

869
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:18,479
Speaker 10: a very powerful indicator, harbinger, a canary in the coal

870
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,840
Speaker 10: mine for the type of pace that this administration is

871
00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 10: going to operate with. It is conceivable that we're going

872
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:25,560
Speaker 10: to have a Treasury secretary in a week. We're gonna

873
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 10: have Pete Hegseth as DoD secretary, a week, we're gonna

874
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:30,479
Speaker 10: have an Attorney general a week. That is way ahead

875
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 10: of schedule that we saw in twenty seventeen, far ahead

876
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 10: of where we were. Let's listen live in of Scott Bessen,

877
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 10: who is answering questions from some Senate Democrat.

878
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 1: Let's listen to that.

879
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 3: The bad actors, especially Iran, I think I'm right, maybe

880
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 3: not in the exact numbers, but in order of magnitude,

881
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 3: I believe Iran was down to one hundred thousand barrels

882
00:50:55,680 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 3: of oil exports when President Trump left office. I believe

883
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:04,319
Speaker 3: that they are now exporting an excess or approximately one

884
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 3: point seven million. So through sanctions policy, I believe that

885
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 3: we can again, as I like to say, make a

886
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 3: Ran poor again, not the Iranian people, the Iranian the government.

887
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:24,800
Speaker 3: And then at the same time they have our domestic

888
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:29,239
Speaker 3: producers puts that up with the highest energy standards.

889
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 2: In the world. We're the best produce. We do it,

890
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 2: We're the best stewards of the land. And I agree.

891
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:34,560
Speaker 2: And what we've also.

892
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 27: Seen, as you mentioned, with the Iran increasing the sales

893
00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 27: or selling it to China. China is buying it a discount,

894
00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 27: so they're getting cheap energy. Iran is getting tanker loads

895
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 27: of cash back essentially, and that's what they're using that

896
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 27: money for terrorism. So in terms of our own national security,

897
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,239
Speaker 27: one last question in my time remaining, and this has

898
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 27: to do with the Test Custs in Jobs Act that

899
00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 27: we passed at twenty seventeen. If that were to expire,

900
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 27: we're talking about a massive tax hike of over four

901
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 27: trillion dollars. What would that kind of a tax hike

902
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 27: mean for small businesses, for job creators as well as

903
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 27: our global competitivenessess. All of a sudden we put the

904
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,360
Speaker 27: heavy wet blanket of a four trillion dollar tax increase

905
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:14,919
Speaker 27: on our nation.

906
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 3: Senator, I think it would be devastating, that is, especially

907
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:24,360
Speaker 3: for small businesses. One of the things that as someone

908
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 3: who came from a very small town, lived in New

909
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,960
Speaker 3: York with a very big town, and came back to

910
00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 3: a small town. I believe Wall Street has done great

911
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,720
Speaker 3: the past few years, and that Main Street has suffered.

912
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:39,720
Speaker 2: I think it's Main Street's time.

913
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:43,960
Speaker 3: Wall Street can continue to do well, maybe not as well,

914
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 3: and it's time to have a main street small business

915
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 3: led recovery, led by small banks.

916
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 10: Regional bank cut out here. This is very important what

917
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:58,080
Speaker 10: Scott Buston is saying. He's talking about another blue collar boom.

918
00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:01,279
Speaker 10: Wall Street has done extraordinary well. Home ownership is out

919
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:04,240
Speaker 10: of grass for most Americans. The average home went from

920
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,920
Speaker 10: about seventy five thousand dollars a year income that you

921
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 10: could afford to now over one hundred and forty thousand

922
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 10: dollars a year it requires to own a home in

923
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,480
Speaker 10: this country, and we have seen it more and more

924
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:16,920
Speaker 10: out of grasp in these last couple of years. It

925
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:20,760
Speaker 10: is time for a muscular class renaissance, for a everyday

926
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 10: American Golden Era.

927
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:25,920
Speaker 1: Look, we've been demoralized for years.

928
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,239
Speaker 10: This is very similar to watching a football game and

929
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,919
Speaker 10: there's like this big interception that just galvanized the team

930
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,759
Speaker 10: and sparks a change in momentum. You can sense that

931
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,680
Speaker 10: now it's the Democrats who are getting demoralized. They've lost

932
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 10: their spunk, they've lost their spirit, and we are seeing the.

933
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: Momentum build and build.

934
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,280
Speaker 10: And what Scott Bessett was talking about there was incredibly

935
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,359
Speaker 10: important that when President Trump was president, it was the

936
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 10: lower income earners that saw their incomes go up most

937
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:56,239
Speaker 10: dramatically versus these last four years, not the people the

938
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 10: top one percent not to be able the top of

939
00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:02,360
Speaker 10: the income ladder. They're right there as Senator Ricketts, Senator Tillis,

940
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:05,359
Speaker 10: I think that's Angus King asking.

941
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:06,440
Speaker 1: Questions of Scott Bessant.

942
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,960

943
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:14,600

Speaker 10: thunder time and hit the ground running in a way

Speaker 20: Stay right there, Welcome back to this Real America's Voice

960
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:22,760
Speaker 20: news break.

961
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 2: I'm Terrence Bates.

962
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,880
Speaker 20: It is New Year's Resolution time, which means many of

963
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 20: you are turning the corner into the new year and

964
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:30,480
Speaker 20: focusing on your health.

965
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:34,040
Speaker 7: For some, it's going to be a short lived endeavor, others.

966
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 2: Will make some lasting changes.

967
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,279
Speaker 20: On one hand, many of you will focus exclusively on

968
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:41,360
Speaker 20: eating healthy and working out, and then they are the

969
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:45,120
Speaker 20: ever popular health supplements that millions of Americans resort to.

970
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,359
Speaker 20: Doctor Halley Lucille joins me on behalf of Pure Health

971
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 20: Research to talk about what to look for in the

972
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:52,760
Speaker 20: various health supplements out there on the market.

973
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 18: Doc.

974
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:53,840
Speaker 2: Always good to see you.

975
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,879
Speaker 28: Happy New Year, Terrence, thank you so much, Happy new year,

976
00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,719
Speaker 28: so happy to be here. And yes, it is that

977
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 28: same slogan every year, New year, new you.

978
00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 22: We can only hope as much.

979
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:06,439
Speaker 2: Absolutely.

980
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 20: Unfortunately I'm starting this new year and it's the same me.

981
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,759
Speaker 20: But we still have three hundred and sixty three more

982
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:15,240
Speaker 20: days left, so hopefully I can change some things.

983
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,840
Speaker 22: I think, talk about what's wrong with the old you.

984
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 28: We're okay, We just you know, there's a lot going on,

985
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 28: and we just went through a lot, you know, I

986
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 28: always say.

987
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:25,400
Speaker 22: And it's interesting.

988
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 28: This time of the year from a nature perspective, is

989
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:33,360
Speaker 28: really contractive, right, you're supposed to hibernate. It's darker, longer,

990
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:38,080
Speaker 28: and during the holiday season, like socially and culturally, we're

991
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 28: sort of forced to go out and be more expansive

992
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 28: and imbibe in more alcohol and more sugar and more

993
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 28: sweet treats and such like that.

994
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 22: And so it is January is notorious.

995
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:54,239
Speaker 28: And actually January comes from the root where janitor, which

996
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:58,279
Speaker 28: means to open, right, it's opening a new door, and

997
00:56:58,360 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 28: that's what January is all about.

998
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:02,839
Speaker 20: You know, we were joking in the break, and we

999
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:04,640
Speaker 20: were talking about the fact that we need a break

1000
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 20: from the holidays just to kind of recover, and our

1001
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 20: bodies probably similar to need the same thing because I

1002
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 20: think most of us eight things that we probably shouldn't

1003
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 20: have and we probably overindulged.

1004
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 28: Yes, so the liver is taking the burden, and that's

1005
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:21,640
Speaker 28: where the liver health formula from pure health research comes in.

1006
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,400
Speaker 22: We've talked about it before. I'm so happy that people are.

1007
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 28: Tuning in right now because listen, I have this same

1008
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:28,640
Speaker 28: called supplement your lifestyle.

1009
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 22: Right a lot of us went out, We did mingle, we.

1010
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:37,120
Speaker 28: Got less sleep, so less restorative energy. We had more alcohol,

1011
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:41,040
Speaker 28: we had more sugar, we had more refined carbohydrates, and

1012
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 28: as you well know, our compromised food, our compromise, our

1013
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,200
Speaker 28: compromised food chain, our compromised choices at this point in

1014
00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,280
Speaker 28: time puts a huge burden on our liver. And our

1015
00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:52,520
Speaker 28: liver does over five hundred different functions a day for us,

1016
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:54,960
Speaker 28: and a lot of them are like how do you

1017
00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:58,600
Speaker 28: look and feel, weight management, your energy levels, hormone health,

1018
00:57:58,680 --> 00:57:59,959
Speaker 28: bring cognitive health.

1019
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,440
Speaker 22: And so it is time to support that liver.

1020
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 28: And make sure we are doing due diligence and getting

1021
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 28: back to our regular routine and then some and.

1022
00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:13,880
Speaker 20: What you're talking about is a supplement, but it's all natural.

1023
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:16,800
Speaker 20: Talk about some of the kind of natural things in

1024
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 20: this supplement that ultimately benefit our body or specifically our liver.

1025
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 22: Yeah, I love that.

1026
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 28: So Pure Health Research, if you go to their website,

1027
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 28: even pure health research dot com, and you look at

1028
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,240
Speaker 28: liver health formula, you're going to see all of the ingredients,

1029
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:33,920
Speaker 28: things like artichoke extract, milk thistle, tumoric beetroot.

1030
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 7: But what you.

1031
00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,480
Speaker 28: Also will see is that there is a clinical study

1032
00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 28: with each and every ingredient, so you can trust that

1033
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:44,360
Speaker 28: it's effective and it's natural, so it's safe. It gets

1034
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:47,840
Speaker 28: the job done. These nutrients help reduce those fat deposits.

1035
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 28: Right over one hundred million Americans have fatty liver and

1036
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:53,000
Speaker 28: do not know it, and I see it every day

1037
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 28: in my clinical practice. And these nutrients also help fight

1038
00:58:56,680 --> 00:59:00,160
Speaker 28: damaging free radicals. Those are those you know if you

1039
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 28: you set out guacamole and make a nice fresh bowl

1040
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 28: of guacamolean. You set it out and the oxygen it

1041
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:08,440
Speaker 28: turns brown, right, But what do you do? You put

1042
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:10,840
Speaker 28: an antioxidant over it like lemon juice.

1043
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:11,480
Speaker 22: Or lime juice.

1044
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:16,000
Speaker 28: It's protective and so these nutrients will hype help fight

1045
00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:19,439
Speaker 28: those damaging pre radicals and also do the liver's job

1046
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 28: with flushing out those toxins and so powerful. I would

1047
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 28: say combination synergistic ingredients that get the job done when

1048
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 28: it comes to supporting and also restoring the liver. The

1049
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 28: liver is one of the most resilient organs, but we

1050
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:36,160
Speaker 28: do have to assist it.

1051
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:38,760
Speaker 20: And the great way to do it and to get

1052
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:40,560

1063
01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:05,200
Speaker 20: you being here with us. I'm Terrence Bates. Now let's

1064
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:11,640
Speaker 20: get you back to your regularly scheduled programming.

1065
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:19,640
Speaker 2: An additional tax cut Senator or not, I greatly enjoyed

1066
01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:20,880
Speaker 2: visiting with you.

1067
01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:26,080
Speaker 3: I think probably a better way to look at it

1068
01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:29,760
Speaker 3: is on a percentage basis. And when I think about

1069
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:33,880
Speaker 3: the distributional aspects of the tax cuts and job acts,

1070
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:38,240
Speaker 3: that most of the benefits accrued for the working and

1071
01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:42,560
Speaker 3: middle people as opposed to the upper ends in absolute

1072
01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,960
Speaker 3: dollars as you just read, That is correct, but I

1073
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:48,920
Speaker 3: think it's important to look at it in percentage terms.

1074
01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:55,400
Speaker 29: So you believe that the tax cut that provided one

1075
01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 29: quarter of the benefits of the law to the top

1076
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:00,960
Speaker 29: one percent and top five percent and getting almost one

1077
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 29: half actually benefited those at the bottom more than it

1078
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,360
Speaker 29: did those at the top your testimony.

1079
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 3: I believe that in twenty and eighteen, twenty and nineteen

1080
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 3: that the households in the bottom fifty percent of income earners,

1081
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:23,040
Speaker 3: the wealth increase from those households was three times higher,

1082
01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:26,479
Speaker 3: three times higher than the wealth increase for the top

1083
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:27,920
Speaker 3: ten percent of Americans.

1084
01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,440
Speaker 29: So we should continue to move in that direction and

1085
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 29: give more tax cuts to those at the highest. You

1086
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:38,640
Speaker 29: have talked about high deficits as a national defense problem,

1087
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 29: and I agree with that. I think we need to

1088
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 29: be fiscally responsible. We need to work to close the

1089
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:47,240
Speaker 29: deficit and bring the national debt under control. In twenty thirteen,

1090
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 29: Congress extended the Bush tax cuts for everyone except those

1091
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:54,760
Speaker 29: making more than four hundred thousand dollars a year. This

1092
01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 29: bipartisan decision save the treasury six hundred billion dollars, helping

1093
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 29: to narrow the death Do you agree that ending the

1094
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,840
Speaker 29: tax cuts for those making more than four hundred thousand

1095
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:07,960
Speaker 29: would help close the deficit and reduce our national debt?

1096
01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 2: Senator I do not.

1097
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:15,960
Speaker 3: I believe that you would capture an inordinate amount of

1098
01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 3: small business people who largely are in that cohort of

1099
01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 3: four hundred thousand to a million.

1100
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:26,600
Speaker 29: You wouldn't cut it off at four hundred thousand, what

1101
01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:27,800
Speaker 29: about one million dollars?

1102
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:31,800
Speaker 3: That again, I believe the small business passed through owners,

1103
01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:34,360
Speaker 3: and I believe that.

1104
01:02:34,400 --> 01:02:38,959
Speaker 2: We, as I said before, Wall Street some great.

1105
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:41,920
Speaker 3: It is time for main Street to do well, and

1106
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 3: small businesses need to drive what I call the reprivatization

1107
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,280
Speaker 3: are away from this government spending.

1108
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 2: I agree that it's it's main Street's type time.

1109
01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 29: I'm from Atlanta, so I'll say Peachtree and some other

1110
01:02:56,720 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 29: locations in my state. What about those making more more

1111
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,280
Speaker 29: than ten million, would we.

1112
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 2: Reduce the deficit.

1113
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:10,120
Speaker 29: By extending those tax cuts for folks making about a

1114
01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:11,400
Speaker 29: million ten million dollars?

1115
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 3: So again, I think it's important that we put in

1116
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 3: incentives for them to invest. So going back to the

1117
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 3: one hundred percent of appreciation for equipment that I.

1118
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:29,960
Speaker 29: Think that So I don't mean to keep interrupting, but

1119
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 29: I'm the pastor, and we're known to be loquations of speech.

1120
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 2: But I'm running out of time here. What about one

1121
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:36,880
Speaker 2: billion dollars?

1122
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:43,760
Speaker 3: So again that I think that these are the job creators.

1123
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 29: So there's no income level for which you would support

1124
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:48,840
Speaker 29: raising taxes?

1125
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:49,800
Speaker 2: Is that fair?

1126
01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:53,640
Speaker 3: There is no income level that I don't think we

1127
01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:57,680
Speaker 3: should continue the TCJA as.

1128
01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 29: It was, all right, I think our country is facing

1129
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:09,280
Speaker 29: structural deficits. However, I think that to continue to reduce

1130
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:15,400
Speaker 29: taxes for the wealthy and letting them avoid taxes based

1131
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 29: on what they alreadyo is not going to get us

1132
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,680
Speaker 29: out of that problem. But I look forward to continuing

1133
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:21,160
Speaker 29: that discussion with you. Thank you very much.

1134
01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:23,200
Speaker 2: Thank you, senator, thank you very much.

1135
01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:25,480
Speaker 13: And before we go on to Senator Blackburn, I just

1136
01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 13: want to restate that there's a lot of facts that

1137
01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 13: have been thrown around in this hearing today. This restate

1138
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 13: one that I said in my opening statement, and that

1139
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:35,640
Speaker 13: is of this four point three to four point six

1140
01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:58,240
Speaker 13: trillion dollars tax increase, that it could happen hundred thousand dollars.

1141
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:14,120

1146
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:30,360
Speaker 10: to have a new colleague as you are, I think

01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:32,400

1148
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 1: Or finally.

1149
01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:37,920
Speaker 10: I know so finally, I think you've been the junior

1150
01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:40,080
Speaker 10: senator to Senator Rubia for quite some time.

1151
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:42,040
Speaker 1: Your reaction, Senator I.

1152
01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:43,240
Speaker 5: Want to introduce Marco.

1153
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 30: Yesterday, I say, one of the benefits of you getting

1154
01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:47,200
Speaker 30: nominated to be Sexuary State is I finally get to

1155
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:50,120
Speaker 30: be the senior senator. So I spoke to Actually, he's

1156
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,840
Speaker 30: got a pint. I just spoke to her cover. I

1157
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:54,280
Speaker 30: spoken to her a couple of times. I just got

1158
01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:56,280
Speaker 30: off the phone with her. She's going to come up

1159
01:05:56,280 --> 01:05:57,880
Speaker 30: this weekend, so I'll be meeting with her and doing

1160
01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:00,360
Speaker 30: everything I can to help her get Affkimate didn't get

1161
01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:03,440
Speaker 30: started quickly. She's been a successful attorney general in Florida

1162
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:04,520
Speaker 30: for six years.

1163
01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:05,920
Speaker 5: He took over after Pambondy.

1164
01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 30: She's done put a lot of effort in it to

1165
01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,280
Speaker 30: try to hold the Biden administration accountable.

1166
01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 5: So I think she's going to be a good colleague

1167
01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:13,520
Speaker 5: to work with.

1168
01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, just talk more.

1169
01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:20,840
Speaker 10: The announcement was made this morning by Governor DeSantis. Ashley

1170
01:06:20,880 --> 01:06:27,040
Speaker 10: Moody will fill the vacant seat and so that obviously

1171
01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:30,640
Speaker 10: keeps us solidly in the majority and will be another

1172
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:33,000
Speaker 10: powerful voice in the United States Senate.

1173
01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:35,160
Speaker 1: So walk us through.

1174
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:38,960
Speaker 10: How the confirmation process is going. Right now, Senator, we

1175
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,720
Speaker 10: have Scott Bessant and also Pam Bondy. How do you

1176
01:06:41,760 --> 01:06:46,120
Speaker 10: think Pam Bondi did well? So, Pam Bondi, who was outstanding.

1177
01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:48,640
Speaker 10: I had the opportunity. She's a good friend, as you know.

1178
01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:50,720
Speaker 10: I had the opportunity to introduce her yesterday at the

1179
01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:54,920
Speaker 10: Jujuduciary Committee, and she did a great job. She's somebody

1180
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:58,920
Speaker 10: that's smart, art working. She's going to try to bring

1181
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:00,920
Speaker 10: respect back to the part from the Justice.

1182
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:03,240
Speaker 5: She's not going to play this law fair.

1183
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:08,280
Speaker 30: Gotcha what the Biden administration, the Obama administration did. So

1184
01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:09,760
Speaker 30: I think she's going to do a really good job.

1185
01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:11,600
Speaker 30: And she did a fabulous job yesterday.

1186
01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:12,640
Speaker 5: Marco Ruby.

1187
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,400
Speaker 30: Of course, foreign Relations, I also had the opportunity to

1188
01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:18,360
Speaker 30: introduce him. He did a great job. As you know,

1189
01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:22,440
Speaker 30: he's very knowledgeable on foreign relations. And I think what

1190
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:25,480
Speaker 30: his what he wants to do is bring the Secretary

1191
01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:27,920
Speaker 30: of State's office back to the importance that it should

1192
01:07:27,960 --> 01:07:32,600
Speaker 30: have in the citing foreign policy in this country. So Pete,

1193
01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:36,440
Speaker 30: Pete Headseth did a great job at Armed Services. So

1194
01:07:36,480 --> 01:07:39,439
Speaker 30: I'm on that committee. He did a great job.

1195
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:41,600
Speaker 5: He sent me. Here's what I like about Pete.

1196
01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,680
Speaker 30: He's he's a warrior like my father did all four

1197
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:48,400
Speaker 30: Gump There's only three thousand people did all four combat

1198
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,240
Speaker 30: jumps for DAS and they're born during the Second World War,

1199
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:51,640
Speaker 30: all right.

1200
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:53,840
Speaker 5: I respected of those people.

1201
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:56,000
Speaker 30: They know where the problems are, they know what the

1202
01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:57,040
Speaker 30: warfighter needs.

1203
01:07:57,560 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 5: That's where Pete is.

1204
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,160
Speaker 30: He fought, He's served in Afghanistan and he served in Iraq.

1205
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:04,480
Speaker 30: He knows what the warfighter needs. That's what we ought

1206
01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:06,120
Speaker 30: to be doing so. I think he's going to do

1207
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:08,560
Speaker 30: a great job. He will be confirmed. I don't know

1208
01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:10,800
Speaker 30: how many Democrats are going to vote for him. I

1209
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:12,840
Speaker 30: don't know how many Democrats will vote for Pam Bondy.

1210
01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:17,320
Speaker 30: But they're going to be confirmed. Hopefully we'll get them

1211
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:23,320
Speaker 30: confirmed quickly. John Thune has committed to have a aggressive

1212
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:25,559
Speaker 30: process to try to get all these confirmations done as

1213
01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:29,640
Speaker 30: quickly as possible. It appears that Chuck Schumer and the

1214
01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:31,680
Speaker 30: Democrats are going to try to slow down as much

1215
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:36,040
Speaker 30: as possible, which makes no sense. Donald Trump was elected president.

1216
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,880
Speaker 30: He won a big win, he won the popular vote.

1217
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:42,479
Speaker 30: You should help them get their team together. And by

1218
01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:44,639
Speaker 30: the way, if his team does not do a good job.

1219
01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:47,320
Speaker 5: There's elections in two years. Help them get their team together.

1220
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:49,639
Speaker 30: Democrats should not be fighting us on this and then

1221
01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:51,760
Speaker 30: let them go do their job.

1222
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:52,879
Speaker 5: And if they don't.

1223
01:08:52,680 --> 01:08:55,280
Speaker 30: Do a good job, the public has an opportunity to

1224
01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:57,759
Speaker 30: vote in two years and not elect Republicans again.

1225
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:04,439
Speaker 10: Can you contrast the pace at which the Senate is

1226
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 10: operating right now versus twenty seventeen. It feels as if

1227
01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:12,160
Speaker 10: there was just a slow walk back during Trump one.

1228
01:09:12,640 --> 01:09:15,439
Speaker 10: This seems to be moving at a rapid pace, even

1229
01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:17,960
Speaker 10: so that I think you and many other Senators are

1230
01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:21,440
Speaker 10: bouncing in between simultaneous concurrent hearings.

1231
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:22,519
Speaker 1: Is that correct?

1232
01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:28,799
Speaker 30: Absolutely, So there's a commitment by our leadership sooner Thune

1233
01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:30,760
Speaker 30: has made a commitment that we're going to do these

1234
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:33,160
Speaker 30: as quickly as possible. I think all of us are

1235
01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:35,880
Speaker 30: going to do everything we can get them done. So

1236
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 30: the only only it's not going to be us slowing

1237
01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:42,160
Speaker 30: this down this time. It's clearly going to be that

1238
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:43,280
Speaker 30: we're going to stay here.

1239
01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 5: We're going to work.

1240
01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:46,799
Speaker 30: If we need to through the weekends to get things done,

1241
01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:49,880
Speaker 30: it'll be we'll see how much the never has want

1242
01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:51,960
Speaker 30: to slow it down. It takes a certain number of

1243
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:55,200
Speaker 30: hours of debate for every one of the cabinet members,

1244
01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:58,000
Speaker 30: so if they make us use up all that time,

1245
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:00,720
Speaker 30: then we'll all be sitting here, including the Democrats.

1246
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:03,280
Speaker 5: So I think we're doing the right thing, and I

1247
01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:03,840
Speaker 5: think we need.

1248
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:07,360
Speaker 30: To say to ourselves we should be clearly no worse

1249
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:11,240
Speaker 30: than the pace of when Obama got his cabinet put together,

1250
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:13,519
Speaker 30: and I think that should be our standard. And I

1251
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:16,679
Speaker 30: know that's exactly what we're demanding right now, and hopefully

1252
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:17,320
Speaker 30: that's what we'll get.

1253
01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:22,479
Speaker 10: So there are several votes upcoming. Can you just walk

1254
01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:24,800
Speaker 10: through our audience how this is going to work. So

1255
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:27,280
Speaker 10: President Trump in three days, in twenty two hours and

1256
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 10: forty seven minutes, becomes the forty seventh president the United States.

1257
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,360
Speaker 10: I'm sure I'll see their senator. But then it's a

1258
01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:35,760
Speaker 10: workday for you, where most of us are going to

1259
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:36,679
Speaker 10: kind of go celebrate.

1260
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,280
Speaker 1: We have a big ball to host. It is a workday.

1261
01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:42,599
Speaker 10: Walk us through what that day looks like as far

1262
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:47,240
Speaker 10: as how quickly we can get these people confirmed into office.

1263
01:10:48,439 --> 01:10:51,000
Speaker 30: So what happened is as soon as Donald Trump is

1264
01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:55,720
Speaker 30: sworn in that he'll sign the nomination letters and send

1265
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:57,960
Speaker 30: them back over here. We will have our committee votes

1266
01:10:58,439 --> 01:11:00,960
Speaker 30: to confirm them out of committee as quickly as possible,

1267
01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:02,920
Speaker 30: as many as we can get done that day, and

1268
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:07,040
Speaker 30: then we'll start the process. Now, the Democrats can slow

1269
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,680
Speaker 30: us down. They can make us take thirty hours of

1270
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:13,839
Speaker 30: centid hours basically for each of these cabinet members.

1271
01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 5: So we'll see if that's what they do.

1272
01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:18,320
Speaker 30: If you go back to Barack Obama, I can't remember,

1273
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:21,960
Speaker 30: but he got many confirmed his first day. They didn't

1274
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:26,960
Speaker 30: work that, they didn't work to help Trump in twenty seventeen. Hopefully,

1275
01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:29,120
Speaker 30: you know, they'll work to get some of these done.

1276
01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:31,840
Speaker 5: I don't know how Marco Rubio is going to get

1277
01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:33,040
Speaker 5: almost every vote. I assume.

1278
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:35,160
Speaker 30: I think there's gonna be a lot of people that

1279
01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 30: they're all going to vote from there. You're going to

1280
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:39,720
Speaker 30: get these people, we shoul they should get done immediately,

1281
01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:42,200
Speaker 30: within hours after Trump is sworn in.

1282
01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:46,240
Speaker 10: No, I think you're right. I think I think Rubio

1283
01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:49,800
Speaker 10: could pass on a voice vote. And also understand that

1284
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:52,800
Speaker 10: it's unusual for senators to vote against one of their own,

1285
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:56,680
Speaker 10: especially someone like Senator Rubio, who's around for quite some

1286
01:11:56,800 --> 01:12:00,519
Speaker 10: time and despite disagreements, has always been very respectful cordial

1287
01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 10: to the other side. So, Senator, if you were to say,

1288
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:07,080
Speaker 10: which of the ones do you anticipate a little bit

1289
01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:09,800
Speaker 10: of drama or a little bit of a fight. Pete

1290
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,440
Speaker 10: Hegseth had a great hearing, was obviously very high profile.

1291
01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:15,759
Speaker 10: Tulci Gabbard. Which are the ones that our audience should

1292
01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:17,840
Speaker 10: really focus on to try to make sure that President

1293
01:12:17,880 --> 01:12:19,320
Speaker 10: Trump gets his full cabinet.

1294
01:12:20,240 --> 01:12:22,760
Speaker 30: Well, what you need is you need national defense don

1295
01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:25,719
Speaker 30: as quickly as possible. Number One things got to be doing.

1296
01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:26,640
Speaker 2: So we need to.

1297
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:28,320
Speaker 5: Get her sixturary defense done.

1298
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,439
Speaker 30: We need to get Marco Rubio done, We need to

1299
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:32,519
Speaker 30: get Tosy Gabbert done.

1300
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:33,600
Speaker 2: So it's so.

1301
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:37,599
Speaker 30: Pete had a great hearing. I think it's very difficult

1302
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:39,400
Speaker 30: to vote against him. I don't know how the dinmer

1303
01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:41,839
Speaker 30: it's going to do, but that should happen very quickly.

1304
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:45,600
Speaker 30: Marco should happen, hopefully within hours. But after that we

1305
01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:47,639
Speaker 30: need the Attorney general done. Pam Body did a great

1306
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:51,800
Speaker 30: job at her hearing. She was outstanding. She doesn't take

1307
01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 30: any any gut from anybody. So hopefully those get done.

1308
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 30: We need to have Russ vote approved. He's going to

1309
01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:02,960
Speaker 30: be management with budget, Tolci, Gabbert, Tolci.

1310
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:05,599
Speaker 5: I assume they're gonna make it a little.

1311
01:13:05,600 --> 01:13:07,600
Speaker 30: They will make her life miserable for a while, like

1312
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,000
Speaker 30: they did Petees for a while. Uh, there'll be you

1313
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:12,720
Speaker 30: know what they what they Democrats do, They do spear campaigns.

1314
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 30: But these are great nominees. These are these are hard

1315
01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:18,679
Speaker 30: working Americans. These are people that are going to change

1316
01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:22,960
Speaker 30: the direction so cash patild that you know they're gonna

1317
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:24,720
Speaker 30: go after you know, if you look at history, they're

1318
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:26,320
Speaker 30: gonna go after Cash.

1319
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:28,799
Speaker 5: But look at I mean, look at.

1320
01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:32,520
Speaker 30: The who are who they're replacing Christopher Ray, who's clearly

1321
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:35,679
Speaker 30: uh you know it was you know, with law faird

1322
01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,960
Speaker 30: against Trump Mayrick Garland. And and look look at how

1323
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:43,840
Speaker 30: General Austin ran the Secretary of Defense and by the way,

1324
01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:48,200
Speaker 30: twice within six months he was you know, a wall.

1325
01:13:48,680 --> 01:13:51,240
Speaker 5: I mean he he had he was in.

1326
01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:54,599
Speaker 30: The hospital and didn't tell people. So I mean that's

1327
01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:56,840
Speaker 30: a boation of the law. And of course Biden did

1328
01:13:56,880 --> 01:13:57,439
Speaker 30: nothing about it.

1329
01:13:57,439 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 2: We just found out.

1330
01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:01,679

1332
01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:07,320
Speaker 10: the ground running lessons that you learned during Trump One

1333
01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:09,880
Speaker 10: that you want to communicate with our audience. The media

1334
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:12,240
Speaker 10: is going to be out of control. We must stay

1335

Speaker 10: disciplined and steady at the wheel. Senator closing thoughts, So.

1336
01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:20,720

1337

Speaker 30: they expect.

1338
01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:25,360
Speaker 5: Donald Trump won. He won big. You need to do.

1339
01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:27,559

Speaker 30: their senators know is very important to be very helpful

1380
01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:31,040

1390
01:16:56,120 --> 01:16:59,880
Speaker 32: shared the same goal and we want Americans to be prosperous.

1391

Speaker 32: had the same goal that we want Americans to be prosperous.

1394
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:14,000
Speaker 32: Mister Bessett, welcome and congratulations on your nomination as well.

1395
01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:18,600
Speaker 32: I think it could be said that Rule America in

1396
01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:22,040
Speaker 32: many ways is President Trump's base. The seventy seven million

1397
01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:24,160
Speaker 32: people that voted for President Trump, a lot of them

1398
01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:25,400
Speaker 32: came from Rule America.

1399
01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:27,639
Speaker 2: In fact, I think I could.

1400
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:31,599
Speaker 32: Argue that ninety percent of Rule Americans voted for President Trump.

1401
01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:34,200
Speaker 32: And no one has suffered more of these last four

1402
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 32: years than Rule America has. So my question is may

1403
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:39,800
Speaker 32: be geared about that as this economy, what can we

1404
01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,720
Speaker 32: do to help mainstream, to help small businesses, and to

1405
01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:47,960
Speaker 32: help Rule America. Now everyone knows that your financial wizard,

1406
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:51,920
Speaker 32: that you've been successful on Wall Street, but I just

1407
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:55,560
Speaker 32: want to understand your commitment to small town America.

1408
01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:57,120
Speaker 2: You're from a small town.

1409
01:17:57,800 --> 01:17:59,439
Speaker 7: I think you understand.

1410
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:03,240
Speaker 32: Agriculture from conversations and even some background in community banks.

1411
01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:06,240
Speaker 32: How important are community banks to those small towns?

1412
01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:07,280
Speaker 8: And what is your.

1413
01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:10,439
Speaker 6: Commitment to Rule America?

1414
01:18:11,400 --> 01:18:14,439
Speaker 3: Wilson or Marshall. I think I again maybe one of

1415
01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:21,560
Speaker 3: the few Treasury Secretary nominees in recent period who occasionally

1416
01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:26,160
Speaker 3: listens to farm Radio on XM on weekends. And I

1417
01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:31,839
Speaker 3: can tell you that after the Silicon Valley the debacle,

1418
01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:37,920
Speaker 3: that farm Radio was intently focused on the potential loss

1419
01:18:38,040 --> 01:18:43,720
Speaker 3: of small and community banks. Yes, and they are important

1420
01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:49,280
Speaker 3: pillars for those communities. So I think examining in terms

1421
01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:53,760
Speaker 3: of what is the regulation, what is the supervision that

1422
01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:58,920
Speaker 3: are they being unduly burdened and that they are not

1423
01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:04,840
Speaker 3: able to help their communities? What are the supervisor? What

1424
01:19:05,280 --> 01:19:10,720
Speaker 3: is the supervisory heating there? And then again as I

1425
01:19:10,760 --> 01:19:14,760
Speaker 3: said earlier too, I think that China has not made

1426
01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:20,599
Speaker 3: good on their agg purchases for four years, and if

1427
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:26,280
Speaker 3: confirmed next week, I will start pushing for them to

1428
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:29,920
Speaker 3: resume the purchases, and then.

1429
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:32,640
Speaker 2: I would conference with President.

1430
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:35,360
Speaker 3: Trump on whether he believes that there should be a

1431
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:36,320
Speaker 3: makeup provision.

1432
01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:37,120
Speaker 2: Thank you.

1433
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:39,920
Speaker 32: I want to stay on Rule America and talk about

1434
01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:42,600
Speaker 32: trax credits for a second.

1435
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:45,040
Speaker 7: Forty five Z is a tax credit.

1436
01:19:45,280 --> 01:19:47,000
Speaker 6: I'm not sure if you're familiar with it or not,

1437
01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:50,440
Speaker 6: but it would really help rule America in the standpoint

1438
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:53,679
Speaker 6: that we helped take some of our feed stocks, whether

1439
01:19:53,680 --> 01:19:57,759
Speaker 6: it's soybeans or corn, and turn it into biodiesel, renewable diesel.

1440
01:19:57,840 --> 01:19:59,080
Speaker 17: I think it's going to lead to a.

1441
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:00,439
Speaker 5: Cleaner air for all all of us.

1442
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:03,680
Speaker 6: But it's certainly very important to rule America and just

1443
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:04,759
Speaker 6: would ask it, you would.

1444
01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:04,960
Speaker 17: Look into it.

1445
01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:07,559
Speaker 7: But what we can't do is let it China benefit from it.

1446
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:10,200
Speaker 32: I really think any tax credit we have should not

1447
01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:14,719
Speaker 32: impact foreign entities. And just one of the few background

1448
01:20:14,760 --> 01:20:17,320
Speaker 32: thoughts on this forty five Z tax credit.

1449
01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:20,920
Speaker 3: From you well, as we discussed in your office, and

1450
01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:22,240
Speaker 3: you gave me a very good.

1451
01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:32,639
Speaker 1: Everybody welcome to us is always freedom.

1452
01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:38,800
Speaker 10: At Charlie Kirk dot com, Scott Besson is acing this confirmation, hearing, look,

1453
01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:42,440
Speaker 10: we very well might be heading for some economic turbulence

1454
01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:49,400
Speaker 10: sometime soon, some choppy waters, some uncertainty, and some financial curvebles.

1455
01:20:50,080 --> 01:20:55,439
Speaker 10: I was just reading here in one of my many

1456
01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:57,920
Speaker 10: newspapers that I kind to read during the break here,

1457
01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:03,000
Speaker 10: as in flesh and data, it's looking a little better,

1458
01:21:03,080 --> 01:21:06,280
Speaker 10: but it's nowhere near where it needs to be. And

1459
01:21:06,360 --> 01:21:10,920
Speaker 10: guess who is posting a surge in profits? JP Morgan

1460
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:13,720
Speaker 10: and Goldman Sachs post surge in profits. This is going

1461
01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 10: to be an unsustainable economic recipe. If the top banks

1462
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:21,400
Speaker 10: in the top one percent keep on posting record years

1463
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:26,040
Speaker 10: and record profits while everyday Americans can't afford eggs, butter

1464
01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:27,440
Speaker 10: and groceries.

1465
01:21:27,760 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 1: Now you're gonna have an economic revolution.

1466
01:21:29,439 --> 01:21:31,240
Speaker 10: This is exactly why Joe Biden did what he did

1467
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:33,479
Speaker 10: in his farewell addressed. Do we have Joe Biden's farewell address?

1468
01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:35,880
Speaker 10: Joe Biden didn't believe a word of what he said

1469
01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:39,599
Speaker 10: last night, However, it was very well written. Whoever wrote

1470
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:42,960
Speaker 10: that speech was basically lamenting that that is what the

1471
01:21:42,960 --> 01:21:47,040
Speaker 10: Democrats should have said this last year. Run against the oligarchy.

1472
01:21:47,640 --> 01:21:49,040
Speaker 10: Let's have the four up two. By the way, if

1473
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:53,880
Speaker 10: we can, guys, run against the entrenched economic powers and interests.

1474
01:21:54,479 --> 01:22:01,800
Speaker 10: Joe Biden's farewell address would have been very politically challenging

1475
01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:04,880
Speaker 10: for Donald Trump to run against Donald Trump himself being

1476
01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:08,080
Speaker 10: a billionaire e Lun Musk being a billionaire. Even though

1477
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 10: Joe Biden got more support from billionaires and more support

1478
01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:14,240
Speaker 10: from the one percent and the wealthiest counties in America

1479
01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:17,600
Speaker 10: disproportionately voted for Joe Biden. I think eight out of

1480
01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:20,080
Speaker 10: ten of the wealthiest counties. It's a message that would

1481
01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:23,080
Speaker 10: have would have been very difficult for Republicans to overcome

1482
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:27,120
Speaker 10: if Democrats would have been saying on immigration, saying on crime,

1483
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:30,679
Speaker 10: saying on the trans stuff instead is just completely out

1484
01:22:30,680 --> 01:22:38,920
Speaker 10: of control. And Joe Biden's farewell address said that there

1485
01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 10: is a smaller and smaller group of people controlling more

1486
01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:43,040
Speaker 10: and more of the wealth. I mean he's correct, of course,

1487
01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:46,040
Speaker 10: he didn't believe that threat any part of his presidency.

1488
01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:48,280
Speaker 10: He pandered to that very same oligarchy. He made that

1489
01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,960
Speaker 10: old archy protected by the law fair regime. He did

1490
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,519
Speaker 10: the bidding of that oligarchy. But we don't want to

1491
01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:55,840
Speaker 10: live in such an oligarchy. We want to be able

1492
01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:58,440
Speaker 10: to have it where there is robust, free market competition.

1493
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:01,200
Speaker 10: And if you want to be able to get to

1494
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,639
Speaker 10: four hundred billion dollars in wealth of like Elon Munsk,

1495
01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:05,519
Speaker 10: we have no problem with that. But we want to

1496
01:23:05,560 --> 01:23:07,360
Speaker 10: make sure that we can get ten twenty thirty more

1497
01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:09,000
Speaker 10: people like Elon Musk. We want this to be the

1498
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:11,799
Speaker 10: center of entrepreneur activity around the planet.

1499
01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:17,560
Speaker 1: We do not want.

1500
01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:22,599
Speaker 10: To have a system where there is an entrenched ruling

1501
01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:25,519
Speaker 10: class that is untouchable. Here in the Wall Street Journal,

1502
01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:29,960
Speaker 10: it writes big bank profits surged in the fourth quarter

1503
01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:32,559
Speaker 10: as Wall Street ward back to life, with net income

1504
01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:37,280
Speaker 10: rising fifty percent and doubling at Goldman Sachs. I mean,

1505
01:23:37,360 --> 01:23:41,280
Speaker 10: it's the best years they've ever had. Black Rocks profits rose,

1506
01:23:41,439 --> 01:23:46,519
Speaker 10: assets under management edged up to eleven point five trillion dollars.

1507
01:23:48,439 --> 01:23:51,240
Speaker 10: This is Joe Biden with the message that Democrats should

1508
01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,280
Speaker 10: have run on. If the Democrats would have run on

1509
01:23:53,400 --> 01:23:56,240
Speaker 10: this message and said we're going to close the borders,

1510
01:23:56,800 --> 01:24:00,320
Speaker 10: we're going to be tough on crime. For any Democrats

1511
01:24:00,360 --> 01:24:05,519
Speaker 10: taking note, that's the pivot they should make. Play Cut ninety.

1512
01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:08,519
Speaker 33: I want to warn a country some things and give

1513
01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:13,160
Speaker 33: me great concern. This is a dangerous concert and that's

1514
01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:16,280
Speaker 33: the dangerous conversation of power in the hands of a

1515
01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:22,120
Speaker 33: very few ultrawealthy people, the dangerous consequences if their abusive

1516
01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:23,440
Speaker 33: power is left unchecked.

1517
01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:27,360
Speaker 1: Now he's worried about an oligarchy.

1518
01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:30,240
Speaker 10: Last week he gave the nation's highest civilian honor to

1519
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:34,360
Speaker 10: George Soros. He doesn't believe any of this. This last election,

1520
01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:37,559
Speaker 10: Joe Biden represented the oligarchs and now he's regretting that

1521
01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:40,880
Speaker 10: he didn't run against them. But it was the people

1522
01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:43,920
Speaker 10: versus the plutocrats. That is what this election was all about.

1523
01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:47,640
Speaker 10: It was the people versus the plutocrats, and we the

1524
01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:51,439
Speaker 10: people own the table. We got a seat at the table,

1525
01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:55,680
Speaker 10: and now the chairman of the board is back to

1526
01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:59,360
Speaker 10: being we the people. But what I'm reading here with

1527
01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:02,720
Speaker 10: this economic data, as Scott Bestson continues his testimony, this

1528
01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:07,760
Speaker 10: is unsustainable and it's unsustainable that the biggest banks in

1529
01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:11,280
Speaker 10: the country are posting a fifty percent profit and doubling

1530
01:25:11,280 --> 01:25:13,160
Speaker 10: of income. At Goldmen Sachs, how many of you in

1531
01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:16,599
Speaker 10: this audience saw your net income double this last year? Anybody,

1532
01:25:17,120 --> 01:25:21,120
Speaker 10: anybody in this audience see your income for your family double?

1533
01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:24,559
Speaker 10: How about by fifty percent? How about up by ten percent?

1534
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:26,519
Speaker 10: I bet many of you in this audience are actually

1535
01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:29,000
Speaker 10: getting poor every single year because of efficient thanks to

1536
01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:33,240
Speaker 10: Joe Biden. This is why the Scott Bessen nomination is

1537
01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:36,679
Speaker 10: so important. And now Elizabeth Warren is asking questions Scott Beston,

1538
01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:37,360
Speaker 10: I want to listen to that.

1539
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:39,080
Speaker 1: We're out of time. In this segment, we're going to

1540
01:25:39,160 --> 01:25:40,160
Speaker 1: do this throughout.

1541
01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:41,800
Speaker 10: The break and then we're going to bring on an

1542
01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:45,520
Speaker 10: economic expert, Colin Plume from a great partner's Noble Gold Investments,

1543
01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:48,840
Speaker 10: to dialogue with him. So I want to throw to

1544
01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:52,200
Speaker 10: Elizabeth Warren here in a second, subscribe to the Charlie

1547
01:25:59,280 --> 01:26:03,000
Speaker 10: to be broadcasting live from the Imperial Capital starting tomorrow

1548
01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:08,559
Speaker 10: as we welcome a new regime taking over DC. Elizabeth

1549
01:26:08,600 --> 01:26:10,759
Speaker 10: Warren and Scott Besson continues through the break.

1550
01:26:29,960 --> 01:26:30,400
Speaker 22: Appeal.

1551
01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:34,920
Speaker 34: I knowe however, right now, that's not what Congressional Republicans

1552
01:26:34,960 --> 01:26:38,600
Speaker 34: plan to do. Last month, they committed to raising the

1553
01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:41,719
Speaker 34: debt limit by another one and a half trillion dollars.

1554
01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:45,599
Speaker 34: So why do Republicans want to raise the debt ceiling?

1555
01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:51,000
Speaker 34: Because their plan is to shovel new tax cuts to billionaires,

1556
01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:54,439
Speaker 34: and that would increase the debt by more than a

1557
01:26:54,520 --> 01:26:58,599
Speaker 34: trillion dollars just in the next four year period. During

1558
01:26:58,680 --> 01:27:03,280
Speaker 34: his first term, President A. Trump's only major legislative achievement

1559
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:07,759
Speaker 34: was the twenty seventeen tax cuts that mostly got sucked

1560
01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:12,320
Speaker 34: up by millionaires, billionaires, and giant corporations. Now, most of

1561
01:27:12,360 --> 01:27:16,160
Speaker 34: these cuts were good for only eight years, so that

1562
01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:19,960
Speaker 34: Republicans who were designing them could claim that the cost

1563
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:24,840
Speaker 34: was only two trillion dollars eight years of cuts that

1564
01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:29,240
Speaker 34: added two trillion dollars to the dead. Now we're talking

1565
01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:32,720
Speaker 34: about Republicans and President elect Trump who want to give

1566
01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:38,040
Speaker 34: those same rich people and giant corporations more years of

1567
01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:41,120
Speaker 34: tax cuts. And I just want to be clear that

1568
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:46,280
Speaker 34: we understand each other here that I think it was

1569
01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:52,439
Speaker 34: Reverend bur Senator Warnock who asked you about is there

1570
01:27:53,439 --> 01:27:57,080
Speaker 34: any billionaire ridge enough who you wouldn't support a tax

1571
01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:59,960
Speaker 34: cut for going forward?

1572
01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:06,880
Speaker 3: I think it's unwise to single out any individual, any

1573
01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:08,639
Speaker 3: any individual.

1574
01:28:09,439 --> 01:28:12,439
Speaker 34: Okay, it's reading a group of billionaires. You can just

1575
01:28:12,520 --> 01:28:14,519
Speaker 34: pick a dollar figure and there could be more than

1576
01:28:14,560 --> 01:28:15,360
Speaker 34: one above him.

1577
01:28:16,920 --> 01:28:19,759
Speaker 2: I could give you a glib answer, but I won't.

1578
01:28:19,880 --> 01:28:23,479
Speaker 3: But you know again that that that's not where the

1579
01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:28,479
Speaker 3: money is. That that this At one point when President

1580
01:28:28,520 --> 01:28:34,360
Speaker 3: Obama was debating at Romney, the moderator said, but sir,

1581
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:37,960
Speaker 3: that would make collections go down the TODA.

1582
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 2: But it's about fairness, and I have to tell you

1583
01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:40,840
Speaker 2: some warrant.

1584
01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:45,240
Speaker 34: I'm about collection, I understand, but I like to think

1585
01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:49,120
Speaker 34: that fairness is about billionaires actually paying their fair share too.

1586
01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:52,800
Speaker 2: Thank you, mister Chairman, Thank you, Senator Scott, Thank you,

1587
01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:53,439
Speaker 2: Sir Scott.

1588
01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:55,960
Speaker 35: Welcome, Miss specific I welcome to our committee and can

1589
01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:58,000
Speaker 35: see you again, and thank you for your willingness to serve.

1590
01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:00,879
Speaker 35: It's certainly a sacrifice to you, you and your family.

1591
01:29:01,160 --> 01:29:03,680
Speaker 35: I think it's actually an investment for the country. We

1592
01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:05,720
Speaker 35: need folks who are willing to sacrifice and have a

1593
01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:09,200
Speaker 35: greater cause. The greater cause in this instances generations of

1594
01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:11,760
Speaker 35: Americans you will likely never meet, but will be better

1595
01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:14,280
Speaker 35: off because we do the right thing. One of the

1596
01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:17,280
Speaker 35: things I think about as the right thing, I know

1597
01:29:17,600 --> 01:29:18,120
Speaker 35: we grew up in.

1598
01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:19,280
Speaker 2: A working class family, and.

1599
01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:21,599
Speaker 35: I grew up in a single parent household maritive poverty

1600
01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:24,760
Speaker 35: is having stability in our financial system. One of the

1601
01:29:24,760 --> 01:29:27,800
Speaker 35: places where we need the greatest enough stability as far

1602
01:29:27,840 --> 01:29:30,160
Speaker 35: as banks, so think about Silicon Valley Bank and other

1603
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:31,879
Speaker 35: banks have failed recently.

1604
01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:33,879
Speaker 2: As you can imagine, it's the chairman of the Banking Committee.

1605
01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:37,040
Speaker 35: I care deeply about the stability and strength of our

1606
01:29:37,040 --> 01:29:40,280
Speaker 35: banking system. From your vantage point, can you provide your

1607
01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:43,040
Speaker 35: assessment of the current safety and selldness of the US

1608
01:29:43,160 --> 01:29:46,720
Speaker 35: banking industry and with stiff you believe are necessary to

1609
01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:50,479
Speaker 35: ensure long term stability.

1610
01:29:52,120 --> 01:29:55,040
Speaker 2: Center Scott, good to see you. Good to have two

1611
01:29:55,080 --> 01:29:58,080
Speaker 2: South caronoons in the room, and look.

1612
01:29:58,200 --> 01:30:03,880
Speaker 3: I think the strength of the US economy, our financial

1613
01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:08,520
Speaker 3: markets is the depth and breadth of our financial systems.

1614
01:30:09,120 --> 01:30:13,200
Speaker 2: I believe that we have likely seen the top five.

1615
01:30:13,040 --> 01:30:17,280
Speaker 3: Banks become too big a share of banking assets. We

1616
01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:23,559
Speaker 3: have seen, because of undue regulation, the shadow banking system

1617
01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:29,280
Speaker 3: get larger and larger, and to the detriment of community banks,

1618
01:30:29,320 --> 01:30:34,439
Speaker 3: small banks, and the small regional banks. So I think

1619
01:30:34,520 --> 01:30:38,360
Speaker 3: that we have to take a look at both regulatory

1620
01:30:38,520 --> 01:30:44,280
Speaker 3: and supervisory conditions in those I think that the banking

1621
01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:49,599
Speaker 3: system is well capitalized, perhaps over capitalized, and this comes

1622
01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:53,799
Speaker 3: from someone my background is as a financial institutions analyst.

1623
01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:56,440
Speaker 2: I've also taught the history.

1624
01:30:56,160 --> 01:31:00,120
Speaker 3: Of financial crises, so I am very attuned to the

1625
01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:02,800
Speaker 3: idea that financial.

1626
01:31:02,320 --> 01:31:03,920
Speaker 2: Stability is important.

1627
01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:08,880
Speaker 3: We the pendulum tends to swing from one win go

1628
01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:14,160
Speaker 3: into overshoot, and that from ninety nine to two thousand

1629
01:31:14,200 --> 01:31:17,920
Speaker 3: and eight that was an overshoot and since then the

1630
01:31:17,960 --> 01:31:21,920
Speaker 3: regulation that our banking system has been constrained.

1631
01:31:22,280 --> 01:31:23,479
Speaker 2: And if we're going to.

1632
01:31:23,479 --> 01:31:28,280
Speaker 3: Have the kind of the generalized mainstream prosperity that I

1633
01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:30,240
Speaker 3: would like to see over the next few years, it's

1634
01:31:30,280 --> 01:31:34,840
Speaker 3: going to be driven by communities, small banks, and small regionals.

1635
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:38,040
Speaker 35: If I had more time, maybe another five or six

1636
01:31:38,080 --> 01:31:38,840
Speaker 35: minutes would be great.

1637
01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:41,000
Speaker 2: I don't think I'm getting it. Thank you very much.

1638

Speaker 10: to be? It's good to have you here in Palm Beach. Yes,

01:33:17,439 --> 01:33:20,120
Speaker 10: oh very nice. It's our last program here. Oh okay,

1666
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:22,479
Speaker 10: Palm Beach before we head up to the Imperial Capital.

1667
01:33:23,040 --> 01:33:25,000
Speaker 1: And you've got some goodies here of us.

1668
01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:28,680
Speaker 10: So Scott Beston is going to have some serious.

1669
01:33:28,360 --> 01:33:29,880
Speaker 1: Challenges in front of him.

1670
01:33:30,479 --> 01:33:32,080
Speaker 10: What would you say are the biggest ones if you

1671
01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:33,040
Speaker 10: had to identify them?

1672
01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:36,439
Speaker 7: Well, overall, with the economy, I think you know, the

1673
01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:39,639
Speaker 7: CPI report came out. Inflation is still it's sticky, right,

1674
01:33:39,680 --> 01:33:42,519
Speaker 7: It's still here. So that's something that you have to

1675
01:33:42,520 --> 01:33:46,320
Speaker 7: think about, is do we focus on reducing inflation or

1676
01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:48,880
Speaker 7: do we focus on growth? And I think what my

1677
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:51,200
Speaker 7: opinion is is there's only a few different ways to go.

1678
01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:54,639
Speaker 7: Is you go high growth, high inflation. You go high

1679
01:33:54,640 --> 01:33:58,200
Speaker 7: growth low inflation, which is the ideal, but very difficult

1680
01:33:58,240 --> 01:34:02,960
Speaker 7: to do. Low growth, high inflation, stagflation, that's always dangerous.

1681
01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:03,559
Speaker 7: We don't want that.

1682
01:34:03,560 --> 01:34:05,120
Speaker 1: We've been living through a little bit of that, right.

1683
01:34:05,080 --> 01:34:06,800
Speaker 7: We've been living through a little bit of that, So

1684
01:34:07,040 --> 01:34:10,200
Speaker 7: we need In my opinion, I don't think with the

1685
01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:12,280
Speaker 7: next administration coming in, I don't think there's any way

1686
01:34:12,280 --> 01:34:14,960
Speaker 7: that you're not going to have inflation, but I think

1687
01:34:14,960 --> 01:34:16,280
Speaker 7: it will be coupled with a growth.

1688
01:34:17,080 --> 01:34:20,800
Speaker 10: So from a policy standpoint, what would you like to

1689
01:34:20,800 --> 01:34:24,400
Speaker 10: see happen? As far as the Treasury Secretary managing the

1690
01:34:24,439 --> 01:34:28,800
Speaker 10: money supply to be able to boost middle class incomes, well.

1691
01:34:28,720 --> 01:34:32,080
Speaker 7: It's tough because I think they've been very conservative with

1692
01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:34,920
Speaker 7: the money supply and they've reduced the amount that they've

1693
01:34:35,000 --> 01:34:37,960
Speaker 7: exposed to the markets. A lot of people believe they

1694
01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:40,200
Speaker 7: will open that back up. They're going to start freely

1695
01:34:40,280 --> 01:34:42,000
Speaker 7: bringing money back into the market. It's going to be

1696
01:34:42,040 --> 01:34:43,200
Speaker 7: chereful when you do that, though, You've got to be

1697
01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:46,200
Speaker 7: careful because that could bring inflation again. But I think

1698
01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:50,000
Speaker 7: that all the measures going forward, we want wage growth,

1699
01:34:50,040 --> 01:34:52,639
Speaker 7: we want job growth. The people that have been hurt

1700
01:34:52,680 --> 01:34:56,160
Speaker 7: the most over the last four years have been people

1701
01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:59,800
Speaker 7: that have had credit card linguencies. They've been the highest

1702
01:34:59,800 --> 01:35:01,920
Speaker 7: that we I've seen in a long time. Last year

1703
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:03,679
Speaker 7: was the highest lot of debt, a lot of debt

1704
01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:08,400
Speaker 7: for middle Americans. So they need high growth opportunities, they

1705
01:35:08,439 --> 01:35:11,400
Speaker 7: need wage growth, and those are the measures that I

1706
01:35:11,439 --> 01:35:13,240
Speaker 7: think are going to put more money back in people's

1707
01:35:13,240 --> 01:35:16,040
Speaker 7: pockets so that they can, you know, live a better

1708
01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:17,360
Speaker 7: life and not take on all this debt.

1709
01:35:17,479 --> 01:35:20,439
Speaker 10: And look, there's a chance that inflation does continue to

1710
01:35:20,439 --> 01:35:23,400
Speaker 10: get out of control. Talk about how gold is doing

1711
01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:26,680
Speaker 10: and silver. Gold has been very reliable. In fact, I

1712
01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:28,960
Speaker 10: think gold is at twenty seven hundred and fifty one dollars

1713
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:29,559
Speaker 10: an ounce.

1714
01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:32,320
Speaker 7: Correct, Yeah, Yeah, gold is up twenty six percent last year,

1715
01:35:33,240 --> 01:35:36,559
Speaker 7: six percent, yeah. Paul shuter Jones, I mean they said

1716
01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:39,559
Speaker 7: it best, all roads lead to inflation. That's why you're

1717
01:35:39,560 --> 01:35:43,120
Speaker 7: seeing alternative assets, gold, crypto. All these things really do well.

1718
01:35:43,800 --> 01:35:46,759
Speaker 7: The world is divested away from the dollar. They're moving away,

1719
01:35:46,920 --> 01:35:50,800
Speaker 7: the bricks are moving away. It's a natural progression. The

1720
01:35:50,840 --> 01:35:54,000
Speaker 7: petro dial dollar, this great control that we had where

1721
01:35:54,040 --> 01:35:56,280
Speaker 7: every dollar is being used for oil, that seems to

1722
01:35:56,320 --> 01:35:58,800
Speaker 7: be going away. That was a massive advantage that we

1723
01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:01,560
Speaker 7: had that Nixon signed in nineteen seventy three. It was

1724
01:36:01,600 --> 01:36:04,200
Speaker 7: one of the best things he had ever done, and

1725
01:36:04,240 --> 01:36:07,120
Speaker 7: that seems to be slipping away. So I am concerned

1726
01:36:07,160 --> 01:36:11,479
Speaker 7: that inflation will continue to be here in the high twos.

1727
01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:13,200
Speaker 7: And I've been saying for a few years that I

1728
01:36:13,200 --> 01:36:16,439
Speaker 7: think two percent inflation is an unrealistic number. If you

1729
01:36:16,479 --> 01:36:19,280
Speaker 7: look at the world, nobody holds himself to two percent.

1730
01:36:19,400 --> 01:36:20,960
Speaker 7: I actually think we're going to go to a three

1731
01:36:20,960 --> 01:36:25,360
Speaker 7: percent model, and I think that's much more attainable. But

1732
01:36:25,520 --> 01:36:27,200
Speaker 7: I think we're going to sit in the high twos.

1733
01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:28,960
Speaker 10: And the key is to be able at least to

1734
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:32,880
Speaker 10: have growth outpace inflation right correct as the very baseline right.

1735
01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:33,880
Speaker 1: So if you have a new.

1736
01:36:33,840 --> 01:36:37,960
Speaker 10: Three percent baseline inflation rate, what is it technically now?

1737
01:36:37,960 --> 01:36:39,840
Speaker 10: I have it here two point seven. I don't believe

1738
01:36:39,840 --> 01:36:42,200
Speaker 10: that though. Can you talk about the fabrication of some

1739
01:36:42,240 --> 01:36:44,320
Speaker 10: of these flation numbers, because people will tell you things

1740
01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:45,639
Speaker 10: are getting more expensive than that.

1741
01:36:45,760 --> 01:36:49,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, Well, if you go back to the early nineteen

1742
01:36:49,080 --> 01:36:51,800
Speaker 7: eighties and how they calculate inflation, you take the same

1743
01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:54,559
Speaker 7: numbers today, we'd be above ten percent. They've pulled out

1744
01:36:54,600 --> 01:36:57,000
Speaker 7: a lot of different statistics to show a number that's low,

1745
01:36:57,600 --> 01:37:01,280
Speaker 7: and that allows them to continue the debt and continue

1746
01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:03,840
Speaker 7: the spending. And that's typically what politicians want to do.

1747
01:37:03,880 --> 01:37:05,800
Speaker 7: They don't want to make any cuts. I think this

1748
01:37:05,840 --> 01:37:08,000
Speaker 7: new administration that's the big goal, right, to make some

1749
01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:12,000
Speaker 7: significant cuts to bring our debt down, which gives people more.

1750
01:37:12,600 --> 01:37:15,080
Speaker 7: The whole deed. Dollarization is based on the fact that

1751
01:37:15,120 --> 01:37:17,280
Speaker 7: people are losing confidence at our dollar. It's not that

1752
01:37:17,760 --> 01:37:20,120
Speaker 7: they want to trade in another currency that's better. There

1753
01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:23,320
Speaker 7: really isn't anything that much better. They just don't feel

1754
01:37:23,360 --> 01:37:25,599
Speaker 7: comfortable with our debt. That's what's happening.

1755
01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:29,240
Speaker 10: And yeah, so the challenge for the administration will be

1756
01:37:29,280 --> 01:37:32,880
Speaker 10: to manage that inflation, navigate those waters. Talk about what

1757
01:37:32,920 --> 01:37:35,280
Speaker 10: you're doing at Noble Gold Investments and your new book

1758
01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:38,200
Speaker 10: about silver, which is equally as interesting.

1759
01:37:38,320 --> 01:37:40,599
Speaker 7: Yeah, The new book is called Silver Is a New Oil,

1760
01:37:41,280 --> 01:37:44,080
Speaker 7: and it's basically a book where I believe that we're

1761
01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:47,040
Speaker 7: coming into a new supercycle. And the new supercycle is

1762
01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:52,479
Speaker 7: high growth and high and higher than normal inflation, but

1763
01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:56,080
Speaker 7: higher opportunities. And I think the opportunity in silver is

1764
01:37:56,080 --> 01:37:57,880
Speaker 7: something a lot of people don't talk about. Everyone talks

1765
01:37:57,880 --> 01:38:00,479
Speaker 7: about gold, and gold has already gone on a mass run,

1766
01:38:01,160 --> 01:38:05,559
Speaker 7: but silver is still below it's nineteen eighty three price,

1767
01:38:05,600 --> 01:38:07,320
Speaker 7: and there's no other commodity out there.

1768
01:38:07,439 --> 01:38:09,439
Speaker 1: Why is that? Has there been an abundance of supply.

1769
01:38:09,880 --> 01:38:11,800
Speaker 7: There hasn't been that much supply. I think a lot

1770
01:38:11,800 --> 01:38:13,280
Speaker 7: of it has been pushed down by a lot of

1771
01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,880
Speaker 7: the larger organizations. They don't want the price where it

1772
01:38:15,920 --> 01:38:18,679
Speaker 7: should be. But yeah, I mean we're sitting at thirty

1773
01:38:18,720 --> 01:38:21,920
Speaker 7: dollars an ounce basically today, which is a number that

1774
01:38:22,200 --> 01:38:24,880
Speaker 7: it already hit fifty. It's hit fifty dollars an ounce.

1775
01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:28,959
Speaker 7: So if you get solar energy ev all the electrical

1776
01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:32,799
Speaker 7: uses medical devices, and I go into really long detail.

1777
01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:36,519
Speaker 7: And then the government, the military uses a tremendous amount

1778
01:38:36,520 --> 01:38:39,439
Speaker 7: of silver, drones, all those things. So much silver they

1779
01:38:39,439 --> 01:38:41,639
Speaker 7: don't even want to release how much silver they use,

1780
01:38:41,720 --> 01:38:44,280
Speaker 7: so I do think there's a massive opportunity. So I

1781
01:38:44,320 --> 01:38:45,840
Speaker 7: get into that in my book. And I also talk

1782
01:38:45,840 --> 01:38:50,200
Speaker 7: about some investment strategies that are outside the traditional investments

1783
01:38:50,760 --> 01:38:54,200
Speaker 7: I've used in my life that I talk about those. Yeah, well,

1784
01:38:54,240 --> 01:38:57,360
Speaker 7: one of them is just focusing on assets. I really

1785
01:38:57,360 --> 01:38:59,560
Speaker 7: talk about here is that there's going to be opportunities

1786
01:38:59,600 --> 01:39:02,000
Speaker 7: where you're going to acquire assets at a good price,

1787
01:39:02,479 --> 01:39:05,120
Speaker 7: and you want to continue to acquire those assets. You

1788
01:39:05,200 --> 01:39:07,840
Speaker 7: just focus and you add and the two assets I

1789
01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:10,400
Speaker 7: talk about in the book are silver and real estate

1790
01:39:10,920 --> 01:39:14,680
Speaker 7: in satellite cities. I still think there's tremendous opportunities in

1791
01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:17,160
Speaker 7: cities that are outside the main city. So like you're

1792
01:39:17,200 --> 01:39:20,799
Speaker 7: out in Phoenix. Obviously Phoenix and Scott's Hill's really fun stuff.

1793
01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:25,879
Speaker 7: Flag Staff, Mesa the next city where people naturally grow

1794
01:39:26,320 --> 01:39:28,720
Speaker 7: and they haven't seen that explosive growth. Those are the

1795
01:39:28,720 --> 01:39:31,759
Speaker 7: cities you want to identify. Find a city you understand,

1796
01:39:31,840 --> 01:39:33,000
Speaker 7: and go out there and get it.

1797
01:39:33,080 --> 01:39:33,400
Speaker 1: Mesa.

1798
01:39:33,479 --> 01:39:34,600
Speaker 2: We like Mesa.

1799
01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:36,439
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's one of the cities I talk about at

1800
01:39:36,439 --> 01:39:39,160
Speaker 7: my book. I also talk about Greenville, South Carolina, which

1801
01:39:39,160 --> 01:39:42,320
Speaker 7: I actually just bought a property this year or last year.

1802
01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:44,680
Speaker 7: I bought a property there because I really believe in it.

1803
01:39:44,720 --> 01:39:48,120
Speaker 7: But silver is the easy one in that there's no work, right,

1804
01:39:48,160 --> 01:39:51,599
Speaker 7: there's no maintenance, there's no tenants, so you can really

1805
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:54,479
Speaker 7: buy it and sock it away and it's a sleepy

1806
01:39:54,520 --> 01:39:57,800
Speaker 7: investment that you can just not think about. And then

1807
01:39:58,080 --> 01:39:59,840
Speaker 7: you know, ten years from now, when it's sitting at

1808
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:02,040
Speaker 7: you know, one hundred, one hundred and fifty dollars an ounce.

1809
01:40:01,760 --> 01:40:06,160
Speaker 10: You'll be so, yeah, let's so, why hasn't silver over

1810
01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:07,400
Speaker 10: since nineteen eighties moved?

1811
01:40:07,400 --> 01:40:08,320
Speaker 1: And why will it now?

1812
01:40:08,360 --> 01:40:10,200
Speaker 10: I know you're going through some of those, but what

1813
01:40:10,280 --> 01:40:12,280
Speaker 10: do you think will be the forcing f Yeah.

1814
01:40:12,160 --> 01:40:15,240
Speaker 7: I think the market for silver that on the exchange

1815
01:40:15,280 --> 01:40:18,960
Speaker 7: is still pretty small. It's not as actively traded. Also,

1816
01:40:19,040 --> 01:40:21,880
Speaker 7: if you look at gold, gold is bought so much

1817
01:40:21,920 --> 01:40:24,640
Speaker 7: and just held, whereas silver is seen as more of

1818
01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:27,559
Speaker 7: an industrial metal. But what people don't realize is that

1819
01:40:27,840 --> 01:40:31,240
Speaker 7: a lot of the uses for silver aren't recyclable. Some are,

1820
01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:35,479
Speaker 7: but some are not. Like, for instance, refrigerators, there's almost

1821
01:40:35,520 --> 01:40:38,800
Speaker 7: two ounces of silver, and most refrigerators today, nobody's going

1822
01:40:38,840 --> 01:40:41,479
Speaker 7: to go in that old refrigerator and pull that out right,

1823
01:40:41,560 --> 01:40:45,160
Speaker 7: That two ounces is gone right, solar panels ten to

1824
01:40:45,200 --> 01:40:47,280
Speaker 7: twenty and everybody. If there were two ounces of gold,

1825
01:40:47,360 --> 01:40:49,160
Speaker 7: they would tear there is two ounces to go, they

1826
01:40:49,160 --> 01:40:51,559
Speaker 7: would have Yeah, exactly, I mean this is five ounces

1827
01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:53,519
Speaker 7: of gold. So yeah, I mean if someone would get in.

1828
01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:54,880
Speaker 1: There and then what is it? This is a key,

1829
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:55,479
Speaker 1: This is a key.

1830
01:40:55,600 --> 01:40:57,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a kilo gold. Yeah, if there is a

1831
01:40:57,320 --> 01:41:00,240
Speaker 7: kilo gold and refrigerator, well your refrigerator, don't don't just

1832
01:41:00,240 --> 01:41:02,720
Speaker 7: walk through the streets with us. Your refriger it would

1833
01:41:02,720 --> 01:41:04,720
Speaker 7: be one hundred thousand dollars with that. How much is

1834
01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:06,639
Speaker 7: this by the way, that's close to eighty thousand?

1835
01:41:06,800 --> 01:41:07,040
Speaker 3: Wow?

1836
01:41:07,120 --> 01:41:08,679
Speaker 7: There, Yeah, that's nice.

1837
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:11,720
Speaker 10: I asked Kyle enough I could keep it. He said, no, Well,

1838
01:41:11,800 --> 01:41:13,920
Speaker 10: we'll talk about it. I'll give you a good price.

1839
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:16,920
Speaker 10: I'll do a great price. I know you'll do a

1840
01:41:16,920 --> 01:41:18,080
Speaker 10: great price. Keep gone, please.

1841
01:41:18,240 --> 01:41:19,720
Speaker 7: Well. And also I was going to say not to

1842
01:41:19,760 --> 01:41:22,360
Speaker 7: transition totally out of it, but I was evacuating the fires,

1843
01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:24,000
Speaker 7: and I've been talking Priance.

1844
01:41:24,080 --> 01:41:25,519
Speaker 1: God, you guys were scared, you were.

1845
01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:27,280
Speaker 7: Okay, And I was talking to people. Is that this

1846
01:41:27,400 --> 01:41:29,840
Speaker 7: is exactly this right Here is some of the stuff

1847
01:41:29,840 --> 01:41:31,360
Speaker 7: that I put in a backpack, and I left with.

1848
01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:33,639
Speaker 7: And I think that one of the things that people

1849
01:41:33,640 --> 01:41:35,400
Speaker 7: are not going to report and it's going to come out,

1850
01:41:35,520 --> 01:41:38,960
Speaker 7: is that there's someone in the fire that had millions

1851
01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:41,640
Speaker 7: of dollars a bit coins sitting on a ledger that's gone.

1852
01:41:41,840 --> 01:41:44,240
Speaker 7: You know that men they forgot their passage of course, no, no,

1853
01:41:44,240 --> 01:41:47,280
Speaker 7: they had it on a ledger in their house and

1854
01:41:47,320 --> 01:41:47,800
Speaker 7: it's gone.

1855
01:41:47,880 --> 01:41:48,080
Speaker 2: Right.

1856
01:41:48,760 --> 01:41:50,479
Speaker 7: The thing is is you got to people think some

1857
01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:52,760
Speaker 7: things are investments or not. I was, I was joking

1858
01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:56,120
Speaker 7: earlier about purses and some of these things, and you know,

1859
01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:58,160
Speaker 7: people are going to be in a situation where is

1860
01:41:58,200 --> 01:42:00,760
Speaker 7: if this is so easy, I mean you could this

1861
01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:02,599
Speaker 7: is you know we're talking about like one hundred thousand

1862
01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:05,240
Speaker 7: dollars here, this fits. This could fit in a tiny

1863
01:42:05,280 --> 01:42:08,360
Speaker 7: little bag, right, And silver takes more to supply to right,

1864
01:42:08,400 --> 01:42:10,800
Speaker 7: and maybe it takes it to store. Yes, absolutely, yes

1865
01:42:10,840 --> 01:42:13,400
Speaker 7: silver does. So we do storage for silver for clients,

1866
01:42:13,520 --> 01:42:15,680
Speaker 7: but gold is not. I mean this is yeah, I mean,

1867
01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:17,400
Speaker 7: this is yeah, right, so you could fit you can

1868
01:42:17,439 --> 01:42:19,000
Speaker 7: look at this. You can fit you know, a million

1869
01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:22,320
Speaker 7: dollars in a shoe box pretty easily. So it's liquid.

1870
01:42:22,400 --> 01:42:24,720
Speaker 7: You can take it places. That's why I think it's

1871
01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:27,880
Speaker 7: a really smart investment. That's why people like it. But

1872
01:42:27,920 --> 01:42:30,759
Speaker 7: the liquidity and the other thing that I love about

1873
01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:33,000
Speaker 7: precious metals. The way we do it is that you're

1874
01:42:33,040 --> 01:42:35,120
Speaker 7: not paying anyone a fee every year you once you

1875
01:42:35,160 --> 01:42:38,960
Speaker 7: buy this, it's yours. Every other investment in the world,

1876
01:42:39,080 --> 01:42:41,920
Speaker 7: there is some fee you're paying somebody every year, whether

1877
01:42:41,920 --> 01:42:44,639
Speaker 7: it's some management fee or property tax or an annual

1878
01:42:44,640 --> 01:42:46,320
Speaker 7: fee you know, once you buy this.

1879
01:42:46,520 --> 01:42:47,240
Speaker 1: That's so interesting.

1880
01:42:47,280 --> 01:42:50,680
Speaker 10: So they are exempt from any property tax, they're exempt from.

1881
01:42:50,400 --> 01:42:53,200
Speaker 7: There's not I mean, if you sell it, there's capital gain. Sure,

1882
01:42:53,400 --> 01:42:56,080
Speaker 7: if you do it in the IRA, there's no capital gains. Actually,

1883
01:42:56,160 --> 01:42:58,920
Speaker 7: twelve states have actually gotten rid of capital gains on

1884
01:42:59,000 --> 01:42:59,719
Speaker 7: precious metals.

1885
01:42:59,720 --> 01:43:02,599
Speaker 10: What do you make of this move that some states

1886
01:43:02,640 --> 01:43:04,320
Speaker 10: want to have a goldback currency?

1887
01:43:04,320 --> 01:43:05,559
Speaker 1: Have you seen this Texas?

1888
01:43:05,560 --> 01:43:06,320
Speaker 7: Texas has done it.

1889
01:43:06,400 --> 01:43:09,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, there's this big move right now of states to

1890
01:43:09,120 --> 01:43:13,639
Speaker 10: try to have a metallics based reserve system.

1891
01:43:13,720 --> 01:43:17,200
Speaker 7: Basically, well inherently it makes perfect sense because they're already

1892
01:43:17,240 --> 01:43:21,120
Speaker 7: accepting it for tax in that state, right really, Oh yeah, yeah,

1893
01:43:21,120 --> 01:43:23,000
Speaker 7: there's multiple states. Utah has been doing it for many

1894
01:43:23,080 --> 01:43:23,760
Speaker 7: years and.

1895
01:43:23,760 --> 01:43:25,719
Speaker 1: For where you you could train gold in for your tax.

1896
01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:28,439
Speaker 7: Yeah, and if you think about that, why wouldn't the

1897
01:43:28,479 --> 01:43:31,040
Speaker 7: state want to do that? Like if over the last

1898
01:43:31,080 --> 01:43:34,559
Speaker 7: four years gold is more than doubled, if somebody paid

1899
01:43:34,680 --> 01:43:38,000
Speaker 7: a tax, they're state tax in this and this was

1900
01:43:38,040 --> 01:43:40,280
Speaker 7: sitting at forty five thousand dollars and now it's close

1901
01:43:40,320 --> 01:43:44,040
Speaker 7: to eighty thousand dollars. The state wins, Right, the state went,

1902
01:43:44,080 --> 01:43:46,920
Speaker 7: why would it as opposed to them taking it in cash? Right,

1903
01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:49,920
Speaker 7: because the state's obviously going to keep reserves. That's the

1904
01:43:49,920 --> 01:43:52,920
Speaker 7: whole idea. You keep reserves. So maybe they use cash

1905
01:43:52,960 --> 01:43:54,720
Speaker 7: if people paying tax to pay whatever they need and

1906
01:43:54,760 --> 01:43:56,960
Speaker 7: they keep some of the gold and silver reserves. So

1907
01:43:57,000 --> 01:43:58,479
Speaker 7: I think it makes a lot of sense for a

1908
01:43:58,520 --> 01:44:00,519
Speaker 7: state to want to take an asset that's going to

1909
01:44:00,600 --> 01:44:01,679
Speaker 7: go up in value.

1910

1951
01:46:06,120 --> 01:46:11,320
Speaker 37: It's been along warning and mister besant do we started

1952
01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:14,280
Speaker 37: off with your confirming that you're going to protect taxpayer's

1953
01:46:14,360 --> 01:46:16,240
Speaker 37: ability to file their taxes for.

1954
01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:19,120
Speaker 2: Free directly with the I R S.

1955
01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:21,960
Speaker 37: And I think that's constructive because I think when it

1956
01:46:22,040 --> 01:46:24,880
Speaker 37: works for a second straight year, we're going to begin

1957
01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:28,360
Speaker 37: to join join the rest of the western industrialized world

1958
01:46:28,439 --> 01:46:32,040
Speaker 37: and making sure that our people have a chance to

1959
01:46:32,320 --> 01:46:34,320
Speaker 37: have a system that works for them, that.

1960
01:46:34,360 --> 01:46:36,240
Speaker 17: Empowers them if they choose it.

1961
01:46:36,880 --> 01:46:41,080
Speaker 37: With respect to some other issues, I'm concerned about a

1962
01:46:41,240 --> 01:46:43,320
Speaker 37: number of other matters, and we may need to have

1963
01:46:43,360 --> 01:46:46,160
Speaker 37: some additional conversations about it.

1964
01:46:46,439 --> 01:46:48,840
Speaker 2: What concerned me was your response to my.

1965
01:46:48,880 --> 01:46:55,639
Speaker 38: Question about wealth rather than work with respect to being

1966
01:46:56,160 --> 01:46:57,760
Speaker 38: favored in the tax code.

1967
01:46:57,960 --> 01:47:00,960
Speaker 2: And I think today that's.

1968
01:47:00,720 --> 01:47:04,400
Speaker 37: The reality, that's just plain fact, and the people I

1969
01:47:04,520 --> 01:47:07,639
Speaker 37: represent know it because they pay.

1970
01:47:07,479 --> 01:47:09,479
Speaker 5: Taxes with all their paychecks and.

1971
01:47:09,400 --> 01:47:13,800
Speaker 37: Their pay and a higher rate than people who, as

1972
01:47:13,840 --> 01:47:17,800
Speaker 37: I've indicated today, have good lawyers and good accountants. So

1973
01:47:18,120 --> 01:47:21,479
Speaker 37: I continue to be very troubled by that. And some

1974
01:47:21,560 --> 01:47:25,520
Speaker 37: of the past reforms have tried to minimize those differences

1975
01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:29,200
Speaker 37: between tax rates for wealthy people on tax rates for workers.

1976
01:47:29,280 --> 01:47:31,840
Speaker 2: But I remain concerned.

1977
01:47:31,800 --> 01:47:37,160
Speaker 38: About that, and with respect to some of the other issues,

1978
01:47:38,200 --> 01:47:41,920
Speaker 38: I leave you with the proposition that I haven't really

1979
01:47:42,000 --> 01:47:44,840
Speaker 38: heard you touch on, and it's the proposition that Bill

1980
01:47:44,880 --> 01:47:48,559
Speaker 38: Bradley and I have believed in loth these many years,

1981
01:47:48,640 --> 01:47:52,040
Speaker 38: is we want a tax code that gives everybody in

1982
01:47:52,080 --> 01:47:55,519
Speaker 38: America the chance to get ahead, and with differences like

1983
01:47:55,560 --> 01:47:58,679
Speaker 38: the one I've asked about the difference between the rates

1984
01:47:58,720 --> 01:48:02,519
Speaker 38: for the wealthy and for workers, there's a long way

1985
01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:03,519
Speaker 38: to go to get it done.

1986
01:48:03,560 --> 01:48:06,639
Speaker 2: So look forward to continuing some conversations. Thank yous, Jem,

1987
01:48:08,280 --> 01:48:08,760
Speaker 2: Thank you.

1988
01:48:08,880 --> 01:48:13,320
Speaker 13: Senator Whiten and mister Bessett were toward the very end here,

1989
01:48:13,360 --> 01:48:14,680
Speaker 13: I'll be breed for myself.

1990
01:48:15,439 --> 01:48:17,880
Speaker 2: I want to end where I started out.

1991
01:48:18,680 --> 01:48:22,439
Speaker 13: I think that it's very clear that you have acted

1992
01:48:22,560 --> 01:48:27,439
Speaker 13: in your dealing with the vetting of this committee in

1993
01:48:27,479 --> 01:48:30,600
Speaker 13: a very very straightforward, courteous.

1994
01:48:30,120 --> 01:48:31,240
Speaker 1: And honorable way.

1995
01:48:33,080 --> 01:48:35,400
Speaker 13: When it comes to your qualifications to be the next

1996
01:48:35,439 --> 01:48:37,519
Speaker 13: Secretary of the Treasury, there.

1997
01:48:37,439 --> 01:48:40,480
Speaker 2: Is no room for debate, and you have shown that today.

1998
01:48:40,160 --> 01:48:40,920
Speaker 8: Here in the hearing.

1999
01:48:41,880 --> 01:48:45,800
Speaker 13: Your background, your training, everything is tailor made for this role,

2000
01:48:46,600 --> 01:48:49,479
Speaker 13: and your character and demeanor are self evident. You have

2001
01:48:49,640 --> 01:48:52,280
Speaker 13: satisfied our due diligence process.

2002
01:48:53,200 --> 01:48:54,360
Speaker 17: In prior congresses.

2003
01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:57,040
Speaker 13: I've joined with many of my Republican colleagues and voting

2004
01:48:57,080 --> 01:49:00,760
Speaker 13: for a well qualified Treasury secretary candidates put forward by

2005
01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:04,400
Speaker 13: a Democratic president, even though I didn't agree with all

2006
01:49:04,439 --> 01:49:08,559
Speaker 13: of the positions that they advocated your candidacy ought to

2007
01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:12,400
Speaker 13: enjoy similar support, and I'm going to encourage my colleagues

2008
01:49:12,479 --> 01:49:14,080
Speaker 13: on both sides of the aisle.

2009
01:49:13,880 --> 01:49:14,600
Speaker 2: To join with me.

2010
01:49:28,960 --> 01:49:32,120
Speaker 10: Okay, everybody here with Colin Plume from Noblegoldinvestments dot Com.

2011
01:49:32,240 --> 01:49:36,679
Speaker 10: Let's keep the Scott Besson feed up if we can so, Colin,

2012
01:49:37,080 --> 01:49:38,680
Speaker 10: there were some numbers you were showing me here. Do

2013
01:49:38,680 --> 01:49:40,639
Speaker 10: you want to pull those up? Yeah, they're very interesting.

2014
01:49:41,120 --> 01:49:43,880
Speaker 10: By the way, that's a lot in gold.

2015
01:49:45,439 --> 01:49:45,960
Speaker 7: That's nice.

2016
01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:48,160
Speaker 1: It's a lot of gold. I'll tell you. Make sure

2017
01:49:48,160 --> 01:49:48,760
Speaker 1: you protect that.

2018
01:49:49,080 --> 01:49:51,160
Speaker 10: It looks like Scott Besson has just wrapped up as

2019
01:49:51,200 --> 01:49:53,800
Speaker 10: the cameras are flooding him. That is a wrap for

2020
01:49:53,920 --> 01:49:56,639
Speaker 10: January Madness Committee hearings. What are we looking at here?

2021
01:49:56,720 --> 01:49:56,920
Speaker 2: Yeah?

2022
01:49:57,000 --> 01:50:00,280
Speaker 7: No, I was talking about non financial US firms called

2023
01:50:00,280 --> 01:50:03,240
Speaker 7: eight point four to five trillion debt as of Q three,

2024
01:50:03,320 --> 01:50:06,920
Speaker 7: twenty twenty four. And this is an interesting stack because

2025
01:50:06,920 --> 01:50:09,160
Speaker 7: I always look at these seats. They yield on season

2026
01:50:09,200 --> 01:50:12,200
Speaker 7: triple A rated corporate bonds five point two percent December

2027
01:50:12,240 --> 01:50:17,519
Speaker 7: twenty twenty four, double from December twenty twenty so the

2028
01:50:17,640 --> 01:50:20,040
Speaker 7: rate is high on this. You know, triple A corporate

2029
01:50:20,120 --> 01:50:23,000
Speaker 7: debt is supposed to be the kreminal crime. I mean,

2030
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:25,719
Speaker 7: that's that's your best. They're training at five point two percent.

2031
01:50:26,080 --> 01:50:28,080
Speaker 7: So it's either one or two things that's happening. Either

2032
01:50:28,160 --> 01:50:32,840
Speaker 7: that the the market is saying that they're riskier, right,

2033
01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:34,720
Speaker 7: that's why they're paying such a high yield. They're paying

2034
01:50:34,720 --> 01:50:36,559
Speaker 7: two and a half percent of two point seven before,

2035
01:50:37,320 --> 01:50:40,200
Speaker 7: or they're trying to keep up with with Treasury bonds

2036
01:50:40,439 --> 01:50:42,680
Speaker 7: and what the banks are paying for. I think the

2037
01:50:42,680 --> 01:50:45,280
Speaker 7: average bank's paying between four and four and a quarter,

2038
01:50:46,160 --> 01:50:48,880
Speaker 7: which is really interesting right now. I remember when that happened.

2039
01:50:48,920 --> 01:50:51,679
Speaker 7: Initially everybody was enamored with keeping money in the bank.

2040
01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:55,240
Speaker 7: But now that inflation's probably at three percent or higher,

2041
01:50:55,880 --> 01:50:57,920
Speaker 7: is a four percent of the bank a number that

2042
01:50:58,000 --> 01:51:00,760
Speaker 7: really is good for somebody? Or or they just are

2043
01:51:00,760 --> 01:51:03,800
Speaker 7: they even breaking even? Are they losing money? These are

2044
01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:05,160
Speaker 7: all the things that I look at when I look

2045
01:51:05,200 --> 01:51:07,960
Speaker 7: at the economy. They've sort of got people in love

2046
01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:10,479
Speaker 7: with this four percent return, But you know, when you

2047
01:51:10,520 --> 01:51:12,280
Speaker 7: look at what it takes to live and the cost

2048
01:51:12,280 --> 01:51:15,280
Speaker 7: of living and how everything is astronomically going up, I

2049
01:51:15,320 --> 01:51:16,880
Speaker 7: just don't think four percent is enough.

2050
01:51:17,200 --> 01:51:19,000
Speaker 1: No, it's not for most people.

2051
01:51:19,400 --> 01:51:21,639
Speaker 10: And so the way you look at at your company,

2052
01:51:21,680 --> 01:51:23,280
Speaker 10: what is the what are the type of calls you're

2053
01:51:23,320 --> 01:51:25,240
Speaker 10: receiving right now, give us kind of some of a

2054
01:51:25,280 --> 01:51:28,960
Speaker 10: demographic picture of the incoming you're getting at Noble Gold Investments.

2055
01:51:29,080 --> 01:51:32,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, obviously people are optimistic about the new administration.

2056
01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:35,639
Speaker 7: They're excited about, you know, what's going to happen, and

2057
01:51:36,240 --> 01:51:38,599
Speaker 7: you know, they're hoping that things will happen soon that

2058
01:51:38,600 --> 01:51:40,840
Speaker 7: that you know, wages will go up and things will

2059
01:51:40,880 --> 01:51:44,479
Speaker 7: get better. I do think it's going to take some time,

2060
01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:46,400
Speaker 7: and I do think it's going to take some time

2061
01:51:46,400 --> 01:51:48,479
Speaker 7: for anyone to come in and fix a lot of

2062
01:51:48,520 --> 01:51:50,360
Speaker 7: the problems. He's going to have to come in four

2063
01:51:50,439 --> 01:51:52,400
Speaker 7: years of problems that he's going to have to clean up.

2064
01:51:52,880 --> 01:51:55,680
Speaker 7: So I think people are optimistic. I also think that

2065
01:51:55,920 --> 01:51:58,519
Speaker 7: if you look at some of the proposals, when you

2066
01:51:58,560 --> 01:52:02,240
Speaker 7: talk about inflation, which is rampant right now, is still

2067
01:52:02,280 --> 01:52:05,720
Speaker 7: going you talk about tariffs, you know, tariffs are the

2068
01:52:05,760 --> 01:52:07,719
Speaker 7: reason that no president really wants to take on tariffs.

2069
01:52:07,720 --> 01:52:10,680
Speaker 7: This is really it's a long game, right because it

2070
01:52:11,120 --> 01:52:14,880
Speaker 7: would make certain products more expensive in the short term.

2071
01:52:15,439 --> 01:52:17,080
Speaker 7: And so what we're starting to see is a lot

2072
01:52:17,080 --> 01:52:20,559
Speaker 7: of people buy things now before they think things will

2073
01:52:20,560 --> 01:52:23,080
Speaker 7: go up. I mean, I've seen numbers where they think

2074
01:52:23,120 --> 01:52:25,800
Speaker 7: computers could go an average computer of you know, six

2075
01:52:25,920 --> 01:52:28,200
Speaker 7: hundred dollars could be with a twenty or thirty percent

2076
01:52:28,200 --> 01:52:30,880
Speaker 7: tariff could be seven or eight hundred dollars. So a

2077
01:52:30,880 --> 01:52:33,360
Speaker 7: lot of people are trying to pre buy things before

2078
01:52:33,360 --> 01:52:35,880
Speaker 7: these things could happen for those price upticks where the

2079
01:52:35,960 --> 01:52:38,840
Speaker 7: uptics happen, And so I think that's I think that's smart,

2080
01:52:38,920 --> 01:52:41,639
Speaker 7: and I do think people that are getting early on

2081
01:52:41,680 --> 01:52:44,040
Speaker 7: some of the things that we do will also take advantage.

2082
01:52:44,080 --> 01:52:46,160
Speaker 1: So I don't do any investment advice.

2083
01:52:46,200 --> 01:52:48,439
Speaker 10: I'm legally not allowed to or on you know, federally

2084
01:52:48,479 --> 01:52:51,120
Speaker 10: regulated radio, Nor would I because I'm not there, But

2085
01:52:51,200 --> 01:52:53,400
Speaker 10: I think it's fair to say that. Would you say

2086
01:52:53,439 --> 01:52:56,519
Speaker 10: that in the most durable portfolios, you've seen a pattern

2087
01:52:57,000 --> 01:52:59,479
Speaker 10: that these asset classes have some place in.

2088
01:52:59,479 --> 01:53:01,759
Speaker 1: Those side of portfolios without giving investments.

2089
01:53:02,000 --> 01:53:04,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I always think about this is the class.

2090
01:53:04,120 --> 01:53:07,320
Speaker 7: Whenever you hear about hedge funds and these firms, they

2091
01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:11,920
Speaker 7: always say assets under management. Right, that's the classic term

2092
01:53:12,000 --> 01:53:17,400
Speaker 7: that everybody says. What are assets? Assets are businesses, assets

2093
01:53:17,400 --> 01:53:20,800
Speaker 7: are real estate, assets are precious metals. These are all

2094
01:53:20,840 --> 01:53:25,040
Speaker 7: assets that the wealthy is buying that these big corporations

2095
01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:28,800
Speaker 7: are buying. So everybody is trying to acquire assets. That's

2096
01:53:28,840 --> 01:53:31,320
Speaker 7: the key. That's the key to this next economy. And

2097
01:53:31,760 --> 01:53:34,439
Speaker 7: I think what people need to realize is that a

2098
01:53:34,439 --> 01:53:36,240
Speaker 7: lot of people say this to us, is that things

2099
01:53:36,280 --> 01:53:39,919
Speaker 7: sound and feel expensive. And if they sound and feel expensive,

2100
01:53:39,920 --> 01:53:43,080
Speaker 7: then why is Blackrock buying all these houses? Why are

2101
01:53:43,120 --> 01:53:46,559
Speaker 7: all these institutions picking up properties? You know, in Los Angeles,

2102
01:53:46,640 --> 01:53:49,160
Speaker 7: one of the biggest buyers of commercial real estate apartments

2103
01:53:49,400 --> 01:53:51,800
Speaker 7: is the city of Los Angeles. Wow, the City of

2104
01:53:51,800 --> 01:53:55,200
Speaker 7: Los Angeles just you know Encino Woodland Hills. They just

2105
01:53:55,240 --> 01:53:57,439
Speaker 7: bought a four hundred million dollar apartment body the City

2106
01:53:57,479 --> 01:54:01,920
Speaker 7: of Los Angeles with taxpayer money. They're buying assets. So

2107
01:54:02,080 --> 01:54:05,720
Speaker 7: the key to this new economy, to protecting yourself is

2108
01:54:06,000 --> 01:54:08,400
Speaker 7: it's really an asset economy. That's really what you have

2109
01:54:08,439 --> 01:54:11,040
Speaker 7: to do. And I do think that precious metals plays

2110
01:54:11,040 --> 01:54:13,080
Speaker 7: a part in that, but I think overall it's just

2111
01:54:13,160 --> 01:54:16,640
Speaker 7: assets having a business, having some different income streams and

2112
01:54:16,680 --> 01:54:17,840
Speaker 7: really being diversified.

2113
01:54:17,920 --> 01:54:21,000
Speaker 10: That's that's Noblegold Investments dot Com just repeat any deals
