See, 5 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,799 Speaker 1: we look at those vip emails and we put questions 6 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: to the people making the big decisions up on Capitol 7 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: Hill and in the White House when we can, so 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: we're seeing them all. Send those in, send the talkbacks in. 9 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: Something I want to get into, Clay. The two hearings 10 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: are going on right now, I should say today, not 11 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: right this moment necessarily, but two hearings that were going 12 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: on today on Capitol Hill. One was the Mark Wayne 13 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: Mullen confirmation hearing. I do believe he will be confirmed. 14 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: Senator Ram Paul will be a no vote, as he 15 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,319 Speaker 1: just told us in the last hour. And these two 16 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: guys just don't like each other. That's just where this is. 17 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: There are people who you know, Clay, I mean, some 18 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: people don't like me, which I find unfathomable. But there 19 00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: are people who don't even know me. You don't like 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: me in some people very few people know me, don't 21 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: like me. 22 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,639 Speaker 2: But you know, even. 23 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 1: Clay Travis as as affable a fellow as he is. 24 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: I'm sure there are I don't know, some woke sports 25 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:11,559 Speaker 1: writers out there who. 26 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 3: Are lots of them actually hate me. 27 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, just just don't like you, and they say 28 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: mean things about my friend Clay, and then I want 29 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: to fight them. 30 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: But you know, it's okay. 31 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: People have their disputes, and of course the Senators will 32 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 1: weigh in on what they think about all this with 33 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: their votes, with their confirmation votes. So we put it 34 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: out there we will have Senator all and on after 35 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: he assuming he's confirmed, or either way actually just to 36 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: get if he wants to. He may not come on, 37 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: by the way. He might say, Look, everything that's needed 38 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: had to be said was said. But we're not. We're 39 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: not taking some position on this other than letting these 40 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: two important voices in the Republican Party have that discussion. 41 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, we've already reached out to his team and 42 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: so you know he's welcome to come on. Okay, A 43 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: couple of things here. First, one is the so Tulci 44 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: Gabbard is testifying on the Hill. I want to get 45 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: to her some of her testimony. D And I I 46 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: don't even think I agree with Tulsa Gabbard necessarily on 47 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: a whole range of foreign policy issues. 48 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: But I do like her as a person. 49 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: I think she's an ethical, good person, and I think 50 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: she's a patriot, so that informs my judgment of her. 51 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: I feel the same way about Joe Ken. I think 52 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: he's a patriot. I think that he is given a 53 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: lot to this country, and I don't really like people 54 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: throwing that to the wayside over a policy dispute on 55 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: the right. 56 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 2: So quickly, I'm seeing a little bit of that. 57 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: You can say Joe Ken is wrong, you can say 58 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: Joe Ken is crazy for what he's putting forward on 59 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: this Iran war. 60 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:35,839 Speaker 2: That's up to you. 61 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: But the guy served, and the guy lost his wife 62 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: who was serving in a ford deployed you know combat, 63 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: you know, combat enabling role. So let's all just maintain 64 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: that level of I think earned respect that the guy has. Again, 65 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: you want to trash his resignation or you think it's 66 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: a bad idea, that's fine, But people are saying things 67 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: like you know, I'm not even gonna say they're saying, 68 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: but they're saying crazy stuff. The guy's not a trader. 69 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: Caroline Levitt spoke about this. This is cut nine. Let's 70 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: hear what she had to say about the Joe Kent 71 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: resignation from NCTC director. 72 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 4: He said he always thought Joe Kent was a good guy. 73 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 4: Obviously has a commendable military record and experience. However, he 74 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 4: was not someone who was involved in the Presidential Daily 75 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 4: brief part of the president's intelligence briefings over the last 76 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 4: several months. Have not seen him here at the White 77 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 4: House for quite some time, and the President feels it's 78 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 4: deeply disappointing that after the President gave him an opportunity 79 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 4: in this administration to serve the American people, that he 80 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 4: would resign it with a letter filled with falsehoods accusing 81 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 4: the President of the United States by being controlled by 82 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 4: a foreign country. That's both insulting and laughable all at 83 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 4: the same time. The president is the leader of the 84 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 4: most powerful country and military in the world. Nobody tells 85 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 4: him what to do. 86 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: Now, this is basically Clay what we were saying. I mean, 87 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: I even said this. I'm like, no one tells Trump 88 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: what to do. I said that yesterday. No one puts 89 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: baby in a corner, no one tells Trump what to do. 90 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: But the way that this was handled by Carolin Levitt 91 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: here from the White House. I think this is totally 92 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: totally within bounds, totally on point, which is he's a 93 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: good guy. I think he loves America. He's over his 94 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: skis on this one. It's a shame he didn't do 95 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: more with the role. 96 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: And you know, people are allowed to disagree. This is America. 97 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: You know, nothing nasty or personal, but saying he's off 98 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: on this one, and you know that's that. 99 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 5: This is why we played the audio from the nineteen 100 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 5: eighties yesterday, because I think there are a lot of 101 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 5: things you can say about President Trump. 102 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 3: If you disagree with him. 103 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 5: He's at the behest of anyone, or they can bully 104 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 5: him into doing anything. 105 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: I think is completely and utterly untrue. The idea that 106 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: there's anyone who could bully President Trump. I don't think 107 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: there's anyone on the planet who could bully President Trump 108 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: into anything that he. 109 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 5: Didn't otherwise want to do, right, Can you, which is 110 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 5: the job of the president. Can you sit down in 111 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 5: front of President Trump and say, hey, this is why 112 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 5: we believe we need to strike Iran, or why the 113 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,239 Speaker 5: Venezuela decision makes sense. But you've been in these rooms, 114 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 5: you briefed the president. We really want the president to 115 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 5: get a wide variety of perspectives so that he can hear, marinate, 116 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 5: think about different arguments, and then he's the ultimate decider. 117 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 5: And you, I'm sure have seen a lot of times 118 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 5: when people in positions of power have been pitched on 119 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 5: two divergent perspectives. 120 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: I'm not a big fan personally. 121 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 5: This is just me of, Hey, I disagree with something 122 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 5: someone did, so I'm going to go public and everybody 123 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 5: needs to know that I disagree. That's my personal opinion. Like, 124 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 5: if we work for iHeart, if I Heart made a 125 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 5: decision one day that I disagreed with, I wouldn't come 126 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 5: on the radio and be like, I can no longer 127 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 5: work here. 128 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 3: I would make my pitch. Other people make decisions. I 129 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 3: don't fro the. 130 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: If all of our radio stations invaded Greenland simultaneously and 131 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: we thought there was like a human rights issue, it 132 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: might be a little different. 133 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 2: But yes. 134 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 5: And also, by the way, some people out there are like, oh, 135 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 5: you know, I don't really buy that anybody inside of 136 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 5: the Trump team can be bought and paid for anyone. 137 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 5: I'm one hundred percent certain that Trump is not bought 138 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 5: and paid for by Israel, which is actually insulting to 139 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 5: Trump to me to argue that a foreign country could 140 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 5: bully or buy and pay him into doing anything. 141 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: But I think that this and that's I appreciated. 142 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: You know, Carolin Levit's obviously excellent at her job, and 143 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: she's speaking on behalf of the White House. But I 144 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: think she's really summarizing very well what Trump's feelings about 145 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: this are, which is Joe Kent, good guy. Thought he'd 146 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: be a good member of the team. He loves his country, 147 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: and he's a brave dude, and I respect that. On 148 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: this he's gone a little whack of do and it's 149 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: good that he's leaving. Are that he didn't find a 150 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: way to operate better within the team, I think he's wrong, 151 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: But it's not this is a person that everybody should like, 152 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: malign and think ill of going forward. It's this is 153 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: a departure, you know, to your point, Clay, Look, he 154 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: believed he didn't he was a post to the Iran War. 155 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: He was somebody who didn't want intervention in Iran. He's 156 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: a non interventionist and he's a guy who has been 157 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: out there getting shot at during the intervention. So you know, 158 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: I think he's allowed to very much allowed to have 159 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: his opinion and have his opinion heard on this. He 160 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: didn't change his mind or something on this last minute. 161 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: He's not a fit for where the administration Isn't this. 162 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: I actually think people resigning and saying this is why 163 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: I'm resigning is a good thing instead of if the 164 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: alternative is remember Trump term one. There are these people 165 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: like the guy who wrote that, like Resistance editorial, I'm 166 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: staying in the machine to thwart Trump. 167 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 3: But no, that's wrong. You should not be doing that. 168 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: I just I think the part of this that has 169 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: rubbed some people very much the wrong way is the 170 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: some of the insinuation about the reasons for Trump doing 171 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: this as it pertains to Israel and the Israeli lobby 172 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: in this country, and people are very sensitive about that. 173 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 2: That's just the truth. 174 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: People get very sensitive about that because there's some really 175 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: crazy stuff that people say around those lines too. But 176 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: I think that the way the White House has handled 177 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: this is, at least from this statement from Caroline Levitt, 178 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: totally respectful and within bounds. It's a slapdown on the issue, 179 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: but it's not a slapdown of the man Joe Kent's 180 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: not a bad guy, He's wrong on this. Do you 181 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: see the posts that I mean, first of all, there's 182 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: a very anti Israel element that is active online that 183 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: isn't actually very representative of the nation as a whole. 184 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: But there are a lot of people who will say, oh, 185 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: you're I mean, because they'll say President Trump is corrupted. 186 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: Do you see in the comments anytime anybody says anything 187 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: positive about Israel, they're like, you got paid seven thousand 188 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: dollars for this tweet? 189 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,239 Speaker 3: Have you seen this? Like that's like echoing everywhere. 190 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, they definitely don't know how much you sold out 191 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: kick for because seven grand isn't getting at I'm telling you're. 192 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 5: Just gonna say I wouldn't do anything for seven grand, 193 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 5: much less sell an opinion for seven grand. I mean, 194 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 5: some of this stuff is just the conspiracy theories out 195 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 5: there are crazy and again it's really wild. I think historically, 196 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 5: when we write about this, the fact that a lot 197 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 5: of people decided after October seventh that somehow Israel was 198 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 5: the instigator and the bad guy of everything that has 199 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 5: happened since, I think it's just a total bastardization of 200 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 5: what has truly occurred, and also a function that is 201 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 5: misreading what actually has occurred, which is Hamas thought that 202 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 5: they were going to be able to severely disable Israel 203 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 5: in many ways. Instead, buck think about this, Hamas, the 204 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 5: houtis Hesbola, now the Iranian, the Ayatola himself, every one 205 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 5: of Israel's terroristic foes has been decapitated, almost on a 206 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 5: literal level as a result of the October seventh attacks. 207 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 5: Israel is in a stronger position than it's ever been before, 208 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 5: I think. 209 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: And Saudi Gulf states are more friendly toward Israeli security 210 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: and a better future for the region than they ever 211 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: have been before. Major Sunni Arab countries, most notably Saudi Arabia, 212 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: but other Sunni Arab allies in the region are The 213 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: craziest part of this is, or maybe you know, the 214 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: most ironic part of it is that hamas is horrific 215 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: nine to eleven style terror attack could end up resulting 216 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: in the most pacified Middle East. Yes, we have seen 217 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 1: in our lifetime. Now that's a could, that's not is yet. 218 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: We're obviously still bombing Iran, but you look at what's 219 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: gone on with the enemies of Yes, the enemies of Israel. 220 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 2: But notice the enemies of Israel. 221 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: It's not like Israel has beef with Hesbelah and America's like, 222 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: you know who, We really like Hezbolah because we remember 223 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: the Marine Beyroot bombings, you know, the Marine Barracks bombings 224 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: in Beirut. 225 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 2: We remember what. 226 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: Hesbela has been doing in the region, in Syria and 227 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: around the world. Like, it's not like Israel's enemies are 228 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: are groups that we go man, They're doing a lot 229 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: of nice charity work. And why is Israel so harsh 230 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: on them? There are enemies too, Yeah, and they would 231 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: kill us just as quickly as they would kill Israeli's 232 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: I mean, that is just an observation of reality. 233 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 2: So I wanted to get into some of the Islamist threats. 234 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 3: Can we get it? 235 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: Let's hold it because I want to come back. Cut six. 236 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: You see their clay Gez Tulci Gabbert again, I like, 237 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: you know, and I tell you I like Tulci, I 238 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: like Jokta's people, So you know, take that for what 239 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: it is, Tulsi Gabbert going after the spread of Islamism. 240 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: Let's play when we come back in a second, because 241 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: I think people should hear that this is still a 242 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: real concern or real problem, and something that we should 243 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: think of as a top national security issue to be tackled. 244 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 3: No doubt, we'll play that for you when we come back. 245 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 5: Cut six.

I believe cut six, 287 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 6: Tulsi gabbered. If I'm not mistaken, listen. 288 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 7: The spread of Islamist's ideology, in some cases led by 289 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 7: individuals and organizations associated with the Muslim Brotherhood, poses a 290 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 7: fundamental threat to freedom and the foundational principles that underpin 291 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 7: Western civilization. Isamis groups and individuals use this ideology for 292 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 7: recruiting and financial support for terrorist groups and individuals around 293 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 7: the world, and to advance their political objectives of establishing 294 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 7: an Islamist caliphate which governs based on Sharia. They're increasing 295 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 7: examples of this in various European countries. In President Trump's 296 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,239 Speaker 7: designation of certain Muslim Brotherhood chapters as foreign terroirist organizations 297 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 7: is a mechanism to secure Americans against this threat. In 298 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 7: response to setbacks to their capabilities of conducting large scale, 299 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 7: complex attacks, Islamist terrorist groups have shifted toward focusing on 300 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 7: executing information operations to spread propag and inspire or enable 301 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 7: individuals located in or with access to the West. 302 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 5: So still a problem, yes, And again what I would say, 303 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 5: if you want to be optimistic about things, we were 304 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 5: just talking about the continued fallout of October seven, twenty 305 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 5: twenty three. As we come up on what two and 306 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 5: a half years basically since that terror attack, I'm not 307 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 5: sure that we have ever had a potential for a 308 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 5: more secure and more stable Middle East in any of 309 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 5: our lives than where we are right now. 310 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 3: Now. 311 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 5: That doesn't mean that there may not be a great 312 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 5: deal of tumult for the rest of March, for the 313 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 5: rest of April and May. But I do think if 314 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 5: you get the Abraham Accord signed on to by Saudi 315 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 5: Arabia and they normalize relations with Israel, the call the 316 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 5: guest we had on yesterday, I think is so important. Psychologically, 317 00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 5: Iran has been left behind. Iran has been completely and 318 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 5: totally left behind by its peer groups. In fact, a 319 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 5: lot of countries that were beneath Iran in terms of economics, 320 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 5: and that's embarrassing and somewhat humiliating to many people who 321 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 5: live in Iran. And so it's one thing if the 322 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 5: United States is wealthier, or if even if Israel is wealthier, 323 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 5: but when Saudi Arabia is wealthier, when Qatar is wealthier, 324 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 5: when the UAE is wealthier. That's a form of failure 325 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,119 Speaker 5: and falling behind your peer countries. 326 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 3: And I do think that that is. 327 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 5: Going to in many ways motivate a long term positive response. Now, 328 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 5: what we just talked about is how long does President 329 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 5: Trump want to be bombing Iran? How many of these 330 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 5: guys are going to be taken out. Israel seems to 331 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 5: have buck a stronger predisposition towards changing regime than the 332 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 5: President does and the United States does, which is why 333 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 5: most of the strikes that you're seeing from the United 334 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 5: States have to do with military infrastructure from and at 335 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 5: this point, most of the strikes from Israel have to 336 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 5: do with checking leadership off the board, taking people out. 337 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 5: And I do think that is a reconciliation that is 338 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 5: going to have to be determined at some point in time. 339 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 5: President Trump wants this to be over, I think earlier 340 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 5: than Israel would prefer. 341 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: I also think that even if it isn't a different 342 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: regime in place when this is all over, at least 343 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: this phase is over, there will be going forward in 344 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: any negotiation. Don't play games with us, guys, Yeah, don't 345 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: play games don't don't think you're going to do anything 346 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: and get away with it. At least under this president, 347 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: you are not going to get away with it, and 348 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 1: you will pay a terrible price for any nonsense. There 349 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: is advantage in that, there is value in that concept, 350 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: and Trump knows that. 351 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: All right. 352 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: Very reliable cell phone for a cell phone service at 353 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: the most reasonable price.

Same thing California. 392 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: California's got so many taxes, all kinds of problems. Kathy Hochel, 393 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: who is honestly somebody that you wouldn't want in charge 394 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: of the bakes sale for the PTA, not even the PTA. 395 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: You wouldn't want her running the bake sale to raise money, 396 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: like you would not want this woman in charge of 397 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: anything of any consequence whatsoever. She'd be burning the zucchini bread, 398 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: There's no question about it. And here she is telling 399 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: people that they need to move back to New York. 400 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: Wealthy people need to move back to New York so 401 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: they can fund welfare programs in New York. 402 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 2: Play eight. 403 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 8: There's this anxiety which is real. And we're continuing to 404 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 8: address the affordability crisis, which I believe she'd be the 405 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 8: number one priority of this legislative session. What can we 406 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 8: do to take off some of that pain that New 407 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 8: Yorkers are feeling that I hear about literally every day. 408 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 8: What I want to make sure we are smart about 409 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 8: is having a system in place where it's not just 410 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 8: taxing for the sake of taxing, and being conscious of 411 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 8: the facts that I need people who are high net 412 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 8: worth to support the generous social programs that we want 413 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 8: to have in our state. Right now, there are some 414 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,479 Speaker 8: patriotic millionaires who stepped up. Okay, cut me the checks. 415 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 8: I mean, just if you want to be supportive, but 416 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 8: maybe the first step should be go down to Palm 417 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 8: Beach and see what you can bring back home. 418 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: I mean, she's saying Florida, Florida, has stolen her cash 419 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: cows and a lot of them are in Pombeas. 420 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 2: Why of them are in Miami Beach. Let me tell you. 421 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: I got neighbors and they're in del Rey, and they're 422 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: in Boca Hey, a lot of places around here and Clay. 423 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 2: This is really I appreciate this. 424 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: She is so unsophisticated in so many ways that she's 425 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: just saying the truth here, which is New York or 426 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: former New Yorkers, please move back to New York so 427 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: you can be milked like the cows you are for 428 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 1: the welfare state that is her pase. 429 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 5: And so we've told you this and it is going 430 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 5: too long. Range mean that states like Tennessee, Florida, Texas. 431 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 5: Zero state income tax states are going to be far 432 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 5: more effective and well run than super high income tax 433 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 5: states that are losing. As you just heard Kathy Hokel say, 434 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 5: a lot of the base that has paid for all 435 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 5: of the government to exist. What was the data point 436 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 5: you gave us Buck that New York I think has 437 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 5: a little bit fewer people now than Florida. Right, But 438 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 5: Florida's government is half the size of New York's. Well, 439 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 5: Florida's budget is half the size of New York's budget, 440 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 5: and Florida has two to three million more residents as 441 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 5: a state, two three million. By the way, there are 442 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 5: a lot of states that barely have two or three 443 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 5: million residents. And as a general rule, how would you say, 444 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 5: as a Florida resident that the Florida budget and the 445 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 5: governance is at running the money that they get, at 446 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 5: basically managing the taxpayer dollars. 447 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: Everything that involves the State of Florida is more efficient, 448 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: more reasonable, more saying compared to New York state level governance. Everything, 449 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: everything is easier, everything is smoother, everything makes more sense. Miami, 450 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: things get a little Third world down here. But State 451 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 1: of Florida fantastic. 452 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 5: Okay, So, but building on that, you mentioned this stat 453 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 5: earlier and I saw it. My jaw dropped. It's rare 454 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 5: that I see a stat and I'm like, oh my, 455 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 5: I can't believe this is real. New York is at 456 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 5: New York City is spending more money than the average 457 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 5: New Yorker makes on homeless people. 458 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 3: What is this math? Buck? 459 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 5: Eighty one thousand dollars a year, I believe was the 460 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 5: Uh So, all of you out there, you worked a 461 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 5: long time when not making eighty one thousand dollars a year, Buck, 462 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 5: I worked a long time not making eighty one thousand dollars. 463 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: Ye aspired to eighty one thousand. I was like, oh 464 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: my gosh, think about life at eighty k. Yes, this 465 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: is true. 466 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 5: A lot of you out there are aspiring to life 467 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 5: at eighty k. 468 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 3: Right. 469 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 5: That's a lot of money. That is what New York 470 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 5: is spending on homeless people. And you made this analogy earlier. 471 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 5: How many of you out there listening to us right 472 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 5: now in New York are busting your asses all day 473 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 5: long and you're not making eighty one k and you're 474 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 5: looking around and you're saying, wait a minute, what is 475 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 5: the state doing that? They're providing eighty one k a 476 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 5: year in support for homeless people. This is just so 477 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 5: flagrantly flawed. I mean, it's it would be better off, 478 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 5: and this would be an awful idea. But if the 479 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 5: entire government just got out of the way and they 480 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 5: just gave eighty seventy eight thousand dollars in cash, you 481 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 5: would save money if you just walked up and gave 482 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 5: seventy eight thousand dollars in cash to every homeless person. 483 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: I also, by the way, there's nothing there's nothing inherently 484 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 1: derogatory about the term homeless. Yeah, people clearly don't have homes. 485 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: This whole thing about unsheltered. Now noun housed is race 486 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,479 Speaker 1: to un sheltered, is the other the same thing. No, 487 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, we're not doing this, Okay. The reason they're 488 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 1: doing this is because homeless homelessness and homeless realities across 489 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: this country. People have learned more about this. They've started 490 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: to understand that almost all of the homeless, the truly 491 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: homeless population, almost all have either extreme substance abuse or 492 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: extreme mental health, or a combination of both issues and disorders. 493 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: The stories that you hear about a family of four 494 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: kicked out of their home, down on their luck. 495 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 3: That can happen. It does happen. I get it. 496 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: It is rare, and they don't stay homeless because there 497 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: are programs and there are you know this notion thankfull, 498 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,360 Speaker 1: I mean, but there are things to help people get 499 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: back on their feet, and they tend to do so. 500 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: The real homelessness issue is people with severe mental health 501 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: and severe addiction issues. Overwhelmingly, so the stories about someone 502 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 1: lost their job, they're down on their luck one percent 503 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: of the unhoused or homeless population at any point in 504 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: time five percent. Maybe I think that might be too much. 505 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 1: It's people with those problems. Now, those are human beings 506 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: who deserve help too. I'm not saying otherwise. My point though, 507 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: is they're changing the definition truly, or they're changing the 508 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 1: terms we use of homeless because they don't want people 509 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: to think about the discussions about Like Gavin Newsom said 510 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: he's gonna lower homelessness, that was the term he was 511 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: using in California over a ten year period, it's like doubled. 512 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, So they're changing the words. So it's like a 513 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 3: new problem now, right, It's. 514 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: Like, oh, well, we're not dealing with the homelessness thing 515 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 1: Clay because we completely failed. Now we're dealing with the 516 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: unhoused population. And here's the other thing. Eighty one thousand. 517 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 1: This is from the Comptroller of New York. This is 518 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 1: you know, right wing angry blogger dot net or something. 519 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: This is from the Controller of New York. Eighty one 520 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year per homeless person in New York. 521 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 3: Well, why are we spending I mean, think about should 522 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 3: we just give a check? 523 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: Should we give a check for half of that forty 524 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: grand in cash to every homeless person one time payment? 525 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 5: There you go some it'll actually cut half of the 526 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 5: expenditures to your point. 527 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 3: And you know what's a big part of this. 528 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 5: There are a lot of people who are doing nothing 529 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 5: to actually help homelessness that are being paid a lot 530 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 5: of money inside of that eighty one downslid. 531 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: Where you get this is the ugly true, This is 532 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: the ugliness of it. Okay, we're seeing this, my friends. 533 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: Some people are gonna really start to pull these dots together. 534 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: I also think this is part of why Elon just 535 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: with the whole Doge thing, had kind of a like 536 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: a thermonuclear meltdown of there's just so much fraud and 537 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: so much waste and so. 538 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 5: Much crap that it was nobody thinks it, unlike in 539 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 5: a business where you would have as somebody look at 540 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 5: it and say, we can't run a business like that. 541 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 3: We need that for our country and for our government. 542 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: I think Elon was truly just overwhelmed by the scale 543 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: of this and in his you know, his brain is 544 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: able to tackle these things at scale, and he's just like, 545 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: this is completely this monster is one hundred times larger 546 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: than I even realize. 547 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 2: Anyway. 548 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: A big part of this, notice Clay, the uh autistic 549 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: like an autistic kids pros, the child daycare Somali. I'm talking, 550 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: look at the autistic kids thing, and that's in California. 551 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: I think they've started to looking at the spending on 552 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: these programs has gone absolutely stratospheric in recent years. 553 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:15,719 Speaker 2: This is fraud, my friends. 554 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,640 Speaker 1: People are being paid a lot of money to do 555 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: nothing of public benefit, and they're getting taxpayer dollars to 556 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: do this. And you know why the Democrats keep this going. 557 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: It's a giant cash cow for their constituents. What do 558 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: you think if you walk into some city funded homelessness 559 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: program in New York, what do you think the voting 560 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: record are the people that are getting checks from the 561 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 1: city to run the program. What do you think of 562 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: vote I bet it's ninety five ninety nine percent Democrat. 563 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: It's just like the public school systems have become now Clay. 564 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: This is about vote harvesting, this is about donations. This 565 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: is power for the Democrat Party. There is a homeless 566 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 1: industrial complex now essentially of all these NGOs and bureaucrats 567 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: getting paid to not actually fix the problem. 568 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 5: And this is also ties in with the healthcare system 569 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 5: being broken. There was a Wall Street Journal editorial saying 570 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 5: ninety nine percent of one state. I think it was 571 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 5: Ohio of the fraud analysis, it was all fraud ninety 572 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 5: nine percent. I also think, again, this goes to healthcare. 573 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 5: Nobody knows what it costs. The government funds a ton 574 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 5: of it, doesn't look at spending. There are people being 575 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 5: paid six hundred dollars an hour to do autistic rehab 576 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 5: that didn't actually have any kids with autism. I also 577 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 5: think this ties in with an interesting question. We keep 578 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 5: talking about how the number of kids with autism has skyrocketed. 579 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 3: That's certainly true. 580 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 5: How much of the autism diagnosises that we are seeing 581 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 5: are completely made up and a function of being able 582 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 5: to make money at four or five and six hundred 583 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 5: dollars to do autism therapy. 584 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 3: I mean some of these companies. 585 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 5: You saw what happened in Minnesota, but I think the 586 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 5: same thing is happening in California. These companies don't even 587 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 5: have a physical location. They have a PO box and 588 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 5: they're getting paid millions of dollars a year. They're not 589 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 5: even pretending, just like you saw with the Somali daycares thing, 590 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 5: remember Buck, It is interesting. No one has come out 591 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 5: that I've seen and said, hey, my family lost daycare. 592 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 5: Leave aside whether you think the government should be involved 593 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 5: in Smali daycares at all. If they were actually doing 594 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 5: Somali daycare, wouldn't tons of people have come out and said, 595 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 5: oh my goodness. 596 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 3: The kids daycare. I can't go, I can't. 597 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 5: Go to I haven't seen anything about this. This was 598 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 5: all a sham, and it's a function of government not 599 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 5: being well run enough for people to notice where all 600 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 5: the money is going. It's just it's infuriating for anybody 601 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 5: out there that pays taxes. 602 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 3: It really is. 603 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: It's it's astonishing and what you realize is that and 604 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: this is a This is a pretty stark realization, but 605 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: it's true. We think about fixing this. Not only are 606 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: Democrats unwilling to fix it, they don't want it to 607 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: be fixed. Yes, they believe that this is a redistribution 608 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: of wealth to people who should get the money. They 609 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: want homeless administrators on the city, you know, getting getting 610 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: their budget paid for by the city, by the taxpayers. 611 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 1: They want them making three four six hundred grand. 612 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 5: To know how crazy it is that New York is 613 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 5: spending more money, more than eighty one thousand dollars. 614 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 3: A year for every homeless person. I mean, it should 615 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 3: be infuriating. 616 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: Every average household New York City, people who are working, 617 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: people who are showing up. 618 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 2: And we've all been there. 619 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: I have showed up to jobs on mornings where I 620 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,719 Speaker 1: hated so much I thought I was going to throw up. 621 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 2: I mean, just like I'm not making any money.

Think about this, How 631 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: can that be possible? Where's all the money going? We 632 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: know what it is in the public school system. The 633 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: public school system in New York pays more than most 634 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: private schools cost across the country per pupil. 635 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 2: You know where the money goes. 636 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: Bloated administrators making one hundred and fifty grand to show up, 637 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: sit at a desk, do nothing all day.

And you know, 652 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 1: what the game is at the end of all this 653 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: play federal bailout. It's coming. You get a gay of 654 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: a Newsom administration. What do you think he's gonna leave 655 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: California high and dry with its budget deficit? 656 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 9: Oh? 657 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 3: No, more the way. 658 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,239 Speaker 5: That's a good point because thankfully most states have to 659 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 5: have balanced budgets, but a lot of cities have ended 660 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 5: up going bankrupt, and again the federal government doesn't.
