I think 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: he's in Disney World or one of those places. I'm 11 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: not sure where he is today, but we're all hoping 12 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:35,879 Speaker 1: he's having a great time with the fam. He'll be 13 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,279 Speaker 1: back with us, as we know, a week from tomorrow. 14 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: So it's just going to be me informing you, entertaining you, 15 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,160 Speaker 1: rolling with you here for a week. So looking forward 16 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,840 Speaker 1: to getting to chat with you. All the calls, the talkbacks, 17 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: we love them. Both. Give us light us up on 18 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: those lines and send those talkbacks. Let's lay out where 19 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: we're going today on the show real quick. So you know, 20 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: some stuff coming out on the FBI and there's a 21 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: little bit of pushback I think from some people on 22 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: the right, our Director Patel and Deputy Director bon Gino 23 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: moving fast enough? Are they doing the things? I was 24 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: on Fox earlier this morning with Dana Perino, who's always 25 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: so lovely, like such a nice person and very good broadcaster, 26 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: and we were talking about this issue. I want to 27 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: address it a bit because I think that there's a 28 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: little bit of expectations management that our side should have. 29 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: Not in terms of result, no, no, we all agree 30 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: on the results, but in terms of timing, we need 31 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: to give the people the time that they need. Speaking 32 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: of which, Elon has said that his time is a 33 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: special government employee has come to a conclusion. He put 34 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: this out on x the platform that he owns, which 35 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: now is actually a free speech platform. As my scheduled 36 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: time as a special government employee comes to an end, 37 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: I would like to thank President or Trump for the 38 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to reduce wasteful spending. The DOGE mission will only 39 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: strengthen over time as it becomes a way of life 40 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: throughout the government. So Elon is going to go back 41 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: to being the most important single CEO. And you know, business, 42 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: I don't like the term of thought leader right because 43 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: it's like the thought leader I mean, the guy is 44 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: a thought leader, but I don't like to use that term. 45 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: But he's going to go back to doing the full 46 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: Elon routine, which is going to be I think great 47 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: for SpaceX, for Tesla, for X, for Boring Company, for 48 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: all the things that he is involved in. So this 49 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: is where we get into a little bit speaking of 50 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: expectations management of they've done what they could do. He 51 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: did not unilaterally and this was known all along. He 52 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: does not unilaterally have the authority the power. Doge didn't 53 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: have to just say these cuts are going into effect 54 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: money that Congress has appropriated. If Congress says this, uh, 55 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: you know, this program for fiscal year twenty twenty five 56 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: has ten million dollars or ten billion dollars, Doge couldn't 57 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 1: just come along and say, yeah, they don't have ten 58 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: billion dollars anymore. But this is where recisions come in. 59 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: This also goes to our conversations over the big Beautiful Bill. 60 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: There's been a little bit of pushback here, including from 61 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: some of the most pro Trump voices you will find 62 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: in the Senate and just in general, who are saying, hey, Trump, 63 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: I love you with all respect, You're doing great things. 64 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: We all get that. This isn't like some never trumpy 65 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: wine fest you'd think, but like, and I like the 66 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: way you said it. No, that's for libs, that's for 67 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: fake Republicans. Uh, this is just about Okay, it's halftime, 68 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: or it's not even halftime, to be clear, it's early. 69 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: It's a time out in the first quarter. All this 70 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: administration and we're all huddled together, and some of us 71 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: are saying, Hey, Trump, thank you for being the quarterback. 72 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: But you know, can you hit that guy on the 73 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: button hook? Clay would be proud, by the way. I'm 74 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,839 Speaker 1: just gonna say, look at that button hook. But yeah, 75 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying that that's the mentality, or 76 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: rather that's the the rationale behind some of the pushback 77 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: on this from people like Senator Ron Johnson, people like 78 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: Senator Ran Paul. They're on board for the mission, but 79 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: they want to shape this. And this is why it 80 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: goes to the Senate. I bring it up because you know, 81 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: yesterday I said we can't let the perfect of the 82 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: enemy of the good. And I think I'm trying to 83 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: so many administrations said it later that day. I'm trying 84 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: to remember. I don't want to misquote. But somebody I 85 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: heard somebody else say it. I'm like, oh, yeah, that's right. 86 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: They listened to this show. So I'm happy to happy 87 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: to help, happy to help. And if that means I 88 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: throw around a cliche that somebody else will have in 89 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: their head later, great. But we've talked about the process 90 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: and Steven Miller I read his post on the big 91 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: beautiful Bill still in process, and there are big things 92 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: in this bill that will affect us, that will affect 93 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: your family budget, that will affect the business that you 94 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: own or that you work for in your town. I mean, 95 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: there's this real stuff, right. This isn't sitting around arguing 96 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: about the naming of the next post office in Topeka. 97 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: No offense Topeka. But this is about big economic issue, 98 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: structural issues, and setting the economy on a footing that 99 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: will allow it to get to the best possible places, right, 100 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: I mean tremendous prosperity, which I'm very confident in. You. 101 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: I have not been gloom and doom about the Trump 102 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: economy since he won that election for one moment, for 103 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: one day, even when oh the Trump procession is here, 104 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: all the market is dropped, you can go back and 105 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: listen to those shows. We're like I kept saying, he 106 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: knows what he's doing. Everyone just who's freaking out needs 107 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: to as I believe they would say here in South Florida, tranquilo. 108 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: Everyone just needs to calm down. It's fine, okay, nothing 109 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: terrible has happened. He knows what he's doing. Part of 110 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: the complaints about the big beautiful Bill, though, have been 111 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: on where is where are the cuts? Where is DOGE 112 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: and the ethos of DOGE being made real? And this 113 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: is where you have OMB Director Russell Vaught, who was 114 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: on the Cudlow Show saying that yes, in fact, the 115 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: administration is sending a recisions package to Congress. Let's hear 116 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: it from the OMB director himself, play for I can. 117 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: We'll be sending that up on Monday or Tuesday, whenever 118 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 2: the House is back in session. They will get our 119 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 2: first Decisions bill. And again this has been we're proposed, 120 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 2: and we've talked about it. We want to make sure 121 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 2: that Congress passes its first recisions bill, including the DOGE, 122 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 2: and we will send more if they pass it. And 123 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 2: so this is the first one is Foreign Aid. USAID 124 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: cuts many of the waste and garbage that was funding 125 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 2: not only wasteful but hurting our foreign policy, but also 126 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: the Corporation for Public Broadcasting at NPR will be sending 127 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: that up. And we're working with Congress and we've had 128 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,559 Speaker 2: good conversations to make sure that they knew what was coming. 129 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: They had some input is to changes that could be 130 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 2: made to make it something that could pass the House, 131 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 2: and we're excited for that to occur next week. 132 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: There you have it. I said, hold on a second, 133 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: where are the doge cuts in the big beautiful bill. 134 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: And Stephen Miller, who understands this process as well as 135 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: anybody because he is look, he is at the center 136 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: of what's going on in this White House. He is 137 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: absolutely dialed in and he explained it to everybody and 138 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: he said, look, this is how it has to happen 139 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: within the system. And let's be honest, even if you 140 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: follow government and politics for a living, some of this 141 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: stuff unless you I'll tell you this, some members of 142 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: Congress don't even know this stuff that well. Their staff 143 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: members do. Their staffers do, and they brief them on it, 144 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: but they're like, wait, I gotta do that. The who's 145 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: the what's it here? How does this work? Steven Miller 146 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: came out and said, here is what has to happen 147 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: for the cuts to become real and final or to 148 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: come to fruition. And now that process has gone to 149 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: the next step. And now you'll see, Okay, does usaid, 150 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: does the budget? Does Congress do what it's supposed to do? 151 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: Does PBS get its government funding cut? I have I 152 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 1: think the most perfect argument about this of anybody or 153 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,439 Speaker 1: anyone else is welcome to the bar. But I like to 154 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: make arguments that other people can borrow them. That's fine. 155 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: I just want the truth to win. But PBS and 156 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: anybody else who is getting straight up government funding as 157 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: a media entity, they cannot claim simultaneously, oh, we don't 158 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: really need that funding. It's only a small percentage of 159 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: our budget. And Comma, how dare they cut our budget? 160 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: What are we going to do? This is tyranny. You 161 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 1: are not entitled to federal funds as a media entity. 162 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: This is insane. You know, I imagine all of a sudden, 163 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: I would just say this, why is PBS getting money 164 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: from the government? Claim Buck shut doesn't get any money 165 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 1: from the government. We're a capitalist enterprise.

And I 177 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: want to get into this a little bit more on 178 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: the Trump fight with Harvard, which I'll dive into in 179 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: the bottom, which I think, I think, I think this 180 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: stuff is important. And there's a new addition to this 181 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: too about foreign students from China. What's going on here? 182 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: You know, were we bringing Were we bringing the best 183 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: and the brightest from Moscow to study at cal Tech 184 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: and MIT and I don't know, nuclear engineering or something. 185 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: Were we doing that during the Cold War? I'm not 186 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: aware of it in any real numbers. I mean, there 187 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: was a lot of espionage going on, but I don't 188 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:37,239 Speaker 1: think we were welcoming, you know, uh, tens of thousands 189 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: of students from Moscow to come work at high levels 190 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: of sensitive But we're doing that with China. We are, 191 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: we have been doing and it's so dumb and so 192 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: contra the national interest that when you say it out loud, 193 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: it almost feels like, how is this? How is this possible? 194 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: And then you can even take it a step further. 195 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: How many Americans are getting access to the research being 196 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 1: done by I don't know what the top Chinese universities are, 197 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 1: but you know, let's say the equivalent of University of Beijing. 198 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: How many Americans are sitting in there classes learning about 199 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: five G, learning about artificial intelligence, learning about next generation 200 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: of microchips and what they're mean supercomputers. All that. We 201 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: all know the answer, Even if you don't follow the issue, 202 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: you know the answer because you'd say, well, China is 203 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: not that dumb, but we are. Trump comes along, This 204 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: is one of his superpowers. The dumb things that we 205 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: have as a country have been doing for such a 206 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: long time that we just start to think that this 207 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: is the way it has to be, because it seems 208 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: like it's always been that way. Trump comes along and says, 209 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: you know, that's a dumb thing. And we should stop 210 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: doing it. Whether it's getting involved in foreign wars that 211 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: we're not going to win and that aren't bringing any 212 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: benefit to us or even the people in that country 213 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: over the long term, or it's something as straightforward is 214 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: why are we educating at the highest possible levels insensitive? 215 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: They want to study Shakespeare. Okay, I'm a little more 216 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: open to it as long as there's no Americans who 217 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 1: are losing that spot in that school. Whole other conversation, 218 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: but the top electrical engineering, top, microprocessor top, you know, 219 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: theoretical physics, astrophysics. We're educating our biggest adversaries students, and 220 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 1: by the way, in numbers that would blow your mind. 221 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 1: I actually had a conversation randomly with the guy in 222 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: the Princeton University electrical engineering labs a long time ago, 223 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: and he said that if they wanted to, This was 224 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: a long time ago, was back when I was just 225 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: out of school. He said, if they wanted to, they 226 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: could take three classes or you know, three times as 227 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: many students as they have from just China with perfect 228 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: perfect scores for engineering, I mean perfect math scores. Everything. 229 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: He is, you know, they don't take that. It's not 230 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, but they could because they all want 231 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: to come and they take a lot of them. And 232 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: that's true of a lot of these schools that needs 233 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: to stop because they operate in America and they have 234 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: to start seeing themselves as part of this country. They 235 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: are not islands unto themselves. They do not have global tenure. So, 236 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: if anything, what you're seeing right now is Trump putting 237 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: into action that very important but very straightforward theory the 238 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 1: dumb things that prior administrations have done that there can 239 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: be no intelligent defense of. Whether it is funding PBS. 240 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: I know they do it because it's left wing propaganda, 241 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: but there's no real defense of this, not a serious defense, 242 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: not an intellectually consistent one, or spending too much money, 243 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: fraudulent stuff, sending money to people overseas, the stuff that 244 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: Doge has found dumb. Right, we can all agree, or 245 00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: training the foreign adversaries brightest minds in the most sensitive technologies, 246 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 1: when the wars and the economies of the future will 247 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: be determined by technological prowess, very dumb. And it is, 248 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: as I said, Trump's superpower among several, but one of 249 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: his superpowers is to come along and say I no 250 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: longer wish this country to do the things that we 251 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: all know are dumb but have just kept doing with 252 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: no good reason other than maybe politics or corruption.

We got some news here that is 283 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: breaking just today that a judge has blocked the Trump 284 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: administration from revoking Harvard's ability to enroll federal students. Federal 285 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: judge in Boston, no surprise, just happened today. She plans 286 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: to issue a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration. This 287 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: is from Fox from revoking Harvard's certification a host foreign students. 288 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: What a shock and a pointee of Barack Obama has 289 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: stepped in. I mean, this is all they've got now. 290 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: Just to be clear that the judicial resistance is so 291 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: out of line and so unconstitutional and has gone so rogue, 292 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: because this is all they have right now. They don't 293 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: really have other Yeah, I understand, we've got a very 294 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: small margin in the House. Yes, I understand. You can't 295 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: trust Republicans too. There are challenges to enacting the Trump 296 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: agenda in general, but the only way they have to 297 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: really slam it down and stop it in a data day. 298 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: Since are these federal judges with these universal injunctions which 299 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: are absurd. This whole thing has gone and you look 300 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: at the numbers, it's absurd. But on the one hand, 301 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: I just want to bring to your attention that that's 302 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: why they don't care anymore. They're in the break the 303 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: glass phase. They don't care about the danger, are the 304 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: damage done to public faith and the judiciary. They don't 305 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: care how partisan and how absurd this looks. It's all 306 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: they got. Nobody cares what CNN says about anything. Nobody 307 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 1: thinks The New York Times is honest. That's gone. Okay. 308 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: Even the people who like what those places say know 309 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: they're a bunch of liars. Look at the whole Biden 310 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: book tour going on right now. But let's talk about 311 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: why the administration's fight with not just Harvard, but the 312 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 1: fight over these universities in general and their policies is important. 313 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 1: It's important to this country. I'll explain more in a second. 314 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: My beloved New York Knicks, I actually do kind of 315 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: love because they used to watch them growing up. They 316 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: need to win tonight. It's win or go home. It's 317 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: the home game. I think that's gonna help. But the 318 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: Pacers are tough. I'll just tell you. They move the 319 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: ball better. They've got more shooters on the floor at 320 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: all times. I think their number one offensive option is 321 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: unfortunately stronger than our New York Knicks number anyway, But 322 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,439 Speaker 1: I'm hopeful and Prize Picks allows me to get in 323 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: on the action Prize Picks app. Once you download it, 324 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: you can choose more or less on two to six 325 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: players projections for your shot to win up to two 326 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: thousand times your cash.

You know, one thing that I want 336 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: you all to keep in mind is the Trump administration 337 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: learned I think a very important lesson from the first 338 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 1: at bat that Trump had. I think a Trump administration 339 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: learned something really critical, and that is keep pushing and 340 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: keep moving on all fronts. The first time around when 341 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: they did these universal injunctions and it was a different team, 342 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: and they've they've got the seasoned crew in place. Now, 343 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: these people all know this game. They don't have people 344 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: that are like, hey, I've never done politics before, and 345 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: you know, I kind of like Trump and like, oh 346 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: you can be you know, White House communications director. It's 347 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: a different world. So they have brought in people who 348 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: understand that if you allow the process to get bogged down, 349 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: and if you allow them to weaponize the process essentially 350 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 1: to thwart the agenda, you're dead in the water. So 351 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: you have to just keep going. So that's why I 352 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: even though this is what I do for a living 353 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: and I'm every day reading, researching, reading, researching, it's tough 354 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: to keep up on. Oh wait, what's the latest universal injunction? 355 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: And what are they saying? What is this judge saying 356 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: about Trump or that judge saying about Trump? Because they're 357 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: not taking the approach that I think was really just 358 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: more of the Republican way. Oh, we're gonna do this thing. 359 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 1: Oh the judge is gonna fight us on this. 360 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 2: M m. 361 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, we don't want to seem like we're pushing 362 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: too hard on stuff. So let's see how this goes. 363 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: Is you know, is it gonna go to the appeals court? Okay, 364 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: let's wait, is this Supreme Court? And you hear it? 365 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: You know, and next thing you know, a year is passed. 366 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: And on this issue, you've allowed them to run out 367 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: the clock and that's their whole game. So much of 368 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: what they did, and this was one of my great 369 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: frustrations with the Russia collusion. Lie. People always say, oh, 370 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,719 Speaker 1: it wasn't successful, and I have to correct them. It 371 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 1: wasn't totally successful. In the end, I think you can 372 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: argue it was defeated and shown to be a fraud. 373 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: But there were costs. You know, we took casualties so 374 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: to speak, along the way in the Trump movement because 375 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: they were able to make people show up for depositions 376 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: and they testify under oath and get lawyers and the media, 377 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: and you know, the whole thing was just kicking mud 378 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: up in the air, being haha, you can't you can't 379 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: do what you were elected to do, because we're we're 380 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: saying now, we're saying, I don't hear you, la la 381 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: la la, I don't hear you. I'm a Democrat. You know, 382 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: whatever childish nonsense they had to do, they did well. 383 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: This time around. The Trump team is going, Okay, let's 384 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: do this, oh universal injunction. Cool day, day two, next day, 385 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: let's do this, oh universal injunction. Guess what we got 386 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: something else? And this is the only way available within 387 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: the system. We have to continue to play offense. So 388 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: now what this means is that the left and the 389 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: Democrats are going to be saying, look, oh, he's dictator 390 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: and he's tired, and look at all these things he's doing, 391 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: because there's a lot going on. But we want there 392 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 1: to be a lot going on. We want this move 393 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: movement to be happening on all these different fronts, and 394 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: these processes are playing out. So once again we all 395 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: want the same result on this stuff. The people that 396 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: are trying to do this in this White House, they 397 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: are pursuing this. I've never seen anything like this before. 398 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: Most of my life in conservative media has been telling 399 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: the truth about Democrats when their media outlets have all 400 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: together much bigger, you know, ecosystem, and have us outgunned, 401 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: so to speak. I know, you know, the biggest talk 402 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: radio shows are conservative, and yes, Fox is the biggest 403 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: cable channel. But when you add all those different and 404 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: remember now we're like the unsinkable aircraft carriers are free 405 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: speech and the Democrat media is like a little dinghy 406 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: you no beep beep, you know, I don't think they 407 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 1: have horns, but you know what I'm saying, maybe boats 408 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: have horns, right, I'm not a boat guy, but you know, 409 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 1: they're not what they used to be, right, They're they're 410 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: like they're ships that they look like the whole is 411 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: dipping low, the close to the water, and you know 412 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: they're sputtering a little bit. It's not working the way 413 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 1: you used to. But one of the big things that 414 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: I think we had to do on the conservative side 415 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: of the media was just to deal with the constant 416 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: incoming and so we were playing a lot of defense, 417 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: playing a lot of defense, and the Trump term a 418 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: first Trump term, playing a lot of with all the 419 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: like I said, Russia collusion stuff. Right, they tried to 420 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: make us play a lot of defense on the Biden. 421 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: Now that didn't work as well as they had hoped. 422 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: But you know what we see here with Trump is action. 423 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: Action is its own, is its own strategy. Just keep going. 424 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: Just you know, motion creates emotion, like make things happen. 425 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: And that's why I think the stuff you see with 426 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: the College is I know, they say you can't do this, 427 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: they say you can't do that, They say you can't deport. Okay, 428 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: Trump's team is going to fight that out in corp. 429 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: But while that's happening in every area where the agenda 430 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: can be pursued by the executive branch, they continue to go. 431 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: And this is excellent. Okay, Now let's talk what's going 432 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: on here with Harvard. You have this this injunction now 433 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,439 Speaker 1: from an Obama Judge Obama, I'm gonna be honest with you. 434 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: One of the smartest things, one of the most damaging 435 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 1: things about Obama's eight years in office, and I think 436 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: he did horrific long term damage to the country in 437 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: a whole range of ways. I think the Obama presidency 438 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: was a disaster for America that has continued to do 439 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: harm well beyond his eight years. Well yeah, I mean 440 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 1: on so many issues, I can't get in them all now. Also, 441 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: I'll address Michelle Obama now that people are seeing what 442 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: she actually thinks. I don't think we're gonna hear anyone 443 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: talking about how she should be a presidential candidate anymore. 444 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: I'll put it that way. Michelle Obama not a grateful 445 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: person and not a wise person, and doesn't seem like 446 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: a very nice person either, not a surprise to some 447 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: of you. But when she's on these podcasts, she's not's 448 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: not doing herself any favors with with a broader electorate, 449 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: that's for sure. I mean, I'm sure they're you know, 450 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: super fans of Michelle Obama who think everything that she 451 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: says is brilliant. It's not. And I think that people 452 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: feel more comfortable just speaking the truth about that now 453 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: than ever before. But Obama did a lot of damage 454 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: to the country, and Trump is trying to undo that damage. 455 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:32,199 Speaker 1: But one of the most lasting points of damage in 456 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: all of this has been the seating of the Federal 457 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: Judiciary with activists, people who just do not care. You know, 458 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: the call it the Sodo my yours because she's a 459 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: she is really the the the pinnacle example of this. 460 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: She just knows she's supposed to deliver for her team, 461 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 1: team Democrat, team left wing, team race and identity politics, 462 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: you know, team wise Latina like she she knows that 463 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: she is supposed to make it happen for them in 464 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 1: whatever and now she's only one vote of nine, but 465 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: that's every She never there's never a moment where you go, Wow, 466 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 1: Sodamor is really angering her own side with that? How 467 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: is that possible? She never lets the home team down. 468 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 1: The progressive leftist, communist Democrat is never frustrated with Soda 469 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: my Or. Now she we're aware of this because of 470 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: her role in the Supreme Court. There are hundreds of 471 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: sod my Ors in the Federal Judiciary, hundreds of them 472 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: because of what Obama and Biden were able to and 473 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 1: Biden's case the people around him, as we know, but 474 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: what they were able to accomplish. So this is a 475 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 1: major challenge for the administration on the issue of foreign 476 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: students in this country. I have objections to this on 477 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: many levels, not all foreigns students. Please don't tell me, oh, 478 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: but you know, I you know, my family we were 479 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: so close. You know. We had a foreign exchange student 480 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: from Singapore and he was lovelier. We had somebody visiting 481 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 1: our you know, was in class at Brigham Young with 482 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: my son and he was from you know, wherever. And 483 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: I know, Okay, it's not that we don't want any 484 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 1: foreigners here, that that would be too much, but we 485 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: also don't want nothing but foreigners in the top echelon 486 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: of critical industries, critical academic disciplines for our economy and 487 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: our national defense, and that is happening. We also don't 488 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: want foreigners, non Americans of any kind, to be here 489 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: in numbers where they get to box out essentially Americans 490 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 1: from access to the schools that, as we now all know, 491 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: are getting billions of dollars of taxpayer money, and they 492 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: really want that money. So they're taking taxpayer dollars, but 493 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 1: they're not prioritizing Americans. You know. You know, you start 494 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: to do this, what percent of Harvard students are for 495 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: You start to look at these numbers and you say 496 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: to yourself, thirty percent of Harvard or foreigners. Do you 497 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: know that thirty it's like twenty seven, twenty eight percent. 498 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: We'll just say thirty percent because it's basically a third, okay, 499 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: a third of Harvard or foreign So this is our 500 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: most elite university. Blah blah, all that stuff. I meant. 501 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: At Stanford and Yale, people send your plays on vacation, 502 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: send angry emails to him. We're supposed to sit here 503 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: and say that that's okay, that's insane, that's completely preposterous. 504 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: The only reason that Harvard can have all these people 505 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: sitting around with tenure, including oh, this is beautiful, including 506 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: a professor of honesty I kid you not, who was 507 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: just fired from her tenure job at Harvard Business School 508 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: for dishonesty. It's real. You can look it up. I'm 509 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: not making it up. And it just happened. Her expertise 510 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: is whether people are honest or not, and they fired 511 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: her for being dishonest about her expertise and about the data. 512 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: They say, one of the highest paid professors at Harvard 513 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: Business School, I might add, I mean, these are the 514 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: kind of people that I remember. This is like, because 515 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: I was in this rat race for a while remember 516 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: until Glenn Beck came along and saved me. I was 517 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: on my way to Columbia Business School. And I don't 518 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: mean I was thinking about it. I was in. I 519 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: was going and Glenn was like, Buck, come work with me, 520 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: you know, did his Glenn thing. I was like, yes, sir, 521 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: that is a great let's do that thing. The Blaze 522 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: early days, got to work with Pete Hegseeth and Will Kine, 523 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: and I mean I can't even I can't even name everybody. 524 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: I mean, early days, it was just like everybody that 525 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: you see on Fox now practically came through the Blaze 526 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: either as you know, somebody who was a guest or whatever. 527 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: So it was those are fun days. Those are fun days. 528 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: I got a lot of nostalgia about it. My point 529 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: is merely, I understand this world where people are going 530 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 1: through all this stuff. They'll do anything to shove people 531 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: out of the way to get into these places so 532 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 1: they can study under a professor of honesty who's actually 533 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: really dishonest. I mean at Harvard at heart. What has 534 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: happened to these places? Do I think that Harvard? I mean, 535 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: you look at some of these schools, you know, they 536 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: used to have like an ancient ancient Greek and Latin 537 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: requirement requirement at some of these at some of these 538 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: universial you look this up, I mean the core curriculum. 539 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: You actually had to be smart to go to these 540 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: places and pass these classes. Whether it's you know, talking 541 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: about back and I don't know, the fifties. I think 542 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: the sixties ruined everything. Sorry boomers, I think the sixties 543 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: ruined you know, because that's when you seeded the radicals 544 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: in these schools and that's where But you go back 545 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: earlier than that, and you had to actually be pretty 546 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: smart at these places. You had to know. My college 547 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: Amherst when I went there, and it's only gotten more 548 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: competitive since then. It's a small schools. Those who the 549 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: Northeast know what. The rest of the country doesn't know it. 550 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: But because it's kind of like an insider. First of all, 551 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: you can't pronounce the age. It's not Amhurst, It's Amherst, 552 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: just so you know. And that's always the tell. If 553 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: somebody says Amhurst, it's like, oh sweetie, or what do 554 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: you say in the south? Bless your heart, Oh, bless 555 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: your heart. The whole thing was that they would take 556 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: I think they had a fifteen percent admission rate. So 557 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: one hundred people apply, eighty five of them get SAD 558 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: letters home. Eighty five of one hundred people get sad 559 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: letters home. Okay, And and I think now it's less 560 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: than that. Harvard's like one percent or two percent or 561 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: something insane. And there was remedial math and remedial English 562 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: basically required for a big chunk of students coming in. 563 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: I remember sitting here thinking like, how how elite can 564 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: this place be when you have people who can't you know, 565 00:31:55,120 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: can't math good and need help on on writing and 566 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: basic reading, Like, how can this be an a lite 567 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: institution when that's the well, this is where the left 568 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: uses these places as credential factories to do social engineering 569 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: in the broader society, and we all see it. So 570 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: I have I want to come back to this issue 571 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: with the foreigners and schools though, because this is also 572 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: a national security thing. I'm passionate about this. I don't 573 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: think this is a small thing at all. You sit there, 574 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: you say, how is it that the Biden administration was 575 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: putting out White House Communica, official White House communications about 576 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: how twelve year olds should be able to pick their 577 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: gender and get like castration drugs. How could that have happened? 578 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: Look at college campuses. That's where it all starts. Where 579 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: that's where the disease, initially, the virus of left wing 580 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: insanity takes hold and replicates. I will take some calls 581 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:53,959 Speaker 1: on this and dive deeper into it because I think 582 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: it's super important. You know, six hundred days ago, life 583 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: in Israel changed forever. That's the number of days it 584 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: has been so Tamas terrorists killed innocent people in Israel 585 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 1: with reckless abandon and took hostages, many of whom have died. 586 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: You and I both know how painful this has been 587 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: for everyone involved. The people of Israel have appreciated the 588 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: support of this audience, and out of the International Fellowship 589 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: of Christians and Jews or IFCJ, they're on the ground 590 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: in Israel every day blessing lives in real, tangible ways. 591 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: They're feeding elderly Holocaust survivors who have no one else. 592 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: They're building bomb shelters to protect school children from rocket attacks. 593 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: IFCJ has risen to this challenge with your help. When 594 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: you give a gift of forty five dollars, do IFCJ 595 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: to help provide food shelter and more for those in 596 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: desperate need.

Go ahead. 627 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 3: I owned an international foreign exchange business where we basically 628 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 3: only brought in Chinese age high school kids or high 629 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 3: school Chinese kids, and you know, listening to a lot 630 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 3: of the talk about the international students, I think one 631 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:34,399 Speaker 3: of the things that's missed are these kids who are 632 00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 3: coming in, particularly the kids we dealt with, because they 633 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,240 Speaker 3: were coming here when they were, you know, thirteen fourteen 634 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 3: years old. They get very indoctrinated into American culture. And 635 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 3: a lot of the kids who are in college in 636 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 3: the United States also matriculated through US high schools and 637 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 3: by the time those kids get to you know, their 638 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 3: late teens. They've been extremely in doctrinated into American culture, 639 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 3: and a lot of us don't want to go back 640 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 3: to China. And it's not because they're Manurion candidates and 641 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 3: their Yeah. 642 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: This is a little bit though, Like this is a 643 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: little bit like, but what about the illegals who come 644 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 1: in and do good things for me, like with my yard, 645 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: But you know, most of them are nice and they Yeah, 646 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: this is a broader policy than individuals who come here 647 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: and like the country. Patrick got on me to cut 648 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 1: you off. We're actually at time. I'll come back and 649 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: address this a little more. I didn't say no foreign 650 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,240 Speaker 1: exchange students, and it's not about any one foreign exchange student. 651 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,720 Speaker 1: We can't have these people studying advanced aerodynamics at MIT 652 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 1: and be half of the class and go back to China. 653 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,919 Speaker 1: I'm not really talking about eleven and twelve year olds. 654 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 1: But we'll get back to this in a moment.
