13
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: to focus on two extraordinary consequential things that are on

14
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: the immediate horizon and for America, all of our guests date,

15
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: We're going to really drill down. One is the extraordinary

16
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: danger that America faces when it comes to spending. If

17
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 1: we keep these spending levels up for another few years,

18
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: we will move ourselves to a bankruptcy. And say, we

19
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: got another reminder of that when the Social Security and

20
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 1: Medica Trust funds told us they're actually going to start

21
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 1: running out of money a year earlier and expect to

22
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: have to start cutting payments as early as twenty thirty three, which,

23
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: by the way, it is not that far around. We're

24
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: going to talk to Senator Ron Johnson who put out

25
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: an amazing report. They put out some really important data

26
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: points for all of us to consider. We'll kick our

27
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: show off in a second. The second thing I want

28
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: to talk about is the consequential decision that our president

29
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: will soon make about whether to add US military mind

30
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: to Israel's attacks on the nuclear power excuse me, the

31
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons program that Iran was building and that Israel

32
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: has been attacking the last several days. We've given you

33
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: a lot of data points over the last few days,

34
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: what other people are saying, what the intelligence really was. No,

35
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: Iran wasn't days away from having a nuclear weapon, but

36
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: it was getting very close to having the fuel necessary

37
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: for a nuclear weapon, a very important threshold. Yes, there

38
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: is a lot of concern about whether Magill stay with

39
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: the President on this issue, since we talk often in

40
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: this country about not having more forever wars. Today, I

41
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 1: want to give you one other data point, in one

42
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: exclusive document, probably something you've never seen before. Hop on

43
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: the screen here. They're going to put it up here.

44
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: It's a secret cable that Bill Clinton sent to Iran's

45
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: president in nineteen ninety nine. It's a remarkable document. I

46
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: got it a few years ago under the Freedom of

47
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: Information Act. It's really relevant today because it is a

48
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: reminder of two things. One, Democrats have repeatedly tried to

49
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: appease Iran to the detriment of America in two.

50
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: Over the last forty six years.

51
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: Since the US embassy was taken hostage in Tehran in

52
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy nine, nearly one thousand Americans. One thousand Americans

53
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: have died at the hands of Iran. What this memo

54
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: says is that Bill Clinton told Iron's president something he

55
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: wasn't willing to tell the American people. Bill couldn't never

56
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: told the American people that Iron was behind the Coe

57
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: Bar towers to attack that killed nineteen Americans. But he

58
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: told Iron's leader he knew it, and he said, hey,

59
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: if you just act like good guys, we'll let this

60
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: thing go. We want good relations with you. We'll slip

61
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: it under the run. All you have to do is

62
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: just arrest the guys that did Coe Bar towers, and

63
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: we'll let it all go. No consequence for Iran's behavior,

64
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: Not when they killed two hundred and sixteen plus Americans

65
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: at a marine barracks in Beyrout nineteen eighty three, not

66
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: when they killed the nineteen to Cobar towers, not when

67
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: they killed the six hundred and three soldiers who the

68
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: Pentagon says died from Iranian made IEDs. It's just another

69
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: data point that President Trump I think has on his

70
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: radar as he tries to make the decision whether to

71
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: fully incompletely eradicate the Iranian nuclear program with bunker buster

72
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: bombs that only our B twos can deliver a lot

73
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: of other things on the table, we want to get

74
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: that information too. We're going to have more on that metal.

75
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: We're going to make it available for everybody to read

76
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: in the morning. And a hold the tail. I'm going

77
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: to give you that role call of the thousand US.

78
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: You know who they were, when they died, and how

79
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: they died. But now it's an amazing time to turn

80
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: to my amazing coast, Amanda head and get some more news.

81
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 3: Amited, Absolutely all right, So we have some Supreme Court

82
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 3: news to get to. Earlier today, they had a big

83
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 3: decision that come down dealing with the United with the

84
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 3: State of Tennessee their ban on youth transgender surgery. It

85
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 3: also banned the use of puberty blockers and hormone therapy,

86
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 3: and the Court sided with the State of Tennessee, upholding

87
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 3: that ban.

88
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 4: Now.

89
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: The vote was six to three, of course, divided among

90
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 3: ideological lines, with Chief Justice John Roberts.

91
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 5: Writing the opinion. The Chief Justice.

92
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 3: Said that the law was not in violation of the

93
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 3: Constitution's fourteen fourteenth Amendment and it does not constitute a

94
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 3: form of sex discrimination. Now, this is an important decision

95
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 3: because twenty four other states have laws that are very

96
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 3: similar to Tennessee's which was just upheld. So it will

97
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 3: most likely have a very very large impact. And turning

98
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 3: to some economic news, the Federal Reserve under Chairman Jerome Powell,

99
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 3: decided not to lower interest rates, keeping in the four

100
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 3: point twenty five to four point five percent range. The

101
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 3: Central Bank said it was worried about President Trump's tariffs

102
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 3: and their impact, and even though inflation has been on

103
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 3: a downward trajectory since President Trump took office, the Fed

104
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 3: said that they were worried about an uptick. Now President

105
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 3: Trump was asked about all of this earlier today, just

106
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 3: before the Fed's announcement, and he answered it the only

107
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 3: way that he can here.

108
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 6: It is we're doing well well and as a country,

109
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 6: if the FED would have a lower rates, you know,

110
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 6: would buy dead for a lot less.

111
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 2: It's a share of this guy. I have a guy.

112
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 6: Do you have to have a guy that's not a

113
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 6: smart person and you're dealing with him and he's not.

114
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 2: A smart guy.

115
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 7: He's worried about inflation. They said, that's right.

116
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 6: If there's inflation in six months or nine much you

117
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 6: lower the rates. So you raise the rates, you can

118
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 6: do whatever you want. Brian, Right, we have a stupid person,

119
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 6: frankly at the FEDI.

120
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 3: So something that President Trump has talked about even before

121
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 3: he became president, even before he ran.

122
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 5: This is something he has.

123
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 3: Always harped on about back when it was Twitter. And

124
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 3: here he is a noval office again and he's still

125
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 3: dealing with this issues.

126
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: Well.

127
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: The reason we have some of that crushing debt expense

128
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: is because we've had so much crushing spending for the

129
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,359
Speaker 1: almost eighty percent of all the debt we accumulate in

130
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: the history of this country. Twohudred and fifty years has

131
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: occurred in the last twenty years of this Congress. Somebody

132
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,239
Speaker 1: who takes that seriously and has shotted it out often,

133
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: though it's not popular among his fellow Senators and House

134
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: members in the Congress, is Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin,

135
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: and today he put out an extraordinary report just looking

136
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: at the mess we're in. Smart simple data points help

137
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: us understand how we might be able to get of it.

138
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: We're lucky to be joined by him at the top

139
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 1: of the show. Today's Senator. Great to have you back

140
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: on the show. Well, John hum Lamanda, thanks for having on.

141
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 2: All right, there's two things I find remark about this report.

142
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: One is just the CEO mentality and our way you

143
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: look at the data of the way a CEO whether

144
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: they were trying to fix a company. The second part

145
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: is you wrote this all by yourself. No staff, right,

146
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: this is your work.

147
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 8: Well, staff definitely helped me format the report. I'm not

148
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,919
Speaker 8: very good with the word processors, but no, this is

149
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 8: something I've been working on really since I wrote my

150
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 8: op ed for the Wall Street Journal in January first,

151
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 8: where I laid out the concept of returning to a

152
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 8: pre pandemic level spending, And I laid out three different

153
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 8: options by going back to Bill Clinton in nineteen ninety eight,

154
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 8: Obama in twenty fourteen, Trump in twenty nineteen. Exempts those

155
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 8: scating medicare and interests, spend what you need to spend,

156
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 8: but all those other outlays just increase them by population

157
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 8: growth and inflation. And what kind of spending level we have, Well,

158
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 8: the answer is somewhere between five point five and six

159
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 8: point five trillion dollars versus the more than seven trillion

160
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 8: dollars will spend this year seven point three trillion next year.

161
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 8: So we are in a very dangerous zone in terms

162
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 8: of locking in deficits of over two trillion dollars over

163
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 8: the next ten years. I know I'm throwing a lot

164
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 8: of numbers. Let me just give you a couple some

165
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 8: base pieces of information. In the seven years prior to COVID,

166
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 8: the average depthsit was six hundred and sixty billion dollars steal,

167
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 8: way too high, But I wish we were there at

168
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 8: this point then we had COVID. But then the four

169
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 8: years after that, any rational human being would have said, okay, well,

170
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 8: we can't stay at this six point five trillion dollar level.

171
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 8: We need to go back to pre pandemic deficit and

172
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 8: spinning levels. That's how what Biden the Democrats did. They

173
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 8: continue to spend at about six point five billion dollars

174
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 8: and now seven, but they encouraged an average deficit each

175
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 8: year about one point nine billion dollars.

176
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 7: So we went from six hundred and sixty.

177
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 8: Billion to one point nine and unfortunately, according to CBO,

178
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 8: over the next ten years that dest averaged two point

179
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 8: one According to CBO with their with their score of

180
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 8: the One Big Beautiful Bill, that would be two point

181
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 8: four trillion dollars per year, twenty four trillion dollars in total.

182
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 7: So again, these are massive numbers.

183
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 8: One of the reasons I decided to do this reporter

184
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 8: is I wanted to demonstrate this graphically because I've been

185
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 8: going on shows like this spouting numbers like this. I

186
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 8: realized it goes over most people's hands. But when you

187
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 8: see it, it's pretty shocking. You see where George Bush

188
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 8: was at two hundred and fifty billion a year, You

189
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 8: see that pre pandemic level, and then you see where

190
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,439
Speaker 8: we are, where we bent the last four.

191
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 7: And where we're heading.

192
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 8: We've got to do something about this and listen. I

193
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 8: think the House has done some good work. I know

194
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 8: people understand this problem and from a standpoint of we've

195
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 8: got to do something about it, But I'm not sure

196
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 8: people really understand the depth of the problem. So my

197
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 8: role has been to you know, as a CEO, I've

198
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 8: solved a lot of problems.

199
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 7: The first step in solving.

200
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 8: A problem is admitting you have one and then properly

201
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 8: defining it.

202
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 7: So I'm trying to properly define it.

203
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 8: Layout Different scenarios show that economic growth is a huge

204
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 8: component of a solution, but we're not going to get

205
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 8: to valance a budget by just growing the economy. We

206
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 8: have got to recome reduce spending to a pre pandemic level.

207
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's obviously a money problem, but I

208
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: think for a lot of folks it's a very nebulous

209
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 3: money problem that is not really hitting home just yet.

210
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 3: Speaking of showing the graphically and putting it out there

211
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 3: very simply for the American people, I think when people

212
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 3: hear that we should go back to pre pandemic levels,

213
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: their first question is what does that mean? And second

214
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 3: of all, sort that can't just the difference between the

215
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 3: two can't just be mandatory spending with inflation, there's got

216
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 3: to be discretionary garbage in there that's easily cutable.

217
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 8: Well, if you just go back to twenty nineteen, exempt

218
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 8: Social Security, Medicare, and even medicaid and defense, exampt all

219
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 8: that spending, you got almost four hundred billion dollars of

220
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 8: spending that exceeds what we spent in twenty nineteen, completely

221
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 8: plussed up for Biden's inflation.

222
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 7: And population I think said three hundred and eighty four

223
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 7: billion dollars. Again, that's going to back twenty nineteen.

224
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 8: You go back all the way to Bill Clinton, include

225
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 8: medicaid in that, and we're spending one point three trillion

226
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 8: dollars more than what Bill Clinton spent fully.

227
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 7: Inflated for population inflation.

228
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 8: So again that's where you get the five point five

229
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 8: to six point five billion dollars.

230
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 7: So how do you get back that level.

231
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 8: It's not looking at two or three programs being a

232
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 8: couple of tweaks and getting a CBO score. You have

233
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 8: to literally go line by line like those shit contract

234
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 8: by contract, program by program. Do you realize we have

235
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 8: over twenty six hundred programs in the federal government.

236
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 7: And my belief is if we do the work. It's

237
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 7: going to take a lot of work.

238
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,319
Speaker 8: But having gone from four point four trillion to over

239
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 8: seven trillion dollars twenty six hundred programs, I've got to

240
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 8: believe that you could eliminate hundreds of billions of dollars

241
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 8: hundreds of federal government programs and nobody would even notice,

242
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 8: except for the grifters who are sucking down all that waste, fraud, abuse,

243
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 8: and pork.

244
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 1: So I want to ask a little bit, why don't

245
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: Republicans have the same passion you do for this They

246
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 1: all talk it big every two years and elections, but

247
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: cutting one hundred and eighty billion when you've added two

248
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: trillion dollars a year average per year, when you've added

249
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: two trillion in the last five years annually to the

250
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: budget is a joke. Why don't they have more passion,

251
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: more courage, more willingness to get down, roll out your

252
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: sleeve and submit something that actually would get this deficit down.

253
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 8: Because this is why this place is operating. You know,

254
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 8: we've never had a method to or a process of

255
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 8: control spending. We don't have a budget, the balanced budget requirement.

256
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 8: I didn't realize this, but the appropriation committees were actually

257
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 8: established because the authorizing committees were big spenders. Well, that

258
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 8: didn't work since in goals didn't work. The Budget Act

259
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 8: didn't work. You know, Actually the Budget Control Act did

260
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 8: work for a couple of years. We reduced distress arrayed

261
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 8: spending by about one hundred and seventy five billion dollars

262
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 8: orth three years.

263
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 7: That was the impact of the Tea Party. You know.

264
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 7: Brock Obama came in again.

265
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 8: George Bush average two hundred and fifty billion dollars period deficits.

266
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 8: Barack Obama came in and averaged almost one point three

267
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 8: trillion in his first term. One point three trillion. That's

268
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 8: part of the Tea Party. We came in and we

269
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 8: literally put pressure on the process. We held federal government

270
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 8: spending flat for about five years. About three and a

271
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 8: half trillion dollars wouldn't be great for real spent three

272
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 8: and a half tillion dollars, we'd have a two trillion

273
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 8: dollars surplus basle. But again, those are the numbers. Yeah, listen,

274
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 8: we got a bunch of lawyers in Congress. I've found

275
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 8: that my colleagues don't like numbers that much.

276
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 7: They're not all that And that's about me.

277
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 8: Listening or you're listening to all these numbers all the time,

278
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 8: showing them all my charts.

279
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 7: But I'm pretty relentless.

280
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, I want to ask you about another critical situation,

281
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 3: the conflict between Israel and Aaron. I mean, from day

282
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 3: to day, we have no idea what shoot. Minute to minute,

283
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 3: we have no idea what's going to happen. But if

284
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 3: President Trump comes up to Capitol Hill and says, I

285
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 3: need you to approve we want to get involved on

286
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 3: an official, intangible level, do you think that that would

287
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 3: pass well?

288
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 8: First of all, I don't think President has to do that.

289
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 8: He's the commander in chief. If he sees a clear

290
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 8: and present danger, he can act and I would support

291
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 8: him in that. Listen, this is such a tragedy. The

292
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 8: Raning people. We don't have a beef with the Raining people.

293
00:13:58,640 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 7: We don't have a.

294
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 8: Beef of Chinese. These people are Russians or even North

295
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 8: Korean people. We have a problem with their dictatorial regimes.

296
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 8: And the Iranian people have been under the thumb of

297
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 8: a dictorial a brutal dictorial regime. They don't support them.

298
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 8: They are the largest state sponsor terror. They threaten our

299
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 8: shipping lanes through their proxies. They absolutely threaten Israel. They've

300
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 8: way over played their hand and what Israel has done

301
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 8: over the last years, so since October seventh, they've just

302
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 8: basically dismantled all their proxies, and now they've dismantled their

303
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 8: air defense systems and orams. Just stand they're vulnerable. So

304
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 8: it's a choice really for the Uranian people at this

305
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 8: point in time. I think the malls are weak. They

306
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 8: don't have a security apparatus. I just truly hope that

307
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 8: the Uranian people take the bull by the horns and

308
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 8: demand their freedom, turn that into far more democratic, Western

309
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 8: leading society. We would welcome them into the free nations

310
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 8: of the world.

311
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 2: So I would be risive.

312
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: I didn't ask to get your reaction before we let

313
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 1: you go to the report we had earlier this week

314
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: that the FBI in twenty twenty got meaningful intellivision that

315
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: China was trying to hijack the election with fake mail

316
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: in Ballance. Rather than fully investigated even though they had

317
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: some corroberating evidence, they swept it under the rug. Now

318
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: you highlighted the abuses of the Russia collusion in case

319
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: where they had no evidence, but they opened up. You

320
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: highlighted the ignorance of the Hunter Biden investigation not willing

321
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: to look at clear criminality. What's your thought when you

322
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: hear that the FBI saw a threat to an election

323
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: and didn't intervene, Well.

324
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 8: You understand exactly how partisan the FBI has been. And

325
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 8: by the way, the deep state continues. I knew this

326
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 8: wasn't going to be immediate radical transparency and these agencies

327
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 8: and it's not. I know that the heads of the

328
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 8: agencies want to get to Congress information.

329
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 7: It's a tough slot. So we've got a real problem.

330
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 8: I mean, the root cause of our problems with the

331
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 8: government is government itself, the size of it, the scope of.

332
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 7: It, the cost of it.

333
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 8: Until the American public understands that and stop looking the

334
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 8: federal government to solve all their problems, recognizing that the

335
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 8: federal governments creates more problems, exams the meates more problems

336
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 8: that it ever solves, and just starts demanding to start

337
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 8: shrinking it, the demand that they can keep more of

338
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 8: their own harder and tax dollars. We're going to say,

339
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 8: we're still gonna have a deep state. So this is

340
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 8: about winning the hearts and minds the American public and

341
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 8: get them to realize that the federal government is you know,

342
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 8: we need some government. Our founders realize that where men

343
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 8: and women are not perfect, if we don't want to

344
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 8: live in anarchy and chaos, you need some government. But

345
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 8: government is something by large to fear, which is why

346
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 8: they tried to establish this constitutional framework, but checks and

347
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 8: balances to limit government's power over us, because when you

348
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 8: grow government, our freedoms just necessarily recede.

349
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: A wise man said something similar in an earlier time

350
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: in history. I think it was Ronald bag and you said,

351
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: government's not the solution, it's the problem right now, and

352
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: you are echoing that with all the great work you're doing.

353
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 2: So great honor to have you on the show, Tay,

354
00:16:59,080 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 2: thanks for joining us.

355
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 7: A great evening.

356
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, great conversation and great work on that data, such

357
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: important stuff. All right, folks, we're going to take a

358
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 1: quick commercial break. When we come back a minute. I

359
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: had a great chance to talk with Senator Marsha Blackburn

360
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 1: some amazing stuff on anti doping and China cheating in

361
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: the Olympics.

362
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 2: And a whole lot more. Not gonna want to miss it.

363
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:32,120
Speaker 9: Right after these messages, Welcome back everybody.

364
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 3: Earlier today we sat down with the Senator from Tennessee,

365
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 3: Marsha Blackburn, one of our favorite folks, and she is

366
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 3: obviously a colleague of our last guest, Senator Ron Johnson.

367
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 5: So I take a look at us all.

368
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: Right, joining us now, someone I say, brings a healthy

369
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: dose of common sense to a sea of insanity in Washington,

370
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: the great Senator from the state of Tennessee, Marsha Blackburrin, Senator.

371
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 2: Good to have you on, good.

372
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 5: To be with you. Thank you.

373
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed this hearing yesterday. I'm a sports fixionado

374
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 1: in my spare time and didn't realize how many problems

375
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: we've had with the International Anti Doping Agency. Tell us

376
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: a little bit about what we've learned, the China element

377
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: to it, and where Congress probably stands on this now.

378
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 10: Indeed, I think it is so important to note that

379
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 10: we know that in twenty twenty one, when Katie McLaughlin,

380
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 10: who was with us yesterday, was given us a silver metal,

381
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 10: she was beat out by a Chinese swimmer. Twenty three

382
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 10: swimmers had been accused of doping. Well, China said, oh,

383
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 10: it was some TMZ that accidentally was in the food.

384
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 5: What we found out was the.

385
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 10: Pounds of food they would have had to have consumed,

386
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 10: in the gallons of water they would have had to

387
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 10: have consumed in order to get that amount of TMZ

388
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 10: in their bodies was not even something that was plausible

389
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 10: that they could have eaten that much every day consistently.

390
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 10: So there were twenty three swimmers all total. They got

391
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 10: garnered ninety six medals, and they knocked many of our

392
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 10: athletes off the podium. And the World Anti Doping Agency

393
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 10: or WATA as we term it, did nothing, But it

394
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 10: seemed that what they did do was to work in

395
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 10: a back room with China to accept China's explanation for this,

396
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 10: and of course then China put more money into WADA

397
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 10: for contributions and for investigations. Because of this, the United

398
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 10: States had withheld their money because our athletes are being disadvantaged.

399
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 5: And it's not only China Russia.

400
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 10: Of course, we have had some in fright from them also,

401
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 10: And it seems that WADA is cutting backroom deals and

402
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 10: not protecting athletes.

403
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,880
Speaker 5: Doping in communist countries. I have never heard that, Senator.

404
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 11: I want to ask you about their attitude towards towards

405
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 11: this hearing and their willingness to give up information. It

406
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 11: seems like they were pretty belligerent about handing over anything,

407
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 11: and not only that, but also maybe kind of subtly

408
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 11: threatened the Salt Lake City Games.

409
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 5: Yes, indeed we heard that they had.

410
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 10: Subtly threatened the Olympic Committee regarding the Salt Lake Games

411
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 10: because they wanted to hold it over the head of

412
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 10: the US and then say, well, they weren't going to

413
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 10: let us have these games. Well, this is more of

414
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 10: their backroom deal making that they are trying to do

415
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 10: and is not able to be trusted on this. And

416
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 10: you're correct that they would not turn over any information,

417
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 10: nor did they show up at the hearing, nor have

418
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 10: they properly responded to any of our requests. So clearly

419
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:22,719
Speaker 10: they are hiding something. If there was nothing to hide,

420
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 10: they would comply with the request. So we'll continue on

421
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 10: this issue. I Chair Consumer Protection Data Security. This is

422
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 10: an issue that comes before us and we will continue

423
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 10: to work on this issue to protect our US athletes

424
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 10: so that they are able to train, to compete fairly

425
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 10: and to win successfully.

426
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, clearly just cheating was going on and the body

427
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: that was supposed to stop it actually sanctioned it.

428
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 2: It's just remarkable to see such great work. Saata.

429
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: I want to turn to a subject that's dared our

430
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 1: heart's story, Okare a couple days ago and continue.

431
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 2: To follow up on.

432
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: The FBI got credible intelligence at China was sending fake

433
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: driver's license in the United States to create fake mail

434
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 1: in ballots. CPB intercepted some of the fake driver's licenses.

435
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 1: The FBI pulled back its investigation, in fact ordered other

436
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: intelligence agencies they had shared the intelligence with to destroy

437
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 1: their intelligence report get rid of any of the evidence

438
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: of what the suspicion was. Your thoughts about that era

439
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: of time with Chris Ray and the FBI and how

440
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: we fixed it under cashprotel.

441
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 5: Yes, and this is one of those things.

442
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 10: And you know, John, what is so amazing is we

443
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 10: heard these tidbits about China trying to do something with

444
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 10: fraudulent ballots to go into these states that were tossed

445
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 10: up states and throw the election.

446
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 5: So we were hearing that, but then there.

447
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 10: Was nothing that was done in the FBI said there

448
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 10: is nothing to it.

449
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 5: It's internet rumor.

450
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 10: We all remember that, and now we find out just

451
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 10: as we're finding out in many things, much of this

452
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 10: internet rumor are things that would be slipping out by

453
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 10: a whistleblower, which, of course the Biden administration would quickly

454
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 10: discredit those individuals. Well, it's true, and I was really

455
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 10: grateful that you all broke this report yesterday because this

456
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 10: is something that is lingered out there from the twenty

457
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 10: twenty elections, and the fact that Border Patrol actually found

458
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 10: some of this and tried to have it investigated, and

459
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 10: the FBI said, don't.

460
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 2: Crazy touch it.

461
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 5: Don't touch it.

462
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, just crazy.

463
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 5: It changes so many of the ways that we look

464
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 5: at the twenty twenty election.

465
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 12: Senator, I wanted to ask you about a plan that

466
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 12: is supposedly in the sentence version of the One Big,

467
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 12: Beautiful Build, and I suppose it sets off a plan

468
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 12: to sell two million acres initially to private land developers,

469
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 12: fossil fuel developers.

470
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 5: But that's to happen every sixty days.

471
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 3: So these are public lands, blm lands, migrant pattern corridors,

472
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: hunting land, forestries, these types of areas.

473
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 5: Is it a wise idea to sell those off?

474
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 10: One of the things that we do know is many

475
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 10: people in the Western States already have leases on that land.

476
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 10: For cattle, for horses hunting, and there is tremendous concern

477
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 10: about this. You've talked about some of that that falls

478
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 10: in migrant patterns, and Border Patrol has said, no, we

479
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 10: need access to that land so that we can continue

480
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 10: with closing these pathways that migrants have used. President Trump

481
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 10: has been so successful in securing the border, and you've

482
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 10: got Secretary Nome and Tom Holman who have worked tirelessly

483
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 10: on this issue. And we need to listen to Border

484
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 10: Patrol when they say here's an area, we need to

485
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 10: hold access to it. It's not saying they're not saying

486
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 10: anyone's not saying you can't ever sell it.

487
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 5: They're just saying, this.

488
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 10: Is not something that you can throw somebody up against

489
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 10: a deadline because there are people that actually are leasing

490
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 10: this land from the federal government or something that our

491
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 10: security interests need to have access to.

492
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's important to have those sort of guardrails in there.

493
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: I said on last one I want to turn to,

494
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: and that is the issue of Iran. President is considering

495
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: maybe joining Israel in the limited way, maybe some bunker

496
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: buster bombs to finish off the New Clear program. Most

497
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: Americans because it happens episodically. Don't realize the large, long

498
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: tortured history of Iran, specifically killing Americans more than one

499
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: thousand when you add the IEDs that were deployed in

500
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: Iraq during the war. How if President Trump gets a

501
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: chance to finish off the nuclear program or take out

502
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: the regime.

503
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 2: What is your thoughts on him?

504
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 10: Acting President Donald Trump has handled this issue so incredibly well.

505
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 10: He gave he said, I'm going to give a run

506
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 10: sixty days to get to the table.

507
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 5: They did not come to the table.

508
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 10: So day sixty one you saw Israel begin with their action.

509
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 10: My understanding is the President is closely monitoring this.

510
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 5: He is very much engaged.

511
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 10: In watching this, getting intel and information from Netanyahu. I

512
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 10: know that when there is a decision to be made,

513
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 10: he is going to make the wise decision. He has

514
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 10: a goal of no more endless wars. He has had

515
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 10: an ultimatum a run cannot have a nuclear weapon. And

516
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 10: for everybody that is saying we want peace in the

517
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 10: Middle East, if you want peace in the Middle East,

518
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 10: you cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.

519
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: And no doubt in your mind, over the years that

520
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: Iron's been at war with America, through its proxies. It's

521
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 1: terrorism and it's IEDs ye dam.

522
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:38,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know.

523
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 10: And Iran's been making their money selling their oil to China.

524
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 10: And under President Trump first term, you had sanctions on

525
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 10: Iran and they were broke, they couldn't fund their proxies.

526
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,479
Speaker 10: And then you have them come along with Biden taking

527
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 10: that off, making deals with them, sending him six billion dollars.

528
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 10: You give Iran all, it's going to go one of

529
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 10: two places. It is going to go into uranium Enrichmond

530
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 10: or funding proxies.

531
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,199
Speaker 5: It's not going to go to the people.

532
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 10: That's why the Iranian people are ready for regime change.

533
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe they are. Senator, great to have you

534
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: on the show. Tea, congratulations on all the great work

535
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: you're doing in the Senate. Thank you you as well.

536
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: Thank you so much.

537
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 2: All Right, folks, here to take a quick commercial break.

538
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 2: It will be back with more of these messages.

539
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 9: Welcome back, everybody.

540
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 3: So much happening on Capitol Hill today.

541
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 5: First, a lot of speculation about.

542
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 3: What is coming next in the Israel Iran conflict and

543
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 3: if the US should get involved. We also have the

544
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 3: Democrats trying to force a national conversation on President Trump's

545
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 3: popular immigration.

546
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 5: Position that seems to be getting ever.

547
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 3: More popular, and joining us to break it all down

548
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 3: is Colorado Congressman Jeff Grank Congressman.

549
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 9: Welcome back.

550
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 5: Thank you so much for being here, sir, Thank you, Amanda.

551
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 7: Great to be with you guys.

552
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, happy to have you. And you know, I hail

553
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 3: from California. In fact, I moved here right after those

554
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 3: devastating fires and Pacific Palisades in Pasadena. But Colorado, a

555
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 3: lot of states are no stranger to wildfires.

556
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 5: Tell us about a.

557
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 3: New bill that you introduced that deals with this and

558
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 3: kind of maps out for everyone to know exactly what

559
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 3: are the I guess pun intended hotspots.

560
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I think it's important.

561
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 13: We don't do a whole lot that's bipartisan in Congress

562
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 13: these days, but one thing we can do, hopefully is

563
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 13: helped fight wildfires, and I introduced the bill we do.

564
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,239
Speaker 13: I think have some bipartisan support on this bill, but

565
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 13: it's going to really force the government to do a

566
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 13: better job of forecasting or doing fire weather forecasting, helping

567
00:29:55,400 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 13: states and communities understand through mapping and other their means

568
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 13: what areas we need to be careful with regard to fire.

569
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 13: So it's really trying to create more cooperation and coordination

570
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 13: between the federal government and state and local governments. And

571
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 13: of course wildfires in Colorado, as you mentioned, California, so

572
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 13: many Western states particularly, but what we're even seeing it

573
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 13: in other places as well. It's a real problem and

574
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 13: it's just devastating to communities that it hits.

575
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is.

576
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: And it's good to see the bipartisan action something that's

577
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: been neglected for a while. Fire prevention certainly, So it's

578
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: a great, great thing. So I want to turn to

579
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 1: this everybody's talking about, and that is will the US

580
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 1: joined Israel in an offensive capacity as it tries to

581
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: take out the Iranian nuclear program. Just like to get

582
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: your thoughts on where you are as you see this

583
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 1: play out. Is this a generational opportunity or should we

584
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: avoid the military conflict?

585
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 13: Well, look, there's moments in the history of the world

586
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 13: where we just have to make tough decisions, and I

587
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 13: think this is one of them. This is a moment

588
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,959
Speaker 13: we cannot allow and I firmly stand behind the President's

589
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 13: declaration that we cannot allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

590
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 13: And we know that they've been trying to get one

591
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 13: for well over a decade now.

592
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 7: They're doing everything they can to do this.

593
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 13: They've hied, they've lied, they've cheated, They've done everything they

594
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 13: can to hide the fact. They even schnokeered the Obama administration.

595
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 13: They schnuckered the Biden administration and others. But all along

596
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 13: they've been developing this capability, and their reason they want

597
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 13: to do it is to wipe Israel off the map

598
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 13: and to also export that tear around the world through

599
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 13: their proxies, through Hamas, through Hazbolah and other agents to

600
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 13: attack the United States. They're going to attack the country

601
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 13: that they call the Great Satan too, So you know,

602
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 13: we can't let this happen. I would prefer to see

603
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 13: this be an offensive effort by the Israelis and that

604
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 13: the United States not get involved in that, although we

605
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 13: are already helping them, I know, with sensors and detecting

606
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 13: missile wances in a defensive capability, and I hope we

607
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 13: will continue to do that. But if we have to

608
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 13: do that, you know, I think the President has to

609
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 13: do what he has to do to protect the American people,

610
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 13: and I'll be there to support him.

611
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,959
Speaker 7: I'm certainly there to support the people of Israel.

612
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think there's also a good point to

613
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 3: be made when it comes to the protracted nature of

614
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 3: what we saw in the early two thousands and having

615
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 3: men and women overseas in the Middle East for twenty

616
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 3: plus years. This is a very different scenario, is it not,

617
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 3: Because this is something that you sees on this opportunity

618
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 3: with they're on get rid of their nuclear programs and

619
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:47,719
Speaker 3: it's pretty fast.

620
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 13: Yeah, it is. It should be fast. And look, this

621
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 13: is a I mean, John, you said it. I mean,

622
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 13: this is a generational opportunity. This is an extension of

623
00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 13: what President Trump did with the Abraham Accords. I think

624
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 13: part of one of the greatest shames of the twenty

625
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 13: twenty election is that we weren't able. If President Trump

626
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 13: would have been in office from twenty twenty to twenty

627
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 13: twenty four, I think the Abraham Accords would have taken root.

628
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 13: And you know, the Abraham Accords was really negotiated with

629
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 13: states like you know, Jordan and Saudi Arabia and others

630
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 13: that were willing to recognize Israel's right to exist and

631
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 13: that if Israel had the right to exist, that they

632
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 13: would live peacefully there. The main obstructor of that in

633
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 13: the Middle East, whether it's the Arab states like Saudi

634
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 13: Arabia and Jordan, or whether it's the israelis the main

635
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 13: objector to peace there and to allowing Israel to remain

636
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 13: on this planet.

637
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 7: To be honest with you, is Iran.

638
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 13: So I think the people of these other moderate more

639
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 13: moderate Arab states have been cheering us on and certainly

640
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 13: been cheering Israel on in this. I think the whole

641
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 13: world will be better off if we get rid of

642
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 13: this Iranian regime.

643
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 7: Let's just be honest about it. And this is just

644
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 7: a moment we got to rise up to.

645
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt about it. So you had a terrible

646
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 2: tarror attack.

647
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: I think that's what we would call it, where anti

648
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 1: Semitism turned into hatred and then turned into murderous attempt

649
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: at murder. Can you tell us the latest of what

650
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 1: you've learned? And is it true that this guy who

651
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 1: was in the country had a driver's license even though

652
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,439
Speaker 1: he was be here any Mark John?

653
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 13: I mean, it's shocking really when you think about it,

654
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 13: and it's really what happens when governments refused to work

655
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,800
Speaker 13: with one another and work.

656
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 7: To protect the American people.

657
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 13: That's what we expect our governments to do, and when

658
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 13: they fail.

659
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 7: We need to hold them accountable for it.

660
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 13: This assailant in the Boulder attacks was given a work permit.

661
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 13: He was here on that that work permit expired, and

662
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 13: then months and months and months after that work permit expired,

663
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 13: the state of Colorado gave him a driver's license. They

664
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 13: gave him, really a sanctuary license is what I call it.

665
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 13: Allowed him to work in the United States despite the fact.

666
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 7: That he wasn't here legally to work.

667
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 13: But you know, gave him, gave him a driver's license

668
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 13: so he could drive and be legitimate in Colorado.

669
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 7: And I'll tell you another.

670
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 13: Thing that we've discovered in that case is that, you know,

671
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 13: he applied tried to get to buy a gun.

672
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 7: The system worked, none of us. There's nobody who's pro Second.

673
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 13: Amendment who wants a non citizen and a terrorist to

674
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 13: get a hold of guns. They did a background check

675
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 13: on him, it came back and said, no, you can't

676
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,760
Speaker 13: buy a gun because you're not a citizen. But guess

677
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 13: what the State of Colorado, Jared Poulos's Colorado Bureau of

678
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 13: Investigation and Joe Biden's FBI knew.

679
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 7: That he failed that background check.

680
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 13: They knew it, but yet they didn't pass that on

681
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 13: to Ice and say, hey, get this guy out of

682
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 13: the country.

683
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 7: He's trying he's trying to buy guns, and he's here illegally.

684
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 13: You would think that the American people would want our

685
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 13: government to work.

686
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 7: Together to get these kind of people out of our nation.

687
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: Colorado rewarded bad behavior, and then he rewarded Colorado with

688
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: even more heinous behavior. It's just a remarkable set of circumstances.

689
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: You've been able to dig up sair.

690
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, it is.

691
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 13: It's so frustrating because I know that there's so many

692
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 13: good people law enforcement here in Colorado, in my county.

693
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 13: My sheriff works hard to work with Ice. But we

694
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 13: just got politicians that just don't see it that way.

695
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 13: And we just got to get to a point where

696
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 13: the American people make them pay a political price for

697
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,319
Speaker 13: this kind of behavior, you know, where they just thumb

698
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 13: their nose at.

699
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 7: The federal government and frankly at law and order.

700
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, congressmen, really quickly before we let you go. You

701
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 3: have these pro Palestinian protesters, and now you have in

702
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,839
Speaker 3: cities across this country. The anti ice rate protesters, they

703
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 3: seem to be flying a lot of the same flags.

704
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,760
Speaker 3: What's the common ideology.

705
00:36:55,120 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 13: There, Yeah, well, you know they're flying they're making comers

706
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,919
Speaker 13: tv ads. Really, I think for the next Republican presidential race,

707
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 13: to be honest with you, with some of the stuff

708
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 13: that they're doing. Yeah, we're seeing people with these the

709
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 13: Palestinian flags and waving Palestinian flags, and people standing on

710
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 13: burned out vehicles in Los Angeles waving the Mexican flag.

711
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 7: I mean, it's offensive to the American people.

712
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 13: And I'll tell you what's really offensive is you've got

713
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 13: a lot of people in the Democrat Party that are

714
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 13: seeing this and sort of latching onto it and you know,

715
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,720
Speaker 13: trying to have this kind of bad behavior. Senator Alex

716
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 13: Padilla of California and others just acting, you know, sort

717
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,280
Speaker 13: of boorish like they they're entitled because they're a senator

718
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,839
Speaker 13: or they're a member of Congress, to walk into any

719
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 13: federal building at any time, you know, and charge a stage.

720
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 13: I mean, it's it's incredible to see some of the

721
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 13: actions of the politicians. But you know what these politicians

722
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 13: are embolding, emboldening these citizens that are acting non citizens

723
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,280
Speaker 13: in a lot of cases that are acting this way.

724
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 7: But look, President Trump's done a good job. Good leaders stand.

725
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,919
Speaker 13: Up and provide for law and order in their communities.

726
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 13: We need that in California, we need it in Colorado,

727
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 13: we need it all across America.

728
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 2: So important.

729
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 3: I know, if it was any everyday American, and if

730
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 3: it was even me or John and we put our

731
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 3: hands on a law enforcement officer, we would probably see

732
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 3: the same thing. So it doesn't really matter if you're

733
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 3: an United States Senator, yeah you would.

734
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 4: You know.

735
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 13: I serve on the House Armed Services Committee and I

736
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:31,319
Speaker 13: was just out yesterday visiting one of our local military installations,

737
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,840
Speaker 13: and you know what, I had to go through security.

738
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 7: I had to go through the gate, I had to

739
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 7: show them my ID, I had to let it check

740
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 7: me in.

741
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 13: I mean, it is arrogance beyond arrogance for remember of

742
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 13: Congress or a United States Senator to think that just

743
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 13: because of their position, they can show up somewhere and

744
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 13: you know, they have to be admitted onto a base. Yes, sir, courteous,

745
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,800
Speaker 13: be kind, call them and let them know you're coming.

746
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 3: For goodness sake, absolutely, I Betty said. All some fundraising

747
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 3: emails after that, though, Jeff Craig from the great state

Speaker 3: of Colorado, thank you so much for being here her.

749
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,360
Speaker 3: And next we're going to take a closer look at

750
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 3: the Supreme Court upholding that Tennessee ban on youth transgender

751
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 3: surgery HALLOWEJA.

752
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 5: Right after this break.

753
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: Welcome Back in America, the Supreme Court made a big

754
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: decisions I men I mentioned at the top of the

755
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: show with a Tennessee law banning youth transgender surgery, pew

756
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,719

757
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 1: it was a lawful band. Supreme Court isn't done yet

00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 2: Today it was a big day. I think a lot

774
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 2: of people were holding their breath running. What would this.

775
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 1: Decision be on the transgender band? Your thoughts on how

776
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: the court came down.

777
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, so this case, actually, out of the whole term,

778
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,240
Speaker 4: was the one that was most watched. Since they started

779
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:24,399
Speaker 4: live streaming the oral arguments. Back after COVID, you don't

780
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,800
Speaker 4: see as many people coming into the courtroom, especially the press,

781
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 4: but with this Scurmeti case, the Tennessee Attorney General defending

782
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,319
Speaker 4: this law, it was packed. Even the press section where

783
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 4: you couldn't even see the bench was filled, and so

784
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 4: it was the one I think that most people are

785
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,919
Speaker 4: waiting for. I was surprised actually it came out this week.

786
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 4: I thought maybe they would save it to the very

787
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 4: last day of the term, but coming out of oral arguments,

788
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 4: it did seem like Tennessee had the upper hand. So

789
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 4: I was not surprised by the decision today upholding that

790
00:40:55,400 --> 00:41:00,280
Speaker 4: law banning as you mentioned, medical treatment for transgender youth.

791
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 7: The decision basically.

792
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 4: Came down to the majority the six GOP appointees saying

793
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 4: that this law really turned on age and the actual

794
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 4: diagnosis versus sex, and that was what the transgender youth,

795
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 4: their parents, and a doctor were arguing that it was

796
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 4: a sex discrimination issue and that the court should give

797
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 4: it higher scrutiny.

798
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 3: And there are going to be a lot of implications

799
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 3: for this bo because other states either already have similar

800
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 3: laws or are in the process of them.

801
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 9: Right, You're right.

802
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 4: I think there's about twenty seven states that have similar laws,

803
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 4: and so with this precedent, their laws look pretty darned strong,

804
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 4: unless those challengers are able to come in and point

805
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 4: to some sort of holes that that there might be

806
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 4: that the court didn't address in this Tennessee case.

807
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: All right, tell us about the book for a second,

808
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: because weaponization is something close dear to my heart. I've

809
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 1: been watching this go on for two decades wondering, ever, stop,

810
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 1: how much where's going to get? You do such a

811
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,000
Speaker 1: great job in this book of laying out how we

812
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,560
Speaker 1: got this moment. Tell us some of the highlights that

813
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 1: where we are, how we get out of the mess.

814
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 7: Word.

815
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was disheartening for a reporter and also a

816
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:19,280
Speaker 4: lawyer to watch what I have seen basically since covering

817
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 4: Capitol Hill in the Trump era, the first Trump administration,

818
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:27,359
Speaker 4: but then especially during the campaign season this last year.

819
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 4: I have a group of friends from law school that

820
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 4: I stayed in touch with, and I would by no

821
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,880
Speaker 4: means say everyone was a Trump supporter in that group,

822
00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,280
Speaker 4: But every time we saw a new case come against

823
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 4: Donald Trump, we all were like, this is just wild,

824
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 4: Like the charges were questionable. So what I did was

825
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,880
Speaker 4: I went through basically in this book and documented what

826
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 4: I argue the start of the law Fair against Trump

827
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 4: was really the Russia investigation when he first announced his

828
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,760
Speaker 4: first campaign for president, and it went from special counsel

829
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:03,359
Speaker 4: then to impeachments, and then we graduated to indictments and

830
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 4: so forth, and so each chapter takes a look at

831
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 4: some of the cases that plagued to the president as

832
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 4: he campaigned. I spoke to Laura Trump and Don Junior,

833
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 4: which I found very interesting getting their take about what

834
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,399
Speaker 4: it was like going through this while campaigning. Laura Trump

835
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,880
Speaker 4: told me that every member of the family was pretty

836
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 4: much impacted by the law Fair, that it even became

837
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 4: hard to get a mortgage, which you would find surprising

838
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 4: since this is one of the wealthiest families in America.

839
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 4: Both her and Don Junior said that they thought one

840
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,839
Speaker 4: hundred percent if their father hadn't won, that he would

841
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 4: be in jail. That basically winning was the only way

842
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 4: to keep Democrats from walking him up. There's just some

843
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 4: interesting tidbits, for sure that I found through my research.

844
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 4: Some of the criminal cases that we saw the president face.

845
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,439
Speaker 4: He was of course gagged, he had gag orders on him,

846
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 4: and during that time he did ninety about ninety Camp

847
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 4: hain rallies while under these gag orders. And if you

848
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 4: care about the First Amendment, if you care about the

849
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 4: protection of political speech, that should really trouble you.

850
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:10,920
Speaker 5: You know, you want your leading.

851
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 4: Presidential candidate to be able to speak freely. And what

852
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 4: we saw were these Democrat pointed judges gagging him and

853
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,760
Speaker 4: basically restricting what he could say.

854
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 3: Okay, speaking of the First Amendment, because I have a

855
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 3: feeling this probably plays into this case. Although it's strange,

856
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 3: strange credulity a Texas law trying to ban the viewing

857
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 3: of pornography by minors. Somebody on the other side is

858
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 3: arguing against that.

859
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 5: What is their argument.

860
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 7: Yes, I know.

861
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 4: Some of the times that you see some of the

862
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 4: challenges you discuss your head like really some could say

863
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 4: for the Tennessee law too. But with that being said,

864
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 4: the concern is privacy rights. I guess having to enter

865
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:57,280
Speaker 4: too much personal data to be able to access a website.

866
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 4: And so that's really what is up in this Texas

867
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 4: this case, Texas, like many other states, want.

868
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 7: To have porn websites.

869
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 4: Require an age ident verification measure. And so the question

870
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 4: is is that through some sort of scan like a

871
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 4: facial scan. Is that through entering your personal data? And

872
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 4: that's where the challengers have raised First Amendment concerns.

873
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:23,319
Speaker 1: Goscha, Well, you said earlier, if we care about the

874
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 1: First Amendment, we should be concerned what happened. If we

875
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,239
Speaker 1: care about facts, I think people should go read this book,

876
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,279
Speaker 1: Lawless Law, for you are an impeccable reporter with an

877
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: incredible legal background as well. Lawless Law Fair folks, go

878
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 1: check out Alex Greatwak go buy it's a great summer read.

879
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:38,400
Speaker 2: As we headed to the vacation season.

880
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:40,640
Speaker 1: Alex Great to have you ate, Thanks for doing it

881
00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:42,839
Speaker 1: all right, quick commercial break. When I come back a man,

882
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: I have a few final thoughts.

883
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 9: Welcome back everybody.

884
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 5: A few more headlines before we head out for the night.

885
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 3: Now personally love any reporting that starts out a Florida man,

886
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 3: because I know something wild is about to follow. Get

887
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 3: some and apparently there is a Florida man reptile who

888
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 3: has been roaming the sewers of Florida. Now, there's there's

889
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:20,360
Speaker 3: been this like urban legend around certain places, obviously Florida,

890
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 3: that there were alligators in the sewer, and this guy

891
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 3: proved it true.

892
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,399
Speaker 2: I guess it is. Look at that. Wow, that's kind

893
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 2: of scary.

894
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 5: Now I'm trying to figure out perspective. I think he's

895
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:32,959
Speaker 5: a little guy. He looks a little clumsy. He looks

896
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 5: like he's trying to figure get.

897
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,240
Speaker 2: His walking the sewer.

898
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 5: He kind of looks like he's having a nice time.

899
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:43,879
Speaker 5: He's just flopping along sewer. He might buy a finger off.

900
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 2: That's it.

901
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 5: We got ten of them. You can afford to lose one.

902
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, more of the story.

903
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 2: I don't stick your hand down the sewer.

904
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 5: Great, that's indeed indeed. Draw backing up.

905
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 3: Okay, So I want to touch on something from our

906
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 3: last guest in the Supreme Court decision out of Tennessee.

907
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer is not too pleased about it. He called

908
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:08,720
Speaker 3: it awful and John again, I don't know why people

909
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 3: fight so hard for miners to have the ability.

910
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, miners to have the ability.

911
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:15,799
Speaker 2: Well, it's a long decision for them.

912
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:17,239
Speaker 5: It can sterilize.

913
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's and these are the same people who say

914
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,240
Speaker 3: that at eighteen years old, you are not mentally competent

915
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 3: enough to enter into a financial agreement with an educational institution,

916
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,480
Speaker 3: but at fourteen you can decide to sterilize yourself.

917
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:35,840
Speaker 1: This is one of those circumstances where it takes a

918
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:39,400
Speaker 1: village mentality just dominates. Elitists believe they know better than

919
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: the rest of us and that they have the right

920
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 1: to dictate our future. So if you're a kid, you're

921
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,399
Speaker 1: not old enough to make your own decision, we'll make

922
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 1: it for you. If we ruin your life, don't worry

923
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: about it because we're elitis and we know better. I

924
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: think Senator Schumer and the Democratic Party and those who

925
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: advocate for this, listen, Great Britain's pretty liberal even it

926
00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,240
Speaker 1: came around on this subject. This is a losing bat.

927
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: You look at the polling, it's like an eighty twenty issue,

928
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 1: maybe even more ninety ten, which.

929
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:06,959
Speaker 3: Which is which makes it surprising to me that Chuck

930
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 3: Schumer would come out against it.

931
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 5: You know, Chuck Schumer on.

932
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: This is the party that likes Iranian terrorists, gang members,

933
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: MS thirteen gang members, and people who like the main children.

934
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 1: And I just I don't I don't understand how they're

935
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,359
Speaker 1: trying to build a majority with these very fringe They're

936
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: making themselves more irrelevant.

937
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:29,919
Speaker 13: I think.

938
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

939
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 3: And you know, when we were talking to Senator Blackburn

940
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 3: about WATA, the World Anti Doping Agency and the American

941
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 3: athletes who got screwed for lack of better terms out

942
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 3: of medals, I think about that with respect to transgenders

943
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 3: and sport. It's not an equal playing field when someone's doping,

944
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:47,560
Speaker 3: when someone.

945
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,760
Speaker 5: Is a dude playing against girls, it's cheating. It's all cheating.

946
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 1: Just like just like the Senator said today, there's one

947
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: Democrat that seems to be reading the polls and maybe

948
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: even leaning, and that's John Fetterman. I don't know how

949
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 1: much more that Democrats can ostracize him, but he just

950
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,320
Speaker 1: doesn't care. And it's kind of liberating when you find

951
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:10,440
Speaker 1: someone that isn't trapped by the voice of the minority

952
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,399
Speaker 1: or you know, the vocal fringe, and he just has

953
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 1: he's unhinged from the fringe. And I think it's really interesting.

954
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:16,239
Speaker 5: Yeah.

955
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 3: I used to not understand how he could so audaciously

956
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 3: walk up to Capitol Hill, walk up to his Senate

957
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 3: office in Jim Schwartz and a hoodie every.

958
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:25,879
Speaker 5: Day, and seeing how he has.

959
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 3: Maneuvered through all of the ostracizing, now I get it.

960
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 5: It's because he doesn't care. He doesn't care what others think.

961
00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 5: I still don't like the wardrobe, but.

962
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 1: Sures brings some respect me to Captain in sec But yeah,

963
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 1: I know, listen, there is a there's a streak of

964
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:43,759
Speaker 1: independence to him that clearly is frustrating his party, and.

965
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 2: That it's kind of fun to watch. It's a dynamic.

966
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 2: I can see it very often in my life.

967
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 3: It's nice to see, all right, everybody that's going to
