But that ain't me anymore. 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 3: You're not just telling us what we want to hear, No, sir, 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 3: no way of couse. 10 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: We just want to hear the truth. 11 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 2: Well, then I guess I am telling you what you 12 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 2: want to hear. Boy, didn't we just tell you not 13 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 2: to do that? 14 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:44,279 Speaker 4: Yes, sir, Okay, then we cannot keep our promises on medicare. 15 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: We simply must make. 16 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 4: The cuts and waste broad and abuse in medicare so 17 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 4: that the benefits and the premiums are untouched. We owe 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 4: it to our seniors, We owe it to our country. 19 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 5: Easy you have to make, then you have say. 20 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 2: That's you love me. 21 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:28,199 Speaker 6: There is no question that there is an enormous amount 22 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 6: of waste and fraud and abuse in this government. There 23 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 6: is no question to my mind that Congress has not 24 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 6: been vigilant enough in rooting out that waste and fraud 25 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 6: to the tune of billions and billions of dollars. I 26 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 6: would simply say that while it is absolutely appropriate to 27 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 6: condemn the Congress, it is also important to note that 28 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 6: we have an administration in this city in Washington D Street, DC, 29 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 6: and the function of an administration is to administer them 30 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 6: and that means that when there is waste and fraud, 31 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 6: you have an administration who should also be on top 32 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 6: of that situation. 33 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 7: If we're going to eliminate the waste brought and abuse 34 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 7: in medicare, it does mean. 35 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: We're going to cut some of that out. 36 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 7: And when I hear my friend Dave Camp say you 37 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 7: cannot cut money out of Medicare, well, we don't want 38 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,119 Speaker 7: to cut the good stuff that you point out one 39 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 7: third of Medicare doesn't go to patient care. You can't 40 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 7: just get up there and say we don't want to 41 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 7: cut anything out of Medicare. We want to cut the 42 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,239 Speaker 7: bad stuff and keep the good stuff. 43 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: Is you do that often here from listeners that they 44 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: are underpaid, And it's a fascinating concept, and so it 45 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: because that is a that is a completely subjective question, 46 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: and I enjoy the exercise. So I will say, all right, 47 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: you feel that you're underpaid? No, no, I'm underpaid. All right, Well, 48 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: let's take a step back for a moment and let's 49 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: talk through how it is you've come to feel that 50 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 1: you're underpaid. What do you think you're worth? And let's 51 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: say the gal say fifty bucks an hour? All right, 52 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: what are you getting paid? Twenty eight? All right? How 53 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: did you establish a market of fifty bucks an hour? Well, 54 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: that's what other people are getting, all right, then why 55 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: don't you go and get those people's job. Well, nobody's hiring. 56 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: If nobody's hiring and nobody's willing to pay you fifty bucks, 57 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: then here's what you need to understand. You're not worth 58 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: fifty bucks. You're only worth what somebody pays you or 59 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: what you earn yourself individually. So either leave and go 60 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: earn the fifty bucks at a business of your that 61 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: you start, or put the word out that you need 62 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: fifty bucks an hour and you know you're an electrician 63 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: or a plumber or whatever it is you do, and 64 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: that you want these just pay for Well, I can't 65 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: find anybody want to pay me. I'm underpaid. You're not 66 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: actually underpaid. You're getting paid what you demand and they're 67 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: willing to cover the only way you're going to get 68 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: a pay raise, unless they're just really nice people who 69 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,119 Speaker 1: for whatever reason are in the bad business of paying 70 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: people more than the person demands, which I guess some 71 00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: people do. That is, if you say I'm leaving, the 72 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: only way I'm staying is if you pay me fifty 73 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: bucks an hour. At that moment, you're going to find 74 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: out what you're worth presently your work twenty eight bucks 75 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: an hour, because that's what you're getting. If they say 76 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: I can't pay you fifty but I can pay you 77 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: thirty five, you were underpaid what your value was. But 78 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: that's your problem, not theirs. You had to threaten to leave, well, 79 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: the threat to leave hanging over you is what keeps 80 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: you from shooting for the stars. It is the threat 81 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: of recession. It is the fear that we won't make 82 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: as much today as we made yesterday. That causes those 83 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: in the press and those investors and many other folks. 84 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: That causes them to criticize Trump's economic policies as he 85 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: has begun them because they fear losing their job more 86 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: than they aspire to get the fifty bucks an hour. 87 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: What Trump is trying to do right now with very 88 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: aggressive economic policies is he is trying to put America 89 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: into a better position domestically and vis a vis other nations. 90 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: And this is a complicated game He's plan because you 91 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: got a lot of different people at play here, stock 92 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: market being one of those factors, but also consumers who 93 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 1: are buying products, and also workers who work for companies, 94 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: most of them Americans, some of those importing products and distributing. 95 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: This is a very very complex economy, and it's not 96 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: so simple as the tariffs are good or the tariffs 97 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: are bad. I have long been a Wall Street Journal reader. 98 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: Now I'll have to hear from a thousand of you 99 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: that the Wall Street JOURNALI is or the Wall Street 100 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: Journal is at. I don't endorse everything I read, or 101 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: every person I listen to, or anything else. But the 102 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal has tended to be not as well 103 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: as Investor's Business Daily, but it's tended to be a 104 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: pretty good source and commentator on the intersection of politics 105 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: and finance and industry. But they do not like Donald Trump, 106 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: and that's clear to me. And they are going out 107 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: of their way, and unfortunately they are a bit of 108 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: a bellwether. They are an influencer on these matters and 109 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: a lot of people are reading what they're writing, and 110 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: they're writing things like Canada is upset, the EU is upset, 111 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:54,119 Speaker 1: as if we're supposed to care Making America great again, 112 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: whether that's a slogan or reality, means readjusting a lot 113 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: of relationships, and some people who are in a stronger 114 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: position with us than they should be are going to 115 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: be upset about that. They're not going to consent to 116 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: us adjusting our position that benefits us in such a 117 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: manner that harms them, because it's a zero sum game 118 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: in many cases, not all, so of course people are 119 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: mad about it. Michael ber let me become friends with 120 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: school shooters. So one of the sites I follow is 121 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: called the Babylon b and it's a satire site and 122 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: it's funny. Sadly, The Onion used to be funny, and 123 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: somewhere along the way, those liberals at the Onion lost 124 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: the ability to laugh at themselves or anything else. Rush 125 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:55,479 Speaker 1: Limbaugh always said, beware the man who can't laugh at himself. 126 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 1: You know, the ability to laugh at yourself. Deprecating humor 127 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: is a superpower. It has a way of disarming people, 128 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: and Trump has a unique ability to kind of poke 129 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: fund at himself and you're not sure if he's doing 130 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: it or not. It's sort of like a Rauschenberg of 131 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: an abstract artist. He does things in such a way 132 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 1: that allows people to take from it what they want 133 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: and to impose their own hopes, dreams, fears, anxieties, whatever 134 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: that may be, onto what he does, which I find 135 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: to be fascinating. It's a fascinating study in his in 136 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: not just his leadership style, but in his entire career 137 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: as a as a public figure. One fellow that doesn't 138 00:09:54,559 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: know how to laugh at himself. It's Tim Waltz, that goober. 139 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: And now there's a lot coming out now about how 140 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 1: he was chosen to be Kamala Harris's vice presidential running mate. 141 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: First of all, we know a couple of things. Kamala 142 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: Harris didn't win a primary, so she had a real 143 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: legitimacy question. She's a female, so they needed to in 144 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: their minds balance that with men. They needed to find 145 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: somebody that could bring in men. Well, if you spent 146 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 1: five minutes around Tim Waltz, you know that he's kind 147 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: of like Pete Butterygig. This guy's not going to do 148 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: well with men, at least not approximately ninety percent of men. 149 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: He gives off all the wrong vibes, all the wrong vibes, 150 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: and he makes mothers weirded out because they can't imagine 151 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: him being around their kid. And you know, there's been 152 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: a lot of allegations in the course of his career. 153 00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: So he was supposed to strengthen the situation, the support 154 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: amongst men, and he was supposed to bring in white 155 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: men in hunters and football players and coaches and fans 156 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: and rednecks and working class and it could not have 157 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: gone more off the rails. And I think one of 158 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: the great ironies is, although again it's Russia's teachings. Whatever 159 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 1: they accuse you of is what they are. Tim Waltz 160 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 1: comes out and says jd Vance is weird. And there 161 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: was about three or four days there. There were about 162 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: three or four days there where that was the narrative. 163 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,680 Speaker 1: And once you declare that he's weird and you start 164 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: using the right pictures and the stories about him and everything, 165 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: you know, people start trying to fit that into the narrative. 166 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: But it didn't take long till everyone realizes the weird 167 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: one is Jazz hands over there, guy's married. How is 168 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: that that? 169 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 8: Guy. 170 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: Oh man, he's there's a lot of weird going on 171 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: with this dude, a lot of weird. And then we 172 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: had the stolen valor. Uh, the stolen valor. The stolen 173 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: valor thing was as much a problem for him as 174 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: his effeminate ways and troubling past. And then you had 175 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: the lies over his coaching when he was actually not 176 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: the head coach of the team that won state, but 177 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: in fact was kicked out. And then you had all 178 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: these lingering questions and his behaviors and the jazz hands 179 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,719 Speaker 1: and the weird when he was in public. So with 180 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: all of that in mind, you would think that he 181 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: would have the good sense to slink off into the 182 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: sunset after the Kamala Harris loss, which, by the way, 183 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: she's blaming him now. You think he'd go lick his 184 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: wounds for a little while or something. No. No, I 185 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: read an article and I thought it was from the 186 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: Babylon B I really did that, Tim Waltz, And we'll 187 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: put it on the if you don't.

The article was 195 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: about the fact that the headline was Tim Waltz says 196 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: he'll run for president if asked, And I just thought 197 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: to myself, did you really? Are you? Are you? 198 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 5: How? 199 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: How does that play out? In my mind? Got to wandering. 200 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 2: Sorry I'm late. 201 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: Guys. 202 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 2: They don't make those family bathrooms like they used to. 203 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Oh my gosh, got gout. 204 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 2: It's just stop and stop it. 205 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 5: I mean, really, I walk in here, and I mean 206 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 5: the flow is heavy, the energy is just electric. 207 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 2: I can feel it all the way down to my loines. Okay, 208 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,599 Speaker 2: you all want me to run for president, don't you? 209 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 1: Oh? 210 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 2: I knew it. 211 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: I knew it. 212 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 2: It's like when somebody brings a cheesecake to a party 213 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 2: and they're like, oh, I wasn't sure if anyone wanted 214 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: to deserve, but of course everyone totally does. And now 215 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 2: I'm the cheesecake. 216 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: Governor. 217 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: Waltz. 218 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: Are you saying you're running? 219 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 3: Oh? 220 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 2: I couldn't possibly unless you insist. But do you insist? 221 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 3: Do you need me? 222 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: Do you crave me? 223 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 2: Tell me you need me? Uh, nobody's asked you to run. 224 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 5: I mean it's a big decision, the weight of the 225 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 5: nation on these shoulders. 226 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 2: I'm just a humble public servant, a pleaser, a giver. 227 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 5: And if the people begged me, oh, if they insist, 228 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 5: if they fall to their knees and they say, Timmy, 229 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 5: Timmy Wallace, you must say this, then oh I'd have to. 230 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 2: It'd be rude. 231 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: Nothing. 232 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 2: So are you running? 233 00:14:58,200 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 6: Oh? 234 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 2: You not a little scamp. See you almost tricked me 235 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 2: to say that we listen if the American people demand. 236 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 5: Me, and I mean to man me like a sequel 237 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 5: that hid is on the hockeyen Ry Well, he Felfish 238 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 5: nut of the faith. 239 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 2: Hit it boys. Yes, good, I think we're done here. 240 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: Let's get at you. She was twelve, I was thirty. 241 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 2: But anyway, it was wonderful to have you, mister president. 242 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: Of the Michael Barry Show. I think this is a 243 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: perfect time to take seconds. Remember a great Houstonian Kenny Rogers, Yes, 244 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: a great Houstonian. I read that he had five life 245 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: of suction procedure star in the eighties, street. So you imagine, 246 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: like me, he just loves his food. He just absolutely 247 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: loved his food. Condition So there's a story in the news, 248 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: But there's so many stories in the news that you 249 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: may not have caught your attention. But it's one of 250 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: these things that just keeps bubbling up again and again 251 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: and again. We're going to have some tough conversations in 252 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: the next hour because our guest is in the business 253 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: of writing things that will make some of you very angry. 254 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: He is a Christian who writes about faith. He's written 255 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: a book called Pagan America, and he talks about talks 256 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: about a lot of things, but he talks about people 257 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: who come to this country and don't share our culture 258 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: and don't love what America stands for. You can be 259 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: a dissident here. You can disagree. Hell, we're dissonance. We 260 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: gather here every day to talk about how our fellow 261 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: patriots were wronged. On January sixth, we gather here to 262 00:16:53,960 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: talk about how COVID was exhibit one in how government 263 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: is evil and must always be checked. What does Sam 264 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: Houston say, governed wisely and as little as possible. We've 265 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: got the wrong people in government. When you have Michael Steele, 266 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 1: who was the head of the Republican Party album Mind You, 267 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: saying things like Elon needs to leave government to those 268 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: who do government well anyway. So this is something that 269 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: is not being talked about, in my opinion enough, and 270 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: that is the threat by China on America. So you 271 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: have two active duty US Army soldiers and one former 272 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: soldier who've been arrested for gathering, stealing, and sending sensitive 273 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: information to the chocoms. This keeps happening again and again 274 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 1: and again. And do you notice it's almost always Chinese Americans. 275 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: The story clip number six Jim Fox thirteen out of Seattle. 276 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 8: Do active duty US soldiers stationed at Joint Bace Lewis 277 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 8: McCord no longer at their posts. They are behind bars, 278 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 8: accused of working with the Chinese government. 279 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 9: This is the result of a long running investigation where 280 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 9: the FBI and our partners were able to uncover a 281 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 9: conspiracy to steal national defense information from military installations here in. 282 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: The Pacific Northwest. 283 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 8: The FBI naming those two JBLM soldiers as Jianzhou and VTN. They, 284 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 8: along with Roy Gwen, a former US soldier in Oregon, 285 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 8: were arrested Thursday. All of them are accused of violating 286 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 8: their duties to protect sensitive military information by selling it 287 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 8: to China. 288 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: The information that you said at. 289 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 9: Risk here is information that identifies up the United States 290 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 9: melters capabilities, plans, and intentions, and could really put us 291 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 9: at this disadvantage if that were called the wrong hands 292 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 9: for an adversary. 293 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 8: According to this FBI press release, all three had access 294 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 8: to highly sensitive information which upon sale they gained roughly 295 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 8: fifteen thousand dollars, giving. 296 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: China access to classified. 297 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 8: Hard drives, a stolen encryption capable computer, along with other 298 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 8: sensitive military information. The FBI, stating this threat to national 299 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 8: security ended following a year and a half long investigation. 300 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 9: Luckily, our investigators are pretty well versed in these types 301 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 9: of investigations. 302 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: But it does post a challenge. 303 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 8: And right now it's still unclear how much information was 304 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 8: transmitted to China. The FBI said during its investigation it 305 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 8: tried mitigating any losses. As for the three, those charges 306 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 8: will now go to a special prosecutor. 307 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: So why is it that people that live in this country, 308 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: some of whom were born in this country, seem to 309 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: have a loyalty, Well, do have a loyalty to China 310 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: when you're giving our secrets to a foreign country, and 311 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: I would argue an adversarial foreign country. I think China 312 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: is our greatest threat, not Russia at all. I think 313 00:19:55,440 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: China is a very very big threat to our country aggressively, 314 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: so financially and militarily. But why is it that people 315 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: who grow up in this country will then sell secrets, 316 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: commit treason against this country, bring harm to this country 317 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: to the benefit of China. That says to me that 318 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: you do not see yourself primarily as an American. And 319 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: then you have to start asking yourself the question, why 320 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: is it that people who live here, people who go 321 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: to school here, people who work here, people who serve 322 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: in our military, and don't tell me it's just the 323 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 1: quick cash. They did receive at least ten thousand dollars 324 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: each for this. I don't believe it's the quick cash. 325 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: Although in the case of this fellow Hansen and what 326 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: was the guy's name started with a z aldrich Ames 327 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: not a z alliterative names. Yeah, it is about power 328 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: for folks that feel like they haven't been respected and 329 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 1: appreciated and promoted and honored and all that you see 330 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: some of these FBI guys who've done that. But we're 331 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: seeing students, professors, researchers who are giving secrets to China 332 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: because of a deep loyalty to China. And I would 333 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: argue that these people don't see themselves as Americans in 334 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: the way that you see yourself as an American. And 335 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: we will actually explore that topic in the next hour 336 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: with a guest. We're going to have you know, this 337 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: Khalil at Columbia University, that the Palestinian who was organizing 338 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: protests for hamas President Trump's trying to kick him out 339 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: of the country. And the argument from the left is 340 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: normally we need this terrorist bastard here, which we don't. 341 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: But the legal wrangling aside. We have to get serious 342 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: as a nation about saying there are people we don't 343 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 1: want here, period, end of story. You know, I was 344 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: reading about a little village in England where native born 345 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: Englishmen have now been outnumbered in this little hamlet. It 346 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: sounds idyllic, like a Norman Rockwell painting, but English they're 347 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 1: now out numbered by asylum seekers, and they're scared to 348 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: death of these asylum seekers. Rape is up, stabbings are up, 349 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: and they're frightened of these people who've been brought into 350 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: their country. This goes back to what we talked about 351 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: during the presidential campaign. We need to put a freeze 352 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: on anybody coming into this country illegally or on work visus. 353 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: We can figure out what we're doing and figure out 354 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 1: how big this problem is. We are no longer the 355 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: dumping ground for criminals, perverts, and weirdos and terrorists around 356 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: the country. We have to be proud of who we 357 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: are and what our country is and be willing to 358 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: say we're no longer willing to allow this to happen 359 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: our It is troubling how desensitized we have become to 360 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: terrorism and violence in our country. For instance, the left 361 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: hates Elon Musk because he's exposing fraud in our country. 362 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 1: I even heard somebody the other that I think was 363 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: an elected official, you know, some loud mouthed state rep 364 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: in in some state. It doesn't matter, but whoever it was, 365 00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: and honestly, don't recall it was an elected Democrat though, 366 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: and I believe as a woman, and she said we 367 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: shouldn't trust Elon Musk. You know, he wasn't born here. 368 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: He's only been a citizen for twenty two years. And 369 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: it's kind of the sort of thing that you can't 370 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: imagine they really said or believed, because this is the party, 371 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:27,479 Speaker 1: mind you, who wants to import the trashiest, most violent, 372 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: most perverted, most evil people that each third world has 373 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 1: or third world country has, like going in looking for him. Okay, 374 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: you're a murderer on the run. Good, Okay, you've been 375 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 1: convicted of pedophilia five times, or we'll take you. And 376 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: when they get here, they were giving these illegal aliens 377 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: and still are. We haven't been able to stop it yet, 378 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: even though the process is in place. But they were 379 00:24:54,119 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: giving them free housing, free phones, jobs, government fits, you 380 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: name it. And now you're saying of Elon Musk, well 381 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: he's only been here for twenty two years. But the 382 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: bigger question here is this. We have tolerated in this 383 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: country violence and terrorism. And I don't mean a terroristic threat, 384 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: I mean terroristic actions. What we ought to do is shoot. 385 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 1: What we ought to do is arrest and throw them 386 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: away for good. You know, during the BLM protests, there 387 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: was a black officer, black security guard. I don't think 388 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: he was a cop. I think he was a retired 389 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: cop when he was a security guard about seventy two 390 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: years old, if I recall, And what made this so 391 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: powerful was that it was filmed and there he laid 392 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 1: on a slope like a an entrance to an underground 393 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: parking garage or something, and he bled out. And I 394 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: just sat there watching that again and again and again, 395 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: thinking this man's life mattered, but not to them, not 396 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,360 Speaker 1: to the people arguing whose life should and shouldn't matter. 397 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: And he happened to be black. Even if you only 398 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: think black lives matter, which is what a lot of 399 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: those people think. Let's call it what it is. Most 400 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: of these activists on behalf of supposedly protecting trainees or 401 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: black people or illegal aliens. They really hate white people 402 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: when you get right down to it. It makes people uncomfortable. 403 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: They hate white people. And by the way, black people 404 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: hate black people when black people don't stay on the reservation, 405 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: don't stay on the plantation. You just look at the 406 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: nasty things said about black folks who dare to have 407 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,920 Speaker 1: an independent opinion, whether they're criticizing Wesley Hunt for being 408 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: a conservative Republican congressman, or they're criticizing a member of 409 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: the Trump administration. Ooh, it's called the crab in the bucket. 410 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 1: Blacks hate when blacks are independent because it makes them 411 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: look bad and it shows other black folks. Hey, you 412 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: can have your own opinion. You don't have to go 413 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: with the crowd. It ain't easy. You're going to get 414 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 1: at a minimum picked on at the family picnic. You're 415 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: going to get you know, ribbed, maybe insulted, Maybe some 416 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: members of your family won't have you come over anymore. 417 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: That's what the cult of liberalism does. But we've tolerated 418 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: too much violence and it has to stop. There's a 419 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 1: story out of fire, out of Denver, Fox Started, one Denver, 420 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: and I want you to listen to what's being done. 421 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: And this is pure and simple terrorism. And I honestly 422 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: believe that these people should be arrested and they should 423 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: be put away for a very long time. And this 424 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: is true of people who get out in the road 425 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 1: and block the road. This is true of people who 426 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 1: throw rocks through windows. I mean, half of Minneapolis should 427 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: be serving out of prison sentence for the Black Lives 428 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: Matter what they call protests. That is pure and simple terrorism, 429 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: and it's happening too often. Here's the story from Fox Started, 430 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: One Denver. 431 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 3: It was an incredibly busy night, as every night here 432 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 3: at level. This seems to be just after midnight on Friday, 433 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 3: we had a call of a arson or a fire 434 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 3: at the Tessler Dealership. So our officer arrived in under 435 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 3: two minutes, noticed a fire and it immediately extinguished it. 436 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 10: The building in several vehicles were also damaged by what 437 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 10: appear to have been thrown rocks. Loveland please say the 438 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 10: arson started from an incendiary device between two vehicles. 439 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 3: The presumption is that the attempt was made to break 440 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 3: the glass of the building itself in order to place 441 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 3: the incendiary device inside the building, and that didn't work. 442 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 10: It did not work, which Loveland Police Chief Tim Dorin 443 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 10: says could have been a lot worse as people were 444 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 10: inside Tesla at the time. 445 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 3: It's really troubling when one particular business is targeted. All 446 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 3: we recognize that the heart of this community is in 447 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,959 Speaker 3: supporting the businesses. 448 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: That are here. 449 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 10: This comes after four similar incidents targeted the Tesla and 450 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 10: Loveland since the end of January. With some consistencies found 451 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 10: by LPD and the incendiary devices. 452 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 3: They are generally filled with gasoline and lit with wicks, 453 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 3: and we have seen that they can be extremely dangerous 454 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 3: to those that are anywhere nearby, and I love them. 455 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 10: Please tell me they are following several leads on a 456 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 10: suspect and are working very closely, not only with TESLA 457 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 10: but also with their federal partners at the ATF. 458 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: You know why they do this because there are no consequences. 459 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: Robert Lewis Stevenson famously said, sooner or later everyone sits 460 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: down to a banquet of consequences. Well, I think there 461 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: should be earthly consequences. I think they should be swift, 462 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: and I think they should matter. It should scare people. 463 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: I can't remember who said it. Logical consequences are the 464 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: scarecrows of fools and the beacons of wise men. There 465 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: must be logical consequences for actions. How did it get 466 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:57,479 Speaker 1: to be the case in this country that protesters can 467 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: get out in the middle of the road and block 468 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: piece some of whom might be headed to the hospital 469 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: to deliver a baby, some of who might be having 470 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: a heart attack, but all of whom have every reasonable 471 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: expectation that they can travel on the road and some 472 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: other fool won't get out in front of them. How 473 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: did it get to be the case that nobody runs 474 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: them over. Oh you can't do that, Michael, You'll get 475 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: in trouble. You can't do that. A jury will convict you. 476 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: How did this get to be the case? How did 477 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: we allow our country to devolve so far? I'll tell 478 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: you this, And it has a lot to do with 479 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: the conversation we're going to have in the next house 480 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: with a fellow who questions what does it mean to 481 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: be an American? And he has an answer, and he 482 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: dares say that this Palestinian hamas nutjob terrorist at Columbia 483 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: to President Trump's trying to kick out the country, that 484 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: that guy could never actually be an American. He might 485 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: have qualified at some point for a passport if he 486 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: lived here a long time, but he would never be 487 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: an American. What does that mean? You don't have to 488 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: agree with his answer. 489 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 5: It's a question. 490 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: You should be able to ask yourself this question. 491 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 2: You should have an answer.
