WEBVTT - Comey, Conspiracies, and Consequences 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:01.600 Thanks to all of you for being with us. Right 0:00:01.639 --> 0:00:04.800 down are toll free telephone number. If you want to 0:00:04.840 --> 0:00:07.200 be a part of the program, it is eight hundred 0:00:07.240 --> 0:00:09.879 and ninety four one Sean if you want to join us. 0:00:10.760 --> 0:00:12.840 Linda would have disowned me if I went to the 0:00:13.000 --> 0:00:18.239 state dinner lest King yall, and why would you have 0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:20.360 disowned me? He said that to me today. That was 0:00:20.480 --> 0:00:22.040 very mean. 0:00:22.160 --> 0:00:24.200 Well, if you want to be a trader to God 0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:26.520 and country and go dying with Chucky and Camilla, that's 0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:27.160 what you deserve. 0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:31.200 I'm not going to be a trader to my country 0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:34.640 if I go to a stay dinner. Although I will 0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:37.360 tell you this, I don't believe in bowing to anybody. 0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:41.559 You know, the tradition is yeah, that's right. And well, 0:00:41.560 --> 0:00:44.200 I would not have bowed to the King. I would 0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:46.960 have shaken his hand extended. 0:00:47.479 --> 0:00:50.479 I got so many emails yesterday about us playing this 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.400 and people saying I should have played My Country Tis 0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:55.200 of Thee instead of this. 0:00:56.960 --> 0:00:57.280 I can't. 0:00:57.400 --> 0:00:59.000 I don't even know where people get my email there. 0:00:59.080 --> 0:01:01.600 Well, the fact that this triggers you is more entertaining 0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:04.720 to me than anything else. I had a lot of friends, 0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:06.480 a lot of people from Fox one to it. I 0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:09.160 was invited to it, but I you know, I've worked 0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.840 to do. I mean I did the radio show, I 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.120 did a podcast and then I did TV. I mean 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:16.880 I've worked to do and I covered last night. 0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.399 Chuckie hasn't worked in a long time. Boss, he's he 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:21.880 can't relate, you know, he said. 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:25.920 Around people's I mean, look, I mean, can any of 0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:27.920 us relate to a king? 0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:28.200 No. 0:01:29.400 --> 0:01:32.440 I did have our friend Piers morganon afterwards, and you know, 0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:36.880 all of my criticisms of Europe is a continent and 0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:39.880 Great Britain in particular, I did bring up with him 0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:43.759 and I you know, we have Neville Chamberlain's Starmer now 0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:46.839 that wouldn't even allow our planes to land at bases 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:50.760 in the UK, which to me is unforgivable. And I 0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:55.320 think between the UK and France and Spain and Italy 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:59.240 and other countries, I think the NATO alliance is headed for, 0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:01.560 you know, a collapse. And I don't think that we're 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:03.680 going to pay two thirds of the freight moving forward. 0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:06.639 And then I brought up the issue of Sharia courts. 0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:09.880 He did not really dispute anything that I was saying, 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:13.079 although he said, well, they don't really have any lawful 0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:17.760 recognition in Great Britain. I would argue in the world, 0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:21.399 if you're separating yourself from a country that you have assimilated, 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:26.440 that you refuse to assimilate into, it's a problem because 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:30.000 you are clinging to you have no desire to be 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:33.079 a part of the country that you have now chosen 0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:35.920 to be in. And I think that's a massive problem. 0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:40.400 And I think unfettered illegal immigration and even legal immigration 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:44.880 without assimilation is going to end up biting them all 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:48.160 the you know what. And I also think that you know, 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:51.600 on top of embracing radical socialism and climate alarmism, has 0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:55.000 hurt these countries. And I think neglecting national security and 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:58.480 national defense issues, not paying their fair share to NATO, 0:02:59.800 --> 0:03:01.840 I think there's going to be a very dear price 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:05.200 to pay. I think as a continent, the continent of 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.239 Europe is in a precipitous decline and I'm not sure 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:09.920 if they're even going to be able to save it. 0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:13.440 And it's not just sharia courts in Great Britain, it's 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:17.120 no go zones in France and other parts of Great Britain. 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:19.520 I think it's going to be a big problem. I 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.800 don't wish it for them. We have had a special 0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:28.560 relationship with Great Britain for many, many years, and ideally 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:33.320 it would continue. However, it's not ideal when you have 0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:37.520 a defense alliance. And at one point during the conversation, 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.360 you know, Piers brought up well, I think one of 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:46.480 the reasons that Neville Chamberlain Starmer didn't engage or want 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:50.600 any part of the conflict with Iran is because of 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:52.520 the way the Iraq War turned out. And I said, well, 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:54.640 number one, it's a different president. Number two, he has 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:58.560 a different doctrine. Number three, he's not four or forever wars? 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:02.920 And number four, where is the moral clarity of Great 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.960 Britain standing up against the number one state sponsor of terror? 0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:09.120 And that part really frustrated me, And I said, wouldn't 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:14.400 a more appropriate analogy be negating mitigating the threat of 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:18.120 Nazi Germany before millions of people died. And it's almost 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.760 like the continent of Europe learned nothing from World War Two. 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:25.040 I think it's more appropriate. We have some news today 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:29.919 as a direct consequence of this morning Supreme Court decision 0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:34.039 against racial jerry mandering. Republicans now in eight states have 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:38.479 a chance to redraw more than a dozen congressional districts, 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.880 all of which are held by Democrats, and its effects 0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:46.960 will be felt far beyond Congress and maps for state legislatures, 0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:52.400 county boards, city councils, countless other government bodies have since 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:56.080 the Voting Rights Act passage in nineteen sixty five, they 0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:58.880 have been required to comply with this act, and the 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.479 House of Representative now will experience the most high profile 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.559 impact of today's Supreme Court ruling. This is a big deal. 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.560 If you believe in equal justice, equal application of our laws, 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:16.359 you don't draw congressional districts based on people's race anyway. 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:20.320 Giving out closely, you know, the divided chamber is in 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:24.479 the House. Alterations to a handful of seeds could tip 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.800 the balance of power. So we'll see how this ultimately 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:29.480 plays out. But this is the final say so here. 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:33.760 We'll get to this later with John Solomon and Greg Jarrett. 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:40.040 James Comy turned himself in at a Virginia courthouse indicted 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:44.400 presidential you know, eighty six forty seven suspect. James Comy 0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:46.920 decided not to wait until the squad cars showed up 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:49.240 at his house this morning to haul him off to 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:53.640 police headquarters. He turned himself in at a Virginia courthouse. 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.599 I guess he probably wanted to avoid a purp walk. 0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:59.680 But you know, there's no word as to whether he 0:05:59.760 --> 0:06:02.240 was an immediately put in leg irons, which is what 0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:05.200 called me Chris Ray and their FBI did to Trump 0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:09.240 advisor Peter Navarro and anyway, call me turned himself in 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:13.360 federal authorities Alexandria, Virginia. But you know, I will tell 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:15.440 you this, and I don't want to. I don't want 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:19.000 to dismiss the importance of this. And I think it 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:22.160 was a great lie that called me told isn't this interesting? 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:23.800 Wasn't that the post that he put up or something 0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:28.239 to that effect. Isn't this interesting? Eighty six forty seven? 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:32.960 The guy's a former FBI director. He knows exactly what 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:35.200 he was posting on Instagram when he put that up. 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:38.560 He knows exactly what it means. And you know, oh, 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:41.599 I have no idea what this means I've done and whatsoever. 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:44.960 I don't know what it means. Uh, yeah, you can 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:46.960 put it, put it up if you want to play it. Sure. 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:48.880 I don't know if you do this on purpose just 0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:51.320 to get attention here, but you. 0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:52.960 You in this Instagram Instagram. 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.040 You grammed this. You were walking on the beach. 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:55.800 What happened? 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:57.960 You walking on the beach and you saw this on 0:06:58.040 --> 0:06:58.400 the beach. 0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:00.359 Yeah, my wife and I, Patres, were walking on the 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:03.440 beach and saw those numbers in shells on the beach. 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:04.160 And you didn't do that. 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:04.920 Somebody else did that. 0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:06.680 Yeah, somebody else did it. We were on a walk 0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:09.160 preparing for this week roll out of my book. 0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:09.479 Yep. 0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:11.320 She looked at it and said, why'd someone put their 0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:12.320 address in the sand? 0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:13.040 All right? 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:15.520 And then we stood at it trying. 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:16.760 To figure looked at it trying to figure out what 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:18.960 it was. And she'd long been a server in restaurants, 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:20.240 and she said, you know what I think it is. 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.080 I think it's a reference to restaurants. When you'd eighty 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:24.800 six something in a restaurant, it's. 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:25.160 Off the menu. 0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:27.320 Yeah, I said, no, I remember as a kid, you'd 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.440 say eighty six to get out of a place. This 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:30.680 place stinks, So it's eighty six. 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:32.960 I was a bartender, you would eighty six a customer 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:34.680 if they were getting drunk, like that's eighty six. And 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:37.559 this did give them a low proof alcohol or something 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:37.880 like that. 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:39.720 Yeah, And so I said, I think. 0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:42.720 It's a clever political message, and she said you should 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:44.440 take a picture of it. I said sure, and then 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:50.119 she said you should instagram that and boom. 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:53.400 I don't believe that for a second. That's my own 0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:56.280 personal point of view, mister higher honor. I think you 0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:58.720 knew exactly what he was doing. So where to believe 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:03.720 that the term eighty six somebody eighty six forty seven 0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:06.920 Donald Trump being the president, that he had no earthly 0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:10.440 idea what that meant. I just don't buy it. But 0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:13.920 I just want to remind people this is not, you know, 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:17.320 that's the low hanging fruit as it relates to Jim Comey, 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.280 mister higher honor, It's not the stuff that I think 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:23.840 that ultimately he's going to have to worry about. Wall 0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:28.120 Street Journal reporting today that the Iranian economy has descended 0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:31.120 into a death spiral. Loran's economy now in a full 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:35.280 blown collapse. They are reporting war has imposed a heavy 0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:39.880 cost on the Iranian economy. Widespread unemployment. We've talked about this, 0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:42.200 half the workforce is out of work, two hundred percent 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:47.439 inflation rate, their currency is worth zero, soaring food prices, 0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:52.000 prolonged internet shutdowns. It is slammed online businesses. The war 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:54.640 now has thrown about a million people out of work, 0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:59.280 more than that directly, another million indirectly, according to estimate 0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:02.200 cited by Iran Labor and Social Affairs Ministry, which I 0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:04.240 don't believe. I think it's far worse than that, as 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:10.160 others have estimated the cost of living up nearly double. Now, 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:13.920 the President did make the comment he's instructed AIDS to 0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:18.000 prepare for an extended blockade of Iran, But I am 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:21.640 told that the President's patience on Iran is running very, 0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:24.960 very thin, and I would not at all be surprised 0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:28.679 if he brings back military strikes on top of the blockade, 0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:33.679 on top of the anticipated now end of I mean, 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:36.680 they're running out of storage for their oil. What does 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:40.320 that mean? That means they're oil producing wells will have 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:43.320 to be shut down. What does that mean? That means 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:47.280 that whatever level of production they may be at, if 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:51.400 they reconstitute those wells in the future, at best you 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:56.000 can hope for maybe fifty to sixty percent production rates 0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:59.280 of what it once was once you shut down a well, 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:03.000 once you that well experts have told me, and I've 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:07.880 read it, you know extensively that the production goes down significantly, 0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:10.920 you know, but this is you know, a republic that's 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:13.600 been at war since its inception. But I think the 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:17.520 combination of this blockade, you know what it's like for 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:20.840 Iran's economy to be shut down, coupled with more military 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:24.040 strikes strategic ones, I think will be the end of it. 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:29.400 But we'll see. But there's an interesting side note to 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:33.200 all of this. OPEK and their stranglehold over the global 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:38.400 economy is now finally coming apart at the seams, which 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:40.040 I think is a good thing in the end. There 0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:42.840 was a good New York Post editorial about this today, 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:45.800 and the efforts of the president both home and abroad, 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:50.360 the result will be freer markets long term, lower energy prices, 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:56.560 less debt for developing nations. And when on Tuesday, the 0:10:56.720 --> 0:11:00.480 United Arab Emirates, you know, along with frustrating that are 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.439 frustrated with OPEC's limits on their oil production, declared their 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:07.040 intent to leave the consortium within days to be free 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:11.000 to me demand on their own terms. That's going to 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:14.320 end up being great for consumers because the production and 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:18.320 price of oil should be set by supply and demand, 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:22.800 in other words, global demand, not the whims of people 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.720 that are organizing so they can artificially increase the price 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:29.840 of such now. Opek began flexing their muscles after the 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.600 yan Kapor War that was nineteen seventy three, when it 0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:35.840 refused to sell oil to any nation that supported Israel, 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:39.600 and the ensuing oil shocks saw a price as triple. 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.400 I mean, Linda, you don't remember this when I was 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:45.400 growing up. I mean during the Carter years, have we 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.560 had to wait in line just to be able to 0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:51.160 fill up our car. It was terrible, It was awful. 0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:53.840 It was like what we did with toilet paper during COVID. 0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:54.400 Same thing. 0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:57.199 No, that's what you did with toilet paper. 0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.240 I didn't do that, No, no, no, I didn't lose 0:11:59.240 --> 0:11:59.520 my mind. 0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:02.959 Had I got all the toilet paper I wanted during COVID? 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:06.720 Everything I needed, everything I wanted. It just so happened. 0:12:06.760 --> 0:12:10.400 My father knew a gas station owner, and this guy 0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:14.280 blockaded an area where you could just sneak your car in, 0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:16.320 fill up your gas tank, and get out of there. 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.000 And he only used it for his regular customers, which 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:21.080 was a pretty cool thing for us. We didn't have 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:23.360 to wait on those long lines. People would wait online 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:25.840 and they'd be you know, at most allowed to, you know, 0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:28.440 put five dollars worth of gas in their car. I mean, 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:31.440 oh god, who wouldever want to go back to those days? 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:34.400 Thank God I have my Tesla just in case I 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.080 got I got a gas car, and I got an 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:41.040 electric car. An electric car goes much faster than the 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:47.480 gas powered car. So we'll see what happens. Obama's gaff 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:51.720 about the White House Correspondence dinner shooter Cole Allen is 0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:56.840 the latest in the former president's legacy of lies. And anyway, 0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:59.520 his post presidency has kind of been a bit of 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.600 a disap. Did you read all the stories online about 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:05.680 him and him and Michelle and him and Michelle and 0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:09.240 the kids. I mean, it doesn't sound like the greatest 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:14.480 emerging image picture that you would expect. But anyway, we 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:17.360 haven't got the details of the motives behind the shooter, 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:22.080 he said, began Obama's you know, Sunday evening statement about 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:25.439 the gunman. He said, except by the time Obama got 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.640 around to acknowledging the attack, the entire world knew why 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:33.400 Cole Thomas Allen had attempted to storm that ballroom where 0:13:33.440 --> 0:13:36.360 President Trump and much of the administration were breaking bread 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:40.840 with the quote fourth of State, meaning the liberal legacy 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:46.000 media mob. And anyway, I am no longer willing to permit, 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:49.600 you know. And he goes on and attacking President Trump 0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:53.280 and his manifesto, et cetera. He's getting hammered because of 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:56.679 what he said. You know, James Carville, he can't beat 0:13:56.679 --> 0:13:59.840 the anti Crist. He's too dumb. An Antichrist would be smarter. 0:14:00.720 --> 0:14:02.920 I can see that the left has really calmed down 0:14:03.000 --> 0:14:06.360 their rhetoric in light of what happened Saturday night. That 0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:09.240 didn't take long at all. Can't make that up either. 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:13.000 The FBI has rated over twenty locations in Minnesota as 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:17.679 the DOJ's investigation into Somali welfare fraud has now hit 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.200 the ground running. We'll give you details on that coming 0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:25.360 UPTI rating more than twenty locations in Minneapolis today in 0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:29.640 connection with the ongoing fraud investigations. The raids said to 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:34.280 be largely impacting the Somali linked businesses. Today, the FBI 0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:38.880 with federal, state local law enforcement involved in court authorized 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:43.320 law enforcement activity part of an ongoing fraud investigation. My 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:47.360 prediction Watch out for California after California, Watch out for 0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:49.760 New York after the New York. Watch out for Illinois. 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:52.600 It's not going to stop. And Tim Walls has a 0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:58.200 shocking reaction to all of this. He said, he said 0:14:58.200 --> 0:15:00.440 he was putting criminals on notice in the the FBI 0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:03.160 was working with state officials. No, they're doing this in 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.560 spite of him. The FBI director Cash Bettel actually called 0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:10.840 him out on this, He writes, come again after Walls 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:16.720 claimed that Tuesday's raids happened because of his state agencies. 0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:18.520 Now I'm not true if I told you about the 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:21.240 Supreme Court ruling this morning. This is a big deal, 0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:27.160 as the Supreme Court decision against racial jerry mandering is 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:32.560 probably going to have a huge impact on the twenty 0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:37.400 twenty six elections, especially in the state of Florida anyway. 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:41.000 As a consequence of this decision, Republicans in eight states 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:44.880 now have a chance to redraw more than a dozen 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:49.040 congressional districts, all of which are held by Democrats. Now, 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:52.360 Governor Ron DeSantis in my free state of Florida has 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:56.920 already said that he plans to redraw these districts, and 0:15:57.000 --> 0:15:59.760 it could very well result in four or more seats 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:04.120 that would be safer for Republican candidates. This is going 0:16:04.200 --> 0:16:06.720 to be a big deal, especially in light of the fact, 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:09.000 as I told you, I didn't think what happened in 0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:13.160 the Commonwealth of Virginia would ever hold constitutional or judicial 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:17.640 review or constitutional muster. But anyway, the impact of this 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:21.560 is far beyond Congress maps for state legislatures and county 0:16:21.560 --> 0:16:25.480 boards and city councils and other governmental bodies. You know, 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:28.960 since the Voting Right Rights Act was passed in nineteen 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:32.480 sixty five, the Civil Rights Act in nineteen sixty four. 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:35.600 By the way, historically it was Lending Me Johnson that 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:39.240 relied on Republicans to get this over the finish line, 0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:43.320 because people like al Gore's father and people like Robert 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:48.440 former Klansman kkk Byrd and Joe Biden who once partner 0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:51.960 with the former Klansmen to stop the integration of public schools. 0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:54.440 Just a little history. It took Republicans to get the 0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:57.320 sixty four Civil Rights Act passed, the Voting Rights Act 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.680 passed in sixty five. But anyway, the House of Representatives 0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:04.840 now will experience the most high profile impact of today's 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:10.159 Supreme Court ruling, And given how closely divided the Chamber is, 0:17:10.320 --> 0:17:13.760 this could have a big impact. What does it mean, 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:16.760 especially in the state of Florida. Well, it's too early 0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:19.240 to determine, but I think in light of what Governor 0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:22.560 DeSantis has said, this is probably going to be a 0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:24.880 state that is highly watched by everybody, and I think 0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:29.120 probably the most impactful. Jim Schwartzel is with us. He's 0:17:29.160 --> 0:17:33.000 in the nineteenth District, which you know would comprise Naples 0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:36.080 and Beanita Springs, and I get I assume places like 0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:39.720 Fort Myers as well is with us. Sir, welcome back 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:42.440 to the program. Glad you're with us. How are you hi? 0:17:42.520 --> 0:17:47.240 Thank you? Sean. Yes. District nineteen is all of southwest 0:17:47.240 --> 0:17:51.680 Florida from Cape Coral to Naples, Florida, your former. 0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:54.760 Home, Yeah, I lived there. I had a place in 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:59.560 southwest Florida for over twenty plus years and love Southwest Florida. 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:02.240 I can tell you the best restaurants in Naples on 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:06.040 Fifth Avenue Chops, Regina's, and if you want the best 0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:08.600 people watching in the history of mankind, go to the 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:14.280 Blue Martini, which I'm sure you don't frequent. I do not, No, 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:18.879 most normal people would not. But anyway, so what do 0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:20.840 you think the impact of this is going to be 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:23.639 and what do you think the Tallahasseees impact is going 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:24.800 to be on this on top. 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:27.800 Of it, Well, I'm pleased to report that the Florida 0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:30.880 House and the Florida Senate just passed it. So the 0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:34.560 redistricting bill is making its way to Governor DeSantis's desk. 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:38.040 And I'm really proud of both President Trump and for 0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:42.159 Governor DeSantis for calling the special session and pushing this. 0:18:42.240 --> 0:18:45.560 I think the ruby red state of Florida will be 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:47.920 properly reflected once this is done. 0:18:49.119 --> 0:18:51.239 Yeah. I mean, we have a big radio presence there, 0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:54.080 as you know, on ninety two to five Fox News Radio, 0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:59.159 which does extraordinarily well, and people in the area really 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:03.920 loves talk information, et cetera. And I think that the 0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:07.919 people in southwest Florida are definitely going to pay attention 0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:10.080 to this, and I think it could be more impactful 0:19:10.080 --> 0:19:12.240 than people have any idea about. What do you think. 0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:15.879 Well, that's why I started ninety two five Fox News 0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:18.160 and you know, I'm proud to be one of your 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:22.439 first affiliates in the country. And I remember when you 0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:25.280 even recorded, not recorded, but when you did some of 0:19:25.320 --> 0:19:29.280 your shows live from our studios in Fort Myers. 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:32.240 I do, and I still remember devote Cadillac. I think 0:19:32.240 --> 0:19:35.440 I had more Cadillac Escalades than anybody in the history 0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:39.680 of buying Cadillacs, because I bought one after another, after another, 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:44.080 after another after another. And they're great people down at 0:19:44.080 --> 0:19:47.639 the vote, and I know they're a big advertiser of yours. 0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:52.119 Let's talk about I mean the beauty. It's so interesting 0:19:52.160 --> 0:19:55.720 because Florida to me is kind of bifurcated. You have 0:19:56.040 --> 0:19:59.720 in Southwest Florida, you have more people from the Midwest. 0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:03.639 In Southeast Florida, you tend to have more people from 0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:07.840 the Northeast. There's way too many former New Yorkers and 0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:11.120 people from New Jersey in Southeast Florida. There's a big 0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:13.320 difference there is. 0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:16.320 Yeah, we we have a lot more of people that 0:20:16.400 --> 0:20:21.760 are leaving the sanctuary cities of Chicago and Minneapolis and 0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:26.000 so forth and coming to Southwest Florida. And we're happy 0:20:26.000 --> 0:20:30.080 to have those strong Republicans that are distraught with their 0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:33.040 former hometowns here. You know. 0:20:33.119 --> 0:20:34.960 The only thing I say to people, and I don't 0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:37.600 care if you come from the Midwest, and by the Midwest, 0:20:37.600 --> 0:20:41.760 I mean Ohio and Indiana and even Illinois. People you know, 0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:45.280 are that are moving to southwest Florida or people that 0:20:45.400 --> 0:20:48.719 are from the Northeast that move to southeast Florida. You know, 0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:50.720 the only thing I have to say is there should 0:20:50.720 --> 0:20:54.719 be one mandatory requirement. Don't bring your dumb liberal policies 0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:57.240 with you and ruin Florida the way you ruin the 0:20:57.240 --> 0:20:58.400 state you left. 0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:02.480 We've ad since COVID, We've added over a million and 0:21:02.560 --> 0:21:07.680 a half Republican registered voters. So it's the states now, 0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:10.160 Ruby read and getting stronger every single day. 0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:14.240 Now, have you gotten the support of the governor or 0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:15.200 where do you stand with that? 0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:19.960 Well, the governor is not weighing in on this race. 0:21:20.520 --> 0:21:23.639 What I'm doing is I'm supporting Byron Donald's and his 0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:26.120 race to be our next governor. He will be our 0:21:26.119 --> 0:21:27.960 next governor, and. 0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:29.720 He's he's going to win those race hands down. I 0:21:29.720 --> 0:21:31.840 haven't even paid that much attention to it because it's 0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:33.920 like a no brainer, yep. 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:37.520 And we have a strong, local, rock solid conservative like 0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:42.440 myself to to support President Trump like Byron did. 0:21:43.720 --> 0:21:48.680 Yeah, there's no doubt. Do you worry at all about 0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:51.480 where we are at this moment? Now, I'm making the 0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:56.679 argument that the issues that will impact us in November 0:21:56.720 --> 0:21:59.719 have not even happened yet. In other words, if the 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:02.480 war with the Ran winds down, if we have enough 0:22:02.560 --> 0:22:06.560 runway time for the presidents, He's laid an economic foundation 0:22:06.680 --> 0:22:09.359 for the country. We're talking about trillions of dollars in 0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:14.840
