1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: Oh, well, come in. We are having a great Wednesday

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: wherever you may be across the country. Encourage you to

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 1: go download the podcast. Make sure you don't miss a moment.

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: We've got a fun show headed your way. Trump versus ABC.

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,439
Speaker 1: We're going to have some fun breaking that down for you.

6
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've seen this report yet, Buck,

7
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: but I definitely love it. House Minority leader Hakeem Jeffries

8
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: has supposedly told his entire caucus no more trips to

9
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: El Salvador. As the Abraio Garcia story has begun to

10
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: blow up in Democrats faces, more and more details coming

11
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,160
Speaker 1: out about how crazy that story is. The New York

12
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:48,919
Speaker 1: Times has discovered a brand new hot trend that they

13
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: had no idea. What's going on? People, Buck are wearing

14
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: cross necklaces and The New York Times has a style

15
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: section expos A diving into this new hot trend which

16
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 1: has existed for hundreds of years. And some of these

17
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: people Christians good hell. I just I think sometimes when

18
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: I see the stories like the New York Times had

19
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: a story recently, I don't know if you saw it, Buck,

20
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: where it said like Beyonce makes the cowboy hat matter

21
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: and I was like, Oh, that's really interesting, because I've

22
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: known the cowboy hat being pretty popular for a long time.

23
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: I don't know that I saw Beyonce as the person

24
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: who made the cowboy hat relevant. But these are the

25
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: kinds of things that sometimes you will read if you

26
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: do as I do, start your day every morning by

27
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: seeing what the New York Times has put out there. Okay,

28
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: we got a bunch of different stories to dive into.

29
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: But I thought vined Trump last night as the ABC

30
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: News one hundred Day interview just ricocheted around the internet.

31
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: I saw you were sharing parts of it, Buck, I

32
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: saw it. This is Terry Moran, I believe is his name.

33
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: And Trump really kind of had had fun with the

34
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: fact that nobody really knows who this guy is several

35
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: different times. But I thought, really, the one that was

36
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: the punchiest and echoed the most around the country was

37
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: when he called out ABC as being a part of

38
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 1: the legacy media cabal that refused to cover Joe Biden's sinility.

39
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: Here is cut three. This has gone megaviral.

40
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 2: Do you think the reputation in the United States has

41
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: gone down under your presidence?

42
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: No, I think it's.

43
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 3: Gone way up and I think we're a respected country. Again,

44
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: we were left at all over the world. We had

45
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 3: a president that couldn't walk up a flight of stairs,

46
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 3: couldn't walk down a flight of stairs, couldn't walk across

47
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,239
Speaker 3: the stage without falling. We had a president that was

48
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 3: grossly incompetent. You knew it. I knew it, and everybody

49
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 3: knew it, but you guys didn't want to write it

50
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 3: because you're fake news.

51
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: All right, thank you.

52
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 3: By the way, ABC is one of the worst. I

53
00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 3: have to be honest.

54
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you right to his face. I mean, he

55
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: nailed it. And people say, okay, why is this a

56
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: story now? Well, we just had the White House correspondence

57
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 1: dinner where all of the media are basically trying to

58
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: self flagellate now and say, oh, how could we have known?

59
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: How could we have missed a story like this? And

60
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: Jake Tapper's got a book that's coming out suddenly talking

61
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 1: about how awful Biden is? Did you see the audience

62
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: response on that was do not have that guy on

63
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: the sacred airwaves? So we got we got to talk

64
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: about this, we got to do an off. We should

65
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: have I think we should have him on because the

66
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: number one thing that actually I think echoes. So I

67
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: appreciate the fact that people who listen on a regular

68
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: Just to be clear, you're saying you want to put

69
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: the brass knuckles on Clay. This is shocking everybody in

70
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: the audience. Yes, yeah, Well look, I think that what

71
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: I see echoing on a regular basis across the Information

72
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: super Highway aka the Internet and on all the social

73
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: media platforms is holding people accountable actually matters, and there's

74
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: a desperate desire for it. And so I think we

75
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: should have Jake Tapper on and hold him accountable for

76
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: the lies that he has helped to spread while lecturing

77
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: everyone about the truth that he is telling. And he's

78
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: very slippery. He's gonna come on, he's gonna start dropping

79
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: some knowledge about some SEC teams. He's gonna say, you know, Clay,

80
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: I love your analysis on the balls. You know, I'm

81
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: telling you man, I don't think Tapper knows anything about

82
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: college football. Your your point. He'll pretend, Oh yeah, but

83
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: I I see. But that's worse than just being honest

84
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: and acknowledging that you don't have any knowledge of a subject.

85
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: That all right, So I think they need to be

86
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: hoisted on their proverbial petard. And here's the other thing.

87
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 1: It will echo beyond the audience of this show. This

88
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,559
Speaker 1: show is a great platform. We got a big audience.

89
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: We appreci all of you who listen every single day.

90
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: But I think immensely now about how do you reach

91
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 1: beyond the choir? Right, The choir's great, and you know,

92
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: if you are in a church, typically choir is going

93
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: to show up. They're going to stand behind the minister,

94
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: They're going to support them. They are the you know,

95
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 1: and you're preach into the choir in the proverbial connotation there.

96
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: But in order to really change the world or change

97
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: the nation, you have to reach sometimes outside of the

98
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: congregation and connect with people who may not know that

99
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: you are existing on a day to day basis. And

100
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: what I see, and I'll give him credit Scott Jennings

101
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: on CNN, he is connecting, I think, with an audience

102
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: that otherwise would not be hearing the arguments that are

103
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: made by a Republican and he's actually dismantling arguments that

104
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: are made by the left. And I think that's incredibly valuable. Look,

105
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: I just came off Harris Faulkner's show. I'm on Fox

106
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: News pretty much every day you're on Fox News a lot.

107
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 1: It's by far the biggest audience out there and has

108
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: tremendous impact. But if you are someone who watches MSNBC

109
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: or CNN, you oftentimes have no idea the arguments that

110
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: we would make. And everybody out there listening to us,

111
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: because so much of popular culture is steeped in the left,

112
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: we actually know the arguments that the left makes. I

113
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: think our arguments are better, and it's why I've come

114
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: back a bunch of times buck to the debate between

115
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom and Ron DeSantis that Sean Hannity hosted, and

116
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: Ron DeSantis obliterated Gavin Newsom, and I think it was

117
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 1: because Gavin Newsom is not used to actually being held accountable,

118
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: because usually he's got interviewers who are lifting him up

119
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: and parading him as if he is a paragon of

120
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: virtue because they are of the left, and he was

121
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: not prepared for the arguments that he saw from DeSantis,

122
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 1: and I frankly don't think that Jake Tapper would be

123
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: prepared for us. And I think the collision of ideas

124
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: and arguments is actually what propels itself throughout the larger

125
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: media ecosystem and gets an out there to change hearts

126
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: and minds, like you going on, Bill Maher. Yes, the

127
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: crowd didn't like you, but I bet there were a

128
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: couple of people out there who saw your arguments and

129
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: they were like, Hey, this guy, I actually think he

130
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: might be correct, and they hadn't been exposed to what

131
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: you would argue. I think that's incredibly valuable. So that's

132
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: that's my argument for how you win is going into

133
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: places where people might not even be aware of the

134
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: arguments that you would make. Well after this, he's going

135
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: to be creeping into your DMS telling you let's go.

136
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: You know here, we have to we have to have

137
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: him on, I suppose, so I wonder if it'll be him.

138
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: I'll take the I'll take the blame. Anybody who's angry

139
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: Buck is Buck is not excited about it. I think

140
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: it's a I think it's a Donnie Brook. We should

141
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: set up. He likes the Eagles, the football. He's gonna

142
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: he's gonna try to pull the whole football fan thing

143
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: with you. But all right, all right, that's fine, that's fine.

144
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: It looks like we'll get a throat on going with that.

145
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: What doesn't work. Is trying to steamroll Trump in an

146
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: interview for ABC News, That's for sure. That did not

147
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: go as planned for this guy. Terry Moran, did we

148
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: already play with Trump? Is like tells him he's not

149
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: being he's not being very nice. Uh no, we haven't

150
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: played that yet. I don't trust you with that. Cut seven? Yeah,

151
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: I think, well, yeah, play play the cuts. He was

152
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: he was on fire with this stuff. Play cut seven.

153
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 4: Do you think Vladimir Putin wants peace?

154
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 3: I think he does, Yes, I think it does.

155
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: I think missiles. I think he really his.

156
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 3: His dream was to take over the whole country. I

157
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 3: think because of me, he's not gonna do that.

158
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: Do you trust him? I think do you trust him?

159
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 3: I don't trust you. I don't trust I don't trust

160
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 3: a lot of people. I don't trust you.

161
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 1: Look at you.

162
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 3: You're coming all shooting for bear, You're so happy to

163
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 3: do the end, and then you start hitting me with

164
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 3: fake questions. He started telling me that a guy whose

165
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 3: hand is covered with the tattoo doesn't have the tattoo.

166
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,119
Speaker 3: You know, I mean, you're being dishonest.

167
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: No, not lemon nuts.

168
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 3: I trust I don't trust a lot of people. But

169
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 3: I do think this. I think that he, let's say,

170
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 3: he respects me, and I believe because in me, he's

171
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 3: not going to take over the hold.

172
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: And then this turned into the big dispute about the

173
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: MS thirteen, which you heard him referencing there Buck, which

174
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: is cut one. And I think, well, just listen and

175
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 1: then we'll explain what we think is going on here.

176
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: Here's cut one's.

177
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 3: Murderous criminals in this country. We have to get him out,

178
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 3: and we're doing it violent. And you don't pick out

179
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 3: one man. But even the man that you picked out.

180
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 4: He's got a key, said he wasn't a member of

181
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 4: a gang.

182
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 3: And then they looked and on his knuckles he had MS.

183
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: There's a disco.

184
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, Wait a minute, he had MS thirteen

185
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 3: on his n We had some tattoos that are interpreted

186
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:56,839
Speaker 3: that way.

187
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: But let's move on.

188
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, I'll tear it.

189
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: Terry. He did not have the letter M S one.

190
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 3: It says MS one three.

191
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: That was the photoshop.

192
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 3: So let me do his photoshop.

193
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: Terry, you can't do that.

194
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 3: Hey, they're giving you the big break of a lifetime.

195
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 3: You know you're doing the interview. I picked you because frankly,

196
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 3: I never heard of you, but that's okay. I picked you, Terry, Hey,

197
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 3: but you're not being very nice. He had MS thirteen.

198
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 1: Tech we'll agree to disagree. I want to rive on

199
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 1: to something else.

200
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 3: Ry, do you over show you the picture?

201
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: I saw the picture. Well, the photoshop here we go here,

202
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: we don't photoshop.

203
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 3: But don't look at his hand. He had fist.

204
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: He did have tattoos that can be interpreted that way.

205
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: I'm not an expert on them. I want to turn

206
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: to Ukraine. I want to get to No.

207
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 3: No, he at MS as clear as you can be.

208
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: Not interpreted. This is why people.

209
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 3: No longer believe well the news because.

210
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: In El Salvador they aren't there. But let's just go

211
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: they aren't there when he's.

212
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 3: In there now right, No, but they're in your picture,

213
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 3: Terry Ukraine's he's got MS thirteen on his knuckles. Are okay,

214
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 3: it's such a disservice.

215
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: We'll take a look.

216
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 3: She'd just say, yes he does, and you know, go

217
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 3: on to something else.

218
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: All right. So I think the dispute here Buck is

219
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: Moran is saying, hey, you are this is ridiculous. But

220
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: they put the photo out right and it shows the tattoos,

221
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: which are signposts cultural signposts according to people who know

222
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 1: gangs to represent MS thirteen. And then above the photo

223
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: they showed you, Hey, this is the this is what

224
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: the M stands for, this is what the s this

225
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: is what the thirteen. And you correct me if I'm

226
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 1: wrong here, Buck, But I think what they're arguing about

227
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: is actually an interpretation that Trump believes. He's not willing

228
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 1: to acknowledge that that stands for MS thirteen. And then

229
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: Moran is trying to say, no, you wrote those letters

230
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: above it, and it's just like one big cluster. Well, also,

231
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: they're really willing to go to the mat for this guy,

232
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: aren't Yes, right, I mean they're that now all of

233
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: a sudden, every coincidence must be given in such a

234
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: or rather must be accepted in such a way that

235
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: there's a little more doubt cast on whether this guy.

236
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: When you look at this guy's record, he's a gang member. Okay,

237
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: this is multiple judges have found that he's a gang member.

238
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: In the past. He's been found in the company of gang.

239
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: How many MS thirteen gang members have you ever been

240
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 1: found in the company of clay I'll speak for myself.

241
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: Zero I have a feeling it's zero for you too,

242
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: so far as I know, I think it's zero. Yes,

243
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: good point. I'd be all of these coincidences are being

244
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: cited in order to undermine Trump on this issue. And

245
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: I also would just say this, I don't care, right,

246
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 1: this is this guy's not an American, he's gone, He's

247
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: not a problem anymore. I don't want to hear about it.

248
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I know why they're doing it. I'm not

249
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: oblivious to the rationale behind this as an assault on Trump. Oh,

250
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 1: the rule of law and all this other stuff. But

251
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: I think that what they fail to recognize is one

252
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: in the mood of the country about illegal immigration and

253
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: particularly illegal immigrant gang members. And two, we cannot have

254
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: a system where the law is not enforced and is

255
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: refused to be enforced when it comes to illegal entry

256
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 1: and staying here illegally. But then every legal statute, everything

257
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: imaginable has to be given in terms of process to

258
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: prevent the deportation of individuals. If that's the case, we

259
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: don't have a country anymore. We're just pretending. And that's

260
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: where I am on this. I think a lot of

261
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: people are on this too. I don't really care he's

262
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: not supposed to be here. He's gone, he's not an American.

263
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: Not our problem. And we'll come back and talk about

264
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: this in a little bit. But there is a report

265
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: that House Minority Leader Hakim Jefferies, it must be polling

266
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: really really bad. As we told you it was. Hey,

267
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:55,839
Speaker 1: go figure a gangland human trafficking wife beating non American

268
00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: illegal immigrant in El Salvador and try to make him

269
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: the face of unfair deportations has blown up in Democrat

270
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: party faces, such that their House Minority Leader Hakim Jefferies

271
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: is telling people stop with the El Salvador visits. I'm

272
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: told you this was going to poll poorly. Of course,

273
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: I know they'll say this is what aboutism, It's not.

274
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: This is actually about understanding whether there's a principle at

275
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: work here or not. Did a single one of these

276
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: Democrats who claim to care so much about due process

277
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: even raise a question about the solitary confinement and eighteen

278
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: month pre trial imprisonment of nonviolent January sixth defendants who

279
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: are Americans, not one. So they can cry about this

280
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,120

00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: Dougie b. I don't know if we've called him that yet,

311
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: but I think that's kind of a fun one for him.

312
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: He's the Interior Secretary, very important job, a lot that

313
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: goes under the umbrella of responsibility for the Interior Secretary.

314
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 1: Senator Marker I keep doing that. I've just known him

315
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: as Senator Rubio for the whole time I've been in

316
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: media pretty much. Secretary of State Marco Rubio sitting there

317
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: as well with Donald Trump. We want to bring you

318
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: some of the highlights of what has gone on so far.

319
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 1: And i'd say RFK Junior also sitting next to Dougie

320
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:04,719
Speaker 1: b Secretary Bergham, and he's doing his thing. I'm surprised.

321
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 1: Not a lot of controversy around Rfk Junior. I don't

322
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: mean on the personal side, but on the policy side.

323
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,199
Speaker 1: I would have thought by now they would be in

324
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: a full fledged freak out over him, but it hasn't

325
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: really happened. Let's dive into what has been going on

326
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: here and what they've been saying. As you know, Elon

327
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: Musk is also present at this cabinet meeting, and his

328
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: time with DOJE is as was planned. Don't forget, because

329
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,199
Speaker 1: he's a special government employee or whatever they call it.

330
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 1: As was planned, He's going to be rotating out and

331
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: going back to running his companies. This is cut twenty three.

332
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: Elon says, Well, Elon has some high praise for the

333
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: Trump administration thus far. Play it.

334
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:53,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, the American people voted for secure borders, safe cities,

335
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 6: and sensible spending, and that's what they've got. A tremendous

336
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 6: amountain has been accomplished in the first hundred days, as

337
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 6: everyone has said, it's more than any that's pretty compass.

338
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: To any administration before ever period.

339
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 6: So is this pretends very well for what happened for

340
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 6: the rest of the administration. I think this could be

341
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 6: the greatest administratious Audio.

342
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 2: Company you have been treated unfairly, but the vast majority

343
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 2: of people in this country really respect and appreciate you,

344
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 2: and this whole room can say that very strong.

345
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 3: Really been a tremendous help. You opened up a lot

346
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 3: of eyes as to what could be done, and we

347
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 3: just want to thank you very much.

348
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 4: And you know you're invited to stay as long as

349
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 4: you want. At some point, he wants to get back

350
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 4: home to his cars.

351
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 7: And.

352
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and his rockets and all the other good stuff. Clake,

353
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: I think it's important context because Elon is not a

354
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: guy who accepts less than the best. It's been one

355
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: hundred days. Trump's doing the things he said he would do.

356
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: There has been some excellent progress, but you can't slay

357
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: all the dragons the first time you pick up the sword. Yeah,

358
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: and again, I think the biggest story of Trump's hundred

359
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: days is that he trying. He is trying to fix

360
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: things that most politicians would not touch. And this is

361
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: important because it's what you should want politicians to do.

362
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 1: But most of them are so concerned with getting reelected

363
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: that they aren't willing to actually get that far out

364
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: in front of making substantial change. And you and I

365
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: have talked about this a lot, and I think it

366
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:31,479
Speaker 1: comes up frequently. What Elon has done is what we

367
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: should want incredibly talented people from a wide variety of

368
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 1: backgrounds to be willing to do. It's what Pete Hegseth did,

369
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: It's what Sean Duffy did. If you are having sex,

370
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: and this is my opinion, some of you may disagree,

371
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: but if you are fortunate enough to have success in

372
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 1: whatever your private endeavor is, Elon is the most successful

373
00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 1: capitalist maybe in the history of the world. Now to

374
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 1: reiterate that, because I think sometimes it gets lost, Elon

375
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: may well be the most successful capitalist in the history

376
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 1: of the world. Buck. I mean, certainly on a dollar value,

377
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: no one has been wealthier. Now you can argue, hey,

378
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: historically on inflation adjusted basis, John D. Rockefeller, some of

379
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 1: the people in the late nineteenth century, early twentieth century

380
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: may have had higher share of wealth, the Stanfords, the Vanderbilts,

381
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 1: the Rockefellers, the people who endowed so many different institutions.

382
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: But when you think about Tesla, SpaceX XAAI, Twitter, and

383
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: the Boring Company, among many others, I don't know that

384
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: there is anyone in the history of American capitalism or

385
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: world capitalism that has been more successful than Elon Is.

386
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: He had no reason buck other than his belief that

387
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: he had an incredible ability of talent to bring the

388
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: bear at the government to leave what he was doing

389
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: and making money into it. Look at Hegseth and people

390
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: are coming after Hegseth like crazy. He was making several

391
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 1: million dollars a year doing Fox and Friends' weekend hits

392
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: as a host and also then doing lots of different

393
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: hits on Fox News, and he gave that up to

394
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: make a couple hundred thousand dollars to be Defense Secretary.

395
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: Sean Duffy was making really good money hosting a show

396
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: on Fox Business. He gave that up to Gobee Transportation Secretary.

397
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: Donald Trump himself was rolling in billions of dollars, had

398
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: an easy lifestyle. Everyone loved him. He was one of

399
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: the most popular entrepreneurs and capitalists in the entire world.

400
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 1: And he decided that he didn't like the way America

401
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: was going and he was willing to put his hat

402
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: in the ring and take the slings and arrows from

403
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: other people. There are tons of those people, Lutnick Bessant,

404
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 1: people who were wildly successful outside of the government that

405
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: have decided to bring their talents to bear at the government.

406
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: I think it's probably the most underreported, underdiscussed aspect of

407
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 1: Trump cabinet two point zero. I'm not sure we'd ever

408
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: seen a more sick, successful gathering of people from outside

409
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: the government than what Trump has brought to bear so

410
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,919
Speaker 1: far in this group that was meeting right now in

411
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: the last couple of hours. Now, this cabinet will bring

412
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 1: more of the highlights to you as it continues to unfold.

413
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: But a couple of things that have come up. One

414
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: is you may have seen that the US economy had

415
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: a zero point three percent decline in GDP in the

416
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: first quarter. Now remember two Remember when two quarters of

417
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 1: negative of negative growth under Biden was a recession. But

418
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: then they said, well, is that really a recession? And

419
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 1: we all had to debate what the definition of a

420
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: recession was. They're going to seize on this. They're trying

421
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,400
Speaker 1: to seize on this to say that Trump his economy

422
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: is actually not going to be strong with the American people.

423
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: You all know, we all understand where this is going.

424
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: But Trump had this to say about the GDP number,

425
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,879
Speaker 1: and he's not mincing words. This is twenty four core GDP, and.

426
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 3: This is you know, you've probably said some numbers today

427
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 3: and have to shut up.

428
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 4: I say that's Biden, that's not Trump, because we came

429
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 4: in on January just a quarterly numbers, and we came

430
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 4: in and I was very against everything that Biden was

431
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 4: doing in terms of the economy destroying our country in

432
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 4: so many ways, not only at the border. The border

433
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 4: was more obvious, but we took over his mess in

434
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 4: so many different ways core GDP, removing distortions from imports, inventories,

435
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 4: and government spending was up plus three percent when you edit,

436
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 4: we had numbers that despite what we were handed, we

437
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 4: turned them around and we were getting them really turned around.

438
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 1: Now, I would just say I think it is it

439
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: is fair that Donald Trump is well, he's saying, look,

440
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 1: we came in in the middle of in the middle

441
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: of the quarter, which is true, or you know, early

442
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: mid to the quarter. And he's only been president for

443
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,919
Speaker 1: one hundred days. So we have to see how a

444
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: lot of this plays out. If Trump could snap it

445
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: because he's noted, I would say this glay because he

446
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: snapped his fingers in essence, and the border has been fixed,

447
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 1: not immigration. We still have all the deportations and illegal

448
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,479
Speaker 1: immigration issue, but the border issue, border security has been

449
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,359
Speaker 1: largely ninety five percent is pretty much fixed. I almost

450
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: feel like he's a victim of his own success because

451
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: he snaps his finger and fixes the border, he can't

452
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,160
Speaker 1: snap his fingers and fix the economy. And especially when

453
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,880
Speaker 1: you look at the dead and spending in these things

454
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 1: that have been built up over decades, it's gonna take

455
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: a little time. I do think that's fair context for

456
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,199
Speaker 1: this number that has just come out. I don't think

457
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 1: there's any doubt at all. And I just think overall

458
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: the battle out there as they are trying to attack Trump.

459
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: You know, we talked about the polling numbers yesterday, Buck

460
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: and I do think this is important. Is there anybody

461
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 1: within twenty points popularity wise in the Democrat Party that

462
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 1: is eligible to run for office with Trump? Because historically,

463
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: with Biden, we knew Trump was gonna run, so you

464
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: could always kind of compare with Biden, and then with

465
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: Kamala there was somebody that you could put up head

466
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 1: to head. I'm not even sure right now who you

467
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,880
Speaker 1: would point to in the Democrat Party and say this

468
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 1: person is even on an even remotely close to an

469
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: even playing field with Donald Trump's popularity, and so the

470
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 1: attack now is, oh, the things that Trump is doing

471
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: are unpopular, and I think they've had some success going

472
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: after Elon and I hope it doesn't discourage other highly

473
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: successful businessmen from coming into government, but unfortunately, I think

474
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: it probably will. And I think that's part of the intent.

475
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: But I don't know who you would even point to

476
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: and say, in these hundred days, this person has been

477
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: elevated as the foil for Trump. District court judges, but

478
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: there's hundreds of them. There isn't really any challenger of Trump,

479
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: even if his agenda is not wildly popular in the

480
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: marketplace right now? Does that make sense? Like I don't

481
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,360
Speaker 1: even see a conflict of ideas that's possible because Democrats,

482
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 1: it sort of feels, are drunkenly jumping from oh, we're

483
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: gonna go with a Breio Garcia, Oh we're gonna go

484
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: with the cost of eggs. Oh, the stock market is

485
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 1: not in an ideal position, and they just kind of

486
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 1: drunkenly move swerve from one argument to another, and there

487
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: is no uniting coalition of opposition behind it. Does that

488
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: make sense? Which I think is only fracturing even more,

489
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna get worse because I think

490
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: the economy is going to be getting better in the

491
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: months ahead. Now, China obviously looms large in all of

492
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: this with the economy, with the tariffs, and this is

493
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 1: really I think for in my view, i'd be interesting.

494
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: This would be an interesting question to asked Trump. I'd

495
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 1: love to hear me. Well, we'll talk to them. I

496
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: think we're gonna go see the big guy in June.

497
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 1: Clay and I've been talking about this. We were going

498
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 1: to see them and see him sooner and his team.

499
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 1: But you know, I've got a little human who is

500
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: very dependent on mom and dad to be around, well,

501
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,360
Speaker 1: particularly mom, let's be honest, but I try to help out.

502
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 1: So Clay has graciously agreed to let us push this

503
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: back to probably June. I think we'll do our time

504
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: with the President and some of his team, But I

505
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: would want to ask him. I think that in Trump's mind,

506
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: he has defeated the fake news media, which is which

507
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: I think is a totally fair assessment. I think he

508
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 1: has defeated the Democrat Party, right, he's not running again.

509
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 1: He won twice. He I know some of you're saying

510
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: he won three times, but he won twice officially. And

511
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: now I think he views his primary challenge as China.

512
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 1: I don't think he thinks the Democrats are who he

513
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: really has to focus on as much anymore. I think

514
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 1: he's really viewing China and the future of the China

515
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: US relationship and our ability to compete and continue to

516
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: be the dominant global force that we are is a

517
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 1: huge part of Trump's legacy, so he sees this as important.

518
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 1: I don't think he wants to have an unnecessarily bellakos

519
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,199
Speaker 1: relationship with China. He just wants us to be out

520
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 1: positioned and he wants things to be fair. He spoke

521
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: about this in this cabinet meeting. This is cut twenty five.

522
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 4: I know that China is doing very poorly right now.

523
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 3: I just saw some reports coming out, and I don't

524
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 3: want that to happen to China. I like the President

525
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 3: a lot, Presidentcy. I don't want it to happen.

526
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:15,719
Speaker 7: I was.

527
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 4: I was actually.

528
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: Sanden to hear it.

529
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 4: But they are getting absolutely hammered in China, and you know,

530
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,360
Speaker 4: they're sending boats, the biggest boats in the world carrying

531
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,479
Speaker 4: cargo like nobody's ever seen before. These are the biggest

532
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,400
Speaker 4: boats in the world, the biggest cargo ships in.

533
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 3: The world, and they're coming and they're turning around in

534
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 3: the Pacific Ocean. They're doing a big u turn and

535
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 3: going back because they don't want the goods because one

536
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 3: hundred and forty five percent ARRA. But at a certain point,

537
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 3: I hope we're going to make a deal with China.

538
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 3: We're talking to China, but their factories are closing all

539
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 3: over China because we're.

540
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: Not taking their product.

541
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 3: We don't want their product unless they're going to be

542
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 3: fair with us, and that includes intellectual property and other things.

543
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 4: There are a lot of things far beyond just by

544
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 4: seal Clay.

545
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 1: He said, Look, he doesn't want to get into a

546
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: bare knuckle brawl for the foreseeable future with China over trade.

547
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: All they have to do is change some behavior and

548
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: we can all be nice. As Trump would say, I

549
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: will be very surprised if by August this isn't all resolved.

550
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: You can put me down on the prediction market. By August.

551
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: I think we'll get through the summer. I think what

552
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: you will start to see in the next few days

553
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: is a lot of these new trade agreements will be

554
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: rolled out and they'll be better and they'll be more efficient,

555
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: and the market is gonna come to realize that this

556
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: is not the end of the world. And I think

557
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: by August China and the United States will have in

558
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: some way come to an agreement. That's my bet. I

559
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: think they want to get this thing resolved before we

560
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: get into the holiday season, because you need some finality

561
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 1: and certainty as you are getting retail set up for

562
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: the holiday season, which now buck by September, there Christmas

563
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: tree showing up in costcos you know, the Christmas creep

564
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 1: gets here sooner and sooner, and I think that will

565
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,959
Speaker 1: be a time when we will have some resolution. So

566
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: I don't think this thing's going to stretch on forever.

567
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 1: I think both sides are going to sit down at

568
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: the table. I think we'll get a better deal than

569
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 1: we have right now, and by the summer, I think

570
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 1: you will start to see the larger marketplace start to fire.

571
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 1: I also think our boy Jerome Powell, inflation is coming down.

572
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: He needs to cut rates, and there's now a prediction

573
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: of four rate cuts before the end. I think Goldman's

574
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: newest forecast is that four rate cuts, a total point

575
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 1: rate cut that will also start to juice the economy,

576
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: maybe free up the housing market or so many of

577
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: you out there are sitting on those two and a

578
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: half or three percent mortgages. Congrats, but it's been a

579
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: while now and the marketplace needs to kind of start

580
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: to work through the housing inventory. It's still frozen. A

581
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 1: point change and interest rates I think could start to

582
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: loosen that some. Many dedicated first responders and service members

583
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 1: like Austin Reese have paid a high price for the

584
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: safety freedom we enjoy. Austin served three deployments to a rock,

585
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: spending thirteen years with the Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit.

586
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: He learned to skydive on the job and became a

587
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: military freefall instructor. But in what was thought to be

588
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: a routine jump, something went terribly wrong. Austin hit the

589
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: ground at sixty five miles an hour. In that moment,

590
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: his life changed forever. Austin suffered broken bones and a

591
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed. Thanks to the

592
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: generosity of friends like you, Talenta Towers gave Austin a

593
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: specially adapted smart home to enable him to rebuild his

594
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: life after an unimaginable hardship. You help Austin restore his dignity, independence,

595
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: and hope for the future, and in doing so, you

596
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: honored his service in the most meaningful way. Help heroes

597
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: like Austin. Donate eleven dollars a month to Talenta Towers

598
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: at T two t dot org. That's t the number

599
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: two T dot org.

600
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 8: You don't know what's you don't know right, but you

601
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 8: could on the Sunday Hang with Clay and Buck podcast.

602
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: You never know what you're gonna say that AI brings

603
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 1: to bear. There's been a big debate about whether one

604
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: hundred men could defeat one gorilla. Somebody has put ten

605
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: thousand gorillas versus a million humans into AI and during

606
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: the commercial break this may not surprise any of you.

607
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: I have been sitting watching a battle between a million

608
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: humans and ten thousand gorillas to see what is likely

609
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: to happen. And I have not finished yet, but we

610
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: may get Buck's opinion on gorillas versus humans and who

611
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: would win the battle before all is said and done.

612
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: But we've got several other different stories that we are tracking.

613
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 1: What is going to happen with the immigration policies, of

614
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: the president. Has he stopped talking and with the cabinet yet?

615
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: I mean that was this was what like an hour

616
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 1: and a half Producer Ali that he talked to the

617
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: media and the cabinet met with the media nearly two

618
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: hours potentially. I know it was supposed to start at

619
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: eleven am Eastern. I think he'd started at like eleven

620
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 1: thirty or eleven forty and has been going for much

621
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 1: of the course of this program. We've been sharing some

622
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: of those elements with all of you, and as we

623
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 1: sit here on day one oh one, we're going to

624
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: be joined by Marsha Blackburn on the back half of

625
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: the program here at two thirty eastern. But I did

626
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 1: want to share this with you, Tim Walls, who I

627
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: believe has no political career left, and those of you

628
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: who are listening to us in Minnesota should be ashamed

629
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,479
Speaker 1: that this man is your governor. By the way, the

630
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: cabinet meeting and the press availability following it went for

631
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 1: two hours and two minutes. What I mean that is

632
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: a long time. We do a three hour daily show here,

633
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: so he nearly gave us a run for our money.

634
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: And who could do the longest show? I will say

635
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: whatever your thoughts thoughts are on Trump. We have never

636
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: had a president answer more questions, and I'm certain we've

637
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 1: never had a cabinet answer more questions than what the

638
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 1: Trump administration first one hundred days have been like. That

639
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: is Trump is telling you exactly what he's going to

640
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 1: do and why. Tim Walls, speaking at Harvard University, said

641
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: that he was I guess this was a panel this

642
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: week at Harvard said that he was on the ticket

643
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 1: because he could code talk to white football fans and

644
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 1: also guys who like to fix their truck so that

645
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 1: they were more comfortable voting for Kamala Harris Buck, this

646
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: is crazy town. I know a lot of you out

647
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: there listening to us right now are football fans. Some

648
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 1: of you probably also pretty adept at working on trucks.

649
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:02,359
Speaker 1: Are there any of you listening right now that think

650
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: that worked? I have said and I'll continue to say it.

651
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: Tim Walls is a lesbians idea of a man that

652
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: will appeal to men, and that perfectly personifies I think

653
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: the modern day Democrat Party. Did Tim Walls make you, guys,

654
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 1: football fans and car officionados out there, feel like you

655
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: could vote for Kamala and the Democrats more eight hundred

656
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,879
Speaker 1: and two eight two two eight a two because that

657
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: is what can you believe this is real? This is

658
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 1: the argument he's making. Well, I think it's true. But

659
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,359
Speaker 1: I also think that we saw that it. It's one

660
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,839
Speaker 1: thing for it not to work. I think it backfired

661
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: because I think that there was something condescending to the

662
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: very people that the Democrats were trying to at the

663
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: last minute fool in this way. Oh yeah, you know,

664
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 1: we we got we got people that wear car hard

665
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: and go to Walmart and shoot guns at birds and

666
00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: things too. Like it just doesn't it did. It didn't

667
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 1: seem authentic because it wasn't authentic because Tim Walls is

668
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 1: a communist and the whole thing was absurd. And so

669
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: I think that this it was worse than it didn't

670
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: work for them. I think it actually went against them,

671
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,280
Speaker 1: using Walls for that group in that way. I think

672
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: that is one hundred percent accurate. Here is Tim Wall

673
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 1: saying it. This is starting to get a lot of

674
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,920
Speaker 1: play for the reason that I believe Buck said, which

675
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 1: is this blew up in Democrats face, and I think

676
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 1: also reflects that they don't really have a strategy to

677
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 1: talk to normal guys, which was a huge part of

678
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four failure. Here is Walls explaining who

679
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 1: he was supposed to appeal to.

680
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 9: I was on the ticket, I would argue, because we

681
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 9: did a lot of amazing progressive things in Minnesota that

682
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 9: improved people's lives. But I also was on the ticket

683
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 9: quite honestly, you know, because I could code talk to

684
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 9: white guys watching football fixing their truck during that that

685
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 9: I could put them at ease. I was the permission

686
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 9: structure to say, look, you can do this and vote

687
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 9: for this. And you look across those swing states, with

688
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 9: exception of Minnesota, we didn't get enough.

689
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 1: Of those votes. I mean, they didn't even do that

690
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: well in Minnesota. I think the numbers reflected. I don't

691
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 1: have them in front of me right now, but that basically,

692
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four Minnesota was not much different than twenty

693
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: twenty Minnesota. Now, twenty sixteen Minnesota was even closer. Trump

694
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: came within I think fifty thousand votes or so in

695
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen of flipping Minnesota as well, and it was

696
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: relatively close and meaning five points or so if I

697
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: remember correctly. But Walls didn't even really add much to

698
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 1: the Minnesota support. You remember when Elizabeth Warren, she of

699
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: fake Native American heritage and tenured tenured professor of law

700
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: at Harvard University, was really making a go of it

701
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: for the presidency, or we knew she was going to,

702
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: and she did the whole Okay, I'm gonna get me

703
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 1: a beer, yes, and everybody was just like, you've never

704
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: said I'm gonna get me a beer before in your life.

705
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: In one Elizabeth Warren show it, she's like, oh, yeah,

706
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 1: I'm gonna imbibe some some prude hops and maybe have

707
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, a bud feizer. I have said for

708
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: some time JBN should be the lesson for most politicians.

709
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: Just simplify it. Give me an acronym. JBIN stands for

710
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: just be normal. The number of politicians that can't just

711
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: be normal is off the charts. So but I have

712
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: to ask, I think some of these people are not normal.

713
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: So this is why they come across as trying hard

714
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: to be normal, because they're actually huge weirdos. Yeah. I

715
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of truth to that, and there's

716
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: probably something for why politics draws that more because it's

717
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: also very strange to need to have constant affirmation from

718
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: random people that you don't know that they think you're

719
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 1: a good choice to do a job for them. I mean,

720
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 1: the whole idea of begging people to vote for you

721
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: is I think, just a strange way to make a

722
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: living personally. But it is interesting because what Walls is

723
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 1: saying is actually, I think why the Democrat Party is

724
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: in the brand is in the toilet right now. There's

725
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 1: lots of talk about, oh, what's Trump's approval rating and everything.

726
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: Trump's approval rating is probably nearly twenty points higher than

727
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: the national approval rating of any Democrat in America right now.

728
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 1: So if you say, okay, Trump's only got forty percent approval,

729
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 1: let's say it's a bad number, right forty percent of

730
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 1: American's approve of Trump right now? What Democrat has twenty

731
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: five percent approval? I don't mean in the Democrat Party,

732
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: I mean nationwide. I don't think there's anybody even within

733
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: single digits of Trump when it comes to approval. And

734
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: so there's a lot of people who are upset about

735
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 1: the trajectory of the nation right now. Things cost too much.

736
00:39:55,120 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 1: There's a lot of upheaval. But the last time that

737
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: a Democrat ran for President and one Men nineteen sixty four.

738
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: Let me repeat that most of the anti Trump sentiment

739
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:18,760
Speaker 1: in America is from women. Men are overwhelmingly on board

740
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: the Trump train. The last time the Democrat ticket won

741
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 1: the majority of male voters in America was nineteen sixty four.

742
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: That is, for many people a Holy Craft moment. So

743
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: this idea that the Democrat Party has suddenly begun to

744
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: struggle with men is false. What has actually happened is

745
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 1: they've just hit all time lows with men. They've been

746
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: struggling for sixty years, but now they are losing so

747
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 1: badly that even buck when they are trying to address

748
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: the issue, which is clearly paramount when it comes to

749
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 1: them winning elections, they end up with a guy like

750
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: Tim who, actually, I think you're right, even though he's

751
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: designed to bring in men who like to hunt and

752
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 1: men who like football. Remember they introduced him at the

753
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 1: DNC not as Governor Walls, but as coach Walls. He

754
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: wasn't even a head coach, but they tried to turn

755
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 1: him into some sort of Eric Taylor Friday Night Lights

756
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 1: figure to appeal to men. I mean, it landed flat.

757
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: I think they should have called them choreographer Walls because

758
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 1: those jazz hands and his fat figures. Sometimes you know,

759
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 1: weirit fingers high leg kicks. I don't know did he

760
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: try out. I know he needed a job soon because

761
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be able to be governor forever. Could

762
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 1: he be a rocket? I think if you put him

763
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 1: on the stage, he's got a good leg kick and

764
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 1: the rockets. I mean, that is not that is not

765
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,879
Speaker 1: a light amount of work when you do those leg

766
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 1: kicks one after the other. I think, to be fair

767
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: to Tim Walls, I think he could leg kick like

768
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: a lot of women can leg kick, and maybe that

769
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: has appeal. I'll tell you one thing I think is interesting.

770
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: I've seen some of these stores worries out there, and

771
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: I've seen the re emergence of some some leftists from

772
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 1: the in media from the Obama era, and these efforts

773
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 1: to say, you know, well, this is the new Is

774
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 1: this the new masculine face of the Democrat party? You know,

775
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 1: is this the new? Like the badass bro and all

776
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: of these people they put forward. I'm like, no, no,

777
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: And then you think to yourself, this is amazing. I mean,

778
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 1: there are a lot of Democrats out there, a lot

779
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: of Democrats in the media. This is the best they've

780
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,320
Speaker 1: got to just appeal the normal guys who like guy things.

781
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: The people they're putting forward do not do not answer

782
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 1: the mail, so to speak. It does not get it done. No,

783
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 1: And look, I mean it wasn't just Tim Walls that

784
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 1: she was considering. Remember it was Shapiro, who I think

785
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: you've rightly said, has the unfortunate for Democrats these days religion. Right.

786
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 1: I don't think they can put a Jewish guy on

787
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: the ticket, even if he's in the most important state,

788
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 1: and that is a huge indictment of the It would

789
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 1: cost them. It would cost the Michigan. I think they

790
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,359
Speaker 1: know that. I mean I think that that's Look, look

791
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 1: what just happened in his last election. Democrats had problems

792
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 1: in Michigan in the first place. Uh, but I think

793
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 1: it would cost the Michigan to have a Democrat as

794
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: the top of the ticket, no question about it. And

795
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: then you've got JB. Pritzker, who we said has got

796
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:17,799
Speaker 1: the same issue that Frankly Chris Christie had, which is

797
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: you're not gonna elect I don't think America is going

798
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 1: to elect a four hundred pound dude. I'm sorry, I mean,

799
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: maybe if he was two sixty instead of four hundred,

800
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: maybe people change their minds. He's also a constant, you know,

801
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 1: because I'm sympathetic to this. Then you know, I've talked

802
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 1: about how I've been getting I've gotten back into like

803
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 1: reasonable shape now and I'm still going and going trying

804
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,719
Speaker 1: to get better shape all the time. The guy's a

805
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: billionaire like I. You know, if you gain thirty or

806
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:46,759
Speaker 1: forty pounds because you were working double shifts and you're

807
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: trying to provide for your family and you know, you're

808
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 1: just you're ereating on down hamburgers and French fries because

809
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,279
Speaker 1: you're trying to feel save money and eat fast. Yep,

810
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:59,480
Speaker 1: totally sympathetic, no judgments. The society that we live in

811
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,240
Speaker 1: Priority ties is more hours at the desk, less time

812
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 1: out there. It's easier to get fast, crappy food, and

813
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,760
Speaker 1: it has you know all that. So I'm this dude's

814
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 1: a billionaire. You're a billionaire in the era of Jay,

815
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,760
Speaker 1: you know, get a private chef, get on some GLP ones.

816
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy is morbidly obese. Like again, it's

817
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 1: not about that shaming. It's about you couldn't responsibly elect

818
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,799
Speaker 1: this guy to be president because his health is such

819
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 1: obviously an issue you couldn't protect. You couldn't think this

820
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 1: guy could serve eight years without there being huge problems.

821
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,240
Speaker 1: And also he's got the same problem in the Gavin

822
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: Newsom does, which is he's actually been an awful governor.

823
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 1: Everybody is leaving Illinois, Everybody is leaving California. Chicago's a

824
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 1: great place to live. The mayor's got a six percent

825
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:49,439
Speaker 1: approval rating because Democrats have done a really poor job

826
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: of governing in places like Illinois, in California, and so

827
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: Andy Basheer, we got a huge audience in Kentucky. I'm

828
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: sorry that guy has the woest masculinity reading on the planet.

829
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: I think Kentucky should be embarrassed who have elected him twice.

830
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: His daddy was the governor's the reason he got elected.

831
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 1: He did awful with COVID, he shut down churches, he

832
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: didn't let kids go to school and play sports. Like

833
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 1: the fact that Kentucky elected this guy twice is I

834
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:23,359
Speaker 1: think an incredible embarrassment for this thing. Look look at

835
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 1: also some of the mandatory beliefs that if you're going

836
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,720
Speaker 1: to be a Democrat at the national level in good

837
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: standing with the base and with the Democrat machine. You

838
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: have to you have to do what say that guy

839
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 1: John Oliver did on HBO regily, He's like, is there

840
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 1: really evidence that men are better at sports than women?

841
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 1: He's like, yes, you little moron. Yeah, of course, of

842
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: course there's it's called all of human history. We're all

843
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 1: very but you have to say these things that no

844
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:58,799
Speaker 1: normal guy will say, No normal red blooded American man

845
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 1: is like, you know, I'm a feminist and I think

846
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: that you know, the transagender for kids is a good idea. Like,

847
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,359
Speaker 1: so this is there's a bit of self selection that's

848
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 1: gone on here, right, it was, it was different twenty

849
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: years ago. This has been a shift in the culture,

850
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 1: and a real one. And I know it's topic of

851
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 1: Clay's books. So it's a good time, good time for

852
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 1: somebody to lay down the law on this stuff. You know,

853
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 1: there's a new phone scam cyber hackers are using to

854
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,479
Speaker 1: get your online identity and it's working far too well.

855
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,359

00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: tolls and if you don't pay quickly, Actually, I just

857
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,560

859
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: things pop. And you know also the misplaced the quote

Speaker 1: if you don't pay this toll. Here's the length they're doing.

862
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 1: The scammers are sophisticated. Okay, this isn't Oh I'm I'm

863
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 1: a prince from some country that doesn't exist. Give me

864
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 1: ten million dollars. That was the old scam. The new

00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,360
Speaker 8: great state of Tennessee, where I reside.

887
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 1: I last saw her for a fundraiser I believe for

888
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 1: the Nashville Davidson County Republican Party. That was a fun event.

889
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 1: Senator Blackburn, I know you're focused on a lot of things,

890
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 1: but let's start off right here. It's day one oh one.

891
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 1: How would you rate the first one hundred days of Trump?

892
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,360
Speaker 1: And where is the Senate when it comes to getting

893
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 1: this big budd big beautiful bill done? What can you

894
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 1: tell us about it all?

895
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 7: Well? For President Trump's first hundred days, promise is made,

896
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 7: promises kept, and he has done it in grand fashion

897
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:48,720
Speaker 7: the way he is moving forward, securing the border, getting

898
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 7: inflation down, making certain he's restoring our standing in the world,

899
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 7: and something very important to me, and I know you

900
00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 7: also is getting men out of when than sports a man.

901
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,400
Speaker 7: So I think you've had a very good one hundred days.

902
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 7: And it is up to the House in the Senate

903
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:13,879
Speaker 7: to make certain that we pass this bill, the Reconciliation Bill,

904
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 7: that we make permanent the tax cuts from twenty seventeen.

905
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 7: And you know, the important thing to remember on that

906
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:28,719
Speaker 7: is that if we cannot get this passed, then the

907
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 7: American people will have the largest tax height in history.

908
00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 7: It will be a four trillion dollar increase in their taxes.

909
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:44,399
Speaker 7: So it is imperative, absolutely imperative that we get this

910
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 7: job done.

911
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: Center Blackburn, thanks for being here with us. I know

912
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,000
Speaker 1: after you talked to us here, you're going to meet

913
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:55,920
Speaker 1: the White House invest in America event. What's going on

914
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 1: with that. We know what Trump has been up to

915
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: policy wise up to this point. Talk about the one

916
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:04,439
Speaker 1: hundred day, the one hundred days in yesterday and looking

917
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 1: at what has been a phenomenal start for his second term.

918
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,000
Speaker 1: But what can you tell us about investing in America

919
00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 1: and some of the plans, deals, programs, et cetera that

920
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: Trump's trying to get accomplished.

921
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:21,239
Speaker 7: Yes, what we know is that there has been five

922
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:27,280
Speaker 7: trillion dollars of investment committed in the US since President

923
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 7: Trump took office. Now this is a combination of direct

924
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 7: foreign investment and also American private investment. Tennessee has been

925
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:41,759
Speaker 7: the recipient of some of this. We have We've had

926
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 7: thirty companies and twelve hundred jobs and one point two

927
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:52,239
Speaker 7: billion dollars already invested in Tennessee since President Trump was

928
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 7: elected in November. And this is twelve hundred jobs. Now,

929
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 7: part of that is private, part of that this direct

930
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 7: foreign investment in our state. But it proves the point

931
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 7: that people want to invest in America. They know that

932
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 7: they want access to our market. They know that if

933
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:15,600
Speaker 7: they manufacture here, they're not going to pay the tariffs.

934
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:20,480
Speaker 7: So whether it's Schneider Electric or Abb Electronics or Charms

935
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 7: Candy Company, they all are expanding and creating jobs in Tennessee.

936
00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: AI is a rapidly advancing tech revolution that I think

937
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,280
Speaker 1: many people are still getting their hands kind of wrapped

938
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 1: around what the impact is going to be. I have

939
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,360
Speaker 1: read about what one of the things that you have

940
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 1: written a letter to Facebook slash Meta about there's lots

941
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: of AI now and I was kind of stunned by

942
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: this because I barely I'm gonna be honest with y'all,

943
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 1: I barely used AI. But these chatbots, evidently, while engaging

944
00:51:56,239 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 1: with miners who might be using them, are engaged sometimes

945
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 1: in sexually explicit related interactions. For people out there who

946
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,040
Speaker 1: don't know about this, I think this is important for

947
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:11,960
Speaker 1: parents and grandparents to know. What is that investigation shown?

948
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,799
Speaker 7: Oh my goodness, this is one of the most disgusting

949
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:20,960
Speaker 7: and horrifying things that has come about. Meta has created

950
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 7: this chat box, and what the investigation this was reported

951
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:32,239
Speaker 7: in the Wall Street Journal is it engages in sexually

952
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:40,919
Speaker 7: explicit conversation with individuals and miners use this. There are

953
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 7: no safeguards. This is why we need to pass that

954
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:48,400
Speaker 7: Kids Online Safety Act. There are no safeguards and the

955
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 7: explicit nature of this is something that is just horrifying.

956
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 7: I have talked to moms of teenagers that cannot even

957
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:04,360
Speaker 7: believe that Matta knows this is a problem. They know

958
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:07,959
Speaker 7: how it is being used, and they will not take

959
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 7: it offline, so it is appearing on WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat,

960
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 7: and this is the kind of thing that needs to

961
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:23,960
Speaker 7: be bought. You know, you can't take a child into

962
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 7: a pornographic show or an X rated movie, or take

963
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:32,439
Speaker 7: them to a liquor store strip club, but they're exposed

964
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:35,799
Speaker 7: to this in the virtual space twenty four hours a day,

965
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,799
Speaker 7: seven days a week, and the fact that this is

966
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,919
Speaker 7: happening is absolutely horrifying.

967
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 1: Senator Blackburn, are you sensing any pushback from your Senate

968
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 1: Democrat colleagues in terms of dealing with this problem. There

969
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:54,560
Speaker 1: are some areas where I think we would all like

970
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,400
Speaker 1: to believe, we'd like to believe at least I know

971
00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,720
Speaker 1: it's not perfect. That there is a bypart and desire

972
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,839
Speaker 1: still that exists, and it's protecting children. I think would

973
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 1: be high on that list. Is this something you think

974
00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 1: that legislation could get done in a bipartisan way to

975
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 1: protect the kids or what's.

976
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:15,920
Speaker 7: The whole The Kids Online Safety Act passed through the

977
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:20,960
Speaker 7: Senate on a ninety one to three vote yes, and

978
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 7: it failed in the House. You had Speaker Johnson and

979
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 7: Leadersclife who did not bring the bill forward. At the

980
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 7: end of the last Congress, Senator Blomenthall and I are

981
00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:38,920
Speaker 7: refiling the bill in the next week, and we are

982
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,200
Speaker 7: going to push it through in the Senate again and

983
00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:46,279
Speaker 7: give our friends over in the House opportunity to join us,

984
00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:49,760
Speaker 7: so we can get this to President's Trump President Trump's

985
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:53,240
Speaker 7: desk and put a duty of care on the social

986
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 7: media platforms so that you are able to block them

987
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,879
Speaker 7: and that parents and kids have a toolbox and can

988
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 7: disable some of these algorithms so that kids are not

989
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 7: exposed to these things in the virtual space.

990
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 1: Well, why is Facebook? I mean, this clearly is not

991
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 1: a good you know, it is not a good area.

992
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:20,360
Speaker 1: You would think for them to be in opposition. You know, parents,

993
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:23,880
Speaker 1: You've got bipartisan Senate vote for this, she said, you know,

994
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 1: over ninety votes. Going, what are they just saying it's

995
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 1: technologically difficult for them to handle this problem? Or what

996
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 1: are the social media companies, specifically Facebook saying?

997
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:36,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, But what they do is they use our children

998
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:41,520
Speaker 7: as a profit center because their value is based off

999
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:47,319
Speaker 7: the number of eyeballs that they can connect with every

1000
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:51,400
Speaker 7: day and the amount of time that they can hold

1001
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:56,359
Speaker 7: those eyeballs. So the longer they can keep a kid

1002
00:55:56,480 --> 00:56:02,399
Speaker 7: scrolling or listening or looking the better off they are

1003
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:06,280
Speaker 7: as far as their profit goes. You know, Meta even

1004
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 7: assigned a dollar value to each kid that is on

1005
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:13,280
Speaker 7: their site. I think the dollar value was two hundred

1006
00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:17,120
Speaker 7: and forty seven dollars and that that's what the profit

1007
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:22,279
Speaker 7: margin is on that kid for a year. And it

1008
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,719
Speaker 7: is disgusting the way they have treated our children, what

1009
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:29,640
Speaker 7: they are exposing them to, this chat box that they

1010
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 7: have created is over the top. There are parents that

1011
00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 7: are saying this has got to be taken down. And

1012
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:41,200
Speaker 7: Senator blumensaal and I wrote Mark Zuckerberg. We have not

1013
00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 7: heard one word back from him. There is no one

1014
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:48,200
Speaker 7: from Metta that has reached out to say, hey, we

1015
00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:50,000
Speaker 7: get it, We're taking this down.

1016
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: Senator Blibern, I know you're going to be at the

1017
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: White House here in a little bit for a Trump address.

1018
00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:00,720
Speaker 1: You have known Trump for a long time now, basically

1019
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 1: his entire political career. You were there for the first

1020
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:05,879
Speaker 1: term of Trump, and now you're there for Trump two

1021
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:09,439
Speaker 1: point h y How is he different, if at all,

1022
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:12,720
Speaker 1: so far as you can tell through the first hundred days.

1023
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,799
Speaker 1: What is different about Trump two point zero compared to

1024
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 1: Trump one point zero?

1025
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 7: He is so focused on getting things done. And you know,

1026
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 7: as I say, promises made, promises kept are the way

1027
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 7: to sum up his first one hundred days and play.

1028
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 7: When you look at the intentionality that he approaches every

1029
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:40,640
Speaker 7: single day with, it is really quite remarkable. He came

1030
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,640
Speaker 7: into office knowing what he was going to do. He

1031
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:47,400
Speaker 7: started in on those executive orders. He said, we're going

1032
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:51,040
Speaker 7: to get this border secure, We're going to get inflation down,

1033
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:55,960
Speaker 7: and he has done it. And people that I am

1034
00:57:56,040 --> 00:58:00,240
Speaker 7: talking with every single day are so grateful to have

1035
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 7: a president committed to action on behalf of the American people.

1036
00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 7: And even when you look at tariffs and there's all

1037
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 7: this talk around tears, people are very patient. They say,

1038
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:15,040
Speaker 7: we do want to get the cost of living down.

1039
00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,320
Speaker 7: We want to get it down long term. We do

1040
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:20,120
Speaker 7: want to get the cost of government down. We want

1041
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:22,280
Speaker 7: to get it down long term so that our kids

1042
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 7: and grandkids can experience the American dream. We want to

1043
00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 7: make certain that government is smaller and more manageable, and

1044
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 7: that power and authority and money is sent back to

1045
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:38,360
Speaker 7: the state. And that is what Donald Trump is doing.

1046
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 7: Every single day. He is focused on what is happening

1047
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:47,840
Speaker 7: on main street in our communities, he is focused on

1048
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 7: prosperity for all Americans, and that is why I think

1049
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:54,680
Speaker 7: it's so appropriate that he uses the phrase the Golden

1050
00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 7: age of America.

1051
00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,760
