And I think he's getting at something bigger 100 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: with the Secret Service, which is they've been cutting their 101 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: rules for a long time for small and big reasons, 102 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: and none of them improve the security of their detailers. 103 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: And I think that's something that will go down in history. 104 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: Has a pretty famous moment. It's been played over and 105 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: over today and I can see why. Really really remarkable. Well, 106 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: how about that, so another great moment ante a little 107 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: bit more peaceful Elon Musk with his son on his 108 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: shoulders walking through the Capitol. I guess it was taking 109 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: your son to work day in the Capitol, and he 110 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: brought his son there and did a little bit of 111 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: Doge conversation talking about gutting the fish. Big plans to 112 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: cut government in a big way so that we get 113 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: a more responsive, more efficient, and more customer friendly government. 114 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: That was a big moment, a little bit less contentious 115 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: at that particular event today. Earlier today, Amanda had a 116 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: great chance to talk to Congressman Tom Tiffany, who was 117 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: attending that briefing with Elon Musk. He's been a big 118 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: champion guiding government for a long time, has some big ideas. 119 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 2: We had a chance to talk to him. 120 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: I thought we play that right now, right, folks, joining 121 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: us now Congressman Tom Tiffany from the great state of Wisconsin, 122 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: a man who has been really determined to shrink the 123 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: size of government. His moment may be coming at the 124 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: start of the new year. Congressman, great to have you 125 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: on the show again. 126 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 10: Good to join you, John. 127 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: Big moment today Elon Musker is a beautiful picture of 128 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: his son on his shoulder coming down the Capitol steps. 129 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: But Ramaswami Musk, they're meeting with lawmakers. Very important moment. 130 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: There's some real serious discussion about how to shrink this 131 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: government quickly. 132 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 10: Right, Yeah, no doubt about it. 133 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 11: I'm really hopeful that Doje may be that impetus to 134 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 11: get control of spending, because we certainly haven't shown the 135 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 11: will in Congress to be able to get it done. 136 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 10: I'm hoping this could be the thing that gives it. 137 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 11: A boost, and especially I think from the PR side, John, 138 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 11: they could be really helpful in identifying the enormous waste 139 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 11: that goes on with federal taxpayer dollars. 140 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems like a once in a generation opportunity 141 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: to make a course correction of epic portions. There is 142 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: always the process in Washington that usually is the thing 143 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: that gets in the way. What's interesting about having two 144 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: CEOs like Ramaswami and Musk is there there are oi driven, 145 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: They're not worried about the process, worried about the bottom line. 146 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: How much do you think that changes the conversation in 147 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: a city that normally obsesses over process. 148 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's really good. 149 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 11: I mean, as I just said there, it's probably going 150 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 11: to take an outside ipnetism in order, an outside force 151 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 11: to be able to move on this, because we've seen 152 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 11: over the last couple I mean, we haven't passed a 153 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 11: legitimate budget out here in Washington, d C. In well 154 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 11: over a decade. So it's going to take an external factor. 155 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 11: I'm hoping this is it that will help us be 156 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 11: able to get control of spending and the greatest thing 157 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 11: they can do is the public relations stuff. 158 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 10: I hope they tour the country. I hope they use X. 159 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 11: I hope they use every means in their arsenal in 160 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 11: terms of public relations to expose this terrible, wasteful spending 161 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 11: that's going on. 162 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 10: Because they're going to be able to identify things big 163 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 10: and small and. 164 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 11: Perhaps even force lawmakers to defend some of the ridiculous 165 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 11: that ridiculousness that's going on there. 166 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 10: I think that's the best thing. 167 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: It's sunshine, right, Yeah, And that's always been the best 168 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: antiseptic to problems in Washington. Is when you get that 169 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: sunlight onto something, it's going to be fascinating to see. 170 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: There's a little business that has to get taken care 171 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: of before the new Congress takes over. A temporary spending 172 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 1: bill of some sort has to keep the government running. 173 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: What do you expect there? 174 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like there'll be a lot of fights 175 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: to like, just get rid of it and then start 176 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: the real work on January third. Is that a good 177 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: read of where a lot of Republicans' minds are right now. 178 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 10: Yeah. 179 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 11: Unfortunately, I'm not optimistic about this process. I mean, if 180 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 11: it were coming from me, we pass the CR, so 181 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 11: you basically have triage as we head into the next administration, 182 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 11: stop the bleeding, and then let the next administration really 183 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 11: craft a budget and fiscal priorities that reflect the election 184 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 11: on November fifth of what the American people really want 185 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 11: to see. 186 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 2: And so. 187 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 11: For me, I think if we just did a CR 188 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 11: to kick it off for a while, no additional spending 189 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 11: anything like that, I'd be perfectly fine with that and 190 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 11: let the next administration the next Congress make these decisions. 191 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 2: Your colleagues are more united. 192 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: I think I have a greater sense of wanting to 193 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: move quickly than I've seen in a long time. There's 194 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: just that sense of that there's a sandclock of opportunity ticking. 195 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: Is there just a different feel to the caucus now 196 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: than maybe two years ago when you were coming into power? 197 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 10: Oh without a dollar? Tell me. 198 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 11: I mean I came in May of twenty twenty and 199 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 11: we had Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and then they had unified 200 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 11: government after twenty twenty and then twenty twenty. 201 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 10: Two you still had divided government. 202 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 11: There is real optimism to be able to get some 203 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 11: stuff done. And there's a couple of things that I'm 204 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 11: encouraged by one is I'm hearing from more members about 205 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 11: the fiscal accountability side of it. That's a good thing 206 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 11: that they're actually talking about that. And man, this may 207 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 11: be a once in a generation opportunity, as you mentioned, 208 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 11: to be able to actually do something about this overspending 209 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 11: that's going on in Washington, d C. And start to 210 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 11: get responsible. And by the way, it doesn't have to 211 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 11: be just the discretionary spending. We can get at some 212 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 11: of the mandatory spending also, I mean on food staff, 213 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 11: some of those things that's mandatory spending. You know, I 214 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 11: think some of the benefits that are paid in regards 215 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 11: to the work requirements. I mean some of that is 216 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 11: under the heading of mandatory spending. We can deal with 217 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 11: some of that too. So I'm really encouraged to hear that, 218 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 11: and also by the regulatory state. 219 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 10: We got to deal with it because there. 220 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 11: May be more bang for the buck in terms of 221 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 11: drawing our economy of making regulatory changes, get the impediments 222 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 11: out of the way, let those job. 223 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 10: Creators and entrepreneurs really be able to go to work. 224 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 11: There's probably more bang for the buck of there than 225 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 11: even the deficit reduction stuff. 226 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, and having a couple of business men along your 227 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: side up identify that it's going to be really fun 228 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: to watch. You did an extraordinary job and a hearing 229 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: the other day with the Citizenship Director. I think I 230 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: don't know what I was more shocked about the lack 231 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: of answers that they had for really important questions, or 232 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: the fact that they're proud that they unleashed fourteen million 233 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: illegal aliens onto this country. But your takeaways. You asked 234 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: some really profound questions. There were some great things about 235 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: China that you were digging into. But what was your 236 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: big takeaway from the Citizenship Director's testimony yesterday? 237 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 11: She doesn't know what's going on in our agency. I mean, 238 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 11: that's the number one takeaway. You could see she was 239 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 11: just fearful of doing this hearing and wanted to not 240 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 11: be in that chair because they know it's been wrong 241 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 11: what they've done. I've asked two of these people now. 242 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 11: I asked but Sarah the same question. A couple of 243 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 11: weeks ago. I asked the Vice President Harris question, would 244 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 11: you do anything different over the last four years? And 245 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 11: they're basically saying no, we wouldn't do anything different. 246 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 10: You've had these ideologues that. 247 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 11: Have been in charge of immigration in all its different forms, 248 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 11: whether it's it's refugees, immigration, parole, all the stuff that 249 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 11: goes on, and they are glad that they have done 250 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 11: this to the United States of America. And man, we 251 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 11: got to put the genie back in the bottle and 252 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 11: we have got to deal with this because these people 253 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 11: they are it is part of the transformation of America. 254 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 11: They were attempting to do and they firmly believe in it. 255 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you did a lot to call attention to 256 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 1: the national security components of this way. And one of 257 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: the lines of question that caught my attention where with 258 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: Chinese immigrants and their ability to get into the Northern 259 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 1: Marianas Islands without having to go through a normal visa 260 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: application process. Are you concerned that China's maybe using that 261 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 1: as a spy post or an influence post aimed at 262 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 1: the United States. 263 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's right. 264 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 11: So I think the law was created in two thousand 265 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 11: and nine where Chinese that including if they have communist ties, 266 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 11: that they can just come to the Northern Mariana Islands, 267 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 11: and they many Chinese have been using it. They've been 268 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 11: doing that without a visa and they've been coming in 269 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 11: and having children there, and we call it birth tourism. 270 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 10: There are more children being born to Chinese nationals than 271 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 10: there is. 272 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 11: Too native people of the Marianas, and that tells you 273 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 11: everything you need to know that they want their kids 274 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 11: to be able to have this American citizenship. I think 275 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 11: the director didn't even know what the heck is going 276 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 11: on there, but it's one of those little loopholes that 277 00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 11: could be become something far bigger in the future. And 278 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 11: it certainly has national security implications with communist. 279 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: China involved, and you're one of the few lawmakers that 280 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: have really zeroed into it. I found that line of 281 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 1: questions so fascinating, and I think you educated a lot 282 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: of your fellow colleagues in the Congress, as well as 283 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: the director, who you're right, didn't see that any idea 284 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: that this was going on. Pretty remarkable moment, Great oversight work, sir. 285 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: It's always an honored avy on the show. We learned 286 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: so much. I know the people in Wisconsin very proud 287 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: to count you among their representative. 288 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us today as always, John, Thank you. 289 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: Wow, what a great interview to think about that Chinese citizenship, 290 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: getting American Chinese citizen getting American citizenship here by just going. 291 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 2: To the Marianas Islands. Really interesting dynamics. A little breaking 292 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 2: news before we go to the break. 293 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: Just a moment ago, United State's House of Representatives voted 294 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: against releasing the Matt Gates ethics report at least for now, 295 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: though maybe another vote later in the month. But right 296 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: now that love report will not see the lot of 297 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: to day. We're going to take a qui commercial break. 298 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: When we come back. Chairman Bary Loudimilk, the man who 299 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: found those emails with Capitol Police and all the favoritism 300 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: shown to the officer who shot asking about He's gonna 301 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: tell us all about it right after these messages. Welcome 302 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: back to America. If you're sitting here now thinking I 303 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: know so much more about January sixth, and it's so 304 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: different than when I was originally told, our next guest 305 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: is probably the reason you feel that way. He's the 306 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: chairman of the House Administration's Oversight sub Commitee and the 307 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: man who relentlessly pursued facts and truth, not fake narrative, 308 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: so we can learn more about that January sixth tragedy. 309 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: Joining us right now, Congress and Berrylotta from the great 310 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: State of Georgia. Sir, great to have you on the show. 311 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 7: Joh It's always good to be with the wisest team in. 312 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 5: The news. 313 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 7: So we appreciate the fine coverage you've given for this 314 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 7: when a lot of other news outlets wouldn't touch it. 315 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, they've been afraid to. 316 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: I've even tried to work with some news that you're 317 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: just afraid to touch this. But so there's a new development, 318 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: these incredible emails at your staff and you are uncovered 319 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: showing extraordinary political pressure from House Democrats meddling in the 320 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: Capitol Police process, trying to get favoritism and money and 321 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: other benefits to Michael Bird, that now captain then lieutenant 322 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: who shot Ashley Babbott. When you look at what happened, 323 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: what concerns you. 324 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 7: Most, Well, it's the lack of transparency and the political 325 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 7: meddling that was going on. Obviously it had been in 326 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 7: place for quite a while, and I have other concerns 327 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 7: as well as how long has this been going on, 328 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 7: and how just is the Capitol Police when it comes 329 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 7: to managing and policing their own force, and how much 330 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 7: political influence has happened over the last several decades and 331 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 7: I'm afraid that from what we've seen so far that 332 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 7: it was pretty significant. But it never should be that way. 333 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 7: It should be that the Capitol Police work with the 334 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 7: we're sight of Congress, but their decisions are based on 335 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 7: based on the safety and the security of this this 336 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 7: capital and those that work and visit here, not some 337 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 7: political agenda. 338 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, so important, mister Chairman. 339 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 4: If I could, I want to ask kind of a 340 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 4: late question, because you know, I read John's reporting on this, 341 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 4: and you're you know everything that you have produced through 342 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 4: your investigations. Is it considered appropriate or normal for a 343 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 4: congressional delegation Democrat, Republican or otherwise to lobby on, behalf of, 344 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 4: or dictate to aka strong arm the Capitol Police officials 345 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 4: into treating one of their own officers a certain way. 346 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 5: No, it is. 347 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 7: It is highly inappropriate, but I can't say that it 348 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 7: hasn't happened for a while, and especially in this instance 349 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 7: to where you have a u an officer who and 350 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 7: I'm not judging whether he was right or wrong in 351 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 7: the action that he took, but when the clear message 352 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 7: was sent to take care of this person, and uh, 353 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 7: Michael Byrd receives about thirty six thousand dollars bonus retention 354 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 7: bonus after this incident, when other officers who were on 355 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 7: the front line of the battles it took place on 356 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 7: January sixth received less than ten thousand. Initially, I think 357 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 7: they received about two thousand, and then all the other 358 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 7: benefits that he received at the direction of Democrat leadership 359 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 7: have the entire police force scratching their heads. And it 360 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 7: isn't that he was just being protected. Because of what 361 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 7: he did that day. Everyone wanted to interview him, and 362 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 7: the Capitol Police said, we recommend you don't go to 363 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 7: the media. But yet, on his own accord, he decided 364 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 7: to go to CNN and that's when all the security 365 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 7: threats against him began. Once he voluntarily identified himself to 366 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 7: the American people as the one who actually pulled the 367 00:18:55,480 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 7: trigger on Ashley BABBITTT and so then it required additional security. 368 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 7: He just kept going and kept going, and kept going, 369 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 7: even to the point where the new chief came in 370 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 7: and said, look, you've got to come back to work. 371 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 7: You know, he's getting special security details. He's living at 372 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 7: Andrews Air Force Base, not even living in his home. 373 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 7: He's asking four weapons to protect himself. I mean, it 374 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 7: was the special treatment that he received was way far 375 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 7: and above those of the officers who defended the capital 376 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 7: against some of the violent protesters. 377 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is amazing. 378 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 1: And there are moments where he's responding directly to the 379 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: police or to members of Congress, and he seems to 380 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: be unhappy with all that he's been given. They raised 381 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: them one hundred and sixty thousand dollars on a gofund me. 382 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: They gave him a thirty six to thirty seven thousand 383 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: dollars bonus, the security upgrades at his home. 384 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 2: Were you struck at all by Michael Byrd's. 385 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: Interactions as all of this sort of extra benefits of 386 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: being bestowed on him. 387 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 7: Yeah, he was demanding. I mean, he was in the 388 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 7: driver's seat on all this. And the only reason that someone, 389 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 7: in my opinion and through my investigation, only reason someone 390 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 7: would be that demanding of their superiors is if they 391 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 7: knew that they had the politicians had their back and 392 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 7: that and I believe he was well aware that Democrat 393 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 7: leadership had said take care of him no matter what 394 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 7: he needs, and he was milking that to the best 395 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 7: he could. Now I'm not doubting that he needed some 396 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,160 Speaker 7: additional security, but he brought it on to himself by 397 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 7: going on CNN and being public, but then to demand 398 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 7: even money from the Memorial Fund, which was set aside 399 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 7: to assist officers who their families who were injured or 400 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 7: killed him in the. 401 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 5: Line of duty. 402 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 7: He was wanting money out of the memorial fund, and 403 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 7: then he even said he'll go to members of Congress 404 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 7: to get funds. It was highly irregular and inappropriate, unethical 405 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 7: the actions that he took following this, again, which he 406 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 7: brought on to himself because he wanted his moment in 407 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 7: the sun, his moment of popularity by going on CNN. 408 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 4: Mister chairman, you mentioned his request or demand for weapons 409 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 4: that I suppose are outside of the norm for him. 410 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 4: This is a guy who has had issues with his 411 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 4: own service weapon in the past, So why would he 412 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 4: feel that he stands on any ground where he can 413 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 4: make those demands. 414 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 7: Because when there is a systemic problem to where people 415 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 7: who do bad things are never punished for the things 416 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 7: that they do, they feel empowered. And when you look 417 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 7: at his infractions in the past where he recklessly just 418 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 7: charged his weapon in his neighborhood at home, it was 419 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 7: investigated by the civil authorities in that area where he 420 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 7: shot into a car that he claimed was trying to 421 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 7: run over him, but all the bullets were in the back, 422 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 7: shot into his neighbor's house, and was never fully held accountable. 423 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 5: He should have been fired for that incident. 424 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 7: When he assaulted a security guard at a highigh school 425 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 7: football game, he should have. 426 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 5: Been fired for that instant. 427 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 7: When he left his weapon in a public bathroom here 428 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 7: at the Capitol Visitor Center, he should have been fired 429 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 7: for that infraction, but he was not, and in some 430 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 7: cases given a light sentence or some of it just 431 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 7: swept under the rug. But the other issue was when 432 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 7: he wanted to get a weapon. Once they determined, look, 433 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 7: you got to go back to your home. We're not 434 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 7: going to provide you with twenty four hour security anymore. 435 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 7: Months and months and months after the incident, he wanted 436 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 7: to have a weapon. Well, the problem was he couldn't 437 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 7: pass a background check. Now that's telling right there. When 438 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 7: a police officer can't pass a background check at FBI 439 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 7: background check, there we have a real problem with an 440 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 7: officer who's on the duty, who has a gun, and 441 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 7: then it appears that he failed a proficiency test for 442 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 7: a shotgun with the Capitol Police. But this is the person, 443 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 7: not only who's been through all of this, who was 444 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 7: still on the force to be in the position to 445 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 7: make that life or death decision at that moment. Not 446 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 7: judging whether he did right or wrong, but I'm saying 447 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 7: he should have never been in that position himself. But 448 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,719 Speaker 7: this person is then promoted, just recently promoted to captain. 449 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 7: This is a problem that we have within senior management 450 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 7: and leadership within Capitol Police that needs to be addressed. 451 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 1: So there are a couple of layers of this. There's 452 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: a current leadership, the chief, the assistant chiefs that are 453 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: involved us. And then there's that Capitol Police Board, which 454 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: is a unique entity that hovers over this department and 455 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 1: sometimes in Jex's politics, a lot of other most other 456 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: departments don't have that sort of entity. Are you making 457 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: some recommendations how maybe to change that structure? 458 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 7: I believe we need a select committee that is focused 459 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 7: on the security of the United States Capital. 460 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 5: You know, we've done a lot with our. 461 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 7: January sixth investigation and have done more than anyone ever 462 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 7: thought that we would do to get to the truth. 463 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 7: A lot of what we've uncovered, still has a lot 464 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 7: of investigation to go, but I'm confident with a new 465 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 7: Department of Justice, we can hand over the evidence we 466 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 7: have and that they will thoroughly investigate it. But there's 467 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 7: one thing that we've uncovered that no one else can 468 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 7: fix except for the United States Congress, and that's the 469 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 7: issues we have internally. You have the architect of the Capital, 470 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 7: you have the Capitol Police, you have both Sergeant at 471 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 7: arms that collectively are responsible for security of this capital. 472 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 5: I believe we need a select. 473 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 7: Committee that is dedicated to looking into all of those 474 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 7: to find how politicized each of those organizations are. And 475 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 7: even the Capitol Police Inspector General.

It gives everybody in the country a chance 571 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: to kind of dial in and understand what you deal 572 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: with every day in Arizona. What were some of the 573 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: highlights of that visit. What were some of the takeaways? 574 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 9: Well, look, any highlight having Tom Holman and doctor Phil, 575 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 9: both of them getting their ear their audience, you know, 576 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 9: doctor Phil, Tom Holman, myself and Mark Danl's the sheriff 577 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 9: of Cochees County. We sat down together and we talked 578 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 9: about this, how this was going to look, how important 579 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 9: local law enforce and sheriffs, what their role would be 580 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 9: in getting these communities back, getting the folks that are 581 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 9: criminals that came from other countries, getting them out of here, 582 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 9: making sure that we're taking care. 583 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 10: Of America first. 584 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 9: You know, Tom had some really very touching stories and 585 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 9: he also this is a tough guy and he's the 586 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 9: right guy for the job, and I think when you 587 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 9: watch this Doctor Phil special, you're going to see it. 588 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 9: But he'd also spend time with not just myself and 589 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 9: Sheriff Daniel's and Sheriff Wilmot. He had a call with 590 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 9: the executive portion of the National Sheriff's Association. So this 591 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 9: is a Sheriffs from across the country are excited John 592 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 9: and Amanda for this work, and we're excited to have 593 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 9: a guy like Tom Holman leading the charge. 594 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: That's important. 595 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 3: He is. 596 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 4: He has such a no nonsense way of delivering and 597 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 4: leaving emotion out of it, which I think is what 598 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 4: the American people appreciate about his approach. I want to 599 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 4: ask you about folks though, like in myc Mayor Eric Adams, 600 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 4: because he indicated a few times that he's willing to 601 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 4: work with the Trump administration. Do you think do you 602 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 4: think that's genuine or do you think he's just saying that. 603 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,239 Speaker 9: You know, I think Eric Adams is smarter than some 604 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 9: of these folks. I think Eric Adams is realizing the 605 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 9: American people spoke and they said, look, we need to 606 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 9: fix this problem. He sees the impact that it's had 607 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 9: on New York. He's hearing from New. 608 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 10: Yorkers every day. 609 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 9: I think the only challenge for him is balancing that 610 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 9: political stance that the left has taken so hard to 611 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 9: the left and so pro illegal immigration, so pro human trafficking, 612 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 9: drug trafficking, because that's really what you get when you 613 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 9: talk about open borders and illegal trafficking. The cartels benefit, 614 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 9: and places like New York and so many other communities, 615 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 9: every community across this country has been affected. So I 616 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 9: think Mayor Adams is real when he says he wants 617 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 9: to sit down with Tom Homan, and I know Tom Homan, 618 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 9: we talked about it. He's excited to get out and 619 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 9: sit down with Eric Adams so they can figure out 620 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 9: how they fix the problem in New York as well. 621 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 9: And I think they're going to find a good balance 622 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 9: that works for the American people, and it works for 623 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 9: Mayor Adams in New York as well. 624 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that'll be a big moment should it happen, that'll 625 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: be great, Sheriff. I want to talk a little bit 626 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: about an issue came up earlier in the show, Congressman 627 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: Tom Tiffany saying, a bunch of Chinese nationals now go 628 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: to Marianna's Island. They have children to get birthright citizenship 629 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: so they can get a backdoor into the United States. 630 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: There's a big debate in this country over birthright citizenship. 631 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: After all of the work you've done and all the 632 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: things you've seen, where do you stand on that? 633 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 5: Look? 634 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 9: I think it's something that needs to be evaluated by 635 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 9: Congress and defined. I don't think its intention is what 636 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 9: it's being used right for right now. This has certainly 637 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 9: been a backdoor for people who came into this country 638 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 9: illegally and who are trying to stay here illegally, and 639 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 9: I don't think that's what the founding fathers intended. So 640 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 9: I do think that Congress, Sentate, and judges are going 641 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 9: to have to really define this out. I think that 642 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 9: there needs to be a very stringent rule in place 643 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 9: for being born here into this country. 644 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 10: We can't afford it anymore. 645 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,479 Speaker 9: We're at a place in this country between crime on 646 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 9: the rise, between our economy the amount of money it 647 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 9: takes to deal with this illegal immigration. I think those 648 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 9: problems are too far reaching that we've got to fix 649 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,479 Speaker 9: this and really define what it is that the founding 650 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 9: fathers intended. 651 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 2: Great idea, Sheriff. 652 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 4: If you remove that incentive, the birthright citizenship, how much 653 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 4: does that disincentivize people from coming here illegally to begin with? 654 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 3: How big of an a dent will that make. 655 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 9: Well, First of all, President Trump will disincentivize this the 656 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 9: messaging saying it's illegal to come into this country without 657 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 9: permission without going through the proper process, That in and 658 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 9: of itself is going to start to stop the flow 659 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 9: of people coming through this country, which has a global 660 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 9: impact as well. Don't think that countries like Panama and 661 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 9: all these other countries like Mexico, they're not affected by 662 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 9: our policy season America or our failure to secure our border. 663 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 9: So this administration's messaging has been poor, just total. President 664 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 9: Trump coming back in, we're already seeing the cartel making changes. 665 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 9: They're going back to the ways they did while he 666 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 9: was president, much more obscure through the deserts coming in 667 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 9: through the night, large groups trying to be undetected. The 668 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 9: other piece of it is holding people accountable that came 669 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 9: into this country illegally, sending them back because they didn't 670 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 9: follow the law. We cannot just say yes, we're okay 671 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 9: with you breaking the law. No, that's not how it works. 672 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 9: We do have to hold them accountable. And once you 673 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 9: start removing people, I think a lot of people are 674 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 9: going to self deport and you change that birthright thing, 675 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 9: all of those things will combine to really help us 676 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 9: get our border under control, our immigration system fixed, and 677 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 9: Congress and Senate can go to work on trying to 678 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 9: pass common sense immigration important, very important. 679 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 4: It's going to be very interesting to see that self 680 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 4: deportation and what that does for the countries that allowed 681 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 4: them to come in initially, like Mexico, because they. 682 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 3: Got to go through somewhere. 683 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 4: So that's going to be very interesting to see.

I don't think 704 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: they've had enough education about what happens when someone gets 705 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: scammed and all of a sudden they have to unwind 706 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: the loan that's against their name, the equity that's been gone, 707 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: and get their house back. 708 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 2: That they're living in. 709 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: Can you give us some man anecdotes or some stories 710 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: about just how hard it is once it happens. 711 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 712 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 13: Absolutely. 713 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 14: We've actually got a couple of really good stories over 714 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:33,320 Speaker 14: the last couple of weeks, we've received multiple reports, multiple 715 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 14: reports coming out of Ohio where Cleveland Police have told 716 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 14: investigators that they've received more than a dozen reports of 717 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 14: title pup cases just in the recent months. And these 718 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 14: are obviously just the ones that are being reported, not 719 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 14: the ones that are going unseen. So I wanted to 720 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,720 Speaker 14: touch on two of them today to kind of highlight 721 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 14: the importance of monitoring your title. 722 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 13: So, in the first. 723 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 14: Case, three men have been incited for these to use 724 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 14: the forged documents to steal and sell properties across Cleveland 725 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 14: and Garfield Heights. They out away with stealing four homes 726 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 14: before they were found out. 727 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 13: And what do you guys think, Do you think they 728 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 13: got caught because of investigators. 729 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 14: And cast cask for Nope, they were caught because one 730 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 14: of the legitimate homeowners was trying to sell their house 731 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 14: and the real estate age was doing just a routine 732 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,879 Speaker 14: title check to make sure that it was in their name, 733 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 14: and they found out that they were no longer the 734 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 14: homeowner on file. So not only did the legitimate homeowner 735 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 14: have to stop the entire scale of their home, but 736 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 14: now they're dealing with this huge litigation issue trying to 737 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 14: reverse all the damage and just get their home back 738 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 14: in their possession because legally on paper, it's not theirs. 739 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 13: It's very scary. And then sorry. 740 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 14: The other case, although the story just recently surfaced due 741 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,720 Speaker 14: to all this other activity going on, the legitimate property 742 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 14: owner has been dealing with the aftermath of the fraudulent 743 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 14: sale of his three vacant properties for five years and 744 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 14: it was the same thing. The criminals transferred the properties 745 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 14: out of this name using quick clean deeds and then 746 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 14: sold them behind his back. And since then he's only 747 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 14: been able. 748 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 13: To recover one of the three properties and has spent 749 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 13: upwards of thirty thousand dollars trying to give me back 750 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 13: thirty thousand dollars. 751 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,439 Speaker 2: It's the worst part two and it's only got one 752 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 2: back in five years. 753 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 14: Right, Well, yeah, and the worst part is they found 754 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 14: the person that did it. 755 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 13: They've attended to file criminal part is multiple times and 756 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 13: nothing is stuck. So they're still pursuing the civil stuff. 757 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,320 Speaker 14: But I can't even get this person charged with a 758 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 14: crime because it's a paperwork issue. 759 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 2: Horrible God. 760 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 4: And well, I think in that first story about receiving 761 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 4: that phone. 762 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 3: Call from your realtor that the home is not in 763 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 3: your name. 764 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 4: I mean, what a horrible, horrible situation.

And that is the absolute scariest 779 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 14: thing in the world for homeowners because that means that 780 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 14: anyone could come in and file something for their property 781 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 14: with no authentication.

You and 879 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 4: I were speaking off air about the fact that there 880 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,319 Speaker 4: must be something in the water in Wisconsin because there 881 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 4: are great investigators up on Capitol Hill who come out 882 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 4: of Wisconsin. Senator Ron Johnson, Congressman Glenn Growthman, Congressman Tom Tiffany. 883 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 3: They got it going on. 884 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and also the chairman of the House Administration Committee, 885 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 1: Brian Oh, my gosh, I'm having to see you now, Style, 886 00:42:58,200 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 1: who's done all the. 887 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,839 Speaker 2: Great work on what I think will be the big 888 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,319 Speaker 2: scandal of. 889 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty five, which is the fundraising scandal, the possibility 890 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 1: of foreign money seepa through online portals like that. So 891 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,439 Speaker 1: it's going to be great ActBlue among of them. Yeah, listen, 892 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 1: you're right they care about accountability because I think Wisconsin's 893 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: a bottom line state. Thirty forty fifty years ago, there 894 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: was a guy named Bill Proxmeyer as a center who 895 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 1: created the Golden Fleece Award that every week would identify 896 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: a wasteful form of federal spending and shame, and it 897 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 1: became I used to write it every time I was 898 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: a young reporter at AP. Is my job to write 899 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:34,719 Speaker 1: the Golden Fleece Award. That mentality still exists in that 900 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: state in a big way. And I think with the 901 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 1: hearing today with Doge, where members of Congress got a 902 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,320 Speaker 1: chance to just sit and talk to elon Musk and 903 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,720 Speaker 1: Vivek Ramaswami. You got this sense now that this isn't 904 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: a hypothetical thing anymore. They're getting down to business. I 905 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: think Troy Nelser was on our show last night, said 906 00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,279 Speaker 1: they're ready to get the fish. They're ready to take 907 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 1: really significant parts of the government and get rid of 908 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 1: it because it's just unnecessary. And I think Tom Tiffany 909 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: said something really important. It probably is going to take 910 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: two outsiders like Musk and Ramaswami to get the ball 911 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:10,959 Speaker 1: rolling because Congress has always been willing to talk about 912 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 1: it and never willing to do it. But having two 913 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: CEOs you know how to get things done, could really 914 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: change the dynamic. 915 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 12: Yeah. 916 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 4: By the way, there was a subliminal reference there to 917 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 4: another great investigator who started his career in Wisconsin. 918 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 3: What's that guy's oh of John Solomon? 919 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 2: Oh? Yes, I guess I could. That claimed to Wisconsin. 920 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 4: Probably too vague of a subliminal reference. Back on Doge, though, 921 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 4: you had Doge and Doge junior. 922 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 3: Elon Musk brought his son on his shoulders into Capitol Hill. 923 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 3: I love that so much. He looks a lot like 924 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 3: him too. There is one picture that. 925 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 4: I saw that he's got like the same type, a 926 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 4: bit of a scowl on his face, but also about 927 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 4: ten percent mischief that I think is really going to 928 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 4: ruffle some feathers up there on Capitol Hill. 929 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 3: They You know, what was interesting is that. 930 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 4: Neither Elon Mosque nor vive A k Ramaswami spoke a 931 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 4: lot to the media before they. 932 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 3: Went up to Capitol Hill. 933 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,879 Speaker 4: And that signals to me that they are not going 934 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:12,240 Speaker 4: to be dealing with the press's nonsense when it comes 935 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 4: to draining the swamp and trying to reduce spending and 936 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 4: regulations and do everything they can to remove the waste. 937 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 4: But John, every time I hear someone complaining about what 938 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 4: this could or would do, what the repercussions would be, 939 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 4: what the results the success is, I think to myself, 940 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,799 Speaker 4: who who doesn't want to cut waste? This seems so 941 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 4: common sense, and yet you find person after person on 942 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 4: Capitol Hill who has. 943 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 3: An issue with it. And I'll tell you why. 944 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 4: It's because the interests and the cutting are overlapping in 945 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 4: their life. 946 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:44,279 Speaker 2: That's it. 947 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 1: Listen, their donors want these programs and so they just 948 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: keep exploding them. The great thing about Elon Musk and 949 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 1: Veva A Ramaswami. They're too rich to be bought by donors, 950 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 1: and they take a CEO's approach to this. Right, CEOs 951 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 1: don't spend months briefing the media before they do. They 952 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,400 Speaker 1: get the job done, then they announce it. And you 953 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: know in Congress they spend months talking to the media 954 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: and then they never get the job done. So the 955 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,760 Speaker 1: dynamic is changing. I think that's what Tom Tiffany really 956 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: seized onto today, that these guys get the work done, 957 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: then brief the medium, and they don't need to talk 958 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 1: to him right now. And I think that sanctity of 959 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 1: let's just get the job done or worry about the 960 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 1: credit and the explaining in the media later, is going 961 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 1: to be very different for a town that often naval 962 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: gazes at the media and actually never really gets anything done. 963 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm really excited to see what happens. I'll tell you 964 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 1: another dynamic I want to be watching. I want to 965 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 1: get your thoughts on this. We see Senator Joni ERNs 966 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 1: from Iowa leading the attack as a Republican against Pete Headsig, 967 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: trying to block his nomination, and I'm watching on social media. 968 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: I'm beginning to watch some of the conservative groups starting to. 969 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,800 Speaker 2: Rally and say, wait a second. A lot of senators 970 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 2: were willing to. 971 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:55,400 Speaker 1: Give Doe Biden Lloyd Austin, but they don't want to 972 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:56,720 Speaker 1: give Donald Trump. 973 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 2: Pete Hegsith and. 974 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 1: A lot of senators I want to give gave Merrick 975 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 1: Garland to Joe Biden, but didn't want to give Matt 976 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 1: Gates or whoever. I think there's going to be an 977 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 1: interesting pressure moment the next couple of weeks. I think 978 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 1: Egsit's going to stick around for a while. It's going 979 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 1: to be a fight. I think you're going to start 980 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 1: to see some of these senators say, well, hey, why 981 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 1: could you give us Merrick Garland and not want to 982 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 1: get peg heg Seth. I watched that dynamic closely. I 983 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: think Joni Ernst is going to fail a lot of pressure, 984 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 1: maybe even get an early challenger to herself from the 985 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 1: MAGA world. 986 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:33,280 Speaker 3: I hope she's getting the message. 987 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 4: But ninety three, I believe ninety three was the number 988 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 4: of senators who confirmed Lloyd Austin. If you are a 989 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 4: Republican in the Senate and you do not vote for 990 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:44,919 Speaker 4: someone like Pete HeiG Seth, someone who has served two 991 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 4: decades in the Middle East, has served our country valiantly, 992 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 4: fu Bronze stars, you. 993 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:51,320 Speaker 3: Know, double Ivy League educated. 994 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 4: Because I know that that matters to some people when 995 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,759 Speaker 4: it comes to someone who has seen war, who has 996 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 4: seen combat, and someone who can actually relate to the 997 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:04,359 Speaker 4: people who will be affected and possibly devastated by that 998 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 4: person's decisions, I think that he's a great pick. As 999 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 4: far as Senator Jonie Ernst, I have seen the same 1000 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 4: thing that you have a lot of chatter out there 1001 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 4: of people saying, you know, if she doesn't vote, if 1002 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 4: she voted to confirm Lloyd Austin what she did, but 1003 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 4: she doesn't vote to confirm Pete hegseeth, then she's got 1004 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 4: a pretty major primary coming. Although I did see, I 1005 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 4: believe about four or five hours ago that Senator Mike 1006 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 4: Lee thinks that both Pete Hegseth and Cash Battel are 1007 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,440 Speaker 4: actually going to make it through. They'll be bruised and 1008 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 4: maybe bloodied, but they will make it through the confirmation process. 1009 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 1: What do you think, Yeah, listen, I think there's also 1010 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: a strategy here, which is Pete Hexset's going to take 1011 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 1: all the heat shield incoming for a while, and that 1012 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: lasts some of the other nominees and kind of maybe 1013 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 1: sale through quicker that in and of itself as a 1014 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 1: service to President Trump. So and he's a fighter and 1015 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 1: his lawyer as a fighter. We have Mom on the 1016 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: show a lot, Tim parlatorb That guy knows how to fight. 1017 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,720 Speaker 1: And this is not a team that's going to surrender quickly. 1018 00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 1: They're going to keep making the case and turning the 1019 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,240 Speaker 1: tables on some these Republicans that have given Joe Biden 1020 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,640 Speaker 1: everything they want but want to deprive Donald Trump, He's 1021 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:05,800 Speaker 1: choice for Defense Secretary. 1022 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 2: I think that dynamic is going to play out. 1023 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,720 Speaker 1: And I was thinking who would be a real surprising 1024 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 1: challenger to Joani Yarth someday where he comes up again. 1025 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 1: You know, there's an Iowan living in Arizona right now 1026 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:19,880 Speaker 1: who knows something about running for the Senate. 1027 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 2: Oh indeed, Kerry Lake, maybe just keep an eye. I 1028 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 2: don't know. I was just thinking about that today. 1029 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:30,360 Speaker 4: No, that would be very, very speculated. Yeah, I have 1030 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:33,720 Speaker 4: to get your take on Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman saying 1031 00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,839 Speaker 4: that Donald Trump should be pardoned in the New York 1032 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 4: case because it was politically motivated to begin with. He's 1033 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:42,280 Speaker 4: quickly becoming one of my favorite Democrat centers. 1034 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 1: He understands the state, he understands the sentiments of the 1035 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:46,719 Speaker 1: Democrats should learn from him. 1036 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they absolutely should. And Bernie Sanders. 1037 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,120 Speaker 4: We're finding Bernie Sanders on the side of Elon Muskin, 1038 00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 4: the Vakermaswam. 1039 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 3: And when it comes to cutting the ways. 1040 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:56,400 Speaker 4: What a world we live in, all right, everybody, that's. 1041 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:57,600 Speaker 3: All the time we have for you tonight. 1042 00:49:57,600 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 4: We're going to see you right here tomorrow at six Gamestercrets, 1043 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 4: and she felt us
