1 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: The House passed a budget. 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:06,480 Speaker 2: It's awful, but we're going to discuss what's in it 3 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:09,560 Speaker 2: and all that in just a moment. We'll talk about well, 4 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 2: everything going on in the world right now, Ukraine stuff. 5 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: It's going to be a wild night, and I'm right, okay, 6 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: So let's talk about the budget, the budget bill. Last night, 7 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 2: while you were sleeping, well I don't know, depending on 8 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 2: when you went to bed, but while you were sleeping 9 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 2: by the hair on their chiny chin chin, the House 10 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: passed the budget. There are some things you need to 11 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 2: know about it, and we're just going to talk about it. Frankly, 12 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: One Trump supports it. This was Trump's budget bill. They 13 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 2: loaded this thing up with everything he wants done. He 14 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: called it, and I quote, a big, beautiful budget bill. 15 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: So whether you love it or hated, this has the 16 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: backing of Thenald Trump's to just know he's going to 17 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,279 Speaker 2: sign it. Doesn't really matter what you or I think 18 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 2: about it. He's going to sign it once this thing 19 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: finally gets through the Senate and not everything else. It's 20 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: going to be signed into law. Okay, that's one. 21 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 1: Two. 22 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 2: Why is Donald Trump backing this bill? Well, presidents, this 23 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: is universal Republican and Democrat presidents when they get elected, 24 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 2: understand that. 25 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: They really don't have that long. 26 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 2: They don't have a big window in order to get 27 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: things done that they want to get done. And in fact, 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 2: most presidents get one bill, one big bill that does 29 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 2: what they want. If you're a Barack Obama, it was Obamacare. 30 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: If you're Joe Biden, it was the Inflation Reduction Act. 31 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 2: If that's how it works, Republicans works the same way. 32 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 2: Last time Trump got elected, what did he get? He 33 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: got a big tax cut bill and. 34 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: That was it. 35 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 2: You generally get about one and Trump knows this is 36 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: no dummy. Trump has big plans. We've talked about this 37 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: many times before. He has a big agenda, big plans. 38 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 2: He wants to ensure it is going to get funded. 39 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 2: And the things that are in this bill, things like 40 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 2: border security, national security, things like that. They loaded the 41 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 2: thing up to give I don't want to say a 42 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 2: blank check, but they even raised a debt limit that 43 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: they basically told Donald Trump, the things you want here 44 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 2: they are this is yours. Enjoy Now people are going 45 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 2: to feel different ways about that. Thomas Massey, one of 46 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: the great members of Congress, came out said this. 47 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 3: We're gonna add three hundred and twenty eight billion dollars 48 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 3: to the deficit this year. We're gonna add two hundred 49 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 3: and ninety five billion dollars to the deficit the year 50 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 3: after that, and two hundred and forty two billion dollars 51 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 3: to the deficit after that. Under the rosiest assumptions, why 52 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,679 Speaker 3: would I vote for that? The only way they get 53 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 3: to this magic thing where it's not going to kill 54 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: our country is five years from now they imagine two 55 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 3: point five percent growth accumulates, and that even right here 56 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 3: they say they're going to cap discretionary spending. You think 57 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 3: we're going to cap discretionary spinning and then spend at 58 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,399 Speaker 3: the rate of at the rate of inflation after that? 59 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 4: That has never happened. 60 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 2: Thomas Massey knows what he's talking about. Now, keep in mind, 61 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 2: there are plenty of good members of the House. 62 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: I know we don't like to think of it like that, 63 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: but there. 64 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 2: Are good patriots there who want good things. Not a 65 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 2: ton of them, but they are there. There are plenty 66 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: of good patriots in the House who voted for it, 67 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: Tim Burchett being one. 68 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: Tim Burchett, why'd you vote for it? 69 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 5: I voted for it because there are tax cuts in 70 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 5: this thing. We're shrinking. Actually, there really are real cuts, 71 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 5: and there is tax relief for the middle class, and 72 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 5: there's border security in this bill. So it's not everything 73 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 5: you want, but it's I'm a believer. If you're not 74 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 5: at the table, you're on the menu. And dad, gumma, 75 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 5: the American taxpayer has been on the menu a whole lot. 76 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 5: So hopefully we'll we'll move ahead. The Senate version has 77 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 5: actually spends more. Actually, they're not actual cuts in it, 78 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 5: and I worry about it, so we'll see what happens. 79 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 5: And had a great conversation with the President today. He 80 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 5: was very friendly and answered all my questions and shares 81 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 5: my concerns about the growth of government and how we 82 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 5: need to make some cuts. I'm not real easy about 83 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 5: all of it, just because it's just just so massive, 84 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 5: and I would like to have well we all know me. 85 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 5: I'd like to cut this thing to the quick, but 86 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 5: that the reality is that's not going to pass. We 87 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 5: didn't get some legitimate cuts. So anyway, thank you for 88 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 5: seeing me here. 89 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: He just murders me. 90 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: That was Tim Burchett with his trademark dry delivery, sounding 91 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 2: as thrilled, as he normally does with how things work 92 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. But that's the Tim Burchett version 93 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 2: of it. Now, as far as the Senate bill, what 94 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 2: are we going to get when this thing gets washed 95 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 2: through the dirty jockstrap of. 96 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: The United States Senate? 97 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 2: Well, Ron Johnson famously is on the spending problem in America. 98 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 2: You remember he came on here and he told you 99 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 2: what he thought about it. 100 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 6: He believes all of his tax cuts that he ran 101 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 6: on as a candidate would be included in that. 102 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: There's no guarantee of that. 103 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 6: The bad thing about what the House is doing is 104 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 6: whatever we do in terms of taxes would not be permanent. 105 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 6: It would expire, just like the Tax Cutting Jobs Act. Mean, 106 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 6: that's a real problem with Tax Cutting Jobs Act. Their 107 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 6: provisions have already expired. Everything other than the C corporate 108 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 6: and the you know, tax revisions for only five cent 109 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 6: American businesses expire automatically twenty twenty six. 110 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: Let's not make that same mistake. That was a massive mistake. 111 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: Let's not do that twice. I mean, learn from what 112 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: mistakes we made last time. 113 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: That's about as animated as I've ever heard Ron Johnson, 114 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: who's famously pretty even Keto guy. Okay, so let's just 115 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: talk about this. I want you to picture a house, 116 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: all right, stay with me here. I want you to 117 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 2: picture a house. And this house has major, major problems. 118 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 2: The foundation of the house. The foundation it is cracking, 119 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 2: it is faltering. The studs and the walls they're rotted out, 120 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 2: Termites are eating. The house is about ready to fall down. 121 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: And to make matters worse, the landscaping. It's all dying. 122 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: It's bad. 123 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: So let's talk about DOGE, shall we, Department of Government efficiency? 124 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 2: Because all that's all in the news every single day, 125 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 2: elon musk Doze. They're finding waste here, waste there. Were 126 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,679 Speaker 2: stopping this, We're stopping that. We're stopping this stop net. 127 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 2: What DOOSEE is doing is good, to be clear, it 128 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 2: is good. Defunding the communist menace, which has been mostly 129 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 2: funded with your money, is a good thing. 130 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: It is a good thing, good good good. Doge is good. 131 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: But saying DOGE. 132 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 2: Can fix our debt and deficit problem is like looking 133 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 2: at that house and thinking you can just replace the 134 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: flowers out front and everything will be fine. Yes, the 135 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 2: flowers need to be replaced. The landscaping landscaping needs improved, 136 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 2: But none of that means anything at all if the 137 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 2: foundation rots out from under you, and the studs and 138 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: the walls end up collapsing and the whole home falls 139 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 2: on your family in the middle of the night. Who 140 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: cares about the flowers? Doosee is important? They're doing outstanding work. 141 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: We cannot save the United States of America without Congress 142 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: making significant cuts during COVID. You remember when the United 143 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 2: States of America got a bad chest cold and collectively 144 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: lost its mind. We decided we were going to spend 145 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: our way through a virus. Still very curious how that 146 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 2: is supposed to work. And during COVID we upped our 147 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 2: spending levels to get this and just wrap your mind 148 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 2: around this. We were already spending too much pre COVID. 149 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 2: During COVID, we started spending like we were spending in 150 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: World War Two. Let me say that one more time. 151 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 2: During COVID, we got a little sick and we started 152 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 2: spending like we were spending in World War two. And 153 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 2: they won't cut anything now, so we are still Look, 154 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: we don't have COVID anymore, we are still spending as 155 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: if we are fighting a global war against evil super 156 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 2: powers and there are no significant cuts. Hey, listen, listen, 157 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 2: I'm thrilled as you are. About twenty million from doze 158 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 2: and a million from here, even a billion from there. 159 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: I'm happy too, You're happy, I'm happy. We are all happy. 160 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: That sounds really, really great. 161 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 2: We are thirty six trillion dollars in debt, and by 162 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 2: the time the ten year run of this budget is over, 163 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: that number will almost certainly be fifty trillion dollars. We 164 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 2: cannot doze our way to fiscal solvency. We simply cannot. 165 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 2: What we must have is a Congress and a president 166 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: willing to make unpopular cuts. That's what we need, and 167 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 2: not little ones either, big ones, huge cuts. 168 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: But how do we get that? How do we get 169 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 1: that wholl that's on us? 170 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 2: You see, when's the last time the American people ran 171 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: to the pools to vote out their local politician because 172 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 2: he's spent too much money. Take a minute and think you're. 173 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: A hyper informed person. 174 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: You're sitting here, walk, I'm right, you could be watching 175 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 2: anything so you know this stuff. When's the last time 176 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: Congress Scott swept out of office for spending too much money? 177 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: It's never happened once in my lifetime. The American people 178 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 2: not only don't care about the spending, the truth is 179 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 2: they like it. The American people like it when Senator 180 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 2: Idiot brings home one hundred million dollars for a brand 181 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: new airport. They like spending taxpayer money. And until that changes, 182 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 2: nothing changes. Oh, we can sit up here and cheer 183 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: about border security and new naval ships. So we can 184 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 2: sit up here and cheer about tax cuts. I don't 185 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 2: like paying taxes either. And all this stuff is good, 186 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 2: is good, But the foundations still crumbling, and the studs 187 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 2: and the walls are looking a little bit shaky and 188 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 2: man alive. It doesn't look like things are gonna change 189 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: anytime soon. All that may have made you uncomfortable, but 190 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 2: I am right. One of the great congress women. I 191 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 2: love her so much. Harriet Hageman joins us from the 192 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 2: great state of Wyoming. In just a moment, she voted 193 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 2: for it. Now, this is not some idiot. She knows 194 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: what she's doing. Very sharp woman. We'll talk to her 195 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,559 Speaker 2: about it. Before we talk to her about that, but 196 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 2: let's talk to you about sleeping. Sleep can be hard 197 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 2: to come by, and when you take something to sleep, honestly, 198 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 2: lots of. 199 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: Times, at least for me. Every time I've ever taken something. 200 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: To sleep in my life, I've regretted it because I 201 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: wake up and I don't feel rested. 202 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: Oh sure, I slept. You give me something to sleep. 203 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: I'll sleep for fourteen fifteen hours. I'll just die. But 204 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: then I wake up, I don't feel rested. I feel tired. 205 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: But then dream powder from Beam came along. One. 206 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 2: I love hot chalk with anyway, who doesn't. It's hot chocolate. 207 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 2: It's a couple of hot chocolate. It's delicious, only it 208 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 2: has natural things in it, like melotonin. And you just 209 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 2: sip on a cup of hot chocolate and you'll slowly 210 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 2: drift off to sleep and you're not tossing and turning 211 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 2: all night. But more importantly, when you wake up, you 212 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 2: feel ready, rested, ready for the day. Up to forty 213 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: percent off shotbeam dot com slash Jesse Kelly, We'll be back. 214 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 7: We got it done. We had to requisite number of 215 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,959 Speaker 7: votes to move this process along, and now passing the 216 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 7: buzzet budget resolution in the House that will go to 217 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 7: the Senate. This is the first important step and then 218 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 7: opening up the reconciliation process. We have a lot of 219 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 7: hard work ahead of us, But we are going to 220 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 7: deliver the American First agenda. We're going to deliver all 221 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 7: of it, not just parts of it. 222 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 2: Okay, that was Mike Johnson last night. Vote squeaked by. 223 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 2: Now the reconciliation process begins. Whatever that means, I bet you, 224 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 2: Harriet knows. But joining me now the wonderful congresswoman from 225 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: the state of Wyoming, Harriet Hageman. She is one of 226 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: the good ones out there. Okay, Harriet, you voted for this. 227 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 2: Guys like Thomas Massey, who also loved voted against it. 228 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 2: I understand both sides of it. I hear it all, 229 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 2: but it's your vote. You're the one in power on 230 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 2: the idiot on TV tell me about it. 231 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 8: Well, we need to. 232 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 9: Be moving forward with this part of the process so 233 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 9: that we can get to reconciliation. And reconciliation is going 234 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 9: to give us the opportunity to write a lot of 235 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 9: the wrongs from the Biden administration and do it quite quickly. 236 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 9: Under reconciliation, we only need fifty votes in the Senate 237 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 9: rather than sixty that would be typical under these circumstances, 238 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 9: and that's huge. 239 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 8: What that means is that we don't have to. 240 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 9: Be negotiating with the Democrats about funding the government and 241 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 9: the cuts that we are looking at doing. I think 242 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 9: it's very clear with the current administration and the support 243 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 9: that he has from that the president has from people 244 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,319 Speaker 9: around the country that we need to write size government 245 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 9: and we need to do that both through the legislative 246 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 9: action as well as some of the work that the 247 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 9: president is doing. So I have supported this particular step 248 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 9: in this process because I think that we truly need 249 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,719 Speaker 9: to get to some of the fundamentals and reverse some 250 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 9: of the things that Biden did, such as attempting to 251 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 9: hardwire the endangerment Finding into the so called Inflation Reduction 252 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 9: Act or IRA. So there are a lot of priorities 253 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 9: that I have with reconciliation. This is one step so 254 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 9: that we can get there, so we can start carrying 255 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 9: those out. 256 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 2: Does this eliminate the entire Inflation Reduction Act? Because we 257 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: were told, at least the little birdies were chirping before 258 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 2: this thing that there were a lot of even GOP 259 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 2: members of the House that didn't really want to get 260 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: rid of that nice little congressional gravy train because of 261 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: all the checks that came back to their districts. 262 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: Does it dump the whole thing? 263 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 8: I don't believe that it does. 264 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 9: Know well, but there are important things for my district 265 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 9: that we are getting rid of. I would like to 266 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 9: see the entire ira revealed. One of the challenges that 267 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 9: we have with reconciliation is there are very strict and 268 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 9: complicated rules of what we can and cannot do and 269 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 9: what they refer to the primary one as being a 270 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 9: bird rule, and the bird rule limits what you can 271 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,479 Speaker 9: do in a reconciliation package that you cannot be addressing policy. 272 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 9: Everything has to be budget oriented. The other challenge that 273 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 9: we have is that all of the work that we 274 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 9: do has to be scored by CBO. Now I've got 275 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 9: some concerns about the way that CBO scores our bills 276 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 9: as compared to how they score the Democrat bills. But 277 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 9: what we do have to do is we have to 278 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 9: make sure that we're staying on the budgeting side of 279 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 9: the ledger. 280 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 8: Not the policy side. 281 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 9: And that's why it becomes difficult in some ways to 282 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 9: do all of the things. 283 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 8: That we would like to do. 284 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 9: But what I'm focusing on is I indicated with the 285 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 9: endangerment finding, is I'm looking at those provisions of the 286 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 9: IRA did the Green New Deal Endangerment Finding agenda and policies, 287 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 9: and so we are taking portions of it out. The 288 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 9: other thing that we're trying to do that I think. 289 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 8: Is absolutely huge. 290 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 9: Is include portions of the Rains Act within reconciliation. Now, 291 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 9: what Rains Act would do is limit the power of 292 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 9: administrative agencies. One example, one primary provision of that being 293 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 9: an administrative agency could not adopt a regulation that has 294 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 9: an economic impact of over one hundred million dollars unless 295 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 9: it is approved by Congress. So again, trying to reclaim 296 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 9: the article what authority is what we're trying to do, 297 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 9: and the Rains Act would help us to do that. 298 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 9: It would substantially undermine the authority of these administrative agencies 299 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 9: and of the Executive Branch and their ability to legislate. 300 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 9: I'd like to see the number be lower. I think 301 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 9: one hundred million is too high, But again we have 302 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 9: to work with other members of Congress, and even getting 303 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 9: this through I think could have some challenges, but I 304 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 9: think as very important to the American people. 305 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 1: Do you get frustrated working with some of these dirt balls. 306 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 9: Well, Jesse, you know you have been one who's been 307 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 9: willing to talk about this for a long long time, 308 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 9: and you've talked about it in terms of your own 309 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 9: state and the challenges that you have with people who 310 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 9: run as conservatives and then when they come here to govern, 311 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 9: they do not govern as conservatives. 312 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 8: And you said at the. 313 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 9: Top of this interview that I was one of the 314 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 9: good ones. But the only reason you think I'm one 315 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 9: of the good ones is I'm doing exactly what I 316 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 9: said I would do when I ran for this office. 317 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 8: I told you what I was going to do, and every. 318 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 9: Single day that I get up, I try to do 319 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 9: exactly what I told the people of Wyoming. And so 320 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 9: it is important for me as a conservative to make 321 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 9: sure that I'm taking conservative votes and trying to write 322 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 9: this ship, trying to reorganize, and trying to resize a 323 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 9: downsize government. 324 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 8: I think it's important to do that. 325 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 9: There are some people that we work with that tend 326 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 9: to be more liberal, even if they do run as conservatives, 327 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 9: and that is a frustration. 328 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it. 329 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 2: You're also the chair of the anti Woke Caucus. 330 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: Please tell me about this how this come to be. 331 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 9: So it came to be because at the time Representative 332 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 9: Jim Banks started this, and the idea was to expose 333 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,199 Speaker 9: all of this woke ideology that has been embedded in 334 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 9: our schools and our government and society as a whole. 335 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 9: So it started about two years ago kind of at 336 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 9: the peak wokeness, if you will, with all of the 337 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,719 Speaker 9: social justice nonsense and the intersectionality that we were hearing 338 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 9: about and things, and so what Jim Banks did is 339 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 9: he was bringing in speakers to talk about how this 340 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 9: was affecting all of our various institutions again, our universities, 341 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 9: even going down to grade school and junior high, middle school, 342 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 9: and high school, how it was affecting our federal agencies. 343 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 9: And since he's gone to the Senate, I've taken on 344 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 9: the mantle of the anti woke Caucus, and what I'm 345 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 9: again trying to do is expose what this woke ideology does, 346 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 9: what this social justice ideology does. I don't know if 347 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 9: you saw my se spex, my SEAPAC speech on Saturday, 348 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 9: but what I talked about is how this woke ideology 349 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 9: is largely to blame for the disaster that we saw 350 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 9: out in California. 351 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 8: And what it has to do with is a misdirection 352 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 8: of assets. 353 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 9: So you have California that has has focused on climate 354 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 9: change and global warming and DEI and all of this 355 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 9: nonsense for all of these years, and then what happened 356 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 9: when there's an emergency. They've got air, their fire hydrants 357 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 9: are sucking air, and they don't have water in the reservoirs. 358 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 9: This is what happens when a government focuses on doing 359 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 9: things that it shouldn't be doing, it becomes incapable of 360 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 9: doing the things that it should And I think that 361 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 9: California is just an incredible example of that. We know 362 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 9: because they did they did videos of it. They showed 363 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 9: videos of these women talking about how, you know, having 364 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 9: more women and more gay people in the fire department 365 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 9: was so incredibly important because when you arrive at an emergency, 366 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 9: the people that you're trying to help, they want you 367 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 9: to look like them. And I'm thinking, that's just the 368 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 9: dumbest thing I've ever heard of in my life. 369 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 8: Who would say such a thing. 370 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 9: I don't care if you have fourteen heads when you 371 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 9: arrive at my house. If I'm having a heart attack, 372 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,239 Speaker 9: just save my life, you know. And so what they 373 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 9: were doing is they really meet misdirected assets and It's 374 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 9: happened at every single level of the government, but in 375 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 9: California it's caused hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars 376 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 9: in damages and absolutely destroyed lives. Again focusing on global 377 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 9: warming rather than hardening their infrastructure. Did you know that 378 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 9: Gavin Knew Some veto a bill that would have provided 379 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 9: funding for hardening the infrastructure, providing for escape routes, would 380 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 9: have done more in terms of vegetation management. That bill 381 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 9: passed both houses of the Democrat controlled legislature, and he 382 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 9: vetoed it. You know why he vetoed it because he said, yes, 383 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 9: we need to do more in terms of fireman mitigation 384 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 9: and protection, but we cannot do that in a way 385 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 9: that will undermine my vision for housing. And his vision 386 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 9: for housing is multifamily homes and shoving people into fifteen 387 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 9: minute cities. So he vetota bill that could have helped 388 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 9: with that catastrophe from last fall because he wants to 389 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 9: shove people into mut multi unit housing and get rid 390 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 9: of single family homes. 391 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 8: Now, who would do anything that's that dumb. 392 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 2: Communists. It's like the sunny version of North Korea. It's 393 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 2: so sad what happened in California congresswoman, come back and 394 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 2: join me anytime. 395 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: Appreciate it. 396 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 2: I feel so bad for all my friends in California. 397 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 2: I have so many friends in California, hard right. I'm 398 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 2: total anti communists. And the text say sent me, it's 399 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 2: just Jesse, We're in hell.

I'm thrilled with it. 405 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 2: I'm more thrilled that my business goes to a company 406 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 2: that shares my values. Wasson Watch shares our values. And 407 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 2: they don't do it quietly. You know, so many people 408 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 2: in corporate America and sports and whatever, we're always told, oh, 409 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 2: there's a lot of people on our side. And don't 410 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 2: you ever look around and say, well, where are they? 411 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:37,719 Speaker 2: Why don't they speak up? Wasson Watch speaks up on 412 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 2: behalf of you, your country, the unborn. They don't just 413 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 2: make these amazing high end watches. You should see the 414 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 2: little leather case they send with it. This just awesome anyway. 415 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 2: They don't just do that. They promote our values loudly 416 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 2: and unapologetically. That's who gets my business. Ten percent off 417 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 2: your watch at wassonwatch dot com. 418 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: We'll be back. 419 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 10: Most FBI people, current and former, are really shocked.

So 423 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,719 Speaker 10: bringing someone who has no connection to that whatsoever is 424 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 10: really stunning and dangerous. I would add. 425 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 2: Stunning and dangerous. We only have the most qualified people 426 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 2: in leadership rules that the FBI.

I can't remember when I 436 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 11: found out. Either it was Sunday night or when I 437 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 11: woke up Monday morning and I said, Wow, that's fantastic. 438 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 4: So these I mean, between. 439 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 11: Cash and Dan, uh, you don't need much more to 440 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 11: figure out what's gone on at the FBI, especially especially 441 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 11: Rushi Gates. So of course that's why someone like Andrew McCabe. 442 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 11: And remember how Andrew McCabe advanced through the ranks of 443 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 11: the FBI. I mean, this guy was not necessarily a 444 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 11: top rank a field agent, right. This is a guy 445 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 11: who stayed close to leadership and that was his thing. 446 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 11: He was a fancy lawyer from Duke University and the 447 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 11: you know, he polished all the right door knobs, and 448 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 11: that's how we got to where he was. And then 449 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 11: of course, you know, then of course he started out undermine, undermine. 450 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,360 Speaker 4: Call me, But that's that's another story. 451 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: Me. 452 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 11: I'm I'm incredibly excited about the leadership team at the FBI. 453 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 11: And then I suspect that all of your break viewing 454 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 11: audiences as well. 455 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of other things that were going on with 456 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 2: the FBI, Dan Bongino recently came out and talked about 457 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 2: one Adam shift here. 458 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 12: He was why is Adam Shift so worried? 459 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: Folks? 460 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 12: I strongly encourage you to go back and take another 461 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 12: look today at the Russia collusion hoax. 462 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: I know it's a story that's old, and. 463 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 12: A lot of people want to move on.

What happened there? 474 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 5: Lee? 475 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 2: And why is Adam Schiff probably staying up too late 476 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 2: now at night? 477 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:06,719 Speaker 8: Right? 478 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 11: Well, Adam Schiff was the major operative in the House 479 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 11: of Representatives who was pushing Russia Gate. He was ranking 480 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 11: member ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee while Devin 481 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 11: Nunez was chairman, and Shift played to block at every 482 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 11: possible turn. And you'll remember all of Adam Shift's TV 483 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 11: appearances where he said, I mean the people of the 484 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 11: House Intelligence They called him pathfinder, right because he was 485 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 11: always talking about he was a I've seen more than 486 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 11: circumstantial evidence that points to collusion. So shiff was a 487 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 11: very bad actor, and we suspect he was coordinating with 488 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 11: other players because there's actually documentary evidence of him meeting 489 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 11: with people like Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS. So I'm 490 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 11: glad that Dan is not going to let it go. 491 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 11: And I mean, I don't know how they're going to 492 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 11: work out, you know, who's doing what at the FBI, 493 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 11: you know, deputy director is an enormous job, but I 494 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 11: wouldn't be surprised. I certainly hope I have no his 495 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,479 Speaker 11: inside information, but I certainly hope that Dan takes that 496 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 11: same sentiment into into FBI headquarters in Washington and that 497 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 11: he that he's one of the people getting to the 498 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 11: bottom of what happened with Rushgate. 499 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,120 Speaker 4: Because Dan is absolutely right, Jesse. 500 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 11: I mean, this really became the template for operations targeting 501 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 11: not only Donald Trump and his aides, but also the 502 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 11: American public, Russia Gates. So I think it's very important 503 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 11: and I'm one hundred percent supportive of Dan's efforts to 504 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 11: get to the bottom of it. Now now that he 505 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 11: has access to everything that he needs, God willing will 506 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 11: start get getting more answers, and we'll get some accountability. 507 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 2: Finally, I'd like some accountability for one James Colly everyone, well, 508 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 2: people remember James Coby right. 509 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 1: Here he was. 510 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 9: When you think about a second Trump administration, what do 511 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 9: you think the implications would be for the FBI? 512 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 1: Oh? 513 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 13: Serious, for the Justice Department and the FBI, because Trump 514 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 13: is coming for those institutions. He knows their power, and 515 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 13: I think he has regrets that he didn't work hard 516 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 13: enough to corrupt them last time, So he's coming for them, 517 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 13: and that's a danger for all Americans. He's going to 518 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 13: put people in positions in those organizations. He didn't have 519 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 13: all stars the last time. He'll have the bottom of 520 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 13: the barrel this time, but people who will want to 521 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 13: do his will, and that should weary every American. This 522 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 13: election matters because of a reason like that. People have 523 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 13: to participate. You cannot sit on the sideline. I don't 524 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 13: care how you feel about Joe Biden. You must vote 525 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 13: for him because the consequences on the other side are 526 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 13: too severe. 527 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 2: Sounds like a man who is pretty worried about the 528 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 2: personal consequences. 529 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: Sounds like a manly who ran an off the books. 530 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 2: Honeypot investigation against the Republican nominee for president underneath Barague Obama. 531 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 11: Yeah, well, you know that we're hearing reports that the FBI, 532 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 11: that the FBI is looking at this. But here's the 533 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 11: crucial thing about that about that alleged operation that this 534 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 11: is remember Crossfire Hurricane. This was the operation investigating the 535 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 11: Trump team a llegend collusion, but this was tied to 536 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 11: the Hillary Clinton campaign. The Hillary Clinton campaign came up 537 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 11: with the Steele dossier, which the FBI used to get 538 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 11: a warrant to spy on Trump and his aides. Right, 539 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 11: there's no connection here, this honeypot operation to the Clinton campaign. 540 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 11: So that says that Komy was running this had nothing 541 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 11: to do with the Clinton campaign. He was running it 542 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 11: on his own, but under whose instructions? Remember, I think 543 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 11: this is so crucial to understand that Barack Obama was 544 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 11: the boss. These were all his spy chiefs, James Comy, 545 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 11: Andrew McCabe, John Brennan, James Clapper. So it'd be great 546 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 11: to get to the bottom of this, find out who 547 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 11: is running that honeypot operation. Was this just Comy's inspiration 548 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 11: or was Barack Obama, who again had had reason to 549 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 11: go after Donald Trump personal reason, then Debta grudges to 550 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 11: go after Trump. And the question is did he use 551 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 11: FBI resources to go after Donald Trump with this honeypot operation. 552 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a big question and a big no. No. 553 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 2: Okay, Lee, let's shift gears here before I let you go. 554 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 2: Iran word is out that Iran they think we're coming 555 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 2: for their nuclear sites and or Israel's coming for their 556 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 2: nuclear sites. 557 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: What's happening right now foreign policy wise? 558 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 4: Well, Donald Trump has made it pretty clear, right. 559 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 11: I mean first, you know, first, it was some time 560 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:38,719 Speaker 11: before the election when when Biden warned the Israelis against 561 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 11: hitting or any nuclear facilities, and Trump said, well, that's nuts, 562 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 11: because that's the first thing you'd want. 563 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 4: To hit, right. Nuclear bombs are very dangerous. 564 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 11: And so in February after the election, Donald Trump said, look, 565 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 11: I want to settle this. I want to settle this 566 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 11: with some sort of negotiation. But if we have to, yeah, 567 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 11: you know, they're not going to get it. We don't 568 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 11: want to bomb them, we don't want to decimate destroy Iran. 569 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 11: But they're not going to get the bomb. That's the 570 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 11: bottom line. So the Iranians are hearing this. This is 571 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 11: the first time that this is the first time or 572 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 11: the first president that the Iranians have ever heard this 573 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 11: from that who there are compelled to take seriously. So 574 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 11: I think Donald Trump is very serious about this, and 575 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 11: it is very dangerous the possibility that the Iranians would 576 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 11: would would have a nuclear weapon. So I'm pretty confident 577 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 11: that Donald Trump will stop it. He says it, and 578 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 11: I take the man at his word. We have plenty 579 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 11: of evidence to see them that Donald Trump is serious 580 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 11: about such matters. 581 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 2: Lee as always, thank you about come back. All right, 582 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: let's do a little Ukrainian talk. These minerals were supposed 583 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 2: to get. Apparently Zelensky's coming to DC on Friday. We're 584 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 2: going to get some minerals. So what does that mean. 585 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that with our panel next. 586 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 2: Before we talk about that, let me talk to you 587 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 2: about getting a new phone for yourself. What about a 588 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 2: new phone, brand new phone, iPhone fourteen Samsung Galaxy at 589 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,239 Speaker 2: no cost. I know your phone's cracked. I know your 590 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 2: phone's cracked. I know you drop it. I know you've 591 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,479 Speaker 2: dropped it probably several times. It's probably slowed down at 592 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 2: this point in time. Why don't you just switch to 593 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 2: pure talk with a qualifying purchase. You get a free 594 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 2: phone and you'll pay way less your bill. My bill 595 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 2: got cut in half when I switched from the Team Mobile. 596 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 2: Pure Talk not only shares and promotes our values, they 597 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 2: charge you less for the exact same phone service. You 598 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 2: realize that it's not some fly by night phone company. 599 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 2: They're on the same five G network. You don't drop calls. 600 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 2: I have better coverage now that I did with Tea Mobile, 601 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 2: Switch Puretalk, dot com, slash JESSETV. 602 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: They make it easy. We'll be back. 603 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 11: On Friday to the mineral deal sorted out. 604 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, hear that. I hear that he's coming on Friday. 605 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 2: Certainly it's okay with me if we'd like to, and 606 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 2: he would like to sign it together with me, and 607 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 2: I understand that it's a big deal, very big deal. 608 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 2: The peace process appears to be underway, and that's a 609 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 2: good thing. There's been all kinds of talks about minerals. 610 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 2: We get some minerals. What kind of minerals are we getting? 611 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 2: We are we getting some vitamins for one hundred million dollars. 612 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 2: Let's talk to a couple guys who knows. So we 613 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: don't sound stupid when we talk to our friends joining 614 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 2: me now Thomas Corbett Dylon, former advisor to Prime Minister 615 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 2: Boris Johnson, and my friend Wade Miller, Executive director of 616 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 2: the Center for Renewing America. 617 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: Thomas, let's start with you. 618 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 2: We keep reading articles about how we're going to get 619 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 2: some minerals and minerals and minerals, but normal people don't 620 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 2: know what any of that stuff means. 621 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: What are we getting. What's happening? 622 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 14: Well, Ukraine has one of the richest lands in Europe really, 623 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 14: so the potential there is massive. They have obviously lots 624 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 14: of raw earth minerals that are needed, you know, in 625 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 14: everything that is built, especially now that we're trying to 626 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 14: build everything in America. It's going to require a lot 627 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,959 Speaker 14: of importing. But I think this is important because people 628 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 14: don't realize that America gave so much money to Ukraine 629 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 14: without a guarantee. The Biden administration basically said, here's all 630 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 14: the free money. Meanwhile Europe was saying, here's money, but 631 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 14: we want this, we want that. 632 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: So it's actually good. 633 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 14: Trump is going back into time and saying, well, actually, 634 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 14: I think we deserve something in return for all the 635 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 14: cash we gave you. 636 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 1: Guys, Wade. 637 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 2: We were told at least Zelensky was caught on camera, 638 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 2: caught on camera who was actually giving a speech saying, 639 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 2: I'm not giving any of this stuff up. 640 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: Don't be no mineral deal. 641 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 2: And it seems like about five minutes later he's flying 642 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 2: to Washington, DC to sign his name on the dieted line. 643 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: What happened, well, I think Trump happened. 644 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 15: I mean Trump is the master of this type of 645 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 15: foreign diplomacy. He just needs to turn a few screws 646 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 15: and make them aware of all the different levers we 647 00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 15: can pull, but also point out that this isn't just 648 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 15: about getting paid back, although that is a big. 649 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: Component of it. 650 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 15: One of the risks of making a piece deal here 651 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 15: is later than being called, you know, Chamberlain, if something 652 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 15: sparks back up. We also don't want to add them 653 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 15: to NATO. So what does this do. It gives us 654 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 15: a significant financial interest. That is a signal to Russia 655 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 15: and Ukraine as well that if they try to spark 656 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 15: up things now, they're messing with our financial interests in 657 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 15: our investments. So it's kind of a soft power move 658 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 15: to ensure that this deal is workable and that later 659 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,479 Speaker 15: on Trump isn't getting called names by the radical left 660 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 15: and claiming that he's Chamberlain or some sort of an appeaser. 661 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 2: Wait, let me stay with you for a quick second. 662 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 2: Who is they meaning? Who gets this money, who's operating 663 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 2: these things? You know, we kind of forget that the 664 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 2: devil was oftentimes in the details. Is the United States 665 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 2: government going to start running minds over there in Ukraine? 666 00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:00,240 Speaker 2: How does this benefit me the American taxpayer? 667 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 15: Well, at the end of the day, after a deal 668 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 15: is set, what will probably happen is some sort of 669 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 15: bidding process that US firms will compete in, and I'm 670 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 15: sure that it will be some sort of political component to 671 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 15: make sure that this process is moving along. But this 672 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 15: will mostly be private sector investment, private US firms that 673 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 15: will create jobs and opportunity over there and also critically 674 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 15: create different supply lines. Right now, we're overly reliant on 675 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 15: China for a lot of different minerals. That's one of 676 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 15: the reasons, for instance, that Trump is so interested in 677 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 15: Greenland is because of all of the rare earth minerals 678 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 15: to make us less reliant on China. 679 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 2: Thomas, everyone knows by that, Well, I shouldn't say everyone. 680 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 1: Most people know. 681 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 2: By now that back in twenty twenty two there was 682 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: a peace steal on the table, a peace steal reportedly 683 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 2: that Zelenski was going to sign, Russia was going to sign, 684 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 2: and then, well, the thing your country and my country 685 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 2: have in common is our leaders told them no, no, no, no, no, no, 686 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:01,280 Speaker 2: keep fighting. 687 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:02,720 Speaker 1: Everyone needs to die first. 688 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 2: Do you have the same military industrial complex running your 689 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,439 Speaker 2: foreign policy that we do here? 690 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 14: Yes, unfortunately, and you know this was pretty much the 691 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 14: original military industrial complex. You know, a lot of these 692 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 14: corporations have been around for hundreds of years, so you're right, 693 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 14: there was a deal on the table. It was a 694 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 14: good deal, it was a fine deal. And the fact 695 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,240 Speaker 14: is is that not much has changed since that deal. 696 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 14: You know, as we saw Trump today say in the 697 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 14: cabinet meeting, no land is going to be changing hands. 698 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 14: They're not going to go and push Russia out of 699 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 14: the land that it's taken over. That's Russian territory now. 700 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 14: So the fact is that deal could have been done. 701 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:44,280 Speaker 14: It was sunk unfortunately by we think mostly Boris Johnson, 702 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 14: which is a bit of a sad situation for him 703 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 14: to be in. But it was this idea of him 704 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 14: taking this Churchill style, you know, never surrender type thing. 705 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 14: Well that was great during the Churchill era, but this 706 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 14: is a very different war. And all that has happened 707 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 14: is thousands of have lost their lives, and I think 708 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 14: that's a sad thing. So it's good that Trump is 709 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 14: realizing that this is over and it's time to end it. 710 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 1: Gosh, that is a sad thing. 711 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 2: One final word on the Ukraine Russia stuff for we 712 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 2: move on to anything else. 713 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: Wade. 714 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 2: So it sounds like from all the information I can gather, 715 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 2: Russia won. Am I reading that wrong? They came in, 716 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 2: they wanted a portion of Ukraine, the Russian speaking portion 717 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 2: of Ukraine. They bid it, they held it. They're not 718 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 2: going to be removed from it. They've tried for three years, 719 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 2: and in the end they get what they want. 720 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 15: I think that's fair. I think that they certainly have 721 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 15: the winning position. It may have been the case that 722 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 15: they wanted more of Ukraine and that they didn't get that. 723 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 15: There's a lot of reasons behind that that are historical 724 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 15: problems for logistic supply chains of the Russian military. They're 725 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 15: more effective as a moving group or in defensive positions, 726 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 15: but certainly at this point Ukraine does not have the 727 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,840 Speaker 15: ability to move them off those lines. So it's really 728 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 15: just kind of asinine to not take a peace deal 729 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 15: seriously to try to figure out a way to end this. 730 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,240 Speaker 15: The only other routes forward are just more endless suffering 731 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 15: and death, and the end result to that could just 732 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 15: be even worse, in which the Russia could eventually take 733 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 15: more land if they really wanted to. They have the 734 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:21,439 Speaker 15: ability to a trit Ukrainian forces through manpower and resources, 735 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,320 Speaker 15: way longer than Ukraine can withstand. 736 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 2: Its Napoleon said, quantity has a quality all its own, 737 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,720 Speaker 2: and we're seeing that now. Okay, Thomas, let's talk about 738 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 2: your PM Starmer. He's in the United States of America 739 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 2: today doing the whole glad hand thing. 740 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 1: Trump. Trump, It's so nice to meet you. 741 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,280 Speaker 2: But the United States of America has been very vocal recently, 742 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,439 Speaker 2: especially JD. Van It's about some of the oppression going 743 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 2: on inside the UK, which it's really bad. You see 744 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 2: police officers arresting people for Facebook posts and you say 745 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 2: to yourself, Man, is this the same UK we used 746 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 2: to be friends with? 747 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: How does this work? Yeah, it's a shame. 748 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,240 Speaker 14: You know. I'm very grateful that I moved to the US. 749 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 14: I'm nervous every time I land back in England. I 750 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,320 Speaker 14: think they're going to come and get me the hate speech. 751 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 14: But you know, it's a sad state and it's interesting 752 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 14: to see what happens in the meeting. I think what 753 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 14: we saw with Matt Cron was interesting. He was love 754 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 14: bombing the president. You know, he was saying, oh, Donald, 755 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 14: You're so great, we love you. Starmar can't do that. 756 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,240 Speaker 14: He's a socialist. He's been elected by socialists in our country, 757 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 14: so if he came in and started doing that, he'd 758 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 14: be a laughing stock back in England. So he's got 759 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,280 Speaker 14: a fine line to play, and I think the President 760 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 14: is not going to be too happy with him, especially 761 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:31,760 Speaker 14: with some of the things he's said in the past. 762 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 14: So yeah, you know, the special relationship is pretty much 763 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 14: as dead as it's ever been, which is such a 764 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,760 Speaker 14: shame because we've never had a more pro British president. 765 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: You know, the President's mother is. 766 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 14: Scottish, he loves the UK, he loved the Queen, and 767 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 14: the fact is it was our deep state that refused 768 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 14: to engage with him in the first term, and now 769 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 14: is realizing actually we need to take this guy seriously, 770 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 14: but it's a bit too late. 771 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is a crying shame. 772 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 2: Okay, Wade wrapping this thing up here look slight. The 773 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 2: cleanout has at least begun in our military. They have 774 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,760 Speaker 2: a long way to go. We got a new Chairman 775 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 2: of the Joint Chiefs. They're slowly but surely working their 776 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,760 Speaker 2: way through this pool of loser generals. 777 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: We have, what's say you so far? 778 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 15: I think the DoD is moving in the right direction. 779 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: We worked for the last two years. 780 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 15: And by we, I don't mean DD I'm not at DoD, 781 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 15: but a group of conservatives here in DC. When Senator 782 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:27,000 Speaker 15: Tubberville put the holds on those military nominations over their 783 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 15: abortion policy, a group of us started working to create 784 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 15: dossier's on woke radical generals, and we handed over all 785 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 15: of those materials. 786 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: We urge caution to double check our work. 787 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 15: We don't want to make sure that a good general 788 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,839 Speaker 15: isn't being thrown under the bus, that the allegations are fair, 789 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:48,720 Speaker 15: that there isn't some mitigating circumstance or explanation. And everything 790 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 15: that I can tell is that they took that in 791 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 15: good stride and have been serious about it.
