I have my 2 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: friend here who has recently written a book, and I 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: love when he writes books because they're very easy to read, 4 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: very easy to understand, but also very convicting. And so 5 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,479 Speaker 1: I am excited to have Ned Ryan with me. He 6 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: is the founder and CEO of American Majority and Voter Gravity, 7 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: as well as the author of several books, that includes 8 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: his latest, which is American Leviathan, The Birth of the 9 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: Administrative State and Progressive Authoritarianism. Ned thank you for joining me. 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 2: Absolutely too great to be with you. 11 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, when I read this, I'm not kidding 12 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: about it being convicting, but also even more so, I 13 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 1: think I read this and I was like, man, I 14 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: was that person who ran for office thinking that we 15 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: were still in the situation where good people can run 16 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: for office and you are being elected by the people 17 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: and you serve the people, you don't serve the administrative state. 18 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: I'm reading that. As I ran, I was like, man, 19 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: this is really messed up. How this is the behind 20 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: the scenes is highly disturbing, and if you haven't done it. 21 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: I watch people who are critical of people running for office, like, oh, 22 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: you should it in this that you should did in that, 23 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 1: and I'm like, try and try doing this. 24 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 3: This is so I'm glad you read it. This is 25 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 3: something that I've kind of talked about, thought about for 26 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 3: a while, and wanted to really show the American people 27 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 3: in as approachable a way as possible the reality of 28 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 3: what is. I think we've been living a bit of 29 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 3: a lie and an illusion that we're still constitution republic. 30 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: I think, in fact, how DC and many state capitals 31 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 3: operate is in fact an administrative state that progressive set 32 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 3: in motion over one hundred years ago with the overt 33 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 3: purpose Tutor, and this I cannot stress this enough. Progressives 34 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 3: hate the Constitution. The whole entire point of the progressive 35 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: movement was to annihilate the political and moral authority of 36 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 3: the US Constitution, and the progressive movement set out to 37 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 3: destroy the machinery of the republic. And by that I 38 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: mean the diffusion of power, the separation of powers, which 39 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 3: is an absolutely vital part. I would say, it's the 40 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 3: essence of our constitution. And they hated all of those things, 41 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 3: and more importantly, Tutor, progressives hate the idea of a 42 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 3: rights based government. And what do I mean by that, Well, 43 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 3: we believe that all men are created equal, they are 44 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 3: endowed by their creator with certain unbitable rights, that among 45 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 3: these are life, liberty in the pursuit of happiness. That 46 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 3: to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men. Governments 47 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 3: are instituted to secure those rights and take none of 48 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 3: them away. Progressives hated that idea, and they hated that 49 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,119 Speaker 3: idea because they felt that the states should subsume everything. 50 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 3: It should subsume corporations, individuals, individual rights. Because the whole 51 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 3: idea of the administrative state, this massive bureaucracy, separate from accountability, 52 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 3: political accountability, quite frankly separated from the American people, was 53 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 3: to consolidate power so that we might achieve progress, we 54 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 3: might achieve the perfection of mankind. Well, in that process, 55 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 3: you can't have individuals claiming their rights against government, because 56 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 3: that would throw the proverbial monkey wrench stand in the 57 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: gears and slow down progress. So you have to consolidate 58 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 3: power for efficiency to achieve progress. And you have to 59 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 3: remove the idea that individuals have rights because that would 60 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 3: also slow down progress. So how they envisioned it that 61 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 3: the state would give rights back to the individual or 62 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 3: corporations if it deemed it beneficial to the state. 63 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, this is exactly what we're hearing today. 64 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: But I'm going to plug Hillsdale for a minute, because 65 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: Hillsdale is offering these free courses, and so they talked 66 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: to me and they were like, we'd love to have 67 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: you take some of these courses, and I got I 68 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: took one, and then I was just like, I've got 69 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: I'm kind of in this motive. I have to learn more. 70 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: I have to I'm like hungry for actually learning. And 71 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: so I started in on their civil rights course, and 72 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: it was amazing to learn how early on this rebellion 73 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: started because even the Southern states were trying to say 74 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: because they were so afraid of losing slavery, because there 75 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: is such an obsession over control, they were saying, the 76 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: First Amendment doesn't apply here, you're actually not allowed to 77 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,799 Speaker 1: talk about these things. And then, I mean, even your 78 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: book is pointing out how early on people were like, 79 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: you know what, the government's going to help fix this. 80 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 3: Rights are more of a series of suggestions than actual guarantee. 81 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 3: I mean, this is so let me explain that a 82 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 3: little bit more. Our founders believed again a creator gave 83 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 3: us on a label rights and that's why. 84 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 2: The revolution was fought. 85 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 3: I write about some of this in Restoring Our Republic, 86 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 3: my first book, and kind of hit some of those 87 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: themes in the second book. The adversaries that they were 88 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 3: not fighting for economic freedom for sale, though that kind 89 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 3: of was part of the situation. They were fighting for 90 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 3: their rights to actually self govern. They were fighting to 91 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 3: protect their rights as individuals, and they believe that it 92 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 3: was incumbent upon them because the God that gave them 93 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 3: their rights actually expected and demanded of them to defend 94 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 3: those rights, to treat that gifts as sacracaying. And out 95 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 3: of that came their vision and ideology that these rights, 96 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 3: which no earthly power gave, no earthly power can take away. 97 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 3: So we have to put in place a government in 98 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 3: which we are realistic about human nature. And this is 99 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 3: the one thing that our founders got right that progressives 100 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 3: completely got wrong. 101 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:32,799 Speaker 2: Human nature. 102 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 3: Our founders believe that we are imperfect human beings in 103 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 3: an imperfect world, that we have been given incredible rights 104 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 3: by our creator. But because of our imperfect nature, in 105 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: which we do often do what we can, not what 106 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 3: we should, we should never be trusted with consolidated power, 107 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 3: and they didn't even trust themselves. By the way, Tutor, 108 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 3: I write about this again in Restoring Our Republic. They're 109 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 3: sitting in Philadelphia in seventeen eighty seven. 110 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 2: These guys knew they. 111 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 3: Were going to be the future presidents and the vice 112 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 3: presidents and that representatives and the senators and the judges. 113 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 3: You're sitting in that room, do you go, I want 114 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: to make sure that I'm always in control? Or am 115 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 3: I going to put in place a system of government 116 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,559 Speaker 3: that actually makes it harder for me to achieve power 117 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,679 Speaker 3: and keep it. And they worked against their own interests 118 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 3: and they put in place a diffusion of power, separation 119 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 3: of powers because they didn't even trust themselves. 120 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 2: I will own human nature. 121 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: I always tell the people around me. And I have 122 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: never said this on this podcast. But when I was first, 123 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: I hadn't announced yet, and I was just talking about 124 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: running and I was talking to one of our elected 125 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: officials in Michigan government about this. And you know, I 126 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: think most people when you first talk about this, like 127 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: you have no idea what you're talking about. And so 128 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: we talked and we talked, and then as I got 129 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: to the door to walk out, he said don't let 130 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: it seduce you. Yeah, And I remember thinking that's a 131 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: gross comment, But now it plays over in my head 132 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: all the time because I see it. It is people. 133 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 3: Power is a power, powerful drug that most human beings 134 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 3: have an inability to resist. And the founders knew that 135 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: they didn't trust human nature, and that would be a 136 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 3: really good place for us to get back to. Because so, 137 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: let me also explain. The declaries of Independence and the 138 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: Constitution codified what was a common set of ideals and 139 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 3: beliefs at the time. People don't really think about this. 140 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 3: They go, well, where did the Declaration of Independence come from? 141 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: Where did the Constitution come from? It didn't come from 142 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: thin air. It codified what they believed, and they truly 143 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 3: believed this world view right where do rights come from? 144 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 3: Was the purpose of government and that's what they wanted 145 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 3: to put in place, and that's what they did. They 146 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 3: gave us the greatest political documents the world has ever seen. 147 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 3: Progressives hated every last bit of that because they were 148 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 3: utopian status. They actually bought into the philosophy of a 149 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 3: Prussian propagandist, gay Org Hegel, who would write in the 150 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 3: eighteen hundred that the state is the march of God 151 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: on earth. The state decides what is objective truth, it 152 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 3: decides what is science. It decides all of these things. 153 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 3: And out of the power of the state comes everything 154 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 3: that will be considered a benefit to society. That's why 155 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 3: we have to have a massive bureaucracy filled with the 156 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 3: educated elite who will be the oracles of God to 157 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,679 Speaker 3: the dirty little peasants to tell them how they should 158 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 3: live so they might be perfected and tutor. 159 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 2: This is the other thing. 160 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 3: When you read the writings of progressives back in the day, 161 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 3: you feel like you're reading the rantings of diluted madmen 162 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 3: who are detached from reality and the empirical evidence of 163 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 3: millennia about human nature. 164 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: They trust themselves. 165 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: That's what I was going to say. That's the difference. 166 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: If you look and having come out of the world 167 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: of manufacturing, in business ownership, if you look at the founders, 168 00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: you see inventors. You see people who were trying to 169 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: to innovate. You see people who were warriors, who were soldiers. 170 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: You see people who were business owners and people who 171 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: had fought against the crown, people who understood what it 172 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: was like to try to make it on their own, 173 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: and they said, we're not going to We're not going 174 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: to give away all of our stuff to everybody else. 175 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 1: This is about each individual, each individual. But if you 176 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: look you're right, if you look back at the writings 177 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: marks all of these people, they were just thinkers, just 178 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: wealthy thinkers. 179 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 2: They were detached from reality. 180 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 3: So but going back to what you were saying about 181 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 3: the Founders, I want to be very clear on this 182 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 3: front because it really applies to what we're experiencing today. 183 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 3: Our founders were fighting against an authoritarian form of government. 184 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 3: That's why they fought the revolution and I called actually 185 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: the American Restoration because you look back at their writings 186 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 3: why they were fighting. We want our rights restored. The 187 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 3: British empires decided that even those rights that were sented 188 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 3: to by kings, by parliament kind of more series of 189 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 3: suggestions now decided that we're going to completely change this. 190 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 2: You will do. 191 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 3: Exactly what we say. We will demand the supremacy of 192 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 3: parliament over your lives, even though you don't have representation. 193 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 3: And oh, by the way, we think you're a backwater 194 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 3: sinkhole of prejudice and hatred because of your idea of 195 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 3: inherent natural rights and this idea of covenance and idea 196 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 3: of a constitution, So you're going to do what we 197 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: say or else. Think about where we are today, Tutor, 198 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 3: this so educated elite, which I call a credentialed idiocracy, 199 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 3: looks at us who believe in this idea of natural 200 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 3: inherent rights of a constitution of covenance. You are backwards, 201 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 3: full of hatred and prejudice. And all we're sitting here 202 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 3: is going we want our rights restored. We want our 203 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 3: rights restored via a real constitution, republic. And again, in 204 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 3: a republic, all power flows from the people to their 205 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: duly elected representatives, elected representatives who they make stewards of 206 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 3: the power and money given to them to set up 207 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 3: a government that actually benefits, promotes, and defends the interests 208 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 3: of the American people. That's but where we're at right 209 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 3: now is you have an administrative state filled with unelected 210 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 3: bureaucrats who are not accountable to the American people. They're 211 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 3: not accountable to our duly elected representatives who have basically 212 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 3: decided we're the ones. 213 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 2: In charge, you will do what we say. For example, Fauci. 214 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 3: I talk about Fauci in this whole ridiculous incident that 215 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 3: we went through with COVID, credentialed idiocricy. Mask, no mask, 216 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 3: Get a vaccine which wasn't a vaccine by the way, Get. 217 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: A second shot, Get boosters. You won't get it. Oh 218 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 2: you did get it. 219 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 3: What are we even doing this credentialed idiocracy. The premise 220 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 3: of the administrative state was somehow it would be an 221 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 3: enlightened rational state. All we have now are these powerful 222 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,719 Speaker 3: credentialed idiots who are dictating to society and damaging us, 223 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 3: destroying our freedom. And I make the argument too too 224 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 3: in this the greatest threat to our freedoms and to 225 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 3: our civil liberties is a powerful UNAEIS bureaucracy. The administrative 226 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 3: state doesn't care about our rights, doesn't care about the 227 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 3: American people, actually views us more as an ATM to 228 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 3: fund their priorities, and anything that might be a benefit 229 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 3: to us as an afterthought. 230 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: So I think the book is so important because people 231 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: for so long have talked about the deep state, and 232 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: I think the deep state became a name that people 233 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: didn't fully understand. And as and you comment or you 234 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 1: point out in the book, you know you've always been 235 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: in the position where if you didn't like who you 236 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: had in this country, you could vote the mount and 237 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: you could get someone new. You have what two years, 238 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: every two years, every six years, you can get new 239 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: people that are representing you. Now in Michigan, I think 240 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: we've had kind of one of the best examples of 241 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: the administrative state because we put in term limits for 242 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: our people, and so they were at the point where 243 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: they were getting rushed. But by the time they knew 244 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: what they were being used, they were out of there. 245 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 1: And so the people that are the bureaucracy, the bureaucrats 246 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: that work there, they stay and they're like, you've got 247 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: to pass this bill, and you've got to pass this bill. 248 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: It's no longer representing the people. It's representing the bureaucracy 249 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: who's been there, and they can manipulate these twenty three 250 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: year old kids that come into the legislature, and that's 251 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: who we are getting. Oftentimes it's not a high paid job, 252 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: but it's a full time job. The people around them 253 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 1: are like, ha haha, let me see what I can 254 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: do with you. Let me convince you you're oppressed. You 255 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: can change it. You could change the oppression. 256 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: I write in the book that in many ways elections 257 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: are an opiate of the masses. Elections come and go, 258 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 3: administrations come and go, the state remains, and so we 259 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 3: have to ask ourselves, do we really want to have 260 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 3: elections in which this was Donald Trump's greatest cent in 261 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 3: the eyes of permanent DC, the administrative state, do the 262 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: elected representative American people. 263 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 2: He shows up in. 264 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: DC goes I'm the one who decides both foreign and 265 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 3: domestic policy. 266 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 2: They're like, yeah, we don't think so. 267 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no, Actually, as a republic, I'm the one 268 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 3: who decides, like, yeah, that's not how it works. Really, 269 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 3: And for that for the temerity to say, as the 270 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 3: duly elected president of the United States, I'm the one 271 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 3: who decides. Trump was treated as a traitor to his 272 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 3: country and they had a slow moving coup against him 273 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 3: for his entire four years because he thought we were 274 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: still a republic. And so people ask, what's going on 275 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 3: in DC need, Well, that's what you're seeing. You're seeing 276 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 3: two very different competing governing philosophies that the great outsider, 277 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 3: Donald J. Trump brought to the surface because he was 278 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 3: operating under a certain worldview in a certain way that 279 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 3: the government's supposed to work. And then the reality of 280 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 3: what is you're seeing a clash of governing philosophies, and 281 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 3: that's I mean, they're oil and water, never going. 282 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: There's not a party exempt from this. Because the perfect 283 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: example is right now, if you are looking at Washington, 284 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: d C. There is no president. There is no president 285 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: of the United States. He is not in there, he 286 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: is not mentally capable of doing this. And yet there's 287 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: no one setting off our alarm bells. There's no one, 288 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: no Republican freaking out and going, oh my gosh, we 289 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: have no leader. They're like, oh, it's okay. The train 290 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: keeps rolling because it's the people around him that do it. 291 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 3: The last two Republican presidents that rejected the premise that 292 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 3: the administrative state was legitimate before Donald J. Trump, Richard 293 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 3: Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Every president in the White House 294 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 3: since Reagan until Donald Trump showed up, including George H. W. 295 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 2: Bush. George W. 296 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 3: Bush, accepted the legitimacy of the administrative state. They accepted 297 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 3: the premise that it was somehow a legitimate form of 298 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 3: government that somehow worked for our republic, when in fact 299 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 3: it didn't. This is where again, if Trump wins, and 300 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 3: I'm pretty optimistic that he will win, it's going to 301 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 3: be close. 302 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: It's going to be it's going to be a dogfight. 303 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 2: Day one. 304 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 3: He has to announce I am going to break apart 305 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 3: and dismantle the administrative state. And he can do this too. 306 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 3: This is the thing that people need to understand when 307 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 3: I talk about the administrative state in the deep state. 308 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 3: The administrative state is this massive, sprawling bureaucracy. You've got 309 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 3: the surveillance state, the deep state, right, the fbiicia NSA, right, 310 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 3: very powerful, very dangerous. You've got the regulatory state. And 311 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 3: you know this having been in manufacturing and business. The 312 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 3: regulatory state, I think is a threat to our economic freedom. 313 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 3: It is a threat to our national security because of 314 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 3: everything that it does to damage our our manufacturing of 315 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 3: and vital important things on shore and also slowing down. 316 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 3: I was reading something on elon mus x feed about 317 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 3: delay of sixty months on something he's doing because of regulators. Okay, 318 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 3: so this slows us down our. 319 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: Whole host Let me let me I'll just put one 320 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: comment in there. Y. I talked to a guy two 321 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: days ago who said that they changed the standards on 322 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: the machines that he was using for everything he makes 323 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: in aerospace, and he said they kid The government literally 324 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: walked in my doors and said, you have to scrap 325 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: thirty six machines forty five thousand dollars apiece. No choice, 326 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: he said, I went broke. And he said, I have 327 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: just started to pay off the new machines, because what 328 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: choice do I have. This is what I know, this 329 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 1: is my business. The government walked in his door and said, 330 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: you don't meet this speck anymore. He said that the 331 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: electrical difference in the two machines was non existence. He 332 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: said one was a wave and one was a straight line. 333 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 1: And they said, we don't go with the one anymore. 334 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 1: You have to go with this one. He said, it 335 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: made no difference, what no safety difference? 336 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 3: Nothing think about though, again going back to progressives believe 337 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 3: that the state is a living organism that subsumes all 338 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 3: the rights of corporations and individuals. So again, this is 339 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 3: kind of an age old struggle. I make the point 340 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 3: at the end, is an age old struggle that takes 341 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 3: place between the state for man or man for the state. 342 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 3: We're just the most recent battlefield in this struggle. Does 343 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 3: the government actually secure our rights and take none of 344 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 3: them away and actually benefit the people, or does the 345 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 3: state rule us and dictate to us on all aspects 346 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 3: of life, and that's what they want. 347 00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: Well, yes, Kis. 348 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 3: Here's another The progressives view the state of salvation right, So, 349 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 3: why would you ever want to limit salvation? Salvation should 350 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 3: be in aspect of our lives. It should be in 351 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 3: business and manufacturing, and health and education, all these different aspects. 352 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 3: And even more so, it's almost like a test. Do 353 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 3: you want salvation for your life? 354 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 2: Tutor? 355 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 3: Sure, well, then why would you ever limit it? That's 356 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 3: why people go, why does government continue to grow? Why 357 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 3: does government debt continue to grow? Why are they talking 358 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 3: about eighty seven thousand new IRS agents to hoover up 359 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 3: the six hundred dollars PayPal transactions? Because you have to. 360 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 3: You have to fund salvation, Tutor, and there will be 361 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 3: no into salvation. Therefore, there'll be no into government growth, 362 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,880 Speaker 3: There'll be no end too. You actually funding your salvation. 363 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 3: That's how progressives think. 364 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on 365 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:52,239 Speaker 1: a Tutor Dixon podcast. This is what is passing in 366 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: Michigan and it goes into effect in February. This is 367 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: the breakdown of the free market. Our businesses now are 368 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,959 Speaker 1: required by law to give six or eight days of 369 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: paid sick leave one of the two they're required to 370 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: give that they're required to give a certain amount of 371 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: vacation that rolls over. You can never lose your vacation. 372 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 1: You now have a requirement that all vacation rolls over, 373 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 1: and you have up to three years to sue your 374 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: former employer after you leave if you feel like you 375 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: were robbed of some of that vacation or sick time. 376 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: And our businesses are like, who would work here? And 377 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: the crazy part about it is we are in an 378 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: employees market right now. If the employee doesn't like the job, 379 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: they can go down the street because everybody is looking 380 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: for workers. How can you go into a company and 381 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: say you have to run your HR department this way? 382 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: How is this possible? 383 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 3: I like to bureaucrats tinkering with the free market and 384 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 3: capitalism is how you destroy it. They have no idea. 385 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 3: I mean, this is this is the Biden Harris administration 386 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 3: the last four years. They have no idea how the 387 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 3: economy works. They have no idea how inflation works. And 388 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: they're sitting there tinkering with it, trying to dictate people 389 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 3: that have no idea how any of this works and 390 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 3: annihilating the economy, bringing about massive inflations because they don't 391 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 3: really know what they're doing. And this is again the farce. 392 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 3: This is the farce of the administrative state. 393 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:16,199 Speaker 2: Tutor. 394 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 3: It was promised to the American people at the birth 395 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 3: of the administrative state that these would be educated elite 396 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 3: that applied science would bring us to the place of perfection. 397 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 3: These people don't know what they're doing, They have no idea. 398 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 3: But the problem that we have in this country today 399 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 3: is they're extremely powerful. And that's why, you know, I 400 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 3: say at the end of the book, Donald Trump will 401 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 3: hopefully declare war on the administrative state. He has to 402 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 3: understand that the foundation of the swamp is the state. 403 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: Break the state, drain the swamp, restore the republic. Simple 404 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 3: to say that it will be monumental an application. 405 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: The most successful business owners that I met, for the 406 00:20:55,200 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: most part in Michigan were not the ivy league. They 407 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 1: were the people who busted their tails. They understood it. 408 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: They were not educated. They were educated in street smarts. 409 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: You know, they'd be like, I was more street smart 410 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: than I was book smart. But I knew if I 411 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 1: kept pushing here and here and I will say that. 412 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: I spoke with one of our biggest companies yesterday and 413 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: I said, you know, we have this fund where we 414 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: give all this money to the big three every year. 415 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: And he was like, what do you mean, and I said, well, 416 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 1: you know the automotive industry. They always take hundreds of 417 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: millions of dollars out of this fund and promise us jobs, 418 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: and we never get jobs, and they have layoffs. And 419 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: he said, how much money are they getting And he said, 420 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: I've never taken a single dollar from the state. He said, 421 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: to be honest, I won't because I don't want them 422 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: coming in and telling me how to run my business. 423 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: And I said, but think about that. We are complaining 424 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: about ev mandates right now and we think it's the 425 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: government forcing the automotive industry to take it. But it's 426 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: a partnership because they've already been bought by the government. 427 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 1: They make massive amounts of money, and yet we pay 428 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: them hundreds of millions every year. 429 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 3: So one of the founders of the progressive movement was 430 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 3: a man by the name of Herbert Crowley, not as 431 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 3: well known as some of the others like Woodrow Wilson 432 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 3: or Theodore Roosevelt. When he started proposing some of his 433 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 3: ideas in early nineteen hundreds, his critics said, you're basically 434 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 3: arguing for fascism and authoritarianism because of the fusion of 435 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 3: the states and corporations. So think about that. Think about 436 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 3: where we are today, big corporations, big tech, big government. 437 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 3: You think what is going on, Well, that's the whole 438 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 3: point of the administrative state, was the fusion of all 439 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 3: of these to be working together. That was the whole 440 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,959 Speaker 3: goal the whole time with the administrative state and progressives, 441 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 3: that they were going to fuse all of these entities 442 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 3: into one massive power again first of all to control 443 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,719 Speaker 3: the country and then dictate to the American people. This 444 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 3: is how it's going to work. So none of this 445 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 3: should be surprising. I hope when people read the book, 446 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 3: it's illuminating. It's a moment of clarity. None of this 447 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:59,239 Speaker 3: should be a surprise because progressives were very honest one 448 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: hundred years. 449 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 2: Ago exactly what they set out to. 450 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 3: In fact, Woodrow Wilson said this. It was on a 451 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 3: July fourth speech, ironically, in which he said, we are 452 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 3: not bound to adhere to the ideals of the signs 453 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 3: of the Declaration of Independence. We are as free as 454 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 3: they are to make or unmake governments. They were very 455 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 3: honest about what they had set out to do to 456 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 3: get us to where we are today. So none of 457 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 3: us should be a surprise. We're just living there the 458 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 3: reality of their dreams, and. 459 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: We're one hundred years into it and we haven't really 460 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: all realized it. I think that we are many of 461 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: us don't realize what we're fighting against. And I think 462 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: that Donald Trump was kind of this wake up call 463 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: of wait a minute. He hasn't been a lifelong politician. 464 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: He doesn't come from a family that has been in politics. 465 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: You know, most of if you look, there's been a 466 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: lot of dynasties in the United States still that go 467 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: one person to the next person in that's in state 468 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: government and that's in federal government. And he was outside 469 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: of that. 470 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 2: And he's just. 471 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 3: Very detrimental to the American people, by the way. 472 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and exactly because I think that you get 473 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: so what you're talking about, it becomes normal to these people, 474 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: and they they continue to go even Republicans people think 475 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: that this is not happening. It's happening on both sides, 476 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: where you continue to go back to that idea of 477 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: control well, if we could just control this and you 478 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: make more agencies, so you have the DNR who suddenly 479 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: is making rules about hunting and then turn into laws 480 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: even though they're not laws, but people can get a 481 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: missed demeanor if they break the rule, and then they 482 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 1: can have their guns taken away. It's all crazy. 483 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 3: So, but you're hitting on a theme that I talk 484 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 3: about a little bit in regards to the Chevron doctrine. Yes, yes, yeah, 485 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 3: I'll say this really quick, tutor, when you write a book, 486 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 3: submit it off to the races a few months later, 487 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 3: go darn it. I wish I had actually written about 488 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 3: some other things because I completely missed it. So I'll 489 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 3: talk about one that I did not miss, which is 490 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 3: the Chevron Doctrine, in which this summer the Supreme Court said, 491 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 3: we're overturning that it's been in existence for forty years. 492 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 3: We're no longer going to defer either through the judicial 493 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 3: branch and quite frankly, legislative branch to the statutes and 494 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 3: regulations of the unelected bureaucrats, which has essentially been governing 495 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 3: this country, not like the federal level, but the state 496 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 3: level as well. We're not going to do this anymore 497 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 3: because it's unconstitutional. 498 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 2: It really was. 499 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 3: The I undermined the idea of an independent judiciary, which 500 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 3: was deeply important to our founders. By the way, our 501 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 3: founders deeply resented the British courts who were not fully 502 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 3: independent of the Crown, who are essentially rubber stamping all 503 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 3: of the edicts of King George the Third and his 504 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 3: ministers in Parliament. They said, we're not doing that in 505 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 3: our newly formed republic. We will have an independent judiciary 506 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 3: that will actually be a check on the other two branches. 507 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 3: Chevron deference kind of annihilated that idea. The other thing 508 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 3: that the Supreme Court did this summer that has not 509 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 3: been as recognized was they went after the SEC tribunals, 510 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 3: the Security and Exchange Commission tribunals, and people like what 511 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 3: is this? 512 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 2: Those are the administrative. 513 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 3: Law of tribunals that a lot of departments and agencies 514 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 3: in DCAL when cases come before the SEC. This tribunal 515 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 3: ninety percent of the time rules in favor of the SEC. 516 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 3: It's not an independent judiciary. It's literally the judge, jury 517 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 3: and executioner on behalf of the SEC to enforce with 518 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 3: the bureaucrats at the SEC. One Supreme Court said we're 519 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 3: not doing that anymore. Again, independent judiciary, you can't have 520 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 3: that inside of the Article two executive branch where the 521 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 3: administrative state resides. And oh, by the way, private tribunals 522 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 3: actually annihilate the idea of the Seventh Amendment right to 523 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 3: trial by jury. 524 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 2: But this is what we've. 525 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 3: Been operating under, Tutor. People are under the illusion all 526 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 3: constitutional republic separation of powers. We have the Bill of Rights, 527 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 3: with all of these enumerated rights, we're living in a republic. 528 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 3: The reality that I just explained with the SEC is 529 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty degrees opposite in reality of how 530 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 3: DC works, and that when the first domino was flicked 531 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: over one hundred and ten years ago by progressive system 532 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 3: the administrative state, it was almost inevitable that we would 533 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 3: end up right here and here we are. 534 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: I think for many people these changes, they haven't fully 535 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: felt them, or they haven't understood where they've come from. 536 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: And I think in the last few years, the banning 537 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: gas stoves, suddenly you all have to have new vehicles. 538 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,679 Speaker 1: We're not going to have the same energy. We're going 539 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: to have these gigantic windmills in the across the entire 540 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: all of our farmland. We're going to have these solar panels. 541 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 1: And the thing that makes me crazy about that, and 542 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 1: I'll just say this really quickly. People have heard me 543 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: talk about this before. As a manufacturer. I started looking 544 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 1: into because I don't believe that this is this is different, 545 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 1: and I don't believe that you put you have these 546 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: giant windmills and then you have to bury them in 547 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: the middle of Texas or the middle of Wyoming and 548 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: that's safe. And it turns out that they're filled with 549 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 1: forever chemicals. So you may be fixing one tiny thing 550 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: where you say, okay, now we don't have these greenhouse emissions, 551 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: these greenhouse gases. You're destroying the ocean, You're destroying the land, 552 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 1: you're destroying the watershed. What are you doing? We have 553 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: no consumer Look at what China's done. 554 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,679 Speaker 2: They're des do electric vehicle batteries. What do you do 555 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 2: with those? 556 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: Exactly? 557 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 3: What do you do with those after they don't live 558 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,400 Speaker 3: as they don't last as long as people think they do, 559 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 3: and obviously filled with all kinds of damaging chemicals, what 560 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 3: do you do with those? 561 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: And here's a very little secret. We've never made them 562 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: in the United States. They're building all these factories right now, 563 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: and the factories are incredibly poisonous, and the factories are 564 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: for some reason exempt from environmental review. Why because there 565 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: are lobbyists who say it's okay. 566 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 3: Well, the thing that's scary about this push I consider 567 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 3: climate change of hoax that if you're to go down 568 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 3: this path, ninety five percent of electric vehicle batteries are 569 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 3: made in China. A lot of things that come from 570 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 3: this Green New Deal and climate change. 571 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 2: We've got to. 572 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 3: Have this renewable energy a lot of us produced in China. 573 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 3: So if we were to go down that path and 574 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 3: say we are no longer going to use fossil fuels 575 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 3: because the educated elites and the oracles of the States 576 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 3: have decided this is bad for us, we would actually 577 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 3: put ourselves into a situation where we would be heavily 578 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 3: dependent upon the communist Chinese solitarian state for our energy 579 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 3: needs and providing for this economy, which, by the way, 580 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 3: since i'm on this topic, i'll mention this. Germany tried 581 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 3: to do this. Germany tried to go on the renewable energy. 582 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 3: We're going to actually run our economy off of this 583 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 3: total and complete disaster. You cannot run a first world 584 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 3: economy off renewable energy. 585 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 2: It does not work, it will never work. 586 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: Well, I'm pretty sure I heard Kamala Harris tell me 587 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: that she was going to stop storms in the debate 588 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,239 Speaker 1: the other night, So apparently she's divine as well in 589 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: some your cancer or whatever exactly. But let me fight 590 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: back a little bit on your climate change comment. Not 591 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: specifically about climate change, but as someone who worked in 592 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: a factory, the factories in the United States, there is pollution. 593 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: Pollution does exist, and that does go into the ground, 594 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,239 Speaker 1: and that does affect people, and you do end up 595 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: with full communities that end up with cancer and problems. 596 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: And we have fought so hard against that in the 597 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: United States, and manufacturing has fought hard against it. It's 598 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: been those business owners that have fought to fix this 599 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: and have the cleanest manufacturing in the world. And I 600 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: witnessed it. I saw what it took to stop this, 601 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: to clean it up, to change it. Now we're bringing 602 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: factories in from China and we have no idea what 603 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: they're going to do, and that is real, and that 604 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: is harmful. 605 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 3: This is the one thing I didn't discuss it in 606 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 3: this book, but I've been formulating some of my thoughts 607 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 3: on ethical capitalism, that we should have a free market, 608 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 3: we should have people that are free to actually achieve 609 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 3: their dreams of creating new businesses, the entrepreneurs, all that stuff. 610 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 3: One of the reasons we got the progressive movement and 611 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 3: the administ state was because of unethical corporate behavior with 612 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 3: the railroads and with massive corporations that we're abusing the people, 613 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 3: We're abusing the privilege, if you will. 614 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 2: So in reaction to. 615 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 3: That unethical, hyper aggressive capitalism, you got the progressive movement. 616 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 3: I would call it in many ways corrupt capitalism on 617 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 3: some levels that would do anything and everything to earn 618 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 3: a dime. 619 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 2: That's how you got the progressive movement. 620 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 3: So I think that we on the free market capitalist 621 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 3: side of things have to understand we have rights and 622 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 3: responsibilities to society, to our world to actually do everything 623 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 3: that we can to be successful, while at the same 624 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 3: time being very good stewards of what has been given 625 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 3: to us, whether it's this world, whether it's the community, 626 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 3: whether it's the people that are working for us, and 627 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 3: to try and find that right balance. 628 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I agree, and I think that's something that 629 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: because there's a gray area there. It's been taken advantage 630 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: of by this progression of movement. 631 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 2: And we can not what we should. 632 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, if you can demonize a group, then you 633 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: have the upper hand. As soon as you can put 634 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: somebody into some sort of a racist, oppressive, some sort 635 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: of paint them into a corner in some way, you 636 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: have the upper hand. And the court of public opinion 637 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: is very powerful. 638 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 3: Every status, every authoritarian's atalitarian, wants to dehumanize, subhumanize its 639 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 3: political opposition. There have been hyper cases of it. I 640 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 3: mentioned obviously the man with the funny little mustache who 641 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 3: used that subhuman strategy on the Jews in Germany. But 642 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 3: it's always been a tactic of them to dehumanize their 643 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 3: opposition to then get them to shut up, submit, but 644 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 3: also to the point of you're not really a legitimate 645 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 3: voice in society. This is what concerns me again, all 646 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 3: the TV that I've done over the years and all 647 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 3: the things I've experienced. 648 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 2: Watching what takes place. 649 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 3: This is why you had President Trump almost shot in Butler, Pennsylvania, 650 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 3: because of the dehumanizing tactics that the left has used 651 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 3: to say that Donald Trump and his supporters aren't really 652 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 3: fully responsible citizens of this society. Therefore you can pretty 653 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 3: much do to them whatever you want. We haven't fully 654 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 3: gotten to that stage, just to be clear toutor but 655 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 3: that's where they want us to go, and that's why 656 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 3: they've they've literally done all this stuff to Trump. We 657 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 3: don't know the reality or the facts of what actually 658 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 3: happened in Butler, which is a shame. But the fact 659 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 3: that the climate was created in which someone could actually 660 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 3: try and kill Donald Trump was purposeful. It was intentional. 661 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 3: It's been going on for years. 662 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think having run for office, I realized, wow, 663 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: this is and it doesn't matter what they say. There's 664 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 1: no fighting, there's no legal fight against it. They can 665 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: lie about you, they can say anything they want, and 666 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: you have no legal recourse against all of their lives. 667 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: It's shocking. 668 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 3: Well, speaking of redress of grievances, this is the problem 669 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 3: the administrative state, because they're detached from the American people. 670 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 3: People have no real redress against injustices that are done 671 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,439 Speaker 3: to them. Because again, when you remove and again, only 672 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 3: separation progressives believed in was separating out the administrative state 673 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 3: from any political accountability. Again, people are too and the 674 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 3: republic have duly elected representatives that are accountable to them. 675 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 3: Progresses want of nothing to do with that. But when 676 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,240 Speaker 3: you separate out those who are doing the true governing 677 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 3: of the country and there's no ability to redress grievances 678 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:34,439 Speaker 3: against them, you end up with authoritarianism in which well 679 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 3: you're going to do it because we say, say, dirty 680 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 3: little peasants, and people are sitting out here going this 681 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,760 Speaker 3: feels like a feudal system. 682 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 2: I allude to this in. 683 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 3: The book The administrative state is really a feudal system 684 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 3: in which the serfs are out here, you better do 685 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 3: what we tell you, and they're going. What is our 686 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 3: right to redress grievances against this system?

I think so 713 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 1: many honestly, here, yes, a double shot of book, and 714 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: it's behind you too. So now it's like no matter 715 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: where you look, you see the book. If you're watching, 716 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: if you're listening, you can go to Rumble and see it. 717 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 1: But honestly, go get the book, because I do think 718 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,439 Speaker 1: that we have so many people right now who are 719 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 1: feeling like, man, we're losing that Republican and you point 720 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: out why, and I think it's important to know the 721 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: why to know how to fix it, because if you 722 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: don't know how it's happening, you really can't fix it. 723 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 3: So people have asked how we're going to address this, 724 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 3: and again it'll be monumental, and Apple, as you alluded to, 725 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 3: has been growing for over one hundred years. I talk 726 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 3: about system dynamics, how reinforcing loops, of which there are 727 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 3: many inside the administrative states, start slowly accelerate, almost like 728 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 3: compounding interest, and before you know it, you have this massive, 729 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 3: powerful leviathan that's been growing for over one hundred years. 730 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 3: So people like, how are you going to actually fix 731 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 3: this net what are some of your solutions? I address 732 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 3: that in the last chapter, but I think there's three 733 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,919 Speaker 3: things that are vital for us ending the administrative state 734 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 3: here in the United states. First of all, a powerful 735 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,760 Speaker 3: executive at the head of the executive branch, Donald J. Trump, 736 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 3: where most of the administrative state resides, saying I'm going 737 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 3: to declare war on the administrative state. And if Congress 738 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 3: continues to beffeckless and weak willed and spineless, I can 739 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 3: still do a lot of damage to devolving and destroying 740 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 3: the administrative state through executive orders, through whole series of 741 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 3: reform items that I've put in that last chapter. 742 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 2: That's step one. 743 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 3: Step two the Supreme Court actually stepping up and saying, 744 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 3: as an independent judiciary who decides this is constitutional or not, 745 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 3: after the Chevron doctrine, after the sec tribunal decisions, the 746 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 3: Supreme Court has to actually step up more into this 747 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 3: situation and go administrative state deeply unconstitutional, continue to chip 748 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 3: away at the foundations of it. But ultimately, at the 749 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 3: end of the day, the way that the administrative state 750 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 3: ends in this country is that the American people become 751 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 3: aware of it, become aware of its abuses, and reject 752 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 3: any and all legitimacy that they claim they have. And 753 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 3: the American people say, this is not legitimate. We want 754 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 3: to republic back. But the only way the American people 755 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,919 Speaker 3: can get to that point his understanding was taking place. 756 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:35,280 Speaker 2: It's one of the reasons I wrote the book. 757 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 3: I tried to make it relatively short, to make it 758 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 3: approachable and as simple as possible for people to understand 759 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 3: what's taking place. It has to be a knowledge of 760 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 3: what is happening before you can come to solutions and 761 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 3: say we do not accept this anymore. So I hope 762 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 3: when people read the book will go, yeah, we're not 763 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 3: doing this anymore. Hopefully Donald Trump, hopefully the Supreme Court, 764 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 3: hopefully more of our duly elected representatives are going to 765 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 3: actually fight for our rights and say we're not going 766 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 3: to accept the aministrative state is legitimate anymore. 767 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, So they better read the book quick. 768 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 2: That's what I would say. 769 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: We're coming up to this election, Okay, so tell them 770 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: where they can get it. 771 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 3: Go to Amazon dot com you can get it. Barnes 772 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 3: and Noble, you can get it. Books a million, I 773 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 3: think there's another couple sites. But I would say, go 774 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 3: to Amazon dot com and order a copy, read the book, become, 775 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 3: hopefully reach a moment of clarity, a moment of illumination 776 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 3: of how this country, how DC is actually working, and 777 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 3: then ask yourself is this really what we want for 778 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 3: ourselves and for future generations, because I would argue the 779 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 3: future happiness of generations depends on what we will do 780 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 3: in this moment in rejecting the premise of the administrative 781 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 3: state and saying no, we want our rights restored, we 782 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 3: want a restoration of the republic. And it's going to 783 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 3: be incumbent upon us this current generation of saying we 784 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 3: will no longer accept this, we demand an into this 785 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 3: because I'm afraid, Tutor, this election right now, if we 786 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,240 Speaker 3: do not successfully get Donald trum back into the White House, 787 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 3: it's going to be very very hard, if almost impossible, 788 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,280 Speaker 3: to get any political power back to restore the Republic. 789 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: I think people think that we have this equal government 790 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: right now half and half, and I don't think that. 791 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 1: I think you're right, they're not realizing what's going on 792 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: behind the scenes. We won't have we won't We will 793 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: struggle to have fair elections, we will struggle to have 794 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 1: one party rulestely. 795 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: I mean, everything is aiming towards that, Tutor. I hope 796 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 2: people are. 797 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 3: My fear is that too many Americans are asleep in 798 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:36,880 Speaker 3: the light. They just continue to go through their day. 799 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 3: They're not fully aware of what's going on. 800 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 2: Very spoiled we are. 801 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 3: We're very apathetic because we've been truly blessed on a 802 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 3: whole host affronts for literally decades generations. They are fully 803 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,800 Speaker 3: intent on one party rule and a one party rule 804 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 3: running the administrative state, absolutely devastating to our freedom and 805 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 3: rights moving forward. We cannot allow them to get to 806 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 3: that point. 807 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, Well, that means a lot more people 808 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: have to go through it.
