12
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: lot going on today. The day began a little bumpy.

13
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: There was supposed to be a ceasefire where we were

14
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: waking up to you I ron at Israel, designed to

15
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: misba for a little bit. But after the President well

16
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: had a few moments of stern words, even an F

17
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: bomb on television, you know, up, it quieted down and

18
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: right now this evening, both sides are behaving and there

19
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: is no missiles flying, no serious violence going on between

20
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: Iron and Israel, and major achievement for the Trump administration,

21
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: Will it hold and what comes next? We're going to

22
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: tackle all of that later in the show. I want

23
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,559
Speaker 1: to turn to another breaking news story. It just moved

24
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: about five minutes ago on justinnews dot com. FBI Director

25
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: Cash Btel and Deputy Director Dan Bogino reacted today to

26
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 1: a story we broke here on the show a week ago.

27
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: It was exactly a week ago today we broke the

28
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 1: story that the FBI had in twenty twenty significant intelligence

29
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: showing that China may have been trying to hijack the

30
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: twenty twenty election interfere try to help Joe Biden get

31
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: elected by using fake driver's licenses to get Chinese residents

32
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: on usoil to FA file fake mail in ballots during

33
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election, all for Joe Biden. Now, we

34
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: gave you that story, We told you what was in it.

35
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 1: He actually gave you the text of the intelligence report

36
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: because we obtained it today. Director Patel and Deputy Director

37
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: Bongino said, based on the evidence that they have investigated

38
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: in the week since that memo became public, it is

39
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: clear that the prior leadership of the FBI that is

40
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: under Chris Ray played politics and intentionally kept from the

41
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: American public a significant piece of evidence of potential meddling

42
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty election. I listen, doesn't mean that

43
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: China swung the election. It doesn't mean they tried in.

44
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: The American public needed to be told that why because

45
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: we were told repeatedly during the twenty twenty election there

46
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: was no foreign interference. There were, in fact two foreign interferences.

47
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,119
Speaker 1: Now we know about Iran. Two Iranians have been indicted

48
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: for meddling in the election and breaking into voter databases,

49
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 1: and now we know this Chinese plot. Very strong statement

50
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: from cash Ptel Dan Bongino reacting to our reporting, also

51
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: committing to Senator Chuck rasseing the Judiciary Committee chairman, they

52
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: will make this evidence public and also to Congress, including

53
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: how far the cover up went. Going to get you

54
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: more of that as the night goes on. But those

55
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: comments just given to Justin News.

56
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 2: It's up on there. Go check out the big story, man.

57
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 2: A good time to bring you in.

58
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: A lot going on today beyond just the incredible events

59
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: in the Middle East and Natom.

60
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, an amazing job on that reporting, by the way,

61
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 3: because I remember the Chris is Krebs and Ray also

62
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,119
Speaker 3: both saying that it was a very nothing.

63
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 4: Here, all right, so something else.

64
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 3: It was of a focus up on Capitol Hill today impeachment.

65
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 3: Yes again, it's not twenty twenty one, it's not twenty

66
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 3: twenty yep, all over again, but it was far less

67
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: dramatic than it was the last two times when Washington

68
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 3: was focused on it. A few Democrats here on Capitol

69
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 3: Hill have been looking at another attempt to impeach President Trump,

70
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: and a resolution was introduced by Democrat Congressman Al Green

71
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: of Texas, the same Al Green who got kicked out

72
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: of President Trump's joint addressed to Congress a few months

73
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 3: ago for standing up and refusing to stop interrupting the president.

74
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 3: And this time the vote to move ahead was not

75
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 3: at all close, with it getting tabled by a vote

76
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 3: of three hundred and forty four to seventy nine. And

77
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 3: what's interesting is that this time around, a lot of

78
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 3: Democrats voted to table at too. In fact, a majority

79
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 3: of the House Democrats did. The final vote among Democrats

80
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 3: ended up being one hundred and twenty eight to seventy nine,

81
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 3: and it included the House Minority Leader Hockem Jeffrey, So

82
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 3: it seems that the left doesn't want to see impeachment

83
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 3: because it's not necessarily a winning strategy, at least not

84
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 3: for now.

85
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 5: John.

86
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 4: Give it some time, though.

87
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 3: But we are also quickly approaching the July fourth deadline.

88
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 3: President Trump set for the big beautiful bill to be passed,

89
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 3: and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett sounded pretty uppy when he

90
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 3: was asked, if it can get done, check it out.

91
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 6: I had a very successful lunch meeting with the Senators.

92
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 6: I think that we are on track for a hopefully

93
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 6: for a vote this Friday for July fourth, for the

94
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 6: tax bill. President is doing peace deals, tax deals, trade deals,

95
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 6: so you've done a peace steel I think we'd have

96
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 6: the tax de ill done by July fourth, and then

97
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 6: we can finish with the trade deals.

98
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 3: I don't normally promote buying things from China, but on

99
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 3: July fourth, I want to see fireworks made in China,

100
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 3: not fireworks up on Capitol Hill made by members of Congress.

101
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 2: There you go.

102
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: Now, a lot of history is going to play out

103
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: over the next ten days. Senators and House members not

104
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: getting to leave for the July fourth holiday, and do

105
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: they do the Americans people business now We're lucky to

106
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: be joined by someone at the top of the show

107
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: who showed America how you balance a budget, how you

108
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: fiscally and responsibly manage tax dollars. He was for a

109
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 1: long time the chief financial officer of the great State

110
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: of Florida. Now he's one of the newest members of Congress.

111
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: Congressman Jimmy bertonis he joins us not live now, Congressman.

112
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 7: Good to have you on, sir, Thanks for having me.

113
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 7: I got to tell you, Amanda, that was a great

114
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 7: fireworks line.

115
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 5: Oh thank you.

116
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 4: Listen.

117
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 3: I just happened to know that the Chinese are great

118
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 3: pyro engineers and they have the best Can I say.

119
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 8: Look, I don't want to see the fireworks and Washington

120
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 8: d C. Either.

121
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 7: Look, the American public spoke loud and clear this past November.

122
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 7: The campaign promises that the president won a resounding victory

123
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 7: with or exactly what we're charged to do. And look,

124
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 7: we passed out of the House by one slim vote.

125
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 7: I wish we had more on board, but it's tight

126
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 7: up here right now. The Senate is working hard. I

127
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 7: hope the Senate sees the light of how important this

128
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 7: is to the American public. They deserve hard work, and

129
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 7: this is exactly what the House representative is intended on doing.

130
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, so very important, sir.

131
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: When you look out at what the Senate has done,

132
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't have a total visibility yet, it

133
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: seems like some things are going to get cut down,

134
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: maybe the salt tax deduction and things like that. Give

135
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: us your sense of what you expect might come back

136
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 1: from the Senate, just based on your conversations with colleagues.

137
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 7: Well, you know, there's some common sense work requirements that

138
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 7: the House put in place, whether it be work requirement

139
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 7: for snap benefits, work requirements for Medicaid access to Medicaid benefits.

140
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 7: Medicaid was built to be for those who who could

141
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 7: least access health insurance, so the disabled, the elderly, women,

142
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 7: and children.

143
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 8: So I mean, I just.

144
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 7: Hope that the Senate does not lose sight that we've

145
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 7: got a country that we had to keep financially and

146
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 7: fiscally healthy. And some of these measures are not bad polomies.

147
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 7: They're really measures that ensure that those benefits are there

148
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 7: who truly need them the most. And when we allow

149
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 7: the fraud, waste, and abuse that exists in certain parts

150
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 7: of New York and California. Namely, we've got to curb

151
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 7: and reel that in so we can assure medicaid is

152
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 7: here for generations to come.

153
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 2: Important stuff, sir.

154
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 3: Starting on Sunday, after we all woke up and learned

155
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 3: these attacks, Saturday night, chicken littles, especially Democrats were saying,

156
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 3: oh my gosh, fuel prices, gas prices are going to

157
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 3: go through the roof. I had to keep reminding people

158
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 3: that this is the president of drill baby, drill, frack baby, frack,

159
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 3: mind baby mine. Within the one big beautiful bill, what

160
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 3: type of energy provisions are in there that help further

161
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 3: the President's agenda on making us, you know, energy independent again.

162
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:12,239
Speaker 8: Well again.

163
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 7: I think everything that the President has done, especially with

164
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 7: extending the Trump tax cuts, or what are going to

165
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 7: encourage the type of small business and investment that is

166
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 7: needed in order to strengthen and bring our comedy back

167
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 7: to those twenty nineteen levels. I think the President literally,

168
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 7: I think he goes to bed sometimes tonight and he

169
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 7: dreams about how great things were in twenty nineteen, and

170
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 7: you think about this dark chapter. With what COVID did

171
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 7: in twenty twenty, you know, we can get back to

172
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 7: twenty nineteen levels. But it takes consumer confidence, it takes

173
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 7: a strong leader in the White House, it takes a

174
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 7: stability around the world. And this is what President Trump

175
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 7: has done, at least in my opinion, in his first

176
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 7: term of office. Now in his second term, the first

177
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 7: first start of second.

178
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 2: Term, yeah, so important.

179
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: Another place for the president is changing the dynamic is

180
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: with transparency. We're learning how many truths we were denied

181
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 1: during the Biden years. Two things have come out in

182
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: the last week. Both the just the news, first that

183
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: the DIA had determined in June of twenty twenty, just

184
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: three months into the pandemic, that the virus was most

185
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: likely manufactured at the Muhan lab that was kept from

186
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: not only the American public, but most of their sister

187
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: intelligence agencies.

188
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 2: And then today.

189
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 1: The FBI director saying by the bureau under prior leaders

190
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: intentionally kept the American people dark about this plot by

191
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: China to try to interfere in the election. Doesn't mean

192
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: they swung the election, but they certainly tried with this

193
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: mail in ballot scheme. The fact that these important things

194
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: were kept from the American people and we were actually

195
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: told different stories time, how do we deal with that

196
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: how do we make it a penalty in the future

197
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: set people feel deterred from lying to us.

198
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 7: Well, John, I don't think you just scratching the service.

199
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 7: What Cash Betel and Dan Bunin are bringing forward we're

200
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 7: going to have ripple effects. And the question do you

201
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 7: think about the lawsuits that were settled through the finger point,

202
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,439
Speaker 7: whether it be with the voting machines and all these

203
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 7: other parties or what happened in Atlanta. There are parties

204
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 7: that were convicted that had massive settlements. Now that you

205
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 7: bring this information forward, you know, this is really going

206
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 7: to really change the dynamics and the trust that we

207
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 7: need to have and those that are sworn to protect

208
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 7: us and to create integrity in our elections process. I

209
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 7: cannot imagine the President's emotions when you heard about this.

210
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 7: I'm sure the first sass I told you so you're

211
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 7: going to hear this. I'm thinking over the next several weeks.

212
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 7: But now what is going to unfold efforts? What type

213
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 7: of rehabilitation is going to be expected because some people

214
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 7: got hurt very very painful ways due to what may

215
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 7: have been the truth all along that there was manipulation

216
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 7: in the elections of twenty twenty.

217
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 3: Chars when you talked about consumer confidence, and we talked

218
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 3: about this actually on Memorial Day weekend. But whether you're

219
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 3: talking about Memorial Day we ind or Fourth of July,

220
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 3: your district has some of the most beautiful beaches in

221
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 3: the world. I'm a little partial because I spent many

222
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 3: summers there. But when it comes to travel tourism, people

223
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 3: spending money to actually have vacations and things like that,

224
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 3: are you expecting to see an influx of people coming

225
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 3: to district one?

226
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 7: I am so Right now we're seeing oil at sixty

227
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 7: dollars a barrel. As you start to see those energy

228
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 7: prices start to trickle down to the gas pump, you're

229
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 7: going to see those families that want to get out

230
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 7: and have a good time. One thing I'll tell you

231
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 7: about the members of Congress. I'm a new guy up here,

232
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 7: but one thing I've learned there's actually a lot of

233
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 7: nice people up here, and members of Congress love to

234
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 7: give good news to their constituents, and low gas prices

235
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 7: create consumer confidence where they want to have good times

236
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 7: with their families. They want to make those memories with

237
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 7: their kids, they want to try and enjoy what's so

238
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 7: great about our country. And this is exactly why I

239
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 7: think the President when he gets up every single day,

240
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 7: that's what he's trying to accomplish. He's trying to let

241
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 7: the citizens of Conditioner District one for America spend their

242
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 7: money instead of washing. And that's why these tax cut

243
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,079
Speaker 7: that's why the big beautiful Bill is so important. And

244
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 7: the sooner that we pass it, the quicker they can

245
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 7: realize the benefits of this legislation.

246
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I want to turn to something that you've

247
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: been working on. I think it's an important public safety issue.

248
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 1: Keeping am radios in cars we having a hurricane or

249
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: something like that, we have that ability to communicate when

250
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: other systems are down. Tell us a little bit about

251
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: this bill, because I think it's actually a really essential one.

252
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 8: Yeah.

253
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 7: So, I don't think there's a number of Congress that's

254
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 7: been through more hurricanes than I have.

255
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 8: And whether it be working with our urban.

256
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 7: Search and rescue, insurance fraud, you name it, thousands and

257
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 7: thousands of people being affected, hundreds of thousands of insurance claims.

258
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 7: But unfortunately, you've got to have trusted source of information

259
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 7: after a storm. Is it's a fog of war, you

260
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 7: don't know who you can trust or where you can

261
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 7: get content from. You may not have self service, you

262
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 7: may not have power, but you know what, you can

263
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 7: always get free radio. So this is why I think

264
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 7: AM radio, especially in times of disaster, is so critical.

265
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 7: Being able to have that trusted way you can turn

266
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 7: the dial, listen in and understand where you can get

267
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 7: the resources at a time of disaster is terrible as

268
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 7: a hurricane or tornado if you're another parts of the country, Sar, I.

269
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 3: Want to focus on something that's a little bit close

270
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 3: to home for me because I hail from Los Angeles

271
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 3: in the state of California. Your state benefits. I don't

272
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 3: know if I should use that term from the export

273
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 3: of Californians into Florida. Of course, I want to talk

274
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 3: to you about what's happening in California. It's very different

275
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 3: from what you see in Florida with respect to law

276
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 3: and order.

277
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 7: So Florida, in November of twenty twenty, we had three

278
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 7: hundred thousand more registered Democrats than Republicans. Now in Florida

279
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 7: we've got one point three million more registered Republicans and Democrats.

280
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 7: What we are collecting, we're collecting the folks in California

281
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 7: that want to get away from this, saying asylum that

282
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 7: that state has become. You know, it's unfortunate that the

283
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 7: vicious cycle that is doing to that state and what

284
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 7: it's doing to the finances of that state. There's going

285
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 7: to be a true up at one point where the

286
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 7: state of California is going to have to figure out

287
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 7: a way to tax their way out of this financial

288
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 7: train work they're in. It's not just California, it's New Jersey,

289
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 7: it's Illinois, it's New York. It's all these states that

290
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 7: nobody's ever going to move back to ever again.

291
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, you reacted to something that happened in a man's hometown.

292
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: La County Sheriff's department actually issuing condolences. Yes, was affected

293
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: by the Iran bombings. Like wait, wait a second, they

294
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: were making nuclear weapons there.

295
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 8: You know, these are crazies.

296
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,359
Speaker 7: I mean, these people are truly disconnected from the reality

297
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 7: and they're blindly following Gavin Newsom off of this cliff

298
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 7: and they're wondering why people no longer want to be

299
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 7: living in this state. They're wondering why the president has

300
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 7: to send the National Guard to protect US citizens.

301
00:14:59,240 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 8: It's nuts.

302
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 7: You know, but one thing I learned in the state

303
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 7: of Florida, and I got to give credit to Rick

304
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 7: Scott and Ron DeSantis that in Florida we have got

305
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 7: good schools, we've got good businesses, we've got quality churches,

306
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 7: great communities. But the reason why all those elements exist

307
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 7: is because it's safe. We take care of our citizens

308
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 7: with our brave first responders. We compensate them well, we

309
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 7: make them feel appreciated, because you're not going to have

310
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 7: any of those great things in life unless there's that safety.

311
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 7: It that's working twenty four seven, three sixty five, and

312
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 7: right now, I'm sorry in California, they're struggling maintaining that.

313
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 4: Before we let you go.

314
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 3: Florida Gator is normally known for their sports team, but

315
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 3: now they will be protecting a DHS facility, an alligator

316
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 3: alcatraze there in Florida.

317
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 9: Good idea, unbelievable.

318
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 7: So you know, when I heard that idea, I always knew.

319
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 7: The runway was out in the middle of the Everglades

320
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 7: and it was a vision that you know, it still

321
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 7: gets used from sometimes for racing and cars, but now

322
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 7: you're taking you know, a hard and previous service that

323
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 7: is lightly used, and you can turn it into and

324
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 7: camping facilities as a holding pond to send these guys out.

325
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 7: And look, there's no need defense it because you don't

326
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 7: want to touch.

327
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 8: The water anywhere around it.

328
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 7: So yeah, I guess it's a good way to value

329
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 7: engineer a low cost detention facility.

330
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: A medieval note, sound like a good plan and like

331
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: a medieval mote exactly. Well, I know one thing that

332
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: people are voting with their feet. They're moving to Florida

333
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: because of the common sense policies that you have proposed

334
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: there and enacted. You showed people how it can be done,

335
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: how you show in Washington. Now it's going to be done.

336
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: Congress And Jimmy Patrona, it's great to have you on

337
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: the show today.

338
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 8: Sir, God bless you. Thanks for having me.

339
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you so much. All Right, folks, we're gonna

340
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 2: take a quickermercier banking. We come back.

341
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna say in Congress we're lucky. You going to

342
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: send to Congress, mean coming on trot down. He always

343
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: brings a lot of great interesting information. Will have him

344
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: right after these messages.

345
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 2: Hey, folks, if you're a homeowner like me, you need

346
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 2: to listen to this.

347
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: In today's AI and CyberWorld, scammers are stealing home titles

348
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: and your equity is their target.

349
00:16:59,320 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: Here's how it.

350
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: Criminals forge your signature on one document, use a fake

351
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: notary stamp, pay a small fee with your county in boom.

352
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: Just like that, your home title has been transferred out

353
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: of your name. And that's when the problems begin because

354
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: they start taking out loans using your equity and even

355
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: sell your profity.

356
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: And you're not even going to find out what's happened.

357
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 1: Until you get a collection or foreclosure notice months later.

358
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: That's a nightmare, right, So when's the last time you

359
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: checked on your home title?

360
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 2: If you like me, the answer is never.

361
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 7: Right.

Speaker 4: Welcome back everybody.

376
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 3: Before we get to our next guest, John, I have

377
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 3: to get your take on the I think one hundred

378
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 3: and twenty eight Democrats who voted against or to vote

379
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 3: to table the resolution to impeach Donald Trump. They obviously

380
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 3: impeached him twice in his first term in twenty twenty

381
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 3: and twenty twenty one. It doesn't seem to be a

382
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 3: proven success story for them. But do you think they're

383
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 3: just reading the tea leaves properly?

384
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 9: For once?

385
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: I think they impeached the judgment of Al Green. I

386
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: think at the end of the day, there's no grounds

387
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: for impeaching President Trump.

388
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 2: People are happy with what he's doing.

389
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 1: The polling shows at and that era of weaponization actually

390
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: they thought would keep on out of office, and it

391
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: propelled them to office. I think enough common sense Democrats

392
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: realize that they've overplayed that card and it's not there

393
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: to be at now. If Democrats get in control the Congress,

394
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: things could change, and that's why the next election is

395
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 1: so important.

396
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 4: But Plicans will still keep control of the Senate, so.

397
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't impeach him to

398
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: keep running up the tally. I mean, mindset of these

399
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: Democrats are so unusual, right. It isn't about doing the

400
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 1: right thing or following the law. It's about creating some

401
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: political effect for your party or for the far left part.

402
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 2: Of your party. So I do think it's something we

403
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 2: have to watch.

404
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: And that's why the election in twenty six is so

405
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: important to the future arc of the Trump presidency. He

406
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: doesn't want to be bogged on with impeachment proceedings. He

407
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,160
Speaker 1: wants to get the rest of his agenda done. And

408
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: you see now what the rallies planned in Wisconsin that

409
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: were eighteen nineteen months from the twenty sixth election.

410
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 2: The Trump White House.

411
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: Is in full election mode, already, working working, working, working

412
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:39,479
Speaker 1: the street, places like America First Works AFW which did

413
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: all the works. They're out doing early voting contacts already.

414
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: They're not taking the next election for granted at all.

415
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 4: Yeah.

416
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 3: I was asked a question today, what was the one

417
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 3: thing I thought that would make Republicans lose the majority.

418
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 3: And I said, the one big, beautiful bill, but not

419
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 3: the bill as a whole. If the tax cuts go away, Yeah,

420
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 3: that is something that the American people will feel. And

421
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 3: you know, we've heard a couple different estimates, but the

422
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 3: estimates are always in the thousands of what will get

423
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 3: added back to the average American healths bold tax bill.

424
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 4: It's not hundreds, it's thousands.

425
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 2: It will be noticed.

426
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, listen, they have to get the tax fest.

427
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 1: So I think you get everything done in the bill.

428
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: There's a lot of border security stuff in there. As

429
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 1: you mentioned, you ask some good questions to the Congress

430
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: and Pertronas about the energy proponents, what we need to

431
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: get energy and leash which continues to bring inflation down.

432
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: Every aspect of the Trump agenda is embedded or codified

433
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: in some way there, and I.

434
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 2: Think that's important.

435
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: And then as soon as that bill has passed, in

436
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: whatever form it gets, another decision bill is going to

437
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 1: come up, and then getting more and more of these

438
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 1: Doge cuts codified so that Elon Musk's work doesn't go

439
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: to waste and that more savings come down the pike.

440
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,199
Speaker 1: It's going to be a busy summer and fall, and

441
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: I think if Republicans stick to what they promised, they

442
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 1: probably get rewarded in the polls in twenty twenty six.

443
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

444
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 3: Another place that I imagine President Trump is going to

445
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 3: go often to campaig and that is Kentucky, because he

446
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 3: has had enough with Congressman Massey.

447
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 10: Yeah.

448
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: Sure, after the set of vote. He may have enough

449
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,360
Speaker 1: with Senator rand Paul too, So two Kentuckians.

450
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,439
Speaker 2: President Trump likes to call both of them doctor. No.

451
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: We'll see, maybe Ran Paul will come around, But there's

452
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 1: something in the water in Kentucky. Republicans don't seem to

453
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 1: support their own leader sometimes and this stuff. In fairness

454
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: to both men, they've been consistent. They voted this way

455
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: when Democrats are in there too. I understand their concerns

456
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: that we haven't cut enough spending, but derailing the entire

457
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,719
Speaker 1: Trump attended when there's other ways to cut spending is

458
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 1: probably not going to be a good political move for them.

459
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 1: Were you impressed by NATO today I was setting up.

460
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: I mean, Trump is just getting there. But you see

461
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: all these European nations like.

462
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 4: We'll do five percent, stepping up to the table.

463
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 3: You know, President Trump's powers of persuasion are something that

464
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 3: I don't think we have seen in the Oval office,

465
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 3: or maybe we've seen them, maybe they just haven't been

466
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 3: properly executed. But the way that he that he gets

467
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 3: people to come to the table. Now it helps that

468
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 3: Mark Ruda has been in favor of this has has

469
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 3: been an absolutely but you know, and to see Zelensky

470
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 3: in a suit were to the Oval, but he showed

471
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 3: up as.

472
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: Trent keeps that we might see a senator from Pennsylvania

473
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 1: in to suit anytime, the fetterman style. Who knows that, Yeah,

474
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 1: you're right. It was really interesting there. This is a

475
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 1: big meeting for the president to recalibrate.

476
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: All these guys.

477
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: Sneered at him during the four years he was out

478
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: of office. Now they reveer him because he's changing the

479
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: world a big decision by big decision.

480
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

481
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 3: Mark Halperan today was discussing President Trump's polling numbers and

482
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 3: he was looking at it as a comparison to his

483
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 3: first term, Biden's term and o Wealma's two terms, and

484
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 3: Obama's line and Trump's line are getting very very close

485
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 3: when it comes to approval numbers. It's it's it's quite

486
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 3: astounding to see.

487
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 1: But for most of Americans, he's a second term president,

488
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,120
Speaker 1: which is even all the more amazing. Obama was really

489
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 1: that popular first term second term that so much after Obamacare.

490
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 2: But are you right?

491
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 3: Yes, But you know, all the loud opposition would have

492
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 3: you believe that there is a huge, uh, there's a

493
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 3: huge force pushing against what President Trump is doing.

494
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 4: But empty barrels make the most noise.

495
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 3: And you know, oftentimes it's that smallest faction who tries

496
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 3: to to, you know, be larger and louder than they

497
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 3: actually are. It's not commencer necessarily with their size.

498
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 2: I think we have Congressman Trade.

499
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 4: I think we do.

500
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 3: Congressman Troy Downing from the great State of Montana, Sir,

501
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 3: thank you so much for being here.

502
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 11: Hey, thanks for having me.

503
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 12: Sorry about that little technical glitch, but I got to

504
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,879
Speaker 12: tell you I was enjoying listening to your last segment

505
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 12: with Congressman Patronis on the alligator Alcatraz.

506
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 4: That's a fantastic idea.

507
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:51,239
Speaker 9: I love it so much.

508
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 3: I'm trying to remember if it was Sword in the

509
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 3: Stone or what Disney movie it was growing up and

510
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 3: had alligators in a moat, But it scared me good

511
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 3: so you know, that's a great disincentive.

512
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 11: So it was pretty amusing.

513
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 3: Absolutely, sir, I want to shift to something that I

514
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 3: know is near and dear to your heart. As an

515
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 3: aviator this mission that was carried out over or on

516
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 3: by the B two's, the men who flew these thirty

517
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 3: six hours round trip and absolutely grueling and exhausting mission.

518
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 9: Do you think that.

519
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 4: Americans fully grasp what a heroic feet this was.

520
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: You know?

521
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 11: I actually I don't.

522
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 12: I don't think they fully grasp what that's like until

523
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 12: you've sat in one of those cockpits. Because I've spent

524
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 12: a lot of time sitting in aircraft, and I'll tell you,

525
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 12: there's only so much your backside can handle. I can't

526
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 12: imagine flying that far for that long and having.

527
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 11: Your wits about you. But I'm so I'm so pleased

528
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 11: that we have.

529
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 12: Folks that are willing to do those kinds of sacrifices

530
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 12: to protect this nation. And I'm so pleased at the

531
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 12: outcome of that. And it just shows the skill and

532
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 12: the dedication and the patriotism and the service before self

533
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 12: that we get from all of our servicemen and women.

534
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really true.

535
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: Now we've got some quietness in the Middle East for

536
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: the first time in thirteen days, helping that ceasefire holds.

537
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: As you look out, what should we be looking at

538
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: here in America? I know there was some Iranians that

539
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: were just picked up in some boats. Are a little

540
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: concerned about that. Should we be on alert that there

541
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: could still be proxy tax tax here in America?

542
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 2: Even though well, I.

543
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 12: Think we need to always exercise some level of diligence

544
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 12: because there are bad people out that want to hurt us.

545
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 12: And one of the things that you know, a lot

546
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 12: of us have been talking about for the last four

547
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 12: years is how many folks you know, have crossed our

548
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 12: border and disappeared into our population that still want to

549
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 12: hurt us. I think we need to always be diligent,

550
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 12: but I think that the risk because of this very

551
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 12: bold move by President Trump has really made the world

552
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 12: a safer place.

553
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 11: I think we all agree that.

554
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 12: We cannot tolerate, we cannot allow, a nuclear Iran, and

555
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 12: the fact that that has been you know, greatly diminished,

556
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 12: if not eliminated, is something that the world should you know,

557
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 12: have a collective sigh of relief because of that. I

558
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 12: think it has, you know, put us on a path

559
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 12: of being a safer planet. It is not just about Israel,

560
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 12: It's not just about the Middle East. This is this

561
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 12: is a global issue, and I am very proud that

562
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 12: President Trump had the fortitude to take this.

563
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 11: Kind of a risk, to do this.

564
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 12: I'm very proud of the service members that carried off

565
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 12: a flawless mission with you know, you saw how many

566
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 12: aircraft and how many hours, and how many people were

567
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,360
Speaker 12: involved in this with no damage, no loss to American equipment,

568
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 12: American lives, and really has made the world a safer place.

569
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 11: I'm pretty excited about the outcome.

570
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 3: Absolutely a congressman, when you have a change agent at

571
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 3: the top like President Trump, that change mentality gets disseminated

572
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 3: among a lot of agencies. And for the first time

573
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 3: in my life, I'm paying attention to what the USDA

574
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 3: is doing.

575
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 4: Tell us about this roadless rule that they recently rescinded.

576
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 12: I'm sorry the road rule and I'm not I'm sorry,

577
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 12: I'm not up to speed on that one.

578
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 4: For wildfire. I know that you are deeply in.

579
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 12: Oh I'm sorry, yeah, yes, exactly, No, that's great.

580
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 11: I think that that's very helpful.

581
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 12: We need to you know, I was on the land

582
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 12: Board Montana, and that was a big issue, is dealing

583
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,920
Speaker 12: with our timber stands, with our forests, with our management.

584
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 12: And I think that that's a positive, positive emotion.

585
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 11: I'm really excited about.

586
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 12: It's going to be meaningful to Montana. You've got you know,

587
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 12: five five and a half million acres of state land,

588
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 12: which is you know where I was before, and now

589
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 12: looking at all the federal land as well.

590
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 11: I think that this is a good policy.

591
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so real quickly got about a minute left.

592
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 1: I just you're working on something that I think could

593
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 1: be one of the big great gifts for the American

594
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: economy going forward, finding a way to get all those

595
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 1: great minerals and rare earth minerals under the soil in

596
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: your state to the rest of America so we can

597
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: have that next great generation of technology. Tell us a

598
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 1: little bit about that. I know it came up into

599
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: hearing today and yesterday.

600
00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 11: Yeah.

601
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 12: No, Actually, that's incredibly important to Montana because we we

602
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 12: we're the treasure state, and you know a big part

603
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 12: of I always tell people if there's anything you want,

604
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 12: we can we can grow it or mine it or

605
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 12: produce it, because we've got a lot of a lot

606
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 12: of access to critical minerals, to essential minerals.

607
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 11: Even a lot of people may not realize.

608
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 12: We've got the Sabanne stillwater mine down in uh you know,

609
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 12: not too far from Billings in Nie, and that's the

610
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 12: only place in America that produces platinum and palladium. So

611
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 12: those critical minerals are really important. And we've got opportunity

612
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 12: all over the state. And this is important not just

613
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 12: to the American economy, not just to energy, this is

614
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 12: important to national security as we start to develop those

615
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 12: resources internally and rely on foreign actors, foreign states less

616
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 12: and less. I think it's not just good for our economy.

617
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 12: It's not just good for our energy agenda. It's good

618
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 12: for it's I think it's you know, critically important to

619
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 12: national security as we start to move that on shore

620
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 12: and rely on foreign actors less and less.

621
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 3: Great point Platinum and played in there in Montana. I

622
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,479
Speaker 3: never knew that he learned something new.

623
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 12: It's actually our It's a hard rock mind and I've

624
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 12: toured that, which is really interesting because coal mines that

625
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 12: are a little bit more orderly. Hard rock minds are

626
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 12: like being on a e ticket right at Disneyland. You

627
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 12: just always going around in these strange places.

628
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 11: It's really interesting to watch.

629
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 12: And one of the things that I've done to make

630
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 12: sure that we can still produce platinum pladium is I

631
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 12: have a bill out there to restrict the Russians from

632
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 12: dumping into the commodities markets, because if they represent about

633
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 12: thirty three percent of that they dump, they affect the

634
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 12: commodities market, which makes it economically unfeasible for us to

635
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 12: pull it out of the ground. So we need those

636
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 12: markets to find their natural equilibrium and that makes it

637
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 12: economically feasible so that we can continue extracting in Montana

638
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 12: and producing those critical minerals that we need and rely

639
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 12: on foreign actors less and less, very.

640
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 4: Important, very important. Montana Congressman Troy Downing, thank you so

641
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 4: much being here tonight. So we always learned so much

642
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 4: from you.

643
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 3: All Right, everybody, after the break, we're going to have

644
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 3: the challenger to Senator Bill Cassidy and Louisiana doctor John Fleming.

645
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 3: He's going to be here to talk about making the

646
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 3: Senate more in line with President Trump's policies.

647
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 2: That's nice.

648
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,719
Speaker 1: Welcome back to America. Our next guest has quite a resume.

649
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: He served in the House in the House with Congress,

650
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: he was a White House Deputy Chief of Staff and

651
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: now and he serves as currently as Louisiana State Treasurer.

652
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: But his biggest mission still may be the next one above.

653
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: He's trying to unseat Senator Bill Cassie, a Republican who's

654
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: not always aligned with President Donald Trump. Joining us right now,

655
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: Doctor John Fleming, sir, good to.

656
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 2: Have you on.

657
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: John A.

658
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 13: Mandon, Thank you for having me on.

659
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 1: All right, this is a big endeavor, unseating and incumbent

660
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: senator in your own party. It seems like a big mission.

661
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: But when you start to study Bill cassidy record, he

662
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: seems out aligned with Louisiana's and out aligned certainly with

663
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 1: President Trump.

664
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 10: Right, yes, sess a Herklean effort. This is going to

665
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 10: be a national election. But as you know, Bill Cassidy

666
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 10: voted to convict Trump in the second impeachment.

667
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 13: Trump didn't vote to impeaching.

668
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 10: He voted to convict him of high crimes and misdemeanors,

669
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 10: which we've found none, of course, and among many other things,

670
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 10: he's really disconnected with Louisiana, the people. In the mindset

671
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 10: of Louisiana, Louisiana is a very maga Trump state, and

672
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 10: of course Bill Cassidy has pushed back against that. He's

673
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 10: never apologized for that vote, he's never really regretted that

674
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 10: in any way, shape or form, and called for Trump

675
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 10: to drop out of the race in twenty twenty three.

676
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 10: And of course, by comparison, I served eight years in

677
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 10: the House of Representatives, some of them with Bill Cassidy

678
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 10: when he was there, but I have a much more

679
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 10: conservative voting record. I endorsed Trump early on. I wait

680
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 10: to Trump administration serve their four years culminating and being

681
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 10: a Deputy Chief of Staff, and so obviously I'm much

682
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 10: more in line with President Trump and would love to

683
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 10: go to Washington and serve with you once again.

684
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 4: Doctor Fleming.

685
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 3: If you are in the Senate and you were looking

686
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 3: at this big, beautiful bill that got sent over from

687
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 3: the House, would you say, yeah, looks pretty good or

688
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 3: would you shred it to pieces?

689
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 13: I would vote for it. I'd be very much in

690
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 13: support of it.

691
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 10: I do agree that we need more cuts and spending,

692
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 10: but we can do that with precision bills later on.

693
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 10: This is a must pass piece of legislation. If it

694
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 10: doesn't get passed, we get automatic tax increases that's going

695
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,959
Speaker 10: to flatten the economy. So this is the highest priority

696
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 10: this year and perhaps all four years, is to get

697
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 10: this passed and then we can just step wise do

698
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 10: recisions along the way and then get our government streamlined

699
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 10: and once again again begin to pay down our national debt.

700
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, so important, And I think that's the false choice

701
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: that people have created here, which is if you don't

702
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: get it done here, can't get done. But in fact,

703
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: the House already past one decision build there's going to

704
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 1: be several more coming down. You can keep trigging spending

705
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 1: after getting the big beautiful bill done right.

706
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 10: The question about it, and for a lot of people

707
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,719
Speaker 10: to know, and the reason why we're a little bit

708
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 10: disappointed that those couldn't get the trillion dollar cuts that

709
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 10: we wanted is really most of the spending is in

710
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 10: the mandatory category. That is certainly the automatic spending that

711
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 10: doesn't even get.

712
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 13: Voted on every year.

713
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 10: And one area that they are looking at, of course

714
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 10: in the House of Representatives is how can we maybe

715
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 10: add work requirements and work eligibility to medicaid. You know,

716
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,479
Speaker 10: if your own medicaid, you can get better insurance if

717
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 10: you get a job and get private insurance. Now, many

718
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 10: people are on Medicaid can't work. They're disabled, our young

719
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 10: mother or a child, But there are plenty who can

720
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,919
Speaker 10: who are able body and if we can put them

721
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 10: to work, that's going to help our economy and they'll

722
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 10: get better insurance.

723
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 3: Sir, as deputy chief of staff for President Trump the

724
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 3: first time around, I know you were probably intimately knowledgeable

725
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 3: of some of the personnel issues that persisted and plagued

726
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 3: during the first term. Do you see that happening in

727
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 3: the second term or does it seem like there's been

728
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 3: a little bit better placement in the personnel category.

729
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 13: I think the personnel situation is excellent.

730
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 10: Remember here you have a man who in Donald Trump,

731
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 10: who had never been a politician or served in office,

732
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 10: and yet he serves the highest office. In the first administration,

733
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 10: he was on a step learning curve, and I think

734
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 10: he learned a lot from it. It just seems like

735
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 10: that this second term is much less bumpy when it

736
00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 10: comes to personnel issues. He's got the right people in place,

737
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 10: and certainly he sidelines people if they're not doing a

738
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 10: right by his choices. But it looks a lot smoother,

739
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 10: a lot better, and I think we're getting much better results.

740
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 10: And again, this recent issue with Iran is just a

741
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:19,359
Speaker 10: great example of something going wonderfully well in a very

742
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 10: short period.

743
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 13: Of time that has a tremendous impact on the world.

744
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, now the world is pre eminently safer because of

745
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: the actions taking this week and doctor John Fleming, all

746
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 1: eyes are going to be watching you the next year.

747
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:33,800
Speaker 1: That's one of the most watched Senate repriemers in the

748
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: entire country.

749
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 2: Great to have you on the show.

750
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: We're going to be sure to get you back to

751
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: get updates all through the campaign.

752
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 2: But thank you for joining us today.

753
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 13: Thank you and looking forward to it. Thank you, folks,

754
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 13: appreciate a.

755
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 2: Really great interviews. All right, folks, for you taking a

756
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 2: quick commercial break.

757
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,879
Speaker 1: When we come back, our good friends at AMAC Shane

758
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: Harris is going to join us. We've got a special

759
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 1: tomorrow night kind of like that have a lot of

760
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,360
Speaker 1: good details, but we'll also talk about the less reactions

761
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: the President Trumps bombing out by Ready and nuker facilities.

762
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 2: Some of the headlines had me laughing. We're going to

763
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 2: have some fun next pot.

764
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,359
Speaker 4: Welcome back to just the News, no Noise.

765
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 3: The left's reaction to President Trump's bombing of Iranian nuclear

766
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 3: facilities is one of the reasons why so many Americans

767
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 3: have walked away from the Democrat Party. While Trump took

768
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 3: decisive action to defend the United States interests, the left

769
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 3: insanity just jumped into outrage mode, criticizing the move second,

770
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 3: guessing military strategy, even blaming the America First Movement. So

771
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 3: joining us now to discuss the craziness is the editor

772
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 3: in chief for AMAC News Line, Shane Harris.

773
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 4: Shane, thanks so much for being here.

774
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 9: Yeah, thanks for having me.

775
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 3: You know, there is a fair amount of tds to

776
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 3: go around on the left, but this seemed to put

777
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 3: it on steroids.

778
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's right.

779
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,320
Speaker 14: So it's interesting over the weekend, obviously, I think everybody

780
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 14: left right, all Americans were surprised by their raid on

781
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 14: Iran's nuclear facilities, which you know was the entire point

782
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 14: of the plan to begin with. And so you know,

783
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 14: people turn on the news to kind of get a

784
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,719
Speaker 14: sense for what do I think about this?

785
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 9: You know, which side do I fall on? Am I

786
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 9: a fan of this?

787
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 8: Not?

788
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 14: And you know, on the one side you see Republicans

789
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 14: mostly united, a little bit of dissent, but mostly united

790
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,720
Speaker 14: that this was a great opportunistic move by the president,

791
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 14: and importantly it was an excellent.

792
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 9: Job of execution by our military.

793
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 14: And then on the left, on the other hand, you

794
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 14: have people who are literally siding with Iran, waving Iranian

795
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 14: flags in the streets.

796
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 9: And so for the American people, for.

797
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 14: Somebody who's trying to make up their mind about this,

798
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 14: it's really not an easy decision. And for the Democrats,

799
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 14: you know, who are you know, engaging and have a

800
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 14: severe case of Trump arrangement syndrome when it comes to

801
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 14: this issue.

802
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 9: And then they turn around.

803
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 14: And wonder why they're bleeding voters, why they have record

804
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 14: low approval rating. It's it's honestly hysterical to watch, just

805
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 14: from a neutral observer perspective.

806
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's stunning. It really is.

807
00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: The light Sheriff's Department actually expressing dulences for those hit

808
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: by the bombs they were making nuclear weapons. Excuse me

809
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: for a second, I'll listen. Nuvilear weapons. It's crazy. I

810
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 1: just you can't make it up. Do you see on

811
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 1: the horizon anyone who is going to take hold of

812
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: the Democrats messaging They seem to be an utter mess.

813
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 1: They want to talk impeachment on a day after a

814
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: historic effort to reduce Iron's threat to the world. They're

815
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: just out of touch on every aspect. Is there anyone

816
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:27,240
Speaker 1: that seems to happen together?

817
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 2: Or are the.

818
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: Democrats going to go into the twenty sixth election a

819
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: mumbled mess?

820
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 8: Yeah?

821
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 9: No, not really.

822
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 14: And really, this is a problem stemming all the way

823
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 14: back to twenty twenty and especially twenty twenty four, is

824
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 14: that Democrats have no bench. And during all of these crises,

825
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 14: whether or not crises, but during all of these big events,

826
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,359
Speaker 14: right whether it's the strike on the nuclear facilities or

827
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 14: whatever's going on, there's nobody who can really drive the

828
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 14: messaging for the Democrats. And if you ask me, this

829
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 14: is the result of decades of deipolicies of identity politics,

830
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 14: where so many people in the party have been elevated

831
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 14: because of their identity rather than their skills.

832
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,439
Speaker 9: And now that's really showing up.

833
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 14: In a big way for Democrats when it comes to

834
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:09,359
Speaker 14: leadership of the party.

835
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 3: Great point when you look at young voters who identify

836
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 3: as Democrats, they typically vote Democrat.

837
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 4: At least these days.

838
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 3: Do you think that they grasp the notion that President

839
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 3: Trump is the guy who said no new wars, who

840
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,760
Speaker 3: is trying to not enter the United States into another conflict,

841
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 3: didn't it all during his first term, brought more troops

842
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 3: home during his first term. And those are things that

843
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 3: the Democrat Party used to espouse and they claim, by

844
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 3: the way, these young Democrats claim they do too, but

845
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 3: they're not connecting the.

846
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 14: Dots right yeah, And you know, I think that what

847
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 14: we're seeing in the polling, what we're seeing in voting returns,

848
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 14: is that young voters are shifting right word in a

849
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 14: way that they haven't in a long time, maybe ever.

850
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 14: And the response to this event over the weekend is

851
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 14: I think a prime example of why that's happening.

852
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 9: So I think young voters do understand that.

853
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 14: But at the same time time they see, you know,

854
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,959
Speaker 14: there's clips making around on social media right now, two

855
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 14: separate instances where there are liberal commentators on corporate media

856
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 14: networks who are saying, oh, yeah, I've heard people in

857
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,800
Speaker 14: Iran chant death to America, but they don't really hate America.

858
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 9: You know, they don't really hate the United States.

859
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 14: And that kind of cognitive dissonance or that type of

860
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 14: you know, where they're just lying to you and they're

861
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 14: telling you, well, you know they'll literally go to the

862
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,840
Speaker 14: lengths of defending Iran, the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism,

863
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 14: if it means trying to get a shot in at

864
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,280
Speaker 14: Donald Trump. And I think that rings hollowed to young people.

865
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 14: It rings hollowed to everybody. And again that's why we're

866
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 14: seeing record low approval ratings for the party.

867
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no doubt, all right, change tomorrow. I'm going

868
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,720
Speaker 2: to be lucky. Rebecca is going to be here, Rebecca Weber,

869
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 2: the CEO of AMAC, and to be here.

870
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: We're going to do a special report looking at what's

871
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: happened with Iran, also looking what's happening with the Big

872
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 1: Beautiful Bill. AMAC is everywhere right now, I seem everywhere

873
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: working hard to get the BBB across the finish line.

874
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 1: Tell us a little bit about why it's so important

875
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 1: for AMAC members like myself.

876
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 9: Yeah, absolutely so.

877
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 14: We've seen an incredible outpouring of support from AMAC members.

878
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 9: I was just on a call today. We put out a.

879
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 14: Campaign urging our members to reach out to their senators

880
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 14: to pass President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, which includes four

881
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:21,359
Speaker 14: thousand dollars in tax deductions for seniors and in less

882
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:25,400
Speaker 14: than twenty four hours, thirteen thousand. More than thirteen thousand

883
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,399
Speaker 14: AMAC members responded. So that just tells us that not

884
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 14: only is the support for this bill broad, but it's

885
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 14: incredibly enthusiastic, and so we'll continue to try to push

886
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 14: that bill across the finish line.

887
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 9: Over at AMAC, I love it.

888
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:38,400

Speaker 4: to it.

899
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 15: He told me, thank you. You probably don't know who

900
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 15: he is, but you're celebrating him anyway. You just got engaged. Actually,

901
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 15: so I'm very proud of him. He's doing things the

902
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 15: right way. But you know, he told me on Monday,

903
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 15: which I guess is yesterday, he said, you know, sir,

904
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 15: I think we might have to cancel this trip to Lima,

905
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:24,959
Speaker 15: and I said, I'm not canceling the strip to Lima

906
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:25,399
Speaker 15: for anything.

907
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 5: I've been looking forward to this for months.

908
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:34,399
Speaker 15: We're not canceling the strip to Lima. And I don't

909
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 15: know if you guys saw, but there's nothing going on

910
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 15: the news at all that would justify me canceling this

911
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 15: trip to lin. Why the hell would we cancel the

912
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 15: trip to Lima, Ohio. It's a boring day in the

913
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:46,959
Speaker 15: White House, as you guys have probably seen.

914
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 5: So let me offer a few words of appreciation.

915
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 15: So I could probably thank half the people in this room.

916
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,280
Speaker 15: And I'm so thrilled to be with you this evening.

917
00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 15: And there are a few by name that I want

918
00:42:59,960 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 15: to call out, So first of all, and I'm not

919
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 15: even to try to pronounce your last name.

920
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,319
Speaker 5: I never do, but Alex t the great chair of

921
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 5: the Ohio GOP. Thank you, Alex for everything that you do.

922
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 15: I've got to think, and this is guys, you should

923
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 15: be glad.

924
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:19,439
Speaker 5: I asked about this.

925
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 15: I thought because it says here Senator Tony Schrader. But

926
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 15: I know Tony and he's not a lonely politician. He

927
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 15: is actually the guy who operates behind the scenes. So

928
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 15: our great GP Central Committee man and also the chair

929
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:36,280
Speaker 15: of the Putnam County GOP.

930
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 5: Tony Schrader, Tony, where are you?

931
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 15: Man?

932
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 5: I love you?

933
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 15: Hey, Tony's been so good to me from the very beginning.

934
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 15: And I'm gonna tell a.

935
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:49,360
Speaker 5: Little story here. That's what I'm gonna do.

936
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,319
Speaker 15: You guys are gonna be stuck here for forty five

937
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:52,400
Speaker 15: minutes to me telling stories.

938
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 5: I'm just in such a good mood.

939
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,840
Speaker 15: Unfortunately, we've got these cameras back there, so I gotta

940
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 15: be a little bit care careful if I.

941
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 5: Say something really stupid.

942
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,439
Speaker 15: Somebody's got to stand up here and stop me before

943
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 15: I embarrassed myself in front of national TV.

944
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:05,319
Speaker 2: Here.

945
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 15: But Tony Schrader was when I decided to run for

946
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 15: office the very first time. It was the Senate race

947
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,399
Speaker 15: back in Ohio in twenty twenty two.

948
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 5: And so this is sort of early.

949
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 15: Twenty twenty one when I'm going around and given speeches.

950
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 15: I haven't even declared my candidacy yet, and Tony Schrader

951
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:25,280
Speaker 15: was actually backing somebody else in the primary. Now, Tony

952
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 15: was back in a person who was a very dear

953
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 15: friend of mine, Jane Timpkin, who I don't know if

954
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 15: Jade is here, but Jane.

955
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 11: Hey, Jane, how are you?

956
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 15: But that was a hard faught primary, a bunch of

957
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 15: really good candidates, and eventually, of course I won that

958
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,840
Speaker 15: primary and won the race. But Tony worked harder for me,

959
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 15: maybe than anybody in all of northwestern Ohio. I mean

960
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 15: he knocked on so many doors. You remember, Tony. We

961
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 15: would have events with volunteers where we would knock on

962
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 15: more doors than I thought humanly possible. And it was

963
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 15: all because Putnam County GOP is an incredible organization led

964
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 15: by an incredible guy. So thank you for everything that

965
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:08,920
Speaker 15: you do. Of course, no thank you here is complete

966
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 15: in Lima, Ohio without thinking our great Allen County GP

967
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,800
Speaker 15: chairman Keith Cheney, who has an incredible voice.

968
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:21,320
Speaker 5: He was the announcer. Keith.

969
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 15: I think if I had your voice, I would have

970
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,239
Speaker 15: been vice president earlier.

971
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 5: Than I made it.

972
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 2: Man.

973
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 15: But you know, nobody is endowed.

974
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 5: With perfect gifts here.

975
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,360
Speaker 15: And of course, up volunteer Kurt Kaufman, Kurt, thanks for

976
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 15: everything that you do.

977
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 5: We said hello back to stage, thank you Kurt.

978
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 15: All right, so I got my thank yous, at least

979
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 15: my name, at least until I noticed somebody else's face.

980
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 5: In the crowd here.

981
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 15: But people always ask me what it's like to be

982
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 15: vice president the United States, and I'll tell you a

983
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 15: couple stories that illustrate that. So, first of all, I

984
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 15: didn't know that the President would make me his vice

985
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 15: presidential running mate until literally the morning of the GUP convention.

986
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 15: And if you walk back in time, you remember what happened.

987
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 15: So Saturday before the GOP convention, the President I actually

988
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 15: flew down to Florida to meet with the President and

989
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 15: we talked. It was the first time I had ever

990
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 15: talked with him explicitly about becoming his running mate. And

991
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,239
Speaker 15: he said, you know, I'm not sure what I'm going

992
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:15,239
Speaker 15: to do, but it's probably going.

993
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:16,879
Speaker 5: To be used. So go have fun the next couple

994
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,160
Speaker 5: of days. How do you have fun the next.

995
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 15: Couple of days when that's what the President tells you.

996
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 15: And of course, so that evening he flew up to

997
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 15: Pennsylvania to do a rally in Pennsylvania, and that was

998
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 15: the famous moment where he turned his head and missed.

999
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 5: I think what it.

1000
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 15: Would have been one of the great tragedies in American history,

1001
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 15: not just a tragedy for him personally, and I really

1002
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,400
Speaker 15: do believe I'm a person of faith. I imagine most of

1003
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:42,959
Speaker 15: you are too.

1004
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:44,040
Speaker 5: I believe the.

1005
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,760
Speaker 15: Hand of God prevented America from experiencing great national tragedy

1006
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:56,319
Speaker 15: and that moment. But so I called the President that night.

1007
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 15: It's probably two in the morning at this point. I

1008
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 15: called the President that night. I remember I I just

1009
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 15: met with him that morning talking about becoming his running mate,

1010
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 15: and I'm like, sir, how you doing, And he's like,

1011
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 15: I'm fine.

1012
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 5: He's just been shot in the year. I'm fine, you know,

1013
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 5: nearly lost his life, but totally fine.

1014
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 15: He goes, how's it playing out there, Like, mister President,

1015
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:17,319
Speaker 15: I think it's playing pretty damn well, because I remember.

1016
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 5: He had that photo where he raises.

1017
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 15: The fist iconically, and I said, I think that photo

1018
00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 15: is going to go down in history as one of

1019
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:24,160
Speaker 15: the great photos.

1020
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 5: And of course I was right about that.

1021
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 15: So the morning of the convention, the morning he announces

1022
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 15: me to be his nominee, he calls me at around

1023
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,879
Speaker 15: eleven forty five and I'm not kidding you. I don't

1024
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 15: answer the phone, and I don't know what had happened.

1025
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 15: We had just landed in Milwaukee, We've got three little kids.

1026
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 5: You know, it was a hot day.

1027
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 15: We were trying to get through all the security to

1028
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 15: get to our hotel room.

1029
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:47,760
Speaker 5: I don't know what happened.

1030
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 15: So I call him back fifteen minutes later and he

1031
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:54,760
Speaker 15: answers the phone and he says, JD you just missed

1032
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 15: a very important phone call.

1033
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, mister president.

1034
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:04,320
Speaker 15: And he said, I'm going to have to select somebody

1035
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:08,280
Speaker 15: else now. And of course, you know, my heart stops,

1036
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 15: and I think he's actually going to do it. But

1037
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 15: then he asked me to be his running mate. He

1038
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,920
Speaker 15: actually talks to my son, and you know, the rest

1039
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,719
Speaker 15: is history, right, the rest is history. So that's the

1040
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 15: first story. The second story that I'll tell you is

1041
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 15: we've probably been in the Oval office for all of

1042
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,600
Speaker 15: ten days and I'm sitting there and we have a

1043
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 15: phone call with a foreign leader I won't mention who.

1044
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 15: And it's a tough phone call. There's some tough issues

1045
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 15: that we have to work through with this foreign leader.

1046
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 15: And he asked me to come sit behind him at

1047
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 15: the resolute desk so that if I need to say anything,

1048
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:38,720
Speaker 15: I can just speak directly into the speakerphone.

1049
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:40,640
Speaker 5: And it's early in the administration.

1050
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,240
Speaker 15: So there's not a whole lot in the Oval office yet,

1051
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 15: and there's this sort of wooden box with a red

1052
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,800
Speaker 15: button sitting on the resolute desk, and I think to myself,

1053
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 15: that's probably not a button that you want to press. Right,

1054
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 15: So we're talking to this foreign leader and the President

1055
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 15: looks over at me, puts the foreign leader on mute,

1056
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,480
Speaker 15: and says, this is not going very well well, and

1057
00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:02,280
Speaker 15: he presses the red button.

1058
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 5: And my eyes get really big, and I'm like, mister President,

1059
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 5: you know what what just happened? And he's he looks

1060
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 5: at me and he goes nuclear.

1061
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 8: Nuclear.

1062
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 5: And two minutes.

1063
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:21,319
Speaker 15: Later a guy walks in with the diet coke and

1064
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 15: he looks back at me and he says, it wasn't nuclear,

1065
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 15: It's just the diet coke button.

1066
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 5: And that's.

1067
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:32,920
Speaker 15: So that's the kind of guy, and my fellow Republicans

1068
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 15: that we have as the President of the United States,

1069
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 15: a guy.

1070
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 2: Who can do a good job.

1071
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:38,400
Speaker 5: But keep a sense of humor.

1072
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 15: And I've learned a ton, even in one hundred and

1073
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 15: thirty days, one hundred and forty days, however long we've

1074
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 15: been in office, I think I've learned more. I've had

1075
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 15: more on the job training than I think any person

1076
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:55,880
Speaker 15: in the history of having a job for all of

1077
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 15: about five months. Because the thing that I've learned about

1078
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 15: the President of United States, and I guess I kind

1079
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,280
Speaker 15: of knew this a little bit, but I've really learned

1080
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 15: it seeing him interact with foreign leaders, with congressional leaders,

1081
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,120
Speaker 15: and just doing the job of President of the United States.

1082
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 15: Is what makes the president so successful is he is

1083
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:15,399
Speaker 15: the best instincts about people of anybody that I've ever

1084
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 15: seen in my life. He knows when somebody is selling

1085
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,760
Speaker 15: him a load to bs, he knows when he's making progress,

1086
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:23,880
Speaker 15: when he needs to cut something off. He knows when

1087
00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:26,160
Speaker 15: he's dealing with somebody that he can trust, and he

1088
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 15: knows when he's dealing with somebody.

1089
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,360
Speaker 5: That he can't trust. And I think if you think.

1090
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:32,799
Speaker 15: About everything that comes across the President's desk, I mean,

1091
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:37,280
Speaker 15: just on I guess this is yesterday, on Monday alone,

1092
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,359
Speaker 15: the President of the United States. Of course, we were

1093
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 15: trying to figure out what we were doing with the

1094
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 15: Israel Iran situation. Of course, we had just launched the

1095
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 15: wildly successful attack that destroyed the Iranian nuclear facilities.

1096
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 5: In Fourneau and elsewhere. Thank you.

1097
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 15: But we know the Iranians are going to counterattack, and

1098
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 15: we're kind of trying to figure out is it going

1099
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 15: to be a real counterattack or is it going to

1100
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:05,320
Speaker 15: be something more.

1101
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,240
Speaker 5: Symbolic, more face saving.

1102
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 15: He's dealing with congressional leaders about the one big, beautiful

1103
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 15: bill that cuts taxes on overtime, cuts taxes for tips.

1104
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 5: Thank you, really really is the most.

1105
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 15: Important generational tax reform that we've had in this country

1106
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 15: in thirty years, and also provides billions of dollars to

1107
00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 15: replenish the southern border funding that encourages us and empowers

1108
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 15: us to kick out the illegal immigrants and to stop

1109
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 15: the flow of illegal immigration into our country. So we're

1110
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 15: doing all these things, and that's just one Monday at

1111
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:49,839
Speaker 15: the White House, and there's no person that could possibly,

1112
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,920
Speaker 15: you know, read all the briefing materials that tens of

1113
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:56,080
Speaker 15: thousands of pages of background on all this stuff. But

1114
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,680
Speaker 15: what you need the in that Oval office is you

1115
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 15: need somebody with good instinct. You need somebody who can

1116
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,719
Speaker 15: tell when a person is negotiating on behalf of the

1117
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,839
Speaker 15: American people, and you need somebody who knows when they're

1118
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 15: negotiating against the interests of the American people.

1119
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:12,399
Speaker 5: And I'll tell you do not want to be.

1120
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 15: A person in Donald Trump's oval office who's negotiating against

1121
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,040
Speaker 15: the interests of the American people, because they'll throw you

1122
00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:19,320
Speaker 15: the hell out and tell.

1123
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 5: You exactly what he's going to do. And that.

1124
00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:31,240
Speaker 15: And that is what I think makes them an effective president.

1125
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 15: It's what makes them an effective leader for the American people.

1126
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 15: And I will say I'm obviously extremely biased, but one

1127
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:40,040
Speaker 15: hundred and thirty days into this term, we have got

1128
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,840
Speaker 15: a lot to brag on from the Trump administration and

1129
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:43,520
Speaker 15: what we're doing.

1130
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 5: In Washington, DC. Let me.

1131
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 15: Let me run through a few of the ways in

1132
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 15: which the Trump administration has been wildly successful. Let me

1133
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 15: start with the thing that is of course in the

1134
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:01,799
Speaker 15: news and what the President's going back ten years if

1135
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 15: you look at the campaign in twenty fifteen, in twenty sixteen,

1136
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:09,239
Speaker 15: and he said it consistently through his second term, is

1137
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 15: that he does not want Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

1138
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:16,479
Speaker 15: It's very simple. It destabilizes the entire region. It gives

1139
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 15: this terrible regime leverage over the United States of America.

1140
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,840
Speaker 15: As the President often jokes with me, everybody in Iran

1141
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 15: calls the Iranian leader the Supreme Leader. That's a pretty

1142
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 15: amazing title if you think about it. But he looked

1143
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,359
Speaker 15: at me in the situation room a few days ago

1144
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 15: and he said, if, mister Vice President, you don't have

1145
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 15: to call him the Supreme Leader, but you would if

1146
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 15: the guy had a nuclear weapon, because the leverage that

1147
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:44,880
Speaker 15: nuclear weapons give you to destabilize the world, to destroy

1148
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 15: our economic interest to destroy our national security interests. You

1149
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 15: don't want the worst people in the world to have

1150
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 15: a nuclear weapon.

1151
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 5: So what did the president do for sixty days?

1152
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:58,799
Speaker 15: He negotiated aggressively to encourage that Iranian to give up
