But a 53 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: lot of work I had. I know we're going to 54 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 1: have a lot of conversations about that today. 55 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 3: Absolutely. AMACT members were thrilled to see the one big, 56 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 3: beautiful bill passed and they're looking forward to twenty twenty 57 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 3: six and really digging in.

So many big ideas 65 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: floating around. I think the President will address a lot 66 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: of them tonight. And someone who's been caring big ideas 67 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: for a long time in Congress and getting them done 68 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: is New York Congresswoman Claudia Tenny and she kicks us 69 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: off tonight. 70 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 2: Congress Women. Great to have you on the show. 71 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 4: Great to be on. 72 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: All right. I love the Save Act. 73 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: I think it's one of the most important pieces of 74 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: legislation that could possibly get through Congress into the President. 75 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: It says it's an eighty percent issue Americans want proof 76 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: of citizenship before someone registers or gets to vote. It's 77 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: already past the top House, and I know it's a 78 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: top party for twenty six tell us how we get 79 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: it through the Senate and what it will do to 80 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: restore trust in our elections if. 81 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 4: We do, John, I agree with you. 82 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 5: This is one of the most important things we can 83 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 5: do is to enshrine voter identification and ID to make 84 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 5: sure that only US citizens can vote in our elections. 85 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 5: It's so critically important in such a simple matter. When 86 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 5: you say eighty twenty, it's almost a ninety ten issue 87 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 5: polled among all demographics, among all parties. Everybody agrees that 88 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 5: voter ID, preserving one citizen, one vote is critical. And 89 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 5: I just got to give you a quick anecdote. I 90 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 5: was actually in Honduras for their national elections as an 91 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 5: official observer with a House Intelligence Committee, and I hate 92 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 5: to say that this country actually when it comes to 93 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 5: actually verifying voters when they come in, they do require 94 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 5: a voter ID and it has to be valid, and 95 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 5: each person has to show a picture. They also do 96 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 5: biometrics to make sure that you are the person you 97 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 5: say you are. The problem with their elections comes after 98 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 5: when it talks about the custody of the votes and 99 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 5: where the ballots end up and when the government interferes. 100 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 5: But up until that point, they have a very secure system. 101 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 5: And that's where our system is the reverse. We need 102 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 5: to secure that each citizen is the citizen they say 103 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 5: they are, Otherwise we're undermining election integrity. And as the 104 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 5: founder of the Election Integrity Caucus, the chair of that caucus, 105 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 5: I started after my crazy twenty twenty election, and that 106 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 5: was the crazy election that President Trump refers to frequently, 107 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 5: where the pandemic interfered and we did not have a 108 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 5: valid election in many cases, and we will never know 109 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 5: the results. Just people always ask me, well, did President 110 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 5: Trump win or didn't he We will never really know 111 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 5: because so much was done to undermine that election. The 112 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 5: Save Act, just requiring proof of citizenships so one citizen, 113 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 5: one vote can happen, is a critical step, and it 114 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 5: will secure that vote when it gets to the most 115 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 5: basic level when you walk into the ballot box, where 116 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 5: each individual needs to know that their vote is secure 117 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 5: and they care about it. There isn't anywhere an American 118 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 5: society where we don't have to prove our citizenship or 119 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 5: prove that we are who we say we are. 120 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 2: That's a great point. 121 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,919 Speaker 3: It's such a really common sense legislation. The American people 122 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 3: are behind it, Congresswoman. When you talk to people back 123 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 3: at home, what are you hearing most often about elections? Confidence? 124 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 3: Is there? Frustration or confusion? 125 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 6: Now? 126 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 5: Look, people very much want to see voter ID. They 127 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 5: want to make sure that it's you know, that they 128 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,799 Speaker 5: go in and they have confidence. A lot of people 129 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 5: say my vote doesn't count or I'm not going to vote. 130 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 5: The thing that you can do. Every vote counts, and 131 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 5: every election counts. I am the proof of it. 132 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 4: I won by one. 133 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 5: Hundred and nine votes out of over three hundred thousand 134 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 5: votes cast in twenty twenty. And this is why people 135 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 5: just think, oh, well, you know, I'm from New York. 136 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 5: My presidential vote doesn't count. And unfortunately we have a 137 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 5: low voter turnout. Contrast with Honduras, a very small country, 138 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 5: huge voter turnout, huge interest in elections. And you see 139 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 5: this around the world in places where people would love 140 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 5: to have a free and fair election where their vote 141 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 5: actually did count and our votes do count. And I 142 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 5: would love to see every American vote in every election, 143 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 5: every true American citizen. It's really important that we express 144 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 5: ourselves in This is the essence of self government. It's 145 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 5: the most profound act that you can do as the 146 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 5: person who is a revere self governance, our constitution, our freedom, 147 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 5: our prosperity is to vote in elections. And we see 148 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 5: people I talk to them every day. You know, I 149 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 5: vote in every election. 150 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 2: I look them up. 151 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 5: They vote in every presidential election. But our local elections 152 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 5: are equally important. That's where our most grassroots support is 153 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 5: that's where the closest we are to our citizens and 154 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 5: to what happens on the ground. And I urge everyone, 155 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 5: and I think that as Republicans and Democrats also. I've 156 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 5: had Democrats come to me and say, we need election integrity. 157 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 5: Guess where that really matters New York City, where the 158 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 5: Democrats typically face each other in primary, where the Republicans 159 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 5: don't even have a fighting chance. So this is a 160 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 5: non party issue, it's an all party issue, and I 161 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 5: think that everyone should get on board to making sure 162 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 5: that we get as much voter turnout in every single 163 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 5: election that we possibly can. And I work on that 164 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 5: every year, year round. 165 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:15,679 Speaker 4: My staff. 166 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 5: We work on getting people to turn out and getting 167 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 5: people registered to vote as much as much as possible. 168 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 3: Exactly, and restoring trust is so important, you know, regardless 169 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 3: of party, Democracy only functions when citizens really can trust 170 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 3: the process. What do you see as one of the 171 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 3: maybe biggest obstacles to restoring this confidence in our elections? 172 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 5: Well, you know, obviously it's the Democrats always continuing to 173 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 5: gaslight the idea that if you have to show proof 174 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 5: of ID that you're somehow, you know, racist, or you're 175 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 5: not trusting people but that's actually the very essence of 176 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 5: what it is. And again, when I John cited earlier, 177 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 5: this is a ninety ten issue. The only the ten 178 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 5: percent that don't agree with voter idea are the ten 179 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 5: percent who've been manipulated by messaging from the Democrats. Because 180 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 5: when you don't have voter id that opens up the 181 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 5: doors for cheating. Drop boxes opens up the door for cheating. 182 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 5: Not being able to control the custody of the ballot, 183 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,239 Speaker 5: being able to know that when you put a ballot. 184 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 4: Into the machine it's going to be secured. 185 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 5: Those things are really important, and that is essential to 186 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 5: maintain an election integrity. 187 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: I guess when, back when I was a younger reporter, 188 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: I saw an extraordinary dynamic. It happened in the ninety 189 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: two election where the economy was actually getting better. It 190 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 1: was coming out of a recession. The statistics were better, 191 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: but Americans didn't quite feel it at the dinner table yet. 192 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: And I think we're in a similar moment now, which 193 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: is the economy is proving. It probably blossoms in twenty six, 194 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: but right now it hasn't hit the dinner. 195 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 2: Table or the water cooler in such a way. 196 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: What are some of the ideas that President Trump can 197 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: put on the table tonight, or that Republicans can put 198 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: on the agenda for Congress to make sure that that 199 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: improving economy hits the dinner table in twenty six. 200 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 201 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 5: Well, first of all, I think a lot of that 202 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 5: is all the negativity coming out of the Democrats just 203 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 5: constantly brect what's happening, saying that the economy is terrible 204 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 5: and costs are up, but we are still living in 205 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 5: the Biden economy. And what we did in this one big, 206 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 5: beautiful bill and the Working Family's tax cut, is we 207 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 5: dodged a major bullet, huge tax increases, the largest tax 208 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 5: increase that we would see in American history if we 209 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 5: did not renew the Trump tax cuts of twenty seventeen 210 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 5: and adds so much more into that bill. Look, that 211 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 5: is probably one of the greatest bills in American history. 212 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 5: All that we accomplished renewing the Trump tax cuts, embracing 213 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 5: and giving America energy dominance, closing and sealing the border, 214 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 5: unleashing American prosperity, the ability of small businesses to reinvest 215 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 5: in their businesses and grow our economy organically, bring jobs 216 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 5: back to America, give us the boost that we needed. 217 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 4: All those things are in that bill. 218 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 5: Unfortunately, so much of that isn't going to take place 219 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 5: till January first, but we would be seeing a devastating 220 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 5: economy had we continue the spending and the kind of 221 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 5: subsidies that were going to the wrong places. Under President Biden, 222 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 5: we're going to see actually a cut in the debt 223 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 5: and deficit this year as we move into next year, 224 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 5: which is going to help drive the economy. You know, 225 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 5: we see the stock market moving, but that's not necessarily 226 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 5: where working Americans are right now, people who live paycheck 227 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 5: to paycheck. But once we get into the new year, 228 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 5: you're going to see no tax on tips, no tax 229 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 5: on overtime, no tax on our needia, senior citizens who 230 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 5: are getting solid security. We're going to see changes unleashing 231 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 5: American energy. Energy is one of the key factors that 232 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 5: drives up inflation. The costs that have been imposed by 233 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 5: the terrible energy policies of the Democrats. It has caused 234 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 5: this inflation. It is probably the largest factor. And I 235 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 5: give you a perfect incubator to prove that. Look at 236 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 5: the State of New York and their catastrophic, dangerous energy policies. 237 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 5: You know, the lack of an all of the above strategy, 238 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,479 Speaker 5: the willingness of the Democrats and Kathy Hochel to eliminate 239 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 5: the ability to have the wonders of natural gas and 240 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 5: fossil fuels, which give us flexibility, which give us safety, 241 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 5: which give us security, which gives us prosperity, and the 242 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 5: ability to create and grow our economy and grow New York. 243 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 5: People have left our state in larger numbers than any 244 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 5: other state, largely because of the energy policy, and we 245 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 5: are facing really catastrophic problems. When you see that, even 246 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 5: left leaning groups are saying, hey, we've got to do 247 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 5: something about policy in New York with energy because we're 248 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 5: reading reaching catastrophic levels. 249 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 4: We have got to do something about that. 250 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 5: But it is a huge cost driver transportation costs, energy 251 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 5: costs for people just driving to work upstate New York, 252 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 5: especially when you look at the really cold weather that 253 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 5: we have. You know, electric cars and the electrification of 254 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 5: our grid is not going to work. And when I 255 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 5: talk about electricrification of a grip, we do not have 256 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 5: the power lines in upstate New York. It would take 257 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 5: hundreds of millions of dollars to even handle what the 258 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 5: Democrats dream of electrification is you know, we need in 259 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 5: all of the above strategy. Thankfully in my district and 260 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 5: up State New York, which is the shoreline of Lake Ontario, 261 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 5: that's where all the nuclear power plans are and that 262 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 5: could be the future of actually emissions free power. But 263 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 5: we need an all of the abus strategy. We can't 264 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 5: rely on solar, we can't rely on wind. In Upstate 265 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 5: New York, we have a lot of cloudy weather. We 266 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 5: aren't ideal for that. We need everything and that's what 267 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 5: President Trump is doing across the nation. We need to 268 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 5: be leading on this issue, and President Trump is showing 269 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 5: that that's going to be the huge driver in our 270 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 5: economy next year. 271 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. 272 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: I think one of the most underreported ideas in the 273 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: country is the Energy Dominance Consul that he created. It's 274 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: what China did twenty years ago. We're catching up and 275 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: making energy dominance the key to our security for economy 276 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: and natural security.

Are there any does the Justice Department 340 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: have the ability to investigate things like this as criminal 341 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: violations of civil liberties? 342 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 2: In two? 343 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 1: Is there any conversation about creating some sort of victim 344 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: program for people who were victimized by the Arab weaponization 345 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: so they can get some justice from the Justice Department. 346 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 7: Well, those are really good questions, and of course, the 347 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 7: Department of Justices at the heart of considering these issues 348 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 7: right now, so I can't really talk about the specifics, 349 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 7: but in general terms, yes, the Civil Rights Division and 350 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 7: the DOJ generally does have the tool of a criminal 351 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 7: conspiracy statute for conspiracy against rights. And this dates back 352 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 7: to the start of the Ku Klux Klan and when 353 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 7: the Klan and its predecessors used to go after people 354 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 7: and they could involve sometimes local law enforcement to do that. 355 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 7: And so we have the ability if we can prove 356 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 7: a conspiracy to violate someone's civil rights, that that could 357 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 7: be a criminal matter. And so these cases are rare 358 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 7: and few and far between, but it has been something 359 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 7: that we have been looking at in a few different 360 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 7: fact patterns in this Department of Justice, including numerous instances 361 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 7: of state officials violating federal rights. In this case, the 362 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 7: allegation is that federal officials violated federal rights, and the 363 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 7: other tools that could include Office of Inspector General inspections 364 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 7: here at the Department of Justice. 365 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 4: That also goes for lawyers who leak. 366 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 7: And betray con confidences, breach privilege, and for people who 367 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 7: violate their oath as attorneys. They could also face bar 368 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 7: sanctions if there's a bar referral after an investigation like that. 369 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 7: So I would say all of those things are on 370 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 7: the table for lawyers and DOJ officials and others who 371 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 7: conspired with them. At the state level, state prosecutors, state police, 372 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 7: and so forth who conspired to violate civil rights, and 373 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 7: it could also include executive branch officials from the first 374 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 7: administration who knowingly conspired and orchestrated a violation of federal 375 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 7: civil rights. 376 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 2: Wow, that is a lot to absorb. An important point. 377 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:46,959 Speaker 1: You have been showing the extraordinary, elastic and during enduring 378 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: nature of several liberties laws, and specifically election integrity laws. 379 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: Over half the states now are engaged with your office 380 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: in cleaning up their voter roles. You've created a new 381 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: unit to protect Second Amendment liberties, just like they're a 382 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: civil right all the other civil rights. They're resurrecting things 383 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: that have been on the books and showing that they 384 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 1: have an incredible relevancy in the twenty first century. What's 385 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: been the reaction to that and what could voters expect 386 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty sixth election that might feel different 387 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: from prior elections. 388 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 4: Well, thank you. 389 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 7: It is kind of crazy that we've had these laws 390 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 7: on the books for decades and yet the Department of 391 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 7: Justice and prior administrations didn't use them. And so some 392 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 7: examples are the Help America Vote Act, which is one 393 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 7: of the federal election laws. 394 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 4: That I administer. 395 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 7: There had been no prior lawsuits to enforce states requirement 396 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 7: to keep their voter roles clean for all federal election roles, 397 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 7: which is basically they keep the same rules for state 398 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 7: and federal elections for the most part, and so we 399 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 7: have brought these lawsuits. First, we started by asking for 400 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 7: voluntary compliance, and six states did voluntarily comply with our 401 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 7: data requests and have shared their information with us. Some 402 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 7: states are voluntarily now that the President has lifted a 403 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 7: fee that was associated with cleaning their data through the 404 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 7: Federal Save database. Some of doing that on their own, 405 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 7: and we're helping in coordination with other agencies, make sure 406 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 7: that they have the data they need to take dead 407 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 7: people off the voter roles, people who are not citizens 408 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 7: off the voter roles, etc. I'm close to reaching an agreement, 409 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 7: I hope, with ten states. I've had discussions with a 410 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 7: couple of other Secretaries of stayed in my office just 411 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 7: this week about whether they're going to comply. 412 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 4: Or whether I'm going to sue them. 413 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 7: Georgia has told us they're not going to comply. I'll 414 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,360 Speaker 7: be suing Georgia in the immediate future, and then I'm 415 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 7: in litigation with the eighteen states in nineteen different lawsuits 416 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 7: over their refusal to comply, and they've raised objections including privacy. 417 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 7: I mean, I'm asking for stuff like the last four 418 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 7: or somebody's social whether someone's in the country legally or not, 419 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 7: or is a citizen or not is obviously a matter 420 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 7: of federal records. So the concept that that's some kind 421 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 7: of a privacy issue is total nonsense. And they have 422 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 7: no right to be on the voter roles, and so 423 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 7: we expect to win these cases, but it may take 424 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 7: us going up to the Supreme Court to do that. 425 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 7: That's why we started it this year. We have to 426 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 7: give states a chance. I'm also going after jurisdictions like 427 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 7: Fulton County, Georgia, that still has custody of some ballots 428 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 7: from the twenty twenty election that we'd like to look at, 429 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 7: and there are a couple of other jurisdictions as well. 430 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 7: Reached a settlement with North Carolina, which is cleaning up 431 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 7: its voter rolls with one hundred thousand records that are 432 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 7: incorrect that needed to be updated, and we waited on 433 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 7: behalf of Wyoming's voter ID law and help them win 434 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 7: that case in court against liberal efforts to try to 435 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 7: push that back, and so overall what voters can expect 436 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 7: in twenty twenty six is cleaner voter rolls. Many election officials, 437 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 7: like you said, John, are doing their job now that 438 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 7: they've gotten these letters. Some are already doing it to 439 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,719 Speaker 7: be fair, but you're going to see hundreds of thousands 440 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 7: of people in some states being removed from the voter 441 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 7: rules correctly. And by the way that why do they 442 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 7: hesitate to do that in the past, because the DOJ 443 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 7: and some left wing organizations would sue them when they 444 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 7: did their jobs. 445 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 4: So it's like, damned if you do, damned if you don't. 446 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 7: For the rest of this administration, we're going to be 447 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,239 Speaker 7: supporting states cleaning their voter roles as required by federal law. 448 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 4: And we're just getting started. 449 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 3: Excellent. Yes, when Americans really hear that states aren't turning 450 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 3: over their voter rural data as required, I think people 451 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 3: are confused. But what you're saying is that from a 452 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 3: legal standpoint, transparency in voter rolls is required under federal law. 453 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 3: Why are states pushing back? 454 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great question. 455 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 7: They're using this fake privacy consideration, or I won't say 456 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 7: fake in some cases are saying our state law doesn't 457 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 7: allow this, but federal law regarding elections and this data 458 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 7: trump's state law. And we're talking about federal elections and 459 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 7: people who vote for president, Senate, Congress. We have a 460 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 7: right at the federal government level to ensure that only 461 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 7: American citizens are voting in only one time in one 462 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 7: state when they vote, and so this is a no brainer. 463 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 7: One of the rarely used statutes that we're invoking here 464 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 7: is the Civil Rights Act of nineteen sixty which provides 465 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 7: that the Attorney General has the absolute right to get 466 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 7: this data, and I'm her designated official who goes after 467 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 7: it on her behalf. And so the President the Attorney 468 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 7: General are one hundred percent behind this effort, and we 469 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 7: will march through all the fifty states and either get 470 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 7: compliance or get a court ruling on these And we 471 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 7: see a lot of amicus briefs coming in and groups 472 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 7: like the ACLU and League of Women Voters weighing in 473 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 7: on the other side against transparency. You got to ask 474 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 7: yourself the question, why would anybody want people to have 475 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 7: less confidence in the outcome of our elections. Supposedly we're 476 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 7: all supposed to accept the election results no matter what 477 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 7: they are. Well, I think that presupposes that all the 478 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 7: laws are being followed, and so they're not, and people 479 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 7: are trying to stop us from doing our jobs, and 480 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 7: I think that's highly suspect. 481 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 3: And for our listeners. In your role at the DOJ, 482 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 3: how do you determine when federal intervention is appropriate versus 483 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 3: when states really should resolve these issues themselves. 484 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 4: That's another great question. 485 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,479 Speaker 7: So generally speaking, I know everyone comes to me, they 486 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 7: call me, they besieged me at holiday parties, asking me 487 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 7: to do something about one or the other things. And 488 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 7: my response is usually we're not the general purpose police are. 489 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 7: We are administering federal laws, and it is in rare 490 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 7: instances that will step in. And for the most part, 491 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 7: the police power resides with the states, but that's not exclusive. 492 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 7: And so where Congress has passed a law or the 493 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 7: Constitution demands certain fundamental rights be protected, we have the 494 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 7: right to step in and enforce those Now, in some instances, 495 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 7: states are doing a good job of enforcing the law 496 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 7: themselves and we don't have to get involved. 497 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 4: So we try to. 498 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 7: Coordinate with law enforcement partners at the local and state 499 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 7: level before we determine whether we step in So for example, 500 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 7: there's been a number of crimes around the country that 501 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 7: are deeply concerning, but if local law enforcement has them 502 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 7: under control, even if there is a correlating federal statute involving, 503 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 7: for example, a hate crime or something like that, we're 504 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 7: going to preserve our resources for the next case if 505 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 7: it's already being taken care of. If it's not being 506 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 7: taken care of, then the federal government reserves the right 507 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 7: to step in, investigate, prosecute, and hold the criminals accountable. 508 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 7: And so all over the country, I'm seeing hate crimes 509 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 7: occur against Jews during this holiday season and against Christian churches, 510 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 7: and sometimes local law enforcement is doing absolutely zero about this, 511 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 7: or worse, gas lighting the victims, like in New York 512 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 7: and where that's happening, We're immediately opening federal investigations, coordinating 513 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 7: with the US Attorney's offices in Manhattan and other jurisdictions 514 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 7: Los Angeles, and making sure that people are held accountable 515 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 7: for these crimes. 516 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: Really remarkable, right, we just got about a minute left. 517 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 1: I want to ask about one other issue that comes up. 518 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: I heard you say that Georgia is resisting. Isn't Georgia 519 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: in Republican hands isn't Brad Rathsenberger a Republican? 520 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 2: Shouldn't he be cooperating with your Justice Department? 521 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 7: That's almost a philosophical question at this point. 522 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 2: Is he a Republican? 523 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 4: But I digress. 524 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 7: I'm a non partisan law enforcement official here, and he 525 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 7: clearly dislikes the president. I think that's a matter of 526 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 7: public record. And I don't think the average Georgia voter 527 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 7: thinks it's a great idea to get into a beef 528 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 7: with the federal government over this issue. 529 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 4: It's a losing issue. 530 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 7: And I don't know what he's doing other than flexing, 531 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 7: and I don't know what, but I feel pretty good 532 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 7: about that lawsuit. And Georgia was one of the problematic 533 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 7: states as we all know who followed the twenty twenty 534 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 7: election with respect to ballot harvesting in the mail in 535 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 7: balloting and really a lack of control over that and 536 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 7: particularly some counties. And then you saw the weaponization happen 537 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 7: against the president in Georgia as well. Fannie Willis is 538 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,959 Speaker 7: on the hot seat today on her of due process 539 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 7: and civil rights, and so we're looking forward to that 540 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 7: fight and looking forward to winning it. 541 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems like the law is definitely on the 542 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: Justice Department's side here too when you read it. So 543 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: this is an Attorney General for civil Rights at the 544 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: Department of Justice, Army Dylan. Thank you for joining us 545 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,120 Speaker 1: and helping us understand these issues. 546 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 2: Great to have you on. 547 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 4: Thanks always. 548 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, what a great interview. 549 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 1: All right, folks, we've got a special interview, one of 550 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: his first since he was named President Trump's cancers are 551 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: Doctor Harvey Risch is going to join us in a second. 552 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: He's the chairman of the President's Cancer Panel. It's going 553 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: to be exciting. But before we get there, I got 554 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,479 Speaker 1: an idea.

He's 568 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: the renowned epidemiologist and the man who had so much 569 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: right about the COVID pandemic when our government had so 570 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: much wrong. 571 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 2: He is doctor Harvey Risch.

It is 574 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 1: a big deal, and I think there's a lot of optimism, 575 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: particularly in the panel that you're sharing, that cancer is defeatable, 576 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: that we're making some extraordinary gains. Give us just sort 577 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: of an update on where we are in the fight 578 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: against cancer and what could be just over the horizon. 579 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 8: Okay, Well, the first thing is I don't want to 580 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 8: overpromise because everybody will get disappointed after you know, things 581 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 8: go the way they we hope they will go. Even 582 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 8: but cancer is highly treatable disease. We have have done 583 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 8: great research over the last fifty plus years on cancer 584 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 8: diagnosis and treatment. We've also done a very large amount 585 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 8: of research and cancer prevention, which is my specialty, and 586 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 8: some of that needs to be more visible. I think 587 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 8: that I generally say, if you drive by a cancer center, 588 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 8: you'll see somebody's name in front of such and such 589 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 8: cancer center. And that's because wealthy, grateful patients whose lives 590 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 8: were saved or prolonged by their cancer treatments donated large 591 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 8: amounts of money to their cancer centers. But what you 592 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 8: won't see is the three quarters of the population that 593 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 8: doesn't doesn't get cancer and feel grateful for the fact 594 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 8: that their cancers were prevented, that they didn't get cancer. 595 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 8: So if everybody, if all of them, gave ten dollars, 596 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 8: you know, once to a cancer center, we would be 597 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 8: really great for cancer prevention. But that's not a very 598 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 8: common understanding of what answer is for our population as 599 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 8: a whole. 600 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 2: So my goal is to. 601 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 8: Maintain and enhance our cancer industry, so to speak. I 602 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 8: love the National Cancer Institute. I've worked with those investigators 603 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 8: for most of my career. I think they're really outstanding scientists. 604 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 8: And to enhance to the degree possible methods that we 605 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 8: can use to inform the public about things that they 606 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 8: can do to reduce their risks of getting cancer in 607 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 8: the first place. It's obviously much better to avoid getting 608 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 8: it than it is to have to treat it. So 609 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 8: that's kind of my philosophy. 610 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 3: So, doctor, what role does lifestyle factors play? Such as 611 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 3: your diet, obesity, even metabolic health, How does that play 612 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 3: into cancer risk? And are there environmental or pharmaceutical exposures 613 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 3: that really deserve greater federal scrutiny. 614 00:30:55,240 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 8: All of the above, but I rank cancer exposure by 615 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 8: the number of people who are affected by them, by 616 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 8: the numbers of cancers that occur every year. Of course, 617 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 8: the biggest, most important item is tobacco smoking, which accounts 618 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 8: for approximately five hundred thousand deaths premature deaths from all causes, 619 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 8: not just cancer, every year. After that, diet is involved 620 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 8: in ways, some of which we understand and some we don't. 621 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 8: There is increasing theory that the inflammatory tendency of dietary 622 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 8: constituents can lead to increased cancer risk. And interestingly, some 623 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 8: months ago I started thinking about this and I put 624 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 8: on my telegram in Twitter pages a list of the 625 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 8: common oils that people use in cooking, and I rank 626 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 8: them in from least to most inflammatory. And there are 627 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 8: some very good choices that people can use that don't 628 00:31:55,760 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 8: cost essentially more than the common seed oils that are 629 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 8: very good to substitute to use as normal oils if 630 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 8: you want unflavored oils. Olive oil is a flavored oil. 631 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 8: It's a good one, but it's flavored. If you want 632 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 8: unflavored oils, there's the various choices that you can make 633 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 8: that are at the top of that list. So I 634 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 8: urge people if they're thinking about the inflammatory nature of 635 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 8: their diet to consult with that list or other sources 636 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 8: on the internet. There's various things that can be done 637 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 8: for individual specific cancers. For example, stomach cancers, which is 638 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 8: not all that common today in our population, it still exists, 639 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 8: is related to the consumption of smoked and processed meats. Obviously, 640 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 8: vegetables and fruit are beneficial in reducing the cancer risk 641 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 8: of the diet, and we're still learning about more specific things, 642 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 8: but those are important aspects of a healthy. 643 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 3: Diet certainly, and a lot of that people can just 644 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 3: do their research and make smarter choices, which is so important. 645 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 3: Do you think patients today really have adequate access to 646 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 3: alternative treatment options or emerging medications that are coming to market? 647 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 3: Do Americans have adequate access? 648 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 8: Well, it's not a question of access, is a question 649 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 8: of knowledge about all of that, being able to sort 650 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 8: the fringe from the real. You know, there is a 651 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 8: whole industry of purported claims about medications and supplements. That 652 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 8: has to be sorted through and with a skeptical eye. 653 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 8: That doesn't mean that none of it is valid or appropriate. 654 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 8: There are things that are being tried and investigated. Those 655 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 8: things need more formal evaluation. They may work, they may 656 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 8: not work. We don't know that yet, so there's reason 657 00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 8: to think about things. And also I propose to the 658 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 8: pharma companies that they work on cancer prevention medications, basically 659 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 8: things that are safe and low cost that they could 660 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 8: patent and make money off of that would reduce cancer risk. 661 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 8: There's no reason to think that pharma only has to 662 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 8: work on treatments. They themselves can develop prevention measures if 663 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 8: they choose to. 664 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 2: Doctor. 665 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: One of the things that I hear so often and 666 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: I experienced it myself now, I've had my same doctor 667 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: for twenty years, but sometimes it's hard to get in 668 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: to see her at anytime soon. But the sort of 669 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: post Obamacare era, with the consolidation of doctors in large practices, 670 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: there seems to be some fraying of the doctor patient relationship, 671 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: and of course that helps on preventative care. 672 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 2: It helps them when you get sick. 673 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: What are some of the best new ideas out there 674 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 1: to kind of reinvigorate the doctor patient relationship and keep 675 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:52,479 Speaker 1: others out. 676 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 2: Of the middle of it. 677 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 8: Well, it's really hard to know. We all face as 678 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 8: I face, as my wife faces this, you know, in 679 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 8: our life here in Connecticut, and I think that it's 680 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 8: really hard to push back against the system that operates 681 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 8: for its commercial interests much more so than its patient interests. 682 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 8: Doctors themselves work really feel their patient interest but they've 683 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 8: been forced to be parts of commercial practices. In large 684 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 8: part that's reduced a number of sole providers and partnerships 685 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 8: individual practices here that that's been my experience and probably 686 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 8: is true throughout the country. So it's a challenge now 687 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 8: and I'm not sure exactly how to deal with this, 688 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 8: and I certainly wouldn't want to see regulation controlling this. 689 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 8: I would like to see much more organic natural ways 690 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 8: that this has improved. 691 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 2: Real quickly too. 692 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: Because you mentioned information I remectin hydroxychloroicuine, are you going 693 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 1: to look at that as related to potential cancer applications. 694 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 8: I think they're among maybe a dozen various medications that 695 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 8: should have more formal studies. They may turn out that 696 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 8: they don't help we don't know that yet, or it 697 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 8: may turn out that they do. I've had a lot 698 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 8: of anecdotal reports telling me that doctors have treated their 699 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 8: patients with those medications, but you know, they'd never tell 700 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 8: me really how many patients they treated that it didn't work. 701 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,839 Speaker 8: So honestly, I don't know yet, and this is why 702 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 8: I say these things need more formal study. 703 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, very exciting time. 704 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: Well, fresh eyes in the role you have will be 705 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 1: an extraordinary gift to the public. 706 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,879 Speaker 2: Doctor Rischa.

Welcome 727 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,439 Speaker 1: back to America to this justin news, Real America's Voice 728 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 1: special report brought to you. 729 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,240 Speaker 2: By our friends at AMAC, Association of Mature American Citizens. 730 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 1: I'm still joined by Rebecca Reba, the CEO of AMAC, 731 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 1: and our final guest tonight is Derek Morgan, executive vice 732 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 1: president at the Heritage Foundation. 733 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 2: Derek, great to have you on the show. 734 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 3: Great to be with you. 735 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 1: All Right, We've got some exciting opportunities ahead of us 736 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: with the regulation busting, with the sort of reinventing of 737 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,879 Speaker 1: government and policy, and the economy that's happening under Donald 738 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: Trump after. 739 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,280 Speaker 2: The bad Biden hangover. 740 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: One of the questions I think a lot of people 741 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 1: have is can Trump's EPA break the cartel that ethanol 742 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: has had on our gast Obviously concerns a lot of people. 743 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 1: Give us a little bit of where we are in 744 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 1: that process. 745 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, Well, the EPA has put out a proposal that unfortunately, 746 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 6: in some respects, is a step backward. What it does 747 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 6: is it sets standard for ethanol at fifteen billion gallons, 748 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 6: when that's well above the ten percent that can be 749 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 6: easily accepted in the fuel supply. And then on top 750 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 6: of that, it is saying the exemptions that were granted 751 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 6: to small refiners in years past all have to be 752 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 6: made up for at once. So what this is going 753 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,240 Speaker 6: to mean is a lot more ethanol than the system 754 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 6: can handle, and higher fuel prices, even by their own admission. 755 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Derek, you know, affordability for average Americans, that's 756 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,240 Speaker 3: top of mind, especially for AMAC members. 757 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 1: Now. 758 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 3: Energy prices really do touch almost every aspect of our 759 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 3: daily life, from groceries to housing to healthcare. How central 760 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:15,320 Speaker 3: is energy policy to the overall health of our US economy. 761 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 6: It's very central. Not only you think of electricity prices 762 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 6: that goes into the cost of almost everything, but when 763 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 6: you think about the price of fuel, especially gasoline and diesel, 764 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,760 Speaker 6: just about everything these days is shipped of course across 765 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 6: our roadways, and higher prices at the pump are going 766 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 6: to translate to higher prices throughout the economy. So I'm 767 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 6: hopeful that the President and his team at EPA will 768 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 6: take a hard look at this rule and decide, at 769 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 6: the very least, they're not going to reallocate all these 770 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 6: small refinery exemptions onto the rest of the industry. Not 771 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 6: only would that be higher prices at the pump, but 772 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 6: it could also put good paying refinery jobs at risk 773 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 6: in places like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin. 774 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 3: Can I follow up and ask you, in your view, 775 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 3: how much of the inflation that Americans are experiencing in 776 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 3: recent years can really be traced back to energy policy decisions. 777 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 6: Quite a bit of it, But I think that this 778 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 6: one particular proposal, I think is a small step backward. 779 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 6: But overall, the administration has done great things for energy. 780 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 6: They've opened up production from coast to coast, and we're 781 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,840 Speaker 6: seeing increased production, we're seeing healthy refineries. That's why this 782 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 6: discordant note from EPA is concerning. But for the most part, 783 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 6: the President really gets it. He understands we need inexpensive 784 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 6: energy and we need reliable energy. He also took a 785 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 6: huge step forward with getting rid of the ev mandates 786 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,280 Speaker 6: that President Biden had put forward that we're causing cars 787 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 6: to just be way too expensive. So overall, I'd have 788 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 6: to give him an a on his energy policy, even 789 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 6: though this one policy with rfs and ethanol is headed 790 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 6: them the wrong direction. 791 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 8: Derek. 792 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: One of the things that has happened over two or 793 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: three decades as we've made American farmers reliant on the 794 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: notion that the ethanol mandate is their way to keep 795 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,479 Speaker 1: their prices up. But in a world where new trade 796 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: deals are being struck every day, how important will it 797 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 1: be for President Trump to open up new food trade 798 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: deals for our farmers, open up new markets, even if 799 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,879 Speaker 1: he does bring down the ethanol requirements. And where corn 800 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: goes now is that Do you see some evidence that 801 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: that is happening now? 802 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,839 Speaker 6: Absolutely, and it's encouraging and it has to happen. Our 803 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 6: farmers are the most productive in the world, and we 804 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 6: can be feeding the world. And so the President is 805 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,240 Speaker 6: a dressing that he's pushed put pressure, especially on China, 806 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 6: particularly on soybeans. But look, corn and soybeans, which can 807 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 6: be diverted into fuel, our best as food sources. And 808 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 6: the President's trade policy is opening up markets one by one. 809 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 6: That's the way to go. That's the way to sell 810 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 6: these crops for the best price and to keep the 811 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 6: rural economy strong and not hurting consumers at the pump. 812 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 3: Certainly, yes, Derek, what do you think is one of 813 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 3: the most misunderstood claims about green energy and the economy. 814 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 6: Boy, there's so many. I would say, this whole notion 815 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,959 Speaker 6: of inevitability. We heard this so much over the past 816 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 6: decade or maybe more, even going back to the Obama administration, 817 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 6: that electric vehicles were the future. Well, they just don't 818 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 6: work very well. In addition to being expensive, the infrastructure 819 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:27,240 Speaker 6: is not there. They don't work in all the use cases. 820 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 6: As a second car, for a commuter car, it might 821 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,759 Speaker 6: work okay, but forcing everyone into an EV is just 822 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 6: not going to work. We need gasoline vehicles, diesel vehicles, 823 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 6: especially for over the road trucking and for people that 824 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 6: are in their car all day. They can't be sitting 825 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 6: waiting hours to fuel up if you're a taxi cab driver, 826 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 6: if you're out there doing lawn maintenance and that sort 827 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,800 Speaker 6: of thing. So why try to fit everybody into the 828 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 6: EV box? I could say the same thing for green 829 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 6: energy and electricity. Wind and solar is good where it 830 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 6: works and when it works, But obviously solar doesn't work 831 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 6: at night, and wind doesn't work when the wind isn't blowing. 832 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,800 Speaker 6: We instead need to have reliable and affordable energy and 833 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 6: President Trump gets this in spades, and they're making great 834 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 6: strides toward that. 835 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 2: Derek. 836 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 1: Another area where the energy system has found a bottleneck 837 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: is an updating the grid and getting the grid ready. 838 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:26,720 Speaker 2: For the AI revolution. 839 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: It seems as though big public works projects, particularly in 840 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 1: Blue states, they simply can't keep up with the demand 841 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 1: or the requirements of an AI future. But there's lots 842 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 1: of innovation going on where we're now beginning to create 843 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: these mini grids and you're seeing data centers build their 844 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,879 Speaker 1: own grids independent of that. How important is that out 845 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 1: of the box thinking and how prevalent might become under 846 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 1: President Trump. 847 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 6: It's very important. We're seeing some great signs for that 848 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,720 Speaker 6: for kind of dedicated be it natural gas eventually someday 849 00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 6: nuclear as well, with the development of small mind the 850 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 6: reactors potentially, I think that is going to be the 851 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:07,880 Speaker 6: shape of the future. You know, transmission is important. Sometimes 852 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 6: it's wrapped up unnecessarily with wind and solar because you know, 853 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 6: these fields can be far far away. So they're saying, well, 854 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 6: we got to have the transmission, and that's fine, But 855 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,720 Speaker 6: the bigger problem with wind and solar, these intermittent sources 856 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 6: is that we just don't have the ability to store 857 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 6: the energy when the sun is shining. We do not 858 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 6: have the batteries for it, and even if we did, 859 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 6: it would be hugely expensive and take a lot of 860 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 6: raw materials and end up being harmful for the environment. 861 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 6: So I think the most critical question is what are 862 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 6: going to be our fuel sources. Are we really going 863 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 6: to use all of the above, allow natural gas, nuclear, 864 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 6: even coal to play its part in our energy future. 865 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:49,799 Speaker 6: If we do that, we'll be successful, and if we don't, 866 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 6: we're going to be competing with China with a hand 867 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 6: tied behind our back. 868 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly the way to lose the AI or 869 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: Derek Margan, always a great honor. We love the great 870 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 1: work you're and your team do at the Heritage Foundation. 871 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 1: Merry Christmas.

We're just a few just a little over 890 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 1: an hour away from the President's addressed to the Nation 891 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: from the Old Office, all looking forward to that. We 892 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: got quite a preview of things that might come up tonight, 893 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,160 Speaker 1: and I want to bring in my amazing gos for 894 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:06,800 Speaker 1: the evening, Becca Weber. Rebecca, there were some pretty remarkable 895 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 1: moments in our conversation in the last hour. I want 896 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 1: to start with doctor Rish, who signaled a very different 897 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 1: approach to medicine in the post Anthony fauci Era, even 898 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 1: looking at things like ivermectin and hydroxychlorocoron ato, whether they 899 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 1: had could be reused for cancer treatment. You got a 900 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:25,800 Speaker 1: sense that there's a new sheriff in town. In the 901 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 1: medical world today. 902 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 3: Absolutely. I mean I think Americans are you know, have 903 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,879 Speaker 3: largely lost trust in a lot of these government institutions. 904 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,360 Speaker 3: But what we're hearing from doctor Reisch is that his 905 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 3: common sense approach is so refreshing the whole idea that 906 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 3: he's able to look at things from a very holistic 907 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,759 Speaker 3: approach and sort of peel away the red tape and 908 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 3: talk about things that quite frankly, people are afraid to 909 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 3: talk about, things like ivermectin. And what he suggested is 910 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 3: there's a lot more work that we need to do there, 911 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 3: but those are very important and top of mind for 912 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 3: so many AMAC members. So it was really great to 913 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 3: hear how much science is bringing, you know, new technology 914 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 3: and cure as we pray are going to be something 915 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 3: of the future, which is which is important to all people. 916 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 3: It was really just an incredible lineup, John, Yeah, it 917 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:20,400 Speaker 3: really was. 918 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 1: And great questions all through. I mean, it was an 919 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 1: amazing conversation. I want to turn to someone else who 920 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 1: brought a different approach. A lot of people think, well, 921 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 1: we need a lot of new election laws, Harmie Dillon 922 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,600 Speaker 1: as the assistant attorney Johnifer sail right. She proved that 923 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:33,800 Speaker 1: you could use the existing laws on the book to 924 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 1: accomplish what Republicans had long failed at accomplishing, which is 925 00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 1: getting these voter rolls cleaned up, getting states to comply 926 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 1: with various. 927 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 2: Laws. 928 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 1: But just going back and having your fresh look at 929 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 1: the old laws and the books, she came up with 930 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 1: some pretty big new tools. 931 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 932 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 3: Election integrity so important, so important to AMAC members, very 933 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 3: top priority, number one issue. And you have to wonder 934 00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 3: who in their right mind would not want to clean 935 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 3: up their vot to roles. So American people are smart, 936 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:06,959 Speaker 3: they understand basic common sense. Every legal vote should count. 937 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 3: It is our sacred right to vote. This is an 938 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 3: issue so close to AMAC and an issue that will 939 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 3: continue to fight for. We've got to do that in 940 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 3: order to ensure that our elections are free and fair 941 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 3: and that people are not disenfranchised. We've got to get 942 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 3: more people to participate in our great republic. And hearing 943 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 3: from Harmeet brings me so much hope. We finally see 944 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 3: that somebody's we have an administration that's really paying attention 945 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:33,280 Speaker 3: and working for we the people. 946 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, AMAC, plays such an important role in doing things 947 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: like the citizenship vote, a citizenship issue in front of 948 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 1: the American people, making your only citizens vote. It's been 949 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 1: such an important vice. So we got about forty five 950 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: seconds left. What do you expect here from the President tonight? 951 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,920 Speaker 3: Well, I think the President's going to talk about his 952 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 3: historic accomplishments. John, there were so many in twenty twenty five. 953 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:56,800 Speaker 3: It wasn't long ago. A couple of weeks back, I 954 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,280 Speaker 3: heard the presidents say, look what I did with the border. 955 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 3: Nobody talking about the border. Everybody forgot how bad the 956 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 3: border was. But we have to remember so many of 957 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,480 Speaker 3: the so many great things that he's done. I think 958 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 3: we're going to hear him talk about the economy inflation, certainly. 959 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 3: I think he'll go on to talk about the great 960 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 3: accomplishments he's made. He's really looking to protect our country, 961 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 3: our citizens, get rid of these drugs illegals that are 962 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 3: wreaking havoc in our in our suburbs. I think it's 963 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,799 Speaker 3: going to be a very important speech and I'm really 964 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 3: looking forward to hearing it. 965 00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I got to put you a sneak peek at it. 966 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 1: The first section is why do you inherit it second. Second, 967 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: what section is what he's already change to fix? In 968 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 1: the section three what he's going to change and fix. 969 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 1: And I think a lot of them are going to 970 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 1: be music to AMAC members here.
