A twenty year old 4 00:00:22,577 --> 00:00:24,577 Speaker 1: woman was fatally shot in New York City while she 5 00:00:24,657 --> 00:00:28,017 Speaker 1: pushed her infant daughter in a stroller. Its latest shooting 6 00:00:28,097 --> 00:00:30,577 Speaker 1: is again throwing a spotlight on the rise and murders 7 00:00:30,577 --> 00:00:33,457 Speaker 1: in the Big Apple, which many suspect is going to 8 00:00:33,537 --> 00:00:37,857 Speaker 1: experience a summer of increased violence. Who city and state 9 00:00:37,937 --> 00:00:40,377 Speaker 1: leaders are blaming the issue on guns rather than their 10 00:00:40,377 --> 00:00:43,337 Speaker 1: own failure to enforce the laws, and they're undermining of 11 00:00:43,377 --> 00:00:52,977 Speaker 1: the NYPD. Friends, It's time for hold the line. Welcome 12 00:00:52,977 --> 00:00:55,097 Speaker 1: to hold the line on buck Sexton. It happened to 13 00:00:55,097 --> 00:00:56,977 Speaker 1: the neighborhood that I grew up in here in New 14 00:00:57,057 --> 00:01:00,737 Speaker 1: York City, the Upper East Side, a place not generally 15 00:01:00,737 --> 00:01:03,337 Speaker 1: thought of as having much, if any violent crime going on. 16 00:01:03,497 --> 00:01:06,937 Speaker 1: It's one of the safest areas, safest neighborhoods in all 17 00:01:06,977 --> 00:01:09,617 Speaker 1: of New York City, and yet there was an execution 18 00:01:09,657 --> 00:01:12,337 Speaker 1: style killing their last night. A young woman twenty years 19 00:01:12,377 --> 00:01:15,297 Speaker 1: old shot in the back of the head. It is 20 00:01:15,377 --> 00:01:20,857 Speaker 1: believed that her killer was an ex boyfriend. The NYPD 21 00:01:21,937 --> 00:01:25,177 Speaker 1: telling reporters today that he had a history of threats 22 00:01:25,177 --> 00:01:28,017 Speaker 1: and violence against her. She was supposed to meet with 23 00:01:28,057 --> 00:01:30,377 Speaker 1: the father of her child on the street and he 24 00:01:30,657 --> 00:01:34,617 Speaker 1: came up behind her allegedly and killed her on the street. 25 00:01:35,697 --> 00:01:38,497 Speaker 1: This is the kind of crime that gets a lot 26 00:01:38,537 --> 00:01:41,497 Speaker 1: of attention because of the heinousness of it, and it 27 00:01:41,617 --> 00:01:45,737 Speaker 1: also is another fatal shooting on the streets of New 28 00:01:45,817 --> 00:01:48,697 Speaker 1: York at a time when the numbers are far too high. 29 00:01:48,737 --> 00:01:54,337 Speaker 1: Now we have gone through before this situation where there 30 00:01:54,417 --> 00:01:56,337 Speaker 1: was far too much violence in the streets of New York, 31 00:01:56,657 --> 00:02:01,137 Speaker 1: as well as many other cities across the country, Houston, Philadelphia, Atlantis, Chicago, 32 00:02:01,217 --> 00:02:07,057 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, they've all seen substantial rises 33 00:02:07,857 --> 00:02:11,817 Speaker 1: and smaller cities like Saint Louis and burming Hammon Little 34 00:02:11,897 --> 00:02:17,337 Speaker 1: Rock rises in violent crime. And the way we deal 35 00:02:17,377 --> 00:02:22,697 Speaker 1: with this successfully is to actually start enforcing the laws 36 00:02:22,897 --> 00:02:27,497 Speaker 1: in a meaningful way against the criminal element, against those 37 00:02:27,537 --> 00:02:31,137 Speaker 1: in our society who are breaking the law. But that's 38 00:02:31,137 --> 00:02:34,617 Speaker 1: not the plan that Democrats want to go with. Instead, 39 00:02:35,017 --> 00:02:39,217 Speaker 1: their focus is on getting rid of and stopping the guns, 40 00:02:39,697 --> 00:02:42,497 Speaker 1: as if there's any real hope, as if there's any 41 00:02:42,537 --> 00:02:47,337 Speaker 1: realistic chance that they're going to pass more laws when 42 00:02:47,337 --> 00:02:49,417 Speaker 1: you already have in place like New York very restrictive 43 00:02:49,417 --> 00:02:52,017 Speaker 1: gun laws, but pass more laws elsewhere that stop people 44 00:02:52,337 --> 00:02:56,217 Speaker 1: who are criminals from breaking those laws to use guns 45 00:02:56,297 --> 00:03:00,457 Speaker 1: illegally in shootings like the tragic one that happened just 46 00:03:00,657 --> 00:03:02,857 Speaker 1: last night in New York. Here is the Mayor of 47 00:03:02,857 --> 00:03:05,297 Speaker 1: New York City, Eric Adams, at the scene of that 48 00:03:05,617 --> 00:03:09,137 Speaker 1: shooting of the twenty year old mother. This entire day, 49 00:03:09,497 --> 00:03:13,337 Speaker 1: we have been addressing the problem of the over proliferation 50 00:03:13,377 --> 00:03:17,337 Speaker 1: of guns on our street, how readily accessible they are, 51 00:03:18,217 --> 00:03:23,497 Speaker 1: and how there is just no fear in using these 52 00:03:23,537 --> 00:03:29,537 Speaker 1: guns on innocent New Yorkers. When a mother's pushing a 53 00:03:29,577 --> 00:03:32,417 Speaker 1: baby carriage down the block, or an individual a woman 54 00:03:32,537 --> 00:03:35,257 Speaker 1: is pushing a baby carriage down the block and his 55 00:03:35,377 --> 00:03:41,497 Speaker 1: shouting point blank range, it shows just how of this 56 00:03:41,817 --> 00:03:48,097 Speaker 1: national problem is impact in families. So he's focused on 57 00:03:48,137 --> 00:03:52,457 Speaker 1: the guns instead of progressive prosecutors who will not bring 58 00:03:52,937 --> 00:03:58,457 Speaker 1: the necessary cases with the severity that is commensurate with 59 00:03:58,497 --> 00:04:00,697 Speaker 1: the offenses, won't do that in New York City, won't 60 00:04:00,697 --> 00:04:04,257 Speaker 1: do that in so many places across the country, and 61 00:04:04,377 --> 00:04:07,577 Speaker 1: instead focuses on guns because this is more politically acceptable 62 00:04:07,577 --> 00:04:09,977 Speaker 1: to him, as if New York, which has what they 63 00:04:10,137 --> 00:04:13,537 Speaker 1: call a river of steel or the steel pipeline that 64 00:04:13,617 --> 00:04:17,457 Speaker 1: comes from a number of other states that have more 65 00:04:18,217 --> 00:04:22,297 Speaker 1: accessible firearms laws. People illegally sell those farms. It's called 66 00:04:22,297 --> 00:04:25,897 Speaker 1: a straw purchase, the violation of federal law. People legally 67 00:04:25,937 --> 00:04:29,377 Speaker 1: sell those guns to individuals and then they take them 68 00:04:29,417 --> 00:04:32,897 Speaker 1: across state lines and they use them in heinous crimes. 69 00:04:33,417 --> 00:04:36,217 Speaker 1: This is something that I had not seen before in 70 00:04:36,257 --> 00:04:38,257 Speaker 1: New York, but it might be something that becomes more 71 00:04:38,297 --> 00:04:40,857 Speaker 1: common in New York City. A gunman on a scooter 72 00:04:41,657 --> 00:04:45,577 Speaker 1: in broad daylight, on a little scooter there, tried a 73 00:04:46,177 --> 00:04:50,977 Speaker 1: drive by scooter shooting, actually tried to commit a murder 74 00:04:51,857 --> 00:04:54,817 Speaker 1: via scooter shooting. You see it here. Nobody was hurt 75 00:04:54,857 --> 00:04:58,217 Speaker 1: in this shooting, fortunately, but this just goes to show 76 00:04:58,217 --> 00:05:01,417 Speaker 1: you this is broad daylight caught on camera. The criminal 77 00:05:01,457 --> 00:05:06,697 Speaker 1: element does not have fear of police action. They think 78 00:05:06,697 --> 00:05:08,497 Speaker 1: they're going to get away with the stuff, and unfortunately, 79 00:05:08,537 --> 00:05:11,137 Speaker 1: in so many cases they a are. And this is 80 00:05:11,177 --> 00:05:15,097 Speaker 1: because Democrat leadership in places like New York lack the 81 00:05:15,137 --> 00:05:18,097 Speaker 1: political will to do what is necessary, which is lock 82 00:05:18,697 --> 00:05:23,097 Speaker 1: up criminals and back the police. We see what the 83 00:05:23,137 --> 00:05:26,217 Speaker 1: numbers tell us. I mean, here's a graph showing murders 84 00:05:26,217 --> 00:05:28,817 Speaker 1: starting in twenty eleven New York City to twenty twenty one. 85 00:05:28,897 --> 00:05:32,097 Speaker 1: You see it was at five hundred and fifteen and 86 00:05:32,137 --> 00:05:36,697 Speaker 1: then it dropped way down. It actually got below three hundred. 87 00:05:37,097 --> 00:05:41,657 Speaker 1: And then look at that in twenty twenty the BLM movement. 88 00:05:42,057 --> 00:05:46,897 Speaker 1: All of a sudden that NYPD gets a billion dollar 89 00:05:47,017 --> 00:05:50,377 Speaker 1: budget cut. There are all these changes being made, like 90 00:05:50,457 --> 00:05:54,857 Speaker 1: the playing Closed Police Division, one of the most useful, 91 00:05:54,897 --> 00:05:57,777 Speaker 1: most effective anti crime units of the NYPD, the largest 92 00:05:57,817 --> 00:06:01,937 Speaker 1: police department in America, is taken off the streets, reassigned 93 00:06:01,937 --> 00:06:05,777 Speaker 1: to other units. They effectively disband that unit, and we 94 00:06:05,897 --> 00:06:09,097 Speaker 1: see the predictable results. None of this is surprising, I mean, 95 00:06:09,137 --> 00:06:11,537 Speaker 1: none of this is oh wow, how did we get here? 96 00:06:12,177 --> 00:06:15,617 Speaker 1: When you defund and undermine your cops, and when you 97 00:06:15,697 --> 00:06:20,817 Speaker 1: have progressive lunatics running your prosecutors offices, which New York 98 00:06:20,857 --> 00:06:23,497 Speaker 1: and many other cities in America do, right now, the 99 00:06:23,577 --> 00:06:26,377 Speaker 1: criminals run free, and they prey on people, and they 100 00:06:26,457 --> 00:06:28,977 Speaker 1: hurt people, and they kill people, and the numbers get worse, 101 00:06:29,577 --> 00:06:31,697 Speaker 1: and the cops know this, and they know they don't 102 00:06:31,737 --> 00:06:34,417 Speaker 1: have the political backing. They know that every time the 103 00:06:34,537 --> 00:06:36,537 Speaker 1: mayor's officer in New York puts out some statement, it's 104 00:06:36,537 --> 00:06:38,937 Speaker 1: always about how they have to be ready. The new 105 00:06:38,937 --> 00:06:42,097 Speaker 1: police units are being trained in de escalation, and they're 106 00:06:42,097 --> 00:06:44,777 Speaker 1: going to make sure that they're not even scaring the community. 107 00:06:45,417 --> 00:06:49,377 Speaker 1: Cops are only scary to criminals, to the bad guys 108 00:06:49,457 --> 00:06:51,937 Speaker 1: in New York. All right, we actually like our cops here, 109 00:06:51,977 --> 00:06:55,617 Speaker 1: but the left, the Democrats, especially rich Democrats who live 110 00:06:55,617 --> 00:06:57,377 Speaker 1: in very safe areas, they feel like this won't really 111 00:06:57,377 --> 00:06:59,737 Speaker 1: affect them. They don't care. A lot of cops are leaving. 112 00:06:59,777 --> 00:07:02,137 Speaker 1: The NYPD's had an exodus. Police are on pace to 113 00:07:02,217 --> 00:07:05,537 Speaker 1: quit and retire once again in record numbers. They tried 114 00:07:05,537 --> 00:07:10,577 Speaker 1: a recent recruiting drive and they got they want thousand. 115 00:07:10,577 --> 00:07:12,697 Speaker 1: I think they got about six hundred, so just a 116 00:07:12,737 --> 00:07:15,737 Speaker 1: little over half of the numbers that they wanted. That's 117 00:07:15,777 --> 00:07:19,097 Speaker 1: a substantial shortfall that they're going to have to figure 118 00:07:19,097 --> 00:07:21,377 Speaker 1: out what to do about. And it's not even just 119 00:07:21,417 --> 00:07:24,377 Speaker 1: the NYPD in New York City that has this problem 120 00:07:24,977 --> 00:07:29,937 Speaker 1: of horrible Democrat leadership results in the kinds of challenges 121 00:07:29,977 --> 00:07:32,817 Speaker 1: that we're seeing here in the city. I mean the 122 00:07:33,137 --> 00:07:36,617 Speaker 1: decrease in quality of life, the increase in crime. Governor 123 00:07:36,697 --> 00:07:40,697 Speaker 1: Kathy Hokel, who is among the dumbest people in American 124 00:07:40,777 --> 00:07:43,737 Speaker 1: political life to day, when she was asked because she 125 00:07:43,777 --> 00:07:46,337 Speaker 1: wants to pass these laws now to make it harder 126 00:07:46,377 --> 00:07:50,657 Speaker 1: for people to bring guns into legally on firearms into businesses, 127 00:07:50,697 --> 00:07:52,737 Speaker 1: so the business is going to have to opt into 128 00:07:52,777 --> 00:07:55,537 Speaker 1: allowing you to carry while you're in that business. Just 129 00:07:55,577 --> 00:07:57,937 Speaker 1: makes it more annoying because you know, a criminal who's 130 00:07:57,937 --> 00:08:01,857 Speaker 1: going into rob a liquor store or a bank is 131 00:08:01,897 --> 00:08:04,337 Speaker 1: going to say, whoa hold on a second, this business 132 00:08:04,377 --> 00:08:07,177 Speaker 1: does not allow lawful firearm carry, So I'm not going 133 00:08:07,177 --> 00:08:09,257 Speaker 1: to go in there and rob it. Obviously that's not 134 00:08:09,297 --> 00:08:11,977 Speaker 1: going to happen. So when Cathy Hicks asked if she 135 00:08:12,017 --> 00:08:17,177 Speaker 1: has any data to back up her latest gun restriction ideas, 136 00:08:17,217 --> 00:08:19,977 Speaker 1: here's what she says. Do you have the numbers to 137 00:08:20,097 --> 00:08:24,177 Speaker 1: show that it's the concealed carry permit holders that are 138 00:08:24,377 --> 00:08:28,217 Speaker 1: committing crimes because the lawful gun to owner will say 139 00:08:28,217 --> 00:08:31,617 Speaker 1: that you're attacking the wrong person. It's really people that 140 00:08:31,657 --> 00:08:34,737 Speaker 1: are getting these guns illegally that are causing the violence, 141 00:08:34,857 --> 00:08:38,657 Speaker 1: not the people going and getting the permit legally, and 142 00:08:38,777 --> 00:08:42,097 Speaker 1: that's the basis for the whole Supreme Court argument. Do 143 00:08:42,137 --> 00:08:44,937 Speaker 1: you have the numbers. I don't need to have numbers. 144 00:08:45,737 --> 00:08:48,097 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't have to have a data point 145 00:08:48,097 --> 00:08:50,097 Speaker 1: to point two to say that this is going to make. 146 00:08:50,137 --> 00:08:52,097 Speaker 1: All I know is I have a responsibility to the 147 00:08:52,097 --> 00:08:56,937 Speaker 1: people to state to have sensible gun safety laws. I 148 00:08:56,937 --> 00:08:59,297 Speaker 1: don't need the numbers. I'm just gonna do what I want. 149 00:08:59,977 --> 00:09:03,097 Speaker 1: She's a moron, but that's not going to help. All right. 150 00:09:03,097 --> 00:09:05,817 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court dealta blow to the Biden administration today 151 00:09:05,857 --> 00:09:10,417 Speaker 1: limiting the regulatory authority of the Environmental Protection Agency.

Another major ruling coming out of the 175 00:10:19,217 --> 00:10:22,897 Speaker 1: Supreme Court today in a setback for the Biden administration's 176 00:10:22,897 --> 00:10:27,217 Speaker 1: efforts to combat climate change. They say, Court said in 177 00:10:27,257 --> 00:10:30,217 Speaker 1: a sixty three ruling, the Environmental Protection Agency lacks broad 178 00:10:30,257 --> 00:10:34,017 Speaker 1: authority to shift the nation's energy production away from coal 179 00:10:34,097 --> 00:10:37,937 Speaker 1: burning power plans toward cleaner sources, including solar and wind power. 180 00:10:38,417 --> 00:10:40,737 Speaker 1: Driven now to discuss one of the most important environmental 181 00:10:40,977 --> 00:10:44,057 Speaker 1: environmental decisions in a long time founder and executive director 182 00:10:44,097 --> 00:10:47,537 Speaker 1: of Power the Future, Daniel Turner. Daniel, what's up man? 183 00:10:48,257 --> 00:10:50,097 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me, Um Well, going to be with you. 184 00:10:50,817 --> 00:10:53,977 Speaker 1: So just tell us what went down that day with us? 185 00:10:54,097 --> 00:10:57,897 Speaker 1: What was that issue in this particular Supreme Court case 186 00:10:57,897 --> 00:11:00,257 Speaker 1: when it comes to the EPA and its ability to 187 00:11:00,977 --> 00:11:05,857 Speaker 1: make administrative law. Essentially, Yeah, this is ten years in 188 00:11:05,897 --> 00:11:09,937 Speaker 1: the making, right. This really started with the Obama EPA 189 00:11:10,577 --> 00:11:13,777 Speaker 1: legislation like the Clean Air Act and giving it really 190 00:11:13,817 --> 00:11:18,177 Speaker 1: really wide interpretation and administrators determining, well, if the Clean 191 00:11:18,257 --> 00:11:22,937 Speaker 1: Air Act says this, therefore were allowed to regulate whole industries, right, 192 00:11:22,977 --> 00:11:25,977 Speaker 1: And we were shutting down coal plants because it was 193 00:11:26,057 --> 00:11:28,217 Speaker 1: under the Clean Air Act. And finally, the Governor of 194 00:11:28,217 --> 00:11:30,497 Speaker 1: West Virginia and I'm in the great state of West 195 00:11:30,577 --> 00:11:33,377 Speaker 1: Virginia right now doing this, so I'm honored. Finally, the 196 00:11:33,817 --> 00:11:37,137 Speaker 1: Attorney General of West Virginia pushed back and said, no, no, no, 197 00:11:37,177 --> 00:11:40,057 Speaker 1: like you. If Congress wants to change the mandate of 198 00:11:40,137 --> 00:11:43,977 Speaker 1: the Clean Air Act or any legislation, Congress has to 199 00:11:43,977 --> 00:11:48,457 Speaker 1: write legislation on it. Bureaucrats cannot arbitrarily interpret them as 200 00:11:48,497 --> 00:11:50,937 Speaker 1: they want. That has not within their power. That's all 201 00:11:50,937 --> 00:11:53,417 Speaker 1: the courts did today was saying, no, Congress, you need 202 00:11:53,457 --> 00:11:55,697 Speaker 1: to write a law if you want that result. And 203 00:11:55,777 --> 00:11:59,497 Speaker 1: the Democrat members of Congress are apoplectic, calling this, you know, 204 00:12:00,017 --> 00:12:05,617 Speaker 1: irresponsible and radical. They're just saying, Congress, do your job. 205 00:12:06,617 --> 00:12:08,817 Speaker 1: And what kind of costs? I mean, do we have 206 00:12:08,937 --> 00:12:13,017 Speaker 1: any sense as to what this regulation would have meant 207 00:12:13,057 --> 00:12:17,857 Speaker 1: in terms of making energy more expensive, making it harder 208 00:12:17,897 --> 00:12:22,697 Speaker 1: for the power companies, the power producers to do what 209 00:12:22,737 --> 00:12:26,577 Speaker 1: they do for the people that need their product. Yeah, 210 00:12:26,617 --> 00:12:29,697 Speaker 1: that's a tough one to answer because I look at 211 00:12:29,737 --> 00:12:32,017 Speaker 1: this included in that as well as the human cost. 212 00:12:32,137 --> 00:12:34,417 Speaker 1: Like I said, this is ten years in the making, 213 00:12:34,417 --> 00:12:36,737 Speaker 1: and you have to remember when Obama ran for president, 214 00:12:37,097 --> 00:12:39,657 Speaker 1: he said, I'm not going to make coal illegal. I'm 215 00:12:39,697 --> 00:12:41,177 Speaker 1: just going to say that if you own a coal 216 00:12:41,257 --> 00:12:44,177 Speaker 1: plant when I'm president, you're going to go bankrupt. We 217 00:12:44,257 --> 00:12:48,417 Speaker 1: have shut down since then about two hundred coal plants nationwide. 218 00:12:49,137 --> 00:12:51,217 Speaker 1: Look at the cost of energy right now, right look 219 00:12:51,257 --> 00:12:54,257 Speaker 1: at the looming blackouts that are coming. This is all 220 00:12:54,297 --> 00:12:58,017 Speaker 1: the instability of the electric grid. But look at what 221 00:12:58,057 --> 00:13:01,457 Speaker 1: we've done to coal communities around the country where we've 222 00:13:01,857 --> 00:13:05,537 Speaker 1: taken industries that used to employ thousands of people, tens 223 00:13:05,537 --> 00:13:08,337 Speaker 1: of thousands of people, and we've taken away their job. 224 00:13:08,617 --> 00:13:12,377 Speaker 1: None of these green jobs ever materialized. Right, We've put 225 00:13:12,417 --> 00:13:15,337 Speaker 1: them in underwater mortgages. We've shuttered their schools because there's 226 00:13:15,337 --> 00:13:18,697 Speaker 1: no funding. And now what are old coal communities have? 227 00:13:18,777 --> 00:13:22,937 Speaker 1: They have opioid problems, suicide problems defended, all problem is 228 00:13:22,977 --> 00:13:27,657 Speaker 1: worse in old coal towns. Right. So we've destroyed the 229 00:13:27,817 --> 00:13:30,457 Speaker 1: lives of tens of thousands of Americans in the name 230 00:13:30,457 --> 00:13:33,137 Speaker 1: of climate change, and no one's cried about them. Right. 231 00:13:33,297 --> 00:13:35,937 Speaker 1: Power the future has I have you have? But the 232 00:13:35,977 --> 00:13:40,817 Speaker 1: Obama administration, the Biden administration. Just yesterday, Jena McCarthy, one 233 00:13:40,817 --> 00:13:44,497 Speaker 1: of the climates ares was, was applauding the number of 234 00:13:44,537 --> 00:13:48,777 Speaker 1: fossil fuel unemployment that has happened under her watch. They're 235 00:13:48,857 --> 00:13:52,337 Speaker 1: happy that they're destroying the lives of Americans. So that's 236 00:13:52,377 --> 00:13:56,017 Speaker 1: the biggest hole that it's taken. Chief Justice John Roberts 237 00:13:56,097 --> 00:13:59,817 Speaker 1: was quoted in the majority opinion as saying a writing 238 00:14:00,257 --> 00:14:03,337 Speaker 1: capping carbon dioxide emissions at a level that will force 239 00:14:03,457 --> 00:14:06,937 Speaker 1: a nationwide transition away from the use of coal to 240 00:14:07,017 --> 00:14:10,177 Speaker 1: generate electricity. Maybe a sensible solution to the crisis of 241 00:14:10,217 --> 00:14:13,417 Speaker 1: the day. But it is not plausible that Congress gave 242 00:14:13,457 --> 00:14:16,577 Speaker 1: the EPA the authority to adopt on its own such 243 00:14:16,577 --> 00:14:20,617 Speaker 1: a regulatory scheme. A decision of such magnitude and consequence 244 00:14:20,697 --> 00:14:24,337 Speaker 1: rests with Congress itself or an agency acting pursue into 245 00:14:24,337 --> 00:14:29,937 Speaker 1: a clear delegation from that representative body. I mean, I 246 00:14:30,017 --> 00:14:34,817 Speaker 1: gotta say anything that reigns in the administrative state these 247 00:14:34,897 --> 00:14:39,297 Speaker 1: days I view as a good thing. Daniel. I wanted 248 00:14:39,417 --> 00:14:41,657 Speaker 1: your take on this. I mean, I think what we 249 00:14:41,697 --> 00:14:44,977 Speaker 1: saw during COVID, never mind, when you think about what's 250 00:14:45,017 --> 00:14:48,257 Speaker 1: going on in the energy industry, was that three letter 251 00:14:48,537 --> 00:14:51,817 Speaker 1: Federal agencies that decide that they have a lot of 252 00:14:51,817 --> 00:14:56,497 Speaker 1: power to make law unto themselves, essentially are a huge 253 00:14:56,577 --> 00:14:59,817 Speaker 1: threat to liberty, to commerce, to the everyday lives of 254 00:14:59,857 --> 00:15:04,017 Speaker 1: the American people. You raise a great point because COVID 255 00:15:04,137 --> 00:15:06,697 Speaker 1: is the next step of the climate movement, as they've 256 00:15:06,737 --> 00:15:10,617 Speaker 1: wanted the Biden administration to declare climate change in national emergency. 257 00:15:10,937 --> 00:15:13,537 Speaker 1: And when you declare something in national emergency or a 258 00:15:13,617 --> 00:15:17,097 Speaker 1: health emergency, you can shut down people's churches, right, You 259 00:15:17,097 --> 00:15:19,737 Speaker 1: can force them to close their business, you can force 260 00:15:19,777 --> 00:15:22,337 Speaker 1: people to be locked in their homes all for the 261 00:15:22,377 --> 00:15:24,697 Speaker 1: greater good. And where does their authority come from. It 262 00:15:24,697 --> 00:15:29,497 Speaker 1: comes from this huge bureaucratic, unelected, regulatory state. So you're 263 00:15:29,537 --> 00:15:32,657 Speaker 1: absolutely right. The left loves the bureaucracy and they love 264 00:15:32,777 --> 00:15:38,057 Speaker 1: regulation because it's nebulous, it's vague, it's all encompassing. The 265 00:15:38,217 --> 00:15:41,417 Speaker 1: left does not like the law because the law is specific. 266 00:15:41,577 --> 00:15:45,337 Speaker 1: And if you want to work in the DC swamp 267 00:15:45,377 --> 00:15:49,817 Speaker 1: and you want to advance an agenda, you need thousands 268 00:15:49,857 --> 00:15:52,897 Speaker 1: of regulations. You need a big, nebulous world. And so 269 00:15:52,937 --> 00:15:55,177 Speaker 1: this is a huge wind for victory. It's a win 270 00:15:55,297 --> 00:15:59,577 Speaker 1: for the energy industry, it's a huge win for freedoms 271 00:15:59,577 --> 00:16:02,857 Speaker 1: in America. Quite frankly, that we're taking power back from 272 00:16:02,857 --> 00:16:05,097 Speaker 1: the government also wors if you give us out there. 273 00:16:05,177 --> 00:16:10,657 Speaker 1: Daniel on the state of the Biden administrations and treaties, quests, 274 00:16:11,537 --> 00:16:15,737 Speaker 1: begging whatever you want to call it, to foreign governments 275 00:16:15,777 --> 00:16:20,257 Speaker 1: to produce like Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, to produce more oil 276 00:16:20,337 --> 00:16:23,377 Speaker 1: instead of really encouraging it here at home. What's what's 277 00:16:23,417 --> 00:16:26,497 Speaker 1: the latest on that? Yeah, you know, last week, but 278 00:16:26,737 --> 00:16:30,417 Speaker 1: the major oil CEOs were summoned to DC. But President 279 00:16:30,457 --> 00:16:32,897 Speaker 1: Biden was very proud that he refused to meet with them. 280 00:16:32,937 --> 00:16:36,937 Speaker 1: He sent Jennifer Granholm, which is, you know, a know 281 00:16:37,097 --> 00:16:40,777 Speaker 1: nothing staffer really to deal with them. So he's made 282 00:16:40,817 --> 00:16:45,457 Speaker 1: these tremendous outreaches to the Saudis, to Venezuela, to Iran. 283 00:16:45,617 --> 00:16:47,977 Speaker 1: He wants the whole world to produce more oil, but 284 00:16:48,057 --> 00:16:50,577 Speaker 1: he won't make the slightest overture to America because it 285 00:16:50,577 --> 00:16:53,857 Speaker 1: blows up his green agenda. And it just it's just 286 00:16:53,937 --> 00:16:56,937 Speaker 1: fascinates me to see this guy really hat in hand, 287 00:16:56,977 --> 00:16:59,897 Speaker 1: going around the world asking for an increase in oil production, 288 00:17:00,217 --> 00:17:02,937 Speaker 1: knowingly need to produce more oil, but refusing to look 289 00:17:02,977 --> 00:17:06,217 Speaker 1: here domestically. He needs the radical green movement on his 290 00:17:06,297 --> 00:17:09,297 Speaker 1: side and h and he's not going to anger them 291 00:17:09,337 --> 00:17:12,857 Speaker 1: before the midterm. But we're suffering as a result. Are 292 00:17:12,937 --> 00:17:17,817 Speaker 1: we seeing any movement from the Biden administration to get 293 00:17:17,857 --> 00:17:19,657 Speaker 1: some of the regulation out of the way so that 294 00:17:19,697 --> 00:17:24,657 Speaker 1: there can be more exploration and refining and producing of 295 00:17:25,297 --> 00:17:28,537 Speaker 1: gasoline for the consumer market or are they taking even 296 00:17:28,737 --> 00:17:31,217 Speaker 1: basic steps in that direction, or they holding out even 297 00:17:31,217 --> 00:17:34,017 Speaker 1: though the elections looming. No, they're going to hold out 298 00:17:34,017 --> 00:17:36,417 Speaker 1: as long as possible. Like I talk to people in 299 00:17:36,417 --> 00:17:39,577 Speaker 1: this base all the time. An oil driller told me 300 00:17:39,657 --> 00:17:41,657 Speaker 1: just the other day that he's one of these quote 301 00:17:41,697 --> 00:17:44,417 Speaker 1: unquote nine thousand leases we hear about. But he said, 302 00:17:44,457 --> 00:17:47,097 Speaker 1: I can't get my right of way permitting right, the 303 00:17:47,097 --> 00:17:50,097 Speaker 1: permission to actually drill a Well, that's the next step 304 00:17:50,137 --> 00:17:52,097 Speaker 1: after your lease, and it's being held up by the 305 00:17:52,137 --> 00:17:54,377 Speaker 1: Department of Interior. And he said it's been months and 306 00:17:54,537 --> 00:17:56,937 Speaker 1: months that we're just waiting for them to give the 307 00:17:56,977 --> 00:17:59,257 Speaker 1: green lights. So again, this is the power of the 308 00:17:59,297 --> 00:18:02,617 Speaker 1: regulatory state. Where some guy in the Permian basin he 309 00:18:02,737 --> 00:18:07,217 Speaker 1: needs deb Hollands. Okay, right, where are the governors to say, no, no, no, 310 00:18:07,257 --> 00:18:10,097 Speaker 1: We don't need some bureaucrat three thousand miles away in 311 00:18:10,217 --> 00:18:12,737 Speaker 1: DC to tell us that we can develop our land. 312 00:18:12,817 --> 00:18:16,417 Speaker 1: So they're slow walking the entire process. And it's deliberate, right. 313 00:18:16,417 --> 00:18:19,897 Speaker 1: They want this green revolution. They want wind and solar, 314 00:18:19,977 --> 00:18:22,217 Speaker 1: even though they don't work, even though they're expensive, even 315 00:18:22,257 --> 00:18:25,497 Speaker 1: though they're made in Chinese slave camps. They want wind 316 00:18:25,537 --> 00:18:28,057 Speaker 1: and solar. And if the American people have to die 317 00:18:28,057 --> 00:18:31,257 Speaker 1: in the process, that's just the necessary casualty in this 318 00:18:31,337 --> 00:18:35,617 Speaker 1: great transformation. Daniel, appreciate you being with us thank you. 319 00:18:37,457 --> 00:18:41,097 Speaker 1: In response to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Democrats, 320 00:18:41,137 --> 00:18:44,657 Speaker 1: including Joe Biden, are threatening to eliminate the Senate filibuster 321 00:18:44,977 --> 00:18:47,617 Speaker 1: in order to enshrine abortion rights in US federal law. 322 00:18:47,697 --> 00:18:49,257 Speaker 1: We'll have more on that with senior writer at The 323 00:18:49,257 --> 00:18:53,017 Speaker 1: Federalist David Harsani after the break. First's talk about protecting 324 00:18:53,017 --> 00:18:54,777 Speaker 1: your most viable asset, your home. I don't know if 325 00:18:54,777 --> 00:18:56,417 Speaker 1: you saw this, but there's a recent story about an 326 00:18:56,417 --> 00:18:59,177 Speaker 1: Arizona real estate agent that found the home she lived 327 00:18:59,217 --> 00:19:01,737 Speaker 1: and was listed for sale. The problem was she wasn't 328 00:19:01,737 --> 00:19:04,297 Speaker 1: selling her home. He was the victim of home title fraud, 329 00:19:04,657 --> 00:19:07,977 Speaker 1: a devastating crime happening all over the country. According to 330 00:19:07,977 --> 00:19:09,817 Speaker 1: the experts at home title lock, the crime is in 331 00:19:10,417 --> 00:19:13,697 Speaker 1: profitable and hard to detect, and identity thief simply creates 332 00:19:13,697 --> 00:19:15,817 Speaker 1: a fake title transfer for your home and refiles as 333 00:19:15,817 --> 00:19:17,937 Speaker 1: the new owner. Then you can take out loans on 334 00:19:17,977 --> 00:19:21,097 Speaker 1: your home or sell it. Typical identity theft services don't 335 00:19:21,137 --> 00:19:24,177 Speaker 1: cover you, and neither there's homeowner's insurance.

I believe we have to 347 00:19:59,257 --> 00:20:02,857 Speaker 1: hoify Roe v. Wade in the law, and the way 348 00:20:02,897 --> 00:20:05,697 Speaker 1: to do that is to make sure the Congress roots 349 00:20:05,697 --> 00:20:08,457 Speaker 1: should do that. And if the filibuster gets in the way, 350 00:20:08,497 --> 00:20:11,777 Speaker 1: it's like voting rights should be. We provide an exception 351 00:20:12,097 --> 00:20:17,817 Speaker 1: for this required exception to the filibuster for this action. 352 00:20:18,777 --> 00:20:20,817 Speaker 1: Only took President Biden about a week to call on 353 00:20:20,897 --> 00:20:24,737 Speaker 1: Congress to cudify the right to an abortion into federal law, 354 00:20:25,177 --> 00:20:27,097 Speaker 1: even if it requires getting rid of the filibuster in 355 00:20:27,137 --> 00:20:29,897 Speaker 1: the Senate. Reuters is now reporting that Biden officials are 356 00:20:29,897 --> 00:20:34,097 Speaker 1: concerned that more radical moves would be politically polarizing ahead 357 00:20:34,097 --> 00:20:38,457 Speaker 1: of November's midterm elections, undermining public trust in institutions like 358 00:20:38,537 --> 00:20:41,817 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. So could we see this end to 359 00:20:41,857 --> 00:20:44,857 Speaker 1: the filibuster a one off end maybe, or the potential 360 00:20:44,857 --> 00:20:48,617 Speaker 1: political consequences too much for Democrats to bear. Joining me 361 00:20:48,657 --> 00:20:53,697 Speaker 1: now to discuss Senior editor at The Federalist David Harsani, David, 362 00:20:53,777 --> 00:20:56,497 Speaker 1: appreciate you being with us. Oh, it is a pleasure. 363 00:20:56,537 --> 00:21:00,537 Speaker 1: Thank you. So I have to say I wish they 364 00:21:00,537 --> 00:21:05,057 Speaker 1: would stop with the This issue is so important that 365 00:21:05,097 --> 00:21:08,697 Speaker 1: will break the filibuster, because I remember when a year 366 00:21:08,737 --> 00:21:12,817 Speaker 1: ago it was a char one is so important that 367 00:21:12,937 --> 00:21:14,777 Speaker 1: we will have to break the filibus or of course 368 00:21:14,777 --> 00:21:17,697 Speaker 1: they didn't, But I mean, how do we even take 369 00:21:17,737 --> 00:21:19,697 Speaker 1: them seriously on this stuff? After a while, it's like, 370 00:21:19,737 --> 00:21:21,817 Speaker 1: either get rid of the filibuster or don't, but stop 371 00:21:21,977 --> 00:21:26,417 Speaker 1: stop pretending. Well, don't don't get rid of it. Yeah 372 00:21:26,417 --> 00:21:29,417 Speaker 1: I don't like it, but I'm just saying I'm just kidding. Yeah, 373 00:21:29,417 --> 00:21:32,217 Speaker 1: I get, I get yeah, yeah. I mean I don't 374 00:21:32,217 --> 00:21:33,617 Speaker 1: think they're going to do it. I just think this 375 00:21:33,777 --> 00:21:35,497 Speaker 1: is for show. Because a lot of people are mad 376 00:21:35,537 --> 00:21:37,897 Speaker 1: about Rob Wade on the left, so he wants to 377 00:21:37,897 --> 00:21:39,817 Speaker 1: pretend that he's doing something. I don't think it's going 378 00:21:39,817 --> 00:21:42,817 Speaker 1: to happen, but I do think it's really destructive, mostly 379 00:21:42,857 --> 00:21:45,177 Speaker 1: because you're normalizing the idea that if you don't get 380 00:21:45,217 --> 00:21:49,257 Speaker 1: what you want, you could just simply, you know, destroy 381 00:21:49,257 --> 00:21:51,697 Speaker 1: it norm or destroy an institution like the Supreme Court 382 00:21:51,737 --> 00:21:53,737 Speaker 1: if you don't like it. I mean, Biden is literally 383 00:21:53,777 --> 00:21:58,417 Speaker 1: in Madrid criticizing and attacking an institution in the United States. 384 00:21:58,417 --> 00:22:01,337 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's unprecedented. I'm not one hundred 385 00:22:01,377 --> 00:22:05,097 Speaker 1: percent sure, but it was pretty bad. Also, the funny 386 00:22:05,097 --> 00:22:07,457 Speaker 1: thing about this, maybe not so funny, is that he 387 00:22:07,537 --> 00:22:10,737 Speaker 1: wants to make an exception for the Philip Buster only 388 00:22:10,777 --> 00:22:14,017 Speaker 1: for stuff he wants, so that only Democrats can use 389 00:22:14,017 --> 00:22:16,937 Speaker 1: it for bills they want to pass, but Republicans they 390 00:22:16,977 --> 00:22:20,497 Speaker 1: can't use it. Right, it doesn't work that way. Harry 391 00:22:20,497 --> 00:22:23,297 Speaker 1: Reid tried this with the judicial filibuster and it was destroyed. 392 00:22:23,497 --> 00:22:25,497 Speaker 1: And if Democrats do it now, it will be destroyed 393 00:22:25,537 --> 00:22:27,457 Speaker 1: for legislation and they'll pay a heavy price in the 394 00:22:27,497 --> 00:22:31,377 Speaker 1: long run for it. Plus, it wasn't that long ago 395 00:22:32,337 --> 00:22:35,817 Speaker 1: that Biden himself was saying ending the filibuster was a 396 00:22:35,937 --> 00:22:39,057 Speaker 1: dangerous thing to do. In fact, it was in twenty 397 00:22:39,137 --> 00:22:42,497 Speaker 1: nineteen when he said this, should they ended the legislative filibusters, 398 00:22:42,537 --> 00:22:46,377 Speaker 1: that's what's needed from I think we have to make 399 00:22:46,417 --> 00:22:48,817 Speaker 1: that call on the fire. Ending the filibuster is a 400 00:22:48,937 --> 00:22:52,057 Speaker 1: very dangerous thing to do because it's been used by 401 00:22:52,177 --> 00:22:55,377 Speaker 1: progressives the whole career, our whole time to make sure 402 00:22:55,417 --> 00:22:58,697 Speaker 1: that we did not get rolled over. Yeah, he says 403 00:22:58,697 --> 00:23:01,497 Speaker 1: back in twenty nineteen, there David that ending the filibuster's 404 00:23:01,657 --> 00:23:04,097 Speaker 1: bad idea. I mean, does that even even pay attention 405 00:23:04,177 --> 00:23:07,537 Speaker 1: Like Joe Biden arguing with Joe Biden from five minutes ago, 406 00:23:07,617 --> 00:23:09,737 Speaker 1: five years ago, it just doesn't matter to any of 407 00:23:09,777 --> 00:23:12,057 Speaker 1: the people that are supporting him right to say whatever, 408 00:23:12,377 --> 00:23:16,337 Speaker 1: no principles, just go for it. Yeah, I mean he 409 00:23:16,657 --> 00:23:20,897 Speaker 1: called he called the filibuster a pillar of democracy in 410 00:23:21,137 --> 00:23:23,297 Speaker 1: you know, two thousand and five or whenever it was. 411 00:23:23,337 --> 00:23:26,377 Speaker 1: But this is a man who will drop fifty year old, 412 00:23:26,817 --> 00:23:29,737 Speaker 1: you know positions, you know, because someone on Twitter is 413 00:23:29,777 --> 00:23:32,417 Speaker 1: mocking him like that, like he did with the High Amendment. 414 00:23:32,737 --> 00:23:34,937 Speaker 1: So he has zero principles and he's always been this way. 415 00:23:34,937 --> 00:23:39,937 Speaker 1: He's never at any principles. People confuse his spinelessness and 416 00:23:40,137 --> 00:23:42,577 Speaker 1: in trying to always be loved by the center of 417 00:23:42,617 --> 00:23:46,857 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party for a moderate, for moderation, and that's 418 00:23:46,897 --> 00:23:49,097 Speaker 1: not what it is at all. So I don't think 419 00:23:49,097 --> 00:23:51,737 Speaker 1: people care about that. They don't pay attention. Most on 420 00:23:51,777 --> 00:23:54,377 Speaker 1: the left, they just don't care anyway. They have two 421 00:23:54,377 --> 00:23:57,817 Speaker 1: sets of rules we're supposed to play by. Democrats use 422 00:23:57,897 --> 00:24:02,377 Speaker 1: the filibuster on Donald Trump, I think in twenty nineteen 423 00:24:02,417 --> 00:24:05,537 Speaker 1: and twenty twenty, like three hundred and something times, twenty 424 00:24:05,537 --> 00:24:10,857 Speaker 1: eight times. I think, so they're they're incredibly shameless hypocrites 425 00:24:10,857 --> 00:24:14,377 Speaker 1: about this. And I'm I'm a huge fan of the filibuster. 426 00:24:14,417 --> 00:24:17,497 Speaker 1: I think it's one of the only things saving federalism 427 00:24:17,537 --> 00:24:19,457 Speaker 1: in any kind of way. If we didn't have it, 428 00:24:19,737 --> 00:24:23,377 Speaker 1: I think it would lead to such a distabled destabilization 429 00:24:23,497 --> 00:24:27,217 Speaker 1: of government. So I'm a big fan of it. And 430 00:24:27,777 --> 00:24:29,617 Speaker 1: Democrats in the Senate used to be big fans of 431 00:24:29,657 --> 00:24:32,017 Speaker 1: it as well. Yeah, I mean back in two thousand 432 00:24:32,097 --> 00:24:35,417 Speaker 1: and five. Even Chuck Schumer began in two thousand and five, 433 00:24:35,457 --> 00:24:38,257 Speaker 1: you mentioned a year said if Republicans can't get their 434 00:24:38,257 --> 00:24:40,657 Speaker 1: way in the courts, we will not let them change 435 00:24:40,657 --> 00:24:43,657 Speaker 1: the rules. Watch this one. Because they can't get their 436 00:24:43,697 --> 00:24:48,257 Speaker 1: way on every judge to change the rules in midstream, 437 00:24:49,097 --> 00:24:52,537 Speaker 1: to wash away two hundred years of history. They want 438 00:24:52,577 --> 00:24:55,937 Speaker 1: to make this country into a banana republic, where if 439 00:24:55,977 --> 00:24:59,257 Speaker 1: you don't get your way, you change the rules. Are 440 00:24:59,297 --> 00:25:04,497 Speaker 1: we gonna let them? I mean, first of all, Chuck 441 00:25:04,537 --> 00:25:09,977 Speaker 1: Schumer's such a shameless, bloviating clown, but you know, been 442 00:25:10,097 --> 00:25:12,977 Speaker 1: the Senate a very long time, gets away with it somehow. 443 00:25:13,337 --> 00:25:15,097 Speaker 1: I just think it's interesting the same people that are 444 00:25:15,097 --> 00:25:18,257 Speaker 1: always telling us about how there's a need to protect 445 00:25:18,257 --> 00:25:21,817 Speaker 1: the institutions of our democracy until all of a sudden 446 00:25:21,817 --> 00:25:23,497 Speaker 1: it's not giving them what they want, and then it's like, 447 00:25:23,617 --> 00:25:26,457 Speaker 1: let's pack the court, let's get rid of the filibuster. 448 00:25:27,057 --> 00:25:31,737 Speaker 1: Anything goes. Literally, the court gave back an issued to 449 00:25:31,897 --> 00:25:35,977 Speaker 1: the voters, and they keeps calling it anti democracy. I've 450 00:25:36,017 --> 00:25:37,977 Speaker 1: not had one of these people explained to me how 451 00:25:38,017 --> 00:25:41,137 Speaker 1: it's anti democracy. I mean, you know, and they say 452 00:25:41,177 --> 00:25:43,297 Speaker 1: the same thing about the you know about the EPA 453 00:25:43,457 --> 00:25:47,257 Speaker 1: decision that came down. You know that that democracies overWe 454 00:25:47,297 --> 00:25:49,217 Speaker 1: because you have to go to voters and Congress to 455 00:25:49,217 --> 00:25:52,097 Speaker 1: ask them to do something. I don't even understand, because really, 456 00:25:52,137 --> 00:25:55,417 Speaker 1: all it means to them, democracy is getting what they want, 457 00:25:55,897 --> 00:25:58,657 Speaker 1: and that's a day that is a bit out of republic, 458 00:25:58,737 --> 00:26:02,057 Speaker 1: you know, if we allow that to happen. Here's AOC, 459 00:26:02,617 --> 00:26:05,817 Speaker 1: by the way, who I actually think because of her 460 00:26:05,937 --> 00:26:10,857 Speaker 1: social media and media presidents and ability to draw the 461 00:26:10,937 --> 00:26:13,657 Speaker 1: conversation in many ways as crazy as it is among 462 00:26:13,697 --> 00:26:15,697 Speaker 1: the more powerful democrats, certainly when it comes to the 463 00:26:15,737 --> 00:26:19,337 Speaker 1: national conversation from the left, here she is straight up saying, yeah, 464 00:26:19,377 --> 00:26:21,617 Speaker 1: let's let's pack the court, let's end the filibuster, go 465 00:26:21,737 --> 00:26:23,617 Speaker 1: for it. I believe that the president should come out 466 00:26:23,617 --> 00:26:27,337 Speaker 1: in favor, forcefully in favor of expanding the Supreme Court. 467 00:26:27,657 --> 00:26:30,577 Speaker 1: I believe that the president should forcefully come out in 468 00:26:30,617 --> 00:26:35,057 Speaker 1: favor of abolishing the Senate filibuster. Those two actions dramatically 469 00:26:35,097 --> 00:26:38,857 Speaker 1: increase political pressure and makes it much harder to resist. 470 00:26:39,857 --> 00:26:42,497 Speaker 1: I just I love this. It's like they don't even 471 00:26:42,537 --> 00:26:45,097 Speaker 1: remember you mentioned the Harry Read situation. They don't remember 472 00:26:45,657 --> 00:26:48,617 Speaker 1: what happened with that, changing the rules just because they 473 00:26:48,617 --> 00:26:50,417 Speaker 1: want or two at that one point in time, right, 474 00:26:50,577 --> 00:26:53,377 Speaker 1: they didn't like the long term consequences of that. It's 475 00:26:53,577 --> 00:26:57,177 Speaker 1: like we're reasoning with spoiled children here. They're just like, oh, well, 476 00:26:57,297 --> 00:26:59,417 Speaker 1: just this one time for the thing we really want, 477 00:26:59,457 --> 00:27:00,897 Speaker 1: and of course there's a lot of different things that 478 00:27:00,937 --> 00:27:03,577 Speaker 1: they just really want that one time, as if that's 479 00:27:03,617 --> 00:27:05,657 Speaker 1: not going to come back to bite them. It's kind 480 00:27:05,697 --> 00:27:09,457 Speaker 1: of amazing. Well, well, of course, But you know, I 481 00:27:09,497 --> 00:27:11,337 Speaker 1: think that there's a difference between her and some of 482 00:27:11,337 --> 00:27:13,217 Speaker 1: the other people, and I'm not you know, if I 483 00:27:13,257 --> 00:27:15,577 Speaker 1: take her seriously, you know, which I'm trying to do. 484 00:27:15,937 --> 00:27:17,737 Speaker 1: One is that I think that the Harry Reads of 485 00:27:17,777 --> 00:27:19,737 Speaker 1: the world and the Chuck Shumers of the world know 486 00:27:19,977 --> 00:27:23,177 Speaker 1: better and are just cynical political operators who don't care 487 00:27:23,177 --> 00:27:25,377 Speaker 1: what they destroy to get what they want. I think 488 00:27:25,457 --> 00:27:30,577 Speaker 1: she is a I don't know what's called her, a Marxist, Okay. 489 00:27:30,617 --> 00:27:34,577 Speaker 1: I think she wants to incrementally go towards a centralized 490 00:27:34,617 --> 00:27:38,977 Speaker 1: federal control that overrides the will of states, that essentially 491 00:27:39,017 --> 00:27:42,577 Speaker 1: destroys the United States government in its present form. So 492 00:27:42,977 --> 00:27:46,937 Speaker 1: if I take her seriously, so that's the difference between 493 00:27:46,977 --> 00:27:48,857 Speaker 1: the two, and she is, i think, you're right, a 494 00:27:48,937 --> 00:27:51,417 Speaker 1: much more powerful voice than people give her credit for. 495 00:27:51,577 --> 00:27:53,697 Speaker 1: Because a lot of younger people and people who are 496 00:27:53,697 --> 00:27:57,097 Speaker 1: really plugged in online, etc. I think they are far. 497 00:27:57,537 --> 00:27:59,417 Speaker 1: You know, they listen to her, they listen to her 498 00:27:59,497 --> 00:28:04,137 Speaker 1: normalizing these her insane ideas, and it is also dangerous. 499 00:28:04,457 --> 00:28:08,457 Speaker 1: It's a dangerous that she's treated seriously. Yeah, she's also 500 00:28:08,817 --> 00:28:14,377 Speaker 1: truly weekly and obviously ignorant on so much and in 501 00:28:14,417 --> 00:28:17,337 Speaker 1: so many ways. None of her supporters seem to care. 502 00:28:17,577 --> 00:28:20,417 Speaker 1: You know, you just just blabbers on online and they 503 00:28:20,457 --> 00:28:23,217 Speaker 1: think she's amazing and yes, queen and all this stuff, 504 00:28:23,217 --> 00:28:26,617 Speaker 1: you see, all stunning stuff. Anyway, Well, we're gonna try 505 00:28:26,617 --> 00:28:28,337 Speaker 1: to say the country, David while we can. Thanks for 506 00:28:28,377 --> 00:28:34,057 Speaker 1: being with us, my friend anytime. Thank you.

Florida Governor Ronda Santists took the next step 521 00:29:30,137 --> 00:29:33,737 Speaker 1: in protecting parents' rights in education across his state by 522 00:29:33,817 --> 00:29:37,897 Speaker 1: jumping into local school board races with crucial endorsements booting 523 00:29:37,977 --> 00:29:41,377 Speaker 1: last week. We need strong local school board members who 524 00:29:41,377 --> 00:29:44,697 Speaker 1: are committed to advancing our agenda to put students first 525 00:29:44,737 --> 00:29:48,337 Speaker 1: and protect parents' rights. I'm proud to endorse ten local 526 00:29:48,377 --> 00:29:51,737 Speaker 1: school board candidates who will set our children up for success. 527 00:29:52,337 --> 00:29:55,617 Speaker 1: Sarasota County school Board Member Bridget Ziegler was one of 528 00:29:55,657 --> 00:29:59,617 Speaker 1: the ten candidates endorsed by Descantists, and she joins me now. Bridget, 529 00:29:59,657 --> 00:30:02,177 Speaker 1: thanks for being with us. Thank you so much for 530 00:30:02,217 --> 00:30:06,217 Speaker 1: having me so. The governor launched the Desantists Education Agenda, 531 00:30:06,257 --> 00:30:09,977 Speaker 1: which is a student first, parents centered initiative focused on 532 00:30:10,137 --> 00:30:13,697 Speaker 1: setting Florida's children up for success, ensuring parental rights and education, 533 00:30:14,097 --> 00:30:18,297 Speaker 1: and combating the woke agenda from infiltrating public schools. How 534 00:30:18,337 --> 00:30:21,017 Speaker 1: do the school boards play into this and what are 535 00:30:21,057 --> 00:30:23,857 Speaker 1: you looking to do? Well. First of all, I want 536 00:30:23,857 --> 00:30:27,177 Speaker 1: to thank Governor to Santis. It's remarkable that a governor 537 00:30:28,017 --> 00:30:29,937 Speaker 1: chimed in and local school board races and a lot 538 00:30:29,937 --> 00:30:32,457 Speaker 1: of people talk about how unprecedented is but so many 539 00:30:32,497 --> 00:30:36,537 Speaker 1: things and the leadership that Rona Santis has done is unprecedented, 540 00:30:36,577 --> 00:30:39,337 Speaker 1: and he realizes how important the decisions that are made 541 00:30:39,337 --> 00:30:40,977 Speaker 1: at the local level. I think we all saw that 542 00:30:41,097 --> 00:30:44,777 Speaker 1: during COVID and all the items that you just highlighted 543 00:30:44,817 --> 00:30:48,137 Speaker 1: part of his education agenda. While great being led by 544 00:30:48,137 --> 00:30:51,337 Speaker 1: the governor, and then we have our Republican led state legislature, 545 00:30:51,657 --> 00:30:54,457 Speaker 1: but it comes down to local elected officials at the 546 00:30:54,457 --> 00:30:57,457 Speaker 1: school board level to hold that line, and they do 547 00:30:57,537 --> 00:30:59,737 Speaker 1: play a critical role. I'm proud to be in humble 548 00:30:59,817 --> 00:31:01,257 Speaker 1: to be a part of the ten that he endorsed, 549 00:31:01,457 --> 00:31:03,777 Speaker 1: and proud to say that I am looking forward to 550 00:31:03,857 --> 00:31:05,737 Speaker 1: holding that line as I have since I first got 551 00:31:05,737 --> 00:31:08,417 Speaker 1: on the board. So you're already on the board. What 552 00:31:08,497 --> 00:31:10,697 Speaker 1: are the kind of changes that you're seeking to do? 553 00:31:10,697 --> 00:31:14,377 Speaker 1: I mean, I would assume there are other new school 554 00:31:14,377 --> 00:31:17,657 Speaker 1: board members who are also looking I mean, given the 555 00:31:17,817 --> 00:31:21,337 Speaker 1: incredible focus honestly, at the national level on some of 556 00:31:21,337 --> 00:31:24,737 Speaker 1: the school board meetings in Virginia and obviously other states 557 00:31:24,737 --> 00:31:28,657 Speaker 1: including Florida, parents all of the country really focused in 558 00:31:28,697 --> 00:31:30,257 Speaker 1: on this. So what are some of the things that 559 00:31:30,297 --> 00:31:33,377 Speaker 1: you're trying to accomplish at your Florida school board in 560 00:31:33,377 --> 00:31:37,257 Speaker 1: Sarasota Well, first and foremost, so just to set the stage, 561 00:31:37,297 --> 00:31:41,337 Speaker 1: we have a board of five. While it's nonpartisan, you 562 00:31:41,377 --> 00:31:43,457 Speaker 1: can go based on the policy philosophy, and we have 563 00:31:43,497 --> 00:31:46,577 Speaker 1: a majority liberal board, as you'll find across the country. 564 00:31:47,297 --> 00:31:49,577 Speaker 1: And so first and foremost, it's understanding that as an 565 00:31:49,577 --> 00:31:51,897 Speaker 1: elected official, you work for the people. That is something 566 00:31:51,897 --> 00:31:53,977 Speaker 1: that has been lacking. I think you mentioned it when 567 00:31:54,017 --> 00:31:56,097 Speaker 1: you talk about people coming to school board meetings and 568 00:31:56,217 --> 00:31:59,777 Speaker 1: being frustrated because they've been met with disdain with parents 569 00:31:59,817 --> 00:32:03,857 Speaker 1: whom they serve, being bothered by the concerns that they have. 570 00:32:04,177 --> 00:32:06,177 Speaker 1: So I think it's in critical We have three seats 571 00:32:06,257 --> 00:32:08,537 Speaker 1: up in Sarasota County. We have the opportunity to flip 572 00:32:08,577 --> 00:32:11,257 Speaker 1: the board to a conservative majority that are focused on 573 00:32:11,417 --> 00:32:15,497 Speaker 1: serving the people, for detecting parental rights and ensuring that 574 00:32:15,497 --> 00:32:19,817 Speaker 1: we're having academic focus not political agendas. That is going 575 00:32:19,857 --> 00:32:22,417 Speaker 1: to be a huge focus and a huge opportunity. Now 576 00:32:22,497 --> 00:32:24,257 Speaker 1: there's going to be other boards across the state and 577 00:32:24,337 --> 00:32:26,497 Speaker 1: country where they may not have a majority. But you 578 00:32:26,577 --> 00:32:30,497 Speaker 1: need a strong, vocal, common sense conservative that is there 579 00:32:30,497 --> 00:32:34,177 Speaker 1: to serve the mission of the school district. Understand taxpayers 580 00:32:34,217 --> 00:32:36,497 Speaker 1: pay into this system. Make sure that they understand that 581 00:32:36,537 --> 00:32:39,577 Speaker 1: they are there to serve the people with the focus 582 00:32:39,577 --> 00:32:43,297 Speaker 1: of academic excellence. And so when you look at his agenda, 583 00:32:43,377 --> 00:32:44,937 Speaker 1: when you look at what I hope to see in 584 00:32:44,937 --> 00:32:47,777 Speaker 1: Sarahceta County, a lot of that is going to it's 585 00:32:47,777 --> 00:32:50,657 Speaker 1: the mindset of the board, the public servants, if you will, 586 00:32:50,737 --> 00:32:52,897 Speaker 1: because right now they are not public servants, they're self 587 00:32:52,897 --> 00:32:59,057 Speaker 1: serving themselves. And was there one incident that got you first? Essentially, 588 00:32:59,137 --> 00:33:01,257 Speaker 1: did something happen either with your own children in the 589 00:33:01,297 --> 00:33:05,377 Speaker 1: school system or near where you live that got you 590 00:33:05,457 --> 00:33:08,217 Speaker 1: interested in doing this in the first place? And what 591 00:33:08,297 --> 00:33:10,977 Speaker 1: are the kind of things that you you've heard of? 592 00:33:11,017 --> 00:33:13,257 Speaker 1: I mean, usually people decide they want to join the 593 00:33:13,257 --> 00:33:15,657 Speaker 1: school board because they want to address something you've told 594 00:33:15,737 --> 00:33:17,217 Speaker 1: us some of the things you want to do on 595 00:33:17,257 --> 00:33:21,377 Speaker 1: the positive side, But is there wokeness and CRT and 596 00:33:21,657 --> 00:33:24,217 Speaker 1: Sarah Soda. I feel like people wouldn't think that's happening, 597 00:33:24,257 --> 00:33:27,217 Speaker 1: but there are very red states that have some very 598 00:33:27,337 --> 00:33:31,497 Speaker 1: left wing school board stuff going on. So I got 599 00:33:31,537 --> 00:33:34,417 Speaker 1: on the board early on with an eight month old. 600 00:33:34,457 --> 00:33:36,857 Speaker 1: I was a new mom, and as many people understand, 601 00:33:36,857 --> 00:33:39,097 Speaker 1: as soon as you become a parent, the entire world, 602 00:33:39,137 --> 00:33:40,937 Speaker 1: in the view that you look at the world changes. 603 00:33:41,217 --> 00:33:43,337 Speaker 1: Government takes a long time to work. I dealt with 604 00:33:43,337 --> 00:33:47,057 Speaker 1: a lot of nonprofits and focused on children's issues, but 605 00:33:47,617 --> 00:33:49,377 Speaker 1: there was a vacancy and I ran and I stepped 606 00:33:49,377 --> 00:33:51,097 Speaker 1: off that legend, and I'm glad I did because it 607 00:33:51,177 --> 00:33:54,737 Speaker 1: surprised me and it was a calling through that time. 608 00:33:54,897 --> 00:33:58,257 Speaker 1: I was surprised to see the antics and this is 609 00:33:58,297 --> 00:34:02,097 Speaker 1: back in twenty fourteen, that the behavior of the board 610 00:34:02,137 --> 00:34:04,097 Speaker 1: and that disdain that has been going on. That's not 611 00:34:04,137 --> 00:34:07,817 Speaker 1: a new thing. But to go to current events, over 612 00:34:07,937 --> 00:34:10,577 Speaker 1: some time, there's more of the bureaucrats see in those 613 00:34:10,657 --> 00:34:13,697 Speaker 1: typical challenges that I saw. But over some time in 614 00:34:13,697 --> 00:34:16,817 Speaker 1: the last four to six years, particularly aggressively in the 615 00:34:16,897 --> 00:34:21,057 Speaker 1: last three with the social agendas the CRT broadly termed 616 00:34:21,137 --> 00:34:25,737 Speaker 1: but and also the gender ideology. It was a very 617 00:34:25,737 --> 00:34:29,017 Speaker 1: big concern of mine. I launched a major focus in 618 00:34:29,017 --> 00:34:32,737 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen around parental rights, because while it was around 619 00:34:32,817 --> 00:34:35,697 Speaker 1: gender diverse guidelines and it's not anti anything, I'm just 620 00:34:35,817 --> 00:34:38,177 Speaker 1: very focused on parental rights and ensuring parents have a 621 00:34:38,257 --> 00:34:40,897 Speaker 1: voice in a seat at the table. In those provisions, 622 00:34:40,897 --> 00:34:42,337 Speaker 1: it said it's up to a student and a student 623 00:34:42,377 --> 00:34:46,977 Speaker 1: alone to determine which gender and facilities that a student 624 00:34:47,017 --> 00:34:50,857 Speaker 1: would use, and precluded staff from notifying parents, and it's 625 00:34:50,857 --> 00:34:53,777 Speaker 1: said in elementary cases it's a case by case basis. 626 00:34:54,057 --> 00:34:56,337 Speaker 1: And to me, just the emphasis of this is this 627 00:34:56,457 --> 00:34:59,737 Speaker 1: government body indicating they know better than parents, and as 628 00:34:59,737 --> 00:35:02,097 Speaker 1: a parent, that was wrong. And where does that end? 629 00:35:02,097 --> 00:35:03,977 Speaker 1: And we're seeing that I was back in twenty eighteen, 630 00:35:04,057 --> 00:35:06,897 Speaker 1: so we've just seen it or rode further. I'm so 631 00:35:06,977 --> 00:35:09,897 Speaker 1: grateful that the public has It's unfortunate that it took 632 00:35:09,897 --> 00:35:12,257 Speaker 1: the much, but I'm grateful that people see it and 633 00:35:12,817 --> 00:35:14,937 Speaker 1: we have a moment we need to course correct for 634 00:35:14,937 --> 00:35:16,577 Speaker 1: our children and for their future and for the future 635 00:35:16,577 --> 00:35:18,417 Speaker 1: of this country. And again I go back to Ron 636 00:35:18,457 --> 00:35:21,577 Speaker 1: de sciances or governor. I am so grateful because he's 637 00:35:21,577 --> 00:35:25,297 Speaker 1: been bold. He has highlighted all the issues that so 638 00:35:25,337 --> 00:35:28,417 Speaker 1: many people wouldn't weren't willing to take on and he's 639 00:35:28,457 --> 00:35:31,697 Speaker 1: done it with gusto and fact based and so I 640 00:35:31,737 --> 00:35:34,217 Speaker 1: am privileged in honor to live in Florida and to 641 00:35:34,257 --> 00:35:37,897 Speaker 1: have his endorsement. But I implore anyone who's listening, watching 642 00:35:38,217 --> 00:35:40,777 Speaker 1: to take a role, take an active role in knowing 643 00:35:40,777 --> 00:35:43,257 Speaker 1: when your school board elections are. And Sarah in Florida 644 00:35:43,297 --> 00:35:46,337 Speaker 1: their August twenty third. Most people think elections and they 645 00:35:46,337 --> 00:35:50,417 Speaker 1: think November in the state of Florida. Because partisan August 646 00:35:50,457 --> 00:35:53,577 Speaker 1: twenty third, I can't say it enough to make sure 647 00:35:53,577 --> 00:35:56,817 Speaker 1: that people show up because local government is truly where 648 00:35:56,857 --> 00:35:59,777 Speaker 1: things happen, and education is key when you think about 649 00:36:01,057 --> 00:36:03,857 Speaker 1: the local economy, the future of your community, in the 650 00:36:03,897 --> 00:36:06,417 Speaker 1: future of this country. So I will keep fighting. We 651 00:36:06,457 --> 00:36:09,897 Speaker 1: need strong backbones conservatives that are willing to understand as 652 00:36:09,937 --> 00:36:14,337 Speaker 1: a public servant, you serve the people. And I'm looking 653 00:36:14,377 --> 00:36:16,337 Speaker 1: forward to the outcome. I'm obvious twenty three because I 654 00:36:16,337 --> 00:36:17,737 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of energy and a lot of 655 00:36:17,777 --> 00:36:21,737 Speaker 1: support and need to change this right the ship if 656 00:36:21,737 --> 00:36:24,577 Speaker 1: you will. I know some other states are looking at 657 00:36:24,617 --> 00:36:29,057 Speaker 1: the very detailed descantis education agenda and implementing parts of it. 658 00:36:29,097 --> 00:36:33,217 Speaker 1: Perhaps they'll take it on wholesale over time. We have 659 00:36:33,297 --> 00:36:36,377 Speaker 1: that education agenda by bullet point, keep schools open and 660 00:36:36,417 --> 00:36:41,137 Speaker 1: reject lockdowns, educate, don't indoctrinate, Ensure parental rights and education, 661 00:36:41,177 --> 00:36:44,417 Speaker 1: and keep woke gender ideology out of schools. Support robust 662 00:36:44,457 --> 00:36:48,977 Speaker 1: civics education, expand workforce development techno education. Reject the use 663 00:36:48,977 --> 00:36:52,617 Speaker 1: of CRT, increased teacher pay, continue support for school security, 664 00:36:52,617 --> 00:36:54,937 Speaker 1: mental health initiatives, Protect the rights of parents, Guarantee the 665 00:36:54,977 --> 00:36:59,097 Speaker 1: right of parents in curriculum transparency. I mean, those all 666 00:36:59,137 --> 00:37:02,537 Speaker 1: seem like really good things to me. Bridget is your 667 00:37:02,577 --> 00:37:06,937 Speaker 1: school board on board? How could you? Again so common sense? 668 00:37:06,977 --> 00:37:09,537 Speaker 1: How could anyone deny these? And again it is he 669 00:37:10,217 --> 00:37:11,977 Speaker 1: Ron de SAMs is a remarkable leader, and that's why 670 00:37:12,017 --> 00:37:15,097 Speaker 1: so many people are flocking to Florida. Again, make so 671 00:37:15,177 --> 00:37:19,697 Speaker 1: much consense. But ironically and surprisingly, we have many school 672 00:37:19,697 --> 00:37:22,537 Speaker 1: board members across the state who are trying to reject it. 673 00:37:22,577 --> 00:37:25,617 Speaker 1: But this is the key part. They're rejecting it because 674 00:37:25,817 --> 00:37:28,177 Speaker 1: it is a from a partisan standpoint, because they perhaps 675 00:37:28,217 --> 00:37:31,257 Speaker 1: the Democrats and liberal Democrats or progressives doesn't line up 676 00:37:31,257 --> 00:37:33,937 Speaker 1: with their agenda. Everything that the governor has listed out 677 00:37:34,017 --> 00:37:37,697 Speaker 1: is focused on academic outcomes for our students to achieve 678 00:37:37,777 --> 00:37:41,537 Speaker 1: and that is the purpose of education. So it is 679 00:37:41,577 --> 00:37:44,257 Speaker 1: again it's a breath of fresh air that he's taking 680 00:37:44,257 --> 00:37:46,377 Speaker 1: this fight all the way down and making everyone aware 681 00:37:46,857 --> 00:37:50,777 Speaker 1: the impact that local school board elections have. His agenda 682 00:37:50,977 --> 00:37:54,217 Speaker 1: is again common sense and resonating with not just Republicans, 683 00:37:54,257 --> 00:37:57,577 Speaker 1: but NPAs and former Democrats. I say that because we're 684 00:37:57,577 --> 00:38:00,537 Speaker 1: seeing numbers of people leave the Democrat Party because of 685 00:38:00,577 --> 00:38:04,497 Speaker 1: their progressive, extreme agenda that does not resonate with the 686 00:38:05,177 --> 00:38:08,257 Speaker 1: real life issues that people are worried about, particularly their 687 00:38:08,297 --> 00:38:10,537 Speaker 1: children as they raise and want them to be productive, 688 00:38:10,577 --> 00:38:14,217 Speaker 1: successful members of society. Bridget, good luck to you in 689 00:38:14,257 --> 00:38:16,057 Speaker 1: this mission. Thank you so much for being with us. 690 00:38:16,097 --> 00:38:20,577 Speaker 1: Good to see him, Thank you so much. Yes, who's 691 00:38:20,617 --> 00:38:23,017 Speaker 1: probably the most excited about the news of President Biden 692 00:38:23,217 --> 00:38:27,257 Speaker 1: doesn't want to count drunk driving as a felony, Nancy Pelosi, 693 00:38:27,537 --> 00:38:37,297 Speaker 1: that story coming up in quick Hits. DHS Secretary may 694 00:38:37,337 --> 00:38:39,657 Speaker 1: work us found the admits that he understands why border 695 00:38:39,657 --> 00:38:42,857 Speaker 1: patrol agent morale is down, and the White House COVID 696 00:38:42,897 --> 00:38:45,977 Speaker 1: response coordinator says that a COVID shot once a year 697 00:38:46,697 --> 00:38:49,297 Speaker 1: is the goal. I've seen that one coming, In fact, 698 00:38:49,337 --> 00:38:51,257 Speaker 1: I think we did. But it's probably gonna be more 699 00:38:51,257 --> 00:38:54,897 Speaker 1: than once. That's gonna be every year. Time for quick hits. 700 00:38:54,937 --> 00:38:58,777 Speaker 1: Let's get to it. One of the most annoying things 701 00:38:58,777 --> 00:39:03,457 Speaker 1: that you'll see about the Democrats and the leftist mentality 702 00:39:04,097 --> 00:39:09,817 Speaker 1: is their usage of children for political messaging that has 703 00:39:09,857 --> 00:39:12,817 Speaker 1: nothing thing to do with kids. Right. They'll put children 704 00:39:12,857 --> 00:39:15,897 Speaker 1: forward about gun control and act like, oh, but it's 705 00:39:15,937 --> 00:39:19,097 Speaker 1: because you know, we're also scared of the gun violence 706 00:39:19,177 --> 00:39:22,217 Speaker 1: that's going to be visited upon small children. I've seen 707 00:39:22,297 --> 00:39:24,857 Speaker 1: kids at protests who are toddlers holding up these signs. 708 00:39:25,817 --> 00:39:27,857 Speaker 1: Why are they making their children do this stuff? Well, 709 00:39:27,977 --> 00:39:33,017 Speaker 1: a young child in Arkansas was, by their parents direction, 710 00:39:33,457 --> 00:39:52,937 Speaker 1: leading a my body, My Choice protest. So they love 711 00:39:53,017 --> 00:39:55,817 Speaker 1: to politicize children. It's also why they like to indoctrinate 712 00:39:55,857 --> 00:39:58,137 Speaker 1: them at the schools as young as they possibly can, 713 00:39:58,257 --> 00:40:03,617 Speaker 1: to brainwash people, to make them believe in a leftist orthodoxy, 714 00:40:03,657 --> 00:40:07,097 Speaker 1: and most importantly, to make them incapable as they grow older, 715 00:40:07,217 --> 00:40:11,257 Speaker 1: of thinking for themselves, of thinking through issues as an 716 00:40:11,297 --> 00:40:15,577 Speaker 1: individual instead of just going along with the herd. President 717 00:40:15,657 --> 00:40:19,377 Speaker 1: Biden said something pretty weird today. He's pandering. It's what 718 00:40:19,417 --> 00:40:21,977 Speaker 1: he's always doing. You know. Biden is now the big 719 00:40:22,017 --> 00:40:24,337 Speaker 1: criminal justice reform. Remember Biden was the guy in the 720 00:40:24,457 --> 00:40:27,337 Speaker 1: nineties just signed the big tough on crime federal bill 721 00:40:27,417 --> 00:40:30,017 Speaker 1: that now he's apologizing for. It's actually a pretty good bill, 722 00:40:30,017 --> 00:40:32,977 Speaker 1: but now he's apologizing for it because you know, social 723 00:40:33,017 --> 00:40:36,817 Speaker 1: justice means that criminal should get away with things. Apparently, 724 00:40:37,217 --> 00:40:39,577 Speaker 1: here's Biden saying he doesn't want to count drunk driving 725 00:40:39,617 --> 00:40:43,137 Speaker 1: as a felony. Watched you only arrest for the purpose 726 00:40:43,257 --> 00:40:46,577 Speaker 1: of dealing with a felony that's committed, and I don't 727 00:40:46,617 --> 00:40:55,937 Speaker 1: count drunk driving as a felony. And that's interesting, is 728 00:40:56,017 --> 00:40:58,897 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. You have to wonder is it that he's 729 00:40:58,937 --> 00:41:02,577 Speaker 1: so old that he isn't really with it sometimes or 730 00:41:02,697 --> 00:41:04,457 Speaker 1: is it more that he's just always been really dumb. 731 00:41:04,937 --> 00:41:08,537 Speaker 1: It's tough to tell. Is it more cognitive impairment from age, 732 00:41:08,617 --> 00:41:11,577 Speaker 1: or Joe Biden is actually just kind of a low 733 00:41:11,617 --> 00:41:16,257 Speaker 1: IQ guy. I'm persuadable either way on this one. So 734 00:41:16,377 --> 00:41:20,097 Speaker 1: today a border patrol, or rather a border ruling came down. 735 00:41:20,297 --> 00:41:24,417 Speaker 1: That means that remain in Mexico is going is ending 736 00:41:24,537 --> 00:41:27,657 Speaker 1: is effectively over which the Bide administration wants to do 737 00:41:27,737 --> 00:41:31,137 Speaker 1: because they want the continued illegal immigration to flood into 738 00:41:31,177 --> 00:41:33,577 Speaker 1: the country. They like this, they don't want it to stop, 739 00:41:34,177 --> 00:41:37,457 Speaker 1: and they're willing to act in bad faith and effectively 740 00:41:37,617 --> 00:41:41,657 Speaker 1: ignore their obligation under federal their border to get there. 741 00:41:41,897 --> 00:41:46,977 Speaker 1: They simply don't care. It's a border that's the worst 742 00:41:46,977 --> 00:41:49,777 Speaker 1: it's ever been from the perspective of lawlessness in law 743 00:41:49,777 --> 00:41:53,217 Speaker 1: and order. And here is may Orchis admitting, yeah, you know, 744 00:41:53,297 --> 00:41:56,017 Speaker 1: border patrol morale is down, and he gets why. Watch 745 00:41:56,497 --> 00:42:00,537 Speaker 1: if you could just talk a little about the challenges 746 00:42:00,577 --> 00:42:03,497 Speaker 1: we have, how the department is really going about trying 747 00:42:03,497 --> 00:42:07,257 Speaker 1: to curtail this. What's the most effective efficient way, and 748 00:42:07,657 --> 00:42:10,857 Speaker 1: now what is our path forward? So I will tell 749 00:42:10,897 --> 00:42:15,257 Speaker 1: you the frustration of the individuals, you know, with the 750 00:42:15,297 --> 00:42:19,857 Speaker 1: badges on the ground and the whole striped firearms is earned. Yeah, 751 00:42:20,577 --> 00:42:22,537 Speaker 1: just we need to be very clear about that. In 752 00:42:22,577 --> 00:42:26,097 Speaker 1: our border patrol agents. You know, their morale is down 753 00:42:26,137 --> 00:42:29,977 Speaker 1: and I understand why. Yeah, because you're a tool of 754 00:42:30,017 --> 00:42:33,817 Speaker 1: the left and you won't actually allow for the border 755 00:42:33,817 --> 00:42:38,097 Speaker 1: to be secured and for the laws to be faithfully enforced. 756 00:42:38,497 --> 00:42:42,537 Speaker 1: Pretty straightforward. White House COVID nineteen response corp Intro doctor 757 00:42:42,577 --> 00:42:45,537 Speaker 1: she'sh Ja says, you know, once a year COVID shot. 758 00:42:45,657 --> 00:42:48,537 Speaker 1: That's what we're going for forever. Watch. So is the 759 00:42:48,577 --> 00:42:50,777 Speaker 1: COVID shot going to end up being like the flu 760 00:42:50,897 --> 00:42:53,057 Speaker 1: shot or at some point will we not have to 761 00:42:53,097 --> 00:42:56,697 Speaker 1: get it? Good question. Right now, we do not have 762 00:42:56,697 --> 00:42:59,577 Speaker 1: a vaccine that's going to give you lifelong protection. Our 763 00:42:59,697 --> 00:43:01,937 Speaker 1: vaccines so far have been giving about sort of six 764 00:43:02,017 --> 00:43:04,297 Speaker 1: to twelve months of protection. My hope is as we 765 00:43:04,337 --> 00:43:06,937 Speaker 1: continue to make improvements, that we will get to a 766 00:43:06,977 --> 00:43:09,377 Speaker 1: point where you get to an annual COVID shot. That's 767 00:43:09,377 --> 00:43:11,257 Speaker 1: not quite where we are, but right, but we are 768 00:43:11,337 --> 00:43:14,177 Speaker 1: making progress, and I think that is the goal is 769 00:43:14,257 --> 00:43:16,697 Speaker 1: let's get it to once a year. Americans are used 770 00:43:16,697 --> 00:43:18,697 Speaker 1: to it, most Americans will get it. That'll be a 771 00:43:18,697 --> 00:43:23,257 Speaker 1: great way to manage the virus. Are you gonna be mandatory? Though? 772 00:43:23,497 --> 00:43:26,857 Speaker 1: Notice how they had to admit the shot nowhere near 773 00:43:27,537 --> 00:43:31,217 Speaker 1: as good as they said, not even close. They live view, 774 00:43:31,457 --> 00:43:34,097 Speaker 1: they don't care. That's everything I told. The line The 775 00:43:34,177 --> 00:43:53,057 Speaker 1: no Spinows of Bill O'Reilly is next Field's High. Each morning, 776 00:43:53,297 --> 00:43:56,217 Speaker 1: the President of the United States receives a highly classified 777 00:43:56,257 --> 00:43:59,297 Speaker 1: briefing on the most important issues facing the country. It's 778 00:43:59,297 --> 00:44:02,817 Speaker 1: called the President's Daily Brief or PDB. It's delivered by 779 00:44:02,817 --> 00:44:05,977 Speaker 1: America's spies and analysts.
