We saw the kind of 209 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 9: the showmanship that the White House rolled out for him. 210 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 9: One of my favorite memories is going with the President 211 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 9: to the UK to meet the King there. 212 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 4: That was an historic visit there. 213 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 9: I will remember the pageantry at the castle and we 214 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 9: went to checkers and kind of the pageantry there to 215 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 9: see how they approach and how they welcomed our president. Now, 216 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 9: not too long ago, if you remember, I asked President 217 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 9: about the blue tent about there's a blue tent outside 218 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 9: the White House that the peace vigil tent. He was 219 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 9: not aware of it. The days later it got scraped 220 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 9: removed from Lafayette Park. I feel like that was a 221 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 9: major victory for America because we got tired of seeing 222 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 9: that which I call a leftist tent. It was something 223 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 9: that had been put there originally to fight nuclear arms 224 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 9: and nuclear weapons, which is a good intention, but it 225 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 9: developed into something far worse than that, so I was glad. 226 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 8: I'm very thankful that I brought it up to the President. 227 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 9: He acted on it about two days later, and now 228 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 9: Americans can now stand David in front of the White 229 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 9: House and take that picture with their family without that blue, 230 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 9: ugly tent. 231 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 8: In front of it. 232 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was downright ugly. 233 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, Brian, I just looked at my bank account and 234 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 6: I realized that my wife and kids are on a 235 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 6: shopping spree, which tells me that the countdown to Christmas 236 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 6: is on right now. And then of course, right after that, 237 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 6: we'll be going into a brand new year, which brings 238 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 6: to mind the midterms of twenty twenty six. It is 239 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 6: going to be huge, and I suspect that you and 240 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 6: I will be spending a lot more weekends together at 241 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 6: various rallies as the President travels the country promoting Republican candidates. 242 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's what he plans to do. Also going on 243 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 9: these many economic stops as well. I've suggested to go 244 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 9: back to what he used during the campaign that got 245 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 9: the American people behind him. 246 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 8: Doing these off the record stops. 247 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 9: Go to restaurants, go to many manufacturing plans, go to 248 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 9: coffee shops, go to McDonald's and talk to the people, 249 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 9: talk about getting this economy back on track. 250 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 8: Take it into the streets. 251 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 9: That's what really gained his popularity during the campaign trail. 252 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 9: Go back to that, and then also hit the road, 253 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 9: hit the road with some of these candidates that we 254 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 9: need to make sure that we keep the House and 255 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 9: maintain the Senate this next midterm. So I think getting 256 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 9: on the road showing that Trump policy, show and support 257 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 9: it's important. 258 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 5: And it's important to him too, Brian. Psychologically, he's in 259 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 5: a better place when he is out of that White House. 260 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 5: I've noticed this over and over again. I'm sure you've 261 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 5: seen it too. And when he gets to hear from 262 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 5: the American people, when he goes out on the road, 263 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 5: he asks a lot of questions. He gets more in 264 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 5: touch with what the average American is thinking and doesn't 265 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 5: rely on news media to tell him. I think it's 266 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 5: a good thing. It's not as insulated. Yeah, all right, Brian, 267 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 5: Well we count on you to tell them everything we 268 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 5: wanted to know, so no pressure.

Having a tough time moving today 354 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 6: or You're not the only one, I definitely am. Are 355 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 6: you feeling the post Thanksgiving bloat? 356 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 11: Well? 357 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 4: If you say no, you're lying. 358 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 6: Who are your kidd and folks? Most of us are 359 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 6: feeling that blow this morning. For many Americans, the Thanksgiving 360 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 6: feast day of indulgence can easily turn into. 361 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 4: Several days of overeating. 362 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 6: Experts say on Thanksgiving alone, people on app average consumed 363 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 6: roughly three thousand calories at dinner with totals of four 364 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 6: five hundred calories or more when you include drinks, appetizers, 365 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 6: and desserts. The real warning here don't let that one 366 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 6: day of feast turn into five days of feasting. If 367 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,959 Speaker 6: you're feeling the calorie regret today, consider getting back on track. 368 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 6: Move your body today and drink plenty of water and 369 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 6: go easy. 370 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 4: On the leftover pie. 371 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 6: Even though most of us love pie, you may just 372 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 6: want to have a half slice or smaller slice instead 373 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 6: of that full, big slice. That's going to do it 374 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 6: for some of our Black Friday headlines. Up next, our 375 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 6: national insecurity at our borders and beyond. We'll get an 376 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 6: update on where we've made some gains and where we're 377 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 6: still vulnerable. First, though, a quick look at this day 378 00:17:46,840 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 6: in history. It was on this date in nineteen twenty 379 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 6: five that The Grand Old Opry first went on the 380 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 6: air from Nashville, Tennessee. The show was born as a 381 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 6: Saturday night barn dance broadcast by radio station WSM, which 382 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 6: is the first broadcast featured live, with the first broadcast 383 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 6: ex season featuring live fiddlers, singers in period costume, and 384 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 6: what was then called country Western music. The program quickly 385 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 6: struck a chord with audiences hungry for rural. 386 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 4: Sound, and went on to become one of the longest. 387 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 6: Running and the most influential showcases in American music history. 388 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 6: Thanks to that first broadcast, a new musical tradition was 389 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 6: born in the heart of the South. Today, the Grand 390 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 6: Old Opry holds the record for not only being the 391 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 6: longest running radio show in America, it's also the longest 392 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 6: running radio show in the world. 393 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 4: Definitely not a bad reflection. As we head into a 394 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 4: post Thanksgiving weekend. More American subtimes coming away after. 395 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 12: Time annoying older they have ess as training with Ron 396 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 12: Risland and lazy GM days. 397 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 2: Santa Fe, New Mexico. I know it well. I go 398 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 2: out there often, see my mom. Who's out there? Hey Mom, 399 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 2: there you are? 400 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 4: No, you're not there. 401 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 2: Welcome back, everybody to American Sunrise. All right. 402 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: China faces growing public unease as citizens there question the 403 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,959 Speaker 1: nation's political direction and social mood. Now while the country 404 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 1: projects strength on the global stage, younger generations say hold on, 405 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: They're struggling with economic stagnation and limited opportunities. They're feeling 406 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: anxious about their future. A state control over media and 407 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: public discourse is really tightening, obviously fueling restlessness and eroding 408 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: trusted institutions across China. Despite these challenges, many Chinese still 409 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: hoole pride and resilience, preventing widespread outbreaks of anger or protests. 410 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: Experts war though, that Beijing does risk a major disconnect 411 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: between its image of power and the reality of a 412 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: society that's wrestling with uncertainty and silent frustration. 413 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: Let's unpack that a little bit further. 414 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: For discussion, we bring in Jonathan Gillham, our good friend, 415 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: former FBI special agent, former Navy seal, just former. 416 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 2: Well I was supposed to say, former great guy. What 417 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 2: am I talking about? No, you're a current great guy. 418 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 2: I'm sorry about that. This is what happens when I 419 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 2: had lib he ate. 420 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 5: A lot of it, not as yesterday, Jonathan. We apologized 421 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 5: by him in advance. 422 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 2: Who puts them into college? 423 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 4: Yeah? 424 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 2: I will literally not live that down. 425 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: Okay, Jonathan, what does this all mean for US China relations? 426 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 2: Good morning to you. I'm no longer ad libbing, by 427 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 2: the way. 428 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 13: Well, you know what's interesting When when I was asked 429 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 13: to talk about this, I went and dove into it 430 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 13: a little bit, and it's very interesting because China is 431 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 13: facing a lot of the social problems that we face here. Primarily, 432 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 13: though their awakening is due to social media and tech 433 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 13: and allowing their young people to be engrossed in this. 434 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 13: So China plays a different game than the United States, though, 435 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 13: is because the United States is truly a free country 436 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 13: full of opportunity. China has limited freedom and limited opportunity. 437 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,160 Speaker 14: And what happened is they opened. 438 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 13: Up their population to social media and tech, and their 439 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 13: young people became lazier and more self centered. And so 440 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 13: I don't think that the ability to find jobs is less. 441 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 13: It's just the ability for them to find jobs that 442 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 13: they want based on who they believe that they are 443 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 13: according to social media. And so it's the same problem 444 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 13: that you see all over the world where in China 445 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 13: they call it laying flat. Young people instead of going 446 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 13: out to find a job that may not have all 447 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 13: kinds of bells and whistles and fame, they're just going 448 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 13: to lay flat, as they call it, and do nothing 449 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 13: and look for less job, lesser jobs that really don't 450 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 13: pay a lot and have no incentive, so they. 451 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 14: Don't have to do anything. 452 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 13: And that's and then they sit around and when people 453 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 13: are like that they sit around and grumble, and we've seen. 454 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 2: This throughout history. 455 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 13: The difference between China the United States is and I 456 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 13: think they probably learn their lesson from Tieneman Square. And 457 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 13: the visual of that push down onto the people is 458 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 13: that if China, the government of China, tightens the pressure 459 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 13: on the people, they can because the young people globally 460 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 13: are so weak because of this tech influence. If China 461 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 13: puts the pressure on the young people, they'll fold and 462 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 13: they'll do what they're told. 463 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 4: I believe. 464 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 13: I don't think that they'll uprise, because they'll be crushed. 465 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 4: Jonathan. 466 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 6: We're obviously giving thanks for our freedoms and for the 467 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 6: peace that we're enjoying here in the United States. In 468 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 6: the meantime, the war between Russian and Ukraine continues to 469 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 6: rage on, which brings to mind that it is a 470 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 6: known fact, but the winter time tends to be the 471 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 6: harder fighting because they are such harsh winters in that region, 472 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 6: and that very well may slow things a little bit. 473 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:09,679 Speaker 4: Do you think that the weather. 474 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 6: Can turn out to be an ally for the United 475 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 6: States and for the rest of the world, and potentially 476 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 6: bringing of Vladimir Putin to the table to try to 477 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 6: potentially end this war. 478 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 13: Well, war has changed now with drones especially, the weather 479 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 13: may not be as big of a factor. We'll see 480 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 13: as drone warfare actually increases and evolves. And with the weather, 481 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 13: the further you can stand off from where your base 482 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 13: is and effectively attack the enemy, then that is going 483 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 13: to be where they determine the factor of weather, and 484 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 13: I think we just see warfare in a completely different way. 485 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 13: I find this warring to be very, very odd because 486 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 13: where the majority of the fighting is happening is in 487 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 13: vacant fields and places. 488 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 7: Where it's just a on. 489 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 13: In the ground to keep Russia from moving forward or 490 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 13: Ukraine from falling backwards. But it also has to do 491 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 13: with a lot of just going in and doing what 492 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 13: terrorists typically do, which is just go in and hit 493 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 13: random places in populated areas at the same time hitting 494 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 13: some strategic targets. So I think as we move into 495 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 13: the winter, it is typically harsh for ground combat troops 496 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 13: to move, But since warfare has changed, I think we're 497 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 13: going to see how this evolution is affected by winter, 498 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 13: and that's yet to be seen. 499 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 5: Okay, Jonathan, on this day after Thanksgiving, what are the 500 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 5: biggest threats to America here in the homeland, as we 501 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 5: head into the new year. 502 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 13: Our internal struggle, I think is the biggest problem that 503 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 13: we have. Politics has gotten into a point again similar 504 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 13: to China's issue, where so social media has not only 505 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 13: corrupted the left where they've become an accepted and actually 506 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 13: promote socialism, which is the gateway drug to communism and fascism, 507 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 13: but they also it's corrupted the minds and the will 508 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 13: of people that consider themselves conservatives or constitutionalists. It is 509 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 13: emboldened the left to go out and make change by 510 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 13: any means possible, which is a communist term, whether through 511 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 13: massive influence, recruiting celebrities and people of influence, or through 512 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 13: nefarious criminal acts. But on the right it's strictly laziness. 513 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 13: It's basically the inability of people on the right to 514 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 13: come together and say we have to stand for this, 515 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 13: because social media has convinced everybody that they know more 516 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 13: and that if they sit and argue loud enough on 517 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 13: social media that things will change, and that while they 518 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 13: do that, the left is taking advantage of that, and 519 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 13: I think we see that through warfare, law fair on 520 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 13: the street, when the left pours out all the things 521 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 13: that they do have been effective because they stick with 522 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 13: the playbook. 523 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 8: And on the right we don't. 524 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 13: And I truly believe that despite the cartails, despite China, 525 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 13: despite Iran or anybody else that may be out there 526 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 13: trying to affect us, I think ultimately the weak citizenry 527 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 13: in this country that has become couch bound is the 528 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 13: biggest national security threat. 529 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 4: That we have. 530 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,120 Speaker 1: Well, I couldn't say it better myself. I mean, you're 531 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 1: channeling that poster. 532 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 2: Behind your sheep no war, the apathy in this country.

I'm back to G. That 550 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 5: is Manhattan, hard to think of what might happen to 551 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 5: it now with the new political turn of events. I'm 552 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 5: back to G. Thanks for joining us today special post 553 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,719 Speaker 5: Thanksgiving show. What makes it special? You make it special? 554 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 5: And all that food you ate yesterday and I did too, 555 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 5: So we're going to get right too that. We're going 556 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 5: to talk about today's health news. It is sponsored by 557 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 5: the Wellness Company and under the microscope today the damage 558 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 5: we might have done to ourselves during yesterday's Thanksgiving feast. 559 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 5: The dinner may be a celebration, but for many Americans 560 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 5: it ends without all too familiar feeling of bloat and fatigue. 561 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 5: Health experts say is not just about what you eat, 562 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 5: it's how much and how fast. Heavy portions, carb loaded 563 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 5: on the front side and a few extra drinks can 564 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 5: stress your digestive system, trigger bloating. The good news, a 565 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 5: light walk, gentle yoga, or even standing a little bit 566 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 5: help digest can make a big difference. You can also 567 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 5: go a little slower. I'm just saying drink a little less, 568 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 5: eat a little less. It's just a thought. Doctors recommend 569 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 5: slowing down, sipping water between bites and or drinks, and 570 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 5: balancing your plate with lean protein and vegetables. A few 571 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 5: small changes can turn post feast misery into a healthier, 572 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 5: happier holiday. And remember Christmas is just around the corner. 573 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 5: So you can choose to wake up feeling stuffed like 574 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 5: last night's bird, or you can turn out light on 575 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 5: your feet. The choice is yours, and it's a hard 576 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 5: one in the heat of the moment, as all that 577 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 5: goodness right in front of you that you only get 578 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 5: once a year unless you're David Brody, and then you 579 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 5: just eat and pinatas which no one understands. It is 580 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 5: a new administration in Washington, d C. It's brought a 581 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 5: lot of positive changes when it comes to fixing our 582 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 5: broken healthcare system, but there's only so much government can do. 583 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 5: And if you really want to make America healthy again, 584 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 5: it's going to start at home with each of us. 585 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 5: And that's where the Wellness Company comes in.

This 603 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 6: is something that's going to interest you and me both. 604 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 6: There's a new tracker out that shows billions of taxpayer 605 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 6: dollars that were quite literally flushed under the Biden administration 606 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 6: through federal agencies like AHHS, dot EPA, and USAID. Congressman 607 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 6: Goldman and his team have uncovered the shocking spinning spree 608 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 6: as Americans stand already crushed by a thirty six trillion 609 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 6: dollar national debt.

The message is quite 613 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 6: clear here. Hardworking Americans deserve honest, efficient government, not a 614 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 6: bureaucracy that fuels a radical agenda while the taxpayer pays 615 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 6: the price. So for further discussion, let's welcome in to 616 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 6: American Sunrise John Hart. He is the CEO at Open 617 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 6: the Books. John, Welcome to the show. I'd like you 618 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 6: to run through some of the details of what Opened 619 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 6: the Books is uncovered, specifically those details that probably most 620 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 6: Americans would want to know. 621 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 15: Yeah, thanks for having me on. 622 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 16: Look, well, I think what we've seen it Open the 623 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 16: Books is we're tracking federal spending at all levels of 624 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 16: government and in the federal agencies, we've seen an explosion 625 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 16: in payroll costs. 626 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 15: So between twenty twenty and twenty twenty. 627 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 16: Four, we saw a twenty five percent increase in salaries 628 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 16: for government employees, and at the. 629 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 15: Same time, we only saw the headcount go up five. 630 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 16: Percent, So in other words, the overall payroll went up 631 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 16: five times more than the number of people. So there's 632 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 16: been an absolute explosion in high earning government employees. Between 633 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 16: that same period twenty twenty twenty twenty four, we've seen 634 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 16: an eighty two percent increase in the people making two 635 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 16: hundred thousand. 636 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 15: Dollars or more a year. And in fact, there are 637 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 15: thirty one thousand federal employees. This is unbelievable. 638 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 16: That out earn every governor in the country, and that's 639 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 16: a two hundred and fifty thousand dollars salary. So in 640 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 16: other words, we've got thirty one thousand people making more 641 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 16: than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year. And 642 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 16: what that indicates is, look, you know people ask me 643 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 16: all the time, is how do you define government waste? Well, 644 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 16: I define waste as a violation of the social contract. 645 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 15: In other words, when you give up a dollar. 646 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 16: Of your freedom, of your tax dollars, you want more 647 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 16: than a dollar back, and you get benefits like a 648 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 16: national defense, you get minimal regulation, so that we have 649 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 16: a free market economy. But when you start to create 650 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 16: a bloated administrative state, then that becomes waste. Of like 651 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 16: a Thanksgiving dinner where you want to have a few 652 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 16: leftovers in the fridge, but if you're making ten times 653 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 16: more than you're going to eat, any normal person feels 654 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 16: bad and guilty that they've done something foolish. 655 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 15: But that's what our federal government does. 656 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 16: Is they take way more than they need and they 657 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 16: don't provide much of a benefit in return. 658 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, it really is there. Really, it really is an 659 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 5: analogy to Thanksgiving. We do hate the bloating, but at 660 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 5: the same time we're fascinated by the details here, Like 661 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 5: sometimes I love those side dishes so much and I 662 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 5: can't get enough of them, and then all of a sudden, 663 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 5: there's the bloating. 664 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 3: You didn't mean to do it, but here we are. 665 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 5: So tell us what are some of the most egregious 666 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 5: examples of government waste that you came across. 667 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 16: Yeah, look, I think what some of the most egregious 668 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 16: is we have doctors at NIH making four hundred four 669 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 16: and fifty thousand dollars a year. 670 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 15: Do we really need to be spending Again, that's federal 671 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 15: taxpayer money. 672 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 16: You know, as I mentioned, we've got you know, thirty 673 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 16: one thousand employees that out earn every governor in the state. 674 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 16: And look, every dollar that is wasted in Washington hurts 675 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 16: a family in America, but every dollar saved can be 676 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 16: a dream realized somewhere else in the country. And that's 677 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 16: what our country is based on. So we're thankful for 678 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 16: our freedoms and we should be celebrating that. And Thomas 679 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 16: Jefferson really described this problem well. He said, the natural 680 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,240 Speaker 16: order of things is for liberty to yield and government 681 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 16: to gain ground. And so what we've seen is this 682 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 16: massive explosion. And this is really over the course of 683 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 16: one hundred years. This isn't just the past four years, 684 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 16: but it got a lot worse under President Biden. And 685 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 16: what we want to do is call attention to it. 686 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 16: And we're making the argument that you can't have accountability 687 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 16: without visibility. So every taxpayer has the right to see 688 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 16: what's going into the federal government, what's going into the fridge, 689 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 16: so it speak, so they can see what's going to 690 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 16: come out of it. 691 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 6: What you've described as part of what inspired DOGE. Are 692 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 6: you optimistic moving forward? DOGE will continue to make significant 693 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 6: cuts and changes that will reel in some of the spending. 694 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,919 Speaker 6: And I asked that question because I'm not so sure 695 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 6: any of us I believe that Congress will ultimately be 696 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 6: good stewards of our money. 697 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:09,839 Speaker 16: Well, look, I think you know, I have a lot 698 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 16: of confidence in the goodness and decency of we the people, 699 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 16: of the American people. 700 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 15: And whether whether you like you. 701 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 16: Know the politics of Trump or you like the politics 702 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 16: absorbed Mandamie in New York City, both of those examples 703 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 16: show that our system is capable of change and having 704 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 16: people elected that are unexpected. 705 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:27,839 Speaker 15: So I have a lot of. 706 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 16: Confidence in the decency and good sentence of taxpayers to 707 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 16: understand what's happening with their money when when they have 708 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 16: the benefit of seeing the money. 709 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 15: Go out the door and where it's sport's headed. 710 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 16: So you know, when I work in the I worked 711 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 16: in the Senate for Senator Tom Coburn. He was one 712 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 16: of the most effective budget cutters in the past forty years. 713 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 16: We actually helped cut over a trillion dollars over a 714 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 16: of a long period of time fifteen years. We didn't 715 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 16: cut nearly enough, but we showed that if you focus 716 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 16: relentlessly on downsizing government you really can move the needle. 717 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 16: We cut one hundred and fifty t one hundred and 718 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 16: fifty billion dollars between twenty twelve and twenty thirteen, which 719 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 16: is the first time we had a big, really year 720 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 16: to year reduction in government spending since the end of 721 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 16: the Korean War. We got rid of your marks for 722 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 16: a decade. That saved one hundred and forty billion dollars. 723 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 16: So there's a lot of examples where change is possible. 724 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 16: So doge I see it really at the beginning of 725 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 16: a process. I give a lot of credit to Secretary 726 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 16: of McMahon, Secretary of Education. She is meaningfully moving to 727 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 16: return education to the States. I think the Department of 728 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 16: Education is going to be the demonstration project that a 729 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,959 Speaker 16: year from now people look back on it. And so that's 730 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 16: really the good that came out of the doj era 731 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 16: is taking an agency and showing that education could actually 732 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 16: improve if you get rid of the federal involvement and 733 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 16: instead empower local communities in pairs. 734 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 5: And that stands for a lot of government bureaucracies. John Hart, 735 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 5: thank you so much. Happy Thanksgiving week to you, and 736 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 5: we'll see you soon coming up. 737 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,240 Speaker 3: You're a week not woke segment. 738 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 5: Would you believe there's a group that doesn't want you 739 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 5: to shop today to protest President Trump? 740 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 3: But we'll be right back.

But then when Scrooge became Maga, 777 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 5: then he started paying attention to what actually mattered in life. 778 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 5: I'm totally making that up, but it really does sort 779 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 5: of seem that way in a Christmas carol, doesn't it, 780 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 5: Because you know, when Scrooge was busy counting every piny 781 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,360 Speaker 5: and being angry everybody.

Secondly, people aren't going to stop shopping, particularly 799 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 6: on the days when there are deals that are available 800 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 6: and you can try to save yourself a couple of 801 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 6: extra bucks. It's a pipe dream. It's not going to happen. 802 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 6: People aren't going to listen to that. It's just not realistic. 803 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 6: Particularly in this environment. 804 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: David, Yeah, I hear you on all that.

Free market suck. 807 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: That's one group, and here's another one. Capitalism really sucks. 808 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: There you go, because that's what they want to do, right. 809 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 1: They can't listen, they can't stand the system. This is 810 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: about Marxism, straight up.

Are you feeling the post Thanksgiving bloat? 1033 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 6: If you say no, who are you kidding? Most of 1034 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:22,239 Speaker 6: us are, yes, me included. For many Americans, the Thanksgiving 1035 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:26,080 Speaker 6: feast day of indulgence can easily turn into several days 1036 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 6: of overeating. Experts say on Thanksgiving Day alone, people on 1037 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 6: average consume roughly three thousand calories at dinner, with totals 1038 00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:39,120 Speaker 6: of four thousand to five thousand calories or four thousand, 1039 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:40,760 Speaker 6: five hundred calories. 1040 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 4: Excuse me, or more when they. 1041 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:46,440 Speaker 6: Include drinks, appetizers, and desserts.

If you're feeling the calorie regret today, 1044 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 6: consider getting back on track by moving your body, drinking 1045 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:00,919 Speaker 6: plenty of water, and going easy on the leftover. Most 1046 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,759 Speaker 6: of us love pie and will continue to go back 1047 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 6: for seconds, thirds, or fifths. Yes I'm one of those guys, 1048 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 6: But try to step away. 1049 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 4: From the pie if at all possible. That's a quick 1050 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 4: check of your Black Friday headlines. Now let's get you 1051 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 4: over to David David. 1052 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,879 Speaker 2: Good morning, Good morning Tea Bates. 1053 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 1: All right, our top story at this hour the Biden 1054 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 1: autopen scandal and who was using it? You know, even 1055 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,840 Speaker 1: the failing New York Times now calling out all of 1056 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,680 Speaker 1: this chaos. There's a new opinion piece in the New 1057 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 1: York Times that argues that President Joe Biden may have 1058 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:31,320 Speaker 1: relied on an autopen device to sign off on pardons 1059 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 1: and executive actions without his direct hand in every case. Okay, 1060 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 1: that's opinion, feels like more like fact at this point. 1061 00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 1: The article notes that while Biden claims he made every decision, 1062 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 1: internal documents and winness testimony actually raised doubts about whether 1063 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:52,399 Speaker 1: he personally approved each individual case. Investigators from the House 1064 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,360 Speaker 1: Committee on Oversight and Government Reforms say there is no 1065 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 1: clear evidence that Biden himself filled out or witnessed all 1066 00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: of the signatures involved in the clemency process. 1067 00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:04,800 Speaker 2: The author of the article also warns that this could. 1068 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 1: Amount to a constitutional crisis because the pardon power is 1069 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 1: reserved solely for the sitting president and cannot be delegated. Ultimately, 1070 00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 1: the piece calls for transparency and a thorough review to 1071 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:21,880 Speaker 1: determine whether the legitimacy of numerous pardons and commutations is 1072 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 1: in doubt. 1073 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 2: And that thorough review is going on as we speak. 1074 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:25,359 Speaker 7: All right. 1075 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 2: Joining us now with. 1076 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 1: Reaction is Republican strategist Bobby Every back with us for 1077 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,359 Speaker 1: an encore performance, as we like to say here on 1078 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 1: the show.

Do they lay down? 1093 00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:12,319 Speaker 8: I couldn't do it. 1094 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 2: I think it's thrown down. 1095 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:20,919 Speaker 1: Okay, so let's get back to what I was talking about, 1096 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 1: which I totally forgot about. 1097 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,760 Speaker 8: So, in your opinion, will the. 1098 00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:27,680 Speaker 1: Autopen scandal forever taint Biden's legacy? 1099 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:29,960 Speaker 2: And by the way, it's there's a beautiful picture of 1100 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 2: him there in the colonnade at the White House. 1101 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,839 Speaker 4: That would be the autopen Yeah, that's right. 1102 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 19: I mean you walk down then as president after president, 1103 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 19: and then you see the auto pen. But again, to 1104 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 19: answer the question, yeah, this is going to be a 1105 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 19: big deal because you know, the House Oversight Committee, one 1106 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:50,240 Speaker 19: of one of the things that what they were really 1107 00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:53,200 Speaker 19: looking at is the cognitive decline of the president. Right, 1108 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:56,400 Speaker 19: It's like, look at this, Look at he not only declined, 1109 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 19: but they covered it up. 1110 00:55:58,160 --> 00:55:58,879 Speaker 8: And in the. 1111 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 19: Process of covering it up, they are putting upon themselves 1112 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:05,879 Speaker 19: actions that are reserved for the president. And so that's 1113 00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 19: where the legality of everything kicks in. It's a major, 1114 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 19: major deal in the Oversight Committee ultimately in their report 1115 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:16,920 Speaker 19: referred to the DOJ saying, hey, look, we need to 1116 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:22,160 Speaker 19: now look at these pardons and commutations and see, hey. 1117 00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:23,960 Speaker 14: Do we are these void? 1118 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:27,319 Speaker 19: I mean, if the president's not doing it, then yeah, 1119 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 19: these are not legal maneuvers at all. 1120 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 8: And it's a big legacy. 1121 00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 19: But it all it goes into the overarching theme of 1122 00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 19: the cognitive decline and the cover up and that he 1123 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,879 Speaker 19: was not at the helm. Maybe for the entire presidency, 1124 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 19: who knows, but that is ultimately his legacy. 1125 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,359 Speaker 5: Honestly, if you didn't believe in God before, how can 1126 00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:50,840 Speaker 5: you not believe who the heck was protecting the United States? 1127 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 5: When Joe Lighten was sitting. 1128 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:54,359 Speaker 3: In the oval, who was doing it? 1129 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:57,760 Speaker 5: It is a wonder we weren't nuked during that time. 1130 00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 5: And you know, I feel like the more they drag 1131 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 5: this out, they're waiting for Joe Biden to be in 1132 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 5: such cognitive decline that he can't even testify, So then 1133 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 5: there will be no There'll be nobody to witness because 1134 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 5: he was the one who was supposed to be in charge. 1135 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 5: That's how I feel like this is going to go, 1136 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 5: mark my words, and that's a sound bible. H Weld, Bobby, 1137 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 5: unlike Joe Biden, what do you feel though today is 1138 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 5: the most pressing Thank you David, David got my joke. 1139 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 5: Have an audience if you want. 1140 00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 7: It works. 1141 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:29,160 Speaker 5: What is the most pressing issue facing this president though? 1142 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 5: President Trump in our country right now.

Again, when 1148 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 19: the when the average age of a first time home 1149 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,600 Speaker 19: buyer is forty years old, we're in a kind of 1150 00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:53,920 Speaker 19: a different era than you know, the twenty four year 1151 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 19: old new family, one kid on the way and getting 1152 00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:02,959 Speaker 19: that first house. It's a different era. And the young 1153 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 19: people the gen z. I mean my son, you know, 1154 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 19: he just turned twenty four, and I've got daughters twenty 1155 00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 19: nine and you know, they are looking their starting family 1156 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:15,400 Speaker 19: as he's finishing school, and it's it's just a different 1157 00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:18,120 Speaker 19: world out there that oh man, I've got that first job, 1158 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:22,200 Speaker 19: but what what do I have left after? You know, 1159 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 19: the health insurance and the rent and the fuel and 1160 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 19: the food and everything. It's caused a lot of stress. 1161 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 19: And I think the young, the youth vote we saw 1162 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 19: in the polls how much it moved towards President Trump 1163 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,920 Speaker 19: going into the twenty twenty four election, and that's because 1164 00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 19: they were they're looking for real change, I mean, just 1165 00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 19: government upheaval. They're not identifying so much as Republican or Democrat, 1166 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,240 Speaker 19: but let's shake up the system so there's something left 1167 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,240 Speaker 19: for us. I would focus on that front and center 1168 00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 19: because it comes under that global umbrella of the economy, 1169 00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 19: and that's what people vote on. 1170 00:58:57,880 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 4: Bobby. 1171 00:58:58,280 --> 00:59:01,479 Speaker 6: To your point, with the upcoming terms, that has got 1172 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 6: to be, or it should be the rallying call for 1173 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 6: Republicans if they want to win. Is the affordability issue 1174 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 6: and quality of life? That's got to be all that's 1175 00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:12,440 Speaker 6: being talked about. And I would say talk about it now. 1176 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 6: The midterms isn't twenty twenty six. 1177 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 4: It's already underway in my mind. 1178 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:19,000 Speaker 19: Yeah, exactly, and that Fox News just had to pull 1179 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:23,040 Speaker 19: out yesterday or the day before that compared Biden's last 1180 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,000 Speaker 19: year to Trump's first year. As far as economic policies, 1181 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 19: have these helped you in any way or hurt you 1182 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 19: or are not affected, and they're identical, They're absolutely identical. 1183 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:38,280 Speaker 19: So I know it takes some time for economic policies 1184 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:40,880 Speaker 19: to kick in, but people aren't feeling it right now 1185 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 19: despite any of the rhetoric or press conferences. They're just 1186 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:47,160 Speaker 19: not feeling it. So if they're not feeling it, then 1187 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:50,000 Speaker 19: what's going to happen at the ballot boxes. They're going 1188 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,720 Speaker 19: to go a different direction. They're going to try something different. 1189 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 19: And notice I said something different. I didn't necessarily say 1190 00:59:56,920 --> 01:00:00,720 Speaker 19: something better because we have the better policies. People will 1191 01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 19: just say, hey, this is my status. 1192 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 7: Now I need to I need to change something. 1193 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 19: And a lot of times that's the people that are 1194 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:07,960 Speaker 19: in office. 1195 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 2: We saw it with mon Yeah, yeah for sure. 1196 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 1: And Bobby, you make a good point. It's going to 1197 01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 1: take time and then and that's not a good thing 1198 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 1: for the Trump administration. They want something faster, but you know, 1199 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 1: we'll see. Uh, Bobby, thanks for being here. By the way, 1200 01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 1: what are the price of marshmallows? You know, I mean no, 1201 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:25,479 Speaker 1: I don't look at those things. 1202 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:26,600 Speaker 4: I don't touch that stuff. 1203 01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 7: So you got to have for that one. 1204 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 2: I was asking for t Bates, asking for a friend. 1205 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:31,760 Speaker 16: Oh right. 1206 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:35,439 Speaker 19: You got to enjoy the rest of your weekend.

We're 1213 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 1: just talking about this. You know, inflation is so bad, 1214 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:56,800 Speaker 1: I mean Black Friday now about bread and eggs, not 1215 01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:57,840 Speaker 1: bikes and TVs. 1216 01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:00,920 Speaker 2: We've got some data we just uncovered. 1217 01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 1: On how families are shifting spending to survive and who's 1218 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:04,760 Speaker 1: profiting from their pain. 1219 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 12: To talk about that when we come back. 1220 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:29,440 Speaker 18: Welcome back to American Sunrise. I'm American Sunrise contributor Emily Finn. 1221 01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:31,160 Speaker 17: It's great to have you with us this morning. 1222 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:33,440 Speaker 18: Time now to drain the swamp, and this morning we 1223 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,920 Speaker 18: are flushing out inflation, which has gotten so out of 1224 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 18: control that Americans are now using Black Friday not to 1225 01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:43,480 Speaker 18: snap up luxury deals, but to stock up on groceries 1226 01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 18: and everyday essentials. The pressure on household budgets means families 1227 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:51,120 Speaker 18: are swapping gifts for needs and prioritizing under the radar 1228 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 18: savings over big splurges. Retailers who once relied on electronics 1229 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 18: and fashion for the holiday push are now shifting to 1230 01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 18: food and household appliances to meet real stress in the. 1231 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 17: Wallets of Americans. 1232 01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 18: For Magapatriots, this is proof that the American people are 1233 01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:10,200 Speaker 18: fed up with elite economic policy and back to back 1234 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:13,600 Speaker 18: failure on price stability. The next battleground will be who's 1235 01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:17,280 Speaker 18: saving America's budgets and whether patriotic leaders will cut wasteful 1236 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:21,880 Speaker 18: spending and taxes while restoring real value to everyday Americans. 1237 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 18: Let's bring in doctor Gina, David and Terrence for more. 1238 01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 18: I just am reminiscing and thinking about all the Black 1239 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,880 Speaker 18: Fridays that I would wake up with my mom super 1240 01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 18: early go to the mall. 1241 01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:32,200 Speaker 17: It just sounds like that. 1242 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 18: Kind of experience isn't really happening for young people these days. 1243 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:35,920 Speaker 17: Gina. 1244 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:39,920 Speaker 5: I think that's true, Emily, and I think it's really sad. 1245 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 3: And I really do hope that they. 1246 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:46,760 Speaker 5: Can start that young people, especially can start to feel 1247 01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:49,840 Speaker 5: some of the things that I think they fought and 1248 01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:53,160 Speaker 5: we fought to bring back to them that were robbed 1249 01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 5: by the Joe Biden just selfishness and ineptitude. 1250 01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 1: Really, David, Yeah, So I want to talk a little 1251 01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 1: bit about these prices that we keep hearing about inflation. 1252 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:05,880 Speaker 2: Inflation. 1253 01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:09,919 Speaker 1: Well, inflation's actually down since the end of the Biden administration. 1254 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:12,520 Speaker 2: So in other words, you know Biden administration, we know 1255 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:13,760 Speaker 2: how horrible was. 1256 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 1: It was up at nine percent at one point, it 1257 01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:18,200 Speaker 1: came down, but it was bad throughout. 1258 01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:20,000 Speaker 2: Now it's down to three percent. 1259 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that's great, but it's definitely better than 1260 01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 1: the Biden administration. 1261 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:28,840 Speaker 2: But yet we keep hearing about, oh, it's just horrible 1262 01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 2: out there. 1263 01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:31,920 Speaker 1: And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that there 1264 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:34,440 Speaker 1: aren't certain prices that are up. For example, I just 1265 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 1: saw sweet potatoes are up thirty seven percent. The vegetable 1266 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:39,360 Speaker 1: tray that you buy for your family out there at 1267 01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 1: your local grocery store up sixty one percent. I mean, 1268 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:44,520 Speaker 1: beef is out of control. 1269 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 2: It's like ten dollars, you know, a pound or whatever 1270 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:51,560 Speaker 2: it is, I don't know. It's a lot. The point though, yes, no, 1271 01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 2: it's not that much. 1272 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 5: It's if you want beef with like no antibiotics, that 1273 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,120 Speaker 5: weren't fed, glac estates all the rest of it, you 1274 01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:01,680 Speaker 5: want grass fed all that, and you're really paying through 1275 01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:02,240 Speaker 5: the next state. 1276 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:04,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's a lot. 1277 01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 1: But I will say this that if you look at 1278 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:10,240 Speaker 1: milk and you look at bread, technically, at least according 1279 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:12,000 Speaker 1: to the statistics. I don't know where y'all shop. It 1280 01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:15,080 Speaker 1: could be geographical obviously, but it's down. Bread is down, 1281 01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:17,680 Speaker 1: Eggs are down, Milk is down, gas is down. So 1282 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean, if you know, you put it all together, 1283 01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: the Trump administration needs to do a better job of 1284 01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 1: trying to explain this the American people because. 1285 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,280 Speaker 2: They keep talking about, well, energy prices are down. Okay, 1286 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,520 Speaker 2: people don't get energy. Energy Okay, that means that means 1287 01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 2: I'm paying less for gas. Okay, got it. But what else? 1288 01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 2: You know, they don't really get it. So you got 1289 01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 2: to do much better job. 1290 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 18: Prwives, Terrence, your thoughts before we wrap this up here. 1291 01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 6: You know, there's so it's such a broad conversation because 1292 01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 6: even if prices are technically down, I think most of 1293 01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:53,920 Speaker 6: us who are consumers are still comparing the current prices 1294 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:56,400 Speaker 6: to what we were experiencing in what one might say 1295 01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 6: is a heyday or before the Joe Biden administration. And 1296 01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 6: it's still very high, and it's still unfortunately for many people, 1297 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 6: their wages haven't necessarily risen at the same rate as inflation, 1298 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:09,920 Speaker 6: and so that still makes it a bit more expensive 1299 01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 6: and bit more cost prohibitive to get basic things. And 1300 01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 6: then most reasonable people are also kind of factoring in, 1301 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,200 Speaker 6: all right, well, what if somebody in my family gets sick, 1302 01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:20,920 Speaker 6: or what if we lose an income, what if something 1303 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:23,600 Speaker 6: massive happens, And so they're pulling back from the market 1304 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 6: a little bit because you just don't know, there's not 1305 01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 6: the sense of security, at least not the people that 1306 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:30,680 Speaker 6: I'm dealing with and that I talk to. There's not 1307 01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:33,919 Speaker 6: a sense of security economically, and so people are pulling 1308 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 6: back as a. 1309 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:35,080 Speaker 4: Result of that. 1310 01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 6: That's the experience that I'm hearing pretty widespread. 1311 01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:41,680 Speaker 5: And insurance costs are so high across the board. Insurance costs, 1312 01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 5: I'm so high. 1313 01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:43,000 Speaker 3: While you're talking. 1314 01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:46,640 Speaker 5: About health insurance, home insurance, car insurance. 1315 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,200 Speaker 18: It's all just great points all around, all right, We 1316 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 18: do want to know what you our viewers think as well. 1317 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 18: Let us know on YouTube, rumble or getter hop on 1318 01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:56,080 Speaker 18: and let your voice be heard.

You know, you take all that little money 1440 01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 5: that you're spending on things that maybe you don't need, 1441 01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:01,599 Speaker 5: and you put it in a down payment on something. 1442 01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:03,880 Speaker 5: Teach your kids to do the same thing, and it 1443 01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:07,120 Speaker 5: really can be ilucrative in the long run. 1444 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 2: Terrence, Yeah, absolutely not. 1445 01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:12,519 Speaker 21: Beautiful mansions ahead, Jake.

I might be available 1447 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:16,760 Speaker 21: in about six or seven months. 1448 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:18,679 Speaker 5: There's a whole other part of Palm Beach too, where 1449 01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:19,839 Speaker 5: the rest of us subsist. 1450 01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:25,120 Speaker 6: But anyway, yes, hey, Jake, I love the idea of 1451 01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:28,440 Speaker 6: buying real estate. And as you said, it is a 1452 01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:30,880 Speaker 6: buyer's market, not necessarily a seller's market. 1453 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:32,599 Speaker 4: But the reality is. 1454 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 6: For so many people they don't have the savings in 1455 01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:38,599 Speaker 6: order to put down the down payment. Then who has 1456 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:40,600 Speaker 6: twenty percent of six hundred thousand. 1457 01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:42,080 Speaker 4: Dollars whatever, if you're lucky. 1458 01:11:42,240 --> 01:11:44,719 Speaker 6: And then the other thing is interest rates are still 1459 01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:45,960 Speaker 6: higher than they were. 1460 01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:47,080 Speaker 7: I get that. 1461 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:49,439 Speaker 6: You know in the eighties and the early nineties we 1462 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 6: had interest rates right about where we are today. But 1463 01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:55,599 Speaker 6: many people are still remembering, you know, four or five 1464 01:11:55,680 --> 01:11:57,439 Speaker 6: years ago when you get an interest rate for two 1465 01:11:57,479 --> 01:11:58,120 Speaker 6: and a half percent. 1466 01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:03,800 Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean, look, that's that's another big stumbling block. 1467 01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:05,800 Speaker 21: But we had a number, we had we had about 1468 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:09,519 Speaker 21: three stumbling blocks. And the first one is again this 1469 01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 21: incredibly large increase in mortgage rates compared to just a 1470 01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:15,439 Speaker 21: few years ago. But the other one was supply. I mean, 1471 01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 21: we didn't even have enough supply on the market, and 1472 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:21,800 Speaker 21: now we're seeing that first hurdle cleared. Now we have 1473 01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:24,599 Speaker 21: enough supply in most places in this country. There's not 1474 01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:26,639 Speaker 21: only a lot of supply, but there's some good supply. 1475 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:30,280 Speaker 21: There's some really nice looking properties available. So if you're 1476 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:32,200 Speaker 21: going to end up paying more in a mortgage, and 1477 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 21: as much as that's rough and you're going to grit 1478 01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:36,559 Speaker 21: your teeth doing it, at least you're doing it for 1479 01:12:37,080 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 21: a good choice property. 1480 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:39,679 Speaker 14: You have the choice as a buyer. 1481 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:41,639 Speaker 21: You don't have to settle for something that's like, okay, 1482 01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:45,120 Speaker 21: it's a fixer upper, this is where the Amityville horror happened, 1483 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 21: or it's too close to my relatives, just kid, but 1484 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 21: you know whatever, you have more of a choice right now, 1485 01:12:50,840 --> 01:12:51,639 Speaker 21: and that's important. 1486 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:56,160 Speaker 1: Too close to my relatives and Abonyville horror, So basically 1487 01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:57,640 Speaker 1: the same thing, you're being redundant. 1488 01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:01,000 Speaker 8: Yeah, I got it all. 1489 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:04,440 Speaker 1: Right, plus week, Jake, we got out better than expected. 1490 01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 1: Of course it was delayed. But the September jobs report, 1491 01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:10,720 Speaker 1: so what's that going to do? To the interest rate 1492 01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:13,800 Speaker 1: cut that Wall Street and President Trump want for next month. 1493 01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:16,360 Speaker 21: What's going to happen on this Well, it's going to 1494 01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:18,240 Speaker 21: be tough for now for that cut to happen. You know, 1495 01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 21: we're seeing more strength in the jobs market. 1496 01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:20,599 Speaker 18: Now. 1497 01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,320 Speaker 21: If you gave me a choice between a stronger jobs 1498 01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:25,920 Speaker 21: market and lower interest rates, I'll choose a stronger jobs 1499 01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:28,559 Speaker 21: market every day of the week and twice on Sunday. 1500 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:32,040 Speaker 21: So I get that. But now there's a stronger argument 1501 01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 21: from the folks in the Fed who should have been 1502 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,760 Speaker 21: cutting rates earlier, but now they are going to be 1503 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:38,960 Speaker 21: a little bit tougher for them to do that. The 1504 01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:43,000 Speaker 21: markets were thinking about pulling a tantrum over that last week, 1505 01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 21: the week before Thanksgiving, but now that they're getting better 1506 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:48,440 Speaker 21: jobs numbers, they're sort of focusing on some other positives. 1507 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:50,240 Speaker 21: But yeah, it's going to be harder. We might have 1508 01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:52,080 Speaker 21: to wait longer for that next rate cut. And when 1509 01:13:52,120 --> 01:13:53,640 Speaker 21: I say rate wait longer, I mean we might have 1510 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:55,599 Speaker 21: to wait for Jerome Powell's term to end in May 1511 01:13:55,880 --> 01:13:57,360 Speaker 21: for us to see a rate cut in the next 1512 01:13:57,360 --> 01:13:58,360 Speaker 21: meeting real quick. 1513 01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:02,000 Speaker 5: Jake, does this mean if if we've transferred now from 1514 01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:04,080 Speaker 5: the bubble that we all know very well, and I 1515 01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:06,040 Speaker 5: don't think any of this is actually happening here but 1516 01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:10,439 Speaker 5: to a buyer's market. As you're saying, does this mean 1517 01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:12,559 Speaker 5: the bubble is bursting and we could be looking at 1518 01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:14,200 Speaker 5: some harder economic times. 1519 01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:19,520 Speaker 21: No, it's actually a healthy, I would say, a fluctuation 1520 01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:21,920 Speaker 21: within the market. It's not like, oh, all of a sudden, 1521 01:14:22,479 --> 01:14:24,720 Speaker 21: these houses are crazy overpriced and everything's going to go 1522 01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:28,040 Speaker 21: bargain basement. It's just like I said, house prices are 1523 01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:30,920 Speaker 21: still slightly high listen year over year or one or 1524 01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:35,320 Speaker 21: two percent increase after many years of massive increases is healthy. 1525 01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:38,520 Speaker 21: So what we're seeing, I think, is this healthy fluctuation. 1526 01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,360 Speaker 21: People are finally putting their homes on the market. They're 1527 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:45,000 Speaker 21: putting good homes on the market, and to me, that's healthy. 1528 01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,280 Speaker 14: I don't see a burst or a crash on the market. 1529 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:50,519 Speaker 21: I'm seeing the buyer having more choice and hopefully that 1530 01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:53,240 Speaker 21: will lead to even healthier market in the future. 1531 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,160 Speaker 14: But we've been sick on this end of supply not 1532 01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 14: being there for too long. 1533 01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:00,600 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, sure, all right, Well, Jake back, have a 1534 01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:01,520 Speaker 1: happy Thanksgiving. 1535 01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:03,160 Speaker 2: I mean you already did, but I hope you have. 1536 01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:05,480 Speaker 2: I hope he continues, over the weekend, I guess. 1537 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:10,280 Speaker 21: Yes, I'll be having some incredible Black Friday singalongs like 1538 01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:12,120 Speaker 21: you're seely Dan there a few minutes ago, So that's 1539 01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:12,559 Speaker 21: what I'm saying. 1540 01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:18,080 Speaker 1: And John something Colely whatever his name is, John john Ford. 1541 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,200 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I don't know. 1542 01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:25,160 Speaker 5: We got through almost the entire block without talking about 1543 01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 5: marshmallows or enchiladas, So there's. 1544 01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:30,760 Speaker 2: That that's true. But we just talked about it. So 1545 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:36,720 Speaker 2: I guess you just mentioned this.

And it is time now to 1559 01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:38,680 Speaker 5: take the political pulse of America. The beat today, is 1560 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:41,760 Speaker 5: it time for term limits? A? All right? 1561 01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:42,200 Speaker 3: You know? 1562 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:46,320 Speaker 5: Florida Governor Ron Desanis argues the congressional term limits are 1563 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:49,720 Speaker 5: necessary to fix the system he says is rigged by 1564 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:54,479 Speaker 5: career politicians who prioritize longevity over public service. DeSantis, is 1565 01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 5: co chairing a bipartisan campaign for this reform, supports an 1566 01:16:59,479 --> 01:17:04,120 Speaker 5: article I have convention to propose a constitutional amendment without 1567 01:17:04,160 --> 01:17:05,200 Speaker 5: congressional approval. 1568 01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:08,040 Speaker 7: Let's listen, we're working through the states. 1569 01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:10,519 Speaker 22: We know people in Congress are not going to be 1570 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:13,720 Speaker 22: interested in ejecting themselves out of office. So Article five 1571 01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 22: of the Constitution provides a pathway to states to propose 1572 01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:17,519 Speaker 22: an amendment. 1573 01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:19,000 Speaker 14: This is a bottom up movement. 1574 01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:23,160 Speaker 22: Here's the thing, Brett Republican Democrat, Rich Poor Black write. 1575 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 2: Huge support for term limits across the board. 1576 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:29,360 Speaker 22: Very few things unite the American electorate in this divided 1577 01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:31,840 Speaker 22: era of politics more than the need. 1578 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:32,519 Speaker 7: For term limits. 1579 01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:37,320 Speaker 5: I feel a tweet coming on like me offering to 1580 01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 5: debate absolutely anyone, anywhere, anytime on this issue. Joining us 1581 01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:43,680 Speaker 5: now with his take though on term limits. Is the 1582 01:17:43,720 --> 01:17:47,240 Speaker 5: host of the aptly named show Last Call Here on 1583 01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 5: RAV Mike, What say you? Is this the last call 1584 01:17:51,840 --> 01:17:56,320 Speaker 5: for dinosaurs like Chuck Schumer and his ilk on Capitol 1585 01:17:56,360 --> 01:17:59,360 Speaker 5: Hill who refuse to leave their positions. I think we 1586 01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:02,000 Speaker 5: need to vote them out, not term limited them out. 1587 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:04,200 Speaker 5: You know, I'm going to get my two cents in here. Guys, 1588 01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:05,639 Speaker 5: I can't shut up on this issue. 1589 01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:07,160 Speaker 3: Totally imposed. 1590 01:18:07,439 --> 01:18:09,559 Speaker 5: But Mike, I'm not the guest on the show. I'm 1591 01:18:09,560 --> 01:18:11,439 Speaker 5: not the expert guest. Even you are. 1592 01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:14,400 Speaker 23: Listen, Listen. It's a good thing. I don't disagree with 1593 01:18:14,439 --> 01:18:16,320 Speaker 23: you on this topic. But I don't think any American 1594 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:18,400 Speaker 23: with half a brain disagrees. 1595 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:18,799 Speaker 7: With you on this topic. 1596 01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:22,240 Speaker 23: Doctor Gina, you know anybody who is in Congress for 1597 01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:27,200 Speaker 23: twenty thirty, forty fifty years, there's a problem. Okay, my 1598 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:32,160 Speaker 23: congressman actually has been in office now for forty seven years. 1599 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:34,000 Speaker 23: What is something you want to do for forty seven 1600 01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:36,200 Speaker 23: years straight other than you know, I guess, be with 1601 01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:39,040 Speaker 23: your wife or your husband. Nothing else you'd want to 1602 01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:42,160 Speaker 23: do for that long of a time the same job, 1603 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,519 Speaker 23: being a member of Congress. It's quite weird and it's 1604 01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,080 Speaker 23: a massive problem. Why are they there for so long? 1605 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:51,200 Speaker 23: Why do they value longevity over getting things done? It's 1606 01:18:51,280 --> 01:18:56,080 Speaker 23: because they are doing deals amongst themselves in Washington, DC, 1607 01:18:56,600 --> 01:19:00,759 Speaker 23: unlimited amount of campaign money after the Citizens United ruling 1608 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:03,679 Speaker 23: allows the lobbyists and the special interest to flood their 1609 01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 23: call fers. They do deals, they don't act in the 1610 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:09,240 Speaker 23: interests of the people. They note that if they get 1611 01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:13,080 Speaker 23: enough super pac money coming into their campaigns that they 1612 01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:15,920 Speaker 23: can blast whatever messaging they want over the airwaves and 1613 01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,479 Speaker 23: get re elected because not that many people at the 1614 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:20,599 Speaker 23: end of the day actually show up to vote. 1615 01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:23,160 Speaker 7: It's a vicious cycle. It's a disgusting system. 1616 01:19:23,320 --> 01:19:27,160 Speaker 23: And I'm telling you we will never have true representative 1617 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:29,920 Speaker 23: government the way it was supposed to be unless we 1618 01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:33,480 Speaker 23: enact term moments because money in politics has gotten so egregious, 1619 01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:35,680 Speaker 23: it's gotten so out of hand, it has gotten so 1620 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:39,519 Speaker 23: demonstrably obviously corrupt, that we need to do something about it, 1621 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:40,240 Speaker 23: because it's. 1622 01:19:40,120 --> 01:19:41,640 Speaker 8: The only way we're going to stop it. 1623 01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:43,760 Speaker 23: If we have term limits and people can only be 1624 01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:46,960 Speaker 23: in there for six years, ten years, twelve years, whatever 1625 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:49,320 Speaker 23: the number is, we get a fresh face of people 1626 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:53,440 Speaker 23: who haven't gotten a litany of favors that they've exchanged 1627 01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:55,759 Speaker 23: with lobbyists and special interests for decades. 1628 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,400 Speaker 7: That creates the swamp that is the swamp. So the 1629 01:19:58,400 --> 01:19:59,920 Speaker 7: only way we can get rid of the term limit, 1630 01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:00,840 Speaker 7: I completely agree. 1631 01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:03,920 Speaker 5: You actually disagree with me entirely, but that's okay. I'm 1632 01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:06,040 Speaker 5: on the other side of it. But we can debate this. 1633 01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,680 Speaker 5: As I said, any place, anytime, anywhere, I would look at. 1634 01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:10,719 Speaker 4: Exactly. 1635 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:14,120 Speaker 6: You know, there's no time like the president. Doctor Gina, 1636 01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:16,120 Speaker 6: You've got the floor for a minut and a half. 1637 01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:17,920 Speaker 2: Ding ding ding ding. 1638 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:18,559 Speaker 8: Thank you. 1639 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:18,880 Speaker 4: All right. 1640 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:21,920 Speaker 5: So, Mike, here's the problem. Term limits sounds so good, 1641 01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:24,559 Speaker 5: and term limits are good when they are instituted by 1642 01:20:24,640 --> 01:20:28,519 Speaker 5: the voters. But to have laws that say that term 1643 01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:31,720 Speaker 5: limits need to be the rule means that we can't 1644 01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 5: even have conversations like the one that many want to 1645 01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:36,799 Speaker 5: have about President Trump doing a third term, for example. 1646 01:20:37,200 --> 01:20:42,320 Speaker 3: We are voluntarily seeding our power as voters to. 1647 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:45,840 Speaker 5: Vote people out or to keep them in in that 1648 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:49,720 Speaker 5: we lose institutional knowledge. That's the real danger here. I 1649 01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:52,600 Speaker 5: was four term limits in Missouri when my husband was 1650 01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:56,160 Speaker 5: in the House, and I absolutely thought it was the 1651 01:20:56,160 --> 01:21:00,000 Speaker 5: best idea ever. Campaigned for it on blacktops in the summertime, 1652 01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:02,320 Speaker 5: in the heat because I thought it was such an 1653 01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 5: important issue. Then I saw it instituted, got my way. 1654 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,840 Speaker 5: We won, and I realized that the problem with it 1655 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,800 Speaker 5: is that power doesn't go away. Power transfers, and it 1656 01:21:11,920 --> 01:21:14,960 Speaker 5: transfers from the elected official that I the voter get 1657 01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:20,280 Speaker 5: to hold accounts, hold accountable to their staffers and to lobbyists. 1658 01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 5: Then all the power concentrates in the hands of this 1659 01:21:23,120 --> 01:21:26,680 Speaker 5: staffers and the lobbyists, who now also have institutional knowledge 1660 01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:30,400 Speaker 5: that incoming freshmen reps don't have. And what happens is 1661 01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:32,120 Speaker 5: the freshman rep doesn't know what they're doing, so they're 1662 01:21:32,120 --> 01:21:34,880 Speaker 5: dependent on the staffers and the lobbyists who hold all 1663 01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:39,120 Speaker 5: the power and who stay through legislator after legislator after legislator, 1664 01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:42,559 Speaker 5: and you literally negate the power of we the people 1665 01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:49,120 Speaker 5: to institute policy by voting for our own representatives. It's 1666 01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:53,200 Speaker 5: an absolute tragedy. And what happens is the people see 1667 01:21:53,240 --> 01:21:57,920 Speaker 5: their own power. That's why corrupt politicians are absolutely for 1668 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,720 Speaker 5: term limits, because they know that that means they can 1669 01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:02,880 Speaker 5: then just control the lobbyist and the staffer and they 1670 01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:05,360 Speaker 5: have all the power and the voters have no more power. 1671 01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:07,479 Speaker 2: My shopping up a bit. 1672 01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:09,120 Speaker 7: I like this. 1673 01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:11,519 Speaker 23: I like this all right, So here's what I say 1674 01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:14,559 Speaker 23: to that, no matter everyone says, it's we the voter, 1675 01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:17,640 Speaker 23: and you know, the people decide. But here's the end 1676 01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:20,559 Speaker 23: of the line. It's an unfortunate reality. But we have 1677 01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:22,960 Speaker 23: a situation. We're only twenty thirty percent of people actually 1678 01:22:23,040 --> 01:22:25,679 Speaker 23: vote in elections. And if you throw ten million dollars 1679 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:27,920 Speaker 23: at any house race, the person who has the cash 1680 01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:30,360 Speaker 23: advantage is going to win ninety nine percent of the time. 1681 01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:31,439 Speaker 7: That's just the way it is. 1682 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:33,960 Speaker 23: If you're in Washington for a long time, you're gonna 1683 01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:36,040 Speaker 23: win the election. So I don't see any way you 1684 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 23: can get broken out. I agree with the premise of 1685 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:40,680 Speaker 23: the people should decide, and I have thought, yeah, you know, 1686 01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:42,479 Speaker 23: the people vote, and they're going to vote whether. 1687 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 7: They stay in or whether they go out. 1688 01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:46,280 Speaker 23: But I see the system where you know again, I've 1689 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:48,520 Speaker 23: run local elections, I've run campaigns. 1690 01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:51,000 Speaker 7: I have my own congressman who has a situation. If 1691 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 7: the cash advantage is. 1692 01:22:51,960 --> 01:22:54,280 Speaker 23: Going to be so demonishrable because somebody's been in Washington 1693 01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:57,559 Speaker 23: for such a long time, there is zero percent chance 1694 01:22:57,760 --> 01:23:00,599 Speaker 23: that the people will go eject somebody like Nancy Pelosi 1695 01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:03,240 Speaker 23: or somebody like Chris Smith has been in for forty 1696 01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:06,560 Speaker 23: eight years because they have such an institutional backing of 1697 01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:07,839 Speaker 23: the lobbies and special interests. 1698 01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:10,520 Speaker 7: Now, I agree Congress is very complicated. 1699 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 23: The way that they do procedure and the way that 1700 01:23:13,600 --> 01:23:17,000 Speaker 23: things work. It's a very convoluted thing. I think that 1701 01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:20,280 Speaker 23: we need better candidates. We need people actually understand how 1702 01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:22,280 Speaker 23: it works so they can go in in day one 1703 01:23:22,320 --> 01:23:24,400 Speaker 23: and actually go get it done. You see a lot 1704 01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 23: of people who run to quite frankly, I don't think 1705 01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:29,400 Speaker 23: are that qualified or they're like very easy to control, 1706 01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:32,080 Speaker 23: like little puppets. A lot of politicians like that on 1707 01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:34,040 Speaker 23: both sides, where you just go, how is this person 1708 01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:36,599 Speaker 23: a member of Congress? They're just not that intellectually smart, 1709 01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:39,320 Speaker 23: they're not that good. And that's because there really is 1710 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:42,280 Speaker 23: no incentive for the best and brightest to become representatives 1711 01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:45,160 Speaker 23: because they go into finance and tech and things where 1712 01:23:45,160 --> 01:23:46,599 Speaker 23: they make a whole lot of money. 1713 01:23:46,800 --> 01:23:48,800 Speaker 7: So I think that if there was a way to 1714 01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:49,519 Speaker 7: say that it's a. 1715 01:23:49,479 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 23: Temporary thing and you can go and then you could 1716 01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:54,360 Speaker 23: come back, and we incentivize the best in the brightest. 1717 01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:55,920 Speaker 23: I don't know how that is to get in there 1718 01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:57,800 Speaker 23: so they actually can understand and get grips of how 1719 01:23:57,800 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 23: it works so they're not like flying in the way 1720 01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:02,960 Speaker 23: and at the mercy of staffers or you know, people 1721 01:24:03,040 --> 01:24:05,559 Speaker 23: have been in there institutionally, doctor Gina, You're right, who 1722 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:08,040 Speaker 23: understand how it works. So if we have smarter people, 1723 01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:11,240 Speaker 23: then they will be able to make decisions for themselves. 1724 01:24:11,560 --> 01:24:12,880 Speaker 7: And that's just my side of it. 1725 01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:16,840 Speaker 2: I like this today you have people with character. Go ahead, David, well, 1726 01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:18,600 Speaker 2: what about this would you guys agree on? 1727 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:18,800 Speaker 22: Now? 1728 01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:19,759 Speaker 2: Hear me out for a second. 1729 01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:23,400 Speaker 1: A constitutional amendment on term limits because at that point 1730 01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:25,240 Speaker 1: you are putting it to the people, whether it be 1731 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:27,280 Speaker 1: a convention of states, and I know convention of states 1732 01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:29,160 Speaker 1: is a long shot, but then you got three quarters 1733 01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 1: of the states approving that. So, Gina, to your point, 1734 01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:34,880 Speaker 1: that has the people involved, and it. 1735 01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:39,160 Speaker 2: Kind of fits both. It is, it helps you both 1736 01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:40,080 Speaker 2: there in your arguments. 1737 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it satisfides what you want, Gina, we the people, 1738 01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:45,640 Speaker 1: and what Mike Chrispy is saying as well, I mean 1739 01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:47,040 Speaker 1: a constitutional amendment. 1740 01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:50,439 Speaker 5: Solves everything, not to me, because I still see it 1741 01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:53,680 Speaker 5: as American seeding their vote. And Mike, you brought up 1742 01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:55,680 Speaker 5: a great point though, Oh go ahead. 1743 01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:56,000 Speaker 7: Go ahead. 1744 01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:57,920 Speaker 2: No, I was gonna say, but but that's my point. 1745 01:24:57,920 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 2: If it's a constitutional amendment. 1746 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:02,160 Speaker 1: Then you've got to have three quarters of the states 1747 01:25:02,280 --> 01:25:03,400 Speaker 1: ratify that. 1748 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 2: I mean, that is we the people. 1749 01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,439 Speaker 5: Unfortunately, I just don't think most voters. I think most 1750 01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:09,839 Speaker 5: voters are just anxious to get people like Nancy Pelosi 1751 01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 5: and Chuck Schumer out, and I understand that, but it 1752 01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,120 Speaker 5: needs to be an individual vote that does it. You 1753 01:25:14,200 --> 01:25:16,679 Speaker 5: brought up one great point though, that I want to address, 1754 01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:20,160 Speaker 5: and that is the political class. That's one fragment of 1755 01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:23,800 Speaker 5: the politically elite, the ruling class, if you will. 1756 01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:25,000 Speaker 3: That I forgot. 1757 01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:27,800 Speaker 5: Benefits greatly from this, and my company, my family has 1758 01:25:27,800 --> 01:25:31,320 Speaker 5: a political consulting company, and we would profit greatly from 1759 01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:33,559 Speaker 5: term limits because there's so much more turnover and so 1760 01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:36,200 Speaker 5: many more elections to get involved with than profit from. 1761 01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:39,400 Speaker 5: But the bottom line is the voters, the electorates, the 1762 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:44,200 Speaker 5: American people lose. Our founders set it up the way 1763 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:47,639 Speaker 5: they did for a reason, and that is because they 1764 01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 5: understood institutional wisdom, and that when you give that up 1765 01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:53,839 Speaker 5: and put it in the hands of the ruling class, 1766 01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 5: the American voters lose. I saw it happen in Missouri. 1767 01:25:57,200 --> 01:25:59,920 Speaker 5: I had egg in my face for campaigning for it, 1768 01:26:00,439 --> 01:26:03,559 Speaker 5: and I can't honestly ever, support term limits again, at 1769 01:26:03,680 --> 01:26:07,559 Speaker 5: least not for anybody that doesn't already have term limits. 1770 01:26:08,040 --> 01:26:09,920 Speaker 4: Mike, I'm going to be the moderator. You have the 1771 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:10,599 Speaker 4: final word. 1772 01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:14,679 Speaker 23: I think it's I think it's a fair and spirited debate, 1773 01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:16,559 Speaker 23: and it comes down to, you know, the will of 1774 01:26:16,600 --> 01:26:19,280 Speaker 23: the people, and you know, doctor Gena and I both 1775 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:21,719 Speaker 23: have I guess, slightly differing opinions, but with the same 1776 01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:23,960 Speaker 23: man goal that you want the people to decide it. 1777 01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,040 Speaker 23: I just think that in today's state of affairs, the 1778 01:26:26,080 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 23: system has gotten so bad and it's it's beyond the 1779 01:26:29,120 --> 01:26:32,160 Speaker 23: pale of anything. Our founding fathers would have thought billions 1780 01:26:32,160 --> 01:26:35,000 Speaker 23: of dollars being poured into one center, you know, to 1781 01:26:35,080 --> 01:26:35,960 Speaker 23: influence these things. 1782 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:37,880 Speaker 7: I didn't think they think.

Today's 1832 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:07,920 Speaker 18: shopping isn't as hot as it used to be, with 1833 01:29:08,040 --> 01:29:12,640 Speaker 18: online sellers almost completely overtaking the holiday shopping market. Retailers 1834 01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:14,920 Speaker 18: are without a doubt noticing a shift in how Americans 1835 01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 18: plan to shop this holiday season in twenty twenty five, 1836 01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,679 Speaker 18: according to new data, a weakening sense of urgency around 1837 01:29:21,720 --> 01:29:25,479 Speaker 18: Black Friday, tighter budgets due to inflation and tariffs, and 1838 01:29:25,640 --> 01:29:29,719 Speaker 18: an increasing wake up to value over volume our driving behavior. 1839 01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:32,559 Speaker 18: This year, over half of consumers say Black Friday is 1840 01:29:32,560 --> 01:29:36,360 Speaker 18: no longer relevant, while almost two thirds report inflation and 1841 01:29:36,439 --> 01:29:40,280 Speaker 18: trade policy will impact their holiday spending. With gift spending 1842 01:29:40,360 --> 01:29:44,360 Speaker 18: still moving forward, shoppers are firmly shifting their dollars to clothing, 1843 01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:49,200 Speaker 18: gift certificates, and essential goods while postponing on those bigger splurges. 1844 01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:52,479 Speaker 18: For brick and mortar stores and online players alike, this 1845 01:29:52,640 --> 01:29:56,080 Speaker 18: means winning in twenty twenty five depends less on one 1846 01:29:56,120 --> 01:30:00,240 Speaker 18: big sale and more on early deals, loyalty offers, and 1847 01:30:00,400 --> 01:30:03,920 Speaker 18: real value. Let's bring in doctor Gina, David and Terrence 1848 01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 18: for more here. Gina, we were discussing a little bit 1849 01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:10,679 Speaker 18: about this earlier in the show, The impacts, the things 1850 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:14,679 Speaker 18: that are impacting Black Friday shopping this year.

A boat, 1854 01:30:22,800 --> 01:30:25,479 Speaker 5: always a boat, I'm always boat shopping. I'm always real 1855 01:30:25,560 --> 01:30:28,439 Speaker 5: estate shopping. I think what Jake said is very critical. 1856 01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:32,559 Speaker 5: I'm actively shopping right now to try to gather up 1857 01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:36,080 Speaker 5: some of these deals and also great tax incentives in 1858 01:30:36,120 --> 01:30:39,479 Speaker 5: the One Big Beautiful Bill the President Trump passed great 1859 01:30:39,560 --> 01:30:42,760 Speaker 5: tax incentives on depreciating real estate and things like that, 1860 01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,840 Speaker 5: and so definitely those are the places to shop if 1861 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:49,960 Speaker 5: you can. But I think healthy alternatives. You know, We've 1862 01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 5: always done these stockings at my house, and every year 1863 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:55,080 Speaker 5: my husband just goes hog wild shopping and I end 1864 01:30:55,120 --> 01:31:00,320 Speaker 5: up with just candy and cookies and just junk crossed 1865 01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:02,600 Speaker 5: my house. And so this year I am looking for 1866 01:31:02,680 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 5: healthy alternatives. And I'm not talking about fruit and vegetables. 1867 01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:07,479 Speaker 5: I'm talking about yummy stuff like I was talking about 1868 01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:10,599 Speaker 5: earlier the billtongue.

Those are the kinds of things. Nicotine patches, 1872 01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:24,400 Speaker 5: those are the kinds of things that I'm into this year. 1873 01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:26,639 Speaker 5: Lots of products from the Wellness Company is a great 1874 01:31:26,640 --> 01:31:30,799 Speaker 5: sponsor of our show.
