Let's go 56 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 2: to the Doge subcommittee return with Terry Shilling in a moment. 57 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 7: Twenty three alone, Americans privately donated over five hundred and 58 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 7: fifty seven billion of their own money. Corporations donated over 59 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 7: thirty seven billion. Foundations donated over one hundred and three billion. 60 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 7: That is incredible, credible of the American people. In twenty 61 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 7: twenty three, nearly seventy six million Americans, almost thirty percent 62 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 7: of Americans formally volunteered through in an organization. Volunteered. The 63 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 7: government did not make them do that. They did this 64 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 7: on their own. Donate in volunteering time is what supports 65 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 7: schools and shelters, hospitals and hotlines, food banks and more 66 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 7: across only our country, not only our country, but across 67 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 7: the world. Ask anyone in western North Carolina, whether it 68 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 7: be individuals, churches, or businesses. The American people are the 69 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 7: most generous people in the entire world, and I'm so 70 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 7: proud of that. They should be the ones who decide 71 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 7: where their money goes. They can choose if they want 72 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 7: to donate to a charity, a school, a church, or 73 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 7: a nonprofit. They can choose if they want to privately 74 00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 7: donate to a transgender salon in Mumbai. Choose if they 75 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 7: want to privately donate to the British Broadcasting Corporation. They 76 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 7: can choose if they want to privately donate to the 77 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 7: Wuhan Institute of Virology through EcoHealth Alliance, or to electric 78 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 7: vehicles in Vietnam, or to changing the national census in 79 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 7: Bangladesh to be more gender inclusive. That is something they 80 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 7: should be able to choose. That is something they should 81 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 7: never be forced to do by our government. The Democrat 82 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 7: run us AID should not get to use our federal government, 83 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 7: our US taxpayer dollars as their party piggybank to push 84 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 7: their radical agenda in countries that we have no business 85 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 7: giving money to. Ninety six percent of all political contributions 86 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 7: from USAID employees go to Democrat party candidates or packs. 87 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 7: That's ninety six percent. Not only is USAID giving seventy 88 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 7: thousand dollars for a Dei musical in Ireland or fifty 89 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 7: thousand for transgender opera in Colombia, or entrench to entrench 90 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 7: their left wing ideology across the globe. USAID has been 91 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 7: transformed into an America Last foreign aid slush fund to 92 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 7: prop up extremist groups, implement censorship campaigns, and interfere in 93 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 7: foreign elections to force regime change around the world. That 94 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 7: is the dark truth about USAID. That is a story 95 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 7: the American people deserve to know. Not only was USAID 96 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 7: never designed to be what it has morphed into, but 97 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 7: these things should never have been funded in the first place. 98 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 7: In fiscal year twenty twenty three, USAID disperse roughly forty 99 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 7: four billion of aid across one hundred and sixty countries 100 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 7: and regions around the world. During the four years of 101 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 7: the Biden administration, one hundred eighty one countries received approximately 102 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 7: two hundred and forty billion in US development aid, with 103 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 7: Ukraine being the top recipient. Other top recipients include Ethiopia, Jordan, Israel, 104 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 7: and Somalia. So after hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars 105 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 7: have been distributed throughout the world. Has the world become safer? 106 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 3: No? 107 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 7: Has the world become more stable? 108 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 3: No? 109 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 7: Is the perception of the United States around the globe 110 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 7: any better? 111 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 8: No? 112 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 7: But have some of the most anti democratic principles, like 113 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 7: censorship and the canceling of elections been funded through USAID 114 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 7: because of opposition to the ruling regimes? 115 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: Yes? 116 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 7: Has money through USAID been funneled to terrorists? 117 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: Yes. 118 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,559 Speaker 7: Foreign aid from USAID to the UN, particularly the UN 119 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 7: Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian refugees in the Near East, 120 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 7: is directly funding Hamas terrorists. Humanitarian relief intended for the 121 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 7: Afghan people was diverted to the Taliban. Money intended to 122 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 7: support democracy is being used as a slush fund for 123 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 7: liberal propagandas supporting terrorists, gender ideology, diversity, equity and inclusion, 124 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 7: climate activism, censorship, and regime change. Do you think this 125 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 7: is what the American people think of when they think 126 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 7: of foreign aid? Absolutely not. Taxpayer funds have literally been 127 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 7: used to undermine US interest and counter American foreign policy 128 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 7: goals under the guise of foreign aid. This is unacceptable, 129 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 7: and the American people agree Thankfully, President Trump has taken 130 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 7: action to address these issues. The election of President Trump 131 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 7: was a clear mandate by the American people that they 132 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 7: will no longer tolerate this. He is putting an end 133 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 7: to the foreign aid slush fund, ensuring the hard working 134 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 7: American taxpayers dollars are supporting America First policies and taking 135 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 7: care of our own people at home, and we will 136 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 7: do the same with that. I now recognize Ranking Member 137 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 7: Stansbury for the purpose of making an opening statement. 138 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 9: All right, well, good morning everyone, and welcome to the 139 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 9: Elon Musk Chainsaw Massacre. Except for this remake of a 140 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 9: classic is terrible because it's hurting real people and its 141 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 9: lead character, mister Musk, hasn't shown up in front of 142 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 9: this committee or Congress at all. We also, of course 143 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 9: call this the Subcommittee on Doge or Project twenty twenty five, 144 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 9: as we'll see here during the Q and A so today, 145 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 9: in this hearing on Foreign Aid, which the GOP has called, 146 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 9: you're gonna hear all of wild conspiracy theories, accusations, and 147 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 9: unfounded data. It's designed to confuse and provide cover for 148 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 9: Donald Trump and Elon Musk in their reckless gutting of 149 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 9: our foreign aid and are reordering under the Trump administration 150 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 9: of International Affairs. But before we dive into the details, 151 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 9: I want to zoom out and provide some critical context 152 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 9: here about why this is happening. So, first of all, 153 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 9: let's talk about what happened over the last two weeks 154 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 9: as the administration took an abrupt about face in international relations, 155 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 9: after sixty four years of usaid and supporting our allies 156 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 9: in Europe, turning its back on long standing allies, and 157 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 9: now suddenly embracing and enabling US foreign adversaries. Let's do 158 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 9: a little oversight here. Last week, the administration shocked the 159 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 9: world as the Vice President took to the global stage 160 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 9: and addressed European leaders and informed them that the Trump 161 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 9: administration believes that the greatest threat to Europe is not 162 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 9: the autocratic leader who invaded our western ally three years 163 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,119 Speaker 9: ago and committed war crimes and atrocities against the Ukrainian 164 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 9: people and threatened Western democracy, but instead, the VP said 165 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 9: it was quote a threat from within. He then snubbed 166 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 9: our German allies and in an unprecedented move, tacitly endorsed 167 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 9: and then met with a far right candidate from the 168 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 9: German Parliament, who Elon Musk has spent months backing. 169 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: This is a. 170 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 9: Party that is so extreme that even conservatives in Germany 171 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 9: will not form a government with them. Then over the weekend, 172 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 9: Donald Trump went on a wild rant on social media, 173 00:10:54,520 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 9: embracing Vladimir Putin and repeating Russian propaganda, trying to rewrite history, 174 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 9: and falsely claimed that Ukraine started a war against its 175 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 9: own people. Then on Monday, Trump had the United States 176 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 9: of America vote against Russia. Vote vote with Russia, North Korea, 177 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 9: and China as four of the only eight countries in 178 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 9: the world voting in the UN against a resolution supporting 179 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 9: Ukraine and affirming Ukraine's sovereignty. When you think about what 180 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 9: this means in the context of American history, it's truly astonishing. 181 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 9: That same day, which was only two days ago, the 182 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 9: administration announced that they would proceed with firing another two 183 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 9: thousand USAID workers, even as a court ruled that the 184 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 9: administration's dismantling of the aid organization is illegal. And interestingly, 185 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 9: one of the main opponents of USAID programs is Donald 186 00:11:54,679 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 9: Trump's buddy, Vladimir Putin. Why because among the programs that 187 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 9: the US was funding before the funding was frozen. Was 188 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 9: aid to Ukraine, including safe houses on the front lines, 189 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 9: a free and open press to help keep people informed 190 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 9: what was happening in the war, not to mention refugee 191 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 9: resettlement in the United States. USAID was also engaged in 192 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 9: democracy building in Eastern Europe and the Balkans, especially with 193 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 9: the fall of the USSR. Of course, mister Putin didn't 194 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 9: like that either, and these investments have been totally decimated 195 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 9: over the last several weeks. Over the last five years, 196 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 9: USAID has funded international aid to two hundred and twelve 197 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 9: countries around the world to promote international peace and security, 198 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 9: to help maintain stability and ensure that we are making 199 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 9: good on America's promises. These investments are a fraction of 200 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 9: the cost of weapons and defense, and the US in 201 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 9: the process is able to help promote national security, stop 202 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 9: global pandemics, prevent hunger and mass migrations, and make the 203 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 9: world and the United States a safer place. So when 204 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 9: we hear conservative allies of Donald Trump repeat wild and 205 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 9: unfounded claims about international aid, and we see a coordinated 206 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 9: attack by conservative media think tanks like those who are 207 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 9: here today. Members of Congress, the administration, we have to 208 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 9: ask ourselves, what is really going on here, folks? Why 209 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 9: the hell are they so hell bent on dismantling an 210 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 9: organization that has been so vital to American interests in 211 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 9: Western democracy for so long. Over the last several days 212 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 9: they have fired thousands of federal employees. It really does 213 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 9: make you wonder, doesn't it. And by the way, while 214 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 9: they've been doing that, China has actually moved in already 215 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 9: to places in South Asia that had their funding cut 216 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 9: and is beginning to replace American diplomacy and aid in 217 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:07,079 Speaker 9: those places. 218 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: So as we listen to. 219 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 9: This hearing today and hear from our witnesses, which I 220 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 9: look forward to, I hope that we can get to 221 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 9: the bottom of what is actually going on here today, 222 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 9: And with that I look forward to hearing the testimony. 223 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 7: January twenty fourth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio gave an 224 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 7: order that came with a waiver for emergency food assistance, 225 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 7: which was broadened even further several days later for life 226 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 7: saving services. 227 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: Secretary of Rubio. 228 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 7: Has stated very clearly, we have a blanket waiver, and 229 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 7: anybody who tells you they don't understand it, let me 230 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 7: repeat it in very simple words, if it saves lives, 231 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 7: if it's emergency, life saving aid, food medicine, whatever, they 232 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 7: have a waiver. I don't know how much clearer we 233 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 7: can be. And if we're not applying it, then maybe 234 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 7: we're not a very good organization and maybe they shouldn't 235 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 7: be getting any money at all. Additionally, in kind food 236 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 7: assistants purchased from US farmers is continuing. I'm please to 237 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 7: introduce our witnesses today. Max Primarak is a senior research 238 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 7: fellow at the Heritage Foundation. 239 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 2: We're going to get back to some of the witnesses. 240 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 2: We're dip in and out of this, particularly as you know, 241 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: we will focus somewhat on the Democrats asking cheap shot 242 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 2: questions because you see the angle of attack they're coming 243 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 2: out of the information warfare. I know the audience loved 244 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 2: hurt the congresswoman's tea up right there. I could hear 245 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 2: heads blowing up as it went. But you're seen, this 246 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: is what half the country hears every day. Is that 247 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 2: that's what we have to combat. I want to go 248 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 2: to shilling for a second. Arry's back, whether it's Terry, 249 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 2: and this story is not getting the amount of coverage 250 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 2: it should get, so let's hit rewind quickly. I don't 251 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 2: think the cabin mean is going to start to the 252 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 2: bottom of the hour. We're going to dip back in 253 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: and out of some of the explosive testimony and questions 254 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 2: from the Democrats and the doge hearing. But there was 255 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: a I guess a chat room or some sort of 256 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 2: digital space where people at the National Security Agency NSA, 257 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: which is the Fort Meade, the spook of all spooks, right, 258 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 2: and coupled with CIA personnel, was a chat room with 259 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 2: what affinity group LGBTQ plus plus what was it? 260 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 3: Yep, No, that's right. 261 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 6: So basically these were NSA and CIA employees and even 262 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 6: DA there were Navy employees on here that were all 263 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 6: communicating Steve. 264 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 3: The group chats got leaked. 265 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 6: Right, This is like the nightmare for every young man 266 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 6: out there.

But the pea thing is something I never 286 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 6: thought of, but it's really nice. These are people that 287 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 6: are talking at their government employees, doing this on work hours, 288 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 6: on government property. 289 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 3: This is all like sexual harassment. 290 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 6: You're not in the workplace and normals you're not allowed 291 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 6: to talk about things of a sexual nature. 292 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 3: There's whole sections. 293 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 6: Where there's one person in here that's fantasizing about the 294 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 6: idea of having a hermaphrodite child so that they could 295 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 6: truly raise them as a true non binary baby.

There's this I'm 305 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 6: gonna read this paragraph because maybe the war room posse 306 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 6: can explain it to me. And by the way, this 307 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 6: is at four forty pm in the afternoon on a workday. 308 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 3: So mine looks like a triple. 309 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 6: Bond with P two, with P three and P four 310 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 6: who have triple bond between each other, double bonds with 311 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 6: P five and P six who have a triple bond. 312 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 6: I think this is like, so there's a big group 313 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 6: of people, like six people that are all or sorry, 314 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 6: it's total of eight people in this group.

But this is what I'm missing. 320 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 2: These people have super high security. This is not like 321 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 2: confidential secret, top secret. These people have the highest security 322 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 2: clearances by the most secretive agencies in our government that 323 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 2: have the most sensitive and material that one could argue, 324 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 2: and I'm. 325 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: A big believer in de classifying. 326 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 2: Most of the stuff, but if you had to have 327 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 2: certain stuff that was classified for national security, these would 328 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 2: be the places that have. That's what's this is not 329 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 2: like some you know, affinity group out there. 330 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: You know that that's an a group of activists. 331 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 2: There's not some corporate you know, good corporation that has 332 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 2: this as part of a DEI initiative. These are people 333 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 2: with incredibly high that have been deemed by our country 334 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 2: and by the apparatus, the the national security and intelligence 335 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 2: apparatus that oversees the deep state and supposedly oversees the 336 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 2: security of the country. These people have been deemed guardians 337 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 2: of our republic in the biggest state secrets, state secrets 338 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: of our republic are they not. 339 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 6: No, that's what is so enraging about this seed. These 340 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 6: are the watchmen. These are people that should be like 341 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 6: daily mascow ers, people that are constantly praying. These are 342 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 6: people that should have like the cleanest reputations, nothing weird 343 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 6: in their background, totally normal, like very boring people. These 344 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 6: should be like autists basically, who just process numbers and 345 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 6: process data. 346 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 3: They don't have emotions, they. 347 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 6: Aren't distracted by all this crazy sexual stuff. 348 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 3: But these are the watchmen. 349 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 6: And here's where I think it gets really interesting, Steve, 350 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 6: is that I think there's I think these people have 351 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 6: no shame. They're so like lost, They're so like in 352 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 6: this disordered world that they don't even realize how offensive 353 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 6: this is to a factory worker, or to a plumber, 354 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 6: or to like people out there slaving away making this 355 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 6: country actually run. They don't realize how disordered their lives 356 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 6: are that they're just openly talking about it. 357 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 3: These are things that are shameful. 358 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 6: These are things that anyone would should be embarrassed if 359 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 6: it got leaked. 360 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 3: But I think that the people at the top. 361 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 6: And here's the thing, Steve, I'm sorry, this is just 362 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 6: a lot the NSA and the CIA, the intelligence agency 363 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 6: is they didn't know about these threads going on. Their 364 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 6: superiors either weren't paying attention or don't or were Steve 365 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 6: if they weren't paying attention, or they don't think it's bad, right, 366 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 6: And I think that that's worse because if you don't 367 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 6: think this stuff is bad, what do you think is bad? 368 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 3: The answer is they think they. 369 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, they can listen, they can listen to all your 370 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 2: phone calls that they knew this was going on. I 371 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 2: want to connect to Dot two back to the CNN 372 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 2: lead on I think it was Sunday. They're saying that 373 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 2: the DOJE effort are reducing this reduction of force the RIFF, 374 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 2: particularly where it hits something, and they use the CIA 375 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 2: specifically when it hits Langley, that you're you're going to 376 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 2: cause a national security problem because you have all these 377 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 2: people that have these very high security clearances that are 378 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 2: now going to be cut loose, and that could be 379 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 2: a breeding ground for foreign intelligence services like the Chinese 380 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 2: companies Party or the Persians or the Russians whoever, to 381 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 2: basically scoop these people up and get their secrets. Well, 382 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 2: right here, these guys knew this was going on. It's 383 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 2: impossible that senior authorities, because I'm sure there's a couple 384 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 2: of three senior authorities in the chat room itself. It's 385 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 2: impots also, they didn't know this is going on. And 386 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 2: you see the level of depravity and the opportunity not 387 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 2: just for blackmail, but if these people were let go, 388 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 2: which they to me they should be terminated immediately and prosecuted, 389 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 2: they could flip with the highest state secrets we have 390 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 2: and our methods and processes right and turn it over 391 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 2: to foreign intelligence services. 392 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: Terry Shilling. 393 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 6: No, that's exactly where Steve. If Chris Rufo was able 394 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 6: to get this, the CCP have it, They've had it 395 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 6: for a long time, that the Russians have it, All 396 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 6: of our enemies have it. If Chris Rufo and you 397 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 6: and I are talking about this on TV right now, 398 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 6: these guys had it years ago probably, And I actually 399 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 6: think this might explain a lot of the crazy decisions 400 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 6: that Biden made in his White House. And I think also, 401 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 6: you know, I've always wondered why Mark Milly thought it 402 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 6: was a good idea to call the Chinese and tip 403 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,919 Speaker 6: them off that he was going to stop anything that 404 00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 6: Donald Trump might be doing. Out the door he called 405 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 6: foreign adversary and let them know he would let them 406 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 6: know about any attacks potentially coming. Why would he do 407 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 6: that unless they had some compromising information. I mean, I 408 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 6: think this brings a lot to light. These agencies are 409 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 6: completely compromised at this point. Who else do we have 410 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 6: information on? This is just what's public and when it 411 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 6: gets to me, it's not confidential whatsoever. Right so, I 412 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 6: think this is very dangerous and we need to completely 413 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,679 Speaker 6: clean house. We are in serious danger and our national 414 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 6: security is in peril right now. 415 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 1: I think, Terry, where did we go? 416 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: You're breaking all types of stories like this and working 417 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 2: on making sure this mess gets cleaned up as others. 418 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 2: Because Tulci Gabbert is put down the word that she's 419 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 2: doing a major investigation on this right now, I'm sure 420 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 2: it's going to be a topic in the cabinet meeting 421 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 2: that is going to take place here momentarily. 422 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: Where do people go to get you for additional information? 423 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 6: The best thing that the quickest breaking way to get 424 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 6: information out there now right now, Steve is on X 425 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 6: follow me on acts. That's shilling seventeen seventy six. I'm 426 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 6: on every platform though, so it's all just shilling. 427 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 3: Seventeen seventy six. 428 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: Is as you see it. 429 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 2: This was on the driving factors in President Trump's election, 430 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: and it's getting worse. President Trump is taking action like 431 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 2: Tulca Gabber's taking action. But the resistance on this is 432 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 2: not going away. In fact, I actually think they're digging 433 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 2: in harder. Do you anticipate? First off, am I correct 434 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 2: in that? Or that's just my perception? 435 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: Number one? And number two? 436 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 2: Do you see this rolling out and even taking a 437 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: playing a part in the Virginia governor's race, which is 438 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 2: probably the most important political race we have this year, sir. 439 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 6: Well, don't sleep on New Jersey, Steve, because I think 440 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 6: we got a shot to win both in Virginia New 441 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 6: Jersey and these culture war toper is going to be. 442 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 3: Front and center now. 443 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 6: The resistance isn't going away, in fact, it's just changing battlefield. 444 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 3: So you're right. Trump is winning on. 445 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 6: The culture war, especially on the gender ident stuff, cleaning 446 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 6: up girls' sports and protecting our kids. 447 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 3: And if you look at the polling on this, it's insane. 448 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 6: Trump is talking about this publicly saying it's a ninety 449 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 6: percent approval. He's right, He's not you know, he talks 450 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 6: a good game, sometimes talks a lot of trash, but 451 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 6: he's actually right. The numbers are like eighty six eighty 452 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 6: seven percent approval on the gender identity stuff he's doing. 453 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 3: But here's where they're moving the battlefield to. 454 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,239 Speaker 6: Is the courts right and the whole I talked to 455 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 6: Mike Dave after our conversation last week. I talked to 456 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 6: Mike Davis about this, about these temporary restraining orders, that 457 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 6: these nationwide injunctions that these judges are doing. So next 458 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 6: step is for the Trump administration to challenge those temporary 459 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 6: restraining orders. But here's where it gets interesting and very 460 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 6: good for us, Steve, the Supreme Court has made it 461 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 6: very clear over the past few months that they are 462 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 6: growing tired of these nationwide injunctions because they're being abused. 463 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 6: So the longer we need to keep fighting on this 464 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 6: gender identity stuff because it's so if the judges at 465 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 6: the lower levels, the districts and the appeal courts keep 466 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 6: messing around, they're going to find out because the Supreme 467 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 6: Court is going to take away their ability to do 468 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 6: these garbage nationwide injunctions. So keep fighting on the gender 469 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 6: identity stuff because the left can't back away from it. 470 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 6: Force them to do these nationwide injunctions, and then we 471 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 6: can get rid of them entirely because the Supreme Court 472 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 6: will restrict the Lower Court's ability to continue to do 473 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 6: these nationwide injunctions. 474 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 3: We just need to keep fighting on. It's a great 475 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 3: opening for us. 476 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 2: Last point on this, when Natalie Winners talks about embeds, 477 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 2: this is what she's talking about. You have in these 478 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 2: two and a half three million government employees, right, these bureaucrats, 479 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 2: the people that run the administrative state and the deep state. 480 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 2: You have these types of people. These are Trump haters, 481 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 2: and these people are depraved. There's nothing they won't do 482 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 2: to destroy MAGA. This is where it gets to be 483 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 2: a spiritual war and I strongly recommend and it's going 484 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 2: to be quite distasteful because it was, like I said, 485 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 2: this is not my line of country man. 486 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: It was rough reading. 487 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 2: But Chris Rufo has done a tremendous public service by 488 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 2: putting this stuff up. And Terry's you know, because we 489 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 2: talked about how can we even put it up on 490 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 2: the show, and much less how we can put it 491 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 2: on the morning part of the show right where there's 492 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 2: so many homeschoolers. But this has to be addressed. And 493 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 2: this is what Natalie means by imbeds that your governments replete, 494 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 2: maybe not not in this topic, but analogous other chat 495 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 2: rooms doing other things right, maybe not quite so depraved, 496 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 2: but the government's full of this. 497 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: And this is what President Trump. 498 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 2: These are and Bez, this is where President Trump has 499 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 2: to fight every day. It's like being Saigon in nineteen 500 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 2: sixty seven. 501 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: Terry shilling one more time? Where are they going Twitter 502 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: to get you? 503 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 6: It's just shilling seventeen seventy six.

I now recognize myself for five minutes of questions, 528 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 7: and I will inform this committee and the public watching 529 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 7: that if in pardon, oh sorry, I'm sorry, mister Unger, apologize. 530 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 7: I didn't mean to skip over you. I now recognize 531 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 7: mister Hunger for five minutes. 532 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 4: Madam, Chair, Ranking Member Stansbury, Distinguished members of the Subcommittee. 533 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 4: I am honored to share my views with you. They're 534 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 4: my own and not those of my current or former employers. 535 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 4: I have served at USAID in the State Department in 536 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 4: multiple roles and in non governmental positions focused on US 537 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 4: foreign aid reform and global development. My government service took 538 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 4: place during the administrations of presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, 539 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 4: and Donald Trump. Every US administration since World War Two 540 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 4: has wanted to shape foreign aid in line with its goals, 541 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 4: but strangling the system into extinction is akin to unilaterally disarming. 542 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 4: At a time of mounting geopolitical competition for partnerships globally, 543 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 4: throwing away our toolbox does not make US safer or 544 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 4: well positioned to influence the world. Our set of foreign 545 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 4: aid tools reflects enlightened self interest. With it, the US 546 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 4: countered communism and enhance the education, farming, productivity, and health 547 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 4: of people around the world, while also saving lives. Our 548 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 4: international aids and malaria programs have collectively saved more than 549 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 4: thirty five million lives over the past couple decades. US 550 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 4: assistance has also built partnerships and economic growth, so much 551 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 4: so that eleven of America's fifteen biggest trading partners were 552 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 4: former recipients of US foreign assistants. We are now in 553 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 4: a period of renewed geostrategic competition. China has been vying 554 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 4: with the US for partnerships across the global South, inking 555 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 4: deals where it can. China can and will fill soft 556 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 4: power voids left by the US. Other potential threats to 557 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 4: our security are also connected to developing countries and fragile states, 558 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 4: from the potential resurgence of ISIS in the Middle East 559 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 4: to the spreading influence of Islamist militants and Russian mercenaries 560 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 4: across the Sahel. On the eastern edge of Europe, Russian 561 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 4: aggression may continue to grow unchecked, and in Columbia, the 562 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 4: strife from neighboring Venezuela is spilling over to yield the 563 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 4: worst violence in a generation. With that backdrop, the administration 564 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 4: has abruptly and collectively disabled US tools of foreign assistance. 565 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 4: The White House has said it is cutting programs that 566 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 4: do not benefit Americans, but their approach is dismantling many 567 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 4: programs that help Americans, thereby cutting off our nose. Despite 568 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 4: our face, this is evident in many ways. First, the 569 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 4: government has purchased more than two billion dollars in food 570 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 4: aid annually from American farmers, and American farms supply more 571 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 4: than forty percent of the food aid USAID sends around 572 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 4: the world. But with the foreign aid freeze and stop 573 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 4: work order, rice, wheat and soybeans are going to waste 574 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 4: in transit and imports in Houston alone, hundreds of tons 575 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 4: of America and grown wheat have been stranded. The recklessness 576 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 4: of the current approach is evident in health efforts too. 577 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 4: We need our foreign aid to prevent outbreaks of infectious 578 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 4: diseases from spreading before reaching our shores, but US funded 579 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 4: early detection and treatment for deadly diseases like ebola have 580 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 4: sputtered to a standstill. Even we're very okay. 581 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 2: Right there, and they'll be cross examination, and what I appreciate, 582 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 2: of course, the Democrats get to put up some of 583 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 2: MTGS running. 584 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: I'm pretty even handed right there. 585 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: You have a you have a counter right to saying, hey, 586 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 2: there's done too quickly without thought that these these programs 587 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 2: in the past have helped when the Cold War, et cetera, 588 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 2: et cetera. 589 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: I think with a. 590 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 2: Reality is that they became way off track National Review. 591 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 2: In fact, i'll address it to this afternoon talk about 592 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 2: I think the Endowment for Democracy, the fun for democracy, 593 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 2: which is a big item during the Cold War, but 594 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 2: these get way off track as you're not just the 595 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 2: woke and weaponized, but you have a totally different mindset 596 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 2: that particularly hates and this is one of the reasons 597 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 2: that the postwar international rules based order turned on the 598 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 2: American people, turned on working class people as the enemy. 599 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 2: First they gutted the factories, the lords of easy money 600 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 2: on Wall Street, the private equity, the funds, the hedge funds, 601 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 2: shipped the jobs to make money overseas, so they gutt it. 602 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 2: This is the economic distress. This is why working so 603 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 2: many working class people have to have I don't know. 604 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 2: They call it economic security or food security, the big 605 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 2: snap programs, food stamp programs, plus medicaid. It's the economic 606 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 2: distress of the working class in the middle class, put 607 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 2: on by an economic model that didn't put citizens first. 608 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 2: It didn't put citizens first. What it did was was 609 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: ravage the rawst and a most corrupt form of state 610 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 2: in crony capitalism, so that they took, they socialized all 611 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 2: the risk, and they kept unlimited upside for themselves. What 612 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 2: do I mean by that? Whether they have bank failure 613 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 2: in two thousand and eight or a bank failure in 614 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 2: Silicon Valley Bank, or you have or you have right now. 615 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 2: And I've got this fascinating book from Alexander Karp called 616 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 2: The Technological Republic, and he's the head of Pallanteer and 617 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 2: of all the oligarchs, he's probably the one least on 618 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 2: the spectrum, but he makes an argument for another Marshall 619 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 2: Plan or Mercury Space Plan to essentially bail out the 620 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 2: oligarchs because they haven't hit their marks on this Faustian 621 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 2: bargain that we made with them, that the Obama administration 622 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 2: and Biden made with them to let me become oligarchs 623 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 2: so they could control the commanding heights of the algorithmic age. 624 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,439 Speaker 1: They failed in that flat out. 625 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 2: This is what this is, what this whole USA idea is, 626 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 2: and that's only one thing I hope today's hearing. 627 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: I think a lot of it's going to be USA idea. 628 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 2: I know they had the guy from Rob Leowie's Daily 629 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 2: Signal that wrote the book Woke to PUS, which is 630 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 2: quite fascinating. He kind of ties it all together, not 631 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 2: just a woke agenda, but also how it was executed, 632 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 2: and usaid is a is a has been one that 633 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 2: we've been on for a long time, you know, playing 634 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 2: by the rules, and that's what people were doing. The 635 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 2: House continued to override one what President Trump wanted to do, 636 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:39,760 Speaker 2: but then its own members Matt Gates, MTG. Lauren Bobert, 637 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 2: Eli Crane, Andy Biggs, Gosar, Thomas Massey. Name sound familiar 638 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 2: that tried to gut USA I d and were overridden 639 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 2: by Republican votes. So the committee hearing will dip back in. 640 00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 2: What I'd like to do is I like to go 641 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 2: back in and when the Democrats. I think this worked 642 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 2: well on the confirmation hearing because you see how they're 643 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 2: playing ball. We need you, your information warriors. The reason 644 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 2: we've had so many victories is because of you and 645 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 2: because you're well armed and focused. Let me say at 646 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 2: Sea Pack, I was amazing. Once again, when the posse 647 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 2: gets together, I'm able to do these meet and greets, 648 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:27,800 Speaker 2: and we'll do one this Friday at Terrant County. 649 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 6: Is. 650 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 2: I hear what you're working on, and it amazes me 651 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 2: the sharp focus that you have on those items of 652 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 2: the day that most interest you. The hardest thing we 653 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 2: have for the show is to keep ahead of the audience. 654 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 2: The hardest thing now is actually to find time to 655 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,839 Speaker 2: do everything we want to do, particularly with the live 656 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 2: coverage we want to give of activities, particularly in the 657 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 2: White House, because this is historic. You're seeing history being made. 658 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 2: And I've talked to my production team and Grace and 659 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 2: Moe and others, and of. 660 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: Course that folks at Real America's voice. 661 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 2: And because we have access now with Natalie and Amanda 662 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 2: Head and and and and Brian at the White House, 663 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 2: you're seeing history being made there every day. I mean, 664 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 2: these are these were President Trump is using and moving 665 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 2: the big muscles. This is not marginalia. Let's go back 666 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 2: to the You know the Clintons. Everybody says the Clinton's included, 667 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 2: they feel they're wasted their presidency playing small ball. In hindsight, 668 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 2: you know school uniforms. Clinton doesn't have any real now. 669 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:38,840 Speaker 2: He sits and goes, well, you know, it's decades nothing happens, 670 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 2: and there are weeks in which decades happened. I would 671 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 2: argue differently. You had to follow the You had the 672 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 2: Berlin Wall in eighty nine, but then you had the 673 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 2: whole situation in Russia was mishandled by Clinton, and you 674 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 2: had plenty of opportunities with the Chinese companies party, Yet 675 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 2: you gave him World Trade Organization and gave the most 676 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 2: servi nation on Clinton. I know this was totally related 677 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 2: to Chinese generals walking through the White House with bags 678 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,280 Speaker 2: of cash. 679 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: But they blow it. Trump's not blowing it. 680 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 2: Every day in the Trump white House is like a 681 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 2: term in the Clinton white House. 682 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 1: It's just it's amazing. 683 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 2: I can tell we go through and I look at 684 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 2: night of what is planned the next day in the 685 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 2: white is what they've done. It's just it's so monumental 686 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,280 Speaker 2: in so many different areas. That's why the first Cabinet 687 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,720 Speaker 2: me has not started yet to run a little tentatively 688 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 2: scheduled for eleven. 689 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 1: Then they think they pushed eleven thirty. 690 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 2: What will happen many times, just to give you how 691 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 2: it's run. People start congregating and they'll get into the 692 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 2: oval and President Trump's holding court. I mean, he's getting feedback. 693 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 2: He's a people person. He's a guy that he takes 694 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 2: a lot of meetings. Took a lot of meetings when 695 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 2: he ran Trump Organization. He would say, he would tell 696 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 2: me all the time. He didn't come in because he's 697 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 2: not a corporate guy. He doesn't come in with a 698 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 2: set of agenda and people briefing and everything like that. 699 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 2: He's a In golf, we called a field player. It's 700 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 2: about the field, don't you know. They like they don't 701 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 2: have a manufactured classic swing. They're a field player, and 702 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 2: that's what he is in business. He sits there and 703 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 2: the other thing people don't understand, he's a listener. Now 704 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 2: when he's got the press in there, he's dropping bombs 705 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 2: and driving things. What do we got, Oh, the cabinet 706 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 2: is about to start. Let's go live to the White House. 707 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: Let's go ahead. 708 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 5: Hey, thank you very much. We appreciate you being here. 709 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 10: And we've put together a great cabinet and we've had 710 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 10: tremendous success and we've been given a lot of credit 711 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 10: for having a very successful first month and we want 712 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 10: to make that many months and years actually, but we're 713 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 10: gonna have many good months and we're gonna have many 714 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 10: good years, I hope, and we're going to solve a 715 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:47,280 Speaker 10: lot of problems. 716 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 5: We're doing very well with Russia Ukraine. 717 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 10: President Zolensky is going to be coming on Friday, that's 718 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 10: now confirmed, and we're gonna be signing an agreement which 719 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 10: will be a very big agreement. And I want to 720 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 10: think and Scott for the job you guys did and 721 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 10: putting it together, really did a an amazing job. And 722 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 10: that'll be on Rare Earth and other things. And as 723 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 10: you know, we're in for probably three hundred and fifty 724 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:19,320 Speaker 10: billion dollars. The Europe is in for one hundred billion dollars, 725 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 10: and that's a big difference. 726 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 5: So we're in for probably three times as much. 727 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 10: And yet it's very important everybody, but Europe is very close. 728 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 5: We have a big ocean. 729 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 10: Separating and so it's very important for Europe and they 730 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 10: hopefully will step up and do maybe more than they're doing, 731 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 10: and maybe a lot more. The previous administration put us 732 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 10: in a very bad position, but we've been able to 733 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 10: make a deal where we're going to get our money 734 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 10: back and we're gonna get a lot of money in 735 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:48,240 Speaker 10: the future. 736 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 5: And I think that's appropriate because. 737 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 10: We have taxpayers that are shouldn't be footing the bill, 738 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,879 Speaker 10: and they shouldn't be putting the bill at more than 739 00:41:58,200 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 10: the Europeans are bang. 740 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 5: So it's all been worked out. 741 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 10: We're happy about it, and I think that very importantly, 742 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 10: we're gonna be able to make a deal. Most importantly 743 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 10: by far, we're gonna make a deal with Russia and 744 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 10: Ukraine to stop killing people. They'll stop killing young Russian 745 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 10: soldiers and young Ukrainian soldiers and other people. In addition, 746 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 10: in the towns and cities, and we will consider that 747 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 10: a very important thing and a big accomplishment because it 748 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 10: was going nowhere until this administration came in. 749 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,879 Speaker 5: They hadn't spoken to President Putin in two years. And 750 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 5: so we'll, uh, we'll keep you advised. 751 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 10: Before we begin the cabinet, I'd like to have Scott 752 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 10: and a couple of people say a few things. 753 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 5: But most importantly, where are you. 754 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 10: This is a gentleman who's going places the head of 755 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 10: HUT and he's gonna say, you all know, and you're 756 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 10: gonna say grace and if they well of our meeting, right, 757 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 10: Thank you. 758 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 11: Very much, Thank you. 759 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 5: Let's pray.

Great job. 790 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 10: In just over one month, illegal voter crossings have plummeted 791 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 10: by numbers that nobody's actually ever seen before. It's much 792 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 10: more than one hundred percent, and we've unleashed American energy 793 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 10: at levels that will soon be reported, but we think 794 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 10: we're gonna get it going very quickly. 795 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 5: We have incredible people on the energy front. I think 796 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 5: we have really great people on every front. I'll let 797 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 5: you know if they're not good, but I think they 798 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 5: really are. 799 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 10: And we're fighting every day to get the prices down. 800 00:44:56,080 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 10: The inflation is stopping slowly, but part of the reason 801 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 10: it iss stopping is because of high interest rates and 802 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,280 Speaker 10: other problems that we inherited. 803 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 5: But we have to get. 804 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 10: The prices down, not the inflation down, the prices of 805 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,919 Speaker 10: eggs and various other things. Eggs are a disaster. The 806 00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 10: Secretary of Agriculture is going to be showing you a 807 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,839 Speaker 10: chart that's actually mind boggling what's happened, how low they 808 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,480 Speaker 10: were with us, and how high they are now. But 809 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 10: I think we could do something about it, that Secretary, 810 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,319 Speaker 10: and I think you're going to do a fantastic job 811 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 10: in that position. One of the most important initiatives is 812 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 10: DOGE and we have cut billions and billions and billions 813 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 10: of dollars. 814 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 5: We're looking to get it maybe to a trillion dollars. 815 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 5: If we could do that, we're going to. 816 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 10: Start getting to be at a point where we can 817 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 10: think in terms of balancing budgets. Believe it or not, 818 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 10: something you haven't heard in many, many years, decades actually, 819 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 10: and it's a big Whether it's this year or next year, 820 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 10: I think we'll be very close to balancing budgets. And 821 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 10: the Doge is very important and is here to give 822 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 10: you a summary of what's happening. Some of the things 823 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 10: they found, some of the horrible things they've found, some 824 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:11,760 Speaker 10: of the theft and fraud and we call it waste 825 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 10: and abuse, but a lot of fraud and probably some 826 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 10: fraud that. 827 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 5: We're not going to be able to prove this fraud. 828 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 10: But when you hear the names and the places where 829 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 10: this money's going, it's a disgrace. But we've requested that 830 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 10: a lot of people. We want to make sure that 831 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 10: the people are working. So letters were sent out and 832 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:34,719 Speaker 10: I think everyone at this table is very much behind it. 833 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 10: And if they are, and I don't want them to 834 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 10: speak up, but they're very much behind it. Letters were 835 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 10: sent out to people just to find out if the 836 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 10: people exist, do they work, who do they work for? 837 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,800 Speaker 10: Where are they you know, where have they been working, 838 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:50,720 Speaker 10: have they've been working for other companies or other entities 839 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 10: at all being paid by the government. 840 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 5: So they have two jobs, but they're supposed to have one. 841 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 10: And the letter asks some simple questions like what have 842 00:46:59,440 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 10: you done? 843 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 5: And they can answer that because I can. I can 844 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 5: tell you everything. 845 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 10: I've done for the last long period of time, a 846 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 10: lot more than a week. And in many cases we 847 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 10: haven't gotten responses. Usually that means that maybe that person 848 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 10: doesn't exist, or that person doesn't want to say they're 849 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 10: working for another company while being paid by the United 850 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 10: States government. So there's a lot of interesting things, very unique. 851 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,400 Speaker 10: But we have a very unique situation because we have 852 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 10: a lot of people that were scamming our country. We 853 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 10: have a lot of dishonest people, we have a lot 854 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:36,720 Speaker 10: of people that took advantage of a lot of different situations, 855 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 10: and we're not going to let that happen. So I'm 856 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 10: going to ask if it's possible to have Elon get 857 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,759 Speaker 10: up first and talk about DOGE because it seems to 858 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 10: be a great interest everyone. I will say that there 859 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:52,480 Speaker 10: is a large group of people in this country. 860 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,439 Speaker 5: That have such admiration for what we're doing. 861 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:59,280 Speaker 10: I got elected with a tremendous vote, winning every swing state, 862 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 10: winning the power popular vote, winning the counties by thousands 863 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 10: of counties. I think it was two eight hundred to 864 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 10: five hundred, two eight hundred counties to five hundred counties. 865 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 5: Think of that. 866 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 10: And so we have a mandate to do this, and 867 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 10: this is part of the reason I got elected. I 868 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 10: got elected based on taxes and based on many things 869 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 10: in the border, but also based on balancing budgets and 870 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 10: getting our country back into shape. And this is a 871 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 10: big part of it. So Elon, if you could get 872 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,840 Speaker 10: up and explain where you are, how you're doing, and 873 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 10: how much we're cutting. And it's an honor to have you. 874 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 10: He's been a tremendously successful guy, is really working so 875 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 10: hard and he's got businesses to run. 876 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 5: And in many ways they say how do you do this? 877 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 10: And you know it's he's sacrificing a lot and take 878 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,200 Speaker 10: getting a lot of praise, I'll tell you, but he's 879 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 10: also getting hit and we would expect that, and that's 880 00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 10: the way it works. So I'd like to have Elon 881 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,880 Speaker 10: Musk please say a few thank you really much. 882 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 11: Thank you, miss present. 883 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 13: Well. I actually just put myself a Hubble tech support 884 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 13: here because. 885 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:12,320 Speaker 11: This is actually as crazy as it sounds. 886 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 13: That is almost a literal description of the work that 887 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 13: the Dose Team is doing is helping picks the government 888 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 13: computer systems spending. These systems are extremely old, they don't 889 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 13: communicate their amount of mistakes, and the systems the software 890 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 13: doesn't work, so we are actually textabal It's it's ironic, 891 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 13: but it's true. The overall goal here with the Dose 892 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:41,240 Speaker 13: team is to help address the almost episode. We simply 893 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:46,240 Speaker 13: cannot sustain the country two trillion dollar deficits the interest 894 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,799 Speaker 13: rates that just the interest on the national debt now 895 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:53,600 Speaker 13: exceeds the Defense department spending. We spend a lot on 896 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 13: the Defense department, but we're spending like an over trillion. 897 00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 11: Dollars on interest. 898 00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 13: If this continues, the country will go would become de 899 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 13: facto bankrupt. 900 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 11: It's it's not an optional thing. It is a central 901 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 11: thing that that's that's the reason. 902 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 13: I'm here and taking a lot of plaque and getting 903 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 13: a lot of death threats, by the way, and I'd 904 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 13: like to speck them up, you know. 905 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:18,000 Speaker 11: But if we don't do this, America will go bankrupt. 906 00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 11: That's why it has to be done. And I'm confident 907 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 11: at this point. 908 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,680 Speaker 8: Knock on wood, you know, knock on my wouldn't head 909 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 8: it's going to a lot of wouter, but that we 910 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 8: can actually find con trillion dollars in savings. 911 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,439 Speaker 13: That would be a roughly fifteen percent of the seven 912 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 13: trillion dollar budget. 913 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 11: And obviously that can only be done with the support 914 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 11: of everyone in this room.
