The student, an Iranian national, was identified 19 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: by the Crimson White Now that's the university's student newspaper, 20 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: who has a student visa, was detained this week and 21 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: it's not clear what, if any charges he is facing. 22 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: The Hill reached out to the Department of Home in 23 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: security for comment. Most of the foreign students, by the way, 24 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: the Trump administration's target, have been involved in pro palace 25 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 1: and in protests. In some way, the administration is seeking 26 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: to make use of a law. They say the Secretary 27 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: of State can deport a non citizen who threatens the 28 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:41,279 Speaker 1: foreign policy of the nation Against these individuals, Now, don't worry. 29 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: The lefties at the University of Alabama and the College 30 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: Democrats put out a statement saying, quote, our fears have 31 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: come to pass. Donald Trump and Tom Homan and Ice 32 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: have struck a cold, vicious dagger through the hearts of 33 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: au international community. Students at several high profile universities across 34 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: the country have also been detained amid the Trump administration's crackdown. 35 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: Another example of that is what we're now hearing from 36 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: the Associated Press that a Turkish student at Tufts University 37 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: has been arrested. Now the Turkish student was detained by 38 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: federal officers as she walked along a street in Boston suburb. 39 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: It's the latest supporter of a Palestinian Causes group that 40 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: have been swept up in the Trump administration's crackdown on 41 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: immigrants who have expressed their political views that's how the 42 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: AP is reporting it. In reality, that's not actually what 43 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: they're doing. The Trump administration is cracking down on immigrants 44 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: who have student visas who are actually threatening and going 45 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: after others in the US. The thirty year old, a 46 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: doctoral student at Tufts University, was swiftly moved out of Massachusetts, 47 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: a demonstration of how US Immigration and Customs enforcement is 48 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: sending immigrants who are taken into cussy to detention centers, 49 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: are deporting them all together before a federal judge has 50 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: a chance to weigh in on their case and possibly 51 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: halt the actions. That is how the AP is sounding 52 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: the alarm. The woman who was attained Tuesday, shortly after 53 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: she left her home in Somerville had been moved to 54 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: a nice detention center in Louisiana by the time her 55 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: lawyer went to court and a judge ordered her to 56 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: be kept in Massachusetts. US government lawyers said in a 57 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: court document Thursday. 58 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: They said they made her lawyers aware that she. 59 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: Was being moved and facilitated contact with her Wednesday night. 60 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: A senior Department of Home in Security spokesman said federal 61 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: authorities detained the woman after an investigation found that she 62 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: had quote engaged in activities in support of hamas, a 63 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: foreign terrorist organization that relishes the killing of Americans. The 64 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: Department did not provide evidence of that support, of course, 65 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: as how again, the AP is trying to make it 66 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: look like Donald Trump did something wrong. Look at the 67 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: facts here. When the Department of Home in Security in 68 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: this case tells you what happened, they say they are 69 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: deporting a woman that is engaged in activities in support 70 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: of a terrorist organization that relishes the killing of Americans. 71 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: Hummas that right, there should be enough to say, Okay, 72 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: this is a good decision for America. It's a good 73 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: decision for the safety of students on college campuses. And 74 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: why on earth would you want someone like this in 75 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: America as our guests. The Secretary of State, by the way, 76 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: Marco Rubio said, the Trump administration is revoked the visas 77 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: of at least three hundred people, including this woman. We 78 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: do it every day, quote unquote. We gave you a 79 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: visa to come and study and get a degree, not 80 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: to become a social activist to tear up our university campuses, 81 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: Rubio said to reporters during a stop in Ghana. So 82 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: marrow the story is this. If you think Donald Trump 83 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 1: and the State Department, or Tom Homan or Marco Ruby 84 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: are going to stop deporting student center clearly hating America 85 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: or supporting terrorist organizations, so well, you're wrong because they're 86 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: doing it quote every day. While we may have won 87 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: this election, the fight to restore our great nation is 88 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: only beginning, and now is the time to take a stand, 89 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: and Patriot Mobile is leading the charge. It has never 90 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: been easier to switch your cell phone than in twenty 91 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: twenty five. With technology, you can do it literally over 92 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: the phone with a code they send you. It is amazing. 93 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: But here's the reason why I use Patriot Mobile. 94 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 3: No. 95 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: One, I save money over what I was paying before 96 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: with Big Mobile. And two, I'm no longer supporting the 97 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: radical left now. I didn't realize until someone told me 98 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: just how radical Big Mobile had gotten. Where they are 99 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: supporting organizations that pay for abortions or supporting radical democratic 100 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: causes and organizations they're helping democrats get elect it at 101 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: the local, state and national level. That is actually why 102 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: over a decade ago Patriot Mobile was started and they 103 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: are now america only Christian conservative wireless provider. Now let's 104 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: talk about coverage. In twenty twenty five, you have zero 105 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 1: problems with coverage anymore because well, Patriot Mobile uses all 106 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: three major networks. 107 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 2: What does that mean for you? 108 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 1: It means whatever coverage you're used to now, you're going 109 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: to stay exactly the same, or you may even be 110 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,679 Speaker 1: able to improve it, but it will not be any 111 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: issues when it comes to coverage. In fact, they have 112 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: a coverage guarantee. But when you pay your bill, this 113 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: is where the magic happens. They take a portion of 114 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: your bill every month and they give it back to 115 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: organizations that support our first and our second amendments that 116 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: support the sanctity of life, that support our veterans, our 117 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,119 Speaker 1: first responders, and are wounded warriors. And like I said, 118 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: switching with technology now has never been easier. You keep 119 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: your same phone you have now, keep your same phone number, 120 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: and you can even upgrade to a new phone if 121 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: you want to.

Now, 156 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: Raskin is demanding the Trump administration handover details regarding the 157 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: deportation flights to El Salvador, even as the Attorney General 158 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: Pambondis has said such details are protected under the state 159 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: secret privileges. 160 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,479 Speaker 2: According to Raskin, the illegal. 161 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: Aliens should have been allowed to defend themselves against the 162 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 1: Immigration and Customs enforcement assertion that they were gang members. 163 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 2: You can't make this up. 164 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: He then said, I write to demand answers about the 165 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 1: administration's jews of the Alien Enemies Act to forcibly remove 166 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: non citizens from the interior of the United States to 167 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: the dangerous prison in Ol Salvador.

He goes on 175 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: to write, the idea that the president of the United 176 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: States can merely declare that the US is being invaded 177 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: not by a foreign country but by a criminal gang, 178 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: and then ship people off to yet another country to 179 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: hand them over to a foreign. 180 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 2: Dictator is shocking, quote unquote. 181 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: Moreover, the Democrat wrote, it is terrifying to think that 182 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: these people being held indefinitely in an authoritarian megaprison, were 183 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: sent there without any opportunity in America to appear, to 184 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 1: appear before a judge hear the evidence against them established 185 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: that theirs is a case of mistaken identity, or challenge 186 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: these substant of claims against them. So let's just take 187 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: a moment and reflect, the Democrats and the Republicans, we 188 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: are not the same. The Democratic Party now has decided 189 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: that the best way for them to recruit voters is 190 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 1: to stand up for the hardcore criminals in two gangs 191 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: that are so vicious that they've been declared terrorists organizations. 192 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: That's number one. 193 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 1: Number two, they are defending these individuals that have killed 194 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 1: countless Americans and that have raped children in America and 195 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: have sold the drugs that have killed countless Americans. Again, 196 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: let that sink in. So if you want to know 197 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: which side they're on, they're sure as hell not on 198 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: the side of Americans. They're on the side of the 199 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: actual terrorist organizations that are the most vicious gangs. 200 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 2: In all the world. 201 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: All right, I want to move now to another big 202 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: story that the media is absolutely lying to the American 203 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: people about. The story headline looks like it could be 204 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: a scandal. The White House is withdrawing representative Sephonics nomination 205 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: as the UN ambassador. Naturally, people think, oh my gosh, 206 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 1: what did you do wrong? 207 00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 2: What happened? Why is it? 208 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: But they have stopped this and what is the scandal 209 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 1: behind it? 210 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 2: Well, let me explain it to you very clearly. 211 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: There is no scandal at all if you actually understand 212 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 1: why they decide to pull her name for that nomination. 213 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 2: Now, let's go back in time and I'm going to 214 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 2: walk you through this. 215 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: In November of twenty twenty four, President Donald Trump nominated 216 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: Representative of Stefanic of New York to serve as the 217 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: United States Ambassador the UN. Now, if you actually know 218 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: what is going on, what I'm about to tell you 219 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: is actually not a big deal makes a lot of sense. 220 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: There is a reason why President Trump withdrew her nomination 221 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: on Thursday, emphasizing the critical need to maintain the Republican 222 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: Party's narrow majority in the House of Representatives, He stated, quote, 223 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: as we advanced our America First agenda, it is essential 224 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 1: that we maintain every Republican seat in Congress. Now at 225 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: the time, this is the numbers. Publicans are holding a 226 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: very slim majority to eighteen to two thirteen in the House. 227 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,239 Speaker 1: There are four vacant seats right now, and Stephanic's departure 228 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 1: to assume the UN ambassador role would have well necessitated 229 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: a's special election to filler congressional seat. 230 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 2: Here's the problem. 231 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: This is not a seat that is in a place 232 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 1: that you would just guarantee that a. 233 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: Republican would win. 234 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: That could easily jeopardize the GOP's ability to pass Donald 235 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: Trump's key legislation. House Speaker Mike Johnson, by the way, 236 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: coming out supporting the decision, as well, highlighting Sephank's vital 237 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: role in advancing the party's legislative priorities. Now, Sephonic, who 238 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: represented New York's twenty first districts in twenty fifteen, had 239 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: previously stepped down from her position as chair of the 240 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: House Republican Conference in anticipation of her ambassadorial appointment. Her 241 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: continued presence in Congress is seen as crucial for maintaining 242 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: part unity and ensuring the passage of significant initiatives on 243 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: the Republican agenda. So let's just step back and let 244 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: you totally understand this. There is nothing here except for 245 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: Republicans making the right decision. Let me also be clear 246 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 1: that I think that if Republicans gain in the House 247 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: in the midterms, there's a very good chance that Representative 248 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: Elise to Phonic could then go back and get a 249 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: major job in this administration. She would have been perfect 250 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: to be the US Ambassador United Nations. But it doesn't 251 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: matter as much if you lose control of the House 252 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: and it stalls Donald Trump's agenda of putting America First. 253 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: We must be unified to accomplish our mission and Elistephonic 254 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: has been a vital part of our efforts from the 255 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: very beginning. Trump also wrote, I've asked eleast as one 256 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: of my biggest allies to remain in Congress quote unquote 257 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, making it clear that he is a huge 258 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: fan of her work and is basically saying, I know 259 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: you'd be great at this other job, but right now 260 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: I need you in Congress. So there's no doubt that 261 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: we get the America First Agenda passed. 262 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: So now let's talk about the agenda items. 263 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: For example that if Stephanic left, would be in major 264 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: jeopardy of never happening. A perfect example of that is 265 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: the real chance of defunding MPR in PBS. Now I 266 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: played for you yesterday some of the moments in that 267 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: debate over doge and government waste and spending at these 268 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: two organizations. Now, President Trump has called on Congress officially 269 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: to stop giving taxpayer money to National Public Radio INPR 270 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: and the Public Broadcasting Service PBS, saying it this way, 271 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: quote MPR and PBS, two horrible and completely biased platforms. 272 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: Networks should be defunded by Congress immediately. Republicans don't miss 273 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: this opportunity to rint our country of this giant scam, 274 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: both being. 275 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 2: Arms of the radical left Democratic Party. 276 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: Then he wrote in all caps, just say no and 277 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: make America great again, Trump posting that on True Social 278 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: Trump also asked the Federal Communications Commission Chair Brennan Carr 279 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: to open an investigation to determine if MPR PBS violated federal. 280 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: Law by airing commercials. 281 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: The heads of the two media outlets on Wednesday faced 282 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: intense questioning for Republican members of Congress over the alleged 283 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: liberal bias and their reporting and content. Where the big 284 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: moments was when Representative Margory Taylor Green scolded the executives, saying, quote, 285 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: MPR and PBS have increasingly become radical left wing echo 286 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: chambers for a narrow audience of mostly wealthy, white urban 287 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: liberals and progressives who generally look down and judge rural America. Also, 288 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: as you know it is flyover country. Green added, we 289 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: believe that you all can hate us on your own dime. 290 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: Senator John Kennedy, a Republican from Louisiana, said this month 291 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: is a month to act, and he introduced legislation to 292 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 1: in federal funding for NPR and PBS, about one percent 293 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: of MPR is federally funded, according to the outlet, while 294 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: about sixteen percent of PBS comes directly from tax dollars. Now, 295 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: you may say, what's one percent of a budget, Well, 296 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 1: it equates to about five hundred million of your tax 297 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: dollars each and every year going to PBS and NPR. Now, Republicans, 298 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: and I'm one of them, that have threatened for a 299 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: long time, are said we should strip funding for MPR 300 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: and PBS. But the problem is in Congress we've had 301 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 1: quite a few well squishy Republicans that have never actually 302 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: done it. Nearly twice as many Americans support the continued 303 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: federal funding of public media outlets as opposed it that, 304 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: according to a survey release Wednesday by the Research Center. 305 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 2: Here's the issue. 306 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: Though many times Americans have no clue what their money 307 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 1: is going for. They just think Sesame Street's good, and 308 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: MPR is good, our PBS is good. So why would 309 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: we want to stop funding it? Well, if you explain 310 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: to the American people exactly what they're doing with those dollars, 311 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: and that's what they're doing on Capitol Hill, it'll be 312 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: very interesting to see how quickly these polls can change. Well, 313 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: not a majority by the way, but forty three percent 314 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: of those surveyed said the federal government should continue to 315 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 1: fund MPR and PBS at present levels. Twenty four percent 316 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: said the government should stop funding the outlets, and thirty 317 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: three percent of Americans said they weren't sure what to do, 318 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 1: meaning that there needs to be more information given the 319 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: American people about just how biased and corrupt these two 320 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: organizations are. Now, if you break it down by party, 321 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: and this is some very interesting polling, thirty two percent 322 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: of Democrats said they regularly get their news from MPR, 323 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: Only nine percent of Republicans said the same thing. Thirty 324 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: one percent of Democrats, by the way, and only eleven 325 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 1: percent of Republicans say. 326 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 2: They regularly watch PBS. 327 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: There's also a nostalgia aspect of these two organizations. Many 328 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,959 Speaker 1: think that if you defund them then they're going to disappear. 329 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: That's also not true, which goes back to what Margley 330 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: Taylor Green said, If you want to hate us and 331 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: our values, you can do it on your own dime. 332 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: There is no doubt that NPR and PBS can make 333 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: money and they do not need our tax dours to 334 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: subsidize them. Yes, they may actually have to run it 335 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: like a real company where they cut bloat and waste 336 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 1: and fraud and abuse, and you know, just actually lay 337 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: some people off and streamline their operations. But they can 338 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 1: survive on their own, which is another reason why there 339 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 1: is no logical reason why our tax dollars should be 340 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: going to these radical news organizations. There's another reason why 341 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: Democrats are angry over this because they've had two major 342 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: networks in essence, just as Donald Trump said, that have 343 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: been running their propaganda for decades. And yes, NPR and 344 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: PBS do in fact have large audiences. 345 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 2: One of them has a very large audience. 346 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: Of children, your children or your grandchildren, and many of 347 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: their programs that they now have for those kids are 348 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:23,719 Speaker 1: about pushing radical and alternative lifestyles. They have spent millions 349 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: of dollars pushing LGBTQ on kids and your grandkids programming. 350 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:34,239 Speaker 1: They've even had drag queens put into cartoon characters. And 351 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: that is the problem with MPR and PBS, and that's 352 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: exactly why it's time that we advocate for stopping this funding. 353 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 2: Now, this is where you, as a voter comes in. 354 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 1: You got to start calling your congressman and your senators. 355 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: And tell them that you're in favor of this. 356 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: One of the reasons why many times Republicans get squishy 357 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: on these issues is they're afraid that they're in the minority. 358 00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: I think once the American people know where their money's going, 359 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: there's no doubt this. 360 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 2: Is something we can win on. 361 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 1: And just be honest about who you are. Hey, no 362 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 1: Republicans allowed. We got eighty seven editoral people that are 363 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: Democrats as a democratic communist organization. Come on it, and 364 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: if you're gonna be that, then be intellectually honest about it. 365 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: But don't take my damn tax dollars to push your 366 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: state sponsored media. I want to go back to what 367 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: we were talking about earlier with NPR. So if you 368 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: thought that MPR was gonna get away and PBS was 369 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: gonna get away with wasting your government dollars, things did 370 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: not go well. Later in the questioning for the NPR president, 371 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: Representative Brandon Gill asking a very simple question and then 372 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: the lie from the MPR CEO. 373 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 4: Listen, it's interesting because a lot of your thinking, as 374 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 4: expressed by your public statements, is deeply infused with economic 375 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 4: and cultural Marxism. Do you believe that a mayor is 376 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 4: addicted to white supremacy. 377 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 5: I believe that I tweeted that, and as I've said earlier, 378 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 5: I believe much of my thinking has evolved over the 379 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 5: last half decade. 380 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 3: It has evolved. Why did you tweet that? 381 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 5: I don't recall the exact context, sir, so I wouldn't 382 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 5: be able to say. 383 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 4: Okay, do you believe that America believes in black plunder 384 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 4: and white democracy? 385 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 5: I don't believe that, sir. 386 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 3: You tweet it. 387 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 4: It's reference to a book you were reading at the time, 388 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 4: apparently The Case for Reparations. 389 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 5: I don't think I've ever read that book, Sir. 390 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 3: You tweeted about it. 391 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 4: You said you took a day off to fully read 392 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 4: The Case for Reparations. 393 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 3: You put that on Twitter in January of twenty twenty. 394 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 5: I apologies. I don't recall that I did. Okay, no 395 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 5: doubt that your tweet there is correct, but I don't recall. 396 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 4: Okay, do you believe that white people inherently feel superior 397 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 4: to other races? 398 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 5: I do not. 399 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 4: You tweeted something to that effect. You said I grew 400 00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,360 Speaker 4: up feeling superior. 401 00:22:59,400 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 5: Ha. 402 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 3: How why did you tweet that? 403 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 5: I think I was probably reflecting on what it was 404 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 5: to be to grow up in an environment where I 405 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 5: had lots of advantages. 406 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 3: It sounds like you're saying that white people feel superior. 407 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 5: I don't believe that anybody feels that way, sir. I 408 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 5: was just reflecting on my own experience. 409 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 3: Do you think the white people should pay reparations? 410 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 5: I have never said that, sir. 411 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 3: Yes you did. You said it in January of twenty twenty. 412 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 4: You tweeted, yes, the North, yes, all of us, Yes, America, Yes, 413 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 4: our original collective sin and unpaid debt. 414 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 3: Yes, reparations, yes on this day. 415 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 5: I don't believe that was a reference to fiscal reparations, sir. 416 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 3: What kind of reparations was it a reference to. 417 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 5: I think it was just a reference to the idea 418 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 5: that we all owe much to the people who came 419 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 5: before us. 420 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 4: That's a bizarre way to frame what you tweeted. Okay, 421 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 4: many how much reparations have you personally paid? 422 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 5: Sir? I don't believe that I've ever paid reparations? 423 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 4: Okay, just for everybody else, asking anyone who's to be 424 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 4: what you're suggesting. 425 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 3: Do you believe that looting is morally wrong? 426 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 5: I believe that looting is illegal, and I refer to 427 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 5: it as counterproductive. I think it should be prosecuted. 428 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 3: Do you believe it's morally wrong though? 429 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 5: Of course? 430 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 4: Of course, then why did you refer to it as counterproductive? 431 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 4: Very different, very different way to describe it. 432 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 5: It is both morally wrong and counterproductive, as well as. 433 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 3: Being be tweeted. It's hard to be mad about protests. 434 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 4: In reference to the BLM protests not prioritizing the private 435 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 4: property of a system of oppression. You didn't condemn the looting, 436 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 4: you said that it was counter productive. NPR also promoted 437 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 4: a book called in Defensive Looting. 438 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 3: Do you think that that's an appropriate use of taxpayer dollars? 439 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 5: I'm unfamiliar with that book, sir, and I don't believe 440 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 5: that was. 441 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 3: A tweeted that you read that book. 442 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 5: But I don't believe that I did read that book, sir. 443 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 4: Do you think that a few years ago INPR educated 444 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 4: America about quote the whole community of gender queer dinosaur enthusiast. 445 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 4: Do you think that that's inappropriate use of tax dollars? 446 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 5: I was not an MPR at the time. 447 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 4: That's not the question, though. Do you think that that's 448 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 4: an appropriate use of our tax dollars? 449 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,239 Speaker 5: I think our tax dollars that we use are to 450 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 5: be able to provide a wide range and take. 451 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 3: I'll take that as a yes, you do believe that 452 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 3: that's appropriate. 453 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 4: Your health advisor at NPR also stated in an interview 454 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 4: that quote, fear of fatness is more harmful than actual fat. 455 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 4: Would you like to explain how fear of fatness is 456 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 4: more harmful than actual fat? That's directly that's an editorial NPR. 457 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 5: I am not familiar with the editorial, and I don't 458 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 5: believe that was published during my time here. 459 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 4: It's called diet culture is everywhere. Here's how to fight it. 460 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 4: Do you think that that's an appropriate use of taxpayer dollars? 461 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 5: I think any reporting on health is an appropriate use. 462 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 4: You spent dollars, Yes, And you think that editorializing that 463 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 4: fat is not unhealthy is appropriate? 464 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 5: I don't know that what that article is, sir, and 465 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 5: I'm not familiar with it. 466 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 3: With student said fake news. 467 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 4: Do you think that basic accommodations like doorways or seat 468 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 4: belts represent quote latent fat phobia? 469 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 5: I don't have an opinion. 470 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 4: It's also from NPR. Do you think cibility is racist? No, sir, No, 471 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 4: Your outlet ran an article entitled quote when civility is 472 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 4: used as a cudgel against people of color? 473 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 3: That was on All Things considered. 474 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 5: Would you like to explain, Well, I'm not on the 475 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 5: editorial side. Sorry, I'm not familiar with that story. 476 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 4: You talk about how NPR is news. This is editorialization, 477 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 4: and I'll read it. For many people of color in 478 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 4: the United States, civility isn't so much social lubricant as 479 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 4: it is a vehicle for containing them, preventing social mobility, 480 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 4: and preserving the status. 481 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 3: Quote. This is garbage. 482 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 4: I'll spend all of my time doing everything I can do, 483 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 4: and sure you guys never get another dollar of taxpayer funding. 484 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 3: This is complete garbage. Thank you, madam chair. 485 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: Now you listen to this NPR CEO. She makes a 486 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: lot of money. It's subsidized by your tax hours.

I hope you share the 507 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: show so other people can hear it. They don't know 508 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: that this is what the CEO of MPR is actually doing. 509 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:10,400 Speaker 1: They have no idea that this is happening, right, no 510 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: clue at all that this is actually going down. And 511 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: part of this is just saying, you want to know 512 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: who's running these organizations. Listen to their own words, listen 513 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 1: to their tweets, listen to what they say. Now, want 514 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: to move to two other things real quick that are 515 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: also a big deal. 516 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 2: This is coming out of Washington. 517 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: DC officials are now detailing the arrests of a top 518 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: MS thirteen gang leader that is running this gang and 519 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: their operations throughout the United States of America.

And Trump gave us the executive 526 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 6: decision to go after and safeguard our communities. General Bondi 527 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 6: is our worry of justice leading that charge. Governor Youngkin, 528 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 6: It's an honor to be a partner in this operation 529 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 6: with you and. 530 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 3: US Attorney Seabird. 531 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 6: This is the mandate we have right now. We have 532 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 6: an American dying every seven minutes from a drug overdose. 533 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 6: That is a national security crisis we have not seen 534 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 6: ever before. 535 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 3: We have a woman or child. 536 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 6: Being raped every six and a half minutes in this country. 537 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 6: We have a homicide twice an hour.

But thanks 539 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 6: to the brave leadership of this administration and the folks 540 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 6: that you see here, we are returning our communities to safety. 541 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 6: As you heard, we took down this morning a top 542 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 6: leader of MS thirteen. That is not done easily, that 543 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 6: is done with brilliant law enforcement. And right here, I'm proud, 544 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 6: and I think the governor knows I'm biased, having graduated 545 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 6: from the University of Richmond to have this here in 546 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 6: the state of Virginia.

Sort of at a 604 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 8: high level, you should think of this as we are. 605 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 8: We want to reduce the spending by eliminating waste and 606 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 8: forward reduce the spending by fifteen percent, which. 607 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 3: Seems really quite achievable. 608 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 8: The government is not efficient and there's a lot of 609 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 8: waste forward, so we feel confident that fifteen percent reduction 610 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 8: can be done without affecting any of the critical government services. 611 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: Yet again, another victory for Donald Trump.
