That's gonna be 25 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: our top story today. Chucky Schumer promising of filibuster. What 26 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: a shock the I can tell you right now the 27 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: nuclear option will be used because there is there, then 28 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: it must be used. Because the Republicans are, you know, 29 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: in good faith they say yes to Ruth Bader Ginsburg. 30 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: They know she's a left wing radical activist that doesn't 31 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: believe in and separation of powers, coequal branches of government. 32 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: She's a judicial activist, believes in legislating from the bench. 33 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: Same with Sonya sotomayor, same with Elena Kagan s name 34 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: with all of them on the left. It's now a 35 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: four or four vote. So if the Republicans are not 36 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: going to get the reciprocity that they give the Democrats, 37 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: what's the point any longer it's a assad they're playing 38 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: by a different set of rules. There's no intelligent reason 39 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: at all to app pose Neil Gorsuch. All right, we'll 40 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: get to that as the program unfolds today. Also, we 41 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: have more on this blockbuster revelation by Devin noun Yez. 42 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: What's fascinating about it is the left's reaction. They can't 43 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: handle it. They're angry because and the media the same thing, 44 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: because they've all been wrong for the longest time. And 45 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 1: once again Donald Trump turns out to be right. Okay, 46 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: he said, why are tapping? He didn't say surveillance. Okay, 47 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: you got him. Is why are tapping? Surveillance? Is surveillance? 48 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: The surveillance include other issues, Yeah, it does. And if 49 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: you're looking at the Trump server and you have our 50 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: government recording phone conversations of the president elect and his 51 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 1: transition team and others, and whether or not it's done 52 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: for legitimate reasons, I don't know. It should bother every 53 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: American that believes in the right of privacy, that believes 54 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: that the government should not be involved in unreasonable search 55 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: and seizure, that believes in warrants being obtained before such 56 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: before such listening monitoring happens. Now if it does happen, 57 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 1: as a matter of course, for the intelligence community, well, 58 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: we do have protections known as minimization. We do have protections. 59 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: You're not supposed to identify the person that is the 60 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: American that you don't have the right to surveil, and 61 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: you're certainly not allowed to leak the information. All right, 62 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: So we'll get to all of that today. We've identified 63 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: the London attacker. You know what's said about this whole thing, 64 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: so here it is all yesterday, all over the news. 65 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: It's basically nowhere today. Lynda and I were talking about this. 66 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: We have been you know, this has become a new 67 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: normal that we ought not be accepting. You know, the 68 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: first Muslim mayor of London ought not have stated this 69 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: is the new normal, and that if you live in 70 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: a big city, you're gonna have to expect things like 71 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: this to happen. It doesn't have to be that way. 72 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: And we have real, real hard soul searching to do 73 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,839 Speaker 1: in this country about whether or not we're gonna learn 74 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: the mistakes of France and Great Britain and Germany and 75 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: Belgium and all of Europe, the Islamization of Europe, and 76 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: whether or not vetting refugees is at least a minor 77 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: defense against inviting those with radical extremist views into the country, 78 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: which is a privilege and it's not a right. I 79 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: might want to inform some of these judges on the 80 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. You might want to inform 81 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: some of these judges when they go out judge shopping. Anyway, 82 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: we'll get to all of this from in the course 83 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: of the program today. I want to start with where 84 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: we are with the healthcare built. So we're less than 85 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 1: what about three hours and fifty minutes away from a 86 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: scheduled vote tonight, and as of right now, I can 87 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 1: tell you where we are. We don't have the votes. 88 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: The President that Republicans do not have the votes to 89 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: pass this bill, and it probably if I had to guess, 90 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: probably in light of recent developments that I'll explain to you, 91 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: probably you're gonna get the vote to move forward. Now, 92 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 1: one of the problems is, at the end of the day, 93 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: what is healthcare gonna look like in America? Well, this 94 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: bill is not going to tell you that. This bill. 95 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: You know, there there's all sorts of some real and 96 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: some imagined problems when you need fifty one votes in 97 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: the Senate reconciliation, the issue of cloture, the issue of 98 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: you know, all of the bird rule, the issue of 99 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,559 Speaker 1: all of these things, which I'll get to in a second. 100 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: That's all process and legitimate obstacles to any bill that 101 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna have, and the Health and Human Services Secretary 102 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: hopefully can explain all of us to us as we speak. 103 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: I can tell you I know the following is true, 104 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: that the Freedom Caucus is meeting alone together and they're 105 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: making a decision probably right now. They have spoken to 106 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 1: the President numerous times today. The President has said to 107 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: them that again this now has come out of the 108 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: Rules Committee. The bill at this point is not going 109 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: to change. There's no amendment to the rule that's gonna 110 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: be added to the bill that's gonna be added at 111 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: this late hour. I'm giving you all my insight sources. 112 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: I've been working the phones all day here today, and 113 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: I talked to many people in the White House, talked 114 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: to many people in the Freedom Caucus exactly what are 115 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 1: the obstacles, where are we what's happening? When could this 116 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: When will we know if this is gonna get done? 117 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: But as of right now, and it's you know, three 118 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 1: hours and forty eight minutes away from a scheduled vote, 119 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: they don't have the votes to pass the bill that 120 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 1: I know for a fact at this very minute the 121 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: Freedom Caucuses uniting and and they're now trying to make 122 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: a decision. What they have asked for is an ironclad 123 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: promise from the President that the things that they have 124 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: been requesting and have been shut out of the process 125 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: from the beginning about that the President says will happen 126 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: in the final version of the bill. Because remember this, this, 127 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: as Tom Price said, this is a three phase process 128 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: for the bill. That's why I can't sit here and 129 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: anyone that says they can sit here on air and 130 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: tell you everything that's ultimately going to be in this bill. 131 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: It's just that's not how sausage is made or legislation happens. 132 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: And Tom Price said that full repeal of Obamacare will happen, 133 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: meaning the actual repeal of the parts that matter and 134 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: put vulnerable people at risk. And he said, what that 135 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: does is place, you know, at the end of the day, 136 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: free markets of the answer to the whole problem to 137 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: begin with. But let me let me, let me start 138 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: backwards and work from there. Before they ever let this 139 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: bill out, this is where they problem began, before they 140 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: ever rolled out this bill. They never consulted with some 141 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: of the best, brightest. And I'm talking about Congress because 142 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: you know, for eight long years we've heard repeal ever inplace, 143 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: repeal or inplace, repeal and replace. One of my biggest 144 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: criticisms is, yeah, they voted to repeal Obamacare fifty times. 145 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: Even President Obama started making fun of it because they 146 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: wanted to go home to their districts and they wanted 147 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: to be able to say they voted for repeal. I'm 148 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: I'm being very real here now. They were not votes 149 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: to really repeal it. They were show votes. They were 150 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: votes to be able to go home to their districts 151 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: and say they voted to repeal Obamacare. And they did, 152 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: in fact they did, but it had no meaning because 153 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: it never was going anywhere. Now, one of the reasons 154 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: Ted Cruz and when he went to filibuster Ted Cruz 155 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: was trying to get Congress to use their enumerated power 156 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: of the purse to stop funding Obamacare as a means 157 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: of actually putting some teeth into what it is that 158 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: they're promising. And then of course he was ostracized, and 159 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,319 Speaker 1: there were predictions that, well, the Republicans will lose the 160 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: Senate and won't win the Senate inteen and none of 161 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: that came true as a banner year in and and 162 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: Ted Cruz rose to the point where he was probably 163 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 1: the most popular Senator in Washington, d C. For taking 164 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: that stand and being willing to use the power of 165 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: the purse. Now there's two different factions that are opposing 166 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: the bill. This is a real challenge for the president, 167 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: a real challenge for the speaker. You have moderates in 168 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: districts that Hillary Clinton won, but the Republican won a 169 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 1: House seat. It's about twenty some odd members in that category. 170 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: Then you have the Freedom Caucus, which has anywhere between 171 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: thirty one and forty votes strong, and they're pledging to unite, 172 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: to gather whichever way they end up coming out of 173 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: this meeting today, I have to assume that they're probably 174 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: going to be united. And the problem began at the 175 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: very beginning. And you know what, I don't really care 176 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: what the moderates have to say, because as far as 177 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm concerned, they're just thinking about themselves. They're thinking about 178 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: their re election. They just worried that Hillary won their district. Well, 179 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: what's more important the future of the country? Getting this 180 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: right or their reelection. I'm I'm really not sympathetic to 181 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: the idea that they need to get re elected or 182 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: anybody needs to get reelected, because their job is to 183 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: serve the American people. So, you know, I'm sure the 184 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: things that you can offer moderates, they're not organized like 185 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: the Freedom Caucus. You know, you could probably say, okay, 186 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: well we'll go campaign for you or will run ads 187 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: in your district. You know, the same type of garbage 188 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: insider horse trading that goes on every day. But the 189 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: more important issue here is whatever happens today and tonight, 190 00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: this can't happen anymore. They had eight long years and 191 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: they never consulted with Heritage Action. Heritage Action has been 192 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: against us when it was laid out, or the Cato 193 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: Institute that's where Patient Power was written, Musgrave and Goodman 194 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: that talked about health care savings accounts, which is a 195 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: part of this bill. But they were not consulted. Americans 196 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: for Prosperity were not consulted. Their approval was not given. 197 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: You know, same with the Club for Growth. They are 198 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: smart people at all these places. Freedom work. Same thing. 199 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: Then the Study Group, which is a more moderately conservative 200 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: group but full of good conservatives like Marsha Blackburn. They 201 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: had to be sold on the bill and certain promises. 202 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: I guess we're made to them now. I know for 203 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: a fact that Paul Ryan, up until just the last 204 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: forty eight hours, hadn't talked to the Freedom Caucus, the 205 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: conservative block that is the biggest threat to this bill 206 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: in over three weeks, and that to me is unforgivable. 207 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: They didn't consult them in the beginning. They didn't consult 208 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: them during the process. They were told that different points 209 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: is going to be a buyinary ticket or leave it old. 210 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: You don't get any input, you don't get to make amendments, 211 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: and they would treat it horribly, in my opinion, not 212 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: by the president, by the way. They'll tell you the 213 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: President has reached out again and again and again and 214 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: using every negotiating skill that he has to try and 215 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: get the try and get this done, you know, and 216 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: to to hear over and over again, we're gonna lose moderates. Well, 217 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 1: you're giving moderates too much power. That's not Donald Trump's base. 218 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: And by the way, they were left in the dark too. 219 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: Nobody knows knew what was in the bill until they 220 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: finally rolled it out, and everything they thought was in 221 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 1: there that they suspected, what it was in there that 222 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: they were gonna pose that was in there ended up 223 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: being in there. It's and what's so frustrating about it, 224 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: they had eight years to prepare for this moment. They 225 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: look like the gang that can't shoot straight. They look 226 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: at so pathetic to watch this, the intramural fighting that's 227 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: been going on TV. It looks like they're not prepared 228 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: to lead. They could have had a consent into bill, 229 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: they could have fought this out before the rollout. They 230 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 1: could have fixed this in a way that would have 231 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: It's never gonna be perfect. It's it's just not because 232 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: people have different agendas. And now they put the president 233 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: in the position he's got to do all the heavy 234 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: lifting and if the bill doesn't work out, he's gonna 235 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: own what they did, so that he's not in an 236 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: enviable position here. You know, now they're gonna move forward 237 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: with budget bills, tax reform bills. You know, if they 238 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: handle it the same way, they're just gonna double down 239 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: on stupid and they're gonna continue to look like the 240 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: gang that can't shoot straight, that is not prepared to 241 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: leave in any way, And I say, before any rollout, 242 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: maybe you can check in with these smart groups like Heritage, CATO, 243 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: a FP, and the Club for Growth. You know, maybe 244 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: you can talk to the Conservative Caucus. Maybe you can 245 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: talk to the Study Group. Maybe you could talk to 246 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,719 Speaker 1: innovative healthcare providers like Josh Umber doctor number of Atlas MD, 247 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: like we've been putting on the program. You know, maybe 248 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: you can talk to people that understand as reform and 249 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: the implications. If you drop the corporate rate to fifteen 250 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: sixteen sevent then you can have all these agreements in principle, 251 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 1: you work it out behind closed doors, and then you 252 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: roll it out as a team that's united and you 253 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: claim the wind. Now it's come down to a last minute. 254 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: I don't have a clue what's gonna happen. Now. You know, 255 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: you can put Senate and House members on the same page. 256 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: You can do all There's so many things that you 257 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: can do differently. Here. I've told you I'm holding these 258 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: guys accountable. That's what I'm doing. They've screwed it up. 259 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean it's not gonna work out the right way, 260 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: but it means they've screwed up the process and they 261 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: look stupid anyway. We'll get back to this in a minute. 262 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: It's our top story. We'll be following it all day. 263 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: The Health and Human Services Secretary Tom prices here. We 264 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: have Freedom Caucus members coming up. In the course of 265 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: the program. We are going to get into the devon 266 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: Nunia's revelations and uh. Also, prices are for base buildings 267 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: only include window stores are accessories. Warning, don't let your 268 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: business us get left behind in what is likely to 269 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: be the biggest economic boom in recent history. If you 270 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: need to build to grow your business, called General Steel today. 271 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: Steel prices are expected to rise, but you can still 272 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 1: lock in your price on a General Steel building if 273 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: you call now. For example, a forty by sixty ft 274 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: building is still less than twenty five thousand. Even in 275 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: eighty by one fifty foot building is under ninety nine thousand. 276 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: Imagine twelve thousand square feet for under ninety nine thousand. 277 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: This building is designed for your needs, no wasted space, 278 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: and you get the General's quality and fifty or structural 279 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: warranty at a price you can afford. You can still 280 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: save as much as half the cost and time of 281 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: conventional construction by calling General Steel today. As much as half. 282 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: So don't let rising steel prices put your project out 283 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: of reach and stop you from making your company great. 284 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: Call now eight seven seven eighty one steel. It's not 285 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: too late. Call eight seven seven eighty one steel. That's 286 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: eight seven seven eight one seven eighty three thirty five. 287 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: Now why am I going back to the process here? 288 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: Because you know something. There's a better way to govern, 289 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: There's a better way to serve your constituents than rolling 290 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: out a bill that nobody's seen, that you know is 291 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: going to be opposed that results in intramural squabbling all 292 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: over TV and radio at and having had eight years 293 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: to do it, it's almost so unforgivable to me, and 294 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: it's inexplicable. I can't justify or explain why anybody would 295 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: ever do anything in such a manner. Now, part of 296 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: me wants to rant and rave and be angry, but 297 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: that's not going to help anything. I'm trying to offer 298 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: practical solutions and a roadmap to success, with the gold 299 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: being that we have the best plan that best serves 300 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: the American people, which is why I keep putting on 301 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: dr umber Atlas m D fifty a month, unlimited care, 302 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,199 Speaker 1: Concierge care for every adult man and woman, and that 303 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: means everything reductions as it relates to X rays and 304 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: mr Rise and pharmaceuticals. He takes care of everything in 305 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: the office. Kids are ten bucks a month. They've duplicated 306 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: that nearly a thousand times around the country. It offers care. 307 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 1: You have twenty four hour service. You have a good 308 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: doctor who who also has created an incredible business model. 309 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: Any real solution the healthcare is going to be rooted 310 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: in the free market health care savings accounts. Particularly. Look, 311 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: I'm older now, but if I was twenty five thirty eighteen, 312 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: and I could start a healthcare savings account and put 313 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: tax deductible money in there all year, every every single 314 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: working year in my life, and build up get my 315 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: get my check up once a year, once every two years. 316 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: You know, it will pay for my call on oscarfy 317 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: if I need that. But then when I really need healthcare, 318 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: it's there for me. And then I can choose my doctor, 319 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: my hospital that I I prefer. And then you add 320 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: catastrophic care for bad accidents, cancer, heart attacks, anything, and 321 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: it's prohibitively expensive. You know what, It's the perfect solution. 322 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: It's free market and supply and demand Criss Corrosse equal 323 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: price insurance companies with the best plans at the lowest 324 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:23,199 Speaker 1: price will get your business simple. Alright, now till the 325 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: top of the hour, it looks like the healthcare vote 326 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: is not going to take place tonight. There was I've 327 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: been getting mixed messages all throughout the last this hour, 328 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: and I didn't want to bring it up until let's 329 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: see Jamie Dupree let's see, he was outside the Freedom 330 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: Caucus meeting. Hard to see a vote tonight, but anything 331 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: remains possible, he says. I think I actually agree with Jamie. 332 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: I don't. I think there's still a slight outside chance. 333 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: Although both Fox News and CNN are saying no vote 334 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 1: tonight on the healthcare bill. Mike Emmanuel just sent me 335 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: a note. The House currently stands in recess. Members are 336 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 1: advised that procedural votes are expect that in the House 337 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: this evening at roughly eight pm. Members of further advised 338 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: that votes are now expected tomorrow. Okay, so I'm guessing 339 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: that they're they're just pushing this off. Look, look, I 340 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,719 Speaker 1: want to make sure am I making this clear what 341 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Linda, because this is more complicated than I 342 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: think people understand. I want to be very clear what 343 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: I'm trying to explain to you here, because there's a 344 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: part of me that's really really angry because it didn't 345 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: have to look like this, and it didn't have to 346 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: be like this, you know. And by the way, I 347 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: don't I like the Freedom Caucus. I like I mean, 348 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 1: we've had these guys on for a reason because these 349 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: guys are the most conservative in the House, and these 350 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: guys are principal conservatives, and these guys have these guys 351 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: were left out of the process and so at the 352 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: last hour when they need their votes, because they're saying, well, 353 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 1: we need these things to be able to go back 354 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: to our homes and tell our constituents that we kept 355 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: our word and we we did what we said we're 356 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: gonna do. Well, they should have been consulted in the beginning, 357 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: so you know, And I I really don't care about 358 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: moderate Republicans that are in districts that Hillary Clinton won 359 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: because it sounds to me like they want to keep 360 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: Obamacare and Obamacare light is not the answer. Their districts 361 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: didn't vote for the president. That's not the people that 362 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: support the president here. So anyway, late last night just 363 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: to give you a timeline of what happened. And we 364 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: had Mark Meadows on the program last night. He had 365 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: had a private meeting with the President and he struck 366 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,479 Speaker 1: a deal in principle with the President. And then it 367 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 1: turns out that they had to walk back part of 368 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: the deal. And I'm told two different stories here. One 369 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: is because reconciliation that process got in the way of 370 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: what the deal was. And then I was told later 371 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 1: this afternoon, well they can because the Rules Committee couldn't 372 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: meet again. The Rules Committee work was done. And it 373 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: turns out, well, now if they have more time, the 374 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: Rules Committee him back in session and they can work 375 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: on the adjustments and the changes that is gonna make 376 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: this bill more free market, that keeps more that is 377 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: more in line with the promises that the President makes 378 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: and that the congressmen have made to their their constituents. 379 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: I don't really care about the time. If you can 380 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: get it done today, tomorrow, next week, next month, it 381 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 1: really doesn't matter as long as you get it done right, 382 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, getting it right 383 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: is what matters. Now, you know, I've got to explain 384 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: things to some of you. For example, a lot of 385 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 1: you don't know that. Obamacare was passed through a process 386 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: that is known as reconciliation. Now that was a process, 387 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: if you want the history of it. It was established 388 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: in the Congressional Budget Act of nine four And what 389 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: it basically means is Congress changes existing laws to conform 390 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: tax and spending levels to the levels set in a 391 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: budget as alution, and changes recommended by committees pursue into 392 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: a reconciliation instruction or incorporated into a reconciliation measure. Now, 393 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: the problem with this is that's not supposed to It's 394 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: not designed to pass major pieces of legislation. Remember Scott 395 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: Brown was supposed to be the vote against that would 396 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: have killed Obamacare. But then rather than use the normal 397 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: process of passing a bill, well, Obama did what he 398 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 1: always does, you know, makes new rules up as he goes, 399 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: and and they passed the Healthcare bill by reconciliation and 400 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: in other words, directing one or more committees to report 401 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: or submit to the Budget Committee legislation that changes his 402 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 1: existing law in order to bring spending and revenues or 403 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: the debt limit into conformity with the budget resolution. So 404 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: it's basically a budget bill, and it specifies which put 405 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: committees to which they apply and it indicates the appropriate 406 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: dollar changes. But the problem is is what you do 407 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: is you they try to push legislation through it and 408 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: then it's got certain procedural difficulties. It's a real problem, 409 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: you know, and that's having only fifty two Republican senators 410 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 1: represents a challenge in the Senate. So they're not just 411 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: thinking about the household here, they're thinking about the Senate vote. 412 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: And then you got the Bird Rule, which is a 413 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 1: rule in the Senate that amends the Budget Act to 414 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 1: allow Senators during the reconciliation process to block a piece 415 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: of legislation if it purports significantly to increase the federal 416 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: deficit beyond a ten year term or in extrane as 417 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: ways has set forth in the Budget Act. So that's 418 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: the consideration again when you get to the Senate. Senate 419 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: was supposed to start on healthcare next week and you 420 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 1: have culture club. What's culture if you don't you hear 421 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: these words being thrown around. Culture is the only procedure 422 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: by which the Senate can vote to place a time 423 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: limit on consideration. In other words, you need sixty votes, 424 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: in other words, to overcome a filibuster, and under the 425 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: vote to rule, the Senate may limit consideration of appending 426 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: matter to thirty additional hours, but only by a vote 427 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: of three fifths of the full Senate, which is sixty votes. Now, 428 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: for example, Chuck Schumer's threatening to filibuster, and if they 429 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: don't invoke, if they don't invoke the nuclear option, then 430 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: they would otherwise need sixty votes to have an up 431 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: or down straight vote for Neil Gorsch. I listen, I'm 432 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: not trying to drag into the weeds here. I'm just 433 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: not anyway. So they're now reporting that they won't be 434 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: a vote tonight, but they will be available for some votes, 435 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: procedural votes. I guess at eight o'clock tonight, So I 436 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: guess by the time we're on the air tonight, things 437 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 1: will be rocking and rolling there in some way, shape, 438 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: matter or form. But the problem is this, and I 439 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 1: want to be really clear, after eight long years of 440 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 1: saying repeal and replace, and this is where I really 441 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: want to rant. But it's not going to be helpful 442 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: after eight long years for them to follow the role. 443 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: And this is the legislative branch. Remember, I promised to 444 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: all of you that I'm going to be an honest 445 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: broker that we're holding them accountable, and we can't hold 446 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: them accountable on this health care disaster really at this 447 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: point unless we go back and understand where the mistakes 448 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 1: were made. So I'm trying to explain that to you. 449 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: So when you when you're going to roll out a bill, 450 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 1: but you haven't spoken with the Freedom Caucus. And by 451 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: the way, there were Republicans that went against Reagan in 452 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: the early eighties. Remember Reagan gave his tax cuts and 453 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: then he wanted an adjustment to raise taxes. There are 454 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: many Republicans on principle that said no. When George Herbert 455 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: Walker Bush wanted to break his no new tax pledge, 456 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: guys like New Kingrad said no, and he was forever 457 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 1: Hey did by George H. W. Bush thereafter, and remember 458 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: the Democrats pushed and pushed and he said he wouldn't 459 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: do it, and he did it. It ended up costing 460 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: him reelection and giving us Bill Clinton. When you make 461 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: a promise, of promise matters. But what a better way 462 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: to have handled this would have been instead of doing 463 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 1: this secretively and excluding Heritage Foundation, the Cato Institute, Americans 464 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 1: for Prosperity, the Club for Growth, the Republican Study Group, 465 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: the Freedom Caucus Group, and even the moderates. To be fair, 466 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 1: they should have all been consulted, and they should have 467 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 1: built a want list, and they should have put in 468 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: the in the list everything every group needed to pass it. 469 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: Not everybody's not going to get everything they want, but 470 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: it should have been known, and it should have been 471 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 1: negotiated behind closed doors, and the bill should have been 472 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:55,239 Speaker 1: should have been drafted with the consensus of trying to 473 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: get as many Republicans on board as possible, but also 474 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: provide the best bill for the American people. And so 475 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: it ends up being a bill not supported by any 476 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: of the major conservative libertarian think tanks, a bill that 477 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: is not supported by the most conservative groups in Congress. A. 478 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: You know, certain changes were made last minute. I think 479 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: the moderates were wielding way too much power in this process. 480 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 1: You know, when a bill is immediately labeled Obamacare light, 481 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: that's a problem. Watching Republicans after eight years have a 482 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: public intramural fight on TV, I thought it looked horrible 483 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: to me. It looked like they weren't prepared to lead. 484 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: You know, they had eight years to prepare for this moment. 485 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: Every influential conservative radio host. Let's well, the President speaking, 486 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: Let's listen. Let's listens. First of all, I want to 487 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: thank you for your support on healthcare. That's been great. 488 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: I know you had a big problem with Obamacare and 489 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: everybody does, so welcome to the Crab, but I very 490 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: much appreciate you being here, and I very much appreciate 491 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: your support. I'm honored to welcome all of the many 492 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: truckers and the trucking industry leaders for the what White House, 493 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: And I must say, you know, really you are the 494 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: leaders who are the big ones. I'm very impressed that 495 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 1: I was able to get you. I think it was 496 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: the White House that was able to do. No one 497 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: knows America like truckers. No America. You see it every day, 498 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: and you see every hill, and you see every valley, 499 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: and you see every pothole in our roads that have 500 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: to be redone right, every town, every forest from border 501 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: to border to ocean. Ocean's true. It's true. And you 502 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: love America and you love the spirit, and we love 503 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: your spirit. And we want to thank you very much 504 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: because very special people through day and night and all 505 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,959 Speaker 1: kinds of weather. Truckers, of course, the arteries of our 506 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: nation's highways. You carry anything and everything, the food that 507 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: stocks our shelves, the fuel that runs our cars, and 508 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: the steel that builds our cities. Do you think I 509 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: wrote that yet bad? Save that? I would have saved that. 510 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: But America depends on you, and you work very hard 511 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: for America. Many of you spend weeks away from your 512 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: families doing what can sometimes be a very difficult and 513 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: dangerous job. To put it mildly, but you take care 514 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: of yourselves, you look out for your friends, and you 515 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: don't stop until the job is done. That's true. Obamacare 516 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: has inflicted great pain on American truckers. So many of 517 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: you were We brought you the beginning of that tape 518 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: playback because we wanted you to hear, all right, there's 519 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: step Smith all right, so not really a whole lot 520 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: on this. So look, I um, there's a way to 521 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: fix it, and I'm offering solutions. You know, there's been 522 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: very as I said it, this as somebody that is now, 523 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: I've done so many deep dives into alternatives that work, 524 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 1: like to number Atlas m D and concierge care at 525 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: fifty bucks a month for adult, ten bucks for children, 526 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: unlimited care unlimited access reduction reductions and pharmaceuticals and and 527 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: stitches and that's all included, and broken bones and MR 528 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: rise and X rays and it's pretty amazing new developments. Now. 529 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: I think at the end of the day we'll get there. 530 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm hopeful because so many people are now becoming aware 531 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: of it because we just keep hammering it and bringing 532 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: it home. But you know something, I will say that, 533 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: you know, as we move forward fixing this bill and 534 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,959 Speaker 1: then the budget bills and then the tax reforms bills, 535 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: you know, I'd say before maybe we can learn something 536 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: and not handle it this way, because that would be 537 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: doubling down on stupid in my opinion, and before any rollout. 538 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: Hang on the I can't I can't hear what Potus 539 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: is now going to talk about health care the presidents. Now, 540 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: let's listen to the President on the Obama are exchanges. 541 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: You experienced a crippling rise in premiums and a dramatic 542 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,959 Speaker 1: loss in options, and you just take a look at 543 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: what's happened to the costs and it's incredible. You look 544 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: at what's going on with deductibles where they're through the roof, 545 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: so essentially you don't have it because hopefully you'll never 546 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: have to use it because you won't have that kind 547 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: of injury or sickness. So you know the problems, and 548 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: it's put a lot of the trucking businesses out of business, 549 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,959 Speaker 1: which is pretty tough. In addition, many union drivers are 550 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: slater to have their plans taxed to pay Obamacare, and 551 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: they've been against it for a long period of time. 552 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: And trucking companies that are considered large employers have to 553 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: offer government mandated health insurance. You have the mandate. That 554 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: just doesn't work for them. You're forced to do things 555 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: that you don't want to give. Today, the House is 556 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 1: voting to repeal and replace the disaster known as Obamacare. 557 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. It's going to be very close 558 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 1: vote after we peel to replace Obamacare. By the way, 559 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 1: it's close enough because Obamacare is getting us close to politics. 560 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: They know it's no good. Everybody knows it's something. It's 561 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: only politics. Because we have a great bill and I 562 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: think we have a very good chance, but it's only politics. 563 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: You after we repeal and replace Obamacare, we're going to 564 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,959 Speaker 1: do everything we can to make sure truckers stay busy 565 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: moving American goods made by American companies and workers. A 566 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: big difference out there, now, don't you think big difference. 567 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: We will rewrite our broken tax coat and fix our 568 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: terrible trade deals. We will also eliminate job killing or 569 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: right the presidents moving off healthcare. So let me just 570 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: go here and just say that it looks like the 571 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: vote is going to take place tomorrow. I think I 572 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: understand why, and that is that the final wording it 573 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: might go back to the Rules Committee and or the 574 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: letter from Tom Price, who was going to join us 575 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: at the top of the hour, that is going to 576 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: the Freedom Call, because, by the way, the Freedom Caucus. 577 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: I think this is in the great tradition of really, 578 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: you know, those Republicans that opposed Reagan or the or 579 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: George W. Herbert Walker Bush when he was breaking as 580 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: no new tax pledge. That's the way it's made. And 581 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: for those of you that think this is a bad thing, 582 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: you're wrong. This is actually a good thing. But there's 583 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: lessons certainly to be learned here, and hopefully they will 584 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 1: learn them, all right.

Thank you all right? 622 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: So here here we are tonight, continuing to debate this 623 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: in good faith, not only with our own conference, but 624 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 1: certainly with the President engage. UH. We have not gotten 625 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: enough of our members to get to yes at this 626 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: point under what we're currently considering. However, I would say 627 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 1: progress is being made, and that progress that is being 628 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: made is UH really UH should be applauded with the 629 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: efforts of the White House to try to not only 630 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 1: deliver on a campaign promise, but to deliver lower premiums 631 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 1: for every American from coast to coast and in between them. 632 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 1: And and so I would say that at this point, 633 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: the President's engagement UH is is unparalleled and I believe 634 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: in in the history of our country to actually engage 635 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: a number of members, whether they be moderates or conservatives. UH. 636 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 1: And and I think it's indicative of just a president 637 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: that wants to solve problems, even meeting with somebody like 638 00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 1: Elijah Cummings on drug prescription drub actual UH cost and price. 639 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: I mean, what he said to date in the meeting 640 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 1: was he he singled out Elijah Cummings and said he 641 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: wants to work on an issue for a Democrat. This 642 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 1: is a president that wants to get things done. And 643 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: so I can tell you the Freedom Caucus is committed 644 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: to working with the President to get this done. UH. 645 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: This artificial deadline that we have at this particular point 646 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: of of a vote tonight actually is something that we 647 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: uh we imposed on ourselves, and so I'm very uh 648 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: encouraged and optimistic that if we continue to work together 649 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: and by that we plan to reach out to some 650 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 1: of the men members of the Tuesday group to have 651 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 1: some real discussions on how we can come together and 652 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: have consensus, realizing there's uh different motivations for different members 653 00:37:52,719 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 1: of our conference, and so I think, I think, I 654 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:06,799 Speaker 1: think the procedures for going forward are still fundamental and 655 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: they have not changed for the last couple of weeks. 656 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: If we can make sure that there is an adequate 657 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 1: safety net, that pre existing conditions are taken care of, 658 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 1: where truly premiums start to go down for moms and dads, 659 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,359 Speaker 1: That's that's what it's all about. And I can tell 660 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: you that that's what I heard over and over again 661 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 1: was does this bill actually lower premiums significantly enough to 662 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: make a real difference for people that are struggling to 663 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: pay for healthcare? And I think that we have that 664 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 1: at the very core of where we are. The business 665 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: POA is the kind of I've been having a number 666 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 1: of the discussions with my senate colleagues, both some that 667 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 1: are considered to be very conservative and some that are 668 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:54,359 Speaker 1: considered to be not as quite conservative. Uh. And I'm 669 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 1: optimistic that we can find common ground with at least 670 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: fifty one or fifty two senators in that way, I'm 671 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 1: would be hopeful. Well, I won't even go there. We'll 672 00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: just say one Senators loghouse put on the table that 673 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: you get you see, yes, you know, really right now, 674 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: in terms of talking about specifics of negotiations, I'm not 675 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: going to do that. I can tell you, and I 676 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 1: know that from that's what everybody wants to hear is 677 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: what would get you here. What We've communicated that very 678 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 1: effectively with the President and his staff. But but it's 679 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 1: really not about what I want. It's about what those 680 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: constituents want back home. And so in doing that, uh, 681 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,240 Speaker 1: we started reviewing some of the texts that the the 682 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: administration and our leadership is put for. Uh. There were 683 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: a number of questions in terms of what it did. 684 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: All right, let me just step in here because we 685 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: have the Health and Human Services Secretary Dr Tom Price 686 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: on with us right now. I'm sorry to keep you, 687 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: Mr Secretary. Welcome back to the program. Thanks. All right, 688 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: So the votes pushed off to tomorrow it seems like 689 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: it's close. It seems like there are a few loose 690 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,320 Speaker 1: ends that need to be tied up. As I understood 691 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: that some of it was resolved earlier today and there 692 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 1: was going to be a letter that was given to 693 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: the Freedom Caucause from you, signed by the President of promise. 694 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: Where are we with that. Well, we're in the process 695 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: of making certain that that that we get a bill 696 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: and that we get a plan in place, not just 697 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 1: this piece of legislation, but the kinds of things that 698 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 1: we're able to do with the Department, and then further 699 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:28,360 Speaker 1: legislation after that that will solve the problem of increasing 700 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 1: premium costs and lack of access to care that so 701 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 1: many Americans see. So we're working through that with all 702 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: members of the of the conference in in the House 703 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: of Representatives, and the President and I are are optimistic 704 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: and enthusiastic about the likelihood of this moving forward. All right, 705 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,839 Speaker 1: let's talk about their very specific concerns and the things 706 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,399 Speaker 1: that you just heard from from Congressman Mark Meadows. They 707 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:55,320 Speaker 1: have a voting block of anywhere between thirty and forty members, 708 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: and uh, they are fighting for specific things. I understand 709 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: that both the President, Mark meadows how to deal last night, 710 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: and certain aspects of that deal were not doable because 711 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: of the reconciliation issues that the Senate faces. So it 712 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 1: was a little bit back to the drawing board that 713 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: there was a meeting today that the President got a 714 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 1: lot of applause. You know, one of the things I 715 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:20,240 Speaker 1: know they're talking about is the title one mandates um 716 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: and and dropping all of those things. Where do you 717 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: think you need to go and what what areas need 718 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 1: to be worked on to make this happen? Well, I 719 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: think what folks need is is simply a confidence that 720 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 1: will be able to as an administration given the passage 721 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: of this bill, and then the activities that we can 722 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 1: do from an administrative standpoint, that that we are going 723 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: to get those done so that the premium costs come 724 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: down and deduct deductor bulls come down, and people are 725 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 1: able to have the kind of coverage that they want 726 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: for themselves and their families, not that the government forces 727 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,399 Speaker 1: them to buy. And some of those things are are 728 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 1: the essential health benefits that that are stipulated in the 729 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: current law in Obamacare, that that make the costs of 730 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 1: coverage to be so much greater than it otherwise ought 731 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,839 Speaker 1: to be uh and make it so that many individuals 732 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,240 Speaker 1: out there have an insurance card, but they aren't getting 733 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 1: the care that they need. And and so that's that's 734 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: one area. There are there are other areas about whether 735 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:17,919 Speaker 1: or not third parties ought to pay premiums, the kinds 736 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 1: of things that that that the Department of Helping Human 737 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: Service is able to look at in a in a constitutional, 738 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 1: a legal, a methodical and logical way, pursue it to 739 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: the Administrative Procedures Act so that the American people are 740 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:35,239 Speaker 1: able to look at what we're proposing, have an opportunity 741 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 1: to comment, have us respond and reply to those comments, 742 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 1: and then move forward with these rules changes. Let me 743 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: ask you specifically, go ahead, so I don't want interrupt you, 744 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 1: but so many people, remember are all of the hundreds, 745 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: literally hundreds of rules and regulations that came forward from 746 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,399 Speaker 1: the previous administration, and we're going to look at every 747 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 1: single one of them. As I think I told you 748 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: before fourteen hundred and forty two times in the previous legislation, 749 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 1: in the A c A or the Obamacare Legists LA 750 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: forty two times it said the Secretary shall or the 751 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: Secretary may, and we're going to look at every one 752 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 1: of the items that were that were actions that were 753 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: taken pursuant to those clauses and say to they help people, 754 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: help patients, are harm patients if they aren't patients, and 755 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna do our best to get rid of them. Look, 756 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:22,240 Speaker 1: neither the bill or because of reconciliation, does this bill 757 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: fully repeal it? I mean, and there are procedural difficulties 758 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: to get that, and that's been a big criticism of 759 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 1: a lot of people. And then you know, then we've 760 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 1: got a three phase process, and you're right, the one 761 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: thousand four or forty two times the Secretary shall, the 762 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:39,959 Speaker 1: Secretary may, there's an awful lot of discretion in there. 763 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: And I guess talking to members and even some moderates 764 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: and and conservatives and Freedom Caucus people and study people, 765 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 1: you know, I guess that you can't give a full 766 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: answer right now because you have two other steps beyond tomorrow, 767 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:59,319 Speaker 1: assuming this bill passes, before we ever really get a 768 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: full glimpse of what this is going to mean for 769 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 1: the American people. Is that fair? Well, the full glimpse 770 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: that we can give is just take a look at 771 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,800 Speaker 1: the hundreds of regulations and literally the thousands of guidance 772 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 1: letters that were put out that oftentimes have the authority 773 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: and the power of a rule and say this is 774 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 1: what we're gonna look at and again determine whether it 775 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: harms patients or helps patients, whether it drives up costs 776 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 1: or drives down costs. And if it helps patients and 777 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: drives down costs, then we ought to keep it. But 778 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 1: the vast majority of them harm patients and drive up costs, 779 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 1: and we ought to do something about that. But the process, 780 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,760 Speaker 1: the legal constitutional process that we must go through appropriately 781 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: is defined by the Administrative Procedures Act, and that means 782 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 1: that we have to publicize the intent of the Department, 783 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,760 Speaker 1: to give a period of time for the American people 784 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: and interested parties to make comment, uh, take in those 785 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:51,239 Speaker 1: comments and sincerity and and objectives objectively and and and 786 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: determine whether or not they help the proposal that was 787 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 1: put forward, and then come forward with the decisions. So 788 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 1: it's a process that has to occur. We can't gain 789 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: at system and say this is exactly what we're going 790 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: to do, because that's not that's not what the the process. 791 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 1: And you explain, can you explain to my audience what 792 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: the three beyond you know, the one thousand, four hundred 793 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:16,760 Speaker 1: and forty two instances where you shall the secretary shall 794 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 1: have the ability the secretary may make changes. Can you 795 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:24,719 Speaker 1: explain the three step process so people understand it better? Well, 796 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: the the process is just that that that you look 797 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,719 Speaker 1: at the rules and the regulations. Well, let's start with 798 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 1: the legislation. That's step one. Correct that this is the 799 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: reconciliation legislation that's going through the Congress right now. And 800 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 1: this is the reason that this is important is because 801 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 1: it only requires a simple majority vote in the United 802 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: States Senate of one. It doesn't require the sixty votes 803 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,439 Speaker 1: that most policy does that come to Senate floor. Phase 804 00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 1: because of that, there are certain constraints that they can't 805 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: put in that because of the rules of the of 806 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 1: the Budget Act that was about the Phase two are 807 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,440 Speaker 1: those things that we are doing at the Department of 808 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 1: Health and Human Services right now and will continue to 809 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,479 Speaker 1: do until we've exhausted all of the things that harm 810 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: patients and drive up costs. Those are the rules and 811 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,319 Speaker 1: regulations and literally thousands of guidance letters that were put 812 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 1: in place by the previous administration. And then Phase three 813 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,800 Speaker 1: are the legislative things, the things that need to change 814 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,360 Speaker 1: law that require sixty votes in the United States Senate 815 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: and therefore have to be done in a different manner. 816 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 1: And some of those have already passed. For example, the 817 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 1: McCall mccaren Ferguson repeal UH yesterday or the day before, 818 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: passed in the House of Representatives four hundred and sixteen 819 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 1: or four hundred and seventeen to two or something like that. 820 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: So these, many of these enjoy significant bipartisan support, but 821 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,400 Speaker 1: they can't be put in this initial piece of legislation 822 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 1: because of the rules. So what are you gonna do 823 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: now that you still have the Freedom Caucus guys that 824 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 1: have enough votes to stop this bill from passing, what 825 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: are you going to do between now and tomorrow morning 826 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 1: to make to get this rolling? Well, it's not just 827 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 1: the Freedom Caucus, folks, it's it's other members of the conference, 828 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,400 Speaker 1: the Tuesday Group and the like who when when you 829 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: push one where at one place, it pushes something out elsewhere. 830 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: And so you've got to we've got to bring everybody 831 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 1: together and talk with them about whether or not they 832 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: have a comfort level with us and and move forward. 833 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 1: And and I have I have the utmost competence that 834 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: we're going to be able to get it done. And 835 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 1: do is there any specific way that you think you 836 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,359 Speaker 1: can thread this needle, because there seems to be such 837 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 1: a divergence and viewpoints on this. Yeah, you just have 838 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,479 Speaker 1: to continue working with folks and explain one why why 839 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 1: we're we're recommending inclusion of certain items within the legislation itself, 840 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,319 Speaker 1: what the rationalities for why it helps people out there 841 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 1: in the real world, not not here in Washington, d 842 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:50,960 Speaker 1: see why it makes it so that patients and families 843 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 1: and doctors there would be having more authority and healthcare 844 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: as opposed to the federal government. Uh, And then and 845 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,839 Speaker 1: listening to their concerns and and saying if they're there 846 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 1: are things that, uh, you believe will assist in making 847 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 1: it better than than we're We're happy to listen to 848 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 1: an understanding that the next step will be in the 849 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 1: United States Senate and we'll go through the same process there. 850 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,799 Speaker 1: But the tough legislation is tough to do. And then 851 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: that's where we find ourselves right now, and and it 852 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,760 Speaker 1: it feels kind of like other legislation that's been difficult 853 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 1: in the past. All right, sir, Thank you for your time. 854 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 1: We're going to monitor all of this.

All right, let's get to our 881 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 1: busy phones. Janison, California, Jennie, Hey, how are you? And 882 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: glad you call? What's on your mind today? Hi? Sean Uh. 883 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:45,080 Speaker 1: I wanted to share that first of all, I'm very 884 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:49,600 Speaker 1: proud of the Conservative members of making a stand and 885 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 1: it sounds like it's down to about two points. They're 886 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 1: they're holding out for um and they're obviously holding out 887 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,799 Speaker 1: for their constituents, and they're very great to do it. 888 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: I think they're genius and if very respectful way to 889 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,319 Speaker 1: the president as well. UM, I'd like to say, I 890 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:08,359 Speaker 1: think our frustrations need to be pointed to Paul Ryan, 891 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 1: and I'd love to see keep pulling his feet to 892 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 1: the fire because he keeps showing um if he just 893 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 1: wants he led us to believe there was consensus. There 894 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 1: wasn't consensus. He was trying to push it down in 895 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:24,720 Speaker 1: the one's groach. The president is the one who seems 896 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 1: to be more active in negotiating, which is awesome, But well, 897 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:32,360 Speaker 1: I'll be perfectly blunt with you. I think the president, 898 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 1: I think by not building consensus and keeping it secret 899 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 1: and not bringing in the differing factions, moderates, conservatives to 900 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 1: study group, the caucus group, I think, is then then 901 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 1: put the president in the position of trying to clean 902 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:51,319 Speaker 1: up a mess and not of his own doing. And 903 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 1: I think he's trying to the best of his ability, 904 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 1: and I think it was an untenable position for it 905 00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:58,839 Speaker 1: for him to be put in. That's my own take 906 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:03,440 Speaker 1: on this comblutely, and I I know I heard him 907 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: say that he does trust Paul Ryan, but I'm sorry, 908 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. He should have brought the people in. 909 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 1: He should have allowed these men haven't changed their their 910 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,279 Speaker 1: story and what they're requesting for their constituents and what's 911 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:23,479 Speaker 1: best for America. They're very consistent saying the same things 912 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: over and over again. So why didn't Paul Ryan listen? 913 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 1: Why didn't keep bring them in? So I think keep 914 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 1: holding his feet to the fire. I loved your last 915 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 1: interview with him, and I think we're gonna need it 916 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 1: going forward. She's been amazing and in just this whole process. Listen, 917 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,400 Speaker 1: all I'm really trying to do here is get a 918 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:44,840 Speaker 1: bill that is going to work on principles that I 919 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 1: know work. And the principles are very, very basic and simple. 920 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 1: I believe in free market competition, supply and demand, crisscross 921 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 1: and dictate price. The supply will increase. For example, if 922 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: everybody's eat up health care money available to them, then 923 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 1: you're what you're gonna have. Or are all of these 924 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 1: insurance companies competing for your dollars and the the insurance 925 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: companies that offer the best deal, the best coverage at 926 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,719 Speaker 1: the best price are gonna be the most successful. You know, 927 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 1: the cooperatives that have developed, like in Wichita, Kansas, they're 928 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 1: gonna be duplicated. You know, young people will get catastrophic 929 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 1: plans with a medium too high deductible and they're covered 930 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,880 Speaker 1: if they have a heart attack, a bad accident, of 931 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 1: God forbid, get cancer. All right, we'll stay with the 932 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 1: phones when we get back, and then we're gonna get 933 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 1: to the Devin Nunias comments also straight ahead, alright, now 934 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,279 Speaker 1: till the top of the hour, one seawn, if you 935 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. Uh, you 936 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: know what, Let's get to some calls here A right, 937 00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,359 Speaker 1: So we're following all of these top stories today. Let 938 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 1: me just reiterate number one. The Schumer now is pledged. 939 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: Let's play that. We didn't play the cut yet, did we? 940 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:56,120 Speaker 1: All right? Um, I've been dealing with a lot behind 941 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: the scenes today, all right, let's and I'm trying to 942 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,439 Speaker 1: get an understanding. I'm working the phones, and I'm talking 943 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 1: to every side of this deal, from the Freedom Caucus 944 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: to the Moderates, to the friends that I have in 945 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 1: the executive branch. And uh, you know, I'm gonna tell 946 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,040 Speaker 1: you what I really feel, because that's I feel. The 947 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 1: President has not been served here well. And it's it's 948 00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: Paul Ryan's job to get the legislation to the point 949 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,720 Speaker 1: where it gets past the pased. He in the House 950 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:27,799 Speaker 1: has the responsibility to advance the president's agenda, and he 951 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 1: didn't reach out to all the different factions and groups 952 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:34,439 Speaker 1: and now they're at each other's throats, and he left 953 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:36,719 Speaker 1: the president to end up cleaning up the mess that 954 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 1: should have been dealt with before they roll this out. 955 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 1: That's really what it is. I'm just I'm just speaking 956 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 1: truth to power here. Now. The president is in the 957 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,960 Speaker 1: in a horrible position. Anyway, let's go to Chuck Schumer. 958 00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 1: He's gonna filibuster Gorsuch, which, by the way, I'm happy about. 959 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,840 Speaker 1: And I'll explain. After careful deliberation, I have concluded that 960 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 1: I cannot port Judge Neil Gorsuch his nomination to the 961 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 1: Supreme Court. His nomination will have a cloture vote, he 962 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 1: will have to earn sixty votes for confirmation. My vote 963 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 1: will be no, and I urge my colleagues to do 964 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 1: the same. To my Republican friends who think that if 965 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 1: Judge Gorcrich fails to reach sixty votes, we ought to 966 00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:25,919 Speaker 1: change the rules, I say, if this nominee cannot earn 967 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 1: sixty votes obar met by each of President Obama's nominees 968 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 1: and George Bush's last two nominees, the answer isn't to 969 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 1: change the rules, It's to change the nominee. The reason 970 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:43,319 Speaker 1: I now believe the nuclear options time has come is 971 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:49,439 Speaker 1: with all of the radical leftists that Republicans being accommodating 972 00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: and trying to be kind and trying to be you know, 973 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:58,280 Speaker 1: get along and play fair and be nice, etcetera. Um, 974 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: you know what, They're never going to give reciprocity to Republicans, 975 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:06,279 Speaker 1: So what's the point. Just use the nuclear option? Well, 976 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,839 Speaker 1: they're gonna use it to they already are using it 977 00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 1: and Republicans are far too gentle in their fights. What 978 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:17,439 Speaker 1: is it? Why are you making faces at the TV 979 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:19,439 Speaker 1: that you're looking at? I'm so sorry. I just every 980 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,880 Speaker 1: time I look up today there's another piece of breaking news, 981 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,320 Speaker 1: and honest to god, I can't keep up. What what? Okay? 982 00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:26,319 Speaker 1: Well what just broke that? I don't know? That's why 983 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 1: I'm staring with the blank stare and saying now what. 984 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 1: Every time you look up, there's a podium with a 985 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,319 Speaker 1: microphone that they keep going to. So we we're like, 986 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,319 Speaker 1: is there another press conference? Another one? All right? It 987 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. The votes off vote will take place tomorrow 988 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 1: and sometime. I assume between tonight and tomorrow, uh, that 989 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna probably come to some type of consensus and deal, 990 00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:49,400 Speaker 1: and you know what, if they don't, then they don't. 991 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: I think I think there's a way out of this. 992 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 1: My own personal opinion if they But you know what, 993 00:55:56,560 --> 00:56:00,160 Speaker 1: nobody's listening to me. From the beginning. The process have 994 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:04,359 Speaker 1: been handled differently from day one. You don't hide legislation 995 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:08,399 Speaker 1: in the CBO that people are guessing has bad things 996 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,560 Speaker 1: in it, and then all of a sudden it comes 997 00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 1: out and all the bad things that people are warning 998 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:17,640 Speaker 1: about is in it. And then you've got to move 999 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 1: on from there, and you've got it down. Now the 1000 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:23,160 Speaker 1: President gets put in the position of being the Speaker 1001 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 1: of the House and working the phones and defending the legislator. 1002 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:31,279 Speaker 1: It's not his job to write legislation. It's the principles 1003 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,480 Speaker 1: that he lays out that he's supposed that want in 1004 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:38,320 Speaker 1: his bill. You know, a three step process, one step process, 1005 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: no repeal, No, you know it gets if I'm confused, 1006 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 1: then the average voters confused, and it should be understandable. 1007 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:51,439 Speaker 1: Now at the end of the day, can we still 1008 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 1: come up with health care savings accounts and cooperatives and 1009 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 1: repeal Obamacare and get rid of the mandates and and 1010 00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,399 Speaker 1: all the things that have been wrong? Yeah, of course 1011 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 1: you can. There's ways to fix it. I'm personally not 1012 00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,560 Speaker 1: in any rush here. Maybe that's just my view I'd 1013 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 1: rather get it right then rush it through. So let's 1014 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: see what happens anyway.

But you know something, let's 1033 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:28,280 Speaker 1: see what we Let's see what we have to do. 1034 00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:33,720 Speaker 1: Is let when they started talking about nationwide, all state 1035 00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 1: state farm farmers and all the big insurance companies. You 1036 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 1: never hear them talk about it, Sean. And you know why, 1037 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 1: because they're excluded by the health care companies. I've been 1038 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:51,000 Speaker 1: insurance license for twenty seven years and never wrote a 1039 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 1: health policy. And the reasons because it's a closed market. 1040 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,880 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you that's where it's at. And Paul 1041 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 1: Ryan has been deceitful. Donald Trump doesn't know anything about insurance. 1042 00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,280 Speaker 1: All he knows is that he wants this thing to work. 1043 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 1: They need to open it up. Paul ront up Rand, 1044 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 1: Paul and the Freedom Caucus is on the right track. 1045 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,880 Speaker 1: And all I can say is, let's help them to 1046 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 1: stick to that and open up the market. And watch 1047 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:23,919 Speaker 1: what happens to health care. It becomes just like car 1048 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,680 Speaker 1: insurance and life insurance.

I fully 1100 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 1: believe that he's the only one that's in control right now, 1101 01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 1: and it's comfortable he's in the zone. He has got 1102 01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:34,960 Speaker 1: everybody out out of the corners and then their secret 1103 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:37,800 Speaker 1: whatever they've been doing, and getting them out and negotiating 1104 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:41,400 Speaker 1: very hands on. Trump really is the only one I 1105 01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:46,120 Speaker 1: trust in this negotiating process right now. I will say this, Yeah, 1106 01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:49,000 Speaker 1: I agree. And you know what, the fact that eight 1107 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 1: years gone by and they didn't have a consensus bill, 1108 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 1: that's not Donald Trump's fault. The fact that they laid 1109 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:56,320 Speaker 1: out a bill that wasn't a consensus bill, that's not 1110 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:59,120 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's fault. The fact that he has reached out 1111 01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:02,880 Speaker 1: across the you know, across all aspects of the Republican 1112 01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:06,920 Speaker 1: Party and every coalition and every different group is a 1113 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 1: credit to him. This is not Donald Trump's fault, and 1114 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 1: this is a he is he this is this is where, 1115 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 1: this is where his true leadership is. He knew that 1116 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 1: if he was going to get this passed through the swamp, 1117 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:22,680 Speaker 1: he's going to have to drag these guys through the 1118 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 1: swamp with Paul Ryan. Paul Ryan has his leadership is 1119 01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:33,160 Speaker 1: no credibility. Uh, their record of getting it nothing done 1120 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 1: for all these years and then, Uh, this is why 1121 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 1: I think, do you think we have anything good? If 1122 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 1: if Trump was a president today, if it was another 1123 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:44,960 Speaker 1: one of the candidates that were listen, I'm only I'm 1124 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 1: only telling you what I know and the facts as 1125 01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 1: I see them, and I'm telling you that this this 1126 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:53,840 Speaker 1: didn't have to be this way. There was a better 1127 01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 1: way to handle this, and that's that is playing speaker. 1128 01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:02,480 Speaker 1: I think he's well, he's been handed he was previous 1129 01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 1: eight years. He's been put in the position that he 1130 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:08,200 Speaker 1: had to take on that role and that's not his 1131 01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 1: job now. It's his job to push for legislation that 1132 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 1: he really believes in. But I don't. I just think 1133 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 1: in this particular case, it was really mishandled. But we'll 1134 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 1: have to wait and see what happens. Um, all right, 1135 01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:22,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate it.

Yes, it's funny. I'm sitting here laughing 1138 01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:32,360 Speaker 1: because the previous caller was pretty much stealing my thunder. 1139 01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:35,880 Speaker 1: But you know, like we said all that, there's a 1140 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,760 Speaker 1: reason that Congress has such a low rating, and it's 1141 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,240 Speaker 1: because they do stuff and have done stuff like they're 1142 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 1: doing now. They can't get anything done. Everybody's got their 1143 01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:49,560 Speaker 1: own agenda. And the bottom line is when all this 1144 01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:51,560 Speaker 1: is said and done, the only one that we can 1145 01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:54,040 Speaker 1: trust in this whole thing, and that's why he got 1146 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:58,440 Speaker 1: to be elected president is Donald Trump exactly. You know what, 1147 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,520 Speaker 1: and I do put more faith than him. You know, 1148 01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:02,520 Speaker 1: it's funny. I talked to a bunch of Freedom Caucus 1149 01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:06,200 Speaker 1: guys today and they were very very clear in that 1150 01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 1: they trust Trump and they don't trust they don't trust 1151 01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 1: the speaker of the leadership. That's that's the leadership's problem. 1152 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:15,280 Speaker 1: The people that they needed to build trust what they 1153 01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:19,040 Speaker 1: ignored for three weeks. You know, And like you said, 1154 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:21,360 Speaker 1: we've been saying and you've been saying other people have 1155 01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,160 Speaker 1: been saying they've had eight years to get this right. Well, 1156 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:26,800 Speaker 1: I also think the Freedom Caucus and all these other 1157 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 1: people that are objecting to all this stuff, they also 1158 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:33,680 Speaker 1: had eight years to make their voices known. And you know, 1159 01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 1: you gotta be ready, and I don't think they were 1160 01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:40,240 Speaker 1: ready even themselves to confront what they're doing. And I 1161 01:05:40,320 --> 01:05:44,000 Speaker 1: think bottom line is it, Mr President is going to 1162 01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:47,720 Speaker 1: have to take every single solitary thing and walk this 1163 01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:50,400 Speaker 1: thing through if he's gonna get it done, because they're 1164 01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:54,680 Speaker 1: going to keep playing politics both sides. Well, if they do, 1165 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:58,280 Speaker 1: then they're gonna make a mistake because as a party, 1166 01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 1: as a group, they promised to repeal and replace. But 1167 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:05,919 Speaker 1: with that said, I would rather wait and I would 1168 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 1: rather get it right then have a bill that is 1169 01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:14,360 Speaker 1: not what is in the best interest of the American people. Anyway, 1170 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Eight nine Poll one, Shawn, real quick, 1171 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:19,360 Speaker 1: Alan is in Maine. What's up? Alan?

Sean Hannity Right News round Up and 1224 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,679 Speaker 1: information Overload our here on the Sean Hannity Show, following 1225 01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:57,040 Speaker 1: a bunch of stories today the aftermath of London. We've 1226 01:08:57,080 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 1: got Senate Minority Leader Chucky Schumer problem, saying to filibuster 1227 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,920 Speaker 1: Neil Gorsts, no surprise on that we, of course of 1228 01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:09,440 Speaker 1: following the health care vote, and uh, we are continuing 1229 01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:12,240 Speaker 1: our coverage of all of these issues, not the least 1230 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,679 Speaker 1: if I think one of the most important issues of 1231 01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:18,400 Speaker 1: the day, and that is we talk about Congressman Devin 1232 01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:21,840 Speaker 1: Neunius and what he said and I recently confirmed and 1233 01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:26,519 Speaker 1: on numerous occasions, the intelligence community incidentally collected information about 1234 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:30,599 Speaker 1: US citizens involved in the Trump transition, details about US 1235 01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 1: persons associated with the incoming administration. Details with little or 1236 01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 1: no apparent foreign intelligence value, were widely disseminated in intelligence 1237 01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:46,840 Speaker 1: community reporting. Third I have confirmed that additional names of 1238 01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:51,160 Speaker 1: Trump transition team members were unmasked. From what I know 1239 01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:55,600 Speaker 1: right now, it looks like incidental collection. We don't know 1240 01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:57,760 Speaker 1: exactly how that was picked up, but we're trying to 1241 01:09:57,760 --> 01:09:59,600 Speaker 1: get to the bottom of it. I believe it was 1242 01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,639 Speaker 1: all done legally. I think it was all obtained legally. 1243 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:05,080 Speaker 1: It appears most of this occurred from what I've seen 1244 01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:10,200 Speaker 1: in November, December, and January during during the transition. I 1245 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 1: have seen intelligence reports that clearly show that the President 1246 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:18,040 Speaker 1: elect and his team were I guess it's at least 1247 01:10:18,200 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 1: monitored and disseminated out in an intelligence reporting channels. Are 1248 01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:25,679 Speaker 1: you saying the surveillance if it wasn't related to Russia 1249 01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:27,600 Speaker 1: or anything like that? Are you saying that it was 1250 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:32,240 Speaker 1: political surveillance of political opponents as the President has suggested 1251 01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 1: his tweets. What I've read bothers me, and I think 1252 01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:41,000 Speaker 1: it should bother the President himself and his team, because 1253 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:42,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I think some of it seems to be 1254 01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:46,920 Speaker 1: inappropriate that President Obama ordered any kind of surveillance of 1255 01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 1: the president. We don't know. We don't know who sent 1256 01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 1: the taskings, if the taskings were changed into what went 1257 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:58,800 Speaker 1: into these intelligence reports, But we're going to try to 1258 01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:06,840 Speaker 1: find that out. Who possibly senior ollustration officials. All right there, 1259 01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:10,639 Speaker 1: you here, Devin nuna Is, this is blockbuster information and 1260 01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:12,559 Speaker 1: what did they know? When did they know? And who 1261 01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:15,679 Speaker 1: knew what when and where? And we have more questions 1262 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:17,559 Speaker 1: today than we have answers. Joining us now on our 1263 01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:20,200 Speaker 1: newsmaker line, we have three people that have been following 1264 01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 1: these issues very closely. Sarah Carter is the senior editor 1265 01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 1: for Circa dot com. She along with her colleague John Solomon, 1266 01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:30,200 Speaker 1: have been telling you all of this information for the 1267 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 1: better part of two and a half weeks on this 1268 01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:35,439 Speaker 1: program and on my television program. Bill Benny, thirty two 1269 01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 1: year veteran at the n S A whistle blower, he's 1270 01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:40,280 Speaker 1: the one that's been telling us that in fact, every 1271 01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:43,439 Speaker 1: phone call, every text, every email is in fact monitor 1272 01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:47,519 Speaker 1: metadata and stored by the government. And uh he joins 1273 01:11:47,600 --> 01:11:50,080 Speaker 1: us as long as as well as Kirk Web, former 1274 01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,759 Speaker 1: senior analysts for the n s A. Sarah, this really, 1275 01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:58,120 Speaker 1: to me just confirmed what Congressman Nunas said. It really 1276 01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:01,919 Speaker 1: just confirms everything you and John Solomon have been reporting. 1277 01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:05,240 Speaker 1: Let's pick up from where you started and what he 1278 01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:08,880 Speaker 1: said yesterday and how this all connects well. I remember 1279 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,439 Speaker 1: I was thinking about that the other day, Sean, when 1280 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:14,479 Speaker 1: I broke my first story on the Department of Justice, 1281 01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:18,640 Speaker 1: and it was about the investigation, and the sources that 1282 01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 1: I spoke with said there is a narrow range of 1283 01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:26,599 Speaker 1: people that can actually access this information unmasked. That means 1284 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:30,080 Speaker 1: give permission to unmask this information and disseminate it to 1285 01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 1: intelligence agencies. So I broke that story. John and I 1286 01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:37,920 Speaker 1: continue to break story after story on this. Regarding the 1287 01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:44,400 Speaker 1: server in Trump Tower, regarding uh the FBI's investigation into 1288 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:46,920 Speaker 1: the Russian hacking. We were able to confirm that there 1289 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 1: was an FBI investigation into Russian hacking and that the 1290 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 1: server was a separate, traditional investigation that was closed down 1291 01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 1: immediately because they didn't find any criminal criminality or any 1292 01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 1: evidence with the server. But we got to go back. 1293 01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:02,000 Speaker 1: Let me stop you here, not because I want to 1294 01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:03,800 Speaker 1: interrupt you and be rude, but I want to put 1295 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:06,120 Speaker 1: a fine point on this. When the FBI director could, 1296 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,879 Speaker 1: excuse me, testified earlier this week before the House Intelligence Committee, 1297 01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 1: he acknowledged that this investigation was ongoing and still ongoing. 1298 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,320 Speaker 1: You you're reporting, has said they found nothing that is 1299 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 1: correct up into this state, unless something new comes out 1300 01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:23,519 Speaker 1: later that we had no idea about. But up until 1301 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:26,400 Speaker 1: this state, according to all the sources that we spoke with, 1302 01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:31,240 Speaker 1: the story was vetted very, very heavily. Um, they had 1303 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:34,719 Speaker 1: no evidence to date to charge neither Trump or anyone 1304 01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:37,840 Speaker 1: on his team with anything criminal with relation to the 1305 01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:41,280 Speaker 1: Russian hacking. Okay, so there's no evidence now when you 1306 01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:45,120 Speaker 1: take what what Congressman Nuniaz says, and he even went 1307 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,360 Speaker 1: further in saying that this bothers him and I'll know 1308 01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:49,720 Speaker 1: more at the bottom of those half hour, and you 1309 01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:52,559 Speaker 1: put it together with what you have reported and what 1310 01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 1: the FBI director said this week, then I guess my 1311 01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:58,040 Speaker 1: next question to you is where is this going? Where 1312 01:13:58,080 --> 01:14:01,920 Speaker 1: did these leaks come from? Who about the investigation, How 1313 01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:04,720 Speaker 1: much surveillance took place. They might say it's in an 1314 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:07,400 Speaker 1: incidental but in the case of General Flynn, we know 1315 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:11,400 Speaker 1: that they didn't minimize as the Espionage Act requires, and 1316 01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:14,920 Speaker 1: they leaked it, which the Espionage Act says is a 1317 01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,720 Speaker 1: felony punishable up to five years in jail. I can 1318 01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:19,759 Speaker 1: tell you that I've been speaking to you as officials 1319 01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 1: today and there are a number of people very concerned. 1320 01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:28,240 Speaker 1: They said, if what Nunius revealed is is actually fat 1321 01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:32,160 Speaker 1: and they are able to show that these communications were 1322 01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:34,799 Speaker 1: disseminated with nothing to do with Russia, and it appears 1323 01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:37,680 Speaker 1: to be political. The violation of the civil liberties of 1324 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:40,439 Speaker 1: all Americans that this is. This is probably one of 1325 01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:45,840 Speaker 1: the biggest stories, political stories since Watergate, and there is 1326 01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:48,960 Speaker 1: going to be I believe there needs to be a 1327 01:14:49,040 --> 01:14:52,519 Speaker 1: very deep investigation. A lot of this stuff is classified. Shoon. 1328 01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:54,720 Speaker 1: You know, it's very difficult for us to get our 1329 01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:58,360 Speaker 1: hands on that Chairman Nunius may be able to get 1330 01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:00,479 Speaker 1: his hands on. I know for us it's going to 1331 01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:03,760 Speaker 1: be extremely difficult. But according to US officials, I mean, 1332 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:08,040 Speaker 1: the collection of this incidental information and I don't even 1333 01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:11,680 Speaker 1: know what that means exactly, UM has serious repercussions and 1334 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:15,519 Speaker 1: implications for our personal privacy. Let me go to Bill Benny. Bill, 1335 01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:18,600 Speaker 1: you have been very outspoken, thirty two year n s 1336 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:21,519 Speaker 1: a veteran, and uh, you know you're the one that's 1337 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 1: telling us that all this metadata is being stored on 1338 01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:27,800 Speaker 1: every single person. And you hear what Devin Nunia has said, 1339 01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:31,000 Speaker 1: and you hear about quote incidentally, that the President elect 1340 01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:34,439 Speaker 1: and his team, his transition team were surveiled. What is 1341 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:37,360 Speaker 1: your reaction. Well, and first let me say that Comey 1342 01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:41,519 Speaker 1: has already has known about this uh quote incidental collection, 1343 01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 1: which is everything on the fiber lines inside the United States. 1344 01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:47,000 Speaker 1: He's known about it since the hospital visit in two 1345 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:50,040 Speaker 1: thousand four. That was all about the Stellar Wind program, 1346 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:52,559 Speaker 1: which is the domestic spying program. And that's done by 1347 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,960 Speaker 1: the upstream processing of tapping the fiber lines inside the 1348 01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:59,160 Speaker 1: country by the Fairview program, the storm Brew program, the 1349 01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:02,519 Speaker 1: Blarney program, and several others. But those are the main 1350 01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 1: ones collecting content and meditate on every US citizen inside 1351 01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:08,720 Speaker 1: the country. And that's what that's what they're going And 1352 01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:10,040 Speaker 1: then all they have to do if they want to 1353 01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:12,760 Speaker 1: find something about President Trump, they simply go in and 1354 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:15,000 Speaker 1: use his data to find out what's in there on here, 1355 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:17,800 Speaker 1: and it can retroactively analyze it all the way back 1356 01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:20,679 Speaker 1: to at least two thousand and one. You know, Kirk, 1357 01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:24,080 Speaker 1: let me ask you from this standpoint, if it's incidental, Well, 1358 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:26,639 Speaker 1: that tells me that's almost the exact same thing that 1359 01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 1: happened to General Flynn. And then the general practices that 1360 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:33,800 Speaker 1: I understand as I understand them is minimization and no 1361 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:38,040 Speaker 1: leaking whatsoever. Now we we now have to ask, well, okay, 1362 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:41,600 Speaker 1: why did Devon Junia said that this was widely dispersed 1363 01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 1: and in fact that they were able to identify the 1364 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:49,360 Speaker 1: individuals the Americans that were being surveiled as a part 1365 01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: of the course of their businesses surveiling foreign entities that 1366 01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:56,000 Speaker 1: to me, unveiling or amasking as we call it, you know, 1367 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:58,439 Speaker 1: should never have happened. Am I right? Does that then? 1368 01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:01,200 Speaker 1: Does that then raise the specter of the question why 1369 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 1: Executive Order twelve Triple three then allowed the sharing with 1370 01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:09,400 Speaker 1: sixteen other agencies? Well, absolutely shown your spot on. When 1371 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:11,640 Speaker 1: I look at what Nunas said, when I look at 1372 01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:15,599 Speaker 1: what Sarah and her colleague Mr Solomon are reporting, and 1373 01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:20,880 Speaker 1: I have a few sources myself of ex intel people, Um, 1374 01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 1: we're pretty much unanimous in believing that this was purposeful 1375 01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:32,640 Speaker 1: targeting of an American or American citizens plural um. Probably 1376 01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:35,600 Speaker 1: for political purposes. And it may have even been the 1377 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:39,960 Speaker 1: d o J who weasel worded a request to fight 1378 01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:46,080 Speaker 1: to get it theoretically okay, but hiding behind the legality 1379 01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:49,240 Speaker 1: of PISA when in fact it's a corrupt practice when 1380 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:52,280 Speaker 1: you do that. The point of it is, so you 1381 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:54,640 Speaker 1: are you saying this is basically a ruse, that this 1382 01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:57,320 Speaker 1: in other words, there was a FISA warrant, as Sarah says, 1383 01:17:57,400 --> 01:17:59,800 Speaker 1: There was a criminal warrant, as Sarah says, but it 1384 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 1: wasn't specifically against Trump himself, the president elect himself, but 1385 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:06,720 Speaker 1: it was into the Russian hacking issue, and as part 1386 01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:09,960 Speaker 1: of that, they got into the Trump Tower servers. And 1387 01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 1: then they're saying now also they had incidental surveillance. In 1388 01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:16,160 Speaker 1: other words, if if if the President was talking to 1389 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,280 Speaker 1: a foreign leader and they were tapping that foreign leader, 1390 01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:21,960 Speaker 1: that means they were listening in on that call. Absolutely, Sean, 1391 01:18:22,160 --> 01:18:24,479 Speaker 1: that's what I am saying, And you're saying, this is 1392 01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:26,879 Speaker 1: a ruse, This is a this is just an excuse 1393 01:18:26,960 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 1: to spy on the president. The fight apart, what makes 1394 01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:33,320 Speaker 1: it sound legal? Remember when noon you has said this 1395 01:18:33,439 --> 01:18:36,599 Speaker 1: was legal, that gives it that legal stamp. But when 1396 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,439 Speaker 1: you find the motivation for it, and what did they 1397 01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:42,800 Speaker 1: say to fight it? Did they misrepresent the facts? That 1398 01:18:43,080 --> 01:18:46,640 Speaker 1: is what is key here. Now, somebody, some analysts, and 1399 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:50,560 Speaker 1: let me clarify incidental collection. It's really important to understand. 1400 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:54,360 Speaker 1: It makes it sound though it's accidental. Do not make 1401 01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:59,000 Speaker 1: that substitution in words in your mind. There is no 1402 01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:03,680 Speaker 1: incidental collection. If you think collection is the gathering of 1403 01:19:03,880 --> 01:19:08,280 Speaker 1: data off the Internet, the fiber optic lines. It's all 1404 01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:12,040 Speaker 1: done purposefully and they get it all. What they are 1405 01:19:12,120 --> 01:19:16,720 Speaker 1: calling incidental is when a human being listens to the 1406 01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:20,519 Speaker 1: targeted data, in this case probably a foreigner, and the 1407 01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:24,720 Speaker 1: opposite end of that communication, email or phone call is 1408 01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 1: an American. They're calling that incidental, that it's somehow built in, 1409 01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:32,640 Speaker 1: and the analyst doesn't really want to listen to that 1410 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:36,880 Speaker 1: American citizen, but they can. But when they do that, 1411 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:39,960 Speaker 1: and they want to make it an official record such 1412 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:44,120 Speaker 1: as a transcript or report, they must get authorization from 1413 01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:47,360 Speaker 1: FASA to do it. All right, stay right there, all 1414 01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:49,719 Speaker 1: of you will get reaction from Sarah Carter bill bidding 1415 01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:52,960 Speaker 1: when we get back.

Do 1454 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:38,120 Speaker 1: you agree with what Bill and Kirk are saying that 1455 01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:42,520 Speaker 1: in many ways this really wasn't about them doing surveillance 1456 01:21:42,640 --> 01:21:46,240 Speaker 1: or incidental surveillance, and it just so happened that they 1457 01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:50,519 Speaker 1: picked up the president alecs calls and the transition team's calls. 1458 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:53,519 Speaker 1: You don't agree with that, do you? Sarah um no 1459 01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean I think that in the sense that when 1460 01:21:56,040 --> 01:21:58,960 Speaker 1: you're looking at this, they talk about it being legal 1461 01:21:59,040 --> 01:22:02,360 Speaker 1: surveillance activity. These okay, the surveillance activity is the fis 1462 01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:04,880 Speaker 1: SO was put in on Russia. Those are legal, But 1463 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:08,800 Speaker 1: as we heard from a Chairman Nunius, Uh, this went 1464 01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 1: far beyond Russia. This went far beyond even the illegal 1465 01:22:12,920 --> 01:22:17,360 Speaker 1: leaking um and exposure of Lieutenant General Michael Flynn's name 1466 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:21,000 Speaker 1: uh to the public. I mean, there is a lot 1467 01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:24,840 Speaker 1: of information floating around out there, and Chairman Nunius said 1468 01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:27,959 Speaker 1: that's why he felt compelled to go to the president 1469 01:22:28,040 --> 01:22:31,439 Speaker 1: because he's like, wait, we're seeing reports here of of 1470 01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 1: communications between not only the president, of people around the 1471 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:40,680 Speaker 1: president surrounding the president from November through January that are 1472 01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:44,479 Speaker 1: out there in intelligence reports that are accessible to the 1473 01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:47,800 Speaker 1: possibility of a lot of people in the possibility of leaks. 1474 01:22:48,040 --> 01:22:52,360 Speaker 1: And this goes far beyond the scope of what he 1475 01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:56,040 Speaker 1: I think he's suggesting was the intention of the information 1476 01:22:56,439 --> 01:22:59,880 Speaker 1: And somebody needs to answer to this. I mean, when 1477 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:02,920 Speaker 1: I'm hearing what I'm hearing from the intelligence community, from 1478 01:23:02,920 --> 01:23:05,280 Speaker 1: members of the intelligence community, is that they are being 1479 01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:09,160 Speaker 1: dragged in into a political haystorm. There are people within 1480 01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 1: the intelligence community that want to be able to do 1481 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:13,920 Speaker 1: their jobs. They want to be able to do the 1482 01:23:14,040 --> 01:23:17,520 Speaker 1: right thing, and now they are going to be targeted 1483 01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:19,680 Speaker 1: by the American public because they're gonna be looking like 1484 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:22,719 Speaker 1: their partisan or like they're working against our own government. 1485 01:23:22,720 --> 01:23:24,760 Speaker 1: And I think there needs to be some clarity here, 1486 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:28,280 Speaker 1: so not only we could unnask this who was responsible 1487 01:23:28,320 --> 01:23:31,840 Speaker 1: for this, but also um maybe gives U alleviate a 1488 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:34,800 Speaker 1: little bit of what the intelligence community is feeling right now. 1489 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:38,160 Speaker 1: I think that's a great observation. But there are those 1490 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:41,639 Speaker 1: clearly within the intelligence community. Whoever gave this to Devon Nunez, 1491 01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:45,320 Speaker 1: Sarah wanted him to know that there are good people 1492 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:48,080 Speaker 1: in the intelligence community that do not like what has 1493 01:23:48,120 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 1: been happening. Absolutely and and this is the reason why 1494 01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:55,120 Speaker 1: John and I were able to do these stories the 1495 01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:58,000 Speaker 1: last several weeks. I mean, there are people within law 1496 01:23:58,080 --> 01:24:01,120 Speaker 1: enforcement and within the intelligence can unity that want to 1497 01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 1: get the truth out there. They want us to stop. 1498 01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:06,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a violation of you know, constitutional 1499 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:10,040 Speaker 1: and civil rights if it appears this way, you know, 1500 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:15,120 Speaker 1: people's names being unmasked, Americans names being a masked, government officials. Uh, 1501 01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:18,720 Speaker 1: the possibility that this has all been politicized, but in 1502 01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:20,680 Speaker 1: such a way that it's not just like using a 1503 01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:24,879 Speaker 1: political idea that's out there, or talking about a political 1504 01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:27,720 Speaker 1: option something that's that's out in the public. This is 1505 01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:34,360 Speaker 1: about going into very highly classified communications records and using 1506 01:24:34,400 --> 01:24:38,560 Speaker 1: it against opponents if that ends up being the case. Um, 1507 01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:42,040 Speaker 1: and whoever has decided to leak these UH documents, I mean, 1508 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:45,280 Speaker 1: I believe that they might be the answer to all 1509 01:24:45,320 --> 01:24:50,560 Speaker 1: of it. Wow, Bill Benny. Last word. Well, first of all, UH, 1510 01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:53,840 Speaker 1: all of this UH minimization process. None of the data 1511 01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:57,160 Speaker 1: in the n s A databasis is minimized. It only 1512 01:24:57,200 --> 01:24:59,600 Speaker 1: gets minimized when somebody makes a query into it if 1513 01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 1: they're an to say, analyst for example with FBI and CIA. 1514 01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:05,040 Speaker 1: There's no there's no minimization process that I know of 1515 01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:08,559 Speaker 1: that goes on there. So that and and the numbers 1516 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 1: of people who are involved in looking at it are 1517 01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:13,000 Speaker 1: all the all the system administrators and all the programmers 1518 01:25:13,040 --> 01:25:14,880 Speaker 1: at n s A. I mean, that's that must be 1519 01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:17,599 Speaker 1: several thousand people. All Right, I gotta I'm gonna have 1520 01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:20,120 Speaker 1: to run.

This is a danger I've been pointing to. 1559 01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:37,320 Speaker 1: It's not a spin, it's not a win. It is 1560 01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 1: a clinical diagnosis of a pathological movement that is sweeping 1561 01:27:46,120 --> 01:27:48,920 Speaker 1: our area. But we'll soon come to a theater near you. 1562 01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 1: It has to be stopped now, all right, let's get 1563 01:27:52,479 --> 01:27:55,559 Speaker 1: to our busy telephones here as we say hi to 1564 01:27:56,040 --> 01:27:58,479 Speaker 1: is it Charlotte is in Oregon? Charlotte, how are you 1565 01:27:58,520 --> 01:28:02,360 Speaker 1: glad you called? Yes? Hello, Sean, thank you for taking 1566 01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:06,439 Speaker 1: my call. Um. On Tuesday, I heard Ann Coulter on 1567 01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:10,120 Speaker 1: your program talking about the different Christian health care ministries. 1568 01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:13,920 Speaker 1: Is that correct, yes, ma'am. And so I just wanted 1569 01:28:13,920 --> 01:28:15,800 Speaker 1: to let you know that in two thousand eleven, my 1570 01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:18,519 Speaker 1: husband and I joined one of those and had not 1571 01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:21,840 Speaker 1: needed to use it. And umbout. A year ago I 1572 01:28:21,920 --> 01:28:26,160 Speaker 1: was diagnosed with cancer and I'm just two months out. 1573 01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:29,320 Speaker 1: Of all my treatments now, um, every cent of it 1574 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:33,880 Speaker 1: was paid for. UM. The great thing, no pre authorization 1575 01:28:34,080 --> 01:28:38,160 Speaker 1: was needed because it's not traditional insurance. UM. So I 1576 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:41,040 Speaker 1: was able to have my surgery immediately. My first treatment 1577 01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:45,160 Speaker 1: was two days after seeing the doctor. UM. It's that's 1578 01:28:45,160 --> 01:28:48,519 Speaker 1: really important for cancer patients or people with life threatening 1579 01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:52,880 Speaker 1: things to be able to get prompt medical attention. And 1580 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:56,479 Speaker 1: I am so glad that that's what I have for insurance. Well, 1581 01:28:56,600 --> 01:28:58,840 Speaker 1: I can tell you that all of these cooperatives like 1582 01:28:58,960 --> 01:29:02,559 Speaker 1: Atlas m D in Wichita, Kansas and dr umber And 1583 01:29:02,760 --> 01:29:06,960 Speaker 1: you're right, you know, Christian Healthcare, other cooperatives, they seem 1584 01:29:07,040 --> 01:29:09,800 Speaker 1: to be working the best now as I understand it. 1585 01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:13,439 Speaker 1: We were asking the Health and Human Services Secretary earlier 1586 01:29:13,479 --> 01:29:15,920 Speaker 1: in the program today, you know, all right, does this 1587 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:18,960 Speaker 1: legislation allow for all of these new paradigms and his 1588 01:29:19,040 --> 01:29:22,920 Speaker 1: answers absolutely positively. Yes. You know, part of going the 1589 01:29:22,920 --> 01:29:25,360 Speaker 1: free market route, which is what we conservatives have been 1590 01:29:25,400 --> 01:29:28,400 Speaker 1: saying from the beginning. The great blessing of it is 1591 01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:32,040 Speaker 1: all of these new models then begin to pop up 1592 01:29:32,080 --> 01:29:36,240 Speaker 1: and exist, and they catered to individual communities, They catered 1593 01:29:36,240 --> 01:29:40,080 Speaker 1: to individual needs. They allow the powers of groups to 1594 01:29:40,240 --> 01:29:44,639 Speaker 1: buy at reduced rates and negotiate more care for less 1595 01:29:44,680 --> 01:29:47,839 Speaker 1: money than they otherwise would get. And that's the blessing 1596 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:52,560 Speaker 1: of the free market. And you're you know that's it. Yeah, absolutely, 1597 01:29:53,200 --> 01:29:56,280 Speaker 1: um absolutely, I didn't have to worry about that part 1598 01:29:56,360 --> 01:29:58,200 Speaker 1: of it at all. Yeah, all right, good for you, 1599 01:29:58,240 --> 01:29:59,439 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of that's going to come 1600 01:29:59,439 --> 01:30:01,640 Speaker 1: out of it. I appreciate it. Thank you so much. 1601 01:30:01,720 --> 01:30:04,760 Speaker 1: Charlotte eight nine for one.

My name is 1603 01:30:11,320 --> 01:30:13,280 Speaker 1: Justin in North Dakota, and so I under speaking to 1604 01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:17,719 Speaker 1: Mr Hannity. Um. I believe that if they were too, 1605 01:30:19,280 --> 01:30:23,200 Speaker 1: have the health care providers show a basic list of costs, 1606 01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:30,360 Speaker 1: who could totally changed the system around. Listen, what's the matter? 1607 01:30:30,439 --> 01:30:32,800 Speaker 1: You like? You wanna treadmill? You're running up stairs? What 1608 01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:36,240 Speaker 1: are you doing here? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I'm I'm working. 1609 01:30:36,280 --> 01:30:37,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry about that. Now, that's all right, no worries. 1610 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:39,640 Speaker 1: I used to call talk radio shows when I was 1611 01:30:39,680 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 1: working too. All right, well, so say it again, Okay. 1612 01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:47,800 Speaker 1: I believe that if they, if they are too have 1613 01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:51,960 Speaker 1: the healthcare providers show a basic list of their costs 1614 01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:56,240 Speaker 1: for services, that it would revolutionize the industry because they 1615 01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:59,759 Speaker 1: would they would be forced to make their money in volume, 1616 01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:03,880 Speaker 1: and they would so their systems would be streamlined, which, 1617 01:31:04,760 --> 01:31:06,840 Speaker 1: since costs would be lord, more people would come in 1618 01:31:07,680 --> 01:31:13,840 Speaker 1: and uh. That, combined with the with the policies of 1619 01:31:13,880 --> 01:31:17,040 Speaker 1: the Good Doctor that was on yesterday, I believe would 1620 01:31:17,960 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 1: do a great deal for the health care industry. Yeah. Look, 1621 01:31:21,160 --> 01:31:22,320 Speaker 1: I think you're making a lot of I hear what 1622 01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:25,240 Speaker 1: you're saying. Look, you're cracking me up, though, because you're 1623 01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:28,200 Speaker 1: reminded me. I used to call radio shows from the 1624 01:31:28,439 --> 01:31:31,040 Speaker 1: forty ft up in the air on the ladder, hanging 1625 01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:33,000 Speaker 1: from the ladder, and it was ridiculous. And hang on, 1626 01:31:33,040 --> 01:31:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm on the ladder here, whoa you know, hang on, 1627 01:31:35,479 --> 01:31:39,479 Speaker 1: I'll be right there. Um. Look that I'm gonna repeat 1628 01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:40,960 Speaker 1: what I said to the last caller, and that is 1629 01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:46,320 Speaker 1: that new free market capital Look, capitalism works. What does 1630 01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:50,519 Speaker 1: capitalism do? You have? You have supply and demand, your 1631 01:31:50,520 --> 01:31:53,880 Speaker 1: cursed cross, and it dictates the price. Okay, everybody needs healthcare, 1632 01:31:53,960 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 1: so there's a big demand for healthcare, all right, then 1633 01:31:56,360 --> 01:31:59,360 Speaker 1: you have healthcare providers. When you have free markets and 1634 01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:01,479 Speaker 1: you don't have endates and you don't have government top 1635 01:32:01,520 --> 01:32:05,960 Speaker 1: down um um plans that you have to choose from, well, 1636 01:32:06,000 --> 01:32:08,519 Speaker 1: then that means you're gonna pick the plan that best 1637 01:32:08,760 --> 01:32:12,880 Speaker 1: works for you. If it's a local community cooperative and 1638 01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:17,200 Speaker 1: it's you know what, whatever it happens to be. You know, 1639 01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:19,680 Speaker 1: if I'm a young person, I'm getting catastrophic insurance that 1640 01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:21,800 Speaker 1: allows me to get one check up a year, and 1641 01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:24,240 Speaker 1: then if I have a heart attack, getting a bad accident, 1642 01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:29,719 Speaker 1: or if I get cancer, god forbid, I'm covered that's insurance. Okay, 1643 01:32:29,760 --> 01:32:32,480 Speaker 1: but if you want, you know, if you need stitches, 1644 01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:34,600 Speaker 1: you may have to pay that out of pocket. But 1645 01:32:34,680 --> 01:32:37,280 Speaker 1: if you're part of a co op like Dr Rumber's 1646 01:32:37,320 --> 01:32:40,600 Speaker 1: Atlas m D, then okay, then that's all covered. You 1647 01:32:40,600 --> 01:32:44,679 Speaker 1: have unlimited care. That makes sense. They never have to Yeah, 1648 01:32:44,720 --> 01:32:47,240 Speaker 1: but if the healthcare industry never has to eliminate what 1649 01:32:47,320 --> 01:32:49,880 Speaker 1: they're going to charge you beforehand, how can they how 1650 01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:53,679 Speaker 1: can they work the system from a basic cost point 1651 01:32:53,680 --> 01:32:57,000 Speaker 1: of view?

He sees 1681 01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:25,840 Speaker 1: something so incredible that he has to run straight to 1682 01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:29,840 Speaker 1: the president. Then he's I mean, he comes out. It's inappropriate. 1683 01:34:30,040 --> 01:34:32,360 Speaker 1: That's the word that he says, right, which to me 1684 01:34:32,640 --> 01:34:36,200 Speaker 1: only can connotate that there's some type of subterfuge going on. 1685 01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:38,920 Speaker 1: That's all I see. It's got nothing to do with Russia. 1686 01:34:39,320 --> 01:34:41,880 Speaker 1: There is no Russian story. You've only proven that over 1687 01:34:41,920 --> 01:34:46,240 Speaker 1: and over again. Right, And then we've got Adam Shiff 1688 01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:49,080 Speaker 1: who drives me crazy. I mean, I can barely watch 1689 01:34:49,160 --> 01:34:51,719 Speaker 1: the guy. It's truly, it's like, honestly, like a flat 1690 01:34:51,800 --> 01:34:54,120 Speaker 1: a little like a fly that's swatting her eyes want slatting. 1691 01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:57,280 Speaker 1: We just kind of saying the same crap every time 1692 01:34:57,360 --> 01:35:01,160 Speaker 1: gets out there and publicly says and can him Well, 1693 01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:04,000 Speaker 1: he's come out, and this now means that we can't 1694 01:35:04,040 --> 01:35:07,519 Speaker 1: have an investigation. It's fair at least been the exact 1695 01:35:07,600 --> 01:35:10,360 Speaker 1: same thing. He ran to the microphone in the exact 1696 01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:13,400 Speaker 1: same way, saying, well, he's inappropriate and he hasn't shown 1697 01:35:13,439 --> 01:35:15,760 Speaker 1: us this information. Well, why do you think that he 1698 01:35:15,800 --> 01:35:19,719 Speaker 1: didn't show the information? Such a good point of course, Listen, 1699 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:22,519 Speaker 1: I think what's gonna happen is I as I've been predicting. 1700 01:35:22,560 --> 01:35:24,799 Speaker 1: I think all this information is going to be accumulate 1701 01:35:24,840 --> 01:35:27,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna learn more and more how political all of 1702 01:35:27,400 --> 01:35:30,160 Speaker 1: this Russia Russia, Russia Russia stuff is. And what we're 1703 01:35:30,200 --> 01:35:34,559 Speaker 1: gonna learn is that there are highly sourced, top level 1704 01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:41,479 Speaker 1: Obama holdover sympathizing agenda sympathizing ideologues that are purposely trying 1705 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:45,040 Speaker 1: to hurt the current president. That's where this is gonna end. 1706 01:35:45,360 --> 01:35:47,760 Speaker 1: There's also, I suggest to you too, this is going 1707 01:35:47,800 --> 01:35:51,439 Speaker 1: to end with people going to jail for violating the 1708 01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:56,560 Speaker 1: law and leaking intelligence information. There's going to be prosecutions 1709 01:35:56,560 --> 01:35:59,240 Speaker 1: at the end of this. I also believe there's gonna 1710 01:35:59,280 --> 01:36:02,920 Speaker 1: be political connections to all of this, and I think 1711 01:36:02,960 --> 01:36:06,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna go very high up in the intelligence community. 1712 01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:09,280 Speaker 1: I personally do not believe it's the rank and final 1713 01:36:09,439 --> 01:36:13,240 Speaker 1: intelligence officer that works hard every day to protect our 1714 01:36:13,280 --> 01:36:16,360 Speaker 1: country that is involved in this. We'll find out how 1715 01:36:16,640 --> 01:36:19,640 Speaker 1: how high up the deep state goes, and at the 1716 01:36:19,760 --> 01:36:22,479 Speaker 1: end of the day, if it is what I think 1717 01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:25,559 Speaker 1: it is, this may be the biggest scandal in American 1718 01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:28,919 Speaker 1: history when it's all said and done. It has the potential. 1719 01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:31,680 Speaker 1: I can tell you that. All Right, Christy is in 1720 01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:34,479 Speaker 1: Mobile in Alabama. Christie, Hi, how are you and We're 1721 01:36:34,520 --> 01:36:37,840 Speaker 1: glad you you called hi. How are you doing, Shine, 1722 01:36:37,880 --> 01:36:41,799 Speaker 1: I'm good? How are you? I'm doing great? Um. Actually, 1723 01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:46,640 Speaker 1: what I feel is the whole Russia collusion is just 1724 01:36:46,720 --> 01:36:49,840 Speaker 1: smoking mirrors on behalf of the Democrats. You know the 1725 01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:52,240 Speaker 1: old saying of when you're pointing your finger at someone, 1726 01:36:52,280 --> 01:36:54,880 Speaker 1: you have three more pointing back at you. We really 1727 01:36:54,880 --> 01:36:57,040 Speaker 1: need to find out what those other three fingers are 1728 01:36:57,040 --> 01:36:59,200 Speaker 1: pointing back at. What is it they're trying to cover 1729 01:36:59,320 --> 01:37:02,200 Speaker 1: up by continue newly yelling, Oh, it's collusion with Russia 1730 01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:05,680 Speaker 1: on behalf of Trump. Well, there's no evidence of it. 1731 01:37:05,800 --> 01:37:08,839 Speaker 1: James Clapper said it this week, we had Admiral Rodgers 1732 01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:11,559 Speaker 1: say it, and we had James Colemey say it. So 1733 01:37:11,760 --> 01:37:14,720 Speaker 1: you know the fact that the media fixates, focuses, and 1734 01:37:14,720 --> 01:37:17,800 Speaker 1: and is obsessed with it, Well, they're just advancing their 1735 01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:21,840 Speaker 1: agenda exactly. And that's a problem that I've had with 1736 01:37:21,880 --> 01:37:26,000 Speaker 1: some of my um liberal and Democratic friends. They all 1737 01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:29,800 Speaker 1: they watch is CNNIMOUSNBC, and Fought is the devil in 1738 01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:33,560 Speaker 1: their view. Um, it's constantly oh, well, you know, he 1739 01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:37,360 Speaker 1: must be colluding with Russia or they wouldn't continue to investigate. 1740 01:37:37,880 --> 01:37:41,519 Speaker 1: But for me, It's as if the Democrats are trying 1741 01:37:41,520 --> 01:37:46,160 Speaker 1: to cover up other issues that they have by saying Russia, Russia, Russia. 1742 01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:48,960 Speaker 1: Trump is colluding with Russia and pulling back, you know, 1743 01:37:49,760 --> 01:37:53,000 Speaker 1: um from ten years ago, over ten years ago, you 1744 01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:57,200 Speaker 1: know manipor worked for a company in Russia's just it's 1745 01:37:57,200 --> 01:38:00,639 Speaker 1: a constant bash of you know, let's talk about Russian. 1746 01:38:00,720 --> 01:38:04,599 Speaker 1: It's never, you know, well, the Democrats have been doing 1747 01:38:04,640 --> 01:38:07,439 Speaker 1: things with Russia, that Iranian deal and so on and 1748 01:38:07,479 --> 01:38:10,559 Speaker 1: so forth. It's never let's look at what's happened with 1749 01:38:10,680 --> 01:38:14,280 Speaker 1: Democratic side. It's constantly Will Trump must be getting something 1750 01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:17,679 Speaker 1: out of Putin in order to have won the election. 1751 01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:19,559 Speaker 1: What the funny thing is, when you talk to Trump, 1752 01:38:19,600 --> 01:38:22,840 Speaker 1: he'll tell you he's never talked to Putin. Never, He's 1753 01:38:22,840 --> 01:38:25,080 Speaker 1: never had a conversation with the guy. So why is 1754 01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:29,840 Speaker 1: that even an issue? Anyway?

I'm kind of mad at 1760 01:38:45,479 --> 01:38:50,160 Speaker 1: Trump for not taking the prime opportunity to call out 1761 01:38:50,200 --> 01:38:53,240 Speaker 1: The New York Times at all for being fake news 1762 01:38:54,120 --> 01:38:59,200 Speaker 1: after he tweeted, excuse me, after he tweeted about being surveilled, 1763 01:38:59,200 --> 01:39:01,320 Speaker 1: and they all screen. You have no proof, You have 1764 01:39:01,360 --> 01:39:04,200 Speaker 1: no proof. He could have just turned around and said, 1765 01:39:04,560 --> 01:39:06,760 Speaker 1: wait a minute, you're the ones who said I was 1766 01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:10,920 Speaker 1: wire tapped. Well, actually he has said that, but but they, 1767 01:39:11,200 --> 01:39:13,840 Speaker 1: of course they're not going to look if it ends 1768 01:39:13,880 --> 01:39:17,439 Speaker 1: up on page A one Trump wire tapped on January twenty, 1769 01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:21,240 Speaker 1: if they ever ever did a correction, which is not 1770 01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:23,599 Speaker 1: gonna happen, why would they ever do that, because again, 1771 01:39:23,680 --> 01:39:28,160 Speaker 1: they're they're not they're basically state run propaganda media.

Oh, 1775 01:39:41,840 --> 01:39:44,040 Speaker 1: they won't do a correction.
