And you know, 122 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: something that I've been reading and I've seen a lot 123 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: of people point this out, is the story of the 124 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: brocasters and the brocasters you're Shane Gillis's like last Night 125 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: at the SP's making fun of Epstein. Shane Gillis also 126 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: recently said on his podcast that the reason that Trump 127 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: won't release the Epstein files, in his view, is that 128 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: Trump is in the Epstein file. So Shane Gellis said 129 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: that on his podcast, and then Theovaughn said, you know, 130 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: you know, basically re upped the clip of Jay Vance 131 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: from twenty twenty four back in October their own interview 132 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: saying what changed? Why aren't these files coming out? And 133 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: you've also seen Andrew Schultz, someone who wasn't really on 134 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: the Trump train, but at least one of these brocasters 135 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: who has a massive audience saying that not only does 136 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: he not support Trump anymore, he regrets it and he's 137 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: now supporting Zorn mon Dami. 138 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: So Rich, let me. 139 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: Ask you about this, these brocaster types. Does it make 140 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: sense Does it make sense that that we should view them? 141 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: Are they part of the liberal establishment or we should 142 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: should we view them as sort of a proxy for 143 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: those low prop independent votes that you and I were 144 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: talking about so much last year, specifically in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, 145 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: in Michigan. By the way, Shane Gillis he's from the 146 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: exact same place in Pennsylvania that I'm from, re least 147 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: he came up in the Philadelphia area. So Mike, I 148 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: think I think we know a little bit about these 149 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: guys because we're like from there, Rich floors giars. 150 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 3: Well and thanks as always for having me on Jack. 151 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 11: But I would point out that they're not alone, right 152 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 11: So there there, you know people that may not traditionally 153 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 11: be seen as maga, but certainly there were a lot 154 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 11: of og maga types who also had their own questions 155 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 11: and there's a reason why these people do appeal to 156 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 11: certain segment, some certain audiences. So to pretend like they 157 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 11: don't mean anything is of course just foolish. 158 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 3: I mean the podcaster. 159 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 11: Crossover between MAGA and certain liberals that even supported Trump 160 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 11: and independence and are going all the way down to 161 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 11: Joe Rogan, right, the biggest name out there. 162 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 3: They without a doubt beat out. 163 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 11: The legacy media establishment in the narrative war with the 164 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 11: twenty twenty four election. Even legacy media knows that, right, 165 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 11: so to now just dismiss them. Oh and by the way, 166 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 11: one of them, who is a mutual friend of ours, 167 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 11: probably did more to get out the vote in a 168 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 11: certain battleground state and a couple, but one particularly than 169 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 11: the RNC has ever done. He had to take his 170 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 11: own organization and turn it into a get out the 171 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 11: vote effort because the RNC is absolutely incompetent in doing that, 172 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 11: targeting low propensity voters and getting them out. They are 173 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 11: a proxy for them, of course, Jack, And you know 174 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 11: the answer to that question. There is a reason why 175 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 11: these disconnected and disaffected voters turn to alternative sources of 176 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 11: information and alternative sources of news outside of the legacy 177 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 11: media establishment, and it's because that's what fits their profile. 178 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 11: They deeply distrust institutions, They deeply distrust the political process, 179 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 11: the halls of. 180 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 3: Power in general. 181 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 11: And they are the voters that Republicans need to turn 182 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 11: electorates into something different, especially now that they have the 183 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 11: low propensity vote. And that's something that somebody, everybody, everybody 184 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 11: is missing. This will not be twenty ten or twenty 185 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 11: fourteen anymore. In fact, we already know that. Look what 186 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 11: happened in eighteen before the redistricting of the map for 187 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 11: all of those people who are passing around their cute 188 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 11: little RCP before and after averages with the last couple 189 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 11: of cycles, eighteen was a completely different congressional map. 190 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 3: Jack. And now we have twenty two and we have 191 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 3: twenty four. 192 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 11: We can look at they already ran behind Donald Trump 193 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 11: among these voters, and they have a very difficult time 194 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 11: getting them out without him on the ballot. It was 195 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 11: their core and sole priority to bring these voters permanently 196 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 11: into the fold. And that is the cause for concern 197 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 11: that some people like myself and others are trying to 198 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 11: alert people up. 199 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 3: Now, so that's when you're talking about this. 200 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: No, wait a minute, because I just saw CNN and 201 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: CNN says Trump's numbers are way up with GOP. So 202 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 1: how can they be up with GOP if they're down 203 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: with independence? How does it make any sense? 204 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 5: Rich? 205 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 6: All right? 206 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 11: First of all, I mean, if you're a Trump supporter 207 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 11: and you are now reducing yourself to citing a Quinnipiac 208 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 11: or CNN poll and a segment by Harry Enton, you 209 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 11: might have lost objectivity. 210 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 3: The pollsters who actually. 211 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 11: Got the election correctly and have been getting elections correct 212 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 11: this is not a one off, have been getting elections correctly. 213 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 3: All see the same thing. We all see the same thing. 214 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 3: At big mistake people are making. 215 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 5: Number one. 216 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 11: First of all, it's not true that Trump is going 217 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 11: up show me this strongly for a somewhat disapproved rating 218 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 11: and a versus approve among those different those different partisan 219 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 11: identifying groups. 220 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 3: And the reason why they're not showing that is. 221 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 11: Because we can show you at ours also tell us, 222 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 11: which is that strong disapproval has fallen from sixty eight 223 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 11: percent to fifty three percent. 224 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 3: Some of them have moved into somewhat approved. 225 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 11: But the idea that a one or two point increase 226 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 11: is something to jump up and down for joy about 227 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 11: is laughable. It's this statistical it's this statistically insignificant difference 228 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 11: from their last pull. If they would have showed you 229 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,439 Speaker 11: the difference between strongly and somewhat approved, I can guarantee 230 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 11: you that a huge chunk from strongly approved shifted over 231 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 11: to somewat and some of that somewhat shifted over to 232 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 11: somewhat disapprove. 233 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 3: All right, And the second problem. 234 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 11: With that analysis is that it's not just about partisan 235 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 11: identified Republicans. That's the key with Trump, That's what made 236 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 11: him different than other Republican candidates. Base is not just 237 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 11: Republican identifying MAGA doesn't mean Republican. The two things are 238 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 11: not mutually exclusive and equal. MAGA is Republican, of course, 239 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 11: and it's majority Republican, but it also includes a segment 240 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 11: of the independent votes, specifically one that says that they 241 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 11: have not when we ask them, do you have more 242 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 11: in common with the Republicans Democrats? And we've been over 243 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 11: this on your show a million times, Jack, they're the 244 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 11: ones who say that I have little in a little 245 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 11: in common with either party. 246 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 3: And that's the number that you have to watch. 247 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 11: I mean, if you're jumping up and down for joy 248 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 11: because his Republican approval rating went up one point two 249 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 11: points without considering all of that, while his independent number 250 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 11: is negative twenty. Then again, you might have lost objectivity 251 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 11: or you may be coping. It's there two things can 252 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 11: be true at once. You can celebrate the achievements the 253 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 11: president made and recognize the mishandling of certain things. And 254 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 11: I've seen this movie before, Jack, so of you in 255 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 11: the first ministry. Let me if you have any criticism whatsoever. 256 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 11: You know, people want to to try to like, you know, 257 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 11: browbeat people, you know, browbeat you. And then we watched that, 258 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 11: you know, we watched that devolve into things that ultimately 259 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 11: did harm his presidency. And that's why so many of 260 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,479 Speaker 11: his voters now are upset. It's like they have PTSD 261 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 11: and there it's not that their support for him is 262 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 11: is in question. It's that they they legitimately want to 263 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 11: see him to succeed, so they're worried about any of 264 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 11: what they have seen these things. 265 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 3: You can't blame them. 266 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: We're coming up with a quick quick break here, want 267 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: to hold you over, and we've got this clip from 268 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: Carolyn Levitt. Then I'm going to play right after the break, 269 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: Human Events Daily Bill Marcus Boyce. 270 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 4: Today. You know that you talk about influencers. These are 271 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 4: influences and they're friends of mine. 272 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 12: Jack Jack. 273 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: All right, Jack Sober Career are back Human Events Daily. 274 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: All right, folks, this is a clip that just played recently. 275 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: Caroline Levitt there in the press briefing of the White House, 276 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: gets asked a question about special prosecutor on Jeffrey Epstein. 277 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: Here's the official word from the White House. 278 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 13: Ohad, thank you, No, I call on Charlie, but Deanna, 279 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 13: you can go home. 280 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 5: To go ahead. 281 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 14: The President said that he floated the idea of a 282 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 14: special prosecutor in the Epstein case. Can you confirm that, 283 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 14: and does he has he asked the Attorney General to 284 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 14: do this, to appoint a special prosecutor. 285 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 5: To look it over. 286 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 13: Well, the idea was floated from someone in the media 287 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 13: to the president. The President would not recommend a special 288 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 13: prosecutor in the Epstein case. That's how he feels. And 289 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 13: as for his discussions with the Attorney General, I'm not sure, deannaure, 290 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 13: thank you so much. 291 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: Okay, So, no special prosecutor on Epstein. There was a 292 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: report yesterday that President Trump was considering this, but there's 293 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: the official word from the White House. I want to 294 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: get Richard Barrison here. Richard, I know that you know 295 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: you and I were on air when this happened. Can 296 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: I get your just snap response to that. 297 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 11: I just think, you know, then the the clip from 298 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 11: John Solomon show, you know, just the News yesterday did 299 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 11: get a lot of supporters excited that there would be 300 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 11: a special prosecutor. And so this is again the problem 301 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 11: is the mixed message that's coming. I think he should 302 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 11: have just come out from the jump and said, look, 303 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 11: Democrats had these files, and you know how I personally 304 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 11: feel about this, Jack, I think it was really naive 305 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 11: to believe that the Komis and the you know, the 306 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 11: the Obama administration people to buy him in stration people 307 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 11: would ever have left the integrity of these files intact right, 308 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 11: so that if it would have been done and over with, 309 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 11: if from the beginning the administration and the President would 310 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 11: have just simply taken the stance. Look, guys, these are 311 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 11: the same scumbags who did me dirty with the Russia 312 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 11: collusion hoax. I'm going to need some time to make 313 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 11: sure that we don't run any people through the mud 314 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 11: unnecessarily here. You know, we'll see what we can do 315 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 11: with it, but we're still looking at it. And I'm 316 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 11: telling you, we could have rode that to the end 317 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 11: of his term and it wouldn't have been that huge 318 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 11: of a deal, but it became a big deal because 319 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 11: of how it was handled. And it's a proxy. I mean, 320 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 11: this is what I think a lot of people on understanding. 321 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 11: If we poll people and we ask them, what's your 322 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 11: most important issue, few people are going to tell us 323 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 11: Jack that, you know, the Epstein files are their number 324 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 11: one issue. You know, they always say things like the 325 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 11: economy and inflation and immigration. But in the twenty twenty 326 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 11: four election, unaccountability in government was a huge, huge issue, 327 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 11: and we would see it and manifest and phrases like 328 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 11: threats to democracy. Right, And that's why he actually beat 329 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 11: Kamala Harris, after all of the talk about January sixth, 330 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 11: he actually beat Kamala Harris among voters who said that 331 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 11: threats to democracy was the number one issue because the 332 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 11: psyche of what it meant to them had changed, right, 333 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 11: the window had shifted. It no longer meant January sixth, 334 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 11: right and Republican or rightling threats to democracy. It meant 335 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 11: this ruling class abusing power, getting away with things, weaponizing 336 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 11: the Justice Department, you know, crippling government with corruption, that's 337 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 11: what it meant to those voters. 338 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 3: So it serves as a proxy issue. 339 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 11: In that and I just don't think that people fully 340 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 11: appreciated that. 341 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 3: And here we are now. 342 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: So that being said, here we are now just your 343 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: your immediate response, not necessarily from a polling perspective, but 344 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: I guess just from you know, a comm's perspective or 345 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: a peer perspective. 346 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, the story, as. 347 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: You say, you know, people were very excited about this 348 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: John Salmon and report yesterday that just the news and 349 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,239 Speaker 1: now to hear and the President certainly seemed like he 350 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: was open to it in that interview, but then he 351 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: he denied it later in an event at the White House. 352 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 1: And now you hear this unequivocal, you know, basically just 353 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 1: shut down from the press secretary. Do you think this 354 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: is the kind of thing that's going to make the 355 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: story go away or is this going to galvanize people? 356 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 5: Uh? 357 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 11: No, I mean I don't think it's going to go away. 358 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,199 Speaker 11: I think it's going to be a problem. And I 359 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 11: get the President's frustration. He's thinking from the perspective, Jack, 360 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 11: look at how much I've done right, and you know, 361 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 11: we got the big beautiful bill through we and I 362 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 11: know that people were mocking it, but actually the the 363 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 11: cane sugar and Coca Cola's that's a huge win politically, 364 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 11: Maha is a big deal. 365 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 3: People underestimate it. 366 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 11: So I get his frustration because he has so many 367 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 11: accomplishments under his belt, but that doesn't take away from 368 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 11: the mixed metic. If you want people to celebrate those accomplishments, 369 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 11: then you can't do things on you know, that step 370 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 11: on those accomplishments. And that's been going on for a 371 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 11: number of weeks. In our numbers. It's not just you know, 372 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 11: the Epstein files are not alone here. This is like 373 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 11: a culmination of you know, the last month of people 374 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 11: starting to question things and starting to you know, have 375 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 11: some have some problems. And I don't think they got 376 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 11: the time to get the the win, the honeymoon, the 377 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 11: celebration from when the big beautiful bill you know, got passed. 378 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,239 Speaker 3: Into now another issue. And what do I mean by that? 379 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 11: I mean it's this started with Iran eighteen to twenty 380 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 11: year old support for Donald Trump collapsed when he bombed 381 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 11: Iron and. 382 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 3: With all we were talking about is approval rating before. 383 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,719 Speaker 11: It's interesting because we call our show inside the numbers 384 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 11: for a reason. It matters beyond just the headline spin 385 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 11: in the narrative. The only reason that his approval rating 386 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 11: did not fall more in our pulling in in others 387 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 11: is because it's being that decline and a decline among 388 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 11: Hispanic men and other groups that were core Trump groups 389 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 11: that he brought into the fold that was offset by 390 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 11: educated voters who were voting for by double digits for 391 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 11: Democrats in the in the upcoming midterm elections anyway, So 392 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 11: we have actually seen this happen before. When he made 393 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 11: the decision in the early days of the lockdowns to 394 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 11: listen to, you know, the advice of advisors like Debi 395 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 11: and Fauci. Right, his approval rating with these voters, they 396 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 11: increased when he did launch attacks on agri chemical sites 397 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 11: and the way we saw those voters also increase, but 398 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 11: his core vote doesn't like it and declined. 399 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 3: And I'm gonna and that's the dangerous. 400 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to throw up this poll that we have 401 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 1: from Democracy Institute regarding voters agree or disagree on the 402 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: release of the Epstein list, and I know you've seen 403 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: similar numbers to that and it really gets into those 404 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 1: Trump twenty twenty four voters sixty seven percent disagree, Harris 405 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four voters fifty eight percent disagree. This is 406 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: the big one. I think new voters twenty twenty four 407 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: seventy two percent disagree, twenty six percent agree. And those 408 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 1: are your new voters. Then independents a little bit smaller there, 409 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: but still at sixty percent disagree with this, those new 410 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: voters and working class voters at seventy two percent. I mean, 411 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: that's what you're going to need to get, by the way. 412 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: By the way, there are plenty of ways to get 413 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 1: these voters on side, by the way, but this is 414 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: definitely something that just it's going to pile up in 415 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: terms of the disagreement out there among working class voters, 416 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: independent voters. 417 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 11: There are ways to get them back, but brownbeating is 418 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 11: not one of them. 419 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 3: And that's this has to be recognized and addressed. 420 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 11: Voters don't like to be lectured, they don't like to 421 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 11: be talked down to, and they don't like to be insulted. 422 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 11: That is the magic of the Trump candidacy turned into presidency. 423 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 3: No matter what he. 424 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 11: Did, the you know, media would always sayh we loot 425 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 11: this and voters would not take them literally and they 426 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 11: would say, you know what, maybe he didn't use the 427 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 11: right choice of words, but he wasn't bsing us, right, 428 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,360 Speaker 11: he wasn't. He wasn't assaulting our intelligence, and he certainly 429 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 11: wasn't attacking us. I mean, that's the line some of 430 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 11: his surrogates are now walking up to. That's the real danger. 431 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 11: And they have to run back, Jack, because there are 432 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 11: ways to get it people. 433 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 3: To get it back. 434 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 1: Remember, they are the problems dot com locals, people's plant 435 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: it dot right back Jack, Solly. 436 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 4: Oh, then you're talking about influencers. These are influences. 437 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 5: Hey, Jack, where's Jack? Where's Jack Worthy? Jack? I want 438 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 5: to see you. 439 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 4: Great job, Jack, thank you, what a job you do. 440 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 4: You know, we have an incredible thing. 441 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 5: We're always talking about the fake. 442 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 4: News and the band, but we have guys, and these 443 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 4: are the guys who are forgetting policies. 444 00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 15: To every politician and bureaucrat who thought they could moms 445 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 15: and dads into submission to the detriment of their children. 446 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 5: You picked the wrong fight. 447 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,439 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's right. 448 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 15: Parents don't surrender their rights at the school doors. They 449 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,880 Speaker 15: don't answer to school boards, and they certainly don't take 450 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 15: marching orders from a weaponized Department of Justice. President Trump 451 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,120 Speaker 15: has stood with these parents from day one, and we 452 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 15: stand with him, and I stand with these. 453 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 1: Parents, all right, Jack Psovic Here we are back live 454 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: Human Events Daily. Just saw that incredible press conference there 455 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: with Congressman Andy Biggs Washington, DC. That was yesterday, But 456 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: we've got the great Sam Sorbo now joining us. She 457 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 1: was there at the press conference. Sam, how are you 458 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 1: really good? 459 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 16: It was such a great day yesterday, unbelievable. It was hot, 460 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 16: but you can't tell that on the camera. And we 461 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 16: had Andy Biggs there instead of Andy Ogles, who sponsored 462 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 16: the conference but was unable to get there because of 463 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 16: plain trouble. Andy Biggs filled in and he did such 464 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 16: a fantastic job. And then of course Kelly Walker, my partner, 465 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 16: spoke and we had several parents who have been beaten 466 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 16: down by their own governments, which is what this is 467 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 16: all about. It's parents demanding justice, alliance, and we're asking 468 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 16: for an executive order from the Commander in Chief or 469 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 16: the person I like to refer to as the President 470 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 16: in Chief, because we need to make parents in great 471 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 16: again in this nation. 472 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 5: Well, it's exactly that. 473 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: So walk us through the themes of the conference, the 474 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,439 Speaker 1: themes that we're getting out at the press conference that 475 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: was held yesterday, and also how this ties to the 476 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: recent Supreme Court hearing that just came down a couple 477 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: of weeks ago regarding parental rights. 478 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 16: Well, okay, so the Supreme Court hearing, I think you're 479 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 16: referring to the one that's a few days ago where 480 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 16: they said that he was the Donald was justified in 481 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 16: firing around fourteen hundred DOE employees. Now, the Department of 482 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 16: Education doesn't really have very much to do with the 483 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 16: actual education of children. If you want to compare that 484 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 16: and the challenge that was posed that rose to the 485 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 16: level of the Supreme Court with the Chicago public schools 486 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 16: who spent too much money on illegals and thus had 487 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 16: to fire fourteen hundred teachers, including special ed teachers, just 488 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 16: the other day. I think that that comparison is pretty stark. 489 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,120 Speaker 16: But what we're arguing is that because of Merrick Garland 490 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 16: and this letter that classified parents as domestic terrorists that 491 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 16: went out during COVID, and Merrick Garland then called on 492 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 16: the FBI to treat these parents as if they were 493 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 16: domestic terrorists that resulted in a catastrophic series of events 494 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 16: for several of these parents, who all they were doing 495 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 16: was trying to look out for their children, trying to 496 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 16: question some of the woke agenda that we have in 497 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 16: our school today, or some of the COVID mask policies 498 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 16: that were instituted in their schools that were actually adversely 499 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 16: affecting and in some cases really harming children. We have 500 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 16: one parent whose child was forced to wear a mask. 501 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 16: When he took the mask off and threw it in 502 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 16: the trash in the nurse's office, they made him fish 503 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 16: it out of the trash and put that mask back 504 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 16: on his face. So these things, and by the way, 505 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 16: then the parents were then targeted by their communities, by 506 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 16: their school boards, who called for their firing, called for 507 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 16: their businesses to be shut down, and so many of 508 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 16: these parents have been almost irreparably harmed. 509 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 5: They need some sort of restitution. 510 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 16: But bigger than that, Jack, this set a precedent in 511 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 16: our schools to consider parents expendable and disposable in terms 512 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 16: of the education of their children, and that's absolutely not true. 513 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 16: Parents are the number one indicator parental involvement is the 514 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 16: number one indicator of academic success for their kids. And 515 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 16: so we need parents more involved, not less involved. Schools 516 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,959 Speaker 16: that try to eliminate parents or sideline parents in the 517 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 16: conversation about their children's education, those places are actually seeking 518 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 16: the destruction of those children. 519 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 5: That is not what we do in the United States. 520 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 16: And I know that we're fortieth in the world of 521 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 16: forty developed nations for education. The easiest way to start 522 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 16: turning this around is to put parents back inside the schools, 523 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 16: inside the classrooms, inside the conversation about the education of 524 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:35,360 Speaker 16: their children. 525 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more and over here in we also 526 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: saw it. There was that mood case that came down 527 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: sort of the end of June regarding the LGBTQ themed 528 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: books and religious freedom concerns, because there was this group 529 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: of parents in Montgomery County parts or excuse the Mountcomber County, Maryland, 530 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: from Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. So that's why I think about 531 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: it's right outside Philly. You're a Pennsylvanian person, too, Am 532 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: I right? Am I right? Or am I wrong? About that? 533 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh. There you go. See, I know it. 534 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: I can always tell, I canoways tell. But this book 535 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: every Kuddy, Maryland. This right outside of DC where even 536 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: those parents, by the way, this is like the liberal 537 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: DC bubble. They were objecting because this LGBTQ information was 538 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: going to their kids, was going in at such a 539 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: level they didn't want it in there. Took it all 540 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: the way to the Supreme Court, by the way, mack mood. Yeah, 541 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: as you can imagine, these were not we're not Christian families, 542 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: many of them, by the way, Muslim, and she had 543 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: Muslim and Christian family saying we don't want this, We're 544 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: going to take this all the way up, We're going 545 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: to fight it, and they got it overturned, and the 546 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: Supreme Court actually did rule that parents' religious freedoms were 547 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: burdened by the school district's policy of requiring students to 548 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: engage with those books issued that preliminary injunction, meaning parents 549 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: can opt the kids out of those lessons. And this 550 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: was a six to three decision. There's going to be 551 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: obviously other cases involving this, but huge, huge win or 552 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: not just parental rights, but also for religious freedoms and 553 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: the intersection of those with the public education space. 554 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,479 Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean, I wish I could see it as 555 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 16: big a win, as many are trying to categorize it. 556 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 5: In fact, what it says is. 557 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 16: That they have the right to opt their children out, 558 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 16: but that that pedagogy, that gay and transgender pedagogy, will 559 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 16: in fact be taught in the schools, which then codifies 560 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 16: it as something that is valuable, even though it's rife 561 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 16: with lies. And so even though these parents can opt 562 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,959 Speaker 16: their children out, then what, in fact, I wrote an 563 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 16: obed about this, Then what so those children then become ostracized. 564 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 16: They don't have the information that the other children has 565 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 16: have whatever kind of information about gay sex or whatever 566 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 16: you want to call it, right, and so those children 567 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 16: then are integrated back into the classroom. And what are 568 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 16: we going to allow the children who saw them material 569 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 16: to then demonstrate the material for the children who were 570 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 16: opted out. I mean, for the parents who send their 571 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 16: children to this school for education to be forced to 572 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,719 Speaker 16: opt out of something that is so not educational is 573 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 16: a travesty, and I find it very sad. We ought 574 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 16: to get back to teaching truth in our schools, and 575 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 16: that includes traditional values, I'm sorry to say, because those 576 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 16: are time tested. 577 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 14: Well. 578 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: No, I think that's a great point, and you're right, 579 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 1: this obviously, isn't something that's going to be solved just 580 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: by parents continuing to be above so, and this is well, 581 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: you know, I've got you on about this as well, 582 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: So it's kind of a layup question. But so let's 583 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 1: say you are a parent out there and you're very 584 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: concerned about your kids being involved with this. Also, you're 585 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: just concerned with society in general and how we're raising 586 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: the next generation. What options are there for you to 587 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: take proactive steps so that your kid isn't you know, 588 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: they're not even entering into this cycle. 589 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 16: Well, of course, if you don't want them to enter 590 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 16: into the cycle, then you don't enroll them in school. 591 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 16: Of course, I'm a home educator, so I advocate for 592 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 16: children to be home with their parents. 593 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 5: And by the way, home is a generalized term. 594 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 16: I don't mean the children should stay inside the house 595 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 16: at all times with their parents. That's not how that works. 596 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 16: As a home educator, what I've discovered is that education 597 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 16: is a lot more organic than we are led to 598 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 16: believe by the people who make money running our schools. Right, 599 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 16: so we have been taught the school is education, where 600 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 16: actually that's not the case. Education happens a lot more 601 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 16: organically and in fact, school sometimes is actually an impediment 602 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 16: to education. So the easiest thing is to not enroll 603 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 16: your children. But then you know, barring that, get involved, 604 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 16: run for school board, be on. 605 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 5: The school board. 606 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 16: I actually have an initiative that I'm trying to put 607 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 16: through for school boards to be made up entirely of 608 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 16: parents of children in that school, and all school boards 609 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 16: to be local to every school because it ought to 610 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 16: be more locally managed. It should not be federally managed. 611 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 16: And that's what Trump is thankfully trying to do, is 612 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 16: to disengage the federal management of education and it should 613 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 16: barely be state managed. 614 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 12: It. 615 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 5: It's as simple as that. 616 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 1: By the way, I do want to play this clip 617 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: from Loudun County because we really do have to remember 618 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: how bad these things got. This was twenty twenty one, 619 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: so this was not even that long ago. 620 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 5: Today. 621 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: It's wrong too. 622 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 7: We're really induced. 623 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:32,760 Speaker 10: This happened. 624 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 5: So there you go. 625 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just four years ago, and you know, Sam, 626 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 1: let's look at it from from that perspective as well. 627 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 1: This is how bad it's gotten because we've completely abrogated 628 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: in this country parental rights to the rights of the 629 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: government in so many of these situations, and there you 630 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: go where this was a member. And for folks that 631 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 1: remember the the story Louden County, Virginia, this was a 632 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: man whose daughter was sexually assaulted in her high school 633 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 1: bathroom by a transgender student who had been passed from 634 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: another school. Apparently he had had another incident and he 635 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: was trying to speak, the school board told him not to, 636 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: and then he was forcefully arrested. 637 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 16: Right, So this, I mean, this has been going on 638 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 16: longer than we care to consider, frankly, but moving forward, 639 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 16: let's not just let bygones be bygones. The parents that 640 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 16: Parents Demanding Justice Alliance represents are people just like you 641 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 16: and me, parents of school children who have been injured 642 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 16: by their government. That is the thing that we have 643 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 16: to start with. And turning that around is to me 644 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 16: the most important thing. As a whole education advocate, I 645 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 16: know that the parental input is the most important thing 646 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 16: in a child's education, in a child's upbringing, And the 647 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 16: first step to turning this around to uplifting parents is 648 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 16: to acknowledge that the government mistreated their parents and to 649 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 16: lift them back up again and encourage parenting and families 650 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 16: and let's get back to the America that we used 651 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 16: to have. That really, the family was the foundation of 652 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 16: our society. That's what we need to return to and 653 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 16: the best way, and by the way, that is the 654 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 16: best case for the children as well. So if we 655 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 16: just take that on its face, it's an easy layup 656 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 16: for the President to take care of this, and it's 657 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:35,280 Speaker 16: a great start to making amends and going forward in strength. 658 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 1: How do you view the Department of Education's moves when 659 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: it comes to this on our a limitic. 660 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 16: Ban you broke up a little bit the ed Department 661 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 16: of Education's views on what? 662 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 3: Oh? 663 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: No, how do you view the moves that they have 664 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:52,720 Speaker 1: been making? 665 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 5: Oh just in the cut just to move so far? 666 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 16: Well, yeah, I mean they're very positive, certainly getting rid 667 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 16: of some of the department employees, and I'm sure these 668 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,720 Speaker 16: people are very qualified and won't have any trouble finding 669 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,760 Speaker 16: work elsewhere. But honestly, the Department of Education really doesn't 670 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 16: have anything to do with the specific education of children, 671 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 16: and if it did that the entire department should be 672 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 16: fired immediately, because we've dropped to fortieth among forty. So 673 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 16: this is a good start and they have a long 674 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 16: way to go, But they are making progress. 675 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 5: The funding is not drying up. 676 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 16: The funding is simply being sourced to other avenues where 677 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 16: it's already taking place. So really we're just sort of 678 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 16: cutting off some of the chaff, and there's a lot 679 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 16: more to go. 680 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 5: I think there is a lot more to go. 681 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: And I do agree with President Trump that when he 682 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 1: says though that he hopes that Linda McMahon will be 683 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: the last Secretary of Education, and wouldn't that be something. 684 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 1: But you know, here we are looking at a situation 685 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: where this this isn't some old long standing traditions like 686 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 1: the Department of State or something, or the Department Defense 687 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: aka the Dear Art in the Ward. The Department of 688 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: Education has only been around since the Carter administration, and 689 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 1: this idea that you know, it's it's some long standing 690 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 1: traditional form of them, and it's gone down it's completely 691 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 1: gone downhill. And and it was under Obama that they 692 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 1: put all of the student loans under there. That's where 693 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 1: the student loan crisis came from, which is something by 694 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: the way, I am I am sympathetic to because I 695 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: think a lot of these students, what happened with them 696 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 1: was they got absolutely taken advantage of and parents. This 697 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: is more at the college level, but parents didn't understand 698 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: exactly how bad it was going in for those kids. 699 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:37,720 Speaker 5: So Sam Sorbo, we're. 700 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: Gona We've got a quick break coming up.

But you know this, this this is great. 739 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 1: So Brandon, we haven't aired it yet. It's going to 740 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: come out later, but you and I did a long 741 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: form interview all about your book that is going to drop, 742 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 1: I believe later tonight on the Human Events Daily podcast 743 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: side and on our social media side where we go 744 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 1: way down and deep into all of this Embrace Masculinity. 745 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: But before I ask you about that, Sam, I got 746 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: to ask you, have you read the book yet? And 747 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 1: what do you think about what Braden says. 748 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 16: Well, of course I've read the book, and I taught 749 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 16: him everything that he knows. 750 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: So actually he's a reader for all my stuff. 751 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 5: She's the baby every. 752 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,320 Speaker 1: Single book, everything I've done. 753 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I'm proud of him. 754 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,399 Speaker 16: It is his second book, and I just he's done 755 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 16: such a great job and he's become such a fine, 756 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 16: upstanding young man. And honestly, you're putting me on the 757 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 16: spot because I'm really not allowed to criticize him in 758 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 16: this capacity. 759 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:43,479 Speaker 5: Here I am her. 760 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 1: Mom's a little critical about some of the stuff. Wait, wait, 761 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: is there are there other parts where you disagree? 762 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:53,240 Speaker 5: Oh, now I'm interested. 763 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 17: Well, she's she's very critical, which is one of my 764 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 17: favorite traits about her, is because at least I know 765 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 17: whenever she's saying something that it's completely honest. And so 766 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 17: the whole purpose is to make what I'm doing as 767 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 17: good as it possibly can be, Which is why I 768 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 17: think the book has been so well received from everyone 769 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 17: who's read it is because of notes like hers. 770 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 1: No, that's great, that's great. No, it's some good ones. 771 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 1: You know, when I did. When my mom reads over 772 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: my stuff, she's this doesn't make any sense. 773 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 5: Fix this. 774 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 1: She's just you know, like redlining, different stuff. Fix this out. 775 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: But so walk us through. What's the core of the book, 776 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 1: what's the theme? Why put this book out right now? 777 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 17: Well, the core of the book is to uplift specifically men, 778 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 17: but everyone living in the West today struggling with the 779 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 17: decline of morality that we see in our society. And 780 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 17: so I really wanted something that could serve as a guide, 781 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 17: as a handbook, as a tool for young people, specifically 782 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 17: from the perspective of another young person. We have wonderful 783 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 17: people in the conservative movement and in the Christian sphere 784 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 17: that are doing great things, but we don't have very 785 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 17: many gen Z people like myself, and so I felt 786 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 17: the calling, the need to kind of step up and 787 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 17: try to take that mantle, to be that voice for 788 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 17: the young people, which is the entire premise behind the book. 789 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 17: It's a message of being able to relate and to 790 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 17: say to these people, look, I get what you're going through. 791 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,440 Speaker 17: I've been there. Here's how we can climb out of 792 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 17: it together to save this country. 793 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 16: Also, it's pointing for young women to understand what masculinity 794 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,839 Speaker 16: is and why they should be pursuing a masculine mail 795 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 16: instead of what I like to call a lie down 796 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 16: guy instead of a stand up guy, because they're being 797 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 16: led astray. A lot of women today, young women who 798 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 16: are in school are being taught to pack a lize 799 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 16: and it's very sad to me because they are squandering 800 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 16: some of their most valuable time on not great guys, 801 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 16: on young men who are not stand up guys. And 802 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 16: so that's also what this book is about. 803 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 5: It's a map, a checklist. No, I think that's great. 804 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 5: You know. 805 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 1: I look when I was in my twenties, you know, 806 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: I was going off. I was definitely that I was 807 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 1: doing the military is trying to travel. I was trying 808 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 1: to do all sorts of different things. I was definitely 809 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 1: not thinking about ways that I could be a better man. 810 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 1: I was just sort of going out and trying to 811 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: enjoy life and do everything that I possibly could and go, 812 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 1: you know, try and sample everything the world had to offer. 813 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: But it's really something where I think I see this 814 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: a lot more now with gen Z that there's a 815 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 1: general sense and which have a minute left and people 816 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 1: can get more into the podcast when it comes out 817 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: later tonight to make sure you're a subscribed to Human 818 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,800 Speaker 1: Events Daily. But there's this general sense that something's gone 819 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 1: wrong with the world externally, and the problem isn't that 820 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:44,319 Speaker 1: external issue that that's actually a symptom of the internal 821 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: problems that we're all facing. Does that make sense? 822 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 16: Well, Brandon Brandon had a career as a public speaker 823 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 16: before he even started this, and one of the phrases 824 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 16: that he used to say, do you want to quote it, 825 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 16: hard times make as night. 826 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 17: Is the yes, it is. The weak men create hard 827 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 17: time times. Hard times create strong men. Strong men create 828 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 17: good times, in good times create week men. And we 829 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 17: are right now at the pinnacle of the weak men 830 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 17: who are creating the hard times. 831 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 5: And so I like to say that. 832 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 17: Unfortunately, if we don't turn this ship around, then America 833 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 17: as we knew it, the American dream which I was 834 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 17: sold growing up as a kid, will no longer exist. 835 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:18,839 Speaker 17: And so we have to take this fight. We have 836 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 17: to pick up the reins to save that American dream 837 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 17: for the next generation. Because I may not have all 838 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 17: of the benefits that the previous generations were given were gifted, 839 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 17: but I can certainly try to bring them back for 840 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 17: the following generations. 841 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: It's as simple as that. Tell people again the name 842 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: of the book and where they can go get. 843 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 17: It, embrace masculinity, lifting men up in a world that 844 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 17: pushes them down.
