It's been a pretty rough 4 00:00:22,777 --> 00:00:24,897 Speaker 1: few days for the Biden family. In addition to the 5 00:00:24,937 --> 00:00:28,617 Speaker 1: President's plummeting poll numbers, First Lady Jill Biden is now 6 00:00:28,777 --> 00:00:32,817 Speaker 1: under fire for insensitive comments made about Hispanic Americans, and 7 00:00:33,137 --> 00:00:35,457 Speaker 1: new images and videos are showing the depths of the 8 00:00:35,577 --> 00:00:39,377 Speaker 1: depravity of first son Hunter Biden. It's implic it's about 9 00:00:39,417 --> 00:00:41,137 Speaker 1: time that we as Americans face the fact that the 10 00:00:41,177 --> 00:00:43,657 Speaker 1: Biden family is pretty awful. Take a look at this 11 00:00:43,777 --> 00:00:52,897 Speaker 1: in tonight's holding line Welcome to holding lot on Buck Sexton. 12 00:00:53,217 --> 00:00:57,737 Speaker 1: The gaff that Joe Biden made at the latin X 13 00:00:58,657 --> 00:01:03,297 Speaker 1: conference down in San Antonio, Texas is not surprising when 14 00:01:03,297 --> 00:01:05,137 Speaker 1: you think about the fact that Jill Biden is being 15 00:01:05,137 --> 00:01:10,057 Speaker 1: deployed here as someone who has no background or expertise 16 00:01:10,137 --> 00:01:13,377 Speaker 1: and politics whatsoever, to try to bolster the image of 17 00:01:13,377 --> 00:01:16,337 Speaker 1: the Biden administration on political issues. Mind you, she's not 18 00:01:16,737 --> 00:01:21,137 Speaker 1: running a school lunch campaign here. She's very much weighing 19 00:01:21,137 --> 00:01:23,657 Speaker 1: into things like gun control and equal rights for women, 20 00:01:23,737 --> 00:01:26,817 Speaker 1: and by that the immun abortion, of course, all kinds 21 00:01:26,817 --> 00:01:30,777 Speaker 1: of thing where she is speaking and giving voice to 22 00:01:30,817 --> 00:01:33,377 Speaker 1: the Democrat talking points. But she had a little bit 23 00:01:33,377 --> 00:01:38,417 Speaker 1: of a situation because in her efforts to pander. Remember 24 00:01:38,457 --> 00:01:41,977 Speaker 1: she's at the latin X Inclusion spelled with an ex 25 00:01:42,057 --> 00:01:47,537 Speaker 1: conference inclusion, and here she is telling everybody that has 26 00:01:47,537 --> 00:01:52,817 Speaker 1: assembled there that the Hispanic community is unique like breakfast tacos, 27 00:01:53,537 --> 00:01:57,377 Speaker 1: but we can't get those things on our own. Raoul 28 00:01:57,537 --> 00:02:03,377 Speaker 1: helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity 29 00:02:03,817 --> 00:02:08,937 Speaker 1: of this community, as distinct as the bogadas of the Bronx, 30 00:02:09,617 --> 00:02:14,457 Speaker 1: as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami, and as unique 31 00:02:14,497 --> 00:02:24,897 Speaker 1: as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength. Yes, 32 00:02:25,777 --> 00:02:29,497 Speaker 1: the whole community of Hispanics in America is, as the 33 00:02:29,497 --> 00:02:33,177 Speaker 1: First Lady says, as unique as the breakfast tacos of 34 00:02:33,257 --> 00:02:37,297 Speaker 1: San Antonio. It would be hard to think of a 35 00:02:37,417 --> 00:02:41,457 Speaker 1: more out of touch way the First Lady tries to 36 00:02:41,497 --> 00:02:45,457 Speaker 1: show her connection to the Hispanic community here. She could 37 00:02:45,497 --> 00:02:47,777 Speaker 1: have just showed up and said, hey, everybody, thanks for 38 00:02:47,777 --> 00:02:50,377 Speaker 1: assembling today. Wish you all the best. Here to help 39 00:02:50,417 --> 00:02:51,737 Speaker 1: one or two great things for you. You know. The 40 00:02:51,857 --> 00:02:55,857 Speaker 1: usual boilerplate, but instead she got a little bit creative, 41 00:02:55,937 --> 00:02:59,577 Speaker 1: or her staff rather did. Speaking of creativity, Marco Rubio 42 00:02:59,617 --> 00:03:03,697 Speaker 1: Center from Florida put this out new profile picking I yes, 43 00:03:04,417 --> 00:03:08,457 Speaker 1: as unique as a taco. So a lot of people 44 00:03:08,657 --> 00:03:12,457 Speaker 1: were having some fun with this one because obviously it 45 00:03:12,537 --> 00:03:15,377 Speaker 1: was a weird thing to say. Also that she would 46 00:03:15,377 --> 00:03:23,457 Speaker 1: say bo gaydas instead of bogadas instead of bodega just 47 00:03:23,497 --> 00:03:25,697 Speaker 1: goes to show once again he's the first Lady who 48 00:03:26,137 --> 00:03:27,737 Speaker 1: I don't think she's ever been in a bodega, and 49 00:03:28,257 --> 00:03:31,337 Speaker 1: he has any idea, but it's just inauthentic. It just 50 00:03:31,377 --> 00:03:34,977 Speaker 1: came across the whole thing as pandering and kind of silly. 51 00:03:35,417 --> 00:03:38,417 Speaker 1: Press Secretary of the First Lady, Michael Rosa tweeted out 52 00:03:38,417 --> 00:03:41,977 Speaker 1: The First Lady apologized that her words conveyed anything but 53 00:03:42,057 --> 00:03:44,457 Speaker 1: pure admiration and love for the Latino community. So the 54 00:03:44,577 --> 00:03:48,017 Speaker 1: usual apology there. No, that's not a big deal. I 55 00:03:48,017 --> 00:03:49,817 Speaker 1: just want to say it was funny more than anything else, 56 00:03:49,977 --> 00:03:54,017 Speaker 1: because this is Democrats looking to the First Lady to 57 00:03:54,137 --> 00:03:56,777 Speaker 1: make it seem like the Biden administration has it together. 58 00:03:56,897 --> 00:04:00,977 Speaker 1: And no, that didn't really work so well here. But 59 00:04:01,057 --> 00:04:04,217 Speaker 1: then there's more serious things The Biden family has also 60 00:04:04,577 --> 00:04:06,817 Speaker 1: been up to and we've seen from them in recent days, 61 00:04:06,857 --> 00:04:11,217 Speaker 1: notably the President himself, who told this story in order 62 00:04:11,257 --> 00:04:17,697 Speaker 1: to try to create an emotional appeal for very permissive 63 00:04:17,777 --> 00:04:20,497 Speaker 1: abortion laws. If you listen to Democrats, they want abortion 64 00:04:21,057 --> 00:04:23,737 Speaker 1: for any or no reason, for all nine months of pregnancy. 65 00:04:23,777 --> 00:04:26,697 Speaker 1: So Joe Biden tells this horrific story of a ten 66 00:04:26,777 --> 00:04:29,737 Speaker 1: year old rape victim in Ohio who could not get 67 00:04:29,777 --> 00:04:33,377 Speaker 1: an abortion in her state. Watch just last week was 68 00:04:33,377 --> 00:04:37,737 Speaker 1: reported that a ten year old girl was a rape 69 00:04:37,817 --> 00:04:42,217 Speaker 1: victim of high ten years old and she was forced 70 00:04:42,257 --> 00:04:45,137 Speaker 1: to have to travel out of the state to Indiana 71 00:04:45,377 --> 00:04:47,977 Speaker 1: to seek to terminate the presidency and maybe save her life. 72 00:04:48,217 --> 00:04:52,817 Speaker 1: That's last part is my judgment. Ten years old, ten 73 00:04:52,897 --> 00:04:57,697 Speaker 1: years old, rape, six weeks pregnant, already traumatized, it was 74 00:04:57,737 --> 00:05:02,457 Speaker 1: forced to travel to another state. Imagine being that little girl. 75 00:05:03,697 --> 00:05:06,817 Speaker 1: I'm serious, Just imagine being a little girl ten years old. 76 00:05:07,777 --> 00:05:09,937 Speaker 1: He's yelling about it, he's doing his angry Biden thing. 77 00:05:10,377 --> 00:05:12,417 Speaker 1: Is when he says, there's a lot this wouldn't be 78 00:05:12,457 --> 00:05:15,097 Speaker 1: illegal in the state of behind. There would be no 79 00:05:15,137 --> 00:05:17,417 Speaker 1: prohibition on her getting an abortion. The why is he 80 00:05:17,497 --> 00:05:20,737 Speaker 1: saying that not true. And then there's also the issue 81 00:05:20,737 --> 00:05:25,017 Speaker 1: of is the story itself true? Apparently not, at least 82 00:05:25,017 --> 00:05:27,537 Speaker 1: not based on the latest reporting. This is a daily mail. 83 00:05:27,657 --> 00:05:29,497 Speaker 1: Biden's claimed that a ten year old rape victim was 84 00:05:29,537 --> 00:05:31,497 Speaker 1: forced to travel across state lines to get an abortion 85 00:05:31,617 --> 00:05:34,817 Speaker 1: is called into question by the Washington Post as it 86 00:05:34,897 --> 00:05:38,777 Speaker 1: emerges a doctor behind it is a prominent abortion advocate. 87 00:05:38,937 --> 00:05:42,377 Speaker 1: Now you can say, well, that's circumstantial. Maybe it's a 88 00:05:42,377 --> 00:05:45,497 Speaker 1: true story, even though it just so happens that the 89 00:05:45,577 --> 00:05:50,057 Speaker 1: person who originated this story is a major supporter of 90 00:05:50,097 --> 00:05:53,937 Speaker 1: the most extreme pro abortion positions. You can say, maybe 91 00:05:53,977 --> 00:05:56,817 Speaker 1: that's a coincidence. But then there's this as well, the 92 00:05:56,897 --> 00:06:01,377 Speaker 1: Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost speaking out to say that 93 00:06:01,937 --> 00:06:03,497 Speaker 1: one the ten year old girl would not have to 94 00:06:03,537 --> 00:06:05,577 Speaker 1: leave Ohio to get treatment, and also he knows nothing 95 00:06:05,577 --> 00:06:09,257 Speaker 1: about this case. Watch can I correct something that everybody's 96 00:06:09,297 --> 00:06:15,457 Speaker 1: reporting wrong? Nationally? Sure, Ohio's heartbeat law has a medical 97 00:06:15,657 --> 00:06:20,657 Speaker 1: emergency exception, if broader than just the life of the mother. 98 00:06:22,297 --> 00:06:25,657 Speaker 1: This young girl, if she exists, and if this horrible 99 00:06:25,737 --> 00:06:28,497 Speaker 1: thing actually happened to her, breaks my heart to think 100 00:06:28,537 --> 00:06:32,017 Speaker 1: about it. She did not have to leave Ohio to 101 00:06:32,137 --> 00:06:36,777 Speaker 1: find treatment. So even if this story is true and 102 00:06:36,937 --> 00:06:38,697 Speaker 1: right now, there are a lot of questions as to 103 00:06:38,697 --> 00:06:41,977 Speaker 1: whether this even happened. Even if the story were true, 104 00:06:42,497 --> 00:06:46,977 Speaker 1: it would not be true that Ohio criminalizes that young 105 00:06:47,057 --> 00:06:52,377 Speaker 1: girl getting an abortion in that particular. So Joe Biden 106 00:06:52,457 --> 00:06:55,137 Speaker 1: lied or he's not smart enough to know what the 107 00:06:55,137 --> 00:06:57,257 Speaker 1: actual laws are. They's complaining about it. Either way, this 108 00:06:57,377 --> 00:07:01,257 Speaker 1: is an issue, and then being in abidence, there's Hunter 109 00:07:01,297 --> 00:07:05,457 Speaker 1: Biden Daily Mail. Again. Hunter Biden could face prostitution charges 110 00:07:05,497 --> 00:07:09,297 Speaker 1: for transporting hookers across state lines and disguising checks to 111 00:07:09,337 --> 00:07:14,217 Speaker 1: them as payments for medical services. The first son spent 112 00:07:15,017 --> 00:07:20,417 Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars in five months on the quote girlfriend experience. 113 00:07:20,937 --> 00:07:26,137 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden is somebody who it's hard to it's hard 114 00:07:26,177 --> 00:07:29,777 Speaker 1: to think that anyone could have this many, this many 115 00:07:29,817 --> 00:07:33,617 Speaker 1: personal demons that they let run completely out of control 116 00:07:34,257 --> 00:07:38,857 Speaker 1: and create all these legal liabilities for him. Somehow, he's 117 00:07:38,897 --> 00:07:42,257 Speaker 1: never getting prosecuted for anything, it seems, even though this 118 00:07:42,337 --> 00:07:44,977 Speaker 1: was all illegal activity. The Daily Mail, some of Hunter's 119 00:07:45,057 --> 00:07:48,417 Speaker 1: hooker payments came just hours after he received thousands of 120 00:07:48,457 --> 00:07:52,337 Speaker 1: dollars from his father, So there is also here the 121 00:07:52,417 --> 00:07:55,257 Speaker 1: possibility at least that we have to take it as 122 00:07:55,297 --> 00:07:59,697 Speaker 1: a possibility that Hunter Biden may have been paying for 123 00:07:59,737 --> 00:08:02,417 Speaker 1: hookers with money he got from his dad, Joe Biden, 124 00:08:03,017 --> 00:08:06,137 Speaker 1: who is now the President of the United States. And 125 00:08:06,177 --> 00:08:08,337 Speaker 1: there are also videos and pictures that show Hunter helping 126 00:08:08,337 --> 00:08:12,977 Speaker 1: transport prostitutes over state lines, which is a potential federal offense. 127 00:08:13,537 --> 00:08:17,137 Speaker 1: But the biggest issue here with Hunter Biden is that 128 00:08:17,217 --> 00:08:20,817 Speaker 1: he is just the most obvious manifestation of the Biden 129 00:08:21,537 --> 00:08:25,497 Speaker 1: prime family. That they sell influence, that they break the law, 130 00:08:25,897 --> 00:08:30,657 Speaker 1: that they engage in not just morally but legally reprehensible 131 00:08:30,657 --> 00:08:34,217 Speaker 1: behavior that does affect this country. This is not just 132 00:08:34,337 --> 00:08:38,497 Speaker 1: one off, minor things that affect the individual. Hunter was 133 00:08:38,537 --> 00:08:44,497 Speaker 1: selling access to his dad obviously to corrupt Ukrainian and yes, 134 00:08:44,537 --> 00:08:48,177 Speaker 1: even Chinese business. So that's very much an issue for 135 00:08:48,217 --> 00:08:51,297 Speaker 1: the American people to be concerned about the whole Biden family, 136 00:08:52,017 --> 00:08:54,457 Speaker 1: but a mess. Well. Have more on this the first 137 00:08:54,457 --> 00:08:56,297 Speaker 1: TV's t and Alone in a moment, but first let's 138 00:08:56,297 --> 00:08:59,497 Speaker 1: talk about the newest sponsor on Hold the Line off Grid, Panama. 139 00:08:59,617 --> 00:09:01,737 Speaker 1: Why don't you're worried about the reported food shortages and 140 00:09:01,777 --> 00:09:04,297 Speaker 1: power outages headed our way? You're not alone. If you 141 00:09:04,337 --> 00:09:07,137 Speaker 1: look at the skyrocketing cost of energy and food prices 142 00:09:07,137 --> 00:09:09,897 Speaker 1: going through the roof, we're certainly headed in the wrong direction. 143 00:09:10,257 --> 00:09:12,777 Speaker 1: Many are choosing to go off grid. When you think 144 00:09:12,777 --> 00:09:14,977 Speaker 1: of going off gride, you think of living in the 145 00:09:15,017 --> 00:09:18,377 Speaker 1: mountain somewhere, perhaps far away from civilization. But now there 146 00:09:18,457 --> 00:09:21,177 Speaker 1: is a safe option for going totally off grid in Panama, 147 00:09:21,337 --> 00:09:24,137 Speaker 1: Central America, and a modern home starts at only one 148 00:09:24,177 --> 00:09:26,857 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars. These homes are fully set up on 149 00:09:26,857 --> 00:09:29,177 Speaker 1: a self sustaining farm with all your needs met right 150 00:09:29,257 --> 00:09:32,457 Speaker 1: on the property. Panama offers a stable government, cost effective, 151 00:09:32,497 --> 00:09:35,577 Speaker 1: high quality medical care, and a fantastic climate. There are 152 00:09:35,577 --> 00:09:37,817 Speaker 1: only twenty four homes being offered in the communities. To 153 00:09:37,857 --> 00:09:40,257 Speaker 1: reach out to them quickly at off grid Panama dot 154 00:09:40,257 --> 00:09:42,697 Speaker 1: com or call them now at nine oh four two 155 00:09:42,777 --> 00:09:46,497 Speaker 1: three six four seven three seven. That website again is 156 00:09:46,537 --> 00:09:49,777 Speaker 1: off grid Panama dot com or nine oh four two 157 00:09:49,897 --> 00:09:53,697 Speaker 1: three six four seven three seven. Be patient, leave a message. 158 00:09:53,697 --> 00:09:55,577 Speaker 1: We think this is going to sell out quickly and 159 00:09:55,617 --> 00:09:58,497 Speaker 1: they call everyone back within twenty four hours. Being a 160 00:09:58,537 --> 00:10:04,737 Speaker 1: low up next stay with us occurring. Two pro tip 161 00:10:04,977 --> 00:10:08,777 Speaker 1: when speaking to Hispanics, maybe really avoid any comparisons to 162 00:10:08,857 --> 00:10:14,857 Speaker 1: tacos and chilaut as, Chimmy changas. Yeah, and when a 163 00:10:14,897 --> 00:10:17,617 Speaker 1: Democrat has lost The Ladies of the View, which is 164 00:10:17,777 --> 00:10:19,897 Speaker 1: probably the dumbest show on television, it's safe to say 165 00:10:19,937 --> 00:10:23,337 Speaker 1: that something's wrong. First Lady, isn't the first Biden to 166 00:10:23,417 --> 00:10:27,417 Speaker 1: offer up some insensitive comments about minority groups. Who can 167 00:10:27,457 --> 00:10:30,457 Speaker 1: forget this moment from Senator Joe Biden back then in 168 00:10:30,537 --> 00:10:34,697 Speaker 1: two thousand and nine, you cannot go to a seven 169 00:10:34,777 --> 00:10:38,177 Speaker 1: eleven or a dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight 170 00:10:38,217 --> 00:10:44,657 Speaker 1: Indian accent. Yeah, classic Joe Biden. There join me now, 171 00:10:44,697 --> 00:10:48,297 Speaker 1: commentary writer for The Washington Examiner and contributor here at 172 00:10:48,297 --> 00:10:52,337 Speaker 1: the first tvt and Lootina, Good to see you, Hey Buck, 173 00:10:52,697 --> 00:10:55,137 Speaker 1: Are you ready to go to the bogda after work? 174 00:10:55,537 --> 00:10:59,217 Speaker 1: How was my favorite bit from Joe Biden's entire likening 175 00:10:59,457 --> 00:11:03,977 Speaker 1: her fellow Latinks friends to a various items familiar to 176 00:11:04,097 --> 00:11:08,297 Speaker 1: Hispanic neighborhood with calling a bodega a bogda. If we 177 00:11:08,297 --> 00:11:12,897 Speaker 1: were trying to come up with elitist, white liberal women 178 00:11:13,857 --> 00:11:19,177 Speaker 1: panders disastrously to Hispanic community, I don't think we would 179 00:11:19,177 --> 00:11:21,417 Speaker 1: have done a better job than that. One minute or 180 00:11:21,457 --> 00:11:24,177 Speaker 1: so a clip that everyone seen where she talks about 181 00:11:24,177 --> 00:11:28,777 Speaker 1: the diversity of breakfast tacos in San Antonio, and as 182 00:11:28,817 --> 00:11:32,777 Speaker 1: you said, refers to bogadas, which makes it gold to be. 183 00:11:32,897 --> 00:11:34,697 Speaker 1: I don't think she's ever been to a bodega before. 184 00:11:34,737 --> 00:11:38,177 Speaker 1: I think she has no idea. No, she's never been 185 00:11:38,217 --> 00:11:40,177 Speaker 1: to a bodega, because I don't know if she's ever 186 00:11:40,217 --> 00:11:43,337 Speaker 1: been anywhere outside of you know, these uppercross suburbs of 187 00:11:43,577 --> 00:11:47,057 Speaker 1: DC and Delaware. The fact is that the base of 188 00:11:47,057 --> 00:11:50,417 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, if you look at where they've seen 189 00:11:50,697 --> 00:11:55,817 Speaker 1: the most consistent growth, or college educated white women, working 190 00:11:55,857 --> 00:11:59,377 Speaker 1: class white men have turned away from the Democratic Party. 191 00:11:59,577 --> 00:12:03,177 Speaker 1: And now we're seeing Hispanics turn away and in droves, 192 00:12:03,217 --> 00:12:07,457 Speaker 1: in part because of adopting language like Latins or Latin 193 00:12:07,657 --> 00:12:10,257 Speaker 1: X or however the hell you pronounced it, because that's 194 00:12:10,257 --> 00:12:12,497 Speaker 1: what the name of this of this conference was. It 195 00:12:12,657 --> 00:12:14,737 Speaker 1: used a double X at one point to replace some 196 00:12:14,937 --> 00:12:17,577 Speaker 1: letter because now apparently any letter that is an X 197 00:12:17,697 --> 00:12:21,177 Speaker 1: is transphobic or sexist or whatever. At this point, I 198 00:12:21,177 --> 00:12:23,017 Speaker 1: don't even think you and I can keep up. But 199 00:12:23,097 --> 00:12:26,657 Speaker 1: the fact is is that the working class, and specifically 200 00:12:26,697 --> 00:12:31,297 Speaker 1: the Latino working class, is just no longer a priority 201 00:12:31,457 --> 00:12:34,177 Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party. If it were, that wouldn't have 202 00:12:34,217 --> 00:12:37,337 Speaker 1: pumped an extra two trillion dollars into the economy after 203 00:12:37,697 --> 00:12:42,377 Speaker 1: a historically long period of near zero or zero interest 204 00:12:42,497 --> 00:12:45,417 Speaker 1: rate because the fact is that right now this economy 205 00:12:45,537 --> 00:12:48,177 Speaker 1: is hitting the working class the hardest. So what does 206 00:12:48,257 --> 00:12:50,897 Speaker 1: Joe Biden do just to go virtue signal and she 207 00:12:50,937 --> 00:12:55,937 Speaker 1: has to go like in Latino Americans two tacos. So 208 00:12:56,537 --> 00:12:58,897 Speaker 1: goodwin for the Biden administration. Now that you have the 209 00:12:58,977 --> 00:13:04,257 Speaker 1: younger Biden also performing these they call it. They call 210 00:13:04,337 --> 00:13:10,817 Speaker 1: it the I guess it's inclusion with an X in conference, 211 00:13:10,897 --> 00:13:16,257 Speaker 1: so the Latin x Inclusion Conference. What's remarkable to me 212 00:13:16,417 --> 00:13:20,337 Speaker 1: is that you have all the polling of the Hispanic community. 213 00:13:20,377 --> 00:13:22,377 Speaker 1: I know, I'm so old school. I'll refer to it 214 00:13:22,377 --> 00:13:26,377 Speaker 1: as the Hispanic community or the Latino community. Shows they 215 00:13:26,417 --> 00:13:31,657 Speaker 1: don't like this term, and not Republican Hispanic voters or 216 00:13:31,657 --> 00:13:34,537 Speaker 1: Republican Hispanic individuals don't like this term, but Democrats do. 217 00:13:35,177 --> 00:13:38,777 Speaker 1: None of them like it. But white liberals who work 218 00:13:38,857 --> 00:13:41,377 Speaker 1: at the top of the Democrat Party and work for 219 00:13:41,537 --> 00:13:46,097 Speaker 1: the legacy media, the big legacy media outlets, insist on it. Anyway, 220 00:13:46,337 --> 00:13:50,897 Speaker 1: what is that all about? It's again, it all comes 221 00:13:50,937 --> 00:13:54,937 Speaker 1: down to what are people talking about in the dorm 222 00:13:55,017 --> 00:13:58,617 Speaker 1: common rooms at Oberlin and Vassar, not what are they 223 00:13:58,657 --> 00:14:01,217 Speaker 1: talking about in the Rio Grand Valley and what are 224 00:14:01,217 --> 00:14:04,617 Speaker 1: they talking about and Spoutforida. You know, Republicans have always 225 00:14:04,657 --> 00:14:06,937 Speaker 1: cleaned up pretty handily with the kill with the Cuban 226 00:14:07,097 --> 00:14:10,217 Speaker 1: x back community. But now we are seeing it was 227 00:14:10,217 --> 00:14:13,297 Speaker 1: Hispanic Americans who are on the border. They're the ones 228 00:14:13,377 --> 00:14:17,057 Speaker 1: voting in droves for Republicans. You know, last year you 229 00:14:17,137 --> 00:14:21,017 Speaker 1: had the mayoral seat of McAllen, Texas, crucial border town, 230 00:14:21,377 --> 00:14:26,617 Speaker 1: go Republican. We just Amira Flores win in South Texas. 231 00:14:26,737 --> 00:14:31,977 Speaker 1: And we're seeing it because they understand that democratic priority 232 00:14:32,097 --> 00:14:36,497 Speaker 1: right now are what forms of virtue signaling can appease 233 00:14:36,937 --> 00:14:40,937 Speaker 1: the highly educated activist class, not what improves the bottom 234 00:14:40,977 --> 00:14:45,257 Speaker 1: line for Latinos right now. And not to say that 235 00:14:45,337 --> 00:14:49,097 Speaker 1: the president of Mexico or the Mexican Americans represent everyone 236 00:14:49,137 --> 00:14:52,697 Speaker 1: in the Latino dask for, obviously they don't. But what 237 00:14:52,937 --> 00:14:56,177 Speaker 1: is the Mexican President Obrador saying today when he meets 238 00:14:56,177 --> 00:14:58,777 Speaker 1: the Biden. He's bragging about how they have lower gas 239 00:14:58,817 --> 00:15:03,137 Speaker 1: prices than we do. That's where you know the international 240 00:15:03,217 --> 00:15:06,777 Speaker 1: Latino minds, that is on gas prices. What is Biden 241 00:15:06,897 --> 00:15:09,657 Speaker 1: cared about and what are most importantly because now we 242 00:15:10,097 --> 00:15:13,337 Speaker 1: you're seeing the fact that his handlers are worn and 243 00:15:13,457 --> 00:15:17,497 Speaker 1: more from digging their clause into what this administration actually does. 244 00:15:17,817 --> 00:15:21,337 Speaker 1: They are cared about things like using Latin X. They 245 00:15:21,337 --> 00:15:26,977 Speaker 1: are cared about signaling, by the way, switching gears. Here 246 00:15:27,017 --> 00:15:29,377 Speaker 1: for a second, Tina, There's been a little bit of 247 00:15:29,617 --> 00:15:32,137 Speaker 1: back and forth between the former president Donald Trump and 248 00:15:32,177 --> 00:15:36,937 Speaker 1: Elon Musk, the richest man in the world. This was interesting. 249 00:15:37,017 --> 00:15:41,537 Speaker 1: Here is Trump calling Elon Musk a BS artist. Watch 250 00:15:42,577 --> 00:15:46,537 Speaker 1: Elon is not gonna buy Twitter. Where did you hear 251 00:15:46,577 --> 00:15:52,697 Speaker 1: that before? From me? From me? Fank accounts a lot 252 00:15:52,737 --> 00:15:55,377 Speaker 1: of them. Noah, he's got himself a mess. You know. 253 00:15:55,457 --> 00:15:57,537 Speaker 1: He said the other day, Oh, I've never voted for 254 00:15:57,577 --> 00:15:59,617 Speaker 1: a Republican. I said, I didn't know that. He told 255 00:15:59,657 --> 00:16:03,617 Speaker 1: me voted for me. So he's another boat artist. But 256 00:16:03,657 --> 00:16:09,217 Speaker 1: he's not gonna be buy Elon responded on Twitter. Of 257 00:16:09,217 --> 00:16:10,937 Speaker 1: course I don't hate the man, but it's time for 258 00:16:10,977 --> 00:16:13,137 Speaker 1: Trump to hang up his hat and sail into the sunset. 259 00:16:13,577 --> 00:16:16,577 Speaker 1: Dems should also call off the attack. Don't make it 260 00:16:16,617 --> 00:16:19,137 Speaker 1: so that Trump's only way to survive is to regain 261 00:16:19,377 --> 00:16:22,977 Speaker 1: the presidency. What do you make of all this? So 262 00:16:23,057 --> 00:16:25,017 Speaker 1: I don't I know that I might be in the 263 00:16:25,057 --> 00:16:27,897 Speaker 1: minority here, but I do sort of agree with Elon 264 00:16:28,337 --> 00:16:31,057 Speaker 1: if by age alone, I do think there's a generation 265 00:16:31,097 --> 00:16:34,377 Speaker 1: of us right who would like a president who you know, 266 00:16:35,257 --> 00:16:38,817 Speaker 1: has living memory of how this century actually works, rather 267 00:16:38,897 --> 00:16:41,497 Speaker 1: than people like Donald Trump and Joe Biden who came 268 00:16:41,537 --> 00:16:44,977 Speaker 1: of age in just a different era and old dogs 269 00:16:44,977 --> 00:16:47,857 Speaker 1: are not great at learning new tricks. Fundamentally, what is this? 270 00:16:48,097 --> 00:16:52,257 Speaker 1: It's sort of a pissing match between two billionaires. Trump 271 00:16:52,457 --> 00:16:56,617 Speaker 1: had does have a vested financial interest truth social remaining dominant. 272 00:16:56,937 --> 00:16:59,697 Speaker 1: And you know, I think that Elon Musk would would 273 00:16:59,737 --> 00:17:03,417 Speaker 1: make Twitter, probably on the day to day usage, just 274 00:17:03,497 --> 00:17:06,537 Speaker 1: a lot more usable because Elon Musk is first and 275 00:17:06,577 --> 00:17:08,777 Speaker 1: foremost a businessman, and he's also a tech guy. He 276 00:17:08,817 --> 00:17:10,937 Speaker 1: knows how to make these things better. And Twitter has 277 00:17:10,977 --> 00:17:13,497 Speaker 1: been kind of a bit of a disaster, especially in 278 00:17:13,497 --> 00:17:16,457 Speaker 1: the last half decade, in terms of not just content moderation, 279 00:17:16,857 --> 00:17:20,297 Speaker 1: but just sheer usability, user interface and whatnot. You think 280 00:17:20,337 --> 00:17:23,417 Speaker 1: that is actually gonna is? He gonna own Twitter when 281 00:17:23,417 --> 00:17:29,217 Speaker 1: all said and done, well, a hostile takeover like this, 282 00:17:29,857 --> 00:17:33,097 Speaker 1: it hasn't really been done in a long time where 283 00:17:33,217 --> 00:17:36,177 Speaker 1: court has forced someone to take ownership. At the end 284 00:17:36,217 --> 00:17:37,537 Speaker 1: of the day, what can you do. You can't put 285 00:17:37,577 --> 00:17:40,497 Speaker 1: someone in prison for refusing to own something, right, And 286 00:17:40,577 --> 00:17:44,617 Speaker 1: we don't know exactly what the legal ease was, but 287 00:17:44,777 --> 00:17:47,937 Speaker 1: I think it's very much just a matter of dollars instead. 288 00:17:48,297 --> 00:17:51,777 Speaker 1: When Elon was negotiating this, it was before the market 289 00:17:51,817 --> 00:17:55,377 Speaker 1: really began to tumble. Since then, his you know, net 290 00:17:55,417 --> 00:17:59,177 Speaker 1: worth has tumbled by right, a few billion dollars, a 291 00:17:59,257 --> 00:18:02,377 Speaker 1: not insignificant amount. I think it's something like sixty billion dollars. 292 00:18:02,577 --> 00:18:04,977 Speaker 1: His net worth has tumbled from since since before this 293 00:18:05,057 --> 00:18:08,337 Speaker 1: Twitter thing started. If he has to liquidate some of 294 00:18:08,337 --> 00:18:11,177 Speaker 1: his control of Tesla, he's not going to do that. 295 00:18:11,417 --> 00:18:13,457 Speaker 1: He's rich it up where he can just pay the 296 00:18:13,537 --> 00:18:15,937 Speaker 1: one billion dollars fee if he wants to walk away 297 00:18:15,977 --> 00:18:19,297 Speaker 1: from this to Twitter. He is not going to divest 298 00:18:19,297 --> 00:18:23,137 Speaker 1: from Tesla. He is not going to liquidate holdings of SpaceX. 299 00:18:23,377 --> 00:18:26,017 Speaker 1: Those are his babies. Twitter. Can you can afford to 300 00:18:26,017 --> 00:18:30,137 Speaker 1: make Twitter or Vanity Project. He cannot afford to release 301 00:18:30,217 --> 00:18:34,217 Speaker 1: control of SpaceX or Tesla. So remains to be seen 302 00:18:34,297 --> 00:18:37,617 Speaker 1: because honestly, we don't know illegally is behind this deal. 303 00:18:38,057 --> 00:18:42,417 Speaker 1: If I were a betting woman, I would say he's 304 00:18:42,497 --> 00:18:45,697 Speaker 1: not in control of Twitter in two years. For now, 305 00:18:45,897 --> 00:18:48,177 Speaker 1: maybe he has to hold onto it nominally and then 306 00:18:48,257 --> 00:18:50,777 Speaker 1: let it go. But I do not think he is 307 00:18:50,857 --> 00:18:54,097 Speaker 1: going to want to in a recessionary period, because that's 308 00:18:54,097 --> 00:18:56,737 Speaker 1: what we are in take on the capitol in order 309 00:18:56,777 --> 00:19:00,377 Speaker 1: to take Twitter private. I wish you would, but I 310 00:19:00,417 --> 00:19:04,857 Speaker 1: hope I'm wrong. Thanks for being with us. Thank you. 311 00:19:06,817 --> 00:19:09,497 Speaker 1: The intensity of America's political divide seems to be growing 312 00:19:09,537 --> 00:19:11,897 Speaker 1: by the day, but could it boil over into a 313 00:19:11,897 --> 00:19:15,337 Speaker 1: civil conflict?

Is on the path towards 340 00:20:34,857 --> 00:20:37,937 Speaker 1: a dissolution of sort. Perhaps even some kind of civil 341 00:20:37,937 --> 00:20:41,217 Speaker 1: war or conflict of the thought of open warfare between 342 00:20:41,257 --> 00:20:45,577 Speaker 1: Americans is unthinkable to most people. Our friend Kurt Schlicht 343 00:20:45,777 --> 00:20:49,257 Speaker 1: is actually analyzing the topic head on or at townhall 344 00:20:49,297 --> 00:20:51,977 Speaker 1: dot com. Kurt writes that while the chance of civil 345 00:20:51,977 --> 00:20:55,137 Speaker 1: conflict is low, violence is not only possible, but it 346 00:20:55,137 --> 00:20:56,577 Speaker 1: has been used by the Left as a means of 347 00:20:56,577 --> 00:20:59,697 Speaker 1: making political change in America in the past, and the 348 00:20:59,777 --> 00:21:03,777 Speaker 1: evidence is that the Left remains ideologically open to using 349 00:21:03,857 --> 00:21:07,297 Speaker 1: violence in the future to achieve its goals. Possibility of 350 00:21:07,297 --> 00:21:09,657 Speaker 1: civil conflict is just one of the topics Kurt addresses 351 00:21:09,697 --> 00:21:13,137 Speaker 1: in his new book We'll Be Back The Fallen Rise 352 00:21:13,137 --> 00:21:16,697 Speaker 1: of America, which launches today. You can pick up your 353 00:21:16,737 --> 00:21:20,417 Speaker 1: copy on Amazon or Bonjarnoble dot com. Kurt joins me 354 00:21:20,457 --> 00:21:23,777 Speaker 1: out of talk about all the stuff, Kirt, what's going on? Man? Well, 355 00:21:23,817 --> 00:21:26,257 Speaker 1: thank you man. You know it's important that your readers 356 00:21:26,297 --> 00:21:28,897 Speaker 1: go by We'll Be Back the Fallen Rise of America 357 00:21:29,137 --> 00:21:32,017 Speaker 1: because if they die, they'll die alone and be eaten 358 00:21:32,057 --> 00:21:36,737 Speaker 1: by their pasts. So that's that's a powerful incentive. That's 359 00:21:36,737 --> 00:21:41,137 Speaker 1: a compelling sales pitch, I must say, And well, I 360 00:21:41,257 --> 00:21:45,297 Speaker 1: like direction. So people saw sell I just talk about 361 00:21:45,337 --> 00:21:50,297 Speaker 1: existential on week So so how bad? Oh French words? 362 00:21:50,337 --> 00:21:54,137 Speaker 1: Look at you getting fancy over there? Know how life 363 00:21:54,177 --> 00:21:58,817 Speaker 1: just came back from Paris? So here we go. How 364 00:21:58,857 --> 00:22:01,377 Speaker 1: bad does it get? Kurt before the we come back 365 00:22:01,417 --> 00:22:05,337 Speaker 1: part right? The fallen rise, So we're falling? How much 366 00:22:05,377 --> 00:22:08,657 Speaker 1: further do we fall? How bad does this get? Look, 367 00:22:08,697 --> 00:22:10,457 Speaker 1: I think we're going to do some more falling, but 368 00:22:10,537 --> 00:22:13,897 Speaker 1: I've already seen signs of the backlash. Look at what 369 00:22:13,937 --> 00:22:19,377 Speaker 1: happened with Glenn Yunkin. That's that's very inspirational. You know, 370 00:22:19,777 --> 00:22:23,337 Speaker 1: normal people see what happens. The normal people have to 371 00:22:23,337 --> 00:22:26,377 Speaker 1: get activated books like you, Folks like me, folks like 372 00:22:26,417 --> 00:22:30,297 Speaker 1: most of your listeners. We're woke, we're based, we get it, 373 00:22:30,377 --> 00:22:33,217 Speaker 1: we see the picture, we know what time it is. 374 00:22:33,337 --> 00:22:35,857 Speaker 1: But not normal people just don't really want to pay 375 00:22:35,897 --> 00:22:38,377 Speaker 1: attention to politics. And then they find out, you know, 376 00:22:38,417 --> 00:22:40,697 Speaker 1: when their kid comes home and goes, daddy, why are 377 00:22:40,737 --> 00:22:44,377 Speaker 1: you racist? That's when politics is paying attention to them. 378 00:22:44,657 --> 00:22:46,777 Speaker 1: And that's even worse when he comes, you know, little 379 00:22:46,817 --> 00:22:50,177 Speaker 1: Jimmy comes home and goes, I'm now, Julie. I identify 380 00:22:50,217 --> 00:22:53,457 Speaker 1: as non binary. At least that's according to my teacher. 381 00:22:54,377 --> 00:22:56,257 Speaker 1: By the way, we're having a drag queen come in 382 00:22:56,257 --> 00:23:00,577 Speaker 1: and read a storybook to us tomorrow in kindergarten. And 383 00:23:00,657 --> 00:23:03,777 Speaker 1: that's when normal people get motivated. So people are getting motivated. 384 00:23:04,017 --> 00:23:10,697 Speaker 1: The other thing that is a very very wonderful is 385 00:23:10,897 --> 00:23:15,697 Speaker 1: the whole uh Latinics change, and that is now our 386 00:23:15,737 --> 00:23:21,297 Speaker 1: word latinics, the Latinics change over to conservatism. Fifty percent 387 00:23:21,457 --> 00:23:26,897 Speaker 1: of Hispanic Americans are now identifying as Republican, which destroys 388 00:23:26,937 --> 00:23:30,897 Speaker 1: the Democrats because they expected to have this underclass forever 389 00:23:31,457 --> 00:23:33,577 Speaker 1: that would always vote Democrat and be happy with some 390 00:23:33,657 --> 00:23:37,457 Speaker 1: scraps off the table. But that didn't work out. And 391 00:23:37,497 --> 00:23:41,817 Speaker 1: it didn't help that, you know, the Democrats, you know, 392 00:23:42,057 --> 00:23:46,737 Speaker 1: used words like latinics un ironically, and of course addressed 393 00:23:47,057 --> 00:23:50,817 Speaker 1: his fat Americans as quote breakfast tacos, which is one 394 00:23:50,817 --> 00:23:54,617 Speaker 1: of the more bizarre formulations I've ever heard, but I'm 395 00:23:54,657 --> 00:23:58,097 Speaker 1: not here to question a doctor like doctor w I 396 00:23:58,097 --> 00:24:02,497 Speaker 1: think it was as diverse as breakfast tacos. By the way, 397 00:24:02,657 --> 00:24:07,537 Speaker 1: so what's a breakfast taco anyway? I've heard breakfast burritos 398 00:24:07,657 --> 00:24:09,777 Speaker 1: is that I don't know, maybe I'm not You can 399 00:24:09,777 --> 00:24:13,817 Speaker 1: need any time they're delicious. But how worried are you 400 00:24:13,857 --> 00:24:15,777 Speaker 1: about because you deal with this in your book, which 401 00:24:15,777 --> 00:24:18,697 Speaker 1: everybody should go and get. How arid are you about 402 00:24:18,737 --> 00:24:25,977 Speaker 1: things getting more nineteen sixty eight more violent politically speaking? Well, Buck, 403 00:24:26,017 --> 00:24:28,377 Speaker 1: you're right to ask about the late sixties, because in 404 00:24:28,457 --> 00:24:32,097 Speaker 1: late sixties early seventies in the United States actually suffered 405 00:24:32,337 --> 00:24:36,337 Speaker 1: a low grade left wing urban insurgency by groups like 406 00:24:36,377 --> 00:24:39,577 Speaker 1: the Weather Underground, the Black Panthers in Symbine's Liberation Army 407 00:24:39,777 --> 00:24:42,777 Speaker 1: with bombings and murders. Now it was handled by a 408 00:24:42,977 --> 00:24:47,697 Speaker 1: law enforcement response, it wasn't military forces criss crossing the country. 409 00:24:47,897 --> 00:24:50,817 Speaker 1: That's the further end of the spectrum. But once you 410 00:24:51,257 --> 00:24:55,137 Speaker 1: the way you get to that spectrum is what we're seeing. 411 00:24:55,537 --> 00:24:58,617 Speaker 1: When you know, Kavanaugh's trying to eat his wedge salad 412 00:24:58,777 --> 00:25:01,497 Speaker 1: and his ribi and mortons, and some knit wi comes 413 00:25:01,537 --> 00:25:04,937 Speaker 1: up and starts screaming at him and trying to intimidate him. 414 00:25:05,057 --> 00:25:08,457 Speaker 1: Instead of using persuasion and political process, he's trying to 415 00:25:08,537 --> 00:25:15,417 Speaker 1: use fear to get a political goal realized. And okay, 416 00:25:15,537 --> 00:25:18,617 Speaker 1: get in his face, all right, what's the boundary? It 417 00:25:18,697 --> 00:25:21,617 Speaker 1: stops you from slapping his face, and then what's the boundary? 418 00:25:21,657 --> 00:25:24,337 Speaker 1: That stopped you from shooting him in the face. There 419 00:25:24,457 --> 00:25:27,537 Speaker 1: is there is no firm boundary. Once you've accept the 420 00:25:27,577 --> 00:25:30,297 Speaker 1: principle that you can force somebody else to comply to 421 00:25:30,297 --> 00:25:35,097 Speaker 1: your will. That power is the currency, not debate and 422 00:25:35,257 --> 00:25:38,497 Speaker 1: not reason and not argument. And that's where you get 423 00:25:38,537 --> 00:25:42,497 Speaker 1: the problem of a potential civil conflict. It's happened, and 424 00:25:42,577 --> 00:25:45,457 Speaker 1: it could happen again. Anytime we talk about even the 425 00:25:45,537 --> 00:25:48,257 Speaker 1: risk of a civil conflict, it's almost as though the 426 00:25:48,377 --> 00:25:50,657 Speaker 1: Left claims that that is a call for it. Saying 427 00:25:50,817 --> 00:25:55,377 Speaker 1: I'm worried about is somehow tantamount too. They want this 428 00:25:55,457 --> 00:25:57,577 Speaker 1: to happen. Meanwhile, they get to talk about this all 429 00:25:57,617 --> 00:26:00,217 Speaker 1: the time. New York Times released this report in January 430 00:26:00,297 --> 00:26:03,457 Speaker 1: last month, three retired generals or the US military needs 431 00:26:03,457 --> 00:26:06,697 Speaker 1: to start preparing for the possibility of internal breakdown over 432 00:26:06,697 --> 00:26:09,137 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four elections. Some might follow orders from 433 00:26:09,137 --> 00:26:12,617 Speaker 1: the rifle commander, and others might follow the Trumpian loser. 434 00:26:13,057 --> 00:26:14,857 Speaker 1: Under such a scenario, it as not outlined as to 435 00:26:14,857 --> 00:26:19,337 Speaker 1: say a military breakdown could lead to civil wars. So basically, 436 00:26:19,377 --> 00:26:21,817 Speaker 1: this is The York Times telling us in January that 437 00:26:21,857 --> 00:26:23,737 Speaker 1: there are generals who are saying we may have a 438 00:26:23,777 --> 00:26:26,457 Speaker 1: civil war if the Democrat loses in twenty twenty four. 439 00:26:26,897 --> 00:26:28,657 Speaker 1: Oh but of course it's going to be the Trumpian 440 00:26:28,737 --> 00:26:32,257 Speaker 1: loser's fault. Yeah, of course, the guy on Trump's side, 441 00:26:32,857 --> 00:26:35,577 Speaker 1: the guy in the wrong. Well, you know, I don't 442 00:26:35,577 --> 00:26:39,457 Speaker 1: have to pretend to respect generals simply because they're generals anymore. 443 00:26:39,777 --> 00:26:42,297 Speaker 1: And there are a lot of Obama and Bush generals 444 00:26:42,337 --> 00:26:44,937 Speaker 1: out there who deserve nothing but our contempt. I mean, 445 00:26:45,017 --> 00:26:46,737 Speaker 1: he got a pity them. They've gone through their entire 446 00:26:46,777 --> 00:26:50,137 Speaker 1: career and never won a war. So you know, they 447 00:26:50,217 --> 00:26:52,737 Speaker 1: probably feel bad about themselves and are trying to make 448 00:26:52,777 --> 00:26:55,617 Speaker 1: it up. And they should feel bad about themselves because 449 00:26:55,617 --> 00:26:59,257 Speaker 1: they've destroyed the United States military. Restoring the military is 450 00:26:59,297 --> 00:27:02,337 Speaker 1: step one for the Trumpian winner is going to come 451 00:27:02,337 --> 00:27:08,897 Speaker 1: along in twenty twenty four. The herd question I have is, 452 00:27:09,777 --> 00:27:12,057 Speaker 1: who are these troops that you guys are going to 453 00:27:12,177 --> 00:27:16,897 Speaker 1: have follow you to throw out the Trumpian winner When 454 00:27:16,937 --> 00:27:19,977 Speaker 1: the New York Times declares him illegitimate, like they declare 455 00:27:20,017 --> 00:27:24,137 Speaker 1: every Republican illegitimate. Where where are they're gonna come from? 456 00:27:24,337 --> 00:27:27,217 Speaker 1: Is it going to be you know, somebody from you know, 457 00:27:27,257 --> 00:27:31,177 Speaker 1: one of the new people who has special pronouns or 458 00:27:31,897 --> 00:27:35,177 Speaker 1: is it gonna because normal soldiers, to extent they remain 459 00:27:35,257 --> 00:27:37,737 Speaker 1: in the military, aren't going to go for that, and 460 00:27:37,777 --> 00:27:39,537 Speaker 1: they're not going to follow that kind of leader. I 461 00:27:39,577 --> 00:27:42,217 Speaker 1: talk about this and a lot of other issues in detail, 462 00:27:42,257 --> 00:27:45,457 Speaker 1: and we'll be Backfall and Rise of America and uh, 463 00:27:45,777 --> 00:27:48,217 Speaker 1: you know, when you when you go through the thought exercise, 464 00:27:49,937 --> 00:27:53,537 Speaker 1: it's a it's a very scary process. I think at 465 00:27:53,537 --> 00:27:57,697 Speaker 1: the end, the Red Forces for better, you know, to 466 00:27:57,737 --> 00:28:01,377 Speaker 1: the extent that's a good name for them, will probably prevail. 467 00:28:02,257 --> 00:28:05,297 Speaker 1: But it's a very ugly scenario. I have a better idea. 468 00:28:05,497 --> 00:28:08,577 Speaker 1: How about we try Oh, I don't know the constitution. 469 00:28:09,737 --> 00:28:12,017 Speaker 1: That be a good idea. It seems like a smart 470 00:28:12,057 --> 00:28:14,777 Speaker 1: idea to me. We've been blessed with the greatest political 471 00:28:14,817 --> 00:28:18,617 Speaker 1: document ever written. Maybe we ought to use it. Seems 472 00:28:18,657 --> 00:28:19,937 Speaker 1: like a good idea to me. Kurt. You know what 473 00:28:19,977 --> 00:28:22,057 Speaker 1: else sounds like a good idea.

President 498 00:29:32,017 --> 00:29:34,017 Speaker 1: Biden will make his first visit to the Middle East 499 00:29:34,017 --> 00:29:36,457 Speaker 1: this week as commander in chief. Will arrive in Israel 500 00:29:36,537 --> 00:29:39,017 Speaker 1: tomorrow kick off his four day to or meeting with 501 00:29:39,057 --> 00:29:42,097 Speaker 1: the country's new prime minister and other top leaders. Despite 502 00:29:42,097 --> 00:29:44,937 Speaker 1: major criticism, Biden will also make a controversial visit to 503 00:29:44,977 --> 00:29:48,857 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia. President defended his decision in a Washington Post 504 00:29:48,857 --> 00:29:51,577 Speaker 1: op ed this weekend, writing, as president, it is my 505 00:29:51,697 --> 00:29:54,257 Speaker 1: job to keep our country strong and secure. We have 506 00:29:54,297 --> 00:29:57,057 Speaker 1: to counter Russia's aggression, put ourselves in the best possible 507 00:29:57,057 --> 00:30:00,297 Speaker 1: position to outcompete China, and work for greater stability in 508 00:30:00,297 --> 00:30:04,137 Speaker 1: a con consequential region of the world. To do these things, 509 00:30:04,137 --> 00:30:06,337 Speaker 1: we have to engage directly with countries that can impact 510 00:30:06,417 --> 00:30:08,737 Speaker 1: those outcomes. Saudi Arabia is one of them, and when 511 00:30:08,737 --> 00:30:11,097 Speaker 1: I meet with Saudi leaders, my will be to strengthen 512 00:30:11,457 --> 00:30:14,537 Speaker 1: a strategic partnership going forward that's based on mutual interests 513 00:30:14,537 --> 00:30:19,937 Speaker 1: and responsibilities while also holding true to fundamental American value. Okay, 514 00:30:20,577 --> 00:30:23,337 Speaker 1: let's unpack all that stuff that his staff wrote for 515 00:30:23,417 --> 00:30:25,257 Speaker 1: him in that op ed. Joining me now with reaction. 516 00:30:25,777 --> 00:30:28,337 Speaker 1: Publisher of The New York Sun, David I. Foon David 517 00:30:28,377 --> 00:30:31,897 Speaker 1: could to see him sold you to be with you. Buck. 518 00:30:32,337 --> 00:30:35,737 Speaker 1: Let's just if we can start with the stop in Israel, 519 00:30:35,937 --> 00:30:39,577 Speaker 1: the new prime minister, the new situation over there, and 520 00:30:39,697 --> 00:30:43,697 Speaker 1: how Biden so far is doing from the Israeli perspective, 521 00:30:43,697 --> 00:30:48,457 Speaker 1: what would you say, Well, look, there's no question that 522 00:30:48,537 --> 00:30:51,337 Speaker 1: it's a big step back from how things were going 523 00:30:51,617 --> 00:30:56,297 Speaker 1: under the previous administration. From the Israeli perspective. Having said that, 524 00:30:56,377 --> 00:30:58,937 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem they've paid a great deal of attention 525 00:30:58,977 --> 00:31:02,177 Speaker 1: to the issue. Interestingly, there is a lot of political 526 00:31:02,257 --> 00:31:05,697 Speaker 1: turmoil in Israel and there are a lot of sort 527 00:31:05,697 --> 00:31:09,857 Speaker 1: of side issues that are going on, certainly Biden's in 528 00:31:10,377 --> 00:31:13,897 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia and in raising the production of oil. But 529 00:31:13,977 --> 00:31:17,857 Speaker 1: there is one massive elephant in the room, and that's 530 00:31:17,897 --> 00:31:20,897 Speaker 1: an elephant that everybody in Israel is aligned on, you know, 531 00:31:20,937 --> 00:31:22,617 Speaker 1: from the right to the left, all the different prime 532 00:31:22,617 --> 00:31:26,777 Speaker 1: ministers and political parties. There's very little deviance on this issue, 533 00:31:26,857 --> 00:31:29,577 Speaker 1: and that's the Iranian nuclear threat. And I think that's 534 00:31:29,617 --> 00:31:33,417 Speaker 1: where Biden is going to hit the harsh rocks of 535 00:31:33,457 --> 00:31:36,337 Speaker 1: the Middle East reality because the way that they are 536 00:31:36,457 --> 00:31:40,737 Speaker 1: dealing with the Iranian ducket is let's just say insane 537 00:31:40,857 --> 00:31:43,217 Speaker 1: in the view of both the Israelis and the Saudis. 538 00:31:43,537 --> 00:31:45,897 Speaker 1: Can you dive into that first a little bit, Dovid, 539 00:31:46,377 --> 00:31:48,857 Speaker 1: What has the Biden administration, because you know, the only 540 00:31:48,857 --> 00:31:52,257 Speaker 1: foreign policy issue that really gets any attention these days 541 00:31:52,257 --> 00:31:55,257 Speaker 1: in the media is obviously the Ukraine Russia war. What 542 00:31:55,377 --> 00:32:00,977 Speaker 1: has the Biden policy been toward Iran, toward the Mullus Well, 543 00:32:01,017 --> 00:32:03,137 Speaker 1: just so you know, you know, there were reports the 544 00:32:03,137 --> 00:32:06,617 Speaker 1: other day that Iran is starting to arm the Russians 545 00:32:06,617 --> 00:32:10,937 Speaker 1: and provide you drones and upgraded drone technology. So it's 546 00:32:10,977 --> 00:32:14,297 Speaker 1: not unconnected. It's not unrelated. And obviously, you know, the 547 00:32:14,337 --> 00:32:16,377 Speaker 1: price of gas and the impact that the war has 548 00:32:16,457 --> 00:32:20,697 Speaker 1: and the ability that the Saudis have to create some 549 00:32:20,777 --> 00:32:24,857 Speaker 1: relief globally is all sort of very intimately intertwined. But 550 00:32:24,977 --> 00:32:27,697 Speaker 1: in terms of what the administration has been doing, I mean, 551 00:32:27,977 --> 00:32:33,217 Speaker 1: they seem to be help bent on reviving this discarded 552 00:32:33,337 --> 00:32:36,257 Speaker 1: nuclear deal that wasn't great when it was first sign 553 00:32:36,337 --> 00:32:40,257 Speaker 1: was damaging when it was first signed. Certainly now that 554 00:32:40,417 --> 00:32:42,857 Speaker 1: everybody seems to have moved on, first and foremost the 555 00:32:42,857 --> 00:32:46,897 Speaker 1: Iranians in terms of just ramping up their activity. First 556 00:32:46,937 --> 00:32:51,137 Speaker 1: of all, their nuclear development activity, but also their malign 557 00:32:51,177 --> 00:32:53,937 Speaker 1: activity in the region. I mean you're talking about, you know, 558 00:32:53,977 --> 00:32:56,657 Speaker 1: strikes on our allies in herbal and the UAE, and 559 00:32:56,657 --> 00:33:00,657 Speaker 1: in Saudi Arabia, you're talking about harassment of US vessels. 560 00:33:00,697 --> 00:33:04,257 Speaker 1: I mean, the Iranians have just ratcheted up any negative 561 00:33:04,297 --> 00:33:08,097 Speaker 1: activity that we've seen. And you know, the Biden administration 562 00:33:08,217 --> 00:33:10,977 Speaker 1: just is hanging on to this ill and just saying, 563 00:33:11,057 --> 00:33:13,737 Speaker 1: please love us back, please love us back. It's time 564 00:33:13,737 --> 00:33:16,497 Speaker 1: to move on. And certainly there's a lot of frustration 565 00:33:16,697 --> 00:33:19,977 Speaker 1: fear in the region over this issue. If the president 566 00:33:20,097 --> 00:33:22,337 Speaker 1: has to run an op ed in advance of a 567 00:33:22,337 --> 00:33:26,417 Speaker 1: trip to Saudi Arabia, David feels like there must be 568 00:33:26,497 --> 00:33:30,657 Speaker 1: something up here. Why is Biden so sensitive about this 569 00:33:30,657 --> 00:33:34,057 Speaker 1: trip to Saudi Arabia that he would have staffer's right, 570 00:33:34,297 --> 00:33:41,457 Speaker 1: almost an appologia before he even has the trip. Well, look, 571 00:33:41,977 --> 00:33:44,977 Speaker 1: Biden's in trouble. I mean, you've got the price of 572 00:33:45,017 --> 00:33:47,537 Speaker 1: gas and the impact that that has on the economy. 573 00:33:48,137 --> 00:33:51,657 Speaker 1: Certainly that's the biggest domestic political issue that he faces 574 00:33:51,737 --> 00:33:56,897 Speaker 1: right now. The Saudis besides for drilling in America, which 575 00:33:56,937 --> 00:34:00,297 Speaker 1: is the obvious solution. But for whatever reason, this administration 576 00:34:00,337 --> 00:34:04,537 Speaker 1: has helped on avoiding that. So really the only country 577 00:34:04,537 --> 00:34:06,457 Speaker 1: that can make a difference of the Saudis. I mean, 578 00:34:06,497 --> 00:34:09,577 Speaker 1: the Saudis output, you know, in terms of millions of 579 00:34:10,097 --> 00:34:13,857 Speaker 1: arrels of oil per day is far more significant than 580 00:34:13,937 --> 00:34:16,737 Speaker 1: any other country besides the United States. I mean, they 581 00:34:16,817 --> 00:34:20,137 Speaker 1: have the ability to turn up and down you know, 582 00:34:20,217 --> 00:34:24,017 Speaker 1: the equivalent of four million barrels a day, So that 583 00:34:24,057 --> 00:34:26,417 Speaker 1: can make a real impact on the price of oil 584 00:34:26,457 --> 00:34:29,697 Speaker 1: and the economic issues of Biden is facing. So really, 585 00:34:30,137 --> 00:34:33,177 Speaker 1: the Saudis in a way hold the keys to a 586 00:34:33,217 --> 00:34:35,777 Speaker 1: lot of the challenges that this administration is faced with. 587 00:34:36,177 --> 00:34:39,977 Speaker 1: Now when they come, you know, the Saudi's response will 588 00:34:40,017 --> 00:34:42,337 Speaker 1: be listen, you know, we're happy with the price of 589 00:34:42,337 --> 00:34:46,657 Speaker 1: oil being high, so and we're really concerned with the 590 00:34:46,697 --> 00:34:49,337 Speaker 1: way that you're dealing with Iran. So it may be 591 00:34:49,497 --> 00:34:53,497 Speaker 1: that these two agendas that the Biden administration has, you know, 592 00:34:53,617 --> 00:34:59,337 Speaker 1: chasing the Iranian nuclear deal and basically not allowing any 593 00:34:59,377 --> 00:35:01,297 Speaker 1: drilling in this country are going to come into conflict 594 00:35:01,297 --> 00:35:04,617 Speaker 1: with each other. So it'll be interesting to see what 595 00:35:05,097 --> 00:35:10,657 Speaker 1: path the Biden administration takes. And from Biden's op ed 596 00:35:11,177 --> 00:35:14,537 Speaker 1: op ed published under his name, from start My aim 597 00:35:14,577 --> 00:35:17,137 Speaker 1: was to reorient, but not rupture relations with a country 598 00:35:17,137 --> 00:35:19,817 Speaker 1: that has been a strategic partner for eighty years. Today, 599 00:35:19,817 --> 00:35:21,897 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia has helped to restore a unity among the 600 00:35:21,937 --> 00:35:25,097 Speaker 1: six countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council and is now 601 00:35:25,137 --> 00:35:27,817 Speaker 1: working with my experts to help stabilize oil markets with 602 00:35:27,857 --> 00:35:30,337 Speaker 1: other OPEC producers. I know that there are many who 603 00:35:30,337 --> 00:35:32,337 Speaker 1: disagree with my decision to travel as Audi Arabia. My 604 00:35:32,417 --> 00:35:35,297 Speaker 1: views on human rights are clear and longstanding, and fundamental 605 00:35:35,337 --> 00:35:39,177 Speaker 1: freedoms are always on the agenda when I travel abroad. Okay, 606 00:35:39,177 --> 00:35:43,137 Speaker 1: but I mean I remember David when under the Trump administration, 607 00:35:43,457 --> 00:35:47,857 Speaker 1: anything short of a of a total diplomatic freeze because 608 00:35:47,857 --> 00:35:51,897 Speaker 1: of the Jamal Kashogie incident was proof that Trump wasn't 609 00:35:51,897 --> 00:35:54,777 Speaker 1: only in Russia's pocket, he was in the saudiast pocket too. 610 00:35:55,417 --> 00:35:58,417 Speaker 1: Now Biden goes over there, and I guess most of 611 00:35:58,457 --> 00:36:01,257 Speaker 1: the Democrats and immediate at least are going to say, well, 612 00:36:01,297 --> 00:36:06,017 Speaker 1: you know, it's important, so he's got to go. Yeah. 613 00:36:06,057 --> 00:36:08,417 Speaker 1: I mean, that's absolutely the case. I mean, Saudi Arabia 614 00:36:08,497 --> 00:36:12,017 Speaker 1: is definitely not the paragon or human rights, as is 615 00:36:12,097 --> 00:36:14,097 Speaker 1: the case with most in the region. It's true that 616 00:36:14,177 --> 00:36:17,057 Speaker 1: Saudis seem to be headed in the right direction as 617 00:36:17,057 --> 00:36:20,137 Speaker 1: opposed to the Iranians that are, you know, running at 618 00:36:20,217 --> 00:36:23,537 Speaker 1: sixty miles an hour in the other direction. Having said that, 619 00:36:23,657 --> 00:36:26,697 Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't mean that we're excusing it. They 620 00:36:26,697 --> 00:36:29,257 Speaker 1: happen to be a very important strategic ally for the 621 00:36:29,337 --> 00:36:33,417 Speaker 1: United States, and it affects, you know, our national security, 622 00:36:33,457 --> 00:36:36,657 Speaker 1: it affects the national security of our allies, and you know, 623 00:36:36,737 --> 00:36:39,697 Speaker 1: they hold the key to some of the fundamental issues 624 00:36:39,697 --> 00:36:44,017 Speaker 1: that are facing our country. The Saudis are not going 625 00:36:44,057 --> 00:36:46,977 Speaker 1: to be flattered by the kind language and you know, 626 00:36:47,057 --> 00:36:52,377 Speaker 1: whatever flowery you know outreach the Biden administration of pride 627 00:36:52,377 --> 00:36:55,537 Speaker 1: in himself is publishing in the Washington Post. You know 628 00:36:55,577 --> 00:36:59,657 Speaker 1: they're going to want, you know, solid concrete guarantees. You know, 629 00:36:59,697 --> 00:37:03,097 Speaker 1: their security is at risk. You know, the future stability 630 00:37:03,097 --> 00:37:04,937 Speaker 1: of their country is at risk. You know, they're looking 631 00:37:04,937 --> 00:37:07,937 Speaker 1: at the region and they're seeing Iraq being overrun by 632 00:37:07,977 --> 00:37:12,257 Speaker 1: the Iranians. They're seeing m yeahmen, of course, and they're 633 00:37:12,257 --> 00:37:14,017 Speaker 1: trying to fight back against that. I mean, there are 634 00:37:14,017 --> 00:37:18,057 Speaker 1: threats in other countries, including Bahrain. Certainly Lebanon is under 635 00:37:18,057 --> 00:37:20,097 Speaker 1: the sway of the Iranian series under the sway of 636 00:37:20,137 --> 00:37:24,737 Speaker 1: the Iranians. So there is a newse that's tightening around them, 637 00:37:24,777 --> 00:37:28,097 Speaker 1: and they're in obviously presents also a great deal of alignment, 638 00:37:28,137 --> 00:37:30,937 Speaker 1: not just with the West, but you know with Israel 639 00:37:31,017 --> 00:37:33,257 Speaker 1: as well. And you know we've seen some talks today 640 00:37:33,297 --> 00:37:36,377 Speaker 1: that there may be some advancement in terms of Israeli 641 00:37:36,417 --> 00:37:38,777 Speaker 1: Sadly relations. So you know, I think this is going 642 00:37:38,817 --> 00:37:41,577 Speaker 1: to boil down to a really hard nosed discussion. We 643 00:37:41,657 --> 00:37:45,457 Speaker 1: can help you, but we have fundamental existential threats on 644 00:37:45,497 --> 00:37:48,377 Speaker 1: our doorstep and you need to take them seriously, and 645 00:37:48,457 --> 00:37:51,697 Speaker 1: you need to reconsider your whole approach to it. Run David, 646 00:37:51,817 --> 00:37:57,177 Speaker 1: thanks for being with us. Always a pleasure. But why 647 00:37:57,257 --> 00:38:00,217 Speaker 1: Senator Herodo insisted it's ridiculous to refer to the founding 648 00:38:00,257 --> 00:38:04,337 Speaker 1: fathers when interpreting the Constitution that they wrote. We have 649 00:38:04,417 --> 00:38:10,337 Speaker 1: that story and more coming up at quicket. A Berkeley 650 00:38:10,417 --> 00:38:14,497 Speaker 1: law professor calls Senator Josh Halley transphobic during a testy 651 00:38:14,657 --> 00:38:19,377 Speaker 1: Senate hearing exchange, and Chicago Mayor Laurie Lightfoot compares overturning 652 00:38:19,497 --> 00:38:23,257 Speaker 1: Row to slavery. Oh gosh, all right, we got a 653 00:38:23,257 --> 00:38:25,977 Speaker 1: bunch of things to get to hear in quick hits. 654 00:38:26,857 --> 00:38:29,857 Speaker 1: Let's just say, as we're gonna lean into this one, 655 00:38:30,617 --> 00:38:34,577 Speaker 1: there are a lot of very dumb people in congres. Unfortunate, 656 00:38:34,617 --> 00:38:38,697 Speaker 1: but it's truth. It's a remarkable thing to be likely 657 00:38:38,897 --> 00:38:41,777 Speaker 1: the single dumbest member of the entire United States Congress. 658 00:38:42,817 --> 00:38:47,777 Speaker 1: But Maizie Horono is a strong contender for that role, 659 00:38:48,057 --> 00:38:52,217 Speaker 1: that award, if you will, the single dumbest member of 660 00:38:52,217 --> 00:38:55,177 Speaker 1: the United States Congress. Here she is the Senator from 661 00:38:55,257 --> 00:38:58,777 Speaker 1: Hawaii insisting that it is ridiculous to refer to the 662 00:38:58,777 --> 00:39:04,617 Speaker 1: founding fathers when interpreting the Constitution that they wrote launched originalism. 663 00:39:05,817 --> 00:39:08,337 Speaker 1: Justice says, who take that approach, go all the way 664 00:39:08,377 --> 00:39:13,257 Speaker 1: back to our founding fathers and pretend that they know 665 00:39:13,457 --> 00:39:18,737 Speaker 1: what our founding fathers meant when they drafted the Constitution. 666 00:39:19,777 --> 00:39:21,777 Speaker 1: I use the word pretend, because who the heck was 667 00:39:21,817 --> 00:39:26,577 Speaker 1: should would know what our founding fathers meant. Is there 668 00:39:26,617 --> 00:39:31,257 Speaker 1: any reference to R fifteen rifles in our Constitution? No? 669 00:39:33,577 --> 00:39:36,737 Speaker 1: Is there any reference to R fifteens. Let's just say 670 00:39:36,777 --> 00:39:40,417 Speaker 1: there wasn't reference to R fifteens. But then let's say 671 00:39:40,577 --> 00:39:44,017 Speaker 1: that they changed the name. Let's say somebody came out 672 00:39:44,097 --> 00:39:50,857 Speaker 1: and they were trying to tell aar with that no longer. 673 00:39:51,457 --> 00:39:55,377 Speaker 1: At some point you just wonder how anyone could vote 674 00:39:55,497 --> 00:39:58,817 Speaker 1: for Mazie Herrono and think that that was an intelligent 675 00:39:58,857 --> 00:40:02,977 Speaker 1: thing to do. Anyway, here's the Mayor of Chicago, Lori Lightfoot, 676 00:40:03,497 --> 00:40:08,617 Speaker 1: comparing the overturning of Row slavery. There's been some notion 677 00:40:09,257 --> 00:40:13,177 Speaker 1: out there in state other state legislatures that they are 678 00:40:13,257 --> 00:40:19,537 Speaker 1: going to bring legal action against healthcare providers and against 679 00:40:19,537 --> 00:40:23,137 Speaker 1: women themselves if they travel outside of states where abortion 680 00:40:23,297 --> 00:40:27,337 Speaker 1: is banned, to a city like Chicago or state like Illinois. 681 00:40:27,537 --> 00:40:29,937 Speaker 1: I mean, I have to tell you, as an African American, 682 00:40:30,257 --> 00:40:33,497 Speaker 1: what I hear when I hear that is fugitive slave laws. 683 00:40:33,817 --> 00:40:37,017 Speaker 1: Like we're back in the day where they're chasing people 684 00:40:37,177 --> 00:40:45,617 Speaker 1: who are seeking freedom. It's the same kind of dynamic here. Wow. Yes, 685 00:40:46,017 --> 00:40:48,257 Speaker 1: that's what they're saying there. The ability to abort a 686 00:40:48,337 --> 00:40:51,937 Speaker 1: child in the womb is like the basic human freedom 687 00:40:52,017 --> 00:40:58,137 Speaker 1: of not being enslaved. Yeah, these are things that Democrats say. 688 00:40:58,697 --> 00:41:02,057 Speaker 1: This was amazing today with Senator Josh Holly. Berkeley law 689 00:41:02,097 --> 00:41:08,257 Speaker 1: professor Guerra Bridges called Senator Holly transphobic when they were 690 00:41:08,257 --> 00:41:11,137 Speaker 1: talking about abortion rights, women rights, well as it really 691 00:41:11,137 --> 00:41:13,137 Speaker 1: just women? Know, Actually abortions rights are for more than 692 00:41:13,177 --> 00:41:16,297 Speaker 1: just women. The left says, watch this. Do you believe 693 00:41:16,377 --> 00:41:20,897 Speaker 1: that men can get pregnant? No? I don't think trans 694 00:41:20,897 --> 00:41:22,817 Speaker 1: people like this thing and that leads to violence. Is 695 00:41:22,817 --> 00:41:25,137 Speaker 1: this how you run your classroom? Or students allowed to 696 00:41:25,257 --> 00:41:27,617 Speaker 1: question you? Or are they also treated like this or 697 00:41:27,977 --> 00:41:30,777 Speaker 1: they're told that they're opening up people too? Violence? We 698 00:41:30,897 --> 00:41:32,777 Speaker 1: have a good time in my class. You should join. 699 00:41:33,177 --> 00:41:35,777 Speaker 1: You might learn a lot. Wow, I would learn a lot. 700 00:41:35,817 --> 00:41:44,137 Speaker 1: I've learned a lot. Extraordinary women can get pregnant. Men cannot. 701 00:41:44,537 --> 00:41:47,457 Speaker 1: They can try to tell us a million different ways 702 00:41:47,497 --> 00:41:49,777 Speaker 1: why that's not true, but it will always be true. 703 00:41:50,057 --> 00:41:53,457 Speaker 1: And then we actually got into this the same law 704 00:41:53,497 --> 00:41:56,977 Speaker 1: professor here refusing to answer Senator Cornyn's question about the 705 00:41:57,057 --> 00:42:00,017 Speaker 1: unborn having value. Watch and do you think do you 706 00:42:00,057 --> 00:42:08,897 Speaker 1: think a baby that is delivered alive has value? Yes? 707 00:42:10,097 --> 00:42:13,337 Speaker 1: Do you think that a baby that is not yet 708 00:42:13,457 --> 00:42:17,297 Speaker 1: born has value? I believe that a person with a 709 00:42:17,337 --> 00:42:21,657 Speaker 1: capacity for pregnancy has value. They have intelligence, they have agency. 710 00:42:21,777 --> 00:42:23,777 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the baby and I'm talking about the 711 00:42:23,777 --> 00:42:26,537 Speaker 1: person with a capacity. You're not answering the question I'm asking, 712 00:42:26,537 --> 00:42:30,977 Speaker 1: I'm answering it more interesting. You think that the baby 713 00:42:31,017 --> 00:42:33,977 Speaker 1: that is not yet born, let's say the day before 714 00:42:34,257 --> 00:42:37,697 Speaker 1: there's mother delivers, do you think that baby has value? 715 00:42:38,097 --> 00:42:40,097 Speaker 1: I think that the person with a capacity for pregnancy 716 00:42:40,137 --> 00:42:42,377 Speaker 1: has value, and they have they should have the ability 717 00:42:42,417 --> 00:42:45,977 Speaker 1: to control what happens to their life. The person who 718 00:42:46,017 --> 00:42:49,457 Speaker 1: has the ability have a pregnancy to be able to control. 719 00:42:49,617 --> 00:42:52,377 Speaker 1: Noticed that the pro abortion advocate that they don't even 720 00:42:52,537 --> 00:42:57,097 Speaker 1: speak in in plain English. It's always this circular. A 721 00:42:57,217 --> 00:43:00,737 Speaker 1: person with a possible capacity for maybe having children. It's 722 00:43:00,857 --> 00:43:03,777 Speaker 1: it's called a woman. That's everything. I hold the line 723 00:43:03,777 --> 00:43:21,297 Speaker 1: the nose venws that Bill O'Reilly is next, Shields high
