1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. Oh man, it's 2 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:09,720 Speaker 1: a Friday Rejoice. But I'm looking up at all the news. 3 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 2: Buck. 4 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 1: The airlines are just in an uproar. It is the 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 1: lead story right now on Fox. I got an email. 6 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,959 Speaker 1: I was just joking with people off the air I 7 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: got an email from the airline I'm supposed to fly 8 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: in a little bit, and they were just like, hey, 9 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: basically in the email, we're not really sure the plane's 10 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: gonna go take off. You might want to consider other 11 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 1: airlines and just have backup plans in place. It's I 12 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: don't know that I've ever gotten emails like this. I mean, 13 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: it's one thing to have delays, it's another thing for 14 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: your airline to be like, hey, yeah, so we may 15 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: or may not be able to take off today. You 16 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: might want to have multiple airline flights a different airlines booked. 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: Oh boy, So I imagine that a lot of you 18 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: out there are dealing with this with and family as well. 19 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: So that chaos is underway. Let's give me a couple 20 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: of positives here, Buck. I know that w R listeners 21 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: in New York City have been unhappy with me because 22 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: I told you all that we were going to see 23 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: an absolute destruction of Curtis Liwa, and that occurred, and 24 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: that Mom Donnie was going to win unless he was 25 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: going head to head with only one person, even if 26 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: it was the awful Andrew Cuomo. But those of you 27 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: who have been listening for a while will remember that 28 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: I said there was a shining better day to come 29 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: for New Yorkers even if Mom Donnie won. And I 30 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: said because I really do think it will open the 31 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: door to winning a more significant office, which is the 32 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: governorship and the governorship of New York with the awful 33 00:01:54,600 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: Kathy Hokel in office, who basically decapitated Andrew Cuomo over 34 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: this sexual harassment scandal that wasn't actually in the grand 35 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: scheme of things that bad. I mean, what Cuomo did 36 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 1: during COVID was infinitely worse than any of the allegations 37 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: against him relating to sexual harassment. So now we have 38 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: the awful Kathy Hochel as governor, maybe the worst governor 39 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: in America, which is obviously JB. Pritzker, Gretchen Whitmer, Gavin Newsom. 40 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: There's a lot of people I think we could toss 41 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: out there and say are in that mix. But this 42 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: morning on Fox and Friends. I don't think it's coincidental 43 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: on her timing. Alis Stephonic, former New York Congressman. She 44 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: would have been the ambassador to the UN, but she 45 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: decided to go back to Congress to help because the 46 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: majority was not very substantial there. She has announced that 47 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: she is running for governor to make New York affordable 48 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: and safe. She did that this morning, Buck, this was 49 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 1: a positive Let's listen, cut one. 50 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 3: I'm running for governor to make New York affordable and safe. 51 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: We have seen decades of single party rule led by Democrats, 52 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 3: and Kathy Hokl is the worst governor in a mayora. 53 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 3: New York is the most unaffordable state in the nation, 54 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 3: with the highest taxes, the highest energy bills, the highest 55 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 3: utility bills. We also have a crime crisis because Kathy 56 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 3: Hochel has brought us failed bail reform and has embraced 57 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 3: the defrom the police, Democrats, and after this week Ainsley, 58 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 3: when we saw a raging anti semi prohamas communist who 59 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 3: wants to raise taxes and frankly he barely won the 60 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 3: majority of New York City voters. Kathy Hokl endorsed him 61 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 3: and bent the Nie. She has failed New Yorkers. 62 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 4: I think that's right. 63 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: And so if you are a frustrated New York voter 64 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: right now, if you are a New York City area resident, 65 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: and you are thinking to yourself, oh my goodness, this 66 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: is awful. Next year the state gets the opportunity to 67 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: punch back and react to what happened in New York City. 68 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: And I do think that Alice Stephonic would be an 69 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: incredible choice for New York. She is infinitely better than 70 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: Kathy Hochel. She's gonna be fighting an uphill battle. But 71 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: oftentimes election cycle swing from one direction to another, and 72 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: electing a communist in New York City, maybe you want 73 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: to elect then a decently reasonable, rational person to be governor. 74 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: So I wanted to start with that buck because I 75 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: wanted to start with at least some positivity after a 76 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: tough week. 77 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 4: So there you go. 78 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: The positivity is I do think this helps a least 79 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: stefanic a great deal that Mom Donnie won. It would 80 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: be so nice for the Empire state to return to 81 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: a place of sanity. You're never going to get Texas 82 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: or Florida policies in New York. 83 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 4: Although wouldn't that be nice? But you will be able to, 84 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 4: I think, have a very close contest in the next 85 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 4: governor's race, because one HOCl is terrible and two Stefanic 86 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 4: is a pretty talented and solid choice that's right to 87 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 4: run on the Republican side, So that that is good. 88 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 4: And also to your point about how this has been 89 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 4: a tough week. We lost races we were supposed to lose. 90 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 4: There was no big shock or surprise at all, and 91 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 4: that's just the way it's going to go sometimes. So 92 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 4: we dust ourselves off, we move forward. Remember Trump is 93 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 4: still in charge, He's still doing great things, and one 94 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 4: of them is just pointing out this has cut three 95 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 4: Clay that Nancy Pelosi's retirement is perhaps the greatest act 96 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 4: of patriotism she has ever she has ever made. Play three. 97 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 5: I think she's an evil woman. I'm glad she's retiring. 98 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 5: I think she did the country a great service by retire. 99 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 5: I think she was a tremendous liability for the country. 100 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 5: I thought she was an evil woman who did a 101 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 5: poor job to cross the country a lot in damages 102 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 5: and in reputation. I thought she was terrible, Thank you 103 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 5: very much. 104 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 4: I like that he's just letting him rip. Look, she's retiring, 105 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 4: he's not. He's not at a at a at a 106 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 4: situation here where he has to say nice things, and 107 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 4: he's not going to say nice things because those would 108 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 4: be untrue. Nancy Pelosi has been deeply destructive to the country, 109 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 4: and I think it'll be a better place without her 110 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 4: wielding the iron fist of Pelosi over the Democrats in 111 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 4: the House. So let's see that Democrats really are without 112 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 4: Pelosi running cover and keeping them from being completely insane 113 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 4: in public before elections. I do think. 114 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: It has to really gall Nancy Pelosi that she had 115 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: to step down as Trump is at his most descendant power. 116 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 4: That's kind of a you know, chef's kiss. 117 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: If I were Trump advisor there, I would say, you 118 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: know what, I love that Nancy Pelosi recognized that it's 119 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: time for her to step down, and I couldn't think 120 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: it's better for the country that she's leaving the fight 121 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: right as she recognizes that I've won all the battles. 122 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: I wish Nancy well in retirement, and the biggest loss 123 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: we're going to have with Nancy is I've been trying 124 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: to figure out how to be as good of an 125 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: investor as her. I don't know what we're all gonna 126 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: do without having the Nancy Pelosi stock tracker out there 127 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: to make us all rich. She's the Warren Buffett of 128 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: Congress and really kind of gigger. But I think Trump 129 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: genuinely detests her, So that came across in certainly the 130 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: answer that he gave in that press conference yesterday. They're 131 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: also continuing to battle, by the way, on the government shutdown, 132 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: and we'll see. But my thought is that when people 133 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: get frustrated at airports, then it's Democrats, it's Republicans, it's independents. 134 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: A lot of people will put up with political shenanigans 135 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: until it starts directly impacting their day to day existence. 136 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: And for those of us who travel, and those of 137 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: us who are trying to pick people up at airports, 138 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: and those of us who were just trying to get 139 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: around the country, this thing. Can you imagine, buck if 140 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: this they extended for another few weeks and we moved 141 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: into the Thanksgiving travel season, that would be absolutely bonkers. 142 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: It's the most difficult time of year to be traveling anyway, 143 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: and then you're gonna layer it on top of people 144 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: not getting paid and all of the chaos. And really 145 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: the Democrat objectives here have always been very difficult to 146 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: explain in a succinct fashion. And they're the ones shutting 147 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: down the government. And I feel like they got their 148 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 1: No Kings protests, they got their election wins in New 149 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: Jersey and Virginia. There's zero doubt that Virginia was aided 150 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: because there's so many federal employees by the fact that 151 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: the government shut down happened. Now, let's go ahead and 152 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: just open the government back up. And in fact, he's 153 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: the same guy. This is exactly what John Fetterman said, Buck, 154 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: play cut seven World. 155 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 6: Kitchens feeding government workers. We're in in my neighborhood in 156 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 6: Avy Yard. I mean, it's really impacting these folks. It's 157 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 6: like we've all been paid, but all these workers haven't 158 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 6: been paid. The Capitol police that are protecting here haven't 159 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,239 Speaker 6: been paid. Our military. Why that's not controversial. Pay our military, 160 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 6: pay all these folks, and I'll make sure everyone's fed. Now, 161 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 6: why would we put ourselves in that situation at this point? 162 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 6: You know, we've had the election. Now we can all 163 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 6: reopen and I'll find a way forward. 164 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: Now, this is kind of crazy, Buck, When you really 165 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: break it all down, that maybe the thing that we 166 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: were most wrong on the show in four years, aside 167 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: from the red Wave twenty twenty two, I never would 168 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: have ever believed having watched the twenty twenty two Senate campaigns, 169 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: I never would have believed that John Fetterman would end 170 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: up one of the most irrational, reasonable, efficient, and effective 171 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: senators when it comes to just analyzing basic things like this. 172 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: Would you have ever bought in, like if we went 173 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: back in time to when he was engaged in the debate, 174 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: when he was running against doctor I never would have 175 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: ever believed that this could be a situation where Fetterman 176 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 1: were lauding and saying, Hey, this guy is actually one 177 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: of the best troop tellers on Capitol Hill. But I 178 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: mean everything he just said was eminently reasonable, not particularly partisan, 179 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: and rational. And I can't believe I'm saying this, but 180 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: we need five or six more John Fetterman's in order 181 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: to get the country back up and running and get 182 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: the government open. 183 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 4: What are the Democrats really achieving with all them? Well 184 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 4: that's the question. That's the thing that we're going to 185 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 4: have to look back on when this eventually ends. What 186 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 4: have they gotten I do not think Republicans can give 187 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 4: them what they want, because then you've said a president, 188 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 4: I might add the minority party can say I just 189 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 4: want billions of dollars that have nothing to do with 190 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 4: the actual funding of the government, or else I'm gonna 191 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 4: take my ball and go home, or else I'm I'm 192 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 4: going to stop things from happening in DC. You can't 193 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 4: negotiate with terrorists. Friends, This is congressional terrorism, so to speak. 194 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 4: This is not playing by the pre established rules. So 195 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 4: eventually you're gonna have to just see who has got 196 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 4: the grit, who stays together as a caucus, and I'm 197 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 4: hopeful Republicans stay with it. I do think the one 198 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 4: thing Trump keeps saying, hey, we need the filibuster. You know, 199 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 4: they've moderated the filibuster on an ending the filibuster. They've 200 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,119 Speaker 4: moderated the filibuster on a great number of different aspects. 201 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 4: To me, there is a decent argument to be made, 202 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 4: and I think our friend Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin 203 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 4: has made this argument publicly for some time, and in fact, 204 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 4: if he's listening, he's welcome to call in and make 205 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 4: it better than I'm about to make it. But can 206 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 4: we just do away with the ability to shut down 207 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 4: the government and require there be sixty votes to reopen it. 208 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 4: That doesn't seem like the filibuster for many things makes sense. 209 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 4: Should we have a filibuster when it to whether you 210 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 4: can add Supreme Court justices or add senators from New Jersey, 211 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 4: senators from You can't have a minority of the Senate 212 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 4: say sorry, no government business till I get what I want. 213 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 4: That's crazy. 214 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: That would seem like a solution. And look, Republicans may 215 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 1: be frustrated by that somewhere down the line, but the 216 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: majority party should be able to keep the government open. 217 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: That seems very basic to me, and so you know, 218 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: I would love to hear Senator Johnson explain exactly that perspective. 219 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: But it seems like a reasonable middle ground that doesn't 220 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 1: require eliminating the entirety of the filibuster, and instead would 221 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: just allow government to be open so that we can 222 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: all be able to take airplane flights safely, and so 223 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 1: that the soldiers can get paid, and so we make 224 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: sure that a lot of people out there who are 225 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: doing government jobs like air traffic controllers aren't getting paychecks 226 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 1: showing that they earn and zero dollars, despite the fact 227 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: that they've been working crazy hours. Look, the International Fellowship 228 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: of Christians and Jews does great work both in Israel 229 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 1: and here in the United States. They bring the Christian 230 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: and Jewish community together to help one another. The outpouring 231 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: of support by Christian communities wanting to help Jewish population 232 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,839 Speaker 1: super strong. Whether it's helping Israeli residents impacted by two 233 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: years of missile attacks or caring for neighbors here at 234 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: home in the US. The IFCJ has been there for 235 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: all of that, and at a time like now, particularly 236 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: with the rise in anti Semitism, the work of the 237 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: IFCJ is more important than ever.

When 242 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: Jewish communities are threatened, Christians surround them with support.

Let's dive into 283 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 4: what Trump is saying about the filibuster, about affordability, about 284 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 4: all of that good stuff. Oh and I was gonna say, 285 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 4: he's back in the day.

Uh and you you know, pull up 291 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: somebody's name and have no idea. By the way, loaded lines. 292 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: A lot of good feedback to coming in. A lot 293 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: of people reacting to our boy who called in from 294 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: Ohio and gave Trump and f on the first ten months. 295 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's uh, that's that's gonna get the 296 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 4: that's gonna get the folks riled up. Speaking of Trump, 297 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 4: here is he Look he's saying it. He wants the 298 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 4: filibuster ended right now, at least to open the government 299 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 4: that I agree with. Look, you're going to say this 300 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 4: is a bit of a change, Yeah, but this is 301 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 4: a change that we can live with. If. I don't 302 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 4: think Republicans should be able to in minority demand sixty 303 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 4: votes to open the government. Yeah, that's crazy. I think 304 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 4: Democrats should be able to do this in minority either. 305 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 4: This is sabotage of the system that the system did 306 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 4: not predetermine should exist. Here's Trump play four. 307 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 5: Well, I think it's time for them to end a 308 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 5: filibuster and just put everybody back to work. Vote in 309 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 5: voter ID, vote in, no mail in voting except for military, 310 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 5: far away military and people that are very sick. No, 311 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 5: I'd like to see one day voting. I'd like to see, 312 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 5: not sixty five days of voting from all over the place. Though, 313 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 5: I'd like to clean up the elections the border. We've 314 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 5: done a great job. We have a great strong vorder. 315 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 5: Now I'd like to see new rules on immigration that 316 00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 5: could be fair and good, you know, close to get 317 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 5: the rules that they're never going to get. There's so 318 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 5: many things we could put in, including tax cuts that 319 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 5: we could get, and we could do it all ourselves. Yeah, 320 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 5: but you to do that, you have to end the. 321 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 4: Philibus clay if Democrats really aren't aren't gonna blink your 322 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 4: The election's over and there doesn't seem to be much 323 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 4: movement from them to reopen the government, and people you 324 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 4: are one of them, are dealing with the realities of 325 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 4: what this means. Now you're supposed to fly today, Yes, 326 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know what's gonna happen here, 327 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 4: my friend, you might have to try to, you know, 328 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 4: hit your ride on air force one or something. 329 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: That would be nice, because I bet you could definitely 330 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 1: take off. But I'm I got the email, as I said, 331 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: early early today from my travel situation, and they're just 332 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: like if it was like somebody telling you, hey, we 333 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: may be able to hang out, we might not be 334 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 1: able to hang out. It's really kind of on you. 335 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: You might want to make plans to somebody else. It's 336 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 1: like trying to go on a date with somebody who 337 00:18:58,640 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: doesn't really want to go on a date with you, 338 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: which you know by the way I've been through that. 339 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: I will say this audience is amazing. People are so 340 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: kind out there. We got an email from a Southwest pilot. 341 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: I heard Clay may have trouble getting out of New York. 342 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: I have a standby ticket he can use. This is 343 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: a Southwest pilot, and he reached out. I've got a 344 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: flight on Southwest. So I am going to right now 345 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: be going an hour early on the show so that 346 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: I can get out. Maybe I will call and report 347 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: from the airport to be able to get back home 348 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: and not get left in New York City. It's like 349 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: escape from New York City here time. I'm gonna get 350 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: back to Nashville. But I've been on a ton of 351 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: Southwest Airlines flights in my life because they go in 352 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: and out of Nashville. It's my favorite airline. People pick 353 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: on me about it sometimes, but I'm on Southwest all 354 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 1: the time. So many of their flight attendants and now 355 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: pilots I have met that are fans of this show, 356 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: that are fans of OutKick. 357 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 4: I love that airline. I'm just to be honest with you. 358 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 1: I love the people that work on Southwest Airlines as 359 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: a group, just a fantastic collection of people. And the 360 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: fact that one of our listeners out there is a 361 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,360 Speaker 1: Southwest pilot and he just reached out and said, hey, 362 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: I can help get you on standby on a flight. 363 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you guys are fantastic. Now, we got a 364 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: lot of people who want to weigh in on a 365 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: variety of different topics. It's Friday. Let's hit some of 366 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: these loaded phone lines. Let's see Dan Bend, Oregon. 367 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 4: Dan, you're a. 368 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: Three time Trump voter. We had Jacob call in and 369 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: gave him an F. Do you also give him an F? 370 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 8: No, sir, good morning. I would give him a C 371 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 8: minus though, just because first off, we know Trump's not 372 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 8: a one man show, right. He has an administration of 373 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 8: people he relies upon. So I think from my perspective, 374 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 8: some of the decisions he's making. 375 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: Okay, so let me let me pause. You here for 376 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: sex C minus. Okay, I don't agree with that rating, 377 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: but that is you know, that's not an f right. 378 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody who voted three times for Trump 379 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: would give him an F. Honestly, in the first ten months, 380 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 1: why would you give him a C minus? Buck, I'm 381 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you, I would give him an A. 382 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: He's done almost everything that I thought he would do. 383 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 1: He's been more effective and more efficient. 384 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't want to quibble. I might just 385 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 4: say a minus because you can always do a little better. 386 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 4: But I'm right there with you. 387 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: Okay. 388 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: So I'm curious, what, Dan, what has Trump not done 389 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: that you anticipated he would do in the first ten 390 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: months such that you give him a C minus? 391 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 9: Uh? 392 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 8: And great question, thank you. It's not necessarily what I 393 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 8: anticipated or expected Trump to do. It's what he has 394 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 8: done that has brought my questions to focus on data centers, 395 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 8: to focus on money from the Middle East. The recent 396 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 8: discussion about no longer allowing medical debts to be exempted 397 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 8: on credit reports. And again, some of the decisions I 398 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 8: do believe that Trump has made specifically focus on the 399 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 8: way his administration has guided him. The one Big Beautiful Bill, 400 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 8: a lot of great things passed. I thought it could 401 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 8: have been better, but I know he worked hard and 402 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 8: he got a lot of good things done. But unfortunately, 403 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 8: when I hear him say things like forgiving Google and 404 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,719 Speaker 8: Apple and how the EU should no longer you know, 405 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 8: give them fines and penalties, is ridiculous when these guys 406 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 8: are also up on charges into in America for committee. 407 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 4: This is thank you for the call, and I was 408 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 4: going to ask our I was going to ask our 409 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 4: steam caller. I feel like you might too. Are you 410 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 4: maybe being a little unrealistic about what's possible for the 411 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 4: president to do? 412 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: Also how perfect he's supposed to be. My thought would be, 413 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 1: maybe you're involved in tech. These are very specific, very specific. 414 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 1: It feels like issues that matter to you specifically, but 415 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: aren't necessarily at the top of the list for most voters. 416 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 9: Yes, In other ways, as I as I make under 417 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 9: fifty thousand, sitting here on the ground and being disabled, 418 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 9: I also feel this income pinch, and I feel the 419 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 9: hardships of what the economy is doing. I worked full time, don't. 420 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 9: I don't take any disability payments, But you know, I 421 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 9: do see how it affects other people and other families. 422 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 9: I do see how stores and others have taken advantage of. 423 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 9: It doesn't mean it's all Trump right, it does not, 424 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 9: But it does mean that his administration has caused some 425 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 9: issues down here. So when we focused on tariffs without 426 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 9: focusing on domestic production that would have boosted the economy 427 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,439 Speaker 9: using those terrifts as an advantage versus a weapon, I 428 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 9: just think was poorly timed. It's a good plan, we 429 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 9: needed it, but I think there were things to fix 430 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 9: the Biden economics that screwed us over really bad as 431 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 9: a priority. 432 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 1: Okay, thank you for the call. Basically, it sounds like 433 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: he mostly doesn't agree with the things that Trump has 434 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: done we said, And I think this is important to 435 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: remember that this was an election, and I think Trump 436 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 1: ran it as an election that was focused on the economy, 437 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 1: border crime. You hear nothing about the border. I don't 438 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: know that anybody has ever been more successful in directly 439 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: addressing what they said they would address on something like 440 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: the border than we've ever seen in any of our lives. 441 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: Just not an issue right for a huge majority of you. 442 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 1: The border was maybe your number one issue. Certainly it 443 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: was in the top three. So border is solved. He 444 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: solved it in ten months. He solved it in six months. 445 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 4: Crime. 446 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: We are right now heading towards potentially a fifty or 447 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: sixty year low in murders in the country. In cities 448 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: that Trump has actually aggressively addressed, Washington, d C. My 449 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: home state city of Memphis, the number of murders is plummeting. Buck, 450 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: this is not getting attention in Memphis. I had somebody 451 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: reach out to me. We're going to get on a 452 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: politician from Memphis to talk about it. He said, there's 453 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: a seventy percent decline in violent crime right now in Memphis. Again, 454 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people don't pay attention to Memphis. 455 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 4: I get it. 456 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: It's a you know, one of the top forty or 457 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,919 Speaker 1: fifty biggest cities. There's a lot of other cities that 458 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: are bigger that get more attention. That's an unbelievable success 459 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: story that could be extrapolated elsewhere. Economy, stock market is 460 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: at record highs, gas prices are down for the last 461 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: four years compared to where they were. The problem here 462 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: I see on economy and people say, oh, you don't 463 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: see it. I do see it. Prices went up so 464 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,439 Speaker 1: fast that people are angry. Trump can't make prices go 465 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: back to where they were in twenty nineteen and twenty twenty. 466 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,719 Speaker 1: It's never going to happen for the rest of our lives. 467 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: Biden screwed up so bad that the best thing Trump 468 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: can do is try to rehabilitate the economy that Biden destroyed. 469 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: That's the reality, and so I get that people are frustrated. 470 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: I think the people who are most frustrated with Trump 471 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: are upset because grocery bills are still high, and rent 472 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: is still high, and everything costs more than you think 473 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: it should. 474 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 4: I get it. 475 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 1: The problem is nothing ever goes back in price, so 476 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: you don't get to wave a magic wand and be like, hey, 477 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 1: everything cost what it did in twenty nineteen. That's the 478 00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: pernicious awfulness of inflation and why it is so disastrous 479 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: to any country. 480 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 4: The hope here is that the increases in productivity that 481 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 4: will come from AI and I don't think this is 482 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 4: pie in the sky. I've seen you know, when you 483 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 4: see enough drone factories and things, and when I was 484 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 4: in Taiwan and when I was at TSMC and talking 485 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 4: to them about what is already possible technologically, our lives 486 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 4: are going to be very different in over the next 487 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 4: ten years from what we've been used to in terms 488 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 4: of a lot of things that we're not going to 489 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 4: have to do a lot of things that will be 490 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 4: very easy to do or be done for us. And 491 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 4: that means that there can be attendant quality of life 492 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 4: and productivity increases and general wealth. Right they're like wealth 493 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 4: that all of us, we are all richer than the 494 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 4: kings of Europe from the time of Henry the Eighth, 495 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 4: all of us, all of you listening right now, it 496 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 4: is possible for humanity to actually just be wealthier. I 497 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 4: do think that AI is going to be a big 498 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 4: part of that. But the other issue we have is 499 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 4: that we have a political system where half the country 500 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 4: still thinks that the other half the country is going 501 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 4: to come up with ways to pay all of the 502 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 4: bills that they don't want to pay, and that's not 503 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 4: going to change. And that's also unfortunately not sustainable. If 504 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 4: they're going to just run the printing presses like crazy. 505 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 4: And I know people say, well Trump spent a lot 506 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 4: of money during COVID. He did, but the Democrats absolutely 507 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 4: demanded that, and no one seems willing to do anything 508 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 4: about it now to bring the curve down in the 509 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 4: other direction. So this is where this is where we 510 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 4: are we talk about this. It's very frustrating whenever the 511 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 4: debt becomes an issue and we want to have that conversation, 512 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 4: it goes beyond just oh yeah, that's a political issue. 513 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 4: People say, well I paid into this, and they take 514 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 4: it very personally. You know, I paid for Medicare. Whatever 515 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 4: it may be, all right, so let me just keep 516 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 4: doing what we're doing. This is where this is where 517 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 4: it ends up. And I think lirtually, if you want 518 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 4: to talk about prices, when you have more dollars chasing 519 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 4: fewer goods, this is like econ one oh one week 520 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 4: one more dollars out in the system chasing fewer goods 521 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 4: and services, you have inflation. And that's what happened and 522 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 4: now we're dealing with it. But you know, deflation would 523 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 4: be a painful process as well. So if it comes 524 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 4: too quickly, you know, I don't know, what do you 525 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 4: think I am. I basically as the broad strokes correct. 526 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 2: Here. 527 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,719 Speaker 1: Your broad strokes are completely correct, and I get it. 528 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: I think that the degree of frustration is through the 529 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: roof over cost of goods and economy, border crime, border 530 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: solved crime trending towards record lows thanks to police being supported. 531 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: I don't think it's getting enough attention. And Trump has 532 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: attacked in a way that I don't know that we've 533 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: ever seen before the violent crime in this country, and 534 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: he's winning on that level. You just have to trust them. 535 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: I really do believe the economy is going to be 536 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: firing on all cylinders. I think it's going pretty well 537 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: in the stock market right now. Gas prices are down again. 538 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be firing on all cylinders 539 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: by the spring and summer. Problem is, prices are not 540 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: coming back down. And I think it's to the extent 541 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: that anyone has promised you in any way that prices 542 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: are going to come back down to twenty nineteen or 543 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty levels the pre Biden era prices is just 544 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: not physically it's not going to happen. 545 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 4: I think of Mom Donnie, Mo'm Donnie's big winning line 546 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 4: for a lot of the young people in New York 547 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 4: voted for them. Is I'm going to freeze the rent 548 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 4: that makes the problem of affordability worse. Everybody that makes 549 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 4: it worse. It may not make it worse that day, 550 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 4: but it will make it worse in the long run. Yeah, 551 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,479 Speaker 4: for sure. That's awesome.

He's the author of 577 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 4: The Miracles among Us how God's Grace plays a role 578 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 4: in healing. Doctor Siegel, congrats on the book, Thanks for 579 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 4: calling in. 580 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 2: Great to be with you today. You know I'm a 581 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 2: friends of your wife. 582 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 4: Right Oh yeah, but carries a big fan, So when 583 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 4: you have a book coming out, it's not even a question. 584 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 4: She's like, she just told me doctor Siegel's come on 585 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 4: and talk about his book. I said, yes, ma'am, right away, 586 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 4: tell us about the book. 587 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 2: Same is me. So look, the book starts with the 588 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 2: idea that there's the Catholic Church as miracles that are 589 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 2: very rigid. But I actually look into that, and I 590 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 2: do a chapter on Lords and I in France and 591 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 2: I actually interviewed the doctor there at Di Franciscus, who 592 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 2: actually is a Harvard epidemiologist who trained as a pediatrician, 593 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 2: and he's very religious. That's the key to this book, 594 00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 2: that you can combine faith and science. They're not different, 595 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 2: and they're not separate. It's not like, oh no, I'm 596 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 2: doing surgery now, I can't believe in God. That's just crazy. 597 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 2: In fact, we have to be looking at our patients 598 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 2: as precious, as spiritual, as individuals. That's why I'm against 599 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 2: physicianists assisted suicide. This book is about people who defy 600 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 2: the odds. And in Lords, there's one case of Bernadette, 601 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 2: like the Bernadette that inspired Lords years ago, where she 602 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 2: was completely unable to walk because of her Quota aquina 603 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 2: syndrome and she couldn't control her bowels or bladder in 604 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 2: a horrible foot pain. She was in a wheelchair. She 605 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 2: went and visited there. Three days later she felt heat 606 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 2: through her body and suddenly it was fine and all 607 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 2: through prayer and Defranciscus looked at this, but here's the point. 608 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 2: He got thirty three other doctors involved. He got an 609 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 2: expert and involved, He got radiologists involved, He even got 610 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 2: psychiatrists involved. All said, this is really a spontaneous intervention 611 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 2: of God. Now that's not the only thing the book 612 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 2: is about, because those are hard miracles, those are church miracles. 613 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 2: There's also miracles that I am more interested in, which 614 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 2: is an accumulation of coincidences. I call it a miracle lane. 615 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 2: You're in the miracle lane and you can't even pick 616 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 2: out which is the specific miracle. The publisher of the 617 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: book from HarperCollins and ilesa sharky. We actually have a 618 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 2: back and forth what's the main miracle of that chapter? 619 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 2: And Clay will be interested to know that De mar 620 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 2: Hamlin story has a lot more miracles to it than 621 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 2: you might think. 622 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: Tell me about that, because for a lot of people 623 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,959 Speaker 1: out there, that is one of the most chilling things 624 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: to see happen on a football field. For those of 625 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: you who have forgotten, football player makes a hit playing 626 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: for the Buffalo Bills and nearly dies on the field. 627 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: They have to bring out the shock machine to try 628 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: to bring him back to life. They put him in 629 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: an ambulance, rush him out of there. Game basically ends 630 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: right then, what is the backstory now on DeMar Hamlin 631 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: and how exactly that went down. 632 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 2: The backstory is the first miracle. It's that Leslie Bisson, 633 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 2: who is the team physician for the Buffalo Bills and 634 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Sabers and the head of orthopedics at Buffalo 635 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 2: at the medical school. In two thousand and seven, he 636 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 2: had a skater almost die. It was a former Buffalo 637 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 2: Sabers skater and he bled from a carotid artery. He 638 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 2: barely saved them with all of these transfusions, and he said, 639 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 2: you know what, from here on, all of my teams 640 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 2: are going to rehearse for tragic events on the field, 641 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 2: and they're going to be rehearsed and we're going to 642 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 2: be ready. And when he went to the Buffalo Bills, 643 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 2: they said, Leslie, you're crazy. We haven't had a carneiac 644 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,720 Speaker 2: arrest on the field since nineteen fifty five. He says, 645 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 2: I'm rehearsing, and he had a premonition that one day 646 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 2: this would be needed. But everyone thought he was crazy. 647 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 2: But he had a drill and he had a defibrillator 648 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 2: right there, and he trained the the trainer of the 649 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 2: of the Bills and all of them were ready for 650 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 2: an event where somebody dropped on the field like Damar did. 651 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 2: That's why they rushed over there. And we have an 652 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 2: expression in medicine, time his brain, and they did. They 653 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 2: started CPR so fast, and that defibrillator so fast, and 654 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,760 Speaker 2: they got their shoulder pads off so fast, only because 655 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 2: they had rehearsed it. Now, the next part of the 656 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:26,400 Speaker 2: miracle is that when Damarro was recovering. People don't know this, 657 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 2: but Damar and I interviewed everybody for this, and the 658 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 2: doctors and the trainers and every DeMar was recovering, it 659 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: took him a while to feel back in the game, 660 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 2: let's say, so to speak. And you know, it wasn't 661 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 2: just I woke he woke up. What was the final score? 662 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 2: It was more like it took a few days for 663 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 2: him to come back to himself. And then it was 664 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 2: a combination of prayer, very religious tomorrow and yoga and meditation. 665 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 2: All of these things helped him. And then he felt 666 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 2: and this is another key to the book, that having 667 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 2: received a miracle, he needed to give out miracles, and 668 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 2: so he went around the community and he has been 669 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 2: the biggest proponent of defibrillators AEDs automatic defibrillators in any 670 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 2: facility imaginable. He's out there teaching CPR with that, with 671 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 2: the sports doock with Leslie Bisson, and he goes all 672 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 2: over the country. He's a great human being. God's giving 673 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 2: back to. 674 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 4: Him speing a doctor Mark Siegel of Fox News. He's 675 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,240 Speaker 4: got a book out, the Miracles among Us how God's 676 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 4: grace plays a role in healing. Doctor Siegel. Interesting that 677 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 4: there's research, real research that has been done and is 678 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,720 Speaker 4: still being done on prayer and helping people to heal. 679 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 4: I'm wondering if you could speak to that well. 680 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 2: First of all, believe it or not. The part of 681 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 2: the brain, the right frontal part of the brain. I 682 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 2: spoke to the researcher on this exact issue. That part 683 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 2: of the brain where you connect the dots and you 684 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 2: kind of have to use your imagination and creativity. That 685 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 2: creates such a positive feeling believing in miracles that it 686 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 2: takes the place of negative feelings like political divisiveness and 687 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 2: the same part of the brain and it wants you 688 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 2: to join a community and it gives you a sense 689 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 2: of hope and reassurance to think that there's a greater 690 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 2: force than you out there that makes these decisions. God 691 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 2: gives us the miracles he wants us to have, not 692 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 2: necessarily the ones we're asking for, and knowing that that 693 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 2: we should fear God but not each other is greatly uplifting. 694 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 2: It definitely decreats his depression and it improves health outcomes, 695 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 2: which has been shown again and again. And I also 696 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 2: talk about that in the book where Bait way back 697 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 2: in the Old Testament, Hannah's praying for a son, and 698 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 2: God only answers that prayer because he looks down the 699 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 2: road and he knows that son will be Samuel, who 700 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 2: becomes a great prophet, so that we have to put 701 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 2: our lives and our futures in God hands. Another great 702 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 2: story from the book related to that is Robert Redfield's 703 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 2: son who hits his head. Robert Redfield, former CDC director, 704 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 2: hits his head, goes into a deep coma herniates, is 705 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 2: not expected to recover at all, but he ends up 706 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 2: being brought to the top trauma center in the country, 707 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 2: in the world in Maryland. And Tom Scalia is not 708 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 2: a big believer. He runs the place, but he says, 709 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 2: you know, we do miracles here every day. I said, 710 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 2: what are the chances of Danny Redfield having a full recovery, 711 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 2: he says, probably zero. Danny Redfield fully recovers and ends 712 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 2: up back on the golf course, beating his old scores. 713 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 2: Because Robert Redfield and his wife are praying to God 714 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 2: every single day. You know, he knew John Paul the 715 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 2: second he's involved in a Catholic church. He has a 716 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 2: group of Franciscan sisters praying for him in upstate New York. 717 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 2: One day, and this is a great story. One day, 718 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,240 Speaker 2: he says to Danny, who is starting to recover, something's 719 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 2: wrong with your eye. Danny, what's wrong with your eye? 720 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 2: Are you seeing double? Danny says no, I can't see 721 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 2: out of my right eye at all. So Redfield goes 722 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 2: back to God and he says, you promised me a 723 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 2: full recovery. And I said to Redfield, you criticized the Lord, 724 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 2: and he said, why not? It worked? Two weeks later, 725 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 2: Danny singing, well out of both eyes. 726 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: That's an amazing, amazing tell us how to get the book, 727 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: because going around I'm going around trying to sell a 728 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 1: book right now, I know how hard this is for 729 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: people out there who like these stories and would like 730 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: to maybe get some inspiration in their life? 731 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 4: How can they find it? 732 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 2: And that's the key. By the way, every one of 733 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 2: us has a miracle. We can tell my father's one 734 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 2: hundred and two years old, my mother's one hundred. They've 735 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,919 Speaker 2: kept together through all of the medical turns in the road. 736 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 2: You need this. 737 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 1: How many years have they been hold on? How many 738 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 1: years have they been married? 739 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 2: They've been married seventy three years. They and they're married 740 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 2: through love of each other. And the fact that doctors 741 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 2: believe that you can operate and fix a hip on 742 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 2: a ninety eight year old or put a ninety nine 743 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 2: year old on a ventilator. Doctors that believe in what 744 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 2: they're doing and believe in God are more likely not 745 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 2: to give up on you. And that's really important. And 746 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 2: every story will inspire you in this book that you 747 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 2: might have the same thing happen to you.

Thank you. 755 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 4: In a world where caring for others you've never met 756 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 4: before defines you as doing the right thing, the Preborn 757 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 4: Network of Clinics has a big team of people doing 758 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,879 Speaker 4: just that. This is the nonprofit organization helping pregnant women 759 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 4: in crisis who are making that decision about life or 760 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 4: abortion for their unborn child. This past year, they saved 761 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 4: the lives of sixty seven thousand unborn children. When a 762 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 4: woman walks into one of Preborn's Network clinics, she's welcomed 763 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 4: with open arms. She's introduced to her baby through an ultrasound, 764 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,720 Speaker 4: and for the first time she sees life not lost, 765 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 4: and she's offered hope filled choices. When she chooses life, 766 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 4: Preborn continues walking with her for up to two years, 767 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 4: providing maternity clothes, diapers, counseling, and so much more. Preborn 768 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 4: cares for the whole woman and the precious baby growing 769 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 4: inside her. So as you're thinking about end of year 770 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,879 Speaker 4: giving in particular, consider the greatest investment you could ever 771 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 4: make life.

Jd Vance, This is twenty five. 797 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 4: Jd Vance is saying, now the pain start. It's one 798 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 4: thing to have a shutdown for a few days a week, 799 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 4: ten days. Now there's real consequences to this stuff. Play 800 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 4: twenty five. 801 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 10: The American people are unfortunately about to start suffering some 802 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 10: very real consequences because of the shutdown. In the past, 803 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 10: when you had a government shutdown, you would have go 804 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 10: under the Obama administration, they would lean into all of 805 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 10: the problems it was going to cousse for the American people. 806 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,359 Speaker 10: At the beginning of the shutdown, the President has told 807 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 10: us to keep as much going as humanly possible. But 808 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 10: after thirty days of this thing, forty days of this thing, 809 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 10: you're going to start seeing very real travel delays. That's 810 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 10: because the Democrat government shut down. You're going to start 811 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 10: seeing snap benefits run out. That's because the Democrat government shutdown. 812 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 4: They should stop the charade and. 813 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 10: Open up the government. That's what we want them to do. 814 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 10: We've been asking them to do it for forty days. 815 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:31,760 Speaker 10: It's time. 816 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 4: Why not just open the government up and then say, hey, guys, 817 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 4: we also have to fix the Obamacare exchanges by funneling 818 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 4: billions of dollars of subsidies to them afterwards. Do they 819 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 4: really think that Republicans are going to allow people to 820 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 4: have forty thousand dollars a year in expense for some 821 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 4: of these Obamacare approved plans, which is what some of 822 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,399 Speaker 4: these plans are going to cost for a family of four, 823 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 4: Just completely unaffordable stuff and stuff that will will destroy 824 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:02,919 Speaker 4: people's finances. What you'll have is a lot of people 825 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 4: will refuse to get insurance. And remember, we don't have 826 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 4: those Obamacare finds anymore, right, they got rid of that, 827 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:11,440 Speaker 4: So you'll just have a lot of people who go 828 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,800 Speaker 4: on insured. Isn't that the great irony of this Obamacare 829 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 4: will have made health insurance so expensive that without billions 830 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 4: of dollars of subsidies showered on it to just artificially 831 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 4: make people think the price has been decreased, Obamacare, the 832 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 4: quote Affordable Care Act, will have made healthcare so unaffordable 833 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 4: that people will choose not to have it. That's going 834 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 4: to become the legacy of the ACA. I think at 835 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 4: some level Democrats recognize this is going to be a 836 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 4: problem for them. This is going to be a problem 837 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 4: for their party. Because this is still the single most transformational, 838 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 4: unfortunately in a very bad way, p of legislation that 839 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 4: the Democrat Party has managed to get through. I'm probably 840 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 4: in twenty something years. I don't know, you have to 841 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 4: go back quite a while. The other big things that 842 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 4: Democrats have gotten that are wins are all just judicial fiat. 843 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 2: Right. 844 00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 4: It's the Supreme Court before the Trump appointees came on board, 845 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 4: handing them and in some cases even with the Trump 846 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 4: appointees handing Democrats the policy victories they could have never 847 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 4: gotten at the ballot box. And so there we have it. Oh, 848 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 4: speaking of judges, you also have this judge now who 849 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,320 Speaker 4: has ruled this is what the administration must do on 850 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 4: on snap food stamps. Notice that why would they change? 851 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 4: This isn't this is meaningful? Why is it this supplemental 852 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 4: nutritional assistance program? Why not just call it food stamps? 853 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,799 Speaker 4: What's wrong with that? We even call it something like 854 00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 4: food aid? You know, why do we have to call 855 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 4: it supple We come up with this science sounding the 856 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 4: supplemental nutritional assistance. It's buying free food for people. It 857 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 4: is food welfare. Now, there are reasons when people can 858 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 4: be down on their luck things happen, I get it. 859 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,359 Speaker 4: I do not think that we should have no safety net. Well, 860 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 4: if anything, we should have a safety net where we 861 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 4: take care of each other or decency and charity as 862 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 4: Americans means that nobody would ever go hungry because we 863 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 4: don't allow them to. But I'm not opposed to a 864 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 4: safety net. And I understand that things can be difficult 865 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 4: than people have challenges, but I also think we should 866 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 4: call things what they are. I also think that when 867 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,760 Speaker 4: you're giving food welfare, we should know as a people, 868 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,800 Speaker 4: that's what it is. You hear, that's your welfare. A 869 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 4: lot less it's these all these bureaucracies also that administer 870 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 4: this stuff don't want people to think of what they're 871 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 4: doing as welfare because then they realize that this is 872 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 4: their money that's just being handed to people. And also 873 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:03,320 Speaker 4: the bureaucracies are very wasteful and very bloated, so they remember, 874 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,479 Speaker 4: the bureaucracies take a cut because this government money going 875 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,839 Speaker 4: through government hands to get to the people who are 876 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,239 Speaker 4: getting it for free. So yeah, we should call it 877 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 4: food stamps. The same way, they don't want you to 878 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,800 Speaker 4: think of illegal aliens. Somebody who is not American, not 879 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 4: supposed to be in the country undocumented. What is undocumented 880 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:26,280 Speaker 4: even mean? Is it really a meaningless term? The problem 881 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 4: is that they lack a document. No, the problem is 882 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:30,400 Speaker 4: that they're illegally in the United States and they're in 883 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 4: violation of our laws. So these things do matter. The 884 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 4: way we talk about this does make a difference. But 885 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 4: on the snap ruling, because this is now that's the 886 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 4: official government term for it, maybe Trump should change that 887 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 4: it call it food welfare. What's wrong with that? All 888 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,839 Speaker 4: the different welfare forms we have, I might add, you know, 889 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 4: people were for of Section eight housing, for example, what 890 00:47:56,680 --> 00:48:00,800 Speaker 4: does that mean? That could be anything? Actually eight housing 891 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:06,760 Speaker 4: we don't call the medicaid. We don't call anything really. 892 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 4: I mean, there's probably some exceptions, but we don't call 893 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,320 Speaker 4: things welfare anymore because it's always supposed to be hidden 894 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,920 Speaker 4: from the American people in the taxpayer. The size and 895 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 4: scope of the free stuff that we are giving to 896 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 4: people in a country where half the country pays no 897 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 4: income tax whatsoever. That's that's not a good and sustainable program, 898 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:36,120 Speaker 4: is it. Here's vance on the judge's ruling about how 899 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 4: this is just a judge saying this is what the 900 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 4: federal government must do now the government shut down on 901 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 4: food stamps Play twenty six. 902 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,920 Speaker 10: It's an absurd ruling because you have a federal judge 903 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 10: effectively telling us what we have to do in the 904 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 10: midst of a Democrat government shutdown, which what we'd like 905 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 10: to do is for the Democrats to open up the government, 906 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 10: of course, and then we can fund snap and we 907 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 10: can also do a lot of other good things for 908 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:59,280 Speaker 10: the American people. But in the midst of a shutdown, 909 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 10: we can't have a fed court telling the president how 910 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 10: he has the triage of the situation. We're trying to 911 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 10: keep as much turned on. We're trying to keep as 912 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 10: much going as possible. The President and the entire administration 913 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 10: are working on that. But we're not gonna do it 914 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 10: under the orders of a federal judge. We're going to 915 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 10: do it according to what we think we have to 916 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 10: do to comply with the law, of course, but also 917 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 10: to actually make the government work for people in the 918 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:25,439 Speaker 10: midst of the Democrat government shut down. 919 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 4: I mean, what if the judge just said the Democrats, 920 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 4: I've got a better idea. Hey, judge, whatever you know, 921 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 4: Obama or Biden or maybe maybe probably not Clinton. That's 922 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 4: going back too far. But Obama Biden, judge, this is uh. 923 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 4: Or are the Democrats to reopen the government? How why 924 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 4: don't we try that one? If we're just gonna become 925 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 4: king for a day as a federal judge, let's just 926 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 4: have the government reopened by the fiat of a judge. 927 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,799 Speaker 4: Just trample off, trample on the executive I mean, the 928 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 4: legislative branches, prerogative. Just forget about all that. You're the judge, 929 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 4: you're the emperor in the black robes, and just do 930 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:10,680 Speaker 4: your thing. There's way too much of this, way too 931 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 4: much of this stuff going on to try to stop 932 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 4: this administration, to order around this administration, to dictate to 933 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 4: the Trump team from these judges. And notice that Trump 934 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:22,760 Speaker 4: just the way he handles it is to go to court, 935 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 4: go through the process, go through the process. That's not 936 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 4: how kings do things. For the no Kings protest, honestly, 937 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 4: I don't know how people, I don't know how you 938 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 4: can take yourself seriously if you go to a no 939 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:40,880 Speaker 4: King's protest, Oh no kings. It is so pathetic. But 940 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:48,200 Speaker 4: people would rather continue to be sanctimonious and wrong than 941 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:54,800 Speaker 4: be self effacing and right. So common Unfortunately it's so common. 942 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 4: I hate being wrong. Clay and I share this. We 943 00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,399 Speaker 4: both if we get any fact wrong, anything we say. 944 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,440 Speaker 4: When I say wrong, inaccurate right, predictions, you know, you 945 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 4: win some, you lose some. We like to have fun 946 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 4: with predictions. But no one can predict the future. So 947 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,680 Speaker 4: that's that is what it is. That's more of a 948 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 4: parlor game than anything else. But accuracy really counts. Accuracy 949 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:18,840 Speaker 4: really matters. It bothers me to be inaccurate, but also analysis. 950 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 4: If I'm really wrong on a point of analysis, I 951 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 4: try to go back, admit that first off, and then 952 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 4: try to understand why. The great part of being a 953 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 4: Democrat is never admitting you're wrong, never admitting that your 954 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 4: policies are dumb, that your ideas are idiotic, that it's destructive, 955 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 4: that you make everything worse for everyone, including yourself, with 956 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:40,880 Speaker 4: most of the things that you want to have happen. 957 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 4: You know, the walk back from climate change is the 958 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:48,319 Speaker 4: biggest existential threat in the world, which is happening a 959 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,879 Speaker 4: little bit quietly. But with Bill Gates and then others too, 960 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 4: Why are they making more movies about how I'm in Florida, 961 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:59,239 Speaker 4: Go try to get a deal on Florida, Florida beachfront 962 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,280 Speaker 4: real estate right now, Okay, especially given what just happened 963 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 4: in New York, go try to get a deal. Say somebody, 964 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:06,200 Speaker 4: you know what, I'm gonna help you out. You're right 965 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,840 Speaker 4: here on the beach, very close to those rising oceans. 966 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:12,879 Speaker 4: I'm gonna give you twenty percent of what you think 967 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 4: this place is worth. I'll take it off your hands. 968 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 4: See what happens. Let me know how that goes for you. 969 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:19,839 Speaker 4: Of course, it was all nonsense. It was all lies. 970 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 4: They were all wrong. All that climate change stuff is absurd, 971 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 4: and yet they never have to stop and think, you 972 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,400 Speaker 4: know what, m maybe there's a problem there, say anything 973 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,399 Speaker 4: with the government shutdown, I might add, as soon as 974 00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:33,640 Speaker 4: we end this government shutdown, or rather it ends, Democrats 975 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 4: are going to pretend like this wasn't a thing that 976 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 4: they did, and the suffering that people had because of 977 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,839 Speaker 4: it was not their fault. They're just going to lie 978 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 4: about all of it and lies. Unfortunately, as they're very destructive, 979 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,399 Speaker 4: they're also very powerful. Lies are a very effective tool 980 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 4: of power because if you can always lie to people 981 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,919 Speaker 4: about what you do, you can never be held responsible 982 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 4: for what you do, and therefore you can convince the 983 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 4: masses of whatever you need to stay in power just 984 00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 4: by lying to them. That's why when Gavin Newsom said 985 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 4: he hates politicians who lie, everyone across the country with 986 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 4: an IQ above fifty was like laughing out loud.
