1 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: We need to focus and we're not focused. We're gonna 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: talk about that. To open up the show tonight, We're 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:11,160 Speaker 1: gonna talk about the declassification of the crossfire hurricane documents. 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: Maybe a heavy talk about the budget coming all that 5 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: and more coming up when I'm right. 6 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 2: Let's talk. Let's have a Daddy Jesse talk. 7 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: Pull up a chair, let's talk, because something bad just 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: happened yesterday and we need to address it before I 9 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: get to the bad. I know this isn't about the 10 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: signal chat stuff and things like that. We're moving off 11 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 1: of that before I get to the bad. Have you 12 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 1: ever known anybody who struggles with addiction of some kind? 13 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: Maybe it's drugs or alcohol or something like that. So 14 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: let's make it about alcoholics. That's a common struggle. Maybe 15 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: it's something you struggle with. By the way, keep struggling, 16 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: you will overcome anyway. Maybe that's a struggle you are 17 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: aware of. Let's say somebody's been drinking a fifth of 18 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: whiskey every day for twenty years. All right, it's bad, 19 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: and they decide they want to clean it up, all right, and. 20 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 2: They go. 21 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: One day without a fifth of whiskey. Maybe it's even 22 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: a Friday. Friday night, that'd be the night where they 23 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: really go crazy and they decide, I want to clean. 24 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 2: Up my life. 25 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: I'm not having any today, and they skip that day. 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 2: Then they go back and have another one on Saturday. 27 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: Okay, so let's discuss this because this is going to 28 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: be about us in elections. Did that one day? Did 29 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: it mean nothing? 30 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: Of course not. 31 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: That's a great thing. And if that's you, if you've 32 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: done something like this, be. 33 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: Proud of yourself. 34 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: It's not easy to break the cycle and take a 35 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: day off. That's a good thing. But did that one 36 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: day solve your alcohol problem? No, of course not. You 37 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: won one battle in a million battles, and you have 38 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: got to stay focused and win a lot more. 39 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: We the United States of. 40 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: America, we went out in November and we rejected American communism, 41 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 1: the American people, not just you and me, not just 42 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 1: the politically involved, the American people. We watched in horror 43 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: as the Biden administration tore this country apart every way 44 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: they could in the American people. And I'm proud of 45 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: us for that. We went out in one election and 46 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: said no more enough, and the results were overwhelming. County 47 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: after county, every County went to the right. Everybody, everyone said, 48 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: I've had enough with this garbage. 49 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 2: Enough. And I was very. 50 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: Proud of us, and I remain very proud of us 51 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: for that day. For a day, we did good and 52 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: we should be proud of it. However, as I had said, 53 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: I've said a million times this. I said it before 54 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: the election, I've said it since the election. I will 55 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: say it till the day they kicked me off the air. 56 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: Saving a country or losing a country, it is not 57 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: an event. There's not a super Bowl, there's not a 58 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: one time thing. It's a process. It's not an event. 59 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 1: It's a process. A presidential election. Yes, it's critically important, 60 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: just like that Friday when you skip the whiskey. 61 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: It did not fix everything by a mile. 62 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: And I say this because well, Trump signed an executive 63 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: order yesterday and everyone's making a big deal of it. 64 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 2: Here it was. 65 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 3: We believe that this executive order is the farthest reaching 66 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 3: executive action taken in the history of the Republic to 67 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 3: secure our elections. Among numerous other aspects of this executive order, 68 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 3: this is going to down on illegal immigrants on the 69 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 3: voter rolls ensure that the Department of Homeland Security and 70 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 3: the data that they have available is being fully weaponized 71 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 3: to ensure that illegal immigrants aren't voting. This will include 72 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: a citizenship question on the federal voting form for the 73 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 3: first time. This executive order instructs the EAC to cut 74 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 3: federal funding to states that don't take reasonable steps to 75 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 3: secure their election. This calls on the Department of Justice 76 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 3: to vigorously prosecute election crimes, particularly in states that we 77 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 3: don't believe are in compliance with federal law around election integrity. 78 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 3: I could go on and on for a while, sir, 79 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 3: but compliance with national Election Day rules, cracking down and 80 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: investigating and prosecuting foreign interference in our elections, Revoking President 81 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 3: Biden's Executive Order fourteen one point nine, which essentially weaponized 82 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: government to corrupt and pollute our election process. There's a 83 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 3: lot in here, but we believe that these are very 84 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 3: important steps that we need to be taking as an administration. 85 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: Your direction to ensure that our elections are as secure 86 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 3: as they possibly can be. 87 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: Okay, sounds good. 88 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: I see a lot of yeah, don't trump whoo. 89 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: Okay, we're going to secure our elections. Why don't we 90 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: show up and vote for them? Then? We just we 91 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: had a huge election. 92 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: Wasn't sexy, but a huge election in Pennsylvania for the 93 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: state house. It wasn't for national but Pennsylvania the critical 94 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: swing state. The laws, the things they pass in Pennsylvania 95 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: will undoubtedly affect whether or not we can win presidential 96 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: elections and things like that. A critical special election, special 97 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: election in a district Trump won by sixteen points in November, 98 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: and the results of this special election were to decide 99 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: did decide who would control the Pennsylvania legislature. 100 00:05:58,520 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 2: You realize that those were the. 101 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: Of the game, and this was a gimme for us 102 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: plus sixteen Trump district. 103 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 2: Surely we got that in the bag. Right. 104 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: We lost, didn't even show up. I think we lost 105 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: by less than five hundred votes last time I looked. 106 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: I know there's still some moving, some numbers around, but 107 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: less than five hundred. 108 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: Votes we lost. Oh, I know, I know. We elected 109 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. 110 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: And it is human nature when you get a win 111 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 1: like that, especially when it's for the office of the presidency, 112 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: it's human nature to sit back and go, oh, finally, 113 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm glad we saved this place. Anyway, March madness is on. 114 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: I get it, I get it. But if that is 115 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,119 Speaker 1: going to be our attitude, we're going to lose this country. 116 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: It's true. 117 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: You can't save the country by only showing up to 118 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: vote when Donald Trump was on the ballot. We cannot 119 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: continue to dust off our maga hats once every four 120 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: years and show up when Trump's running for president and 121 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: save the United States of America. The American communist doesn't 122 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: do that. The American Communist. 123 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 2: I'll tell you this. 124 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: I'll tell you a little story here before I let 125 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: you go, so we have a huge show for you tonight. 126 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: I have told you the story maybe before. But I 127 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: have a bunch of former communists who watched us here 128 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: on I'm right, listen to the radio show. 129 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: And I had one, a woman. She emailed in the show, 130 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 2: you want. 131 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: To hear the level of commitment we're up against. She 132 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: former communists. She used to print out all the different 133 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: local elections, not the sexy stuff, not even congress or 134 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: sending every special election, every local election, every time there 135 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: was something on the ballot, a proposal of some kind. 136 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: She would create printouts of everything, and she would send 137 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: them out to everybody in her group. Everybody she knew, Hey, 138 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: here are your marching orders, make sure you show up here, 139 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: make sure you show up there, organizing, getting people showing up. 140 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: And one time she missed one. Now, this wasn't a 141 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: presidential election. We're not talking to Hillary Barock on the ballot. 142 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: It wasn't sentate, wasn't it wasn't anything you or I 143 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: would care about at all. A local prop election that 144 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: didn't matter. This communist was so distraught. Former communists want 145 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: to give her credit. This communist was so distraught about 146 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: missing one meaningless local election that she had to go 147 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: see a shrink to get over the horrible guilt she 148 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: felt about missing one local election. I know that going 149 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: to battle political battle power, battles for your country. I 150 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: know it's exhausting. Look I love this, as you can tell. 151 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: I do this for a living. 152 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: I'm just like you. I have days where I get. 153 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: Home and I'm just tired of it. I don't care anymore. 154 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm want to take a night off. I'm going to 155 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,599 Speaker 1: take a week off. I'm tired of the fighting and 156 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: the yelling at that. I just can I just watch 157 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: some I know I go through the exact same thing 158 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: you go through.

But all those things have the same thing 232 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: in common. When you wake up, you feel horrible. You 233 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: don't feel rested, you don't feel good. Oh yeah, you 234 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: slept nineteen hours. You still feel miserable.

Shopbeam dot com slash Jesse Kelly, we'll be bad. Okay, Look, 239 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: that's enough of Daddy Jesse talking about a special election 240 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. Now we're moving on to Daddy Ryan joining me. Now, 241 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: my buddy, Ryan Gradusky, who's never afraid to give you 242 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: the truth right between the eyes, is the host of 243 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: a numbers game, which I would highly recommend. 244 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 2: You'll sound so smart to steal all of his ideas 245 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 2: like I do. Ryan. 246 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: The special election in Pennsylvania. It's my understanding, buddy, that 247 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: we've taken this county since the eighteen hundreds, Do I. 248 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: Have that right? 249 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 4: Yes, it's the first time since eighteen I think fifty 250 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 4: that the state Senate seat has flipped and Republicans have 251 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 4: won in every per president in every election except for 252 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 4: nineteen sixty four, where LBJ won it by zero point 253 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,439 Speaker 4: four percent in his forty seven state forty six state landslide. 254 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 4: But yeah, it is a reliably Republican district in a 255 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 4: reliable Republican county, and Republicans really screwed up. 256 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: Okay, Ryan, let's break down the how and the why, 257 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: because this is one of those things. I mean, I 258 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: look at it and I just my shoulders slump. I'm 259 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 1: blown away at how complacent we are when Trump's name 260 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: isn't on the ballot. 261 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 2: What happened here? 262 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: Did we have a bad candidate that they have a 263 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: great candidate? 264 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 2: Was it a money thing? What happened? 265 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 4: So it was kind of all the above. We had 266 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 4: a really they had a really good candidate, a former 267 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 4: prosecutor and small town mayor. We had the county wide 268 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 4: county commissioner who's deeply unpopular. Lancaster has a lot of 269 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 4: debt right now because of a lot of spending. Although 270 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 4: he has he hasn't rate increased taxes, but he's super unpopular. 271 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 4: This is a seat that Democrat. He holds a seat 272 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 4: that Democrats usually don't even throw a candidate against. He's 273 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 4: on a people run unopposed, going back to twenty eleven 274 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 4: when Republicans won it by two to one. He barely 275 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 4: won it the last time, which was I think in 276 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 4: twenty twenty three, so naturally they said, hey, let's run 277 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 4: him a a in a not so competitive district, but 278 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 4: let's run him again, and he was super complacent. Republicans 279 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 4: had no early ballad chase operation to speak of. Democrats 280 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 4: had an immense one. Democrats opened the election with several 281 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 4: thousand I think like six or seven thousand more votes 282 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 4: in the early vote than Republicans did, and they won 283 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 4: by four hundred votes. That mettered a lot. And so 284 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 4: it was complacency on the part of the party. It's 285 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 4: a new party leader, so I'd give him some leeway 286 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 4: because he's only been there for a few months. This 287 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 4: was his first competition. Complacency a bad candidate. Democrats had 288 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 4: a super strong candidate. And listen, Democrats are the electorate 289 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 4: of high propensity, college educated whites and a lot of 290 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 4: seniors now and Republicans. We've created this multi racial, multi ethnic, 291 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 4: working class party the ones we wanted who can win 292 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 4: the popular vote in presidential election. They just don't seem 293 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 4: to vote when it's not a presidential election. And that's 294 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 4: a big problem. 295 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm glad you brought that up, because my next 296 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: question was going to be, I mean, it wasn't always 297 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: this way, where the filthy communists would it would turn 298 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: out no matter what. 299 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 2: We used to turn. 300 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: Out, no matter what in these special elections, and that 301 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: has changed. Is this just simply a demographic problem. Old 302 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: people vote every time, young people don't. 303 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 4: That's exactly right, Jesse. I mean, Republicans were the party 304 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 4: that won special elections. I did a special election one 305 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 4: time for a guy named Bob Turner who replaced Anthony 306 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 4: Wiener in a deep plus seven seat in New York City, 307 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 4: and Republicans won it. And they want to buy a 308 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 4: big margin, and we could count on special elections to 309 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 4: really pick up huge numbers. I don't think Scott Brown 310 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 4: would win today if he was running in the same 311 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 4: style of Massachusetts with Obamacare coming down the pipeline. If 312 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 4: we have the same demographics, we just don't have that 313 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 4: elector anymore. And that's a problem. You either have to 314 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 4: really engage people with deep social distrust of institutions who 315 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 4: only or lower information or lower commitment, who don't make 316 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 4: politics their lives, or you have to somehow re engage 317 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 4: and have candidates who can win. Now, listen, I will 318 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 4: sit there and say, in special elections so far this year, 319 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 4: Republicans have done not so terrible. They won a very 320 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 4: close one in Connecticut, they won another one in California. 321 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 4: It's possible to still win them, but you have to 322 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 4: work for it. And Republicans looked at the seat and said, oh, 323 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 4: we don't have to work for it. It's an R 324 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 4: plus Sixteen's a Trump plus sixteen seat, No problem, We're 325 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 4: going to win it with our eyes shut. That's just 326 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 4: not the way politics works in these special elections anymore, 327 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 4: in these off year elections. I think that's a seat 328 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 4: we can win back in twenty twenty six minutes up again. 329 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 4: But Republicans are now just two seats shy in the 330 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 4: state Senate of giving Democrats complete control of the Commonwealth 331 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 4: of Pennsylvania, which is what the seventh biggest date in 332 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 4: the country. Not a small place, not a place you 333 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 4: just want to lose and give Democrats full control of. 334 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 4: It's one of the last bastions of the entire Northeast 335 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 4: that Democrats don't have full control of. 336 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: That's also a place to get delicious Amish pastries and 337 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: Amish butter. I would highly recommend if you're ever there, 338 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: you do the sixth. Okay, Ryan, how did we lose 339 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: old people? I'm fascinated by this demographic shift. I understand 340 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 1: why working class people are drifting towards Republicans as Democrats 341 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: become more and more snooty elitists who. 342 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 2: Talk down to everybody. 343 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: I get that, But old people, how do we lose them? 344 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 4: Old people changed because the old people that I grew 345 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 4: up with, Like, let's say you're a child of the 346 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 4: nineties like me, and you watch the little giants growing up, 347 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 4: and the old people there were World War Two veterans. 348 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 4: They're all dead now, and the old people now are 349 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 4: Jane Fonda. The old people now are people who I 350 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 4: naturally would think of are in their sixties, but they're 351 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 4: actually in their eighties now. And that's who is. That's 352 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 4: just who old people are now. Old people have changed 353 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 4: the last fifteen twenty years. And they were the progressive 354 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 4: of the Bill Clinton generation. They were the ones who 355 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 4: you know, many of them opposed the Vietnam War, a 356 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 4: lot of them were the most progressive generation of their time. 357 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 4: That's who old people are. Because time has changed and 358 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 4: time has gone on, and so the ones who we 359 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 4: thought of is old people are for the most part 360 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 4: gone now and the ones who are left are you know, 361 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 4: the counter cultural people. I mean, that's just that's kind 362 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 4: of how it happened. Part of it is is that 363 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 4: all people changed. 364 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: Ryan. 365 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: You also run the seventeen seventy six Project Pack, of 366 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: which I am a big fan in supporter. It involves 367 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: what with school board races, you're involved in school board 368 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: races across the country. 369 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 2: What are you seeing out there right now? 370 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 4: Well, we just won our first election in Maine, so 371 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 4: I was exciting. But Wisconsin's April first. We have a 372 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 4: ton We have I think twenty eight candidates across the state. 373 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 4: And then right after that we have Texas is coming 374 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 4: up in May. First week of May. I think there's Texas, 375 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 4: tons of races over in Texas. We have Pennsylvania at 376 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 4: the end of the year. Virginia's coming up. There's a 377 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 4: lot of big and important states. And what I would 378 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 4: say to people is this. A lot of Republicans are 379 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 4: saying Trump's in office, how great. We don't have to 380 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 4: go crazy, you don't have to get wild. He's got 381 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 4: everything going on. And I would say it's as good 382 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 4: as having a great police chief who has corrupt cops. 383 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 4: You can only do so much without foot soldiers on 384 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 4: the ground who are making sure executive orders are attuned 385 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 4: to or fought for. I'll give you a perfect example 386 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 4: in Kansas, in a conservative area, Trump area, there was 387 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 4: a bill to sit there and carry out Trump's policies 388 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 4: on DEI was in a conservative district, and it went 389 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 4: down because one conservative flipped. Now my pack has promised 390 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 4: to spend twenty thousand dollars to remove him from office 391 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 4: in the upcoming election, and state representatives have also sat 392 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 4: there and said they got a campaign against this member. 393 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 5: Of the school board. 394 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 4: But members of school boards and local government are super 395 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 4: important to carry out the things in your everyday life 396 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 4: that the president's in there and trying to pursue the 397 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 4: executive order. You can't have a great president and bad 398 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 4: local officials and expect things to just get better. You 399 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 4: have to have good local officials too. 400 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: That you could argue there were a lot more important 401 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: than the office of the presidency. Okay, so let's talk nationally. 402 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: That was a lot of ugliness. What are we looking 403 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 1: at nationally? Every time you wake up, there's a new 404 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: poll showing Democrats are in support Jasmine Crockett, who I 405 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 1: just adore, will not stop getting her face all over television. 406 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 1: Republicans even Trump himself pretty high approval ratings for the 407 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: modern era. But this is what I see. You see 408 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: it differently, What do you see? 409 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 3: No? 410 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 4: I mean, listen, Democrats are in a world of hurt 411 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 4: right now. They're looking for a message. That doesn't mean 412 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 4: they can't win in a twenty twenty six mid term 413 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 4: given that low propensity voters don't show up as much. 414 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 4: Showing up is everything, and as you talked about Jesse 415 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 4: a lot on your show, especially in primaries, the ones 416 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 4: who show up are the ones who decide elections. Why 417 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 4: do we still have moderate Republicans in deep Republican counties 418 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 4: because you don't show up in primaries. But I will 419 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 4: say that in the upcoming elections for the twenty twenty 420 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 4: six on a national scene, Republicans are not We don't 421 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 4: see the tide of a wave election coming up yet. 422 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 4: I mean in twenty twenties and twenty seventeen, Democrats already 423 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 4: had a five point lead in the generic ballad ahead 424 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 4: of the twenty eighteen election. Right now they have about 425 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 4: a one point and the undecided vote is much much smaller. 426 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 4: There's a lot of open seats that we could sit 427 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 4: there and take. In the US Senate, there's a lot 428 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 4: of competitive elections in the House that Trump won last 429 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 4: time that we could certainly win this time. And Democrats 430 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 4: don't know the naturally, But Republicans really have to get 431 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 4: engaged very very early in this cycle, and we'll see 432 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 4: if that happens. 433 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: Ryan, everybody has an explanation for why Democrats are creatoring 434 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: Everybody on the right as an explanation. Everyone on the 435 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: left has an explanation. What's the Ryan Gurdsky explanation. 436 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 4: I think part of it is because they on issues 437 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 4: don't follow and where the American people are. They really 438 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 4: are the party of people that Americans just don't like. 439 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 4: I mean, if you think that the dime store version 440 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 4: of Cardi B known as Jasmine Crockett is who should 441 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 4: be the face of your party and people who are 442 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 4: barely speaking English on a daily basis and just having 443 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 4: awfuls in front of you, who are lecturing you constantly, 444 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 4: I think that you don't understand the mood of the people. 445 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 4: And also the fact is that COVID really change young people. 446 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 4: According to the David Shore Data who's a democratic data scientist, 447 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 4: the most Republican demographic in the last election were white 448 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 4: men between the ages of eighteen and twenty. People who 449 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 4: lost out on high school, people who lost out on 450 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 4: prom and sports games and social life and were suck 451 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 4: watching TikTok and Instagram are the most right wing generations 452 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,679 Speaker 4: since the Greatest generation that fought World War two. I 453 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,199 Speaker 4: don't think that it could be underestimated right now how 454 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,479 Speaker 4: badly COVID really affect him. 455 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 2: And I'll say one other thing. 456 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,199 Speaker 4: The population loss that happened in COVID, in Chicago, in 457 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 4: LA in New York that were supposed to result in 458 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 4: dozens of House seats lost them in twenty thirty, that's 459 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 4: probably been in half now, Like the amount of seats 460 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 4: that were going to lose is half of what they're 461 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 4: probably going to lose because mass immigration has replaced the 462 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,880 Speaker 4: Americans that left. People have been moving to those places. 463 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 4: Mass immigration stops Democrats from feeling the actual fallout from 464 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 4: their failed policies. And I don't think that can be 465 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 4: expressing of it. And it's not just illegal immigration, it 466 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 4: is legal immigration. It needs to be emphasized over and 467 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 4: over and over again, how badly legal immigration keeps the 468 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 4: Democratic Party propped up. They would probably losing three to 469 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 4: four seats in New York in the next redistricting, and 470 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: four to five in California, and they're probably going to 471 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 4: lose two to three in Niche now. 472 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,239 Speaker 1: Which is of course the entire point of filling up 473 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: your country with barbarians. 474 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 2: Cancel out the. 475 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: American patriot, who's your mortal enemy if you're a Democrat? 476 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 2: Okay, Ryan, before I let you go. 477 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: Why should I give a crap about New Jersey Other 478 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: than the fact that I have friends there and they 479 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: have delicious sandwiches. 480 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 4: You should give a crap about New Jersey because it's 481 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 4: going to be America's next swing state. And if it 482 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 4: becomes America's next swing state and Republicans have a chance 483 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 4: of winning it, there is no chance of a Democratic 484 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 4: president becoming going to the whitest again. Republicans have out 485 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 4: registered new voters in New Jersey every single month since 486 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two. They've moved the state has moved to 487 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 4: the right in three consecutive elections presidential, congressional, and goognatorial. 488 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 4: And I think there's a real chance of Republicans. Democrats 489 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 4: lead in New Jersey has gone down by over two 490 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty thousand votes registered Democratic advantage, and it 491 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 4: holds tons of congressional seats, tons of opportunity as far 492 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 4: as making a new purple state for the election. And 493 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 4: Jersey was a consistently Republican state from sixty eight to 494 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 4: eighty eight. It's been democratic for thirty years now, there's 495 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 4: no reason it can't be Republican again. 496 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: Ryan, thank you, my brother.

Joining me now, a great senator from the 525 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: state of Wisconsin, Senator Ron Johnson, Senator, I know you're 526 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 1: already speaking out about this. The things I found out 527 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: last night had me flat out crying in my evening coffee. 528 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 5: What's happening, Well, you got to tell me why you're 529 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,719 Speaker 5: crying at coffee. I actually think we're making some headway 530 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 5: because we've dug our heels in here and let people 531 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 5: know our heels are dug in until we have a realistic, 532 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 5: a reasonable pre pandemic, a spending level, and a commitment 533 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 5: in a process to achieve it. 534 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: Yes, Senator, but I don't hear that commitment from the House. 535 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: I guess I should have clarified. The Senate seems to 536 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: be okay. Apparently what landed on your desk from the 537 00:27:58,119 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: House is not good. 538 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 4: No. 539 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 5: And you know Leader Thun knows full well that he 540 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 5: shouldn't even bring that up for a vote because it 541 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 5: won't even survive the motion proceed And so we had 542 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 5: we had a long conversation. He's fully aware of the 543 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 5: options I've laid out. And again, just to simplify this, 544 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 5: if you take a previous year's outlays, whether it's Clinton 545 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 5: ninety eight, Obama in twenty fourteen, or Trump in twenty nineteen, 546 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 5: leave Social Security, Medicare, and you can even leave Medicaid alone. 547 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 5: Don't touch those. Just spend what we're spending in twenty 548 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 5: twenty five, increase the other total outlayers for those years 549 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 5: by population growth and inflation, you'd have total annual spending 550 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 5: a somewhere between five point five and six point five 551 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 5: trillion dollars. So let's just talk about twenty nineteen. That's 552 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 5: the six point five trillion dollars. Nobody can argue against 553 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 5: the fact that if you spend what we spent in 554 00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 5: twenty twenty nine, fully inflated for population growth and inflation, 555 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,239 Speaker 5: exempting Social County, Medicare and Medicaid, that that's not a 556 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 5: reasonable proposal. In quite honestly, we should not spend a 557 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 5: dying more than that. And yet the House resolution would 558 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 5: take seven point three trillion, which is what we're spending 559 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 5: this year. Knock off about one hundred and fifty billion, 560 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 5: and say, hell, did we do a great job. And oh, 561 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 5: by the way, we're gonna increase testily by four trillion 562 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 5: dollars that ain't flying in the Senate and now people know. 563 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 2: That, Oh praise god. 564 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,959 Speaker 1: How does it build like this? How does the House 565 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: which we control, how do they even send something like 566 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: this to your desk? I was told one point five 567 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: trillion in cuts over ten years, which of course is 568 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 1: the old Washington gimmick that everybody watching understands never actually materializes. 569 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 2: Jesse, we don't. 570 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 5: I come from manufacturing background, right, You don't have a 571 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 5: good product without a good process. We do not have 572 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 5: a good process for controlling spending in washingt d C. 573 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 5: It's obvious, you know, the Budget Act is said teventy 574 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 5: four set up all this insane, all these insane rules 575 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 5: that hasn't worked, the old way of doing things. By 576 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 5: the way, by separating out discretionary spending, which is the 577 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 5: only thing we appropriate appropriate versus mandatory. Only twenty four 578 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 5: percent is actually appropriated now seventy six percent is not 579 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 5: automatic spending. And most people think, well, that's social kitty, 580 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 5: Medicare and Medicaid. No, there's one point three trillion dollars 581 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 5: additional to Social Security, Medicare, and medicaid. It's growing from 582 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 5: six point forty two to one point three trillion dollars 583 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 5: since twenty nineteen. We can do that in reconciliation. So 584 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 5: again I keep hearing my you know, these these brave 585 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 5: members are conference, well, we're acting, we're not serious about 586 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 5: cut cutting spending lists, we're willing to address those entitlements. No, 587 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 5: you can, you can literally ignore those exempt them, and 588 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 5: you can be at no more now that dying more 589 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 5: than six point five trillion dollars. Personally, I would start 590 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 5: with the Clinton budget, which passed seventy seven to twenty 591 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 5: two in the US Senate seventy two. We have current 592 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 5: centators on both sides the out that voted for that. Okay, 593 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 5: you start there at five point five plus up for defense, 594 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 5: that happened four nine to eleven for vets, you're still 595 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 5: no more than six trillion dollars, which, by the way, 596 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 5: was the Senate budget resolution. That was our aspirational goal 597 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 5: in the you know, the border security budget resolution that 598 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 5: we passed. We should have done that. By the way, 599 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 5: we should have broken this down into steps. I think 600 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 5: President Trump got sold a bill of goods by the House. 601 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 5: I think can pass this one big, beautiful bill. I 602 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 5: think that's a pretty risky bet right there, when you 603 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 5: understand the complexity of that and how difficult that's going 604 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 5: to be to pass. So I would still recommend President 605 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 5: Trump abandoned that, embrace the Senate, get him his border security. 606 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 5: The next step would be just extend the current tax code. 607 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 5: Take a massive automatic tax increase off the table, which, 608 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 5: by the way, is there because we blew it in 609 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 5: the Tax Cutting Jobs Act. We allowed these things to 610 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 5: automatically expire. We shouldn't do that. Fix for that, you 611 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 5: just use current policy. There's no score for extending the 612 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 5: current tax law. Okay, So again, again, this place is insane. 613 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 5: I come from the private sector. You know, from my standpoint, 614 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 5: this is an alternate universe. 615 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 2: I can sense your frustration, Senator. 616 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: Since we can't clone you, how do we ensure that 617 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: future senators ten years from now, twenty years from now, 618 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: how do we ensure that we can get any kind 619 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: of physical sanity? Is there a solution? Is it a 620 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: balanced budget amendment? Is there any rule you can put 621 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: into place? Or as long as we send politicians to DC, 622 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: they're going to find a way to jack taxpayer money 623 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,479 Speaker 1: and hand it out to their friends. 624 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 5: If you're taling constants them and I would limit spending 625 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 5: to a certain stent of GDP. But right now, the 626 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 5: reason I'm pushing this panel, you know, a by camera. 627 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 5: So you have senators, you have House members, you have 628 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 5: members of the administration, probably from OMB sitting on a 629 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 5: budget view panel, and you bring up the department heads, 630 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 5: the secretaries, the CFOs, and you go line by line, 631 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 5: twenty four hundred lines in the twenty twenty five budget. 632 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,959 Speaker 5: You go line by line and just have the people explain. So, so, 633 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 5: why is this line item, you know, one billion dollars 634 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 5: higher than twenty nineteen, fully inflated for population and inflation. 635 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 5: Why is it a billion dollars over that level? Oh 636 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 5: you can't explain it. Well, you're not going to get 637 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,239 Speaker 5: that extra billion dollars cut that account. You do that 638 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 5: twenty four hundred times. I'm not saying there's a billion 639 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 5: dollars in each one of those expenditure lines. But if 640 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 5: there was, that'd be two point four trillion dollars a 641 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 5: year savings. Again, that's you don't have a billion each line. 642 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 5: But you go line by line. Do you put in 643 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 5: the work? Jesse, We never look at seventy six percent 644 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 5: of the budget. It's an automatic pilot. You start there 645 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 5: and bring it all in so at least we're looking 646 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 5: at it, but look at it line by line. And 647 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 5: just like in the private sector and anybody who's ever 648 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 5: been in management and had to go in front of 649 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 5: a budget review committee, you know, if you're beating your numbers, 650 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 5: it's pretty comfortable meeting. If you're not beating your numbers, 651 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 5: it's not going to be pleasant. And as I keep saying, 652 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 5: in the private sector, this would be easy if I 653 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 5: would have told my managers, hey, listen, I'll let you 654 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 5: increase your budget based on the number of customers you 655 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 5: serve and inflation. 656 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:21,240 Speaker 2: Go ahead. 657 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 5: Six years later, if I come back and go, hey, 658 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 5: you're ten percent over that, what are you doing? If 659 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 5: I don't fire you, I'm going to make sure that 660 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 5: you dial back your spending to at least you know 661 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 5: what I directed you to so again. 662 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 2: To me, this is such low hanging fruit. 663 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 5: This is painless, quite honestly, other than the fact you 664 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,479 Speaker 5: had to go line by line and get these again, 665 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 5: all the departments heads justifying twenty four hundred lines of expenditures. 666 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 2: It's work. 667 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 1: It's work. I appreciate you very much and what you're doing. Senator, 668 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 1: thank you. Please keep it up. I mean, sense is frustration. 669 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 1: Ron Johnson's like the nicest guy I know. He's ready 670 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: to kill somebody. 671 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 2: Anyway. We have more. 672 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 3: Next here, we have a presidential memorandum for your attention. 673 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 3: This memorandum requires the immediate declassification of all FBI files 674 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 3: relating to the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. This was obviously one 675 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 3: of the instances of the weaponization of law enforcement powers 676 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 3: of prosecution against you and others. We believe that it's 677 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,879 Speaker 3: long pastime for the American people to have a full 678 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 3: and complete understanding of what exactly is in. 679 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 6: Those files, which gives the media the right to go 680 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 6: in and go and check it. You probably won't bother 681 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 6: because you're not going to like what you say. 682 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 2: What are they going to see? 683 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: Crossfire Hurricane seems like I've heard of that before joining 684 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: me now to discuss it and where we might be 685 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: going from here. Hans Monkey, author of the book Swift 686 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: Voting America, which I would highly recken. Okay, Hans, refresh 687 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: my memory. There's too many scandals, too many news stories. 688 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: Crossfire Hurricane, what is it? Why are we declassifying things? 689 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 2: So? 690 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 6: Crossfire Hurricane was the investigation into the Trump campaign that 691 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 6: was opened in July of twenty sixteen by James Comy 692 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 6: and his cabal, and that carried on all the way 693 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 6: into May of twenty seventeen when the Muller people took over. 694 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 6: So we're looking at about a year's worth of materials. 695 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 6: Now a lot of them have been released already. So 696 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 6: this is kind of what I'm expecting this to be, 697 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 6: is kind of filling gaps, tying up loose ends, kind 698 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 6: of things like that. Now, when you look at the 699 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 6: order that President Trump signed, it actually has some more 700 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 6: details about it refers to a list of things that's 701 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 6: going to be released. So they kind of made it 702 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 6: sound like everything is going to be released, but it's 703 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 6: not going to be quite everything is. There's a list. 704 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 6: It's it's called the so called Binder. It was actually 705 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 6: meant to be released President Trump's first term, but then 706 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 6: Mark Meadows kind of stopped that from happening, the chief 707 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 6: of staff at the time. No one quite understands why 708 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 6: that happened. But anyway, I think we're finally now at 709 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 6: the point where we will see this binder, which is 710 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 6: going to contain hopefully a lot of juicy information on 711 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 6: that cross Fire Hurricane investigation. 712 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 2: OS. 713 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 1: What do we believe from all this, because look, you're 714 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: never going to convince me that Barack Obama didn't authorize 715 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: all these things, but that's what I believe. 716 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 2: What do you believe? 717 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 6: Well, I believe that too. And the sad part about 718 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 6: this release and I'm not trying to kind of kind 719 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 6: of denigrade it or whatever. I'm always happy when stuff 720 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 6: is released. 721 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:42,879 Speaker 2: This is good. 722 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 6: But the sad part is we're only talking cross Fire 723 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 6: Hurricane and only FBI, and the Barack Obama part doesn't 724 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 6: pertain to cross Fire Hurricane and FBI. Now specifically, we 725 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,760 Speaker 6: know that Obama was briefed by the CIA in July 726 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 6: of twenty sixteen, that is, before this investigation opened, and 727 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 6: he was briefed on the fact that this was all 728 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 6: Hillary Clinton's idea that this was Hillary Clinton's campaign a 729 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 6: dirty trick, that she was the one who orchestrated it, 730 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 6: that she was the one who decided to paint Donald 731 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 6: Trump as a Russian agent. So Obama then instead of 732 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 6: shutting it down, he escalated it, he weaponized it. So 733 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 6: he's completely behind it. Now. The problem is all the 734 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 6: documents pertaining to that are CIA documents, and those are 735 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 6: the ones I'd like to see. 736 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, that sure would be interesting to know if America's 737 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: foremost intelligence agency was involved in trying to stop the 738 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,880 Speaker 1: Republican nominee for president, that would be kind of a 739 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: big deal. Anyway, Hans, let's shift gears. Michael Walls is 740 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: on Fox News with all this signaled chat stuff saying 741 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 1: things like this today, so. 742 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 7: They want to focus on this. It's embarrassing. Yes, we're 743 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 7: going to get to the bottom of it. 744 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 2: We have. 745 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 7: I just talked to Elon on the way here. We've 746 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 7: got the best technical minds looking at how this happened. 747 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 7: But I can tell you, I can tell you for 748 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 7: one hundred percent. I don't know this guy. I know 749 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 7: him by his horrible reputation and he really is the 750 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 7: bottom scum of journalists. Uh, And I know him in 751 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 7: the sense that he hates the president. 752 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 6: But I don't text him. 753 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:12,320 Speaker 2: He went on my phone. 754 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 7: And we're going to figure out how this happens. So 755 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 7: you don't know what staffer is responsible for this right now? Well, look, 756 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 7: a staffer wasn't responsible. And look, I take full responsibility. 757 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 7: I built the I built the group to My job 758 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 7: is to make sure everything's coordinated. 759 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 2: But how did That's acute? 760 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 7: I mean, I don't mean to be pedantic here, but 761 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:29,479 Speaker 7: how did the number? 762 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 2: Have you ever had? 763 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,439 Speaker 7: Have you ever had somebody's contact that shows their name 764 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 7: and then you have an and then you have somebody else? Right, 765 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 7: you've got somebody else's number on someone else's contact. So 766 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 7: of course I didn't see this loser in the group. 767 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 7: It looked like someone else. Now, whether he did it 768 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 7: deliberately or it happened in some other technical means something 769 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 7: we're trying to figure out. 770 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,760 Speaker 1: Okay, Hans, look like I, Like I said earlier today, 771 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:56,320 Speaker 1: we made a mistake. 772 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 2: It's a huge mistake. I'm ready to move on. 773 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: But that and there is honestly a little bit confusing 774 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: to me. It's my chat. I created it. It definitely 775 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 1: wasn't a staffer. I also don't know the guy. We're 776 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 1: investigating how he was added. Look, Jeffrey Goldberg maybe a 777 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 1: weapons great scumbag, but he's also not Jason Bourne. It 778 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: didn't add himself to the chat. Someone did. 779 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 6: Yeah, No, I completely agree with you there. I think 780 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 6: it was a mistake going on Fox News. It's generally 781 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 6: a mistake going on any news show, or on any 782 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 6: show or or you know, to do with if you're 783 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 6: in a legal situation to talk to anyone unless and 784 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 6: until you have your story straight. And he obviously didn't 785 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 6: have a story straight, and so I guess he was 786 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 6: sent in there to kind of clean up the mess, 787 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 6: and frankly, he made the mess even worse because, as 788 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 6: you say, now it is sort of innuendo with Elon 789 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 6: and hacking and this and that. And I agree it 790 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 6: makes no sense what they should have done and what 791 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 6: appears to have happened here, and I agree with you 792 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 6: is someone screwed up. Whether it was Waltz himself or 793 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 6: one of his people, someone screwed up. Someone got the 794 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 6: wrong numbers, the wrong name in there, and then you know, 795 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,239 Speaker 6: things took their course from there. So they should just 796 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 6: own up, just said we screwed up. We shouldn't have 797 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,040 Speaker 6: put this guy in there. We thought it was another JG. 798 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 6: You know, that Goldberg whatever there was. There's a the 799 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 6: US trade representative. He's called Greer. Maybe it was him, 800 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 6: I don't know, but just just say it that you 801 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 6: know there was someone else JG. And they just got 802 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 6: messed up. They screwed up, and it won't happen again. 803 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 6: And then don't talk about it anymore. What's the what 804 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 6: was the point in going on that Fox News show 805 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 6: and today as well? They just keep talking about it. 806 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 6: Just say you own up to the mistake, and then 807 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 6: just don't talk about it anymore. 808 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I'm getting frush. I've been frustrated the entire time. 809 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 1: I'm frustrated no one was fired. Now I'm frustrating they're 810 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 1: still talking about it. I do not think the trub 811 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 1: administration has handled this well at all. 812 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,880 Speaker 2: Big, big, big screw up, and I don't like it 813 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 2: at all. 814 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:56,439 Speaker 1: Okay, moving past that, Uh, there's a judicial coup going 815 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,399 Speaker 1: on in the country where communist judges are stopping every 816 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 1: meetul thing that Trump administration tries to do. I know 817 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: how I want it handled, Hans, How do you want 818 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: it handled? 819 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 6: It's a difficult one. Now I'm going to where my 820 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 6: lawyer's hat here. I don't fully disagree with the idea 821 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 6: that judges should have the right to issue these sweeping injunctions, 822 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:23,280 Speaker 6: but of course in very particular circumstances. So the government 823 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 6: starts rounding up anyone with Japanese heritage, you know, like 824 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 6: they did seventy eighty years ago, that's when you need 825 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 6: these people to step in. But of course that so 826 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 6: that's the initial idea behind it, and then of course 827 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 6: it's been completely abused and now they just step in 828 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 6: at any juncture and so on. So ultimately I think 829 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 6: it's going to have to change. That means the court, 830 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 6: the district court at the lowest level, will have to 831 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 6: get its wings clipped. And I think what will have 832 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 6: to happen is that they will need to be told 833 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 6: so that the Supreme Court will need to step in, 834 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 6: and hopefully they do it at some point. You know, 835 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 6: they've been kind of dragging their feet, and just outline 836 00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 6: the circumstances in which the district courts, the lowest level 837 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 6: of the courts, can step in and what they can do. 838 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 6: So for starters, they should only be able to act 839 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 6: on behalf of some clients that they actually have. So 840 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 6: for instance, in this case of these Venezuelan gang members, 841 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 6: there was actually five clients, and the government actually did 842 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,640 Speaker 6: everything as asked of them by the courts in relation 843 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 6: to these five clients. The problem is that this judge 844 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 6: Boseburg then kind of made it more sweeping. He said, well, 845 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 6: it's not the five before me. Yes, but I'm gonna 846 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 6: just apply to everyone. And that's a big problem where 847 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 6: it's become a big problem. So I think the Supreme 848 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 6: Court will just have to step in and kind of 849 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,320 Speaker 6: put in some boundaries, put in some some offenses here 850 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 6: to make this more clear. Now, I'm not confident, not 851 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 6: very confident that that will happen, because we got Roberts 852 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 6: on the court and of course Amy Cony Barrett, so 853 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 6: it's kind of more of a five to four liberal 854 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,439 Speaker 6: court than it is a six' to three conservative, court 855 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 6: as we're always. Told SO i think ultimately what will 856 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 6: happen is that they The Supreme court will rein in 857 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,360 Speaker 6: some of these abuses but not. Others they'll kind of 858 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 6: take a pick and choose, approach and they're probably not 859 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,320 Speaker 6: going to clip the wings of these courts in any 860 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 6: kind of long term fashion. 861 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 1: Bonds as, Always thank, you my.
