He brought some whistle 65 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: blowers together well. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Rassey revealed 66 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: yesterday the latest data shows that the Department of Health 67 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: and Human Services under President Trump placed over ten thousand, 68 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: eleven thousand migrant children with sponsors who weren't veted. They 69 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: didn't go to the criminal background checks. We didn't know 70 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: who they really were. The data also found that from 71 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: January twenty twenty one through January twenty twenty five, those 72 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: unaccompanied migrant children were not only placed with unvetted sponsors. 73 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 2: They weren't followed up with in home studies. 74 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: About seventy nine thousand children under the age of twelve 75 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: did not get a home study as required by the 76 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: Biden Department of Biden Administration's own rules. 77 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: Keep in mind, these are the most vulnerable of vulnerable children. 78 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: They were brought here to the United States without their parents, 79 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: oftentimes at the behest of the cartel or human tras 80 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: offcas and you have to ask yourself, how did this 81 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: end up happening? And why are we just hearing about 82 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: these numbers now? Well, I think those are questions our 83 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: next guest may be able to answer quite well, since 84 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: he's the man who fused first ug into joining me. 85 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: Now from the great state of Wisconsin, Rice spent eight 86 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: years of my career very happily. Congressman Glenn Growthman, so 87 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: good to have you on the show today. 88 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 3: Well to be on the show. Sorry, we couldn't discuss 89 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 3: the more cheerful topic. 90 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 4: But you've got to remember the first of all, how 91 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 4: quiet the other party is right now, the party that 92 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 4: is supposedly is concerned about children being separated from their parents. 93 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 4: Remember families are being separated. Well, now we find out 94 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 4: that under Joe Biden, over seventy thousand children were in 95 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 4: this country without their parents, not being appropriately better. And 96 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 4: I think the horrible things going on in Russia and 97 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 4: which Russia is didn't have to be bringing in children 98 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 4: of growth brother in this country. The zeal to get 99 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 4: as many people in the country as possible and change 100 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 4: Americas quickly as orrigorically led to over sit seventy thousand 101 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 4: children without I don't know about parents or without adults 102 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 4: have improper and improperly better. 103 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 2: It's just unbelievable. The rules were clear. 104 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: The profession of the Democratic Party was, well, take care 105 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: of these kids. We know that again them here under 106 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: difficult circumstances that the Democratic Party forced, But then not 107 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: to do the basics I mean you said, I think 108 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: the last time we talked about this, they prioritize speed 109 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: over the safety of children. Was their political inter so 110 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: great that they were willing to overlook the safety. 111 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 4: Of children absolutely well siddenly overlooked, not only in this area, 112 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 4: but they overlook the safety of American citizens, all the criminals. 113 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 5: Again, Barack Obama, Joe Biden's kind of mentoring success or 114 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 5: made it clear he wanted to fundamentally change America. How 115 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 5: do you fundamentally change America? You led nine ten eleven. 116 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 4: Million people on bed coming to the country, and among 117 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 4: those inappropriately vetted people are over seventy thousand children, a 118 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 4: lot of them better. 119 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 3: So that's what you had. That has been the goal 120 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 3: of Joe Biden. 121 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 4: I would say that means a goal of fundamentally destroying America, 122 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 4: because you can't take them many people in a country 123 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 4: without changed what the country was like. So here we 124 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 4: are all these children. Poor President Trump is one more 125 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,799 Speaker 4: time left cleaning up the mess that Joe Biden had. 126 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 4: We've got to see we can eventually put these children 127 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 4: back with their parents, send them home to their country 128 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 4: of origin. And I hopefully as successor, it's sure going 129 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 4: to be harder over seventy thousand children with their parents. 130 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 4: But that's the mess Joe Biden left Donald Trump with. 131 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's a monstrous effort. And obviously some of 132 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: these kids they might not still not know where they 133 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: are because of the fact that the government lost track 134 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: of them, which was the very point you made at 135 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: the beginning of this. 136 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 2: They had whistleblowers. 137 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: They knew this was going to be a problem, right, 138 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: There were whistleblowers coming forward, and it sounds like they 139 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: just put ear muffs in and didn't want to listen 140 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: to them. 141 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 2: When you look back at. 142 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: Those whistleblowers who first alerted you in the country to this, Uh, 143 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: they did a country a big favor, but they didn't 144 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: get treated very well. 145 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: Did they. 146 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 4: Now at another problem, by the way, another thing you 147 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 4: remember about this, there was a time where we did 148 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 4: DNA testing to see whether at child. That's something else 149 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 4: that Joe Biden was not has. 150 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 3: He didn't care who was taken care of this show. 151 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: All right, folks, welcome back. 152 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: I apologize we're having a little bit of technical difficulties. 153 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: I think we got some stability here, and we're going 154 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: to bring in our next guest because this is a 155 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: really big story.

You know, this started in the 180 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 6: last administration recognizing the need for on sharing our critical medications, 181 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 6: and we have picked up the ball again with the 182 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 6: President's executive orders for onshoing medications back here to the 183 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 6: United States. And we're really excited on the progress that 184 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 6: you know the administration is putting behind this. 185 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's and I don't think a lot of people knew, 186 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: but there is a strategic pharmaceutical reserve. I think I 187 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: might have been created in the first Trump administration, got 188 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: drained down during Biden years. But a lot of these 189 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: places we're sitting empty. You guys are quick at filling 190 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: it up. How long do you think before we have 191 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: a supply that makes us feel a little bit more comfortable. 192 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 6: Well, we're working on that right now. I can't talk 193 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 6: a whole lot about it. Due to some national security 194 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 6: issues on that. But you know, what the American people 195 00:09:55,480 --> 00:10:00,959 Speaker 6: really need to understand is that seventy percent of our APIs, 196 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 6: which are active pharmaceutical ingredients and key starting materials, are 197 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 6: manufactured in China and India, and even worse than that, 198 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 6: we have about ninety percent plus of our antibiotics are 199 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 6: manufactured there as well. So, you know, the Trump administration 200 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 6: has taken bold steps to really start on shoring the 201 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 6: products that we need here to you know, bolster up 202 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 6: our critical medications that are in short supply. 203 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, this was a warning sign. 204 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: We knew after COVID, but the Biden administration just didn't 205 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: do anything. You guys have jumped in action pretty quickly. 206 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: There's also a long term plan. So the short term 207 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: plan I understand is to get the ingredients backstock pilots 208 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: that we have protections. Long term, the opportunity to bring 209 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: back pharmaceutical manufacturing through the United States is big, and 210 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: the Big Beautiful Bill created some amazing tax incentives to 211 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: get that process rolling. Are you starting to see pharmaceutical 212 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: companies taking advantage of these new tax laws. 213 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a lot of levers that can be pulled 214 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 6: and need to be used in order to bring on 215 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 6: shoring back. You know, over the past fifty years, we've 216 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 6: offshored everything to China especially, and now with the President 217 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 6: making the moves using those tools available to him, he's 218 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 6: allowed manufacturers to actually step back into the space of 219 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 6: coming back and on shoring medications. You know, we've got 220 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 6: some critical partnerships successes. We have flow down in Petersburg, Virginia, 221 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 6: who's doing beatch manufacturing of product. And we have on 222 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 6: demand pharmaceuticals in Rockfield, Maryland. That's another success story. So 223 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 6: we have some great stuff in the pipeline as well, 224 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 6: and we're really excited to really be you know, bringing 225 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 6: those medications back that are in shortage and that the 226 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 6: American people need, you know, in hospitals on the front lines. 227 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: Yea, so so important. 228 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: Obviously, the administration has taken the lead. Congress had some hearings. 229 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: You guys got the ball rolling with a very substantive fix. 230 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: What is what role can Congress play to help back 231 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: up and expand the success that the Trump administration has 232 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: put in motion these last few weeks. 233 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 6: Well, I mean, as everything you know, we move at 234 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 6: the speed of money. 235 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: That's true, is it? 236 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 4: Uh? 237 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 6: We can't compete, you know, with China in the traditional 238 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 6: sense of large batch manufacturing in that space. So looking 239 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 6: at you know over here at Asper and through our 240 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 6: IBMSC program, we're looking at innovative technologies, you know, using 241 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 6: that American ingenuity to create new ways to to make 242 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 6: these medications so that we're not so dependent on foreign 243 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 6: sources because you know, it really is a critical national 244 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 6: security issue at this point when when you know, we 245 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 6: have these trade wars and economic issues going on, our 246 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 6: medications are very important for you know, the health of 247 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 6: the nation. You know, Secretary Kennedy wants to make America healthy, 248 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 6: but you know, in the introm in doing that, we 249 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 6: still have to be able to supply medications for you know, 250 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 6: the critically ill people that do need them at this 251 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 6: point in time. 252 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so important, and the plan was so comprehensive. 253 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: The opening shot, I think was really caught people and 254 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: got them excited because. 255 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 2: It's been a long for time coming. 256 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: The problem there is I think doctor j Botichar gave 257 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: us a good education on the show about a month 258 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: ago when he described China's intentions, which is they went 259 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: into this to sell low make it impossible for Americans 260 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: to come up, then make Americans reliant on China and 261 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: then leave us in always a potentially vulnerable position if 262 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 1: there was ever conflict understanding that threat going forward, how 263 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: does the terror strategy and all the things that the 264 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: Secretary himself is doing, how do we mitigate China's intentions 265 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: of the short term? 266 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 6: You know, I think American ingenuity is really what it 267 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 6: comes down to. You know, Uh, Doctor Bodichari has said 268 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 6: it very well when when he spoke with you. You know, 269 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 6: there is that influence and and I think that that 270 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 6: getting the administration, you know that they're on board and 271 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 6: really moving in that space to bring that that on 272 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 6: shoring of pharmaceuticals back is what's really critical. I think 273 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 6: action by Congress is really important as well. I know 274 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 6: that they understand the need for on shoring. 275 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 2: As well, and so being able to work together. 276 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 6: To help the American people and stabilize our economy and 277 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 6: that that force is I think really important. 278 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is. A Doc Center. 279 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: Doc Marshall was on that show and he praised the 280 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: Trump administration and specifically AHHS because he said for a 281 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: year or two he could get nothing out of the 282 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: Biden administration. You guys came in and instantly there was engagement, 283 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: and that's what's resulted in this action already. So I 284 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: know Congress knows it has a partner right now. John Knox, 285 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: this is a great honor to have you on. Congratulations 286 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: on all of the excitement that the work at AHHS 287 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: is creating on many different things, including make America healthy again. 288 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 2: But great to have you on the show tonight. 289 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 6: Thanks for having us.

We're gonna stay on this topic for 294 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: another block. One of the men who brought this issue 295 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: to the forefront is incredible testimony to Congress and then 296 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: to us a couple of weeks ago, retired Colonel Vixwrz. 297 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 2: Next right after these messages.

One of the stars of the show that 302 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: there are a lot of big people on that show, 303 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: but I think I heard more people talk about a 304 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: retired Army colonel who did such a great job helping 305 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: us understand the crisis and what he experienced on the 306 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: frontline is trying to keep our soldiers safe overseas, and 307 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: he's rejoining us now to tell us all that's happened 308 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: since the show.

I know for a fact that back in May. 335 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 7: So this is just to let you know a little 336 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 7: bit of your audience know they're taking the initiative on this, 337 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 7: and they've already asked a request for information to industry 338 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 7: back in May of what twenty six or twenty seven 339 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 7: medicines could be produced domestically for not only API's precursor ingredients, 340 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 7: but also those that can make these finished dosage forms 341 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 7: for these essential medicines. Back in May, so that kind 342 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 7: of teed up the industry already to kind of keep 343 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 7: this in mind. Really, the next step after that is 344 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 7: really what John was talking about, is the difference we 345 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 7: have in the United States is innovation and technology, and 346 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 7: that's taking some of these products that we're really solely 347 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 7: reliant on legacy dirty chemical processes that are done in 348 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 7: India and China and quite frankly all over the world, 349 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 7: and leaping ahead in advanced manufacturing technologies where we can 350 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 7: make these drugs more efficiently using automation computers and also 351 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 7: using less solvents and things that are toxic that sometimes 352 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 7: get into the drugs when they're not purified correctly, and 353 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 7: that's why we have some of the variabilities and quality 354 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 7: coming out of some of those countries. And so by 355 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 7: harnessing some of the technologies that John Knox's team is 356 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 7: doing with some of these industry companies, we can basically 357 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 7: leap ahead and embrace that technology to do something uniquely American, 358 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 7: which is making these drugs the highest quality, make it 359 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 7: consistently and at scale, form a much cheaper price point 360 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 7: at the end. But the government has a role in 361 00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 7: here to help shape the incentives and the framework for 362 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 7: industry to go after that, and they need to have 363 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 7: that message for a good five to ten years so 364 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 7: that industry is willing to invest in the technology. We 365 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 7: need forging this ahead. 366 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 2: That's the key. 367 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: You got to have regulatory and economic certainty for a 368 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: plan like this to take fully form. 369 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 2: And so those guardrails I assume are being built. Now. 370 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: I've seen some and heard about some technology. I wonder 371 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: you probably know about it because you're on the horizon 372 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 1: of this extraordinary movement. We used to make large nuclear 373 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: power plants. Now we have smaller reactors that are just 374 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: as powerful. Are we able to kind of create like 375 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: sort of many factories quicker that can put some of 376 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: the more basic ingredients together and make drugs without having 377 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: to roll out a massive plant. 378 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 7: Yes, I mean there's some technologies and it's your previous 379 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 7: guest mentioned. He mentioned like on demand manufacturing capabilities. So 380 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 7: those are small scale. Think of like three D printers 381 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 7: for essential medicines that can be built in a facility 382 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 7: that's size of a small room, right, So you don't 383 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 7: have to invest three hundred million dollars GMP plants that 384 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 7: have you know, a huge capital expense tail Now, those 385 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 7: aren't going to necessarily replace the large, the large factories 386 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 7: that we need for the big volume medicines, but they 387 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 7: give us a new strategic capability to make drugs as 388 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,159 Speaker 7: you need them, and then deploy them precisely in the 389 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 7: areas you need them, even down to the hospitals or 390 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 7: healthcare systems, and let's say the rural areas that struggle 391 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 7: to get access to certain key medicines when there are 392 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 7: shortages or there's a worldwide pandemic. 393 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it gives us a running start. 394 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: It's so amazing to just think that that innovation is 395 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: sitting right here in America and ready to be acted 396 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: on in the next few months. All Right, So the 397 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: ball got rolling with President Trump. Obviously, John Knox is 398 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: clearly working this day and night. You can see the 399 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: progress already made. 400 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 2: What role can. 401 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: A Congress play in making sure that this gets to 402 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: the next level, and the next level and the next level, 403 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: so that we're advancing towards that ten year capability of 404 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: getting back to a full manufacturing machinery. 405 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, certainly Congress has a huge role into really setting 406 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 7: the demand signal for the next decade and really that 407 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 7: it's beyond just this sapper facility or the sapparate idea. 408 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 7: That's just the start of it. The Executive Order even 409 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 7: calls out a secondary sapper facility because not just one 410 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 7: can do enough to create this pharmaceutical independence for the 411 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 7: United States. I think the next kind of level is 412 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 7: identifying those American companies that can embrace this new innovation, 413 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 7: dynamic companies that are willing to make all these medicines 414 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 7: completely in the United States, and I think investing in 415 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 7: them and making sure that they have a position where 416 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 7: they can be awarded long term contracts so that they 417 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 7: can they in their investors, and their business plans can 418 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 7: actually mesh with a national policy to make these drugs 419 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 7: here in America. And I think that's kind of where 420 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 7: Congress has to and a signal is that they need 421 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 7: to have a message to industry saying, look, if we're 422 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 7: going to take this seriously and really boost this industrial 423 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 7: base for pharmaceuticals, we need to give you at least 424 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 7: a ten year commitment to doing this. 425 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the key to create that certainty, that path 426 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: to certainty. What has been the reaction inside the industry actually, 427 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: big Pharma, our big farmer is the best in the world. 428 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: We're the envy of the world when it comes to 429 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 1: our innovation. But this has been an area that pharmaceutical 430 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: companies knew was a maybe in the key lease heeld. 431 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: What has been the reaction in the industry since President 432 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: Trump jump started this conversation a couple of weeks ago. 433 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 7: I see, I think there's overall positive movement, but I 434 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 7: think there's Like I mentioned before, there's two different industries. 435 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 2: Right. 436 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 8: There's the big branded. 437 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 7: Pharma companies who have already showed a large commitment to 438 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 7: making more and more medicines here in the United States. 439 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 7: They have deep pockets. These are multi billion dollar corporations. 440 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 7: The area that I think that we're seeing more interest in, 441 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 7: and we need to get more interested in, is in 442 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 7: the generic pharmaceutical industry, where the margins aren't as good. 443 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 7: The price points that they're getting reimbursed are so low 444 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 7: that they can't even make a profit, and they end 445 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 7: up losing out to Indian and Chinese firms. So I 446 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 7: think sending a signal that there is a financial incentive 447 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 7: or maybe even preferences for a domestically made drug that's 448 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 7: made purely in the United States is going to be 449 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 7: valued or credited a little bit more for reimbursement is 450 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 7: a strong signal that we can send to those companies 451 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 7: to get into the game, to expand, and to invest 452 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 7: into domestic manufacturing and sometimes as minor as a five 453 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 7: to ten percent reimbursement. Yep, for a drama only spending 454 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 7: five dollars a bottle. 455 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 2: For Victor Soarez. You educated us all. 456 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: I'll never forget the stories you told us a few 457 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: short weeks ago, nor the impact that those stories have had. 458 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 2: Great honor to have you back in the show. 459 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: We're going to keep following with this with you for 460 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: the next few weeks. 461 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 2: But thanks for being with us tonight. 462 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 1: All right, folks, Next, our weekly Just the News Health Update, 463 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: one of your favorites. How your diet can help you 464 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 1: keep your arteries player and help prevent cardiovascu. That's important 465 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: all of us. We're going to tackle that next. Right 466 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: after these messages. 467 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 2: Blucome back in America. 468 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: Time for one of my favorite seconds, that Just the 469 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: News Health Update, brought to you by our good friends 470 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: at Natapath. 471 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 2: Joining us now the co founder and. 472 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: Chief culture officer at Natapath, doctor Chad Walding. 473 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 2: Doctor, good to have you back. 474 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 8: On Hey John, good to be here. Thank you for 475 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 8: having me. 476 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 1: I've been having a lot of fun this month because 477 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 1: we're kind of rolling back some of the myths that 478 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: got injected into the health dialogue of the last twenty years. Yeah, 479 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: we talked about seed oils being healthy. They're not so 480 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: healthy when you get it. Another one that got a 481 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: bad rap for a long time eggs, red meat, and protein. 482 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: There was a huge effort for a while to kind 483 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: of scare us away from those proteins. It actually has 484 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: a negative effect for us, doesn't it. 485 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's a big thing that is hurting us in 486 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 9: a big way, and it's making us protein deficient. You know, 487 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 9: I always go back to where where did this come from? 488 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 9: This narrative, right, that eggs will clog your arteries, that 489 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 9: red meat will give you cardiovascar disease. And you know, 490 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 9: when I started looking into the studies, there's a man 491 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 9: named Ansel Keys and he was an American physiologist and 492 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 9: he studied the influence on diet and health and he 493 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 9: got a lot of things wrong. 494 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 8: This was back in the fifties. 495 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 9: He did some studies on some European countries and he 496 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 9: came out with this big paper called the Seven Country Study, 497 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 9: and it came away from that with a hypothesis. It's 498 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 9: a hypothesis, but the hypothesis was the saturated fat is 499 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 9: what's causing cardiovascular disease, and that hypothesis is what really 500 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 9: set the stage for the food pyramid, you know, in 501 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 9: the eighties, when we had carbohydrates at the very base 502 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 9: of it, and at the top the very small thing 503 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 9: was protein, right, so protein was made out to be 504 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 9: the enemy. Turns out that ansel Keys it wasn't just 505 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 9: seven countries that he studied. It was actually twenty one 506 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 9: countries that he studied, and he only put in the 507 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 9: countries that really fit his bias. There's a lot of 508 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 9: controversy about that back then, but that's what really set 509 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 9: the stage for us fearing things. 510 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 8: Like egg yolks and fearing red meat. 511 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 9: And it also gave us permission to think that eating 512 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 9: whole healthy grains and carbohydrates were going to be good 513 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 9: for our health. So we would walk through the aisles 514 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 9: eating all these foods labeled as heart healthy, when they 515 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 9: were actually getting us in trouble. They were actually messing 516 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 9: up our metabolism in our blood sugar, making us more 517 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 9: insulin resistant. And what I have learned, you know, in 518 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 9: my experience, in my studies, through myself and working with clients, 519 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 9: is that going back to the things that our ancestors 520 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 9: ate you know, our ancestors are not afraid of egg yolks, 521 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 9: They weren't afraid of red meat, and they had very 522 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 9: low levels of heart disease. The first recorded heart disease 523 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 9: in our country Wasn't nineteen twelve, and now over thirty 524 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 9: percent of the deaths in our country are from heart disease. 525 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 9: It's not because we're eating egg yolks, it's not because 526 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,239 Speaker 9: we're eating red meat. It's because we're eating way too 527 00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 9: many refined carbohydrates, seed oils and not enough protein. Right, 528 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 9: So we really want to reverse our thinking and question 529 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 9: the narrative that we've been told. 530 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: All right, so maybe we flip the food pyramid around. 531 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 1: Maybe the carbohydrates shouldn't be at the base, but maybe 532 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: protein and meats and things like that are down to 533 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: the bottom. There are still a lot of myths out there. 534 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: What are some of the myths that we still need 535 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: to debunk as we get on the path to a 536 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: healthier lifestyle. 537 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 9: Well, one of them is it's all about calories, right, 538 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 9: It's just count your calories, calories in calories out I 539 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 9: really encourage people to think differently about that, because calories 540 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 9: do have something to do with it. But it's more 541 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 9: about the quality of those calories. Right, Some calories you 542 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 9: can eat just a little bit and you want some more. 543 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 9: You just can't stop eating those calories. There's more and more. 544 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 9: But some calories are extremely nutrient dense and very satiating, 545 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 9: and it gives. 546 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 8: Your body what you want. 547 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 2: Right. 548 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 8: When you have, let's say a steak. 549 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 9: You have a piece of steak, the first bite's good, 550 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 9: second one is good, but not as good as the 551 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 9: first one, third one, you're starting to get a little full. 552 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 9: The opposite thing happens when you're eating a twinkie, right, 553 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 9: and you can keep eating the same calories of steak 554 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 9: versus the tweakie, but they have completely different physiological responses 555 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 9: inside of your body and how hungry you get. So 556 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 9: I really encourage people to think about the quality of 557 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 9: the calories you eat rather than the quantity of the 558 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 9: calories you eat. We have to remember our great great ancestors, 559 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 9: who for the large part never dealt with being obese, 560 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 9: never counted their calories. Right, you don't see obesity in nature, 561 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 9: and those animals are not counting calories. 562 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 8: They eat as according to the way they're designed to eat. 563 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 8: And that's the way we need to think about our food. 564 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 10: Yeah, it's really a back to the future sort of 565 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 10: dynamic for the health. Go do what grahm On grandpa did, 566 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 10: but do it in the future of the way we 567 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 10: can do it now. It's such an easy path and 568 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 10: one key thing for those of us who particularly been 569 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 10: protein deficient for a while. Getting collagen in our diet 570 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 10: through native path that's a big, big game change, or 571 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 10: a good game starter for everyone. 572 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 2: Right. 573 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's you know, collagen. They call it the fourth 574 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 9: macronutrient because it's so important. It is the foundation of 575 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 9: what makes up the structure of your body. And in 576 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 9: our modern world we are so deficient in collagen. It's 577 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 9: something our ancestors got plenty of because of the way 578 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 9: they ate, but because we all grew up in this 579 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 9: world of refined and processed foods, not only are we 580 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 9: deficient in protein, we're deficient in collagen. And it's something 581 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 9: our body produces naturally, you know, we make it, and 582 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 9: we start to decline in our ability to make that 583 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 9: around the age of twenty. When we're in our fifties 584 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 9: and our sixties, we're making is half as much as 585 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 9: we did. So one of the easiest things we can 586 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 9: do for our health to really build up the structure 587 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 9: in the foundation of our body. And I'm talking our tendons, 588 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 9: our ligaments, our bones, our hair, our skin, our nails, 589 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 9: everything all that is made up of collagen. 590 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 2: You know. 591 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,479 Speaker 9: One of the easiest things we can do is just 592 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 9: start to supplement with it. It's a white, odorless powder 593 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 9: that dissolves easily into your coffee and your tea. You 594 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 9: can put it in your smoothies. But the important thing 595 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 9: is to make it a part of your day and 596 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 9: a native path. What makes our collagen different is the purity. 597 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 9: It is the cleanest, most bioavailable, efficacious collagen you're going 598 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 9: to find on the market. It kind is type one 599 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 9: and type three comes from bovine hides, and we see 600 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 9: outstanding results from people when they start taking on a 601 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 9: consistent basis. You know a lot of people start to 602 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 9: see the nails getting stronger, and then it changes in 603 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 9: the skin within a matter of two to three weeks, 604 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 9: and really you know, over the course of six to 605 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 9: nine months when people take it consistently, we'll see changes 606 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 9: in things like our bones and dexas scans. Right, So 607 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 9: I really encourage people to try it stay consistent and 608 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 9: really notice the differences that it makes in your body. 609 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 2: And it's just so easy too. You've made it easy. 610 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 2: Just a scoop or two into your coffe and you're 611 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 2: on your way every day. It really works.

We've talked 628 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: on the show a lot about the extraordinary rollback of 629 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: the Green New Deal agenda, Lee Zelden, President Trump, leading 630 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: that about two hundred regulatory actions rolled back, including the 631 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: holy Bible of liberals climate change thinking, the findings that 632 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: allowed all this regime to come in without Congress approving it. 633 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 2: Well, since that happened, a big news. 634 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: Has happened, and that is that we're back on record 635 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: oil and gas production. To help us make sense of 636 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: how this happened so quickly, is the publisher of the 637 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: Climate Depot. He's a former senior staffer at the US 638 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: Senate environ Public Works Committe. Has been count tracking this 639 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: stuff for decades. Good friend, Mark moranam Mark good heavy. 640 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 2: Back, Thank you, John, happy to be here. All right. 641 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: Big news we back as the world's number one leader 642 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: all time record production oil and gas. 643 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 7: Uh. 644 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 1: There's a direct line between that and what leez Elden's 645 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: been doing, right, and. 646 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 11: Chris Wright, and of course Donald Trump with his executive orders, 647 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 11: this has been the most amazing administration. I don't want 648 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 11: to knock Trump one point oh, but I just have 649 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 11: to say Trump two point zero is blown Trump one 650 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 11: point oh out of the water when it comes to climate, 651 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 11: energy and environment regulations for two key reasons, and not 652 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 11: only are we seeing the record oil and gas and 653 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 11: just you know, under six months, under seven months, we 654 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 11: brought it to the highest levels ever recorded. But the 655 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 11: two key reasons why the Trump administration is two point 656 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 11: zero is blowing away one point zero. They've gone after 657 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 11: the narrative of climate change, and they're now calling it 658 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 11: a cult, a scam of religion, unlike trying to like, oh, 659 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 11: of course it's a serious problem, lee Zelden is the 660 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 11: most consequentially eph And the second reason that is that 661 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 11: this is so significant is they're going after permanence, unlike 662 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 11: Trump one point zero. Oh, we're not going to go 663 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 11: after the CO two Endangered Finding. Oh, we're not going 664 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 11: to go after the underlying UN Climate treaty process, will 665 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 11: just pull out of Paris. Well, guess what day one 666 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 11: when Biden we were back in. Trump two point zero 667 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 11: is making this permanent. They got rid of the ev 668 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 11: mandate with an Act of Congress. So now you're not 669 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 11: going to have California regulating, you know, for the rest 670 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 11: of the country or the forty percent of the states 671 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 11: that go along with California. So these are changes that 672 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 11: they just can't reverse the next time around. And that 673 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 11: is what has been phenomenal to see. And again, the 674 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 11: most consequential EPA chief in history is Lee Zelden and 675 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,959 Speaker 11: Donald Trump when it comes to climate, energy, environment. I've 676 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 11: been following this since nineteen ninety two the Rio Earth's Treaty, 677 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 11: started working for Rush Limbab back then in nineteen ninety 678 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 11: two for his TV show covering the environmental left. Never 679 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 11: have we seen a dismantling and a takedown of the 680 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 11: entire agenda, and not just domestically, but globally also. 681 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 1: Some of the big promises that the far left may 682 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: toos just aren't true. Wind doesn't work like we thought 683 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: of what solar doesn't work like this? We had to 684 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 1: find spend trillions to find that. But another one, the 685 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 1: world wasn't ready to give up plastic despite our insistence. 686 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: It is the UN Plastics Treaty basically going up as 687 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: a vapor. 688 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 2: What do we learn from that lesson. 689 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 11: Well, we learned that the plastics issue was completely overblown, 690 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 11: as you would expect from anything affiliated with the United Nations. 691 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 11: Is a few Asian countries that are causing this problem 692 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 11: of plastic disposal. The Western Nations know how to handle plastic, 693 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 11: and the idea I just came to the grocery store 694 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 11: here in Virginia and I had to pay five cents 695 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 11: a bag, which is still based on this logic as 696 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 11: we're being penalized because we're using plastic. You know, they 697 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 11: did reusable The reusable bags they sell are way huge, 698 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 11: bigger carbon footprints because people don't reuse them, they end 699 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 11: up they end up buying these bags. They're filthy, they're 700 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 11: cesspools of bacteria. So we now know that most of 701 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 11: the world did not want to get involved in this 702 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 11: UN treaty. It went completely down in the sea. Even 703 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 11: the former head a Greenpeace, doctor Patrick Moore, has said 704 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 11: the sea of plastic in the ocean is a fiction 705 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 11: and so the whole thing was hyped overplayed. Plastic is 706 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 11: not the harming threat. We still have to be very 707 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 11: careful and good stewards of the earth and how we 708 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 11: dispose of it. But countries with wealth, prosperity and technology 709 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 11: can handle toxic waste. It's the poorer developing countries that 710 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 11: have the problem. So you don't bring down the entire 711 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 11: globe to deal with an alleged plastics problem. That's a 712 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 11: few bad countries that need help dealing with it. 713 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and destroy the economies in the process. All right, 714 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 2: we got about a minute left. 715 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,760 Speaker 1: There's a carryover from Trump one into the Biden administration. 716 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: A lot of people think was an enabler of this 717 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: green agenda, which then triggered all that inflation. That's our 718 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: fed cherman, Jerome Powell, real quickly, just give us your 719 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: thoughts on the role he played. 720 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 11: Well, Jerome Powell knows better. He pandered to the Biden 721 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 11: administration back in twenty twenty one and twenty two in 722 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 11: order to keep his job, and he allowed the United 723 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 11: States making industry to go net zero ESG. He got 724 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 11: the federal reserves involved in all this climate nonsense. Instead 725 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 11: of keeping his eye on money, supply, inflation, economic growth, 726 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 11: he started doing all the pandering and virtue signaling on 727 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 11: climate issues. And if there's no other reason, there's a 728 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 11: great reason for Donald Trump to remove him, just for 729 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 11: the ultimate sin of buying into that agenda. He did 730 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 11: it for the oldest reason in Washington, to keep his 731 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 11: power if he didn't pay because he was actually a 732 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 11: lot of Biden officials wanted him out, and he said no, no, no, 733 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 11: I can play the climate game too, and he committed 734 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 11: the US and it mostly had kept his eye off 735 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 11: the ball, and this is why we had helped with. 736 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,439 Speaker 1: And we're going to leave it there just because we're 737 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: out of time. We're going to get you back on 738 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: real soon. We love everything you do, folks. Sorry for 739 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: the technical difficulties. We'll be back tomorrow night. 740 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 2: Until then, Grant Stinchfeld's got you for the next hour.
