President 49 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: Trump and Elon Musk spending a whole lot of time together. 50 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,679 Speaker 1: On Tuesday, the duo was together in Texas for the 51 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: launch of SpaceX's giant Starship Rocket. Musk Space Company, of course, 52 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: pioneering technology to advance US space exploration. President Trump is 53 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: going to enjoy Thanksgiving this year without the prospect of 54 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: a sentencing hearing on that thirty four count conviction in 55 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: New York. However, the case isn't over just yet. Technically ahead, 56 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: we'll have the latest legal wrangling there in Manhattan. Plus, 57 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: doctor Oz has a new job in the Trump administration. 58 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: Find out who else the President elect is bringing on 59 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: or keeping with him in the West Wing. Those are 60 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: some of the stories we're monitoring for you on this 61 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: Wednesday morning. But doctor Gina, would you do us the 62 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: honor of giving us our Bible Verse of the day, please? 63 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 3: I will. You know, it's fascinating because I've been seeing 64 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 3: doctor Oz around here, so I knew there was an 65 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 3: announcement coming. I can just about you can just about 66 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 3: watch who's here, and then the next week or the 67 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: next few days, there will be an announcement every single 68 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 3: time and some fun sidebar conversations I'm going to share 69 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 3: later on in the show with some of these folks. 70 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 3: So right, let's check out today's Bible verse is Ephesians 71 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 3: chapter two, verse eight, for by grace you are saved 72 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 3: through faith, and not of your own work. It is 73 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,119 Speaker 3: a gift of God. So important to remember that by 74 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 3: grace we are saved through faith. Faith, grace of course 75 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 3: being Christ's death on the cross. On the cross, that's 76 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: how we're saved. And when we have just that tiny 77 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: ounce of faith, that's what engages us to that grace. 78 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 3: Such a beautiful mystery. I think we begin today with 79 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: the gift of freedom, mostly from years world of contrived 80 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: legal cases against President Trump, as the Daily Wire explains 81 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 3: in this headline Trump sentencing and Hushmany case indefinitely adjourned. 82 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: Let's bring in our first guest, Congressman Andrew Clyde of Georgia. Congressman, 83 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 3: you know this news it's getting You know, we got 84 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 3: numb to the bad news on all of the legal cases, 85 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 3: but now we're almost getting used to the good news 86 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 3: coming in for President Trump and Republicans in Congress. 87 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 5: Well, thank you, it's great to be with you all 88 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 5: this morning. I'll tell you every one of these cases 89 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 5: they're law fair and they need to be completely dismissed. 90 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 5: The Left has proven that this was just a sham 91 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 5: and is all they really wanted to do was to 92 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 5: prevent President Trump from being re elected as our forty 93 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 5: seventh president. And he has. He has had victory over 94 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 5: all of this. He has fought till the very end 95 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 5: and he has absolutely taken the victory lap here. And 96 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 5: I'll tell you that the American people are finished with this. 97 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 5: They knew it was lawfair to begin with, and President 98 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 5: Trump deserves to be completely exonerate. 99 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 2: Alome everyone no doubt about that. Congressman. 100 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 4: Also, we got some news about the latest Trump cabinet appoints. 101 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,559 Speaker 4: It seems like we're getting news every day on the hour, 102 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 4: every hour. They include Lenna McMahon for Secretary of Education. 103 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:28,679 Speaker 4: You have Howard Lutnick Secretary of Commerce, and then doctor Oz. 104 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 2: This is like turning into the apprentice doctor Oz to run. 105 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 4: The centers for Medicare and Medicaid services. 106 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 2: But the big focus remains on the mac Gates appointment. 107 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 4: Congressman for Attorney General Axios reporting this morning that quote. 108 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: Trump personally squeezes senators. 109 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,239 Speaker 4: That was what they said, squeeze the senators on Mat Gates, 110 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 4: and he's making phone. 111 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: Calls up there. 112 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 4: This afternoon, the House Ethics Committee, as you know, is 113 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 4: going to meet to discuss possibly decide whether the report 114 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 4: looking into those alleged sexual misconduct allegations against Gates will 115 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: be released. They just need one Republican to side with 116 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 4: the Democrats on this committee for it to be released. 117 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 2: What do you think you think that's going to happen. 118 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 5: Well, I think for them to release this report, this 119 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 5: interim report, would be absolutely unethical for the committee to 120 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 5: do that. Matt Gates is no longer a member of Congress. 121 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 5: The Ethics Committee has no authority whatsoever over Matt Gates. 122 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 5: For them to release this report would be unethical. It 123 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 5: would be I think a violation of their charter. And 124 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 5: therefore I think that the decision from all Republicans should 125 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 5: be absolutely no. They will not release They should not 126 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 5: release this report. Just Matt Gate quickly, go ahead. 127 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 2: Go ahead, please finish your thought. Go ahead. 128 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 5: Matt Gates is a phenomenal pick by President Trump. The 129 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 5: president deserves to have the cabinet that he chooses, and 130 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 5: I think Matt Gates will do an amazing job to 131 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 5: eliminate the weaponization in the Department of Justice and bring 132 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 5: the Department of Justice back to being non political whatsoever, 133 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 5: and to focus on the true mission, and that is 134 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,239 Speaker 5: justice for the American people. 135 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 4: What real quick as a follow up, what about full 136 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 4: transparency the argument that, you know what, let the Senator 137 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 4: see it. 138 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: If they've got advising consent, they need to see it. 139 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 5: Let me tell you something. If the Biden Department of 140 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 5: Justice did not prosecute Matt Gates, and believe me, they're 141 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 5: not a Department of Justice right now, that's in favor 142 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 5: of Matt Gates. If they chose not to not to 143 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 5: not to prosecute him because you know, there was no 144 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 5: evidence there, then the Ethics Committee doesn't need to be 145 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 5: releasing you know, basically innuendo and false claims. 146 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: M all right, Congressman, fairpoint there. I want to take 147 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: you to a story that's playing out in your own backyard, 148 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: and it has to do with that illegal immigrant who's 149 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,679 Speaker 1: accused of killing Lake and Riley, the Georgia nursing student. 150 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: One of the latest developments that came out in court yesterday, 151 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: and it's kind of highlighting this People magazine article says, basically, 152 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: wife of Lake and Riley murder suspect pleaded for answers 153 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: doing jail, call what happened with the girl? This is 154 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: the case that obviously you are aware of. I would 155 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: imagine you're following it since it's happening in your home state. 156 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,119 Speaker 1: Many interested here in the country are following it because 157 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: it really speaks to the illegal immigration crisis in this country. 158 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: But it strikes me that the mainstream media is turning 159 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: somewhat of a deaf ear to this. What do you 160 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: make of all of that? 161 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 5: Well, it's not just in my home state. It's my 162 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 5: hometown of Athens, all right. This is a very personal 163 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 5: issue to me. The mainstream media has disregarded their main responsibility, 164 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 5: and that is to report on the truth here. They 165 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 5: have been covering up on this case. They do not 166 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 5: want the Lake and Riley's name to be heard across 167 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 5: our country. But we want that to happen because the 168 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 5: American people deserve justice, the family deserves justice. And I'll 169 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 5: tell you, we never want to ever see this happen again, 170 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 5: but we have. 171 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:49,479 Speaker 2: You know, Mimi. 172 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 5: Rodriguez Ramirez in my district in Habersham County was murdered 173 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 5: just a few weeks ago, another American citizen murdered by 174 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 5: an illegal alien. This has to stop, and President Trump 175 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 5: will stop it will prevent other families from going through 176 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 5: this terrible ordeal by deporting every solitary criminal illegal alien. 177 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 3: Congressman, there's some confusion out there about the one of 178 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 3: the appointments with Linda McMahon, who I think is a 179 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 3: great appointment for the Department of Education. But President Trump 180 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 3: has said he wants to eliminate the Department of Education. 181 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 3: So with Linda McMahon there, and actually my husband even 182 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: had a conversation with her. He was telling me just 183 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 3: this week where he said, so, wait, would you then 184 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 3: be appointed to eliminate the department that you're appointed to? 185 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 3: And she kind of giggled pretty much, that's the situation. 186 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 3: But what will it take to eliminate some of these departments? 187 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 3: Is there a congressional portion of this? Explain to us 188 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 3: what that's going to take, because I know it's not 189 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 3: as easy as just an executive order. 190 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 5: Well, President Trump wants to follow the Constitution, and the 191 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 5: Department of Education is not a constitutional department. The federal 192 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 5: government has no authority when it comes to to education. 193 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 5: If you look into Article one, you will not see 194 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 5: the word education there at all. So that is reserved. 195 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 5: That is an authority reserved unto the states and to 196 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 5: the people. So you know, President Trump is one hundred 197 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 5: percent correct. The Department of Education needs to be gone. 198 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 5: It needs to be eliminated. That is not a federal responsibility. 199 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 5: If we're going to stay within the confines of the Constitution, 200 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 5: which you know we swore an oath to do, then 201 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 5: we need to eliminate those agencies within the federal government 202 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 5: that that authority truly resides with the states and not 203 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,479 Speaker 5: with the federal government. So I'm all in in eliminating 204 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 5: the department of the federal Department of Education. 205 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 3: What will that take? 206 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 5: What will it take? Yeah, a lot of courage and 207 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 5: a lot of will by members of Congress to actually 208 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 5: do the right thing and to follow the Constitution, which 209 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 5: you know has been a problem over the last number 210 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 5: of decades, and it just it needs to happen. We 211 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 5: need to figure out the way to do it and 212 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 5: do it properly, to downsize it, bring it down until 213 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 5: it's no long longer there, and we need to send 214 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 5: that money then to the States. 215 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: All right, Congressman, we appreciate it, Thank you. 216 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 5: Thank you, Thanks congress appreciate being on y'all. 217 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 3: Good to have you all right. Coming up, we're going 218 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 3: to check out the hottest headlines from the RAV newsroom 219 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 3: with Tea Bates, and later we have a lot more 220 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 3: to cover on the illegal migrant issue. Illegal immigrant issue, 221 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,239 Speaker 3: including a threat assessment of just how many violent criminals 222 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 3: have been let into the country by the Biden Harris team. 223 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 3: Stay with us,
