WEBVTT - When To Stand Up!

0:00:00.000 --> 0:00:03.120
<v Speaker 1>All right, News, roundup, Information Overload Hour. Here's our toll

0:00:03.160 --> 0:00:05.160
<v Speaker 1>free telephone number. It's eight hundred and ninety four to

0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:07.440
<v Speaker 1>one sean if you want to be a part of

0:00:07.480 --> 0:00:08.080
<v Speaker 1>the program.

0:00:08.400 --> 0:00:10.400
<v Speaker 2>So it was very interesting to watch.

0:00:10.520 --> 0:00:12.879
<v Speaker 1>There was a feature in the New York Post about

0:00:12.960 --> 0:00:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Nancy Pelosi and over the course of her very long

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:21.599
<v Speaker 1>career in Congress, had a whopping return of just shy

0:00:21.680 --> 0:00:27.320
<v Speaker 1>of seventeen thousand percent, outperforming pretty much, you know, every

0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 1>major market, every private equity firm, every investment firm in

0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:34.720
<v Speaker 1>the entire country, by a long shot, went from a

0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:37.519
<v Speaker 1>net worth of three million dollars to two hundred and

0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:40.040
<v Speaker 1>eighty million dollars. We did call over to her office

0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:42.839
<v Speaker 1>and the answer was, well, that would be her husband

0:00:42.840 --> 0:00:46.720
<v Speaker 1>that does the investing. A lot of people question, well,

0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:52.559
<v Speaker 1>is it possible that maybe the husband had information that

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:56.000
<v Speaker 1>other Americans may not have. People are very suspicious. There

0:00:56.040 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 1>are a lot of suspicious people in this world, and

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 1>frankly for good reason, especially when you're looking at money

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:05.600
<v Speaker 1>and you're looking at a massive return such as she has.

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, and here's what got so interesting to me is,

0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, she doesn't personally own any stocks. Let's start there,

0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>but it's her husband. A seventeen thousand return net worth

0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>as a family three million grows to two hundred and

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>eighty million. Wow, for being in a public service role.

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 1>And she can say, Okay, my husband did all this,

0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:30.839
<v Speaker 1>My husband did all this. You know there are there's

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:35.119
<v Speaker 1>an entire group of people because every elected official has

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:40.880
<v Speaker 1>to publicly file financial information and disclose what stocks they own,

0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:44.559
<v Speaker 1>what stocks they've invested in. And let's put it this way,

0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:49.680
<v Speaker 1>there's a whole group of people and a whole application

0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 1>you can download where you can follow Nancy Pelosi's investments

0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 1>and make the investments yourself. And apparently, you know it's

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>it's been an amazing bed Over the last year. The

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 1>portfolio went up of whopping thirty two point five percent,

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>outperforming traditional investment strategies. Autopilot's CEO Chris Josephs, in an interview,

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:18.200
<v Speaker 1>said Pelosi's newly announced retirement is bittersweet. No other politician

0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:23.440
<v Speaker 1>meant so much to this community of stock watching finance junkies.

0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 1>And as good as Pelosi's been for business, he wants

0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 1>a ban on politicians trading stock. He created the tracker

0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 1>as a marketing tactic, but also to call attention to

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.080
<v Speaker 1>the issue. He said, we thought, we know, what better

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:41.040
<v Speaker 1>way to call out the hypocrisy than to literally trade

0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:44.799
<v Speaker 1>alongside them. And anyway, the Pelosi tracker got set up.

0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 1>The Ethics and Government Act requires members of Congress to

0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:52.519
<v Speaker 1>disclose their own and their spouse's sales and purchases of stock.

0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, an almost seventeen thousand percent return, and that

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:01.639
<v Speaker 1>increase in net worth is pretty staggered. Congressman Chip Rowley,

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>who's now a candidate for Attorney General in Texas, is

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:09.440
<v Speaker 1>pushing for the rule of law in Congress again by

0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 1>removing the right to trade individual stocks to spending our

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:17.639
<v Speaker 1>tax dollars on illegal immigrants and a bunch of other things.

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:21.240
<v Speaker 1>I'd say that's a pretty good return on her investments.

0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:23.680
<v Speaker 1>I'd say she's one of her husband's one of the

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:25.120
<v Speaker 1>best investors I've ever heard of.

0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:26.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it makes Warren Buffett blush.

0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:30.360
<v Speaker 3>I would assume, Yeah, it's pretty it's pretty extraordinary. Sean.

0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 3>Great to be on the show, and this is something

0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.160
<v Speaker 3>we've been observing a long time. And you know, as

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.840
<v Speaker 3>all these jokes, I mean, I joked when Nancy Pelosi

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:39.320
<v Speaker 3>announced her retirement, like how on Earth are people going

0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 3>to know how to invest their stocks because you know,

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.440
<v Speaker 3>following her was better than watching CNBC or Fox Business

0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:47.480
<v Speaker 3>or anything else. And look, we can joke about it,

0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 3>but it really does reduce or eliminate trust in Congress

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 3>for the American people. And a lot of people use

0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.440
<v Speaker 3>the term insider trading, and yeah, that's a problem, and

0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:00.680
<v Speaker 3>it's certainly something that is driving our desire to pass

0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:03.360
<v Speaker 3>legislation to fix it. But the real thing is is

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 3>that it calls into question what your votes are. It

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:10.760
<v Speaker 3>calls into question when you're making decisions on the Flooring Committee.

0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.880
<v Speaker 3>Let's say you've got a big position in Google and

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.240
<v Speaker 3>you're having a big debate and the Judiciary Committee about

0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:18.560
<v Speaker 3>anti trust or breaking them up. Or you own a

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:21.800
<v Speaker 3>lot of Palenteer or some big defense stock and you're

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 3>voting in defense or in appropriations about defense spending. I

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 3>don't think there should be conflicts of interest that are

0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:31.760
<v Speaker 3>that nakedly obvious. And this isn't that hard. There's three

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.279
<v Speaker 3>hundred and thirty million Americans. There's four hundred and thirty

0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 3>five of us in Congress, five hundred and thirty five.

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:39.360
<v Speaker 3>When you have the Senate, I think you can pause

0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 3>for a little bit. Come be a public servant. If

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.440
<v Speaker 3>you want to betray, go going back home. So we

0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 3>introduced legislation in twenty twenty on a bipartisan basis to

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 3>address this. I'm thankful that now five years later, we've

0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 3>gotten a bigger coalition. We introduced a version that is

0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:58.000
<v Speaker 3>a bigger bipartisan block with ninety co sponsors. We had

0:04:58.040 --> 0:05:00.600
<v Speaker 3>a hearing on it yesterday, which is great. But now

0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.720
<v Speaker 3>we need Republican leadership to drive this train forward and

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.239
<v Speaker 3>deliver a result. We got to stop this day training

0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 3>among members of Congress so we can restore trust.

0:05:08.560 --> 0:05:12.159
<v Speaker 1>Now you are also you've announced the Pause Act, which

0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:16.440
<v Speaker 1>would freeze all immigration into the US until you reform

0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:22.440
<v Speaker 1>chain migration and H one B visas, eliminate birthright citizenship.

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:26.280
<v Speaker 1>And how is that going in Congress?

0:05:26.400 --> 0:05:29.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, we had an initial fantastic response, a lot of

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:31.159
<v Speaker 3>people in my colleagues that are jumping in board and

0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:34.120
<v Speaker 3>could sponsoring it, a great response across the country. You know,

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:35.720
<v Speaker 3>I announced it last week that we were going to

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:37.839
<v Speaker 3>do it. We couldn't get it drafted because the shutdown

0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:41.080
<v Speaker 3>with the lawyers or Legislative Council. But we got it

0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.719
<v Speaker 3>done this week we introduced it, and look, I don't

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:46.160
<v Speaker 3>mean to say that it can't be tweaked or amended,

0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:49.480
<v Speaker 3>but the concept I think is very popular. Like let's pause,

0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:52.479
<v Speaker 3>let's push pause. We have fifty one million foreign born

0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:56.000
<v Speaker 3>people in this country. That's almost sixteen percent of the population.

0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.479
<v Speaker 3>That's the highest percentage we've ever had. And we got

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 3>to look at what happening to our country. We've got

0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:04.960
<v Speaker 3>American workers who need jobs. We've got forces that are

0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.440
<v Speaker 3>driving up the price of goods. We've got people who

0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:09.640
<v Speaker 3>are coming here who want to change our laws, people

0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:12.240
<v Speaker 3>who want to embrace your re alon undermine our constitution.

0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:15.440
<v Speaker 3>We've got people here who are dangerous. We need to pause,

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:18.480
<v Speaker 3>We need to stop. The President is doing an extraordinary

0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:20.360
<v Speaker 3>job with the leadership of Tom Home and the Steven

0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:23.359
<v Speaker 3>Miller and Secretary Nome freezing the flow at the border.

0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:25.919
<v Speaker 3>They've done a great job with that. Ice is removing

0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:28.719
<v Speaker 3>a lot of bad actors. Now, let's revamp our legal

0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 3>immigration system that has been abused to create massive pockets

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.920
<v Speaker 3>of Somalies and people who are coming here in advancing

0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:36.680
<v Speaker 3>shre al and undermining our country. And you and I

0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:39.160
<v Speaker 3>have talked about that issue before, and I think we

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:42.520
<v Speaker 3>need to freeze immigration and then let's fix it right now.

0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:45.160
<v Speaker 3>By the way, it still allows tours visas. We can

0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:47.039
<v Speaker 3>have a conversation about what to do with some of

0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:50.120
<v Speaker 3>these things, but let's reform or eliminate or change h one.

0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:54.279
<v Speaker 3>V's end diversity, MiG visas and chain migration. Let's fix

0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:57.120
<v Speaker 3>things like birthright, citizenship and the magnets that cause people

0:06:57.120 --> 0:06:59.760
<v Speaker 3>to come here. Then we can have insane conversation about

0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:02.440
<v Speaker 3>the guest workers and other stuff. But Lord knows we

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:04.640
<v Speaker 3>can afford a freeze. You know, back when we had

0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:07.240
<v Speaker 3>the big boom in the early nineteen hundreds of immigration,

0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:10.120
<v Speaker 3>in nineteen twenty or so, we kind of stopped and

0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:12.680
<v Speaker 3>we caught our breath and for about thirty or forty

0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:14.680
<v Speaker 3>years we kind of regroups. We need to make sure

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.800
<v Speaker 3>people are assimilating, buying into the American dream rather than

0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.680
<v Speaker 3>changing it. The melting pot means that you buy into America,

0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 3>you don't come here to change it.

0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 1>So last night on TV I had Texas Governor Greg Gabbott.

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:28.640
<v Speaker 1>I know you're friends with them, and he has taken

0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:31.680
<v Speaker 1>a stand against the group care in the Muslim Brotherhood.

0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:36.680
<v Speaker 1>He signed a proclamation declaring them both foreign terrorist organizations

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:40.239
<v Speaker 1>in Texas, citing what he called actions taken to support

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:44.880
<v Speaker 1>terrorism around the world, and you know, care pushback. They

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>put their Texas chapters saying that they are proud of

0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:50.520
<v Speaker 1>their record of standing up for free speech and religious

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 1>freedom and justice for all and not going to be

0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:56.960
<v Speaker 1>intimidated by smear campaigns launched by quote the Israel First

0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:00.520
<v Speaker 1>politicians like Greg Abbott. No, I know Greg Abbott. He's

0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>a Texas First governor period and a sentence now just

0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:06.880
<v Speaker 1>for the record. The same group that was identified as

0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:10.360
<v Speaker 1>an unindicted co conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism

0:08:10.440 --> 0:08:16.040
<v Speaker 1>financial financial trial, their national executive director following the horrific

0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:19.560
<v Speaker 1>terror attacks on October seven, said, the people of Gaza

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:23.000
<v Speaker 1>only decided to break the siege the walls of the

0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:27.080
<v Speaker 1>concentration camp on October seventh, And yes, I was happy

0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:31.640
<v Speaker 1>to see people breaking the siege. Then the government, then

0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:34.559
<v Speaker 1>the governor before we had him on last night, said

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:38.160
<v Speaker 1>he's investigating sharia courts in Texas.

0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:40.719
<v Speaker 2>There's sharia courts in Texas well.

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.280
<v Speaker 3>It's a great question. The governor made that point, I think,

0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 3>and said it to you. I think that he knows

0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:48.960
<v Speaker 3>that they're in fact Sharia courts. He sent a letter

0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 3>in which he sent it to the DA's in tom

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:55.319
<v Speaker 3>County in Dallas and the sheriff and said, look, you guys,

0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 3>go find these courts that are operating in direct conflict

0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:00.960
<v Speaker 3>with our laws, and then let's go shut them down

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.280
<v Speaker 3>and issuing is executive. That executive order with respect to

0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:07.840
<v Speaker 3>CARE and the Muslim Brotherhood is really important because it

0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:12.000
<v Speaker 3>unlocks tools that the legislature provided to ban the purchases

0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:15.319
<v Speaker 3>of real estate, dirt, and other assets in Texas by

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:18.840
<v Speaker 3>people that are declared to be affiliated with terrorist organizations.

0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:22.600
<v Speaker 3>And look, Care is very obviously affiliated with terrorist organizations.

0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:24.839
<v Speaker 3>They've got leadership that were a part of the Holy

0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:27.439
<v Speaker 3>Land Foundation case that you'll remember Sean from twenty five

0:09:27.520 --> 0:09:29.840
<v Speaker 3>years ago, all the way back in the Bush administration.

0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:33.160
<v Speaker 3>DOJ went after them and unlocked the extent to which

0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 3>they were tied to terrorists. Some of their folks they

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:39.040
<v Speaker 3>have an unindicted co conspirator that's at the top leadership

0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:42.880
<v Speaker 3>in Care. Care was extolling the October seventh attacks on Israel.

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:45.200
<v Speaker 3>I can go down a laundry list of other things.

0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:47.600
<v Speaker 3>Recent reporting two days ago in the New York Post

0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:50.080
<v Speaker 3>of Care's affiliation with these groups that have been on

0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:53.240
<v Speaker 3>college campuses that were you know, riling up all the protests,

0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:57.360
<v Speaker 3>all associated with terrorist groups. And look, we've got to

0:09:57.520 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 3>fight this stuff. And God blessed Governor Rabbit for doing that.

0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:03.480
<v Speaker 3>We need to step on the gas. Not just Epic City,

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:07.200
<v Speaker 3>not just these things that grab the headlines, but we

0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:09.720
<v Speaker 3>need to actually have a concerted effort to stop the

0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:12.600
<v Speaker 3>advancement of sharia law. And the governor took a great

0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:13.400
<v Speaker 3>step in that direction.

0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:16.280
<v Speaker 1>You're running for this is your last term in Congress.

0:10:17.120 --> 0:10:20.280
<v Speaker 1>My understanding is a friend of mine is leading the

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:23.200
<v Speaker 1>way to replace you in your district. Is the former

0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 1>first baseman although these Texas you know, his Texas roots

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:31.560
<v Speaker 1>are run deep, including playing for Texas and then in MLB.

0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 1>And that's Mark Tsherah, who I know is a Maga Conservative.

0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Have you spoken to him? And how are you looking

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:39.480
<v Speaker 1>in your race?

0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:42.040
<v Speaker 3>Well, I appreciate the question. Yeah, I know Mark. You know,

0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:44.920
<v Speaker 3>we've known each other a long time. Our kids go

0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:48.000
<v Speaker 3>to the same school. And look, my race, I'm very

0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:51.120
<v Speaker 3>excited about where we stand. We're pulling around forty points.

0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:53.640
<v Speaker 3>My nearest competitors are usually in the single digits or

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:57.720
<v Speaker 3>around ten points. We've got a big enthusiasm raising good money.

0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:02.240
<v Speaker 3>The reaction has been fantastic. We're having good conversations, of course,

0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:05.720
<v Speaker 3>and where we want to take the AG's office to

0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:08.800
<v Speaker 3>extend what Governor Abbot did as AG, what Ken Paxson

0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:10.959
<v Speaker 3>has done as Attorney General, and now put it you

0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:13.400
<v Speaker 3>really step on the gas, you know, go after these

0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:16.760
<v Speaker 3>issues with respect to the Sharia law adherents and what's

0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:19.360
<v Speaker 3>happening with those issues. Really step on the gas with

0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:22.560
<v Speaker 3>respect to our border. Never again be subjected to a Biden,

0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:26.319
<v Speaker 3>my orcus undermining of our laws and our security in Texas.

0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:29.720
<v Speaker 3>Stop this release of criminals on our streets. Going after

0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:33.800
<v Speaker 3>this network, this vast networks of source funded folks. Election integrity,

0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:36.240
<v Speaker 3>the Stave Acts which I let on in Congress. We

0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.480
<v Speaker 3>got to make sure we secure our elections. These are

0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.280
<v Speaker 3>all reasons why, look, Sean, I could stay in Congress

0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 3>and keep fighting here. And we've done a lot of

0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:45.400
<v Speaker 3>great work. Remember you and I, we've worked together and

0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:48.280
<v Speaker 3>tried to navigate through the speakers debates and whether it's

0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:52.760
<v Speaker 3>Kevin and the now Speaker Johnson and my philosophy has

0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:55.440
<v Speaker 3>always been to deliver right, fight hard, get the most

0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:57.760
<v Speaker 3>conservative outcome, and deliver results. And we've done it on

0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:00.920
<v Speaker 3>so many levels. Proud of what we've been able to pass.

0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:03.560
<v Speaker 3>But now we need to save Texas. Sean, if we

0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:07.440
<v Speaker 3>lose Texas, there is no America and Texas under assault.

0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:09.800
<v Speaker 3>So I'm proud to go back and run for Attorney General.

0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:12.320
<v Speaker 3>But I got fourteen more months here to keep fighting,

0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:14.720
<v Speaker 3>and so I'm staying. And you know, the joke number

0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:17.640
<v Speaker 3>in high school was always senioritis. Oh you're gone. I

0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:20.360
<v Speaker 3>don't know. I'm a United States Congressman for the twenty

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:22.680
<v Speaker 3>first district. I'm going to keep fighting and keep doing

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:23.600
<v Speaker 3>my job here as well.

0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:27.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I think that's that's noble, and I wish more

0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:30.920
<v Speaker 1>people had the same attitude. I do know it's gonna

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:37.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, winning Texas is critical. It's actually astounding the

0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:39.800
<v Speaker 1>amount of moneies that have been thrown by the way.

0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.360
<v Speaker 1>I am endorsing Mark to schri I don't know if

0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:45.200
<v Speaker 1>you're going to endorse on a primary, but I'm endorsing him.

0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.720
<v Speaker 2>I've known him forever. He is the real deal conservative.

0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:50.839
<v Speaker 1>And don't I don't say that lightly about a lot

0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:53.360
<v Speaker 1>of people you know, people are asking me, now, who

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:54.920
<v Speaker 1>do you think is going to replace Trump? Well, first

0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.440
<v Speaker 1>of all, nobody's going to replace Trump. He's you know,

0:12:57.760 --> 0:13:02.320
<v Speaker 1>one unique historical figure. But I'm going to do what

0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:04.719
<v Speaker 1>I did when I first endorsed Trump. I'm I'm going

0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.720
<v Speaker 1>to vet all these candidates and I'm going to talk

0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:11.640
<v Speaker 1>to them, and I'm going to interview them, and I'll

0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:13.760
<v Speaker 1>make my own decision and I'll share it with my

0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:16.040
<v Speaker 1>audience like I did the last time. And in the

0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:18.800
<v Speaker 1>last time, like I don't know, if you remember, conservatives

0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.120
<v Speaker 1>have beaten the hell out of me if it's supporting Trump.

0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:25.120
<v Speaker 1>They crucified me on the air. Ben Shapiro, Glenn Beck

0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:25.560
<v Speaker 1>and others.

0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:28.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, it's Sean. You've always been a good proponent of

0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 3>seeking the truth and standing up on your beliefs. And

0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:33.480
<v Speaker 3>you know what, I've done the same thing, and like

0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:35.680
<v Speaker 3>the ninety nine percent of the time their line, And

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:38.080
<v Speaker 3>I remember how great you were and respectful. You remember

0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:40.679
<v Speaker 3>when when I was We're out there on the campaign trail.

0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:42.560
<v Speaker 3>And you know, Governor de Santis a long time friend

0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:44.840
<v Speaker 3>of mine, Byron Donalds, he's one of my good friends.

0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:47.160
<v Speaker 3>I've endorsed him and he's endorsed me. Byron and I

0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:51.760
<v Speaker 3>were sitting on your set, remember during the Republican Convention,

0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:54.680
<v Speaker 3>and we had a great dialogue and discussion about how

0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 3>great the work is that the governor was doing in Florida,

0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.599
<v Speaker 3>how great the president is, and you know, look, the

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:03.360
<v Speaker 3>president just crush the field. Was our nominee, we crushed

0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:06.199
<v Speaker 3>it last year, and now he's crushing it as president.

0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:09.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm honored to work alongside him, big fan, working with

0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:11.440
<v Speaker 3>his team. Some of my best friends in the administration,

0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:15.079
<v Speaker 3>people like Russ Vote, the head of omb Tom Hoeman

0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.360
<v Speaker 3>is a dear friend who's obviously kicking butt on the border.

0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.520
<v Speaker 3>This president is doing great things. But Congress, we got

0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:22.920
<v Speaker 3>to deliver. We've got another year. We've got to deliver,

0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:26.040
<v Speaker 3>win the midterms, and then two more years of deliver

0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:29.160
<v Speaker 3>set up a twenty eight election. We need twelve years.

0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:31.200
<v Speaker 3>We got to clean up this mess, and we've got

0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:33.320
<v Speaker 3>to step on the gas and get in behind the

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.840
<v Speaker 3>president to deliver. And I think if we do that,

0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:37.600
<v Speaker 3>we can win, and we can create a whole new

0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:40.320
<v Speaker 3>generation of Conservatives. In the spirit of Charlie Kirk and

0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:42.080
<v Speaker 3>everything that he gave, and he gave his life for

0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:45.720
<v Speaker 3>in talking about his faith, talking about freedom, let's inspire

0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:47.960
<v Speaker 3>a new generation. I think the president's setting the fields

0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:48.160
<v Speaker 3>with that.

0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Well said, and I support your race for Attorney general. Also,

0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:55.720
<v Speaker 1>so you know, our favorite congress woman's back in the news, Linda,

0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 1>did you notice Kasmin Krockett is.

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:02.960
<v Speaker 4>Back in My favorite n She is definitely not He's no.

0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:04.040
<v Speaker 2>He's definitely our favorite.

0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:07.880
<v Speaker 4>Come on, every time I speaks no, my favorite is Pelosi.

0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:08.800
<v Speaker 4>I never get enough.

0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:13.440
<v Speaker 1>She's got herself a little bit of a Biden cognitive

0:15:13.440 --> 0:15:14.280
<v Speaker 1>problem right now.

0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:18.360
<v Speaker 1>And she's retiring, So I'm not gonna I'm not gonna

0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.840
<v Speaker 1>go too deep in the paint on that one. So

0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Jasmine listed a friend of the program, Lee Zelden, is

0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:30.560
<v Speaker 1>now the EPAUH, and claim that he received donations from

0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Jeffrey Epstein. He said it on the House floor. Here's

0:15:34.640 --> 0:15:35.720
<v Speaker 1>what she said.

0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:40.000
<v Speaker 5>Folks who also took money from somebody named Jeffrey Epstein.

0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:43.840
<v Speaker 5>As I had my team dig in very quickly, Mitt Romney,

0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:52.640
<v Speaker 5>the NRCC, Lee Zelden, George bush Win, Red McCain, Palin,

0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:56.840
<v Speaker 5>Rick Lazio. I just want to be clear, if this

0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:58.920
<v Speaker 5>is the standard that we're gonna make, just no, we're

0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:02.080
<v Speaker 5>gonna expose it all. And just know that the FC filings,

0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:04.320
<v Speaker 5>they are available for everybody to review.

0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Whoopsie Daisy the only one that actually was soliciting money

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:12.680
<v Speaker 1>that we know for sure based on the document dump.

0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:15.680
<v Speaker 1>We know that a lot of Democrats are now implicated.

0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Bill Clinton for one, Laurence Summers for another one. We

0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:24.000
<v Speaker 1>know that Hakeem Jeffries the leader in the House and

0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:28.240
<v Speaker 1>name only, he's not the real leader. And yeah, then

0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:33.200
<v Speaker 1>Jasmine got caught because you see, Lee Zelden never received

0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:37.480
<v Speaker 1>solicited or tried to get any money from Jeffrey Ebstein.

0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:41.080
<v Speaker 1>And then the facts come out and Jasmine had to

0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:44.360
<v Speaker 1>admit that she was wrong. But she's not trying to

0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:45.960
<v Speaker 1>do it purposefully.

0:16:45.880 --> 0:16:48.240
<v Speaker 6>Mentioned to lee Zelden there he's now a cabinet secretary.

0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:51.040
<v Speaker 6>He responded and said it was actually doctor Jeffrey Epstein,

0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:53.200
<v Speaker 6>who's a doctor that doesn't have any relation to the

0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:56.560
<v Speaker 6>convicted sex chracker. Unfortunate for that doctor, but that is

0:16:56.600 --> 0:16:59.040
<v Speaker 6>who do it into a prior campaign of his. Do

0:16:59.120 --> 0:17:00.960
<v Speaker 6>you want to correct the record on the people.

0:17:01.040 --> 0:17:03.320
<v Speaker 5>And I never said that it was that Jeffrey Epstein,

0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:05.240
<v Speaker 5>just so that people understand when you make a donation,

0:17:05.320 --> 0:17:07.960
<v Speaker 5>your picture is not there. And because they decided to

0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:10.919
<v Speaker 5>spring this on us in real time, I wanted the

0:17:10.960 --> 0:17:13.680
<v Speaker 5>Republicans to think about what could potentially happen because I

0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:16.360
<v Speaker 5>knew that they didn't even try to go through the FEC.

0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:18.760
<v Speaker 5>So my team what they did is they googled, And

0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:22.359
<v Speaker 5>that is specifically why I said a Jeffrey Epstein. Unlike Republicans,

0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:24.919
<v Speaker 5>I at least don't go out and just tell lies

0:17:25.520 --> 0:17:27.760
<v Speaker 5>because it was not the same one. That's fine. But

0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:30.160
<v Speaker 5>when Lee Zelden had something to say, all he had

0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:33.200
<v Speaker 5>to say was it was a different Jeffrey Jeffrey Epstein.

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.919
<v Speaker 5>He admitted that he did receive donations from a Jeffrey Epstein,

0:17:36.960 --> 0:17:39.520
<v Speaker 5>So at least I wasn't trying to mislead people. Now,

0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:41.760
<v Speaker 5>have I dug in to find out who this doctor is?

0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:44.359
<v Speaker 5>I have not, So I will trust and take what

0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:47.880
<v Speaker 5>he says is that it wasn't that Jeffrey Epstein. But

0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:51.840
<v Speaker 5>I was not attempting to mislead anybody. I literally had

0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:55.240
<v Speaker 5>maybe twenty minutes before I had to do that debate.

0:17:55.359 --> 0:17:57.160
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, but people might see that day. Well, you're trying

0:17:57.160 --> 0:17:59.439
<v Speaker 6>to make it sound like he took money from I

0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 6>did not know registered sex offender.

0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:02.560
<v Speaker 5>No, but I literally did not know.

0:18:02.840 --> 0:18:06.560
<v Speaker 1>That's an accident, right, we should It's it's like Sandy Burglar,

0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:09.399
<v Speaker 1>the burglar you know when remember he went into the

0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:12.280
<v Speaker 1>National Archives for Bill Clinton after nine to eleven, and

0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:13.160
<v Speaker 1>you know.

0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:14.879
<v Speaker 2>It was he was being sloppy.

0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:17.439
<v Speaker 1>He was just being sloppy, Linda when he put, you know,

0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:20.960
<v Speaker 1>all of those secret documents in his pants and his socks.

0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:25.280
<v Speaker 2>This is a case of sloppiness, I'm sure careless.

0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Sloppy sloppy about it.

0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:32.639
<v Speaker 4>Can you imagine if that same sort of you know,

0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:37.520
<v Speaker 4>leeway was given to the right. It's mind blowing to me.

0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:42.200
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, the guy's got files in his underwear. Like, guys,

0:18:42.240 --> 0:18:43.960
<v Speaker 4>this is not hard. It's really not.

0:18:44.440 --> 0:18:46.840
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I would imagine if you're being sloppy,

0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sloppy. Everybody sloppy, you know, is spy when I'm

0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:56.760
<v Speaker 1>not either. I hate I hate messes. But is it

0:18:56.840 --> 0:19:01.960
<v Speaker 1>really sloppiness when you take archives that you illegally that's

0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:04.680
<v Speaker 1>illegal to take out of the National Archives and you

0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:07.639
<v Speaker 1>shove it down your crotch? How do you describe that

0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:10.000
<v Speaker 1>as sloppy exactly? And they got away with it.

0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:12.160
<v Speaker 4>That's a problem. But see the reason they get away

0:19:12.200 --> 0:19:14.080
<v Speaker 4>with it is because they have all their buddies and

0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:17.119
<v Speaker 4>cronies in the positions of power that they need in

0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:18.439
<v Speaker 4>order to say that's all good.

0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:19.080
<v Speaker 2>He didn't me either.

0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump was sloppy like that, and he was shoving

0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:24.719
<v Speaker 1>documents down about it. They would have been you know,

0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.040
<v Speaker 1>they would have pants.

0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:30.320
<v Speaker 4>He doesn't need to do anything, just like Leez Elden

0:19:30.359 --> 0:19:32.960
<v Speaker 4>didn't do anything, and she's burying him. And the problem

0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:34.360
<v Speaker 4>is is where do you go to get your good

0:19:34.440 --> 0:19:36.800
<v Speaker 4>name back? I mean, the guy who donated to Leez

0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:39.040
<v Speaker 4>Elden had been dead.

0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:40.080
<v Speaker 2>He was dead.

0:19:41.040 --> 0:19:44.760
<v Speaker 1>Ray Donovan was investigated in the Reagan years for years

0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:48.400
<v Speaker 1>and years and then he was exonerated, and he comes out,

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:50.840
<v Speaker 1>Where do I now go to get my good name back?

0:19:51.040 --> 0:19:53.480
<v Speaker 1>And the answer to that question is you don't get

0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:58.200
<v Speaker 1>it back. The smears, the slander, the besmirchmant the attacks.

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:01.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, it's facts were busy, it's great, it's gross.

0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:04.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, who wants to be in politics. Nobody, nobody's

0:20:05.000 --> 0:20:07.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why people do it. I'm glad some do.

0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Joy in my free state of Florida. Hey, Joy.

0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:14.240
<v Speaker 7>How are you hi, Sean. It is our free state

0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:14.800
<v Speaker 7>of Florida.

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Love our free state of Florida.

0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Especially love it at this time of year when all

0:20:19.840 --> 0:20:22.160
<v Speaker 1>my friends are calling me and writing me and whining

0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:24.920
<v Speaker 1>and moaning and bitching and complaining about the weather where

0:20:24.960 --> 0:20:25.520
<v Speaker 1>they live.

0:20:25.920 --> 0:20:27.440
<v Speaker 7>And their taxes where they live.

0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, I mean they're complaining about that. I mean

0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:38.160
<v Speaker 1>what's so amazing is how quickly that Zorn Marxist Kami Mamnani.

0:20:38.160 --> 0:20:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Now apparently there's going to be some meeting or meet

0:20:40.520 --> 0:20:42.600
<v Speaker 1>up with President Trump at the White House tomorrow. That

0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:45.439
<v Speaker 1>ought to be interesting. I almost feel like flying in

0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:48.199
<v Speaker 1>for it just to watch it. In real life, that

0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:54.359
<v Speaker 1>would be quite entertaining. But uh, it's if he thinks,

0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he was out there today talking about that.

0:20:57.320 --> 0:20:59.879
<v Speaker 1>If Donald Trump thinks that he's going to get the

0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:04.120
<v Speaker 1>operation for Ice officials like you did under Eric Adams,

0:21:04.200 --> 0:21:08.359
<v Speaker 1>he is mistaken. Listen, Zoran, you take on Donald Trump

0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:10.520
<v Speaker 1>all you want, because it ain't gonna end well for

0:21:10.600 --> 0:21:12.720
<v Speaker 1>you and is not going to end well for New York.

0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:16.800
<v Speaker 1>By the way, real estate prices in the last five

0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:20.880
<v Speaker 1>days outside the City of New York in the Five

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:25.560
<v Speaker 1>boroughs is up a wopping twenty five percent. Talking to

0:21:25.600 --> 0:21:28.400
<v Speaker 1>my friends down in Florida in the real estate industry,

0:21:28.800 --> 0:21:33.560
<v Speaker 1>they said activity is skyrocketing. It's called the Mamdani effect.

0:21:33.600 --> 0:21:34.880
<v Speaker 1>It's taking place now.

0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:37.280
<v Speaker 7>Just as long as they don't bring their New York

0:21:37.320 --> 0:21:38.239
<v Speaker 7>politics with him.

0:21:38.840 --> 0:21:42.359
<v Speaker 1>Well, that should be a requirement. We ought to have

0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:45.480
<v Speaker 1>a political litmus test. You welcome to Florida, But if

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:48.119
<v Speaker 1>you're one of these lunatic liberals that ruined your state,

0:21:48.160 --> 0:21:50.600
<v Speaker 1>don't bring you stupid policies with you. I think that's fair.

0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:55.000
<v Speaker 1>That's a fair you know, that's a fair entrance requirement

0:21:55.040 --> 0:22:00.320
<v Speaker 1>to me. Anyway, Joy, we appreciate you. Thank you in

0:22:00.320 --> 0:22:01.000
<v Speaker 1>North Carolina.

0:22:01.080 --> 0:22:01.439
<v Speaker 2>What's up?

0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:04.280
<v Speaker 7>Mark, My honor and pleasure to be with you today, Sean.

0:22:04.520 --> 0:22:07.320
<v Speaker 7>The reason I'm calling is there's been a lot of

0:22:07.359 --> 0:22:11.880
<v Speaker 7>noise accusing President Trump of acting illegally with his hits

0:22:11.920 --> 0:22:14.960
<v Speaker 7>on the Venezuela and Narco votes. And I have something

0:22:15.000 --> 0:22:17.760
<v Speaker 7>of the legal background the Columbia law at eighty one.

0:22:17.960 --> 0:22:21.960
<v Speaker 7>My constitutional law professor was Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I was

0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 7>on the board of uh at the Law School for

0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:26.959
<v Speaker 7>the Society of Internet.

0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:30.719
<v Speaker 1>I interrupted, do you know what Clarence Thomas once told me.

0:22:31.520 --> 0:22:35.119
<v Speaker 1>And when Ruth Bader Ginsburg's best friend, you know who

0:22:35.280 --> 0:22:35.880
<v Speaker 1>was on the court.

0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:38.240
<v Speaker 2>It was anthonin Scalia, you.

0:22:38.160 --> 0:22:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Know, and Clarence Thomas said, she's lovely, she's a one

0:22:41.480 --> 0:22:42.640
<v Speaker 1>of a very nice women.

0:22:42.840 --> 0:22:45.000
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and she was approved with a vote of ninety

0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:48.360
<v Speaker 7>three senators, by the way, if I remember correctly, And

0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:51.000
<v Speaker 7>I was able to disagree with her to her face

0:22:51.080 --> 0:22:54.560
<v Speaker 7>over was let's use national legal cities and equal rights

0:22:54.560 --> 0:22:58.240
<v Speaker 7>of renmen. And she graded me fairly. And back when

0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:01.040
<v Speaker 7>the Democrats were talking about packing the court, she said, no,

0:23:01.160 --> 0:23:03.040
<v Speaker 7>that's not a good idea. So you know there was

0:23:03.080 --> 0:23:08.120
<v Speaker 7>intellectual integrity there and respect across different points of view. Absolutely.

0:23:08.320 --> 0:23:11.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm glad, you know, God rest us all. I mean,

0:23:11.359 --> 0:23:14.919
<v Speaker 1>we can disagree, and you can still have disagreements. By

0:23:14.960 --> 0:23:16.920
<v Speaker 1>the way, let me ask you this question, babe, because

0:23:16.920 --> 0:23:18.359
<v Speaker 1>you brought this up, and then I'll let you make

0:23:18.400 --> 0:23:22.520
<v Speaker 1>your point. What should I spend time on the program

0:23:22.560 --> 0:23:25.520
<v Speaker 1>next week or maybe tomorrow? How do you deal with

0:23:25.600 --> 0:23:31.480
<v Speaker 1>your crazy relatives over Thanksgiving? Because probably every family has

0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:35.960
<v Speaker 1>some and they go they're gotta come itching for a fight.

0:23:36.200 --> 0:23:39.399
<v Speaker 1>And I've been in situations where I sit down and

0:23:39.440 --> 0:23:40.560
<v Speaker 1>within thirty seconds.

0:23:40.600 --> 0:23:42.840
<v Speaker 2>I read the room and I'm like, okay, here it comes.

0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:43.480
<v Speaker 2>It's coming.

0:23:44.200 --> 0:23:48.560
<v Speaker 1>And I'll usually sit back and just wait for them

0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:52.399
<v Speaker 1>to bury themselves and then I'll go in and set

0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:54.600
<v Speaker 1>them straight because I do this professionally.

0:23:54.680 --> 0:23:55.960
<v Speaker 2>This is what I do for a living, and I

0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:57.080
<v Speaker 2>know a lot more than they do.

0:23:57.320 --> 0:24:00.800
<v Speaker 1>But for other people, it's very hard when they're being

0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:03.800
<v Speaker 1>attacked by family members because of that political belief.

0:24:04.000 --> 0:24:06.639
<v Speaker 7>What do you think, well, well, at present, I do

0:24:06.800 --> 0:24:09.359
<v Speaker 7>martial arts for a living, and my teacher has a saying.

0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:12.359
<v Speaker 7>He says, be the temperature, not the thermometer, and so

0:24:12.600 --> 0:24:15.040
<v Speaker 7>I've I think there's a lot of wisdom in that.

0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:18.000
<v Speaker 7>And I read a little piece on Charlie Kirk and

0:24:18.040 --> 0:24:21.240
<v Speaker 7>his techniques and I'm looking trying to do better with that,

0:24:21.359 --> 0:24:23.720
<v Speaker 7>and it said what Charlie did is he always began

0:24:23.840 --> 0:24:26.800
<v Speaker 7>with defines your terms. You know, you know, you know,

0:24:27.080 --> 0:24:30.119
<v Speaker 7>in whatever word you use, please define it so we understand.

0:24:30.600 --> 0:24:32.240
<v Speaker 7>And he always looked for where you could give it,

0:24:32.400 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 7>you know, find an area of the state agreement.

0:24:34.320 --> 0:24:35.840
<v Speaker 3>I agree with this, or I agree with.

0:24:35.840 --> 0:24:39.440
<v Speaker 7>That, and you know, so that that changes the dynamic

0:24:39.520 --> 0:24:41.840
<v Speaker 7>of the conversation. And so I try to do that.

0:24:41.920 --> 0:24:44.240
<v Speaker 7>And indeed, that's kind of my motive in calling today,

0:24:44.240 --> 0:24:47.560
<v Speaker 7>which is a lot of people are upset and how

0:24:47.560 --> 0:24:50.320
<v Speaker 7>that you know, you know, they see all the wild accusations.

0:24:50.640 --> 0:24:53.359
<v Speaker 7>Back on the first No King's Day, I went to

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:58.000
<v Speaker 7>the No King's rally in Southern Pines here and I

0:24:58.040 --> 0:25:00.240
<v Speaker 7>asked the if I could speak on the other point

0:25:00.280 --> 0:25:03.680
<v Speaker 7>of view. They were very upset about President Trump federalizing

0:25:03.720 --> 0:25:06.200
<v Speaker 7>the California National Guard, and I kind of played a

0:25:06.240 --> 0:25:08.919
<v Speaker 7>trick on them. I was wearing a grateful dead t

0:25:09.040 --> 0:25:12.679
<v Speaker 7>shirt that said make America Grateful again, and so that

0:25:12.760 --> 0:25:16.560
<v Speaker 7>got them the lower their garden. I said, yeah, here's

0:25:16.560 --> 0:25:19.560
<v Speaker 7>my grateful bad t shirt. My constitutional law professor was

0:25:19.640 --> 0:25:22.920
<v Speaker 7>Ruth Vader Ginsburg Gay, and I've got good news for

0:25:23.000 --> 0:25:26.280
<v Speaker 7>you. You're wrong. I've read the statute and what President Trump

0:25:26.359 --> 0:25:28.320
<v Speaker 7>is doing as legal and they didn't quite know what

0:25:28.320 --> 0:25:31.120
<v Speaker 7>to do with me. But you know, what I want

0:25:31.160 --> 0:25:34.920
<v Speaker 7>to get to today is about the Venezuelan thing.

0:25:35.040 --> 0:25:36.160
<v Speaker 3>As I looked.

0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:37.960
<v Speaker 7>Into things a bit, I have a bit of a background,

0:25:38.040 --> 0:25:41.639
<v Speaker 7>and so it starts with Article one, Section eight, Claws

0:25:41.800 --> 0:25:46.119
<v Speaker 7>ten of the Constitution, which gives Congress the power to

0:25:46.200 --> 0:25:49.840
<v Speaker 7>define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high

0:25:49.840 --> 0:25:53.880
<v Speaker 7>seas and offenses against the law of nations. An example

0:25:53.920 --> 0:25:56.760
<v Speaker 7>of that would be the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act

0:25:56.840 --> 0:26:00.680
<v Speaker 7>forty six USC. Seventy fifty and sequence ran this by

0:26:00.680 --> 0:26:03.159
<v Speaker 7>a friend of mine who is a special agent for

0:26:03.240 --> 0:26:05.440
<v Speaker 7>the DEA to make sure I was getting this right.

0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:08.879
<v Speaker 7>And you know, it lays out the procedure. Is the

0:26:08.960 --> 0:26:13.159
<v Speaker 7>vessel in question an American flag, is it a foreign flag,

0:26:13.480 --> 0:26:16.960
<v Speaker 7>is it a state? Is it unflagged entirely? And so

0:26:17.040 --> 0:26:20.879
<v Speaker 7>there's all kinds of processes and so forth. But the

0:26:20.920 --> 0:26:24.840
<v Speaker 7>Supreme Court's rule that the jurisdiction on the high seats

0:26:24.920 --> 0:26:29.160
<v Speaker 7>can be defined even without violence and predation of piracy,

0:26:29.200 --> 0:26:32.399
<v Speaker 7>which would seem to be applicable here. And so you know,

0:26:32.880 --> 0:26:36.119
<v Speaker 7>everybody is seen over the years, or the drug boats

0:26:36.119 --> 0:26:38.639
<v Speaker 7>are stopped and so forth. But where we're going here

0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:44.680
<v Speaker 7>is with what President Trump did with his declaration of

0:26:44.720 --> 0:26:49.399
<v Speaker 7>the marcocartels. As here I have what was the exact

0:26:49.640 --> 0:26:52.800
<v Speaker 7>that it was back in January, I think, and so

0:26:52.920 --> 0:26:57.159
<v Speaker 7>the r the yeah, January twenty fifth, And so with

0:26:57.320 --> 0:27:00.000
<v Speaker 7>that we go into a different legal category, which is

0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 7>transition to counter terrorism mode. And so that is going

0:27:04.040 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 7>to tap into the existing authorized use of military forces,

0:27:08.040 --> 0:27:09.960
<v Speaker 7>such as the one in two thousand and one, which

0:27:10.000 --> 0:27:12.280
<v Speaker 7>have been affirmed by the courts an extent to non

0:27:12.320 --> 0:27:16.320
<v Speaker 7>state actors posing imminent threats. So, for example, think of

0:27:16.400 --> 0:27:20.160
<v Speaker 7>all the hits that President Obama did with the drones.

0:27:20.800 --> 0:27:24.359
<v Speaker 7>And so the DOJ's assertion is that the emminent scrap

0:27:24.760 --> 0:27:27.600
<v Speaker 7>for Article fifty one of the UN Charter is the

0:27:27.640 --> 0:27:30.800
<v Speaker 7>American death resulting from the doug trade, and the territorial

0:27:30.840 --> 0:27:35.120
<v Speaker 7>invasion or a congressional war declaration is not required.

0:27:35.760 --> 0:27:37.680
<v Speaker 1>The press, Well, that's a good point about you making

0:27:37.720 --> 0:27:42.960
<v Speaker 1>about Obama and the drone strikes. I have a really

0:27:43.000 --> 0:27:47.000
<v Speaker 1>great story that I've never told, and I'm not sure

0:27:47.040 --> 0:27:50.320
<v Speaker 1>when i'll tell it, but I'll tell it one day. Linda,

0:27:50.359 --> 0:27:53.600
<v Speaker 1>you know exactly what story I'm telling talking about And

0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:56.760
<v Speaker 1>on a scale of one tool one hundred, how great

0:27:56.840 --> 0:27:57.600
<v Speaker 1>is that story.

0:27:57.960 --> 0:27:58.640
<v Speaker 2>It's a great one.

0:27:58.640 --> 0:28:00.879
<v Speaker 4>That's why it's untold. Your whole it for the right moment.

0:28:01.280 --> 0:28:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'm holding it because I don't want to draw

0:28:05.160 --> 0:28:08.080
<v Speaker 1>attention to the underlying issue behind it.

0:28:09.200 --> 0:28:12.560
<v Speaker 2>And you know, let's just put it this way.

0:28:13.160 --> 0:28:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Had to do with a threat against me and my family,

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:17.480
<v Speaker 1>but I'll save that for another day.
